Mass. Senate President Faces Tough Task
(AP) 02/10/2004 04:43 AM
AP - When his fellow lawmakers elected Robert Travaglini president of the Massachusetts Senate last year, one of the Boston Democrat's strengths they pointed to was his history as a consensus builder. Those skills will be sorely tested Wednesday when Travaglini takes gavel in hand as the presiding officer of a constitutional convention that could help decide the fate of gay marriage in Massachusetts.

Los Angeles Times - FT. LEAVENWORTH, Kan. — American soldiers who defeated the Iraqi regime 15 months ago received virtually none of the critical spare parts they needed to keep their tanks and Bradley fighting vehicles running. They ran chronically short of food, water and ammunition. Their radios often failed them. Their medics had to forage for medical supplies, artillery gunners had to cannibalize parts from captured Iraqi guns and intelligence units provided little useful information about the enemy.

The new president of MIT

The new president of MIT 08/27/2004 01:40 PM

An Associated Press story about MIT's president, Susan Hockfield, devotes a lot of space to her sex and the sex ratio among MIT faculty members.  What is more interesting to me is Hockfield's background as a life scientist.  Her last research and teaching position was at Yale Medical School.  She is not an engineer.  She was never a computer programmer.  MIT's current president, Chuck Vest, was a mechanical engineer.  His predecessor, Paul Gray, was an electrical engineer.  His predecessor, Jerry Wiesner, was an electrical engineer.  (See http://libraries.mit.edu/archives/mithistory/histories-offic es/pres.html for more detail.)

Hockfield has a good opportunity to realign MIT with the national mood.  Harvard University, for example, nearly a century ago was host to the world's #1 department of civil engineering.  The president of Harvard at the time looked around and decided that civil engineering wasn't going to be important to the United States.  He shut down the department and fired all the faculty members, including those with tenure.  There are plenty of things that folks at MIT do that (a) attract reasonable research funding, (b) are among the best projects of their kind worldwide, and (c) are things that nobody cares about anymore or that are done just as well by Industry.

After she has cleared out some space on campus what new initiatives might she push?  How about a medical school?  MIT has one of the world's best biology departments but, except for some ties to Harvard Medical School, very little in the practical side of medicine.MIT could probably do better work in biology if there were medical colleagues close at hand with whom to collaborate.  MIT's engineering research would take on new relevance if it were tied to patient care.

Starting a medical school will be a huge challenge, of course.  Despite the growth in the U.S. population the American Medical Association has generally opposed new med schools due to the fact that more doctors might lead to lower average salaries.  But if there is to be a new medical school in the United States where better than at MIT, where a random door in the bio department might very well open into the office of a winner of the Nobel prize for "physiology or medicine"?

The U. S. Secret Service is going to extraordinary lengths to ensure the safety of George W. Bush's visit to London - including some not insignificant structural changes to the Palace (which have not as of yet been approved). The article claims that "There will be more armed men on the streets of London this week than at any time since the end of the Second World War." British security officials further describe operations as has having been "hijacked by the US secret service."

Everyone knows there's a possibility of violence against the president, especially in light of recent events. A measure of security is thus justified. However, are economic concerns being considered? Now, I have the utmost respect for the president's life - as much as I do for just about anybody. I hate the callousness of associating any sort of price on human life. But when security measures require 5,000 police officers and £4,000,000 (that's merely the cost footed by UK taxpayers, mind you), have we not yet reached the point where that money would have been better spent? -especially when the U. S. executive branch has a very robust official policy of succession in place. It's not like the government will suddenly evaporate if the president were to be killed.

The President of the Internet | CEO Blues: Finally, a goal worthy of my time.

Recently there has been some debate as to who the President of the Internet is and how they came to power. The concerned parties mutually agreed that because Google is unbiased and somewhat democratic it would be used to determine the current President of the Internet. Whoever holds the top search result for “President of the Internet” will in fact be the President of the Internet.

RabbIt is the mutating, caching webproxy which is used to speed up surfing over slow links like modems. It does this by removing advertising and background images and scaling down images to low quality JPEGs. RabbIT is written in Java and should be able to run on any platform. It does depend upon an image converter if imagescaleing is on. The recommended image converter is "convert" from the ImageMagick package.

Rabbit Robot Walks into the News

Rabbit Robot Walks into the News 04/18/2005 06:14 PM
University of Michigan researcher Jessy Grizzle has made the news again with his dynamically walking robot named Rabbit. A CNN technology story showcases the robot, which has no actual feet. The legs end in narrow tips to make sure the robot doesn't rely on big, flat feet to keep from falling. For more than five years, the Rabbit team has worked on a developing dynamic walking algorithms that will allow the robot to move, walk, and even run like humans do. "The concept of stability is reduced to two formulas", say Grizzle, who hopes the work will not only lead to walking robots but to bionic legs that can automatically match the gait of their wearer. For more information including research papers and video of the robot in action, visit Jessy Grizzle's bipedal locomotion website.
