The Media's Not Biased; It's Your Perception
Are you convinced that President Bush is treated unfairly in the media? Or, are you furious at the little skepticism the media had about the proposed invasion of Iraq? Political liberals and conservatives, alike, often complain that the media treats them, their candidates or their positions unfairly or unequally. Tien-Tsung Lee, a professor at the Edward R. Murrow School of Communication at Washington State University, argues, in his dissertation, that in most cases, it's not ideology that is the perception of bias. Rather, the media is largely centrist and objective, and its those who read, watch, and listen to the media that interpret bias from where there is largely none.
A long list of conservatives, from Rush Limbaugh to conservative politicians, argue that the media is pro-Democratic, pro-abortion, pro-labor, anti-business, anti-Christian, and, probably till recently, anti-national defense. Tien-Tsung Lee notes that in all cases, there is no scientific evidence, or its insufficient, confirming these biases. One other primary complaint from conservatives is that most journalists are Democratic. According to Lee, this is true. Nonetheless, Lee added, there is no conclusive evidence that journalists' ideological and partisan opinions influence their reporting.
The argument that political liberals often present is that media owners and editors are often Republicans and, therefore, its in their interest to support, and not criticize, government and business. They also argue that, because much of the media is dependent upon advertising and because most journalists are from the upper-middle-class and the dependence of journalists on news sources such as government officials and conservative think tanks, they're encouraged not to be critical of government or business.
David Domke, a communications professor at the University of Washington, notes that these arguments are only valid given the right context. Consistently, however, over a longer period of time, no bias has been found. "Some scholars have found a liberal media bias. Other scholars have found a conservative one. I think what it largely comes down to is context. What issues are being covered, in what context? You have to take into account these contextual situations. Journalists who examine a variety of situations, variety of issues, variety of people, would find that there is no consistent media bias ideologically. However, in any single topic, person, you could well find media coverage that is heavily favorable to one topic or one person," said Domke.
Using this as a premise, that no consistent media bias has been found, Tien-Tsung Lee argues that it's the consumers of media information that are finding bias. That is, "no matter how objective and balanced a report is, observers are going to perceive a bias," wrote Lee in an email interview. To illustrate this point, he uses an example of a ball that's on a center line. If viewed from the right, the viewer only sees the ball's right side. If viewed from the left, the viewer only sees the ball's left's side. In support of his argument, Lee points out that those who support political groups or causes, those who identify themselves as on the right or left, are likely to see the media as unfair or hostile to their cause and favorable to their opponents. In experimental study, for instance, pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian groups were likely to say that the same media content, about the 1982 war in Lebanon, would cause neutral viewers to become unsympathetic to their side and favorable towards the other.
Nonetheless, as Lee notes, the media, of course, is not always objective. Its coverage of the lead-up to the invasion of Iraq, for instance, he says was biased in favor of the Bush administration's position. "I don't think the U.S. mainstream broadcast media have done a satisfactory job in their coverage of the war, or the discussion leading to it," wrote Lee. Nonetheless, favoritism towards one political party or ideology, Lee writes, isn't consistent. For instance, a 1965 study of Time magazine found that they were negative towards President Truman, a Democrat, positive towards President Eisenhower, a Republican, and balanced towards Kennedy, also a Democrat.
To test his thesis, Lee used two methods, he examined studies of how ideology relates to perception of the media, and he designed a questionnaire that he sent to political journalists. His conclusions regarding ideology confirmed the Hostile Media Theory. That is, the more ideological you are, to the left but especially to the right, the more likely you are to perceive media bias. Conservatives, for instance, are more likely than liberals and moderates to believe that the news media have a bias. Relatedly, Republicans are more likely to perceive bias than Democrats and Independents.
When Lee designed the questionnaire, he was interested in testing to see if, what others studies had confirmed, that most journalists are politically liberal. In addition to questions that asked about how they perceive how their ownership affects their reporting and how they perceive the objectivity of other political journalists, the study used a scale to test the journalists ideology. Rather than conservative and liberal, there were two others: libertarian and populist. A liberal was for personal liberties and against the free market. A populist was also against free markets and against personal liberties. A conservative was for free markets and against personal liberties. And, a libertarian was for a free market and for personal liberties. Using this scale, he found that most journalists identified themselves as libertarians. Unlike a traditional liberal, these journalists favor a smaller government, tax cuts, and what conservatives often mention, personal responsibility. Also, because of the strong tradition of objectivity, of presenting as many viewpoints as there are, Lee hasn't found that there is any relation between a journalist's ideology and their reporting.
One problem with Lee's conclusion, David Domke argues, is using the term "media bias". "A theory bias of media bias would suggest that there's something about the covering of events that could be true or not true, and that things that are not true are biased," said Domke. This, Domke explains, is often impossible. What often happens, Domke added, is that rather than an objective understanding of an event, circumstances develop that cause the media to favor one side. Like Lee, however, he doesn't believe that the media is ideologically biased, but he believes the circumstances and the favoritism is different for every news story.
What many scholars do, Domke notes, to avoid using the unclear definition of "bias" is to abandon the word and define another, such as "favoritism". The advantage of this, Domke explains, is that rather than assume that an objective reality can be agreed upon, it's possible to measure balance in news coverage. It's possible, for instance, to measure if one side receives more news coverage than another.
Another problem may be that the journalist's have self-identified their ideology. Because objectivity in journalism is a practiced tradition that most journalists consider important, it could have been that journalists were influenced to not state their ideology but rather consider themselves centrists. "I think among journalists there's a population that wants to think of themselves as centrists, so they're more likely to present themselves that way; they might not be lying but convinced themselves that they are," said Domke. This criticism, Domke added, could apply to all studies that require journalists to self-identify their ideology.
Lastly, according to Domke, Lee's argument seems to be implying that journalists are exempt from responsibility. "I do believe that there's a role for journalists's in the issue of accuracy. I do believe that journalists can inaccurately report something, to leave the idea of bias only in the mind's of the beholder I think absolves journalist's of that responsibility," said Domke.

General Question
Good vegetarian bean dishes?
Asked by occ (4036)
May 29th, 2011
I've been trying to add more protein to my vegetarian diet. Making big dishes over the weekend and bringing healthy lunch with me to work. I've made lots of lentil soups and black bean soups, and chili. Any other delicious bean dishes or bean salads that I should try? I usually use canned beans (other than for lentils which I make on the stovetop) but I also have a slowcooker if anyone has slowcooker ideas. Thanks!

1/8 Sheet
Arches 140#CP
This painting is from a photo I took on Cape Lookout, North Carolina - that tip of the beach that reaches into the Atlantic Ocean across from Cape Lookout Lighthouse. We followed this path through the live oaks of this National Seashore Park, enjoying the relative quiet and coolness of the shady areas.
I post this today especially for those glorious giants I studied for all my college work, and which also line the streets of Charleston and maritime forests of the South Carolina's lowcountry. I pass many of these trees as I walk from my motel room to Mike's hospital room - and I always admire that unusual horizontal branching that is so characteristic of live oaks.
We had a bit of a set back yesterday after seeing the surgeon, and though all is well, progress has slowed a bit and we are still waiting for Mike's body to respond to food a lot better than its been doing. It's a very challenging waiting game right now.
Once more than you for all your thoughts and prayers .. I know it won't be too much longer before we call can head back to North Carolina.

How did I miss this??? It's gorgeous and you know how I love trees, old, new, and in between -- in all seasons. The scene is lovely. I can just picture sitting there sketching, painting or even reading a book. Not today though. We went from 80 and sunny yesterday to 55 and rain today. Brrr. Quite a change.
Thanks for keeping us up to date on Mike and yourself too!
Big hugs,
Lorraine - 15 September, 2011

Oneida Indian Nation of New York v. County of Oneida, 414 U.S. 661 (1974), is a landmark decision by the United States Supreme Court concerning aboriginal title in the United States. The original suit in this matter was the first modern-day Native American land claim litigated in the federal court system rather than before the Indian Claims Commission. It was also the first to go to final judgement.[1]
The Supreme Court held that there is federal subject-matter jurisdiction for possessory land claims brought by Indian tribes based upon aboriginal title, the Nonintercourse Act, and Indian treaties. In delivering the opinion of the Court, Associate Justice Byron White wrote that jurisdiction for such suits arose both from 28 U.S.C. § 1331, conferring jurisdiction for cases arising under the Constitution, laws, or treaties of the United States and 28 U.S.C. § 1362, conferring similar jurisdiction to cases brought by Indian tribes regardless of the amount in controversy.
The case is often referred to as Oneida I because it is the first of three times the Oneida Indian Nation reached the Supreme Court in litigating its land rights claims. It was followed by County of Oneida v. Oneida Indian Nation of New York State (Oneida II) (1985), rejecting all of the affirmative defenses raised by the counties in the same action, and City of Sherrill v. Oneida Indian Nation of New York (Sherrill) (2005), rejecting the tribe's attempt in a later lawsuit to reassert tribal sovereignty over parcels of land reacquired by the tribe in fee simple.
District Court[edit]
In 1970, the Oneida Indian Nation of New York State and Oneida Indian Nation of Wisconsin filed suit against Oneida County, New York and Madison County, New York in the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York. The Oneidas alleged that vast swathes of tribal lands had been conveyed to the state of New York in violation of the Nonintercourse Act and three Indian treaties: the Treaty of Fort Stanwix (1784), the Treaty of Fort Harmar (1789), and the Treaty of Canandaigua (1794). Although the complaint named over 6,000,000 acres (24,000 km2) conveyed in such manner, the suit involved only the portion of that land held by the two counties. As damages, the tribes asked only for the fair rental value of the lands from the period January 1, 1968 through December 31, 1969.
The District Court held that the complaint asserted only state law claims, implicating federal law only indirectly, and thus granted the motion to dismiss under the well-pleaded complaint rule.
Circuit Court[edit]
A divided panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed the dismissal. Chief Judge Henry Friendly, for the Second Circuit, held that the assertion of jurisdiction "shatters on the rock of the 'well-pleaded complaint' rule." The Second Circuit placed weight upon Taylor v. Anderson, 234 U.S. 74 (1914), holding that there was no federal jurisdiction for an ejectment action that alleged wrongful alienation of lands allotted to Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians.
Opinion of the Court[edit]
The Supreme Court reversed. Justice White noted "Accepting the premise of the Court of Appeals that the case was essentially a possessory action, we are of the view that the complaint asserted a current right to possession conferred by federal law, wholly independent of state law."[2] The Court distinguished Taylor v. Anderson on these grounds
Here, the right to possession itself is claimed to arise under federal law in the first instance. Allegedly, aboriginal title of an Indian tribe guaranteed by treaty and protected by statute has never been extinguished. In Taylor, the plaintiffs were individual Indians, not an Indian tribe; and the suit concerned lands allocated to individual Indians, not tribal rights to lands....
In the present case, however, the assertion of a federal controversy does not rest solely on the claim of a right to possession derived from a federal grant of title whose scope will be governed by state law. Rather, it rests on the not insubstantial claim that federal law now protects, and has continuously protected from the time of the formation of the United States, possessory rights to tribal lands, wholly apart from the application of state law principles which normally and separately protect a valid right of possession.[3]
The majority emphasized the supremacy of federal Indian law to state law:
There has been recurring tension between federal and state law; state authorities have not easily accepted the notion that federal law and federal courts must be deemed the controlling considerations in dealing with the Indians. Fellows v. Blacksmith, The New York Indians, United States v. Forness, and the Tuscarora litigation are sufficient evidence that the reach and exclusivity of federal law with respect to reservation lands and reservation Indians did not go unchallenged; and it may be that they are to some extent challenged here. But this only underlines the legal reality that the controversy alleged in the complaint may well depend on what the reach and impact of the federal law will prove to be in this case.[4]
Because the District Court had disposed on the case on a motion to dismiss, the Supreme Court reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
Justices Rehnquist and Powell concurred separately, emphasizing their understanding that the majority's holding would not apply to ejectment actions brought by non-Indians. The concurrence concluded: "The opinion for the Court today should give no comfort to persons with garden-variety ejectment claims who, for one reason or another, are covetously eyeing the door to the federal courthouse."[5]
Subsequent developments[edit]
On remand, the District Court and Second Circuit rejected the counties' affirmative defenses and awarded money damages. This time, the counties appealed to the Supreme Court, which again granted certiorari. The impact of Oneida I was summed up, in the interpretation of Allan Van Gestal, the lawyer for Oneida County, in his argument in Oneida II:
This case is a test case, having been so designated by the plaintiffs, having been so tried by the courts below.... The 1974 opinion in this case has already spawned a vast number of Indian land claims. A number of cases are pending throughout the eastern states and southern states, citing the 1974 jurisdictional opinion as if it were an opinion on the merits of the issues. That case, indeed, has already been cited 162 times since 1974.[6]
County of Oneida v. Oneida Indian Nation of New York State, 470 U.S. 226 (1985), affirmed the rejection of the counties' affirmative defenses, leaving the damages award intact. The larger portion of the Oneida claim, to the 6-million-acre (24,000 km2) tract, was rejected by the Second Circuit in 1988 on the grounds that the Confederation Congress Proclamation of 1783 had neither the authority nor the intent to limit the acquisition of Indian lands within the borders of US states.[7]

Tables in the back of the room offered novelty items for

of the titles.
As I watched clowns compete, I remembered my first visit to

"Yeah, right." I flashed a skeptical grin.
Fred led me to a hotel shop where I was gifted an $800

I'm using GnomeSword on Ubuntu, and am wondering why there isn't a Barnes Notes on the Old Testament module -- only one for the New Testament? e-Sword has a free "Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible" module which includes both OT and NT (link). Does anyone know why the Barnes OT Commentary is not available as a SWORD module? I'm also a software developer, and would be happy to take on this work if it is just a question of someone putting one together. I understand from the FAQ that we're discouraged from converting e-Sword (for example) modules into SWORD ones in case copyright issues are breached -- otherwise I'd have started already. If it is possible/legal for me to make one, can anyone direct me in the correct way of going about it? |

If you can find a quality, authoritative e-text that is unencumbered with copyright or license claims, or you are able to scan one, this would be a good addition. (By and large, if we don't have it it is because we haven't found such a source.) If it is encumbered and you can get permission for CrossWire to distribute, that's good too. The pedigree of the e-text is important. We need to "original". Many times, an e-text is a copy of a copy of a copy..., each with potential changes. Sometimes one of these is encumbered and by implication taints the following. If you think you have found something worthy, discuss it on the members-only mailing list sword-devel. No sense going to the extra effort if we are able to find out that we can't use it. Even though we can't use it, you might be able to. We won't provide help on the obtaining of encumbered e-texts. But we can help other wise. Our wiki (http://www.crosswire.org/wiki) has extensive information on how to create modules. If our information is lacking, we'll be glad to improve it. |

Actually, it looks like we already have a copy in beta: http://www.crosswire.org/sword/modules/ModDis...ommentaries&beta=true I don't recall where it came from or when, but it's there. (The date in the .conf is incorrect--I just set that today because it had none.) |

This is a question I have. I note the full Notes on the Bible text is still not available from the repository. A beta copy does not appear to exists on the link given also. Does anyone know why it was not continued? Thanks. |

Washington's Blog
March 3, 2011
Because of the fear that the radiation from the Japanese nuclear meltdowns will hit the Western United states (see this and this), potassium iodide has sold out in most health food and supplement stores in many California, Oregon and Washington locations.
People know that it's good to take potassium iodide to protect against radiation, to help protect against thyroid cancer (potassium iodide does not protect any other organs).
But taking potassium iodide when there is no radiation can actually damage the thyroid gland … at least in some individuals. A doctor told me that potassium iodide is given to people with hyperthyroid disease in order to partially kill the thyroid – i.e. to lower thyroid function.
Indeed, the New York Times notes:
Experts in Japan and the United States say the country is now facing a cascade of accumulating problems that suggest that radioactive releases of steam from the crippled plants could go on for weeks or even months.
Stock up with Fresh Food that lasts with eFoodsDirect (AD)
You can't take potassium iodide for months on end.
Ideally, buy potassium iodide now, and monitor radiation levels by looking at real-time monitoring networks such as this and this. Don't take iodide unless and until elevated radiation levels hit your area.
Whatever you do, don't take more than the recommended dosage. The Centers for Disease Control and the FDA recommend:
Each 24 hours that one is exposed to radiation.
Sees this for further details.

I try not to make a habit of posting the same pictures over again, but I like this shot and it has been a while since I originally used it. Anyway, if you live around NYC and you are interested in Frankenbikes (and who isn't a little bit interested) check out the Mutant Bicycle Mechanics class at 3rd Ward in Brooklyn. You can get information about the program on the website, but here is the official description from Rob, the education Coordinator at 3rd Ward:
Mutant Bicycle Mechanics
Instructors: Carlos Valpeoz & David Messinio
Location: Metal Shop
Tuesdays May 22, 29, June 5, 12, 19, 26 7-10pm
Last Day to Register: May 16
Members $360 / Non-Members $450
$40 materials fee due May 16 (This covers basic materials; students will be encouraged to bring in scrap parts as their projects progress. No registration cancellations after this date)
This course will introduce students to an entirely new aspect of bicycle culture. The focus is to allow the students to fully understand the mechanics of a bicycle while allowing them to build their own mutant bike out of raw steel and recycled bicycle parts (i.e. tall bikes, tricycles, chopper bikes, tandem bikes, bike carriages, etc.)
Students will be persuaded to conceptualize at home, bring in their ideas, rationalize, and create whatever is feasible in class. With the aide of introductory machining and welding processes, students will be able to use their imagination and response to raw and pre-existing material to create a form of transportation that is aesthetically sound and entirely functional. A 6 day shop pass will be included in the price of the class so that student can work on their own during the term of the class. This course is an introduction to mechanics of bicycle components, bicycle maintenance, welding and light bicycle fabrication. People with any or no experience in these areas are encouraged to attend this class."

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources

- - Clown committed suicide :(
Clown committed suicide :( So my black ocellaris clown fish committed suicide last night. Jumped out the top and i found him shriveled up on the floor. Can i get a normal ocellaris clown the orage type? To go with the remaining black one i have? |
well why would people tell me to run an open top tank for gas exchange? IDK who to belive! |
Generally some sort of surface agitation such as a hob filter or an airstone works better then simply sitting water. Your specific situation may have needed that choice however. Was there any specific reason you were told to have an open tank as opposed to using other methods to exchange gas? |
no? just that it is good for gas exchange.... |
use a screen or netting, but this will effect your lighting. glass will effect lighting too unless you keep it constantly clean of salt creep. the best bet would prob. be to build your own wooden box for a canopy to hang your lights in but keep the back side open to staple a screen on, that will allow for more then plenty gas exchange, as well as heat exchange for your lights ( unless they are halides which may need a fan in the canopy ) if you have a sump, the water draining to the sump will provide all the gas exchange you need. powerheads aimed slightly at the surface will also do this. make sure to get a clown smaller then the one you have. |
What kind of netting? And what would have chased her out? I got another female last night because my little guy seemed very lonely. Swimming around like crazy. I also picked up a green dragonet! :) She is super pretty. And is active and plump. Also is foraging off the live rock. |
1 Attachment(s) Also got 2 new lights! They are top secret as they are not on the market yet and the guy asked me to not say that he gave them to me for free. So i wont disclose his company. But they are mr16 LEDs. 3 LEDs in each bulb specifically made for corals(all on the blue spectrum). Here is a pic when i first turned them on. After just an hour of them being on my zoanthids opened up a lot more! And all of my star polyps finally came out! Ill get an updated pic of all the corals opening tonight. Needless to say these lights are amazing! |
2 Attachment(s) New clown, yellow clown goby, and new green dragonet! |

LinuxTag 2009: Resource Management with OpenVZ
OpenVZ project leader Kir Kolyshkin clarified at LinuxTag 2009 that the software also lends itself to Linux resource management.
The facts are clear, Koyshkin said at the outset: every computer has but finite resources such as CPU time, memory, hard disk size and I/O, and network I/O. Administrators are interested in protecting these resources from DoS attacks so that they can continue providing QoS or simple processing.
The Linux kernel already provides resource management tools, said Kolyshkin: disk quotas, nice and renice, the real-time priority queue and limits on CPU time with ulimit -c. Ulimit alone controls 16 different parameters. However, Kolyshkin doesn't find this pallet to be enough. Some limits can't be set and the others are done so at login and can't subsequently be regulated. This is where Kolyshkin brought OpenVZ into the picture. The software allows creating multiple isolated userspace instances, called containers, on a single kernel. Webhosters, for example, could use these containers for their services. From a resource management viewpoint, containers are simply groups of processes.
OpenVZ brings its own resource control mechanisms, called beancounters, that have access to 20 parameters modifiable for process groups at runtime. These groups can be containers, users or applications. For example, the Apache 2 webserver has many processes that could more sensibly combined into application groups. OpenVZ categorizes these user beancounters (UBCs) on its wiki page.
Kolyshkin revealed that further mainline kernel control mechanisms are available through control groups (cgroups) developed over the years by the big iron folks at Bull and SGI. Paul Menage was responsible for bringing cgroups into the Linux kernel for grouping processes for binding memory controllers. Cgroups, however, don't offer as many features as OpenVZ's beancounters, although Kolyshkin wishes for future OpenVZ features such as shared pages accounting, I/O priorities per cgroup and checkpoint/recreate. The latter freezes the state of a group and is used by container or virtualization software such as OpenVZ and Xen for live migration. Further details are in the /usr/src/linux/Documentation/cgroups/* and /controllers/* directories of the kernel source code.
Kolyshkin would love to see the OpenVZ container features integrated into the mainline kernel, but that will "take years." But he's thinking of the future: integration of checkpoint/recreate in the official Linux kernel.
