Terms of Service

There are a few ground rules for participation in LAGbook. Please respect these rules, and each other.

Be civil.
No personal attacks. Do not feel compelled to defend your honor in public.

Stay on topic in Forums.
Please pay attention to the topic of your messages, and check that it still relates to its parent. Off-topic discussion not taken to private email is eligible for removal.

Be kind to newcomers.
Newcomers may be annoying. But lots of valued contributors started out this way, and treating newcomers kindly makes them more likely to turn into the valuable community members we all know and love.
So while you don't have to humor them or suffer them gladly, and it's fine to point out when they make mistakes, point newcomers in the right direction in addition to turning them away from the wrong ones, and be kind to them in the process of correcting their transgressions.

Let sleeping dogs lie.
It's tempting to revisit controversial decisions you do not agree with, but it's rarely productive to do so, since it almost always results in the same heated, lengthy, and time/energy draining discussions leading to the same conclusion that was reached in the last round.
Therefore, for issues already raised, discussed, and decided upon, reopen the discussion only if you have significant new information that would reasonably prompt reconsideration of the original decision.

Ignore spammers.
Spam is a blight upon the face of the net. Nobody likes it. However, it is hard to avoid. Despite our best efforts, you will occasionally see spam on our site. However, don't forget that complaining about spam in public increases noise, but not signal. It may make you feel better, but it doesn't help.

Identify your subject matter.
Not everyone has time reading all forum and wiki postings. To ensure that your message reach the right people at timely manner, identify your subject matter clearly in the subject line. Subjects like a question and problem are not very helpful.

No unsubscribe messages.
Unfortunately, this bears repeating.

No test messages.
Please do not send test messages to the forum. You can, however, create test pages on the Wiki, but please don't forget to delete them after you finish learning.

Paterno still honored at Brown University, despite scandal

Paterno still honored at Brown University, despite scandal
US-USA-PATERNO:Paterno still honored at Brown University, despite scandal

(Reuters) - The late Joe Paterno is keeping his place in Brown University's Athletic Hall of Fame despite his role in the cover-up of the sex abuse scandal at Penn State University.

Paterno and other Penn State officials have been faulted for their alleged concealment of a long history of sex abuse by former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, and seeking to protect the school's image at the expense of Sandusky's young victims.

But in a statement issued on Thursday, Rhode Island-based Brown said the independent board that oversees its Hall of Fame had voted not to remove Paterno from his place of honor.

"His election to the Hall of Fame recognized Paterno's outstanding career as a player at Brown, quarterbacking the celebrated varsity football team of 1949, and his contribution to college sports," the statement said.

It stressed that by acknowledging Paterno's past achievements the board did not intend "to diminish the tragic events that occurred at Penn State toward the end of Coach Paterno's career."

Paterno died of lung cancer in January at age 85. A member of the class of 1950 at Brown, he was inducted into its Hall of Fame in 1978.

Lady Gaga gets live tattoo at perfume launch

NEW YORK (AP) ? Lady Gaga launched her debut perfume while being inside a giant size perfume bottle.

The avant garde pop star was in a large bottle ? a replica of her "Fame" fragrance ? appearing in the transparent glass where attendees took photos and watched the singer get a tattoo on her neck.

The entertainer entered the the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum on New York's Upper East Side Thursday night on top of a convertible. She posed for pictures and interacted with some fans.

Inside, she laid in the bottle in a sparkly top, black skirt and red wig. Then she took off some clothing and a wig ? now appearing in lingerie, including a thong ? and began receiving a tattoo of the back of her neck (she shaved the bottom half of the back of her head this week).

Gaga applied make-up and played on an iPad inside the bottle, where she was joined by four others. Edith Piaf played in background, as did David Bowie's "Fame" and various songs that featured Kanye West. She got her tattoo ? and danced in her seat ? as West's latest hit "Mercy" blasted in the background.

The masquerade black tie event featured a few hundred people, mostly dressed with eye masks and headgear. Celebrity attendees included Yoko Ono, Marc Jacobs, Paris Hilton, Michael Strahan, Jason Wu and Lindsay Lohan, who arrived late for the event.

Gaga also debuted a short film for the fragrance in collaboration with director Steven Klein.

The Grammy-winning singer released her multiplatinum debut, "The Fame," in 2008. That was followed by the platinum-selling albums "The Fame EP" and last year's "Born This Way."

Strange Mystery Spheres on Mars Baffle Scientists

A strange picture of odd, spherical rock formations on Mars from NASA's Opportunity rover has scientists scratching their heads over what exactly they're looking at.

The new Mars photo by Opportunity shows a close-up of a rock outcrop called Kirkwood covered in blister-like bumps that mission scientists can't yet explain. At first blush, the formations appear similar to so-called Martian "blueberries" ? iron-rich spherical formations first seen by Opportunity in 2004 ? but they actually differ in several key ways, scientist said.

"This is one of the most extraordinary pictures from the whole mission," said rover mission principal investigator Steve Squyres of Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., in a statement. "Kirkwood is chock full of a dense accumulation of these small spherical objects. Of course, we immediately thought of the blueberries, but this is something different. We never have seen such a dense accumulation of spherules in a rock outcrop on Mars."

The new photo by Opportunity is actually a mosaic of four images taken by a microscope-like imager on its robotic arm, and then stitched together like puzzle pieces by scientists on Earth.

Opportunity on Mars

The Mars rover Opportunity is currently exploring a location known as Cape York along the western rim of a giant Martian crater called Endeavour. Opportunity is one of two golf cart-size NASA rovers that landed on Mars in January 2004 (Spirit was the other) to explore different landing sites. ?

The solar-powered rovers were initially expected to last just 90 days on Mars, but each survived for years on the Red Planet. Spirit stopped communicating with Earth in 2010, but Opportunity is still operational.

Despite its advanced age, Opportunity is still pumping out new discoveries after more than eight years on Mars. The rover first spotted Martian blueberries soon after its landing in 2004. The blueberries are actually concretions created by minerals in water that settled into sedimentary rock.

Opportunity has seen Martian blueberries at many of its science sites during its Red Planet exploits, but the bumpy, spherical formations on the Kirkwood rock represent something new, researchers said. In Opportunity's new photo, many of the strange features are broken, revealing odd concentric circles inside.

"They seem to be crunchy on the outside, and softer in the middle," Squyres said. "They are different in concentration. They are different in structure. They are different in composition. They are different in distribution. So, we have a wonderful geological puzzle in front of us." [7 Biggest Mars Mysteries]

Squyres said he and his science team have several theories, but none that truly stand out as the best explanation for what could have created the weird bumps on Mars.

"It's going to take a while to work this out, so the thing to do now is keep an open mind and let the rocks do the talking," he said.

A Martian spring

The Kirkwood outcrop is just one science pit stop at Cape York for Opportunity. Mission scientists have already picked out another interesting rock outcrop nearby, a pale patch that may contain tantalizing clay minerals, for possibly study after Opportunity completes its current analysis.

Meanwhile, the spring equinox is approaching on Mars, ensuring increasing levels of sunshine for Opportunity's solar arrays.

"The rover is in very good health considering its 8-1/2 years of hard work on the surface of Mars," said rover project manager John Callas of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., in a statement. "Energy production levels are comparable to what they were a full Martian year ago, and we are looking forward to productive spring and summer seasons of exploration."

While Opportunity explores the plains of its Meridiani Planum location, NASA's Mars rover Curiosity is poised to resume driving toward its first long-distance destination inside Gale Crater. The rover, which has completed its final health checks, is headed for a site called Glenelg near the base of the 3-mile (5-kilometer) Mount Sharp, a mountain that rises from the center of its Gale Crater landing site.

Curiosity landed on Mars on Aug. 5 and is expected to spend two years studying Gale Crater to determine if the region could have ever supported microbial life.

Romney trying to shift back to economy

NEW YORK (AP) ? Republican Mitt Romney is trying to shift the focus of the presidential campaign away from anti-American violence overseas and back to the economy, accusing President Barack Obama of ignoring Chinese trade violations and pointing to a new Federal Reserve effort to bolster the economy as evidence of Obama's weak policies.

Obama, campaigning in the aftermath of the death of four Americans at a consulate in Libya, is playing up his role as commander in chief, vowing that "no act of terror will go unpunished."

Following a quick fundraising trip to New York, Romney was headed Friday to Ohio, which has been essential to any Republican seeking the White House. Obama carried the perennial battleground state in 2008, but it remains in the toss-up category and could again play a pivotal role in the election.

Obama returned to Washington late Thursday after a two-day trip to Nevada and Colorado and planned to wrap himself in Olympic glory on Friday, meeting with members of the U.S. Olympics and Paralympics teams at the White House. Romney has reminded voters of his work leading the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics out of financial turmoil, while Obama has embraced the all-American images of the Olympics team, cheering on their success during rallies last month.

In a Virginia suburb of Washington, Romney returned to his emphasis on the economy, promising to crack down on China. His campaign released a new television ad claiming that China has outpaced the United States in new manufacturing jobs since Obama took office.

The White House responded, saying that all of the actions the administration has initiated at the World Trade Organization to rein in China have been successful. Obama's campaign said Obama has brought as many cases challenging China trade policies in 3 1/2 years as former President George W. Bush did in eight.

Romney also seized on the Fed's new attempt to jumpstart the economy, saying it showed that Obama's economic agenda has not succeeded. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke outlined plans to spend $40 billion a month to buy mortgage bonds and keep short-term interest rates at record lows through mid-2015 as a way to revitalize a slow-growing economy with an unemployment rate of 8.1 percent.

"What Bernanke's doing is saying that what the president's saying is wrong," Romney said in an interview with ABC's "Good Morning America." ''The president's saying the economy's making progress, coming back. Bernanke's saying, 'No, it's not. I've got to print more money."

The former Massachusetts governor also said in the ABC interview that he wasn't worried about various polls, calling it "politics." He said he believes the election will be decided by people "who are in the middle" and said he thinks his message about creating jobs will appeal to them.

He said he's looking forward to a series of debates with Obama next month and said he thinks his challenge will be to get his message across to the voters.

"The president tends to ? how shall I say it? ? say things that are not true," he said. Romney conceded that "beating an incumbent is never easy" and said that Obama "exudes an aura of likeability."

"I think he's going to say a lot of things that are not accurate," Romney said, adding that he doesn't want to "spend my time correcting things that are not accurate."

Obama campaigned Thursday in Golden, Colo., telling his audience that his administration would do "whatever is necessary to protect all Americans who are serving abroad. In the wake of an attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three aides, Obama vowed that "those who killed our fellow Americans" will be brought to justice.

The Obama campaign continued to hammer Romney on Friday for refusing to release his tax returns. In vetting candidates on his short list for a running mate, a new Obama web video says, Romney demanded to examine 10 years of tax returns. The video goes on to list five possible reasons Romney has made only one year of tax returns public.

Romney keeps millions of dollars of his wealth in foreign tax havens and pays a lower tax rate than most middle-class Americans by aggressively taking advantage of tax loopholes that are available only to the rich, the Obama campaign says. The video concludes that the No. 1 reason he won't release more returns is that "he thinks coming clean will hurt him in the election."

Romney spent his Thursday evening raising cash in the wealthy neighborhoods of Long Island, N.Y., first at the home of hedge fund manager Lee Ainslie, and then at the home of Robert Rosenthal, chairman of an investment banking firm. He was to have another fundraiser in New York on Friday morning before heading to Ohio. Romney's campaign had no immediate details on his cash haul from the New York swing.

Republicans also awaited an Obama administration report, expected to be released Friday, on how it would implement $110 billion in across-the-board cuts in defense and domestic spending due to take effect Jan. 2. The threatened cuts would kick in if Congress and the White House, by year's end, fail to reach a deal to cut the budget deficit by $1.2 trillion over the next decade.
