Tom Brown
Tom Brown was one of the all-time greatest offensive and defensive linemen ever to wear the Maroon and Gold. The Minneapolis Central High School graduate made his mark by winning the coveted Outland Trophy in 1960, recognizing him as the best lineman in the country. Coach Murray Warmath compared him to a "rolling boulder" for his unique ability to open holes for the Gopher ball carriers. In 1960, his senior year, the Gophers tied for the Big Ten title, were voted national champions and went to the Rose Bowl. The defensive unit, led by the "Rock of Gibraltar," allowed only 88 points that entire season. Brown's Herculean strength was legendary, and his ability to blast holes in opposing defensive lines made him an easy pick for the Big Ten MVP. In addition, he was also named as a first-team All-American, and even finished as runner-up in the Heisman Trophy voting - the closest a lineman has ever come to winning the award. "Brownie," who also starred on the track team as a shot-putter and discus thrower, went on to get drafted by the NFL's Baltimore Colts as well as the British Columbia Lions in the Canadian Football League. Brown chose the latter and in 1964 he led the Lions to the Grey Cup championship where he was named the team's MVP. He would win one more Grey Cup during his tenure in B.C. before having to retire permanently due to a neck injury in 1967. Brown was later inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2003.

Q. An employee called me and told me he wasn't coming to work because he has bronchitis. I told the rest of the department why the employee is absent. Did I violate HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act)? — Jes, Maryland
A. No. First, most employers are not a "covered entity" under HIPAA. Health insurance companies and doctors' offices, for example, need to get individuals' authorization before releasing medical information under HIPAA. Second, the information is not "protected health information"—you did not receive the information from a covered entity. If you learned of the employee's condition through the health plan, then it would be protected health information.

text: My three boys (ages 6-10) enjoyed climbing the rocks at Pioneer Park more than any of the National Parks in the area! It was a great quick stop and they could've been happy for much longer. In October the weather was great but would be crazy hot in summer with no shade. Also there was broken glass all over much of the park and steep cliffs, so kids need to be supervised closely.

A 22-year-old woman suffered life threatening injuries after being struck by a streetcar at St. Clair Ave. W. and Dufferin St., Monday afternoon.
The woman was crossing St. Clair Ave. W. at about 4:15 p.m. when she was almost hit by an eastbound vehicle, said traffic services Const. Clint Stibbe.
She continued into the eastbound streetcar right-of-way and was hit by a streetcar, Stibbe said.
The woman was rushed to hospital with "multisystem trauma," according to Emergency Medical Services.
Streetcar service has been suspended on St. Clair Ave. W. between Lansdowne and Oakwood Aves. since about 4:20 p.m., the TTC says.
Shuttle buses are operating until service returns. Streetcars in the area of the crash have had an exclusive right-of-way since 2009. St. Clair Ave. W. is closed indefinitely to all traffic between Dufferin St. and Via Italia while police investigate.

Men rescued from squalid forced labour camp refuse to help police
Jerome Taylor
Jerome Taylor first came to The Independent in 2005 and joined the Foreign Desk. He is now a news reporter and the paper's Religious Affairs Correspondent.
Tuesday 13 September 2011
Nine "modern day slaves" who were freed by police following a dawn raid on a Traveller site over the weekend have refused to co-operate with the investigation as detectives continue to unravel what they believe is one of the worst cases of forced labour in modern British history.
Bedfordshire police insist that they have dismantled a slavery ring operated by a "family-run organised crime" syndicate that forced vulnerable men to live in appalling conditions for little or no pay.
Four men, all from the same family of Travellers, were charged yesterday with slavery offences relating to four people found at the site in Bedfordshire.
Officers swooped on the Green Acres Caravan Park in Leighton Buzzard in the early hours of Sunday morning after months of undercover surveillance work sparked by a tip-off. They expected to find eight people but were instead confronted by 24 British and eastern European men living in filthy buildings ranging from dog kennels to sheds and horse boxes.
Detectives say gang masters targeted the men at soup kitchens, job centres and benefit offices with the promise of work but instead subjected them to a gruelling work regimen, shaving their heads on arrival and forcing them to labour for more than 12 hours a day for minimal wages. The youngest of those rescued is a 17-year-old boy who has been returned to his parents. At least one of those forced to work at the camp had been living there for 15 years.
But in an indication of how many of the men have been institutionalised by their conditions, Bedfordshire police yesterday admitted that nine of those rescued have declined to co-operate with the investigation. One of the men even returned to the Traveller site yesterday insisting that he had been happy to work there and that the police raid had been "heavy handed".
Experts working to combat slavery said it was often common for victims to empathise with their abusers. "We can't prejudge what has happened here," said Paul Donohoe, of Anti-Slavery International. "But you do find sometimes that institutionalisation... creates a situation where captives psychologically identify with their captors."
Initial reports suggested that police had been warned 28 previous times that captives were being held at the site. Yesterday officers stressed that such information had been a misunderstanding. Instead, they said, the investigation was sparked after captives escaped in April and told them that 28 people were still being held as slaves.
Officers yesterday said the remaining 15 men who were rescued were still being assessed at a medical centre. Some of those saved are so badly malnourished that a full meal could prove fatal until their bodies adapt.
Four men arrested during the raid were still being questioned last night while a heavily pregnant woman was released on bail. Officers are still trying to track down two more men.
The raid was one of the first of its kind to use new anti-slavery legislation. Until last year, police forces had to use human trafficking legislation, which was often difficult to prove.
The men arrested have been detained on suspicion of slavery and servitude offences under section 71 of the Coroners and Injustice Act. The maximum penalties for such offences range from seven to 14 years in jail.
Baroness Young, who tabled the amendment that brought in the new legislation, said the raid was proof that the police are starting to be proactive about slavery: "This is the first time the new legislation has been used in such a visible way. In an ideal world it wouldn't need to be used at all but sadly slavery is real and occurs in the UK."
Travellers groups have expressed concerns that the arrests, carried out in front of television cameras, will lead to a backlash against their community.
Slavery and the law
* Although slavery was banned in Britain 200 years ago it was only in April 2010 that a specific criminal offence was brought in making it illegal to hold another person in servitude.
* Until then, police were forced to use existing legislation such as false imprisonment and human trafficking to seek convictions.
* Ministers insisted that the current legislation was adequate but human rights groups and unions lobbied for change.
* An amendment to the Coroners and Justice Bill brought in two new offences – holding someone in servitude within their home (punishable by up to 14 years in prison) and forcing someone to work against their will (seven years in prison).

Economy: Why do we seem so helpless in solving our current mess? A big reason is the shocking lack of basic economic literacy among many of our political leaders. Case in point: Ohio Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown.
Brown ripped into GOP Rep. Eric Cantor, saying he "either failed English class or failed logic class or failed history class because these tax cuts for the rich that Bush did twice ... resulted in very little economic growth. We saw only 1 million jobs created in the Bush years, 22 million created in the Clinton years, when we reached a balanced budget with a fairer tax system."
This is false. From 2002, the last year before the cuts, to 2007, the last year before the financial meltdown, the real economy expanded by $1.77 trillion, or 15.2%. "Very little" growth? Jobs increased by 7.77 million, business investment surged 38%, and personal net worth soared 56%. Brown is wrong on every point.
Yes, gross domestic product did fall sharply in 2008 as the financial meltdown hit. But no reputable economist maintains the financial panic was a result of the Bush tax cuts.
Laughably, Brown talks about how "we" reached a balanced budget during the Clinton years. What do you mean "we," senator? Since budgets are written and passed by Congress, and only approved by the president, Brown must know that it was Republicans who balanced the budget — not Democrats.
That's right, a GOP-led Congress controlled the spending that led to the surpluses of the late 1990s. It also proposed welfare reform and pushed through cap-gains tax cuts that helped the economy boom. To his credit, President Clinton signed these initiatives into law — but only after much political arm-twisting.
Brown's idea of "fair" when it comes to taxes is strange. Since when is unequal treatment under the law, which our skewed tax code promotes, considered fair? Talk about failing Logic 101.
He went on to say: "There is no real history illustrating that these tax cuts for the rich result in jobs. It's extending unemployment benefits that creates economic activity that creates jobs, not giving a millionaire an extra ... $30,000 in tax cuts they likely won't spend."
"No real history"? Taxes were cut on high-income earners in the 1920s (Coolidge), 1960s (Kennedy), 1980s (Reagan) and again in the 2000s (Bush). These cuts benefited the rich and everyone else. In all these cases, jobs boomed after tax cuts. In fact, history shows that the best way to boost jobs is to cut taxes on the rich.

- //The Call
Robert Levon Been of Black Rebel Motorcycle Club recently got a privilege that few musicians ever get: to pay tribute to his family's recording legacy by performing the tunes himself. Been's father, Michael Been, was part of the Call, a band who in an eight-year stretch recorded seven LPs—an impressive run by any metric.
Following that hot streak in the '80's, the band released a final album, 1997's Heaven & Back, following a seven-year hiatus. The group disbanded after that release, and Michael would later go on to serve as sound engineer for the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. He died in 2010 while backstage at a festival with his son's band.
Been and the remaining members of the Call gave Michael a hell of a tribute with their live performance, which was filmed and recorded for a proper live album release.
Jim Gordon, keyboardist and vocalist for the Call, describes the experience to PopMatters: "After 25 years, I had no idea what we would sound like, and no way of knowing how Robert would change the music. Watching the film now, I can't believe that it all sounds so much like it did with Michael and that the lyrics are as relevant as ever—maybe more so."
Watch the video of "I Still Believe" below.
The Call Live Tribute with Robert Levon Been will be released on CD and DVD on September 2nd through Label/Lightyear/Caroline.

Close your eyes, breathe in deeply, now exhale slowly… That was easy, wasn't it? Not for everyone…
Yes. His support for Israel would certainly sway my vote, but in general he has built a good reputation for himself. He has a strong track record and has shown himself to be a man of his word.
– Berko Shtaynberger, systems analyst
Yes. I have always been a Giuliani supporter. He is pro-Jewish, pro-working class, and a supporter of the people. In contrast to Hillary Clinton, who kissed Arafat's wife, Giuliani kicked Arafat out of a UN event at Lincoln Center. As a Holocaust survivor, I admire the man and appreciate his support for the Jewish people.
–Rachel Abramowitz, retired
Yes. I am more inclined to vote for him because of his views on Israel. While none of the candidates are anti-Israel, Giuliani happens to be more outspoken about his support than the others. A president's stand on Israel is very important to me as a voter and to the Jewish community. Israel is a strong ally of America and it's a good idea for that to be reflected in our foreign policy.
–Brian Katz, teacher
Yes. He stands out among the other candidates as being more pro-Israel, and for me this is a very important issue. I don't support an isolationist policy; we need to make sure Israel is protected and taken care of since the events that transpire there will eventually affect us here. And we have an obligation as Jews to make sure the evil that happened in the past doesn't happen again; this applies to helping Israel as well as combating atrocities in other countries.
–Daniella Allan, dentist

We studied his seforim together, we listened to famous cantorial masters and we spoke of his illustrious yichus, his pedigree, dating back to the famous commentator, Rashi.
Jews who were considered, but not ultimately selected, include Woody Allen, Saul Bellow, David Ben-Gurion, Marc Chagall, Anne Frank, and Barbra Streisand.
Cantor Moti Boyer came from the East Coast to support the event.
Personally I wish that I had a mother like my wife.
What's the difference between the first and second ten-year-old?
What makes this diary so historically significant is that it is not just the private memoir of Dr. Seidman. Rather, it is a reflection of the suffering of Klal Yisrael at that time.
Rabbi Lau is a world class speaker. When he relates stories, even concentration camp stories, the audience is mesmerized. As we would soon discover, he is in the movie as well.
Each essay, some adapted from lectures Furst prepared for live audiences, begins with several basic questions around a key topic.
For the last several years, four Jewish schools in the Baltimore Jewish community have been expelling students who have not received their vaccinations.
"We can't wait for session II to begin" said camp director Mrs. Judy Neufeld.
Wouldn't it be great if you had a chavrusa working with you, guiding and helping you in your work environment?
In a time when service to one's community seems to be a forgotten ideal, it is our pleasure to continue sharing with you the stories of those men and women who were willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.
The Jewish Press recently sat down with Chaya Lipschutz, a Brooklyn woman who saved the life of a stranger.
In the past, people used to turn to coffee or orange juice to get through a midday slump, but today, many are turning to power and energy drinks for a quicker and longer-lasting jolt. The power drink industry is booming with projected sales of $9 billion and no sign of slowing down anytime soon.
Every week nearly three million viewers tune into the Bravo cable channel to watch the hit reality franchise "The Real Housewives" – several shows that follow the lives of affluent housewives and professional women residing in several American metropolitan areas ("The Real Housewives of New York," "The Real Housewives of Los Angeles," of Miami, of Atlanta, etc.).
Not too many Jewish World War II survivors from Germany can say that they had the distinction of being both interned in a concentration camp and liberating the captives in that same camp. Erwin Weinberg did just that.
Recently I had the opportunity to spend some times with Bernard (Bernie) Walz and get a glimpse of his war experiences.
As I approached the home of Irving and Miriam Borenstein in the Mill Basin section of Brooklyn, two things became clear: the pride they feel at being Jewish and their joy at living in America. On their front lawn are large American and Israeli flags with a plaque in front which reads:
Never forget the six million murdered in the Holocaust and the three thousand murdered on 9/11.
May G-d remember them for the good with the other righteous of the world.

Jenetics: Java Genetic Algorithm Library
[The source code has been migrated and is now hosted on Github: https://github.com/jenetics/jenetics] Jenetics is an Genetic Algorithm, respectively an Evolutionary Algorithm, library written in Java. It is designed with a clear separation of the several concepts of the algorithm, e.g. Gene, Chromosome, Genotype, Phenotype, Population and fitness Function. Jenetics allows you to minimize and maximize the given fitness function without tweaking it. In contrast to other GA implementations, the library uses the concept of an evolution stream (EvolutionStream) for executing the evolution steps. Since the EvolutionStream implements the Java Stream interface, it works smoothly with the rest of the Java Stream API.

Great fish and chips in a cool atmosphere. The service was good.... Would recommend this place. It is a little off the main drag or tourist area.
This place is fake. The food is of low quality. The server didn't know anything about the menu. The food is way overpriced. Oyster shooters are nearly twice as much as other restaurants in the area. The Reuben is full of grease and fake butter. The wings were soggy and tasted like low quality chicken. The sausages were cold and...
Our waitress didn't even know what kind of sausage she had just served us, got our order wrong, and the food was far too greasy and entirely too expensive for the quality. I would not recommend anyone to eat here. I literally feel sick after this lunch.
Gallagher's was a quiet little pub just one block from the ticket office for the ferry. We enjoyed a much needed Guinness along with fish and chips and shepherd's pie. The service was quick and friendly. It would have been nice had they played a bit of Irish music instead of Spanish guitar.
Good looks, good atmosphere and great drink. I left something important on table when I left and it was turned in at front desk. Can't ask for more than that.
Lots of potential in a historic building but more of a seedy neighborhood bar. We have been in Irish pubs around the world and don't expect fine dining or romantic ambiance but this place is a dump. The rust molecules are barely holding the fixtures together in the restrooms so god knows what is going on in the kitchen. The...
We came in right at closing. Kelly, one of the owners, was super nice and let us in. Evan the waiter was awesome, too. He recommended the fish & chips with the fresh halibut. We ordered that and the portobello mushroom burger. Both were amazing! We will go back, and we will bring friends with us! Highly recommend.
Went here with a large (8 person) business group for dinner. We walked in as the musicians were setting up. I thought, Uh-oh, we won't be able to hear ourselves over the sound, but the two-piece combo (playing Irish music) was quite nice and not at all loud.
Our waitress was prompt and accomodating, saw that we had water and...

Global land/ocean surface temperature anomalies for June 2013
June 2013 was the second warmest June on record globally for land/ocean combined surface temperature, according to NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS).
June 2013 averaged 0.67 degrees Celsius (1.21 F.) above the 1951-1980 base period average, according to GISS.
The warmest June on record was +0.74 C. back in 1998, which by the way was at the end of a strong El Nino, which typically has an overall warming influence on the globe. Currently, we are experiencing near-neutral ENSO conditions (neither an EL Nino or La Nina).
The GISS image below shows the June 2013 surface temperature anomalies for the northern and southern Hemispheres.
As you can see, the highest temperature anomalies (red) were over NW Canada, northern Europe and over parts of Antarctica.
What is the scientific method? What does the peer-reviewed process involve?
Greenland's glaciers that flow into the ocean are grounded deeper below the surface of the ocean than previously thought, which could mean an even greater sea level rise than current estimates.
Update on atmospheric CO2, mountain glacier retreat, extreme temperatures and fires.
For the fourth time this year, a new, global record high monthly temperature has been set.
The annual State of the Climate report for 2014 has been released.
Extra heat that has been trapped by greenhouse gases was absorbed by the Pacific and Indian Oceans over the past decade.

Lil' Nellie All Growed Up
Last week, Tom Hicks re-signed wonderboy Jon Daniels to run the Ranger's sinking (though surprisingly more buoyant of late) ship through 2009, even though the team has one of the worst records in baseball and Daniels hasn't made one move that's made sense since he became the GM, other than bringing back Sammy Sosa, which was just dumb luck. We could go on, but Richie Whitt does a much better job deconstructing Hick's bizarre re-signing of Daniels in this week's column, which hits newsstands later this morning.
Maybe Daniels could learn something from Mavs GM Donnie Nelson, who SI.com has ranked as the second-best personnel man in the NBA, right behind R.C. Buford in San Antonio, and ain't that a kick in the nuts, Mavs fan?
Says SI.com's Kelly Dwyer: "Whether working side-by-side with his father -- former Mavericks coach Don Nelson -- or setting up the defensive-minded, new-age Mavs for Avery Johnson, the younger Nellie has refused to let conventional wisdom taint his personnel decisions."
Sure, letting Nash go may have been a mistake, but at the time, Nash was coming off a lousy playoff performance against the Kings in '04, and pretty much anybody (not named Isiah Thomas) would have blanched "at the idea of handing the then 30-year-old Nash a six-year, $63 million deal." And it ain't been all bad since. As Dwyer notes, "the Mavs have won an average of 62 games in each of the three seasons since his defection."
So what's it all mean? "A minor tweak or three should have the Mavs right back in the finals," writes Dwyer. "And who better to make those changes than Nelson, who appears to boast the perfect mix of adaptive qualities and fearlessness."
Jon Daniels he ain't. --Jesse Hyde

Breitbart is Dee Ay Eye Dee Dead. Why does he keep popping up?
I sometimes go over to FOX NEWS just for laughs. Here is the first line of the leading story on the passing of the Fiscal cliff deal. "Obama says he will sign bill after House approves Senate legislation halting massive tax hikes and delaying spending cuts in a 257-167 vote, despite some House Republicans' concerns."
I love it! "despite some House Republicans concerns"
Except that those same Republicans would have thrown the US back into the same recession that we had in 2008-2009. The Republican vote was 151 "NO", and 85 "YES"!
And FOX says "concerns", and that is funnier that any cartoon on this site!!
They can only sell that junk because a certain amount of the public buys into it.
If its free then quality obviously doesn´t matter…
Mr Wuerker shows us the great benefits of free markets. People no longer have to pay for stuff they don't want like newspapers, journalists, or real fact checkers, they can spend all their money as they choose, on side shows, so everyone is happier and better off.
If 20% can't afford any bread or circuses and are dying of malnutrition, it's not a problem as long as the rest of us are never told about it.
My new years resolution was to omit the drudge report from my "news" sources since it's mostly just a portal to people like Alex Jones and race-baiting freaks.
We report(a bunch of partisan innuendo and half-truths).
You decide (if it's true).
That's the truth right there. None of these blowhards or screamers would get a minute of airtime if they couldn't gather an audience. Too many people don't want information- just reinforcement of their own prejudices and beliefs.
Since this isn't a news site, sometimes you have to look up the figures yourself. "Obama has indeed presided over the slowest growth in spending of any president using raw dollars, and it was the second-slowest if you adjust for inflation." — Politifact.
Obama's rate of spending is especially frugal when compared to that liberal spendthrift Ronald Reagan, in whose first year Federal spending increased over %8.
Take the initiative, King of Me. If you are in disagreement, find a credible source to refute what is posted. (credible sources do not include most blogs, most dot orgs, or any talking point dot orgs or coms)
Federal deficits for the last few years:
President Obama President Bush
FY 2013: $901 billion FY 2009: 1,413 billion
FY 2012: $1,089 billionFY 2008: $459 billion
FY 2011: $1,300 billionFY 2007: $161 billion
FY 2010: $1,293 billion
Some would say that the highest budget of FY 2009 should also be Obama's, but the first year of a presidency has already been set by the time a president takes office, so it is usually attributed to the last administration. And the Great recession had certainly started before President Obama took office.
Also the budget deficit for FY 2013 is a projected budget, and that before the latest Fiscal cliff deal in Congress, it will probably be less, but how much is yet to be determined.
These are the facts, like them or not. Source:
I believe this to be a somewhat conservative business oriented site. Please go there and see the charts, they are very informative!!
are you talking about the O phone?
George Noory the other day pointed out a lot of AM disc jockeys made a career move and suddenly became right wing talk show hosts because they found a market they could sell to.
Robert, in addition to the numbers you cited, it is important for all to note that the $800 billion W Bush spent on TARP is in the 2009 budget. That's an incovenient fact for the anti-Obama crowd.
And, while it is not considered "spending", the tax cuts (insisted on by the Republicans) that made up 40% of the stimulus contributed to the size of the 2009 deficit.
I'm not sure what you are disputing. I simply pointed out that:
a) US Gov't fiscal years start on Oct 1 and end the following Sep 30, not Jan 1 and Dec 31 (that's a fact)
b) TARP fell into the 2009 fiscal year, which had a HUGE deficit that many people blame on Obama. (that's a fact, too)
c) 40% of Obama's stimulus was tax cuts that the Republicans insisted on, and that also fell into the 2009 fiscal year and further increased the deficit (that's a fact, too)
So what is your point?

Defending Division II Class AA state champion Baylor honored its five soccer seniors during Tuesday night's match with Chattanooga Christian.
For two Red Raiders, senior night was even more meaningful.
Ramsey Seagle and Jeff Shibata have played together for Baylor since eighth grade, and helped the Red Raiders earn a 2-0 victory in one of the final home matches of their impressive careers.
"Those seniors have been through everything here," coach Curtis Blair said. "Their eighth and ninth grade years we were not very good, but they stuck with it and stuck with the program. One of their goals was to help turn the program around, and I think they've done a great job with that.
"Even though we won state last year, I think a lot of people still counted us out this year, but those guys have come back and been good leaders for us. They're helping the younger guys understand what our region's about and how hard it is."
Baylor, ranked fourth this year in D-II AA, started out with a goal in the 13th minute against CCS, the state's No. 3 Class A/AA team. Seagle scored with an assist from Austin Rehm, and about three minutes later, George Petway connected on a ball from Kyle Johnston to put the Red Raiders up 2-0.
Although pleased with Baylor's performance in the first half, Blair said he watched his team become complacent in the final 40 minutes.
"I thought we played very well in the first half," he said. "I thought we came out and sort of set the standard for the rest of the game. But I was disappointed in the second half. I think we came out with the mentality of being up 2-0 instead of the mentality of we're going to go out and put teams away. I thought we tried to play safe, when instead we should be trying to continue to go forward and put teams away."
Despite fewer offensive opportunities in the second half, the Baylor defense held the 2-0 lead and improved the Red Raiders' record to 12-2-3. They hope the win against a tough Chargers team will provide a boost as they travel to face Father Ryan on Friday in a key D-II Mid-East Region matchup.
"CCS is always good," Blair said. "You know they're always going to come out organized and ready to play, and they were tonight. We were worried about trying to keep everyone healthy for a big region game on Friday. Plus it was senior night, so we were worried about them being too excited and not really settling down and playing."
Friday's game will determine whether Baylor will claim the No. 2 seeding and a first-round bye for the upcoming state tournament, or a No. 3 spot with a first-round match on May 11.
"The good part is we're healthy right now," Blair said. "At this point in the season, you at least want that. I feel like we could still play better, but we're at least playing okay as we go into Friday."
