Osteoarthritis Apple Cider Vinegar
Relief From Osteoarthritis – Osteoarthritis Apple Cider Vinegar
The degenerative joint disease known as osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, and affects more than half of people over the age of 70. It is thought to be caused by the daily accumulated wear and tear of connective tissue over the years of life, and is aggravated by poor diet and lifestyle choices. Often the affected joints are the weight-bearing joints, though other joints may be affected as well.
In order to achieve lasting pain relief, those with osteoarthritis often turn to having many different options to treat pain. This includes conventional medications, as well as alternative treatments, with many looking to find effective and convenient treatment methods, that have no side-effects that can make life even more difficult to live.
One such treatment is osteoarthritis apple cider vinegar. A long-known folk remedy for osteoarthritis, apple cider vinegar has been used by many successfully for the treatment of osteoarthritis pain. For those with osteoarthritis, apple cider vinegar may well be one of the convenient, effective treatments that they can use alone, or in combination with other treatments.
Apple cider vinegar is made through the fermentation of apple cider. Yeast and bacteria break down the sugar in the apple cider, first transforming it into alcohol, and then vinegar. The resulting light yellow-brown vinegar can thus be used unfiltered and unpasteurized as a treatment for osteoarthritis.
One method of using apple cider vinegar is as a liniment which is massaged into the affected area. First heat the apple cider vinegar until it is comfortably warm, then apply the vinegar to the affected area as needed. The vinegar's warmth can help relieve the pain of osteoarthritis, and the vinegar itself is safe to apply as often as needed.
Apple cider vinegar may also be consumed in order to treat osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis apple cider vinegar may be used as a replacement to normal vinegar in the regular diet, and may also be consumed directly. Some can stand to take the apple cider vinegar in its pure form, two teaspoonfuls thrice a day is recommended. But for those who find they have difficulties with the taste of the vinegar, two teaspoonfuls may also be mixed with warm water, along with some honey to help with the taste.

- subversion relationship starts not only if --update feature is requested by

- we do not installing repository metadata from the source tarball (exactly this
breaks the --update option, but it is broken anyway, see below)
- aforementioned repository metadata is not compatible with svn 1.7, that is in

Golf: May 3rd at Fountain Valley
Farmington headed up the second tier of teams in its first conference meet of the season Monday afternoon.
Opening on their home course at Fountain Valley, the Tigers posted a team score of 326 to place fifth out of eight teams. League newcomers Chaska and Chanhassen battled it out for the top spot, with Chaska scoring a 308-314 victory in its first Missota Conference meet. Shakopee edged New Prague 316-317 in the battle for third place.
"For it being the first Missota tournament of the year we fared pretty well," Farmington coach Jon Holmes said. "We finished fifth, which if you consider we added two powerhouses in Chaska and Chanhassen and lost a top team in Prior Lake, we actually moved up two spots compared to last year."
Leading the charge for the Tigers was junior Tommy May, who placed third out of 48 golfers with a round of 77. He carded a 37 on the front nine and a 40 on the back nine.
Seniors Mike Dalhed and Cooper Loew supplied the team's next two scores, shooting rounds of 81 and 82, respectively.
"The boys put in a lot of time over the summer and these scores are definitely an improvement from last year," Holmes said. "We have good ball strikers and good scramblers, but now we need to learn how to be good scorers. If they can learn to minimize their mistakes to a bogey versus a double or worse it goes a long way."
The Tigers fell off the pace with the rest of their varsity lineup as Matt Provost, Trevor Hockert and Tony Lalani each turned in rounds of 86.
"Three of our scores at 77, 81 and 82 are not too shabby, but we really need to get a fourth score that is in the 70s," Holmes said. "In high school golf par is 80, and we really need to be at or below that mythical par to compete."
The Tigers' meet Wednesday at Prior Lake has been rescheduled for next Wednesday, April 27. The team competes again next Tuesday at Emerald Greens Golf Course.

But the book sold well
John Miller over at National Review Online notes that reviews are not exactly going well for The DaVinci Code. My two favorite quotes:
New York Times: "I certainly can't support any calls for boycotting or protesting this busy, trivial, inoffensive film. Which is not to say I'm recommending you go see it."
Variety: "An oppressively talky film that isn't exactly dull, but comes as close to it as one could imagine with such provocative material; result is perhaps the best thing the project's critics could have hoped for."
As long as Ron Howard is taking best-sellers and making movies out of them overly-crammed with dialogue, any chance he could direct Atlas Shrugged? Talk about a movie with dialogue! And that author hated religion, too!

I am having some trouble outputting my sql to a report. The problem is that the output looks fine until it is sent through Email, then the tabs in the output off shift the data in the columns and the report does not look very good. If I paste it into a program like notepad it looks fine. But not all programs treat tab stops the same.
How can I remove the tabs from the output and still have the columns line up?
Preferably Oracle would just substitute the correct number of spaces instead of the tabs. There must be a command in Oracle to do this.

I never tried to send a report via e-mail so can't help you much, but I may try.
One solution might be setting one of the SQL*Plus options:TAB {OFF|ON}
Determines how SQL*Plus formats white space in terminal output. OFF uses spaces to format white space in the output. ON uses the TAB character. TAB settings are every eight characters. The default value for TAB is system dependent.Code:
SQL> set tab off SQL> select * from dept; DEPTNO DNAME DLOKAC ---------- -------------- ------------- 10 PRODAJA BOSTON 20 NABAVA NEW YORK 30 ERC PARIS
Now, could you force it to use a non-proportional font while e-mailing the report?
If nothing of this helps, wait a little bit more until someone else suggests another solution.

Tell your dad he might want to check it out. In Illinois, if you put a number behind the words, there's an initial extra cost but after that the renewal is the same as any regular plate. Like Phred 1 would be the same as a regular plate but just Phred would be extra....in Illinois that is. Maybe Ohio is similar?
Phred 1 = personalized plate
Phred = vanity plate
Evidently in Illinois vanity costs more than personalization.

I thought about going the vanity plate route too, when we only had Cincy and Sadie and I had 2 cars in my name...until I saw the cost!! My truck, regular plates are $70 each year, and for the shadow it was $60 or so....add on the $35 for for a vanity and it would be almost $200 a year!!!
Geez Amy, we pay more than that in IN....they gouge us here. We usually spend around $300 for the 2 vehicles.

More than 315 people have died in fires in Bangladesh garment factories since 2006. The country has about 4,000 garment factories and earns about $20 billion a year from garment exports, mainly to the United States and Europe. Some recent deadly garment factory fires:
- At least 112 people die in a fire Saturday at an eight-story factory outside Dhaka. Authorities and survivors say the building lacked emergency exits and other safety measures were not taken.
- A fire in December 2010 at a 10-story factory in Ashulia kills 29 workers.
- In February 2010, a fire engulfs a sweater factory in Gazipur, killing at least 28.
- In 2006, a fire at a factory in Narayanganj kills 23.
- Another fire in 2006 kills 63 workers at a factory in southeastern Chittagong city.

When did it happen?
I can't figure it out.
My children are beginning to correct me in public. My daughter tells me, "Mother, don't act that way. You're acting like an old person. Don't wear that! You've got to get rid of that! Don't say that — old people do that. Be kind. You are embarrassing us."
I remember the day when I was the mother and they were the children, and I corrected them. They did things that embarrassed me and I corrected them in public. It was my place to make sure they didn't eat with their mouths open, that they dressed properly, and I'd tell them what to say: You need to apologize, you need to say thank you, and you need to be polite.
Now the tables have turned.
My daughter says to me, "Mother, we are not going to let you get old."
She fusses with my hair in public, straightens my shirt and tells me I need to get on the treadmill.
I realize it's all for my own good. I used to know what was for my own good, but now my children are telling me.
I was standing in line at Costco. An older lady, probably 80 years old, was standing in front of me arguing with the young, 20-year-old clerk. The lady had ordered a pizza with everything on it.
The young girl said, "Do you mean a supreme?"
The older lady in her crustiness said, "I said everything. I've been coming here for twenty-seven years, and when I said everything, they knew what everything meant."
"So you want a supreme." The girl started rattling off the toppings.
The woman said, "I said everything. You kids today don't know anything."
I looked at the poor young girl at the counter. This lady had just ruined her day.
I thought to myself, "I don't ever want to be that way. Old people speak their mind and they don't care who they hurt. Am I doing that?"
The way my children are correcting me lately, maybe I'm doing the same thing.
Years ago, I remember Al's mother. She was from Texas — proud of it — and told everyone. She talked loud and embarrassed all of us. Her voice carried for miles. She would tell the cashier all her problems and ailments and her voice reverberated through the whole store. She didn't care who heard. In fact, I think she rather enjoyed being heard.
I'd tell Al, "Those cashiers don't want to hear about your mother's problems or if she is regular or not. Why does she do that? What is that all about?"
I remember someone correcting her. They told her she was too loud.
She said, "I'm not going to suppress my lungs for anyone and I'm proud to be a Texan." Then she would relay the story to everyone: "Nobody's going to tell me what I should say or not say."
Oh me, I believe this next phase of life is just beginning. I guess you can go two ways: you can become childlike or be cantankerous and obnoxious.
My desire has been to grow old in grace.
I don't think it's happening.
Our children think my Sweet Al is so cute and getting cuter all the time. He's wearing his pants high and his favorite red socks, which he wears all the time.
I tell Al, "Don't go to the girl's work. They are working and you will get them in trouble." He goes anyway. They are glad to see him.
I tell him, "Don't take Daisy, (our daughter's dog), by her work. She's busy." He does it anyway. She thinks he is so cute, and so do the other cashiers.
He picked up two pairs of orange coveralls at a garage sale. I told him he shouldn't wear them to town, they will think he has just escaped from the county jail and they will arrest him. He doesn't listen. He wears them anyway. My daughters think their daddy is the cutest thing ever in his orange coveralls.
Our other daughter was telling me how cute this older couple was. She said she wanted to cry — the little old man reminded her of her daddy. He was pushing the cart for his wife, he was carrying his wife's white purse over his shoulder and she was shopping.
I don't get it. They think their daddy is cute and they think I'm this old person who needs to be corrected, and fixed up before I go out in public. And that I need to get back on the treadmill. They're not looking at me with the same adoring eyes.
Final brushstroke: I guess things come back around if you live long enough. My children are not seeing me as cute. They are insisting that I should be this new 50 in this 70-year-old body and mind.
It ain't working very well.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 18 (UPI) -- Washington is committed to a strategic partnership with Pakistan that extends beyond plans for a regional U.S. military withdrawal in 2011, officials said.
U.S. war planners tie the success of their war strategy in Afghanistan to stability in neighboring Pakistan.
David Sedney, the U.S. deputy assistant secretary for Central Asian affairs, said Washington has a long-term commitment to Pakistan, the U.S. Defense Department said.
"America will remain a staunch supporter of Pakistani security and prosperity long after the guns fall silent," the assistant secretary said.
He was speaking with Pentagon reporters following a visit with Pakistani officials and Michele Flournoy, the undersecretary of defense for policy.
Flournoy told her Pakistani counterparts that there are no plans to leave the region after the fighting stops, as was the case when U.S. lawmakers lost interest in the region when Soviet forces pulled out in 1989.
Flournoy, Sedney said, told the Pakistanis that the July 2011 date for a U.S. military drawdown from Afghanistan was "not an end" but rather "a transition point."
Sedney added the U.S.-Pakistani relationship was based initially on internal security developments but would move in the future to advance the durability of democratic institutions.
"This is a comprehensive effort," Sedney said.

Hawley man found dead in car on County Road 15 after it veered off highway
Authorities have released the name of a 32-year-old Hawley man who died Sunday after being found unconscious by authorities on Becker County Road 15.
Ryan Daniel Leister was found unconscious at 1:23 p.m. after law enforcement, fire and rescue, and EMS crews from several agencies responded to a call that a vehicle, a 2002 Oldsmobile Alero, had driven off the road about a mile south of Highway 10 and come to rest in a lowland area.
The Becker County Sheriff's Office, the Minnesota State Patrol, Detroit Lakes Fire and Rescue, Detroit Lakes EMS, and Audubon Fire and Rescue responded to the call.
Rescue workers attempted to resuscitate Leister, but efforts were unsuccessful. He was later pronounced dead at St. Mary's Innovis in Detroit Lakes.
He apparently was heading northbound on County Road 15 and was believed to be heading back home towards Hawley.
Due to the lack of damage to the vehicle, an autopsy was conducted by the Ramsey County Medical Examiner to determine the cause of death.
A provisional autospy report indicated that Leister died from a pre-existing heart condition.

12 days. It had been 12 days since Korra had confessed her feelings for Mako, and he was still rather cautious around her. She wasn't quite sure where to go from here. How could they possibly go back to being friends after this? Would there always be this cloud of uncertainty hanging over them? Asami was keeping Mako busy during the week away from the ring, and it seemed Korra didn't see a whole lot of him anymore, so perhaps she didn't have much to worry about although she did miss him. Furthermore, Bolin had been more than attentive lately, and she wasn't sure how to interpret his actions. Should she encourage him? She had no idea where to draw the line. Thankfully, nothing more of a romantic nature had transpired between her and either of the boys, which made training a bit more bearable.
She snapped back to attention when she realized that Tenzin had asked her a question.
"What was that, Tenzin?"
Tenzin sighed in exasperation.
"What is it going to take to get you to

TORONTO - Welcome to the Rogers Cup, or what has become the tennis worlds version of Ground Zero.
Saturdays semifinalists included a perennial wallflower, the sublime but unranked part-timer, Serena Williams, and a couple candidates for a world-class word jumble.
Chances are when folks were buying tickets for this day they werent thinking: Hey, wow! Agnieszka Radwanska! Victoria Azarenka! It just doesnt get any better, eh?
But, Im just guessing.
The day opened with John McEnroe getting the star treatment: They hauled him off the court in a bundle of pain during a legends match after he popped a hamstring. Its been that kind of week at the Rexall Center. Star power has been battered. Bloodied. Bruised. Beaten.
And, so there was the weeks collateral damage: Samantha Stosur, the professional also-ran at centre court against Radwanska, the toast of Poland when, in 2008 she hit the WTAs top 10. But it was a stay so fleeting nine out of 10 people surveyed at Bay & Yonge wouldnt recognize her from their favourite brand of Polish sausage.
This isnt to say that among the tennis fraternity she isnt well respected. She is. Nobody wins nine matches in a row at this level, as Radwanska had before running into Stosur Saturday, without a certain competence.
At 22, she has the time and, reportedly the talent, to become a household name. Outside the Radwanska household, that is. A win here wouldve put her back in the top 10 but, of course, that didnt happen and its no big different, she said in English that at times is as broken as her game. Fortunately for both, its nothing that time and experience cant fix.
Being in top 10, its of course much better. But I think most important thing to be top 10 at the end of the year.
But to accomplish that she will have to provide more results like earlier this week when she beat third-seed Vera Zvonareva. More results like winning her fifth career tournament last week in Carlsbad. And, fewer results like the one she turned in against Stosur, losing 6-2, 5-7, 6-2.
Radwanska was broken three times in the first set, rallied to win the second then ran out of gas two weeks of playing some of the best tennis of her life catching up.
Its very hard, you know, playing so many matches in a row, especially good matches on a very high level, she said.
The greats do it every week, and win. The good do it every week and, like Radwanska, dream of greatness. And it would also be nice if she could reach to back-to-back finals. This weekend, that too again eluded her.
Stosur knows all about illusions. She has been the perennial bridesmaid. This year alone she has been a semi-finalist twice, a finalist twice. But if she wins here Sunday it will be for just the third time in more than a decade of singles play.
There have been 10 finals since 1999. Two wins. In other words, she can play with the big girls but rarely has she beaten a Williams or a Sharapova. So what separates the great from the merely competent?
It takes winning lots of finals and winning Grand Slams and I havent done either of those yet, Stosur says, laughing through a delightful Aussie lilt. But youve got fantastic champions like those two and others. They win a lot. I have played some really tough opponents in finals, and I havent gone out and lost all those matches so Im not too concerned about my record in finals but Id definitely like to win another one (Sunday).
What this week will do for Stosur is push her back into 10th in WTA rankings. Comfy.
She has earnings of more than $7 million US in her career. But some of that is thanks to 23 doubles titles, which might be fine for the bank account but also is a guaranteed ticket to tennis obscurity. Sometimes reputation means as much as money.
Top 10 definitely means something. I definitely want to get back in, said Stosur, who once hit as high as No. 4 in world rankings. I think that for any person playing professional sport the benchmark is the top 10, and then you make it top five, and then obviously from there you never know whats possible ... I guess every day Ive got to go out and keep trying. Results like this make anything possible.
Last night, standing in her path were either perhaps the greatest player of her generation, Serena Williams or Azarenka, who at age 22 has won as many tournaments this year as Stosur has in a lifetime.
I dont know, said Stosur, asked how good she could still be. I dont want to put a number (ranking) on it.
Perhaps that makes sense. Perhaps only greatness would recognize that number. Only greatness knows No. 1.

Multi-Layered Ring Log-Periodic Antennas Array Design for GPS Systems
The telecommunications sector knew an unprecedented growth and diverse services (mobile phone, multimedia services, etc.) are being offered by many systems (cellular system, multimedia, wireless data transfer, satellite system, etc.). While seeking to optimize the radio electric performances of an antenna, the authors must adapt it to the most recent applications (space communications, mobile communications and wireless communications or antennas for cars) and fulfill the integration requirements for terminals architecture. The antenna must improve the total radio terminal performances.

Judas Priest Stream New Single, 'March Of The Damned'
Subscribe to 101.9 KING-FM on
Judas Priest are giving us another of their upcoming album, 'Redeemer of Souls.' You can stream the first song, 'March of the Damned,' above. Although they premiered the title track three weeks ago, 'March of the Damned' is considered the first official single.
"'March of the Damned' is really one of my favorite songs," guitarist Glenn Tipton says before the song begins. "It's just simple, straight to the point. It's not really something about zombies or the walking dead. It also has a reference to all the kids that come to our concerts that march along that can't be stopped. It's not 'Judas Priest' and 'the audience.' With all the anthems we've done and all the singing that the audience does, it's one and the same thing."
'Redeemer of Souls' will be released on July 15 in both a standard edition with 13 songs and a deluxe edition that adds five bonus tracks. It is their first album since 2008's 'Nostradamus,' and features the debut of new guitarist Richie Faulkner, who replaced K.K. Downing in 2011.
Judas Priest is currently on tour in Europe through the end of May. They have not yet announced any further dates due to singer Rob Halford's decision to have elective surgery on an umbilcal hernia.

Late free throws help Mt. Pleasant girls hold off Osky
The Mt. Pleasant girls' basketball team hit late free throws to hold on to a narrow lead in a 50-47 nonconference win over Oskaloosa on Tuesday night in Mt. Pleasant.
The Panthers led the whole way but could never quite shake the Indians.
They took a 22-19 lead into halftime and went up by as many as nine points in the third quarter; Oskaloosa, however, refused to give up.
The Indians cut the lead to as little as one point in the fourth quarter, and they kept fighting until the last second of the game, when MaKena Veldhuizen — who finished with a game-high 29 points — heaved a shot from beyond half court.
It bounced off the backboard as time expired in the Mt. Pleasant win.
The Panthers made six free throws in the last 1:30 of the fourth quarter to hold on to their lead. Leslie Taylor, Taryne Shull, Natalie Myers, Kelsi Phipps and Natalie Ita each took turns at the line.
"We were making free throws a little better down the stretch," said Coach Joanna Settles.
The Panthers put Oskaloosa on the line a few times, too, and foul trouble kept Ita, one of the Panther starters, on the bench for a while.
"I told her, 'We need you in the game!'" Settles said. "Phipps and Ita on the boards were key to the win."
The pair combined for 19 rebounds on the night.
Ita also led the team in scoring with 13 points; Mary Wester contributed 12.
"(Oskaloosa) really keyed in on Taryne (Shull), and tried to shut her down," Settles said. "But we have a lot of players that will step up. Mary Wester had a great game."
Phipps also scored in double figures, putting up 11 points for the Panthers.
Natalie Myers tallied eight points, and with the tight defense focused on her, Shull chipped in four points. Taylor and Hannah Becker had one point each.
After dropping the first two games of the season to ranked Class 5A opponents, the Mt. Pleasant girls have now won five of their last six games, including the last three straight. They are 5-3 overall and remain 2-1 in the Southeast Conference.
They will look for their fourth straight win against West Branch on Thursday when they kick off a varsity girls' and boys' doubleheader at 6 p.m. at Mt. Pleasant Community High School.

I have 2 DVD drives: ASUS DVD-E616P3 and Samsung SH-S202H(TS-H632H).
If I choose to scan for PIPO errors for the Asus drive with dvdinfo then it
says that this drive is not suitable for PIPO scanning. Scanning with
dvdinfo for the Samsung drive goes fine.
The Nero cdspeed tells me the opposite:
the Samsung drive cannot be scanned for PIPO errors and the Asus drive is scanned normally.
What are the commands( or methods ) specific to the Asus drive that return the PIPO information ?

Local scout earns top award
After two years of preparing and another year of waiting for the ceremony, River Falls resident and Girl Scout Annie Stewart finally received her Gold Award Sunday, June 12.
The Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout can earn.
One year ago, Stewart held a fair in Ezekiel Lutheran Church's dining room.
There was a cooking demonstration, presentations on healthy snacks and living a healthier lifestyle by a dietician from the River Falls Area Hospital who gave and handouts on healthy eating.
Stewart also distributed free copies of a cookbook she created with healthy, easy-to-make recipes.
"I had wanted to show the rest of the community that it's possible to eat healthy on a budget," said Stewart, a 2011 graduate of Mounds Park Academy in Maplewood.
Stewart worked with local chef Tony Leone of The West Wind Supper Club, and the River Falls Community Food Pantry to create her cook book.
She made sure the recipes could be made with foods available from the food pantry.
The recipes are all easy to cook. Many can even be made without a stove.
Stewart and her father tried many of the recipes themselves. Stewart said her personal favorite is a chili recipe.
"I just like it because it's really simple, but it tastes really good, and it's filling," said Stewart.
It took Stewart a year to prepare the event last summer, and another year before that to complete all the leadership, career exploration and community service prerequisite that Girl Scouts are required to complete before attempting a Gold Award project.
After finishing the project, Stewart had to wait for the rest of the girls in the Girl Scouts of Minnesota and Wisconsin River Valleys councils to finish their projects, before the award ceremony on June 12.
"It is just really good to be done and to have gotten the award," Stewart said.
"It's taught me all the different steps that I need to take in order to do this type of event and it's also given me a lot of self confidence and shown me how to be a good leader."
In addition to the fair, Stewart held two fundraisers to collect money and canned goods for the food pantry. She raised $100 and 10 bags of food.
Stewart was one of 136 girls to receive their Gold Awards this spring.

Waterloo, Ontario: Three Cities in Canada's Technology Triangle
You might call the Waterloo region—which encompasses the cities of Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge—some "intellectual property." Here, you'll find two major research universities, the University of Waterloo and Wilfried Laurier University, as well as Conestoga College. These institutions lend the area the vibe of both high-minded academia and upbeat college town. Beyond the flocks of students and professors, though, the Waterloo area also forms the rough points of Canada's technology triangle, where hundreds of tech firms, as well as big-name companies like BlackBerry, maintain a strong presence.
Despite its booming business and education sectors, Waterloo maintains plenty of small town charm thanks in large part to its ample green spaces and trails. One favorite trail is the 45km Kissing Bridge Trailway, which passes through the last covered bridge still standing in Ontario. Known colloquially as the Kissing Bridge, the rustic red structure offers a scenic place to snap a photo or steal a smooch.

Beginning with May 29, 1919, when photographs of the solar eclipse confirmed the truth of Einstein's theory of relativity, Johnson goes on to describe Freudianism, the establishment of the first Marxist state, the chaos of "Old Europe", the Arcadian 20s, and the new forces in China and Japan. Also discussed are Karl Marx, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Roosevelt, Gandhi, Castro, Kennedy, Nixon, the '29 crash, the Great Depression, Roosevelt's New Deal, and the massive conflict of World War II.
©1983 Paul Johnson; (P)1988 Blackstone Audio Inc.
"Johnson's insights are often brilliant and of value in their startling freshness." (Los Angeles Times)
"Frequently surprises, even startles us with new views of past events and fresh looks at the characters of the chief world movers and shakers, in politics, the military, economics, science, religion, and philosophy of six decades." (The Wall Street Journal)
"Truly a distinguished work of history...Modern Times unites historical and critical consciousness. It is far from being a simple chronicle, though a vast wealth of events and personages and historical changes fill it....We can take a great deal of intellectual pleasure in this book." (The New York Times)
"The Anti-Howard Zinn"
Paul Johnson is a journalist turned historian. He is an excellent writer, meaning, he writes well. Given his age and education in England, he is going to form a killer sentence. He explains his theories well and gives a great narrative flow to his take on forces of history.
This book is not for everyone. It should be read widely, but given current trends in academia, it will not be. This is the opposite of A People's History of the United States. That is going to enrage some people and please others. But it is just one more voice speaking and should be heard. His grasp of history (going back to antiquity) is astonishing and seemingly nonchalant. It is amazing what he references. This is more of a history-as-biography as opposed to ideological concepts. Johnson believes history is made by individuals. And you get them in all arenas, political, ideological, and artistic.
This is a history of the western world from the 1920s (he posits that the confirmation of Einstein's theory is the beginning of the "modern" age) through the 1990s. The book derides moral relativism, defends Nixon, hates Communism, and describes the 1960s as "America's Suicide Attempt".
But he backs his theories up with abundant facts. There are some errors in the book, which is going to happen in a book this large. I do not feel they detract from the overall thesis. It is a great companion to his "A History of the American People". (The audio, which I have, is done by Nadia May, too.) A knowledge of Latin phrases is helpful.
Johnson has opinions and is not afraid to share them. I consider this more honest than a lot of histories that I read. (Read Rick Perlstein's arrogant Nixonland, and be astonished by his inherent venom toward Nixon and the implicit belief one would agree with him.) At least Johnson is explicit. You don't have to agree with him, but he presents his argument lucidly. Modern Times is therefore not objective, but what book is? He is a very religious man and blames the 20th century's "death of God" for things like fascism, Nazism, Communism, and the every-increasing power of the state filling in the vacuum left by religion. It is a book which praises the individual and not groups. His disdain for "-isms" is because they go after races, classes, groups, but does not create wealth. Johnson is an ardent capitalist.
Modern Times is also hilarious. I am not sure whether Johnson is intentionally funny or just writes so well that you find yourself laughing when he hits the nail on the head, but I laughed a lot. (If you are new to Johnson, check out his three-hour interview on C-Span's "In Depth" first. You'll get an idea from where he comes and might find the humor I did.)
This book is by a strong writer and historian and does not invite passive reading (or listening). His statements invite you to argue back, to put the book aside and ruminate on passages and theories, to get angry, to laugh. Not a bad feat.
Here is a good example. Johnson believes Lenin is the primogeniture of the horrors of the 20th century, "'Once Lenin had abolished the idea of personal guilt, and had started to 'exterminate' (a word he frequently employed) whole classes, merely on account of occupation and parentage, there was no limit to which this deadly principle might be carried. There is no essential moral difference ... between destroying a class and destroying a race. Thus the practice of genocide was born.''
Naida May is a very competent narrator. She does have a difficult time with some foreign words and phrases, as well as some names. It can be distracting at times. I think the book is better with a female voice. I also think she gets the humor of many of the passages and hits a few punchlines. The English accent also helps.
I have this both in hard copy and as an audio book. I would argue that this is a difficult book to listen to because it so easily makes one think. Next thing you know, five minutes passed without you having listened to them. This is a book of breathtaking scholarship and insight. Enjoy.
"Relevant History"
I can see why this was a bestseller when it came out. History means more to me now than when I was in high school and college. Most history books recite dry facts without insightful connections to the significant meaning behind the events. Other so called modern day history books are either so politically correct that they only focus on the sins of the Western world or are so biased to the left or the right that the reader feels manipulated and intellectually bankrupt.
This audio book is well read and is consistently interesting. I highly recommend this work.
"Very Interesting"
I have learned so many intesting things from this book. It gives you details and color to events that you have heard of and some that you haven't. It is great framework for understanding the world that you were born into.
I have listened to about 20 books from audible this year and this is the first one that was so good that I felt compelled to tell others. I highly recommend it to anyone.
"Unconventional wisdom"
This is a very entertaining history, well read and well recorded. It offers a fresh look at some familiar personalities and events. You might also enjoy The Glory and the Dream by William Manchester.
"Excellent book, flawed recording performance"
Johnson's work is excellent. It is wide ranging, fair and understanding. (Despite an earlier reviewer's statement that this is history according to Ayn Rand and that all Republicans are praised, etc.--well, those claims are outright false. He presents fairly, without bias. It's history, not campaigning.)
The recording performance by Nadia May, however, is not so excellent. She has a particular manner of speaking, with her thick British accent, which causes her to swallow syllables repeatedly--the volume drops to inaudibility after a stressed word, or a word gets shortened to a length that makes it near impossible to hear. If the syllable is a whole word, you will lose the whole word. Sometimes it's as many as three words rushed through with a drop in volume and a clipping of the word or words, and the sense is gone. These things happen again and again in the recording, and I'm actually surprised her producer didn't notice it (unless, perhaps, he or she speaks English in the same way). Also, the bad accents for quotations---Russian, French, German, Slav (but oddly, no attempt to quote Americans with an American accent--I wonder why?)---are kind of funny. However, they do serve the purpose of letting the listener know when a quotation has begun and ended.
"Fun, but use with caution"
This is a non-standard sweep through 20th Century intellectual and moral history from a contrarian/right-of-center point of view. It's much more interesting than most works of this scope because Johnson is very opinionated and says just what he thinks, and he does it with some panache. I don't think it he is always correct (I'd still take FDR over Calvin Cooolidge) but I was never bored. It was no doubt a messy, ugly, bloody Century, and there can't be much argument over who the true monsters were. Lots of fun, but don't let this be your only guide.
"The purpose of history is to inform."
M. Times is a course of study rather than a story. It focuses deeply into the numbers and data that build conclusions so that one reading is not enough. It is a refereence that should be revisited often.
The author does not accept widely held beliefs. He goes out and does his own research and challenges the Zinns and Schlesengers who intimidate the main stream of modern history.
There can be no primary scene in an epic but personally I like the author's contrast of production capabilities among Soviet, Axis, British and American economies during wwii.
One is not moved by the catastrophe that was the 20th century. One is numbed by it.
The author must be a very brave man.
"Excellent book, poor recording"
Low in the top 30th percentile - content would be top 10% but the recording is almost unbearable.
I think she did a fine job although as an American, her accent makes her harder to understand. However it is truly the poor recording quality that makes this a problem. I'm an audio engineer myself, so these things irritate me greatly. If this was properly processed with eq and compression especially, it would be a MUCH more enjoyable listen probably 4 star)! Also, there is background noise like voices in the adjacent room. This is also distracting. I also think that the narrator's use of French and German accents are superfluous.
No way!
"Challenging for a liberal to read"
Johnson has a great sense of narrative and real moral outrage about the evils of communist and fascist totalitarianism. For this liberal it was a stunning and provocative view of history from the conservative angle.
That said, he refuses to criticize dictators who were on the US side and even excuses their crimes in a way he never excuses communists. The chapter on the Spanish Civil War is absurd, and his critiques of intellectuals and "east coast elites" are simplistic and Nixonian in their transparent resentment.
"Bracingly opinionated (and wrongheaded)"
Paul Johnson thinks Dag Hammarskjold was a conniving sneak and Patrice Lamumba was a thug. He thinks the Great Depression would have corrected itself and that Franklin Roosevelt's interventions made it worse. He thinks Calvin Coolidge and Herbert Hoover are vastly underrated as presidents. He thinks the Watergate scandal was a media-driven witch hunt, ignoring the fact that Richard Nixon really WAS a conniving sneak who used his office to subvert the electoral process, not to mention the judicial system.
So why bother to read him at all? Because as wrong-headed as he can be, he also writes brilliantly - and Nadia May, the narrator, sounds (as always) like she's genuinely enjoying herself. Johnson is old-fashioned in more ways than one. He writes long narrative paragraphs that seem to go on and on, and yet I would get to the end of the chapter (or the book) and realize with astonishment how much ground had been covered and how absorbed I'd been for hour after hour. The transitions within a chapter are subtle. He might start out talking about the first Polish pope and end up talking about the last Shah of Iran. Topics rise and merge and fade away in a relentless march of interconnected facts.
And some of his insights are compelling. He writes eloquently of the damage done to governments everywhere by the hordes of professional politicians. He gives a gripping analysis of the many totalitarian regimes that sprang up in the 20th century (and in many cases disappeared before century's end). He covers everything in the middle 60 years of the 20th century from the space program and the Cuban missile crisis to the rise of OPEC and the Eurodollar. His perspective is truly global.
I wouldn't take him as the final word on anything. But he's written a good introduction to many of the pressing issues and conflicts of the previous century. Just keep in mind that given two possible explanations for an event, he's always going to choose the one most consistent with his conservative viewpoint; and that when he wrote the book, the Soviet Union was still a living, breathing entity.
