Washington freshman golfer Cheng-Tsung Pan is "a man among boys"

Originally published May 26, 2012 at 5:22 PM | Page modified May 26, 2012 at 6:13 PM

For a phenom, Cheng-Tsung Pan is pretty normal. He stands 5 feet 6 and weights 152 pounds. He uses his library voice at all times. And he has this terrible habit of making his extraordinary feats sound like something any novice golfer could do.

Pan plays golf with the precision of a surgeon, the focus of a philosopher ? and the bravado of a sheepish boy asking out a girl for the first time. Someone ought to tell him that he is, as actor Will Ferrell's Ron Burgundy character would say, kind of a big deal. But the Washington freshman is too consumed with getting the most out of his enormous talent.

"I need to improve," Pan says, almost in desperation.

It's an ideal attitude for any athlete, but the mentality is especially heartening coming from Pan, who is one of the greatest recruits in any sport ever to step foot on campus. Pan came to Washington as a nationally ranked amateur golfer. In 2007, at age 15, he was the youngest amateur since Bobby Jones in 1920 to reach the quarterfinals of the U.S. Amateur. In 2009, he was the youngest stroke-play medalist ever in the Western Amateur, and he repeated the feat the next year.

The Taiwan native, who left home five years ago to come to the United States and go to school at the Leadbetter Golf Academy in Bradenton, Fla., has followed with a quality first season with the Huskies. He is currently ranked 14th in the World Golf Amateur Rankings. Junior Chris Williams, who is ranked No. 4, leads the Huskies, and the two golfers are a potent combination that makes the eighth-ranked Huskies legitimate contenders at the NCAA men's golf championship, which will be held Tuesday through Sunday at The Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Calif.

Washington coach Matt Thurmond doesn't have his deepest team, but he's bringing five "steady, consistent and quietly tough" golfers to the championship. If the Huskies can survive 54 holes of stroke play and stay alive when the field is whittled down from 30 teams to eight, then the national champion is decided by match play. And at the top, the Huskies have Williams and Pan, who are "two guys I know at any time can beat anybody," Thurmond says.

The coach can be certain that Pan, despite being a freshman on a big stage, will play his game. That's where his greatness lies. He's not flashy. He doesn't wow you with long drives. But he has a seasoned game. His accuracy off the tee is remarkable. His wedge play is impeccable. And he doesn't beat himself.

"From a maturity standpoint, he is a man among boys," Thurmond says of Pan. "He is like a 35-year-old Tour player when it comes to preparation and focus and not making mental mistakes."

Pan, 20, says he has improved his putting and learned to be a teammate at Washington. He came to the U.S. to develop and get an education, and though it's common for Taiwanese players to turn pro at an early age, he wants to be more than a golfer.

His journey has been difficult at times. Learning English was a challenge, but now he speaks and comprehends it well. But the hardest part of this transition came two years ago when Pan's father, Jung-Ho Pan, died of cancer.

Cheng-Tsung, the youngest of six siblings, decided not to return to Taiwan for the funeral. The family felt it was too risky.

"In Taiwan, if you are 18 years old, you need to show that you are in college," Pan says. "Otherwise, you must be a soldier for one year. It's just a government policy, I guess."

Pan still has trouble talking about missing the funeral.

"I just feel so bad," he says. "I look at it as my responsibility. When you fail to finish your responsibility, you don't feel good. I needed to be my dad's child and be there. But I wasn't. I had a harsh time."

His father was an elementary school math teacher, and his mother was a caddie at a local golf course. Pan became interested in the sport at age 5, and when he was 8, his father would take him to a golf course regularly. The distance from the entrance to the course was three miles, so Pan would get out of the car and run to the clubhouse. After the run, the boy would have breakfast with his dad and then practice for several hours.

During a windy afternoon at the Bandon Dunes Championship in Oregon in March, Pan told Thurmond that he had played in a typhoon while growing up. When Thurmond asked for more information, he learned that it was another method Pan's father used to make him a tougher golfer.

"It's intimidating when you get a guy already this good," Thurmond says. "You want him to improve, but you don't want to screw him up."

Pan is thriving at Washington. He loves the coaching, the competition and camaraderie on the team and even the Seattle weather.

"I like the fact that the school is in the city, that it's part of something bigger," Pan says. "I don't like college towns."

Pan has three more years to explore the city. And win championships. And add to his already stunning list of accomplishments.

It's what his father wanted for him.

"I think he's still watching me now," Pan says.

No wonder he plays with such purpose.

Canada Grilled by the UN Committee Against Torture

Alex Neve. Published on May 23, 2012

A central aspect of committing to the crucial treaties that make up the world?s vital international human rights framework is the agreement of states that their record of compliance and implementation with UN treaties will be reviewed periodically by expert and independent United Nations committees.?Canada has signed on to seven of the main UN treaties, which means that those valuable review sessions come around fairly regularly.?This month it has been the turn of the UN Committee against Torture, which last took a look at Canada?s record with respect to torture prevention back in 2005.

The review is a three day process, with time slots juggled with sessions dealing with other matters on the Committee?s agenda over that same time period. It begins with an opportunity for members of the Committee to meet with interested civil society groups, such as Amnesty International, and explore and hear directly about areas of concern.?Then there is a back and forth of presentations, questions and responses between the Committee and an official government delegation, spread over two days, during which time a wide range of issues are discussed.?That has wrapped up, and I was there throughout.?We now await the final report from the Committee ? known as ?Concluding Observations? ? which constitute a set of important UN recommendations that Canada is certainly expected to take up.

No one is suggesting that there is widespread torture taking place within Canada.?There are, of course, some areas of concern on that front ? particularly with regard to unjustified or excessive police force used in response to Indigenous land and resource occupations and protests, or other mass demonstrations such as the events that played out on the streets and detention centres of Toronto during the 2010 G20 protests, or more recently in relation to the student protests in Quebec.? Excessive force ?in those circumstances may be tantamount to torture or, at least, ill-treatment (both of which are banned under international law).?The ways in which Taser guns have been used on occasion in Canada also give rise to concerns about possible torture or ill-treatment.

What is widespread, however, is the concern that Canada is ? in a multitude of ways ? complicit in torture committed by others: be that torture abroad or the failure to take adequate steps to ensure that Indigenous women are protected from the alarming levels of violence they have experienced for decades here in Canada.?Also of concern is the fact that Canada comes up short in taking the required steps to ensure that foreign torturers face justice, a key plank in the global torture-prevention agenda.

It was clear, even before arriving in Geneva for this review, but underscored by participating in and listening to the exchanges, that concerns about complicity in torture abroad so very often arise in relation to Canada?s national security laws, policies and practices.?Consider the following list of troubling issues, all of which were raised ? sometimes repeatedly ? by the Committee.

There is the fact that Canadian law (both in legislation and a 2002 Supreme Court of Canada ruling) maintains that in exceptional circumstances it is okay to deport an individual to a country where there is a serious risk that he or she will be tortured.? Most often this arises in cases where Canadian officials assert that the person concerned poses a threat to national security or public safety.? But it blatantly contravenes Canada?s obligation under the Convention against Torture ? sending someone off to a substantial risk of torture is never allowed, no matter the circumstances.

Canadian officials tried to convince the Committee that this is just a theoretical possibility, and that no one has ever been sent away from Canada facing a serious risk of torture. But the Committee was having none of that.?First, there are unfortunately a growing number of cases where it does appear that individuals deported from Canada, who argued against deportation because of concerns about torture, have in fact been tortured upon return to their countries.? In one case, the Committee had even asked Canada to hold off on the deportation to give them time to examine it more closely.?Canada refused to do so and the man was tortured in India after he was deported.?Furthermore, government lawyers spend a lot of time in court, such as in the immigration security certificate cases, forcefully arguing for deportations to go ahead despite torture concerns ? an odd legal strategy for something that is just ?theoretical?.

Canada?s notorious immigration security certificate system was also certainly a heated topic for discussion.? Numerous Committee members highlighted concerns about the fact that individuals are denied access to the bulk of the information being used against them in certificate proceedings, making it very difficult to mount a defence.? The government insisted that the introduction of Special Advocates in 2008 has addressed those concerns.?They glossed over the fact, however, that once Special Advocates have been given access to ?secret? information in government files, they are barred from communicating with the person subject to a certificate (unless they obtain an exceptional judicial order allowing them to have contact), making it almost impossible to determine the best way to challenge the information they have seen.

Canada was asked about various individual cases, particularly that of Omar Khadr and the trio of cases that were the subject of former Supreme Court of Canada Justice Frank Iacobucci?s 2008 inquiry report, Abdullah Almalki, Ahmad Abou-Elmaati and Muayyed Nureddin.? For the most part delegates tried to duck those questions, relying on the fact that those cases are currently before the courts.? What they failed to point out is that they are before the courts because the government has consistently and defiantly, for years, refused to provide redress or ensure accountability for the overseas human rights violations, including torture and ill-treatment, that all of those men have experienced, in Afghanistan, Guant?namo Bay, Syria and Egypt.?There are authoritative findings of Canadian complicity in what happened to them: in Omar Khadr?s case we see it in two Supreme Court of Canada rulings; for the other three men it is catalogued in the pages of Commissioner Iacobucci?s thorough report.?The complicity is clear.?But still, there is no redress on offer.

In total distinction to how those cases have been handled, the government was rightly commended for having?provided an official apology and compensation to Maher Arar for Canada?s role in his unlawful detention, torture and other human rights violations in the United States, Jordan and Syria.? There was concern, however, about the fact that almost six years after the Arar Inquiry wrapped up, Commissioner Dennis O?Connor?s detailed proposal for a comprehensive new model for reviewing the activities of Canadian agencies involved in national security has gone nowhere.

There also was much discussion about the Ministerial Direction to CSIS regarding intelligence information and torture that recently came to public attention through an Access to Information Request.?That Direction establishes that in exceptional circumstances involving threats to public safety, CSIS agents are free to make use of intelligence information that may have been derived through torture abroad and also that they should go ahead and share intelligence information with foreign agencies even if doing so is very likely to result in torture.? The delegation highlighted the provisions in the Ministerial Direction that very broadly require CSIS to act in compliance with Canada?s international obligations; but did not explain to the Committee how allowing intelligence information to be used in these ways complies with Canada?s unconditional obligations to prevent and punish torture under the Convention.

The Committee?s Concluding Observations should be available by the beginning of June.? But then will come the hard work of encouraging Canada to comply with what has been suggested; not Canada?s strong suit when it comes to international human rights obligations.?For instance, the Committee has twice before called on Canada to amend legislation to ensure that no one, in any circumstances, will ever be deported in the face of a substantial risk of torture.? Those previous recommendations, from 2000 and 2005, have been utterly disregarded.

PLEASE SHARE THIS ARTICLE:

One step at a time.?First we await final word from the Committee.?In addition to the national security front, concerns have been raised about violence against Indigenous women, refugee protection, the use of Tasers, corrections facilities policies with respect to such practices as segregation, justice and redress for survivors of torture, policing of Indigenous and other protests and much more.?There was also discussion about the fact that six years after Canada made a UN pledge to ?consider? signing on to an important torture prevention treaty, the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture ? a pledge that was repeated in 2009 ? there appears to have been very little progress towards that goal.

When we have the Committee?s report, then we must all make it clear to federal, provincial and territorial governments across Canada, that this time we expect full compliance.? Canada?s longstanding commitment to a strong international human rights system merits nothing less.

business process management - the tempo of innovation

Innovation. Collaboration. Mobility. Cloud. These are the hallmarks of next-generation business process solutions ? and the Business Process Management (BPM) software that will enable them. It is no longer sufficient to drive benefits at the edges; BPM tools must drive fundamental change and growth across the organization. Select involvement in process improvement will not radically transform a business; all employees at all levels (both on-site and in the field) must ?be part of the process? in active collaboration. Finally, the cost and scalability benefits of BPM SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) must be fully realized.

In short, Business Process Management software must leverage the latest advances in social technologies and application delivery to increase an organization?s tempo in responding to change and growing the business.

BPM software today does some things very well. It automates repetitive processes to improve through-put and capacity. It increases efficiencies by reducing process hand-offs and policing the execution of those that remain. It improves quality by increasing process consistency and reducing errors. Most significantly, it gives visibility into what once were opaque functions, creating more agile organizations that can identify and correct problems more quickly, and rapidly adjust to changing customer, competitor and market requirements.

These sorts of benefits are valuable, but they only scratch the surface of BPM software?s potential.

The hurdles to the new frontier of BPM software tools are rooted in the notion of participation. The more people across an organization (and its value chain) that can ?be part of the process? - the better. Unfortunately, the deployment of a BPM-based process application today tends to exclude all but a pre-determined set of process participants at the line-of-business and mid-management level. This is because BPM software systems require technical training and behavioral change that can be hard to accomplish outside of a relatively narrow focus group.

Imagine the possibilities if, instead, executive management had a simpler way to engage with the process-based information that would allow them to make better, faster decisions in guiding the organization. Imagine the time and money saved if suppliers, distributors and field staff were truly linked, in real-time and on the mobile devices they already carry, to corporate processes and data. Imagine the delight (and future revenue potential) of customers who feel deeply-connected to a particular company because all interactions and issues are handled in a quick, effective and transparent way.

But the reality is that from a participation stand-point, we?re not there yet. As a rough estimate, there are probably fewer than 50 million users of BPM systems around the world today. By contrast, in 2009 there were 336 million users of business email, and that number is expected to grow to 456 million by 2013. (The Radicati Group, ?Email Statistics Report, 2009-2013,? May 2009 ) Social media technologies like Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, while much younger than BPM, have already surpassed it in use, with an increasing amount of that use being business-related.

So if BPM software is so good at making people?s jobs easier (guiding them through tasks, reminding them of deadlines, providing real-time information), why do Knowledge Workers, by such an overwhelming majority, prefer email and Social Networks for managing their daily tasks and human interactions?

The answer comes down to six core tenets of those more-pervasive technologies:

Simplicity: Anyone can figure out how to use email or participate in a Social Network. BPM software technologies require training.

Instant Availability: There?s no up-front preparation needed to begin, and no time-intensive implementation required. The BPM process starts with potentially long phases of process discovery before implementation even begins.

Universal Access: Users can reach their email and Social Networks from literally anywhere with an internet connection. For the vast majority of BPM software suites, this is not the case.

Flexibility: These technologies are not limited in scope to pre-defined sets of users, structured activities or pre-determined events. Traditional business process management works for structured processes and established process participants only.

Collaboration: Email and Social Networks enable personal interaction for discussions, brainstorming and problem solving. BPM software tools are improving on this score, but still have a way to go in usability and features.

Mobility: An extension of Universal Access, making these technologies available on the mobile device of the user?s choosing.

The good news is that Business Process Management software can achieve these same qualities, and bring the benefits of email and Social Networks into its fold. The really exciting news is that in doing so, BPM software can greatly extend those benefits for organizations. By adding business context and increasing the manageability of information and interactions, Mobile BPM tools can far-exceed email and stand-alone social technologies in creating more meaningful, effective and valuable collaboration. By being as easy to use as email, BPM software can bring everyone (from executives to line-of-business to customers) into process. Through native support for popular mobile devices, BPM can further extend process participation. By fully-embracing the cloud computing or SaaS model for delivery of the entire BPM suite and its resulting applications, BPM can deliver its benefits more quickly, with no up-front cost. By tapping into social media, Social BPM can bring previously unavailable information from sites like Facebook and Twitter into corporate processes in a controlled and actionable way, yielding new insights into customer sentiment, sales opportunities, support issues and more. The sum total of this is the creation of a more agile enterprise.

According to analysts at the research firm Gartner, ?Organizations that have agile processes match their operational process improvement efforts to the tempo of change in their internal and external environments.? (The Radicati Group, ?Email Statistics Report, 2009-2013,? May 2009) Matching that tempo requires BPM technology that incorporates the new horizon of social, collaborative, mobile and cloud-based technologies.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) ? President Barack Obama and his party are redoubling their fundraising efforts. They're doing it in the wake of robust hauls by Republican rival Mitt Romney and a slew of GOP-leaning super PACs that are raking in cash from party faithful who are highly motivated to topple the Democrat.

Obama still has a significant edge, but it's shrinking rapidly.

That explains why the president is plunging back into fundraising on Wednesday with a series of events in Denver and California's Silicon Valley. He's looking to stockpile cash to pay for his coast-to-coast organization, advertising to promote his message and get-out-the-vote operations in key states.
