In 1961, long before a mass student movement erupted at Berkeley, the campus vice chancellor for student affairs was in touch with FBI agents about the campus activist group SLATE. Furthermore, he assured them of his belief that "recognition should be denied to any organization which may have as its motive, open or secret, the discrediting of the university, the Federal Government or any other well-established American ideals"—as if the right to political activity were not a well-established American ideal.
In 1965, FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover agreed to help the bureau's "close and trusted friend" Lewis F. Powell, Jr., who was preparing a talk about the Free Speech Movement. The report the bureau prepared for him emphasized the movement's "subversive element." Powell, who in his speech to lawyers denounced campus radicals, was later appointed by Richard Nixon to the Supreme Court.
An FBI informer, who had cut his espionage teeth infiltrating the Communist Party and Socialist Workers Party in Berkeley, procured firearms for the budding Black Panther Party.
Sharing a political agenda—to root out Communists—the FBI and Ronald Reagan scratched each other's back for decades, beginning with Reagan's days in Hollywood. Among other things, the FBI snooped on his daughter at his behest, helped protect one of his sons from scandal, and not least, during his first month as governor of California, met secretly with him to spill intelligence about student protests and help him drive the insufficiently punitive Clark Kerr out of the university presidency. Hoover also helped disqualify Kerr for a cabinet appointment by Lyndon B. Johnson.
There is, as they say, much more. But the story Rosenfeld tells so lucidly and at such necessary length should not be considered ancient history, interesting merely as a quarry for the antiquarian delectation of specialists and veterans. It points to something even more vast and unexplored: presumed troves of evidence concerning the surveillance—unrelated to any legitimate law enforcement purposes and sequestered from public view for decades—of untold numbers of American citizens by government agencies.
In particular, Rosenfeld's account raises the question of what else the FBI, the CIA, and military intelligence knew about who was doing what in the '60s and '70s, when they knew it, and who else they told. No journalist or historian, to my knowledge, has yet mined the FBI archives on Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and various other antiwar organizations. None have tried to piece together from the individual files of former SDS members (my own are absurdly redacted and backhandedly informative) a coherent account of what the secret police were doing during those years. What did Hoover and his band of monomaniacs in the FBI and other agencies not know? Can it be true that, as archives suggest, the FBI was so clueless as not to have understood until 1968 that the New Left was its own phenomenon and not a front for Communists?
If we are interested in buried truth, it is a matter of urgency to get busy. To put it bluntly, those who were surveilled, infiltrated and manipulated are beginning to pass away. So are those who conducted the surveillance, infiltration and manipulation. To make matters worse, the newspapers that fed Rosenfeld during his years of dogged industry have been cut to the bone.
Is this "ancient history"? Events of those years still cloud American politics. (See: Ayers, Bill.) Conventional wisdom about the past is alive—one may say festering—in the present. Rosenfeld convincingly demonstrates that a picture of the student left from those years that fails to take government operations into account is askew. I write this as one who has long doubted that so-called intelligence operations can, by themselves, explain America's political fortunes or even the demise of the New Left. I still doubt it. But this is one reason why we need journalists and historians: to unearth what is buried; to doubt our doubt. It's past time for an onslaught of pro bono legal and journalistic work. Rosenfeld points the way.
Todd Gitlin, professor of journalism and sociology and chairman of the doctoral program in communications at Columbia University, is the author of "The Sixties: Years of Hope, Days of Rage" and most recently "Occupy Nation: The Roots, the Spirit, and the Promise of Occupy Wall Street." He was the third president of Students for a Democratic Society.

'Nomophobia – the fear of being out of cellphone contact – is on the rise. A recent survey discovered 66 percent of people (in the UK) are terrified of being without their phone." – The Star
Unless this is a very new word, "nomophobia" does not exist.
Monophobia does. It means the fear of being alone and, I suppose, being in a Checkers queue or having drifted out of sight of land and finding you have left your phone at home amounts to the same thing.
To many people, the cellphone – especially youngsters – is now a part of themselves. They have to be in touch with everybody all the time.
I imagine monophobia is quite well established in SA, too.
I recall one wet Christmas at Trafalgar Beach when with a group of 14 family members and friends who were in a noisy after-breakfast debate to discuss what to do with themselves.
Phones were constantly chirping, buzzing, playing music and at least half the assembly were speaking – but not to each other, they were phoning or essemessing. One girl was texting her boyfriend who was in the same room.
Increasing numbers of people walking in the mall are microwaving their brains as they speak into their cellphones.
More and more I see people, apparently deranged, walking along the pavement talking loudly apparently to themselves but, in fact, into some sort of phone hidden about their person.
In fact one can, these days, openly talk to oneself under almost any circumstance and people will assume you are on the phone, never suspecting you are stark raving mad.
I was in London some time back where everybody appears to be on the phone whether on a bus, train or just walking.
I saw a middle-aged pedestrian pleading loudly as he stopped on the pavement: "Mama! Mama! I am sorry. You MUST understand. Mama PLEASE! Mama!"
In a half-filled train carriage a young woman seated some rows away was speaking to a boyfriend on her cellphone and the entire carriage could hear every word.
It was not a very interesting conversation, but what fascinated me was that she was totally unconcerned that everybody could hear.
Then one late afternoon on the crowded Underground a smartly dressed City gent sitting opposite, his head thrown back and with no visible phone, went on and on to an associate about a proposition in a voice that could be heard by dozens of passengers.
It occurred to me how I could have enlivened train journeys by conducting spurious cellphone conversations…
"Hello, Cynthia.
"Put me through to the prime minister, please… Ah, Prime Minister – look here, that offer last night of a cabinet post…
"I have thought it over, but what with trying to bring China to heel on the commercial front and with the EU crisis, I don't think it would be in the country's interest if I were to accept your proposition… No, no, no – David! Just listen to me…"
"Hello, my darling. Just tell me – is Charles within earshot? No? Splendid. About last night? Yes, it was fun. Philip? Yes, he definitely saw us… The Old Girl? Well, when I saw her this morning walking the corgis she gave me a funny look."
Or one could be back home in a check-out queue…
"Hey Gary! How are you then, man? The Proteas are doing well, hey? You must be proud. You left a message for me to ring you… New Zealand!
"You want me to go to New Zealand? Leaving tonight? Replace Smith?
"Sorry, boet, I'm in training for the Tour de France in July."

Scott ready to let loose
LONDON, England — With this morning's preliminary round out of the way and having qualified for tonight's final of the men's Olympic Games shot put, Jamaica's Dorian Scott says he is ready to let loose and start Jamaica's medal hunt at the 28th Games at Olympic Stadium in Stratford, London.
Scott, the national record holder (21.45m) and the first Jamaican to qualify for a final in a throwing event at the Olympics was 11th in qualifying with a best throw of 20.31m told reporters afterwards he was ready to let it all out.
"I can let loose tonight," he said, "The hardest part (was) getting through the qualifying and just trying to make sure everything goes right and now I can let loose and compete fully and see where it goes from there," adding "Making the finals, is just unbelievable."
Scott who was Jamaica's first competitor of 14 taking part today had a good series of 20.18m, 20.30m and 20.31m said he had no target in mind for tonight's final, "I just want to keep improving and get some clean throws where I can fully let loose," he said.
American Reese Hoffa leads with 21.36m followed by Germany's David Storl- 21.15m and defending champion Tomasz Majewski of Poland who threw 21.03m.
Scott who ranked 16th in the world coming into the Olympics, took up a coaching position at San Diego State last year and is in his fourth competition this season said he had been taking things one step at a time.
First he said he had to make certain he kept his job by throwing himself fully into coaching; then he made the Olympic B qualifying standard 20.23m in Tallahasse, Florida in June.
Scott who said he was "kinda high off the qualifying" said he then went after the A standard which he got when he threw his season best 20.72m at the JAAA/Supreme Ventures National Trials, then "After that decided to go to the Olympics and enjoy myself."
So far he said he has worked hard with the help of decathlete Maurice Smith who has acted as his coach, "And it was like let's see if I can make the finals and here I am!"
Scott said his first reaction to making the final was "relief to be honest because I knew it was there and the whole time in my head thinking God I hope I don't mess it up, I hope I don't try too hard. so when I hit my first throw and it was 20.18m, usually that's good enough as at the last Olympic 20.12m made it so that was more of a relief but I got hot at the end to go 20.30, 20.31," he said but added "I still don't feel like I touched one but I am feeling real nice right now."

Berwick is being asked to give its views on future arrangements for the town's midwifery services.
NHS North of Tyne, which is responsible for commissioning health services in Berwick, is eager to hear from local people, in particular young mothers and future mothers, about how local maternity services can be provided safely.
Two public meetings are also being held at The Maltings, on Wednesday, January 30 at 1.30pm and Wednesday, March 6 at 6.30pm.
For more information visit the NHS North of Tyne website
The survey is available online
This consultation, which began on December 11 last year and will continue until March 19, is part of the process set out in the NHS Act (2006) which requires NHS commissioners to involve people in the planning, development and consideration of proposals for changes in health services.
The consultation process is expected to focus on the proposals for midwifery-led care that were put forward in a safety review report by Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust in November.
Dr Mike Guy, medical director of NHS North of Tyne, said: "We hope that as many people as possible will come along to the public meetings and give their views. We recognise how important it is for people in Berwick to have services as close to home as possible but it is important that the services we commission for them are safe and sustainable."
He added that all possible steps were being taken to ensure people in Berwick and the surrounding areas, particularly the women who will be using maternity services in the future, have the opportunity to comment during the consultation.
Dr Alistair Blair, chief clinical officer (designate) for NHS Northumberland Clinical Commissioning Group, which from April 1 2013 will take over responsibility for commissioning the majority of healthcare services in the county, added: "We are very keen to hear the views of as many people as possible about the two different options that are being proposed – and if you are supporting or disagreeing with either option then to say why.
The first option detailed in the safety review was to restart services for both deliveries and inpatient care as they were before the temporary suspension. This would include all antenatal care for both low risk and high risk women, hospital and community deliveries for low risk women, 24/7 inpatient postnatal care and community midwifery services. This would need the recruitment of additional midwives to allow regular rotation, to ensure clinical skills are maintained.
The second option is to provide a 24/7 'on call' midwifery-led service which would mean low risk women could give birth in Berwick, either in a birthing room or at home. Women could return home six hours after giving birth and there would be enhanced community midwifery support for women at home. All existing hospital and community antenatal care would also continue.
During the consultation period NHS North of Tyne, along with Northumbria Healthcare, will attend meetings of local groups such as Berwick Town Council.
Further independent research is being carried out, targeting mothers and future mothers, as well as an on-line questionnaire that local people who wish to make their views known are encouraged to complete the onlinde survey. Comments can also be emailed to: firstname.lastname@example.com or sent by post to: Freepost Plus RRYY-HGHX-TESR, NHS North of Tyne, Berwick Maternity Consultation, 1 Esh Plaza, Sir Bobby Robson Way, Newcastle Upon Tyne NE13 9BA. Alternatively people can ring 0191 217 2599 with their comments.
All comments must be made by March 19 2013. They will be included in a report to the NHS North of Tyne board which meets in public on March 26.

text: Many landfills collect household hazardous waste, and waste latex paint is often a very expensive material to dispose of for the landfill. Waste latex is an excellent additive to the Posi-Shell® Cover System formulation. It gives the slurry a more flexible, leather-like quality, and has been approved by many regulatory agencies as a beneficial re-use method. Using this recyclable material in the Posi-Shell mixture has resulted in significant disposal savings for landfills across the county.

Curtesy is a principle in common law in England and early America by which a widower could use his deceased wife's property (that is, property which she acquired and held in her own name) until his own death, but could not sell or transfer it to anyone but children of his wife.
Today in the United States, instead of using common law curtesy rights, most states explicitly require that one-third to one-half of a wife's property be given outright to her husband at her death, if she dies without a will (intestate). Curtesy is occasionally used to refer to a widower's interest as surviving spouse in the property left by the deceased wife, but many states have officially abolished curtesy and dower.

An explosion rattled 5th Street late Wednesday night, sending three manhole covers flying into the air.
Broad Street was shut down from 2nd to 7th Streets for most of the night due to the explosions. It reopened Thursday morning in time for rush hour traffic.
The cause of the explosion was apparently an electrical issue.
Thankfully, no one was hurt in the explosion.
8News Reporter Tim Wronka is investigating this incident and the safety issue it posed; watch 8News at 5 for his full story.

Throwing a baby or bridal shower around Christmas? Repurpose your holiday decorations for the occasion and add some seasonal games. You'll be the best Ho-Ho-Hostess in town!
Replace some, or all, of your traditional tree ornaments with baby or bridal decorations. For a baby shower, tie baby socks, rattles, pacifiers, and other practical baby items to the tree with pastel ribbons. After the party, gift the Mother-to-Be with your "ornaments". You can do something similar at a bridal shower using mistletoe and household items like cookie cutters, kitchen utensils, or think about decorating your front door wreath with shower items too. It's a fun way to welcome your guests to the party.
Add lots of candles to your décor. They'll add elegance and foster the holiday spirit. Personalized candles make wonderful favors for your guests to take home.
Fill a Christmas stocking with small gifts for the guest of honor. Blindfold each guest and let them feel around inside the stocking. Then have the guests guess what's in the stocking. The guest with the most correct answers wins a prize!
Have guests wear and play the Stocking Surprise Game! Its is such a unique game idea and a fabulous icebreaker. Who will be good and who will be bad? Well, that will be determined by what is inside their stocking of course! Award a prize to the guest who has the present (a small glass bead in the shape of a gift). The others will be opening up their stockings to reveal small pieces of, none other than, coal! Personalized to the name of your party guest, this is a great game to play and really gets guests in the spirit!
Have guests make or decorate ornaments commemorating the special occasion. Let the guest of honor judge the best ornament and give the winner a prize. Gift the guest of honor with the new ornaments – she'll remember her shower for years to come! Or, if you prefer, each guest can take home the ornaments as the favor to keep as a memory of the shower.
As an alternative to the original Baby Bingo or Bride Bingo you may opt to play Christmas Bingo or other holiday games. More favors to take home are Christmas-Themed Lotions celebrating the new baby or Bath Salt Favors and more!
If you live in a snowy area – use it to your advantage! Build snowbabies or snowbrides. Advise your guests to wear their cold-weather gear and bring along some insulated gloves. Collect some accessories to decorate the snowbaby or snowbride and head outside for some old fashioned fun.
Afterwards, warm up your guests with hot appetizers and winter beverages, such as cocoa or hot toddies and get ready to have a holiday party that you've never had before!

CHICAGO, Aug. 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A class action lawsuit wasfiled today against a Chicago Public School and its officials who deniedstudents access to water and bathroom use. On July 12, 2007 seventh gradersSeneca Ammons and Keefe Ammons were suspended for one day after using thewashroom.
Teacher, Regina Shields, maintains a policy whereby her students arepermitted to use the bathroom once/day. They are not allowed any drink breaksat all (except during lunch). On the date in question, Seneca and Keefe werecompelled to use the washroom and upon doing so, were punished (suspension).
The incident occurred at Cuffe Math and Science Academy at 8324 S. Racine.
The lawsuit, which is being filed in federal court, aims to stop schoolofficials from enforcing a rule whereby students are permitted to use thebathroom only once per day and have a drink only during their lunch break.The denial of washroom and water breaks at Cuffe are humiliating and denystudents basic rights -- rights that are not taken away from prisoners, jailedfor serious crimes.
"Children need water throughout the day. They also need to use thewashroom. To deprive them of that is irresponsible, and quite frankly,ridiculous," says Attorney Blake Horwitz.
The Law Offices of Blake Horwitz, which dedicates its practice to civilrights around the country, filed the lawsuit on behalf of the plaintiffs. Mr.Horwitz has had many successes in the field of civil rights, including a$28,000,000 verdict against the City of Chicago.

text: Adrian Hamilton played an amazing game last night. If you watched the game they had to put a tight end on him every series after this one. This is the series that led to the blocked punt. I thought he did pretty good. I went back and watched it again to find out that he was doubled or tripled every time. I don't know about you guys but there is no way that he should be third team rush right now, he is better than Pernell in my opinion. What do you all think?

Father Forgive Me For I Have Sinned by José Roldan Jr. '05 has been awarded a 2013 HOLA award for Outstanding Solo Performance.
Father Forgive Me For I Have Sinned, is an auto-biographical coming of age story written and performed by José, of a young Latino boy, who grew up in the South Bronx of New York City in the 80′s/90′s. He shows us just how he tries to identify himself in a world of stereotypes. He introduces you to the most memorable members of his family, from the freestyle queen of the Bronx to his Bruja Tia who has discovered the secret in keeping a man. Jose takes you from the mean streets of the Bronx and the living room of his family's apartment to moments of his self-acceptance.
The piece was directed by Dante Albertie and was developed in the Solo Performance Workshop class here at Lehman.
The Hispanic Organization of Latin Actors (HOLA) is an arts service/advocacy organization dedicated to expanding the presence of Hispanic artists in entertainment and media through the cultivation, education and recognition of emerging artists.

Burning Memories
A little over a year ago, I wrote a column about a Nokia memo that appeared a little over a year ago. The famous "Burning Platform" memo made the case for Nokia bailing out of the open source MeeGo project as a last-ditch effort to save the company.
Nokia CEO Stephen Elop's vivid metaphor of fire and desperation won rave reviews for its originality and the style, but as I pointed out last year, style is a cart that all too often leads the horse. Just because someone expresses himself well doesn't mean he is correct. A carefully crafted metaphorical framework can sometimes point toward a conclusion that seems very elegant and obvious within the metaphor, but if you step outside the metaphor, you get a very different view.

- people in the U.S. have this name View Thomas Francis on WhitePages
Meaning & Origins
New Testament name, borne by one of Christ's twelve apostles, referred to as 'Thomas, called Didymus' (John 11:16; 20:24). Didymos is the Greek word for 'twin', and the name is the Greek form of an Aramaic byname meaning 'twin'. The given name has always been popular throughout Christendom, in part because St Thomas's doubts have made him seem a very human character.
|10th in the U.S.
English: from the personal name Francis (Old French form Franceis, Latin Franciscus, Italian Francisco). This was originally an ethnic name meaning 'Frank' and hence 'Frenchman'. The personal name owed much of its popularity during the Middle Ages to the fame of St. Francis of Assisi (1181–1226), whose baptismal name was actually Giovanni but who was nicknamed Francisco because his father was absent in France at the time of his birth. As an American family name this has absorbed cognates from several other European languages (for forms, see Hanks and Hodges 1988).
