U.S., S&P Settle In for Bitter Combat Jeannette Neumann, Evan Perez and Jean Eaglesham Updated Feb. 6, 2013 6:52 a.m. ET The U.S. government wants Standard & Poor's Ratings Services to pay more than $5 billion—roughly what its parent company has earned in the past seven years—for giving its seal of approval to bundles of subprime mortgages that eventually crumbled, costing investors billions and helping sink the economy. The lawsuit, filed in a federal court in Los Angeles, represents the Justice Department's most aggressive move yet to try to hold accountable companies that were at the center of the financial meltdown. While banks and...

Iowa Grapples Wrestling Call Updated Feb. 18, 2013 8:05 p.m. ET The International Olympic Committee's vote last week to eliminate wrestling from the 2020 Games invoked fury in global centers of power like Moscow. And Des Moines. That's right: Iowa. It may not be the center of American politics. But wrestling is so central to Iowa culture that from the governor's office to the congressional delegation, and from both sides of the aisle, Hawkeye State politicians are vowing to fight the IOC...

Somali Pleads Guilty to Supporting Terrorist Groups Devlin Barrett A Somali militant has pleaded guilty to supporting two terrorist groups, federal prosecutors said Monday, more than a year after the secret plea was entered in a New York courtroom. The case of Ahmed Abdulkadir Warsame has been a flash point in the U.S. political debate about the proper approach to terrorism suspects captured abroad. Mr. Warsame, in his mid-20s, was captured by the U.S. military in April 2011 and was held on a Navy...

Time to Concede the Title To Manchester United? Feb. 10, 2013 3:13 p.m. ET Heard on the Pitch: Is the Premier League Championship Race Over? Manchester United MANU -4.52% Manchester United Ltd. Cl A 04/07/14 Dealpolitik: Moelis to Activis... 03/21/14 Tasty Ties in Europe's Champio... 03/03/14 Auditors Draw Some Clients Clo... MANU in all but sealed its 13th Premier League title on Sunday with a 2-0 victory over Everton—and it's only February. The club now sits 12 points clear of defending champion Manchester City at the top of the table with only a dozen games left. And no side has ever squandered a lead that big at this stage of the season since the Premier League began in 1992. In fact, only two teams have held this kind of advantage in the past 20 years: Chelsea, which was already 12 clear at this point on its way to the 2005-2006 title, and United, whose 15-point lead after 26 games set up a comfortable jog to the 2000-2001 crown. United knew it would have the opportunity to tighten its grip on this championship long before it kicked off on Sunday, since Manchester City slumped to a 3-1 defeat against Southampton on Saturday. Then, the team made the most of it against Everton with first-half goals from Ryan Giggs and Robin van Persie. Giggs' goal, incidentally, meant that he has now scored for United in every league season since 1990-1991. Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson said after the game that he was originally going to make seven changes to his lineup to face Everton, especially with a difficult trip to Real Madrid in the Champions League looming on Wednesday. But after seeing the City result, he told Sky Sports, "I thought it became a more important game for us then." Meanwhile, Roberto Mancini, his counterpart at City, has accepted the reality that his team will not be repeating as champion. "I think that now it is very difficult," he said. "I always used to be optimistic and I want to be in this moment, but it is difficult." —Joshua Robinson Undefeated England Side Rules Six Nations Roost Just two weeks into the Six Nations Championship, England's rugby team is already talking about a Grand Slam. After Sunday's 12-6 victory over Ireland, courtesy of four penalties from Owen Farrell, England is the only unbeaten team left and has four points. Four other sides are tied at two, while France, initially the favorite for the tournament, could be headed for the Wooden Spoon after defeats against Italy and Wales. — J.R. Email

With Ad Targeting Plan - WSJ.com WSJ U.S. Business News Facebook Gets Personal With Ad Targeting Plan Vauhini Vara Social-networking Web site Facebook Inc. is quietly working on a new advertising system that would let marketers target users with ads based on the massive amounts of information people reveal on the site about themselves. Eventually, it hopes to refine the system to allow it to predict what products and services users might be interested in even before they have specifically mentioned an area. As the industry watches the Palo Alto, Calif., start-up to see if it can translate its popularity into bigger profits, Facebook has made the new ad plan its top priority, say people familiar with the matter. The plan is at an early stage and could change, but the aim is to unveil a basic version of the service late this fall. People familiar with the plan say Facebook wants to accomplish what Google Inc. goog +0.74% 04/11/14 Heartbleed Bug's 'Voluntary' O... 04/08/14 Turkey Slightly Loosens Grip o... 04/03/14 Mozilla CEO Brendan Eich Steps... goog in did with AdWords, which lets anyone place ads next to search results by buying "keywords" online. It brought in the majority of the search engine's $10.6 billion in revenue last year. A Facebook spokeswoman acknowledged the company is working on an ad system, but declined to provide details. Most users of Facebook treat it as a sort of online scrapbook for their lives -- posting everything from basic information about themselves to photos to calendars of events they plan to attend. They create a social network by linking their own Web pages with the pages of other users they consider online "friends." Facebook already uses some information from users' pages in a rudimentary system that allows advertisers to go online, and starting at $10, buy simple "flyers" that run as boxed ads on the left-hand border of Facebook pages. But for targeting, advertisers are limited to age, gender and location of the user. The new service would let advertisers visit a Web site to choose a much wider array of characteristics for the users who should see their ads -- based not only on age, gender and location, but also on details such as favorite activities and preferred music, people familiar with the matter say. Facebook would use its technology to point the ads to the selected groups of people without exposing their personal information to the advertisers. These ads would show up differently than the banner ads and boxed flyers that appear on the borders of Facebook pages, say people familiar with the plan. Instead, they would be interspersed with items on the "news feed," which is a running list of short updates on the activities of a user's Facebook friends. In addition, the ads would show up on Facebook pages that feature services provided by other companies, one person says. Facebook has already had some success in getting users to notice similar ads created in a separate initiative. Under that program, launched last year, advertisers say they typically spend about $150,000 for a three-month campaign that gives them a special page on Facebook, as well as the news-feed ads. But customizing these campaigns can be a costly process for Facebook, which has to dedicate staffers to the efforts. Facebook hopes allowing advertisers to buy customized ads online will be a less labor-intensive way to take advantage of the personal data people reveal on the site. A key part of this new plan is that Facebook would use an automated system to process transactions instead of requiring advertisers to work with a Facebook representative, people familiar with the plan say. Next year, Facebook hopes to expand on the service, one person says, using algorithms to learn how receptive a person might be to an ad based on readily available information about activities and interests of not just a user but also his friends -- even if the user hasn't explicitly expressed interest in a given topic. Facebook could then target ads accordingly. Getting this right is important for Facebook, which was founded in 2004 by then-Harvard student Mark Zuckerberg and which has become Silicon Valley's latest darling. While the Web site had roughly 30.6 million visitors in July, the company says it needs to do a better job profiting from its huge user base. That's because unlike other hot Web start-ups such as MySpace and YouTube, which were acquired by large Web and media concerns, Facebook wants to stay independent and potentially go public. Last year it stepped away from talks with Yahoo Inc. yhoo +2.29% 04/16/14 Why Alibaba Is a Big Deal 04/15/14 Making Sure the Boss Is the Ri... 04/15/14 Alibaba Flexes Muscles Ahead o... yhoo in and Viacom Inc. via -0.75% Viacom Inc.

The start-up's investors have publicly said they hope to take Facebook public at a valuation approaching $10 billion. That would require the company to generate far more revenues and profits than it currently produces. Finding a way to use people's interests and personal connections to show them relevant ads has "always been the promise of social networking, but we're still waiting to see the big successes," says Debra Aho Williamson, an online-advertising analyst at New York-based eMarketer Inc. Facebook is on track for $30 million in profit this year on $150 million in revenue, say people familiar with the matter. About half of that revenue is expected to come through an ad deal with Microsoft Corp. msft +1.45% 04/15/14 A Price War Erupts in Cloud Se... 04/15/14 To Build Cloud-Services, Some ... 04/15/14 HEARD ON THE STREET: Cloud Inv... msft in that lets Microsoft sell many of the major display ads on Facebook's U.S. site. The deal will likely bring in $200 million to $300 million for Facebook through 2011, and potentially much more if Facebook's traffic grows rapidly, say people familiar with the matter. However, advertisers say the addictive quality of social networking means users are so busy reading about their friends that they hardly notice display ads and, even if they do, are loath to navigate away to an advertiser's site. Advertisers say the percentage of people that click on display ads is lower on Facebook, News Corp.'s NWS -0.67% News Corp Cl B 03/11/14 New York Plaza Hotel's Owner E... 01/23/14 Pearson Plunges After Warning ...

As a result, Facebook has needed to diversify its revenue sources away from just display ads. The new ad plan is being spearheaded by Matt Cohler, vice president of strategy and business operations, and Chamath Palihapitiya, vice president of product marketing and operations, with input from CEO Mr. Zuckerberg, say people familiar with the matter. Facebook's plan, if it works, could be potentially powerful for advertisers. While Google's keyword-targeted ads aim at "demand fulfillment" -- that is, they are triggered by Internet searches conducted by people who are actively looking for something that they want -- Facebook's new ad plan could help advertisers address an area called "demand generation." This involves using available information -- not just from a user but also the activities and interests of his "friends" on the site -- to figure out what people might want before they've specifically mentioned it. "It's about saying, 'We are going to take this information because you've acknowledged that you have an interest in X, Y and Z,'" says David Blum, who oversees the interactive division of Sausalito, Calif., ad agency Butler, Shine, Stern and Partners. But Facebook's new plan faces hurdles. It could upset Microsoft, which is itself trying to build technology to make it easier for advertisers to place targeted ads on Facebook. A Microsoft spokeswoman declined to comment on this issue. While Facebook plans to protect its users' privacy and possibly give them an option to keep certain information completely private, some Facebook users might rebel against the use of their personal information for the company's gain. And the perceptions that targeted ads create can be as much of a problem as the reality. "Most people don't realize how targeting works; it becomes so good that even though it's anonymous, you feel like they know you," says Rishad Tobaccowala, CEO of Publicis Groupe-owned consulting firm Denuo Group. However, he says Facebook needs to be careful in implementing any targeted ad system, lest loyal users "find it creepy." -- Kevin J.

140 U.S. 529 - Williams v. Heard Home140 us 529 williams v. heard 140 US 529 Williams v. Heard 140 U.S. 529 WILLIAMSv.HEARD et al. May 25, 1891. This was an action for money had and received, brought in the supreme judicial court of the commonwealth of Massachusetts for the county of Suffolk by John Heard, Augustine Heard, and Albert F. Heard against their assignees in bankruptcy, to recover the amount of an award made by the court of commissioners of Alabama claims, under the act of congress approved June 5, 1882, (22 St. 98,) on account of war premiums of insurance paid by the pain tiffs during the war of the Rebellion, which award had been paid to the assignees by the United States. The case was entered in the full court, where it was tried upon the following agreed statement of facts: 'The plaintiffs, citizens of the United States, were engaged between April 13, 1861, and April 9, 1865, as partners under the firm name of Augustine Heard and Company, in the business of buying and shipping steamers for China, receiving merchandise from China, and selling the same, and insuring merchandise and vessels. During that period the plaintiffs bore true allegiance to the government of the United States, and, after the sailing of the first Confederate cruiser they made, in the course of their business, certain enhanced payments of insurance, otherwise called payments of premiums for war risks or war premiums, on merchandise and vessels, to an amount exceeding the sum awarded on their account by the court of commissioners of Alabama claims, as hereinafter set forth. On May 31, 1865, the said firm of Augustine Heard and Company was dissolved by the agreement of the members thereof. On August 5, 1875, the plaintiffs were severally adjudicated bankrupts in the United States district court for the district of Massachusetts. On September 11, 1875, assignments in bankruptcy in the usual form were made to the defendants, and on July 20, 1877, the plaintiffs received their discharge in bankruptcy. The said firm and each of the plaintiffs individually were solvent when said firm was dissolved, and all the debts owed by the plaintiffs at the time of their said adjudication in bankruptcy were incurred after said dissolution. The estate of said bankrupts received by the defendants hitherto has been insufficient to pay in full the debts of the bankrupts. In December, 1886, an award was made by the court of commissioners of Alabama claims established under the act of congress approved June 5, 1882, to the defendants as assignees in bankruptcy of the plaintiffs in proceedings in said court to which the plaintiffs in his action were parties, on account of the said payments of war premiums by the plaintiffs, and was in part paid to the defendants by the United States. Of the sum so awarded and paid there remains in the hands of the defendants, after paying the reasonable expenses of prosecuting the claim before said court of commissioners and collecting the award, the sum of thirteen thousand six hundred and twelve and 85-100 ($13,612.85) dollars. The amount of the Geneva award remaining unappropriated was insufficient to pay the war premium awards in full. The treaty of Washington, between the United States and Great Britain, promulgated July 4, 1871; the decisions rendered by the tribunal of arbitration at Geneva, and the final decision and award made by said tribunal on September 18, 1872; the acts of congress of june 23, 1874, and june 5, 1882, re-spectively, creating and re-establising the court of commiSsioners of alabama claims; the several acts of congress relating to the said courts and the payment of their awards,—are to be treated as facts in this case, and may be referred to at the argument. No controversy or question exists between the parties as to the proportions in which the several plaintiffs are entitled, if at all, to the sum recovered, or as to the distribution of the same; and it is agreed that, if upon the foregoing facts the plaintiffs are entitled to recover, judgment is to be entered for them and the case is to stand for the assessment of damages; otherwise judgment for the defendants. It is further agreed that in either event the expenses of this action and reasonable counsel fees to each party may be paid out of the fund in the defendants' hands.' There was a judgment for the plaintiffs, two of the judges dissenting, (146 Mass. 545, 16 N. E. Rep. 437,) the rescript being entered April 25, 1888. By agreement damages were assessed at $10,000, and in accordance therewith judgment for that amount was entered on the 5th of June, 188. To review that judgment this writ of error was prosecuted. One of the defendants having died and the other having resigned his trust, the present plaintiff in error was appointed assignee, and he thereafter regularly entered his appearance in the case. Moses Williams and Chas. A. Williams, for plaintiff in error. H. W. Putnam, for defendants in error. LAMAR, J. The single question on the merits of the case is whether, at the date of their adjudication in bankruptcy, the claim of the defendants in error for war premiums passed to their assignees in bankruptcy, as a part of their estate. As preliminary to the discussion of the merits of the case, it is urged by the defendants in error that this is not a federal question, and that therefore the writ of error should be dismissed. We do not think, however, that this contention can be sustained. Both parties claim the proceeds of the award, the defendants in error asserting that it did not pass to their assignees in bankruptcy under section 5044 of the Revised Statutes, and the plaintiff in error insisting that the claim was a part of their estate at the date of their adjudication in bankruptcy, and did pass to the assignees under that section of the Revised Statutes. The assignee's claim to the award is based on that section of the statutes, and, as the state court decided against him, this court has jurisdiction under section 709, Rev. St., to review that judgment, for the decision of the state court was against a 'right' or 'title' claimed under a statute of the United States, within the meaning of that section. The case upon the merits is more difficult. There is high authority in the state courts in support of the judgment of the court below. The same general question had arisen in New York, in Maryland, and in Maine, and in each instance the decision has been, like the one we are reviewing, against the assignee. See Taft v. Marsily, 120 N. Y. 474, 24 N. E. Rep. 926; Brooks v. Ahrens, 68 Md. 212, 12 Atl. Rep. 19; and Kingsbury v. Mattocks, 81 Me. 310, 17 Atl. Rep. 126. But as the question is one arising under the bankruptcy statute of the United States, we cannot rest our judgment upon those adjudications alone, however persuasive they may be. By the treaty of Washington, concluded May 8, 1871, between the United States and Great Britain, and proclaimed July 4, 1871, (17 St. 863,) it was provided that, in order to settle the differences which had arisen between the United States and Great Britain respecting claims growing out of depredations committed by the Alabama and other designated vessels which had sailed from British ports upon the commerce and navy of the United States, which were generically known as the 'Alabama Claims,' those claims should be submitted to a tribunal of arbitration called to meet at Geneva, in Switzerland. The claims presented to that tribunal on the part of the representatives of the United States included those arising out of damages committed by those cruisers, and also indirect claims of several descriptions, and among them claims for enhanced premiums of insurance, or 'war risks,' as they were sometimes called.

415 F. 2d 1 - Reliance Insurance Companies v. National Labor Relations Board Home415 f2d 1 reliance insurance companies v. national labor relations board 415 F2d 1 Reliance Insurance Companies v. National Labor Relations Board 415 F.2d 1 RELIANCE INSURANCE COMPANIES, Petitioner,v.NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD, Respondent. United States Court of Appeals Eighth Circuit. September 4, 1969. Byron J. Beck of Morrison, Hecker, Cozad, Morrison & Curtis, Kansas City, Mo., for petitioner. Robert A. Giannasi, Atty., National Labor Relations Board, Washington, D. C., for respondent; Arnold Ordman, Gen. Counsel, Dominick L. Manoli, Assoc. Gen. Counsel, Marcel Mallet-Prevost, Asst. Gen. Counsel, and Warren M. Davison, Atty., N.L.R.B., on the brief. Before MATTHES, GIBSON and BRIGHT, Circuit Judges. FLOYD R. GIBSON, Circuit Judge. Petitioner, Reliance Insurance Companies, seeks to review and to set aside an order of the National Labor Relations Board entered on December 3, 1968 against Reliance, reported at 173 NLRB 161, finding Reliance in violation of §§ 8 (a)(3) and 8(a)(1) of the Labor Management Relations Act, as amended, 29 U.S.C. § 151 (1965) et seq. The Board files a cross-application for enforcement of its order. The Trial Examiner found that the General Counsel had failed to establish by the preponderance of the evidence the unfair labor practice charges set forth in the complaint and recommended that the complaint be dismissed in its entirety, but the Board in a 2-1 decision found that Reliance had violated §§ 8(a)(3) and 8(a)(1) of the Act by failing to give nondiscriminatory consideration to the application of Robert L. Thomas for employment and § 8(a)(1) of the Act by interrogating Thomas concerning his interest and activity in the Union (American Claims Union, the complainant).1 The broad question raised on appeal is whether there is substantial evidence on the whole record to support the Board's findings. Two distinct issues are presented: (1) whether Reliance's questioning of Thomas about his union activity violates § 8(a)(1) of the Act; and (2) whether Reliance discriminated against Thomas with regard to his application for employment in violation of §§ 8(a)(3) and 8(a)(1) of the Act. A resolution of these issues necessarily involves a comprehensive review of the evidence. The undisputed evidence shows that Reliance, operating nationwide, had an opening in its Kansas City office on May 1, 1967 for a claims adjuster. Reliance unsuccessfully attempted to fill this position by transferring Robert Davidson, a claims employee with 13 years experience, from Grand Island, Nebraska to Kansas City. On May 31,2 Davidson declined the opportunity to transfer. In the interim, on or about May 10, Jack Miller applied for the job. He was told that Reliance would keep his application but would take no action until negotiations with Davidson were concluded. Previously, under date of November 16, 1966, John Folk, vice president in charge of claims, sent a notice to all district claims offices stating (1) he wanted to know about all personnel matters, including proposed hirings, and (2) he would be sending "a profile to follow in recruiting applicants for positions in the Claims Department," and requesting that the offices in the interim advise him about any vacancies so that "This will give us an opportunity to make any suggestions before you commit yourself to any prospective employee. * * * [T]hese instructions apply to all technical claims employees * * * [but not] to clerical employees * * *." In line with the above letter, Reliance established the policy of obtaining claims adjusters with at least three years experience in the claims field or else obtaining novices with no experience and starting them out as trainees; college graduates were desired if available. On June 5, John Travers, claims manager for the Reliance office in Kansas City, Missouri, wrote to Folk of his intention to fill the vacancy with a man possessing a minimum of three years experience in line with Folk's requirement for new claims adjusters, which individual would be passed upon by Folk, and if no such applicant were secured the trainee route would be pursued. This procedure was followed by the Kansas City office in hiring Robert Therlin on June 22. On June 26, Robert L. Thomas who had 2½ years claims experience with the Hartford Insurance Group in Kansas City applied for the opening with Reliance. Thomas had resigned from Hartford in May. Previous to his resignation he was actively involved in an unsuccessful union organizational attempt at Hartford. (The Union lost the representational election held on February 27.) He worked for a short period as a book salesman and in June sought to return to the adjustment field and obtain a position as a claims adjuster. Before applying to Reliance, Thomas consulted with Gary Widmer, president of the American Claims Union, who promised to call Travers and inform him that Thomas was not a rabble-rouser or troublemaker. At the interview of June 26, Thomas presented a resume of his background and when Travers mentioned that he knew Joe Shramek, the regional claims manager of the Hartford Insurance Group, and that he was a friend of his, Thomas's response and Travers' questioning, according to Thomas, was: "* * * I shook my head and smiled. He [Travers] said, `Have you had any problems with Hartford or Mr. Shramek?' I said, `Well Mr. Travers, you know as well as I do we had a union election at Hartford and other than the union I had no problem with Mr. Shramek or the company.'" The interview continued with Travers stating they had a new company policy for hiring men but Travers could not find the letter setting forth the policy. Travers then asked Thomas, "Are you still active in the union, Bob?" Thomas answered he was not necessarily pro-union but he was very active with the Union while at Hartford. At this point the conversation was interrupted by a telephone call from Widmer, who asked Travers to consider Thomas on his merits, which Travers said he would do.3 At the conclusion of Widmer's call the interview continued, according to Thomas, as follows: "I asked `Was that Gary?' He said, `Yes.' Mr. Travers then said, `Well, Bob, unions, I'm very interested in unions and I'm not really against them myself, but as I said before, we've got a new company policy and the man above me, he might not like your being a member.' I said, `Well, Mr. Travers, I would do a good job for you, to the best of my ability, and I'm not here to cause any trouble.' Mr. Travers then said, `Well, we'll put your name in the hopper along with the rest of the men.' and he gave me an application to fill out and I told him I would return it as soon as possible." Thomas took the application form and returned it two or three days later, June 28 or 29 (the record is not clear on the precise date), at which time he had a second interview with Travers. At this time Thomas expressed the view that Travers should have the authority to act on his application without consulting the home office and volunteered the statement, "Well, Mr. Travers, I realize you have to be careful of me because of my union activity." to which Travers replied, "Well, yes, I do." Travers testified he accepted the application and said, "Fine, as I told you in my first interview, I have just started to find a man and I will let you know in due course." Additional brief conversation ensued; Thomas shook hands with Travers and left. Thomas then apparently contacted Widmer and on the following Monday, July 3, the American Claims Union on behalf of Thomas filed the unfair labor practice charges against Reliance and the American Mutual Liability Insurance Company. Several applicants for the position were interviewed by Reliance both before and after the charge was filed. On July 6 or 7, Jack Miller again contacted Reliance to say he was still available for the position. On July 12, Folk sent a memorandum to Travers in which he inquired as to the status of the attempt to fill the job vacancy. On July 13, Travers sent the applications of Thomas and Miller, but none of the other applications, to Folk. Travers said nothing about the Thomas application but recommended the hiring of Miller on the basis of his experience and qualifications for the job. On July 14, Folk ap

760 F. 2d 756 - Duran v. J Elrod Home760 f2d 756 duran v. j elrod 760 F2d 756 Duran v. J Elrod 760 F.2d 756 85 A.L.R.Fed. 291 Dan DURAN, et al., Plaintiffs-Appellees,v.Richard J. ELROD, et al., Defendants-Appellants. Argued April 12, 1985.Decided April 12, 1985.*Opinion April 26, 1985. Ruthanne DeWolfe, Richard Hess, Robert E. Lehrer, Legal Assistance Foundation, Chicago, Ill., for plaintiffs-appellees. Henry A. Hauser, Chief Civil Actions Bureau, Chicago, Ill., for defendants-appellants. Before CUMMINGS, Chief Judge, and POSNER and FLAUM, Circuit Judges. POSNER, Circuit Judge. The administrators of the Cook County (Illinois) Jail appeal from an order refusing to lift, for seven weeks, a provision in a class-action consent decree regulating the living accommodations in the jail. The jail houses people who are awaiting trial on criminal charges because they have been denied bail or (more commonly) have been unable or unwilling to post the amount of cash required to make bail; it also houses convicted defendants en route to a penitentiary to serve their sentence, but they are not involved in this litigation. In 1974 a class action was brought on behalf of the pretrial detainees against the Cook County officials ("County," for short) in charge of the jail. The suit, which charged that conditions in the jail were so harsh, unsafe, and unsanitary as to constitute punishment of pretrial detainees in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment's due process clause, was settled in 1982 by the entry of a consent decree. The decree places numerous restrictions on the jail. Living space, food, exercise, law books, grievances, security, and visits are all regulated by the decree. The decree appoints the John Howard Association, a private (and we add, highly respected) group concerned with prison conditions, to monitor, like a special master, the County's compliance with the decree. One provision of the decree forbids "double bunking" (double occupancy of a cell) in Division I of the jail. Division I was built in 1927, and its cells, even after having been doubled in size as required by another provision of the decree, are only 8 feet by 8 feet in size (64 square feet). In 1983, with the jail population growing rapidly, the County asked the district judge who had approved the decree to modify it to permit double bunking in Division I until the jail was enlarged. The judge (1) denied the motion and (2) ordered the County to release as many pretrial detainees on their own recognizance (that is, without making them put up any bail money) as necessary to keep the jail's population at 4,500 (approximately the number of beds), and to do so in reverse order of the size of their bonds, so that low-bond pretrial detainees would be released before high-bond ones (if the bonds were of equal size, the inmate who had been in jail the longest had to be released first). The County appealed; this court affirmed both the "cap" order and the denial of the motion to modify the decree. Duran v. Elrod, 713 F.2d 292, 297-98 (7th Cir.1983). With the number of people charged with crime in Cook County continuing to grow rapidly, it became impossible to comply with the "cap" order by releasing just inmates awaiting trial on misdemeanor charges. In the first six months of 1984 the County had had to release 6,434 inmates to avoid having to double bunk; in the last six months this number rose to 9,462. Beginning in November 1984 the County began releasing inmates awaiting trial on felony charges, and by March of this year it was apparent that the release of these inmates was a menace to public safety. A study showed that 311 of the 1,474 inmates who had been released on their own recognizance in January pursuant to the district judge's order were accused felons and that by March 12, 53 of the 311 accused felons had become fugitives. Others had been convicted, acquitted (or the charges against them dropped), or otherwise removed from the status of pretrial detainee. Of the 154 accused felons against whom charges were still pending on March 12 (other than the fugitives), 16 had already been arrested for subsequent crimes--10 for felonies and 6 for misdemeanors. They undoubtedly had committed other crimes that had not resulted in arrests, for most crimes are not solved, and most of the accused felons released pursuant to the judge's order have substantial criminal records. This is not because the County willfully selects the most dangerous people to release but because the "cap" order required that those with the lowest bonds be released first, regardless of the nature of the crime or the defendant's record, and because the jail has run out of low-bond inmates to release. To comply with the judge's order the County now is routinely releasing inmates with bonds as high as $5,000 ($500 in cash), even though, as its study shows, many of the released inmates will become fugitives, or commit felonies while awaiting trial, or become fugitives and commit crimes. On March 27 the County filed a motion asking the district judge to modify the consent decree to allow double bunking of accused felons until May 15, when the renovation of an existing building at the jail and the completion of a new one will add 738 new beds. The judge denied the motion, noting that the County had dragged its heels in constructing new facilities to relieve overcrowding and suggesting that the County devise a system for releasing on their own recognizance the least dangerous persons accused of felonies. The County appealed to us, as it was entitled to do under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1292(a)(1) since the judge's order was the refusal to modify an equitable decree. Following oral argument on April 12, we issued an order, effective immediately, reversing the district court's order and granting the modification requested, with the notation that this opinion would follow. From the recital of facts it should be clear that the plaintiffs' first argument--that our previous opinion definitively establishes the lack of merit in the County's request--is itself without merit. The issue before us two years ago was different from the issue today: 1. The decree had been entered only a year before. 2. The modification sought was not limited to a definite time period; the County wanted the prohibition against double bunking postponed until the expansion of the jail was complete--a matter (it has turned out) of years, not weeks. 3. The County had not even begun the construction required to comply with the decree. 4. Many of the inmates being released on their own recognizance could have made bail with less than $100 in cash, see 713 F.2d at 298, and we regarded these inmates as unthreatening. There was no suggestion that accused felons might have to be released, and there was nothing corresponding to the study of flight and recidivism that the County has put in to support its present request to modify. We must therefore consider the merits of that request. A court of equity has the power "to modify an injunction in adaptation to changed conditions though it was entered by consent," United States v. Swift & Co., 286 U.S. 106, 114, 52 S.Ct. 460, 462, 76 L.Ed. 999 (1932), and this regardless of whether there is an express reservation of the power: "A continuing decree of injunction directed to events to come is subject always to adaptation as events may shape the need." Id. Although recent decisions have suggested that a more liberal standard than that laid down in Swift for exercising the power to modify (the standard in Swift is whether there has been "a clear showing of grievous wrong evoked by new and unforeseen conditions," id. at 119, 52 S.Ct. at 464) is appropriate in the case of decrees supervising public institutions, see New York State Ass'n for Retarded Children, Inc. v. Carey, 706 F.2d 956, 970 (2d Cir.1983); Alliance to End Repression v. City of Chicago, 742 F.2d 1007, 1020 (7th Cir.1984) (en banc) (dictum); United States v. City of Chicago, 663 F.2d 1354, 1359-60 (7th Cir.1981) (en banc); Newman v. Graddick, 740 F.2d 1513, 1520-21 (11th Cir.1984); Philadelphia Welfare Rights Organization v. Shapp, 602 F.2d 1114, 1120-21 (3d Cir.1979); but see Rajender v. University of Minnesota, 730 F.2d 1110, 1115-16 (8th Cir.1984) (citing cases), we have no occasion in this case to consider an alternative standard. Even if the Swift standard applies with full force, the district judge's refusal to modify the decree for the short period of time requested by the County must be reversed. Two principles, one having to do with the limits of judicial competence, the other a conventional principle of equity jurisprudence, frame our analysis. 1. Federal judges must always be circumspect in imposing their ideas about civilized and effective prison administration on state prison officials. See Block v. Rutherford, --- U.S. ----, 104 S.Ct. 3227, 3232, 82 L.Ed.2d 438 (1984); Procunier v. Martinez, 416 U.S. 396, 404-05, 94 S.Ct. 1800, 1807, 40 L.Ed.2d 224 (1974); Rhodes v. Chapman, 452 U.S. 337, 351 n. 16, 101 S.Ct. 2392, 2401 n. 16, 69 L.Ed.2d 59 (1981). The Constitution does not speak with precision to the issue of prison conditions (that is an understatement); federal judges know little about the management of prisons; managerial judgments generally are the province of other branches of government than the judicial; and it is unseemly for federal courts to tell a state or city or, as here, a county how to run its prison system. Of course the County agreed to a consent decree which severely limits its freedom of action, but the County is not the state. Federal courts must be wary of entanglement in the intramural struggles of state or local government. 2. When an equity decree affects other people besides the parties to it, the judge must take account of the interest of those people--the public interest--in his decision whether to grant or deny equitable relief. See, e.g., Yakus v. United States, 321 U.S. 414, 440-41, 64 S.Ct. 660, 674-75, 88 L.Ed. 834 (1944); Roland Machinery Co. v. Dresser Industries, Inc., 749 F.2d 380, 388 (7th Cir.1984). This is true whether the judge is being asked to approve a decree, see, e.g., Donovan v. Robbins, 752 F.2d 1170, 1176 (7th Cir.1984), or interpret a decree, see, e.g., Alliance to End Repression v. City of Chicago, supra, 742 F.2d at 1013, or, it seems evident, modify a decree. Therefore, in deciding whether the County had shown a "grievous wrong" due to "new and unforeseen conditions" such as would j

298 US 38 St Joseph Stock Yards Co v. United States 298 US 38 St Joseph Stock Yards Co v. United States 298 U.S. 38 ST. JOSEPH STOCK YARDS CO.v.UNITED STATES et al. Argued March 2, 1936. Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the Western District of Missouri. [Argument of Counsel from pages 38-40 intentionally omitted] Messrs. Ross Dean Rynder and William N. Strack, both of Chicago, Ill., for appellant. [Argument of Counsel from page 40 intentionally omitted] Messrs. Homer S. Cummings, Atty. Gen., and John Dickinson, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellees. Mr. Chief Justice HUGHES delivered the opinion of the Court. This suit was brought by St. Joseph Stock Yards Company to restrain the enforcement of an order of the Secretary of Agriculture fixing maximum rates for the company's services. The District Court composed of three judges dismissed the bill of complaint (11 F.Supp. 322) and appeal lies directly to this Court. 7 U.S.C. § 217 (7 U.S.C.A. § 217); 28 U.S.C. § 47 (28 U.S.C.A. § 47). In October, 1929, the Secretary of Agriculture initiated a general inquiry into the reasonableness of appellant's rates. After hearing, the Secretary prescribed maximum rates which were enjoined by the District Court. St. Joseph Stock Yards Co. v. United States, 58 F.(2d) 290. The Secretary reopened the proceeding and hearing was had in 1933. While the matter was un er consideration, appellant filed in February, 1934, a petition for a further hearing. On May 4, 1934, the Secretary denied the petition and made the order now in question. The validity of the provisions of the Packers and Stockyards Act 1921 (42 Stat. 159, 7 U.S.C. §§ 181—229 (7 U.S.C.A. §§ 181 229)), authorizing the Secretary of Agriculture to prescribe maximum charges for the services of stockyards, has been sustained. Stafford v. Wallace, 258 U.S. 495, 42 S.Ct. 397, 66 L.Ed. 735, 23 A.L.R. 229; Tagg Bros. & Moorhead v. United States, 280 U.S. 420, 50 S.Ct. 220, 74 L.Ed. 524. In this suit appellant attacked the Secretary's order as lacking the support of essential findings, and also as confiscatory, thus violating the Fifth Amendment of the Federal Constitution. The denial of the request for a further hearing was assailed. No additional evidence was introduced in the District Court, and the case was submitted at the final hearing upon the record made before the Secretary. First. The Secretary's Findings.—The findings are elaborate. They include detailed findings with respect to the services rendered by appellant and its rates, the used and useful character of appellant's property, the valuation of used and useful land, the value of appellant's structures on the basis of cost of reproduction new less depreciation, working capital, going concern value, fair value on the basis of the facts found, fair rate of return, reasonable operating expenses (including repairs, depreciation and taxes), necessary revenue, and volume of business. The Secretary found that the existing rates produced revenues in excess of those necessary to pay reasonable expenses and afford a fair return; that 'the schedule of rates and charges now in effect is unreasonable and unjustly discriminatory.' As a guide to his determination of reasonable rates, the Secretary caused an analysis to be made of the books and records of the appellant covering the six-year period from 1927 to 1932. He reached his conclusion in the light of that evidence. Appellant contends that, as a prerequisite to a reduction of rates, it was necessary for the Secretary to find that the rates were unreasonable 'at the time of the hearing,' and that there were no findings to support such a conclusion with respect to the year 1932, the year immediately preceding the hearing. But, in determining whether the existing rates were unreasonable, the Secretary was not confined to evidence as to their operation at the precise time of his hearing, or in the months, or even a year, immediately prior thereto. He was entitled to consider the conditions which then obtained and also to extend his examination over such a reasonable period of past operations as would enable him to make a fair prediction in fixing the maximum rates to be charged in the future. The Secretary had before him the particular conditions which prevailed in the year 1932 and in the selection of the six-year period including that year, and in not taking the year 1932 as a sole criterion we find nothing arbitrary. There are also objections to the failure of the Secretary to make specific findings on certain points of fact, but, so far as the requirement of findings is concerned, we think that the extensive findings that were made adequately supported his order. Second. The Refusal of the Secretary to Reopen the Proceeding.—The hearing was closed on February 16, 1933. In the following January a copy of the proposed order was transmitted to counsel for appellant and opportunity was given to file exceptions. Numerous exceptions were filed, and at the same time (February, 1934) appellant asked for a further hearing upon the ground that there had been such a serious change in conditions affecting the value of the company's property, its income, and the probable receipts of livestock and expenses of its yards, that the record no longer fairly reflected these matters. The application pointed to the Agricultural Adjustment Act of May 12, 1933 (48 § at. 31), the National Industrial Recovery Act of June 16, 1933 (48 Stat. 195), and the Gold Reserve Act of January 30, 1934 (48 Stat. 337)—all as producing changes of which account should be taken. Appellant also alleged that its books and records were available to give the complete results of its operations for the year 1933, which showed a lower net operating income than that stated in the Secretary's proposed report. The Secretary heard argument, made an informal investigation, and denied the application. He was careful to say that, while as a result of his investigation he found no adequate ground for reopening the proceeding, he did not use the facts thus elicited as a part of the record upon which his determination of rates was based. After stating what he deemed to be comparative results of operations in 1933 and in January and February, 1934, the Secretary gave as the general grounds for his action that it was inevitable that in such determinations considerable time must be consumed and that there would be some economic change; that appellant had obtained one rehearing because the first hearing had been followed by a general business depression which adversely affected its gross revenues; that it sought another because since the last hearing there had been a general improvement in those conditions; that in determining the values used as a rate base 'depression or stagnation values' had carefully been avoided and 'normals' used; that the prescribed rates which the Secretary deemed to be fair at that time would, 'as the economic improvement continues, become liberal'; that the matter had been 'in hearing and litigation since the year 1929' and the time had come for decision. The decree of the District Court was filed on May 1, 1935. Despite the opportunity which the suit afforded, the record shows no endeavor on the part of appellant to prove any additional facts as to the conditions which obtained in 1933, or as to its operations in that year or at any time down to the hearing in the District Court, or as to any matter outside the record which had been made before the Secretary. The court concluded that the effect of the legislation of 1933 was speculative; that the difference between the amount which appellant claimed would have been earned under the prescribed rates, if applied to the business of 1933, and the amount found by the Secretary to constitute the reasonable net return, was 'too small to be taken as a guide for a rate'; that, in order 'to gauge the future,' the Secretary had taken six years, 'two of which were deeply affected by the depression,' and that the experience before the Secretary 'was up to ten days before the date of the hearing.' In that view the court decided that the proceeding should not be reopened and that the question of the effects urged by appellants in that relation should await the test of actual experience upon which, if sufficient reasons were shown, the Secretary's order could be challenged. 11 F.Supp. 322, at page 325. We find no error in that conclusion. If it be found that the rates as prescribed were not confiscatory, we see no reason for holding the Secretary's order to be ineffective because of his refusal to reopen the proceeding. United States v. Northern Pacific Railway Company, 288 U.S. 490, 53 S.Ct. 406, 77 L.Ed. 914. Third. The Scope of Judicial Review upon the Issue of Confiscation.—The question is not one of fixing a reasonable charge for a mere personal service subject to regulation under the commerce power, as in the case of market agencies employing but little capital. See Tagg Bros. & Moorhead v. United States, supra, 280 U.S. 420, at pages 438, 439, 50 S.Ct. 220, 74 L.Ed. 524. Here a large capital investment is involved and the main issue is as to the alleged confiscation of that investment. A preliminary question is presented by the contention that the District Court, in the presence of this issue, failed to exercise its independent judgment upon the facts. 11 F.Supp. 322, at pages 326—328. See Ohio Valley Water Co. v. Ben Avon Borough, 253 U.S. 287, 289, 40 S.Ct. 527, 64 L.Ed. 908; Prendergast v. New York Telephone Co., 262 U.S. 43, 50, 43 S.Ct. 466, 67 L.Ed. 853; Bluefield Water Works & Imp. Co. v. Public Service Commission, 262 U.S. 679, 689, 43 S.Ct. 675, 67 L.Ed. 1176; United Railways & Electric Co. v. West, 280 U.S. 234, 251, 50 S.Ct. 123, 74 L.Ed. 390; Tagg Bros. & Moorhead v. United States, supra, 280 U.S. 420, at pages 443, 444, 50 S.Ct. 220, 74 L.Ed. 524; Phillips v. Commissioner, 283 U.S. 589, 600, 51 S.Ct. 608, 75 L.Ed. 1289; Crowell v. Benson, 285 U.S. 22, 60, 52 S.Ct. 285, 76 L.Ed. 598; State Corporation Commission v. Wichita Gas Co., 290 U.S. 561, 569, 54 S.Ct. 321, 78 L.Ed. 500. The District Court thought that the question was still an open one under the Packers and Stockyards Act, and expressed the view that, even though the issue is one of confiscation, the court is bound to accept the findings of the Secretary if they are supported by substantial evidence and that it is not within the judicial province to weigh the evidence and pass upon the issues of fact. The government points out that, notwithstanding what was said by the court upon this point, the court carefully analyzed the evidence, made many specific findings of its own, and in addition adopted, with certain exceptions, the findings of the Secretary. The government insists that appellant thus had an adequate judicial review, and, further, that the case is in equity and comes before the court on appeal, and that from every point of view the clear preponderance of the evidence shows that the prescribed rates were in fact just and reasonable. Hence the government says that the decree should be affirmed, irrespective of possible error in the reasoning of the District Court. See West v. Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Co., 295 U.S. 662, 680, 55 S.Ct. 894, 79 L.Ed. 1640. In view, however, of the discussion in the court's opinion,1 the preliminary question should be considered. The fixing of rates is a legislative act. In determining the scope of judicial review of that act, there is a distinction between action within the sphere of legislative authority and action which transcends the limits of legislative power. Exercising its rate-making authority, the Legislature has a broad discretion. It may exercise that authority directly, or through the agency it creates or appoints to act for that purpose in accordance with appropriate standards. The court does not sit as a board of revision to substitute its judgment for that of the Legislature or its agents as to matters within the province of either. San Diego Land & Town Co. v. Jasper, 189 U.S. 439, 446, 23 S.Ct. 571, 47 L.Ed. 892; Minnesota Rate Cases (Simpson v. Shepard), 230 U.S. 352, 433, 33 S.Ct. 729, 57 L.Ed. 1511, 48 L.R.A.(N.S.) 1151, Ann.Cas.1916A, 18; Los Angeles Gas & Elec. Corp. v. Railroad Commission, 289 U.S. 287, 304, 53 S.Ct. 637, 77 L.Ed. 1180. When the Legislature itself acts within the broad field of legislative discretion, its determinations are conclusive. When the Legislature appoints an agent to act within that sphere of legislative authority, it may endow the agent with power to make findings of fact which are conclusive, provided the requirements of due process which are specially applicable to such an agency are met, as in according a fair hearing and acting upon evidence and not arbitrarily. Interstate Commerce Commission v. Louisville & Nashville R.R. Co., 227 U.S. 88, 91, 33 S.Ct. 185, 57 L.Ed. 431; Virginian Railway Co. v. United States, 272 U.S. 658, 663, 47 S.Ct. 222, 71 L.Ed. 463; Tagg Bros. & Moorhead v. United States, supra, 280 U.S. 420, at page 444, 50 S.Ct. 220, 74 L.Ed. 524; Florida v. United States, 292 U.S. 1, 12, 54 S.Ct. 603, 78 L.Ed. 1077. In such cases the judicial inquiry into the facts goes no further than to ascertain whether there is evidence to support the findings, and the question of the weight of the evidence in determining issues of fact lies with the l gislative agency acting within its statutory authority. But the Constitution fixes limits to the rate-making power by prohibiting the deprivation of property without due process of law or the taking of private property for public use without just compensation. When the Legislature acts directly, its action is subject to judicial scrutiny and determination in order to prevent the transgression of these limits of power. The Legislature cannot preclude that scrutiny or determination by any declaration or legislative finding. Legislative declaration or finding is necessarily subject to independent judicial review upon the facts and the law by courts of competent jurisdiction to the end that the Constitution as the supreme law of the land may be maintained. Nor can the Legislature escape the constitutional limitation by authorizing its agent to make findings that the agent has kept within that limitation. Legislative agencies, with varying qualifications, work in a field peculiarly exposed to political demands. Some may be expert and impartial, others subservient. It is not difficult for them to observe the requirements of law in giving a hearing and receiving evidence. But to say that their findings of fact may be made conclusive where constitutional rights of liberty and property are involved, although the evidence clearly establishes that the findings are wrong and constitutional rights have been invaded, is to place those rights at the mercy of administrative officials and seriously to impair the security inherent in our judicial safeguards. That prospect, with our multiplication of administrative agencies, is not one to be lightly regarded. It is said that we can retain judicial authority to examine the weight of evidence when the question concerns the right of personal liberty. But, if this be so, it is not because we are privileged to perform our judicial duty in that case and for reasons of convenience to disregard it in others. The principle applies when rights either of person or of property are protected by constitutional restrictions. Under our system there is no warrant for the view that the judicial power of a competent court can be circumscribed by any legislative arrangement designed to give effect to administrative action going beyond the lmits of constitutional authority. This is the purport of the decisions above cited with respect to the exercise of an independent judicial judgment upon the facts where confiscation is alleged. The question under the Packers and Stockyards Act is not different from that arising under any other act, and we see no reason why those decisions should be overruled. But this judicial duty to exercise an independent judgment does not require or justify disregard of the weight which may properly attach to findings upon hearing and evidence. On the contrary, the judicial duty is performed in the light of the proceedings already had and may be greatly facilitated by the assembling and analysis of the facts in the course of the legislative determination. Judicial judgment may be none the less appropriately independent because informed and aided by the sifting procedure of an expert legislative agency. Moreover, as the question is whether the legislative action has passed beyond the lowest limit of the permitted zone of reasonableness into the forbidden reaches of confiscation, judicial scrutiny must of necessity take into account the entire legislative process, including the reasoning and findings upon which the legislative action rests. We have said that 'in a question of rate-making there is a strong presumption in favor of the conclusions reached by an experienced administrative body after a full hearing.' Darnell v. Edwards, 244 U.S. 564, 569, 37 S.Ct. 701, 703, 61 L.Ed. 1317. The established principle which guides the court in the exercise of its judgment on the entire case is that the complaining party carries the burden of making a convincing showing and that the court will not interfere with the exercise of the rate-making power unless confiscation is clearly established. Los Angeles Gas & Electric Co. v. Railroad Commission, 289 U.S. 287, 305, 53 S.Ct. 637, 77 L.Ed. 1180; Lindheimer v. Illinois Bell Telephone Co., 292 U.S. 151, 169, 54 S.Ct. 658, 78 L.Ed. 1182; Dayton Power & Light Co. v. Public Utilities Commission, 292 U.S. 290, 298, 54 S.Ct. 647, 78 L.Ed. 1267. A cognate question was considered in Manufacturers' Railway Company v. United States, 246 U.S. 457, 470, 488—490, 38 S.Ct. 383, 392, 62 L.Ed. 831. There, appellees insisted that the finding of the Interstate Commerce Commission upon the subject of confiscation was conclusive, or at least that it was not subject to be attacked upon evidence not presented to the Commission. We did not sustain that contention. Nevertheless, we pointed out that correct practice required that 'in ordinary cases, and where the opportunity is open,' all the pertinent evidence should be submitted in the first instance to the Commission. The Court did not approve the course that was pursued in that case 'of withholding from the Commission essential portions of the evidence that is alleged to show the rate in question to be confiscatory.' And it was regarded as beyond debate that, where the Commission after full hearing had set aside a given rate as unreasonably high, it would require a 'clear case' to justify a court, 'upon evidence newly adduced but not in a proper sense newly discovered,' in annulling the action of the Commission upon the ground that the same rate was so unreasonably low as to deprive the carrier of its constitutional right of compensation. With that statement the Court turned to an examination of the evidence. The principle thus recognized with respect to the weight to be accorded to action by the Commission after full hearing applies a fortiori when the case is heard upon the record made before the Commission or, as in this case, upon the record made before the Secretary of Agriculture. It follows, in the application of this principle, that, as the ultimate determination whether or not rates are confiscatory ordinarily rests upon a variety of subordinate or primary findings of fact as to particular elements, such findings made by a legislative agency after hearing will not be disturbed save as in particular instances they are plainly shown to be overborne. As the District Court, despite its observations as to the scope of review, apparently did pass upon the evidence, making findings of its own and adopting findings of the Secretary, we do not think it necessary to remand the cause for further consideration, and we turn to the other questions presented by the appeal. Fourth. Valuation of Property, Income, Expenses, and Fair Return.—The Secretary found that the fair value of appellant's property, used and useful in its stockyards service, to be $2,743,000. The District Court made certain additions of land which the Secretary had excluded from his appraisal, arriving at a rate base of $2,752,964. The Secretary found 7 per cent. to be a reasonable rate of return, which would mean net earnings of $192,010 on his rate base, or $192,710 on that of the court below. The Secretary estimated that under the prescribed rates appellant's net income available for return upon its investment would be $195,564, or 7.13 per cent. on his valuation. Elaborate briefs have discussed a host of details in attacking and defending these estimates. While we have examined the evidence and appellant's contentions on each point, it is impracticable to attempt in this opinion to state more than our general conclusions. 1. Property Values.—For the purpose of demonstrating that its rates were not unreasonable prior to 1932, appellant state that it adopts the findings of the Secretary in his first decision as to the total value of its property. That value was then fixed at $3,382,148, to which appellant adds the value of certain additional land now found to be used and useful, $329,163, giving a total value, which appellant says is applicable to the years 1927—1931, of $3,711,311. But the first hearing was begun and concluded in December, 1929, and, while the order was not promulgated until July 20, 1931, it was predicated, as the District Court said in reviewing that order, upon the value of the property as of the year 1928 and the volume of business during that year. St. Joseph Stockyards Co. v. United States, 58 F.(2d) 290, at page 291. Appellant insisted in its bill of complaint in the first suit that the Secretary's denial of its request for reopening was arbitrary, as economic conditions had materially changed since 1928. The District Court, applying the principle of our decision in Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway Co. v. United States, 284 U.S. 248, 52 S.Ct. 146, 76 L.Ed. 273, held that a rehearing should have been granted. 58 F.(2d) 290, at pages 296, 297. The Secretary then vacated his prior order and reopened the proceeding. There is no question of res judicata. Tagg Bros. & Moorhead v. United States, supra, 280 U.S. 420, at page 445, 50 S.Ct. 220, 74 L.Ed. 524. Compare Clark's Ferry Bridge Co. v. Public Service Commission, 291 U.S. 227, 233, 54 S.Ct. 427, 78 L.Ed. 767. Appellant could not obtain an examination of the changed conditions with respect to its income and outlays in the period after 1928 and at the same time insist that the change in values due to the depression should be ignored. Appellant provides the physical facilities for a market and renders various services in connection with livestock. It supplies office buildings, docks for loading and unloading, 'chute pens,' 'sales pens' and alleys, and the various appurtenances for the proper care of livestock that are essential to its service in warehousing. The property thus consists of land and various structures. Value of Land.—The Secretary found that of the land owned by appellant there were 4,410,361 square feet used and useful in its stockyards services. The District Court added 122,041 square feet. 11 F.Supp. 322, 336. Appellant complains, on this appeal, of the exclusion of the property known as the 'Transit House' and of the value assigned to the property which was included in the rate base. The 'Transit House' is a commercial hotel (occupying 15,805 square feet of land) with a limited patronage supplied by shippers and drivers of trucks. Appellant claims that the land and building are worth $120,143. Appellant points to the ruling of the Secretary in the first proceeding that the hotel should be considered a part of the used and useful propererty in the stockyards service. In his second decision, now under review, the Secretary found that the hotel was constructed many years ago when transportation facilities between the stockyard area and the 'main-uptown' area were limited; that at the time of the first hearing the hotel was leased for a rental of $1,200 a year, and that the business had not warranted an increase, as provided in the lease, up to the time of the second hearing; that the decadence of the property had resulted principally from the development of good roads and the use of motor vehicles and the street car system of the city of St. Joseph, as well as from the change in the method of marketing livestock. It did not appear that the hotel produced enough revenue to pay taxes, insurance, and upkeep, to saying nothing of a return on its alleged value, and it is plain that, if its value were to be included in the rate base, the effect would be to levy an annual charge upon the patrons of the yards, principally the original shippers, in order to maintain hotel facilities on a noncompensatory basis for the special benefit of the truck drivers and others who patronized it. The District Co rt held that it would have to be shown very clearly that the business of the yards would be materially affected by the absence of a near-by hotel before it could be said that its maintenance was so related to the stockyards business as to be properly included in fixing the rate for yard services. The court said that there was no such showing. We take the same view. The land found to be used and useful is divided into several zones. Appellant assigns error in valuation only in the case of Zone A, in which, however 70 per cent. of the used and useful land, or 3,003,973 square feet, is included. The Secretary valued this land at 16 cents per square foot, or at $480,635. Appellant contends that it is worth at least $275,164 more, which would be at the rate of about 25 cents a square foot. Expert witnesses for both parties testified at length. At the first hearing, in 1929, two witnesses for appellant valued the land in Zone A at 30 cents per square foot. The witness for the government valued it at 35 cents, predicated upon its particular value for stockyard use; otherwise at 20 cents. Before the second hearing, in 1933, two of these witnesses had died. The surviving witness for appellant again testified, giving a value, as of August, 1932, of 26 cents per square foot, and a second witness for appellant thought it worth 35 cents. The new witness for the government placed the value as of November, 1932, at $5,000 an acre, or about 11 1/2 cents per square foot. All the witnesses were highly qualified experts. Their valuations were of the naked land, without improvements. The three witnesses at the second hearing had collaborated in examining about 147 different transactions relating to property in the general vicinity, but they reached independent conclusions. The government's witness attached special weight to five sales, or groups of sales, made at different times from 1918 to 1930 at prices as low or lower than the valuation he fixed. Appellant points to other transfers at other locations at higher prices. Manifestly these transactions involved collateral inquiries, and in the end simply afforded information of varying significance to aid the forming of an expert judgment. Appellant recognizes the impracticability of attempting to analyze 'the rather involved transfers and locations in an attempt to determine the truth as between the land appraisers.' Accordingly, appellant seeks to demonstrate that the Secretary's finding is vitiated by what is asserted to be his reliance upon an erroneous analysis of a sale by appellant, in 1929, of the entire capital stock of a terminal belt railway company which served the stockyards and the adjacent industrial area. It is said that none of the expert witnesses based their appraisals upon that transaction. We think that appellant overestimates the relative weight given to it by the Secretary and fails to take proper account of the effect of its use. The Secretary found that the valuation by the government's witness at 11 1/2 cents per square foot was 'well supported by analysis of transactions in adjacent and similar lands,' but the Secretary thought that the witness had failed to give consideration to the belt railway sale. That led the Secretary to give a higher valuation than that of the government's witness. And on all the evidence the Secretary fixed the value at 16 cents per square foot which he said did not represent 'depression or stagnation value' but constituted 'the reasonable normal value of the land giving weight to values existing immediately preceding as well as those existing during the present depression.' The weight to be accorded to the testimony of the experts cannot be determined without understanding their approach to the question and the criteria which governed their estimates. The testimony of appellant's witnesses shows quite clearly that they proceeded, in part at least, upon an erroneous basis. The Packers and Stockyards Act treats the various stockyards of the country 'as great ational public utilities to promote the flow of commerce from the ranges and farms of the West to the consumers in the East.' It assumes that 'they conduct a business affected by a public use of a national character and subject to national regulation.' Stafford v. Wallace, supra, 258 U.S. 495, at page 516, 42 S.Ct. 397, 402, 66 L.Ed. 735, 23 A.L.R. 229. Appellant, conducting such a business, was entitled to be allowed in the fixing of its rates the fair market value of its land for all available uses and purposes, which would include any element of value that it might have by reason of special adaptation to particular uses. But it was not entitled to an increase over that fair market value by virtue of the public use. Minnesota Rate Cases (Simpson v. Shepard), 230 U.S. 352, 451, 455, 33 S.Ct. 729, 57 L.Ed. 1511, 48 L.R.A.(N.S.) 1151, Ann.Cas.1916A, 18; Clark's Ferry Bridge Co. v. Public Service Commission, supra,

67 F3d 699 Nicks v. State of Missouri 67 F3d 699 Nicks v. State of Missouri 67 F.3d 699 Sandra NICKS, Appellee,v.STATE OF MISSOURI; Bellefontaine Habilitation Center;Keith Schafer, Individually and in his officialcapacities; Gregory Kramer,Individually and in hisofficial capacities;Defendants,Margaret Kesselring, Individually and in her officialcapacities; Sherris McMahan, Individually and inher official capacities; Kay Karras,Individually and in herofficial capacities,Appellants. United States Court of Appeals,Eighth Circuit. Submitted June 16, 1995.Decided Oct. 12, 1995. Karen King Mitchell, Chief Counsel Governmental Affairs Division, Attorney General's Office, Jefferson City, Missouri, argued, for appellant. Mary Anne Sedey, St. Louis, Missouri, argued, for appellee. Before BOWMAN and HEANEY, Circuit Judges, and KYLE,* District Judge. BOWMAN, Circuit Judge. Kay Karras, Margaret Kesselring, and Sherris McMahan appeal the judgment of the District Court1 awarding damages to Sandra Nicks on her sexual harassment claims under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988). We affirm. The evidence submitted to the jury in this case, viewed in the light most favorable to the jury's verdict, showed that Nicks was sexually harassed by Robert Little, a co-worker, from 1987 to 1989 while she was employed as a psychologist at the Bellefontaine Habilitation Center (BHC), a state-run mental health facility. BHC consists of office buildings and group homes occupied by patients in a setting that resembles a college campus. Little was a qualified mental retardation professional assigned to a group home in BHC's Unit I; Nicks was never assigned to work in that group home. Little's unwanted attention included, but was not limited to, purposeless visits, some of several hours' duration, to the office Nicks shared with Karras; Little's attempts to discuss his personal and marital problems with Nicks; statements of Little's desire to have a relationship with her; quests through the parking lot for her car; and attempts to follow her around at work. The evidence of Little's harassing behavior is substantial. Nicks testified that she reported Little's conduct to her immediate supervisor, defendant Kay Karras, in the fall of 1988, and Karras corroborated Nicks's testimony. Rather than taking action to correct Little's job-related conduct, Karras suggested that Nicks work at one of BHC's group homes when Nicks's schedule required her to work alone after regular business hours. Little, however, followed Nicks to the group homes and continued to demonstrate his unwelcome interest in her. Nicks again reported Little's conduct to Karras, who did nothing. Nicks twice reported Little's conduct to Little's immediate supervisor, Ron Gerhardt, who also did nothing. Nicks and other BHC employees requested a meeting with defendant Sherris McMahan, manager of BHC's Unit I, to discuss Little's conduct. Nicks and other employees reported that Little was following Nicks around the campus and pursuing her during both day and night shifts. They also stated that Little's behavior was getting progressively worse. McMahan refused to act, stating that BHC could not do anything until Little "did something" to Nicks. Tr. vol. IV at 13. Karras testified that she reported on the concerns raised at the meeting to defendant Margaret Kesselring, BHC's personnel director. Nicks also called Kesselring to schedule a meeting regarding Little's behavior. Kesselring, however, told Nicks that "it's irrelevant," Tr. vol. III at 91, 92, and took no action against Little even though BHC's disciplinary procedures provided for sanctions ranging from counseling to discharge. In fact, when Little resigned in October 1989, Kesselring recorded that he was an employee in good standing, which made him eligible for reemployment at BHC. On March 2, 1989, Nicks requested a 30-day sick leave, which was denied by BHC despite the fact that Nicks's treating psychologist and psychiatrist both recommended a medical leave. Nicks did not report for work, and BHC dismissed her effective April 18, 1989. Nicks appealed her dismissal to the Personnel Advisory Board (PAB), which reinstated Nicks with back pay and attorney fees. On February 7, 1991, the decision and order of the Board was affirmed by the Circuit Court of St. Louis County. During Nicks's absence from BHC, however, Little was not idle. He visited her apartment complex, posing as a concerned co-worker, and convinced the apartment manager to let him into Nicks's apartment. He telephoned Nicks at her apartment several times daily, calling back when Nicks would hang up on him. He sent a long personal note professing his "love" for Nicks in a package disguised to look as if it had been sent by a St. Louis University professor. He left notes for her at St. Louis University, where she was taking graduate courses, and, on one occasion, he left a single red rose and a note for Nicks at the psychology department office. This behavior continued through August 1989. During all of this time, Little was still employed by BHC, and the evidence shows that the individual defendants were aware of Little's continuing harassment of Nicks. During the period between her dismissal and her reinstatement, Nicks instituted workers' compensation proceedings and received compensation for a permanent partial disability resulting from the emotional stress caused by Little's harassment. On August 17, 1990, she also filed this action in federal district court for damages and injunctive relief. The District Court disposed of several counts of her complaint in pre-trial rulings. At trial, Nicks's Sec. 1983 claims against Karras, Kesselring, and McMahan were submitted to the jury while her Title VII claims for injunctive relief against the State of Missouri and BHC were submitted to the court. The jury found in favor of Nicks on her Sec. 1983 claims and awarded $70,000 in compensatory damages for mental anguish and suffering and $4,500 in punitive damages against Karras, Kesselring, and McMahan. The court found Missouri and BHC liable for violating Nicks's Title VII rights and granted injunctive relief, requiring BHC to circulate its sexual harassment policy and to conduct training on this topic. Missouri and BHC have not appealed from the court's judgment. The individual defendants, however, appeal from the judgment entered on the jury's verdict and from the court's denial of their motion for judgment as a matter of law or for a new trial. They argue that (1) evidence of Little's continuing harassment of Nicks after she was no longer employed by BHC should have been excluded because it is irrelevan

Bankruptcy And Insolvency ActRoutine Proceedings October 7th, 1998 / 3:15 p.m. moved for leave to introduce Bill C-439, an act to amend the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act (student loan). I am very pleased to rise in the House today to introduce my private member's bill to change the bankruptcy act affecting students. The purpose of my bill is to repeal the discriminatory changes that were made to the bankruptcy act that forced students suffering from high student debtload to wait from the previous two years to now ten years before they can access bankruptcy proceedings. Despite high tuition fees and increasing student debt 93% of students do find a way to pay back their loans. It is only those students who are most desperate and most in debt who seek bankruptcy protection. This bill would repeal the extended waiting period of ten years back to two years to make it fairer for students. I hope all members of the House will support this bill in recognition of the severe difficulties that students face today. Criminal CodeRoutine Proceedings Dan McTeague Pickering—Ajax—Uxbridge, ON moved for leave to introduce Bill C-440, an act to amend the Criminal Code (flight). The purpose of this bill is to amend the Criminal Code by adding a provision and penalties for anyone using a motor vehicle to evade police and in the process causing injury or death. Fleeing from police by means that result in a high speed chase causes inordinate risks to the safety of their officers and to the public and merits special criminal sanction. Current dangerous driving provisions of the Criminal Code are inadequate in dealing appropriately and specifically with such acts. Under the bill any individual who operates a motor vehicle to evade a peace officer is guilty of an indictable offence under the Criminal Code and is liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years. In addition, anyone who commits such an offence and in the process injures another person will be liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 10 years. Anyone causing death will be liable to imprisonment for life. IranRoutine Proceedings Svend Robinson Burnaby—Douglas, BC Mr. Speaker, following consultations with members on all sides of the House, I seek the unanimous consent of the House to put the following motion, seconded by the hon. members for Rosedale, Red Deer, Beauharnois—Salaberry, and Richmond—Arthabaska: That this House express its profound concern over the recent grave attacks on the Iranian Baha'i community including the brutal execution of Mr. Rahu'llah Rawhani in July, arrests of 36 Baha'i academics, and confirmation of death sentences of two Baha'i men and the detention of 11 other Baha'i men for practising their faith; and calls upon the Government of Iran to end their oppression of the Baha'i community, ensure the safety and early release of all those Baha'i imprisoned in Iran, and respect the principles of the International Covenants on Human Rights to which Iran is a party. (Motion agreed to) Mr. Speaker, in view of the ongoing carnage, devastation and genocide taking place in the former Yugoslavia, I propose the following motion: That in the opinion of this House the government should lobby the United Nations general assembly to indict Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic for crimes against humanity and lobby the United Nations to assemble a UN observer force to ensure the immediate withdrawal of Serbian forces from Kosovo, and allow the United Nations high commission for refugees and non-governmental organizations safe and unfettered access to Kosovo refugees. Does the hon. member for Esquimalt—Juan de Fuca have the unanimous consent of the House to propose this motion? There is no consent. Langley—Abbotsford, BC Mr. Speaker, I have petition to table from residents of my riding of Langley—Abbotsford. They ask parliament to enact Bill C-225, an act to amend the Marriage Act, so as to define in statute that a marriage can only be entered into between a single male and single female. Ovid Jackson Bruce—Grey, ON Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 36 I have the honour to present on behalf of the residents of Bruce—Grey two petitions. In the first petitioners express their support for legislation with regard to Bill C-304 which would guarantee certain property rights to Canadian citizens. Mr. Speaker, the second petition from constituents of Owen Sound, Annan, Meaford, Shallow Lake and Chatworth asks that parliament not finance or subsidize the sale of Candu reactors to China or any other country. Mr. Speaker, since 1867 it has been a right of Canadians to petition the Parliament of Canada and the crown for redress of grievances. I have three such petitions today which are asking the crown to review the hepatitis C compensation package for Canadians infected by tainted blood. I would like to be able to add these to Joey Haché's petition of 30,000 names which was presented to the Prime Minister yet I found out through the clerk of petitions that the Prime Minister has not enacted his responsibility by presenting that to the House. Therefore I present these 259 names from Okanagan—Coquihalla and ask where is Joey Haché's petition. The hon. member better stick to the script for presentation of petitions and present the petition he has rather than worrying about other ones. I know it might be interesting to ask that kind of question, but clearly it is not a proper question at this time. Mac Harb Ottawa Centre, ON Mr. Speaker, I have a petition signed by Canadians from Saskatchewan and Manitoba asking parliament to amend the Divorce Act to include a provision as proposed in Bill C-340 regarding the right of spouses' grandparents to access or to have custody of the child or children. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to present a petition on behalf of Leone and Peter Jackson and 99 other from North Vancouver. They draw to the attention of the House that violent crimes committed by youth are of great concern to Canadians, that the incidence of violent crime by youth would decrease if the Young Offenders Act were amended to hold young persons fully accountable for their criminal behaviour, and to increase the periods of incarceration in order to defer young criminals from committing criminal acts. The petitioners call on parliament to significantly amend the Young Offenders Act including but not limited to making the protection of society the number one priority, reducing the minimum age governed by the act from 12 to 10, allowing for the publishing of violent young offenders' names, increasing the maximum three year sentence for all offences except murder to seven years, and increasing the penalty for first degree murder from a maximum of 10 years to 15.

Voice Newspaper Serving Oakland County Blogs > Lions Lowdown One thing you can count on with the Detroit Lions is that they are never, ever boring. Follow the latest news including injuries, roster moves and more here daily from Oakland Press beat writer Paula Pasche. Plus you'll find regular commentary about the team. Lions-Vikings recap I don't know about you, but I'm more convinced than ever the Lions are going 0-16. Why? Because teams as bad as the Lions don't get gift-wrapped opportunities to win like this every week. They marched inside the Minnesota 10 three times Sunday, they equaled their season total with two interceptions, they forced three Adrian Peterson fumbles and the Vikings lost their starting quarterback to injury in the first half and committed a slew of penalties. And what did the Lions do with all those breaks? Nothing. They scored all of six points in the first half. They didn't recover a single Peterson fumbles, and backup Tarvaris Jackson became the seventh signal caller this year to set a career-high quarterback rating against the Lions. The end result: A 20-16 Minnesota win. “It looked like the ball was bouncing our way, and that's something that hasn't happened this year a lot,” said linebacker Ryan Nece, whose first-quarter interception set up a Jason Hanson field goal. “It was bouncing our way and we just didn't capitalize in certain areas, and it's unfortunate because you got to take advantage. Anytime that football bounces your way you got to take advantage of it and put points on the board and put yourself in a position to change field position or whatever it may be, an opportunistic situation. And we just unfortunately didn't get it done.” The Lions didn't get it done largely because they left too many points on the field early. They reached the Minnesota 4 on their first two drives but had to settle for Hanson field goals. They went for fourth-and-1s on their next two drives and failed to convert (Daunte Culpepper got stuffed on a quarterback sneak on the 5-yard line 46 seconds before halftime). And when they needed a defensive stop late, there were no plays to be found. The Vikings, ran, effectively, the final 5:44 off the clock, converting a third-and-4 and second-and-13 on Jackson passes to Bobby Wade and Chester Taylor. “I think the biggest disappointment, at the end of the game we've got to stop them,” Lions coach Rod Marinelli said. “We played well for most of the game and when we had a chance and we needed a stop we didn't get that done.” • The Lions are 31-94 since 2001. That's the worst winning percentage (.248) over any eight-season span since 1950, according to STATS. They're also three losses from becoming the first team to go 0-16 in NFL history. Up next is a trip to Indianapolis, winners of six straight. Then a home game against New Orleans and the NFL's top-ranked offense. And the Lions close with a visit to Green Bay, where they haven't won since 1991. • I can't blame Marinelli for being so aggressive early. That was the right call considering how bad the defense has been. But I do take issue with at least one of Jim Colletto's fourth-down play calls. On fourth-and-1 from the 30 late in the first half, Colletto dialed up a pass to John Standeford. This is the same John Standeford who didn't make the team out of training camp. I know Kevin Smith was stuffed for no gain a play earlier, but I'd rather take my chances with a handoff to him, a sneak by Culpepper or a pass to Calvin Johnson. • And before you say the sneak to Culpepper didn't work two series later, there's no excuse for an offense line and a 280-pound quarterback not being able to get an inch, even against Pat and Kevin Williams, two of the best defensive tackles in the game. “Definitely there was a wall, Kevin and Pat Williams,” Culpepper said of his failed sneak. “They made a play and we didn't make a play, simple as that. It's tough. That's football though.” • Culpepper on Marinelli's decision to be aggressive (he said he decided during the week to try and convert fourth-and-3 or shorter in Minnesota territory): “You got to be aggressive, I think, in this situation definitely. I like Coach Marinelli's attitude. He's just like, hey, let's go get something, and we just got to – when the coach believes in us like that to go for it on fourth down, we got to do our job as players to make the play.” • Culpepper did leave late in the fourth quarter with a shoulder injury, which means the Lions could start their fourth different quarterback next week. Jon Kitna made four starts before the Lions stashed him on injured reserve with a bad back, Dan Orlovsky started four games before getting knocked out with a fractured thumb, and Culpepper's started the last five weeks. He said he doesn't know the extent of his injury, but will have an MRI Monday. Drew Henson replaced him for the final play (and was sacked). There's a chance Orlovsky could return this week. If not – and if Culpepper can't go – Drew Stanton could make his first career start in what appears to be a totally unwinnable game. • One more quote from Vikings safety Darren Sharper on the atmosphere at Ford Field: “It was about a half-filled stadium. It seemed as though we were at a morgue more than a football game.” • Lastly, barring the occurrence of some totally newsworthy event, the blog will take a couple days off. I won't be at Marinelli's weekly press conference Monday because my wife and I are expecting our first baby and have our first ultrasound scheduled. I'll return with regular updates Wednesday.Labels: Dan Orlovsky, Daunte Culpepper, Detroit Lions, Drew Henson, Drew Stanton, Jason Hanson, Jim Colletto, John Standeford, Kevin Smith, Kevin Williams, Pat Williams, Rod Marinelli, Ryan Nece posted by Paula Pasche at 10:58 PM 5 Comments: Congratulations on your new addition!

Can you briefly discuss when, how, and the reasoning behind forming the collective? Can you mention any precursors or previous organizing that influenced the formation of this endeavor? Rock Dove has a really clear birthday and birthplace. We met at the first New York Metro Alliance of Anarchists meeting. In the meeting, people broke out by groups about what might evolve into working groups and one of those was called “Alternative Therapies.” We met by the food table. We always joke that it makes a lot of sense that Rock Dove met by the food at the beginning because we – unlike most groups we work with and we know – are really committed to having our health and our well-being and our sustenance at the center of how we do our work. We had a second meeting with a subset of the people who had taken part in that breakout group within a few weeks and really from there set the main structure of the collective. We started with two primary aims. The first was to develop a network of practitioners ranging from doctors to massage therapists to conflict resolution specialists. The second was to create a network of support for those practitioners, especially those who were doing health and healing work from a radical perspective and very often were overwhelmed or alienated or were unable to practice with the people that they really wanted to be serving. At the beginning we envisioned it maybe more than we do now primarily as support for radical, activist, movement communities. We can talk about how that’s shifted over time. But that’s how we started in March 2006. Thinking back to those initial conversations where do you think the identification of that need to form a group like that came from? Most of us who were in that original group shared some things in common. Many people had their own experience of illness or health struggles whether it was mental health or physical health or whatever. Many of us had seen that as a really profound gap in radical organizing. We saw people just burn themselves out and destroy themselves. And we saw that once people were sick, the movement was done. We had lost all these people who we needed and we had a sense that we couldn’t actually afford to form a movement that was comprised entirely of healthy, able-bodied, young, mostly white men. And that that was clearly a profound loss. Many of us understood that the absence of any understanding or focus on health and healing was something that was undermining the ability of the movement to really succeed. Something that we were excluding were areas of work that were typically regarded as being the domain of women. And when you think about your nannies, your housekeepers and all of those, these are very often the domain of women of color. Also, many of us work in some kind of social service capacity. We have struggled with what it means to be constantly interacting with the state or to be doing work from a radical perspective in an organization that doesn’t do it for the reasons that you do it. We understood that this is a really clear challenge for the healers and health practitioners we wanted to engage and we wanted to commit to supporting them in doing work that we knew would be meaningfully to them and fulfilling to them but that they didn’t have an avenue to do. Additionally, people were like “can I please have a gynecologist who doesn’t freak out if I don’t want to take birth control because I think it’s toxic? Or if I want to talk to her about whether or not wild carrot seed is really viable option to keep me from having a baby or if I list more than two partners in the last year doesn’t look at me like I’m a slut?” Or “can I please find people who will engage with me in my questions about my health in a way that supports my self-determination and my dignity and my autonomy and the fact that it’s my body?” And that means everything from finding a doctor who is willing to respect your choice to treat your flu with acupuncture to the whole spectrum of what we hope to find in the health care that we can get. What are the collective’s major purposes and strategies for attaining its goals? What specific activities has the collective been engaged in to work towards these goals? Our primary goals are to make dignified respectful health care available to as many people as possible. We understand health really broadly. We understand that includes your physical health, your mental health, your spiritual health. It includes toxins in your water, in includes violence in your home and in your neighborhood. It includes things that range from interpersonal dynamics to cavities in your teeth. When we talk about health practitioners and we talk about access to health, we don’t just mean a clean bill of health from your general practitioner. We think much more broadly about what it means to be healthy. We don’t believe that the various ways that we’re taught to divide those various aspects of our health are right or are useful. We have a few strategies, which are connected to our activities. Our idea is that there are people who provide health services and that there are people who want them and that if we could help bring them together, that would be really be useful. And if we could help bring them together in a way that wasn’t mediated by money all the time, that would be really beautiful. The idea that your health is something that should have a price tag on it is also something that is fundamentally wro

Jerome (Shaw) of Manhattan Revision as of 22:03, June 24, 2009 by Pistevo (Talk | contribs) His Grace Bishop Jerome is Bishop of Manhattan, New York, vicar of the Eastern-American diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia. Life Bishop Jerome (John Robert Shaw) was born on December 21, 1946, and grew up in a small New England town. He came of an old American family, of "Anglo" ancestry, and was raised in the Episcopal (Anglican) Church. Interested in languages from an early age, he began learning Russian and Greek from the time he was 14. At first, he did not see the connection between these languages and religion, but as he became more curious about the Anglican Church, he found that just as the Church of England had broken away from Rome, so in turn had the Church of Rome originated as one of the Orthodox Patriarchates, but separated and made changes in its teachings. From age 16, his curiosity about these things began to turn into a serious quest for the True Church. That year, he began immersing himself in everything he could read about Orthodox Christianity, and discovered that one of his schoolmates, Dimitri Rimsky, was of Russian Orthodox background. Dimitri's father, Feodor K. Rimsky, was a parishioner of the Synodal Cathedral of Our Lady of the Sign in Manhattan, and although he did not attend services too often, he recommended the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia to John, and promised to take him there the next time he went. Then, on April 6, 1963 (which was Lazarus Saturday that year), John made a visit to the Chapel of St. Sergius in Southbury CT, and met the future Bishop Daniel (Alexandrow) of Erie, who took him that evening to the Night Vigil service in Mahopac NY. That first experience of Orthodox worship made a lasting impression. John spent that summer in Greece, staying with the Yiannouzis family in a suburb of Athens, and, surrounded there by the Orthodox Church, made a firm decision to embrace Orthodox Christianity as soon as possible. After attending Russian Orthodox services for most of that year, he was received into the Orthodox Church by chrismation, on the day after he turned 17: on Sunday, December 22, 1963. The future Bishop Daniel (who at that time was Rd. Dimitri B. Alexandrow) was away from Southbury for some time, working with the newly-arrived Old Believer Cossacks who had emigrated from Turkey, and John was received into the Orthodox Church by the V. Rev. Fr. Michael B. Draovitch, of Waterbury CT. For a few months, John attended St. Mary's Russian Orthodox Church in Waterbury, but was soon involved again in ROCOR, and has remained a ROCOR member ever since. After graduation from high school, John studied at the University of Pittsburgh, majoring in Russian linguistics, with a minor in East European history. He graduated cum laude in the spring of 1968, and entered Holy Trinity Seminary in Jordanville NY, where his classmates included the future Bishop Peter of Cleveland, Fr. Alexander Lebedeff, Fr. Stefan Pavlenko, Fr. Vitaly Kichakov, Bro. Adam Krotov and others. As a seminarian, John's "obedience" was at the linotype. He was tonsured a reader on September 27, 1970, by Archbishop Averky of blessed memory. After graduation from Jordanville in the class of 1971, Rd. John served as a helper, translator, subdeacon and chauffeur to Archbishop Nikon of blessed memory, and, on the recommendation of his father-confessor

Life-threatening meningococcal disease on the rise 4/18/2011, 5 p.m. LOS ANGELES, Calif.--The county's top public health officer warned today that cases of meningococcal disease are on the rise in Los Angeles and urged several at-risk groups to get vaccinations. Seven cases of the life-threatening illness, which can cause meningitis and blood infections, have been reported since mid-March. "The increase in cases of meningococcal disease in such a short period of time is higher than expected,'' said Dr. Jonathan Fielding, director of the Department of Public Health. "Last year, there were a total of 21 such cases.'' The department is monitoring the cases and working with those infected to limit the spread of the bacterial disease of the bloodstream or meninges, the lining covering the brain. Fielding said that a vaccine can prevent two of the three most common types of the disease found in the U.S. "Also, meningococcal disease can be treated with appropriate antibiotics if caught early,'' he added. The disease is spread by close contact with an infected person's saliva or other secretions, not through casual contact or simply breathing the same air. Symptoms include high fever, headache, stiff neck, nausea, vomiting, skin rash and aversion to bright lights. Fielding recommended vaccinations for several groups: * All 11 and 12-year-olds with a booster between the ages of 16 and 18; * Children at high-risk for the disease between 2 and 10 years old, including those that travel to countries where meningococcal meningitis is epidemic; * Young adults living in a college dormitory; * Adults with compromised immune systems; * Microbiologists routinely exposed to the bacteria that carries the disease; * Military recruits; and * Those traveling to countries where the disease is common. Less than half of 11 and 12-year-old children are vaccinated, according to Fielding. The disease has intermittently reached epidemic levels in Africa and is prevalent in other areas of the developing world, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2002, 13,000 people were struck and 1,500 were killed by a strain of meningococcal disease. For more information about meningococcal disease, follow this link to the CDC.

» Stan Musial dies at 92 Stan Musial dies at 92 Quote:"Man-kind" mourns today. The primary baseball icon of the Midwest -- the soft-smiling, sweet-swinging, deferential and genial man known as "The Man" -- has passed. Stan Musial, known for his pretzel stance, prodigious production, princely personality and Hall of Fame harmonica, died on Saturday, surrounded by family at his home in Ladue, Mo., not far from St. Louis, where he made his mark as a batsman par excellence in the 1940s and '50s. Arguably the greatest left-handed hitter in National League history was 92.His stylish, spring-loaded stance and oft-repeated swing -- for years, Musial swung an invisible bat as his greeting or bow -- and the remarkable numbers they produced for the St. Louis Cardinals placed The Man among the most distinctive and elite players in baseball's long history. He won three National League Most Valuable Player Awards, three World Series, seven batting championships, the hearts of millions and the enduring nickname that was as unembellished as he was.Musial was marked by conspicuous modesty, unfailing propriety and utter lack of flamboyance, as sportscaster Bob Costas observed in a passage from ESPN's SportsCentury series: "He didn't hit a homer in his last at-bat; he hit a single. He didn't hit in 56 straight games. He married his high school sweetheart and stayed married to her, never married a Marilyn Monroe. He didn't play with the sheer joy and style that goes alongside Willie Mays' name. ... All Musial represents is more than two decades of sustained excellence and complete decency as a human being."Consistent with that description was the presentation of the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Musial by President Obama at the White House on Feb. 15, 2011. An American civilian can receive no greater honor.MLB Commissioner Allan H. "Bud" Selig offered his condolences in a statement released shortly after Musial's death."Major League Baseball has lost one of its true legends in Stan Musial, a Hall of Famer in every sense and a man who led a great American life. He was the heart and soul of the historic St. Louis Cardinals franchise for generations, and he served his country during World War II. A recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011, Stan's life embodies baseball's unparalleled history and why this game is the national pastime."As remarkable as 'Stan the Man' was on the field, he was a true gentleman in life. All of Major League Baseball mourns his passing, and we extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, admirers and all the fans of the Cardinals."Musial, father of three daughters and a son, was unpretentious, untroubled, friendly and folksy. The harmonica he played at Hall of Fame weekends and other public gatherings fit his image and humanized him for the masses who saw him as a Louisville Slugger deity. It was as though he copyrighted the greeting, "Whaddya say? Whaddya say? Whaddya say?" The words always came with a gentle smile.Former Cardinals manager Tony La Russa once called George Kissel, the late Cardinals coach of fundamentals and resident baseball genius, "The nicest person in the world." And after a moment's pause, he added, "Musial is only percentage points behind."Before the game expanded in the early '60s, the Midwest knew four teams, two in Chicago and two in St. Louis. And the Cardinals had the highest profile in the region, the residue of the Gashouse Gang, the Dean Brothers and Pepper Martin. They were the league powerhouse from 1942-46, fueled primarily by Man-power.Musial was to the Cardinals what Joe DiMaggio was to the Yankees and Ted Williams was to the Red Sox. Folks who kept their radios tuned to KMOX in those summers would argue whether Joe D. and Teddy Ballgame were to their respective teams what Musial was to his. The Man was their gold standard, although routinely attired in red.If doubts about Musial existed after his first five full seasons -- during which he won two batting titles and two MVP Awards -- they were dispelled after his magnificent 1948 season. He led the National League in runs (135), hits (230), doubles (46), triples (18), RBIs (131), batting average (.376), slugging percentage (.702), on-base percentage (.450) and total bases (429) and finished second, by one to Ralph Kiner, with a career-high 39 home runs. A 40th was lost to a rainout.His total bases are the second most in history. Musial won his third MVP Award in 1948, though somehow he wasn't a unanimous choice. He even had a sacrifice bunt. Indeed, this remarkably accomplished batsman sacrificed 35 times in his career, more than DiMaggio and Williams combined. Or is the more remarkable figure a zero? Musial was ejected from none of the 3,026 games he played.Perhaps because of the predominance of East Coast media, Musial's prowess was somewhat obscured, first by DiMaggio and Williams in the '40s and by Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Henry Aaron in the '50s and into the '60s. Moreover, when the team of the 20th century was elected in a vote of fans in 1999, Musial was one of five preposterous omissions -- Lefty Grove, Christy Mathewson, Warren Spahn and Honus Wagner were the others -- who were added to the team by a vote of a special committee.Having been assigned to first base in 35 percent of the games he started in his 22 seasons, Musial placed 11th among outfielders in the balloting. He was the first player to appear in more than 1,000 games at each of two positions.But when he was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1969, The Man was named on 93.2 percent of the ballots cast, a percentage comparable to or greater than four of the other five -- Mantle (88.2), DiMaggio (88.8), Williams (93.4) and Mays (94.7). Hank Aaron received 97.8 percent of the vote when he was elected in 1982. And Musial was elected in his first year of eligibility, at a time when first-year election still was recognized as extra-special.Don't ever try to persuade a Cardinals disciple that Musial was something less than any other player. Even now, nearly a half-century after his retirement, he is held in the highest regard in St. Louis and its baseball suburbs. The Cardinals have numerous Hall of Famers on their all-time roster. Among the living are Bob Gibson, Ozzie Smith, Lou Brock, Red Schoendienst and Bruce Sutter. When they appeared together, Musial was routinely introduced last, an honor afforded DiMaggio with the Yankees and Williams with the Red Sox when they were alive. Mays, with the Giants, and Aaron, with the Braves, still are recognized last.Musial's rank in several career offensive categories is significantly closer to first despite missing the entire 1945 season to serve in the United States Navy. When he retired after the 1963 season, he shared or held 17 big league records and 29 National League records. He currently ranks in the top 10 in five career categories -- second in total bases (6,134), third in doubles (725), fourth in hits (3,630), sixth in RBIs (1,951) and ninth in runs (1,949). His .331 career batting average stands 30th. He received MVP votes in 18 seasons, finishing as the runner-up four times after winning his third award in 1948. He was second in the balloting in 1957, when at age 36, he won the NL batting title for the final time. He won his seventh title -- only Ty Cobb (11), Honus Wagner and Tony Gwynn (eight each) won more -- 14 years after his first.And he may well rank first in autographs given. Every year was a signature for The Man. He declined a request for his Stan Musial as often as he was ejected.Hence, the Man-made legend and the words at the base of the statue of Musial outside the third Busch Stadium in St. Louis: "Here stands baseball's perfect warrior. Here stands baseball's perfect knight." What better place for folks to meet?Even Albert Pujols, who might have eclipsed some of Musial's career totals with the Cardinals had he remained in shadow of the Arch, deferred to The Man. After "El Hombre" evolved as his nickname, Pujols requested that he not be so identified, even though his nickname was a complimentary nod to Musial. "I don't want to be called that," Pujols said in February 2010. "There is one man who gets that respect, and that's Stan Musial. He's The Man. He's The Man in St. Louis. And I know 'El Hombre' means 'The Man' in Spanish. But Stan is The Man. You can call me whatever else you want, but just don't call me 'El Hombre.'"The oddity of Musial's nickname is that it came from outside the Midwest, from Brooklyn, home of Dem Bums, of all places. Fans at Ebbets Field chanted "Here comes the man," each time Musial batted in a game on June 23, 1946. A column in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch the following day noted the development, referred to Musial as The Man, and the nickname stuck. Musial had a more conversational nickname, Stash -- pronounced Stahsh. His father, a Polish immigrant, called him Stashu. His given name was Stanislaw Franciszek Musial.Stanley Frank Musial, as he became known, was born in 1920 in Donora, Pa., the same town that was the birthplace of another left-handed slugger, Ken Griffey Jr., 49 years later to the date, Nov. 21. Musial was a pitcher who could hit and enough of a basketball player that the University of Pittsburgh offered him a scholarship. He chose baseball.A shoulder injury in the summer of 1940 ended his pitching career and gave rise to a one that prompted Dodgers broadcast genius Vin Scully to say, "How good was Stan Musial? Good enough to take your breath away.""He could have hit .300 with a fountain pen," Joe Garagiola, Musial's Cardinals teammate for five years and later a baseball announcer, said.Warren Spahn, the most successful left-handed pitcher in Major League history, whose career ran concurrently with Musial's from 1942-63, had this to say about The Man: "Once Musial timed your fastball, your infielders were in jeopardy." So, too, were folks in the stands. Musial hit 12 home runs and batted .358 in 240 career at-bats against Spahn. The only player with more home runs against Spahn -- Mays with 18 -- batted right-handed.And then there was Carl Erskine, the self-effacing former Dodgers pitcher who fully grasped the basis for Musial's nickname. Though The Man batted .327 in 110 at-bats against him, Erksine said, "I've had pretty good success with Stan by throwing him my best pitch ... and then backing up third."link"You don't hurt 'em if you don't hit 'em."

Why do kids always do things which we tell them NOT to do? 3 This is the kind of behaviour which I have seen in lot of kids including mine (2 year old). When I tell him NOT to hold a knife, he will make sure he does it. If I tell him not to spill milk on the floor, he will drop the glass at that very moment. I am little confused as to how to stop such a behaviour. I know we should always "scold" our kids if they are doing wrong. But with such a tendency, they will always do what we avoid them to do. What is the right way to tackle such a behaviour? toddler discipline share|improve this question asked Dec 2 '11 at 9:21 meetpd Because they are humans with their own free will. 'tis human nature. Because they are little scientists and they want to find out what happens if they do :) I'm not a psychologist, but I've often heard, that from psychological point of view the "No" or negation in the heard words is subconsciously overheard, so if you tell you child "don't hold the knife", what passes through to its brain is only "hold the knife". (I think I read that e. g. in the book "The Secret of Happy Children" by Steve Biddulph) The solution is to use positive expressions instead of negative ones. This is often difficult and sometimes seems impossible to me, but very often it works: I think it is better to say "be careful" than "don't bang your head on that sharp edge and injure yourself so that we'll have to go to the hospital"! Say "hold the glass carefully" rather than "don't drop it". Say "the knife always stays on the table" rather than "don't touch the knife". Say "always stay on the sidewalk" rather than "Never go on the road". I also heard about this kind of "positive" programming when talking to yourself (loudly or "in your head"): e. g. if your driving your car and you are tired and you tell yourself "Don't get off the road!", you will more likely really get off the road than if you tell yourself "stay on the road!" +1, I've heard of the same principle. Attention = encouragement. Negative attention = same encouragement. We also try to use only positive statements. "Hold the glass carefully" rather than "don't drop it". As for "don't touch the knife", you could say "the knife always stays on the table". "Never go on the road" becomes "always stay on the sidewalk." @Torben - we always do the same. It gives a really positive message to the children! At what age is this supposed to be true? My own daughter will be 3 in a few months, and when I tell her not to do something, she reassures me that she won't do it. Often though, such assurances are "optimistic", but it's clear that she understands what is expected. Her willingness to push boundaries as well reflects what she expects the consequences will be. She's much more likely to turn the volume up on Mickey Mouse than she is to attempt to hold a knife or run out in the street. I'm glad I don't have to teach her newspeak to parent her properly, seems bizarre. – John O Right so, "Make sure the knife is in the right place (table top)!" and "Make sure you get all the milk in your mouth!" – bobobobo BBM's answer is excellent, but I just thought I would add a bit about independence. As children grow up, begin developing independence, and start becoming responsible for their actions, they may come up with their own unique way of learning what "the rules" are that go along with independence and responsibility. Without rules, everyone's independence would infringe on everyone else's independence and there would be chaos. Children don't intuitively understand the need for rules at first, they just hear you tell them something they shouldn't do. Perhaps this response--deliberately engaging in explicitly forbidden behavior--is simply one way they are testing the waters. Why shouldn't I hold the knife? What will happen if I hold the knife? We know the answers to these questions, and we hope that we can spare our children the pain of learning these answers for themselves by experience. Realize that this type of disobedience does not necessarily indicate any failure on your part as a parent. Children are extremely sensitive to inconsistency and hypocrisy, so trust may be your biggest ally in this struggle (and remember that trust takes time to develop). For example, if you tell them not to hold a knife and then they see you holding the knife later, think of how the child will perceive that. We understand that this is not inconsistent and hypocritical, but they might not. As others have suggested, we need to be careful about the words we use when telling our kids what not to do. My suggestion is just to be as consistent as possible with the things you tell them not to do and with enforcing consequences for disobedience. It takes time for children to learn why they shouldn't do certain things, and we may wish they would just recognize and trust our experience in the mean time, but we must be patient with them as they learn. Being consistent (both in terms of "words in line with actions" and "consistent in every case") is one of the best things your can do to help this learning process. Daniel Standage +1 very good point. Our son also has an especially strong desire to be independent and to take his own decision. BTW thanks for the compliment :-) – BBM I think all of you are right about phrasing things in a positive way, however, the result might still be that the child does it in which case, especially when danger is involved (ie-the knife or the road) age appropriate punitive measures must be employed. Different ones work for different kids, sometimes trial and error is the only way to find out what works for your child. Also, the severity of the act (in terms of how dangerous it is) applies here as well. 1) time out (one minute per year of age) works/ed for 2 of my 4 kids. (My youngest is too young to respond to it and my second just doesn't care if she is in time out. My eldest, who time out worked for when she was younger, she is now 7, puts her self in time out now when she knows she is on the verge of getting into a situation which is not good; in adult language we would call this alone time). 2)If the situation is truely dangerous (ie- my 3 year old son crossed the street on his own) immediate action must be taken and therefore time out won't work as it probably can't be done right then. I never have hit or spanked my kids, however, when he did this I did give him a swat on the tush. I am sure it did not hurt, however he cried and after he was done crying I asked him what mistake he made and he told me he is not allowed to cross the street alone. I asked him why this is a rule and he said that cars can't see him, so he could get hurt (this is the why we had told him before, it was nice to know he was listening). 3)With my 4 year old who does not respond to time out we have used either removing her from the room (sort of like time out but she can come back when she is ready to tell us her mistake) or having her stand in front of us and discussing with her (usually in a long drawn out manner in order for it to feel not nice instead of like attention) what the mistake was and why it was not a good idea. 4) with all my kids we only use the above as a last resort, prior to the unwanted behavior our house it really run on sticker charts. The kids work on one or two behaviors at a time and get stickers on their chart when they listen the first time, or play with more kids at school (not just their best friend), or learning to go pishy in the potty, or going to bed nicely, etc. HOWEVER, this does not work with dangerous behavior. I would like to repeat that these are done after we have made the positive statement about the behavior we would like to see and the behavior is done anyway. I like the idea of the sticker charts. +1 – meetpd I think it stems from their lack of experience. Think of something complex you have learned recently. Now imagine how much more difficult it would be to learn if it was taught to you only in terms of what not to do. Things like avoiding danger or a mess seem like common sense to us now, but at one point we all struggled to learn those behaviors. My son is four and a half now and able to stop things if we tell him, but he still just "freezes" if we tell him not to do something. We can't just say, "stop bothering your sister," because he has no idea what to do instead. We have to say, "go play with your toy cars." It goes against our nature a little bit, because parents want to establish boundaries but mostly let their kids direct their own play. However, sometimes you just have to nudge them in the right direction. Also, to specifically address things like spilling milk, it often helps to set the boundaries farther back from the edge. Instead of just telling them to be careful with the milk, only let them drink when they are focused and sitting down somewhere safe, etc. I think this is a stage of language development, the understanding of the concept of adding "not" to a phrase. Several times, with my toddler, I think instead of defience or anything due to positive/negative reinforcement, he simply doesn't understand the "don't" command. He hears, "Don't touch the knife," and understands I want him to do something with the knife, but not necessarily what I want him to do, so he grabs it. One command that I have tried to change when I use it is about throwing food on the floor. I used to say, "Don't throw your food on the floor." That doesn't communicate very clearly to a toddler and doesn't tell him what to do with the food. Now I try to remember to say, "Put the food in your mouth," or "Put the food to the side if you don't want it." My reasoning for why this is may be wrong, but I work at a daycare for toddlers, and have seen with them and with my own that telling them specifically what to do instead of what not to do works much better. I agree with you Rachel. I can think about two reasons: 1) If you forbid something without explaining WHY you did it - it is natural that the kid wants to know the reason and the only way for him to know it is to do forbidden thing. 2) A person who is forbidden from something feels humiliated. Humiliated state (mood) of mind is discomforting. To stop being discomforted one has to violate the prohibition. Personally I think that the second reason is more plausible, because it works on lower level of consciousness. vlad2135 I doubt that toddlers are able to feel humiliated. Older kids and adults -- yes! Your reason 1) sounds more plausible to me. Thats a great question. I heard that when you'r saying something not to do like "don't go down the stapes" the mind misses the word 'don't' and it takes GO DOWN..... So the best way of dealing with people is to say what to do like "stay here, put down the knife" instead of saying DON'T go down, DON'T touch the knife. share|improve this answer answered Dec 8 '11 at 17:40 Simple answer: Defiance is a sport for toddlers. The more you tell them not to do something while they are doing it, the more they will do it. And they will look directly at you with a big mischievous smile and laugh. Don't let this anger you or take it as a sign of disrespect. They are feeding off you telling them not to do it, so just don't feed their defiance. In the knife example, all that's left is to take away the knife so the toddler can't harm himself/herself. The only way the toddler will learn not to play with the knife is to forget about the knife and not have access to it. (I have a two-year-old son.) Not the answer you're looking for?

« How the Irish Saved Civilization What Secrets are in Your Family’s Closet? » Blog Update and Other Musings July 27, 2008 by Donna Pointkouski I wanted to post a note about some updates I made to this blog. First, I re-categorized my posts and added a Category box on the sidebar in case a specific category is of interest to you. Next, I added three PDF fils for some of my recent articles. Copies of “20 Best Sites for Italian Genealogy”, “Writing Letters Overseas”, and “U.S. Draft Cards” have all be added to the My Articles page and are available to download. Finally, I’ve added a page with detailed genealogical information (and some photos) on The Bergmeister Family. The ability to create pages is why I used WordPress to begin with, so it’s great that I was finally able to get one family page created. Look for more in the future! I am hoping to find others researching the same families. Speaking of blog changes, I received a link today from the California Genealogy Society and Library Blog as a comment on “several” of fellow genea-bloggers that post weekly “best of” picks. I discontinued my “Donna’s Picks” a couple of months ago for a few reasons. First, I realized that most of my readers are other genea-bloggers, so if I highlight one of their blogs chances are that almost all of my “readers” have already seen that post. Second, when I did highlight some non-genealogy blogs, nearly no one ever clicked on the link. That, combined with the lack of comments (other than from those I linked to), led me to stop the weekly Donna’s Picks round-up. I might start it back up, though. I enjoyed it, even if few readers did! As an aside, I have to comment on PERSPECTIVE as it relates to genealogy. Lately I’ve been lamenting my apparent lack of old family photographs. Some genea-bloggers seem to have photos of their 4th great-grandparents…I didn’t even know that photography itself was that old! I cherish the few photos I have, and I’ve always dreamed of suddenly receiving a box full of genealogical goodies. For months now, I’ve been contacting cousins in hopes of receiving some photos, but no one has any (or no one has sent me any). Then, I read about Craig’s find…unbelievable! Every genealogist’s dream come true! That would have made me a little depressed over my own lack of family photos, until I learned it’s just a metter of perspective. I got together with a friend yesterday whose grandparents were the immigrants to this country. She never met them because they died long before she was born, but she does have at least one photo of each set of grandparents. When I showed her the photos of three of the four sets of my great-grandparents, she was impressed and told me how lucky I was to have them. I have to admit, I am lucky. Just not as lucky as Craig! Posted in Miscellaneous | 4 Comments 4 Responses on July 27, 2008 at 7:06 pm Kathryn Doyle I hope you will start doing your “Picks” again! Don’t be dismayed about the lack of comments. One thing I learned at the Jamboree Bloggers Summit and from Schelly’s Gen-Bloggers talk is that the problem is universal. The good news is that your posts are out there for future searchers to find. on July 27, 2008 at 10:36 pm Ruth Stephens Hi Donna! I agree with Kathryn. I have about 70 blogs that I subscribe to in my Google Reader, and most have very interesting and often helpful (genealogy-wise) posts that I relish! But I usually don’t leave comments, ‘cuz “there just ain’t enough time in the day!” I do love to read them all and appreciate the work that everyone puts into their blogs. on July 28, 2008 at 9:05 pm Craig Manson I used to feel the way you do about the lack of photos–and I still do with respect to many of the other lines I’m researching! But I’m being careful, you what they say about getting what you wish for . . . . on August 4, 2008 at 8:37 pm Terry Thornton Donna, I’ve been running a “picks” off and on as my “Harvest from the Blog Garden” — and more off recently. Like you I’ve been considering dropping it completely as (1) it takes a lot of time and (2) it seemed that I’d always stayed within the same group of writers. I decided to give it a rest for a few weeks — and to post short “shout out” articles when the urge strikes. I think we both may be suffering from the doldrums of summer. I’ve missed your “picks.” HILL COUNTRY OF MONROE COUNTY MISSISSIPPI

Peace Corps News: Special Reports: November 16, 2004: UMBC's Shriver Center and Maryland Returned Volunteers welcome Scott Stossel in 2nd annual "Peace Corps History" series: Sargent Shriver and the Birth of the Peace Corps : June 2, 2003 - Maryland Returned Volunteers: Returned Volunteers honor former Director Jack Vaughn The Birth of the Peace CorpsUMBC's Shriver Center and the Maryland Returned Volunteers hosted Scott Stossel, biographer of Sargent Shriver, who spoke on the Birth of the Peace Corps. This is the second annual Peace Corps History series - last year's speaker was Peace Corps Director Jack Vaughn. By Admin1 (admin) on Monday, June 02, 2003 - 3:46 pm: Edit PostReturned Volunteers honor former Director Jack Vaughn Read and comment on this story from the Maryland Returned Volunteers on the event they organized with the Shriver Center in Baltimore on May 4 to honor former Peace Corps Director Jack Vaughn at the University of Maryland at: Returned Volunteers honor former Director Jack Vaughn* * This link was active on the date it was posted. PCOL is not responsible for broken links which may have changed. Returned Volunteers honor former Director Jack Vaughn On Sunday, May 4, the Maryland Returned Volunteers and the Shriver Center sponsored a special event at the University of Maryland to honor former Peace Corps Director Jack Vaughn. The event consisted of three parts:First a photo exhibition and advocacy fair starting at 3 pm held in the atrium of the Computer Science and Engineering Building at the University of Maryland's Baltimore County campus. Next a special program including an award ceremony and speech by the former Director in the Main Auditorium of the Computer Science and Engineering Building from 4 to 530 pm. Finally a reception for Director Vaughn that went from 530 to 7 pm. The Peace Corps Photo Exhibition Returned Chile Volunteer Kay Muldoon-Ibrahim put on a photo exhibition of her many photos over her 30 year career as a photo-journalist photos selected for this exhibit to illustrate her major goal as a photographer - "Our Shared Humanity." The photos were all taken in countries where volunteers have served: Chile, Guatemala, Peru, Kenya, Ethiopia, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Morocco, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, and Yemen. Ms. Muldoon-Ibrahim got her start in photo-journalism working for Peace Corps Washington in their Department of Public Information and in that capacity shot some stories for the "Peace Corps Volunteer" Magazine in 1968-1969. The Peace Corps Recruitment Table Meanwhile the Peace Corps' mid-Atlantic Recruiting Office out of Arlington, Virginia put up a recruitment booth where they talked to prospective volunteers. Lynn Kneedler, the head of the recruiting office, had issued invitations to prospective volunteers and others interested in joining the Peace Corps to attend the event. The Advocacy Fair There were eight groups represented at the Advocacy Fair including Maryland Returned Volunteers, the Shriver Center, the National Peace Corps Association (NPCA), the Global Warming Alliance, the Peace Corps Fund, Keeping Kennedy's Promise. Trees for the Future, and Peace Corps Online. Trees for the Future Trees for the Future (above) supports community projects that plant fast growing, permanent beneficial trees. These trees restore our environment, improve agricultural productivity and provide economic benefits to people in developing countries. The projects not only restore deforested areas, they help bring back the livelihood, health and harmony of the people who need and use these lands. Support the tree planting projects around the world. Requests to start projects are received daily and they need your tax deductible contribution to continue this life saving program. The Peace Corps Fund Morocco RPCV Barbara Ferris (above, left), Founder and President of the Independent Women's Democracy Fund, is shown at her booth promoting the Peace Corps Fund with Alison Blosser, a Program Associate for the Center for Civil Society and Governance. The Peace Corps Fund was founded to support programs, projects and activities conducted by Returned Peace Corps Volunteers to implement the Third Goal of the Peace Corps Act - helping Americans understand the people and cultures of other countries - and thereby making our country better informed and more engaged in world affairs. Welcome from Maryland Returned Volunteers and the Shriver Center The main program began in the auditorium as Hugh Pickens, Vice President of the Maryland Returned Volunteers, welcomed everyone on behalf of the Maryland Returned Volunteers, the Shriver Center, and Peace Corps Online and introduced Summer Rosswog (above, right) who talked about the Shriver Center and welcomed the group on behalf of the Shriver Peaceworker Fellows Program to UMBC and said how pleased the Shriver Center was to co-host this event. Summer talked about the history of the Peaceworker Program and how it was established by Tim Shriver in honor of Sargent Shriver on his 70th birthday and how it is a graduate program to educate leaders in promoting peace and social justice, the lifelong work of Shriver. The program was formed at the same time (1985) as the formation of Peace Corps Fellows/USA . It is separate from the Peace Corps Fellows but shares the 3rd Goal of Peace Corps: "To strengthen Americans' understanding of the world and its peoples - to bring the world back home." "Peace" comes from Peace Corps and Sargent Shriver's broader idea of building lasting structures of peace at home and abroad. "Worker" comes from the pacifist communitarian Catholic Worker Movement of Dorothy Day and Peter Maurin, achieving social change through service and activism. The Peaceworker Program is unique among the various Fellows/USA programs because of its interdisciplinary cohort structure. Weekly, first and second year Peaceworkers (approximately 16 total) participate in and lead ethical reflection sessions that tie their service, individual studies, and issues of social justice, leadership, and non-violence together. Not only does this and other cohort activities produce more astute graduate students and community leaders, but reflecting and acting as a cohort creates a Peaceworker network of service and activism that extends beyond graduation-a lasting structure of peace in and of itself. Introduction of Jack Vaughn by C. Payne Lucas of Africare Thirty years ago C. Payne Lucas co-authored a book, "Keeping Kennedy's Promise, that many regard as the best book ever written about the history of the Peace Corps - a history that contains a critical appraisal of the decisions that were made during the early days of the Peace Corps that have guided the agency ever since. C. Payne recently retired as President of Africare where he worked for 30 years. Before that he was one of the first Peace Corps Country Directors and later head of the Africa Region at Peace Corps Headquarters. He introduced and talked about his friend and colleague for the past 40 years, Jack Vaughn: Jack Hood Vaughn was born in Columbus, Montana in 1920, the son of Elijah H. (L.H. for short) and Blair (Cox) Vaughn. He attended the Albion Public Schools and graduated from Albion High School in 1939. While as a youth, Jack became interested in the sport of boxing, since his first name was the same as the famous boxer Jack Dempsey. Jack would spar with area boxers on the third floor of his father's building where a makeshift gymnasium was located. Jack won the Golden Gloves state championship, and for many years made his living as a professional boxer. He later served as the head boxing coach at the University of Michigan. Internationally, Jack is most well known for being the second Director of the Peace Corps, beginning in 1966. In addition, he was U.S. Ambassador to Panama and Columbia, and the president of Planned Parenthood for many years. Other credits include director of the foreign language programs of Sesame Street, Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Development Institute, U.S. Coordinator of the Alliance for Progress, and President of the Pierce Energy Corporation. Jack currently lives in Tucson, Arizona and at 82 is definitely not retired, but is active as ever after a lifetime of exemplary public service. His calling card states, "Writer, consultant, environmentalist, and more things than you can shake a stick at." He currently is chairman of ECOTRUST in Portland, Oregon and travels to Central America several times a year. Excerpts from the Talk by Jack Vaughn Following are excerpts from Jack Vaughn's talk. We will be publishing further excerpts in future issues of Peace Corps Online. Development and Bureaucracy Before I start I would like to give credit to the great book that Kevin Lowther and C. Payne Lucas did called "Keeping Kennedy's Promise." If I was giving advice to someone going out as a volunteer or as a staff member today, I would say - read "Keeping Kennedy's Promise" - because all the lessons are there. The other credit is to someone you may not know - my guiding star - Peter Drucker - the leading management authority of the last century and the most unbelievably intelligent person I ever met. But he has written a book- "The New Realities" and the realities are newer today than they were in 1989 when he wrote the book. Drucker has focused for a long time on development: How do we today as the world's richest and largest country help our friends around the world? We now know that development is not easy - we know that it is not fast - we know that it first makes poverty more visible and harder to accept - we know that it means hard work. We know that its foundations are education and competence rather than capital investment. We know that development cannot be given - it must be achieved. We know that for development to occur, there has to be a foundation. This is a situation where there is a tendency to be a bit cynical - C. Payne Lucas and I have seen it all - the efforts to transfer technology abroad. And the truth is that overall, we haven't done too well. We had a great success in the Marshall Plan; under FDR there was a Good Neighbor policy headed by Nelson Rockefeller - and then a Point 4 program. And finally we had a monstrous bureaucracy called USAID. We were saved at the start in the Peace Corps by not being a part of USAID which would have ended it - we would not have got out of the starting blocks. Because even though we are working with underdeveloped countries, these countries have enormous bureaucracies themselves. Can you imagine AID going to Liberia and you have this huge gringo bureaucracy and a huge local bureaucracy which basically does nothing but provide employment? It would be like two hippos with severe arthritis trying to make love - it doesn't work well. So where does that leave the Peace Corps? The Peace Corps is not a part of AID because we are not a bureaucracy - if we were we would be dead in the water. Jack Kennedy wanted to consolidate all of foreign aid - and he pushed very hard to make Peace Corps part of USAID and if that had happened Peace Corps would have been stillborn. We are the boogie woogie man of USAID. We are out there keeping people honest. What works in Development Over the years we have learned some things - what works and what doesn't work in development. And we have learned that what works - what the world needs desperately is campaigns. Campaigns win wars. Campaigns get people elected. Without campaigns you cannot magnify the individual volunteer effort. It is the core. You've got to have a campaign. If it is not a campaign it will not work to transfer technology. The joy of the Peace Corps is that we have learned after 40 years that it can be perpetuated - you can have campaign after campaign after campaign. And there is one example that can't be denied and it happened in UNICEF. I personally have a very low opinion of United Nations special agencies - because they are such big bureaucracies. But there is one exception - and that was done by Jim Grant who was the head of UNICEF. He was concerned by the unwarranted, outrageous deaths of infants worldwide from diarrhea. There was a little deal called oral rehydration salts - that could keep kids from dying. And he used to save 3 or 4 million infants a year. The slogan of the campaign was "walk for diarrhea" - I told him to change it to "quickstep for diarrhea". Even though it was United Nations - they used a campaign to get things done. If that doesn't happen - accelerated development in the third world just won't happen. Two or three years ago there was a special report from the United Nations on what caused the Third world to stay stagnant and not become part of the second world. What they found was that it was Bad Government. The report cost $20 million. I don't know a Peace Corps volunteer who couldn't have told them that after the end of the first month in country. They could have saved the United Nations $20M. Of course there are other things - Bad Justice, and Bad Education. If I were Jack Kennedy starting the Alliance for Progress in 1961 again, my total thrust would have been reform in these areas. What makes a Volunteer Successful? I had a wonderful experience 12 years ago. I was on the committee to select 20 new mid-level USAID executives out of 60 candidates. We made the selection and it turned out that all 20 were former Peace Corps volunteers. This really got my attention. We had one more session - I said I'd like to have an hour more with the members of the selection committee. The members of the committee were all stars - Ph.d's, Phi Beta Kappa, MBA's and I asked them what made the Peace Corps volunteers special? They said that the former Peace Corps volunteers were more mature, they were broad gauge, they seemed to have more interests that revolved around people and not around statistics, and they spoke the language. You know one of the big problems that we had in the early Peace Corps was that we didn't give enough emphasis to language. We started out with a requirement of 50 hours of language and if you are going to be a community development type - you have to be able to talk to the people. You are ready to go out and conquer the world and you find yourself limited to saying things like "My grandpa's viagra pill is on top of granny's pillow" and not much more. That really wasn't fair - with a little pushing we pushed it to 150 hours and what we really needed was 300 hours. But how do you know that you are selecting the right people to join the Peace Corps. How do you select the successful volunteers. And we would fake it. This was a question that I used to pose to the head of selection at the Peace Corps who was the head of the Psychiatry Department at the University of Michigan. And we never did know. Charlie Peters was the head of evaluation at the Peace Corps and he went on to found the "Washington Monthly" magazine after he left the Peace Corps at the end of his 5 year tour. Just before Charlie Peters left the Peace Corps he came to me and said the we have done a little secret experiment to try to find out what makes a successful volunteer and more importantly see how you can tell if you have selected the right volunteer to send. Here is what he found. He had 600 highly successful volunteers who were rated by peers, leaders, trainers, everybody graded these volunteers as successful or outstanding in some way. Then we had 600 failures - people who didn't get through training, or came home early, or they were just kind of a nuisance. And then the control, a random 600 for a total of 1800 volunteers. And we went back and tried to find out what made for success in the Peace Corps. And we were brought up short because back in those days we required 12 letters of recommendation to be accepted into training as a Peace Corps volunteer. And when we looked at the volunteers who were a success, the letters of recommendation all looked like they had been written by the same person. And in every case we found the same descriptive adjectives. And here's what they were. They had nothing to do with the then current feeling of success from "What makes Sammy run?" an aggressive, take charge person. Not at all - it was quite the opposite. The things that were written about the volunteers who were highly successful were almost like the boy scout credo - the volunteer is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, courteous, friendly, kind, cheerful, thrifty, clean, and reverent. But more specifically the successful volunteers are good listeners - he or she is a very good listener. The successful volunteer has a good sense of humor. The successful volunteer is tough and doesn't quit. The successful volunteer is articulate and has a good mind. All these things. Had we used those criteria the entire selection staff would have walked - which they threatened to do. We never did it but wouldn't it be great to use those criteria to save so much pain, to save so much money, and to get the right people. So I would like to conclude that I hope that all of you will consider joining the Peace Corps or join it again and that all of you get there because you are trustworthy, loyal, and true.

By Walter James Murray on Wednesday, June 11, 2003 - 12:45 pm: Edit Post When I served with the Peace Corps in Brazil (Brazil II) 1962-64, Jack Vaughn came to our site at Bom Jesus da Lapa in Bahia and spent the night. All local volunteers had been invited and met with him. At the end of a busy day, Jack, Leo Fanning (our project leader) and I opened a bottle of Scotch (Grants) that I had bought in the village and we relaxed over a nip or two and good conversation. Jack is a nice guy and I will never forget his visit. Jim Murray, St.Paul By Ed Glab on Friday, June 13, 2003 - 8:06 pm: Edit Post Jack came to my barriada home in Mariscal Ramon Castilla in Rimac on the outskirts of Lima, Peru in 1966 or 1967. I can't recall exactly. What I do remember is that we had a relaxed, informal good time talking, drinking and eating with a bunch of other volunteers. After he left we all decided that he had more than filled those big shoes of Sargent Shriver. My Peace Corps experience was the defining moment of my life and has since shaped everything else I've done. By Earl M.

On one occasion I have returned from a trip across the country interviewing perspective candidates. I had interviewed a candidate in the Denver airport. However, my gut told me to ask to meet the family so we drove to Greeley. This candidate had not involved the family in this decision, which included two teenage children. When I forwarded a "thank you but no thank you letter" he wrote his Senator and asked how could the Peace Corps have sent a young inexperienced person to interview a senior executive of Martin Marietta. When the "rush" folder landed on my desk with a note from Jack, I met with him. I explained that as a RPCV who had two APCD's in as many years because spouses and or family were unhappy. I said to Jack, "If you send this person it will be a disservice to Volunteers. This candidate is not PC material." I further requested permission to spend time interviewing family members of serious candidates if there is need. This permission was granted. Jack asked that I draft a response to the Senator for his signature, which was done. A true team builder. Earl M. Brown, Jr. RPCV CD/ PNG 1992-1994 CD/Guyana 2001- Present By Peter V Teal (c-69-254-202-203.hsd1.az.comcast.net - 69.254.202.203) on Thursday, February 07, 2008 - 8:06 pm: Edit Post My Brother in law, Sam Brown who was the director of the peace corps under Jimmy Carter, is in tucson and and we would like to contact Mr Vaughn. I can not find a phone number. Can anyone help me? By I. Lynn Rinehart (76.176.38.230) on Sunday, March 11, 2012 - 9:55 pm: Edit Post1962-1964: Sometime in late 1962 or early 1963, Jack Vaughn visited the Peace Corps home of myself and my PCV partners Joe Jaycox, recent recipient of the JFK Award, and Clayton "Tyke" Marshall. He not only was a good Poker player, he also braved swimming in the water around our home on stilts at the end of a boardwalk.This was in Santa Rosa de Agua, on the edge of Lake Maracaibo in Venezuela. We all assumed it was safer at the END of the boardwalk since there were no other sanitary facilities other than a hole on our back porch. 1968 or 1969: A psychologist friend of mine in Whittier, CA, asked me if the Peace Corps hired psychologists on a short term basis. I said yes and called the Peace Corps office and asked to speak to Jack. He came right on the line and told me he had just received a request from the Philippines. My friend called Jack and he was hired within 20 minutes. 1972: Jack visited my home in Chula Vista, CA,and met with the small group of RPCVs in San Diego County. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING, JACK!

Ponca City, We love you The writings and reflections of a native of Ponca City, Oklahoma. « What are ConocoPhillips Plans for Ponca City? | | What Makes People Love Where They Live? » The Pioneer Woman Models Come Home Commissioned by oilman E. W. Marland and erected in 1930, the Pioneer Woman statue stands at the center of Ponca City’s civic life. The result of a sculptural competition, twelve of the world’s leading artists each produced a three foot bronze of their conception of the Pioneer Woman. The bronzes toured the United States and were a sensation in New York City where they were viewed by hundreds of thousands of people at the Reinhardt Galleries and written up in Time Magazine and by the New York Times. Over 750,000 cast votes for their favorite and Bryant Baker’s “Confident” was the selection of the people. The twelve original bronzes from the competition are still in existence and since 1940 have been at Woolaroc Museum located near Bartlesville, 75 miles from Ponca City. Three years ago, in July, 2007, I published a story on the web about the Models of the Pioneer Woman Statue that are housed at Woolaroc Museum and why "The Pioneer Woman Models Should Return to Ponca City." This year through the efforts of Carl and Carolyn Renfro in Ponca City, Bob Fraser in Bartlesville, and many others, copies of the models came home to Ponca City and were unveiled on April 22, 2010 - the 80th anniversary of the unveiling of the original Pioneer Woman Statue - and are now on display in the Marland Mansion. When I found out a year ago that the models would be returning to Ponca City, I decided to expand on the article I wrote in 2007 and do some additional research on the history of the sculptural competiiton that E. W. Marland set in motion in 1926 to select which one of the twelve models would become the Pioneer Woman Statue. In addition to researching over 20 primary sources about the competition, another part of my research process included doing in-depth interviews with the principal partipants who brought the models home to Ponca City so I was very pleased that Carl Renfro, Bob Fraser, and John Free each had a lengthy interview with me. After all the effort at research, writing and placing the finished article, I am now at last happy to report that the article I wrote in February, 2010 about the Pioneer Woman Models has been published as a 10-page feature story in the August issue of "Oklahoma Magazine." The article, published by the Oklahoma Heritage Association, is called "The Pioneer Woman Models Come Home" and the magazine's editor, Gini Moore Campbell, did an outstanding job of editing and laying out the story. If you would like to read the story and don't have access to the magazine, I have put a copy of the article up on the web. Just click on

Contact Us | Stanford University | Precourt Institute for Energy Development of a Thermodynamically Based Method of Incorporating Environmental Impact into Decision Making for Energy Christopher Edwards (PI), Adam P. Simpson (RA) With the supply of conventional energy resources depleting at their fastest rates and the environmental and societal impacts of their use better understood, there is an increasing desire to use alternative resources and technologies that lessen our dependence on conventional resources and reduce environmental and societal impacts. In order to determine which alternative energy resources and technologies to pursue, the potential technologies need to be compared based on an energetic, economic, and environmental basis. Currently, there are a number of well established methods for quantifying an energy technology�s energetic and economic performance. However, there are no comparable, fundamentally sound methods available for measuring overall environmental performance. The objective of this research is to fill this gap by developing an analytical method for quantifying the environmental performance of energy technologies based on fundamental scientific principles, namely thermodynamics. The production of transportation fuels will be used as a test case in developing this method. However, the method will be general enough to be applied to any set of energy technologies. Transportation fuels provide an excellent test case because of the number of potential feedstocks (crude oil, tar sands, biomass, natural gas, coal, water) and production pathways (refining, reforming, Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, fermentation) available for making a range of commercial transportation fuels (gasoline, diesel, ethanol, methanol, hydrogen). The environmental performance of a pathway (from feedstock extraction to final commercial fuel) includes two parts: (1) the environmental impact caused by the effluents of a pathway, and (2) the environmental services required to support a pathway, specifically the production of the feedstock. In order to quantify these parts, and therefore the overall environmental performance, this research will utilize the underlying, ecology-based concept of embodied energy (emergy) in conjunction with the thermodynamic-based definition of free energy (exergy). Separating the environmental performance into its upstream and downstream parts allows for each part to be quantified and analyzed separately. Each part can be used individually as an environmental performance metric or combined to form a single metric since both are based on free energy. Another advantage of the proposed method is that the environmental performance of a technology is quantified independently from its energetic and economic performance. In many ways, this work provides the final piece needed for developing a comprehensive multi-criteria analysis technique for measuring economic, energetic, and environmental performance. With such a multi-criteria technique, complex energy options, such as alternative fuel production pathways, can be compared based on quantitative, independent metrics � energy efficiency, cost, and environmental performance.

Penjihad's Blog "To comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable" Anti-Muslim myth-buster Women And The Myth Of “Honor” Women have been held hostage to a sense of “honor” all over the world, they have been placed on high pedestals to symbolize glory, honor, freedom…purity, chastity, refuge; so much has been placed on the collective shoulders of womanhood, that it is impossible for women to survive as free beings in the way men do. In itself, this may not be such a burden except that transgressions of the “virtues” women are presumed to represent, often leads to savage deaths of either the people (men) involved in such “transgressions” or, of the women themselves. Wars have been fought over women and women are also the first victims of wars; they are the “collateral losses” when houses are bombed into oblivion, in order to kill “suspects”, they are the victims of rapes and sexual exploitation during and after wars and occupation. Seldom though, is there any discussion of the miseries of the abducted and raped women; seldom mentioned by the side of the perpetrators and seldom acknowledged by the victims’ people…”terrible things happened” is all that shows up in pages of history. US, Germany, Russia, Yugoslavia, Rwanda, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh…no country has ever risen above the mass rapes of women of the vanquished people by the victors and in almost every case the stories have been buried, not by the perpetrators as much as by the nations of the victims…in defense of their national “honor”. The independence and partition of India and Pakistan was a violent upheaval that cannot be justified, even by the “prize” of “Freedom”. Estimates of the dead vary, but a million people dead on both sides of the India-Pakistan border is a conservative number. What was understood to be a peaceful bifurcation, was turned on its head after extremists on both sides, whipped up anti-’Other’ hysteria; Hindus and Sikhs forcing Muslims to leave India and Muslims forcing Hindus and Sikhs to leave Pakistan.

Occasionally, I use the term “Jihad” in my articles, as the action needed to help make changes to better the ills of society. I often get feedback in which people worry more about my use of the word “Jihad”, than they do about the injustice about which I wrote; some wonder why I would use such a charged word among non-Muslims. I intentionally use “Jihad”, because I want to jolt Muslims AND non-Muslims; “Jihad” cannot and must not become de-legitimized just because some people do not care to understand the true meaning of a sacred term and decide to associate it with terrible things. “Jihad” springs from the Arabic “Jhd” which means “struggle”; “Jihad” means the act of struggle, “Mujahid” (Plural, Mujahideen) is someone who is doing “Jihad”. At the core (the highest level), it is the duty of every Muslim to struggle against the basic negative predispositions we all have as humans…greed, envy, jealousy, rage, deceit, theft, murder etc. At the next level, it is the duty of every Muslim to fight against the ills that beset Mankind…hunger, disease, homelessness, illiteracy, injustice, lack of water, pollution etc., At the least important level, Muslims are required to fight those who attack us AFTER we have exhausted all other efforts towards peaceful resolution. Even then, if peace is at hand, even at mid-battle, one has to stop and accept terms that are just and preserve the dignity of all parties. I would imagine these are things that every person needs to subscribe to, not just Muslims. Yet, there is a growing body of opinion in the non-Muslim West, that “Jihad” can ONLY be equated with murder and mayhem and thus, anyone using the word, can be presumed to be associated with supporting murder and mayhem. I would suggest that supporters of the body of opinion that would like to taint “Jihad”, are people who consider themselves at “War!” with Islam, Muslims and Arabs. They may be a growing number of people, but they are wrong and it would be wrong for Muslims to lend credence to this opinion by shying away from “Jihad” in word, or in action. Not so long ago, the Jewish organization ADL, launched an attack on some Muslim groups because the Muslims were wearing the Muslim Affirmation… “Shehada” (“There is no God but one God, and Mohammed is His prophet”) on their headbands and the ADL said that the Shehada stood for terrorism. There are a growing number of bigots who state that Islam’s holy book, the Quran, is a symbol of evil and violence. What should Muslims do? Abandon the Shehada and the Quran? Some may say that we should just not use the Shehada on headbands, why not? Either the Affirmation (Shahada) is sacred or it is not; if it is sacred, then wherever it is used, as long as the use is not profane, is also sacred. If the Shehada is used in a profane manner, then the reflection is not upon the Shehada, but on the abuser. Hitler took the Swastika as his symbol and today, it strikes fear and revulsion in the hearts of many, especially Jews. However, the Swastika is thousands of years old and among Hindus, the “Savas Tika” (“Peace sign”) is a holy symbol, it is used to adorn temples and used by Hindus at almost every occasion…it can be clockwise or counter-clockwise. Should the Hindus be asked to abandon the Savas tika as a symbol? If we dared to make such an absurd demand, we would be laughed off the stage. The Star of David strikes fear and revulsion among millions of Palestinian men, women and children; should the Jews be asked to abandon the Star of David as their symbol? I am betting millions of Bosnian Muslims shudder a little when they see a Crucifix, or the Christian Orthodox cross, because of the genocide of Bosnian Muslims by the Serbs and the Croats in the name of Christianity in the 1990s; should those symbols be cast aside? The principle of “use it or lose it” is quite valid here. If we retreat for any reason, we are acknowledging that our sacred and holy terms or symbols are sometimes themselves, evil. Once we give that ground, then we can no longer use our Savas Tikas, our Crucifixes or our terms…THEN, the bad guys have truly won. I believe that as reasoned and rational people, we cannot allow ourselves to fall victim to populist bigotries. We must look at what the symbol actually stands for, rather than associate it with the negative events that were tied to it by evil people; we must be able to differentiate between Nazi Swastikas on one hand, and symbols and words that are sacred, on the other. Jihad; it is a sacred duty for every Muslim, Christian, Jew, Hindu…for every human being of good will.

WATCH: Two Dance Videos That'll Make Your Day Share Tweet E-mail Print By Eyder Peralta A boss learning some moves from his employees. We'll get back to the news in no time. But first, some fun. If you've followed this blog, you'll know that we like a good dance video. Today, we've come upon two. First (hat tip: Gawker) is a video of Josh Griffith, a self-described "big nature nerd/mountain man boss," taking dance lessons from younger members of the California Conservation Corps. Griffith has definitely been paying attention: The second (and we warn you there's one stray expletive at the end there) shows 88-year-old Nana. The video has been watched more than a million times since it was uploaded March 6. All we can say is: We hope we grow up to be her:Copyright 2013 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/.

Exploring Toronto — And Your Chance to Win Posted on Tuesday, November 15th, 2011 by Alison J. Stein 2 comments I’ve just returned from an action-packed trip to Toronto, where I learned to make hats, decorate cupcakes, and mix cocktails; where I tasted locally-brewed sake and oysters from all over the world, where I took a curator’s tour of one of my favorite museums anywhere — The Bata Shoe Museum — and even got to poke around in their artifact room! I attended something called a Literary Death Match, and then lost a great deal of unneeded dry skin during a sublime scrubbed with local herbs at the Ritz-Carlton spa, which is also where I stayed. And I did it all for you.

Top retirement funds lose $1 trillion January 28, 2009 by Personal Liberty News Desk A disturbing report from a leading money management newspaper suggests that U.S. pension funds have sustained heavy losses in 2008. The survey by Pensions & Investments revealed that the loss of close to $1 trillion in the year ended September 2008 represented the worst decline of the 1,000 largest plans that it has tracked for 30 years. The fourth quarter of 2008 made it even worse – based on P&I estimates assets fell another $754 billion, or 11.8 percent, to a cumulative loss of $1.7 trillion for the 15 months ended Dec. 31. According to the newspaper’s editor Nancy K. Webman, this was largely due to collapsing returns from equity markets. Kevin P. Quirk, founding partner and principal of industry researcher Casey Quirk & Associates, observed that the results may spell an end to the corporate defined-benefit plans. Meanwhile, Watson Wyatt Worldwide reported that retirement assets of the 11 largest foreign pension markets fell 19 percent in 2008, wiping out some $5 trillion. The only country that was spared major losses was Germany, where funds are characterized by high bond allocations. Filed Under: Liberty News, Wealth Personal Liberty News Desk Email this author | All posts by Personal Liberty News Desk View Comments to “Top retirement funds lose $1 trillion” s c mailen, jr. When there is a loss of 1 trillion dollars of ANYTHING, there must be an explanation. I suggest 1] those fund managers are utterly incompetent, or 2] they knew what they were doing, and were not concerned about the results, or 3] if they were told how to invest, someone or some group had to make that decision. I have deep sympathy for those who lost their retirement funds. However, it is safe to say that this was not an accident in the strict sense. I can only hope that whoever is responsible will be singled out, and that their extreme punishment will serve as an THE example of what not to do with retirement funds. No, this was deliberate, done by the “Elites”, to bring us so far down, we will beg for NWO. Only a revolution, and blood in the streets will change this forecast. I have hear from other people that the country is heading for a complete melt down.

Petite Family Reflections and recounts of our family journey... Joe had his annual heart check-up today. They do an echocardiogram and just check things over. When he's a little older, they'll do a stress test. But, he's in great shape. Even though we knew that, it's always reassuring to get a good report. It reminds me of those scary days when he was an infant and we didn't know which way things would go. Today, the only worry was about Joe's annoyance with with all the sticky goo left from the sensor sticker things they use to monitor his heart. He had to tediously peel them off, one at a time, deciding whether the quick-rip or slow and steady removal approach was best. By the end, he was opting for the quick method! Flo came along for the ride today, too, because she had a Spanish tutoring session just down the street. So, after Joe's appointment, we hung out at the medical center for a bit, then drove her over to her lesson at the community college. Joe and I decided to park and snooze for the hour and a half lesson time. Joe brought his tablet along to read and play a game, but, I had no problem catching a quick nap while things were quiet and I could recharge for the rest of the day! Posted at 10:46 PM in Flo, Health & Wellness, Joe, Spanish | Permalink What Color is Your Leisure Suit? Since we were already out for her piano lesson, afterwards, Flo and I sought out a quiet place for her to study her Spanish vocabulary a bit, before her tutoring session tomorrow. We ended up at Martin's grocery store cafe. Flo got caught up on things, and we had a good laugh about some of the words... like "leisure suit." Ha! Posted at 05:34 PM in Flo, Homeschooling, Spanish | Permalink Darren and I met in French class, in 1988 at Kennebecasis Valley High School, in New Brunswick, Canada. I had just moved there with my parents when my Dad's job transferred him there. We dated from 1988 to 1993, when I left college in my second year, and had to return to the United States, since I could not work in Canada, as a U.S. citizen. At this point, we were faced with the issue of which direction our relationship would take.... should we get married (I was only 20) or give the long distance thing a try? Well, we gave the long distance thin

The artist rendered the machine in a dry and impersonal painting style, akin to the precise mechanical drawing found in architectural plans. Duchamp was fascinated with the rotating drums of the chocolate grinder, which had a sexual connotation for him, and the machine would reappear several times in his work, most notably in the lower section of The Bride Stripped Bare By Her Bachelors, Even (The Large Glass) of 1915-23.

A Problem from Hell Amazon.Com Terrorism & Security Bestsellers (c) 2002-2004 Phillip Carter Pentagon announces U.S.-Australia deal for Gitmo detainee The Pentagon issued a press release today announcing the terms of an agreement for the military tribunal of David Hicks, an Australian being held at Guantanamo Bay after his capture in late 2001 in Afghanistan. Pentagon lawyers negotiated this deal with Australian authorities, who were concerned that military tribunals might provide less procedural and substantive due process than ordinary American criminal trials. Mr. Hicks was already on a short list of tribunal candidates. With this agreement, I think it's a safe bet that he will be one of the first tried by these procedures at Gitmo. The U.S.-Australian agreement focused mostly on the procedural issues for Mr. Hicks' eventual trial, including: The prosecution has reviewed the evidence against the Australian detainees, and based on that evidence, the prosecution would not seek the death penalty; The security and intelligence circumstances of Mr Hick’s case are such that it would not warrant monitoring of conversations between him and his counsel; If David Hicks is charged, the prosecution does not intend to rely on evidence in its case-in-chief requiring closed proceedings from which the accused could be excluded; and The U.S. and Australian government will continue to work towards putting arrangements in place to transfer Hicks, if convicted, to Australia to serve any penal sentence in accordance with Australian and U.S. law. Subject to any necessary security restrictions, military commissions will be open, the media present and appropriately cleared representatives of the accused’s government may observe the proceedings; If an accused is convicted, the accused’s government may make submissions to the Review Panel; If eligible for trial, and subject to security requirements and restrictions, an accused may be permitted to talk to appropriately cleared family members via telephone, and two appropriately cleared family members would be able to attend their trial; and, An accused may choose to have an appropriately cleared foreign attorney as a consultant to the Defense Team. Foreign attorney consultant access to attorney-client information, case material or the accused will be subject to appropriate security clearances and restrictions and determined on a case-by-case basis.Analysis: This is a really interesting development in the saga of the U.S. military commissions planned for members of Al Qaeda. On the big-picture level, this development represents a retreat of sorts for the Pentagon lawyers who drafted the military commission regulations. Essentially, the Pentagon has given ground on a number of key issues, such as attorney-client monitoring, the use of classified materials, and the use of ex parte proceedings. I think that critics of the tribunals will seize on this agreement to say "the Pentagon is willing to give these things up because they recognize that these procedures are inherently unjust." I think the situation's a bit more complex, but that's the likely argument to be made. On the micro-level, each of these provisions makes an interesting statement about the nature of the charges against Mr. Hicks, and the evolution of thinking within the Pentagon about the tribunals: 1. "[T]he prosecution would not seek the death penalty" To me, this means the case against Hicks is pretty flimsy -- kind of like the case against John Walker Lindh. I think this guy was probably just a foot soldier -- on the wrong side at the wrong time in the wrong country. Unfortunately, that's a violation of U.S. law, and if he didn't follow the rules for combatancy in the Law of Armed Conflict, it could be a violation of international law too. But it's not a major violation, and it certainly doesn't deserve the death penalty. This interpretation of Mr. Hicks' case is buttressed by the following clause, which states "The security and intelligence circumstances of Mr Hick’s case are such that it would not warrant monitoring of conversations between him and his counsel." Clearly, the Pentagon wouldn't agree to this if they thought Mr. Hicks had any residual intelligence value whatsoever. 2. "[T]he prosecution does not intend to rely on evidence in its case-in-chief requiring closed proceedings from which the accused could be excluded." This means that the Pentagon does think it will use classified evidence at trial. The inference that I draw from this is that Mr. Hicks was a member of the Taliban, but not Al Qaeda, and that the U.S. government doesn't need to use any intelligence sources or assets to describe his membership in that quasi-governmental organization. If this guy were a member of Al Qaeda, a shadowy organization at best, we'd probably need to use some classified evidence to show that. 3. "[M]ilitary commissions will be open, the media present and appropriately cleared representatives of the accused’s government may observe the proceedings". Again, we're not looking at a deep sleeper in Al Qaeda or a leader of that global terror network -- we're looking at a foot soldier. Given the likely facts of his case, there's no reason to shut the media out. Indeed, if this is a slam-dunk case and if the facts are relatively innocuous, this coudl be the deception/diversion/obscuration effort for the rest of the military tribunals. If the Hicks tribunal goes first, it will get a lot of publicity -- more than it probably deserves on the basis of the facts of the case. Let's say the Pentagon throws the doors wide open, and uses this as a case study for how the tribunals can work in a kindler & gentler manner. After the publicity fades, and after public opinion switches to support for the tribunals, the Pentagon can roll out the real bad guys -- and use the full panoply of procedural devices such as ex parte hearings, classified evidence, and closed trials. Recommendation: Look for the articles tomorrow by Jess Bravin (Wall Street Journal), Richard Serrano (LA Times), and Charles Lane or Dan Eggen (Washington Post). They do the best reporting on these issues, and I suspect they'll have the best analysis in tomorrow's paper. posted by Phillip Carter at 17:37 Army transfers Yee; announces new charges The case of CPT James Yee, the Muslim chaplain suspected of espionage at Guantanamo Bay, took a strange turn today when the Army decided to release him from the military brig at Charleston to regular duty at Fort Benning, GA. The Army also added new counts to his current charges of mishandling classified information, including allegations of adultery, storing pornography on a government computer, and disobeying a lawful order. The next step for CPT Yee is an Art. 32 hearing, which is somewhat like a grand jury hearing, and then he may face a general court martial for his actions. Suffice to say, the stakes are much lower than when I wrote this article arguing for capital punishment in this case. But I still think there is more here than meets the eye. I expect we'll see more charges in the near future -- more to follow. An amazing story of human kindness in war Bryan Gruley tells a great story today in the Wall Street Journal (subscription required) about Lt. John Withers, U.S. Army, and what he did at the tail end of WWII to save two Jewish concentration camp survivors. The story is more remarkable because Lt. Withers was black, at a time when the Army was bitterly segregated, and he could have faced serious sanctions for violating the general orders regarding the treatment of displaced persons at the end of the war. As the story relates, Lt. Withers' humanity won out over his orders. The two young men stood trembling before Army Lt. John Withers, dressed in the rags they'd worn at the recently liberated Dachau concentration camp. Sores pocked their bony arms and legs. Decades later, the lieutenant would remember how their sunken eyes sought mercy. But in 1945, near the end of World War II, they posed a problem. Lt. Withers was a black leader in an all-black supply convoy. In violation of Army orders, his men were hiding the refugees. Lt. Withers planned to have the strangers removed -- until he saw them. They stayed with his unit for more than a year, two Jewish survivors of the Holocaust hiding among blacks from segregated America. The soldiers nicknamed them "Peewee" and "Salomon." They grew close to Lt. Withers. By the time he bid them farewell, they'd grown healthy again. Quartermaster units had orders to avoid contact with the Dachau prisoners, Lt. Withers later recalled. His superiors worried that supply convoys would pick up diseases and spread them to other Army units. Researchers at the National Archives couldn't locate specific records of such orders but said other records indicate that Army brass were acutely concerned about health risks posed by Dachau prisoners. Lt. Withers had learned that it was especially important for blacks to follow orders in the segregated Army. He recalled worrying that sheltering Dachau refugees might get him a dishonorable discharge -- and then there would be no GI Bill for him. He assumed the two refugees were war-toughened men who were exploiting his soldiers' sympathy. So he was unprepared when the soldiers brought Peewee and Salomon. The refugees seemed shrunken and frightened, really just boys, he recalled thinking. Peewee would later recall that his knees felt weak as he waited for the lieutenant's verdict. He assumed that his immediate family was dead. He was 16. He had no home, no money and no clothing but what he wore. He wanted no more part of the Allies' displaced-persons camps. In the chaos following the war, he had no idea what to do next. Lt. Withers assumed that Peewee and Salomon would be returned to Dachau, where thousands of former prisoners were still convalescing, according to Army dispatches from the summer of 1945. He'd been to Dachau on a bread-and-milk delivery shortly after it was liberated. He'd seen bodies decomposing in an open ditch, smelled the rotting flesh. How could he send them back? "Keep them," he recalled blurting to his men. "We're going to take care of them." In recent interviews, he struggled to explain why he changed his mind. "I think I identified with them very strongly and instantaneously," he said. He said he also risked losing face with his men. "They were willing to take the chance. If I would have overruled them, I would have been on the wrong side of the decision."Thoughts: This is the kind of story that makes me proud to have been an American army officer. There aren't many armies in the world that can lay claim to this kind of lineage -- as peacemakers and humanitarians as well as warfighters. Lt. Withers was a junior officer who knew what the right thing was -- and he did it, notwithstanding his orders to the contrary. If faced with a similar situation today in Iraq and Afghanistan, I think my peers would probably do the same thing. There's something about the American military officer that transcends more obeyance to orders; that wants to do the right thing. As Lt. Withers said in the story, he couldn't have done anything different, because to do so would have made him lose face in front of his men. American soldiers know the difference between right and wrong; good and evil. In this case, they chose the right path. The Pentagon starts a weblog... sort of New "Penta-blog" service offers RSS/XML feed to the public I've commended the Pentagon's web page before as a great repository for information -- press releases, transcripts of press conferences, and other useful data. DefenseLink is searchable; it keeps stuff on file for a long time; and DefenseLink is pretty well organized for a government website. Now, the Pentagon introduces an RSS/XML feed for defense news junkies who just can't get enough news from inside the Pentagon. This isn't really a weblog, but it's only a couple of steps removed from one. An RSS/XML feed lets interested parties tune in to information in streaming format, much like a weblog. Indeed, many people consume weblogs almost entirely via RSS/XML. In a few years, I think the weblog and RSS/XML formats will become the standard medium for news sites and public affairs offices who want to offer real-time news in a digestable format. Of course, I doubt we'll ever get the SecDef or DepSecDef offering up snarky and irreverent commentary on a Penta-blog . . . but anything's possible. Army reserve starts to see personnel exodus The Boston Globe has an interesting report on a very problematic trend: declining reenlistments among Army reservists coming home from the war on terrorism. For the past two years, Army and Pentagon officials have maintained that they were on glide-path for recruiting and retention, and that repeated mobilizations were not affecting their ability to get and keep quality people. I was always skeptical of those reports, but the Army had the hard data -- not me. Now, it appears that the rumblings in the ranks were true, and that the numbers support what many have thought for some time: repeated mobilizations have begun to decimate the ranks of America's reserves. The Army Reserve has missed its retention goal by 6.7 percent, the second shortfall since fiscal 1997. It was largely the result of a larger than expected exodus of career reservists, a loss of valuable skills because such staff members are responsible for training junior officers and operating complex weapons systems. With extended deployments and increasingly deadly attacks by Iraqi guerrillas, Defense Department officials are scrambling to combat a broader downturn in retention and recruitment that they fear is on the horizon. The US Army, the primary service deployed in Iraq, is offering reenlistment bonuses of $5,000 for soldiers serving there. The Army National Guard is extending an official thank-you to members by arranging services to honor returning soldiers. The Massachusetts National Guard is offering rewards ranging from plaques to NASCAR tickets to members who lure recruits. And throughout the branches, recruitment advertising is up and programs are being launched to make the military seem more family-friendly. The Army also is resorting to a policy called "stop loss" that allows the Pentagon to indefinitely keep soldiers from leaving the service once their time has expired. The policy, used during war, is designed to prevent staffing shortfalls in key sectors. While Pentagon officials have insisted that recruiting and retention figures are mostly at or above expected levels, thanks in part to a soft economy that offers little competition, signs of trouble are emerging. Recruiting for the Massachusetts National Guard, a backup to the professional Army and Air Force, was down 30 percent this year. Nationwide, the Army National Guard has fallen 13 percent short of its recruiting goal, although that deficit was offset by fewer than expected troops leaving the service. Perhaps the most troubling statistic is the drop in retention for the Army Reserve, first disclosed by Army Chief of Staff General Peter Schoomaker on Wednesday in testimony before Congress. The drop was due to the Reserve falling 9.3 percent short of its retention goal among career soldiers.Analysis: Some background is useful here. The Army divides up its reenlistment numbers in countless ways, and it's often hard to figure out which number matters. The big picture is that the Army Reserve missed its reenlistment goal by 6.7%. The first thing is that this does not mean the Army Reserve is losing 6.7% of its total manpower each year. This statistic means that the Army Reserve has fallen 6.7% of its reenlistment target, which is a subset of that larger attrition figure. Here's how it works. Let's say the Army Reserve has 200,000 soldiers who are up for reenlistment/discharge in a given year. The Army headquarters decides to set a reenlistment target of 50%, or 100,000 of those reservists who are getting out. To meet the target, Army Reserve commanders have to convince/persuade that many soldiers to stay in the force. If the Army Reserve missed its target by 6.7%, that means that it got 93,300 reservists to reenlist -- and fell 6,700 soldiers short. Not bad, actually. But not good if the Army Reserve has the same trend for month after month, year after year. The next number is that the Army Reserve missed its "career soldier" retention mark by 9.3 percent. The same math applies, but this pool is different. This group does not include the "first term" soldiers who joined for one hitch and college money. These are the senior sergeants who have been in the reserves for a while, and presumably are pretty close to retirement or already eligble for retirement. These guys have put a lot of time into the reserves, and it says a lot that they're willing to walk away from it. My gut tells me these numbers indicate there's a large pool of guys who basically said "enough" after the last mobilization. (Thanks to the detail-oriented readers who corrected my math above -- I appreciate the feedback) One other note: these are aggregate numbers from across the reserve force. We haven't mobilized the entire Army Reserve or National Guard, just a percentage of it. Presumably, in those units that have been mobilized, these retention numbers are a lot worse. My recent experience indicates that the Reserve and Guard can retain as little as 40% of a unit after mobilization, depending on the mission and the unit's leadership. There are a lot of hollow units out there right now as a result of mobilizations, and the collective decision by soldiers to get out. Is there any good news here? No, and yes. The bad news is that the reserves can't sustain these numbers. If senior sergeants and officers get out in these numbers, it literally decimates the Army Reserves' cadre of leadership, and that has a terrible effect on unit readiness and effectiveness. The good news is that the reserves will gain a lot of recruits from the active force as stop-loss is lifted and soldiers come home in large numbers from Iraq to get off active duty. Typically, the biggest recruitment source for the reserves is the active force. Despite the risk of mobilization, the flow of discharged active-duty soldiers to the reserve forces is still pretty good, and that will fill the reserves with a lot of knowledge and expertise. It may not completely offset this exodus, but it will help. Over time, however, even this won't help. If the Army Reserve and National Guard continues to have the operational tempo it now does, a lot of active-duty veterans will decline the chance to serve in the reserves. They won't want to join up if it simply means a return to active duty. Second, the current operational tempo will continue to attrit units as they come off of their mobilization, at increasingly high numbers. In the reserves, it has increasingly become a question of when you will be mobilized, not if you will be mobilized. Most of these reservists are willing to go once, but I think the threat of a second or third trip to the desert will cause many to decline reenlistment. House committee to hold hearings on LTC West The House Armed Services Committee put out a press release this morning announcing that it would hold hearings on the case of LTC Allen West, a former artillery battalion commander in Iraq who may face a court-martial for allegedly mistreating an Iraqi prisoner. (Thanks to M.L. for the e-mail) At this point, the military inquiry into LTC West is in the preliminary stages. His unit (the 4th Infantry Division) held an emotional Art. 32 hearing last week, and the decision has not yet been made to court martial him. However, an offer to let LTC West resign in lieu of court martial has lapsed, and all tea leaves point to a decision by his CG to try him in court. Based on the information currently available to them, Hunter and McHugh believe that West's actions may well have been necessary to protect the lives and safety of his fellow soldiers and not the actions of a criminal, as he is charged. Hunter is Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee and McHugh is Chairman of the Subcommittee on Total Force, which has jurisdiction over military personnel matters. According to news accounts, the incident in question took place this past August near Tikrit, Iraq, when guerrillas attacked U.S. soldiers under West's command. An informant told U.S. authorities that a local policeman was involved. West ordered the policeman brought in, though he proved uncooperative. West has testified that he fired his pistol near the head of the Iraqi, threatening to kill him in an effort to obtain information to protect his troops. As a result of the tactic, the Iraqi provided information regarding a planned sniper attack on U.S. soldiers. Two insurgents were arrested, a third fled and there were no attacks in the area. West immediately informed his commanding officer of the incident. He is currently facing an inquiry to determine if there is cause for a court-martial. "We are highly disturbed by media accounts that the Army is beginning criminal proceedings against Lt. Col. Allen B. West for taking actions in Iraq that he believed were necessary to protect the lives and safety of his men," stated the Congressmen in a letter to Les Brownlee, Acting Secretary of the Army. "To us, such actions if accurately reported do not appear to be those of a criminal," the letter continues. In addition to the information previously requested, the Congressmen are asking to see a new report. "We are aware the Army has completed a preliminary inquiry regarding whether to proceed to a court martial and would like to review that report," said Hunter and McHugh in a joint statement. "Our interest is in justice. Based on what we know right now, it is more than reasonable to assume that Col. West acted in a manner proportionate to the threat against his soldiers."Analysis: This is really strange. First, it should be said that Congress has the Constitutional authority under Art. I, Sec. 8, to make laws for the governance of the armed forces. But I'm not sure if they have the authority to exercise direct oversight of the military justice system in this fashion. Although Congress passed the statutes (the UCMJ and others) which set up the military justice system, that may be the limit of their authority. Everything else may fall within the President's sphere of responsibility as Commander-in-Chief, per Art. II of the Constitution. So there are Constitutional questions raised by this press release. Second, if the President or SecDef exercised this sort of prerogative, it would almost definitely be seen as a case of "unlawful command influence." According to law and custom, senior officials and higher headquarters are not supposed to intervene from above in courts martial. The 4th Infantry Division's commander, MG Ray Odierno, is supposed to make the decision to try or not to try on his own, on the recommendation of his Art. 32 hearing and the counsel from his Staff Judge Advocate. This move by HASC may give LTC West some ammunition for his appeal if he is ultimately tried and convicted. Finally, even if Congress does have the power to hold this hearing and it's not command influence, I'm not sure this is a wise thing to do. If Rep. Duncan Hunter is truly concerned about the Rules of Engagement in Iraq and other operational law issues, he can hold hearings on that. Indeed, he can subpoena just about anyone he wants on the subject, up to and including the Secretary of Defense. If there is a problem with ROE in Iraq, such a macro-level look may be better for policy reasons than a micro-level look at LTC West's case, or a macro-level look through the lens of LTC West's case. The facts of LTC West's case are, as they say, not good for the defense. In addition to allegedly protecting his unit, he ordered his soldiers to do his "wet work", and then let them be tried by the same military justice system he now stands accused in. If I were the decisionmaker here, I probably wouldn't try LTC West, anymore than I would try some of the other officers who have made tough decisions in wartime. My reason is that I wouldn't want to communicate to commanders in Iraq that they will be second-guessed by a court martial for errors in judgment. Ironically, by intervening here, Congress may be sending that same message on a higher level: if you make a discipline decision we disagree with, we'll hold hearings back in Washington. That may not be the best thing for LTC West, or the Army, or the mission in Iraq. Real combat heroines For those that think women have no place in ground combat, there's this excellent report from Baghdad by Vernon Loeb of the Washington Post, one of the 10 best reporters on the military beat. (Thanks to M.L. for the tip) Loeb writes about several women now serving in Iraq as Army military police soldiers, an MOS where they often find themselves fighting as scouts or infantry. Thanks to tough training and good leadership, gender hasn't gotten in the way of these women's performance in Iraq, as this story shows: Pvt. Teresa Broadwell is in the middle of the maelstrom, standing on tiptoe in the turret of a Humvee in a vain attempt, at 5 feet 4 inches tall, to see through the sight of her M-249 machine gun. American soldiers are down in the street. Iraqis are firing at her truck from the rooflines and alleyways along Highway 9 near the center of this dusty city an hour south of Baghdad. Her lieutenant, Jay Guerrero, jumps out of the Humvee to help rescue his wounded comrades. He needs Broadwell's cover to suppress the Iraqis' withering fire and listens for the distinctive bursts of her potent weapon. Before this gun battle ends, three Americans will be killed and seven wounded. For Broadwell, 20, a year and a half out of high school, having chosen the Army over a modern-dance scholarship to the University of North Texas, her moment of truth in combat has arrived. The Army prohibits women from serving in infantry, artillery and armored units, the combat brigades on the front lines of war. For years, women like Broadwell and her commander in the 194th Military Police Company, Capt. Terri Dorn, have chosen careers in the Military Police Corps because all jobs in the field are open to women (34 of 171 soldiers in Dorn's company are female) -- and it is the closest a woman can get to serving in the infantry. Women MPs have engaged in combat operations before, in Panama in 1989, in the first Gulf War in 1991 and in Bosnia in the mid-1990s, when the peace in what became a peacekeeping mission was still taking root. But their missions were short-lived, and they were designed to support conventional combat troops. In contrast to those previous deployments, the military police are in Iraq for the long haul and they're in the thick of the action. The Army faces a low-intensity counterinsurgency campaign without front lines, in which troops are being asked to move back and forth between peacekeeping and combat. MP companies, with their heavy complements of women, are often performing exactly the same mission as all-male combat units. And the MPs have become the units of choice for many commanders, given their infantry-like capabilities and the extra training they receive in policing and stability operations. When mounted patrols from the 82nd Airborne Division move through Fallujah, the machine gunners standing in Humvee turrets are all male. When military police companies conduct identical patrols throughout Iraq -- in Baghdad, Tikrit and Karbala, to name just a few -- the gunners are quite often women. Analysis: As several of the women point out in this story, the MP corps is really the leading edge for women in the military. It's the closest they get to being in the combat arms -- and many times, the MP corps is a combat force that sees as much action as the infantry. One thing that often gets missed is that MPs are more likely to see other kinds of action, e.g. riot control or hand-to-hand combat, than their infantry brethren. And MPs are also likely to be tapped for urban missions like cordon-and-search, or other "kick in the door" operations. In my experience as an MP officer, women like PVT Broadwell and her commander, CPT Terri Dorn, were the rule, not the exception. Women who join the MP corps and make it through basic training (or officer selection) are typically more motivated and more mentally prepared than their male peers. Though they may lack some of the upper body strength and size of their brethren, they quickly make up for it in marksmanship, street smarts, and interpersonal skills (all important skills for an MP). In fact, the female MP officers I knew were head-and-shoulders above the average male officer, and were often some of the best leaders you could find in uniform. Again, the dynamics of self-selection had a big role here, in that the toughest and most motivated women from West Point and ROTC knew the MP corps was where the action was at. (The same is true for women in the aviation and the MI branches) So what does this mean for the larger debate over women in combat? Well, as I wrote nearly a year ago in the Washington Monthly: In the end, what will really determine public reaction is how well women perform their jobs under fire. On the ground in Afghanistan, women did not participate in the main actions of Operation Anaconda. But since the fighting died down, female MPs have gone out on long infantry patrols with the 82nd Airborne Division, and by most indications perform-ed well. To be fair, they have not seen combat, and haven't performed the most physically demanding tasks the military has to offer. But women have covered 10 to 20 miles of very hard country per day carrying loads of up to 75 pounds, all while living in close quarters with male infantry. And so far, as in the Gulf, the worst predictions have not come true--no reports of mass pregnancies or other issues have come to light in Afghanistan. "I'm learning what grunts do, [and] they learn what I do. As MPs, we search people and look for weapons ... I never thought we would be walking for hours or be on the front," MP Sgt. Nicola Hall told a reporter in Afghanistan after the mission. "[The 82nd Airborne soldiers] have been nothing but respectful to us; as long as you walk, carry your own weight and don't whine, you're respected." Indeed, if mixed-gender units perform as they have in the California desert--and in Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, Kosovo, and Afghanistan--it would strengthen the integrationist trend in several ways. The least likely possibility would be the elimination of all rules barring women from full combat service, from special forces to light infantry. But even if this were to happen, surveys suggest that only a small number of women would apply. And only a fraction of those who do would have the physical ability and fortitude to make it through, say, the crucible of Army ranger school, from which a majority of qualified men wash out before graduation. The second, and more likely, possibility is that certain combat jobs currently off-limits to women would be opened. For instance, women can currently serve in Patriot air-defense units, but not in short-range air-defense or offensive artillery units closer to the front--even though the skill levels are virtually the same. Female soldiers frequently win the Army's highest awards for marksmanship and even participate on the U.S. Olympic marksmanship team--but outside the MPs cannot be snipers. If Saddam's Baathist regime falls to U.S. forces that include women, these kinds of job limitations may collapse, too. Finally, a successful showing by female soldiers is sure to increase pressure on the Army to end the subtle day-to-day discrimination that remains a fact of life for so many female soldiers, from anachronistic "wives clubs" in some units to assignment policies that place a premium on female soldiers willing to defer childbearing indefinitely.I think the proof is in the way that women have performed in Iraq -- both in "major combat operations" and in the guerilla war since 1 May 03. Assessing blame for the Istanbul attacks The Washington Post reports today on the reaction of President Bush and Prime Minister Blair to the bombing in Istanbul, which killed the British consul-general among others. The article is misleadingly headlined "Bush, Blair Say Iraq War Is Not Cause Of Attacks". The story's lead paragraph goes on to say that "President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair declared Thursday that the invasion of Iraq was not to blame for the recent wave of terrorist violence and that bombs that devastated two British facilities in Istanbul . . . ", but the rest of the story (and its quotes) do not support this assertion: "Our mission in Iraq is noble and it is necessary, and no act of thugs or killers will change our resolve or alter their fate," Bush said at a joint news conference with Blair, as tens of thousands of demonstrators protested the Iraq war on streets nearby. "We will finish the job we have begun." The two leaders spoke hours after Britain was stunned by the news that two truck bombs aimed at British targets killed at least 27 people in the Turkish city of Istanbul. British civilian facilities had up to now escaped being targeted in the string of terror attacks that have followed those of Sept. 11, 2001. Blair echoed Bush's remarks, calling for attacking terrorists "wherever and whenever we can."Okay. So far, that's the sort of defiant "still upper lip" rhetoric we expect to hear from political leaders after a terrorist attack. However, the only quote that supports this headline is buried far down in the story: At the news conference, Blair responded with pique when asked if the U.S.-British alliance in Iraq has invited terrorist attacks such as Thursday's. "What has caused the terrorist attack today in Turkey is not the president of the United States, is not the alliance between America and Britain," he said. "What is responsible for that terrorist attack is terrorism, are the terrorists."Analysis: Tony Blair is a brilliant orator and statesman, but I think he's wrong. First of all, his comment is both circular and conclusory. He asserts that terrorism is responsible for the terrorist attack. That says nothing. Moreover, it ignores an essential element of the definition of terrorism, which is that terrorism is politically or ideologically motivated violence. It is not violence for its own sake, or violence for pecuniary gain, as crime is often described. Terrorism is violence for a purpose. The purposeful targeting of British nationals in a Muslim nation provides strong evidence of the purpose behind this attack. While Al Qaeda has not explicitly claimed these attacks, nor linked them to Iraq, I think that's a fair reading of the tea leaves. Update: The WP also has this excellent analysis of who was behind the Istanbul attacks. The article makes two important points. First, Al Qaeda has morphed into a far more decentralized and dangerous enemy than on Sept. 11. Second, the real enemy is Islamic international terrorism writ large -- an Al Qaeda is only one of a number of groups committed to global terrorism in the name of Allah. Al Qaeda's doctrine may have inspired these attacks, and its TTPs may have been used for them, but the actual act may have been carried out by anyone in the loose confederation of international Islamic jihadists. One senior U.S. official said al Qaeda's children were "growing up and moving out into the world, loyal to their parents but no longer reliant on them." Intelligence officials and analysts said the evolution posed new challenges to efforts to combat terror, because rather than facing a few defined, recognized targets, counterterror forces had to confront dozens of small groups that were much more difficult to trace and attack. And, they said, knocking out one small group does not have the same crippling effect as taking down a major leader of a large organization. "The threat has moved beyond al Qaeda," said Rohan Gunaratna, a terrorism expert at the Singapore-based Institute of Defense and Strategic Studies. "While al Qaeda was the instigator of recent attacks, very few have actually been carried out by al Qaeda." "Al Qaeda is as much an ideology as a structure," said Magnus Ranstorp, director of the Center for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence at the University of Saint Andrews in Scotland. "Iraq is now the center of gravity, but I think they are seeking out soft targets and hitting from every flank imaginable by any means. This is an ongoing, raging war with all the gloves off." Michael Pillsbury, a Pentagon terrorism consultant, argued that the evolution of the terrorist groups is analogous to a process of corporate merger and acquisition. At a terrorism conference earlier this year at St. Andrews College, Pillsbury said regionally focused terrorism groups with their own particular agendas join with al Qaeda to learn their operational techniques or benefit from their contacts, but are not subordinate to al Qaeda. For example, he said, Jemaah Islamiah seeks to create a pan-Islamic state in Asia, an agenda that has little to do with driving U.S. forces out of Saudi Arabia or other goals of bin Laden's. "They like to get advice and equipment from al Qaeda but still have their own political agenda," Pillsbury argued.This story quotes all the "giants" in the field of terrorism, and is about as accurate as any threat assessment I've seen lately. There is some tragic irony here. Al Qaeda has built an international coalition of sorts with which to wage multilateral, networked, global jihad against the West. The Western coalition in the war on terrorism is strong, but it also shows some signs of fissure over issues like Iraq. America's best hope for defeating such a global networked threat is to build a network of its own -- it takes a network to fight a network. Army sergeant develops a new body warming system Battlefield innovation shows the ingenuity of the American NCO There's an old maxim of leadership in the Army that if you tell someone how to do something, you'll get results, but if you tell someone what to do, they'll often amaze you with their initiative and brilliance. Army Staff Sgt. Adam R. Irby of the Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU) of the 28th Combat Support Hospital proves this maxim in spades with his new invention: an improvised field warming system for casualties which works three times better than the similar Army-procured device and is made from cardboard boxes and hair dryers. (Thanks to Donald Sensing for the link) Soldiers wounded in combat or accidents who suffer high blood loss almost always have internal bleeding. Stopping internal bleeding is crucial to save their lives - but the blood loss lowers their temperatures dramatically. And cooler blood does not coagulate to seal internal wounds quickly. Casualties have died from internal bleeding before their bodies could be warmed in the hospital. Perhaps no longer, though. The standard method of warming patients has been to wrap the in multiple, ordinary blankets and shine heat lamps on them, or use a use a “Bear Hugger” blanket, "which incorporates small ventilation pipes distributing warm air around the patient." But the hospital has not received the special blankets. So Staff Sgt. Irby constructed a box now known as the "Chief Cuddler." “I constructed the ‘Chief Cuddler’ out of old cardboard boxes and [Maj. Michael] Greenly’s hair dryer,” Irby said. “It creates a micro-environment of about 105 degrees and will bring a patient from about 90 to 98.6 degrees in about three hours, almost a three-fold decrease in time.”Analysis: This is truly amazing work by SSG Irby. There's a reason why Army leaders call non-commissioned officers the "backbone of the Army". NCOs are the repository of the warrior ethos, as well as the professional knowledge and technical ability that is necessary to fight on the modern battlefield. You can't take conscripts, train them for a year, and expect them to fight the way that SFC Eversman did in Mogadishu, or do things like SSG Irby. Building NCOs like these takes years, and an incalculable amount of investment in training, education, and leadership development. Borrowing a phrase from the Army's standard award language, SSG Irby's actions reflect great credit upon himself, his unit, and the United States Army. Sending a message with terror As Brian Jenkins said so many years ago, "terrorism is theater." The Los Angeles Times captures that point nicely with this article today on the twin suicide bombings in Istanbul which killed dozens and left hundreds wounded. The aim of this attack was clearly not destructive, although it did horiffic damage. It was to communicate the simple message that "we're here, we're still capable, and we're still on the offensive." By bombing the British Consulate and the headquarters of a Britain-based bank, the attackers served notice on Washington's chief ally in Iraq and other members of its coalition, as well as moderate Islamic countries, that cooperating with the Bush administration is risky — and that the danger extends to the business as well as the diplomatic community. By pulling off the attacks only five days after twin synagogue bombings in Istanbul, they also demonstrated an audacious tactical prowess. British and Turkish authorities said Thursday's attacks, designed to steal the limelight from President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair in London, appeared to be the work of Al Qaeda or its affiliates in an increasingly decentralized terror network. "This is very much an attack designed to have maximum public relations impact," said Charles Heyman, a terrorism expert and editor of Jane's World Armies in Britain. "It happened just as Blair and Bush were having their press conference. The terrorists have managed to grab the headlines. They did it very cleverly. It shows they are very aware of media operations. It may have neutralized any positive press in the war on terror that Bush could have had during his visit." Every Al Qaeda strike resonates with symbolism: target, timing, setting. Thursday's bombings revealed expert planning and multiple layers of meaning. By hitting the consulate and local headquarters of the HSBC bank, the terrorists struck not only at Britain but at the international financial and diplomatic communities that spread Western influence in the world. Just two or three years ago, Britain seemed an unlikely Al Qaeda target because many Islamic extremists were based in London. However, that was before the Blair government became the United States' most important ally in the invasion of Iraq, analysts said. "With the attack on Britain, one sees how Iraq now plays a central role in the mentality of terrorism," said Olivier Roy, a senior researcher at the National Center for Scientific Research in Paris.Analysis: This last point is intriguing, and correct in my opinion. Iraq has become a focal point for international jihadists; a point on the map they can rally towards. From their perspective, Iraq is a place where Western/American/Christian imperialism has squashed a secular Arab state, and is now frustrating the Sunni and Shiite Muslims there from determining their own government and establishing an Islamic state. Iraq provides evidence of our evil for the terrorists to raise money, arms and personnel. It also provides a training ground for terrorists to hone their deadly arts. And it gives them a raison d'etre -- a reason to fight -- by justifying any political violence which might hasten the end of the occupation. I think it's inevitable that such violence will spread to countries beyond the U.S. and Britain, to possibly include our other allies helping with Iraq like South Korea and Poland. More to follow. An old refrain: too few MPs to go around in America's reserves Jeff Quinton passes on some news from South Carolina that ought to seem eerily familiar to those who have been following the state of America's military reserves since Sept. 11: too few Military Police units for too many missions. Immediately after Sept. 11, MPs were called up to handle force protection missions everywhere from the Pentagon to the Golden Gate Bridge. Since then, reserve MPs have taken on the Afghanistan MP mission, the Guantanamo Bay mission, and a great deal of the MP mission in Iraq. I can't think of a single MP unit in the reserves that hasn't been mobilized in some way since Sept. 11, along with a few other high-demand specialties like Civil Affairs, Military Intelligence, and Special Forces. Practicing judo with the Senate Armed Services Committee The New York Daily News reports that Gen. Peter Schoomaker has effectively learned how to deal with Congress -- agree with them when they criticize the military, and turn the criticism to the Army's own benefit. In a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, Sen. Hillary Clinton criticized a recent Pentagon study and used the occasion to argue for more pay, more benefits, and more money for Americans who serve and their families. (Not a bad way to get votes, according to this Washington Monthly story) Rather than obfuscate, obscure and tapdance, Gen. Schoomaker took ownership of the problem and did something wholly unexpected -- he agreed with Sen. Clinton. New York's junior Democrat laid into a Pentagon cost-cutting study that suggests closing dozens of schools and commissaries on bases - and won the support of Gen. Peter Schoomaker, the new Army chief of staff. "For the life of me, I do not understand this," Clinton said of the study on the viability of schools and the low-cost shops (PXs) for military families. "This sends the wrong message" in a time of war, and could hurt recruitments and reenlistments by "undermining the quality of life of our soldiers and their families," Clinton said at a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing. To Clinton's delight, Schoomaker, the former commander of the supersecret Delta Force, was in full agreement. "It's a great point," Schoomaker told Clinton. "The issue you raise here is central to having the kind of Army we want to have," he said. "It's absolutely important for this nation" to boost morale with improved benefits for soldiers, Schoomaker said.Nice job, Gen. Schoomaker. If you can combine your political acumen with your extensive experience as a snakeeater to pry money out of Congress, the Army will be better for it. Admin note: Just as my college newspaper, the UCLA Daily Bruin, studiously ignored the O.J. Simpson trial while I worked there as a reporter and editor, so too will I studiously ignore Southern California's latest celebrity trial: People v. Michael Jackson. I may comment on the implications this story's prominence has for foreign policy, in that it may push news of Iraq and terrorism off the front pages and TV news shows. But probably not -- I think such stories are best left to Court TV and the tabloid news shows. Al Qaeda 3.0? Global terror network evolves into an opportunistic enemy Peter Bergen, the brilliant journalist who wrote Holy War, Inc., described the evolution of international corporate jihad recently as "Al Qaeda 2.0". A report in today's Los Angeles Times makes me wonder if the enemy has evolved even more, to something beyond what Mr. Bergen has described thus far. Here are the two key parts of the story: Al Qaeda has always been relatively decentralized and unstructured. But today it moves faster, inciting attacks that require less time, expertise or high-level supervision, said Matthew Levitt, a former FBI analyst and terrorism expert at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. "It was always a network of networks whose inner core would wait patiently for three to five years to carry out spectacular attacks," Levitt said. "What's different today is that it's not clear they can conduct attacks with that kind of command and control. So to maintain relevancy, they gave the go-ahead: Do what you can, where you can, when you can. And they are targeting softer targets more frequently." The resurgent global menace leads critics to assert that the U.S. military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq have boomeranged by scattering Al Qaeda's forces, making them harder to detect, and inspiring like-minded extremists. "I think it [U.S. strategy] has backfired," said Alani, of the London defense studies institute. "There is no evidence they can cope effectively with these groups." On the other hand, some U.S. and European officials see signs of weakness as inexperienced, improvised terrorists turn to soft targets. Even in a diminished condition, Al Qaeda has shown how effectively it can harvest the seeds of hate, said Olivier Roy of the National Center for Scientific Research in Paris. "It's a movement that functions by franchise," Roy said. "You find a local group like the Casablanca group who exist all over, who are radicalized and controlled by intermediaries. Al Qaeda gives a general attack order, and then it's not really important if the attack is rational. Casablanca was not rational in many aspects…. The real message was in the suicide, not in the targets. It was necessary to strike fear."Analysis: This is truly a living, breathing, thinking, evolving enemy. Its original form was probably the "Afghan Arab" movement which successfully fought the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan with a composite force of Afghans and Arabs supported by America and others. In the 1990s, this force mutated into the international terror network responsible for the 1996 bombings in Africa, 1998 embassy bombings, 2001 USS Cole attack, and Sept. 11. Over that period, the Al Qaeda network evolved, building redundancy and operational capabilities, building doctrine, and learning lessons from other conflicts. One lesson it learned well was how to survive the eventual Western counter-attack. The organization had enough redundant operational capability, as well as enough dispersal, to withstand our operations in Afghanistan and continue its operations abroad. The best that can be said is that Al Qaeda has been diminished. It currently appears to lack the ability to conduct "spectactular operations" in the U.S. or Western Europe. But Al Qaeda does not lack the ability to conduct operations abroad, either in Africa, Asia or the Middle East. It appears likely that Al Qaeda has adopted a purposeful operational strategy of "wait and strike where we can." Even pinprick attacks on seemingly insignificant targets can be a big deal for Al Qaeda, because they show the ability to continue the fight even in the face of overwhelming odds. The tale of David and Goliath is an old one, but it has never lost its ability to inspire the masses. Al Qaeda vs. the United States has became a tale of David and Goliath writ large on the Arab street, and only spectacular successes on our part (which are broadcast by Al-Jazeera) will have any effect on this. To lure more recruits and more donations from sympathetic Arabs around the world, Al Qaeda doesn't have to launch another 9/11-style spectacular operation. They can simply go on, throwing rocks and bombs at insignificant targets while being hunted by American special operations units. Doing so will inspire their followers, which will make them stronger. At some point in the future, Al Qaeda 3.0 will resume its larger operations, perhaps when we have become complacent or when America can no longer politically justify the exhaustive hunt for Al Qaeda. This enemy has the tactical patience to wait for that moment, and to strike then. Our best counter-measures are psychological. We can never allow ourselves to become complacent, and we must conceptually think of everything as a potential target. Coda: The original Afghan Arabs may be evolving too, and learning lessons from both the Somalia operation and the current occupation of Iraq. Michael M. Phillips reports in the Wall Street Journal (subscription required) that Afghan insurgents have adopted many of the same disruptive tactics as their Iraqi contemporaries. That is to say, they are striking so-called "soft targets" of opportunity when they can in order to create chaos and inflict casualties. The goal is not to defeat the NATO military operation in Afghanistan, but to destabilize the situation and make it politically untenable for the West to continue its nation-building operations there. The recent surge in violence, particularly in areas adjoining Pakistan where the Taliban enjoys considerable support, is impeding the international reconstruction effort. Following the assassination of a French staff member, the United Nations refugee agency scaled back its aid operations Tuesday and, for now, shuttered its offices in several southern and southeastern cities. The killing followed a bomb attack on a U.N. vehicle and another on the U.N. offices in Kandahar, the spiritual home of the ousted Taliban regime. Nine charities working in Afghanistan, including CARE and the International Rescue Committee, say in a report circulated among policymakers that the growing insecurity has delayed, reduced or cut off reconstruction aid for 600,000 Afghans. They and other aid agencies are urging the U.S. and its coalition allies to boost both financial assistance and military forces in Afghanistan, which they fear has taken a backseat to Iraq. "In most cases the terrorist groups are coming with clear instructions to undermine the reconstruction activities," said Said Tayeb Jawad, the Afghan ambassador to the U.S. and former chief of staff to President Hamid Karzai. "In some instances, there have been clear instructions, for instance, to kill the people working on road projects." The opposition's hit-and-run tactics are similar to those being used in Iraq, where Saddam Hussein loyalists, foreign extremists and others opposed to the U.S.-led occupation have attacked the International Committee of the Red Cross, the U.N. and private contractors assisting in the reconstruction effort. The aim appears to be to cow the populace by demonstrating the inability of international forces to keep the peace or improve the public's living standards.Coda II: Citizen (formerly LT) Smash has an illuminating chronology of post-Afghanistan Al Qaeda operations around the world. Note the fact that all are confined to the Arab and Islamic world. Why? Because Al Qaeda has been hobbled -- not dismantled -- by our global war on terrorism. They are limited to opportunistically hitting the soft targets now. Will they rise again? Unfortunately, I think the answer is yes, for some of the reasons discussed in this UN report. Our charge is to be ready for them. America's new military plans for the world Bradley Graham reports in the Washington Post about an extremely important strategic/operational development in the Pentagon: the creation of new operational plans for such major theaters as the Middle East and Korea. Unfortunately, news of the sniper's conviction and Arnold's swearing-in pushed this story from page A1 to A18. But I think this is probably the most important story to come out of the Pentagon in weeks. The most important change is that the new operational plans assume America's ability to "do more with less" -- that is, to fight a military campaign with fewer boots on the ground and more airpower/artillery guided by "C4ISR" (command, control, communications, computing, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance). U.S. military commanders, working with the Pentagon's Joint Staff, have revised plans for potential wars on the Korean peninsula, in the Middle East and elsewhere based on assumptions that conflicts could be fought more quickly and with fewer American troops than previously thought, senior officers said. The changes reflect advances in precision munitions, greater use of Special Operations forces, and improved coordination between air, ground and sea forces tested in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. By incorporating these and other new elements in all U.S. war plans, Pentagon authorities hope to make them permanent features and gain greater combat efficiency, the officers said. Although many specifics remain classified, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld has alluded to the revised plans in recent statements, saying they show the Pentagon would be able to deal with other conflicts while U.S. forces stay heavily committed in Iraq and Afghanistan. He has rejected calls from lawmakers and others to increase the overall size of the armed forces. In the case of a North Korean attack on South Korea, one senior Joint Staff officer said, the new plans would allow the United States to respond without waiting for as many ground forces to arrive, by substituting air power for artillery and getting such critical equipment as counter-battery radars -- for pinpointing enemy mortar and artillery fire -- on scene ahead of the rest of their divisions. The resulting force might not be as "elegant" as planners would like, but "it will certainly be capable," the officer said. Still, the new planning does not appear to have addressed issues of postwar stabilization and peacekeeping, which in the case of Iraq have imposed huge burdens on the Pentagon that were not foreseen by Rumsfeld and many of his top aides. Instead, it has focused on how to win wars fast.Analysis: In essence, these changes take the alleged lessons learned from Iraq and incorporate them into updated and revised operational plans. We all watched the way that American firepower and intelligence capabilities worked together in Iraq to defeat the Iraqi army in three weeks. I haven't seen these new operational plans (obviously, they're classified), but I would guess that these plans assume a lower number of infantry, armor and combat-support troops on the ground as well for the mission, either because those troops may be tied up elsewhere (e.g. Iraq) or because there won't be time in future conflicts to deploy them before the balloon goes up. What's wrong with this plan? Well, I see two glaring areas where the operational plans assume substantial amounts of risk -- at the strategic, operational and tactical levels. Risk Area 1: Security. The decision to fight a war with less of a ground footprint leaves you with less manpower to protect those things that you do actually put on the ground. Although the initial stages of a war may be fought entirely by airpower, I think it's still true that you must eventually commit ground troops in order to seize, hold or occupy terrain -- or to truly impose your will on an enemy government. As T.R. Fehrenbach said so brilliantly in This Kind of War: "You may fly over a land forever; you may bomb it, atomize it, pulverize it and wipe it clean of life," wrote Fehrenbach. "But if you desire to defend it, protect it, and keep it for civilization, you must do this on the ground, the way the Roman legions did, by putting your young men into the mud." This is still true. The problem then becomes one of force protection. Our enemies have learned to hit us asymmetrically because they know that they cannot hope to succeed against the combined-arms effort of American infantry, armor, artillery and air support. Indeed, if Gulf War I and II are any indicator, they will lose thousands of soldiers in any such effort. However, they have also learned from Somalia, Afghanistan and Gulf War II that asymmetric tactics can be highly effective -- particularly against those parts of the American war machine that are less well-protected: supply lines, logistics bases and command posts. Such units are absolutely critical to the American way of war, because our front-line units can't operate without the support of a heavy logistics tail -- and they will be less effective without the assistance of a command post to direct close-air support and artillery, among other force multipliers. Asymmetric attacks on these targets will likely produce American casualties, which in turn will make Americans question the war effort and possibly hasten our withdrawal from any endeavor, according to this theory. They will also reduce our effectiveness and slow our advance. As we saw recently in Iraq, such attacks will eventually rise to the point where the operational commander must pull front-line troops out of the fight to secure the lines of communication and critical American high-value assets. The asset requirements for force protection will sap combat power from the fight, where it's needed. And if the decision was made before the fight to deploy less troops to the theater, it's often too late during the fight to get them there, since American units typically require weeks to deploy anything heavier than a paratroop battalion to war. If this problem grows bad enough, it will necessitate an operational pause. But at that point, the whole point of moving fast and light is lost, and you should've just deployed enough troops when you had the chance. Risk Area 2: Troops to Secure the Peace. As this article states, the new operational plans don't fully consider the post-war requirements in each respective theater of operation. In Iraq, those post-war requirements were assumed away too, according to excellent reports in the Los Angeles Times and the Washington Post, among other sources. The result was a hasty effort to secure the peace in the immediate aftermath of the war, compounded by a lack of resources (boots on the ground) to do the job in April and May. The result was chaos. If there is one lesson that operational planners (and I've been one) should take away from Iraq, it is this: don't assume the post-war phase of the operation out of the planning process. You simply can't afford to assume a d*mn thing when it comes to planning, and failing to plan such a major part of the operation is planning for failure. The post-war phase in Iraq is turning out to be far more important, far more costly, and far more lengthy than the war itself. But that's always been the case. In every war we have fought since WWII, the ends have been messy. After WWII, we had to occupy Germany and Japan for years. We're still in Korea, although the nation-building efforts were largely complete by 1960. Vietnam ended quite messily, though we're now returning there to rebuild the nation's economy with the foot soldiers of capitalism. Somalia, Bosnia, Haiti, Kosovo, Afghanistan, Rwanda, East Timor -- every recent nation-building op has shown that it takes more troops to secure the peace than to win the war (or change the regime, if that's the case). I made this point in May in the Washington Monthly, and Amb. James Dobbins made it more elegantly in the RAND study America's Role in Nation-Building: From Germany to Iraq. If you commit less troops to the fight, then you will have less troops on the ground at the moment the mission changes from war to post-war stabilization. Moreover, America lacks the strategic-lift (think Air Force cargo plane) capability and rapid-deployment (think 82nd Airborne) capability to rapidly get troops to the battlefield in the time it will take to affect the situation on the ground. In Iraq, the situation deterioriated in a matter of days, and even if we had made the decision on 9 Apr 03 to deploy additional forces, it would've taken weeks to get them there. The pre-war decision to commit less troops to battle has profound post-war implications, and these operational plans appear to miss that point. I don't think these are necessarily fatal flaws. The combatant commands (e.g. CENTCOM) can scrub these plans, generate their own requirements, and request more resources for operations when the order is given. But they really don't have the resources -- or the asset visibility -- to do so as effectively as the Joint Staff and the service staffs (e.g. Army and Navy). Plus, they will be under significant time pressure to execute the mission, and it will be hard to request more resources if and when the balloon goes up in a place like Korea. The right answer would be to incorporate the real lessons learned from Iraq into these operational plans. History has shown us that winning the peace is often more difficult than winning the war, and we should plan for that. Depending on your perspective, such an event may be a contingency or an eventuality. But a good planner plans for both. Novices at nation building Stanford Professor Stephen Krasner writes in today's Los Angeles Times that American difficulties in Afghanistan and Iraq should come as no surprise to observers around the world, because frankly, America and the world lacks experience in building democracies. What we do know — or should know — is that getting from here to there will be hard. The states we're most interested in helping to transform today generally have low per-capita incomes, limited experience with democracy and long histories of autocratic and sometimes brutal rule. These are not conditions that tend to foster democracy. Among the surprisingly few things we know about creating democracies is this: While it doesn't necessarily take higher per-capita income to establish a democracy, it certainly helps in sustaining it. No democratic country with per-capita income above $6,000 has ever reverted to autocracy. We also know that democratic transitions are dangerous. Autocratic leaders feeling threatened by democratic reforms can respond by cracking down. A destructive sort of nationalism can surface (think Kaiser Wilhelm II before World War I, Slobodan Milosevic in the 1990s or Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe today). And states in transition are more likely than either stable democracies or autocracies to become involved in wars. Foreign occupation, even when accompanied by large amounts of money, does not guarantee a smooth transition to democracy. Since the Dayton accords of December 1995, Bosnia has effectively been under the control of the international community, led by Europe. Aid has flowed freely: In the late 1990s, foreign assistance amounted to a quarter of the country's gross national income. While this international effort has kept the lid on a volatile situation, it has hardly set Bosnia on a clear path toward democratic autonomy. The situation in Kosovo, which in 1999 became a de facto NATO protectorate, is no better. The simple fact is that we do not know how to do democracy-building. We do not have clear historical precedents. Germany and Japan after World War II demonstrated that an extensive, sustained American presence can contribute to the establishment of stable democracies. But in 1945, Germany and Japan were countries with more wealth, better-educated populations and more experience with democracy than the countries with which America is now engaged. In other countries where we have attempted regime change, results have been mixed. Over the last century, the United States has intervened both covertly and overtly in the Caribbean and Central America. But we have not done nearly as well as we would have liked in leaving successful democracies and market economies in our wake. Analysis: I think this is a powerful argument, and one that's not without a shred of truth. I suppose it's debatable whether democracy should emerge first -- and set the conditions for a liberal society -- or whether the liberal society and market economy must come first. In many ways, it's a classic chicken/egg problem. I happen to think that the market economy, infrastructure, and educational systems must come first in order to set the conditions for the emergence of democracy. You have to build a class of educated persons with a personal economic incentive to become stakeholders in society; to defend what they have acquired by means of civil government. Towards that end, America can create the conditions for the emergence of democracy in Iraq by building roads, schools, markets, hospitals, and other institutions to help Iraqi society reestablish itself. Self-determination will take over at that point, and while we may not get the government we want, I think that the Iraqi people ought to be trusted to decide their own destiny. "A citizen check on war" Active/reserve mix in American military effectively checks the President's war powers Former Air Force pilot Janine Davidson has a well written essay in today's Washington Post Outlook section on the "total force" concept, which is the term of art to describe the mix of active and reserve forces in today's American military. Ms. Davidson lays out the history behind this concept, and the way this concept has developed into a check on Presidential warmaking and deployment power. The current U.S. military structure -- known as the "Total Force" -- was implemented after the Vietnam War. The system was designed to require activation of Guard and reserves personnel in order to wage war. Defense officials ensured that war-fighting capabilities were integrated across the active and reserves components to such a degree that, as an Army chief of staff, Gen. Creighton Abrams, is said to have claimed, "they're not taking us to war again without calling up the reserves." Abrams and others recognized that when reservists are mobilized, whole communities are affected to a much greater degree than when a draft is conducted of only young eligible men. Their primary concern was that when reservists went to war, troops serving abroad would have more support "back home." But the Total Force had another goal as well -- to act as a check on indiscriminate or capricious uses of military force. Recent experience in the Balkans and the Middle East demonstrates that it is easier to send troops abroad than it is to bring them home. And history shows that Congress rarely has acted against a president to limit the use of force. Thus, the Total Force was designed to compel Congress to scrutinize military operations. As employers give up workers and as families say goodbye to soldiers augmenting active forces, Congress should be pressured by constituents to act. In sum, the sacrifices of waging war -- or even keeping peace -- are supposed to spread throughout our democratic society to such a degree that our elected officials are forced to debate the wisdom of sending troops abroad.Analysis: Indeed, Gen. Creighton Abrams' total force concept has become a more effective check on presidential warmaking ability than either the Art. I power of Congress to declare war, or the potentially unconstitutional War Powers Act. This check works because it's closely tied to the Art. I power of Congress to fund the military. Mobilization decisions also require political capital, and even in this gerrymandered age of safe Congressional seats, decisions to send large numbers of Americans into harm's way translates into lots of political pressure on Congress to manage those deployments. On the other hand, this force balance effectively ties the SecDef's arm behind his back, because it limits his ability to deploy certain critical units such as Civil Affairs, Military Police, Military Intelligence and logistics. And, America's reserve system was designed for a WWIII-style scenario where the entire nation would mobilize to fight the Soviet hordes as they streamed through the Fulda Gap. It does not work well for the constant level of peacekeeping deployments we had in the 1990s, and it is about to break down from the strain of repeated, long-term deployments to support the Global War on Terrorism. There is a good argument for moving some of the most critical units into the active force, such as Civil Affairs, at least in sufficient numbers to give America a 9-1-1 capability in these specialties. The travels of LCPL David C. Botti Sunday's New York Times carries an exceptional personal essay from David Botti, a Marine reserve infantryman who was mobilized first for post-9/11 security and later for combat duty in Iraq. LCPL Botti answered the call both times, taking himself away from his nascent writing career and dreams of living in New York City. But he took his journal with him to war, and captured a number of the stories of his comrades while deployed. The result, I hope, will eventually be some sort of war memoir (or work of fiction) that accurately characterizes the experiences of Marines in Iraq. His essay today marks his journey from New York to Iraq and back again to the big city. The August night I returned to the city from Iraq, I found myself drunk in the bathroom of an East Village bar. As I steadied the wall, I wondered how this skin of mine, tanned brown from the Iraqi sun, could now soak up the atmosphere of a good, seedy city bar. Wondered how the people in line behind me could enjoy the night while their peers still slept with rifles, halfway around the world, where I had been just the week before. I wandered back to my friends, and drifted out of the conversation as soon as I sat down. It was easy to leave the city once more, relive the past four months in the time it took for the next round to arrive. No one spoke to me. Perhaps my silence betrayed my thoughts; I was glad to be left alone. But at that moment I was not having flashbacks, or letting alcohol numb grief and pain. There was no nervous tick or trembling hands. My thoughts, my reverie, lay with the people I had known in Iraq, the soldiers and citizens still dealing with the violent reality. As the fighting unexpectedly intensifies in Iraq, as the American body count rises, each headline strikes deeper, and I can still see it, still feel it: walking through a foreign city, looking to the rooftops, the windows, in alleys, behind me, in front, to the sides. One person thanks you for freedom, and the next stares through you as if you are already a ghost. It is a forceful process, ingesting the news and carrying it with me through the day. There are moments when I want the rifle back in my hand, so I can return to Iraq and remain there, until the war ends in a solid conclusion. There is still a reluctance to forget my initial, unwavering idealism that leaving Iraq meant that things were improving, and that others would soon be following me home. But sometimes, it's New York that feels like a foreign city. One night, in another bar, I read a note posted by the staff above the urinal that ridiculed the city's smoking ban and urged patrons to send Mayor Bloomberg hate mail in an attempt to change the law. This was the city I had returned to: outspoken and opinionated, the center of freethinking. I want the inspiration and nurturing that New York can give young writers. I am not ashamed of my service, but am conscious that my past might overshadow what I want to accomplish. As my friends and I headed home from that Village bar last August, I allowed myself respite from the guilt of being safe and happy. I watched the blocks pass with the hopeful feeling that soon the city would cease to feel new again. Is the NYT rewriting Time's copy? 2 stories on combat casualties seem eerily familiar, down to the details Time had an exceptionally well-done piece in last week's issue (with Russell Crowe on the cover) about America's wounded from Iraq, and the long road they travel from wound to recovery. I was about to comment on it, and some of the advances (like body armor and medical corps doctrine) that have led to this paradigm shift in casualty evacation, treatment and recovery. Then I saw this piece by Neela Banerjee in the New York Times, scratched my head, and said "Gee... these look awfully similar." The stories are so similar, they even talk about the same computerized prosthetic limb that costs $100,000 each. And what's even odder is that the 16 Nov 03 New York Times story bears a 10 Nov 03 dateline, leading me to believe it sat in the editor's hopper for a while. After the Blair incident, I doubt the NYT is actually lifting Time's copy or story ideas, and Ms. Banerjee is known as a good reporter. But it still struck me as odd that these two flagship publications would run what is basically the exact same story. What do you think? Jessica Lynch and women in combat Why Elaine Donnelly gets it wrong in the National Review A lot has been said so far about Jessica Lynch, from the date of her capture through her rescue, recuperation, return home, discharge, and release of her book. Now, the inevitable charge has come from Elaine Donnelly, chair of the Center for Military Readiness, that Lynch's story exemplifies why women should not be sent into ground combat. Moreover, Donnelly argues in the National Review that Lynch was sent into harm's way because of 1994 reforms by the Clinton Administration that changed the Pentagon's policies for women on the battlefield. Here's an excerpt: How did Lynch get to the frontlines, many Americans may wonder. Under rules issued by the Clinton administration, female soldiers in support units are now being forced into areas involving a "substantial risk of capture." This policy is inconsistent with privacy rules that deny information about what happens to women who are captured — unless a victim of sexual abuse decides to write a book months later. During the first Persian Gulf War, then-major Rhonda Cornum, a medical doctor, was subjected to sexual indecencies within hours of her capture in 1991. An ardent advocate of women in combat, Cornum kept silent when Congress debated and repealed one of the laws exempting women from combat. Candor about her experience in captivity, which later appeared in her own 1992 book, could have changed the course of the congressional debate. Jessica Lynch is not responsible for the media's irresponsible hyping of expedient myths that many people knew to be false. Nevertheless, the fairytale story manipulated public opinion on the issue of women in combat, which ideological feminists keep insisting is "not a big deal." In 1994, Les Aspin, Bill Clinton's secretary of defense, announced new personnel-assignment regulations that were billed as expanded "career opportunities" for women. Female enlistees, including Lynch and former POW Spec. Shoshana Johnson, clearly were not aware that the rules had changed. No one told them, it seems, that women would be assigned to previously all-male units, even in support missions known to involve a "substantial risk of capture." These Clinton-era rules remain in effect today. Civilian and uniformed Pentagon officials will not act on their own to initiate change unless the Commander in Chief provides a clear mandate for objective review and constructive change. Without further delay, President Bush should direct Pentagon officials to find a way for female soldiers to serve their country without deliberate exposure to greater, unequal risk, to the greatest degree possible. There are restrictions on the discussion of war crimes such as rape, but with so many women being exposed to unprecedented risks of capture and abuse, perhaps those rules are in need of revision as well. If Defense Department officials cannot bring themselves to tell Americans the truth about what happens to women in war, perhaps they should not be sending female soldiers so close combat zones in the first place. Analysis: This argument is wrong on several levels. As an initial matter, I should say that good things happen to bad units (sometimes it's better to be lucky than good) and bad things happen to good units. I have analyzed the 507th Maintenance Company ambush and I think that this was the predictable result of training, resourcing and leadership decisions made which sent a poorly prepared unit into combat and put them too close to the front lines. At the end of the day, though, the 507th was unlucky, and they paid a heavy price for that misfortune. 1. Jessica Lynch's position in the 507th Maintenance Company was not opened to women as a result of then-SecDef Aspin's rule change in 1994. (See the actual memo here) The 507th Maintenance Company habitually supports a Patriot missile unit. Doctrinally, this unit exists at the echelon above corps level. Doctrinally, they should fight far back on the battlefield, beyond the reach of enemy artillery and well behind the battalions, brigades, and divisions which actually fought the ground war in Iraq. PFC Lynch's supply clerk billet would have been open to women in 1990 for Gulf War I. PFC Lynch was not a front-line position, such as that in the 3rd Military Police Company or 1-227 Aviation (Attack) -- two units where women fought as MP soldiers and Apache helicopter pilots respectively. Instead, she held a supply clerk position in a rear area logistics unit where the risk of combat was thought to be low. The 1994 rule change opened up a number of jobs for women, as I explain in this December 2002 cover article in the Washington Monthly. This rule changed allowed women to lead the way to Baghdad as MPs, intelligence officers, Apache pilots, front-line surgeons, and many other specialties. But this rule change had nothing to do with the 507th Maintenance Company, which even under the old Reagan-era rules, would have been open to women. Even under the "risk rule" that Ms. Donnelly writes of, the 507th would have been open to women. 2. So what happened? Well, the 507th Maintenance Company stumbled into combat as the result of many factors. Most importantly, CENTCOM planners built a warplan that called for a rapid advance through Iraq to Baghdad -- an advance which stretched American supply lines and left main supply routes unprotected. This allowed Iraqi guerillas to attack American logistics convoys and wreak havoc in our rear area. In addition, the "bypass criteria" was set very high on the advance to Baghdad, meaning that American tanks and infantry would bypass enemy platoons and companies as they fought on. These bypassed units were then faced by lightly-armed MPs and logistics units in the rear area, and also caused problems. At one point, GEN Tommy Franks had to pull entire brigades of infantry out of the fight in order to secure his rear area, because the dual problems of enemy guerillas and bypassed units had become so threatening to logistics and command units. The 507th Maintenance Company convoy was in this rear area, and they suffered as the result of an ambitious operational plan that lacked effective planning for security in the rear area. On top of this failure, PFC Lynch's unit failed her. CPT Troy King, the company commander for the 507th, failed to effectively lead his company on the day in question. He wrote his route down wrong, got his convoy lost, and then failed to take effective actions on contact when the ambush was initiated -- at least, according to the Army's report on the subject. PFC Lynch paid the price for her company commander's dereliction of duty and poor performance, as have soldiers throughout history for the failures of their commanders. (Note: CPT King has not been officially disciplined by the Army, which appears to have taken the position that his bad luck should not be punished with criminal or administrative action. I beg to differ, and have a hard time reconciling the prosecution of men like LTC Allen West when the Army lets a commander like this escape the blame. Good or bad, company commanders are responsible everything that happens to their unit. The buck stops with the man or woman who wears captain's bars.) 3. Ironically, had PFC Lynch been assigned to a front-line unit like the 3rd MP Company, she probably would have been better prepared for combat. The 1994 reforms did open up a number of opportunities for women, including service in front-line MP units assigned at the division and brigade level. In these MP units, male and female soldiers conduct missions such as route reconnaissance and area security -- missions which often require them to train and fight as infantry or scouts. My last unit, the 4th MP Company, trained hard on these missions, and was well resourced to conduct them. We often trained with the scouts and infantry of our brigade, and even shot gunnery with our brigade's reconnaissance troop. That training has paid off. Despite seeing as much fighting as any unit on the battlefield, MP units have experienced relatively light casualties -- including no fatalities in my old unit. (Thank God) The best way to take care of soldiers and bring them home alive is to train them hard, and front-line units at the brigade level and below train hard with that in mind. PFC Lynch was not assigned to such a front-line unit. She was assigned to a rear-echelon unit that likely had never done an NTC rotation, had never done a live-fire exercise, and had never done a field exercise longer than 2 weeks. Indeed, I doubt that PFC Lynch had effectively trained for combat since she graduated from basic training. The 507th certainly did not train effectively with the 3rd Infantry Division, under which it fought in Iraq. None of the 507th's officers or sergeants had experience with 3ID orders, maps, or TTPs. This lack of training and readiness was to blame, according to the Army, for the chain of events that led to the 507th being ambushed. Jessica Lynch herself had this to say in an interview with Time Magazine: What did they tell you to expect? "What you trained for [maintenance and supply] obviously wasn't what happened. We had to do the whole weapons qualification again to make sure that we knew how to operate a weapon, but also we did a lot of training with gas masks. In a sense we were ready, but we weren't ready for an ambush attack." Did you feel your commanding officer had the training and equipment he needed to do his job? "Yeah, I think he did. I think it was just all a big mistake that happened. Just fatigue, sleepiness, the whole thing—we were just not prepared."As I stated earlier, it's impossible to know whether good training and leadership would have made the difference when the 507th was ambushed. But we can certainly point to the absence of such training as a key factor in the 507th's failure to respond to its ambush. As PFC Lynch herself has said -- she didn't even get off a shot. Why? Because her weapon jammed. Why? Because it was poorly maintained and poorly lubricated and poorly cleaned. Why? Because the NCOs and officers in her unit lacked the training, experience and fieldcraft to effectively lead their soldiers in combat. The results were all too clear. If you want to fix these problems, don't take women out of these units. Make every soldier a rifleman instead, led by competent officers and NCOs who have what it takes to accomplish the mission and take care of their soldiers. Bottom Line: PFC Lynch and her unit were not ready for combat when they went into harm's way. Too many of the soldiers in the 507th paid the price for that readiness. PFC Lynch was no front-line soldier, and she was no Rambo. But PFC Lynch was no further forward on the battlefield than thousands of other women -- women who have served ably and effectively for more than 15 years. Her ambush and capture should not be used to judge the 1994 reforms which opened up more positions to women, because frankly, those reforms had nothing to do with where PFC Lynch was on the battlefield. If you want to draw lessons from the 507th Maintenance Company incident, you should do so. But draw those lessons from what actually happened, as reported by the Army's after-action review and its forthcoming 15-6 investigation; draw those lessons from the facts about the 1994 policy change, and how it allowed women further forward on the battlefield than ever before. But don't draw conclusions about the 1994 policy changes that let women into front-line units, when those policy changes had nothing to do with the 507th Maintenance Company or PFC Lynch. Doing so is disingenuous, and takes liberties with the facts and the policy of this matter. It also does a disservice to the thousands of women in Iraq today who have ably and effectively served their nation in uniform, and deserve to be recognized for their accomplishments. John Keegan's latest work Joseph E. Persico reviewed John Keegan's latest book this past weekend in the New York Times, titled Intelligence In War: Knowledge of the Enemy From Napoleon to Al-Qaeda. (The Times also has this excerpt from the first chapter of the book) The book looks like a must-buy for anyone interested in military history, intelligence, or operational art. (In other words, it's on my list to buy/read) Mr. Persico's review makes the book look even more appealing. Though ''Intelligence in War'' carries the subtitle ''Knowledge of the Enemy From Napoleon to Al-Qaeda,'' Keegan has written not a history, but several case histories, measuring the contribution that intelligence made to victory. He is put off by the romantic notion generated by espionage fact and fiction that spies somehow win battles, even wars, by ruses, pilfered secrets and cracked codes. His own conclusion, hammered home again and again, is that ''decision in war is always the result of a fight, and in combat willpower always counts for more than foreknowledge. Let those who disagree show otherwise.'' While spying is as ancient as the pharaohs, Keegan dates the beginnings of ''real time'' intelligence, that is, information obtained in sufficient time to be used, to the invention of radio. He illustrates the limitations of intelligence before then in the chapter entitled ''Chasing Napoleon,'' his case history of Admiral Nelson's 1798 zigzag hunt across the Mediterranean in search of the French fleet. Surprisingly, even in that era, information could fly -- from the Admiralty in London to the English coast in two minutes, via a chain of semaphore stations. But once the fleet put out to sea, communication vanished over the horizon. Consequently, while the Admiralty had intelligence from several sources that the French fleet was headed for Egypt to obstruct Britain's trade routes to India, no way existed to get this information into Nelson's hands in time for him to act on it. That the French fleet was finally destroyed at Alexandria after a 73-day chase had more to do with Nelson's deductive genius, Keegan says, than with the stale intelligence that was arriving from London. By World War I, however, the development of radio, as Keegan puts it, ''altered for ever the nature of war at sea,'' and on land as well. Which leads to his root question: can intelligence win rather than merely abet victories? Keegan takes a hard look at the role of intelligence in the Battle of the Atlantic during World War II, beginning with an observation from Prime Minister Winston Churchill that ''the only thing that really frightened me during the war was the U-boat peril.'' Was Churchill's concern justified? In the conventional telling, Allied intelligence, particularly code breakers, located German U-boat wolf packs, which Allied ships and planes then sank. This, it is said, saved Britain from strangulation. But Keegan is quite ready to sacrifice the heroic legend to the duller truth. Yes, the Allies did defeat the German U-boat fleet in the Atlantic. And yes, intelligence did play an instrumental role. But, he points out, even in 1943, the year of the biggest convoy battles, 9,097 Allied ships made it safely across the ocean, while only 139 were lost. He concludes that ''the Battle of the Atlantic could have been won without the assistance of the code breakers.'' In this latest work, Keegan has not set out to debunk intelligence. Rather he has sought to place the clandestine underbelly of war in perspective, to wrest it from the popular imagination as some sort of entertaining shortcut to victory. In the end, as he puts it, ''It is force, not fraud or forethought, that counts.'' Whatever its truth, the roots of this conviction are not hard to divine. Keegan came to military history well before he came to military intelligence, and he understands all too well the barbarous physical reality of war as contrasted to the largely cerebral battlefields of intelligence warriors. To John Keegan, warfare has always been far more blood and guts than cloak and dagger.

Tom Skiba Philip Greenspun's Homepage : Community member A member of the Philip Greenspun's Homepage community since January 15, 1998 Static Page Comments April 27, 1998, on Welfare Reform: TANSTAAFL - There ain't no such thing as a free lunch No matter what system you devise, providing social benefits for the homeless (or any other specific group of welfare recepients you might select) will always be subject to criticism from conservatives for having poor controls and wasting money or from liberals for not providing enough. Unfortunately, the only way to truly address the "welfare problem" may be to focus our attention and resources on preventing individuals from reaching that point in the first place. That means more money on the front end, for education, job training, and expansion of socio-economic opportunity. Yes, we could never completely eliminate all of those in need, but perhaps we can reduce the overall population so that the limited resources made available for welfare programs could be more effectively spent to provide for those who cannot provide for themselves.

Mavericks: Sixers Fall to Mavs, 82-75 Final - 2.17.2012 1 2 3 4 Total Dallas Mavericks 21 Philadelphia 76ers 27 The Philadelphia 76ers dropped their third home game in a row on Friday night as they lost to the Dallas Mavericks by a score of 82-75 in Wells Fargo Center. This is the Sixers' second loss in a row, giving them a 20-11 record which puts them in third place in the Eastern Conference and keeps them in first place in the Atlantic Division. The Mavericks now also have a 20-11 record, which is good for fourth place in the Western Conference and second place in the Southwest division. Only one 76ers starter was able to read double digit points on Friday night and that was Andre Iguodala, who barely got there with 10 points. The team's leading scorers all came off the bench as Nikola Vucevic led the team with 16 points, Thaddeus Young added 14 and Lou Williams scored 12. The Mavericks were led by Dirk Nowitzki. The Sixers held him to only four points in the first half but allowed him to explode in the second half. He scored a total of 28 points. Vince Carter added 10 and Dominique Jones came off the bench to score 12. The 76ers will look to bounce back on the road on Sunday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves at 7 p.m. (ET) while the Mavericks will look to win their seventh game in a row in New York against the Knicks on Sunday afternoon.

The Sixers came into the game with a 20-10 record, which placed them in third place in the Eastern Conference and in first place in the Atlantic Division. The Mavs came into the game with a 19-11 record, which put them in fourth place in the Western Conference and in second place in the Southeast Division. The 76ers are coming off a loss to the Orlando Magic on the road but have lost two straight at home while the Mavericks are riding a five-game winning streak. The Sixers were led by their top scoring bench once again. Center Nikola Vucevic led the team off the bench with 12 points while starters Andre Iguodala added nine and both Elton Brand and Lavoy Allen added eight. The Mavericks starters were led by Jason Kidd, who scored six, and Vince Carter, who scored five, but the team's leading scorer was Dominique Jones, who came off the bench to add seven.

Deflating scientific explanation, or how to make the realist raft float Ioannis Votsis The paper is divided into three parts. The first part identifies one of the main problems with many current accounts of the notion of explanation: The unreasonable demand, proposed by Michael Scriven and subsequently adopted by many philosophers, that we must square our account of scientific explanation to our intuitions about explanations in everyday contexts. It is first pointed out that the failure to provide a satisfactory account is not endemic to the notion of explanation, i.e. it is widespread amongst notions. Many of the notions considered in philosophical contexts originate and have a function in broader everyday contexts. Indeed, in evaluating accounts of these notions we rely on intuitions that originate in these broader contexts. Yet, we rarely seem to question the appropriateness of these intuitions in more restricted, in this case scientific, contexts. I argue against this complacency, pointing out that our intuitions can often be inconsistent. votsis.org Try with proxy. Robert A. Wilson & Frank C. Keil (1998).

In fact, according to the American Diabetes Association, type 1 diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases in children. Type 1 diabetes accounts for 5 percent of all diagnosed cases of diabetes in the U.S. What is type 1 diabetes? Type 1 diabetes may also be known by a variety of other names, including: Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) Sugar diabetes There are two forms of type 1 diabetes: Idiopathic type 1. This refers to rare forms of the disease with no known cause. Immune-mediated diabetes. An autoimmune disorder in which the body's immune system destroys, or attempts to destroy, the cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. Immune-mediated diabetes is the most common form of type 1 diabetes and is generally referred to as type 1 diabetes. What causes type 1 diabetes? The cause of type 1 diabetes is unknown. However, it is believed that people inherit a tendency to develop diabetes, and that some outside trigger may be involved. Type 1 diabetes is the result of the body's failure to produce insulin, the hormone that allows glucose to enter the cells of the body to provide fuel. This is the result of an autoimmune process in which the body's immune system attacks and destroys the insulin producing cells of the pancreas. When glucose cannot enter the cells, it builds up in the blood, depriving the cells of nutrition. People with type 1 diabetes must take daily insulin injections and regularly monitor their blood sugar levels. What are the symptoms of type 1 diabetes? Type 1 diabetes often appears suddenly. In children, type 1 diabetes symptoms may resemble flu symptoms. The following are the most common symptoms for type 1 diabetes. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, common symptoms may include: High levels of sugar in the blood when tested High levels of sugar in the urine when tested Unusual thirst Frequent urination; a baby may need more frequent diaper changes; a previously toilet-trained child may start wetting his or her pants. Extreme hunger but loss of weight; loss of appetite may be seen in younger children. Blurred vision Extreme weakness and fatigue Irritability and mood changes Serious diaper rash that does not respond to treatment The symptoms of type 1 diabetes may resemble other problems or medical conditions. Always consult your child's doctor for a diagnosis. What can be expected with type 1 diabetes? Type 1 diabetes may cause the following: Hyperglycemia (high blood sugar). This occurs when blood sugar is too high, and can be a sign that diabetes is not well-controlled. Ketoacidosis (diabetic coma). A loss of consciousness due to untreated or undertreated diabetes. Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar, sometimes called an insulin reaction). This occurs when blood sugar drops too low. Complications that may result from type 1 diabetes include: Neuropathy (nerve problems) Treatment for type 1 diabetes Children with type 1 diabetes must have daily injections of insulin to keep the blood sugar level within normal ranges. Specific treatment for type 1 diabetes will be determined by your child's doctor based on: Appropriate foods (to manage blood sugar level) Exercise (to lower and help the body use blood sugar) Regular blood testing (to check blood-sugar levels), as directed by your child's doctor Regular urine testing (to check ketone levels), as directed by your child's doctor Helping your child cope with type 1 diabetes Depending on your child's age, a type 1 diabetes diagnosis can be devastating. The younger child may not quite understand all the life changes that may occur because of the diagnosis, such as glucose monitoring and insulin injections. After being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, children may feel: As if they are being punished Fearful of death Hostility toward the parent Although a child who is diagnosed with type 1 diabetes requires supervised medical care, a parent should avoid being overprotective. Through parental encouragement, self-care of the diabetes by the child, starting at the appropriate age, will foster improved self-esteem and independence.

Researchers discover key mutation in acute myeloid leukemia Nov 11, 2010 Enlarge These are acute myeloid leukemia cells. Credit: Washington University Researchers have discovered mutations in a particular gene that affects the treatment prognosis for some patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an aggressive blood cancer that kills 9,000 Americans annually. The scientists report their results in the Nov. 11, 2010, on-line issue of The New England Journal of Medicine. The Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis team initially discovered a mutation by completely sequencing the genome of a single AML patient. They then used targeted DNA sequencing on nearly 300 additional AML patient samples to confirm that mutations discovered in one gene correlated with the disease. Although genetic changes previously were found in AML, this work shows that newly discovered mutations in a single gene, called DNA methyltransferase 3A or DNMT3A, appear responsible for treatment failure in a significant number of AML patients. The finding should prove rapidly useful in treating patients and which may provide a molecular target against which to develop new drugs. "This is a wonderful example of the ability of the unbiased application of whole-genome, DNA sequencing to discover a frequently mutated gene in cancer that was previously unknown to be correlated with prognosis," said Eric D. Green, M.D., Ph.D., director of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), a part of the National Institutes of Health, which co-funded this study. "This may quickly lead to a change in medical care because physicians may now screen for these mutations in patients and adjust their treatment accordingly." The study was carried out by researchers from the Washington University Genome Center and the Siteman Cancer Center at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine. In the study, the researchers found DNMT3A mutations in 21 percent of all AML patients studied and in 34 percent of the patients classified as having an intermediate risk of treatment failure based on widely used laboratory tests of their leukemia cells. More than half of AML patients are classified as having an intermediate risk and are then typically treated with standard chemotherapy. For patients with the DNMT3A mutation, however, chemotherapy may not be the best first treatment. "We have not had a reliable way to predict which of these patients will respond to the standard treatment," said lead author and hematologist Timothy Ley, M.D., the Lewis T. and Rosalind B. Apple Professor of Medicine at Washington University School of Medicine. "In the cases we studied, mutations in the DNMT3A gene trump everything else we've found so far to predict adverse outcomes in intermediate-risk AML."

Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis have identified mutations in a single gene that are associated with a poor prognosis for patients with acute myeloid leukemia. The discovery suggests that a test for mutations in the gene could identify patients who need more aggressive therapy early on. Credit: Washington University in St. Louis Patients with the mutation survived for a median of just over a year, compared to median survival of nearly 3.5 years among those without the mutation. "Based on what we found, if a patient has a DNMT3A mutation, it looks like you're going to want to treat very aggressively, perhaps go straight to bone marrow transplantation or a more intensive chemotherapy regimen," says senior author Richard K. Wilson, Ph.D., director of Washington University's Genome Center. As part of the new research, the investigators looked to see which treatments the patients received and how they fared. Those with DNMT3A mutations treated with bone marrow transplants lived longer than those who received only chemotherapy, but the Washington University investigators caution that the sample size was small and follow-up studies will be needed to confirm these initial findings. "This discovery is a clear example of the power of comprehensive analysis of cancer genomes," said Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D., director of the National Institutes of Health. "By using high-throughput DNA sequencing, researchers will be able to discover all of the common genetic changes that contribute to cancer. With that knowledge, a growing list of targeted treatments will be developed, based on a firm biological understanding of the disease." Launched in 2006 as a partnership between the National Cancer Institute and the National Human Genome Research Institute, both NIH components, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) has developed a comprehensive strategy for comparing the genome of cancer cells to the genome of normal cells from the same patient. This allows the identification of genetic changes that cause the uncontrolled growth of a cancer cell. TCGA also biologically characterizes the tumors in several other ways. Together, the TCGA data can be linked to clinical data to help researchers understand the characteristics of the tumor being studied. The project plans to analyze up to 500 patient samples of tumor and normal tissue in 20 major types of cancer over the next five years. "Cancer is a genetic disease," said NCI Director Harold Varmus, M.D. "Every discovery teaches us more and more about the many ways genes can be deranged in a tumor cell to make it grow out of control. While we generally describe some 200 types of cancer based on where they originate in the body, genetics may show us that there are thousands of different types, each requiring different treatments. Fortunately, we are now acquiring the tools we need to understand them and to make important progress." Washington University is a TCGA participant and has pioneered the use of comprehensive, genome-wide approaches to study cancer. Although the AML study just reported was not part of TCGA, the Washington University team has donated nearly 200 AML samples for comprehensive genomic analysis to the TCGA program. The AML results and all TCGA analyses can be found at its data portal, http://cancergenome.nih.gov/dataportal, which provides direct access to the genomic analytic datasets, with selected patient genetic and clinical data limited to researchers qualified through an NIH review and approval process designed to safeguard participant privacy. "This work represents the culmination of years of collaborative research that has focused on cataloging the mutations involved in AML," says co-author John Dipersio, M.D., Ph.D., chief of the division of oncology and deputy director of the Siteman Cancer Center. "This work provides a pathway and a foundation for doing the same in all other malignancies that could potentially lead to more effective, targeted therapies. AML is a cancer of the blood. Like most cancers, it develops from mutations that occur in cells over the course of many years during a person's life and not from inherited genetic errors present at birth. AML strikes some 13,000 Americans annually, killing 9,000. The disease occurs most often in adults and becomes more difficult to treat as patients age. The five-year survival rate for adults with AML is about 20 percent.

Global ecommerce sales topped $1 tn in 2012 Feb 05, 2013 Enlarge A woman uses an iPad to shop online in Sydney on July 29, 2011. Global Internet retail sales topped $1 trillion for the first time in 2012 with the United States holding the top spot but China rising fast, a market research firm said Tuesday. Global Internet retail sales topped $1 trillion for the first time in 2012 with the United States holding the top spot but China rising fast, a market research firm said Tuesday. The report by eMarketer said ecommerce consumer sales grew 21.1 percent to just over $1 trillion, and are expected to grow another 18.3 percent in 2013, fueled by strong growth in Asia. The research firm said North America remained the top region for ecommerce in 2012 with $364 billion in sales, up 13.9 percent. But for 2013, the Asia-Pacific region is likely to be number one with 30 percent growth, which would bring the market to $433 billion, eMarketer said. US ecommerce sales for 2012 were estimated at $343 billion, with Japan in second place at $127 billion, followed by Britain ($124 billion) and China ($110 billion). But China was projected to vault into second place with 65 percent growth in 2013 to $181 billion. The US will remain the top market but growth will slow to 12 percent, for a total of $384 billion. "Average spending per user is lower in China—set to reach just $670 this year," eMarketer said in a statement. "But the sheer growth in China's digital buyers is staggering. The country will nearly double the number of people who buy goods online between 2012 and 2016." The data used by eMarketer includes retail sales, travel sales, digital downloads purchased via any digital channel but excludes gambling and event tickets.

Computer scientist to 'unroll' papyrus scrolls buried by Vesuvius May 24th, 2009 in Technology / Computer Sciences On Aug. 24, 79 A.D., Italy's Mount Vesuvius exploded, burying the Roman towns of Herculaneum and Pompeii under tons of super-heated ash, rock and debris in one of the most famous volcanic eruptions in history. Thousands died. But somehow, hundreds of papyrus scrolls survived -- sort of -- in a villa at Herculaneum thought to have been owned at one time by Julius Caesar's father-in-law. The scrolls contained ancient philosophical and learned writings. But they were so badly damaged -- literally turned to carbon by the volcanic heat -- that they crumbled when scholars first tried to open them centuries later. The remaining scrolls, stored away in Italy and France, haven't been read -- or even unrolled -- since 79 AD. Now, a computer scientist from the University of Kentucky hopes that modern digital technology will allow him to peer inside two of the fragile scrolls -- without physically opening them -- and unlock secrets they have held for almost 2,000 years. Brent Seales, the Gill professor of engineering in UK's computer science department, will use an X-Ray CT scanning system to collect interior images of the scrolls' rolled-up pages. Then, he and his colleagues hope to digitally "unroll" the scrolls on a computer screen so scholars can read them. "It will be a challenge because today these things look more like charcoal briquets than scrolls," Seales said. "But we're using a non-invasive scanning system, based on medical technology, that lets you slice through an object and develop a three-dimensional data set without having to open it, just as you would do a CT scan on a human body." The two scrolls that Seales and his team will work on are stored at the French National Academy in Paris. The UK group will spend July working there. Their system was developed at UK through the EDUCE project, or Enhanced Digital Unwrapping for Conservation and Exploration, which Seales launched through a grant from the National Science Foundation. Experts say that if the UK system works as well as hoped, it could provide a safe new way to decipher and preserve more scrolls from Herculaneum, as well as other ancient books, manuscripts and documents that are too fragile to be opened. "No one has yet really figured out a way to open them," says Roger Macfarlane, a professor of classics at Brigham Young University who also has worked on scrolls from Herculaneum. "If Brent is successful it would be a huge, potentially monumental step forward." Seales admits that there are hurdles, the biggest being the carbon-based ink thought to have been used on the scrolls. He says that since the papyrus in the scrolls was turned to carbon by the fury of Vesuvius, it might be impossible to visually separate the writing from the pages, even with powerful computer programs. "The open question is, will we be able to read the writing?" Seales said. "There is a chance that we won't be able to do it with our current machine, and that we'll have to re-engineer some things. But if that's the case, that's what we will do." Seales, who is from Buffalo, N.Y., grew up with two passions: computers and the humanities. His double major in undergraduate school was computer science and violin. While working on computer imaging in graduate school, Seales became interested in how that technology might be used to digitally preserve old manuscripts and documents. By the early 1990s, he was developing systems to read old records that were crumpled and wrinkled with age. As a result, he joined an international computer team that digitized the oldest known complete text of Homer's Iliad, which is stored in Venice, Italy. The project, ultimately completed at UK's Center for Visualization and Virtual Environments, produced new digital images, bringing to life sections of the text from the 10th century B.C. that previously were little more than ink smudges. Developing a method to virtually unroll and copy ancient documents too delicate for normal handling was the next step. This is the system that Seales and his colleagues will use on the Herculaneum scrolls. If it works, what will they find? The best guess is that the scrolls contain writings by Philodemus, a Roman writer and Epicurean philosopher born about 110 B.C. Philodemus is not considered a classical thinker of the first rank, but he was a contemporary of Cicero. He taught Virgil and is thought to have influenced the Roman poet Horace. Philodemus also was a friend of Lucius Calpurnius Piso -- the father-in-law of Julius Caesar -- who at one time owned that luxurious villa at Herculaneum. The mansion had passed to other hands, however, when it and Herculaneum were buried during the eruption of 79 A.D. Afterward, Herculaneum lay hidden for 1,600 years, until excavators stumbled upon it in 1709. The villa itself was not uncovered until the mid-1700s. Inside its library, investigators found what they first thought to be lumps of coal but that turned out to be papyrus scrolls -- about 1,800 in all -- fused into blackened cylinders by furious volcanic heat. The building became known as the Villa of the Papyri. According to Seales, the scrolls did not burn because the building so was completely encased in ash and lava that no oxygen was available to feed any flames. Ironically, experts say that the papyrus, made of plant material, almost certainly would have decomposed over the last 2,000 years had it not been sealed in what amounted to an airtight vault. What survived was incredibly fragile. Many scrolls simply crumbled when early researchers tried to open them. A Vatican priest eventually developed a way of opening a few scrolls, but it was slow and produced mixed results. Most were never unrolled. The majority of the scrolls ultimately went to a library in Naples. But Napoleon had several shipped to France when he took over Italy after 1800. Among these scrolls are the two that the UK team plans to investigate. Seales describes the process as resembling a "virtual colonoscopy," a medical test for colon cancer. "In a colonoscopy, you're interested in whether there's cancerous activity on the wall of the colon," he said. "So you can imagine locating that in a scan, then flattening it out and manipulating it to see what you can see. We'll be doing a similar sort of thing." According to Seales, many experimental scans probably will be necessary, plus much additional computer work afterward, to produce clear images. Members of the UK group won't touch the fragile materials. All handling will be done by conservators at the French National Academy. Macfarlane, the Brigham Young University scholar, predicted that if Seales' team is successful, other Herculaneum scrolls probably also will be made available for scanning. Those could contain works by other ancient writers, more important than Philodemus, perhaps by Epicurus, who founded one of the major philosophies of ancient Greece, Macfarlane said. "If Brent does unlock the door to reading these scrolls that are still hiding text, there will be a lot of excitement," he said. Seales sees other potential applications for the system, including deciphering otherwise unreadable written materials for homeland security purposes. But, he also admits that there are other ancient tests he'd like to examine. "There are pieces of the Dead Sea scrolls that still haven't been opened yet," he said. "I've talked with some members of teams that work with those materials, and I'd love to see what more we could wring out of them. "I guess I just like solving mysteries."

Rutgers expert says Mayans never forecast Dec 21st apocalypse December 17th, 2012 in Other Sciences / Other Enlarge Twelve percent of Americans believe the world will end on December 21. Twelve percent of Americans believe the world will end on December 21. December 21st may not be the end of the world as we know it, but if next week's predicted apocalypse falls through, America's many doomsday prophets will invariably choose a new date, says Stuart Charme, a Rutgers-Camden professor of religion. The basis for the latest End Times date is the Mayan calendar, which stops on 12/21/2012. Although the Mayans themselves didn't really forecast an apocalypse, explains Charme, some have interpreted the date to be a sign that life on Earth will be snuffed out next Friday. Scenarios of the world's end have a strong tradition in United States. From the Book of Revelation to the present day explosion of zombie films and TV shows, apocalyptic thinking has always been with us. According to polls, at least 40 percent of Americans believe Jesus will return to Earth by 2050. Twelve percent believe the Mayan calendar is correct and the world will end on December 21, says Charme, who teaches a class called "End of the World.'' Although it's easy for skeptics to dismiss the predictions as crackpot theories, Charme says they're not all that outrageous. "Just because some people have some unrealistic ideas shouldn't distract us from the fact that there are challenges that humanity is going to have to confront. Whether it's climate change or fossil fuel running out or the world's population straining resources, humans are going to have to change their attitudes and behavior." Rutgers Today: Why is there such a focus on the Mayan calendar as signifying the end of the world? Charme: The Mayan theory has been percolating in New Age spiritual circles for at least five years, combining ideas about the world's end with the expectation of some huge transformation of human consciousness. There's a feeling that ancient cultures had insights and wisdom that we don't have. People who believe this think there's a possibility that a sudden reversal of the magnetic poles of the world or the alignment of the earth, the sun and the center of the galaxy on the winter solstice will have catastrophic consequences. This isn't really something the Mayans would have expected. I think they had a sense that the earth goes through different cycles and where the calendar ends is just the end of one cycle and the beginning of another. There wasn't this notion of cataclysmic destruction. They had every expectation that history was going to continue. Rutgers Today: How does the Biblical account of the End Times differ from the December 21 model? Charme: The Book of Revelation predicts there will be a cosmic battle between the forces of good and evil. Some believe that before this happens true believers will be lifted up from Earth into some kind of heaven. This is known as "the Rapture." Then there will be great tribulation – storms, floods, earthquakes, disease. Everything will culminate in a final battle between the forces of the anti-Christ, often symbolized as a beast and the forces of God led by Jesus. Rutgers Today: How is the idea of the apocalypse manifested in pop culture? Charme: Zombies have really taken the place of the kind of mutant monsters, like Godzilla and giant ants, which first showed up in the '50s and '60s in apocalyptic movies. It's not very hard to determine that they were symbolic of a whole variety of threats, from radiation to nuclear annihilation and societal collapse. Today, zombies appear in a post-apocalyptic world where the institutions of society have collapsed and we are all reduced to a base level of survival. The causes of zombies are often envisioned as a virus produced by corporate, scientific or government projects gone wrong. We see that the major pillars of society can't be trusted. It's very conspiratorial. But on a simpler level, zombies are also images of mutilated, dying bodies that may reflect fears of terrorism and other threats. Rutgers Today: When the world doesn't end on the designated day, what's the response of people who believed those predictions? Charme: There are usually a couple of strategies: One is to recalculate the date or reframe what the end of the world really means—that the date was really the beginning of a new transformation and not literally the end of the world or that the earth was spared because of the prayers of devout people. Very low on the list is to decide that focusing on the end of the world is foolish and you shouldn't put any more energy into it. Rutgers Today: What are your plans on December 21? Charme: I'm having some students who were in the graduate version of my class come over to my house for an end of the world party. I don't know exactly what we'll do. I'm not sure what end of the world activities would really look like. One of my students recommended that we play Twister.

Loves watching the Nucks Loss [br]I have no comments on the goaltending situation in Vancouver (many fine points have been made), but I would like to comment on the subject heading ("love watching the Canucks Loss") and the comments made ("Canucks suck," etc.) live in Edmonton, and while I cheer for the home team, I consider myself more of a hockey fan than a fan of any particular team. (I grew up watching the Habs, and before the Oilers entered the NHL.) When I was younger, I used to hate certain teams, but after watching players move around so much (and between teams I either liked or disliked), and realizing (after all) that no one team has a monopoly on just having "idiots" on their team, or conversely, no one team has a monopoly on just having "nice guys" (granted, some teams are classier than others, but it's by degree), I became less a fan of any particular team, but more a fan of the game, and the teams which played (or play) the game with the most skill and class. To give you an example, I usually cheer for Montreal in most series, but this year, I prefer the Senators. While Ottawa has not handled themselves perfectly, the way the Habs played in game three turned me off. So I wouldn't be disappointed to see this year's "version" of the Montreal Canadiens lose. I don't hate the Canadiens for all time, but this year, I prefer the Senators a bit more.) Getting back to the subject at hand ("happy to see the Canucks lose"), I just don't get it. I definitely understand rivalries in hockey, and fans who devote themselves to one team or another, but I just don't understand the degree to which the Canucks are vilified (may be too strong a word) by a large number of Canadian hockey fans. (Some would say more than any other Canadian team.) Does it go back to 1972 when the Vancouver fans booed (some not all) booed the Canadian team for the way they played against the Russians in the Summit Series? Does it have something to do with the ugly jerseys they wore for many years? More recently, is it because of certain players, like Burrows, Kessler or Luongo, who seem to be despised by non-Canuck fans? (I could point out "unlikeable" players on most teams.) Maybe it's because "we're" envious that Vancouver is such a beautiful city? Or is it because of their success, or lack thereof (perceived) on the ice? People can criticize the Canucks for not winning a cup with their lineup the past 5-6 years, but what other Canadian team has come close? Only Ottawa did in 2007, but they lost 4-1 in the finals to Anaheim. The Canucks were one goal from winning the cup in 2011. In the past six seasons (not counting this year), the Canucks have won the same number of playoff rounds (six) as the other six Canadian teams combined! (Ottawa has three as noted, and Montreal has the other three playoff round victories.) The Canucks are the best Canadian team since the 2004-2005 lockout no matter how you look at it. And if the remaining knock is the lack of a Stanley Cup, you have to take into account the parity in the NHL now. There are no dynasties anymore. There has not been a repeat winner in 15 years, and the last nine winners are nine different teams. (And very good teams, including Detroit, Anaheim, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Boston, etc.) So if the knock on the Canucks is their record, I don't get it. But I'm sure whatever it is, someone will fill me in on what I'm missing! :) Posted - 05/04/2013 : 01:15:12 Go sharks go ..Lou is such a Good Goalie .. Why in the Heck does he get left out to dry every night in the Playoff's .. If it wasn't for Lou that would have been a route tonight in Van city...Good on Lou for getting out next season Why would i want such a brutall team Playing in front of me in the Playoff's...Cancucks Suck..

The other night Bieksa gos out and says o well the Sharks are embellishing the calls, instead of saying our penalty kill needs to be better because their power play is strong. They make excuses instead of owning their mistakes and addressing them.In fairness, Bieksa did both. Go back and listen to his post game interview and he gives a ton of credit to the SJ powerplay. He just doesn't agree with the way they're getting the PP chances.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQRjbrT7phwBest thing he said comes at 1:35 when asked about his team having a history of embellishment. He doesn't deny it. For anyone who doesn't know it, he called his own team mates out for it a couple years back!!! Thing is, he's talking about today (the other day).

I think it's gonna take more than that for this team to be looked at differently for the haters. As far as the team having some sort of "sense of accomplishment", i'm tired of asking for proof. I've heard this so many times yet every time i ask someone for examples of what any Canuck has said or done to imply this, i come up empty??? If you said Canucks fans (i'd prefer "some" Canucks fans) then i might buy it, but to accuse the actual team of portraying this ridiculous. Please feel free to prove me wrong!

Headline, " Bieksa accuses Sharks of Embelishing" http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=669524Bieksa does eventually say they need to be more disciplined but only after he says this:"Five-on-five, we're the better team. Their power play's been hot. We've been giving them too many chances. There's guys on their team, two guys in particular, that are embellishing a lot of calls, making it tough on the officials." and then further down the article:"We absolutely have to be more disciplined," Bieksa said. "After the whistle, we can't have anything of that anymore. We have to have learned our lesson from there. This is a good power play, especially their first unit. They're going out there, they're getting a lot of chances, they're making plays. We can't give them more opportunities. We have to make them earn those chances. Obviously the onus is on us to be more disciplined."Beans, I guess it depends on what you want to see. I see a guy that is frustrated by feeling his team is not getting a fair shake from the refs, but clearly acknowledging that his team needs to play better and take those chances away. You see a guy that is blaming his teams loss solely on the refereeing. There is a big difference between the two.You mentioned you didn't seem much of the series. I watched every minute. The Canucks deserved (nearly) all of the calls that went against them, I'm not going to sit here and claim they were angels - they can play undisciplined hockey at times, and they get caught. However, SJ were also not angels, and deserved more than they got - IMO got away with enough to leave questions. Despite the sweep, except for game 3 this was a very tight series - 2 OT games and one won in the 3rd. I don't recall a penalty differential so wide in a series that was so close.quote:Originally posted by DukeWith regards to the goal-tending situation......how would you feel if you were one of the all-time greats ( which i think Luongo is )......you lead your team to the stanley cup finals ( game 7 was it ? ).....multi - division titles, year in and year out......and your reward is........Every 2nd game a young kid takes your spot in all big games ???.....lmao.....unrealDo you know how many times a great goalie will earn a shut - out after after having a bad game ??........i guess you don`t being a Canucks fan because they don`t get the chance.Duke, I don't know what you're getting at here. Every second game? "The young kid" has been taking Luongo's spot all year long, because he is the starting goalie going forward, and Luongo is not in the long term plans of the Canucks. Luongo played because the starting goalie was injured - once healthy, the starting goalie took over, same as any other team.I'm pretty sure Luongo's feelings had very little if anything to do with the series loss. However, they might have rushed Schneider back from his groin injury... game 3 was certainly not his finest moment.

Posted - 05/11/2013 : 10:01:22 Schneider, who was unable to even back up Luongo in the first two games, made the trip to San Jose, feeding the rumor mill that he would play in Game 3. "It may be a great thing for us. I think Luongo's been tremendous," McLellan said. "If they want to take that quality of a goaltender out of the lineup and go to the other one, we'll take our chances with that as well." Posted - 05/11/2013 : 09:51:40 I agree with Beans on this one.

I do know who was complaining about it the most. And it's hard for me to think that most of the penalties were not deserved when Vancouver is almost always the playoff penalty leader. Where there is smoke there is often fire. I couldn't agree more. The Canucks complained more than the Sharks. However, the Sharks really didn't have a lot to complain about. I won't bother going into my reasons why i believe the Canucks get the "short end of the stick" on a lot of 50/50 calls. It's all in my posts above. I will not deny that some calls were deserved, but many, were very questionable and SJ did the job on the PP and won the games. The team that played better playoff hockey won. Simple as that. Even without ANY questionable calls, i think the Sharks win that series. They had the Canucks number all year, i just don't think they'd have swept them. Heck, i even picked Sharks in 6. quote:Originally posted by Beans15As far as the division comments and they played in a weak division. Sure. I agree. But that doesn't change the fact that Vancouver was almost aways a top 10 team in the NHL as well. Plus a Pres Trophy winner twice. To only make it out of the 2nd round once in 10 years for a team as good as they should be is underacheiving. Absolutely. I won't deny that they've underachieved. And yet again, i'll emphasise that my problem was with the way Willis portrayed them as "losers". It is implied that the core of the team hasn't, can't, never will, etc win at important times. If the Cup is the be all end all, there's a lot of so called "losers" out there! The other problem is, we'd be sitting here debating if the Canucks had gone to the semi's for 9 of the last 10 years, only you'd be saying they're losers because "they can't win when it matters most" or something along those lines! quote:Originally posted by Beans15As far as my bias, whatever. There is nothing I can do to convice you otherwise but I think that Vancouver does complain about the refs and the way they are treated more than most teams out there. I'm not saying bad calls don't happen and that teams (and fans) don't get upset with bad calls. I just think Vancouver complains about it more than most. I think their coach is one of the biggest complainers in the league. So when the leader is a complainer the followers think it's ok. Once more, i won't deny this. But like i explained, i really believe the Canucks and the reputation they've earned, do tend to get the short end of the stick when it comes to borderline calls, more often than most teams. I'm not alone on this btw, i've heard it discussed on "the panel", on radio and television sports shows, etc., and not just in the Vancouver market. This is why, i think they need to make a few big changes and shake up the roster to a point that it's a fresh start. quote:Originally posted by Beans15We'll see what Gillis does in the offseason unless he is fired too. Personally, i don't see Gillis going. AV for sure, but i think Gillis is in good with the owners and i don't think he'll be relieved of his duties. He's been pretty good at the contract end of things and he's made some good deals. Sure, there's some that don't look great right now, but every GM has some of those. Not to mention, most of those deals were considered good when they were made. Take Booth for example. Many call it a bust of a deal, but do they remember what the trade actually was? To refresh anyone who doesn't, it was Booth, Reinprecht AND a 3rd for Marco Sturm and Mikael Samuelsson. Today, many call Booth a "bust" and the trade "awful". Really? Cuz those same people are likely the ones who, like me, thought the trade was great at the time! Unfortunately for Booth, he can't seem to stay away from injuries and it's affected his development / success. Ballard is another example. Personally i didn't love the deal, but many around here did. I didn't like the 1st rounder they threw in but had no problem with Grabner being dealt. Either way, whether it was the hip injury he brought to Vancouver or the coach just not liking his game, he's been virtually useless here. What i'm getting at is it's very easy to complain about dead weight on a team, but it's not really fair if the same complainers were applauding the aquisitions at the time. Anyway, i'm off topic and should start a new "What will the Nucks (just for you) do now?" thread i guess? I think i'll leave that for now........

Not until Slozo and Leafs81, I hope those guys see TO come back and win against Boston. I am not cheering for the Leafs but I want to see those guys get to see good things happen to their team. The same goes for Vancouver. I'd like to see Alex and Nux see the Canucks succeed. They are great fans and deserve it. But that doesn't change my opinion that the team doesn't know how to win, which makes them losers by default.

Please feel free to explain to me how i implied that myself or any Canucks fans aren't biased. All i did was ask you to take away your bias for a minute and answer / comment on 2 things:1. Take your bias / hatred out of the equation and you'd prob see a lot more borderline calls against the Canucks than the Sharks.2. How about Bieksa's "crosscheck" errr, love tap that drew the penalty that led to the tying goal? Again, take away your bias and tell me what you think of that call.Now remember, when answering this, assume this call (on Sedin) went against Jordan Eberle in the exact same situation.

I don't recall ever saying, "Hey Beans, unlike us Canucks fans, you are totally biased", or anything even close.Isn't implying that i said that crap one of those "strawman" things you and Slozo always throw out there?quote:Originally posted by Beans15And Alex, your literal take on these comments is laughable. I, nor Willis, did not name a single player on Vancouver as a loser. But, no different than Boston in the 80's, this Canucks team can't seem to find a way to win even though they should. Winning is a culture. Mark Messier won everywhere he went except for Vancouver. Gretzky only won in Edmonton. Oh, so "technically", you're correct, but FYI, Willus stated "The Canucks core players are "losers". ". Trust me, i know who the core of the Canucks is. I'm assuming Willis does as well. You too for what it's worth, though it wasn't your comment so it doesn't really pertain to you anyway.quote:Originally posted by Beans15I don't think you can name another team who has won 7 of 10 division titles and 2 President's trophy who lost in the first round three times and only made it out of the second round once. Lol, this is so good! It is always pointed out, by you and many others, that the division titles the Canucks have won have a lot to do with the competition they play against within said division. Let's face it, it's not been a very difficult division to win. So, one one hand, their division titles are somewhat tainted (just picking a word here), but on the other, they're division champs and ought to have better results because of it. It all depends on what you're arguing is guess? Lemme clarify, i think they should have made the 2nd and 3 round a couple more times, absolutely. I'm just pointing out how you're using the division title thing to your advantage when it's convenient for you. quote:Originally posted by Beans15Sorry guys, but you saying the Canucks are not losers is about as laughable as me trying to say the same thing about the Oilers. The Canucks should be better and they are not. Again, i'm not saying they didn't "lose". However, and i made this clear, i took issue with the term "losers" as being more of an insult than a technical term. And i take issue with the fact that because they haven't won the cup, they're simply losers for life? What about all those other guys i mentioned who never "won the big one when it mattered"??? (i could name many more as well if you want?) I missed the part where you commented on that part of my post. Oh, right, you picked and chose the parts you thought you had a good retort for. quote:Originally posted by Beans15But don't forget, it am the only biased one here. Again there strawguy....i don't recall saying that. Bottom line is, i've tried to take my bias out of the equation and see both sides. I have admitted that guys like Kesler and Burrows were bad for embellishment and though i feel Burrows has improved, Kesler has not (or did, and has relapsed to his old ways). I've given you my opinion that the Canucks have earned a reputation around the league and the makeup of the team needs to change. I have not sat here claiming that the league is out to get them or that the refs are out to get them or that there's some sort of conspiracy theory going against them. I've removed my bias and made my points. Time for you to do the same. Here, try it with this.........Do you feel that Joe Thornton embellished the slashing call. *PLEASE NOTE*, i'm not asking you if you think it was a penalty, just whether or not he embellished the slash to make sure it was called?Here, in case you wanna double check before you answer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khCm7Ly0pjk Posted - 05/10/2013 : 05:09:05 I'm biased but the Canuck fans are not? That's rich. Don't believe me? Here you go. Headline, " Bieksa accuses Sharks of Embelishing" http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=669524Bieksa does eventually say they need to be more disciplined but only after he says this:"Five-on-five, we're the better team. Their power play's been hot. We've been giving them too many chances. There's guys on their team, two guys in particular, that are embellishing a lot of calls, making it tough on the officials." I'm not saying this is the end all be all but it is an example of what the rest of us see. After game one, AV complained about the Sharks cheating on face offs. It's just another example of the Canucks using excuses. I their losses to Chicago it was bad riffing. In their loss to Boston, the bruins we also getting favourable calls. The world is against me Canucks right? What a joke.And Alex, your literal take on these comments is laughable. I, nor Willis, did not name a single player on Vancouver as a loser. But, no different than Boston in the 80's, this Canucks team can't seem to find a way to win even though they should. Winning is a culture. Mark Messier won everywhere he went except for Vancouver. Gretzky only won in Edmonton. Groups of players can be in a culture of losing even thought they are excellent hockey players. The Oilers today are in that boat. As are Vancouver, and historically the Sharks have been too. I think for different reasons than the Canucks but they are all organizations that should have better results than what they get. I don't think you can name another team who has won 7 of 10 division titles and 2 President's trophy who lost in the first round three times and only made it out of the second round once. Sorry guys, but you saying the Canucks are not losers is about as laughable as me trying to say the same thing about the Oilers. The Canucks should be better and they are not. But don't forget, it am the only biased one here. leigh Posted - 05/09/2013 : 23:51:12 quote:Originally posted by Guest0815I saw a guy with a luongo jersey on and it had luongo crossed out and schneider written below it and that was also crossed out and below it was luongo again lol! true that.So Brilliant!!!!! Posted - 05/09/2013 : 21:38:20 Willis (and Beans)....Ridiculous. You gave a post with your opinion, mine is an opinion of your opinion. Now, lemme clarify. By "losers", i can't deny the Canucks lost. They lost this year, they lost last year, the year before, etc. I talk of the Stanley Cup of course. So, if that's what you're talking about, as "losers", i take it back. However, if you're implying "losers" in an insulting sort of way, ahem, the way it sounds like you are, then i take issue. "The core of the team" are losers eh? They all whine, cry, make excuses, etc huh? Sure, i won't deny some do and have in the past, but i'll also point out that it's not unusual at this time of year when things come under the microscope. You make it seem as though the Canucks aren't just the first to do this, but the only team!!! FTR, Daniel Sedin "screamed at the ref" and later (following the game), apologized. Is this "crying"? Is this "whining"? Is this "complaining"? Or is this a frustrated guy, who's been called out in the past for having NO PHYSICALITY whatsoever to his game, who's upset and frustrated at what most would agree was an extremely borderline call to make in that situation? He showed emotion, something else he's been accused of in the past. As far as Bieksa's comments, yeah he complained. Do i need to back over ever series over the past 5-10 years and show you examples of where this exact thing occurs by either players or management, cuz it happens VERY OFTEN. If you disagree, you're blind to it. Here's the thing, the Canucks have gotten a reputation, somewhat deservedly so. Burrows and Kesler, a few years back, were two of the worst for embellishing and bending the rules. Both smartened up a year later, yet i'll admit, as did Kesler already personally, that Kesler relapsed and was guilty the last season or two of drifting back into the habit of embellishment. This reputation that the Canucks now have, leads to more calls against them, especially the borderline ones. Bob Mackenzie mentioned this today and referred to something Kerry Fraser admitted. A referee is a human being. The human element here causes refs to call more borderline calls against players they either dislike, or feel don't respect them and who have a reputation. Kerry Fraser openly admitted as much! Take your bias / hatred out of the equation and you'd prob see a lot more borderline calls against the Canucks than the Sharks. You need only look at box scores or have watched the games to notice the 24-10 margin in PP's. Tell me, do you thing Sedin's check gets called 100% of the time in that situation? How about Bieksa's "crosscheck" errr, love tap that drew the penalty that led to the tying goal? Again, take away your bias and tell me what you think of that call. Did he complain? YUP! Did you see the interview, cuz it sure as hell didn't appear as though he was "whining". He was stating, matter of factly, his opinion. You know, something many a greats have done in an attempt to subtly bring something to the attention of the refs so as to maybe get a payback call in the games following. If you know hockey as well as i think you guys do, you'd realize this sort of thing happens often in the playoffs, maybe even in more series than it doesn't happen! Now, before you go calling me a conspiracy theorist, that's far from it. I don't think the league is out to get the Canucks, nor do i believe the refs are intentionally trying to screw them. I just agree with what Kerry Fraser said. THAT, is the number 1 reason i believe this team needs wholesale changes and it starts with AV, who i think has been a very good coach here. I just think they need a huge changeover and a fresh start sotospeak. Getting back to the loser bit, how is it that "There are those players who lose when it counts their entire careers. It isn't just bad luck."? Where do you come up with such craziness??? If Ray Bourque hadn't gone to win a cup with the Avs in the twilight of his career, would he have been a loser? Are the Sharks, assuming they don't win this year, a bunch of LOSERS? They've been together as a core with high expectations and even worse results for a longer time than the Canucks. Is Joe Thornton a LOSER if he never wins a cup??? Are Pat Lafontaine, Ron Hextall, Mike Gartner, Adam Oates, Dale Hawerchuk and Marcel Dionne a bunch of losers. Last time i checked, they didn't "win when it mattered most" and you said it yourself, "It isn't just bad luck"!!! nuxfan Posted - 05/09/2013 : 20:39:04 quote:Originally posted by Beans15That is very true Willus.

I never hear him say his team needs to be better. It's always a reason why they lose and it's never about anything they did. You are biased. And it is only your perception - don't confuse what the press may speculate or write about, and what the coach or players actually say. To counter your point, I had to go back exactly...one game:http://video.sharks.nhl.com/videocenter/console?id=245993&catid=-6All I hear in the post-game press conference is:- the team had to kill that penalty and did not- the sharks were the better team and the canucks simply got beaten- Canucks did well 5-on-5, but the SJ PP was better and VAN was not good enough killing- VAN battled hard, SJ was the better team- will need to move forward from this, look to next season- Schneider was the MVP of the season, and should have started game 4Nowhere did I hear anything like:- the refs blew calls that cost us- the team lost because of bad bounces- SJ players cheated, causing penalties to be called- VAN deserved better, but the refs hate usSounds like a lot of admitting that the Canucks didn't play well enough to win, and owning up to the loss. The press conference post-game 4 was eerily like most press conferences that AV gives. I cannot even think of a time when he has credited either a win or a loss to anything other than his team's play (or in this case, lack thereof).

The Duke Posted - 05/08/2013 : 21:23:49 Willus, there is some truth in what you say.....some players are career losers / some players are career winners..I`ll just simply pick out 1 player, and i hated this player, i really did....he pissed me off so much as a hockey fan ...BUT he always seemed to be on winning teams.....ANDalways seemed to be one of the main reasons that team won, so i guess he was a winner..his name is Claude Limeux...There are more Claude Lemieux`s who have played the game ( winners ) and there are and were, many other players who always seemed to fall into the losers category, year in and year out.Years ago I always said that the Leafs would never win the Cup with Sundin as their leader, as skilled as he was, he didn`t have the heart of a Gilmour.....I`ve also always said the same thing of the Sedin`s, as skilled as they are, they don`t have the heart of a Linden.Attitude is a major part of winning, having the guts and determination to go beyond your abilities, giving it all at all costs....these player types are your winners. Posted - 05/08/2013 : 20:16:49 I can't say that I don't enjoy seeing them lose. The question is, why do they continue to lose when it matters? The answer in my opinion is simple. They are a collection of "losers". That may sound trite but in all sports there are "winners" and "losers". There are those players who lose when it counts their entire careers. It isn't just bad luck. The Canucks core players are "losers". It's evident in their behavior every year. This year for example what did they do? After the first game the players complained that SJ was cheating on faceoffs. Then after game 3 they complained about SJ embellishing. Losers make excuses. It's embarrassing really. Whiners, crybabies, losers. The core of the team would rather run their mouths than put in the effort it takes to actually win. Posted - 05/08/2013 : 13:41:37 I have no comments on the goaltending situation in Vancouver (many fine points have been made), but I would like to comment on the subject heading ("love watching the Canucks Loss") and the comments made ("Canucks suck," etc.)live in Edmonton, and while I cheer for the home team, I consider myself more of a hockey fan than a fan of any particular team. (I grew up watching the Habs, and before the Oilers entered the NHL.)When I was younger, I used to hate certain teams, but after watching players move around so much (and between teams I either liked or disliked), and realizing (after all) that no one team has a monopoly on just having "idiots" on their team, or conversely, no one team has a monopoly on just having "nice guys" (granted, some teams are classier than others, but it's by degree), I became less a fan of any particular team, but more a fan of the game, and the teams which played (or play) the game with the most skill and class. To give you an example, I usually cheer for Montreal in most series, but this year, I prefer the Senators. While Ottawa has not handled themselves perfectly, the way the Habs played in game three turned me off. So I wouldn't be disappointed to see this year's "version" of the Montreal Canadiens lose. I don't hate the Canadiens for all time, but this year, I prefer the Senators a bit more.)Getting back to the subject at hand ("happy to see the Canucks lose"), I just don't get it. I definitely understand rivalries in hockey, and fans who devote themselves to one team or another, but I just don't understand the degree to which the Canucks are vilified (may be too strong a word) by a large number of Canadian hockey fans. (Some would say more than any other Canadian team.)Does it go back to 1972 when the Vancouver fans booed (some not all) booed the Canadian team for the way they played against the Russians in the Summit Series?Does it have something to do with the ugly jerseys they wore for many years?More recently, is it because of certain players, like Burrows, Kessler or Luongo, who seem to be despised by non-Canuck fans? (I could point out "unlikeable" players on most teams.)Maybe it's because "we're" envious that Vancouver is such a beautiful city? Or is it because of their success, or lack thereof (perceived) on the ice?People can criticize the Canucks for not winning a cup with their lineup the past 5-6 years, but what other Canadian team has come close? Only Ottawa did in 2007, but they lost 4-1 in the finals to Anaheim. The Canucks were one goal from winning the cup in 2011.In the past six seasons (not counting this year), the Canucks have won the same number of playoff rounds (six) as the other six Canadian teams combined! (Ottawa has three as noted, and Montreal has the other three playoff round victories.) The Canucks are the best Canadian team since the 2004-2005 lockout no matter how you look at it. And if the remaining knock is the lack of a Stanley Cup, you have to take into account the parity in the NHL now. There are no dynasties anymore. There has not been a repeat winner in 15 years, and the last nine winners are nine different teams. (And very good teams, including Detroit, Anaheim, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Boston, etc.)So if the knock on the Canucks is their record, I don't get it. But I'm sure whatever it is, someone will fill me in on what I'm missing! :) Posted - 05/08/2013 : 13:15:53 The following is an except from a debate about Cujo hall of fame worthy career."Curtis Joseph was brought in as an unrestricted free agent by GM Ken Dryden in 1998 after stints in St. Louis and Edmonton. At 32, Joseph was in the prime of his career and was coming off two seasons where he almost single handedly carried an underdog Oiler team to first round victories over Belfour�s Dallas Stars in 1997and over Patrick Roy�s Colorado Avalanche in 1998. In his 4 seasons in Toronto, the Leafs reached at least the 2nd round of the playoffs every year. In his 1st season, a team that did not have a great deal of talent was able to defeat Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, mostly on the back of Cujo, but finally lost in the conference finals to Buffalo. In the 2nd and 3rd seasons, the Leafs defeated Ottawa in the first round, but the Leafs could not best the more-talented New Jersey Devils. The 4th season was perhaps the most trying, with the Olympic drama in Salt Lake City that raised discontent between Joseph and Coach Pat Quinn and an injury to his catching hand that made him miss the last 20 games of the season. The Leafs suffered a slew of injuries early in the playoffs(including Mats Sundin and Darcy Tucker) and had to rely on a skeleton crew, players like Travis Green, Alyn McCauley and Shayne Corson. This put more pressure on Joseph to carry the team on his shoulders and he did, defeating the NY Islanders in a brutal 7 game series and then upsetting the favored Ottawa Senators in 7 games, before finally succumbing to the Carolina Hurricanes. Mostly due his relationship with Pat Quinn, Cujo decided to leave Toronto and signed for big money in Detroit."I don't see this Vancouver team as anything similar to the teams which Cujo played for. I would say Loungo benifited as much from being a Canuck as the Canucks have benifited from his steady play. And that just it, he's more steady than game stealing. Alas, the Loungo era is done in Vancouver me thinks."I now realise that the Toronto Maple Leafs, Canada's finest hockey team, is better than the Ottawa Senators - and always will be. PS - LOVE that Dion Phaneuf! " Posted - 05/08/2013 : 12:55:37 Ok, Alex. Point made. I haven't seen the 1 game stealing game Loungo had that you pointed out, but game 7 SCF and the Canucks as the team in question, I guess Loungo can be or could have been considered clutch. I'd still take the standing on his head performance's Cujo did over Loungo in the playoffs, but thats because I witnessed the game stealing performances live. Just a question, but doesn't Cujo have a stanely cup ring. He might not have been healthy for the playoff winning game, but I thought he was on the Detroit roster."I now realise that the Toronto Maple Leafs, Canada's finest hockey team, is better than the Ottawa Senators - and always will be.

Tough crowd. That's all he has to do to be considered "clutch"? So, Cujo's not clutch? I don't recall him having too many SCF wins? So, if Luongo goes on to the 7th game of the SCF again and has 15 wins, all by shutout, but loses the 7th game in OT 1-0, he's STILL not clutch???

That is my opinion of a goalie who WINS big games. Chris Osgood was in net for 3 Stanley Cups and I don't think that guy ever won a game. His team won the game. Same goes for Luongo.As far as Cugjo goes, the guy has 30 win seasons with 5 different teams. The first goalie to to that. Look at the list of teams he played on?? Edmonton, St. Louis, Toronto, Phoenix, and Detroit. 4 of those 5 teams were below average. How about Cujo stopping 119 of 122 shots in back to back double overtime games against Chicago in 91?? Nothing like facing 60 shots a night and letting in 1 or 2 goals. What about Cujo backstopping the Oilers to huge upset wins in 97 and 98 against Dallas and Colorado?? What about Cujo being a key piece of TO making the Eastern Conference Final in 99 and 02??Cujo was the REASON most of those teams did what they did. He was not part of the reason, he was the only reason. Take him out of net in those spots and it's likely his team losses.I would argue that had another goalie been in net for the 'big games' that Luongo has been involved in and the result isn't different.Can't disagree with what you've said here Beans. Luongo has been about as close as you can get to sealing the deal and being able to say he WAS that big game goalie . . . because he certainly has won some big games, that Game 7 in the first round against Chicago in particular, without him they don't win that game. And yet, I'd have to agree with yo that he's fallen a bit short, and until he has a game to win it all in the final, he won't be considered truly clutch.Your Cujo example is excellent - I know from the Leaf part of that analogy, without Cujo, they probably don't make it past the first round even. On his own, he won two games for each series almost, especially on that one run (I think it was the first year)."Take off, eh?" - Bob and Doug Posted - 05/07/2013 : 22:23:12 Thank god there done .....Dont have to hear no more BS from the dumb good for nothing Pinheads..... Posted - 05/07/2013 : 18:01:11 I enjoyed that article thanks. I guess I missed that game and that is something I would need to see to call him a big game goalie. From the games I have seen, I haven't actually witnessed him steal one. I am not saying he isn't capable, I have watched a lot of Canucks playoff hockey and I can always remember the ones that got away for the Canucks, but can't remember the ones he stole."I now realise that the Toronto Maple Leafs, Canada's finest hockey team, is better than the Ottawa Senators - and always will be. PS - LOVE that Dion Phaneuf! " Posted - 05/07/2013 : 16:57:34 Hey, i'm not saying he's regularly stolen games his team shouldn't have won. I really don't think he's had as many opportunities as a lot of other goalies have. My whole argument is twofold. 1, he can and has won big games. I don't consider big games to be ONLY those he's "stolen" on nights his team shouldn't have won, but if that's your idea, here's one: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/384464-la-kings-finished-canucks-roberto-luongo-steals-the-game 2, if you're gonna blame him for losses in big games, its only fair then to credit him with wins in big games even if he didn't "steal" the game (ex, gold medal win 2010) Posted - 05/07/2013 : 16:32:22 The last time I watched Cujo live steal a game in the playoffs was at the end of his career in Calgary when he relieved Kipper after he had a stinker, Cujo came in with his magic and lifted the whole team. You could feel it in the building like you were watching something special. It was only one game, but I swear I never thought I'd hear a Calgary crowd cheer out Cujo prior to that day."I now realise that the Toronto Maple Leafs, Canada's finest hockey team, is better than the Ottawa Senators - and always will be. PS - LOVE that Dion Phaneuf! " Posted - 05/07/2013 : 16:27:11 Alex, Bean's has a point about Cujo being a big game goalie. He did steal games on a irregular basis, and could have a stinker every once in a while, but overall he is one of the better playoff goalies of recent memory. His teams in most cases shouldn't have won, but due to his incredible play won on his teams worst nights. I just don't see Loungo rising in the playoffs like some of the greats. He is a great regular season goalie and his career stats are amazing. He is proving me wrong about his team oriented nature and playing great hockey dispite a horrible situation in Vancouver, but he is not singlehandedly winning games like other great goalies have."I now realise that the Toronto Maple Leafs, Canada's finest hockey team, is better than the Ottawa Senators - and always will be. PS - LOVE that Dion Phaneuf! " Posted - 05/07/2013 : 10:10:06 So, who's the judge of a goalie actually being the reason his team won a game? Is there a standard? Does his team have to be outshot at a 2-1 ratio? Does he have to make over 50 saves? Do 10+ have to be of the highlight variety? Let's face the reality here. NO GOALIE HAS EVER SINGLE HANDEDLY WON THEIR TEAM A HOCKEY GAME!!! It's a figure of speech really and nothing more. I'm absolutely certain that somewhere in all those Detroit "big" games that Osgood helped steal a game that perhaps Detroit maybe didn't deserve to win after being outplayed. Same goes for Luongo, though neither of these two really have had the number of chances as some other goalies seeing as they've played on some really good teams. Really not important anyway, my whole point was saying that i don't feel it's fair that a guy can be blamed for losing a big game, but not get credit for winning a big game unless he somehow steals it??? Game 7 in 2011 vs Chicago is a great example. Luongo stopped 31 shots in a 2-1 OT pressure cooker to get the win but he's still never won a big one? Why, because Chicago couldn't muster 50+ shots? I won't waste our time arguing about Joseph, i already said they were very similar. But i will say, the 30 wins on 5 different teams doesn't impress me much at all. The reason more goalies haven't done that is because they're not usually expendable and get moved around the league like he somehow did.

Posted - 05/06/2013 : 14:42:48 quote:Originally posted by Beans15Hey Alex, before you get all excited about my comments, please read them at face value. I am not nor have I ever implied that Luongo is the reason his team may lose big games. Not in the least. In many cases he does his job and the blame is not his. However, I don't think you, or anyone else for that matter, can honest say he has been robbed of any credit for big wins. He is not often the reason for the loss but also not the reason for the win. Great, elite, all time goalies found a way to WIN those games regardless of what happened in front of them. Luongo has never been that guy. That is why he won't go down in history with the likes of Broduer, Fuhr, Hasek, Joseph, Belfour et al. Even though Luongo is a better goalie than some of those guys. Those guys stepped up and won. Luongo didn't.FWIW Beans, i wasn't getting "excited" whatsoever. I was simply pointing out that i don't think it's fair to say he can't win big games that he has, because he didn't totally dominate and steal them, but claim he can choke in big games because he gives up a bad goal? THAT, is what many try to claim, and it's silly. In Vancouver (Olympics), he was put in a situation to fail. Home town, many home fans, Canadian fans, great team in front of him, playing with Brodeur on the bench, all expectations of gold, etc. Did he go out and save 50+ shots and help win a game they didn't deserve to? NO. Did he let in soft goals and cost his team the gold? NO. So tell me, does a goalie have to steal a "BIG" game, to be considered to have won a "BIG" game? Example: If the Canucks somehow forced a 7th game vs SJ and won 5-0 (with Luongo in net for all 4 wins), would Luongo have "won a big game" seeing as he didn't "steal" it??? Either way, seems someone at the Associated Press has a similar "Luongo opinion" as i do. Here's a paragraph from an AP article after the gold medal game in 2010: Luongo didn't outplay Miller, but still proved he is a big-game goalie -- something he has never been previously -- by making 34 saves in his own NHL arena. Luongo went 5-0 in the tournament and 4-0 after replacing Martin Brodeur following America's 5-3 win the previous Sunday.As far as those other guys, you're right. Luongo is better than some of them ever were. I'm just wondering though, what's Cujo done than Luongo hasn't? They're very similar really. Vezina finalists, All Star selections, 0 Cups, Gold Medal wins, though he didn't exactly play much of a role in SLC. He played well in most of his stops, but he didn't take any of his teams deep that i recall? At least those others you mentioned have won cups? Again, Cujo was a great goalie, i'm not denying that, but i wouldn't put him "down in history" as being better than Luongo. It's funny though, even you'd agree that Luongo is better than some of those guys, however you can't compare them fairly when you consider the different teams, eras, etc that they played for/in. I don't for a second think Luongo would be "cupless" had he played on some of those Oilers teams that won all those cups!!!

Has been for a very long time. I am also one of the people who said he doesn't seem to be able to win key games. That's not a huge knock on him but it is a fact. I am also one of the people who don't think Luongo was a huge factor in the Gold Medal. I don't think Canada won in spite of him but they didn't win because of him. Regardless, I think Luongo has been unfairly treated for a long time and it's not because he's a poor player. It's because he has a poor contract. Not unlike Horcoff in Edmonton or Redden in New York. Players who get over paid do not automatically become better players although fans often expect that to happen. Now, to the 'Nuck losing. (PS, after 7-8 years I still have no idea what a 'Nuck" is.) Let's look back a little bit. Vancouver wins the President's Trophy and lose to the Bruins in the Cup Finals. They go out and add Hamhuis to their defensive group, win the President's Trophy again and lose in the first round. They go out the next season and add a Garrison and a goalie controversy and they are likely to get swept by the Sharks. A question to Canuck Fans:When will Mike Gillis be held accountable for this team?? Or, is this the fault of Alain Vignault for having the best team in the NHL in 2 of the last 3 seasons and the NW division winner in 7 of the last 10 seasons and have very little to show for it?? All due respect and something you likely know, the window for winning in Vancouver is closing and not opening. They are due for a re-tool and if they don't do that in the next few seasons it will likely be a full re-build.Is AV and MG the right guys to lead this team??(small correction for Beans - Hamhuis was actually acquired before the 2011 season, he was injured in game 1 of the finals)I think at this point it is inevitable that VAN will lose in the first round - truth be told, SJ is simply outplaying them in nearly every regard. The forwards are faster, the defense is better, their goaltending is better. They have been taking away many of the abilities of the Canucks that have allowed them to succeed in recent years - shot blocking to take away the booming point shots, aggressively checking the Sedin's to take away the cycle, and big aggressive bodies to take away the speed. Unless VAN has a complete epiphany and SJ has a complete meltdown, this series is done, and a sweep is likely.To answer Beans's specific question - I think this is the season that MG is held accountable, and my prediction is that both he and AV are fired after the season (I think AV is done for sure). MG has made some good deals for VAN and acquired some good players while here - but the killer for him will be the un-deals that have happened:- Luongo had to be traded last summer, or this past season. It is unforgivable that it has not happened, both for Luongo and for the team. 5.3M in cap space could have gone a long way to helping the team in other ways.- very little help at the trade deadline. As much as I like Roy, you only need to look at SJ, LA, STL, even CHI to know that in order to get through those teams you need size and lots of it. They failed to acquire what they really needed - rumours are they were in the hunt for both Clowe and Torres, and there were likely others.While I think AV and MG will both be gone this summer, I don't think it will end there. Ownership has seen this team get badly outmuscled in 3 straight playoff series (2011 finals, first round in each of the last 2 seasons), and must be wondering if they have the right makeup to compete. They will have to look at dismantling some of their "franchise group" in order to get what they need. It will be interesting to see what happens.Regarding Luongo - I do not buy that he is not a "big game" goalie, he has shown in the past that he can win big and important games in playoff series and the regular season. He certainly does not win them all, but who does? You can point at 17 GA in 3 games in BOS and 3 GA in the final game, I can point at a 2-1 OT win in a hugely important game 7 vs CHI, strong play in the NSH series, and 2 GA and 2 SO's in the 3 games won in the finals. He is inconsistent sometimes, but he is a very good goalie that still has game to give.However, the problem with Luongo is not his play, it is his contract, and the fact that there is a younger, cheaper and for less years version of him in Schneider. If Schneider were not every bit the goalie that he is, there would be no controversy - Luongo would be the #1, and Schneids would have been traded at some point in the last 2 years. If Luongo had only 5 years on his deal instead of 10 years, I think the lineup of teams looking to acquire him would have been long. He has been unfairly treated by fans and media here, but mainly because he is constantly held to a contract that he can never justify. It is what it is, and I think this team as a whole will be better once they kill the controversy once and for all.Meanwhile, its summer time in Vancouver, so at least something is going our way. Posted - 05/06/2013 : 12:21:18 Hey Alex, before you get all excited about my comments, please read them at face value. I am not nor have I ever implied that Luongo is the reason his team may lose big games. Not in the least. In many cases he does his job and the blame is not his. However, I don't think you, or anyone else for that matter, can honest say he has been robbed of any credit for big wins. He is not often the reason for the loss but also not the reason for the win. Great, elite, all time goalies found a way to WIN those games regardless of what happened in front of them. Luongo has never been that guy. That is why he won't go down in history with the likes of Broduer, Fuhr, Hasek, Joseph, Belfour et al. Even though Luongo is a better goalie than some of those guys. Those guys stepped up and won. Luongo didn't. Posted - 05/06/2013 : 12:21:06 http://bluetoro.ca/2012/04/25/funny-pictures-about-the-vancouver-canucks/A good site for Nuck's hater photo's.

My favorite cartoon was a post of Loungo holding a beer up and doing the commercial for best man on the planet:I dont always play like crap, but when I do its in the playoffs!I was a Loungo basher, but thats rival team banter. He is an Elite goalie in a poor situation. I am not even gonna bash this team as they have good parts and pieces which may need to do some offseason tinkering. The Sedin's are an easy target for jokes, but most teams would love to have them in there lineup.That being said I have another joke photo, which has the Canucks New syncronized swim team, heads of all the current Canucks on a womans syncro team photo."I now realise that the Toronto Maple Leafs, Canada's finest hockey team, is better than the Ottawa Senators - and always will be.

Sorry, but that's my opinion. You don't get to game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals without winning key games. I'm not saying he stole every game on the way to the finals, but face the facts, he was a Conn Smythe trophy FAVORITE two games into that final series in '11. Now, as for winning a "key game", i won't argue and claim he won them the gold medal game, but, and you're smart enough to understand i'm sure, many of those who claim he can't win the big games, imply that he chokes/implodes, etc in the big games. He may not have won that game single handedly, but he sure as hell didn't throw it away and blow it by giving up a soft goal the a very strong American side. As far as winning a key game, how about game 7 vs Chi in '11? Again, i'm not saying he completely stole the game, but when Burrows took a holding penalty in the first minute of OT, he made a save that many consider the most important of his career off Patrick Sharp on a cross ice feed going post to post to stymie him. THAT save alone was as clutch as you'll ever see considering the circumstances! Bottome line is this. What do you consider a "key game"? If it's game 7 of the SCF's, then i concede, he's 0-1. quote:Originally posted by Beans15Regardless, I think Luongo has been unfairly treated for a long time and it's not because he's a poor player.

He was hurt in game 1 when he delivered a hit on Lucic. The Canucks, not to make excuses, sorely missed him on the back end in that series.

However, AV is definitely gone after this sweep season. I was actually surprised he survived last year. Gillis, i'm not so sure. I think he's done a good enough job to supply the team with enough talent to produce better results than they have. Personally, i'd have Garrison on the first unit PP, but he's anchored on the 2nd? What do i know though? Little things like that i've tired of with AV, but overall, i've liked him. As for the "window"? It's more closed than open at this point, and the rebuild/retool, i'll leave for another thread..... In closing, i leave you this.....sad, but seems true:https://fbcdn-sphotos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/s480x480/65685_10152819442575265_1212986153_n.jpg

« Pajama Boy Jewish According to… Marx? Father of the Canadian Flag Dies, Aged 96 » I Agree With Camille Paglia on This Kind of Family Planning for Teens It's not that we want to limit a girl's choices; rather, we want to help her realistically envision what her future might look like under various scenarios as a result of life choices she makes as a teenager. byPaula Bolyard Page 1 of 3 Next -> View as Single Page Tweet Camille Paglia gave a wide-ranging interview to the Wall Street Journal last week, covering everything from diminished respect for the military to radical feminism as a threat to all of Western civilization. Paglia, a liberal feminist and lesbian who voted for Obama and excels at destroying sacred cows, said that “our culture doesn’t allow women to know how to be womanly” and falsely promises them that they can “have it all.” Paglia also broached a topic that’s not discussed nearly enough, even in conservative circles. Saying that sex education classes focus too much on mechanics, she said that girls should be taught to consider how vocational decisions they make as teens can impact their futures: I want every 14-year-old girl . . . to be told: You better start thinking what do you want in life. If you just want a career and no children you don’t have much to worry about. If, however, you are thinking you’d like to have children some day you should start thinking about when do you want to have them. Early or late? To have them early means you are going to make a career sacrifice, but you’re going to have more energy and less risks. Both the pros and the cons should be presented. In our “have it all” culture, young people — young women in particular — are told to go to college, have a career, and then, perhaps somewhere way off in the future, get married and have kids. But no one really explains to young women about the requisite costs and trade-offs along the way. If a girl thinks she would like to have a family and children some day, it’s essential for her to consider how and when that might happen and whether that goal conflicts with other plans she has for her future. Despite the stereotypes fed to us by Hollywood, for most families, babies do not just pop out into designer 5-bedroom homes with live-in nannies. A 17-year-old girl may not want to think about such mundane things as child care when she is dreaming about a glamorous career as a CSI investigator, but better to consider them at age 17 than to have reality come crashing in later when she has less flexibility to make career-related decisions. Unfortunately, this kind of “family planning” is not only absent from most sex education classes, but it’s also rarely mentioned in career and vocational planning for teens.

They should also understand that the divorce rate is around 50% now. Girls need to understand that this is a reason why it might be very difficult for them to find a man willing to marry them, or at least a man with good earning potential. Monster from the Id "...having babies and then throwing them on the tender mercies of the community as wards of the state is not an acceptable option."Unfortunately, this is now SOP. It's called "school." The only career planning advice I got from school or the culture at large was "You can be anything you want to be!" It took me a few years to learn that that was a crock of s**t. On the other hand my father, a military chap who possibly knew less about "real life" than any civilian, insisted that there are no choices - you just do what you have to do. That wasn't especially helpful, either.The truth, as it turns out, was somewhere in between these two extremes.I could have used the sort of educator or parent Paglia envisions - someone who's "been there" and can tell you what to expect. What's it like to *really* be a business person or a firefighter - or a working mother?It occurs to me, though, that many - if not most - young women today probably have working mothers. Whatever those mothers were like when they started having children, fourteen years later they should have plenty of advice to give their daughters.So it seems like the problem, if there is one, is still the culture. Specifically, the liberal, non-grown-up culture that teaches us that everyone can have everything - that, in fact, everyone DESERVES everything just for showing up. gypciz We had a class in high school (I didn't take it) called "Family Life". It taught that with children comes great responsibility. It filled in the gap left by the sex ed classes focus on "mechanics". However, there was nothing covered on career "options". 11 weeks ago A Ruckus of Dogs What needs to be taught, in no uncertain terms, is that childbearing MUST be delayed until one is married and has an income. Insist that to do otherwise is irresponsible, selfish, and destructive to the child and the society. It's long past time we got judgmental about reckless breeding. AMEN!! I did not have children at all because it occurred to me that to do so was just "for me" & NOT in the best interest of any child I might bear as a single woman. I met "Mr. Right" in my 50's & married him (1st, last & only marriage) at 57. Hubby & I agreed that we would have had children if we had met much earlier in life. Some things in life have to be sacrificed (like me having children) in order to "do the right thing". 11 weeks ago Mike East Bay Duh... Of course these things should be taught, to boys and girls. But isn't this the job of parents? Along with handling half of a classroom that doesn't speak English, a third of the boys on prescribed Ritalin, and the rest of the students on drugs, booze, or a cellphone, we're going to dump this into the laps of teachers who are either overworked or mentally challenged themselves, or who are hard leftists who would wail "academic freedom" and refuse to teach it anyway. Education begins at home. 14 weeks ago M. Report 'Career and family planning as if children mattered.' What a concept !'If you want to make God laugh, make a plan.' particularly with HardTimes coming soon, and technological change proceeding at a pacewhich makes it impossible to plan even twenty years ahead.If one plans on raising a family, move to Texas, settle in a medium-sized city(~100k) in a conservative, middle-class neighborhood. Make friends. Excellent! My only quibble is "twenty years" regarding technological change. In all seriousness, it is more like 14 months. RyDaddy I hate that "50% of marriages end in divorce" statistic that gets thrown around so much. It is horribly misleading and leads to a bad view of marriage. It is achieved by summing ALL marriages, when in reality:~30% of first marriages end in divorce.~40% of second marriages end in divorce.~50% of third marriages end in divorce.~70% of 4th marriages end in divorce.~85% of 5th marriages end in divorceFrom there the numbers get really sad: you are 95% likely to get divorced in its your 6th marriage or more.18-year-olds need to understand THAT when making their life plans. :) "~30% of first marriages end in divorce."And most of those shacked up together before marriage. Those that didn't? I don't have the figure handy, but it's a lot lower. You'd think that by the 3rd or 4th marriage these people would realize being single isn't bad & has a much higher success rate. 11 weeks ago lzzrdgrrl Also what should also be made clear is that having babies and then throwing them on the tender mercies of the community as wards of the state is not an acceptable option. Not if you wish to be regarded as anything like an acceptable human being. Excoriate underclass tendencies vigourously and up front. If the usual suspects complain, crush them even harder - the life of the world and civilisation depends upon it. Melt their faces off....'>......... Agreed that 'education' is a flimsy construction to justify this, same with 'employment'. Both of these conditions are to be back-filled by a solicitous and rather apologetic, errm...... 'infrastructure'; but never EVER to be contemplated prior to the occurrence. That would require planning and a degree of self-denial, and it's oppressive and unjust to ask that.....'>>.... Skeptical Thinker Agree with the substance but why is this the school's job? It is the parents' job to do things like this. 15 weeks ago Paula Bolyard A agree wholeheartedly that it's the parents' job! 15 weeks ago It's everybody's job. The village, the clan and the heads of household. We're all in this together, that's what culture and civilisation is.....;>.......

Obama to send U.S. ambassador back to SyriaPosted byCNN State Department Producer Elise Labott Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, left, welcomes U.S. envoy George Mitchell in Damascus on June 13. WASHINGTON (CNN) - President Barack Obama has decided to send a U.S. ambassador back to Syria, a dramatic sign of reconciliation between the two countries, the State Department announced Wednesday. State Department Spokesman Ian Kelly told reporters the Syrian government was notified of the decision Tuesday evening. "We're prepared to move forward with Syria to advance our interests through direct and continuing dialogue, " Kelly said. "We continue to have concerns about Syria's role in this region, and we think one way to address those concerns is to have an ambassador in Damascus." Kelly said the decision "reflects the administration's recognition of the important role Syria plays in the region." "We hope that they will continue to play such a constructive role to promote peace and stability in the region," Kelly said. Publicly officials say the decision, which was reported by CNN Tuesday, was not in any way related to the election crisis in Iran, although the Obama administration has maintained engaging the Syrian regime could weaken Syria's strategic alliance with Iran. "The timing is interesting," one senior State Department official acknowledged. "It's all part of the chess game." Syrian Ambassador to the United States Imad Moustapha said his country had not formally been notified of the decision, but told CNN if this is true it reflects the genuine desire by the United States of America to correct the past efforts of the Bush administration and engage Syria. It's good for the United States, it's good for Syria and it's good for the region, Moustapha said. Senior administration officials say Obama has not chosen an individual to serve as ambassador. Once he does, the name must go through an informal vetting process with the Syrians before the president's choice is nominated and confirmed. The United States withdrew its ambassador from Syria four years ago in protest at the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. Washington accuses Syria of being behind the killing of the popular statesman in a massive bombing that also left 22 others dead. Syria denies it, but an ongoing United Nations investigation has found indications of Syrian involvement. A charge d'affaires has been the highest-level American diplomat in Damascus since 2005. In anticipation of sending an ambassador back to Syria, Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security Eric Boswell recently traveled to Syria to examine the security situation there. The United States also is interested in building a new embassy in Damascus. The decision comes on the heels of a visit two weeks ago by Mideast peace envoy George Mitchell to Syria, where he said he had "serious and productive discussions" with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad about President Obama's goal of a "comprehensive peace," which includes peace between Israel and Syria, and Israel and Lebanon. "We intend to pursue this as vigorously as possible," Mitchell said. The visit was part of a series of actions between the two sides that could pave the way for dramatically improved ties. Last week U.S. Gen. Ray Odierno, commander of U.S. forces in Iraq, told reporters that "Syria has been taking some action" to stop the flow of foreign fighters into Iraq. Jeffrey Feltman - an assistant secretary of state who is the department's top official on the Middle East - and National Security Council official Daniel Shapiro traveled to Damascus twice in recent months in an effort to improve ties with Syria. The talks, which have been the start of more regular contacts between Washington and Damascus through normal diplomatic channels, focused in part on getting Syria to seal its border with Iraq. Washington has criticized Damascus for turning a blind eye to foreign fighters traveling through Syria into Iraq. Mitchell's recent visit took place on the heels of President Obama's Cairo speech to the Muslim world, where he pledged to pursue a broad-based, comprehensive peace agreement in the region While Mitchell was in the region, Syria also hosted a delegation of U.S. military commanders in Damascus to discuss joint efforts to stem the insurgency in Iraq. "All of theses talks, the quality of the discussion and the level of engagement has been unprecedented, at least for the last eight years," Moustapha said The United States also wants Syrian support in achieving a comprehensive Arab-Israeli peace, and appears willing to nurture indirect peace talks between Syria and Israel, which began last year, over the disputed Golan Heights. Those talks were suspended after Israel's three-week offensive in the Gaza Strip that ended in mid-January. Damascus wants the United States to become involved if the talks resume. And the U.S. is interested in getting Damascus to use its influence with Hamas, which Syria views as a legitimate resistance movement and whose leaders take refuge in Syria.

CNN Poll: Obama ranks low among recent incumbentsPosted byCNN Political Unit Washington (CNN) - President Barack Obama's overall approval rating remains in the mid-40s, where it has been since July, and he continues to receive much higher marks for foreign policy than for domestic issues, according to a new national survey out one year before he is up for re-election. A CNN/ORC International Poll released Tuesday indicates that 52% of all Americans approve of how the president is handling the situation in Iraq, an indication that Americans tend to favor Obama's decision to withdraw all U.S. troops from that country by year's end. Forty-eight percent of those questioned approve of how he is handling the war in Afghanistan. By contrast, only 35% have a positive view of his economic track record, and just 38% approve of how he is handling health care policy. Full results (pdf) It all adds up to an overall 46% approval rating for the president, with 52% saying they disapprove of how Obama is handling his job in the White House. "That's par for the course for Obama, whose overall approval rating has been hovering in the mid 40s in every CNN poll conducted since June," CNN Polling Director Keating Holland said. In comparison to recent incumbents running for re-election, Obama's 46% approval ranks above only Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford - who both lost their re-election bids - in November of the year before an election. Most incumbents who were re-elected had an approval rating above 50% a year before the election. But George W. Bush, at 50%, and Richard Nixon, at 49%, also won re-election, and Bush's father George H.W. Bush had a 56% approval rating yet lost to Bill Clinton the following year. "Translation: while the approval rating is an important indicator of a president's strength, it is not a foolproof predictor of election results," Holland said. See how Obama's number stack up. The poll indicates that the standard partisan divide over the president remains, with three-quarters of Democrats giving Obama a thumbs up but only 15% of Republicans approving of the job he's doing in office. By a 54%-42% margin, independent voters disapprove of how the president's handling his duties. Women are divided on how Obama's performing, but men disapprove by a 55%-43% margin. White Americans give Obama a thumbs down by a 61%-36% margin, with non-white Americans give the president a thumbs up by a more than 2-1 margin. The CNN poll was conducted by ORC International from November 11-13, with 1,036 adult Americans questioned by telephone. The survey's overall sampling error is plus or minus three percentage points. – CNN Deputy Political Director Paul Steinhauser contributed to this report. Newspaper editor defends Cain interview Cain stumbles over Libya Gloria Cain: I never believed allegations were true Filed under: 2012 • CNN/ORC International poll • President Obama • Republicans The results of these polls is misleading at best. My own approval rating of Obama is low, but IMO he's still far better than the alternatives that have been presented so far, so unless something changes drastically I'll vote for him again. November 15, 2011 02:11 pm at 2:11 pm | Pete Numbers, 46 percent is a pretty large number of our populace. Is it a majority? No, but when you look at what was given to him on day one. Just imagine that ditch he described your car being in, the headwinds he had to face, especially after the midterm elections. I implore you all to read outside your idealogical boxes. November 15, 2011 02:12 pm at 2:12 pm | Phil in KC Well, workers do have the right to collective bargaining under the law, so I guess it's a good thing he supports the law. I don't understand how anyone could be against collective bargaining. Oh, wait – yeah – that's so the rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer. So we can eliminate the middle class and become a 2nd world nation. When were we at our greatest as an economic power? When did we enjoy the highest standard of living? When the unions were most powerful. When work practices were fair and even-handed. It is no coincidence that, as unions have gone down-hill, so have working conditions and our economic standing in the world.

November 15, 2011 02:17 pm at 2:17 pm | Doc M Most of us understand who continues to stall the economy and it isn't Obama. The magical thinking by GOP followers is crazy making. They blame Obama for everything under the sun; it's pretty entertaining but getting kind of boring. The GOP needs to take their nutjob candidates and step aside and let people who give a crap about this country move forward. Obama will win a 2nd term.

Your credibility is highly suspect. Everyone except the right wing blogosphere knows that the actual figure is just under $500M, that the program that enabled Solyndra to get the funds was created by Bush, that the Bush administration first selected Solyndra for application to the program, and that the Bush administration had approved Solyndra as participant in the program. The people running Solyndra were life-long Republicans. Stimulus funds were used to pay for, and expand, the program begun under Bush. The companies in the program that failed to meet expectations were those chosen by the Bush administration. November 15, 2011 02:22 pm at 2:22 pm | bb I'm amazed at how many posters here are hoping for failure just to further some sort of us vs. them game they're playing in their heads. Do yourself a favor, people. Base your decisions on hard data, not an a.m. radio daily talking point. You are all too obvious. Too much is at stake to treat our nation like some backwoods football game. Fact is – Obama is NOT the worst president this country has seen by far. Obama did not cause the '08 economic collapse. Obama did not commit our country to 2 unfunded open-ended wars, financed by the Chinese. We did not go into a DEpression because of Obama. In fact, he brought us out of the hardest recession since the Great Depression. He saved the American auto industry, and private sector jobs have been gaining for over 2 years now. Canada is going to sell their oil to China now , Thanks Obama... 20,000 jobs gone. I thought we couldn't wait anymore? Oh thats right were waiting until after the election. November 15, 2011 02:23 pm at 2:23 pm | cony 007 Jack squatt if Obama needs to be thrown in jail for fraud then the Bush Crime Family need to be sent to the HAGUE for war crimes against humanity.

That's right Debbie, don't vote for the guy that came in 1st in the last presidential election and saved the free-world economy from the second [R]-caused depression in the last century. No, instead vote for the guy that came in 10th in the grueling world of pizza corporations, whose biggest draw to you pinheads seems to be that he'd like to try to inflict on us again the same [R] failure that almost led to an economic depression 3 years ago. If you are black, you are the dumbest black I've ever heard of. If I were you, I'd stick to the emotion because at least your heart was once fuller than your skull is now. November 15, 2011 02:34 pm at 2:34 pm | Sam The dem have the majority and didn't care about job. All obama cared about the health bill. Now all he does is play the blame game of everything not being his fault. Obama is all big talk with little results. He never get involve with the debates on bills until the last minute and then take credit for bringing both side together. That what I hate about him. He never gets his hands dirty and have other people do his work for him. The first two years he could of made a difference and he blew it. November 15, 2011 02:39 pm at 2:39 pm | S.B. Stein E.B. NJ Is he agreeing with Scott Walker and removing collective bargining? I don't think that did anything for the budget. Or is he saying that he is willing to be tough with those public employees who are covered by unions? It is baffling as to what Cain believes. I wish it would be clear. November 15, 2011 02:39 pm at 2:39 pm | Jaun in El Paso It is mind blowing that the Republicans are called obstructionists and are berated for blocking Obama agenda. They do the same thing when there is a Republican in the White House!

January 20th, 2013 02:11 AM ET Biden gets ahead of himself at inaugural partyPosted byCNN Political Unit (CNN) – Joe Biden tops a list of Democrats who may be interested in a 2016 presidential bid, but appears to have stepped a bit ahead of himself Saturday. Video posted online by the site Mediaite shows the vice president stumbling over his title at an inauguration party in Washington. "You saw what America came to see. You saw early on, Iowa Democrats saw early on the incredible promise and the incredible capability, the incredible leadership of the guy I now serve with," Biden told supporters at the party, sponsored by the State Society of Iowa. "I'm proud to be president of the United States, but I'm prouder to be Barack ..." he continued, trailing off as laughter erupted in the room. "I am proud," he corrected himself, speaking over the crowd, "to be vice president of the United States." If he was testing the waters for a presidential bid, he found a sympathetic crowd from the state which kicks off the presidential selection process with their caucuses. The video shows him chuckling as he said, "Well, there goes that," and attempted to move on. "Look, on a serious note," he started, as some in his audience continued to laugh. "I guess I'm not going to get back to a serious note, am I?" After a few false starts, the video shows Biden regained his composure. "Think of where we were when Barack was elected president of the United States," he said. Perhaps Biden will find forgiveness from President Barack Obama, who once slipped up and offered Biden the same promotion to the top of the ticket. When he introduced Biden as his running mate in August 2008, Obama called Biden "the next president of the United States," then quickly corrected himself. Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney made the same mistake last year when introducing Rep. Paul Ryan to his ticket. The music played and Ryan walked out waving. Once the applause subsided, Romney stepped back to the microphone to correct the mistake. – CNN's Kevin Bohn and Gregory Wallace contributed to this report Filed under: Inauguration • Vice President Biden Getoverit Lucky for Uncle Joe he's not a Republican. He would have been banished from Planet Earth for a mistake like that. January 20, 2013 02:42 am at 2:42 am | KEVIN2121961 I do the same thing all the time. Everyone can relate to making mistakes but Joe Biden has a consistantly hillarious way of screwing up in front of a camera. Gotta love Uncle Joe. January 20, 2013 03:00 am at 3:00 am | Lizard Lance I can't wait to see how Fox News turns this into a big flare up between Biden and Obama. The people at Fox never let facts get in the way of a good story that's critical of Democrats or that's highly supportive of Republicans. Fair and Balanced? Sure. Only idiots believe that.

Gender Women are barely represented among corporate leadership in the institutional elite and women only contribute roughly 20 percent in the political realm. They do appear more among top positions when it comes to cultural affairs, education, and foundations. Ethnicity White Anglo-Saxons dominate in the power elite, with Protestants representing about 80 percent of the top business leaders and about 73 percent of members of Congress. Education Nearly all the leaders are college-educated with almost half having advanced degrees. About 54 percent of the big-business leaders and 42 percent of the government elite are graduates of just 12 heavily endowed, prestigious universities. Social Clubs Most holders of top position in the power elite possess exclusive membership in one or more social clubs. About a third belong to a small number of especially prestigious clubs in major cities like New York, Chicago, Boston, and D.C.[16] In the 1970s an organized set of policies promoted reduced taxes, especially for the wealthy, and a steady corrosion of the welfare safety net.[17] Starting with legislation in the 1980s, the wealthy banking community successfully lobbied for reduced regulation.[18] The wide range of financial and social capital accessible to the power elite gives their members heavy influence in economic and political decision making, allowing them to move toward attaining desired outcomes. Sociologist Christopher Doob gives a hypothetical alternative stating that these elite individuals would consider themselves the overseers of the national economy, appreciating that it is not only a moral but a practical necessity to focus beyond their group interests. Doing so would hopefully alleviate various destructive conditions affecting large numbers of less affluent citizens.Mills determined that there is an "inner core" of the power elite involving individuals that are able to move from one seat of institutional power to another. They therefore have a wide range of knowledge and interests in many influential organizations, and are, as Mills describes, "professional go-betweens of economic, political, and military affairs."[19] Relentless expansion of capitalism and the globalizing of economic and military power binds leaders of the power elite into complex relationships with nation states that generate global-scale class divisions. Sociologist, Manuel Castells, writes in The Rise of the Network Society that contemporary globalization does not mean that "everything in the global economy is global."[20] So, a global economy becomes characterized by fundamental social inequalities with respect to "the level of integration, competitive potential and share of the benefits from economic growth."[21] Castells cites a kind of "double movement" where on one hand, "valuable segments of territories and people" become "linked in the global networks of value making and wealth appropriation," while, on the other, "everything and everyone" that is not valued by established networks gets "switched off... and ultimately discarded."[21] The wide-ranging effects of global capitalism ultimately affect everyone on the planet as economies around the world come to depend on the functioning of global financial markets, technologies, trade and labor.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EliteBill Maher: America's Syria Policy Makes Us Look Like George Zimmerman September 13, 2013 - For his final New Rule of the night, Bill Maher returned to Syria and this week's 12th anniversary of 9/11. With the country on the verge of bombing another Muslim country, Maher said, "America must stop asking, "Why do they hate us?'" "We're starting to look not so much like the world's policeman, but more like George Zimmerman," he explained. "Itching to use force and then pretending it's because we had no choice." As much as he hates chemical weapons, Maher said, "We have to stop bombing Muslim countries if we ever want to feel safe from terrorism in our own.""How did we inherit this moral obligation to bring justice to the world via death from above?" Maher asked. "It doesn't make any sense. Our schools are crumbling and we want to teach everyone else a lesson."Subtly mocking the entertainment industry's typical peacenik stance, Maher said, "I am no fan of Assad, and I say that openly. I don't care if it costs me jobs in Hollywood." He also made fun of America's tendency to "muse out loud" about who we're going to bomb. "People in other countries don't talk like this. Probably because if they did, we'd bomb them!"He ended his closing rant by remembering the time, just after September 11th, 2001, when he sat down with Howard Stern, who suggested bombing any Muslim country at random. "And I remember thinking to myself, 'Really? Bomb any Muslim country? That's the policy? Just get a map of the Middle East and throw a dart at it?'""Well apparently George W. Bush was listening," he concluded, "because that's exactly what we did."Larry King: Bill Maher On His Movie Religulous Bill Maher on Larry King talking about his new movie Religulous. © Politics is Stupid 2013 | Oingle Web Tools v0.2.16

We Must Build Our Greatest Strength: Diversity By BhattPosted July 5, 2013 11:02 pm By Benjamin Todd Jealous “For a country regarded as the paramount leader in a multicultural world, the United States has yet to embrace its own diversity; continuing failure to do so will have profound consequences for governance.” That quote came from a 1996 report by Allan E. Goodman, former executive dean at the Georgetown School of Foreign Service. For decades, American leaders in business, education and economics have lamented the wide racial and ethnic gaps in our education system. Last week’s Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action reminded us that we have a long way to go. In the case of Fisher v. Texas, the Supreme Court ruled on the constitutionality of the University of Texas’ admissions policy. The university currently allows admissions officers to consider an applicant’s race among a number of other qualifying factors. The Court voted to send the case back to a lower court of appeals. In doing so, they reaffirmed the use of race in admissions, and the importance of educational diversity in the 21st Century. The decision in Fisher upheld an important precedent set in the 2003 case of Gruttinger v. Bollinger. In that case, Justice Sandra Day O’Connor refuted the idea that our society had advanced beyond affirmative action. She argued that the need for “cross-racial understanding” was still necessary to break down racial stereotypes, and that “student body diversity is a compelling state interest.” Justice O’Connor’s argument was based on sound social research. In her words, “major American businesses have made clear that the skills needed in today’s increasingly global marketplace can only be developed through exposure to widely diverse people, cultures, ideas, and viewpoints.” Like Allan Goodman, Justice O’Connor also saw diversity as a national interest. This is even truer today. When Goodman wrote about the multicultural world in 1996, only one out of every 13 Americans had access to the Internet. Google, Twitter and Facebook were still rough ideas scribbled in students’ sketchpads. Seventeen years later, technological advances in communications, travel and trade have given rise to a new era of globalization. Leaders in business and government need to know how to work with people of vastly different races, cultures and perspectives. We will be stronger as a nation if we embrace our growing diversity and ensure that the pathways to leadership remain wide open. Numerous studies reveal that mere interaction is the best way to avoid intergroup conflict. Sociologists have even found that diversity increases opportunities for creativity. In light of the Supreme Court’s decision, America’s educational institutions should recommit to fair and thoughtful ways to foster diversity. In the coming months, the NAACP will work with universities, policymakers, and the business community to see that qualified students from a diversity of backgrounds get a close look and a fair shot at admission to top schools. Justice O’Connor wrote that “effective participation by members of all racial and ethnic groups in the civic life of our Nation is essential if the dream of one Nation, indivisible, is to be realized.” Our country’s pledge is to be one nation, and our country’s challenge is to lead a global economy that is increasingly flat. If America is to maintain its role as a moral and economic leader in the 21st Century, we must build on our greatest strength: diversity. Ben Jealous is president/CEO of the NAACP.

About 30 apply for postal service advisory panelJan 17, 2014 -- 11:10amseMissourian.com About 30 people have submitted applications for the area's new United States Postal Service Advisory Board, and about half that number turned out for an organizational meeting Thursday night at the Cape Girardeau Public Library. The purpose of the advisory board is to give customers access to the postal service and can see how it does things. Members also may bring up concerns and suggestions they hear. Some who attended the 5:30 p.m. meeting were postal employees. Others were there to hear about what was going on, while still more had submitted applications or were curious. Acting Cape Girardeau postmaster JaNan M. O'Brien says applications will be accepted for another two weeks. The first meeting will likely be in February to ensure everyone who wants to—has applied. O’Brien says the council will be permanent, but the members may change.Return to: Local News BlogInteractFacebookTwitter

Scientists can also wear their citizen hats Global Warming isn’t Tomorrow – It is Now “Extreme summer climate anomalies in Texas in 2011, in Moscow in 2010, and in France in 2003 almost certainly would not have occurred in the absence of global warming with its resulting shift of the anomaly distribution. In other words, we can say with high confidence that such extreme anomalies would not have occurred in the absence of global warming.” This quote is from a new scientific paper in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The paper will be freely available online Monday August 6 as article #12-05276: Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., “Perception of climate change”, Hansen, J., Mki. Sato, and R. Ruedy. A draft copy can be downloaded here. I often hear people state that we need to reduce our emissions of heat trapping carbon dioxide for our children and grandchildren’s sake. Unfortunately, human-caused global warming has already caused large increases in extreme heat waves. Global warming-caused extremes are happening now. The figure below shows June-July-August temperature anomalies for three years within the base period 1951-1980 as compared to the temperature anomalies for the previous six years 2006-2011. (Anomalies measure how much warmer or cooler a value is from normal. For example, body T is normally 98.6 degrees. If you had a fever and your body T was 101.6 degrees, your T anomaly would be +3 degrees.) Colors toward the right such as yellow, red, and brown represent above normal temperatures while colors toward the left such as aqua and blue represent below normal temperatures. Global T Anomalies for Jun-Jul-Aug In 1955, 1965, and 1975 the warmer vs. cooler regions were mostly equal which is what one would expect due to natural weather patterns. However, one can quickly see that the most recent years reveal many more locations with well above normal temperatures. Notice the large brown region of very hot T in Europe in 2010 (Russian Heat Wave) and the brown region of very hot T in the US in 2011 (Texas/Oklahoma drought). Extreme hot T is winning out and the pattern does not match that of “normal weather”. The authors then determined just how extreme the past six years were by using a mathematical term called standard deviation denoted by the symbol sigma. A three sigma value means one should expect to see that temperature only 0.1 to 0.2% of the time (1 or 2 times per thousand chances). Standard Deviations (Wiki) The figure below shows that the previous six years had these rare three sigma events covering between 4% and 13% of the world. In the absence of human caused global warming, one would expect the brown areas to cover only 0.1–0.2% of the planet. Global T Expressed as Standard Deviations So what we can expect in the future? If humans keep dumping billions and billions of tons of heat-trapping CO2 into the year each year the extreme heat appearing now will appear mild to what is coming. The two figures below (IPCC, 2007) show what is expected to happen to global air T depending on which carbon emission scenario the world chooses to follow. Unfortunately, we are following the worst-case scenario right now with no sign that we will choose to exit the carbon highway to hell. IPCC Projected T Changes for Various Emission Scenarios According to Synthesis Report from the Climate Change Congress – University of Copenhagen (Richardson et al., 2009): “Recent observations show that societies and ecosystems are highly vulnerable to even modest levels of climate change, with poor nations and communities, ecosystem services and biodiversity particularly at risk. Temperature rises above 2oC will be difficult for contemporary societies to cope with, and are likely to cause major societal and environmental disruptions through the rest of the century and beyond.” Look where we are by the end of the century if we do not take action now to reduce our carbon emissions. The US is covered by values that have blown past the safe level of 2C. A simple way to think about climate change is this: Human body T is very sensitive to even small changes in T. If your body T rises three degrees you know you are very sick and you need to do something. Climate change is no different. The values appearing in the moderate to high growth scenarios are killers. The planet has a fever and we must act to avoid it getting too high. In my blog post It is Easy to Save Money and Our Planet at the Same Time I showed how I was able to reduce my energy bill by more than half. Energy efficiency is something you can do right now to avoid Mother Nature from getting a really high fever and it pays you $$$. Unfortunately, we need to do much more than just being energy efficient. We need to begin shifting away from dirty, expensive fossil fuels such as coal and oil, and begin to add cleaner, cheaper technologies such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal to the grid. I also think we need to have an intelligent, adult conversation about using more nuclear power. Think these are too difficult? Think again. I invite you to watch three excellent videos that show how people around the world, including in the US, are tackling their energy needs by going green and how they are prospering. See Earth: The Operator’s Manual where Dr. Richard Alley explains climate change and energy choices. View Episode #1, Episode #2, and Episode #3. Finally, being an election year, we must decide if addressing climate change is an issue that will determine how we vote. Only through government support will the US be able to shift to clean green technologies thus securing better health, improved national security, economic competitiveness, and energy independence from the Middle East. As a group, the Republican Party of the United States of America does not accept the overwhelming scientific understanding that humans are causing climate change. Make your voice count. Vote this November. Written by Scott Mandia August 5, 2012 at 11:39 am Tagged with climate change, drought, extremes, global warming, heat wave « Hey Joe, Where You Goin’ With That Dumb in Your Head? What do Winston Churchill and Lady Gaga Know that You Don’t? » Great article and truly terrifying. One error, however. This is not a problem caused or exacerbated by the Republican Party alone. The entire Congress (except for a few brave leaders) and The President of the US are all silent on climate change and continue to actively support the fossil fuel industry to the detriment of the alternative energy strategy we need to survive. The President in particular campaigned on a smarter, non-fossil fuel energy future, which he has totally abandoned. Our current administration and congress are corrupted and owned by oil and banking interests as evidenced by the overwhelming actions they take to protect and support these interests. Make your voice REALLY count in November by voting for the Green Party or the Justice Party. Check out their views. Jeffrey Baker (@jsbaker2020) August 6, 2012 at 3:39 pm Reply I agree, mostly. However, at least Obama accepts the scientific reality.I voted for Obama in 2008 but will vote against Romney this time by casting my ballot for Obama. Scott Mandia August 6, 2012 at 4:27 pm Reply I, too voted for Obama and campaigned for him by knocking on doors in a swing state, which Obama won. I respectfully ask you what evidence you see that suggests Obama will do anything differently in the next 4 years compared to his first term? I suggest there is zero difference in energy policy between Romney and Obama. The Democratic party is corrupt. We have to build an alternative political movement if we are to take effective action in response to our scientific understanding of the unfolding catastrophe. Thank you for posting this important report from James Hansen, et.al. Mandia: See this comparison by Rebecca Leber at Climate Progress August 6, 2012 at 10:54 pm Whether we like it or not, there is a 99% chance that we will have either a Republican or a Democratic President after the November elections are over. To vote for any 3rd candidate is to throw away your vote. Secondly, there is an enormous difference between the two candidates. Yes, the Obama record on climate change is nothing to cheer about, but, he has had to deal with Republican obstructionism on a major scale. The U.S. Constitution allows an organized minority to block effective political action unless there is a strong national consensus that can be mobilized. If the Democrats win the Presidency and the Senate, there is hope for building such a consensus. If the Republicans gain the Presidency and the Senate, there will be little to prevent the opening of the floodgates against a surging tide of fossil fuel development that will surely worsen climate change. Mandia: I agree. The Republican Party will not properly address the climate issue and that threatens America’s health, national security, and economic competitiveness while also causing the rest of the world to view Americans with disdain as they did during the Bush years. The house is burning down and we need leaders who, at a minimum, agree there is a problem. Only then can solutions be sought. Although I have voted for third party candidates several times in the past, I cannot do so now. The risk of helping Romney by doing so is far too great.

Ravens’ Bernard Pierce robbed at gunpoint, carjacked Posted by Michael David Smith on June 25, 2013, 7:05 PM EDT APRavens running back Bernard Pierce is described as shaken but not injured after he was robbed at gunpoint and carjacked on Sunday in Philadelphia. CBS 3 in Philadelphia reports that Pierce was robbed and had his BMW stolen. The car has since been recovered, and police have processed it to check for evidence. According to the report, Pierce and a friend were in his car when two men came up in another car. One jumped out with a gun, robbed Pierce and his friend and forced them out of the BMW. The Ravens told CBS 3 in a statement, “We have been in contact with Bernard and we are aware of the situation.” Pierce grew up in the Philadelphia suburbs and played his college football in Philadelphia at Temple. No arrests have been made and no suspects have been identified. 49 Comments Latest Stories in: Baltimore Ravens, Home, Rumor Mill

Frustrations starting to show in un-Steelers-like start Posted by Darin Gantt on September 17, 2013, 6:10 AM EDT Getty ImagesIt’s a good thing they still have the iconic black and yellow uniforms, and all those trophies in the case. Because at the moment, the Steelers don’t look very much like, well, the Steelers. The frustrations are already beginning to build after their 20-10 loss to the Bengals last night and their first 0-2 start since 2002 — meaning neither coach Mike Tomlin nor quarterback Ben Roethlisberger have ever experienced it. “We are a frustrated group right now,” Tomlin said, via Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. “We got work to do. There’s a certain amount of misery that comes with the position we’re in. We’re aware of it.” Part of the problem is, the traditional things they’ve relied on in the past aren’t there anymore. It was just the second time in 13 games they’ve lost at Cincinnati. The Steelers have always been a run/stop-the-run team, and they’re doing neither well at the moment. They had 44 on the ground, but watched the Bengals put up 127. For the second straight game, they produced no turnovers on defense, and the only sack they have this season came last week. That had some players circling the wagons and some worried about the immediacy of their problems. “We still have 14 games left,” wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders said. “There is no need to panic. We’re not in trouble.” “If we don’t shore some things up,” safety Ryan Clark said, “if we don’t play better than we played tonight, we won’t win A game.” The thought of the Steelers being 0-16 seems ridiculous. But so does the thought of them doing the things they’ve always done so well so poorly now.

Parker, Splitter lead short-handed Spurs over Hornets Posted by Michael A. De Leon on Jan 24, 2013 06:58 Before tonight’s game, New Orleans Hornets coach Monty Williams called San Antonio Spurs guard Tony Parker a “one-man wrecking crew” when asked about the Spurs without Tim Duncan and Kawhi Leonard. Parker did his part to live up to Williams’ high praise by finishing the game with 24 points and 13 assists with just one turnover as he led the Spurs back into the game with a wrecking crew-esque 10 fourth quarter points for a 106-102 win over the Hornets. The Hornets started the game on a blistering pace, shooting 83 percent from the field with just minutes remaining in the first quarter. After being down by 10 points late in the quarter, the Hornets cooled down as the Spurs heated up, getting within three points with a Gary Neal three-pointer. After both teams drew iron through the first few minutes of the second, Matt Bonner scored the first five points of the second quarter to even up the game, but Eric Gordon, Al-Farouq Aminu and Jason Smith kept the Spurs within arm’s reach. While Danny Green contributed eight second-quarter points to keep the game close, Gordon rattled off 17 first half points to give the Hornets a four point advantage going into the break. While the Spurs couldn’t quite get over the hump in the first half, they clamped down defensively in the second half. With the help of Tiago Splitter, who contributed 12 of his career high-tying 25 points in the third quarter, the Spurs were able to even up the game and take the lead. “I don’t think our shooting percentage from a distance was that good, so Tiago (Splitter) was making up for it in the paint. He was great,” Spurs assistant coach Mike Budenholzer said. “I think a lot of credit goes to the guards for finding him and putting him in position to score. He was huge for us.” A Greivis Vasquez three gave the Hornets the lead for an instant before Parker led the Spurs back on an 8-0 run. The Spurs had their largest lead of 12 points with 1:42 remaining before the Hornets bounced back and went on an 11-0 run of their own to get within three points before Manu Ginobili sealed it up at the free throw line. While Gordon was five-of-six from the field and a perfect three-for-three from long range for 17 points in the first half, he went scoreless in the second half as the Spurs limited the Hornets 38 second half points after giving up 64 in the first half. “I think Danny (Green) set the tone. Danny did a great job with one-on-one defense on Gordon,” Spurs guard/forward Stephen Jackson said. “We tease him a little bit about last game when we played them because Gordon scored four straight on him so he took the challenge tonight, got two big steals and got us going in the second half”. Parker’s 24 point, 13 assist night counted for his 11th double-double of the season, and over the last four games, Parker is averaging 23 points and 10.3 assists per game. “I think he was focused from the beginning. He knew that we hadn’t played well against them last time,” Budenholzer said. “To have 13 assists and only one turnover shows how focused and how good he was.” While Duncan, Leonard and even Spurs coach Gregg Popovich were out for the game, it marked Manu Ginobili’s return. In 17 minutes, Ginobili finished with nine points, five assists, three steals and a big blocked shot late in the game. “I felt pretty good,” Ginobili said. “At the beginning, I was a little worried so I took it easy in the first few minutes. Then I started to loosen up and I knew I was going to play limited minutes, but I can’t complain.” With the win, the Spurs are now 34-11 on the season, are tied for first place in the Western Conference and extended their home winning streak to 15 games and now own the best home record in the NBA (19-2). The Spurs will look for their seventh consecutive win on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks. About Michael A. De Leon

Search In Arabic in English in D.C. Tara McKelvey December 17, 2006 PinItInstapaperPocketEmailPrint Al Jazeera has been called "the terrorist network," a "beheadings channel," and "a mouthpiece for Osama bin Laden." Yet there was Dave Marash, 64, Al Jazeera's improbable anchor, sitting at his computer in a seventh-floor corner office in its K Street location, surrounded by mementos from his work as an Emmy-award-winning Nightline correspondent -- a William Gaddis novel on a shelf, an Eva Cassidy plaque on a wall, and a Ghanan akuaba'a fertility doll on top of bookshelf. It's a radical career move. Currently neither his old friends from ABC, nor anybody else, can watch him on television in the United States. His new employer, Al Jazeera English, launched its channel on November 15 out of Washington -- but only on the Web. How did his friends react when they heard the news? "The overwhelming majority said, 'That's Marash,'" he says with a grin. Wearing a red tie and wire-rimmed glasses on a recent Friday morning, he enthusiastically described the channel's "absolutely, state-of-the-art" production quality and its "four regional news bases" in Washington, London, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and Doha, Qatar, hometown of its financial backer, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al Thani, the emir of Qatar. The goal, at least according to promotional spots, is "[t]o challenge the mainstream media." In some ways, the station has. Even without airing in the United States, it has gained radical-chic allure. In early December, cameramen from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart filmed a segment in the station's K Street building. Playwright Eve (Vagina Monologues) Ensler, wearing red-framed glasses and sitting in an empty theater, will appear in an upcoming Aljazeera Everywoman, a weekly magazine show. And Benetton and Diesel are described as potential advertisers, according to an April 2006 article in Fast Company. "Right now Al Jazeera is the new frontier," proclaims an advertisement on the channel. Behind the hyperbolic, go-boldly language, though, is a news-gathering organization that is trying to be taken seriously. The channel broadcasts live and worldwide 16 hours a day, focusing heavily on the developing world. According to promotional material, it hopes to provide "accurate, impartial and objective news for a global audience from a grass-roots level" and to become "the channel of reference for Middle East news." The grass-roots part is key. Al Jazeera English offers an ambitious -- perhaps quixotic -- approach to news, placing an emphasis on ordinary people. Marash says his hero is foreign correspondent Ryszard Kapuscinski, a Polish journalist who has spent decades writing about political issues in African and Latin American countries from the perspective of low-level bureaucrats, former servants, and nomads. "CNN doesn't go for the little man," explains Hugh Miles, a Cairo-based journalist and author of a book, Al-Jazeera: How Arab TV News Challenged the World. "It shows Minister A meeting Minister B and talking about an important issue. Al Jazeera produces shows about an ambulance driver in Gaza and a gold miner in the Congo." *** But is the channel's perspective new or skewed? Probably both. It is too early to judge how accurate its news coverage will be over a sustained period, yet there are clues. In many ways, its newsroom would seem familiar to any Western journalist. The staff of about 140 was hired away from CNN, NBC, CBS, and other U.S. stations, including someone from fox News Channel, according to Washington bureau chief Will Stebbins, himself a former Associated Press Television News executive. Their workspace is bustling and chaotic. Old copies of BusinessWeek and The Wall Street Journal were piled on a table the Friday afternoon that I visited, and the yellow-and-black carpet was partly held together with masking tape. The back of the room was heavy with the scent of bagels, and a producer-type, a man in sideburns and frayed jeans with Dinosaur Jr. wallpaper on his desktop, was shouting into his telephone, "You are a visionary!" The channel's editorial product offers professionally packaged news from experienced journalists. There are 24 anchors working in the four regional bureaus. In addition, some CNN regulars appear on Al Jazeera English; Mike Wallace, Wesley Clark, and Jimmy Carter have all been interviewed or are scheduled to appear on the channel. Some of the programming is Headline News in style, though more international and slightly longer in form, from Laos, Somalia, Gaza, and Mexico City. Other stories cover local businesses, such as Jihad Construction, which is helping to rebuild Lebanon, and regional conflicts ("exclusive footage of a shootout" in Kinshasa, Congo, was touted recently). Of course, Al Jazeera shows its distinctive character as well. When there's fashion, it's about the hijab (featuring Yasmin Safri, "catwalk designer of Islamic fashionwear"). Among the early investigative airings are "Triangle of Anger," a journalist-produced documentary about extraordinary rendition, and "Prisoner 345," another documentary, about an Al Jazeera cameraman, Sami al-Hajj, who was arrested on the Afghan-Pakistani border in December 2001 and later imprisoned at Guantanamo Bay. One recent news segment depicts the lives of Iraqi children, who play with a battery-operated toy vehicle in the street -- and watch it collapse in flames after the explosion of a miniature explosive in the front hood. The key question, of course, is editorial control. Al Jazeera executives and newscasters say they work independently of Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al Thani and separate from their Arabic-language counterpart. "Not only is Al Jazeera English editorially independent of Al Jazeera Arabic -- although they each share the same guiding spirit -- but each of the four broadcast centers of Al Jazeera English retains editorial independence over its own content, allowing each center to present the news as seen from its particular position in the world," explained Stebbins. It's true that under Sheikh Hamad, the press censorship law in Qatar has been eased. "The Doha-based al-Jazeera satellite channel is acknowledged as the freest television station in the Middle East," according to a December 1 country briefing from the Economist Intelligence Unit. Still, it's hard to believe Al Jazeera English is as clean as its executives claim. Sheikh Hamad is openly critical of the West, sharply attacking it "for boycotting the Hamas government," and adding "that Palestinians are being punished for practicing democracy." But the extent of his influence is elusive. As Brendan Bernhard wrote in a November New York Sun article, "It would take a George Smiley to figure out what the Emir of Qatar's game is, but it's surely a double, triple, or even quadruple one." Yet Al Jazeera English doesn't seem to show obvious bias: The United States and Israel are treated like any other country in the news segments and are not referred to as evil empires -- despite what the channel's detractors may think. There is, not surprisingly, a significant amount of coverage devoted to Iraq, in stories that don't seem to show any more sympathy for the Sunni or the Shia perspective. Instead, they show compassion for the "Iraqi people." Most of the anchoring is done in Doha. Between news segments about malaria in Ethiopia, a new prison wing at Guantanamo Bay, and the Iraq Study Group, you are invariably taken back to the Doha mother ship -- an enormous, two-story, Matrix-fantasy newsroom with rows of desktops bathed in shades of rich, cornflower blue. Among the Al Jazeera English 24 newscasters, 12 are stationed in Doha, according to the company, and the ratio of news coverage among the four regional centers shows Doha clearly in the lead. Even the most casual viewer gets the message: Doha is the center of the world. Critics, including the Bush administration, have claimed that Al Jazeera has ties to terrorists, but Al Jazeera English staff say that is simply wrong. "Al Jazeera has a functioning relationship with al-Qaeda and insurgent groups in Iraq. But it doesn't mean they have any ideological sympathy for these political groups," says writer Miles. "The Pentagon and the State Department have invested a lot of resources trying to show Al Jazeera is a terrorist channel, or funded by terrorists, but they haven't been able to do it for the simple reason it's not." To date, no U.S. satellite or cable company has picked the channel up. Al Jazeera English spokeswoman Lindsey Oliver explained that "it is hard for any new broadcast organization to get carriage, particularly on satellite and cable, because of the limited space they offer for new programming." Still, it's not easy being associated with the network that features personalities like Yusuf Al-Qaradawi, an Islamic leader who has supported suicide bombings, and others who express strong anti-U.S. sentiments. "Cable carriers are afraid of the P.R. hit they will take for being the first media conglomerate to pick up on what most Americans believe is a terrorist wire service," says Matthew T. Felling, media director of the Washington-based Center for Media and Public Affairs, a nonpartisan organization that studies the news media. People in other countries have given a warmer reception to Al Jazeera English. More than 80 million households, in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and other countries around the world, can tune into the channel on television. British Prime Minister Tony Blair appeared on one of its programs on November 20, five days after its launch. Perhaps not surprisingly, there hasn't been any response from the White House. "No flowers," says the program's Washington bureau chief Stebbins. "Must be stuck in the mail."

Enter John Thune. Jamelle Bouie September 27, 2010 PinItInstapaperPocketEmailPrint By way of Mike Allen's Playbook is Stephen Hayes' Weekly Standard piece on South Dakota Sen. John Thune. According to Hayes, Thune -- touted previously by David Brooks -- has all but committed to a run for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012: Several people close to the senator say they would be surprised if he chose not to run, and Thune allows that he’s thinking about it seriously enough that he’s gamed out his “pathway to get there,” calculated the amount of money it would take to be competitive in early primaries, and even thought about the timing of an announcement. He thinks his family would be on board. “I’m taking a very full look at it,” he says. And why not. The Republican field is wide open. And Obama is vulnerable. [Emphasis mine] Not to tout this book too much, but Republicans thought the same thing in 1995, when President Clinton seemed weak and vulnerable after Democrats' historic losses in the 1994 midterm elections. Here's Taylor Branch on how Republicans viewed the party nomination contest in 1995: His [Clinton's] opponents were multiplying for obvious reasons. Each one saw the GOP nomination as tantamount to election. "They all think they can beat me," he said. "They have weakened me with health care and the midterms, so they'll just finish me off in 1996." By that point in 1995, Phil Gramm, Lamar Alexander, Richard Lugar, and Pete Wilson (the former governor of California) had announced their presidential campaigns. Obviously, none succeeded, and in retrospect, they weren't the strongest candidates, outward appearances notwithstanding. I don't know enough about John Thune to judge his quality as a presidential nominee, but it's worth noting that similar political circumstances led a host of politicians to greatly underestimate President Clinton's political health. John Thune might be the next president of the United States, but he might also join a long list of men who thought they had it and were sorely disappointed by reality. -- Jamelle Bouie Jamelle Bouie is a staff writer at The American Prospect.

Simple Steps for Managing Stress in Your Life By Steve Bressert, Ph.D. Pages: 1 2All Learning to manage stress successfully begins with our willingness to take an honest look at ourselves. Although people and situations do contribute to stress, the events that affect people from the outside are beyond their control. It is too easy to blame stress on other people or situations that the individuals cannot control. It is more productive to take personal responsibility for the stress that an individual experiences and to look for things that he or she can change. It is more effective to learn to “manage” stress than to simply “reduce” stress. One can reduce stress, briefly, by taking a vacation or just by pulling the covers back over his or her head in the morning. However, the vacation will not last forever, and eventually one will need to return to face all of the things that he or she wanted to escape. Instead of hoping that the stress will disappear, one can remember that stress will always be a part of life. Success and happiness will depend on how well one can cope with, or manage, the stress. Managing stress requires individuals to take responsibility for their own thoughts, feelings and behaviors. When people look at their stress this way, they may find that they need not to be so afraid. Taking an active role in managing stress means that people need to begin actively searching for it. Stressful events can be viewed as obstacles or as opportunities to learn how to manage them better. Identifying stressful situations is actually good news; individuals have taken the first step in managing their stress. They did not create stress by looking for it; they only found what was already there. When people find what causes their stress and begin to understand why it is stressful, they can work to manage the stress more successfully. Commitment To Change Once people have identified the stress in their lives, they need to commit themselves to creating change. It takes time and energy to make change happen. For many people, the most difficult part of learning to manage stress is finding the time. It may seem that time pressure is one of the main causes of stress; there is just not enough time to accomplish what life demands. When people feel overwhelmed, it is difficult to begin. How can they find the additional time necessary to learn to manage stress? This attitude misses the point. Many people spend more time, energy and money on their cars than they do on themselves. They are more likely to take the time to change the oil in the car than to take a few minutes to stop and give themselves a break. But just like a car, if people do not take care of themselves, they will not function as well and will eventually break down. Taking the time to manage stress is good preventative maintenance for life. The time that it takes is more than repaid in increased efficiency and happiness. Stress Management Techniques Many techniques can help to manage stress. No one technique is best for everybody. Each person must decide what will work best for him or her. It is not helpful to recommend exercise for someone who hates physical activity, and it is difficult for someone to meditate if they hate to sit still. All stress management techniques are simply tools. These tools can help someone learn to work more skillfully with stress and to have new and more effective ways to deal with difficult situations. They must, however, be actively applied. Even though someone has learned to use a hammer, he or she still needs to get the hammer out of the toolbox every time he or she needs to drive a nail. Likewise, just because someone has learned stress management techniques, he or she still needs to take them out of the stress management toolbox and put them to work. No technique will make all stress go away. It is best when people use their own judgment and intuition to decide which techniques to use. People should not be afraid to try different things before deciding what is best for them. Once they have found some strategies that work, they need to commit to practicing them. Exercise Exercise is one of the best ways to manage stress. Aerobic exercise, exercise that makes the heart and lungs work harder, actually helps the body to use up excess stress-induced hormones. Regular exercise helps the body to react less dramatically to stress. Some research suggests that exercise also helps to lift one’s spirits and decrease depression. Exercise is most helpful if it is practiced consistently over a long period of time. In beginning an exercise program, it is important to start slowly. It is not so helpful to start an exercise program with a lot of enthusiasm and then stop exercising in a week or two because it is too stressful. Of course, it is recommended that people check with their regular physicians before beginning any exercise program; however, almost no one is too old or too out of shape to begin to exercise. Twenty or 30 minutes of exercise four or five times a week is ideal, but even much less can help individuals to relax and cope with stressful situations more effectively. The specific type of exercise or the amount of time spent exercising is not as important as whether or not someone can make exercise a regular part of his or her life. Brisk walking is the perfect exercise for many people. Jogging, swimming and bicycling are other popular types of aerobic exercises. It makes sense to choose an exercise that is enjoyable; the more enjoyable it is, the more likely an exercise program will succeed. Meditation Meditation is a very effective stress management technique. Meditation sounds exotic, but it is really just a way to learn to relax and settle the mind. A relaxed, settled mind is less anxious and copes better with stress. One type of widely-used meditation is called “mindfulness meditation.” It teaches the meditator to rest his or her mind steadily in the present moment even during stressful experiences. This creates a deep sense of relaxation and mental clarity. Anxious fears about the past or the future become less troubling. Other popular types of meditation used for stress management include transcendental meditation and the relaxation response. A recent report to the National Institutes of Health concluded that, “More than 30 years of research, as well as the experiences of a large and growing number of individuals and healthcare providers, suggest that meditation and similar forms of relaxation can lead to better health, higher quality of life and lowered healthcare costs.” The report went on to say, “Most important, meditation techniques offer the potential of learning how to live in an increasingly complex and stressful society while helping to preserve health in the process.” Other Stress Management Tools Yoga is another popular stress-management tool. It combines aspects of both exercise and meditation; it can help people to slow down their minds and create relaxation in their body. Psychotherapy also can be very effective in reducing stress. Aspects of one form of psychotherapy, called cognitive therapy, have been incorporated into many stress-management programs. Other effective and widely-used stress-management techniques include progressive muscle relaxation, massage and biofeedback. It is also important to remember that when severe stress begins to cause depression, or affects someone’s ability to function at home or at work, medication prescribed by a doctor can be very helpful. Deciding on a Stress Management Technique No single strategy is right for everyone. Each person must take an honest look at him or herself and decide what makes the most sense. The most important factor in determining the success of a stress management program is not the type of technique that is used, but rather the commitment that each person makes to change. It is difficult for people to change long-standing habits even when those habits create discomfort, unhappiness and stress. Change is possible, however, and the most difficult changes often provide the greatest benefit. Working to reduce stress can enhance happiness and health for many years. It does make a difference!

Relationships and Sexuality News » Allergic to Your Husband? Allergic to Your Husband? By Rick Nauert PhD Reviewed by John M. Grohol, Psy.D. on November 14, 2006 Women can be allergic to semen and other substances in the seminal fluid of their partner, according to information presented at an annual meeting of medical professionals. Symptoms could include vaginal itching, burning and other symptoms after intercourse. Paradoxically, for some, having more frequent sex can be part of the treatment. Highlights of gender-related research presented at the annual meeting of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) include: • Although it is not known how many women may be allergic to their partner’s semen, immunotherapy treatments may overcome the problem, provided the couple continues to have sexual intercourse regularly. • In some cases, substances such as certain medications and foods, may cause allergic reactions when transmitted through seminal fluid. • Women with asthma display a different pattern of disease than their male counterparts, and they may be particularly susceptible during puberty, menstruation and menopause. In adulthood, women are twice as likely as men to have asthma, and they are 42 percent more likely to die of the disease. • Laboratory experiments suggest that estrogen may play a positive role in preventing or controlling lung diseases, such as acute respiratory disease syndrome (ARDS) and asthma. “We are learning that there are significant differences between men and women when it comes to asthma and the other allergic diseases,” said Nancy K. Ostrom, M.D., Allergy and Asthma Medical Group and Research Center, San Diego, Calif., and moderator of the plenary session. “We as professionals must pay particular attention to gender differences in order to improve diagnosis and treatment of asthma and the other allergic diseases.” Women and Semen Allergy While the prevalence of semen allergy is not known, the condition does exist and should be considered as a possible diagnosis for women who report symptoms that occur shortly after intercourse. Symptoms may include itching, burning and swelling in the genital area. In the most severe cases, hives or swelling may appear elsewhere on the body and the woman may experience difficulty breathing. “Typically symptoms occur within 30 minutes of intercourse, but in rare cases it may be hours or even days later,” said David J. Resnick, M.D., acting director, division of allergy, the New York Presbyterian Hospital, New York City. Semen allergy is particularly suspected if symptoms go away with condom use or abstinence, he said. In one study of 1,073 women who sought information from a researcher on semen allergy concerning their vaginal symptoms, 130, or approximately 13 percent, were determined to have semen allergy, according to Dr. Resnick. “Although reports of the condition in the scientific literature are relatively rare, there may be women with semen allergy who go undiagnosed because their symptoms are mild or they routinely use condoms,” he said. There also are cases of women who have had allergic reactions to allergens transmitted through the seminal fluid, including the medications vinblastine, penicillin and thioridazine and some food and beverages, including walnuts and Coca-Cola. Treatment for Semen Allergy Patients with semen allergy should be provided with a self-injectable epinephrine kit in the event of a severe reaction. Epinephrine (adrenaline) is the first-line treatment for severe allergic reactions. In addition, there are two immunotherapy options, a technique designed to desensitize the immune system to a particular allergen: • Intravaginal Seminal Graded Challenge (ISGC). In this technique, semen samples are placed into the vagina every 20 minutes, beginning with highly diluted samples and gradually increasing the concentration. The technique, which is performed over a few hours, must be followed by frequent sexual contact (two to three times per week) to maintain the woman’s desensitization to semen. “Treatment failure is associated with couples who do not engage in frequent intercourse that re-exposes the patient to the allergen,” Dr. Resnick said. “Patients not living near their partners can refrigerate or freeze specimens so they can continue frequent exposure.” • When ISGC is unsuccessful, allergy shots have been used in some cases. This procedure involves injecting a small amount of semen under the skin at regular intervals over the course of several weeks, in a manner similar to the allergy shots used to treat allergic rhinitis and asthma. As with ISGC, patients must continue unprotected intercourse two to three times per week to maintain immunity. All immunotherapy treatments should be performed in a facility equipped to treat a patient who may experience anaphylactic shock – a severe, system-wide reaction to the allergen that can be deadly. According to Dr. Resnick, approximately 50 percent of women with semen allergy have other allergic diseases, such as skin allergy and allergic rhinitis (so-called “hay fever”). Most women are between age 20 and 30, and 41 percent experience symptoms with their first sexual intercourse. “In most cases, symptoms gradually worsen and occur sooner with subsequent exposures,” he said. Semen allergy is not a direct cause of infertility, according to Dr. Resnick. Women may conceive after successfully undergoing immunotherapy, or may consider artificial insemination with “washed” sperm. In vitro fertilization also is an option. In some women, the reaction occurs with one partner while others are allergic to all partners, he said. There are also reported cases where women have “outgrown” the allergy without treatment. Women and Asthma In another study, researchers reported significant gender differences in the prevalence of asthma that may be related to fluctuations in sex hormones: • Before puberty, boys are twice as likely to have asthma as girls. • By the mid- to late-teen years, females are as likely, or more likely, than males to have asthma. In adulthood, women are twice as likely to have the disease. • Women are hospitalized and use other medical services more often than men. “One possible explanation may be differences in sex hormones, although our study did not specifically look at this connection,” said D.W. Cockcroft, M.D., professor, department of medicine, University of Saskatchewan/Royal University Hospital, Canada. “The theory is bolstered by data that suggest asthma worsens during puberty, menstruation and menopause in women,” he said. In addition to fluctuations in sex hormones, reasons for differences in the incidence of asthma in women and its severity may include obesity, depression, failure to take medications as prescribed and smoking, according to a review published earlier this year in the Annals of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology. “Successful asthma management requires an ongoing partnership between the patient and her physician, adherence to national guideline recommendations for treating asthma, patient education and action plans,” Dr. Ostrom, author of the study, said. “It is particularly important that asthma be managed aggressively in pregnant women because, when uncontrolled, it can lead to birth complications.” According to Dr. Ostrom, approximately one-third of women experience improvement in asthma symptoms during pregnancy, one-third have worsening symptoms and one-third experience no change. Women also are more likely to die of the disease. In 2001, 65 percent of the more than 4,200 asthma-related deaths in the U.S. occurred in women, and African-American women were at highest risk. The risk may be greatest during premenstrual and menstrual periods, she said. Estrogen May Protect Against Lung Disease, Asthma Despite recent publicity on the potential adverse effects of estrogen therapy, it may play a positive role in protecting women against asthma and acute lung diseases such as ARDS. In laboratory studies, rats that were given lung-injuring agents were less likely to suffer injury or had milder symptoms when estrogen supplements were administered at the same time, according to Sami I. Said, M.D., professor of medicine, division of pulmonary and critical care, State University of New York, Stony Brook. “Since these are animal studies, we must be careful not to assume that similar effects will be seen in humans,” Dr. Said said. “Nonetheless, most breakthroughs in medical science begin with animal research and the association between estrogen and protection of the lung definitely merits further research.” Source: American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) Nauert, R.

13.7: Cosmos And Culture Elegance Trumps Ethics In A Scientific Scandal Share Tweet E-mail Print By Tania Lombrozo iStockphoto.com In a compelling New York Times piece published last Friday, writer Yudhijit Bhattacharjee discusses the rise and fall of Diederik Stapel, a Dutch social psychologist who committed fraud in 55, or more, of his scientific papers. While I have very little sympathy for Stapel, I was surprised to recognize the impulse behind his fabrication. Here's how the article explained it: Stapel did not deny that his deceit was driven by ambition. But it was more complicated than that, he told me. He insisted that he loved social psychology but had been frustrated by the messiness of experimental data, which rarely led to clear conclusions. His lifelong obsession with elegance and order, he said, led him to concoct sexy results that journals found attractive. "It was a quest for aesthetics, for beauty — instead of the truth," he said. Stapel's summary of feedback from journal editors: "They are actually telling you: 'Leave out this stuff. Make it simpler.'" He excelled at providing people with what they craved: "structure, simplicity, a beautiful story." Much of my own research focuses on how people generate and evaluate explanations. Stapel is right: people do crave explanations that are simple, broad, elegant. We want our explanations to be beautiful. In my own research I've found that people will often opt for the simpler explanation, even when they have more evidence for a complex one (see here and here for blog posts; here and here for journal articles). Einstein purportedly told the philosopher Hans Reichenbach that he'd known the theory of relativity must be true because it was so beautiful, even before the solar eclipse of 1918 provided the pivotal evidence. But he also said that "everything must be made as simple as possible. But not simpler." Science can sometimes startle us with discoveries of beauty and elegance beyond what we'd ever imagined. But it can also disappoint us. Sometimes the story simply isn't simple. T.H. Huxley wrote that the great tragedy of science is "the slaying of a beautiful hypothesis by an ugly fact." In many cases, seeing favored hypotheses flounder spurs scientists on to gather more data, rework theories and wrestle with previous interpretations of their findings. This can be a good thing; an engine for progress. So it's disappointing to learn that the impulse toward beautiful explanations also has a dark side — introducing a rare (I hope) but genuine threat to scientific integrity.You can keep up with more of what Tania Lombrozo is thinking on Twitter: @TaniaLombrozoCopyright 2013 NPR.

For Israel And Egypt, A Relationship Under Strain Share Tweet E-mail Print By editor Originally published on Sun May 6, 2012 8:04 am Listen A mural in Cairo depicts the split faces of Egyptian military ruler Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi, left, and ousted president Hosni Mubarak accompanied by Arabic that reads, "who assigned you did not die, No for gas export to Israel, the revolution continues." Nasser Nasser Ever since Egypt's revolution last year, many Israelis have wondered what it might mean for the peace treaty that the two countries signed in 1979 – the first such agreement between Israel and an Arab state. Israel's embassy in Egypt was attacked last September and badly damaged. Islamist parties sharply critical of Israel have proved popular, including the Muslim Brotherhood, which won Egypt's parliamentary elections. And this week, Egypt's state oil company announced it was terminating a contract to supply natural gas to Israel. That ended a joint venture that was considered one of the major benefits to flow out of the peace treaty. All these developments have contributed to the Israeli concerns about what relations will be like in the coming years, and whether the peace with Egypt can be maintained. In the Egyptian coastal city of Al-Arish in the northern Siani desert, local residents filmed last month's pipeline explosion, which sent flames leaping into the sky. The 750-mile long pipeline has been the target of terrorist bombings more than a dozen times in the last year alone. A Major Source For Israel Israel has relied on Egypt for 40 percent of its natural gas needs. But the frequent disruptions have taken their toll on the Israeli economy. Still, many Israelis say they were surprised when the Egyptian partner in the joint venture that operated the pipeline announced it was terminating the contract. "It's completely political. If there are some problems between the partners they should try to solve it by dialogue. But they have not done it. The Egyptians just announced in a kind of surprise to us that they are nullifying the agreement," says Zvi Mazel, Israel's former ambassador to Egypt. Mazel first went to Cairo as a diplomat in 1980, just one year after Israel and Eygpt signed a peace deal. He returned in 1996, and served as Israel's ambassador until 2001 - a period of time in which he worked on the negotiations that led to the gas deal. "I have here the agreement, signed between the government of Egypt and Israel that backed the guarantee to Israel that gas will continue to stream to flow to Israel at any cost," he says. The deal was inked in 2005, and meant to last for at least 15 years. Mazel reads several of the articles in the contract, pointing out that many of them reference the peace deal struck between the two countries. "The government of Egypt just repudiated its own guarantee agreement to Israel," he says. A Business Dispute — With Political Overtones Government spokespersons in both countries are trying to play down the issue as a dispute between two companies that does not threaten the peace treaty. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a statement saying that the terminated gas deal had nothing to do with political developments, and stressed that ties between Egypt and Israel remain strong. Egyptian officials have issued similar statements. Egypt's Minister of International Cooperation, Fayza Abul Naga has suggested that the deal could be revived if Israel agreed to pay a higher price for the gas. It's a sensitive issue for Egypt where many believe that the former president, Hosni Mubarak, gave Israel favorable rates to curry favor with the Jewish state. Israeli officials have not yet said whether they will pursue another deal with Egypt. Mazel says Israel can always find gas elsewhere. But the peace deal, he says, is a bigger issue. "It seems like a bad omen for the future," he says. "It's after all the problems that we had between us and Egypt, after the ouster of Mubarak, now we see the first cancellation of a treaty." In Tel Aviv, the Roni Ful restaurant has become famous for serving traditional Egyptian fare, with modern Israeli accompaniments. The owner, Mor Haim Aharon, says many of his regular customers are Egyptian-born Jews who immigrated to Israel. He says they are not troubled by the recent dispute over the gas deal. "This is not a political move," he says. "I think that our leaders know how to handle things with the Egyptian government. I don't think we are so worried about the gas deal." Aharon says that as former Egyptians, they know that political tensions come and go, but that the peace deal is important to the stability of both countries.Copyright 2012 National Public Radio.

There are new fears that the once stable relationship between Israel and Egypt is beginning to fracture. This past week, Egypt's state oil company announced that it was terminating a contract to supply natural gas to Israel. That ended a joint venture that was considered a major benefit of the 33-year-old peace treaty between the two countries. Many in Israel are now beginning to wonder if the peace with Egypt can be maintained, as Sheera Frenkel reports. (SOUNDBITE OF GAS ESCAPING) SHEERA FRENKEL, BYLINE: The low roar of the flames escaping from the gas pipeline can barely be heard across the northern Sinai Desert, but the flames leap far into the night sky. Locals filmed last month's explosion outside the coastal city of Al-Arish. The 750-mile-long pipeline has been the target of terrorist bombings more than a dozen times in the last year alone. Israel has relied on Egypt for 40 percent of its natural gas needs, and the frequent disruptions have taken their toll on the Israeli economy. Still, many here say they were surprised when the Egyptian partner in the joint venture that operated the pipeline announced it was terminating the contract. ZVI MAZEL: It's completely political, because if there are some problems between the partners they should try to solve it by dialogue. But they have not done it. The Egyptians just announced in a kind of surprise to us that they are nullifying the agreement. FRENKEL: That's Zvi Mazel, Israel's former ambassador to Egypt. He first went to Cairo as a diplomat in 1980, just one year after Israel and Egypt signed a peace deal. He returned in 1996 and served as Israel's ambassador until 2001 - a period of time in which he worked on the negotiations that led to the gas deal. MAZEL: Listen, I have here the agreement, signed between the government of Egypt and Israel that backed the guarantee to Israel - gas will continue to stream, to flow to Israel at any cost. FRENKEL: The deal was inked in 2005 and meant to last for a period of at least 15 years. MAZEL: The government of Egypt repudiated its own guarantee agreement to Israel. FRENKEL: Government spokespersons in both countries are trying to downplay the issue as a dispute between two companies that does not threaten the peace treaty. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a statement saying that the terminated gas deal had nothing to do with political developments, and stressed that ties between Egypt and Israel remain strong.

It's after all the problems that we had between us and Egypt, after the ouster of Mubarak, now we see the first cancellation of a treaty.

The owner, Mor Haim Aharon, says many of his regular customers are Egyptian-born Jews who immigrated to Israel. He says they aren't fazed by the recent furor over the gas deal. MOR HAIM AHARON: (Through Translator) This is not a political move. I think that our leaders know how to handle things with the Egyptian government. I don't think we are so worried about the gas deal. FRENKEL: Aharon says that as former Egyptians, they know that political tension comes and goes, but that the peace deal is important to the stability of both countries.

In Push For 'Common' Standards, Many Parents Left Uneducated Share Tweet E-mail Print By Claudio Sanchez Originally published on Mon September 23, 2013 1:51 pm Listen The Common Core Standards establish academic expectations across states in math and English language arts. Forty-five states have adopted the Common Core State Standards, the first-ever national academic standards for students. But opposition is growing, and some lawmakers are having second thoughts about their states' support. Meanwhile, proponents of the standards are still struggling to explain the initiative to parents, many of whom say they've never even heard of Common Core. Looking For Direction Cynthia Clay has been a teacher and administrator in Middletown, Del., for 31 years. "I have seen it all, because we have had things come and go in education," she says. But nothing, she says, has a greater potential to transform public education than the Common Core Standards. She says teachers at her school, Silver Lake Elementary, have embraced them. "In fact, some of our veteran teachers have said, '[Common Core] has given me more direction than what we've had in the past,' " Clay says. Two years after Delaware aligned its state tests to the Common Core, Clay says her students are doing just fine. "They are meeting the standards — that's what we're seeing," she says. "And in our state assessments, we're seeing that happen as well." Raising the bar for all children, regardless of where they live, and then comparing their progress based on the same high standards, makes sense, says Lilian Miles of the Appoquinimink County Schools, which includes Middletown. "I can't tell you how often parents get frustrated when they find out that the Pennsylvania state test has nothing to do with New Jersey, has nothing to do with Delaware. There's no common comparison," she says. The Common Core will change that, according to Delaware Gov. Jack Markell. What The Standards Are, And Are Not Markell has been delivering that message over the last few weeks at town hall meetings and back-to-school nights. Although at a Silver Lake Elementary gathering, Markell spent more time than he would have liked explaining what the Common Core Standards are not. "This was not something that was driven by the federal government. I know some people are saying this was a federally driven initiative. This has nothing to do with the federal government," he said. Markell says it was states and governors, frustrated by the meager improvement of their schools, that launched the Common Core Standards. Shortly after taking office in 2008, Markell, a Democrat, and then-Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue, a Republican, co-chaired a committee to promote the new standards and convince other governors to adopt them. "The easy part was getting states to sign on," Markell says. He says governors only had to look at how poorly their students were doing compared to kids in other industrialized nations. Perdue agrees: States had to do something. "We had become complacent and the goal was to expect more, to have higher standards. In Georgia, we had hearings, and from the State Board Of Education, they had to be adopted there," Perdue says. In Georgia, though, conservative groups and Republican lawmakers — wary of the federal government's support for new standards and tests — now want the state to pull out. Parents' Understanding But the arguments for and against the new standards have had little impact on public opinion because, according to a Gallup survey of public schools, 62 percent of Americans have never heard of the Common Core. At a coffee shop in Middletown, the views among a group of young mothers were mixed. Two said they didn't know enough to comment. Only Megan Parker said she likes what she's heard. "My understanding of the Common Core is that if my third-grader were to leave Delaware and go to, say, Ohio, he would not have to test to transfer into the third-grade level there. The Common Core would be universal for all students," she says. Her friend, Beth Hess, has heard both good and bad things about the Common Core. "I can see how conservatives would say it's just another way for the government to take control, it's one more rule, it's one more law, and that we're losing our freedoms," she says. "But I don't think it's meant to be that way. I think there is a good motive behind it: having our children all meet a specific standard at a certain age." With the debate now shifting to the alignment of high-stakes tests to the Common Core Standards, people on both sides of the issue agree that the battle for the hearts and minds of parents will be crucial.Copyright 2013 NPR.

We've been hearing a lot about the pros and cons of the first-ever national academic standards for students, also known as the Common Core Standards. Forty-five states have adopted the Common Core Standard, which is intended to align what public school students are learning at each grade level. But opposition is growing. Already, lawmakers in some states are having second thoughts. But as NPR's Claudio Sanchez reports, in some states, politicians and educators are defending the new standards more vigorously than ever. CLAUDIO SANCHEZ, BYLINE: Cynthia Clay has been a teacher and administrator in Middletown, Del., for 31 years. CYNTHIA CLAY: I have seen it all because we have had things come and go in education. SANCHEZ: But nothing, says Clay, has a greater potential to transform public education than the Common Core Standards. She says teachers at her school, Silver Lake Elementary, have embraced them. CLAY: In fact, some of our veteran teachers have said, this has given me more direction than what we've had in the past. SANCHEZ: Two years after Delaware aligned its state tests to the Common Core, Clay says her students are doing just fine. CLAY: They are meeting the standards; that's what we're seeing. And in our state assessments, we're seeing that happen as well. SANCHEZ: Raising the bar for all children regardless of where they live, and comparing the progress based on the same high standards, makes sense, says Lillian Miles. She's with the Appoquinimink County Schools, which includes Middletown. LILLIAN MILES: I can't tell you how often parents get frustrated when they find out that the Pennsylvania state test has nothing to do with New Jersey, has nothing to do with Delaware. There's no common comparison. SANCHEZ: The Common Core will change that. That's the message that Delaware's governor, Jack Markell, has been delivering the last few weeks at town hall meetings and back-to-school nights - although at Silver Lake Elementary tonight, Markell is spending more time than he'd like explaining what the Common Core Standards are not. GOV. JACK MARKELL: This was not something that was driven by the federal government. I know some people are saying this was a federally driven initiative. This has nothing to do with the federal government. SANCHEZ: Markell says it was the states and governors, frustrated by the meager improvement of their schools, that launched the Common Core Standards. Shortly after taking office in 2008, Markell, a Democrat, and then-Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue, a Republican, co-chaired a committee to promote the new standards and convince other governors to adopt them. MARKELL: The easy part was getting states to sign on.

SANCHEZ: With the debate now shifting to the alignment of high-stake tests to the Common Core Standards, people on both sides of the issue agree that the battle for the hearts and minds of parents will be crucial. But of the 45 states that have adopted the new standards in the last four years, not one has pulled out entirely. Claudio Sanchez, NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Harlan-Lincoln House (2000), Iowa Wesleyan College Institution Name: Iowa Wesleyan College Original/Historic Place Name: Harlan House Location on Campus: Northeast Corner Date(s) of Construction: 1854original construction Designer: unknown Type of Place: Individual building Style: Italianate, Regionalist/Vernacular (Glossary) Significance: education, history Narrative: see below References: see below Materials: Foundation: stone Walls: wood Roof: Function:ca. 1854president's houseca. 1907academic department building (art)ca. 1907administrationca. 2004-present (2006)museum Narrative: This building was the home of James Harlan, who served as president of the Mt. Pleasant Collegiate Institute from 1853-1855 and led the petition to change the name to Iowa Wesleyan University. Harlan resigned to become the first Republican Senator of the newly formed state of Iowa in the US Congress and maintained the home in Mt. Pleasant. Harlan also served as Secretary of the Interior and as a trustee of Iowa Wesleyan from 1855 until his death in 1899. He served as college president again in 1869-1870. Harlan's daughter Mary married Robert Todd Lincoln, son of President Abraham Lincoln, and Mrs. Robert Todd Lincoln gave her father's home to Iowa Wesleyan in 1907. The building has been the president's home, an administrative home, and has housed the art department. The home has a place in the college, community, state and national history. The building is being maintained, and the current restoration projects are being driven by a Harlan-Lincoln House preservation committee. The group is working to restore the building and determine the focus of the museum. References: Brigham, Johnson. James Harlan. Iowa City: State Historical Society of Iowa, 1913. Haselmayer, Louis A.

hide Zimmerman trial juror drops plan to write a book Tuesday, July 16, 2013 1:16 a.m. CDT George Zimmerman talks to court security investigator Robert Hemmert for a recess after a jury question during his trial in the shooting dea MIAMI (Reuters) - One of the six jurors in the George Zimmerman trial has abandoned her plans to write a book explaining why she found him not guilty of murder in the shooting of unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin, her literary agent said on Monday. The jury's decision triggered protests across the United States by activists who said Martin was targeted because he was black. Unidentified juror B37 had signed with Martin Literary Management, an agency based in Mercer Island, Washington, the firm's president, Sharlene Martin, said in a statement on Monday. The juror had planned to write the book with her husband, who is an attorney, explaining how the jury had "no option" but to find Zimmerman not guilty, but she subsequently decided not to proceed with publication, Martin added later. The juror did not spell out the reasons for her change of heart but said her isolation in the jury room meant she had not been fully aware of the outrage over the case. "The potential book was always intended to be a respectful observation of the trial from my and my husband's perspectives solely and it was to be an observation that our 'system' of justice can get so complicated that it creates a conflict with our 'spirit' of justice," she said in the written statement. "Now that I am returned to my family and to society in general, I have realized that the best direction for me to go is away from writing any sort of book and return instead to my life as it was before I was called to sit on this jury," she added. On Saturday, the jury found Zimmerman, a former neighborhood watchman, not guilty of second-degree murder and manslaughter in the February 26, 2012, shooting death of Martin, who was 17. Jurors have remained anonymous under a judge's order. Juror B37 has been described as a mother of two who grew up in a military family and used to have a permit to carry a concealed weapon. During jury selection, she said she believed most gun training was inadequate. Martin previously said the juror's book "could open a whole new dialogue about laws that may need to be revised and revamped to suit a 21st-century way of life." Some of the recent deals Martin's agency has handled include a book by Jessica Buchanan, an American aid worker who was kidnapped and rescued by U.S. special forces in Somalia in 2012 after she was held three months in captivity. It is also involved in an upcoming book on the high-profile trial of Jodi Arias, who was convicted earlier this year of first-degree murder in the death of her ex-boyfriend.

Hilbert transformer and time delay: statistical comparison in the presence of Gaussian noise Engineering Innovation Research  dc.contributor.author Hussain, Z.M Boashash, Boualem IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, Vol. 50, No. 3, pp 501-508 A time-delay can be used instead of, or, to implement the Hilbert Transform for quadrature phase shifting. We have shown that in the presence of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) additive Gaussian noise, the performance of a time delay as a phase shifter, which produces a signal-dependent phase shift, is comparable with the performance of a Hilbert transformer which produces a signal-independent 90° phase shift, especially for high signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) and the proper choice of the delay. Sinusoidal signals are considered. It is shown that the time-delay phase process in Gaussian noise can be approximated by the noise-free phase plus a non-Gaussian phase noise. As the SNR increases, the expected value of the time-delay phase estimator approaches the true value of the phase, and its variance substantially decreases and converges to the Cramer-Rao bound for all ranges of the effective parameters: the phase shift, the deterministic phase, and SNR. A symmetric transformation of the phase probability density function (PDF) that improves the performance of the time delay in Gaussian noise is also proposed.

Nation’s Largest Jewish Organization Urges Senators to Support HRF and Fork Acts Contact: Bethany Gotkin or Rachel Orkand, (202) 387-2800 Saperstein: "We cannot turn our backs on America's hungry. Our value of compassion, and our tradition of generosity compel us to act on behalf of those less fortunate. Again and again our biblical tradition demands that we share our resources, for they belong not to us, but to God." WASHINGTON September 28, 2000- Rabbi David Saperstein, Director of the Religious Action Center, sent a letter to U.S. Senators today, explaining the need for their support of the Hunger Relief Act (HRA) and the Food Stamp Outreach and Research for Kids Act (FORK). The full text of the letter follows: Dear Senator: I write to you on behalf of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, representing 1.5 million Reform Jews, and the Central Conference of American Rabbis, representing 1800 rabbis throughout the United States, to ask for your support of the Hunger Relief Act (H.R. 3192/S. 1805) and the Food Stamp Outreach and Research for Kids Act (H.R. 2738/S. 1800). These life-saving bills currently remain stalled in committees, and while we recognize that this is a hectic time in Congress and there are many vital pieces of legislation to be considered, we urge you to place HRA and FORK at the top of your priority list and bring both to the floor for a vote. According to a recently released Food Research and Action Center report, newly published Census Bureau/U.S. Department of Agriculture data show that food stamp rolls have been declining. Unfortunately, this drop in food stamp participation has not been accompanied by a drop in hunger. Rather, demand for emergency food services at food pantries and other charitable organizations is rising dramatically. Despite the nation's prosperity, 31 million Americans - 12 million children and 19 million adults - still suffer from hunger or live on the brink of hunger. An overwhelming number of working parents struggle to feed their families, and as more low-income families move from welfare to work, the need for food assistance continuously increases. In more than one third of households receiving emergency food assistance, at least one person is employed and in almost half of these cases, that person is working full time. There is no denying that hunger has far reaching implications for communities and individuals. Hunger squanders the opportunities of children who might have had bright academic futures; individuals who do not receive adequate nutrition perform poorly in school and present disciplinary difficulties. Among adults, hunger diminishes the ability to concentrate. And hunger takes a heavy physical toll, increasing health crises. We cannot turn our backs on America's hungry. Our value of compassion, and our tradition of generosity, compel us to act on behalf of those less fortunate. Again and again our biblical tradition demands that we share our resources, for they belong not to us, but to God. "When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not wholly reap the corners of your field, or gather the gleanings of your harvest…you shall leave them for the poor and for the stranger..." (Leviticus 19:9-10). Please do not allow the HRA and the FORK Act to become victims of politics and time constraint. They are too vital, too necessary to millions of men, women, and children nationwide, to be treated as such. Respectfully, /s/ Rabbi David Saperstein ### The Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism is the Washington office of the Union of American Hebrew Congregations (UAHC), whose 900 congregations across North America encompass 1.5 million Reform Jews, and the Central Conference of American Rabbis (CCAR) whose membership includes over 1700 Reform rabbis. options

May 14, 2013 @ 4:37AM FBI Searching For Missing Montana Teacher Posted on Jan 11, 2012 @ 3:00AM Authorities are going door to door searching for clues into the disappearance of missing mom and beloved teacher Sherry Arnold. The 43-year-old mother of five went for a run on Saturday, January 7 and hasn’t been seen since. Police found a single running shoe in a ditch along her route in Sidney, Montana. The FBI and local law enforcement are investigating the possibility that she was abducted from the town, which borders North Dakota, according to HelenAir.com/Independent Record. PHOTOS: Casey Anthony’s Secret Wild Life Federal Agent Deborah Bertrand said tips were coming in about Arnold, but did not reveal any details. “At some point we feel like we’ve exhausted the possibilities in that area where she was last seen and apparently disappeared from,” Bertrand said of the door to door investigation. “We’re glad to have all the attention we’re getting,” she said about the tips coming in. “We want to get her name and face out there.” PHOTOS: Casey Anthony Released From Jail Arnold is a popular math teacher who grew up in the town. She is married to Gary Arnold and they have five children, including two who still live at home and attend the school where their mother has worked for the last 18 years. The Mayor of Sidney, Bret Smelser, said that the school district has provided buses to transport members of search teams and has set up a fund to help with the investigation. He also said law enforcement spoke with Sherry’s family members and parents, Ron and Sharon Whited. “The promise they made Ron and Sharon was that they wouldn’t give up until they had found something or found Sherry,” Smelser said. The telephone hotline for tips is (406) 433-4027. Teen Victim Identified In Murder At Queen Elizabeth’s Estate Casey Anthony’s Second Video: See The Shocking Photos!

» Debunking the Prometheus Top 10 Problems with HD Radio Debunking the Prometheus Top 10 Problems with HD Radio Jul 20, 2009 3:48 PM, By Chriss Scherer, editor The Prometheus Radio Project, a non-profit organization founded by a small group of radio activists in 1998, builds, supports, and advocates for community radio stations. Primary the goals of the organization are to "demystify technologies, the political process that governs access to our media system, and the effects of media on our lives and our communities." Unfortunately, its effort to demystify the technology is not always accurate. For example, the group recently posted a document titled Top Ten Problems with HD Radio. This document attempts to show the flaws with the HD Radio system, however, there are flaws in the Prometheus logic and science. This references the Prometheus article. While portions are copied here, the complete text is available at the Prometheus site. The Prometheus questions are included, but only part of the Prometheus answer may appear. 1. If you don't already own a radio station, HD Radio isn't for you. Prometheus says "In its current form, HD Radio is available only to the tiny world of incumbent broadcasters." Actually, it's available to any AM or FM broadcast who licenses the technology. The group tries to paint low-power stations as being a completely different technology than full-power stations. It's all the same spectrum and all the same transmission technology. The 'in it's current form' is an easy way for Prometheus to give itself a way out of this argument. Prometheus also claims "But with no risk of competition from new entrants, HD radio isn't likely to have programming that's all that much more diverse than what you already hear. HD Radio (as it's currently conceived) doesn't open media access to new voices." First, HD Radio wasn't designed to provide access for new voices on the airwaves. It was designed to digitize and enhance existing services. Second, with the addition of multicasting, FM stations with HD Radio could provide alternative programming if they want. Because radio broadcasting is a business (even for non-profits) with real costs to operate, there has to be some level of mass appeal. I agree that many stations are overly conservative in their programming choices, and multicasting provides a way to loosen that grip. 2. It doesn't actually work yet. It doesn't? 1,200 stations are on the air right now. The better statement would be 'It's doesn't work perfectly yet.' We already know that digital coverage is sometimes less than analog coverage, although the digital coverage at -20dBc usually meets the protected contour. The idea of increasing the digital sidebands to as much as -10dBc will extend the digital coverage indoors and help emulate the coverage beyond the protected contour.

These symbols are: circle, plus sign, wavy lines, square, and star. The five symbols developed by Dr. Karl Zener for use in tests of extrasensory perception. These are normally used in a deck of twenty-five cards, five of each symbol. For decades, Zener cards have been employed in parapsychological laboratories in the search for the ever-elusive powers called telepathy and clairvoyance. So far, in spite of millions of bits of data gathered through that extensive exploration, experiments with Zener cards have failed to yield convincing, replicable results. After a few years of association with Dr. Rhine, Zener began efforts to have him removed from the campus of Duke University, fearing the burden that the university would have to bear for being connected with parapsychology.

RandyChapman’s Ability Law Blog Categories Americans with Disabilities Act (59) children with disabilities (121) Disability Law (71) early intervention and part C (16) Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (105) least restrictive environment (17) Special Education Law (82) The Everyday Guide to Special Education Law (3) Vocational Rehabilitation (5) Supreme Court Nominee Judge Sonia Sotomayor and Disability Law Posted on May 28, 2009 by randychapman The Bazelon Center for Mental Health Law has provided a valuable service by producing a Preliminary Review of Disability Cases of Judge Sonia Sotomayor. That review provides a fairly in depth analysis of Judge Sotomayor’s decisions in disability cases. The review identifies twenty eight cases involving disability law and, if you’re just keeping score, Judge Sotomayor decided in favor of the person with a disability in twenty of the twenty eight. The cases listed include cases involving the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Section 504, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), Social Security, Medicaid, and Protection and Advocacy System access to schools to monitor seclusion and restraint. A few cases are of particular note. Judge Sotomayor dissented from the other judges holding in EEOC v. J.B. Hunt Transportation, Inc., 321 F. 3d 69 (2d Cir. 2003) that the plaintiffs, applicants for truck driving jobs, did not have disabilities. The case was brought under the ADA by truck driving applicants who were denied jobs based on their use of certain disability related prescription medications. The majority of the court ruled that though the applicants were denied the jobs because they were perceived as unsuitable to be over-the-road truck drivers, they were not perceived as having disabilities. The majority judges did not connect the link between being denied a job due to the use of disability related prescription medication and being denied the job due to having a disability. Judge Sotomayor disagreed: “Thus, the EEOC has provided sufficient evidence that a fact finder could reasonably conclude that Hunt regarded the rejected applicants as substantially limited in the major life activity of working, because Hunt regarded them as unfit to be truck drivers.” In Bartlett v New York State Bd. of Law Examiners, 970 F. Supp. 1094 (S.D.N.Y. 1997), while in federal district court Judge Sotomayor ruled in favor of a law license applicant with a learning disability. Due to having a learning disability, the applicant had difficulty reading and requested accommodations such as extra time on the bar exam. The accommodations were denied because the examiners did not believe she was limited in the major life activities of reading or working. Judge Sotomayor determined Ms. Bartlett was limited in the major life activity of working eloquently stating: “For those of us for whom words sing, sentences paint pictures, and paragraphs create panoramic views of the world, the inability to identify and process words with ease would be crippling. Plaintiff, an obviously intelligent, highly articulate individual reads slowly, haltingly, and laboriously. She simply does not read in the manner of an average person. I reject the basic premise of defendants’ experts that a learning disability in reading can be identified solely by a person’s inability to decode, i.e., identify words, as measured by standardized tests, and I accept instead the basic premise of plaintiff’s experts that a learning disability in reading has to be identified in the context of an individual’s total processing difficulties.” Judge Sotomayor ruled Ms. Bartlett was entitled, under the ADA, to the accommodations on the bar examination. In, Frank G. v. Board of Education of Hyde Park, 459 F.3d 356 (2d Cir. 2006), an IDEA case I discussed in a previous posting, Judge Sotomayor agreed with the Second Circuit panel that the parents’ unilateral placement of their child in a private school was appropriate. The parents were entitled to tuition reimbursement and they were not required to keep their child in a public school placement until it was clear that the child had actually failed and a year wasted. This is similar to the issue in the Forest Grove case recently heard by the Supreme Court but, as yet, undecided. Finally, in Connecticut Office of Protection & Advocacy v. Hartford Bd. of Education, 464 F.3d 229 (2d Cir.2006), Judge Sotomayor wrote an opinion granting Protection and Advocacy (P&A) Systems for Persons with Mental Illness, like my agency, access to school programs to monitor abuse and neglect of students. The Connecticut P&A System had received complaints that students at a public school had been subjected to the inappropriate use of physical restraint and seclusion at school. Federal law authorizes P&A Systems to have access to programs providing disability services to investigate complaints of abuse and neglect of persons with mental illness and other disabilities. Judge Sotomayor’s decision clarified that since the schools provide a therapeutic educational program to students with emotional disabilities; the P&A has access to that program and has access to the contact information of parents or guardians of the students in the program. The benefits of granting P&A access to schools can be seen in the recent NDRN report regarding the inappropriate use of seclusion and restraint in schools. This report was based on the investigative work in public schools of P&As throughout the country. To be sure, Judge Sonia Sotomayor has not always ruled in favor of the person with a disability in the case before her. Cases should not be decided based on the disability or other status of the litigants. Cases are decided by determining the facts and applying and interpreting the law to the facts. Frankly, I was very moved by her eloquence in the Bartlett decision determining that reading as a life skill: “For those of us for whom words sing, sentences paint pictures, and paragraphs create panoramic views of the world, the inability to identify and process words with ease would be crippling. Plaintiff, an obviously intelligent, highly articulate individual reads slowly, haltingly, and laboriously.” Based on these words and the analysis provided by the Bazelon Center, I believe Judge Sotomayor will be a fine Supreme Court Justice.

Battle Video Archives The 50 Greatest Battle Rappers of All-Time 50 Greatest Battlers of All-Time: Mac Lethal Discussion in 'The 50 Greatest Battle Rappers of All-Time' started by gregrieke20, Apr 27, 2011. gregrieke20 I am a graphic designer, and this is a follow up on a book I'm creating noting the 50 greatest battlers of all-time. By now, I know a good number of you are aware of it. RegularJoe, (a poster on here) offered to write the bios and has begun working on some of them. I tried doing it myself at the beginning, but I figured it'd be best to leave a writer to do that portion of the work, and I feel its been a DEFINITE improvement. Each spread of the book will be set up so the battler's illustration is on one page, and his bio is on the other. I will be posting them every so often on here, and I encourage feedback, criticism, other info, and whatever else you all can offer. Below is both the bio itself, and how it will appear in the book. This is Mac Lethal's. Thanks again, all previous feedback has been a huge help. Also, all the previous spreads that were posted can be found in a new subforum. Here is the link: http://board.rapmusic.com/50-greates...pers-all-time/ (My apologies to the mods for not immediately putting it there, its just that I don't know if people are completely aware of that subforum yet, so I was just going to post two or three here until people are aware, then hopefully they'll sort of gravitate over there for these.) gregrieke20, Some people are born into the battling world. They grow up immersed in hip hop culture, passed down by their neighbourhood idols. They enter local tournaments, gain experience and catch bodies. Some people have a massive scene they can run through, a market to build a reputation in, competition waiting on every street corner. And some people, like Mac Lethal, don't exactly have that opportunity. Not to take anything away from Kansas City's hip hop scene, but for Mac Lethal, growing up there offered him only a tight knit community to hone his skills. Cyphers and battles would break out at hip hop shows, but the type of events that were going down in New York and California were only dreamed about in the middle of the map. It was 1998 when Mac first came across a flier for Scribble Jam. He was enthralled by the competition. But he didn't feel he was ready. Mac spent the next three years studying the art of battling online, working up the courage to enter the tournament in 2001. Problem was, he didn't have any footage to prove he belonged. So he faked it. Piecing together crowd reactions with his bars, Mac spent hours creating audio clips to act as footage, earning him a spot in the tournament. When he arrived in Cincinnati, he proved his skills extended far beyond his computer screen. Mac rolled through the competition, putting up some of the most memorable performances of the event, making it all the way to the finals before eventual

Ladies, have you ever checked out another women? Discussion in 'Ladies Lounge' started by sweet_I, Mar 5, 2007. ^That's what I meant, as well... I'm telling you, not every female body is beautiful... not every coochie is pretty... at the risk of sounding gay, I don't want to speak for other men, but my body looks like it's cut from stone and I have a beautiful penis... it's even-toned and smooth, not a whole lot of veins poking out.. the head is congruent and symmetrical... my balls are pretty, too... you might even say they're mouth-watering. Ignorant, sweet_I Ignorant said: Not trying to be rude, but do you think you might be a lesbian?Click to expand... Not taking it as a rude question.

BBS > Activities > Publications > Field Bryology Field Bryology Field Bryology is published twice a year by the British Bryological Society. It is the official record of the society and its business. All members receive a copy as part of their annual subscription. A brief history of this publication, written by Roy Perry, is available here. Current issue - Volume 110 November 2013 The contents of the current issue of Field Bryology are available here, together with PDFs of two of the articles in this issue to whet your appetite. Previous issues An archive of articles from previous issues of Field Bryology, starting with the February 2008 issue, is available here. For 2011-2012 issues (103) onwards click here. For 2013 - 2014 issues click here. Guidelines for Authors Items for publication and enquiries for advertising space should be addressed to the Editors (J. Wilbraham & S. Pressel, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, SW7 5BD, UK. Email: Fieldbryology@gmail.com Items for inclusion in forthcoming issues of Field Bryology should be sent to the Editors by the following dates: May 2014 (no. 111) 1 March 2013 November 2014 (no. 112) 1 September 2014 Articles on all subjects related to field bryology will be considered, including ecology, conservation, recording, distribution, taxonomy and identification, and reports of field meetings. T hey should be of general interest to all of our members both in the UK and worldwide. Remember that the reader may not necessarily be a professional scientist and may not be familiar with the subject of your article. However, Field Bryology is not a peer-reviewed scientific journal and is not a suitable place for primary scientific publication. Full scientific studies and descriptions of new species that require full peer review should be submitted to a research journal such as Journal of Bryology . Papers reporting taxa new to British and Ireland should also be submitted to a peer-reviewed research journal, but authors of such papers are encouraged to also publish a ‘lighter’, less rigorous article in Field Bryology following publication of the main paper. Articles for inclusion in some of the new regular sections, such as Bryophytes Abroad, Conservation Corner, Ecology Matters, etc., will normally be solicited by the Editor, but the Editor will always be happy to consider unsolicited material for these sections. Images a re always welcome and add immensely to the readability and interest of all types of article. Field Bryology is printed in colour and attractive colour photographs are always welcome. Permission must be obtained to reproduce photographs and legends must be supplied. Authors should supply brief biographical information and details of their title, name, job title, full address, telephone, fax and e-mail address. Please note that published articles become the copyright of BBS and may be reproduced on our web page. Submission of copy Material submitted for publication should be provided as word-processing files, either on disk (preferably CD or DVD) or by email . Authors are encouraged to circulate drafts of their articles to fellow bryologists for comment prior to submission. In addition, the Editors may invite other bryologists to comment on submitted articles before they are published. There is no strict upper or lower limit on the length of articles. However, ideally they should be somewhere in the range of 500-5,000 words (approx. 1-8 printed pages, excluding images). Ultimately, the article will have to fit into the available space and it may have to be edited to make this possible. However, you will receive a proof for approval before publication. Submission of images Photographs should be supplied as TIFF, JPEG or EPS files. The resolution should be at least 300 dpi at final size (approx. 2,000 pixels wide for a double-column figure) – the standard output from most digital cameras will usually be sufficient . For photomicrographs, magnification should be shown by a scale bar. Line drawings should be of a quality suitable for direct reproduction. The maximum printed size is 135 x 205 mm. Artwork can be sent to the Editor at the address above for scanning; alternatively, line drawings can be sent in PowerPoint, Illustrator or EPS format (fonts embedded), or TIFF/JPG files of scans [please note that scans of line drawings should be at least 600 dpi, preferably 1,200 dpi, at final size (approx. 4,000 or 8,000 pixels wide for a double-column figure)]. References References in the text should be cited as follows: two authors, Laurel & Hardy (2007) or (Laurel & Hardy, 1996); three or more authors, Laurel et al. (2007) or (Laurel et al., 2007). References to papers by the same author(s) in the same year should be distinguished in the text and the reference list by the letters a, b, etc. (e.g. 2007a or 2007a, b). The style of references in the reference list should follow the examples shown below. Sample reference to a paper in a journal: Sotiaux, A., Pioli, A., Royaud, A., Schumacker, R. & Vanderpoorten, A. (2007). A checklist of the bryophytes of Corsica (France): new records and a review of the literature. Journal of Bryology 29, 41-53. Sample reference to a whole book: Smith, A. J. E. (2004).

In Mosses and Liverworts (New Naturalist Series No. 97), pp. 147-186. London: HarperCollins. Only papers accepted for publication but not yet published may be cited as 'in press' in the reference list, and the reference must include the name of the journal. References to papers not yet accepted should be cited in the text as unpublished results, giving the surname(s) and initials of all the author(s). Such papers should not appear in the list of references. Permission must be obtained for any personal communications or citations of other workers' unpublished results. Taxonomy Taxonomy should aim to follow the current census catalogue ( Hill, M.O., Blackstock, T.H., Long, D. L. & Rothero, G.P. (2008).

Out of Control Policy BlogNew at Reason.org: Poole on DOT Congestion Plan Today the U.S. Department of Transportation announced a new initiative to battle traffic congestion with a six-point plan that includes offering incentives to states and urban areas to expand their use of market pricing and public-private partnerships. "Congestion has become intolerable, and it's great to see the DOT declaring war on this national scourge," said Reason Foundation's Director of Transportation Studies Robert Poole, an advisor to the last four presidential administrations who has also consulted with the Federal Highway Administration, the Federal Transit Administration, the White House Office of Policy Development, and numerous state departments of transportation. "DOT recognizes that it's going to take many billions of dollars in additional investment to add the capacity needed to catch up with transportation growth, after two decades of falling behind," Poole said. "That's why a national push for public-private partnerships and much greater use of value-priced tolling are so important to this effort." "It's also very welcome to see the emphasis on long-haul, multi-state corridors and urban freight bottlenecks. It's often said that 'Trucks don't vote'; therefore, goods movement has been the poor stepchild in transportation planning for way too long. I hope DOT's new effort will jump-start emerging projects for truck-only toll lanes," Poole said.

Written by Miranda, Nicolle Galyon and Natalie Hemby, the autobiographical song reflects on the days of pay phones, learning to drive a stick shift, driving to Dallas to buy an Easter dress, recording the country countdown on her cassette recorder and more. “‘Automatic’ is a song about the good life,” said Miranda of the single that is available to radio on Wednesday, February 5. “It’s about slowing down, taking a breath and remembering what it’s like to live life a little more simply. It’s not about going back, but reminiscing about what it was like to hang laundry on the line and wait for it to dry and my dad teaching me how to drive my ’55 Chevy that I still have but don’t drive nearly enough,” she said. “The song brings back good memories and it reminds me to take a deep breath and to remember that getting there is half the fun.” “Automatic” is the debut single from Miranda’s fifth album, which will be released later this year. “It’s always exciting and little bit nerve-wracking to release a new album,” said Miranda. “We’ve been writing and recording since last summer and I’m ready for the fans to hear my new music.” US/AU/CA/NZ/IT/GB/IE : January 15, 2014 THE SONG WAS WRITTEN FOR PALOMA BY PHARRELL WILLIAMS, WHO ALSO APPEARS ON THE TRACK AND PRODUCED IT PALOMA’S THIRD ALBUM A PERFECT CONTRADICTION COMING LATER THIS YEAR (January 13th, 2013 — New York, NY) - The amazing PALOMA FAITH goes back to her soul roots on brand new single “Can’t Rely On You.” The video directed by Paul Gore (John Legend, Amy Winehouse, Snow Patrol) premiered today on VEVO: http://smarturl.it/CROYyt. The single was written for Paloma by Pharrell Williams who also produced the track and appears on it as backing vocalist and singer of the impassioned line “I don’t know what this world is coming to”. The pair met when Paloma attended the Met Ball at New York’s Metropolitan Museum and Pharrell approached her by singing her song ‘New York’ to her. He then took her ‘phone, put his number in and said ‘I’m ready to work’. She texted him whilst still at the ball to check if he was serious, he texted back to confirm that he was, and the pair recorded the track in Miami. The song is the first to appear from Paloma’s forthcoming album A Perfect Contradiction which, like the single, shows a distinct return to her early soul-girl roots. Influences as diverse as classic Stax, Phil Spector, 1960’s girl groups, ‘70’s disco and early 1980’s soul come together on an album that is the most upbeat Paloma has ever made. Watch the amazing new video here: http://smarturl.it/CROYyt More details on “Can’t Rely On you” and A Perfect Contradiction to follow. www.palomafaith.com www.facebook.com/palomafaith www.twitter.com/palomafaith www.instagram.com/palomafaith US/AU/CA/NZ : January 15, 2014 Nashville, TN – Arista Nashville recording artists and NBC The Voice Season 4 finalists The Swon Brothers debuted their new song, “Later On,” to a rousing response during a return performance to the show in December, and “Later On” has now been officially announced as the debut single from the duo’s upcoming album. Penned by Ryan Hurd, Joey Hyde, and Justin Wilson, “Later On” shipped to country radio today, with an official airplay impact date in March. Released for sale digitally just prior to the duo’s performance on The Voice, “Later On” shot to #1 on iTunes’ Country Top Songs chart within 24 hours, immediately resonating with fans, just as it had with the Swons themselves. “We are beyond blessed and excited to be releasing our very first single on Arista Nashville! We believe that with the love and support from our fans this song has big potential.” says Zach Swon. “We’ve waited and prayed for this moment our whole lives and its finally here! We are more than ready to meet all the folks at country radio and want to say thank you in advance for welcoming your two new brothers to the family!,” says Colton Swon. The Swon Brothers are currently at work on their Arista Nashville debut album, helmed by multi-million-selling producer Mark Bright (Carrie Underwood, Sara Evans). Featuring “Later On,” the album is set for release later this year. Fans who missed the duo’s December performance of “Later On” on The Voice can see it online here: http://bit.ly/1cp1DKM. About The Swon Brothers The Swon Brothers (Zach and Colton) first hit the national radar charming fans with their incredible sibling harmonies and fun-loving personalities as finalists on Team Blake in Season 4 of NBC’s The Voice. Newly signed to the Arista Nashville record label, the brothers returned to The Voice in December of 2013 to perform “Later On,” the first taste of the Muskogee, OK, natives’ upcoming album, helmed by producer Mark Bright (Carrie Underwood, Sara Evans). The journey marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in the history of the Swons, who had the ambition to take their first swing at a record deal when they were only 9 and 11 years old, asking their parents to stop in Nashville so they could audition at record labels on their way to a family vacation in Florida. Recently honored with the Rising Star award by the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame, The Swon Brothers are currently writing and securing songs for their major-label debut album, coming later this year.

PHARRELL EARNS SEVEN GRAMMY NOMINATIONS US/AU/CA/NZ : December 20, 2013 GRAMMY® AWARD-WINNING SUPERSTAR PHARRELL WILLIAMS SIGNS WITH COLUMBIA RECORDS NEW SINGLE “HAPPY” AVAILABLE NOW (Columbia Records; New York, NY – December 17, 2013)—Columbia Records is thrilled to announce a new partnership with GRAMMY® Award-winning singer/songwriter/producer Pharrell Williams. The internationally renowned artist’s new single “Happy,” featured on Despicable Me 2 (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), will also be featured on Williams’ forthcoming Columbia Records full-length debut, set to be released in 2014. Just last month, Williams released the world’s first 24 hour music video for “Happy,” which is presented as an interactive clock, featuring a diverse cast of characters dancing along to the song. The one-of-a-kind clip can be seen at http://24hoursofhappy.com, and the official version at http://bit.ly/1dl4DhB. News of the signing adds to an already incredible year for Williams. Having co-written and been featured on two of 2013’s best-selling tracks—Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” and Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky”— Williams has also received seven GRAMMY® nominations: Producer of the Year (Non-Classical), two nominations for Record of the Year (“Get Lucky” by Daft Punk ft. Pharrell Williams and “Blurred Lines” by Robin Thicke ft. T.I. and Pharrell Williams), two nominations for Best Pop Duo/Performance (“Get Lucky” by Daft Punk ft. Pharrell Williams and “Blurred Lines” by Robin Thicke ft. T.I. and Pharrell Williams), and two Album of the Year nominations (“Random Access Memories” by Daft Punk and “good kid, m.A.A.d city” by Kendrick Lamar). “When we excitedly partnered with Pharrell in January of this year, we felt it was his time again,” says Columbia Records Chairman/CEO Rob Stringer. “Since then, ‘Blurred Lines’ and ‘Get Lucky’ have defined pop music in 2013, and now we are preparing to launch Pharrell as a global solo superstar in 2014. ‘Happy’ is just the beginning.” Redefining cool for a new generation, Pharrell Williams is a creative force, using music, fashion, and design to express his distinctive style. From his beginnings as a teenage prodigy and multi-instrumentalist in Virginia Beach back in the early ’90s, through enough hits to earn him Billboard’s Producer of the Decade in 2010, to his current status as multi-media superstar, Williams has never stopped creating. Starting his producing career as one half of The Neptunes with Chad Hugo, Williams has helped create such classics as Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines,” Nelly’s “Hot in Herre,” Jay-Z’s “I Just Wanna Love U (Give it 2 Me),” Britney Spears’s “I’m A Slave 4 U,” and Justin Timberlake’s “Like I Love You.” With over 100 million copies of his productions sold, his music sounds like something no one else has thought of just yet. He’s also created a new way of looking at established stars like Snoop Dogg, Madonna, and even the Rolling Stones. Over four albums, Williams and Hugo along with Shae Haley created an unpredictable hybrid as part of the alt-rock/hip-hop group N.E.R.D. His prolific body of work also ranges from designing a sculpture with Tokyo-born artist Takashi Murakami to accessories and jewelry for luxury goods brands Louis Vuitton and Moncler. Now, with his latest venture i am OTHER — a multi-media creative collective that serves as an umbrella for all his endeavors, including Billionaire Boys Club & ICECREAM apparel, textile company Bionic Yarn and dedicated YouTube channel — Williams’ vision continues to push pop culture forward. US/AU/CA/NZ/IT/GB/IE : December 17, 2013 SANTANA JOINED BY MUSICAL SUPERSTARS CHOCQUIBTOWN, LILA DOWNS, GLORIA ESTEFAN, JUANES, MIGUEL, FHER OLVERA OF MANÁ, NIÑA PASTORI, SAMUEL ROSA OF SKANK, ROMEO SANTOS, SOLEDAD AND DIEGO TORRES SATURDAY NIGHT IN GUADALAJARA, MEXICO AT THIS ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME CONCERT EVENT “CORAZÓN, LIVE FROM MEXICO: LIVE IT TO BELIEVE IT” IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE MEXICO TOURISM BOARD LIVE CONCERT TO PREMIERE ON HBO LATINO AND HBO LATIN AMERICA SPRING 2014 (New York - Monday, December 16, 2013) Fresh off of receiving his Kennedy Center Honors Award last week, Carlos Santana took the stage with his band SANTANA this past Saturday, December 14th for a once-in-a-lifetime concert event performing to a sold out house at Arena VFG in Guadalajara, Mexico. SANTANA was joined by some of Latin’s music biggest and brightest stars including ChocQuibTown, Lila Downs, Gloria Estefan, Juanes, Miguel, Fher Olvera of Maná, Niña Pastori, Samuel Rosa of Skank, Romeo Santos, Soledad and Diego Torres, performing songs from his forthcoming studio album CORAZÓN, to be released in spring 2014. The live concert will be released on DVD next year and will premiere on HBO Latino and HBO Latin America in spring 2014. The concert also featured some of SANTANA’s greatest hits including a rendition of "Corazón Espinado" featuring Fher Olvera of Maná and Cindy Blackman Santana on drums, “Maria, Maria” featuring Miguel, “Oye Como Va,” “Samba Pa Ti” and many others. One of the many highlights of the night was the performance of the new single “La Flaca” where Santana was joined by Juanes on stage and a performance of “Saideira”, the Portuguese language single, featuring Samuel Rosa of Skank. Both Juanes and Fher Olvera of Maná joined Carlos Santana only last week in Washington, DC when Santana received his Kennedy Center Honors award at a gala celebration also marking his incredible contribution as a national artistic treasure. Other highlights included Gloria Estefan singing “Besos De Lejos,” Romeo Santos on “Margarita,” Miguel on “Indy Jones,” “Iron Lion Zion” with Elan Atias and ChoQuibTown, and “Una Noche A Napoli” with Lila Downs, Niña Pastori, and Soledad. SANTANA was also joined by mariachi musicians onstage and later by many of his special guests for an electrifying finale of the traditional Mexican song “Cielito Lindo.” The concert, which took place 120 miles from Autlán where Carlos was born, was a true celebration of Carlos’ Mexican and Latin heritage, as well as a homecoming for him. It was also a fitting tribute for the musical icon whom has influenced so many Latin recording artists and has been integral to Latin culture and art over the past decades. A few days prior to the concert, Carlos filmed interviews for the forthcoming documentary entitled “Live It To Believe It,” on the Riviera Nayarit in Mexico. Carlos was joined in Nayarit by ChocQuibTown, Lila Downs, Juanes, Niña Pastori, Fher Olvera of Maná, Samuel Rosa of Skank, Salvador Santana, Soledad, and Cindy Blackman Santana, who were interviewed in various locations throughout the Nayarit Riviera. The documentary will be included in the DVD release of the show set for release in spring 2014 and will also be featured as part of the HBO special in spring 2014. Comments Rodolfo López Negrete, CEO of the Mexico Tourism Board: "Santana's concert was amazing. The collaborations with such an array of top artists were powerful. This project will add to the promotion of Mexico as a world-class tourism destination where important events occur. The forthcoming DVD and Television special " Corazón, Live from Mexico, Live It to Believe It" offers a great opportunity to touch Mexico's rich culture, diversity and its beautiful destinations.” About SANTANA: For forty years and as many albums later, Santana has sold more than 100 million records and reached more than 100 million fans at concerts worldwide. To date, Santana has won ten GRAMMY ® Awards and three Latin GRAMMY ® Awards. He won a record-tying nine GRAMMYs for a single project for 1999’s “Supernatural” (including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for “Smooth”). He has also received the Billboard Century Award (1996), was ushered into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1998), and received the Billboard Latin Music Awards’ Lifetime Achievement honor (2009). Among many other honors, Carlos Santana has also been cited by Rolling Stone as #15 on their list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.” Celebrating the chart debut of Guitar Heaven (Arista) in 2010, Santana joined the ranks of the Rolling Stones as the only musical act in chart history to score at least one Top 10 album in every decade beginning with the 1960s. He is also currently headlining at a multi-year residency at House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Resort in Las Vegas. On December 8th, Carlos Santana was the recipient of the 2013 Kennedy Center Honors Award. www.santana.com http://www.facebook.com/carlossantana twitter - @SantanaCarlos \ Photo Credit for Carlos Santana image above: Erik Kabib/Retna for RCA Records/Sony Latin Iberia.

The album comes over two years after the release of Stronger, her second Billboard Country Album Chart #1. Despite five #1 Country songs Slow Me Down’s title track, released earlier this Fall is Sara’s biggest first week Country radio added single ever. The song has been steadily climbing the charts ever since. The video featuring NASCAR great Carl Edwards is now in heavy rotation on both CMT and GAC and can be seen at http://tinyurl.com/SlowMeDownVideo. Slow Me Down is co-produced with Mark Bright (Reba McEntire, Rascal Flatts, and Carrie Underwood) who Evans last worked with on her Platinum-selling #1 Country album Real Fine Place (2005). Slow Me Down sees Evans collaborating on three tracks “Better Off” with Country legend Vince Gill, “Can’t Stop Loving You” a duet with Isaac Slade of The Fray and a cover of Gavin DeGraw’s “Not Over You,” which features Gavin singing harmonies. This album is what fans have waited for and newcomers are bound to fall in love with. “Making Slow Me Down has been a truly amazing experience,” said Evans. “I had the chance to co-write with some of my favorite writers, work with Mark (Bright) and some truly incredible musicians - and now hearing what we created gives me such an incredible sense of pride. Having Isaac (Slade), Gavin (DeGraw), and Vince (Gill) sing with me, was an amazing experience and they took those songs to another level. I honestly have never been more excited to have everyone hear one of my albums. I cannot wait to share it with everyone.” Slow Me Down is Sara Evans at her finest, with her signature powerful vocals that will serve as a reminder of why she has had a level of success reserved for few. Evans co-wrote three of the albums eleven-tracks and some of Nashville’s finest songwriters are represented on Slow Me Down. A virtual who’s who of songwriters on the album include Dave Berg (Keith Urban, Reba McEntire, Blake Shelton), Shane McAnally (Florida Georgia Line, Kasey Musgraves, Kelly Clarkson), Karyn Rochelle (Trisha Yearwood, LeAnn Rimes, Ronnie Milsap), Sarah Buxton (Keith Urban, The Band Perry, Gary Allan), and Shane Stevens (Lady Antebellum, Kellie Pickler, Montgomery Gentry), amongst many others. Since emerging in the late 1990s, Sara Evans has had five #1 songs, four others appearing in the Top 10, two #1 Billboard Country Albums, five appearing on Billboard’s Top 200 all-genre chart and four consecutive RIAA certified Gold, Platinum or Multi-Platinum albums. She’s received awards from the Country Music Association, Academy of Country Music, Billboard Music Award and has garnered nominations for Grammy Awards (2), American Country Awards (10) and CMT Music Awards (5). Sara won the hearts of America as the first country artist to compete in ABC’s Dancing with the Stars and was also chosen as one of People Magazine’s “50 Most Beautiful People.” For more official Sara Evans news and ticket information go to www.saraevans.com.

Click to watch video May 12th, 2012 10:00 PM ET With or without Romney, D.C. a surprising Mormon stronghold By Dan Gilgoff, CNN.com Religion Editor Alexandria, Virginia (CNN) – A few hundred Mormons filed into a chapel just outside the Washington Beltway one recent Sunday to hear a somewhat unusual presentation: an Obama administration official recounting his conversion to Mormonism. “I have never in my life had a more powerful experience than that spiritual moment when the spirit of Christ testified to me that the Book of Mormon is true,” Larry Echo Hawk told the audience, which stretched back through the spacious sanctuary and into a gymnasium in the rear. Echo Hawk’s tear-stained testimonial stands out for a couple of reasons: The White House normally doesn’t dispatch senior staff to bare their souls, and Mormons hew heavily Republican. It’s not every day a top Democrat speaks from a pulpit owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. And yet the presentation by Echo Hawk, then head of the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs, is also a perfect symbol of a phenomenon that could culminate in Mitt Romney’s arrival at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue next year: The nation’s capital has become a Mormon stronghold, with Latter-day Saints playing a big and growing role in the Washington establishment. The well-dressed crowd gathered for Echo Hawk’s speech was dotted with examples of inside-the-beltway Mormon power. In one pew sits a Mormon stake president – a regional Mormon leader – who came to Washington to write speeches for Ronald Reagan and now runs a lobbying firm downtown. Behind him in the elegant but plain sanctuary – Mormon chapels are designed with an eye toward functionality and economy – is a retired executive secretary of the U.S. Supreme Court. A few pews further back, the special assistant to the U.S. Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan sits next to a local Mormon bishop who came to Washington to work for Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah and now leads a congressionally chartered foundation. Mitt Romney, who would be the first Mormon president if elected, is the son of a Cabinet secretary under Richard Nixon. “In a Republican administration, there will be even more Mormons here,” whispers the bishop, Lewis Larsen, pointing out prominent Washingtonians around the chapel. “Every Republican administration just loads up with them.” Regardless of which party controls the White House, Mormonism in Washington has been growing for decades. When Larsen arrived in Washington in the early ’80s, there were a just handful of Mormon meetinghouses in northern Virginia, where he lives. Today, there are more than 25, each housing three separate congregations, or wards, as they’re known in the LDS Church. “There’s been an absolute explosion in Mormon growth inside the beltway,” Larsen says before slipping out of the pew to crank the air conditioning for the swelling crowd. The LDS Church says there are 13,000 active members within a 10-mile radius of Washington, though the area’s Mormon temple serves a much larger population – 148,000 Latter-day Saints, stretching from parts of South Carolina to New Jersey. Signs of the local Mormon population boom transcend the walls of the temple and meetinghouses. Crystal City, a Virginia neighborhood just across the Potomac River from Washington, has become so popular with young Mormons that it’s known as “Little Provo,” after the Utah city that’s home to church-owned Brigham Young University. Congress now counts 15 Mormon members, including Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, according to the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life. That means the 2% of the country that’s Mormon is slightly overrepresented on Capitol Hill. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Democrat, is the highest-placed elected Mormon in Washington. Even many Latter-day Saints joke about Washington’s “Mormon mafia” – referring to the number of well-placed LDS Church members across town – though they cringe at the thought of being seen as part of some cabal. (Echo Hawk, for his part, left the Obama administration a few weeks after his chapel presentation for a job in the LDS Church hierarchy). “No one talks about Washington being an Episcopalian stronghold or a Jewish stronghold,” says Richard Bushman, a Mormon scholar at Columbia University. Talk of “Mormon Washington,” he says, “represents a kind of surprise that people who were thought of as provincial have turned up in sophisticated power positions.” Bushman and other experts note that, despite Mormons’ growing political power, the official church mostly steers clear of politics. It’s hard to point to federal legislation or a White House initiative that bears distinctly Mormon fingerprints, while it’s easy to do the same for other faiths. For example, the White House’s recent “compromise” on a rule that would have required religious groups to fund contraception for employees was mostly a reaction to pressure from Roman Catholic bishops. Nonetheless, Mormon success in Washington is a testament to distinctly Mormon values, shedding light into the heart of one of America’s fastest-growing religions. And though the official church is mostly apolitical, most rank-and-file Mormons have linked arms with the GOP. Romney’s own political evolution mirrors that trend. Such forces help explain why Mormons’ beltway power is poised to grow even stronger in coming years, whether or not Romney wins the White House. ‘A ton of Mormon contacts’ For many Washington Mormons, religion plays a key role in explaining why they’re here. Larsen, who sports a brown comb-over and tortoise shell glasses, arrived in Washington in the early 1980s as an intern for Hatch, also a Mormon. He landed the internship courtesy of Brigham Young University, his alma mater. The Mormon school owns a four-story dorm on Pennsylvania Avenue, not too far from the White House, which houses 120 student interns each year. It’s the school’s largest such program in the nation. “Part of our church’s tradition is to be connected with civic life, to make our communities better,” says BYU’s Scott Dunaway, who helps place students on Capitol Hill, at the Smithsonian and other Washington institutions. “We don’t believe in being reclusive.” It’s a perfect characterization of Larsen. He grew up in Provo, in the shadow of BYU, and wanted to prove he could make it outside of Utah. “Kids growing up in the LDS Church have been told, ‘Go ye out in the world and preach the gospel of Christ - don’t be afraid to be an example,’ ” Larsen said, sitting in the glass-doored conference room of the foundation he runs on K Street. “So we are on our missions, converting people to Christianity,” he continued. “And coming to Washington, for me and probably for a lot of people, came out of that interest. We see it as our career, but also we’re going out to preach the word of Christ.” For Larsen, that usually means correcting misinformation about Mormonism or explaining Mormon beliefs and practices – you really don’t drink coffee, ever? – over lunch with co-workers or at business functions, rather than on-the-job proselytizing. He learned about integrating work and faith from Hatch. He was initially shocked to discover that the senator prays in his office each morning. Larsen and Hatch developed what the bishop calls a “father-son” relationship, with the intern rising up through the ranks to become Hatch’s chief Washington fundraiser. “We would go on trips, and I’d quiz him on the plane: Why did the church do this? Why didn’t the church do this?” Larsen said. “He was like a tutor to me.” Now, as the head of a foundation that educates teachers about the U.S. Constitution, the bishop helps other young Mormons with job leads and introductions. Larsen was appointed to the role by Hatch and the late U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy. Much of Washington’s Mormon professional network is still anchored by BYU, which operates a handful of big, well-connected alumni groups with major Washington chapters. The most prominent is BYU’s Management Society, a global organization whose biggest chapter is in Washington. At the chapter’s recent alumni dinner, former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was the guest of honor. She has strong ties to the Mormon community and has hired Mormons as top aides. Says Larsen: “Condi’s got a ton of Mormon contacts.” Patrice Pederson also knows how to work a Rolodex. A lifelong political activist, she moved from Utah to Washington last year and soon tapped into BYU’s local network. Pederson served as the U.S.-based campaign manager for Yeah Samake, a Mormon running for president in the West African nation of Mali. Samake traveled frequently to the U.S. to raise money and build political support, so Pederson enlisted the help of BYU’s Management Society and other groups to host events for the candidate. Both in Washington and across the U.S., many Mormons are watching his candidacy. “Members of the church on Capital Hill were anxious to introduce the candidate to other members of Congress,” says Pederson, sipping an herbal tea (Mormons eschew black leaf teas) in a strip mall Starbucks near her apartment in Alexandria, Virginia. “It’s cool to have a member of the church running for president in Africa.” Beyond making connections, many Washington Mormons say the LDS Church provides an ideal proving ground for careers here. Unlike most churches, it has no professional clergy; from the bishop to the organist, each role is filled by everyday Mormons, most of whom have other day jobs. As a result, Mormons take church leadership roles at an early age, speaking publicly at Sunday services almost as soon they learn to talk. “My kids grew up in the church, and we get together for three hours on Sundays, and each member needs to get up and speak,” says U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah. “By the time they graduate, they have all these speaking assignments that other teenagers just don’t have. U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, a Utah Republican, says Mormonism provides ideal training for aspiring politicians. “For those who grow up in the Mormon church, they are taught skills that allow them to be successful in a tough city like Washington,” says Chaffetz, who converted to Mormonism shortly after college. Young Mormons also hone leadership skills by serving missions away from home. The missions last from one and half to two years and happen when Mormons are in their late teens and early 20s and often include intensive foreign language training. “Young Mormons are more formidable in public settings and international settings than others,” says Terryl Givens, a Mormon scholar at the University of Richmond. “Normally you would have to acquire more age and work experience before you feel comfortable and useful at NGOs and think tanks.” Chaffetz, whose son is serving a mission in Ghana, says the experience is the perfect preparation for political careers. “They learn rejection early on,” he says. “If you’re going to be in politics, that’s a pretty good attribute.” Christina Tomlinson served her mission in nonexotic Fresno, California. But working with the Laotian community there, she acquired the foreign language skills that landed her first internship at the U.S. State Department. “I look back at that and it’s nothing but divine providence,” Tomlinson says one night at an office building-turned-chapel in Crystal City, after a weekly discussion about Mormon teachings. “I would have never made those choices.” When she arrived at her foreign service orientation in the late 1990s, Tomlinson was surprised to find that a half-dozen of her State Department colleagues were also Mormon. The thriving LDS community at State even runs its own e-mail list server so Latter-day Saints can find each other wherever in the world they’re stationed. Like former presidential candidate Jon Huntsman, who used the Mandarin language skills acquired through a Mormon mission to Taiwan to help secure his job as President Barack Obama’s previous ambassador to China, Tomlinson leveraged her mission to get ahead at State, where she now serves as special assistant to the U.S. Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan. “I’m basically the chief of staff for the president’s representative charged with implementing U.S. foreign policy towards Afghanistan and Pakistan,” she e-mailed on a recent plane ride back from the region. Language skills acquired on a Mormon mission helped Christina Tomlinson get her start at the State Department. At the point of a bayonet Like many Mormons, Tomlinson says her professional life is driven by a faith-based patriotism that sounds old-fashioned to modern ears: “I just really wanted to serve my country.” But that distinctly Mormon patriotism was hard-won. From their very beginning, Mormons had tried to forge a special relationship with Washington. And for decades, they failed. Joseph Smith, who founded Mormonism in the 1830s, petitioned the U.S. government to protect his fledgling religious community from the violent persecution it was experiencing, even meeting repeatedly with President Martin Van Buren. But Washington refused, provoking Smith – who Mormons consider their founding prophet – to run for president himself in 1844. He was assassinated by an anti-Mormon mob in Illinois well before Election Day. In the face of such attacks, Mormons fled west, to the territory that’s now Utah. But they continued to seek ties with Washington, dispatching representatives to the capital to lobby for statehood. Congress refused to grant it. Instead, Uncle Sam disincorporated the LDS Church and sent the U.S. Army to police Mormon territory. In the eyes of Washington, Latter-day Saints were flouting federal law by practicing polygamy. The feds saw the LDS Church as an undemocratic rival government that threatened Washington’s power. Joseph Smith, Mormonism’s founding prophet, ran for president in 1844 but was killed before Election Day. Mormons would eventually ban polygamy, paving the way for Utah statehood in 1896. But Congress nonetheless refused to seat the new state’s Mormon senator, who also served as a top church official. For four years, the U.S. Senate held hearings to grill U.S. Sen. Reed Smoot and other church leaders, alleging that Mormons continued to practice polygamy despite promises to the contrary. “The political trial was as much a galvanizing cultural moment as was Watergate,” says Kathleen Flake, a scholar of Mormonism at Vanderbilt University in Tenneessee. When Smoot was eventually seated – after the LDS Church took further steps to stamp out polygamy – he managed to become a Washington powerbroker. He would chair the Senate Finance Committee and act as a presidential adviser. “He was Mr. Republican,” says Flake. “For a while there, he was the Republican Party.” Smoot’s unflagging pursuit of legitimacy in Washington, despite the city’s bias against him and his faith, symbolizes what many call a uniquely Mormon appreciation for American civic life. It helps explain the Mormon fascination with Washington to this day. It may seen counterintuitive, but Mormons’ early exposure to persecution at the hands of other Americans – aided, Mormons say, by the U.S. government – wound up strengthening their patriotic streak. In the face of attacks, Mormons clung to the U.S. Constitution and its unprecedented guarantee of religious freedom. They distinguished between the document and those charged with implementing it. Mormon scripture goes so far as to describe the U.S. Constitution as divinely inspired, establishing a unique environment in which Mormonism could emerge. “Mormons are superpatriots,” says Columbia University’s Bushman. “Joseph Smith said that if the government was doing its job as laid out in the Constitution, it would protect Mormons from their enemies.” Mormons began to shed their Utah-only siege mentality and fanned out in the early part of the 20th century. Their patriotic streak, which translated into military enlistments and applications for government jobs, led many to Washington. That wave included J. Willard Marriott, the hotel chain founder, who launched his business career by opening an A&W root beer stand here. He would go on to forge the kind of deep political connections that would help make Willard “Mitt” Romney his namesake. Washington’s Mormon community got another boost in the 1950s when President Dwight Eisenhower appointed a top church official, Ezra Taft Benson, as his agriculture secretary. “Mormons took it as a sign of maybe, just maybe, we’re being accepted,” says Flake. “It signified a cultural acceptance of Mormonism. People thought Mormons believed weird things, but also that they were self-reliant, moral and good neighbors.” As Mormons became more accepted, they became more upwardly mobile, landing in parts of the country that could sustain careers in commerce, academia and government - another reason Washington was a big draw. By the time there were enough Mormons in the eastern U.S. to justify the construction of the first Mormon temple east of the Mississippi River, the church chose a site just outside Washington. The temple opened in 1974, shortly after another high-profile Mormon – George Romney, Mitt’s father – left his post as Richard Nixon’s secretary of Housing and Urban Development. “The Washington temple served as a symbol of the triumphant return of Mormonism to the east,” says Givens, the University of Richmond professor. “Mormons left from the point of a bayonet in the 1800s and the temple is this gigantic symbol that says ‘We’re back – and we’re back in the nation’s capital.’ ” The Mormon temple outside Washington was the first such temple built east of the Mississippi River. Unlike Mormon meetinghouses, where members meet for Sunday worship, temples are grander buildings reserved for certain rites, such as proxy baptisms for the dead. To this day, the first monument many Washington visitors see isn’t a federal landmark. It’s the massive Mormon temple, its Georgian marble towers and gold-leafed spires looming above the trees on the Washington Beltway like an otherworldly castle. The temple houses a J. Willard Marriott-financed mural of Jesus Christ’s second coming, which features a picture of the Washington temple itself in the background. “Are you implying that the millennium will begin in Washington?” a temple visitor once asked Marriott, referring to Jesus’ return. Replied Marriott: “What better place is there?” Good at organizing These days, the Mormon impulse toward Washington is often as much political as patriotic. Patrice Pederson - the campaign manager for the Mormon running for president in Mali - made her first foray into politics at 15, hopping the bus from her home in the suburbs of Salt Lake City into town to intern with a Republican candidate for the U.S. House. “I remember that when Bill Clinton was elected, I wore all black to school that day,” says Pederson, who was in junior high at the time. “I was mourning the death of liberty.” When then-Vice President Al Gore visited Utah, Pederson protested his speech with a homemade poster that said “Blood, Guts & Gore – Healthcare’94.” (She can’t recall the poster’s exact meaning). Pederson’s activism as a “total hardcore right-winger” continued into her 20s. She put off college at BYU to start a “pro-family” advocacy group aimed at lobbying foreign governments and the United Nations. The work brought her to Washington so frequently that she decided to relocate last year: “I had more friends here than in Utah.” Pederson’s path to D.C. speaks to the growing Mormon/Republican alliance since the 1960s, driven largely by the emergence of social issues such as abortion and gay marriage and the rise of the Christian Right. “In the 1950s and ’60s, Utah became Republican,” says Bushman. “It’s partly about being anti-communist, but it’s also a response to the 1960s and the decay of old-fashioned moral virtues. It’s an anti-1960s movement, and the Republicans seemed to be the party of old-fashioned virtues.” Pederson’s roommate, Kodie Ruzicka, grew up squarely in that movement, with her mom heading the Utah chapter of Eagle Forum, a conservative Christian group founded by rightwing icon Phyllis Schlafly. In the 1970s, when the Catholic Schlafly led a successful grassroots campaign against the Equal Rights Amendment, which would have made gender-based discrimination unconstitutional, she enlisted the help of Mormons. To its opponents, including the LDS Church, the ERA was the work of radical feminists who wanted to upend traditional gender roles. Much of Schlafly’s organizing was among evangelicals, and “given the sometimes hostile evangelical line on Mormons, [Schlafly’s] Mormon outreach was kind of revolutionary,” says Ruzicka, who now works at the Justice Department. “But we’re good at organizing, and we have a lot of useful structures for it, so that was useful to her.” Today, Mormons head Eagle Forum chapters across the West, including California, Arizona and Nevada, as well as Utah. Bridge-building between Mormons and the conservative movement helps explain the Reagan administration’s push to hire many Mormons into the White House - which further cemented the alliance. That bond continues to lure Mormons to D.C. Ruzicka, for one, continued in the political footsteps of her mother, arriving in Washington in her mid-20s to lead a nonprofit that promotes safe haven laws, which allow young mothers to legally abandon young children at fire stations. Beyond hot-button social issues, U.S. Rep. Chaffetz says the Mormon faith engenders support for limited government. “The church is very adamant about personal responsibility, and for people to voluntarily participate in service,” the Utah Republican says. “There’s this feeling that service is not something that should be mandated by government.” The LDS Church, for its part, insists it is politically neutral and that it avoids pressuring Mormon elected officials to tow a church line. “The church’s mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, not to elect politicians,” the church’s website says. Mormon experts say the church’s support for a relatively strict separation of church and state is born of the U.S. government’s refusal to help Mormons in the face of early persecution. And after being accused of setting up a rival government around the turn of the last century, the church is loath to be seen giving marching orders to LDS politicians. The church did, however, play a leading role in passing Prop 8, California’s gay marriage ban, in 2008. Church officials called it a moral cause, not a political one. Plenty of critics disagree. But neither Mormon bishops nor church officials are known to lead the kind of church-based legislative lobbying efforts that Catholic bishops or evangelical leaders do. Mitt Romney himself embodies the reluctance of Mormon politicians to connect their religion and their public policy positions, in contrast to politicians of other faiths. That reluctance also appears to be born of anxiety over Americans’ lingering questions and doubts about Mormonism. When Pew asked Americans last year what word they associated with the Mormon faith, the most common response was “cult.” In recent weeks, Romney’s newfound position as the presumptive Republican presidential nominee has produced a mix of excitement and worry among Mormons. That’s especially true in Washington, where politically savvy Latter-day Saints send out frequent e-mail round-ups of Mormon media coverage to their LDS networks. “A lot of us know it’s ultimately a good thing, but it’s hard to feel like it’s a good thing because so much of the publicity is about things you wouldn’t talk about in polite company, like my underwear,” says Pederson, referring to the enduring fascination with Mormon undergarments. Like many conservatives, Pederson is suspicious of Romney. “I don’t like his waffling, to put it gently, on life and family issues,” she says. “But if it comes down to Romney versus Obama, hand me the pom-poms. I’ll be president of the Romney-Is-the-Best-We-Can-Come-Up-With-for-President Club.” For now, Pederson is working with the National Right to Life Committee’s political action committee to raise money for the Romney effort, even as she makes up her mind about how actively she wants to promote his candidacy. Some of her calculus is about weighing political reality against her conservative idealism. And some of it is about her next professional move. It’s a very Washington place to be. – Video by CNN photojournalist Jeremy Moorhead Dan Gilgoff - CNN Belief Blog Co-Editor Filed under: 2012 Election • Barack Obama • Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints • DC • Jon Huntsman • Mitt Romney • Mormonism • Politics Next entry »Across country, black pastors weigh in on Obama's same-sex marriage support « Previous entryText of Mitt Romney's commencement address at Liberty University soundoff (3,419 Responses) Jarvis Dumm Interested in Polygamy Dating?

Washington DC a mormon stronghold????? Emmm...not so much. Not only does Washington DC allow gay marriage, but Obama WON Washington DC last night. LOL! So much for the propaganda machine that is CNN, huh? So, the past few months, I've been really concerned about a mormon in the White House because of my background with the mormon church (7th generation...ancestor even mentioned in the D&C) and how horrible I know it to truly be. No more of CNN (which obviously supported Romnesia, the big hairy ape). No more fighting with a bunch of mormon propagandists. All that matters is that not only did creepy conservatrolls LOSE last night, but the mormon church lost the money it donated to stop gay marriage in Maryland and Maine. LOL! ON top of that, how many members are going to be questioning their religion now? After all that fasting and prayer, surely God would have seen the light and created a win for Romney, the chosen of the mormons and God himself. LOL! NOT! So, no more of these boards. And NO more of cnn. In 4 years mormonism will be a skeleton of what it was. All of the things that have come out about it's REAL temple beliefs and godhood, etc, will hit Americans and they will put it up there with the likes of David Koresh. Younger generations are already leaving the church (I've been able to help 7 out of 13 of my nieces and nephews see the light of freedom) and as technology takes over, even more will leave behind the dinosaur led by a bunch of smelly, old, pathetic men, that is the mormon church.

I think our disagreements on this issue are rooted in fundamentally different views of human beings, the role of government, and individual liberty. I am merely curious to see how you would react to the contents of the book, which is called .Regarding all those links, I had already seen the first one, and I took a look at the others, but I don't think they prove anything. Correlation is not causation, and as the first article points out, there are all sorts of potential reasons why those 10 countries experience the success they do, and besides, judging happiness is sticky business to start with. For me, the objective is not to get the US onto a 10 happiest countries list but to allow people to make their own choices. The freedom to choose comes with consequences and the potential that people might choose to do things that don't bring them happiness. It's unfortunate that people make choices that don't bring them happiness, but I don't believe it's the role of the government to help people make better choices. If we need to have a federal government at all, it should be there to provide for the common defense. Otherwise, it should leave us alone. Every other service can easily be provided by the private sector at a much lower cost, and at much higher quality. Just look at the expense and low quality of almost all government run monopolies such as public schools, the post office, the banking system, etc..You may feel that the ends justify the means, that is, that forcing people to give up a portion of their income, provides greater happiness for society. Even if that could be proven to be true, I'd still be against it, because I think taxation is morally wrong. I see no difference between taxation and theft, except that thieves have the decency to not try and convince you that they're actually doing you a favor. Likewise with unnios, for the sake of argument let's say they lead to a happier society. For me, that still doesn't justify the labor laws we have in our country. Do I believe workers should be free to organize? Absolutely. But I also believe companies should have the right to fire any worker they discover has joined a union. If a company thinks there's a way to work out a win-win situation such that the workers get their union and the company finds a way to work with the union in such a way that it's actually a benefit for the company too, then great. But for the government to step in and tell a company they can't fire a worker for joining a union, or to tell an employee that if 50% of his co-workers vote for a union then he has to join it too, even if he doesn't want to, is, in my opinion, a gross miscarriage of the role of government and interferes with the rights of the employer and employee to negotiate on their own terms, without interference, and I think that is morally wrong for our government to have and exercise such power.I also believe that in the long-run freedom produces the best results, but that is a difficult thing to prove. Despite the contrast between the results of the Soviet and American experiments there are people who still think socialism is the way to go, and that the only reason it didn't work in the USSR is because the wrong people were in charge. I think that's ridiculous, and that socialism has failed and will ultimately fail everywhere it's tried, but intelligent people can be found on both sides of this issue, and likely always will be found on either side.Why did you put that bit about the Book of Abraham in there?

I am fourth generation mormon and my family has always tried to live the teachings of Jesus Christ. There have been no divorces for 4 generations. We are not rich, but I would say prosperous with no unemployment. Some of the 5th generation have diverged from the gospel and among those divorce, unemployment, drugs, and general unhappiness and misery is rampant. I can see in my own family the fruits of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I am not saying the mormon religion is the only church that teaches the gospel. I am sure that there are families among other religions that have experienced the same fruits, but I am saying that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints does teach the gospel of Jesus Christ and anyone who adheres to those teachings will see fruits of happiness, prosperity, peace and very probably good health as a result.

Cosmetic surgery media, marketing and advertising requires more regulation Title: Cosmetic surgery media, marketing and advertising requires more regulation Nelson, Katelyn Christine The marketing, advertising and mediation of cosmetic surgery in the United States has become a controversial issue. The debate began with the normalization of unrealistic beauty images due to excessive exposure to cosmetic surgery in the media and consumer self-diagnosis. Surgeons use aggressive marketing tactics for preventative procedures and prey on insecurities. Moreover, the proliferation of cosmetic surgery in the media in conjunction with misleading advertising has created an environment where consumers have false and unrealistic expectations and perceptions of cosmetic surgery. This article discusses the history of cosmetic surgery, marketing and advertising tactics as well as mediated theory to understand the ethical issues involved in elective surgery. The goal of this paper is to suggest regulation and protection for vulnerable audiences. Download File: NELSON-MASTERS-REPORT.pdf Size: 448.6Kb

Bernanke told the list to the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission when they asked him what books or academic papers people should read to understand the crisis. The list comes to RepoWatch readers from the Wall Street Journal’s Deal Journal, which published it September 2. For more details, see the Deal Journal. 1. “The Panic of 2007,” by Yale economist Gary Gorton. This paper was delivered at the August 2008 Jackson Hole Economic Summit. 2. “Deciphering the Liquidity and Credit Crunch 2007-08” by Princeton economist Markus Brunnermeier, published in the Journal of Economic Perspectives in 2009. Bernanke singled out the paper’s focus on the problems in the repo market, according to the Deal Journal. 3. “CoVaR,” by Brunnermeier and New York Fed vice president Tobias Adrian. This paper offers a way to measure a firm’s systemic risks. 4. “Lords of Finance,” a 2009 non-fiction book by Liaquat Ahamed that tells the story of the world’s leading central bankers in the period leading up to the Great Depression.

Bookmark the permalink. ← European repo lenders accept Spanish bonds as collateral Watching for the next bubble From the editor To understand the financial crisis of 2007-2008, and to prevent the next one, you must understand the repurchase market. Consider This The financial crisis was not caused by homeowners borrowing too much money. It was caused by giant financial institutions borrowing too much money, much of it from each other on the repurchase (repo) market. This matters, because we can't prevent the next crisis by fixing mortgages. We have to fix repos. Quotes in the News "I hope we get through this week. But I think it’s far from clear, and we were taking a bet, and I hope in the future we don’t have to be in situations where we’re taking bets. It does highlight the need to look at the tri-party repo market, look at the money market fund industry, and look at how they’re financing. " Eric Rosengren, President, Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, September 16, 2008 (FOMC transcripts released Feb. 21, 2014) "The 2007–2008 financial crisis was driven more by disruptions in the Securities Financing Transactions markets than by disruptions in the over-the-counter derivative markets." -- Federal Reserve Governor Daniel K. Tarullo, November 22, 2013. “The money market fund industry and the repo market is really the major fault line that goes right under Wall Street." -- Dennis Kelleher, CEO of Better Markets, Bankrate.com, July 24, 2013. Repo: "The silently beating heart of the market." -- Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee, July 2013. Under Basel capital rules, "repos among financial institutions are treated as extremely low risk, even though excessive reliance on repo funding almost brought our system down. How dumb is that?" -- Sheila Bair, chair of the Systemic Risk Council and 2006-2011 Chair of the FDIC, June 9, 2013. "The trigger for the acute phase of the financial crisis was the rapid unwinding of large amounts of short-term wholesale funding that had been made available to highly leveraged and/or maturity-transforming financial firms." --Janet Yellen, Vice Chair Federal Reserve, June 2, 2013. "The repo market wasn’t just a part of the meltdown. It was the meltdown." --David Weidner, Wall Street Journal, May 29, 2013. "While regulated banks have faced far tighter oversight following the financial crisis, the shadow-banking market remains a source of potential instability. It is worth remembering that runs here, rather than traditional bank runs, were a cause of the crisis and led to seizures of credit markets." -- David Reilly, Wall Street Journal, February 19, 2013. "It is worth recalling that the trigger for the acute phase of the financial crisis was the rapid unwinding of large amounts of short-term funding that had been made available to firms not subject to consolidated prudential supervision." -- Daniel K. Tarullo, Federal Reserve Governor, February 14, 2013. "I don’t think we should be comfortable with a situation in which extensive maturity transformation continues to take place without the appropriate safeguards against runs and fire sales." -- William C. Dudley, President, Federal Reserve Bank of New York, February 1, 2013. "The global financial crisis that began in the United States in the summer of 2007 was triggered by a bank run, just like those of 1837, 1857, 1873, 1893, 1907, and 1933 ... and it has had devastating effects that continue today." -- Gary B Gorton, Yale University, "Misunderstanding Financial Crises," November 2012. "Currently, the drivers of systemic risk remain largely intact, and shadow banking appears poised to grow considerably, and dangerously, if it does not acquire the necessary market discipline to shape risk-taking activities." -- From "Understanding the Risks Inherent in Shadow Banking" by David Luttrell, Harvey Rosenblum, and Jackson Thies, Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, November 2012. "The essence of shadow banking is to make loans, securitize them, sell the securities and insure them, and actively trade all the financial assets involved. In effect, traditional relationship banking is replaced by a collateralized market system with the repo market at its heart." --William R. White, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, August 2012. "What was different about this crisis was that the institutional structure was different. It wasn't banks and depositors. It was broker-dealers and repo markets. It was money market funds and commercial paper ...," --Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, March 27, 2012. "The Federal Reserve was forced to take extraordinary policy actions beginning in 2008 to counteract the effect of (tri-party repo) flaws and avert a collapse of confidence in this critical financing market. These structural weaknesses are unacceptable and must be eliminated." --Federal Reserve Bank of New York, February 15, 2012. "Despite the Dodd-Frank financial reform bill and its directive to address this issue, the problem of bank runs in the shadow system -- a key factor in the financial sector collapse -- has not yet been solved." --Mark Thoma, Professor of Economics, University of Oregon, February 13, 2012. "Repurchase agreements (repo) are the largest part of the 'shadow' banking system: a network of demand deposits that, despite its size, maturity, and general stability, remains vulnerable to investor panic." --Jeff Penney, senior advisor, McKinsey & Company, June 2011. "What happened in September 2008 was a kind of bank run. Creditors lost confidence in the ability of investment banks to redeem short-term loans, leading to a precipitous decline in lending in the repurchase agreements (repo) market." --Robert E. Lucas, Jr., Nancy L. Stokey, visiting scholars, Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, May 2011. "The really interesting thing that happened in September 2008 was the worldwide panic in the banking system – financial institutions running on each other behind the scenes." –-David Warsh, economic journalist, Feb. 6, 2011. "Since repo financing was the basis of most of the leveraged positions of the shadow banks, a large part of the run occurred in the repo market." --Viral V. Acharya and T. Sabri Öncü, professors, Stern School of Business, New York University, 2011. "Housing policies alone, however, would not have led to the near insolvency of many banks and to the credit-market freeze. The key to these effects was the excessive leverage that pervaded, and continues to pervade, the financial industry." --Anat R. Admati, Professor of Finance and Economics, Graduate School of Business, Stanford University. January 30, 2011. "Without some repo reform, we are at risk for another panic." --Gary B. Gorton, Professor of Management and Finance, Yale School of Management, November 16, 2010. "While it may be well and good for the Dodd-Frank Act to demand more oversight of mortgages and derivatives, that won’t stop the next run on repo if lenders panic over a different kind of collateral or hear a false rumor and panic for no reason at all." --About Repo, RepoWatch. The repurchase market is “the deepest, darkest least noticed part of the market’s plumbing.” --Bethany McLean and Joe Nocera, "All the Devils are Here," November 2010. “So far, all of this has gone largely unnoticed by the public, and that gives shadow banks the opportunity to make their case unopposed." --Mark Thoma, Professor of Economics, University of Oregon, September 28, 2010. "... the structure of the tri-party market is so closely entwined that it creates a contagion risk as bad as anything seen in the derivatives world." --Gillian Tett, U.S. managing editor, Financial Times, September 23, 2010. "The collapse in CDO valuations and the resulting inability to use CDOs as collateral for repo was a major, if not the major, cause of dealer illiquidity and insolvency which resulted in massive bailouts and backdoor subsidies." --Yves Smith, Naked Capitalism blog, August 20, 2010. "Repo has a flaw: It is vulnerable to panic, that is, 'depositors' may 'withdraw' their money at any time, forcing the system into massive deleveraging. We saw this over and over again with demand deposits in all of U.S. history prior to deposit insurance. This problem has not been addressed by the Dodd-Frank legislation. So, it could happen again. The next shock could be a sovereign default, a crash of some important market -- who knows what it might be?" --Gary B. Gorton, Professor of Management and Finance, Yale School of Management, August 14, 2010. "Leaving the repo market as it currently functions is not an alternative; if this market is not reformed and their participants not made to internatlize the liquidity risk, runs on the repo will occur in the future, potentially leading to systemic crises." --T. Sabri Öncü and Viral V. Acharya, professors, Stern School of Business, New York University, July 16, 2010. "It is disconcerting that that the Act is completely silent about how to reform one of the systemically most important corners of Wall Street: the repo market, whose size based on daily amount outstanding now surpasses the total GDP of China and Germany combined." --Viral V. Acharya and T. Sabri Öncü, professors, Stern School of Business, New York University, July 16, 2010. "... it is imperative for policymakers to assess whether shadow banks should have access to official backstops permanently, or be regulated out of existence." --Zoltan Pozsar, Tobias Adrian, Adam Ashcraft, Hayley Boesky, Federal Reserve Bank of New York, July 2010. “The potential for the tri-party repo market to cease functioning, with impacts to securities firms, money market mutual funds, major banks involved in payment and settlements globally, and even to the liquidity of the U.S. Treasury and Agency securities, has been cited by policy makers as a key concern behind aggressive interventions to contain the financial crisis.” --Task Force on Tri-Party Repo Infrastructure, May 17, 2010. "Banks should have learned by now it's dangerous to rely on overnight lending." --Allan Meltzer, Professor of Political Economy, Carnegie Mellon University, March 28, 2010. "This banking system ‐‐ repo based on securitization ‐‐ is a genuine banking system, as large as the traditional, regulated banking system. It is of critical importance to the economy." --Gary B. Gorton, Professor of Management and Finance, Yale School of Management, February 20, 2010. "I think we were primarily focused on the potential collapse of the short-term funding markets, particularly the overnight repo markets and tri-party repo markets, which would have created a contagion to many other firms."--Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, November 17, 2009. "The best thing to do with the shattered Humpty-Dumpty of mortgage securitization would be to toss the broken pieces into the garbage." --Arnold Kling, Mercatus Center, George Mason University, September 28, 2009. "Given its size and importance, it is surprising that repo has such a low profile; for example, there is little discussion of it in the financial press." -- Moorad Choudhry, Head of Treasury, Europe Arab Bank plc, London, "The REPO Handbook," September 2009. “Our regulators allowed the proprietary trading departments at investment banks to become hedge funds in disguise, using the ‘repo’ system - one of the most extreme credit-granting systems ever devised. The amount of leverage was utterly awesome.” --Charles T. Munger, chairman Berkshire Hathaway Inc., Spring 2009. "Repo borrowing is now by far and away the most important form of short-term finance in modern financial markets.." -- Alistair Milne, Reader in Banking and Finance, City University, London, "The Fall of the House of Credit," March 2009. “This helps explain how a relatively small quantity of risky assets was able to undermine the confidence of investors and other market participants across a much broader range of assets and markets.” --Timothy Geithner, president, Federal Reserve Bank of New York, June 9, 2008. "Until recently, short-term repos had always been regarded as virtually risk-free instruments." Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke, May 13, 2008. "The repo market is as complex as it is crucial. It is built upon transactions that are highly interrelated. A collapse of one institution involved in repo transactions could start a chain reaction, putting at risk hundreds of billions of dollars and threatening the solvency of many additional institutions." --U.S. Senate report, 1983. "Because of this widespread use in very large amounts, it is important that the repo market be protected from unnecessary disruption." --Paul A. Volcker, Chairman, Federal Reserve Board, September 29, 1982, "With a repo loan, financial institutions could make or buy more home loans, to pool and produce more securities, to use as collateral for more repo loans. It was a neat, self-sustaining cycle of profitability and a serious growth machine." --About Repo, RepoWatch. "Surprisingly, financial institutions that said they used securitization to offload risk had actually done just the opposite. Instead, it was the repo lenders who had no skin in the game." --About Repo, RepoWatch. "Repo, then, was the main way that defaults in the housing market became a full blown credit panic. It was the key transmitter that carried the shock wave from the defaulting homeowner through the canyons of Wall Street to the American taxpayer." --About Repo, RepoWatch. "In the savings and loan days, we called it Cash for Trash. In those days, thrifts lent borrowers more money than they needed and required the borrower to use it to buy a troubled property on the thrift’s books. Today, banks make repo loans to borrowers who use the money to buy troubled mortgage securities on the banks’ books, and then they use the troubled securities to collateralize the original repo loan from the bank." --Inside Jobs, RepoWatch.

Planning Commission continues Rolling Greens discussion February 22, 2013 By SHAUN KIRBY skirby@ricentral.com Previous iterations of the Rolling Greens mixed use development, such as the one above from August 23, 2012, have been debated by the public and the Planning Commission in terms of marketability and disturbance to the surrounding neighborhoods and businesses. (Photo courtesy North Kingstown Planning Department) NORTH KINGSTOWN — On Tuesday evening, the Planning Commission met to discuss continued efforts to conceptualize an acceptable layout for the future retail/residential development at Rolling Greens on Route 102. The development’s architect, Donald Powers of Union Architects in Providence, presented five alternative layouts which could offer a workable area that is inviting to both the consumer public and those living within the development. On numerous occasions during the fall, public hearings were held to discuss the potential impacts of a mixed use development on Route 102 in front of Rolling Greens golf course. On Dec. 18, 2012, the Planning Commission voted to approve the development, finding that it satisfied the town’s Compact Village Development (CDV) requirements and was consistent with North Kingstown’s Comprehensive Plan. One of the stipulations of the commission’s approval and recommendation to the town council was that five alternative layouts were provided by Powers and the applicants, a group of realty and property stakeholders. Those designs were viewed on Tuesday evening. “We didn’t think it made sense to have the applicant engineer every one of these designs, but to get a grasp of the preferred design by the Planning Commission and go ahead to engineer that design,” said Director of Planning Jon Reiner. “The applicants and Mr. Powers are looking at the general orientation of buildings and are not as concerned with the overall footage of the buildings.” Powers first highlighted the impacts and improvements of his latest design, as well as providing the sketches of previous iterations that date back to the development’s original conceptualization in 2010. The current concept has two large retail buildings facing Route 102, identified as a potential pharmacy and bank. As the development retreats farther back towards the Rolling Green Golf Course, Powers has designed a compact space filled with potential buildings for a restaurant, neighborhood businesses, and apartments. “Over the course of this project, there have been 15 iterations on the way the retail might work,” said Powers. “We looked at [the design] and asked what the reality is for retail, and not all of it will be auto-centric that needs to be visible from Route 102.” “If I were to critique earlier schemes, we need to create a ping pong effect, where people need to see all the destinations of where they want to go,” he added. “In retrospect, it has been a good progression to get to this, this, although there are specifics that could or would change.” Commission members made comments that the current concept presented by Powers looks similar to that of South County Commons along Route 1 in South Kingstown, which has an Applebee’s in the front and neighborhood businesses farther behind, as well as apartments to the right of the main entrance. Both Powers and commission members emphasized that more work will need to be done on the design prior to the preliminary stage for site engineering, and the conversation Tuesday evening included a debate about how to best market potential businesses within the development. “You have to consider the marketability and the fact of whether somebody wants to be in there and what you can do to convince them to come to this place,” said Commission member Harriett Powell. “It feels more like a village concept, where you have people drawing from the neighborhood,” said Jeffrey S. Michaelson. Members also debated about the particular exterior designs of buildings and how they might affect the surrounding neighborhoods, but Reiner cautioned that the project will have a set of design standards laid out by the Planning Commission within which the applicants must work. “In applications like this, unless they have a tenant, we approve the general site layout, and the applicants have to come back to the Planning Commission to approve the actual building layout,” said Reiner. Town Council member Kevin Maloney was on hand to express his opinion on the latest design. “I like what is going on, although I would truly rather see the thing flipped and see the pharmacy in the back,” said Maloney. “It is the same reason you put the milk in the back of the store, so that people get to everything else.” “What bothers me the most about it is the two buildings of the highest traffic would be right up front and clog up all the traffic flow,” he continued. “I’d rather see all the parking work towards the back.” The Planning Commission will continue its dialogue with the applicants and Powers, as well as with the town council, until a final design layout is recommended for approval.

Art History Major Petit Palais, Paris The goal of Art History is to connect historical events and human experiences with material culture. The major begins with a required 2-semester examination of the European-American visual tradition and an introduction to archaeology, moves to period-specific inquiries, advances to specialized lecture/discussion classes within periods, and culminates in a senior seminar. This sequence of courses allows students to develop their mastery of subject matter -- objects, makers, and ideas -- while at the same time building their skills at interpreting, assessing, and explaining that subject matter and the methodologies for its study. Students planning to go on to graduate school are urged to study at least one foreign language (preferably German) through the intermediate level. A major in art history requires the completion of ten units. These include: ARTH 150ARTH 151ARTH 2183 200-level Art History classes, 1 from each of the following areas: Ancient; Medieval, Renaissance or Baroque; 18th/19th/20th century European or American Art2 Art History classes at or above the 300 levelARTH 4561 electiveElectives may come from art history or from courses in another major that have been approved by the art history faculty. One INQ or Honors course taught by ARTH faculty may count towards the ARTH major with approval of the art history faculty, who will determine the area of the major into which the course falls. To declare the art history major, please consult with one of the art history professors. Art History Minor The minor in Art History is designed to give students a general experience of both the content and methods of art history. A minor in art history requires the completion of six units, including: 2 of the following: ARTH 150 ARTH 151 ARTH 2182 200-level Art History classes, from different areas: Ancient; Medieval, Renaissance or Baroque; 18th/19th/20th century European or American Art1 Art History class at or above the 300 level1 electiveElectives may come from art history or from courses in another major that have been approved by the art history faculty.

hide Bucki case: Investigators searching for witnesses to a fire Tuesday, June 18, 2013 1:35 p.m. CDT Mark Bucki MERRILL, WI (WSAU-Wheeler News) - Lincoln County investigators are looking for possible witnesses to an early morning fire at a murder scene. 49-year-old Mark Bucki is charged with the death of his estranged wife Anita. Bucki has admitted setting a fire outside of his Wegner Road home to destroy his wife’s belongings, but investigators believe the time Bucki says he started the fire isn’t accurate. That fire may have been in a burning barrel. Bucki burned a large piece of carpeting along with other items on April 26th. Investigators are asking anyone that saw a fire outside of the Bucki home early that day to contact them at the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department. Authorities have not said if the fire is connected to Anita’s death, or just connected to destroying evidence after she died. Her body wasn’t found until a couple weeks after she was discovered missing. Mark Bucki is due back in court June 27th on charges of homicide, hiding a corpse, and strangulation-and-suffocation.

Rollins in the News News Center Home Theatre as ServiceMarch 15, 2012EmailPrintShare Chelsea Swearingen '12, Taylor Sorrel '12, and Alexis Riley '12 lead a theatre workshop for Fern Creek Elementary students. (Photo by Samantha Jackson ’13) Associate Professor of Theatre David Charles is no stranger to improvisation. For several years, he has served as both director and regular performer at SAK Comedy Lab, a local improvisational theatre venue. Improv has sharpened his wit and strengthened his ability to think on his feet—skills that came in handy when he recently redesigned his Theatre for Social Change course to include a community engagement (CE) component. “The course introduces and explores modern theatrical practices that facilitate heightened social awareness and/or change,” Charles explained. “But in order for it to have a CE designation, the course needed to be rebuilt from the ground up and earnestly balance the pedagogy while meeting the needs of both our students and our community partner.” Charles decided to partner with Fern Creek Elementary, with which Rollins already has a longstanding relationship, and he connected with two fifth grade classes that each have 18 to 20 students. “We go there on Mondays during our regular class time and have started by teaching the students basic improvisational skills, which in the process, teach interpersonal communications skills such as listening.” Charles and his class will visit Fern Creek eight times over the course of the semester. After they move on from improv, Charles will introduce devised theatre, a form of drama that encourages participants to create short plays based on the students’ stories. These plays, which tackle issues such as bullying and exclusion, are performed collaboratively with the Rollins and Fern Creek students. In the third unit, he will have the students do playback theatre, which requires the participants to hear a story and then spontaneously perform it as a play. For theater major Chelsea Swearingen ’12, the experience has been rewarding and somewhat surprising. “I am very much enjoying this class because I can see the effect of the work we've done on campus in preparation for our time with the Fern Creek students,” she said. “It is surprising and extremely encouraging that they are so enthusiastic about our material.” “It’s exciting, but it’s also nerve-wracking,” said Charles, who believes strongly that all theatre is an act of service. “Adding the CE component was a natural extension of the course. Going into this program with Fern Creek is giving our students the opportunity to give back to the community. It’s amazing how much pride my students already have about what they do."

We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love. --Mother Teresa There is a girl at my work that I find very attractive Visitor's Question from a 21-30 year old MaleHi. There is a girl at my work that I find very attractive - both in personality and in looks. She works in a different department (tho quite nearby), so I see her most days yet I have only had a few short convos with her, however I cannot help but be attracted by her kind, gentle manner, plus she is *SO* pretty! I checked with a trusted colleague to make sure she is single, and I got an enthusiatic 'yes', so today I went for it and asked her out for a drink. I know all about the whole acting cool thing, and approaching her in a confident and sincere way - these things I did. And she said yes! However, despite my confident demeanour, I wasn't ready for the 'yes', and didn't suggest a time and place, although we did chat about stuff on the way back to our offices. We are both very busy at work and as such did not get chance to speak again today - it would have been difficult with all our colleagues about. I'm really not used to this kind of situation, and yet I didn't feel nervous or anything, and I don't want to take this too seriously since this is only the preliminary bit! My question is this: What do I say when I return to work after the weekend? I hope I haven't put her off by not having a definite plan when she agreed to go out. I have to be able to remind her about the 'date' without seeming pushy... Many thanks and good luck to all.RomanceClass.com AdviceShe said YES so she's waiting on you to suggest something! So do it! Monday morning, stop by her desk and say, "hey, there's this new club opening on 54th street. How about we go there tonight?" And she'll say YES. Just go for it!
