Earlier this year, the University of Delaware (UD) considered a tobacco-free campus policy that contained a provision (PDF) that would have forbidden "[u]niversity programs, departments, and student organizations, including campus publications … from accepting money, advertising, and gifts from tobacco companies."

University of Delaware General Counsel Gets Confused about the Supreme Court and Free Speech
Say what you will about the University of Delaware's many free speech problems over the years, but the university almost always comes around (eventually) when confronted with the fact that it has violated the First Amendment.

In today's Delaware News Journal—the leading Delaware newspaper—Beth Miller reports on the ongoing controversy over the University of Delaware's residential program for undergraduates, which was largely cancelled last year for its attempts to indoctrinate students with a highly politicized ideology.

University of Delaware Rejects New Residence Life Proposal
The University of Delaware (UD) Faculty Senate's Student Life Committee has rejected a proposal from the Office of Residence Life to run a new residential program in the Delaware dorms next year.

More Reflections on University of Delaware Indoctrination Program
This week, Thomas Wood continues his series for the National Association of Scholars on "How Many Delawares?" with "Res Life and the Decline of Campus Community (Part I)."

Looking Back at the University of Delaware
When FIRE first heard reports of a mandatory thought reform program at the University of Delaware (UD) this fall, we began an investigation that led to our exposing a deeply disturbing attempt at ideological reeducation—right in the residence halls of a public university in America.

Taking My Licks at the University of Delaware
Last night I realized that I have had it pretty easy all these years speaking on college campuses as a First Amendment advocate. After dozens of speeches at dozens of colleges, I've come to expect low to moderate turnout. Those who show up largely support free speech even if it's controversial (at least in theory),… Read more

Thirteen people have tried to kill the president of the United States. Four have succeeded. These murderers and would be murderers are generally dismissed as maniacs and misfits who have little in common with each other, and nothing in common with the rest of us. Assassins suggests otherwise. The individual stories of the nine successful and unsuccessful US presidential assassins are intriguingly woven together in this darkly humorous and powerful award-winning musical that features some of Sondheim's most compelling and lyrical music. Set in an amusement park shooting gallery where time bends and characters who never actually knew one another come face to face, Sondheim and Weidman explore the misfits who wanted to change history.
Assassins closed on 06 August 2016.

The Blob is a fine example of 1950's schlock, marketed specifically to teenage audiences. The film beings with a teenage couple at "Lover's Lane", watching the sky, when they see a meteor fall to earth. Unbeknownst to them, an old man finds the meteor and his hand is consumed by the gooey stuff inside. After almost running him over, the couple take the old man to the doctor where the alien goop eats him whole. The more this "blob" consumes, the larger it gets.
Some film scholars have said that The Blob is a thinly veiled propaganda piece about the growing threat of communism. The filmmakers have denied this and I have to agree. If one were making anti-communist propaganda, you could probably do better than The Blob. Cinema myths aside, this film is a great deal of fun and features a young Steve McQueen is his first leading role.
The Blob spawned a comedy sequel as well as a remake and several homages, most notably in Monsters Vs. Aliensas well as Spiderman 3. This film is also best remembered for its crowded panic at the movie theater scene. If you want to see the beginnings of teenage marketing in a fun 1950s film, The Blob is certainly the way to go.

Pumas triumphs, Club America remains winless
The 2023 Liga MX Clausura is well underway.
The third week of the tournament saw several surprises, including a shocking hat-trick by Rogelio Funes Mori to inspire the 3-1 victory for Rayados de Monterrey over Atletico San Luis. Elsewhere, Pachuca continued to exert their dominance with a 4-1 win against FC Juarez, while Pumas bounced back from a turbulent week off the field.
Here's everything you missed this weekend in Liga MX…

Before even reaching the pitch, Pumas UNAM held a press conference to announce the termination of Dani Alves' contract with the club. Pumas president Leopoldo Silva firmly stated his actions did not align with team values.
"With the information that occurred today about the legal process that the player Dani Alves is facing, and for which he is detained in Spain, we have determined to communicate the following: the Club Universidad Nacional has made the decision to terminate the employment contract with Dani Alves from this day on," said president of Pumas Leopoldo Silva.
"With this decision, the club reiterates its commitment not to tolerate acts by any member of our institution, whoever they may be, that go against the university spirit and its values."
The team then took the field against Club Leon on Sunday, their third match of the 2023 Liga MX Clausura. Pumas wasted no time, earning the early lead in the 9th minute of the match with a goal by Gustavo Javier del Prete.
Leon managed to find the equalizer in the first half, before Pumas scored three more in the second 45 to triumph 4-1. The team now sits in fourth place on the table, with six points in three games.

Club America has yet to win a game in the 2023 Liga MX Clausura.
The team drew 2-2 against Puebla on Saturday night at the Estadio Azteca, propelling the Eagles to a three game winless streak. Goals from Alejandro Zendejas and Henry Martin initially earned Club America the edge, before being canceled out by efforts from Gaston Silva and Emanuel Gularte to earn each side one point.
But with just three points in the last three games, America head coach Fernando Ortiz insists the team is not in 'crisis mode' yet.
"I do not see the crisis, It is something worrying to call, yes, with respect to the goals that they are scoring against us, but for the rest I am calm," he said.
"Difficult, the start that we are having, but we have to continue working. it's the only solution, we have good things at times but we cannot have those oversights; above all we have to take advantage of all that we have and below we cannot allow that definitively," added forward Henry Martin.

Pachuca continues to stun, leaving behind the 'curse' of the reigning champions.
The 2022 Apertura winners triumphed 4-1 over FC Juarez on Sunday, extending their dominance in the 2023 Clausura. Young Mexican national team prospect Mauricio Isais kicked off the scoring for Pachuca, followed by goals from defender José Castillo Pérez and forward Roberto de la Rosa.
The victory comes just days after Pachuca saw their leading goalscorer Nico Ibáñez transfer to Tigres. The departure forced Pachuca head coach Guillermo Almada to find new options in the attack, looking to young figures and academy players. And the team did not disappoint.

Nexaca defeated Cruz Azul 1-0, with a goal by Édgar Méndez in the first half.
Rogelio Funes Mori propelled Rayados de Monterrey to a 3-1 victory over Atletico San Luis with a hat-trick.
Santos Laguna doubled down with another consecutive victory, this time a 2-1 triumph over Mazatlan.

Carrie Underwood & Brad Paisley Rock CMA Awards With Kim Kardashian Tune
Julie Ryan Evans November 9, 2011 at 10:09 PM
There's a reason that this was the fourth year that Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley were chosen to host the Country Music Awards -- because they rock them. Looking amazing in an array of gorgeous gowns, Carrie was radiant, and Brad is just always smokin'. Plus, they were hilarious as they mocked everyone from Kim Kardashian to Hank Williams Jr.
They started with a little ditty about Hank's little NFL fiasco after he compared President Obama to Hitler. No matter if you agree with the NFL's decision to drop his song from Monday Night Football or not, you have to admit their lyrics were hilarious. To the tune of "Family Tradition," it went something like this:
Country music singers have always been a real close family. But lately one of our kinfolk made some people mad on national TV.
And people wanna know Hank, why do you drink (before an interview!)?
Why do you smoke (before an interview!)?
Football ain't the same without that song that you wrote.
Stop and think it over, and let me help you get the picture.
You can get drunk and start carrying on, but you can't compare the president to Hitler.
And then out came Hank Williams Jr., who then went into: Are you ready for an awards show? Are you ready to party?
They also played with the Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Barbie dolls, made them make out, and examined them for anatomical correctness. "There's nothing there. Poor Faith," Carrie quipped. But it was the song about Kim Kardashian's short-lived marriage to Kris Humphries that was the most hilarious.
To the tune of the Randy Travis song "Forever and Ever, Amen," they sang:
I'm going to love you forever. For 72 days, Amen.
As long as Justin Bieber is not a conceiver. As long as Taylor Swift is with her current boyfriend.
I'm gonna love you for $21 million. For a hit TV series. For pitching Us Weekly.
For 72 days, Aaaaa-men.
And that was just in the first 10 minutes or so. I can't wait to see what the rest of the show brings.
Do you think Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley did a good job hosting the CMA Awards this year? What were your favorite moments?

A funny play that ist at the City Theater for a few more days. I recently watched a few episodes of VH1's The Pick Up Artists at the gym. I was laughing so hard I almost fell off the treadmill. So I thought this play looks like a good time.

In The Male Intellect: An Oxymoron?, a regular guy tries to figure out what women really want after he gets dumped by his girlfriend. He looks from right brain to left, and when self-help books don't actually help, he consults five dubious role-models: a French lover, a fast-talking jerk, an old fisherman, a Southern-fried Colonel, and a bone-headed tough-guy. This hit comedy ultimately celebrates the difference between the sexes with non-stop laughter.

Proud Partners of Edinburgh International Film Festival
With just one week to go until the Edinburgh International Film Festival officially launches, movie-lovers from all over the world are gearing up for the 73rd edition of one of the oldest and most renowned celebrations of cinema. We're very excited to be sponsoring the In Person strand of this year's festival, with a fantastic line up of names from both sides of the camera sharing the experiences that have inspired them and their work.
Just as the experiences of the filmmakers shape their films, the films themselves can shape their audiences too. We chatted to our Financial Services Consulting Partner Ewen Fleming about his favourite films, and which one in particular led to a lifelong interest and almost a very different career…
Is there a particular film which has really stuck with you? What stood out about it?
Dr Zhivago is the first film I have vivid memories of; that was my first trip to a cinema. I could only have been 5 or 6 and would only have seen children's films up until that point, so it completely blew my mind! It still captivates me now the same way it did when I was 6; the history and the story and the cinematography. I've always been intrigued by history, and I think seeing Dr Zhivago at such a young age inspired that - coupled with the fact that my parents favoured holidays in Scotland wandering around castles! World War One and the Russian Civil War are particular areas of interest, plus I took Sixth Year studies on Scottish history and the Wars of Scottish Independence. I did actually consider becoming a history teacher at one point!
I also distinctly remember a scene in the film where the characters are being transported from Moscow to the Ural Mountains, and the ice breaks over the train cattle carriage to reveal this beautiful snowy landscape. It was a real "wow" moment amidst such a grim storyline. I've been a keen amateur photographer for years now, and it's always landscapes I'm drawn to over anything else - I cycle a lot, and often I'll stop to capture a stunning sky or an interesting configuration of fields or trees. It's funny what forms you; you don't realise at the time that a fleeting shot in a film can spark a real appreciation for something which then becomes a lifelong hobby.
What film could you watch over and over again?
Dr Zhivago, of course!
Aside from that, Gladiator is a firm favourite too. The war scenes are incredible, and contrast perfectly with the softer scenes - the flashbacks to the wife and son Russell Crowe's character, Maximus, has lost. As a parent, those moments have a real impact on you.
The strength of character shown by Maximus is another aspect I love - the will to stick to his purpose through all of the trials he endures so that he can claim justice. The whole film is absolutely gripping.
Consulting is about understanding how all the working parts come together to form the big picture, and so is filmmaking. I love the sheer complexity and how you find a way through it. In both business consulting and film, you have all these different elements and you develop a methodology to weave them together, resulting in a successful project.
Is there a filmmaker or actor who inspires you?
Clint Eastwood - a boyhood cinema hero who has lasted in a fickle industry. He's kept reinventing himself to remain relevant, and that longevity and ability to adapt is really admirable. In a lot of his early films all you saw was good looks, so it would have been easy to write him off as 'eye candy' - but as the years went on, you began to realise than he's a very deep thinker, who knows what he's doing and has really mastered the art of filmmaking. He's evolved into someone who has enjoyed immense success both in front of and behind the camera, across a lot of different genres.
What parallels do you see between the world of filmmaking and the world of consulting and business advisory?
Consulting is about understanding how all the working parts come together to form the big picture, and so is filmmaking. It's millions of frames, hundreds or even thousands of individuals, all crafted together around the story and the relationships - and when that's done well, what you have is a finished film that means something to people. In both business consulting and film, I love the sheer complexity and how you find a way through it. You have all these different elements and you develop a methodology to weave them together, resulting in a successful project. If you have the right content, the right input and the right approach, then you're guaranteed a positive outcome.
What are you most looking forward to about this year's Film Festival?
I have worked predominantly in London and so for many years I've missed the Film Festival. Edinburgh is an incredible city - relatively small in size yet so rich in both culture and industry. I'm most looking forward to the injection it always gets at festival times with so many new people coming in; so many influences from outside the city and indeed outside Scotland. It makes it very cosmopolitan and I think cities always benefit from that.

Johnston Carmichael cast as In Person sponsor of Edinburgh International Film Festival
Scotland's largest independent accountancy and business advisory firm, Johnston Carmichael, are taking to the red carpet this year and partnering with the Edinburgh International Film Festival (EIFF).


The Qatari developer accused of withholding payment from Carillion and contributing to its collapse is understood to be considering legal action against the company to recoup £200m it says it is owed.
Msheireb Properties said it is "exploring all legal options" after former Carillion chief executive Richard Howson placed much of the blame for the outsourcer's downfall at its door.
Mr Howson told MPs at a select committee earlier this month that he had felt like a "bailiff" as he travelled back and forth to the Middle East in order to negotiate payments for a project Carillion was building with Msheireb in downtown Doha.

Marching bravely towards recession
While our allies tread warily in the ongoing fight against inflation, Canada is in the process of completely turning off the ignition
DIANE FRANCIS October 2 1989
Marching bravely towards recession DIANE FRANCIS October 2 1989
DIANE FRANCIS
Great leaders have vision. Great leaders have commitment to their causes. Great leaders are rare. In fact, most countries are shortchanged when it comes to their leaders. Britain is the exception. Like rain and football violence, it seems to have more than its fair share. Consider that, in this century, it has had two standouts: Sir Winston Churchill, who stirred the world into making huge sacrifices to fight Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, and its current Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, who has step-marched Britain out of an entrenched socialist morass and near-bankruptcy toward balanced budgets, economic growth and lower taxation. Meanwhile, Canada remains the land where the bland lead the bland.
But thanks to one of the country's most powerful postwar leaders, Bank of Canada governor John Crow, Canada now verges on greatness. Unspoiled by the need to be elected, Crow has a vision and steers an exceedingly straight and narrow path towards it. He is determined to make Canada an inflation-free nation, something never achieved before without the assistance of a full-blown recession or the saturation bombing of industrial sites. Undaunted, Crow persists in his policy, imposing high interest rates on Canadians from coast to coast, to destroy inflation.
Such unflagging resolve promises victory soon, if it hasn't already arrived. On Aug. 20, Statistics Canada published figures showing that, for the past three quarters, ending on June 30 of this year, the country's economy began slowing down. Employment growth increased by only one per cent during this period. Inventories in factories and stores climbed to levels which threaten to trigger layoffs and slowdowns. And finally, best of all, high interest rates and the concomitant higher Canadian dollar translated into a plunge in exports.
To Crow and his inflation-fighting cronies at the Bank of Canada, this is singularly good news, because if a high-priced Canadian dollar is pushing exports down, the converse is true:
imports are up because they are cheaper due to a lower U.S. dollar by comparison. And conventional wisdom holds that cheap imports mean less inflation.
Unfortunately, not everyone agrees with Crow's strategy. Detractors say that fighting inflation with high interest rates is like fighting fire with fire—as the rates go up, so does inflation. While correct, they are slightly misinformed. Crow's interest rates would fuel inflation figures if the rates themselves were included as part of the consumer price index—a survey that Crow monitors constantly for signs of inflation. But they are not included (other than mortgage rates), and only seep in, usually many months later, in the form of higher prices.
Crow is a consummate leader, untainted and unaffected by petty concerns. What better person should manage our economy than one who has always been a bureaucrat? Add to that the fact that the man is untouchable. A British economist from world-famous Oxford University, he enjoys greater job security than does the Prime Minister, as former Tory prime minister John Diefenbaker discovered. When Diefenbaker drove his governor, James Coyne, from office in 1961 over Coyne's refusal to
back government policy that would have expanded the economy by increasing the money supply, the governor's departure triggered a run on the dollar. It also produced fears, both domestic and foreign, that a politician in charge could simply print Canadian dollars in order to buy votes. The resulting political and economic backlash made the governor's position untouchable.
Without a doubt, we can all sleep more soundly in our beds tonight knowing that Diefenbaker's lesson has been learned. Crow's tenured position allows him to be as rigid and inflexible as he needs to be, free to chart his own course even when the citizenry and its elected leaders disagree with both the destination and the route. More importantly, Crow's privileged perch frees him from tacky political pressure and question-and-answer periods in the House of Commons, where he might have to explain why it is fair, or appropriate, to impose one national interest rate on a country with rates of inflation, and even deflation, that vary greatly from region to region.
Unfettered by such niggling details, Crow can avoid the aggravation of having to devise workable regional interest rates, as Japan has done to slow down some regions and speed up others, or some form of levy to do the same.
Unimpeded, he gains stature continuously, even requiring his own employer, the federal government, to make the greatest sacrifices. As Crow raises interest rates, the federal government deficit becomes more and more expensive to finance. Currently, $1 out of every $4 spent by the federal government goes to paying lenders. Ottawa's interest payments are now about $33 billion, or the equivalent of twice the money spent on benefits for the elderly.
Some decry all this. But would Churchill have stopped bombing Germany because of a little civilian bloodshed? Would Margaret Thatcher be deterred by disastrous economic indicators, if export success stood in the way of greater economic goals? Get real. Crow's critics should lighten up. Think of the trees and resources saved as a result of collapsing exports.
And Crow pushes us to the forefront internationally. While our allies tread warily in their fight against inflation by slowing down their economies just a little to engineer a so-called economic soft landing, we're in the process of completely turning off the ignition.
The bottom line is that Canadians who are not already on their knees over Crow's policies should get down on them. I, for one, am proud to be a part of Crow's draconian policies. Of course, my home is paid for, I have no other debts, my employers don't rely on exports, and my savings are securely locked away in taxsheltered treasury bills. I'm also grateful. Face it. Crow saves us from ourselves, notably those misguided few who would invest in, or work for, heavily mortgaged steel mills that struggle to pay high interest rates at home by exporting goods that are too expensive abroad because our dollar is too high. AU I can say is, John Crow, this is a nation on its knees because of you. Keep up the good work.

About AUSC Workshops
The last AUSC workshop was held in Rome, Italy in December 2017. The principal focus was on AUSC materials research, largely thanks to 'Demonstration Plant 700℃' (DP700) – a European research consortium which presented the findings of its first phase at the event. Representatives from AUSC research efforts in the US, India, China, and Japan also shared a stage with the European researchers on the first day, while the second day was devoted to major developments in state-of-the-art power plant.
For the last twenty years, researchers have targeted AUSC as the next stage in the evolution of coal plant, envisioning a power plant which uses the nickel superalloys originally developed for jet engines to harness steam at 700℃– thus raising the efficiency of the steam cycle to 50%. The challenge has been to develop and test a spectrum of new and existing steels and nickel superalloys for roles throughout the plant and build confidence and regulatory approval that they can operate safely throughout a power plant's long lifetime. However, progress has not been as straight-forward as expected, and early European efforts encountered some problems with a few materials.
The incremental efficiency improvements made possible by the technologies described may not seem hugely significant in the context of the 10 GtCO2/y emitted by coal power plant. And yet, the extent of the global coal fleet is such that huge savings of over 2 Gt/year are possible if inefficient plant can be replaced by the state-of-the-art in HELE plant, and even more if efficiencies can be pushed to 50%. At the workshop, India's NTPC called for greater international coordination on AUSC development, and to establish better linkages with global climate initiatives. We hope that this workshop series and other international projects of the IEACCC are making significant strides in this direction.

Q: P(X > Y - 1/2), given X and Y are uniform(0,1) I'm trying to calculate this, using the law of total probability. My understanding is that the answer should be 1/2.
$\displaystyle P\left(X > Y - \frac{1}{2}\right) = \int_{0}^{1} P\left(X > Y - \frac{1}{2} \middle| Y = y\right) \cdot f_Y(y) \cdot dy$
Solving the first term on the integral:
$\displaystyle P\left(X > Y - \frac{1}{2} \middle| Y = y\right) = 1 - F_x\left(y-\frac{1}{2}\right) = 1 - \int_{0}^{y-\frac{1}{2}} dx = \frac{3}{2} - y$
And combining it with the second:
$\displaystyle P\left(X > Y - \frac{1}{2}\right) = \int_{0}^{1} \left(\frac{3}{2} - y\right) \cdot 1 \cdot dy = 1$
Which seems incorrect.. could someone please point out what I'm missing?

A: For $0<y<1$ we have
$$P\left(X>y-\frac{1}{2}\right)=
\begin{cases}
1 & \text{ if } y\le \frac{1}{2}\\
\frac{3}{2}-y & \text{ if } y>\frac{1}{2}
\end{cases}
$$
So
$$P\left(X>Y-\frac{1}{2}\right)=\int_0^{1/2}1\,dy+\int_{1/2}^1 \left(\frac{3}{2}-y\right) dy=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{8}=\frac{7}{8}$$

A: Demonstration of this result using simulation in R statistical software,
with 100,000 realizations of $(X,Y).$
 m = 10^5;  x = runif(m);  y = runif(m)
 cond = (x > y - .5)  # logical vector of TRUEs and FALSEs
 mean(cond)           # proportion of TRUEs
 ## 0.87414           # aprx P(X > Y - 1/2)
 7/8
 ## 0.875             # exact P(X > Y - 1/2)

So the answer is not 1/2, as you speculated. In the plot below, the green
region corresponds to the desired probability. Because the joint PDF equals 1
over the unit square, the desired probability is the area of the green region
times 1. So the problem can be solved using geometry instead of calculus.
But if you insist on using (more generally applicable) calculus, then the
illustration will help you get the correct limits of integration.

A: Another perspective: Since both random variables are uniformly distributed, you can examine the unit square with lower-left corner at the origin, and compare the area of the portion of that square for which $X > Y - 1/2$ with the area of the entire square (which is just $1$).
This will give you a graphical notion of the analytical answer given by Momo.
