New York Times Editorial Page Gets It, Too (Mostly) Marty Lederman
The feverish reports of presidential capitulation and compromise from earlier in the week are slowly giving way, on careful inspection, to the realizaation that, as the New York Times puts it in an editorial tomorrow, "the president has made it clear that he is not giving an inch of ground," notwithstanding the landmark decision in Hamdan. A Tale of Two Washington Posts Marty Lederman
Finally. Has the Onion Infiltrated the Offices of Time Magazine? Marty Lederman
This Time Magazine story about the Specter/Administration negotiations basically concedes that the Specter bill gives the President unlimited authority -- indeed, authority even greater than that he enjoyed in the mid-1970's, before FISA was enacted. (Why greater powers than pre-1978? Because under the Specter bill, the constitutional challenges that were common then, and that at least imposed modest limits on such wiretapping, could be transferred to the FISA court, with secret proceedings, strict confidentiality rules, and the power to dismiss such claims "for any reason.") Two More Hamdan Myths Marty Lederman
I've written previously of various myths cropping up about the Hamdan decision, particularly as it relates to questions about treatment of detainees. Friday, July 14, 2006
Representative Harman on the Specter Bill Guest Blogger
Congresswoman Jane Harman The NSA, FISA and Hamdan: Response to DOJ from Scholars and Former Officials Marty Lederman
I'm honored to be part of a diverse group of constitutional scholars and former government officials who have joined together to write a series of letters to congressional officials in which we argue that the recently disclosed NSA domestic eavesdropping program is unlawful. Our first two letters, sent earlier this year, were responsive to two memoranda issued by the Department of Justice. Those four documents, along with an introduction that David Cole and I wrote, are collected in a recent issue of the Indiana Law Journal, see 81 Ind. L.J. 1355 (2006)¸ which the American Constitution Society has helpfully republished online. (See also this post.) Orin Kerr on the FISA Bill JB
Orin Kerr agrees with my previous argument that section 801 (which is part of section 9 in the draft version) is the most problematic part of the new FISA bill, and essentially capitulates to the Article II on steroids theory: Congress can certainly do this, of course: Congress passed FISA, and it can repeal or water it down as well. And of course different people will have diffferent views on whether this is a good idea. But it does seem like this is a major shift in approach, and one that is probably more important in the long run than whether the NSA domestic surveillance progam is submitted to the FISA court for review. New Report Shows Links Between Public Opinion and Free Speech Protections JB
Today the Information Society at Yale Law School published a white paper with appendices authored by Yale ISP Fellow Marvin Ammori. The study canvassas 50 years of social science research and concludes that although courts are traditionally believed to be a check on majorities, judicial protections for First Amendment rights depend in the long run on public support for freedom of speech and the press. As a result the white paper proposes a series of educational initiatives to help the public better understand how freedom of speech and freedom of the press safeguard democratic self-government. Research for the white paper was sponsored by a grant from the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, which issued a statement announcing the white paper's findings today: The public is also much less protective of media rights than individual rights. That makes it less likely that the high court will rule for news organizations in First Amendment cases than it would in an environment of high public respect for the news media. The study points to a wide range of mechanisms by which public opinion affects judicial decisions, ranging from the appointments process — which shifts the median or "swing" Justice on the Supreme Court — to the fact that judges and Justices live in the same culture as everyone else. These effects may often be indirect, but over time they may matter a great deal. "We are now engaged in a really vital debate over civil liberties after 9/11, and it becomes ever more important for the public to show its support for our basic freedoms," said [ISP Director Jack M.] Balkin, "It's a time of challenge but also a time of opportunity. Courts can't do everything by themselves, nor should we expect them to. If the public rises to the occasion and supports freedom of speech when it is threatened, the judiciary will be far more likely to protect this core freedom." What is needed, the study says, are larger efforts to educate the public about the First Amendment. It proposes a model for educating students and the public on First Amendment issues, focusing on how free speech and a free press advance democracy and serve the public interest. The model education program should also educate the public about the difference between using social norms and social disapproval to regulate speech, and using the power of the state in the form of fines and criminal penalties. The best way to learn about freedom of speech, the study argues, is by doing. Individuals are more likely to support the sort of speech in which they themselves engage or could imagine engaging. Thus the study suggests that schools create programs that allow students to practice journalism and political expression, using new technologies such as blogs and podcasts. Even marginal improvements in public education may have important long term effects on public support for the First Amendment, the study concludes. Research suggests that the better educated individuals are, the more tolerant they are of even offensive and indecent speech, and the more willing they are to protect routine journalistic practices. Breaking and Entering Under the Specter Bill JB
In addition to Marty's and my posts on why the proposed FISA bill gives the President a blank check to engage in warrantless electronic surveillance, it appears that the Specter bill also gives the President a blank check to engage in warrantless physical searches-- i.e. breaking and entering-- as long as he claims that he is engaged in foreign intelligence surveillance. 18 U.S.C. 1827 currently makes it a crime to "execute a physical search within the United States [for the purpose of obtaining foreign intelligence information] except as authorized by statute." That is, under the current rules, if the President wants to break into someone's house to look for evidence of spying, he has to comply with FISA first. Specter's bill amends this provision to read "except as authorized by statute or the Constitution." In other words, physical searches are not illegal if the President breaks into your house asserting his Article II powers as Commander-in-Chief. None of FISA's oversight procedures apply. So when you hear that sound of broken glass in the night, don't be alarmed. It's not a burglar. It's not a thief. It's just some agents from the government, and they're here to help. Specter Gives Up the Game-- The Sham NSA Bill JB
Senator Specter has reached agreement with the White House on a bill that would amend FISA and allow judicial review of the Administration's domestic surveillance activities on a program by program basis. The text of the bill is here and a summary is here Although the judicial review provision is worrisome, it is by no means the most troubling thing about this bill. Specter's proposed legislation, if passed in its present form, would give President Bush everything he wants. And then some. At first glance, Specter's bill looks like a moderate and wise compromise that expands the President's authority to engage in electronic surveillance under a variety of Congressional and judicial oversight procedures. But read more closely, it actually turns out to be a virtual blank check to the Executive, because under section 801 of the bill the President can route around every single one of them. Thus, all of the elegant machinery of the bill's oversight provisions is, I regret to report, a complete and total sham. Once the President obtains the powers listed in section 801, the rest of the bill is pretty much irrelevant. He will be free of Congressional oversight forever. But first, the details: The bill authorizes the FISA court to permit "electronic surveillance programs"-- the key point being that these involve domestic surveillance of U.S. citizens-- for periods up to 90 days, periods which are indefinitely renewable. Authorization is on a program by program basis, rather than on the basis of the particular individuals who are being watched. All legal challenges to the surveillance program-- including challenges to the use of evidence in other prosecutions or litigation-- can be moved to the secret FISA court if the Attorney General states that national security demands it. The FISA court, in turn, has the power to dismiss a challenge to the legality of the program "for any reason." This provision seems puzzling: literally it says that the court can dismiss legal challenges to programs for any reason, whether good or bad, and even if the objections to the programs are well founded. In fact, the provision makes sense only if its purpose is to allow the FISA court to immunize Presidential surveillance from legal attack. To obtain permission for an electronic surveillance program the Attorney General must declare in an affidavit that the program cannot be performed under existing FISA procedures and that the communications intercepted are communications of or with "(A) a foreign power that is engaged in international terrorism activities or in preparation therefore; (B) an agent of a foreign power that is engaged in international terrorism activities or in preparation therefore; or (C) a person reasonably believed to have communication with or be associated with a foreign power that is engaged in international terrorism activities or in preparation therefore or an agent of a foreign power that is engaged in international terrorism activities or in preparation therefore." Note that under this test a U.S. citizen can be wiretapped even if he is not involved in terrorism as long as at some point he has been in communication with someone involved in terrorism, even if he or she does not know that the person was involved in these activities. Thus the Specter bill clearly allows electronic eavesdropping of citizens whom the Administration does not suspect of terrorism. And under the bill's terms, this surveillance is not limited only to conversations with persons whom the Administration does suspect of terrorism. As the bill is currently written, once a person has been "in communication with" a suspected agent of terrorism-- even for the most innocent reasons-- he or she is marked as a lawful target of surveillance. In order to prevent the obvious possibilities for abuse, the statute also requires that the Attorney General offer and implement what are called "minimization procedures." (These procedures are outlined in FISA at 18 U.S.C. section 1801(h)). But that's not all. The new Bill amends section 102 of FISA to allow the President to engage in electronic surveillance without seeking a court order for up to a year as long the Attorney General is willing to state that all he is doing is intercepting communications by foreign powers or their agents. This changes the old FISA provision section 1811 that allowed warrantless surveillance for up to 15 days after a declaration of war. No declaration of war is necessary now, and the program can continue for a year instead of 15 days. What is interesting-- and puzzling-- about these two provisions is that even though they are quite broad, they do not seem to be adequate to justify the existing NSA program, at least as it has been reported in the press. That program appears to have involved intercepting a wide swath of electronic communications, some with no overt connections to terrorism, which were then whittled down through analysis and data mining to produce a series of leads for future surveillance. What is mystifying about this bill, in short, is that even if it were passed, the NSA would immediately have to go beyond the authority it grants. And that curious fact leads us directly to section 801, which, it turns out, is actually the most important part of the bill; the rest is mere camouflage. Section 801 offers nothing less than Congressional imprimatur for the President to go outside of FISA whenever he likes. For section 801 states that "Nothing in this Act shall be construed to limit the constitutional authority of the President to collect intelligence with respect to foreign powers and agents of foreign powers." This restores the very language that was repealed when FISA was created to constrain and channel the President's powers. And if you look closely at the bill's proposed additions to section 109 of FISA, you will see that FISA would now prohibit electronic surveillance except as authorized by statute "or under the Constitution." Similarly, 18 U.S.C. 2511(2)(e) used to say that FISA was the exclusive means by which electronic surveillance was legally authorized. The Specter bill changes that to read that electronic surveillance is authorized "under the constitutional authority of the executive or the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978." Get the idea? The President can always do an end run around any procedures that FISA offers as long as he claims inherent authority under Article II. If Specter's bill passes, all of FISA's limitations and procedural safeguards won't be worth the paper they are written on. Specter will have written the Administration's Article II on steroids theory into law! In short, if this bill is passed in its present form, it would seem to give the Executive everything it could possibly dream of-- a lax method of oversight and the possibility of ignoring that oversight whenever the President chooses. The NSA can (1) engage in ongoing electronic surveillance within FISA with indefinite 90 day renewals, (2) engage in electronic surveillance without even seeking a court order for a year, and finally (3) under section 801, engage in electronic surveillance outside of FISA under the President's constitutional authority to collect foreign intelligence surveillance. Barely two weeks after Hamdan, which appeared to be the most important separation of powers decision in our generation, the Executive is about to get back everything it lost in that decision, and more. In Hamdan, the Supreme Court gave the ball to Congress, hoping for a bit of oversight, and Senator Specter has just punted. Thursday, July 13, 2006
The Specter Monstrosity Marty Lederman
After the Hamdan decision, the Administration's legal defense of the NSA non-FISA-compliant domestic surveillance program is much weaker than ever -- and that's saying something. CCR Report: Prisoner Mistreatment at Guantanamo JB
The Center for Constitutional Rights has released a sobering report based on interviews and statements by Guantanamo Bay detainees. The information, originally obtained from secret notes of interviews with habeas counsel, was later cleared by a Defense Department review and corroborated by public and unclassified sources. The report offers chilling accounts of prisoner mistreatment and states that detainees at Guantanamo have been Although the Bush Administration tries to insist, in the words of Tony Snow, that "humane treatment has always been the standard" at Guantanamo Bay and elsewhere, the Administration would not be trying so hard to wiggle out of the legal requirements of Hamdan-- or asking Congress to pass new laws overruling the effect of Common Article 3-- if that were really the case. Apparently the Administration's definition of "humane" is so far below the minimum standards that civilized nations have set that it must excuse itself even from those minimum standards. What does this fact say about our claim to be a civilized nation? Does the Administration even care? The widespread nature of the activities described in the CCR report belies the claim that prisoner mistreatment at Guantanamo Bay was the product of a few isolated individuals. Indeed, what the CCR tells us is not new: it meshes with reports of mistreatment at Guantanamo that have been leaking out for some time. Rather, the important question, and the question that the Administration has sought to avoid, is who is responsible for condoning these practices. Not-so-Common Article 3 Marty Lederman
Well, as I suggested, the Administration's noises about how, in the wake of Hamdan, it was finally going to comply with Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions, are not quite what they were cracked up to be in the eager, early press releases. Wednesday, July 12, 2006
Bush Administration to Justice Stevens: Drop Dead JB
The DOJ has announced that it regards the Hamdan case as irrelevant to the legality of the NSA controversy. As Marty and I have pointed out here and here, this is not a plausible reading of Hamdan. In effect, the Bush Administration has told the Supreme Court: we'll keep on doing what we want until you directly order us not to. The Bush Administration is clearly counting on the fact that it will take many years for a final determination of the legality of the NSA program; in the meanwhile, the Administration will ask for a stay of any lower court holding that rules against them. Assuming that most courts would grant such a request on national security grounds, the Administration figures that it can keep the NSA program running for many years. In the meantime, Justice Stevens, the Court's oldest member, and the author of Hamdan, may leave the Court due to retirement or death, to be replaced by a nominee more pliable to the Administration's wishes. Given the Administration's intransigence, it falls to the public and to Congress to pressure it (or shame it) into acknowledging that it must change its policy on the NSA controversy just as it has been forced to on the question of prisoner detention and mistreatement (or at least *seems* to have changed, if Marty's previous post is correct). If the Administration wants to continue conducting electronic surveillance on American citizens, it must go to Congress and ask for amendments to FISA that bring its actions under the law. In the meantime, an Executive that acts beyond the law is a lawless Executive. What the press and the public must understand is that this Administration does not play by the rules. It does not take a hint. Instead it will continue to obfuscate and prevaricate, as it has so often in the past on issues ranging from detention to prisoner mistreatment. This Administration will not conform its actions to the Rule of Law unless it finds doing so politically infeasible. As a result, the Congress, the courts, the press and the public will have to object-- repeatedly and strenuously-- if they want the Executive to abide by its constitutional obligation to take care that the laws be faithfully executed.

Well, Now It's Clear: Hamdan's Just a Bump in the Road Marty Lederman
As I noted the other day, virtually all observers agreed that the Court's decision in Hamdan appeared to tear the legs out from under the dual justifications that the Department of Justice has offered in support of the legality of the recently revealed NSA domestic electronic surveillance program. Since then, Cass Sunstein, once perhaps the most surprising defender of the Department's views, came awfully close on this blog to shutting the door on the legal defense, and even Andy McCarthy, perhaps the program's most vociferous supporter, lamented today that "Hamdan sounds the death knell for the NSA's Terrorist Surveillance Program." Airtight Logic Marty Lederman
Administration Press Secretary Tony Snow today was quoted as saying that the new DoD compliance with Common Article 3 is "not really a reversal of policy," and insisted that all U.S. detainees have been treated humanely -- which is apparently all that Common Article 3 requires. As I explained below, now that the Administration has lost its four-plus-years' fight to deny the applicability of Common article 3, it's new tactic appears to be to insist that its approved detainee interrogation pracitces have -- what do you know? -- complied with Common Article 3! Out with the "New Paradigm," in with the Old? JB
I wanted to add a few comments to Marty's post concerning the Financial Times story about Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England's memo. As the Financial Times explains, that memo, offered in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision in Hamdan, "reverses the policy outlined by President George W. Bush in 2002 when he decided members of al-Qaeda and the Taliban did not qualify for Geneva protections because the war on terrorism had ushered in a `new paradigm . . . [that] requires new thinking in the law of war'." Saying that the U.S. is committed to the Geneva Conventions in a memo is one thing, implementing that commitment is another. Perhaps equally important, this apparent about-face suggests that the United States will face considerable political embarrassment-- not to mention legal difficulties-- for what it has already done in the name of the Bush Administration's "new paradigm." As Marty points out, it is not clear whether the Defense Department is ready to admit that some of its interrogation and detention policies are affected by Hamdan because it continues to assume that they are consistent with Common Article 3. However, the memo does appear to concede that the military commissions are inconsistent with Common Article 3. One important short term result, however, will be to take some of the steam out of Congressional attempts to reinstitute the military tribunals in the exact form that the President wanted them. The Pentagon's new policy will also undermine claims from some right-wing circles that detainees deserved no rights at all, and that the Hamdan decision created, in Representative Boehner's words, "special privileges for terrorists." If the Pentagon states that Common Article 3 applies to all detainees, even those alleged to be members of al Qaeda, it becomes somewhat harder to denounce those who agree with the Pentagon's position as soft on terrorism. Newsflash: Pentagon Agrees to Abide by Supreme Court Ruling -- Or Does It? -- and a Short Riff on the Haynes Nomination Marty Lederman
Breaking news: Pentagon General Counsel Jim Haynes has ordered senior defense officials and military officers to apply Common Article 3 of the Geneva Conventions to all detainees held in US military custody. The DOD memo can be found here. Monday, July 10, 2006
Clinton impeachment revisited yet again Sandy Levinson
I note that Cass Sunstein begins his reply to Marty Lederman by writing that "[t]he Clinton impeachment was clearly unconstitutional, but very few conservative law professors (or lawyers) were willing to say so, at least in public." I find it interesting that Sunstein is willing to use the word "clearly" in this context, since, with respect, I don't find it so clear. It certainly seems to be plausible to believe that Clinton committed perjury. I suppose the argument is that this doesn't count as a "high crime and misdemeanor." That may be so, but if and only if one adopts an originalist methodology vis-a-vis the meaning of the Impeachment Clause, a methodology notably rejected by most of Clinton's supporters (and, I think, by and large by Sunstein). And, as I have argued elsewhere (and will be arguing in my forthcoming book), it is almost zany, given the responsibilities of the modern President, to argue that we are stuck for some years with a discredited president simply because he did not commit acts that would have counted in 1787 as a "high crime and misdemeanor."

AARP Urges Senators to Support Budget Control Act of 2011 Introduced in the Senate
WASHINGTON—As the U.S. Congress continues its consideration of legislation to grant the federal government additional borrowing authority, AARP Executive Vice President Nancy LeaMond today sent a letter to members of the U.S. Senate urging their support for the Budget Control Act of 2011 introduced in the Senate. AARP members and other older Americans have been urging elected officials in both political parties to not cut Social Security and Medicare benefits as part of a deal to reduce the federal deficit. The text of Ms. LeaMond's letter follows:
Dear Senator:
On behalf of millions of AARP members nationwide and all Americans age 50 and older and their families, we write to urge your support of the Budget Control Act of 2011 introduced by Majority Leader Reid earlier this week. This plan would resolve the current debt ceiling crisis which has created great anxiety among our members, and take steps to reduce our debt without risking benefits for current Social Security and Medicare beneficiaries.
From surveys, town hall meetings, and correspondence, we know older Americans are deeply concerned about the deficit and our nation's fiscal health. However, they also want to make sure the promises made to them regarding Medicare and Social Security are honored and the safety net of Medicaid is protected. Our members are worried that the benefits they have earned may be cut as part of a deal to reduce the deficit, and they are increasingly worried that if there is no agreement very soon, they may not receive their Social Security checks and may lose access to their health care.
The Budget Control Act of 2011 does not cut Social Security or Medicare to reduce the deficit in order to increase the debt ceiling. It does not impose across-the-board cuts or triggers for reductions in Social Security or Medicare as a condition of increasing the debt ceiling. Critically, it increases the debt ceiling through the end of this Congress, providing our members and other older Americans with a deserved measure of certainty regarding their Social Security checks and access to their health care. Furthermore, it does not premise an additional increase in the debt ceiling on the success of a yet to be formed committee of legislators -- a condition that would create great uncertainty for everyone, including our members and other older Americans who would again have no assurance that they could access their retirement income and health care this winter.
Millions of Americans rely heavily, or even completely, on the benefits they earned and receive from Social Security. Equally, millions of older Americans rely on Medicare to meet their critical health care needs. A loss of these benefits would be truly devastating and the well-being of millions of Americans would be put in significant jeopardy. AARP urges you to support the Budget Control Act of 2011, so that a quick resolution to the debt ceiling crisis can be reached without putting at risk the Social Security and Medicare benefits that older Americans have earned and need.
Nancy A. LeaMond
Executive Vice President
State and National Group

Tags: Mundane Monday
There's Diversity Thursday, Full Bore and Flightdeck Friday. Typically exciting or insightfull posts and commentary. This week I am inaugurating something new and different: "Mundane Monday", a series of tips and ideas on the mundane things that can be banes of our existence. Administrivia (or administerrorism), use of data processing and presentation programs, the side of information assurance that the dear mongering annual training won't cover, and a host of other normally boring things that yet cause people to say "WTF" on a regular basis. This week I'm commenting on the venerable and universal PDF file.
The Adobe Acrobat Portable Document File has been around for two decades, and been the de-facto standard for distribution of text files for half of that. One would think that after a decade of common use, both in the hallowed halls of government and without, that there'd be a bit more knowledge of it's usage. Sadly, like most data processing tools there are few educational tools for producers, and even fewer for consumers.
The PDF format allows you to do many things – all of which universalize the document as well as reduce the file size.
- Have a PowerPoint document that runs at too many slides and too many pictures but need to email it? Try printing to a PDF (look under the "Print" option in PowerPoint) and emailing the reduced and unalterable file.
- Have a form that needs to be filled in? Create it in MSWord, then print to a PDF. If you have a full version of Acrobat (not just the reader) you can add fillable blocks on the form.
- Distributing an instruction? Rather than scan in a bunch of images and sending out unsearchable files in either PDF, TIFF, or JPG files, PDF the original MSWord document (yes, you can create a fancy government seal header in MSWord, and embed a signature as well). That makes the document searchable – and if you are really daring you can go so far as to build hyperlinks into the Table of Contents – something I believe MSWord will do if you use the Table of Contents form fields.
So, mundane. On Monday. Any good stories on improper use of PDFs? Good stories on excellent use of this common tool? Places someone should have used a PDF and went with some gucci-proprietary over-costed solution? Or other ideas to talk about on a Mundane Monday.

CornDog and Lantern are two new clocks aching to get into Clock Crew, but are left to wait.
Rated 5 / 5 stars January 26, 2012
Hi there
Welcome :) I didn't realize that the week-long waiting period was still in effect, I'll see what we can do about changing that.
Nice first flash, did you draw that lantern?
Yes I did. Based it after a bit of Lantern's own Lantern, but added some of my own touches. Such as making the lantern glow.
Rated 3 / 5 stars January 22, 2012
Pretty pictures, with a couple of tweens. It has been done before by thousands of clocks.
No shit?
Rated 1.5 / 5 stars January 22, 2012
I dont get it
The animation is good, or drawing I guess but besides that I do not get what is so funny about this stupid clock things using speech software from like 10 years ago doing basically nothing.
I don't like you.
Rated 5 / 5 stars January 22, 2012
Welcome to the Crew.
Yeah, the 1 week wait is kinda crappy, but its to weed out the buttmunches. However, if you're really passionate about joining, I recommend using the time to lurk around our forums, get a good understanding on our code of conduct, and generally see if the Clock Crew is your place to be.
I'm pretty sure you can make a thread in the introductory forum (That's the 'Reception Desk' in general), so give that a shot. If not; see you in a week!
Tried it. Guess I can't. See you in a week.
Me and Lantern joined together. So, give him a shout, too, if you don't mind.

Bucharest, Romania – April 29, 2009 – Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, the global leader in the breast cancer movement, is supporting six community projects designed to address some of the most pressing issues Romania faces in the fight against breast cancer. Each year, more than 3,000 women die from breast cancer which is the leading cause of death for women in Romania.
The projects, which are aimed at increasing early detection of breast cancer, range from developing survivor support groups, to a variety of workplace and community-based awareness-raising projects, to a groundbreaking advocacy project to include survivors in the definition of persons with special needs, thus giving survivors the right to obtain free prosthesis. The combined total of the community grants is more than $50,000.
To celebrate the awards, a press event will take place in Cluj on May 6, 2009.
"With more than 1.3 million women worldwide receiving a breast cancer diagnosis each year, it has never been more critical to increase advocacy for, and education about, this life-threatening disease," said Annetta Hewko, Komen for the Cure's vice president of global strategy and programs. "This groundbreaking initiative contributes to creating a dynamic global network of dedicated breast health activists with the skills, knowledge and vision to play a strategic role in shaping their country's response to breast cancer."
Addressing the needs and realities identified in community profilesGrants were based on the individual project's ability to address the needs and realities identified in community profiles; potential for sustainability and impact on breast health; innovation, and the degree of collaboration with organizations and individuals from diverse backgrounds and sectors.
Komen and the Institute of International Education (IIE) launched the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Global Initiative for Breast Cancer Awareness in 2007. It is now active in Romania, Ukraine, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Mexico, Brazil, Costa Rica and Panama.
The community projects in these countries are a result of the work carried out by a network of breast cancer advocates who have participated in Komen's Course for the Cure™ trainings over the past year.
Projects designed to addressing gaps in breast health awareness and educationCourse for the Cure is a series of training modules based on Komen's 27 years of experience in breast cancer awareness and advocacy. Advocates of the Global Initiative network designed community projects to address gaps in breast health awareness and education identified by the Global Initiative.
The Global Initiative has established strong partnerships with local leaders in breast health and has identified, recruited and trained more than 500 women and men in 24 communities in advocacy, fundraising, health education, volunteerism and community assessment. In each country, these advocates develop a community profile of breast health and identify barriers to care or "gaps" in breast health that had never before been compiled. These prioritized gaps formed the basis for developing plans for education outreach, awareness programs and advocacy efforts to improve breast health outcomes.
In its second year, the Komen Global Initiative activities focus on deepening and supporting the activists trained. Additional training workshops are broadening the network and the tools available to them, and community grants are empowering them to put their learning into action as they tackle challenges identified in the first year.
About the Institute of International Education Founded in 1919, the Institute of International Education (IIE) is one of the world's most experienced global higher education and professional exchange organizations. IIE has long worked to implement international training programs to build leadership skills and enhance the capacity of individuals and organizations to address local and global challenges. The Susan G. Komen for the Cure Global Initiative for Breast Cancer Awareness is managed by IIE West Coast Center in San Francisco.

Seabrook Travel Tips
For a seaside vacation in the Pacific Northwest, book your stay in Seabrook lodging today. This lovely little town located in the state of Washington offers the visitor a wonderful opportunity for a relaxing vacation by the ocean's edge. However, there's nothing truly relaxing about a stay in a cramped hotel room. Skip that part by staying in one of the Seabrook cabins. Your family will appreciate both the space and the privacy!
The Boardwalk Beach Trail Near Seabrook Lodging
Not too far from the Seabrook lodging, you'll discover the Boardwalk Beach Trail. This sturdy walkway allows visitors to travel for a full three miles through a dripping rain forest in the Olympic National Park without soggy shoes. Along the way, enjoy the sites including crashing waves, playful sea otters, and majestic bald eagles. Once you're through, return to the Seabrook cabins to rest up for your next adventure.
Fishing Around the Corner from the Seabrook Cabins
The Quinault River is considered one of the best places to fish along the entire length of the West Coast. Normally, this area has good fishing all year, but keep an eye on the weather. Although you can return to your Seabrook lodging in no time, no one wants to get completely soaked during the cold winter months. In the summer, it's no problem. Simply bring a few extra clothes before leaving the Seabrook cabins.
Dig for your Dinner in Seabrook
While staying in Olympic Peninsula vacation rentals during the winter months, you may get a chance to dig for your dinner if you're lucky. At Twin Harbors, Long Beach, Copalis, and Mocrocks, visitors can sift through the sand for razor clams. You must have a fishing license and each digger is restricted to keeping only 15 clams - just enough for dinner.
Enjoy the beaches during your stay in the Seabrook lodging!
