Less Information Can Improve Decisionmaking Ian Ayres
Malcolm Gladwell gave a great talk at a fundraiser for All Our Kin.
The triangle should be enlarged to include the prosecution and defense counsel. Consider the Michael Jackson trial. Let all hang out. In the blinks of the jurors' eyes, what do they see, what impresses them? Perhaps it is not the evidence but just being there, soaking in the scene. But does this result in justice?
"There is no reason in the world that the jurors need to see a non-testifying defendant."
So why have they for centuries? Generally, there is a right for the public at large to view a trial. It seems strange that the jury would be exempt from seeing the defendant. Also, a defendant blocked from view is suspicious. The jury wants to see who they are trying. This surely is a major reason why centuries of practice saw "some" reason for the jury seeing the defendant. Finally, I'm not clear if more lawyers are crying for this right. If they did, I'd think would not make a big push for the defendant to be there. Does the defendant really help them much as they examine and cross?
Interesting post. Your focus on anonymity is important, but I think we could go further by taking a broader view of the word "information" in the sentence "less information can lead to better decisionmaking."
We get less information not only when we restrict our perceptions (such as by blocking the jury's view of the defendant), but more generally whenever we gain no additional insight or learn anything new from some perception. For instance, if all defendants have to wear the same exact outfit and that is explained to the jury, then the outfit worn by a defendant will carry no information - and thus presumably should have the benefits to decisionmaking that Gladwell discusses. Adam http://aneufeld.blogspot.com
One of the most commonly sited defenses of the on ban hearsay is that the jury can rely on demeanor evidence to helpfully evaluate whether or not a witness is 1) lying or 2) sincerely testifying, but incompetent. This is the point of Laurence Tribe 's triangle diagram of what constitutes hearsay.
However, several studies have questioned the value of demeanor evidence. One set of these studies suggests that people are better at detecting whether a witness is lying when they read a transcript of cross-examination, than when they witness it in person. Another set of studies suggest that demeanor evidence of no value when the witness is sincerely testifying but mistakenly as to their testimony. While it might be the case that "Gladwell is clearly right that there is no reason why jury should see defendant," but it might also be the case there is no reason the jury should see the witnesses. [See Olin Guy Willborn, 76 Cornell Law Review 1075, for a basic overview of the literature. The studies Willborn sites are old, but not necessarily outdated. Additionally more recent studies have been conducted on the same subject, correcting for some of the flaws in the earlier studies and reaching the same conclusion. I don't have a citation at the tip of my fingers, but I'm sure they could be easily found on lexis or westlaw.]

(WENN) - Katy Perry, Jennifer Hudson, Stevie Wonder and Bon Jovi hit the stage to perform for President Barack Obama in Los Angeles on Sunday night.
Earth, Wind & Fire also played at the 30 Days to Victory concert at the Nokia Theater to pull in last-minute donations for Obama's campaign, ahead of the U.S. elections next month.
Obama was the guest of honor at the sold-out event, where actor George Clooney also made a special appearance to introduce Wonder.
Perry took to Twitter.com to show off her patriotic manicure, featuring the President's face, writing:
Today I am so honored to play for the President! ☑ — Katy Perry (@katyperry) October 7, 2012
Today I am so honored to play for the President! ☑

After the show, Obama headed next door to Wolfgang Puck's chic WP24 for an exclusive dinner where VIP guests paid $25,000 per plate.
It is estimated the two events pulled in as much as $5 million for Obama.

How many illegal alien and other non-citizen voters should be able to vote in Florida in the 2012 election? The State of Florida has taken a "zero tolerance" approach to this question while the Obama Justice Department seems to be saying "the more the merrier!"
This confrontation has led to a critical showdown in a major swing state just five months before Election Day 2012.
It all began a couple of weeks ago, when Florida election officials began doing what the law requires, attempting to clean its voter rolls of ineligible voters. Importantly, Florida took action only after Judicial Watch sent a letter to the Florida's two top election officials requesting information about Florida's voting list maintenance procedures. The state's response to our letter of inquiry disclosed to us the massive number of dead voters on the rolls and a promise to remove them. You can view our letter to Florida here and the state's response here.
(Our efforts in Florida are part of Judicial Watch's 2012 Election Integrity Project. We're targeting states with the dirtiest voter registration rolls and threatening to sue if they don't fix the problem. Our legal team is right now preparing lawsuits against three states. And we are considering our options in several other states.)
Now, Florida did not begin wiping people off lists randomly. Officials simply began notifying individuals on the list they believed may be ineligible and asked them to prove otherwise.
The Obama Justice Department, which seemingly has initiated a systematic effort to make sure voter rolls remain dirty, objected to this initiative. On May 31, 2012, T. Christian Herren, Chief of the Voting Section of the DOJ's Civil Rights Division,wrote a letter to Florida officials ordering a halt to the voting roll list maintenance process.
In an excellent piece for The National Review, Hans Von Spakovksy puts this unprecedented move by Justice in perspective: "This goes far beyond Holder's previous actions, such as belittling claims of voter fraud and trying to stop voter ID and other reform measures intended to improve the integrity of the election process. This letter would directly abet vote thieves in a key state as Holder's boss seeks re-election this November."
Hans further points out that Florida is directed by federal law to undertake such a review of voter registration laws and that it is a felony punishable up to three years in prison to make a false claim of citizenship in order to register to vote!
So why is the Justice Department attacking Florida for following federal law? Why indeed?
The Justice Department's letter demanded a response by Wednesday of this week. The Justice Department got a response alright, but not the one they wanted.
As reported by Reuter's:
"The Florida Department of State has a solemn obligation to ensure the integrity of elections in this state," said Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner in a letter to the Justice Department.
"Permitting ineligible, non-citizen voters to cast ballots undermines that mission and erodes the justified faith the electorate has in the fairness and reliability of the electoral process," he added.
So the clean-up will continue! (As will the Justice Department's legal attack on Florida, I'm sure.) You can review the Florida's official response to the Obama Justice Department intimidation tactics here. And here's a Q&A sheet presented by the Florida State Department that details the state's position on the illegal voter purge.
The Justice Department "line" is that Florida's efforts to clean up voter registration lists of non-citizen voters might disenfranchise minority voters. But that is a ridiculous argument that is merely intended to obscure the outright fraud taking place across the country.
In the State of Florida, for example, a state that once decided a presidential election by 537 votes, the Florida examination has already identified 2,700 non-citizens registered to vote – so far. (Press reports suggest this number could be as high as 180,000.)
And this problem is certainly not limited to Florida.
As The Washington Times noted this week:
These include inaccurate or duplicate records, people registered in two or more states and almost 2 million voters who are on the books even though they are deceased. The number of bad registrations is daunting; 24 million is larger than the winning margins of the last five presidential races combined. If the 2012 race is close, the potential impact of fraudulent votes is magnified.
"Could illegal voting decide the next presidential election?" the Washington Times editorial asks. "Steps are being taken by the Justice Department that may help guarantee it."
In addition to its showdown with the Obama Justice Department, the State of Florida recently lost a battle in court against the Obama campaign over a series of voter integrity initiatives it had planned to implement. According to The Washington Post:
…Hinkle blocked Florida from enforcing parts of its new voting law, including provisions that require groups that collect voter registration forms to return them to state officials within 48 hours. The provisions also mandate that all volunteer workers must file sworn statements saying they will obey state laws in registering voters.
I believe the ACLU and Project Vote have been pulling the strings behind the scenes at the Justice Department over these issues. (For example, see this June 20, 2011 letter signed by representatives of both organizations complaining to the Justice Department about Florida's election integrity law. As we note in our first article above, we already know that Project Vote and the ACLU each have an "in" with leftists running Obama's Justice.)
As you well know, Judicial Watch has devised a comprehensive strategy to counter the Obama machine's scheme to steal the election. We call it our 2012 Election Integrity Campaign. You can read all about this effort here. And if you agree with me that this is one of the most important battles in Judicial Watch's 17-year history, I hope you'll consider making a tax-deductible contribution to make sure we have the resources to confront the Obama gang's scheme on every front.
Judicial Watch does not support or oppose candidates for public office. We do, however, want to make sure that the election is fair and clean. I hope you'll consider joining this effort.

Child poverty and its causes will be one of the main focuses of the conference. Nearly 15 million children in the United States, or 21 percent of all children, live in families below the federal poverty level, according to the National Center for Children in Poverty (NCCP). A study from the NCCP found Cincinnati has the third-worst children's poverty rate at 48 percent. Only Detroit and Cleveland were worse, with 53.6 percent and 52.6 percent, respectively.
"We're going to look at all the range of policies and practices and the impact of those and what we can do," CDF President Marian Wright told WVXU today. "It's going to be a real teach-in on what we must do to move forward and stop the move backwards, which I think we're in the midst of."
The conference will also look at education issues. It seeks to shine light on the issue of the achievement gap between the poor and non-poor and racial disparities. A 2011 analysis by the National Center for Education Statistics found black and Hispanic students are behind their white peers by 20 test-points in math and reading tests provided by the National Assessment of Educational Progress. The difference equates to about two grade levels.
The conference will also look at child health care services, zero-tolerance discipline policies in schools and tools and programs that can be used to improve the lives of struggling children.
Anyone is free to register at CDF's website to join the conference. Experts, doctors and activists will also be there.
An anti-abortion group is defending the claims it makes on billboards criticizing Congressman Steve Driehaus (D-Price Hill), but comments from a prominent Catholic bishop appears to support Driehaus' stance.
There are protesters who have been standing outside of a pediatrician's office almost daily since at least the summer. Why? Someone else in that same tiny complex is offering abortions. A woman who has taken her special needs daughter to that pediatrician's office for more than 20 years was recently told by her minister's wife that she needed to switch pediatricians. Abortion is "murder," of course, so going anywhere near the "scene of the crime" must make her a co-conspirator.
On the opposite side of town is a Catholic organization made up of young people who were praying the rosary daily in hopes of a veto on the law that required Catholic employers to provide health care that included birth control coverage. Furthering their attack on small families are two Republican candidates for president. Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney seem to want to reverse the bill that legalized the sale of contraception.
Yes, the Bible says "Be fruitful." The Bible also says to take care of children. Statistics from UNICEF report that in 2009 roughly 2.1 million children are currently orphaned in America. Who is taking care of them? Should anyone be so adamantly against birth control when they're also clearly unwilling to help take care of the result from a lack of birth control?
Before abortion was legalized, women were forced to take to back alleys in order to end unwanted pregnancies. Those terminations consisted of the use of things like scalding water or hangers. Many women contracted infections from those unsterile and unsafe methods. Too many women died from those infections. Why wasn't anyone looking out for them?
Many of the comments we've received at CityBeat in response to coverage of these issues have focused on the sinfulness of abortion and birth control (and, of course, homosexuality). Why are they overlooking all the other "sins" the bible suggests?
Click the jump for a list of all the crazy things the Old Testament says are also sins.
As Cincinnati Archbishop Dennis Schnurr and other Catholic officials speak out publicly against a new federal rule involving free birth control, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) defends the switch and says the criticism is misguided.
Last month the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act — known informally as "ObamaCare" — would require nearly universal coverage of contraception.
As part of CityBeat's continuing election coverage, we've once again sent a questionnaire to the non-incumbent Cincinnati City Council candidates to get their reactions on a broad range of issues.
Nine of the 14 non-incumbents chose to answer our questions. Others either didn't respond or couldn't meet the deadline.
During the next few weeks, we will print the responses from the non-incumbents to a different topic each time.
Today's question is, "Do you consider the operation of health clinics to be an acceptable function of municipal government?"
People who want to apply for the state of Ohio's new high-risk medical insurance pool can get free help at two upcoming events.
As part of recent health-care reforms, the state launched the high-risk insurance pool Aug. 1. The program is designed to offer affordable coverage to individuals who have been denied coverage in the past because of pre-existing medical conditions.
Because it can take years after exposure for symptoms to develop, many people who are infected with the virus that causes AIDS don't even realize it. More than one million people in the United States are estimated to be living with HIV, and approximately one in five people with HIV are unaware they're infected, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
A major effort is underway today to urge Congressman Steve Chabot (R-Westwood) to buck his GOP colleagues and vote against repealing the health-care reform law.
A national group, Catholics United, is placing about 6,000 telephone calls to Catholics who live in Ohio's 1st Congressional District, that contains a recorded message asking them to have Chabot vote "no" on repealing health-care reform. The GOP leadership is expected to bring up the repeal bill, H.R. 2, on Wednesday for a vote by the U.S. House of Representatives.

The city of Auburn is wrapping up a two year multi-phase water line replacement project that has allowed for better pressure in certain areas of the city and and the looping of dead end water lines.
The city received over $800,000 in 2010 by way of a Rural Development grant and a low interest loan from the USDA. The project called for replacing old lines on Peterson Avenue as part of phase one of the project. Phase two of the project was to replacing lines and hydrants and tying up dead end lines on Walnut, College and Short Maple Streets. Other areas affected were Watkins, Rogers, Sunset, and Circle Streets.
Some of these lines have been in the ground for years and years and have been leaking a little bit and needed to be replaced. This project was something they city has needed for several years. The lines were in bad need of replacement. The city hoped by rerouting some of the lines, it would supply decent pressure to certain areas.
The project also paid for an inspection and repainting of the city's water tower by a company called Horizon. The tank painting was done the end of last year and was part of the second phase. The tank has a new design, which includes a light blue background and an American flag.

45 45s AT 45 : NUMBER 18
In 1981, The Specials released Ghost Town, a song that was completely unlike any other that had ever emerged from the ska movement. It bulleted up the charts and spent a number of weeks at #1. In retrospect, it has been called the most prophetic of songs ever to be a chart-topper, and there's all sorts of great pieces of writing all over the internet about how politically significant it all was.
But…….I'm sorry to say, and this may be seen as a piece of heresy, but my love for the song is solely related to the tune and the great vocal performances...
However, that shouldn't be taken as meaning that I wasn't aware of the political stooshie that Ghost Town was causing. I was growing up fast in 1981, just about to leave school and go off to University. I had a comfortable and very pleasant upbringing, but I was from an area where I had friends who should have come with me to university, but were in circumstances where they had instead to take on a job to in banking or with the civil service to help support their parents, one or both of whom were out-of-work. Poverty and deprivation weren't alien concepts to me.
There is no other way to put it - Ghost Town is a savage attack on the state of British society at the outset of the 80s. The Tories under Margaret Thatcher had come to power in 1979 thanks in part to a famous main campaigning slogan of 'Labour Isn't Working' with a poster that showed a huge crowd of people waiting to get into the unemployment office and sign-on.
Two years on, the situation was even worse – unemployment rates had almost doubled across the country. In some areas, particularly where there was a high concentration of young ethnic minorities, as many as 8 out of 10 folk weren't in employment.
Throw in the rise of the fascist far-right in the shape of the National Front who were blaming non-whites for the state of the nation and a police force that was being given more and more stop-and-search powers by a government determined to appear as the party of law-and-order, then the ingredients were there for something to kick-off.
The people were getting angry.
So angry in fact that in April 1981, something happened that was totally alien in the UK. There was a riot in the streets.
It happened in Brixton in London, and it began as the reaction of a crowd to what they saw was the racial arrest of a local youth(something that was subsequently proven to be true).
The trouble escalated over a 48-hour period before being brought under control. For the first time that I could recall, pictures of police and civilains fighting toe-to-toe in the streets were shown on television, along with images of what seemed to be a whole neighbourhood on fire. And it really did look as if there was going to be some sort of major uprising, but within two or three days, the police had regained order.
Two months later, Ghost Town was released as a single.
But the song wasn't just a reaction to what had happened in Brixton - in fact it had been written and recorded before the April riot. But to some it seemed to act as a rallying call, for within weeks of its release, as it climbed its way up the charts, there were more riots on the streets.
This time it was Toxteth in Liverpool that was initially in the spotlight. Again, it was initially a reaction to tensions between the police and disaffected black youths, and similar scenes of carnage were beamed live into our homes courtesy of the TV (and all this in the days before we had 24-hour news channels). Toxteth was on a larger scale than Brixton and before long, other riots broke out, the largest being in Handsworth in Birmingham, as well as in many other towns and cities across England.
My recollection is that it took about a week to get things back to normal.
Living in Scotland, I had a feeling of being sheltered from all of this trouble. It may have been Liverpool, Birmingham, London and so on, but it felt as if it was as far away as Detroit, Chicago or Los Angeles.
There was no rioting in Glasgow. Nor was there ever any threat of rioting in Glasgow, despite the unemployment problems being every bit as bad here as anywhere else. What I believe was crucially absent at the time, was a disaffected ethnic minority in my home city that was prepared to take to the streets in protest. I'm not going to make any absurd claim about racism not being an issue in Glasgow in 1981, but it certainly was nowhere near as big a problem as it was in the inner-cities south of the border. Oh and its fair to say, that policing methods were slightly different as well...
The fact I was physically separated from the trouble and violence is why I never, at the time, made the connection between Ghost Town and what was happening in many parts of the country. It was only in the cold light of day a short while later, when the music papers in particular made the connection that the little light bulb went on above my head.
To lots of people, this song will always be associated with events that briefly threatened the very fabric of British society. To this humble scribe, its just a great song.
Yet another 7" that bit the dust twenty-odd years ago, so you'll have to make do with a CD copy (mind you, it is the 12" extended version) and one of the two b-sides which features probably my favourite ever Terry Hall vocal.

Two of The Specials' best songs, if you ask me. A great A/B-side combo.

Ghost Town is without doubt one of the great UK number ones, and a good shout of being the very best, due to the times in which it rose to the top.
That said I've never considered it particularly prescient but it is magnificent and in the end that's really all that matters.

Great Post!
My musical tastes took a turn for the better when I discovered side 2 of "More Specials" It was the muzak stuff that I thought was the coolest sound ever. Then, when Ghost Town came out (Being a lad from NY, I had no idea what the song was about) it was so bummed to discover it was their swang song.
As great as Terry Hall's vocals were, Jerry Dammers was the genius. Check out the "Absolute Beginners" soundtrack to hear the only solo Dammers song ever released publicly. - 5:19 am, April 30, 2008

How is that song just a b-side? How? Why? There are bands who would kill to have a song as strong as that, as their biggest song ever even. Pah, The Specials: we've never had it so good...

I do hope that if we're to put up with the return of high inflation, soaring energy costs, economic meltdown and the Far Right on our streets then we can expect some music as good as this, but I very much doubt it.

I'm avidly following your blog from here in exile. But one small points: the riots that year all started in St. Paul's, in Bristol. The police went mob-handed into a cafe to arrest someone for something trivial. Resentment had been simmering for a while. That day, it was light the blue touchpaper and retire...

Hi anon...
I did a fair bit of reading in advance of putting this post together, and as far as I can find, Brixton riots were in April 81, Toxteth etc in June 81 and St Pauls in December 81.
I do know however, there had been riots in Bristol the previous year in 1980...
In retrospect, I should have mentioned the 1980 event in the posting.... - 11:03 pm, April 30, 2008
Hi JC... I don't like posting as anonymous, but I've forgotten my bloody password. Old age and general decrepitude, I fear.
Anyway, I remember St. Paul's clearly. I was in Bristol at the time, working on a local newspaper. We, ahem, missed it! Long story, and best shared over a pint, but suffice it to say that it was the most embarrassing moment of my career.
The trouble began on the evening of April 2, 1980, when the rozzers burst into the the Black and White Cafe. When I heard about it on the news the next morning, I was praying it was another Bristol, like, maybe, a district in Detroit. No such luck.
Keep up the great work, pal. And best regards from Florida.

Ford usually fires candidates today......during a nice lunch. Look for an announcement around 2pm today.
Lions always lose out on a couple of candidates because of their slow process. Lovie will interview for at least a week before being hired. If knucklehead is let go...Lovie will visit the Lions.
All they did was review Schwartz. Where he got a terse tongue lashing from Ford while he was on his death bed. Then they fired several insignificant coaches RB, WR and Oline. I think the Oline was a mistake !
Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz does not blame GM Martin Mayhew for losing season | MLive.com A couple of assistants will not be returning, Sam Gash and Shawn Stevens. But you have to wonder if anybody else above assistance will be the fall guy.
I blame Lomas for doing this.......for punishment, I'll show this collection of our 7 time pro-bowler..........against Lawrence Taylor.

Gracetalk Etiquette
A few Helpful "Gracetalk" Etiquette Tips
- Keep your note focused and succinct. We hope to share discussion, not suffer it. Maximum file size is 40k.
- Send Personal Comments (thanks, questions, greetings, etc.) to an individual's personal e-mail account. The address can be read from the e-mail headers.
- Do not quote lengthy messages to which you are replying — quote only the essential part. Remember, maximum size is 40k.
- Send questions about LIST problems to the Moderators' mailbox not to the general readership.
- Keep in mind that attachments should not be sent to the list. Remember again, maximum file size is 40k. They may crash the server, and/or cost the host for expensive server reconfiguration. This list is still mostly a volunteer effort.
- Address mail to Gracetalk directly. Do not send cc: to Gracetalk as tenth or fifteenth recipient. The Gracetalk list server can not accept long recipient lists.
- Remember to send vanilla text e-mail. Microsoft Email Clients, make sure you do not use RTF. Netscape Email Clients users and Microsoft Email Clients make sure you do not use html. Everyone, please do not use vcard signatures, or any other fancy e-mail add-ons. These tend to produce garbage for most of the other list users. (If you get a short three line message followed by 20 pages of computer gibberish, you probably just suffered someone's inattention to this detail.)
- Let's be gracious with the computer incompatibilities we will encounter.
- Important: Send compliments to the list, send complaints via private e-mail.
- It is inappropriate to send chain letters through Gracetalk. Gracetalk is not meant to be a guilt inducer, but a tool for conversation. We hope Gracetalk is a helpful tool for our communications within the Southwestern Washington Synod.

I'm new to SL but I've seen a few tutorials so I know how to do stuff it's just my setup giving me problems.
I had a few MIDI bindings mapped and it's the next and previous track that is causing problems. I've tried assigning them to nanopad2 pads and mpk mini pads but if I press a pad once it skips a few tracks instead of just going to the next one. I try pressing the pad lightly and holding it down. Both sets of pads aren't the most responsive in the world but not once have I managed to only skip to the next track and I've been trying for a while.
I've also tried using the caps lock keyboard set up in the same way but it's greyed out even when I click on it.
Many thanks for any help in advance!

A Splash of Joy
Monday, October 24, 2011
Suzy's a plain Jane when it comes to her coffee, just a splash of milk please. She's never been a fan of flavored creamers but she caved to this delectable treat and there may be no turning back!
Almond Joy International Delight is a the perfect antidote to Suzy's mid afternoon sweet tooth.

Let the Lava (and Beer) Flow
To make its unique machine for the Google Science Fair, Syyn Labs constructed a bunch of typical science fair experiments, then made them interact with each other in a playful chain. Even if you watch the video multiple times, you still might miss exactly what's happening. So here's the breakdown, from the opening hamster-powered wheel to the big finale, a world map with glowing volcano eruptions.
Making of the Rube Goldberg machine
As usual, Syyn worked on the machine right up until deadline. "We were here at three in the morning and back at six," says Bushnell. When filming ended at 7 p.m., the Syyn gang celebrated with a bonfire and beer. "We had a nice party in the parking lot that went into the wee hours."

Timing, creativity and anticipation are some of the hallmarks of a good photojournalist. All the photographs presented in our annual 2010 year in review exhibit some, if not all, of these qualities.
Photojournalists do have a unique opportunity to present pictures that help us better understand our community and offer distinctive and unusual subtleties. The goal is always to inform in a fair way, but the hope is to capture something different that extends our understanding beyond what words can.

The South Coast Rail project will restore passenger rail transportation from South Station in Boston to the South Coast of Massachusetts, catalyzing nearly half a billion dollars in economic development every year. The cities of Taunton, Fall River and New Bedford are the only cities within 50 miles of Boston that are not served by commuter rail. South Coast Rail will provide a new, convenient travel option that will be cheaper than driving. We expect the project will also bring other benefits, too:

Jeg vil gerne have en pølse med brød! Roskilde! This may be the largest annual European music festival, and this year's lineup featured Radiohead, Beck, David Byrne, Pavement, Primus, and Phish. That's a hell of a lineup -- Radiohead and Phish being worth the price of admission alone (though at this point in time Radiohead hadn't broadened their repertoire to the point it is now). YEM opener is very good, as is Taste -- this is the 8th in 11 shows this tour, and signals the impending Theme later in the set. BAtR / BoMD are "whatev" as they say, Chalkdust is standard, Theme is typically great, and Zer0 is Zer0. My Soul'd and we're on the way to Amsterdam. There's not enough here to be super stoked, though the first YEM of tour (a solid one taboot), and another excellent Taste / Theme pairing compel me to leave this one with 3 stars. It's nice playing in a suboptimal setting. Up next, AMSTERDAM!

Evanston resident leads GBN choirs
Updated: December 12, 2012 9:12AM
An Evanston resident of 15 years, Chad Davidson, instructional supervisor for fine arts at Glenbrook North High School, finds his work commute a capsule. There he can listen to his favorite music or recordings by the choirs he directs. He and his wife Laurie are the parents of Jack, 8, a third-grader at Lincolnwood Elementary School.
Q. Chad, what makes Evanston family friendly?
A. Evanston is a great place to live because it combines the best of the suburbs and the city. There are great shops and restaurants, cultural events, and a vibrant downtown.
Q. Where did you grow up?
A. I grew up on the South Side of Chicago, in Hyde Park. The similarities between Hyde Park and Evanston are many, and I'm sure that is a big part of the reason that I like it so much in Evanston.
Q. Talk about your position at GBN.
A. I began my career at GBN as the choir director. I taught seven choirs, was the vocal director for our variety show, and was the vocal director for our district musical. Now, I am the instructional supervisor for fine arts. This means that I oversee the areas of music, visual art, theatre, and broadcasting. In addition, I still teach four choirs and continue to serve as the music director for our musicals. Our past two productions have been Rent and The Phantom of the Opera.
Q. What are the choirs you direct?
A. I teach two choirs during the school day, and then I have two extra-curricular ensembles, GBN Express and The Men of GBN. Express is a mixed ensemble of 10th- through 12th-graders who perform a variety of music ranging from classical to pop, Broadway to holiday. Our busiest season of the year is during the winter holidays. We'll perform 17 concerts during the month of December. The Men of GBN is a group of men in the Northbrook community ... some dads, alums, friends and neighbors. We rehearse once a week at GBN, and I'm sure that we have more fun than any other group in our school.
Q. What are your hobbies?
A. I am very active in running and triathlon. I've run the Chicago Marathon for the past three years (the last two as a member of the Lurie Children's Hospital Marathon Team) and have competed in over 20 triathlons. I am really excited to compete in my first Ironman Triathlon next September in Madison, Wis.
Q. Talk about your family.
A. My wife Laurie is a fundraiser for Northwestern University. We met (don't ask how long ago) when we were both in a production with the Light Opera Works company. I always say that, although I'm a professional musician, I'm still only the second best singer in my house.
Q. So where did you go to school?
A. I began my undergraduate education at Northwestern, but I transferred after my sophomore year to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro where I earned my Bachelor of music degree in music education. I also have a master's degree in choral conducting from The Ohio State University.
Q. What's on your iPod?
A. My iPod playlist is definitely eclectic. My favorite playlist — creatively titled "Stuff I Like — has everything on it from Taylor Swift to Kanye West, and almost everything in between. And, as a child of the 1980s, I have to admit that more than a few songs from that decade still get a lot of play.

Have you had the "talk" with your teen yet? No not that talk. With prom season here and graduation just around the corner, opening up and maintaining a dialogue with your teen about driving is critical. That's because May marks what USA Today reporter Larry Copeland calls "the beginning of the season of high peril" and AAA dubs "The 100 Deadliest Days" for teen drivers.
In New Jersey, crash data show that May, June and July are the deadliest months for teen drivers. So when your teen says he's going to the prom, don't just ask with whom, expand your query to include how he plans to get there and what's on the agenda after the DJ spins the last record. While no teen sets out on prom night or any day of the week for that matter intent on crashing, it happens all too
frequently -- every ten minutes in New Jersey, with 11 teens dying nationwide every day. Teens, however, who have parents who talk with them about safe driving not just once, but on a regular basis, are less likely to engage in risky behavior and more likely to return home safely after the prom and each and every day.
What should you talk about? Why not use New Jersey's Graduated Driver License or GDL as your guide -- it's the most effective tool parents have for addressing teen driver crash risk. Since the GDL program took effect in our state more than a decade ago, the number of teen drivers and teen passengers driven by their peers who have died in car crashes has dropped to a record low. Under the GDL, teens who are newly licensed (they're probationary drivers), may only carry one passenger and must be off the road between 11:01 p.m. and 5 a.m. Both provisions are critical since a novice driver's chances of being killed in a crash increase by 50 percent when he has a friend in the car. As for driving at night, more than 40 percent of fatal teen crashes occur after 9 p.m. Parents who enforce these restrictions may get the eye roll, the defiant stare or the "you're so mean" response from their teen, but hold your ground especially on prom night when you may be more likely to bend the rules. Why? According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, 48 teens are killed and another 5,202 injured in car crashes during a typical prom weekend.
In addition to leveraging the GDL, make sure you understand what's likely to trip up your teen driver. While most parents point to alcohol, here in New Jersey and in just about every other state it's distraction and inattention, speeding and other driver errors that cause teens to crash. Alcohol, which parents often point to, is way down on the list of causation factors. I'm not saying teens don't drink, but when it comes to drinking and driving they recognize the danger (we can thank the DARE program and the work of MADD for that). But don't eliminate alcohol from the list of topics you discuss with your teen driver. Parent disapproval, according to SADD (Students Against Destructive Decisions), is the number one reason why teens choose not to drink.
If your teen is planning to attend an after prom party, talk to the adults who be there to discuss what refreshments will be served, the sleeping arrangements (if teens will be spending the night) and transportation, particularly if there are teens who are fully licensed. Even if your teen no longer holds a probationary license (he must be at least 18 and held a probationary license for at least 12 months), driving late at night is risky and teens 18-20 years of age are still novices behind the wheel. Teens are responsible for 25 percent of drowsy driving crashes so on prom night, when they're likely to be tired, remind them that driving on just a few hours of sleep is just as dangerous as driving drunk.
Also talk with your teen about how to deal with uncomfortable or unsafe situations. If his ride home is a teen who is tired or consumed alcohol, for example, getting in the car is the last thing you want him to do. Help your teen develop a strategy that includes calling you for a ride home. If that does happen, limit the conversation to just a simple "I'm glad you called" and hold the 20 questions until both you and your teen have had a good night's sleep.
The bottom line here is that talking with your teen -- remember it's a dialogue which means both parties contribute to the conversation -- does matter and works. Call it the car crash "anti-drug." So start talking and don't stop even after your teen is an adult, on his own and out of your house. Despite being old enough to quality for an AARP card, I still get the "be careful driving and call me when you get home" reminder when I visit my mom. I appreciate and understand her concern, especially now that my only child is 16 and learning to drive. And yes, I'm talking with him about driving -- eye rolls and all.

Two technologies are poised to impact the world of driving a LOT, a lot sooner than we think. I think the highway in 2022 will look a LOT different than they do today in 2012.
Its less important for teens to drive now than it used to be. Many college students now don't drive either.
Americans use four times as much energy per capita than the Japanese, who are #2. So we could cut back a LOT without much pain.

I think it'll be a while longer than 10 years for commercially available autonomous cars. Have you ever watched any documentaries on the various DARPA challenges? It's probably luck as much as engineering that gets the winning vehicle across the line.
Also, based on goofy things that they do with the management software in cars today, I wouldn't be so interested in having them control the movement of my car.
Last year they installed a software update to fix a problem with the windows in my BMW and it screwed up a safety feature involving the car's mobility. The fixed that and now it tells me to put the key in after the car's already started and to remove the key when the car is off and I'm halfway out.
I rely on computer systems to make my living, but I won't rely them to drive my car for me, at least not any time soon.

If, according to the article, there's a crash every ten minutes in NJ, I'm moving to North Dakota.
Pam Fischer

That's the problem with living in such a densely populated state with highly mobile teens. As for moving to North Dakota, I'd rethink that -- teens may obtain a permit at 14 and a driver's license at 15!

At least you can pump your own gas in ND. It's also one of the state where it's still legal to carry firearms in a gun rack.
3:19 pm on Sunday, May 27, 2012
Smart, smart, smart, Ms. Fischer! Thank you for this thoughtful article. Your advocacy heightens awareness of the very real dangers of driving for everyone and especially teens. Such advocacy has already saved the lives of literally hundreds of thousands, if not millions of Americans since the automobile became our way of life. Your emphasis on distraction while driving, not just inebriation, is critical to lowering those heinous death rates even further. I often wonder how many have died from playing with the radio or fumbling with a cigarette or because of engagement with a passenger. Thank you!

To be completely honest,
after years of experimenting and baking,
I haven't figured out the best recipe for banana bread.
I often forget the most important ingredients, and other times just pray that no one else can taste the bland, flour-y consistency that I vowed to never replicate again..
(Even chocolate chips can't help you there.)
What gives me more joy than perfecting the recipe, though, is breaking the bread with others. It seems so simple: mix ingredients, put it in oven, out comes bread.
But that delight you see in people sharing it together? Unparalleled.
Bread fulfills hunger—physical, spiritual, relational.

The Hecox Sketch tee from Lakai features an Evan Hecox Sketch design across the front chest. It is available in Black only and is in our opinion a regular fit.
Basted out of Torrance, California, Lakai started life back in 1999 when fellow Girl team skaters and co-owners Mike Carroll and Rick Howard felt that the could make a contribution to the skate shoe world. Lakai released its first video in 2002 called "Beware of the Flare" which was mainly made up for footage from the Lakai tours and their first full length feature film "Fully Flared" was put out in 2007. Lakai's Fully Flared went on to win the Best Video Award from The Skateboard Mag and Transworlds Best Video Award.

Journal: Where Rationalists Became Irrational 4
It isn't the fault of the New Atheists- they don't know enough history to know where they went wrong. Mainly because it happened a hundred years before they were born.
It isn't the fault of the New Atheists- they don't know enough history to know where they went wrong. Mainly because it happened a hundred years before they were born.
Suggest that free will exists and will never be able to be duplicated in an artificial intelligence. 69 replies to my sub-thread.
"We do not want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population." - Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, 1939
"God bless you" - President Obama to Planned Parenthood, 2013
Order is the first need of human beings, the only thing that makes life remotely tolerable. Mankind will give up just about anything to get it- freedom, money, family. Better a slave in Athens than a king in Africa!
What changed all that was religion. Religion is the anti-government. Only a moral people can be ruled with few laws; and now that we've abandoned morality to relativism, we need to increase the number of laws and number of prisoners to keep order.
So true libertarians need to be religious- for only with religion, can there be order without laws and punishment.
The arguments I've gotten from atheists in my journal remind me of the atheist pessimist in this sketch. Because there is far more to life than just denying authority.
In our unregulated abortion industry horror is abundant. But that fits with the anti-motherhood crowd for whom human beings are just pests that need to be wiped out.
After a recent car accident, and faced with higher fuel bills and a real phobia about buying new vehicles, I've broken down and done the most gay thing I've ever done in my life.
I bought a 2006 Prius. Used. For a thousand less than blue book.
And now I'm learning to drive all over again.
Things I've learned about driving a Japanese Parallel Hybrid (hate the "Synergy Drive" transmission on this thing):
If the car dies and you can't jump it, check the el-cheapo battery connectors that might have fallen off (Seriously- the prius spent 24 hours in my garage this week because I couldn't boot the computer- and it turned out to be the freakin' 12V battery connector fell off).
This hybrid is the worst of both worlds, it gets its best gas mileage under 25MPH accelerating very slowly or between 45 and 60MPH. Anything in b8etween sucks rocks. That means in city driving, I'm the slowest car on the road, and for entering the freeway, I'm the fastest car trying to get up to speed so I can put it in cruise control.
Light on the gas is best, except when it isn't- and it isn't whenever the speed limit exceeds 45. Then it is best to floor it until you hit the speed limit, and use cruise control. This sucks in traffic.
There is no physical neutral on the synergy drive. If your electronics die and you can't boot the computer, you can't shift to neutral to get the car out of the garage.
Likewise, the back trunk- where the batteries are- only has an electronic latch on the outside. If the battery is dead, you have to get your kid to crawl into the back seat, fold down the seats, crawl into the trunk, empty the trunk, remove the carpet, remove the floor, pull a rectangle piece of plastic out of the toolbox, feel around until he finds the latch with his hand, and then you can open the trunk. THEN you have to remove the toolbox, take out a body panel, and then you'll find the battery.
Despite all of that- I'm getting 45MPG in town- better than my manual Escort ever did. 51 highway- about the same as the manual escort. But it's a way more complex car that I do not entirely understand yet.
Maybe one day I'll add a better HV battery and charger and the EV mode button, then I'll have a car almost as decent as the Ford C-Max. Or, if I end up doing what I did with the Escort, in 10 years when the Prius dies on me the Ford C-Max will be available in the used market in the under $7000 range- and that may well be better.
A conversation with a much more left wing friend over the weekend made me realize that most of my conservative politics, are not conservatively sourced. They are sourced in my own personal form of liberalism, which is often repelled by the political rhetoric of other liberals.
Gay marriage for instance. I was once, a decade or so ago, for civil unions. I was considered a liberal for being so. I reveled in the fact of being Catholic and how entire groups of monks were using their own vow of celibacy to volunteer for AIDS research. Then, overnight it seemed, in March 2004 I became a conservative on this subject. I didn't change- but I was now bigoted for actually believing sacramental marriage was still possible and that children raised by their biological parents might actually be the ideal situation. Oh, and of course, for discriminating against gays and not allowing them to get married.
Gay marriage doesn't matter to me anymore. After all the attacks and vandalism, I wouldn't vote for those people if they were trying to save baby whales.
But back to my own attitudes. Abortion, Divorce, Contraception, Homosexuality, Fractional Reserve Banking, Free Trade, Wage Suppression, euthanasia. I see these all as full of violence and hatred; and against human dignity. But worse than any of them, are the tactics used to shame more normal people into allowing them to continue; the intolerance of the supposedly tolerant. Tolerance is only a virtue if the thing you are being tolerant of is a sin; when that thing ceases to be a sin and becomes instead a model, tolerance quickly turns to enabling and intolerance for those who don't fit that model.
Think Philadelphia is the only city where they don't inspect abortion clinics enough to keep their victims from dying? Here are a few others from around the country- including a few Planned Parenthood clinics.
It's amazing what a man can see by the light of a burning bridge.
I've often laughed at The slippery slope argument, but hearing on the news this morning about a significant group of psychiatrists who want to remove pedophila from the DSM (like they did 40 years ago with homosexuality) I now have to admit that political slippery slopes are real- and proven by 40 years of experimentation.
It is truly amazing what a man can see by the light of a burning bridge.
Money and sex kills children.
A great example of what this means, of the type of Cardinal Reinhard Marx.
So instead, I'm posting this link here:
This is the story NOBODY IN THE MSM WANTS TO TOUCH. I do not understand why.
WHERE CAN THE MATTER BE Oh, dear, where can the matter be When it's converted to energy? There is a slight loss of parity. Johnny's so long at the fair.

The UWSP men's basketball program has a history of success and it is continuing this year. The Pointers clinched at least a share of their 27th WIAC title and a #1 seed heading into the conference tournament with an overtime win over UW-Stout. They also have been ranked highly in the D-3 national poll all year. Coach Bob Semling has continued the tradition of winning that was begun by the Bennett brothers and he does it using a mix of players from around Wisconsin but also a few of the top players from our area as well. Joe Ritchay (who led the team in scoring last night) and Clayton Heuer are from Wisconsin Rapids and Jordan Lutz is from Amherst. In fact, only one player on the roster is from outside Wisconsin. The team has also had to battle through the loss of one of their best players. Senior guard Tyler Tillema has been out since mid-December with a nagging high ankle sprain. UWSP will host Eau Claire this Saturday...Senior Day at Quandt Fieldhouse with the tip-off set for 3pm.
The Pointer women's team under long time coach Shirley Egner continues to play well. They beat Stout last night to move to 19-5 on the season. They will host Eau Claire also on Senior Day Saturday.
The Bucks got a much needed win last night. Both Monta Ellis & Brandon Jennings heated up scoring 27 & 21 as the Bucks rallied in the 4th quarter. Milwaukee is now 4 games up on the Sixers for the 8th and final playoff spot in the East heading into the All-Star break. They are still close enough to move up past Boston & Atlanta in the playoff seedings so they can avoid a first round playoff series with Miami. But they won't be able to do that if they decide to trade Jennings. There were rumors floating around yesterday that Dallas was interested in the Bucks guard and that Brooklyn was interested in Irsan Ilyasova.
The Badger men's basketball team returns to action tonight as they travel to the barn in Minnesota. You can hear the game on WSAU with an eraly start...5pm pre-game...6pm tip.
The high school hockey tournament continues with second round action tonight. I'll have East-West from Marathon Park...live on FoxsportsAM1390 & FM 93.9 with the pregame at 7...that will be followed by Antigo at DC Everest. The other matchups tonight include Mosinee at Northland Pines, Pacelli at SPASH, Marshfield at Eau Claire Regis, and La Crosse at Wisconsin Rapids
The CW Storm will also host a tournament game tonight against Tomahawk (played in Mosinee)..the Point/Rapids girls team plays at Rhinelander.
Songs Of The Day (from my I-pod)
Living In The USA-Steve Miller Band (1968) back when the band still played the blues...from their second album "Sailor". Early Steve Miller is much better that the pop pap he recorded in the late 70's.
Living Loving Maid (She's Just A Woman)-Led Zeppelin (1969) from Led Zep II comes this tale of an annoying groupie. Jimmy Page reportedly didnt like the song and the band didnt use it in their live shows
