Capturing what matters and measuring what counts: This is a global leadership imperative. And it is the best--if not the only--way to showcase that managing digital globalization and delivering international experiences effectively pay off. It is all about effectiveness and starts with the early steps in the global content value chain. A number of criteria and indicators should be on the radar screen of anyone willing to define, analyze, and leverage effectiveness holistically. Productivity may not always be at the top of the list in terms of localization benefits although it definitely drives time and cost savings, while enabling to better allocate resources and optimize timeframes. It may come up as a secondary factor or be diluted in other prominent indicators such as content accuracy or consistency.

Basis Technology recently announced an initiative to create the next generation of digital forensics products. Basis Technology specializes in multilingual information retrieval, focusing on the problem of searching, sorting, classifying, and organizing information in many different languages. The company's clients include Google, Microsoft, MSN Search, Yahoo!, AOL, and numerous others. Carl Hoffman, CEO of Basis Technology, says, "Our software enables these search engines to index and retrieve Web pages in languages other than English. So if you go to Yahoo! and enter a query in Japanese, it will give back to you Japanese Web pages. It's our software under the hood that makes that work."
Basis believes it can leverage its analytic multilingual search approach to enhance the field of digital forensics. To support this endeavor, the company hired Dr. Brian Carrier, PhD, to serve as the director of its Digital Forensics Group. Carrier is the author of the textbook File System Forensic Analysis and of two open source forensics tools, Sleuth Kit and Autopsy. Basis also hired Dr. Simson Garfinkel, PhD, as a consultant with the title of consulting scientist and forensics software architect. He is the author of the open source Advanced Forensics Format (AFF) software library and the author or co-author of 14 books on computing.
Hoffman says, "They each have unique strengths and experiences: Dr. Carrier is one of the world's experts on the forensic analysis of file systems. Dr. Garfinkel is in many ways the visionary of this system. He has been cooking up a system like this one in his head for many years now, and he actually first began working for us about a year ago in a consulting capacity, writing our early design papers. He is also an expert on what is referred to as drive sanitization practices, and is the author of a fairly landmark study on sanitization practices."
Hoffman sees Basis' digital forensics market target as law enforcement, defense, the military, the intelligence community, and litigation support. "These tools are especially important in law enforcement because if you look at any criminal enterprise today, it runs like a corporation and uses computers extensively."
Basis Technology's primary product is called the Rosette Linguistics Platform, which focuses on documents and text, similar to the current generation of forensic processes. This has two components: acquisition of information on the computer into a specific format, and analysis of the information.
To leverage the company's background in multilingual search, Carrier will work to integrate Basis Technology's foreign language support with forensic tools. Carrier says, "The industry has some basic searching capabilities for foreign languages, but they don't really have the high-powered analysis that Basis currently delivers. The software will now go through and extract out files and data from the hard disk and then import it into the analysis software and perform additional analysis techniques beyond just the foreign language analysis."
United States operating systems typically use the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) for formatting, which has 128 symbols. European countries use a 256-character set, which can accommodate Latin figures and diacritical marks in a variety of languages including French, German, Spanish, and Italian. Once you start bringing in Russian, Middle Eastern, or Asian languages, the subject of data retrieval and forensic recovery becomes significantly more complex. Hoffman says, "Let's say you have a hard drive and you're searching for any document on a hard drive that contains keywords that you're looking for. Most forensic products today will do a pretty good job of finding documents containing those keywords, just like your desktop search utility would, provided that the keywords you're searching for are in English." Clearly, Basis feels it can build upon its expertise to help organizations glean information from digital media in any language.
Carrier says, "What we're looking at is much more automation in the large scale investigations. There currently is a lot of manual processing involved. So we're working on automating part of this process to make it more efficient and allow people to correlate and link computers together."

Oh, and the two eccentric curmudgeons reportedly are millionaires, so if Walter can figure out where they're stashing their money before mom returns, all the better.

A frightening fall on to rocks from Nelson's waterfront road should spur authorities to improve cyclist and pedestrian conditions, says a health board member.
Judy Crowe escaped with bruises after a two-metre fall from Rocks Rd on Monday, but said it could have been much more serious if she had not been wearing her cycle helmet.
Ms Crowe said she had got off her bike and was attempting to manoeuvre around pedestrians on the narrow footpath when she lost her footing. She had dismounted as part of a continuing protest against the cycleways along Rocks Rd, which she considers unsafe.
She fell over the chain and onto the rocks. Ambulance and fire service attended and she was taken to Nelson Hospital for further assessment.
She was initially treated for neck and spinal injuries but came out unscathed, apart from extensive bruising to her face.
It would have been much worse if she had not been wearing her wetsuit or helmet, said Ms Crowe, a Nelson Marlborough District Health Board member. She said she would not have fallen had the pathway been wider and the chained barriers higher.
Nelson City Council communications manager Angela Ricker said the council managed the footpath on Rocks Rd and acknowledged in places it was not as wide as it should be.
The council also acknowledged the chains did not meet current standards and for this reason, and others, the council and the NZ Transport Agency had commissioned an investigation.
It will report on ways to improve safety for Rocks Rd walkers and cyclists, while retaining heritage values such as the chains.
The investigation was now under way and would include extensive community consultation. It would then be subject to typical council and NZTA processes that could take "some time", as they involved two agencies, she said.
Ms Crowe said she was on the footpath and not cycling because she was protesting against a lack of safety on the Rocks Rd cycleway.
It was an issue she was particularly passionate about.
"I know there is this long-term plan and investigation, but what about cyclist and pedestrian safety in the meantime?"
Cyclists were subject to a catch 22, where they were forced to either cycle in a lane that was dangerous or cycle illegally on the footpath, she said.
She believed, given the high number of cyclists in the area, there should have been better infrastructure.
The speed of vehicles (50kmh) on the highway, the lack of segregated cycle lanes and vehicles driving across the cycle lane were the key problems, she said.
She found trucks and vehicles in general often travelled across the cycle lane line
"I don't feel at all comfortable cycling within the cycle lane. I choose to cycle on the footpath."
On narrow pavements, including where yesterday's accident happened, she always dismounted.
Cycle Advocates Network spokesman Patrick Morgan said it was understandable that people were not choosing to use the cycleway because of a perception of lack of safety.
"It is a no-brainer, it is not a good idea to mix people on bikes with heavy traffic so we need segregated cycleways."
Nelson had the highest rates of cyclists in the country and it was one of the top cycle spots, he said.
"It would be a shame to see it lose its reputation as a cycle-friendly town, so this is another reason to be investing more money in effective cycle infrastructure."
NZTA central region media manager Anthony Frith said the responsibility for road safety must be shared by all road users.
All roads carried a degree of risk, particularly for vulnerable road users such as cyclists, and to reduce this risk NZTA urged motorists to give cyclists space, avoid risky passing manoeuvres, and observe the speed limit at all times.
"We also note that together with Nelson City Council we are investigating the feasibility of a safer, separated pathway for cyclists along Rocks Rd."
There were no current plans to change the speed limit.
"If people have any safety concerns about this highway - or any other highway - we want to encourage them to contact us directly, or to contact police immediately if they encounter any dangerous road user behaviour."
NZTA said there had been seven reported crashes on Rocks Rd involving cyclists in the last five years, with three of them involving a truck and a cyclist, resulting in one serious injury and two minor injuries.

All this speculation is theory until proven but should be considered since those in the media would have us believe people like Gene Rosen and that strange living room scene.

If you can, get the Boomstick edition. That's the best one. I think the only one on shelves now is the bare bones Universal one.
I beleive so, but the Anchor Bay DC, in any form, is not as high quality as the HK DVD.
I'm curious after reading Gabriel's post. I have the theatrical cut, the bootleg director's cut, and the boomstick edition. The boomstick edition is the same as the first two, so I could get rid of the first two without losing any content?
yeah I ws planning on ordering it from Amazon along with The Book of the Dead. Thanks
The only version still on the market is the non-anamorphic and the bootleg I think,
but most people recommend the Boomstick Edition, which you can order used or new on Ebay and amazon.

What To Expect From Neon Indian's Late Night with Jimmy Fallon Performance Tonight...
Earlier this afternoon, the Denton-sprung Neon Indian posted a note to its Facebook page teasing their return performance tonight onLate Night with Jimmy Fallon
: "I think Fallon is joining the band..." the note read.
Considering how geeked out on the band Fallon was the last time the band performed on his show, we wouldn't be altogether surprised if this were true.
For now, though, we're gonna assume for now that the person behind the post was joking. Still, you can expect something else special to happen during the band's performance of "Polish Girl" tonight, for sure.

In addition to introducing a few new, familiar members into the band's lineup, tonight's performance will also feature some assistance from the Vice and Intel collaborative art project, The Creators Project.
You may have noticed that it was on the YouTube page for The Creators Project where the video for Neon Indian's "Polish Girl" first appeared earlier this week. That's because, at least in part, the team, which contributed art installation aspects to various performances at Coachella earlier this year, had a hand in creating the effects for the Tim Nackashi-directed piece.
Tonight, they'll again have a hand in the band's offering of the song, promises Neon Indian publicity rep Daniel Gill of Force Field PR. There will be smoke and visual elements aplenty during the performance, Gill promises, while sharing that the band has spent a number of days rehearsing specifically for this performance. Indeed, it will be one-time thing; The Creators Project's installation will not be joining the band on the road or anything like that.
"That'd be way too expensive," Gill says with a laugh.

Evan's info gave me the understanding that if a guy is interested in you, he will want to be with you, he will call when he says he will call, he will make sure he arranges time to spend with you.
He is smart, loving, funny, a perfect travel partner, and really wonderful. I have never been in such a lovely relationship. I feel secure, cherished, and happy every day. I never stopped reading your books, and checked up on myself often.
You always did tell it like it is. I have to say thank you for believing in me, and giving me confidence I didn't know I had. Thank you for seeing that there was something to be seen in me, that I didn't even know existed.
If you're looking to answer your most pressing dating and relationship question, my blog is like Google for your love life!

NHL Notes
Ryan Kesler lasted only seven games before being forced out of the Vancouver Canucks' lineup again.
The Canucks said Wednesday that Kesler will be out for up to six weeks because of a broken right foot. The fracture was revealed on a CT scan.
Coach Alain Vigneault said Kesler might have been playing with the injury before it was diagnosed. Kesler played more than 19 minutes against Phoenix on Tuesday and earned an assist.
He returned to action two weeks ago after recovering from offseason shoulder surgery. Kesler had a goal and four assists in seven games before being injured again.
The Dallas Stars activated Kari Lehtonen from the injured list, and the goalie says he expects to play tonight against Edmonton.
Lehtonen missed five games because of a groin-muscle injury after leaving in the first period of a 4-3 victory over Vancouver on Feb. 15.
The Columbus Blue Jackets have placed former Ducks defenseman James Wisniewski on injured reserve retroactive to Feb. 24. He is expected to miss 4-6 weeks because of a broken right foot.
Wisniewski, 29, was injured when he was struck by a shot during Sunday's game against Chicago.
He had three goals (all power-play) and six assists in 15 games this season. He had a point in eight of his past nine games.
The Oilers have placed Nikolai Khabibulin, 40, on injury reserve after the goaltender injured a groin muscle in Edmonton's 3-2 overtime loss to Chicago on Monday. He has a 2.11 goals-against average in five games.

Blogs Liberty and Power "It's Essential That I Explain This Properly"Feb 8, 2004 1:15 pm
"It's Essential That I Explain This Properly"
It's essential that I explain this properly to the parents of those who lost their lives. Saddam Hussein was dangerous, and I'm not gonna leave him in power and trust a madman. He's a dangerous man. He had the ability to make weapons at the very minimum. For the parents of the soldiers who have fallen who are listening, David Kay, the weapons inspector, came back and said, "In many ways Iraq was more dangerous than we thought." It's we are in a war against these terrorists who will bring great harm to America, and I've asked these young ones to sacrifice for that.
A free Iraq will change the world. It's historic times. A free Iraq will make it easier for other children in our own country to grow up in a safer world because in the Middle East is where you find the hatred and violence that enables the enemy to recruit its killers.
And, Tim, as you can tell, I've got a foreign policy that is one that believes America has a responsibility in this world to lead, a responsibility to lead in the war against terror, a responsibility to speak clearly about the threats that we all face, a responsibility to promote freedom, to free people from the clutches of barbaric people such as Saddam Hussein who tortured, mutilated there were mass graves that we have found a responsibility to fight AIDS, the pandemic of AIDS, and to feed the hungry. We have a responsibility. To me that is history's call to America. I accept the call and will continue to lead in that direction.
If I was the parent of one of the soldiers who got killed in Iraq, and the President sets out to explain to me what he died for, my guess is I wouldn't be too happy with a sloppy, themeless pudding of an answer that ends with fighting AIDS and feeding the hungry. What in the world is he talking about?

"Nuclear" (CD Single)
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that the lyrics of "Nuclear" glorify the singer's "us against the world" bond with her partner -- they're not just unstoppable, they're "nuclear" together. There's a hint of doubt, however, as she asks, "Why run? Why would you run?" There's also a four-letter word in the first verse ("s--t"), and the chorus contains the phrase "going all the way."
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
What's the story?
Despite disbanding twice, once in 2002 and again in 2006, Destiny's Child (Beyonce Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams) has sold more than 50 million albums since 1998. "NUCLEAR," their first single since 2005, is the only new song on a compilation, Love Songs.
Is it any good?
"Bootylicious" this isn't. Fans could be forgiven for thinking "Nuclear" is a sleeper from the vaults: The Pharrell Williams-produced breakbeat groove and faux strings are straight from the '90s, and the song's lack of a strong bass line or any exciting change makes it sound unfinished. The lyrics are vague, and there's nothing groundbreaking here. Although Williams gets a verse, Beyonce dominates most of the track, and the production is stripped down and spare.

Enterprise organizations are looking for service providers to be a trusted partner with them throughout the entire transition through steady state process. The key for cloud providers is to develop ongoing relationships with their customers using hands-on engagement processes from beginning to end. A high touch process ensures that customers engage with various members of the transition team throughout the three stages of the on-boarding process: Business and Technology Assessment, Transition Plan, and Business Reviews.
Business and Technology Assessment
Like most new technologies, cloud computing can require significant changes in business processes, application architectures, technology infrastructure, and operating models that must be properly understood before embarking on any new initiative. Having a well-thought-out strategy can mean the difference between success and failure. The first step to understanding these challenges is the assessment.
The purpose of the business and technology assessment is for customers to conduct a high-level evaluation of the environment, taking into consideration the complexities and nuances of the client's business environment and provide a clear road map of the scope of the project. Once the scope has been determined, the client is able to assess whether they want to take a "do it yourself" approach or select a partner to assist with the transition.
Prior to any cloud or hosting engagement, cloud service providers will have a group of highly trained personnel on the team to scope the project and assess the readiness of the organization. The technical team, which includes an engagement manager, representatives from sales, architecture, understands that each potential customer is unique in their needs and will approach the cloud from a variety of perspectives. The extended business team includes an executive sponsor, representatives from product management, and operations. Product management and operations help with ensuring the cloud service is supportable and sustainable over the long term but the entire team helps to work through any special requirements or compliance issues during the sales process.
As part of a this approach, each of these team members remains involved throughout the entire client lifecycle to ensure the transition is set up correctly, that it is secure and compliant, and the client gets what they need, when they need it.
The complete assessment includes a technical analysis, an economic analysis and a business and application analysis.
- Technical Analysis: Existing infrastructure and applications are reviewed to identify the services best suited for the cloud. The assessment covers key scalability and architectural issues, including server and application processes, and database transactions and scalability. Critical application interfaces also need to be assessed to determine the optimal cloud migration path.
- Business Analysis: Business and economic considerations play a major role in the decision to migrate to the cloud. Customers need to build comprehensive ROI and TCO models that provide economic justification for cloud migration.
- Business and Application Analysis: This analysis determines whether customers need to re-engineer business processes to leverage the cloud and whether their application needs to comply with specific regulations such as PCI, HIPAA, and SOX.
The Transition Plan
Once a potential cloud customer's level of business and technology readiness is understood, a plan is developed that includes the details of on-boarding and steady state management. The plan is essentially a roadmap that defines what the client can expect and when it will be delivered. It includes a detailed custom network design, any type of phased in implementation, escalation procedures, security and compliance considerations, SLA options, training, reporting, a timeline as well as when and how the team will get the environment in a steady state once the transition is complete.
The transition plan focuses on the impact of the customer, which includes the processes, policies and adjustments needed to move them from their current state to a new state. Some examples included in the plan are Service Transition, Change Management, Service Asset and Configuration Management, Release and Deployment Management, Service Validation and Testing, Evaluation, and Knowledge Management.
This is where choosing the right partner can really make a difference. The best partners will have the following capabilities:
- Tried and true migration methodology
- Experience in migrating infrastructure and applications to a cloud delivery mode
- Can specifically address a range of requirements including physical to virtual migrations project management and on-boarding
- The ability to implement a hybrid cloud model if customers want to migrate some, but not all, of their IT infrastructure and services to the cloud
- The ability to customize services to meet the need of the enterprise
This plan will also include the change of technologies, processes and policies to transform the organization. It utilizes technology to spearhead the vision, resolve, business case governance, accountability, workable approach and execution model, capacity planning and the ability to implement and operate.
The engagement manager and the implementation manager play critical roles during this phase. The dedicated engagement manager works directly with the client and harnesses the service provider's internal resources as issues arise while the implementation manager manages the day-to-day operational implementation. The client has multiple points of contact beyond the engagement manager including any of the team members such as the account manager, solution architects, sales, executive sponsor, or operations from the business and technology assessment.
Daily, weekly and monthly updates are provided on the progress of the migration.
At the conclusion of this phase, approximately 98% of the project is complete. It is over the next several months where operations fine-tune the remaining 2% of the project.
Business Reviews
With a cloud platform, monthly charges are based on actual compute resources used; therefore it's critical that cloud-enabled applications run efficiently. Periodic performance tuning and load testing are necessary to optimize applications in the cloud.
Reporting to the engagement manager, the delivery manager and his or her team prepare a weekly report that identifies operating trends and specific incidents. The team will review these issues on a weekly call with the customer and develop additional operating procedures in response to the trends and incidents.
For example, a customer's service on a server goes down on Wednesday at 4:00am. The immediate problem is handled by the incident management process. Through the post-mortem process trend analysis, the service delivery team notices that it has happened every Wednesday at 4:00am for the past several weeks. This is when the team may develop additional standard operating procedures that mitigate the risk of the service going down regularly.
On a monthly basis, the delivery team will take a more holistic approach. They will be able to look at the usage patterns and determine how best to utilize the current resources using a number of parameters including consolidating under-utilized resources, and optimize based on time of day usage, on seasonal demand, and on business process usage variations.
Quarterly, the teams meet and look at the initiatives for the upcoming next quarter as well as revisit the business plan. At this time the teams determine the ongoing readiness to scale and support the upcoming initiatives.
Enterprises need to select a vendor that will partner with them through the entire on-boarding process. The key to a successful, secure and compliant implementation is a high touch engagement process from beginning to end.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Thread: Conall?

Conall has long been my favorite boys' name. It is Irish and means- "strong as a hound" and has a strong and rich heritage throughout Irish history. I want to know your thoughts on it, Nameberry is certainly fond of it but are you and what do you think of it both practically and romantically? I'll still love it either way and just so you know, if to be used it would be in Ireland and pronounced correctly as "coe-null". Personally, the alternative spelling- "Conal" is too flimsy for me.

My first instinct was that it was like Connell (con-null). I think you would encounter this a lot in the States, but people would pick up on the correct pronunciation quickly. If you're in Ireland, I guess that's a non-issue. I love the meaning of the name, and I agree that Conall seems more substantial than Conal.

I love it and I think it would be pronounced correctly in Ireland. Not overly used I think you're in good shape with that as a choice!

Impacting Travel
Cruise Line & Cruise Ship | Norwegian Cruise Line | Theresa Norton | March 06, 2013
Celebrity Cruises has increased the service fees at most of its specialty restaurants by $5 fleet-wide. The change went into effect on March 1. Norwegian Cruise Line is raising the cover charge at its Cagney's steakhouses from $25 to $30, starting on Norwegian Epic on April 13 and then rolling out to the rest of the fleet. The line said it is making the change because it is "in the process of making enhancements to the menu at Cagney's."
At Celebrity, the dining charge increased at every specialty restaurant except for the Lawn Club Grill on Celebrity Silhouette and Reflection, which remains $40, and The Porch and Bistro on Five, which are still $5.

Fleury's book helping others
Published Monday, October 19, 2009 6:33PM MDT
Theoren Fleury is on tour, promoting "Playing with Fire" and he says his biography has helped other victims of sexual abuse to come forward and seek help.
Fleury talked to CTV Anchor Ian White on our noon show on Monday and talked about the impact his book has had since it was released.
Fleury says a number of people have contacted him to admit they were victimized as well when they were kids.
The book details Fleury's sexual abuse as a junior player by then coach Graham James and the subsequent years that followed when he turned to alcohol and drugs to dull the pain.
Fleury was an NHL star and earned a Stanley Cup with the Flames and an Olympic gold medal with Team Canada.
Fleury's book is currently number one on Amazon.ca's bestseller list.
Theo Fleury is now involved with an organization that helps men who endured sexual abuse as children.

Stochastic acceleration and shock acceleration are well recognized as key mechanisms for cosmic ray generation since first proposed by Fermi. So far, these two mechanisms have been investigated widely by analytical models and numerical simulations, but often modeled separately. Researchers have found that the two mechanisms can occur naturally in sequential two stages when a lepton flow propagates in a background interstellar plasma.

"This is my second time staying at this lovely property and I enjoyed it as much, if not more than the first time! It has gorgeous views of Picton Bay, with areas to sit out and watch the boats pass by. There is a great back deck for BBQing and overall the home is beautifully maintained, with a very well-appointed kitchen. The owner is highly responsive and the logistics for arrival and departure are seamless. What makes this property particularly unique is that it feels in many respects like a cottage in the country, with stunning water views, but you're right in the heart of Picton, just a short walk to the shops and restaurants. We have a 2-year old and it was also only a 10-minute stroll to a fabulous playground by Crystal Palace. I highly recommend this home for your next PEC vacation!"Guest: Sarah L.

"We had a wedding to go to in Niagara on the Lake so found this very nicely appointed home with 5 Bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. It was great that each couple or single had their own bed and bath. That made getting ready for the wedding very comfortable. the house itself from the front is deceiving as it's much bigger inside and from the back. Rooms are nicely decorated and it was a very comfortable home to stay in. Being that the owner has many properties he owns both commercially and residentially I was surprised that the home was very dated as far as upkeep. For the price of the home for the week, I would have expected much higher standards in the home especially the kitchen area. Being that several of the guests are high end cooks the kitchen was less than impressive. For $3900 + Gst for 7 days, the cost did not match the deteriorating condition of the home. Also, being that it was April, neither the pool area nor the dock could be enjoyed due to inclement weather as well, so I believe that the price should have been lower for that time and season. However, the house was clean and spacious as other reviews have said. The owner was also quick to send someone when we were having some issues in the home like the unbelievably huge spiders. and the plumbing. Would we stay here again? Possibly, but the home itself would have to be renovated and brought up to date for the price. Also the profile of the home features 5 bedrooms with either King or Queen beds, however, the room that my wife and I stayed in had two twin beds that even if we had pulled them together, would have made the room very awkward to get around, so I believe that the profile is not a true statement for the home and should be advertised more appropriately."Guest: Jay H. Date of Stay: April 2016 Review Submitted: July 6, 2016View listing
"We stayed for 3 delightful nights and thoroughly enjoyed the cottage and the island. Myself, sister, niece and 84 year old mother had a fantastic girls-only retreat. When we arrived at the cottage we felt like we were visiting friends...everything was so comfortable and had that "lived-in" feeling. The whole cottage is bright and airy and it was nice to have an upstairs with a second bathroom and 2 large bedrooms. The kitchen was great to work in and we loved the island in the kitchen. The beach was a short walk away across a grassy field and down a slight slope...worth the walk. Lovely water, great for swimming. This year there isn't much of a beach as the lake is so high. My sister's dog had a great time chasing balls in the backyard (which is very long and perfect for dogs that need a lot of exercise). All in all, a great time at a lovely cottage!"Guest: Marianne P.

Holder proposes changes to mandatory minimum sentences for drug offenders
Jacquelyn Martin, File, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — With the U.S. facing massive overcrowding in its prisons, Attorney General Eric Holder is calling for major changes to the nation's criminal justice system that would scale back the use of harsh sentences for certain drug-related crimes.
In remarks prepared for delivery to the American Bar Association in San Francisco, Holder said he also favors diverting people convicted of low-level offenses to drug treatment and community service programs and expanding a prison program to allow for release of some elderly, non-violent offenders.
"We need to ensure that incarceration is used to punish, deter and rehabilitate — not merely to convict, warehouse and forget," Holder says in the speech he's scheduled to deliver Monday.
In one important change, the attorney general is altering Justice Department policy so that low-level, non-violent drug offenders with no ties to large-scale organizations, gangs or cartels won't be charged with offenses that impose mandatory minimum sentences.
Mandatory minimum prison sentences, a product of the government's war on drugs that began in the 1980s, limit the discretion of judges to impose shorter prison sentences.
Under the altered policy, the attorney general said defendants will instead be charged with offenses for which accompanying sentences "are better suited to their individual conduct, rather than excessive prison terms more appropriate for violent criminals or drug kingpins."
The impact of Holder's initiative on mandatory minimum sentences could be significant, says Marc Mauer, executive director of the Sentencing Project, a non-profit group involved in research and policy reform of the criminal justice system.
There are roughly 25,000 drug convictions in federal court each year and 45 percent of those are for lower-level offenses such as street level dealers and couriers and people who deliver drugs, said Mauer.
The unanswered question is how each of the 94 U.S. Attorneys offices around the country will implement changes, given the authority of prosecutors to exercise discretion in how they handle their criminal cases.
African-Americans and Hispanics likely would benefit the most from a change. African-Americans account for about 30 percent of federal drug convictions each year and Hispanics account for 40 percent, according to Mauer.
If state policymakers were to adopt similar policies, the impact of changes at the state level could be even broader, said Mauer. Currently, about 225,000 state prisoners are incarcerated for drug offenses, according to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics.
Federal prisons are operating at nearly 40 percent above capacity and hold more than 219,000 inmates — with almost half of them serving time for drug-related crimes and many of them with substance use disorders. In addition, 9 million to 10 million prisoners go through local jails each year. Holder praised state and local law enforcement officials for already instituting some of the types of changes Holder says must be made at the federal level.
Aggressive enforcement of federal criminal laws is necessary, but "we cannot simply prosecute or incarcerate our way to becoming a safer nation," Holder said. "Today, a vicious cycle of poverty, criminality and incarceration traps too many Americans and weakens too many communities. However, many aspects of our criminal justice system may actually exacerbate this problem, rather than alleviate it."
Holder said mandatory minimum sentences "breed disrespect for the system. When applied indiscriminately, they do not serve public safety. They have had a disabling effect on communities. And they are ultimately counterproductive."
Sens. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., Mike Lee, R-Utah, and Rand Paul, R-Ky., have introduced legislation aimed at giving federal judges more discretion in applying mandatory minimums to certain drug offenders.

In 1990 and 1991, 40 ditch plugs were constructed to restore a more natural hydroperiod (i.e., duration and depth of flooding) on portions of the 8,900-ha Dupuis Reserve in south Florida. Vegetation transects and digital water level recorders were installed at three sites to monitor changes in vegetation relative to improved hydrologic conditions. Increased hydroperiod resulted in the elimination of Paspalum notatum (bahia grass), an exotic species introduced for cattle forage. Panicum repens (torpedo grass), another introduced species, formed dense monotypic stands in response to increased hydroperiod, but was unable to penetrate areas where Panicum hemitomon (maidencane) already existed. Frequency of occurrence and density of two desirable species, Pontederia cordata (pickerelweed) and maidencane, increased relative to higher inundation frequencies, although maidencane preferred more moderate water depths. Pickerelweed density increased significantly after the second year and was well established on two sites by the fourth year of monitoring.
