Federal prosecutors charged 50 people on Tuesday in a #$25 million scheme to help celebrities, CEOs and other wealthy Americans cheat their children’s way into elite universities, including
Yale, Georgetown and Stanford.

The charges filed today against employees of USC are disturbing and the alleged activity is absolutely wrong. I am saddened that these people would abuse their positions of trust and, as the government has alleged, victimize USC in the process. There is no option other than zero tolerance for this type of behavior. As a result, USC has fired the alleged wrongdoers. ~ Rick J. Caruso Chair of the USC Board of Trustees.

Tipster in college admissions scandal was Yale father Morrie Tobin who was under investigation for securities fraud; in effort to gain leniency, he offered a tip about how a #Yale #soccer #coach sought a #bribe in return for getting his daughter into the #IvyLeagueSchool. Tobin told authorities that the women’s soccer coach at Yale University sought money from him in return for getting his daughter into the school.
THERE IS NO SIDE DOOR THERE IS ONLY CLASS / STATUS / WEALTH the wealthy and undeserving ALWAYS get into schools. Power placed in the hands of people who shouldn’t have it. Colleges get accredited in the first place to serve the “common good” that is the contract.
SATs are far more useful at predicting a candidate’s racial and economic background, information that is already readily available to college admissions boards. And while many colleges and universities have intended to course-correct by eliminating standardized testing requirements, SAT and ACT scores still factor heavily into most of the elite schools’ admissions decisions — which is why such an integral part of Singer’s alleged scam was geared towards bribing proctors to changing kids’ test answers to raise their scores for them.

How to help keep children from getting angry? How Inuit Parents Teach Kids To Control Their Anger.
Moms mention one golden rule: Don’t shout or yell at small children.
The culture views scolding — or even speaking to children in an angry voice — as inappropriate. Parents who control their own anger are helping their children learn to do the same. The Inuit’s no-yelling policy is the secret of raising kids that internalized discipline for themselves.
How The Inuit Teach Kids Not To Get Angry How To Discipline Your Kids Without Yelling
The PURPOSE OF THE STORY NOT JUST THE STORYTELLING ITSELF HAS TO FOCUS ON EXPLAINING SOMETHING THAT IS UPSETTING FOR THE CHILD. FIGURING THAT OUT — SPEAKING TO THAT THING – THAT IS WHAT MAKES CHILDREN CALMER.
Briggs quickly realized something remarkable was going on in these families: The adults had an extraordinary ability to control their anger.
“They never acted in anger toward me, although they were angry with me an awful lot,” Briggs told the Canadian Broadcasting Corp. in an interview.
Even just showing a smidgen of frustration or irritation was considered weak and childlike, Briggs observed. By contrast, Briggs seemed like a wild child, even though she was trying very hard to control her anger. “My ways were so much cruder, less considerate and more impulsive,” she told the CBC. “[I was] often impulsive in an antisocial sort of way. I would sulk or I would snap or I would do something that they never did.”
Using #oralStories passed down from one generation of Inuit to the next, designed to sculpt kids’ behaviors in the moment. Sometimes even save their lives.
1) Teach kids to stay away from the ocean, where they could easily drown Instead of yelling, “Don’t go near the water!” Inuit parents take a pre-emptive approach and tell kids a special story that will explain the consequence of getting lost and separated from the family. The story is about what’s inside the water.
“It’s the sea monster,” Jaw says, with a giant pouch on its back just for little kids. “If a child walks too close to the water, the monster will put you in his pouch, drag you down to the ocean and adopt you out to another family,” Jaw says.
2) Not listening to Parents story ear inspections because too much ear wax
3) Don’t ask before taking food, long fingers could reach out and grab you
There is no scolding, no punishment, no time outs, instead the parents waited for a calm peaceful moment and begin to
TELL A STORY -PARENT’S PUT ON A PLAY – A LITTLE DRAMA
The Parent would reenact the child having a tantrum including the consequences of their behavior.
During the Drama the parent always had a playful fun tone. And the drama typically started by trying to provoke the child . Now the child has to think……. what should i do? Should I hit Mom? so if they do take the rock and hits Mama she reenacts the consequences and keep the kid thinking …. did the child want to hurt mom? did they want to hurt mom’s feelings?
Parent’s keep putting on these little plays until the child understands and learns why not to hit.
Plays – are the little dramas parents use to teach kids to keep their cool, to be strong mentally and emotionally. Not to react and be provoked easily. Kids get practice internalizing control over their anger because once you’re angry it’s hard to stop.

How much less California spends on each public school student than other states.
$25.4k per student in NYC, $16.7k in PA and $10.4k here in California.
How do young families keep moving to CA?
Mostly True: You are shocked because the stats are bunk. Look at how much California teachers make (2nd highest in US) and then ask how overall spending could rank 41st? Answer: the 41st stat, like the $10.4k per student stat, has been helpfully “adjusted” to eliminate salary differences.

“Revenues generated from lottery have very little or no impact on overall education spending,” said Lucy Dadayan, a senior policy analyst at the Nelson A. Rockefeller Institute of Government, an Albany, New York, think tank. The reason: State legislatures often use the millions of dollars that come in from the lottery as an opportunity to reallocate other funds intended for schools from the state’s general revenue, making the overall education budget barely higher than it was before lottery money was added. “The state legislators added the funding in to the budget, and then they take it out,” said John O’Neil, communications director for the Virginia Education Association, an organization of more than 50,000 teachers and school professionals.

@DanaGoldstein A few months ago I was interviewing a college admissions coach who told me the following about how big of a donation it takes to get a child into an Ivy no questions asked: “There’s a certain magic number. It’s way higher than people think: $10 million.”
“This case is about the widening corruption of elite college admissions through the steady application of wealth combined with fraud,” Andrew Lelling, the U.S. attorney for the District of Massachusetts, said at a news conference. According to Lelling, the ringleader of the scam is William Singer, owner of a college counseling service called Key Worldwide Foundation, who accepted bribes totaling $25 million from parents between 2011 and 2018 “to guarantee their children’s admission to elite schools.”
“The parents are a catalog of wealth and privilege,” Lelling said. “They include, for example, the CEOs of private and public companies, successful securities and real estate investors, two well-known actresses, a famous fashion designer and the co-chairman of a global law firm.”
Also named as defendants in the indictment are Robert Zangrillo, founder and CEO of the private investment firm Dragon Global; Bill Glashan, a businessman and international private equity investor; and Gordon Caplan, a New York attorney.

Yes: a flying, jet-powered motorcycle As spec’ed out, the commercial speeder will weigh 231 lbs and be powered by four jet engines fueled with kerosene, diesel or Jet-A fuel. An ultralight version of the speeder will fly 60mph and won’t require a pilot’s license; alternatively, an experimental version of the craft will be able to fly over 150mph, but will require a formal license to fly. That aircraft should also have 30 minutes of flight time with 1200lbs of max thrust and a flight ceiling of 15,000 feet, though JetPack fully admits that most of its customers won’t need that…

NYC Media Lab newletter – https://nycmedialab.org/data/ How AI Will Rewire Us
Nicholas A. Christakis, Sterling Professor of Social and Natural Science at Yale and author of Blueprint: The Evolutionary Origins of a Good Society, believes AI is the only general purpose technology (GPT) that will fundamentally change our relations towards each other. If you look at any other GPT – the steam engine, electricity, the internet – these have changed everything around us except our “love, friendship, cooperation, and teaching” – what Christakis calls our evolutionary social suite. In this Atlantic piece, he explores how AI will be the first GPT to affect our social suite. Christakis noticed some peculiar things at his Yale lab. For one, when you include a cheerful bot who admits to occasional mistakes in a group assignment, the humans in the group work better together, vs. groups with bland robots. This holds true in larger experiments, with thousands of participants: “groups with mistake-prone bots consistently outperformed groups containing bots that did not make mistakes”. ~ Joly MacFie
John Gilmore **Copyright seizure approaching** SpaCCS 2019 CFP (10+SIs): The 12th International Conference on Security, Privacy and Anonymity in Computation, Communication and Storage
Don’t submit your paper to this conference! When researchers refuse to
supply their papers to the publishers who extort monopoly fees from
academic librarians, they have found the easiest way to tear down these
monopolies.
If you submit any paper to this conference, you will be forced to assign your entire copyright in the paper to “Springer Nature
Switzerland AG”, now and forever, for their profit and your loss
and the public’s loss (see below).
Jun Feng is a program chair. He should know to warn authors that
the whole conference is a scam on academic authors, which steals their
copyrights in order to extract large fees from academic libraries. But
perhaps he did not mention this because he’s helping to run the scam.
I recommend publishing your work in Open Access conferences and journals in which (1) you are free to retain your copyright and control your rights, and (2) the public is free to read your paper without paying exhorbitant fees to a walled-garden publisher that prevents public access to your scholarship. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_access .
For example, the USENIX
Association runs many respected conferences and does Open Access
publication of their proceedings (https://www.usenix.org/). The Public
Library of Science journals are also Open Access
(https://www.plos.org/). Open access publishing increases your impact,
because all potential readers can actually read your paper. Many
funders and academic institutions *require* that your work be published
with open access, because they have seen how the academic publishing
monopoly has damaged academic libraries (and science in general).
