... and even gasthofs is entirely older American (english) hit songs. We even got to watch the Voice in German and every young contestant sang slightly old tunes in english - things have certainly changed!!
We got our bearings and did a walking tour of the downtown area and as far as our first two residences in Lahr. Of course we wandered by the "Horse" and have a picture for you ...
... was superb but it was getting on an we thought we would try to get to Obernai, a very quaint town some 32 km south-west. The long and the short of it was that we got there after dark and try to find a pension in the dark in a town crawling with - you guessed it - those damned tourists!!! We tried a few other nearby towns but alas gave up in frustration and headed for ...
Day 5: taking it easy and crossing the border
Its always a little awkward doing this wild camping thing. Its not officially illigal, but its definitely not somethig that parents teach their kids. When jan climbed out the tent this morning, he startled an early morning dog walker who wasnt quite sure what to make of the situation.
We packed up rather quickly after that, and breakfasted on the almighty coco-pops. Om-nom-nom! We never buy this **** at home, but on a bike tour, we can ...

Riesling. We left completely stuffed.

Sunday in Mulhouse AKA Boring Sunday
NOTHING is open! The only reason we put Mulhouse on our itinerary was the car museum. It was Andrew and Alain's dream to visit this museum, one of the largest car collections in the world. YAWN! So Andrew and Alain headed off this morning to live out their fantasies and the rest of us walked into town to find some breakfast. We ended up at the railway station where we had petit dejeuner.....breakfast. Nothing else was open. Certainly no Sunday morning cafe culture ...

Sa Ta Na Ma for New Beginnings
|Teacher:Gloria Latham
Using the Mantra of New Beginnings, Sa-Ta-Na-Ma, Kundalini Yoga Master Gloria Latham instructs a detoxifying and meditative sequence that will illuminate your inner light. Kundalini means, "hidden energy" of the spine. Yoga asana is performed to activate the movement of vital prana, the kundalini energy within, and to cleanse the body of all it's impurities. This flowing practice is sure to leave you feeling revitalized, refreshed, and empowered. Experience the freedom of letting go and grasping the possibility of new beginnings!
Contraindications: Students with low back pain, spinal injuries or shoulder injuries should be mindful when doing fast or jarring movements, and can always modify the poses by lowering their knees; students with knee injuries or discomfort in the knees can modify by folding their mats in half under their knees, or placing a blanket under their knees for extra cushion; students with knee injuries or discomfort in the knees should not do the squatting sequence, as Gloria suggests.

I did this in the morning and found it to create more tension than I need. One thing I've noticed about Gloria's style is that she continues the reps for longer than my body likes (over the course of two years following her). But I was expecting that.
What bothered me most is that the movements are the usual yoga moves but this mantra is added to all of them like a stamp. It seems like cheating. Couldn't some move symbolize new beginnings? or some softer transitions occur... Also, since the mantra was used the whole time, it would have been nice to learn what the sounds stand for. Otherwise it's really just repetitive brain washing... and no one can get their life together through that.

i really love your work and way, thank you.
, posted on February 2, 2015
I have found all of Gloria's classes to be fantastic (also brilliantly voiced). Almost like an active meditation! Incredibly strengthening, empowering and satisfying. Thank you x
, posted on February 11, 2016
Thank you for taking the time to write and share your practice with us! You can always add this practice to your Playlist on Gaia to watch again anytime.
All the best,
, posted on January 4, 2015
Wow! This was an awesome practice! I feel absolutely great! Loved the repeated mantra. The only other thing I could ask for from this practice was a better explanation of the meaning. I was shouting it with joy by the end. Thank you Gloria!
, posted on July 14, 2014
I loved this practice as part of my detox and worked up a nice sweat. I actually like Kundalini yoga, but I often find that I get cramps in my hamstrings when I do it. They aren't lasting cramps, but do you have any suggestions to avoid them? Do they go away with more practice of Kundalini?
, posted on April 22, 2013
This was my first Kundalini class and I loved it! It was nothing like I expected (I was expecting a soothing hatha class with chanting LOL) This class left me feeling energized and positive and I know I will return to it time and time again. Thank you Gloria!
, posted on January 9, 2013
I loved this class as it is perfect for the new year. One commenter said that is was too repetitive. This is a kundalini yoga class not a hatha yoga class. The repetition of movement is to get one out of the body and mind and into the spirit. When taking a ky class it is helpful to shut down your hatha yoga expectations and just go with the movements and mantras. You'll be amazed how good you'll feel.
, posted on January 5, 2013
this class was too repetitive for where I am right now. I went ahead and created my own flow as the video continued. her commentary on new beginnings, however, was a lovely addition to my practice tonight. I might revisit this some other day during the early morning hours. the repetitive movement seems ideal for energizing a tired, sleepy body.
, posted on December 22, 2012
It has been about 15 years since I have practiced Kundalini. I had forgotten just how energizing this arctics can be until today. It challenged me especially with my arms as I am sore from a TRX class that I took yesterday. But, despite my soreness, I finished the video energized in both body, mind and spirit.
, posted on December 21, 2012
All Gloria's classes are wonderful. This one in particular, I love the mantra, I keep it on my head for the rest of the day (even for the rest of the week), it gives me a big sense of peace, makes everything look more real. Thank you Gloria!
, posted on December 17, 2012
Thank you for this practice. The new beginnings theme is exactly what I needed right now. I am in the hospital with my 2 month old for the third time (going on to 3 total weeks of her short life). She is so precious and going to be okay but I am starting to learn that life will never be the same with a special needs child. I look forward to our new beginning and for us to return back to our family.
, posted on December 11, 2012
I just watched the video today because I had done the free yoga class meant for today, but the name of this class brought my attention to check it out fo tomorrrow, because tomorrow is 12-12-12, the preapration for The New Beginning for moher Earth and Human Kind ! PERFECT ! ...I wil start up my day and a NEW ERA with this yoga class, NAMASTE GLORIA !

I loved the sa ta na ma mantra, this is what makes kundalini so interesting to me...along with the breath, and repetitive movements I feel as though I can really engage my mind and body, and breath...it is also a good workout...thanks...more please!
, posted on December 6, 2012
It was difficult to go at my own rhythm in this practice with the constant "sa ta na ma" from the instructor. Perhaps a demostration of the movements with "sa ta na ma" and the rest silent so that each person can be comfortable going at their own pace without distraction.

Sorry for the lack of posting today, but I spent the afternoon in the hospital (no cause for alarm; my wife was getting checked out as she is at 40 weeks).
One of the things that grabbed my attention while at the hospital were the mezuzot (sacred parchments inscribed by hand with two portions of the Torah, which are stored in protective cases and hung on the doorposts of Jewish buildings), which looked like this:
Maybe I've been here too long, but to me they look like someone holding a Qassam rocket.

The Federal Maritime Commission said Friday it concluded its review of the proposed OCEAN Alliance, allowing the new ocean carrier alliance to take effect Monday, although it is not expected to commence operations until around April 2017.
The strong growth was largely due to an increase container trade between the port and Asia, which surged 19 percent year-over-year to 336,791 TEUs.
Scheduled to commence in March 2017, the new direct route between its hub at London Heathrow and New Orleans International Airport will be the first of its kind, the global airfreight carrier said in a statement.
Registration takes less than 1 minute.
Hyundai Merchant Marine said Thursday it will launch a new loop between Korea, China and the West Coast of North America this month.
Sources said the South Korean liner carrier will lay off about 180 members of its 500 person workforce in the United States on Friday.
Thousands of chassis in and around the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach have containers mounted on them that are either owned or leased by the now insolvent ocean carrier Hanjin Shipping.

An Oneida-based dog rescue group says it needs help to stay active.
Trooper Husky Rescue is appealing for dog food, bowls and blankets to care for the animals it rescues from puppy mills all over the country, and from other rescues that can not care for the dogs longterm.
One of those dogs, Whim, was on Weekend Today in CNY on Saturday--the pure white husky came to the area from a puppy mill, and has had surgery, twice, to correct a health problem common with her breed: her eyelashes were scratching her eyes. That's fixed, and now she's being socialized more, as she's ready for adoption.
James DeMauro, who runs the rescue, says huskies are tough to place because of their 'need to exercise' character and difficulties in socializing.
His rescue opened its doors to all dog breeds, and other pets as well, during the Oneida floods, and now it needs help in staying afloat.
Donations can be dropped off at 534 Lenox Ave in Oneida, or if you call 897-0845 they'll pick up the contribution.
897-0845 is also the number to call, for adoptions or fostering of a husky.

The shooting death earlier this year of an 18-year-old goat herder by a secret US Marine anti-drug squad in the small farming town of Redford, Texas, has sparked renewed controversy over the increasing US military presence along the Texas-Mexico border.On May 20, Ezequiel Hernandez was shot by Marines from the Joint Task Force Six (JTF-6), a military force established to crack down on illegal drug activities on the US border. The Hernandez shooting was the second on the border this year involving JTF-6 and the first fatality since the program was launched in 1989.

WEST LINN -- West Linn has a habit of uncorking devastating runs to begin basketball games this season.
The Lions' pace of play and aggression catches opponents off guard, often times leading to 8-0 or better runs. Opponents are forced into taking quick timeouts and regrouping.
On Tuesday against No. 8 Tigard, West Linn ripped off a 10-0 run.

MTV Video Music Awards 2014 Live-Blog
Welcome, friends, to HitFix's MTV Video Music Awards 2014 live-blog.
Earlier today I was watching FXX's Every Simpsons Ever Marathon and it was the "Homerpalooza" episode, which begins with Homer lamenting that he's no longer hip to the contemporary music scene.
Marge tells him not to worry.
"Record stores have always seemed crazy to me," she declares. "Music is none of my business."
Well, music is none of my business. Artists who aren't "American Idol" veterans or who haven't appeared on "American Idol" are none of my business. Actually, I take that back. I also know people who were on "X Factor," which is why I know who Fifth Harmony and Demi Lovato are.
But with HitFix's actual qualified music staffers doing breakout stories and reviews of performances, I get to do a live-blog even though I know who none of these people are.
Follow along and make fun of my musical ignorance.
But remember... Music is none of my business. MTV and I have that in common.
8:55 p.m. ET. Sorry. That's a lie. I know Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Frankie Grande's Sister and a couple other people.
9:00 p.m. We're getting started with Frankie Grande's Sister. Frankie got to "break" the "news" that she was starting the show on "Big Brother" a couple weeks ago. It was very exciting. I'm told that this is "Break Free" that she's singing. Why doesn't she get to wear one of the see-thru raincoats her dancers are wearing? Unlike the pre-show people, she actually seems to be singing live, or maybe she's just better at lip-synching than Fifth Harmony.
9:02 p.m. We transition into former "American Idol" judge Nicki Minaj's musical tribute to her ass. I wonder what it would take to actually get censored on this telecast. Apparently there are certain words you can't say, but there's no limit to the amount of booty jiggle that MTV will allow. Rita Ora seems vaguely terrified by Minaj's butt and who can blame her?
9:04 p.m. Enter Jessie J, who's rather more powerful than either of her predecessors, though I mostly remember her from that award show that she did on crutches. Ariana Grande seems impressive until she has to sing immediately after Jessie J. In this context, it's like one of these people is a showstopper and the other is a futuristic cheerleader. And then there's Minaj, who has half-changed outfits. I can't tell if maybe Minaj's new outfit was supposed to be somewhat less falling apart and she's trying desperately to keep modesty intact.
9:08 p.m. Who would have guessed the early story of tonight's VMAs would be Nicki Minaj trying NOT to expose herself to America?
9:09 p.m. MTV is making history at the New Forum tonight and Gwen Stefani and Snoop Ferret are giving away the night's first video. Up first? Best Female Video. Like everything else tonight, I assume it's going to Beyonce. The winner... Katy Perry! Whoa. Even Gwen seems shocked. "Everybody say 'Hey what's up, Juicy!'" Katy Perry says, answering my, "Who the heck is that with Katy Perry?" question. It's Juicy J. And he even gets to talk, even though this award is for FEMALE video. My co-workers are not fans of Juicy J.
9:12 p.m. Jay Pharaoh is up next and he has things to say about "Anaconda." He feels sad that Drake wasn't able to touch Nicki Minaj's butt in the video. He also wants us to know that Frankie Grande's Sister is killing it, but she looks a little young. Tee-hee. Pedophilia humor! "All I'm saying is you need to make a disclosure song," Jay says. Well that's creepy. Thanks! He's going to be back later.
9:12 p.m. In the All Access Live Control room, we have Victoria Justice. Jay Pharaoh would want you to know that she's legal.
9:20 p.m. Lorde is grateful that Taylor Swift exists. After wearing a romper on the red carpet, Taylor Swift has changed into one of her patented outfits that bare her belly, but not her naval. I'm glad I'm not a parent having to explain to their kids why Taylor Swift doesn't have a belly button. This is a fun song, but her live performance lacks the self-effacing humor of the video, which was truly Taylor Swift at her most human. This is glossier and entertaining, but it's not all about Swift's geekiness.
9:23 p.m. OK! There's the geeky Taylor coming out. I'm not gonna get into the Taylor hating that I know is rampant on the Internet. Her career is genuinely interesting to me, because she's evolved in ways that feel weirdly organic. And, unlikely Miley, she doesn't need to shock us into noticing her.
9:25 p.m. Chelsea Handler is presenting Best Male Video. "Thank you Taylor Swift for being so white," Chelsea jokes, referencing her desire not to perform after somebody with a big butt. Lord, Chelsea. Not funny. The winner... Ed Sheerhan. I tweeted this earlier, but I need all of you here to know it as well: Ed Sheerhan is Meatball from "Hart of Dixie." And no, I don't care if you get that reference.
9:27 p.m. I don't know who or what Becky G is. But I loved the moment on the pre-show red carpet where she kicked over to herself.
9:32 p.m. Jay Pharaoh comes out as Jay-Z. He does this well, but I'm not sure this is funny material he's working with. Wait. No. I'm sure. It's not funny material.
9:34 p.m. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are here to remind us that Jeff Daniels is nominated for an Emmy tomorrow. They make a joke about Jim pulling his groin that's the same groin-pulling joke that you've heard over and over in ads for "The League" during the FXX Every Simpsons Ever Marathon. Remember when Jim Carrey used to be awesome at awards shows? They're presenting Pop Video. The winner is... Frankie Grande's Sister! I hope that Jeff Daniels and Jim Carrey know that she's legal. She's very excited and chirpy and legal.
9:37 p.m. Kim Kardashian West wants you to know that she's not just about her butt. She's introducing Sam Smith. Apparently they're friends, but I feel like Sam Smith may have deserved somebody more substantive introducing him. I'm OK with Sam Smith, but I don't understand why Robbie Williams has spent 20-something years trying to break in the United States and Sam Smith did it in one shot. [I tweeted this and it turns out that Sam Smith fans are REALLY defensive. Apologies.]
9:46 p.m. It's "Hell on Wheels" star Common! And he's keeping things serious by reminding the audience about Ferguson. "Hip hop has always been about truth and has been a powerful instrument of social change," he says. He leads a moment of silence for Mike Brown. He's presenting Best Hip Hop Video. Your winner? Absent "DeGrassi" veteran Drake.
9:53 pm. Now Jay Pharaoh is pretending to be Kanye West. I love how when things aren't funny, you can cut over to the Kardashians and they'll be laughing at everything. "My videos cure ALS, y'all," he says. Oddly, the only time they AREN'T cutting to Kim Kardashian is when Fake Kanye is joking about her. "I just want to say my wife is the smartest person on the planet," he says. And... No cutaway to Kim.
9:56 p.m. YAY! It's Uzo Aduba, Taylor Schilling and Laverne Cox. WOOT. "The ladies in prison would love this next performer," Cox says, as they introduce Usher and Nicki Minaj. I was promised Nicki Minaj. None of these people is Nicki Minaj.
10 p.m. There's Nicki Minaj! She's fully clothed and saying a lot of words you can't say on MTV. I like the part where Usher leans down and rams his shoulder into Nicki Minaj's butt, just in case we hadn't noticed.
10:06 p.m. "The Vampire Diaries" star Nina Dobrev and somebody who I'm not looking at are presenting Rock Video. The tool with Nina Dobrev makes a joke about backdoor action and then references his grandmother's birthday. Lorde wins for a song that I wouldn't have guessed was a rock song. "Is there like a specific place I'm supposed to be looking?" Lorde asks. She thanks the people who voted and swears a little.
10:14 p.m. Chloe Grace-Mortez and Dylan O'Brien are here to present the next performance and Jay Pharaoh is researching and he's learning that Chloe is NOT legal. It's 5 Seconds of Summer, a band I'd never heard of before the pre-show.
10:23 p.m. Jay Pharaoh is back. He's got no patter, but he's presenting the Artist to Watch award. The winner 5th Harmony. Win one for "X Factor," eh? Meanwhile, Melanie Amaro's album still hasn't come out. And Simon Cowell does, indeed, get thanks!
10:27 p.m. And now, an awkwardly wedged-in brief musical tribute to Robin Williams.
10:31 p.m. Is it just me or has this telecast become 75 percent commercials at this point?
10:32 p.m. J-Lo is remarkable.
10:32 p.m. J-Lo is introducing an artist I'm told is Iggy Azalea, who will be accompanied by the only slightly distinguishable Rita Ora. Thanks to J-Lo, I know this song will be called "Black Widow." If it ever begins. Oh my. I want "Taylor Swift Dancing Cam" as picture-in-picture on EVER show I watch. Nope. I don't get Iggy Azalea. I'm not sure what she's even doing. But Jordin Sparks and Taylor Swift are very pleased.
10:40 p.m. Can't stop staring at Demi Lovato.
10:41 p.m. Maroon 5 is performing outside. When did Maroon 5 just become a Police cover band? I mean... I love the Police, but surely Sting has to get royalties for this? Also, they're totally playing in front of the Miami Marlins' "M." Get your own font, Levine.
10:45 p.m. TV's Jimmy Fallon is presenting Video of the Year, which he precedes with a cutaway to the Hug Cam, which is the first genuine laugh I've had all show. Then it's the High Five cam. Lorde and Taylor Swift High Five awkwardly, but sweetly.
10:46 p.m. The Video of the Year winner is... Miley Cyrus for "Wrecking Ball." Well, that's a nice celebration of Terry Richardson. Miley sends a guy named Jesse onto the stage with a speech about homeless youth. He instructs us to go to Miley's Facebook page to make a difference. Miley is crying tears at her statement. And now... discordantly... Back to Maroon 5.
10:53 p.m. I want Beyonce. NOW.
10:54 p.m. BEYONCE! Scary Albino Mannequin People! Strobe Lights! I feel like Beyonce has a pretty clear statement directed at the myriad pop stars who have been trying to draw attention to their rear ends tonight.
11 p.m. I kinda wish this show was just the opening number and then Beyonce.
11:04 p.m. Blue Ivy in the house.
11:05 p.m. Like at this point, the song is nothing but Beyonce pointing to her read and saying, "Do you wanna touch it."
11:06 p.m. How about letting Beyonce perform a SONG, eh? This is just a dance medley with musical snippets. They did the same thing with Justin Timberlake last year, or whenever that was.
11:07 p.m. Nice shot fired by Beyonce across the bow of the We Don't Need Feminism ninnies.
11:09 p.m. And now, Beyonce's home movies!
11:10 p.m. Beyonce seems to close with a touching tribute to Blue Ivy, but rather than ending the show with Jay-Z holding up his daughter, "Lion King"-style, Beyonce just goes into her next song.
11:12 p.m. Is that it for the show? Jay-Z bring Blue Ivy onto the stage and presents her to Beyonce, along with her Vanguard Award. "I just thank God for this moment. I love y'all so much," Beyonce says, closing with "Good night."
11:14 p.m. And that's that.
What'd you like tonight? What'd you hate?

More and more indebted Australians are turning to debt agreements as an alternative to filing for bankruptcy - but consumer credit rating experts warn it's not an easy way out
Brokers are being urged to come together to protest the 'unfair' practice of clawbacks
Dwelling values are likely to have remained relatively unchanged in the three months to November, says RP Data senior research manager, Cameron Kusher, ahead of Monday's home value index results announcement.
Kusher says that, in the past three months, house values in the five largest capital cities are likely to have increased by around 0.6%.
"Based on the month-to-date data, each of the five major capitals, except for Melbourne, is set to record a modest increase in value throughout the month."
The latest data, according to Kusher, reinforces the idea that Australia's housing market – at least at a macro level – is moving past the correction phase, which saw values fall by 7.5% between the end of October, 2010 and the end of May, 2012.
"The improvement in the market conditions can be attributed to interest rate settings and the prospect of a low interest rate environment over the medium term."
Kusher says housing market conditions aren't likely to be a major focus area at the Reserve Bank Board meeting next Tuesday.
"The RBA is likely to be fairly comfortable with the modest increase in home values over recent months as well as the increase in dwelling approvals and will be hoping that current interest rates settings, or any changes they choose to make, will allow the housing market to continue on a path of modest growth."

John Henton draws on his own life for his stand-up comedy, even using the accident that left him a mangled mess last fall.
"A mini-coma is very restful," Henton said. "I can't recommend it because you have to go through some stuff to end up in one. But I woke up very refreshed."
Not that the 40-year-old actor-comedian laughs off how he got into the accident.
"I was drunk," he said.
Henton, a Cleveland native who now has a home in Bainbridge, Ohio, found it hard to admit that. And no wonder. When we've talked over the years, especially about his roles on the sitcoms "Living Single" and "The Hughleys," Henton has consistently come across as someone who is practical about his life and work.
After mentioning that he and "Hughleys" star D.L. Hughley might do some stand-up dates together this fall, Henton was asked whether that made him a "king of comedy" - as Hughley had been proclaimed on a successful tour.
"I'm not a king," he said. "I'm just a pawn in this game. But I'm a funny pawn."
Seemingly comfortable with himself, Henton seems not to know the guy who started drinking hard at a Hollywood party last September.
He should have been feeling good. "The Hughleys" was back in production, rescued by UPN after being canceled by ABC. And he had returned to the show well rested.
"Last summer was the first summer I took off," he said. "I only did two or three gigs. It was beautiful. I did nothing. I sat at my house and looked at the lake."
He cannot remember why things took the turn they did.
"I went to a party, and that is where my memory checked out," he said.
He has had to reconstruct from others' accounts what happened.
How he was so drunk, a limo driver offered him a ride home - which Henton refused.
How he somehow hooked up the seat belt that probably saved his life.
Or how he clipped another car, hitting his head on the steering wheel of his Acura NSX and crashing into a wall.
The crash broke both his legs and 11 of his teeth, he said. His eye sockets shattered. As doctors began reconstructing his face, Henton's publicist had to fetch a photograph so they would know what he looked like.
"It's a blessing they got me back together," he said. And he quickly went back to getting himself together.
Six weeks after the accident, he was back at work on "The Hughleys." Camera angles hid the walking casts on his legs.
Eight months on, he is trying to focus on his stand-up act.
He warned that his act is not nearly as family-friendly as "The Hughleys."
"No children, please," he said. "My act is not rated X. But there are certain words I use for emphasizing points. And I have a lot of points to make."
Not that the accident is all behind him. He still has to attend a Mothers Against Drunk Driving class, he said, and he must perform 30 days of community service, which may find him picking up trash along California highways.
He's also facing some more repairs on his face. And even where he's healed, he gets reminded of what he did to himself.
"I was in Cleveland a couple of weeks back, and it was raining. My whole body was aching. "It was so stupid, man," he said of that September night. "What was I thinking?"

Skip to comments.A Paradigm Shift in Parenting
Posted on 11/30/2004 2:28:45 PM PST by Lorianne
Mary Eberstadts Home Alone America: The Hidden Toll of Day Care, Behavioral Drugs. and Other Parent Substitutes is a culture-changing book. But dont take my word for it. Listen to The Economist: Eberstadts passionate attack on the damage caused by the absence of parents suggests that we may be approaching some sort of turning point in social attitudes, where assumptions about family life and maternal employment start to change. It has happened before it could happen again.
Rich Lowry has already done a great job of recounting some of the core claims of Home Alone America. I want to talk about what makes this book so powerful over and above its important arguments about day care, behavioral drugs, teen sex, specialty boarding schools, etc.
From the very first page of the book, were in a different world. Eberstadt begins with a gentle pledge to break our social taboo on attending to the effects of working motherhood on children. And Eberstadt keeps her promise so much so that she needs to create a new word, separationist, for a certain kind of feminist. (The London Times is now touting Eberstadts separationist coinage as the latest hot buzzword.) Instead of talking about feminism, which gets us debating how to balance the interests of women against the interests of men, Eberstadt talks about separationism, which gets us debating how to balance the interests of children and adults. What we usually call divorce, Eberstadt calls the absent father problem. Eberstadts language sends a powerful message: Its not about adults. Its about what separates or unites adults and children, and what that means for them both
NO REACTIONARY Not that Eberstadt is calling for a return for the 50s. Eberstadt doesnt demand a ban on divorce, nor does she call on women to stop working outside the home. But Eberstadt does ask us to balance the needs of parents and children in a fundamentally new way. Decisions about divorce and working motherhood can only be made by individual parents. But to strike the right balance between the needs of children and adults, parents need to break the taboo set up by separationist feminists the taboo on looking at the real costs and consequences of parent-child separation.
When Eberstadt considers our current way of balancing work and family, she doesnt see a well-established and smoothly functioning social system. Instead she sees an ongoing, massive, and historically unprecedented experiment in family-child separation. An unresolved experiment thats how Eberstadt understands our societys way of rearing its children. And shes right. Weve barely begun to look at the real effects of the profound social changes that followed in the wake of the 60s. Thats why Home Alone America is not another book about the stresses and trials of working mothers or divorced parents. Above all, Home Alone America is a book about children.
RAISING THE MORAL BAR A number of thoughtful observers have pointed out that, for all our wealth and technology, Americans dont seem to be any happier nowadays than we were in the past. Eberstadt thinks she knows why. Life is better for American adults, who are financially, legally, and morally freer than theyve ever been. But life is not better for American children, says Eberstadt, no matter how much more pocket money they have for the vending machines, and no matter how nice it is that Dads new wife gave them their own weekend bedroom in his new place. In fact, its actually wealthier children who are more likely to labor under some of the disabilities of our new family dispensation. According to Eberstadt, well-to-do children come home more often to neighborhoods so emptied of adults (and therefore unsafe for outdoor play) that they simply throw the deadbolt and get no exercise more strenuous than walking from the video game to the refrigerator.
Eberstadts chapter on day care is a great example of what makes this book so interesting. While Eberstadt does bring some important new information to bear on the day-care debate (check out her discussion of biting), the real originality lies in her point of view. For example, even the most separationist feminists concede that children in day care are more likely to get sick. The interesting thing is the difference between what the separationists and Eberstadt do with that fact.
Eberstadt lays out the creepy rationalizations given by Susan Faludi and her colleagues for the high rate of day-care-borne infections: [Children] soon build up immunities; theyre hardier when they are older. Then Eberstadt lowers the boom: Now step back from this discussion for a moment and ask yourself: If we were talking about anything but day care here, would anyone be caught cheering for the idea that some little children get sick twice as often as others?
Eberstadts discussion of day care manages to shift the moral stakes of the debate. She turns the issue away from the long-term effects of day care and onto the immediate unhappiness that many children suffer when put in day care for too long. Feminists who champion the benefits of parent-child separation have set the moral bar far too low. Essentially, says Eberstadt, the feminist position amounts to: If it doesnt lead to Columbine, bring it on. Eberstadt wants to raise that moral bar.
WHOS PROBLEM? Consider the way Eberstadt transforms the work of Harvard professor Jody Heymann. Writing from the adult point of view, Heymann talks about how difficult it is for parents to balance the intense demands of work and child-rearing. Sometimes, when its impossible to miss a day of work, even a child with a fever has to be deposited in day care (against the rules). Concentrating on the childs point of view, Eberstadt stresses that this not only spreads disease, but prevents day-care workers saddled with a sick child from attending to the well ones. Whereas Heymann calls for more and better government-funded day care, Eberstadt shows that this is unlikely to solve the underlying problem.
But the real question is, Whos problem are we talking about? Up until now, public discussion of issues like day care has been dominated by feminist journalists and academics who take their own career decisions for granted and call on society to make their lives easier: How can I be equal to a man if society wont give me better day care? Eberstadt strides into this situation and asks a totally different series of questions: Are children any happier in day care than they are with their mothers? If not, should that effect a womans career decisions? Are unhappy children who bite and get aggressive or ill in day care growing tougher, stronger, and more ruggedly individualist, or is it we adults who are being coarsened to needs of our children? Although Im inclined to believe the latter, the important point is that until now, the choice between these two points of view hasnt even been posed. The separationists whove controlled the public debate up to now have excluded Eberstadts sort of questions altogether. Thats why this book is so impressive and important. Over and above the statistical issues, on just about every page, Eberstadt breaks a taboo, shifts a perspective, and forces us to look at the lives of children in new and more vivid ways.
DEFINING DEVIANCY One of the cleverest reversals in the book comes in the chapter on childrens mental health. Increasingly, were medicating children for mental illnesses that barely existed in the past. Take separation anxiety disorder (SAD), defined as developmentally inappropriate and excessive anxiety concerning separation from home or from those to whom the individual is attached. This syndrome is now said to affect about 10 percent of the nations children. One of its symptoms is refusal to attend classes or difficulty remaining in school for an entire day in other words, what used to be called truancy.
Are 10 percent of the nations children really in need of treatment for SAD, or are most of these children actually behaving more normally than mothers who have little trouble parting from their children for most of the day? Is it surprising that children get SAD in the absence of their parents? As Eberstadt suggests, maybe we need to define a whole new range of disorders: There is no mental disorder...called, say, preoccupied parent disorder, to pathologize a mother or father too distracted to read Winnie the Pooh for the fourth time or to stay up on Saturday night waiting for a teenager to come home from the movies. Nor will one find divorced second-family father disorder, even though the latter might explain what we could call the developmentally inappropriate behaviors of certain fathers, such as failure to pay child support or to show up for certain important events. There is also nothing...like separation non-anxiety disorder to pathologize parents who can separate for long stretches from their children without a pang.
TOWARD A NEW SOCIAL CONSENSUS Despite her playfully brilliant reversal of our questionable tendency to pathologize children who miss their parents, Eberstadt does not in the end reverse the pathological finger-pointing. Eberstadt clearly acknowledges that some mothers have no choice but to work and that some marriages suffer from gross abuse. She knows that the pressures and constraints on parents today are many, and often severe. Yet Eberstadt makes a passionate and persuasive case that, when it comes to the welfare of children, we have fallen out of balance. We may not want or need to return to the 50s, but that cannot and should not mean that anything goes. The traditional family is not infinitely flexible, and changes do have consequences. Despite its real benefits, our new-found individualism has been pushed too far. Thats because we have taken our eyes off or because separationist ideologues have forcibly shifted our eyes away from the consequences of our actions for our children.
So what does Eberstadt want? Quite simply, she wants a change of heart a new social consensus: It would be better for both children and adults if more American parents were with their kids more of the time....it would be better if more mothers with a genuine choice in the matter did stay home and/or work part-time rather than full time and if more parents entertaining separation or divorce did stay together for the sake of the kids. This new consensus may be difficult to achieve. Yet it is easy to understand, and it would not demand a wholesale reversion to the pre-60s era.
Ive tried to give just a taste of what Home Alone America has to offer. The battle will rage over the statistics, the causal arrows, and such. But the power and originality of this book go way beyond all that. Its strength comes out on every page, as Eberstadt casts aside orthodoxies and forces us to look at ourselves and our children with new eyes. (And I havent even talked about the music chapter, my favorite.) I cant pretend neutrality, since I was privileged to see Home Alone America in manuscript, and am thanked by the author for my comments. Im honored by that mention, because I agree with The Economist that this book has the potential to change the way our society thinks about the family. In the same way we now look back to the Dan Quayle Was Right article as a transformative moment in our family debates, we may someday look back on the publication of Home Alone America. Well be the richer for it if we do as you will be if you read this wonderful book.
Thank you for posting this.
My thinking is that the feminist movement really did not accomplish a whole lot. Men simply got women into the workforce on their terms, and got to pay for abortions and write checks for child support instead of taking real responsibility for the children they produce. It's a great deal for men, but it still stinks for women. We have "choice," but if we decide to have the children, we only have lousy choices - quit working and give up our rewarding careers, or have our kids raised by strangers. Nothing about the workplace has changed to accommodate families with children. Feminists were so afraid of women's futures being tied to their children (which would undercut the arguments for legal abortion on demand) that they failed to push for such changes. So women have not really been liberated at all, and children have been hurt.
A real feminist movement would be agitating for more flextime, telecommuting, and job-sharing for women, and for all-day schooling for kids. And for more restrictions on divorce.
It isn't just the feminist movement. The cost of living forces families to work multiple jobs to handle all the bills. And that doesn't always work either.
Dads need to think more about the kids as well. I know too many dads who are lawyers and executives working 60- and 70-hour weeks and never see their kids except to tuck them in bed once in a while. They can afford for the moms not to work, but they are in effect single moms and the kids suffer from not having real dads.
You are right. Our tax policies have forced too many moms to work and too many dads to work more than one job or a job with long hours. Our culture encourages consumption and spoiling of children with too many things that parents feel they have to pay for. Many parents have to work to afford private school because the public schools are so bad. There are many things we could do as a society to help parents be able to spend more time with their kids.
Interesting post. I wonder what the author's attitude is concerning sending children to Pre-K? I have some real misgivings about the Pre-K concept, but some school administrators swear by the improved results in reading, etc that you see in children who attend Pre-K.
My wife was laid off from her job in June '03 and it was the best thing to happen to us. Money is tight but she would have never quit without being forced. As a result, my two- and four-year-old daughters have had their mommy around for nearly a year and a half. Not every day is a good day, but our family is better off emotionally (if not yet financially).
quote from a response in this thread
"The cost of living forces families to work multiple jobs to handle all the bills"
um... If most people actually added up the cost of their wives jobs, including everything from work clothes, to gas, to day care, to the higher income tax bracket that the extra job puts them into ...
Most would realize they are working for nearly nothing, and are cheating their children and themselves of the most important moments in life.
That said, I will look for this book. It seems to make many important points and is long overdue in the national debate.
Actually the math you describe only applies to people living above their means and well above the poverty line. For two earner families in the lower income brackets, both jobs are important.
Also, it is the lower income worker, not necessarily the female parent, who's income is going to pay for the cost of working in the first place.
"We have "choice," but if we decide to have the children, we only have lousy choices - quit working and give up our rewarding careers, or have our kids raised by strangers"
Real choice: Don't have kids with the above thoughts....
"Our culture encourages consumption and spoiling of children"
Remember key word: NO!
Don't blame this on the feminists.
Back in the 50s labor saving devices meant that men could have hot meals, clean clothes, and a neat place without needing a wife. In fact if you look at 50s and early 60s books, movies, and tv, the stay at home bourgeous wife was often depicted as a materialistic castrating parasite who spent her husband's paycheck on status symbols and did nothing but watch soaps, gossip on the phone, and do her nails. The labor of a stay at home wife was unnecessary so she wasn't worth her keep. More and more men preferred to avoid marriage, creating a new class of single urban "swingers". "Playboy", Thunderbirds, pony cars, and the whole double martini Rat Pack lifestyle were created for this new market full of disposable income.
When the sexual revolution and no fault divorce hit, men were free, free to dump their deadweight Bettys and Janets and go chasing after Julies and Jennifers. Feminism didn't kill the 50s marriage. Men killed it because it no longer served their interests to be a woman's lifetime meal ticket, particularly a woman they no longer wanted. Feminism was the logical response. The media at the time was full of horror stories about Bettys and Janets who after divorce and community property split were now expected to support themselves at age 50 without any marketable job skills. Younger women saw this and determined never to have their socioeconomic survival dependent on any man's hormones. The only way to always have marketable job skills is to never stop working.
This has nothing to do with taxes.
The advent of the two income family coincided with the explosion of the cost of the nice house in the suburbs with the good school district as middle class whites poured out of cities in the 70's. That house costs two paychecks. Period.
Sorry to hear about your mom being miserable. My Mother wasn't and she was a stay at home mom. As a stay at home mom who gave up a "rewarding career" I am offended that you call it a lousy choice. I find it even more rewarding (although just as stressful at times) than my former job. And I really don't like it when other women ask, "do you have a degree?" as if being a stay at home mom is only the choice of an uneducated dope. I have a degree in computer and information science. I made a choice to stay at home and raise my kids.
We don't have new vehicles, fancy clothes, or expensive vacations but we have a very close family that I wouldn't change for the world.
Most pre-k situations are only for people living below or at the poverty level (at least in Texas). I would venture a guess that most of the children in non-disadvantaged homes do not need pre-k at all. It is designed for the children who will probably not get what they need from their parents.
For those families well above the poverty line the second earner has the potential to earn far more than the cost of working. For those lower income families the cost of the second income is proportionately higher.
Our tax policies have forced too many moms to work and too many dads to work more than one job or a job with long hours. Our culture encourages consumption and spoiling of children with too many things that parents feel they have to pay for. Many parents have to work to afford private school because the public schools are so bad. There are many things we could do as a society to help parents be able to spend more time with their kids.
>>>I have some real misgivings about the Pre-K concept, but some school administrators swear by the improved results in reading, etc that you see in children who attend Pre-K.
Of course the school administrators swear by it. They get more money for their salaries and the parents still have to subsidize for school supplies.
I agree with the tax burden. That was included with my cost of living. I have no idea what you mean by the desire to consume though.
I work from the home so I can be with my children and my husband is struggling with two jobs plus moonlights. Not everyday is a good day either.
When we sit down to do our taxes every year, we NET about half our gross. There is no possible way to put more hours in.
um... If most people actually added up the cost of their wives jobs, including everything from work clothes, to gas, to day care, to the higher income tax bracket that the extra job puts them into ...
Most would realize they are working for nearly nothing, and are cheating their children and themselves of the most important moments in life.
Bumping Lorianne! Thank you. You lent that more time then I did.
Great points, on both of your posts above. I would disagree that the new way is better for men, just better for adolescent, hedonistic, physically mature adolescent males.
My wife is due in March and will have the first 6 months off before she needs to head back to work. I hate the thought of a 6 month old in day care.
Good points.
Whatever the merits of the various arguments, this is definitely a debate this society needs to have. We have entirely too many human beings reaching adulthood in a feral state. The time to tone down the savagery is when they're young. About all you can do with adult savages is lock them up.
My daughter didn't go to pre-K. She started school in Kindergarten.
She's now 10, in 5th grade and brilliant, of course (as many Freepers can attest as I've recounted her comments during the debates and conventions).
Bump for later read
As a divorced father whose wife divorced him to go shack up with a loser, AND who stole his son from him, AND as a man who pays child support of over $880 a month and only sees his child FOUR days a month, AND who has been fighting in court for years for custody, let me say this:
You are totally clueless, ignorant and divorced from reality. Your comments are insulting to the tens of thousands of men in my situation. YOU are part of the problem by perpetuating the ignorance and corruption of the "domestic courts". Do a little research before shooting off your mouth.
That's compared to children who sit in front of the TV, whose parents never read to them, and who haven't even learned their colors or to count before beginning kindergarten.
The children in our family all knew their colors and could count to 10 by the time they were about 2 years old, most were reading by kindergarten, and they also knew shapes, letters, etc.
If you spend time with your children, they don't need Pre-K.
Only holds true for spouses with mcjobs. $10hr and under. Doesn't hold true at all for professional couples where both make a decent wage.
People don't want to pay their own way through life -- they want everyone else to pay more and more. The name of the game is to be a bigger leacher than leachee.
If you read to your own children, you don't need a Pre-school teacher to do it.
The young parents, both liberals, decided that the wife would quit her job and be a full time mother...
The jist of the article was that they could do it on his salary alone by watching every cent they spent. She gave up her car and drove his. He took the bus to work. She gave up all the fancy clothes that she had needed for work. etc. etc. It was a three page story of what we really don't need and how people live outside their budget just to keep up with the Jones's.
I'm certainly not going to support a school district offering all-day schooling. Our kids are in school long enough as it is. Nor do I want to pay the tax increases necessary to fund it.
How is "all day schooling" any different from state-funded daycare, only this time for older children as well?
It's the taxes. Meanwhile, we *pay* an Earned Income Tax credit to families with less income.
parenting ping
I married late, a man with two troubled children. Their birthmother and eldest sibling, a sister had been killed in a car accident that the two boys were in with them. Before that, the mother had divorced the father. All three of them when I married into this family were walking wounded.
There was absolutely no way I was going to go to work with this much trauma to deal with.
And it has paid off.
I don't regret it. It was the right thing to do. I may never be a tenured professor, but I will pass on to the world two people who are much less scarred and wounded than they would be. And who knows what will happen next?
Our future depends on how we treat our youth. And honestly, America has been doing a semi-to-very-shabby job of it the last twenty years or so.
"Men simply got women into the workforce on their terms, and got to pay for abortions and write checks for child support instead of taking real responsibility for the children they produce. It's a great deal for men, but it still stinks for women. We have "choice," but if we decide to have the children, we only have lousy choices - quit working and give up our rewarding careers, or have our kids raised by strangers."
Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, there, Ms. Steinem. You make it sound like feminism was some victory for men. Most men pre-feminism, I know, would have PREFERRED their kids to be raised by a parent--the wife--at home. And most men TODAY would probably prefer a parent stay home, if we could get them to admit it for fear of being strung up by hordes of hairy-legged NOW hags. Seventy-five percent of married men say that, in choosing a wife, they specifically look for someone who would be a good mother.
The divorce rate tends to be higher in those countries where women are most apt to work at paid jobs. You think this is because MEN want women to work and women don't? But...but I thought feminism was about WOMEN wanting to be able to have a career! You already admit that you hate the idea you might have to "quit working and give up [y]our rewarding career..."
So, if you feel that way, why is your husband about to get a job? Because you want more income as a family. You CHOOSE that over having a stay-at-home parent there. Most women I know would be furious about their husband staying at home, because they're the ones that should 'get to,' and I would bet money that you have agitated for him getting that job.
No, it is WOMEN who perpetuate the current system by preferring freedom and income over commitment and childcare! Now, career women just want someone else to pay for it, so y'all can make that choice without any repercussions--because flextime and telecommuting, and job-sharing and all-day schooling for kids COST MONEY. Money you don't want to spend YOURSELF, but ON yourself.
Screw that. Pay your own freight. I shouldn't have to subsidize your industry OR your fecundity.
BUMP to reality.
Amen, Brother!!

Lulu Patch Notes
New Skins in the Store
Lulu, the Fae Sorceress
omg Janna OP
So why exactly are they buffing the exact reason why Sona is such a strong harass support? :py14:
Shyvana W nerf disguised as "bug fix."
I mad.
I like the way the map scrolling does now. It's so smooooth~
And I like the small Orianna update with the new targeting system :)
The more awesome change was the retiming of Soraka's animation. She doesn't pause stupidly when starcalling anymore, so it's easier to kite and chase. :)
Also played some Lulu. She's sooo fun, and her Ulti is just broken--flat HP, not affected by Ignite + knockup & slow aura. I played with my friend on Skarner, and speed boost + Skarner ult + Lulu ult = They're not getting away lol. And he can even run into the whole enemy team because the knockup disrupts in time for him to grab someone, and the slow keeps everyone away while your team eats the poor guy that Skarner pulled in. :py55: Will play more, but for now, she seems OP. *gets ready for future nerfs* T-T
or Malphite instead of Wukong
It's wonderful to see the support line up increased. Do want more aggressive supports.
Oh God.
I honestly don't see how Lulu is a support champ lmao.
I can see it maybe late game when she's weak, but early game she kills everything :(
Lulu has alot of utility, and I mean alot. She's Janna 2.0 in a way, great harass, good slow, cc, speed boost, shield+boosted damage, especially if the target has high aspd, and a giant burst of health/aoe knock-up/back and aoe aura slow. I think she'll be great with an aggressive AD Carry, like MF, Ez, Trist, and maybe Vayne.
Those are just my thoughts at least, when I get to play with her as my support, my views will probably change. It's still just a breath of fresh air to get a new, support styled champion.
I've only played one normal game where I used Lulusupport. My friend was using Corki and we were against Graves and support Kayle (LOL). *ahem* Anyway, I pretty much went Janna mode in the laning phase and shielded Corki whenever I foresaw a poke war (i.e. Graves quickdrawbuckshot) and it worked out really well for us since we took minimal damage.
My main issue was getting used to Lulu's poke potential. Whenever I got close enough to Kayle, I would unload all my spells on her, poly, glitter, pix (mostly self shield), and auto-attack, and that does a lot of damage!! Especially since they can't retaliate in squirrel form.
Her main weakness (if you can even call it that) is lack of heal, but Janna has no heal either and she still does amazing in lane. Land the glitters for Lulu, and she's an amazing and easy-to-play support.
Played Lulu a few games and I have to say she's harder than any other support I've played.
Q: Weird skill shot, and skill shots are obviously hard to hit with anyway.
W: You gotta make the decision, speed buff or disable, and then you gotta decide WHO to disable.
E: Save for shielding, or use for harassing?
R: Should I use it on the off tank who's in the middle of the entire enemy team to give him tankiness + AoE knockup or should I save it for the carry in case they're in danger, and WHICH carry?
So much decisions to make all the time
and then it's pretty annoying how using E on your carry, will make your passive steal their CS lol.
Q: Skillshot, like you said. What can you do?
W: I mean, I would probably always slap it on the carry or the most fed enemy. The AP buff is only useful for AP casters and they don't really need the speed buff, and by slapping it on the enemy carry it prevents them from fighting for 1.5 seconds, which is nice.
E: If it's a defensive lane where neither side is actively poking, I'd probably use it to poke some. Otherwise I'd just slap it on the carry.
R: Slap it on whoever is initiating once they're in. I feel as if putting it on the carry just makes them.... obviously a larger target.
I also don't really use the E to harass. If I wanted to harass, I'd probably shield myself and auto-attack + W Q and walk away with minimal damage taken. :P
What's your preferred skilling order though? I like ranking the shield first. Like R > E > W > Q <--just for the slow.
R > E > W > Q is probably the best way to go support wise.
E gives great sustain, and is a on-target harass (and supports your auto attack harass), whereas Q is a skill shot, pushes minions and doesn't even do that much damage anyway.
and obviously leveling W makes it scale in so many different ways (more AP, more disable duration, less CD), obviously AP is not useful on your AD carry lanemate and the duration increase is minor when trading blows in lane compared to in mid-game team fights.

Ordered these in black patent leather, returned them ONLY because I wanted a flat suede leather look which they also do carry.
