Question by RLP: Why is UC Berkely now asking for DNA samples of incoming freshmen…I know what they say…but…WHY?
The students will be asked to voluntarily submit a DNA sample. The cotton swabs will come with two bar code labels. One label will be put on the DNA sample and the other is kept for the students own records.
The confidential process is being overseen by Jasper Rine, a campus professor of Genetics and Development Biology, who says the test results will help students make decisions about their diet and lifestyle.
Once the DNA sample is sent in and tested, it will show the student’s ability to tolerate alcohol, absorb folic acid and metabolize lactose.
The results of the test will be put in a secure online database where students will be able to retrieve their results by using their bar code.
Rine hopes that this will excite students to be more hands-on with their college experience.

Question by Jaybird: How to exclude Violent-Based and Harassment Campus Discipline offenders from leadership roles on campus?
My roommate was sexually harassed by a male student and his roommate. The male student was already expelled and was warned to stay off campus and cease contact. His roommate was involved indirectly in knowing what was going on but not stopping it and not preventing further harm to my roommate. The roommate faced alternative action in the judicial system to have some mediation.
So now my roommate applies to be a student congress rep, thinking it will help her heal and feel better. Then after announcing her consideration, the male roommate alternatively disciplined all of a sudden applies. She then withdraws her candidacy for the position appointment. I think this is unacceptable. Our administrators don’t seem to have brains to have a period where some folks can’t be involved in student activities. Not even giving victims time to heal seems unreal.
After discussing with the President and Secretary of the Student Congress, they suggested to write a resolution to change the rules, because we have no policy limiting who can serve in student congress. Other representatives that I sent it to help have said that because student discipline is confidential that students don’t have the right to receive information on discipline, which would prevent the student congress from enforcing it. My understanding is that FERPA regulations changed to allow more information to be shared in effect this Jan 2009, because of Virginia Tech and the presumption that information could not be shared, which would have or could have saved lives. Here, if someone is physically aggressive, or sexually harassing another person, having them lead all other organizations seems ridiculous.
Assuming our fantastic administrators just aren’t so fantastically exercising their responsibilities to minimize risks (which could be emphasized in their failures to fire RAs harassing women victims or threatening sexual assault or punishing them by mediation and non-recording of discipline but re-hiring them next year). This seems ridiculous to me and because the student congress has some authority and discretionary duties, who we put there should be subject to some ethical standard, in my opinion. Is there any administrator out there that has a good idea about how to deal with this? It seems these folks leading the university just aren’t the wisest.
Whereas, student leadership on campus is a privilege and an honor and STUDENT CONGRESS is no exception;
Whereas, STUDENT CONGRESS represents other student organizations and allocates fees and has greater powers and discretionary duties than regular organizations;
Whereas, the judicial system allows mediation and non-recording of offenses to help victims heal in alternative ways, but still can be disciplinary nonetheless;
Whereas, when perpetrators and others involved in perpetration of offenses can otherwise become student leaders and supervise or represent their victims can further trivialize prior incidents or disciplinary action;
Whereas, drug and alcohol offenses are not uncommon on college campuses and this resolution does not concern excluding or further penalizing on those grounds;
Whereas, this resolution also does not exclude from STUDENT CONGRESS candidates and leadership simply for being unsuccessfully accused of violent-based or harassment-based offenses, unless such action or remedies have been taken successfully in the University Judicial System;
Whereas, being suspended or expelled or having faced disciplinary charges from any school is a disqualifying factor that employers are allowed and usually do take into consideration as reflection of the candidate or their character;
Whereas, character in STUDENT CONGRESS leadership is highly important since trust is essential to meet constituents and engage in resolution of their issues;
Whereas, if a STUDENT CONGRESS Leader has physical aggression or other harassment-based issues, like sexual harassment or assault, we otherwise subject constituents to an aggressor or harasser;
Whereas, requiring special permission for violent-based or harassment-based discipline provides opportunity and time for agreement with the University and STUDENT CONGRESS before taking up a STUDENT CONGRESS leadership role;
Whereas, it is insensitive of STUDENT CONGRESS to subject victims to situations where they have to come to STUDENT CONGRESS and speak out against private situations where someone hurt them;
Whereas, when administrators don’t exert responsibility effectively, we also have authority independent of them over who we allow to serve and should articulate standards on discipline;
Whereas, STUDENT CONGRESS may not be a “job” but still involves substantial responsibility and interaction with people, and having leadership that has engaged in violent-based and harassment-based offenses with record of discipline or alternative discipline at University sets a bad precedent for the kind of leadership that we want to see and rew

Bayer is a global enterprise with core competencies in the fields of health care, nutrition and high-tech materials. The Real Origin of AIDS The AIDS virus was created by the United States government at Fort Dietrich in Maryland, a biological warfare laboratory in building number A550 in the P4 lab. The sum of US m was requested by the Defense Department to build the lab under the House of Representatives Bill number HR 15090 in the 91st Congress in 1970.7 Dr. Theodore Strecker writes, “The US National Cancer institute, in collaboration with the World Health Organization, manufactured the AIDS virus in their laboratories at Fort Detrich, Maryland. They combined two deadly retroviruses, the Bovine Leukemia Virus and the Visna Virus, and injected them into human tissue cultures. The result was the AIDS virus, the first human retrovirus known to man and now believed to be 100 percent fatal to those infected”.8 Dr. Strecker further contends that AIDS couldn’t have engineered itself, and reiterates that it was produced in a laboratory by virologists. “The World Health Organization (WHO) called for scientists to work with these deadly agents and attempt to make a hybrid virus that would be deadly to humans. An attempt was made to see if viruses could in fact exert selective effects on immune function. The possibility was looked into that the immune response to the virus itself would be impaired if the infecting virus damaged, more or less selectively, the cell responding to …

Question by richard h: How to keep Medical Records Private?
I know medical records are confidential. But I have a personal condition that I want evaluated without it becoming part of my medical history. I have a history of moderate to heavy alcohol use and want to get my liver function tested and see a liver specialist. When I go to see the specialist, I know I have to be honest about my entire history for him to do a complete exam. What I don’t want is some insurance company coming up 5 or 10 years from now and saying..”you’re an alcoholic and we don’t treat preexisting conditions.” It’s likely the specialist will find nothing wrong with me but I don’t want alcohol abuse to be any part of my medical history. I thought of just going and paying cash so my insurance company would not find out. Any ideas on how to keep a medical condition private. If I’m willing to pay cash it seems it should be my own business. Many of us have private medical things and are fools to think everything is confidential. Please just try and answer my question and keep moral opinions or advice to go to AA out of this. Thanks
I already booked an appt. so they have my name and Dob. I wonder if I just paid cash and did not give them my real social if this would somehow make into my records.

Good luck. As a truck driver, they now use the insurance companies to Monitor us. We had to sign a waver that allows the insurance Company to inform the trucking company of all doctors visits that use our insurance. Their excuse, taking medically unfit drivers off the road. Personally, Unless it is a REASON to take the driver off the road, it is none of their damn business.

Rantings of a MADMAN named Hubbard Episode 9 “L Ron Hubbard on Frozen Alcohol” From “Assists” lecture. 3 October 1968. #10 in the confidential Class VIII series of lectures: “They were imported. They were actually .. the trick was to shoot somebody, disable somebody, very often a needle into a lung and at the same time to hit him with frozen alcohol and glycol which preparation is guaranteed to pick up a Thetan. All they had to do was pick him up and put him in a refrigerator and they had him, boy. If he tried to exteriorize from the body, there he was, frozen. And they threw ‘em into collection points, boxed ‘em up in boxes, threw ‘em into space planes which were the exact copies of DC8′s, the DC8 airplane is the exact copy of the space plane of that day. And, no difference, except the DC8 had fans, propellers on it and the space plane didn’t.” Plus a Public Service Announcement by Commodore Bts2Free of the IJC and Commodore J.
