Meanwhile, Foner compared the malevolent terror of Islamic terrorists to "rhetoric" from President Bush. He defended Soviet atrocities.(34) He is still defending proven Soviet spy Julius Rosenberg. If only Foner could see beyond what is bad for the United States, he might see that fighting terrorism and Communism might be good for people of other nations, too. In a long tradition of patriotism, in 1941, Foner's father was fired from his job as a state college teacher under the New York State law that prohibited state-supported teachers from engaging in seditious or treasonous speech. (Inasmuch as this happened in New York State while Joe McCarthy was still a young circuit court judge in Wisconsin, the New York Times referred to Foner's firing as a "pre-McCarthy Red scare."(35) Isn't someone who opposes his own country less patriotic than someone who loves his country?
While consistently rooting against America, liberals have used a fictional event forged of their own hysteria -- "McCarthyism" -- to prevent Americans from ever asking the simple question: Do liberals love their country?

Product description
From Queen of Tarts to the nation's heart, Mary Berry shares her Recipe for Life. Read by the actress Patricia Hodge. 'In the words of my father, my birth caused no end of trouble...' From the moment she came into the world - two weeks early, throwing her parents' lives into disarray - Mary has gracefully but firmly done things her own way. Born in 1935, in the city of Bath, Mary's childhood was a curious mix of idyllic picnics and ramblings, and alarming air raids; of a spirited and outdoorsy home life and a dreaded school existence. All nearly cut horribly short by an almost fatal bout of polio when she was thirteen, which isolated Mary in hospital, away from beloved family and friends for months. Recovery saw her turn to her one true passion - cookery. And so began a love affair that has - so far - spanned six remarkable decades; from demonstrating ovens in the early 1950s to producing glossy food magazines in the 60s and 70s, gradually becoming the country's most prolific and - many would say - best loved cookery writer. Until her emergence in the 21st century as a TV sensation and style icon on the Great British Bake Off. As a working mother, at the heart of a busy household, Mary became an expert at the art of juggling, even bringing her working life into her home with her Aga school. And there have been challenges, one terrible tragedy and many joys along the way. In this touching, evocative and fascinating memoir, we accompany Mary on her journey of nearly eighty years; a life lived to the full, with a wicked sense of fun and an eye for the absurd, it is the life of a delightfully traditional but thoroughly modern woman. Fans of The Great British Bake Off can't wait to get their hands on Mary Berry's Recipe for Life. Born in 1935, Mary has been teaching Britain how to cook for over half a century. Her far-reaching culinary career has taken her from recipe tester, cookery editor, author and entrepreneur to TV personality. Mary lives in Buckinghamshire with her husband Paul.

Miguel Cabrera And Prince Fielder On The Cover Of Sports Illustrated

By: Ashley Dunkak
Miguel Cabrera is back.
For a second straight year, the Detroit Tigers' slugger – who also happens to be the hottest hitter in baseball with a .363 average through 63 games – is on the cover of Sports Illustrated.
This time he has company.
The cover refers to Cabrera and Prince Fielder as the "Bash Bros," whose "swing-from-the-heels power and awesomeness" makes them "baseball's 21st century version of Mantle and Maris."
High praise, to be sure.
The article is written by former Detroit Free Press columnist Michael Rosenberg, who also wrote the story about Cabrera's Triple Crown season in 2012, when he landed the SI cover the first time.

In Maya 2011 Essential Training, George Maestri demonstrates the tools and feature set in Maya, as well as the skills necessary to model, texture, animate, and render projects with this deep and robust piece of 3D animation software from Autodesk. This course takes an in-depth tour of Maya's interface, including navigating and manipulating objects in 3D and customizing the workspace. The course also covers object creation and modeling basics, shading and texturing, surface mapping techniques, character rigging, and lastly, rendering and final output. Exercise files accompany the course.
The Hypergraph can also be used to show how objects are connected together. Let's actually build a very simple NURBS object, and we'll go ahead and show you how it works with the Hypergraph. I am just going to create a circle. Then I am going to duplicate that circle using Ctrl+D and I am going to go ahead and just move that up a little bit. Then I am going to go Shift+D to repeat that translation. So, now I have three curves. I am going to Shift+Select them all, Surfaces > Loft, and let's go ahead and shade that.
So, now I have a loft and I have a couple of circles defining that loft. So, let's take a look at how this structure looks in the Hypergraph. So, I am going to go ahead and select my lofted surface, go Window > Hypergraph:Connections. Now, what this does is it shows exactly how my object is built. So, I have a circle, another circle, a third circle, all feeding into what's called a loft, which creates a loftedSurface, and then that's shaded.
Now, notice how when I select each one of these, it actually shows up in my Channel box and if I click on my Attribute Editor, when I select the lofted surface, that comes up in my Attribute Editor. If I select the actual loft itself, it shows that. If I select nurbsCircle, it actually shows that. In fact, I can go back to my makeNurBCircle and change the initial radius of that circle as well. In fact, that's what that node is. So, what I have is I have a complete history of how this object is built.
I can just click through it and just find whatever I want and manipulate it there. So, this is really great way to actually show how objects are connected together. Now, because I'm in the Hypergraph window, I actually can go into another mode. So, for example, right now I am in Input and Output connections. But if I go into Hierarchy mode, it will show each individual object in the scene. If I select nurbsCircle and go into Connections, it will show how that is connected. If I select my loft and go into Connections, it will show how that loft is built.
So, each individual object will be connected differently. By selecting it and bringing it up in the Hypergraph, you can how your object is constructed. So, this is a really great way to navigate the construction of your object and also display how objects are put together.

Product description
Lionel Casson offers a comprehensive introduction to the people of ancient Egypt. He describes the structure of Egyptian society-the levels from peasant to pharaoh, the nature of the family, and the role of women. He reviews the professions, from the lowliest scribes to the architects and engineers who built the pyramids, and examines the work of sculptors, painters, cabinetmakers, jewelers, and smiths whose hands turned out the sculptures, murals, and objects of beauty that are so prized today. He deals with that key factor in Egyptian life, religion: the nature of the gods; the powerful role played by belief in the afterlife; and the career of one pharaoh, Akhenaten, who attempted to put heretical views into practice. Originally published in 1975 as The Horizon Book of Daily Life in Ancient Egypt, this revised edition includes a new chapter as well as full documentation of the sources.

Author information
Lionel Casson is a professor emeritus of classics at New York University and has written many books about life in the ancient world, including Travel in the Ancient World, Everyday Life in Ancient Rome, and Ships and Seamanship in the Ancient World, all available from Johns Hopkins.
Review quote
I was reading one of Casson's books while waiting for [my daughter]... She was late, which would ordinarily have thrown me into a fever of apprehension, but on this occasion I was so wrapped up in the book, I didn't notice. In fact, when she did come back, quite late, I was annoyed because she had interrupted me before I had finished the book. I told Casson this, and he was infinitely pleased. -- Isaac Asimov I. Asimov: A Memoir Provides a suitable introduction to Egyptian society for readers newly interested in ancient Egypt or for use in a survey course. -- Vanessa Davies Journal of Near Eastern Studies 2006

Need to know: CV cliches Why you can`t find a jobHF interviews
Leighton Holdings said Monday it has sold its Thiess waste management business to Germany's Remondis AG & Co. for 218 million Australian dollars (US$222.4 million).
The sale price represents an earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization multiple of six times and earnings before interest and tax multiple of 10 times, which is in line with recent deals in the sector, Leighton said.
Remember the old saying that one man's trash is another's treasure?
Ironbridge Capital has appointed Macquarie Capital to explore strategic options for its EnviroWaste asset, people familiar told Deal Journal Australia.
New Zealand-based EnviroWaste was bought by Ironbridge in April 2007 and is forecast to deliver earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, of between 50 million and 60 million New Zealand dollars (US$40.9 million to US$49 million) in fiscal 2012, one of the people said.
Leighton Holdings is considering the sale of its waste management unit, a further step by the Australian construction and contract mining firm to continue focusing its business operations and improve the return on its investment.
Leighton has hired J.P.Morgan to help review several unsolicited approaches received from companies interested in buying the business, a person familiar with the matter told Deal Journal Australia.

Re: Clive Barker's Jericho Demo Feedback Thread
Will somebody please tell me the correct sequence for the first QTE in this game?
I want to finish this demo, but I can't. I don't know if my keyboard is bugged or what. Hitting the corresponding directional keys early or late, doesn't seem to work.
I tried the game again with my Xbox360 controller and found out that when I was playing it with my keyboard, it wasn't showing the ****ing keys at all! All it showed with Keyboard and Mouse were a bunch of ****ing arrows! No keys. But when I used my Xbox360 controller, it actually showed me buttons to press. I just assumed that the arrows meant I had to use my movement keys to activate the sequence in the right order.
Btw, the game is another example of a consolized game. It controls so much better with an Xbox360 controller. How disappointing that they have to botch up the regular controls. On the plus side, the game looks great and runs great. It has great atmosphere and the enemies don't seem to be weak and with your limited ability to move it makes it a bit tense. It's a refreshing change from the run-and-gun genre.
I'm definitely getting this game for the PC, it won't look or run as well on a console so why bother. I also prefer CRT image quality to LCD quality at the moment with these darker games.

Every year you had to trudge to Delhi and get your FATA, basically a permit for a foreigner to fly in India. It was a surreal experience to say the least. No AC, a very very grotty bathroom, broken windows, cracked walls, mold on walls, tatty calendars on the wall that were showing March, 3 years previous, a room with mountains of paperwork stacked floor to ceiling bound with string, and all over the big tables too, with about 6 government employees sleepily going through whatever papers were there. You always had to wait 1-3 hours in the dismal lobby because it was just a power trip on their part because you could watch them do nothing but read the paper and sip tea while you waited.
But I love India. Really.
However, those two pilots might deserve the gaol.
Had exactly the same experience. It was common for them to administer the A&P exam to foreign pilots to ensure failure. I was one of the few pilots who legitimately passed their validation exams, and still our company man had to meet the DGCA official at his home, with a briefcase full of cash, to "discuss my score".
I haven't been there in years but every time there is talk of eliminating the foreign pilots, an indian crew does something unbelievably stupid. My company actually had pilots on the roster who had forged their training documents from Flight Safety, because they COULD NOT PASS RECURRENT! Flight Safety found out and actually prohibited the training of Indian pilots for a time. Even with this known, they were still on flying status.
Man, I should write a book.

1997 New Cars - Plymouth to Volvo
Vector Volkswagen 1997 New Cars
1997 New Cars - Plymouth to Volvo
From the October 1996 issue of Motor Trend
Vector M12This time, it looks like the infamous Vector supercar will make it into real live production. Under new ownership and management, Vector is assembling cars in its Florida facility. A benefit of company ties to
, a 5.7-liter/492-horse V-12 from the Italian firm (borrowed from the Diablo) supplies the power. An extensive chassis rework is wrapped in a new body that echoes the original. Performance should be engaging, to say the least, with a 0-60-mph sprint of about four seconds flat, and a top speed in the neighborhood of 200 mph. With a failed decades-long effort to put the all-American supercar on the road, the new half-American Vector M12 is starting to look pretty good.
Body type: CoupeDrivetrain: Mid-engine, rear driveAirbag: Driver/passengerBase curb weight, lb: 3588Base engine: 5.7-liter V-12, DOHC, 492 hpOpt. engine: NoneBrakes, f/r: Discs/discs, ABS not avail.Price range: $184,000Fuel economy, city/hwy, mpg: 9/13 (est.)
CabrioSavvy people-watchers know that if you see more than a few Volkswagen Cabrios around, it's a sure bet there's a college nearby. Or at the very least, a Starbucks. The Cabrio draws youthful fun-seekers with room for five, perky handling, and access to about 30 square feet of brilliant sunshine, all for only a little over $20,000. Or you can move up to a new highline version of the Cabrio that bundles many of the most popular options with a special interior and unique alloy wheels. There's even talk of a power-operated version of the Cabrio's six-layer convertible top. Functionally, the Cabrio carries on with the familiar 2.0-liter/115-horsepower four it's had for years.
Body type: ConvertibleDrivetrain: Front engine, front driveAirbag: Driver/passengerBase curb weight, lb: 2701Base engine: 2.0-liter I-4, SOHC, 115 hpOpt. engine: NoneBrakes, f/r: Discs/drums, ABS std.Price range: $20,500 (base)Fuel economy, city/hwy, mpg: 23/30
Volkswagen GolfAfter its great success in Europe, VW's promised introduction of a new optional turbodiesel engine has slid a bit, with the high-tech oil burners finally expected to arrive en masse this fall. This quiet, clean-running inline-four can attain almost 50 mpg in normal driving, making it a big hit with penny-pinching European drivers. The 2.0-liter/90-horse turbodiesel joins the
's standard 2.0-liter/115-horse gasoline engine for '97. No other significant alterations are planned for Volkswagen's most affordable car. Its virtues are largely utilitarian in nature; it features a practical hatchback design, room for five, and standard equipment that includes power central locking and an anti-theft system.
Body type: SedanDrivetrain: Front engine, front driveAirbag: Driver/passengerBase curb weight, lb: 2529Base engine: 2.0-liter I-4, SOHC, 115 hpOpt. engine: 2.0-liter turbodiesel I-4, SOHC, 90 hpBrakes, f/r: Discs/drums, ABS opt.Price range: $13,500-$14,500Fuel economy, city/hwy, mpg: 24/32
Volkswagen GTIAs the original hot hatchback, the VW
perpetuates a long and glorious tradition of sensible utility coupled with hair-raising sporting thrills. None is more enthralling than the current VR6 version, with its fine 2.8-liter/172-horse narrow-angle V-6 and five-speed manual gearbox. It squirts you to 60 mph in just over seven seconds, and with its specially tuned sport suspension transforms mountain roads into playgrounds. Further suspension upgrades are planned for the new year, though in other respects, the GTI will be carryover. For reduced fun on a reduced budget, check out the standard 2.0-liter/115-horse inline-four, available with a four-speed automatic or a stick.
Body type: CoupeDrivetrain: Front engine, front driveAirbag: Driver/passengerBase curb weight, lb: 2557Base engine: 2.0-liter I-4, SOHC, 115 hpOpt. engine: 2.8-liter V-6, DOHC, 172 hpBrakes, f/r: Discs/discs, ABS opt.Price range: $16,500-$20,000Fuel economy, city/hwy, mpg: 23/30
Volkswagen JettaAs the people at VW happily point out, the
sedan is America's favorite German-engineered road car. By manufacturing it in Mexico, VW is able to keep U.S.-destined Jettas attractively priced. The arrival of VW's advanced new TDI diesel engine is the principal change to the Jetta for the coming year, bringing a 20 percent improvement in fuel economy over conventional diesels, which puts your driving range in the neighborhood of 700 miles on a single tank. But with just 90 horsepower available, they likely won't be the most scintillating miles. Other engine choices are livelier, particularly the 2.8-liter/172-horse VR6 that motivates the top-line Jetta GLX.
Body type: SedanDrivetrain: Front engine, front driveAirbag: Driver/passengerBase curb weight, lb: 2657Base engine: 2.0-liter I-4, SOHC, 115 hpOpt. engine: 2.0-liter turbodiesel I-4, SOHC, 90 hp; 2.8-liter V-6, DOHC, 172 hpBrakes, f/r: Discs/drums, ABS opt.Price range: $14,500-$21,000Fuel economy, city/hwy, mpg: 23/30
Volkswagen PassatBig on the inside, small on the outside, the high-utility
is another recipient of VW's new fuel-sipping diesel technology. The 1.9-liter/90-horsepower turbo direct-injection diesel emits 20 percent less carbon dioxide (a culprit in the dreaded greenhouse effect) than most gasoline powerplants. It takes its place as the midlevel Passat offering. The base-level GLS has the ubiquitous 2.0-liter/115-horsepower four that drives most of the VW fleet-though it's overmatched in a fully loaded Passat. The far more appealing powerplant choice is the great 2.8-liter/172-horsepower narrow-angle V-6 in the line-leading GLX.

So I asked my client, "Have you ever jumped off a cliff?" Well I have. Actually it was the day before my wedding. I was at Rick's Cafe in Negril, Jamaica. Now I'm no expert but the one thing I can tell you about jumping off a cliff is that you can't guarantee how you're going to land. Feet first, head first, belly fl op, become paralyzed, die...you just don't know and that's a scary feeling.

One of the most far-reaching exhibits of New Mexico animal wood carvings, "Wooden Menagerie: Made in New Mexico," debuts at the Museum of International Folk Art on April 6 with 107 artworks made by such masters as Felipe Archuleta, Patrociñio Barela, and José Dolores López. The exhibition runs through Feb. 15, 2015.
The artworks range from narrative-to-abstracted in style, and include birds, reptiles, fish, cattle, an alligator that is almost smiling and a whimsical blue deer. These mixed-media carvings were created from elm and cottonwood along with glass marbles, leftover yellow paint from painting highway lines (utilized by Archuleta for a cheetah), broom bristles, dog hair (it is said that Archuleta would befriend stray dogs if he needed hair for, perhaps, a bear carving), rope, metal, leather, nails, sawdust and wood shavings.
Animal woodcarving is a Hispano tradition going back to the 1700s in New Mexico.
The exhibit is divided into several sections. The early-to-mid 1900s "Heritage" focuses on the works of Celso Gallegos, Jóse Dolores López, and famed modernist Patrociñio Barela. According to MOIFA guest curator Andrew John Cecil, who has been working on the show for almost a year, "Barela was the first Hispano woodcarver lionized by the contemporary art world."

Hi Barbara,
I have two girls, aged 8 and 5, who are supposed to visit my mother out of state in August. Either my mom or I would fly with them, then the girls would be with my mom for 2 weeks. After that, my husband and I will join them.
The 8-year-old has done this for the last 2 summers, but this is the first time the 5-year-old would do this. The 5-year-old is alternately excited and anxious about the visit. She gets especially anxious when talking about specifics, such as how she will get to my mom's house, who will put her to bed, etc.
She has a good relationship with my mom and I'm sure would have a good time once she gets over the initial separation. We have offered to video chat with her and/or call her every night to say goodnight, etc. but she is still anxious.
Is there any way to help her through this anxiety? Or is she too young to try this?
Thank you for your advice!
From: M, Metro Boston
Dear M,
I do not think she's too young, especially since you or grandma are traveling with her and because her older sister is going as well. (Unless of course, sis is a source of angst and not comfort or fun.) It also sounds as if you are doing a good job of preparing her. Sometimes, parents are afraid to raise the "what if's" for fear of planting ideas in a kid's head. That's not the way it works. Walking through what-if's gives a child coping mechanisms:
Be matter-of-fact when you talk her through these what-ifs. In fact, suggest possibilities: What if you get homesick? what if you get sick sick? What if you don't like the food?
Don't dismiss any concerns. When she asks about x, y or z, don't say, "Oh you don't need to worry about that." Instead, ask her, "Well, what do you think would help you if that happened?"
Walk her through some of what she might experience, including in a sensory way. Kids tend to react strongly to new smells, tastes and other sensations. Remind her of some that might be pleasant ("Can you remember that wonderful fresh smell on grandma's porch after it rains? No! Boy, you're in for a treat.") as well as ones that might put her off ("Grandma likes to cook with garlic. You don't like that taste. Should we ask her to not use garlic in your food?" )
Remind her of experiences she can look to for guidance: "Remember when you were anxious about the playdate at Mary's and you had such a good time? What did you do to help yourself stop being anxious?" That also reminds her that she has some control over her feelings.
Here's the goal: When/if she has one of these moments, you want her to be able to say to herself, "Oh yeah, mom and I talked about this. I know what to do. " Maybe the what-to-do includes looking at a family picture, getting on Skype, talking to her stuffed animal or to grandma or her sister.
Show her pictures before she goes to remind her of what things look like. Make a book together beforehand of what she'll do/see/say that she can fill it like a diary while she's there, so she can tell you about it.
That said, you know your child best. Is she normally anxious but then does just fine? Or does she work herself up into a tizzy, getting sick to her stomach, unable to sleep or eat or function normally? That child is at the troublesome end of the continuum and a trip to grandma's probably isn't worth it. On the other end are lots of kids who get anxious before doing something new and different, learn to manage and then feel terrific when they master it. Another piece, of course, is you. How anxious are you about her ability to handle this? With help, she may be just fine. What about you?! If she senses anxiety in you, that could fuel her own: " Mom doesn't think I can do this."
Lastly, it's also fine to hold off until next year -- two weeks is a long time for a 5-year-old! -- as long as no one (including her sister or grandma ) makes her feel ashamed about it.

I see a wonderful future on the horizon. Our seasoned "team" of "reporters" will continue to make stuff up in the highest tradition of modern "journalism."

Most contemporary observers recognize the role of satire and political comedy in influencing politics and public debate, particularly through shows like The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. But, it also serves a much deeper social function.
After more than 200 years of near continuous use, the federal government has shuttered its doors and placed the U.S. Capitol on the market for the first time!
Could it be that the House Republicans have been coached in a plan to close down as much of the U.S. Government as possible for as long a period as possible? Why?
We practically invented operating on an increasing deficit with no end in sight. And, just like our government, I have no reasonable plan to fund things like higher education for my children. So, I've come to the obvious solution. I'm shutting this hot mess down. HOORAY!
