Rebecca wrote a new blog post: The Culture of Catcalls 3 years, 5 months ago · View
I've recently started riding my bike to work, which feels truly liberating. But my rides are bringing me into contact with a group I've been trying to avoid for years: street catcallers. My guess is that every woman has been verbally harassed like this at some point in her life, often on a regular basis. As a resident [...]

Kate, I should have clarified in my comment. I was using worldwide statistics, not those just from the USA:
Rebecca commented on the blog post What We Missed 3 years, 7 months ago · View
Erin, I think the issue here is the content of the school's honor code. There aren't many people left who will claim college students don't have sex. BYU's honor code is way behind the curve, and worse, it penalizes students for healthy expressions of sexuality. (I'm sure you realized this.) What this brings up in [...]

I comment occasionally on Feministing posts, usually driven by discontent at some anti-gay or misogynistic story you guys expose. But this is the first time I'm directing my discontent at the Feministing article itself. I think the article's premise is fundamentally flawed Increasing recogniztion of gay relationships and, often, the desire for marriage is nothing [...]

Former Miss World and Bollywood actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan is on January's Elle India cover. But Aishwarya is outraged at the magazine and considering suing for how much they lightened her skin. StyleList has the story and a photo comparison of the actress at a red carpet event vs. on the cover. This is the second time [...]
Here's an interesting article from VeloNews:
They interview one of the podium girls. It definitely sounds less derogatory than the NYT article, but it's still an outdated tradition.
Certainly women who don't like the way this works can choose not to participate. But that doesn't mean it's ok for something so sexist to exist, in the sports world or otherwise. The "so just don't participate" argument is insulting. Women should not have to choose between being treated respectfully and being an object, an [...]
I am a big fan of professional cycling, and I have to say this is one of the "traditions" that makes me wish I wasn't. It's easy to forget how the sport has such an antiquated, boys club feel to it when you're just watching, enjoying these incredible athletes. But like the cheerleaders in American [...]

Russians Perform Record Beating SpacewalkIn a record-long spacewalk, Russian cosmonauts rigged cable outside the International Space Station for a new lab that's due to arrive in a few months. Fyodor Yurchikhin and Aleksandr Misurkin spent almost the entire seven-hour-plus spacewalk routing 120 feet of power and Ethernet cable. The cable had to be unreeled, then meticulously secured to handrails and hooks."Today we are the cable people," one of the spacewalkers commented in Russian as the work drew to a close. The spacewalk lasted seven hours and 29 minutes, a full hour longer than originally planned in order for the two to get a jump on work awaiting them in yet another outing this Thursday.Read more: http://www.laboratoryequipment.com/news/2013/08/russians-perform-record-beating-spacewalk

AFRICA/BURKINA FASO - The Bishops: "Burkina Faso needs justice, reconciliation and peace"
Ouagadougou (Agenzia Fides) - "Burkina Faso needs justice, reconciliation and peace. The protagonists of the current social tensions (majority and opposition political parties, movements and associations, civil society) must avoid any violence and any action that would worsen tensions, of undermining the dignity of the human person and the common good, and to lead our country into chaos". This is what the Bishops of Burkina Faso wrote in the document drawn up after the Ordinary Plenary Assembly of the Bishops' Conference, held in Ouagadougou from 11 to 14 June, which dealt with the difficult situation that the country is experiencing, marked by social unrest and unrest also fueled by the project to establish the Senate as part of the institutional and political reforms.
In the final document, recently published and sent to Fides Agency, the Bishops highlight that the changes in society have been determined by several factors. First, in terms of demography, the population is much younger (46.4% under 15 and 59.1% less than 20), but is unhappy and discouraged by the lack of social models: "The image of those who exercise some power is rather negative because it is tarnished by corruption and cronyism". It then highlights the growth of literacy (16.17% in 1985, 32% in 2012), access to information thanks to new technologies and a higher level of awareness of women, more and more educated. As for values, money "has become a reference value above the family, the nation, and the republic of God", especially for the young, who are interested in material goods and are ready to do anything to obtain them. We are thus witnessing the paradox that "the rise of religious practice is not accompanied by the need to conform to the precepts of social behavior and religious commandments".
The document points out that the government is increasingly detached from reality and the social gap deepens: mass poverty grows, one Group only splits the political and financial powers, corruption is rampant, young people are hopeless, violence increases . "In such a climate of extreme poverty, in which the needs of basic necessities (health, education, employment, housing, food) are not sufficiently assured and an increasing number of young people have an uncertain future, one can only legitimately question on the opportunity of the creation of a Senate", write the Bishops, and reaffirm that "politics is the use of legal powers to pursue the common good of society".
"On the issue that divides opinion in Burkina Faso, your Bishops reaffirm that the Catholic Church does not intend to be an obstacle to the institutional choice and to the adoption of the Senate – they write in the document -. This is why, after having called the attention of the members of the ACOR (Conseil Consultatif Réformes sur les Politiques) on the inappropriateness of the creation of the Senate, one has complied with the opinion of the majority, not without having expressed one's regret as the content, composition, powers and relations of that institution with the National Assembly, in short, the future configuration of the Senate have not been defined within the CCRP". (SL) (Agenzia Fides 23/07/2013)

Hi there!!!! Wow..have not been here on tumblr for a long while. So much going on since august…and still learning how to "finangle" around the tumblr site. I have no idea what i am doing! But i will keep trying to learn! It will not defeat meeeeee!

Thanks-have an awesome day—-
Anonymous said: Hey! I found you through your daughter who is incredibly inspiring. I just wanted to ask a couple of fitness things. I've gone to the gym before but I never know what to do, I end up ambling around... doing 20 minutes here and then ten minutes there. What kind of things are best for fat loss and for how long should you be using each machine? I want to lose fat before I tone up. I'm not hugely overweight but do need to lose 20lbs or so. Thanks in advance.
I am most proud of Natasha's achievments-which were not easy! I really love the gym for the group fitness classes-if your gym has them-try a variety-muscle conditioning, interval, bootcamp, zumba, kickboxing-try as many as you can and figure out which you enjoy - cardio workouts will blast fat-interval workouts are excellent - not easy but they work-check to see if they have someone at the gym that can give you a tour and help you figure out what to do-if there is no one to do this-if possible get a personal trainer for one session and have them go through things with you-if i was there i would help you!!! elliptical machine is great-there are a variety of workouts you can try on it-or you can just do a mellow workout if you are just starting out-the more muscle you have the more fat your body burns-it is our metabolic tissue-try to work on muscles every other day and rest in between-hope this helps-:)
Anonymous said: Hey! I really like your blog, and it is very helpful! I just have a question. I am 5'1 and 105 lbs, and I still look a little chunky, so I would like to tone up my body :) How much cardio do you suggest I do, and what kind? Thank you in advance!
as far as cardio goes-you can do every day if you want to or can—at least 30 minutes-if you go to a gym-try to find an interval type cardio class-they are the bomb! cardio blasts fat-for muscle conditioning squats, lunges, push ups, etc-again if you belong to a gym find a total body conditioning class, bodypump anything that is just muscle toning-if you dont belong to a gym-the best dvd's i know of are beachbody-or google "best muscle toning dvd's". also look on utube for workout vidoes for free—start slow—don't overdo yourself-aim for 2-3 days of muscle conditioning-alternate days-your muscles take 24 hours to repair from your workout and do the work-need to give them a rest in between workouts-you dont have to do that with cardio workouts! dont forget to get enough protein to feed your muscles! lean meats, protein drinks, fish, cottage cheese, etc. hope this helps-let me know if any other questions! you can do this!
mo3rosewhite said: This isn't a question, but I just want to say that you are very inspiring and very beautiful. Have a lovely Monday. :) <333
dawww thank you! Happy new year!
happy new year! keep moving, don't give up-eat good clean healthy food, get enough sleep-remember that anything that is worthwhile in life will not be easy!

Anonymous said: Wow, your blog is so informative. I found you through your daughter I hope you don't mind. So here is my dilema. I'm joining the gym (santa is bringing me a membership for a year) I'm meeting my Dr to arrange a food plan but I'm seriously concerned about loose skin. Any tips what to eat what to avoid... other than the obvious? I'm planning to loose 100lbs+ and don't want to end up with a body I hate. I'm 5ft5 256lbs and 22 years old, Female. Any help massively appreciated. Thanks. xx
i am happy you joined me—I am not very good at creating a fancy tumblr but I love trying to help people! essentially, the skin factor just depends on the individual-you are young so that is totally in your favor concerning the skin issue-there really are no special foods for the skin thing-that is all about stretching your skin so much that once you lose weight the skin doesn't "pop" back-since you are starting now-you will have better results but realistically you just have to see what happens—-this is a good question—just make sure you eat the good fats avocados, nuts, etc-and proteins to feed your muscles-i hope that this all works out for you-so happy you decided to take control-you only have one you-take care of yourself - your body will thank you by being so much more healthy, you will feel so much better!!! If the skin is way crazy, check into having it removed but please dont NOT get healthy because of the skin issue-you will be much much better off losing that weight than having a little skin! congrats on your Christmas gift!!! I hope it all works out for you!

If you do not breathe through writing, if you do not cry out in writing, or sing in writing, then don't write, because our culture has no use for it.
Always be nice to those younger than you, because they are the ones who will be writing about you.
Is it bad that I really want one of these right now?
Never forget about those who helped you achieve success, for without them you would still be dreaming in the basement.

It's not that I couldn't make this happen, it's just a point of making it from A. Right now. To B. Success. Not so much success that you make copious amounts of money, and live a lavish life.

|PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Former first-round draft pick Rolle finally finds success
|Written by Admin
|Friday, 23 November 2007 11:33
Until one magnificent Sunday.
``He came out of the doghouse,'' teammate Darnell Dockett said, ``and he came out smokin'.''
Playing a roving mix of cornerback and safety, Rolle intercepted three passes, returning two for touchdowns, in Arizona's 35-27 victory at Cincinnati last weekend. He brought his third pick for a score, too, but it was called back by a penalty the Arizona players still are disputing.
No one in the NFL has ever returned three interceptions for a score in a single game.
``Once I get the ball in my hands, I definitely know what to do with it,'' Rolle said. ``I've been a punt returner my whole life. That's how I got recruited into college. It felt good to get the ball in my hands, and I'm looking forward to getting it some more.''
In Cincinnati last Sunday, Rolle picked off Carson Palmer in the first quarter and returned the ball 55 yards for Arizona's first score. In the waning seconds of the third quarter, he took one back 54 yards.
He knew he had to celebrate, and he instinctively chose a back flip. He made it, but is no candidate for the Olympic gymnastics team. Rolle landed off-balance on his feet, then fell to his back. His failure to stick the landing resulted in a $7,500 fine as well as a penalty: Anytime a player goes to the ground in a celebration, it's an automatic infraction.
``I haven't really practiced any end zone moves,'' Rolle said. ``Now that I've touched the paint a couple of times, I might go and practice some, something that won't get me a $7,500 fine.''
The third score, in the fourth quarter, was called back because of the shot Arizona's Antonio Smith gave Palmer as Rolle was racing downfield. Rules don't allow blocks on a quarterback in that situation unless he has made a move toward stopping the player with the ball.
Smith and his teammates swear Palmer took a step or two toward Rolle before being flattened by the big defensive end.
``I could have made history,'' Rolle said. ``It was a great block on Antonio's part. If the same play went down again, I told him to do it again.''
Dennis Green was entering his second season as Cardinals coach when the team made Rolle the No. 8 pick overall in the 2005 draft. He was the second cornerback chosen behind Adam ``Pacman'' Jones.
An All-American at Miami, Rolle was supposed to be the ``cover'' cornerback NFL teams covet.
A knee injury limited him to 11 games in his rookie season, five of them starts, then he started all 16 last season, when Arizona went 5-11 and Green was fired. He entered Sunday's game with two career interceptions.
New coach Ken Whisenhunt made it clear from the start that each player would be evaluated equally, with no special consideration to past high draft picks. Rolle found himself benched in favor of Rod Hood, signed as a free agent.
``It was a very tough time,'' Rolle said. ``Do I feel like I should have lost my job? Absolutely not. You look at all the corners in the league, I've given up three touchdowns the last two years.''
But Rolle kept working, playing as the fifth defensive back in ``nickel'' situations.
``You can either go in the tank or fight back,'' he said.
Then he offered a familiar mantra in the NFL: ``Tough times, they never last, but tough people do.''
Whisenhunt noticed Rolle's attitude.
``I'm sure it's always disappointing not to be the starter when you feel like you're a starter, but sometimes that kind of drive in a player is what makes them become even better,'' Whisenhunt said. ``The biggest thing that I'm most impressed with in Antrel is his focus in practice.''
With Pro Bowl safety Adrian Wilson out with a knee injury, defensive coordinator Clancy Pendergast began using Rolle as the kind of roving, playmaking defender that Wilson was, sometimes sliding him back into a safety position.
``At the University of Miami, I played a lot of inside cornerback, so it's definitely comfortable for me,'' Rolle said. ``Just run and make plays. When you get the opportunity to make the best play you can, just run to the ball.''
Rolle followed a strong performance the previous week by linebacker Karlos Dansby, who had two interceptions in Arizona's victory over Detroit. Between them, Rolle and Dansby have six interceptions in the last two games. They are major reasons the Cardinals are 5-5 for the first time since 1998 and are just one game out of first place in the NFC West.
Rolle still hasn't got the starting job, but he has pushed that issue aside. He knows he's shown he deserves plenty of playing time in a role that could be crucial to Arizona down the stretch.
``You can't be bitter,'' Rolle said. ``My own personal feelings are always going to be there, but at the same time I'm out here to make plays and help out the team. ...
``I'm not a player to sit and pout or even whine and complain in those situations. It's adversity, everyone has to go through it.''

Eagles great Claude Humphrey heads to Hall
The Pro Football Hall of Fame will induct 69-year-old Claude Humphrey this year, alongside punter Ray Guy and five modern era players.
While Derrick Brooks and Walter Jones will enter the Hall in their first year of eligibility, and Michael Strahan, Andre Reed and Aeneas Williams waited relatively short periods of time to be enshrined in Canton, it's been 32 years since Humphrey played his last snap.
The Eagles great was on the ballot for 20 years as a modern-era player but did not make the cut, despite being a finalist three times.
He is the first member of the Eagles' 1980 Super Bowl team to be inducted into the Hall of Fame, and was widely respected as one of the best pass-rushers of his generation. In 1979, his first season in Philly, he collected 10 sacks. The next year, he had 14.5.

Suppose you are the owner of a convenience store. You purchase newspapers at a fair wholesale price from a man named Harry. Each morning Harry delivers a stack of newspapers to your shop by 6:30 a.m., prior to the morning rush.
At 6:00 a.m. one morning you are walking in your neighborhood and see Harry taking a stack of newspapers from a corner. Harry places the papers in his backpack and continues on his way.
Soon after, Harry arrives at your shop to make his usual delivery. Should you continue your business with him now that you have observed him taking those newspapers?This hypothetical situation asks you to exercise your morals. Most of us know that taking property that is not ours is wrong. We have learned this throughout our lives. As children, we learn through experience. When a child grabs another child's toy to play with it without permission, they are disciplined and told that the action is wrong. This belief is reinforced throughout our lives.
However, ethical dilemmas are not always so clear. Let's go back to the newspaper scenario. What if you learn that in addition to taking newspapers, Harry works three jobs to save his family of three kids from poverty. Does this additional information change your view? Are Harry's actions now justified?
When we encounter a dilemma regarding the right vs. wrong thing to do in our personal lives, we use our morals to come to a conclusion. In our professional lives as CPAs, in addition to using our own ethical and moral compass we can turn to the AICPA's Code of Professional Conduct to guide us. A newly revised version of the Code is now available and is effective as of Dec. 15, 2014, with early implementation encouraged. The reformatted Code is broken down into different parts by line of practice and is organized by topic and, where appropriate, subtopic and section. Additionally, the updated Code incorporates two conceptual frameworks, one for members in public practice and one for members in business, to help address ethical dilemmas not covered in the Code. These two conceptual frameworks are effective Dec. 15, 2015, with early implementation also encouraged.
We encourage you to begin exploring the Code on its new online platform. Information on the Ethics Codification project can be found in the recent Journal of Accountancy article, and additional resources, including implementation tools, are available for your use on the Ethics Codification project page. To help us spread the word on this exciting project, please share the recently released infographic illustrating the changes to the Code of Professional Conduct.
What do you think of the changes to the Code? Have you run into ethical dilemmas with your practice or clients?

According to a recent blog entry on the New York Times' website, researchers have found that people who cheated, and got away with it, experienced a thrill, self-satisfaction and a sense of superiority. While that sensation was not as strong as the high that rats apparently get from eating Oreo cookies, it illustrates how exciting cheating can be. Take for instance the following:
So, what does all this mean for CPAs? Should tax and attest clients be subjected to pre- and post-engagement polygraph tests? Should public accounting firms hire former CIA operatives who also happen to be CPAs? Hardly.
Just as The Journal of Personality and Social Psychology study points to a cheater's high, I posit that CPAs experience a rush from doing solid work that is extremely powerful. While I couldn't find any science on a dopamine-type high associated with performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, no one can deny the feeling you get from completing a job well done and knowing how much the public relies on your objectivity and attention to detail. And who among us hasn't experienced the positive effects of doing the right thing, like returning a lost wallet or cell phone? The college my daughter attends has a lost-and-found Facebook page, and I'm astounded at the number of students who find cell phones, computers, car keys and jewelry and make a serious effort to locate the owners.
Additionally, in the achievement oriented, profit-driven world of business, those feelings of contributing to doing the right thing can pay off in the long run. Ethisphere's 2013 World's Most Ethical Companies list of 138 organizations includes some well-known American companies such as Adobe, eBay, Gap, Microsoft, Target, Starbucks and UPS. So it is possible to be both ethical and profitable.
We all know that a financial statement audit is not designed to detect fraud, but CPAs have a lot going for us when it comes to addressing the risk of fraud in an audit. Here are just a few examples:

When performing peer reviews, reviewers document the areas in which firms struggle to comply with professional standards. The AICPA Peer Review Team compiles and periodically communicates these common areas of noncompliance so that other firms won't make the same mistakes. This is just one of the many ways in which peer review benefits the profession.
Over the past few months, peer reviewers have reported that firms failed to properly assess risk and properly document IT risk assessments. Some of the most common areas of noncompliance with the risk assessment standards are listed below, along with some advice to help your firm prevent the same mistakes.
The purpose of the risk assessment standards is to identify and assess the risks of material misstatement—due to fraud or error—at the financial statement and relevant assertion levels. The risk assessment should provide an understanding of the entity and its environment, including the entity's internal controls. It should also act as a basis for designing and implementing substantive audit procedures.
Peer reviewers have identified the following as the most common areas of noncompliance with the risk assessment standards:
While these areas of noncompliance are the most common, others include failure to update language in engagement letters, failure to identify revenue recognition as a fraud risk and failure to document client acceptance and continuance procedures.
Peer reviewers say your firm should:
For an in-depth explanation of the most common areas of noncompliance and how your firm can avoid the same mistakes, check out this video that features LaShaun King, CPA, Technical Manager with the AICPA Peer Review Team.
In addition, you may find that the AICPA's award-winning Audit Risk Assessment Tool to be a helpful resource when performing risk assessments. It is designed to walk an experienced auditor through the risk assessment procedures and document those decisions necessary to prepare an effective and efficient audit program.
What methods does your firm use to assess risks?

Recently a colleague of mine attended a Tomorrow's Company lecture in London as a guest of CIMA. Tomorrow's Company is a London-based think tank that offers lectures and publications on issues like leadership and talent, sustainability and governance. CIMA, as a corporate member of Tomorrow's Company, sponsors some lectures, as they did on this particular evening. The lecture she attended was given by Dick Olver, Chairman of BAE Systems, one of the world's largest defense contractors.
Dick's lecture was titled "A journey of culture change" and centered around his organization's successful efforts in the area of ethics. With Dick's appointment as chairman, he ushered in a complete overhaul of the company's culture. He said, "The culture we've tried to develop is one in which our people take the company's core ethical values into account in every decision they take. One where doing the right thing becomes an almost subconscious response."The lecture was a great tie in to one of the themes we did for CGMA titled, "Doing the right thing." Our flagship report for this theme was "Managing responsible business – a global survey on business ethics" – a great read on the challenges businesses face and the role management accountants can play in filling ethical gaps within their organizations.
During the Tomorrow's Company lecture, Dick gave this five-pronged approach to transparency:
When my colleague recounted some of Dick's speech, I was struck by how much of the tone was echoed in what we have put out for CGMA designation holders on CGMA.org. It inspired me to go back and re-read our Ethical reflection checklist—which I encourage you to do, too. And leave a comment below sharing your thoughts on organizational ethics. How does your business do the right thing?
Finally, I'm really excited to be able to tell you that we will be bringing a Tomorrow's Company lecture to the U.S. this fall. More information will be posted to CGMA.org when available.

As CPAs, we are increasingly called upon to use our professional judgment in facing key auditing, tax and accounting concerns – especially as the profession moves from being rules-based to more principles-based. We gain our ability to apply professional judgment over time, through experience, training and an understanding of what a reasonable person would perceive as the right course of action under certain circumstances. We are informed by our upbringing, by the guidance of our mentors and colleagues, and during interactions with our employers and clients.
At some point during our careers our professional judgment is likely to be tested.For example, what would you do if your supervisor tells you to post revenue even though there's no substantiating backup? She tells you that following her order will be good for business, good for year-end bonuses – and good for your career. Of course, if something goes wrong, it's your conscience, reputation and credential on the line. But if you don't do it, you could be disciplined or even fired. The AICPA Ethics Hotline handles dozens of inquires like this each year.
The AICPA explores this issue in a new video on cgma.org, Ethical Conduct Is Never Out Of Vogue. It demonstrates how practitioners, specifically on the business and industry side of accounting, might be pressured into behaving unethically. Ana, a young accounting professional, is asked to record revenue from a large sale that hasn't "quite" gone through yet in order to boost year-end figures. Although she's assured by everyone, including the CEO of the company that the sale will go through, she questions the ethical implications of recording the revenue. The video takes us through the steps we might take in a similar situation.
Take a look at the video and ask yourself: would you have reached the same conclusion Ana did? Would your conclusion have been the same if Ana had three kids in college, a spouse out of work or any other situation where the possibility of losing her job would put Ana in a financial bind?
To help us all make the right calls regarding subordination of judgment, the AICPA's Professional Ethics Executive Committee is proposing a revision to the Code of Professional Conduct (Interpretation No. 102-4), which currently provides guidance for members in business on this issue, but expands that guidance for members in public practice. The proposal provides examples of how members in public practice should deal with issues around differences of opinion with a supervisor related to the application of accounting principles; auditing standards; or other relevant professional standards, including standards applicable to tax and advisory services or applicable laws or regulations. Comments on the proposal are being accepted through Jan. 16, 2013.
The AICPA Code of Professional Conduct provides a framework for ethical behavior and is the backbone of the accounting profession. If you're confronted with a situation involving subordination of judgment and need help, remember that AICPA's Help Line is always there for you. Inquiries can be made by phone, 888.777.7077, or via e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.

With the importance of ethics and non-financial reporting rising on the global agenda, accounting professionals are in a unique position to make an important contribution to creating a sustainable ethical operating environment. The AICPA and CIMA have developed a number of resources to assist CPA, CGMAs in guiding their organizations to long-term sustainability and success, but these resources shed light on the challenges many CPA business clients face, and so apply to CPAs in a firm setting as well.
Here are our top five.
With the backing of a strong ethical culture, all accountants can be highly effective in playing what we believe is a key role—drawing on both their training and understanding of professional ethics, as well as their skills in obtaining, analyzing and acting upon management information—to guide their organizations, or those of their clients, to long-term sustainability. We encourage you to explore these and the many other resources available on cgma.org and to consider becoming a CGMA.

A meeting of the Associated Students Inc. took place on Friday, Jan. 17, in the multipurpose room to discuss various student issues and events.
The Student Union has been collecting signatures from students requesting The Wall Street Journal to be available on campus.
This addition of The Wall Street Journal would benefit all students, especially business majors. According to the Student Union and Organizational Governance Liaison, EJ Callahan, the Student Union only pays for The Bakersfield Californian.
It is yet to be determined if ASI will approve the addition of The Wall Street Journal. If approved, roughly 25 copies will be purchased two days a week.
Another issue discussed at the ASI meeting was a student-only general education committee meeting on Jan. 28. A time and place for the meeting has not yet been decided.
This would enable students to discuss courses offered and what students think should be considered cut or moved to general education status.
Thursday nights, from 5 to 9 p.m. is karaoke. Students can use iPads to connect with ASI's Facebook page, which enters students into a drawing to win a parking permit for the next quarter.
Some changes to the CSUB campus were also discussed, such as the art department.
With a new art center being built, possible uses for the old art building were discussed.
One option was to alter the old building into private art studios for students, while another option is to make an art lounge for art students to gather.
Among events mentioned, ASI Director of Social Sciences and Education Stephanie Compos, mentioned planning a DJ competition.
Some new ideas were also suggested for turning the lounge into a 24-hour room where a students' ID card will allow access.
Obtaining new copiers and a printer for the Antelope Valley campus was also recommended.

Minnesota Golden Gophers quarterback Philip Nelson announced on Thursday that he's decided to transfer to another program.
Nelson thanked Minnesota head coach Jerry Kill in a statement:
I want to thank Coach Kill for the opportunity to play football at the University of Minnesota. I have the utmost respect for Coach Kill and what he's done for this program. I also want to reach out to to all the great Minnesota fans that supported the football program and say thank you. Your effort makes a difference.
For me, I am looking to play in a system that centers more around the pass game which utilizes my skill sets. I am excited to go out and meet with programs that match up with my talents (Minneapolis Star Tribune).
Nelson led the Golden Gophers to a 8-5 record this past season. He completed 94 of his 186 passing attempts for 1,306 yards and nine touchdowns. He also rushed for six TDs.

My dogs say "Train Me" when I have these
posted 5 years ago
As the name says, these treats are wonderful for training. They are small so you can give you dog quite a few in a session and you don't have to break them up. My dogs really seem to enjoy the flavor. I am not thrilled that sugar is one of the ingredients, but a I don't think a little will hurt my dogs any. This is something I will continue to use during our training sessions.
Pros: great for training
Cons: none

Rob Gronkowski on Friday signed a six-year contract extension with the New England Patriots for $54 million, a deal that makes him the second-highest-paid tight end in the NFL behind only Dallas' Jason Witten. All due respect to Mr. Witten who is a fine player, but Gronkowski is without question the best tight end in the NFL. His stats for 2011 boggle the mind. 90 receptions, 1,327 yards and 17 TDs. And he blocks too. (And sometimes he dances the night away, but that's a whole other story.)
Gronk's size-speed-strength combination makes him the match-up nightmare of match-up nightmares. Show me a defensive player who says they enjoy trying to cover Gronk and I'll show you a liar. His unique skills open up all sorts of possibilities for the Patriots, who team him with Aaron Hernandez to create a devastating TE combo. And it doesn't hurt that Tom Brady is throwing them the ball.
The Gronk/Hernandez combo, and the way the Patriots employ it, has touched off a tight end revolution in the NFL, and it seems like every team is trying to jump on the bandwagon. That includes the Vikings. This offseason the Vikings surprised many by signing former Seahawks TE John Carlson to a fairly sizable five-year contract (though the provisions of the deal actually give the Vikes the chance to bail after two years). But given Bill Musgrave's stated desire to create a TE combo reminiscent of Gronk-Hernandez, the Carlson deal makes all the sense in the world. With Visanthe Shiancoe leaving town, they needed a second reliable pass-catching TE, and Carlson should fit the bill.
Carlson would be the Aaron Hernandez in this particular one-two punch, with Kyle Rudolph taking on the Gronkowski role. Not that anyone expects Rudolph to post Gronk-like numbers. That would be asking far too much. What the Vikings would like is for Rudolph to begin showing some Gronkowski-like ability to dominate smaller, less-physical defenders, and make the kind of big plays that can really cause headaches for defensive coordinators and open up an offense.
In 2011 Rudolph showed only flashes of the talent many think he possesses. His numbers were modest, but that had as much to do with instability at the QB position and the overall limitations of the offense as anything. What we did learn about Rudolph is that he can make absurdly great catches. There's little question that Rudolph possesses the body control, concentration and hands to be an outstanding tight end. And, though he's no Gronkowski as a pure physical specimen, he certainly has enough speed and strength to make life difficult for defenses.
Rudolph undoubtedly has all the tools necessary to make the leap into top 5 territory among tight ends in 2012. The question is, will the Vikings offense evolve enough to give Rudolph a chance to show what he can really do? That all depends on one person: Christian Ponder. The Vikings will go only as far as Ponder is able to take them. If Ponder grows, guys like Rudolph will get more accurate passes thrown their way, and will have a chance to put up numbers. If Ponder falters, everyone will suffer including Rudolph.
There's little doubt in my mind that the Vikings have assembled enough pieces to have a proficient offense, especially now that they've retooled the offensive line around first round pick Matt Kalil. And, despite last season's struggles, I'm willing to believe Bill Musgrave can design and run an offense that takes advantage of these pieces. Ponder is the major wild card. No one expects him to become Tom Brady, any more than anyone expects Rudolph to be Gronkowski, but for the Vikes to flourish, he must at least develop into a reliable, consistent, accurate passer. And Rudolph must become a legitimate weapon.

pakistan-chinese nuclear cooperation
China has privately agreed to follow a "step-by-step" approach to fulfilling Pakistan's aspiration for an expanded nuclear energy program, rather than sign an ambitious civil nuclear program of the kind recently struck between the US and India, senior Pakistani and Western officials said on Thursday. Private discussions are believed to have been held on expanded nuclear cooperation between Pakistan's president Asif Ali Zardari and Chinese leaders during Zardari's four-day visit to China, which began Tuesday. A senior Pakistani government official, familiar with discussions between Zardari and Chinese officials, claimed Thursday that China had agreed to "consider further nuclear power reactors to fulfill our needs. The relationship (on the nuclear issue) remains intact." Speaking to CBS News on condition of anonymity, the official added, "there is now a complete understanding on our future cooperation." China has installed a 325MW nuclear power reactor at Chashma, in Pakistan's central Punjab province. Beijing is also currently working to install a second power reactor of the same capacity there. In ten years, Pakistan plans to produce up to 8,000MW of electricity using nuclear energy. In addition to the two Chashma reactors, Pakistan has one Canadian-supplied nuclear energy reactor with a capacity of 137MW. Western diplomats say Pakistan is seeking to bridge the large gap between its installed capacity and future ambitions with Chinese help. – CBS
secret service in dangerous territory
Arlington, Va. : The Secret Service has now labeled the "kill him" report as unfounded. Why isn't the Post giving this report as much coverage as the original false report received?
Dana Milbank : Glad you asked, because I saw this earlier. This is actually about the incident in Scranton, not the one in Clearwater, Fla, that I wrote about. I wasn't at the Scranton event, but I have to say the Secret Service is in dangerous territory here. In cooperation with the Palin campaign, they've started preventing reporters from leaving the press section to interview people in the crowd. This is a serious violation of their duty — protecting the protectee — and gets into assisting with the political aspirations of the candidate. It also often makes it impossible for reporters to get into the crowd to question the people who say vulgar things. So they prevent reporters from getting near the people doing the shouting, then claim it's unfounded because the reporters can't get close enough to identify the person. – WaPo
britain is a squalid moral slum
The OECD's Working Group on Bribery sharply criticised the UK's failure to bring its anti-bribery laws into line with its international obligations under the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention and urged the rapid introduction of new legislation. Current UK legislation makes it very difficult for prosecutors to bring an effective case against a company for alleged bribery offenses. Although the UK ratified the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention 10 years ago, it has so far failed to successfully prosecute any bribery case against a company. The OECD Working Group, which brings together all 37 countries that are parties to the OECD Anti-Bribery Convention, is "disappointed and seriously concerned" about the UK's continued failure to address deficiencies in its laws on bribery of foreign public officials and on corporate liability for foreign bribery, which it said has hindered investigations. The Group acknowledged positive aspects in the UK's fight against foreign bribery, including the allocation of significant financial resources and nation-wide jurisdiction to a specialised unit of the City of London Police for foreign bribery investigations. It also noted the UK's first conviction of an individual in September 2008 for foreign bribery in international business transactions, and its recent anti-corruption strategy to improve and strengthen the UK's law and structures to tackle foreign bribery. But it emphasised that reforms are urgently needed and should be dealt with as a matter of political priority.
Recent cases have also highlighted systemic deficiencies that make clear the need to safeguard the independence of the Serious Fraud Office and eliminate unnecessary obstacles to prosecution. In a report following a supplementary review of the UK's implementation of its obligations under the Convention, the Working Group reiterated its previous 2003, 2005 and 2007 recommendations that the UK enact new foreign bribery legislation at the earliest possible date. It expressed its strong regrets concerning uncertainty about the UK's commitment to establish an effective corporate liability regime in accordance with the Convention, as recommended in 2005. The full report is available here, with the recommendations on page 70. Among its main recommendations are that the UK should:
In light of the numerous issues of serious concern, the Working Group has requested the UK to provide quarterly written reports on legislative progress for each Working Group meeting. It may also carry out follow-up visits to the UK, and may take further appropriate action after it considers the reports or any on-site visits. The Working Group warned that uncertainty over the UK's legislative framework may trigger a need for increased due diligence over UK companies by their commercial partners or multilateral development banks.
this taheri is the 'yellow stars' guy
Jackson denies report by controversial columnist
Ron Kampeas, JTA, Oct 16 2008
The Rev. Jesse Jackson and Amir Taheri, a conservative whose writings about the Middle East have a habit of coming undone, collided this week, and sparks were flying. Jackson said his views were distorted in an article by Taheri that quoted the Democrat as saying "Zionists" would lose their influence under an Obama administration. Jackson's denials did not keep Republicans from trying to use the remarks against Obama in a fraught presidential election. The report in Tuesday's New York Post by Taheri said Jackson told the first World Policy Forum last week in Evian, France, that "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades" would lose influence under Obama, that Obama promised "fundamental changes" in US foreign policy, that the most important changes would take place in the Middle East, where a President Obama would end "decades of putting Israel's interests first," and that if the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is not resolved, the Middle East will "remain a source of danger to us all." Taheri also quoted Jackson as saying, in an interview they conducted after Jackson delivered his remarks,
Barack is determined to repair our relations with the world of Islam and Muslims. Thanks to his background and ecumenical approach, he knows how Muslims feel while remaining committed to his own faith.
Jackson was quick to label the article a distortion, saying, in a statement released Wednesday by his Rainbow Push coalition,
The recent column in the New York Post by Amir Taheri in no way represents my views on Middle East peace and security. The writer is selectively imposing his own point of view, and distorting mine. I have a long-held position of a two-state solution to achieve peace in the Middle East. I stand forthrightly for the security and stability of Israel, its protection from any form of hostility, and a peaceful, non-violent resolution to co-existing with its Palestinian neighbors.
Jackson also accused Taheri of seeking to "incite fear and division." Sources close to Jackson said some of the quotes in Taheri's article were fabricated — Jackson never used the term "Zionists," for instance, they said. It was unclear if Taheri claimed to be in the room when Jackson made his remarks, or if others had reported the remarks to the writer. In an editorial Thursday, the New York Post stood by the Jackson story, noting that in his statement, Jackson did not directly deny the quotes. "He meant what he said," an editorial said, "until things blew up in his face. Jesse Jackson needs to shut up and realize that his biggest enemy is his mouth."
Taheri, a favorite of conservatives who back confrontation with Iran, has a controversial past. Some of his writings on his native Iran have been debunked by experts as based on fabrications and distortions. Canada's National Post apologized for his 2006 report, that Iranian leaders planned to force Jews to wear a yellow insignia, after the claim proved unfounded. More recently, Taheri reported that Obama had tried secretly to persuade Iraqi leaders to stall the withdrawal of US troops, in order to prevent the White House from earning a success. Obama's campaign and the White House both denied the substance of the report, and the Democratic camp accused Taheri of being in the pocket of the mcCain campaign. "Jesse Jackson confirmed the Jewish community's long-standing concerns with Barack Obama's policies on Israel and the Middle East," the Republican Jewish Coalition said in a statement. The AJC chimed in, without first checking the veracity of the report, Jackson's advisers told JTA. "Rev. Jackson's remarks, which appeared in an interview with the journalist Amir Taheri in today's New York Post, echo classic anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about Jewish power," AJC Executive Director David Harris said in a statement. The Obama campaign responded to the remarks. Obama national security spokeswoman Wendy Morigi said in a statement:
Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. is not an adviser to the Obama campaign and is therefore in no position to interpret or share Barack Obama's views on Israel and foreign policy. As he has made clear throughout his career and throughout this campaign, Barack Obama has a fundamental commitment to a strong US-Israel relationship, and he is advised by people like Dennis Ross, Daniel Kurtzer, Rep. Robert Wexler, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and Senator Joe Biden who share that commitment. As President, he will ensure that Israel can defend itself from every threat it faces, stand with Israel in its quest for a secure peace with its neighbors, and use all elements of American power to end Iran's illicit nuclear program. No false charges can change Barack Obama's unshakeable commitment to Israel's security.
mooseburger-eating creationist news
(I believe the reason McCain ended up with the mooseburger-eating creationist as running mate is not that he decided against Lieberman, but that Lieberman decided against him. On Salon Radio, Glenn Greenwald asked Harper's Scott Horton about his recent reporting on how Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol lobbied the McCain campaign to select Palin as the Republican vice presidential nominee. Horton explained that the McCain campaign is now regretting following Kristol's advice, calling the Palin pick a "total disaster". – RB)
The $55 trillion question (extract)
Pepe Escobar, Asia Times
[...] As McCain inexorably implodes, an extremely angry Republican party in most of its strands rears its ugly head — the extraordinary levels of hate at recent McCain-Palin rallies are just the tip of the iceberg. This correspondent has seen the mob become really brown-shirt scary, brandishing "Obama bin Lyin" placards or yelling "Kill him!" In the official Republican website in Sacramento, California, there was even a direct link between Obama and Osama bin Laden — with an explicit call to "Waterboard Barack Obama" (it was finally pulled out by Republican leaders). Meanwhile, not insignificant hordes of sensible Republicans are in desertion mode, appalled by the shenanigans of the mooseburger-eating creationist from Alaska. As the real economy on ground level is bound to get much worse before election day, that will only add more fuel to Republican fire, something that happens to turn off independent and undecided voters in droves. All conditions are in place for an Obama landslide. Obama is leading in Ohio, as in virtually any swing state except Indiana, according to Real Clear Politics polls. This is due a great deal to the Obama campaign's formidable ground game. According to Democratic operative Josh Lyman, the Obama headquarters in Columbus, Ohio, a mega-church with a basement the size of a supermarket, is staffed by no less than 600 hyperactive tech youths. So it may all translate into an Obama landslide. And then what? [...]
a few holes in bamford's story
Reaction to James Bamford Interview about
CIA's Protection of Almihdhar and Alhazmi
Kevin Fenton
Author James Bamford was recently interviewed by Amy Goodman about his new book, The Shadow Factory: The Ultra-Secret NSA from 9/11 to the Eavesdropping on America. He talked about some issues that are covered in the 9/11 Timeline's CIA Hiding Alhazmi and Almihdhar and Yemen hub categories. The interview follows on from an article in the Congressional Quarterly and it is well worth reading the whole thing. I have some comments on a couple of the aspects Bamford touches on. First, I'd like to say that Bamford is obviously a really good reporter and he's done a much better job on this than anyone who came before him (for example, Terry McDermott knew about the intercepts between San Diego and Sana'a, but relegated this information to the endnotes). Having said this, as far as I can see at the moment, he's making a couple of errors and missing some things out.
(1) Main criticism of Bamford. So far, he has only talked about the CIA's failure to inform the FBI about two of the 9/11 hijackers, Khalid Almihdhar and Nawaf Alhazmi, in January 2000. There were multiple other failures, in March 2000 when a cable came in saying Alhazmi had entered the US, in January 2001 when a source identified al-Qaeda leader Khallad bin Attash as being at al-Qaeda's Malaysia summit, in the 11 June shouting match, the Moussaoui case, and when Wilshire was told Almihdhar was in the US. If the failure in January was due to a conspiracy, not a dog eating the CIA's homework — which is what we had previously been led to believe — then it is extremely likely the other failures were also due to a conspiracy to withhold information from the FBI. This protection went on until late August 2001, at the very least. Without it, there is no way on earth that the 9/11 plot could have succeeded. The FBI would simply have arrested some of the plotters as a part of its Cole bombing investigation and put the rest under surveillance (or arrested them for the various other offences they committed — like immigration violations and driving without a licence).
(2) Also, if the CIA was deliberately preventing the FBI from learning of the hijackers, then you can bet that they themselves had the hijackers under surveillance, although possibly through some external organisation. What was that unit? Who was on it? Who ran it? Show me the records. How could they possibly fail to notice all the other hijackers that interacted repeatedly with Almihdhar and Alhazmi? Did they not find the flight training and mass ticket purchase for 9/11 suspicious?
(3) Bamford says the December 1999 intercept about Kuala Lumpur was the first sign of 9/11, but I don't think so. AFAIK the first sign is detailed on page 155 of the Congressional Inquiry report (two paragraphs beginning "in early 1999″) — this is about an NSA intercept of the hijackers' calls before December 1999. According to former British intelligence officer John Hughes-Wilson, Almihdhar and Alhazmi were actually talking about hijacking airliners in this intercepted call. I even picked up a hint in the Times that the hijacked airliners were to be used in unconventional ways.
(4) Bamford says that the CIA lost Alhazmi and Almihdhar in Kuala Lumpur, but this is actually supposed to have occurred in Thailand. The problem here is two-fold. First, in Malaysia the CIA had bin Attash under surveillance when he called the hotel where they stayed in Bangkok — making finding them in the city much easier — and the CIA lied about this later. Second, while the Alhazmi, Almihdhar and bin Attash were in Thailand, Alec Station chief Rich B lied to his superiors about the surveillance of them repeatedly-he claimed they were still in Malaysia and under surveillance, when he must have known they were in Thailand.
(5) The 9/11 Commission was aware of the calls between San Diego and Sana'a and did mention them in its report (on page 87-88 two paragraphs beginning "The law requires…" and page 222 two sentences beginning "Mihdhar's mind seems…"). However, they failed to point out that the NSA intercepted these calls or provide a satisfactory explanation why the NSA did nothing with them. How come?
(6) The FBI had specifically requested that the NSA inform it of all calls between the house in Yemen and the US, but the NSA failed to act on this request, too. Would it be too much to ask for an explanation of this?
(7) The limited hangout excuse that is emerging is that Alec Station was allowing Almihdhar and Alhazmi to operate unchallenged by the FBI so they could wrap up a plot in Malaysia/southeast Asia. This is just completely ludicrous. Malaysia was a base for fundraising for militants, they did not do attacks there, the attacks were always elsewhere in SE Asia, like the Philippines. Plus, al-Qaeda is headquartered in south Asia and the Middle East, why would they need a base in Paterson, New Jersey, to conduct an attack in Malaysia? And, by the way, didn't the Cole blow up in the middle of all this? Alec Station thought the next attack was going to be in SE Asia, then there was an attack on the Cole in Yemen, demonstrably falsifying this theory, then Alec Station continued to think the next attack was going to be in SE Asia!!?? That makes no sense. And what about justice for the 17 people killed on the Cole? The CIA was protecting an al-Qaeda terrorist co-responsible for the Cole bombing for nearly a year so it could prevent some theoretical attack in Malaysia!? I don't believe any of this. Here's a simple question: if the CIA did decide to withhold information about Almihdhar and Alhazmi, then what is the name of the officer who made this decision?

The popular wisdom to best slow down the premiere scorers in the N.B.A. is to make them work. Work to get their shots. Work on defense. If you can't stop a guy, you can tire him out. "If he's gonna guard me, he's gonna run all night." That's Corey Brewer on tonight's matchup against Kevin Durant.
Oklahoma City probable starting lineup:
PG Reggie Jackson
SG Thabo Sefolosha
SF Kevin Durant
PF Serge Ibaka
C Kendrick Perkins
Durant had 42 points on 24 field goal attempts and 24 free throw attempts against the Utah Jazz Wednesday night. With Ibaka going just 4-15 and Jackson going 5-10, there's either going to have to be a lot more Sefolosha in the Thunder offense or the volume of Durant's attempts (and points) will be up there until whenever Russell Westbrook hurries back (said to be sometime in the next two weeks or so).
Minnesota probable starting lineup:
PG Ricky Rubio
SG Kevin Martin
SF Corey Brewer
PF Kevin Love
C Nikola Pekovic
The superstar match-ups are Durant-Brewer and Love-Ibaka. Brew will likely be the first line of defense-by-committee approach, while Ibaka will more than likely be able to hold his own in a fun matchup pitting the league's leading shot blocker against the league's best stretch-four.
- Martin gets a look at the road not taken in his first game against his old team. Thabo should be all over Martin as he looks to bounce back from a rough opening night.
- Rubio and Westbrook have rarely been 100% healthy against eachother, and it's a shame.
- Foul trouble could expose a lack of Thunder depth.
How Minnesota balances its new, stretchier offense by giving Pek some more touches down low against Perk (hopefully on the move less than to showcase that shotput of a hook shot) and hitting Brew on some of that movement he promised to make Durant work on the defensive end will determine the Wolves fate tonight more than how they guard Durant.
Very interesting early-season matchup.
