OMB prepares for open gov sites to go dark in May
Several sites, including Data.gov, the IT Dashboard and the FEDRamp cloud efforts, could be shut down in the next two months if the administration doesn't get more money under the E-government fund. In all, nine sites are on the list to be discontinued by July 30 if OMB doesn't find money to keep it going. Experts say OMB has several ways to keep the sites up, including pass-the-hat among agencies.

Latest O.J. Trial Brings Distorted News Ethics
By Tim Rutten Los Angeles Times
If you practice journalism long enough, you begin to develop a mental list of characters you hope never again to type in a particular sequence.
Take, for example, the letters that spell "O.J. Simpson."
Like most sensible people, you probably have been doing something useful with your time recently — figuring out, say, what "field dressing a moose" actually entails, watching your 401(k) implode or setting up a rescue program for rabid skunks. You haven't, in other words, been following the latest legal melodrama in which the onetime football star turned superstar defendant has managed to embroil himself.
Just to bring the sane up to speed: Simpson is being tried on armed robbery and other charges in Las Vegas. Authorities there allege that the former NFL running back and a number of gun- wielding confederates entered a hotel room and held up two dealers of sports collectibles, making off with an estimated $100,000 worth of memorabilia, some of it from Simpson's career, some of it related to other professional athletes. The former Heisman Trophy winner denies guns were used and says he simply was reclaiming items — some of them family photos — that had been stolen from his home. If convicted, Simpson could spend the rest of his life in prison, which surely would make a lot of people happy and probably wouldn't bother that many others.
So what makes all this more than a curiosity — or, perhaps, a minor-key argument that justice deferred isn't always or necessarily justice denied?
Well, if you take a step back for a second, you might recall that Simpson's trial for the murder of his estranged wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and Ron Goldman — a young waiter out to do a customer a good turn — was more than just another "trial of the century." The Simpson case was a journalistic battering ram that breached the wall between the celebrity-obsessed tabloids and serious mainstream news organizations, leaving gaps in values and practices that never have been adequately repaired.
Suffice to say, everybody decided to jump through the breach and into the swamp, and, to an extent too easily accepted, there we all have remained. Thus the various frenzies over Anna Nicole Smith and Michael Jackson and Paris Hilton or this month's missing blonde.
Tabloid subjects are bad enough; tabloid methods are something else entirely. What makes the tawdry little trial under way in Las Vegas such a melancholy affair is the revelation that a key figure in the sordid sequence of events has been paid to tell his story, and not only by the tabloid Web site TMZ but also by the semi- respectable syndicated television show "Entertainment Tonight" and the previously respectable ABC News.
Monday, a witness named Thomas Riccio testified that TMZ paid him $150,000 and "Entertainment Tonight" and ABC shelled out $25,000 and $15,000, respectively, to obtain interviews, photographs and audio recordings he made of the alleged robberies. (We'll leave it to the jury to sort out what to make of the fact that Riccio arranged the meeting between Simpson and the memorabilia dealers, secretly recorded what happened and then sold the recordings to TMZ before making them available to police.)
There's nothing to be said about TMZ other than that the people who run it are the informational equivalent of pimps and panderers. But what to make of "Entertainment Tonight," which has a reasonable reputation, and of ABC News? Riccio testified Monday that producers from both organizations told him that although they couldn't ethically pay for interviews, they could pay for his photographs and audiotape. Given that these materials are evidence of an alleged crime, that's pushing the ethical envelope, but you've got to love what came next.
According to Jeffrey Schneider, a spokesman for ABC News, Riccio was paid so the network could broadcast his audiotape on "Good Morning America." When parts of it turned out to be inaudible, Riccio had to be interviewed and that conversation was broadcast on the show. Right.
The argument against paying for the news is simple enough: When you pay sources for news, they have an economic stake in telling you what you want to hear and, anymore, telling you the most sensational thing you want to hear. The implications aren't hard to foresee — unless, of course, you're trying to carve out a future alongside the tabloids in the gutter, while pretending to be somewhere else.

The NHL and NHLPA didn't get much accomplished on Thursday in terms of getting any closer to ending the lockout, but there's still optimism that a deal will get done in time to have a season — albeit a much shortened one.
Michael Grange of Rogers Sportsnet joined NESN Daily and said he expects a deal to get done by the "real deadline" of Jan. 8. If a deal is reached by that date, players would have time to get to training camp by Jan. 11, and the season would be able to start by Jan. 19.
Hopefully Grange's optimism rings true. The two sides are running out of time, but a deadline could increase urgency.
Watch the video above to hear Grange's update on the lockout from New York.

Big Law Firm Bonuses from SalaryExpert
December 17, 2010
Big Law Firm Bonuses
Compensation for attorneys is affected by a variety of factors including location and hours billed, but the size of the law firm is a very important determinant as well. The larger firms are able to handle matters that can produce a level of profitability not usually matched by firms with less than 100 attorneys. Big law firms tend to cluster in their pay practices with the most prestigious firms setting a structure that other large firms will follow. Firms don't need to purchase salary surveys as the information on associate salaries is widely available. This is not the case for the salaries of other firm staff which are more opaque. Big firms in New York City generally pay their associates the highest attorney salaries in the United States, though Chicago, Los Angeles and a few other cities are close. One of the most prestigious of the New York City firms is Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP, so the announcement of its bonus structure at the end of this year was widely anticipated. The structure, like most associate compensation at large firms, is lockstep based on seniority and is given below.
- 1st Year – $7,500
- 2nd Year — $10,000
- 3rd Year — $15,000
- 4th Year — $20,000
- 5th Year — $25,000
- 6th Year — $30,000
- 7th year — $35,000
These bonuses are in addition to base salaries that start at $160,000 and generally move up in increments of $10,000 to $20,000 per year. The base salary at most of these firms remains what it was in 2007, but the bonus for 1st Year's in 2010 will be significantly less than what Cravath gave its 1st Year's in 2007 ($45,000). Most associates won't be pushed to leave by their disappointment with the bonus as the job market for young associates remains very weak as they also consider the long term possibility of partnership. For 2009 the average profits per partner at Cravath was $2.7M. This was up from $2.5M in 2008 but down from the 2007 number of $3.3M. We won't know the 2010 profits per partner for a few months but, given the bonuses, it may be that Cravath's profitability is not back to the pre-recession numbers yet.
Numbers such as these profits per partner figures have encouraged many young people to take on six figure debt loads. Unfortunately, even those who gain admission to the most prestigious law schools frequently find that the new normal for the legal market doesn't offer them a salary that will allow them to pay off their debt in a reasonable amount of time while having the life they had hoped for. If they can't find a place in these big firms or if they find they don't want to work in a big firm due to the time demands and the nature of the work, many attorneys feel trapped by the debt burden they must carry, which is not dischargeable in bankruptcy. While the Great Recession will be remembered primarily for reminding people that taking on mortgage debt is risky, it may also due the same for student debt.

Reconstructive male nose surgery is by no means a simple cosmetic procedure. Nasal contouring for men is distinctly different from that of women. It demands great skill and experience on behalf of the performing plastic surgeon to bring about the perfect masculine structure to the nose.
Reconstructive Male Nose Surgery for a More Attractive Nose
Men generally pay more importance to the shape, rather than the size of their nose. As such having a long, wide, bulbous nose or even a deviated septum which gives a crooked appearance to the nose can be quite frustrating. Fortunately this is not something which one is forced to live with for the rest of his life. Reconstructive male nose surgery can correct all such flaws.
There may be many reasons which would necessitate a nose surgery or rhinoplasty. Some of which are natural deformity, injury or even feminine appearance of the nose. In all nasal procedures, the plastic surgeon takes into account the bone density and structure of the nose as much of the result depends on these two aspects.
Corrective versus Aesthetic Nose Surgery
A corrective procedure is all about rectifying the minor or major flaws of the nose which may be causing impediments to the patient, whereas an aesthetic procedure focuses on providing a natural and at the same time, the best possible look for the nose. The fast paced advancements made in medical science have introduced safer surgical methods along with improved and superior technology. Unlike before, it is now possible to enhance the profile of the nose by way of augmentation. There may be slight irritation for a few days which can be well tolerated with medication but nothing amounting to intense pain or discomfort.

Originally written on The Penalty Flag | Last updated 11/18/14
SAN FRANCISCO - DECEMBER 14: Wide receiver Michael Crabtree #15 of the San Francisco 49ers runs with the ball after a catch against Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie #29 of the Arizona Cardinals at Candlestick Park on December 14, 2009 in San Francisco, California. (Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty Images)
With 8:08 to go in the 2nd quarter, the scoreboard read 6-0. The offense rummaged three 1st downs, yet was stonewalled on four attempts for 3rd down conversions, resulting in three punts. A 40% passing completion, 10 rushes for 52 yards, and a missed field goal jumped off of the stat sheet. Although these numbers seemed tailor-made for the Cardinals' last place offense, they belonged to the 49ers. Then, Colin Kapernick decided to lock in on his favorite receiver. Two straight deep balls to Michael Crabtree and the whole scope of the game changed from a frustration to first week bye. Crabtree took eight passes 172 yards, caught two TDs, and broke two T.O.… Read more

The Newton-Smith family from Kirkland, Wash. has done it again!Mom and dad transformed 2-year-old Cooper's toy car into Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters.
Dad Jeremy and mom Cory describe the project on their blog:
Armed with a hand-me-down Step2 push car, cardboard boxes repurposed from their recent move, spare electronics from an old vehicle, salsa cups from Mexican take-out, empty pop bottles, LEDs from the local electronics store, and some paint and tape they were well equipped... Two weeks of late nights and long weekends and Cooper s parents saw their vision come to life. They had the GB theme stuck in their heads countless times, their little Cooper can now answer the question Who you gonna call?!?! with an enthusiastic Ghostbusters!!! , and they managed to build a pretty legit Ecto-1 and fully armed mini-Ghostbuster to scare any right-minded ghosts immediately into submission.
CLICKHEREfor the full transformation and more photos on their blog.
Last Halloween, the family turned Cooper's push-car into a Delorean for a pint-sized Back to the Future get-up. The costume prompted coverage from Gizmodo and Buzzfeed, who dubbed Cooper the cutest Marty McFly of all time.
Join the costume conversation over on Facebook and Twitter.

looking for a deal on an xbox bundleHi all, looking for a deal on an xbox 4gb kinect nike+ bundle. I saw the price on Amazon and Walmart has been $250 for a while. But I don't know if that's a great deal or not. Today, I noticed Amazon bumped their price up to $299. Should I buy it from Walmart before their price goes up also? Or anyone think a better deal is coming along soon?
Martin: I am the wondrous wizard of Latin! I am a dervish of declension and a conjurer of conjugation, with a million hit points and maximum charisma.
I'm selling my PS3 and switching back to Xbox so looking for a good deal also.
I'm not finding much online. Best so far is grabbing one of the left over holiday bundles (plus my sister-in-laws Kmart employee 10% discount) for $270 ish.
Besides that just waiting for a sale in the sunday ads or a used console deal looks to be it for now.
I'd assume there will be some small price drop right after E3 or so since that is when the new consoles should be announced.

"Kampong Chhnang" Kampong Chhnang by jwrenatw
Kampong Chhnang Travel Guide: 7 reviews and 13 photos
A small port city on the Tonle Sap River and capital of the province with the same name, it is an easy bus ride and figurative world away from Phnom Penh. Our visit was short but sweet. The town itself is ok but the real attractions are the outside the city. Amazing floating villages, interesting local pottery production, beautiful scenery!
- Pros:Lovely scenery, not your typical tourist stop in Cambodia
- Cons:Tricky to catch a bus out of town!

Chase GW[ Edited ]
01-29-2013 05:08 PM - edited 01-29-2013 05:18 PM
Hi everyone,
I've been reading this forum for a while and finally decided to join now after sending my first attempt at a Chase GW letter. Just to give a little background, I used to work for Circuit City for 5 years until they went out of business. Towards the end I purchased a television on my credit card taking advantage of an 18 months no interest, no payments promo. Sounds too good to be true? It's not, those financing deals happened all the time. Of course, when I purchased the TV I was rung up at 18 months no interest....... I planned on paying the TV off in one big payment come tax time. Needless to say, I didn't make it that far, I was soon called by a collection agency saying I owed them $1600. I signed up for paperless statements with Chase so I had no idea what was going on.
The collection agency told me I could settle the account out for $1000 - I told them, the account should still be active since I had no interest, no payments. I was then told in lieu of the 18 months no interest, no payments, I could just settle for $1000............ At 23 years old having just lost my job (being that Circuit City went out of business) and completely NAIVE when it came to credit, that sounded like a good deal to me! 4 years later, it has come back to bite me in the a$$. Back in November I went to purchase a new car only to walk out of the dealership with my tail between my legs..... WHY!? Well, Chase is the only company that handles leases for this company and aren't even willing to consider me as a potential lender due to the CO \ settlement. I tell the finance manager, I've paid off two car loans for 15K each in the past 7 years, that doesn't matter, all the see is the CO.
At this point I'm fed up with Chase holding this black cloud over my head so I typed up a nice GW letter and e-mailed it right over to James Dimon's office. I got a call back the next day "Hi, this is XXXXX calling from the Chase executive office." The butterflies were going already - she told me she is in charge of my "case" then left her info with me in case I had any questions. I asked if I should be expecting a call from her, she said yes, this was on a Friday. The ensuing Tuesday I received a phone call "Hi, this is XXXXX calling from the Chase executive office. Unfortunately we have to leave accurately reporting information on your credit file." I explained the situation again, she said only if I could provide a receipt of the purchase that says 18 months, no interest, no payments would they remove it. I said, "you understand that Circuit City is no longer in business therefore I can't just walk into the store and have them reprint it." She said "well then I apologize but we have to respectfully decline your request." I responded, "well if I could find proof that Circuit City was running that promo in that time frame you could work with me?" She said "yes, although I find it unlikely being that we do not offer no interest, no payments." I explained again it was a CIRCUIT CITY CREDIT CARD, they ran these promos all the time and I was a long time employee therefore I would know this. She didn't seem to understand so we ended the phone call there. I still had her phone number and direct extension and after two minutes of research I called her right back to let her know that I found "proof". I got her voicemail, I left her a message and its been a week now with no call back.
I know I'm long winded but I feel like all of this information is relevant...... My question is for those of you with experience, am I screwed or should I keep calling her or should I send my letter (or another letter) to James Dimon's office again?
Thanks in advance for the advice!

Social Media has definitely changed the rules of dating. When meeting someone, we ask for their Instagram and Facebook pages before even asking their age or phone number. It can be a little annoying, but also kind of fun. However, with everything comes rules.
Here are a couple of rules to follow when incorporating social media into your relationships:
1. Thou shall not Facebook Stalk- A recent study in Glamour showed that the number one way to ruin a date before it even starts is…Facebook stalking. When you Facebook your date, you draw conclusions on the type of person you are going out with before you even meet them. Instead of sifting through every picture, every follower, every like and every status update, take the time to get to know the person you are going out with…by simply talking to them. Let time tell who they are…not Mark Zuckerberg. Trust us, it worked for people in the old days.
2. Thou shall not air your dirty laundry- Once you're in a committed relationship, promise yourself to keep things between you and the person you're with (and maybe a friend or three). Your social media followers do not need to know every time you get into an argument with your significant other. Screenshotting conversations and posting it online? Tacky and embarrassing for both you and your partner. Displaying negative images of your relationship does nothing but give people something to talk about. Trust us, they're screenshotting your screenshots and sending them to friends while finding joy in your misery. #KeepItToYourself
3. Thou shall not like pictures of half-naked women- Fellas, fellas, fellas. If you haven't figured it out by now, women are natural born investigators. To avoid any arguments or conversations starting with "Who is that?", avoid liking pictures of big booty women in bikinis. We see when and whose picture you like, so to ignore THAT argument, just admire quietly from a distance.
4.Thou shall not put up inappropriate pictures of yourself-Ladies, ladies, ladies. Before posting a provocative pic of yourself, consider this- if your boyfriend posted a picture of his goods online, you probably would go crazy and break up with him. It's pretty much the same thing. Don't post anything with too much cleavage, cheeks hanging out of your shorts, and unless it's a far shot of you on the beach…try to stay away from the bikini pics too. When your boyfriend sees that picture along with hundreds of likes and comments from random men online, it'll cause a WORLD of trouble. #DontDoIt
5. Thou shall not use the Facebook relationship status button freely. When you get into an argument with your partner, the world does not need to know that you repeatedly break up/make up or are in the "it's complicated" phase. Do yourself a favor and keep your relationship status changes between you and your partner or consider hiding the status altogether on your profile. That way if you do change it often- no one will know about the roller coaster ride but you and your boyfriend/girlfriend.
6.Thou shall not document every little thing you do as a couple. The world does not need to know that your boyfriend bought you a bagel for breakfast and that you then went to the movies….and then for a walk in the park. TMI!! People like cute photos but all those details are unnecessary. NO ONE cares! Plus, if you guys break up or one of you is caught cheating and the public knows, you'll look and feel stupid. Everyone will know he or she was your whole world and in the end you got played…badly. It also looks silly when you go back and delete a hundred pictures of them. Let people guess what your relationship is like. Random cute photos from couples that never post pics are WAY cuter than the ones who post them everyday. Trust us.
It's definitely possible to have a great relationship and share that on your social media pages. But keep in mind, some things (especially relationships) should be handled carefully and with caution. Try to focus more on building a good relationship with your partner and less on posting about it online.

RJR President Lynn Beasley Will Retire Jan. 1
By Richard Craver, Winston-Salem Journal, N.C.
Dec. 1–Lynn Beasley, the president of R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. and the architect of the controversial Joe Camel marketing campaign, said yesterday that she plans to retire Jan. 1.
Beasley, 49, is the highest-ranking official left from the RJR team that bought Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp. in 2004 to create Reynolds American Inc.
She will be replaced by Daniel Delen, 41, who has been the president of British American Tobacco Ltd. in Japan since August 2004 and with the company for 17 years. Delen's hiring is another indication of how Susan Ivey, the chairwoman and chief executive of Reynolds American, is recasting the company toward a more youthful, risk-taking culture, analysts said.
Analysts credit Beasley with playing a significant management and marketing role with Reynolds during her 25-year career, which she began as a marketing assistant in 1982 and served as a senior brand manager for several years.
Rob Campagnino, a senior tobacco analyst with Prudential Securities, said in a 2002 interview with the Winston-Salem Journal that Beasley is "a tremendous asset" to Reynolds.
Beasley made her reputation in the industry when she turned around Camel in the late 1980s with the Joe Camel ads that eventually were banned in the 1999 Master Settlement Agreement.
In January 2002, Beasley was promoted to president of Reynolds Tobacco, taking over the day-to-day operations and serving as the right-hand woman to Andrew Schindler, Reynolds' chairman and chief executive at the time. In 2003, Beasley played a lead role in the decision to put Reynolds' marketing focus on Camel, and later Kool, over other brands.
Beasley retires as the second-highest paid executive at Reynolds. She made more than $2.4 million in salary, bonus and other compensation in 2005.
Beasley said in a statement that her 25 years with the company "have been both exhilarating and challenging."
"I've been afforded the opportunity for tremendous personal and professional growth at R.J. Reynolds and have enjoyed working with my extraordinarily dedicated and talented colleagues," she said. "At this point in my life, I'm looking forward to spending more time with friends and family."
Reynolds declined to make Beasley and Delen available for interviews.
"Lynn's 25-year career with R.J. Reynolds has been nothing short of extraordinary," Ivey said in a statement. "Her many contributions to R.J. Reynolds will continue to impact the company's performance for years to come." Ivey praised Delen's "broad and deep experience in the global tobacco industry."
"His past experience in the U.S. market will bring valuable insight and expertise to the business from day one," Ivey said.
R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Holdings Inc. bought Brown & Williamson from British American Tobacco PLC for $4.4 billion in July 2004. Ivey and Delen worked together at British American Tobacco.
"When you are merging two distinct cultures, the culture preferred by the new company's chief executive is usually the one that eventually prevails," said Peter Tourtellot, the managing director of Anderson Bauman Tourtellot Vos & Co., a turnaround-management and consulting company with an office in Greensboro.
"There could have been a philosophical difference between Ivey and Beasley regarding the future direction of the company. It is unusual for a key officer at a public company to step down and there not being an announcement of the decision to leave prior to the naming of their successor."
The switch of president at R.J. Reynolds Tobacco is understandable given that most chief executives want their own people in key roles, said Greg Warren, an analyst at Morningstar, a stock and mutual-fund research company in Chicago.
"This is not a shocker for that reason," Warren said.
Beasley has said that the Joe Camel campaign was a defining moment of her marketing career at Reynolds.
During testimony in a legal case involving Philip Morris USA, Beasley said she came up with the idea for Joe Camel to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the debut of Camel cigarettes. The idea came from a cartoon poster of a camel's face that had been used in France in the mid-1970s.
"When that was shown to adult smokers, they just, like, loved it," Beasley said in her testimony. "They lit up. They said, 'Hey, this is fun, it's entertaining, this is what you should use.' "And, you know, it's one of those things that when you're in marketing, it happens, like, once every several years when everybody in the room goes 'I like this, I really like it.' And it was one of those moments that just — it's really great."
But the Joe Camel campaign proved to be a magnet for anti-smoking groups, which said that the advertising was aimed at attracting underage smokers at a time when cigarette sales were declining industrywide.
"Joe Camel was one of the most effective product campaigns aimed at kids, and not just cigarettes," said Vince Willmore, a vice president of communications for the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. "It's the reason why youth smoking skyrocketed in the 1990s."
Reynolds said at the time, and does now, that it has never marketed its cigarettes to underage smokers.
Gayle Anderson, the president of the Greater Winston-Salem Chamber of Commerce, said she doubts that Beasley will remain idle long.
"Her job was certainly time-consuming and draining given the travel requirements and the day-to-day challenges of running a company like Reynolds, so it's not surprising to hear that she's retiring," Anderson said.

I was just wondering if i ever wanted so sell a physically printed product from my website which used graphics i sell on Graphicriver / Photodune etc could i still keep the Selling Exclusively status?
On the Knowledgebase it says this -
"As an Author on the Envato Marketplaces you are eligible to receive between 50% and 70% of every sale should you choose to sell only items that are not sold elsewhere. Being an exclusive author simply means that any items you sell on an Envato Marketplace are unique to our libraries."
But is that regarding digital items only? If it was a graphic printed on a T-shirt for example that is not really competition to Envato. In my opinion people should be able to do this and keep Selling Exclusively and figured i should ask since i cannot find this information anywhere.
Hmmm, Interesting questions.
I think since you are selling a T-Shirt which is not for sell on Envato marketplace because nothing is physical in here so you should have no problem doing so.
I have flagged it for staff reply.
That question just came up recently http://videohive.net/forums/thread/can-i-use-my-own-items-on-tshirts-for-sale-at-pod-sites/74870
Hope that helps.
Yes that helps a lot thanks, seems it should be ok then if i ever choose to do this.

There's a new trend sweeping Hollywood and it's called, let's hate on Justin Bieber.
"SNL" star Bill Hader is the latest celeb to trash talk Bieber, joining an elite list of individuals who have publicly dissed Bieber recently.
1. Bill Hader
The former "Saturday Night Live" performer remembered when Bieber hosted an episode of the comedy sketch show, he arrived on set with a huge entourage.
Bill told Howard Stern on Sirius XM: "Justin Bieber showed up with like 20 guys. He had a guy holding a slice of pizza. A guy holding a Diet Coke. You're trying to fight through all these people to get dressed."
2. Drake Bell
Drake just hates Bieber to his core. He's always Twitter-attacking him with jabs like these:
"Justin Bieber is 5'6" now I understand why you guys love him!! He's the same height as all you 12 year olds! I totally get it now sorry guys"
"How does Justin get his lips so shiny?" pic.twitter.com/crelaYkS7T
"'Before I try to beat up the paparazzi I make sure my mascara is perfect!' -Justin Bieber" pic.twitter.com/kMQUowudOt
3. Selena Gomez
Even though they might be back together, right after their breakup, Selena went on "Letterman" to talk about how she made Bieber cry.
"Now, the last time [Bieber] was on," Letterman told Selena, "He and I got into a conversation and he said something, then I said something, and he said something, then I said something and I made him cry." "Well then, that makes two of us," Gomez replied smartly.
4. Chloe Moretz
Chloe didn't necessarily bash Bieber, but she supported Selena's diss, so that counts.
"@selenagomez made the best letterman comment, I dieddd," she wrote.
5. Eminem
Eminem literally calls Bieber the anti-Christ in a song.
"Him don't give a damn about Bieber, do Him? / What a demon, a behemoth, evil just seems to be seeping through him," he raps.
6. Billy Joe
Billy Joe, the frontman of Green Day, lost his mind at a concert once and decided to bring up Bieber during his meltdown.
"I'm not f------ Justin Bieber, you motherf------!" Billy Joe screamed in an onstage rant.
7. Jon Bon Jovi
Jon Bon Jovi recently told Bieber to stop showing up late to concerts and being a prick, saying, "Do it once, you can be forgiven... Do it enough times and shame on you. They won't have you back. Then it just becomes a cliché. It's really not cool—you're an a--hole."
8. Olivia Wilde
Olivia Wilde never wants to see Bieber without his shirt on. Ever.
"Bieber, put your f--king shirt on. (unless you lost all your shirts in a fire in which case my condolences and please purchase a new shirt)," she wrote on Twitter.
9. The Black Keys' Patrick Carney
The Black Keys drummer, Patrick Carney was glad Bieber didn't get any Grammy nods this year. When asked if Bieber SHOULD have gotten a nomination, Patrick said, "He's rich right? The Grammys are...for music and not for money. And he's making a lot of money. He should be happy, I guess."
10. Taylor Swift
When asked what she thought about Selena and Justin hooking up again, she told a reporter "you don't want to open that can of worms."
She also rolled her eyes and made a "yuck" face at the Billboard Music Awards when Selena momentarily ditched Tay Tay to say hi to Bieber. Then after the awards show, when someone asked what she thought about Bieber winning the Milestone Award she replied like a total ice queen, "can we have another question?"

Joseph Rotblat's Archive: Some Anomalies and Difficulties
Professor Sir Joseph Rotblat was a distinguished scientist who made significant contributions to nuclear physics, worked on the development of the atomic bomb (he was the only scientist to leave the Manhattan Project where these weapons of mass destruction were being developed) and was suspected of being a soviet spy. Rotblat was appalled when nuclear weapons were used on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, although he did work, albeit for a short time, on their development and in his view with little impact. Instead he dedicated himself to the medical uses of nuclear physics and radiation, taking up the post of Professor of Physics (as applied to medicine) at St. Bartholomew's Medical College and made major contributions to this field, becoming one of the world's leading researchers into the biological effects of radiation. Rotblat was to develop the view that scientists were responsible for the consequences of their work and scientific research should be for the benefit of humanity, a driving principle in his life and work being that scientists cannot dissociate themselves from the consequences of their work, however difficult to predict.
Joseph Rotblat worked at the University of Warsaw, discovering inelastic neutron scattering. He was invited in 1939 to work at Liverpool University with James Chadwick. Towards the end of 1939 Rotblat began experiments in Liverpool which demonstrated that the nuclear bomb was feasible. At the beginning of 1944 Rotblat joined the Chadwick group at Los Alamos, New Mexico to work on the Manhattan Project, which was developing the atomic bomb. At the end of 1944 he resigned and returned to England.1
In this paper I describe some new findings that will lead to a reappraisal of some aspects of his life and work. This has become possible as a consequence of funding from The Friends of The Center For The History of Physics at AIP, allowing me to consult Rotblat's Archive that is now becoming available, housed in the Churchill Archives Centre, Churchill College, University of Cambridge. Many insights and anomalies have already been uncovered and in this short summary I describe some of the findings, to date.
The Manhattan Project
In his seminal paper 'Leaving the Bomb', Rotblat says 'And so, on Christmas Eve 1944, I sailed for the United Kingdom....I packed all (emphasis is mine) my documents-research notes as well as correspondence and other records in a box....Chadwick personally helped me put the box on the train to New York. But when I arrived there a few hours later, the box was missing. Nor, despite valiant efforts, was it ever recovered.'2
The Archive contains, much to my surprise, a considerable body of papers from Rotblat's time at Los Alamos. In summary, these papers contain:
Plan of an experiment to determine the capture cross-section of 235U3
1. A method for neutron energy measurements4
2. Notes on an experiments to determine some nuclear constants3
3. Monthly report5
The discovery of these papers is a significant finding as it is totally at odds with Rotblat's account of events. It could be that Rotblat was simply mistaken, reporting over 40 years after the events, the papers could have been removed by someone else, possibly Chadwick, but this is only speculation. This contradiction will be the subject of future work.
St. Bartholomew's Medical College
Following his return to Liverpool University in late 1944, Rotblat started to change the direction of his research activities. Perhaps, in part, as a reaction to the horrors of the use of the atom bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, he became involved in the medical uses of radioisotopes and radiation in diagnosis and treatment. This culminated in his accepting the post of Professor of Physics (as applied to medicine) St. Bartholomew's Medical College, London University. The hospital housed a 15 MeV linear accelerator, used for treatment that was employed for research when not being utilised for clinical purposes. Rotblat, however, wanted an accelerator devoted solely for research. He succeeded and a full assessment of the performance of this machine can now be made from papers contained in the Archive.6
An order was placed with Vickers in May 1961, and delivered to site in July 1963 and assembled by December of that year. The specification called for a 5 micro-second pulse at 100 pulses per second. Vickers carried out trials during 1964 and obtained a pulse length of 1.7 micro-seconds at full power. A new wave guide was fitted in 1965 and Vickers claimed a beam of electrons at an energy of 14.6 MeV and a current of 750 mA. St. Bartholomew's staff measured the energy to be 11.8 MeV. In October 1965 it was agreed that an independent measurement should be sought and Barts agreed to take the machine if it performed within 10% of the specification. Independent assessors from the Rutherford Laboratory were appointed and carried out energy measurements in June 1966, after a new klystron was fitted. The energy was measured at 13.5 MeV at a current of 750 mA which was just within the agreed acceptance limits.
The machine was subject to frequent breakdowns and not fit for day to day running and research. Bart's wanted a complete independent assessment of the machine but Vickers refused. In 1967 the S.R.C. were brought in for a final arbitration and the Rutherford Laboratory recommended acceptance of the machine in March 1968. However, some months later the klystron burnt out and a replacement was purchased with an S.R.C. grant. Various attempts were made to run the machine from July 1968 to March 1969 which failed due, largely, to arcing in the waveguides. In March 1969 the klystron burnt out again after only 485 hours of operation. A new klystron was eventually purchased from hospital funds but funding ceased in September 1976. Some student-based research work was undertaken, but the machine was not a success.
The Vickers 15 MeV linear accelerator installed in St. Bartholomew's Medical College in 1963 was plagued with problems from the outset. Independent assessors were appointed to review the machine, but Bart's agreed, it can be argued, an acceptance criterion that was not stringent enough. When Barts wanted additional outside, independent opinions as to the performance of the machine, Vickers were not pressed hard enough to agree to this. At one point, Thompson-Varian did not honor the guarantee covering the performance of the klystron and hospital funds were used to purchase a replacement. The manufacturer claimed that the klystron was running at too high a current and therefore out of specification. There is no evidence in the Archive of these claims being challenged. Project management was simply not careful and tight enough. Norman Kember, who succeeded Rotblat as Head of the Academic Department in St. Bartholomew's Medical College (and later appointed Professor) said in relation to this machine and Joseph Rotblat, that 'great men are allowed to make great mistakes'7 and only one research paper was produced.
I am very grateful for the help provided by the staff of The Churchill Archives Centre, Churchill College, Cambridge University and the Listening Service Team of The British Library Sound Archive. I very much thank The Friends of The Center for The History of Physics, The American Institute of Physics for financial support. I would also like to acknowledge and thank Professor Robin Devenish of The Sub-Dept. of Particle Physics, Dept. of Physics, University of Oxford and Professor John Forrester of The Dept. of The History and Philosophy of Science, University of Cambridge for allowing me access to their respective Departments.

Not that there isn't one: The Failure revolves around a Korean check-chasing robbery that goes horribly wrong and more or less kills off the main character, Guy Forget, on the first page. Luckily, winking chapter heds—"The Villain Sven Transvoort, still in his undisclosed location, talks about Guy's background, and makes broad, mostly nonsensical generalizations about culture"—navigate us forward and backward through time. A YouTube viral video involving Guy's buddy getting mauled by a mountain lion, a "Web 3.0" subliminal advertising application codenamed "Pandemonium," and opium all feature in the plot, such as it is, but Greer is after bigger questions than who ultimately got his main character killed. (Hint: It's the guy with "Villain" in front of his name.)
Guy is that perfect punk existentialist, able to see through everything while at the same time having no earthly clue what that skill might gain him. "Someday I will follow through," is his motto. "I just don't know with what, exactly." Credit Greer for making him the hero anyway.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
On the heels of his promising 1994 indie debut Fresh, Boaz Yakin delivered a hatefully stacked deck against Orthodox Jewry with A Price Above Rubies (1998). Then he went to Hollywood, and, by his own self-lacerating account, sold out. As it turns out, the workmanlike Uptown Girls and Remember the Titans were masterpieces of cinema compared with this misbegotten retreat into self-financed auteurism. Not since Liliana Cavani's epically stupid The Night Porter has a filmmaker so wantonly ripped off the Holocaust for the unsavory purpose of strutting his unprocessed sadomasochistic fantasies. Yakin is a slick director of actors, which means that Jacqueline Bisset and Josh Lucas are disconcertingly good as a New York Jewish mother destroyed by a long-ago concentration camp affair with a Nazi doctor, and the charming but feckless son poisoned by her baleful influence. Masquerading as brave provocation, Death in Love is an incoherent stew of twisted sex, diabolical surgery, existential despair, and oedipal rage, punctured by feeble excursions into genre with the absurd arrival of an elderly stranger given to throwing men off tall buildings. Someday, a wise and potent film will be made about the Holocaust's legacy on succeeding generations. Posing as a study in evil, Death in Love is claptrap that confuses bile with art.

From the Publisher"...Filonowicz marshals an impressively wide range of reading to support his arguments. He has a deep knowledge of relevant historical sources and the accompanying secondary literature. He is generous with intellectual credit, noting antecedents of his arguments in the work of, inter alia, Iris Murdoch and Lawrence Blum (but, crucially, without their sympathies towards moral realism). Any book that seeks to expose moral philosophy to that which, following Henry Miller, the author calls 'the open streets' of Brooklyn is a departure from the usual style of works on meta-ethics and is all the better for it. The author is to be commended for trying to open up contemporary meta-ethics to some distinctive and, in some respects, neglected options from the ethical reflection of the past."
- ALAN THOMAS, Analysis Reviews, Volume 69
"...a refreshingly well-written and wide ranging volume with much to offer philosophers and others interested in the history of ethics."
