A Brief History of College Cheating Scandals
Cheating and college sports go hand-in-hand. This is especially true in college football, with its extreme competitiveness and the potential to launch careers. Cheating scandals have embroiled most of the top colleges in the country for decades, and the cases run the gamut from cash payments to players, free (and illegal under NCAA rules) perks, academic fraud, financial aid fraud, and -- of course -- drugs, alcohol, and prostitutes. Here is a list of some of the most prominent and cringe-worthy scandals in the history of college sports:1) 1986: SMU gets the death penalty. In 1986, the ABC affiliate in Dallas revealed that the Southern Methodist University football program had been paying its players signing bonuses of up to $25,000. Further investigations by Dallas media unearthed apartments provided to players rent-free, and an NCAA investigation showed that thirteen players had been paid about $61,000 from a slush fund set up for that specific purpose. This practice had gone on for years, with the complicity of both coaches and top school officials.

Jonathan Zimmerman: Why I Love, But Also Hate, March Madness
Jonathan Zimmerman is a professor of history and education at New York University. He is the author of "Small Wonder: The Little Red Schoolhouse in History and Memory" (Yale University Press).I'm a crazed basketball fan, so I love it when the NCAA tournament rolls around. But I'm also an educator, and so I hate myself for watching.That's because college sports are – to put it bluntly – a plague on American higher education. They add a big-ticket item to our mounting costs, and they compromise our academic quality. And now we've got the numbers to prove it.Let's start with costs. Colleges in the Football Bowl Subdivision – the most competitive of the Division I programs – spent an average of nearly $92,000 per athlete in 2010, according to a January study by the American Institutes for Research. For the student population at large, the average per capita spending was less than $14,000.I'll spare you the math: These schools spend more than six times as much on athletes as they do on students generally....

Luther Spoehr: Review of Albert J. Figone's "Cheating the Spread: Gamblers, Point Shavers, and Game Fixers in College Football and Basketball" (University of Illinois Press, 2012)
Luther Spoehr, an HNN book editor, co-teaches a course on the history of intercollegiate athletics at Brown University."The race may not be to the swift, nor the battle to the strong," the inimitable Damon Runyon observed, "but that's the way to bet." Unless, he might have added, the fix is in. And as Albert Figone demonstrates, the fix has been in many times in major college sports over the past seventy-five years or so. Figone's research into "court records, newspaper articles, books, government documents, magazine articles, documents found in university archives, scholarly journals, and interviews" has produced a chronicle that is both impressive and depressing.

How the most ideologically polarized Americans live different lives
For America's most ardent liberals and conservatives, polarization begins at home.

More Americans say U.S. failed to achieve its goals in Iraq
As Sunni militants make a major military push against the central government in Iraq, the Obama administration is said to have rebuffed requests from Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki to use drones to strike at extremist bases. That reported reluctance follows years of U.S. military intervention in Iraq that many Americans say was misguided and failed to achieve its goals.
The polarized Congress of today has its roots in the 1970s
You don't have to look hard to see evidence of political polarization — just watch cable news, listen to talk radio or follow social-media debates.

Their representatives in Congress are divided too, and have […]

How Pew Research conducted the polarization survey and launched a new research panel
Throughout its history, the Pew Research Center has periodically conducted major surveys that take an in-depth look at important trends in American political attitudes and behavior. Today we released one such survey on political polarization, which is arguably the defining feature of early 21st century American politics. This is reflected not only in the public's […]

The best major cities for a moneywise Fourth of July
Americans are likely to spend upwards of $300 each this Fourth of July, according to a recent report by Card Hub.
Travel expenses, parking, food, hotels and entertainment all add up quickly, which is why Card Hub researched which of the country's 30 largest cities offered the most affordable Fourth of July celebration.
The study took into account — among other things — the cost of an overnight stay in a local hotel room, the city's "walkability," how many local art establishments there are (in case the fireworks display just isn't doing it for you, I suppose), traffic congestion and the likelihood of rain.
What they came up with is a pretty interesting ranking, even if they overlooked some of the famous parades and fireworks displays right here in Utah.
Find out here which major cities have the most moneywise Independence Day celebrations.

Sooners outscore Tide to win Sugar Bowl
Jan 3rd, 2014 - Sports News
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Trevor Knight and the 11th-ranked Oklahoma Sooners have closed their season by knocking off the two-time defending BCS champs in the Sugar Bowl.
Knight completed 32 of his 44 passes for 348 yards and four touchdowns as the Sooners knocked off No. 3 Alabama 45-31. Oklahoma scored the last 17 points of the first half to take a 31-17 lead into the locker room. Knight put the Sooners ahead to stay with a 43-yard TD pass to Jalen Saunders with 2:59 left in the half, less than two minutes before Sterling Sheppard scored on a 13-yard run.
The Crimson Tide had the ball with a chance to tie in the final minute until Geneo Grissom returned an AJ McCarron fumble eight yards for the game-clinching touchdown. McCarron passed for 387 yards and two touchdowns but was intercepted twice as Alabama ends the season on a two-game losing streak.

Acquisition workforce
A well-trained workforce is the most important ingredient for acquisition success
I am encouraged by the long-overdue recognition of the important role of acquisition in President Barack Obama's March 4 contracting memo, which has helped tremendously to focus attention on the workforce. Although modest steps toward strengthening the acquisition workforce have already been taken, much more must be done.
We do not need more reviews or competency studies, further discussions on who belongs in the acquisition workforce, or arbitrary new hiring goals. What we need is action.
The government must plan for and manage a multisector workforce. Strategically established, well-defined approaches for hiring the right people for critical agency functions and awarding and managing the right contracts and grants are crucial to mission success.
The Office of Federal Procurement Policy should define the federal acquisition workforce to include people with the broad range of skills necessary for successful acquisitions — from those who help define the government's needs to those who award the contracts and those who administer and oversee contractors' performance.
Congress should legislatively expand the role of the OFPP administrator to include authority for "acquisition" in its broadest context and should ensure that agencies recognize and support the strategic role that acquisition serves at their agencies.
Oversight professionals must be made an integral part of the government's acquisition team and the government's continuous improvement process. They should not be outsiders or after-the-fact critics. Acquisition training for people in the oversight and audit communities is essential and must emphasize that they are key partners with the acquisition community, without any hint of compromise to their independence.
To accomplish those changes, we need strong leaders. We need an OFPP administrator and a General Services Administration administrator now.
OFPP must issue clear, executable guidance on the phrase "inherently governmental." Agencies must then develop strategic plans that reflect a balanced workforce that is focused on hiring for inherently governmental and critical core positions.
Ensuring the proper execution, oversight, accountability and effectiveness of federal acquisition requires policies that balance advance planning, resources and compliance. Those policies must be based on sound data and thoughtful debate rather than on anecdotes or headlines and must focus on actions that will truly improve performance and results rather than adding layers of non-value-added processes or reviews.
The most critical near-term priority must be to focus on the federal employees charged with planning, awarding and managing federal contracts and grants.
Developing a well-trained and well-supported acquisition workforce is the single most important ingredient for success. Delivering on that message will do more to strengthen the federal workforce than almost anything else.

Issa Challenges Obama's Executive Privilege [VIDEO]
He's been demanding answers from Attorney General Eric Holder for more than a year. Now, Republican Congressman Darrell Issa has questions for President Obama and his claim of executive privilege over documents related to the Fast and Furious operation.
FOX News Radio's Rich Johnson reports from Washington:
Audio clip:
House Oversight Committee Chairman Darryl Issa started the letter by citing recent court rulings on executive privilege that said it can only be used for documents directly involving the President or top advisors.
Therefore, asserts Issa, President Obama must be hiding his own involvement in Fast and Furious, or the actions of top advisers.
The White House response: That's absurd.
A spokesman says Presidents from both parties have invoked executive privledge on material from many departments in the entire executive branch.

If your station does not have the resource or time to customize a full portal experience through COVE Plus or Pro, this is a great option for you. By simply copying and pasting a single line of code on to your webpage, your users will be exposed to a wonderful variety of PBS content, without any effort needed to update or maintain the experience locally.
Can I put more than one COVE Lite on my other station pages?
Station are able to grab the code from Station Remote Control and implement the Lite version of COVE on any page of your station site. Each implementation, however, will include the same programs and feature the same content; one player cannot be scheduled separately from another.
Will it play other stations' local content?
The COVE Lite player will be programmed, updated, and maintained by PBS editorial staff. If a local station within the COVE Pro portal decided to share their local content with the system, at some point one of those local programs could be schedule in to the national player, where appropriate.
Can users select which episode they specifically want to watch?
The COVE Lite iframe player will feature a drop down menu for users to select which national production they would like to watch; specific episodes within will not be available for users to specifically chose from.
Can I customize the player?
Customization options for stations are limited. COVE Lite has a set size of 710x1450 pixels. The size may be altered minimally, but other than that it is more of a "take what you get" player.
For more COVE FAQs, visit the COVE Resource Center in SRC here.
Launch Details & Next Steps
COVE Lite Beta is now available to all stations in the modules+toolkits section of Station Remote Control here. Once the ad-serving feature is ready, a 300x60 pixel banner ad will automatically appear in the space explained above and the word "beta" will be removed.
For those stations who have indicated they would like to start with the COVE Lite product, we will be sending you a packet of information that will include instructions on "Implementing COVE Lite." This information will also be included in SRC.
Questions & Related Material
There are additional products available to stations as part of the PBS Comprehensive Online Video Ecosystem (COVE). For more information, visit the COVE Resource Center.

Whirlpool Stainless Steel Appliances Streak
I have a stainless steel Whirlpool dishwasher and my son has three stainless Whirlpool appliances and all have the same problem. When you clean them with any cleaning product I have tried, it leaves dark streaks all over. While you are cleaning the steel, it looks like it will come out bright and beautiful, but after it dries, it is all streaked. The only thing I was able to use that did not have that phenomenon was a cooking oil spray. Does anyone have Whirlpool or other appliances with that problem? I have other stainless appliances and sinks that you can use anything on and they come out shiny and no streaks. Anything else to try?
I stopped using cleaning products or polishes on mine. I tried so many different ones all left them streaky or greasy... Now I just use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe them clean and another to dry. Look great for weeks with lots of teenage boys in the house.
Same as xc60 ... no greasy/oily "cleaning" products. I did use such products in the past. Gently scrubbed the residue off (rub only in direction of the polishing marks and rinse well) with Bar Keeper's Friend. Now I wipe with a damp cloth, and use Bar Keeper's Friend when needed to deal with stubborn smudges and spills.
Bar Keeper's Friend contains oxalic acid which effectively removes and refreshes the protective chromium oxide layer on stainless steel.
Same here. Gave up a long time ago with gunk and oils. Attracts dust and streaks easily.
It takes a bit of time to get it all off the first time. Stay with it, go with the grain, wipe and wipe, clean again, and use a very clean cloth to dry. Might take a few tries.
Now i just do a simple clean every other month, and maybe a simple wipe and buff once a week if that. You must dry it well. Leaves streaks if left to dry on its own.
I use BarKeeps or more often BonAmi.
Some minor 'paw' prints near the handles will buff off with just a cloth now that all that 'stainless' cleaner gunk is no longer used.

Fiction Shelved True Stories.The air was fresh,
the leaves were crisp,
you wore your newsboy cap,
and I wore those leggings that we ripped that night by the lake
the benches were full,
but we didn't care,
we found our place amongst the blades of grass and the critters between them
you spoke with your smile,
and mine answered
eyes melted into eyes
lips matched lips
hands found one another
while we shared that crucial point in time,
I noticed an old couple sitting by the fountain;
he was holding her,
and she was smiling like she held the secret to the meaning of life
you glanced their way,
and your arms found their way around my waist,
and then I realized that I already held the secret,
or it held me
So I pointed their way and stated,
"I want that to be us in 60 years."
You smiled crookedly and whispered,
"Why not today?"
and that was the moment I decided that you were it
because even though they said we were too young to know,
too naive to understand;
we did know
we did understand,
and we were in love,

with one eye slanted,
the other straight as
the hair that hangs down to
my broken shoulder blades
as I sway to the music in my head
I'll tell you the truth,
I had a dream once,
I had a future coming on,
I had beliefs once
But then I grew up.
I'm a follower leading blind sheep,
with one hand on the bible,
the other turned up,
one lone finger in the sky
that hangs over us all,
but it divides as we fall,
and we're signing peace treaties
as we head for more bombs
I'll tell you the truth,
I had a dream once,
I had a future that was bright,
I did believe once
But then I met the walls around me.
I'm a liar weaving truths that I'll feed you,
with both lips on the tip of my emotions,
we're singing praises to ourselves in the mirror,
behind our backs we're killing off morality

Your Hollywood makeover self indulgent lectures
cause watery rims,
running mascara,
and thudding temples
You asked me if I understood
and I nodded twice,
once yes,
and once no
You looked past my contradictions,
never explaining the lastest catch phrase
Your words aren't the bait,
they're the trigger
and your audiences are blind folded
in blood red chairs
You hide your sins so well,
I almost thought you an angel
But I peeked
Does it kill you to know I never enjoyed your overdone acting?
I never believed you,
but you believed me
All the tricks you've pulled,
like yarn weaving around you
in a small room,
has trapped you in the middle
of the other side
How's it feel sitting in that chair
without use of your eyes?
The stage smells like rust and bleach
and the seat covers rip and wear
A simple whisper is caught on your
tuned in ears
"Are you watching closely?"

If he steadied his hands to wave goodbye,
I think I'd stomach down my broken words
long enough to breathe this in.
This air is turning solid,
I'm sucking down balloons into titanium lungs,
they are weighing me down, this dropping
feeling is sinking me.
I'm still looking for a velvet skinned being
with fire for hands, gloriously failing to create a spark.
My bonfire heart got rained out and I never reached the final inning.
This is where I call is quits, you're the one I want,
and if I can't have you, I'll lie to my heart.

The dying of the fairies.We have been dying for some time. Some say it is the children, that they do not believe. They say they have forgotten childhood, that they have forgotten how to play in the streets with scrapes on their knees, like we did and do, still. Others blame the clouds of poison that roll across the earth, carried by dark winds across the country. Some blame the metal of the modern world, the iron that is everywhere you turn these days. There is even iron in the air, and we breathe death with each lungful of it. The flying ones among us say the skies are turning gray.

Now, now, my fire-bright gem, do not let them get so deep in mind
That your tears will combine with mine and extinguish your flames,

So my whispers will once again echo in your ears, oh, so happily...
Oh, for as long as life still flickers in this body made of flesh and bone,

5 out of 5 stars Facelift
Magnificent Facelift - Fairfax, VA
5 out of 5 stars Butt Lift
Simply the Best. - Fairfax, VA
Dr. Centeno is who you want to go to if you've ever been overweight and/or have lost a bunch of weight as did I. He truly understands body contouring, especially after weight loss. Prior to my autologous flap buttock augmentation, breast lift, liposuction, and scar revision with Dr. Centeno I had a tummy tuck and gynecomastia through another Dr successfully...switching Dr was a very big risk for me, but Dr C quickly made me feel comfortable and was easy to trust. He is simply an artist of the body and I was super pleased with my results. One of the nicest, easy-going plastic surgeons out there.
5 out of 5 stars
Very Pleased W/ TT and Lipo Results - Fairfax, VA
Dr. Centeno is absolutely wonderful! During the initial consultation, he explained the entire procedure and what to expect following. I found him to be very professional but also very personable and comforting (GREAT bed side manner). The staff at Bitar are also very accommodating. I've had a few personal hiccups during recovery and Dr. Centeno and his staff were able to address all of my concerns almost immediately.
5 out of 5 stars
The after care was amazing - Great Experience - Fairfax, VA
I chose Dr. Centeno because I saw some of his work and had spoke to some of his patiences about their experience. I had a great experience with Dr. Centeno. I was very nervous about the procedure and he helped to relax me and set my mind at ease. He was very informative about the procedure so that I would know what exactly he was going to do. The after care was amazing. The doctor and his staff were very attentive and caring. Since the surgery I have started to go to him for fillers. I refer anyone interested in plastic surgery or fillers to him. I wouldn't trust anyone else.
Love My New Neck! - Fairfax, VA
Thank You, Thank You, Thank You! I just wanted to say how great my experience with Dr. Centeno was. The office experience was also fantastic. He is a very talented surgeon with a warm heart !

Refreshed Looking Face - Fairfax, VA
I heard about Dr. Centeno from my sister-in-law. I am so pleased with my results! I totally trust Dr. Centeno and wouldn't put my self in the hands of any other Dr. I'm so happy I heard about Dr. Centeno. He addressed my issues, eased my concerns so I went into surgery feeling at ease. I refer my family and friends to him.
5 out of 5 stars
Slight Nipple Reduction - Fairfax, VA
DR Centeno works out of Bitar cosmetic surgery institute. I must say, I really lucked out. Not only was the staff super friendly and kind, he himself was a gem. His work was perfect and had great bed side manners to go along with his keen eye in creating symmetry and scarless work. Bitar is super clean and is equipped with a staff that can make anyone feel as if there family the moment one walks through the doors. When the procedure was over, Dr Centeno answered all of my questions and concerns and I was on my way. (Note to all: This procedure was at least 60% more expensive then in NY and NJ. I advise no one to get it in the tri state area)

Third party DRM: SteamThis game requires a free Steam account to play.
SAW centers on Detective David Tapp who awakens in a decrepit, abandoned asylum. He has been captured by his longtime nemesis, Jigsaw. Obsessed with catching this serial killer, Tapp's mission has consumed him and ruined his family, resulting in divorce, mental imbalance, and abandonment. Worse yet, this frantic hunt destroyed Tapp's career while he watched his long-time friend and partner get killed by one of Jigsaw's traps. Now Jigsaw has the upper hand and has captured the detective. Tapp must play a deadly game—the likes of which he has been investigating for years—to escape, and in order to do so he must survive the lethal traps and puzzles that Jigsaw has put in place for him and others. But each victim has a dark connection to Tapp. Will Tapp save them? Can he survive his obsession to find the Jigsaw killer?
Key Features:
Traps of Lethal Cunning
Jigsaw has laid out a gauntlet of torturous traps for a handful of innocents. Only you stand between them and the most brutal death imaginable. Think quickly and act! The clock is ticking.
Choices of conscience
The player is forced to make difficult moral choices. Who lives and who dies in the game is determined by the player's choices.
Mysteries Revealed
Unanswered questions from the films are finally laid to rest. Gamers will discover the origin of Jigsaw and why he devoted his life to games, while also finding out what happened to the characters from the first SAW movie.
Ecology of Terror
The asylum in which Jigsaw has trapped you is abandoned, but it is far from empty. It is a living world of horror populated by Jigsaw's minions and the insane souls they torture… and they have no intention of letting you leave.
Customer reviews
Nice licensed titleShaide | Feb. 14, 2015 | See all Shaide's reviews »
Normally, I am not a huge fan of licensed games. In fact the licensed games that I enjoyed, I can count on my fingers. This is one of those games.
The game follows directly after the events of the first movie, and you take on the role of Detective Tapp(Who was played by Danny Glover in the movie, but looks nothing like Glover in the game) as he tries to make his way out of an old asylum while being hunted by others who need him for THEIR escape.
The game is a very dark survival horror game chock full of fiendish puzzles, and references for SAW fans to take delight in. It reminds me a little of Evil Within, except much more enjoyable in my opinion..Also much more realistic(At least as much realistic as a survival horror game can be).
Graphics, while only slightly date are still pretty snazzy, and the audio and voicework even gets passing marks. I was extremely impressed with this game, and while I wouldn't label it as best survival horror game ever, I would label it as a must own for any gamer with darker tastes.
The game does have at least one noticeable glitch though! While squeezing through holes, sometimes you end up squeezing through to the exact same side you squeezed out of. While this can be confusing, especially the first time it happens, it isn't game breaking.

Four Simple Steps To Protect Your Personal Brand
Version 8 and above required to view videos
Uploaded by on Oct 7, 2013
The following is a cross post video from my tech site MichaelGannotti.com. What we say and do online shapes our personal brand, there is no getting around it. Sometimes even a simple mistake can lead to mistrust, and a negative branding even if undeserved. As Catholics engaging in the New Evangelization we must realize that there are those just looking for "evidence" of perceived hypocrisy to jump and attack. While we should not become overly fearful, nor should we overly sanitize our social dialogue (our own Pope Francis is a great example of being authentic and genuine in his comments....and I love it! but more on that later) we should take common sense steps. The following, while no means exhaustive, are four simple steps that everyone can employ to help protect their personal brand. God bless! Full post at http://catholicfamilyman.com

'Nine families are waiting for payout, condemned to a life of penury'
Twenty years after the demolition of 11 houses at Kuthethar during the construction of Mangalore Refinery Petroleum Limited (MRPL), nine families are still waiting for compensation and are forced to live a life of penury, said Ashok Bhat in his appeal to State Human Rights Commission member C.G. Hungund on Friday.
Mr. Bhat, who came along with a few displaced members, said though the families possessed title deeds, and secured even loans from the Karnataka Housing Board (KHB) for the sites, MRPL had deemed them encroachers and denied compensation for most of them.
Right To Information documents obtained from the Tahsildar's office and Bala Grama Panchayat show that the families had been allotted the land by the government before the demolitions had begun, he said.
Thimmu (75) said she now lives in a thatched-roof house on someone else's property. Similarly, Chitrakshi, whose father Appi died of cancer soon after the displacement, said she and her four younger sisters have since struggled "without the safety of a permanent house".
Mr. Hungund said he would look into the legality of the matter and ask the government to take a suitable action.
Presenting his case to the SHRC member at the public hearing, T.R. Nagaraj, who has been employed in Mangalore Electricity Supply Company Limited (Mescom) for 13 years, said he had not yet been made a permanent employee.
Having joined Mescom in 1998 as a gangman, Mr. Nagaraj suffered severe spinal cord injury in 2006 when a compound wall collapsed on him when he was on duty. Recuperation took two years, and even now his legs are partially paralysed. Struggling to walk even with a walker, he told Mr. Hungund that in 2008 he returned to work as a desk clerk. "I'm still in probation, which means while those in my position earn Rs. 8,000 as basic salary, I get Rs. 3,390 in hand," he said.
Mr. Hungund said would inquire with Mescom to take up the matter on humanitarian grounds.
SHRC gets most complaints against the police department, Mr. Hungund said before heading for the meeting, and incidentally Krishna Prasad (43), a farmer from Vittla, alleged illegal detention by the police by booking him under non-bailable sections. In June 2012, he and neighbour fought over property. Mr. Prasad said he suffered injuries, and when he went to lodge a complaint the next day, he was arrested. "The police told me the neighbour had filed a complaint during the night. Instead of filing it under IPC 326, which is bailable, they filed it under IPC 324 which is non-bailable. I spent three days in jail," he said.
Meanwhile, Mataddi, from the Koragara Zilla Samiti approached Mr. Hungund about the delay in investigation even after a case of attempted rape of a Koraga girl in Madapadi, Sullia was lodged on October 10.

The Gods of Guilt
Defense attorney Mickey Haller gets the text, "Call me ASAP - 187," and the California penal code for murder immediately gets his attention. Murder cases have the highest stakes and the biggest paydays, and they always mean Haller has to be at the top of his game. When Mickey learns that the victim was his own former client, a prostitute he thought he had rescued and put on the straight and narrow path, he knows he is on the hook for this one. He soon finds out that she was back in LA and back in the life. Far from saving her, Mickey may have been the one who put her in danger. Haunted by the ghosts of his past, Mickey must work tirelessly and bring all his skill to bear on a case that could mean his ultimate redemption or proof of his ultimate guilt.
