Manufacturing compensation costs in U.S. and abroad, 2006
February 12, 2008
In the United States, hourly compensation costs for all employees in manufacturing were $29.60 in 2006, 24 percent higher than the level of production worker compensation costs, $23.82.
Hourly compensation costs for all employees are higher than those for production workers in each economy covered by the two series, generally ranging from 10 percent to 25 percent higher than production worker hourly compensation costs.
Only 7 of the 28 foreign economies covered by both the production worker and all employee hourly compensation costs series had a larger difference between the compensation levels of the two groups than the United States.
These data are from the Foreign Labor Statistics program. To learn more, see "International Comparisons of Hourly Compensation Costs in Manufacturing, 2006", news release USDL 08-0093. Production workers generally include those employees who are engaged in fabricating, assembly, and related activities. All employees include production workers as well as all others employed full or part time in an establishment.

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/961,304 entitled "System and Method for Custom Module Creation and Deployment" by Rob Woolen, filed Oct. 8, 2004, which claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 60/570,953 filed May 13, 2004, which applications are incorporated herein by reference.
A portion of the disclosure of this patent document contains material which is subject to copyright protection. The copyright owner has no objection to the facsimile reproduction by anyone of the patent document or the patent disclosure, as it appears in the Patent and Trademark Office patent file or records, but otherwise reserves all copyright rights whatsoever.
The present invention relates generally to systems, methods, and machine readable media for creating and deploying applications in the Java operating system. More specifically, it relates to creating and deploying applications with new container types.
Since its inception in 1995, the Java programming language has become increasingly popular. Java, which is an interpreted language, enabled the creation of applications which could be run on a wide variety of platforms. This ability to function across a variety of different client platforms and Java's relatively easy implementation of network applications has resulted in its use in endeavors as basic as personal web pages to endeavors as complex as large business-to-business enterprise systems.
As Java has become more commonplace, a wide variety of tools and development platforms have been created to assist developers in the creation and implementation of Java applications. These platforms allow users to work with previously generated modules, thus reducing overlapped efforts.
While the conveniences provided by these platforms have enhanced and improved the development process, they have added additional rigidity as well. Developers are often limited to modules or module types having code that was shipped with the platform. The developers are often unable to use their own container types or customized modules without significant additional effort.
In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention applications are configured with custom modules. A deployment descriptor of an application includes a definition for a new container type and modules of the new container type. A deployment system reads the deployment descriptor and implements the modules of the new container type. The new containers are then available to assist in the deployment of the application.
The deployment system 130 is responsible for deploying the stored applications 110, 115 from the server storage to generate the deployed applications 140, 145. In one embodiment, the deployment system runs when the server is started and automatically deploys a group of preselected applications. In an alternate embodiment, the deployment system allows a system administrator to manually select which applications are deployed. The deployment system checks the deployment descriptors of each of the stored applications 110, 115 to locate the modules used by the application within that application's EAR file and to deploy the application. The deployed applications are then available for use by remote clients or any party interacting with the server. In some embodiments, the deployment system includes an application container 140. The application container 140 serves as an intermediary layer between a deployment subsystem of the deployment system 130 and the containers of an application server on which the applications will be deployed. The application container performs application classloading, Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI), file management, and parsing of deployment descriptors.
The containers 235 are modules running on the application server on which the applications are to be deployed. The containers 235 provide runtime support and deployment assistance for components such as EJBs, JSPs, and servlets. The application container 150 interacts with the containers 235 through a standardized interface which allows the application container to recognize and deploy modules of previously defined types.
The containers may be implemented through the server's original configuration. Alternately, the containers may be implemented through custom modules stored within an application. For example, an application can be configured with custom modules containing code for new container types. The deployment system can, upon reading the deployment descriptor of the application detect the presence of a new container, and implement the new container. The new container is then available for use in deploying the application.
The containers implement a ModuleFactory for each container type, the ModuleFactory configured to return instances of its associated module. The application container, when parsing a deployment descriptor, detects a call for a module of a particular type and returns an instance of that module.
The application additionally includes standard modules 325. The standard modules 325 are program units that provide the functionality for the application. The modules 325 can be common modules such as libraries, administrative web applications, Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs), Java Messaging System (JMS) modules, Java DataBase Connectivity (JDBC) modules, or any other modules that might be made available for the application. These modules 325 are supported by the server as originally configured and do not require separate declarations of their module types.
The custom modules 335 are modules associated with newly created container types which have been created for use in the application 105. The new types of custom modules are declared in the deployment descriptor 315. The application container 150 detects the declarations when parsing the deployment descriptor and configures itself to allow the deployment of modules of the new container type. The modules 335 contain the code for implementing the new container types declared in the deployment descriptor and once deployed are available, as the new containers, to assist in the deployment of the remainder of the application.
The deployment descriptor 315 additionally includes weblogic-application.xml, and weblogic-extension.xml files. While in the present embodiment, these files are referred to as "weblogic-application.xml" and "weblogic-extension.xml" they can in fact have any title and broadly refer to deployment descriptor files supplementing deployment information provided in the application.xml file 405.
The weblogic-application.xml file includes platform specific deployment information. The weblogic-application.xml file includes configuration information for database access through JDBC 425 as well as JMS configuration information 430 for messaging within the application as well with other applications. The JMS configuration 425 and JDBC configuration can be general or server specific configuration information. The weblogic-application.xml deployment descriptor additionally includes an XML registry 420 indicating the parameters for XML interaction between the application and other components.
Additionally, the weblogic-application.xml file can include a module deployment order specifying the order in which modules are deployed. If no module deployment order appears in the weblogic-application.xml file, the modules are deployed according to a previously set default order.
The weblogic-extension.xml file 445 includes custom module definitions 450 and custom module declarations 455. The custom module definitions 450 indicate a new container type and a module class and module factory class for the custom module. The custom module declarations 455 include instances of the new container type within the application. Each of the declarations 455 makes reference to the new container type defined in the custom module definitions 450. Shown below is one embodiment of a weblogic-extension.xml file in which a container type is defined and two instances of the container are declared.
<name> PortalModule </name>
<module-class> com.bea.portal.PortalModule</module-class>
<provider-name>PortalModule </provider-name>
<uri> AnotherPortal.xml <uri>
<provider-name> PortalModule </provider-name>
In step 510, the custom modules are created. The custom modules include code for implementing new container types that are defined in the deployment descriptors. The custom modules include interface components governing how the modules interact with the application container 150. The custom modules are then stored within the archive file storing the application.
In step 515, the deployment descriptors are configured. The deployment descriptors include application.xml and weblogic.application.xml extension files that include declarations for the various standard modules that are stored within the application. The deployment descriptors may additionally include a deployment order for the modules.
In step 615, the deployment system reads the deployment descriptor and detects references to the custom modules within the deployment descriptor. The deployment descriptor includes a definition of the new container type and instances of the new container in the application.
In step 620, the deployment system implements the new containers for use with the server. The new containers are included among the containers 235 illustrated in

Exclusive Video: Summerfest acoustic performance with Nikhil Korula
When we called Nikhil Korula from the Nikhil Korula Band and asked if he'd do an acoustic performance for Tap Milwaukee at Summerfest, he had to make a few calls, and essentially forced his band to rent a car at O'Hare to drive to the gig, instead of picking them up as planned.
Sorry about that guys -- but hey, we're all the richer for this lovely performance of his new song "Broken Roads" performed lakeside, from his new EP "Solo Sessions." »Read Full Blog Post

Large trove of art taken by Nazis recovered
Wonderful works of art secreted away by the Nazis as "degenerate" keep turning up "like bottles washed ashore," writes Micheal Kimmelman for The New York Times this morning, reporting on the latest trove of works discovered and unveiled in Augsburg, Germany, Tuesday.
About 1,500 pictures, a particularly large stash, were discovered in the Munich apartment of an old man whose father was a dealer in the Nazi era. From the initial reports and some blurry online reproductions, the collection appears to include works by Matisse, Courbet, Franz Marc, Max Liebermann, Marc Chagall, Max Beckmann and Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. »Read Full Blog Post(2)
Reading the John Updike stories: 'Snowing in Greenwich Village'
The Library of America recently published 'John Updike: The Collected Stories,' a two-volume boxed set of 186 stories arranged in chronological order. I'm reading one or more a week and commenting on them each Wednesday until I finish the collection or give up.
In "Snowing in Greenwich Village," John Updike introduces Richard and Joan Maple, a young married couple whose love, struggle, infidelity and divorce he will chronicle through a series of stories until they become grandparents. Published in 1956 in The New Yorker, "Snowing in Greenwich Village" is the only Maples story published in this collection; the Library of America is holding the others back for a future book. »Read Full Blog Post

The country superstar is officially joining Team Blake this season to help mentor Blake Shelton's contestants as they navigate the competition, NBC confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.
"He's really been good to me, and so the fact that I was able to get him here and and advise my team made perfect sense to me because he was actually a mentor for me," Shelton shares.
"If you know anything about country music, you know who Brad Paisley is. He's entertainer of the year. He's male vocalist of the year. He's sold millions of albums, and sold out tours. He's just one of the more respected singers. and just [among] people in the music industry and Nashville."
Paisley, 42, first visited The Voice in the show's first season when he and Shelton, 39, performed their duet "Don't Drink the Water," and the two also toured together that same year.
Take a Tour of Brad Paisley's At-Home Bar
"I wouldn't want to do this with anyone else – he's a blast to be around," Paisley said of Shelton. "We debuted [in country music] roughly around the same time … And we toured together in the struggling years. We have some great memories that I wouldn't trade for anything."
Season nine of The Voice returns Sept. 21 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.

Her talk was part of the second annual Eating Disorder Awareness Week, hosted by Emerson's chapter of Active Minds, which aimed to educate the college community and encourage those suffering to seek help.
Freshman Elizabeth Skerry started a campaign in high school to amend what she saw as an unfair dress code and restore, for her and other young women, the right to to bare their arms.
Internships like Clayton's can offer students hands-on fieldwork and a chance to bulk up one's resume. It's a topic particularly noteworthy on campus in anticipation of the biannual internship fair, hosted this semester on Feb. 25.
Here at the Castle, man and beast live with an unspoken truce.
Lion's Tooth, modeled after the popular news parody site The Onion, aims to include a mix of timely and evergreen stories, according to its three student co-creators, and has published over 40 articles since its launch.
Walking into a room full of college students coloring with the same supplies used by kindergarteners may be an unusual sight, but for Emerson freshmen Rachel Butler and Lucy Gatanis, it's a success.
If I had a successful interaction with a boy every time I got a zit on my chin, I would have so many fun conversations that I wouldn't be able to remember them all.
According to current students in the program, the process of applying for the interdisciplinary major can be stressful and time-consuming, and it's not well publicized.
These child stars agreed the intense but rewarding experience ultimately influenced their decisions to come to Emerson and pursue careers in the entertainment industry.
With over 1,000 visits in the first week after it was launched, KasteelWell.com seeks to provide a candid guide to life and travel at Emerson's castle program—a perspective that past participants said has been lacking.
It can feel intimidating to jump into discussion about gender, even at a liberal college that, by and large, invites such conversation. At Emerson, where many people seem so well versed on social justice issues, it can be hard to find your footing when you're trying to learn more about feminism.
Alumna Evy Chen developed the idea for her company EvyTea while at Emerson and won the annual entrepreneurship expo; her cold-brewed tea brand is now available at Whole Foods.
As soon as freshman Ali Reid started to walk, her mom put her in custom-fitted figure skates. Today, she is training for national figure skating competitions.

7 Tips for Preparing Your Dog for a New BabyDevan McGuinness
Dogs are our babies too and if you're expecting your first (human) baby, you may worry about how the changes will affect your dog.
Our dogs are a big part of our life and just like people, they love routine and being the love of our lives. If you are pregnant and worried about how your dog will take the new changes, that's a good thing. Just like it's best to prepare an older sibling for the arrival of a new baby, it's also important to look at that for your furry child.
From changes in their routine to getting issues underhand now, there are some tips you can follow to help your dog transition from an only 'child' to an older 'sibling'.
Click through to read 7 tips on how to prepare your dog for a new baby:
Get Your Dog Used to Getting His Nails Trimmed 1 of 7Your dog likely won't try to hurt the baby, but may accidently with his nails. Getting your dog used to getting hid nails trimmed before the baby comes can help them be comfortable with the procedure on a regular basis once the baby arrives.

Plan Their Care for the Birth 2 of 7Be sure to have a plan in place for who will walk and feed your dog when you're having the baby. It's also a good idea to have a plan for caring for the dog during your baby's first week home, as that is one of the biggest transitional periods for you.
Photo credit: iStockPhoto
Get the Big Changes Out of the Way 3 of 7If you need to move your dog's bed or change the house around, be sure to do that well in advance of your due date. It will give your dog some time to digest the changes before the baby comes and changes routine more.
Photo credit: iStockPhoto
Get Your Puppy Used To Kid Noises 4 of 7There are CDs available that will help your dog get used to the typical sounds that a new baby will make. It can help your dog feel less anxious or bothered when the new noises are for real.
Photo credit: iStockPhoto
Enroll in a Dog Training Program 5 of 7If you have some lingering discipline issues with your dog, you may want to think about enrolling her in a training program. Sometimes behavioral issues may come up or get worse when big changes come up, so it's best to work on fixing them before the birth (especially since you'll have your hands full).
Photo credit: iStockPhoto
Curb the Jumping 6 of 7If your dog is a jumper, spend the months before your due date training him not to jump up on you, and to get used to not just leaping into your lap as usual. Getting him used to being invited to your lap or into a room can help curb any problems around the baby.
Photo credit: iStockPhoto
Get Your Dog Used to Baby Things 7 of 7Try carrying around a baby doll when you're around your dog. She can see you holding a baby, changing a diaper, and getting used to not being the full center of attention. If you have friends with kids, try to get your dog to spend some time with them (safely) and get them used to kids in general.

No local government agency delivers more health care than Multnomah County.
Aside from running the jails, it's the biggest thing the county does.
According to its latest budget, Multnomah County will spend $265 million this year funding public health, clinics, mental health and addiction services. About $114 million comes from the county's general fund, while state and federal agencies largely provide the rest.
Yet the county's health-care mission has skidded sideways in the past year. Former health department director Lillian Shirley got arrested on a domestic violence charge last year (her estranged husband, the victim of her attack, declined to press charges) before she left to work for the state of Oregon. One of her top deputies, Sonia Manhas, engaged in an affair with then-Chairman Jeff Cogen, which cost both of them their jobs.
The county is busy erasing Manhas' legacy—its current budget does away with her old job—and voters in the May 20 primary must pick a replacement for Cogen.
The two leading candidates, Jim Francesconi and Deborah Kafoury, have both made changes in the county's health mission a key part of their campaigns.
Francesconi, who served as a Portland city commissioner from 1997 through 2004, has made economic development and closing of the income gap his key message. Kafoury, a former three-term state lawmaker and two-term county commissioner, says her experience in working on public health issues makes her the better choice.
So we asked them this question:
If elected county chair, what's the first big change you'd make to the county's health department?
Deborah Kafoury: "Right now, the chair of Multnomah County is not focused on health-care transformation. The biggest change would be a focus on it. Health-care transformation is so huge and the effects of it have still yet to be seen on the county. For example, one in every 10 residents of Multnomah County gets their health care through the county through one of our health clinics. Presumably, the majority of those people are now going to have insurance, and so they can chose where they get their care. We need to be heavily involved to see that mental-health piece of health-care transformation come to fruition, because what's going on with [coordinated care organizations] is not full integration at this point." [The current county chair is interim Marissa Madrigal. Subsequent to publication, Kafoury called to tell WW that she wasn't referring to Madrigal but instead to former county chair Jeff Cogen, who resigned in September.]
Jim Francesconi: "It makes no sense to me to have mental health in one department and physical health in another. The first change I'd make is combining them. That's been done everywhere. You have to integrate family care with mental-health care and elevate the role of mental health. And really elevate the county's focus on mental health. I don't know how you talk about homelessness without talking about mental health and addiction. It's a big reason homelessness has gone up 8 percent in the past two years in this city."

Well i saw on the KOEI Facebook page.
It says within the next few weeks, it's coming. The development team is also now fully aware of the terrible frame rate for the 360 version so they'll be working on it.

That's lame.
They took something out of the game and are making you pay to put it back in...
Lame, no wonder the English voice is some of the worst voice acting since the original resident evil.
I'm not Superman, that's for sure. And I'm not Batman or Spiderman or Aquaman or a wolfman or a merman. I'm not brahman or common or ramen, either.
Whoops, i also forgot to mention it's free.
Thankfully, it's been known that it's free, but I feel the same frustration. They're sound files that were already in the game before they were (mostly) replaced with English vocals. So why does it take so long to implement them, as if there wasn't enough disk space, anyway?

From what I heard as a rumor (so take this with a grain of salt), the JP voice were originally supposed to come packaged with the game on the disc, not as DLC since the Blu ray disc can hold the extra weight. They already got everything done, the licensing and negotiation with the JP side are also finished, so there's nothing holding them back.
However, the 360's disc can not hold any more information. The game on the 360 is already compressed enough as it is (and the game still have massive slow down), and adding this huge chunk of sound file in is not going to go well. So Koei was thinking of just having the dual voice option for PS3 only, but Microsoft does not want an inferior port on their system, so Koei was forced to equalize the playing ground by removing the voice track from both versions and release them as free DLC for both consoles. That way, both versions came out seemingly "equal" in contents, and it's purely depending on what console you have that decide which version get bought. It was a compromise
But we all know how that turns out to not be the case.
I'm not bashing the 360 here, this is just simply the truth. On hte 360 board, they seems to found a way to minimize this issue somewhat by lowering resolution, so good for them if they can play this smoothly.
Also, note that I said this was simply a rumor that I heard on another forum. Whether it's true or not is anybody's guess. Frankly, I find it weird that Microsoft even worry about such things for a game series that never sell well on their console anyway.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
3612QM: An Ivy Bridge-based quad-core processor clocked at 2.1 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.1 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4000 GPU running at 650-1100 MHz on a dual channel DDR3 memory controller. The speciality of the i7-3612QM is the low TDP of 35 Watt compared to 45 Watt of the other Ivy Bridge quad core CPUs (e.g. 3610QM).» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

The Pendulum of Time trilogy is comprised of three ebooks: 'Kill Them Wherever You Find Them', 'Abducting the Time Master', and 'Fluid Future.' Each book is a complete and exciting, adventure-filled story.
If you're anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, anti-Muslim, pro-terrorism, pro-hate, looking for sex scenes and vulgar language; don't read this book, you won't like it.
If you love great sci-fi and are kind-hearted enough to overlook errors (the author is mostly blind), sit back and enjoy this riviting story. Please note that in some instances the writing is altered to reflect how Russians today, and Civil War era American Southerners of the past actually speak. (For example: In the Russian language the indefinite articles "a," "an," and "the" do not exist.) This is to provide an extra measure of authencity to the characters and story line. (While he speaks several languages, the author is a native English speaker with an extensive vocabulary and textbook grammar.)
The Israeli spy agency, the Mossad, has uncovered actionable intelligence detailing a daring and highly organized, well-funded, strike against the State of Israel and large Jewish population centers in major cities around the world. Terrorists have obtained, modified and weaponized two biological pathogens secreted from a Level Four Bio Research Lab outside Moscow.
A former Special Ops scholar from the U.S. is recruited to work with "The Project," an ultra-secret program. It is anticipated that a drastic and last ditch response to the attacks, utilizing advances in technology, will thwart the terrorists from executing their plan of annihilation.
Before exploiting this extraordinary scientific discovery it must first be field tested in as controlled an environment as possible with measurable, history altering results. A violent and racist family, with criminal roots dating back to the American Civil War, has been identified for the first phase. The objective: Eliminate the sociopath patriarch of this family and carefully measure the time-line 'ripple' effects that could adversely affect the current timeline.
The American Operative, Jeff Stauffenburg, is sent to Civil War era Virginia where he is taken prisoner during a surprise Confederate raid to capture fleeing slaves and their sympatizers. Critically wounded during the raid, Jeff finds himself facing death from a leg wound that is going septic. Should he survive that he still faces the hangman's noose as a northern spy.
Without the successful completion of this first critical phase, the second phase comes to a halt even as the terror leaders continue to strengthen their presence with sleeper cells inserted within Israel and strategic cities worldwide. Should they prevail the terrorists will succeed in wiping Israel off the face of the map, guaranteeing that no survivors of world Jewry will be able to rebuild their country. Millions will die in abject agony.
In Los Angeles one of the bio-agents is released early, by accident, in an apartment building killing the residents within minutes of its dispersion. This crises brings in the full weight of the United States counter-terror units, FBI, CIA, and the Centers for Disease Control; even as a Mossad agent monitoring the the foot traffic and conversations of the 'safe house' of two known leaders of the terror network, learns that this accidental release half a world away has moved the scheduled strike date well ahead of schedule.
The story interweaves the lives, hopes and differing perspectives of the main characters who are well defined, leaving you to feel toward some as you would a friend while pitying and perhaps loathing others. The thrilling conclusion leaves you hungering for the next two books as you become emotionally invested in the lives and unfolding stories of the people in the trillogy.
A complete story in and of itself, the exciting book takes you through twists that are at times expected, sometimes completely unanticipated and surprising – even shocking. As a bonus the first several chapters of the second book in the "Pendulum of Time" are included at the end of your book.

Yodmongkol Vor Saengthep Batters Koki Eto in Twelve
By James Goyder
Yodmongkol Vor Saengthep Batters Koki Eto En Route to 12th Round KO in WBA Interim World Flyweight Bout
Yodmongkol Vor Saengthep succeeded where compatriot Kompayak Porpramook had recently failed by defeating Koki Eto to claim the WBA Interim World Flyweight Title. The 22 year old finished the brave Japanese fighter with a brutal barrage in the 12th round.
Despite enjoying a significant height and reach advantage Eto made no attempt to work from range, instead engaging the Thai fighter in toe to toe exchanges and looking to land looping hooks to the body and uppercuts to the head.
Yodmongkol kept a high guard and absorbed the vast majority of his opponent's punches whereas Eto's hands were low and he was consistently on the receiving end of short hooks and strafing right hands.
The Thai seemed to be getting the better of the exchanges and landing the cleaner punches and at the start of round six he followed up a hard straight right with a left hook which saw Eto stumbling backwards to take a ten count.
Even when he seemed on the verge of being stopped Eto never looked to cover up and defend, instead staying in the pocket and trying to counter but he had no answer for the power and accuracy of Yodmongkol
Another straight right hand from the 22 year old Thai left Eto on wobbly legs in the ninth and the following round Yodmongkol picked up the pace even further, strafing the Japanese fighter with straight right hands and rocking him with a left hook towards the end of the round.
In round 11 only the ropes kept Eto on his feet as he desperately hooked an arm out seeking support after yet another right hand knocked him backwards. Yodmongkol wasn't interested in seeing the fight out for an inevitable decision win and went all out for the finish in the final three minutes.
He came out swinging straight from the bell and landed three hard right hands in quick succession followed by a right uppercut, Eto's legs were gone but instead of covering up or trying to defend he attempted to fire back and paid the price when another straight right hand sent him stumbling and a right uppercut finished the job.
The Japanese fighter drops to 14-3-1 after suffering his second defeat in Thai soil. Eto deserves credit for his insistence on going out guns blazing and hopefully won't suffer any long term effects after taking a lot of hard shots to the head, particularly in the championship rounds.
With his 27th straight win Yodmongkol improves to 33-2 and claims the first world title of his boxing career, albeit only an interim version of the WBA 112 lbs strap.

Malik is an assistant professor at Quaid-i-Azam University in Islamabad, Pakistan, where she specializes in conflict, military sociology, South Asian affairs, human security, and disarmament. From 1996 to 1999, she was a research officer at the Institute of Strategic Studies in Islamabad. Her publications include, with Mallika Joseph, Small Arms and the Security Debate in South Asia; and, with Saira Yamin, Mapping Conflict Trends in Pakistan. In 2003 she received a master's degree in defense and strategic studies from Quaid-i-Azam University and is currently pursuing a doctorate in politics and international relations from the same university.
In nuclear war, women would suffer at least as much as men. But women tend to be underrepresented in fields—such as high-level politics, diplomacy, military affairs, and science and technology—that bear on nuclear policy.
Women have as much reason as men to fear nuclear war. Maybe more. But women have relatively little control over whether nuclear weapons are ever used—or whether they continue to exist. How can women break into the largely male preserve of weapons policy?
The author argues that a gender-based sense of patriotism often turns disarmament into something "soft," feminized, or emasculated—not only hindering disarmament but also making it difficult to establish a credible feminist approach to hard-core strategic studies and policy making.
The author argues that increased influence for women might have little effect on disarmament. Nonetheless, women's empowerment in nuclear issues is important for women themselves and for the sake of social equality.
The author argues that women involved in nuclear policy, because they must struggle to prove that they are equal to their male counterparts, often take on personas that are stern, hawkish, and "masculine."
