When I was based in Moscow for this newspaper during the early years of Mikhail Gorbachev's run as Soviet leader, I sometimes wondered what the Central Intelligence Agency was telling President Ronald Reagan about the rapidly changing state of the Soviet Union. Now I know.
The answer was delivered the other day by Federal Express. It came in the form of two red CD-ROM's adorned with a hammer and sickle. They contain nearly 20,000 pages of what were once some of Washington's most secret documents, the C.I.A.'s assessments of the Soviet Union from 1947 to 1991. The reports were recently declassified by the C.I.A. and were the subject of a conference earlier this month at Princeton University attended by many former agency analysts. Here, at my fingertips, was the best intelligence that hundreds of billions of dollars in spy hardware and manpower had bought for the United States.
After hours of reading about the Gorbachev era, I am sorry to report that the government didn't get its money's worth. In paper after paper, the C.I.A. seemed reluctant to let go of the cold war, even long after Mr. Gorbachev made it abundantly clear that he wanted to reduce international tensions and discard Moscow's ideological outlook on the world. The agency was more open-minded about Mr. Gorbachev's domestic reforms and eventually produced some insightful examinations of social, political and economic change. But even on these matters, the C.I.A. was slow to appreciate the alterations that Mr. Gorbachev was making, and many of its best papers were dated by the time they reached policy makers.
I offer these judgments with a healthy dose of humility. During the initial months of Mr. Gorbachev's rule in 1985 and 1986, his intentions were unclear and his foreign and domestic programs were not fully formed. Later, as the social and political forces he unleashed at home and in Eastern Europe raced beyond his control, no one could predict with certainty where they would lead. The American journalists stationed in Moscow during this period struggled with these questions as well.Continue reading the main story
The C.I.A. record is also not yet complete. The two disks cover the entire course of the cold war, yet they contain only a sampling of the assessments produced over more than four decades, ending with Mr. Gorbachev's last year in office. A limited batch of other assessments dealing mostly with military matters was declassified earlier.
As more documents enter the public domain in coming years, scholars will continue to debate the agency's overall performance, including the core issue of whether the C.I.A. accurately gauged Moscow's military and economic strength. Liberal critics argue that the agency exaggerated Soviet power, leading the United States to spend more on its military forces than needed. Conservatives contend that the agency underestimated the Soviet threat.
My partial review of reports from the new disks suggests that the agency acquitted itself reasonably well on economic matters in the 1970's and early part of the 1980's, accurately forecasting and tracking the economic stagnation that gripped the Soviet Union during many of those years. The newly declassified materials do not resolve the debate about Soviet military power.
On the narrower issue of the Gorbachev reforms, I found many of the papers to be maddening. The discussions of Mr. Gorbachev's diplomatic moves betray an inflexible cold-war mindset. That is understandable in the months after he assumed power and presented a series of arms reduction proposals that seemed aimed more at influencing world opinion than at actually making agreements with the United States.
But as Mr. Gorbachev persisted in his arms control efforts, and in late 1988 announced reductions in Soviet military forces and the withdrawal of six tank divisions from Eastern Europe, the agency remained unimpressed. While acknowledging that Mr. Gorbachev was making bold changes in foreign policy, the agency's dreary February 1989 analysis of these steps said Moscow's broad strategy remained steeped in the Leninist tradition of trying to exploit contradictions between capitalist powers. Just nine months before the Kremlin stood aside as the Berlin Wall fell, the C.I.A. was confidently asserting that Moscow's long-range objectives included preserving Soviet hegemony in Eastern Europe and driving a wedge between Western Europe and the United States.
Americans should be grateful that Mr. Reagan and his secretary of state, George Shultz, paid little heed to the agency's moldy views and instead pursued a variety of diplomatic initiatives with Mr. Gorbachev, based on their personal interactions with the Soviet leader. Mr. Reagan, of course, also pumped up Pentagon spending, which added to the economic pressures on Moscow.
On the domestic side, I found plenty of thoughtful reports about important issues, including growing opposition within the Soviet Union to the war in Afghanistan and the corrosive effect of the Chernobyl nuclear accident on the Kremlin's authority and credibility. One especially notable economic analysis in July 1987 concluded that Mr. Gorbachev's campaign to relax censorship and to promote limited forms of democracy could eventually undermine his power and provoke party conservatives to remove him. That report was prescient, but too many studies trailed developments rather than anticipating them or covered trends well after they had become apparent.
One lesson of this record is that intelligence agencies must be wary of conventional thinking and assumption-driven analysis. The C.I.A. was a creature of the cold war, so much so that it could not imagine that Soviet behavior might change in fundamental ways that would allow the Berlin Wall to fall and democratic ideas to gain ground in Russia.
Another message is that while sophisticated spy satellites and electronic eavesdropping techniques can monitor military forces, keep track of crop yields and intercept communications, the social and political fabric of a society can be understood only by people living in it. Many of the top agency officials who supervised the preparation of these reports never set foot in the Soviet Union during the cold war. Secrecy restrictions barred them from going.
If these documents are a chronicle of the limits of intelligence, they are also powerful evidence of the importance of opening sealed archives so citizens can review the performance of their government. Robert Gates began the systematic effort to declassify intelligence assessments when he served as director of central intelligence in the early 1990's. He is quick to defend the agency's record in assessing the Soviet Union. Thanks to his enlightened leadership in opening the files, Americans can now form their own judgments.Continue reading the main story

Water treatment operators are also responsible for maintaining the physical plant that powers the treatment plant, which necessitates inspections and ordering repairs. Additionally, water treatment operators must perform a variety of administrative and clerical duties relating to the plant, such as administering water distribution agreements, writing maintenance schedules and guidelines, logging daily activities, ordering various work, planning budgets and preparing financial reports, and preparing reports for governmental and regulatory bodies.
To perform their duties effectively, water treatment operators must have knowledge of water and sewer water systems, how to inspect systems, techniques for water testing, basic mechanics, and all related laws. They must also be effective administrators, provide leadership for assistant operators, be flexible and able to work under pressure, be able to work independently, and have good client communication skills. Typically, municipalities require water treatment operators to hold at least an associate's degree, with more advanced coursework corresponding to a higher pay grade.

Clocks management
Understand time distribution
In a system with multiple clocks, time distribution allows to synchronise all slave clocks on the same time base in a building via a master clock.
Areas of application: airports, control centres, train stations, radio studios, army barracks, hospitals, etc.
Radio synchronisation ensures accurate display of the time without any variation. In addition, it ensures Summer/Winter time changeovers automatically to allow for a significant saving on costs for resetting independent battery operated clocks.
Time distribution
This system uses a master clock to synchronise all the slave clocks reliably and on the same time base in a building or group of buildings. A master clock with a programmer also guarantees accurate start-up for security, heating, bells, lighting and other systems.
Clocks supervision
Monitored time distribution gives you real-time knowledge of the state of the monitored clocks and alerts you in the event of an incident.

First 321 words of the document:
If you've ever watched the comedy film "Airplane" there's a memorable cockpit
scene where the Captain is called Roger and the Navigator Victor. It goes
something like this:
Captain: "Give me a Vector Victor"
Navigator: "Roger, Roger" and so it goes on...
So, what is a Vector? It's a thing which has both size and direction. So what's
that mean? Well, think of the speed of a car being 70 miles per hour. Speed is
not a vector as it only has size (10mph is a small size and 70mph a much bigger
size), things with only size are called Scalars.
Now, think of a car doing 70mph in an North Easterly direction (i.e. a bearing of
45o from North). We are now thinking of a speed and direction, this is called
velocity and is an example of a vector.
We can show what this velocity looks like with an arrow:
This sort of diagram can be used as a model to show an
image of a vector. The length of the vector arrow is used
to represent its size (in our case 70mph). The direction of
the arrow is measured as we would any other direction
(by the angle, which is 45o in our case).
Just to make things doubly painful when dealing with vectors, there are various
ways of indicating that something is a vector. Here are 3 ways of representing
the same thing in books:
The last way shown to indicate a vector (by using bold type) is obviously tricky to
do if you are writing by hand. Here the convention is normally to use a squiggly
line underneath the letter to indicate that you are talking about a vector e.g.

Raw Sequence Data 17... up to 1,000,000,000 lines per lane
Part I: Initial QC - What does QC tell you about your library? # of sequences Basecall qualities Base composition Potential contaminants Expected duplication rate 18
QC Raw data: Sequence Quality 10% 1% 0.1% Error rate 19
QC: Base Composition 20 RRBSWGSBS
QC: Duplication rate 21
QC: Overrepresented sequences 22
Common problems in BS-Seq 23 Not observed in 'normal' libraries, e.g. ChIP or RNA-Seq
Removing poor quality basecalls 24
Removing adapter contamination 25
Summary Adapter/Quality Trimming 26 Important to trim because failure to do so might result in: Low mapping efficiency Mis-alignments Errors in methylation calls since adapters are methylated Basecall errors tend toward 50% (C:mC)

Opinion: If you could change one thing about Tustin, what would it be?
Lynn Gallardo, 32-year Tustin resident: "That a lot of stores are now saying 'Happy Holidays' and 'Season's Greetings,' instead of 'Merry Christmas." And that it's lost its rural feeling. There were lots of horses before and now there are condos."
James Rainey, 26-year Tustin resident: "I've seen the area nothing but improve, the cohesiveness, friendliness, just all around good. It's an all-American city. I wouldn't change anything about it. Like they said in the Marine Corps., if it ain't broke, don't fix it."
Antoinette Blackburn, Tustin resident: "More grocery stores closer to houses and apartments."
Kayla Blackburn, Tustin resident: "I want the schools to have bigger locker rooms."
Danielle Helms, Tustin resident: "I would add Internet safety programs to the schools and guest speakers."
Jennie Hakim, five-year Tustin resident: "Nothing at all. It's a very beautiful town, it's very walkable. It's a very European style of living, very slow and easy."
Vera Flores, long-time Tustin resident: "We would like to see the city cleaner. But Tustin has always been a beautiful city. You can't beat it."

Marsilio Ficino by Angela Voss
Book DescriptionMarsilio Ficino was one of the most influential humanist philosophers of the early Italian Renaissance. Though an ordained priest, he was also a practising astrologer and magician whose daunting life's work was to reconcile religious faith with philosophical reason which included integrating pagan magical practice with Christianity. In a lengthy introduction, editor Angela Voss puts Ficino's achievement in context as a complete re-visioning of traditional astrological practice and the beginning of a humanistic and psychological approach that prefigured contemporary holistic approaches to astrology as therapy.

Please help!
We are having a boy, and our surname ends with an 'a' and my DH is convinced that the boys name should end in a vowel.
We agree on the name:
But can't find any others. He won't settle for names that sound like they end in a vowel either...it's so hard.
Please suggest away... Don't hold back.

Poynter senior faculty member dies after illness
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) – Paul Pohlman, a senior faculty member at The Poynter Institute, died Wednesday in St. Petersburg after a brief illness.
According to Poynter's website, Pohlman, 70, started teaching at the institute in 1979, joining fulltime 10 years later as head of what was then called the Management Center. Since then, he led leadership programs and coordinated international training. He also consulted and advised as associate dean and interim dean.
Poynter Vice President Roy Peter Clark confirmed the death and said Pohlman was an excellent educator,
"He was an exceptionally good listener and often taught professionals how to do that in their own organizations," Clark said. "He was an expert in various roles that leaders play in their organizations. He was an encouraging teacher, and he was never a scold."
Pohlman was part of the team that helped establish the Institute for the Advancement of Journalism in Johannesburg, South Africa. He went on to teach in South Africa for many years.
Before going to work for Poynter, Pohlman was director of management development programs and newspaper management education at the University of Chicago, where he also earned a master's degree in history. His earned his undergraduate degree at Cornell College in Iowa.

LOGAN, Utah - Utah State's men and women's track & field teams will host the annual USU Mark Faldmo Invitational at Ralph Maughan Track Stadium in Logan, Utah on Friday and Saturday, April 19-20. A select number of Aggies will also travel to Walnut, Calif., for the Mt. SAC Relays, Distance Carnival and Invitational on Thursday through Saturday, April 18-20.
In the 2013 edition of the USU Mark Faldmo Invitational, USU will welcome in-state schools BYU, Utah (women), Utah Valley, Weber State (women), and Westminster (women), along with border foe Idaho State in the annual track & field meet. For more information on the USU Mark Faldmo Invitational including a complete event schedule, fans can visit www.UtahStateAggies.com.
Action will begin at Ralph Maughan Track Stadium on Friday at 4 p.m. (MT) with the women and men's hammer throws, followed by the men's javelin at 4:30 p.m. and the women and men's 5,000m run at 5 p.m. Saturday's action will start at 10 a.m. with the field events as the running events will begin at approximately 11:45 a.m. The United States National Anthem will be played at 11:20 a.m. All times are subject to change and the events will be moved ahead of schedule if possible.
"The thing I like about this weekend is the athletes get to showcase their talent in front of their home fans and families. I really like that," said veteran Utah State head coach Gregg Gensel. "The thing about sending athletes to compete at Mt. SAC, is we are able to showcase our talents and our program with the nation's best."

Sensitive Subjects: Research Choices and Presentational Challenges in Studying Immigrant Children and Families
Capps, Randy; Fix, Michael
New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, n141 p79-97 Aut 2013
We write from our own experience as researchers on the integration of immigrants and their children, describing several ethical and research considerations that we addressed. In one study we examined the use of public benefits among immigrant families. This study posed issues regarding the selection of which "benefits" should be considered as "welfare"; how to construct comparison groups of immigrants versus natives; and the political sensitivities in reporting widely high use rates of certain benefits, particularly Medicaid. A second study examined the effects of parental detention and deportation on children. It raised issues regarding identifying samples of immigrants to interview, creating trust with interviewees and protecting their confidentiality, and examining the views not just of advocates and families but others involved in the process (such as law enforcement officials) to ensure their perspectives were reflected in resulting reports. A third project examined the young children of Black immigrants--a group that varies widely in their modes of entry, recency of arrival, and levels of human capital. To avoid simplistic misinterpretations, we disaggregated data by national origin where possible and ensured that the results highlight both the risks and protective factors identified.

A debt consolidation loan is a type of personal loan that you can get from a lender, financial institution, or bank to help pay off your current debts and bills. It will combine all of your outstanding bills, including medical and credit card debts, and it replaces them with a single loan. In order for this to be an effective solution the new loan needs to be issued at a lower interest rate, even if is is just a slight difference. It is one of the many effective solutions that should be explored by anyone who is trying to get back on track. The loans can potentially offer debt relief and assistance to people that are struggling and that are trying to improve their overall financial condition. Banks and lenders are also more willing than ever before to provide help to consumers and allow them to cancel debt.
Absolutely. While it can, it is very important that the new loan has a lower interest rate and that you stay within any guidelines that come with it. A debt consolidation loan will only take care of your financial problem if you stop spending on foolish expenses. People will need to spend wisely, within a budget, and stop overspending. If you do not manage your budget better then this will not solve anything. It could be very possible that in two or three years you will just find yourself having the same problems and running your credit cards and bills up to the same levels that they were before you took out the debt consolidation loan.
They can be either secured or unsecured loans. If you have a secured loan then you will have to place collateral with the bank or lender in order. They will in effect force the borrower to do this in order for them to get the loan. Many borrowers will use their home or an automobile as security to take a loan. So these obviously tend to be higher risk and consumers should be very cautious before deciding to take out a secured loan.
On the other hand, unsecured debt consolidation loans do not require the borrower to use any collateral. So these come with much less risk. These loans are based entirely on the capacity, past payment practices and the character of the borrower to repay the loan.
If you have the challenges below, then probably yes. If you are not certain, then talk to a non-credit counseling agency for advice. More non-profit credit counseling.
You need to verify several things. In addition to potentially talking over your situation with a credit counselor, some additional items to consider before taking out debt consolidation loan include the following.
Yes, many card companies, such as Bank of America, offer their own debt consolidation loan programs. These are mostly focused on helping people pay off their credit card bills. Find out how to get a Bank of America debt consolidation loan.
Citigroup, sometimes still referred to as Citibank, also provides their own loan product that can be used to consolidate debts and pay off bills. More.
Many medical professionals, doctors, and hospitals will work with you and offer medical debt consolidation programs. These organizations will also offer other aid, including charity care, that can help you pay off all of your medical bills and debt. These types of plans are becoming more common with the escalating cost of health care. Learn more on medical debt consolidation.
Peer to Peer (P2P) lending sites, such as Lending Club, Prosper, and Zopa, offer a way for borrowers to get access to lower interest money to consolidate and pay off credit card debt, access loans for home mortgage payments, student bills, and auto loans. Many people, including regular everyday American families, investors and others loan money directly in peer-to-peer, or P2P, lending sites to borrowers and others who need help. Firms such as LendingClub.com facilitate the process, thus bypassing banks and credit-card issuers and offering people another way to consolidate their debts. More on peer to peer debt consolidation.
While it can be more difficult to consolidate or eliminate payday loans, there are steps you can take and some companies that can help. Usually the biggest challenge with salary advance loans is that the consumer has poor credit. So if this is the case, trying to get assistance with the payday loan is challenging due to that fact. However, there are some things you can try and places to turn to for help. Learn more.

Florida Boy Gets Sucked Into Drainpipe, Survives
via wikimedia commons
A kid got sucked into a drainpipe in Fort Myers during a storm.
One moment, he was splashing and playing in a water-filled ditch; the next, he was sucked into the netherworld. Like some damned Neil Gaiman novel.
Amazingly, the boy -- who survived the ordeal -- was underwater for at least a minute, according to fire rescue crews.
According to a neighbor, the drainpipe was submerged under the water, which is why no one saw it.

The pipe, which is about a foot and a half wide, created a small whirlpool and sucked the boy in. His friends immediately ran to his parents and other adults, who tried to rescue him.
The adults couldn't reach him and followed the drain line that led to the Caloosahatchee River, where they spotted the child screaming for them. The adults were able to get to the boy then and pulled him out of the water.
When emergency responders arrived on the scene, they found the boy with the others, doing just fine.
Apparently the incident happened during a birthday party, which apparently allowed children to play in street water.
Next time, maybe get a bounce house for the kids.
Or some pony rides.
A clown... something.

Karine Allouche Salanon
Angel investor and advisor to social ventures
I have always been very interested in the intersection of business and social good. As a graduate of EDHEC, Graduate School of Management in France, I have had the opportunity to lead global organizations with a diverse group of industry leaders with great missions, such as Symantec, Oracle, Microsoft, and most recently, Pearson. I am a member of Women's Leadership in Technology, advisory board member to EdTech Europe, and advisor to Silicon Valley startups in mobile and social ventures. With my depth of professional experience, I help businesses leverage global teams, create high-value solutions, and fully realize their market potential.
I joined GlobalEnglish because I could personally relate to the company's mission. I truly believe companies can accomplish their goals when they give a voice to talent. Encouraging businesses to find their paths through the global economy, helping business leaders attract, retain, and develop a global workforce--providing their teams with the skills to communicate, collaborate, and operate in Business English--is what is driving me.
I live in California's San Francisco Bay Area with my husband and two children. I also help people through social ventures that I help fund and coach, and lean-in circles that connect me to the diverse talent in my local area. But work-life balance is important. I also love to cook, and I am in constant training for my next triathlon.
Scott Ludeke
Vice President, Product
As the internet age races ahead, with the rapid expansion of marvelous enabling technologies (cloud hosting, open source libraries, APIs, etc.), I feel fortunate to be part of building a valued online solution. How great that we can deliver a useful experience over the internet to anyone on the planet, and also update it anytime!
Behind every great user experience is well-designed software and behind that, a great team. I'm thankful to have the opportunity to help shape and lead our excellent Product organization here at GlobalEnglish.
I live in San Francisco, California with my wife and three sons, and I like to bike, hike, and ski.
Valentine de Roubaix
Vice President, Customer Success
Though my career started in the Public sector, I've always worked in customer service somehow, just with different kinds of customers. I joined GlobalEnglish in early 2008 as an Account Manager for Latin America; I'm now leading our Customer Success Team. It is a crazy but immensely rewarding journey, as there is nothing better than knowing we're truly improving people's lives. Day after day, I continue to be amazed by the people I work with. There is so much talent and passion in our company!
I'm originally from Belgium, but I've had the chance to study and work abroad. I now live in Mexico City with my husband and our two-year-old son. My personal challenge for 2017 is to find or build room for a massive and still growing DVD collection. I'm a self-confessed chocoholic, an avid domino player…and at the top of my bucket list is my dream to go on a safari in Africa.
Dean Cooper
Vice President, Sales
Anyone that knows me would tell you that my favorite part of being at GlobalEnglish is when I'm with our customers. I have been working in the learning and talent management industry for more than two decades. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do and I believe that we can only be successful if our customers exceed and attain their own goals and objectives. Being considered a trusted advisor to so many of our customers is what we strive to achieve every day.
I have spent the last 8 years working as part of our global sales team, being based and working in London, New York and San Francisco. During this time I have worked with hundreds of our customers, across every continent to deliver communication program excellence to hundreds of thousands of learners around the world.
British born, a graduate of Manchester University, and now living in California. I am an avid swimmer and enjoy being outdoors. I speak some French but I'm always looking to improve.
Giancarlo Martini (aka GC)
Sales Director, EMEA
I am responsible for building the EMEA business for GlobalEnglish. Throughout my 9-year tenure with GlobalEnglish, I have built the EMEA business development team, developed unique business strategies for the EMEA market, and incubated new business models. Additionally, I developed strategic long-lasting partnerships for GlobalEnglish among Fortune 500 customers across Europe and the Middle East.
I strive to deliver high performing solutions for our customers, embracing the core values of integrity, innovation, and growth. As well as being the recipient of numerous professional excellence awards for both personal and team attainments, I continue to work with the best and brightest in the leadership development field. My projects have led to two Brandon Hall Gold Awards (with Intesa Sanpaolo and Capgemini). I hold an MBA and a bachelor's degree in international business, and I have more than 15 years of experience as an investment planning professional focused on finance and technology.
Additionally, I enjoy coaching and challenging my peers, team members, and partners to put the needs of the customer first in making business decisions.
