While the fundraising strategy of Stephen Post and Lauren Todd's Undergraduate Student Government presidential campaign has come under scrutiny, it has yet to be declared in violation of the election bylaws. Should the issue be brought before USG's judicial panel, however, the presidential candidate will find himself in familiar company — five of his fraternity brothers serve on the panel.
USG presidential candidate Stephen Post, a third-year in economics and political science, is in the same fraternity, Delta Sigma Phi, as five of the Judiciary Panel's 10 members, one of whom is the chief justice and another who is the clerk of court.
The official start date for USG campaigns is Feb. 22 at 8 p.m. A video posted to Facebook Wednesday night by Post included a link to a website where donations could be made to Post and his running mate, Todd, to support their "mission," although the post and video never explicitly mentions USG, the presidential campaign, or voting.
Post's campaign manager, Matt Barnett, a fourth-year in finance, has maintained that this is in accordance with USG campaigning bylaws, and that campaigns can call for "assistance" in campaigning at any time, provided they do not explicitly solicit votes. He confirmed to The Lantern that the donations would go to the presidential campaign.
As of Thursday afternoon, no brief disputing the Facebook post, video and fundraising page had been filed. However, Barnett acknowledged that the likelihood of the issue going to the judicial panel is high.
According to the standing rules of USG's Judicial Panel, "Any Justice who exhibits a conflict of interest may recuse him or herself or may be forcibly recused by the Chief Justice."
Connor Greenwood, chief justice and a third-year in political science and international studies, said in a statement that the Judicial Panel was aware of his fraternity brother's fundraising strategy, and cited the same bylaw that Barnett cited when arguing that the move was allowed.
Greenwood declined to elaborate on his and other members of the Judicial Panel's ties to Post through Delta Sigma Phi, saying only that, "The Judicial Panel is committed to maintaining a fair election and campaign season for all students."
Update 2/16: This article has been updated to reflect that five of the 10 members of the Judicial Panel are members of the Delta Sigma Phi fraternity.

Last night's Social Tech Brewing social was lots of fun.
(Notice how lazy I getabout linking? ;) )
- Phillip Smith arrived shortly after I did. He told me about CopyCamp, a copyright and art get-together on September 28, 29, 30. All sorts of luminaries! Lawrence Lessig, Cory Doctorow, Michael Geist… Awesome lineup. I totally have to be there and blog it.
- Jason Doucette came next. Phillip asked him if he was into podcasting, and it turned out that Jason podcasts for the Toronto Vegetarian Association, which is at 17 Baldwin St. I should take a look at that. Phillip is vegetarian, and I'm a semi-vegetarian-wannabe. (I want to learn how to cook vegetarian food!) TVA's attendance has been dropping off, but their podcasts attract attention from people from other cities. Their podcasts are generally 20 minutes long.
- Phillip Smith knows about a progressive podcast host / aggregator which might be interested in the vegetarian podcasts. Other interesting links: http://veganlunchbox.blogspot.com , http://www.veganporn.com ,
- Liam O'Doherty of avoid.net came too. He mentioned the Personal Propaganda Kit (T-shirts, stickers, etc) tie-in with avoid.net. He's partnering up with OCAD people to produce that, I think.
- Phillip recommended a few books: Ingenuity Gap, The Upside of Down.
- We also chatted about ideas for a Toronto wiki, something to collect information about Toronto. Interestingly, Rob Hyndman owns the domain. Good model – Davis wiki. (Hey, Himy would be a great fit for a project like that. He'd fill it with so many interesting stories!)
- Colin McGregor mentioned a group called Serial Diners. They're making their way through a phonebook of restaurants, and currently at K.
- Judy Chicago is with Women's Space.
- Gabe Sawhney's into the memory project and T.Ode.
- Jonathan found Social Tech Brewing through upcoming.org, as did Jason and Gabriel. So did I, for that matter.
- Introductions: Tempted to have "Hello, my URL is…" nametags. Reprogrammable nametags also sound interesting, as suggested by Colin.
- Jonathan's involved with Habitat for Humanity, which is somewhat interested in moving to open source.
- Introductions protocol idea: three words / tagline, name. Putting the description before the name makes it easier for people to hear interesting things and pay extra attention.
- Social Tech Brewing modeled on501c tech clubs, nonprofits.
- New network: Mobile Mondays.
- Jane attended DrupalCamp and is with DigitalEve, which is based in Lawrence West
- Chatted about Linux Caffe and social spaces. Seattle has free wireless in cafes, even to the point of having tables for two with outlets. People addicted. Some cafes turn off internet during weekends…
- Net neutrality
- Gabe mentioned that Dory of Wireless Toronto and a few other people are working on "Turn off the internet day".
- Jonathan's into $100 laptop, too. Pays attention to news.
- Chatted about gender segregation in bars, funny anecdote from Judy: "Don't be scared."
- Phillip described freegeek, an open non-profit computer part reclamation thing that's now self-funding. Break computers apart into components for melting into gold, assemble computers from working parts, keep one.
- Toronto Hydro goings-on
- Rob Hyndman says: By the way, I do own the domain for toronto wiki – because when I saw the story about the David wiki I immediately reserved the domain and pinged David Crow and told him he *had* to do it, and that I would contribute (domain, etc.). But David had seen it to and had already started!! http://to.ron.to/toronto/show/HomePage
- Check out Rob Hyndman's post: http://www.robhyndman.com/2006/06/02/a-wiki-for-toronto/
- Also, Jason Banico pledged to contribute to Asiarati, a knowledgebase for Asian countries. He's looking for other people to contribute, too. I want a wiki!

2010 was to be the year Cardinals QB and former Heisman Trophy winner Matt Leinart would prove to everyone that he was worthy of replacing Kurt Warner. It was his chance to prove to doubters that he had the work effort and passion needed to become a successful NFL QB, instead of just the rich party boy he seems to have been ever since leaving USC.
But already, the wheels are starting to fall off. Leinart won't be starting against the Bears on Saturday night. And he might not be the Cardinals starting QB come Week 1. In fact, you can probably count on his demotion becoming official.
"Well, I don't think we've played really well enough offensively to make any determination other than we need to get better," Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt said Thursday. "We're looking at different combinations of people."
U.S. & World
And if that's the nicest, most euphemistic-ridden way Whisenhunt can talk about Leinart thus far, that's not very good. Mike Lombardi of NFL Network says the Cards may even be inclined to cut Leinart before the season begins, leaving them with Derek Anderson and not much else to help defend their division title.
It all started off so promisingly for Leinart. In his first two career starts, Leinart threw for four touchdowns and just one pick. And you remember his second start very well if you're a football fan. It came against Chicago in 2006. You might remember it as the "crown their ass" game, in which the Cardinals blew a 20-point halftime lead without giving up a single offensive touchdown and lost to the Bears 24-23.
That game is memorable mostly for Denny Green's post-game histrionics. But before the Cards collapsed, that game was Leinart's prime time coming out party. He was EXCELLENT in that game. Polished. Accurate. It seemed he was well on his way to fulfilling the potential he showed at USC. Then that game happened. After that, Leinart finished the year tossing 11 picks against just 7 TD passes, and since then has gotten seemingly worse by the year.
And now, he's going to lose his job in the preseason to a Browns castoff. Maybe Leinart can pull off some kind of miraculous Alex Smith-style comeback with the team that drafted him, but that's become a laughable possibility at this point. Even if the Cardinals don't cut Leinart (and Lombardi's reasons that they should make perfect sense), there's little doubt the team will go into 2011 ready to draft a new franchise signal caller.
Where will Matt Leinart end up after that? Who knows? Maybe he'll latch on as a backup. Maybe he'll be immediately wiped away from football as Tim Couch was. Or maybe he won't want to play at all. Given his career thus far, I'm not certain Matt Leinart was all that wild about playing football to begin with.

Preparing for a RushBy Michael Fitzgerald
Kimberly-Clark Believes in the Future of RFID
Someday in the not-so-distant future, when you buy a box of Kleenex at the local pharmacy, it will trigger a chain reaction of events that will result, ultimately, in a tree being harvested in Canada. Call it the RFID Effect.
While not quite as profound as the Butterfly Effectthe notion that a single flap of a butterfly's wings can alter the weather on the other side of the worldthe potential for RFID (radio-frequency identification) technology to affect global supply chains has been the subject of debate for years.
And though it's still early, businesses of all shapes and sizes are beginning to experiment in earnest with this promising but temperamental technology, whether they believe it is the start of a retail revolution or nothing more than a glorified bar code.
Among the retailers that have embraced RFID early and often is Kimberly-Clark Corp., the $15 billion consumer goods behemoth that makes Kleenex, along with a host of other well-known brands, such as Huggies and Depend.
The Dallas-based firm was the first U.S. company to ship an item tagged with an EPC (electronic product code) off a commercial line, in April 2004. (A framed picture of that first box, a case of Scott Towels, hangs in a conference room at the company's RFID lab.)
Six Kimberly-Clark employees have joined EPCGlobal Inc., the international organization establishing the standards for RFID tags. The company is already able to selectively tag more than 144 of the items in its product line.
And in a bold attempt to take RFID beyond the infamous slap-and-ship mandate of Wal-Mart Stores Inc., Kimberly-Clark has even built a 5,000-square-foot warehouse for the sole purpose of testing its use of RFID.
Why such eagerness for an unproven technology? Kimberly-Clark executives say they firmly believe that RFID will give the retail industry the ability to achieve just-in-time efficiencies similar to those of Toyota Motor Corp. and Dell Inc.
"It's going to get to the point where we can send an alert to Wal-Mart and ask them why a store shelf is empty when we know there's product in the warehouse," said Terry Assink, CIO of Kimberly-Clark.
But this just-in-time supply chain is probably still a decade away. Right now, Kimberly-Clark is still figuring out how to incorporate RFID tags into its own operations, let alone those of its suppliers, business partners and customers. Some skeptics say they think RFID technology will never be so inexpensive that putting a tag on something like a box of Kleenex will be feasible.
Currently, developers are still trying to get the cost of an individual tag down to 10 cents (it now stands somewhere around 30 cents). Some say that even if the tags cost only a penny apiece, they would still be too expensive.
Assink steadfastly disagrees. He concedes, however, that RFID has issues: It does need to cost less. It also needs to be more widely useda process that Assink said could take five or even 10 years, as both retailers and consumer goods makers adopt the technology at varying rates. And RFID does not work well in certain environments (it has trouble transmitting through liquids and metals, for example).
None of this fazes the folks at Kimberly-Clark. Assink said he is even more convinced of RFID's impact now than he was in 2000, when the company first started examining the technology. His bullishness has been enough to give the company's RFID efforts its rarified "FOAK" statusKimberly-Clark-speak for "first of a kind" strategic initiatives that are given wide budgeting berths thanks to their importance, regardless of the time frame needed to achieve the business goal.
"RFID should give us visibility into our whole supply chain," Assink said. "From our supplier's supplier all the way to the shelfnot the pantry, mind you, but the store shelf. Think about that."
Greg Tadych, director of business systems at Kimberly-Clark, is known within the company for dragging around an overstuffed briefcase with him wherever he goes. One day in mid-2000, he and his briefcase popped into the office of Mike O'Shea, then the director of North American logistical alliances. According to O'Shea, the two began chatting, as they had done hundreds of times before. And then O'Shea remembered something.
"Hey, I was at this conference, and they were talking about something called RFID," O'Shea said, and explained the technology.
"Wow," Tadych replied, his head swimming. "Do you know what we could do with that?"
"He immediately started rattling off all these things that I hadn't even thought of," O'Shea said: stock tracking. Streamlining of shipping. Improvements in receiving and forecasting. Invoicing efficiencies. Tadych could think of ways RFID would improve Kimberly-Clark's supply chain at almost every point.
Since that day, his group in IT and O'Shea's logistics group have been joined at the hip. O'Shea is now director of Auto-ID Sensing Technologies, a position that didn't exist three years ago.

RFID Seen as a
When Tadych told Assink about his conversation with O'Shea, the CIO immediately saw that RFID was going to be a major initiativethe kind of project that would warrant FOAK status. And the hunt was on.
Assink, O'Shea and their colleagues began building their business case for significant investment early on, working toward a presentation to Kimberly-Clark's executive steering committee.
That committee, which includes the heads of the company's product groups and some of its top executives, makes a number of the company's operating decisionsincluding approving the global IT budget.
The case Assink and O'Shea were building became a no-brainer when Wal-Mart began talking up the technology in 2002. As a result, RFID got an easy green light from the executive steering committee that same year.
Of course, Kimberly-Clark wasn't the only consumer goods giant spurred to action by the Wal-Mart mandate. Sony Corp., Johnson & Johnson and Procter & Gamble Co. all have representatives on the board of EPCGlobal. But Kimberly-Clark is "clearly an innovator," according to Bill Hardgrave, who runs the RFID Research Center at the University of Arkansas.
Staying on the shelves at Wal-Martand at Target Corp., Albertson's Inc., Metro Group and Tesco Corp. (other big retailers pushing for RFID)was not the main reason Kimberly-Clark was interested in the technology, however. It was only the ante.
RFID means money, probably big money, for Kimberly-Clark: The company has the potential to wring huge efficiencies out of its supply chain by revolutionizing inventory management. Bar codes have to be seen to be scanned, and empty shelves have to be noticed by someone before they can be restocked.
But a shelf with an RFID reader can sense that there are no more Huggies, Size 5, on the shelf, and automatically send a message to the retailer, the distributor and even the manufacturer.
That should translate into higher sales, for both the retailer and the wholesaler, though how much higher remains to be seen. Hardgrave, who conducted a study on Wal-Mart's use of RFID, speculated that the technology could increase sales by about a half percentage point. That might not sound like much, but for a $300 billion company such as Wal-Mart that comes to $1.5 billion a year.
Kimberly-Clark also said it expects RFID to improve inventory tracking. Despite investing heavily in building a world-class supply chain, the company still gets calls from customers claiming they were shorted on orders. In fact, it gets such calls every day. O'Shea said the customers probably received the boxes, but don't have the right bar code information, so it seems as if they don't have them. And if there is a shortage, then there's probably an overage in another store.
But the truth is that RFID's impact on Kimberly-Clark's business is still to come.
Today, less than 1 percent of the goods Kimberly-Clark ships carry RFID tags, and that's only at the case and pallet level. For that matter, only a handful of retailers are currently pushing for RFID (though, of course, one of them does happen to be Wal-Mart).
Even tagging the actual shelves is a completely separate, and huge, investment. A typical Wal-Mart store has 12,000 four-foot shelves. That's a lot of shelves to equip with RFID readers.
All of which means that Wall Street isn't exactly rewarding Kimberly-Clark's share price for its efforts. "It's not something investors should be paying much attention to yet," said Jason Gere, an analyst at A.G. Edwards & Sons Inc. He said he thinks it will be at least a couple of years before RFID starts to have any kind of material impact for large consumer goods companies such as Kimberly-Clark and Procter & Gamble.
However, Gere said he does think it's good that Kimberly-Clark is ahead of the curve on RFID. "I'd be concerned if they weren't doing it. I think it can be an important piece of any consumer packaged-goods strategy a couple of years down the road. They should be doing the legwork."

Flattening the Learning Curve
Ground zero for RFID at Kimberly-Clark is its massive manufacturing plant and distribution center in Neenah, Wis. Roughly 5,000 square feet of the facility has been built out as a laboratory just to test RFID. Its formal name is the Auto-ID Sensing Technologies Performance Test Center.
Designed to reflect actual factory and distribution facilities, the lab has a 270-foot-long conveyor loop, part of which runs at factory speeds of 200 and 250 feet per minute, while another part duplicates the 600 feet-per-minute speed used at Wal-Mart, Target and other retailers.
The lab has a full-sized stretch-wrapper of the same kind Kimberly-Clark uses to shrink-wrap "cubes" of, say, 60 boxes of Huggies to ship to a retailer. There's also a table with more than a dozen different RFID tags, including some with antennas printed on paper.
Mike O'Shea, giving a tour of the lab, pointed to a row of doors that lead onto the shipping dock. There are RFID readers mounted next to each doorway, but they're useless. "Look how close together the doors are," O'Shea said. "The reader on one door picks up the signals from something coming into the other door."
In other words, outfitting the roughly 1,000 dock doors at various Kimberly-Clark facilities would not prevent the packing errors that are among the reasons the company is investing in RFID.
Putting the readers on the forklifts used to load the trucks presents its own set of problems. Besides the prospect of the readers being crushed, there's also the fact that RFID doesn't transmit well through metal. "We aren't completely dressed for the dance yet," O'Shea said.
There have been productive lessons learned, however. Kimberly-Clark has figured out that tagging the upper left corner of individual boxes gives the most accurate reads when, later, these boxes are shrink-wrapped and might wind up in the middle of a cube. And the company has discovered, too, that it will need different tags for different kinds of productstags and readers that work with paper towels, for instance, don't work well with wet wipes.
To resolve that matter and others, the company is considering setting up a separate lab in Roswell, Ga. The company is also upgrading its warehouse management system, which currently communicates with forklifts over the same 915MHz frequency used by RFID.
And then there are environmental concerns. The lab recently shipped two stacks of goods by boat to Malaysia so that the effects of temperature, humidity and other factors could be monitored, in an effort to get a sense of the issues that might arise when exporting product. There's even research into what impact RFID tags might have on the environment itself. "There are still a lot of challenges," O'Shea said. "I'll be at this job for a while."

Next page: Preparing for a Rush of Data
Preparing for a Rush
of Data">
In mid-2004, Assink first saw the writing on the wall and began taking steps to prepare for the gobs of data that would be heading his way when RFID became a reality at Kimberly-Clark. He took the unusual step of demanding that Tadych develop an RFID strategic applications plan.
Using that plan, Kimberly-Clark began focusing on two supply chain projects: One is an electronic proof of delivery program, the other is an out-of-stock management program.
Jonathan Landon, director of personal productivity and communications services, had to make sure not just that the company's centralized hub-and-spoke network could withstand the huge uptick in data volumes that RFID will eventually produce, but that it can help customers and suppliers do the same thing.
"We've done things we've never had to do before," said Landon, such as including one business partner in an application pilot project. Extending the company's IT infrastructure past its traditional boundaries has meant rethinking its security model, and figuring out how to make relevant data, and only that relevant data, available to partners.
The biggest issue with RFID is that it pumps out data in real time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. "We have to be highly available," Landon said. "We can't just tell someone, 'Oh, we were down for the last eight hours and didn't get any reads.'"
Once the RFID technology is fully operational, the company's applications will have to handle data on a far bigger scalethat's an issue Landon is still working on. As RFID use spreads across retailing, Landon said, the huge amount of addressing and routing capability needed will clearly require an infrastructure upgrade.
For now, though, he has network throughput at about 43G bits per second, with room for expansion, so capacity is not an immediate concern. In fact, Kimberly-Clark would like to pull in more data than it currently does. "We're trying to influence the standards so there's a little space for us to use for custom data," Landon said.
At the same time, the company said it expects it will regularly dump most of its RFID data, saving only the data it needs, in order to prevent overwhelming its storage infrastructure.
Despite the many unknowns, Kimberly-Clark executives say they strongly believe that RFID will trigger a slew of new ideas they've yet to even conceive. And Assink points to the fact that RFID standards have moved far faster than UPC codes did. Today, 30 years after the bar code was first deployed, there is still not a single international standard.
By comparison, EPCGlobal passed its preliminary Gen 2 RFID tag standard in June. Kimberly-Clark has even applied for its first RFID-related patent.
"RFID is a positively disruptive technology," Assink said. "So idea leads to idea. We're not on the bleeding edge just to be bleeding."

Chesterfield Area Civic Progress will recognize the contributions of two educational institutions, a senator and the world's largest pharmaceutical company at its 12th annual Excellence in Community Development Awards luncheon.
As has become tradition, the affair will be held on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, Nov. 26., at the Doubletree Hotel in Chesterfield.
Event emcees are Rev. Jeff Perry, a past recipient and pastor of the St. Louis Family Church, and Tom Shaw Sr., president of Shaw Realtors and a founding director of the CACP. Missouri Secretary of State Matt Blunt will be the featured speaker.
Recipients of the 2003 edition of Excellence in Community Development are Sen. Jim Talent, Christian Brothers College High School, Lindenwood University's Daniel Boone Home and Pfizer Inc.
Shaw said "You encourage what you honor, and for more than a decade, we have encouraged policies and actions that are pro-growth, pro-job and pro-region. This year we also recognize the importance of preserving our region's heritage."
John Hammond, a member of the Lindenwood Board of Directors, is president of CACP and the former owner of GW Composites in O'Fallon, Mo. He said, "Our selection of Senator Talent goes back, in part, to the help he provided during the flood of 1993 when he was in the House. He's also our first senator to hail from the city of Chesterfield. We think he and his family represent the typical Chesterfield family - except that Jim's a member of the world's most exclusive club."
Hammond said the architecture of CBC's new campus at Interstates 270 and 64 helped win the 154-year-old prep school recognition.
"The presentation of their new campus on Highway 40 is very striking," he said, "and after a couple of decades of architectural minimalism, we were pleased that they made a statement not just about who they are but who they have been. It's traditional, and it stands out."
After acquiring Pharmacia, Hammond said, Pfizer's decision to restructure their 200-acre Chesterfield campus as one of its six research sites worldwide meant the retention of 1000 jobs.
"These are high-tech, high-paying jobs," said Hammond. "The campus is in our city, but the jobs will help the whole region's economy."
Hammond thinks Pfizer will generate birds-of-a-feather benefits: "Ph.D.s attract other Ph.D.s. We hope this will be a magnet to more high-tech companies who want to leverage the capabilities of the people in our area and the innovations that come out of our research institutions."
The fourth recipient is the Daniel Boone Home in Defiance, Mo., owned by St. Charles-based Lindenwood University.
"We wanted to recognize their efforts to preserve the Boone Home," said Hammond. "Had Lindenwood not done this, there was no way to ensure its preservation in perpetuity. Now that they own it, it's also been the basis for the school's National Center for the Study of American Culture and Values."

Persistent rain and saturated soils have generated concern about nitrogen fertilizer loss. Nitrogen fertilizer is subject to considerable loss from excessive rainfall and wet, saturated soils. The loss resulting from saturated conditions and flooding occurs primarily through denitrification, particularly in heavy textured soils. Denitrification occurs when nitrate nitrogen is converted into nitrogen gas by microorganisms and escapes into the air. Two to three days of saturation are required for the process to begin.
The amount of nitrogen loss is very difficult to predict, and depends upon many factors. The primary factors affecting loss are fertilizer application timing, nitrogen source, and quantity applied, relative to the duration of saturated conditions and soil temperatures during this time. Essentially, seasonal nitrogen loss can be quite high, if a lot of nitrogen is exposed to numerous days of saturated conditions, particularly when soil temperatures are warm – in other words, early nitrogen application increases potential loss. This is why we strongly advocate applying nitrogen fertilizer to corn using split application methodology.
Warm soil temperatures accelerate the denitrification process. Research indicates denitrification rates range from 2-3% per day at soil temperatures from 55-65 F or 4-5% per day if soil temperatures exceed 65 F. Fortunately, the cool temperatures thus far this spring, should have limited daily denitrification rates to the low range of this scale.
Timing of nitrogen application and nitrogen source affect the amount of applied nitrogen that will be in the nitrate form. This is important, because only the portion of nitrogen fertilizer present in the nitrate form is subject to denitrification. The following table estimates percentage of fertilizer present in the nitrate form for different nitrogen sources depending upon the time after application (adopted from "Evaluating Flood Damage in Corn, Lee et al., Univ. of Kentucky, AGR-193).
For example, if you applied 200 pounds/a of N as UAN (32%) three weeks before the field became saturated and soil temperatures were about 60 degrees F, about 120 pounds N (200 x 60%) are present in the nitrate form. Each day of saturation after the initial two days results in an approximate nitrogen loss of about 3.6 lbs. of N per day (120 x 3%). Thus, if this field has been saturated for about 12-14 days, then anticipated N loss would be about 40 lbs./a.

The purpose of BIS 300 Interdisciplinary Inquiry is to set the stage for students' success as they pursue an undergraduate degree in Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences (IAS). The course provides an introduction to the use and keeping of portfolios, and an orientation to the IAS program portfolio and assessment process. The course stresses interdisciplinary inquiry and the richness of the resource environment in IAS. It encourages students to think about how various types of knowledge are produced, and how they can learn to think and act as researchers by becoming active, creative, and self-critical makers of knowledge in academic and non-academic genres.
Interdisciplinary Inquiry (BIS 300) is a collaborative effort between IAS faculty and the staff of the Library, Writing Center, and Quantitative Skills Center. Considerable variation appears in the themes, readings, and assignments in individual sections of the course as instructors, librarians, and academic staff innovate and experiment with different pedagogies. What holds the various sections of the course together is our overarching goal to advance the IAS learning objectives by helping students to:
1. Understand the interdisciplinary production of knowledge and the ways it underwrites different aspects of the IAS program, including an orientation to the program's diverse and inter-related (inter)disciplinary fields and methods of inquiry, and its portfolio-based assessment process
2. Become more skilled at critical self-reflection on their learning by making connections among assignments through a course portfolio process that models the program's degree portfolio and promotes self-directed learning.
3. Become better critical thinkers, readers, and writers, capable of posing and addressing a variety of complex questions drawing on various types of evidence and writing in a variety of modes.
4. Become better inquiry-based researchers, able to use the resources at UWB and elsewhere in order to identify scholarly work while producing original knowledge through data gathering, interpretation and the use of evidence.
5. Become better writers and presenters, ones who are able to communicate clearly, engagingly, and persuasively about complicated topics, arguments, and issues.
6. Learn to work well collaboratively and to build shared leadership capacities.

Get Out the Vote
National pro-life leader stresses importance of Election Day.
In just a few days, the pro-life people of our country will have their first concrete opportunity to begin to take back the ground lost in the 2008 election.
Consider the setbacks to life that have taken place since President Obama moved into the Oval Office. The Mexico City Policy was reversed, again allowing for U.S. financing of international programs that fund abortion; the Food and Drug Administration, over the strenuous objection of many in the medical field, approved Ella, an emergency contraceptive that Catholic bishops and others recognize as an abortifacient; federal funding has been restored to embryonic stem-cell research, which kills human life; a health-care law was passed that, if it is not repealed or significantly revised, will have taxpayer dollars funding abortion; and the U.S. Justice Department and the FBI, with their friends from Planned Parenthood, the National Abortion Federation and other pro-abortion groups, have put together a "resource guide" for dealing with pro-life groups considered to be violent. Priests for Life is included on the watch list.
"It's been a dark few years for America," said David Bereit, national director for 40 Days for Life, during a "Get Out the Vote" webcast this week. (The webcast, the third in a series conducted by Priests for Life and the Vote Pro-life Coalition, is available for replay at PriestsforLife.org/webcast.)
Even with more Americans identifying themselves as pro-life than ever before, abortion is not uppermost on voters' minds.
"We've got to remind them … the moral issues are the base," said David Barton, founder and president of WallBuilders, a Christian pro-family organization, during the Oct. 27 webcast. The nation's Catholic bishops, and one of our newest cardinals, Cardinal-designate Raymond Burke, have stressed the same issue.
"You can never vote for someone who favors absolutely the right to choice of a woman to destroy a human life in her womb or the right to a procured abortion," the cardinal-elect said in an interview with Catholic Action for Faith and Family.
While the secular media has gone out of its way to portray many pro-life candidates as anywhere from quirky to downright crazy, Barton says we need to keep our focus on the platform of the party the candidate represents.
"People elected to office don't have as much clout as we think they do," he said. Policy is determined by the leadership of the party caucuses and not by any individual candidate. If a candidate's party platform is pro-life, and bona fide pro-lifers have endorsed that candidate, voters can be assured they are casting a vote for life.
On Nov. 2, we have an opportunity to change things. But there is still work to do and not much time to do it. Here are a few suggestions for things you can do right now.
Print out voter guides for your state: Find them at PoliticalResponsibility.com or ChristianVoterGuide.com. Show them to your pastor and ask if he would distribute them in church. (It is perfectly legal for a church to do this for a neutral voter guide.) Find other ways to distribute the guides yourself or in conjunction with local groups.
Use your e-mail lists or your social media contacts to spread the message that a vote for life is the only way to reverse the culture of death.
Attach yourself to a political campaign and volunteer to be a poll watcher. Voter fraud in many early voting states has become a concern, so election monitoring is vitally important.
Erect signs for pro-life candidates on your property. Signs make a difference by giving courage to people who may be sitting on the fence.
Volunteer to pick up and drive to the polls anyone who might otherwise have to sit out the election.
Last, but not least, pray. Pray that American voters have the courage to vote with their consciences and not their pocketbooks. Pray that pro-life leaders who are elected work hard to keep their promises. Pray that God will look favorably on our efforts to safeguard his creation.
Father Frank Pavone is national director of Priests for Life.

My sister wishes to homeschool her husband's two children, both of which live with them full-time (supported 100%). Her husband has legal custody of his two children, but my sister has not adopted them. Do you think it's legal for her to homeschool her husband's children? We live in California, and I couldn't find anything on HSLDA about that.
The children's biological mother is alive, but not involved. I do believe she lost custody rights, and only the grandparents are allowed visitation.
They recently moved to the Hayward/Oakland area, and the public Jr. and Sr. High Schools are terrifying them. A lot of drugs and gangs.

The law in California doesn't address this issue, but HSLDA has had experience with it. Your bil should call HSLDA and ask.

Earth Changes
Are Psychic Predictions Unavoidable?
By Kevin J. Todeschi
One challenge that arises when working with psychic predictions is that they are completely subject to the activities and the free will of those individuals about whom the "prophecy" is foretold. This means that a psychic can make predictions based only upon current events and "thought-forms." These thoughts and events are then projected onto a future time-line, enabling an effective psychic to "see" the result.
However, because of the very nature of predictions, they are not set in stone, nor are they necessarily unavoidable. When enough individuals combine, utilizing their free will in a positive direction, the potential future "seen" by the psychic is altered. An excellent example of this is the Old Testament story of Jonah. He foresaw the destruction of Nineveh because of the people's own negative thoughts and deeds. God Himself was not going to destroy the city, rather it was the people themselves who were bringing about a destruction based upon their own selfishness and acts of hate toward one another. In order to help the people, Jonah predicted the city's downfall. As a result, the people banded together, changed their thoughts and actions, and – through the use of unified free will – altered their foreseen future in less than forty days! The destruction never came, and Nineveh was saved.
We might even say that the people of Nineveh were "destined" to undergo profound personal changes that would give them a greater opportunity to fulfill God's Will for their lives. It was not that the destruction of the city was inevitable; instead, it was that collective transformation of the citizens was inevitable one way or another. Through the use of free will, the people were able to decide for themselves how their personal change was to be brought about. The people transformed themselves and, in turn, the city, rather than having external events in the city force them to undergo personal change.
One of the most interesting dynamics of people working together is that they can raise the "vibration" of energy and thought to a higher level. Simply stated, this means that literal physical earth changes seen decades ago by Edgar Cayce could now be changes that will occur on a different level. Certainly, some earthquakes will continue to occur as part of the natural physical evolution of the planet. But potentially even more influential changes could come from world-wide political turmoil, economic challenges, wars, and many more "upheavals" that are not necessarily geological in nature. In fact, one of the earth change readings states that the exact nature of what's coming is yet to be shaped: "As to the changes that are coming...these will, as indicated, depend upon what individuals and groups do about what they know respecting His will, His purpose with man." (reading #1602-6).
Kevin Todeschi is A.R.E.'s Executive Director and CEO. As both student and teacher of the Edgar Cayce material for thirty years, he is the author of over twenty books, including his most recent, God In Real Life: Personal Encounters with the Divine, and the bestselling Edgar Cayce on the Akashic Records. Known for his ability to explain complex subjects in a straightforward and easy to understand manner, Kevin is popular for his insight and his sense of humor.

TUCSON, Ariz. — President Barack Obama mourned victims of the Tucson shooting spree Wednesday and urged Americans not to let a political debate over the tragedy be used as "one more occasion to turn on one another."
In a speech at a service for those killed in a weekend massacre that left Rep. Gabrielle Giffords gravely wounded, the president appealed for national unity and soul-searching after the shootings. He urged Americans to "expand our moral imaginations" and "sharpen our instincts for empathy" — even with those who are political adversaries.
"I believe we can be better," Obama said to a capacity crowd at the University of Arizona basketball arena — and to countless others watching across America. "Those who died here, those who saved lives here — they help me believe. We may not be able to stop all evil in the world, but I know that how we treat one another is entirely up to us."
Six people were killed and 13 wounded in the massacre. Police allege 22-year-old Jared Lee Loughner shot Giffords and many in the line of people waiting to talk with her during a constituent event outside a Safeway store.Story: Obama: 'Heroism is here'
Obama referred to the Tucson gunman, although not by name. "None of us can know exactly what triggered this vicious attack," the president said. "None of us can know with any certainty what might have stopped these shots from being fired or what thoughts lurked in the inner recesses of a violent man's mind."

The attack sparked a vehement debate over whether the country's heated political discourse had contributed to the shooting.
Using the massacre to address the nation's spiritual state, the president decried the small-minded nature of political debate. "If this tragedy prompts reflection and debate, as it should, let's make sure it's worthy of those we have lost," he said in a speech that was frequently interrupted by applause and cheers from the audience.
"Let's make sure it's not on the usual plane of politics and point scoring and pettiness that drifts away in the next news cycle."
At a time when "we are far too eager to lay the blame for all that ails the world at the feet of those who happen to think differently than we do," Obama said, the killings should make Americans ask themselves "Have we shown enough kindness and generosity and compassion to people in our lives?"
Sarah Palin, the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, was drawn into the national debate after the shootings. Last March, Giffords noted in a TV interview that Palin's political committee had targeted her district — among others — with crosshairs on her website and said "there are consequences to that action."
On Wednesday, Palin posted a video online in which she defended her actions and rebuked the news media and her critics.Story: On Tucson and politics, Palin plays by own rules
'Powerful and uplifting'
Newspapers on the left and right of the political spectrum praised the president for his speech.
- A New York Times editorial called it "one of his most powerful and uplifting speeches." Mr. Obama said that it must be possible for Americans to question each other's ideas without questioning their love of country," added the newspaper, known for its liberal opinion page. We hope all of America's leaders, and all Americans, will take that to heart."
- The Wall Street Journal, known for its conservative opinion pages, declared that "President Obama rose to the occasion yesterday evening at the memorial ceremony for the victims of Saturday's murders in Tucson, not least because he spoke to the better angels of our democracy."
- In The Washington Post, former George W. Bush speechwriter Marc Thiessen also complimented the president's perfomance in Tucson. "President Obama's address at the memorial in Tucson was really two speeches in one. The first speech was brilliant. The second was courageous," he wrote, adding that Obama had rebuked those on the left who had tried to politicize the shootings. "This was unexpected. It was courageous. It was genuine. And the president deserves credit for saying it," Theissen wrote.
- Peggy Noonan, who was a speechwriter to Ronald Reagan, described the address as "full spirited." She told MSNBC's 'Morning Joe that Obama said what he needed to say. "In the days since the shooting in Arizona, a lot of people went straight down into the muck and started wrestling there. He didn't go there."
- On the far left, Mother Jones's David Corn praised the speech, saying it was a blow to the president's critics on the right. "The Obama Hate Machine better pray that Obama doesn't get other chances to address the nation in this manner," he wrote.
'Gabby opened her eyes'
During the speech, the crowd was also cheered by unexpected news that Giffords had opened her eyes and signaled she could see earlier on Wednesday.
"Gabby opened her eyes," Obama said to a loud cheer from the audience on the University of Arizona campus, adding that the congresswoman "knows we are here." Although the president wasn't in the room at the moment Giffords' eyes opened, he said her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, had given him permission to break the news.
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, three of Giffords' close female friends in Congress, were in the hospital room at that time.Video: Obama: Giffords 'knows we are rooting for her' (on this page)
Dr. Peter Rhee, chief of the trauma unit, led the Obamas' 45-minute visit to the hospital.
On Capitol Hill earlier in the day, Giffords' House colleagues praised her and the other shooting victims and insisted that violence would not silence democracy.
"We will have the last word," declared new House Speaker John Boehner, fighting back tears as he described Giffords' battle to recover.Story: Report: Loughner lost it after teen break-up
Also on Wednesday, Pima Community College in Tucson has released records of its campus police contacts with Loughner, showing the increasing fear that he stirred in his classmates and teachers.
A thread running through the documents is the difficulty of campus police to find a context in which to intervene: Until they found a violation of the student code of conduct, or a state law, police officers wrote in the reports that they weren't sure what else they could do, even when a fellow student said she thought Loughner had brought a knife to class.
The records show no indication that the college took steps to get Loughner any mental health counseling.Campus police records show Loughner was feared
Loughner also seemed not to understand the seriousness of the fears. When police spoke with him, Loughner said his free speech rights were being violated, and seemed to have trouble understanding why he had been called out of class.
Meanwhile in Washington, D.C., authorities stepped-up security around lawmakers in the wake of the shooting.
A 32-year-old man was also arrested on a charge that he made threatening, obscene phone calls to the office of U.S. Rep. Jim McDermott last month.
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Seattle said Charles Turner Habermann, of Palm Springs, was taken into custody Wednesday morning.

The Wasted: The Toxic Waste Zombie Type
The Wasted: The Toxic Waste Zombie Type
The latest in my Zombies Defined comic series.
To be honest I expect the three types of Chemical zombies to have the most arguments about them.
Look most people aren't chemists, myself included, and I can see how it could be argued that there is not enough to differentiate the three types of zombies here in my list.
To show a difference between the chemical subtypes of zombie I think you have to go with what the chemical/drugs were intended for.
Chemical Zombies
- Pharmaceutical (These were drugs intended to help humans….. instead…. oh crap! zombies!)
- Toxic/Medical Waste (Discarded waste material that spontaneously raises the dead…. somehow)
- Misc. Chemicals (Compounds that revive the dead as a side affect)
For the record the only chemical I really care about is sweet sweet caffeine.
I love you Caffeine.
If you were a woman I'd marry you… ah hell, even if you were a dude… and an ugly dude at that.
Don't you judge me! Who are you to deny our love?

This article originally appeared on Rediff on August 10, 2007.
Last week, an Indian journalist asked me who had the most to gain from the US-India nuclear agreement. The answer, I had thought, was obvious -- India, specifically India's people and India's businesses. The fact that this is not self-evident to many Indians speaks volumes about the trust deficit remaining between the United States and India, as well as India's lingering insecurity concerning its role on the world stage.
From an Indian perspective, what exactly does the nuclear deal accomplish? The direct benefits to India are three-fold: Increased energy diversity, greater access to technology and the potential for newer and deeper strategic partnerships.
As anyone who has experienced India's infamous 18-hour power cuts can tell you, its people and its burgeoning businesses are badly in need of stable, assured energy sources. This will require a diversification of India's energy options, including more efficient fossil fuel use, the harnessing or import of greater amounts of hydroelectric power, and the development of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power, in addition to greater investments in nuclear energy.
Nuclear energy currently accounts for a pitiful 3 per cent of India's overall energy, despite a sizeable nuclear infrastructure. The deal could greatly increase that figure in the coming decades.
Technologically, India has been denied access to vital scientific know-how since its nuclear weapons test in 1974. The technological denial has applied not only to expertise related to civilian nuclear energy, but also to various 'dual-use' technologies, such as propulsion and electronic systems, which could theoretically be used for military purposes. It has applied even to a range of seemingly innocuous agriculture- and health-related technologies. The nuclear deal explicitly and implicitly eliminates these technological barriers.
Lastly, the deal gives India an elevated standing in the global nuclear and political order, not quite on par with the five Nuclear Weapon States designated by the Non-Proliferation Treaty, but nevertheless, a far greater standing than it has ever enjoyed before. The removal of technological barriers and the development of at least one crucial sector of the economy could in turn lead to greater and deeper economic and strategic ties not just with the United States, but also with Russia, Europe, China and Japan.
These three primary benefits for India from the nuclear agreement could, in turn, have a ripple effect. The US-India relationship is expected to improve along many dimensions in multiple sectors in the coming years, leading to increased trade in goods, greater investment in a diverse range of industries, and further social and cultural exchange between the two countries.
To some extent, such improvements are taking place already, regardless of the nuclear agreement and the agreement's impact on these fields will consequently be difficult to gauge. However, two specific aspects of the US-India relationship, with similarly tenuous connections to the nuclear agreement, may yet prove indirect beneficiaries of the deal.
The first will be greater commercial and technological opportunities in the defence sector. The US military industrial complex is already looking at India as a money-spinning market for its weapons systems. Of course, India, as the world's largest purchaser of military equipment, has no obligation -- legal or otherwise -- to buy American defence equipment. In fact, India will most likely continue to buy cheaper Russian and Israeli products whenever available, as they may be enough to ensure technological parity, if not slight superiority, vis-a-vis its two major competitors, China and Pakistan.
However, the option of buying American defence equipment is now on the table, and in some cases at least, the Indian government would be wise to take advantage of this opportunity. This does not mean that India should necessarily grant the multi-billion dollar contract for 126 medium multi-role combat aircraft to an American company. But India's war-fighting machinery could benefit enormously from such acquisitions as superior night vision, better communications technology and more sophisticated electronic warfare systems.
The Indian military, which has pitiful little say in the choice of equipment purchased, is keen to acquire high-quality American products, many of which are denied to the Chinese and Pakistani militaries. The purchase of select American equipment could therefore see India gain a sizeable military-technological advantage over its regional competitors.
A second indirect benefit to India could be in the education sector. Some 20,000-odd Indian students, academics and researchers have been flocking to the United States each year for the past decade, and US universities are likely to remain the world's pre-eminent institutions of research and learning. However, Indian scientists have so far been prevented access to, or discouraged from cooperating in, sensitive nuclear-related and other high-technology fields.
The nuclear agreement can potentially eliminate this knowledge embargo, allowing interested and competent Indians to study and conduct further research in top US universities. Some will almost assuredly settle in the United States and contribute to that country's scientific establishment as part of the inevitable brain drain. Others, as recent migration trends have begun to show, will likely return to India with top-notch academic credentials and experiences and would prove valuable additions to their native country's scientific establishment. As the Chinese are so fond of saying under such circumstances, a more robust scientific and academic relationship between the United States and India could prove to be 'a win-win situation.'
The biggest remaining impediment, both to the consummation of the agreement and India's ability to reap its fruits, is the trust factor. Understandably, Indians have historically had reasons to mistrust the United States. They remember the Tarapur episode following India's 1974 nuclear explosion, as well as the turnaround in US support for India between 1965 and 1971. More recently, they read about the United States considering reneging on F-16 parts to Hugo Chavez's hostile Venezuela. The nuclear deal, offered seemingly altruistically by the US to India, is in part an effort to assure Indians that the United States can indeed be trusted.
Enduring distrust of the United States is substantiated by lingering Indian insecurity and suspicion in its foreign policy, frequently bordering on paranoia. As C Raja Mohan recently noted in light of the 123 Agreement between the US and India, 'It is a long political tradition in India to look for secret clauses in bilateral agreements.' But India is no longer the weak, impoverished country it was in 1974, nor is it an oil-rich but petty state like Venezuela.
As a fast-growing economy and the fourth largest military power, India's ventures in foreign policy -- be they concerning Iran, Nepal, Pakistan or even Fiji -- should scarcely be fraught with such hesitance or trepidation. The boldness of the nuclear deal could provide a much-needed boost of confidence to a country which, at 60, is only now learning to tightrope across the world stage without the safety net of the United Nations or the Non-Aligned Movement.
It should be noted that US-India relations were not always laden with such mutual suspicion. Indians often conveniently forget that a warmer US-India relationship, which included cooperation and alignment on Tibet and China, existed until the Indo-Pakistan war of 1965. The US and its institutions were also among the prime technological and scientific contributors to India's 'Green Revolution' and its subsequent agricultural self-sufficiency.
While some opinion contributors in the Indian press have descended to questioning the patriotism of the proponents of the nuclear deal, a glance at the wide-ranging benefits of the agreement for common Indians clearly demonstrates in whose best interests the deal was arranged. Many of these critics -- Cold War atavists -- appear sadly negligent towards the needs of India's people and overlook the plain facts about the US-India relationship.
Today, India sends more students to the United States than any other country, Indians regularly think more favourably of the United States than citizens of most other countries do, and the United States remains India's largest trade partner. Arguably, the nuclear agreement is an attempt by both governments to improve their relationship to a level comparable to the relationships between their people and between their business communities. Indian mistrust of the United States, once synonymous with its foreign policy, is clearly a sentiment belonging to the past.

ReadWriteWeb has disbanded its blog network, which included AltSearchEngines and last100, as well as the main ReadWriteWeb blog. Richard MacManus says that the reason for the decision is "to focus on building and extending our core ReadWriteWeb brand". That makes sense, we're in a recession after all, and it is better to tighten the portfolio and strengthen the things you truly believe in.
Also from the RWW post on the matter:
I will retain a personal stake in both AltSearchEngines and last100, but as of 1 November they are under the majority ownership of Charles Knight (AltSearchEngines) and Steve O'Hear (last100). I'd like to thank Charles and Steve for putting in so much effort to build up AltSearchEngines and last100 respectively. Both have done a great job covering their respective niches and we wish them all the best in continuing to grow the sites.
I can't find anything about this on last100, but AltSearchEngines writes about it, using cute toons to further push the point. [Read more…]

A long awaited option for many spring powered airsoft enthusiasts, Tokyo Marui has finally released the MK23 spring powered pistol. This pistol is well put together and offers similar levels of detail as KSC's much more expensive MK23. Of course, the low cost means that we forego many of the functional features. Slide still pulls back however for cocking and the hammer works as well. Threaded barrel allows taking of the KSC MK23 silencer. Full size magazine for more realism and an accurately sized rail means you will be able to take all accessories designed for the MK23. Check out our spring powered pistols section to get one.
WA Striker Standard
Clamoring under the popularity of rail frame pistols, WA has released a rail frame single column pistol that accommodates any accessory that fits on the rail of your Glock 17 / 18C. Nice metal Bomar sights top off a great package. Nice and heavy.

Late Tuesday night, Scott Olsen, a former Marine, two-time Iraq war veteran, and member of Iraq Veterans Against the War, sustained a skull fracture after being shot in the head with a police projectile while peacefully participating in an Occupy Oakland march. The march began at a downtown library and headed towards City Hall in an effort to reclaim a site—recently cleared by police—that had previously served as an encampment for members of the 99% movement.
Scott joined the Marines in 2006, served two-tours in Iraq, and was discharged in 2010. Scott moved to California from Wisconsin and currently works as a systems network administrator in Daly, California.
Scott is one of an increasing number of war veterans who are participating in America's growing Occupy movement. Said Keith Shannon, who deployed with Scott to Iraq, "Scott was marching with the 99% because he felt corporations and banks had too much control over our government, and that they weren't being held accountable for their role in the economic downturn, which caused so many people to lose their jobs and their homes."
Scott is currently sedated at a local hospital awaiting examination by a neurosurgeon. Iraq Veterans Against the Wars sends their deepest condolences to Scott, his family, and his friends. IVAW also sends their thanks to the brave folks who risked bodily harm to provide care to Scott immediately following the incident.
UPDATE: — New video posted to YouTube suggests that Olsen was hit at close range with a tear-gas canister. After demonstrators rush to Olsen's aid, an Oakland cop waits a few beats before lobbing a second explosive device at the crowd. They are attending to Olsen when the canister explodes, sending smoke everywhere.
UPDATE: — Scott is awake and was very happy to see his family! He can write but has trouble speaking and understanding speech. The San Francisco Chronicle reports that doctors are optimistic he could make a full recovery.
