Critics are not happy with singer Jessica Simpson. During an interview on Katie Couric's talk show, Simpson showed off a picture of her 4-month-old baby wearing a yellow bikini.
According to a report in the Daily Mail, the child welfare charity Kidscape criticized her for sexualizing her baby with the 'totally inappropriate' outfit.
Simpson is not the first celebrity to be targeted for how she dressed her child.
In January, supermodel Cindy Crawford was criticized for allowing her 10-year-old daughter Kaia to pose in a short skirt.

Queen's community members honoured with Mayor's Award
Two Queen's University students, a retired professor and an academic fellow are among the winners of the 2010 Kingston Mayor's Award.
Students Darry Malka Kyakimwa and Judy Kim and Professor Emeritus Dr. James Low were recognized for their volunteerism, and Canadian political history fellow Arthur Milnes for his achievements in helping promote Sir John A Macdonald.
Ms Kyakimwa moved to Canada from the Congo four years ago with her family and when they arrived in Kingston, their first meal was at Martha's Table, a non-profit restaurant that provides low-cost, nutritious meals.
Despite barely being able to speak English, she said her family met nice people and were made to feel welcome. Now, the Queen's nursing student regularly volunteers at Martha's Table to help others.
"Martha's Table provided my family with food and friendship when we were in need. Volunteering at Martha's Table is my way to say thank you. It is my turn to serve people in need in our community. I cannot give them money or food. I can only give my time and serve them," says Ms Kyakimwa.
Ms Kim has been visiting residents at the Ongwanada Community Residence every week since 2006. She has started planning special events at the residence and her handmade origami crafts have helped raise funds for the centre. Ms Kim was named Ongwanada's volunteer of the year for 2008/09.
Dr. Low, head of the Queen's Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology from 1965 until 1985, founded the Museum of Health Care and has been its volunteer executive director for almost 20 years.
Mr. Milnes is known around Kingston as one of the biggest supporters of Sir John A Macdonald and has helped raise the profile of Canada's fist prime minister in his home town. Mr. Milnes has worked on numerous projects, including getting former prime ministers Paul Martin and Jean Chretien to narrate the In Sir John A's Footsteps walking tour.
The Mayor's Awards will be handed out at City Hall during the Canada Day Civic Ceremony on July 1, at noon.

Three local shelters with specials: Can you fit another furkid in your life?by Lynn Kalber
There's been a both a fur-baby boom, and a large number of pets released to shelters as owners struggle to stay afloat in the face of the rough economy.
It means those cages are crammed, folks.
Safe Harbor Animal Sanctuary, Humane Society of the Treasure Coast and Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League are really full.
Adoption specials are all over the place.
For half-price, the TCoast's Humane Society can pair you with rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, finches, ferrets and other small critters. The rabbit fee includes spaying or neutering, and the ferret fee includes a rabies shot. Its Feline Frenzy special is $50 for the first cat, $25 for the second cat if both are adopted on the same day.
Safe Harbor has a Cat-A-Thon this week (ends Aug. 15) with an adoption fee of $50.
The Peggy Adams shelter has a $50 adoption special for all pets, cats or dogs. And here's a note for seniors: "In addition, the rescue league offers a Senior to Senior program where adoption fees are waived if the adopter is 55 years or older and the pet is at least five years or older."

PASCO, Wash. -- Nine outstanding student-athletes from Chiawana High School signed their commitment letters for college. Five of them will play a collegiate sport at a four-year university.
Samantha Cowan will run cross country for Western Oregon. Haylee Hammons will golf at Northwest Nazarene. Danielle Loving will play basketball at Eastern Arizona. Madison Powers will run track at Biola University. Jamie Steach will play volleyball at Pacific University.
"I knew from middle school that I wanted to do collegiate sports, but I just didn't know what sport. Then this was my first year running cross country and it turned out I was good at it, so that was my opportunity to do it," Cowan said.
"I decided to play college golf because I didn't want to stop at high school and I looked at it as an opportunity to keep doing something I love," Hammons added.
Hannah Bosch, Bianca Gonzalez, Lexi Miller and Danielle Sanaski will compete next at the community college level.

5 out of 5 stars
Incredible Surgeon - Pasadena, CA
Dr. O came highly recommended by people I trust and I was blown away. Dr. O is an ARTIST when it comes to sculpting the body. He was an absolute professional, his staff is AMAZING, and his work is perfection. I will never go to another surgeon as he has gone above and beyond any of my expectations.
5 out of 5 stars Tummy Tuck
Tummy Tightening Monologues - Los Angeles, CA
Dr. O'Toole and staff are amazing people. They are very kind, empathetic and professional!! Dr. O'Toole has great presence and bedside manner. He listened and answered all my questions and would make sure I understood. Sarah, the office manager is very sweet and is very fast with follow up and questions! When I asked for referrals she followed up right away with three women. One of the referrals even met me at the office to see her results in person! This is the day of my surgery and I am so happy with my results!! I can just imagine how I will look in 1,3 and 6 months!! Lastly, he said he was a belly button expert, he truly performed art!!!:)
5 out of 5 stars
Tummy Tuck in July '10 and Breast Reduction/Lift in August '12 - Pasadena, CA
Reputation. Dr. O'Toole is the absolute best plastic surgeon. He is thorough in explaining the procedures, he listens to what you want and gives great advice.
5 out of 5 stars
You Never Know How Dedicated a Doctor is to You As a Patient Until a Problem Arises - Pasadena, CA
I was referred by a friend. Dr. O'toole is one of the best physicians I have come across, period. He was relentless in his quest that I receive the absolute best treatment possible, and, I did. During the additional 6 months of treatment that I required, he did not bill me at all. I recommend him to everyone who is looking for a skilled surgeon with a wonderful bed side manner, who really cares about his patients.
5 out of 5 stars Chin Liposuction
Smart Liposuction Chin & Neck - Pasadena, CA
Provider has worked with over 20+ years in Plastic Surgery with no malpractice. His Healthgrade scores are primarily 10. He offered a free consultation, during the initial consultation he spent close to an hour understanding what my goals were, what was realistic, and explaining the procedure in detail. An added bonus, the staff was amazing from the receptionist to the office manager, to my rockin nurse who made sure that I had everything I needed.
5 out of 5 stars Breast Lift with Implants
Still Groggy and Sore but Thrilled -Pasadena, CA
I had a lift and implant after losing 140 pounds with a vsg , weight loss surgery. Dr. Otoole did a beautiful Job on my cousins post bariatric work, was reasonably priced and just super kind and down to earth. Not at all cocky or arrogant like some drs I'd met while seeking a surgeon. I felt comfortable from day one. His staff is amazing and helper ease my fears through the process.

I swear to God, Juventus just played. Ok, ok, it was on Saturday, but it sure seems like just yesterday evening Alessandro Matri and Claudio Marchisio were embracing in a snowstorm. Just me? Ok, sorry.
So Juve are up to 20 matches unbeaten, thanks to a 2-1 win over Udinese on Saturday. Parma, meanwhile, managed just a point against Catania, making ten points from their last nine matches. They're in 12th, they're fairly comfortable, they're...well, they're bland.
But if they upset Juventus, Parma will be the flavor of the month -- especially if ex-Juve player Sebastian Giovinco is the one that clinches the winner. Giovinco loves scoring against his former club, and if Stephan Lichtsteiner is rested today (he was substituted, looking exhausted, for the first time this season against Udinese) the attacker just might get his chance.
Still, no one underestimates the Old Lady these days. Marchisio will most likely start, and will want to, once again, catch up with Matri on goals scored. With Mirko Vucinic still out injured, we might see Marco Boriello paired with Matri, his first league start in bianconeri.

Early starts best – but late starts possible when raising slow kids
Years ago, when columnist John Rosemond was about to become a grandfather, he wrote a column giving his son, Eric, just two pieces of advice about fatherhood.
Although I am not a Rosemond worshipper by any stretch of the imagination, and cannot even recall the second piece of advice, one piece has remained chiseled into my brain for life.
Rosemond's suggestion to his son? To lock up the TV set until his child entered school.
The idea might seem radical, but it grew out of Rosemond's own difficult experience raising Eric. After learning that he was failing third grade, Rosemond and his wife imposed a number of changes in household rules and routines. Convinced that Eric's TV-watching habit was the chief contributor to his problems, they decided not just to limit the family's viewing; they gave the family TV set away.
The results were dramatic and almost instantaneous, writes Rosemond in his book, Parent Power.
Eric and his sister began playing more creatively and calmly, and sibling conflicts – typically fights over TV shows – lessened remarkably.
"Undoubtedly, some of the improvement was due to the other changes we were making," writes Rosemond. "But I'm convinced that the single most critical variable in Eric's rehabilitation was the sudden and complete absence of television in his life."
Ben Carson, the famed surgeon, tells the story of a similar dramatic turnaround in his own life.
Carson and his brother were raised in poverty on the streets of Detroit by a single, teenage mother who had little education; but she was one smart mom and was determined to raise them right. When her son fell behind in school, she took away both boys' TV privileges and instructed them to read two books a week, write reports, and read them aloud to her (because she couldn't read herself).
Within a year or two, Carson says, he went from being considered "the dumbest kid in fifth grade" to one of the top students in seventh grade. The benefits spilled over into his personal life, and he began to devise ways to outsmart street thugs, deal with racism and keep his temper in check -- eventually going on to Yale and a career as a gifted surgeon and best-selling author.
Leading children to addiction?
Of course, both the Carson and the Rosemond children grew up in an era when TV was the main time-waster and source of addiction for vulnerable children. Today, the gallery of addictive devices has expanded to Nintendos, X-Boxes, PlayStations, computer games and all manner of handhelds and cell phone games. And often, it is the parents themselves buying the items that lead their children to addiction. As Stephen Moore lamented in a 2008 Wall Street Journal column, addiction to video games can turn even "normal, sports-loving adolescents" into demons who rant, rage and curse and throw things when deprived of their toy. "My teenage sons have been abducted, and I want them back," wrote Moore.
After discovering Xbox and online war games, the boys began spending five or six hours at a time in front of the computer screen, said Moore, and "withdrawing ever deeper" into violent fantasy worlds. Other parents told Moore that their children were so addicted that they had stopped bathing and taking bathroom breaks and were skipping meals and foregoing sleep.
"Computer games are the new crack cocaine," said Moore, who said he wished he had never let one in the house. "A mind really is a terrible thing to waste."
Yes, you might say, but what about all the benefits of video and computer games? What about the research that says video games can help train pilots by enhancing eye hand coordination and reaction time?
So I've heard – just as I've heard that video games have been shown to benefit persons with special needs and disabilities.
I still believe that video games have absolutely no place in early childhood, and that any screen time for preschoolers should be parceled out in only the tiniest of doses.
Computer games, video games, TV and other manufactured forms of entertainment are not merely useless when it comes to educating children, or preparing them for school or adulthood. When allowed to replace active, hands-on learning experiences that are crucial to neurological and physical development, they are downright toxic.
It's not the content that harms kids as much as the passive habits induced by too much screen time – especially for the preschool set.
What red-blooded American kid, after all, is going to be motivated to read, explore, or get psyched about school when he's spent his formative years pushing a button and mainlining his entertainment – without making a move?
Taking the right path early
It's not hard to figure out that keeping kids free of screen-time addiction is best done in the early years. And if you start them down the right path when they are toddlers, it's a piece of cake compared to the Rosemond and Carson interventions.
One of the moms who wrote in response to a previous "Slow Kids" column told me that her home is decorated in "Tinker Toys and Legos in various stages of build" – reminding me of my girls' pre-Lego years, when I used to joke that my house was decorated in "Early Fisher-Price."
In the toddler years, all it takes is a few good toys and a little help from parents – okay, some days it's a lot of help! – to get kids into a routine of playing with puzzles and blocks instead of watching TV. (Note, Mom and Dad, that this is easier if the TV is not the focal point of the living area, and is not watched non-stop by adults). I have known some families to keep their TV in a closet or an out-of-the-way room, but my girls' dad wouldn't hear of such a thing, so our television was typically secured in a cabinet with a child lock all day.
I can't begin to list all the benefits of this nearly TV-free lifestyle for my children, but, like Rosemond, I consider it the
central reason that they grew up to be good students, responsible adults and hard workers.
The lack of TV also had some nice, unexpected side effects – such as the minimal amount of begging I heard at holiday time. The other moms in my playgroup complained of relentless whining from their kids for cartoon-inspired and commercially-promoted toys and junk cereals. My kids? They barely knew such things existed.
But perhaps best of all, the absence of TV brought out all the childhood traits that were so enjoyable for me to observe as a parent: the girls' curiosity, initiative and creativity.
I'll never forget the neighbor child who came over one day to play with my six-year-old, and who greeted me by marching to our TV set and flipping it on without a word.
After I had informed her that parents turned on the TV set in our house, and reminded her that she had come to "play," my daughter – realizing that she and her sisters had an extra playmate – launched into one of their make-believe games. I can't remember if the game was "store," "restaurant," "school," or "college girls," but in no time my three were deep in their fantasy – and the neighbor child was watching in open-mouthed astonishment.
Wide-eyed and completely dumbfounded, she looked at me and asked, "What are they doing?"
I felt bad for her – and felt resentment toward parents who would rely so heavily on plug-in toys that their daughter had been deprived of the "let's pretend" experience.
Today, 20 years later, I can't bear to think how many more children are growing up deprived of books, blocks, puzzles and make-believe because their homes are full of gadgets that do the imagining for them. Too often, parents are buying these computer games and gadgets – envisioning them as vehicles for family entertainment, or thinking that having the latest game will keep their kids occupied and or even give them an edge.
So in the next "Slow Kids" column, we'll examine some of the myths surrounding different forms of electronic entertainment, and take a look at the educational value of computer games, videos and lapware.
Till then, here's to the life unplugged!

Short Pump brewery offers more than just beer
I am still (happily) thinking about my entire experience at Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery last week. Knowing nothing about this new brewery out of Denver, I was leery of brew-pub in the heart of Short Pump Town Center – this is not what I'd usually think of as a perfect fit, and yet, it was.
The restaurant and craft brewery opened in early June and features 10 beers made by female brewmaster Becky Hammond (pictured). This is the restaurant's second location in Virginia; the first is in Arlington. Behind glass walls, customers watched the beer brewing in massive steel barrels. For our up-and-coming beer region, it makes sense that Short Pump would jump on board.
As I walked up to the back of the mall near the comedy club, I was taken aback by what I saw: at the top of the stairs was an overflowing restaurant with outdoor seating, large umbrellas and dangling outdoor lights. > Read more.

A federal judge sentenced a south Mississippi oncologist Friday to the maximum sentence of 20 years in prison after her conviction in a multimillion-dollar fraud scheme involving chemotherapy drugs.
Dr. Meera Sachdeva, 50, who founded the Rose Cancer Center in Summit in 2005, was also ordered to pay more than $8 million in restitution and a $250,000 fine. Additionally, Sachdeva will have to forfeit $6 million and four parcels of property.
Sachdeva pleaded guilty July 13 to one count of health care fraud and two counts of making false statements.
Prosecutors said Sachdeva allowed technicians at the cancer center to perform bone marrow biopsies, reuse syringes and use Chemotherapy treatments after their expiration date.
"It was impossible for us to determine, after the fact, whether any particular patient received an adequate amount of chemotherapy treatment, an inadequate amount, or an excessive amount," said Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Mississippi Scott Gilbert.
Sachdeva also admitted to billing for more chemotherapy drugs than she purchased and not providing each patient with the fully prescribed dosage.
"The amount that she billed the Medicaid, Medicare, and the other private insurance was greater than what she actually purchased," said U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Mississippi Gregory Davis.
Prosecutors the clinic was unsanitary for cancer patients, because several cancer sufferers were admitted to the hospital with infections. One doctor who testified in the trial said an infection was a contributing factor to the death of one patient.
"We just don't know and weren't able to determine, despite our best efforts, the exact causes of death of many of these patients," said Gilbert.
The judge said one reason for the maximum sentence was Sachdeva showed no serious remorse.
Brittany McCoskey, 26, the office manager at the cancer center, was sentenced to 13 months and ordered to pay more than $55,000 in restitution. She pleaded guilty May 17 to making false statements on claims. The U.S. Attorney's office says she prevented nurses from calling an ambulance for some patients at the clinic and even performed some medical procedures while employed as the office manager.
Monica Weeks, 40, was sentenced to three years probation, three years home confinement and restitution of $19,549. Weeks operated The Medical Billing Group in Madison that helped cover up fraud.
A number of the 50 former patients of the clinic, whose records have come in to question or were illegally changed, were in the courtroom. Several family members representing their deceased loved one were also in attendance.
"My sister meant a lot to my family because she had a hand in raising us. So, I'm hurt over that, but I have some closure to the fact that now I know some justice is done," said Rosetta Chairs.
Chairs mentally challenged sister received treatment at Rose Cancer Center and later died.
Earnest Whittington's wife died after being diagnosed with cancer. She also received treatment under the care of Sachdeva. He isn't sure if cancer treatments lead to her death but Whittington was happy with the outcome of the trial.
"I think considering what they had to go by, they did the best they could. I have nothing but high praise for them," explained Whittington.

The military has big plans for AKO. Last year Boutelle and Air Force Lt. Gen. Charles Croom, director of the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), decided to expand the AKO into DKO (Defense Knowledge Online) to include all of the services and Defense Department agencies.
The goal is a single portal for all of the military who will use an SOA to deliver the AKO services that have already proven themselves, as well as newer collaboration capabilities using IBM's Sametime suite, which DISA recently licensed to provide amenities such as Web conferencing, white board tools, application sharing, broadcasting, chat, and audio and video capabilities to soldiers.
"[DKO] will also provide a cost reduction across the DoD by leveraging enterprise buying power of the DoD versus each service and agency buying and maintaining separate portals," says Marvin Wages, deputy chief of the knowledge management division at the Army CIO's office.
It could take longer than planned for this to happen, however. Initial expectations had the first version of DKO launching this summer, but budget problems, along with ensuring that the AKO architecture can scale to the expected number of DKO users, has put the start off to a time yet to be decided.
Raising the bar on access control
Budget problems are also hindering agencies' efforts to get in line with the HSPD-12 directive.
Issued in August 2004 by President Bush, HSPD-12 requires agencies to issue standard identity credentials, in the form of biometrics-laden smart cards, to their employees and contractors by Oct. 27.
It's an "inordinately complex" undertaking for most agencies, says Bruce Brody, vice president of information security at Input, a technology analyst firm that focuses on government markets. But the technology issues are probably the easiest concerns to deal with.
That's because the government can set its own standards. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) last year published FIPS (Federal Information Processing Standard) 201, which specifies the smart card functions, the interface technologies, and the biometric identification data.
Vendors must ensure that their systems are FIPS 201-compliant before government agencies can even consider buying them.
But the requirements for the identity management systems that will handle card distribution and application of the biometric data for each agency, as well as manage the databases that contain the identity information, are not so clear. And it's likely they never will be, as these requirements must integrate card management systems, registration systems, a number of different personnel-management systems, and enterprise-level physical and network security access systems that have traditionally been very attuned to individual agency's needs.
"The government's industry partners have wrestled [the technology issues] to the ground," Brody says. "But it's the cultural issues and the need for the agencies to find $100 million to do this that are proving problematic."
The White House has said agencies will not receive any more money to deal with the HSPD-12 mandate, so agencies must find the funds from existing budgets. And program managers at the agencies can't skimp on what they do, Brody says, because a true enterprise solution means having to deal with all manner of stovepiped legacy systems, involving people as well as technology.
A recent Input study showed that about half of federal government IT managers still don't have a plan to meet the October deadline.
Beyond security, functionality such as secure remote access, SSO (single sign-on), enterprise integration through Web-based interfaces, better agency coordination during emergencies, and better forensic capabilities are all touted as additional advantages not covered by strict HSPD-12 compliance.
"The concern is if agencies just stop at handing out the credentials," says Randy Vanderhoof, executive director of the Smart Card Alliance. "There's so much more potential in the new credentials to getting agencies to work together and develop usable solutions."

An illegal burn that got out of control destroyed a mobile home on Dykes Road in Worth County Monday afternoon.
Property owner Lewis Hillard said he was burning cricket boxes. He went into his house to get something to drink. When he came back out, the fire had spread to the trailer he was using for storage. Hillard was cited for an unlawful burn.
Chief Ranger Lester Green Forestry rangers said it's a dangerous time for burning. "Just let people know that it is getting drier and things burn a whole lot easier, quicker and faster when it dries out, so be careful when you burn."
In May, state and local authorities seized 53 dogs from the property. They accused Hillard of running a puppy mill and charged him with animal cruelty.
Most of those dogs found new homes, though 18 were euthanized.

Goals by Robbie Keane and the newly signed Christian Wilhelmsson led the LA Galaxy to a 2-0 win over the Colorado Rapids on Friday night to push them into third place in the Western Conference. LA now sits level with Salt Lake and just one point behind second place Seattle, while Colorado's miserable season continues.
Keane made the Galaxy's early dominance count with a goal in the 15th minute. The goal was a product of some gorgeous play by LA, which began with a good one-two between Marcelo Sarvas and Sean Franklin down the right. Sarvas then played the ball centrally for Keane, who let the ball run for Landon Donovan and took off. Donovan played the ball quickly in for Keane, who timed his run perfectly and finishing well with his first touch to put the Galaxy in front for his 12th tally of the season.
Just before the hour mark, Wilhelmsson made his Galaxy debut count, in large part thanks to a gorgeous ball over the top by Sarvas. The Swede ran into Sarvas' pass, shrugged off a defender then hit a shot that Matt Pickens let slip through his fingers and into the net.
It was a great night all around for LA, who got Wilhelmsson a goal in his debut, Donovan back from injury and looked excellent even without the injured David Beckham. Only once did Colorado really threaten and even then, the sensational Sarvas made a diving block to deny a sure goal as LA's late season surge continued with three points.

Juventus have done the double over Inter Milan this season, winning 2-0 in the Derby d'Italia on Sunday night. Although the two sides looked evenly matched in the first half, goals by Martin Caceres and Alessandro Del Piero proved to be Inter's undoing. The win puts Juve back within three points of AC Milan, while Inter slide down into eighth place.
The visitors started off quickly, attacking right from the start and disarming Juventus in the process. Although the home side managed a few shots from the likes of Alessandro Matri and Mirko Vucinic, those either missed the mark by quite a bit or went straight into the arms of Julio Cesar. But his opposite sure was busy -- Gigi Buffon seemed to be saving shots from nearly everyone in the Inter side. His spectacular saves are the only reason the match went into the break scoreless.
After the restart, Inter were already looking a bit worn down, but still Juventus could find no way through. Antonio Conte wasted little time in making changes, bringing in Del Piero for Matri and removing Simone Pepe in favor of Leonardo Bonucci. The switch to a 3-5-2 produced results quickly. After less than five minutes, Claudio Marchisio let off a rocket from distance, forcing Julio Cesar into a fingertip save. The resulting corner proved to be Inter's undoing, however. Caceres, unmarked near the back post, headed on the corner for the first goal of the match -- and his first in Serie A since his return to Juve.
Claudio Ranieri responded with his own double switch, replacing John Obi with Marco Faraoni and Giampaolo Pazzini for Andrea Poli. Despite the addition of an additional forward, the nerazzurri just couldn't get back to the way they'd been playing in the first half. By the 72nd minute, Juve had another, courtesy of who else but il capitano, scoring his first in the league this season. Arturo Vidal sent a magnificent ball through three black and blue shirts, and Del Piero seemed to have all the time in the world has he sent his low shot to Julio Cesar's right. The keeper dove left and the Old Lady had their second, and decisive, goal.

Students are also given the opportunity to explore the mathematical questions in a politically challenging context. Calculations are made using an online tool and the data gathered on the Lesson 1 activity sheet, Why California?, and additional resources are introduced to extend the primary activity.
Begin the lesson by displaying the Who Won This Election?
overhead. Ask students to examine the numbers carefully. Students
should notice that the "gray" candidate received more of the popular
vote, yet the "white" candidate received more of the electoral vote. If
students notice that the number of electoral votes is different from
those in Why California?, explain that the Why California? data is
current and the overhead data is from a previous election. Some
students may recognize it as the 2000 presidential election between Al
Gore and George W. Bush.
Engage students in a class discussion about whether or not they
feel the results of the election are "fair." Many students will have
their own opinions, but try not to influence students with your own
opinion. You may wish to share with them that these are real election
results from the 2000 presidential elections. Gray represents Democrats
and white represents Republicans. See the Extensions section below for possible follow-up questions.
You may also choose to bring in other political information and
data. For example, since the electoral college is part of our
Constitution, any proposal to change the electoral college process would
need the support of 3/4 of the states (not 3/4
of the population). Many citizens have strong feelings on this topic.
Some are highly critical of the electoral college process for the
reason just stated, while others believe we should continue with the
electoral college since it benefits the least populous states.
Tell students that their goal is to investigate situations in
which the electoral college creates unusual election results. This is a
good activity for students to work on in groups because discussions
arise naturally from the investigation. However, you should collect
activity sheets from each student to gauge individual understanding.
One approach is to organize students into groups of three with the
following roles:
Display and discuss the rubric found with the How Could That Happen?
answer key before work begins. Allow students to ask question to ensure
they understand how they will be assessed on the activity.
Distribute the How Could That Happen?
activity sheets. There are three problems included to choose from. The
first two problems, How Could I Win? and How Could I Lose?, are nearly
equivalent in difficulty. The third problem, How Could I Win and Lose?,
is more difficult and open-ended. Use the third problem to
differentiate and challenge gifted students in a mixed ability class.
Alternatively, in a higher ability class, you could assign How Could I
Win? or How Could I Lose? to groups as a beginning activity and use How
Could I Win and Lose? as the main challenge of the lesson. Note that
this will probably require a second class period.
Students should use the Electoral College Calculator
to experiment with different data scenarios. This activity can also be
done by organizing data in a spreadsheet, or by using a calculator if
computers with an Internet connection are not readily available.
Students should use the table created in Why California? as a resource.
If you choose to go directly to this lesson without completing
Lesson 1, you will need to provide students with the table from the Why California? Answer Key.
There are several ways to address the question in How Could I
Win and Lose? One possibility is to let students make assumptions to
simplify the problem. Since Why California? uses population data and
the solution to the problem requires data on registered voters, allow
students to assume the same portion of the population in each state is
registered to vote, which will allow them to use the available
population data. The actual percentages vary between states, and fall
within the range of about 50% to 80% of a state's population being
registered to vote. You could also have students research data on
registered voters, such as the information on Voter and Registration Data on the U.S. Census Bureau website.
Leave time toward the end of class to draw students back to a
class discussion and review of the rubric requirements. Emphasize that
a level 5 answer will include all elements outlined on the activity
sheet, and remind students to focus on developing a mathematically
sound explanation despite the strong political content of the activity.
Display the shaded maps from How Could I Win? together. Then
display the maps from How Could I Lose? together, and finally, display
the maps from How Could I Win and Lose? together. Discuss the
similarities as each set of maps is put up. Ask students questions to
encourage a discussion of these similarities. For example:
If time permits, allow students to volunteer to share some of the other results and discoveries they made during the activity.
Questions for Students
1. What kind of numbers did you look for to find the states necessary to win with the fewest votes?
[the highest number of electoral votes]
2. What numbers did you look for when you needed to find the
states that resulted in a loss even though the candidate had the most
[the lowest number of electoral votes]
3. Are there times when it doesn't matter which state you add to the list?
[States with equal numbers of electoral votes can be interchanged in the list.]
4. Are there any geographic patterns to the states you shaded in?
[The states in the middle of the country have fewer
electors, and the coastal states have more electors. You may choose to
discuss the historical reason for this difference.]
5. How likely do you think it is that a candidate would win 40 states without winning the election?
[Answers will vary.]
6. How likely do you think it is that a candidate would only win 11 states and win the election?
[Answers will vary.]

The Detroit Tigers are still alive after staving off elimination in Game 5 of the ALCS, preventing the Texas Rangers from booking a World Series ticket, at least for the moment. The Rangers still hold a 3-2 series advantage, and now head back to Texas with two chances to close out the ALCS and earn a trip back to the World Series for the second-straight year.
Over at Bless You Boys, the mood following the game was optimistic. A Game 5 win kept the Tigers alive, and gives them a chance as the series heads back to Texas.
With their backs to the wall, the Tigers responded. Maybe it isn't too little, too late. Sure the odds are still long, but rallying back to win a series you trail 3-1 has been done before. Hey, even the 1968 World Series winning Tigers had to do that. But they won. So why not, right?
Maybe the real key play was having no rain delay. Detroit's lost 4 games this post season, and 3 came after a game delayed (or suspended) by rain. Let's hope it's dry in Texas.
No rain, an outburst by the Tigers' bats in the sixth and a glimmer of hope for Detroit. Not a bad evening for Tigers' fans.
The Rangers and Tigers are off on Friday before getting back at it on Saturday in Game 6 of the ALCS.

SANTA CLARA — Wearing a gray San Francisco 49ers hoodie, soft-spoken running back Frank Gore walked around team headquarters with a familiar smile and strut Thursday.
Gore is in good spirits again, and so are the 49ers (2-2) entering Sunday night's game against the Houston Texans (2-2) at Candlestick Park. Gore gashed St. Louis for 153 yards on 20 carries in San Francisco's 35-11 rout of the Rams last week to snap a two-game losing skid and a rare running funk.
"We got back to being us," Gore said.
While much of the attention had been on quarterback Colin Kaepernick this season, San Francisco struggled to get the ground game going behind Gore.
Gore ran for just 144 yards the first three weeks combined, his worst start to a season since becoming the team's featured back in 2006. Questions started to bubble up about whether the 30-year-old running back, who has had surgeries on both knees going back to his college days at Miami, was wearing down.
Instead, San Francisco gave Gore as many carries against St. Louis as he had the previous two weeks. All he did was run for more yards than he had since Dec. 14, 2009, when he racked up 167 against Arizona on Monday Night Football.
"We know he's capable of that, he knows he's capable of that and our offensive line knows he's capable of that," 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said. "No question that everybody's inspired by what he does. Nobody does it like Frank Gore."
Perhaps no player has contributed to San Francisco's success more than Gore the past three seasons.
With Gore anchoring a power running game, the 49ers have been among the NFL's top rushing teams since Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Greg Roman revamped the unit after taking control in 2011. During Harbaugh's tenure, San Francisco is 9-0 when Gore runs for at least 100 yards.
Gore was fifth in the NFC with 1,214 yards rushing and his 4.7-yard average ranked sixth in the NFL last season to help carry San Francisco to the Super Bowl, where the 49ers lost to the Baltimore Ravens. Gore also was the league leader in rushing (319 yards) and rushing touchdowns (4) in the postseason.
