This case is to determine if retailers can be punished for selling M rated games to minors. In essence, M rated games would be treated like cigarettes and alcohol were selling it to a minor would be illegal, and buying a it for a minor would be illegal, with punishments for both. The whole defense of the gaming industry is that video games are an art and protected by the 1st amendment like books or movies. The arguments have been made, and the decision will be made soon.

Thank you
Thank you for the welcomes and the responses.
He and I have discussed polyamory, and I feel like he does have a good understanding of it. However, I respect and understand that he prefers the relationship we currently have. I would never ask him to be someone he is not or push my new ideas on him. But, I will definitely open the discussion again and I feel I can safely explore my feelings with him.
I would say at this point I am unsure of what my long term needs are. But, the thought of losing him would be devastating for me. I may not be 100% satisfied in life, but I've never personally met anyone who is either. I even feel selfish for possibly wanting more. I don't even know what exactly I'm missing. I'm still trying to sort it all out and I hope to do that here by reading what other people have gone through and their thought process, especially early on through the initial confusion. Anyway, thanks again for the responses. More to talk about and more to think about.

Tunisians drive leader from power in mass uprising
By ELAINE GANLEY and BOUAZZA BEN BOUAZZA, Associated Press Jan. 14, 2010
TUNIS, Tunisia – Protesters enraged over soaring unemployment and
corruption drove Tunisian President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali from power
Friday after 23 years of iron-fisted rule, an unprecedented popular
uprising in a region dominated by strongmen who do not answer to their
Tunisians buoyant over Ben Ali's ouster immediately worried, however,
about what's next: the caretaker leadership of the prime minister who took
control, and the role of the army in the transition.
The upheaval took place after weeks of escalating unrest fueled partly by
social media and cell phones, as thousands of demonstrators from all walks
of life rejected Ben Ali's promises of change and mobbed the capital of
Tunis to demand his ouster in the country's largest demonstrations in
At least 23 people have been killed in the riots, according to the
government, but opposition members put the death toll at more than three
times that.
On Friday, police repeatedly clashed with protesters, some of whom climbed
onto the entrance roof of the dreaded Interior Ministry, widely believed
for years to be a place where the regime's opponents were tortured.
With clouds of tear gas and black smoke drifting over the city's
whitewashed buildings, Prime Minister Mohammed Ghannouchi went on state
television to announce that he was assuming power in this North African
nation previously known mostly for its wide sandy beaches and ancient
"I take over the responsibilities temporarily of the leadership of the
country at this difficult time to help restore security," Ghannouchi said
in a solemn statement on state television. "I promise ... to respect the
constitution, to work on reforming economic and social issues with care
and to consult with all sides."
The president promised legislative elections in six months, a pledge that
appeared to open at least the possibility of a new government.
President Barack Obama said he applauded the courage and dignity of
protesting Tunisians, and urged all parties to keep calm and avoid

Tunisian air space was closed and the president's whereabouts were a
mystery. It was far from certain that his ouster would calm the streets.
Isolated gunfire broke out sporadically Friday night and a state of
emergency was in effect. European tour companies moved thousands of
tourists out of the country.
"My first reaction is relief," said Dr. Souha Naija, a resident
radiologist at Charles Nicole Hospital. "He's gone ... I finally feel
"They got the message. The people don't want a dictator." However, she
voiced concern for the future because, officially at least, Ben Ali
vacated power only temporarily.
"It's ambiguous," she said.
Ben Ali's downfall sent a potentially frightening message to autocratic
leaders across the Arab world. He deftly managed the economy of his small
country of 10 million better than many other Middle Eastern nations
grappling with sclerotic economies and booming, young populations, turning
it into a beach haven for tourists and beacon of stability in volatile
North Africa. There was a lack of civil rights and little or no freedom of
speech, but a better quality of life for many than in neighboring
countries like Algeria and Libya.
He had won frequent praise from abroad for presiding over reforms to make
the economy more competitive and attract business; growth last year was at
3.1 percent.
But unemployment was officially measured at 14 percent, but far higher
among the young — 52 percent of Tunisia's 10 million people — and despair
among job-seeking young graduates was palpable.
Arabs across the region celebrated on Twitter, Facebook and blogs at news
of the Tunisian uprising.
Thousands of Tweets congratulating the Tunisian people flooded the
Internet and many people changed their profile pictures to Tunisian flags.
Egyptian activists opposed to President Hosni Mubarak's three-decade
regime also looked to the events in Tunisia with hope.
About 50 Egyptians gathered outside the Tunisian embassy in Cairo Friday
to celebrate with singing and dancing. They chanted, "Ben Ali, tell
Mubarak a plane is waiting for him too!"
Unconfirmed rumors about Ben Ali's location reached such a fevered pitch
that the governments of France and Malta — just two of several countries
where Ben Ali was speculated to be heading — put out statements saying
they have had no requests to accommodate him
The 74-year-old leader came to power in a bloodless palace coup in 1987.
He took over from a man called formally President-for-Life — Habib
Bourguiba, the founder of modern-day Tunisia who set the Muslim country on
a pro-Western course after independence from France in 1956.
Ben Ali removed Bourguiba from office for "incompetence," saying he had
become too old, senile and sick to rule. Ben Ali promised then that his
leadership would "open the horizons to a truly democratic and evolved
political life."
But after a brief period of reforms, Tunisia's political evolution stopped.
Ben Ali consistently won elections with overwhelmingly questionable
tallies: In 2009, he was re-elected for a fifth five-year term with 89
percent of the vote. Beforehand, he had warned opponents they would face
legal retaliation if they questioned the vote's fairness.
U.S. diplomatic cables released by WikiLeaks have called Tunisia a "police
state" and described the corruption there, saying Ben Ali had lost touch
with his people. Social networks like Facebook helped spread the comments
to the delight of ordinary Tunisians, who have complained about the same
issues for years.
Under Ben Ali, most opposition parties were illegal. Amnesty International
said authorities infiltrated human rights groups and harassed dissenters.
Reporters Without Borders described Ben Ali as a "press predator" who
controlled the media.
The riots started after an educated but jobless 26-year-old committed
suicide in mid-December when police confiscated the fruits and vegetables
he was selling without a permit. His desperate act hit a nerve, sparked
copycat suicides and focused generalized anger against the regime into a
widespread, outright revolt.
The president tried vainly to hold onto power. On Thursday night he went
on television to promise not to run for re-election in 2014 and slashed
prices on key foods such as sugar, bread and milk. A day later he declared
the state of emergency, dissolving the government and promising new
legislative elections within six months.
Hundreds of police with shields and riot gear moved into the peaceful
demonstration nearly six hours after it began on the capital's main Friday
in front of the Interior Ministry. Helmeted police fired dozens of rounds
of tear gas and kicked and clubbed unarmed protesters — one of whom
cowered on the ground, covering his face.
An AP Television News reporter heard gunfire in the center of the Tunisian
capital late Friday afternoon, in addition to the popping of tear gas
A few youths were spotted throwing stones, but most demonstrated calmly.
Protesters were of all ages and from all walks of life, from students
holding mid-street sit-ins to doctors in white coats to black-robed
lawyers waving posters.
"A month ago, we didn't believe this uprising was possible," said Beya
Mannai, a geology professor at the University of Tunis. "But the people
rose up."
The prime minister suggested that Ben Ali had willingly handed over
control,but the exact circumstances of his removal from power were
The prime minister did not say anything about a coup or about the army
being in charge, saying only that he was taking over while the president
is "temporarily indisposed."
"Under Article 56 of the Constitution that holds that in a case of
temporary incapacity, the president can delegate by decree his power to
the prime minister. Given the temporary incapacity of the President to
carry out his duties, I take over the responsibilities temporarily of the
leadership of the country at this difficult time to help restore
security," Ghannouchi said.
Ghannouchi, 69, is a trained economist who has been a longtime close ally
of Ben Ali. Prime minister since 1999, he is one of the best-known faces
of Tunisia's government. He also has served as the country's minister for
international cooperation and its minister of foreign investment.
A founder of the main legal opposition party said the dramatic
developments do not amount to a coup d'etat.
"It's an unannounced resignation," Nejib Chebbi said by telephone. To
declare a permanent absence of a head of state, such as in a coup,
elections would have to be held within 60 days, he said. "So they declare
a temporary vacating of power."
Tour operator Thomas Cook said it was evacuating 3,800 British, Irish and
German vacationers from Tunisia as a precaution.
In Sudan in 1985, a collapsing economy and other grievances sparked a
popular uprising, although the government was eventually ousted by a
military coup.
However, the closest parallel in the broader Middle East comes from Iran —
which is not an Arab nation — where mass demonstrations helped topple the
Shah and usher in the establishment of the Islamic Republic in 1979.
Tunisia's giant neighbor Algeria saw huge protests before it was shaken by
a military coup in 1992, with a five-man leadership put in place after the
army canceled the nation's first multiparty legislative elections that a
Muslim fundamentalist party was poised to win. The party, the Islamic
Salvation Front, became a vehicle for popular dissent.
There were also massive demonstrations in Lebanon in 2005, dubbed the
"Cedar Revolution," but those were directed against Syrian influence in
the country and not the Lebanese government per se. The protests led to
the withdrawal of Syrian forces from Lebanon and the resignation of
Lebanon's pro-Syrian prime minister and fresh elections.
Al-Qaida's North African offshoot appeared to try to capitalize on the
Tunisian unrest, offering its support for protesters this week. There has
been no sign of Islamic extremist involvement in the rioting.

Yvonne Wade
09/20/2012 Harris Tabbed To Lead Cross Country SquadFormer All-American and US Outdoor Finalist will coach the cross country team this fall. One of the top up-and-coming coaches in the region, Yvonne Scott-Wade was hired as the fourth head coach in UNLV Track and Field history in 2007. Given the task of turning the Rebel program around, Scott-Wade in her first head coaching position made it her priority to recruit student-athletes that were committed to striving for excellence both academically and athletically. "I believe that UNLV track & field and cross country have the potential to be very strong teams both in the Mountain West Conference and in the nation. All it takes are the right group of individuals who are committed to the hard work that it takes to get there." Before Scott-Wade entered the world of collegiate coaching she was a member of the Japanese National Team from 1996-2004. She qualified for the 1996 Summer Games in Atlanta and then the 2000 Sydney Olympics in the 100-meter hurdles, where she reached the semifinals. She was an eight-time Japanese national champion, winning the 100-meter hurdles six consecutive years from 1995-2000 and then twice more in 2002 and `03. She is the Japanese national record holder in both the 60-meter hurdles and 100-meter hurdles. As a student-athlete at the University of Colorado she earned All-American honors in 1996 and was a three-time Big Eight champion in the 100-meter hurdles. In 1996, she set the school record in the 100-meter hurdles (12.98) and recorded the second-fastest time in the 100 meters (11.68) on her way to becoming an NCAA All-American. Before moving to Las Vegas, Scott-Wade spent five years as an assistant coach at Sacramento State and Long Beach State. While at LBSU, she coached standout sprinter Brent Gray to numerous school records (100m: 10.24, 200m: 20.51) and NCAA All-American status. In her first season at the helm of the UNLV program, Scott-Wade helped mentor a 4x100 relay team that qualified for the 2008 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships. She followed that by coaching a pair of individuals who qualified for the 2009 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships in the 200m and the 100-meter hurdles. Since her inaugural year leading the UNLV track & field program, Scott-Wade and her coaching staff have overseen five outdoor relay squads and 19 (five indoor and 14 outdoor) honorees earn All-Mountain West Conference recognition. They've coached 17 individuals (19 times) and five relay squads in the NCAA Preliminaries, formerly known as the NCAA West Regionals. Four of those individuals and one relay team have advanced to the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships. In 2011, Amanda Bingson and Chelsea Cassulo finished fourth and fifth, respectively, in the hammer throw at the outdoor finale to earn NCAA All-American recognition. Six events in UNLV's record book have been reset under Scott-Wade's tenure. The indoor record book has seen the 3,000 meter, 5,000 meter, 60-meter hurdles and high jump marks reset once each, while the weight throw figure has been rewritten twice under Scott. The outdoor record book has witnessed the hammer throw broken numerous times by Bingson. "Yvonne has done a great job of stabilizing the program and is beginning to rebuild it," said UNLV Senior Associate Athletics Director Terry Cottle. "She is a tireless worker and the future of Rebel track is very bright with her and her staff." In addition to the success on the track, Scott-Wade takes great pride in the accomplishments her Rebels have in the classroom. Her athletes have been awarded 46 MWC All-Academic honors and 22 MWC Scholar-Athlete honors helping them pave their way to 2010 and 2011 NCAA All-Academic Team recognition. Scott-Wade earned her bachelor's degree in sociology with a minor in ethnic studies from Colorado in 1996. She then returned to the classroom some years later to earn her master's degree in physical education with an emphasis in sports administration from UNLV in 2010. In 2011, Scott-Wade was awarded the Nell C. Jackson Award for outstanding contributions towards women and girls in sport. She is married to Larry Wade, a former elite hurdler and member of both Texas A&M's and Big 12 Conference's respective Halls of Fame, and has a son Jordan. |

Improving Social Networks
Andy Mitchell wonders why so many social networks leave him feeling a little cold, and he suggests some ways to improve things.
I would like to add perhaps the most important one. Whenadding friends to one's network, they should be added to a group, such as my friends from university, former colleagues at CAA, parents of my kids' friends, etc. That way, messages, photos, ideas, etc. can be share with like-minded people who share more of a common history, and their input or replies can be read by and only by people who are interested. It also would also us to be more intimate in what we say.

wikiHow to Maintain a Hydroponic Nutrient Reservoir
A solid foundation for maintaining your hydroponic nutrient solution reservoir! A reservoir forms the center of every single type of hydroponic growing system. These basics give you effective control over every system type. Be a successful hydroponic gardener by effectively maintaining your nutrient solution reservoir.
1These notes are for a wide range of vegetables used for human consumption..
2A wide range of vegetable types need a wide range of nutrient and pH levels. Guides are available from the internet and some nutrient suppliers.
3Check the water quality with your TDS/PPM EC meter from a sample before putting it in your reservoir. Tap water measuring 300 ppm or greater indicates that you may need to run either a reverse osmosis system or distill your water. You want to be sure of the total PPM of the water you are putting to your plants before adding nutrients, is between 0-50ppm, anything over 100 is acceptable just be wary of some of the micro nutrients that might be in your test water. See the "Tips" section for ideas on tap water usage.
4Use a digital probe to measure the strength and pH of the nutrient solution every day and do this close to the same time every day. Make notes in a diary to keep track of events and changes.
5With nutrients in your reservoir, you can't get a proper reading with paper strips or test tube drop kits. For more accurate readings of your test equipment, test after the nutrient has been run through your system at least once (twice is good).
6Adjust the pH of your nutrient solution using propriety solutions such as pH Up or pH Down accordingly. Note: An adjustment in your solution's pH will affect its strength. The most affective is a pH of 5.5-6.2 never go higher than 6.5 or lower than 5.5 no matter what vegetables you are growing.
7Use a TDS/PPM or EC meter to check the strength of your nutrient solution. If it is too strong, add water. If it is too weak, add a little fertilizer. [See Warnings] Make sure you re-test the pH after making changes.
8Change/top-up the solution in your reservoir when the TDS/PPM meter shows it to be at or below that which the plants require.
9A proper top-up nutrient should not be used more than 3 to 4 times between full nutrient changes. Do not use full nutrient for top-ups.
10It is good practice to have a nutrient reservoir as large or larger than the empty volume of the tub(s)/container(s). For example if a 20L tub is used then at least 20L of nutrient should be used, preferably more, twice as much is a good minimum. The volume of the growing medium not with standing in the volume calculations. The largest size nutrient reservoir (within reason) that can be implemented is better.
11Know that nutrient life is dependent on is volume and the requirements of the plants as well as the plant's transpiration rate, all of which vary greatly. However, ideally you should nutrient the water everyday, when you are starting out.
12When the nutrient is considered past its useful life it can poured on dirt grown plants.
13Hydroponic gardens grow better outside, but local weather conditions may affect it and should be taken into account. When growing outside all forms of falling water should be prevented from falling on the garden and so diluting the nutrient solution.
14When growing inside provision of suitable lighting may be required.
Community Q&A
At what pH should my water solution be changed?wikiHow ContributorIt depends on the plant you are growing, as some plants prefer a higher pH while others prefer a lower one. Most plants wont survive in acidic environment, however.
What is an alternative to dumping the reservoir solution onto the soil? That isn't a viable strategy if I want to be certified organic in a few years. Any more "environmentally friendly" alternatives to share with us?wikiHow ContributorUse organic nutrients in your reservoir, or try running a compost tea through the system.
Unanswered Questions
Can I grow tubers or legumes hydroponically?
For a half gallon of water, how much of the three main nutrients do I use to start in a hydroponics system?
Can you suggest some good hydroponic nutrients?

- Make sure the fertilizer you use in a hydroponic system is complete. Match the solution's type and strength to your plants' needs.
- Tap water may contain chemicals which can adversely affect your plants. If you can smell chlorine or are unsure it is best to let your tap water stand for 24 hours prior to adding to your reservoir. Using chlorine remover for aquariums will add another unwanted chemical to your reservoir. By letting your water stand, you equalize the temperature of the water to that of the room, thereby making the water less likely to shock the plants' root system.
- It is a good idea to run plain water or 1/4 strength nutrient through the system during its regular timed flushes once or twice in between major or complete nutrient changes, to leach out any fertilizer buildup. Keep in mind this will weaken your prepared nutrient mix so a re-test and adjustment will be in order after a plain water or 1/4 strength flush.
- Not less than two flushes per day (morning and evening)should be provided, but as many as one flush per two hours may be needed. A good guide is to watch the leaves, and when they show signs of wilting, add a flush at that time.
- Oxygenation of the nutrient solution is paramount for nutrient uptake. Where possible, allowing return nutrient to splash back into the reservoir will suffice. If this is impracticable an aquarium air pump and stone rated for the size of your nutrient reservoir may be required.
- A lot of water treatment facilities have changed from Chlorine to Chloramine. They are doing this because it is cheaper due to the fact that Chloramine does not evaporate out of the water like Chlorine. If you ask the water company it "evaporates in 2 or 3 days" but with some online research you'll find many opinions that "it does not evaporate but breaks down into possibly harmful bi-products" The bottom line is you need a water filter that is capable of removing Chloramines. Standard RO is not enough, you still need to purchase a Chloramine removing pre-filter for your RO system.
- A larger reservoir allows a greater capacity for buffering against PPM/TDS EC changes, plant water use and pH. It's best to aim to create the largest reservoir you can fit comfortably in the allocated area that you have.
- The number of nutrient flushes through the system per day will depend on what type of plants, their size/maturity, whether or not they are fruiting, and the air temperature and humidity.
- Keep your nutrient solution temperature between 70⁄78 °F (−17.3 °C)-21/25C. These are ideal figures, but readings slightly over and under as low as 12C 53F will work, however plant growth may be slower for lower temperatures.
- Some city's water that contain chlorine also contains bromine which may harm your plants, a way to get rid of this bromine is to fill a barrel (not your reservoir) with cold water, the next day you will notice that the walls of the barrel will have little bubbles sticking allover, just tap your barrels sides a few times until all of these bubbles float up to the top. This is called perking and is a very affective way to expel bromine, its also a lot cheaper than using aquarium tablets (See Tips for tap water use)
- Chlorine is rapidly dissipated from agitated water when exposed to air.
- Do not use a top-up mix from a maker of a full/complete mix with another maker's top-up mix as the nutrient levels in each maker's mix will be different, you will radically alter the balance and your plants will suffer.
- Chlorine in tap water will not kill your plants, it can actually help them resist mold and mildew build up at the stock base.
- Sanitize your reservoir/pipes/tubes/tubs/pumps prior to use by pouring boiling water over all areas to be exposed to nutrient solution if your reservoir has become infected. With reasonable care hydroponic gardens do not become infected/contaminated.
- If adding new fertiliser to an existing nutrient solution, be aware that you will also be adding more micro nutrients/trace elements as well. These nutrients DO NOT get used anywhere near as much as macro nutrients. As a result a build up of these micro nutrients in your reservoir will cause problems with your plants. Many nutrient makers sell a "top-up" mix just for this purpose. If replacement top-up nutrients are not available then use the spent nutrients on your dirt garden/lawn or where-ever, and make a fresh new batch each time.
- Plants will suffer from high over nutrition/over fertilization very quickly; an undernourished plant may last longer than an over nourished plant but will suffer from lack of nutrients.
Things You'll Need
- pH testing meter
- PPM/TDS/EC meter
- Possibly an aquarium air pump and air stone to suit reservoir size
- Hydroponic plant nutrients
- Water
- pH Up and pH Down (Commercial products from a hydroponic supplier)

Dr. Russell, I'm the founder of the world's first and longest-running paid Wikipedia editing service, MyWikiBiz (yes, there's a Wikipedia article about it). You wouldn't believe it, but my contributions and expertise made available to the "CREWE" group were rejected when Phil Gomes blocked my access to the group, because Wikipedia's Jimmy Wales entered a bogus report to Gomes that I was physically threatening Wales. It's a convenient way for Wales to censor critics of Wikipedia -- call them "stalkers" and play the victim card to the hilt. If you're wondering why Wikipedia has such a tumultuous relationship with the PR industry, look no further than Wales (who, ironically, just married a PR executive).
Anyway, I thought you might find interesting two of my articles about gender bias on Wikipedia:
I am currently working on a review of 100 random Wikipedia articles about businesses, to evaluate both the editor who created each article, and the editor who contributed most to the article (sometimes one and the same person). I'm trying to decipher how many Wikipedia articles about businesses have been launched by, or predominantly edited by, persons with a conflict of interest regarding the subject. Care to take a guess at how the data is stacking up?
I think we all know that public relations has a rocky relationship with Wikipedia. Although I followed the CREWE (Corporate Representatives for Ethical Wikipedia Engagement on Facebook) discussions with interest, rather than getting involved in policy, I decided to stick with what I know best: p...
Since Wales said nobody's put forward a cogent argument for PR firms directly editing Wikipedia articles (which is ridiculously untrue), let me present a parable that I hope even Wales can understand:
Suppose you're a PR firm, and your client is a respected fast food restaurant chain. One of the chain's hundreds of franchises just terminated the employment of a 19-year-old community college student who was consistently late to work and had two customer complaints about his rudeness. This pink-slipped employee is also a Wikipedia administrator, but he doesn't have to disclose to anyone on Wikipedia who he is, where he used to work, or anything of the sort. And, he never disclosed to his former employer that he was a Wiki whiz.
Guess what? This administrator now takes it upon himself to modify the Wikipedia article about his former employer, such that he finds every single bit of mainstream and regional press that ever had a negative thing to say about the restaurant, and he adds it to Wikipedia. Where a "Criticisms and Controversies" section in the Wikipedia article didn't exist, it now constitutes 60% of the article.
Does this administrator have what Wikipedia defines as "a conflict of interest"? Nope! Not a bit -- because he does not stand to gain financially from his editing Wikipedia about the former employer. No foul here!
The PR firm begins to question the "balance" of the article, using only the "Talk" page, of course, but young admin man simply e-mails a few of his friends (also high-volume Wikipedia editors), and they counteract the complaint with multi-voiced assurances that these "reliably sourced criticisms" of the company are free knowledge and must be shared.
So, the PR firm begins to edit the article to increase some of the content about the accomplishments and community service commitments of the restaurant. Now the admin calls for a "CheckUser" search on the IP address of the "new" editor who is "blatantly" puffing up the article with "spam" and "POV pushing". The CheckUser determines that the IP traces to the headquarters of a PR firm that is known to serve the restaurant as a client. Next thing you know, Mister Administrator is anonymously sending a news tip to the New York Times, showing how the restaurant is trying to "bias" their Wikipedia page. A story comes out in the Times two days later.
The PR firm then complains to Jimmy Wales about what had transpired, but Jimmy sees this as a dispute between a "trusted, long-time Wikipedian" and a "corporate PR hack trying to infiltrate Wikipedia with promotional advocacy", so guess whose side Jimbo aligns with?
As a paid editor of both first and last resort, I have heard literally more than a dozen stories like this from exasperated clients who turn to me for advice and assistance with Wikipedia disaster situations -- almost always not of the ethical company's "fault", but rather a crisis of reputation generated by one or two persistent and pseudonymous "long-time Wikipedians".
A Wikipedia article about even a slightly controversial subject is like a football game, where one side is the "pro / favorable" subject team, and the other side is the "con / critical" subject team. The only thing is, the "con / critical" team might have a couple of players whose dad and uncle are referees in the game; and the "pro / favorable" team has a very ethical cornerback, middle linebacker, and safety trying to play by this very peculiar rule set up by the referees -- that because these players are wearing small sponsorship patches on their uniforms, they have to ask the referees for permission before tackling any player on the "con" team.
It's a ridiculous situation that has been allowed to develop and fester on Wikipedia, and the Wikimedia Foundation should be ashamed of its juvenile approach to "fairness" on such an important reference resource as Wikipedia.
Jimmy, I'd like to take the opportunity to publicly address an important topic that is long overdue for discussion. I write this, not as a representative of my employer, but as a career communications professional focused on matters related to online communities. Short version: A truly serious...
David King, I don't know why you are confused about me. (By the way, the name of my site is "MyWikiBiz", and I don't know how anyone "scrambles" an IP address.)
You may be confusing my Wikipedia paid editing service of August/September 2006 with my Wikipedia editing service of 2007 and onward. The 2006 approach was to write freely-licensed articles on my own site, then see if unaffiliated Wikipedians would copy them into Wikipedia. That's what happened with an article about Arch Coal. Jimmy Wales scuttled the article on Wikipedia that had been imported by a long-standing and respected Wikipedian. Wales insulted my work and insulted the discretion of the unpaid and unaffiliated editor who ported it into Wikipedia. Then another Wikipedia administrator plagiarized my content, re-entered it into Wikipedia and claimed it as his own work, deleting the original version, so that it would be impossible for any non-admin to make the comparison and spot the plagiarism. I asked Wales for two years to address this act of fraud, and he took the whole two years before righting the wrong.
Sorry, but in two years' time, I learned plenty of disturbing and disgusting things about how Wikipedia's "community" handles ethics... so I parted ways with the "publish elsewhere, let someone else copy into Wikipedia" technique. Editing directly works much better, and Wikipedia is improved in the process, because I treat content with an ethical resolve that few "Wikipedians" can match.
Note that Wales above says that "false claims above by some paid editors" have been made. I'm wondering if he can point out the exact falsehoods in particular? Or, is it easier for him to make his defamatory remark and then jet off to his next paid-travel, paid-lodging, paid-speaking gig about Wikipedia?

John Cass is right. I am the founder of the original "paid Wikipedia editing" enterprise. Jimmy Wales' comments in 2006 about paid editing were directed at me. My plan was to edit under terms of full disclosure, seeking the "volunteer" community's review and editorial revision of all of my paid content -- the bright, disinfecting sunlight that Wikipedia truly needs.
Wales didn't want that. He insisted that my publishing take pace "off site". So, I acquiesced, and other Wikipedians began importing my work into Wikipedia, but sometimes without proper attribution -- a problem I had already predicted to Wales would happen. He didn't give a shit about attribution; he cared only about appearances.
After about two months, Wales went bananas and summarily deleted a page I told him I had written (about Arch Coal, and not even for payment, as this was a test of Wales, actually). He called it "PR puff" and "unacceptable". Then the Wikipedia community looked at the article, and they felt it was rather okay, actually. Guess what happened? An administrator with a grudge against me plagiarized the Arch Coal article I had written, moving a few words around to make it look "new", then declared that he had written it "ab initio", even though typographic artifacts from my article still appeared in "his" article.
I complained for two years about this abomination to Wales, while also learning more and more about his despicable personal character, and when he finally apologized to me... he did so on the barely-read "Talk" page of the Arch Coal article.
I'll continue to follow the "underground" paid editing model, until Wikipedia's community can prove to me that they speak for an equal place at the table for PR, and not simply parroting whatever Jimmy Wales says is "the law".
Jimmy, I'd like to take the opportunity to publicly address an important topic that is long overdue for discussion. I write this, not as a representative of my employer, but as a career communications professional focused on matters related to online communities. Short version: A truly serious...
So, you consider libel an important and protected part of the "marketplace of ideas"? I wonder what sort of things I could dig up and distort about Paul Alan Levy. I would hope that Public Citizen would then protect my right to say these defamatory things anonymously, right Paul?
by Paul Alan Levy Over the past several years, we have described the developing law that offers protection for anonymous Internet posters by requiring notice to the poster and the presentation of evidence supporting claims of wrongdoing. We argue for this rule because it encourages participatio...
