MashUP player Areen Shihade slaps five with the member of an opposing Ultimate team.
Grab a Frisbee and a few friends and you've got yourself a game of Ultimate. But get serious about it, and maybe the sport can bring together Israeli Jews, Arabs and Palestinian teenagers to become a meaningful effort toward peace in the ongoing Middle East conflict. That's what David Barkan did. Since 2009, his organization Ultimate Peace has been doing just that. Barkan spent 20 years playing competitive Ultimate, and in 2005 he took some Jewish Ultimate players to spend a few weeks in Israel to introduce the sport to kids, hold clinics, and play in tournaments. "When I came back from Israel it became obvious to me that we needed to use this as a peace-building tool," Barkan said. "I could see it had an effect on the kids that we worked with." From that, Ultimate Peace was born. "The idea was simple," Barkan said. "You bring them together, with Ultimate as the tool, to build bridges of understanding across the cultures, across the borders, with the hope that they not only enjoy playing Ultimate, and playing Ultimate together, but potentially change and transform, and become friends." Sixteen of these coaches in training, or CITs, who create new teams in their home communities as well as coach the players, visited Seattle during the last weekend of April, both to compete at Spring Reign in Burlington, the largest youth Ultimate tournament in the world, and to talk about the program. One of those players, Areen Shihade, 16, is an Arab Israeli girl from the northern Israeli town of Tamira and a budding leader in Ultimate Peace. Before she joined the group, she would quickly become angry, she said, but Ultimate has helped control her temper. She attributes her newfound calm to one unique aspect of the sport: "In the game, there is no referee, so we have to deal with our little problems on the field," she said. The self-refereeing aspect to Ultimate is what Barkan, who said that he too was once hot-headed on the playing field, sees as the key to a successful program. "Soccer wouldn't have worked," he said. "The violence in it isn't conducive to it, the fact that you can pull the guy's shirt and elbow when the referee's not looking. The whole point of this is personal accountability." If your opponent is also your referee, you have to figure out a solution on your own, he said, and that's a skill that can be applied to daily life. "They've already said that's transferred to their lives outside: How they behave with their families, how they are interested in other sports, and what kind of students and citizens they are," Barkan said. Like the game itself, the Bay Area-based Ultimate Peace operates from the grassroots, relying upon donations and sponsorships to hold weeklong summer camps, pay its coaches, buy equipment and uniforms, and send its players to tournaments such as Spring Reign. More than 300 teens from the Middle East have participated in Ultimate Peace since its inception. While in Seattle, the senior rabbis and members of Temple Beth Am provided home hospitality and transportation. Moses Rivkin, an Ultimate coach and teacher at University Prep in Seattle's Northend, has been involved with Ultimate Peace since its inception and worked with the camp in Israel. The visiting CITs spoke at his school, as well as rode the bus from Seattle to Burlington with his students, where he could see how they interacted with each other. "It was cool to see them plugging into each other's earbuds and sitting in these close quarters together, laughing together, and talking about how their days had gone," Rivkin said. Several University Prep students that Rivkin coaches have since applied to the Ultimate Peace coach-in-training program at this summer's camp, he said. Though the Middle East kids talked to many groups about their program, they also came to play Ultimate. Spring Reign organizers were at the last minute able to seed MashUP, as the team calls itself, with the A-level high school teams, which ended up being the right call. "They are so good. They would have rolled over the B division," said Jeff Jorgenson, one of the directors of Spring Reign. "It was highly competitive, a lot of strong throws, a lot of big jumps, a lot of downfield — all the elements you want to checkbox in a quality Ultimate match." The team members talked about Ultimate Peace at the awards ceremony, but they spent plenty of time on the field intermingling with the other teams. "It was emotional for me, because I've got so many games under my belt," Jorgenson said, "to see that players from Ultimate Peace have come from such a troubled part of the world, where they can still rise up and play with respect for themselves, respect for their teammates, and remember the real victor in a game is how well you play if you give it your all." Asmaa Hijazi, a 16-year-old Arab Israeli from the town of Tamira, said the energies she has devoted to the program have been life changing. Hijazi first heard about Ultimate Peace's weeklong camp two years ago and decided to attend because she was interested in the sport. It quickly became much more than a game. "Just going through the camp, and having weekend practices, we talk about many things," she said of her teammates. "We're always talking about our lives… just as if I was in Tamira and I'd see Arab Muslims." Hijazi has been traveling to other towns, both Arab and Jewish, to teach the sport and to recruit kids to come to the camp. She said her family has noticed a change in her, in particular how she has gotten less temperamental. "When they saw me getting involved in the program and the national team, they saw how much I love it, and how good it is," she said. For Elad Strasman, 16, a Jewish Israeli from the city of Ra'anana, being a part of the program "changed my perspective about Arabs and Palestinians," he said. The former soccer player said that being a part of the leadership program has given him the courage to say something if one of his peers makes a disparaging remark about his newfound friends' cultures. The real test will occur in the coming years, when the first cohort of players and coaches-in-training leaves the nest and faces the high pressure of the military — or the receiving end of Israel's military tactics. Barkan said Ultimate Peace hopes to get the Israelis who join the army to take advantage of a community-service program that would allow them to continue coaching. But Barkan hopes active duty will allow his players to see the ongoing conflict differently. "If they have a relationship, they're way more likely to do the right thing when these guys go in the army, and they go into the neighborhoods of the kids who are in their program," he said. "Can you imagine how that's going to be for them and how they're going to think differently than the others around them would?" That's the hope of Barkan and Israel's Ministry of Sport and Culture, which he said has embraced Ultimate Peace. What has become clear is what started as a modest program has become something more positive and fulfilling than its creators could have imagined. "I'd be really happy about it if it was a cool week for some kids in the Middle East who wouldn't have otherwise met each other," said Rivkin, the University Prep teacher. "But to see these incredibly articulate CITs who've really grown up in the program, talking about how it changed their life, and coming here and talking to our students about how it changed their life and maybe touching them in some way, it's a really profound thing for me. I'm glad it exists."

The Westphalian myth revisited. State sovereignty and the process of international law-making and law-enforcement from the 16th centrury to the present
01 / 2005 - onbekend
Leverancier gegevens
Website CTLD
Samenvatting (EN)
According to traditional historiography, the Westphalian States system was based on an almost absolute concept of State sovereignty. This led to the articulation of the doctrine of dualism, thus underpinning the idea of impermeability of international and national law as well as excluding the individual from the international scene. Law making and law enforcement were attributed solely to the States (legal voluntarism). By consequence, nothing prevented States from resorting to warfare. World War I is generally considered a watershed in the history of international society and of international law. The peace process of 1919/1920 set in motion some changes that would thoroughly alter international law and lead to the watering down of sovereignty, dualism and the monopoly of the State with regards to law making and law enforcement. Over the last few years, this view on the Westphalian States system and its law of nations has been challenged. The central thesis underlying this project is that sovereignty may have been the key element in the dynamics of early modern international law, but not the all-dominating factor. It was in fact a dualistic system. The late 17th and early 18th centuries saw sovereignty diminish and international society strengthen to the detriment of a State s autonomy in the process of Europe s attempt to overcome the chaos of the Reformation era (1540-1648). As such, the changes of the 20th century do not constitute such a radical breach with views and practices of the 18th and 19th centuries as it is currently accepted. While traditional historiography has one-sidedly stressed the elements of discontinuity, it is important to look at the elements of continuity as well. In the new sub-programme, the gradual evolution of the international legal order will be scrutinised in more detail than it was possible to achieve until now. Whereas before, research was mostly conducted on the basis of treaties, now increasingly diverse sources will be analysed. Also, the scope of subjects will be widened. Whereas previous research pertained almost exclusively to peacemaking, now the laws of war in their broadest sense will be included in the debate. The era covered (1500-present) will not be analysed from the perspective of a dialectical opposition of the modern (before 1919) and the post-modern paradigms (after 1919). This era is seen instead as the era of interstate law , which should be subdivided into several shorter periods, of which the 20th century (1919-1990) is just another example. In this light, the revolution of international law of the 20th century heralded a new phase in the to a large extent continuous history of inter-state law . The divergences between the different systems of inter-state law have consequences for the evolution of the State , from the dynastic State-complexes of the early modern period to the nation-states of the 20th century. Through the study of some central features of the international legal order, the researchers aim to map and define the different phases of the inter-state era . The rewriting of the history of international law during the era of the State (since 1500) may yield a better insight into the important evolution the international legal order has been undergoing since the end of the Cold War (1990). A more nuanced view on the definition and role of the State in the different phases of the inter-state legal order will allow for a better assessment of current evolution. Are we truly experiencing a paradigm shift? Is the current evolution the dawn of an era where international law becomes something other than inter-state law, or is this just a new phase in the evolution of inter-state law in which the State takes on new characteristics and a new role?

When Facebook blocked my personal account for 30 days (no "liking" or status updates, or posts allowed) my first reaction was fury, quickly followed by panic.
A Reddit user helpfully described his history of serial rapes in detail, and commenters rose to the occasion with stories of their own.
Thanks to Tosh, I became keenly aware of just how visible the photos on the Adipositivity Project were. My dimpled badonk was just a few clicks away from Comedy Central and a seething army of lame wisecracks.

Signs and Symptoms
Symptoms and signs of lupus are highly variable and may include:
- Muscle pain
- Arthritis-like pain in one or more joints (but no or little joint damage)
- Red rash, particularly one resembling a butterfly across the nose and cheeks
- Fever
- Persistent fatigue
- Sensitivity to ultraviolet light
- Hair loss
- Inflammation and damage to organs and tissues, including the kidneys, lungs, heart, lining of the heart, central nervous system, and blood vessels
Kidney disease is a frequent occurrence in those with systemic lupus. Lupus causes glomerulonephritis, a condition that affects the kidney's ability to filter toxins, leading to kidney failure. Kidney involvement occurs more frequently in childhood onset compared to adult onset. Damage to other organs and tissues, such as the heart and central nervous system, can lead to complications including seizures, depression, psychoses or headaches, blood clots leading to strokes, and pulmonary embolisms.
Symptoms of SLE may come and go over time and vary from person to person. They may worsen abruptly and then die down. Flare-ups may be triggered by changes in someone's health status, such as physical or emotional stressors, and/or by outside stimulants such as exposure to sunlight. Pregnant women may experience flare-ups during pregnancy or shortly after giving birth and may also have miscarriages.
Drug-induced SLE may occur with the use of certain drugs, such as chlorpromazine, methyldopa, hydralazine, and procainamide, resulting in unexpected onset of SLE symptoms. These symptoms will generally resolve upon discontinuation of the drug. This type of SLE is usually less severe and has fewer associated complications such as kidney or central nervous system involvement.

Judged: 2 2 2 Please do your homework before going here or sening someone here. It is as close to a cult as I have ever seen. If you have questions you can e-mail them to me at firstname.lastname@example.com. I will answer them truthfully based on my first hand knowledge and experience. |
Judged: 5 2 2 So let me ask you this TJ: Before you entered TC, where you the perfect, righteous, model citizen? So let me understand, for 8 of the 11 months you were there, TC caused you harm by submitting you to learning how to serve others instead of serving your master of drugs and alcohol and reaking havoc and pain on your family and friends? Sounds like TC really messed up your life! They have their faults, no one is perfect. At least they are trying to do something about losers like you. Suck it up and be GRATEFUL that the good Lord used TC to help you find your way to AA and a sober life. You know why so many people fail when they leave these programs? Because there is no one out there in the real world to continue to hold them accountable. The biggest downfall with TC is that there is no therapy for the loved ones who don't have a clue that your in no way cured of the desease, just the symptoms. These loved ones also have no clue that the hurt they carry doesn't go away with the inflated expectations that the abuser is going to be perfect. Maybe that's your problem TJ. You didn't walk out of TC a perfect person and you need to blame someone for that? You might want to consider getting set up with a good therapist. I think your time would be better well spent trying to figure out what is wrong with you instead of what is wrong with TC! |

"I tell the painful truth" Since: Dec 06 341 |
Judged: 4 2 1 Nice try Mikie. I went to the Action 9 website and read the article. I then proceeded to e-mail the station and ask them if they bothered to 'investigate' Mr. Keirnan and Mr. Knight to see if the victims of the horrendous crimes they committed and were convicted of would give them a recommendation of being honest and truthful of what they are saying. It makes me sick to think that poor Mr. Kiernan was forced to work a 40 hour week and only make 33 cents when he could of been in prison for 15 years, surrendering parts of his body to buy a cigarette! Who's committing the worst crimes against society here? I am glad to send money to any T.C. if it means the idiots who end up in T.C.will be held accountable for their actions. Move on Mikie and do something good with your life instead of trying to destroy others. |
"I tell the painful truth" Since: Dec 06 341 |
Judged: 2 1 You're unhappy because the truth about Teen Challenge is coming out step by step. They are the ones who are finally being held accountable for their actions. Being the good Christian that you are, shouldn't you be praying for Mr. Kiernan? Or are you only a Christian when it benefits you? Sounds just like a Teen Challenge grad. |
Judged: 3 2 1 Your really smart there Mikie. However, I am not a T.C. grad for your information. I would give you my name so you can verify it, but I really don't trust you with that information. How nice of you to call me a'good Christian'. What is that anyway? Tell me your definition of a good christian please! As far as praying for Mr. Kiernan, I pray more often than you will ever know for those who know not what they do(like alcoholics, drug addicts, sexual predators,etc.) and for the victims of those they have hurt! Yes Mikie, I am a victim of abuse. Most recently by a crack addict who came out of T.C. and stayed clean for almost 3 years. Because she refused to help herself and get follow-up care, she got an attitude like so many of the addicts I have been acquainted to, that the world owed them and because she didn't get what she wanted, she started using again. Not wanting to go into T.C. or any other help organization because of the 'horrible way' all these places treated her, I made the mistake of taking her in. Yeah, she stayed clean for a whole 3 weeks and she said I was her Savior, until I told her that she needed to get a job and start taking RESPONSIBILITY for her life and the next thing I know, she robs me and heads out to Chicago, hooks up with drug dealer and forced her family to call the law because she was threatening them with a gun! So I guess your right when you say once an addict, always an addict. So tell me, what do you expect society to do with the likes of you then? Give you a second chance? I don't have it in me to keep helping people like you and I sure in the heck cannot afford being ripped off again. If I'm going to lose money, I would much rather give it to to Places like T.C. who are willing to go that extra step to help someone like you and give them a second chance. So what if I was a T.C. grad? Am I less of a person in your book because of it? Oh I'm sorry, your a jounalism major so that puts you way up there as far as having any class or a good heart is concerned. Get real Mikie and stop blaming people for your sorry state of affairs. Grow up and get a life! |
Judged: 6 4 3 |
Judged: 2 1 want people to respect you when you have not earned any at all! The people who have graduated T.C. are very respected in our community. |
Judged: 3 2 2 Wow, all I offered was to share my experience. Your response is typical of the mis-informed public of West MI TC. Instead of talking to me about my situation you attacked me. Nice christian attitude. This was very typical at TC. When I would ask about things I was confused about they turned it on me. Pastor Sam called me one of the "frozen chosen" because I was not raised in the Assemblies of God. He said "I didn't get it because I didn't speak in tongues". Again if anyone has questions they can e-mail me and I will answer their questions truthfully based on my experience. email@example.com |
"I tell the painful truth" Since: Dec 06 341 |
Judged: 2 1 No one "speaks in tongues." It is nothing but subconscious mimicking. |
Judged: 1 1 |
Judged: 1 1 1 Sounds like a typical white lie to me; a modicum of truth mixed with...well lies! I know Pastor Sam. He is very sensitive to the Holy Spirit. I won't say anymore unless I hear both sides of the conversation. But I can say this. Almost all who leave Teen Challenge early, or are kicked out, end up being disgruntled selfish whiners. How you handle it will determine whether you gain or lose ground in your relationship with Jesus Christ. One leaves Teen Challenge because he wants to. One gets kicked out of Teen Challenge because of rebelliousness and pride. They cannot bring themselves to be humble and take instruction; so instead they lash out, kind of like you are: So that you can draw in fellow sympathizers and make yourself feel better. It is all just avoidance of dealing with the problem at hand, the sin problem. Each situation is different of course. |

hmm, I got kicked out of muskegon teen challenge after being inducted in Flint teen challenge. being bipolar but not yet diagnosed was a big problem. Why does pastor Sam always flash the sign of pan while he is preaching too? lol. When I went back to Flint after being kicked out of Muskegon about 5 of the staff smoked crack and the success rate of graduates staying off drugs was 15% not 80% like what is preached. A number of the staff were also gay. Not too mention one of the staff, Freddie Johnson, stabbed me twice in the stomach with a file. If people really connected with God, Teen Challenge, and the world, would be a better place. It seems that all christian organizations get touched with the curse of the pharisees after existing for a while. God usually instills something on earth and after a time it is bogged down by the flesh. Thank God for revival. I don't want to judge anyone for all the weird things that happened in teen challenge to me (much more than I have mentioned.) I am trying to cut my teeth as a writer and I have plenty of stuff to write about from my interesting experiences. My family feels really bad about getting a court order to send me to Flint and Muskegon TC though.
I attended Western Mi TC. If you or anyone you know is thinking of going there, please do you homework and check it out throughly before hand.
I would be glad to answer anyones questions concerning WMTC based on my experience. E-Mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com. |

Iam very happy with this Item it looks and works well in my bathroom
Color is definitely oak and finish is more glossy than image. Fairly easy to put together but use your common sense when following the slightly incorrect directions. My door hangs a little skewed because the pilot holes weren't lined up properly but it's still very functional and attractive. It does come with a support strap to connect to the wall implying that it might not be completely sturdy. However, I'm not using it for anything weighty so it's been fine without it. I'm not planning on keeping this for a lifetime so all in all, I feel this was worth the money I spent.
My husband has assembled many things before without any problems. He told me this was a piece of junk. We had a fight about it. Save your relationship, don't buy it.
When I opened the package and began to remove the parts, the glass came out of the door, and the wood frame fell apart. I had to try several times to put the frame back together. The glass was heavy and made it difficult to glue. The glass was wonderfully strong and did not break. I am not wildly happy, but I am okay with the cabinet.
This cabinet was a little complicated to assemble. Once assembled it was a nice size for the small space I needed it to fit into my kitchen. It looks elegant and even though the oak color is darker than it appeared in the picture online it still works!
First of all, I ended up having to get another one because the first one arrived damaged - the box was really broken up and 2 of the 4 legs were smashed along with some cracks in the drawer front. I got the 2nd one & put it together and it was ugly with a capital UG. I ended up selling it on CraigsList after putting it together. Oh, and it wobbled. Even though the second one didn't arrive damaged, the feet were still uneven. The color is not at all representative - was an ugly brown faux wood look. All I can say is the person who bought it from me on CL had bad taste. I sold it for more than I paid, too!
I needed a narrow media stand so with a few added cord holes in the back it worked perfect for me. It was easy to put together, total time was less than hour. Quality is not the greatest but definetly in the range I was expecting for the price. It has some cheap finishing but when it's all staged you can not really tell. I'm very pleased.
Assembly was a nightmare, we love it but hated putting it together. I would pay 2 or 3 times the price to buy it assembled You must be very handy or prepare to burn it
It's frustrating to get a product and there are no instructions to be found. You cannot find the instructions online and customer service can only deliver in 3-5 business days. So now I have an unpacked assembly required stack of parts n my living room until instructions come.
Usually leaves our warehouse in 1-2 business days. *

TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Giants
The Pittsburgh Steelers will likely be without leading receiver Antonio Brown next Monday night when they host the Kansas City Chiefs.
Brown sprained his right ankle in last Sunday's 24-20 victory over the New York Giants. Coach Mike Tomlin called Brown's status ''very much in doubt.'' Brown leads the Steelers with 42 receptions and is second on the team with 499 receiving yards.
If Brown sits, it's likely Emmanuel Sanders will take Brown's spot in the starting lineup, with veteran Jerricho Cotchery moving up to starting slot receiver.
The Steelers will also be without safety Troy Polamalu, who will miss his fifth straight game and seventh overall with a right calf injury. Running back Jonathan Dwyer, who sat out last week with a right quad injury, is expected to play.

Kobe ON WRITING:
(note: sure, we all hate Kobe, but you gotta jack those moves/techniques/etc. that work!)
Dirk Nowitzki showed the world his step back jumper. Kobe Bryant watched Dirk win the 2010-2011 NBA Championship. Now, Kobe shoots Dirk's step back jumper.
Some people might slight Bryant for so clearly jacking "The Iron Leg." Not me. I think it's incredible. And awesome.
Dirk created the best post-Olajuwon post move in basketball, Kobe understood it's value, and put it in his game. That's why he's great — anything to get better. Last night, Bryant used it in the Playoffs.
You know, "imitation is the highest form of flattery," but before you go thinking Kobe's gone all mushy with the compliments…
"I improved his move. I can shoot mine from the three-point line. He can't do that… Dirk does it well, I do it better. Mine's a little sexier."
-Kobe Bryant
Kobe can do it all.

Garnett, Lee, Gasol miss Celtics-Grizzlies game
Saturday - 3/23/2013, 9:40pm  ET
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- Kevin Garnett and Courtney Lee missed the Celtics' game Saturday night against Memphis with left ankle injuries, while Grizzlies center Marc Gasol sat out with an abdominal tear.
Memphis forward Zach Randolph didn't start because of what coach Lionel Hollins called an internal matter.
Gasol was listed as "out indefinitely," on a team report.
Randolph leads the team with 11.6 rebounds per game. In the past, he has sat out the start of games for being late to practice or a shootaround. He entered the game near the midway point of the first quarter.
Jeff Green started in Garnett's place, while Jason Terry replaced Lee in Boston's starting lineup.
Celtics coach Doc Rivers didn't know when Garnett hurt his ankle. The Celtics' second-leading scorer at 14.9 points, he had 16 points and 12 rebounds in Boston's 104-94 loss at Dallas on Friday night.
"I don't know if (Garnett) hurt it in the game (Friday) night, or if it has been a couple of games. I have no idea," Rivers said before the game. "Whenever somebody does anything with an ankle, they do an MRI because that's what they do.
"So, him and Courtney, if Courtney hasn't had one, he'll have one too."
Lee, a 6-foot-5 guard, crumpled to the court with 1:21 left in the Dallas game after spraining his ankle.
Gasol had favored the abdominal injury for several games, including not jumping center to start recent games in order to avoid straining the injury. He is averaging 14.3 points and 7.8 rebounds.
Ed Davis Gasol and Darrell Arthur started for Randolph to open the game.

Support Parity for Natural Gas and Propane Vehicle Programs in the Clean Energy Jobs and Oil Company Accountability Act of 2010
On July 28, 2010, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) introduced the Clean Energy Jobs and Oil Company Accountability Act of 2010 (S. 3663). Included in the bill are financial incentives that offset the manufacture, purchase, and refueling infrastructure costs of natural gas vehicles at the expense of propane alternatives. The propane industry believes there is no credible policy reason to provide incentives to our competitors in the natural gas industry and not apply the same incentives to propane. Any final energy bill should include a more equitable approach to incentivizing alternative fuels and alternative fuel vehicle use, an approach that places natural gas and propane vehicle incentive programs on equal footing.

Review of Madrid
Book flights to Madrid for world-class art, tasty tapas, Sunday markets and street buzz.
Things to do
In Madrid's Reina Sofia Museum, gaze in awe at Picasso's poignant Guernica painting,a monochrome masterpiece showing his visual statement against the horrors of the bombing of the Basque town of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War.
Sunday's lively El Rastro flea market in La Latina is a must on a Madrid city break. Go before 2pm to barter for trinkets, quirky fashions, antiques and handicrafts along the winding streets of one of Madrid's oldest residential neighbourhoods.
Flights to Madrid take you to a foodie's dream. Cosy up in an alcove inside the mesones or cellar bars along Cava San Miguel, near Plaza Mayor. Sip sangria and feast on traditional tapas like jamón serrano and tortilla española (omelette).
Join the madrileños (locals) for pre-dinner drinks and tapas snacks in Plaza Santa Ana's oak-panelled cervecerias where smart waiters serve thirst-quenching tipples from huge beer pumps. Save your sleep for the flight from Madrid.
When to go
KLM has frequent flights to Madrid. Catch live music on summertime Sundays at the Retiro Park bandstand and party with locals during May's Fiesta de San Isidro celebrations for Madrid's patron saint.

Aparte del Gernica y todos sus horrores, tambien se pueden visitar las tapias del Cementerio de Paracuellos del Jarama, para recordar los horrores del los asesinatos de cientos de reclusos sacados de las carceles de Madrid.

NCAA slams Penn State with $60 million fine
Penn State football was all but dismantled by an NCAA ruling that imposed a mountain of fines and penalties on the university football program and wiped away 111 of coach Joe Paterno's victories — all of his wins from 1998 to 2011, the period during which, according to the Freeh report, the coach helped cover up allegations of child sexual abuse.

Ed Ray, left, NCAA Executive Committee chair and Oregon State University president, answers questions about the penalties against Penn State during a news conference in Indianapolis, as NCAA President Mark Emmert stands by. The NCAA has slammed Penn State with an unprecedented series of penalties, including a $60 million fine and the loss of all coach Joe Paterno's victories from 1998 to 2011, in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.

The Road through Residency
The crisp white coat I'm wearing belies the coffee stains that have spattered my button-up shirt beneath it. The past 30 hours while I have been on call have left the white oxford littered with brown discolorations — a splash of Sumatra here, a few drops of Arabica there. I pull my glasses off as I set the coffee cup down gently on the counter, careful not to splatter my only clean white coat. One of the young interns comes up to query me before the attending is upon us.
"Mrs. B's white count is up," he says with a hint of regret. His face carries a feeling of shame, as if every patient must make a speedy and complete recovery before he releases them back into the wild.
"Why do you think that is?" I ask, prodding. I have already seen Mrs. B's white count, examined her, and figured out why her labs are slightly abnormal. But I know that if I tell him, he won't learn. Teach a man to fish ... you know the proverb.
"I'm not sure. It could be infectious, a urinary tract infection." He sits down and hangs his head in his hands. He has been up all night too. Looking at his fatigue, so obvious upon his face in rings and circles, I stop my Socratic questioning and tell him.
"Steroids. We started steroids, remember?"
"That's right! I forgot."
"It's fine," I say. "The good news is she can probably go home."
"You know, I just can't think after a night on call," he explains. He heads off to finish up before rounds.
I look at my watch to gauge how much time we'll have to round on patients, if we'll have enough, and whether I should take a few minutes to discuss a topic for the interns and medical students. As I'm running the list through my mind and sipping my coffee, our medical student arrives. Her eyes are bright and well-rested, and she is showered, smelling of lilac perfume and Dove soap. At this time in the morning after a night on call, you would sell your soul for a shower and a pillow.
"You look a little tired, Dr. Faber," she says.
"Jason," I correct her. "And yes, I am a little tired. But you get used to it."
"How many hours do you have to stay up?"
"Depends," I say. "Sometimes it's all night, sometimes you get two to three hours of sleep or more. But the experience is important, and it teaches you your limitations."
"Well I hope I can get several hours of sleep when I'm on call," she says.
"Conceivably, you might never have to worry about that." I proceed to tell her about the changes coming.
Throughout medical training, long in-hospital calls have been commonplace. Although many programs now have shift work — with interns and residents to handle the night shift — many still have interns stay overnight while on call every fourth day. The hope is that this experience, under the watchful eye of a resident, will give the newly minted physician a taste of long hours, which are common in the real world. I remember my time in the hospital as an intern, staying 30 hours and watching patients and their progressing or worsening state. Managing sick patients over the first 24 hours can be an exceptional, valuable learning experience.
Starting next July, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, the accrediting body for residency programs, has stipulated that interns be on call for no longer than 16 hours at a time. This could result in physicians never having to spend more than 16 hours in the hospital during their entire training. I fondly remember those long days on call, while young physicians years from now will shake their heads and say, "Nobody ever stays longer than 16 hours."
"So," the medical student asks, "do you think that means I won't get enough training?"
"I don't know if this change is good or bad," I tell her. "But I think my days of sleepless nights have made me more resilient, and ready for what the future has to bring."
Jason Faber, M.D., is a resident in the internal medicine program at Kettering Medical Center. He graduated from the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine in 2008 and holds an honors Bachelors of Arts degree from Xavier University.

About EllieI like probability and statistics and EL&U StackExchange! |
Thank you, thank you, thank you, TechDirt and Mike Masnick for sharing this with us! And thank you for so kindly posting the full text of the document.
I knew about the NRC having no reporting procedure to track breaches pertaining to accidental release of sensitive information, because I noticed an entry in the Federal Register (or somewhere similar) saying that they needed to draft and instate one, in October or November last year. I wasn't aware of the pervasive carelessness in so many other U.S. government departments though.
The SEC is my primary interest. Lax security increases exchange infrastructure vulnerability. There is another concern, namely, the always-tempting opportunity to exploit and profit from unauthorized access to material non-public information.
Hello CBimerrow formerly of IT support! I didn't know any other way to reply to you, about what I read on the TechDirt insider chat thingy. That's where y'all talk to each other and we get read access. You mentioned something that I noticed and winced at (just like you did, when you said, "it burns!") but no one talks about. Same as the reaction on TechDirt Insider chat; no one replied to you, re this
hxxp://gizmodo.com/sochi-official-our-shower-surveillance-footage-says-ho-1517435247?utm_campaign=so cialflow_gizmodo_facebook&utm_source=gizmodo_facebook&utm_medium=socialflow
I agree, it is unsightly! The UTM's are for Google, or other web analytics "campaign metrics". I strip them away whenever I post or send a URL. They look cheezy. Even if I'm using a URL shortener, I want that crud gone. I was curious why the person you were IM chatting with didn't post this instead,
Is it considered immoral or rude to excise the crud, because the URL creator can't surveil (track?) as well? That URL was so lengthy that it forced the sidebar chat widget to scroll out to 4 times width!
For etiquette's sake, I'll return to the current topic. Why don't these comments have any respect for IT? IT departments are NOT always clueless bureaucrats who don't know how to set a password other than to "password". Someone else described how their IT department isolated Macs because of PC viruses (I didn't say that quite right, it's down below). Just maybe, the IT guys know something that the users don't know, about security. The user's job, in this case, is to be a developer. IT doesn't sit around all day doing nothing. Their job, among other things, is to be real-time up to date about viruses. Macs are not immune, regardless of OS used. Even computers running Linux can be vulnerable.
As for getting in the way of business and customers, I learned the hard way that IT needs to be consulted. I worked on a project using PHI (protected health information). At the beginning, before we bid on the contract, one of our IT guys warned us that there would be problems with using VolP as part oF the dEliverable, that HIPAA didn't allow it, in that context. Client said it would be okay, but didn't check with their own IT guy, nor anyone else. So we did months of work and sure enough, our IT guy was right. We should have spent some time to see if he were correct, before proceeding further. We were still paid, nothing terrible happened. Client had to spend more though, for us to do (lots of tedious) changes.
IT security can be a huge pain to deal with, like a law enforcement bureaucracy in your midst, e.g. a visit from Tyler in Data Security was much worse than having the Assistant District Attorney stop by to "ask you a few questions"! It is management's job to reign in overzealous IT, or replace any who are incompetent.
Yes. This is a very convincing argument against DRM in HTML5. Urg... plug-in's.
I have never used a file sharing site, never illegally downloaded software, music, video or anything else. I'd be happy to give my computer to the MpAA, RIAA, NSA etc. to peruse. I'm very boring! Yet I still don't like the idea of DRM in HTML5. It will cause profound interoperability problems.
Are you certain about that? I don't see why he wouldn't get any salary. He should. He does work!
Jimmy Wales has a variety of shortcomings. I could find many examples of his vanity, accepting large cash honorariums for speaking engagements, sailing on Richard Branson's yacht etc. Nevertheless, Wikimedia Foundation should pay Jimmy Wales. Maybe they should pay him more than they do now. Maybe if he were paid better... well, I've said enough. Everyone who works as an employee of the Wikimedia Foundation should be paid a living wage.
Lots oF people use Wikipedia content, including the U.S. government. Google does too. They link to it for definitions in their help pages, as is their right, under the CC license.
This is all going on at the same time. First there is the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). That's what they renamed it! It was originally Trans-Atlantic Free Trade Agreement or TAFTA. It is so complicated and lengthy that it is difficult to understand any of it. I tried to read the document that Wikileaks kindly provided. I am certain that the opacity is by intent though. The CFC folks wrote this about the implications of TAFTA - TTIP in plain language.
Then I read a super creepy commentary by Vint Cerf via TechCrunch. He met with the head of SANS and two FCC commissioners and lots of other people at an off-the-record "privacy thought leaders" dinner in Washington D.C. a few nights ago. Immediately afterward, he made the creepy announcement about right to privacy being a transitory anomaly, unknown in human civilization until the 1960's, and an inevitable, necessary casualty of the "digital age".
And now... THIS! From what I can tell, Colum Lynch seems like a sensible person. This latest not-privacy scheme at the UN is something to be concerned about.
Unless circumstances have changed, Glenn Greenwald had all 30,000 to 50,000 of Snowden's documents. Glenn Greenwald is in Brazil, and not likely to be delivering the remaining documents to the NSA in Washington D.C. nor the NSA's Utah data center.
Whether the documents are destroyed or not isn't up to anyone but Greenwald. The Guardian is his employer, but I'm sure another newspaper would be happy to work with him, if The Guardian weren't.
Yes, school districts are agencies of the state. Here, the state is California, which is large and influential. One school district has implemented Geo Tracking. Another, larger district (Burbank) is already considering doing the same..
These are minors. First, they are protected under the Fourth Amendment. Where does the school district draw the line of in loco parentis, despite the child having one, or two, parents or legal guardians?
Even if this were limited to school, I wouldn't like it. It would be better for schools not to allow SMS, Twitter and Facebook during school hours, instead of this 24 hour per day/ 7 days per week surveillance. That is so wrong!
The school is using contractors. If there were a choice, the school district IT department would be required to observe privacy law and be less likely to exploit student information than an outside, private contractor. I'm just saying "what if", as this tracking, 24/7, of all minors is not ethical, whomever does it; with the exception of parents, as a personal family decision that should not be dictated by the school district, nor the state.
Rush Holt had finished his own education and started teaching when I started school at Swarthmore College. He was either an instructor or associate professor of physics.
He was well-liked at Swarthmore, He isn't an extremist about anything, despite Swarthmore College's extensive reputation as a bastion of communist-socialists and militant feminist-lesbians. Yes, they have free speech, as is their right. But their are many viewpoints held by students and academic staff at Swarthmore. I didn't realize that until years later. .
I agree with you, Prashanth. I have followed Rush Holt's career, though not that observantly. He is one of the only members of the current Congress that I respect and trust, unequivocally. I hope I can say that in five years, or ten, and that he remains in public office.
Yes, Congress IS still required to disclose financial information. They did NOT exempt themselves from the provisions of the STOCK law.
This article here, in TechDirt, is being quoted as evidence that the law was rolled back in its entirety. That is not true.
You're right. But they'll ruin our physical infrastructure, goods and services supply chains, and society as we wait for them to realize that.
Ninja, don't talk to him like that! What is your problem? You said:
"why are you so bitter ootb? did someone molest you when you were a kid?"
Say whatever else you want. Call him a an a-hole, or an idiot, or Communist, or unpatriotic, or stupid. DON'T SAY THAT THOUGH. It is cruel, excessive, unnecessary. It made me cry. And no, I'm not him, I'm Ellie Kesselman. I wasn't "molested when I was a kid", and I wasn't fortunate enough to be able to have children.
Ad hominem attacks are facile, but, call me a bad and illogical person, I sometimes find them amusing. Trolls can be amusing too. They usually behave, or leave you unscathed, if you recognize and appreciate the genuine aspects of humor, or sorrow/ bitterness in what they say.
This isn't about being "politically correct", or LBGTQ friendly, or feminist or not being racist, or any of that. It transcends all of it. How dare you toss out remarks about being molested as a child as ridicule in a comment thread. Don't tell me to "lighten up" either. With so many other creative, cruel, clever insults available, you say THAT? You've reached the nadir of worthless.
This is becoming impossible for me to ignore, that
"gun control, anti-abortion restrictions, immigration, gay marriage / civil union rights, medical marijuana, birth control, or any of the other hot topics [are] meant to distract the public from what's REALLY going on".
Seems that way to me too. Sadly, it also seems that regulations, which should help, are being used to serve other, quite separate agendas.
Firedoglake sourced it from The Hill, which says that the more stringent disclosure and reporting requirements will still apply to the president, vice president, members of Congress, candidates for Congress, and some nominees. This is the ridiculous part (via Obama signs STOCK stepback):
[The law] would have required roughly 28,000 senior government officials to post their financial information online, and had come under harsh criticism from federal government employee unions.There are 28,000 senior government officials EXCLUDING all the members of Congress?! Or considered senior enough such that disclosure of financial information on a publicly available online database was:
...found to be problematic and even dangerous for high-ranking government workers... it could needlessly threaten the safety of government employees abroad, as well as make it difficult to attract and retain talent in the public sector.Obama shouldn't have signed it into law if it were going to endanger government employees posted overseas! But he did, to get a big flashy spotlight of attention back when he wanted to be popular. Then he gets most of it repealed quickly, over a weekend, with complicity of both parties. We aren't idiots! That makes me feel MORE distrustful of government, rather than less.
I've been aware of Teri Buhl's drama for years. I never was privy to her "elite" protected Twitter feed. Annoying that she was a journalist who reported on news that wasn't accessible to the public (me)! She's vacillated between protected-on, protected-off for her Twitter feed for awhile. Teri Buhl news stories are always high-drama!
TechDirt showed remarkable restraint and courtesy. Buhl comes off as very arrogant and presumptuous. This is especially so, as she has a pending court case against her for harassment of a minor.
Weird spelling, "jurno". That's not a "SoCal Trojan" nor a New Canaan expression. This made me laugh:
It is surprising that she's never seen journalists ignore requests to keep her tweets private, though perhaps it's because there's never been any reason to quote her prior to this.Given my low-level curiosity about her seeming (self-)importance for years, I enjoyed this post, and the one prior, immensely. Thank you.
The Verge is a fine one to talk! They shamelessly scraped many paragraphs of content yesterday about an important tech legal type news story, from Reuters UK. I could barely find the link, it was tiny with only one word of anchor text, for attribution. They really shouldn't be complaining so loudly about HuffPo!
For you in particular, That Anonymous Coward. I read an earlier article of yours, here on TechDirt circa 2011
about a company's awful behavior toward a person who found a security vulnerability. I really wanted to talk to you, or someone, about that. Please?
If you wire transfer the proceeds that you receive for your novel, regardless of the subject matter, to terrorists, you will likely have problems. As a British citizen, if you reside in the U.K., I don't think the U.S. government will be arresting you though. It would be U.K. law enforcement, as they do not encourage the funding of terrorist organizations.
It isn't the publisher that's they're saying is the problem. The government seized the money received as an advance payment for the graphic novel. The government seized it because they believe that the authors of the novel have transferred that money to a terrorist organization.
Although... maybe I understand your point now... there aren't enough details in the TechDirt post to tell. If the publisher is directly transferring the advance payment for the graphic novel to the terrorists, rather than to the authors, that would be a problem. In that case, both the authors (who would have had to request their advance payment be made to someone else), and the publishers who had completed the money transfer would be at fault.
You're right: The funds seizure needs to be based on specific evidence, which shouldn't be a problem to obtain, if it exists.
Of course, you're correct. It is not new, nor does it only happen to books, or obscure works. Movies too, such as "The Manchurian Candidate" were banned. In that situation, the movie was pulled from theatres after release, with a requirement that re-release be allowed after the passage of 25 years. It is a good movie, starring Frank Sinatra and Angela Murder-She-Wrote. I saw it a few years ago. (How did the government decide that 25 years was the right length of time to wait, I wonder?)
Zbigniew, thank you for the URL to that SSRN article! It looks good, based on the abstract. Especially nice: It distinguishes between software patents and patents in other fields where patent law remains functional (as it was for most patents in the past e.g. chemical engineering).
In return, you and others might like browsing through the Patent Reform Group items that I just found on scholarly article bookmarking site, CiteULike.
Oh crud! Never mind. I just realized that Mike Masnick already linked directly to the data download page in this article. Well, I'll just be grateful, having nothing to offer in return.

NEW ORLEANS -- Windows Server 2003 certification is a driving curiosity, but not an imminent necessity according to IT pros attending MCP magazine's TechMentor conference and expo.
Microsoft recently announced new certification tracks for Windows Server 2003, which were based on an extensive job task analysis survey that involved more than 2,500 people in 100 countries, said Microsoft certification product manager Ken Rosen at a Wednesday night panel "Ask Microsoft: New Certifications for Windows Server 2003."
Rosen called the new Windows Server 2003 certification requirements "the most valid, relevant certification tracks we have ever introduced."
Based on a "job task matrix" developed during their research, Microsoft said that it found a 60% overlap in the duties of MCSAs and MCSEs. The new certification curriculum has been designed to avoid redundancy and equip students with a training mix that's better suited to the realities of everyday tasks.
Joel Yoker, a Microsoft certification planner, said that the company expected a gradual adoption of the new certification by Windows professionals. Redmond will allow existing MCSEs and MCSAs to take the Windows Server 2003 upgrade exam as many times as they want until they pass. New exams for the MCSA will be available in early August and for the MCSE later that same month.
Most of those in attendance at this week's conference said that they were more interested in familiarizing themselves with the new platform
Requires Free Membership to View
"I want to get an overview of the 2003 environment as a whole, and figure out how it will relate to my responsibilities in the next few years," said Jane Wright, a security expert from the Tennessee Valley Authority. "Upgrading my MCSE is a long way down the road yet."
For admins planning an early certification upgrade path, the reasons to go for the new credential were personal. Rob Frenier, a systems administrator for Siemens Building Technologies, is already MCSE-certified and eager to learn more about Windows Server 2003 because his company is an early technology adopter. He said that Siemens' Active Directory rollout included a network of more than 300,000 users and is one of the largest AD deployments in the country.
But Frenier said that his interest in advancing his MCSE status to Windows Server 2003 is not yet a job requirement. He wants to stay current in anticipation of a company-wide migration to the new platform, which could happen as soon as next year.
MCSA Joe Currenti is a network administrator for Englehardt Systems in New York and is part of a team that is responsible for the everyday workings of a commodities trading floor. Currenti has no plans to attend any of the Windows Server 2003 sessions at the conference, but he will be taking certification upgrade classes when he gets back home (as soon as they are offered).
"I like to stay abreast of current certifications for my own personal interests and to create my own niche," he said.
David Borges is a network engineer for Bosch Rexroth in Michigan who is working on adding a Windows Server 2003 MCSE to the existing MCP at the end of his name. Borges expects his company to eventually migrate to 2003, and he has downloaded a copy of the beta in order to stay ahead of any corporate decisions.
"I can't make mistakes when the time comes. I am impressed with the beta and want to stay one step ahead of the decision makers at the company."

Inside Scoop: Cooking apps are a chef's best tool Video
Inside Scoop: Cooking apps are a chef's best tool Video Transcript
-Hey everyone, welcome to the Inside Scoop. I'm CNET's Kara Tsuboi joined by Jaymar Cabebe, associate editor. And well, viewers, it's the time of year we're all cooking big family meals for the holidays and Jaymar has got a few apps, Android apps,-- -Right. -that might be able to help with the process. -Yeah. -Jaymar, what's your first go-to holiday cooking app? -Well, the first one I really like is called In The Kitchen. It's made by the Food Network, and you know, I'm a pretty big fan of the Food Network. I like some of their celebrity chefs. And one of the great things about the app is that you can actually search by celebrity chef. So you can just go through some of their profiles, click on the one that you like, and look at some of their favorite recipes. -Like if you just love Bobby Flay and wanna grill that bird and all of its sides. -[unk] Some southwest action in there, yeah. -Yeah, I like that. -Yeah. -Is that a free app? -Totally. Oh, actually, no sorry. It's $1.99. -Okay, but pretty well worth it, it sounds like to get the-- -Yeah. -the recipes of celebrities. -Yeah, yeah. And-- And they're all in there, all of your favorites. Some of-- Some of the chefs, they only have a few recipes in there. There's like Morimoto. I think he only has like five recipes in there, but some of the other ones have literally thousands of their recipes in there. -Very cool. -Yeah. -What's the next app that you like? -It's called Big Oven and that has over 250,000 recipes in it and that's really the reason that I like that one. It's the biggest kitchen database I've ever seen. Some of the other things it offers is a kitchen timer-- -Useful. -which is really important. Yeah. -Yeah. -And then there's a unit conversion tool. -To go from grams to ounces or-- -Or like pints to, you know, quarts-- -Yeah. -and things like that. -Yeah, because if you're following recipes that are, say, from, you know, England, they're gonna have way different measurements, of course. -Totally, yeah. -Nice. And third and final app? -It's called Cooklet. It's also free. Big Oven is free too. -Cool. -But Cooklet is free and one of the things I really like about Cooklet is the interface design. It's-- It's gorgeous. There's-- There's the screen called inspiration and it's a little bit like an Instagram-type screen, so it's picture based. You can just go through all of the photos of recipes and then click on the ones you like from there. -So this is a pretty new app, isn't it? -It is-- It's really young actually and-- and there's a lot of bugs in it because it's young, but I think to make up for that is-- is the interface design which is just-- it's gorgeous inarguably. -Very cool. Thank you so much for the tips. Jaymar Cabebe, associate editor. I'm Kara Tsuboi. Thanks for watching the Inside Scoop.
