Finishes quarter with over $2 million cash on hand
NEW BRITAIN--With a groundswell of Connecticut contributions, Chris Murphy continued to build grassroots support across the state, raising $650,000 in the third quarter and bringing the total raised to nearly $2.7 million with over $2 million cash on hand for his campaign for the Senate.
"This is the way we're going to win this campaign--by building support and momentum among local, Connecticut donors," said Murphy. "Of the contributions our campaign received this quarter, a full 86% were from Connecticut and 84% were $250 or less. I'm so grateful for the strong continued support from so many people across our state."
Fast facts about Chris Murphy's third quarter fundraising:
* 84% of contributions this quarter are $250 or less
* 86% of contributions are from Connecticut
* Over 1,000 new contributors this quarter
* Over $2 million cash-on-hand
Over 4,500 contributions from Connecticut since the campaign kicked off.

In addition to Murphy's growing grassroots momentum, he was also endorsed by 41,000 strong Connecticut Education Association, and announced a new personal endorsement every weekday throughout the month of September.

Fall into Fun
New season brings fresh faces and old favorites to North Bay art scene
By Greg Cahill, Shelley Lawrence, Patrick Sullivan, and Marina Wolf
DON'T BE AFRAID. That deep rumble you hear in the distance isn't the sound of approaching thunder--so everyone in Rio Nido can relax, at least for the moment. No, the only storm front headed our way is the deluge about to be unleashed upon the North Bay by the fall arts season. And make no mistake: the end of summer will bring a flood of activity to our area. Before you know it, we'll be up to our eyeballs in the arts, happily swimming through the high seas of culture with the likes of Marcel Marceau, basking on a river of notes at the Russian River Jazz Festival, and enjoying liquid of another kind at the 15th annual Something's Brewing beer tasting. Read all about it in our selective preview below, but just make sure you're back on dry land before your skin starts to prune up.

ROGERS, ARTHUR BIRCH (1871–1953). Arthur Birch Rogers, businessman, was born on August 10, 1871, at Waxahachie, Texas, the son of James C. and Elizabeth (Wilson) Rogers. The family moved to San Marcos in 1874, and Rogers attended public schools and Coronal Institute. He established furniture, undertaking, and cemetery businesses in San Marcos that spanned the first half of the twentieth century. He was married to Irene Swift on September 25, 1896, and they had four children. He was one of the organizers and a president of the Hays County Fair Association in the 1920s. Rogers is best known as developer of the headwaters of the San Marcos River as a tourist and recreational attraction. In 1928 he built a hotel and a golf course there; in the 1940s his son, Paul J. Rogers, began development of the Aquarena Springsqv tourist complex, which included several historical exhibits. Rogers died in San Marcos on April 26, 1953.

Resolution: standard / high Figure 6. CaMKIIα-CreERT2-mediated recombination in the rat brain. Functional recombination using different CaMKIIα-CreERT2 founder lines was assessed
with tamoxifen-induced double transgenic CaMKIIα-CreERT2/CAG-loxP.EGFP rats. Double
transgenic rats were injected with tamoxifen for five consecutive days. Ten days after
the last injection, brain sections were prepared and analyzed by EGFP immunohistochemistry.
EGFP expression, which indicates Cre-mediated recombination, is restricted to forebrain
structures. Recombination efficiency is dependent on the Cre driver lines used. (A) CaMKIIα-CreERT2 line 327, (B) line 396, (C) line 408 and (D) line 404. EGFP: enhanced green fluorescent protein.

text: I HOPE IT'S NOT OVER AND GOOD-BYE: SELECTED POEMS OF EVERETTE MADDOX Edited by Ralph Adamo University of New Orleans Press, $16.95 By Susan Larson Book editor Everette Maddox, who died in 1989, is one of those New Orleans writers whose legend lives on, haunting the Maple Leaf Bar, perhaps. An Alabama boy who moved here in 1976, he came to a place that seemed perfectly constructed for his own doomed romanticism, his love of drink, his unique sense of humor. This edition of his selected poems, ably edited by his friend Ralph Adamo, should serve to introduce his work to new readers, those who haven't encountered his unforgettable voice. As Adamo writes in his introduction, Maddox is overdue for a serious biography. "While he lived a more public life than most poets (forced into public places as much by years of homelessness as by choice), the 'real' Everett Maddox remains concealed in the myth, obscured by pipe smoke and alcohol fumes, by the inevitable projections upon him by those who knew him and those who have only heard the stories. We each have our own Everette, and then we have the poems." The poems in this volume are sad and sweet and funny, elegant yet accessible, driven by the sound of the human voice, the storyteller enchanting, wooing, mourning. He writes poems to the river, styles himself as Huck Finn, admires the moon, that Alabama moon or the moonlight on the Mississippi. The title of this book comes from his poem, "Moon Fragment," when he speaks directly to the reader: "Well, what is it all about? you//ask. What does it mean? You have me//there. It means, whatever this is between// you and me, I hope it's not over, and good-bye." These are poems rooted precisely in geography, both of the South and of the human heart. When Maddox writes "Even, Odd," for his McMain High School students, he tells them to put their hands over the hearts and listen. "That's your heart laughing at the language," he writes. "The language wants to love you: Let it." That love affair with language, ever hopeful, never wears thin, does it? These poems are a kind of steadfast testimony to its power and consolation. ••••••• Book editor Susan Larson can be reached at email@example.com or 504.826.3457.

Cybernetic prosthetics
Over the past month, I've been able to figure out that cybernetic prosthesis is possible. I've deduced a way that this could be done, but I need a biologist's and or an engineer's opinion on this before I get any funding, just to make sure that I'm not going into the realm of science fiction. I have no want to actually profit off of this idea, I just want people to be able to live their lives again, or live in a new way.
I've come up with only one possible idea that is feasible, that is, at least, for the connections to the nervous system. I'm still having trouble trying to figure out what to use as the medium to use as the, not sure if these are the right words, transistor to different parts of the limb/body.
Sorry for the bad English, trying to wake up while writing this type of idea can be bad, so, again, sorry.
Sep 19 2012: So in this one anime called Fullmetal Alchemist, there's a concept that they have called Automail, which is basically mechanical limbs.
It's most definitely possible imo, and it is also a cool concept.

Partagas 1845: the rebirth of Partagas
Draped in a unique Ecuadorian Habano viso wrapper and generously filled with an intricate blend of long-fillers including Dominican Piloto Cubano ligero, Nicaraguan Guardian viso, Esteli seco, ASP seco, and a Connecticut Habano Broadleaf binder, Partagas 1845 was bred to deliver ample flavor. And deliver it does - this cigar is overflowing with hearty, rich tobacco notes, sweetness, coffee, pepper, and cedar. That hallmark Partagas smoothness remains, but the main core of flavors is a drastic departure. And that's a good thing. If you like robust, flavorful, boutique-style handmades, Partagas 1845 is calling your name.

Depending on where you live in the country, chances are the weather has you in a deliriously good mood this week -- after a long few months of blizzards, monsoons and whipping winds, it's finally sunny and light and almost spring.
And it's finally time to start shopping for warmer weather. A great jumping off point? Ann Taylor's fashion-forward selection of airy, versatile, high-quality blouses. The store is currently unbeatable for shapely silhouettes in perfect neutrals and with eye-catching details.
The best part about it? This weekend, all full-price items at AnnTaylor.com are 25% if you buy two, 40% off if you buy three or more (with the code ANNSTYLE at checkout). I can tell inventories are already flying out the door, so log on as soon as your boss isn't looking and click your way to spring wardrobe bliss. A few scenarios:
Score three great tops for a steal
I'm honestly in love with all three of these shirts. There's the cut-in ruffle shell -- its divinely draped neck is effortlessly glamorous, meaning you don't have to bother with a bunch of accessories. Then there's the shimmering ruched top, universally flattering and rendered in three lovely hues (I love the peach color -- and I don't say that too often, but it's perfect). Finally, the piece that I promise you'll wear forever -- the silk T-shirt, usually the property of higher-end designers, makes a welcome appearance at an accessible store. Total: $98.40 before shipping, $109.35 after.
One gorgeous top, two fun add-ons
Some of AT's tops can run you over $100. So if you've got your eye on one of the luscious ones at the higher end of the price range, no problem -- go ahead and put it in your cart, and then browse AT's generous selection of bottoms, accessories and jewelry to find some coordinating elements.
One suggestion: pair the delightful silk contrast button top with cropped black chinos and this double-strand pearl bracelet finished with a lilac bow. Total: $104.40 before shipping, $115.35 after.
Take the 25% off and fly solo
OK, I know I went over with those last two, so I'll try to compensate with this one. If you're just hankering for one great blouse, pick one that would be normally out of your price range -- then choose a little full-price item so that you can get the 25% off both. For instance: treat yourself to this silk petal top and a lacy bralette for $87 before shipping, $97.95 after.

I've been scrolling thru the recipe book and am curious what texture changes will occur if I don't heat the milk? We prefer to preserve all the beneficial enzymes and bacteria but I'd like to acheive a better texture. We do what you're calling the fast method all the time and I love it right from the machine, but it gets too hard after being in the freezer a few hours. What temp do you heat the milk to? BTW-we use our own raw goat milk to make ice cream.
ReplyDeleteWow, this looks awesome! Ice cream is one of my favorite desserts, and I would love to try some new flavors :-)

From the outside, it's just a warehouse, sitting somewhere near Fairview. You might drive past it without every realizing just how special it is.
This is the barrel house for Asheville's Wicked Weed Brewing Co. Inside are oak barrels, filled with a precious nectar: Wicked Weed's sour Belgian-style ales like the spectacular Back Angel American Wild Ale, made with tart cherries.
For now, about 20 barrels are aging away. Soon more will join them said Wicked Weed's Walt Dickinson. The warehouse was built to handle hundreds of these old wine and bourbon barrels, all of them filled with sour beer. ...

Table of Contents | Message Board | Printable Version LITERARY/HISTORICAL INFORMATION Robinson Crusoe was Daniel Defoe's first novel, written when he was almost sixty. The adventure novel was an instant, popular success and was soon translated into German. Through the years, it has remained an often-read classic. Although Defoe was not the first one to tell the story of a sailor marooned on a deserted island, his tale seemed very contemporary. It was inspired by the true story of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor marooned for many years on the island of Yernandez, an uninhabited island in the Pacific. There were three written accounts of Selkirk's experiences, and it is likely that Defoe read one of them.

Well, it's official. I finally gave up to the temptation to try online dating and thrust myself into the online dating stratosphere by signing up with M.com. As a busy professional I don't get enough opportunities to meet new and exciting people and hope the ozone rich online stratosphere will help me change this. But, enough about the stratosphere and more about me :) I am originally from Europe and hence drive a stick shift and watch soccer games. I love the outdoors, spending time with friends, having a good laugh, dreaming and challenging myself. I am spontaneous, easy going, and love to, and know how to make people laugh. Skiing, mountaineering and cooking are passions of mine. Even though my career is important to me, there are more important things in life and they should take priority when the right person comes along. I am looking first and foremost for a best friend to share the challenges and rewards of life with. She has to be a person of integrity, easy-going, passionate about life, independent and no stranger to humor and adventure. Can this be you?

I had a lovely Mother's Day. We had our traditional Mother's Day lunch at Leonore's house on Saturday. And Chloe also "lost" her first tooth. Apparently you don't tell Grandpa Rey that you have a loose tooth because he will yank it out unexpectedly.
Losing her tooth was quite traumatic for Chloe. Tears have been shed over the loss of her lower chomper. And she worriedly asked me, "What will happen if I lose all my teeth and then I can't chew my food?"
In fact she hasn't even turned it in to the Tooth Fairy yet. Don told her that she has to give up her tooth to the tooth fairy if she wants her money. But she cried and said she didn't want the tooth fairy to take it and turn it into magic.
So then I said that we could just write the tooth fairy a note and ask if she could just leave the tooth and also some money. (Brilliant idea, me thought)
However, Don nixed this idea and privately told me that this is how people grow up and can't make decisions. "You can't have your cake and eat it too," he says. Apparently it is our job as parents to teach our children this crappy life lesson. pfft. "If you can't make a decision about a tooth when you are 5...you can't pick a major when you are 18."
And since I couldn't pick a major when I was 18, or decide if I wanted to get married at 23, I think he might have a valid point.
She told me today that she is ready to turn the tooth in so she can get money for Disneyland.
Is the tooth fairy doling out 100 dollar bills these day?
Because if so, I might pull a few of my own teeth out.
Ever since Chloe lost her tooth, she has been speaking with a lisp.
And to be honest, I miss Chloe's non-lispy voice.
I am so grateful for my children who have made me a Mother. One of the things that was hard to wrap my brain around after my Mom died, was that I had no one to call "Mom" anymore. And I so missed that word and everything that it meant. I am so grateful that I have that word back in my life, and it is used, it seems like, a billion times every day. I love being able to repay all the things my Mom did for me, back to my own children. And in that way, part of my heart has been healed, and I feel connected to her. Because motherhood is a chain that can never be broken. There is nothing in the world as strong as a Mother's love for her children.
I also thought about my friends yesterday who find Mother's Day to be a difficult day. Friends who have lost children, or can't have children for various reasons, and really feel that void in their life. And other friends who have lost their Mothers as well. I want them to know their value as a woman. Motherhood means so much more than physically bearing children. I have had many mother figures in my life, and obviously they did not physically bring me into this world. But they have been "mothers"-they've supported me and loved me and comforted me like only a woman can. I don't mean to sound trite, I know that nothing can replace a child or your Mother. I just know that everything will work out in the end. And women are just...awesome.

Strawberry Rhubarb Shortcake
- Total Time:
- 2 hr 30 min
- Prep:
- 30 min
- Inactive:
- 1 hr 15 min
- Cook:
- 45 min
- Yield:
- 10 to 12 servings
- Level:
- Easy
- Cake:
- 2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, softened, plus extra for greasing the pan
- 2 cups cake flour, plus extra for flouring the pan
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Filling:
- 1 pound rhubarb (about 4 stalks), cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup sugar
- One 16-ounce container strawberries, trimmed and sliced (about 3 cups)
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- Whipped Cream:
- 1 1/2 cups cold heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan with butter and dust with flour, tapping out the excess. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
Beat the butter in a large bowl until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar and continue to beat until very fluffy, about 2 minutes longer. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs and cream. Add half the flour mixture and half the egg mixture to the creamed butter and beat until combined. Repeat with the remaining flour and egg mixture. Add the lemon zest and vanilla and beat the batter on medium-high speed for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
Transfer the batter to the prepared cake pan, spread the top evenly and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top sprigs back to the touch, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pan 10 minutes, and then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
While the cake bakes and cools, make the filling: Combine the rhubarb with the sugar and 1/4 cup water in a medium pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and continue to cook, stirring, until the rhubarb cooks down into a thick puree, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool completely, and then fold in half the strawberries. Stir the sugar into the remaining berries.
For the whipped cream: When ready to assemble the cake, whip the cream with the sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
Using a serrated knife, slice the cake in half horizontally and place the bottom half on a cake stand or serving plate, cut-side up. Spread with 1 cup of the whipped cream, stopping about 1/2 inch from the edge of the cake and top with the strawberry-rhubarb mixture. Place the second half of the cake, cut-side down, over the strawberry-rhubarb filling and spread the remaining whipped cream over top, going close to the edge of the cake. Garnish with the remaining sliced strawberries.
Cook's Note: To make this cake ahead, you can fully assemble and chill up to 4 hours ahead of time without the sliced strawberry and sugar garnish. Top with the sliced strawberries before serving.

Where Music Lives: At the Collingswood Senior Community Center in Camden County
Music lives in South Jersey, where WRTI's Meridee Duddleston finds jazz creating connections in the neighborhood. The "Jazz Bridge" project deepens the region's rich jazz roots with a series of neighborhood concerts featuring the area's great jazz musicians. At the same time, the concerts enable the non-profit Jazz Bridge to provide emergency financial support to local jazz musicians in crisis. It's a win-win.
The concerts, at five sites in the Philadelphia area, tackle an all-too-common problem for jazz musicians and bring live jazz to close to home.
Meridee Duddleston attended a "First Thursday"concert at the Collingswood Senior Community Center to see how it works. The evening featured the distinguished Bob Pollitt Jazz Quartet: Bob Pollitt on saxophone, Henry Miller on drums, Craig Thomas on bass. and Bill Schilling on piano.

Once Upon A Country Yugoslavia, RIP
Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Jove fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another.
- Homer's Iliad, Book 1
It took the Achaeans ten years to finally overcome the defenses of Troy, and then only with a ruse of a large wooden horse, which the gullible Trojans brought into their city ignorant of the warriors hidden inside.
Eleven years is what it took the Empire to destroy Yugoslavia, through wars no less – and oft more – bloody, treaties no less false, speeches far more cynical and goodwill no less treacherous than those in the first epic of the Western civilization.
On March 14, 2002, the leaders of Montenegro, Serbia and Yugoslavia sat down with the European legate Javier Solana – who three years ago headed a vicious attack on their country – and agreed to kill Yugoslavia, erase her from the map, bury her name and legacy, and in her place establish… well, nothing, really.
The "state" that Vojislav Kostunica, Zoran Djindjic and Milo Djukanovic signed, and Javier Solana concocted in some political petri dish, is now "Serbia and Montenegro," just as all the US State Department maps read all these years the Empire refused to recognize the state led by Slobodan Milosevic. Busy with the usual malicious rehashes of fabricated history, reports in the West gave few details. What did emerge, however, is telling. Apart from cartographic convenience, other aspects of the treaty unmistakably identify its greatest benefactor.
Both Serbia and Montenegro will have their own Presidents, their own currencies, customs and financial systems. Theoretically, the defense and foreign affairs should be under joint jurisdiction. But military service would be served only in the conscripts' home states, effectively creating separate Serbian and Montenegrin armed forces. Ambassadors to, say, the UN would rotate between Serbia and Montenegro, creating de facto separate foreign policies. So the joint legislature and the joint President it chooses would have nothing to do.
Normally, a powerless government is a good thing for people's liberties. In this case, however, the governments of two republics would retain the near-absolute power they currently have, and the "federal" government would simply be there for show and to waste the impoverished taxpayers' money.
Finally, the agreement is only valid for three years, whereupon any member of the "union" that secedes is guaranteed recognition by the EU. The way it was framed, secession is pretty much automatic unless both partners decide otherwise. If Djukanovic stays in power, or is replaced by one of his more rabidly separatist allies, there is no chance Montenegro's regime won't opt for recognition.
The new "state" is but a vampire, an undead monstrosity which is destined to live for three more years until the EU mercifully stakes it through the heart. Meanwhile, it will subsist by sucking blood from the people on which it was imposed.
The General's Papers
Only a day after Yugoslavia was dissolved, it was betrayed. Military security officers arrested the retired general Momcilo Perisic as he met with an American diplomat in a roadside inn south of Belgrade. The military claimed Perisic was passing classified documents to the American, leading to rampant speculation that the former general, a bitter foe of Slobodan Milosevic, was trying to turn over evidence of the former president's involvement in alleged atrocities in Kosovo.
The US was "outraged" and issued a "sharp rebuke," but that was to be expected. No state – especially not the Empire – ever admits to espionage, as there is something inherently dirty in the whole process. Usually the pattern is denial, followed by expulsion of the compromised diplomat and a gentlemanly agreement not to bring the matter up again. Again, the Empire does not follow the custom. It will most likely attempt to pass this off as an "unwarranted detention," demand an official groveling apology and maybe even the sacking of those responsible. Serbia is a vassal, after all – how dare it have the temerity to arrest Imperial legates as they go about their business!?
Perisic's fate is less certain. He went out of his way to meet with the US diplomat, so they were probably not just out for coffee and sports talk. If the Yugoslav – or whatever it will be called – military produces materials they claim Perisic was passing to the Americans, he may be damned in the court of public opinion and even tried for treason.
Passing classified documents to the Americans, while legally treasonous, pales in comparison to what Perisic's boss – Djindjic – has done over the past year or so. Thus throwing Perisic to the wolves might help Djindjic cloud the issue, so the general may yet rue the day he threw his lot in with the "pragmatist" Prime Minister.
The official excuse of European and American meddlers in the issue was that Montenegro's secession would embolden the Bosnian Serbs and Albanians in Kosovo and northwestern Macedonia. The papers are very fond of it, as are government, NATO and UN spokespeople. As usual, this is utter nonsense.
Unlike the Bosnian Serb Republic, Kosovo or northern Macedonia, Montenegro used to be a constituent member of the old Communist federation, with a full right to secession. This right was retained even under the now-dead Federal Yugoslav Constitution. No one in Serbia has ever disputed the existence of that right, merely the character of those who advocated its use. And even so, at the end of last October Serbian politicians were perfectly happy to stand aside and let Montenegro's voters choose their fate. This is where Solana and the Empire intervened.
Three months later, Solana accomplished yet another "triumph of Western policy," right after his vaunted "peacemaking" in Macedonia. And here is why.
One of the provisions of the treaty was that both states would continue to pay their foreign debt jointly, and if one could not shoulder its share, the other would have to. Some took this to mean that Serbia got a raw deal, since Montenegro has only 650,000 inhabitants and a lot more foreign debt. Others think Montenegro got cheated of its rightful recognition now. But it is really the EU creditors who are profiting from this deal, at the expense of them both. Whatever happens, Europe will get its pound of flesh…
Solana's concoction, admittedly, is better than civil war, the Black Plague, or some form of apocalypse. So is just about anything else.
With Serbia and Montenegro as independent states, their politicians could no longer scapegoat the other republic for all the ills of their misrule. People in both countries would have been forced to actually shoulder responsibility for their rulers and their actions. Many in Serbia think that without foreign subsidies and smuggling, Montenegro would be as economically viable as Nauru, minus the phosphates. They will have to wait for three more years to see if they were right.
Historically long separated, the two lands have spiritually always been one. Only recently did Djukanovic's regime embark on a campaign of carving out a separate ethnic, religious, cultural and even linguistic identity. His followers' virulent separatism would shock their ancestors, who considered themselves Serbs and wrote great epics to that effect. Even the last king of Montenegro, Nikola Petrovic, wrote of "Serbs no longer being slaves" in his famous ode Onam', Onamo ("Yonder, Over There").
It no longer matters, it seems. The "two eyes in one head" have finally been gouged out. Driven by their lust for power and dazzled by Imperial favors – whether just promised or actually delivered – the people who swore to protect and defend Yugoslavia decided to kill it. The fact that they did so with the help of a man who led the NATO aggression in 1999 only adds insult to injury.
The dead, however, feel no pain. Only the living.

Katha Pollitt ["$hotgun Weddings," Feb. 4] makes many very excellent points about the horrors of "bridefare," but she does not address a major tragedy of the benefits-for-wedlock policies--i.e., the oppressively heterosexist and homophobic assumptions and ideology that undergird such programs.
Though one might never know it from pop-culture representations of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, a recent report from the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, analyzing the impact of welfare reform on GLBT people, estimates that there are 900,000 to 2.5 million low-income GLBT people in the United States, many of whom have children to support. This excellent report (see www.ngltf.org) details many other ways current and proposed welfare policies and practices are detrimental to GLBT people and their children. For example, in addition to the potential for discrimination and mistreatment associated with coming out to their caseworkers, current policies that privilege marriage often serve to coerce lesbian and bisexual women who apply for public assistance to establish the paternity of potentially violent former male partners. These policies can also force GLBT minors to return to homophobic parents--the same parents who may have kicked them out of the house for being queer--in order to receive benefits.
Not surprisingly, many of the same right-wing ideologues who promote bridefare are also pushing, among other things, a constitutional amendment (nicknamed "super-DOMA") that would bar same-sex unions, as well as legal bans on adoptions by GLBT people. Those on the right are not interested in aiding this type of "family formation"--they would much rather punish GLBT people in need of public assistance and use antipoverty policy as another way to further their campaigns of stigma and hate.
New York City
Jack Newfield felt called upon to denigrate several other athletes--all of them black--while exalting Muhammad Ali ["The Meaning of Muhammad," Feb. 4] as America's "Dalai Lama, who personifies peace and harmony." Jackie Robinson was criticized for becoming a Republican and Michael Jordan was faulted for being unwilling to do anything controversial.
In his race-conscious comparisons, Newfield was grossly unfair to two black former heavyweight fighters. Jack Johnson, the first black champion, low-rated by Newfield as an "apolitical hedonist," was in fact a proud man whose defiance of the lynch-law standards of his time aroused a frenzied national search for a "White Hope" to dethrone him.
Joe Louis, whom Newfield scorns for being "modest" and a "patriot," was assertive enough in the ring to be "the greatest" with his fists (if not in self-praise) during the twelve years of his championship. If Louis is charged with being a "patriot" because of his readiness to serve in World War II, it may be noted that there were 11 million of us, black and white, who shared his view that the war against Hitler was a just war.
Appearing with Paul Robeson at a tribute to black war veterans, Joe Louis expressed warm support for that redbaited artist and activist. The champion hailed Robeson as "my friend and a great fighter for the Negro people," and said, "There are some people who don't like the way Paul Robeson fights for my people. Well, I say that Paul is fighting for what all of us want, and that's freedom to be a man."
Thank you so much for your coverage of the campus unrest of our times ["War on Campus," Dec. 3]. Professor Berthold is not the only one under attack at the University of New Mexico. Students, faculty and those from the campus community who question, demonstrate or educate about "the war on terrorism" are scorned by a local politician and the shrill campus Republicans. My English 102 students struggled hard to understand the events of September 11 and beyond, and they deserve the respect of those who claim to stand for our foundational freedoms. One freedom that is often overlooked is the right of intellectually curious students to have access to information so as to formulate their own educated opinions. Letters to the campus newspaper demonstrate a variety of positions on our current war. They also show Professor Berthold to be a very popular teacher, even when students disagree with the positions he takes.
Los Angeles
Neither I nor frontpagemagazine.com have ever called for the firing of anyone from any university for expressing views that are leftist, idiotic, traitorous or otherwise, as David Glenn implies in his article. One of my employees--a young graduate of UNC--did make an emotional statement to this effect, which Glenn quoted, which is fine. But since I myself disagree with the statement, which did not appear in my magazine, I should not be accused of hypocrisy on free speech issues by Glenn or anyone else. My issue with so-called teach-ins was their totalitarian exclusion of opposing views. It ill behooves leftists who have not uttered a word of protest or concern while the conservative viewpoint has been purged from the faculties of virtually every major university in the country--including those that provide subsidies to Nation editors--to pose as defenders of academic freedom.
Oakland, Calif.
David Glenn exposes the inevitable result of the "hostile environment" cabal, which is one sad inevitable result of identity politics. When the focus is exclusively on race or sex, what do you expect? That pro-Israeli shills wouldn't see criticism of Israel as anti-Semitism? Such could only happen here in California, where Cal students bum-rushed the Daily Californian for running David Horowitz's stupid anti-reparations ad instead of directing readers to consider the source and let Horowitz hang himself. The left has suffered because of people who have to begin every political statement with the words "as a...(fill in the blank)." Only when it returns to emphasizing how we've all been injured will it help address the real gaps in our lives.
New York City
David Glenn refers to the editors of the pernicious New York Pest saying they were "rethinking their support" for increased CUNY funding because faculty have dared to criticize US policy in Afghanistan. What a joke! Both the malignant New York trash papers, the Pest and the Daily Ooze, have been enemies of City University for years. They have never let mere truth interfere with their endless drumfire of defamation of the university, its faculty and its students. The trustees (busily trying to suppress student and faculty dissent) and the chancellor have never seen fit to respond to these dishonest tabloid attacks. Shamefully, instead of doing their job, which is to defend the university as a free space for the debate of any and all public issues without censorship or interference, they prefer to attack unpopular views on campus and meddle irresponsibly in curricular matters beyond their competence. That is a greater menace to the fundamental moral and intellectual health of our society than crazed terrorists or anthrax-laden mail.
Chico, Calif.
David Horowitz says that he and FrontPage shouldn't be stigmatized for comments made on NPR by one of his junior editors. Fair enough. Let's see what FrontPage itself had to say (www.frontpagemag.com/guestcolumnists/oswell09-21-01.htm). FrontPage describes the September 17 teach-in on terrorism, sponsored by UNC's Progressive Faculty Network, as a "nauseating" "shameful" exercise in "spewing hatred for America." Fine, fine, fine. Far be it from The Nation to discourage vigorous polemic. But then there's an editorial box below the article: "Tell the good folks at UNC-Chapel Hill what you think of their decision to allow anti-American rallies on their state-supported campus. Chancellor James Moeser can be reached at...," followed by phone number and e-mail address. This call was not simply tucked into a corner of the website. According to the Daily Tar Heel, Horowitz's staff aggressively faxed the article to right-wing radio hosts and other media outlets.
Note that the editorial box did not say, "Here are the e-mail addresses of the professors who spoke at the teach-in. Write to them and point out where their logic has gone astray." (Had this been the request, I might have been tempted to join in myself. Personally, I lean toward Christopher Hitchens's view of the war.)
Nor did it say, as Horowitz's letter implies: "Write to Chancellor Moeser and complain about UNC's double standards--the university gives a platform to leftists but suppresses conservative voices." For there is no evidence that UNC has done any such thing. In early October, the College Republicans sponsored a "patriotic rally" with no interference from the university. Moeser, whose office was besieged by angry phone calls instigated by FrontPage, was no more and no less responsible for the Progressive Faculty Network's teach-in than for the College Republicans' rally.
Beneath the coy phrasing, there is really only one meaning to FrontPage's "Tell the good folks...". It's impossible to parse that sentence as anything other than a call for censorship. In his NPR appearance, Horowitz protégé Scott Rubush at least had the courage to make the call in plain language.
Brooklyn, N.Y.
E.J. Graff's fantastic article on the gender movement makes one important error ["The M/F Boxes," Dec. 17]. Graff says that "all the major lesbian and gay organizations...have added transgendered folks to their mission statements." As a legal assistant at Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund, the nation's largest lesbian and gay legal group, I and others lobbied for such inclusion, only to be rebuffed by its overly cautious leadership. I'm pleased to report, however, that Lambda's board voted in January to include bisexual and transgendered people in their mission statement, falling in step with national groups like the ACLU.

The charm of the Eure Valley and Chartres, a stone's throw from Paris
When you come to the Eure Valley, stop off at Anet to see a royal gift and architectural masterpiece. Madly in love, Henri II offered
Château d'Anet
to his mistress Diane de Poitiers. On the entrance gate, sculptures of a nymph and stag with hounds evoke the mythological theme of Diana the hunter, in tribute to its famous owner.
Is there something about the Eure Valley that attracts lovesick kings and their mistresses? A century later Françoise d'Aubigné, better known as Madame de Maintenon, the future mistress and secret wife of Louis XIV, bought
the Château of Maintenon
Visitors can enjoy the cosy charm of her personal apartments and the grandeur of the galleries that were once much appreciated by the Sun King.
At the far end of the gardens designed by Le Nôtre, an aqueduct stands as a reminder of a monumental project intended to carry the waters of the Eure River all the way to the Château of Versailles. Keen filmgoers may even recognise the locations where Le Capitaine Fracasse, Fanfan la Tulipe and Le Professionnel were filmed.
To step back in time, stop off in Pierres, near Maintenon. Recreated around one of the oldest medieval farms in France,
the walled garden of Bois Richeux
combines medicinal plants, herbs and ancient vegetables, and provides an insight into the spirituality of the Middle Ages.
The beautiful city of
is an enchantment for visitors, thanks to its exceptional architectural heritage and the towering silhouette of its UNESCO World Heritage-listed
. Famous for its twin spires and as the perfect illustration of Gothic art, Notre-Dame cathedral reveals the splendour of its stained glass and the mystery of its maze.
Just a few streets away, on Place de la Poissonnerie, the Maison du Saumon or Maison de la Truie-qui-file is one of the most beautiful houses in Chartres. Give yourself up to the charm of the picturesque little streets with their master glassmakers, antiques dealers and crafts workshops...
Gourmets, meanwhile, will find plenty to whet their appetite in the city: Mentchikoffs, macaroons and Chartres pâté are just some of the local specialities to be tasted on the spot or taken away.
As far as activities are concerned, just a short distance from the Châteaux, the courses of
Château of Maintenon
will satisfy the keenest golfers. The former is a rolling, wooded course, while the second is flat and more technical, and lies in the shadow of the famous aqueduct.
For hikers, a wide choice of signposted paths offer a variety of views over the meanders of the river.
If you have a head for heights, you can also take to the skies in a
hot-air balloon
to enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views!
