The Real Costs of an Economic Crisis: Evidence from Indonesia
Monday, April 15, 2002
The East Asian Crisis at the end of the last century hit Indonesia particularly hard. After 30 years of sustained economic growth, the collapse of the Indonesian rupiah in 1997/98 presaged a series of social, economic, and political upheavals that shocked the world. In 1998 economic output fell by around 15%-a magnitude that is comparable with the Great Depression in the United States. The effects of these upheavals reverberate throughout Indonesian society to this day.
In his Athenaeum lecture Duncan Thomas will provide an overview of the impact of the crisis on the well being of the Indonesian population. By examining changes in household expenditure patterns, changes in family incomes and work behaviors, as well as changes in health and education investments, the diversity of responses of individuals and families to the crisis becomes readily apparent. This evidence is used to identify some of the mechanisms that individuals and households have adopted to mitigate the deleterious impacts of the crises. Thomas and his colleagues based much of the discussion on data that were specially collected as part of the Indonesia Family Life survey.
Duncan Thomas is a professor in the department of economic at UCLA. His research interests include the economics of household decision-making; the well being of children; and investments in human capital including health and education. Duncan Thomas is the final speaker in the series sponsored by the Berger Institute of Work, Family, and Children.
An Evening with David Sedaris
Tuesday, April 16, 2002
Called the "funniest man alive" by Time Out New York, David Sedaris made his comic debut recounting his strange-but-true experiences of being a Macy's elf clad in green tights, reading his "SantaLand Diaries" on National Public Radio's Morning Edition.
Sedaris' sardonic humor and incisive social critique have since made him one of NPR's most popular and humorous commentators. At the end of each of his commentaries, Sedaris was identified as an apartment cleaner in New York City. But Sedaris isn't "just a working Joe who happens to put out these perfectly constructed pieces of prose," as Morning Edition's former producer Ira Glass puts it. The great skill with which Sedaris slices through euphemisms and political correctness proves that he is a master of satire. Everywhere he goes, David Sedaris delights his audience with his irreverent style and great humor. Consequently, his Athenaeum appearance is a must-see.
In addition to his commentaries on NPR, Sedaris is the author of the best-sellers Barrel Fever: Stories and Essays (1994), Naked (1997), and his recent best-seller Me Talk Petty One Day (2000). His other book, a collection of Christmas related stories, is titled Holidays on Ice (1997). David and his sister, Amy Sedaris, have also collaborated under the name The Talent Family to write several plays which have been produced at La Mama and at the Lincoln Center in New York City. These plays include Stump the Host (1993), Stitches (1994), One Woman Shoe (1995)- which received an Obie Award-and Incident at Cobbler's Knob (1997).
Sedaris taught writing at the Art Institute of Chicago for two years, and his essays appear regularly in The New Yorker. Additionally, his original radio pieces can often be heard on public radio's This American Life, distributed nationally by WBEZ in Chicago. He currently lives in Paris.
Please join us at the Athenaeum for this entertaining night of brilliant wit and wickedly funny stories. Dinner reservations are for CMC persons only. The talk is open to all without charge. Overflow seating will be accommodated in McKenna Auditorium.
The U.S. and China: A Relationship Marred by Misperception
Wednesday, April 17, 2002 Lunch
The U.S.-China relationship has been marked by misperceptions, unfulfilled expectations and a high degree of emotionalism. This mix has produced dramatic swings in the way these nations have viewed and treated each other. Friendship has alternated with hostility, with resultant major and at times disastrous consequences for both peoples. China's increasing economic and political weight forecasts a more active and assertive Chinese role on the international scene. How China and the United States relate to each other under these changing circumstances will have a great bearing on the fate of both nations and on the global order.

Russia's Troubled Transition
MICHAEL McFAUL
Wednesday, April 17, 2002
Very few people have a better understanding of Russia's political development than Michael McFaul. Indeed his research has a far reach. Influential in the Washington D.C. policy community, published in the American academic literature, and a frequent commentator in both the U.S. and Russian mass media, McFaul is Professor and Hoover Institute Fellow at Stanford University.
McFaul is author or coauthor of Post-Communist Politics: Democratic Prospects in Russia and Eastern Europe (1993), as well as The Troubled Birth of Russian Democracy: Political Parties, Programs and Profiles (1993), and two monographs on recent Russian elections. His most recent book, published last year by Cornell University Press, is Russia's Unfinished Revolution: Political Change from Gorbachev to Putin (2001). This most recent work forms the basis for his Athenaeum talk.
He regularly publishes articles in scholarly publications and in newspapers such as The New York Times and The Moscow Times. A regular commentator on BBC, CNN, NPR and the U.S. television networks, McFaul even coproduced and appeared in his own television program on the Russian Television Network, RTR, while in Russia at the Carnegie Center in Moscow.
Born and raised in Montana, he received his B.A. and M.A. at Stanford University studying international relations and Slavic languages and studies. He attended Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship and received his Ph.D. there in 1991. He is currently on the faculty at Stanford University.
McFaul will join us at the Athenaeum to reflect on Russia's troubled political development.
Imperfect Justice: The Unfinished Business of World War II
Thursday, April 18, 2002
What can be done to help Holocaust victims and their families? Stuart Eizenstat, a potent U.S. government advocate for payment of Holocaust claims, joins the Athenaeum to reflect on his work negotiating agreements on compensation for slave and forced labor and victims' assets. Eizenstat believes Western Civilization must deal with what he terms the "unfinished business of the twentieth century." First active on Holocaust claims issues in 1995 while U.S. Ambassador to the European Union, Eizenstat commanded great victories for victims of the Holocaust during his various tenures in the Clinton Administration.
As Clinton's leading expert on Holocaust-era issues, Eizenstat successfully negotiated major agreements with the Swiss, Germans, Austrians, and French. Clinton appointed him as Special Envoy for Property Claims in Central and Eastern Europe and benefited from his service (with CMC's Jonathan Petropoulos) on the Presidential Commission on Holocaust Assets in the United States. Eizenstat currently is on the U. S. Holocaust Memorial Council.
A leader in Jewish America, Eizenstat is famous also for his service as Deputy Secretary of the Treasury and in other departments in the Clinton Administration. The State Department's senior economic official, he was Under Secretary for Economic, Business, and Agricultural Affairs. He joined the Department of Commerce as the Under Secretary for International Trade. Secretary of Treasury Lawrence Summers and Secretaries of State Warren Christopher and Madeleine Albright all awarded Eizenstat their departments' highest awards.
Eizenstat earlier was active as President Carter `s chief domestic policy advisor and Executive Director of his domestic policy staff. But it is in his capacity as an expert on Holocaust-era issues that he joins us at the Athenaeum.
Eizenstat's evening Athenaeum address is part of a symposium on the Future of Holocaust Education and Post-Holocaust justice, to take place at Mary Pickford Auditorium on Thursday, April 18 from 2 to 4 p.m. Professors Jonathan Petropoulos and John Roth will announce the intention to create at CMC a Center for the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, and Human Rights and will review the history and mission of Holocaust studies at CMC.
The symposium will continue with a panel discussion on broader themes of Holocaust education and Post-Holocaust justice. Joining Eizenstat on the panel will be Michael Berenbaum (former director of research at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and professor at the University of Judaism, Sara Bloomfield (Executive Director of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, Marilyn Harran (of Chapman University's Rodgers Center for Holocaust Education), Richard Hovannisian (authority on the Armenian genocide and Professor of History at UCLA, and Elazar Barkan (Associate Professor of History at CGU).
Eizenstat's evening lecture at the Athenaeum will look more specifically at the issue of "the unfinished business" yet at hand.
Transformation of Cuban Art Since the Revolution: Creative Explosion vs. Censorship
Monday, April 22, 2002
With the new trends in globalization in a post-communist world how is Cuba's fabled art education faring? Besides conducting a national literacy campaign in the early years, the Cuban Revolution also made it a point to make art accessible to all. Cuban art education became known internationally after the creation of several schools and projects for the arts: the national art schools of Cubanacan; the regional schools of art that gave opportunities to people from rural areas to get an art education; the School of Cinematography; conservatories, workshops, and the University for the Arts.
Esther Maria Hernandez Arocha, an assistant professor at the Instituto Superior de Arte de la Habana (Havana University for the Arts), who now resides in Los Angeles, explores the unique situation of one of the revolution's most cherished accomplishments: art education for all.
Professor Hernandez Arocha has a strong foundation and expertise in the field of Cuban art, especially Cuban theater. In addition to teaching for over ten years at Havana University for the Arts, Professor Hernandez Arocha has been invited to lecture at the Academia Teatral in Milano, Italy; the University of Anahuac in Mexico City; and the University of Chihuahua, Mexico. She has also served as a jury member in several theater and video festivals in Mexico City, Havana, and Milano. Her seminal investigative work "On Young Cuban Dramaturgy" won the Prize for Best Scientific Investigation Work in Cuba (1997).
Hernandez Arocha is an active member of many theater-related activities in the United States. She played a fundamental role in the Festival Internacional de Teatro Hispanomericano in Miami and New York (2000). She is a member of the Board of Advisors for FITLA Latino International Theater Festival of Los Angeles that will take place in Los Angeles from November 1 to November 10.
Ms. Arocha's Athenaeum lecture is sponsored by the department of modern languages at Claremont McKenna College.
Readings and Reflections
Tuesday, April 23, 2002
An actress for 54 years, Pat Carroll continues to make a splash. It is our good fortune that she is willing to take a break from gracing television, stage, and cinema screens to visit the Athenaeum.
Carroll made her debut in a 1947 production of A Goose for the Gander, starring Gloria Swanson. After playing more than 200 roles, she first performed on Broadway in 1995 in the musical revue, Catch a Star, for which she received a Tony nomination.
In television, she earned an Emmy for her work on "Caesar's Hour." For ten years Carroll played one of the wicked stepsisters in Rogers and Hammerstein's CBS production of Cinderella. She was a series regular on shows such as Busting Loose, The Danny Thomas Show, and She's the Sheriff. A frequent guest star on many shows, she was also known as the "dowager queen" of talk and game shows.
Her first one-woman show- Gertrude Stein, Gertrude Stein, Gertrude Stein (1979)-ran for 18 months in New York and toured for four years. She won a Grammy for the Caedman recording, the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Production, and a Drama Desk Award for Best Actress. She began a career in classical theater in 1986 with roles in Shakespeare Theater productions in Washington, DC. For this she earned three Helen Hayes awards.
Current students may best recognize her portrayal of the wicked Ursula in Disney's The Little Mermaid (1989). But Carroll continues to perform in many other areas. She more recently performed on Broadway in George Kelly's The Show-Off (1992), in the New York Gilbert and Sullivan Players production of H.M.S. Pinafore (1996), and in Sophocles' Electra (1998). On television, she performed in a miniseries for American Movie Classics called "The Royale" (1997), which earned a nomination for a Daytime Emmy Award. Her latest film, Songcatcher (2201), is now on video.
Pat Carroll's appearance is a highlight in the Athenaeum's week-long focus on performance art.

However, in her Athenaeum appearance, Bowman will be highlighting a different aspect of her work. Besides speaking about and writing poetry, she also collaborates with avant-garde jazz composer and bassist John Lindberg. Together, they have performed and taught poetry and jazz workshops at a variety of venues in both North America and Europe, and have a forthcoming CD, recorded by the Pauline Oliveros Foundation's Deep Listening Space.
Bassist/composer Lindberg embarked on his professional career in 1975 at the age of sixteen. After having toured America working as a bassist in a variety of musical genres, he arrived in New York in 1977 and immersed himself in the world of jazz and improvised music, while pursuing private bass studies with David Izenzon and Dave Holland.
In the same year he cofounded the String Trio of New York, a performance ensemble that has produced fourteen recordings and presented hundreds of concerts worldwide and which is now celebrating its 20th anniversary season.
Two years later, he formed his first ensemble dedicated to the performance of his compositions. In all there are eighty original pieces that have been recorded to date. His ensembles and duo collaborations have performed throughout Europe, South America and North America.
John Lindberg is active composing, performing, and recording with his ensemble and with the String Trio of New York. He has also been actively involved in giving workshops and lecture/ demonstrations on composition, improvisation, and bass performance. His courses Words and Sounds (connecting literature and music) and Movement and Improvised Music (connecting dance and music) have been widely taught in university settings.
He has received fellowships from the New York Foundation for the Arts, the Arts International Collaborative Works, and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Please join us at the Athenaeum for a wonderful evening of jazz and poetry with Catherine Bowman and John Lindberg.
Under the Lights Presents
Dinner Theater
Arsenic and Old Lace by Joseph Kesselring
JUSTIN SHIROFF '02, director
Thursday, April 25, 2002
Friday. April 26, 2002
Saturday, April 27, 2002
Under the Lights, CMC's longest running student theater group, is proud to continue the tradition of highly entertaining theater and fantastic food with this spring's Dinner Theater performance of Joseph Kesselring's "Arsenic and Old Lace" (1952). This dark comedy has historic meaning for Under the Lights. Not only is it one of the most successful Broadway shows of all time, it was also, in 1989, the first play produced by Under the Lights in the Athenaeum.
In a quiet neighborhood in Brooklyn, the Brewster family has a long-standing tradition of being pillars in the community. The Brewster sisters are known for their charity, but what isn't known is the nature of that charity-the gentle murder of lonely old men. Nephews Mortimer, a neurotic theater critic; Teddy, who thinks he's Teddy Roosevelt; and Jonathan, a psychopath on the run; only complicate matters by bringing their own eccentricities into the mix. Throw in the NYPD, a sanitarium, and a very loud bugle and you have a raucous comedy sure to bring down the house!
The cast: Erin Bennett '05, Mike Baehr '05, Erin Evans '05, David Mistysyn '05, Amy Nelson '05, Suzannah Ferraioli '04, John Reilly '04, Andy Tharp '04, Ahmar Iqbal '04, Tom Meyer '03, Stephanie Hoffman '02, Geoffrey Pelton '02, and Misty Thomas '02.
The play lasts approximately two hours, and contains some adult humor. Dinner Theater is made possible by Under the Lights, the MMC Athenaeum, ASCMC, the letter w, and the number 6.

Economic Causes and Consequences of September 11th
What light, if any, can the professional tools of an economist shed on the causes and consequences of the terror-destruction of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001? We can trace the consequences- the short recession, falling rents on tall office tours, fluctuating oil prices and their impact on world political economy. The economic aspects of the causes are much more shadowy, but they are real as well: there are striking parallels between the Prostestant Reformation, the rise of European Fascism nearly a century ago, and the politico-economic-religious stew out of which September 11 erupted.
J. Bradford DeLong is a Professor of Economics at the University of California at Berkeley. He received his B.A., M.A., and PhD in economics from Harvard University. He previously taught at Boston University, the European University Institute, Florence, and Harvard University. He is currently the Co-Editor of the Journal of Economic Perspectives and is a Research Associate at the prestigious National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER). He is also a Visiting Scholar at the Federal Reserve in San Francisco. Previously he served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of the United States Treasury for Economic Policy during the Clinton Administration.
His research interests span 20th century American economic history to the "New Economy." Professor DeLong has published in leading academic journals including the American Economic Review, Quarterly Journal of Economics, and the Journal of Finance. He currently writes a monthly column for Fortune.
Join Professor DeLong on April 30th, at CMC's Athenaeum, as he discusses the economic causes and consequences of September 11.

Women's Basketball Squanders Late Opportunities in 84-82 Overtime Loss at Lenoir-Rhyne to Open 2011-2012 Season
November 11, 2011
HICKORY, N.C. A layup with 27 seconds left in overtime by Lenoir-Rhynes Caroline Laughter enabled the host Bears to squeak past Pfeiffer University in the 2011 womens basketball season opener Friday night in the Shuford Gym. Pfeiffer erased a 10-point halftime deficit in the defeat with Brittany Cox draining a game-high 30 points while Christina Harvey posted a double-double with 22 points and 10 boards in the loss.
At the end of regulation, Pfeiffer held a 71-67 lead with just nine seconds left before Lenoir-Rhyne scored the four points needed to force extra basketball. Laughter hit a crucial three-pointer with two ticks left before a Lady Falcon turnover and foul with one second left sent Cameron Sealey to the free throw line. After missing the first attempt, Sealey hit the second for a 71-71 score at the end of 40 minutes.
Going back and forth in the extra period, a pair of Shelley Reese free throws and triple by Cox put Pfeiffer up 80-77 with 1:48 remaining. Two consecutive layups by Laughter turned the score in favor of the Bears 81-80. After a pair of missed free throws by the Lady Falcons, Whitley Culler would knock down three of her final four free throw attempts to help seal the deal.
Along with Sealey, Jazmine Charles came up with a team-high 19 points to lead the Bears. Sealey added 11 boards for the double-double while Culler finished with 15 points and a game-high 13 rebounds. In addition to Coxs 30 and Harveys 22, Reese also finished in double-digits for Pfeiffer dropping in a dozen. Both teams shot over 40% from the floor and 68% from the charity stripe while Lenoir-Rhyne dominated the glass 55-39.
The Lady Falcons will be back in action on Saturday afternoon taking on Mars Hill in the final game of the 2011 Lenoir-Rhyne Invitational. Pfeiffer will host Anderson in their home opener on Tuesday night.

I was raised in the World Wide Church of God, a cult/Christian sect that had plenty of bizzare and extreme practices. WWCG renounced most of it's super extreme beliefs over the last 10 years and merged with evangelical Christianity. In the process, it's lost most of it's members to splinter groups and mainstream churches.
Looking back on my former church it's interesting to see the parallels between the founding of the World Wide Church of God and Mormonism. Most quotes below are from the WWCG's own web site. Interestingly, Armstrong was accused of borrowing some doctrine's from Mormonism.
The late Walter Martin, in his classic The Kingdom of the Cults, devoted 34 pages to the group, claiming how Armstrong borrowed freely from Seventh-day Adventist, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Mormon doctrines.
-Both were founded by a man who thought all the other Christian sects "had it wrong". (Joseph Smith and Hebert W. Armstrong).
-Both founders were charismatic and gained followers by force of will more so than sound theological arguments. Armstrong's background was advertising.
many people continued to be attracted to Herbert Armstrong's style and teachings, and the church continued to grow until Armstrong died in 1986 at the age of 93. He left a denomination that numbered 120,000 people in attendance every week. Annual income was 200 million dollars. Magazine circulation was in the millions every month, and the television program was one of the top two religious programs in America.
-Armstrong also had visions and encounters with God/Christ and viewed himself as God's prophet. Armstrong infamously had an org-chart where he was directly under Christ in authority.
Armstrong viewed himself as God's apostle, leading the one true church. Armstrong had supreme doctrinal authority. If anyone was disloyal, that person would most likely be fired and expelled from the church fellowship. (Legally, Armstrong was under the authority of a board of directors, but they always supported his decisions.)
-Armstrong also believed that Americans were descended from the 10 Tribes of Israel.
Armstrong also had many unusual ideas about prophecy, and these may have been the most attractive doctrines of all. He taught that the United States and Britain are modern descendants of the northern ten tribes of Israel, and that therefore many biblical prophecies apply to the Anglo-Saxon peoples. He saw himself as an end-time fulfillment of prophecy, with a message of warning for the "Israelite" peoples.
Armstrong was always making bold prophecies. When things didn't go according to plan, he would just make new ones.
The Great Tribulation would soon start, he warned in the 1930s, in the 1940s, in the 1950s, in the 1960s, in the 1970s, and in the 1980s — but the good news is that Christ will soon return and rule for 1,000 years. This prediction was so important to Armstrong that it became the center of the gospel. It was the reason the radio and television broadcasts were titled "The World Tomorrow." The future utopia was the good news.
WWCG used young college grads to spred the church's message.
Young graduates of Ambassador College were then sent to various cities to gather the believers into small churches. The church grew rapidly in the 1950s and 1960s. The radio program was sent to England, Australia, the Philippines, Latin America, and Africa. Church offices were opened in numerous nations around the world. The name of the church was changed from "Radio Church of God" to "Worldwide Church of God."
Herbert Armstrong had scandals involving sexual improprieties including allegations of incest. The churches doctrine regarding divorce and remarriage changed conveniently at the same time Armstrong wanted to remarry. This is somewhat similar to Joseph Smith's doctrine of plural marriage closely tied his personal desires for multiple wives.
Both churches tithe 10% of their income.
WWCG had similar strict rules of personal conduct. Mormons can't drink or smoke. We had similar strange rules.
n addition to the weekly Sabbath, the WCG observed seven annual Sabbaths, based on Leviticus 23. Church members also avoided pork, shrimp and certain other meats (Lev. 11). They gave one tithe to support the ministry, used another to keep the annual Sabbaths, and in some years gave a third tithe to the church for its poor members. The financial requirements were high, but they also increased the levels of commitment.
Armstrong taught that repentance involves a change in behavior, that Christianity involves a way of life. In the WCG, this focused primarily on prohibitions. WCG members were not allowed to vote, serve in the military, marry after divorce, go to doctors, use cosmetics, or observe Christmas, Easter and birthdays.
Both churches had a practice of banishing troublesome members. We called it "disfellowship".

Awesome Bar
Tags are most useful when used with the Awesome Bar feature. When you type something into the Location bar, the autocomplete results will include items that match tags.

The Location bar will include the tagged bookmarks in its autocomplete results.

Smart Folders
You can add tags to bookmarks so they will show up in search results that you save as a Smart Folder. For example, if you want to make a smart bookmark folder for "shopping" sites, you could bookmark and tag http://marketplace.mozilla.org/ with shopping so it will show in the Smart Folder search results even though the Mozilla Marketplace doesn't have "shopping" in its web address or page title. For more information, see the Smart Bookmarks folders article.

Hershey, before receiving treatment at the ASPCA Animal Hospital
Today the ASPCA arrested Queens resident Grimilda Amil for allegedly neglecting and starving her three-year-old male Yorkshire terrier, who has been recovering under our care for nearly two months.
Amil brought her Yorkie, Hershey, to an ASPCA Mobile/Spay Neuter Clinic on June 27. Alarmed at Hershey's condition, Clinic staff called our Humane Law Enforcement Agents, who quickly responded.
Amil relinquished ownership of Hershey to the ASPCA, and Agents transported the tiny dog to the ASPCA Animal Hospital.
There, veterinarians determined Hershey— whom they found to be emaciated, anemic and suffering from pressure sores—had been starved. At that time, Hershey weighed just 5.2 pounds. Today he weighs in at 10.1 pounds, a 94% increase!
Hershey is completing his recovery in a caring ASPCA foster home. When he's ready, he'll be made available for adoption.
Amil, 55, was charged with one count of misdemeanor animal cruelty. If convicted, she faces up to one year in jail and/or a $1,000 fine. She is due in Queens Criminal Court on October 4.
If you suspect you've witnessed animal cruelty, please don't hesitate to report it.
I wish she could be locked in a cage and starved like she did to the yorkie zero tollerence for people like her
People should need a license to care for a pet or a child. There are too many abusers out there who have no idea how to love or how to be loved. Animal abuse is tragic and anyone who abuses these tender souls who know only how to love and forgive should be locked away from society forever. We're over-populated enough and have no room for the cruel.
Help them keep up the good works of elping our animal friends with what they can not do for them selves. We Care!
Help them keep up the good works of helping our animal friends with what they can not do for them selves. We Care!
It's time to step up the punishment on animal abuse! All she's getting is a slap on the wrist. Punish them in the manner they caused suffering on the animal. There should also be a list of animal abusers so you know if one is in your town. This bull has gone on long enough! Step up the punishment!!! Punishment is not paying a fine or sitting in a jail cell. That's not punishment. Not in my book!
This is just one more instance of the kind of deplorable human trash and low lives who harm animals and inhabit this country and the rest of the world.
when will they ever make this a felony?
It's sad that some people treat such loving dogs so badly, but I'm glad the ASPCA reacted to this in the appropriate way. Too many starving animals are turning up in New York City's Animal Care & Control Shelters and I wish the ASPCA would intervene in these cases too. Why isn't the ASPCA more closelu affiliated with NYC's shelters?
That witch needs a good punch in the face and left to starve-waste of space !
I am so sick about this! People that harm animals should be punished the same way -I have yorkies, and can't imagine this treatment to them or any other animal for that matter! Lock her up and starve her!

September 21, 87
Vol. 03 , No. 02
As the fall semester gains momentum, remember that the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum continues to offer numerous opportunities for you to step away from daily pressures. Here you can encounter ideas and experiences that are often new, controversial, or simply refreshing. This month the Athenaeum's "Power and Politics in Athletics" symposium is sure to give you a different outlook on the concerns of players and personalities in the highly publicized world of professional and collegiate athletics.
Other events not to miss are continuations of the United States Constitution lecture series, currently spotlighting William Bradford, and the series about California history, featuring Kevin Starr. Both series continue in November. Watch The Fortnightly to catch every episode.
Being a student fellow, I look forward to attending as many Athenaeum-sponsored events as possible, and I hope that you will do the same. Remember that an additional goal for the Athenaeum is to accommodate as many student-sponsored events as possible, but please keep in mind that we often have more scheduling flexibility for lunches and teas than for dinners.
Also, there are many work opportunities the Athenaeum offers to enterprising students; our master chef, Terri, is presently looking for good workers in the kitchen to keep operations running smoothly.
Most of all, I stress that while our programs for the year will encompass a broad range of interests in an effort to appeal to you, if you feel that we are overlooking a topic or theme, please contact me or James Van Beek at the Athenaeum, x8244. We are always open to your comments and suggestions.
Power and Politics in Athletics
Amateur athletics play an important role in the social and recreational lives of many Americans. Professional athletics are big business-seven-figure salaries attest to that-but big business is no longer reserved for professionals alone. During the past decade amateur sports, especially at the collegiate level, have become politicized also. "Power and Politics in Athletics," the Athenaeum's first symposium for the 1987-88 college year, features a variety of people from both amateur and professional athletics. The symposium takes place from September 29 to October 1, and examines and questions whether power and politics have, in fact, replaced the fair play and recreational atmosphere of athletics as a whole.
On Tuesday, September 29, boxing entrepreneur Don King and sports commentator Roy Firestone open the symposium with an interview concerning big business and athletics. King brought the "big gate" to the boxing ring. Three of King's best known clients are Mohammed Ali, Mike Tyson, and Leon Spinks. While serving time for a crime subsequently pardoned by the governor of Ohio, King read intensely, from Plato to Nietzsche. Firestone, who hosts the five-day-a-week talkshow, "Sportslook," on ESPN interviews King. Firestone. also covers the NFL for the sports network, and is a master of impressions (from Howard Cosell to Woody Allen and Johnny Mathis). His experience as an interviewer and entertainer should contribute to a lively discussion with King.
Wednesday evening, September 30, United States Olympic gold medalist Karch Kiraly joins Celtic player Conner Henry, Tacoma Stars midfielder Ricky Davis, and Olympic track and field medalist Kate Schmidt for a panel interview to be moderated by former Los Angeles Rams quarterback Pat Haden. Kiraly, who just recently competed in the Pan American games as a member of the United States' Men's Volleyball team, is a bio-chemistry graduate of UCLA. Henry completed his rookie year with the Celtics this past season, and is the son of Professor Granville Henry. Davis served as a captain of the United States' international soccer team and played for the NASL until that league folded. Schmidt is a two-time Olympic medalist and former world record holder in the javalin. Haden, who played for the Rams for six seasons was the Rose Bowl Most Valuable Player of the Game in 1975. He graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Southern California and was a Rhodes scholar. Presently, he is an attorney and works for CBS, covering college football games.
Closing night of the symposium features Mel Levine, draft agent for the NFL and Chicago Bear receiver Glen Kozlowski. Levine has 30 top-round college draft choices as his clients. He is concerned about a major problem facing college athletics today: the influx of agents paying fees to athletes who remain ineligible. Levine focuses his discussion on ways that college athletics can be reformed.
Use the reservation coupon in this issue to sign up for any or all of these symposium events.
Symposium Calendar:
Tuesday, September 29, 1987:
Sports commentator Roy Firestone of ESPN interviews boxing entrepreneur Don King; 5:30 p.m. reception and dinner, 7:00 p.m. program.
Wednesday, September 30, 1987:
Pat Haden, former Los Angeles Rams quarterback hosts a panel interview with volleyball player Karch Kiraly, Celtics member Conner Henry, midfielder for the Tacoma Stars, Ricky Davis, and javalin thrower Kate Schimdt; 5:30 p.m. reception and dinner, 7:00 p.m. program.
Thursday, October 1, 1987:
Sports agent Mel Levine and Chicago Bear receiver Glen Kozlowski give a presentation concerning big business in athletics; 5:30 p.m. reception and dinner, 7:00 p.m. program.
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1987 11:30 a.m.
The Athenaeum presents the year's first Sunday brunch on the morning of October 4, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. What better way to start the day than with a splendid morning feast prepared by Terri and her talented crew? Make reservations early for this immensely popular Athenaeum event. Due to the popularity of this event however, the brunch is open only to CMC-associated individuals (and a guest).
Public Education and the Religious Right
WILLIAM BRADFORD, Jr.
0n Monday, October 5, our series celebrating the 200th birthday of the Constitution continues with William Bradford, a senior partner in the Washington, D.C., law firm of Hogan and Hartson, where he heads the pro bono department.
Last fall Bradford represented the Alabama State Board of Education, which was challenged in court by religious fundamentalists. The case involved a charge that textbooks in Alabama's schoolrooms illegally espouse a religion called "secular humanism." The judge ruled in favor of the plaintiffs, but in lateAugust 1987, the U.S. District Court of Appeals unanimously reversed the decision.
A graduate of Swarthmore College and Yale Law School, Bradford is an interesting and articulate speaker who will address a subject that is receiving nationwide attention.
Small Renaissance, Southern California Style: The Los Angeles of Jake Zeitlin
Noted California historian Kevin Starr continues his three-part series of lectures at 7:00 p.m., following a reception and dinner beginning at 5:30 p.m. The remarkable Jake Zeitlin, friend of numerous authors (his pals included Aldous Huxley, D.H. Lawrence, William Faulkner, Tennessee Williams, and Carl Sandberg) and a noted boolkseller, is the central figure in the renaissance that Dr. Starr discusses on Wednesday, October 14. Through sheer force of personal magnetism and good-humored generosity, Zeitlin became the center of a circle that included artists, politicians, academicians, attorneys, and journalists. The "Zeitlin circle" transformed southern California into a nexus of books, art, and scholarship. Zeitlin died at the age of 84 on Monday, August 31, 1987. This is an appropriate time to discover or remember him.
Tuesday, October 27, 1987, and Thursday, October 29, 1987:
John Irving, novelist
Wednesday, October 28, 1987:
Gov. George Deukmejian (7:30 p.m. speech at McKenna Auditorium)

Afternoon Tea. Tea and sweets are currently being served Monday through Friday in the Athenaeum library from 3:00-4:30 p.m.
Wednesday Lunch. Every Wednesday at noon, lunch is served in one of the small Athenaeum dining halls for students and faculty who wish to share a meal and thoughts. The lunch is an open forum, and reservations are not required.
May we remind you: no smoking inside the Athenaeum. Thank you.

Apropos of the previous discussion on Dragon Age, I have always loved the following quote by Jane Yolen:
And for adults, the world of fantasy books returns to us the great words of power which, in order to be tamed, we have excised from our adult vocabularies. These words are the pornography of innocence, words which adults no longer use with other adults, and so we laugh at them and consign them to the nursery, fear masking as cynicism. These are the words that were forged in the earth, air, fire, and water of human existence, and the words are:
Love. Hate. Good. Evil. Courage. Honor. Truth.
— Jane Yolen, Touch Magic: Fantasy, Faerie & Folklore in the Literature of Childhood
Perhaps in the process of making a work of fantasy "adult", you end up robbing it of some of its potential power.

NYC Telphone Service, Change the Way You Think
Thinking about ditching your home phone service company? Before you do, we think you should know that despite the increase in cell phone popularity, landline phones still bring several advantages over their cellular counterparts. Where cell phone companies charge you hundreds of dollars for talk-time overages, landlines phone service companies typically charge one flat rate per month no matter how long you talk. Where cell phone calls transfer through radio waves, landline phone services are transmitted through a cable, making landline calls clearer and the connection more stable. Where cell phones batteries run out quickly and require electricity to re-charge, a corded landline phone can make calls even when the power has been out. The list of landline phone service advantages goes on, and on. So, before you decide that the cell phone only lifestyle is right for you, check out how easy it is to get the security and benefits of residential phone service in New York with phone services through RCN.

Conciliation Court hearings are informal, but you must be prepared to present your case. Attorneys are only allowed to represent parties in Conciliation Court with permission of the Judge or Referee. All parties and witnesses who appear will testify under oath. The witnesses should be present and ready to testify.
If a witness is reluctant to appear, you may get a subpoena to compel them to appear. You can get a subpoena from the Conciliation Court Office, Room 170, Ramsey County Courthouse, 15 West Kellogg Boulevard, Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102. You will need one subpoena for each witness you want to testify. There is a fee of $18.00 for each subpoena requested.
Subpoena's must be served by an uninterested third party. A subpoena cannot be served by a party to the case (the plaintiff or defendant) or another witness. The person serving the subpoena must fill out an affidavit of service. This form is available at the Conciliation Court Office and can be picked up when you request your subpoena(s). Under Minnesota Statute 357.22 the witness must be paid a witness fee of $20.00 per day plus mileage expenses of .28 cents per mile to be calculated to and from the witnesses place of residence and the court. A check for the amount of these expenses must accompany the subpoena. Minnesota Statute 357.22 subdivision 2 states: No person is obliged to attend as a witness in any civil case unless one day's attendance and travel fees are paid or tendered the witness in advance.
Written statements and affidavits of persons not present in court have little value if you try to use them in court as evidence and in some cases may not be allowed as evidence at all.
You should also bring to court all other evidence, such as receipts, repair bills, estimates, photographs and other items to help prove your claim. You can also get a subpoena for documents relating to your claim that the defendant or some other person has but will not give to you.
Before you go to court, prepare a list of facts you wish to present. Organize your presentation as clearly and completely as possible so you will not forget important facts and details.

Alan Anticevic PhD
Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and of Psychology; Administrative Director, NIAAA Center for the Translational Neuroscience of Alcoholism
Biographical Info
Dr. Anticevic trained in Clinical Psychology and Cognitive Neuroscience at Washington University in St. Louis where he worked with Drs. Deanna Barch and David Van Essen. Following his graduate training, Dr. Anticevic completed his internship in Clinical Neuropsychology at Yale University. After internship, he joined the Yale University Department of Psychiatry as research faculty working closely with Dr. John Krystal, while concurrently serving as the Administrative Director for the Center for the Translational Neuroscience of Alcoholism. Subsequently, he was appointed as an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry and Psychology at the Yale University School of Medicine, where he directs a clinical neuroimaging laboratory focused on severe psychiatric illness such as schizophrenia. Dr. Anticevic is a recipient of the NARSAD Young Investigator Award, the International Congress of Schizophrneia Research Young Investigator Award and the NIH Director's Early Independence Award.
Broadly, his research interests are centered on cognitive neuroscience of psychiatric illness, functional connectivity, as well as functional neuroimaging analysis methodology. Specifically, Dr. Anticevic is interested in characterizing brain circuits involved in cognitive operations such as working memory as well as their interaction with neural systems involved in affective processes, with the focus of understanding how these interactions may go awry in the context of severe neuropsychiatric illness (e.g. schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and substance abuse). Methodologically, his research harnesses the combination of task-based, resting-state, pharmacological functional neuroimaging, as well as computational modeling approaches to mechanistically understand neural circuit dysfunction in disorders such as schizophrenia.
International Activity
- Applications of functional connectivity to the study of schizophrenia
This collaborative project with Dr. Gong Qiyong and Dr. John Krystal focuses on using functional connectivity and other neuroimaging modalities to better understand the neurobiology of schizophrenia.

Classic Fit Berek for TravelSmith Reversible Denim Pants 10 10
Light weight and comfortable I echo the reviews that the pants run tight/small compared to other TravelSmith pants of the same size. I returned the first pair and ordered one size larger and they fit great. To my surprise, the fabric is very light and comfortable for our tropical climate. I can see these becoming a regular in my travel wardrobe as there is enough room to use my silk long underwear for chilly weather and the legs are slim enough to fit nicely into my winter boots. I'm not a big fan of black, but I ordered the black/charcoal pair to augment the navy/cobalt pair I already have. I don't use pants pockets that much anyway, so don't miss having them on this pant. I found the zipper a bit sticky, but a little graphite solved that problem. I am 5'4" and usually order petit for length, but found these to be a good length at just slightly past my ankle bone. If you are tall, I suspect these will fall just above the ankle. January 31, 2014
Fit is Off I totally agree with the previous reviewer that the waist is too small and the legs too large. I tried the 8 (my normal size) which I could not get zipped. I then tried the 10 which was super snug in the waist but flared out way too much in the lower hip and upper thigh region. The material is just lovely and the reverse feature is most functional but the fit is just odd. This will be the 2nd Berek purchase that I have had to return due to fit. Too bad because I like the look and function of their styles. September 18, 2013
Strange fit. I liked the idea of 2 pants in one! But.....these pants run very small. I had to return the first pair and order a size up. I ultimately wound up returning them for a refund. The material makes for a very uncomfortable fit. Stiff and unmovable! I also think that they would drastically shrink in the wash. September 29, 2013
Great product! Would buy a second pair in different color if the slacks had pockets on both sides. Pockets are important to me, so for the times I wear the slacks on pocketless side, not very useful. Overall quality is excellent. Color is vivid. Very comfortable. October 17, 2013
2 for 1 winner I have both pairs. Wish I could buy more colors. Light weight and doesn't need ironing. Quick to dry. This decreased my clothing needs as I'd wash and wear the reverse side. I also wish the color difference for the black pair was more pronounced. All in all, great idea. Thanks. August 24, 2014
Really small I love the quality of these pants, but they run super small. I will return and order up 1-2 sizes. August 28, 2014
Fantastic! Finally, pants that actually fit without altering! All of the reviews about the waist too small and the hips too big may be correct, but for women with an hourglass figure, they are perfect. I love these pants. They do NOT shrink in the wash. I have never put them in the dryer as they recommend air drying. May 24, 2014
Versatile Choice Love these! Was a bit skeptical after reading the other reviews, but these pants fit me nicely. (Will admit that I have narrow hips and fat legs.) Like the navy/cobalt pair so much that I am getting a black/charcoal pair also. A little pricey, but then you are getting essentially two pairs of pants! September 19, 2013

By Jared Serbu
Federal News Radio
Following the formal cancellation of a $450 million contract to build a modern, departmentwide back office IT system at the Department of Homeland Security, DHS officials are still assessing a path forward for modernizing disparate financial management systems that are hindering efforts toward obtaining a clean audit opinion.
Federal News Radio first reported the cancellation of the CACI contract last Thursday.
But in testimony Friday before the House Oversight and Government Reform's subcommittee on Government Organization, Efficiency and Financial Management, DHS's acting chief financial officer, Peggy Sherry, sought to reassure lawmakers that cancelling the contract did not represent a huge waste of money.
Sherry told the panel DHS only obligated about $3.5 million under the contract before work came to a stop.
"We had really just gotten out of the gate on this, and what we got for that was an integrated master schedule and a draft training plan as well," she said.
The decision last week to cancel the huge financial management system contract came two months after a successful bid protest by a CACI competitor.
The Government Accountability Office found Homeland Security had changed the scope of the work before it issued the contract for the Transformation and System Consolidation (TASC) program in November. DHS officials have previously acknowledged that they went into the process without a sufficiently well-defined set of requirements, and whether or not industry would be able to meet those requirements.
And while DHS says its lack of financial clarity is a huge problem, the department is no longer trying to create an all-encompassing system all at once. Instead, Sherry said they'll focus on incremental improvements that update those parts of the DHS that have critically outdated systems.
"Based on the changes in IT policy and governance, in addition to the grave fiscal environment we're in, it really makes sense for us to focus in on our critical business needs and those systems that need to be modernized," she said. "As we lay out our overall strategy, we'll consider how we'll include those components that already have modernized systems. But really right now, it's focusing on those critical business needs and being able to do this in small, manageable segments."
However, DHS components with critical business needs make up about 70 percent of the department, she said.
"They're on systems that are either legacy or proprietary or not supported anymore," she said. "In many instances they're not integrated with the acquisition system or with the asset system, and what that means is that I can't have strong internal controls."
But in the meantime, Sherry said just getting the department ready for the prospect of implementing an integrated financial management system had forced DHS to make big improvements in the quality and accuracy of the data in its legacy systems, even if the systems themselves are sub-par.
She said even without a contract or a new request for proposals in place, a team in her office is working across the department to improve the fidelity of their data, in preparation for the eventual migration to a new system.
"What you can't do is have data that's not ready to move to the new system," she said. "If it's not cleaned up or if your balances aren't good, there's no sense in moving garbage into the new system. We've worked with the components to clean up their data. We've worked on developing change management plans, because so much of one of these financial systems modernizations really centers around changing the way people do their business. What we've been doing is really setting the foundation, getting the federal government ready for the contract."
Sherry said DHS is still working toward the goal of obtaining a qualified audit opinion for its consolidated balance sheet for fiscal year 2011, but the department's biggest challenge is the Coast Guard. She said her staff is meeting regularly with Coast Guard officials on their Financial Strategy for Audit Readiness.
"In addition, you have FEMA, which has functionality as well as system security issues that must be addressed," she said. "That's also a critical business need. And ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), which is the accounting service provider for five other DHS components, also is identified as having system security and functionality issues."
But even without a consolidated system in place, Sherry said DHS has made significant progress toward clean books. The department has gone from 18 material financial weaknesses five years ago down to six, all of which she said the department has isolated to the Coast Guard. Coast Guard Commandant Robert Papp issued a memo to the entire service in January that stressed the importance of correcting the service's financial management shortcomings.
