Thread: Plane crash-Or was it?
Plane crash-Or was it?
DORR TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) - A little confusion sent fire and
rescue vehicles into an Allegan County neighborhood after a report
of a single-engine plane crash.
In reality, it was a crashed model plane.
Fifteen-year-old Dan Buck was flying his radio-controlled model
airplane when it broke apart and crashed on Friday. But at least
one caller thought the plane was real - and dialed 911 for help.
Allegan County emergency dispatch received a call just before 5
p.m., alerting them to an orange plane that had just fallen from
the sky.
"It came across that the caller stated they saw ... the wing
fall off," Dorr Assistant Fire Chief Norm Fifelski told The Grand
Rapids Press. "That's when I became alarmed."
Buck and his mother, Barbara Buck, said once rescuers realized
the downed plane had a 7-foot wingspan, they "were kind of
"They said, `Oh, that would be an awfully small pilot,"'
Barbara Buck said.
Friday's failed flight was the maiden voyage of a recently
completed plane. It fell apart because of maneuvers Dan was
attempting - what he calls the "snap rudder roll," loosely
resembling a barrel roll.

There was a similar posting a few weeks ago on here about this situation.
I have been interested in trying to get my own model airplane and many of them are 1/6 the size of a real plane. Many of them are almost 6 feet long and about 7 or 8 feet long.

Canal House Roasted Tomatoes Studded with Garlic on Pasta -- Brilliant!
- 4 Comments
- Follow
I finally purchased Volume 1 of Canal House Cooking. I had been meaning to since at least last fall.
Oh, how I wish I hadn't wasted so much time.
I can't remember the last time I was this delighted with a book of recipes. Christopher Hirsheimer and Melissa Hamilton's cooking journal beautifully captures their passion and excitement for food.
Their enthusiasm is infectious.
Canal House Cooking is the epitome of what I dream of producing and living -- yes, I am filled with envy (and admiration)! This little journal is gorgeously produced. The photography is dreamy, the writing inspiring, the spirit fun, and the recipes are realistic.
These women speak the romance of food and drink -- Let's make a Pimm's Cup and pickle some watermelon rind! Let's invite a crowd and make paella over an open fire!
I'm in love with them and the life they have created.
Each issue is seasonal and embodies the wonder of its particular time of year.
Hooray for tomatoes! It's summertime!
Even though I was overly optimistic about the ripeness and heft of the tomatoes from our garden, the Canal House roasted tomatoes, studded with garlic served over spaghetti turned out marvelously.
This recipe is actually an adaptation of a Paul Bertolli (the genius behind Fra' Mani salumi, also of Chez Panisse and Oliveto fame) recipe. I love that I had every single ingredient on hand. Of course riper, more luscious tomatoes than those I plucked from the garden, would have made this already stellar dish, sublime.
The idea is that everyone gets their own garlicky, juicy tomato to squash over a nest of pasta -- essentially creating your own personal tomato sauce.
Fun eating, this is!
I'm particularly fond of the use of anchovies, pancetta, and breadcrumbs in this recipe. I always forget it, but I love toasty breadcrumbs with pasta. There is something about the crisp crunch against the slippery noodles that is immensely satisfying.
And when the breadcrumbs are cooked until golden in olive oil, the grease from cooked pancetta, and anchovies that have been melted down? Heaven.
It may seem insane to turn on the oven in the middle of summer, but it is only for an hour or so. And it is worth it. The tomatoes studded with garlic roast in the oven under a scattering of breadcrumbs and pancetta and a sprinkling of chopped fresh herbs.
The juices accumulate in the bottom of the pan with the extra crumbs during the roasting, just waiting to be tossed with the spaghetti. Just be sure to use juicy tomatoes for ultimate sauciness!

What a great description of this dish! I've dug out the book and the photo looks amazing too. Definitely on my dinner plans for this week, and the recipe on the next page, Stephen's Summer Spaghetti looks a must-do too.
re: JaneEYB
Thank you!
I made the stuffed tomatoes with rice in the same section. Also very delicious. Not mind-blowing, but solid and tasty and easy. A very nice side. I recommend giving it a try too.
Now I'm even more eagerly awaiting tomatoes from my garden, so I can try this. Thanks.

I made this last night and it was awesome! We have some sweet, juicy, softball sized tomatoes with very little seed coming in right now that were perfect for this. It was the mega sized version of the roasted Principe Borghese tomatoes that I put up for winter but with the oh so yummy addition of anchovies and breadcrumbs. I used store bought pasta last night but I think this will be over the top with my home made pasta next time. Thanks so much for the link!

Deal web site Groupon revolutionized how people save money and find new local businesses to try. I've used these vouchers on frozen yogurt, pet supplies, and even a horseback ride. Although people go to Groupon to get more for their money, a new initiative called Groupon Grassroots is getting deal buyers to donate money to a good cause. One of the latest Grassroots deals raised money to buy Pirelli, a 7-month old Golden Retriever/Labrador mix, a set of prosthetic boots [4]. The poor pup was born without a back left paw and will continue to need new boots as he grows. Eventually the goal is to give Pirelli a surgically implanted prosthesis. Users were given the opportunity to donate $10 to Pirelli and Canine Assistants [5] with donation matching. Over 340 deals were purchased, raising over $7,000. Pirelli is training to be the spokesdog for Canine Assistants, which trains and places service dogs. Pirelli will visit schools and teach children about disabilities. I'm always inspired by the enthusiasm animals have, living life to the fullest no matter what comes their way. Pirelli will surely have a positive impact on every kid he meets. |

FOR PUBLICATION UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT CHANTELL SACKETT; MICHAEL SACKETT, Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY; STEVEN L. JOHNSON, Administrator, Defendants-Appellees. No. 08-35854 D.C. No. 2:08-cv-00185-EJL OPINION Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Idaho Edward J. Lodge, District Judge, Presiding Argued and Submitted December 9, 2009 Submission Withdrawn December 23, 2009 Resubmitted August 18, 2010 Seattle, Washington Filed September 17, 2010 Before: Robert R. Beezer, Ronald M. Gould and Richard C. Tallman, Circuit Judges. Opinion by Judge Gould 14335 14338 SACKETT v. USEPA COUNSEL Leslie R. Weatherhead, Witherspoon Kelley Davenport & Toole, Spokane, Washington; M. Reed Hopper, Damien M. Schiff (argued), Pacific Legal Foundation, Sacramento, California, for the plaintiffs-appellants. Ankur K. Tohan, United States Environmental Protection Agency, Seattle, Washington; Ronald J. Tenpas, Assistant Attorney General; Cynthia J. Morris, Aaron P. Avila, Jennifer Scheller Neumann (argued), United States Department of Justice Environment and Natural Resources Division, Washington, DC, for the defendants-appellees. OPINION GOULD, Circuit Judge: We determine whether federal courts have subject-matter jurisdiction to conduct review of administrative compliance SACKETT v. USEPA 14339 orders issued by the Environmental Protection Agency pursuant to the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C. � 1319(a)(3), before the EPA has filed a lawsuit in federal court to enforce the compliance order. We join our sister circuits and hold that the Clean Water Act precludes pre-enforcement judicial review of administrative compliance orders, and that such preclusion does not violate due process. I Chantell and Michael Sackett ("the Sacketts") own a 0.63acre undeveloped lot in Idaho near Priest Lake ("the Parcel"). In April and May of 2007, the Sacketts filled in about onehalf acre of that property with dirt and rock in preparation for building a house. On November 26, 2007, the EPA issued a compliance order against the Sacketts. The compliance order alleged that the Parcel is a wetland subject to the Clean Water Act ("CWA") and that the Sacketts violated the CWA by filling in their property without first obtaining a permit.1 The compliance order required the Sacketts to remove the fill material and restore the Parcel to its original condition. The compliance order states that "[v]iolation of, or failure to comply with, the foregoing Order may subject Respondents to (1) civil penalties of up to $32,500 per day of violation . . . [or] (2) administrative penalties of up to $11,000 per day for each violation." The Sacketts sought a hearing with the EPA to challenge the finding that the Parcel is subject to the CWA. The EPA did not grant the Sacketts a hearing and continued to assert CWA jurisdiction over the Parcel. The Sacketts then filed this action in the United States District Court for the District of Idaho seeking injunctive and declaratory relief. They chalThe compliance order charged the Sacketts with discharging pollutants into the waters of the United States, absent a permit, in violation of 33 U.S.C. � 1311(a). 1 14340 SACKETT v. USEPA lenged the compliance order as (1) arbitrary and capricious under the Administrative Procedure Act ("APA"), 5 U.S.C. � 706(2)(A); (2) issued without a hearing in violation of the Sacketts' procedural due process rights; and (3) issued on the basis of an "any information available" standard that is unconstitutionally vague. The district court granted the EPA's Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(1) motion to dismiss the Sacketts' claims for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. It concluded that the CWA precludes judicial review of compliance orders before the EPA has started an enforcement action in federal court. The Sacketts filed a Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 59(e) motion for clarification and reconsideration that was also denied. The Sacketts appealed. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. � 1291. II We review de novo the dismissal of a complaint for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction. Mangano v. United States, 529 F.3d 1243, 1245 n.2 (9th Cir. 2008). The EPA has determined that the Sacketts discharged pollutants into the waters of the United States in violation of the CWA. When the EPA identifies a CWA violation, it has three main civil enforcement options.2 First, it can assess an administrative penalty. 33 U.S.C. � 1319(g). When the EPA assesses an administrative penalty, the alleged violator is entitled to "a reasonable opportunity to be heard and to present evidence," the public is entitled to comment, and any assessed penalty is subject to immediate judicial review. 33 U.S.C. � 1319(g)(4), (8). Second, the EPA can initiate a civil enforcement action in federal district court. 33 U.S.C. � 1319(b). Third, the EPA can issue, as it did here, an administrative "compliance order." 33 U.S.C. � 1319(a). 2 Criminal penalties are also available. 33 U.S.C. � 1319(c). SACKETT v. USEPA 14341 A compliance order "is a document served on the violator, setting forth the nature of the violation and specifying a time for compliance with the Act." S. Pines Assocs. by Goldmeier v. United States, 912 F.2d 713, 715 (4th Cir. 1990). The EPA derives its power to issue compliance orders from 33 U.S.C. � 1319(a)(3), which states: Whenever on the basis of any information available to him the Administrator finds that any person is in violation of section 1311, 1312, 1316, 1317, 1318, 1328, or 1345 of this title, . . . he shall issue an order requiring such person to comply with such section or requirement, or he shall bring a civil action in accordance with [33 U.S.C. � 1319(b)]. [1] To enforce a compliance order, the EPA must bring an enforcement action in federal court under 33 U.S.C. � 1319(b). The compliance order issued against the Sacketts exposed them to potential court-imposed civil penalties not to exceed $32,500 "per day for each violation" of the compliance order.3 33 U.S.C. � 1319(d); 40 C.F.R. � 19.4. In assessing the amount of the penalty, courts "shall consider the seriousness of the violation or violations, the economic benefit (if any) resulting from the violation, any history of such violations, any good-faith efforts to comply with the applicable requirements, the economic impact of the penalty on the violator, and such other matters as justice may require." 33 U.S.C. � 1319(d). The Sacketts argue that compliance orders are judicially reviewable prior to the EPA filing an enforcement action in federal court. The CWA, however, does not expressly provide for pre-enforcement judicial review of compliance orders. See 33 U.S.C. � 1319. The Sacketts argue that federal courts are nonetheless authorized to conduct pre-enforcement review of The maximum per-day penalty amount increased to $37,500 effective January 12, 2009. 40 C.F.R. � 19.4. 3 14342 SACKETT v. USEPA compliance orders pursuant to the APA. Under the APA, "[a]gency action made reviewable by statute and final agency action for which there is no other adequate remedy in a court are subject to judicial review." 5 U.S.C. � 704. Agency action is not reviewable under the APA, however, where the relevant statute "preclude[s] judicial review." 5 U.S.C. � 701(a)(1). [2] Whether the CWA precludes pre-enforcement review of compliance orders is an issue of first impression in our circuit. We begin with the presumption favoring judicial review of administrative action. See Abbott Labs. v. Gardner, 387 U.S. 136, 140 (1967), overruled on other grounds by Califano v. Sanders, 430 U.S. 99 (1977). That presumption is overcome, however, "whenever the congressional intent to preclude judicial review is fairly discernible in the statutory scheme." Block v. Cmty. Nutrition Inst., 467 U.S. 340, 351 (1984) (quotation marks omitted). "Whether and to what extent a particular statute precludes judicial review is determined not only from its express language, but also from the structure of the statutory scheme, its objectives, its legislative history, and the nature of the administrative action involved." Id. at 345. The CWA does not expressly preclude preenforcement judicial review of such compliance orders. So we must consider the other factors identified by the Supreme Court to determine whether the CWA impliedly precludes pre-enforcement judicial review. [3] In this assessment, we do not work from a blank slate. Every circuit that has confronted this issue has held that the CWA impliedly precludes judicial review of compliance orders until the EPA brings an enforcement action in federal district court. See, e.g., Laguna Gatuna, Inc. v. Browner, 58 F.3d 564 (10th Cir. 1995); S. Ohio Coal Co. v. Office of Surface Mining, Reclamation & Enforcement, 20 F.3d 1418 (6th Cir. 1994); S. Pines Assocs. by Goldmeier v. United States, 912 F.2d 713 (4th Cir. 1990); Hoffman Group, Inc. v. EPA, 902 F.2d 567 (7th Cir. 1990). Many district courts have also so held. See, e.g., Sharp Land Co. v. United States, 956 F. SACKETT v. USEPA 14343 Supp. 691, 693-94 (M.D. La. 1996); Child v. United States, 851 F. Supp. 1527, 1533 (D. Utah 1994); Bd. of Managers, Bottineau Cnty. Water Res. Dist. v. Bornhoft, 812 F. Supp. 1012, 1014-1015 (D.N.D. 1993); McGown v. United States, 747 F. Supp. 539, 542 (E.D. Mo. 1990); Fiscella & Fiscella v. United States, 717 F. Supp. 1143, 1146-47 (E.D. Va. 1989). The reasoning of these courts is persuasive to us, as well as the broad uniformity of consensus on this issue. [4] First, we look to the structure of the statutory scheme and the nature of the administrative action involved. Here, Congress gave the EPA a choice of "issu[ing] an order requiring such person to comply with such section or requirement, or . . . bring[ing] a civil action [in district court]." 33 U.S.C. � 1319(a)(3) (emphasis added). Authorizing pre-enforcement judicial review of compliance orders would eliminate this choice by enabling those subject to a compliance order to force the EPA to litigate all compliance orders in court. E.g., Hoffman Group, 902 F.2d at 569. Such a result would be discordant with the statutory scheme. [5] Moreover, no sanctions can be imposed, or injunctions issued, for noncompliance with a compliance order until the EPA brings a civil enforcement action in district court. See 33 U.S.C. � 1319(d); Hoffman Group, 902 F.2d at 569. Given that an enforcement action gives an opportunity for judicial consideration of the compliance order, we infer that Congress intended that all challenges to the compliance order be brought in one proceeding. See id.; cf. Middlesex County Sewerage Auth. v. Nat'l Sea Clammers Ass'n, 453 U.S. 1, 14 (1981) ("In the absence of strong indicia of a contrary congressional intent, we are compelled to conclude that Congress provided precisely the remedies it considered appropriate."). [6] In addition, by contrast to how it treated compliance orders, Congress set forth an explicit mechanism for judicial review of administrative penalties assessed by the EPA for CWA violations. See 33 U.S.C. � 1319(g)(8). Congress's 14344 SACKETT v. USEPA express grant of judicial review for administrative penalties helps to persuade us that the absence of a similar grant of judicial review for compliance orders was an intentional omission that must be respected. See S. Ohio Coal Co., 20 F.3d at 1426. [7] Second, we look to the objectives of the statutory scheme. Here, courts have concluded that compliance orders, like pre-enforcement administrative orders in other environmental statutes, are meant to "allow EPA to act to address environmental problems quickly and without becoming immediately entangled in litigation." S. Pines Assocs., 912 F.2d at 716; see also S. Rep. No. 92-414, at 3730 (1972) ("One purpose of these new requirements is to avoid the necessity of lengthy fact finding, investigations, and negotiations at the time of enforcement. Enforcement of violations of requirements under this Act should be based on relatively narrow fact situations requiring a minimum of discretionary decision making or delay."). This goal of enabling swift corrective action would be defeated by permitting immediate judicial review of compliance orders. [8] Third, we consider the legislative history of the CWA. The enforcement provisions of the CWA were modeled on enforcement provisions in the Clean Air Act ("CAA"), and many courts have relied on similar provisions in the CAA in concluding that the CWA precludes pre-enforcement judicial review of compliance orders. Laguna Gatuna, 58 F.3d at 565; S. Pines Assocs., 912 F.2d at 716; see also S. Rep. No. 92414, at 3730. During the enactment of the CAA, the Conference Committee which reconciled the House and Senate versions of the CAA deleted a provision in the Senate's version of the bill that would have expressly provided for preenforcement review of CAA administrative compliance orders. See Lloyd A. Fry Roofing Co. v. EPA, 554 F.2d 885, 890 (8th Cir. 1977). At least one court has inferred from this deletion that it was intended to preclude pre-enforcement judicial review of compliance orders. See id. (citing Gulf Oil SACKETT v. USEPA 14345 Corp. v. Copp Paving Co., 419 U.S. 186, 200 (1974)). Such an inference is not unassailable. See Andrew I. Davis, Judicial Review of Environmental Compliance Orders, 24 Envt'l L. 189, 199 (1994). Nevertheless, and subject to the general caution with which we must view all legislative history not adopted by both houses and enacted as law, that inference is supported by the structure of the CWA and its statutory language discussed above. [9] In view of the above considerations, we hold that a congressional intent to preclude pre-enforcement judicial review of compliance orders is "fairly discernible in the statutory scheme." Block, 467 U.S. at 351. III [10] The Sacketts argue that CWA compliance orders must be judicially reviewable before enforcement because preclusion of pre-enforcement review violates their due process rights. They rely on the Eleventh Circuit's opinion in Tennessee Valley Authority v. Whitman, 336 F.3d 1236 (11th Cir. 2003) [hereinafter TVA], in which that court identified constitutional problems with a similar compliance-order provision in the CAA, see id. at 1260. The Eleventh Circuit concluded that the complete preclusion of judicial review of compliance orders issued under the CAA would raise serious constitutional questions where compliance orders, "if ignored, lead[ ] automatically to the imposition of severe civil penalties and perhaps imprisonment." Id. at 1256. The chief problem with the CAA, as the Eleventh Circuit saw it, was that a compliance order could be issued by the EPA "on the basis of any information available" without any hearing, and that the CAA made civil and criminal penalties dependent on violations of compliance orders whether or not there was an actual violation of the CAA. See id. (citing Davis, supra at 194 ("Regardless of the merits of the alleged violation underlying the compliance order, disregarding the order potentially subjects the recipient to accruing daily penalties.")). 14346 SACKETT v. USEPA [11] If the CWA is read in the literal manner the Sacketts suggest, it could indeed create a due process problem. Like the CAA, the CWA permits the EPA to issue compliance orders "on the basis of any information available," 33 U.S.C. � 1319(a)(3), which presumably includes "a staff report, newspaper clipping, anonymous phone tip, or anything else that would constitute `any information,' " TVA, 336 F.3d at 1241 (observing that "[t]he standard is less rigorous than the probable cause standard"). And according to the plain text of the enforcement provision, "any person who violates any order issued by the Administrator under [33 U.S.C. � 1319(a)], shall be subject to a civil penalty . . . for each violation." 33 U.S.C. � 1319(d). Thus, the Sacketts' reading of the CWA suggests that they risk substantial financial penalties for violating the compliance order, even if they did not violate the CWA, if the EPA establishes in an enforcement proceeding that the compliance order was validly issued based on "any information available." See TVA, 336 F.3d at 1259 (concluding that "[t]he district courts serve as forums for the EPA to conduct show-cause hearings"). [12] We decline to interpret the CWA in this manner. The civil penalty provision of the CWA is "not a model of clarity." Atl. States Legal Found., Inc. v. Tyson Foods, Inc., 897 F.2d 1128, 1137 (11th Cir. 1990). Although the term "any order" in 33 U.S.C. � 1319(d) could be interpreted to refer to all compliance orders issued on the basis of "any information available," the term could also be interpreted to refer only to those compliance orders that are predicated on actual, not alleged, violations of the CWA, as found by a district court in an enforcement action according to traditional civil evidence rules and burdens of proof. [13] Mindful of the Supreme Court's repeated instruction that "every reasonable construction must be resorted to, in order to save a statute from unconstitutionality," Edward J. DeBartolo Corp. v. Fla. Gulf Coast Bldg. & Const. Trades Council, 485 U.S. 568, 575 (1988) (quoting Hooper v. Cali- SACKETT v. USEPA 14347 fornia, 155 U.S. 648, 657 (1895)), we believe that the latter interpretation is the better interpretation of "any order" in � 1319(d). The EPA is authorized only "to commence a civil action for appropriate relief, including a permanent or temporary injunction, for any violation for which [the EPA] is authorized to issue a compliance order." 33 U.S.C. � 1319(b) (emphasis added). Read carefully, this provision does not authorize the EPA to bring enforcement actions for mere violations of compliance orders. Rather, to enforce a compliance order, the EPA must bring an action alleging a violation of the CWA itself. Given that the CWA does not empower the EPA to bring an enforcement action on the basis of a violation of a compliance order alone, it follows that a court cannot assess penalties for violations of a compliance order under � 1319(d) unless the EPA also proves, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the defendants actually violated the CWA in the manner alleged.4 Under this interpretation, if the EPA does not prove that the CWA was actually violated, the compliance order is unenforceable, even if it was validly issued on the basis of "any information available." We therefore hold that the term "any order" in � 1319(d) refers only to orders predicated on actual violations of the CWA as identified by a district court in an enforcement proceeding according to traditional rules of evidence and standards of proof. The Sacketts further allege that forcing them to wait until the EPA brings an enforcement action "ignores the realities of [their] circumstances," because of the "frightening penalties" they risk accruing by refusing to comply. The increase in penalties from noncompliance with an administrative order not subject to immediate judicial review, however, does not necThis interpretation of the term "any order" is in accord with other circuits' readings of the CWA. See, e.g., Hoffman Group, 902 F.2d at 569 ("Hoffman cannot be compelled to comply with the Compliance Order without an opportunity to challenge the Order's validity in court."); S. Pines Assocs., 912 F.2d at 717 ("Southern Pines and Vico can contest the existence of EPA's jurisdiction if and when EPA seeks to enforce the penalties provided by the Act."). 4 14348 SACKETT v. USEPA essarily constitute a due process violation. See Thunder Basin Coal Co. v. Reich, 510 U.S. 200, 218 (1994) ("Although the [Mine] Act's civil penalties unquestionably may become onerous if petitioner chooses not to comply, the Secretary's penalty assessments become final and payable only after full review by both the Commission and the appropriate court of appeals."). Rather, statutory preclusion of pre-enforcement judicial review of administrative orders violates due process only when the "practical effect of coercive penalties for noncompliance [is] to foreclose all access to the courts" so that "compliance is sufficiently onerous and coercive penalties sufficiently potent that a constitutionally intolerable choice might be presented." Id. [14] We are not persuaded that the potential consequences from violating CWA compliance orders are so onerous so as to "foreclose all access to the courts" and create a "constitutionally intolerable choice." We reach this conclusion for two reasons. First, the CWA has a permitting provision. See 33 U.S.C. � 1344(a). The Sacketts could seek a permit to fill their property and build a house, the denial of which would be immediately appealable to a district court under the APA. See 33 C.F.R � 331.10; 5 U.S.C. � 704. If the Sacketts were denied a permit and then took an appeal, they could challenge whether their property is subject to the jurisdiction of the CWA. See id.; Baccarat Fremont Devs., LLC v. U.S. Army Corps of Eng'rs, 425 F.3d 1150, 1154 (9th Cir. 2005) (concluding that the Army Corps had jurisdiction over the plaintiff's property under the CWA). Therefore, rather than completely foreclosing the Sacketts' ability to use their property or challenge CWA jurisdiction, the CWA channels judicial review through the affirmative permitting process. See Shalala v. Ill. Council on Long Term Care, Inc., 529 U.S. 1, 19 (2000) (noting the distinction "this Court has often drawn between a total preclusion of review and postponement of review" and highlighting similar "channeling requirement[s]"); United States v. Dunifer, 219 F.3d 1004, 1008 (9th Cir. 2000) ("[I]t is important to note that this is not a case in SACKETT v. USEPA 14349 which Dunifer had no means to obtain judicial review of the regulations. Dunifer could have applied for a license and sought a waiver of the applicable FCC rules . . . ." (citing Thunder Basin, 510 U.S. at 212-13)). [15] Second, the civil penalties provision is committed to judicial, not agency, discretion. See 33 U.S.C. � 1319(d). The amount of the penalty for noncompliance with a CWA compliance order is to be determined by a court and is determined on the basis of six factors: (1) the seriousness of the violation, (2) the economic benefit resulting from the violation, (3) any history of CWA violations, (4) good-faith efforts to comply, (5) the economic impact of the penalty on the violator, and (6) such other matters as justice may require. Id. Any penalty ultimately assessed against the Sacketts would therefore reflect a discretionary, judicially determined penalty, taking into account a wide range of case-specific equitable factors, and imposed only after the Sacketts have had a full and fair opportunity to present their case in a judicial forum. [16] We therefore hold that precluding pre-enforcement judicial review of CWA compliance orders does not violate due process. IV In conclusion, we hold that it is "fairly discernable" from the language and structure of the Clean Water Act that Congress intended to preclude pre-enforcement judicial review of administrative compliance orders issued by the EPA pursuant to 33 U.S.C. � 1319(a)(3). We further interpret the CWA to require that penalties for noncompliance with a compliance order be assessed only after the EPA proves, in district court, and according to traditional rules of evidence and burdens of proof, that the defendants violated the CWA in the manner alleged in the compliance order. Thus we do not see any sharp disconnect between the process given a citizen and the likely penalty that can be imposed under the CWA. Under these cir- 14350 SACKETT v. USEPA cumstances, preclusion of pre-enforcement judicial review does not violate the Sacketts' due process rights. The district court properly dismissed this case for lack of subject-matter jurisdiction.5 AFFIRMED. Given this conclusion, we need not and do not reach the claims of due process violations based on the failure to provide notice and a hearing before an impartial tribunal or the contention that the CWA compliance order provision is impermissibly vague. 5

Notification of Data Security BreachesPaul M. SchwartzUniversity of California, Berkeley - School of Law Edward J. JangerBrooklyn Law School Michigan Law Review, Vol. 105, p. 913, 2007 Brooklyn Law School, Legal Studies Paper No. 58 Abstract: The law increasingly mandates that private companies disclose information for the benefit of consumers. The latest example of such regulation through disclosure is a requirement that companies notify individuals of data security incidents involving their personal information. In the wake of highly publicized data spills, numerous states have now enacted such legislation, and federal legislation in this area has also been proposed. These statutes seek to punish the breached entity and protect consumers by requiring that a breached entity disclose information about the data spill. There are competing possible approaches, however, to how the law is to mandate release of information about data leaks. This Article finds that a reputational sanction from breach notification can be important, but not for the reasons conventionally discussed. Moreover, a further function of breach notification is mitigation of harm after a data leak. This function requires a multi-institutional coordinated response of the kind that is absent from current policy proposals. To fill this gap, this Article advocates creation of a coordinated response architecture and develops the elements of such an approach.

Born: 9-Dec-1742Birthplace: Stralsund, Pomerania, GermanyDied: 21-May-1786Location of death: Köping, SwedenCause of death: unspecified
Gender: MaleRace or Ethnicity: WhiteOccupation: Chemist
Nationality: SwedenExecutive summary: Discovered oxygen, chlorine, manganese
Swedish chemist, born at Stralsund, the capital of Pomerania, which then belonged to Sweden, on the 9th of December 1742. He was apprenticed at the age of fourteen to an apothecary in Gothenburg, with whom he stayed for eight years. His spare time and great part of his nights were devoted to the experimental examination of the different bodies which he dealt with, and the study of the standard works on chemistry. He thus acquired a large store of knowledge and great practical skill and manipulative dexterity. In 1765 he removed to Malmö, and in 1768 to Stockholm. While there he wrote an account of his experiments with cream of tartar, from which he had isolated tartaric acid, and sent it to T. 0. Bergman, the leading chemist in Sweden. Bergman somehow neglected it, and this caused for a time a reluctance on Scheele's part to become acquainted with that savant, but the paper, through the instrumentality of Anders Johann Retzius (1742-1821), was ultimately communicated to the Academy of Sciences at Stockholm.
Scheele left Stockholm in 1770 and took up his residence at Uppsala, where through the agency of Johann Gottlieb Gahn (1745-1818), assessor of mines at Fahlun, he made the personal acquaintance of Bergman. A friendship, of mutual advantage, soon sprang up between the two men, and it has been said that Scheele was Bergman's greatest discovery. In 1775, the year in which he was elected into the Stockholm Academy of Sciences, he left Stockholm for Köping, a small place on Lake Malar, where he became provisor and subsequently proprietor of a pharmacy. The business, however, was not what he had been led to expect, and it took him several years to put it on a sound footing. Yet in spite of his business cares he found time for an extraordinary amount of original research, and every year he published two or three papers, most of which contained some discovery or observation of importance. His unremitting work, it is said, especially at night, exposing him to cold and draughts, induced a rheumatic attack which brought about his death. He had intended, as soon as his circumstances permitted him, to marry the widow of his predecessor, but his illness increased so rapidly that it was only on his deathbed, on the 19th of May 1786, that he carried out his design. Two days later he died, leaving his wife what property he had acquired.
Scheele's power as an experimental investigator has seldom if ever been surpassed, and his accuracy is most remarkable when his primitive apparatus, his want of assistance, his place of residence, and the undeveloped state of chemical and physical science in his time, are all taken into account. Research was at once his occupation and his relaxation, and his natural endowments were cultivated by unceasing practice and unwearied attention. Study of his original papers shows that his discoveries were not made haphazardly, but were the outcome of experiments carefully planned to verify inferences already drawn, and successfully designed to settle the point at issue in the simplest and most direct manner. He left nothing in doubt if experiment would decide it, and he evidently did not consider that he had fully investigated any compound until he could both unmake and remake it. His record as a discoverer of new substances is probably unequalled. The analysis of manganese dioxide in 1774 led him to the discovery of chlorine and baryta; to the description of various salts of manganese itself, including the manganates and permanganates, and to the explanation of its action in coloring and decolorizing glass. In 1775 he investigated arsenic acid and its reactions, discovering arseniuretted hydrogen and "Scheele's green" (copper arsenite), a process for preparing which on a large scale he published in 1778. Papers published in 1776 were concerned with quartz, alum and clay and with the analysis of calculus vesicae from which for the first time he obtained uric acid. In 1778 he proposed a new method of making calomel and powder of algaroth, and he got molybdic acid from mineral molybdaena nitens which he carefully distinguished from ordinary molybdena (plumbago or black lead of commerce). In the following year he showed that plumbago consists essentially of carbon, and he published a record of estimations of the proportions of oxygen in the atmosphere, which he had carried on daily during the whole of 1778 -- three years before Henry Cavendish. In 1780 he proved that the acidity of sour milk is due to what was afterwards called lactic acid; and by boiling milk sugar with nitric acid he obtained mucic acid. His next discovery, in 1781, was the composition of the mineral tungsten, since called scheelite (calcium tungstate), from which he obtained tungstic acid. In 1782 he published some experiments on the formation of ether, and in 1783 examined the properties of glycerine, which he had discovered seven years before. About the same time he showed by a wonderful series of experiments that the coloring matter of Prussian blue could not be produced without the presence of a substance of the nature of an acid, to which the name of prussic acid was ultimately given; and he described the composition, properties and compounds of this body, and even ascertained its smell and taste, quite unaware of its poisonous character.
In the last years of his life Scheele returned to the vegetable acids, and investigated citric, malic, oxalic and gallic acids. His only book, on Air and Fire, was published in 1777, but was written some years before. The manuscript was in the hands of the printers in 1775, and most of the experimental work for it was done before 1773. Although it starts from the erroneous basis of the phlogistic theory, it contains much matter of permanent value. One of the chief observations recorded in it is that the atmosphere is composed of two gases -- one which supports combustion and the other which prevents it. The former, "fire-air", or oxygen, he prepared from "acid of nitre", from saltpetre, from black oxide of manganese, from oxide of mercury and other substances, and there is little doubt but that he obtained it independently a considerable time before Joseph Priestley. Incidentally in 1777 Scheele prepared sulphuretted hydrogen, and noted the chemical action of light on silver compounds and other substances.

David Winzenz, Professor, Department of Psychology, Ph.D. Stanford University
I joined GST early in my teaching career and have stayed in the program because it fosters very exciting teaching and learning. The students are great, the curriculum is enormously rich and the other teachers are wonderful to work with. I do the social studies and am able to weave psychology, from brain anatomy to Freud, into a fascinating year-long course using case studies of intriguing pathologies of the mind.
Tricia Sweet, Lecturer, M.A.in English, California State Univesity Chico, Ph. D Program in English, UC Davis.
When John Keats, son of a groom, got hold of a good English translation of Homer's epics by George Chapman, he wrote a poem about the thrill of discovering world-changing literature:
On First Looking into Chapman's Homer
Much have I traveled in the realms of gold, And many goodly states and kingdoms seen; Round many western islands have I been Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold. Oft of one wide expanse had I been told That deep-browed Homer ruled as his demesne; Yet did I never breathe its pure serene Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold: Then felt I like some watcher of the skies When a new planet swims into his ken; Or like stout Cortez when with eagle eyes He stared at the Pacific -- and all his men Looked at each other with a wild surmise -- Silent, upon a peak in Darien.
Kirk Monfort, Professor, Department of Philosophy, Ph.D Stanford University
"This was great! I wish I had had a freshman year like this," I said to myself after my first year teaching in GST. Thirty years, nine hundred students, and a dozen different faculty colleagues later, I still think the same thing. As the GST historian I am very interested in your exploring with me the question of how we came to live the way we do with the attitudes and aspirations we have here at the beginning of the third millennium. As the philosophy teacher I want to prompt you to undertake a life-long examination of your own life, attitudes and aspirations and see if Socrates was correct in claiming that only examined lives are worth living. Note that none of the great spiritual traditions, which are thought to have something important to say about human happiness, have suggested that it is to be found "getting and spending."
Robert Herhusky, Assistant Professor, Department of Art, MFA California College of Arts and Crafts.
I joined the GST faculty ten years ago. The GST art studio offers a tremendous opportunity to work in a variety of media with students from diverse and varied backgrounds. We try to gear the studio material to whatever historical era we are currently covering. My colleagues offer tremendous help and latitude toward making the art material integrate with their course material.
My background and interest is in studio art. I am moved by the heartfelt belief that we can make extraordinary things even if we don't have the talents of Michaelangelo, Rembrandt, and Carravaggio. We'll try drawing, painting, sculpture, woodworking, whatever it takes to exercise the creative muscles that are often quite atrophied in college freshmen.
Lynda Klein, Lecturer, Department of Physics, M.S. University of Cincinnati
I have two ways of describing science component of GST. Here is the SHORT version:
Confucius would probably have enjoyed the GST science program, which is modeled after his core teaching philosophy: "Tell me, I forget; show me, I remember; involve me, I understand."
Here is the LONG version:
Some of the science activities that GST students participate in while learning astronomy and physics are:

[25 January 2008]
Most shocking news of the week:
Thirty five million Mills & Boon titles are sold each year worldwide. Think we have a stiff upper lip? Seven million romantic novels are sold in the UK alone ... which translates into a Mills & Boon book being put through our tills every three seconds.
Wow. That's insane. Find out more strange facts about the Mills & Boon publishing extravaganza over at the Times Online. Their "Eight facts about Mills & Boon books" is scary. Apparently, over a thousand people write Mills & Boon books. And over a million people buy the 70+ books published every month. I had no idea the demand was so monumental. I knew the books were a bit of a publishing force (only because they crowd the shelves of used bookstores, so someone's buying them), but this is just way out of control. I may look into this further…
The Times also has a great video interview with Stephen King about Duma Key. Check that out here. Didn't King retire? He and Garth Brooks are giving real retirees a bad name.
Buzzy, Busy Bees by Leia Martin.
This one's for Leia, my favourite environmentalist / photographer. From the article, "Plant a Tree Every Time You Buy a Book" from enviro-blog, Triple Pundit:
It is a sad shame that the majority of publishers today do not print their books on recycled paper. There is no logical reason why books should be printed on virgin paper that equals 20 million trees each year. I highly encourage publishers, online booksellers, and retail stores to reconsider the environmental impact of printing books on virgin paper and partner with Ecolibris.
And the big news… the Judith Regan lawsuit is settled. AP reports: "The war is over: Judith Regan, the publisher fired in the wake of her efforts to release O.J. Simpson's hypothetical "confession," has settled her $100 million lawsuit with Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation." Find out more here. The bottom line? No-one is guilty of anything at all. How ironic.

Aug 4th, 2012My name is Rick Corbett. I am a graphite and colored pencil portrait artist. I am a self-taught artist. I am also a member of the Woburn Guild of Artists. I am inspired not only by other artists but from life itself. I am inspired by people, textures, smells, sounds, all my senses seem to come alive when I draw. My drawings take me on an artistic journey of self discovery. I feel my soul awaken when I draw. GOD has given me a gift and it's a gift I hope to use to bring people closer together. It's a gift I hope to use to capture the beauty that's in this World. I don't want my drawings to simply be pictures drawn on pieces of paper - I want my drawings to be a celebration of life. My portraits are like my children. I created them and I'm proud of them. I hope to change the way people "see" each other. Everyone is special in their own special way. People trul inspire me. I love to learn about people, I love to learn backgrounds, traditions, and cultures. I think this is why I became a portrait artist, it just seemed natural to me. I believe that every person is beautiful and I hope to bring out that beauty in each portrait I draw. I hope to bring out the person's soul. I thank GOD everyday for the gift HE has given me. It's a gift that I hope to use to bring people closer together. It's one I hope to bring everyone's inner beauty out. It's one that I hope to make us all learn something about ourselves. It's a gift I hope that will bring a smile to someone's face or bring joy in someone's life.

Mar 31st, 2010Lowbrow is a widespread populist art movement with origins in the underground comix world, punk music, hot-rod street culture, and other subcultures. Lowbrow art often has a sense of humor - sometimes the humor is gleeful, sometimes impish, and sometimes it is a sarcastic comment. The single most common tactic that Lowbrow artists employ is to poke fun at convention. They know the "rules" of art, and consciously choose not to abide by them. If the test of time for legitimacy (as an artistic movement) means that Lowbrow speaks/spoke, in visual terms, to the millions of us who share a common cultural, symbolic language - albeit a "lower" or "middle" class, media-driven language - then, yes, Lowbrow is here to stay. Anthropologists will probably study Lowbrow in the future, to attempt to figure out late 20th and early 21st century U.S. societal influences.

Spyware and adware rage on
Enterprises are still feeling the pain of adware and spyware, but much of it appears to be self-inflicted.
It may not shock anyone that spyware infections are commonplace. However, just how rampant those infections are -- and their effects -- may show that their impact up to this point has been underestimated.

More than 84% of almost 2,000 frequent Internet users surveyed by the Ponemon Institute stated that their computer is infected with spyware or has been at some point in the recent past. More than 87% said it had resulted in productivity losses. Another 34% stated that they could not use previously
About 15% of spyware victims reported that they experienced monetary damages resulting from having spyware on their computer. The average loss is estimated at $49.7 incurred over the past 12 months. While this average amount is small, extrapolation to the national population of Internet users would likely result in costs of hundreds of millions of dollars. About 26% of respondents said they purchased antispyware or antivirus software as a result of spyware infections. Another 14% said they hired a computer pro to fix their desktop or laptop. The remaining cost components include complete computer replacements, and the purchase of additional security services from ISP or DSL providers.
The National Spyware Study, released today, was sponsored by Unisys Corp.'s Security Leadership Institute. Privacy advocates, ad software technologists and other experts contributed to the design of the study. Respondents consisted of 1,944 U.S. adults that self-reported spending one or more hours each day on the Internet.
Many respondents didn't have a clear understanding of the differences between adware and spyware. Almost half failed to identify this statement as correct: Both spyware and adware assist in gathering information ... and send it to other interested parties. Adware is downloaded in exchange for free software or other offers. Spyware is downloaded without your consent or awareness.
Where does it come from?
Of individuals reporting that their computers had spyware, about 97% don't recall seeing an end user licensing agreement [EULA] prior to downloading free software that likely caused the spyware infection. And 42% don't understand how adware or spyware was downloaded or unleashed on their computer.
Despite their concerns about spyware, 13% of respondents admit that they don't read the EULA prior to downloading free software. The survey also showed that the percentage of those who do not read the EULA is comparable to those that don't read privacy notices and Web policies.
More than 90% of respondents download free software on the Internet. The most common programs include music players, screen savers and games. Almost of these popular software products bundle in adware or spyware downloads.
Legislation in the offing?
In general, most respondents state that they do not want new antispyware laws if they prevent them from obtaining free software. However, they do want to see new regulations that prevent adware companies from collecting and using information that identifies individuals and their families when using the Internet.
The majority of respondents don't understand Internet economics and, especially, the ad server marketplace. Nearly half of respondents don't appear to understand how "free" software programs earn profits. Nearly one in five believe that these companies obtain payment or commissions from ad software companies for each successful download.
Most respondents don't like being tracked by adware, spyware or researchware companies on the Internet. Nearly half state that it is never acceptable to track their activities when online.
Privacy advocate groups, government and politicians are very interested in this issue. However, the solution to the spyware problem might not be in new laws. Instead companies in the ad network space should consider becoming proactive in helping consumers gain more control over their online experience. This can include obtaining consumers' affirmative consent to the collection and use of their data, giving consumers clear and conspicuous notice about the network's collection and use of consumer information and making the privacy policy and EULA easy to find, read and understand.
In addition to controls over "bad apple" advertisers, results suggest the need for consumer outreach to raise awareness and understanding about the risks associated with "free" software.
