A bipartisan budget deal unveiled this week includes a small provision that would allow government debt collectors to robocall mobile phones to help pressure people to pay up.
The Commerce section of the bill unveiled Monday night would exempt the government and those collecting debt on its behalf from some telephone consumer protection rules, if the calls are made "solely to collect a debt owed to or guaranteed by the United States."
Senate Commerce Committee Chairman John ThuneJohn ThuneGingrich, Christie top Trump's VP list: report Congress must resolve net neutrality once and for all Facebook offers set of 'Values' to reassure users of neutrality MORE (R-S.D.) said the Office of Management and Budget offered up the provision, which has been included in President Obama's budget request for the past few years. He said it's meant to help government collectors recoup student loan debt.
"I guess this particular issue, I don't have big heartburn over," Thune told reporters Wednesday. "But I think moving forward, this is an issue we are going to have to take a closer look at and determine what those rules are."
The OMB had predicted the provision could bring in about $120 million over 10 years. However, an analysis released by the Congressional Budget Office concluded the revenue would be negligible over the next 10 years.
"There is a dispute about that. I don't know — and it's not a big amount of money," Thune said.
Word of the provision has already angered some Democrats, who have pushed the FCC to crack down on robocalls from private businesses. Robocalls and texts to cellphones are restricted with only a handful of exceptions, and the FCC recently voted to strengthen some provisions.
Sen. Claire McCaskillClaire McCaskillThe Trail 2016: Meet and greet and grief McCaskill: I wonder if people voting for Trump are embarrassed VA opposes bill aimed at helping vets in mustard gas experiments MORE (D-Mo.) called the debt collection provision a "stupid idea."
"I was confused when I looked at the budget deal," she said at a hearing Wednesday. "I don't know how this provision got in there. And if anybody knowns, I would love to find out. I just think it is a really bad idea that we put something in this budget deal that's going to allow the federal government to participate in robocalls to collect debt."
Sens. Ed MarkeyEd MarkeyDems: Keep gun research ban out of spending bills Overnight Tech: Groups grade Clinton tech agenda | Facebook activates safety check in Istanbul | Another holdup for location data bill Overnight Cybersecurity: US sees drop in Chinese cyberattacks MORE (D-Mass.) and Richard BlumenthalRichard BlumenthalOvernight Tech: Groups grade Clinton tech agenda | Facebook activates safety check in Istanbul | Another holdup for location data bill Senate faces critical vote on Puerto Rico Reid backs House Puerto Rico bill MORE (D-Conn.) also raised concerns about the provision.
The provision is not significant enough to cause Democratic critics to completely oppose the 144-page deal, which appears to have enough votes to pass.
McCaskill said the budget breakthrough is too important to cause her to jettison the compromise, but she called on the FCC to write strict regulations to drastically restrict debt collection calls from the government.
"I would be perfectly happy to work with your office to make sure the American consumers get a little bit more of that privacy," FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel said, who appeared at a re-nomination hearing before the Commerce Committee.

As of today we are almost exactly 8 weeks away from the start of the Patriot League basketball tournament. That means Lehigh fans may get to see C.J. McCollum play for the brown and white again, if he heals quickly from a broken bone in his foot that he suffered Saturday. Of course, this also means, they may never see him in a Lehigh uniform again. The broken bone suffered at VCU will keep McCollum out 8-10 weeks. If it's 8, that's great news for Lehigh and McCollum who leads the nation in scoring this season in terms of getting back to make a run at another NCAA tournament berth and league title. If it's 10 weeks, McCollum's next game could be at the next level. For Lehigh, what this means is a very good team has to make some big adjustments in how they do things if they want to be in the title hunt while he recovers. The good news for the Mountain Hawks is they have a veteran team with lots of talent.
Lehigh adjusting to life without McCollum

Revised EIR Published,
Reflecting Scaled-Back Design
Supervisors' vote expected in late fall
JUNE 15, 2016—It looks like we'll know by the end of the year whether Saranap Village will be built – and in what form. The county Department of Conservation and Development (DCD) on May 5 published the draft of a revised environmental impact report for the project. The revised EIR, called a "recirculated draft EIR" (RDEIR), reflects changes to the project since the developer, Hall Equities Group, first submitted plans nearly two years ago. The project has been scaled back considerably since then.
The RDEIR concludes that all potential environmental impacts identified by the county's consultants can be reduced to "less-than-significant levels."
Publication of the revised EIR set into motion a four-step process that, if it follows the usual timeline, will result in the project going before the board of supervisors in the late fall. The public will have an opportunity to provide input at each step of the way.

Mix: Paper dock, Apple stores, Vuzix, Aardvark
French blog Dessine moi un objet has created a paper dock for the iPhone and iPod, complete with a PDF template. The design uses folds and slots to keep the device resting on an angle, with openings allowing for the Dock Connector to pass through the stand to the bottom of the iPhone or iPod touch. Interested users can download the template directly from the website.
Apple is planning to add dedicated "iPhone Activation Zones" to its retail stores in order to enhance the in-store purchase and activation process, according to a new report. Citing multiple anonymous sources, Mac Rumors reports that the changes, due to roll out as soon as this week, will involve layout changes to the company's various store designs to create the aforementioned areas where customers can quickly pick up and activate a new iPhone after completing the pre-authorization process online. The zones will reportedly be staffed by new "iPhone Experts," who will be identifiable by unique t-shirts and name badges.
Vuzix has introduced its new Wrap 310 Video Eyewear for the iPod, iPhone, and other portable devices. The Wrap 310 features a twin 16x9 monitors which show a 55-inch equivalent screen, up to 6 hours of play time from 2 AA batteries, composite and VGA video inputs, as well as a dedicated dock connection for the iPod and iPhone, and included removable noise isolating earphones. No release date or pricing has been announced.
The Internet answer service Aardvark has launched its new application for the iPhone and iPod touch. Aardvark leverages a user's existing social networking contacts to find the best person to ask a given question, then contacts those people who might be available to answer and asks on the user's behalf. The application offers automatic location detection, push notifications, a language engine to analyze questions to find key topics, and more. Aardvark is a free download from the App Store.

OK, so I was bored and I needed a new phone dock for my work computer - I built this French dock. It was kind of fun to do, but make sure you use the heaviest paper you can fit in your printer. I used regular card stock and had to reinforce it with cardboard after I was done. The results were . . . well, mediocre, but hey, I made it myself and it was essentially free.

3-D Engineeringby Vicki V. May
How did somebody come up with the idea for bridges, skyscrapers, helicopters, and nightlights? How did people figure out how to build them? In 3D Engineering: Design and Build Your Own Prototypes, young readers tackle real-life engineering problems by figuring out real-life solutions. Kids apply science and math skills to create prototypes for bridges, instruments, alarms, and more. Prototypes are preliminary models used by engineers--and kids--to evaluate ideas and to better understand how things work. Engineering design starts with an idea. How do we get to the other side of the river? How do we travel long distances in short times? Using a structured engineering design process, kids learn how to brainstorm, build a prototype, test a prototype, evaluate, and re-design. Projects include designing a cardboard chair to understand the stiffness of structural systems and designing and building a set of pan pipes to experiment with pitch and volume. Creating prototypes is a key step in the engineering design process and prototyping early in the design process generally results in better processes and products. 3D Engineering gives kids a chance to figure out many different prototypes, empowering them to discover the mechanics of the world we know.

The 39 Apartments of Ludwig Van Beethovenby Jonah Winter Barry Blitt
How hard is it to move 5 legless pianos 39 times?Beethoven owned five legless pianos and composed great works on the floor. His first apartment was in the center of Vienna's theater district... but he forgot to pay rent, so he had to move. (And it's very hard to move a piano. Even harder to move five). Beethoven's next apartment was in a dangerous part of town... so he moved, and the pianos followed on a series of pulleys. Then came an apartment with a view of the Danube (but he made too much noise and the neighbors complained), followed by an attic apartment (where he made even MORE of a rukus), and so Beethoven moved again and again. Each time, pianos were bought, left behind, transported on pulleys, slides, and by movers, all so that gifted Beethoven could compose great works of music for the world.

47 Easy-to-Do Classic Science Experimentsby Eugene F. Provenzo Jr. Asterie Baker Provenzo
Here is a highly motivating book for grade-school students that will introduce them to many of the world's most popular (and historically significant) scientific experiments. They'll learn about gravity simply by following the acrobatic antics of an ordinary coin. By trying to blow an egg out of a cup, they'll discover the principles of air pressure. Dancing soap bubbles will help them understand the effects of static electricity, and by dropping quarters into a full glass of water without causing it to overflow, they'll study the effects of surface tension.These and over 40 other experiments have been carefully selected by noted educators Eugene and Asterie Baker Provenzo to familiarize children with classic science experiments involving optics, inertia, air pressure, magnetism, sound, topology, light, density, vibration, prisms, elasticity, gases, vacuum, perspective, geometry, centrifugal force, buoyancy, color, and much more. Some experiments, such as the optical "Newton's Rings" are hundreds of years old. Still others, like the straw lever test, are based on Greek experiments with leverage and the center of gravity -- first carried out thousands of years ago.Easy-to-follow instructions and illustrations show youngsters how to perform each experiment, most of which are prefaced with historical background, a list of necessary materials and an explanation of key terms. Almost all experiments can be carried out with common household items (tissue paper, scissors, tapes, rubber balloons, pens, pencils, etc.) and can be worked at home or in the classroom to demonstrate specific scientific principles or to supplement a science-curriculum unit. Sources for all historical illustrations given in the text are listed at the end of the book.

Response to U.S. Attorney Office of Eastern WA to not charge police officers in the death of Mr. Zambrano-Montes
Pasco WA. 6.21.2016 - The Latino Civic Alliance (LCA) firmly disagrees with the U.S. Attorney Michael Ormsby in the Eastern District of Washington decision to not file charges against former police officer Ryan Flanagan, police officers Adam Wright and Adrian Alaniz. The evidence from the videos and witnesses is clear that the officers chose to kill Mr. Antonio Zambrano-Montes on February 10, 2015.
We believe that criminal and civil rights laws were violated and police misconduct occurred when Mr. Zambrano-Montes was shot 17 times and killed by officers after appearing to be surrendering. Furthermore, we believe innocent bystanders were unnecessarily put at risk of injury, violating their civil rights. A primary purpose of the nation's civil rights laws is to protect citizens from abuses by government, including police misconduct. A statute known as Section 1983 is the primary civil rights law victims of police misconduct rely upon. This law was originally passed as part of the Civil Rights Act of 1871, which was intended to curb oppressive conduct by government and private individuals participating in vigilante groups, such as the Ku Klux Klan. It is now called Section 1983 because that is where the law has been published, within Title 42, of the United States Code. Section 1983 makes it unlawful for anyone acting under the authority of state law to deprive another person of his or her rights under the Constitution or federal law. The most common claims brought against police officers are false arrest (or false imprisonment), malicious prosecution, and use of excessive or unreasonable force.
The decision by the U.S. Department of Justice to not charge the officers for the execution of Zambrano-Montes is indicative of the lack of trust they have created nationwide. The U.S. Justice Department nationally has demonstrated the complexity to report civil or criminal violations. They do not have a clear guideline in place to properly inform the public when police officers are being investigated or hold police officers accountable or indict police officers for misconduct, excessive use of force or deadly force and this has damaged the reputation of the United States Justice Department. According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics shows that the conviction rate for members of the general public who were tried on criminal charges ranged around 68% from 2002 through 2006; while data collected from the National Police Misconduct Reporting Project, shows that during the period of April 2009 to December 2010 the conviction rate for law enforcement officers was closer to 39%.
Furthermore, data from the National Police Misconduct Reporting Project shows that "for the 426 law enforcement officers who were accused of using excessive force in incidents where a fatality occurred, only 28 faced charges and half of those who were prosecuted ended up being convicted. This would appear to indicate that there are disparities on a national scale between how law enforcement officers are treated in the criminal justice system compared to the general public. According to the National Police Misconduct Reporting Project, Washington State ranks number two in the five states with the lowest prosecution rates for law enforcement officers in the United States. Washington State also ranks number two among the five states with the worst law enforcement conviction rates for law enforcement.
Earlier this year, U.S. Attorney Michael Ormsby met with LCA, one of the largest state advocacy groups in WA and was asked specifically to deliver the statute that the civil rights case would be determined in the Zambrano Montes case. Although he promised to provide this information, he never delivered. The decision to not file charges was made by the U.S. Attorney's office behind closed doors and poor choice to base their decision on the Tri-Cities/Washington State Patrol Special Investigation Unit findings instead of using independent resources outside of the area. Public officials representing the police department in the surrounding areas have been openly opposed to an inquisition and have stated their bias towards the culpability of their police officers. The lack of use of impartial resources and biased personnel ultimately led to the decision announced today.
Finally, LCA questions U.S. Attorney Ormsby lack of understanding to the series of nationwide events calling for new measures to hold police officers accountable. We also question the leadership that provided oversight to U.S. Attorney Ormsby investigating the Zambrano-Montes case. We need our U.S. Justice Department to be transparent, protect us all and ensure that anyone that violates our constitutional rights is held accountable. In the case of Mr. Zambrano Montes, it appears they applied their exhaustive efforts to protect the criminal behavior of the police officers involved. LCA believes reform is direly needed and will not look away when injustice occurs. We will continue to advocate on a local, state and national level that when police officers exercise excessive use of deadly force that they will be held accountable and removed from serving the public. This also applies to the investigative authorities including the U.S. Justice Department that investigates police officers when misconduct is demonstrated. To all the law enforcement officers that put their lives at risk, respect the community that they serve to protect, we thank you. To those that violate their position and abuse this privilege, we ask that you keep in mind that human dignity is afforded to all and justice will prevail.

Bella and Beavis played ball together, shared living quarters, ate together, etc. They lived and loved together for quite a while. Beavis died this morning, and Bella has been in mourning for hours. May 1 2013- Update: Bella was doing fine by the next day. She cried for about 6 hours and wouldn't let the other dogs near Beavis until much later. Beavis was buried later in the day. Bella had puppies about 2 months later. The father is the black German Shepherd in the video. Bella has been missing for ten days. If anyone in Bloomingdale, Georgia, U.S.A. knows of her whereabouts, please contact me,as Bella is greatly missed by all of her family here. Beavis came and went as he pleased. He (or she) was not "trained" or "kept" as a pet. It was merely a relationship between Bella and Beavis that no one here interfered with. Many mornings would find Beavis in the yard lounging with Bella curled up next to him sleeping. Bella would grab a tennis ball in her mouth and coax Beavis to give chase- which he surprisingly did often (albeit in short bursts). We did not feed Beavis on a regular basis because no one ever knew when he/she would show up. If he seemed interested in food, he would waddle up and share Bella's. Bella would not share her food with any other dog- ever. It was a strange but delightful relationship that we were all blessed to be a part of. FAQ: Did we make Beavis fat? No we didn't. He was a solid 200lbs all on his own. Do we have video of Bella and Beavis playing? God knows I wish I did. I intended to record them together but procrastinated. One always believes there will be more time for such things. How did Beavis die? No one knows. Possibly by the neighbor's tractor during a field cutting. Why didn't you have Bella 'fixed' so she wouldn't have puppies? Don't you know there are billions and billions and trillions of unwanted dogs needing homes? I wanted Bella to have puppies. I am a responsible owner. Her puppies are being well taken care of and are living happy lives. I had Bella 'fixed' soon after her first and only litter of puppies. Have you found Bella? Unfortunately not as of today- 5.12.13. We will forever miss her. Bella has two puppies here. A brindle male by the name of "Tank", and a female named "Blossom". They get into every type of mischief imaginable. Surely I will post a video or two of them in the future. Thanks to all who viewed/liked/inquired about Bella and Beavis.

Elton's 750,000 euro HIV donation not spent
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
So, who'se surprised with the Irish track record so far?
Disturbing that one of the key issues that the Republics HSE has suggested is behind the stalling of the use of this money to reduce risk of HIV infection is due to the lack of recruitment of pharmacists to provide needles on an exchnage basis. Two solutions – i) use the ones who are prepared to and demonstrate the efficacy and safety of the scheme and recruit more and ii) permit other health professionals (as in the UK, US, Spain, Canada and New Zealand) to provide clean needles in exchnage centres
Failure to progress this is not only a dereliction of duty of the Irish HSE and speaks volumes of their failures in prgressing HIV treatment and strategies but also is a legal breach of charity law by failing to utilise monies available for specific projects and I personally would endorse EJAF removing the funding if no significant progress occurs soon.
It's disturbing that on the negative side of this story the funds have not been used, on the positive side of the story if you can call it that… some one some where has the integrity to have tracked the funds to know they have not been used, abused or redirected for other causes! The time wasted this far by not using them is unfortunate and inexcusable for people who could have been helped. Now he knows about the situation Elton is wise to have asked for future reporting and monitoring of the funds.

Losing Items Driving Me Crazy
Last night I had to only craft one more wisp lantern. BUT when I woke up this morning it now says I only have 1 and have to craft 3 more. What the heck? Also I had crafted enough fancy beams and fancy blocks for the castle, but several of those are mysteriously gone again too. I love this game but it's frustrating losing stuff!
Answer from: liakini
If you are completing more than one goals at the same time that require the same materials and you complete one, it will use up your materials. Also, if you are gathering materials for a caravan you will not be able to use those items to complete goals because they are already "gone." So avoid hitting the "load" button to allow for you to keep those items for goals such as buildings. Of course I found that out the hard way :)
Answer from: LaLa
Thank you. I've been having the same problem but I am crafting a few items that need wisp lanterns. you have no choice where they're applied!

Education Commissioner says Kentucky is not tracking alternative education well enough
Kentucky needs to better track it's alternative education programs so it can better overhaul the ones that are merely warehousing students – and not engaging them to keep them from dropping out, the state's top education official said.
Kentucky Education Commissioner Terry Holliday told Pure Politics on Wednesday that a lot kids are getting lost in alternative programs.
Alternative education programs are at the heart of one of the biggest education debates in the last several years, raising the drop out age from 16 to 18.
About 70,000 Kentucky students have been placed in such alternative programs, which are supposed to help students most at-risk of dropping out of school, usually because they struggle in a typical classroom setting.
Some of these programs in Kentucky have dynamic teachers who teach to students in new ways, some programs are more homely – reducing stress put on kids who can't perform in a classroom setting. Some divert students into technical and vocational schools. And some let students just sit, and that's a big problem, Holliday said – there's little to no tracking and standardization.
Holliday acknowledged that once statistics and information are recorded and tracked, officials can find the ineffective programs and improve them.
Holliday said the board of education has and will continue to take the lead on alternative education and legislation moving forward. The board has implemented some regulations aimed at improving those programs.
Rep. Joni Jenkins, a Democrat from Shively, sponsored a bill that would prevent principals or superintendents from disciplining teachers by "banishing" them to alternative programs.
Jenkins said on Pure Politics this week that those programs need engaging teachers who want to help students using different teaching styles.
