Just one mile into the Hollywood Hills, our studio is close enough to all the Hollywood and Los Angeles attractions, but nestled far enough into the Hills to make you feel like you've escaped the city. Experience the most of Los Angeles with a comfortable and quiet retreat in the beautiful Hollywood Dell.
***Note*** The studio is NOT ideal for guests traveling without a car.
The 300 sq. ft. Studio is spacious and provides everything you need for a fabulous vacation. The Studio is furnished with a large flat screen TV, a walk-in closet, a full-sized bed, and a convertible couch (lays flat to a full-sized bed), allowing two or three to comfortably stay here (and up to four). The bathroom is spacious and luxurious, with a separate tub and shower, and soaps and towels provided. The Studio has a well-eqquipped kitchen with a coffee maker, fridge, toaster oven, and microwave.
Must see attractions, all LESS THAN 5 MILES AWAY:
-Hollywood and Highland Center
-Dolby Theater, Chinese Theater
-Stars on Hollywood Blvd.
-Hollywood Bowl
-Hollywood & Vine
-Griffith Park and Observatory
-Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Garden
-Universal Studios and Universal City Walk
-The Hollywood Sign
-The Hollywood Reservoir
-Pantages Theater
-The Hollywood Palladium
-The Magic Castle
-The Greek Theater
-Madame Tussauds Hollywood
-Gibson Amphitheater
-Runyon Canyon Park
-the famous Sunset Strip (dotted with countless well-known clubs and venues, such as The Laugh Factory, House of Blues, The Viper Room, The Roxy, The Comedy Store, and much more!!)
-many famous Production Studios (such as Disney, Warner Brothers, and Universal to name a few)
There is an endless amount of attractions and things to do, and I have only covered a small section so far. Travel just a little further, and visit the places that Los Angeles is famous for, such as:
-Santa Monica Pier
-Venice Beach
-Third Street Promenade
-Beverly Hills and Rodeo Drive
-The Grove and Farmer's Market
-Staples Center
-Nokia Theater at L.A. Live
-Walt Disney Concert Hall
-Six Flags Magic Mountain
-Knott's Berry Farm
-Redondo and Manhattan Beach
-and much more!
You will not be short of activities in Hollywood or Los Angeles, and with such a centralized location, you will be close to it all!!! Live in luxury while you visit Hollywood, and see for yourself where the stars choose to live!!!!
My name is Tiffany Golling, and I am a true l.a. girl, born and raised. I am so excited to offer my family's home as a fabulous vacation rental, as it has the most amazing location for a Los Angeles visit. I am a math teacher by profession, but after working with my boyfriend with his vacation rentals, I've seen the possibilities. I know all the attractions Hollywood and Los Angeles has to offer, and I can help you make the most out of your visit!!
Tiffany Golling purchased this studio in 2000
My dad bought this property and built this house in 2001, and after living there for over 10 years, he was ready for a change. The house is in the most ideal location for anybody wanting to get a true feeling of living with celebrities in the famous Hollywood Hills. There are world-famous attractions and amazing views and hiking trails just minutes from the house. The house is large, comfortable, and allows you to retreat from the busy city. Just a mile into the hills, you are so close to it all, but it feels like you have escaped from the non-stop action in Hollywood. Come see why so many celebrities choose to live in this neighborhood!
The Studio makes up the bottom floor of my family's big home, and when the house was available for a vacation rental conversion, the Studio was a perfect fit for a separate rental. With a separate entrance on the bottom level, our Studio guests will have their privacy while being able to take advantage of the fabulous location. You will not find a better deal out there for such a spacious and well-equipped studio!
My review will be long, but overall if you are asking if I will stay here again, the answer will be NO. There are a lot of other places on The Hollywood Hills around the same price" I would recommend trying one of those. In addition when u obtain the address to this place, it shows up that it is for sale. This was a concern because I did not know if we got scam or anything, but luckily we were not and the studio was available.
- Tiffany was amazing at responding to my email regarding any concerns I had (we will get to my concerns later in the review).
- The locations is amazing, and it comes with free parking.
- This studio is located at the bottom to the main house. The main house is also rented out, so during your stay, pray and hope that he family staying upstairs are respectful and considerate. When we were staying there the family above us had what sound like 2 little kids who woke up at 6 and were stomping on the floor and shouting and screaming. Unfortunate for us, we did not usually wake up at 6am especially during my vacation and getting back and sleeping at 1am. That usually lasted from 6am to about 9am when the family left for their adventure of the day. It was extremely loud and you can hear every little thing. We initially did not email Tiffany right away hoping it was just a one or two day issues. However, it was every single day, so we emailed her to explain to her the situation and she reply within a few hours. However, the family did not care for the email cuz the next few days it was still loud every single morning.
- The door that is locked that leads to the main house is right next to the washer and dryer and as usual this wouldn't be a concern, but I have never meet a family who washed and dried so many clothes ever! During our stay the washer and dryer was on every single minute and the worse part is I can hear every little thing from the washer and dryer. The family also for whatever reason out the dryer in the fresh mode or whatever where it will stops drying once it's done but it will spin every 15 minutes.
- The studio is attached to the main house and located at the bottom, meaning you also have no control of the thermostat. The first night we stayed there because our space was much smaller than the main house it felt like a sauna in the studio. We didn't felt comfortable opening the window because anybody can come through the window because it is facing the public.
We had a very good holiday once again in the Hollywood Hills, this was our second trip to the same apartment. The apartment has everything you need with a very comfortable bed in a very clean setting. The location is great, just a couple minutes by car to downtown, or exploring the Hollywood Hills. We always enjoy each evening sitting outside on the patio with a nice meal on the BBQ. There is a great store in Beachwood just minutes away which is great place to pick up some groceries. Start each morning with a walk around around the reservoir.
If looking for a great place in Hollywood, spending quiet evenings in the Hills, you cannot go wrong.
If you are looking for a safe, affordable, beautiful place with an excellent owner who cares about your experience...you have found it. Everything you need is in this studio within the heart of Hollywood Hills. Recommend the walk up to the Hollywood Reservoir at the end of the street as well as relaxing on the front patio watching the celebrities drive by. Wish we could have stayed longer....Thank-you Tiffany for sharing your home!
The perfect location for exploring LA/Hollywood! 10 minutes from everywhere! This flat is soooo close to Hollywood and LA you can taste it, yet it's Hollywood Hills location puts you in a quiet, peaceful spot after a long day of sightseeing. We will definitely be back. 5 stars!
This was our 3rd time vacationing in Los Angeles and had a great time, the studio apartment is very well located and was great for us. It was very comfortable, more like a home feeling than a rental - such a great neighbourhood in which we got to meet a lot of nice people living in the area. It is a studio apartment but had all the essentials for the week, we enjoyed morning coffee or evening dinner on the patio. A 5 minute walk and you were entering the Hollywood reservoir which we walked often, and a quick drive to explore Runyon Canyon. For Groceries there are lots of stores in the area but we really enjoyed going to Beachwood Market. We will be returning next fall, and once we confirm our dates I hope the place will be available again.
Tiffany's studio room is exactly what is needed for one or two people looking to experience the Hollywood Hills for a great price. The roads are narrow getting up to her place so be careful! Tiffany was prompt and attentive to our needs and was able to accommodate us as best she could.
The studio is located on a celebrity-filled street in the famous Hollywood Hills, under the Hollywood Sign. A few minutes walk brings you to the hidden gem of the Hollywood Reservoir, with the Hollywood Sign towering right above you, and a spectacular view of Los Angeles under you. Just one mile into the Hollywood Hills, the vacation studio is extremely close to the heart of Hollywood, but far enough to feel like you have escaped the city. It's all about this fabulous location!!

Went to view the latest "Will it Blend?" but the video is not being displayed in Minefield (see URL). Works OK in Fx18.104.22.168. YouTube videos and such still work fine, as well.
I can confirm this in Windows (through Parallels) as well, though it was working for me on a recent (like, two or three days old, 20070723 at oldest) OSX nightly that was being updated via the "nightly" channel. When I updated to the latest nightly, it broke.
What's odd, though, is that if I download an older nightly - like 20070720 - even when running with a fresh profile it remains broken.
Seems highly localized to flash video served up from revver.com. Video from Google Video, YouTube, metacafe, ifilm, TED, and pretty much any other flash-video site I could find still seems to work.
Had to use my wayback machine for this regression range, but it regressed between 2005-09-21-07 and 2005-09-22-08, making it a regression from bug 1156.
This is working as designed... The site sends application/octet-stream as the content type for the flash <object>, and HTML specifies that the server-sent type takes precedence over a type attribute (if any). bug 1156 made us implement that part of HTML correctly.
-> tech evang
I'm absolutely positive that I had revver flash video displaying in a trunk build properly this morning at the same time that dria's was broken, but maybe I was getting to a different revver server that doesn't have the broken HTML?
Very strange, but possible, I guess.
Is it possible that you had changed your user-agent not to include Gecko in the case where this worked for you by chance? (In such a case, the page uses a different codepath that still works).
Not unless it changed during the update, and then didn't change back.
Is there any way to nominate a tech evangelism bug for blocking status? While this might be us complying to a spec, we're currently the only browser that doesn't work with Revver video. :(
(In reply to comment #9)
> Is there any way to nominate a tech evangelism bug for blocking status?
Nope. I suggest that an official contact from schrep or someone else with name-brand recognition such as yourself contact them. If you would rather, I can use my moco addy to contact them. Depending on their maintenance schedule it shouldn't be a problem to get this fixed before Firefox 3 releases... ;-)
Another major site where Flash video isn't working is General Motors Canada:
Are we *sure* this is tech evangelism? It feels like something we need to be more forgiving of.
status --> blocker
It looks like the flash file on the GM site is sent as text/plain. It seems fairly common for sites to send the wrong content type. I think we should reconsider the change that made us give up on unknown content types given the high-profile sites that are breaking because of it.
I could live with falling back on the "type" attribute if the channel type is application/octet-stream (and in fact I think this is a really good idea) or maybe even the sniffed binary type (to handle the GM mess-up), and we can stick our text-or-binary sniffer in there to sniff for binary. Would that cover any "legitimate" cases of bogus types? I think so... I think it would also break non-ASCII text documents in <object> when served from Apache. But given that we also break them in uriloader... maybe that's ok. We'd need similar server checks here, of course.
Have I mentioned how much I hate the web lately? ;)
(To be clear, I think we should reach out to revver as well - I'm just thinking that the web, hateful place that it is, might not react well to us being suddenly strict here, especially where no-one else is.)
I'm actually surprised that anyone's doing this, since it doesn't work in IE... They must be doing some serious sniffing. :(
Created attachment 276033 [details] [diff] [review]
Say like this
Basic idea:
* Change the text/plain sniffing to use an nsIContentSniffer
* Change <object> loads to call sniffers
* Use the original type hint if the channel type in OnStartRequest is either
sniffed-binary or application/octet-stream.
I tested that the URI in bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=226024 still gets sniffed as binary. I also tested that the feed sniffer now works for <object>. Oh, and we still pass Acid2.
This fixes both of the testcases in this bug, and shouldn't break anything reasonable, I don't think....
It'd also be nice if we had testcases for all that stuff I tested... but we don't.

Requesting approval. This patch makes us sniff certain text/plain responses for <object> to see whether they might actually be binary (just like we do for <iframe>), and makes us treat binary-sniffed and application/octet-stream responses per the content-type attribute of the object, if any. This should significantly improve web compat by covering the most common broken MIME type cases without breaking any legitimate content, I hope.
Checked in. Need tests, though.... Help writing those would be great. :(

Full engagement in your high school experience will afford you the opportunity to make your high school life successful, pleasurable, and most importantly meaningful. I conclude that every student that enters this campus has the ability and potential to accomplish great things and go very far in life. Starting with the first days of school, I shared my vision for students, "E3= Excelling and Exceeding Expectations!" I am proud of the progress we have made toward achieving this vision, but there is still much work left to do.
I want you to continue focusing on academic excellence and achievement as we progress toward attaining our vision by this school year's close.
I am excited about the future of C.A. Johnson High School and look forward to embracing both the challenges and rewards of tomorrow. As a Hornet Family, we will continue to be resilient and pursue innovative ways to reach academic greatness along with finding ways to ignite, instill, and inspire "Hornet Pride" and traditions.
Always remember………We may be small in size (The Hornet), but we are big on performance (Excelling)! We ARE up for the challenge…
Let's invite everyone to: "Feel the Sting!"

Fast Food Nation: The Dark Side of the All-American Meal
Harper Collins, 2004 - History - 399 pages
Fast food has hastened the malling of our landscape, widened the chasm between rich and poor, fueled an epidemic of obesity, and propelled American cultural imperialism abroad. That's a lengthy list of charges, but Eric Schlosser makes them stick with an artful mix of first-rate reportage, wry wit, and careful reasoning.
Schlosser's myth-shattering survey stretches from California's subdivisions, where the business was born, to the industrial corridor along the New Jersey Turnpike, where many of fast food's flavors are concocted. Along the way, he unearths a trove of fascinating, unsettling truths -- from the unholy alliance between fast food and Hollywood to the seismic changes the industry has wrought in food production, popular culture, and even real estate.

The book was written just a few years after the massacre, making it an accurate way see how the public reacted to the event years past. The testimony is also great to read, it is certainly not a subjective novel of the event, but it is still worth your time.

Introduction to Women and the Law
Here is the Introduction to the terrific line-up of articles in the just published collection, Women and the Law (Thomson Reuters 2016).
Download Women and Law Foreword 2016
The theme of this year's edition of Women and the Law is captured best by contributor Deborah Brake's article entitled, "On Not Having it All." The recent scholarly literature focuses on women's so-called struggle to have it all and the difficult legal intersections of work and family. For decades, women have been encouraged to be Superwomen, to "bring home the bacon," and "fry it up in a pan," all while taking primary responsibility for family care. The structures of the law, workplace, and the family, however, have not accommodated this dual dynamic. Male workplace norms, long grounded in assumptions of workers' exclusive dedication to a job, supported by the unpaid home labor of wives and mothers, create an inadequate foundation for women's full and equal entry. Instead, we see women either "leaning in" to a 24/7 effort for workplace success, or "opting out" for a prioritization of family work. All of which assumes the privilege of profession and ignores the economic reality that most women work in paid labor because they have to, whether due to basic need, recession, or marital status.
The focus of the scholarly literature and the related litigation reflects the equivocation in women's coping strategies and in critiques of the legal systems that perpetuate gender inequality. Much of the recent research overlaps the fields of employment, reproductive rights, and family law. This intersection of legal thought mirrors women's interwoven realities of work, family, and life, where the private and public spheres are merged, and conflicts are not easily settled within one traditional body of law. Women's first encounters with sex discrimination today are more often delayed to this point of work/family conflict. Suddenly pregnancy accommodations, maternity leaves, workplace norms, sexual harassment, implicit bias in hiring and promotion, and equal pay take on new meaning.
The scholarship reflects this lived experience. There is much discussion of pregnancy and maternity and how they interface with the workplace. These intersections reveal conflicts in the law the sex equality battle assumed had been resolved. Scholars are searching for new legal frameworks to address these situations, borrowing analogies from other equality, disability, and medical regimes. This recent scholarship rejects the private/public binary and the assumption that private family life of health, children, pregnancy, and relationship exists isolated from the workplace. And it pragmatically searches for alternative theories and solutions that can make a meaningful difference to women's lives.

Study Finds Men More Likely to Cite Their Own Science Papers
Study Finds Men are More Likely to Cite Their Own Science Papers
Why? Is it confidence? production? specialization?
A new study led by sociologists at Stanford University and uploaded to the Arxiv preprint server shows that, since the 18th century, male academics cite their own papers on average 56 percent more than their female counterparts. And although you might expect this trend to level off as women occupy more tenure track positions and publish more papers, the opposite appears to be true: In the past two decades, the rate of self-citation among men was 70 percent higher than that of women....
An increased propensity to point to one's own work—"manciting," if you will—is no small thing when the number of citations a paper has is often used as a proxy to measure a scientist's importance by both peers and employers....
Self-citation, or referencing a work that has an author in common with your own paper, makes up nearly 10 percent of total citations across all 1.5 million papers on the academic database JSTOR, which the researchers used for their study. King noted that a previous study looking at over half a million scientific papers concluded that each self-citation leads to nearly three additional total citations of an author's work over the next few years, due to increased visibility—meaning that pointing people to your own work can have a multiplicative effect.
"Women aren't getting the credit from themselves, or the credit that accrues to them from others, and that's a pretty significant gap," said King
The researchers speculate that men may self-cite more because they tend to evaluate their own abilities more positively than women, and because women may face a social penalty for self-promoting....
King says male academics tend publish more papers, possibly leaving them with more work to cite. And men also tend to be more specialized, meaning that with a narrower range of literature available they have no choice but to point to their own work.

The Goal of the [Feminist] Academic is to Make Everything Less Simple
The Guardian, Interview with Mary Beard: "The Role of the Academic is to Make Everything Less Simple
She is a feminist to her bones, and gives no quarter to the kind of historical relativism that ringfences the brutality of the past as something natural and unremarkable, like eating songbirds. "It's very hard to get positive female role models in the history of the Roman empire. You think you've got one, and then, oh no. She's been raped. And killed herself. If you're going to remove the sexual violence, you cannot tell the story of Rome."She is resolute on her purpose in public life, and has no qualms about the distinction of scholarship: "What is the role of an academic, no matter what they're teaching, within political debate? It has to be that they make issues more complicated. The role of the academic is to make everything less simple."

Gender Differences in Post-Tenure Productivity Due to Fewer Solicited Invitations to Women Law Faculty
Albert Yoon (Toronto), Academic Tenure, J. Empirical Studies (forthcoming)
We also note that when limiting publications to articles and essays, the gender differences remain statistically significant across all three outcome measures, but are smaller than for the full sample of publications. This reduction in the gender gap suggests that male faculty are more likely to receive invitations to participate in symposia and other solicited venues for publication than female faculty. This disparity accounts for at least some of the observed gender gap in productivity. ***
The gender difference in productivity we consistently observe warrants additional comment. Women write fewer articles post-tenure, are cited less frequently, and place in lower-ranked journals than men. The point estimates on gender reflect general comparisons between female and male faculty, and do not identify differences before and after tenure. In separate specifications, not reported, we examine female and male faculty separately. We find that across the full sample of publications, female faculty exhibit roughly the same productivity on all three measures before and after tenure, while male faculty' publication count increases by 24 percent (their citation rate and journal placement do not meaningfully change).
The underlying explanation for these gender differences goes beyond the scope of this Article and warrants closer examination. Other studies have examined men and women in law school, the entry-level law teaching market, and the legal profession, often identifying large differences between the genders. The limits of our data make it difficult to further explore possible explanations for the differences we observe. We do not, for example, observe which faculty – men and women – are married or have children during the first ten years of their academic careers, either of which could influence their productivity. Part of the differences, we observe, however, may be institutional, given that we observed that men publish in symposia – typically solicited publications – disproportionate to their numbers in the academy.

Why Feminism Matters to the Study of Law
Why Feminism Matters to the Study of Law
Queen's University's Faculty of Law is home to Feminist Legal Studies Queen's (FLSQ), a research group that expands awareness and development of scholarship in feminist legal studies, enables the development of feminist legal scholars at Queen's, and fosters connections among feminists with an interest in law. In the fall of 2014, I had the privilege of returning to Queen's Law to give the first seminar in FLSQ's 2014–15 lecture series. I was tasked with providing some reflections on why feminist legal theory matters. Some of the people attending the talk were also enrolled in the Queen's Feminist Legal Studies Workshop. The readings assigned for those students were (1) Toni Pickard's (retired Queen's law faculty member) wonderful introduction to law students at Queen's from 1987, (2) Patricia Monture's (a graduate of Queen's) 2004 piece, "Women's Words," and (3) Ruthann Robson's (lesbian legal theorist and class critic) piece "To Market, To Market."What follows is the text from that talk.

Law Student Studies Gender Inequity in His Research
Law Student Studies Gender Inequity in His Research
UW Law student Harlan Mechling couldn't go to his little sister's graduation from Willamette University, but his father did call to tell him she was graduating as a member of Phi Beta Kappa, a nation-wide honor society, with 42 other women and 16 men. Those numbers stood out to Mechling, instigating his research on gender inequity.
"The more I thought about it, the more I realized that's not surprising because it's consistent with my experience," Mechling said. "Throughout my life, girls have always been at the top of the class."
Mechling's research revealed that women account for more than 60 percent of students graduating with honors, 9 percent higher than their percent of the student population. Despite these feats, most women will likely be getting paid only 78 percent of what their male colleagues will earn.
Kellye Testy, dean of the UW School of Law, believes her students face persistent gender discrimination once they're out in the work world.
"One of the areas I've always been interested in is legal education," Testy said. "We've been admitting women in law school a roughly equal number as men for a few decades now.
But if you look at the world and the number of CEOs, governors, law school deans, etc., the percentage of women is much lower than it should be."
She clarified that it is not just the UW law school that is graduating equal numbers of men and women.
Mechling's research used statistics from Phi Beta Kappa. He gathered stats from emails sent out to those who qualified and the number of people in the society, from 27 private and public universities. Mechling wanted to measure academics because it was one of the only measurements that was consistent across universities in different states.
He began his research thinking maybe the high percentage of women in honors was just a Northwest thing, but was surprised to find consistency among schools.
The research paper Mechling created, titled "Follow California's lead — help women recover damages for workplace sex/gender discrimination," also states that even with the same amount of work experience, women teachers are paid 11 percent less than male teachers within a year of graduating college. In business and management jobs, women make 86 percent of what men are paid. In sales it is even less, with women earning 77 percent of what men get paid, according to Mechling.
Testy believes it is because of implicit bias. She said gender equity is certainly moving in the right direction, but there's a long history in the United States of gender discrimination.
Mechling said one way to address these issues is for states to have better non-discrimination laws.
"The best solution is a federal law amending the Equal Pay Act of 1973," Mechling said. "There have been attempts to do that, but House Republicans keep shooting it down. I think the state is the only way it's going to work because Congress has shown repeatedly that it's not going to happen on the federal level."
States tend to interpret the Equal Pay Act very broadly, according to Mechling. Usually there are four defenses for unequal pay and gender inequity, one of which allows employers to justify pay disparity as long as it's any factor other than sex.
Cited in his research, the American Bar Foundation found only 6 percent of employment discrimination filings between 1987 and 2003 went to trial. Only one-third of those cases were successful. Even for employment discrimination cases, 40 percent are dismissed or lost at summary judgment.
Martina Kartman, a UW law student who was an intake investigator at the Seattle Office for Civil Rights, did the initial interviews at the office to determine if a discrimination case would be taken or not.
"I think one of the things that was most difficult about discrimination laws and enforcing them is that they are from the '60s," Kartman said. "Our laws haven't always kept up with change."

A Study of The Promise--and Danger--of Victim Impact Statements for Sexual Assault Victims
Karen-Lee Miller, PhD Thesis, "You Can't Stop the Bell from Ringing": Protean, Unpredictable, and Persisting: The Victim Impact Statement in the Context of Sexually Assaulted Women
Abstract:The victim impact statement (VIS) is a victim's voluntarily written account of a range of harms experienced as a consequence of a crime. Rarely is the VIS investigated specific to sexual assault or from a theoretical perspective. This qualitative study was designed to address these gaps. Interviews were conducted with 44 participants who sought or provided VIS-related services in Canada. Findings were analyzed using insights from actor-network theory.
Findings of the overall study are presented through three distinct but interrelated papers. "Obliging Detours" (Miller, submitted) describes the development of the VIS in Canada, and its multiple, innovative, and unauthorized pathways of use. These pathways created novel opportunities, demands, and risks for sexual assault victims, particularly those who were mothers, female offenders, or had been excluded at trial. "Relational Caring" (Miller, 2014) identifies an ethic of care that underpinned use of the VIS by sexually assaulted women. Victims prioritized the well-being of others by constructing VIS narratives that privileged the harms experienced by others, protected future victims, and promoted the interests of intimate partner offenders. Victims who were mothers, especially those abused as minors, and those who were intimate partners of their offenders were particularly implicated. "Purposing and Repurposing Harms" (Miller, 2013) demonstrates how harm descriptions were manipulated by victims and others in keeping with, and contrary to, legislators' design of the VIS. VIS repurposing occurred through victims' practices of strategic disclosure, which was intended to effect changes in others' behaviours, and harm peddling, which was the circulation of the VIS in nonsentencing arenas by victims and nonvictims to obtain compensation, child custody, and parole delay.
Taken together, the findings revealed that the VIS has a protean nature that is produced by structural and relational factors, and lends itself to multiple uses in multiple contexts. VIS-related outcomes and the effects on victims and others could neither be wholly predicted nor prevented, and involved interactions beyond the criminal court setting. The protean, unpredictable, and persisting positive and negative effects of the VIS hold promise — and danger — for sexual assault victims.

Women Academics, but Not Men, are Punished for Co-Authoring
Wash Post, Why Men Get All The Credit When They Work With Women
Heather Sarsons, a PhD candidate in economics at Harvard, recently compiled four decades of records on over 500 tenure decisions at the top 30 economics schools in the nation. During the tenure process at a university, young professors race to do as much research as possible to prove they deserve a permanent position on the faculty. The number of papers they publish in journals is one important measure of their performance.
According to Sarson's preliminary results, it doesn't affect a male economist's chances at tenure if he publishes papers on his own, or with collaborators. But female economists are punished if they co-author. *
As further evidence that men are receiving credit for women's contributions, Sarsons shows that the penalty for co-authorship only exists when women work with men. When women work on a paper exclusively with other women, that penalty disappears. When men and women collaborate, however, men seem to soak up all the credit from the women.

US Law Reviews' Dirty Game
Times Higher Education, US Law Reviews' Dirty Game: Review by Student
Submissions for almost all American general law reviews and for more than half of the specialised ones are reviewed by law students, selected by more senior law students based on their first-year academic performance. Unfortunately, however intelligent and ambitious they are, students just don't have the expertise to judge the quality of submissions. As a result, an article's fate is determined by the application of several superficial criteria.
First is the author's name and affiliation. If she is unknown to the students and either does not teach (but, for example, works at a law firm) or teaches at an institution that places lower in U. S. News and World Report's most recent annual rankings of law schools, they generally disregard her submission. Never mind that the U. S. News rankings are based on algorithms that embed highly subjective and controversial judgements.
Second, if an author's obligatory CV indicates prior publications in journals at schools ranked lower in U. S. News, many students will deem her current efforts to be unworthy of consideration.
Third, students feel obliged to accept submissions by their own professors. This much is forgivable, I suppose. What is less forgivable is the professors' willingness to put them in this position to begin with. They are in effect compelling the students to publish their work, no matter how weak it may be, thereby monopolising the few available slots in their own schools' journals. This is just one more reason to doubt the common assumption that the most original and insightful legal scholarship can be found in the highest-ranked law reviews.
Fourth, students typically prefer some areas of law over others, based not so much on informed legal judgement as on the politics of the day and what they happen to perceive as simpler, more "colourful" topics.

Gendering the Marriage Penalty in Tax
Stephanie Hunter McMahon (Cincinnati) has posted Gendering the Marriage Penalty, in Controversies in Tax Law (Ashgate 2015):
In 1969 Congress amended the Internal Revenue Code to create a marriage penalty. The penalty was not felt by all married couples: Only those couples in which spouses earned roughly equal amounts and who filed joint tax returns paid a penalty. Thus, the 1969 change in law had a gendered effect of discouraging some wives from earning income, but the alternative was not without its own gendered results. If gender marks the impact of the 1969 legislation, was gender what motived the change in law? It would be easy to assume that at the end of the 1960s, a socially conservative legislature reacted to a developing women's movement. From the legislative debates, sexism certainly pervaded congressional discussion of women's role in the family and the economy. However, this only tells part of the story and does so by focusing on the result that remains of interest today. Economic forces were a larger part of the story. The context of the 1969 revision shows it as part of an economic movement evolving since the end of World War II as policymakers adopted tax legislation in an attempt to improve the economy and fight the Cold War. Not only policymakers in Washington but also many women's groups shared this focus on national economics. The focus on economic issues resulted in a lack of analysis of how this change in tax policy would affect various groups of women. The development of the marriage penalty highlights the need to consider the consequences of legislation prior to its enactment. In this case, particular concerns (largely economic) drove legislation that imposed most of its cost on a segment of society that was not focused on this issue.

A Feminist Perspective on Children and Law
Laura Rosenbury, A Feminist Perspective on Children and Law: From Objectification to Relational Subjectivities
The second part of the chapter proceeds to articulate a relational approach to children's subjectivity. Building on the work of Martha Minow, this approach highlights children's experiences as active participants in multiple relationships directly and indirectly mediated by law. Children's relationships are not confined to the family, nor do they solely involve hierarchal dynamics of development and control. Children instead experience a broad range of interactions as children, separate from or in addition to their interests in becoming adults, even as they remain dependent on adults for many aspects of their lives. Children's relationships therefore blur the traditional distinction between subjects and objects, providing a foundation for law to acknowledge and foster children's intrinsic interests as children.

New Book Chapter on the Long History of the ERA
I just posted TJ Boisseau & Tracy Thomas, After Suffrage Comes Equality? ERA as the Next Logical Step, forthcoming as a chapter in the book 100 Years of the Nineteenth Amendment: An Appraisal of Women's Political Activism edited by Lee Ann Banaszak and Holly McCammon (Oxford University Press 2016).
The chapter traces the long, and surprising, history of the Equal Rights Amendment, first proposed in 1923.
From the abstract:
Almost a full century in the making, the campaign for an ERA far exceeded in longevity the campaign for woman suffrage, however much a "logical next step" women's equality seemed to some following the spectacular achievement of the Nineteenth Amendment. The history of the amendment reveals how resistant to the idea of equality between men and women a political system—even one that includes women as voters—can be. In this chapter, we re-examine the route taken by the ERA through its many permutations in the century since the passage of woman suffrage. Proposed by Alice Paul in 1923 and immediately opposed by social feminists advocating protective labor laws, the ERA wound itself in and out of feminist, conservative, and public favor before its final defeat in 1982, three states short of adoption. Woven into the Supreme Court's analysis of Lochner and substantive due process, and the later evolution of equal protection law, women's equality--or difference--has been the foundation of much of the development of modern constitutional doctrine.

Keith Cunningham-Parmeter's new article
Prof. Keith Cunningham-Parmeter has uploaded a new article onto SSRN. The article is titled "Marriage Equality, Workplace Inequality: The Next Gay Rights Battle," and its abstract reads:
Same-sex marriage is not the only civil rights issue impacting the gay community. Although the Supreme Court's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges represented a momentous victory on same-sex marriage, workplace protections affect far more people and remain a high priority for many lesbians and gay men. Today, even though the Supreme Court has invalidated state marriage restrictions across the country, federal law still makes it perfectly permissible to fire a gay man for telling a coworker about his sexuality or to discharge a woman for displaying her wife's picture at work.
This Article critically evaluates the relationship between same-sex marriage and workplace rights. Focused narrowly on case-by-case tactics, proponents of same-sex marriage won in court by selectively choosing gay couples who appeared "safe" and "ordinary" to judges. The decision to prioritize marriage over other gay civil rights-while utilizing reductive depictions of gay relationships in the process-raises distinct challenges for lawyers attempting to extend victories on the marriage front to other important legal realms such as employment protections.
Outlining a model for thinking about gay rights beyond marriage, this Article calls for renewed attention to the argument that sexual orientation discrimination constitutes a form of sex discrimination. The cultural imperative requiring individuals to desire only partners of the opposite sex constitutes American society's most enduring gender stereotype. Employers and states that punish sexual minorities for violating this norm engage in both sexual orientation discrimination and sex discrimination. By combating discrimination in employment, housing, and other civil rights areas, this refocused approach to gay rights applies to numerous legal contexts outside of marriage, thereby addressing the legal needs of a much larger segment of the gay community.

The Plymouth Pavilions once again proved to be anything but a happy home for the Devon professional Andy Hicks yesterday. Much to the disappointment of his supporters, the world No 18 failed to reach the third round of the British Open by losing to the defending champion, Nigel Bond.
For the third time in four years, Hicks lost a match at the venue 5-4 as Bond earned a last 16 meeting with Tony Drago.
"After winning my first match I thought maybe this is going to be my tournament," the left-hander said.
"But today I played diabolically. I didn't feel as if I could pot a ball. It's really frustrating because in practice I feel as though I'm playing the best snooker I've ever done."
"I don't want to give it up without a fight," Bond said. "And it's going to take someone playing really well to beat me."
Dominic Dale, who put out Jimmy White in the first round, yesterday accounted for the world No 24, Steve James.

Double Ashes-winning captain, soon-to-be skipper of the world's No 1 Test team if all goes to plan and so well-respected by opponents that they are now withdrawing appeals against one of his players: what more could go right for Andrew Strauss?
Well, a decent score would be handy, just to prevent a few murmurs of concern from growing into calls for the opener to admit he has a real problem. As Strauss pointed out with mild exasperation earlier this summer, one member of the team always seems to be under the spotlight, no matter how good England's results have been.
This time last summer it was Alastair Cook who felt the heat. And, more recently, Kevin Pietersen and Stuart Broad have had their performances scrutinised in microscopic detail. All three of those players can now breathe easily (although Cook is no doubt readying himself for the first bit of criticism in nearly a year after scoring only 20 runs in four innings against India) but Strauss is struggling to make his presence felt as a batsman.
The facts are these: in eight Test innings this summer, against Sri Lanka and India, England's leader has totalled a distinctly modest 129 runs – despite reaching 20 (and therefore getting 'in') on four occasions. He scored a century and passed 50 on three other visits to the crease during last winter's Ashes, which would have been headline news on many a recent tour of Australia but looked fairly small beer thanks to the mighty efforts of Cook and Jonathan Trott.
But – and here is something that suggests less of a blip and more of a trend – an innings of 110 in Brisbane is his only three-figure score in his last 37 completed innings, a sequence dating back two years.
A couple of things need underlining. Firstly, Strauss is not about to be dropped. And secondly, he looks in much better form than during his last century drought when 30 innings went by before the Middlesex left-hander made a career-saving 177 against New Zealand at Napier in March 2008.
All that said, though, Strauss would feel happier if only he could turn promising little acorns into one big oak this summer – and preferably during England's first innings at next week's Edgbaston Test.
It all looked promising for him yesterday. Having come through a tricky little period on Saturday evening, he settled in again and looked in no trouble at all while reaching 16. With Ian Bell batting beautifully at the other end, a big stand looked almost inevitable – until Strauss edged a catch behind.
There was nothing exceptional about the ball from Sree Sreesanth. It may have bounced a bit more than England's captain expected but, in terms of misbehaving, it appeared to do nothing other than maintain a straight line across him. When your luck is in, you play and miss. When it is out, the snick goes straight to hand (or in this case, glove) and another innings is cut short.
Strauss, of course, is not the only England batsman to have been brought down to earth just a little. Cook, as already mentioned, has not got going against India (although he made another mountain of runs against Sri Lanka during the first half of the summer) while Trott has literally hit the turf with a bump.
A routine piece of fielding on Saturday ended with Trott in agony and lucky not to have dislocated his shoulder after falling heavily. He was unable to bat in his normal No 3 position yesterday and must be a serious doubt for Edgbaston.
Missing out on a Test at his home ground would be especially disappointing for Trott. On top of that, it would require England's selectors to search for their thinking caps in order to come up with the best possible replacement.
Bell has clearly made the strongest possible case to continue at No 3 in the absence of his Warwickshire team-mate. As for who might fit into the lower middle order, several candidates (Ravi Bopara, James Taylor, James Hildreth and Samit Patel) come to mind but no red-hot favourite.
This week's England Lions game against Sri Lanka A could help to clarify England's thinking.

Urban Roads May Be Safer than Rural Ones
Even within states with generally low fatality rates, the apparent safety gap between rural and urban roads persists, writes Larry Copeland. He attributes the discrepancy to cities' lower speed limits, additional safety engineering features, and greater proximity to emergency medical facilities.
According to the data, the country's safest places to drive are the Washington D.C. and Massachusetts, while Montana, Wyoming, Louisiana and Mississippi are the most dangerous.
However, some critics argue for looking beyond statistics to assess how safe roads are, writes Copeland:
"Many traffic safety groups such as the Governors Highway Safety Association argue that such comparisons don't accurately reflect how safe a state's roads are. A better measure, they say, is whether states have enacted proven safety enhancements such as motorcycle helmet laws and primary seat belt laws, which allow police to stop motorists solely for being unbuckled."

Jonny Joint rebuild??
I have the JKS front trac bar on my TJ and it has lots of play from side to side.
My question is should I replace just the bushings or everything?
I see they sell all the parts by them selfs...The trac bar only has 10k on the bushings...I don't think they should of failed so soon...
Thanks for the help..
Which end has the play? The nice thing about the JJ is that it is rebuildable. So you don't have to replace the whole track bar. It's the reason I run them in my control arms. Just replace the bushings instead of the whole thing.
There are plenty of reasons why the bushings can fail. If your front end isn't assembled correctly you will have advanced wear on a normal wear and tear part. 10k on a normal operating rig shouldn't wear out those bushings.
Yeah, 10k isn't a lot unless it's all on double diamond rock runs.
When was the last time it got greased? I'm not sure I'd buy parts until I pulled it apart and saw if it was damaged. If it is, I think I'd start looking for cause first.
I did take it a part today. I found no worn parts.
This is for the front trac bar. The joint mounts at the frame.
I grease the suspension every 3000miles at every oil change.
All the mounting bolts and hardware is tight and in good shape.
I'm at a lose on why this is happening.
I'm using regular grease you get in a tube for suspension.
It should be moly lube. You should only use moly lube in a Johnny Joint. Anything else will eat the races around the JJ.
I will go look and see if it is moly lube...
Thanks for the help
Ok it is moly lube.
Were else would be a good place to look for problems?
Question...the play at the joint at the frame....is it in the joint ...or the bolt...mite try making sure the bolt is snug and the hole is not buggered up.
Man, I hate all the technospeak on this forum..
Buggered up is just so hard to follow. :D
I just re-read the OP. Side to side movement? Is the tracbar end connected to a stock link? I think that might be normal if so. Besides the side to side movement, are you getting any other indications of a problem?
I'll try to dumb it up more for you Larry.:flipoff:
Can't. take. anymore. up.
Can you dumb it down instead? :D
Sure...make sure the mounting hole is not ovaled or wallered out.
"""the JKS tracbar requires you to drill out the factory frame hole to fit the larger bolt.""
Sometimes the hole is not drilled straight or the bolt comes loose and can oval the bolt hole. In essence jacking the hole up and leaving play in the tracbar. not good.
Got it now smarty pants. :p
Oh. Ok.
Got it.
Well, IF his hole isn't wallered out (jeez) and he is only getting side to side movement AND the frame tie is stock I think that the easiest thing to do is to pull the nut off the bolt, if necessary, put the bolt in from the other side so that you have access to the link point without the bolt in the way but with the tracbar still in place, remove the tire and with a BIG damn hammer, smack the link until the joint is nice and tight (ooohhh) within the link and bolt it back together.
But, maybe your hole is just buggered up...
LOL... The bolt is nice and tight...Not buggered up...
The side to side movement is only in the trac bar itself, I have the stock mount on the frame.
The best way to describe it is bolt and inside joint stay put and don't move at all. The trac bar moves around the joint like it has worn bushing, but bushings look great. So maybe this is normal?
