Kathy WirtanenAdministrative, Facility& Conference AssistantP: (540) 464-7361F: (540) 464-7396 Center for Leadership & EthicsVMI, Marshall Hall500 Anderson DriveLexington, VA 24450
The Biennial VMI Leadership Conference is a top tier conference held every other year, attracting the faculty and cadets of the nation's top schools, representatives of the public and private sector, military, and non-profit audiences. The conference is designed to explore themes relating to ethical leadership. This 2012 conference theme, "Cheating, Lying and Honor in America's High Schools, Colleges and Universities," highlighted what many have referred to as a national epidemic. Cheating is real problem with far-reaching implications that cannot be ignored. A major goal of this conference was to begin the discussion – to give students and faculty alike, a chance to get it right.
Cheating in America's classrooms, in high schools and on college campuses, has become an epidemic. Researchers estimate 60% of high school students cheated on a test in the past year and one-third plagiarized from the internet. From 70% to 83% of college undergraduates cheat and in business schools 56% admit academic dishonesty in the past year.[1] People who cheat as students are more likely to cheat as adults than those who do not.[2]
[1]J. Stephens & H. Nicholson, "Cases of incongruity: exploring the divide between adolescents' beliefs and behavior related to academic dishonesty," Educational Studies, 34(4): 361-376.
[2]G. Lovett-Hooper, M. Komarraju, R. Weston, & S. Dollinger, "Is Plagiarism a Forerunner of Other Deviance? Imagined Futures of Academically Dishonest Students," Ethics & Behavior, 17(3):323-336).
A great deal of research indicates there is no "cheater profile." Males may be more likely to cheat than females,[1] but results vary. There is no difference between males and females. There is no difference between low and high achievers. There is no difference between students who think cheating is wrong cheat and those who don't.[2] Internally motivated students who are trying to master a skill or competency are less likely to cheat than students who are driven by external forces like grades, test results, or a high-paying job.[3]
[1]D. Rettinger, A. Jordan, F. Peschiera, "Evaluating the Motivation of Other Students to Cheat: A Vignette Experiment," Research in Higher Education, 45(8): 873-890.
[2]Stephens & Nicholson.
[3]Stephens & Nicholson; Rettinger, Jordan, & Peschiera.
Students cheat for a variety of reasons. Some cheat to make a good impression.[1] Some blame their teachers. Others blame the situation. They cheat to get good grades. They cheat to get accepted into elite universities. They cheat because they see others getting away with it. They cheat to have the chance at a good job. They cheat because they have a fear of failure. They cheat because they are more worried about grades than learning new skills.[2]
[1]Wowra, S., "Moral Identities, Social Anxiety, And Academic Dishonesty Among American College Students, Ethics & Behavior, 17(3):303-321.
[2] Stephens & Nicholson.
A combination of teacher and student behaviors has been shown to reduce the incidence of cheating. Teachers need to tell students what constitutes cheating. Teachers need to discuss with students why cheating is morally wrong and emphasize the importance of developing a skill or competency rather than grades or results on tests. Teachers should use interim goals and constructive feedback.[1]

Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Forged Carbon Watch For 2009
Filed under: Timepieces / Watches
The "non initiated" who aren't watch enthusiasts won't be able to appreciate all that goes into this watch as it appears merely "nice." There are no visual clues that the case is so hard to make in this instance, and you have no idea that inside the watch a brand new Audemars Piguet in-house made caliber 3126/3840 automatic mechanical chronograph movement. The movement even has a solid gold rotor, also hidden from view. Watches like this are meant to impress the owner, and the few people they encounter who are aware of what the watch really is all about. The dial of the watch is Yellow-Jacket chic with the typical "Mega Tapestry" pattern on the dial that most Royal Oak Offshore watches receive. The tachymeter scale on the chapter ring is in yellow with black numerals while the strong looking Arabic hour numerals also enjoy the pleasant yellow hue. The crown and pushers are covered with natural rubber. Last is the sculpted alligator strap with deployment clasp and yellow contrast stitching. Certainly not love at first site for all watch lovers, but I have a feeling a few of you out there are taken by the bold looks of this watch - especially to match your yellow shoes. Price for the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Forged Carbon watch is probably in the $35,000 - $50,000 range.

MLANET Style GuideCoding PreferencesMLANET follows the coding conventions established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) for Transitional HTML 4.01. MLA has devised some additional preferences. Alt and Title TagsUse an alt tag and title tag for every graphic item. AnchorsSet anchors with numbers beginning with "1" on any Web page. Do not use words or abbreviations; they are more difficult to code and correct in longer documents. Set each anchor two lines above the appropriate header so that the type appears below the top window margin when opened. All pages should include a "top" anchor at the top of the page to support any "top of page" graphics. CapitalizationCapitalize each word in subheads. Do not type any words in all caps. CenteringOnly center tables and table of contents boxes. Some illustrations and photographs may also be centered. Header 2 is the only centered type. All other copy should be flush left. Do not justify any text. DownloadsIndicate that an item is available to download by using the download graphic ( or ) and list the file type and size in parentheses (e.g., PDF, 23KB). Email LinksDo not list the email address. Highlight the person' or institution's name and use the <mailto> tag to link to a mailbox. Include a subject line for every hot email address. Linked GraphicsDelete any additional character spaces after any link tags for a graphic. Otherwise, the extra space will appear as an empty underline next to the graphic in some browsers (applies to text between <a href> and </a> tags). Do not include a border around graphics that serve as links. Linked TextDelete any additional character spaces after any linked text in a bulleted list. Otherwise, the extra space will appear as an empty underline on the final page (applies to text between <a href> and </a> tags). Paragraph TagUse the paragraph format for all copy and graphics, except in tables. The <p> setting in the MLANET cascading style sheet sets the left margin properly.

Archives Record Object #: 1999.13.1 Donor: Pearl Franck Description: Celebration for the 25th Anniversary of the State of Israel, May 1973. L to R: Bernie Rosenberg (celebration chair for Jewish Community Council of Greater Washington), D.C. Mayor Walter Washington, and Isaac Franck (executive director of the Jewish Community Council of Greater Washington).
Background: Isaac Franck became executive director of the Jewish Community Council of Greater Washington in 1949. Franck, working with such influential Council presidents as Rabbi Isadore Breslau, Aaron Goldman, Albert E. Arent, Louis Grossberg, and Seymour D. Wolf, led the Community Council as it addressed a wide range of social and political problems.
Isaac Franck (lower right) at the 1963 March for Jobs and Freedom
While the Council was formed to serve the local Jewish community, it did not shy away from issues that affected the greater good. Among these were issues of civil rights and desegregation, education, assistance to the poor, separation of church and state, equal opportunity, and Home Rule for the District of Columbia. For example, in 1953, the Council lent its name to the Thompson's Restaurant court case, decided by the Supreme Court. The case ended segregation in public accommodations in Washington, D.C. Following desegregation of public schools the subsequent year, the Council worked with city and religious leaders to encourage a peaceful transition. In 1963, Franck arranged for Martin Luther King, Jr., to address a citywide meeting at Adas Israel. That August, King returned to Washington to give his "I Have a Dream" speech at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. The Council coordinated local Jewish involvement in the historic event.
When Isaac Franck retired in 1973, Jewish Community Council membership had more than tripled. The Washington Post wrote that he "gave [the Jewish community] not only a degree of cohesion, he also sought for it a special place because of its location in the nation's capital." During Franck's tenure, the Council grew dramatically and worked with other organizations and faiths. He enabled 173 local organizations to speak as one while taking action on a wide range of community matters.
Today, the Council continues its important work with a new organizational name, the Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Washington.

Fog on and off at Tomales Point in Point Reyes
Why is hiking through fog so captivating? For me, I wonder what's ahead, even if it's a trail I've been on many times.

Maryland U.S. Senate candidates (October 28, 2012) |
In his bid for a second six-year term, U.S. Sen. Benjamin L. Cardin, D-Md., has three opponents in the Nov. 6 general election.
Cardin was elected to the Senate in 2006 and took office in 2007.
His Republican opponent is first-time candidate Dan Bongino, a former U.S. Secret Service agent.
The two other candidates on the ballot are Libertarian Dean Ahmad and Rob Sobhani, who is unaffiliated.
Sobhani, a businessman, has run twice for a Senate seat before. He finished third in a Republican primary in 1992 and second in a Republican primary in 2000.
Four other people have registered to be eligible as write-in candidates in this year's general election — Lih Young, Mary Podlesak, Brandy Baker and Ed Tinus.
Cardin, 69, of Baltimore, served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1987 to 2007.
Before that, he served in the Maryland House of Delegates from 1967 to 1986. He was House speaker from 1979 to 1986.
His website lists three of his top priorities as creating jobs, protecting the Chesapeake Bay and ensuring affordable, quality health insurance coverage.
The website says Cardin pushed to have a guaranteed dental benefit included in the Children's Health Insurance Program and an $8,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
He is on the Finance, Foreign Relations, Environment and Public Works, Budget, and Small Business committees.
Bongino's website has four "principles for prosperity" as his platform: reducing tax rates and simplifying the tax code; prioritizing education through ideas such as school choice and merit-based pay for educators; reforming immigration by securing the borders and streamlining the process for legal immigration; and encouraging foreign investment.
Cardin won the Democratic primary in April over eight challengers, including state Sen. C. Anthony Muse of Prince George's County.
Bongino, 37, of Severna Park, Md., captured the Republican nomination by defeating nine opponents.
Sobhani, 52, of Potomac, Md., the founder and chief executive officer of Caspian Group Holdings, got into this year's race as an unaffiliated candidate in June.
He is proposing to line up $3 billion to build upper decks over interstates 495 and 695 and $1 billion to reconstruct residential homes in inner-city Baltimore, both through public-private partnerships. He also is pledging to secure $1 billion in exports for Maryland-based companies and $500 million for cancer research and treatment in Maryland, his campaign website says.
Ahmad, 64, of Bethesda, Md., a consultant with a background in astronomy and astrophysics, lists four main platform points on his website: no more bailouts; restore civil liberties; end the deficit and reduce the debt; and stop the wars.
U.S. senators are paid $174,000 a year.

Game Overview
The game follows the movie in many respects but is not a mirror of the movie. The virtual characters in the movie, who are human in reality, do not exist in the game. The enemy or NDA are ever present and must be dealt with to obtain your goal. The goal of each mission is different and along the way you may collect Spirits that can be used to upgrade your Staff, Bow, Arrows and your abilities. Some of the Spirits are in locations that can only accessed using the Wasp. To do this you must use the Wii Plus controller, a standard controller will not control the Wasp. The other items that may be collected are Totems and Relics.
The game was designed around the Wii system with some unusual attributes. The Wii balance board can be used to fly the Banshee, the Wii Plus can be used to control the Wasp and at any time during the game another player can drop into the game by simply turning on another controller. What is fantastic about the second player option is that the two players are on the same screen, not a split screen as with most games. This gives the game more depth and realism.

Inside Collection (Course): Comparative Phonology Using Wordcorr
Summary: The data you will analyze appear on the Data panel. It provides means to type in new data, including a convenient way of handling IPA phonetic characters, and to edit data already entered. Along with the Data panel, the File menu gives you a way to back up the data and analysis in your collection at any time, and to import electronic data from elsewhere, including from spreadsheets.
The Data panel is one of the seven action panels you can select by clicking on the tabs at the top of the Wordcorr display. It is where you type in and edit the word lists that contain the raw language data you plan to compare.
The upper part of the Data panel has to do with managing entries, which contain words that mean approximately the same thing (like words for "canoe") in all the speech varieties in the collection. The lower part has to do with managing the individual data items for each variety.
So the buttons in the upper rows let you work with entries:

Writing a column like this, it is always a good idea to have a different mix of subject matter each week to keep things interesting for readers. Well, someone please tell that to Central Falls.
That unfortunate municipality just canãt seem to keep itself out of the headlines, so weãll have to keep discussing it here.
Besides, if you live in Rhode Island and you think whatãs going on in Central Falls doesnãt matter to you, then youãve got another thing coming.
As this was being written late last week, U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Frank Bailey just handed the cityãs receiverãs office its first judicial setback, saying the school department is beyond the reach of its powers because they are, in effect, no longer part of the city.
It can no longer be said that the structure of the cityãs government includes the care, control, and management of the schools, which is precisely the business of the school district?
Bailey said that in a 59-page decision that rejected Receiver Robert Flandersã assertion that the school district is part of the cityãand therefore the debts and contract obligations of the school district are obligations of the cityãwhich would have allowed him to throw out the teachersã contract and take other unilateral actions to reduce spending as he did on the municipal side.
Bailey accepted the argument of the Central Falls Teachers Union and other unions representing school employees that when Central Falls amended its charter in 2007 to, among other things, remove a reference to the ãSchool Committee,ããwhich had been abolished when the state took over the schools in 1991ã the city and its schools parted ways.
That amendment, the judge ruled, ãeffectively severed the cityãs constitutional connection to the school district.ã The political and constitutional separation of the school district from the city, he declared, is complete.
The thing is, I donãt see anywhere in the decision where Bailey directly ties Central Fallsã schools to the state, either. An argument could be made that he has made it a free-floating entity ruled only by the Board of Trustees, which has been working as a sort of school committee.
Bailey leaves his options open, saying: ãI do not suggest that this state of affairs (the divorce of the schools from the city) is not temporary or provisional. Still, the court cannot know the future and, in any event, must judge this controversy according to present circumstances, not circumstances as they may yet develop.ã
That sounds like legalese for ãthis baby is someone elseãs problem.ã
If the political and constitutional separation of the school district from the city is indeed complete, as the judge stated so emphatically, can the city wash its hands of the responsibility to pony up any money to fund school operations? If so, then what? Is the state on the hook? Or could it also back away, leaving, as the judge said, the Board of Trustees in charge and responsible for finding a way to fund the schools? What are they going to do, pass the hat at their next meeting? Organize a bake sale? Sell really, really good chocolate chip cookies for $1 million each?
The immediate upshot of this is that Flanders was hoping to rip up the schoolsã labor contracts and demand that the unions renegotiate new ones with him. Now his is going to have to ask very nicely and hope the unions will agree to changes.
Technically, the judgeãs decision merely rejected Flanders? motion for a summary judgment and he actually left the door ajar for the dispute to go to a trial. But the 59 pages make it pretty clear that the unions won and
Flanders lost, and a trial would likely not change the judgeãs mind. But weãll know for sure after Bailey meets with the lawyers.
That was just one of Flandersã woes last week.
Another was the ACLUãs lawsuit against him for allegedly delegating some of his duties to Chief of Staff Gayle Corrigan. Flanders bluntly rejects the premise of the suit and clearly considers it little more than a nuisance.
He calls the shots and he signs the orders. If he wants to send Corrigan out to catch the flak from angry citizens instead of absorbing the abuse himself, who is to say he canãt? Thatãs the brave new world of receivership, a place that doesnãt seem all that accommodating to the niceties of civil liberties.
In a bit of good news for the receiver, there was apparently a last-minute flood of applications from people who want to sit on the Charter Review Commission Flanders is forming.
I donãt want to sound like Negative Nate here, but a nine-member commission, whose members will be hand-picked by Flanders and whose mission, it would seem at the outset, is to come up with a charter amendment abandoning the elected mayoral office and swapping it for an appointed city manager? It ainãt going to happen. No way, no how.
If that amendment is seen as the work of nine collaborators of the receiver, looking to dump the popular mayor, voters are going to hoot it right off the ballot.
Flanders simply hasnãt generated the good will in Central Falls to pull something like that off. Almost anything perceived by the citizenry as his doing is bound to be rejected outright. If Flanders were to go head-to-head against Mayor Charles Moreau in a vote of Central Falls residents, the receiver would be hard-pressed to match the 22 percent of the vote challenger Hipolito Fontes received during the last election in 2009.
Not only that, but in the last two years the people of Central Falls have had quite enough of not having a say in who will govern them. They are going to want to vote for the guy or gal who will be the next leader of their city, no matter who they pick. They are quite likely to rally around the deposed Charles Moreau who, along with the ousted city council members, has garnered a lot of sympathy with the electorate during the state occupation of the city.
Besides, why is the good government answer always less democracy? Taking decisions out of the hands of voters? A city manager is going to be beholden to the City Council, which would have the power of hiring and firing managers.
Why would Central Falls voters want to remove one of the checks and balances of city government? If the City Council passes a bad ordinance, is the city manager they appointed and whom they can fire going to veto it?
Say what you will about Central Falls; itãs never dull.

Wheeler died at his home on Whe^-ler Avenue. Wed- naday evening, after a year's illness, during the la*! six months of whioh he was confined to hin bed. Mr. Wheeler wns nixty nine years of age •nd had resided in Valley Stream for the past twenty-eijfht years, prior to this he lived in Brooklyn where he wss a Pasi MH))iter ot fhe Corner Stone Ijodge, No. .3fi7 F. A A. M. In 1892 the Judge, who was Master Mason at that time, delivered an ad¬ dress in response to a welcome given by Bro. Auguatua H. Marinus to its Past Master* by ibe (;orner .Stone liodge. whirh was afterwards printed In book form. The funeral servipcs were held Sunday afternoon. Rev. Serverance of tbe Grace M. E. Church, officiat¬ ing. The body was intercd in the Grenfleld cemet«»ry. Mr. Wheeler ia survived by a wife •nd three sons, Theodore, Georjpe and Edward. Judipe Wheeler was a familiar figure throughout all this aection and was a daily visitor in Lynbrook. He was ^srell read on current topics and was an interesting companion. He was isrell versed in law and did con- •iderable in the way of drawing up legal papers and advising along legai lines. ) Mr. Wheeler wag connected with the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company for a number of yt-ars be¬ fore his removal to Valley Stream after which he was editor of The Nassau News, a newspaper which was owned by Jotlin Coyle. Mr. Wheeler was a native of Sunk Meadow, near Smithtown, Suffolk County, and gained his education In Principal Ryan's school In East New ¦jTork. Then he followed the sea as a sailor for two years, and subse¬ quently became a grocery clerk. Ijiter ,'je engaged in the Insurance business in Now York and Brooklyn, from which he retired in 1895. He became a resident of Valley Stream In 1890. In 1895 he was elected a Justice of the Peace of the Town of Hemp¬ stead, aerviiig for four years, his court room being at Lynbrook. He defeated ihls Democratic opponent Andrew J. MacLean, of Freeport, by 0 majority of 816 for the office of Justice. On January 1st, when the new city nf filen Cove will commence its op¬ eration, a supervisor will represent it in the Brnrd of Supervisors, mak¬ ings fhree supervisors from the two northaide towns; two from the town of Oyster Bay, and one from North Hempstead. Hempstead will only be represented by one auperviaor. In order to make fhe representation fsir ns the town of Hempstead has one- hal f of the population of the county and! reprea* nts practically one-lialf of the Bsse.issed valuation, a new law will also go into efTect which gives-to fhe Supervisor from the Town of Hempatead, voting power nearly rommonscratc with the proportion of the county which he represent.'^. The new law provides that the smallest unit of population shall be the basis for ascertaining the number of votes supervisors ahall be entitled to. Politicians have figured it out that the Town of Hempstead Super¬ visor wil! have three votes and that in all probability North Hempstead will also get an additional vote. This will make seven votes in the Board of Supervisors. It will also mean that in order for the Town of Hempatead to vote for things it wishes, its super-ziaor will have to team up with some one of the North- side representatives. POSTMASTER AT LONG BEACH MISSING Much alarm is being felt over the alleged disappearance of Postmaster Clinton Parsons. Fears are enter¬ tained by Mrs. Parsons and his inti¬ mate friends residing here that he may be a victim of foul play or that his mind may be temporarily dis¬ arranged. Even suicide is hinted as he has acted very strangely of iate. Since his resignation was asked for by the Post Office autho.''"ie3 several months ago, there has been consider¬ able mystery concerning his where¬ abouts. For a time he would v^it his home for weekends as Mrs. Par- " sons has been acting as Postmaster tince her husband resigned. Then his visits to the village ceased cntire- « ly, although he was supposed to be in charge of the sales force for a large hat manufactoring concern in New York. It ia surmised that he has been seen in Buffalo, but Mrs. Parsons de¬ nies these and says she has no know¬ ledge of his whereabouts. On Thuraday two men who are said to be Government agents held a long confab with the Postmaster's wife in the village and when they left she appeared to be in a very excited atate and redoubled her efforts to locate her husband. Mr. Parson's resig^nation it is Mlid followed ahortly after a visit from a Post Office Inspector. From that tinxe Mrs. Parsona haa been in charffa of the olHie. Somatinne ago •notber examination of the accounta of the office was made by an Inspec¬ tor and it is aaid demanded that Mr. Parsons be produced at once to ex¬ plain some irresrularitiea. It was alao admitled at this time that the Postmaster's accounts were very much mnddled. Another thing -which surprises his friends and aeetna to confirm tha facts that he really is a victim of fowl play or became suddenly insane was his failure to attend the funeral servicea of hia father which were held In Brooklyn on Wednesday.— Long Beach Press. SHERIFFS RESEIVE IS REjORGANIZED The Sheriff's Resen'e in Nassau County, which for a time it was thought would be superceded in its activities by the Home Defense mem- i)er8, has been reorganized by Sher¬ iff Phineas A. Seaman, who intends to make it an effective orgranization for tho preservation of law and or¬ der in the county. Following the outbreak of war with Germany, the Sheriff Reserve was organized in Nasau County with more than 2,000 members. Practic¬ ally every villagre had one or more companies. At the request of State officials most of the men were trans¬ ferred to a Home Defense organiza¬ tion. Since then plans have been adopted by the State authorities for a New York Guard and the members of the Home Defcn.se were without recognition and power. During the past month the work of mustering these men out of service has gone ahead. The re-organization of the Sher¬ iff's Reserve means that Nassau County is to have an organization along the lines originally intended for the purpose of assisting the Sher¬ iff should any internal disorder arise. Frank L. Crocker, who was the chaiman of the Nassau County Home Defense Committee, has been selected as chairman, and Samuel D. McAlister, who was named as Col¬ onel of the Nassau County Home De¬ fense Regiment, will head the Sher¬ iff's Reserves. E Pleasant Knmity.

Recipe by SOGOLONDJATA
"Ever go to an Indian restaurant and wonder how they make those lentils? I hated lentils before I discovered Indian food. Then I scoured the internet to figure out how they achieved them, and through mixing and matching recipes and methods on videos, I've arrived at this recipe, which I think is pretty close. This version is very rich, but you can leave out the cream to make it lighter. Kasuri methi (fenugreek leaves) is almost impossible to find in the U.S., even in NYC, but it gives this dish something very special."

1 cup lentils
1/4 cup dry kidney beans (optional)
water to cover
5 cups water
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon cumin seeds
4 cardamom pods
1 cinnamon stick, broken
4 bay leaves
6 whole cloves
1 1/2 tablespoons ginger paste
1 1/2 tablespoons garlic paste
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or more to taste
1 cup canned tomato puree, or more to taste
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1/4 cup butter
2 tablespoons dried fenugreek leaves (optional)
1/2 cup cream (optional)
I think the recipe would have turned out great if much less salt was used. I adjusted the recipe for 16 people and it called for 1/3 cup salt. It was extremely salty. Tried to reduce salt by adding potatoes with minimal results. I would recommend at least halving the salt content and work up from there.
I have to agree with cengelberg, the recipe shown is far too salty. I made the recipe for 6 people and it called for 2 tablespoons of salt, but change that to 2 teaspoons and you'll be fine. I also used canned kidney beans instead of dry, so if you go my way be sure to drain the excess water after cooking the lentils and beans or you'll end up with dal makhani soup.

Warning to anyone who wants to try this recipe: use 2 TEASPOONS salt - or even less and add as needed. The dish smelled and looked amazing and was absolutely delicious except for the extreme saltiness. Unfortunately, I couldn't fix the doubled recipe and decided to dump the entire thing out. Will definitely try again some time soon, with MUCH less salt - and will probably use kosher instead or regular salt. I had read the previous reviews and reduced the amount of salt but didn't realize by how much I should have reduced it by. I'm sure my next attempt will turn out great!!!
This recipe was tried by my family during Phase 1 of South Beach. We did not use any of the optional ingredients and omitted the butter. We did add some butter flavor. We salt our meals at the table, so I cannot remember how much salt we added. This is authentic Indian food with the raw form of spices. Chew carefully to keep from biting a clove etc.
