HOWLAND - Unusually high Penobscot River water levels slightly dislodged an erosion control blanket last week but otherwise did no damage to the former tannery building site, Town Manager Jane Jones said Friday.
Set down on the site in mid-December, the more than 30-foot-wide blanket runs about the entire length of the riverbank bordering the site and did a pretty good job of keeping the bank intact.

Question: Thank you for your "Chemical-Free Lawn" article in the Sept. 17 Tribune-Review. In the beginning of July, I had my front lawn professionally landscaped. It was suggested to me to pay extra to have a straw blanket on top of the hydroseeding to aid in moisture control and also help with keeping the grass seed a more constant temperature.

If the system poses difficult entry barriers to creators, imposes demanding impediments on intermediaries, or inflicts burdensome conditions and hurdles on readers, then the system fails to achieve at least some of its purposes. The current U.S. copyright statute is flawed in all three respects. In this Article, I explore how the current copyright system is failing its intended beneficiaries. The foundation of copyright law’s legitimacy, I argue, is built on its evident ...
