Empowering aging parents with advance planning
While many enjoy the benefits that modern health care offers, such as enhanced quality of life and extended life expectancies, many other Americans find themselves moving into unfamiliar territory -- caring for their aging parents. Conversations that once revolved around children, pediatrician recommendations and schools are turning to discussions about geriatricians and assisted living residences.
To better care for and empower aging loved ones, MGH Geriatric Medicine Unit Coordinator of Social Work, Barbara Moscowitz, MSW, LICSW, encourages all adults to consider advance planning -- for themselves and their aging parents.
"Our parents are now living much longer," Moscowitz says. "Often they do quite well through their 70s and 80s. Then suddenly or gradually, we begin to notice problems and deficits, and their lives and our lives change. Often we are not prepared to effectively or emotionally deal with the transition to caring for our aging parents. But there are several important steps we can take to ensure the comfort, care and dignity of our elderly family members."
Having the Conversation
One of the first and most important steps to caring for aging parents is to start preparing for times of potential crisis. This starts with having open and honest conversations about what the parents would like their children or spouse to do if they are faced with illness or frailty.
"These are critical conversations," says Moscowitz. "In this day and age, retirement can be as long as 40 years, and families ideally should start planning for and with their elderly parents just as they think about planning for a child attending college. This involves more than just thinking about saving money. It involves being forthright in sharing preferences related to choices surrounding medical care, living arrangements and advance directives if the parent is faced with illness or frailty."
Moscowitz explains that these discussions can help equip both the caregivers and elderly adults with appropriate resources, support systems and information, and help both parties emotionally prepare for a potential crisis.
Advance Directives
If the time comes -- due to illness, frailty or accident -- when loved ones can no longer make their own decisions about medical care, it is important to have in place a set of advance
directives, preferably in writing, so that their wishes are specific, clear and available. Some of the types of advance directives are the following:
Health Care Proxy:
Under the Massachusetts Health Care Proxy Act, individuals have the right to appoint another person to make decisions about their health care in the event they cannot do so themselves. This person becomes the health care agent or health care proxy, and he or she can act as such with a completed Health Care Proxy Form. This form is available at most hospitals and can be found at www.healthcareproxy.org.
Living Will: This document details a person's preferences about life-sustaining treatment in the event of terminal illness. Legal immunity is given to caregivers who comply with an appropriately drafted living will. The U.S. Living Will Registry electronically stores all types of advance directives and makes them available to hospitals across the country through an automated system. The system is free and confidential at
Durable Power of Attorney:
Similar to the Health Care Proxy Form but for finances and business affairs, this document allows individuals to designate a surrogate decision-maker, such as a friend or relative, to manage their business matters and make medical decisions if the individual can no longer do so. Individuals should discuss with the surrogate ahead of time the details of their personal business affairs.
Medical Directive:
Those who prepare their medical directive have in writing their wishes regarding various types of medical treatment in several representative medical situations.
Moscowitz encourages individuals, whether they are children of elderly parents or aging themselves, to begin the process of planning in advance for future health care decisions. It is important to note that these decisions can evolve and change as life situations change. Nothing is permanent, and the person who is designating a surrogate and discussing preferences for care is in charge as long as his or her capacity to make decisions is intact. Only a physician can decide when someone is unable to make his or her own decisions.
"Making advance decisions about one's medical care is a right," she says. "People may be afraid to bring it up; the topic can seem depressing. But talking through these types of decisions ahead of time is an opportunity to offer your loved one a real gift. With advance planning, a lot of pain can be avoided. If a time of crisis arises, the caregiver can make decisions that they know their loved one has made and agreed with themselves. Preparing for our aging loved one's health with advance directives is a type of security blanket for both the caregiver and the older adult."

Plan Summer Vacation with
Although I have not traveled nearly as much as Ibn Battuta, I have almost as much to tell. Through two short trips to the Middle East, I have gained the knowledge and experience one may gain in ten years. When I first arrived at Ultimate Peace camp in Akko, Israel, I was ignorant. I knew our goal was to "build bridges of friendships" between the Arabs and the Jews through the awesome sport of Ultimate Frisbee. However, I had absolutely no idea what that would entail aside from actually playing the best sport invented.
Last summer I went on a trip that changed how I view the world. I traveled with NFTY (an international Jewish youth organization) with a hundred other teens to Europe and Israel for five weeks. The trip was designed for Jewish teens to see the past of our ancestors in Europe and the future of our people in Israel. I was fortunate to be grouped with many of my childhood friends.
I stared at it. What stood before me was utterly unexpected and made me reconsider the sanity of the human race. I had always known some of the Israelis were a little out of touch with the rest of the world, but this undoubtedly verified my theory.
This past summer I spent a month in Israel with a Jewish tour group, and over that period of time I set some personal records. To list a few, there was longest time spent without sending a text message, most sweating done over the course of a day, and let's not forget my first (and hopefully last) experience nature-peeing. I discovered that in Israel the iced coffee is better, the falafel is better, and there's a regrettable absence of good Mexican food.
We just landed. This is the saddest landing of my life. I was soaring from the moment we left 10 days ago until now. My spirits have come down 30,000 feet with the plane.
I feel that I learned more about human beings than about Judaism and Israel on this trip. One could argue I didn't learn about humans, but rather I learned about Jews. Regardless, I learned about people. And I must say how much I love people, and being one myself. Before this trip I had notions that were so wrong, and I am so glad to be free of them.
I am an immigrant in my own country. Although born in the United States, I did not speak a word of English until age five. This greatly upset my American grandmother who could not even speak to her first grandson. My parents, however, wanted me to be truly bilingual, so they enforced a strict Hebrew-only policy. Today, some of my friends tease me for a slight accent in my English. I don't mind. My idiosyncrasy allows me to have the confidence to be outside the mainstream.
There are only a few places where one can wake up at 2 am to watch the Super Bowl. Israel is one of them. Unfortunately, an exciting semester abroad there became an uneventful "sick-mester" in bed. By halftime of Super Bowl XLIV, as tension rose between the Colts and the Saints, the mercury rose on my thermometer to 102 degrees.
I need someone to drive my car from LA to wash DC

I rang their call centre frequently, and unlike others, was able to get hold of people. I also chatted online frequently. I can only assume though, that this company hires cheats and liars, because I was constantly reassured that my goods had been dispatched and would definitely be here by Xmas.
I am still yet to receive my PSP and went out and bought another one on Christmas Eve morning. I have reported the website to the Advertising Standards Agency, but they felt there was nothing they could do. I also intend to contact the Office of Fair Trading and Department for Trade and Industry.
I foolishly paid mydv for my PSP using a debit card. I have contacted my bank (Lloyds) and, if you ring them within 60 days of the disputed debit card transaction, they will re-credit your account with the amount taken from you. They then claim this back from the company.
I hope these comments are of some help to others and I desperately pray that this awful company are closed down very shortly.

Personal Patrol Rifle policy
Hello Everyone
A buddy of mine in a smaller agency has been tasked to write up a policy on personally owned assault weapons. His department is going to authorize the purchase (with a letter) by each officer. He's spoken to DOJ already and they have given him the info about the AG opinion regarding issues upon retirement and what could possibly occur in the future. I told him I would ask here because I know several of you have dealt with this issue. So the question is, what does your policy on personally owned assault weopons state regarding retirement and final disposition of the weapon? If I could get a copy of your patrol rifle policy, that would be a real benefit. Why reinvent the wheel. You are welcome to pm me so I can give you my agency email for your op sec.
Please don't make this a thread about it only being an opinion and the department can't do anything about it once you retire. I understand that and explained it to him. I am looking for what your actual policy says. If the new policy doesn't cover all bases then the chief will not allow the policy and will not sign any letters.
Thank you all and stay safe out there on this cold morning.
A life is not important, except for the impact it has on other lives- Jackie Robinson
Our P&P authorizes use of personal rifles on duty, however the Sheriff stopped issuing letters for RAW's.
Our policy does not yet address what happens to the rifle upon retirement.
Then there are sheepdogs and I'm a sheepdog. I live to protect the flock and confront the wolf.
The sheep generally do not like the sheepdog. He looks a lot like the wolf. He has fangs and the capacity for violence.
We have a personal rifle policy as well and we have conflicting opinions on what happens at retirement. The last Chief was all for letting us keep them. But since the new Chief took over, turn it in, sell it or move it out of state....If you still need a copy of a policy, let me know.
My dept just recently instituted a policy that allows us to carry personal rifles on duty. Our chief gave those of us that wanted to purchase a rifle a letter (to purchase a RAW). We were responsible for the purchase of the rifle, any accessories, and the fee to register it as an AW with DOJ.
The dept did say that there is a chance (due to the AG's opinion) that the rifle must either be given to the dept, sold to the dept, or sold to another officer at fair market value when I retire.
The only rifles we can carry are the Colt 6940 or Colt 6920.

Recommended: Maurice Davis Band, Southern Scratch, Columbus Day Legacy
ICTMN Recommends
Maurice Davis Band, Draw the Curtain
On Draw the Curtain (a 2010 release), Maurice Davis, a bluesy soft rocker and direct descendant of Geronimo, delivers an impressive range of musical tracks that combine rock, folk, and a hint of country. Davis, a vocalist who plays 12-string guitar and piano, may remind you of Jason Mraz (most famous for "The Remedy"); we're pretty sure Davis listens to a bit of Coldplay as well. A two-man rhythm section backs Davis with crisp and clean playing, with Jim Okean on bass and Justin Troster on drums.
All ten tracks are great folky tunes, but there are a few standouts. "Red Dress," about a man who cheats on his wife, strikes a fine balance between soft guitar and an upbeat pop tempo. Davis, who was himself abducted as a child, takes extra care with "Missing Children," which benefits from a tasteful touch of violin. The steel guitar by Josh Watson and backup vocals by Allie Noelle on "Walk on By" are also highlights.
Worth Seeking Out
Southern Scratch, How Sweet the Sound
Waila music, also known as "chicken scratch," is the celebratory dance music of the Tohono O'odham (Desert People), and Southern Scratch bandleader Ron Joaquin is the son of Angelo Joaquin, a legend of the genre. How Sweet the Sound includes polkas, cumbias, boleros and other couples dances performed with saxophones, guitars, bass and accordion. With jubilant playing and Spanish vocals (some performed by guests Maria Montaño and Andrea Alston, on "Los Laureles" and "De Colores") this album is a blast from start to finish.

Columbus Day Legacy, directed by Bennie Klain
Native American Public Television
Buy the DVD at VisionMaker
Following the ongoing Columbus Day parade controversy in Denver, Colorado, Navajo director Bennie Klain takes a non-judgmental look at the tensions that have arisen between Denver's Native American and Italian American communities. Though the runtime may be short, the subject matter is compelling and disturbing. Within minutes of the film's start, native activist Russell Means sets the tone by making volatile statements in a conversation with parade organizers on a local radio show. Though Klain does an impressive job of showcasing both sides, it is no easy task to remain objective given some of the imagery: Police and protesters clash openly; activists strew fake bloody babies on the street. What does the parade celebrate: Italian pride or bloody conquest? There's hardly an easy answer. In addition to purchase, viewers can contact their local public television station for program times.

Asahi Eyes Aussie Water
Hot on the heels of its recent capture of New Zealand's Independent Liquor, Japan's Asahi Group Holdings may be poised to make another Antipodean raid.
Dow Jones Newswires reports Wednesday that Asahi has reached a basic deal to buy Australian mineral water supplier Mountain H2O and will soon approach regulators for clearance to finalize the acquisition.
Located on the border between Victoria and New South Wales states, Mountain H20 bottles its owned brand water and the Coles Private label bottled spring water, according to its website. The company was immediately unable to comment when called.
Asahi has been on the offensive Down Under for a while. In July, signed two soft-drink deals in Australia and New Zealand valued at a total of US$309 million, one for a key portion of P & N Beverages Australia. and the other for New Zealand's Charlie's Group.
Drinks and beverage businesses in Australia are attracting attention from overseas players hoping to cash in on rising demand that could come from a steadily growing economy. SABMiller expects to close its 9.9 billion Australian dollar (US$9.6 billion) takeover of Australian brewer Foster's Group by the end of the year after Australia's government last week approved the deal.

"Over 30 Years = Works Great!"
My home came with a Payne heat pump. The home was built in 1979. The unit is still functioning perfectly. In the past 25 years, the heat pump has had two tuneups. It's quiet, efficient, and resists rust. Although the SEER rating is around 6, our monthly bill for our all-electric home of 2200 sq ft is a year-round average of $150. Not bad, considering 7 people use the home. Thanks a lot, Payne!

Brand New Payne Heat Pump installed and it's defrost mode is so loud that we can't sleep. Payne refuses to fix it, despite the numerous complaints found on the internet. They claim it's normal and if you don't like then spend another $225.00 to put in a different circut board. I'm looking into filing a class action suite against them.

We purchased a new heat pump 18 Mo. ago. During our 6 Mo. checkup they found a large leak in the coil.The installer is replacing the coil today.We don't have to pay for the coil, but we do have to pay for the installation and the collant that leaked out. We feel after paying 3,500.00 dollars only 18 mo. ago we should not have to pay anything. We feel we should be reembersed. for these coasts. We would like your feed back on this matter.

"Package unit heat pump"
The new Payne package units are quite impressive. I install for a living (10+ years). The reason I like them is they have a tin-plated coil and in Florida that can help coil leak problems. They also are engineered to be serviced and troubleshot...every major component is accessible through one panel that you can remove without interfering with system function. This is a big advantage that few other models have. They also use Copeland scroll compressors which are the top standard.

"4 years of good service"
We have 3 Payne 2006 model heatpumps. They all cool and heat great. The temperature manages to stay within 1-2 degrees year round. In the summer the humidity stays under 50%. We once had a leak in the evaporator of the 3 ton unit; it was covered under warranty. Later on the 2 ton unit began blowing out thermostat fuses, we had someone repair the fualty wiring. Laer down the road,someone steped on the liguid line and the unit developed a leak at a bolt type connection. The connection hadn't been tightend like it should during installation. After having those problem fixed the heatpumps work great again. They get the coils cleaned every 6 months, the blower every year and the filter are replaced as neccessary since they cost about $9 a piece.

Less than 3 years and we have called the installer 3 times for repair. The final repair was the compressor and another part that cost us over one thousand dollars for repair. A unit under 3 years old should NOT go bad so quickly.

"Payne is great"
I own an HVAC company in the Washington DC area and I install Paynes on a weekly basis. Just about every issue here is due to poor installation. When you purchase a Payne/Carrier/Bryant unit, the evap coil is the same. They do not switch the box. The color the coil they use the same adp coil. The compressor as well as valves are all the same. Biggest diff is the color. What do you see on tv commercials for Trane and Carrier? I sell alot of Trane. In my opinion, they are the best for the little things they do for the installer, tilting the valves etc. but cost the most due to the rep and high consumer report ratings. You will almost never recoup the energy savings costs. By the time you do, the system will be due for replacement. You rarely if ever see a commercial for Payne which keeps costs down. All of the units have the 10 year warranty now so compressor replacements and other parts should have been done under warranty and typically when you have a unit installed a reputable company will give you a 1 year labor warranty and with the new r410 refrigerant older line sets that are soldered need to be replaced due to the higher pressures and newer line sets as long as sied properly can be flushed with r11 or another flushing agent to remove any residue and oil from the old unit which will prevent any compressor sludging or txv clogging. Payne is a great value esp with these tough economic times. I push Payne to any customer on a budget but if your looking for highest efficiency variable speed top of the line, stick with Trane or Carriers infinity series both are amazing systems.

A Guy Pranked People on Chatroulette by Pretending to Pleasure Himself . . . but He Was Actually Drying Dishes [Video]
Posted August 8th, 2014 @ 5:51am
Five years after it launched, Chatroulette is still the place to go if you want to see a bunch of random dudes PLEASURING THEMSELVES. Which is why THIS is great.
Some guy on Chatroulette pranked random people by making it LOOK like that's what he was doing. He sat in front of his computer with no shirt on, and did a stroking motion. But you couldn't see WHAT he was stroking.
Then after a second or two, he revealed he was actually just drying a PLATE. Or he'd mix it up, and be polishing a shoe. And he also had a shirtless buddy help him out a few times, so it looked like they were pleasuring each other.

Florida Workers' Compensation Laws (Chapter 440)
If you have been injured at work, your employer is obligated to provide free medical care plus weekly wage loss benefits until you can return to your job. However, once your doctor states that you are at "maximum medical improvement" (MMI), your employer and insurance carrier will most likely attempt to significantly slash, reduce or terminate your benefits, whether you are able to work or not, and whether you are really at MMI or not. Insurance Carriers and employers attempt to manipulate your treating physician to declare you at a state of MMI and then notify you that your benefits have ceased in whole or in part. Rarely does an insurance carrier or employer tell you that you may not be at overall MMI, or you have the right to challenge the MMI with another opinion such as selecting a change in physicians or an IME (independent medical examination) with a physician of your own choosing. Delays in authorizing an IME, second opinion or one-time charge of the treating physician are part of the games insurance carriers and insurance claims adjusters play to purposefully frustrate and harm injured workers. You need an attorney to protect and enforce your rights and, where needed, to file a Petition for Benefits on your behalf. The insurance carrier and employer need to be held accountable if they do not act timely, quickly and per the requirements of the law.
The experienced trial lawyers of Feldman Morgado are committed to protecting the rights of injured workers in Tampa and throughout Florida. We understand that your employer and their insurance carrier will use every tactic to deny or minimize your claim and force you back to work as soon as possible.
Prior to opening our practice, attorney Mitchell L. Feldman spent 15 years defending insurance companies in workers' compensation litigation. He knows their tactics and how to beat them. Call us at 800-669-0151 to schedule a free initial consultation.
What Happens After I Reach MMI in Florida?
If the authorized doctor has decided that you are at or getting close to MMI, then crucial decisions need to be made about how to proceed such that time is of the essence so that you explore your options and are not left without any income. Remember, the insurance company is not interested in you and neither is your employer. All they want is to pay the least amount possible in benefits and get you back to work, whether you are physically capable or not.
Free Consultation — Call 800-669-0151
At this stage in your case, making the wrong decision about how to proceed could deal a fatal blow to your case. Let us fight the insurance company on your behalf and make sure you receive the benefits you need. Contact us today for a free initial consultation. We have offices in Tampa, Ocala, Naples, Jacksonville, Fort Lauderdale and Miami.

poised or coiled to move through the 100 day with the 200 day easily within reach. Any thoughts?
This is just technical. But it's true there is resistance at around $3. In the past, this downtrend rejected the stock. For it to move higher it should break through solidly with volume. Will see at the end of the day or tomorrow.
Sentiment: Hold

Hello Gylfi Sigurdsson = bye bye Modric?
"What worries me though, is if that is the case and that is honestly what you believe, why have Sfer and SB both said they would have given him another year? A manager who doesn't want to get as high as possible?
If that is the yardstick for normal, then I'm quite glad that I'm classed as weird. "
john, i think that shows a lot about u then us.
part of your problem is everything is so black & white.
life & football are much more complex.
if u see everything so black & white then u will find most people who dont think like that weird.
anyway. to answer your question.
harry has done a lot of good things for spurs.
he has also recentley made quite a few mistakes.
i would have given him another year because of the previous work he has done. yes u can pick holes in my reasoning but i think lots of good work deserves to buy u some time.
u dont like the way i say i like harry but then criticise him.
the fact u find that so weird says more about u john.
even with the best managers, fans can find lots of things they did wrong. it doesnt mean they cant say they like them because they criticise them.
for example fergie. he has been superb for utd.
but obviously utd fans can list tons of mistakes he has made.
this doesnt mean they cant say they like fergie because they criticise him.
he has made a lot of bad signings.
he still thinks his CM area is strong enough. it has clearly been far too weak for a few yrs now.
but they realise all the good stuff he has done clearly out weighs the mistakes.
these mistakes are inevitable. no manager is flawless.
if u think so black & white like u, either u are flawless or u are bad. u give yourself no middle ground & u make things far too simplistic this way.
but to make matters worse u then go in to great depth & things that arent as relevant.
i think harry cost us big time last season. he messed up badly with previously mentioned decisions. we will lose modric & a lot of money because of it.
this is good enough reason to sack harry on its own.
im a soft touch, i would give him 1 more year to learn from his mistakes as a reward for previous good work he has done.
i think more because i want to see him do well & it work out between the club & him.
but do i think harry will learn from his mistakes & take us foward?
NO! he has become more stubborn in his mistakes.
& now finds it hard to admit making any when he so obviously has. in interviews he has become annoying like daglish.
levy has made a brave decision in sacking harry.
but i do think its the right one because i dont think harry will learn from his mistakes & i do think he has limitations in his attributes.
huge contradiction from me! i say id give harry 1 more year but i dont belive he will take us foward.
hard for u to understand john, i know!
levy doesnt want to waste another year on harry especially after the way he went about contract negotiations.
it was really taking the P.
another reason i would have given harry another year is because there isnt many better managers about we could attract.
im sure if we dont finish top 4th next season, people say we would have done with harry. but i disagree.
if anything next season will be much harder. chelsea cant be as bad. arsenal & liverpool hugely under performed too.
so unless all 3 of them under perform again, next season will be a lot tougher to get top 4. especially without key man modric.
main reason modric is going, lack of CL football.
thats harrys doing!

A DISCO shed in East Oxford has come top of its category in the national Shed of the Year competition.
The shed, which is equipped with turntables, lights and a smoke machine, was named as the best 'normal' shed after a public vote.
It is owned by Paddy Bickerton and Aidan Larkin, who take it to music festivals around the country.
Mr Bickerton said: "We're really pleased. It's great we've won the audience award – it's nice to be popular."
The groovin' shack was up against a diner shed, a wartime Blitz museum and an outhouse inspired by the Titanic in the Channel 4 programme Amazing Spaces: Shed of the Year, presented by George Clarke, which aired on Thursday.
The overall Shed of the Year competition was won by an allotment shed in North London.
Mr Bickerton – who DJs under the name Peepshow Paddy – said that the duo may not enter the competition again.
He said: "It's a fairly niche competition, I don't know whether they'll want to film the same sheds again next year. But maybe, who knows?"

Skip to comments.Clash in Paris Metro Leads to Closure
Posted on 03/27/2007 11:39:29 AM PDT by SmithL
PARIS, France (AP) --
About 100 youths clashed Tuesday with subway inspectors and police at Paris' Gare du Nord metro station, which was closed to traffic following the altercation, transportation officials said.
A standoff between police officers and about 100 youths was still under way early Tuesday evening, said officials from Paris' RATP public transport authority.
The incident began when one of the youths punched two subway inspectors during a routine ticket check
(Excerpt) Read more at sfgate.com ...
Ah... those fractious youths again.
Youths? That's pretty vague.
Those crazy French yout's. What's next? Car burnings?
Youths?? A lot of them look like they are in their 20`s and older if you ask me. All primed and ready not to work in Surrenderland.
What's new here?
Yeah...probably just a rambunctious bunch of Catholic boys on their way home from catechism class.
Jaques, Pierre, and Judeaux at it again? Or might it be Abdul, Omar, and Muhammed? Don't count on the frog press to make the differentiation.
I guess they have to take the subway, now that there's a shortage of cars.
I don't think they have to make it. Their reading public already knows without it being told.
Wow...I was just in the Gare du Nord metro station yesterday afternoon, on my way to Charles de Gaulle airport (and getting out of France).
Are there any cars left to burn?
Thank God there were no cars around. You know how the French youths get urges of pyromania around cars.
That's a major station hub. This would bring the city to a screeching halt toute suite.
Yes, the Gare du Nord metro station is a major transportation hub. I recall going through there a number of times. This is not in one of the slums.
Nasty hood around there.
If you're switching from the RER coming from the north to Metro lines on the Right Bank, it's a popular place to transfer.
I beg to differ. Ever walk toward the northeast from that station?
Well why on earth should the little socialists have to pay for train tickets? They are being given everything else, why not a free ride at someone else's exxpense.
Paris? It looks more like Washington, D.C. or Detroit! I thought French people were white!
If you want on or off to the list, go to the link and follow the instructions.
There's a picture in comment 1, if you're looking for something more precise.
French are Europeans but they have lots of people from their former colonies (hence that "Eurabia" thing going on around FR). Most are light-skinned, but not all--and definitely not in the major cities. The same in the United States.
*(rhetorical question). And while your comment wasn't exactly intelligent, you yourself could be.
The fruits of a socialist utopia.
If I posted my opinion of your comment, it would be removed. I trust you could use your imagination; my opinion is other than charitable.
There are some not-so-nice areas near the Gare du Nord. Most people in the station aren't from the neighborhood, they're there because it's a major rail hub (metro, commuter, regional and inter-city) that handles 180 million inter-city rail passengers alone per year. Compare that to the 4.3 million that New York's Penn Station sees, and you get a sense of how big this is.
Oh, and put your eye back in!
I was TRYING to eat lunch while reading! ROFL! Anyone know the Heimlich maneuver?
French people haven't been white for a long time.
The black population itself is probably 5% of the population. The Beurs are probably 10-15%. Southern French are Mediterranean and relatively dark. It's a very diverse country racially and ethnically.
I haven't been there in a long time, I must confess.
Somewhere on this site there's a great set of World War I photos from the French Army in the trenches on the Western Front. One of the more surprising thing in the pictures is the number of black soldiers from French Africa. Something like 10-15% of French forces during the war were blacks, either from the overseas departments or the African colonies. The Empire made a substantial contribution to the war effort.
This is the thing about France that makes it so very different from the rest of Continental Europe. The rest of the countries in Europe very nearly correspond to racial (in the European sense), ethnic and linguistic lines. France of course corresponds to linguistic lines, but that is only because of 200 years of public education. There is a French culture, but it is like American culture - learned, adopted from the state that cobbled the country together. France doesn't descend from one tribe, but is at the crossroads of Europe and incorporates all of the tribes of Europe. And then France and England raced to conquer and colonize the whole world, so you end up having French Asians and French Africans, French Polynesians and French Amerindians.
There is an old saying in France about the difference between France and England in this idea of who is French, or can be French. It is "Est anglais qui peut; est francais qui veut" - literally "Is English who can be; is French who wishes to be". Or in other words, one can choose to be French, because to be French is to adopt a language and a culture, but one cannot choose to be English, because it's an innate ethnic quality, like being Dutch or Swedish or Polish or Czech or Serb.
This is all because France was for centuries not just the biggest state in Western Europe, but the most populous state in Europe (it was not until after 1800 that the population of Russia exceeded that of France, and then only slightly for a long time). France was big in terms of territory, but vast in terms of the polyglot of tribes and peoples and cultures. What made France was the monarchy welding it together with one faith, one law, one God, one King. Before there was anything like the sense of ethnic nationalism, which the Napoleonic Wars and the French Revolution ended up awakening in Europe, there were the various kingdoms of Europe. But all of them except for Muscovy in the far East, were little bits of Kingdoms, confined to one ethnic group or another. Yes, there was The Empire (Germany), but it was an utter sprawling mess composed of over a thousand petty kingdoms, and an Empire in nothing but name. The Emperor had title, but no command.
England was the only other Kingdom in Europe whose basic bone structure came down from the Dark Ages, like France's did, but England was a little bitty thing compared to France. In 1800, there were maybe 8 million English. There were about 38 million French. France simply dwarfed everyone, because it was truly a Kingdom that expanded into the void and ended up holding so many peoples within its bounds for so long that they BECAME something new: French.
This is most similar to China, in the East, and in a real sense the overwhelming influence France had for a thousand years on the whole of Europe was due to the same thing that gave China such influence over the rest of East Asia: sheer volume of people and relative size and wealth have a powerful centripetal draw. France was about the limit for a medieval kingdom. The Empire was well past it, and flew to pieces.
Insightful post. Comparing the results of English Colonialism (a great number of people descended from other people from the British Isles most comfortable with those most like themselves) with French, Portugese, and Spanish Colonialism (a great number of people descended in part from the people colonizing but primarily from the original inhabitants who have adopted certain key aspects of the colonial power's culture--e.g. Catholicism, an official language, and some of the bureaucratic structure), I've often thought of some of these differences as the result of differences resulting from a world view that begins with a Catholic starting point versus one that starts from a Protestant starting point. Two of your four welding points (one faith and one God) bring this aspect out, but you have much to add that I had not thought about. Among other things, by identifying four welding points (the other two being the King and the law), you make it evident that the revolution, by dumping three of the four ends up relying exclusively on the law, which will change much.
Nice post. It gives me more to think about. Do you read Belloc?
I have not read Belloc. I am honestly quite poorly read in the traditional sense, because I eschew reading other people's opinions of what happened, much preferring to read actual legal documents, annals and looking at treaties. My basic assumption is a fundamentally Catholic and Christian one: that human beings are everywhere the same, with similar motives, and always have been since the dawn of man. So, culture and leadership inflect the expression of human desires, but only to a degree. The human desires are the same, and medieval Japanese or the Chippewa hunting parties are not really any more difficult to understand than modern Americans. Given the extremely multiracial nature of my family, I have had nothing but resounding confirmation of this intellectual prejudice of mine. Although it's not true, technically-speaking, that there is nothing new under the sun, it is true in terms of the human heart and human motivations.
You mention the difference between Catholic and Protestant colonization, and it is so, yet between the three Catholic colonial powers: Spain, Portugal and France there were nevertheless key differences that made the outcomes quite different. Of note, although Brazil speaks Portuguese, and the rest of Latin America speaks Spanish, the ties with Spain are distant and vague, nothing like the close heart-ties between England and America, and certain nothing like the universal sense of "La Francophonie", with French troops to back it up!, that still persists in most of the former French Empire. Consider that there are over a million French citizens in the Americas, and that the EU literally touches Canada (the islands of St. Pierre et Miquelon are integral parts of France), and the EU is literally in the Caribbean (the departments of Guadeloupe, Martinique and French Guiana are not colonies, but integral parts of France, with seats in Parliament and direct votes for the President - like Hawaii vis-a-vis the USA); there is a strong difference between French colonial history and everyone else's.
We needn't parse it too hard. When the French spoke of "la mission civilizatrice", they were completely seriously. When they spoke of "black Frenchmen", they MEANT it, and blacks and whites were on a plane of complete juridical equality in France, not a sham equality, since the 19th Century.
It is true that the King himself is gone, and has been gone since 1870, but the centralizing power, the centripetal force of the French state, remains. The French State is at the apex of all things in France, and the French, left right and center, cannot envision how it could be otherwise and run effectively. On the margins there is SOME appetite (mostly in the UDF) to try and disengage the day-to-day management of all affairs by the state, but even among the UDF there is no belief that the State doesn't have the POWER and RIGHT to regulate everything. It is, rather, the sense that the State doesn't do some things well, and so should ALLOW private actors greater freedom of action, always, however, subject to supervision.
Une foi, une loi, un Dieu, un Roi! is still the principle of France, really, though the "King" is now "la Republique">
Thanks cincinna.
"liberte egalite fraternite" all sound great on paper. Unfortunately, in practice, it is nowhere near true. After living in France for more than 12 years, I have found the French to be anything but. They are racist,anti-semitic,anti-American.I realize this is a large generalization with exceptions, but on the whole, it is asrounding to see people give lip service to those values, and live exactly opposite.
The leftist elites are the most guilty on the anti-semitic and anti-American counts, although I was shocked to find it on all levels of French society.
They can say "youths". We know exactly what they mean. They can not hide the facts by deleting un-PC words.
Lying media lets us see the truth in spite of itself.
Well, the French ARE free. Liberte has been taken to the point of the libertin.
The egalite and fraternite parts need some work.
"liberte" and "Liberty" are nowhere near the same thing.
Indeed, the same could be said of that type in the US and even the whole world.
Having spent some travel time out of the Paris metro region, I do say that I have liked many of the French I have encountered.
I have found the French to be wonderful, warm, gracious, and hospitable people. Of course, as an American, the group is pre-selected in a way.
Most of the French people I know have strong American ties through school, ancestry, or interest.
"I'm Singin' In the Rain.....Just Singing In the Rain..."
I disagree.
Of course.

NEW YORK - Two IFL stars, Roy Nelson and Ryan Schultz will make their second respective title defenses and another, Ryan McGivern will make his first when the International Fight League returns to the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., with a minimum of nine bouts scheduled for Friday, May 16.
HDNet will have live television coverage of the event.
The night will also mark the IFL debuts for the Bomb Squad, a Northeast-based camp which will take on Mario Sperry'?s World Class Fight Center from Las Vegas, and for Team Prodigy, an Ohio-based camp which will battle Matt Lindland?'s Team Quest of Portland, Ore.
In the title bouts, Nelson will defend his heavyweight belt against UFC veteran Branden Lee Hinkle. Nelson won the title in December at Mohegan Sun with a knockout of Antoine Jaoude, then defended with a decisive first-round TKO over Fabiano Scherner in Las Vegas in February.
Schultz will battle Deividas Taurosevicius for the lightweight crown. Schultz also won his title in his last visit to Mohegan Sun in December, bouncing Chris Horodecki from the ranks of the unbeaten, then earned a decision win over John Gunderson in Las Vegas in February to defend.
McGivern, one of the most improved fighters in the IFL, took the middleweight belt from Matt Horwich in February and has won three of his past four bouts.

LAS VEGAS - Lightweight Ryan Schultz and heavyweight Roy Nelson defended their respective International Fight League titles and middleweight Ryan McGivern won his first belt before 3,931 at the IFL event last night at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas.
Schultz grinded out a unanimous decision over John Gunderson to retain his title, maintaining strong position throughout the match. Most of the bout was contested on the ground, with both fighters escaping potential chokes in the final two rounds.
Nelson earned a first-round TKO victory over Fabiano Scherner to defend his heavyweight crown. Nelson took Scherner down midway through the round and used a flurry of right hands to secure the stoppage at 3:20.
In what many felt was the best bout of the night, McGivern topped defending champion Matt Horwich by unanimous decision in a battle in which both fighters had strong moments.
Horwich nearly secured an armbar at the end of the second round, when McGivern was likely saved by the bell. In the closing seconds of the fourth round, McGivern delivered a series of strikes that staggered the former champion, but the champion held on until the bell.

NEW YORK - IFL titleholders Matt Horwich, Roy Nelson and Ryan Schultz will defend their belts when the International Fight League opens its 2008 schedule with an eight-bout card at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas on Friday, February 29.
In addition to the three Championship bouts, team competition will feature Matt Lindland?'s Team Quest vs. Ken Shamrock?'s Lions Den and Team Xtreme Couture vs. Mario Sperry?'s MMA Top Team.
Horwich, who claimed the middleweight title with a victory over Benji Radach at the IFL World Grand Prix on December 29, will defend his crown against Tim Kennedy who won all three of his IFL matchups in 2007 with first or second-round finishes.
Nelson, who knocked out Antoine Jaoude to win the heavyweight crown, will take on IFL newcomer Fabiano Scherner, who trains with Lindland at Team Quest. Schultz, whose lightweight victory over Chris Horodecki raised eyebrows in the entire MMA community, makes the first defense of his lightweight belt against John Gunderson, who competes for the Lions Den.
?"This card is a good example of how the flexibility of our new format makes for great matchups,? said IFL Commissioner Kurt Otto. ?Fans will get to see three Championship bouts, plus some exciting team competition feeding some of our upcoming title fights.?"

Four other championship fights also took place, including victories by Roy ?"Big Country" Nelson at heavyweight, Wagnney Fabiano at featherweight, Jay Hieron at welterweight, and Matt Horwich at middleweight.
The five championships were the most ever contested on one night in North American MMA history.
Schultz took control early in the first round and continued to pound Horodecki before the referee stepped in late in the round to stop the bout. Schultz had been named a late replacement in the title bout after injuries to Horodecki?'s previous two opponents.

NEW YORK - Veteran Ryan ?The Lion? Schultz, will replace John Gunderson in the International Fight League World Grand Prix lightweight championship against undefeated (11-0) star Chris ?The Polish Hammer? Horodecki on Saturday, December 29, at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. Five Championship bouts will be contested that night, believed to be unprecedented in North America.
Gunderson aggravated a hand injury in training after being named as a replacement for the injured Shad Lierley on Wednesday.
Schultz, a member of the Wolfpack, based in Portland and coached by Matt Lindland, is 4-2 in IFL competition, including 3-0 in 2007. He earned decision victories over Joe Sampieri and Savant Young during the regular season, and topped Aaron Riley in a preliminary bout at the IFL team finals in September. One of his IFL defeats came at the hands of Horodecki via TKO in November 2006. Schultz?'s overall MMA mark is a strong 17-9-1.
