Time you enjoy wasting was not wasted - John Lennon
Everyone watching the Olympic trials tonight? Sad to see Roshni go, I thought there were worse on the Blue team.
Time you enjoy wasting was not wasted - John Lennon
I have to agree that there were worse on the team. I can't believe I'm still watching this trainwreck LOL
I can only please one person a day, today is not your day and tomorrow doesn't look good either
That totally sucked Roshni went... but as she even said, she kept out of the drama, a perfect reason for the producers to kick her butt to the curb.
Royce and Patrick really need to go. Really, Guy and Roshni should still be there and those two buffoons should be long gone.
It'd be nice if we could just cut this to the top players... for the women, Christina and Dana, and for the men, Brian and well, I'm not sure.
I'm watching, but I have to wonder if any of these folks have watched the show? Surely they have, than they just go all stupid when they get on camera. Was glad to see the women get it together and do teamwork vs the cattiness that was going on the last few weeks. I'm sure that will change though.
I always wonder what some of these contestants are thinking when they are behaving like such brats. There will only be one winner so the best the rest of them can hope for is that someone sees them on the show and recognizes whatever "talent" they have and possibly hires them to work in their restaurant. I can't think of too many of the current contestants that I would let near my home kitchen, much less a restaurant. They can't get along with their fellow workers, they are obnoxious, loud, and in some cases, (coughTiffanycough), unsanitary, and most of them can't handle the pressures that go hand in hand with cooking, or even cook very well for that matter. Why would anyone hire these idiots after seeing them on this show?
History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people. Martin Luther King, Jr.
This show has changed over the years... the first few seasons I saw some actual talent and I was rooting for people that seemed serious. The last few seasons the contestants swear as much as Ramsey, they seem to have no professional ethics or honor, and it's obvious they only want to be on TV. I think a lot of them are cooks, but none of them are chefs. Frankly, the only one I see this season with any shot at actually being a decent chef/leader is Patrick. This might be my last season, and that sorta bums me out 'cause it used to be a decent show!
I completely agree. How dare she agree to be on a reality show and not stir drama?! I too think she would have lasted had she thrown a couple temper tantrums. And why, WHY do tend continue to put up folks who did well during the service? I know they've seen at least a season of the show. Chef almost always scoffs when they exclude the people he yelled out during dinner service.

You're Not Friends with Darren Helm
Sorry to burst everyone's bubble, but there's been some chatter going around about The Namesake's facebook page...or what we thought was his facebook page. Some of you have already seen this e-mail sent out by a true personal friend of Helm's (not me, never met the guy). Here's the real story...
As a friend of Darren Helm I want to clarify that any "Darren Helm" that has added you on Facebook IS NOT the Detroit Red Wings Player.
Take note of this by questioning the legitimacy of "Darren Helm" on their wall---your comments will swiftly be deleted by the impostor(s).
The person(s) responsible for the account are being asked to close the page permanently; Facebook moderators have also been notified.
Darren genuinely appreciates any support of the Detroit Red Wings organization and thoroughly enjoys interacting with fans. While he prefers to keep his personal life separate from his professional one, Darren looks forward to meeting all of you at Red Wings fan events and games.
Thanks for your time.
The friend also said that he's seen NOHS, though he doesn't follow it, and he's pleased that I didn't include the famous "that's the sound of me being awesome" pic with him and his now ex-girlfriend.
I think I speak for everyone here when I say to that girl, you're cute, but you're stupid for not staying with the guy.

Democracy Now! has regularly covered the stories of those imprisoned at the U.S. detention facility located in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, since former President George W. Bush began the so-called "war on terror." The first captives arrived at the detention camp on January 11, 2002.

The US military has dropped all charges against five men held at Guantanamo Bay prison, but has no plans to release them. The news came just weeks after the resignation of Lt. Col.

Now, as a rough rule of thumb, we generally think of a month as having 30 days, on average, so someone who does a quickie mental calculation on April 20, might surmise that June 20 is 60 days hence. That's probably the mistake one of our ancestors made and no one has caught it until now?
Two months is 60 days only in leap years and only if one adds the 31 in January or March to the 29 in February. Otherwise, at no time does the number of days in adjacent months add up to 60.
June 20 is unarguably two months from the date of Lincoln's signing, but the proclamation does not say "two months." It is a binding legal document making permanent law, and it plainly says "sixty days."
As we have seen, 60 days, including the signing date, takes us to June 18.
Even if some legal-eagle sharpshooter tries to somehow stretch the interpretation to exclude the signing date (which Lincoln did not), we still can't reach June 20.
So Montani Semper Liberi! and happy belated June 18 Sesquicentennial, my fellow West Virginians! Melius tarde, quam nunquam. (Better late than never.) Shall we change the State Seal art, which shows June 20? The West Virginia Day holiday? Or get a new "birth certificate" from President Obama that "adjusts" the wording?

First-of-its-kind Shoney's Featuring Cooked-to-Order Entrees, Seasonal Buffets, Shoney's On The Go® and Full Liquor Service On Tap at Sugarloaf Mills; Grand Opening Scheduled for January 16th
LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga., Jan. 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Shoney's Chairman and CEO David Davoudpour always sees a bright future for Shoney's. He calls it a return to "Glory Days." And this Thursday (January 16) at Sugarloaf Mills in Lawrenceville, Georgia, the rest of the world will get a glimpse of his vision for the future.

The All-American iconic brand will celebrate the grand opening of its first-of-a-kind prototype, featuring traditional favorites like cooked-to-order entrees and seasonal buffets; in addition, the restaurant will offer full liquor service as well as Shoney's On The Go® - quick service dining option providing fresh, high quality Shoney's favorites within minutes.
"This has as much historic implication as the very first Shoney's in 1947," said Davoudpour. "The stories you hear about Shoney's aren't myths. This brand was the premier family casual dining concept in the world. And this opening represents another step towards returning Shoney's to its glory days."
At a ribbon-cutting ceremony and festivities at 4pm local time, he will unveil the new prototype, with the grand opening of the newest Shoney's at Sugarloaf Mills Mall, 5900 Sugarloaf Parkway in Lawrenceville, Georgia.
Shoney's grand opening event will be a celebration of the family favorite's first iteration at an inside-the-mall property. Guests can meet Davoudpour, take pictures with the restaurants' famous icon, Shoney Bear®, all while enjoying a FREE slice of Shoney's signature Hot Fudge Cake, limit one per guest, while supplies last. Pro wrestling icon Scott "Big Poppa Pump" Steiner and former NBA All-Star Ralph Sampson will also be at the ribbon cutting ceremony.
Since acquiring Shoney's in December 2006, Davoudpour has been on a driven and spirited mission to revitalize and reinvigorate Shoney's family-friendly, southern style restaurants, which was one of the premier family casual dining concepts in the United States.
"Every day at Shoney's folks can enjoy our fresh quality food at a great value with friendly service. Those are brand staples which will never disappear," added Davoudpour. "But there's more. We have developed a Shoney's with more choices that appeal to everyone. We are very excited to bring the Shoney's brand with some new never-before-seen features, all under one roof, to Sugarloaf Mills."
Shoney's new restaurant also will add over 70 full and part-time jobs to the local economy. The 3500 square foot restaurant will seat 107 guests.
About Shoney's
Shoney's is a Nashville-based company with more than 165 restaurants in 16 states. Since its humble beginnings in 1947 as a Charleston, West Virginia drive-in restaurant, guests have enjoyed Shoney's family-friendly, casual dining experience.

Course List
Sequence of Courses
Students should complete all other required SOA courses before (or concurrently with) taking the Senior Seminar. Each required course is offered once each year, on a regular rotation of day and evening classes (see below). We do this in an effort to make our major accessible to both full- and part-time students, including those who come to UIS as transfer students and those who begin their college education here.
The recommended sequence for all majors is to begin with the 300-level core courses, SOA 302 Understanding Cultures and SOA 302 Human Evolution. Each offers important instruction on essay-writing (SOA 304) or research papers (SOA 302) which will be helpful for other courses. The Inequality/Diversities requirement (SOA 231, SOA 301, or SOA 441) should also be taken early in the course sequence if at all possible, as these courses provide foundational perspectives on systems of social inequality that can be applied in later coursework.
Finally, SOA majors may take the 400-level core courses (SOA 405 Sociocultural Theories and SOA 411 Social Research Methods) in any order, usually in the junior or senior year. These should not be the first courses you take in SOA.
This sequence is flexible and can be adapted to each student's particular scheduling needs. Students should work closely with their advisors to develop a plan for completing their degrees.
When Courses Are Offered:
Course Fall in Even-Numbered Years Fall in Odd-Numbered YearsSOA 302 Daytime Evenings
SOA 405 Evenings Daytime
Course Spring in Even-Numbered Years Spring in Odd-Numbered Years
SOA 304 Evenings Daytime
SOA 410 Evenings Evenings
SOA 411 Daytime Evenings
Inequalities/Diversity courses: At least one course fulfilling this requirement is offered each semester– choose from SOA 231, SOA 301, or SOA 441.

The Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape has allocated $2,500 to each of the commonwealth's rape crisis centers - including the YWCA Northcentral PA's Wise Options program. The total distribution is $125,000 statewide.
The largest portion, $79,000, came from the sale of more than 7,000 official Blue Out T-shirts. The shirt, designed by graduate students Laura March and Stuart Shapiro, was worn by those attending the second Penn State "Blue Out" game against Temple University in September. The students also collaborated with the student organization, One Heart, to collect donations prior to the game.
Susan Mathias, co-director of Wise Options, said, "Since the Sandusky case broke last year, Wise Options is finding more opportunities to provide prevention education. April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month and this year's focus will be on preventing child sexual abuse in Lycoming County. We are honored the Penn State students selected PCAR as their vehicle to support community-based prevention. Any funds that we receive for sexual abuse prevention education is greatly appreciated."

New hint of gallery for Chrome themes emerges
It looks like Google is nearing release for a gallery showcasing themes to customize Chrome's appearance, judging by one reader's experience.
When a person opens a new empty browser tab in Chrome, the browser shows an array of thumbnails of previously visited sites. One of those sites, the reader said, was labeled "Google Chrome Themes Gallery." The screenshot shows a multicolored array of themes for the browser.
It's a good thing Google apparently is working on the Web site, because already Chrome is ready to be directly connected to it.

Matchmaking services for commuters gaining speed
Tuesday - 7/10/2012, 7:05am  ET
WASHINGTON - Carpooling is on the rise, and social media and apps have a lot to do with that increase.
While slugging is common for commuters in the D.C. metro area, ride sharing has long been a hard sell in America. Folks have different places to go, and there are safety concerns about riding with strangers.
But The New York Times reports commuters are using technology to find new ways to connect with one another.
Websites, including zimride.com, ridejoy.com and erideshare.com, are popping up like dating sites.
Ridejoy.com addresses safety issues by verifying identities and conducting background checks, and eRideShare is currently testing a mobile phone app to match drivers and passengers.
Some of these carpooling websites take a part of the fee drivers charge riders, but it's free to sign up.
Locally, Commuter Connections matches drivers and riders and helps drivers calculate the costs of commuting.

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Updated: 10:54 p.m. Friday, Feb. 1, 2013 | Posted: 4:07 a.m. Friday, Feb. 1, 2013
By News Staff
A winter weather advisory has been issued for 4 a.m Saturday until 7 a.m. Sunday for several counties in the Miami Valley and southwest Ohio.
The advisory issued by the National Weather Service at 3:07 p.m. includes Auglaize, Butler, Champaign, Clark, Darke, Greene, Logan, Miami, Montgomery, Preble, Shelby and Warren counties in Ohio and the Indiana counties of Wayne and Union.
This evening will include frigid air with wind chill values at or below zero degrees, said Storm Center 7 Meteorologist McCall Vrydaughs.
Snow is expected to arrive after midnight, and between 2 and 3 inches may accumulate by sunrise. A second clipper system may bring an additional inch Saturday night into Sunday.
The breeze will pick up a bit Sunday afternoon, so we may have a little blowing and drifting and that may keep roads slick for a bit after the snow ends, said Storm Center 7 Chief Meteorologist Jamie Simpson. Highs the next two days will be in the mid 20s with a low Sunday morning around 20.
"We'll see some clearing Sunday night and that means a colder start Monday, in the mid teens," Simpson said. "Any early sun Monday will give way to more clouds and another batch of light snow, arriving in the afternoon and ending sometime Monday evening."
"This should bring light accumulation — although not nearly as much as the weekend snow— and cause slick spots for Monday evening's commute," he said.
Tuesday is almost certainly going to offer a repeat of Monday, but that snow may arrive a bit later. The threat of slick roads for Tuesday evening's commute is in place, Simpson said.
Sun is expected to return Wednesday with temperatures reaching a few degrees above freezing in the afternoon.

chapter 6What Type of Despotism Democratic Nations Have to FearaI had noticed during my stay in the United States that a democratic social state similar to that of the Americans could offer singular opportunities for the establishment of despotism,b and I had seen on my return to Europe how most of our princes had already made use of the ideas, sentiments and needs that arose from that social state, in order to expand the circle of their power. That led me to believe that Christian nations would end perhaps by suffering some oppression similar to that which weighed formerly on several of the peoples of antiquity.c A more detailed examination of the subject and five years of new meditations have not lessened my fears, but they have changed their object. We have never in past centuries seen a sovereign so absolute and so powerful that he undertook to administer by himself, and without the help of secondary powers, all the parts of a great empire; there is none who attempted to subject all his subjects indiscriminately to the details of a uniform rule, or who descended to the side of each one of his subjects in order to rule over him and to lead him. The idea of such an undertaking had never occurred to the human mind, and if a man ever happened to imagine it, the insufficiency of enlightenment, the imperfection of administrative procedures, and above all the natural obstacles that inequality of conditions created would have soon stopped him in the execution of such a vast design. We see that in the time of the greatest power of the Caesars, the different peoples who inhabited the Roman world had still kept diverse customs and mores. Although subjected to the same monarch, most of the provinces were administered separately; they were full of powerful and active municipalities, and although all the government of the empire was concentrated in the hands of the emperor alone, and although he remained always, as needed, the arbiter of all things, the details of social life and of individual existence ordinarily escaped his control. The emperors possessed, it is true, an immense power without counterbalance, which allowed them to give themselves freely to their bizarre inclinations and to use the entire strength of the State to satisfy them; they often happened to abuse this power in order arbitrarily to take away a citizen's property or his life. Their tyranny weighed prodigiously on a few; but it did not extend to a great number; it was tied to a few great principal matters and neglected the rest; it was violent and limited.d It seems that, if despotism came to be established among the democratic nations of today, it would have other characteristics; it would be more extensive and milder, and it would degrade men without tormenting them. I do not doubt that, in centuries of enlightenment and equality such as ours, sovereigns might have succeeded more easily in uniting all public powers in their hands alone, and in penetrating more habitually and more deeply into the circle of private interests, than any of those of antiquity were ever able to do. But this same equality, which facilitates despotism, tempers it; we have seen how, as men are more similar and more equal, public mores become more humane and milder; when no citizen has a great power or great wealth, tyranny lacks, in a way, opportunity and theater. Since all fortunes are mediocre, passions are naturally contained, imagination limited, pleasures simple. This universal moderation moderates the sovereign himself and stops within certain limits the disordered impulse of his desires. Apart from these reasons drawn from the very nature of the social state, I could add many others that would take me beyond my subject; but I want to keep myself within the limits that I have set for myself. Democratic governments will be able to become violent and even cruel in certain moments of great agitation and great dangers; but these crises will be rare and passing. When I think about the petty passions of the men of our times, about the softness of their mores, about the extent of their enlightenment, about the purity of their religion, about the mildness of their morality, about their painstaking and steady habits, about the restraint that they nearly all maintain in vice as in virtue, I am not afraid that they will find in their leaders tyrants, but rather tutors. So I think that the type of oppression by which democratic peoples are threatened will resemble nothing of what preceded it in the world; our contemporaries cannot find the image of it in their memories. I seek in vain myself for an expression that exactly reproduces the idea that I am forming of it and includes it; [<the thing that I want to speak about is new, and men have not yet created the expression which must portray it.>] the old words of despotism and of tyranny do not work. The thing is new, so I must try to define it, since I cannot name it.e I want to imagine under what new features despotism could present itself to the world; I see an innumerable crowd of similar and equal men who spin around restlessly, in order to gain small and vulgar pleasures with which they fill their souls.f Each one of them, withdrawn apart, is like a stranger to the destiny of all the others; his children and his particular friends form for him the entire human species;g as for the remainder of his fellow citizens, he is next to them, but he does not see them; he touches them without feeling them; he exists only in himself and for himself alone, and if he still has a family, you can say that at least he no longer has a country.h Above those men arises an immense and tutelary power that alone takes charge of assuring their enjoyment and of looking after their fate. It is absolute, detailed, regular, far-sighted and mild. It would resemble paternal power if, like it, it had as a goal to prepare men for manhood; but on the contrary it seeks only to fix them irrevocably in childhood; it likes the citizens to enjoy themselves, provided that they think only about enjoying themselves.j It works willingly for their happiness; but it wants to be the unique agent for it and the sole arbiter; it attends to their security, provides for their needs, facilitates their pleasures, conducts their principal affairs, directs their industry, settles their estates, divides their inheritances;k how can it not remove entirely from them the trouble to think and the difficulty of living? This is how it makes the use of free will less useful and rarer every day; how it encloses the action of the will within a smaller space and little by little steals from each citizen even the use of himself.m Equality has prepared men for all these things; it has disposed men to bear them and often even to regard them as a benefit. After having thus taken each individual one by one into its powerful hands, and having molded him as it pleases, the sovereign power extends its arms over the entire society; it covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated, minute, and uniform rules, which the most original minds and the most vigorous souls cannot break through to go beyond the crowd; it does not break wills, but it softens them, bends them and directs them; [<≠in certain moments of great passions and great dangers, the sovereign power becomes suddenly violent and arbitrary. Habitually it is moderate, benevolent, regular and humane≠>] it rarely forces action, but it constantly opposes your acting; it does not destroy, it prevents birth; it does not tyrannize, it hinders, it represses, it enervates, it extinguishes, it stupifies, and finally it reduces each nation to being nothing more than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd.n I have always believed that this sort of servitude, regulated, mild and peaceful, of which I have just done the portrait, could be combined better than we imagine with some of the external forms of liberty, and that it would not be impossible for it to be established in the very shadow of the sovereignty of the people.o [I suppose that a democratic nation, after destroying within it all the secondary powers, establishes in its midst a very inquisitorial, very extensive, very centralized, very powerful executive power, that it confers on this power the right to conduct all the details of public affairs and to lead a part of private affairs, that it put [sic ] individuals in a strict and daily dependence on this power, but that it makes this executive power itself depend on an elected legislature which, without governing, traces the principal rules of the government. <I go still further and I suppose that the administration, instead of being alongside the legislative chambers, is in the very legislature, as was seen in France at the time of the Convention, so that the same elected power makes the law and executes it even in its smallest details.> All that means, if I am not mistaken, that after allowing the sovereign power as a master to direct each citizen [v: particular wills] and to bend him every day as it pleases, the sovereign itself is subjected from time to time to the general will [volontés générales: (Translator)] of the nation.] Our contemporaries are incessantly tormented by two hostile passions: they feel the need to be led and the desire to remain free. Unable to destroy either the one or the other of these opposite instincts, they work hard to satisfy both at the same time. They imagine a unique, tutelary, omnipotent power, but elected by the citizens. They combine centralizationp and sovereignty of the people. That gives them some relief. They console themselves about being in tutelage by thinking that they have chosen their tutors themselves. Each individual endures being bound, because he sees that it is not a man or a class, but the people itself that holds the end of the chain. In this system, the citizens emerge for a moment from dependency in order to indicate their master, and return to it.q There are many men today who accommodate themselves very easily to this type of compromise between administrative despotism and sovereignty of the people, and who think they have guaranteed the liberty of individuals when it is to the national power that they deliver that liberty. That is not enough for me. The nature of the master is much less important to me than the obedience. I will not deny, however, that such a constitution is infinitely preferable to one that, after concentrating all powers, would put them in the hands of an unaccountable man or body. Of all the different forms that democratic despotism could take, the latter would assuredly be the worst. When the sovereign is elected or closely supervised by a legislature truly elected and independent, the oppression that it can make individuals suffer is sometimes greater; but the oppression is always less degrading because each citizen, when he is being hindered and when he is reduced to powerlessness, can still imagine that by obeying he is only submitting to himself, and that it is to one of his desires that he is sacrificing all the rest.r I understand equally that, when the sovereign represents the nation and depends on it, the strength and the rights that are taken from each citizen do not serve only the leader of the State, but profit the State itself, and that individuals gain some advantage from the sacrifice of their independence that they have made to the public. [I understand also that when public opinion draws certain limits and can keep the sovereign power within them, tyranny properly speaking is little to be feared, or at least it can never become general. Thus it is not the tyranny of the social power that is the most to fear, but its regular use.]s To create a national representation in a very centralized country, is therefore to diminish the evil that extreme centralization can produce, but not to destroy it.t I see clearly that, in this way, individual intervention is kept in the most important affairs; but it is no less suppressed in the small ones and the particular ones.u We forget that it is dangerous, above all, to enslave men in the detail. I would, for my part, be led to believe liberty less necessary in the great things than in the least, if I thought that the one could ever be assured without possessing the other. Subjection in small affairs manifests itself every day and makes itself felt indiscriminately by all citizens. It does not drive them to despair; but it thwarts them constantly and leads them to relinquish the use of their will [and finally to give up on themselves]. It thus extinguishes their spirit little by little, and enervates their souls; while the obedience that is due only in a small number of very grave, but very rare circumstances, displays servitude only now and then, and makes it weigh only on certain men. In vain will you charge these same citizens, whom you have made so dependent on the central power, with choosing from time to time the representatives of this power; this use so important, but so short and so rare, of their free will, will not prevent them from losing little by little the ability to think, to feel and to act by themselves, and from thus falling gradually below the level of humanity.v I add that they will soon become incapable of [properly] exercising the great and sole privilege remaining to them. Democratic peoples who have introduced liberty in the political sphere, at the same time that they increased despotism in the administrative sphere, have been led to very strange peculiarities.w If small affairs, in which simple good sense can suffice, must be managed, they consider that the citizens are incapable of it; if it is a matter of the government of the whole State, they entrust these citizens with immense prerogatives; they make them alternately the playthings of the sovereign and its masters, more than kings and less than men. After having exhausted all the different systems of election, without finding one that suits them, they are surprised and still search; as if the evil that they notice were not due to the constitution of the country much more than to that of the electoral body. It is, in fact, difficult to imagine how men who have entirely given up the habit of directing themselves, could succeed in choosing well those who should lead them; and it cannot be believed that a liberal, energetic and wise government can ever come out of the votes of a people of servants.x A constitution that would be republican at the head, and ultra-monarchical in all the other parts has always seemed to me an ephemeral monster. The vices of those who govern and the imbecility of the governed would not take long to lead them to ruin; and the people, tired of its representatives and of itself, would create freer institutions, or would soon return to stretching out at the feet of a single master.y [a. ] What the character of military despotism would be if it came to be established among a democratic people. Idea to treat either at military spirit or at administrative despotism. Probably at the first. To blend into a chapter rather than to treat separately. I see two places for this. 1. The first is after what I said about the turbulent spirit of the army, about its habitual discontent, about the place that it occupies in society. I could show these sentiments leading the army to seize the government. I would then say in what spirit it would govern. 2. Here is the second place: after painting administrative despotism, I could ask myself if it would not be changed for the worse by its combination with military government (something possible). I would prove that things would hardly be worse. I would then pass to the combination of this same despotism with sovereignty of the people and I would prove that things would hardly be better. 3. Finally couldn't I place this idea separately (illegible word)? (YTC, CVj, 2, pp. 9-10). [b. ]"Despotism, tyrannical, arbitrary and absolute government of only one man (or of only one power must be added). "The principle of despotic States is that only one man governs there entirely according to his will, having absolutely no other laws than that of his caprices. Encyclopédie.This was written before we had seen the despotism of an assembly under the Republic." In another place in the rubish: "This word despotism is unfortunate because its old meaning does not exactly correspond to the new meaning that I want to give it" (Rubish,2). [c. ] To the side: "<Perhaps place this here: "Those, I said, who think to rediscover the monarchy of H[enri (ed.)]. IV or L[ouis (ed.)]. XIV seem very blind to me. As for me, when I consider the state which several European nations have already reached and toward which all the others are tending, I feel myself led to believe that among them there will soon no longer be a place except for democratic liberty or for the tyranny of the Caesars.>" Tocqueville cites here p. 511 of the second volume. [d. ] 7 March 1838. I said in the first part of this book that the new societies could well finally arrive at something similar to what we saw at the fall of the Roman empire. There is no longer any middle ground, I said, between the government of all and the tyranny of the Caesars. Four years of new meditations made me consider the same matter from another point of view and convinced me that if men are enslaved, they will be so in an entirely new fashion and will exhibit a spectacle for which the past has not prepared us. There was something of the great, of the colossal in the Roman tyranny, of the aristocratic, the magnificent, of the master of slaves, of the barbaric, of the pagan. All things that cannot habitually be found in a civilized and democratic society. New society, regular, peaceful, ruled with art and uniformity, mixture of college, seminary, regiment, asleep rather than chained in the arms of clerks and soldiers, bureaucratic tyranny, fond of red tape, very repressive of all impulse, destroying the will for great things in germ, but mild and regular, equal for all. A sort of paternity without the purpose of bringing the children to manhood. That is the real and original picture. That of the first volume was declamatory, common, hackneyed and false (Rubish, 2). To reflect. If, instead of the disordered despotism of the army rabble, idea already known, it would not be better to introduce here the portrait of a regulated despotism in which everything happens with as much order, meticulousness, and tyranny as in a barracks. If instead of that I adopt the ancient idea of military despotism, there is at least a new notion to show. It is military despotism following revolution and democratic anarchy, becoming established in a time when everything has been overturned and when nothing has yet settled down in positions, habits, ideas, tastes, when everything is in question, when the limits of the just and the unjust are abolished, when even the limits of practice and custom no longer exist, when we are accustomed to everything, when we expect anything in advance, when nothing is absolutely unforeseen and everything possible. [To the side] Perhaps the image of the barracks could be placed after that as the port, the definitive state (YTC, CVd, pp. 15-16). On the different types of despotism in the work of Tocqueville, see James T. Schleifer,The Making of Tocqueville's "Democracy in America," pp. 147-56, 179-85. Roger Boesche, "The Prison, Tocqueville's Model for Despotism," Western Political Quarterly 33, no. 4 (1980): 550-63, established some points of similarity between the despotism of Tocqueville and his idea of the prison. [f. ] Liberty in the very midst of these diversions is always serious. But there is nothing so joyful as despotism. The sight of human miseries, the unhappy are its natural enemies. It loves on the contrary to find the image of joy everywhere in its path, and it is pleased with games and spectacles. However timid it is by its nature, it does not fear the excesses of a licentious gaity; and the foulest voluptuous pleasures do not frighten it. No one desires more than it does that peoples enjoy themselves, provided that they think only about enjoying themselves; and it willingly intoxicates them with pleasures so that they do more easily without happiness (YTC, CVd, p. 12). In a similar fragment, on p. 13 of the same notebook, this sentence is found: "Only novice despots are enemies of joy. Free governments seek to give men happiness rather than pleasure" (YTC, CVd, p. 13). The rubish contains an identical passage. [g. ] In the margin: "<Perhaps narrow this tableau. See the effect that it produces when reading.>" [h. ] In the margin: "<See if this is not found word for word at individualism; that the idea was there would not be important. "Very useful here, try to leave it.>" [j. ] Note in the manuscript: Idea that revolutions and anarchy could be combined with this sort of administrative despotism. Days of anarchy in years of despotism. Revolutions always short and not very profound, but perhaps frequent. Palace revolutions that I can easily distinguish from great revolutions, the near impossibility of which I depicted above. These are not revolutions truly speaking. Idea to introduce somewhere in this chapter. Because our contemporaries fear disorder much more than servitude, they must be struck from that side. A draft comments: To fight despotism I am obliged to prove that it leads to anarchy. If it led only to itself, it would perhaps be followed willingly. [In the margin: Continuation of note (B. B.). Perhaps at the type of despotism which threatens us./ If you could believe in a tranquil and stable despotism, that is to say, in the worst of all, my cause would be lost./ A singular state, ours, in which we have had at the same time too little liberty and license, too little authority and tyranny!/ For a people who has come to the state that I suppose, anarchy, license are possible accidents, even probable ones, but despotism is the normal condition.] Anarchy is not a lasting state, despotism is. Apathy where we find ourselves leads it is true to anarchy and to despotism. But I can say nonetheless that it leads to despotism because despotism is the final state. Can't this be disputed? And is it not permissible to believe that, in a country in which you would have equality of conditions without rooted free institutions, you could go perpetually from anarchy to despotism and from despotism to anarchy without ever settling down? No, despotism would finish by taking root, growing and finally covering the whole country with its harmful shadow. If that is true, it must be said. It would be an order of ideas that could be developed with advantage and with coloring. You could believe that equality gives too much taste for independence for despotism to be lasting, and too few habits of independence and means of defending it for liberty to be lasting./ I believe, after all, that all the movement of my (illegible word), which is the tendency of democratic societies toward despotism, is true and must remain, but it must be amply inserted somewhere that this tendency does not exclude a great deal of anarchy before and during this gradual but not continuous march toward despotism. Equality, without rooted free institutions, leading to anarchy almost as energetically as to despotism (YTC, CVk, 2, pp. 48-49). [k. ] Toward the end of the manuscript of the chapter: "≠The aristocracy of England is the only one that knows how to defend itself and that has offered liberty to men at the cost of equality; it will fall, but it will fall slowly, and with glory.≠" [m. ] There are men who have no will to distinguish themselves from their fellows; there are others who have, on the contrary, a permanent and continual will to do so. There are others finally who make only small efforts in order to raise themselves above the earth and who immediately fall back. The latter are the unhappiest of all; for they have the troubles of ambition without having the dubious pleasures of it. All of man is in the will. His entire future is hidden there as in a germ that the first ray of good fortune comes to make fruitful. There are women who put qualities of character before everything, because those qualities provide the tranquillity of every day, and for those women the idea of happiness does not go beyond the tranquillity and peace of the household. Women of that kind recall to me those men who prefer the type of social paralysis given by despotism to the agitation and the great emotions of liberty. Both hold the same place in my estimation (YTC, CVa, p. 56). [n. ] On a loose sheet of the manuscript: Centralization./ Show well that the administrative despotism that I am speaking about is independent of representative, liberal or revolutionary institutions, in a word, of political power; that whether the political world is led by an absolute king, by one or several assemblies, whether it is contested in the name of liberty or of order, whether it even falls into anarchy, whether it becomes weak and is divided, the action of the administrative power will be neither less continuous nor less strong, nor less overwhelming. [To the side: The man or class that puts the administrative machine in motion can change without the machine changing. You can argue in order to know who will hold the instrument of tyranny, but the instrument remains the same.] It is a true distinction and one very important to make in order to dispel the cloud that exists in the mind of the reader every time that you threaten with tyranny the men of today who live amid anarchy and who see political power vacillate or become weak./ [To the side: A great political anarchy and an overwhelming administrative despotism./ 4 May 1838.] [o. ] So you can say that for democratic peoples centralization is an innate idea. Not only will this monstrous concentration of all the social [v: political] powers in the same hands not shock the natural ideas of democratic peoples as regards government, but it will favor several of the secret instincts and the most lively tastes that equality [v: their social state] suggests. Equality of conditions suggests naturally to men an intense and constant taste for material well-being. I said so elsewhere. I have also shown in another place how, as equality became greater, each man, finding himself more independent and more separated from his fellows, felt more disposed to consider himself (this word implies a contradiction with what precedes on the innate idea of centralization) separately and to live in isolation. Those are powerful instruments of tyranny for whoever knows how to use them. Far from combating these natural tendencies of a democratic social state, a government which aims for absolute power will work with all its power to make them irresistible, and it will inflame the passions that liberty should moderate or extinguish. There exist in the south of Europe petty princes whose tyranny is so touchy and so irksome that the life of the most inoffensive citizens [v: the most servile and the most peaceful souls are] was saddened and made uncomfortable by it. Those princes are, if I am not mistaken, clumsy despots. They bring to the execution of their designs more zeal than light, and they do not know that in the centuries in which we are living men are more disposed to bear that you violate their rights than their comforts. [To the side: Two consequences of the taste for material well-being for a despot to look after: 1. Softening of souls which causes you no longer to have a taste for the highest pleasures that liberty provides; 2. Effort of the whole human spirit toward the acquisition of well-being, which causes you no longer to have the time to give yourself to those pleasures.] The clever man who seeks to establish absolute power among a democratic nation will demand only one thing from the citizens: that they do not get involved in the government and contract none of the habits that can in the long run lead men to get involved in it. But he will also work hard to make civil life as independent, as prosperous, as easy as it can be without political liberty. He will facilitate material well-being with all his power; he will honor it, he will glorify it each day in the eyes of the crowd, and pushing with all his power the souls that are naturally inclined toward solely the enjoyments of the senses, he will turn them away from the most beautiful works and the most noble pleasures of man. Among democratic peoples men have little leisure; they are all naturally very occupied with their private affairs and only impatiently do they bear being turned away from them. The concern for common interests distracts and fatigues them; the sovereign power appears and unburdens them. Do not believe that it intends to oppress them in this way; it is relieving them. It carefully organizes the time of which they make such good use, and removes from them the troubles and the worries of government in order to deliver them entirely to concerns about their private fortunes. So the State is full of solicitude for the happiness of the citizens, but it wants to be the unique agent and the sole (illegible word) of it. It is the State that takes care of providing their security, facilitating their pleasures, directing the principal affairs; the State itself creates roads, digs canals, directs industries, divides inheritances. It may even be able to plow the earth and finally take away from each man even the difficulty of living! Equality of conditions has prepared men for all these things; it has disposed them to bear them and often even to regard them as a good. This is how, aiding itself sometimes with the vices of men, sometimes with their weaknesses, often with their inexperience, the central power little by little andwithout effort takes hold of the entire life of a democratic people. It does not tear their rights away from them; their rights are abandoned to it. It does not do violence to mores [v: sentiments]; it does not overturn ideas, but it gently directs both toward servitude. Here it is, acknowledged arbiter of everything. Society does nothing for itself, and it does everything. Divided from his fellows, each citizen thinks only of himself. The source of public virtues has dried up. [What will the first tyrant who is coming be called? I do not know, but he is approaching. What is still missing for this deceptive symbol of public order to disappear and for a profound and incurable disorder to be revealed? What more is needed for this sublime authority, for this visible providence that we have established among us to be able to trample underfoot the most holy laws, do violence as it pleases to our hearts and walk over our heads? War. Peace has prepared despotism, war establishes it. [In the margin: Not only as a consequence of victory, but war alone by the need for power and for concentration that it creates. A new aristocracy of soldiers is the only one that seems to me still practical.(YTC, CVd, pp. 3-4, 8-9, 9-10, 10-12). There are several variants of these passages in the same pages. In another place, Tocqueville repeats: "When I said that there was no more aristocracy possible, I was mistaken; you can still have the aristocracy of men of war" (YTC, CVd, p. 26). ]][p. ] The French believe that centralization is French. They are wrong; it is democratic and I dare to predict that all peoples whose social state will be the same and who follow only the instincts that this social state suggests will arrive at the point where we are./ Destroy classes, equalize ranks, make men similar, and you will see power become centralized as if by itself, whatever the country, the genius of the people or the state of enlightenment. Particular circumstances will be able to hasten the natural movement or slow it down, but not stop it or create an opposite one. [To the side: Contained within certain limits, centralization is a necessary fact, and I add that it is a fact about which we must be glad./ A strong and intelligent central power is one of the first political necessities in centuries of equality. Acknowledge it boldly] (Rubish, 2). Already in 1828, in an already quoted letter to Gustave de Beaumont, Tocqueville said of Edward I: "He reestablished order and made good civil laws which, as you know, often make people forget about good political laws" (Correspondance avec Beaumont, OC, VIII, 1, p. 55). [q. ] "<This is seen above all today in the nations of Europe, still half filled with liberal passions that arose from the struggle with aristocracy, working hard to find a form of government that at the same time satisfies the love that they still have for independence and the new instincts that make them tend toward servitude>" (Note in the drafts that could also refer to another part of the chapter, Rubish, 2). [r. ] In the margin: "<I do not know if, everything considered, this is still not the best course that you can reasonably hope from equality and the only type of liberty that it is capable of allowing to men.>" And a little further along: "<All the end of the chapter starting from here seems to me to come to an end too abruptly. All the more because that is the most vulnerable side and the most interesting side of the entire book.>" [s. ] In the margin: "<This is not relevant because I have already ruled out the idea of tyranny above.>" [t. ] Title on a jacket: That the instinct of democratic peoples is to want one great assembly of its representatives rather than secondary assemblies. That a government that aims at tyranny among a democratic people can tolerate a great general representation {(it is often obliged to do so)}, but must never allow secondary assemblies {(which is usually easy for it)}. [Within the jacket] Unique assembly./ If I were secretly a friend of absolute power and were, however, forced to grant my country the forms of liberty, I would seek first to untangle among free institutions those that a democratic people imagines the best, that it requires with the most authority, and that its leaders cannot refuse to it without danger; I would soon discover that what it asks above all, still less by reasoning than by instinct, is one general assembly of its representatives. All the rest seems doubtful or indifferent to it, but this first axiom of its politics seems principal and almost unique to it. So I would hasten to yield to this irresistible desire of an emerging democracy. I would allow the free will of all the citizens to be represented in one assembly, but I would want it to express itself only there. I would grant independence for great affairs; I would keep despotism for small ones, so that if I were forced to tolerate liberty in the laws, I would at least prevent liberty from becoming established in habits. [In the margin: So I would limit myself to making a magnificent exception to the general rule of servitude, following this principle of logic that the exception proves the rule and confirms it.] ≠So I would allow the deputies of the whole country to deliberate on peace and war, regulate the finances of the State, its prosperity, its industry, its life, but I would prevent at all cost the inhabitants [v: representatives] of a canton from having the liberty to settle things among themselves.≠ A great legislative body placed at the center of a democratic people manifests the present independence of this people, but it cannot ever guarantee its future independence. Since it is at the very same time provided with a great material strength and an immense moral power, since it alone has the right to speak in the general silence, since it alone can act amid the universal weakness, it feels itself above all the laws; it is free from all the rules and sheltered from all points of resistance. So it bends wills as it wishes, abolishes rights, alters or changes mores. And if it comes finally to be destroyed or to destroy itself, the habits of servility that it created survive it. [To the side: You bring to the national representation men who have received no preliminary and in a way primary education in the representative system; they appear ignorant, undisciplined, indecisive, confused; you then say that it is the representative system which is worth nothing and you distance yourself from it. All that I see and hear since my arrival in Paris (April 1837) shows me that in a lively way.] To concentrate all the political life of a people in one assembly is to give to liberty only a single head and to expose it to perishing with one blow. So as long as a free institution of this nature remains isolated, it always leaves fair hopes to despotism; it is an evil that carries its remedy with it (YTC, CVd, pp. 45-48). There are other versions of this paragraph in CVd, pp. 48-52. Following the coup d'état of Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte, Tocqueville will abandon all political activity. In February 1852, he writes to a friend, with an entirely similar tone: I have refused any type of candidacy for the next elections, not wanting to have the appearance of taking seriously the parody of a free government that is going to be played. You know that the new assembly is nothing because it has no publicity and can only reject the budget without being able to amend it, and you have learned undoubtedly that the candidates who would want to oppose those of the government cannot either speak to the voters, or write to them, or form committees, or travel across the country without risk of being arrested; that in a word the new power pursues its plan to govern with the aid of the peasants and the soldiers, borrowing from democracy only its worst principle, the brutal strength of numbers, the universal vote amid the silence and the darkness that despotism creates. You understand that it is better to write books than to get involved in such a mess (Letter of Tocqueville to Milnes, 9 February 1852. With the kind permission of Trinity College, Cambridge. Houghton papers, 25/209). [u. ] In the margin: <Perhaps begin this page with this sentence: I see citizens who gather together to constitute and regulate in common a sole and unique power that represents them all and to which each one of them delivers the care of his particular interests and which he charges with exercising all rights. In this way, something of individual intervention is preserved in the most important and most general affairs, but it is suppressed entirely in the small ones and the particular ones. We forget . . .> [v. ] The Americans have avoided these first dangers of democratic infancy. Although they have granted immense rights to society, they have not sacrificed the individual to it. They have left to the latter, outside of the political world, a great security and a great independence. They have not given the government the same civil privileges, and they have not put it beyond the reach and the control of the judicial power by requiring in a stupid manner as we the necessity of the division of powers (unity, centralization, administrative despotism,Rubish, 2). [w. ] Note at the end of the manuscript of the chapter: Their pet hobby is to want to combine the greatest political independence with the greatest administrative dependence. I would do well, I believe, to hit this prejudice straight on, to say something analogous to the above sentence, to say that that comes from tugging in opposite directions. We tend toward liberty and toward servitude at the same time; we want to combine them, although they cannot be combined. Not able to be free, we want at least to be oppressed in the name of the people. [x. ] Unity, centralization./ We believe we are making a clever and sufficient concession by allowing these same men, almost entirely deprived of their free will in every day actions, to unite now and then to choose one of the three great powers. In other words, after refusing to them the right to direct their own affairs, we concede to them the privilege of governing the State. [To the side: The idea opposite is good. If I want to strike minds by the picture of administrative despotism, I must move away as little as possible from what we see before our eyes. A tyranny of the Caesars was a bogeyman that cannot make anyone afraid, although at bottom that is not so unreasonable as we think. I must not aim to say the most complete truth, but the most easily grasped and the most useful.] This is a very insufficient and very dangerous remedy. A national assembly named by such voters cannot fail to be revolutionary or servile. It is a great foolishness to hope to make a strong, liberal, energetic and wise government emerge from a people of servants./ 6 April 1838 (Rubish, 2). On another page, Tocqueville adds: "I cannot prevent myself from considering this form of government as transitory. It leads necessarily to institutions truly [v: more] liberal or to the non-accountable despotism of one man" (Rubish, 2). [y. ] "Those who believe they are able to stop for long at a government which is republican at its head and ultra-monarchical at its tail, chambers and a centralized administration, are great fools. But the thing can go for a while in this way. Portray it in the place where I do the portrait of democratic despotism. "22 June" (Rubish, 2). |

Hearty Vegetable Soup Recipe
A friend gave me the idea to use V8 juice in soup recipes because it provides more flavor. This soup is great to make on a crisp autumn afternoon.
- 8 medium carrots, sliced
- 2 large onions, chopped
- 4 celery ribs, chopped
- 1 large green pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 4 cups water
- 1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
- 2 cups V8 juice
- 2 cups chopped cabbage
- 2 cups frozen cut green beans
- 2 cups frozen peas
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 can (15 ounces) garbanzo beans or chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
- 1-1/2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- In a Dutch oven, saute the carrots, onions, celery and green pepper in oil until crisp-tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until vegetables are tender. Discard bay leaf. Yield: 14-16 servings (4 quarts).

Reviewed May. 25, 2013
I was looking around the Internet for a good vegetable soup recipe and came across this one. It caught my attention because of the V8 juice ingredient. I just finished making it, and substituted chicken broth for the water and chicken bouillon. It is very tasty, just like I anticipated. It looks beautiful too, with all the colorful veggies in it. I will make this recipe again!
