Colloquium: Lisa Pérez, "From the Throne to the Kitchen Stove: LGBT Lives in Black Atlantic Traditions"
November 3, 2017 November 3, 2017 Tony Chabolla
November 8, 2017 @ 3:00 pm – 4:30 pm America/Los Angeles Timezone
Humanities and Social Sciences Building
Barbara Holdrege
In this talk Lisa Pérez will discuss the highly valorized and varied roles played by LGBT practitioners of Afro-Diasporic religions such as Haitian Vodou, Brazilian Candomblé, and Cuban Lucumí. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork, interviews, and archival research, she will argue that culturally-specific configurations of gender and sexuality have combined to produce religions that are "female normative" and gay-friendly yet are somewhat hostile to transgender and gender nonbinary/nonconforming people. Dr. Pérez will conclude by discussing the implications of her findings for the writing of LGBT religious history.
Elizabeth Pérez is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at UCSB. Her first book, Religion in the Kitchen: Cooking, Talking, and the Making of Black Atlantic Traditions, was published in 2016 by NYU Press as a "signature book" in its North American Religions Series. Honored as a finalist for the 2017 Albert J. Raboteau Prize for the Best Book in Africana Religions, Religion in the Kitchen is the winner of the 2017 Clifford Geertz Prize in the Anthropology of Religion.

Whoopi Goldberg Denies Doubling Down On "Hurtful" Holocaust Remarks
The actress was suspended from 'The View' in February for her initial controversial statements.

Whoopi Goldberg has denied doubling down on previous controversial comments regarding the Holocaust.
During an interview with The Sunday Times, the actress' January 2022 statements made on The View — where she claimed the Holocaust "wasn't originally" about race — were reiterated.
"My best friend said, 'Not for nothing is there no box on the census for the Jewish race. So that leads me to believe that we're probably not a race," Goldberg remarked in the interview.
Reporter Janice Turner then told the daytime host that Nazis "saw Jews as a race," to which the actor replied, "The oppressor is telling you what you are. Why are you believing them? They're Nazis. Why believe what they're saying?"
Goldberg added that Black people were spotted more easily by Nazis than Jews "because you could not tell a Jew on a street" by physical appearance alone.
After facing backlash, the 67-year-old has clarified that her comments were only to add clarity to her previous remarks, not to reaffirm them.

Keke Palmer Shares "Life-Changing" Sex Advice From Whoopi Goldberg
"I tried to convey to the reporter what I had said and why, and attempted to recount that time," the Sister Act star explained in a statement to the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday (Dec. 27.) "It was never my intention to appear as if I was doubling down on hurtful comments, especially after talking with and hearing people like rabbis and old and new friends weighing in."
In a statement to Rolling Stone, the acclaimed actress added "I'm still learning a lot and believe me, I heard everything everyone said to me. I believe that the Holocaust was about race, and I am still as sorry now as I was then that I upset, hurt, and angered people."
"My sincere apologies again, especially to everyone who thought this was a fresh rehash of the subject. I promise it was not. In this time of rising anti-semitism, I want to be very clear when I say that I always stood with the Jewish people and always will. My support for them has not wavered and never will."

Goldberg's original comments earned the veteran talent a suspension from her co-host slot by ABC News president Kim Godwin.
"Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments," Godwin wrote in a statement at the time. "While Whoopi has apologized, I've asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments. The entire ABC News organization stands in solidarity with our Jewish colleagues, friends, family, and communities."
"These decisions are never easy, but necessary," added Goodwin.

Texas Justices Pass On Friedman & Feiger Malpractice Row
August 14, 2015 – Media Coverage
Law360, Dallas (August 14, 2015, 7:22 PM EDT) -- The Texas Supreme Court on Friday declined to hear two former Friedman & Feiger LLP clients' bid to revive malpractice allegations that the firm caused them mental anguish in representing them in personal injury litigation against Hoffman-LaRoche Inc.
Without comment, the high court denied a petition for review filed July 6 by Karen and Rickey Holland. They had argued that the Dallas County trial judge who dismissed their claims was biased because of the law firm's campaign contributions. The Hollands have a long-running dispute with the firm, dating back to a 2005 suit against Roche and the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center that spawned three other lawsuits, including one from partner Larry Friedman claiming the Hollands were trying to extort and coerce money from him.
In the instant suit, then-Dallas County District Judge Carlos Cortez, who has since left the bench, dismissed the Hollands' case against the firm, Friedman and partner Marla Pittman, saying there was no evidence of wrongdoing. The Fifth Court of Appeals in Dallas upheld that ruling in December but said the judge had dismissed a claim against Pittman — for intentional infliction of emotional distress — for the wrong legal reason.
The intermediate appeals court said the trial judge erred in determining the emotional distress tort was "inapplicable" in light of the other claims the clients had pled. According to the opinion, although intentional infliction of emotional distress claims are unavailable where the gravamen of a complaint is another tort, the trial judge jumped the gun in concluding the Hollands had pled other theories of recovery that knocked out their mental anguish claim.
In their bid for high court review, the Hollands suggested judicial bias was a factor in the dismissal of their claims and argued the high court should clarify the standard for evaluating when a trial judge's impartiality can reasonably be questioned. They said a judge who accepts campaign funds from a party in a pending lawsuit in his court and who allows the party to host a political fundraiser on his behalf should be recused from that case.
The Hollands also sought review of whether a party is required to disclose that he is seeking mental anguish damages in the request for disclosures set out in Rule 194 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure. They argued the failure to make that disclosure should not implicate the automatic sanction that those damages are excluded.
The firm waived its right to file a response to the petition two days later.
Attorneys for the parties did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the court's decision to not hear the appeal.
The case has its roots in a 2005 suit the Hollands filed against the hospital and pharmaceutical company for injuries Rickey claimed were caused by the company's medication. The Hollands dropped their suit against the hospital because they could not file an expert report supporting their claims, and lost their case against Roche at the summary judgment stage.
The Hollands said that after consulting with an appellate attorney, they learned Friedman & Feiger had not filed a response to Roche's summary judgment motion. They subsequently sent a demand letter to the firm, prompting Friedman to file the extortion suit, which was later dismissed for want of prosecution.
The firm denied wrongdoing and accused the Hollands of "using the courthouse to vent their anger" with a "punitive lawsuit seeking extremely dubious mental-anguish damages."
The Hollands were represented by Mark A. Ticer of the Law Office of Mark A. Ticer and Matthew Kita.
The firm and lawyers were represented by Robert Gilbreath of Hawkins Parnell & Young.
The case is Holland et al. v. Friedman & Feiger LLP et al., case number 15-0439, in the Supreme Court of the State of Texas.

Tartan Trews Style Guides
Tartans in Focus
Trews History
Scottish Culture
Gunn & Grant
The Definitive History of Tartan Trews
Few things are more iconically Scottish than tartan trews. Go anywhere in Scotland or anywhere that sells Scottish clothing, souvenirs, and iconography, and you're sure to find the iconic plaid trouser patterns.
Tartan trews are as Scottish as cold rainy weather and Sir Walter Scott – both of which feature prominently in the story of their popularisation. But what are tartan trews exactly? And how have they become so interwoven with Scottish fashion and culture?
Renaissance Beginnings
We first see it in its recognisable form in the 15th and 16th Centuries. These trews were essentially breeches and stockings cut in a single piece. A 17th Century source from Skye describes these early tartan trews as being "very fine woven, like stockings of those made of cloth," with some "coloured" and others "striped."
It was quite a distinctive article of clothing, and challenging to make, one that the source declared "requires more skill to make it, than the ordinary habit." Descriptions of tartan trews being "tied round with a belt above the haunches" points to their place as a predecessor to modern trousers. Indeed, "Trousers" is an Anglicization of "Trews" and its Gaelic form, "Triubhas."
Part of what set tartan trews apart was their unique cut, which was done at a 45-degree angle. This allowed the fabric a greater degree of stretch around the leg as well as giving it its unique diamond and later plaid design.
By the 1600s, tartan trews were changing. While they were always cut to provide warmth, these later tartan trews were made with the intent of creating something that would cling closely to the body in the fashion of Renaissance "hosiery." Think of the tights that dominated the Jacobean stage, which are forerunners to modern-day tights and leggings. These tartan trews too were cut to cling closely to the body. The fabric was quite stretchy, allowing a fair amount of mobility while helping to trap heat as they clung to the wearer's legs.
National Identity and Culloden
As the Jacobean Period gave way, tartan trews changed their cut to become more like modern trousers. They no longer clung quite as closely as the hosiery-style tartan trews of the Jacobean Period and before.
Tartan trews weren't the only aspect of Scottish life that was changing during this period. The mid-1600s were among the most tumultuous times in the history of Britain, with turmoil up and down the island, from the English Civil War to the South to brewing questions over national identity in Scotland.
Since the unification of the Scottish and English Crowns in James VI/I, questions over English and Scottish union were set against nationalist tensions, which escalated after the Act of Union in 1707.
This culminated in the Jacobite Uprising led by Charles Edward Stuart, descended from the Stuart line of kings and immortalised afterwards in Scottish lore as "Bonnie Prince Charlie." The Uprising culminated at the Battle of Culloden in 1745.
Tartan trews were a symbol of Scottish nationalism and identity, so much so that they feature prominently in David Morier's painting An Incident in the Rebellion of 1745. Where the British side is made up of Redcoats, the Scottish side is identified by their kilts and tartan trews.
The battle itself was a decisive English victory, costing the Scottish their national ambitions and identity – including the tartan trews. They were inextricably linked with Scottish national identity in the aftermath of Culloden that the English Parliament passed the Dress Act of 1746, which declared that "No Man or Boy" would be allowed to wear "Plaid, Philabeg, or little Kilt, Trowse, Shoulder Belts, or any part whatsoever of what peculiarly belongs to the Highland Garb."
Sir Walter Scott, George IV, and the Tartan Revival
The Dress Act of 1756 was repealed in 1782, and tartan trews were once again allowed to be legally worn in Scotland and throughout the British Isles. However, it would take an unlikely pairing of a Romantic Scottish icon and Hanoverian English king to bring it back into prominence.
George IV had been regent for some years before his ascension to the throne in 1821. By this time, Sir Walter Scott had already emerged as one of the most famous writers in the English language as well as a Scottish literary icon.
George IV was already a national punchline and frequent target of cartoonists at this point for everything from his weight to his disastrous marriage to Caroline of Brunswick. As Lucy Worsley points out in her BBC series on the Regency, George IV liked to compensate for these factors by being a man of military importance and style.
Upon a state visit to Scotland in 1822, Sir Walter Scott arranged for the proceeding to be decked out in tartan pageantry – and, in keeping with his taste for fashion, George IV went along with it. Just decades after the English victory at Culloden and humiliation of Scottish identity with the banning of Highland clothing, the King of England was wearing tartan trews in Scotland. The political significance of George IV's fashion statement was recorded by both official portraitists and political cartoonists.
In Scotland itself, however, it marked the rebirth of Scottish identity, with tartan trews once again at the centre of it.
Military and Modern Tartan Trews
Tartans are traditionally associated with the Highland region of Scotland. In keeping with George IV's state visit and taste for military pomp, tartan trews have remained part of the military uniforms of many Highland regiments over the past two centuries.
A visit by the Prince of Wales popularised tartan trews in the United States when he wore them there in the early 1900s. Finally, Scotland's most famous game and fashion statement have long been a natural couple, as tartan trews have long been popular with golfers around the world.
From its humble beginnings to its place at the forefront of Scottish fashion and identity, tartan trews are inextricably interwoven with Scotland's proud and colourful past, informs its present, and is sure to continue far into the future.

Judge pleads guilty to stuffing ballot boxes and taking bribes for Dem candidates
ByFrank Bojazi May 21, 2020 September 12, 2020
Philadelphia, PA — A former judge has pleaded guilty and been convicted for taking bribes, casting fraudulent ballots, and also certifying false election results for three years during primary elections. This took place during 2014, 2015, and 2016 primary elections.
His name is Domenick J. Demuro, a 73-year-old, from Philadelphia. His guilty plea came during a sealed proceeding back on March 16 in front of U.S. District Judge Paul S. Diamond. This involving "conspiring to deprive persons of civil rights, and using interstate facilities in aid of bribery" according to the Department of Justice.
Demuro's guilty plea included confessions to taking bribes, that were both money or other items of value, and in exchange he would all ballots to boost the vote totals for Democrat candidates in his own jurisdiction. He would also certify the vote counts of all ballots and that included the ones he stuffed.
Further admittance show that Demuro pointed out a political consultant who would tell him what to do, then pay him in cash to add more votes to the specific candidates. These candidates included, but were not limited to, people running for a multitude of federal, local, and state office elections – many of which may have been working with the consultant directly.
This, also in admission by Demuro, would essentially dilute the votes made by real people.
Demuro's end result was stuffing ballot boxes and committing a form of voter fraud, then profiting from it with money or valuable items in exchange for his actions.
U.S. Attorney William M. McSwain weighed in on how Demuro performed his ballot stuffing, saying, "Demuro fraudulently stuffed the ballot box by literally standing in a voting booth and voting over and over, as fast as he could, while he thought the coast was clear. This is utterly reprehensible conduct. The charges announced today do not erase what he did, but they do ensure that he is held to account for those actions."
A report on Philly Voice shows the amount of money Demuro received ranged from "$300 to $5,000 per election."
It's important to state that voting machines can generate results receipts, which will show the total numbers of votes and a judge has to confirm the results for accuracy. Demuro would stuff the ballots and then certify the false votes.
He faces sentencing on June 30.

On 2 February 2016, the Dutch Senate passed the Deregulation of Assessment of Independent Contractor Status Act (Wet Deregulering Beoordeling Arbeidsrelaties). As of 1 May 2016, the Declaration of Independent Contractor Status (VAR) will be abolished.
Currently, companies who work with independent consultants (or self-employed professionals such as freelancers, entrepreneurs, etc.) require a VAR from these individuals (issued by the local tax authorities) as proof that there is no obligation on the hiring company to deduct and pay tax/social security contributions. If the tax authorities at a certain point of time find the relationship between the hiring company and independent consultant that of an employment relationship, by having the VAR in place the company can rely that the fees due will be the responsibility of the independent consultant.
It has now been confirmed that, as of 1 May 2016, the VAR will be replaced with a voluntary approval procedure in which the hiring company can submit their contract/s with independent consultants (or the templates for these types of contracts) to the tax authorities to be assessed (see previous articles here and here). Advance approval on the contract will, however, only prevent the tax authorities from imposing additional tax assessments if the way of working in practice is in line with the contract.
If you are currently working with independent consultants, from 1 May 2016, hiring employers will no longer be protected by the VAR and for each separate work relationship it will be necessary to determine whether or not an employment relationship exists.
A transitional period will be allowed until 1 May 2017 in order to adapt such contracts and working practices. During this period the tax authorities will monitor developments but will not enforce penalties, provided that parties are actively reviewing their existing work relationships.
The VAR abolishment also has the effect that remunerated supervisory board members will, at all times, become subject to wage tax withholding and therefore must be included in the company's payroll. To avoid this, the state secretary of Finance announced that the deemed employment relationship of supervisory board members for wage tax purposes will be abolished in the near future. We will keep you updated with any further developments.
If you have any questions on how this will impact your business or for assistance in reviewing / redrafting contracts, please contact Wies Verstraaten on +31 10 224 6632, Loyens & Loeff.

This research seeks to reflect the managerial, academic and professional experience of the authors in the design and implementation process of urban design projects, aiming to use the application of the "design governance" model, in order to describe the documents and activities of the Department of Urban Planning and Architecture of Tehran Municipality in the last decade. This paper consists of three main parts. The first part introduces the model of design governance and identifies its formal and informal tools. The second part introduces design governance tools based on the experience of Tehran. The third part deals with the comparison of the tools used in Tehran municipality with the design governance model. The research method is qualitative and descriptive-analytic. The data required for research is collected from library and documents available in the Department of Urban Planning and Architecture of Tehran Municipality. Data analysis has been conducted by two methods consisting of 1- qualitative content analysis, to analyze the afore-mentioned documents, and 2- reflective practice method to reveal the empirical knowledge of the authors. Research findings indicate that prescriptive tools have had a high effect on the decision-making process. However, the activities carried out over the last 10 years to improve the quality of urban environments in Tehran indicate a tendency to use informal tools of governance, although certain legal gaps have prevented this tendency from continuing. This requires more attention from legislatures in terms of qualitative issues. Ultimately, the following conclusion is drawn: The design governance will be able to support the qualities of the urban environment if it has legislative status, while it is guided by urban management extended to other stakeholders.

From tomatoes to cucumbers, how a border shutdown could affect produce prices in Philly region
Ximena Conde
In the event of a Southern border shutdown, produce customers in the region could find themselves paying more or unable to buy the fruits and vegetables they need. (Kimberly Paynter/WHYY)
Shoppers in the Philadelphia region could find themselves paying more for fruits and vegetables — or toting lighter grocery baskets — if President Donald Trump follows through on threats to close the United States' southern border with Mexico.
Trump argues that Mexico has done little to control the flow of Central American migrants into this country, and last week he raised the idea of closing the border as soon as this week. On Tuesday, Trump said he would take a "wait-and-see" approach.
Though the likelihood of a total border closure remains unclear, Neil Bradley, executive vice president and chief policy officer at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, released a statement Monday opposing such a move.
"Closing the U.S.-Mexico border would inflict severe economic harm on American families, workers, farmers, and manufacturers across the United States," Bradley said, adding that trade with Mexico exceeds $1.7 billion daily.
Todd Penza, a manager at Pinto Bros. Inc. produce wholesaler in Philadelphia, agreed.

"If there was complete shutdown of the border with Mexico, yeah, it would be disastrous," said Penza, who, like other wholesalers in the region, relies on truck deliveries from Mexico for fresh produce. They worry about what a closure would do to their supply chain.
"If I can't load cucumbers on Friday for Monday's business because the border has shut down, then I have to go elsewhere," Penza said, giving an example of just how quickly a supply chain could be disturbed. "I have to go to Florida — it's the only other growing area for cucumbers — and if they only have X amount of cases, and I'm the last one to call them and they run out, then I won't have cucumbers on Monday to sell my customers."
Pinto Brothers, a small produce wholesaler in Philadelphia, says that about half of what's on their shelves right now was grown in Mexico. (Kimberly Paynter/WHYY)
Penza estimated Tuesday that about half of what he's carrying at the moment is from Mexico.
The list includes tomatoes, cucumbers, red and green bell pepper, eggplants, zucchini, hard squashes, broccoli crowns, and artichokes. He'd begin to run out of product after four days.
"My supply, it's constantly flowing, that's how we keep produce fresh, it's how our customers keep produce fresh," Penza said. "You can't speculate on cucumbers and hold it for five or six days."
The political uncertainty comes at a time when Pinto Bros. and other businesses begin to switch from Mexican supply to local sources — though the transition to East Coast produce is supposed to be a gradual six- to eight-week process.
Wholesalers could try to change suppliers at the drop of a hat, but it would be difficult.
Farmers grow based on expected demand. They typically don't keep extra crates of mangoes on the off-chance a buyer will come looking for additional produce. If farmers do find themselves with extra crates of produce, prices will be exorbitantly high.
"It would be a huge impact to the consumer," said Kenneth Cuttler, owner of Cuttler Produce in central New Jersey. "Probably doubling or tripling the price."
He estimated that only about 20 percent of his products come from Mexico.
Delis and restaurants across New Jersey, Manhattan and Philadelphia depend on the prices offered by his larger business, which operates 30 trucks, Cuttler said.
For his part, Filindo Colace, vice president of wholesaler Ryeco, said he isn't too worried. Neither are other wholesalers he said he's talked to.
All they've heard so far is speculation, Colace said.
"I don't think that the government is not going to figure out a way to allow the goods to continue to move," he said.
Colace estimated that up to 15 percent of what he carries is from Mexico.
Still, were trucks to be cut off at the border, the Port of Philadelphia could serve as a backup.
Sean Mahoney, director of marketing at PhilaPort, said officials there are keeping a close eye on the developing story.
"One of the strengths that we're known for is refrigerated cargos, your perishables, your fruit and produce, and service from Mexico directly to Philadelphia would fit very comfortably in our warehouse," Mahoney said. "We're prepared. We have the cold storage, we have the know-how."

__KEIN_INHALTSVERZEICHNIS__

Die Synagoge mit der Adresse Wuliza Tschanharskaja (, unterschiedl. Angaben zur Hausnummer 31, 26 oder 10) in Babrujsk, einer belarussischen Stadt in der Mahiljouskaja Woblasz, wurde Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts erbaut. Der ursprüngliche Name ist nicht bekannt.

Geschichte
Das Gebäude wurde zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts gebaut (an anderer Stelle ist vom Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts die Rede) und wurde bis 1932 als Synagoge genutzt. Die sowjetischen Behörden schlossen die Synagoge danach und das Gebäude hatte vielfältige andere Verwendung (Mühle, Warenlager, Radsportzentrum). Nach einem Feuer 1969 wurde es aufgegeben und verfiel.

Architektur
Die Synagoge ist aus roten Backsteinen gemauert. Nur noch wenige Wände stehen, Einige der Kielbogenfenster sind noch erhalten, aber teilweise zugemauert. Die Haupthalle hatte hohe Fenster; die Vorhalle mit darüberliegender Empore jeweils niedrigere.

Heutige Verwendung
Mitte der 2010er Jahre wurde damit begonnen, den Platz und die Gebäudereste in ein Freilichtmuseum über das jüdische Leben in Babrujsk umzugestalten. Dies wurde 2019 abgeschlossen.

The Tekonsha 2030 Mark 12 is an electronic brake controller for two- and four-wheel trailer brake applications. It provides proportional trailer braking, which means that the more braking pressure you apply in the towing vehicle, the more trailer braking will occur. This gives smoother braking performance. The 2030 Mark 12 is an older Tekonsha model; mounting and wiring the unit is a task that many users can do themselves.
Select a location for the brake controller under the dashboard in a central location where the driver's knee will not strike it. The unit does not need to be level -- it can be mounted anywhere between plus or minus 90 degrees from level. Use a drill and screwdriver to attach the mounting bracket to your chosen location. Attach the controller to the mounting bracket with the screws provided, and the rear of the controller toward the front of the tow vehicle.
Run the wiring from inside the vehicle through the firewall to the engine compartment of the towing vehicle. Connect the white wire to the negative terminal of the battery. Install a 20-amp circuit breaker in line with the black wire then connect it to the positive battery terminal. Connect the red wire to the circuit, which is the cold side of the stoplight switch. Splice down the line from the switch and do not disturb the position. Run the blue wire to the trailer connector for the trailer brakes -- this wire has electronic short-circuit protection.
Adjust the brake sensor after you have installed the brake controller unit by parking the towing vehicle somewhere level and with the engine running. The trailer does not have to be hooked up to do this. Set the gain controller on the left part of the front of the unit to minimum, depress the brake pedal and keep it down. Rotate the sensor adjustment wheel on the bottom of the unit counterclockwise as far as it will go. The indicator light should now be flickering. Rotate the wheel in the other direction until the indicator glows steadily. Again turn it counterclockwise to the point where the light just begins to flicker, then release the brake pedal. The brake sensor is now adjusted.
Connect the trailer to the tow vehicle to set the gain control. Check that the gain control is set to the minimum. Tow the trailer at low speed on a level, dry, traffic-free, paved surface. Slowly move the manual lever on the front of the brake controller all the way to the left. If the trailer brakes do not lock up, move the gain control back and repeat until you have determined the maximum gain control setting where the trailer brakes do not lock up and leave the gain control setting there. Again drive at low speed to check the automatic operation -- the towing vehicle and trailer should make a smooth, straight stop.
Gain control setting should be varied to compensate for changes in trailer weight and road conditions, to ensure maximum braking efficiency.
You can request a pdf copy of the 2030 Mark 12 owner's manual via email on the Tekonsha website (www.tekonsha.com). It provides wiring instructions for different models of older towing vehicles.


Super Rugby's administrators Sanzaar have confirmed a small change to the qualification process for the 2017 Super Rugby semi-finals.
In a change from 2016 the semi-final draw will be pre-determined (see below). The semi-final host teams will be the highest ranked winners from the respective quarter-finals.
As in 2016 the teams winning places in the quarter-finals will be: the four Conference winners – who will host quarter-final matches; and four wild card teams – determined by the tournament rules and final conference positions.
The teams will be ranked 1-8 based on the final number of competition points attained and the following order.
Quarter-final 4: 4 v 5.
The tournament kicks-off on Thursday 23 February with the Rebels hosting the Blues at AAMI Park in Melbourne. The fixture list will see two matches played in the Pacific Islands: Round 13 – Chiefs versus Crusaders in Suva, Fiji on Friday 19 May; and Round 15 – Blues versus Reds in Apia, Samoa on Friday 2 June.

Intravenous Fat-Tolerance Test in Ischaemic Heart Disease and Peripheral Vascular Disease
B. Lewis, A. C. Onitiri, I. D. P. Wootton, A. Chait, G. Sigurdsson, C. M. Oakley
1. The intravenous fat-tolerance test and serum lipid and lipoprotein measurements were carried out in ninety-three normal subjects, fifty-one patients with ischaemic heart disease and thirty patients with peripheral vascular disease. 2. The fractional turnover rate of exogenous triglyceride was significantly slower in patients with ischaemic heart disease and in patients with peripheral vascular disease than in normal men. The rate was also slower in normal men than normal women. 3. Serum triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations were higher in both vascular disease groups than in control subjects. 4. The proportion of both groups of patients who had a subnormal fractional turnover rate of exogenous triglyceride was 35%, and 32% of patients had hypertriglyceridaemia in the fasting state; 27% of patients were hypercholesterolaemic. 5. Although the intravenous fat-tolerance test did not provide significantly better discrimination between cardiovascular patients and control subjects than did measurement of serum triglyceride, the results suggest that hypertriglyceridaemia in such patients may be separable into a group in which impaired triglyceride clearance may be partly responsible, and a group in which overproduction of serum triglyceride may be the major mechanism of the hyperlipidaemia.
The Relationship between Dietary Fat Composition and Plasma Cholesterol Esterification in Man
J. P. Miller, A. Chait, B. Lewis
1. Cholesterol esterification has been studied in the plasma of subjects on diets rich in saturated or polyunsaturated fat. 2. The diet rich in polyunsaturated fat was associated with lower rates of plasma cholesterol esterification in vitro. The data suggest that there was a reduction of plasma lecithin—cholesterol acyltransferase activity as well as decreased ability of the lipoprotein substrates of the enzyme to support esterification. 3. On this diet, there was no change in the proportion of the plasma cholesterol esterified but the plasma cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations were reduced.

The Mystery of Blackwood Lodge
 Diretto da: Amanda Row
 Scritto da: Alex Taub e Andrea Thornton Bolden

Trama
Un disperato Ryan va da Nancy per aiuto. In cambio per aver accettato di rubare una collezione di monete romane inestimabili per Ryan da un'asta al club "Velvet Masque", Nancy costringe Ryan a scortarla all'interno del club, normalmente off-limits per i paesani. Bess e Lisbeth hanno il loro primo appuntamento, ma quando Lisbeth se ne va via prima, Bess è devastata. Per tirarla su, George la porta in missione con Nick per infiltrarsi nel club; i due avevano dedotto in precedenza che le monete erano collegate all'affondamento di una nave cargo che ha ucciso lo zio di Owen e adesso i due progettano di rubarle per smascherare gli Hudson per il loro presunto coinvolgimento. Nancy scopre che i genitori di Ryan avevano ingaggiato Carson, nel 1999, per sbarazzarsi di Lucy, per tenerla lontano dal figlio e per coprire la sua scoperta della relazione tra lo zio di Owen e la madre di Ryan, Celia Hudson. Lisbeth successivamente rifà il suo appuntamento con Bess e le due finiscono per baciarsi, mentre Nancy riesce a rubare le monete romane.

The Tale of the Fallen Sea Queen
 Diretto da: Rebecca Rodriguez
 Scritto da: Erika Harrison e Katie Schwartz

Trama
Victoria avverte il gruppo di sbarazzarsi delle monete, dal momento che esse attirano spiriti maligni. Invece, Nancy decide di usarle in una seduta spiritica per contattare lo spirito di Lucy in modo da poter finalmente ricevere delle risposte alle sue tante domande. Nel frattempo, Laura accusa apertamente McGinnis di aver insabbiato la morte di Tiffany. Ace comincia a sospettare che Laura possa essere l'assassina di Tiffany dopo aver appreso che lei avrebbe ereditato i soldi di sua sorella, ma Nancy scopre l'accordo segreto di Ace con McGinnis, frantumando così la loro fiducia. Il contatto di Nancy la informa che le prove che gli ha mandato per le analisi sono scomparse, così lei rintraccia il fratellastro di Lucy per ottenere l'unico altro oggetto che può essere usato per evocarla, un braccialetto che indossava prima della sua morte. Victoria è troppo ubriaca per aiutare, così il gruppo fa la seduta spiritica senza di lei. Tuttavia, durante il rituale, le monete vengono distrutte. Nick rompe con Nancy, dato che lei continua ad allontanarlo. Uno spirito sconosciuto, intanto, comunica con Ted, la sorella minore di George. Ace e Laura fanno un grave incidente d'auto, mentre Nancy si occupa della sua crescente paura che suo padre abbia ucciso Lucy.

The Path of Shadow
 Diretto da: Alexis Ostrander
 Scritto da: Jesse Stern

Trama
Ace viene portato in ospedale e cade in un coma. Nancy parla con lo sceriffo McGinnis, e dopo aver rivelato tutte le interazioni tra lei e i suoi amici con il mondo degli spiriti, scopre che lo spirito di Ace si è separato dal suo corpo a causa del trauma dell'incidente. McGinnis riunisce Nancy, George e Carson per formare un cerchio spirituale e mandare George nel mondo degli spiriti. Sulla base della deduzione di Nancy che qualcuno abbia intenzionalmente manomesso l'auto di Laura per innescare l'incidente, Nick e Bess si confrontano con Lisbeth, che pensano possa essere responsabile. Lisbeth dice quindi la verità: in realtà è una poliziotta sotto copertura che indaga sugli Hudson. George non riesce a rintracciare lo spirito di Ace a causa dell'energia negativa tra Nancy e Carson, così Nancy gli fa promettere di rivelare tutto quello che sa una volta terminata la cerimonia. George riesce allora a trovare lo spirito di Ace, sotto forma di ragazzino, ma rimane comunque in coma. Nancy usa un indizio trovato da George per smascherare l'agente Rawley, il poliziotto corrotto responsabile dell'incidente. Nancy e Lisbeth inscenano un confronto in modo che Lisbeth possa mantenere la sua copertura. Quando George va a prendere sua sorella Ted alla tavola calda, non la trova più.

The Hidden Staircase
 Diretto da: Shannon Kohli
 Scritto da: Melinda Hsu Taylor

Trama
La scomparsa di Ted rivela somiglianze tra il suo rapimento e quello di Rose Turnbull, una bambina salvata da Nancy nel suo primo caso da detective. Basandosi su questo, Nancy sospetta che chiunque abbia rapito Ted sia legato a Nathan Gomber, l'uomo che aveva rapito Rose. Nancy e Carson, dunque, visitano il vecchio magazzino di Nathan. Nel frattempo, George e Nick cercano di decifrare un biglietto passato da Gomber al suo unico visitatore, Moira Baker. La visita di Nancy nel magazzino le fa capire che ci sono lacune nella sua memoria dalla notte in cui ha trovato Rose. Inizia a credere, dunque, che un'entità chiamata Simon che prima manipolava Nathan, vuole l'anima di Ted. George trova il negozio di antiquariato di Moira e irrompe dentro con Nick. Allo stesso tempo, Nancy trova il santuario che Nathan ha costruito per Simon e lo brucia; Moira viene catturata e Nick ritrova Ted. Quando Nancy va a trovare Nathan per l'ultima volta, lui dice che i suoi affari con Simon non sono ancora finiti. Bess rivela il suo segreto ad Owen e gli chiede di confrontare il DNA per scoprire se è davvero una Marvin. Nel frattempo, Karen trova il diario di Nancy e informa lo sceriffo McGinnis, che fa analizzare il coltello dalla morte di Lucy. Le impronte digitali corrispondono a quelle di Carson, quindi lui viene arrestato e accusato di aver ucciso Lucy.

The Mark of the Poisoner's Pearl
 Diretto da: Sydney Freeland
 Scritto da: Katherine DiSavino e Lisa Bao

Trama
Nancy viene informata da un contatto che Tiffany è stata uccisa con un raro tipo di veleno. Owen incontra Bess e le conferma che sono cugini di primo grado, rendendola quindi una Marvin. Poi le chiede le monete romane, parte di un piano per smascherare Everett Hudson per aver ucciso il loro zio, ma quando Nick spiega che le monete sono state distrutte, Bess inventa un piano per usare Ryan come mezzo per trovare altre potenziali prove. L'indagine di Nancy la porta ad un vecchio caso che coinvolge un avvelenatore seriale di quasi diciassette anni prima. Ace la porta da suo padre, che aveva precedentemente lavorato al caso, e dà a Nancy indizi che indicano che l'assassino si trova ancora a Horseshoe Bay. Nancy registra un video per attirare l'attenzione dell'assassino; l'assassino poi l'attira in una trappola e viene salvata solo pochi secondi prima di morire da George e Nick.

The Phantom of Bonny Scot
 Diretto da: Ramsey Nickell
 Scritto da: Andrea Thornton Bolden e Katie Schwartz

Trama
Nancy ed Everett fanno un accordo: se lei sabota gli sforzi di Owen per smascherare la sua famiglia, lui la aiuterà a far rilasciare suo padre dalla prigione. L'amica di George, Dawn, la informa che il Bayside Claw verrà messo al mercato, il che significa che George perderà l'unico posto che considera veramente casa a meno che non riesca a trovare velocemente dei soldi. Bess, intanto, decide di abbracciare la sua eredità britannica per il suo primo pranzo con Diana Marvin; impressionata, Diana le chiede di unirsi all'impero aziendale dei Marvin cenando con una potenziale nuova partner, Amaya Alston. Nel frattempo, Owen presenta Nancy a Bashiir, l'unico sopravvissuto della Bonny Scot. Bashiir rivela di essere perseguitato da un grande senso di colpa, ma che non vuole farsi avanti per paura della deportazione. Con l'aiuto di Owen, Nancy riesce ad incastrare Everett, che viene mandato in custodia. Inoltre, trova dei documenti nella villa della famiglia Hudson che suggeriscono che la madre di Lucy abbia qualcosa a che fare con la sua morte. Nick, nel frattempo, dice a George che userà alcuni dei suoi titoli per comprare il Claw. Intanto, Celia Hudson contatta qualcuno alla prigione, ordinandogli di uccidere Carson.

 Guest star: Martin Donovan (Everett Hudson), Katie Findlay (Lisbeth), Miles Gaston Villanueva (Owen), Isaiah Johnson (Bashiir), Teryl Rothery (Celia Hudson).

The Lady of Larkspur Lane
 Diretto da: Greg Beeman
 Scritto da: Erika Harrison

Trama
Nancy, George e Nick vanno a Larkspur Lane, il manicomio locale in cui la madre di Lucy, Patricia, ha vissuto dalla sua morte. Li, scoprono una strana infestazione di muffa, sciami di insetti, e un uomo di nome Sal che sostiene che l'edificio è infestato dagli spiriti della famiglia che morì lì nel 1870. Nel frattempo, Carson viene quasi pugnalato in prigione prima che Ace riesca a falsificare una richiesta di trasferimento; il ragazzo porta Carson a casa sua e contatta Karen per chiedere aiuto quando arriva la polizia. Bess impressiona Amaya con le sue osservazioni intelligenti e il suo spirito. Senza prove che dimostrino che la vita di Carson è in pericolo, Bess fa un accordo con Ryan, offrendogli in cambio un favore dalla famiglia Marvin. Le prove di Ryan, insieme ad una chiamata di Amaya, sono sufficienti per far uscire Carson di prigione. Nancy trova Patricia, che mostra segni di demenza, e le dice di trovare il "libro dell'uomo magro". Sal la dirige alla Scatola dei Sussurri, dove sono costuditi i beni della famiglia, ma poi aziona l'allarme antincendio. Nancy rimane intrappolata nella Scatola dei Sussurri e cade in un sonno profondo, risvegliandosi in un modo di fantasia dove sua madre è viva.

Nancy, intanto, va avanti con il suo piano per scoprire chi ha ucciso davvero Lucy facendo hackerare ad Ace il suo vecchio account email e si scoprono dei messaggi tra lei e Ryan che rivelano che avrebbero dovuto incontrarsi il giorno in cui Lucy morì. Bess si preoccupa che Amaya possa avere un interesse romantico per lei. Nancy porta il gruppo, Laura, Karen e Ryan al Bayside Claw, e fa ricreare gli eventi che hanno portato all'omicidio di Tiffany. La ricostruzione porta ad una svolta decisiva: un'insalata avvelenata che era stata preparata per Ryan, è stata invece servita a Tiffany. Nancy prende questo come prova che l'omicidio era per vendicarsi di Ryan che aveva precedentemente ucciso Lucy; dopo aver visto il fantasma di Lucy, Ryan fugge. Ace, nel frattempo, decide di rompere con Laura. Nancy va a visitare Joshua per controllare il vecchio computer di Lucy, ma capisce velocemente che è stato lui ad avvelenare l'insalata.

The Terror of Horseshoe Bay
 Diretto da: Katie Eastridge
 Scritto da: Jen Vestuto e Melissa Marlette

Trama
Mentre la polizia si attrezza per trovare Joshua, Nancy scopre che ha un solo giorno rimanente prima dell'udienza preliminare di suo padre. Lei ed Owen parlano con il vecchio compagno di stanza di Ryan per delle informazioni su di lui e Lucy. Nick e Ace, nel frattempo, visitano il padre di Ace, che è tornato in attività per tornare in servizio, e scoprono che il veleno usato per uccidere Tiffany era stato rubato dalle prove della polizia. Nancy deduce correttamente che Joshua aveva un complice: Karen. Nonostante il suo arresto, Carson informa Nancy che ha bisogno di prove fisiche per ripulire il suo nome. Owen, George e Bess vanno alla Società Storica e conducono delle ricerche su Agleaca, uno spirito che apparentemente esaudisce il desiderio della persona di chi lo invoca, ma per un prezzo. Il gruppo esegue il rituale di evocazione e l'Agleaca esaudisce il desiderio di Nancy dandole le ossa di Lucy. In cambio, prova ad uccidere Owen, forzando George a rompere la ghirlanda dell'evocazione. Ace nasconde le ossa, Nick accetta l'offerta di George di passare la notte a casa sua ed Owen e Nancy vanno a letto insieme. Il giorno seguente, Nancy tossisce la ghirlanda dell'evocazione. Questo indica che l'Agleaca è scontento per il suo rifiuto di onorare l'accordo.

 Guest star: Kenneth Mitchell (Joshua Dodd), Miles Gaston Villanueva (Owen Marvin), Anthony Natale (il padre di Ace), David Paetkau (il vecchio compagno di stanza di Ryan).

The Haunting of Nancy Drew
 Diretto da: Ruben Garcia
 Scritto da: Noga Landau e Katie Schwartz

Trama
Nancy porta al Bayside Claw il suo amico scienziato forense per analizzare le ossa di Lucy, mentre lei continua la sua ricerca alle prove per ripulire il nome di Carson. Durante le prove, il detective Abe Tamura, il sostituto di Karen per la polizia, arriva con un mandato per indagare nel Bayside Claw. Nick e George riescono a nascondere le ossa in tempo. Nancy, intanto, decide di portare Ryan con sé per le sue ricerche e i due interrogano diversi testimoni, inclusi Everett e Karen, per provare a rimettere insieme le ore finali di Lucy. Dopodiché, visitano la sua casa d'infanzia e trovano il suo diario nascosto nelle mura. Quando Nancy deve testimoniare al processo di suo padre, rivela la verità: Lucy ha commesso suicidio, portata dalla disperazione, quando Everett l'aveva forzata a chiudere la sua relazione con Ryan. Carson viene scagionato da tutte le accuse. Mentre puliscono il locale, George e Nick finiscono per baciarsi. Bess, intanto, scopre che un osso è sparito, ignara che l'ha trovato il detective Tamura. Lo scienziato dà a Nancy una rivelazione che conferma poco dopo con suo padre: Lucy si era uccisa solo dopo aver dato a lui e a sua moglie il bambino che ha avuto con Ryan per crescerlo come il loro; Nancy è, dunque, la figlia biologica di Lucy e Ryan.

L'unico problema è che per far sì che il rituale funzioni, Nancy deve offrire il suo sangue e quello di un familiare. Prova quindi ad ottenere l'aiuto di Ryan assistendolo nello sforzo di scoprire del suo bambino scomparso. Tuttavia, quando Ryan ammette di non voler aiutare Owen, Nancy lo riempie di insulti e lui se ne va senza di lei. Alla festa di compleanno di Diana Marvin, a Bess viene detto che dovrà estorcere informazioni da Lisbeth rigyardo il lavoro della polizia in cambio dell'approvazione della sua famiglia della loro relazione. Ryan intanto deduce la verità e si confronta con Nancy; lei confessa che non vuole che lui sia suo padre. Ryan tuttavia rispetta la sua parte dell'accordo e prende parte nel rituale. Sfortunatamente, le visioni peggiorano. Nancy suggerisce, con la conferma di Victoria, che l'Agleaca una volta era un umano che è stato ingiustamente ucciso, e adesso è arrabbiato e desidera sangue.

 Diretto da: Ramsey Nickell
 Scritto da: Erika Harrison e Jessie Stern

Trama
Nancy e la Drew Crew si lanciano nel risolvere l'omicidio di Owen, credendo che l'Agleaca presto verrà per loro. Quando una seduta spiritica destinata a chiamare lo spirito di Owen fallisce, Nancy e Ace visitano la Società Storica e scoprono che l'Agleaca attacca le sue vittime solo in gruppi, il che significa che Owen è stato ucciso da un essere umano vivente. Bess continua a lottare con il suo amore per Lisbeth e il suo desiderio di compiacere la sua famiglia spiando la sua ragazza. George scopre che non può essere in intimità con Nick e affronta Ryan, rendendo chiaro che lei lo incolpa per essersi approfittata di lei e aver distorto la sua idea di cosa sia l'amore. Lisbeth condivide con Nancy alcune prove che le permettono di dedurre che Joshua, suo zio biologico, è l'assassino di Owen. Visita sua nonna e scopre che Joshua si è nascosto nella casa di cura; prima che lui possa ucciderla, si rivela come sua nipote, facendolo scivolare e quasi cadere verso la morte prima che Ace lo tiri su. George finalmente decide che può permettersi di essere di nuovo intima. L'Agleaca invia a ciascuno del gruppo una visione di come moriranno: George e Nick annegano, Ace viene impalato su un gancio di carne, Bess brucia a morte, e Nancy muore nello stesso modo in cui sua madre è caduta dalla scogliera dove si è tolta la vita.

Attendance at Advanced Engineering Increases by 15% With Exhibitor Bookings Up a Third
Submitted on Wed 15 Nov 2017
Representatives spanning a huge breadth of engineering & manufacturing applications came together on 1&2 November for the Advanced Engineering Show, not only to create a record two-day attendance for the event, but also sparking off an exhibitor booking frenzy for its 2018 edition, 35% higher than that the previous year.
The UK's largest meeting place for advanced engineers attracted some of the industry's biggest names including Airbus; Boeing; Jaguar Land Rover; Hexcel; and Dassault Systèmes, who met and did business across the supply chain, with visitors from a range of engineering specialisms including: automation, design & test engineering, process control, machining and many more.
The two-day open conference, which was newly 'Continuing Professional Development (CPD)' - accredited for this year, by the CPD Certification Service, had a raft of speakers and topics, including talks from the Department of International Trade, Composites UK, GKN, Siemens, Nissan and more.
Visitors saw a variety of cutting edge technology and materials from exhibitors as well as show floor features. It was the only place in the world where you could find, in the one place, a hydrogen powered car, the latest in aircraft landing gear, a battery made 100% from recycled materials, a ground based test rig for electric contra rotating propulsion, and a Libralato hybrid engine to name but a few.
In addition the Enabling Innovation showcase, sponsored by Magna and supported by Innovate UK, significantly expanded and provided a unique opportunity for 50 start-ups & researchers to showcase the next generation of exciting new technologies.
Alison Willis, industrial divisional director at Easyfairs, organisers of the show, said: "This year, the Composites Engineering zone was outstanding. The visitors, the conference speakers, the companies who supplied the show floor features and the exhibitors have all contributed to making Advanced Engineering 2017 a success.
"Our new zone, Connected Manufacturing, was hugely popular, with a particularly well-attended open forum, demonstrating the importance of Industry 4.0 to companies of all sizes. Watch this space for an expanded Connected Manufacturing in 2018.
"And now, we are looking to even more areas of expansion for Advanced Engineering, with the addition of our new Nuclear Engineering zone, addressing nuclear energy build, operation and supply chain. We will be in touch with all exhibitors and visitors in the next few months. We'll be pulling the stops out even further next year as 2018 is the Show's 10th birthday, and it's set to be bigger and better than ever!"
Mark Crouchen, Managing Director of exhibitor Rockwood Composites who exhibited at the event, said: "What we're doing is removing the constraints of design in composites. And that's exactly what the Composites Engineering Show does for our business development – it gives it a huge boost. This has been the best year in terms of quality of enquiries. We have been able to demonstrate our capability to a large number of people. It's been great for the business."
John Darlington, exhibitor TenCate's Global Director Product and Market Strategy, added: "The Advanced Engineering show is a fantastic opportunity to support our industry partners in meeting new clients. This year was no exception, and indeed has been the most successful ever, delivering more leads, more contact with suppliers and, as importantly, the ability to meet TenCate's existing customers and partners."
The show consisted of four other co-locating zones which were: Aero Engineering; Automotive Engineering; Performance Metals Engineering; and Connected Manufacturing – which was new for 2017. Next year's show will see the addition to these co locating zones of Nuclear Engineering.
Next year's show takes place on 31st Oct - 1st November again at Birmingham NEC.

Is Your Process Safety a 'Paper Tiger'?
Make sure your company's process safety management program is not just on paper, but is being used, OSHA official tells NSC Congress attendees.
When the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) came out with its process safety management (PSM) standard in 1992, the agency basically told companies to "tell us what you're going to do, and OSHA will hold you to it."
The PSM standard (29 CFR 1910.119) is a performance-based, comprehensive management rule that varies from specification standards, which tell employers exactly what to do, George Yokas, area director of the Milwaukee OSHA office, said Oct. 20 at the 87th annual National Safety Council Congress & Expo in New Orleans. Yokas is process safety management coordinator for OSHA Region 5.
With this standard, OSHA told employers to "be safe, don't blow up your plant, and don't have a toxic release or a chemical reaction," he said. "But don't promise me a Cadillac (program) if you're going to deliver a subcompact car."
Because employers better do what they say they are going to do in their process safety management plan, Yokas said, they need to make sure a good program is not poorly implemented. "If you're not going to use it, it's not worth the paper it's written on," he said.
The purpose of 29 CFR 1910.119 is to prevent or minimize consequences of catastrophic releases of toxic or explosive chemicals. The standard not only applies to the chemical industry, but other industries that handle chemicals covered in the regulation.
From the standard's inception, in May 1992, through September 1999, OSHA has had 1,247 inspections, 6,637 proposed citations and $20 million in proposed penalties. The most violations (1,186) involved operating procedures.
Part 119(f) of the standard, which deals with operating procedures, requires that these procedures must be developed and implemented, with clear instructions at the task level. Otherwise, Yokas said, it's on paper, but has not been put into practice. Operating phases covered by the standard include initial startup; normal, temporary and emergency operations; emergency shutdowns; and startups and shutdowns.
Another factor to keep in mind when implementing process safety management is the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) risk management plan (RMP), which became effective in June 1999. "They look an awful lot alike," Yokas said of PSM and RMP. "Unfortunately, there are covered chemicals that don't match each list" when comparing the two rules.
OSHA is working with EPA on making the lists more comparable, Yokas said.


A report on work being done jointly with Deirdre Mulligan. Technical systems employing algorithms are shaping and displacing human decision making in a variety of fields. As technology reconfigures work practices, researchers have documented potential loss of human agency and skill, confusion about responsibility, diminished accountability, and both over- and under-reliance on decision-support systems. The introduction of predictive algorithm systems into professional decision making compounds both general concerns with bureaucratic inscrutability and opaque technical systems as well as specific concerns about encroachments on expert knowledge and (mis-)alignment with professional liability frameworks and ethics. To date, however, we have little empirical data regarding how automated decision-support tools are being debated, deployed, used, and governed in professional practice.
The objective of our ongoing empirical study is to analyze the organizational structures, professional rules and norms, and technical system properties that shape professionals' understanding and engagement with such systems in practice. As a case study, we examine decision-support systems marketed to legal professionals, focusing primarily on technologies marketed for "e-discovery" purposes. Commonly referred to as "technology-assisted review" (TAR) or "predictive coding," these systems increasingly rely on machine-learning techniques to classify and predict which of the voluminous electronic documents subject to litigation should be withheld or produced to the opposing side. We are accomplishing our objective through in-depth, semi-structured interviews of experts in this space: the technology company representatives who develop and sell such systems to law firms and the legal professionals who decide whether and how to use them in practice. We argue that governance approaches should be seeking to put lawyers and decision-support systems in deeper conversation, not position them as relatively passive recipients of system wisdom who must rely on out-of-system legal mechanisms to understand or challenge them. This requires attention to both the information demands of legal professionals and the processes of interaction that elicit human expertise and allow humans to obtain information about machine decision making.
Daniel N. Kluttz is a postdoctoral scholar at UC Berkeley's School of Information. There he helps organize and lead the Algorithmic Fairness and Opacity Working Group (AFOG), an interdisciplinary group that brings together UC Berkeley faculty, postdocs, and Bay Area technology professionals to develop research and policy recommendations regarding fairness and transparency, governance, professional ethics, and social impacts of emerging technologies and practices, particularly as applied to artificial-intelligence-based systems, algorithmic decision making, and data science.
Drawing from intellectual traditions in organizational theory, law and society, economic sociology, social psychology, and technology studies, Kluttz's research is oriented around two broad lines of inquiry: 1) the formal and informal governance of economic and technological innovations, and 2) the organizational and legal environments surrounding such innovations. His current projects include studies of the psychological, organizational, and cultural underpinnings of personal data exchange in the digital economy, the effects of automated decision-support technologies on professional work practices and the construction and implementation of data science ethics in the tech industry and higher education. He has employed both qualitative and quantitative methods in his work, including in-depth interviews, longitudinal and multi-level modeling techniques, surveys, geospatial analyses, and historical/archival methods.
Kluttz's research has appeared in a variety of peer-reviewed publications, including the Law & Society Review, Socio-Economic Review, and Handbook of Contemporary Sociological Theory. He holds a Ph.D. in sociology from UC Berkeley, a JD from the UNC-Chapel Hill School of Law, and dual bachelor's degrees in sociology and psychology from UNC-Chapel Hill. Prior to pursuing his Ph.D., he practiced law in Raleigh, NC.
