Nehru, an idealist or a realist?
By Prof. A.C Bose
Fifty years have passed since the fateful autumn of 1962 when the collective psyche of India received the most traumatic experience so far. Nehru's fifteen year old reputation as a visionary statesman and helmsman of India's destiny was blown away, leaving him a broken man in every sense, physically and politically.
The 14th of November 1962 was certainly the unhappiest birth anniversary he and the nation observed. What was certainly the unhappiest birth anniversary he and the nation observed. What was certainly the cruelest for him was the fact, that, though the nation still adored and obeyed him in the absence of any alternative, there was hardly anyone who condoned him for our disgrace in the Himalayan foothills in the hands of those for whom he had popularised the slogan, 'Hindi-Chini Bhai Bhai'.
The west, the U.S. in particular, whose help he now sought, after having spurned their requests for joining their alliance system and posed as the leader of the so-called 'third world', now laughed through their sleeves, while a disappointed and disgraced nation accused him of idealism bordering on utter naivete for once his close cabinet colleagues joined hands to force his trusted defence minister, V.K. Krishna Menon to step down. He had clearly lost his moral authority to lead the nation, far less the recently emancipated countries of the former colonial world. Even the then president Dr. Radhakrishnan criticised the government for "credulity and negligence". Nehru too admitted the charge by a declaring in the parliament, "We have been living in an unreal world of our own creation".
However, one would like to question, was he actually so naive as to believe that there could never be any friction between the two Asian giants. We do not know how he reacted to his trusted Dr. K.M. Panikkar's (then India's ambassador to China) almost criminal faux pas in writing when he accepted China's sovereignty, instead of suzernity, over Tibet. But, that must have satisfied the Chinese, as with India's gesture to leave Ecquador of South America alone to speak for Tibet's independence when the P.L.A of China marched into that Forbidden Land. Apparently, there was nothing to fear from China then engaged in settling down after a generation of peasant revolts, Japanese aggression and civil war, and faced with the unswerving opposition of the might U.S. It was only to be expected that China too would like to have India as a friend when facing such odds at home and abroad.
Yet, Nehru wrote soon after signing the Panch Sheel agreement in 1954, "In the final analysis no country has any deep faith in the policies of another country, more especially in regard to a country that tends to expand". This indicates that he had already foreseen the potentially expansive bent in Chinese foreign policy that would seek to re-create the Middle Kingdom of the middle ages when much of central and south-east Asia were under Chinese control or, at least, influence.
Of course, there was the historic display of Hindi-Chini Bhai Bhai at the Bandung Conference, in early 1955. But, Nehru was not unaware of Chinese designs just across the Himlayas, and told the chief ministers in October 1958 that India had to face "a powerful country bent on spreading out to what they consider their old frontiers, and possibly beyond". The confrontation started a year later when developments within Tibet forced the Dalai Lama to escape to India forcing an embarrassed government of India to accept him and his entourage of Tibetan refugees as honoured guests.
The public opinion is India then would not have allowed any government in Delhi to follow any other course of action. However, the dice has been cast, and thereafter Sino-Indian relations were to slide down from bad to worse. In the face of a neighbour bent upon spreading its control and influence Nehru had choice but to opt for the so-called limited forward policy', aimed at establishing military outposts in bringing under some sort of administrative control the so far virtually no-man's land claimed by the British-Indian government for being south of the Mac Mohan Line which, of course, the Chinese had never recognised. That was certain to lead to occasional frictions on the undemarcated border with the potential of a major confrontation.
However, with the memory of the Korean War in mind he told his party members in late 1959 that the Chinese were unlikely to invade India as that would start to a, world war', by which he, of course, meant a major war involving outside intervention.
Besides, Nehru had the prescience from the early fifties that the alliance between the two Red giants, the USSR and China, would not last long, mainly because of the inevitable clash of their interests and ambitions in central and north-east Asia as well as over their claim to leadership of the communist parties of the Afro-Asian countries.
Hence, he felt that, since Soviet Russia would draw herself closer to India as a balancing factor in Asia, China would not dare needle India with threats of a major war. That Sino-Soviet tension became visible as a split in 1959, and even as late as on 13 October 1962 Kruschev told the Chinese Ambassador in Moscow that he had always tried to be even handed between India and China so that the former did not seek the American embrace.
Of course, it is a different story that, once the Chinese attack had started, Kruschev came out in support of China, probably, hoping to repair the frayed Sino-Soviet relations. Even Krishna Menon, who had greater influence on Nehru's foreign policy than anyone else, cannot be blamed for being very naive or pro-Chinese. Alone among Nehru's colleagues he always believed that a settlement of the border dispute can never be based on concessions by the Chinese alone; rather both the countries should concede some of their claims.
It was with that aim that, during Chou en Lai's last visit to India, in early 1960, he proposed offering the whole of Aksai Chin on a long term lease to China. But, the Chinese, who had by then constructed the road from Gartok to Yarkand, and were in total control of the whole of Aksai Chin, were in no mood to go for anything less. He had again tried to find a settlement with the Chinese foreign minister, Chen Yi, when they met at Geneva in July 1962 to discuss the Laos problem. But, nothing came out of it, mainly, because the Indian response was slow and the Chinese were not too keen for a peaceful settlement.
All these go to prove that Nehru was not that star-eyed idealist and naive as he had been usually painted since then. Where he and Menon both obviously miscalculated was in not expecting the type of attack that actually took place, and the Soviet support for China once the limited war had actually started. True, Chine cautious enough not to invite big power involvement as had happened in the case of Korea. They had a rather easy run all the way from the accepted border to the foot-hills of the Kameng district of the then NEFA (now Arunachal) but decided on their own to withdraw exactly a month after they had crossed the border. Probably, they had aimed at just chastising the Indians who were claiming the leadership of the Third World, and to warn them against exhibiting any undue interest in the affairs of Tibet. They did not want to push us closer to the U.S., and they appear to have succeeded in achieving their limited objective.
Many have blamed Nehru for adopting the so-called 'forward policy' from the mid-fifties, and for asking the army before leaving for Sri Lanka to "throw them out". However, they forget that a newly independent nation needs self-confidence, and it cannot tolerate the sight of an apparently stronger neighbour nibbling away parts of its territory. Indian psyche was not yet reconciled to the loss of territory constituting Pakistan, and Was in no mood to accept any further loss of land. So, it was sheer political compulsion that forced Nehru to adopt a tough attitude over the border question, and not to yield any ground.
It was the same question of national honour that prevented New Delhi from accepting the U.S. requests to join their band wagon. Those who had fought the British for freedom were not expected to willingly play the second fiddle to another Western country. India needed an independent role for her psychological sustenance. We must not forget that independent India's foreign policy, especially in earlier years, was not some thing very rationally thought out. It was in large parts inherited and coloured by our view of Asia's cultural history, and India's place therein, and the moral stand that Tagore and many of our national leaders had adopted on issues involving human rights, freedom, and peace.
It was not possible for any one in power in Delhi to disown the burden of our historical legacy. Of course, Nehru shared those ideals, but was not naive enough to ignore the realities of the actual world.

I'm Jennifer Lewis, the head of staff pastor at PCWS. The "head of staff" part of that title means that one of my tasks is overseeing the remarkable group of people who make up this congregation's staff. Since 2003, when I was called and elected to serve here, you'll find me preaching and leading worship on a majority of Sundays, offering pastoral care, and teaching in a number of different areas in the life of the church. Working together with the staff, elders and deacons, I provide leadership in seeking God's direction for our future.
I've served in a variety of settings in Illinois, North Carolina and New Jersey since my ordination in 1983: small and large churches; urban, suburban and rural congregations; a college campus and as an administrator of a not-for-profit. Ministry is a thrilling and humbling calling. I love the work to which God has called me.
I'm a New York State native and graduate of Boston College, where I majored in philosophy.

Firefighters rescue pensioner from Abbots Bromley house fire
Posted: February 11, 2013|
By JENNY MOODY
AN elderly woman had to be rescued from a house fire in Abbots Bromley last week.
The woman, who is in her 70s, was rescued from her Newton Hurst Lane home on Friday. Firefighters from Abbots Bromley, Rugeley and Stafford were called to the property at 7.11pm.
The pensioner was still inside the house when firefighters arrived and had to be led to safety. A fire was in progress in the living room involving the sofa and some clothing.
Station manager Jim Bywater said: "It was a relatively small fire however there was a lot of smoke and the entire house was heavily smoke logged. Firefighters dealt with the fire whilst paramedics treated the woman for smoke inhalation; she was taken to hospital for further treatment as a precaution.
"Smoke alarms had alerted the woman to the fire but she had not managed to get out. The alarms are also linked to First Call which automatically alerted them as well.
"It appears the woman had been drying clothing too close to an electric fire and these items caught fire. It was lucky that we were alerted when we were as given the amount of smoke in the house, we could have been dealing with a fatal fire had we not had the early warning, and that is thanks to working smoke alarms. We would urge people to ensure they don't place any combustible materials, such as clothing and furniture, too close to fires or heaters.
"We would urge people to take the necessary precautions to stay safe from fire in their home."

Egypt denies 8 US NGOs licence to operate
Cairo – Egyptian authorities have denied permission to eight US-based nonprofit groups to operate locally, including a centre headed by former American president Jimmy Carter that monitors elections, a ministry official said on Monday.
The Social Affairs Ministry official said the licenses were denied because the groups' activities "breach the country's sovereignty". He did not elaborate. He spoke on Monday on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to brief the media.
The move comes only a month ahead of presidential elections slated for 23 May, the first since the ouster of longtime authoritarian leader Hosni Mubarak 14 months ago.
Sanne van den Bergh, who heads The Carter Centre in Egypt, said that the group has not yet received formal notification of the decision. Observers from the centre were allowed by the country's military rulers to "witness" multi-stage parliamentary elections that ran November to February. The Carter Centre said the vote was generally fair.
A recent criminal investigation into alleged violations by US-based nonprofit groups in Egypt led to the worst diplomatic row between Cairo and Washington in three decades. American employees were referred to trial on charges that they had used illegally obtained funds to promote activities that undermined stability.
Most of the Americans were out of the country when investigative judges referred them to trial and those who stayed behind were later allowed to leave.
The Carter Centre is the most prominent of the eight groups. Some of the others are linked to US-based churches.

My husband and I spent a long weekend at Sweet Woodruff looking to escape from the hustle and bustle of the daily grind. The only thing we wished is that our stay had been longer! The room and kitchenette were beautiful, comfortable, and spotless. Our hosts were lovely and accommodating. The breakfast both mornings was divine - Catherine even made it all vegetarian for us: quiche, homemade blackberry scones and jam, the most amazing sweet potatoes... The island was breathtaking, even before its peak season. Bill graciously showed us the islands hidden gems and layout. Andy's Marine park and Jacob's Point offered some dense forest trails and long stretches of beach filled with ocean life. We would certainly return!
4,8 sur février 07, 2014
Upstairs large room with sitting area, small kitchen and queen bed. Lovely attached bathroom with shower. Very well decorated and a comfortable memory foam queen mattress. The innkeepers were so very nice, prepared us a gourmet breakfast with bacon, blueberry muffins, eggs, fresh juice and more. We would go again any time!
5 sur décembre 18, 2013
My wife surprised me with a getaway and this place is wonderful. Bill & Cathrine were very sweet. The breakfast was amazing and they gave us lots of tips of "to-do's" on the island. We highly recommend this place.
4,6 sur décembre 16, 2013
This was a very nice bed & breakfast with a very quiet/private room. Lots of space & cute & homey. The owners were like meeting family & served us a 5 Star Breakfast. Had a lovely time & would love to go back there again
5 sur octobre 01, 2013
We have stayed in several B&B before and the quality is mostly very high. The same was this beautiful place in the woods on a South Puget Sound island. The hosts, Bill and Catherine are very caring and helpful. Their B&B is a newer, wonderfully appointed home and to our surprise the "guest room" was a large room which included a kitchen, living rm and bdrm. We enjoyed sitting on their large deck listening to birds and waterfall in the garden. Breakfast was served in the style of five star hotel and was made to our specs :-)) It is a wonderful area mainly for those who want to get away from the busy mainland streets.

Lovely host couple, warm hospitality

My husband and I stayed there on 8/12. The place was so nice and clean, and Katherine was so gracious and interesting to visit with. Her husband, Bill was away, but we plan on staying again so we will meet him then! It was quite a treat to have freshly baked choc. chip cookies in our room upon our arrival, and the breakfast was amazing too! Katherine is a "Foody", and we enjoyed eating her food and discussing that topic. The cottage is very warm and inviting. We plan on staying there again soon.

We stayed two nights in June, 2011. The upstairs room is very private and very spacious, and well equipped with everything you need or want. Fresh cookies greet you and the breakfasts are delicious. Most importantly, the hosts, Catherine and Bill, are warm and welcoming, and willing to assist you with information about the Island, or anything else you ask or need! We will return!

We loved our stay at this beautiful B & B on Anderson Island! The room was lovely and comfortable. It included a kitchenette and a sitting area with a sleeping alcove, plus a roomy bathroom. Yummy chocolate chip cookies magically appeared each evening, accompanied by cold milk. Innkeepers Bill and Catherine felt like old friends after about 10 minutes, and the breakfast were the best by far that we have had at any B & B. Staying on Anderson Island was like going back in time where neighbors know each other, everyone waves when they drive by...the best of small town America. Bill and I look forward to our next visit to Sweet Woodruff...we will make sure we can stay longer next time! Bill and Jan Saxton

We spent two very relaxing and wonderful days in this peaceful setting. We were welcomed that first day and the welcome never ended. If you're looking for good food and welcoming hosts this is the place to go. We will definitely keep this on our list of B & B's to revisit.

Bill & Catherine couldn't have been nicer... cookies & wine every evening & great breakfast. Great location near golf, dining, country store, etc. Accommodations were awesome! We will definitely be back!

Very cordial hosts who make their guests feel right at home. They even took us kayaking!

What's not to like? My wife and I have just spent 3 days 2 nights at the Sweet Woodruff B&B and had a superb time. The hosts, Bill and Catherine Spears are gracious, welcoming, knowledgeable, helpful and respectful of different agendas and privacy. Did I mention breakfasts that are outstanding? Anderson Island is a great location for retreating to "island time" but still having as active a vacation as you wished. With the Spears assistance, we enjoyed kayaking on 2 different days, a lovely lakeside supper outdoors, pickle ball (on a tennis court), swimming, hikes, photography, and evening wine on their beautiful deck.. The "bedroom" is actually more like a second story apartment decorated very tastefully with every need anticipated. The home and grounds are immaculate. We will be going back yearly if not sooner.

What a great weekend getaway about an hour and half from our home in Seattle. We enjoyed 18 holes or golf, beach walks and well as just relaxing. Bill and Catherine make it very easy for us to have a good Anderson Island weekend. Sunday we went to a very fun wedding at the Johnson Farm, Bill and Catherine were part of the communitity food prep.

What a pleasure it was to stay with Bill and Catherine. The table was set beautifully, the food was excellent and Bill and Catherine were a pleasure to get to know. We had to leave early on Sunday and Catherine go to go boxes so we could take our breakfast with us. That was awesome! If your on the Island, this is the place to go.

I found this to be one of the best B&B's I have stayed at. Bill and Catherine were terrific to talk and went out of their way to accommodate. Sweet Woodruff was a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. The accommations were private, comfortable and very well kept. What a beautiful house! Breakfast was great too! Sweet Woodruff will be our destination of choice the next time we visit the island.

I love this place. Great room, breakfast's and hosts! Went sea kayaking with Bill today. Between the views of Puget Sound, the Bald Eagles and Mt Rainier, I had my breath taken away over and over. Great B&B, fun island, and a couple of great innkeepers. It's a 10 !

Sweet Woodruff's B&B was a perfect way to feel like we were miles away although it's only a twenty minute ferry ride within Pierce County to this friendly and charming island. Our hosts were warm and gracious, our accommodations relaxing (and very private) and the breakfast was wonderful. We look forward to visiting Anderson Island again and Sweet Woodruff's will be our destination of choice!

Finally, a WOODEN Tinker Toys set I have looked all over in local stores for wooden Tinker Toys. I just don't like the plastic ones. I was thrilled to find that the Vermont Store carried them, and that they were reasonably priced. My only disappointment is that they come in a cardboard "tin" rather than a metal one.

Drugs that promote blood clotting
Drugs that promote blood clotting are used to treat disorders in which blood fails to clot normally.
© Jupiter
Several types of disorder cause spontaneous internal bleeding or excessive bleeding after even minor injuries (see Bleeding disorders). These disorders are usually treated with drugs that promote blood clotting or slow the breakdown of existing clots.
Common drugs
|Blood products: Factor VIII, Factor IX, Fresh frozen plasma
|Vitamin K: Phytomenadione
|Antifibrinolytic drugs: Aprotinin, Tranexamic acid
What are the types of drugs that promote blood clotting?
The three main types of drug that are used to promote the formation of blood clots and to prevent or reduce abnormal bleeding are blood products, vitamin K, and antifibrinolytic drugs.
Blood products
Normal blood clotting depends on the presence in the blood of certain proteins called clotting factors. People who lack one of these clotting factors (often due to an inherited disorder) may be given specific blood products, which are concentrated supplements of the missing protein. For example, a blood product called Factor VIII is needed for the treatment of the inherited bleeding disorder haemophilia (see Haemophilia and christmas disease), in which a defective gene causes a deficiency of natural Factor VIII in the blood. Another blood product, fresh frozen plasma, is given to counteract abnormally prolonged or severe bleeding due to causes such as an excessive dose of anticoagulants (see Drugs that prevent blood clotting).
All blood products are administered intravenously, either in hospital or at home, and may be used regularly as a preventive treatment or given when abnormal bleeding occurs.
Some people experience side effects, including chills and fever, when being given blood products. These side effects may result from an allergic reaction.
Vitamin K promotes blood clotting
This vitamin is essential for the production of several vital blood-clotting factors. Newborn babies (who are born with no stores of vitamin K) and people who are deficient in vitamin K may need a supplement, which is either given by injection or taken orally. Vitamin K is also used to reverse the effect of an excessive dose of oral anticoagulants. No side effects are known to be associated with its use.
Antifibrinolytic drugs
These drugs may be used when bleeding is difficult to control, as may occur after surgery, or to reduce menstrual bleeding that is excessively heavy (see Menorrhagia). Antifibrinolytic drugs affect the clotting process of blood by slowing the breakdown of existing clots. The drugs may be injected or given by infusion into a vein if bleeding must be stopped urgently or may be taken orally for the treatment of menorrhagia. Side effects such as headaches, diarrhoea, nausea, and vomiting are sometimes experienced by people who are taking these drugs. Occasionally, the drug aprotinin causes an allergic reaction.

52 lists in 52 weeks//week 22 and A Pumpkin Finish
Aha! Just in the nick of time, I have my pumpkin table runner done!
Inspired by the Pumpkin Patch Table Runner by the plaid scottie {here}, I decided to shorten mine up some.
wikipedia}. It, along with some random straight-line quilting, and an occasional rusty-orange thread gave it the look I was doing for.
Linking up with {Sew} Modern Monday and Fabric Tuesday!

you should definitely enjoy it through november!
