Almost the whole world had condemned the Mumbai attacks of November 2008. Such terrorism had also, once again, reminded us how important it is to combat the forces of communalist terror and political violence in the Indian subcontinent. But what is often ignored or suppressed is the fact that there are deep underlying causes of the malaise that erupts in the shape of such violent actions; the unresolved Kashmir issue happens to be the one prime cause that inflames the passions and anger of millions of people.
However, to repeat the mantra of "war on terror" as the Bush Administration had done for the last eight years while planning and starting major wars of aggression does not bring us one inch closer to solving the problem of violence and terror in our region. On the contrary, such short-sighted propaganda gimmicks were and are meant to camouflage the wars of aggression and lay the ground for further violence and bloodshed. The basic motive is to advance imperial interests and domination. The so-called "war on terror" is no war against terror; on the contrary, it has been the continuation of the American imperial policy for its definite goals in the Middle East and beyond. Obviously any serious effort to combat terror will necessarily take into account the causes of terror, and not merely be content with the visible symptoms.
The unresolved issue of Kashmir has kept India and Pakistan on a dangerous course of confrontation since 1947, when the British raj came to an end and as a last act of charity to their subjects the imperial rulers agreed to divide India along communal lines, which was to prove a Pandora's box for the coming generations. We had witnessed their double-dealings in the process when they gave their blessings and patronage here and there and a lot of mischief wherever possible, especially while they drew the boundaries between the two emerging countries. The recipients of favors reciprocated in kind: the last viceroy Lord Mountbatten was made the first Governor-General of Free India! This carefully crafted expedient arrangement served its purpose well for one country at the cost of the other.
At the time of partition, the princely State of Jammu and Kashmir was ruled by the Hindu Dogra ruler, Maharaja Hari Singh who was the great-grandson of Gulab Singh, to whom the British, under the terms of the Treaty of Amritsar (1846) had sold the entire valley of Kashmir. Because the overwhelming majority of Kashmir was Muslim, it was thought that Kashmir would join the new state of Pakistan. When the Kashmiris from what came to be known as Azad Kashmir and the tribal fighters from the North Western Frontier Province of Pakistan started a guerilla offensive on the state to bring pressure on Hari Singh to join Pakistan, he asked Lord Mountbatten for help, who agreed to give military help if the ruler joined India. Thus started the first war between India and Pakistan, which finally stopped in 1949 when the newly-formed United Nations Organization arranged a ceasefire. The Line of Control was established that has remained the de facto boundary between the Indian-controlled Kashmir and 'Azad' (Free) Jammu and Kashmir (but called Pakistan-occupied Kashmir by the Indians).
To affect a ceasefire, in 1948, India took the matter to the Security Council of the United Nations against Pakistan. As a result the Security Council passed three resolutions in 1948 and 1949 that also acknowledged the rights of the people of Kashmir about whose land the two countries were fighting. According to the resolutions, India and Pakistan were to hold a plebiscite in Kashmir so that the people could decide their own future. The Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru promised that the people of Jammu and Kashmir would gain independence when the peace was restored. After the end of the hostilities, he did not keep his word; neither were the terms of the resolutions ever fulfilled. The Indian government granted a special status to Kashmir that allowed more internal autonomy. This was thought to pacify the people when Kashmir's ruler joined India. But the promise to hold plebiscite was not kept and the successive Indian governments have adamantly held that Kashmir is an integral part of India, and all demands of the Kashmiri people for plebiscite or defying Indian occupation were presented as internal Indian matters. No third party was allowed to speak on behalf of the Kashmiri people or voice their legitimate demands under the UN Charter or the UN resolutions. Meanwhile India and Pakistan fought over Kashmir another war in 1965.
The grievances of Kashmiris had accumulated over the decades. Kashmiris challenged the legitimacy of the Indian occupation and in 1989 they started armed struggle to evict the occupiers. Mass arrests, disappearances and violence followed in the wake of the military crackdown. India deployed more than 500,000 soldiers to suppress the Kashmiri Muslims.
According to conservative accounts, Indian forces killed about 78,000 people and brutalized the whole population, but the Kashmiri sources put the number of those killed around 100,000. In this militant struggle, Kashmiri Hindu minority, the Pandits, also became the victims insurgents; according to the state government over 200,000 fled the valley. They sought refuge in Jammu and some fled to India. The conditions under which the Pandits have lived since their displacement have been deplorable. But it is heartening to see that all sections of Kashmiri Muslims and their leadership are now pleading for the return of their Hindu brothers to their homeland.
After 18 years of brutal military occupation, the Indian government was faced with a new situation. The Kashmir Jehad Council called for an end to armed struggle and instead appealed to all militant freedom-fighters to use only non-violent and peaceful means to achieve liberation from India. The call for Azadi (freedom) is getting louder which the Indian machine guns and their marauding forces are not able to drown. But the Indian rulers have shown little willingness to listen to the people and have kept a tight military stranglehold over the Kashmir Valley.
The Kashmir conflict has caused untold misery and destruction in Kashmir, both in life and property. It has also been the key cause of tension between India and Pakistan as rivals. The tremendous drain of resources incurred by the two countries on military buildup and arms-race including the acquisition of nuclear bombs is a result of their confrontation over Kashmir. The official propaganda each government has directed against the other created enmity, distrust and hatred in the respective populations of these countries against their "mortal enemy". This has gone on for over six decades and there is no end in sight. This has poisoned the minds of Indian and Pakistani people. As a result we see political polarization and perennial tensions amongst the people that stand in the way of settling the issues like Kashmir and the normalization of relations between the two neighbors. In addition, another ghastly development has been the rise of political and religious extremism in India and Pakistan.
The growth of religious and political extremism in India and Pakistan is not new. But what is new is the general acceptance of extremist tendencies in the social and political fabric of the two countries. The preachers and high priests of communalism and hatred influence the mainstream politics.
In India, some political parties have been closely allied with communalist militant political Hinduism or Hindutva. The Sangha Parivar is the umbrella organization for all Hindutva parties. The avowed aim of Hindutva has been to assert Hindu supremacy and Hindu communalism in India by identifying India with Hinduism and Hindu rule. Hindutva organizations are influenced by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) which stands for a Hindu majoritarian rule. The Bharatya Janata Party (BJP) is the leading political party of India that stands for Hindutva doctrine and Hinduising the entire country. Jawaharlal Nehru had once warned that if fascism would arrive in India, it would arrive in the form of majoritarian (Hindu) communalism. His words and warning were almost prophetic.
Of course, the main targets of Hindutva have been the Indian Muslims in the first place, followed by low-caste Hindus–formerly "Untouchables" (!) and now called Dalits–and Christians. Over 150-million Indian Muslims are a religious minority in India. Since the unfortunate circumstances that led to the partition of India in 1947, Indian Muslims have come under enormous pressure. They have gradually found themselves at the mercy of Hindus, politically marginalized and socially alienated in their own country. Even their national status and loyalties became suspect. They are "Muslims first", so how can they be "true Indians"? And, why are they in Hindu India anyway if they don't like India or complain about their lot in India? They can just pack up and go away. They are 'Pakistanis' and should migrate to their own country!
Such views and political developments in India have left Indian Muslims in an extremely difficult situation. In 1992, Hindu militants destroyed the sixteenth-century Babri Mosque in Ayodhya while the state authorities stood idle by. The then Indian prime minister promised to re-build the mosque. The promise was not kept. Instead a temple was raised on the site of the destroyed mosque that provoked religious frenzy and communal passions. Three thousand people, mostly Muslims, were killed in the ensuing riots.
Two thousand Muslims were massacred in 12002 in Gujarat, which was a full blooded pogrom which took place under the state government run by the BJP. The New Delhi rulers did not intervene to stop the massacre of Muslims.
Attacks on Muslim holy places and people have increased in recent years. In one attack by Hindutva activists on a mosque a Hindu lieutenant-colonel of the Indian army was arrested for his involvement in the attack.
In Pakistan, fundamentalist religious parties have felt duty-bound to monopolize Islam, but they have never at any time gained much support in the masses. Their poor electoral results in various elections have clearly demonstrated that. However, Pakistani Muslim clerics have gained much notoriety for their inter-religious invective. The Sunni preachers direct their anger at the "infidel" Shias and the Shia preachers reciprocate by calling the Sunnis "infidels"! This leads to an unending cycle of violence and acrimony in the name of Islam. But the danger posed by militant Islamist groups in stirring violence and hatred is beyond doubt. However, the Indian treatment of the Kashmiri Muslims and the unresolved Kashmir issue because of Indian intransigence is universally condemned by all Pakistanis; it also provides an opportunity to the militant groups like Lasher-e-Taiba and others who exhort their followers to avenge the grievances of their Indian co-religionists at the hands of Hindutva militants as well as to make a stand for the freedom of Kashmir by all means, including violence. This is exactly what happened two years ago in the Mumbai attacks.
For the last six decades India has maintained its occupation of the Kashmir Valley by political manipulation and brutal military force. The massacres of the Kashmiri Muslims by Indian forces amount to war crimes under international law; however, the ultimate responsibility for this genocidal policy lies with the New Delhi rulers. If the Indian government wants to continue with the occupation of Kashmir and also expect that people of Kashmir will forego their demands for freedom because they face a great military and economic power like India, which has extended its cooperation with other imperialist powers like America and Zionist Israel, then one thing is certain: the situation will get worse; violence and terror will flourish.
The 10-million Muslims of the Kashmir Valley want independence from Indian colonial rule and oppression. The best course left for India is to make a break with its previous policy, and accede to the right to self-determination of the Kashmiris. This will not weaken India; instead, it will show the strength of Indian democracy as well of the humane aspects of Indian cultural tradition.
Whether the people of the Kashmir Valley decide to join India or Pakistan or opt for full independence should be for them to decide. No matter what decision they make to determine their future as stipulated by the UN resolutions, it should be theirs and theirs alone. It is far from certain that they will choose to join Pakistan, but if they do so, that should not worry India. In such a case, Hindu Jammu and Buddhist Ladakh will certainly join India. Thus, by a wise and courageous step, Indian leaders can create the political conditions under which a new era of good neighborly relations between India and Pakistan can materialize if they allow the people of the Kashmir Valley to control their own destiny, instead of the inhumane treatment and humiliation at the hands of the Indian state and its armed forces. Once the main bone of contention between India and Pakistan is removed, then the two former rivals and "enemies" can become friends and concentrate on socio-economic problems of their people within a peaceful atmosphere. An independent and self-governing entity in the Kashmir Valley will bring hope and good-will to its neighbors. By removing the biggest unresolved problem of Kashmir that has fuelled hostility and has caused immeasurable damage, the two countries will also be able to contain the forces of communalism and religious fanaticism that plague India and Pakistan.

Children's Privacy Policy
Our Policy
This privacy policy in regard to children under the age of 13 ("Children's Privacy Policy") relates to the website at www.mindsnacks.com and also to our mobile app (collectively, the "Services"). The Services are provided by MindSnacks, Inc. ("MindSnacks" or "we" or "us") located at 1479 Folsom Street, San Francisco, CA 94103, ATTENTION: Legal Department, email email@example.com. This Children's Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into the Terms of Service , and all terms shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Terms of Service.
MindSnacks cares about the online privacy of children, and therefore encourages parents and legal guardians to become involved in the online activities of their children and to discuss the child's use of the Internet and disclosure of information to any parties.
As it relates to children's privacy, MindSnacks develops two types of mobile apps:
1) The first is designed specifically for children under the age of 13, and includes, at this time, our Kids' Vocabulary app. Apps of this type do not collect personally identifiable data of any form, nor do they require the creation of user accounts.
2) All other apps are general-audience apps designed for users 13 years of age or older. Full use of these apps requires the creation of user accounts and therefore the collection and submission of personally identifiable data. As stated in our Terms of Service, users under the age of 13 should not register for these apps.
If we obtain actual knowledge that a user of this second category of mobile apps is under 13 years old (for example through a survey or customer support email), MindSnacks acts according to the directives set by The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). For general-audience apps where MindSnacks obtains actual knowledge that a user is under 13 years old, COPPA requires that website operators adhere to specific guidelines regarding the collection and handling of personally identifiable information about these children under the age of 13. For more information about COPPA and your child's rights to online privacy, visit the Children's Privacy section of the FTC's website here.
COPPA requires that website operators provide parents with certain information and obtain parental consent prior to permitting children under the age of 13 to access or continue accessing Services that collect personally identifiable information.
A. What types of information do we collect about children?
1) Children can view content on our website without any personally identifiable data being collected.
2) During the registration process for our Kids' Vocabulary app, we collect a username, but no email or password. We do not collect email addresses of children under the age of 13 (or of any other users of our child-directed apps).
3) During the registration process for our general audience mobile apps, we collect a user's email address and password. Our Terms of Service states that children under the age of 13 should not register for our general audience mobile apps, and these general audience apps are not directed toward children under the age of 13.
All of our apps receive and store personally non-identifiable information. Such information, which is collected passively using various technologies, cannot presently be used to specifically identify a user or track his or her behavior across sites or apps.
B. How do we use and share the personally identifiable information that we have collected about children after receiving parental consent?
1) In general, we do not share personal information with third parties. That said, MindSnacks occasionally contracts with third parties that provide support for the internal operations of the Service. These contracted third parties do not use or disclose personal information except for the limited support role for which they have been contracted, examples of which are set forth below. In the rare event that we do possess personal information about children, we will not share it with these third parties unless we have Parental Consent as outlined by COPPA.
1a) To personalize communications from MindSnacks to a child (such as news and updates), we may use the child's name, or the email address of the child's parent or guardian. MindSnacks may, from time to time, contract with third parties to perform these communication services on its behalf and may disclose a child's information to such third parties. In addition, personal information regarding a child may be disclosed in the course of a child's participation in certain interactive features such as message boards.
1b) MindSnacks may also, from time to time, disclose a child's information to affiliates or to third parties it has contracted with to perform certain services on its behalf or to administer certain member benefits.
Except as otherwise disclosed in this Policy, we do not share any information about a child with any affiliated entity or with any third parties unless the disclosure is reasonably necessary: to comply with law, including, for example, to comply with a court order or subpoena; to enforce our Terms of Use or Service rules; or to protect the safety and security of our guests and our Services.
C. How do we notify and obtain consent from parents for the collection of information from a child?
Where MindSnacks obtains actual knowledge that a child under the age of 13 seeks to use any Service that collects Personal Data or otherwise volunteers Personal Data to us, we require the child's parent to consent to this Children's Privacy Policy, our Terms of Use and our more general Privacy Policy by the use of an email verification system, described below. This information is retained by us as evidence that we received parental consent.
D. How can parents access, change or delete personally identifiable information about their child?
At any time parents can refuse to permit us to collect further personally identifiable data from their child and can request that any personally identifiable data we have collected be deleted from our records. Parents can access, change, or delete the personally identifiable data that we have collected from their child by contacting our customer service at email@example.com. Please include the e-mail address associated with the account so that we can better assist you with your inquiry or request.
E. How will we notify parents if our Children's Privacy Policy changes?
We may amend our Children's Privacy Policy at any time. We will provide parents notice by e-mail of any material changes in the way we intend to collect, use, and/or share a child's personal information. Please note that, at all times, parents should update their personal information to provide us current e-mail addresses. We will apply material changes in our Children's Privacy Policy only in conformance with applicable law, including any applicable provisions of COPPA that require parental consent.
F. Who do parents contact with questions?
If you need further assistance, please contact us at:MindSnacks, Inc.
ATTN: Legal Department
1479 Folsom Street
San Francisco, CA 94103
You may also telephone us at (415) 400-4626 or email us at email@example.com. (If you are not 18 years of age or older, you must have your parent or guardian's permission to call this number.)
MindSnacks' child-directed app (viz. Kids' Vocab) does not collect personally identifiable data. Because we do not collect personally identifiable data, COPPA does not require us to collect consent from a parent or legal guardian -- nor could we since we do not collect the relevant contact information.
Where MindSnacks obtains actual knowledge that a child under 13 has or seeks to provide us with Personal Data, such as an email address, MindSnacks will seek parental consent in accordance with COPPA. Where MindSnacks has email information for the child's parent or guardian, MindSnacks will send an email to that parent or guardian's email address. Among other things, this email will contain links to our Children's Privacy Policy, our Terms of Service, and our more general Privacy Policy. If no email address has been provided for the parent or guardian, an email reply will be sent to the child's address, seeking online contact information of the parent so that we can contact the parent in accordance with COPPA and this Children's Privacy Policy. The email to the parent or legal guardian will inform that individual that a child has contacted MindSnacks and identified that individual as a parent or legal guardian. If the child has an account with MindSnacks, the email will explain that unless we receive the parent or legal guardian's explicit consent within 14 days, we will delete the child's contact information as well as his or her MindSnacks account. The parent or legal guardian may indicate or revoke consent via a simple return message. If the parent or legal guardian revokes consent, we will similarly delete the child's contact information as well as his or her MindSnacks account. COPPA requires us to send a second confirmation email after a reasonable time delay; the parent or legal guardian can indicate or revoke consent in the same manner as the first email. If a parent or legal guardian has any questions, please contact our customer support team at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Nokia's Turnaround Fouled by Feature Phone Fail
Two years after leaping from its burning platform, Nokia continues to swim against powerful currents. While the company's smartphone business shows continued signs of improvement, uncertainties emerging around its feature phone business are raising questions about its ability to pull off a promised turnaround.
In its first quarter, Nokia shipped 5.6 million Lumia smartphones, 27 percent more than it shipped the quarter prior. The company expects to sell some seven million in its second quarter. That's respectable sales acceleration in a market that's 90 percent controlled by the Apple-Google duopoly. So, good news.
Sadly for Nokia, there's some bad news to go along with it. The company suffered a decline in feature phone sales during the first quarter — a contraction so nasty that there was no way rising Lumia sales could offset it. Nokia sold 55.8 million feature phones in the quarter, down from 70.8 million a year earlier, putting them at their lowest level in at least a decade.
A brutal drop, and one that presents quite a conundrum for the struggling Nokia. The company's turnaround hinges not just on the success of its high-end Lumia smartphone line, but on the continued success of an old cash cow — its feature phone business.
That business is essential to competing in the emerging markets that will be key to its future growth. As Nokia CEO Stephen Elop said during the company's Thursday earnings call, "Our mobile phones business faces a difficult competitive environment, and we are taking tactical actions and bringing new innovation to market to address our challenges."
Better sooner than later. If this erosion of feature phone sales continues, it will threaten the progress Nokia's making with its smartphone business.

3 arrested in home-invasion robbery, assault
Police arrested three people after a man was assaulted during a home invasion robbery in Greensboro on Saturday night.
Investigators said two women and a man broke in through a window of the victim's apartment in the 100 block of N. Park Drive and demanded money and drugs about 8:47 p.m. Saturday.
Police said the victim was struck in the head and face with a blunt object during the robbery.
The robbers took the man's wallet, credit cards, iPhone and and undisclosed amount of cash, police said.
Police said they found one of the robbers inside the apartment. Two other suspects were arrested nearby.
Investigators identified the suspects as Bryant Dalrymple, 30, Jessica Lopez, 25, and Heather Valdez, 27.
All three were charged with conspiracy to commit robbery, robbery, assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury with intent to kill, first-degree burglary and possession of stolen property.
The victim was taken to Moses Cone Hospital and treated for injuries that were not considered to be life threatening.

All News Releases By Date
Statement on Pavillion, Wyoming groundwater investigation
Release Date: 03/08/2012
Contact Information: Richard Mylott, USEPA Region 8, 303-312-6654; Renny MacKay, State of Wyoming, 307-777-7437; Eastern Shoshone Business Council 307-332-3532; Northern Arapaho Business Council, 307-332-6120
Following recent discussions, Wyoming Governor Matthew H. Mead, the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes, and U.S. EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson issued the following statement about groundwater issues in the area east of Pavillion, Wyoming:
We believe that collaboration and use of the best available science are critical in meeting the needs of Pavillion area residents and resolving longstanding issues surrounding the safety of drinking water and groundwater.
The State of Wyoming is committed to providing the citizens with a long-term source of safe drinking water and the EPA commends the State for its commitment. The Agency will work with the State, the Tribes and the rural community east of Pavillion to find the long-term and affordable drinking water solution.
The EPA, the State of Wyoming, and the Tribes recognize that further sampling of the deep monitoring wells drilled for the Agency's groundwater study is important to clarify questions about the initial monitoring results. The EPA will partner with the State and the United States Geological Survey (USGS), in collaboration with the Tribes, to complete this sampling as soon as possible and will collaborate with the State and other stakeholders in designing the sampling methodology, the quality assurance plan, and other features of the next phase of testing.
In order to ensure that the results of this next phase of testing are available for the peer review process, to which the Agency has committed, the EPA has agreed to delay convening the peer review panel on the draft Pavillion report until a report containing the USGS data is publicly available. The State of Wyoming and the Tribes appreciate this decision. In the meantime, EPA's draft report will continue to be open to public comment.
Together with the Tribes, the EPA and the State will convene a group of stakeholders and experts to develop and carry out a plan for further investigation of the Pavillion gas field to identify potential risks to drinking water, including possible sources and pathways for the migration of contaminants. Additional research will be conducted collaboratively using the highest scientific standards and will be subjected to independent peer review.
We are committed to ensuring the peer review process is conducted with maximum transparency and the highest level of scientific integrity.

The Year In Research On Market-Based Education Reform: 2012 Edition
** Reprinted here [1] in the Washington Post
2012 was another busy year for market-based education reform. The rapid proliferation [2] of charter schools continued, while states and districts went about the hard work of designing and implementing new teacher evaluations [3] that incorporate student testing data, and, in many cases, performance pay programs to go along with them.
As in previous years (see our 2010 [4] and 2011 [5] reviews), much of the research on these three "core areas" – merit pay, charter schools, and the use of value-added and other growth models in teacher evaluations – appeared rather responsive to the direction of policy making, but could not always keep up with its breakneck pace.*
Some lag time is inevitable, not only because good research takes time, but also because there's a degree to which you have to try things before you can see how they work. Nevertheless, what we don't know about these policies far exceeds what we know, and, given the sheer scope and rapid pace of reforms over the past few years, one cannot help but get the occasional "flying blind" feeling. Moreover, as is often the case, the only unsupportable position is certainty.
In the area of merit pay, there was one large-scale program evaluation released in 2012: Mathematica's final report [6] on the four-year evaluation of the Chicago Teacher Advancement Program (TAP). TAP is a multifaceted program that provides bonuses, career ladders, training, and other interventions for teachers in order to improve their performance and retention. The findings were somewhat mixed. Consistent with prior research (see here [7] and here [8]), the Mathematica team did not find any discernible effects on testing outcomes over this (relatively short) period, but there did appear to be some impact on school-level teacher retention.**
However, most of the action in 2012 was a bunch of papers that might be interpreted as attempts to understand and/or address teacher incentive programs' failure [9] to produce results in the U.S.
One example, which received a fair amount of attention [10], was this evaluation [11], by Roland Fryer, Steven Levitt, and colleagues. In this program, teachers were paid a bonus at the beginning of the year, with some forced to return a portion of it based on their students' progress on tests. This kind of incentive, called "loss aversion," had a large impact among teachers in the treatment group. Although this finding is genuinely interesting from a research perspective, and definitely merits further attention, its policy implications are still less than apparent. To their credit, merit pay proponents seemed to recognize this.
A second working paper [12] assessed incentive strength in a group-based program. Based on the idea that rewarding larger groups of teachers decreases the incentive for each individual teacher (essentially, a free-rider problem), the analysis found that impacts were slightly larger (in math, reading and social studies, but not science) for teachers who were "responsible" for larger groups of students. This, the authors speculate, may be one reason why schoolwide bonus programs (e.g., New York's [13]) haven't produced results.
Finally, a conference paper [14] using data from a schoolwide bonus program in North Carolina found that schools that just missed the cut in one year tended to exhibit large gains the following year, relative to schools that came in just above the threshold. The researchers hypothesize that this suggests teachers and administrators may respond to incentives when they receive a clear signal that rewards are possible, but that a "period of learning" may be required before these programs exhibit impacts.
On the whole, these studies (also see this paper [15]) would seem to suggest, unsurprisingly, that teachers and administrators do respond to incentives, but not necessarily those embedded in the "traditional" models (e.g., individual bonuses for scores at the end of the year). However, most of the new merit pay policies rely heavily on the "traditional" conceptualization (from which supporters inexplicably seem to be expecting [16] short-term testing gains), and, again, the actual policy applications of these recent findings, if any, remain unclear.
Thus, predictably, merit pay ends the year in roughly the same situation as it started. Proponents contend that the primary purpose of alternative compensation systems is less to compel effort than to attract "better candidates" to the profession, and keep them around. From this perspective, it is unlikely [17] that we will see much in the way of strong evidence – for or against –for quite some time, and short-term testing gains may not be the most appropriate outcome by which to assess these policies (see this simulation [18] from this year, as well as our discussion [19] of it). In other words, merit pay remains, to no small extent, a leap of faith.
Moving on to the charter school area, 2012 was another year of extremely rapid growth in this sector. It may also represent a turning point in the direction of research on these schools.***
In contrast to previous years, very few of the analyses released employed the typical charter versus district "horse race" approach. The only notable exceptions were two CREDO reports. Their analysis [20] of New Jersey's small charter school sector found that the charters included had a significant positive impact vis-à-vis comparable regular public schools, though it appeared largely confined to a small group of Newark schools. Similarly, the CREDO team's evaluation [21] of Indiana charters also found statistically significant, though rather modest positive effects statewide, mostly concentrated in Indianapolis.
Although such "horse race" studies were scarce this year, a Mathematica report [22] addressed the methodological question of whether results from experimental evaluations of charter school impacts "match up" with those from non-experimental treatments. This is important because most charter research relies on non-experimental methods (since experiments generally require lotteries). This report (following others [23]) put forth the encouraging result that the experimental and non-experimental estimates were not particularly different, at least not enough to substantially alter the conclusions. We discussed this paper here [24].
There was also some progress in building the growing and arguably most important body of evidence – analyses that attempt to move beyond the "charter versus district" debate, and begin to identify the actual differences between more and less successful schools, of whatever type.
One contentious variation on this question is whether charter schools "cream" higher-performing students, and/or "push out" lower-performing students, in order to boost their results. Yet another Mathematica supplement [25] to their 2010 report examining around 20 KIPP middle schools was released, addressing criticisms that KIPP admits students with comparatively high achievement levels, and that the students who leave are lower-performing than those who stay. This report found little evidence to support either claim (also take a look at our post [26] on attrition and charters).
A related analysis, this one presented in a conference paper [27] (opens in Word), found that low-performing students in a large anonymous district did not exit charters at a discernibly higher rate than their counterparts in regular public schools. On the flip side of the entry/exit equation, this working paper [28] found that students who won charter school lotteries (but had not yet attended the charter) saw immediate "benefits" in the form of reduced truancy rates, an interesting demonstration of the importance of student motivation.
A couple of papers also looked at more concrete policies employed by charters. Most notably, a joint report [29] from Mathematica and the Center for Reinventing Public Education focused on practices among charter management organizations (CMOs). A previous report [30] by the same team, released in 2010, found that the charter schools run by these CMOs were, on the whole, comparable in terms of test-based performance to their regular public school counterparts, even though the sample consisted of more established organizations (which one might expect to do well).
Among the many findings presented in this useful follow-up were that the higher-performing CMOs included in the analysis were more likely to provide teacher coaching and performance pay, and that they offered, on average, more instructional time (also take a look at this initial set of findings [31] from CREDO about the performance trajectory of new charter schools).
So, 2012 saw no major "bombshells" in the charter school literature – and that may be a good thing, since focus may be shifting to the important, albeit unsexy task of drilling down into mechanisms underlying the overall results. In a time of unprecedented charter proliferation, explaining the consistently inconsistent performance of these schools is critical, not only for guiding the authorization of new charters, but also, more importantly, for improving all schools, regardless of their governance structures.
In the third and final area of market-based reform – the use of value-added and other growth model estimates in teacher evaluations – 2012 might be remembered as the year in which a second batch of teacher-level value-added scores were published in a major newspaper. These consisted of the "teacher data reports" from New York City. As in Los Angeles in 2010, the publication provoked opposition among value-added supporters and opponents alike. We discussed and analyzed the data in this post [32] (also see here [33]).
But, in terms of actual original research, we'll begin with the paper that received more attention than most any other in recent years: The analysis [34] of the long-term impacts of teachers, by economists Raj Chetty, John Friedman, and Jonah Rockoff (the paper was actually released very late in 2011). The enormous reaction to this working paper focused mostly on the finding that increases in estimated teacher effectiveness are associated with very small improvements in a wide variety of future student outcomes, including earnings, college attendance, and teenage pregnancy.
It is fair to say that these findings, in addition to being genuinely interesting and important from a research perspective, support the long-standing contention that value-added estimates do transmit some meaningful signal about teacher performance, and might play a role in teacher evaluations (though not necessarily the role that they're being called upon to play).
Another part of the paper, which got comparatively little attention, was arguably just as significant from a policy perspective - the results addressing the question of whether the non-random assignment of students to classrooms biases value-added estimates. That is, whether some teachers are assigned students based on characteristics that are associated with testing performance, but are not captured by the models (see Jesse Rothstein's highly influential articles on this – here [35] and here [36]).
Chetty, Friedman, and Rockoff devise a clever test for this bias, and find that the problem does not appear to be critical (also check out this earlier response [37] to Rothstein). In addition, they provide a very easy way for states to test their own estimates for this bias, using data that are widely available. It is unclear whether any states have chosen to do so, however. You can read our discussion of the Chetty et al. paper here [38].
The issue of non-random assignment of students to classrooms, and its potential influence on value-added scores, was also the focus of this 2012 CALDER paper [39], which questioned the validity of the "Rothstein test," and found that it might identify non-random sorting even when none exists (also see this conference paper [40], which concluded that principals do assign students in non-random ways, and that the extent of sorting varies within and between schools). On the whole, it is likely that non-random sorting does bias teacher value-added scores, but the magnitude of this bias - and how it compares with that of alternative performance measures - remains a somewhat open question.
Other analyses in the value-added area also continued to move toward the kind of concrete, policy-relevant research that might have guided the design of new evaluation systems. For instance, one big issue facing states is the choice of a model. Although the public discourse tends to portray value-added models as a kind of monolith, there are actually a bunch of different specifications, many of which are not actually value-added models per se (value-added models, which themselves come in different forms, are generally considered to be a specific type of growth model; other types, such as student growth percentile models [41], are also being used by states and districts). Thus, analyses of how results differ between models are quite important.
A working paper [42] from the Center for Education Data and Research (CEDR) compared the results of different models using North Carolina data, and found relatively high correlations between most of the models tested, including the more common types being used in actual evaluations systems. There was, however, a much lower correlation between these and more complex models (in particular, those employing fixed effects), and, in all cases, differences in the compositions of classrooms influenced the results of these comparisons (also see this similar analysis [43] from this year).
In other "nuts and bolts" papers, Mathematica researchers laid down some statistical techniques [44] for handling the important issue of co-teaching, while this NBER working paper [45] presented a practical method for handling test measurement error among students who take tests in three consecutive grades. On an even more basic level, a team from the University of Wisconsin simulated [46] the potentially serious problems that might arise from simple "clerical errors" in the datasets used to calculate value-added.
It's difficult to assess the degree to which states and districts are addressing or considering issues such as error and model choice, but, in at least some cases [47], it's not clear that they're getting much attention at all.
Another area that is under-researched (and related to the non-random assignment issue discussed above) is value-added among high school teachers. One potentially important NBER working paper [48] released this year found that high school teachers' estimates may have serious problems, particularly those stemming from tracking. The author, C. Kirabo Jackson, offers two possible interpretations: either high school teachers are not as influential (in terms of test-based impacts) as elementary school teachers; or value-added is a poor tool for measuring the effectiveness of high school teachers. (Also see this extremely interesting 2012 working paper [49], by the same author, comparing teachers' impact on cognitive and non-cognitive outcomes.)
Finally, a number of new analyses tackled the important, much-discussed issue of the stability of value-added estimates. First, using a dataset spanning a full ten years, a CALDER working paper [50] found considerable volatility, but also some persistence, in teachers' value-added scores, even over that very long time period. A second analysis [51] (opens in Word) concluded that the precision and year-to-year stability of teachers' value-added scores varied considerably by the types of the students they had in their classes.
Third, this CEDR paper [52] looked at stability, not across years, but rather between subjects. This is actually a somewhat under-researched topic, despite its obvious implications for using these estimates in accountability systems. In short, the authors found that the between-subject correlations are similar to those between years – modest.
Overall, then, there was a great deal of strong research on value-added and other growth models this year, much of which can inform (or, at least, could have informed) the design of teacher evaluations. In the end, though, the real test will be whether the new systems improve teacher and student outcomes.
There is one more 2012 publication worth mentioning in this area, which consists of a series [53] of five "background papers" on value-added, published by the Carnegie Knowledge Network. Each deals with a different aspect of these estimates, and all are written by prominent researchers, who present the state of the research in a manner that is quite accessible to non-technical readers. They are an excellent resource.*****
So, 2012 was a year in which the research on charter schools, merit pay, and value-added continued to provide policy-relevant findings, even if, in some cases, the decisions this evidence might have guided had already been made. The next few years will be critical, as researchers monitor and evaluate the sweeping policy changes that have taken place, particularly new evaluation systems and the financial incentives that accompany them. It remains to be seen whether states and districts will be willing or able to adjust course accordingly.
- Matt Di Carlo
* Needless to say, these three areas are not the only types of policies that might fall under a "market-based" umbrella (they are, however, arguably the "core" components, at least in terms of how often they're discussed by advocates and proposed by policy makers). In addition, the papers discussed here do not represent a comprehensive list of all the research in these areas during 2012. It is a selection of high-quality, mostly quantitative analyses, all of which were actually released during this year (i.e., this review doesn't include papers released in prior years, and published in 2012). This means that many of the papers above have not yet been subject to peer review, and should be interpreted with that in mind.
** There was also some initial evidence on the impacts of Denver's ProComp program, which, like TAP, provides different types of incentives and opportunities for teachers. A non-experimental evaluation [54] from the Center for Education Data and Research (CEDR) found some tentative indication that the program may improve test-based outcomes, though it was not possible to rule out the possibility that this was due to other factors (also see our post [55], by researcher Ellie Fulbeck, who took a look at ProComp's effects on retention).
*** Given the volume of studies, this review does not include other types of school choice policies, such as vouchers. Those interested might check out this Brookings analysis [56] of New York City's voucher program's effect on graduation outcomes; as well as the summary [57] of final reports on Milwaukee's school choice program.
**** The scarce evidence [58], thus far, suggests that the handful of charter models that get fairly consistent positive results are those utilizing a somewhat "blunt force" approach – more money, more time, more staff, and more rigid disciplinary policies.
***** Though not discussed in this review, it's worth noting that there was a great deal of 2012 research about expanding the policy applications of value-added models into additional areas. Most notably, there were several analyses of principals' impact on testing outcomes (see here [59] and here [60]), as well as a few important papers (here [61], here [62], and here [63], for example) about the potential for using these methods to estimate the effectiveness of teacher preparation programs.

First off, I'd like to point out that I was pretty much dead on with my predictions in this past Sunday's filibuster. Verlander started the game. Prince won the derby. Cabrera won the MVP (Melky, not Miguel but still…). And Mr. Lung, although he may not have done so in public, disagreed with me and was soundly spanked (much like a typical Saturday night in Mr. Lung's love life).
Despite all the brilliance flowing from the pages of RSBS I'm sure that some people out there are trying to find fault with this performance, especially as a result of Verlander's performance. Number one, shut up. Number two, this is exactly why the All-Star Game shouldn't count towards anything of importance.
That being said, I'd like to go back to Verlander's "debacle" and take a new look at it in light of recent scientific input. Yes, it's probably fair to say that Verlander melted down but as the article points out, when the speed of the ball is approaching the ridiculous speeds at which Verlander throws, well, friction leads to uncontrollable fusion which leads to nuclear mayhem. We're just lucky that only Verlander imploded and didn't take the rest of the stadium with him.

#IWCBluedial: a design trend from schaffhausen is taking the watch world by storm
About 50 years ago, IWC Schaffhausen created watches with blue dials. In doing so, the watchmaker from north-east Switzerland set off a design trend. Find out more.

IWC has over 50 years' experience in the development and production of professional diver's watches – for those who love the challenge of exploring the ocean depths.
Design Highlights
The patented IWC bracelet quick-change system for the Aquatimer collection makes changing from a steel bracelet to a rubber strap or vice versa quick and simple. The bracelet is pushed into the locking bar from the top and engages audibly. It is released by pressing the lever on the underside of the strap outwards with the thumb and pushing the bracelet up.
Design Highlights
The sealing system offers effective protection against water, dust and other external influences. With water-resistance to 3 bar, the watch can be worn when swimming, and at 6 bar it will have no problem with snorkelling. Diver's watches with a water-resistance of 12 to 20 bar are professional measuring instruments designed for scuba-diving. Special diver's watches that are water-resistant to 100 or 200 bar are suitable even for deep-sea diving.
Design Highlights
In order to resurface safely, divers must always know exactly how long their dive has taken. The Aquatimer diver's watches feature green and blue Super-LumiNova® luminescent coatings to ensure that the wearer is able to easily read the time underwater – and to greatly facilitate quick orientation on the dial in adverse visibility conditions. *IWC Schaffhausen is not the owner of the Super-LumiNova® trademark.
As diving as a sport grows during the 1960s, IWC reacts to this development with the launch of its first diver's watch, the "Aquatimer". Its case is watertight down to a depth of 200 metres, and the rotatable bezel for adjusting the diving time is situated under the glass to prevent it being moved accidentally during the dive.
In March of 1968, the successor model, Reference 816AD/1816 was launched. Its distinctive feature were the colourful dials: a red or a blue shadow, as well as a traditional black one. It was also water resistant to 30 atmospheres.
The cooperation between Porsche and IWC lasted from 1978 until 1998 and resulted in a revolutionary new material for watchmaking: titanium. In 1982 the Porsche Design Ocean 2000 with its epoch-making design was launched. This diver's watch could withstand high pressures down to a record depth of 2000m due to its construction and the use of titanium alloy.
The Reference 3519 is a non-magnetic watch designed for mine clearance divers. This watch needed to have a minimal magnetic field to prevent it from detonating the mines that the divers were defusing. It was therefore equipped with a special movement made from a non-magnetic material: the IWC 3755AM calibre, also known as the IWC 3755 Amag calibre.
The GST Aquatimer, Reference 3536, was a classic diving watch. With a large diameter of 42 mm, it was available in steel or titanium, with either a bracelet or a Velcro strap. It also was water resistant to a great depth of 2000 meters. In addition, it was notable for its clean, no-nonsense design and particularly, its bezel.
A very special diving watch was introduced in 1999: the Reference 3527, called the "Deep One". It was the product of an especially clever watchmaking and engineering design. Powered by the IWC Calibre 8914, the watch included a unique complication. The Deep One had a mechanical depth gauge that showed the diver how deep he had descended.
In 2004 IWC produced a world's first movement: the Aquatimer Minute Memory, Reference IW3723. This model has a minute rattrapante chronograph which allows elapsed time to be told in three ways: by way of the internal bezel, with the chronograph or via the patented minute fly-back hand. This is useful in determining intermediary elapsed time while diving.
In 2009 the new Aquatimer family featured increased case dimensions of 46 mm, and featured the rotating diving bezel, now located externally. A 4-mm wide sapphire crystal ring lies above a thick layer of Super-LumiNova®* luminous pigment applied in six coats, so the luminescence and legibility are optimal under all conditions of visibility. *IWC Schaffhausen is not the owner of the Super-LumiNova® trademark.
In 2014, IWC re-launched the Aquatimer. A star of the new collection was the Aquatimer Chronograph Edition "Expedition Charles Darwin". The first watch in IWC's history with a bronze case also featured the newly developed SafeDive system which prevents inadvertent changes of the dive time.
The Aquatimer Deep Three's mechanical depth gauge displayed the wearer's current depth and the maximum depth on a given dive at the same time. With this timepiece, IWC continued the tradition of mechanical depth gauge watches that was started with the GST Deep One in 1999.
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of its diver's watches, in 2017 IWC introduced the Aquatimer Perpetual Calendar Digital Date-Month Edition "50 Years Aquatimer" – the first wristwatch with a case made from Ceratanium®. This newly developed material combines the lightness of titanium with the hardness of ceramics.
#IWCBluedial: a design trend from schaffhausen is taking the watch world by storm
About 50 years ago, IWC Schaffhausen created watches with blue dials. In doing so, the watchmaker from north-east Switzerland set off a design trend. Find out more.

The Aquatimer Chronograph Edition "Sharks" with a special hammerhead shark engraving on the back is bundled with a copy of Michael Muller's book "Sharks".

Roller Coosters
The mail carrier brought such a treat this week: a letter from Lala! Love her 3-year-old penmanship.
I turned her letter over to see what a roller cooster might be:
Actually, when I went back and took a closer look at her letter, I realized that she had attached a little tail to the second "o" in "cooster," so it probably really says, "coaster." But I think "cooster" is pretty cute, so I'm sticking with that for now.
It never ceases to amaze (and embarrass) me when I see how many of my grandchildren are able to read and write before they ever reach kindergarten. I do not remember teaching my children to read before they started school. Some of them could write a little, and I do remember teaching them to make letters by drawing dotted lines in the shape of letters for them to trace over, but nothing like a whole letter like this, written without any dotted lines. Katie said she did help Olivia with the spelling, but Olivia actually held the pen and wrote the whole letter herself. And addressed the envelope. And drew the roller cooster.
(Just for the record, all of my children did graduate from high school in spite of having a pre-K slacker mother.)
I have an early childhood memory of "writing" of my own. I was probably about Olivia's age. I was sitting at the dining room table, across from my mother, who was writing her weekly letter to my paternal grandmother. Mind you, my mother did not get along very well with her mother-in-law, but she was a good daughter-in-law, and she wrote a letter to my father's parents every week. I remember sitting at the table while my mother wrote, with a pen in my hand and a piece of paper in front of me. I remember making whole lines of looped "l"s - lower-case cursive-type l's. Or maybe they were e's. I remember thinking "Whoa, I'm writing!" and simultaneously knowing that I was only pretending, not really writing. Not like Olivia (or Arora, or Abbi, or Katie, or Seth, or Becca, or...).
I guess kids today are just a whole lot smarter!
(And, of course, they have brilliant parents.)
An Unwelcome Guest
Mark and I have a pretty set routine in the mornings. One of us hops in the shower while the other one heads downstairs to get breakfast started. A week or so ago, I ran across this fellow, making his way from the dining room to the kitchen.
Mark and I can't figure out how he got inside the house in the first place. Our house is generally pretty bug-free, except for the occasional swarm of fruit flies in the summer. (Except, of course, for a couple of memorable yellow jacket infestations in long-ago summers...those are stories that will have to wait for a future post...)
Mark thought maybe he rode in on one of our shoes, but that just didn't make sense to me. Could he have come in all the way through the sump drain into the basement, and then all the way from the basement into the kitchen? That would be quite a hike for a little critter.
I've lived in the house nearly 34 years, and this is the first time I've ever had a slug in my kitchen. Maybe he's a harbinger of climate change??
Time will tell...and in the meantime I'm not walking barefoot in a dark kitchen!

Your morning roundup for May 29, the day after death told the world that the puffy-faced Grandma Bandit was actually a man.
What we watched: Last night, Game Seven of the Eastern Conference finals lived up to the expectations that season-deciding ice wars should. It's difficult to craft an argument that the Bruins didn't deserve to win it. They did.
That it happened with a relatively unstoppable Nathan Horton shot with 7:03 left in a penalty-free contest, affording the visiting Lightning ample opportunity to save their season before a sofa-king DJ queued up a Journey track, was fair and just. They wasn't robbed (though I started spouting conspiracy theories about Boston's Ed-Asner-in-waiting coach throwing extra sticks on the ice in the waning seconds to save his fleshy hide).
That that goal occurred with Steven Stamkos on the ice 22 minutes of game time after a slap shot minced his nose bones, thus justifying the hockey players as Battle of Falkirk warriors angle, may not have been fair and just. But neither is hockey.
Sure, the Lightning don't have a shot to be the next American team to prevent the Stanley Cup from returning to Canada, but hockey fans will remember that Tampa goalkeeper Dwayne Roloson played his fucking tits off last night. And sometimes, temporarily entering the game's lore is better than advancing to play the role of first American team to let the Stanley Cup return to Canada since the 1992-3 L.A. Kings.
In closing, here's some Dan Shaughnessy poetry:
Imagine. A guy named Horton breaks a 0-0 tie in the 53d minute of play and sends his team to the Stanley Cup finals. Anyone want to invest in Nathan Horton's Donuts?
What we're watching: The two best club teams in the world face one another at Wembley for the right to call themselves the UEFA Champions League kings. Barcelona is artistry on grass. When they're at their best, it's an honor to watch them play. Manchester United is a garden in which endless British-tabloid cover heds bloom. They're also pretty much the only team that has a shot to take Barca down. (Hush now, Arsenal fans, and enjoy your off-season).
No, that the match will be played at Wembley (coverage at 2 p.m. eastern on Fox) doesn't make it an Man U home game. And no, the fact that a volcano cloud made Barca push their arrival up a few days, thus requiring a shift in lodging, won't make a damn bit of difference. Nor will the fact that the blaugrana prevailed in the 2009 rendition of this very same match.
There will be an open thread later. If you're the type that stays inside rather than going out and enjoying what's a beautiful (at least here in the 215) holiday weekend Saturday, please chime in. If Lionel Messi doesn't make it abundantly clear why he's supplanted John Elway atop my fanboy list, I swear, I'll stop chattering about soccer until at least August or September. (Video H/T Bob's Blitz)
Yao Better Blues: The Houston Rockets agreed to a four-year deal with the best player in University of Minnesota history who appeared on Cheers a couple times and set the general-manager bar considerably higher when he was with the Timberwolves. Here's one columnist's take on Kevin McHale's reported hiring:
"Kevin McHale is no Rick Adelman. He isn't a Jeff Van Gundy. Or a Rudy Tomjanovich. Or a Don Chaney. McHale is unlike any coach in Rockets history. Never before have they hired a coach with so little time on the bench."
Guh rowl. [Houston Chronicle]
We are all Dave McKenna CXIII: Here's your daily link to Dave McKenna's brilliant "Cranky Redskins Fan's Guide to Dan Snyder," which we'll be posting until the mouth of Dan Snyder's dumbass libel suit gets surgically attached to the anus of that Liebeck v. McDonald's hot-coffee case and its anus surgically attached to Roy Pearson's fancy-pants mouth.
Tennis player realizes it's, like, not cool to lose Grand Slam matches: French Open No. 1 seed Caroline Wozniacki has never won a major, and she won't until Wimbledon at the earliest. Denmark's finest lost 6-1, 6-3 to Daniela Hantuchova [NYT]. No. 2 seed Kim Clijsters lost a day earlier.
"Since we're No. 1 and No. 2, it means we must be doing something right; it's just unfortunate to lose in a Grand Slam," said Wozniacki, who has yet to win one of the four titles that define careers.
The world-famous Astros fingerblast: The Arizona Diamondbacks trailed the Houston Astros 6-0 after four innings last night. The Houston Astros lost the game 7-6. This clearly did not please some Astros fans. Because, seriously, how can you be a pleased Astros fan? At least at the ballpark, where even a guy named Alan mocks you. (Photo H/T Griffin B.)
Alan Trammell grinned at reporters as they shuffled through a jubilant visitors' clubhouse. "Crazy game, wasn't it?" the Diamondbacks bench coach asked. "You never know in this crazy game." [Houston Chronicle]
Jayson Werth doesn't like new team, sick orphans, kittens, people putting words in his mouth: The Mets ensured that the Phillies would be the first MLB team to reach 32 wins on the season [Philadelphia Inquirer]. Meanwhile, the Washington Nationals .229 hitter Jayson Werth said "things need to change." The former Phillies rightfielder was talking about the team from which he took $126 million.
"What was said, however it was said, what happened from there, where it was taken from there, that's way out of my control," Werth said. "People put my words in my mouth, and people not even there to hear what I say, coming up with all these different things and scenarios I have nothing to do with or what I was talking about."
Oh. [Washington Post].
Don't push it or they'll give you a war you won't believe: Today, in rain-delay antics, it's Wake Forest drawing inspiration from First Blood. [TwitVid]
Today in really bad news...: "Following a thorough examination and assessment of Gary Carter, biopsies were performed this morning from a tumor located in Mr. Carter's brain. The preliminary results are that his tumor appears to be malignant. Once the pathology report is available, which will take several days, we will discuss treatment options with Mr. Carter and his family." [MLB]
For some reason, Ohio State's dominating the bottom of the borderline-news fold: A few tipsters sent that OSU football coach Jim Tressel editorial cartoon from the Cleveland Plain Dealer, but that's more a condemnation of Notre Dame in mine eyes [Plain Dealer].
Also from the Plain Dealer, Tressel's WR Ray Small "backtracked Friday, claiming in separate television interviews that though he committed NCAA violations by selling two Big Ten championship rings while playing for the Buckeyes, he didn't know of violations committed by any other players."
At least all the basketball team did was hire renowned flop artist Greg Paulus as an assistant coach [AP].

The tyranny of Ricky Gervais that Ricky Gervais insists he's held has ended, as NBC has announced that this year's Golden Globes will be hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, and not Tina Fey and Amy Poehler sharing a Ricky Gervais suit, as many might expect. The longtime pals, fellow ladies of NBC's Thursday night, and the Eric B. and Rakim to the Fu-Schnickens feat. Shaquille O'Neal of rapping actress crews are known for their awards show shenanigans, having provided many moments of collegial levity as presenters that make your own friendships seem like dull slogs in comparison. This year's ceremony will take place on January 13, 2013, just shy of the five-year anniversary of Baby Mama. Expect a musical tribute.
