If you're concerned about breast cancer, you may be wondering if there are steps you can take toward breast cancer prevention. Some risk factors, such as family history, can't be changed. However, there are lifestyle changes you can make to lower your risk.
Lifestyle changes have been shown in studies to decrease breast cancer risk even in high-risk women. The following are steps you can take to lower your risk:
Eating a diet rich in fruits and vegetables hasn't been consistently shown to offer protection from breast cancer. In addition, a low-fat diet appears to offer only a slight reduction in the risk of breast cancer.
However, eating a healthy diet may decrease your risk of other types of cancer, as well as diabetes, heart disease and stroke. A healthy diet can also help you maintain a healthy weight — a key factor in breast cancer prevention.
A number of older studies suggested that birth control pills slightly increased the risk of breast cancer, especially among younger women. In these studies, however, 10 years after discontinuing birth control pills women's risk of breast cancer returned to the same level as that of women who never used oral contraceptives. Current evidence does not support an increase in breast cancer with birth control pills.
Be vigilant about breast cancer detection. If you notice any changes in your breasts, such as a new lump or skin changes, consult your doctor. Also, ask your doctor when to begin mammograms and other screenings.

CANTON Attempted burglary charges against one of two New York City men accused of trying to break into a Massena home in December were dismissed Thursday in St. Lawrence County Court.
Devian J. Fletcher, 19, New York City, and Matthew C. Malu, 24, Yonkers, are accused of trying to confront Andrew Courson at his 26 Haskell St. doorstep about 11:30 a.m. Dec. 27. The suspects allegedly tried to open a door but found it locked, and Mr. Coursons girlfriend, Amanda Parmer, reportedly told them to leave and said she was calling police. She said she saw Mr. Malu pick up a shovel and throw it through a kitchen window as the two were leaving.
Thursday afternoon, however, the charges against Mr. Fletcher were dismissed by County Judge Jerome J. Richards, after Assistant District Attorney Andrew T. Botts said he was unable to locate witness Trista LaDue.
If she was available to testify, she could have given the judge more evidence about Fletchers involvement as an accomplice, Mr. Botts said. The right decision was made based on the evidence that came in the testimony of Andrew Courson and his girlfriend, Amanda Parmer.
Mr. Botts said the testimony of Mr. Courson and Ms. Parmer went to prove only that Mr. Fletcher was physically present, but there was no evidence he made an effort to break into the residence.
Mr. Fletchers attorney, Mary E. Rain, said her client was being used as a political pawn, in an attempt to link him to convicted felon Patrick R. Lloyd. Mr. Fletcher is being charged in an unrelated incident with having shot at Mr. Lloyd for his involvement in attempting to kidnap Massena teenager Catherine A. Berry.
The judge ruled properly and told them they couldnt do that, Ms. Rain said. Whether someone tried to break into Courson and Parmers apartment has nothing to do with Lloyd. Even though he has shooting charges against him, this kid has no record.
Mr. Malu is on trial on a single charge of second-degree attempted burglary. Jury deliberation begins this morning.

Obama having trouble raising big bucks. The headline in The New York Times read "Obama Sees Steep Dropoff in Cash from Major Donors." It looks like the big givers aren't opening their wallets as they did in 2008. This time, most donors are giving less than $200 each. While the total lags behind the record amounts he collected in 2008, Barack Obama's war chest is predicted to hit $1 billion this year — far more than Mitt Romney will have on hand. The President has already appeared at more than 100 fundraisers in the past year.
George Soros writes some big checks. One major Barack Obama supporter who isn't cutting back is George Soros. The ultra-liberal billionaire proudly announced that he will give $1 million to the super-PAC American Bridge 21st Century and another $1 million to the advocacy group American Votes. Both organizations favor causes on the left side of the political spectrum.
Canada stops making cents. The Royal Canadian Mint has produced its last penny. Ceremonies at the Mint's manufacturing facility in Manitoba marked the end of a 150-year tradition. The coin cost the Canadian government 1.6 Canadian cents to mint; its elimination will save the country about $11.15 million a year. But don't bother collecting them; with an estimated 20 billion pennies still in circulation, their value isn't expected to rise anytime soon.
Money isn't that important to this champion. Masters champion Bubba Watson shocked many golf fans when he withdrew from this year's Players Championship, saying he wants to spend more time with his wife and newly adopted 2-month-old son. "The Players is one of the best weeks of the year but bonding with my son and wife is what it is all about right now," Watson tweeted. The golfer was favored to win a big chunk of this year's prize money: $1.7 million for the winner and a total purse of $9.5 million.

Think of summer food, and garden goodies might be the first thing to come to mind. But dishes served cold are among the season's favorites, too. At the end of the day, when I'm driving a steaming stretch of asphalt that leads to my home, the last thing I want to think about is firing up the oven. Putting something fresh and cold on the table is a much more appetizing idea.

The fact it was only celebrated by video game fans and Atari employees for that one year says a lot about their efforts, but hey, you've got to at least commend them for thinking big with their PR.
Atari National PAC-MAN Day was minted to celebrate the home console release of the arcade classic. To Atari's credit, they actually put on a bit of a show, holding public events at certain locations with things like competitions and the chance for kids to shake hands with a man dressed in an uncomfortable Pac-Man outfit.

YIELD: Makes 8 cocktails
- 1 1/2 cups Oaxacan mezcal
- 2 cups Limonada
- 1/2 cup triple sec
- 50 to 60 drops (1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons) orange bitters (store-bought or homemade)
- 6 cups ice
- About 2 heaping teaspoons finely chopped orange zest (colored peel only; see Cook's Note)
In a pitcher, combine the mezcal, Limonada, triple sec and bitters. Stir well to combine, then cover and refrigerate until chilled, about 2 hours.
Fill a cocktail shaker half full with ice and pour in 1 cup of the margarita mixture. Shake and strain into two 6-ounce martini glasses. Add 1/4 teaspoon orange zest to each glass and serve immediately. Repeat for the remaining margaritas.
Cooks' Note: I typically use a Microplane grater/zester or a 5-hole zester to remove it.

Local police departments in Marseilles, Ottawa, Seneca and Streator used the financial donation to purchase winter coats for area needy families, while food pantries in Marseilles, Mazon and Streator will re-stock its shelves with food after the busy holiday season.
In addition, guests brought non-perishable food items. In all, 30 full boxes of food items – anything from soup to pasta to cereal – were collected.
The station outreach committee also made charitable contributions to the food pantries in Ottawa and Seneca last year.
"It is humbling for me to witness and be a part of the compassion and generosity shown by the employees of LaSalle Station," said LaSalle's Site Vice President Dave Wozniak. "They are always looking for ways to help others in need and place a special focus on it during the holiday season."
Last year alone, LaSalle Generating Station donated $65,000 to a wide range of local organizations, including charitable contributions to help LaSalle and Grundy Counties improve environmental, educational and recreational initiatives within local communities.

HAMMOND The fate of one of the oldest lighthouses on the St. Lawrence River remains uncertain.
Since 2011, the 1.5-acre Crossover Island, which includes a three-bedroom house, a smokehouse and an icehouse in addition to the historic light, has been up for sale. The property is listed on the website of Cornerstone Associates Realty, Williamson, for $539,900.
Members of the towns newly formed Economic Development Committee said last week they hoped the island could become an attraction for boaters.
Its a beautiful place, said Erica C. Demick, who co-chairs the committee. It would be great if it was open to the public.
The island got its moniker because it sits at a midpoint in the river where the shipping lane crosses the Canadian border. The U.S. government purchased Crossover Island and three other islands in April 1847 for $250 to build lighthouses. The Crossover lighthouse was built that same year to guide ships past a dangerous shoal near the Chippewa Bay-Oak Point sections of the river, state records show.
A house was built in 1848 as quarters for the lighthouse keeper. The original lighthouse began to deteriorate about 1868 and was rebuilt in 1882, state records said.
The light station was put out of commission in 1941 with the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway, when more modern navigation aides were installed along the river.
The state Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation designated Crossover Island Lighthouse Station at Oak Point a landmark in 2007. It was designated a national landmark later that year.
The island was sold to John J. Urtis in 2002. Mr. Urtis, who could not be reached for comment Friday, said in 2007 that he filed for the landmark designation to preserve the place.
Mr. Urtis led American Light and Tower, a nonprofit aimed at restoring Crossover Island Lighthouse Station.
According to state Parks office spokesman Daniel L. Keefe, the benefit of being registered includes eligibility for various public preservation programs and services, such as matching state grants and federal historic rehabilitation and other tax credits.

The Mortal Storm
1940. USA. Frank Borzage. 100 min.
Sunday, April 21, 2013, 2:30 p.m.
Theater 1 (The Roy and Niuta Titus Theater 1), T1
The Mortal Storm
1940. USA. Directed by Frank Borzage. With James Stewart, Margaret Sullavan, Robert Young, Frank Morgan, Robert Stack. The films Borzage made at Fox immediately following F. W. Murnau's production of Sunrise at the studio provided graphic evidence of Murnau's influence. More than a decade later, this portrayal of the uprooting of German families due to the rise of National Socialism showed Borzage to be still under Murnau's sway. The film was sufficiently offensive to the Nazis that they banned MGM films from Germany. Print courtesy of UCLA Film & Television Archive. 100 min.

Fifty-six budding Shakespearean scholars from the Creekview Elementary School PEAK (Providing Experiences and Activities for KIDS) program visited Utah State University-College of Eastern Utah this week. Their purpose was to get some behind the scenes education about Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," the upcoming production of the USU Eastern's Theater Department.
The students were treated to backstage tours of sets and lighting, a lecture on the History of The Geary Theater, a workshop on Shakespearian Language interpretation and another on theatrical sword fighting choreography. The workshops were provided by the faculty and students of the USU Eastern Theatre Department.
Dr. Corey Ewan of the USU Eastern theater department stated, "This was a great opportunity for me and the USU Eastern Theatre students to meet with a very sharp and enthusiastic group of students. I was extremely impressed with how much they actually knew about Shakespeare, Elizabethan Theatre and theatre in general."
This experience for public school students follows a long line of public school/USU Eastern joint activities including Physics/Engineering Department's pumpkin chuckin' contest, the Biology Department's Cadaver Days with local high schools, the Automotive Technology Department's Odyssey (alternative fuels) Day, and the Business Department's Future Business Leader's Competition and the Criminal Justice Department's CSI: Price experience.

MORRISTOWN, N.Y. (AP) - Authorities say a young man from the Buffalo area has died after being hit by a vehicle while walking along a road in northern New York.
State police say Benjamin Schick and John Robinson, both 19 and from Lancaster, were walking on the shoulder of Route 6 in the St. Lawrence County town of Morristown around 9 p.m. Sunday when Schick was hit from behind by a sport utility vehicle that didn't stop.
Schick was taken to the hospital in nearby Ogdensburg, where he was pronounced dead.
Robinson wasn't hit by the SUV and was able to give police a description of the vehicle.
Troopers say the SUV believed to have been involved was reported stolen from the parking lot at an Ogdensburg convenience store.
The driver and vehicle haven't been found.

A+: @ St. Lucie Mets 9, Palm Beach Cardinals 8
This one had a good, crazy ending. The Mets took a 8-2 lead to the ninth when the Cardinals tied it up with six runs against relievers Kyle Allen and Adrian Rosario. The Mets then won it with two outs in the bottom of the ninth when SS TJ Rivera singled, advanced to second on 2B Danny Muno's bunt and scored on C Blake Forsythe's RBI single.
The 23-year old Rivera hit his way out of the SAL and had two knock on Tuesday. While he's still hitting .307/.346/.411 in the FSL, his power and walk rates have declined versus the SAL. He'll play in the upper minors as a a nice organizational middle infielder.
Fellow 23-year old Danny Muno had a monster night, going 4-for-4 with a triple and a homerun. He's hitting .386/.429/.553 in 10 games in August and .286/.378/.437 overall in 65 games in the season in which he was busted for an anabolic steroid metabolite. Most impressively, his Metsian plate discipline: 35 walks against 39 strikeouts.
Jack Leathersich fanned five of the six batters he faced in relief of Chase Huchingson: 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 ER, 0 BB, 5 K.
No Aderlin Rodriguez again. The 20-year old has not played in a week. I'm not sure why, yet.
A: Lexington Legends 10, @ Savannah Sand Gnats 1
After giving up just one earned run in his previous three starts, Alex Panteliodis gave up six in 5.2 innings Tuesday. The lefty's line: 5.2 IP, 10 H, 7 R, 6 ER, 0 BB, 5 K. I thought the Legends had a really good approach against Panteliodis. They realized at some point that his curveball was a non-factor and were able to poke line drives back into centerfield.

By KEVIN SCANNELLSun Advocate reporter
After months of trying to secure funding for the construction of new bathrooms at the little league field, the Sunnyside City Council can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
The council's request for funding was approved at the Carbon County Recreation and Transportation Special Service District meeting on Monday afternoon, according to Polly Sanderson, Sunnyside city recorder.
The district board approved $79,000 for the restroom project. Sanderson, who attended the meetings on behalf of the city council, was turned down by the district board on two different occasions during the meetings held in March and April. The board requested that Sunnyside receive bids for the work and present all information about the project before it would be approved for funding.
The Sunnyside City Council awarded the bid to Nelco Contractors, from Price, for $64,930. The funding also helps cover $6,900 for engineering and a contingency of $7,160. Ten percent of the contingency will be used to help install standalone fencing around the construction while the little league games are being played.
The contingency cannot be allocated without deliberation and permission from both the city council and the Special Services District. Sunnyside also agreed to fund all maintenance and operations, as well as paying for insurance.
The start date of the construction is still to be determined.

Janning's 28 Leads Creighton WBB Past Seton Hall, 76-73
SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. - Fueled by 28 points from sophomore Marissa Janning, the Creighton women's basketball team outlasted Seton Hall, 76-73, on Tuesday, Jan. 28.
In a game that came down to the final minute, Creighton and Seton Hall battled through 15 lead changes (including eight in the second half). The win lifted Creighton to 13-8 on the season and 7-2 through the first round of BIG EAST conference play.
Down 4-0 in the opening moments, the Bluejays appeared to seize control of the game with a 12-0 run. Janning knocked down a pull-up jumped to get Creighton on the board, then junior Sammy Jensen delivered from long-range to give the Bluejays their first lead of the game (5-4). Senior McKenzie Fujan put a layup and a 12-foot jumper around a trey from Janning to make it 12-4 with 13:47 remaining in the first half.
Coming out of the first media timeout, Seton Hall scored and forced Creighton into three consecutive turnovers to knot the game at 12-12 in just 58 seconds. The Pirates' run didn't stop until Seton Hall held a 19-14 lead (10:34).
Creighton responded with eight straight to reclaim the lead, 22-19. The two teams battled back and forth through the remainder of the period. Trailing 27-26 with just over three minutes remaining, Creighton made a final push to take a 36-32 lead in at the break.
After trading shots through the first ten minutes of the second half, Creighton used an 11-3 run to claim the lead for good. Down 51-49, Janning got the rally started with a trifecta from the right corner. Senior Sarah Nelson and junior Alexis Akin-Otiko knocked down two free throws each Buckets by Janning and Nelson pushed Creighton's lead to six at 60-54 (7:18).
Seton Hall closed the gap to 62-60, but back-to-back three-balls from Fujan and Janning appeared to put the game out of reach with 2:56 showing on the clock.
Once more the Pirates made it a one possession game with a 5-0 run, but Janning delivered a running layup to put Creighton back up five (70-65) with 1:29 remaining. Fujan hit four free-throws down the stretch to secure the win.
Janning's 28 points led all scorers, while Fujan finished with 16 points. Nelson delivered a double-double with 11 points and 12 rebounds, while Akin-Otiko rounded out the Jays in double-digits with 10 points.
Seton Hall also had four players in double digits, led by 19 points from Bra'Shey Ali and 18 from Tabatha Richardson-Smith.
Creighton returns to action on Saturday, Feb. 1 as the Bluejays travel to Philadelphia, Pa. to face Villanova at 1 pm (CT). Listen to the Bluejays' call on 1180 AM.

Monday night wasn't as kind to the Ranger prospects playing
for the Greenville Road Warriors or for Ryan Graves and his Val-d'Or Foreurs as
both lost their playoff games. For the Road Warriors it was game 1 of their
series against the Cincinnati Cyclones and it was played in Cincinnati.
The Road Warriors would actually jump out to an early 1-0
lead when Kyle Jean (2012 UFA) would score at 2:30 of the first period assisted
by Josh Nicholls (2012 UFA) and Andrew Yogan (2010 4th). It was Jean's
5th goal of the playoffs and 7th point of the playoffs
while it was Nicholls 7th assist and 10th point and Yogan's
7th assist and 12th point.
That was the highlight for the Road Warriors as it was all
Cyclones after that as the Ranger prospects struggled in this game leading to a
4-1 win. Jason Missiaen took the loss in goal stopping 28 out of 32 shots in
the loss.
Game 2 will be in Cincinnati Tuesday evening.
In London Ontario, Ryan Graves (2013 4th) and his
Val-d'Or Foreurs ran into the OHL champions the Guelph Storm only to be beaten
6-3 at the Memorial Cup. The Foreurs looked and played like they were out of
gas as the Storm was all over them from the start.
It was Guelph up 3-0 before the game was even 6 minutes old,
4-0 before the Foreurs got on the board and it was just a bad night for the
QMJHL champs who fall to 1-1 in the Memorial Cup.
Graves was scoreless with a -2 on no shots and a minor for
checking from behind. His Foreurs won't get any rest as they are right back in
action Tuesday night against the Edmonton Oil Kings of the WHL.
The way the Memorial Cup is formatted the Guelph Storm who
are 2-0 have already advanced to the final with wins over the Oil Kings and the
Foreurs. The Oil Kings and Foreurs are both 1-1 and the loser of tomorrow's
game will be rooting for the Storm on Wednesday when they play the host London
Knights who are 0-2.
Should London defeat Guelph then they will play the loser of
tomorrow's game on Thursday. The winner of what is called the "tiebreaker" game
will play tomorrow's winner on Friday in the semifinal with the winner of that
game heading to the final on Sunday.
If you are a bit confused don't feel too bad as it takes a
while to get used what really is a fun tournament.

I say unholster that 'pistol'
I say unholster that 'pistol'
good change of pace, but isn't the best offense used for Tanny. I love using the pistol for the zone read bc u don't know where it is going. I would like to see the pistol zone read as another element to compliment what we are doing on offense for about 3-9 snaps a game. But I don't want Tannehill to get hurt bc the thought of Devlin entering a game right now scares me.
I want Tannehill to use his athleticism as a last resort measure. If the field is wide open or if he is trying to escape. I don't want us to rely on his mobility, because then he has a higher chance of getting hurt.
No thanks.
Again, who won the Superbowl. A dropback quarterback. These pistol offenses and athletic QBs win games but they dont win championships.
"Fundamentals, technique, execution -- primary. Scheme -- secondary."
"We will incorporate an aggressive, up-tempo, attacking style in all three phases of the game."
"Our team will play with discipline, poise, and maximum effort."
"I want us to be the best tackling team in the NFL, the best team in pursuit, I want to take the ball away from other teams, I want to rattle the opposing quarterback every opportunity we get."
-- Joe Philbin 01/12
The Pistol will go by the wayside just like the Wild Cat did.
Defenses will figure it out. Baltimore had a pretty good plan in the Super Bowl. Teams will try to copy it.
Use the pistol and get Tannehill killed, then wait another decade or so for a decent quarterback. No thank you.
Horrible idea.

On Thursday, October 6th, CUNY, the Roosevelt Institute, and The Nation will present "What is Conservatism?," a conversation between Professor Corey Robin and Christopher Hayes focused on Robin's new book, The Reactionary Mind. Click here for more details on the event.
Robin's provocative thesis -- that conservatism is, and always has been, "a meditation on -- and theoretical rendition of -- the felt experience of having power, seeing it threatened, and trying to win it back" -- should make for an interesting and exciting conversation. In order to give readers a sense of his argument, we asked Corey to use Ronald Suskind's famous passage about conservatism during the Bush years as an entry point into the larger debate. -- Roosevelt Institute Fellow Mike Konczal
Long before Ron Suskind tangled with the media and the White House for telling truths or tales about the Obama administration, he was the hero of liberals. For it was Suskind who, in the course of exploring the Bush presidency for the New York Times Magazine, stumbled upon the Rosetta Stone of the contemporary conservative mind.
In the summer of 2002, after I had written an article in Esquire that the White House didn't like about Bush's former communications director, Karen Hughes, I had a meeting with a senior adviser to Bush. He expressed the White House's displeasure, and then he told me something that at the time I didn't fully comprehend -- but which I now believe gets to the very heart of the Bush presidency.
The aide said that guys like me were ''in what we call the reality-based community,'' which he defined as people who ''believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.'' I nodded and murmured something about enlightenment principles and empiricism. He cut me off. ''That's not the way the world really works anymore,'' he continued. ''We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality -- judiciously, as you will -- we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors... and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.''
"Reality-based community" soon became one of the most cited quotes of the Bush era -- a Google search yields 456,000 results; it even has its own Wikipedia page. It is an affirmation of everything the left ever thought about the right: that it lives in a fact-free universe where ideological purity is more important than pragmatic solutions; that it's revolutionary and radical rather than realistic and moderate; that it's activist rather than accommodating; that it's, well... not really conservative.
Because conservatives are supposed to be, at least by reputation, calm, reasonable, quiet, averse to the operatic, friendly to the familiar. They don't go looking for trouble in far-off lands. They stay home, tending their gardens, patching the roof, taking care of their children. They want to be left alone. They're not interested in history's adventure. They want to leave things be, even if things aren't so great, because they know that trying to change things, particularly through politics, will only make them worse. Insofar as they are concerned with politics, it is, as William F. Buckley once said, the "politics of reality."
That, at any rate, is how many literate conservatives understand themselves and their tradition. It's also how many liberals who may have read Burke in college, or who are perhaps friends with these literate conservatives, understand the conservative tradition.
To wit: this recent column by Paul Krugman.
Modern conservatism is actually a deeply radical movement, one that is hostile to the kind of society we've had for the past three generations -- that is, a society that, acting through the government, tries to mitigate some of the "common hazards of life" through such programs as Social Security, unemployment insurance, Medicare and Medicaid.
When Krugman talks about "modern conservatism," he means anything from the last 10 years of the GOP to the postwar American conservative movement as a whole. Either way, the notion is that there once was a conservatism that was different, a conservatism that looks something like what I sketched out above.
It's a pretty common notion, on the left, right, and center, that modern conservatism -- however it's defined -- is different from the conservatism that came before it. Here's Sam Tanenhaus, editor of the New York Times Book Review and author of a forthcoming biography of Buckley, in his widely read The Death of Conservatism:
What we call conservatism today would have been incomprehensible to the great originator of modern conservatism, Edmund Burke... Burke's conservatism was based not a particular set of ideological principles but rather on distrust of all ideologies...
The movement conservatives of our time seem the heirs of the French rather than the American Revolution.
As soon as the afterglow of 9/11 began to fade, Andrew Sullivan also took up this argument in a series of articles and posts that culminated in his 2006 book The Conservative Soul. Since then, he's pursued it time and again, pillorying the modern conservative movement, in all its variations and iterations since the 1980s, for its rejection of Burke's supple traditionalism, Hayek's critique of utopianism, and more.
I wrote The Reactionary Mind for many reasons, but one of them was to show -- contra Sullivan, Tanenhaus, Krugman, and many more -- that today's conservative is in fact conservative. She hasn't betrayed the traditions of Burke, Disraeli, Hayek, Oakeshott, Buckley, and Reagan; she has fulfilled them.
Because Burke so often figures in these discussions as the touchstone of comparison, I'd like to make a novel suggestion: perhaps we should read him. And not just a few isolated passages in his Reflections on the Revolution in France -- the pages everyone who took Intro to Political Theory in college refers to -- but his entire counterrevolutionary oeuvre, particularly his Letters on a Regicide Peace. For modern conservatism, which dates to Burke, arose in reaction to modern radicalism. But a funny thing happened on the way to the counterrevolution.
As early as the Reflections, published in 1790, Burke had voiced concern that the revolutionaries in France had tapped into the deepest currents of modern civilization, that they somehow had put themselves into the driver's seat of history and were threatening to leave the defenders of the old order behind.
Burke framed the contest between the revolutionaries and the old order as a struggle between "ability" -- the village lawyers and urban financiers of the bourgeoisie, who made the revolution in alliance with the mob -- and "property," the aristocrats and their clients of the old regime. In such a contest, he was fairly certain who would win and why: "As ability is a vigorous and active principle, and as property is sluggish, inert, and timid, it never can be safe from the invasions of ability, unless it be, out of all proportion, predominant in the" state. Without the protection of the feudal state, in other words, property would lose.
By the time he began writing his Letters on Regicide Peace, two years before he died in 1797, Burke's concern about the relative strength of the old order had reached a fever pitch. "In ability, in dexterity, in the distinctness of their views," he wrote of the revolutionaries, "the Jacobins are our superiors." But where initially he had located the source of the revolutionaries' superiority in their class position, their material base in finance and commerce, Burke now saw it in their absolute indifference to their material circumstances. The strength of the Jacobins lay in their faith, their willingness to destroy and suffer anything and everything for the sake of their cause. "While you are in vain torturing your invention to assure them of your sincerity and good faith," Burke wrote to the British officials who wished to negotiate and compromise with the French, "they have left no doubt concerning their good faith, and their sincerity towards those to whom they have they engaged their honour... They have been true and faithful to the engagement which they have made more largely."
It was Burke's great fear that the British elite -- as well as the other monarchies of old Europe -- could not summon similar reserves of ideological resolve. They were too comfortable, too assured of their possessions, too confident of their estate. Where the Jacobins had "conquered the finest parts of Europe" with an "annihilated revenue, with defaced manufactures, with a ruined commerce," the aristocracies of Europe were drowning in the very properties Burke had once held up as the counter to revolutionary France. They didn't just possess estates; they were possessed by their estates.
At no time has the wealth and power of Great Britain been so considerable as it is at this very perilous moment. We have a vast interest to preserve, and we possess great means of preserving it. But it is to be remembered that the artificer may be incumbered by his tools, and that resources may be among impediments...
They who are in possession of all they wish are languid and improvident...
In the ordinary course of human affairs, any check to population among men in ease and opulence, is less to be apprehended from what they may suffer, than from what they enjoy. Peace is more likely to be injurious to them in that respect than war.

Because the British elite possessed so much, and were so assured of their possessions, they approached the Revolution with a prudential logic rather than a daring zeal. They were careful and calculating, they were cautious and prudent. They were, in short, Burkeans. Condemning Pitt and his allies, Burke wrote:
They spoke neither to the understanding nor to the heart. Cold as ice themselves, they never could kindle in our breasts a spark of that zeal, which is necessary to a conflict with an adverse zeal; much less were they made to infuse into our minds that stubborn persevering spirit, which alone is capable of bearing up against those vicissitudes of fortune which will probably occur, and those burdens which must be inevitably borne in a long war.
These "creatures of the desk" and "creatures of favour" charged with defending the old orders of Europe, Burke complained, "had no relish for the principles of the manifestoes." They lacked the "generous wildness of Quixotism."
The other negative consequence of an inheritance that's assured, wrote Burke, was that its possessor -- whether a country with an ancient constitution or an individual with a familial estate -- quickly became encumbered by the weight of history and tradition. This is a seldom noted theme in Burke, for it runs counter to our stereotype of him as the tribune of long-standing wisdom and embedded prudence. But there is a deep and untapped vein in Burke's writings of worry about, even hostility toward, individuals and institutions that are awash in history.
"Our most salutary and most beautiful institutions yield nothing but dust and smut," Burke declared at the outset of his Regicide Peace. The laws of the state, ancient and "full of reason, and of equity and justice," were a "dead letter." They "ought to be severe and awful." Instead, they yielded "no more than stubble." It was their very ancientness, he concluded, that made them so weak.
Our Constitution has more impediments, than helps. Its excellencies, when they come to be put to this sort of proof, may be found among its defects.
Nothing looks more awful and imposing than an ancient fortification. Its lofty embattled walls, its bold, projecting, rounded towers that pierce the sky, strike the imagination and promise inexpugnable strength. But they are the very things that make its weakness. You may as well think of opposing one of those old fortresses to the mass of artillery brought by a French irruption into the field, as to think of resisting by your old laws and your old forms the new destruction which the crops of Jacobin engineers today prepare for all such forms and all such laws.
It wasn't just the laws and constitution that were suffering from age; individuals too steeped in their history, Burke warned, would be blind to the very newness of the threats they faced. Prudence, in other words, the proverbial wisdom of the past made present, was not a way forward but a liability of the first degree.
There was no more emblematic figure in this regard than Louis XVI, the hapless monarch who lost his head, in both senses of the word. He was by no means incompetent or malicious. He was well tutored and lettered, particularly in history. And that in the end was the problem. "Louis the XVIth. was a diligent reader of history. But the very lamp of prudence blinded him."
Against so powerful a force as the Jacobins, and the revolutionary order they were inaugurating throughout Europe, prudence, half-measures, compromise, and moderation -- all the meats and treats of the Burkean high table -- would have to be pushed aside in favor of a more bloody repast. In a series of rhetorically escalating epigrams, Burke called his conservative brethren to the most radical arms.
Acquiescence will not do; there must be zeal.
To destroy that enemy, by some means or other, the force opposed to it should be made to bear some analogy and resemblance to the force and spirit which that system exerts.
The madness of the wise...is better than the sobriety of fools.
Every little measure is a great errour.
These were not just rhetorical tropes; they were programmatic injunctions to the leadership of the old order, who Burke hoped would wage a counterrevolution of continental proportions against the Jacobinism that was plaguing all of Europe. (This is another great misunderstanding among the defenders of Burke: they see him as the man of the "little platoon," of the local and the national as against the international. Not so. In face of the "general evil" that was Jacobinism, Burke wanted everyone to think of himself as a citizen of Europe. England should realize that international affairs were domestic affairs and vice versa: "Nothing in human affairs was foreign to her." "No citizen of Europe could be altogether an exile in any part of it." Against those who wanted to take care of their little plots on their beloved island, Burke enjoined a great leap forward and across the English Channel.)
This was not to be an old-fashioned war of rules and constraints. Burke called for total war, of Sein oder Nichtstein, against not a country or a people but "an armed doctrine." That doctrine had to be exterminated, for "if it can at all exist, it must finally prevail." Against even its most infinitesimal expression, no quarter could be given: "It must be destroyed or it will destroy all of Europe."
And because of the magnitude of the evil that they faced, all the traditional rules of war had to be thrown out the window; preemption and prevention were now the order of the day. From now on, any country could mount a total war against "any capital innovation" in a neighboring country --even if that innovation was entirely within its own borders -- because such an innovation "may amount to the erection of a dangerous nuisance."
I have dwelled so long on Burke in part because of the stature he holds, on the right and the left, as the founder of conservatism -- and as the measure against which all contemporary conservatisms are deemed insufficiently conservative. But it's not just Burke who makes these sorts of arguments in favor of ideological zeal and against prudential restraints. Nor is it in the face of an arguably lethal threat like Jacobinism that conservatives make them.
In the 20th century, one finds a similar move in Hayek, arguing against not the totalitarianism of Stalin but the democratic socialism of Britain and France and the liberal welfare state of the New Deal. Again, this is not a widely noted theme in discussions of Hayek, but if you want a full-throated defense of ideology and utopianism against the prudential improvisations of the proverbial conservative, you could do worse than to start with Volume 1 of his Law, Legislation, and Liberty. There, Hayek says, among other things, that the "successful defense of freedom must therefore be dogmatic and make no concession to expediency" and that
Utopia, like ideology, is a bad word today... But an ideal picture of a society which may not be wholly achievable, or a guiding conception of the overall order to be aimed at, is nevertheless not only the indispensable precondition of any rational policy, but also the chief contribution that science can make to the solution of the problems of practical policy.
The other reason I have dwelled so long on Burke is that though he's often held up as the source of conservatism, I get the feeling he's not often read all that much. Likewise, Hayek and much of the rest of the conservative canon. Sure, someone will quote a passage here or a phrase there, but the quotations inevitably have a whiff of cliché about them -- little platoons and so on -- that stale blast of familiarity you hear when you listen to someone go on about a text he may or may not have read during one week in college. That, it seems to me, applies no less to the right than it does to the left. Everyone thinks they know Burke or Oakeshott or Hayek, but have they read them? In the last decade?
If nothing else, I hope my book spurs readers to go back to these texts. Not just because they're great, which they are. But also because we're having a conversation about modern conservatism in the dark, based on a misapprehension of the what the enterprise is and is not about. If we can get clear on these ancient texts, maybe we can get a little clearer on the contemporary practice.
So here's my final suggestion for Andrew Sullivan, Sam Tanenhaus, and anyone else who likes to invoke Burke or Hayek or [fill in the blank] against today's GOP: Read 'em. Then let's talk.

Total War: Rome II
Total War: Rome II Summary
Total War: Rome II Review
It's complicated.
Latest news
Sega releases '15 years of Total War' retrospective video; teases Warhammer adaptation in the process
To celebrate fifteen years of Total War games, Sega has released a retrospective video that charts the course of franchise from inception to present day.
Most tantalizingly, the trailer also appears to tease the Total War: Warhammer game that developer Creative Assembly apparently has on the boil but has yet to make official.
Total War: ATTILA "meant for future graphics cards" with 'Extreme Quality'
Creative Assembly say they're future proofing Total War: ATTILA with the 'Extreme Quality' setting in the game's graphical options, which flicks on a number of demanding luxuries at 1440p. 'No one will default to this'.
Also the 'Recommended Spec' is tied to 1080p on the 'Quality' setting for mid-range cards. PC specs for ATTILA are higher than Rome II because of the "newer iteration of our TW Engine."
Second annual 'Make War Not Love' competition for Total War and Company of Heroes, begins February 12th
SEGA, Creative Assembly and Relic are ready to kick off this year's 'Make War Not Love' community competition, pitting the Total War and Company of Heroes strategy buffs against one another for the corporate-mandated Valentine's Day.
Every in-game victory achieved in "consecutive three hour rounds" will be tallied, with the most won rounds earning players of that respective game free DLC.
Creative Assembly's new 'Barbarian Hordes Feature' for Total War: ATTILA
A new feature spotlight has been released for Total War: ATTILA which covers the Barbarian Hordes in the upcoming standalone expansion. It's over 6 minutes long and shows us this new way to play.
Migrating factions are nomadic and "effectively carry their towns with them", and don't need fixed settlements to improve technology, increase their production or recruit new forces.
Total War: ROME II - Wrath of Sparta Campaign Pack now out
Creative Assembly has just launched the Wrath of Sparta Campaign Pack for Total War: ROME II, which adds a new "epic campaign expansion" which sees time crank back to 432 BC.
The new DLC deals with the Peloponnesian Wars that engulfed the city-states of Greece. The new pack includes "all-new technology trees" to represent Greek culture and disciplines.

Center Prospects: Knicks can't Afford Learning Curve?
We know what happened last year with Jordan Hill. He couldn't manage to impress the coaching staff enough to get minutes. I still maintain he COULD have played 25 plus minutes from jump at the expense of a veteran, but the team would have suffered some. I like Hill. We'll check back in with him in a few years.
We've talked about PGs and that's great. Again, this isn't to say that stats mean everything, clearly they don't, but there are things you can't ignore.
"…Hasheem Thabeet appeared in 6 NBADL games during his rookie season in Memphis, showing some glimpses of the type of production that Memphis hopes they'll get out of him down the road in the NBA, but still looking light years away from contributing at the NBA level relative to his lofty draft status. B.J. Mullens played the majority of last season for the Tulsa 66ers, having some moments of brilliance and some less-than impressive outings. Neither player made any real contributions to their respective NBA teams as rookies –a great reminder of the learning curve big men face in translating their games to the NBA…"
It's tough to rank the big men in this draft because there aren't many. The Knicks need a post defender and a shot blocker that has to be able to contribute right away. Fans are leery that Mike D'Antoni won't play "bad rookies" so it puts more pressure on Walsh to get this one right, and for the coach to play him.
Me? I keep an eye on Hassan Whiteside (from D'Antoni's alma mater Marshall)…way too talented but falling in DX's latest mock. I like Larry Sanders a ton, Alabi and Orton, the latter is probably way too far away from contributing. Zoubek and Jerome Jordan should both be around in the 2nd round and I've been paying particular attention to the European bigs too Kevin Seraphin, Tibor Pleiss and for those looking for that Kendrick Perkins-type, Paulao Prestes is your guy so don't please don't boo him, or any Euro for that matter if you never saw him play. Do a little homework there are videos everywhere. Or send a message to Givony @draftexpress on Twitter.
I love the draft though, it's the fans chance to do stuff like this…
Again, from 20-40 there's a real chance to get an impact big, and they have to get this one right.

Hurtigruten launches Northern Lights cruise from BELFAST Airport
For many, seeing the Northern Lights is a 'must do' on their wish list, and thanks to Hurtigruten, it just got even easier for the people of Northern Ireland to fulfill this once-in-a-lifetime dream. A new one-off charter flight has been launched on 24 February 2013 direct from Belfast Airport to Tromso that ties in with a six-day voyage in Norway, entirely above the Arctic Circle, where the Northern Lights are regularly spotted during the winter months. This is the first time Hurtigruten has offered its holidays with flights direct from Belfast and it is expected to sell out fast so early booking is recommended.
The voyage is a six-day trip from Tromso to Kirkenes in the far north of Norway, just a few miles from the Russian boarder and back. There is no better way to experience the Northern Lights than by sailing through the sheltered coastal waters of Norway, on board a Hurtigruten ship as the Northern Lights are set against a dark sky, free from artificial light.
In addition, throughout the six days, a wide range of winter activities can be enjoyed with everything from snowmobiling and husky dog sledging to a trip to North Cape or a visit to the Kirkenes Snow Hotel.
ARCTIC HIGHLIGHTS VOYAGE – from £1115 per person including direct return flights from Belfast Airport to Tromso, three night's half board on the ship, two night's in a centrally located Tromso hotel with breakfast, transfers and taxes. Based on two sharing. 24 February 2013 only.

Read: The Islanders Already Had Permission From The Rangers To Be Able To Move
Tom Gulitti tweets that when asked at the press conference announcing the Islanders move to Brooklyn, Gary Bettman "danced" around the question of whether the Rangers had to grant permission to the Islanders.
Gulitti tweets Bettman saying that the Rangers were aware if the move and that he doesn't foresee any issue.
The Rangers and Islanders have an agreement that allows the Islanders to move anywhere in Nassau or Suffolk County, Queens or Brooklyn. This stems back to the Islanders paying the Rangers $4.5 million to move to Long Island in 1972 when they joined the league. The agreement was then amended in 1986 to allow the Islanders to move.
The New York Times, from June 7, 1972, says that the Islanders paid $6 million to join the league and had to pay the Rangers $5 million for territorial rights.
Glen Sather released a statement of support in the past in regards to the Isles arena issues.

Cigar Smoking
Many people view cigar smoking as more sophisticated and less dangerous than cigarette smoking. The traditional cigar is quite large, but today, smaller cigars are much more popular – you can buy them almost anywhere. Except for the brown wrapper, many of these little cigars look just like cigarettes. So when we talk about cigars, we're talking about 2 extremes: on one side is the traditional big cigar, and on the other is the small cigarette-like version. There are also sizes in between.
No matter the size, cigars are tobacco, and they are dangerous to your health. And like cigarettes, cigars give off secondhand smoke, which can fill a room for hours.
Tobacco use is responsible for nearly 1 in 5 deaths in the United States. Tobacco use is an acquired behavior – it's something that people choose to do. This makes smoking the most preventable cause of death in our society.

This sweater has beautiful color and is flattering but the fabric is very thin and where the zipper is sewn in to the neck it pulled away after one gentle washing. I was SO disappointed as I truly did love the sweater and got compliments on it. Too much money for any sweater to fall apart immediately.
