Blogger Richard Bartholomew notes the beginning of a Sept. 3 blog post by Washington Times religion editor Julia Duin:
On Sept. 25, Dar ul Islam, a mosque in Elizabeth, N.J., is slating a massive Friday "jummah" prayer event at the west front of the U.S. Capitol; on the very site that President Obama gave his inauguration speech not so long ago. This is not a joke.
As Bartholomew asks: "Why would it be 'a joke'?"
Duin goes on to write, "Well, I guess if Louis Farrakhan could preach from the same spot during the Million Man March nearly 14 years ago, so can these folks." Unmentioned by Duin, as Bartholomew points out, is that last year, the West Lawn of the Capitol was used for another event: a "Global Peace Festival" in which one featured speaker was the son of Unification Church founder -- and Washington Times owner -- Sun Myung Moon (as the Times reported).
Here's the thing about Pat Buchanan: No matter what outrageous statement he makes, you should have seen it coming. He's done it before.
So when he recently argued that Hitler has gotten a bum rap and didn't really want war, that was bad. But he's said it before -- and suggested the Holocaust was Churchill's fault.
Now Buchanan is whining that "Old heroes like ... Robert E. Lee are replaced by Dr. King."
Wow! That's flat-out crazy!
But ... It isn't surprising. After all:
Buchanan urged Nixon not to visit Rev. Martin Luther King's widow, warning that such a visit would "outrage many, many people who believe Dr. King was a fraud and a demagogue and perhaps worse. ... Others consider him the Devil incarnate. Dr. King is one of the most divisive men in contemporary history."
In his 1990 book, Right From the Beginning, Buchanan reminisced fondly about his childhood in segregated Washington, D.C.: "In the late 1940's and 1950's ... race was never a preoccupation with us, we rarely thought about it. ... There were no politics to polarize us then, to magnify every slight. The 'Negroes' of Washington had their public schools, restaurants, bars, movie houses, playgrounds and churches; and we had ours."
Last year, Buchanan suggested that slavery worked out pretty well for "black folks":
Again, that was just last year. And Buchanan went on to argue that "no people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white Americans," an assertion he supported with a laundry list of government programs that, though he didn't mention this part, he spent his career opposing. Nor did he mention the inconvenient fact of his opposition to integration.
Instead, the man who once wrote in a memo to Richard Nixon that "integration of blacks and whites ... is less likely to result in accommodation than it is in perpetual friction, as the incapable are placed consciously by government side by side with the capable," now argues that African-Americans are insufficiently grateful for the gifts white America has given them, starting with slavery.
I don't mean to suggest that Buchanan's views are old news and should be ignored. No, they should be denounced, loudly, and consistently. I mean only to make clear that the sponsors of Buchanan's virulent screeds (MSNBC/NBC/General Electric) cannot claim ignorance of his views. Not after five decades.
It's pretty much what critics feared would happen under the ownership of Rupert Murdoch: The paper's proud tradition of straight news would be compromised. And it has been. The purposeful dumbing down that's taken place inside the Journal newsroom has been sweeping.
Just take a look at this painfully dumb (and GOP-friendly) story by Amy Schatz from today's news section headlined, "FCC Official Comes Under Fire for Past Statements."
The lede:
New Federal Communications Commission chief Julius Genachowski says he wants to promote diversity in media ownership, but his recent decision to hire Mark Lloyd, a civil-rights attorney critical of corporate-owned media, to help with that effort has riled some talk-radio hosts who fear the agency is planning to go after them.
To call this a non-story would be polite. Some right-wing radio nuts are returning to the Fairness Doctrine fever swamp, claiming Democrats and government bogymen like Lloyd are out to silence them (the nuts have zero proof, as usual), and the Journal treats it as news.
Worse, the Journal pretends there's some sort of "uproar" over the hiring of Lloyd, a mid-level staff attorney who sets no policy. Here, dear readers, is the entire proof provided by the Journal of the "uproar" [emphasis added]:
The administration "is trying to stifle dissenting voices," said radio host Rush Limbaugh, discussing Mr. Lloyd with Fox News host Glenn Beck last month. (Fox News is owned by News Corp., which owns The Wall Street Journal.)
"He doesn't like corporate ownership of media," said Seton Motley, communications director of the Media Research Center, a conservative interest group that has been critical of Mr. Lloyd. "He wants to use the vast power of the FCC to hammerlock the radio industry."
Iowa Republican Sen. Charles Grassley in a letter last month to Mr. Genachowski said that "given the appointment of Mr. Lloyd," he was concerned that the FCC chairman was moving away from pledges not to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine, a policy abandoned in 1987 that required licensed broadcasters to give equal time to differing political views.
Honestly, if Journal editors now consider hanging on every nutty word uttered by Rush Limbaugh, and monitoring every pointless press release issued by the Media Research Center is news, than the newsroom's more lost than I feared. If Journal editors and reporters really think that every time there's an "outcry among conservative commentators," that the newspaper needs to immediately document the faux scandal, than the paper's become a lost cause.
But oh well, I'm sure Rupert's happy. And that's what now counts at the Journal, right?
UPDATED: Just how bad is the Journal's reporting? In the last two days, the Journal has published two stand-alone articles about Rep. Joe Wilson's "You lie!" outburst. In neither article did the Journal ever point out that Wilson's hysterical outburst about health care reform and illegal immigrants was baseless; that Wilson himself lied.
Yesterday, Media Matters for America noted that an Ashley Furniture HomeStore ad aired on that day's edition of Fox News' Glenn Beck, even though the company had previously stated it had "pulled" its advertising from the program. We subsequently received the following statement from Ashley Furniture:
"Ashley Furniture HomeStore confirmed the elimination of advertising from "Glenn Beck" with confirmation from the network as of Aug. 27, said Kendra Maggert, a spokeswoman for the company. "The ad that was aired yesterday cleared through a mechanical error at the network and was not intended to air on "Glenn Beck." We are working with the network to ensure that the mechanical error does not occur again and expect immediate confirmation from the network."
NewsBuster Rusty Weiss is very upset with the Associated Press. I'll let him explain why:
With the eight year anniversary of 9/11 mere hours away, the Associated Press has written a very moving, very emotional piece, focusing on victims who fear leaving the house on that day, victims who will never view that day as routine, victims who get a sick feeling in their stomach when the anniversary arrives each year - Muslims.
OK, so the AP shouldn't be reporting on the feelings of Muslims on 9-11. I'm not sure why they shouldn't be doing this, but Rusty offers an explanation:
While nobody is promoting discrimination against any group of people based on the actions of a maniacal few, one has to question if the alleged terror experienced by Muslims on this anniversary warrants a focal point? On a day in which Americans take time to remember the devastation and the loss of life on 9/11, we are encouraged by the AP to feel sorry for those who might receive strange stares, or may 'feel' less safe on this day because they are Muslim.
See if you can follow this -- Weiss isn't saying that the AP should discriminate against Muslims, he's just saying that the AP shouldn't report on Muslims on 9-11 because they are Muslim. That's pretty much the definition of "discrimination." Also notice how Weiss questions whether American Muslims really do experience their "alleged terror."
But it gets even better:
A quote from Sarah Sayeed attempts to capture the anxiety of the day as she wonders, 'should I go anywhere?' An appropriate question, but perhaps more so for Americans who asked themselves the same question weeks, months, and even years after the tragedy. There is no attempt to capture the anxiety of those who still give a quick glance up to the sky each time the sound of an airplane fills their ears.
The AP article notes that Sayeed was born in India but emigrated to the U.S. when she was 8 years old. There's an excellent chance that she is, in fact, an American citizen. And yet, Weiss casually segregates her from "Americans" -- presumably non-Muslim Americans whose thoughts and feelings he gives more weight to based solely on the fact that they aren't Muslim.
He caps everything off with this observation:
It seems that on a significant date in American history, the AP would rather focus on manufacturing sympathy for Muslims, than reporting on an actual tragedy for Americans.
This is just stupid. First off, notice once again the segregation of "Muslims" from "Americans." Secondly, the Associated Press runs dozens of articles each day, often on the same subject. Even if Weiss had a legitimate beef about the tone of this AP article, his suggestion that they have ignored all other aspects of September 11 is absurdly wrong.
This Washington Times article about Rep. Joe Wilson's outburst makes no effort to determine whether Wilson was right about Barack Obama lying. (He wasn't.) In fact, the Times devotes a couple of paragraphs to letting Wilson make his case:
Mr. Wilson further apologized Thursday for his outburst but defended his stance that the administration's health-care reform plan will include coverage for illegal immigrants.
Mr. Wilson said two amendments in Capitol Hill legislation that required proof of legal U.S. residence for heath care coverage were voted down by Democrats. He also said party leaders told him to apologize to the White House.
No mention of the fact that independent fact-checkers say Wilson is wrong. Not even a quote from a Democrat saying Wilson was wrong. Not so much as a hint that, on the facts (as opposed to the decorum) Wilson wrong.
So, then I open my email, and I see this message from the Washington Times to its readers:
Gee, maybe that has something to do with the Washington Times failing to tell readers Wilson was wrong?
More than five dozen advertisers. Incredibly, that's how many sponsors of Glenn Beck have gone on the record and announced they will no longer support his program. So why won't the press report that fact?
According to ColorofChange.org the number of fleeing advertisers has reached 62. As I've noted several times in recent weeks, I'm certain that with this astonishingly successful ad boycott we're watching television history unfold before our eyes. I can't recall any other television host, and not certainly one in modern times, that has managed to shed so many all-star, blue chip advertisers the way Beck has in the last month.
If ColorofChange had convinced six or seven corporate sponsors to walked away from Glenn Beck it would have been a big deal. But 62, and counting? It's unheard of. Period.
Question: If you were selling ad time on cable TV, would you rather build your show on the shoulders of Freije Treatment Systems, Mortgage relief hotline 1-888-336-5967, and IRSTaxAgreements.com, the way Glenn Beck is today? Or would you rather build your show around ad support from AT&T, Bank of America, and Best Buy, which is the way Glenn Beck used to be?
I thought so.
Glenn Beck has been utterly decimated from an advertising standpoint. It's practically the highest-rated show on cable news yet all of its big national advertisers are gone. All. Of. Them. It's gotten so bad, Glenn Beck is airing free ads from other Murdoch properties, such as the Wall Street Journal, just to fill up the inventory.
But boy, you sure wouldn't know any of that know from consuming the mainstream news media. Sure, there have been lots of mentions that a boycott exists. And especially after ColorofChange ally--and Glenn Beck target--Van Jones recently resigned his White House post, lots of news outlets noted the boycott. But how many news outlets have mentioned just how many advertisers have pulled their dollars from Glenn Beck? How many news outlets in recent days and weeks have detailed that more than three, then four, and now five dozen advertisers have jettisoned the program?
Pretty much zero.
At least I can't find any on Nexis/Lexis. The New York Times, for instance, hasn't touched the unfolding story since August 14, when the paper reported that Glenn Beck had lost "about a dozen" advertisers, a boycott tally the Times described back then as "unusually successful."
Well, since then the boycott tally has increased five times. Since then, advertising and media history have been made this summer, but the Times, whose newsroom normally obsesses over the intersection of politics and media, has remained dutifully mum on the still-unfolding story.
More than five dozen advertisers have walked away from Glenn Beck. But the press couldn't care less.
Wilson's hateful and unhinged outburst wasn't' really that bad, writes Parker, because members of Congress have always done rude things while presidents address Congress, like when Sen. John McCain was caught napping during one of Bush's speeches.
I'm not kidding. That's what Parker wrote.
Do false equivalencies come any more lame than that? Indeed they do, because Parker's just getting started. She also notes that Hillary Clinton once wore a nasty expression on her face when Bush spoke to Congress, which let's face it, is just like calling interrupting the President of the United States on national television and calling him a liar. (And, of course, lying about him being a liar.)
It gets even worse. Parker then goes back and simply reinvents history by claiming that Democrats were "booing and heckling Bush throughout his 2005 address."
Parker here is flat out lying here. Go watch the clip of Democrats allegedly "booing and heckling Bush" in 2005, which conservatives eagerly posting on the Internet yesterday. See for yourself what a joke it is to suggest the Democratic groans that arose when Bush was fear mongering about the state of Social Security, were the same as Wilson's clarion and unhinged "Your lie!" outburst.
And a personal challenge to Parker: Please substantiate your claim that the so-called "booing and heckling" of Bush in 2005 lasted throughout his 2005 address. Not even the factually-challenged right-wing blogosphere is making that preposterous claim.
UPDATED: Parker just plays massively dumb throughout the column [emphasis added]:
South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson seems to have set a precedent Wednesday night when he called the president a liar during a joint session of Congress. That's the official word from House deputy historian Fred Beuttler, who says that though cheering and jeering between parties are commonplace, a single individual seldom steals the floor.
Why the "seems"? Parker quotes a House historian who says nobody's done what Wilson did. But since her point is to pretend the "You lie!" was no big deal, Parker suggests it might have not been so novel.
First, it was Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank accusing a Democratic member of congress of making a "fascist salute" to Barack Obama in an effort to "balance" his criticism of unruly House Republicans. Now, Politico offers an even more absurd example of "both sides do it."
In an article about the Republican Party being overrun by nutty claims like Sarah Palin's false "Death Panels" allegations, the Birther nonsense, and conservatives claiming Barack Obama was going to "indoctrinate" schoolchildren, Politico drops in this doozy of a "to be sure" paragraph:
Nor are Democrats strangers to having their crazy uncles take center stage. During the run-up to the Iraq war, for example, Reps. Jim McDermott (D-Wash.), Mike Thompson (D-Calif.) and David Bonior (D-Mich.) famously flew to Baghdad, where McDermott asserted that he believed the president would "mislead the American public" to justify the war. The trip made it a cakewalk for critics to describe the Democratic Party as chock-a-block with traitorous radicals.
Got that? Saying George W. Bush would "mislead the American public" in order to justify the Iraq war is the stuff of "crazy uncles" who are easily described as "traitorous radicals." It's on par with accusing President Obama of wanting to create "Death Panels" to kill off the old and the young, and of having been born in Kenya. Except that, you know ... George W. Bush did mislead the country to justify the war. Other than that, they're virtually the same thing.
Oh, and Jim McDermott was as significant a figure in the Democratic Party as Sarah Palin is in the GOP. Right.
The fact that Beltway media like the Politico still think that it is a baseless, fringe position to say George Bush lied his way into Iraq speaks volumes.

With names like "Summer of Love" and "Cosmos," it's hard to deny Sondra Alexander's self-proclaimed creative and free-spirit nature that shines through her work. While playing up the eccentricities of all that nature has to offer, Sondra also manages to bring her modern vibe to the table.

4.65/5 rDev +22.4%
Great beers from a great brewer. This is my favorite Pale Ale to which all others are compared for me. Other microbrew pales are missing something that Cumberland has. The smell is wonderfully hoppy and it's a nice reddish color. Mouthfeel is full and well, taste and drinkability are the best I've had. Matt brews two of my absolute favorite beers (see Nitro Porter)and they are consistent each time I come to Louisville and sample them. Nearest to it is Goose Island or Great Lakes. Nothing beats the fresh-from-the-tap Pale Ale.

Very tastey, I had the pale ale with a veggie pizza. The combo was good together. Also had a pitcher after we finished off the pizza. The pale ale washed the pallet very well. Who needs dessert when you have a great beer. I'm not good at reviewing a beer, but I know what tastes good to me. I perfer an ale over a stout. Being diabectic, I don't suppose to drink beer, but I will have a good pale beer to take care of my beer erges. I would love to drink beer more, my body won't let me and have good glucose readings. But I do love beer. Can't drink beer like I use to. Cumberland's pale ale is smooth, and crisp in taste. I usaully pair the beer with food like pizza, fish or a juicey burger.

I purchased a growler of this at our nearby Party Town in Florence, KY. I was luck enough to try this beer as soon after I got my growler, the beer was taken off rotation. Nice copper color to this beer. Definately had a grapefruit presence as well as some potential nut flavoring (can't definitively speak on this as I'm recovering from a cold so my palate may have been off). Nice lacing in the glassw. Starts out sweet and then has a nice bitterneess that follows. Drinkability is high which is nice since i went with a growler.

Sampled on tap at Cumberland on 3-19-05. Arrives a deep orange amber color with a bubbly head on top. A nice sweet citric hop nose with hints of oranges and grapefruits. There's a nice sweet malt nose as well.
First sip brings a vibrant citric hoppiness upfront along with a pale, slightly caramelly malt. Orange, grapefruit and a hint of lemon with a nice sturdy malt backbone. Just a damn good APA that impressed me quite a bit.
Smooth, medium bodied mouthfeel ..lively and easy to drink. I could have easily sat down to a few of these. Thanks to kmpitz2 for bringing me here and I hope to get back to sample some more of their brews in the future.

This came to the table a dark red-brown color. Much darker than I expected a pale ale to be. It was cloudy and had a thin head that did not last very long at all. I could definitely smell the hop and citrus aroma once I got the beer in front of me. Upon putting my nose up to the beer the most notable characteristic was grapefruit backed by hops. The taste was also dominated by grapefruit, but there were hops definitely present, just not as powerful as the grapefruit. There was some sweetness to it that kept it from being only tart grapefruit and bitter hops and did a great job to somewhat counterbalance the sharpness of the grapefruit and hops.
I was quite surprised at the dominance of the grapefruit in this beer, thinking that perhaps it was more of a fruit beer style. I don't know if this really fits in perfectly as an APA because what seemed to be the most important part of the beer was grapefruit taste, but with that being said... I loved this beer. They really nailed what I'm looking for in a good hop bitterness and grapefruit tartness dominating but not overwhelming the malty sweetness. The grapefruit dominates, but definitely in a good way. I don't know how many of these I could have in a row since one left my mouth with a strong grapefruit flavor, but I will definitely have another when I go back.

Served on tap at Cumberland Brews in Louisville, KY.
A: Pours a crustal clear amber to copper in color with some light orange hints. The beer has a half finger tall creamy light beige head that reduces to a thin film covering the surface of the beer and a ring at the edges of the glass. Light amounts of lacing are observed.
S: There are aromas of caramel malts with a little bit of sweetness as well as moderate notes of pine/resin and citrus hops.
T: The taste follows the smell, starting with a caramel malt body with some light amounts of sweetness. Then the hop flavors kick in - pine/resin and citrus hops.
M: Medium bodied with light to moderate amounts of carbonations. Slightly sticky/oily.
O: This is a very enjoyable pale ale that I found pretty easy to drink. A little too strong to be sessionable but definitely a beer I could have more than one of... just not more than two or three.

A: Deep orange/amber color. Poured a coarse off-white 1 finger head with fair retention. Inconsistent lacing.
S: Sweet, bready malt. Citryw and grapefruit hops.
T: Citrus peel and grapefruit hops up front. Pale malts and slightly sweet crystal malt. A little resiny, but sharply bitter finishes balances nicely.
M: Medium body. Moderate to ample carbonation. Fairly smooth, balanced and clean.
D: Very drinkable. Flavor and balance along with moderate ABVmake it sessionable.

As I'm sure you can tell by the order of these reviews, I split a growler of this stuff with clvand0 and SheepNutz. The beer poured a nice golden color, with minimal head. Off the tap, this beer had a decent one finger of head. The nose was a nice balance between the lightly citrus hops and the caramel sweetness in the malt. The flavor brought much of the same. The hop was good and not to strong, lingering just a bit after swallowing the beer. This beer was a moderately thick one. I really enjoyed it better off the tap than in the growler, but somewhere along the way, the top became loose and I lost all the carbonation in the growler. Boo hiss. This was my third favorite from the brewery, but I would definately get it again.

3.9/5 rDev +2.6%
A: Pours a ruddy amber with subtle orange highlights and a creamy white head that sticks around far longer than expected.
S: Huge aromas of pine, spruce, and citrus bludgeon the nose. Once the ale settles down a bit, subtle scents of caramel, cream, crackers, and biscuits become just barely noticeable.
T: Opens in a bitter, sticky manner with notes of grass, peppermint, bitter orange, lemon, grapefruit, pine, and spruce attacking the palate. Notes of caramel, cream, minerals, crackers, and biscuits briefly make their presence known around mid-palate before they are drowned out by strong flavors of pine, spruce, orange, lemon, and grapefruit.
M: Medium-bodied, gently carbonated, and very resinous. It's not really a quaffing pale ale, but it isn't exactly a sipper either.
O: This is a good hop-driven American pale ale that goes particularly well with most of the entrees available at the pub. It may not be the most complex example of the style that one will run across, but it gets the job done. Definitely worth seeking out if you fancy yourself a hop head.

A- 4 Nice clear copper color. Minimal white head but very sticky, lingering lacing.
S- 3.5 Light hops and citrus (grapefruit). A very mild malty scent. Overall, it's inviting but not very strong.
T- 4 Malty dry hop taste. Less citrus, if any, than expected from the scent. This is much milder, maltier, and sweeter than I'd expect from a pale ale, but it's a good taste nonetheless.
M- 4 Great level of carbonation in this medium bodied brew. Slightly syrupy and dry finish. Goes down pretty smoothly.
D- 4 Overall a pretty easy-to-drink beer. Its dryness makes me want to keep sipping it. It isn't heavy and has a good enough flavor that I could enjoy several at a time. Nothing knocks your socks off, but another good offering from Cumberland of the 'Ville.

Dark red or light brown in color. The head is a bit wispy with only a little lacing, but when getting a beer on tap to your table its always possible it settled. Cumberland Brews isn't a big place, but I didn't pay attention to whether the beer sat on a tray for a bit. In any event, there isn't much head. The nose is a bit hoppy and pleasant. The attack is smooth with the presence of the hops that the nose signalled revealing itself towards the end of the flavor. The mouthfeel is very full with the texture and presence provided by the hops, but its pretty mild flavor wise. Its been a while since I had a beer act this way in my mouth. The beer finishes dry with a mild aftertaste.

Poured from a growler into a thistle glass. It pours a slightly hazy orange color with one finger of head. There is just a little bit of lacing. The smell is slightly sweet, with a little bit of citrus fruit. The taste has a lot of fruity flavors. Some sweet orange with a floral and grapefruit hop finish. The mouthfeel is nice and strong. The drinkability is good as well. Not too shabby, and I look forward to trying more of thier brews!

Presentation: On tap at Irish Rover Too in LaGrange, KY. I so often travel through here for work and cant' have a beer; it is nice to finally sample some of the offerings. Served in an Imperial pint glass.
Appearance: Thin cap of light tan head; sticks around for most of the beer and leaves a ring of foam and lacing. The beer itself is deep reddish amber and hazy to the point you can't see through it.
Smell: Semi sweet malt on the nose with strong notes of caramel and hints of piney hops.
Taste: Taste is strong resiny hops against a solid backbone of semi sweet malt. Long, lingering hops in the finish.
Mouthfeel: Average carbonation and good body.
Drinkability: A solid well crafted beer that I could certainly have more often if it were available in my area.

This beer has a nice brown/yellow/orange color with moderate head and appropriate lacing. The smell is very balanced - you get bitter and sweet in a very close harmony (minor 2nd?).
Very impressive flavor from this beer, right from the onset. It starts off very fresh tasting - like a combination of a vodka tonic and an orange slice. Then the flavor focuses into a sweet hops, bitter finish.

Pint at the source.
Reddish brown, with a half inch head that sticks around for a bit but getting smaller and smaller as the pint is drank down. A little bit of lacing too.
Opens with a piney and resin hop aroma, with some biscuit and cracker like quality. A touch of breadyness and possibly some rye in this one as well.
Nothing but pine and that biscuity some what cracker like malt flavor on your tongue. A hint of spicy rye or something in there as well, hard to put your finger on and I don't believe there is any rye in this beer but it is showing characteristics of it. A pretty bold tasting pale ale.
A little sticky and medium body, with low carbonation.
A real pine and resin driven pale ale with some bready and biscuit like qualities in it. A good beer, but not my favorite at this brewery. Definitely not bad, but not exactly what I look for in a pale ale.

This beer arrived at my table with little/no head. It was a cloudy amber and surprisingly dark (but lighter than my friends nut brown ale). The aroma was mild, fresh, and pleasant.
The taste was hoppy, not complex. Citrus with mild bitterness, malts in the background. Mild carbonation, thin mouthfeel.
Good drinkability. A refreshing meal beer. I'll order it again.

A friend brought a growler of this over - the growler was not adequately sealed, therefore the carbonation was all but gone. Pours an orange color with a small head that dies off quickly. The aroma has a definate fruity hop character and a little sweetness as well. The flavor has some citrus as well as a nice hop presence. This is a quite good pale ale and I would have it again.

Glycoyrrhiza uralensis, or Asian Licorice, is a legume native to central Asia, China, and Japan. The root has been used in traditional medicine throughout Asia and the Middle East for thousands of years. In China, licorice is second in popularity only to ginseng and written record of it's use goes back as far as 3,000 years. It was used to treat wounds, strengthen bones, and promote muscle growth.
Licorice root has historically been used for a wide range of ailments from respiratory distress to digestive irritation and is still popular today in herbal remedies for boosting the immune system, improving mental functions, and countering stress, among numerous uses. Botanical researchers have analyzed licorice and identified many active compounds.
A key compound, glycyrrhizin, is responsible for licorice's distinctive sweetness. The genus name "Glycyrrhiza" means "sweet root" in Greek, but most licorice candy today is flavored with anise instead.

ANZ exec freeze prepares staff for pay painPUBLISHED: 18 Aug 2012 00:04:45 | UPDATED: 18 Aug 2012 02:50:08PUBLISHED: 18 Aug 2012 PRINT EDITION: 18 Aug 2012
Michael Smith
Australia & New Zealand Banking Group chief Mike Smith's decision to freeze the base salaries of his top executives is largely a symbolic gesture as he prepares the bank's wider workforce for lower pay growth this year.
Smith's fixed pay last year was $3.15 million out of total remuneration of $9.7 million and he will continue to be entitled to performance-linked bonuses this year even with his base salary on ice.
By joining Ian Narev at Commonwealth Bank in freezing executive pay, Smith is trying to send out the right message to staff and customers in a climate where the banks are under greater pressure to justify higher salaries than ever before.
British-born Smith knows the importance of insulating ANZ against the reputational damage hurting banks in his homeland.
The entire financial services sector is now experiencing a slow deflation of salaries which reflects lower returns since the global financial crisis.
While anyone who takes a good look at the company's annual report will realise the move announced Friday will not make much of a dent in his take-home pay, it does give Smith the moral high ground ahead of delicate negotiations with the Finance Sector Union.
The salary freeze applies to anyone at ANZ earning around $150,000 to $200,000 a year or more and is in line with what CBA announced last month. The bank will continue to pay for performance, however.
It is the second year running that senior salaries have been frozen and when you take into account a similar decision in 2008 and Australia's inflation rate, this equates to a cut in real salaries at the bank's upper ranks by around 10 per cent in recent years.
Commonwealth Bank has offered to increase the pay of workers covered by its enterprise bargaining agreement by a maximum 3.5 per cent in the 2013 financial year, less than the 4 per cent increase in 2012.
A similar process for ANZ, which needs to negotiate a new pay deal from September, is unlikely to match the 4 to 4.5 per cent rise of last year.
Bank executives consider Commonwealth Bank's 3.5 per cent rise a more realistic figure in the current environment and ANZ staff can expected to be offered something similar. This will not please the Finance Sector Union which is pushing for an increase of around 5 per cent.
Pay cuts have been a prominent theme for corporate Australia going into earnings season. Fund manager Perpetual's chairman Peter Scott recently agreed to a 42 per cent pay cut, Rio Tinto, BHP Billiton and BlueScope Steel chief executives are also forgoing bonuses and struggling PaperlinX has slashed senior wages.
Expect more chief executives to fall on their salary swords this year as pressure grows from investors, frustrated with their own diminishing returns, for executive salaries to be more representative of shareholder returns.
For financial services, though, it is also a public relations exercise to try and cushion the political bank bashing, and the customer backlash from not passing on the Reserve Bank's interest rate cuts in full.
While Australian banks have nothing like the problems Barclays, Standard Chartered and others face in the UK, Smith said yesterday he recognised there is bound to be some spillover effect from the damage to the reputation of banking globally.
From a customer satisfaction perspective, ANZ has not done itself any favours by divorcing itself from the Reserve Bank's cash rate decisions.
While the logic behind the move to make monthly announcements on interest rates on a fixed date instead of chasing the RBA's official announcements made sense, it has made it tougher to compete against aggressive campaigns by National Australia Bank and CBA to woo retail customers.
However, things could be looking up. ANZ's local net interest margins have shown signs of recovery in the third quarter and its share of traditional banking is up from 13.1 per cent in June last year to 13.8 per cent by end-June 2012, according to Roy Morgan data.
Smith was quick to boast there were no surprises in yesterday's third quarter results.
"Boring is the new black," he joked and he's right. Investors love dull in today's volatile trading environment. Posting a so-so result on a day when the wider market was up also helped the perception ANZ is doing all the right things.
The bank has notched up the highest quarterly growth of the big banks so far, although analysts say the market is factoring in negative growth for the final quarter.
Smith continues to differentiate himself from the other big four by pushing ahead with his super-regional Asia strategy despite a recent slowdown in the region.
There are some niggling concerns about the bank's Tier 1 capital ratio, which sits at 7.8 per cent.
While this is broadly in line with Commonwealth Bank, there is an argument that ANZ should have a bit more in the kitty, considering its ambitious plans for Asia.
Smith says he is comfortable where the bank sits at the moment, although he concedes there is logic in having a buffer in place.
Smith is not a believer of building up war chests but he will go to equity markets to raise funding if he does a big acquisition in Asia.
Companies that disappoint in the dividend department have been put on notice this earnings season.
The market is understandably obsessed with yield at the moment given the lack of earnings growth so it is not surprising that shares in insurer QBE took a hit yesterday when it cut its interim dividend to 40¢ per share from 62¢ a year ago.
While QBE flagged a dividend cut in January, it highlights the market's focus on shareholder returns even if it comes at the expense of missing out on real growth opportunities elsewhere. This has also inflated high-yield stocks such as the big banks and Telstra.
Goldman Sachs estimates that 22 per cent of stocks have beaten dividend per share expectations so far this earnings season, compared with 24 per cent last year. Stocks beating dividend forecasts are on average outperforming the market on results day by 7.2 per cent.
As a result boards are doing everything in their power to sustain dividends, even if it means increasing payout ratios. This has been the case with Stockland and GWA Group, which have indicated they may move above or to the top end of their payout ratios of 75 to 85 per cent and 80 to 85 per cent respectively.
Solid results from the major banks have not been enough to lift the corporate mood as earnings season heads into its final big week.
The chasm between analysts' earnings forecasts and reality still beggars belief.
Earnings growth forecasts of around 15 per cent are being pared back to around zero.
Matthew Stevens is away.

Luis Suarez could be on his way to Real Madrid in a £60 million swap that would see Karim Benzema move to Anfield, reports the Metro.
The recently anointed Premier League Player of the Year was widely expected to make the move last summer, but signed a lucrative long-term contract at Anfield, as reported by Chris Bascombe of The Telegraph.
The Metro reported the news on Saturday:
Real president Florentino Perez wants to add a big name Galactico forward to the squad next term to compete on all fronts, and Suarez has been made the number one choice.
According to reports in Spain, Madrid will open the bidding at £60million before the World Cup starts in five weeks time, but could go even higher to get their man.
Perez has made a habit of luring the Premier League's top stars to the Bernebeu each season. And following the success of Gareth Bale and Luka Modric in Spain, the Madrid president's taste for English fare shows no sign of abating.
Would Karim Benzema be a success at Liverpool?
That will be no consolation to Brendan Rodgers, whose title-challenging Liverpool side has been carefully assembled with the Uruguayan as its fulcrum. Suarez has blossomed into one of the world's finest strikers in his time at Anfield, bagging 31 goals this term. Such has been his progress that his captain Steven Gerrard now places him above Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in the world pecking order, as reported by The Independent.
For that reason, it would be a near-impossible task to find a like-for-like replacement, as Tottenham have discovered to their detriment this season following the sale of Bale.
But French forward Karim Benzema moving to Liverpool as part of the deal could go some way to placating the Anfield faithful. Benzema has been linked with Liverpool before, as reported by the Metro, and his form in La Liga this season has not gone unnoticed.
With 17 goals at the head of the Ronaldo-Bale attack, it has been a profitable campaign for the Frenchman.
But Benzema is not in the same class as Suarez.
Nevertheless, Benzema would be welcomed on Merseyside. Built like a prize bull and with searing pace, he brings all the attributes necessary to cut a swathe through the rough and tumble of the Premier League. But, make no bones about it, he is no Suarez, and should the diminutive forward make the switch to the Spanish capital, Rodgers' side would be a poorer one for it.
Rodgers already appears to be preparing for life without Suarez, with Sky Sports reporting a move for Southampton's Adam Lallana could be made before the World Cup. The Englishman's star continues to rise, and he is likely to be a key man in Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad.
Coming up from 6am – we've got more on the news that Liverpool will make a bid to sign Southampton's Adam Lallana before the World Cup— Sky Sports News (@SkySportsNews) May 9, 2014
Rodgers was coy when questioned about a move for Lallana:
I saw the reports, but I would never, ever mention another player at another club.
Adam is a terrific young talent but it's purely speculation and, for us, there is always speculation about top young players.
This season has marked Lallana's real breakthrough campaign in the Premier League, with him notching nine strikes and six assists in 38 appearances so far, per WhoScored.com. Though, much like Benzema, he could not replicate the unpredictability and genius of Suarez.
Yet this is where Brendan Rodgers earns his corn. One of the game's foremost proponents of team play, Rodgers has been loathe to place a disproportionate burden on one player before, and should Suarez leave for Madrid he will take the money, buy young talent and start building again.

Final float-In of Memorial Bridge completed early Monday morning
The center span of the Memorial Bridge was floated into place aboard the barge Cape Cod from the New Hampshire State Pier just after 1 a.m. Monday. (Gretyl Macalaster/Union Leader Correspondent)
Around 1:15 a.m. the center span of the lift bridge was floated downriver from the New Hampshire State Pier aboard the barge Cape Cod and guided by several tugboats. The span was floated through the north and south fixed spans of the bridge and spun around just downriver of the bridge. Over the course of the morning, it will be guided into place with about five to six inches of clearance on each side. It will be placed atop two temporary pedestals before the barge is removed.
The river channel will be closed through 1 a.m. on June 22 as the counterweight cables are connected to the span and tested.
It is the last major milestone for the bridge before it opens in July.
"It's exciting because it is one step closer to getting the project completed," said Denis Switzer, contract administrator with the New Hampshire Department of Transportation. "We are within striking distance."
He said he would have expected more people to turn out for the float-in. Crowds were small compared to some of the other major milestones associated with the highly visible project, including the float-out of the old center span on a bitterly cold February morning in 2012.
"I'm personally disappointed because it has been such a community event, there has been so much interest and so many people here, it feels like they just come out of the woodwork," Switzer said.
He referred to the float-in as the "second most dramatic" event that will take place in the construction of the new bridge.
"The first will be when we open it to traffic," he said.
Many of those who did turn out said they came to watch history happen.
"It is just a historic thing. We'll never see it again," Henry Whitney of South Berwick, Maine, said from the Portsmouth side where he watched the event with his brother, Stan, of Portsmouth. Their brother, George, was watching from the Kittery side.
Henry Whitney said seeing the center span in place will give people confidence that the project is really going to be done on schedule.
Amanda Buckley of Eliot, Maine, watched the float-in from the deck at One Harbour Place with her two children, Nevaeh, 4, and Jackson, 6.
"They were just really excited about the bridge. We live in Eliot and we love coming on this bridge when it is nice out to go to all the downtown places," Buckley said.
Wayne and Carolyn Gardner traveled from York, Maine, to witness the event.
"I find it amazing the detail to their work. The team really needs to be proud of the work they've done and the time they've done it in," Carolyn Gardner said.
The old bridge was closed for good in January 2012.
