An early goal of British imperialists in India was to create a class of local elites in their own image. They would be, wrote Thomas Macaulay, 'interpreters between us and the millions whom we govern; a class of persons Indian in blood and colour, but English in tastes, in opinions, in morals and in intellect.' An elite class did emerge, not surprisingly from the socially dominant upper-caste Hindus of urban India.
As early as 1873, the social reformer Jotirao Phule had criticized the early colonial model of 'high class education' for creating a 'virtual monopoly of all higher offices … by the Brahmins.'[1] These elites, chin-deep in caste identities, saw themselves as innately superior to other Indians, mirroring the class- and race-based prejudices of the British. No wonder they got along so well. In fact, the Orientalists, armed with new theories about the origins of Sanskrit and the influx of light-skinned people into the Subcontinent, saw these caste elites as their long separated Aryan brethren. The latter, only too glad with this association, soon emerged as native informants and collaborators in interpreting 'Indian' society and culture, and in shaping a historiography that selectively glorified its past and framed it as largely 'tolerant', 'spiritual', and 'nonviolent', except when rudely disrupted by Muslim invaders.
Later, when these elites opposed the British, they used the same language of political rights and liberalism that the Europeans preached at home but didn't practice in their colonies. It was this class, led by Anglicized lawyers and bureaucrats, that succeeded the British. In the first Indian parliament in 1952, Brahmins, who comprise less than 5 percent of the population, cornered almost 25 percent of the directly elected seats; altogether the upper castes, about 20 percent of the population, claimed over 85 percent of the seats.[2]
In a representative democracy, the idea of 'representation' implies that an upper-caste Hindu man can fairly represent the interests of the lower castes, minorities, and women. But one can persuasively argue that this did not happen in the early decades of the Indian republic. Deep disparities along caste lines remained; religious minorities grew alienated and even declined socioeconomically; women remained marginal as before. India was effectively a democracy of the few, by the few, for the few.
Since the 1970s, India has seen the rise of caste-based politics. Built on the idea that only a member of your own (or proximate) caste can represent your interests, its primary driver was the failure of upper-caste politicians to represent the lower castes, and the latter realizing the power of their vote. Votes began fragmenting along caste lines, not the least because—besides being central to one's social identity—caste shaped one's share of opportunity, deprivation, and discrimination in life.
When the lower castes began mobilizing and putting up their own candidates, the elites grew anxious and began decrying the rise of caste-based politics and 'vote banks'. 'So regressive!' they complained, 'a betrayal of the spirit and ideals of democracy!' But of course, with hardly an egalitarian bone in their bodies, they had played a rigged game all along, starting with language itself. 'Vote banks' were others, created by the new 'caste-based parties'; the elites didn't see the upper castes as a 'vote bank' even when they largely voted for upper-caste parties like Congress and BJP. Above all, their anxiety came from a visceral fear—fear of the 'impure' masses, fear of losing their privileges, fear of being overrun by the boors. In no area is this anxiety more evident than in the debate on caste-based affirmative action, aka reservations, in public sector jobs and college admissions.
Writing in The Wretched of the Earth (1961), Franz Fanon lamented 'the unpreparedness of the elite, the lack of practical ties between them and the masses, their apathy, and, yes, their cowardice at the crucial moment in the struggle.' These elites, he wrote, 'simultaneously resisted the insidious agenda of colonialism and paved the way for the emergence of the current struggles.'
Fanon had in mind the post-colonial elites of North Africa, but his remark is no less apt for the Indians. India needed a real program of socioeconomic justice—via, say, land reform, universal education, and fighting caste discrimination. What legislation the elites did pass they didn't push far enough. Instead, they consolidated their domination over politics, the economy, education, cultural institutions, and the media—for instance, the richest 10 percent monopolize more land now than in 1951.[3] Having done quite well for itself, self-congratulation has come easy to this class. In an attempt to restore some balance, this insider, dear reader, will now relate to you its benightedness.
Walk into a relatively nice neighborhood in, say, Ahmedabad, Pune, or Jaipur, perhaps one of the burgeoning gated communities of flats owned by professionals, public sector officials, and businessmen. This demographic will usually speak English, represent under 10 percent of the population but command far greater power in public life. Notice that nearly all mailboxes have upper-caste names. The average man here might profess to be modern and secular, but don't be fooled. His is an incipient modernity, without deep roots—more about clothes, gadgets, nuclear family, educating girls, and fewer food taboos. His idea of the individual, each with an equal human dignity, is terribly weak. Nor does he subscribe to the dignity of labor. If he lives in a walled high-rise complex, he would be at peace with its separate elevator for those not of his social class. Indeed, he would recoil at the very idea of inviting his sweeper to sit on his sofa to have a chai and samosa as a fellow human. Worse, he would never have wondered why none among his servants, maids, and sweepers share his last name, or what role his caste played in getting him where he is today. What prevents such ideas from crossing his mind is a deeply internalized hierarchy—and therefore entitlement—evident in the way he makes demands on those in his employ, and the deference he expects from them and their kind.
In this social class, middle-aged members might casually observe, 'I saw no casteism while growing up.' Of course, it's harder to see such things from above—which is part of their caste privilege—analogous to the legions of men who internalize their sexism so well they don't notice it at all. This is also the class that's prone to reminisce the 'unity' and 'harmony' of the olden days. Now it feels cheated by reservations. Not surprisingly, a good many champion the 'merit-only' line (implying that only test scores should be considered) and love to claim 'caste blindness' by asserting that their caste is 'Indian'. This 'caste-blind' stance has wide currency with those who somehow see it as totally fair and impartial. They don't recognize that while caste-based prejudice or discrimination is bad, a keen awareness of our different caste privileges is both good and necessary for positive change. In a caste-ridden society, their willful blindness to social pathologies only perpetuates them and does nothing to enhance social mobility. No wonder this class also largely opposed the 2011 caste census meant to assess the continuing socioeconomic disadvantage of caste.
Explain the premise of positive discrimination and see eyes roll. 'We don't treat them badly anymore,' one aunty told me, 'what are they agitating about?' Mention the benefits of diversity and question narrow ideas of 'merit', only to see hateful fear mongering spew out. 'Oye, what if a scheddu civil engineer built a bridge that collapsed?' ('Scheddu' is a derogatory reduction of Scheduled Caste, the administrative term for Dalits, formerly 'untouchables'.) 'What if a scheddu doctor killed a patient?' The instinct is to associate low-caste with congenital stupidity. It doesn't occur to them that the beneficiaries of reservation have to pass the same coursework and training as all others. Besides, they have no empirical data on how many fallen bridges were built by scheddus, nor do they know that Dalit children routinely die due to discriminatory practices by 'merit' doctors.[4] What, if not prejudice, makes them assume that scheddus build bridges that fall, rather than corrupt upper-caste engineers who steal public funds and use inferior materials? Nor do they hesitate in sending their own under-performing kids to engineering and medical colleges where admission is based solely on 'capitation fee'—on money, not 'merit'—as well as to obscure colleges in the former Soviet block countries cashing-in on the obsession this class has for 'foreign degrees'. Some years ago, through the media they dominate, they raised a storm over hate crimes in Australian cities against Indian students, clearly of their own social class. They even got the Indian State to flex its diplomatic muscle. Yet, in their own cities, they're oblivious to hate crimes against Dalit students (which also pushes many over the edge to commit suicide), or African students, or students from north-eastern India.
Awed by the pop culture that trickles down from the West, this class knows little about the rest of India, nor has anything but disdain for its tribal and folk music, dance, and theater.[5] Of much greater concern is India's image in the West, the health of the IT sector, new consumer goods, the peril from Pakistan, emulating China. Utterly materialistic in its values, it equates education with technical training, success with money, and sneers at the arts, social sciences, and the humanities. Its increasingly chauvinistic nationalism is built on an insecure pride in Hinduism. Members of this class may feel irked by Dalits decamping to Buddhism, Christianity, and Islam, but they know 'the problem' Dalits have: their problem is one of underdevelopment, to be fixed by more aggressive 'inclusive development'. Pieties and slogans aside, the members of this class make absolutely no demands on themselves. They never look at the mirror and see that they are squarely at the heart of 'the problem'.
I'm a graduate of the elite Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) system. At a recent dinner party, a Brahmin friend and a hostel mate at IIT Kharagpur, criticized reservations on the grounds that they are socially divisive and instigate disharmony. I had to laugh. Isn't the caste system all about social division, using graded notions of superior and inferior blood? Caste identities have been strong for ages; even today over 90 percent marry their own. If caste now also shapes political consciousness, it's because, in part, its members share the experience of discrimination and inherited disadvantage. If the decibels have gone up, it's because the lower castes no longer tolerate the oppressive 'harmony' of the past. They want a piece of the pie, and they are seeking it via the ballot box. In another country, with the kind of inequities India has, the masses might have resorted to violent revolution long ago. They didn't do so in India primarily because the caste system has also prevented unity for a common cause.
Why pursue reservations, my friend argued, when urbanization, capitalism, and industrial development are doing far better at defeating the inequities of caste. This is true up to a point, and a myth beyond. Caste has been updated and restructured by—and in some ways, attenuated by—capitalism, industrialism, urbanization, the Internet, and mass communication. It's true that cities offer greater anonymity and diverse jobs unrelated to traditional caste occupations, thereby weakening many, including some of the worst, forms of rural casteism. An office-going Brahmin is unlikely to worry about being polluted if he brushes against a Dalit in a crowded bus, or object to eating out lest a Dalit prepared the meal. But even as many old caste abuses have vanished or weakened in the face of urbanization, others have arisen or evolved into malignant forms. The so-called free markets of neoliberalism, scholar Gopal Guru has argued, have 'perpetuated casteism in new forms, making dalits participate in the perpetuation of casteism,'[6] even as neoliberalism has also created a few Dalit millionaires, who are then selectively cited to tout its 'success'.
In other words, capitalist industrialization is a turbulent force working upon the caste system, but it is not in itself a socially progressive force. Introduced in a society like India, with its entrenched inequities, capital and industry build on preexisting social privileges, discrimination, and kinship networks.[7] Furthermore, in an economic system that sanctions unbridled competition, groups with long-standing advantages of wealth and knowledge will continue to be its disproportionate gainers, increasing disparity along caste lines. Indeed, whatever political power the elites have lost to 'caste parties' in recent decades, they've more than made up for in economic power—which is now their backdoor entrée to political clout and control of the national agenda.
As many historians of caste have noted, caste in the urban milieu has morphed to behave more like an ethnic community, whose members not only harbor notions of 'ethnic' distinctiveness but also a strong consciousness of rank vs. other caste communities. This continuing lack of egalitarianism then poisons urban civic life. It impacts hiring decisions; access to rental housing, health care, and public services; response from law enforcement; judicial verdicts; etc.[8] According to a 2012 study, 'caste still remains a real axis of urban residential segregation in India's seven largest metro cites, [finding] residential segregation by caste to be sizeably larger than the level of segregation by socio-economic status. Caste has historically shaped the organisation of residential space, especially at the village level, and it appears to continue to do so in contemporary urban India.'[9]
In our age of economic liberalization, even the Indian private sector oozes discrimination from all its pores. A recent and extensive study, Blocked by Caste, decisively dispels the belief that the private sector is mostly caste-blind and hires based on 'merit'.[10] It shows that equally qualified Dalit and Muslim résumés are much less likely to get selected than upper-caste ones, and exposes other 'hidden nuances of caste prejudice in the language of globalisation that contemporary India speaks.'[11] In The Grammar of Caste: Economic Discrimination in Contemporary India, economist Ashwini Deshpande 'uses rich empirical data to uncover how contemporary, formal, urban sector labour markets reflect a deep awareness of caste, religious, gender, and class cleavages.' She 'argues that discrimination is neither a relic of the past nor is it confined to rural areas, but is very much a modern, formal sector phenomenon'. Even things like upper-caste food taboos—and the feelings of nausea and disgust they provoke—adversely impact employment opportunities for even relatively privileged-class Ashraf Muslims in urban India.[12] The obvious question such studies raise is: why shouldn't affirmative action be part of the strategy for equalizing opportunity in the private sector? Another implication of such entrenched discrimination in public life is that even the beneficiaries of reservation can travel only so far. (See an excellent survey of the reservations debate by Jayati Ghosh. [13])
My friend, whose attitudes are fairly representative of my other friends from IIT, had never even noticed that of the nine students in our IIT hostel wing, five were Brahmins, or the fact that our IIT faculty too was almost entirely drawn from the twice-born castes. This lack of awareness is another form of caste privilege. Even in 2015, only 11 of the 536 faculty members at IIT Chennai were SC (in 2001, SCs were only 2 out of 427; IIT Mumbai had zero).[14] In 2010, even in Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi, 'regarded as a bastion of progressive social scientists and historians—only 3.29 per cent of the faculty [was] Dalit and 1.44 per cent Adivasi, while the quotas are meant to be 15 per cent and 7.5 per cent, respectively.'[15] Each year, both during and since our time at IIT, the SC/ST quota had gone largely unfilled for the incoming students. Even then, my friend had internalized a disproportionate sense of the 'wrong' of reservations eating away at the system.
Notably, he supported income- and gender-based reservations. A votary of a technocratic idea of 'merit', he was nevertheless willing to trade some 'merit' for other social goods, except when it came to caste. He saw the disability of poverty and gender, but minimized the disability of caste, refusing to see how common it is even in urban life, let alone in rural India, where most Indians live. I wondered if he had ever really pondered the sting of casteism, or what Indian society might look like from Dalit perspectives, urban and rural. He seemed to embody all the ignorance, doublethink, and moral myopia of the social class we both belonged to. I saw in him the same empathy deficit that I had been ashamed to discover within myself.
It is often said that caste is to India what race is to America. Yet, the attitudes of the dominant social class in the two countries couldn't be more different (it is instructive to compare them without subscribing to a singular conception of modernity, and while acknowledging that much work is still needed on race relations in the United States). Since at least the 60s, debate on racial prejudice has been mainstream in America. Civic institutions began combating it as a social evil; whites confronted other whites in the public square;[16] Hollywood, the media, and the elites made it uncool; the courts cracked the whip on hate crimes (police violence against blacks remains a problem, though it's likely that its incidence has declined in recent decades, and only its frequent documentation by phone cameras nowadays and subsequent media coverage, as in Ferguson, suggests otherwise); diversity and multiculturalism became priorities in academic and cultural institutions. White readers widely read black authors who write about their social milieus. Blacks are highly visible in popular culture, including sports, music, and films, and are fully integrated in the military. White majorities routinely elect black mayors, senators, and governors; a politician's prospects can be destroyed by the merest racial slur (recall the 'macaca' incident that cost George Allen his reelection to the US Senate in 2006).
Not so in India. Prime Minister and leader of the BJP, Narendra Modi, when he was Chief Minister of Gujarat in 2010, compared Dalits to 'mentally retarded children' who gain 'spiritual experience' from manual scavenging. The media shows little interest or insight into Dalit lives, nor hires lower-caste journalists.[17] Major atrocities against Dalits still go unreported. Law enforcement is often indifferent or worse: policemen refuse to file FIRs, collude with the criminals, and obstruct justice in the courts. Of the hundreds of judges appointed to the Supreme Court of India, only three have been Dalit.[18] There is no effective prosecution for discrimination in employment and housing, which is rampant.[19] A Dalit politician, however qualified, can't get a majority of upper-caste votes even in South Mumbai. Even among those few elites who read books, how many have read a single novel or memoir by a Dalit? In what is perhaps the most diverse country in the world, there is no commitment to diversity in the elite institutions that decide what is worthy art, music, and literature, or what is the content of history textbooks. None of the eighteen chairs thus far of the Indian Council of Historical Research, which funds historical research in India, has been Dalit. Brahmanical thinking still pervades scholarship about the past, creatively defanging and co-opting dissidents into its fold, as with the Bhakti thinkers and poets of the medieval period.[20] In book after book of stories for children, both the protagonist and the implicit audience are elite and upper-caste.[21] Much the same is true of sitcoms, soap operas, and commercials on TV. Dalits are invisible from all popular culture that gets any airtime. The Indian army refuses to mirror the social composition of the Indian republic and has largely kept out Muslims from its ranks.[22] There is no comparable Indian counterpart of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). Or a Dalit history month on public TV, or exhibits in museums, that seek to educate the upper castes about a long and dark chapter of their past (and present). Unless a sizable proportion of elites, benumbed by privilege, open their eyes and learn to see both within and without, can there be much hope?

Back around the time BioShock Infinite was revealed, we were somewhat dissapointed to learn such a fresh looking game would be relying on old mechanics. Seems there may not be anything to worry about -- art director Nate Wells is saying it's right at home.
"The main thing we can say without getting into too much detail is: trust us, the BioShock gameplay belongs there. There was never a thought that we wouldn't use it. But we are resting on the faith of the fans to believe us, that the BioShock name is neither tacked on nor a misnomer."
Creative director Ken Levine adds, "But I do encourage people to think about what their expectations are, and how low they've been set by other sequels."
Some of that detail was covered previously, when Levine stated Infinite would "not be a corridor shooter", and would host more varied gameplay and be sniper-friendly.

Black Opal Papaya Gentle Body Exfoliator ($6.95) is a great drugstore body scrub that you can find at a lot of your local retailers. I saw it at Wal-Mart (that's the closest "drugstore" to me at the moment), actually. It caught my eye because it smells like tropical paradise to me–which I suppose is a mix of papaya, pineapple, mango, etc. All I know is whenever I use this in the shower, I feel like I'm getting ready for a lazy, summery day spent at the beach. (Of course, I'm not really, but it's a nice way to wake up!) It uses papaya enzymes as a natural exfoliator and brightener, so it's extremely gentle and can be used a few times a week.Read Full Review
Aromatherapy Optimism – Bright Blossoms Sudsing Scrub Review
Aromatherapy Optimism – Bright Blossoms Sudsing Scrub ($13.00) is a body scrub that foams up while exfoliating the skin. It smells like jasmine and spring to me. It contains small sugar grains that help you exfoliate your skin. A lot of exfoliating products don't foam up, so it's nice to see one that does. It feels pretty gentle against the skin, and the sugar granules melt against the skin after they've been massaged into the skin. You get a good amount for your buck, and I tend to cheap out for shower products–if only because so much ends up down the drain!Read Full Review
True Blue Spa Just a Minute Manicure Scrub for Soft Paws
True Blue Spa Just a Minute 60-Second Manicure Scrub ($12.00) is a sugar scrub designed for hands. The product claims that you just need to use it on your hands for sixty seconds to have hands that looked like they spent the day at the spa. I have to admit I was pretty skeptical, because I wasn't sure if I really wanted a scrub just for my hands (seriously, do I need that?!) and if it would do anything for me.Read Full Review
Philosophy "The Holiday" Cookbook for Holiday Showers
Philosophy "The Holiday" Cookbook ($35.00) features six 2 oz. bottles of Philosophy's popular three-in-ones. Each is scented differently, but all can be used as a shampoo, shower gel, or a bubble bath. Who doesn't appreciate a product that multi-tasks? And in my shower, a product that can do three things will definitely earn a spot to call its own! I'm a huge fan of Philosophy's shower gels (3-in-1s, whatever!), because they lather SO, SO richly and luxuriously! I'm all about being able to work up a good lather, and any shower gel that can't do that doesn't past muster with me. Thankfully, Philosophy has yet to disappoint me when it comes to their formula!Read Full Review
Philosophy First Snow Set to Give OR Receive!
Philosophy First Snow Set ($26.00) is a three-piece set featuring Snow Shower exfoliating shower gel (4 oz.), Snow Body Shimmer Lotion (2 oz.), and Snow Kiss Lip Shine (0.5 oz). The Snow Shower is a glittery gel that exfoliates and sloughs off rough skin without being rough. I'd consider it a gentle body exfoliator. The Snow Body Shimmer Lotion is adorable; it's such a fun product to use when you want to pamper yourself. The shimmer went on subtly, which is great, because while I love some body shimmer, I don't want a glittery hot mess either! I love, love, LOVE Philosophy's Lip Shines (you know how some people obsess over Juicy Tubes? Lip Shines for me!). It's not surprising that Snow Kiss is a nice low key choice. It's a sheer, shimmery gloss with blue-toned glimmer. It's kind of like frost/ice in a sense. There's a scent/flavor to it; I'm not exactly sure what it is… reminds me almost of raspberry lemonade.Read Full Review
Lush Rub Rub Rub & Yummy Yummy Yummy Shower Gels Reviews
LUSH Rub Rub Rub & Yummy Yummy Yummy ($8.95 to $23.95) are two shower gels that recently came out. Rub Rub Rub's scent can be compared to Lush's Sakura bath bomb (which is a fresh, spring-blossom-day kind of scent). RRR is not just a shower gel, but more of shower gel meets shower scrub. It's not a full-on shower scrub (it's just not gritty enough), but the sea salt in it helps make this gel give you softer, smoother skin. I actually like that it's got the lather of a shower gel, but some of the grit of a scrub, because I can still use my bath poof to lather up and get some extra exfoliation in.Read Full Review

Jennifer Lawrence talks about puking in front of Miley Cyrus on Oscar night
Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence has been making the press rounds promoting "X-Men: Days of Future Past," and that included an appearance "Late Night with Seth Meyers" Wednesday night. The occasion brought with it a delightful anecdote of that time the "American Hustle" star blew chunks at a fancy Oscar party.
Actually, the appearance was taped a month ago (strange). So since then, this yarn about the foregoing of her Oscars spirits in front of Miley Cyrus as been floating about. And, well, it's kind of hilarious.
Yeah, yeah, we all know Lawrence is a natural and charismatic as all get out. But she was cracking me up throughout this interview. I think the "Hustle" role came close, but I feel like, as good as she's been in a number of things, nothing has quite captured that inherent spirit about her yet. I'm sure that won't be the case for long, though.
"I've never gone out after Golden Globes or Oscars. I'm just so sick of people by that point," the actress joked. "But this time I was like, 'I'm going out.' And I puked. There's this big, fancy party, this Guy Oseary and Madonna party. If you get invited you're, like, super important. And I puked on his porch! I was in such bad condition and I looked behind me while I'm puking and Miley Cyrus is there, like, 'Get it together.'"
Yeah, it's probably pretty bad if Miley Cyrus is giving you social cues.
Anyway, you can listen to the story yourself below. She also talks about bringing her friend along on this, her third trip to the big dance, and all the shenanigans that ensued. (Hint: Brad Pitt smelled like sandalwood.)
"X-Men: Days of Future Past" hits theaters Friday. Oh yeah, and it's pretty good.

Delicious! Next time If I have time and energy, I might reduce the balsamic a little bit to make it stick to the strawberries more. Thank you.
I wanted grilled pineapple for supper but did not have any. So we made these instead, delicious we had them over ice cream while still warm. The flavour was wonderful and just to gild the lily a bit, topped it with chocolate sauce and whipped cream.
My husband had mixed feelings about these...he didn't want something warm on an already warm day, but I thought they were pretty good. We just served along with our dinner, but I think I'll use the leftovers on vanilla ice cream, as someone else suggested. Nice and easy and certainly a change from the regular strawberries served for dinner.
These are simply divine! We had kabobs with grilled chicken, kabobs with the veggies, and kabobs with 1/4 pineapple wedges. What a delightful dinner. Thank you so much for this simple indulgence!
I made this last night. It's so good. Our local strawberries aren't ready yet so the strawberries we can get come from far away and are picked before they're ripe. Grilling brought out their flavour. My DH, who doesn't care for food experiments loved them.
Yum! I used Splenda. I let the berries soak in the vinegar for a few hours. They came out very tart!
Sorry, this didn't do much for me! All we got was a warmed strawberry. Couldn't distinguish the balsamic vinegar or the sugar. Proably won't do this again
Very nice blend of flavors. Grilling really releases the natural sweetness of the berries, and balsamic vinegar is a great addition to these flavors. Luscious treat with a little whipped cream on each berry.
it was brilliant&very simple. yumyumyum try hollowing it out and filling with more sugar/vinegar mix
I must say I have never had strawberries on the grill before and man were these good!! They were very easy and simple to prepare and we served them over vanilla ice cream. Thanks for a great recipe Ducky!

Dear Mexican,
This is the second rant I've felt I had to send to you. I don't know if readers are allowed "seconds" but here it goes: Much has been said about the terrible things happening to the United States and its citizens by the Mexican drug cartels. But what's the difference between the modern-day cartels and the Big Four of the period between 1492 and 1775? I refer you to the kings of England, France, Portugal, and Spain who invaded the Americas during the above-noted period. The invaders didn't bring cocaine, pot or meth but they brought various diseases that, if I read history correctly, led to the death of many thousands of native peoples. And, of course, they brought their heavyweight weapon, the one I believe that Lenin called the opiate of the masses: religion. Today, many people and our economy are hurt by today's cartels, and I'm not defending them in any way, but it strikes me the cartels of today are pikers compared to their predecessors, who killed an untold number of native peoples and stole a continent.
Mexica Tiahui!

Sloppy seconds are always welcome here, cabrón! It was Marx who dropped the line about religion, not, Lenin (he wrote of religion that it's "a sort of spiritual booze, in which the slaves of capital drown their human image, their demand for a life more or less worthy of man"), and the natives were muy religious, but otherwise, your analysis doesn't go far enough. You forgot to mention how, like the cartels, the conquistadors fought each other for trade routes, killing each other and innocents in the process. How they demanded tribute from villagers, and terrorized them with public displays of brutality to keep them in line. How the conquistadors built empires that enriched only themselves, and created serfs out of those whom they didn't bribe into submission. The only real difference between the conquistadors and drug cartels is that the former did it in the name of Christ—and even the narcos aren't that pendejo to pull that card.
Dear Mexican,
Does it make any sense to you that, in some cities in Mexico, there are statues of the Spanish conquistadors? After all these were the same people who believed that they were superior than the Mexicans so they had to force their ways on them, and not to mention the whole slaughtering of thousands of Mexicans, too.
Lies my Maestro Told Me
Dear Wab,
Of course it does. Because, while though the conquistadors raped and murdered countless indigenous folks, they represent order and progress to Mexico's elite, the very people who have the money to erect statues and are more that proud to claim direct ancestry to the barbarians. Witness the furor that happened last year, when the city of Merida in the Yucatan erected a statue to its founder, the conquistador Francisco de Montejo. Even though Montejo laid waste to the Mayas back in the 16th century, and even though the descendants of the vanquished protested loudly, the city's elites erected the statue. And the same controversy happens whenever someone commemorates Juan de Oñate, the conquistador who swung his sword through New Mexico, much to the delight of the Hispanos who claim no Injun blood in their veins and to the horror of everyone else. But it's not just an elite-Mexican thing to side with the cruel — just look at the Southern love for the Confederacy.

What is CA-125?
CA-125 (cancer antigen 125) is a protein found in the blood and is frequently used as a biomarker for detecting the presence of ovarian cancer. It is elevated in certain types of ovarian cancer, but not others. A CA-125 test can be used to determine if a patient's cancer has recurred and in some instances, to assess the risk of ovarian cancer before diagnosis.
Because the presence of ovarian cancer may coincide with elevated levels of CA-125, it has also been used historically to assess risk of malignancy before surgery, even though such use is not approved by the FDA. The test is not completely accurate as many noncancerous conditions can also result in increased levels of the protein. As a result, up to 50% of early stage cancers are not detected by CA-125.
What is the difference between CA-125 and OVA1?
OVA1, unlike CA-125, was cleared by FDA for the pre-surgical triage of ovarian cancer. OVA1 measures a panel of 5 biomarkers – including CA-125 – which sensitively detects malignancy across all stages and subtypes of ovarian cancer. As a result, fewer cancers are missed than CA-125 or other common methods. Because of the risk of ovarian cancer spreading to other areas, the high sensitivity of OVA1 in detecting a malignant risk becomes extremely important.

|Premenopausal Early Stage
|Postmenopausal Early Stage

Worldwide Month of Service
Every October is Month of Service
Alcoa employees across the world proudly do their bit each October to make a difference in the communities where they work, rest and play.
In 2015, some 2000 Australian employees donated more than 10,000 volunteer hours to community projects and non-profit organisations during the tenth annual Month of Service.
Employees participated in a wide range of activities including: building bird enclosures for Mandurah Wildlife Rescue; removing toxic weeds from the surrounding native bush of North Dandalup Primary School; giving the walls of Silver Chain Respite Cottage in Rockingham a fresh coat of paint; helping St Vincent de Paul Society employees get the Pinjarra Vinnies Shop ready for Christmas; joining forces with Soroptimist International to create quilts for local foster kids and baby blankets for Balinese hospitals; installing a bike path at Orelia Primary School; and building wooden pews for Rockingham Theatre.
The spirit of volunteering is embraced by all Alcoa employees, from the Chairman and Managing Director Michael Parker, to his lead team, site operators and administrators.
Michael was among thousands of Alcoa employees who rolled up their sleeves at 100-plus projects across Australia -

Pizza, Pure Bliss, Sauce...Crust...Cheese, Heaven on a Plate, Satisfaction
BY: Sonal Pandya
| July 18, 2013 at 2:12 PM
In Pulitzer-winning journalist Jesse Katz's session titled "Releasing Your Inner Writer" I was reminded that I may grossly overestimate my ability to be understood. I hope I am not alone.
I've not figured out how it started but it may have begun in law school where the IRAC method of writing was drilled into me for three years. I believe I spent many years after law school writing that way; here is the Issue, here is the Rule, here is the Analysis, here is the Conclusion.
There's nothing wrong with this method, but Jesse reminds us to start with what is important and then what is less important, to what is least important. So, this made me wonder, do we start with the conclusion instead of the issue? I guess it depends.
We should definitely know what the point is, know our audience, and skip the corporate acronyms and jargon.
During the session we had the opportunity to write a story about our favorite food and then turn it into a poem. I've shared my poem, a cinquaine, above in the title.
We learned to set aside "weak" verbs for more "muscular verbs." Jesse told us to circle all the "to be" verbs in our story and consider restructuring those sentences by removing those "to be" verbs. He also suggested to remove adverbs and prepositions.
At the end, Jesse asked us to turn our cinquaine into a strong sentence....here's mine:

HPV causes cancer. Help protect your kids.
Cancer survival statistics are very general estimates and must be interpreted very carefully. Because survival statistics are based on the experience of groups of people in the general population, they cannot be used to predict a particular person's chances of survival.
There are many different ways to measure and report cancer survival statistics. Your doctor can explain the statistics for bladder cancer and what they mean to you.
Net survival represents the probability of surviving cancer in the absence of other causes of death. It is used to give an estimate of the percentage of people who will survive their cancer.
In Canada, the 5-year net survival for bladder cancer is 73%. This means that, on average, about 73% of people diagnosed with bladder cancer will survive for at least 5 years.
Relative survival looks at how likely people with cancer are to survive after their diagnosis compared to people in the general population who do not have cancer, but who share similar characteristics (such as age and sex).
Survival varies with each stage and grade of bladder cancer. Generally, the earlier bladder cancer is diagnosed and treated, the better the outcome.
|5-year relative survival
Talk to your doctor about your prognosis. A prognosis depends on many factors, including:
Only a doctor familiar with these factors can put all of this information together with survival statistics to arrive at a prognosis.
