Ethical Realism: A Vision for America's Role in the Worldby Anatol Lieven
View All Available Formats & Editions
America today faces a world more complicated than ever before, but our politicians have failed to envision a foreign policy that addresses our greatest threats. Ethical Realism shows how the United States can successfully combine genuine morality with tough and practical common sense. By outlining core principles and a set of concrete proposals for tackling the terrorist threat and contend with Iran, Russia, the Middle East, and China, Anatol Lieven and John Hulsman show us how to strengthen our security, pursue our national interests, and restore American leadership in the world.

Lessons of the Truman-
Eisenhower Moment
The best test of truth is the power of the thought to get itself accepted in the competition of the market.
–oliver wendell holmes
With the passing of George Kennan in March 2005, the last living member of the Truman administration, the most successful foreign policy team in modern American history, left the stage. Between 1945 and 1960, these men and their successors and de facto allies in the Eisenhower administration set the United States on the road to eventual victory in the Cold War. The success of the containment doctrine that they developed can be gauged by the fact that it was followed in one form or another until the collapse of the Soviet Union.
The triumph of the Truman years is all the more remarkable given that at the time of his swearing in, Harry Truman's only trip overseas had been as an artillery officer in World War I; he had never spoken to a Soviet citizen. What he did possess was native shrewdness; tremendous strength of character; deep patriotism and sense of responsibility; and not least, the self-confidence to appoint brilliant men to positions of responsibility and then back them to the hilt. For in the wake of World War II, with a new threat, Soviet Communism, facing the West, Truman and his team, somewhatunexpectedly followed by Eisenhower, established an entirely new model for American foreign policy that led to victory against an entirely different sort of enemy.
The threat of Soviet Communist expansionism after 1945 was not a sudden shock like Pearl Harbor or 9/11, but it was just as much of a jolt to the American system and attitudes. For the first time, the United States was faced with the need for permanent mobilization to meet a severe and open-ended global threat and maintain an indefinite and massive set of global commitments.
Until the Cold War, America's military commitments beyond its shores had always been brief, and with a predictable end. Most were short wars, after which it was assumed that America would go home; in the case of the occupations of the Philippines and several Caribbean nations after the defeat of Spain, the overseas commitments were small-scale. None of them required the United States to create a permanent conscript army or permanent security institutions like those the European states had had to develop over the centuries. Indeed, much of America's political tradition, since the first days of the colonies, was founded precisely on hostility to such "standing armies."
Not only did the Cold War now require such massive permanent mobilization, but the existence of atomic bombs made a general war with a relatively quick victory with limited losses–as in previous wars–difficult to imagine. After the United States and the Soviet Union both developed thermonuclear weapons, easy victory was almost impossible to imagine. The United States had to learn to live for the first time with permanent tension, which some found unbearable.
The war on terror is of course very different, but it is equally difficult to imagine any quick and successful end to it, especially through U.S. military action. Terrorism, like nuclear weapons, makes nonsense of General Douglas A. MacArthur's dictum that "in war there can be no substitute for victory." The substitute is holding the line and preventing the enemy from winning–which is what civilized states have been doing vis-ˆ-vis barbarian enemies since the beginning of recorded time. The Byzantines never did "win" conclusively against their enemies, any more than successive Chinese dynasties did against their own barbarian menace. But they held them off for centuries, during which time great civilizations flourished and eventually produced the societies and technologies by which the barbarian threat could be extinguished.
The Soviet threat therefore required a radical reconfiguration of U.S. institutions and global strategy. Even more important, it required a fundamental rethinking of America's vision of its role in the world–"a complete revolution in American foreign policy and the attitude of the American people," as Truman's secretary of state Dean Acheson called it.#1 The old comforting nostrums of George Washington's Farewell Address, of avoiding foreign entanglements at all costs, made little sense in a world where ignoring Adolf Hitler's rise had already led to such cataclysmic results. Ignoring Soviet ambitions to dominate the world was simply no longer an option. New thinking, based on these new realities, was vital.
The Truman administration, followed by that of Eisenhower, recognized the radically new, different, and long-term nature of the struggle, and developed radically new strategies, institutions, and forces to wage it. The National Security Act of 1947, introduced eighteen months after relations with the Soviet Union began their radical downhill slide, created a range of new and vitally important government institutions, including the National Security Council, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the Air Force (previously a branch of the U.S. Army). It also created strict and clear rules for operating procedures and relations between them. The revelation of the catastrophic danger of terrorism that occurred on September 11, 2001, demanded an equally new institutional and strategic response from the Bush administration–but did not receive it.
The Truman-Eisenhower period is worth studying because it is an example of radical reform in the midst of crisis, but also because of who was proved to be right by history and who was proved to be wrong. Those who have obviously been proved right were the authors of a tough but restrained strategy of "containing" Soviet expansionism, without launching or unduly risking war; and of meanwhile undermining Communism through the force of the West's democratic and free market example. This took longer than many of them had hoped–but given that we won completely in the end, a few decades of mostly peaceful struggle were surely preferable to nuclear cataclysm.
By contrast, the "preventive war" and "rollback" schools of thought during the Cold War were proved wrong on just about everything. And a river of wrongness has flowed down from them to their neoconservative descendants of today, many of whose ideas derive directly from those of the hard-liners of the Truman and Eisenhower eras. Would you buy advice on your investments from a firm that has been wrong for sixty years?
For despite hard-liners on the right and appeasers on the left who attempted to derail the Truman-Eisenhower moment, the establishment achieved a fundamental and brilliantly successful rethinking of strategy: the containment doctrine that defined the Truman-Eisenhower moment signaled something entirely new for the United States and the world. Such is also our task today. The efforts of the Bush administration and the neoconservatives to push their agenda have come to predictable grief in Iraq and elsewhere. We must invent something new if we are to avoid the fate of confusion, decline, and ultimate defeat that continuing to pursue such a course is fated to hold. Fortunately, America's past, and especially the Truman-Eisenhower era, provide inspiration on how to proceed.
The Truman Record
The Truman administration is a tale of both what it did (the Marshall Plan and the creation of NATO) and what it did not do (turn the Korean War into a world war). Its guiding foreign policy strategy, the containment doctrine, was clearly laid down at the start, but also evolved over time, as events influenced the thinking of the administration.
Despite the evident hostility of Stalin's regime toward the West, abandoning the wartime alliance with the Soviet Union was not easy for the Truman administration. Although the U.S. establish ment and most ordinary Americans had always been deeply suspicious of Communism, the wartime alliance with the Soviet Union had created real feelings of friendship, and even more important, passionate hopes that long-term U.S.-Soviet cooperation would ensure peace and progress for humanity in general.
Initially, therefore, it was not the Red Army's conquest of Eastern Europe in the final days of World War II that primarily unnerved Washington. Rather, Moscow began to set its sights on areas of clear strategic importance to the United States that lay beyond the war's demarcation lines; in seeking to maintain its military presence in northern Iran in 1946 and in threatening Turkey's sole control of the Dardanelles strait, it appeared that Moscow was, like the Nazis, trying rapidly to dominate the world.
George Kennan, then acting head of the U.S. embassy in Moscow, proposed a different explanation of Soviet behavior. His "Long Telegram" back to Washington is probably the single most important State Department cable ever written. For what Kennan did was to give voice to the growing American unease about Soviet expansionism, give an explanation of what motivated this expansionism and how it operated, and propound a strategy for dealing with it. He laid the intellectual basis for the containment doctrine that was eventually to bring the United States victory in the Cold War.
In an essay of 1947 based on the telegram, Kennan wrote,
The first of the [Soviet Communist] concepts is that of the innate antagonism between capitalism and socialism. . . . It must invariably be assumed in Moscow that the aims of the capitalist worlds are antagonistic to the Soviet regime, and therefore to the interests of the peoples it controls. . . . And from [this belief in natural antagonism] flow many of the phenomena which we find disturbing in the Kremlin's conduct of foreign policy: the secretiveness, the lack of frankness, the duplicity, the wary suspiciousness and the basic unfriendliness of purpose.2
Today, this portrayal seems self-evident, denied only by a few elements of the old left. It is difficult to exaggerate, however, its startling and essential effect on Americans of early 1946, and especially liberals, passionately anxious to believe that the Soviet Union, which had made such terrible sacrifices in the struggle against Nazism, and "good old Uncle Joe" Stalin himself, were basically decent, and wanted good relations with the United States.
Kennan saw Stalin and the Soviet Communists as essentially expansionist, but also cautious, because they saw history as on their side and therefore could afford to wait. Compared with the Nazis, they were more rational, and would not force the pace in their drive for global dominance. The Soviet leadership therefore proceeded not according to some strategic doctrine, but opportunistically. They would constantly probe for political, social, and economic weaknesses and divisions in the non-Communist world, seeking to exploit these to their benefit. Unlike the Nazis, however, they would also stop or retreat wherever they met strong resistance, rather than driving ahead, ignoring the risks and the cost. There was rarely a need for America to adopt "threats or blustering or superfluous gestures of outward 'toughness.' " Instead, Kennan said,
It is a sine qua non of successful dealing with Russia that the government in question should remain at all times cool and collected and that its demands on Russian policy should be put forward in such a manner as to leave the way open for a compliance not too detrimental to Russian prestige.
Kennan recommended that Washington adopt two broad strategic countermeasures. First, the containment doctrine drew demarcation lines between the non-Communist and Communist worlds, with the American priority going to bolster allies nearest the lines, such as West Germany, Iran, Greece, Turkey, Japan, and later, South Korea. Second, it would be critically important to build up the free world economically and socially, as Communism thrived on economic suffering, social conflict, and political chaos.#3
The Korean War is the classic example of the military aspects of containment being put to the test, with the United States and its allies–after stumbling very badly twice in the first six months of the war–ultimately defeating North Korean dictator Kim Il Sung's dreams of a unified Communist Korea. It was preceded by U.S. and British measures to strengthen militarily the anti-Communist side in Greece's civil war. The Marshall Plan, Truman's grand effort to stabilize Western Europe, is the great expression of the equally critical nonmilitary aspects of the doctrine.4 This simple, carefully limited strategy was crowned by the fact that the Soviet Union ultimately committed suicide, much as Kennan had predicted with almost uncanny accuracy forty-five years before:
[Unless its Communist economy radically changes] Russia will remain economically a vulnerable and in some sense an impotent nation. . . . Soviet power is only a crust concealing an amorphous mass of human beings among whom no independent organizational structure is tolerated. . . . If, consequently, anything were ever to occur to disrupt the unity and efficacy of the Party as a political instrument, Soviet Russia might be changed overnight from one of the strongest to one of the weakest and most pitiable of national societies.
Rarely in history has such analytical brilliance led to such wise policy recommendations being followed over such a long period of time. Critical to this success was not only the wisdom of the policy itself, but the creation of bipartisan domestic consensus that–in the face of heavy odds–ensured that Truman's strategy was followed by Eisenhower's Republican administration.
Harry Truman succeeded in politically isolating the left wing of the Democratic Party, which favored some sort of accommodation with the U.S.S.R. (epitomized by former vice president and 1948 presidential candidate Henry Wallace). The hard-line, preventive war wing of the Republican Party, symbolized by General Douglas MacArthur, was likewise marginalized.
Instead of either accommodation or war, political competition with the Soviets became the modus operandi in the immediate post-1945 era. This state of affairs was reinforced by the election of Dwight Eisenhower in 1952, a Republican who essentially continued his Democratic predecessor's strategy. In seeing off these threats to a bipartisan foreign policy, the Truman and Eisenhower administrations laid the basis for eventual victory in the Cold War.
The "Truman-Eisenhower moment" was also a "Churchill-Bevin moment," when tough-minded members of Britain's Labour government–including moderate socialists–joined with the Conservative opposition to create a new alliance with the United States to resist Soviet expansionism.#5 This contributed in turn to the rallying of both Christian Democrat and Social Democrat leaders across Western Europe to the same cause. None of this could have been achieved if the United States during that period had pursued a strategy of reckless ideological unilateralism.
Such unilateralism has been characteristic of today's neoconservatives, and the Bush administration, and has created immense problems for U.S. strategy. For unilateralism can so easily become a self-fulfilling prophecy, leading to an America that cannot find allies even if it later seeks them. As the history of America and Europe in the early years of the Cold War makes clear, courting allies does not show weakness–it is a requirement of strategic success in a world where the United States is preeminent but not all-powerful, and is facing powerful enemies and intractable challenges.
The Truman-Eisenhower continuity did not stem from personal affinity between the two men; Truman never forgave Eisenhower for not defending General Marshall from the vile and unfounded attacks of Senator Joseph McCarthy. Nor did Eisenhower ever ask his predecessor for advice the way Truman had consulted former president Herbert Hoover. Well into his retirement, Truman could hardly say anything about Eisenhower without resorting to profanity.#6

In June 1964,
Peter & Gordon
became the very first British Invasion act after
the Beatles
to take the number one spot on the American charts with "A World Without Love." That hit, and their subsequent successes, were due as much or more to their important connections as to their talent.
Peter Asher
was the older brother of
Jane Asher
, Paul McCartney's girlfriend for much of the '60s. This no doubt gave
Gordon Waller
access to
compositions that were unrecorded by
the Beatles
, such as "A World Without Love" and three of their other biggest hits, "Nobody I Know," "I Don't Want to See You Again," and "Woman" (the last of which was written by
under a pseudonym). But
Peter & Gordon
were significant talents in their own right, a sort of
Everly Brothers
-styled duo for the British Invasion that faintly prefigured the folk-rock of the mid-'60s. In fact, when
Gene Clark
first approached
Jim McGuinn
in 1964 about working together in a group that would eventually evolve into
the Byrds
, he suggested that they could form a
Peter & Gordon
-styled act.
had been singing together since their days at Westminster School for Boys, a private school in London. "A World Without Love" was their biggest and best hit, one that sounded very much like
the Beatles
' more pop-oriented originals. Their other two 1964 hits, "Nobody I Know" and "I Don't Want to See You Again," were pleasant but less distinguished. Sounding like
-dominated Beatles rejects (which, in fact, they were), the production employed a softer, more acoustic feel than the hits by
the Beatles
and other early British Invasion guitar bands. "I Don't Want to See You Again" used strings, as would several of the duo's subsequent hits, which became increasingly middle-of-the-road in their pop orientation.
Some scattered folky B-sides showed that
may have been capable of developing into decent songwriters, but like many of the less talented British Invaders, their lack of songwriting acumen and ability to move with the times, would eventually work against them. They did continue to hit the charts for a couple of years, with updates of the oldies "True Love Ways" (
Buddy Holly
) and "To Know You Is to Love You" (a variation of the Teddy Bears' "To Know Her Is to Love Her"). There was also a Top Ten cover of Del Shannon's "I Go to Pieces," and the brassy,
-penned "Woman." The overtly cute British novelty "Lady Godiva," though, became their last big hit in late 1966.
Peter & Gordon
broke up in 1968,
became an enormously successful producer, first as the director of A&R at
the Beatles
' Apple Records (where he worked on James Taylor's first album). Relocating to Los Angeles in the '70s, he was one of the principal architects of mellow California rock, producing

Gradually people come to either accept it or explain it to themselves. Eventually it vanishes, or it never does. The only example I can think of is Marques's "A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings." I know there are others. ANy examples? urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:crowleycrow:258786 Revenge of the Metaphor 2015-09-15T00:49:27Z 2015-09-15T00:49:27Z

Treating metaphors as merelycolorful ways of saying things can irritate them, and sometimes they bite. In a local arts & culture magazine, an aricle about how hard it was to restore Emily Dickinson's house. It was helped by the discovery of some fragments of wall paper still adhering to surfaces. "Discovery of the wall paper fragments...lit a a fire under museum directors and the board of governors," the article says. "Not that the fire was quick to burn," he continues, giving us time to beat out the metaphorical flames consuming Emily's home.

Adam Gopnik, writing in the New Yorker about Max Beerbohm, the paradigmatic beloved minor writer. "Beerbohm found so many ways to be modest that when he had to try and be major he couldn't." (Max assembled materials for a big Jamesian novel he got nowhere with.) "Still," Gopnik writes, there is no such thing as a minor writer, because--there is no such thing as a major writer. As Max wrote, considering Whistler, even Shakespeare occupies shockingly little of our attention -- shocking, that is, for those of us who are trying to occupy it too. (Boswell, one of Max's favorites, said the same thing about Voltaire: no had ever been more talked of, and look how little, really, Voltaire was talked of.) This means that bigness is a mirage, but it also means smallness is a kind of illusion too. Anyone who is read at all is more or less the same size."

I think that's a wonderful insight.
 urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:crowleycrow:257616 Childish things 2015-08-11T23:34:05Z 2015-08-11T23:34:05Z
From an article in the 0online NYRB by Glen H. Shepherd about photiographs of the now-nonexistent Selk'nam people of Tierra del Fuego: "There is something bewitchingly surreal about his photographs of the Hain initiation ceremony, in which young Selk'nam men are hazed by a pantheon of spirits that are revealed, in the final moments (forbidden to women), to be kinsmen in elaborate masks." An African people I read about have an inititation for young men in which weird sounds are heard in the bush, and the young men are dared to follow the sounds. When they have sufficiently faced their terror of the spirit world the elders appear and show them how the sound is made, with what in English is called a bullroarer. Basically the older men induct the younger into the facts of the world: we are the gods you fear. It's like a child being told there's no Santa Claus, it's Dad in the red suit, but don't tell the younger ones.

Women aren't part of these intitiation ceremonies -- theirs turn on menstruation and other secrets -- maybe they already guess these male secrets, or maybe they don't care.

Wouldn't it be interseting if our churches worked the same way -- you believe and pray and have magic helpers and angels and speak to Grandma in heaven, and then when you grow up your "confirmation" is actually to learn it's all not so; it's a means or a divine game but not a set of facts, and we ourselves are its origin. "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things."

The old, old question of Who are you? to one's own self grown strangely evasive

in the gloaming, and to God's world around to which one has never been really

introduced.

Reading "The Real Life of Sebastian Knight" for reasons that will be clear when my Harper's essay-after-next (November) appears. It's the best example I know -- there are many -- of the novel that contains summaries or selections of novels written by a character, to varied effect. (Nabokov's mostly to discharge ideas that sound wonderful but really couldn't be written.)

It was wonderful throughout, though (as is common now) a bit darker-hued than you'd expect. I was reminded of Max Reinhardt's 1930s film of "Midsummer Night's Dream" in the casting, assembled as in a dream -- Alfred Molina, David Strathairn, Chis Cooper (!), Alan Cumming, Tom Conti -- all doing classic strong Shakespeare verse-speaking. ANd of course Helen Mirren as Prospero -- sorry, Prospera -- giving one of the most moving performances in a Shakespeare film I've ever seen. Somehow her exchanges with Miranda were more touching and intimate as mother-daughter than as father-daughter, and her concern for both her lost power and her child were enriched. Her great last speech ("This rough magic I here abjure") had me in tears, maybe because I feel myself to be an old (would-be) mage in the same condition. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:crowleycrow:256573 Rough magic 2015-07-23T15:56:00Z 2015-07-23T15:56:00Z Watched Julie Taymor's Tempest last night.

It reviews books that wouldn't be noticed in any general weekly. It reviews books in languages other than English and quotes from them in the original, which even if I can't read is pleasant to encounter. And it furnishes me every week with examples of how different British and American English are, both in older locutions and in new-fangled ones -- despite the fear in my youth that the two would become an indistinguishable slew they have actually drifted farther apart in recent decades (I think). Older locution of the week, in a review of a Antonia Fraser's autobiography: her mother's brother "contracts polio: from his propinquity to the Oxford poor in Cowley or the bran-tub of the Countess of Jersey's lucky-dip?" urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:crowleycrow:256065 Readercon 2015-07-08T15:09:48Z 2015-07-08T15:09:48Z Hello all after long absence. I'm posting my Readercon schedule here for you all to keep in your wallets:

Thursday July 09
9:00 PM ENL How to Write for a Living When You Can't Live Off Your Fiction.. Leah Bobet, John Crowley, Michael Dirda, Barbara Krasnoff (leader).You've just been laid off from your staff job, you can't live on the royalties from your fiction writing, and your significant other has taken a cut in pay. How do you pay the rent? Well, you can find freelance work writing articles, white papers, reviews, blogs, and other non-SFnal stuff. Despite today's lean journalistic market, it's still possible to make a living writing, editing, and/or publishing. Let's talk about where and how you can sell yourself as a professional writer, whether blogging can be done for a living, and how else you can use your talent to keep the wolf from the door. Bring whatever ideas, sources, and contacts you have.
Friday July 10
6:00 PM F From the French Revolution to Future History: Science Fiction and Historical Thinking. Christopher Cevasco, Phenderson Clark, Jonathan Crowe, John Crowley, Victoria Janssen (leader). Arts journalist Jeet Heer wrote, "It's no accident H.G. Wells wrote both [The] Time Machine and The Outline of History (one of the most popular history books ever), [and] it's no accident that science fiction writers are also often historical novelists: Kim Stanley Robinson, Nicola Griffith, etc." For Heer, science fiction, fantasy, historical fiction, and horror can all be grouped under the meta-genre of fantastika, and all emerged from the "epistemological rupture" of the French Revolution, which "forced us to think of history in new way, with new emphasis on ruptures and uncontrollable social forces." Is Heer right to see these commonalities? Is it useful to think of historical fiction in fantastika terms? And how do speculative genres borrow from historical ones?
Saturday July 11
2:00 PM G Imagining the Author. John Crowley, Natalie Luhrs, Kate Maruyama, Kathryn Morrow (leader), Diane Weinstein. Is it possible to read a piece of fiction without keeping in mind that the author has a gender, an age, a profession, an ethnic identification, a height, a weight, or a race? And if it is possible to truly do away with assumptions, without inserting one's own characteristics as a supposed neutral state, is it a good idea? How does assuming that the author is like or unlike the reader influence the reader's experience of a piece, or a critic's analysis of it? Is imagining the author a necessary starting point for any deep read or critique, or is this all ultimately a distraction from addressing the work itself?
3:00 PM F Shifting the Realism Conversation. Leah Bobet, Michael Cisco, John Crowley, John Langan, Yves Meynard. In a 2014 interview, James Patterson, not generally thought of as a fabulist, declared, "I don't do realism. Sometimes people will mention that something I've written doesn't seem realistic and I always picture them looking at a Chagall and thinking the same thing." Meanwhile, the SF/F world is engaged in ongoing discussions about the value and meaning of realism in epic fantasy, particularly the variety that uses claims of realism to justify portrayals of violence, bigotry, and misery in cod-medieval settings. What shifts in these discussions if we adopt Patterson's framing, setting modernism and abstraction in opposition to realism? What would abstract, modernist, Chagall-like epic fantasy look like? And would it work, or is some adherence to the real necessary in stories that explore the unreal?
8:30 PM Reading. John Crowley reading from his now completed but unpublished novel KA: Dar Oakley in the Ruin of Ymr. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:crowleycrow:255997 Pot-Kettle entanglement 2015-05-22T13:11:27Z 2015-05-22T13:11:27Z Karl rove's American Crossroads super-PAC has taken on the job of diminishing Hillary CLinton in the public mind. A quote from the NY Times about the Rove process:

"In recent weeks, Crossroads has begun carving a niche for itself in attacking Hillary Rodham Clinton, the presumed Democratic front-runner. The group will use polling data and opposition research to paint her as "a typical politician who would say or do anything to get elected," said Steven Law, president of Crossroads." urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:crowleycrow:255521 crowleycrow @ 2015-05-18T17:26:00 2015-05-18T21:24:59Z 2015-05-18T21:24:59Z Slate magazine informs me (what you all knew) that Twin Peaks where the bikers shot one another up is a "breast-themed" restaurant. Worst breast-themed restaurant name since Hooters, which I have never been quite able to say aloud, much less visit. ANd here I thought the Waco one had something to do with David Lynch. But no -- just Grand Tetons.

"The work will also add to a raging discussion in the policy world about how to best reduce poverty.

One of the pieces (for which the issue was suppressed) included one "proposed title" -- which I was amazed to see -- and research showed me was not far in the finished book, which i read with care long ago -- including this passage no doubt -- which i thereupon forgot that I had read, except i perhaps had NOT forgot:

EVERYMAN HIS OWN WIFE

 OR

 A HONEYMOON IN THE HAND

 (A NATIONAL IMMORALITY IN THREE ORGASMS)

 BY

 BALLOCKY MULLIGAN

 It's even described as a sort of play, as was my own:

Ars Auto-Amatoria, or
Every Man his Own WIfe

A Very Heroic Epyllion, in Four Fits

...with a Dramatis personae which included "the brothers,Ballaock, a pair of hangers-on" (see Daemonomania, pp.147-152 of the Bantam edition). OBVIOUSLY readers have assumed I just lifted it. And maybe I did.

Pretty weak when a street dude like Beans goes hard at a dude like Drake. Drake already let it be known that he's in it for the money and women, he aint a street dude, why act tough with him? Did I miss Drake dissing Beans or is he just trying to keep his name out there?

Lyrically Beans has not fallen off. But mainstream wise, the spot he was in, he fell off of that spot.
Off topic: Now Musically fallen off rap artist that comes to mind but is still mainstream is Eminem. This dude went soft. He looked like a hard ass rapper in his first like 3 albums then he just went soft. The media and having a daughter killed the old Eminem which is understandable. He wants to be a good dad, you have to respect that. He changed for his little girl. But I hate when people try to defend him that he's still comes up with great songs, he doesn't.

Beans knows how Jay-Z operates more than you and what he says could only come out of his mouth if he is a student of the game (which he is).
In the 40 min. radio interview he did when he dropped the outright diss track, he broke down how the Santa Claus line and a few other lines in BP3 were subliminal shots at him.
Beans never mentioned Jay-Z not doing enough for State Property. Beans didn't leave the Roc, Rocafella broke up and he went with Jay!!!
Beans did want to go to G-Unit because 50 was offering him a major advance and he wasn't doing anything at the ROC, but Jay (then President of Def Jam) said no. Freeway also wanted to go to G-Unit and asked for Jay's blessing and he said "No" too.
After he stopped getting any promo for years and Jay did what he did in court, Beans contract expired and they went their separate ways.
The only thing I agree with is your last sentence and it's because people are brainwashed into thinking that nobody can go at Jay-Z.

I swear... this rap **** goes over a lot of people's heads. Real lyricist are smarter than people give them credit for.
But he's been talking about his daughter since Slim Shady LP. Em has a ton of material to work with (he's supposedly been addicted to hard drugs for the last few years, Proof's death, etc.). I figure the only thing he's toned down is the hatred in his music, particularly toward his ex, mom, and the industry.

Children's Village
Here you will find the climbing frame and a welcoming selection of marquees and children friendly workshops, games and craft activities.
A Crèche space is provided for children under five and their parents or guardians. This is a pleasant small marquee in the children's village area with a wood stove that can be lit in damp weather. This is not staffed but is run by parents and volunteers on the camp, coordinated with help from Earthsong.
As a very wise woman once said ' Children are the heartbeat of Earthsong and if we can keep them happy the whole camp will be happy!'
This is the ethos with which we run the children's area. We see it as an opportunity for children to be creative in a non-classroom environment; weather permitting many of our workshops are held outdoors. Everyday we run a variety of activities and endeavour to facilitate something to suit each age group.
What's on offer - Previous Workshops
Felting, Wand Making, building Fairy Houses, Land Surfing, Sports, Games, Painting, Song Writing, Costume Making, Teddy Bears Picnic, Mask making, knitting, Jewellery making, Puppet making, Make your own Flag, Ceramics, Wrestling, Story telling, Drama, Drumming, Dancing, Learning about the Ecology of the Forest and Beautiful forest walks.
We see Earthsong as an opportunity to re-connect children to the earth, to awaken and nurture their sense of wonder and awe of nature. Most importantly we wish the experience to be liberating and fun and we hope the memories last a lifetime.
Children are the responsibility of their parents or guardians at all times.
"Earthsong 2010 was absolutely amazing, especially the big drum night, the ball, and favourite songs night. Earthsong has changed my life. I love it. It's the best time of the year." Coby
Teenagers from 15yrs up will have an option of camping in their own area. They will have experienced co-ordinators who will support them around being responsible for running and looking after their campsite and circle, and planning their program. They are invited to participate in all of the adult workshops and will also have separate workshops in the teen space.
Teenagers are encouraged to return to their parents/guardian circles for main meal times. Teenagers staying in the teen area will have to comply with camp guidelines; failure to do so will mean they have to return to their parents/guardian camp circle. No teenagers will be allowed on site without a parent or adult guardian who will be ultimately responsible for their behaviour. The minimum age for the adult guardian is 25.
Earthsong teenagers have been amongst the strongest advocates of the camp and have shared their skills and power with an evening of drumming, which is always one of the highlights of the camp.
For Parents/Guardians of Teenagers at Earthsong
The teenage area at Earthsong is a space for teenagers to hang out. They are provided with a venue and a central fire. Teenagers can also camp in the teen area if they are 15 years or older and have permission from their parents/guardians. Please be aware that there are different age groups represented in the teen area. Workshops are held in the teen venue and members of the teen team visit them regularly. Parents are invited to do the same. Teenagers are also invited to participate in the adult programme unless stated otherwise.
For many teenagers Earthsong is an experience of great freedom and with this freedom comes responsibility. The intention of the Earthsong teen team is to create a space for teenagers to be heard and celebrated in a safe environment. This safety is held by the teen team, teenagers and their parents/guardians within the wider network.
What Earthsong expects from Teenagers:
- To comply with the Earthsong ethos regarding, curfew, drugs, alcohol, and mobile phones. This includes not leaving the field unless necessary as Earthsong is a retreat space
- To communicate with parents/guardians daily and to participate in the responsibilities of their "home" circle and the camp (Meithal, cooking...etc)
- To communicate with the teen team regarding their needs and wishes for a safe and nourishing experience at Earthsong
- To treat themselves and others with respect and love
- To be their wonderful selves!
What Earthsong expects from Parents/Guardians:
- To understand that they are responsible for their teenager(s). Consider whether they are comfortable with their teenager(s) camping in the teen area unsupervised
- To continue to maintain the boundaries they have established with their teen(s) at home during Earthsong
- To uphold the boundaries of Earthsong with their teen(s)
- To communicate with their teenager(s) daily and include them in the shared responsibilities of their circle (eg. participation in circle sharing time)
- To have a space in their circle where their teen(s) can sleep if they are asked to leave the teen area
What Earthsong expects of the Teen Team:
- To provide a rich programme of activities and workshops that engage and promote the teens' vibrancy, energy and coolness
- To enable teens to establish boundaries that meet their needs
- To provide support and hold the boundaries of Earthsong with the teens
- To be allies to the teenagers and work with them to encourage their autonomy and freedom
There will be a meeting for parents/guardians on Sunday. Please attend main meeting to make sure of time and place. Anyone who is a parent or guardian to a teen is expected to be present.
Conflict Resolution
It is the general philosophy of Earthsong camps that tent circles are self-organising and try to manage their issues themselves as much as possible. However, if conflicts arise where circles require support, the core group will be offering group facilitation as needed.

Going to Dubai? Better Know the LAWS.
IMPORTANT: If you break the law of a country you are visiting, your embassy will probably not be able to help you. So know the laws and customs before you go.
By now you might be aware that a British couple in their 30s were sentenced to three months in jail and deportation because of their "public display of affection" on the beach following a champagne brunch. Well, actually the charges were drunkenness and public indecency and sex outside of marriage. The couple claims there was no sex, just kissing.
Recently, a lesbian couple was sentenced to a month in jail, followed by deportation, for sharing a kiss on the public beach in Dubai.
Three years ago, an unmarried Indian couple was sentenced to one year in prison just for hugging and kissing in the back seat of a taxi in the Emirate of Fujairah which is north of the UAE. When the taxi driver saw what they were doing, he drove them directly to the police station!
If you're planning a trip to Dubai, remember that it is part of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The operative word here is "Arab." It might be a popular destination right now, and very glamorous (and expensive), but it is a Muslim country and their laws are very conservative.
Just because you're a tourist who is bringing money into the region, never lose sight of the fact that this is NOT an amusement park or a paid attraction. You are visiting another country with another culture, and you'd better learn their laws before you go there. (This applies to ALL international travel.)
Here are some of the laws.
Public displays of affection, including holding hands and kissing, are socially unacceptable and can lead to an arrest.
Prescription and over-the-counter medications are often considered illegal or a controlled substance. Keep your meds in their original containers and bring a letter from your doctor as a well as a copy of your prescription with you.
If you are caught with any illegal drugs, or have the presence of illegal drugs in a blood or urine test, or even have a trace amount of drugs on your clothing, on your body, or in your luggage, you could be charged with drug possession.
Don't drink and drive there either. In fact, technically you are only allowed to drink alcoholic beverages at your hotel.
Do not take pictures of the locals, especially women, without permission. And notice that many government buildings don't allow photographs. They take this very seriously.
According to the U.S. Department of State:
Americans living or traveling in the United Arab Emirates are encouraged to register with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate through the State Department's travel registration web site and to obtain updated information on travel and security within the United Arab Emirates. Americans without Internet access may register directly with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate. By registering, American citizens make it easier for the Embassy or Consulate to contact them in case of emergency.
The U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi is located at Embassies District, Plot 38, Sector W59-02, Street No. 4, P.O. Box 4009. The telephone number is (971) (2) 414-2200, and the Consular Section fax number is (971) (2) 414-2241.
The email address for American Citizens Services inquiries, including passport questions, is email@example.com. The after-hours telephone number is (971) (2) 414-2500. The Embassy Internet web site is http://uae.usembassy.gov/.
The U.S. Consulate General in Dubai is located on the 21st floor of the Dubai World Trade Center, P.O. Box 9343. The telephone number is (971) (4) 311-6000 (for after-hours emergencies, contact the Embassy at (971)(2) 414-2200 for the Dubai Duty Officer, and the Consular Section fax number is (971) (4) 311-6213.
The email address for American Citizens Services inquiries, including passport questions, is firstname.lastname@example.com. The web site for the U.S. Consulate General in Dubai is http://dubai.usconsulate.gov/.
The workweek for both the Embassy in Abu Dhabi and the Consulate General in Dubai is Sunday through Thursday.

Every nation has stupid laws. Here let's look at one of the dozens of stupid/dumb laws the UK has; "It is illegal for a lady to eat chocolates on a public conveyance.".
The US has even dumber laws like in Florida it is illegal to have sex with a porcupine, why the hell would they even instate that law in the first place? Another dumb law is flirting isn't allowed in New York City, while this isn't enforced it's still a law. Even dumber laws all around the world. I've been to most of Europe & Asia and needless to say, Dubai is one of the cleanest and safest places I've ever been. Sure, some of the laws may not make sense to you or some of the laws seem like blasphemy because you can't passionately kiss your girlfriend while drunk in the middle of a crowded place where pedestrians are bound to awkwardly watch. The laws in several US states are far dumber and almost as strict, only reason people believe it's stricter here is because the police are actually useful.

Bidding for McDavid's jersey at standstill
Bidding remains stagnant for rookie Connor McDavid's first available game-worn Erie Otters jersey Saturday, capping the first six days of auction on eBay.
The No. 97 jersey's high bid lingered at $1,625 for the fifth straight day.
There have been 31 bids placed on the jersey, which was worn during the Otters' Nov. 28 loss to Plymouth at Erie Insurance Arena. McDavid was the first overall pick in April's OHL Priority Selection and leads the all rookies in goals (17), assists (20) and points (37).
The auction ends Thursday.
