Counting Jews of Color in the United States
The Changing Nature of Jewish Identity
Americans are increasingly characterized by switching their religions, mixed religious marriages, "recombined" religions and inter-racial marriage. The Jewish community, including Jews of color, are part of these national phenomena. The Jewish community is often too quick to reject Jews who are on these paths and journeys, looking to who is "in" and "out," rather than where individuals are on a continuum. Like many others in all religious groups across the American spectrum, many Jews of color are on their own spiritual and religious paths, sometimes resulting in conversion after living as a Jew for many years. Some may bring with them religious practices from their former religion until identity transformation to being Jewish is complete. Furthermore, conventional wisdom about race and religion do not necessarily apply (i.e., "Asians are Buddhist" or "Blacks are Christian"). The images of Jews are similarly inaccurate.
All of these issues are pressed even harder upon ethnically and racially diverse Jews. In the same way that Jews of color are a microcosm of the ways that Jewish organizations and institutions alienate many Jews, so is this population a microcosm for the "who is a Jew" issue. The constant questioning of the legitimacy of others now characterizes much of the rhetoric and behavior of the Jewish community. Has someone converted properly? When a child is adopted, are all the rituals followed? What is the nature of someone's lineage? Is the mother "really" Jewish? Halakah is important and so are standards. But the Jewish community has different and evolving standards. Are they applied uniformly and fairly?
We estimate at least 20% of the Jewish population is racially and ethnically diverse, including African, African American, Latino (Hispanic), Asian, Native American, Sephardic, Mizrahi and mixed-race Jews by heritage, adoption, and marriage. Calculating this number is challenging and requires examining a number of different sources.
First, according to the 2002 Institute for Jewish & Community Research study and the 2000 NJPS study, a little over 7% of America's 6 million Jews say that they are African American, Asian, Latino/Hispanic, or Native American or mixed-race, for a total of about 435,000 individuals. This includes 85,000 who say that they are some race other than white but do not classify themselves more specifically. Second, the NJPS 2000 found 120,000 Jewish adults living in the United States who were born in Latin America, the Middle East, Asia, and the Caribbean (not including Israel). We estimate that over half of this foreign-born population (not including children) is comprised of diverse Jews, adding another 65,000.
Third, the number of Israelis living in the United States is under great dispute, including those of diverse backgrounds. For example, the NJPS found only 70,000-93,000 Israelis living in the United States, while the most recent New York demographic study showed about 50,000 Israelis in New York alone. The U.S. Census reports almost 200,000 people who speak Hebrew at home. A 2003 study by the Israeli Foreign Ministry showed almost a half million (500,000) Israelis living in the U.S.
Therefore, based on the U.S. Census, we are conservatively estimating the total number of Israelis in the United States at 200,000. Because approximately half of the population in Israel is of Mizrahi, Sephardic, and African heritage (before the migration from the former Soviet Union), it stands to reason that about 50% of Israelis in the United States could be Mizrahi, Sephardic, or African Jews (who are not included in the other categories listed). Therefore, we conservatively estimate that 100,000 Israelis living in the United States are of diverse backgrounds, or 1.7% of American Jews. This brings the total to 600,000 diverse Jews, or about 10% of the population.
Fourth, a question regarding Sephardic heritage was not asked in the 2000 NJPS, although the 1990 National Jewish Population Study showed that 8% of American Jews said they were Sephardic. Is the real percentage 10%? More? We do not know, other than to surmise it is considerably higher than is reported.
The number of Jews with some Sephardic heritage is likely to be grossly underestimated in many Jewish surveys, including the NJPS. Sephardic heritage is especially apt to be lost in individuals' self-reporting. Many people do not know about their Sephardic background, especially given the propensity of different groups of Jews to intermarry over generations throughout the Diaspora. Taking into consideration all these factors, we are conservatively estimating 10% of the United States population has some Sephardic heritage, in addition to those who say their race is Latino/Hispanic. We have taken into account potential overlap in this reporting and adjusted our estimate accordingly.
Adding 600,000 Sephardic Jews or 10% of the Jewish population together with 600,000 or 10% of Black, Asian, Latino and mixed-race Jews means 1.2 million or 20% of the Jewish population in the United States is diverse. This includes individuals who have converted to Judaism, individuals who have been adopted into Jewish families and raised as Jews, the multiracial children of partnerships between Ashkenazi Jews and people of color, and those who are themselves the generational descendants of Jews of color and those of Sephardic and Mizrahi heritage.

Senate blowup threatens Dewhurst's future
AUSTIN — With the crowd in the Texas Senate gallery chanting at deafening levels, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst stood at the podium with his hands in his pockets as his fellow Republicans pleaded and shouted for order.
The protesters refused to settle down as Dewhurst scrambled to the Senate floor and desperately tried to beat a midnight deadline to save one of his top priorities: legislation limiting abortions. He failed, amid one of the wildest scenes in the Texas Legislature in recent memory.
The bill will get another chance next week now that the governor has called another special legislative session, but Dewhurst's political future may not be so easily saved.
Damage left by the raucous scene of an out-of-control Senate — broadcast live on the Internet — has made Dewhurst a target for blame among rivals within his own party who wonder why the presiding officer of the chamber let it happen.
Texas' lieutenant governor is one of the most powerful politicians in the state. Elected statewide and independent of the governor's office, the lieutenant governor controls the flow of legislation in the Senate. Dewhurst has held the post since 2002, when he rode a conservative wave that has allowed Republicans to dominate state politics for more than a decade. But he suffered a crushing defeat by a fellow Republican in last year's U.S. Senate race.
The protesters were in the gallery Tuesday to support Democratic Sen. Wendy Davis as she filibustered the abortion bill for nearly 12 hours — without breaks — during a special legislative session. Official records hold that the bill passed just before midnight but that Dewhurst didn't have time to sign it and send it to Gov. Rick Perry.
Still, Dewhurst faced almost immediate criticism from rivals within his own party, and the finger-pointing likely won't go away as he tries for re-election to a fourth term next year. Along with the abortion bill — which opponents say would essentially shut down most abortion clinics in Texas — the chaos also blocked the passage of major transportation and juvenile justice measures.
"Clearly his opponents pounced on this. The meltdown in the Senate amplified the problems Dewhurst already had with his base among GOP primary voters," said Jim Henson, director of the Texas Politics Project at the University of Texas at Austin.
"It wasn't his best moment," added Republican political consultant Bill Miller. "It was a national show. It was being viewed by people around the country and around the world. It was bad TV. (But) I think it's survivable. He already had people wanting his job, so there's nothing too new to that."
Dewhurst, who is scheduled to speak Saturday at the National Right to Life conference in suburban Dallas, said at the time that he didn't lose control of the chamber. He later released a statement saying he was "furious" about how the session ended.
"(An) unruly, screaming mob using Occupy Wall Street tactics derailed legislation intended to protect the health of Texas women and their babies," Dewhurst said. "I pledge to Texas one thing: This fight is far from over."
He has since declined comment.
The veteran politician had already been trying to patch up a political career staggered by a crushing loss in last year's U.S. Senate race to political newcomer and tea party darling Ted Cruz, who labeled Dewhurst a moderate. That loss during the GOP primary stunned the Republican establishment, and it drove Dewhurst to do whatever he could to restore his conservative credentials in 2013 on volatile issues.
After the regular legislative session ended, Dewhurst pushed Perry to call the special session and put abortion on the agenda. When that effort fizzled, his enemies pounced.
"In the end, the responsibility for the Texas Senate falls on one man," said Texas Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson, one of three Republicans challenging Dewhurst in the 2014 election. "I strongly believe he has lost his grip on the reins of the Senate and his horse has run wild."
Perry has now called a second 30-day special session to start Monday. Given a new start and large majorities in the House and Senate, Republicans are all but assured of passing the bill.
But opponents and Democrats have turned the incident into a rallying call, and Davis' filibuster turned her into a galvanizing figure in the national debate over abortion rights.
The activists who crowded the Senate gallery had maintained decorum for most of the day. They didn't erupt until Democrats complained Dewhurst tried to unilaterally move to end Davis' filibuster without a full Senate vote — a vote Republicans would have won and still given them time to pass the abortion bill.
Sen. Dan Patrick, whom Dewhurst appointed to chair the Senate's powerful education committee, announced Thursday he would run against Dewhurst in 2014. He said the chamber needs new leadership.
"We elevated a rallying point for the other party," Patrick said. "It should never have happened."

I recently heard some very sad news. Christine's feisty little girl, Daisy was put to sleep in January due to complications with her arthritis. I was told her hind legs gave out from under her and she was unable to walk. I know in September at her vet visit the vet informed Christine's daughter that Daisy had some really bad arthritis, I also know there was some concern because she her spleen was a bit enlarged, which can also cause a dog to lose the ability to walk.
RIP Miss Daisy, you were definitely a tough old lady! You raised several young'ns in your life... I am sure these last few months were very confusing for you... I'm just glad you're able to be in the arms of your mom once again, and able to be with your buddy Mick. I'm sure Christine is spoiling you rotten up there
For anyone curious, Faust is doing really well - keeping up with his kids and living with a chihuahua. Sepp is great, we're going to try for his CGC in June. Anyway - I just thought most of Christine's friends would want an update, especially on Daisy since she was getting up there in age and had to go through so many life changes.

My grandma used to say that "nothing in the world that is worth doing comes easy. If it is really worth it, it will require effort and sacrifice." So, as I bounced my way down a pothole-riddled road to get to Flora's Field Kitchen Restaurant outside the Mexican city of San Jose del Cabo, I couldn't help thinking that this place was going to be special. Mind you, any successful restaurant in the middle of a farmer's field is something worth checking out.
Flora Farms is owned by Patrick and Gloria Greene, a pair of California expats who purchased the farm in 1996 and began producing organic fruits and vegetables in the Mexican desert. From humble beginnings, the farm has grown and today more than 80 different varieties of fruits, herbs and vegetables are grown on-site. The Greenes own more than 150 acres of farmland and even produce their own organic, free-range chicken and pork at a location away from the main restaurant site.
A few years ago, they built Flora's Field Kitchen Restaurant in the middle of one of their vegetable fields with the idea of creating a menu entirely based on the farm-to-table cuisine concept. It is one of those "if you build it they will come" stories in their very own "Field of Dreams," because the restaurant has become one of the hottest dining spots in Cabo. Hollywood celebrities have even been known to venture out on the long, bumpy road just to enjoy an evening on the farm. The restaurant is said to be a favourite dining spot of both George Clooney and Jennifer Aniston. Like most visitors to the farm, I began my visit with a tour of the extensive gardens.
Our guide, Sonja, an expat from Calgary, described the many different species of vegetables and explained the unique techniques used to grow them organically and ecologically in a desert-like environment. Weeding and harvesting is all done by hand and about 100 local people are employed by the farm. There is a community garden on-site, a restaurant, a bar and a unique housing project that will see several vacation homes built around the vegetable gardens. Part of the appeal of having one of these vacation properties is that owners will have the opportunity to walk out into the fields to harvest fresh fruits and vegetables to use in their own kitchens.
One of the latest farm offerings is a series of cooking classes that allow farm visitors to learn to make authentic Mexican food from scratch. I was signed up to take a seasonal salsa class with Chef Victor and his assistant Delores and that was my next stop. Chef Victor, or Tío as they call him on the farm, taught our small cooking group how to make a roasted tomato salsa, an uncooked salsa fresca, and a traditional guacamole. Delores taught us the techniques for making fresh corn tortillas.
As might be expected, the cooking class was laid back and relaxed. At first, everyone participated in blending the ingredients, but after a few margaritas from Flora's Farm Bar there was a lot more sampling than mixing happening - for my part, anyways. By the time our class was finished, we were all impressed with how simple it was to make these basic Mexican dishes.
One of the participants vowed that she would never purchase premade salsa again. It was a bold statement, but then again she had consumed a few more margaritas than I had and I am pretty sure they were not the "virgin" version I had been knocking back.
I capped off the afternoon by having lunch at Flora's Field Kitchen Restaurant. There is a good selection of pizzas and other American specialties, but I stuck with Mexican fare and enjoyed organic chicken enchiladas served with a fresh garden salad, beans and rice. I usually don't eat dessert with lunch, but the farm fresh key lime pie was too good to pass up.
As I prepared to take the long, bumpy road back to my beach resort in Los Cabos, I knew that my Grandma was right once again - it isn't easy to get to Flora Farms, but it is definitely worth the effort. Debbie Olsen is an Alberta-based freelance writer.
If you go:
Flora Farms is located outside San José del Cabo and is open Tuesday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily with breakfast, lunch and dinner served in the restaurant on those days and a special brunch service on Sundays. Reservations are recommended. A three-course lunch will cost about $20 and a three-course dinner will cost about $40. You can get to the farm via a cab or rental car.
The seasonal salsa class takes place on Tuesdays and Fridays and costs $50 per person. A farm tour, cocktail and lunch are included with the cooking class. For reservations or information, contact Sonja at: email@example.com

Worst Oscar Disappointment: Sandy Bullock
Lainey thinks I'm contrary. I am not. (Lainey: she totally is.) But sometimes if there's an overwhelming opinion that comes at me before I've had a chance to make up my own mind, I will work hard to find validation in the other direction. Just so there's no chance I'm following the crowd. It's why I either see movies early or not at all - I can't deal with the hype.
I felt this way about Sandra Bullock's dress. Everyone somehow saw it a millisecond before I did, and I thought, black, white, blouson, open back, maybe it won't be bad. I know a lot of people hated it merely because of the label that dare not speak its name.
I saw it and, okay, the fit was odd It looked lazy at her ribcage instead of relaxed. I still didn't hate it the way some of you did.
But then you combine it with what she did to her face, and I'm not mad, I'm disappointed. I thought Sandra was different. I thought she knew there were benefits to growing old gracefully, to emulating her friend Meryl Streep.
That's why this article is about "Sandy",not Sandra. "Sandy" seems to me the type to be in the salon every week, trying every new product, getting just a little more bleached and a little more tan each time. "Sandy" worries about keeping up with the Joneses or at least their youth levels. "Sandy" stews over and competes with the other women in the daycare social circle. Which is why she had to go and pull her face up by a few pores. If you don't believe me, by the way, take a look at a shot of her neck. t has not been "rejuvenated".
She's not perfect, I know, blah blah, lest we forget, but I just thought Sandra Bullock was better than this somehow. You think she's disappointed in herself?
(Lainey counterpart: I don't know what's wrong with me but I still think it might be just the Croydon facelift. Some people just have really old looking necks. Like I've seen 25 year old necks that look older than Madonna's. Isn't that genetic?)

These bars are nothing super special, just a treat that we hadn't had in a long time.
I know... marshmallows and rice cereal isn't that great for you, but every once and a while we splurge.
When I pulled my box of cereal out, I was shocked to not see their recipe on the box! One phone call to my mom solved that problem -- and thus, why you are seeing this recipe here. I'm pretty sure everyone has this recipe somewhere, and now I do too.
Next time, I'm aiming to try this recipe using brown rice puffs and homemade marshmallows. We'll see how that goes :)

Student or Learner
Chose another topic and it only took me 30mins.
Are Parents Best Teachers?
As a matter of fact, our parents are the ones who gave us life. Everyday we thanks them for giving us the opportunity to live. From the moment we were born, they had been watching us growing up, guiding us to do the right decisions, giving us advises, and other things that only a child might interact with their parents. I consider that parents are the best teachers we can ever have due to the fact that they are the most precious people who will be there always for you. There are a lot of advantages that parents are the best role model to continue. Teachers from school are not the ones who teach you about feelings. Nevertheless, they were and are the ones who teaches us how to read, add, subtract, and other material needs.
At school, we can learn a lot of new things during all those eight hours of classes per week. For instance, a teacher will be teaching their students how to read, to subtract, to add, and other subjects. I think that teachers may have been giving us the definition of what love, friendship, and all the types of feelings are, but most of the teachers are just making us to learn the definition and we probably will not practice them. Every week we see our teachers teaching us new things for us for a long period of time. However, students spend more time with their parents rather than with teachers. Teachers are not the ones who see them doing the homework, talking with them personally, nor seeing them sleep. Being with your parents, which all child must convey with them everyday, is the best time in your life. They will tell you their experiences about how hard they came as they are now, will tell you their stories, etc... As long as they teaches their child to the right side, them they are the best teachers a child could ever had. For example, when I was a little child, I always thrown the piece of plastic bag outside the garbage can, and my mother used to say: "No sweety, you did not throw your bag properly, please pick it up and throw it to the can" As you may see, all parents will try to correct you if they think you are doing something wrong. They are the ones who will tell you whether is correct or not what you are doing.
Not only parents will teach us what is right and what not, but also they will teach us all types of feelings. Everyday before going to school, my mother used to give me a big hug and put my lunch in my bag and says "Take care darling". In this case, she is trying to show how much she loves me by doing all this things for me. This is called love. The first value that our parents will teach us is love. Throughout all the years that you will be with your parents will show how lovely they are with you. If they teaches how to love, them in the future you will also know how to teach your generation how to love. It is important to take in consideration that we spend more time with our parents rather than with teachers. Teachers could have taught us the definition of love, but they never show us what is the real significance of love. Teachers are ther to guide you whether it is right or wrong, but if you ignore your teacher's advices, then there will be your parents to guide you.
There are also parents that are good teachers in the material part. Whenever their child do not understand an homework, they try to ask their parents how to do it. Parents will be always there for your questions. No matter how busy they will be because of their job, they will find a time for you. For example, I was assigned to do a project where I need to demonstrate the quantity of people who likes to eat fruits and who do not. It was a huge project, and I could not do that by myself. So I ask my dad's help since they will know much more than me. They have already experienced all these things I am about to experience because they have been through this. My dad helped me whenever he could because of his job. It is not easy to work and teach your child because there is not enough time. Nevertheless, parents must frequently have time to their children so that they can see whether or not they have been guide to the right side.
As we have seen, parents are the best teachers for every child. They will teach you and guide you to what is right. Indeed, you will spend most of the time at home. So most of the occasion is that mothers are there always. They will give advices for you whenever you have doubts of something and will also tell you about their expericenes she had been through. In conclusion, I consider that parents are the best teachers because they will be always there for you in your happy and sad moments.

DAB bank AG Customer Story
- Smooth technical integration using a CMIS interface
- Few customization tasks
- Substitution of current processes based on hard copies with fully digitized B2B trading processes
- Archiving and managing 50 to 100 new documents daily
- Simplified search in documents stored audit-proof
- More transparency and control over closed and active processes
- Connecting ten people in a B2B trading process
The Challenge
Based in Munich, DAB bank AG is Germany's first discount broker. As a direct customer service bank, it offers a comprehensive range of services focusing on investment growth and safety using securities. Its products provide solutions for savers, investors and traders. In business banking, DAB bank is a partner for investment firms, fund managers, financial consultants as well as banks and savings and loan institutions.
In order to meet future challenges fully prepared and with continued flexibility, DAB planned to introduce the SOA BPM platform as a new foundation technology for the enterprise. The goal was to use a single centralized platform to map complex processes from now on. All process-related documents were to be managed with a powerful document management system.
The first project deployed in the new environment consisted of a B2B customer process: Telephone trade transactions with brokers and other business partners. All order data have to be captured in some kind of ticket. Along with additional documentation, such as order confirmation from trading centers, DAB staff then forwards this data for processing. Of particular importance for a financial institution is to store all documents in compliance with audit-proof requirements.
Until now the process was conducted primarily with hard copies where all documents were printed and filed in folders. Even though DAB bank already has an electronic archive available (IBM FileNet Image Services), it was unable to utilize it for this process, because of architectural concerns.
The new system had to meet several challenging requirements:
- Efficient implementation of new applications and processes
- Agility to change existing processes
- Stability, scalability, performance, cluster capability and ease of administration
- Flexibility in system maintenance (execution of changes, testing, deployment)
- Low operating costs while considering all costs for licensing, support and ongoing maintenance
- Capability to be integrated into the existing system environment
- Capability for further architectural development
- Control and monitoring via a single centralized process engine
In choosing this new technology, the stakeholders at DAB placed particular emphasis on setting a permanent course for the future. Additionally, project organization was also expected to ensure a long-term efficient cooperation between individual departments and IT, and to provide a model for future projects.
The Solution
In order to select the appropriate document management system or enterprise content management system, DAB requested the support of CENIT AG, an experienced partner in enterprise information management. Initially, the companies investigated the following solutions for optimized usage given the existing requirements, i.e., IBM FileNet Image Services, IBM FileNet P8 Content Manager, Alfresco and Microsoft Sharepoint.
Alfresco emerged rather quickly as the best solution due to its integration capabilities and especially due to its CMIS default interface. The Alfresco platform, integrated via CMIS, proved to be a perfect match for the standard DAB technology stack (Linux, Tomcat, Java). Its modular architecture ensures superb scalability and is also very easy to install. Another benefit for DAB and CENIT was the ease with which all required features could be configured. As for implementing the B2B process, the open source solution offered yet another plus.
As a standalone option, Activiti is the foundation for the SOA BPM platform at this time. At the same time, Activiti is the integrated Alfresco component, which will serve to implement document-related workflows, e.g. release processes.
After choosing Alfresco as their ECM platform, CENIT assisted DAB with planning, implementing, configuring and customizing the new Alfresco system. The technical integration of Alfresco into the SOA platform was facilitated by the CMIS interface and required very little effort. DAB's industry specific requirements were essentially covered by Alfresco's standard functionality which meant minimal customization. CENIT customized Alfresco Enterprise 4 to meet company specific security requirements and assisted in the setup of rights for the site creation. The user interface Alfresco Share was also tailored exactly to DAB bank's requirements, for instance by creating a specific search form.
ECM experts at CENIT were able to make rapid progress on the project. The lack of an existing system requiring replacement and not having to migrate any documents proved to be a great benefit. Due to the smooth execution of design and configuration of the Alfresco system, the bank was able to deploy the new document management system in just two months.
Final result
DAB has been using the Alfresco ECM platform in full production since June 2012. The workflow for a selected process in the security commission trade is now being controlled via the new SOA BPM platform based on Activiti. At present, ten people are working on the electronic documents within the new system. Searches for current or closed transactions are conducted using the customized search form in Alfresco Share. You can search for documents using either meta data or full text.
This provides DAB with significant advantages. The bank is now able to handle the process including all documents electronically, thus eliminating the paper-based workflow. Staff members save time by being able to search stored documents quickly and thoroughly. This increases transparency and control of all closed and active processes.
Next Steps
CENIT AG and DAB bank AG are already working on their next, common challenges. They are planning to evaluate Alfresco platform's collaborative features in order to cooperate on projects, and start a pilot project. If all goes according to plan, Alfresco will replace all network drives designated for that purpose. In addition, plans are being made to further expand Alfresco as a document repository, because it is ideal for system-wide business processes supported by the SOA BPM platform.
Over many years CENIT AG has become an expert in optimizing business processes using ECM solutions due to their experience based on many customer projects. CENIT AG provides assistance during all aspects of the optimization process, from selecting the best system for you to project implementation. CENIT AG also offers post-project support.

Difference between revisions of "Wikitravel:Offline reader Expedition"
Revision as of 00:43, 13 August 2010
The Offline Reader Expedition is a Wikitravel Expedition to make it possible to download and use Wikitravel articles off-line (not connected to the Internet), especially on a personal digital assistant (PDA).
This open-source OxygenGuide offline reader works on Androids, Kindles, and numerous other devices.
The iPhone/iPod Touch app Offline Wikitravel, a complete snapshot of Wikitravel, is available on the App Store.
The (free) Android/iPhone/iPod Touch app iTravelFree allows you to download any number of Wikitravel pages to your device for later offline access, among other features.
A plucker (.pdb) continent-by-continent offline eBook download is available at: tripsteps.com/ebook
iPhone and iPod Touch users with a jailbroken device can install an English Wikitravel dump (Mar 2010, 39MB) in wiki2touch for full offline access.
Wikitravel has two main target media: online use over the World Wide Web, and offline use in hardcopy (paper) form. It's possible, however, to have electronic files that you can read on a computer or a PDA even when you aren't connected to the Internet (shocking!). This could be very useful for some travellers (although there are plenty of us who can't or don't want to use a portable computer or PDA). Being able to navigate through a number of articles with a hand-held device could make it a lot easier to get around.
Database dump containing content from all pages.
Since there are no database dumps available yet you might try to use httrack to download all pages.
An unofficial dump (Mar 2010, 39MB) in raw XML format, as output by MediaWiki, can be used with several of the products listed below.
There is also a dump available on the website www.allebone.org, as well as the source code used to retrieve the dumps.
Target formats
There are a few main off-line readers for PDAs. Most define their own file format, although some can read plain text files and HTML files.
Of these, Plucker seems like the nicest one. It's being actively worked on, and it is Free Software, and that means that you can use it without charge, that you can give it away to others, and that you can even modify the program (or pay others to do it for you) to customize it or add the features you want.
Raw XML dumps of the database would likely be the technically simplest option for Wikitravel to release its data. These dumps are large, highly-compressible, single files which are, among other things suitable for distribution via BitTorrent. Interested parties could convert these to their desired format for use or redistribution.
User interface
There are several levels of UI we can provide.

MUDDY CREEK TWP — Authorities believe they have found the body of a missing Franklin Township man.
The remains were found Sunday afternoon in a Jeep in a wooded area off Kelly Road. Mickey Scheller, 21, disappeared Aug. 7 while supposedly head to work.
Butler County Coroner William Young said the body was found in a Jeep and had a pin in the leg, just as Scheller had in his.
Young said there is no indication the death was a homicide.
"There didn't appear to be foul play," he said.
Young is awaiting results of an autopsy. He said the results of the toxicology reports won't be ready for two to three weeks.
Young said a couple dirt bike riders found the Jeep nearly a mile into the woods.
After Scheller vanished, search efforts included a helicopter crew and a dive team. His family posted flyers and contacted traditional and social media outlets.

Mayor Don Wesely and Police Chief Tom Casady today urged citizens to report any information they may have concerning vandalism to about 50 stop signs in southeast Lincoln. The City Public Works and Utilities Department has received calls over the last few days about the word "war" being spray painted on the signs.
"Emotions are running high over the war in Iraq, but this is just senseless vandalism that is costing our community," said Mayor Wesely.
Engineering and Traffic Manager Scott Opfer said the type of paint being used to deface the signs cannot be removed without destroying their reflectivity, so the signs must be replaced at a cost of about $50 per sign.
Those with information can call Crimestoppers at 475-3600. Callers can remain anonymous, and they may be eligible for a cash reward if their information leads to an arrest.

Windows 8 hit physical and electronic store shelves this morning, and Mobile Nations' own WPCentral was up early grabbing Surfaces and giving everything a look. For iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad users, however, you can also now get your hands on Microsoft's latest and greatest operating system. If you are a Windows user, like most of us, you can download Windows 8 Pro and install it straight onto your PC as an upgrade to an existing Windows installation or set up your computer as a new PC and wipe it clean.
Windows 8 comes with an upgrade compatibility wizard which will check your hardware and software and let you know what is compatible and what isn't. It looks like the current version of iTunes is compatible -- but there's something you need to be especially aware of.
You need to de-authorize iTunes on your computer BEFORE you upgrade to Windows 8. If you don't do this, it will be authorized as an additional machine and use up two out of your five allowed computers.
To de-authorize a computer in iTunes follow these simple steps:-
- Open iTunes
- Click on the Store tab
- Click on De-authorize this computer
- Enter your username and password
- Hit Ok and you should get a confirmation message saying "This computer has been successfully de-authorized".
If you decide to upgrade to Windows 8, you can download the update from Microsoft for $39.99 or buy it on physical media for $69.99. If you want to discover exactly what Windows 8 is all about, Microsoft has you covered with a dedicatedWindows 8 portal right here.
I will be updating my computer over the weekend so should have some more information on using your iPhone or iPad with Windows 8. If anyone else does the update, let us know how it goes in the comments!

Back in 2009, Reich et al. theorized that the current South Asian gene pool was basically made up of two founding genetic components; Ancestral North Indian (ANI), and Ancestral South Indian (ASI). The distilled ANI, they noted, was more similar to the genomes of modern Northwest Europeans than those of the Adygei from the Caucasus. This is obviously out of whack with geography, but it does make sense based on what I've seen in my experiments on the Pakistani samples from the HGDP. Many of them, especially the Pathans, carry numerous segments, or haploblocks, that basically look North European. This gave me an idea to try and reconstruct the ANI genome based on such fragments. The first chromosome of my composite sample, which I call the "ANI composite" is available for download here. It's a PLINK Ped file in illumina AB format with 19,261 SNPs.
Below are several PCA plots featuring the "ANI composite", obviously not including the HGDP samples used to make it (see below). Overall, it seems to resemble most closely my reference samples from Eastern Europe. I have to admit that I was very pleased to see it behaving like a set of genotypes from a real human subject across many dimensions of genetic variation. PCA are very sensitive to anomalies, such as unusually long runs of homozygosity, so the fact that my composite can pass for a normal sample on these plots is fantastic.
So how did I do this? Well, it wasn't very difficult, but a bit tedious, so I need a break before continuing. I used information from my earlier experiments with ADMIXMAP, HAPMIX and RHH Counter to locate and delineate North European-like segments in phased Pakistani HGDP samples. I phased the data myself with BEAGLE, in a pool of South Asian and Middle Eastern samples, so as not to bias the results of phasing and imputation towards Northern Europe. In order to keep the alleles in phase when loaded into PLINK, I duplicated the haplotypes, producing completely homozygous individuals out of each one. Then I created an ANI composite dummy with 100% no calls, and loaded the haplotypes into this sample with a Python script. The first to load were the Pathan haplotypes, followed by the Burusho. I chose individuals from these two groups to make up the backbone of the putative ANI genome because they always seem to come out most "North European" in my ADMIXTURE and PCA/MDS runs compared to other South Asians. The empty spaces were filled with haplotypes from the Brahui and Balochi. Below is a list of all the samples used:
Pathan HGDP00213
Pathan HGDP00214
Pathan HGDP00218
Pathan HGDP00224
Pathan HGDP00241

The phased data and the "ANI" haplotypes used in this experiment are available on request from eurogenesblog [at] hotmail [dot] com. I welcome feedback and suggestions on how to improve my methodology. Admittedly, this was a test run, so it's unlikely to be perfect.

As summer approached, Danny Murphy counted the days until he got back to Popponesset on Cape Cod. He loved Poppy. He spent his summers there as a kid. His mother retired there, and it was where the sprawling Murphy clan from Jamaica Plain reunited every summer.
It was summer, 40 years ago, that everything changed for Danny Murphy. He had just finished his freshman year at Stonehill and was caddying at New Seabury. His buddies told the golfers that Danny was one of the Kennedy kids, and the golfers believed it, because Danny had the big Kennedy hair, the toothy Kennedy smile, the visceral Kennedy charisma.
One morning, a few days short of his 19th birthday, Danny and his buddies sailed over to Martha's Vineyard. A new kid in their crowd, Peter Farrelly, climbed on a piling, poised to dive into Oak Bluffs Harbor, and Danny reminded him of the seniority pecking order. Danny Murphy would dive first.
"How deep is it?" Pat Loftus, one of Danny's classmates at Boston Latin School, called over to Danny.
"Deep enough for the ferry," Danny replied.
Danny and Pat both dove in, but only Pat came up. Danny hit a shallow spot and broke his neck. At approximately the same time Richard Nixon resigned the presidency, Big Dan Murphy and his wife, Betty, were told their son Danny was paralyzed from the chest down.
Danny took his plight with remarkable equanimity, so much so that his friends and family were a bit unnerved. Shouldn't he be more depressed? Shouldn't he be railing, "Why me? Why me?"
Instead, Danny tried everything he could to get better. When everybody around him wanted to cry, he wanted to make them laugh. During the year he spent at Mass. General, he was stretched out and rotated, like a rotisserie chicken. When he was facing down, his little brother Mark would slip under him and lie on the floor so they could talk. Danny would let a long string of saliva drip down, sucking it back just before it made contact with Mark's face.
"Nothing had changed," Mark Murphy said. "He was still my big brother, busting my chops. You hear how people become miserable after an accident like that. My brother was just the opposite. He became a saint, very spiritual."
Danny Murphy became an inspiration for all his so-called able-bodied friends. He mocked the phrase "confined to a wheelchair." Nothing confined him. There are some people who have full use of their legs and go nowhere in life. Danny Murphy was paralyzed and he went everywhere.
He finished college, got his driver's license, got a corporate job, got married, built a house, got divorced, quit the rat race, and moved to Los Angeles and became a struggling actor. When he complained to his buddies Peter and Bobby Farrelly that they didn't cast anybody in a wheelchair in their hit movie "Dumb and Dumber," they gave him cameos in all their other films. In "Kingpin," he was the mean guy who wrecks Woody Harrelson's hand in the ball return. Danny was subversive. He liked the idea of challenging stereotypes, so everybody in a wheelchair wasn't all sweetness and light.
After 10 years of trying to make a living in show business, Danny left LA and moved back to Florida and in with his sister Nancy. His youngest sister, Elly, lived in Florida, too. It was like a sitcom. Danny's hands never worked as well as he'd like. Nancy would come home and find water spilled on the floor. She'd look at Danny and he'd tell her in some crazy, indecipherable accent that someone had broken into their condo and dumped water on the floor.
He went back to Poppy every August, for his birthday, and for his mom. Even after he was diagnosed with cancer last fall, even after they took out his bladder, Danny Murphy kept saying he would be back in Poppy by August, and he was. He came back this week, in a casket. I can hear Danny now: "I said I'd be back, and I'm back." We're all crying, and Danny's laughing.
Before he died, Danny put a clause in his will to create a scholarship at Boston Latin for kids with disabilities who are interested in the arts.
He went back to Popponesset on the Cape every August, for his birthday, and for his mom.
"Danny wasn't afraid of dying," his old friend Pat Loftus said. "He said that when he was in the water, it took him a moment to realize that the things floating in front of his face were his hands and that he had no control of them. Then he lost consciousness, but he said it was very peaceful, like going to sleep."
Life can float in front of us, like useless hands, sometimes uncontrollable, sometimes unfathomable. Danny Murphy rolled with it, teaching everybody else as he went along, because that's how he rolled.
His funeral is Thursday, at Christ the King church in Mashpee, just down the road from Poppy. He will be buried in Bourne, next to his dad, Big Dan, on the Cape, where Danny Murphy spent his best days, in the bosom of his family, in the sun, in the breeze, in the salty water where he lost his mobility and gained everything else a man could want.Kevin Cullen is a Globe columnist.

News from the Field…
Indiana Epidemiology Newsletter
May 2008
District 3 News
Brad Beard
ISDH Field Epidemiologist, District 3
Tammy McMaken, RN
DeKalb County Health Department
In April, District 3 partners conducted a pandemic influenza tabletop exercise with Purdue University. The exercise allowed agencies and major stakeholders in the 11 District 3 counties to begin discussing and planning for the local response to an influenza pandemic. Overall, the comments received following the exercise indicated this goal was achieved. While there were concerns regarding the lack of sufficient time to fully discuss the issues, participants were informed that this was not the intent of the exercise, and further discussions within the counties are vital to successfully implement a workable plan. Information shared was beneficial regardless of county size. The exercise provided insight into issues faced by surrounding counties as well as solutions which could be applied to the participants' individual counties. Specific issues, including antiviral usage, personal protective equipment, pre-pandemic vaccine, surge capacity, and alternate care facilities, were addressed in three different modules,.
Also in April, Mike Wilkinson, ISDH Hepatitis C Epidemiologist, presented information on hepatitis C case investigations to attendees from District 3 local health departments. He shared general information on hepatitis C trends in Indiana, hepatitis C transmission, and interpretation of common laboratory tests and reviewed the process for submitting case investigation reports. In addition, he provided guidance for ensuring proper transmission of these reports. Additional questions relating to hepatitis C surveillance can be directed to Mike at 317.234.2827.

Virgil Abloh is responsible for the high fashion streetwear brand Off-White. Forcing the streetwear crowd to view the urban scene through his disruptive architectural eye, Abloh created a line that combines graphic emblems and Japanese infused structure for a hype driven audience. After gaining momentum with his prior brand Pyrex, sold originally in his multi-designer boutique, Virgil used his outlook as a global citizen to create a new concept inspired by the cross pollination of current omnichannel media. The outcome was an athletically city driven line with a high-end, gender neutral finish.

Aron Ralston: Amputated his lower right Arm to Survive the Mountains
On May 2003, while Aron Ralston was on a canyoneering trip in Blue John Canyon (near Moab, Utah), a boulder fell and pinned his right forearm, crushing it.
After trying for five days to lift and break the boulder, desperation took him to great measures like carving his name, date of birth and date of death into the boulder, drinking his own urine because of lack of water and videotaping his last goodbyes to his family.
Finally, a dehydrated and delirious Ralston decided to bow his arm against a chockstone and snap the radius and ulna bones. Using the dull blade on his multiuse tool, he cut the soft tissue around the break.
He then used the tool's pliers to tear at the tougher tendons. After Ralston was rescued, his arm was retrieved by park authorities and removed from under the boulder. It was cremated and given to Ralston. He returned to the boulder and left the ashes there.
Vesna Vulovic: The Stewardess Who Survived a terrorist attack at 33,000 feet
On January 26, 1972, a Yugoslav Airlines DC-9 departed from Copenhagen for Belgrade (via Zagreb) with 28 passengers and crew. At an altitude of 33,000 feet, a bomb in the cargo section, planted by the Ustashe Croatian separatist group, exploded. The plane disintegrated and crashed on the mountains.
In what must be one of the greatest survival stories of all time, stewardess Vesna Vulovic survived the 33,000 foot descent sitting on the tail of the plane.
22 year old Vulovic wasn't even supposed to be on that plane. As she later stated in an interview, it was another Vesna who was supposed to be on that flight, but she was happy with the mix-up as it allowed her to make her first trip to Denmark. She ended up with a fractured skull, two broken legs, and three broken vertebrae - one of which was crushed and left her paralyzed from the waist down.
Vulovic spent several months in and out of hospitals; operations allowed her to walk again. She became a celebrity when the Guinness Book of World Records invited her to a ceremony in London with Paul McCartney. She is listed for surviving the longest fall without a parachute. Vulovic is now a national hero in Serbia and spent the late 90s marching in Belgrade against Slobodan Milosovic.
Frane Selak: Escaped from a derailed train, a door-less plane, a bus crash, a car into flames, another 2 car accidents... then won Million Dollar lottery!
Luck has always been on his side or vice versa for croatian music teacher Frane Selak (born in 1929), who is well known around the world for as many fatal accidents as spectacular escapes. The first of his numerous near-death experiences began on a cold January day in 1962, when Selak was on a train to Dubrovnik: it suddenly derailed into an icy river, killing 17 passengers. He managed to escape with a broken arm, minor scratches and bruises.
A year later, Selak was flying, from Zagreb to Rijeka, when a door abruptly blew away from the cockpit of the plane, as he was blown off the plane. The accident killed 19 people, however, Selak was lucky enough to land on a haystack, and wake up some days later in hospital, with minor injuries.
It was in 1966 that he met with the third misadventure while traveling on a bus that crashed and plunged into a river. There were four people dead. Astonishingly, Selak managed to escape unharmed again.
In 1970, Selak was driving along when, all of a sudden, his car caught fire. He was fortunate again to have left the car before the fuel tank exploded. Three years later, another of Selak's car caught fire, blowing flames through the air vents. To a greater dismay, Selak's lost most of his hair.
In 1995, Selak was in Zagreb when he was hit by a bus, again leaving nothing but a few injuries. The following year, while driving through a mountain road, Selak drove off a guardrail to escape an oncoming truck and landed on a tree to watch his car explode 300 feet below.
In a surprising turn of events in 2003, Selak won the million-dollar Croatian lottery, turning the man into either the world's unluckiest man, or the world's luckiest one.
Andes Survivors: Crashed on the Andes Mountains, lasted 72 days
On Friday the 13th of October, 1972, a Uruguayan Air Force twin turboprop Fairchild FH-227D was flying over the Andes carrying Stella Maris College's "Old Christians" rugby union team from Montevideo, Uruguay, to play a match in Santiago, Chile. When the plane was flying through the pass in the mountains, the pilot notified air controllers in Santiago that he was over Curicó, Chile, and was cleared to descend. This would prove to be a fatal error. Since the pass was covered by the clouds, the pilots had to rely on the usual time required to cross the pass (dead reckoning). However, they failed to take into account strong headwinds that ultimately slowed the plane and increased the time required to complete the crossing. As a result, the turn and descent was initiated too soon, before the plane had passed through the mountains. Dipping into the cloud cover while still over the mountains, the Fairchild soon crashed on an unnamed peak (later called Glacier of Tears), located between Chile and Argentina.
Twelve people died in the crash. Survivors not only had to withstand the hunger and the fearful Mountains, but also 30 degree-below-zero temperatures during the night. They tried to survive with the scarce food reserves they had until being rescued, but they lost their hope when heard that the search had ceased on the radio. Desperate owing to the lack of food and physically exhausted, they were forced to feed themselves on their death partners to keep on living. Finally fed up with the extremely low temperatures and the avalanche threats, as well as anguished by the continuos deaths of their partners and the bad rescue prospects, two of them decided to cross the huge mountains to reach Chile. On 22nd of December of 1972, after being isolated for 72 days, the World found out and knew there were 16 survivors that beat Death in the Andes mountains.
Anatoli Bugorski: The Man Who Survived a Beam from a Particle Accelerator
As a researcher at the Institute for High Energy Physics in Protvino, Bugorski used to work with the largest Soviet particle accelerator, the Synchrotron U-70. On July 13, 1978, Bugorski was checking a malfunctioning piece of equipment when an accident occurred due to failed safety mechanisms. Bugorski was leaning over the piece of equipment when he stuck his head in the part through which the proton beam was running. Reportedly, he saw a flash "brighter than a thousand suns", but did not feel any pain. The beam measured about 200,000 rads when it entered Bugorski's skull, and about 300,000 rads when it exited after colliding with the inside of his head.
The left half of Bugorski's face swelled up beyond recognition, and over the next several days started peeling off, showing the path that the proton beam (moving near the speed of light) had burned through parts of his face, his bone, and the brain tissue underneath. As it was believed that about 500 to 600 rads is enough to kill a person, Bugorski was taken to a clinic in Moscow where the doctors could observe his expected demise. However, Bugorski survived and even completed his Ph.D.. There was virtually no damage to his intellectual capacity, but the fatigue of mental work increased markedly. Bugroski completely lost hearing in the left ear and only a constant, unpleasant internal noise remained. The left half of his face was frozen, due to the destruction of nerves, and does not age. He is able to function perfectly well, save the fact that he has occasional petit mal seizures and very occasional grand mal seizures.
Roy Sullivan: Struck by Lightning 7 Times
Roy Sullivan was a Virginia Forest Ranger who had an incredible attraction to lightning... or rather lightning had an attraction to him. Over his 36-year career as a ranger, Sullivan was struck by lightning seven times - and survived each jolt, but not unscathed. His seventh strike put him in the Guinness Book of World Records:
- In 1942, the first lightning strike shot through Sullivan's leg and knocked his big toenail off.
- In 1969, a second strike burned off his eyebrows and knocked him unconscious.
- In 1970, another strike left his shoulder seared.
- In 1972, his hair was set on fire and Roy had to dump a bucket of water over his head to cool off.
- On August 7, 1973, another bolt ripped through his hat and hit him on the head, set his hair on fire again, threw him out of his truck and knocked his left shoe off.
- On June 5, 1976, a sixth strike in 1976 left him with an injured ankle.
- On June 25th, 1977, the last lightning bolt to hit Roy Sullivan sent him to the hospital with chest and stomach burns in 1977.
His wife was also struck once, when a sudden storm welled up as she and her husband were out hanging wash on the back yard clothesline. On September 28, 1983, Roy Sullivan died at age 71, reportedly of a self-inflicted gunshot wound over troubles unrelated to lightning.
Joe Simpson: Conquered Siula Grande, dropped 100ft into an Ice Crevasse, crawled 3 days
Joe Simpson and Simon Yates were the first to scale the west peak of the Siula Grande, in the Peruvian Andes. Disaster struck on the way down, and Yates was forced to let a badly wounded Simpson drop 100 feet into an ice crevasse. Simpson survived the fall and spent three days crawling back to base camp.
Truman Duncan: Cut in Two by a Train
Railroad switchman Truman Duncan fell off the front of a moving train car. He was swept underneath and cut in two. Despite losing both legs and a kidney, Duncan called the paramedics on his cell phone, survived a 45-minute wait, and then persevered through 23 surgeries.
Robert Evans: Survived Being Hit by Car, Then Train Hours Later
"He got two ambulance rides last night," said the police. "It's an extreme oddity that someone is hit by a car and a train on the same night. I can't imagine that this has ever happened before in Boulder." An early morning of September 2008, 46-year-old homeless man Robert Evans had a hit-and-run car accident, and while walking back from the hospital to his camp, he was knocked off a narrow railroad bridge into a creek by a train, surviving the second accident in seven hours. Police said Evans was hit by the railing of a stairway on the side of the train. The railroad bridge is only wide enough to accommodate the train tracks and is not intended for pedestrians or other traffic.
Mauro Prosperi: Survived 9 days in the Sahara Desert
Prosperi, a keen endurance runner, took part in the 1994 Marathon des Sables (Marathon of the Sands) in Morocco. Part way through the 6-day 233 kilometre event a sandstorm caused Prosperi to lose his way. He ended up disoriented and ran in the wrong direction, ultimately running several hundred kilometres into Algeria. After 36 hours he ran out of food and water. He survived by drinking his own urine and eating bats resident in an abandoned mosque and the occasional snake found in the desert.
Not wishing to die a long drawn out death, Prosperi attempted to commit suicide in the mosque by slitting his wrists with a pen knife he had with him. The attempt failed - lack of water had caused Prosperi's blood to thicken and clotted the wound before he died.
After nine days alone in the desert he was found by a nomadic family and taken to an Algerian military camp and from there to a hospital. He was 186 miles off route, and reportedly had lost between 30 and 40 pounds (18 kg) in body weight.
Let us know... Do you believed them all or just some out of the top 10 People Who Survived the impossible odds above.

At 61-19, Johan Santana has been money in the bank in his career during the second half. The Mets will need to cash a Santana check today against the Giants to avoid being swept and perhaps falling into a free fall.
Santana gave up five hits in seven innings in beating Atlanta last Sunday to prevent a sweep in that series.
Overall, the Mets have lost six of their last seven and eight of their last ten games.
"I feel much better,'' Santana said. "Hopefully, this second half will be a strong one.''

In a rare case, a Los Angeles jury awarded $3.8 million in compensatory damages to a Porter Ranch doctor who contended insurance giant Anthem Blue Cross retaliated against him for being a strong patient advocate.
The jury ruled late Monday in favor of Jeffrey Nordella, 58, an urgent-care and family-practice doctor who alleged that Anthem barred him from its network in 2010, when he applied to be a preferred provider. The damages could climb higher Friday, when the 12-person panel reconvenes and considers punitive damages against Anthem, a unit of insurance giant WellPoint Inc.
The jury found that Anthem, the state's largest for-profit health insurer, violated Nordella's right to "fair procedure," and the company did so with "malice, oppression or fraud." That latter finding prompted the hearing Friday in Los Angeles County Superior Court to determine punitive damages.
Anthem denies Nordella's allegations and is considering an appeal.
Nordella said he was turned away because he had challenged the denial of hundreds of patient claims over the years when he was previously included in Anthem's network. He said he often protested Anthem's conclusion that care wasn't medically necessary and would not be covered. Nordella went so far as to meet with top Anthem officials in 2001.

I'm probably telling you something you already know, but just in case I'm not, or someone is new to the wiki...
There was a question on the forum about how to reference a book, website, etc. I couldn't answer there since the forum doesn't like my free email account :( Here are two examples of how to ref things. The first is a website, the second is a book.

ARLINGTON, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys may have lost more than just a football game Monday night when the Washington Redskins beat them 20-17 in overtime at AT&T Stadium.
Quarterback Tony Romo left in the third quarter with what appeared to be an injury to his surgically repaired back, though he returned in the fourth quarter.
As for the Redskins (3-5), they might have found new life. Washington quarterback Colt McCoy, a third-stringer coming into the season, started for the first time in nearly three years and engineered the upset.
McCoy did more than just keep the seat warm as the Redskins await the return of starter Robert Griffin III. McCoy passed for 299...

DOJ Helped AT&T, Others Avoid Wiretap Act, Promised Not To Charge Them If They Helped Spy On People
from the uh.... deptWant to know one reason why the feds are so interested in giving blanket immunity to anyone who helps them spy on people? Perhaps because they're already telling companies that they have immunity if they help them spy on people. Specifically, they've issued special letters of immunity, more or less helping companies like AT&T ignore the Wiretap Act.
Senior Obama administration officials have secretly authorized the interception of communications carried on portions of networks operated by AT&T and other Internet service providers, a practice that might otherwise be illegal under federal wiretapping laws.Basically, the Justice Department, at the urging of the NSA, went to various telcos and ISPs and issued secret letters which told them that if they violated the Wiretap Act, the DOJ promised them it would not prosecute. Not surprisingly, this kind of thing is not what you would generally consider legal. However, after CISPA... it would likely be more protected:
The secret legal authorization from the Justice Department originally applied to a cybersecurity pilot project in which the military monitored defense contractors' Internet links. Since then, however, the program has been expanded by President Obama to cover all critical infrastructure sectors including energy, healthcare, and finance starting June 12.
A report (PDF) published last month by the Congressional Research Service, a non-partisan arm of Congress, says the executive branch likely does not have the legal authority to authorize more widespread monitoring of communications unless Congress rewrites the law. "Such an executive action would contravene current federal laws protecting electronic communications," the report says.Apparently, the DOJ knew how problematic this was, and the CEOs of the various ISPs had indicated how worried they were about this program, but it still went forward. In secret, of course. Until now.
Because it overrides all federal and state privacy laws, including the Wiretap Act, legislation called CISPA would formally authorize the program without the government resorting to 2511 letters. In other words, if CISPA, which the U.S. House of Representatives approved last week, becomes law, any data-sharing program would be placed on a solid legal footing. AT&T, Verizon, and wireless and cable providers have all written letters endorsing CISPA.
Suddenly the emphasis on getting CISPA approved, and the attempts to frighten everyone with scare stories of what will happen without it, make a bit more sense...
