"But this characterization confuses IAâs practices with traditional library lending of print books. IA does not perform the traditional functions of a library; it prepares derivatives of Publishersâ Works and delivers those derivatives to its users in full. That Section 108 allows libraries to make a small number of copies for preservation and replacement purposes does not mean that IA can prepare and distribute derivative works en masse and assert that it is simply performing the traditional functions of a library." Hachette Book Group, Inc. v. Internet Archive, No. 23-1260, at 31 (2nd Cir. Sept. 4, 2024).

Industrial Steel & Glass Set
Published: 1-30-2024 | Updated: 9-8-2024 SUMMARY A 20-piece steel and glass set for industrial builds. Mix and match as needed with move objects on/off and grid on/off cheats. Objects are 1-tile, visible from hood view, and need to be combined with other objects if you want to prevent rain, snow, and sims from intersecting them.
DETAILS Requires all EPs/SPs. §300 | Build > Architecture You need the BBNiche1Master (Buggybooz, 2012), Roofing Repository, and Glass Repository â available in the Repository Pack (Simmons, 2023). Objects are meant to be used with 1-story walls (or higher). **I decimated the frames a bit to lower poly count. Please forgive minor imperfections â but if you notice serious holes/errors in the meshes, let me know.
ITEMS Base 001 (724 poly) Base 001 Corner (878 poly) Base 002 (938 poly) Base 003 (1178 poly) Corner Niche (20 poly) Roof 001 (902 poly) Roof 001 Corner (1038 poly) Roof 001 (Long) (828 poly) Roof 002 (841 poly) Roof 002 Corner (967 poly) Roof 003-A (704 poly) Roof 003-B (706 poly) Roof 003-C (704 poly) Roof 003-D (706 poly) Roof 003 Corner (870 poly) Roof Niche 001 (33 poly) Roof Niche 002 (33 poly) Wall Deco 001 (108 poly) Wall Deco 002 (216 poly) Window (Deco) (572 poly)
DOWNLOAD (choose one) from SFS | from MEGA *collection file included
GRAPHIC GLASS ADD-ONS from SFS | from MEGA *separate collection file for add-ons included
BUILDING TIPS If you want them to function like walls, combine them with invisible walls, fences, windows, etc. You may need to use the grid on/off cheat to move pieces slightly outside of a four-walled room. Otherwise, the game will consider the object âinsideâ the room and it will go dark. Fencing is recommended when placing floor tiles directly above the pieces to reduce flickering. Also, you can fill gaps with Roof Niche 001/002, Wall Deco 001/002, and the Corner Niche.

Hi! I really like your stats! I was browsing your character stats published in January 2024, and I was surprised by the fact that Wanda Maximoff didn't appear in the list. I checked, and there are ~38.000 public works under her tag. Did I miss her on the list? In any case, I just wanted to let you know, if it may be useful. Thank you for your great work!
Hey, thanks for the compliment and for the great question! :) I went back and checked my January big fandom/character/ship stats and also the underlying character data, and you're not wrong! Wanda is missing, and so are others. I'm going to post graphs with data about Wanda plus a bunch more missing characters -- and some missing ships! -- shortly. But here, let me explain how some characters inadvertently got left out.
Until recently, there was no way of directly finding the top characters or ships across all of AO3. Now there is a Tag Search feature (edit: sort by usage) that allows you to do so (though, as I posted about earlier, it has some limitations). But because I didn't have access to that method until recently, I used to instead do the following:
Find all fandoms with 10K+ works. (tutorial)
Combine the top 10 characters (and ships) listed in the Sort & Filter sidebar for each of those big fandoms.
Find out how many works each of those characters (and ships) have, and make my top characters / top ship lists from that data.
This worked well for many popular characters and ships. However, for really huge fandoms with lots of popular characters, like MCU, it misses a lot of big tags. My hope was that most of the characters that were missed in a giant fandom like MCU would show up in the top 10 list of some other popular fandom. E.g., Pepper Potts isn't in the top 10 characters listed in the Sort & Filter sidebar for the "Marvel Cinematic Universe" tag, but she is in the top 10 for the tag "Iron Man (Movies)." However, Wanda is an example of where this didn't work out. The WandaVision fandom didn't have 10K works, so it didn't make my list of fandoms in step 1 -- and Wanda wasn't in the top 10 for any fandoms with 10K+ works. So I just missed her altogether despite the fact that she appears in more fanworks than other characters in my list.
I will use Tag Search in future years and hopefully avoid this issue. That method would have caught Wanda -- and when I used that method as a starting point earlier this week (and then did follow up work to address the limitations of Tag Search), Wanda came in #108 out of all AO3 character tags! I'll share the resulting data that includes the previously missing characters in a bit. :)

The preview for Season 2, Episode 108 of ENNEAD by Mojito is up in Korean!
Ways to read the Korean raws
If you'd like more episode previews, Witchcomics, one of the official Korean publishers, typically puts out episode previews on their twitter within around 24-48 hours prior to new episode releases. Often it's actually closer to release, within a few hours.
Season 2, Episode 108 should be up in Korean on 19 November 2024, around 22:00 KST!
Mojito has announced that ENNEAD in Korean will go on hiatus after the release of Season 2, Episode 108 until it returns on 20 December 2024 with Season 2, Episode 109. As all translations are behind the Korean, they will likely keep going until they hit Season 2, Episode 108, and then take a break to mimic the Korean, as has happened in the past.
There are differences between the uncensored and censored versions of Season 2, Episode 107 and 108 if you want to see everything!
The English translation of ENNEAD is 8 episodes behind the Korean. Season 2, Episode 100 should be up on 20 November 2024, around 00:00 ET (mature/uncensored version and censored version)! Here's a guide for using Tappytoon and unlocking episodes for free! Season 2, Episode 101 should be up on 30 November 2024, around 00:00 ET! For some reason there will apparently be a double update, so Season 2, Episode 102 should also be up in English on 30 November 2024!
Other stuff in the fandom recently:
Good Smile/Orange Rouge released Seth, Horus, and Osiris plushies for pre-order, with release in mid-2025!
Primaniacs has started selling character-themed perfume for Seth, Horus, and Osiris! It's only being sold in their shop in Ginza and shipped domestically, but if you have a proxy, you should be able to get it!
ENNEAD Volumes 1-4 are available for order in English, and 5-6 are available for pre-order! Volume 5 releases 18 March 2025, and volume 6 releases 22 July 2025! (Penguin has all 6 volumes listed)
ACO's audio drama adaptation of season 1 is fully available to purchase digitally episode by episode. You need to buy the whole thing to get the soundtrack.

by Dion J. Pierre
During Wednesdayâs interview with the Algemeiner, Davidai defended his approach as a genuine expression of grief and concern for the welfare of Jewish students.
âPeople are free to see exactly the videos and see, you know, what did or did not happen and judge for themselves,â he said. âThat is why I call this a clear act or retaliation. My lawyers got on a phone call with them on Oct. 7 [of this year] and were told that the university is going to suspend my ability to be on campus. On that day, the university found that the most important thing is to remove me from campus. I am, to the best of my knowledge, the only professor who has been removed from campus since Oct. 7 [2023].â
Davidai went on to point to faculty conduct which has been covered by The Algemeiner, including Columbia professor Joseph Massad publishing in Electronic Intifada an essay cheering Hamasâs atrocities as âawesomeâ and describing men who paraglided into a music festival to kill young people as âthe air force of the Palestinian resistance.â
Davidai continued, âThe only person who was removed from campus is the one that exposed the chief operating officerâs antisemitic problem. And I say this, you know, I donât know if he is or isnât an antisemite. I do know that heâs awfully comfortable with antisemitism and that he has an antisemitism problem.â
According to Columbia University, the campus ban, which does not affect Davidaiâs compensation or employment status, was prompted by âthreats of intimidation, harassment, or other threatening behavior.â
Samantha Slater, a university spokesperson, continued: âColumbia has consistently and continually respected Assistant Professor Davidaiâs right to free speech and to express his views. His freedom of speech has not been limited and is not being limited now. Columbia, however, does not tolerate threats of intimidation, harassment, or other threatening behavior by its employees. Because Assistant Professor Davidai repeatedly harassed and intimidated university employees in violation of university policy, we have temporarily limited his access to campus while he undertakes appropriate training on our policies governing the behavior of our employees.â
This latest clash between Davidai and Columbia University comes during what has been widely described as an unprecedented âcrisisâ at the school which, since Oct. 7, 2023, has undermined its credibility with the public and drawn the scrutiny of federal lawmakers.
In April, an anti-Zionist group occupied Hamilton Hall, forcing then-university president Minouche Shafik to call on the New York City Police Department (NYPD) for help, a decision she hesitated to make and which led to over 108 arrests. However, according to documents shared in August by the US House Committee on Education and the Workforce, 18 of the 22 students slapped with disciplinary charges for their role in the incident remain in âgood standingâ despite the universityâs earlier pledge to expel them. Another 31 of 35 who were suspended for illegally occupying the campus with a âGaza Solidarity Encampmentâ remain in good standing too.
In August, Shafik resigned as president of the university, and just two months prior, in June, its legal counsel reached an out of court settlement with a student who accused administrators of neglecting their obligation to foster a safe learning environment during the final weeks of last spring semester. While stopping short of admitting guilt, the settlement virtually conceded to the plaintiff her argument that the campus was unsafe for Jewish students, agreeing to provide her and others âSafe Passage Liaisonsâ tasked with protecting them from racist abuse and violence.
Amid this cluster of scandals and conflagrations, Davidai has allegedly received a lionâs share of the universityâs attention. Last semester, it launched an investigation of his conduct, which he called a persecution that âreveals the depths of its hostility towards its Jewish community.â He has since retained counsel to guard his rights and prevent being bulldozed by one of the wealthiest and powerful universities in the world. Despite his troubles, however, he told The Algemeiner on Wednesday that Columbia is redeemable.

A devastating population collapse that decimated stone age farming communities across northern Europe 5,000 years ago may have been driven by an outbreak of the plague, according to research.
The cause of the calamity, known as the Neolithic collapse, has long been a matter of debate.
Studies based on DNA from human bones and teeth excavated from ancient burial tombs in Scandinavia â seven from an area in Sweden called Falbygden, one from coastal Sweden close to Gothenburg and one from Denmark â now suggest that disease played a central role.
The remains of 108 people â 62 males, 45 females and one undetermined â were studied. Eighteen of them, or 17%, were infected with plague at the time of death.
The researchers were able to chart the family tree of 38 people from Falbygden across six generations, spanning about 120 years. Twelve of them, or 32%, were infected with plague. Genomic findings indicated that their community experienced three distinct waves of an early form of plague.
The researchers reconstructed full genomes of the different strains of the plague-causing bacterium Yersinia pestis responsible for these waves. They determined that the last one may have been more virulent than the others, and they identified traits indicating the disease could have spread from person to person to cause an epidemic.
âWe learned that the Neolithic plague is an ancestor to all later plague forms,â said Frederik Seersholm, a geneticist at the University of Copenhagen and lead author of the research, published in the journal Science.
A later form of this same pathogen caused the Justinian Plague of the sixth century AD and the 14th-century Black Death that ravaged Europe, north Africa and the Middle East. Because the strains circulating during the Neolithic decline were much earlier versions, the plague may have produced different symptoms than those in the epidemics millennia later.
The study demonstrated that the plague was abundant and widespread in the area examined.
Martin Sikora, who is also a geneticist at the University of Copenhagen and a co-author of the report, said: âThis high prevalence of plague indicates that plague epidemics played a substantial role in the Neolithic decline in this region.
âIndeed, it seems plausible that the decline seen in other parts of Europe was also in some way affected by plague. We do already have evidence for plague in other megalithic sites in different parts of northern Europe. And seeing how prevalent it was in Scandinavia, I would expect a similar picture to emerge once we study these other megaliths with the same resolution.â
The Neolithic or new stone age involved the adoption of farming and animal domestication in place of a roving hunter-gatherer lifestyle. The Neolithic population crash in northern Europe occurred from about 3300BC to 2900BC. By that time, cities and sophisticated civilisations had already arisen in places such as Egypt and Mesopotamia.
The populations of Scandinavia and north-western Europe ultimately disappeared entirely, replaced by people known as the Yamnaya who migrated from a steppe region spanning parts of present-day Ukraine. They are the ancestors of modern northern Europeans.
âUp until now, multiple scenarios have been suggested that might explain the Neolithic decline: war or simple competition with steppe-related populations who became prevalent after the Neolithic decline; an agricultural crisis leading to widespread famine; and various diseases, including plague,â Seersholm said. âThe challenge was that only a single plague genome had been identified before, and it was not known whether the disease was able to spread within a population of humans.â
The DNA evidence also offered insight into the social dynamics of these communities, showing that men often had children with multiple women and that the women were brought in from neighbouring communities. The women appeared to be monogamous.
âMultiple reproductive partners could mean several wives. It could also mean men were allowed to find a new partner if they became widowers or they had mistresses,â Seersholm said. {read}

"More than half of authors (54%) responding to a survey by The Bookseller on their experiences of publishing their debut book have said the process negatively affected their mental health. Though views were mixed, just 22% of the 108 respondents to the survey described a positive experience overall with their first publication.
Of the surveyâs respondents, 61% primarily wrote adult fiction, followed by 19% non-fiction and 17% childrenâs fiction. Around half of respondents (51%) had been published by an independent publisher while 48% were published by one of the Big Four (Penguin Random House, HarperCollins, Pan Macmillan and Hachette). The remaining 1% selected âotherâ and were a mix of self-published authors and âhybrid publishingâ."

Published: 7-14-2024 | Updated: N/A SUMMARY 100 posters, tags, and area signs to organize sale items on your commercial lots. Customize poster images, infographics, and barcodes/currency labels. Labels are color-coded in Simlish and English to make sorting objects easier: COOK (white label/for cookables, ingredients), DRINK (red label/ for edible beverages), EAT (pink label/for edible foods), GROW (green label/ for harvestables), HEAL (orange label/for functional medicines, motive boosters), CRAFT (brown label/for craftables, ingredients), STOCK (yellow label/for stockable foods, supplies), USE (blue label/for all other functional items), VIEW (gray label/for deco only items), and âotherâ (black and purple/barcode). These are general deco items, so you donât have to sort by function/color unless you want to.
DETAILS Pets EP or higher. Cost: $3 | Environment: +1 | Buy > Deco > Wall Hangings/Sculptures (some signs donât have to be placed on walls) You need my Poster Pack (Simmons, 2024) for all poster recolors. Sale Poster 7 (barcodes/currencies), and Ceiling Sign Info 4 (infographics) â are also REQUIRED. Recommended textures sizes for new recolors are 512x512 (poster graphics) and 512x128 (bar codes/currencies, infographics). Simlish text is ideal since images may be reversed on the back side of some objects, or slightly stretched. *Thumbnails for the BACK side of the posters may not generate accurately in the catalog (default game quirk). Make sure you can see the back side onscreen when recoloring. Finally, youâll likely need âmoveobjects on/offâ and âsnaptogrid on/offâ cheats when placing some items.
ITEMS 11 ceiling signs (160-440 poly, poster images on signs 1-6 appear on back side). 11 standing signs (188-440 poly) 3 curved standing signs (548 poly) 10 wall signs (220-224 poly) 5 curved wall signs (874-876 poly) 3 curved/winged signs (1072 poly) 7 hanging signs (269 poly) 6 Instore Mini Billboards (4t2 conversion by NekoSayuri, 2018; EA; 116 poly) 5 Lilâ Business Chalkboards (4t2 conversion by itsnotdissimilar, 2016; EA; 128 poly) 7 framed posters (64 poly) 5 unframed posters (12 poly) 4 taped, unframed posters (108 poly) 3 unframed, wrinkled posters (18 poly) 3 wrinkled tags (34 poly) 3 smooth tags (155 poly, poster images appear reversed on back side) 3 info/barcode tags (4-60 poly) 6 easel signs (512 poly) 6 sales card on stands (card mesh by Cathee, 2008; 40 poly).
DOWNLOAD (choose one) from SFS | from MEGA *collection file included
COMPATIBILITY I recommend using Shift Everything (Lamare, 2022) or Object Freedom 1.02 (Fway, 2023) to enable floor-to-ceiling shiftability for all objects. This will also minimize shadow issues when shifting the signs. Some signs show a small gap between the frame and poster when viewed at close range.

The Phoenix Saga / Uncanny X-Men 101 - 108, 125 / Published: July 1976 - June 1979 / Artist: Dave Cockrum
Technically Phoenix Saga is 101 - 108 but worth including 125 for the cover.

After Israel rescued four Hamas hostages over the weekend, Israel Defense Forces said that three detainees had been held in an apartment belonging to Abdalla al-Jamal. Al-Jamal, who was killed in the raid that liberated Almog Meir Jan, 22, Andrey Kozlov, 27, and Shlomi Ziv, 41, had been a correspondent for The Palestine Chronicle. Since October 7, al-Jamal had published 16 stories for the Chronicle, an English-language news website and nonprofit registered in Mountlake Terrace, Washington, which has featured contributions from prominent progressive American intellectuals such as Noam Chomsky.
And al-Jamalâs articles read like a parody of Palestinian propaganda.Â
âCries of Gaza Survivors: When Will We Rescue Our Children from Under the Rubble?â blares one headline. âActions, Not Words,â featuring interviews with local Gazans pleading with Hezbollah to increase attacks on northern Israel, is another. For one of his last stories, al-Jamal covered survivors of what his outlet called the âNuseirat School Massacre.â A Gazan named Ibrahim Ayad said that Israelâs strikes on the building that harbored between twenty and thirty terrorists were âthe very definition of genocide.â Photo of Abdallah Al Jamal shared by The Palestine Chronicle. ( @PalestineChron via X)
In an obituary, the Chronicle wrote that al-Jamal (who wrote a total of 107 stories) had contributed on a volunteer basis. But if the Chronicle ever paid al-Jamal for his work, they could be in violation of U.S. counterterrorism laws preventing any material support or payment to designated terrorist groups like Hamas.Â
Whether or not he was paid, Al-Jamalâs reports offer a window into the slanted coverage of Gaza in the western media. If one wonders why it always seems that every building hit by Israel is a hospital and every casualty is a child or a woman, the story of a journalist with a side hustle as a hostage guard provides some answers.Â
The Committee to Protect Journalists has said 108 reporters and media workers have been killed so far in the Gaza war. As the story of al-Jamal shows, the definition of âjournalistâ in a place like Gaza is loose to say the least. And yet that statistic has been recycled many times over since the war began, painting the picture of Israel as a criminal regime.
Hamasâs most effective weapon is the warâs high body count. According to the Hamas-controlled Gaza Ministry of Health, more than 36,000 Palestinians have perished since the war began. Thatâs more than thirty times the approximately 1,200 people slaughtered by Hamas in Israel on October 7. Â
The Gaza Ministry of Health, like all branches of Gazaâs local government, is controlled by Hamas. And yet very few mainstream journalists have expressed skepticism about the statistics it publishes. During Israelâs raid, which freed four hostages, several outlets focused on the number of civilians that allegedly died in the process. One BBCÂ headline, for example, said: âGaza Health Ministry Says Israeli Hostage Rescue Killed 274 Palestinians.â
But recently, a Western report has cast doubt on the accuracy of one of Hamasâs key facts, namely that â70 percentâ of Palestinian casualties in the war are women and children.
