Businessman Pleads Guilty in Fraud Scheme

PITTSBURGH—A Pittsburgh-area businessman has pleaded guilty in federal court to charges of conspiracy, bribery of agent of an organization receiving federal funds, and mail fraud, United States Attorney David J. Hickton announced today. Arthur J. Bedway, Jr., 63, pleaded guilty to three counts before United States District Judge Cathy Bissoon. In connection with the guilty plea, the court was advised that Bedway owned Victory Security. In order to obtain a contract with the city of Pittsburgh to install radios and mobile data terminals (MDTs) in city police cars, Bedway created Alpha Outfitters, which he falsely represented to the city as a Women's Business Enterprise (WBE). He conspired with a city employee, Christine Ann Kebr, and others to obtain the MDT contract for Alpha Outfitters. Bedway paid Kebr for her assistance in obtaining the MDT contract. Judge Bissoon scheduled sentencing for November 20, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. The law provides for a total sentence of 35 years in prison, a fine of $750,000, or both. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the actual sentence imposed is based upon the seriousness of the offenses and the criminal history, if any, of the defendant. Pending sentencing, the court continued bond. Assistant United States Attorneys Robert S. Cessar and Lee J. Karl are prosecuting this case on behalf of the government. The Federal Bureau of Investigation and Internal Revenue Service-Criminal Investigation conducted the investigation that led to the prosecution of Bedway.

Link roundup for July 2013

The NIH has been giving workshops on poster presentations. Here is the latest one from earlier this summer (embed link doesn’t allow graceful resizing to fit in blog column, alas).That the presentation started with standard bullet point slides did not fill me with hope. And this is reflected in one of the pieces of advice that I am not sure I disagree with: “Use bullet points if at all possible.” I still prefer paragraphs.The information within is generally quite good, however. Hat tip to Mike Pascoe for spotting these.PVP illustrates rule 34 of the Internet, regarding type:This post by Nina K. Simon isn’t about posters, but it is about conferences more generally. Organizers:try more workshops, hackathons, and the like.It is amazing to actually DO things with colleagues in professional development situations instead of just talking. In 2009, after we hosted the Creativity and Collaboration retreat, I wrote a post about ditching "conferences" for "camp" experiences. Four years later, my appetite for these kinds of experiences hasn't changed. It felt great to once again be working with people--brainstorming exhibit challenges, editing label text, even just messing around on the player piano together.External linksCreating and presenting a dynamic poster (2010): Event listing (with PDF of slides)Creating and presenting dynamic posters (2013): Event listing
