Dont Believe Everything He Says.
He may tell you the cheesiest story bout how he figured out he liked you, dont always believe it. It could just be a way to try and get in your pants. ;) Like I had a guy tell me in a dream he was blind and deaf and an angel came down and cured him, the angel turned out to be me. I thought it was so cute at first, then I thought about it, there is no way that could be true.

Ratings: NBC's 'Next Action Star' fails to shine in debut
By Reality TV World staff, 06/22/2004
The final ratings for last week's debut of the first two episodes of NBC's new
Next Action Star
reality series, and despite the claims of the network's pre-debut promos, so far the series is shaping to be anything but "the next big thing in reality TV."
According to final in-home viewing figures from Nielsen Media Research, last week's special Monday, June 14 special "preview episode" of
Next Action Star
stumbled badly out of the gate, drawing only 4.9 million overall viewers and a 2.2/6 rating/share in the Adults 18-49 demographic. Things went so bad for the show that in addition to getting smacked by a repeat episode of CBS'
CSI: Miami
Next Action Star
also lost handily to a new ABC show -- yes, ABC -- entitled
Weddings Gone Wild: Anything For Love
The situation got only slightly better for the network on Tuesday when
Next Action Star
"premiere" episode aired at 8 PM ET/PT. The June 15th episode drew 5.5 million overall viewers and a 2.3/8 in Adults 18-49, a performance that placed it third for the time period, behind a repeat broadcast of CBS'
Navy NCIS
and ABC's combo of a
8 Simple Rules
repeat and NBA Finals pre-game show.

The performance did feature a few silver linings however --

did manage to finish first among Adults 18-34 and second among Adults 18-49, where its performance increased slightly from 2.2 to 2.4 from its first half-hour to its second.

Is she even any good.
zepfya posted...Is she even any good.She seems fantastic. I recommend building cool down reduction for her first couple items as her base damage is pretty high. I think her combo is E on your self for the movement and shield and then W. Hit them with an empowered Q just as they are rooted and that should chunk them for a lot of health. Her Q cool down is really short too. I think she will be played competitively if left as is.

"We want to help people seeking to improve their language skills," says Morgane Thiery.
There's no better way to learn a foreign language than immersing yourself in it. Macalester's six languages houses make that possible.
In April, diners gathered around a table full of quiche, choucroute, macaroons, and other foods typical of France's northeastern Lorraine district. The delicious repast was just one in a series of monthly gatherings held at French House, the college-owned residence where students eager to learn the language spend a semester.
French House is one of a half dozen language houses owned and managed by the college. Clustered together along Vernon Street just behind Mac's ball fields, these include Japan, Chinese, Russian, German, and Spanish Houses along with French House. Each is home to three to six students, most of whom spend a single semester living there, speaking only that house's language.
But back to French House: The foods of Lorraine were featured, as those of Senegal had been earlier, because those are the native lands of lab instructors Morgane Thiery and Rokhaya Dieng, who live in the house along with four students. These monthly fetes—which also have included Mardi Gras parties and poetry nights—are not the residents' only gatherings. They also dine together three times a week, often exploring French cuisine.
"It's a very good way to improve your French," says lab instructor Thiery, "but also a good way to recreate a sense of family. Plus you're close to campus!"
Many residents, she says, choose to live in a language house for the semester before they study abroad, hoping to improve their conversational skills and better acquaint themselves with that country's culture.
In Japan House, for example, residents have prepared onigiri (rice balls), learned origami, and played Japanese card games, says lab instructor Junko Fukuoka. They also learn the names of Japanese foods and cooking tools. "The vocabulary we use in Japan House while living together is more varied than that taught in classrooms," says Fukuoka. "They need this extra vocabulary to live in Japan."
Although students needn't be language majors to live in one of the houses, they must be capable of joining in the conversation. On the other hand, truly excellent speakers shouldn't apply: "Priority is given to those who aren't fluent," says Thiery. "We want to help people seeking to improve their language skills."
Improvement, knowledge, and Quiche Lorraine, too. No wonder Macalester's language houses are so popular.

Still Skidding
Ideas keep rolling in for how to turn pallets into projects. Here's a tally of some possibilities.
Handy "Tweener" Wood Screws
Here's a tip of my hat to McFeely's for coming up with a better woodworking screw. Well, actually, a whole bunch of better fasteners, but there's one type I particularly like: the #8 Promax® 1-3/8″ black oxide flathead.
You read that right—1 and 3/8. Not 1-1/4″, 1-1/2″ or 1-5/8″ … the usual home-center suspects.
Here's why I like the 1-3/8″.
Pocket Screw Joints: The Outdoorsy Types
Summer is quickly slipping through our fingers, so hopefully you're busy with outdoor projects. This season, I've got a garden fence that's way overdue. In the spirit of exterior projects, I'd like to recommend pocket screw joinery.


text: Sell a management, sale, Bazaar interior sale manages Sell a management, sale, Bazaar interior sale manages Bazaar interior sale includes a lot of in-house activities of the enterprise, it is a strategic management, core is the client consciousness that trains employee, promoting product and service through sale activity before outward ministry, be opposite first in- house member have sale. The client's concept points to exterior consumer not only, also include in-house employee at the same time, in-house personnel those who regard an enterprise as is additional a client group. Such, the enterprise exists an internal market, have appropriate in-house sale only, the sale activity ability on exterior field acquires the company successful. In-house field sale regards kind of personnel administration as strategy, already was taken seriously by a lot of business places. In-house sale traceable a kind of idea, regard as employee namely the in-house field with first company. To great majority service, serving personnel and service is impartible. The service is kind of labor above all concentrated model row, accordingly, the quality of employee affects the beneficial result of the quality of the service and enterprise directly. People can limit in-house sale so: Carry the series activity of similar market sale, bring the enthusiasm of in- house field staff and initiative into play, foster the service consciousness of employee, make in-house personnel has client consciousness complete a sale consciousness. Actual, every enterprise or organization have the in-house field that him employee makes, the enterprise should regard his sale target as this in-house field above all, otherwise, of the enterprise external sale will be restricted by the influence. Accordingly, in-house sale management regards employee as internal customer, through series the activity of similar market sale provides excellent service for internal customer, the enthusiasm of the member that will bring interior into play, promote the harmonious cooperation between departmental door personnel, arouse them to provide excellent service for exterior client. Regard kind of comprehensive management as the process, in-house sale two respects are integrated the each management function of look forward to. Above all, it ensures the employee that includes each estate inside high-level administrator, in the environment that is helpful for raising the consciousness that serves for the client, understanding carries out activity of sale of each management strategy; Next, it ensures all employee are below the premise that serves for the client, active ginseng runs an activity. Accordingly, the administrative activity that the substance that in-house sale runs is the similar field sale that coordinates each other through series, arouse the enthusiasm that employee serves for the client, interior of progressively enterprise is modelled kind new it is oriented culture atmosphere in order to serve, make faculty becomes the service personnel that has client consciousness service to direct, from go up at all improve service quality, enhance the field competition ability of look forward to finally. This shows, since of in-house field sale is contemporary kind of personnel administration of bazaar is politic, it is to model enterprise interior to be the important step of oriented culture concept in order to serve at the same time. Bazaar interior sale manages advocate content grooms groom the main component of an in-house sale management, groom to what employee undertakes planning, it is to raising the primary quality of employee to serve skill not only must, and the serves strategic oneself duty that conduces to employee knowing a business adequately, firm the service concept that establishs a client to direct. Groomed goal assignment basically has 3 sides: One, should make every stuff right the service strategy of the enterprise reachs his oneself the position of amid and action have a development and comprehensive knowledge; 2, establish and enhance the consciousness of the client consciousness of employee and service; 3, raise employee to communicate, the skill that sells a service. Accordingly, making groom when plan, should combine knowledge and skill, concept, manner in cheek by jowl case, make both and mutual promote, supplement each other, cannot place do one thing and neglect another. Groom need the actual condition specific aim according to bazaar the ground undertakes, groom blindly the waste that can bring about manpower material resources only. Because the personnel of different type is serving the duty action in sale process to differ, need those who undertake differring to groom accordingly. Should take what serve personnel to contacting the client's line directly seriously to groom particularly, because they contact a client directly only, and direct ginseng serves sale activity, the figure of bazaar and service quality basically are reflected through them come out. When undertaking grooming to string staff, want to make them sufficient understand the overall objective that comprehends look forward to to serve sale already, enhance the sense of responsibility that they serve for the client, notice to foster them to build the technical ability of high administrative levels of good relationship respect with client contact with, client again. To some the stuff that has special function, the working property that needs to be engaged in according to them increases some of specialized training, the special communication that helps them master working place to need serves skill. A lot of bazaar of foreign are opposite especially to serving personnel of personnel of a gleam of choose extremely strict, and want undertake to them aggrandizement trains regularly. Drive gains the response of exterior field, bazaar must provide high grade commodity and service for the client, in-house field also is such. It is the enthusiasm consciousness that the client serves to move employee, need has active drive to its ceaselessly, accordingly, sale of incentive bazaar interior manages serious content. In all sorts of incentive means, corporeal drive is the mainest. Bazaar should according to actual condition, of the member that rise hard endowment welfare pay, give the material that is the same as degree award according to employee achievement. But, a large number of facts prove, drive of only support material obtains expectant incentive result very hard. For effectively incentive employee, while material is incentive, return the immaterial drive that should take a variety of forms. Above all, respect the service work of employee adequately, often all sorts of Add up to the contribution that emphasizes employee be being done for place of look forward to. Next, want hard to provide appropriate working station for employee, and favorable working environment expands opportunity. In addition, sufficient trustful personnel wants in the job, should give departmental door employee especially the attributive that line employee decides, allow them to there is authority to handle the issue that in serving a process, appears inside calm limits, can arouse the enthusiasm of line employee and consciousness already so, enhance the sense of responsibility that serves for the client, avoid what pushed on class branch or director staff body up to have a problem, can shorten again the time that solves a problem, alleviate full mood of the client. Need to point out, major market is at present right the incentive strength of employee of a gleam of and incentive method remain to be mixed at rising improve. The as close together as client connection post in common market is the post of level pay lowest mostly, wait like business personnel, sales promotion personnel, maintenance technician, and these personnel carry out just the service strategy of bazaar, show market image, build long-term and good relationship to have major effect with the client. Respect, if these personnel cannot get the drive of effect, they become possibly to the manner that waits for a client inactive, and meet subliminal transfer this kind of manner the client, cause very big harm to the figure of bazaar and sale performance; Other side, lubricious employee is shown on these post, often promote to a high office again the post that contacts to client of very few need, the post that this makes these crucial lacks outstanding person with ability. Actual, for the modern market with these oriented to be with the client post all in all, the personnel on these post needs to provide creativity of the enthusiasm that serves for the client highly, consciousness. Accordingly, the incentive strength that should explore progress to increase these pair of staff and improvement are incentive to theirs means, the principle should let employee realize the value of the service, realize the client offers excellent service to be able to get corresponding get one's own back. Should see again at the same time, drive and tie are two respects that are the same as a thing, the drive that lacks a tie cannot achieve incentive goal. Accordingly, incentive while the service behavior that still answers employee undertakes be supervisoried necessarily. Supervise advocate method, can take the investigation that has considering repletion meaning level regularly, reach the processing that strengthens pair of clients to complain to wait. But, supervisory examination should gain the understanding support of employee as far as possible, should be helpful for improving the morale of employee, and the enthusiasm that can harm them. The of all kinds employee of communication bazaar needs sufficient information to complete respective work, for interior external the client provides a service. The acceptance of client of the property that system of regulations of the strategy of camp of battalion manage recite scriptures that the information that they need includes a company, post, product serves, firm or assure to wait a moment. In addition, Between class of bazaar interior fluctuation, between the branch, and member between also need communication to communicate, consequently, communicating is management of bazaar interior sale serious content. Above all, the administrator, member that serve personnel and each section, can feedback through communicating message formally with informal interactive type information, understanding accepts the mission of bazaar, strategy, tactics, and activity of sale of product, service, such, the ability of thought of service concept strategy of bazaar makes the self-conscious conduct of employee. Next, because serve quality to depend on not only,the attitude of attending to guests of wire service personnel, skill serves a level, and still depend on the mutual understanding of personnel of other and departmental door, collaboration coordinates wire service personnel and interior. Because all employee entered the process that serves for the client, although a lot of employee disregard a guest to be contacted directly, but the service that their labour tabulation shows to also affect client place secondhand to obtain, line employee relies on the service consciousness of other employee greatly to consider the ability of customer service Wu. The service that provides high quality is not a line serve personnel or other staff of a certain department can finish alone, staff of its each department mutual cooperation, the result of the joint efforts. And channel general rule is aided between implementation interior personnel, the mutual understanding between the branch, add up to support, include high-level governor especially inside the support that various administrator serves personnel to the line and relevant section are right line the support of the service department. This respect, beijing double the serves for the client purpose that installs bazaar to put forward reflects idea of this kind of government. Double the service that brings market, locate above all cause client, display ware, recieve the respect such as the client, satisfy the requirement of cause client as far as possible; Pay attention to bazaar interior next the service between each link, for instance storehouse and the join between business line serve, run an administrative service that is business line, begin a worker groom the service is waited a moment, reflect all sorts of field service for client of bazaar business line finally. Anyhow, arrive from shopping environment wholesome condition, from member move install reduce battalion carry cost, all without exception includes the connotation that serves for the client. Want to achieve afore-mentioned goals, manage atmosphere with respect to what must form kind of open mode in bazaar interior, increase the diaphaneity with interior decision-making management, use all and necessary agency method, accelerate information to deliver rate, raise information to deliver quality, strengthen the information between departmental door personnel to share. In the meantime, effort will communicate effectively union to rise, make information is communicated not only be helpful for strengthening understanding cooperation, and communicate can positive to the manner generation of employee effect, can arouse extensive staff to enter the decision- making government of the enterprise actively. If be lacked to the middle of the information that employee provides can the content of effect drive employee, promote hard member The change of worker attitude concept, make employee loses interest gradually to provides information easily at the same time, cause information to communicate finally canal block is interrupted (bazaar needs aggrandizement interior sale to manage) . Besides afore-mentioned content, in-house sale still includes other the behaviour that a lot of aim foster employee to serve a concept and activity. But, if people it is an in- house sale merely a sale activity that regards kind of meaning to go up, so, in-house sale cannot gain the success of strategic meaning, because in-house sale activity is carried out on this administrative levels only,be the service culture that cannot breed a company, also hard from go up at all the pursuit that stimulates employee to direct to excellent service client. Visible, in-house sale manages the simple meaning that has broken through personnel administration actually, make a component of company strategy management, in-house sale more should be regard a strategy as the activity and not be a tactical activity will give carry out, it is kind of management philosophy above all, just be kind of government strategy next. Include governor of administrator high level inside faculty, join actively first and last, it is bazaar interior sale obtains the assurance with the most significant success. In addition, centre of gravity of administrative method engineering must by manage with the system advocate change direction to manage with personnel advocate, the service culture look that progressively enterprise is establishing suits.

Navigate The Style Guy's Wisdom by Topic:
Jeans & Pants
The aesthetic attributes of pleats
My colleagues and I are debating the aesthetic attributes of pleats. We have found that most men are unaware of their reasons for choosing pleats and that most women prefer flat-front trousers. Do you wear pleats? Do you prefer pleats? Which style of pants do you find more aesthetically appealing? FYI, fluffy pleats are an epidemic in Philadelphia.
I wear both pleated and flat-front trousers. Most of my suits have very simple, almost invisible pleats that are there for purely practical reasons. Pleats give you a little more room. I was wearing one of my favorite pairs of flat-front pants the other day and hopped into a cab and busted out the back seam. I had to walk from the taxi to my door very gingerly, as I was wearing loud plaid boxers under my white pants. And thats why we have pleats. I dont think anyone really thinks theyre an aesthetic enhancement. After about twenty years of being way out, pleats came back big-time in the 80s and peaked in the late 80s and early 90s with big, baggy-legged, extravagantly pleated trousers made popular by a famous Italian designer. Probably the most hideous pleat is the reverse pleat, which was sometimes used on particularly balloony pantaloons. Today, of course, flat fronts are fashionable, and most mens designer trousers are very trim and 60s looking. We know women like them. My wife encourages me to stick to flat fronts, and I have had some suits made that way. But I dont think pleats are dead. Discreet pleats on trousers with properly sized legs are not offensive. I think the real problem is baggy pants. Who is to blame for the neo-zoot bags that refuse to disappear from our landscape? I dont know, but until we find out, lets blame Pat Riley.

The law of attraction has been in the public domain for at least 100 years. True, only a handful of people were aware of it. And then the movie "the secret" comes along to pad the pockets of smart business men.
Either way, us little people are NO better off since the movie. People are still scrambling trying to figure out what and how to use the Laws of the Universe. The only people benefiting from the laws of the universe are the "insiders," and they ain't gonna tell us sheep how the game gets won.
Therefore, the movie was just a diversion from a bigger truth.
Just focusing on (and feeling) abundance doesn't make you abundant.
LoA is a slippery slope. Be careful, by walking that path you can end up losing more than you think. The LoA does seem to work opposite for some, and this was proven with scientific testing. Creation is very powerful, and respect/knowledge is a must.
Anonymous Coward 29412599
Interesting. Do you have any links?
It would kinda make sense to me. It seems that good things happen to bad people and bad things to good people. Those who screw people over seem to get ahead fast. I'm still trying to figure out the laws of the universe. There is something deeper we need to pay attention to. And the simple law of attraction does not work like the movie "secret" promised. Of it did, there wouldn't be so many books and shelters out there selling more law of attraction gimmicks.
Anonymous Coward 29657187
Yes, the Secret is oversimplified commodified mass market garbage to make consumers feel good. But just like organized religion, there are grains of truth amongst the bullshit.
The reason LOA often works in opposite manner is because most people can only focus on their LACK of what they want rather than the feeling of ABUNDANCE that will attract their desires.
Even then, reality is more complex than any system can teach. Simply wishing for something is not enough.

DIY Steadicam for the iPhone
This is really awesome. While there are rumors that an iPhone 4 Steadicam is in production, Spencer Watson didn't wait -- as you can see above, he went ahead and built a Steadicam-type rig for his own iPhone out of some parts he had sitting around. As you can see from the video it takes, it works pretty well. While you probably wouldn't want to use it in place of a professional rig (the iPhone isn't really meant for high-motion video, and it looks like he's applied some other stabilization filters), it definitely looks better than if the iPhone was on its own.
You can pick up some of the parts he used in his online store, but it all looks pretty easy to put together. All together, he says it was about $40 of parts from Home Depot or a skate store, and I'm betting it's about a weekend of work. Very cool.

How to Keep the Polar Vortex From Blasting Your Bank Account
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- With temperatures sliding below 10 degrees in large portions of the U.S. thanks to the now infamous polar vortex, Americans are doing their best to grin and bear it.
That's going to be harder when those home heating bills start showing up.
Heavy demand for heat has especially driven natural gas prices up, doubling them in New England and tripling them in states including New York.
The first wave from the polar vortex, which occurred earlier in January, was expected to cost the economy $5 billion -- and that was before the second wave hit this week.
That scenario will likely lead to higher monthly heating bills, leaving many Americans steaming in their parkas and mukluks. "Extremely cold temperatures have forced customer's heating equipment to run longer and harder this winter," says Jeff Camp, vice president of customer operations at TXU Energy, a Texas electricity provider. "As a result, most consumers are using more electricity even if they aren't raising their thermostat settings." To keep energy costs down during freezing cold periods on the calendar, TXU advises the following steps: If you run into trouble, call ahead: Most energy providers are amenable to giving you time if you're having trouble with the extra payments, including payment plans, bill deferrals and averaged-out monthly billing. "For customers facing a bill they will have challenges paying on time, the first thing to do is to contact us before the due date," Camp says. "That gives us the best opportunity to provide assistance and helps customers avoid added costs related to late payments and disconnection." Turn down the dial: TXU advises turning the thermostat down "a few degrees" when you're not at home. Close the blinds: Keeping the window blinds closed keeps cold air out and heat in during freezing weather. Close the vents: Keeping vents closed also conserves heat, as will closing chimney dampers. Check your water heater: Consumers can also cut costs by turning down water heater temperatures to 120 degrees. TXU also advises installing water heater insulation to further cut energy costs. TXU also advises consumers replacing heating unit filters every three months to put a lid on energy costs, and make sure all door and window seals are properly closed, keeping more warm air in and cold air outside.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

A novel chitosan derivative, 8-hydroxyquinioline-2-carboxaldehydechitosan (CSHQ) Schiff base, was synthesized by a simple condensation process. The structure of the resulting product was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, solid-state 13C-NMR, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Further, the synthesized CSHQ Schiff base was used as an adsorbent for the removal of Cu(II) from aqueous solution. The adsorption of Cu(II) onto CSHQ was strongly dependent on the pH value, and the optimum pH value obtained was pH 5. Among the pseudo-first-order (PFO), pseudo-second-order (PSO), and intraparticle diffusion model simulation, the experimental data followed PSO kinetics well. The Cu(II) adsorption process onto CSHQ obeyed the Langmuir isotherm model well rather than the Freundlich and Sips isotherm models; this suggested that a monolayer adsorption occurred on the surface of CSHQ. From the overall results, we found that Cu(II) was adsorbed onto CSHQ through oxygen, nitrogen and pyridine nitrogen donor atoms and that CSHQ could be a promising adsorbent for water treatment. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Desperate Housewives
George Bush learns you can't go home again.
Look Who's Talking: Over the past four years, the press has written hundreds of articles describing the Bush White House as "tight-lipped." How do reporters know this? The Bush White House told them. "It's not our job to be sources," Andrew Card told Ken Auletta of the New Yorker last year. "The taxpayers don't pay us to leak!"
I guess we should ask for our money back. According to Karl Rove's lawyer, it depends on what the meaning of "leak" is. As always, Rove is on message: He's still fighting for freedom.
Whatever happens to Rove, Matt Cooper's e-mails prove that the Bush White House spins the press every bit as hard as past administrations. The Rove affair should put to rest the self-congratulatory nonsense that Bush officials are too disciplined to leak to the press. What sets this White House apart is that so few officials actually know what's going on, the top brass has to do all the leaking.
All the News That's Fed to Print: Here's a little secret that no White House—and no White House press corps—wants you to find out: Most leaks are on purpose. With rare exceptions, White House leaks don't come from whistle-blowers or staffers with scores to settle. They're deliberate, carefully planned, and signed off on at the highest levels. For every Deep Throat, there are a hundred Karl Roves.
White Houses orchestrate leaks for the same reason Rove talked to Cooper: They want to shape or drive the story. In the Clinton White House, we didn't endanger the lives of secret agents by blowing their covers. But we routinely gave selected reporters a sneak peak at upcoming presidential policy announcements. The Bush White House did the same thing just the other day.
No reporter will win a Pulitzer for being spoon-fed these scoops—and the White House official who does the talking will get a pat on the back, not a trip to the woodshed. (Special bonus: No jail time, either!) But White House officials and White House reporters are tight-lipped about them because these leaks are fake and somewhat ridiculous, like teleprompters or the congressional auto-pen.
The Rock: Michael Deaver, who practically invented the fake White House, told the New Yorker that the Bush crowd is "the most disciplined White House in history." But that discipline isn't because the President walks the halls of the Old Executive Office Building with a cattle prod. It's because they don't know anything.
When I started in the Clinton White House in January 1993, I received 20 press calls a day. By March, my phone had stopped ringing altogether. I wish I could say my iron discipline, dedication, loyalty, and love of country were the reason. But the truth is, like most staffers in the Bush White House, I was too far out of the loop even to fake it. ... 11:31 A.M. (link)
Monday, July 11, 2005 The Long Goodbye: According to well-informed and unindicted rumormonger Robert Novak, Chief Justice William Rehnquist will announce any moment that he has hung up his Gilbert and Sullivan robes for the last time. His resignation won't change the court, but it could dramatically change the court battle. If Rehnquist joins Sandra Day O'Connor in retirement, the key question will be who—if anyone—has the capability to fight a two-front war: conservatives, liberals, or the White House? Here's a brief history of two-front war: One way or another, it's a losing battle. Napoleon conquered Europe but couldn't beat the Russians. Hitler knew better but made the same mistake. Bin Laden slipped through our fingers in Afghanistan while the Pentagon diverted forces to Iraq. Hitler, Napoleon, Rumsfeld ... you can see why Neas, Gray, and Rove might not want to add their names to that list. The conventional wisdom is that a two-front war would be bad news for Democrats, who have the most to lose. But Democrats aren't the only ones who should be nervous. A two-justice war could turn into a nightmare for everybody, depending on which strategy Bush picks. You Scratch My Back: For the last 10 days since O'Connor announced her retirement, we've seen the competing pressures on the White House. Pro-life conservatives want a court that will expand states' rights and stop abortion. Pro-business conservatives want a court that will curtail states' rights and stop trial lawyers. O'Connor's retirement scares the White House because the president might have to choose one faction over the other. A double vacancy means he can bow to both: Give the social conservatives a justice the business crowd doesn't mind, and give the corporate conservatives a justice the pro-lifers can stand. Then both factions can logroll for each other's nominee. This strategy is more than enough to placate Bush's business wing, which views noisy confirmation battles as a distraction from the more important work of doling out tax cuts and subsidies. Faced with a mainstream conservative and an activist one, Democrats also might decide to let one hostage go. Potential Waterloo: The right wing, however, might not go so quietly. For pro-lifers, the second verse is same as the first: They want every nominee to be a vote they can count on. If the president has to disappoint the right by picking one mainstream conservative, he might try to atone by making his other choice a card-carrying extremist. While that might satisfy the right, such a nominee would be much easier for Democrats to Bork. If the Senate confirmed the moderate but blocked the right-winger, the odd man out would turn into an even bigger martyr—and ensuing right-wing demands would grow harder, not easier, to meet. Double or Nothing: Some Democrats fear that Bush will use two vacancies to do what the right wants and flood the zone with two activist conservatives. He has a flair for the bold and unreasonable and might conclude that his best shot to get at least one hard-right candidate confirmed is to nominate two. Against two strong conservative nominees, Democrats might indeed have to cut their losses and accept one. But in the field of activist conservatives, it's hard enough to find one who won't have some trouble threading the needle. The Gang of 14, which prides itself on the virtue of political balance, would have a hard time accepting an unbalanced ticket. Liberal groups preparing to go in the ring with the far right see a twin billing as offering twice the targets. Oddly enough, that may be precisely the defining war that many liberals and conservatives want most, and the White House wants least. The biggest danger for Bush is that giving the right everything it wants on the court might be enough to wake the rest of the country, which will otherwise wait to watch the replay on Saturday Night Live. Gonzales, Gilbert and Sullivan, and an A.G. to Be Named Later: The real question is, what does Bush want? My guess is, he wants to promote his friend Alberto Gonzales, name the first Latino justice, and keep the right wing on the reservation. I happen to think Bush could accomplish all that with one vacancy; if he does what he wants, and not what the groups want, it should be even easier with two. In the end, the biggest advantage of having two picks is that you get to make them and the next president doesn't. So, instead of looking for a two-front war, Bush should go looking for a separate peace. Make history with Gonzales. Pick a Rehnquist conservative—creepy, but not wacky—as chief justice. If the ravenous right demands more, give them back the Justice Department, which might as well have a right-wing head considering how much right-wing dirty work it's doing. By the way, Rumsfeld has already weighed in with his advice. After the dual strain of Afghanistan and Iraq, the Pentagon just announced a review of its long-standing policy that the military should be able to win two wars at once. They're thinking about settling for one and a half. ... 7:55 A.M. (link)
Friday, July 8, 2005 The thing that I saw in your face George Orwell, Homage to Catalonia A Tale of Two Georges: Unlike President Bush, my favorite political philosopher is George Orwell. As we grieve for London after another totalitarian blitz, and wonder what to do, Orwell seems the best place to turn. There's a reason the right and left have spent the last 60 years trying to claim Orwell for themselves. His writing has all the qualities we find wanting in politics today: honesty, self-criticism, love of country, the courage to fight for his beliefs, and an equal fervor that any ideology loses meaning if it is not supported by fact. When London was under attack in World War II, Orwell wrote an essay entitled "England, Your England." The essay opens, "As I write, highly civilized human beings are flying overhead, trying to kill me," then goes on to describe the gentleness of "a land where the bus conductors are good-tempered and the policemen carry no revolvers" and the "privateness" of a people who love crossword puzzles, stamp collections, and above all, flowers. Orwell is brutally honest about what's wrong with Britain, from hypocrisy to class privilege – and yet, as in all his work, what's most striking is how deeply he loves his country anyway. That's exactly what Orwell didn't like about the political extremes of his day. Tories lived to protect wealth and privilege ("Only when their money and power are gone will the younger among them begin to grasp what century they are living in") and wrapped themselves in the flag without deserving it (" Patriotism has nothing to do with conservatism"). But he also worried about an intelligentsia badly severed "from the common culture of the country." His plea then rings true today: "Patriotism and intelligence will have to come together again. It is the fact that we are fighting a war, and a very peculiar kind of war, that may make this possible." In politics, all of us have a tendency to try to turn every piece of news to our advantage. Orwell took a longer view: the old debates still matter, but keep your eyes on the real enemy who is exploding bombs outside your window. For a few months after 9/11, the U.S. did just that. Politicians who might earlier have caned one another on the House floor stood together to sing the national anthem on the Capitol steps. When Bush chose to use 9/11 as a partisan issue in the 2002 midterms, he blew an unprecedented opportunity to change the tone of our politics for a generation. Ever since, like an old, scratched LP, our political debate has kept going back over the same rut, as if 9/11 never happened. The London bombings, every bit as direct an attack on freedom and decency, should have had the same galvanizing effect as 9/11. But as Andrew Sullivan and others report, that probably won't happen. Even though most Brits view yesterday as a ruthless, unprovoked attack on Britain, the debate after 7/7 may well be the same one they (and we) were having before it. Longtime Blair critic George Galloway fired the first shot: "We argued, as did the security services in this country, that the attacks on Afghanistan and Iraq would increase the threat of terrorist attack in Britain . . . . Tragically, Londoners have now paid the price of the government ignoring such warnings." On this side of the pond, Rush Limbaugh took the bait and fired back. President Bush did the world a terrible disservice turning the debate about 9/11 into a debate about Iraq. Let's not do the same with the debate about 7/7. The trouble with George Bush and George Galloway is that they don't read George Orwell. Try it this weekend, for England's sake and our own. ... 4:21 P.M. ( link)
No power can disinherit:
No bomb that ever burst
Shatters the crystal spirit.
Thursday, July 7, 2005 Off Base: Give Alberto Gonzales credit—for the first time in Bush's presidency, right-wingers are genuinely nervous that the President might not do everything they want. Until now, the Bush White House made it easy: Send Karl Rove your shopping list and wait for a reply e-mail with the number to track your order. While such first-class customer service has kept conservatives happy, it spoiled them as well. Now that they have a real fight on their hands, they don't know which buttons to push. After all that care and feeding from the White House, conservative groups no doubt assume they have the power to cross names off Bush's list. In the end, perhaps they will. But their first salvo—an all-out attack on Gonzales—seems to be having the opposite effect. Bush has testily defended his friend two days in a row, and the White House had to tell the right to pipe down. Yesterday, Bush lashed out at "special interest groups, particularly those on the extremes that are trying to exploit this opportunity ... for their own fund-raising capabilities." In five days, the far right has managed to make the president do what the rest of us have tried in vain to get him to do for the last five years: go after his base. Bush has finally discovered the downside of interest-group conservatism. One morning you wake up and realize you're not president anymore—you're not even executive director. The right wing wants the White House to think that if Bush picks Gonzales, conservatives will take to the streets and weep like Parisians. But from a sheer political standpoint, the case for Gonzales isn't even a close call. No matter how much conservatives pout, Bush will do far more to expand the Republican party's reach by putting the first Latino on the court. Gonzales will probably be a much more reliable conservative than the right fears—and their attacks guarantee that the press and many Democrats will hail him as a moderate. Like any president, Bush is interested in his legacy. Even if he packs the court with Ashcrofts, Luttigs, and Coulters, he can't count on them to secure his place in history. There's no guarantee Roe v. Wade would stay overturned for long, and an activist court might drive the Republican Party back into minority status. Appointing the first Latino Supreme Court justice is a legacy no one can take away. Bush has done the right's bidding for so long, he may not know how to quit. But remember the first rule of interest-group politics: If you can't pander to the one you love, pander to the one you're with. Political Bonus: Picking a right-winger ensures that the battle will be about abortion, an issue that politically savvy Republicans don't like to fight in public. By contrast, if Democrats choose to fight Gonzales, they'll only help Bush cement Republican inroads with Latinos. Some Democrats won't be able to help themselves from going after the Gonzales torture memos. Rove's consolation prize to the right: another chance to fight Democrats on terror—and now there's not only 9/11, but 7/7. Honest Harry Reid joined Bush in attacking "the far right," and defended Gonzales as "qualified." At least he didn't say Gonzales is "not so bad." Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Counsels: If you've been worrying that the president would lose valuable time in the war on terror rereading Judge John Roberts' 1991 brief in Rust v. Sullivan, relax. Bush said yesterday he would let his "legal experts deal with the legal ramifications of legal opinions." He's going to assess "their character" and "their interests." Maybe the right should stop worrying about Roe and let Bush know which candidates have right-wing hobbies. We know Scalia likes to hunt. Of course, the justice most enthusiastic about Bush's hobby is Stephen Breyer, who botched his first job interview with Clinton because he was in so much pain from a bicycle injury. ... 12:54 P.M.
Update: While Washington gears up for a $100 million battle over the legal ramifications of Bush's next pick, the President reacted the same way as many Americans: "I'm not a lawyer, thankfully." He wasn't joking—that is his judicial philosophy. In 2004, it was practically his campaign slogan. In 1976, Al Gore was elected to Congress in his second year of law school. Best campaign slogan Gore never used: "I'm a law school dropout." ... 8:42 P.M. (link)
Take Me to Your Leaders: Sooner or later, you may find yourself wondering whether a political apparatchik like me can write honestly without fear of reprisal. A few years ago, for example, I wrote an op-ed in USA Today urging Major League Baseball to abandon its plans for contraction and give Washington a team. Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos wrote a terse letter to the editor pronouncing me "intemperate, abusive, and outrageous" as well as "irresponsible, uninformed and completely unfit to serve" the Democratic party. Such a nice man—it's a shame the Nationals are doing so well.
