With the greenback weak and sentiment overwhelmingly negative, Peter Brandt notes the chart structure of the dollar index today is nearly identical to the 2008 lows. "Tell me something bearish about the dollar today that I do not already know," says Brandt.

Buy the dollar.
If you are being serious here, you are not looking at the charts. If the bull crap that is holding all the global markets together starts to fray, look out. If you think the safe trade is gold and silver/ oil /commodities then you really have learned nothing from just a few years back. When the margin calls start to go out,{and mutual funds start to raise cash, their cash is at all time lows}, you better be small or you are going to get whacked!
This is the endgame folks, anyone telling you otherwise is LYING to you. Prepare for the worst, if it doesn't come to pass, you are no worse for the wear. On the other hand.....

Tianamen Square. Note all the cameras? Each of those lampposts had five or six. There are at least 100 of thoses posts. Also, there were two coaches on the other side of that building, and they were bristling with surviellance equipment. I thought it prudent to not photograph them.
The Great Hall of the People.
The Forbidden City
The Great jumbotron of the People.
A breakfast kiosk. I thought it was a brillant idea.
I didn't eat a single bit of Western food while I was there.
Right across Tianamen square from the Forbidden city is the old market area. This shop has been selling cutlery since 1632. (It's seen a few rennovations in that time.) I have a few of their pieces. You may not borrow them.

text: Good evening, and happy Easter to all. I haven't builded any competitive team since 2009 so forgive me about "beginner" errors. This team is quite different from the mainstream, because of "baiting" concept that involves the use of under-used moves/objects to surprise the opponent, using a pokèmon with the role of the bait to damage/kill the opposite pokè surprisily. That got me to this: Jirachi @ Choice Scarf Trait: Serene Grace EVs: 144 HP / 252 Atk / 112 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Trick - Iron Head - U-turn - ThunderPunch Atipic lead, resists Azelf OHKOing him and goes again Magnezone in predict with U-Turn; Iron Head with Serene Grace has Flinch on 60% so is extremely dangerous. Scarf to switch immediately and eventually trick it. EVs spread quite standard. TPunch for bulky water except obviously Swampert, who is in fact erased by others. Heatran (M) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Flash Fire EVs: 252 SAtk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef) - Fire Blast - Earth Power - Explosion - Hidden Power [Electric] First sweeper of the list, everywhere known as devasting, scarfed trembles half tier, and in predict then is simply enjoyable to use. The set and the EVs spread is pretty standard though, except the hp electric being able to OHKOing adamant gyara (baiting). Scizor (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Technician EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Swords Dance - Bullet Punch - Quick Attack - Brick Break Besides than offering incredible sinergy with the first two, Scizor in prediction dances and already with the BPunch makes huge damage, until a brickbreak preferred to superpower because of the dance above, that makes the malus unnecessary, to finish then with Quick Attack to check Gyara, Starmie, Zapdos and other ones. Cresselia (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Levitate EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SAtk Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Reflect - Moonlight - Icy Wind - Psychic Even now I remember when I went years ago against too many Cresselias in battles, when she made me manifest all my disagreement towards Catholic Church. I just can't resist from insert her in the team now, even if not CMinder, with Moonlight resists too much (even with sand), where an Icy Wind has been inserted mostly against the dragons and because of the lack of her speed (who mentioned Dragonite?). Gyarados (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Intimidate EVs: 156 HP / 72 Atk / 96 Def / 184 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Dragon Dance - Waterfall - Stone Edge - Payback Only few are seen, but Bulky work, rather! I sacrifice the ridicolous offensive power of him to exploit in defence of pokè like Heatran and Scizor, who are in the team. Only Breloom annoys him, but for that the incinerator is ready... Same for Celebi, while Porygon2 is just never seen (and could be interesting to try...). Payback to 2HKOing Celebi, OHKOing in predict people like Rotom-W and Starmie. There isn't Taunt, (maybe) I'll miss it. Or not. Dragonite (M) @ Life Orb Trait: Inner Focus EVs: 56 Atk / 252 SAtk / 200 Spd Mild Nature (+SAtk, -Def) - Draco Meteor - Flamethrower - Superpower - Hidden Power [Grass] He is the playmaker on which I reflected about the other five. It's simply a Xavi of the football, a Rondo of the basket, a league top player. He resists quite everything, being always on the ground many rounds, and is extraordinarily sinergic with the other elements of the team: he's attracted by Ground moves to Heatran, and he lures Skarmory, Forretress and other Steels who are incinerated by the same Tran; Scizor with his U-Turn discovers the opposite team and, for our playmaker, it's just done. PS: Don't attack me, I have to say it's been a long time since i made my last battle (2009). PPS: Sorry for my english, I'm Italian and here your language isn't studied at all (or,at least, it's studied at school, but in an awful way...).

Hey anointed,
I had the same problem,
I rooted around in bbPress-Quotes and found the offending code and changed it to make it work. If I can contact the author I can show him the fix:
To Fix you need to:
In bbpress-quotes.php:
on Line 86 : Change
wp_register_script('bbpress_quotes_js', ($plugin_url . '/bbpress-quotes.js'), false, '1.0');
wp_register_script('bbpress_quotes_js', ($plugin_url . '/bbpress-quotes.js'), 'jquery', '1.0');
In bbpress-quotes.js
change the where the variable theQuote is initialised to this :
var theQuote = "div#post-"+commentID + " .bbp-reply-content";
Then change this line :
var posttext = document.getElementById(theQuote).innerHTML;
To be this :
var posttext = $(theQuote).html();
Then also add these lines:
// remove reply revision info
var posttext = posttext.replace(/
((.|\n)*?)(<\/ul>)/igm, "");
Below :
//var posttext = posttext.replace(/((.|\n)*?)(<\/a>)/ig, "");
Those are the changes I made and it's now working again.
Sorry I cannot be more precise with line numbers in the js file, I've moved lines around a bit working this out.
Also keep in mind if the author releases a new version it will overwrite these changes!
Not sure what I am missing as I made the changes and it even makes sense. Still getting the error.
Could you throw this up on git as the author seems to be not available?
same, getting the same error despite the changes
Try this:
Just open the bbpress-quotes.js file and in the Quote function
Add this after try statement starts:
var editor_html = document.getElementById('bbp_reply_content-html');
and this before functions return is called:
var editor_tmce = document.getElementById('bbp_reply_content-tmce');
Working awesome for me.
Arun Singh, do you mind showing us what line that code should go on? Javascript is not something I'm very familiar with.
Hi avaroth,
In the bbpress-quotes.js file replace the quote function with the following edited version :
[Code moderated as per the Forum Rules. The maximum number of lines of code that you can post in these forums is ten lines. Please use the pastebin]
avaroth see the code here http://pastebin.com/qnbwsLWU
None of these solutions offered is working for me on WP 3.4.2

County may seek permission to impose meals tax
Henrico County officials plan to petition the General Assembly in the coming months for the right to institute a meals tax in the county next year.
County Manager Virgil Hazelett suggested the idea to the five-member Board of Supervisors during a work session tonight, and it met with the board's unanimous support.
Hazelett, who is retiring in January, told supervisors that the county must find new sources of revenue to combat falling revenue from both real estate taxes and the state government.
"We lost $96 million in Fiscal Year 2011," he said. "I think it's time that we try to do this, for the future of Henrico County."
Implementation of a 4-percent meals tax would generate an estimated $18 million annually for the county, Hazelett told the board.
"As the economy improves, it will only increase," he said, while noting that about 40 percent of all meals purchased in the county are bought by non-Henrico residents.
State law permits the governing bodies of any Virginia city or town to enact a meals tax by a unanimous vote, but counties are required to put the issue to voters in a referendum. Henrico did so in 2005, but its proposed 4-percent meals tax was defeated by just 151 votes.
Hazelett's proposal to the General Assembly would require that implementation of such a tax be approved by a unanimous vote of the Board of Supervisors, to mirror the existing requirement of cities and towns.
There are 204 localities – including 45 counties – in Virginia that have a meals tax, Henrico's director of management and budget Brandon Hinton told the board. Five of those counties were granted the right by the General Assembly to impose such a tax, while voters in the other 40 approved the measure.
Richmond collects a 6-percent meals tax on all prepared meals purchased in the city.
Hazelett conceded that such a plan would not come without some controversy but suggested that the timing was right to make the attempt. Henrico and Arlington counties are the only two in Virginia that maintain their own roads, and Arlington has a meals tax.
"We are the only locality that maintains its own road system and lacks the ability to impose this tax," Hazelett told the board. "You are going to have difficult with this budget. You need to consider this – the General Assembly needs to consider this."
The board is expected to present the request to Henrico's General Assembly delegation at a Nov. 7 dinner.

Frontier Community Health Integration Program (FCHIP)
The Need for an Integrated Model in Frontier
Frontier areas are sparsely populated rural areas that are isolated from population centers and services and therefore face challenges in providing access to health services. Many frontier counties lack a hospital and frontier counties without healthcare professionals or hospitals are often clustered together which compounds the distance residents must travel to reach a hospital. Those frontier counties that do have hospitals may face higher costs than non-frontier hospitals, due to the lower volume of patients served. Because of these challenges, there is a need for integrating frontier systems of care in order to increase efficiencies and better coordinate patient care.
Program Purpose
The purpose of the demonstration is to develop and test new models for the delivery of healthcare services in frontier areas through improving access to, and better integration of, the delivery of healthcare to Medicare beneficiaries. The primary focus areas of the demonstration are to:
- explore ways to increase access to, and improve the adequacy of, payments for acute care, extended care, and other essential healthcare services provided under the Medicare and Medicaid programs in frontier areas; and
- evaluate regulatory challenges facing frontier providers and the communities they serve
Legislation Authorizing the FCHIP Demonstration
The Frontier Community Health Integration Program (FCHIP) demonstration is authorized under Section 123 of P.L. 110-275, the Medicare Improvements to Patients and Provider's Act of 2008 (MIPPA).
FCHIP Demonstration
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) requested applications to participate in the Frontier Community Health Integration Project Demonstration in early 2014, with applications due May 5, 2014. Details about the demonstration are listed in the FCHIP Request For Information, and an overview of this opportunity is available on RHIhub.
Eligibility to participate in the demonstration project was defined in the authorizing legislation and limited to "eligible entities". CMS interprets the eligible entity definition as meaning critical access hospitals (CAHs) that receive funding through the Rural Hospital Flexibility Program. The statute limited the demonstration to no more than four States and restricted eligibility to CAHs in States in which at least 65 percent of the counties had 6 or fewer residents per square mile. Applications to participate in the demonstration were limited to CAHs in Alaska, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, and Wyoming, and CMS will select participants from no more than four of these States.
For the most current information, please see information from CMS on the Frontier Community Health Integration Project Demonstration.
In fiscal year 2010, Congress appropriated funds to the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP) for the FCHIP demonstration. FORHP funded an 18-month cooperative agreement award to the Montana Health Research & Education Foundation (MHREF) to provide information and data to CMS as they develop this demonstration. In order to identify and communicate the challenges and solutions MHREF hoped to convey to CMS, a Framework Document and subsequent topical white papers were prepared.
FORHP also provided funding to the Rural Medicare Flexibility programs in North Dakota, Alaska and Wyoming to respond to the framework document and white papers produced by MHREF and provide CMS any additional regulatory proposals not addressed in the original framework or whitepapers.

A population dynamic model of Batesian mimicry, in which populations of both model and mimetic species were considered, was analyzed. The probability of a predator catching prey on each encouter was assumed to depend on the frequency of the mimic. The change in population size of each species was considered to have two components, growth at the intrinsic growth rate and carrying capacity, and reduction by predation. For simplicity in the analyses, three assumptions were made concerning the carrying capacities of each population: (1) with no density effects on the mimic population growth rate; (2) with no density effects on the model species; and (3) with density effects on both species. The first and second cases were solved analytically, whereas the last was, for the most part, investigated numerically. Under assumption (1), two stable equilibria are possible, in which both species either coexist or go to extinction. Under assumption (2), there are also two stable equilibria possible, in which either only the mimic persists or both go to extinction. These results explain the field records of butterflies (Pachliopta aristolochiae and its mimicPapilio polytes) in the Ryukyu Islands, Japan.

Feeling relaxed and well rested before sex can help get you in the mood and lead to a better experience for both partners. Find ways to relax and get into the mood before having sex. Or use these ideas to relax together when you want to be close but sex isn't possible.
- Unwind in a warm bath or shower -- alone or with your partner. Warm water helps soothe achy joints and can help you feel good.
- Light candles, play soft music, or try aromatherapy.
- Read from a favorite book together.
- Turn down the lights in the bedroom and turn up the heat.
- Take turns giving one another a gentle massage.
3. Be Creative in Your Intimacy
Learn to explore different ways of being intimate with your partner. "Have fun with sex and explore new ways to be intimate in a loving, pleasurable way," says Helen Grusd, PhD, a clinical psychologist in Los Angeles and past president of the Los Angeles County Psychological Association. "Each couple is different, so it's important to try different things and learn together what works for you."
If sexual intercourse is painful, focus on foreplay and touching instead. Even if you are able to have intercourse, it's important to find other ways to be close. "Try new ways of touching and make time for the different sensations that arise," says Grusd. "Intimate, close touch can be one of the most important ways to connect as a couple. It doesn't even have to be sexual."
If lubrication is a problem, try using a water-based lubricant during sex. You can also experiment with different sexual positions to find which are most comfortable. Or use pillows or other supports as needed to help take pressure off painful joints. Don't be afraid to explore new territory and find what works best for you.
"In my case, certain positions didn't work because they made me feel dizzy," says Brown. "So we just experimented until we found other positions that worked better."

The Monks of New Skete are the denizens of an Orthodox Christian community located in Cambridge, New York, between Albany and Vermont. Their new book, In the Spirit of Happiness, is a glimpse inside their community and an invitation to consider aspects of life -- including our relationships with God and with other people, our work, the various forms of love, and prayer -- from a monastic perspective. Just as they regularly welcome visitors into the sanctuary of their community for spiritual discourse and guidance in a quiet and meditative atmosphere, the Monks offer readers a similar respite with In the Spirit of Happiness.
While the word "monk" may initially conjure medieval visions of solemn scribes in identical drab robes toiling at illuminating manuscripts and chanting in Latin, or perhaps Sean Connery and Christian Slater prowling around chubby Franciscan brothers with those odd hairdos, the Monks of New Skete offer counsel and guidance that is surprisingly relevant, worldly, and not at all arcane.
Still, the prospect of emulating monks -- who have chosen to dedicate their lives to God and at least seem to live within rigid guidelines of comportment -- may at first seem intimidating and somewhat scary. But In the Spirit of Happiness demonstrates that monks are human, embodying the same frailties and wicked impulses as the rest of us.
Furthermore, although they do adhere to many traditional monastic practices, including waking very early in the morning, participating in frequent daily prayer and meditation sessions, and celibacy, the Monks of New Skete are not exactly cloistered anomalies. They maintain contact with the outside world though frequent visitors and retreatants, and they interact regularly with the local community. A small congregation of lay people attends weekly services on their premises.
The community supports itself by raising purebred German Shepherd dogs and boarding and training dogs of all breeds. They are the authors of two books on this subject, How to Be Your Dog's Best Friend and The Art of Raising a Puppy. These books put forth a holistic approach to raising dogs, viewing the relationship between human and beast as one from which both can learn a great deal and from which the human owner can gather significant self-knowledge.
The topic of In the Spirit of Happiness is somewhat more expansive than those covered in their previous books but follows a parallel vein. The Monks show that the path to happiness is not an easy one. Just as in training dogs, discipline, humility, and attention to the details of the world and to our fellow travelers in it are essential to attaining happiness.
In the Spirit of Happiness may be of special interest to readers who strive to live closer to God but find a frustrating disjunction between their spiritual aspirations and the bustle and babble of family and work life. Perhaps it's punctuated by once-weekly church attendance, where, despite the best intentions, it's often difficult to keep the mind wandering away from God and toward desiring to clock one's fellow man in the row ahead on the back of the neck so he'll continue that annoying rasping cough outside.
Monks are human. The Monks of New Skete don't provide a simple solution to the quandary of the coughing fellow parishioner, and they don't (as one might hope) suggest one should stop attending church because it doesn't seem to be doing one any good. Quite to the contrary, they aver, "Cultivating a communal sense of ritual celebration is the very basis of civilization and the origin of culture." But it is comforting to know that monks, like lay people, sometimes get the urge to whack a brother on the back of the neck for something as simple and human as coughing during a service. Their response is one anyone can emulate, with a little effort: Discipline your mind, and focus on loving God and your fellow worshippers. Evoke the words of Saint Paul: "Be happy always. Pray without ceasing. Be grateful in all circumstances, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus."
That's deceptively simple counsel. While they assert that learning about oneself is an essential component of growing closer to God and becoming happy, for the Monks of New Skete to pray without ceasing is not to turn inward, not to tune out all distractions and blather a mantra over and over. This errant path leads to self-indulgence and neglect of those around us and the loss of a sense of place within God's creation. Distractions such as work, family, and our own stumblings are opportunities for growth and opportunities for which to be thankful.
For instance, the Monks show that in the humblest and most degrading tasks, there lies a unique chance for growth and insight into who, at base, we are. Work can be, in fact, a form of prayer. As one example, they cite one of their own, Brother James, who during his early days at New Skete found the task of cleaning the boarding kennel repugnant. Rather than rebelling against his lot, or grimly gritting his teeth and getting it done as quickly as possible, he chose to treat the chore as a means of confronting his self-centeredness, anger, and lack of generosity. In this way, cleaning the kennels became a tool for meditation. Eventually, instead of resenting the barking dogs as he did initially, he came to hear their howls as a reminder of his own desire for freedom. He began to look forward to the opportunity for self-examination the once arduous work of cleaning afforded him.
As another example, the Monks recount the story of a middle-aged lawyer who came to their community on a retreat. He was frustrated by his job, which involved work on messy divorce cases that made him feel "in league with the devil." Yet quitting was not an option, as his five children depended on him for support, and he had to pay off the mortgage on his house. The monks do not provide an easy answer to his dilemma, but they do put it in an existential perspective:
He failed to perceive that he was the one who let his work tyrannize him, that he was the one who failed to integrate his legal work and his spiritual practice.... He alone made the decision to use unethical means, and if he really considered the matter, ultimately this didn't serve either his clients or himself.
The Monks do not pull punches, and they do not imply that the spiritual journey they espouse is an easy one. Rather, its inherent difficulties are what make the journey worthwhile.
The Monks present another compelling means of attaining a more fulfilling life and relationship to God in their explanation of the practice of lectito divina, or sacred reading. This is a variety of meditation that takes the form of reading the Psalms and other Holy Scriptures. In principle, lectito divina is simple and can be practiced by anyone who can read and apply some discipline, and at the same time an open heart (in the sense of "heart" as the core of human emotion, appetite, and intelligence), to digesting short passages of scripture. The monks show how, practiced daily, this simple technique can lead to wisdom and insight.
The Monks write in a refreshing, lucid, and down-to-earth prose style. They are less apt to provide dogmatic sermons than dialogues and careful examinations of specific spiritual quandaries and quests. A large portion of the text, in fact, takes the form of reconstructions of actual conversations between the Monks and retreatants and other lay people who have spent time in their community, as well as instructive anecdotes from the lives of the Monks themselves that shed light on their own ongoing quests for self-knowledge and closeness to God.
A thread interwoven throughout the text, and set out in italicized sections, is the narration of the spiritual journey of the Seeker, whom readers first encounter when he comes to New Skete after an exchange of letters with the spiritual head of the community, Father Laurence. The Seeker eventually becomes a Monk of New Skete himself, and his story encapsulates the monastic journey.
The Seeker's narrative of ever increasing self-knowledge and closeness to God provides insights into monastic life and shows how its guiding principles can be applied to spiritual lay people who aspire to a similar path outside of a monastic community.

In the first paper1 of this series, the important question of peristolic function was summarily mentioned. In view of the significant and successful practical application made possible by the definite acceptance of this function as a basis for reasoning, I wish to devote this paper to a more detailed explanation of our procedure and the results obtained.
We became aware of the existence of the peristolic reflex in the course of our roentgenographic work on the gastric functions in infants. As our study progressed, and our observations increased in number, we were able to establish with absolute certainty the existence of a so-called "peristolic function" of the stomach, entirely different from and not to be confused with the more familiar peristaltic function.
It is perhaps best at this point to define terms. Peristalsis may be described as a circular wave of contraction, appearing at regular intervals, which begins at

Thailand Will Prevent Excessive Baht Volatility, Abhisit Says
Thailand will prevent any excessive volatility of its currency without moving against the market trend, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said.
"We have learnt an expensive lesson before," Abhisit told reporters in Bangkok today, without elaborating. "All Asian countries have the same problem with strengthening currencies."
Thailand's currency climbed to 31.31 a dollar earlier today, the strongest level in more than two years, after the central bank raised borrowing costs for a second month this week. The Bank of Thailand said Aug. 25 interest rates are "on an uptrend" and that it's "not concerned" that higher rates will attract capital inflows and pressure the baht to rise.
The government's economic advisory body earlier this week urged the central bank to "be careful to make sure monetary policy won't affect rising investment," saying higher interest-rates may attract capital inflows, strengthen the baht and hurt export competitiveness. Commerce Minister Porntiva Nakasai said last week the Thai baht's strength is a "risk" to the country's overseas sales, and the central bank should "take care" of the currency.
The central bank should manage the currency as well as inflation, Abhisit said today. "I think the central bank will be careful in raising the interest rate."
The Bank of Thailand raised its benchmark rate by a quarter of a percentage point to 1.75 percent on Aug. 25. The rate will climb to 2 percent by the end of the year, according to the median forecast of 12 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News, with one predicting as much as 2.25 percent.
Exports Climb
The country's exports jumped 46 percent in June from a year earlier, the most in more than 18 years, before easing to a 20.6 percent pace last month in line with cooling global demand. Thailand is a manufacturing base for companies including Toyota City, Japan-based Toyota Motor Corp.
Finance Minister Korn Chatikavanij said in Singapore today the baht's strength will have a "marginal" impact on exports. Central bank Deputy Governor Bandid Nijathaworn said yesterday Thai companies can manage the current movements in the baht.
Southeast Asia's largest economy after Indonesia grew 9.1 percent in the second quarter as exports countered the impact of political clashes that killed at least 89 people. The central bank expects the economy to expand as much as 7.5 percent this year, which would be the strongest pace since 1995.
Growth Outlook
Economic growth will slow in the second half of 2010 in line with the cooling global economy, Abhisit said. Still, growth for the whole year may be more than 7 percent, he said. That's more than the finance ministry's June forecast of as much as 6 percent.
Bandid said yesterday "the reduction of monetary accommodation is necessary to make sure the economic recovery is sustained," as the rebound will lead to an acceleration in inflation. The growth momentum may continue in the second half of the year as export orders are still at a satisfactory level, he said.
Thailand's inflation accelerated in July, with consumer prices rising 3.4 percent from a year earlier after climbing 3.3 percent in June.
The central bank will be "cautious" in its monetary policy, and is "monitoring the U.S. economy," Bandid said. Growth in the world's biggest economy is expected to slow in the second half, which will affect the global recovery, he said.
Capital Flows
Risk aversion may spur more capital flows to Asia, and the region has seen "continued capital inflows" in the last two to three weeks, Bandid said. For Thailand, the funds went into both stocks and bonds, he said.
"Speculation happens from time to time," Abhisit said. "Sometimes on stocks and sometimes on the currency. The Bank of Thailand and the Securities & Exchange Commission have to take care of that. Still, it's not unusual yet even though capital flowed in a lot on some days."
The baht has climbed the most against the dollar among Asia's most-traded currencies this month as overseas investors bought $370.6 million more Thai shares than they sold through yesterday. Thai stocks are still among the cheapest in the region and are "under held" by foreign investors, Korn said.

2008 Does Hillary Have a "Gender Problem"?
posted by November 2 at 14:01 PMon
Not everybody agrees that Hillary Clinton has been, as Eli put it, "trying to push womens buttons, getting them to rally around Clinton out of a sense of shared victimhood."
Here's a different take from The Carpetbagger Report:
The meme of the hour is that Clinton played the gender card, but the evidence is pretty thin. A lot of people are pointing to this example from yesterday
Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton returned to her alma mater Tuesday, the all-womens Wellesley College in Massachusetts, as her campaign suggested this weeks debate could help her with women voters.
Clinton seemed to allude to sharp attacks from Democratic rivals in Tuesdays showdown, telling the enthusiastic crowd, in so many ways, this all womens college prepared me compete in the all boys club of presidential politics.
However, like Ezra, I dont see this as particularly troublesome. […]
Playing the victim takes a lot more than the mere mention of gender.
That said, while I think the media is blowing this way out of proportion probably desperate to find a new narrative to talk about part of me thinks this whole hullabaloo is Mark Penns fault. Hes the one who hosted a conference call to say that Obamas and Edwards criticisms were driving women voters to Hillary. Since Tuesday, thats probably the only legitimate instance of the campaign playing the gender card at all.
TCR's Steve Benen was referring to a post on the American Prospect's blog by Ezra Klein, who elaborates:
Clinton, speaking to her alma mater, said, "In so many ways, this all-women's college prepared me to compete in the all-boys club of presidential politics." That's the only invocation of gender since the debate. And to me, it sounds like nothing more interesting than alumni puffery. She didn't say the "boys" were beating up on her for being a woman. She didn't say the questions were unfair or the attacks sexist. She just said that her alma mater helped prepare her to enter this world. That's not making this about gender. It's mentioning gender, and pumping up her college.
And as far as calling the election an "all-boys club" goes, that seems unambiguously true. In a nation that's more than 50 percent female, where women made up 54 percent of the electorate in 2004, exactly one out of the 17 candidates currently vying for the presidency is female. But what we're upset about is that Hillary Clinton mentioned that fact? The men doth protest too much, methinks…

Wind turbine systems present several challenging issues for control engineers charged with the design of practical controllers. The dynamics of wind turbines are essentially non-linear because of the fundamental physics governing the aerodynamic forces that drive the turbine blades and provide the means of control of the rotor. Given the more advanced dynamic modeling capability now available, more advanced control system development is underway. Such advanced controllers, will offer the significant advantage of reduced operating loads while maintaining nearly optimal energy capture. This improved control performance is likely to allow progressively larger wind turbines to economically compete with other more conventional energy production technologies.

Guess Who: U.S.' First Famous Animal Advocate
Italy had Leonardo da Vinci, India had Mahatma Gandhi, England had William Wilberforce, and America had Mark Twain.
Courtesy of LOC; LC-USZ62-117717
Like these other luminaries, Twain was a committed advocate for the humane treatment of animals. In honor of his 176th birthday, we've selected one of his most powerful and impassioned statements to share. Of course, since it comes from Mark Twain, there's also a dose of humor thrown in:
I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable would not remove my hostility to it. The pains which it inflicts upon unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity towards it, and it is to me sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further. It is so distinctly a matter of feeling with me, and is so strong and so deeply-rooted in my make and constitution, that I am sure I could not even see a vivisector vivisected without anything more than a sort of qualified satisfaction.
To read more about Mark Twain's thoughts on animals in celebration of this early animal advocate's birthday, check out Mark Twain's Book of Animals.
Commenting is closed.
The Greeks had Pythagoras, who was a lacto-vegetarian.
Great article PETA, but a very important animal advocate is missing from the ones listed. Germany had the famous animal advocate Albert Einstein. He has great animal quotes as well.
i agree with you. but i want to draw your kind attention that in our country INDIA HAD advocated non violence since long. LORD RISHABHA DEV TO LORD MAHAVEER and others are the preachers of non violence. in our ancient literature s are full glory of nonviolence. i pay respect to Mark Twain for this honorable cause .
How profound! I never new that Mark Twain was an animal advocate.
