ALL BOILER PLATE is at the end.
Signing off for this week.
Anyone following this debate over "health care privacy"? One report that I read said that Bill Clinton's medical "privacy" regulation adopted by President Bush will cost $18 billion over 10 years with no benefit. Do you need any more evidence that there is very little difference between the Democans and the Republocrats? Federal intrusion in areas where it has no legitimate constitutional role, like our medical care, creates a cesspool of waste, fraud, and inefficiency. Working in information security, I can report that in my circle, this regulation is recognized as lessening information security and privacy. The proper role of the government is very small; let's shrink it back to size. It couldn't be that this is an attempt to cajole us out of what little privacy we have left by creating "standards" that are worthless. Nah, that's cynical. Or is it?
Reflect well on our alma mater, this week, every week, in any and every way possible, large or small. God bless.

HEADLINE: Reaching Out From Inner Circle
BYLINE: Mohamad Bazzi
One is Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's boyhood friend and his most trusted adviser. The other has been one of the mayor's most important political patrons.
Peter Powers and Raymond Harding have played crucial roles in Giuliani's personal and political lives.
Powers, 57, served as Giuliani's first deputy mayor and became the second most-powerful man in City Hall.
The two have been friends for more than 40 years, since they met at Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School in Brooklyn. They both attended Manhattan College in the Bronx, where they joined the same fraternity and ran together for student office. They later attended New York University Law School together.
Powers managed Giuliani's first two mayoral campaigns, including the failed campaign of 1989, when Giuliani lost to David Dinkins by 2 percentage points.
"He has been the source of a tremendous amount of personal support for me," Giuliani said in August 1996 when he announced Powers' resignation as deputy mayor.
Powers left city government to join a hedge fund, and two years later he started a consulting firm that has clients with hundreds of millions of dollars in business before the Giuliani administration.
The two have remained close, and Powers reemerged last year as a key confidante to Giuliani on his marital and health problems.
Harding, 66, is the state Liberal Party leader whose endorsement helped Giuliani win the mayoralty in 1993.
Since then, Harding's party and his law firm have reaped the benefits. Harding's firm saw a boom in its lobbying business.
Two of Harding's children now work in the administration. Son Robert is the $156,000-a-year deputy mayor for economic development and another son, Russell, is president of the city's Housing Development Corp.
In the mayor's spoof of "The Godfather" at last month's Inner Circle show, Harding played hitman Luca Brazzi.
In 1995, Powers played the part of a schoolboy in an Inner Circle spoof of the Broadway musical "Grease." Giuliani played the lead role.

Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and his wife, actress Donna Hanover, saw their income jump by $ 75,000 in 2000, due mostly to Hanover's film and television work, according to tax returns released Friday.
The mayor and his wife earned $ 488,148 in 2000, compared with $413,603 the year before. They earned $ 508,533 in 1998, the highest amount during Giuliani's two terms.
In 2000, Giuliani earned $ 178,701 as mayor, and his wife earned $ 309,447.
The couple paid $ 146,055 in federal taxes and $ 49,463 in city and state taxes.
Among the couple's $ 13,959 in charitable contributions were $ 200 to Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, where Giuliani was successfully treated for prostate cancer last year; $ 2,000 to the Prostate Research Cancer Fund; and $ 500 to Manhattan College, Giuliani's alma mater.
The couple filed a joint return even though Giuliani filed for divorce last year after he began seeing another woman.

HEADLINE: Air Force offers shot of top gun adrenaline;
Recruiting: F-16 flight simulators get the attention of the Air Force's target
audience.
BYLINE: Johnathon E. Briggs
SOURCE: SUN STAFF
There was a Toys R Us across the street, but all the kids were lined up outside Annapolis Mall yesterday for the newest toy in town: the U.S. Air Force Experience.
Who could blame them? A real F-16 Fighting Falcon on display in the parking lot lured them to the high-tech recruiting exhibition that rolled into this Navy town Tuesday. Inside the huge trailer, the show aimed for its audience with giant video screen presentations, computer kiosks and a fleet of F-16 flight simulators that dared them to pilot a high-speed virtual mission.
The road show is designed to beef up the Air Force's recruiting as young people ages 17 to 25 -- the target audience -- have been gunning for high-paying civilian careers instead of military service.
Like other branches of the armed services, the Air Force in recent years has struggled to meet recruitment goals, and for fiscal year 1999, it fell 2.8 percent short of its 33,800 target. That had not happened since 1979, officials said. They also blame base closures and a reduced community presence for the falling numbers.
"Until two years ago, (the Air Force) never bought TV or radio advertising. We've had to increase our marketing budget and increase the number of street recruiters," Air Force Recruiting Service spokesman Maj. Terry Bowman said yesterday from his office in Texas.
Today, recruitment numbers are up, he said, thanks in part to this exhibition which "has been great help in reconnecting with America. It's a nice way to bring the Air Force to someone's back yard."
Hereford Middle School seventh-grader Andrew McLean, who is torn between a career in the Air Force and the Navy, couldn't wait to go on board yesterday with his father, Richard McLean, 55.
"You think you're top gun, fighting material?" fictional pilot John "Screech" York, the exhibit's virtual tour guide, asked the pair from a video screen. "It's a brain-draining experience, but one that could be the time of your life."
York registered the new "pilots" for their mission, assigned them code names -- Andrew became "Mocha," his father "Rowdy" -- before leading them to the preflight briefing in the next room.
Their mission: Destroy a bridge and abandoned oil derrick while dodging enemy flak. As the rookie pilots move into the simulator room, York reminds them that "the safety and security of the nation is in your capable hands."
But some hands are more capable than others.
Andrew, whose hand-eye coordination has been honed by hours of video games, was wobbly with the sensitive flight controls at first, but by the end of the five-minute mission, fired several air-to-surface missiles at the derrick.
His father sped low and fast through a canyon, only to crash on his attempted landing. His cockpit vibrated just enough to give the feel of impact.
"I told him after this he doesn't have to go to Disneyland," McLean, of Manchester, said of his son's Easter vacation plans.
"It was really cool. I could almost feel it in my stomach," gushed the 12-year-old, clutching his new photo ID card that came with a computer screen saver that links to the Air Force's Web site. He can't sign up for another five years but said the Air Force won this round of recruiting.
"This is a recruiter's dream," Staff Sgt. James Rumer said of the exhibition. "Our motto is 'No one comes close' and it's true to its word."
Recruiters in the trailer talked to visitors, answered questions and explained how the Air Force could enhance their education and career opportunities.
Airman 1st Class Paul Weinstein, 22, signed up two years ago to advance his dragging college career. The New Yorker said he struggled to hold down a full-time roofing job in Brooklyn and attend Manhattan College in the Bronx, where tuition was $20,000. He had a scholarship, but it covered half his expenses.
"I was killing myself trying to work and go to school," he recalled. "I looked around and the Air Force offered the best lifestyle and the best options for me. It's not easy going to school on a ship," he said, referring to the Navy.
Now based at Fort Meade, he is 1 1/2 semesters from getting a bachelor's degree in business management. His father, a Vietnam veteran who was in the Navy, jokingly calls him a "wing waxer," he said.
"But all in all, he's happy I joined."
The U.S. Air Force Experience will be at the Westfield Shoppingtown Annapolis, 2001 Annapolis Mall, from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. today and tomorrow, and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. It's on a cross-country tour through September.

MANHATTAN BASEBALL DROPS DOUBLEHEADER AT FAIRFIELD
FAIRFIELD, CT – The Manhattan College baseball team dropped both ends of a doubleheader, 6-2 and 4-0, to MAAC opponent Fairfield on Saturday afternoon.
The Jaspers started off the afternoon well as they took a 1-0 lead in the top of the 1st inning of the first game on a single by sophomore Dan Blackman (Syosset, NY) and an RBI single by Eric Sullivan (Ronkonkoma, NY), but Manhattan left runners on second and third in that inning. Fairfield would score three runs in both the bottom of the second and third innings as they knocked starter Ryan Darcy (Levittown, NY) out of the game. Manhattan scored another in the sixth inning, but the Jaspers never really threatened to get back in the game.
In the second game, Fairfield’s Steve Colcord pitched a dominating seven-inning shutout. He allowed only two hits, both to Blackman, walked none, and struck out nine to improve to 3-4 on the year. Senior Tom Foley (Blue Point, NY) gave up 4 runs, all earned in five innings pitched to take the loss and fall to 4-3 on the season.
Blackman finished the doubleheader 3-6, with a walk and a run scored. Manhattan’s bullpen pitched well, as three different pitchers went a total of 7 innings and gave up only five hits and one run.
With the sweep, Fairfield improved to 10-18 overall, 8-6 MAAC, while Manhattan dropped to 12-14 overall, 4-7 MAAC. The two teams will meet for the final time this year on Monday at 12:00 pm.

Can you put me in touch with Leonard Wood 1972
Thanks

[JR: Not by email. What you saw was my reporting that his email address dropped of the Jasper Jottings email distribution list. The best I can do is give you the information I used to send him a post card. I suggest that you give him a call. Because he is a lawyer, I verified the information against the Martingale lawyer's database. Here's what I have. Good luck. Let's us know how you make out.]

Thanks for the invitation, but I'm already subscribed at my office e-mail address: <privacy invoked>. By the way, notwithstanding the complaints that one sometimes reads, I think you are doing a remarkable job and deserve all the credit in the world. The political and religious blurbs help make things more interesting. If someone doesn't like them, they don't have to read them. Diversity is what makes the country great, and makes life a lot more interesting.
[JR: I guess if I was more organized, or had any organization at all, I would have known that. But, I am still traveling up the "data, information, knowledge, and wisdom" curve and I am down in the "drowning id data" section. Thanks for the kudos. The comments are the price of admission which is what some people don't realize.]

Dear John,

[JR: Boy, eveyone's trying to get on my good side this week. Those Easter "Savior-related" movies must have really had an impact. I especially thought the animation or claymation one was really "lame". All comments gratefully accepted but you still have to pay full-price for the subscription.]

A collection copyright is asserted to protect against any misuse of original material.
Operating Jasper Jottings, the "collector-in-chief", aka CIC, recognizes that every one of us needs privacy. In respect of your privacy, I will protect any information you provide to the best of my ability. No one needs "unsolicited commercial email" aka spam.

This effort has NO FORMAL RELATION to Manhattan College!
This is just my idea and has no support nor any official relationship with Manhattan College. As an alumni, we have a special bond with Manhattan College. In order to help the College keep its records as up to date as possible, the CIC will share such information as the Alumni office wants. To date, we share the news, any "new registrations" (i.e., data that differs from the alumni directory), and anything we find about "lost" jaspers.
You may only subscribe to the list, visit the web site, read the archives, and submit items for publication only if you have demonstrated a connection to Manhattan College. This may require providing information about yourself to assert the claim to a connection. Decisions of the CIC are final. If you do provide such personal information, such as email, name, address or telephone numbers, we will not disclose it to anyone except as described here.
Should you wish to connect to someone else on the list, you must send in an email to the list requesting the connection. We will respond to you, so you know we received your request, and send a BCC (i.e., Blind Carbon Copy) of our response to your target with your email address visible. Thus by requesting the connection, you are allowing us to share your email address with another list member. After that it is up to the other to respond to you. Bear in mind that anything coming to the list or to me via my reinkefj@alum.manhattan.edu address is assumed to be for publication to the list and you agree to its use as described.
