Tottenham Hotspur are the latest Barclays Premier League club to be linked with a move for Manchester United and Liverpool target Jordon Ibe.
The Wycombe Wanderers starlet, who broke a club record in August when debuting in the Carling Cup at the age of 15 years 244 days, has shot to prominence with some eye-catching performances at senior level in Npower League One.
Scouts from a handful of clubs have taken a closer look at the player, with Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish one of the first to be credited with an interest.
Manchester United quickly followed suit, with Sir Alex Ferguson dispatching members of his team to go and check on the player.
And now, The Independent claims Spurs have joined the race for the player, with head of recruitment Richard Allen monitoring Ibe's progress.
The report goes on to claim that Harry Redknapp's side are ready to 'lodge' a bid for the player, with a fee in the region of £500,000 set to be placed on the table in an effort to secure the attacking midfielder's signature at White Hart Lane.
Ibe's signing would be a major coup for Tottenham Hotspur, given the interest from such high-profile rivals in the division.
Liverpool have previously been credited as the front-runners in the race for Ibe, with Reds director of football Damien Comolli making moves to bolster the club's academy since his appointment at the club.
Raheem Sterling, and more recently Seyi Ojo, have been drafted in for figures that could rise into the millions, and a similar package would be needed if Ibe were to join the Liverpool academy at Anfield.
Whilst Kenny Dalglish would be unlikely to see the player at senior level on Merseyside, his capture would be a clear indication of Liverpool building for the future.
Manchester United, meanwhile, are another club who pride themselves on developing young talent into first team regulars at Old Trafford.
The class of '99 is the greatest example of young players leading to trophies at a club, with the Red Devils winning the treble with a large group of 'kids' in the side.
Ferguson's current senior side has a handful of starlets who have graduated through the Manchester United academy ranks, with Tom Cleverley and Danny Welbeck two examples at domestic and international level.
Last season's FA Youth Cup winners, the future is clearly bright for the manager who succeeds Ferguson at Manchester United, and Ibe would add further to the quality coming through at the champions.

Global Building Stock Will Expand 25 Percent by 2021, Driven by Growth in Asia Pacific, Forecasts Pi
Global Building Stock Will Expand 25 Percent by 2021, Driven by Growth in Asia Pacific, Forecasts Pike Research
BOULDER, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- A clear understanding of the extent and the qualities of the global building stock will be a key element in the effort to increase the overall energy efficiency of dwellings, businesses, and the cities in which they are located. This information will grow increasingly valuable as governments, businesses, and building owners focus more intently on the energy consumption of buildings worldwide. According to a recent report from Pike Research, a part of Navigant's Energy Practice, the world's collective building stock, both residential and commercial, will expand by 25 percent from 2012 to 2021, growing from 1.6 trillion square feet (SF), or 145 billion square meters (SM), to just under 2 trillion SF, or 182.5 billion SM, during that period. Much of this growth will occur in the Asia Pacific region, where the total building stock will grow by 47 percent over that timeframe.
"Commercial and residential buildings are responsible for 49 percent of the world's energy consumption and 47 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions," says senior research analyst Eric Bloom. "Much of this energy is consumed in an inefficient manner, and can be reduced through cost-effective measures. Such measures will be particularly critical in rapidly growing economies like China, where residential buildings will grow by 60 percent in the next decade, reaching more than 600 billion square feet by 2021."
Of the 145 billion SM of total building stock in 2011, 75 percent was in residential buildings. On a global basis, both the commercial and residential segments will experience similar rates of growth in the next 10 years, according to the report. In some countries, such as the United States, the residential building stock will actually contract over time due to increased levels of urbanization and demographic shifts. By 2021, the study concludes, the total area of single-family homes in the United States will have decreased by nearly 4 billion SF.
The report, "Global Building Stock Database," provides data and forecasts on the size and growth of the global building stock from 2011 to 2021 as well as a qualitative description of key drivers and trends in the building stock. The data covers eight commercial building types (office, retail, education, healthcare, hotels and restaurants, institutional/assembly, warehouse, and transport) and two residential building types (single-family detached and multi-unit residential) for seven regions worldwide. An Executive Summary of the report is available for free download on the Pike Research website.

Why Some Labels Will Sidestep Fashion Week
New York Fashion Week has long been perceived as a pinnacle of success for an American designer. Yet when fashion week opens Feb. 7, a number of labels that showed there in the past will be sitting it out.
Joy Cioci will instead present her collection in mid-March after editors and buyers return from Paris Fashion Week, the last event in the monthlong round of collections. The New York calendar "was so crowded, and it's so hectic for buyers and the editors, she says of the four seasons she showed at the fashion-week tents. "I just felt that I wasn't getting the investment return."
Yoana Baraschi, whose 10-year-old label showed at fashion week for many seasons, will also move to mid-March. Her presentation, she says, will be more intimate, and she will be able to hire high-caliber talent that is usually booked during fashion week.
"Everybody wants the same models and the same stylists. It's just spinning out of control," Ms. Baraschi says of the official week. "No one can see as many shows as there are now."
New York's calendar has become noticeably more crowded as labels squeeze in with entrepreneurial zeal. While fashion shows used to be limited to high-style labels, midprice contemporary labels and menswear brands are now muscling into New York. One reason: No official body controls the calendar, unlike in Milan and Paris, where just a few dozen labels are invited to show in each fashion week. So far, 283 labels have registered to present collections at New York Fashion Week, up from 204 in Feb. 2007, according to the Fashion Calendar, a company that tracks fashion events.
While the official calendar runs Thursday to Thursday from Feb. 7-14, designers actually will start showing as early as Monday, Feb. 4, turning the "week" into 11 days.
There are hourly collisions on the busiest days. At 4 p.m. Monday, four labels are showing in various locations around New York. At 8 p.m. Sunday, editors must choose between seeing Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Rucci. And after seeing 10 or more collections a day, most viewers have to look at photos to bring the blur of clothes back into focus.
"I need memory retention. I need a chance to sit and talk to these people," says designer Daniel Vosovic, who is moving his three-year-old label to a March presentation as well.
Often, it is cheaper to circumvent New York Fashion Week. Mackage designers Elisa Dahan and Eran Elfassy found it less expensive to fly editors to their show at Toronto Fashion Week. They launched Montreal-based Mackage in New York in 1999—but started showing in Toronto last year. "I feel like we were little kids trying to accomplish a dream," Ms. Dahan says of those early shows. But in Toronto, she says, they can hire top models who are contractually forbidden to do their shows in New York because of agreements with more powerful brands.
The cost of a show during New York Fashion Week is generally six figures and can rise to more than $1 million for big brands. If you hire top models, the minimum cost of a show is $350,000, says Ms. Baraschi, who estimates she will save 60% of the cost by moving to March.
Many designers are creating carefully produced videos of their collections. Rather than limiting their audience to the people at the show, they can send the video to stores and editors, use it for advertising and put it on YouTube and style.com. "It has longevity," Ms. Cioci says.
Designers who forsake New York's fashion week still plan to keep their showrooms open to take orders from store buyers during the week, just as they have in the past.
The split highlights the increasing separation between store buyers and fashion editors. Shows, with their pomp and drama, are increasingly focused on marketing to magazine editors. As designers try to accommodate the growing number of celebrities and bloggers, stores have been crowded out. While top fashion executives at big department stores such as Saks and Neiman Marcus still get invitations, they aren't always in the front rows. And smaller store buyers sometimes struggle to obtain invitations at all.
The chaos is a natural part of a fast-changing industry, says Tom Florio, former publisher of Vogue, who recently took over as CEO of Advanstar Fashion group, which runs eight fashion trade shows. Mr. Florio's new shows, which seek to get higher fashion into the trade-show environment, aim to lure New York Fashion Week regulars. One show called "The Tents" will launch later this month in Las Vegas, inviting trendy menswear labels such as Billy Reid and Michael Bastian to participate. "There are so many ways to communicate fashion today," says Mr. Florio. "You don't necessarily have to tell that story on the runway anymore.
None of this diminishes many designers' aspirations to reach New York fashion week. To launch her new ready-to-wear Rivini line during fashion week, bridal designer Rita Vinieris started looking for open times in October. "The calendar is insanely crowded," she says. She settled on Feb. 6, a day before official fashion week. She hopes to reach editors who miss her presentation with a video and private appointments.
Nary Manivong, whose NAHM label will be showed to editors by appointment in March, says he is sanguine about skipping New York Fashion Week. "For me, fashion week will always be there. I can always come back."

Rutgers men's basketball coach Mike Rice is a bully.
Rutgers men's basketball coach Mike Rice is a bully.
Any coach who throws a basketball at kids, berates them with vulgar language and pushes them around like rag dolls is a bully.
It's a shame it took Rutgers three years to figure it out and eventually fire him. It took ESPN one day, one hour, one moment of watching Rice abuse his players physically and verbally to know something was drastically wrong.
The sad part is that Rutgers Athletic Director Tim Pernetti knew he had a bully in his gym and didn't fire him immediately.
Instead, Pernetti — with the blessing of university President Robert Barchi — suspended Rice for three games, fined the coach $75,000 and ordered him to attend anger management classes in November 2012.
Any normal human being who watched the tapes of Rice kicking his players, pushing them from behind and screaming names you wouldn't call a dog would have fired Rice on the spot.
Not Rutgers.
And when ESPN asked Rutgers for a practice tape from the last three years, they saw Rice throwing basketballs at players' heads, calling players "a f—-ing fairy" and "f—-ing faggot."
The day after ESPN broadcast those tapes, Rutgers fired Rice. The sports world was aghast.
Rutgers was embarrassed, be sure of that. Embarrassed that they knowingly had a bully under their roof and suspended him, fined him but didn't fire him sooner.
Rice had this to say Wednesday about his actions caught on tape:
"It's troubling, but I will at some time, maybe I'll try to explain it, but right now, there's no explanation for what's on those films. Because there is no excuse for it. I was wrong. I want to tell everybody who's believed in me that I'm deeply sorry."
Rice has nothing to explain to his family and friends at Rutgers. They all know what he is: a clean-shaven, nicely dressed bully parading as a basketball coach.
It's not surprising considering that the leash coaches are given is much longer than that of a teacher. Coaches are allowed to yell and scream, blow whistles and tell players they stink.
Using racial slurs is out. Calling someone a "f—-ing fairy" is most definitely out.
Rutgers should have known this some time ago. It had the tape. It had the players and assistant coaches to ask. It had the evidence in its hands and chose instead to suspend Rice for three games.
Be mad at Rice for his behavior.
More importantly, fans of Rutgers should reconsider the moral judgment of Pernetti, who is running their athletic department.
Pernetti didn't do enough — not nearly enough, not nearly quickly enough — until the tape was released and he was shamed into firing his coach.
Pernetti should be dismissed. His actions were negligent to the guys on that team who needed someone to stand up for them.
Little did the players know Pernetti had no spine to do the right thing long ago.

By Chad Waller, NAIA Director of Communications & Sports Information
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Remontay McClain of Azusa Pacific (Calif.) has been honored as the NAIA National Men's Outdoor Track Athlete of The Week and Nate Moses of Concordia (Ore.) has been named the NAIA National Men's Outdoor Field Athlete of The Week, the national office announced Wednesday. McClain and Moses were selected based on their performances from April 23 - 29 and are the final awards of 2012. Moses earns his second such honor this year, having been named on March 28.
McClain, a freshman from Victorville, Calif., dominated a pair of events to help lead Azusa Pacific to the 2012 Golden State Athletic Conference (GSAC) Men's Track & Field Championship title. On April 28, he took medalist honors by winning the 100-meter (10.33) and 200-meter dashes (21.37). He also ran the anchor leg of the conference championship 4x100 relay team in a time of 41.62. He won the 100-meters by a comfortable margin of almost three-quarters of a second.
Moses, a junior from Fresno, Calif., set a Concordia discus record held by a two-time NAIA national champion. At the NCAA Division III Pacific (Ore.) Twilight on April 28, he unleashed a toss of 192-7 to win the discipline in stadium and meet-record fashion. Moses added exactly two feet to the school record previously held by Nik Kay and crushed the stadium and meet records by more than 20 feet. Moses now holds an 18-foot lead over the next NAIA athlete on the season performance list. Only 18 United States discus throwers have thrown farther than Moses in 2012 according to the USA Track & Field Association. He also set a personal season best in the shot put with a 53-7 mark which ranks No. 10 on the NAIA performance list. In his third event (hammer throw), Moses finished seventh out of 32 with a distance of 167-3.

Jan. 21, 2009
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Stephen Morton has been named the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Men's Track and Field Athlete of the Week after leading MIT to a first place finish in its season opening meet versus Bates and Colby over the weekend. Morton's performance was so outstanding that he received the conference's top honor in both disciplines as the awards are typically given to two different athletes.
The junior earned 28 of the Engineers' 204 total points on Saturday while picking up four individual event wins. On the track, Morton won the 55 meter dash in 6.63 seconds and claimed the top spot in the 200 meters with a time of 23.04. Morton helped MIT solidify its first place standing in the field events, out-jumping his counterparts in both the long jump and the triple jump. An All-American in the event last season, he won the long jump with a distance of 6.78 meters. He also reached 14.47m in the triple jump, nearly a full meter ahead of his closest competitor.
MIT will be back in action this weekend at the Terrier Classic hosted by Boston University on Saturday, January 24.

If there are other teams involved with Jason Bay, that could explain the silence from his camp. The mystery team, might have to make another deal to free up salary to make the trade.
The Yankees are reportedly talking trade about bringing in a pitcher, with Javier Vazquez's name popping up. Would the Braves be interested if that were the case? Reports still are naming the Mariners, Giants and Angels. One report had the Mariners considering moving Cliff Lee. That would only mean the Yankees.
If this is true, then the Mets have fallen in Bay's pecking order. Not that he appeared high to begin with.

For years, cotton entomologists held regular, informal discussions about what was working and what was not when it came to controlling cotton insects. A few years ago, Mississippi State University's Jeff Gore began conducting an electronic survey of university entomologists from the Carolinas to California. Gore discussed the results of this year's survey with consultants during the Consultants Conference that opened the 2013 Beltwide Cotton Conferences in San Antonio Monday.

1998 Aggregate Property Tax Rate Abstract by Taxing
Property tax rate abstracts are filed with the Tax
Equalization Division annually by each county auditor. The
attached self-extracting file compiles the rate abstracts by
taxing district for all 88 counties into an easily usable DB4
The file shows the total combined gross and effective tax
rates for all jurisdictions in the taxing district. It also
shows estimated annual property taxes in each taxing district
for homes of $50,000 - $200,000 in market value. When
downloaded, the database will come with a readme.txt file
that explains all of the variables it contains.

Our cohort size (held in file vector format) is 6k and the phenotype file we are running has non NA values for 800 of them (so only 800 selected for this run). We are seeing memory usage in excess of 50GB for a single chromosome with 5M SNPs. The manual for ProbABEL details high memory use, but for ~ 5GB at 2.5M SNPs. Are we consuming much more than expected ?
I am currently testing within Valgrind to determine if there are any memory leaks (nothing reported so far). The memory consumption does seem to increment over time, which I did not expect, as my understanding was that the SNP data was being processed on a row by row basis. Is my understanding correct ?

Houma will be the destination for next year's Louisiana Entrepreneurship Fest after what organizers called a successful inaugural run.
Houma will be the destination for next year's Louisiana Entrepreneurship Fest after what organizers called a successful inaugural run.
More than 450 people registered for the Thursday through Friday gathering that focused on promoting entrepreneurship and educating budding business owners on what resources are available to make their ventures thrive.
"It was overwhelmingly exciting," said Steve Vassallo, CEO of the Terrebonne Economic Development Authority, which helped organize the fest at the Houma-Terrebonne Civic Center along with Louisiana Economic Development.
Organizers said one of the goals going into the event was to have it renewed and make Houma its annual destination. Vassallo confirmed after the first day that it will return to Houma next year and partner with economic development entities in Mississippi.
"The success of this event has been phenomenal. I have seen people of all ages, from all over the state of Louisiana, proceed from session to session with inspired smiles," Vassallo said. "You can just tell that they're ready to tackle their own enterprises, which in turn will stimulate our economy."
The fest included more than 30 business professionals and economic developers lecturing visitors on the realities of fostering a business idea.
Some sought to inspire, such as Madison, Miss., Mayor Mary Hawkins Butler, who told how her inquiring about an old stove pipe as a 12-year-old led her to her first business and ultimately to her eight consecutive four-year terms as mayor.
"It was successful because I was taught about overhead and how to tell the truth about your product and how to treat people that deal with you and that the customer is right," Butler said.
Others sought to impart more logistical information about options available for business start-ups.
"It's not about what you are putting in the budget. You need the grant for something specific. You are serving someone as result of the brand you are making, a changing in attitude in behavior with the grant. That is what you want (to pitch), not what you are buying," said Debi Benoit, Nicholls State University director of Research and Sponsored Programs.
The fest was geared toward those with a business idea they want to make a reality, but Vassallo said he was surprised to see many people with upcoming businesses in the crowd.
"It's very helpful. I wish I would have gone through this before I started my business," said Mary Brieden, who has owned downtown Houma's Funktion Salon for a year. "You always think of start-up help, but there are also tools for those who are already in business."
The event also inspired young people.
"I want to go into medical and I know doctors can have their own practice, so this taught me about what it's like to start a business," said Tyler Legnon, a sophomore at H.L. Bourgeois High School who was mixing time helping run the fest and listening in.
Vassallo said he hopes the fest provided inspiration, education and the reality that starting a business isn't easy.
"They said if you expect to go into a business and be a millionaire you might as well leave," Legnon said.

Riding through dark streets in a collectivo
When we lived in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, in the early 80s, we didn't have a car. We went everywhere in buses or taxis.
Santa Cruz had two types of buses -- micros and collectivos. Micros were small, fast buses, used by residents who could pay a premium fare.
Collectivos were old, slow, full-size buses that transported the masses. Their fares were cheap. Often, the passengers carried huge bundles of their belongings, garden produce, or even live animals.
One night, Dennis and I found ourselves out late and too far from home to walk. We waited at a bus stop, knowing that we needed to take any transportation that came along because the 1:00 A.M. curfew was getting close.
Eventually, a lumbering old collectivo appeared, and it was headed in the direction that we needed to go. We climbed on board and were surprised at the darkness inside. The only light came through the windows. The bus lurched away with a great roar, and we groped for a handhold as we staggered in the aisle.
Even at that late hour, every seat was taken and many passengers were standing. No one was talking. The only sounds were the grinding and groaning of the bus's worn-out gears and engine.
It was summer and the night was warm. Inside the bus, the air had a peculiar, dank odor of unwashed bodies and dirty bundles. It was the smell of hardscrabble third-world poverty, steamed for years.
The bus roared through the shadows of the old, narrow streets, and we struggled to hold our balance when it pitched around corners. As passengers moved to and from the doors, their bodies and burdens bumped against us.
I realized that I was, at that moment, in the most foreign place I had ever been. I was as close to an experience of the life of Bolivia's urban poor as I might ever be. The cloak of darkness over my anglo appearance had made me just another needy, late-night traveler.
"Señora?" A woman offered me a seat. She pulled her billowing skirts closer to make room for me beside her. I gratefully accepted her offer, but I kept my purse tight under my arm on the side away from her. I had been in Bolivia long enough to know how quietly a razor blade could slash into a bag in a moment of jostling.
Soon enough, we recognized landmarks of our neighborhood. We called to the driver and the bus stopped. We got off and became gringos again, scurrying home before curfew. Our fellow passengers rode on into the night.

A thug who threatened and racially abused a fast food shop owner has been jailed for eight weeks.
Chesterfield magistrates' court heard how Bryn Gillie, 21, of Station Road, Whitwell, became abusive to the takeaway owner at The Charcoal Grill, in Clowne.
Prosecuting solicitor Becky Allsop said: "Gillie appeared drunk and aggressive and made comments about the owner being Turkish and not being right with English people and he tried to get others to agree with him.
"The takeaway owner tried to calm him down but the defendant kept making racist comments."
Gillie spat at the man and spat in a salad tray, according to Mrs Allsop, and also took a couple of swings at the complainant but missed.
Mrs Allsop told how the defendant also swore at the complainant who recorded some of the incident on his mobile phone.
CCTV footage also captured Gillie behaving in an aggressive manner, spitting and making haymaker swings at the complainant.
Mrs Allsop added: "Gillie took his shirt off saying he wanted to fight the complainant before smashing the takeaway counter and running out of the shop. He was arrested in an alleyway nearby."
Gillie pleaded guilty to causing racially aggravated damage and using racially aggravated behaviour after the incident on July 12.
Defence solicitor Felicity Clarke said Gillie had been to a carnival and had too much to drink and claimed he knew nothing about the incident.
She said: "He knew nothing about the offence until he watched the footage. He felt very disgusted and in the officers' opinions he was shocked and the defendant described his actions as disgraceful."
The takeaway owner feared the incident may have cost him business.

Opposing Globalization Lyrics
We must oppose globalization.
From the complete destruction of our nation,
We must become the catalyst
For others to join force,
To stop the oppression of our world
For it is getting smaller & smaller.
Day by day, we are living in a controlled grid.
Monitored by the NSA & other forms of Homeland Security.
Mother earth is on a rapid pace to decay.
We live in a festering wasteland.
This is the annihilation of humanity.
Before long this world will be laid to waste.
Countries pushing human tracking chips,
Implants tracking your every move,
A massive revolution must ensue;
So better things await.
The future generations,
The suffering of the people is evident.
The population will have their retribution.
For the plaguing of our nations,
Overthrow the ones who hold power.
Their tyrannical rule must end now.
We must take the steps to prevent it.
As our heads are forced to bow,
The oppressed will no longer be oppressed.

A van driver was ordered to do 100 hours' community work after giving a drugs dealer a lift to a customer - who turned out to be an undercover cop.
Carl Sooki was caught in Operation Verdana, a police initiative to combat drug use around Chesterfield, Derby Crown Court heard on Friday.
He admitted being concerned in the supply of cocaine, a class A drug. Sooki, 27, of Clowne Road, Stanfree, must wear an electronic tag and obey a two-month curfew and pay a £60 government surcharge.
Judge Jonathan Gosling said class A drug dealers could expect to go straight to prison but he told Sooki: "It is impossible to imagine somebody being less seriously implicated in a supply. You were helping this man move house and he asked you for a favour. Initially, you didn't expect it would involve drugs. You did not profit in the sale and you were not directly involved."
Sarah Slater, prosecuting, said Operation Verdana involved undercover police officers contacting suspected dealers.
A police officer, named only as J, sent a text message to a possible dealer. He received a phone call telling him to look out for a large removal van.
This was driven by Sooki, who took no part in the deal. A passenger handed drugs to the officer and received £70 in the incident on October 26 before being arrested.
When police arrested Sooki, he told them he had been helping the other man move house and hired a Luton van, added Miss Slater.

On a Windows Vista or Vindows 7 disk, all versions of the operating system are present, from Starter to Ultimate, and everything in between. So, if you want too upgrade to a more capable version of Windows down the road, all you need to do is pop the Windows disk in, let Windows Anytime Upgrade do its thing, and you're done. It seems like Intel is experimenting with a similar technology... For its processors.

Presentation Title
A Generalized View of Amorphization Resistance in Complex Oxides
On-Site Speaker (Planned)
Abstract Scope
Complex oxides have a number of roles in nuclear energy applications and thus understanding their response to irradiation is critical for predicting performance and developing new materials. In particular, significant work has been devoted to the amorphization response of pyrochlores, a complex oxide related to fluorite that has been identified as a potential nuclear waste form. Previous work has shown a correlation between the amorphization resistance and the ease of cation disorder in chemically different pyrochlores. Here, using transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction, we show that the opposite behavior is observed in another complex oxide, spinels, in which amorphization resistance is inversely correlated to the ability of the cation sublattice to disorder. Using density functional theory and accelerated molecular dynamics, we attribute the different response in these two materials to structural cation vacancies that exist in spinel that facilitate kinetic pathways to relaxation that are not possible in pyrochlore.

Bucknell Alumnus Prefers Rival Lehigh on Free Speech
October 20, 2009
Bucknell University alumnus Charles Mitchell has a strong piece in today's Morning Call (Allentown, PA) regarding the administration's wrongheaded censorship of political activity by the Bucknell University Conservatives Club (BUCC). Because of Bucknell's actions, the school is on FIRE's Red Alert list, which warns students to think twice before applying for admission to Bucknell if they value free speech. Mitchell, who also is a trustee of the Alliance for a Better Bucknell, concludes that despite a healthy rivalry between his alma mater and Lehigh University, Lehigh is the winner when it comes to free speech: [I read in] Lehigh's student […]» Read More

Meet Joseph Ng
Joseph Ng, senior administrative assistant in the International Student Programs (ISP), is in his eighth year working at De Anza. Prior to his current position, Ng worked at College of San Mateo for 12 years in student services areas such as admissions, assessment, scholarship and counseling.
As the person overseeing all laws and regulations governing international students enrolled at De Anza, he works with various federal agencies, such as the Department of State, Homeland Security, Immigration, Social Security and DMV.
"He has to be on top of all changes in the laws governing international students and deal with huge bureaucracies," says ISP Supervisor Marilyn Cheung. "This is not an easy job, but Joseph has a positive attitude and always gets the job done."
Ng says the best things about his job are meeting with students from all over the world and the endless interpretation and decoding of U.S. immigration regulations. "It is always exciting to meet students and to learn about new cultures every single day. And the frequent and endless updates from the Department of Homeland Security make sure my job is never boring," Ng says.
"Joseph is multi-talented," says Cheung. "He often volunteers to help his colleagues with graphic design or computer and audio/visual equipment." When the tax season starts, Ng also helps international students with their tax questions, she adds.
In his spare time, Ng practices the Chinese martial art of Gung Fu, Lion Dance and Dragon Dance. "I have been participating in the annual Chinese New Year Parade in San Francisco for the last 20 years," Ng says. "I was invited to judge at Disney's International Martial Arts Festival in Orlando, Florida, two years ago." And in June 2009, Ng performed at the U.S. Wushu Team Trials' Master Exhibition held at De Anza's gymnasium.

At the beginning of the last century American philosopher George Santayana famously observed: "Those who can't remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
The U.S. House recently confirmed that Santayana's warning about the danger of repeating the history we don't, can't or won't remember applies not only to ordinary mortals in the last century but to members of Congress in this century, too.
Under media radar, the Democrat-sponsored "Prevention of Violent Radicalism and Homegrown Terrorism" bill (H.R. 1955) passed the House at the end of October by a vote of 404 (including the entire Minnesota delegation) to 6. The bill was tagged as noncontroversial by the House leadership and is pending before the Senate. For those senators and citizens who remember history, the bill should be controversial, indeed.
Promoted as a relatively innocuous public safety measure, the bill directs money to the Department of Homeland Security for research on homegrown terrorist-Americans in our midst. While this may seem to make sense, the way the bill describes the "hidden enemy," and the powers inherent in the 10-member investigative commission it establishes, should raise concerns among Americans who remember history, no matter what their political leanings.
According to the bill, "homegrown terrorists" can be anyone who "... intimidate(s) or coerce(s) the United States government, the civilian population ... or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social belief," a definition broad enough to include Americans who organize mass marches on Washington to "coerce" changes in government policy.
The bill defines "violent radicals" as Americans who "...promot(e) extremist belief system(s) for the purpose of facilitating ideologically based violence to advance political, religious or social change..." - in other words, Americans who have not yet done anything illegal but who, commissioners believe, have thoughts that might lead to violence.
The bill does not target all thoughts (belief systems) that might result in violence, but only thoughts leading to "... force or violence ... to promote political, religious or social beliefs," which is exactly the kind of violence that might result whenever people gather to demonstrate for or against important issues, such as the Iraq war or abortion.
For at least 18 months this "Homegrown-Terrorism and Extremist Belief Commission" will be required to hold congressional hearings around the country, to uncover Americans with "political, religious or social" concerns who commissioners think might be "extreme" and/or potentially violent, whether any of these Americans has committed a crime or not. Virtually any politically, socially or religiously active person or group could be targeted by the commission to find out who is, and who is not, one of the "hidden enemy" among us.
Witnesses who refuse to testify can expect to be held in "contempt of Congress," as former members of the Bush administration like Harriet Myers have learned recently, and jailed. Witnesses who do testify but say things that commissioners or their staff think are not true can be charged with perjury, or lying to a federal official, as "Scooter" Libby found out. Either way, noncooperative witnesses can face up to a 10-year sentence.
Members of suspect political, religious and social groups, or Americans who might even know people the commission suspects - which certainly will include nonmainstream political parties, certain public advocacy groups, some churches and many mosques - can expect the "commissioners" will want to know ... "are you now, or have you ever been ... associated with extremists, violent radicals or homegrown terrorists?"
For those who do remember history, this should sound uncomfortably familiar. These are the kinds of questions Americans were compelled to answer when testifying before another "legislative commission" during the anti-communist McCarthy-era witch-hunts.
In 1938, the House set up the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) to find the dangerous Americans among us, which provided the model for Sen. Joe McCarthy's ideological purges based on accusation and innuendo. But HUAC lasted long after McCarthy passed from the scene, and it was busily investigating anti-Vietnam War and civil rights activists when it was disbanded as part of post-Watergate reforms in 1975.
During its 40-year life, HUAC was used by Richard Nixon to catapult himself into national prominence in the Alger Hiss case. Noncooperative HUAC witnesses like the "Hollywood 10" were jailed for contempt of Congress. Others were blacklisted from employment, including Arthur Miller, Paul Robeson, Lillian Hellman, Dashiell Hammett, Clifford Odets, Pete Seeger, Richard Wright and many others.
In Minnesota, the brother of J. Robert Oppenheimer (the "father" of the atomic bomb) lost his faculty job at the U for failing to "come clean" before HUAC.
HUAC-inspired "terror," that one's ideas or political associations would come under HUAC scrutiny, swept the country. And, once targeted, witnesses knew there was no escape except to accuse one's friends and colleagues, and many did. The careers of thousands of Americans were ruined.
Is it possible that the members of Congress have forgotten or don't know their own history?
If this "Son of HUAC" becomes law, any political, religious or social activist is fair game for HUAC-like congressional hearings. And, we can expect that any person or group preparing to do anything other than watch TV during the upcoming Republican Convention in St. Paul will be hearing from the commission ... and will have to be prepared to answer the famous question ... "are you now, or have you ever been...?" And also be prepared to face jail for refusing to answer, or for getting the answer "wrong."
Which brings to mind the trenchant observations of yet another famous American philosopher of the last century, the great and wise Yogi Berra, who once said,
"It seems like déjàvu all over again ...."
And, so it does.

Just saw this on slashdot. Has some pretty serious implications . . .
AMSTERDAM - The free software association said on Tuesday it would start adapting rules for development and use of free software by including penalties against those who patent software or use anti-piracy technology.http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9225821/"Software patents are clearly a menace to society and innovation. We like this to be more explicit. The basic idea is that if someone patents software, he loses the right to use free software. It's like a patent retaliation clause," Greve said.

On December 6, 2012, OCR resolved a Title VI compliance review of the De Queen School District with an Agreement that addresses the compliance issues found in OCR's investigation. OCR's review examined whether English language learner (ELL) students are denied equal educational opportunities in the District's programs and services and thus subjected to discrimination on the basis of national origin. OCR concluded that the District was not in compliance with Title VI in a number of areas, including the identification and provision of language services to ELL students, parental notification regarding ELL services, staffing, instructional materials, exiting of ELL students, services for students with disabilities who may also be ELL, and communication with limited English proficient parents.

So which one is the right one, i.e. the one Hasbro has intended for us to have.
What date stamps do you guys have? My brown driver was stamped 51571. Someone posted on RS that both his drivers had the same date stamp. I don't think Habro or LFL know WTF the right paint scheme is for this character!
How do you read the date stamps, anyway...?
That date stamp alone kind of blows a lot of the talk that it "takes x ammount of time to get y figure to retail" ******** too I think... I guess some fibbing for public relations was needed?I'd like both the green and white head variants just for diversity's sake, however I've seen neither at retail yet. I certainly hope one's not a total biznitch to find though, as I'd like a few of both.How's that guy look on an RT? I got a #6 Clone on one and he looks as good (or better) than the pack-in figure does.

A Santa Clara engineer, who once worked for Apple's co-founder, was charged on Friday with threats connected to State Sen. Leland Yee, who was sent an email a month ago by a man who claimed he was a "trained sniper."
Court documents show that Everett Basham, 45, - a onetime employee of Steve Wozniak a decade ago - faces 12 charges. The charging document for the first time revealed how many and what kind of guns were allegedly found at Basham's home.
The full list of charges include: threats to commit a crime resulting in death or great bodily injury, possessing a destructive device, possessing materials to make a destructive device, forging a drivers license, carrying a concealed weapon, carrying a loaded firearm in a vehicle and possessing assault weapons. The types of weapons listed: a Barret .416 rifle, a Franchi SPAS 12, which is an Italian combat shotgun, and a 9 mm SigSauer pistol.
The 12-count complaint states that Basham made the threat while he was armed with the Barrett.
Basham is also accused of having a "modified bird bomb" that was greater than .60-caliber, which is a felony, prosecutors said. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives describes bird bombs as explosive pest control devices.
The charging documents do not specify mention that Yee was a victim of the threat.
Basham, who appeared in shackles, was told to return to court on Feb. 21 to enter a plea. He is being held without bail.
Basham was arrested Tuesday night by the California Highway Patrol, who knew of a very detailed threat made against Yee - a Democratic senator from San Francisco about four weeks ago.
Explosives were detonated on two separate days this week at Basham's home on Humbolt Avenue.
Basham has no other known criminal record in Santa Clara County.
At a news conference Thursday, Yee was very upfront about the threats:
"The author of the email specifically stated that if I did not cease our legislative efforts to stop gun violence that he would assassinate me in or around the Capitol, Yee said. "He stated that he was a trained sniper and his email detailed certain weapons he possessed."
The threat was unlike any Yee had ever received before: "It was not a racist rant on my ethnicity or culture, but instead it was very deliberate and specific. As a psychologist, I was deeply concerned by the calculating nature of this email."
Yee said that he was worried about this particular threat because it was very detailed and laid out an exact plan for harm. He forwarded the email to the CHP and the Senate Sergeant of Arms.
Yee's SB47 would prohibit the use of so-called bullet buttons and other devices that allow for swift reloading of military-style assault weapons.
Yee was threatened in 2011, when he received a fax from an apparent Rush Limbaugh fan. The fax called him a Marxist and made some racist remarks about his Chinese heritage.
Basham's LinkedIn profile shows that he has owned his own company, Labrent, since 1997; and that he had worked as a senior product engineer at Logitech and and engineer/scientist at Hewlett-Packard. NBC Bay Area was not able to confirm those places of employment.
But Basham's employment as vice president of woz.com about ten years ago for five months was confirmed by Wozniak himself.
In an email to NBC Bay Area on Wednesday, Wozniak said he really liked Basham.
"Everett is a brilliant engineer who has contributed insightful and creative ideas to me," Wozniak wrote. "Everett left ... primarily due to his disagreeing with the structure of the company under venture capital. I admire Everett's thinking very highly. I would classify Everett as distrustful of the government, as many of us are. He was a champion for the common person. Everett never spoke as a person who could or would commit a crime. I was honored to be at his wedding."
