Official: P**b is not offensive
'Diary of an On-Call Girl' is available in some bookstores and online.
This is the official blog of ex-Sgt Ellie Bloggs. I was a real live police constable then sergeant for twelve years, on the real live front line of England. I'm now a real live non-police person. All the facts I recount are true, and are not secrets. If they don't want me blogging about it, they shouldn't do it. PS If you don't pay tax, you don't (or didn't) pay my salary.
How do you write a piece about "what it's like to be a female police officer", when what it's like is almost exactly like being a male police officer? You can see my attempt here.
It's been a while since I wrote for The Telegraph, and the comments make interesting reading. In particular two comments, one gasping in horror at how a woman could want to take on such a ghastly dangerous career. (When she could be lunching at Harvey Nicholls or doing the school run, one assumes.) Another suggests that women who experience unusually high levels of aggression should take up boxing. Which only goes to show that sometimes it doesn't matter what you actually write.
Personally I think a lot of sense has been talked in the days since the Manchester murders. Sir Hugh Orde springs to mind. I don't agree with everything our worthy ACPO president says, but he spoke well on BBC News about why murder suspects sometimes have to be bailed, and how nigh on impossible it is to police when a society is either too frightened or too suspicious to give the authorities information about crime.
It has also reopened the debate about arming the police. I am not a fan of arming every police officer. But I do think we should have a lot more trained and armed firearms officers than we do. There should be a couple of double crews for every five or so unarmed crews, so that the availability of armed officers is not a factor when making decisions about risk and operational tactics. But if we are going to start arming everyone we will have to take a long look at our recruitment standards. There are plenty of officers on my team who make fine investigators, or neighbourhood officers, but who I wouldn't want behind me with a gun, or in front of anyone else. If you want to know why the majority of officers balloted by the Police Federation don't want to carry firearms, just read this story.
That said, if more offenders start laying grenade ambushes for neighbourhood officers, and the climate in this country does start to slide towards a Northern Irish style stand-off between police and society, I don't see what option we will have but to consider wide-scale arming.
In the meantime, I hope the death of these police officers provokes a more thoughtful and researched debate than the "Ooh big scary guns" versus "Kill the scum" that has presided until now.

The Cleveland Clinic offers these safety tips for your toddler's bed:
- Remove bumper pads and stuffed animals from the crib, as the toddler can use them to climb out.
- Take out any objects with strings that could accidentally become wrapped around a toddler's neck.
- Inspect the room for anything close to your toddler's bed that is within reach, including blinds, curtains, objects on the dresser or wall hangings.
- If your toddler is very active, consider moving him or her to a toddler bed from the crib.

'Thousands' in ATO sights over tax havens
The Australian Taxation Office is ramping up its efforts to catch Australians who park undisclosed funds in other countries, saying it expects to contact "thousands of people" over the coming months.
Hundreds have already come forward as part of a new amnesty.
The ATO's Project Do It, launched in March, had already resulted in 166 disclosures raising an extra $13 million in tax liabilities, ATO deputy commissioner Michael Cranston said on Monday.
There had also been 250 "expressions of interest" – whereby taxpayers identify themselves and pledge a disclosure – and 600 general inquiries, Mr Cranston said.
Project Do It, which finishes on December 19, is being billed as the last chance for tax dodgers using overseas accounts to come forward.
"Most people getting in touch are reporting accounts in Switzerland, Israel, Liechtenstein, the Netherlands, South Africa and Hong Kong, so we'll obviously be looking closely at the flow of funds to those countries," Mr Cranston said.
"This really is a last opportunity for people to get their affairs in order."
According to the Project Do It website, "sophisticated data matching and bulk data analysis", as well as greatly improved international co-operation, are being used to track down tax evaders in overseas havens.
Mr Cranston said in March that the ATO had "very effective" agreements with countries previously thought of as tax havens, such as Switzerland, the Cayman Islands, the British Virgin Islands, Bermuda, Guernsey and Jersey. Companies – including such global brands as Google and Apple – are also encouraged to come forward.
The ATO would be in touch with financial institutions, advisers and individual taxpayers over the coming months, said Mr Cranston.
"We'll be asking some people to explain offshore transactions and suggesting that they may want to disclose under Project Do It. At the same time, people involved in serious tax evasion may be subject to audit."
Under Project Do It, taxpayers disclosing their offshore assets will generally be assessed for the last four years, be liable for a maximum shortfall penalty of 10 per cent and full interest shortfall charges, and will not be investigated by the ATO or referred for criminal investigation on the basis of their disclosures.
According to the ATO, $480 million of adjusted tax, penalties and interest was recovered in 2012–13 thanks to exchanges of banking information with other countries.

I love translating fashion from the runway into interior decor- it really stretches my design muscles and allows me to think outside the box. When I saw this Valentino look I was SO drawn to the unexpected color combo! This look isn't exactly one I'd rock to go to a meeting, but I adore the unique mix of light blue, merlot and leopard with gold and black accents. I wanted to try to replicate this interesting combination in a living room….
I typically don't use the color cranberry/merlot in homes, it always feels so dated to me, but in this application of a velvet sofa against a grey blue wall anchored by a leopard wool carpet I think it works! It's a rich, luxe space that has a few statements and combines modern and traditional items. I never would have thought to try to put these colors together in a space, proving that looking to the runway can help your creativity when decorating!

SAN JOSE — Police are looking for two suspects who they say tied up a teenager and robbed the boy's home in the Almaden Valley.
Around 1 p.m. Wednesday, San Jose officers responded to the 7100 block of Anjou Creek Court after the 17-year-old boy called to say two people broke into his home and stole items from inside.
The teen then revealed he was tied up by the suspects but was able to somehow free himself and call for help, police said.
The suspects, whose faces were covered during the robbery, fled the home in an unknown direction, according to police, but the San Jose Police Department's robbery unit is looking through surveillance footage set up in the neighborhood to try and figure out who the suspects may be.
The 17-year-old was not hurt. Police did not say just what was taken from the home.

Marine Ecosystem Dynamics and Indicators for North Africa
Mediterranean coastal ecosystems are exposed to a variety of pressures, amongst which urban growth, intensification of maritime activities and unsustainable fishery. The impact of such pressures has caused the degradation of natural and semi-natural areas, and loss of terrestrial and marine biodiversity. Currently, coastal North African countries lack long-term monitoring programs. MEDINA will contribute to create the framework for issuing such programs in a mutual exchange with Europe: the EU partners will follow the regulatory framework imposed by EC, Marine Strategy Framework Directive in particular, transferring their capacity to North African Countries.
The IUCN Mediterranean Marine Programme is already involved in a number of pragmatic initiatives promoting an Integrated Coastal Zone Management to preserve and restore the biological integrity of the Mediterranean Sea, as well as to foster the sustainable development of the region.
MEDINA is designed to enhance Northern African countries capacity to implement environmental policies, conventions and protocols aimed at maintaining/improving the quality of their marine and coastal ecosystems. MEDINA's overall objectives are:
- To contribute to the assessment and implementation of permanent monitoring of coastal ecosystem in North African Countries (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya and Egypt), to enhance the monitoring capacity in the region and to identify the major risks in relation to climate change allowing the elaboration of adaptation strategies for their mitigation.
- To ensure the exploitation of the GEOSS (Global Earth Observation System of Systems) Common Infrastructure (GCI) capabilities at the maximum extent possible in providing the appropriate infrastructure for fusion of satellite Earth Observations and conventional environmental monitoring data.
Activities conducted within the framework of MEDINA project are shared among the following Work Packages (apart from management and dissemination WP):
- State of the art of marine coastal ecosystem monitoring in North African countries (led by IUCN)
- MEDINA e-infrastructure System of Systems and its pilot implementation
- Development and test of tools for data analysis, data integration and forecasting
- Participatory regional ecosystem Assessment
- Capacity Building activities in MEDINA are carried out at infrastructural, institutional and human level
MEDINA will achieve its goals by adopting the Drivers-Pressures-State-Impact and Response (DPSIR), adopted by European Environmental Agency, as the causal framework to describe interactions between society and the environment. The main drivers and pressure, such as fishery, tourism, urban and industrial development, waste and water flows, will be identified. Satellites Earth Observation data, collected within on-going or recently completed projects, will be integrated with field data. MEDINA's approach will be tested on five thematic Pilot Case Studies, to be identified, as representative of the priority issues of each country.
MEDINA's e-infrastructure, i.e. the set of relevant data, information and data processing services, will comply with the GEOSS GCI and be accessible via the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) Web Portal. End users will be able to select between interfacing directly with the MEDINA's e-infrastructure or with the comprehensive environment put at disposal by GEOSS and the GEO Web Portal.
The project, led by Ca' Foscari University (Venice, Italy), gathers a consortium of 13 partners, from Italy, Spain, France, Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria and Egypt.
MEDINA is co-financed by the European Commission (Instrument FP7 Collaborative project) for a total cost of 4,186,532 €.
36 months starting on the 1st of October 2011.

Occurrence of Listeria monocytogenes in salami
Maria de Fatima Borges 1*; Regina S. de Siqueira 2; Anna Maria Bittencourt2; Maria Cristina D. Vanetti'3; Lúcio Alberto M. Gomide 4
1Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Agroindústria Tropical/EMBRAPA, Fortaleza, CE, Brasil. 2Centro Nacional de Pesquisa de Tecnologia Agroindustrial de Alimentos/EMBRAPA, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil. 3Departamento de Microbiologia and 4Departamento de Tecnologia de Alimentos, Universidade Federal de Viçosa, Viçosa, MG, Brasil.
Submitted: July 16, 1998; Returned to author for corrections: November 20, 1998; Approved: December 20, 1999
Eighty-one samples of four different types of salami (Friolan, Hamburguese, Italian and Milanese), belonging to five brands, and purchased at Rio de Janeiro market, were evaluated for the occurrence of Listeria monocytogenes. The pathogen was detected in 13.3% of Italian type samples of salami, while L. innocua occurred in 6.5% of the Italian type and in 16.6% of the Milanese type. The remaining samples were negative for Listeria spp.
Key words: Listeria, meat products, salami
Listeriosis occurs mainly in immunocompromised individuals such as patients who depend on hemodialysis and prolonged therapies, AIDS patients, alcoholics, drug addicts and elderly, newborn and pregnant women (12, 18). The involvement of L. monocytogenes as an infecting agent, in these cases, has been related to the consumption of "in nature" and / or processed foods of vegetal and animal origins, such as milk (14, 17), cheese (5, 20), poultry (8, 17, 24), red meats (6, 13), meat products (5, 9, 23), vegetables and fruits (6, 11).
The incidence of Listeria in fresh meat may vary from 0 to 68%, while in processed meat products, including ready-to-eat food, the contamination ranges from 8 to 92% (13). However, a higher incidence of L. innocua in meat products, compared to L. monocytogenes was reported ( 17 ). In salami, the occurrence of L. monocytogenes varies from 5 to 23% (6, 7). Salami do not undergo heat treatment and are fermented under variable temperatures (mostly between 25-30°C according to the processing method adopted by the manufacturer), having a final pH between 4.8 and 5.2, and water activity around 0.85-0.90 (3). The fermentation process is also variable and can be conducted by the meat natural flora or by the addition of lactic acid starter cultures. The characteristics of these products make them susceptible to the survival of L. monocytogenes and, therefore, there is a potential risk to the consumer's health. Despite the importance of L. monocytogenes in meat products, only few studies on the occurrence of this microorganism in fermented sausage manufactured in Brazil are available (5, 19). So far neither clinical cases nor outbreaks of listeriosis associated with the consumption of any food have been described (1, 16, 21). Therefore, the aim of this study was to verify the occurrence of L. monocytogenes and other species of Listeria in different types of salami sold at Rio de Janeiro retail market.
Three units of the same production batch of four types of salami (Friolan, Hamburguese, Italian and Milanese) from different commercial brands were collected at the retail market in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Commercial brands included five of the Italian type, two of Milanese type and one of Hamburguese and Friolan types. Each experiment was repeated three times, using samples from different production batches, in an overall total of eighty-one samples. Each sample was constituted by three sub-samples of 50 g, finely ground in a blender for two minutes. 25g of each sample were analyzed according to a modification of the method suggested by Mc Clain and Lee (15) and Van Netten et al (25), using PALCAM agar (Merck) instead of Lithium chloride-phenylethanol-moxalactam medium (LPM). The procedure included the following steps: primary enrichment (UVM I Listeria enrichment broth Merck), secondary enrichment (UVM II Listeria enrichment broth Merck ), plating (PALCAM agar) and biochemical identification. In all steps, standard cultures of L. monocytogenes Scott A, L. monocytogenes ATCC 7644, L. monocytogenes ATCC 19111 and L. innocua L6A were used as controls.
One hundred and ten colonies with characteristics of the genus Listeria were recovered from Palcam agar. After initial selection by the motility test, eighty isolates with umbrella-shaped motility were submitted to morphological and biochemical characterization. In the carbohydrate fermentation tests, all cultures were able to use a-methyl-D-mannoside and rhamnose, with the production of acid, but they could not ferment xylose and mannitol. All eighty isolates presented positive and negative reactions to catalase and urea tests, respectively. Among these, sixty-seven were unable to reduce nitrate, as occurs in the Listeria genus. The sixty-seven isolates were further submitted to b-hemolysis, CAMP-Sa and CAMP-Re tests. According to the results, thirty isolates belonged to Listeria genus and twenty-three of them were identified as L. innocua and seven as L. monocytogenes (Table 1) .
The seven strains of L. monocytogenes were isolated from six samples of a single brand of Italian type salami, whereas the twenty-three strains of L. innocua were detected in six samples of two types of salami (Italian and Milanese) belonging to two different brands.
Therefore, 14.8% (12 out of 81) of the samples of salami were positive for Listeria spp. 50% of the positive sample (13.3% of Italian type samples) harbored L. monocytogenes, and 50% of them (6.5% of the Italian type and in 16.6% of the Milanese type) were positive for L. innocua.
The incidence of these microorganisms in similar meat products is quite diversified. Simón Serra et al. (22) observed an incidence of L. innocua of 14.3% of samples of raw-cured sausage while L. monocytogenes was not detected. Other authors, testing same kind of products, reported the occurrence of L. monocytogenes in 12.0% (2) to 17.5% of samples (4, 10).
L. monocytogenes was detected in a significant number of salami samples, indicating that it is important to monitor the presence of this pathogen in this type of meat product, specially because it is consumed without previous heat treatment.
The authors would like to express their gratitude to Prof. Anita Tibana, Ph.D. (Departamento de Microbiologia UFRJ) and Maria das Graças F. Nascimento, Ph.D. (EMBRAPA - CNPAB) for providing the reagents, to Instituto Nacional de Controle de Qualidade e Saúde - INCQS and to Ernesto Hofer, Ph.D. (Laboratório de Bacteriologia - FIOCRUZ) for donating the standard-cultures of L. innocua and to Biobrás Diagnósticos for supplying the culture media.
Ocorrência de Listeria monocytogenes em salame
A ocorrência de Listeria monocytogenes foi avaliada em oitenta e uma amostras de quatro diferentes tipos de salame fermentados ( Friolano, Hamburguês, Italiano e Milano ), pertencentes a cinco marcas comerciais, adquiridas no mercado varejista da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. L. monocytogenes foi detectada em 13,3% das amostras de salame do tipo Italiano, enquanto que L. innocua ocorreu em 6,7% das mostras do tipo Italiano e 16,6% das amostras do tipo Milano. As demais amostras foram negativas para Listeria spp.

DARRINGTON, Wash. (KOMO) - It's an illegal move that stunned park rangers and residents in Snohomish County. A nearly 100-year-old cedar tree on county parkland has been hit by a poacher.
"It was one the most devastating things for us to be out here doing our job and to realized that someone has taken advantage of our natural resources," said Emily Massingale, a ranger for Snohomish County Parks and Recreation.
On Monday, Massingale found a towering cedar tree hanging 30 feet above the campground road, inside in Squire Creek Park near Darrington. The poacher who tried to cut the tree down didn't make a large enough back cut and the tree hung on its own stump.
"So as you can see by the outer rings of the tree, it was just getting to the healthiest growth of its life and then it got cut down," she said.
She said the vibrant cedar tree, now chopped into pieces, was 96-years-old.
"This tree was going to keep growing for another 100 years or more," said Massingale.
Rangers said cedar is a hot item to sell. The tree includes about 600 board feet of the pricey wood.
"Knowing the high dollar amount for sale on a cedar that makes me think they were going to try and resale it," she said.
Rangers believe an unskilled lumberjack is responsible for illegally cutting the tree down – a crime they are seeking justice for, which could include jail time and thousands of dollars in fines.
"This was not someone's tree to sell," said Massingale. "It belongs to the park and it was a protected tree and it was sad to see it come down."
Rangers said they will re-purpose the cedar so it does not go to waste.
If you have any information on this crime, you're asked to contact the Snohomish County Park and Recreation Department.

This was another first for me. Must admit as I don't have boys, I did have to go and do some investigating wrt this cake.
Decided to go the simple route – I have realised that less is definately more ito cake decorating. Vanilla Cake with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting and then covered in Sugarpaste. A Sugarpaste Jake standing atop the cake, surrounded by many gold coins, and a few lobsters for good luck (and to add some colour).
Tristan loved this cake, as did his cousin and aunt and everyone who was at the party. And so did my 6 year old daughter. At this stage she's unsure if she wants a My Little Pony or a Jake Party for her 7th next year!

Hodgkin's Disease
Dear OncoLink "Ask the Experts,"
I was surfing the Net and I thank you for the great Web site about Hodgkin's disease. My friend's dad was just diagnosed with Hodgkin's and while we were doing our research, we came upon some questions.
How often does Hodgkin's occur in males in their late 30s or early 40s? Is this disease hereditary? What is Amgen? What is Adriamycin? What is Alprazolam? What is nitrogen mustard? What is Prednisone? What is Procarbazine? What is peripheral neuropathy?
I would appreciate it if you all could help me with these questions for me and my friend.
Kenneth Blank, MD and John Han-Chih Chang, MD, Editorial Assistants for Oncolink, respond:
Thank you for your question.
Hodgkin's disease displays a fairly unique and unusual age predilection: while most cancers tend to occur in one age group Hodgkin's disease demonstrates a bimodal distribution. Meaning that there is a young group affected ages 20-30 years old and then an older group ages 45 and over.
Hodgkin's disease is often treated with combination chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Many chemotherapeutic agents are effective against Hodgkin's disease including adriamycin, nitrogen mustard and procarbazine. Prednisone is a potent glucocorticoid (steroid) which has been approved by the FDA for treatment of lymphoma.
Alprozalam is a medication used to treat anxiety.
Amgen is the name of the company that makes Neupogen a medication which patients often receive after cancer treatments have depleted their white blood cell count.
Peripheral neuropathy is a medical term used to describe numbness and tingling or any other sensory changes in the extremities. Many chemotherapy agents can cause peripheral neuropathy including taxol, cisplatin and vinca alkaloids.
As with many other cancers the causative factors of Hodgkin's disease may be genetic, environmental, dietary or a combination of all three.

Cells of epithelial tissue turn over at a rapid rate, which makes maintaining the integrity of the sheets a more significant process than in many other areas of the body. When epithelial cells manage to evade the typical division and growth controls placed upon them, a tumor, or neoplasm, may develop. In some cases, this growth does not spread to other areas, in which case it is considered benign. Once a tumor metastasizes, however, it is described as malignant. Carcinoma is a malignant tumor that is epithelial in origin, arising on surface tissues of the skin, various organs, or blood vessels. Adenocarcinomas, such as the one that served as the source of HeLa cells, are carcinomas that begin in glandular epithelial tissue. These tumors generally arrange themselves in a glandular form, similar to the tissues that they invade.
The human cervical adenocarcinoma cells (HeLa) appearing in the digital image above were immunofluorescently labeled with anti-tubulin mouse monoclonal primary antibodies followed by goat anti-mouse Fab fragments conjugated to the cyanine dye, Cy2. The culture was counterstained for DNA with Hoechst 33258, and for the cytoskeletal F-actin network with Alexa Fluor 568 conjugated to phalloidin. Images were recorded in grayscale with a QImaging Retiga Fast-EXi camera system coupled to an Olympus BX-51 microscope equipped with bandpass emission fluorescence filter optical blocks provided by Omega Optical. During the processing stage, individual image channels were pseudocolored with RGB values corresponding to each of the fluorophore emission spectral profiles.

Topic: SSL certificate not reading properly
==== Required information ====
- iRedMail version: 0.8.3
- Store mail accounts in which backend (LDAP/MySQL/PGSQL): MySQL
- Linux/BSD distribution name and version: Ubuntu 12.04
Hi all, I setup iRedMail and it was working great, thanks to ZhangHuangbin for the great effort! Now I am attempting to remove the Outlook warning message about self sign certificate. I went ahead and got 1 Cert from godaddy.com. I changed the setting for apache2, Postfix and Dovecot to point the new SSL cert.
Problem, the apache2 and Postfix is working fine, the https://your_server/mail stop showing the warning and Postfix over tls also stop prompting me about the cert. But for Dovecot it still have the same warning message. And when I look at the Cert it provided (when i connect using outlook there is a view cert button), it seems to be a different cert altogether, it is signed by FortiGate CA (mine is from godaddy).
I have googled quite a fair bit and I tried various way. I add in the ssl_key_password, ssl_ca but it didnt work also.
I followed this article but the problem still persist.
# http://www.axelsegebrecht.com/how-to/in … -iredmail/
I look at this topic but the merging of cert didnt help too.
http://www.iredmail.org/forum/topic808- … daddy.html
To me it seems like dovecot is using my cert at all, but I am sure the below is point correctly at the correct folder.
I have give the folder the correct permission too.
ssl_key_file = /etc/ssl/private/[yourname].key
ssl_cert_file = /etc/ssl/certs/[yourname].crt
Thanks for reading till the end. I'll truly appreciate any help or suggestions given.

There's a story about Derek Jeter, included in Ian O'Connor's 2011 biography of the longtime Yankees shortstop, that reveals a lot about how careful Jeter is to maintain his image. Jeter had thrown a small party at his house, and as guests arrived, he asked them to remove their cell phones and cameras and place them on a table for the duration of the party, in order to protect his privacy. At first glance, such measures seem totally paranoid. But the more you think about it, the more you realize that Jeter knows exactly what he's doing.
It's hard to overhype a player that will be inducted into the Hall of Fame on the first ballot, but it sometimes happens with Jeter. There's long been a desire to label him with superlatives that even a legendary player like Jeter hasn't quite earned. So as Jeter prepares for his final big-league season, know that he's not the greatest Yankee of all-time, or the greatest shortstop ever, or the best player of his generation. But one superlative really does apply: He's the most media savvy athlete we've ever seen.
There's a long list of athletes who've used the press to cultivate a persona, which requires a certain type of savvy. But given the era in which he plays, the city in which he's spent his entire career and the team for which he's starred, no one compares to Jeter.
Athletes today, no matter where they play, are under constant scrutiny. And it's even worse in New York, where every slip-up by someone as famous as Jeter will surely find its way to the front page of the tabloids. But Jeter's demonstrated remarkable discipline to avoid not just real scandals, but the kind of non-scandals that work their way around the internet and chip away at a player's reputation. (Incidentally, Jeter's teammate, Alex Rodriguez, was the king of this latter category even before he'd been accused of taking performance-enhancing drugs. My favorite dopey A-Rod scandal has always been the time he kissed the image of himself in a mirror for a Details magazine photo shoot. Media savvy, that was not.)
Jeter has mastered the art of the boring interview, saying nothing and just enough all at once. Talking to Jeter will produce a usable pull quote, but it won't likely produce anything interesting. That's harder to than it sounds: Say too little, and you risk irritating the very press corps that might otherwise build you up. Say too much, with too little consideration for every word, and controversy is bound to follow. But Jeter's somewhere in between, speaking in perfectly dull Jeterian sound bites.
Consider what happened on Opening Day at Yankee Stadium earlier this week. Jeter didn't run hard out of the box on a ball that just missed going over the fence, and he narrowly avoided getting thrown out at second while trying for the double. That earned him teasing from his teammates in the dugout, but also a grilling from reporters after the game. First, Jeter joked that he did it on purpose, just to prove he still had an extra gear. Then, when the joke fell flat, he gave reporters the quote they needed: "I mean, look, maybe you get caught up in Opening Day and I thought it was a home run. I hit it good enough to be one, it just wasn't, didn't go out. You probably haven't seen it. Probably won't see it again. But what can you do?"
The attempt to disarm reporters with a jokey answer didn't do the trick, but Jeter played it just right anyway. As the New York Times put it (while also noting that a track record of hustling helped his case): "Such clear admission of wrongdoing is the easiest way to blunt criticism."
Of course, media savvy in the 21st century involves more than an understanding of how to be interviewed. And it requires more than banning friends of friends from taking drunken selfies with you at a party. It demands an athlete be interesting, just not too interesting. What's especially remarkable about Jeter is that he walks that line despite considerable public interest in his personal life. Unlike Mariano Rivera -- who's also heading to Cooperstown, but whose personal life has never been newsworthy -- Jeter has spent his entire career as a bachelor in New York, dating any number of famous women, and even with that level of scrutiny has managed to avoid overly negative press. (Even the unflattering items that do exist are often either real stretches or otherwise hard to believe.)
Perhaps the closest Jeter's come to a real scandal was back in 2003, when Yankees owner George Steinbrenner -- in old-school Boss mode -- criticized Jeter for staying out too late and losing focus. It had all the makings of the perfect tabloid story, the kind of thing that could stick to Jeter and become a part of public image for years. Jeter was annoyed with Steinbrenner and said so, telling the AP that he didn't think Steinbrenner's criticisms were fair. He was even keenly aware of how something like this can spread: ''This story is not just New York," said Jeter at the time. "This story has developed into a national story.''
Here's the money quote from Jeter from back then, about how Steinbrenner made reference to a particular birthday party: "That's been turned into that I'm like Dennis Rodman now." (Rodman, by the way, has long understood how to use the media to develop a persona, but unlike with Jeter, all the attention makes him more famous, but not necessarily more likable.)
But that story turned into Jeter's greatest PR coup: He and Steinbrenner not only made up, they had some fun with their spat, filming a Visa commercial that referenced it. Later that year, Steinbrenner would name Jeter captain of the Yankees -- and that would ultimately be the label that would stick.
Increasingly, athletes are treated as entertainers by the press (and not just the sports press), even if media attention is an inconvenience to many of them. Athletes talk to reporters every day because they're forced to, but unlike a movie star trying to charm an audience into seeing a film, such interactions don't often yield much beyond the most basic details. Jeter, like many other ballplayers, dutifully answers questions on a daily basis. But there's nary a controversial word in Jeter's responses -- and rarely anything especially revealing.
It's why Jeter's retirement letter, posted to Facebook last month, was so refreshing. In it, he made a reference to looking forward to starting a family when he retired -- an uncharacteristically candid thing for Jeter to say. Perhaps, as his final season plays out, we'll see a Jeter less concerned about saying the exact right thing, and more open to giving honest answers. With the end of his career no longer some abstract future concept, we may see a more reflective Jeter this season, even if it's unlikely he'll start airing two decades worth of grievances.
Jeter's farewell tour might wear on non-Yankees fans, who for the second consecutive summer will witness a drawn-out good-bye for a New York player. But there's little doubt Jeter himself will play it just right, saying all the right things about all the right people. His baseball skills may have diminished, but he's still as media savvy as ever.

Join us for an evening with the New Yorker's Hilton Als, as he reads from his latest volume, a cultural cross-examination called White Girls. Released by McSweeney's and hailed in a Publishers Weekly starred review as "compassionate," White Girls marks Hilton's first full release in fourteen years.
In accordance with the new volume, Donna Seaman of Booklist calls Hilton "a fine, piercing observer and interpreter, a writer of lashing exactitude and veracity." White Girls includes deft, smart observations on race, gender, and history, and explains a vast categorical concept that Hilton dubs "white girls"... a thread of our cultural past in present that he claims includes the likes of Truman Capote, Malcolm X, and Flannery O'Connor. Hilton has written for the New Yorker since 1989, and became a staff writer in 1994. He's the recipient of a Guggenheim fellowship and the George Jean Nathan Award for Dramatic Criticism, and also contributes to the New York Review of Books.

Effective development interventions are inseparable from the transparent and inclusive management of public finances.
Dakar, Senegal (PRWEB) March 13, 2014
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) will train a diverse range of partners during the second phase of a comprehensive programme designed to mobilize tax revenues and improve budget management in Africa.
The programme currently supports 17 countries in West and Central Africa and it will expand its portfolio to include a large number of civil society representatives, parliamentarians, universities and government departments involved in service delivery. Part of this effort will be conducted through online training.
The programme, managed by the Division for Development strategies and Public Finance, known in French as Le Pôle, aims to support the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and is expected to be essential to the implementation of Africa's post- 2015 the development agenda.
"Effective development interventions are inseparable from the transparent and inclusive management of public finances," said Abdoulaye Mar Dieye, the Director of UNDP's Regional Bureau for Africa.
"Mobilizing and managing resources appropriately is the responsibility of a large number of actors, including but not limited to ministries," he said. "We must support civil society, municipalities and supervisory bodies in the implementation and execution of solid budgets."
Held today, the meeting of the Steering Committee of the programme will mark the official launch of the second phase, covering the period 2014-2017, and discuss the integration of national development strategies in national and local budgets.
The meeting brings together the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the European Union, the German development agency GIZ, as well as the Governments of France, Spain and Luxembourg.
Over that period, added focus will be given to countries in conflict or post-conflict situations, such as the Central African Republic and Mali. The programme will also look at how to incorporate gender issues, the creation of jobs and climate change considerations into national and local budgets.
With UNDP's support, nine countries developed national development strategies in the first phase of the scheme. Specific sectors such as education and health became better equipped for monitoring and evaluating performance and delivery.
In Togo, for instance, policies on agriculture, water and the environment adopted "programme budgets" detailing costs, estimated results and performance targets for each activity.
UNDP's assistance also helped to democratize the management of public finances, by training national institutions to oversee budgets, while involving civil society in their preparation.
For example, members of parliament in Chad and Côte d'Ivoire received training on public finance reforms and are now able to discuss budgets on an equal footing with the government.
"The aim is not only to train the decision-makers of today, but to support countries over time, in a more structured and formal cooperation effort," said Laurence Jacquet, the Coordinator of the Pôle. "In that perspective, capacity building of stakeholders is a central component of our activities. We will increasingly work with training centres and universities to enhance the knowledge of our future leaders."
Through the programme, the University Cheikh Anta Diop of Dakar now offers a Masters degree in fiscal auditing.
In addition, UNDP will partner with training centers to roll out a comprehensive online curriculum on taxes, budgets and public finance.

NASHVILLE � A student that shows signs of having a concussion would be immediately removed from a sporting event and evaluated under legislation Tennessee lawmakers are proposing.
Schools and other organizations with youth athletic programs would be required to adopt concussion policies under the measure sponsored by Republican Sen. Jim Tracy of Shelbyville. It unanimously passed the Senate Education Committee on Wednesday and is headed to the Senate floor.
The legislation is similar to laws passed in 42 other states and the District of Columbia that include provisions requiring students to be removed from an event if they show concussion symptoms, such as headaches, dilated eyes or vomiting.
The Tennessee proposal in particular would require schools to adopt guidelines to educate coaches, school administrators, athletes and their parents about the symptoms and dangers of concussions and head injuries. Under the measure, injured students wouldn�t be able to resume the sport until a medical professional clears their return.
Coaches and school athletic directors would also be required to complete a type of concussion safety education course developed by the state Department of Health, and that includes a �concussion signs and symptoms checklist� from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
�This gives us guidelines,� said Tracy, a retired NCAA basketball referee who played high school football.
The bill is coming up amid increased attention to the long-term consequences of head injuries in sports.
Earlier this month, President Barack Obama said in an interview on CBS during a Super Bowl pre-game show said that, if he had a son, he would have to think about whether he would let him play football.
Obama, who has two daughters, said the threat of concussions for football players means that everything possible should be done to improve their safety � especially players from youth football leagues through college.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said later that the league is funding research to learn more about the risks and changing rules to make the game safer.
On Wednesday, NFL senior vice president Adolpho Birch, who oversees law and labor policy for the league, told The Associated Press before speaking to the Senate Education Committee that the league supports concussion legislation and hopes all states will eventually pass similar measures.
�We�ve been supporting this type of legislation for a number of years � with the goal of trying to have a law like this in every state,� he said.
A similar Tennessee proposal failed in the Legislature last year. Sponsors of the current legislation said there were concerns about who should be the authority on whether a student can resume play, but that issue seems to have been resolved.
�We�ve worked hard with all the groups from last year � and they�re all on board with this version of the bill,� said Republican Rep. Cameron Sexton of Crossville, who is sponsoring the companion bill.
This month, the Youth Sports Safety Alliance released recommendations aimed at protecting the nearly 8 million students participating in high school sports each year.
Among the recommendations was requiring students to have a pre-season physical exam, including testing for some of the 400,000 concussions students suffer annually.
Texas, the state with the largest number of student athletes, already is following most of the advocates� requirement. Each school district is required to have a concussion-prevention program led by at least one medical professional.

CHICAGO -- YMCAs across the country are planning free local activities as part of YMCA Healthy Kids Day on Saturday, April 18.
Interactive events designed to promote healthy living, bring families together and teach families tools to combat stress during the recession are planned at more than 1,800 YMCAs nationwide. The organization anticipates hosting 800,000 family members for its Healthy Kids Day.
"The YMCA understands that many families in our communities are really struggling to maintain balance in their lives," Lynne Vaughan, chief innovation officer, YMCA of the USA, said in a statement. "Through YMCA Healthy Kids Day, we give them an opportunity to have fun and be active as a family, as well as provide simple tools they can use all year long to make things a little better and a little less stressful."
To help participants manage stress, local events will promote regular physical activity, choosing nutritious foods and finding time for family togetherness. Organizers recommend that families consider engaging in the following actions at home:
• Involve the whole family in meal planning, preparation and clean-up.
• Eat more meals together as a family.
• Provide each child with one-on-one time every day.
• Designate one night a week for walks, bowling, bike rides, roller skating or the park.
• Serve fruits and vegetables at most meals; include a whole-grain or protein option with every snack.
Activities planned in local Ys include cooking classes, rock wall climbing, dance demonstrations and health screenings.

When a hospital makes a mistake that rises to the level of negligence, a patient has a legal right to receive compensation for any resulting injuries. While medical malpractice laws are designed to protect the rights of patients who have been given substandard medical care, the first step in asserting those rights must usually be taken by the patients themselves. This article describes those steps in-depth.
The biggest mistake a patient can make is waiting too long to file a claim. Time limits (called "statutes of limitations" in legalese) require patients to file legal claims promptly. The time limits vary by state, but they can be as short as one year from the date the treatment mistake was made.
As this article will discuss, a patient may have to jump through a few hoops before filing a legal complaint. This makes it more critical that the patient not wait before attempting to file a claim.
(To learn more detailed information about your state's laws on medical malpractice, including statute of limitations and damage caps, see our Statute of Limitations Chart and click on your state.)
A medical malpractice case isn't the kind of legal action you want to try handling on your own. These cases can get very complex from a legal, medical, and procedural standpoint. Proving your case is going to require not just a firm understanding of the law as it applies to your situation, but a familiarity with the kinds of hoops a medical malpractice plaintiff needs to jump through, including the retention of the right expert medical witness.
Medical malpractice lawyers generally offer free initial consultations. Most rely on contingency fees, meaning that the patient never pays the lawyer. If the lawyer wins the case, the law firm takes a portion (usually about 1/3) of the award. If the lawyer loses the case, the lawyer usually is not paid, though the client may be on the hook for a few small costs.
This is a crucial determination. Just because medical negligence occurred at a hospital, it doesn't necessarily follow that the facility itself can be held responsible. If your case is based on sub-standard care provided by an individual doctor, and that doctor is an independent contractor (and not an employee of the hospital), you need to pursue action against the doctor him/herself. In many cases, you can't sue a hospital for a doctor's treatment error, unless the doctor is an employee of the hospital (most are not), or when the doctor's incompetence should have been obvious to the hospital.
If you suspect your doctor is negligent for medical malpractice, read the article, A Doctor's Liability for Mistakes.
A hospital must keep every patient's medical records for at least a few years after treatment. Upon request, the hospital must give copies of the records to the patient (however, the hospital may charge a fee for copying expenses).
At some point, the hospital might make an offer to settle the case. So, it is important for the patient to determine the value of the case. The patient should consider all possible losses and harm stemming from the malpractice, including, past and future medical expenses, past and future wage losses, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life (the decreased value of a person's life as a result of the injury, measured by changes in lifestyle, such as the loss of the ability to enjoy sports, walk or play with children), and loss of consortium (losses to family members as a result of the injury, measured by loss of companionship or the loss of the ability to engage in certain activities).
For a more thorough introduction to available damages, see Types of Damages and Compensation in a Medical Malpractice Case.
Whose is legally responsible for the mistake? Was it a doctor's or a hospital's (we touched on this in item 3 above)? What about a nurse or an ambulance service? If the answer is unclear, the patient may sue more than one party. It is critical that all parties responsible are sued because it may not be possible to go back later to make a change.
Many states require patients to jump through a few hoops before filing medical malpractice lawsuits. These requirements vary by state. A patient might have to file an affidavit of merit in which a qualified medical expert attests that the plaintiff has a valid case. A patient also might have to submit a claim to a medical review board before filing in court, or agree to some form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR).
Sometimes, a patient must comply with these state rules before filing a medical malpractice complaint in court. Check the law in your state and the filing requirements in your jurisdiction, or speak with an experienced local medical malpractice attorney.
The complaint should indicate the patient's name, the names of the parties responsible, a description of how the injury happened, the harm that was caused, and the amount of money that the patient expects in compensation. The patient should file the complaint at the office of the clerk of the local (i.e. county) branch of the state court, usually called "[state name] Superior Court, County of [county name]." You should also be sure to comply with any special procedural rules (as discussed in item 7, above).
