I got in late last night from the Underground Seminar event in DC – yes finally, after several flight delays and an unexpected overnight stay at the Hyatt! – so I’m just sitting down to my desk this morning for the first time in 6 days… What a mess! While my desk space is actually clean, well – after I went through the stack of mail at least, I was a bit overwhelmed at the number of Firefox windows and tabs I left open.

This past week the Boys and Girls Clubs of America came under fire by Chuck Grassley, the Republican senator from Iowa, who is making out-of-context political red meat of the salary of the organization’s CEO. The undeserved attack — reported in a major segment on CNN, in the Washington Post , the Huffington Post, and on the Associated Press — created what will likely now be a 10-year uphill public relations battle for the charity. In his introduction to the piece, CNN’s chief sensationalist Wolf Blitzer commented that “this is a pretty shocking story,” before one iota of information was delivered that would allow anyone to decide for themselves whether it was shocking or not

The unusual deal, proposed by a member of the corporation’s board who has long worked for the Caribbean school, has been met by an outcry from New York medical schools fearing that clerkship slots will grow scarcer and that they might have to increase tuitions to compete
