Cigna Named 2013 Red Hat Innovator of the Year
July 15, 2013Cigna recognized for successful Infrastructure-as-a-Service transformation project built with Red Hat solutions
BLOOMFIELD, Conn. and RALEIGH, N.C. – July 15, 2013 – Cigna (NYSE: CI), a global health service company that offers health, life, accident, dental, and disability insurance, and related health services, and Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced that Cigna has been named the 2013 Red Hat Innovator of the Year. Cigna was recognized during a ceremony at Red Hat Summit for its innovative use of Red Hat technologies to revitalize the company's IT infrastructure and solidify the company's position as a leader in the health care industry. Cigna also won an Innovation Award in the "Outstanding Open Source Architecture" category.
Cigna deployed Red Hat technologies as part of a company-wide business transformation project to evolve its internal Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) strategy. By taking a services approach to IT, and by utilizing Red Hat's enterprise Linux, middleware, and virtualization solutions, Cigna successfully designed and created a self-service provisioning system that infuses new life and agility into its IT, development, and business operations.
Key components of Cigna's transformation initiative include Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat JBoss Web Server, Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, and Red Hat Network Satellite. Using these technologies, Cigna created the Cigna Private Cloud, which renders data and applications as services that can be delivered to internal customers faster. With barriers between development and infrastructure groups removed, Cigna's teams are well-aligned and able to deliver business applications to customers faster, while carving out costs from the provisioning process to boost Cigna's bottom line.
Now in its seventh year, the annual Red Hat Innovation Awards program recognizes customers, partners, and communities for their outstanding use, innovation, and extension of Red Hat technology. Winners are named across seven categories, and from those recipients, the Red Hat Innovator of the Year is selected by the community via online voting.

twas ok
The characters were so jumpy. its like they were all on crack. every half a second they would bounce up and down, it was very annoying, but besides that the animation was ok. the art was pretty average. i didnt like the way that the hair was drawn. way too flat, and the way you drew the woman was awful. the sound was really poor quality, but i dont blame you for that, just get a new microphone. but you seem to be pretty new to flash, so im gonna be easier on you with the rating.

A Precocious Autobiography (Masterplots II: Juvenile & Young Adult Biography Series)
Form and Content
In A Precocious Autobiography, the poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko gives an account of the first three decades of his life—hence, the title "precocious"—before most people, especially artistic creators, go through the most productive part of their life. The reason for the poet's premature effort is undoubtedly his conviction that the experiences of his early years, coupled with important changes in the life of his country (the death of Joseph Stalin and the emergence of the postwar generation), are worth telling. He begins with the simple fact that both of his grandfathers were accused as "traitors" and "spies" and vanished in the concentration camps. His paternal great-grandfather was deported from Ukraine to Siberia for rebelling against his landlord. His maternal grandfather was born in Latvia. By stating that "revolution was the religion" of his family, Yevtushenko underscores the tragedy of the demise of his grandfathers, who were old revolutionaries.
The incompatibility of Yevtushenko's parents—who met as students at the Geological Institute, married, but soon divorced—was another decisive factor in the poet's life. He spent his childhood torn in his loyalty to his parents. This, along with the war, made his earliest years difficult, although he spent some happy days in his native Siberia, close to nature and to the simple, hardworking people. Yevtushenko grew up on the streets, fighting with his peers, doing poorly in school, and at times being expelled for speaking the truth, a habit that he inherited from his Siberian ancestors.
Yevtushenko discovered early that he liked writing poetry despite receiving bad marks in grammar. He also had a desire to become a professional soccer player. He published his first poem in the magazine Soviet Sport and celebrated it by getting thoroughly drunk. The next day, he had the first trial as a goalie for a soccer team, but, because of his hangover, he saw two balls coming at him at the same time and failed the test; this failure prompted Yevtushenko's decision to stay with poetry. His rise as a poet was slow but steady. At first, he wrote all kinds of inferior, impersonal verses, but later he turned to writing about his own feelings and thoughts.
Yevtushenko also became increasingly aware of the social problems besetting his society, and he began to voice his concerns. Stalin's death in 1953 was a turning point in his thinking. He was appalled at the authorities' insensitivity, allowing many people to be crushed to death during the commotion at the funeral, and saw for the first time the inhumane nature of the government. He decided to speak the truth. As more and more of his books were published and as he read his poems before thousands at poetry gatherings, he became one of the "angry young men" and a spokes-person for his generation, a role that he continued to play.
Yevtushenko's autobiography is more than an account of his early years. Even though the book...

Biography (Censorship (Ready Reference series))
Yevtushenko gained national stature in the Soviet Union in the early 1960's through his popular poetry readings to large audiences. His fame permitted him to travel to the West, enhancing his reputation. Many of his poems praised Soviet economic achievements, criticized United States involvement in the Vietnam War, and portrayed the Soviet Union as a peaceful nation. However, his poetry also criticized Russian anti-Semitism and the dangers of latent Stalinism within the communist leadership.
After unauthorized Western publication of Yevtushenko's outspoken and self-assured autobiography in 1963, Soviet authorities temporarily forbade him to travel out of the country. His independent voice was heard during the Leonid Brezhnev era, as when he openly supported Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn when the latter was deported in 1974—despite public and official condemnation for his temerity in speaking out against Soviet censorship.
The Mikhail Gorbachev years raised Yevtushenko's hopes for genuine reform. Following the Soviet Union's dissolution in 1991, he urged Russians to break with the old servile obedience to those in power. His initial support of Boris Yeltsin as a reformer later diminished. Several of his books in the 1990's have focused more on the challenges facing Russia's population in the post-Soviet period. Yet optimism is characteristic of Yevtushenko's poetry and life.
Biography (Critical Survey of Poetry: World Poets)
Yevgeny Alexandrovich Yevtushenko was born in Stantsiya Zima, Siberia, in the Soviet Union, on July 18, 1933, of mixed Ukrainian, Russian, and Tartar blood. In his famous poem "Stantsia Zima" ("Zima Junction"), he describes in detail this remote Siberian town on the Trans-Siberian Railway about two hundred miles from Irkutsk and not far from Lake Baikal. Both his grandfathers were victims of Stalinist purges, a fact that helps to explain Yevtushenko's attitude toward Stalin. Yevtushenko's father was a geologist, and between the ages of fifteen and seventeen, young Zhenya, as he was familiarly called, accompanied his father on geological expeditions to Kazakhstan and the Altai. His mother, of modest peasant stock, worked as a singer in Moscow during and after the war. His parents' careers gave Yevtushenko a broad appreciation for common working people and the day-to-day struggles to survive in an authoritarian state.
As a young boy in Moscow, Yevtushenko began to read Russian and foreign classics, familiarizing himself not only with the works of Leo Tolstoy and Anton Chekhov, but also those of Alexandre Dumas, père, Gustave Flaubert, Friedrich Schiller, Honoré de Balzac, Dante, and many other foreign authors. In 1941, he was evacuated to Zima Junction, where he developed his love for the Siberian taiga and his impassioned opposition to war. When his parents were separated in 1944, he returned to Moscow with his mother. His education from 1944 to 1948 was very desultory, and when he was expelled from school at fifteen, he ran off to join his father in Siberia for two years.
Among Yevtushenko's many interests was sports, and it was not accidental that his first verses were published in a sports magazine. He met the editors Tarasov and Barlas, who became his first mentors, although his continued interest in reading led him to other models, especially Ernest Hemingway, Aleksandr Blok, Sergei Esenin, andVladimir Mayakovsky. Yevtushenko wrote in the style of the times, paying lip service to Stalin until the latter's death in 1953.
The year 1953 was a turning point in Yevtushenko's life, for along with many other Russians,...

Biography (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
Yevgeny Alexandrovich Yevtushenko (yehv-tew-SHEHNG-koh) was born on July 18, 1933, at Stantsiya Zima, a small Siberian junction near Lake Baikal, in the Soviet Union (now in Russia). Some of his ancestors had been deported to Siberia from Ukraine at the end of the nineteenth century for political activities. Other relatives came from Latvia. "Revolution was the religion in our family," Yevtushenko says in his autobiography. He spent his childhood amid the serene beauty of Siberian nature but also troubled by political uncertainty: Both of his grandfathers were swept away during the purges ordered by Joseph Stalin in the late 1930's. His parents studied geology in Moscow, married, and were divorced before World War II. His mother took Yevtushenko to Moscow, but he was evacuated to Zima during the war, where he spent three years.
Back in Moscow, growing up in postwar hardship, he was belligerent and was even thrown out of one school. He surmounted the difficulties, however, and even began to write poetry. For a while, he joined his father in a geological expedition in Kazakhstan and later almost became a professional soccer player. After publishing his first poem in 1949, appropriately in Soviet Sport, he concentrated on literature and entered the famous Gorky Literary Institute in Moscow. From the beginning of the 1950's, he published his poems with increasing success. The publication of his first book, Razvedchicki gryadushchego (1952; prospectors of the future), decided his fate: He devoted his life to poetry and published numerous books with regularity.
The emotional appeal of his poetry and his innate...

Biography (Magill's Survey of World Literature, Revised Edition)
Yevgeny Yevtushenko started his poetic career in a modern idiom, aware that he was helping to bring something new to Russian poetry and that the torch had been passed to a new generation. As he matured, he became increasingly involved in political matters or matters that he believed deserved personal commitment. In this, he played the traditional role of a Russian poet as the conscience of the nation. At the same time, he never compromised his artistic standards to the point of becoming a spokesman for nonliterary causes, of which he has often been accused. It is indeed his artistic qualities that have made him a leading poet in twentieth century Russian literature.

Biography (Cyclopedia of World Authors, Fourth Revised Edition)
Yevgeny Alexandrovich Yevtushenko (yehv-tew-SHEHNG-koh) is considered, with Andrey Voznesensky, among the best representatives of the generation of Russian poets after Stalin's death. He was born at Zima Station, a small Siberian junction near Lake Baika. His ancestors had been deported from Ukraine for political reasons. He spent his childhood surrounded by beautiful Siberian nature but also amid political uncertainty: Both of his grandfathers were purged in the late 1930's. After World War II his mother took him to Moscow, where he began to write poetry and almost became a professional soccer player. He published his first poem in 1949, then entered the Gorky Literary Institute in Moscow and, after publishing his first...

1600 West Second St. (Tower City Center), Cleveland.
Morton's is a terrific restaurant. In order to appreciate it, it's important to take it in context. It helps if:
• Money is no object.
• The occasion is a big celebration, you're entertaining a big client or you're popping the big question.
• Members of your party possess the vocal range of Jimmy Donovan, or you don't care what anyone is saying.
That's because Morton's is expensive, splashy in its tone and loud as The Q during the last 20 seconds in a tied game. It also features generally excellent steakhouse staples. A plush, jumbo lump-meat crab cake was a thing of delectable beauty. I wished the otherwise-pleasant French onion soup had been decidedly less sweet and that there had been more blue cheese evident in the dressing on the Morton's Salad. The steaks, a fine porterhouse and an especially delicious rib-eye (among the "slightly smaller" steak selections), were exactly what we came for, along with good Lyonnaise potatoes and lightly grilled jumbo asparagus stalks. Expect a wait, especially on a Saturday night. With private parties and an endless crowd, that's part of the price for being part of the scene. -- Joe Crea

During the AIDS crisis, ACT UP's radicalism forced more mainstream gay-rights groups to step up their game.
Starting with my inability to believe Mitch McConnell isn't one of Disney's talking teapots gone rogue, there are plenty of good reasons I don't and shouldn't run the zoo. But if I did, How To Survive A Plague would be mandatory viewing for Occupy Wall Streeters. First-time director David France's new documentary about the 1987-'93 glory years of ACT UP—aka AIDS Coalition To Unleash Power, in case you've forgotten—is a wrenching remembrance of a gay holocaust that's already dimmer than it should be in our memory. The movie is also an exhilarating portrait of human beings discovering what they're capable of in a crisis. But above all, it's the story of how a never too numerous band of obstreperous activists successfully changed public policy.
On that count, France may gild the lily somewhat. Left out is the groundwork laid from 1982 on by the pioneer AIDS lobby, Gay Men's Health Crisis—co-founded by playwright and veteran thorn in complacency's side Larry Kramer, who moved on to help birth ACT UP once the GMHC proved too apolitical for him. The omission slights how ACT UP's radical bent ended up repositioning other pressure groups as the mainstream version of AIDS-era gay activism, an invaluable lesson in how defining the fringe can help redefine the center.
A look at the trailer for Spielberg's upcoming Civil War biopic
Presumably, we all know that speculating about upcoming movies with only their trailers to go by isn't a fit activity for a serious man. But that's how it works in a culture that now operates as a giant racetrack, everywhere from politics to the fall TV season; we all enjoy playing tout. Besides, I can't remember the last time I considered myself a serious man—it's all larks and pratfalls to me now, folks. That's how we grizzled types stay current.
Among big-ticket Oscar contenders, the critic's heart will always be with the overlooked gem.
Every film festival has its own customized vanity. Maybe a mite grimly, Cannes hangs on to its monopoly on glamour. It's harder than it used to be to get big American stars to walk the red carpet—the studios no longer see much PR value in a Cannes premiere for movies they're spending millions to open a week later stateside anyway—but the paparazzi can always make do with Johnny Hallyday in a pinch. Sundance, of course, is still the ideal place for indie filmmakers to attract notice. The New York fest gets by on whatever spurious sense of consequence is implied by its location, location, location. And these days, the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) touts itself as the place where the road to the Oscars begins.
In overdrive ever since future Best Picture winner Slumdog Millionaire's North American premiere here four years ago—The Artist, The King's Speech, and The Hurt Locker all did the same—this particular hype isn't to everyone's liking. It distorts the festival's real calling card for cinephiles: its roster's ecumenism, which is quite possibly unequalled by any competitor's. But Hollywood predictably loves the rabbit's-foot bit. No less predictably, the fest's financial backers, both private and public—along with the likes of L'Oreal and Bell, both Ontario province and the Canadian government chip in with TIFF funding, and how civilized—are said to think the Oscar connection is just grand.
Criterion Collection has released the famed author's not-so-famed entries into the film canon.
Whenever being a writer wasn't enough to suit his churning sense of drama, Norman Mailer (1923-2007) could come up with some awfully wild-assed ways of advertising himself. They ranged from stabbing his second wife in 1960 (she lived and was dissuaded from pressing charges, and he actually got a judge to buy his argument that being labeled crazy would damage his literary reputation) to running for Mayor of New York City nine years later. But those almost seem like banal versions of Walter Mittyism gone disastrously overboard compared to Mailer's notion that he could become a movie director—indeed, a visionary one, since why else bother if you were him?—without so much as a day's apprenticeship.
The article of the day is Jon Chait's piece in New York addressing the question of Hollywood's liberalism. To simplify it a bit, Chait argues that conservatives are basically right in their belief that Hollywood liberals are warping our minds with left-wing propaganda, though they seem to have all but stopped bothering to complain about it. I find it hard to disagree with the first part of Chait's premise: Hollywood is, indeed, dominated by liberals. There are a few high-profile conservatives there (Bruce Willis, Tom Selleck, Clint Eastwood), but they're a small minority. It's not hard to figure out why. Any industry that is made up of creative people is going to be dominated by liberals. Most novelists are liberals too. I'm sure most graphic artists are liberals. There's a whole lot of psychological research demonstrating that liberals tend to be more tolerant of ambiguity, open to experience, and interested in change than conservatives, while conservatives tend to be more conscientious and drawn to hierarchy and order (Prospect alum Chris Mooney details all this in his book The Republican Brain; there's a short version here). In other words, artists are going to be more liberal. Conservatives may not like it, but that's how it is and how it's probably always going to be.
The next question is what values are communicated by the products those liberals produce, and whether we have a problem with them...
Full Metal Jacket—as well as the rest of the director's canon—still fails to impress, even after a quarter-century intermission.
When the 25th anniversary Blu-ray of Stanley Kubrick's 1987 Vietnam War movie, Full Metal Jacket, showed up in the mail last week, I knew what was going to happen. As I glowered at the lavishly packaged thing and it glowered glacially back, my inner Jiminy Critic chirped up with his usual reproach to my anti-Kubrick bias.
"Practically everybody but you knows that Stanley is the greatest thing since sliced eyeballs," he said, making that tired joke about Bunuel's Un Chien Andalou for the gazillionth time. "You chump, did you even notice that 2001: A Space Odyssey just vaulted into sixth place in Sight and Sound's poll of The Greatest Movies Ever Made? And you haven't seen this one since it came out."
If you were a teenager in the '80s like I was, you had to have a complex relationship to jingoistic entertainment. On one hand, the way Cold War competition was grafted onto things like sports and movies was kind of unsettling, since the fate of the world was actually at stake, and one had to think that amping everybody up into a testosterone-fueled frenzy couldn't be a good thing. On the other hand, you couldn't help but swell with national pride at the Miracle on Ice, or at Rocky knocking out Ivan Drago. (Though to be clear, the ultimate message of "Rocky IV" is one of mutual understanding, and one hears the plaintive cry of a man who knows he is but a pawn of much more powerful forces in Drago's lament, "I must break you." OK, I'll stop.)
There may have been no cultural product that captured that atmosphere quite so perfectly as "Red Dawn," the 1984 movie in which the Commies actually do take over, and it's left to a small band of high schoolers led by Patrick Swayze to use their gumption, creativity, and familiarity with firearms to fight them off and bring freedom back to America. Perhaps because people my age are now in charge of deciding which movies get green-lit, they've made a remake.
Don't watch The Campaign with expectations of high sophistication and deft explanation of political issues.
The Dark Knight Rises is not an easy parable for the political left or right.
Midway through a matinee viewing of The Dark Knight Rises, I had a sinking feeling that many progressives would interpret it as a conservative film. It's the most obvious reading. In a thinly veiled reference to Occupy Wall Street, the main villain, Bane, spouts facile leftist slogans about "equality" and "the people," and the only man who can conquer him and save the city is billionaire Bruce Wayne.
My colleague Tom Carson makes an excellent point about The Dark Knight Rises, the final chapter in Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy:
The real joke, as Rush [Limbaugh] might have learned if he'd crammed his posterior into a theater seat before venting, is that The Dark Knight Rises is one of the most deeply conservative movies to come out of Hollywood in years.
Don't believe Limbaugh—the most recent Batman movie is an epic for the 1%
Stop me if you've heard this news flash once or twice before, but Rush Limbaugh got it gloriously wrong. On Tuesday, the Porcine One took to the airwaves to froth about the coincidence—no, wait, there's no such thing in Limbaugh-land—that the villain of The Dark Knight Rises is named Bane, a homophone for "Bain." Plainly, this was a case of Romney-bashing propaganda by a Hollywood nefariously in league with the White House.
"You may think it's ridiculous," Rush said stoutly, locking a barn door through which whole herds of ponies have fled over the years. "I'm just telling you this is the kind of stuff the Obama campaign is lining up. The kind of people who would draw this comparison are the kind of people they are campaigning to."
I've talked in the past about how unconscious bias works—and how it's an aspect of some very healthy parts of our brains and bodies. For very good reasons, we all navigate by intuition, habit, and practiced behaviors every single day. Malcolm Gladwell and Jonah Lehrer have written about these neurological facts beautifully and well. Every parent knows how time-consuming it is to have to articulate and teach habits we don't even realize we navigate by. Walk on the right and pass on the left. The fork goes here and the knife and spoon go there. It's not polite to say that in public. You can't take that until you pay. Turn your head this way to breathe while you're swimming. That truck means that person delivers the mail.
While it isn't flawless, Brave has an impressive satirical eye for a mainstream movie.
(Warning: This review spoils major plot points for Brave)
As some of you know, there is far more to the Tibetan diaspora than the Dalai Lama. More than 200,000 refugees are living, sometimes stateless, in other countries. Tenzin Dorjee, whom I've mentioned here before, is the director of Students for a Free Tibet and one of the next generation of Tibetan leaders in exile. Last week, he wrote at The Huffington Post about an incredibly moving art project, conceived after activist and artist Tenzing Rigdol's father died in exile longing to see his homeland one more time:
Woody Allen's latest travelogue is sprightlier than you'd expect.
Starting with its generic title, predictably eclectic cast, and cornball opening tune ("Volare," for Pete's sake), To Rome With Love looks like it's going to be another of Woody Allen's paint-by-numbers late-life divertissements. Those picture-postcard settings? In the bag. Not to mention that loose ensemble of coatrack characters—which bauble of your genius will you hang on me, Woody?—among whom he can parcel out his latest idle thoughts on art, love, and fate while indulging his septuagenarian fascination with the mating habits of comely young people.
In her new book, Dragnet Nation, Julia Angwin shows how badly disadvantaged ordinary people are in the struggle for privacy online.
This year was the prototype of what's probably the best that can be expected of the Academy Awards.

Is there a dark side to telecommuting?
George Mason University Professor Stephen Ruth says there's reason to be cautious about the increasing use of telework.
00Downside of TeleworkSteveCI worked for a Fortune 50 company for over 25 years. During that time they were at the forefront of implementing telecommuting, primarily due to the explosive growth changes impacting the IT area of business. The company implemented telecommuting trials in the early 1990s with the advent of email and other collaborative software and again in the early 2000s with the growth of the internet for business use. Those trials underscored two major points; 1) it works for some people/jobs and 2) it doesn't work for other people/jobs. Well, duh. There is an implied benefit to telecommuting/telework which I'm sure the statisticians look to. But this falls under the category of bias as these promoters are looking for the statistics that support the benefits of telework and ignoring those that don't. Sounds like an opinion? Nope. Telework still falls into the same two categories that is did before; works for some, not for others. Telework should not be regarded as a regular business practice. It should be an option limited to the appropriate jobs (e.g., IT testing and collaboration) and appropriate circumstances (bad weather/traffic, emergency situations). I'm hesitant to get into the human factor (or dehumanizing factor) of telework because it seems that a growing number of people are placing equal value on virtual relationships as they do personal relationships. Too bad.27083{ "Agree":"1","Funny":"1","Insightful":"1","Disagree":"-1","Offensive":"-1","Troll":"-1" }0

GTi Guitar Toner
"The GTi was created with all the different guitar players I've admired in mind. I tried to find settings that would be a starting place for getting their sound, from the 'Clean' in-your-face sound of, say, Elliott Smith to the wide chorus-y spread of The Police's Andy Summers using the 'Clean Chorus' setting. On the 'Heavy' setting, a bit of level and EQ help your already crunched guitar sound scream through any thick instrumentation you've got. 'Thick Rhythm' lets you to subtly or substantially make your rhythm guitar sound livelier; it also works great on Wurlis and Horns. The 'Soft Flange' setting is just that; it adds interesting and subtly audible filtering to legato notes or sustained electric guitars. My intention was to make these effects usable in a wide variety of applications. The wild and crazy FX are out there; you already got 'em if you need 'em!"
VX1 Vocal Enhancer
"The VX1 is a compact package for full vocal control, whether you need to squeeze the most emotion out subtle performance or engulf it in a room with a full band production. This plug-in has all the processing you need for Vocals.
Contour 1 will give you a studio or small venue room; Contour 2 is a larger chamber with reflective pre-delays, most suited for slow ballads; and Contour 3 is set up for quicker tempo songs with a very small room and matching pre-delay."
DRM Drum Slammer
"The DRM was designed to help the excitement of percussive transients get heard through mixes which are thick with instrumentation and vocals. Whether on programmed or live drums, DRM is a great starting point for your mix."
HMX Harmonics Generator
"In 'Modal' mode, the HMX will make your piano wide, with just the right amount of chorus effect, to give it life on a vocal demo, or raise your Wurlitzer's presence, for some ethereal magic. 'Bounce' mode will add a bit of reverb and delay, to create energy and movement for a sensitive ballad or live-ness to a funky full-band setting."
B72 Bass Phattener
"The B72 actually has two distinct starting places. I've worked on a large variety of music for my artists, and there's never just one sound or one preset. Try the 'DI' setting on your electric or acoustic bass and you'll see how you can enhance the roundness, while keeping it lively throughout the song. The 'Synth' setting opens up a different door, with thickness, stereo spread, and harmonic flavor. It'll fill the speakers like an old Prophet."
ACG Acoustic Guitar Designer
"The ACG is a comprehensive tool to help gain ultimate control and energy boost from a variety of acoustic guitar types. The 'ACG 1' setting allows you to maximize level and sculpt your top and bottom. 'ACG 2' setting has more built-in compression for bringing out the subtleties in a live performance. Both have appropriate room settings available to be dialed in at varying levels."

A former Penn State assistant coach testified this week that it was not uncommon to see Jerry Sandusky bring young boys into gym showers with him.
The coach, Dick Anderson, said it never struck him as extraordinary and added that in other gym settings it is not uncommon for people of all generations to shower together.
The idea that Sandusky may have been trying to demonstrate sound hygienic practices contradicts the experiences of almost every young person who participated in school sports or physical education class and managed to survive without having to share a shower with a coach or teacher.
There are protections that any organization can take to shield volunteers and staff from baseless allegations or suspicion. Adults should not be spending time alone with individual minors.
Sandusky's entire mode of operating through The Second Mile ran against the grain of this common sense guideline.
The Penn State defense in the Sandusky case would seem to be: University staff were too naive to be suspicious of Sandusky.
This blind loyalty somehow survived two eye- witness reports and a police investigation into one parent's allegations after another Penn State assistant described how he witnessed Sandusky raping a young boy in one of those gym showers. Grand jury testimony included allegations that a former janitor saw something similarly horrific involving Sandusky and a young boy.
Former FBI director Louis Freeh's investigation into the university's role in the Sandusky case revealed emails between former university President Graham Spanier and other administrators that showed university leaders had heard reports that Sandusky was accused of molesting young boys, but the school did not immediately notify law enforcement.
The weight of the evidence is slanting toward the conclusion that university officials had ample opportunity to recognize what was going on and, being university officials, had both the intelligence and obligation to follow through. They made a decision to ignore their opportunities to put a stop to Sandusky's alleged predatory behavior out of concern that the allegations would hurt Penn State's brand.
They were right: The brand is tarnished in a way that no one could ever have imagined.
The Sandusky defense appears to be positioning itself to make the claim that some of the accusers are motivated by the prospect of a financial payday from civil lawsuits.
It is a stretch to imagine a conspiracy of eight young people fabricating stories in the hope of cashing in.
Penn State officials have every reason to worry that they will be asked eventually to shoulder some of the liability for Jerry Sandusky's crimes. One simple rule could have prevented this.

ED Proposes Changes to Loan Programs, Part 1
July 23, 2009
In the first of five notices of proposed rulemaking that are expected to be issued this summer, on July 23, the Department of Education published proposed regulatory changes for its loan programs, focusing primarily on lender and guaranty agency issues. The rules will implement provisions of the Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA) of 2008 for the Federal Perkins Loan, the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL), and the Federal Direct Loan programs. Topics addressed include permanent disability discharges, prohibited inducements in the FFEL program, expanded information disclosures for FFEL and Direct Loan borrowers, loan rehabilitation, and financial literacy programs. The comment period is very short, with an August 24 deadline.
Total and Permanent Disability Loan Discharges
The proposed changes to the rules for disability discharges, which apply to all three loan programs, are probably of the most interest to business officers. The definition of total and permanent disability would be modified to align with the HEOA as follows.
The condition of an individual who:
(1) Is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment that-
(i) Can be expected to result in death;
(ii) Has lasted for a continuous period of not less than 60 months; or
(iii) Can be expected to last for a continuous period of not less than 60 months; or
(2) Has been determined by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to be unemployable due to a service-connected disability.
A definition of "substantial gainful activity" would also be provided.
The process for granting discharges based on total and permanent disability would also change under these rules. Rather than the current process under which a borrower who is determined to be disabled receives a conditional discharge for three years before being granted a permanent discharge, the proposed rules would grant a permanent discharge when the borrower was first determined to be disabled. Then if the borrower, within three years of the date of the discharge, receives another Title IV loan or has earned income in excess of the poverty line, the loan would be reinstated.
A separate discharge process for veterans would be set up that only requires the submission of documentation from the Department of Veterans Affairs that the borrower is considered unemployable due to a service-connected disability.
Regulatory Process
These proposed rules were drafted with the help of a representative team of stakeholders, known as a negotiated rulemaking committee. Now, this notice solicits public comments on the proposed rules. NACUBO encourages its members to review the notice and submit comments about any concerns. Please share your comments with NACUBO. In order for the regulations to take effect on July 1, 2010, as scheduled, ED must publish the final rules no later than November 1.
