Wikipedia's latest scandal is the revelation that a very high-ranking 
administrator, and employee (until this month) of an associated commercial 
venture, Wikia, had falsified his academic credentials. Concerns had been

said: "[A contributor called Essjay] was described in the piece as 'a tenured 
professor of religion at a private university' with 'a PhD in theology and a 
degree in canon law' ... Essjay now says that his real name is Ryan Jordan, 
that he is 24 and holds no advanced degrees, and that he has never taught."

CAIJING magazine, one of the most influential publications in China, was

Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Patterns Are Associated With Selected 
Adolescent Health Risk Behaviors by Melissa C. Nelson & Penny Gordon-Larsen 
(Pediatrics) (full text requires subscription)
Little is known about how physical activity (PA), sedentary behavior, and 
various adolescent health risk behaviors are associated. The objective of this 
study was to examine relationships between PA and sedentary behavior patterns 
and an array of risk behaviors, including leading causes of adolescent 
morbidity/mortality. CONCLUSIONS. Participation in a range of PA-related 
behaviors, particularly those characterized by high parental sports/exercise 
involvement, was associated with favorable adolescent risk profiles. 
Adolescents with high TV/video viewership were less likely to have positive 
risk behavior outcomes. Enhancing opportunities for PA and sport may have a 
beneficial effect on leading adolescent risk behaviors.

In a high-profile speech and an op-ed in the Financial Times, Microsoft has 
gone out of its way to attack Google, claiming that Google's Library Project 
"systematically violates copyright" and that YouTube "knowingly tolerates 
piracy." There is something more important here than just the latest spat 
between these industry titans: the proper relationship between copyright and 
innovation. In these screeds against Google, Microsoft comes out in favor of 
"collaboration" -- in other words, asking permission of affected copyright 
owners before innovating. It attacks Google for "unilateralism" -- in other 
words, innovating without asking permission first. Microsoft frames the 
question this way: "should business models that are built on the backs of 
others' intellectual property choose a path that respects IP, or a path that 
devalues it?"
