The GOP's Next Internal Debate
This morning, Jeb Bush said some somewhat surprising things in a meeting with reporters, at least for a Republican. He noted that neither Ronald Reagan nor his father could be elected in today's GOP, and said in essence that Mitt Romney had moved too far to the right on immigration. He also said some of the things you'd expect a Republican to say, like that the blame for the current partisan atmosphere lies with President Obama, because he didn't seek common ground with Republicans enough. Anyone who has been watching politics for the last three and a half years knows how utterly insane this is, but in case you missed this tidbit, a bunch of influential congressional Republicans got together on the night of Obama's inauguration to lay out a plan for how they would obstruct everything they could and sabotage his presidency.
The question of what Jeb is up to sheds some light on where his party is going to find itself this coming fall, should it lose the presidential election. The simplest explanation for his willingness to tenderly criticize other Republicans is that he is realistic about the country's yearning for more Bushes in the White House, so he feels free to state the blindingly obvious about his party's gallop to the right. The alternative answer, which Jonathan Chait suggests, is that Jeb "is clearly engaged in an effort to position himself as the next leader of the Republican Party." Chait explains:
To understand what Bush is saying, you need to anticipate how the party might diagnose the causes of a loss in 2012, and then you can see how he is setting himself as the cure. Bush has been publicly urging Republicans to moderate their tone toward Latinos and to embrace immigration reform. Here is the one issue where Republicans, should they lose, will almost surely conclude that they need to moderate their party stance. The Latino vote is both growing in size and seems to be tilting ever more strongly toward the Democrats, a combination that will rapidly make the electoral map virtually unwinnable. Indeed, the body language of the Romney campaign suggests it already regrets the hard-line stances on immigration it adopted during the primary...
If you try to imagine the Republican consensus after a potential losing election, it will look like this [a moderation in tone, without a moderation in substance]. It will recognize that its harsh partisan rhetoric turned off voters, and will urgently want to woo Latinos, while holding on to as much as possible of the party's domestic policy agenda. And oh, by the way, the party will be casting about for somebody to lead it.
Chait may indeed be right about what Jeb is thinking. But it's important to remember that if Romney loses, there will be a vigorous debate within the GOP about why he lost, and the outcome of that debate is not completely certain. Many Republican leaders will certainly argue that the rhetoric got out of hand, and they'll be right. But lots of other Republicans, including the remnants of the Tea Party and the people who represent them, will argue that there was only one reason Romney lost: he was too liberal. They will push for more hardline positions, more uncompromising obstruction, and more conservative candidates, at all levels but especially when it comes to the 2016 presidential race.
You might say, well, that happened in 2012, didn't it? And the establishment's candidate eventually prevailed. That's true enough, but Mitt Romney had the good fortune to run against a remarkable collection of nutballs and buffoons. It isn't as though defeating Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry, Herman Cain, Newt Gingrich, and Rick Santorum makes you some kind of giant-killer. After a few months of those primaries, he came out looking like the closest thing the party had to a candidate who was in possession of all his faculties.
In every presidential election in the last half-century with the exception of 2000, Republicans have nominated the person who was "next in line," almost always someone who had run for president before and come in second. But the closest thing to a next in line for 2016 will be Santorum, and the party couldn't possibly be dumb enough to nominate him. There will likely be some candidates more acceptable to the establishment, and some who appeal more to the base. But the former group will still feel enormous pressure to move as far right as possible to placate those base voters. In other words, it's possible Jeb Bush will wind up as the leader of the GOP. But if he does, it won't be because he's a moderate. It'll be because, like Romney, he can give the base the wingnuttery it demands, while winking to the establishment that he's not as crazy as he sounds.

I agree w/ a lot of what Jeb Bush said--or at least what this article reports him as saying--but all this crowing about how the GOP has moved to far to the right...give me a break! Do you think the Democratic Party hasn't moved to far to the Left? Even Joe Biden has acknowledged it: http://right-winggenius.blogspot.com/2012/05/biden-democrats-were-taken-over-by-far.html
Fri, 2012-06-15 14:19
He was talking about 1972, when McGovern got the nod and was steamrolled by Nixon. He did not state that the takeover has lasted to the present day. If you have to go back forty years to find supporting evidence for an argument about politics today, that's a pretty good sign that your argument is a load of crap.
Fri, 2012-06-15 14:30
As regards the future of the Republican Party, I agree that Jeb Bush may be angling for a leadership position, but it's not going to happen in 2016.
If Romney wins in November, then he will almost certainly be leading the party in 2016. The only way I can see that not happening is if Romney somehow gets impeached and removed from office/forced to resign, in which case the party will be in such a shambles that it won't matter anyway.
If Romney loses in November, we all know what the cry of the right will be: Romney was a RINO! He was the original architect of Obamacare! He supported TARP! Et cetera, et cetera. The Tea Partiers won't accept defeat quietly; the pressures that drove Republican candidates to the far right in 2012 will only get stronger. The Republican Party won't return to sanity until it finds its Goldwater, someone with unassailable wingnut credentials who can provide a decisive test of the claim that a "real conservative" is what the party needs to win.
I think Jeb is hoping to see that happen in 2016, after which he can come in and pick up the pieces for 2020.

We have the most complete selection of traditional ceramic German steins available. You'll find exactly what you're looking for in our wide selection of ceramic steins ranging from traditional decorative German steins to ceramic Germany brewery steins and every combination in between.
The word "stein" comes from the German word for stone, as in stoneware or ceramic. The common material for steins before the introduction of glass was fired ceramic.
Most of our traditional ceramic steins have lids. Lids were originally used for sanitary reasons to keep insects out of the stein. However, now they are mostly used for decorative steins.

Crappy Coding Guy
I started programming on an Atari 400 XL when I was 12. Taught myself BASIC, then 6502 Assembler (there's nothing like moving things around in memory 1 byte at a time). That lasted me until high school where I learned Pascal and dBase. Pascal in its various Borland incarnations sustained my career until about 12 years ago when I switched over to database programming using MS SQL Server.
Other languages I've used include x86 Assembler, C++, RPG, COBOL, IBM 370 Assembler (nothing like moving things around in memory 256 bytes at a time), PHP, and probably a few others I'm forgetting. And of course, C#, which I have to say has become my favorite, especially on the new Windows phones. More recently I've been working with Java on Android devices.
Fixing a tricky bug, or slapping an algorithm around until it does what I want it to still makes me a happy man. We've come a long way from interrupts and TSRs and 640K memory limits and all the other fun things we used to have to deal with. You young whippersnappers have it easy ;). I can't wait to see what the next 30 years have in store.
Keeping a low profile.

It's human nature for too many "square" bettors to try to "justify" betting on the most dominant teams. If they can't "afford" laying -240 because that seems to high, they lay -1.5 runs at lower juice even though the percentages might make them worse off!

|A summer quinoa salad studded with fresh, ripe fruit.
Summer Simplicity
I cook sparingly in the heat of summer. And only if I absolutely have to. It's one of the perks of being a grown up- and post empty nest. We cook if we feel like it. And if we don't? We grab some baby spinach and chard, frisee and herbs and make a salad. We like to keep things simple.
That's no surprise to you, I'm sure.
I don't exactly do elaborate. We don't go for complicated around here. And goddess knows, we don't do formal. If we can toss together a bowl of fresh salad greens and herbs, and add some quickly cooked protein to make a meal of it, we're content. We might add strips of organic free-range chicken grilled with lemon and black pepper. Or a piece of wild salmon broiled with a touch of agave and lime. Perhaps an organic boiled egg. Or two. If we're lucky, some leftover cooked quinoa.
Dinner in a flash.
Quintessential summer.
So today's post (and recipe) is a nod to the natural marriage of summer and simplicity. Get out of the house. Step away from the screen.
|Redondo Beach, California-- just before sunset.
May we just take a moment of appreciation to embrace the natural beauty and soul restoring power of a walk on the beach? There is nothing that soothes my heart quite like the thunder of ocean surf. The invigorating rush of water and salt air and foam.
In Southern California, the air hangs in angles of yellow light that glance the pod of surfers rising and falling with each unpicked wave. Evening walks are cool, sometimes chilly and brisk, with a dampish steady on-shore wind that smells like Provincetown. When the western sky begins to turn pink it always startles me how much it resembles a Cape Cod sunset.
I am missing the ocean- on both coasts- out here in woodsy rural Connecticut.
|Hydrangea near our apartment. The word gorgeous comes to mind.
Last night I discovered a garden voluptuously Victorian with vintage-toned hydrangea blossoms the size of dessert plates.And speaking of dessert plates.
|Watermelon wedges with blueberries, strawberry and mint.
My favorite summer meals are picnics. Don't worry if it's too hot to bake dark chocolate brownies. Make a no-cook, sugar-free vegan dessert plate with wedges of fresh watermelon, blueberries and strawberries. Add a mint leaf. Summer fruit is simply glorious as dessert.
Light, refreshing, and fabulous.
|A vegan quinoa salad to celebrate summer.
Karina's Quinoa Salad Recipe with Blueberries, Strawberries and Watermelon
Make the quinoa in a rice cooker and you'll keep the kitchen the cool. This time I used Heidi Swanson's Super Natural Cooking ratio of two cups uncooked quinoa with three cups water. It turned out fluffy and perfect, and made enough to create a generous quinoa salad.
First make the quinoa:
2 cups uncooked quinoa
3 cups fresh water
Pinch of sea salt, to taste
Rinse the quinoa thoroughly in a fine sieve. Place the quinoa, water, and sea salt in a large to medium rice cooker, and cover. Cook until all the water is evaporated and the quinoa is tender. Scoop the cooked quinoa into a large bowl and fluff with a fork. Let it cool to room temperature.
Meanwhile, prepare the fruit and baby greens.
1.5 cups fresh blueberries, washed, picked over
1.5 cups fresh strawberries, washed, sliced
1.5 cups diced watermelon
6 cups baby salad greens
A handful of fresh chopped herbs: cilantro, dill, parsley and mint
For the dressing:
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Fresh squeezed lime juice from 1-2 limes
Cracked pepper, to taste
When the quinoa has cooled, drizzle it with the extra virgin olive oil and toss well to coat, fluffing with a fork to separate the grains. Add the fresh squeezed lime juice and toss again. Season with cracked pepper, to taste. Taste test. Add more olive oil or lime as needed.
Add the blueberries to the quinoa, and toss lightly.
Distribute the baby greens on six plates. Add the quinoa and blueberries. Add the sliced strawberries and diced watermelon, and the fresh chopped herbs.
And voila! A vegan gluten-free salad worthy of July Fourth.
Cook time: Maybe 30 minutes
Serves six.

The Geochemistry Department of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Earth Sciences Division has its roots beginning with mapping the distribution of naturally occurring radioactive minerals (NORM) during the 1960s. From there, research expanded into geothermal energy and radioactive waste disposal research during the 1970s, officially becoming a department within the newly founded Earth Sciences Division (ESD) in 1977. A major shift in the Department's focus towards more basic energy research occurred in 1988 with the arrival of Donald DePaolo (former director of ESD, now ALD for Berkeley Lab's Energy Area) and the founding of the Center for Isotope Geochemistry. The 1990s represented a decade of expansion into geochemical research related to the Yucca Mountain project (including the initiation of the reactive transport group within geochemistry), climate research (which was spun off into the Climate Sciences Department in 2007), environmental remediation sciences and molecular-scale geochemical processes.
The current Geochemistry Department Head is Peter Nico.

"Here is what I would like for you to know: In America, it is traditional to destroy the black body—it is heritage."
Last Sunday the host of a popular news show asked me what it meant to lose my body. The host was broadcasting from Washington, D.C., and I was seated in a remote studio on the far west side of Manhattan. A satellite closed the miles between us, but no machinery could close the gap between her world and the world for which I had been summoned to speak. When the host asked me about my body, her face faded from the screen, and was replaced by a scroll of words, written by me earlier that week.
The host read these words for the audience, and when she finished she turned to the subject of my body, although she did not mention it specifically. But by now I am accustomed to intelligent people asking about the condition of my body without realizing the nature of their request. Specifically, the host wished to know why I felt that white America's progress, or rather the progress of those Americans who believe that they are white, was built on looting and violence. Hearing this, I felt an old and indistinct sadness well up in me. The answer to this question is the record of the believers themselves. The answer is American history.
What compassion does to the brain.
In 1992, the neuroscientist Richard Davidson got a challenge from the Dalai Lama. By that point, he'd spent his career asking why people respond to, in his words, "life's slings and arrows" in different ways. Why are some people more resilient than others in the face of tragedy? And is resilience something you can gain through practice?
The Dalai Lama had a different question for Davidson when he visited the Tibetan Buddhist spiritual leader at his residence in Dharamsala, India. "He said: 'You've been using the tools of modern neuroscience to study depression, and anxiety, and fear. Why can't you use those same tools to study kindness and compassion?' … I did not have a very good answer. I said it was hard."
A new book by the evolutionary biologist Jerry Coyne tackles arguments that the two institutions are compatible.
In May 1988, a 13-year-old girl named Ashley King was admitted to Phoenix Children's Hospital by court order. She had a tumor on her leg—an osteogenic sarcoma—that, writes Jerry Coyne in his book Faith Versus Fact, was "larger than a basketball," and was causing her leg to decay while her body started to shut down. Ashley's Christian Scientist parents, however, refused to allow doctors permission to amputate, and instead moved their daughter to a Christian Science sanatorium, where, in accordance with the tenets of their faith, "there was no medical care, not even pain medication." Ashley's mother and father arranged a collective pray-in to help her recover—to no avail. Three weeks later, she died.
The Islamic State is no mere collection of psychopaths. It is a religious group with carefully considered beliefs, among them that it is a key agent of the coming apocalypse. Here's what that means for its strategy—and for how to stop it.
What is the Islamic State?
Where did it come from, and what are its intentions? The simplicity of these questions can be deceiving, and few Western leaders seem to know the answers. In December, The New York Times published confidential comments by Major General Michael K. Nagata, the Special Operations commander for the United States in the Middle East, admitting that he had hardly begun figuring out the Islamic State's appeal. "We have not defeated the idea," he said. "We do not even understand the idea." In the past year, President Obama has referred to the Islamic State, variously, as "not Islamic" and as al-Qaeda's "jayvee team," statements that reflected confusion about the group, and may have contributed to significant strategic errors.
As the world frets over Greece, a separate crisis looms in China.
This summer has not been calm for the global economy. In Europe, a Greek referendum this Sunday may determine whether the country will remain in the eurozone. In North America, meanwhile, the governor of Puerto Rico claimed last week that the island would be unable to pay off its debts, raising unsettling questions about the health of American municipal bonds.
But the season's biggest economic crisis may be occurring in Asia, where shares in China's two major stock exchanges have nosedived in the past three weeks. Since June 12, the Shanghai stock exchange has lost 24 percent of its value, while the damage in the southern city of Shenzhen has been even greater at 30 percent. The tumble has already wiped out more than $2.4 trillion in wealth—a figure roughly 10 times the size of Greece's economy.
Defining common cultural literacy for an increasingly diverse nation.
Is the culture war over?
That seems an absurd question. This is an age when Confederate monuments still stand; when white-privilege denialism is surging on social media; when legislators and educators in Arizona and Texas propose banning ethnic studies in public schools and assign textbooks euphemizing the slave trade; when fear of Hispanic and Asian immigrants remains strong enough to prevent immigration reform in Congress; when the simple assertion that #BlackLivesMatter cannot be accepted by all but is instead contested petulantly by many non-blacks as divisive, even discriminatory.
And that's looking only at race. Add gender, guns, gays, and God to the mix and the culture war seems to be raging along quite nicely.
For centuries, experts have predicted that machines would make workers obsolete. That moment may finally be arriving. Could that be a good thing?
1. Youngstown, U.S.A.
The end of work is still just a futuristic concept for most of the United States, but it is something like a moment in history for Youngstown, Ohio, one its residents can cite with precision: September 19, 1977.
For much of the 20th century, Youngstown's steel mills delivered such great prosperity that the city was a model of the American dream, boasting a median income and a homeownership rate that were among the nation's highest. But as manufacturing shifted abroad after World War II, Youngstown steel suffered, and on that gray September afternoon in 1977, Youngstown Sheet and Tube announced the shuttering of its Campbell Works mill. Within five years, the city lost 50,000 jobs and $1.3 billion in manufacturing wages. The effect was so severe that a term was coined to describe the fallout: regional depression.
Former Senator Jim Webb is the fifth Democrat to enter the race—and by far the most conservative one.
In a different era's Democratic Party, Jim Webb might be a serious contender for the presidential nomination. He's a war hero and former Navy secretary, but he has been an outspoken opponent of recent military interventions. He's a former senator from Virginia, a purple state. He has a strong populist streak, could appeal to working-class white voters, and might even have crossover appeal from his days as a member of the Reagan administration.
In today's leftward drifting Democratic Party, however, it's hard to see Webb—who declared his candidacy Thursday—getting very far. As surprising as Bernie Sanders's rise in the polls has been, he looks more like the Democratic base than Webb does. The Virginian is progressive on a few major issues, including the military and campaign spending, but he's far to the center or even right on others: He's against affirmative action, supports gun rights, and is a defender of coal. During the George W. Bush administration, Democrats loved to have him as a foil to the White House. It's hard to imagine the national electorate will cotton to him in the same way. Webb's statement essentially saying he had no problem with the Confederate battle flag flying in places like the grounds of the South Carolina capitol may have been the final straw. (At 69, he's also older than Hillary Clinton, whose age has been a topic of debate, though still younger than Bernie Sanders or Joe Biden.)
An attorney who helped players file a gender-discrimination lawsuit over artificial turf in the World Cup proposes a way forward for the sport.
On Sunday, players from the U.S. and Japan's women's soccer teams will step onto the field in Vancouver to compete for the sport's greatest achievement: the World Cup. But perhaps the bigger battle—one that started well before the final match and will continue well after—isn't about a trophy or national glory. Women's soccer teams have long fought for recognition and respect not just from the public, but also from the male organizers of the sport, and it's a struggle symbolized by the very fields they've been playing on.
The co-hosts of the World Cup—FIFA and the Canadian Soccer Association—failed to stage this year's tournament to be played on real grass like every other World Cup previously, mandating that it be played on artificial turf instead. This is despite the dangers and inconveniences plastic turf poses. The synthetic pitches bake in the sun, with surface temperatures sometimes reaching 120 degrees. Clouds of rubber pebbles fly into players' eyes, and the turf makes it difficult for the women to gauge the way the ball will bounce.

King has assailed the Metropolitan Transportation Authority for once again qverbilling Nassau County for LIRR station maintenance. King also charged the MTA with "gross dereliction of duty" for failing to maintain an adequate level of maintenance at the station. King's findings were contained in an audit report which he has issued for the MTA fiscal year ending March 31,. 1985. Based upon King's report. County Executive Pur-cell has withheld $2,203,276 from the station maintenance bill of $ 11,565,742 which was payable to the MTA on September 1, 1985; . : . King stated that the improper billings included $813,882 incaptial construction costs. "By law the MTA may only bill the County for maintenance and operating costs ^nd not for capital construction costs. "By law the MTA may only bill theJCountyfor maintenance and operating costs andnot for capiital expenditures," King stated. "Besides violating the law, the MTA is violating the most fundamental accounting principles by attempting to charge capital improvements as operating expenses;" ! ' Xing also objected to $ 1,266,116 in ."estimated" costs which were billed to the County. "The Public Authorities Law requires that all costs be actuaKnot estimates," King stated. "Therefore, these 'estimated! charges totalling •••f1':;266;iie>tost3be:rejected.'!A.---^l 'y'r^'- • King said that the MTA also improperly billed Nassau County for $22,018 for cleaning crews assigned to the Babylon Station in Suffolk County. Also, the County was iniproperly charged for the cleaning of a railroad tower which is not covered by station maintenance; Further, the MTA also inaccurately calculated police protection services and overcharged Nassau County by $91,652. JKihg was particulary critical of the MTA's "total failure to adequately clean and maintain theLIRR stations in Nassau County." King pointed to the Floral Pairk station which he cited in his reports for each of the past three years for plsitform deterioration and for trash accumulations under the platform an4,along the track bed. "The! situation worsens each year. Our investigation has revealed that the MTA does not follow its OAvn procedures for work inspections and, in the case of Floral Park, there has been no inspection since February 19S4.'' King charged that "the MTA's dereliction of duty is inexcusable: The inherent danger from platform deterioration and the fire hazard of trash accumulation is obvious.

Pictured during the Ribbon Cutting ceremony are (left to right)r George M.Skurla, president of Grumman Corporation; John C. Bierwirth, chairman of Grumman Corporation; Henrietta- Acampdra, Brookhayen Town Supervisor and guest of honor; and John O'Brien, president of the, Grumman Data Systems Division. When fully staffed by the end of 1986, 500 employees will work at the facility. Landfill Gas ReiiiiyeFy and Sale The Oyster Bay Town Board has avvarded a twenty-year leasetothefirm of Energy Tactics, Inc., of Yaphank for the recoveryand utilization of methane gas at the Old Bethpage ^ Solid Waste Disposal Complex, according to Town Supervisor Joseph Colby. Under the terms of the lease agreement. Energy TactlcsC Inc. will pay the Town an estimated $3 million in royalties over the twenty-year period of the lease for the reclanjation of the methane gas which will converted into electric power to be sold to LILCO. The firm has agreed in the lease-to' optimize the amount of gas extracted in order to maximize revenues to the Town. The lease agreeinent gives the Town.^ two royalty options, one of which the Town will select after field testing has beeii completed to determine whkh option willgive the Town the best financial return. ., The lease agreement provides that Energy Tactics, Inc. will conduct field tests to determine the probable yield and estiqiated powerlo be generated within thirty days after the 'contract has-been signed and based on the test results, the Town wilfopt for the royalty formula which will return the maximum amount to the Town. The basic factor which will influence the revenues to the Town will be the.amount of electric power which can be generated from the methane to Jbe "extracted o^er the twenty-year term of the lease agreement. - The lease also calls for Energy Tactics, Inc. to obtain all necessary permits from regulatory agencies and to secure the co|nmitments from LILCO to purchase the electric power to be generated by the extraction and sale of the methane gas. Radio Drama Covers L.j. Evacuation Nassau County Comptroller Peter T. King (I.) and County Attorney Edward McCabe(c.), of New Hyde Park, discuss the MTA's failure to properly maintain the LIRR stations in Nassau County. At King's request. County Attorney McCabe has begun a multi-million dollar lawsuit against the MTA. Joining with King and McCiiN is Deputy County Attorney Michael Chartan, of Plainview, who will try the case in the State Supreme Court. Long Island's most powerful non-commercial radio station, WUSB-FM will be featuring a radio-drama concerning the evacuation of Long Island after an accident at a local nuclear reactor. Titled "Shadow Over Long Island," the drama covers the circumstances surrounding a nuclear accident and the ensu-^ ing evacuation from the point of view of an on-air radio* show._ "ShadoNV Over Long Island" is especialy relevant to Long Island and Connecticut residents because of the controversy over the construction and licensing of the Long Island Lighting Company's Shorehamnuclear facility. One of the major issues concerning the Shoreham nuclear power plant deals with the evacuation question. The radio-drama utilizes actual Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Licensing Board documents as well as testimony from Suffolk County and New York State that concerns the evacuation issue. The fictional power plant, which is referred to in the drama, is an on-line facility, unlike the Shoreham plant which is currently unlicensed and oiily functioning at 5% power. "Shadow Over Long Island" will be aired on WUSB-FM (90.1) on Sunday, September 29th at 3 PM. It will be simulcast on WPKN-FM (89.5) in Bridgeport, Connecticut. The broadcast area includes most all of Long Island and Connecticut. The drama will also be re-broadcast on WIJSB the following Friday, October 4th at 4:30 PM. After the program WUSB will feature seyeral panel discussions as well as a community phone-in. The panel will feature Suffglk County legislators, former LILCO employees who actually worked at the Shorjpjiam facility, activists, andn^cologists. Also invited are members of the .nuclear industry. (A complete list will be available on September 20.) The panel will discuss the drama and the Shoreham question, with particular emphasis on LiLCO's proposed evacuation plan. The show writt.en by Eric Corley, a formei- Program Director at WUSB-FM. and features Rod Ross of WPKN-FM as Glen, a radio announcer who is suddenly confronted with evidence of a nuclear accident at the po:wer plant. He gets a call du|[ing his show telling him of mysterious traffic congestion on roads near the nuclear powerplant. We then follow the events, until the actual evacuation is announced^ as Glen gets calls from reports in the field and comments , from locrfl experts who speculate about what may or may not have happened. Other parts in "Shadow Over Long Island" are played by the station staff at WUSB, members of tl)e community, and professional actors. The program is also interesting to listeners because it is radio draina. Radio drama was popular in the 30's, and 40's affd is^t generally unavailable today outside of noncommercial radio. A program like "Shadow Over Long Island" is made even more a rarity because it is written for a local listening audience with references to real places and a real issue..

See P. Roberts, Understanding Grammar (1954) and Modern Grammar (1968); E. Finegan and N. Besnier, Language: Its Structure and Use (1989).
In grammar, an adjective is a word whose main syntactic role is to modify a noun or pronoun, giving more information about the noun or pronoun's referent. Some examples can be seen in the box to the right. Collectively, adjectives form one of the traditional eight parts of speech, though linguists today distinguish adjectives from words such as determiners that also used to be considered adjectives.
Not all languages have adjectives, but most, including English, do. (English adjectives include big, old, and tired, among many others.) Those that do not typically use words of another part of speech, often verbs, to serve the same semantic function; for example, such a language might have a verb that means "to be big", and would use a construction analogous to "big-being house" to express what English expresses as "big house". Even in languages that do have adjectives, one language's adjective might not be another's; for example, while English uses "to be hungry" (hungry being an adjective), French uses "avoir faim" (literally "to have hunger"), and where Hebrew uses the adjective "זקוק" (zaqūq, roughly "in need of"), English uses the verb "to need".
In most languages with adjectives, they form an open class of words; that is, it is relatively common for new adjectives to be formed via such processes as derivation.
Linguists today distinguish determiners from adjectives, considering them to be two separate parts of speech (or lexical categories), but traditionally, determiners were considered adjectives in some of their uses. (In English dictionaries, which typically still do not treat determiners as their own part of speech, determiners are often recognizable by being listed both as adjectives and as pronouns.) Determiners are words that express the reference of a noun in the context, generally indicating definiteness (as in a vs. the), quantity (as in one vs. some vs. many), or another such property.
An adjective acts as the head of an adjectival phrase. In the simplest case, an adjectival phrase consists solely of the adjective; more complex adjectival phrases may contain one or more adverbs modifying the adjective ("very strong"), or one or more complements (such as "worth several dollars", "full of toys", or "eager to please"). In English, attributive adjectival phrases that include complements typically follow their subject ("an evildoer devoid of redeeming qualities").
Many languages have special verbal forms called participles that can act as noun modifiers. In some languages, including English, there is a strong tendency for participles to evolve into adjectives. English examples of this include relieved (the past participle of the verb relieve, used as an adjective in sentences such as "I am so relieved to see you"), spoken (as in "the spoken word"), and going (the present participle of the verb go, used as an adjective in sentences such as "Ten dollars per hour is the going rate").
Other constructs that often modify nouns include prepositional phrases (as in English "a rebel without a cause"), relative clauses (as in English "the man who wasn't there"), other adjective clauses (as in English "the bookstore where he worked"), and infinitive phrases (as in English "pizza to die for").
In relation, many nouns take complements such as content clauses (as in English "the idea that I would do that"); these are not commonly considered modifiers, however.
In many languages, adjectives can be compared. In English, for example, we can say that a car is big, that it is bigger than another is, or that it is the biggest car of all. Not all adjectives lend themselves to comparison, however; for example, the English adjective extinct is not considered comparable, in that it does not make sense to describe one species as "more extinct" than another. However, even most non-comparable English adjectives are still sometimes compared; for example, one might say that a language about which nothing is known is "more extinct" than a well-documented language with surviving literature but no speakers.
Comparable adjectives are also known as "gradable" adjectives, because they tend to allow grading adverbs such as very, rather, and so on.
Among languages that allow adjectives to be compared in this way, different approaches are used. Indeed, even within English, two different approaches are used: the suffixes -er and -est, and the words more and most. (In English, the general tendency is for shorter adjectives and adjectives from Anglo-Saxon to use -er and -est, and for longer adjectives and adjectives from French, Latin, Greek, and other languages to use more and most.) By either approach, English adjectives therefore have positive forms (big), comparative forms (bigger), and superlative forms (biggest); many languages do not distinguish comparative from superlative forms, however.
Attributive adjectives, and other noun modifiers, may be used either restrictively (helping to identify the noun's referent, hence "restricting" its reference), or non-restrictively (helping to describe an already-identified noun). In some languages, such as Spanish, restrictiveness is consistently marked; for example, Spanish la tarea difícil means "the difficult task" in the sense of "the task that is difficult" (restrictive), while la difícil tarea means "the difficult task" in the sense of "the task, which is difficult" (non-restrictive). In English, restrictiveness is not marked on adjectives, but is marked on relative clauses (the difference between "the man who recognized me was there" and "the man, who recognized me, was there" being one of restrictiveness).
