Would you believe that this city, which is now known as a major aeronautical and industrial business center, home to the Los Angeles Air Force Base and more than 17,000 people, was once a "round clump of willows"?
Prior to El Segundo's incorporation in 1917, this area was part of "Rancho Sausal Redondo" ("Ranch of the Round Clump of Willows"), a rancho with a land mass of nearly 25,000 acres which extended from the areas as far west of what is now Playa del Rey, as far east as Inglewood, and as far south as Redondo Beach. The land consisted of wheat and barley fields on which cattle and sheep grazed.
In May 1911, five men representing the Standard Oil Company arrived here: Richard J. Hanna and J.E. Howell of the Eclipse refinery of Franklin, Pennsylvania and John Black, Henry Foster and William Rheem from the Standard Oil refinery in Point Richmond, a city 18 miles east of San Francisco). They were surveying the area as a potential site for their next oil refinery. What was required was an area adjacent to the seashore so their tankers could have appropriate access. The undeveloped nature of the site appealed to them because land costs had to be kept to a minimum. Also, the site had to be close to populated areas so it could attract enough employees.
The "clump of willows" was just what Mr. Hanna's team was looking for.
Lastly, this new site needed a name. Richard Hanna's wife, Virginia, deemed this expanse as "El Segundo", (Spanish for "the second one,") because the site was to be Standard Oil's second oil refinery in California (The Point Richmond refinery was already christened as "El Primero"). Sometime later, a group of proud but unknown citizens had nicknamed it "El Segundo a nada" (Spanish for 'second to none').
Standard Oil bought 840 acres of this land on June 11. The refinery opened for business, just five and a half months later, on November 27.
On January 18, 1917, less than six years after the opening of the refinery, the City of El Segundo was incorporated.

I am creating a facility to allow people to create groups to put people in that they like to keep in touch. I need a name for these groups and the obvious answer is 'group'. However, groups are something completly different on the website and for that reason I think I should avoid using it. I also don't want to use whatever facebook, google+ or twitter use to avoid the idea that we have just ripped them off.
So, what do I call these groups of people? Im currently using Collections, but it doesn't really work and isn't easy.

Another piece of Bluffton Parkway opened to traffic Monday, with construction of the flyover bridge that will connect it to U.S. 278 expected to begin by the end of the year along with other projects funded in part with sales tax revenue OK'd by voters in 2006.
The penny sales tax referendum helped pay the $11.5 million 3-mile stretch between Malphrus Road and Buckingham Plantation Drive that officials say will divert about one-third of the traffic from U.S. 278 while providing alternate evacuation routes in the event of an emergency.
"If you offer locals a venue other than (U.S.) 278, we all tend to get around a little easier," said Bluffton Councilman Ted Huffman, who helped cut the ribbon for the parkway's section 5A. "This project will help us all from the standpoint of evacuation, and sometimes the sheer volume of traffic hinders an errand."
The divided four-lane section with bike paths allows motorists to travel from S.C. 170 to Moss Creek without hitting U.S. 278, which is undergoing a widening project expected to close around November 2013. A combination of grants, sales taxes, and impact fees provided funding.
The 2006 sales tax referendum is projected to generate $152 million and will help complete other infrastructure projects throughout Beaufort County.
Many of those are ongoing or expected to start in the coming months.
Flyover bridge
to U.S. 278
Officials expect construction of a flyover bridge connecting the newest section of Bluffton Parkway to U.S. 278 to begin by the end of the year. Bids for the bridge - extending over the marsh at Buckingham Landing to U.S. 278 near the Karl S. Bowers Bridge to Hilton Head Island - require review from state and federal agencies because more than half of the funding for the about $31 million project comes from infrastructure grants.
To assuage aesthetic concerns raised by some islanders, officials are asking contractors to incorporate beautification into proposals.
S.C. 170 widening
The Beaufort County Council awarded design and construction contracts Monday to widen 4.5 miles of S.C. 170 between S.C. 46 and U.S. 278 from two to four lanes. The divided roadway will include 10-foot pathways for pedestrian and bicycle use.
Thomas & Hutton of Savannah will receive $217,000 from the sales tax fund for design expertise while Cleland Site Prep of Ridgeland will receive nearly $15 million in tax and grant money for construction of the project.
The county expects construction to begin in late August or early September, with a timeline of about 18 months, said Rob McFee, director of infrastructure and engineering for Beaufort County, at the council meeting.
Bluffton Parkway phases six and seven
Officials have identified a contractor for two additional phases of Bluffton Parkway extending into Jasper County, where they would connect with Exit 3 of Interstate 95, but negotiations are still ongoing.
Members of the joint project are still exploring funding options, said Beaufort County Council Chairman Weston Newton at the section 5A ribbon-cutting ceremony.
U.S. 278 widening
The $23 million U.S. 278 widening project is expected to finish on schedule around November of 2013. The roadway between Simmonsville Road and S.C. 170 will expand from four lanes to six.

It is very common for mobile apps to depend on external login (like Facebook). In this article, we are going to discuss the oAuth flow for the following scenario:
- The user's identity is verified by an external server, i.e., external authentication.
- The user's access to a protected resource, i.e., an API endpoint, is determined by the internal server, i.e., internal authorization. In other words, the resource server and the authorization server in the oAuth 2.0 specification is the same server.
First, I will discuss the process and then I will give an example.
The oAuth Flow for the above scenario:
- The client, i.e., the mobile app, calls the external identity server and verifies the users identity. On a successful verification, it receives an token from the identity server. We will call it authorization_grant.
- The client sends the authorization_grant to the internal authorization server. The authorization server has a trust relationship with the identity server. So, it sends the authorization_grant to the identity server. If the identity server cannot verify the authorization_grant, it sends back 401 unauthorized to the authorization server, which it propagates to the client. If, however, the identity server successfully verifies the authorization_grant, then it sends back the user info to the authorization server. The authorization server checks the permissions of the user (by querying the database database or some other methods) and generates a token. We will call it the access_token. A typical access_token contains the user's identity, permissions, and an expiry time. The authorization server sends back this access_token to the client.
- The client embed this access_token with each request for the protected resource, i.e., calling API endpoint. Depending on if the user is allowed to access the resource, he either gets it or receives 401 unauthorized.

Tyler Olson allowed only five points to his opponent from Amherst (photo courtesy Gil Talbot).
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. -- The Harvard men's squash team played three Massachusetts opponents in two locations Saturday and came away with three sweeps. The Crimson got past Amherst to start the day before traveling to MIT to defeat the host Engineers and Boston College by identical 9-0 tallies.
In the home opener, the Crimson breezed past Amherst. The top eight players in the lineup swept their way to victories. The top four of Brandon McLaughlin, Gary Power, Nicholas Hopcroft and Tyler Olson had particularly impressive results. The quartet each held their respective opponents to less than ten points over the course of three games.
After making the short trip within Cambridge, Harvard made quick work of MIT and Boston College. With the two sweeps, the Crimson has now swept six of seven matches this season, including five straight.
The Crimson continues its busy weekend with matches against Northeastern (at MIT) at 11:30 a.m., before returning to the Murr Center to face Boston University at 5 p.m.

Hillary Clinton takes a five-point lead among likely voters over Donald Trump into Monday night's presidential debate, according to the latest NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll, released hours before the debate kicked off.
Clinton's 45-40 lead over Trump was unchanged from the week before, the poll found. But Clinton's head-to-head matchup with Trump improved by two points over the previous week, and she now leads him 51-44, NBC News reported.

Less than three weeks ago, Jon Busch's career was in a major state of flux. The Fire had controversially released the 2008 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year and, with most MLS clubs set at the position, Busch was left wondering where he would play next.
He told multiple outlets, including MLSsoccer.com, that he was looking anywhere and anywhere for work. USL, Europe, MLS -- all were legitimate options for Busch.
Ultimately though, he remained stateside and in the big leagues, signing a deal to become the backup goalkeeper in San Jose only a week after being released by the Fire.
"I'm just really excited to help San Jose in any way I can," Busch told MLSsoccer.com over the phone. "I'm going to do what I've always done in the 14 years [I've been playing professional soccer], just put my head down and work and do what I can do and leave the rest up to the coaching staff."
Now, three weeks into the season, Busch is coming back to Chicago. The Earthquakes and the Fire will play this Saturday in the Toyota Park home opener and what will undoubtedly be an emotional homecoming for Busch.
"At the end of the day it's a game that both teams will obviously want to win" Busch said. "It might be a little hard emotionally ... seeing the fans again for the first time. But at the end of the day what's done is done and I am now a San Jose Earthquake, and our job is to come in there and find a way to get a result."
For their part, Busch's former teammates are happy the fiery goalkeeper is still in MLS. They're hoping for the best for their former teammate -- just not this weekend.
"I'm happy for him because he landed a team," Fire defender C.J. Brown said. "But what's done is done. He's with San Jose now so we've got to move on and concentrate with our group. I wish him the best, just not against us."

Founded in Arco (Trento) in October 2012, Associazione Culturale EdizioniCorali.it identifies its goals in the promotion of Italian choral music by living and not, in Italy and abroad. It started his own publishing experience with Florilegio di primavera, the first step of a journey and a cultural proposal in the Italian choral context, that will see the production of monographic publications and thematic collections. It organizes, also, the biennial national competition of choral composition, with the intent to give a concrete expression to the emerging Italian choral composition talents. Of these, EdizioniCorali.it becomes promoter by release, concert and record. From its foundation, Enrico Miaroma is the Artistic Director.www.edizionicorali.it

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, "Life's most persistent and urgent question is: 'What are you doing for others?'" In answer to that query, volunteers from Cameron University and the Lawton-Fort Sill community will participate in the national Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service on Monday, January 20, 2014. CU officials are hoping to recruit over 400 volunteers for the event. To volunteer, register online at www.cameron.edu/mlkcelebration/dayofservice or call the Office of Student Activities at (580) 581-2217. The volunteers will work on community projects from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Additionally, the volunteer effort will include a supply drive, with donation boxes and supply wish lists set up at locations throughout Lawton on Saturday, January 18.
"Cameron University is honored to lead this annual volunteer day of service," says Jennifer Holland, Vice President for Student Services. "The impact on the Lawton-Fort Sill community is enormous, and the personal satisfaction experienced by the volunteers is immeasurable. Our call to action today is simple: we need volunteers to register in advance and as early as possible. This allows us to allocate the appropriate number of workers to each project during the week prior to January 20. We appreciate the many members of the community who always help make the MLK Day of Service a success."
Online volunteer registration will close on January 10, 2014 so that project assignments can be determined. Volunteers will receive project details and site locations the week of January 13.
Cameron's volunteer corps on the MLK Day of Service will joined tens of thousands of volunteers across the nation who will answer Dr. King's challenge to do something for others. Led by the Corporation for National and Community Service and the King Center, the MLK Day of Service Service is the only federal holiday observed as a national day of service – a "day on, not a day off." Families, students, congregations, employees, and individuals of all ages and backgrounds will come together to celebrate MLK Day by making a difference in their communities. Initiated by Congress in 1994, the annual observance serves as a way to transform Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s life and teachings into community service that helps solve social problems and strengthens communities.
For more information on the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service, go to www.cameron.edu/mlkcelebration/dayofservice or www.mlkday.gov.

Apple 'MacBook Mini' to lose HDD, gain Flash?
Premium product
Rumours that Apple is working on a sub-notebook computer were given weight this week when a Wall Street analyst claimed the ultra-compact MacBook will use Flash storage.
American Technology Research analyst Shaw Wu wrote and told investors: "This is a new sub-notebook form factor that will use NAND Flash as primary storage. Our sources indicate that Apple would like to introduce the product in H2 2007."
It won't be the first computer to do so. Sony, for example, is already shipping its Vaio UX1, a compact tablet form-factor machine with 32GB of Flash in place of a hard drive. And SanDisk announced a 1.8in, 32GB internal Flash drive for notebooks and handhelds in January.
The problem is the price - the Sony machine will retail in the UK for around £2,000, even though it doesn't sport a top-of-the-range specification. It's hard to see the MacBook Mini - for want of a better name - coming in well below that figure.
What the Apple Store might show later this year?
Apple does have an advantage: thanks to the iPod line it's a very big Flash customer, and the volume-purchase agreements it's reached - like the November 2005 $1.25bn deal struck with Hynix, Samsung, Intel, Micron and Toshiba - will not only allow it to feed the iPhone with Flash but also the rumoured MacBook Mini.
The iPhone is key here. It's being pitched as a state-of-the-art product for which a small but sufficient number of consumers will spend top dollar for. A pricey MacBook Mini would clearly fit in with Apple's strategy of offering slick products at a premium.
Apple's MacBook Pro line members are all priced a little way above comparably specced Windows machines, users paying extra for - arguably - a superior operating system and a better-looking machine. That said, build-quality issues that have emerged since the MacBook Pro first shipped a year ago may have tarnished the metal machines' desirability over the hordes of plastic cookie-cutter Windows laptops. Incidentally, it's been suggested too that Apple's existing MacBook and MacBook Pro lines will also gain Flash, albeit in the form of small caches to shorten start-up and application load times, and to help conserve battery life.
And it's worth bearing in mind claims that Apple's considering migrating its entire iPod line to Flash. Could this be the truth behind the sub-notebook claim - or a further signs Apple sees a Flash future?

The context
Mercy Corps has been working in Ethiopia since 2004. Ethiopia is Africa's second-most populous nation, and although the economy have been steadily growing, the vast majority of Ethiopia remains impoverished. More than 83 percent of the population lives in rural areas vulnerable to droughts caused by climate change as well as economic instability and conflict spillover from neighboring Somalia and South Sudan.
Back-to-back seasons of minimal rainfall led to a severe drought in 2016, killing valuable livestock and necessitating further humanitarian assistance in 2017. According to the U.N., the drought is worse than the 2010-11 drought because of consecutive droughts and a low rainfall forecast for the next few months.

I have Kelorids on my ears and looking for a sergeon to remove them. I was told I got tme because I hade a face lift and the sergeon did not pull the stitches tight enought.
I doubt the keloid was caused by a facelift that was not pulled tight enough. There are many ways to treat keloids from surgery by itself or surgery plus radiation. If surgery is done without radiation then you need to have steroids or other injectables to keep it from coming back.


text: This video has been popping up all over the internet the last few days, so if you haven't seen it yet consider this your chance to amend that mistake. Nobody should go through life without having seen a Russian bear play the trumpet, use a hula hoop, and sit in a chair like a human being. There are a lot of cool bears out there, but I think we may have finally found the best bear.

High-energy Hilarity
Bobby Lee finds humor in his escape from the middle class
By Carl Kozlowski 08/07/2014
Growing up in San Diego as the son of Korean immigrants, Bobby Lee was expected to take over the family business. His parents owned a five-store chain of clothing stores known as Fashion Gal, and while he appreciated the comfortable life their hard work afforded, he felt certain that working for them would eventually kill him.
"The stores catered to fat ethnic women, like an ethnic Lane Bryant," he recalls, a mix of anguish and laughter still mingled in his voice 20 years later. "Just being trapped inside all day and having to deal with that. Standup comedy saved my life."
Indeed, Lee found salvation in developing his own fearlessly energetic and brash form of comedy at the Comedy Store in La Jolla. And after two decades filled with successes including "Tonight Show" appearances and a long-running stint on FOX's late and lamented "MAD TV," the 41-year-old jokester will be bringing his high-energy hilarity to Pasadena's Ice House Comedy Club this weekend.
His appearance comes at a prime moment in the club's history. Famous for being the nation's oldest continuously running comedy club and heralded as the location where more comedy CDs have been recorded than any other location on earth, the Ice House has also been named one of the five best comedy clubs in the nation (the only California club on the list) by the new book "The Humor Code: A Global Search for What Makes Things Funny."
With four shows coming up on Friday and Saturday, Lee will be enjoying the intimate energy the club offers between its compact crowds and performers. While he's also a frequent performer at the Comedy Store on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, Lee holds a special place in his heart for Pasadena's comedy jewel.
"The Ice House is a historic comedy club, much like the Comedy Store," says Lee. "The owner is an amazing man and I'm privileged to play there." n
Bobby Lee will perform at 8:30 and 10:30 Friday and 8 and 10 p.m. Saturday at the Ice House, 24 N. Mentor Ave., Pasadena. Tickets are $24 for general admission and $31 for VIP seating. Call (626) 577-1894 or visit icehousecomedy.com.

A video camera setup provided important details on repeated collisions with interstate overcrossings.
Repeated instances of large, fast-moving vehicles colliding with bridges that cross multiple interstates is certainly cause for alarm among transportation officials and motorists – especially those involved in the collisions. Yet that's precisely what was happening in Indianapolis, Ind., in an area known as the South Split where Interstate 65 and 70 meet. Officials at the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) knew the collisions were occurring but not why, how often and how severely.
Circumstantial data from years past suggested an increasing number of oversize vehicles – often semi-trucks hauling large machinery or equipment on flatbeds – were striking four bridges in the South Split. In most cases these were not catastrophic collisions. Rather, the flatbed payload or the trailer being towed would just nick – relatively speaking – the overpass. But it seemed to be happening more often than in previous years.
The four bridges in the South Split have vertical clearances ranging from 13'11" to 14'6". INDOT officials documented more than 400 collisions since 1999 and recent data showed the number was on the rise. INDOT officials decided to lower the South Split roadbed to reduce the number of strikes. But they also wanted to find out for sure what was going on. So last fall INDOT, with the help of Purdue University, installed a camera on the Virginia Avenue Bridge.
"The impetus for the project was the increasing frequency and severity of oversize vehicles hitting these low bridges," explained Will Wingfield, Communications Director of INDOT. "We were exploring different low cost measures to reduce that."
The camera was a simple solution that used off-the-shelf technology. INDOT did not have to custom build anything. The parts were all readily available and they were all affordable. And once installed, the camera produced dramatic footage.
"One of the things that made this successful was that we were using consumer technology," Wingfield said. "This was a camera recording 24/7 to which was attached a solar panel to provide power and a cell connection to provide network access. The camera was not continuously recording. Rather, an accelerometer started recording the moment something hit the bridge."
Once the accelerometer activated, the camera would send a clip of video and a text message to INDOT personnel, including bridge engineers, noting that there had been significant movement of the structure.
The camera monitored the Virginia Avenue Bridge for one year. In that time, it recorded dozens of strikes. On the South Split roadbed project webpage, INDOT began posting clips of the impacts. Tractors, construction equipment, car transport trucks, trucks towing other trucks – all manner of oversize loads were striking the bridge and getting caught on camera.
Wingfield said there are a number of reasons the loads were exceeding the posted bridge height. Typically, he said, people think they've properly secured their loads when they actually have not.
"We advise people to measure and secure loads and obtain the proper permits," Wingfield said. "One reason for measuring and securing is many of these vehicles have hydraulic arms and when they hit bumps in the road the arm may actually raise slightly over time."
In early September, the camera's time on the bridge came to an end. The simple solution had served its purpose. INDOT had the data it needed as it began the process of lowering the roadbed and the agency had effectively raised public awareness about a significant safety issue.
"The camera served as an important tool for us," Wingfield said. "It allowed us to identify the types of vehicles that would strike the bridge on a regular basis."
The videos proved popular among INDOT's social media fans and with area media outlets. So much so, in fact, that INDOT has brought more cameras with it to the actual roadbed construction – five of them, to be precise.
"We have five time-lapse cameras mounted to monitor construction progress," Wingfield said. We're sharing information through social media and the traditional news media."
Some simple, cheap technology available just about everywhere helped INDOT address a public safety problem and create a solution. And now, for people who are so inclined, that solution is under construction and can be viewed in time lapse from the comfort of your computer screen.

I recently heard about jet quenching concerning data taken by the experiments at the LHC. Apparently it is related to the existence to the quark-gluon plasma. As far as I understood this interpretation is an analogy to hydrodynamics (the jet is "blocked" by the plasma).
I would like to understand that in more details: why is this analogy a "good" one, how far can it go and how do we detect that experimentaly.

This is an archived article that was published on sltrib.com in 2013, and information in the article may be outdated. It is provided only for personal research purposes and may not be reprinted.
Six months after being hired, Dennis Lindsey clearly knows his Utah Jazz history. At the very least, one practical detail hasn't escaped the team's first-year general manager.
"It took John Stockton three years, as I understand it, to be a starter," he said.
So Derrick Favors, the Jazz's third-year forward, isn't necessarily destined for a lifetime of being underutilized? Nor Gordon Hayward, the Jazz's third-leading scorer and a backup?
That's where Lindsey finds truth in the past, saying the team is "adhering to the history of the organization" by bringing its young stars along slowly. Stockton did not become a full-time starter until 1987-88, his fourth year in the NBA.
Among a segment of the Jazz fan base is a growing discontentment that the Jazz's four former lottery picks, also including Enes Kanter and Alec Burks, are being held back by not playing bigger roles. Lindsey said the Jazz are very cognizant of how that young core is handled.
"We understand that the public, as are we, are excited about the young guys," Lindsey said. "But we've got to bring them along at the appropriate pace."
The former San Antonio and Houston executive, who stepped into the role with the Jazz when longtime GM Kevin O'Connor became executive vice president last summer, spoke about the team's future Monday as part of a wide-ranging interview with Salt Lake City media at the team's practice facility.
In regard to Favors, the talented and rangy power forward who ranks among the top 20 shot blockers in the NBA, Lindsey said the Jazz have weighed whether it does more for him to play big minutes now, or gives "him a real sense of appreciation that he earned the additional bump in minutes eventually, whenever that is."
With the NBA trade deadline nine days away (Feb. 21), the Jazz and their eight expiring contracts have been popular characters in rumors and speculation, leading Lindsey to describe the front office's activity as "normal, course of business."
In the last week, the Jazz have been linked to trades that would send Al Jefferson to San Antonio, Alec Burks to Minnesota for point guard Luke Ridnour and, on Monday, to a deal that would send Al Jefferson and Gordon Hayward to Phoenix.
"When everybody says that you have to do something," O'Connor said in an NBA TV interview Monday afternoon, "that's when you probably don't."
So are the Jazz taking calls? Almost certainly. Are they making them? Lindsey, true to the Jazz way, played it close to the vest.
"We have a job to do," Lindsey said. "We can't hide from that. Kevin and I have to listen and survey and, again, our overriding points is we want to be very disciplined to the threshold that's been built, the flexibility that's been built."
The Jazz will see as much as $49 million come off the books in the summer, getting the team well below the salary cap and allowing the financial freedom to compete for any free agents.
One issue the Jazz need to sort out long term is their plans at point guard. Mo Williams, Earl Watson and Jamaal Tinsley all become free agents, and conventional wisdom says the Jazz will try to add a young point guard of the future.
Williams, 30, took umbrage last week when ESPN columnist Bill Simmons said the Jazz need to find a point guard. He posted to his Twitter account, "What the hell Bill Simmons talking about the jazz need a point guard. What the hell position have I been playing all yr [sic]?"
Asked if Williams, who has not played since Dec. 22 due to a tear in his right thumb, could be the Jazz's point guard of the future, Lindsey said, "Yes, he could. We'll see how the rest of this season goes. Mo's a free agent and has earned the right to be a free agent. ... He's acquitted himself well here."
Surrounded by question marks, Lindsey was unequivocal about one key Jazz piece: Tyrone Corbin is entrenched as the head coach.
"I'm confident we have a really good leader and good man in Ty Corbin, who has been here before and knows what we stand for," Lindsey said.

Coach who recruited Te'o says this is 'blip'
- Nevada coach Brian Polian recruited Manti Te%27o to play at Notre Dame
- Polian and Te%27o have exchanged texts this week
- %22In two months%2C%22 Polian says%2C %22it will go away%22
The names of Brian Polian and Manti Te'o have been tied together ever since the coach convinced the star player to attend Notre Dame prior to the 2009 season.
Polian made more than a dozen trips from South Bend, Ind., to Teo's home in Honolulu during the recruiting process. He became close friends with not only Te'o but also his parents. They developed a family-strong bond.
So, when Polian received a text Wednesday that Te'o had been involved in a hoax regarding a fake girlfriend who supposedly died during the middle of the season he was shocked and saddened.
BRENNAN:Notre Dame forgets the woman who really died
For Polian, who accepted the head-coaching position at Nevada last week, the story did not mesh with the Manti Te'o he has known for almost six years.
"This is not the young man that I know," Polian said. "This is not the family that I know."
On Wednesday, a Deadspin.com story revealed that Te'o's girlfriend, Lennay Kekua, who he said died of leukemia during the season, never existed. The Deadpsin story quotes an unnamed source saying there's an 80 percent chance Te'o was complicit in the hoax.
'CATFISH':Te'o's story is a common one
Te'o released a statement Wednesday saying he was duped and thought he was maintaining an authentic online relationship. Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick backed up Te'o's story.
"The thing that's being lost in here is that Notre Dame is getting up there and publicly saying that their guy was taken advantage of and was a victim," Polian said. "Jack Swarbrick is a lawyer and a very good one. He's not going to get up there and attach his credibly and the credibility of the university to the young man if he's not confident in him. Too many people have glossed over that today."
Polian said he exchanged texts with Te'o on Thursday, but declined to discuss details. The coach, who spent one year as an assistant at Notre Dame while Te'o was on the team, said he never spoke with Te'o about Kekua.
Polian said Notre Dame's polarizing nature, coupled with the 24-hour news cycle bred by the Internet, has blown up the story. He said Te'o's loving, trusting and caring public persona is an accurate portrayal.
"For a big hulking young man like that," Polian said, "the best way to describe him is a sweet kid. He thinks of others before he thinks of himself. He's very humble. He's very respectful with his coaches and elders. He's just a good-hearted person. I find it hard to believe that he would put this whole thing together. This is just not the kid I know."
Asked if he could envision a scenario in which Te'o was complicit in the hoax, Polian said: "Boy, I hope not. I pray that he wasn't."
Polian also said it is conceivable Te'o met somebody online, formed a cyber and telephonic relationship and was tricked into thinking this person had passed away. The coach said he couldn't envision a scenario in which Te'o was trying to get publicity given the fact he was a star player at a huge university.
"Kids his age, NFL prospects, every year there are dozens of them that are taken advantage of, either financially, by members of the opposite sex, by agents," Polian said. "It's just unfortunate that if this kid was taken advantage of that it's being played out in the national media as opposed to the dozens every year where it happens behind the scenes."
Polian, whose father was the general manager of three successful NFL teams, said he doesn't think Te'o's draft stock will be affected by the scandal.
"When it comes to the pro clubs, he's going to have to answer some questions," Polian said. "But I'm not sure he owes the Twitter-sphere and everybody on the Internet and the media an explanation. He doesn't owe them anything, but if he chooses to clear the air that's up to him. But he doesn't owe it to the American public to get on a major network and do a tell-all interview."
Polian seemed confident Te'o's name would be cleared in time. He also said this hoax won't define Te'o, who finished second in the Heisman Trophy voting this season.
"This is a blip," Polian said. "In two weeks it will be a punchline and in two months it will go away. It's the nature of the 24-hour news cycle and Twitter and the Internet. This caught fire and a couple days from now something else will catch fire.
"I have no doubt this will certainly not define him as a person and it should not. ... This is a kid who probably made a mistake somewhere along the line here but he's a kid who made a mistake. This will not define who he is the rest of his life."
Chris Murray writes for the Reno Gazette-Journal, a Gannett property.

Honestly, if I chose to get married while I was in law school, I probably would want to just go somewhere nice for a long-weekend/week during the 1l summer get married there and have a reception for family and friends but then again I also realize women have a slightly different perspective on these issues.
I'm an engaged 0L. I don't have a wedding date set yet but I wanted to get some insight from current law students on when the best time to have the wedding would be. I am considering my 1L summer because I'm assuming whatever job I have will not be as intense as my 2L summer when I am considered more valuable. Are winter breaks out of the question? I'm guessing 1L winter is definitely out. Should I wait until I graduate? I'm worried I will be too busy studying for the bar/ starting a job in the 1st year out. Does anyone have any experience planning a wedding during law school? My fiancee is flexible too. Thanks guys!

Students, Parents And Cops Involved In School Fight
Poughkeepsie High School students and faculty were told to shelter in place during a full school lock-down Tuesday afternoon after multiple fights broke out.
The first fight pitted student against student. The second fight started when parents of the students who fought in the first fight started fighting each other. And the third fight erupted when 10 Poughkeepsie Police officers arrived on scene and attempted to squelch the entire brawl.
Poughkeepsie Police Sgt. George Camacho said he did not know what started the fights or if any charges were filed.

As you probably know by now, Apple is planning to ditch Google Maps when it releases the newest version of the iPhone later this year (a pandemonious event that could come as soon as next month, according to the latest rumors). The company announced back in June plans to produce its own mapping software. This is big news for cartography geeks, but it comes with a catch. Without Google Maps, the new Apple operating system won't include the transit navigation capability that Google has worked with cities to pioneer over the last seven years.
Apple's in-house software, in other words, will be able to tell you how to get from LaGuardia to Yankee Stadium by car, but not by public transit. For now, at least, Apple appears to be banking on third-party developers to fill that gap by creating transit tools you can download in the app store. But the strategy relies on a pretty big assumption. Third-party developers need open data to build these tools.
"Of course, that would only work in cities that are actually sharing their data," says Sean Barbeau, a research associate at the Center for Urban Transportation Research at the University of South Florida.
Many cities still aren't doing this, including big ones like Atlanta, Phoenix, and Detroit. Along with hundreds of other metros, these cities do provide their transit data directly to Google for use in Google Maps, using a standardized format Google developed known as the General Transit Feed Specification (or GTFS). Giving data to Google is not, however, what developers mean when they talk about "open data."
Barbeau and others want transit agencies to publicly release their GTFS files to everybody, so that any third-party developer (and not just Google) might turn that raw data into useful apps. Open-data advocates have been calling on transit agencies to do this for years, ever since TriMet in Portland, Oregon, first offered to release its data to Google in 2005. But the arrival of the new iPhone is ramping up the urgency. Once the new operating system rolls out, iPhone users everywhere will lose Google Maps' transit navigation. And iPhone users in cities like Detroit may not get replacements any time soon.
"This is why people have argued that open data is the best policy," Barbeau says, "because you can't really control what large vendors are going to do."
Transit advocate City-Go-Round maintains a list of the more than 200 transit agencies in the U.S. that still don't have open data. Its list of the top 10 largest laggards also includes Charlotte and the transportation authorities of Central and South Florida.* In the state of Georgia, there isn't a single transit agency publicly sharing its data.
"For many of the agencies, it was primarily that they didn't realize how valuable this was," says Kari Watkins, an assistant professor at Georgia Tech. "They didn't realize there were actually that many developers out there who would want to have access to it and who would create these apps for free around the data."
Some cities have feared the legal and security implications of ceding control over their information. And others have had a more prosaic concern. "They thought if these developers are out there," Watkins says, "and if they really want our data, should we be making money off it?"
This isn't quite as crass as it sounds. Most transit agencies are strapped for cash these days, and they can be forgiven for confusing their open data with a revenue stream. But by now dozens of cities have demonstrated that free open data can only help their customers.
Now the Atlanta Regional Commission is finally planning this fall to release data from the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority, in a clearinghouse alongside data from the rest of its regional agencies. Watkins, who has been arguing that case with her students, plans to host a developers conference at Georgia Tech in conjunction with the release to jumpstart the city's new transit-app ecosystem.
Phoenix's Public Transit Department says it is also now planning to release publicly all of their data through a portal run by the Valley Metro regional agency, although they don't yet have a timeline for when that will happen.
The iPhone may ultimately prove to be a catalyst for pushing open data in the cities that are still holdouts. But it also poses another question: Can dozens of transit apps in the iPhone store still serve riders as well as Google Maps?
"The part I worry about is that if this is not an obvious thing, it's not going to have as big of an impact on mode choice," Watkins says. Fewer people may spontaneously hop on the bus if they have to first search for and download an app just to tell them that the bus exists. "By having all the directions in the same app the way it is in Google Maps," she says, "people might actually think 'well what is this other transit button?'"
UPDATE [7/18]: We also reached out to Detroit this week for comment on why it doesn't release its GTFS files and whether it has plans to do so any time soon. Ronald Freeland, the head of the Detroit Department of Transportation called us back today. And, after a bit of confusion over exactly what we were talking about, he tells us, "We haven't been approached and we're not going to routinely release information that belongs to DDOT. But if individual developers would come to us and ask us for that, we certainly would consider it."
In other words, open-data advocates have a lot of work to do in Detroit.
"It's not a matter of our not being willing to provide information," Freeland adds. "But I'm not aware that anyone from our organization has been approached by developers wanting it."
Meanwhile, OpenPlans is at work on a Kickstarter campaign to fund a unified service for all of the currently available data feeds from transit agencies that could be used to build apps for the new iPhone (so you don't have to, say, download separate apps to get around New York City and Chicago). Sarah Lai Stirland has more on that at techPresident.
CORRECTION: An earlier version of this post included the Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Authority among a list of agencies that don't publicly release their GTFS files. The Cincinnati region now does, and aspiring developers can find the data here.
