A letter to the editor in yesterday’s <i>Post-Gazette</i> suggests that the scandal is all about money, but it seems fairly obvious insofar as we understand what’s happened that money was no more than a tangential issue, if it was an issue at all. More to the point, it will be interesting to see if the power struggle between Paterno and Spanier, which played out over many years, was a significant factor. It is, after all, easy to imagine that people loyal to Paterno might have dismissed the allegations against Sandusky not because they believed in Sandusky’s innocence, but because they believed that revealing the allegations against him would lead more or less directly to Paterno’s unseating as the head football coach.</div><div class="zemanta-related"><h6 class="zemanta-related-title" style="font-size: 1em; margin: 1em 0 0 0;">Related articles</h6><ul class="zemanta-article-ul"><li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"><a href="http://www.philly.com/r?19=961&43=165761&44=134297643&32=3796&7=195202&40=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.philly.com%2Fphilly%2Fnews%2F20111122_Penn_State_names_Freeh_to_lead_Sandusky_probe.html">Penn State names Freeh to lead Sandusky probe</a> (philly.com)</li><li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"><a href="http://news.blogs.cnn.com/2011/11/21/former-fbi-director-to-lead-penn-state-investigation/">Former FBI director to lead Penn State investigation</a> (news.blogs.cnn.com)</li><li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"><a href="http://www.philly.com/r?19=961&43=165761&44=134304218&32=3796&7=195202&40=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.philly.com%2Fphilly%2Fnews%2F20111122_Penn_State_faces_grilling_by_former_FBI_director.html">Penn State faces grilling by former FBI director</a> (philly.com)</li><li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"><a href="http://www.inquisitr.com/161667/former-fbi-director-louis-freeh-begins-conducting-independent-penn-state-probe/">Former FBI Director Louis Freeh Begins Conducting Independent Penn State Probe</a> (inquisitr.com)</li><li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"><a href="http://leaderswedeserve.wordpress.com/2011/11/22/sandusky-trial-reveals-dilemmas-of-leadership-and-corporate-governance/">Sandusky trial reveals dilemmas of leadership and corporate governance</a> (leaderswedeserve.wordpress.com)</li></ul></div><div class="zemanta-pixie" style="height: 15px; margin-top: 10px;"><a class="zemanta-pixie-a" href="http://www.zemanta.com/" title="Enhanced by Zemanta"><img alt="Enhanced by Zemanta" class="zemanta-pixie-img" src="http://img.zemanta.com/zemified_e.png?x-id=9c330a21-85d6-4584-8687-4310511f7cf9" style="border: none; float: right;" /></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5478744714287779877-4695145678490839544?l=new-basement-tapes.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Chrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08037275282091912982noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478744714287779877.post-24927996277848727152011-11-22T07:09:00.001-05:002011-11-22T07:10:15.990-05:00What I want from a Kindle smartphone<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fdmJt-TCeGY/TsuRAZRyZlI/AAAAAAAADaY/gdryYVrKtbY/s1600/KindleDroid.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fdmJt-TCeGY/TsuRAZRyZlI/AAAAAAAADaY/gdryYVrKtbY/s200/KindleDroid.png" width="126" /></a></div><a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-57327854-1/what-i-want-from-a-kindle-smartphone/">What I want from a Kindle smartphone | Crave - CNET</a><br /><div class="zemanta-related"><h6 class="zemanta-related-title" style="font-size: 1em; margin: 1em 0 0 0;">Related articles</h6><ul class="zemanta-article-ul"><li class="zemanta-article-ul-li"><a href="http://r.zemanta.com/?u=http%3A//www.cbsnews.com/8301-205_162-57326858/kindle-smartphone-report-says-ones-on-the-way/&a=62938183&rid=8e7c909c-0a38-40f1-b934-661a78a9061e&e=07287efb20503d40d9aabdb8ab10e1c8">Kindle smartphone?

With the unveiling of iTunes Match and Google Music, Apple and Google are clearly squaring off in what may prove to be an interesting and important battle for the “hearts and minds” of digital music consumers. Of at least equal relevance, it pits the “end-to-end” philosophy of Steve Jobs and Apple against the supposedly more open approach of Google. (I say supposedly because I’m not convinced that in the end Brin and Page’s desire to shape the user experience is all that different from the one Steve Jobs espoused. Yes, Google’s approach and means are different than those of Apple’s, and Apple charges $25 to use iTunes Match, but it seems today that each company is working to devise a “digital ecosystem” capable of supporting the full spectrum of user needs, the principal difference being that large chunks of the Apple ecosystem now rely on having an Apple computer and/or handheld device that runs the latest version of OS X or iOS. That difference is significant, and I don’t mean to suggest otherwise, but I’m not certain that it is profound or that it effectively separates Apple from Google in terms of long term goals and intents.) </p><br /><br /><p style="text-align: left">Even if you’re not interested in listening to music online, this match should be worth watching closely, inasmuch as it is likely to be no more than the first round of a series of battles over content and its delivery enjoining Apple, Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and maybe even Facebook. Plus the U.S. government and the European Union. With color commentary by Lessig, Zittrain, and a host of others. Stay tuned.</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5478744714287779877-885372125656401505?l=new-basement-tapes.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Chrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08037275282091912982noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478744714287779877.post-56469864124942557292011-11-20T08:09:00.001-05:002011-11-20T08:10:06.987-05:00Stephen Hawking: Colonize space, or else<div class="separator" style="clear: both;

It also stems from the sense that there is a social ecology under scholarly communications, and that this ecology is not understood well enough to encourage radical change.</div><div class="zemanta-pixie" style="height: 15px;
