Like all certainties in life, rules in the Senate change. One of America's most glorified political theatrics, the filibuster, now only exists should the majority party choose.

The whole world mourns Nelson Mandela. Rightly.
It was 73 and sunny, still two weeks before Thanksgiving, and I was stuck in traffic on the 405. Over the car radio a DJ on KOST-FM was extolling the "holiday spirit." Then he played "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer" by Gene Autry - a song so old that it doesn't rouse spirits so much as it conjures ghosts of Christmas past.
If 2013 was a year of ups and downs, it was also a year peppered with ironies. Here are just a few:
For those who enjoy lowbrow political theater, it's Christmas come early. Steve Stockman, a Texas congressman so far to the right he's in danger of falling into the Gulf of Mexico, is challenging Sen. John Cornyn in the Republican Primary. Though Tea Party leaders were calling Texas' senior senator a "traitor" who "surrendered" on Obamacare, the conservative case against Cornyn is thin. Stockman's challenge demonstrates that nothing less than absolute faith is sufficient to survive in a radicalized Republican Party that no longer resembles the Party of Reagan, much less that of Lincoln.
Environmentalists and budget critics of California's proposed bullet train may be breathing a sigh of relief.

A new study has come out that finds men and women really do think differently.
After losing the Virginia governor's race because single women voted for the Democrat by a margin of 42 points, Republicans have found the solution. They will teach their candidates how to, in Speaker John Boehner's words, "be a little more sensitive" to the ladies. But Republicans painting over policy differences with pretty words piles insult on top of offense and will do little to close the gender gap.
A hundred years ago, business tycoon Samuel Insull consolidated smaller utility companies to form the behemoth (albeit public charity-sounding) Commonwealth Edison. Because of the infrastructure needed to provide energy to an increasingly power-hunger public, Insull and others argued that Commonwealth Edison was a natural monopoly; inherently one company had to dominate the market. This battle cry enabled a mere 10 utility systems to control three-quarters of the nation's electricity business by the time FDR was in the White House, subjecting consumers to higher rates with absolutely no competition save candles.
What compromises must we make when it comes to our security on the one hand, and our privacy on the other? Personally, I'm far less concerned about being tracked by the National Security Agency than I am about being monitored by, say, Google.

OK...tandeming is not going well at the moment and I need some help from you wise Mamas!!! Here are my "issues":
- Every time I sit down to nurse the baby I hear, "Nurse too! Nurse too!" from my toddler. I wouldn't mind nursing them at the same time but I cannot find a position that is comfy for all of us. Then dd#1 gets extremely upset and throws a huge tantrum...If I do nurse them together she just wants to pop on and off and look at thenew baby - cute but it makes me sore...
- Dd#2 fusses like she is not getting enough milk if I let the toddler nurse before her. I know she is though since she spits up almost every time after eating...She will search between the breasts and go back and forth...If I let the toddler nurse after the new one however then I get teeth marks on my breast since she is not finsing as much milk...
- Honestly, I am just not sure if I am cut out to tandem. I know that dd#1 is not ready to wean (she is only 20 mo and nursed through my pregnancy although she wasn't getting much) I find myself putting more and more limits on her nursing and i know it is upsetting to us both. There are other factors coming into play here - without overwhelming all of you on my drama - dh asked for a divorce yesterday and he works 12 hour days so by the time he does come home I am exhausted and touched out so the last thing in the world I want to do is nurse anyone - much less a fussy newborn and screaming toddler at the same time...sigh...thanks, Mamas!!! Help me out, please!

I agree with the rest of the tandem mommies. Your new baby will do just fine and you will not shortchange the baby on colostrum b/c of tandem nursing. I have tandem nursed three sets of nurslings (including three at a time for almost two years) and the newborns have thrived.
You mommas ROCK!
THANK YOU for sharing your personal stories and for reminding me that all things work out when you just let it.
In fact... my son at nearly 3.5 is just shy of 30 pounds ~ and I've read that older nurslings can put on weight as a result of the high/dense nutrition in the new baby milk... this would be a welcome and positive benefit! That, and all the imunological benefits of the colostrum will only help him during this flu season! See... I actually timed this baby better than I'd thought
seriously, chefjulie. my 3.5 yo is just over 30 lbs, and got back the chubby cheeks when the milk came in! my response to your dh and mom would be 'thanks for volunteering to distract/keep ds1 occupied completely during the first week'. . . .
|my dd1 was actually so excited by the new baby (she was just barely 3 at the time) that she didn't nurse much colostrum. and i managed to make enough milk that dd2 is huge, dd 1 nursed a lot, and i still got a couple plugged ducts
If noone else has warned you though, the older nursling tends to revert to having really runny soft and frequent poops like a much younger baby. I wasn't too thrilled about that part since I always had two in diapers, but I could live with it. It's a lotta laundry though...
Ah - this had been mentioned to me over two years ago when a good friend started to tandem and her daughter (who'd just turned 2) quit eating solids at all and went on a straight breastmilk diet!
My son self potty learned in February of last year (just past the 2.5y mark) but in the past month has had half dozen incidences with "mommy, I didn't make it to the bathroom to poop on time" ~~ I am going to have to be on top of that when the poop gets "runny soft and frequent"!
Thanks for the advice!
Oh, and I too, LOVE the "thanks for offering to keep him occupied for the first week or so!"

I'm trying so hard to just be cool about it, but I feel pretty anxious because I know it would probably be pretty shocking for my family.

Contribute To Diabetes Support
Roll over image to zoom in
25.8 million people in the U.S.—a staggering 8.3% of the population—have diabetes, according to the CDC. Diabetes occurs when the body becomes unable to produce or use insulin, leading to high blood glucose levels. Uncontrolled, this can lead to complications such as heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, and more, and the complications can be fatal.
Amazing research into the causes of and treatments for diabetes is happening every day, advancing our knowledge of this disease. And as awareness grows, more people are reaching out to help all those affected. You can be a part of this growing movement.
When you give directly to GreaterGood.org, our 501(c)(3) charity partner, we'll direct your donation to worthy charities doing leading-edge diabetes research, providing diabetes care and services; in short, wherever in the field the funding best serves those with diabetes.
Every bit helps, even an amount as small as $1. You can donate any amount over $1 by placing the $1 donation in your shopping cart and increasing the quantity—perhaps a special number to honor someone's birthday. For your convenience, we have created $5, $15, $40 and $100 tiers as well.
Free Standard Shipping in the U.S. on your entire cart when you donate $15.00 or more in our Gift That Gives More™ program. See Current Promotions for details.
Why a Gift That Gives More™ is a smart, effective donation.
100% of your donation will go to the program described above as a grant through GreaterGood.org. GreaterGood stores do not receive any profit from donations through this Gift That Gives More™; we bring it to you in the spirit of the greater good. We even pay the credit card transaction fee, so every cent of your donation goes to charity.
Please note: A free downloadable certificate is available to print for easy gift giving for any non-disaster related Gift That Gives More™. The "gift message" field during check-out does not apply to your Gift That Gives More™ certificate.
Your donation is 100% tax-deductible in the U.S.A.
You will receive a receipt from GreaterGood.org for your taxes. GreaterGood.org has ultimate authority and discretion with regard to the distribution of its funds. All expenditures made are consistent with the exempt purposes of GreaterGood.org.
Check with your employer: your company may match your donation.

I'm not sure what drew my attention to her first. Maybe it was her clothes; after all you don't normally see a silky emerald skirt paired with a plaid flannel shirt and sparkly gold shoes. But I personally think it was her hair. Not the hair itself either, even though the gold of it was intense. It was the way that her hair completely hid her face, without obscuring it at all. I could even see the smile that played over her mouth, but I had no idea what she looked like.

Nipped in for drink one evening around 9 - getting quite but good pub for sitting and chatting. Good range of beers, ciders and other drinks.
My husband and I had visited the pub downstairs and noticed a poster for steaks on a stone-we were taken upstairs to the restaurant and the choice was amazing!
My husband ordered sirloin, while I decided to be brave and ordered 1/2 and 1/2-my choice being beef rump and kangaroo!!
It was truly amazing and came with various sides of...
This is a great pub with friendly staff, good service and good food at reasonable prices. We ate there twice during our four nights in Llandudno and were very happy both times.
well what can i say about this place we got lunch in here nearly every day while staying in Llandudno..the cheese and pear pasta excellent the soup excellent the lamb ciabatta excellent the chips excellent nothing more i can say but staff and food excellent
Visited The Queen Victoria on Thursday 23rd July. Nice welcoming place. Food was delicious. I had liver and bacon, veg and new potatoes. Veg nicely cooked not sloppy. Prices reasonable. Would definitely go again
This is a homely pub, food excellent and well priced bar staff very friendly can't wait to come back
Ate here on Sunday, both had the roast beef dinner, plenty of meat, very fresh, tasty well cooked veg, no roasters but home made Yorkshire pudding. Only £9.00, drinks here are also very good value compared to other bars. Sat outside after, has the sun on it most of the afternoon
I only went here once just for a quick look and fact finding mission for fututre reference. It was quite busy, and from what we could see, the food looked very good.
If like me you sometimes want a meal out without chips this is the place to go - I had the steak & ale pie which was very tasty and had lots of meat in it - it was accompanied by new potatoes and four other well cooked veg. As we were impressed we went back on the Sunday night...
Good real ale on pump...Hobgoblin. Very nice Red wine also on pump....Stowells Shiraz.. Tasty meals and pleasant friendly ambience

Strange, these are the exact same trends from last year. Would like to see something new rather than a rehash of what we've been focused on for the last 18 months.

There's a variety of softwares available. You can use the free options (Google Blogs, Twitter Search, etc) or some of the more expensive ones such as Hubspot and Radian6. Depends on what exactly you're looking for... hope this helps!

The Neighborhood
We are located on the main road between the small town of Las Lajas (2 km) and the Panamerican highway (2km). 500 mt from here, walking to the town of Las Lajas, there's a small drugstore. In the town there's are 2 supermarkets, an Italian Ice cream shop, a couple of local restaurants.
Going back to the Panamerican, 200 mt from here you will find 2 restaurants. After another 200 mt a small drugstore and before the cross on the highway there's a local restaurant.
In the cross ( cruce de San Felix) there's a supermarkets, the bus stop and office. 2 km up you'll reach the town of San Felix where there's a hospital, a clinic and a pharmacy. Then you'll find some local restaurants, 2 atms and some shops.
On the beach (10 minutes by car) there are some restaurants, a small resort that offer daypass and a diving center.
Getting Around
There are many cheap taxis in the area! They charge about 1 $ pp to move around Las Lajas and San Felix towns. Just stop them on the way.
To the beach is 5-6 $ each way.
Until now no buses go to the beach, so we offer the shuttle service(3 $ each way).

Erika and Fabio were very nice hosts. The glass cottage was cozy, rustic, and comfortable in the evenings. Breakfasts were nutritious and delicious. Their shuttle service was extremely helpful since their place is a bit away from town and the beach, if you don't have your own transportation.
Erika was so nice to wait for us, even though we arrived very late at night. She even offered to pick us up from the bus stop. The bungalow is very nice and clean. Perfect for a great night sleep. Breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed all the home made delights! We would definitely recommend anyone to spend the night here.
Erika and Fabio were super gracious hosts. The cabin was clean and looked just like the pictures. It was hotter and drier than normal so they gave us an extra fan to use to cool off at night. We slept so well. Breakfast was very nice too. I highly recommend staying here and would again myself. Thank you Erika and Fabio.
THERE IS NO A/C. It's not included on the amenities, but I overlooked that and we spent a rough, humid night with barely 4 hours sleep total. There is no real address (no exact street addresses anywhere in Panama) so make sure you have a reliable GPS and passable Spanish. Their house is about a ten minute drive beyond a checkpoint where National Guard asked us (only in Spanish) for our passports, destination, etc.
Erica was waiting for us when we arrived and showed us to the separate bungalow. It's cute, relatively clean, and has a wonderful view of the valley. We watched a beautiful sunrise. There are plenty of large bugs around (in the room, which I expected) but if you're squeamish, don't chance it. WiFi worked well. A couple friendly dogs roamed the property and barked during the night. A horse was outside the fence when we got back from the beach (cool). Erica served us coffee, fruit smoothies, toast, and her own mango preserves for a light and delicious breakfast. Go to Nelly's for dinner/drinks on the beach and Chiricream for dessert.
Erika & Fabio were perfect hosts. Very friendly and helpful.
The bungalow is really beautiful and has a perfect view.
We can highly recommend this place.
The glass bottle cottage was so unique, and very pleasant to stay in! The hosts made us feel very welcome and made sure we had everything we needed. The large fan kept us cool as we drifted off to sleep. The breakfast included homemade peanut butter and jam on toast, fresh fruit, and homemade cashew juice made from the fruit not the nut.
This airbnb cottage is very convenient to Highway 1, at a good place to stop for the night as you are heading across the country. It is a very good value, with kind, helpful hosts, a delicious breakfast, and a one of kind lodging experience! Highly recommended!
Erika und Fabio sind sehr nette Gastgeber. Die beiden haben sich ein ein kleines Paradies geschaffen mit schöner Aussicht und zwei bezaubernden Häusern! Das Glashaus wurde von der morgendlichen Sonne durchflutet und weckte uns mit einem herrlichen Farbenspiel! Nachts kühlte es angenehm ab.
Erika brachte uns für 3$ (einfache Strecke) an den Strand und holte uns immer zur vereinbarten Zeit dort wieder ab. 200m von der Unterkunft befindet sich ein fabelhafter Italiener, mit einem Ambiente zum träumen!!
Wer in Las lajas halt macht, sollte beides unbedingt ausprobieren!
Frühstück ist inklusive, auch wenn es klein ausfällt, ist es mit liebe gemacht und es gibt jeden morgen ein nettes Extra- wie frische Säfte und Obst.

Ascend W1 is Huawei's first Windows Phone 8
First leaked back in October last year, Huawei's very first Windows Phone 8 handset is now official. It's basically an entry-level model which will help bring WP8 to the masses.
The hardware configuration of the Ascend W1 looks decent.
Huawei Ascend W1 specs:
4.0 inch display @ 480×800 pixels, 233ppi
Qualcomm MSM8230 Snapdragon 1.2GHz dual-core Krait
Adreno 305
4GB internal storage
3G/HSDPA 21Mbps
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
Bluetooth 2.1 w/ A2DP
5MP rear camera @ 720p
VGA front-facing camera
GPS w/ aGPS, GLONASS
Li-Ion 1950mAh battery
Windows Phone 8
My previous discussions from local Huawei rep is that they are bringing their WP8 handset to the Philippines later this year (not sure if it's 2nd or 3rd quarter but that should help bring more affordable WP8 handsets in the country). The speculated price tage is in the vicinity of Php13k but we're hoping it will be lower than that.
2 Comments on this Post
With the price of 13k, it is indeed an affordable gadget for Filipinos. We just don't know if it is a good buy when it comes to quality. But with Huawei's reputation, I think some would still patronize the product.

Mauricio Pochettino: The natural heir to the 'special one'?
Jose Mourinho should be very wary of his opposite number's tactical nous
Sunday 01 December 2013
Mauricio Pochettino may not yet have mastered English to the point that he is comfortable speaking it in public, but Jose Mourinho remains all too willing to wield his own words. If not quite a rallying call, the Chelsea manager did indicate a certain readiness on Friday.
Ahead of the visit of an admirably proactive Southampton, Mourinho was asked whether he personally prefers opposition teams to park the bus at Stamford Bridge or push up. The Portuguese made a beckoning gesture with his hand, before making his feelings clear: "I want them to come at us."
Southampton will likely do an awful lot of that today. Mourinho said last week he spent much of the international break analysing all West Ham United's matches in order to prepare for Sam Allardyce's long-ball attacks, but he would have been well served using some of that time to study Pochettino's more refined approach as well.
Southampton will provide Chelsea with a very different challenge than they're used to, and in that a very real test.
Pochettino's willingness to step up to sides of higher status has yielded impressive results. In eight games so far against the six teams that Mourinho has labelled as the best in the league, the Argentine has won four and lost just three. One of those wins was against Chelsea at the end of March. That was a notoriously stormier time for the Blues, but it's not as if Mourinho has completely steadied things yet.
The very fact such a commanding victory over West Ham was immediately followed by a tepid defeat at Basel illustrates that. Chelsea possess their manager's resilience but not yet that old relentlessness.
As such, an awkward Southampton side are more than capable of upsetting Chelsea today.
At the least, Mourinho has a rock-solid record against Pochettino. In four games against the former Espanyol coach at Real Madrid, the Portuguese's side won four, scored 13 and conceded none.
Mourinho points to the disparity in resources between the clubs as a reason why that record is now irrelevant, and it is clear he has a lot of respect for Pochettino. The fact they shared an intense rivalry with Barcelona would have created a natural affinity in Spain, but the Chelsea manager still went on to really praise the "identity" of Southampton.
Many who know the Argentine say he is better equipped than most to eventually emulate Mourinho, even if the exact way a question was phrased forced a laugh from the Portuguese.
"The world is full of special ones, but I was the first!"
Pochettino undeniably has a smooth charisma; his unwillingness to speak English just means it hasn't yet come across. Mourinho denied that is a disadvantage as regards using mind games, and said he understood his counterpart's reluctance – but only while providing what could be perceived as another trick himself by reminding everyone of the great difference between these teams too.
"I think he's in a club where he doesn't need that. I think he has a club profile where his work is not so much being in front of cameras and microphones because this club is not the type, so I think he has like a dream job: good players, good club, big trust, big stability, no pressure.
"Finish fifth or sixth, incredible job. Finish seventh or eighth, good job... he respects the country that's for sure, he loves to be here, I know that, so I don't believe he's not learning."
Whether Mourinho has learned anything from watching Southampton remains to be seen, because such words are unlikely to blunt the visiting side. As against so many superior teams, the Saints will energetically close Chelsea down.
How the home side react will be revealing, and Mourinho may be forced to again play three in defensive midfield, rather than one behind the striker.
It does feel like the kind of match that could be turned by a surprise tactical switch. "A game is about two teams," Mourinho said. "Maybe they think they come to play the game and they can't do it, because we don't allow them to do it, or maybe we think because we are at home we are going to dominate, we are going to make a game only with one direction, and they come here and they don't allow us to do so."
Back at Southampton, Pochettino allowed a glimpse of his full personality on Friday, as he corrected his interpreter for using the word "frustrated" rather than "disappointed" as regards last week's 2-0 defeat to Arsenal, which included Artur Boruc's embarrassing goalkeeping mistake. His side are well capable of leaving Chelsea experiencing both feelings today.

This investigation used the Process-Person-Context-Time Model (U. Bronfenbrenner, 1979, 1995) to study adolescent diabetic control. The dependent variable was a blood test measuring diabetic control (i.e., HbA1C [glycosylated hemoglobin]). Independent variables included adolescent/maternal perceptions of family environment and communication, blood glucose monitoring frequency, age of disease onset, disease duration, race/ethnicity, gender, and mother's education level. Stepwise regression revealed that glucose monitoring and problem communication explained 17% of the variance. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]

Behind the crystal ball: magic, science, and the occult from antiquity through the New Age
Times Books, 1996 - Body, Mind & Spirit - 406 pages
times to the present, magic and science have always been intertwined. In this fascinating book, astronomer/anthropologist Anthony Aveni conducts a whirlwind tour of occult practices--from astrology, alchemy, and phrenology to psychokinesis, crystals, and channeling--and finds that many of magic's ancient rites have been revived and reexamined in the New Age.

ST. GEORGE'S, Grenada, Jan 9, CMC – Prime Minister Tillman Thomas last night announced that he had asked Governor General Sir Caryle Glean to dissolve Parliament paving the way for a general election in Grenada within 90 days. In a brief radio and television address, Thomas did not name the date for the general election that was constitutionally due by October this year, but widely expected before that month. "I wish to advise that today I advised his Excellency the Governor General to dissolve the Parliament of Grenada. This act paves the way for the setting of an election date within the next 90 days". He said he would be announcing the election date "shortly" in order to give all nationals who are eligible to vote to ensure that they are registered. "All such persons who are yet to register are urged to do so now," he said.

Tell cheating wife she is heading for divorce: Ellie
Husband is a pleaser and wife is taking advantage of that by having affairs
|Report an Error
Share via Email
I'm a father of two teenage girls. I caught my wife cheating, and then discovered that she'd also cheated previously, with two other men at the same time.
She apologized, seemed remorseful. We both agreed that we had problems we didn't discuss (being open about sex, our feelings, etc.)
Then I later found a text to the last guy she was cheating with. They were sleeping with each other again. They even had an explicit photo shoot in my house.
Again, she promised me it was all a mistake.
I try to be more open with my feelings, and initiate sex more. But she recently put a password on her cellphone.
She only went with me to counselling once. I've gone in the past. I know now that I'm a pleaser and am trying to change.
I don't know if there's hope. Do I give her an ultimatum about counselling and full access to her email, phone, etc.? Make her promise she'll never contact this last guy ever again?
Treading Water
She's beyond promises.
See a lawyer privately, and get informed as to how a separation and joint involvement with your daughters would work practically, and financially.
Then tell her those facts. Say that's where she's headed. Say you'll only not proceed if she goes to counselling with you, and opens up all her technology.
A dose of hard-core realism is what's needed now. Your daughters will need counselling, too.
I'm 22, and have never fallen in love. I had a two-year relationship from age 17. In the second year, I moved three hours away for university.
It was a mediocre relationship, he lied to me constantly, but I was very naïve. It ended with him cheating on me and we broke up. Since then I've not dated anyone. I've gotten over the bad experience, which taught me more about myself, and I toughened up.
Now I keep attracting men who ask me out, or try to have flings with me. I meet these people expecting friendship, yet they never expect the same even when I make myself clear.
I reject them politely and then they walk out of my life. It makes me more adamant to stay single because of their insincerity (as in, How can they say they love me if they don't want to be my friend?).
Am I worth so little that if someone can't have my body or use me as an emotional crutch, he doesn't want me in his life? It's becoming ridiculously frequent.
Desperate for Advice
I wonder if you're as clear as you think about wanting friendship. Or, do you lack trust so much you don't give a guy a chance? Someone "asking you out" doesn't necessarily mean he only wants sex.
If someone asks right off for "a fling," that's different, and it's unlikely you'd want that person for a friend, anyway.
But when "dating," it's up to you to say you're interested in getting to know that person as a friend, "and then we can see where it goes."
If, in that case, every guy you meet wants more, you need to question what kind of guys you're meeting and where. I'm not blaming you, just saying you need to look at this from several angles.
Yes, you were hurt in your first relationship. Most people have been hurt once, or more, in romantic relationships.
To let that cloud your judgment on all others, is to hurt yourself.
Repeated cheating calls for a reality check about the consequences for the whole family.

Bengals' Unfettered Access Led HBO To Pick Team For Repeat "Hard Knocks" Appearance
Published June 19, 2013
INSIDE ACCESS: ESPN's Max Bretos said only one team "other than the Bengals, had expressed serious interest in appearing" on the show. Former NFLer LaDanian Tomlinson said of his appearance on the show with the Jets in '10, "Everything that you see is actually pretty real." Tomlinson: "The only thing, sometimes guys act out of character, even coaches." ESPN's Jason Taylor said the NFL Films crew "does a great job of blending in, they're very professional, they don't really get in your way." Taylor added the cameras are everywhere, so players and coaches "understand they're there, but after the first couple of days guys stop playing up to the cameras and go about their business." Taylor: "It shines a new light on your organization, it lets people see the inside workings of the organization." ESPN's Mark Schlereth said a lot of teams "turn it down because they don't want that exposure, they don't want you to see inside that organization" ("NFL Live," ESPN, 6/17).
PICK & CHOOSE: CBS Sports Network's Allie LaForce said, "The Bengals aren't a bad pick. Chad Johnson's gone ... but they have young, humble guys who are willing to work hard that I think can handle the pressure of having their life on TV." LaForce said she would "want to see the Patriots on 'Hard Knocks' because there are so many storylines there with Rob Gronkowski going through all of his surgeries." CBSSN's Doug Gottlieb: "I would prefer the Eagles with Chip Kelly and all their personalities, DeSean Jackson, Mike Vick, or the San Francisco 49ers" ("Lead Off," CBSSN, 6/17). Fox analyst Brian Billick, who coached the Ravens when they appeared on the show's premiere season in '01, said, "There are a lot of coaches, obviously, who will say we don't need the kind of distraction that that provides. But they do a pretty good job. After you get past the first day or so, you're not even aware that they're there." He added teams need to have a veteran roster that "understands why you're trying to do it, that can kind of put it at arm's length." The Bengals' experience appearing on the show in '09 is "going to be an advantage for them" ("NFL Total Access," NFL Network, 6/17).

OPINION: The Government's decision to rush through the remaining stages of the Marine and Coastal Area Bill is as ill-considered as it is dangerous.
For this is no ordinary piece of legislation, easily repealed by a newly-elected House of Representatives.
It is a bill which confers upon Maori, by virtue of their indigeneity, a new kind of property right (customary title), along with a powerful new set of legal powers to enforce that right - powers which the legislation's many critics believe will undermine the generally accepted principles of liberal democracy.
The formal equality of all citizens lies at the heart of the liberal-democratic state. Indeed, any state which invests one part of the population with more rights than another, or strips a minority of citizens of rights enjoyed by their neighbours, is quite rightly condemned for promoting inequality.
The historical path towards full political equality has been anything but smooth. Revolutions and civil wars have been fought to secure its full recognition.
The right to elect a government, for example, was originally restricted to high-status men of property. And even when the property qualification was abolished, women remained excluded from the franchise. In most colonial societies the indigenous population was denied any role at all in government.
The key point to acknowledge here is that, from the 18th to the 21st century, the expansion of human rights has been a genuine progression: from privilege and exclusion to equality and increasing participation. Our own founding document, the Treaty of Waitangi, reflects the logic of this progression.
The absorption of New Zealand into the British Empire (Article One) is followed by a clear description of how the transition (from tribal society to modern state) is to be managed (Article Two). The document is then concluded by the granting of formal equality to all of Queen Victoria's new subjects (Article Three).
By the standards of the time, this was an extraordinarily generous arrangement - a triumph of missionary zeal and the British Foreign and Colonial Office's liberal optimism.
Until relatively recently, that liberal optimism did not appear to have been misplaced. Through much travail, and many injustices, the transition of the Maori people - from pre-modern tribalism to full citizenship in a modern state - seemed on the point of fulfilment.
In the 1970s, however, New Zealand intellectuals' faith in this progressive vision faltered. The reality of economic inequality, coupled with the persistence and institutionalisation of racial prejudice, undermined their confidence in the assimilationist policies of successive New Zealand governments.
Maori intellectuals, in particular, rejected the liberal- democratic assumptions upon which assimilation was based. Maori, they insisted, possessed an indissoluble and separate identity, which could only be protected in and by Maori-controlled institutions.
Article Two of the Treaty - which guaranteed tino rangatiratanga - was not a formula for transition, but a charter for the permanent preservation of tribal power and independence.
The extraordinary fact of the past 40 years of our history is the manner in which this bold rejection of Captain Hobson's famous declaration of February 6, 1840: he iwi ko tahi tatou (now we are one people) has become the official policy of the New Zealand State.
Not, I hasten to add, the policy of the New Zealand people - who have never been given the opportunity to formally endorse, or reject, the separatist "two nations in one state" orthodoxy which now prevails in our universities and throughout the public service.
Though these latter groups celebrate "The Treaty Debate", the term is cruelly inappropriate. The only issue up for debate among New Zealand's elite policymakers is the speed at which our liberal- democratic institutions should be "adapted" to the new bicultural orthodoxy.
The Minister for Treaty Negotiations, Chris Finlayson, has unabashedly located himself alongside the Maori Party at the sharp end of this sham debate.
His airy sanctioning of the abrupt curtailment of the Maori select committee's consideration of the Marine and Coastal Areas Bill made a nonsense of his Government's earlier promises of democratic accountability.
The overwhelming majority of submitters opposed the legislation (a situation which the Prime Minister, John Key, had previously reassured the electorate would cause the bill to be withdrawn). No matter. Finlayson, like the leader-writer of The New Zealand Herald, clearly holds the view that there must be "a gradual acceptance that a post- colonial state cannot be governed simply by majority rule".
There's simply no way Finlayson and his Maori Party allies are about to let a few "clowns" prevent them from exploiting a wavering and wafer- thin majority in the House of Representatives to pass a piece of legislation inimical to the democratic beliefs - and rights - of all New Zealanders.
Dissatisfied Maori nationalists in Tamaki Makaurau are organising a hikoi of protest from the north against Finlayson's bill.
Perhaps dissatisfied Pakeha democrats in the south should do the same?

How to smartly resist summer heat?
23 July 2014 [09:20] -
In the cold winter days we all usually miss hot summer sunrays, walks and trips to the beach, but while sweating and breathing hard under the hot sun, we come to realize that the heat is a real threat to our bodies.
If one does not comply the basic rules of safety, exhausting heat can cause several troubles. It is known that the summer heat is a serious test for the human body, and the most affected are children, the elderly, and people with chronic diseases of the cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal tract, and so on. Moreover, the risk of getting solar and thermal shock increases in a hot weather.
As everyone knows, the weather is highly variable in Baku. So, usually, an unbearable heat comes after the windy days, which were observed in the last three days in Azerbaijan's capital. However, one should not relax vigilance because the hot days are ahead. To be prepared for the heat, one should know a few basic rules.
One should limit staying outdoors, especially between 11 am to 4 pm. If this is not possible, then choose the dark side of the street and be sure to cover your head with hat or use an umbrella, and use special water-based sunscreen cosmetics, reflecting the ultraviolet radiation and not preventing skin breathing.
Have this point in mind: Do not leave the house without a bottle of water. Take a little sips, so that you don't get thirsty. Do not eat street foods, as meat and dairy products rot rapidly in hot weather. If you are taking medications for a long time, consult your doctor so that he can correct your regimen.
What about food and drink?
One should know that due to increased perspiration, the body loses its moisture and water balance. Therefore, the doctors recommend drinking at least 3-3,5 liters per day. Do not drink sugary sodas and only eat ice cream to cool yourself down, as increased glucose will only exacerbate the thirst. Doctors recommend drinking beverages at room temperature - it is easy to get sick angina in the heat.
Mineral medicinal water increases the load on the heart, it is not worth drinking. Your right choice are the boiled water with lemon juice, freshly squeezed juices and carbonated alkaline bottled water. Useful dairy products are yogurt and fermented baked milk. Moreover, one should not drink coffee and black tea, though green tea perfectly cools off, regulating heat exchange. Be careful with alcohol, as the body is especially sensitive to it in such weather; do not forget that beer contains alcohol too.
As about the food, the story is slightly different. Generally, follow the rule - it is better not to eat enough than overeating. Thus, one should not eat smoked, fried and fatty foods and should decrease the amount of their daily meat and stop eating honey. Water-containing fruits and vegetables such as watermelon, cucumbers, tomatoes will be very useful, as they contain additional trace elements and vitamins.
Clothing and Shoes
Almost 50 percent on your comfort depends on your choice of clothing in the heat. First of all, you need to prioritize the composition of materials, given their hygroscopicity, heat transfer and air permeability. Natural fine fabrics as silk, linen and cotton are beyond comparison in summer. One should not wear tight-fitting clothing - even if it is made ??of thin material because it reduces the heat transfer. Casual clothing of light colors will be the best choice in hot summer days. If it is possible for you, exclude ties, belts, corsets and give your body the freedom to move easily.
Use wide-brimmed hat of straw or thin fabric, baseball cap of lightweight fabric with mesh elements, scarf or shawl and pick up what suits your better. One should remember that the headgear should not be tight, otherwise it will create a "greenhouse" effect. So lighter tones and thin natural fabric will be the best choice.
One of the main points to have in mind is to choose sunglasses correctly, as poor-quality sunglasses will not protect your eyes, but hurt them.
Do not get involved in jewellery of metal and stone - these materials are rapidly heated by the sun and aggravate overheating. Glass decorations become dangerous under the sun, as they focus the sunrays and this can cause burns.
Shoes should only be made ??of leather; narrow shoes, laces sticking into the skin and high heel are not allowed in the heat, as circulation of blood would be disturbed and swelling would appear in your body.
These simple rules will allow you not only to escape from the unpleasant consequences of the heat, but even enjoy all the pleasures of summer.

Los Angeles Lakers Turn To Manny Harris To Save Them
The reeling Los Angeles Lakers signed point guard Manny Harris recently to a 10-day contract. Harris is 24 and has played for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the past. He has been averaging over 30 points per game for the Los Angeles D-Fenders of the NBA Developmental League this year.
Now, I wouldn't get my hopes up if you are a Lakers fan, because it's not like the D-league is known for defense. However, Mike D'Antoni point guards tend to put up inflated stats in his system. Look for the Lakers to be a little more fluid on the offensive end now that they finally have two point guards at their disposal. Watch for Harris to get some immediate action against the Boston Celtics. Will we see the beginning of Mansanity?
One wonders why it took so long to get a backup point guard. It took Nick Young getting suspended before the Lakers added another player. It leads people to believe that the Lakers are starting to penny-pinch in the front office.
You could argue that not having enough bodies has led to all of the injuries this year. Why was Kobe Bryant allowed to play point guard during a four-game-in-five-nights stretch right before his injury? Why wasn't Kendall Marshall signed before those games? It probably contributed to Bryant's injury.
Steve Blake, the last of the healthy point guards, was put on the IR on December 12. So, the team has played without a true point guard rotation for over a month.
So now the Lakers will have two guys in their point guard rotation who were in the D-league less than a month ago. Regardless, it is a great story for Harris to get rewarded for his recent play of late. It's a nice touch that the team took a guy from their own farm system, which gives that program some credibility moving forward.
