Skip to comments.Dem Drives Anti-Mormon Card
Posted on 01/11/2012 11:55:36 AM PST by americanophile
On MSNBC just now, South Carolina Democratic chair Dick Harpootlian painted Republican voters there as potentially refusing to vote for a Mormon, while trying to make it so. From memory: It does not bother me that he may believe the Garden of Eden is in Missouri, but it may bother them.
This is an ugly card and I hope...
(Excerpt) Read more at nationalreview.com ...
Judging by what's been here on FR for the last year or so, I'd say being a Mormon is at least 50% of the reason why freepers won't vote for him. After all, a cultist just cannot be a true conservative.
Mittens is unelectable. We all better pray he's not the nominee.
I don't like Romney because he's a liberal, period.
I have no idea about that but Romney is not really a modern Republican.
People on both sides of the aisle hate Mormons.
I dont care one way or the other, but no one should be surprised that the thing that people have been saying for 4 years would come at him IS ACTUALLY COMING AT HIM!
This is an ugly card and I hope...Am I supposed to support the weirdo because Democrats attack him on grounds of his faith? Or because Democrats imply that GOPers are bigots? I could not possibly care less. I oppose Willard Mitt Romney because of RomneyCare with its new rules, its new taxes, its assumptions about using state power to pursue progressive goals, its exchanges, and its mandates, a program that is functionally identical to ObamaCare. I will never support Romney; I will never vote for Romney. I will actively oppose him whether in the primaries or the general election.
"Dem Drives Anti-Mormon Card"
How does one drive a card?
If a decades-old DUI charge was enough to make evangelical voters refuse to go vote for G.W. Bush, Romney's faith will certainly cause the same effect. And, the libs have been counting on it.
KJL is a leading Mittbott. She is already setting up the excuses if Mitt doesn't do well in SC.
There appear to be too many who let Rush Limpbough do their thinking, for this revealing piece to get the airing it deserves.
It will definitely be an issue.
Begins hell ?
The anti Mormon bigots are in full hue and cry on Free Republic and have been for months.
Free Republic is probably where he came to learn about the anti Mormon bigotry.
it's embarassing
Pfffttt.... so it begins indeed. We're so-so worried about what Democrats will say. Oh my, we better run and hide, the big bad Democrats will do this, then they'll do that, oh no, we're so screwed...
What kind of gutless foxhole is this?
I really couldn't care less about the Mormonism thing. I like Glenn Beck, dislike Mitt Romney, and despise Harry Roid. I like John Huntsman Sr and Dislike John Huntsman Jr.
No, I just thought it was an interesting benchmark. If Romney is the nominee he will be mercilessly hammered for being a 'weirdo' on his faith by the diversity-loving Democrats. This is the firt open shot that I've seen.
A "weirdo", huh? Newbies using the Axelrod lexicon are not allowed an opinion. Back to DU, loser.
A weirdo, huh? Newbies using the Axelrod lexicon are not allowed an opinion. Back to DU, loser.Yes, weirdo, as Willard is not so much a man as a mannikin with a blow-dried bouffant-pompadour hair-cut circa 1958, but I'm OK with weird. What I steadfastly oppose is Willard's only accomplishment as an unremarkable single-term governor, RomneyCare, with all its new rules, new taxes, its assumptions about state power in the service of progressive goals, its exchanges, and its mandates. It is a program functionally identical to ObamaCare and Romney himself argues that he is "proud" of it. I will never support, nor will I vote for, Willard Romney.
You must not have been on FR for the last year or so.
Obviously he hasn't looked at the results of the first two primaries and the polls in other states.... It looks to me like the Republican voters are falling all over themselves to vote for a Mormon.
I've been here since 1996 ~ which is a long time by internet standards. It would appear you'd never noticed that phenomenon.
Name a couple of million first ~
I think they voted for him.
Because I have been here for years and know what it can be sans bigots
All of us know that MOST Mormons are converts these days and really have no feeling of ownership for Mormon history. That is a problem for them in that they appear to have little sympathy for those who claim their brush with Mormonism HURT THEM.
Just the way life is. BTW, few people ever imagine Mormons as victims.
"How does one drive a card?"
Turn the little wheel. (nyuck, nyuck, nyuck)
For the same reason they fell all over themselves to vote for an affirmative action liar with zero experience and a long list of socialist credentials.
Just wait until the MSM starts revealing the screwy tenets of Mormonism. Do Americans really want a president who believes he will be a god some day on his own planet? Might as well say he believes in the tooth fairy.
That is likely true, I don't zealously follow the threads and cant't classify the posters in such detail.
All you said might be true but it is still no excuse for the vicious attacks and slander.
I don't think the Dems want to get in a battle on Mormonism vs Black Liberation Theology.
Sorry, don't follow what you mean.
What's embarrassing are people who defend that cult.
Since the media is the propaganda armo fot he DNC, how would that 'mythical battle' be seen by the public?
Since the media is the propaganda arm of the DNC, how would that 'mythical battle' even be seen by the public? Magic thinking is a hallmark of MormonISM don'tchaknow.
A month or so ago, Joe Biden gave a speech at some university in PA (I don't remember which), but I guess some question about religion came up in the Q&A. Biden brought in that it was shameful that some people wouldn't vote for Romney because of his religion.
I just heard that little bite on a local (Boston) radio station during the hourly news break -- I guess they chose that one because of the MA connection.
It made me figure that the Dems would play the Mormon card -- not that Obama would do it himself, but I could see the lapdog networks all bringing out "documentaries" (read: "hit pieces") on Mormonism if Romney is the nominee -- all "in the public interest," of course.
I figure something like that is in the works and Biden made his remarks because he knows about it and never can quite keep his mouth shut. ;-)
Almost all of what is passed off as anti-Mormon bigotry on Free Republic is in reality nothing more than people providing annotated facts concerning Mormonism ... and the vast majority of that data is taken directly from LDS sources and historical records. Saints are offered an opportunity to rebut the replies and apologies are offered along with retractions if the information provided is not correct.
Alternatively, it is common to resort to ad hominem responses (i.e. attack an opponent's character rather than answer the contentions made) when unable to make a credible and reasoned response. Blanket use of the term anti-Mormon is one of the most blatant examples of that practice.
Oh, I dunno. Maybe the way one drives cattle, or maybe a golf ball, or maybe a nail or maybe recycled aluminum cans, or maybe ...
The anti Mormon bigots are in full hue and cry on Free Republic and have been for months.
- - - - - -
MONTHS??? We've been here for years posting the truth about Mormonism.
And as you so correctly state, Zak, it is not bigotry to post quotes from LDS sources and to post personal experiences. Sadly, the LDS (and some non-LDS defenders) name call rather than actually rebut what we are saying or prove that we are wrong.
So, bert, care to point out actual bigotry?
You're right. Joe's a blabber mouth, but somebody put that in there and he said it. I wonder if Mitt will have the guts to go to the mattresses with Axelrod?
A couple of SuperPacs in the right markets could revive the Rev. Wright fiasco. Axelrod is known for packaging black radicals for white voters. It will be interesting.
No, what is embarrassing is people who post these charges with no proof of incorrect information.
If you are offended, apparently, by the exposing of mormonISM to bad.
If you are offended, apparently, by the posting of lds leaders, direct links to mormon sites, to bad so sad - rebut the information.
Either back up your claims, so stop them.
This fake outrage is just boring.
NRO's love affair with Mitt, first began in '07 when he made contributions to NRO affiliated entities, continues. Ho Hum, Klo. He really isn't going to make you a plural wife.
Romney is not a conservative - period.
However, according to polling 94% of lds support him, you must like being part of that majority voting block going for a non conservative while claiming it is all about his mormonISM. Oh, wait it is for you isn't it.
You nailed it!
If their critical thinking bone is fractured; how on EARTH could they POSSIBLY have enough neurons to string together to be a non-Liberal?
We getting air time, Baby!
I don't think anyone put it in. After I heard the bit on the radio, I googled and found it was in the Q&A after the speech. I couldn't find much, but it sounded as if it wasn't directly related to the question -- just Joe "I know something you don't know!" Biden.
Oh I HOPE so!
It means I'm doing my job well; and will soon get anOTHER raise!!

Henrico Police wins state, national awards
The Henrico County Division of Police recently won first place for the seventh consecutive year in the 2011 Virginia Association of Chiefs of Police Law Enforcement Challenge Awards as the agency with the best traffic safety programs in its size statewide.
Henrico's division included agencies with 451 to 700 officers. The division also won first place in the International Association of Chiefs of Police's national competition among agencies with 501 to 1,000 officers – the first time it had won at the national level.
The division's Traffic Safety Unit and Chief Douglas A. Middleton will receive the awards at the annual VACP and IACP Conferences that will be held later this year.
"This recognition is a result of a total team effort to enhance traffic safety initiatives throughout the county," Middleton said. "This exceptional police work was led by the Traffic Safety Unit but involved all Henrico Police Division, sworn, patrol officers. The men and women who contributed to this effort deserve all of the recognition for these distinguished awards."
The Law Enforcement Challenge competition strengthens and supports nationwide traffic safety, education, and enforcement. The competition targets three major traffic safety priorities: occupant protection impaired driving, and speeding.
The IACP and VACP require agencies to provide a detailed report, documenting their agencies efforts and effectiveness for the entire previous year in the following areas: officer training, public information and education, incentives and recognition, policy and guidelines, and enforcement efforts to reduce crashes and injuries.

Milwaukee Irish Arts shines light on shameful past with 'Eclipsed'
In February, Ireland finally came clean regarding some very dirty laundry, admitting its long-standing role in aiding and abetting the existence of the notorious Magdalene laundries.
Ostensibly asylums for the reform of "fallen" women, these facilities enabled the Catholic Church to turn a tidy profit by using women - petty criminals, unwed mothers or simply young women deemed overly flirtatious or beautiful, in a country that has long associated women with sex and sex with sin - as a slave labor pool. The last one wasn't closed until 1996. »Read Full Article(4)

Academic Flexibility:
They take care of it for you. You just have to show up.
Online Courses:
It's okay. I could take it or leave it.
Career Services:
Career services does a great job helping people find jobs. The only downfall is that the credits can be hard to transfer.
Overall Experience:
Class sizes are great. A lot of one on one attention. Professors seem to want to see people succeed.
Overall Experience:
I have heard that some places don't accepted Career Quest as a private college and don't accept the degree.
Academic Experience:
Everything seems to be okay.
Overall Experience:
It can be hard to transfer credits to another school because it is an accelerated program.
Academic Experience:
I'm rating this part of Career Quest an A grade because they are really good with their students about sticking on topics for each students major. Career Quest programs are expensive, but it's nothing I wasn't expecting at the time. Career Quest has neat classes and educational study groups and on campus tutors available which is great! There aren't a lot of facilities there because it is a small building college. But it's much better than running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Therefore, it is a better school than a university or community college, in my opinion. I feel like one big family there. I have yet to start classes, but from what I hear about my Informational Technology program, it is fun, educational, on topic and it's not too competitive right now. I love knowing that I get to work in an internship and externship one day after I complete my certificate for the IT program.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
I rate Career Quest's tuition and financial aid process a B- because of the fact that my specific program for IT is very, very expensive. I understand that this is a Vocational school and my program is taught within a 7-9 month period, but does the program itself have to be so much money? I'm in the process of looking for better employment just to pay off their tuition and fees. I am awarded the grant money of $5,645,00 but I know that this money isn't enough. Therefore, it's been a heartache trying to figure out other ways of payment. I'll keep trying no matter what, because I understand that going to school isn't free or easy. Although their career services and financial aid groups are there to help, I still think they should lower the interest rates of paying while in school to a much lower rate to help me financially in general. The education that I will be getting is going to be worth the overall payments I'll be making. This school isn't that bad afterall. It's expensive, but worth the short period of time of being in their school to get a degree or certificate in my future career.
Campus Resources:
I rate the computer network at my school and computer labs on campus a B+ because it's alright. I haven't used much of their computer labs at all, but I have received pretty fair Wi-Fi on my laptop and cell phone. From what I hear from other students and staff members, the internet can be slow at times, but that is everywhere now-a-days. Career Quest labs look pretty simple and small but probably are very useful. I'm not a picky person, so this school is doing okay with their printing, computer labs, network reliability and wireless access. I believe that all computers and systems will have malfunctions at some point in time, so it's no big deal to me.
Campus Resources:
I gave an A- grade because this school is better than most schools. I really enjoyed my first tour of the building itself. I like how friendly, cooperative, and educated the staff and teachers are. The Financial aid center and Career Services is very helpful as well and I would recommend people to them anytime because they stick with what they are trying to assist you with and they give more 1-on-1 to each client. Career Quest classrooms are perfect size. I like Career Quest better than a Community College or University due to the fact that they are small, more convenient and organized. I really like the fact that Career Quest is a Trade school because they offer quicker programs than other Trade schools. Career Quest has little meetings for activities and I believe that's a good way to create a fun, exciting and close community for the people going there. Overall, the facilities on campus are not that bad, but I haven't seen if there is a gym that each student can have access to or not. If there is a gym at Career Quest, that is pretty cool and useful for me.
Campus Resources:
No student center, no real library. Just a small area for study that is not very quiet. There is a fairly active student council, but Admin is trying their best to kill that too.
Academic Experience:
The only positive was the Instructor. He did his best to teach us what we needed to enter or advance ourselves. Many of the schools policies/Administrators made this very difficult though. We didn't register for classes as we had no choice in what we were taking and when. You're schedule is dictated to you. All you can do is choose, morning, afternoon or evening. And you better not ever miss a class.
Academic Experience:
We were not given/offered any internships. The curriculum is designed to be accelerated; knew that going in. So fast in fact, we seldom had our assignments returned if we received them at all. Excellent instructor, but with the demands placed on him and the schools lack of support, that's no surprise.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
Far too expensive. Why did I receive a bill for housing??? There's a legal term for this...Anyone???
Tuition & Financial Aid:
Far too expensive for what I got. This isn't an IVY league school. 29K for what? A paper that employers won't consider because you hammer people through so fast, retained learning is minimal.
Campus Resources:
Stale vending machine products. Poor parking and not enough bathroom facilities.
Overall Experience:
Love It There – I am in my first week and feel so important. Look forward to the rest of the journey with my teachers anc classmates.
Career Services:
How Great Are They? We have a career adviser that works with you from your first day till you graduate and beyond. You establish a personal relationship and work together to find the best career, best employment opportunities and any additional schooling or help you made need post graduate.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
Career Quest Learning Center – I would have liked more options toward paying school. The cost for 9 months is $29,000. I can get that for a cheaper deal at another school for more education. However, even with the scholarships and loans I still owe $13000. I would have liked a scholarship to help pay for the fact that my husband and I are both out of work even though he's currently enrolled at Davenport University but we also have two children and are actively seeking employment.

Jose Pedraza Easily Knocks Out Rodriguez in Cidra
By "Mr. Boxing" Giancarlo Oquendo, @MRBOXING1
Puerto Rican prospect Jose "Sniper" Pedraza (15-0, 10KO's) easily dispatched experienced Mexican boxer Alejandro "Soma" Rodriguez (19-13, 11KO's) by technical knockout in the third round. During the third round action, Pedraza connected to Rodriguez's body with a great left hook that sent him to the canvas and he could not recover by the count of ten. With this victory Pedraza retained his USBA super featherweight and WBC youth super featherweight titles. This bout was the featured attraction of a card that was held at the Coliseum Jesus Freire in Cidra, Puerto Rico.

Welcome to the University of Auckland Debating Society
The University of Auckland Debating Society was established in 1887 and is the oldest club on campus. It's also one of the largest; in 2016, we have over 700 members.
The University of Auckland Debating Society is New Zealand's most sucessful campus. We were only 1 or 3 universities to break 2 teams at Worlds in 2015, we won Joynt Scroll and Thropy in 2015 and we were in the final of Easters and Australs in 2015. In 2016 Auckland 1 (James Penn and James Rankin) won Easters (the New Zealand Impromptu Debating Championships) and were in the final of Thropy. Auckland is one of the top ten debating universities in the world alongside the likes of Cambridge, Harvard, and Oxford and is also New Zealand's only A tier world ranked university.

Rated 4 out of 5 by 199 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by 6Chris7 Wonderful Stay The Westin Europa & Regina is the perfect hotel for a great experience in Venice. Beautiful hotel, perfect location and amazing service! September 19, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5 by Chock Do Not Ask For Coffee 22 Euros for two cups of coffee. August 10, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by JacquelineNY Not worth it... This hotel has been a stay for me for many years. Unfortunately, they are slipping. They are most concerned with "Green Choice" which in translation means---You will have a dirty room for your entire stay, but feel good about the environment. I did not request "Green Choice" but they said I did and so when I continuously asked for a room clean, they said "Sure" and never did it, then blamed me for requesting a "Green Choice". There is no early check in, there are lines to check in, and when you are unhappy with the stay or complain, they offer you a drink at the bar to make it alright, but in the end, unfortunately, you spend a lot of money for a lack of air conditioning in summer and a dirty room and long lines. When you arrive from the airport in Venice after a long trip, you want to go to your room--and if it is 2pm I don't think it is unreasonable since you are paying upward of 500 USD a night, I think cleaning a garbage pail in your room at least one time and making a bed are very small things to ask...Green Choice or not. NOT worth your money. NOT up to par of an SPG rating. PS--I voiced my concerns to management, but was blamed for choosing "Green Choice" you're fighting a no-win circular battle here. NOT WORTH IT for the money you spend...trust me. August 4, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5 by SPGTraveler2001 Bad staff experience - disappointed with SPG The hotel had made a mistake with our booking and wanted to double charge us upon check in. I had to escalate the issue through my Platinum Hot-line. Given that we were traveling internationally this became a major haste and the hotel was unwilling to help... After we resolved the booking issue through SPG customer service - the hotel wouldn't let us check into our rooms until 5pm dispute being guaranteed for 3pm. This was extremely disappointing after our long int. travel and unacceptable for the SPG global brand. August 1, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5 by sdtraveler50 Not worth the price I stayed 3 nights in Venice before my cruise and was not impressed with the hotel. The location was great. The rooms were nice. The hotel interior was very nice. This trip was to celebrate my 50th birthday and I have gold status so I noted both in my reservation. I also requested early check in since my flight got in at 11am. There was no early check in available and the room was still not ready at 2:30 when we tried again and then again at 3pm when I was told "gold members have late checkout so sometimes the room isn't ready by 3pm" Well what about this gold member that wants at least a normal check in time? 5 minutes later they found me in the lobby waiting and I was told there was a mistake and my room was finally ready. Well no recognition for gold, no recognition for 50th birthday, just a room that was late in getting ready and even then was not in the twin bed configuration that I had requested (again in the reservation). Upon final checkout when most hotels ask "how was your stay" all I got was "is this make a green choice" for only one day? Not what I expect (and get) at the rest of the Westin's and Sheraton's I stay at. July 6, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5 by MattNMel This hotel is perfect! The Europa & Regina is absolutely amazing! My fiancé and I were treated like royalty from the moment we walked in, and the entire staff was incredible! The hotel is in the perfect location in Venice, with everything seemingly within a 15 minute walk. I would recommend this hotel to anyone! June 7, 2016
Rated 2 out of 5 by WILL1018 Anniversary Trip 19 family members After much planning, we decided to celebrate our anniversary in Venice. We brought our children, their spouses, grandchildren, and in laws. (19 total) I spent time speaking to staff at restaurant at hotel to make sure everything was right. They managed to ruin a very special moment in our lives. The quality of food, and the lack of any commitment by the staff left us very disappointed. No one had dinner and there was hair found in the food. I would like to congradulate the Restaurant La Cusina at the Westin in Venice for screwing up in one hour what took us 4 months to plan. June 4, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5 by Gurnea15 Hotel doesn't live up to the price The lady at the front desk and the bar were rude, the room was small, the TV didn't work, and there were open drinks in the mini fridge. Some of the other staff made up for the flaws with their kindness and the hotel from the lobby looked amazing. April 26, 2016

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
PLx Pharma received a $730,000 SBIR grant from the U.S. Army. The money will support the continued development of PL 4500, a molecular complex of indomethacin and phosphatidylcholine that is being developed as a GI-safer anti-inflammatory and analgesic in both oral and IV formulations.
Under this phase 2 award, PLx will collaborate with the University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston and the University of Texas Medical Branch, Galveston to capitalize on unique and established animal models to expand on PL 4500's potential to safely treat inflammation and pain due to surgery or trauma. The partners will also carry out formulation optimization and manufacturing process-development activities to support commercial development.
During the first phase of the program, PL 4500 was shown in in vivo and in vitro models to provide a longer period of analgesia with less GI toxicity than traditional indomethacin at standard doses while providing an equivalent degree of anti-inflammatory and analgesic efficacy, according to PLx Pharma.

Review: 'New Girl' - 'Injured': Long night's journey into day
A review of tonight's "New Girl" coming up just as soon as I Fredo kiss you again...
Often, but not always, when networks make episodes of shows available to critics in advance, they tend to be stronger-than-average installments, or at least representative installments. "New Girl" has followed an odd pattern where most of the post-pilot episodes FOX has shown critics in advance have been among my least favorite of the season, like "Naked." (Then again, some of those episodes have been among other people's favorites; comedy, as always, is subjective.)
Early on, I worried that "Injured" was going to continue that pattern for me. It started off clumsily with several bits of Jess slapstick that didn't really work (like trying to put the baby model back together) and a Winston storyline that felt like something the writers originally intended for Nick, then handed it down when they needed to give Lamorne Morris something to do this week. We also got one of the more cringe-inducing cutaway gags of the series with Winston telling jokes at a funeral(*), and even Nick's frustration with Jess wasn't playing in particularly interesting fashion.
(*) Though I typically haven't liked most of the cutaways this show does. The style of humor in those bits inevitably feels more frantic, the reality more exaggerated, than anything that happens in the regular narrative. It's easily the element I'd miss least if it got dropped tomorrow.
And then we jumped forward in time after last call at the bar, when everyone was drunk, Winston was doing an Aaron Neville impression, Cece was rapping, Nick was lamenting the half a zombie novel he wrote, and everything suddenly fell into place. From that point on, the jokes weren't being pushed quite as hard(**), and the characters just hung out and dealt with Nick's potential medical crisis in ways that were sincere at some points, funny at others, and mainly just likable.
(**) Though Schmidt saying that Nick could stand to lose 5 to 7 pounds while they were on the beach seemed like a completely mis-timed joke. Even a drunk Schmidt wouldn't make that observation at that moment, I don't think. Compare that to Schmidt offering to loan him one of his many wallet chains, where a joke at the end of a serious moment didn't feel out of place or out of character.
"New Girl" as a whole still has some rough edges to smooth out, but the show has done a good job of making me enjoy spending time with these five people, in smaller groups or all together, and their long night at the bar and on the beach felt like a good time to low-key it and just observe how everyone would react to a situation that seemed scary and ultimately turned out not to be. It's not the kind of episode they can do on a regular basis, but as a change of pace — and a way to provide depth to relationships to help support the humor in more traditional episodes — it was ultimately very welcome.
What did everybody else think?

27 Oct 2010 - As a followup to reader comment, fixed broken link to the download file (see Download) and added entry for SAX tutorial ( see Resources).
This is the second part of this series on how to automate e-zine publishing using JavaMail and XSLT. In Part 1, you learned how to convert DocBook XML documents to a text format that satisfies the stringent requirements of e-mail publishing. This required three steps:
- Using XSLT to convert DocBook in an intermediate text markup language
- Using a custom-made Java application to reformat the text markup language into plain text
- Cleaning up the text with the help of various SAX filters
One of the main benefits of this approach is that it breaks down a complex process in a number of discrete steps. The XSLT style sheet buys you tremendous flexibility: If you ever decide to publish documents written to a vocabulary other than DocBook, only the style sheet must change. Furthermore, the SAX filters help to modularize the conversion component, which makes it more readable and easier to maintain.
In Part 2, I describe how to wrap this process with JavaMail, the standard Java language e-mail API, to send the e-zine over the wire. In the process, I'll revisit SAX event handling. This conclusion illustrates how to wrap XSLT processing in a larger application. Figure 1 from Part 1 illustrates how the pieces all fit together.
Figure 1. How the components of the solution interact
JavaMail 101
Before going any further, let's review JavaMail. If you are already familiar with JavaMail, you may want to skip to the next section.
E-mail remains one of the most popular Internet applications. Although we tend to associate e-mail with e-mail clients such as Eudora, Outlook, or Netscape, many applications can send or retrieve e-mails automatically. Just remember the last time you bought a product online. Chances are that within minutes of completing the order you received a confirmation e-mail. It was sent automatically by the electronic shop. No human was involved, and it did not required an e-mail client such as Eudora.
Recognizing that Java applications often need to send or receive e-mail, Sun developed JavaMail as a standard API for e-mail services. Through JavaMail, Java applications can send e-mails or check a mailbox directly (without going through an e-mail client). Note that JavaMail is a separate download from the Sun JDK (see Resources).
The SendMessage.java listing in Listing 1 is
a simple application to illustrate JavaMail. Notice that it imports the
javax.mail and
javax.mail.internet packages.
To send an e-mail, the first step is to request a
Session object
takes a
Properties object that must contain at least the
property. This property must point to your SMTP host or nothing will work
(see the sidebar SMTP host).
Next it creates a
Message and sets its various properties,
including the addresses of sender and recipients (note that there may be
more than one recipient but there is only one sender), subject, date, and the body of the message.
The last step is to use
Transport.send() to send the message
over the wire. SendMessage.java creates only simple
text e-mails. In the next sections, I explain how to create so-called multipart
Listing 1. SendMessage.java
package com.psol.xslist; import java.util.*; import javax.mail.*; import javax.mail.internet.*; public class SendMessage { public static final void main(String[] args) { try { if(args.length < 5) { System.out.println("java com.psol.xslist.SendMessage" + " email@example.com email@example.com mailhost.domain.com" + " subject \"mail content\""); return; } Properties props = System.getProperties(); props.put("mail.smtp.host",args[2]); Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props); Message message = new MimeMessage(session); InternetAddress from = new InternetAddress(args[0]); InternetAddress to[] = InternetAddress.parse(args[1]); message.setFrom(from); message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO,to); message.setSubject(args[3]); message.setSentDate(new Date()); message.setText(args[4]); Transport.send(message); } catch(MessagingException e) { System.err.println(e.getMessage()); } } }
Multipart e-mails and configuration files
Armed with JavaMail and the text formatter introduced in Part 1, you are ready to send the e-zine. You could update
setText() in SendMessage.java to use the result of the text
transformation introduced in Part 1, however you can do better. Specifically you can
multipart/alternative e-mails (see the sidebar multipart/alternative).
I choose to store the e-mail information in an XML configuration file
such as
config.xml in Listing 2. The structure
of this file is as follows:
cfg:emailis the root of the configuration file. It has one attribute,
smtp, with the SMTP host. I have marked the attribute in bold in the listing because you must change this parameter before testing (recall the sidebar SMTP host).
cfg:headercontains the sender's and recipient's addresses, as well as the e-mail subject as attributes (respectively,
subject). For testing, make sure to use your own e-mail address.
cfg:bodypoints to the source XML document in its
cfg:part, which are enclosed in
cfg:body, control how to create the various body parts.
cfg:textuses the text conversion introduced in Part 1 to create a text body part whereas
cfg:bodyapplies a simple XSLT style sheet to create the HTML version of the body.
All these elements are in the
namespace. Remember that although an XML namespace is in the form of a
URL, it is used only as an identifier. In other words, if you point your
browser at that namespace, you won't find any Web site.
Finally, note that the configuration file contains the address of only one recipient. That is because most people distribute mailing lists through special servers, such as Topica or SparkLIST (see Resources), which manage subscription and unsubscription. Sending the e-zine to the mailing-list server will dispatch it to all subscribers.
Be sure to change the
from, and
to attributes
to your own values before trying this sample code.
Listing 2. config.xml for a hypothetical mailing
<?xml version="1.0"?> <cfg:email xmlns:cfg="http://www.psol.com/xns/xslist/config" smtp="mailandnews.com"> <cfg:header from="email@example.com" to="email@example.com" subject="XSL -- First Step in Learning XML"/> <cfg:body source="article.xml"> <cfg:text styleSheet="text.xsl" contentType="text/plain"/> <cfg:part styleSheet="html.xsl" contentType="text/html"/> </cfg:body> </cfg:email>
Reading the configuration file
Processing the configuration file is done by ConfigHandler.java
in Listing 3. It inherits from a SAX
DefaultHandler and implements
the interface with the parser. As promised in Part 1, this section reviews SAX event handling. Feel free to
skip over this review if you are familiar with SAX event handling.
SAX is an event-based API, meaning that the parser sends events -- similar to AWT events -- to your application as it progresses through the XML file. Your application can either ignore events or process them. Most event handlers process at least the following events:
startElement()which the parser calls when it reads a start tag
endElement()which the parser calls when it hits a end tag
characters()which the parser calls when it encounters character data. ConfigHandler.java is remarkable in that it ignores
SAX defines many other events, but those are the main ones. See Resources for more details on other SAX events.
To understand SAX, you must remember that an XML document is a hierarchy
of elements. In other words, it's a tree. The parser reads the tree and
describes it, through events, to your application. By calling
the parser notifies the application that it has found a new branch.
marks the end of the current branch.
The difficulty in writing SAX handlers is that the code to process a
specific element (say
cfg:body) is split over several events (such
startElement() and
Furthermore the parser provides no contextual information, so it is
up to the application to match the events with each other. ConfigHandler.java uses the
state variable to track what has been read in the configuration.
As it progresses through the document, ConfigHandler.java builds a multipart
Message and creates the different versions of the messages (text and HTML) by applying the appropriate style sheet. At the end the document, ConfigHandler.java sends
the message.
This mechanism proves very flexible because you can create as many versions of the body as you want by using different style sheets. If you want a third version, say in WML (Wireless Markup Language), you only need to provide one extra style sheet and adapt the configuration file accordingly.
Putting it all together
config.xml (in Listing 2) references the
html.xsl style sheet shown in Listing 4. The style sheet
html.xsl is a classic example of a style sheet that converts article.xml, introduced in Part 1, to HTML.
Listing 4. html.xsl converts article.xml (from Part 1 of this series) to HTML
<?xml version="1.0"?> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0"> <xsl:output method="html"/> <xsl:template match="/">   <title><xsl:value-of select="article/articleinfo/title"/></title>  <xsl:apply-templates/>  </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="article">  <xsl:apply-templates/>  </xsl:template> <xsl:template match="articleinfo/title">

The last missing piece is the
main() method. It resides in
Listing 5 in XslList.java. Because ConfigHandler.java is responsible for creating and sending the e-mail, the
main() is very simple: It creates a SAX parser, registers ConfigHandler.java as the event handler, and launches parsing by calling
Of course, many things happen as the parser decodes the document. All
along, the parser sends events to ConfigHandler.java, where all the heavy-duty processing (such as creating and sending messages) takes place. When
parse() returns, two style sheets have been
applied and an e-mail has been sent!
Listing 5. XslList.java
package com.psol.xslist; import java.io.*; import org.xml.sax.*; import org.xml.sax.helpers.*; public class XsList { protected static final String PARSER_NAME = "org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser"; public static void main(String[] args) { try { if(args.length < 1) { System.out.println("java com.psol.xslist.XsList input.xml"); return; } ConfigHandler configHandler = new ConfigHandler(); XMLReader parser = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader(PARSER_NAME); parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces", true); parser.setContentHandler(configHandler); parser.parse(args[0]); } catch(IOException e) { System.err.println(e.getMessage()); } catch(SAXException e) { System.err.println(e.getMessage()); } } }
Your turn now
As I prepared this article, my goal was threefold. I wanted to build an XML application with no browser. I believe using XML in a browser makes about as much sense as using Java for applets. I hope this article makes the point strongly that useful XML doesn't need a browser.
I also wanted to demonstrate how the combination of XSLT and SAX event handling is greater than the sum of its parts. In Part 1, you saw how XSLT is used to simplify the markup that is being fed to the SAX handler.
Finally, because I know most programmers learn more by studying examples, I wanted to show you a complete application. Incidentally, if you like this approach, you'll love my book Applied XML Solutions (see Resources) which packs in eight more examples.
Now it's your turn. This application serves a specific niche, e-zine publishing, but the XML techniques it demonstrates (XSLT, DocBook, SAX filters, JavaMail and more) are not specific to e-zine publishing. Study the code and see how it can help in your own niche.

Herbatint works on my gray
Posted by Reviewer2318202 on Feb 22, 2010
I love this product - color without all the chemicals. Just one bottle, so there's no mixing, and you can save what you don't use for next time. The product description says it doesn't work on gray, but it works on mine. It even gives a lighter sheen to my dark-blond hair. I have curly hair that doesn't need frequent washing, and so far one application to the roots has lasted more than two weeks.
good result

For years, local youth have been bowling at Lake Geneva Lanes.
This year, finally, those in high school can call themselves Badgers, and their freshly-minted team qualified for state in its inaugural season.
On March 2 and 3 at the Super Bowl in Appleton, Badger took 30th of 37 teams in the state competition and featured two bowlers at the individual meet.
Badger head coach Tom Yanke, who has been involved with Lake Geneva Youth Bowling for 17 years, is thankful to have a Badger High School bowling team.
"After years of working with the administration, we finally got approval," he said. "It's an exciting thing for Badger High School. Not everyone can play football or baseball, but everyone can bowl."
In their first year, the boys and girls squads each had six bowlers. Coaches are all volunteers, and parents help transport the athletes to meets and keep stats.
Yanke works at Lake Geneva Lanes, which is the home court for the Badgers. They play in the nine-team Greater Janesville Area district which includes Janesville Parker, Janesville Craig, Beloit Turner, Beloit Memorial, Clinton, Milton, Delavan and Monroe.
The Badger boys finished the season 9-3 in a three-way tie for first with Parker and Craig. The top three teams from each district advance to state. Badger won its conference semifinal match to tie Parker and Craig.
Teams bowl in a Baker format, where each team member bowls only two frames per game. One bowler will bowl the first and sixth frames, then the next will bowl the second and seventh, etc.
Yanke said the boys team was talented but noted the season wouldn't have been possible without the help of volunteers.
"I've got good bowlers, and none of it would work without the volunteers," Yanke said. "Karen Klabunde helps me out. Terry Guske transported the kids to meets. Another parent was a scorekeeper. Bowling is finally being recognized as a sport instead of a recreational hobby."
Zach Belanus and John Guske each qualified for the March 2 individual state tournament. The top six bowlers from each district qualify for the tournament. John Guske advanced to the quarterfinals and finished 31st overall with a 210 average in six games. Belanus placed 44th thanks to a 213 average in three games.
"Both have been bowling for a long time," Yanke said. "Some people have a natural ability. Both bowl pro-style and have the proper lift and proper release."
At the team state meet, Yanke said his team, which included Tyler Horch, Al Crisman and Adam Wielondek, was a bit awe-struck by the loud atmosphere. In 15 games at state, the boys averaged a 192 as a team. Badger bowled one game per lane, then moved 16 lanes over for the next game.
"I was pretty impressed by the boys," Yanke said. "They were a little intimidated, but they settled in. There were 48 lanes and it was a stadium-style atmosphere. It was louder than a football game because it was indoors. But their focus was unbelievable, and they worked really well together."
A different concept
While the Professional Bowling Association tournaments on television deal with one bowler's score in a series, the strategy with high school bowling is all about team.
In the unique Baker format, which is common in collegiate bowling, more than one bowler accounts for the team score each game. For example, a bowler will bowl the first and fifth frames then switch frames at the start of the next game. In the regular season meets, the team who wins the best of seven games wins the match.
"It's an exciting format," Yanke said. "It's a good team atmosphere. It's not your regular bowling, and it deals with a whole different concept."
Fill percentage stats are kept, which combine a bowler's percentage of strikes with his or her percentage of spares. All five bowlers account for the team's total score per game.
Yanke said the team practices once a week during the season, which runs from November through February. He said most of the team members have been bowling through the city's youth program, some as young as 4 years old with bumper bowling. Yanke said kids can bowl in the youth league until the age of 19.
Yanke had to deal with some adversity this season. Both the boys and girls squads ended up with six athletes after several kids became academically ineligible. The girls started with 15, and the boys began with 10.
He hopes interest can pick up next year.
"Once the word gets out, there will be more interest," Yanke said. "It's an exciting program. I think it's going to do well. Bowling is something you can do with no age restrictions or physical limitations."

TRENTON - Barbara Buono can't catch a break.
The Democratic gubernatorial candidate and state senator from Middlesex County had two opportunities last week to battle Republican Gov. Christie in front of New Jersey voters and liberal campaign donors nationwide.
But Democratic legislative leaders sidestepped both fights, leaving Buono outside the ring.
First, the $33 billion budget was negotiated by Democratic leaders and Christie's team in advance, behind closed doors, and was approved relatively quietly. In past years, Democrats have had protracted high-profile budget confrontations that they have used to slam Christie as a coldhearted conservative.
After that fizzled, Buono asked for a vote to override Christie's veto of a same-sex marriage bill in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court decision on gay marriage. But Democratic Senate President Stephen Sweeney decided against an override vote.
