We really enjoyed breakfast in the reataurant.
I just love the Fairmont Royal York Hotel. Its old world charm makes you feel so good. Just enter the lobby and it grabs you. You have to give it a try.
It is also located in such a great spot in the heart of the City. It allows you to take in the city life so easily by foot.

Milvago is a genus of bird of prey in the Falconidae family.
It contains the following species:
- Yellow-headed caracara, Milvago chimachima
- Chimango caracara, Milvago chimango
They are native to South America, with M. chimachima just reaching to the Isthmus of Panama and into Costa Rica. Prehistorically the genus extended into the Caribbean. There it might have become extinct as late as after the arrival of the first humans in the early Holocene[citation needed], though there is no evidence for this at present and they more likely disappeared already during the last glacial period.[citation needed]
Fossil record:
- Milvago brodkorbi (Late Pleistocene of Peru)
- Milvago alexandri (Late Pleistocene of Hispaniola, West Indies)
- Jamaican caracara, Milvago tellustris (Late Pleistocene/Holocene of Jamaica, West Indies)
- Cuban caracara, Milvago carbo (Holocene of Cuba, West Indies)
A paleosubspecies of the yellow-headed caracara from Florida is also known.

Julien Carette
Jump to
Character actor Julien Carette found a niche in the early days of French film and occupied it through a distinguished career that lasted over thirty years and 100 films. Born Julien Victor in Paris at the end of the 19th century, he worked in a variety of odd jobs before finally discovering his true calling as an entertainer. Like many of his peers in those days, his work in music halls and small theaters lead to him breaking into film. His first full-length feature appearance was in 1931's "American Love," and apparently he made quite an impression because he never wanted for movie work after that. With his strong presence and pronounced Paris accent, Carette was easy to cast in roguish or comic roles in movies set in the French capital or as distinctly Parisian characters. Perhaps the highest-profile work the actor appeared in was Jean Renoir's classic anti-war movie "Grand Illusion"(1937). The film, which spotlighted Carette in a small but showy part as a brash actor, was the first foreign work to be nominated for a Best Picture Oscar. That appearance very much pleased his director, and Carette played roles in many of Renoir's subsequent films. These include the French Revolution period drama "Le Marseillaise" (1938) and the classic 1939 high society satire "The Rules of the Game."

You people that keep spewing about wealthy people being evil make me disgusted. So many losers bashing achievers and people that go out and make something great out of their life instead of sitting home drinking beer and watching mindless TV shows like american idol or CSI or any of that other garbage they put on tv.
Yes there are some crooked people, but I assure you there are MANY more crooked broke people.
I go out and achieve the "American dream" and some schmuck wants to criticize me, why?
Cause their jealous as hell because they don't know what to do or are too lazy to get off their ass and make something happen.
Raising taxes on the 1% won`t increase the revenue much!
You said 7 out of 10 people make less than 50K right? I think that it's funny how when numbers like that get thrown around people include all the jiggaboos on wellfare who don't EARN a dime. That's 3-4 of the 7 right there. And how this country kids itself about the unemployment rate. 7% MY ASS! Add the wellfare rolls to that. IT'S LIKE 35%! But nobody wants to talk about that because then we would have to address the problem. 65% of the ex slaves refuse to work. And we pay them because if we didn't we would have violent insurrection. Is this not a fact? This country is in for a serious come to jesus in the next 1-50 years. Take my money...YOU'RE CRAZY YOU ALREADY GET HALF IS THAT NO ENOUGH!
Median household income was over $50k per US census bureau, so you are drawing conclusions from faulty data.
No matter how much govt taxes people, there will always be some making more than others. Those making less can either whine and complain or work their way up. Getting handouts from govt will not improve their lot.
In america, not everyone can drive cadillacs...but you can still drive a corolla...there is this sense of "entitlement" and people don't want to work hard for a living anymore and they want give me give give give me...how do you think part of the reason we got here today with this financial meltdown? people don't live within their means and want to be rich...living within their means saves money and don't starve like other people in the developing countries or europe...you should get out more and see other countries...america's poor here have it really good...

I never really thought much about photography until we ripped out the lawns in our typical Silicon Valley yard and installed a native garden for wildlife. As the garden came to life with bugs and birds I couldn't identify, I grabbed a camera to help me with the IDs.
But one visitor to the garden was easy to identify. Whirling wings, chirps, and bright flashes of greens caught my eye as they darted into the nest of flowers for a drink — hummingbirds.
Just because I could see the hummingbirds though didn't mean I could capture them with my camera. I became obsessed with getting photos of them in flight. Sometimes I got lucky but most of the time I got blurry birds or no birds at all.
Last weekend I attended a workshop in the Santa Cruz mountains on how to photograph hummingbirds. I learned a lot in just one day using my pretty ordinary equipment; a Nikon D7000, a 70-300 f/4.5-5.6 lens, and a SB-700 flash.
Watching the birds for a while so you understand their flying behavior is key. You need to be patient, both with their coming and going to the feeders and plants, and with yourself. Expect to take a lot of shots that you throw away. While a fast, large lens is nice, for those of us with less fancy equipment, great photos are still possible. Flash, while not always needed, made a huge improvement in my photographs. (Not the little on camera flash.)
We are lucky enough here in the Bay Area to have many hummingbirds stay with us year-round giving us a lots of photographic opportunities. More info on future hummingbird photography workshops led by Meggi Raeder & Judy Bingman can be found here.
Susan Taylor Brown is a local writer and native plant gardener. She blogs about making a home for wildlife in the suburbs, and about her writing life. And check out her Flickr page for more amazing photos of hummingbirds.

Everything about this hotel is amazing! From the complimentary wine while checking in, to the pet friendly amenities- I was impressed with it all! Me and my husband live 20 minutes away but feel like we are vacation every time we stay here.
The staff here is incredibly friendly, even for an expensive hotel. They go above and beyond what one would normally expect. Very dog friendly too, a huge plus for us. When we checked in they delivered a dog bed and bowls to our room, very cool!
Construction at 8am on a Sunday? Surely that couldn't wait for midday during the week...really frustrating given how much you pay for this experience. Only complaint I've got though, this place is amazing.
Charming, wonderful place to stay. And the pastries for breakfast were incredible. Highly recommended.

Moyes is the man! Van Persie backs United boss to turn things around at Old Trafford
Manchester United striker Robin van Persie has given a timely vote of confidence to manager David Moyes and has backed the Scot to lead the Barclays Premier League champions back up the table.
Van Persie has not played since injuring his thigh at the start of December and is not yet back on the training field during a season that sees United lying seventh in the Premier League table ahead of Sunday's visit to Chelsea.
But the 30-year-old Dutch international has spoken out in support of Moyes after United lost three of their last four games in all competitions.
Backing: Manchester United striker Robin van Persie (left) believes manager David Moyes (right) will improve their recent poor form
Struggling: United have lost three of their last four games in all competitions but Van Persie is optimistic about the rest of the season
Rare sight: Moyes has been unable to call on Van Persie in recent weeks because of a persistent thigh injury
Van Persie said: 'Moyes needs time, he's new. The manager is our leading man and he will change things around. We lost too many points this year, but we are doing everything we can to change that.'
Van Persie will not play at Chelsea on Sunday while strike partner Wayne Rooney only has an outside chance after returning from a break in Egypt.
Rooney has been having treatment on an abdominal injury and is still feeling some discomfort but Van Persie has thanked the 28-year-old for helping him become a better player.
'We realise that we are stronger when we are playing together, as a partnership,' Van Persie added.
Partners: Van Persie is looking forward to playing with Wayne Rooney when he returns to full fitness
Missing: United will be without both Van Persie and Rooney for Sunday's crunch game with Chelsea
'You are always stronger, in any sport, in life, when you are doing stuff together. With a player of Wayne's calibre, we can go from strength to strength, and we can become even better.
'One game he will score a couple, the next game I will score a couple. It is important that this partnership is becoming even stronger.
'In a way we are both "nine-and-a-halves", because we can play high up front and we can drop.
'That is an extra quality we have, which is quite rare. If you look around you have loads of main strikers, target men, foxes-in-the-boxes, and you have No 10s who are dropping in more.
'With us it's not obvious because we can both do that job. Wayne is doing a bit more, because he is playing behind me, but we can both do it.'
All smiles: Van Persie celebrates a goal against Fulham with Rooney (right) and Adnan Januzaj (left)
Van Persie also revealed how words of wisdom from former Holland striker Marco van Basten sharpened his focus in front of goal.
'The way he (Van Basten) looked at football was ice cold,' said Van Persie. 'I remember a game against Manchester City and I hit the bar, the post twice and one chance went just by it, and we lost that game.
'I went to play for Holland and he asked me: "How was your game?" I said: "Yes, actually quite good." Then he said: "How was your game?" I said: "Yes actually not bad. I was a bit unlucky, but I think I played well. I hit the post and the bar..."
Wise words: Van Persie says advice from former Holland boss Marco van Basten (left) helped him improve in front of goal
'He said: "No, no, Robin, it's not good enough. You need to make sure that you score those goals, that they don't hit the post or the bar, and you should not be happy if it hits the bar or the post, because the bar or the post is not a goal. So, no it was not good. I watched the game and you've got to change your mentality of looking at those situations."
'He opened my mind, because he was right.'
Moyes did receive one piece of good news yesterday when midfielder Marouane Fellaini trained with the ball in the company of club physios. The Belgian has been sidelined with a wrist injury that required surgery and is not yet ready for contact action.
Another midfielder, the Brazilian Anderson, meanwhile, flew to Italy for talks with Fiorentina about a loan swap.

I wonder if any of our 9-0 teams will be upset? Atlanta, Green Bay, Carolina, New England, Indianapolis and Houston.
wrt to the Redskins, the future is now. Two playoff appearances in the last 20 freaking years. No way they pass this up. Making the playoffs would be a tonic this franchise badly needs. Even a one-and-done would be a huge win.
Just winning out against divisional opponents -- especially the Cowboys at FedEx -- would ignite long-dormant passion in fans and restore a measure of the faith that has been steadily eroded on Lil' Danny's watch.
STL @TB, very close, and so I guess when in doubt go with the home team? right?
I'd give STL more of a chance, due to D and not O.
What's a bit worrisome for STL fans is a recent article by Advanced NFL stats see: http://www.advancednflstats.com/2012...landscape.html
there's a blurb on Bradford and his projected stats for the end of this season: " **With a 0.03 EPA/P, Sam Bradford would join this list at the end of the season. "
We'll see what Fisher will do...
It would be out of this world if he brought in AFL QB Tommy Grady, who was beaten out by Bradford at Oklahoma and Grady beats out Bradford at STL.... just a little speculation...

Review/Opera; Bayreuth 'Ring' Has Brechtian Flavor
By JOHN ROCKWELL, Special to the New York Times
Published: July 30, 1988
BAYREUTH, West Germany, July 29— Every five years or so, the Bayreuth Festival mounts a new production of Wagner's ''Ring des Nibelungen,'' and it is always big news - in part because a new ''Ring'' means four operas, not just one, staged at this Wagnerian shrine.
The last Bayreuth ''Ring,'' directed by Sir Peter Hall and conducted by Sir Georg Solti for the 1983 centenary of Wagner's death, was a fiasco, even if some subsequent performances improved over the years after both Sir Peter and Sir Georg had left.
This year, the tetralogy has been entrusted to the East German director Harry Kupfer, with Daniel Barenboim conducting. Historically, the choice of Mr. Kupfer is a piquant move by Wolfgang Wagner, the composer's grandson and director of the festival. In the 1960's, Mr. Wagner's elder brother Wieland and Walter Felsenstein, director of the East Berlin Komische Oper, were regarded as the two sharply contrasting geniuses of German operatic stage direction. Wieland Wagner specialized in grandly ritualistic stage pictures; Felsenstein's forte was brilliantly inventive realism.
Mr. Kupfer now runs the Komische Oper, and carries on the Felsenstein tradition. But his ''Ring'' also evinces a classic simplicity, and thus represents a symbolic rapprochement between two styles (as well as two Germanies). Even more fascinating, it seems that way in practice, too.
Or at least that was a tentative conclusion after the first two operas in the cycle, ''Das Rheingold'' Wednesday night and ''Die Walkure'' on Thursday. It is always dangerous to venture judgments on a ''Ring'' only halfway through, especially one as filled with surprises and inventiveness as this one is.
Still, one guiding spirit behind Mr. Kupfer's vision seems to be Bertolt Brecht - perhaps inevitable for an East Berliner, as much a statement of principle, an attestation of ancestry, as anything else.
Curiously, though, Brecht is manifested in different guises in the two operas. In ''Das Rheingold,'' it is in the comic portrayal of the gods as petit-bourgeois parvenus gawking with greedy glee, first at their fancy new home (like many of the props, made of clear plastic and shiny silver), and then at the tacky-looking lumps of gold. It is Valhalla as Mahagonny.
But in ''Die Walkure,'' the emphasis shifts to the Brecht of ''Mother Courage'' - stark studies of tough, painfully real people on a largely bare stage. The basic iconography of this ''Ring,'' designed by Hans Schavernoch (sets) and Reinhard Heinrich (costumes), is a playing area that disappears far back in the Bayreuth Festspielhaus's shadowy depths, lasers representing natural forces (water, fire), steel-girder constructs, and the plastic-silver props.
But it is the acting that Mr. Kupfer has devised for his cast that has beenmost telling. Rarely has the relationship between Wotan and Fricka (a real marriage, not just a henpecked husband) or the sexuality of Siegmund and Sieglinde or the physical closeness of Wotan and Brunnhilde been so powerfully conveyed. Characters are always running frenetically about, and touching one another, where in other productions, a mere glance would suffice.
Musically, the performances have been distinguished by Mr. Barenboim's conducting. For years, he has sought, not always very successfully, to emulate the long line and flexible rubato of Wilhelm Furtwangler. With this ''Ring,'' he comes closer than ever before to making the comparison stick. The Bayreuth acoustics, which favor the voices, tend to thin out the brasses, and German winds (oboes especially) can sound sour to American ears. But the orchestral playing was still grand, even lush, and, especially in the final two acts of ''Die Walkure,'' Mr. Barenboim's interpretation cohered into a major statement of this music - slow, weighty yet impassioned.
None of the singers of principal roles have thus far shown a really major voice, but all the performers have succeeded as singing actors. The English-based John Tomlinson, in his first Wotan, came closest to making an important vocal statement. He was too loud and monochromatic at times, and he had trouble on top, but ultimately he delivered a richly sung, intensely acted performance. Deborah Polaski, a German-based American soprano making her Bayreuth debut as Brunnhilde, has a decent-sized, slightly acidic voice, but she carried the day with the coltish conviction of her acting.
In ''Das Rheingold,'' other characters include Graham Clark as a light-voiced but cleverly foppish Loge; Linda Finnie as a vocally thin but dramatically complex Fricka; Anne Gjevang as a sonorous Erda; Gunther von Kannen as a strong Alberich (the Nibelungs are laboratory technicians here), and Matthias Holle and Philip Kang as the Giants (each immobilized atop a 30-foot-high, mechanically operated puppet.
For ''Die Walkure,'' Peter Hofmann, in somewhat surer voice than he has been of late in New York, sang Siegmund roughly but handsomely, nicely matched in looks and talent by Nadine Secunde (another American) as Sieglinde. Mr. Holle was a solid Hunding, with Miss Finnie continuing as Fricka.

Stephen Curry on his pending free agency: "I want to be back here. I like playing here."
Next summer, Stephen Curry will be a free agent.
With 100 percent certainty, he will be a max player.
With 99.9 percent certainty, he is not leaving the Golden State Warriors, if you talk to other teams around the league.
Still, when he heads to his hometown of Charlotte and a few other spots, he's going to be asked about it. The topic came up on Tuesday, the first day of Warriors training camp practices, and Curry tried to shoot the idea of him leaving down. Here is the exchange, via Anthony Slater of the San Jose Mercury News.
Are you optimistic about your chances of coming back next offseason?
"Yes," Curry said.
Kevin faced this a ton last year in almost every city he went. Are you gonna talk to him at all about that, how he handled it?
"Maybe," Curry said. "But I'm not gonna let it distract me at all. I want to be back here. I like playing here. And that's it. The rest of it is about what we're gonna do this year."
There are a lot of teams hoarding cap space and planning to make a run at free agents next summer, but no teams are setting their sights on Curry as happened with Durant. Where there was a sense around the league Durant wanted to look at his options and could be swayed, that is not the sense with Curry. He's not going anywhere.
Maybe Curry plays the final couple years of his career back in his hometown of Charlotte, where his father played, but that's a long ways off. At midnight July 1 next summer the Warriors will offer Curry a five-year max contract, he will sign it, and nothing will change in the Bay Area.
LeBron James has Chris Bosh's back, says he was "surprised" by Heat's move
Chris Bosh's career with the Miami Heat is over due to recurring blood clots, according to team president Pat Riley. The Heat are ready to move on, although they don't have many good options.
Chris Bosh wants to prove he can still play, something he reiterated Tuesday in his latest video for The Uninterrupted. "I feel right now that I can still play at that level," Bosh said in the video.
When asked where he stood on this impasse, former Heat star and Bosh teammate LeBron James had Bosh's back. Here is his quote, via Ira Winderman of the Sun Sentinel.
"I stand behind my brother Chris," he said. "The most important thing is his health. Whatever decision he wants to do, I'm all for it. I support him in every way, shape and facet. It's a difficult situation for him. I was pretty surprised to hear that the team was just done with him, for them to come out and say that. But it's not like I've been there to know exactly what's gone on. I've only seen it from the exterior. I wish the best for him, he has my support."
Not sure what else LeBron would say, other than to have his friend's back.
The resolution to Bosh's situation is a long way off. The Heat will not play him, he will not retire, and no team is going to give up good players in a trade for a $75.8 million contract where the player may never set foot on the court again. There is going to be some kind of negotiated deal, likely with the league and players' union pitching in. Nobody is sure yet what that deal will look like, however.
Gregg Popovich calls national-anthem protests courageous, perfectly explains their importance
Ethan Miller/Getty Images
Many have slammed Colin Kaepernick – who has been kneeling for the national anthem in protest of police brutality of blacks in America – and the demonstrators he has inspired for disrespecting our military.
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, who served in the Air Force,won't let them get away with that.
Popovich, via Melissa Rohlin of the San Antonio Express-News:
"I absolutely understand why they're doing what they're doing, and I respect their courage for what they've done. The question is whether it will do any good or not because it seems that change really seems to happen through political pressure, no matter how you look at it. Whether it's Dr. [Martin Luther] King getting large groups together and boycotting buses, or what's happened in Carolina with the NBA and other organizations pulling events to make it known what's going on. But I think the important thing that Kaepernick and others have done is to keep it in the conversation. When's the last time you heard the name Michael Brown? With our 24/7 news, things seem to drift. We're all trying to just exist and survive.
"It's easier for white people because we haven't lived that experience. It's difficult for many white people to understand the day-to-day feeling that many black people have to deal with. It's not just a rogue policeman, or a policeman exerting too much force or power, when we know that most of the police are just trying to do their job, which is very difficult. I'd be scared to death if I was a policeman and I stopped a car. You just don't know what's going to happen. And part of that in our country is exacerbated by the preponderance of guns that other countries don't have to deal with. It gets very complicated.
"At this point, when somebody like Kaepernick brings attention to this, and others who have, it makes people have to face the issue because it's too easy to let it go because it's not their daily experience. If it's not your daily experience, you don't understand it. I didn't talk to my kids about how to act in front of a policeman when you get stopped. I didn't have to do that. All of my black friends have done that. There's something that's wrong about that, and we all know that. What's the solution? Nobody has figured it out. But for sure, the conversation has to stay fresh, it has to stay continuous, it has to be persistent, and we all have a responsibility to make sure that happens in our communities."
This hits the nail on the head.
Too many Americans are ignorant of what it's like to be black in this country. Kaepernick shined a giant spotlight on the issue, getting people talking and learning. Because of Kaepernick, LeBron James was asked about his anthem plans, and he shared his – too familiar to blacks – fear of his son getting pulled over. Because LeBron holds such a large platform, his concerns are being considered and analyzed by people who ignored this pressing issue.
Meanwhile, Kaepernick continues to be vilified by many, some of whom are using the cover of the military to denounce Kaepernick's cause. Popovich isn't here for that.
Courageous is the word I keep coming back to on Kaepernick. He is courageous for risking his reputation to promote a greater good.
And it's working. People are having this conversations. For the precise reason Popovich said, they must continue.
Klay Thompson clarifies 'I'm not sacrificing' remark on Warriors signing Kevin Durant
Maddie Meyer/Getty Images
After the Warriors signed Kevin Durant, Klay Thompson said:
"I feel kind of disrespected that people keep using the term sacrifice to describe me and describe us," Thompson told The Vertical. "We all want to see each other do well. But I'm not sacrificing [expletive], because my game isn't changing. I'm still going to try to get buckets, hit shots, come off screens. I want to win and have a fun time every game we play.
After that comment drew so much attention, Thompson is clarifying it.
Thompson, via Monte Poole of CSN Bay Area:
"When you acquire the talent we did this off season, " he began, "I don't think that's a sacrifice at all. I think that we are in an amazing position to do things that haven't been done here.
"So I'm not talking about points per game or minutes or shots, I'm really not sacrificing anything because you don't sacrifice when you acquire a player like Kevin Durant and get people like David West. I think we really got stronger, which is hard to imagine because we had such a great year last year.
"That's what I meant by that, though."
That's how I took his comment initially.
However, I'm still not sure Thompson fully understands what it'll require to play with Durant, Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, who is also accustomed to having the ball in his hands. Thompson might think taking fewer shots to win more is not sacrificing, but it's another thing to actually go through it.
Will Thompson feel the same way if he's shooting less and it's not immediately resulting in wins? Will he feel the same way if he's shooting less and that takes him out of rhythm?
It's helpful Thompson is entering the season with the right attitude, but that's only step one of many.

Skip to comments.Elections Are Not Democracy - A lesson from Egypt. (Andrew C. McCarthy)
Posted on 07/06/2013 3:58:03 PM PDT by neverdem
The democracy fetish would be worth having if it were about promoting real democracy. Instead, as illustrated by media coverage of the military coup that ousted Egypts popularly elected Muslim Brotherhood president, were still confusing democratic legitimacy with legitimate democracy.
The latter is real a culture of liberty that safeguards minority rights. Attaining it is a worthy aspiration, but one that requires years of patient, disciplined, and often unpopular work. The former is an illusion the pretense that if a Muslim country holds popular elections and elects totalitarian Islamists, voila, it has a democracy, and progressives the world over will regard it as such.
The confusion is nowhere better illustrated than in neoconservative commentary, where two most admirable premises the transcendent power of freedom and the imperative of confronting evil are seemingly at war with each other. Thus do the Wall Street Journals editors recount the rise and fall of the Muslim Brotherhoods Mohamed Morsi, elected Egypts president just a year ago, in the flush of Spring Fever:
His election was the best feature of his rule, which had descended into incompetence and creeping authoritarianism. Mr. Morsi won the election narrowly over a Mubarak-era political leftover, but he soon reinforced fears that the Brotherhood would use its new power to build an Islamist dictatorship. He tried to claim near-absolute powers by decree to force through a draft constitution written by Islamists and boycotted by everyone else.
No, not exactly.
Doesnt that sound a lot like the Democrats in the Wisconsin legislature? Remember: They lacked the votes to defeat Governor Scott Walkers collective-bargaining reform, so they tried to derail it by boycotting the democratic process an act of sabotage the Journals editors rightly rebuked. But theres a huge difference. Lacking Wisconsins democratic culture, Egypts ostensibly democratic process was a farce. Thats why Egypts obstructive democrats were heroes, while Wisconsins obstructive Democrats were rogues.
Democratic processes elections, referenda, constitution-drafting must be conditioned on a preexisting democratic culture. Otherwise, in a majority-Muslim country like Egypt, you end up giving totalitarianism the patina of democratic legitimacy. Quite predictably, when Morsi put the draft constitution to a countrywide democratic vote, the vast majority of Egyptians used their self-determining liberty to enshrine liberty-devouring sharia as their fundamental law.
The cognitive dissonance is dizzying. Yes, as the Journals editors note, Morsi was narrowly elected over Ahmed Shafiq, a Mubarak-era holdover. But why was that? It was because the forces of true, pluralistic democracy in Egypt are so fledgling and weak that they could never have defeated Islamic supremacists on their own. They had to turn to the old regime.
In the free elections leading up to Morsis election, there was no greater ignominy than being a Mubarak holdover. In those elections, real democrats and progressives were thrashed by Islamic supremacists. They lost 78 percent to 22 percent in a referendum on constitutional amendments that allowed the parliamentary and presidential elections to go forward. They were swamped again in the parliamentary elections that gave Islamic supremacists a three-to-one hammerlock on the legislature and thus on the constituent assembly that wrote the new constitution.
By the time the presidential election came round, authentic democrats, including members of persecuted religious minorities, had no choice but to pin their hopes on a Mubarak holdover just as this week, they had to rely on a coup by a military still threaded with Mubarak holdovers. It was the only realistic chance they had at a semblance of the rights that true democracy implies.
They lost anyway, even though the transitional military rulers, in a most undemocratic maneuver, tried to stack the deck in their favor by disqualifying on bogus grounds the more popular Muslim Brotherhood figure, Khairat al-Shater. The comparatively unknown Morsi was supremacist Islams Plan B. But we are talking about Egypt, where Western democracy is unabashedly condemned by such figures as Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the revered sharia jurist. In that Egypt the Egypt that is Plan B was good enough to win.
Morsis democratic logic was bulletproof: His actions were sovereign because he was elected by the people; the constituent assembly warranted sovereign protection because it had been appointed by a parliament elected by the people; and the old-regime judges should butt out because the draft constitution would be submitted to the sovereign people, to decide for themselves in an up-or-down vote. If you accept the Arab Spring fantasy that a liberty culture is bred by free elections, then Morsi was using his power to protect Egyptian democracy.
Of course, we should not accept the Arab Spring fantasy. But that does not make the Journals editors wrong just rash. They want what we should all want: a truly democratic Middle East. But lets not kid ourselves it is going to take a very long time to get there.
Core neoconservative principles are not really at odds. The power of freedom is transcendent. But real freedom cannot be rushed. Democratic culture has to take root, which is a long-term project in an anti-democratic society. As a foundational matter, there must be abiding societal commitments to freedom of conscience, the equal dignity of every person, economic liberty, the rule of law, and self-determination irrespective of sharia. Only then will liberty be promoted by free elections they are the end of the evolution, not the beginning.
We disfavor military coups because we are a liberty-loving people who defend civil rights. In Egypt, at this stage of its development, liberty lovers remain outnumbered. The massive protests against the Muslim Brotherhood administration are an encouraging sign that Egypts democrats are growing in strength, but they should not be mistaken for a wholesale rejection of sharia supremacism. Right now, the authentically democratic ranks remain modest; bear in mind that it was only seven months ago that the sharia constitution was overwhelmingly approved. At this point, a military coup and an enlightened military leadership that maintains order while giving civil society the time and space to evolve is the only chance freedom has. It is by no means certain that Egypts military is up to this daunting task, but it remains the best hope.
The neocons have also always been right that evil must be confronted and defeated. Yet that cannot happen unless evil is recognized as such. We must not rationalize Islamic supremacism and its sharia system as something they are not as virtuous, or at least moderate just because, given the choice, Islamic societies will vote for them. Egypts real democrats are trying to tell us that there are no moderate totalitarians. We would do well to listen.
Andrew C. McCarthy is a senior fellow at the National Review Institute. He is the author, most recently, of Spring Fever: The Illusion of Islamic Democracy.
Democracy without civil rights is two wolves and sheep deciding on what they are going to eat for dinner.
Remember - the Nazis also won the popular vote.
The quality of any democracy will never exceed the quality of the press. Egypt never had a chance.
That is an excellent point. I would submint the success of the US experiement can be largely attributed to the moral constraints of Christianity evident in many of our Founders and early leaders, and a determination to properly educate the masses during that same time. As both have declined, we lurch towards the tyranny and tribalism that you see in the rest of the world. America has in the past treasured liberty, which protects the most vulnerable minority - the individual. Does anyone really believe any religious or secular minority will be free in Egypt with islam in power, or influencing leaders in that country?
McCarthy is good columnist. This column was awful.
Simply put, the Egyptian people are expected to legitimize their tyrants with elections.
Sound familiar?
I couldn't agree more. It is our present culture that is our downfall...not the resulting leaders that are elected. Yuri Bezmanov pointed out that after America there is nowhere else to go.
McCarthy's points are sound, except for one fundamental point: the whole idea the limited government in which the rights of minorities are respected is coextensive with democracy in which popular sovereignty is the decisive feature.
The attempt to make democracy coextensive with limited government is an example of the No True Scotsman fallacy. Democracy is popular sovereignty, period.
One can have limited government in which minority rights are respected even under a theoretically absolute monarchy — Russians use phrases like "when we were free under the Tsars," thinking of the time after the abolition of serfdom, because unless one publicly attacked the Tsar (or the office of Tsar) or the Church, or had the misfortune to do so privately in the presence of one of the few hundred secret police deployed exclusively in Moscow and St. Petersburg, or committed crimes of the sort universally condemned by all governments and in all societies, basically the Tsarist government left you alone — and as we see in the contrast between pre- and post-17th Amendment America, popular sovereignty is actually a very poor tool for limiting the scope and reach of government.
Exporting "democracy" is a Wilsonian project, and thus part of the baleful legacy of Progressivism. America is the "shining city on the hill" (now tarnished by Progressivism) not because we are democratic, but because we are (were) the first and greatest exemplar of limited government. Admittedly, one needs some democratic elements in a constitution to have reliably limited government (the Christian Emperor who takes his coronation oath seriously and therefore provides limited, freedom-respecting government may go mad or be replaced by one who does not and reigns as a tyrant), but those democratic elements should not be seen as the primary source of limits on government.
They're missing a central point. What distinguishes a culture of liberty is not different human nature in such countries - human nature is a constant - it's the rule of law. What they're describing as 'legitimate democracy' is, in fact, the outcome of a constitutional republic in which the Constitution is the supreme law of the land and followed to the letter.
I accept the Constitution as written, in almost the same spirit as I accept the Bible as written. If God wanted to change the rules, we already know what He would do - He would send someone to add to His Word. If a democracy really wanted to change the rules, it would approve a constitutional amendment through the proper procedure.
The liberals who say we can safely change the interpretation of the Constitution to insert gay "marriage" or abortion in the penumbra are just as destructively wrong as the liberals who say we can safely change the interpretation of the Bible to insert similar sick positions. Such insertions destroy the document and remove all meaning.
Remember the warning of the great Jeanne Kirkpatrick on elections to be wary of: "One man, One vote, One time."
"Simply put, the Egyptian people are expected to legitimize their tyrants with elections."
Let's correct the above sentence:
"Simply put, the American people are expected to legitimize their tyrants with elections", which is what we did last election.
Gosh, that way of thinking sounds familiar....
Actually, elections ARE democracy - which is why our Founders abhorred it.
America's value is Freedom.
Democracy is merely the illegal immigrant that made it past the Founders' fence - The Constitution.
"Democracy without civil rights is two wolves and sheep deciding on what they are going to eat for dinner.
Remember - the Nazis also won the popular vote."
I like to point out to people that if we had a pure democracy, African-Americans and Jews would have been deported to Africa and Palestine respectively in the 1930's, because the majority of Americans thought that this was a good idea, according to polls taken at the time. Of course, had they had their way, I would be writing this in German now, if at all.
"I disagree with Andrew's take on real democracy. Marxism is real democracy. What he calls good democracy is actually a Republic."
Agreed-the US does not and never did have a democracy. This is a democratic republic, which, of course, is slipping away.
Dictators love democratic votes—as long as they are: One man, one vote, one time—and then they are in power for life.
"Remember - the Nazis also won the popular vote."
Actually, no, they didn't. They achieved only a plurality. Their greatest vote total, in the last election held under Nazi government, was about 44% in March of 1933.
Elections very much ARE democracy. It is just that Democracy is a means suitable to a Judeo Christian based culture or some very small tribal milieux It does not produce results that we would recognize as "democratic" in other environments.
That, of course, doesn't matter to the conscientious Liberal. For him in other cultures the Process is everything, the result is trivial.
This is the most chaotic, poorly organized and irrational article I have ever seen from Andrew McCarthy. I disagree with him on a lot of things, but I always thought he was capable of writing a coherent article.
This one made no sense.
"Simply put, the American people are expected to legitimize their tyrants with elections, which is what we did last election.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Didn't OBOZO tell his 'hand picked' government in Egypt they must listen to the 'will of the people'?
Does than mean that if we could 'muster up' 30 or 40 million people to PEACEFULLY march on 1600 PA AVE he would abdicate the throne?
Of course, the press being what it is, we would have to gather 100 million people to get the Liberal Media to acknowledge 'we' had 30 million present.
'Calypso Louie' gets maybe 300 thou and it is called a 'Million man march'..
The Moslem brotherhood's rise reminds me of the Bolsheviks in 1917 and the Ayatollah in 1979
In both cases, a dictator is overthrown by a rag-tag bunch of opposition forces, but then the most ruthless and fanatical party defeats the others because it has a strong core-message even if in raw numbers it is smaller than the others
I'm sorry, but by that standards (MSM in the USA), the USA doesn't stand a chance of keeping it's democratic values....
It would be more accurate to say the Nazis rose to power via democracy. In the Weimar Republic, with its multitude of parties, NO party ever won an actual majority.
The 44% won by the Nazis was the largest vote for any party in the history of the WR.
Look where the USA is and where it's going. We don't stand a chance.
It seems to me that hairs are being split here. The statement, "The 44% won by the Nazis was the largest vote for any party in the history of the WR," doesn't mean very much in view of the actual amount of time the Republic lasted ... by then just over 13 years. Hitler came to power through a plurality, as I said.
What is remarkable is how divided Germany was along political, social, and economical lines. Because someone actually put forth a concrete plan to the voters for the nation to go forward in a united fashion, as under the old monarchy, the plan itself was not examined too carefully. Suffice it to say that "hope and change" would have worked just fine as a slogan for the NSDAP platform of 1933.
Any kind of a plan in the midst of chaos looks pretty good. Unfortunately, there was no mechanism in place to allow the voters to fine tune the plan. And Hitler had no intention of letting anyone fine tune anything. In this the comparison to the events in Egypt is not far off the mark. Someone put forward a plan in the midst of chaos. It was a plan that, as also in 1930's Weimar Germany, tugged on certain of the nation's religio-historical heartstrings in order to deliver power to one party, which itself never had any intention of either sharing power with anyone else ever or of being servants of the people.
In a sense, Egypt really dodged a bullet, considering Morsi won a significant majority of votes. Unfortunately, there are more bullets coming.
I quite agree. In fact, it would make a fine slogan for any of the evil dictators of the past (or present).
Possibly I'm reading something into your comments that you're not actually implying, but often when people say the Nazis got "only" 44% of the vote, they are trying to imply 56% were opposed to the Nazis, which is what it would mean in USA with our basically two-party system.
The Nazis got 44%, while their allies the German National People's Party, the actual conservatives (a very different conservatism from the American version) got 8%. So they had a majority right there.
The Socialists and the Commies got 31%, and they were the only two parties drastically opposed to the Nazis.
The remaining 12% was split up among smaller parties, the Bavarian Party of which was closer to the Nazis than to their real opponents, and the Centre Party (Catholics) of whom were willing to cut a deal. Or thought they were.
You may be entirely correct to say I'm picking a nit, but I think it is a legitimate nit. My point is that Hitler and the Nazis came to power via democratic means, and got a considerably larger mandate for "hope and change" than any other party or leader had ever gotten in the 7 (more or less) free elections held by the Weimar Republic.
Hitler's power was democratically legitimate. Once he got that power, he promptly dispensed with the democracy, but his rise to power was quite democratic.
Well, I don't see that we have much to disagree about ... mostly just word choices. But, as a historical note, to be counted among the conservatives you say were allied to the Nazis (not quite) were many if not most of the people who later attempted to assassinate Hitler. Their attraction to the Nazis, if such it can be said to be, was chiefly based on their aversion to the communists rather than their affinity to the Nazis ... as time would show.
Quite true. However, it is also fair to point out that their "opposition" to Hitler didn't go beyond the grumbling stage until the Nazis weere clearly losing the war. IOW, they weren't opposed to the Nazis as much as to being invaded and occupied by commies.
Which is entirely understandable but doesn't make them paragons of morality either.

Getting whiter teeth is something that can certainly be attainable for most people. Sure, there are some people who have teeth that are simply beyond repair or beyond any sort of correction attempts, but most people can make a small, but seemingly noticeable change by just being more cautious about what is put into their mouths and how they take care of their mouths.
One thing that a person should be aware of is the food that he or she is eating and the effect that is has on the strength of his or her teeth. There are many things that people eat or drink quite frequently that can certainly lead to tooth decay or erosion. One of those things is soda. A person who has a lot of soda is definitely doing some pretty extensive damage to his or her teeth. Candy can also be very bad for an individual's teeth and the sugar can really break down all of the natural elements that the teeth have that make them strong and able to withstand things. An excessive amount of sugar on a routine basis serves to beak down the enamel and overall tooth strength.
A person should also be aware about keeping his or her mouth clean. Many times people will constantly put their fingers in their mouth and this can lead to a lot of bacteria getting into his or her mouth and subsequently adversely affecting his or her teeth.
One thing that a person can do to make sure that there is not a lot of bacteria in his or her mouth and also not a lot of weakening of the teeth occurring is to carry a toothbrush or mouth wash with him or her and after eating just do a quick brush or quick rinse with mouthwash just to remove any food remnants that might be left behind after a meal or a snack. If a person does not want to do this he or she can also just go into a bathroom and rinse his or her mouth out with water quickly.
A person who is diligent about oral health can most likely avoid any expensive teeth whitening process and at most just have to worry about doing a quick and cheap whitening process to just make his or her teeth a bit whiter as the teeth will already be mostly white and healthy, if a person makes sure that he or she is taking good care of them.

Bruins Insider Joe Haggerty is back with another week of NHL Power Rankings, where the Bruins hold on to their spot at the top -- and rightfully so.
Mueller aims to take advantage of opportunity in tonight's Bruins-Wings game
Mueller aims to take advantage of opportunity in tonight's Bruins-Wings game
BRIGHTON -- Tonight's Bruins-Red Wings game against the Red Wings should be a big chance for training-camp invite Peter Mueller as he readies to skate in a second straight exhibition game after a quiet night in the opener against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The former 22-goal scorer with the Coyotes felt he was "solid" and "held his own" while not getting any shots on neta againsy Columbus. The veteran winger feels like he's again starting to pick up the NHL pace after spending the last three years in Europe, and that's mandatory to start making plays.
"It was a good adjustment, but hopefully tonight I show a little more skill, a few more pucks to the net and create some more offense," said Mueller. "I would rather play in most of the [exhibition] games, to be honest with you, and to get in-game-like scenarios and prepare yourself for each and every game. In my position I'm happy that I'm playing tonight and hopefully I can keep trying to impress the people [making decisions]."
The 26-year-old former first-round pick will be in a favorable spot, skating in a possible third-line, right-wing audition with Ryan Spooner and Matt Beleskey. He'll also serve as another established player in a more veteran-laden lineup Wednesday night vs. the Winged Wheels at TD Garden. With Frankie Vatrano out for the next three months, these are the kind of chances Mueller needs to knock out of the park if he wants to fend off younger competition for one of those B's roster spots up front.
"It definitely favors the type of game I want to play," said Mueller, when asked about the chance to skate in a spot with Spooner and Beleskey that he would likely fill whre he to crack the NHL roster. "With two skill guys, hopefully we can create some chemistry and some offense early and obviously that helps with the flow of the game. Hopefully I can just showcase my skills and the work ethic that I'm trying to bring to the team. Overall, hopefully we have a good game tonight."
Sean Kuraly is also playing in his second straight exhibition, and will move over to the left wing skating with Austin Czarnik and left wing Zachary Senyshyn in what amounts to a kid line for the Bruins. One would expect the same goaltending rotation in this game, with Malcolm Subban getting the first two periods and Daniel Vladar getting the game's final 20 minutes. Here are the line combos and D-pairings according to the rushes during morning skate at Warrior Ice Arena:

Bruins' Zboril uses criticism and Twitter hate as motivation
Bruins' Zboril uses criticism and Twitter hate as motivation
BRIGHTON -- It's easy to see that Jakub Zboril , one of the Bruins' 2015 first-round pick, has come a long way in a year.
"I feel more comfortable," said Zboril. "After last year, when all of the people saying something about what they didn't like about me, it really pushed me forward. I told myself I wanted to be in better shape and so I worked really hard at it."
The 19-year-old wasn't in very good shape for last season's training camp after coming back from a knee injury, and that carried over into a junior season for the Saint John Sea Dogs (6 goals and 20 points in 50 games). That was a drop from his 13 goals and 33 points in 44 games prior to hearing his name called by the B's on draft night.
Zboril was back at peak effectiveness in the playoffs for the Sea Dogs with a couple of goals and 10 points in 17 games, but the chain of events caused some to wonder if the Bruins had drafted something of a bust.
It seems ludicrous, considering Zboril is a 19-year-old talented enough to be selected 13th overall in the entire NHL draft, and even more so now that he's showing much more in his second camp with Boston. It was some good and some bad for Zboril in his preseason debut against Columbus on Monday with a misplay leading to a goal against, but Zboril also kicked off the transition pass that helped the Bruins score their first goal of game.
"From last year I think he's made big strides," said assistant coach Jay Pandolfo. "He's a young kid that's only 19 years old, and he's going to keep getting better. So that's what you want. The structure in his game and the overall attitude [is better]. He was a little young last year. He's in better shape. He's done a lot of things that we got on him for last year, and he's taken it and listened, he's working hard. He's done a good job."
It's a long shot for Zboril to crack the B's roster this fall, so he's likely headed back to Saint John for another junior hockey season after watching fellow prospect Thomas Chabot get a lot of the No. 1 D-man playing time last season. He quickly shot down any possibilities of playing in Europe rather than going back to the Quebec Major Junior League, and said there could still be plenty to learn in his final junior season.
"Right now where I am, I can just learn from myself and pushing myself," said Zboril, of going back to junior. "What I can take from last year is that my role on the team changed, and I had to be more of a shutdown D. I had to show my defensive abilities, so I improved a lot from the year before. I think I can be more of a defensive defenseman too, so there's that."
Still, the so-so season last year had its impact in a positive fashion with Zboril really stepping up his game. But it's also had its drawbacks as the Czech-born defenseman was forced to deactivate his Twitter account because of the harsh criticism and messages he was getting from hockey fans. Disappointingly, Zboril said most of it was coming from people in Boston that claim to be Bruins fans, and that it was like "people just spitting on you."
"It was really pushing me down a lot," said Zboril. "After some games when you know you weren't playing really good, then you go on Twitter and you just see . . . people just spitting on you. So I had to delete it."
Zboril said he's much happier since getting off social media. But it's a shame that a bright young prospect's first impression of his future NHL city was the flaming dumpster of keyboard warriors that should forever be known as "Bruins Hockey Twitter."
