Mitchell Grayson, MD, associate professor of pediatrics (allergy and immunology), medicine, microbiology and molecular genetics at the Medical College of Wisconsin, and an investigator at the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin Research Institute, was elected to the prestigious American Society for Clinical Investigation at the Society's annual meeting April 26 in Chicago.
Dr. Grayson, who is a practicing pediatric allergist at Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, has conducted extensive, nationally-renowned research into the immunological mechanisms that lead to allergic disease. He focuses specifically on how viral infections translate into allergic disease and asthma (how a viral infection can lead to lifelong allergic disease). His group was the first to identify key cells involved in that process, and to explain how exposure to nonviral antigens (such as environmental proteins) during a viral infection can lead to an allergic response against the nonviral antigens.
The American Society for Clinical Investigation (ASCI), established in 1908, is one of the nation's oldest and most respected medical honor societies.
The ASCI comprises more than 3,000 physician-scientists from all medical specialties elected to the Society for their outstanding records of scholarly achievement in biomedical research. The ASCI represents active physician-scientists who are at the bedside, at the research bench, and at the blackboard. Many of its senior members are widely recognized leaders in academic medicine. New members must be 45 years of age or younger at the time of their election.

Anderson, Arkansas intent on reaching NCAA tourney
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) Mike Anderson still won't say the words "NCAA tournament" when talking about Arkansas' expectations.
The Razorbacks' coach, however, left little doubt Tuesday on the first day of practice that reaching the school's first NCAA tournament since 2008 is the goal this season.
"This is our best team," Anderson said. "We want to make it a very special year."

Yawns are also somewhat of a phenomena ndash theyrsquore contagious, sometimes theyrsquore a reflex and uncontrollable, yet other times we can forcefully yawn at will.

I am still married to my husband but he is not economically helping with his daughter he sometimes sends a very little amount of money and forgets about his daughter for many months i was deported after being raised in the united states back to Colombia i had not done anything bad at all but my parents werent able to get paperwork in order so i was deported. We agreed ?(my husband and i ) that i would take my daughter well i have always been the one taking care of her in everyway now he called me one day and said he had received 4000 dollars of income tax returns because he filed stating he was supporting my daughter he bought a car with the money it makes me angry that he is using this money without having to help out with his daughter i dont know what i can do about it. thank you!
You listed Vero Beach as your posting city, but I'll assume you posted from Colombia, which is where you are currently living with your daughter. You could probably file for divorce in Colombia, then have a child support order enforced in Florida, and you should probably ask a Colombian lawyer about that, but that's probably an expensive way to go, and I'll bet your child support would be less than if you filed for support in Florida.
You wouldn't qualify to file for divorce in Florida, since you don't live here and aren't a citizen and resident of Florida, so that's not an option.
It is possible to file for legal separation in Florida (technically it's called "Support Unconnected with Dissolution") without being a Florida resident. You can't get "legally separated" with this type of lawsuit because Florida doesn't allow that, but you can get child support and even alimony. You should speak to a Florida lawyer about it, because, in your case, it's a little complicated.
I take it that you are still in Colombia? You will need to hire a lawyer in the county in which your husband resides. If your husband still lives in the United States, you can get a divorce in Florida and get a child support award. You will need a lawyer though to help you.

Created: 06/09/2014 7:40 AM KAALtv.com
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama is signing an executive order that lets borrowers pay no more than 10 percent of their monthly income in student loan payments.
The measure expands on a 2010 law that covered those who started borrowing after October 2007 and kept borrowing after October 2011. The executive order allows those who borrowed earlier to participate, potentially extending the benefit to millions more borrowers.
Obama will sign the order Monday during an event in the White House Rose Garden. The president will also use the appearance to call for Congress to pass more sweeping legislation that would let college graduates with heavy debts refinance their loans.
The Senate is expected to debate the legislation next week, but it faces significant obstacles.

Oh, really?
Best Uses
To try it out, bought a 4 pak @ $1.97 + tax today due to all the publicity CR got going for it and used it (almost) right away!

Are you kidding me? This is so narrow. It's not the worst toilet paper I've used but I'm far from recommending it. I guess the quality dropped once their sales went up after CR's testing. The rolls are so poorly cut and look so bad out of their wrap that I would not put them in my guest bathroom!

Unfortunately, this isn't the first time I've purchased and then was fully disappointed after CR's testing. By the time the test results are published, there's such a gap that the product they test may not be the same as the one on sale.

I was using Kirkland for a long time but their quality dropped too. However, lately they also started offering a much better but more pricey version of their bath tissue that is very good and beats this White Cloud nonsense.
How long have you owned it:
A month or less
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Different paper and smaller rolls

BEWARE - The tissue count on a roll had decreased from 200 to 176. Worse, the quality of the paper being used (9/14) is far less soft and tears easier.

OPTICAL o \J ANALYZER 3. FINE GRAIN x H FERROELECTRIC PbLARlZER CERAMIC FINE GRAIN POLYCRYSTALLINE FETIROELECTRIC CERAMIC OPTICAL SHIJTTER FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to the field of electrical communication systems, in particular those utilizing ferroelectric devices.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Many types of optical shutters (light gates") have been used in the prior art of optical communication systems. The use of ferroelectric materials in the optical shutter gives rise to the possibility of an optical shutter with a memory atch relay light gate" or switch").
For example, suppose a beam of light propagating in the Cartesian z direction is linearly polarized at an angle of 45 with respect to the x axis by means of a polarizer and this polarized beam is incident upon a ferroelectric plate whose electric dipole moment is permanently" (remanently) polarized in the y direction. Assuming that the thickness of the plate is such that the retardation corresponding to the value of the remanent polarization of the plat e i s an eyen rt urn ber of half wave lengths, the emitted light beam is still linearly polarized along the x axis. Thus, an analyzer set at 90 (crossed) with respect to the polarizer will extinguish the light beam. The system is said to be in the OFF" state. Now, if the ferroelectric can be switched, by an applied voltage pulse for example, into a different state of polarization which presents a different birefringence to the incident light beam, then the analyzer will no longer extinguish the light beam. The system is then said to be in the ON" state. Thus, the system would provide a simple optical shutter with a memory.
However, ordinary'ferroelectric crystals can be switched with a single voltage pulse only from a first state of remanent polarization in one direction into a second state of remanent polarization in the opposite direction. Since these two states of remanent polarization present the same birefringence to the light beam, such crystals cannot be used in the simple optical shutter system described above, unless a rather complex and carefully controlled multiple sequence of voltage pulses is applied to the ferroelectric crystal. Such a sequence of voltage pulses requires rather complex and expensive control circuitry.
C. E. Land has discovered that a thin plate of lead zirconate-lead titanate ceramic behaves as a uniaxial crystal when poled in some particular direction. The birefringence of the plate has been found to vary approximately as the square of the remanent polarization. Therefore, if the polarization can be varied between zero and saturation, a maximum change in birefringence and hence optical phase retardation can be obtained. This change, as mentioned before, is not easily obtained with single crystal materials.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION We have discovered that the switching characteristics of fine grain (i.e., approximately 2 micron or less in grain size) ferroelectric ceramics differ significantly from the switching characteristics of ferroelectric single crystals (e.g., barium titanate, triglycine sulphate): and that the remanent polarization of a fine grain ceramic plate can be switched from a first state of remanent polarization to a second state of a different remanent polarization (including zero average polarization) by simply applying a voltage pulse of controlled magnitude. Moreover, the value of the remanent polarization remaining in the fine grain ferroelectric ceramic subsequent to an applied voltage pulse depends only upon the height of the pulse and not upon the width of the pulse. so long as this width exceeds a certain value, typically 1 millisecond. Thus, since the first and second intermediate states ofthe fine grain ferroelectric ceramic present different degrees of birefringence to an incident light beam propagating in the z direction, a simply constructed latch relay type of light switch can be fabricated with this type of ceramic in conjunction with "crossed" polarizers and analyzers. A variable phase retarder can also similarly be constructed therefrom. provided the polarization is established by appropriate electric fields at variable intermediate polarization states.
In a particular embodiment of this invention, a fine grain ferroelectric ceramic plate is chosen consisting of 65 percent lead zirconate and 35 percent lead titanate by weight with 2 atomic percent lanthanum added as lanthanum oxide (PZT 65/35"% La). After suitable preparation including prepoling of the crystal, as described in detail below, metallic electrodes o f indiu rr t are deposited on one major surface of the ceramic. This ceramic is placed between a crossed polarizer and analyzer pair. A beam of light is incident upon the polarizer and is transmitted through the ceramic plate and the analyzer. Advantageously, the thickness of the ceramic and the orientation thereof is selected such that the optical path difference between the ordinary and extraordinary rays (if equal intensity) propagating through the ceramic is an integral number of wave lengths after a sufficiently long and strong pulse of voltage applied to the electrode has carried the fine grain ferroelectric ceramic into a state of maximum (saturated) remanent polarization. At this time. the analyzer extinguishes the beam of the light and the system is said to be in the OFF condition. At a preselected time, another voltage pulse of suitable height and width. but of opposite algebraic sign from the previous pulse. is applied to the electrodes: Thereafter the ferroelectric ceramic is in a state of zero average remanent polarization and presents a different optical path difference for the ordinary and extraordinary rays propagating therethrough. Thus, the light beam emerges from the ceramic elliptically polarized, in general. Therefore, some of this light passes through the analyzer and is collected for utilization by a photomultiplier. Thus. the system furnishes a latch relay type of optical shutter.
Advantageously, the OFF condition is characterized by a smaller amount of light scattering than the condition. in order to achieve a greater ON-OFF ratio. This can be obtained by selecting the thickness of the ceramic such that in the OFF condition the state of polarization thereof corresponds to the smaller amount of scattering. thereby yielding an OFF condition which is characterized by more nearly perfect extinction of the light beam by the analyzer.
This invention. together with its advantages. features, and objects may be better understood from a reading of the following detailed description in conjunction with the drawing in which:
FIG. I shows a latch relay optical shutter system including a fine grain ferroelectric ceramic plate according to this invention:
FIG. 2 shows a plot of voltage pulse inputs to the ceramic to explain a mode of operation of the system shown in FIG. I; and
FIG. 3 shows a plot of ON-OFF intensity ratios obtained in a particular mode of operation ofa particular embodiment of the optical shutter system shown in FIG. 1.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION As shown in FIG. I, an optical source ll such as a Helium-Neon laser furnishes a beam of unpolarized light propagating in the 3 direction. A polarizer 12 transmits only that plane of electric polarization of the beam which makes an angle of 45 with both the .r and the y axes. The beam then passes through a fine grain ferroelectric ceramic plate l3. An input voltage pulse signal V from a pulse voltage source 14 is supplied across a major surface l3A ofthe ceramic plate 13 by means of aluminum electrodes ISA and 158 in physical contact with indium electrodes I6A and 16B. Thelight emerging from the ceramic plate 13 traverses an analyzer l7 which is set at an angle of (crossed) with respect to the polarizer [2. Then the light is collected for utilization by a photomultiplier I8.
As shown in FIG. 2, a first pulse of height V. and duration Ar is applied by the pulse voltage source 14 to the electrodes 15A and ISB. The electric field in the y direction created thereby in the ceramic plate 13 between thq electrodes 16A and 16B switches this plate 13 into a first state of maximum average remanent polarization. Some arbitrarily prescribed time later, a second pulse of height V and duration At: is applied to the plate 13 by the pulse source 14; thereafter the plate 13 is in a second state of zero average remanent polarization. The birefringence property of the plate 13 in the first state differs of course from that in the second state. The thickness of the ceramic plate 13 is selected such that, in the OFF condition wherein the ceramic plate is in the first state of maximum average polarization, the birefringence of this plate 13 causes the plane of polarization of the light beam to be rotated" by 180 orintegral multiple thereof (i.e., an even number of half wavelengths retardation). In this OFF condition, the analyzer l7 extinguishes the light beam with minimum background due to scattering in the ceramic plate 13.
In the second state of polarization of the ceramic plate 13, i.e., subsequent to the second pulse V the light beam is at least partially transmitted by the analyzer t7 and is collected for utilization by the photomultiplier I8.
The fine grain ferroelectric ceramic l3, forexample PZT 65/35 -2 percent La. of nominal grain size of approximately 1 micron as obtained from Clevite Corporation, is initially in the form of disks about 9.5 mm. in diameter and 0.38 mm. thick. The disks are lapped to a final thickness of 37 microns with the final lapping providing an optical polish to both sides. The thin disks are sliced into the shape of rectangles about X2.5 mm. and annealed in air at 700 C. for minutes. They are then cooled slowly through the Curie point (330 C.) to avoid thermal shock. Two aluminum electrodes 15A and ISB are evaporated on one face of the rectangularly shaped fine grain ceramic plate 13, spaced apart to form a gap of about 1.5 mm. therebetween. The rectangular plate 13 is then prepoled by applying a field of about kv./cm. at an elevated temperature of about 150 C. Finally, indium electrodes l6A and 16B are evaporated on the same face of the plate 13 as the aluminum electrodes 15A and 158 to be in contact respectively thereto, as shown in FIG. I, leaving a gap of about 125 ,u. along a channel 1 mm. wide. The finished samples are mounted on Teflon holders (not shown), which serve to reduce leakage currents between connecting leads and to furnish mechanical support.
FIG. 2 shows a typical plot of V vs. time, where V is the input voltage applied to the electrodes 15A and 158, in a particular mode of operation of the system shown in FIG. 1. Typically, the pulse V, has a height of about 300 volts and a width Ar, of I millisecond or more; whereas the pulse V; has a height of 150 volts and a width A2 also of l millisecond or more. In the aribitrarily prescribed time interval between the pulses V, and V2, the system pictured in FIG. I is in the OFF condition and the light beam is extinguished by the analyzer 17; whereas subsequent to the pulse V: the system is in the ON condition and the light beam is partially transmitted by the analyzer 17. Thus, the system shown in FIG. I, as operated with the input voltage shown in FIG. 2, furnishes a latch relay type of optical shutter.
It should be understood that a compensator (not shown), of the Babinet-Soeil type for example, can be placed anywhere between the polarizer 12 and the analyzer 17. This compensator, as known in the art. is useful for obtaining any amount of additional bias to the birefringent path encountered by the light beam.
Using the system shown in FIG. I in the mode of operation shown in FIG. 2, FIG. 3 shows a plot of results obtained for the ON-OFF intensity ratio vs. the time intervals A1. Here A! represents the equal duration of both pulses V.
and V i.e., the case where At=At|=Ar- A knee" in the curve shown in FIG. 3 at about I millisecond indicates that the pulse widths Al, and A1 are not critical so long as they exceed 1 millisecond. Therein lies the key to the advantage of the fine grain ferroelectric ceramics, in contradistinction to other ferroelectrics lacking such a feature. This knee" indicates that so long as the pulse widths A1 and A1 exceed It has also been found that by repeating the abovedescribed heating and prepoling process of preparation of the ceramic plate 13 followed by a single annealing, a superpoled ceramic is obtained which can be switched between a state of zero and saturated remanent polarization by a voltage pulse source in which V|= K. Thereby the voltage pulse source circuitry can be somewhat simplified over that required for the case V|=2 K described above, that is, V =30O volts and K=- I50 volts.
Moreover, in an xy addressable ferroelectric array, th use of the fine grain superpoled ferroelectric ceramic prepared as described above, makes possible far less crosstalk between the single addressed location and the many nonaddressed locations with the same x or y coordinate than in the case of ferroelectric single crystals in the prior art.
This is due to the fact that, as compared to the single crystal ferroelectric, in the case of a "fine grain ferroelectric ceramic, a pulse height V,/2 applied to the nonaddressed location does not affect the state of polarization nearly as much as the pulse height V. applied to the addressedlocation. This, in turn, is due to the fact that in a single crystal ferroelectric a pulse height V,/2 persisting for a sufficiently long period of time will completely switch the single crystal ferroelectric into a saturated state of remanent polarization: whereas in the case of a fine grain ferroelectric ceramic, a pulse height V1/2 persisting for the same or even longer period of time will only carry the fine grain ferroelectric ceramic into some intermediate state of remanent polarization.
While the use ofindium for the metallic electrodes 16A and 168 has been found to enable a total of over It) switching cycles of the ceramic plate 13, other metals can be used instead of indium. Moreover, the electrodes ISA and lSB can be also advantageously made of gold-chrome or any other stable metals or alloys known in the art instead of aluminum.
Although the preferred material for the ferroelectric plate 13 is lanthanum doped lead zirconate titanate (PZT), other materials can also be used for this plate l3. For example, bismuth doped PZT can also be used as the ferroelectric, although it has been found to yield less birefrigence than lead doped PZT. Moreover, other fine grain ferroelectric ceramics may also be used therefor, as they become available in the art.
1 A light gate which comprises:
(a) afine grain ferroelectric ceramic plate:
(b) two metallic electrodes located on a single major surface of the plate, defining a gap therebetween'.
(c) means for applying two voltage pulses to the electrodes in order to create an electric field in the gap. characterized in that first ofthe pulses is of one algebraic sign and and the second of the pulses is of the opposite algebraic sign. the heights of said pulses being such that the electric polarization of the plate is switched by the second of the pulses from a first to a second state of polarization, the second state characterized by substantially zero average remanent polarization and the first state characterized by a substantially saturated remanent polarization.

RIO RANCHO, N.M. (AP) - Greggory Hull will be Rio Rancho's new mayor.
City voters chose Hull over Michael Williams for a four-year term as mayor of the Albuquerque suburb in Tuesday's runoff election.
According to unofficial results released by the city, Hull had 4,250 votes while Williams had just under 2,300 votes.
The election results in the mayor's race will be canvassed by a Sandoval County judge on Friday. The swearing-in is scheduled for April 21.
Hull and Williams advanced to runoff from the March 4 election during which two other candidates were eliminated.
Incumbent Mayor Thomas Swisstack is leaving office.

Nickelodeon invites kids on a knightly adventure with Dora and Boots to save Don Quixote in the brand-new hour-long special, "Dora's Royal Rescue," premiering Monday, Nov. 5, at 7:00 p.m. (ET/PT). Based on the Miguel de Cervantes literary classic, the episode features guest voices from Andy Garcia and Placido Domingo as Don Quixote and Malambruno respectively.
"It was an honor to play the role of Malambruno on Dora the Explorer, a show that is beloved by so many children, including my grandchildren," says Domingo. "I am the cool grandfather for doing this part and that just fills my heart with joy."
In "Dora's Royal Rescue," Dora's a knight and Boots is her squire as they help the noble horse Rocinante, rescue Don Quixote (Garcia) who is imprisoned by Malambruno (Domingo), an evil wizard, in an abandoned library inside Story Castle. Dora and Boots ride on horse and donkey into the secret cave, past giant windmills and through the noble forest in order to rescue Don Quixote. In the final show-down with Malambruno, they chant "I want to read" breaking his spell and saving all the books.
At NickJr.com, Nickelodeon's award-winning website for parents and preschoolers, Dora the Explorer fans can watch a trailer of the episode and meet Dora's new friends from the special, print a Dora Royal Rescue Coloring Songbook, make a Storybook Castle Puppet Theater and find literacy activities based on the special. Plus, starting Oct. 17, Dora's newest online game, Dora's Royal Rescue Game, will be available for preschoolers to play at NickJr.com.
Dora the Explorer is a play-along, animated adventure series starring Dora, a seven-year-old bilingual Latina heroine whose adventures take place in an imaginative, tropical world filled with jungles, beaches and rainforests. Dora explores her world just as preschoolers do every day, and the show is designed to actively engage its audience in an interactive quest using a variety of learning techniques.
In every episode, Dora and Boots invite the audience to participate in an adventure, where each step of their journey consists of a problem or puzzle that Dora and the audience must think their way through in order to solve the next problem. Dora is proudly bilingual and uses her knowledge of English and Spanish to communicate with her friends, overcome obstacles and reach her goals. In each episode, Dora teaches a Spanish word or phrase to the viewers and then asks them to use it to solve a problem and forge ahead. Dora the Explorer was created by Chris Gifford, Valerie Walsh Valdes and Eric Weiner.

With LeBron James moving back to Cleveland, the NBA has begun to move on from his big decision as other players begin to find homes. The Orlando Magic have done quite well so far this offseason, both through the NBA draft and also free agency. In fact, the roster has quietly formed what the organization hopes can be the core of a playoff push sooner rather than later.
But is Orlando's business for the summer done?
The pickups of Ben Gordon, Channing Frye and Willie Green range from the shrewd to questionable. What isn't in question however is that these are three veteran players, who will add leadership to a team that has lost Aaron Afflalo and Jameer Nelson recently. Add to that the noticeable play of point guard Elfrid Payton during the summer league in Orlando, and the mix on paper at least looks pretty good right about now.
A quick word also on the recent Anthony Randolph trade that went down with the Chicago Bulls. While Randolph was traded from Chicago to shed some cap room as they retool, many expect Orlando to simply let Randolph walk away without ever playing for them.
While the second round draft picks in 2015 and 2016 are the more enticing pickups of the trade, it might be worth at least giving Randolph the chance to prove his worth.
He has already played for four teams in six seasons, so he is running out of chances to keep his career alive. Orlando could be just the spot for him to revive himself.
Expectations still aren't sky high around these parts, and this is a young and hardworking team. Of course the organization may have other things in mind and different directions to go, but it couldn't hurt to give him a workout.
Tobias Harris is the starting power forward around here but having spent time as a PF and center in his career, Randolph could give something off the bench.
Whatever happens, the team is certainly going in the right direction, and is doing so under the radar. If the season started tomorrow, this team would surprise some people in winning some games.
The way Orlando is building this team isn't unique, but it's a little different, and you really feel that they are plotting to make a serious bid for a top tier free agent next summer.
Frye, for example, signed a four-year $32 million contract, but that's movable if it looks like the team could land a star. He's a solid veteran that contending teams love to have.
Similarly, Ben Gordon's deal is only for two seasons with a second-year team option, so if they need the cap space next year he can be taken off the books. Young players like Victor Oladipo, Payton and Aaron Gordon are on those rookie contracts teams love, so while the team is getting better on paper, the flexibility still exists too.
It is not quite the way the Dallas Mavericks have worked in the past, signing veterans to one-year deals so that they can shed them the following summer to pursue a superstar, but it's from the same blueprint. General manager Rob Hennigan actually deserves a lot of credit, because the moves he is making are pleasing fans who want to see progress.
However he is not shackling the team to long-term commitments with the majority of these players, making this team a player in free agency next summer.
Orlando will hope now that with this team, their days of going to the lottery are nearing an end. Despite LeBron James staying in the East, and the likes of the Bulls and Wizards arming themselves with new weapons, the East is still pretty weak.
Building for the present and future is really difficult in the NBA, and yet it seems that's what the Magic are doing, and it is brave. Should the team sneak into the playoffs next season, some free agents will take notice of a young team on the rise.
That will be the moment this team can pounce, ridding themselves of the players necessary to get them that big fish. In some ways it is cruel, but there is no doubting it is also smart.
So smart in fact that, taking stock of the situation, perhaps a bold statement needs to be made. The team probably only have another one or two minor trades left in them, and after that, the prediction here is that they can be a .500 team next season.
It's not going to be easy, but when you are building like this team is and making the fans believe that change truly is on the way, you're willing to go all in and think it can happen. Frye, Gordon, Green, the kind of names that provide stability now, and in the long run may just help pave the way for the brighter future we have been sold on.
What a nice thought that is.

Because unless "Moses" and "the" are the culprits, I can't find one reasonable explanation for my attempted posting to trigger the mother f-ing profanity filter on this board. If this site was a person, I would tell her she needs to get laid. Can't wait to see if this actually posts, lmao.

If they're going to be this wound tight about certain words pertaining to sex, then why do they even have a board discussion things of a sexual nature to begin with? That's just stupid.

Exposing the Secrets of the Temple: How the Federal Reserve Makes Money Out of Thin Air
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
For some, the Federal Reserve is the right place to house any new regulatory powers contained in financial reform legislation. For others, the Fed is at the center of all that ails us. In fact, over 95,000 have signed a petition at auditthefed.com.
"In a major victory for transparency at the Federal Reserve, the Senate passed on Tuesday an amendment by Sen. Bernie Sanders that directs the Government Accountability Office to conduct a top-to-bottom audit of all emergency actions by the Fed since the start of the financial crisis in 2007. In addition to the audit, the Fed for the first time would have to reveal by Dec.1, 2010, the identities of banks and other financial institutions that took more than $2 trillion in nearly zero-interest loans." -- from the office of Sen. Sanders, 05/11/10
William Greider, author of Secrets of the Temple, perhaps the finest book on the Federal Reserve, termed the Sanders-Paul audit bill the "first breach in the wall," adding, "it promises to keep alive popular demands for more fundamental reforms." Greider challenged Greenspan and Paulson long before it was fashionable, and has written lately about restructuring the Fed. Now national affairs correspondent for the Nation, Greider was for 17 years the national affairs editor at Rolling Stone, and spent 15 years at the Washington Post. His latest book is Come Home, America: The Rise and Fall (and Redeeming Promise) of Our Country, and he wrote the introduction to Meltdown: How Greed and Corruption Shattered Our Financial System and How We Can Recover, by the editors of the Nation.
Terrence McNally:Your latest book, Come Home, America, is a bit of a departure for you, isn't it?
William Greider: I hope It's a gentle and helpful description for people of how deep a hole we are in, and that the country that emerges from this ditch -- I'm talking more broadly than the financial crisis -- is going to be different from the country we knew for so many years. That passage is going to be painful, but I stick to my optimism and insist that we can be a better country on the other side of the ditch
I wrote it just as the financial crisis was blossoming (if you can use that word) and I think I was a little premature in how quickly the public at large, never mind the governing types, could grasp the reality of what was happening to us.
The book is now out in paperback, but I almost wish it were published for the first time right now or even next year, because this is a really hard blow Americans have taken. I think many people are still in denial, which I understand.
McNally:I assume the book says things you've stored up for years, but America wasn't ready yet to recognize the depth of our problems and thus the possibility of change. What do you make of that?
Greider: I've always tried to take a longer frame historical view of things, which gives me sympathy for people trying to cope with what's new. In the book I suggest that this country is at the end of a long and mostly glorious run that started with victory in World War II. There were some very dark passages as well, we know, but American prosperity became not just fabulous, but also widely shared.
McNally: That was the great era of the American middle class.
Greider: And my message is that the good times that we knew are not coming back. This is not just about when do we get out of the grand recession or start creating jobs again and so forth. It's deeper than that. The business model for American prosperity that more or less worked for most of the last 50 years is gone.
