Class: "Electing the President: Voter Psychology and Candidate Strategy"
Instructor: Markus Prior is an associate professor of politics and public affairs and co-director of the Center for the Study of Democratic Politics at Princeton. Prior's current research focuses on understanding the origins of political interest and the determinants of political knowledge. Prior, who came to Princeton in 2003, earned his master's degree from Ohio State University and his Ph.D. from Stanford University. Prior's 2007 book, "Post-Broadcast Democracy: How Media Choice Increases Inequality in Political Involvement and Polarizes Elections," examined how politics in the United States has been changed by the evolution of media over the past half-century. The book won the 2009 Goldsmith Book Prize, awarded by Harvard University's Joan Shorenstein Center.
Description: The course examines how campaigns affect voters. The primary focus is on the nature of modern campaigns and their impact on people's reasoning and voting behavior. Students get an overview of different explanations of how people make voting decisions and how people's voting behavior is best understood. "I want to give students an understanding of what campaign organizations do, what type of strategy they appear to be applying and why, and what that looks like from the voters' perspective," Prior said. While voters occasionally have face-to-face interaction with candidates, most of their exposure to campaigns comes from the media and the campaigns themselves. "So we have to cover campaigns, the media and citizens — each from their own point of view — and then we try to bring those perspectives together and see how that makes an election campaign," Prior said.
One of the underlying questions addressed by the class: Do campaigns actually matter? "There are still a few people who say campaigns really don't matter at all. There are others who say campaigns are hugely influential," Prior said. "Some people might say they manipulate voters. Others would say they don't manipulate voters but educate them and allow people to realize their own preferences and translate their own interests into a vote choice that is good for them." The difficulty in providing a clear-cut answer to the basic question is one of the challenges of the class, Prior said. "It takes a big tool kit, and I try to teach students a lot about how we use the instruments of social science," he said. "When we use these instruments carefully, we can answer important questions but even then we have to always caution that there is uncertainty. That's just how science works."
Prior said the class evolves each time he teaches it as political science research and literature advance. New this semester, for example, is a lecture on "micro-targeting" and the idea that campaigns have become very adept at this technique of targeting individual voters or narrow groups of voters with messages. "For the past 10 years, that has been talked about and speculated about a lot among media folks and campaign folks, but it was impossible to verify," Prior said. "Now there are political scientists who study this systematically. And I'm feeling comfortable talking about it because I'm learning from my colleagues' work in this area."
Perspective on 2012: Prior said interest in the class from students is generally higher during presidential election years, but he cautions that the class isn't specifically about the current campaign. "It's a class about presidential elections in the U.S. and what factors are important," Prior said. "But whether or how they mattered in 2012 we won't quite know. It takes time to figure these things out."
Still, lessons of past elections can be useful as the current race comes down to the wire. "There's a structure to campaigns that is the same every time," Prior said. "For example, as we get close to Election Day the candidates have to make a choice about where to focus their advertising. Those kinds of choices come about the same way every four years, and the baseline expectations about which states might be in play vary surprisingly little. We've been talking about the same swing states now for three or four or five elections — states like Ohio and Florida. In that sense, I don't think it's so hard to make the case that we can use the past to understand the present or maybe even the future."
Students say: Kevin Whitaker, a senior who is majoring in economics, said he has found the weekly precept that accompanies the twice-weekly lectures especially valuable. Each week a student and Prior lead the discussion among 15 students, covering issues from the lectures and course readings. "Professor Prior really challenges us in precept to get beyond the top-level findings from the readings and actually understand how the studies work and what the purpose of everything is," Whitaker said.
Duncan Hosie, a freshman who plans to major in either politics or the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, said the class has already helped him better interpret political news. "For example, we read research that suggests that many of the volatile fluctuations in collective preference polling between 'likely' voters and 'unlikely' voters stems from temporary changes in voter enthusiasm and not necessarily lasting changes in public opinion," Hosie said. "When I looked at crosstabs [cross tabulations] from polls after events that amplified Democratic enthusiasm, like the Democratic convention, and Republican enthusiasm, like Romney's debate performance, I saw this phenomenon occurring in real life."

International Day Against DRM: fight deliberately crippled technology
This Friday, May 3rd 2013, FSFE is joining the 8th international "Day against DRM" campaign in the call to end Digital Restrictions Management (DRM). The fight against DRM has been gathering momentum in the past weeks. Freedom activists rallied against DRM in HTML5, stressing this technology's harmful effects on innovation and user's freedom. On today's Day Against DRM, our sister organisation the Free Software Foundation will deliver the petition signatures opposing DRM in HTML5 to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)in Boston.
You still have a few hours to take action: join FSFE, FSF and 25 other organisations defending digital freedom by signing the petition against DRM in HTML5.
By accepting to implement DRM in HTML5, W3C would endanger interoperability and open the door to the implementation of restrictive technologies in the heart of the internet.
Device manufacturers and corporate copyrights holders have already been massively infecting their products with user-hostile DRM. Tablets, mobile phones and other minicomputers are sold with numerous restrictions embedded that cripple users freedom. The proposal at table in W3C goes even further.
DRM creates damaged goods that users cannot control or use freely. It requires users to give-up control of their computers and restricts access to digital data and media. Fight it: use today's international Day against DRM to spread the word and make yourself heard!

1The words of David's son, Qoheleth, king in Jerusalem:* a
2Vanity of vanities,* says Qoheleth,
vanity of vanities! All things are vanity!b
Vanity of Human Toil
3What profit have we from all the toil
which we toil at under the sun?* c
4One generation departs and another generation comes,
but the world forever stays.
5The sun rises and the sun sets;
then it presses on to the place where it rises.
6Shifting south, then north,
back and forth shifts the wind, constantly shifting its course.
7All rivers flow to the sea,
yet never does the sea become full.
To the place where they flow,
the rivers continue to flow.
8All things are wearisome,*
too wearisome for words.
The eye is not satisfied by seeing
nor has the ear enough of hearing.d
9What has been, that will be; what has been done, that will be done. Nothing is new under the sun!e 10Even the thing of which we say, "See, this is new!" has already existed in the ages that preceded us.f 11There is no remembrance of past generations;g nor will future generations be remembered by those who come after them.*
Twofold Introduction. 12I, Qoheleth, was king over Israel in Jerusalem, 13and I applied my mind to search and investigate in wisdom all things that are done under the sun.h
A bad business God has given
to human beings to be busied with.
14I have seen all things that are done under the sun, and behold, all is vanity and a chase after wind.* i
15What is crooked cannot be made straight,
and you cannot count what is not there.*
16j Though I said to myself, "See, I have greatly increased my wisdom beyond all who were before me in Jerusalem, and my mind has broad experience of wisdom and knowledge," 17yet when I applied my mind to know wisdom and knowledge, madness and folly, I learned that this also is a chase after wind.k
18For in much wisdom there is much sorrow;
whoever increases knowledge increases grief.*
* [1:1] David's son…king in Jerusalem: the intent of the author is to identify himself with Solomon. This is a literary device, by which the author hopes to commend his work to the public under the name of Israel's most famous sage (see 1 Kgs 5:9–14).
* [1:2] Vanity of vanities: a Hebrew superlative expressing the supreme degree of futility and emptiness.
* [1:3] Under the sun: used throughout this book to signify "on the earth."
* [1:8] All things are wearisome: or, "All speech is wearisome."
* [1:11] Movement in nature and human activity appears to result in change and progress. The author argues that this change and progress are an illusion: "Nothing is new under the sun."
* [1:14] A chase after wind: an image of futile activity, like an attempt to corral the winds; cf. Hos 12:2. The ancient versions understood "affliction, dissipation of the spirit." This phrase concludes sections of the text as far as 6:9.
* [1:15] You cannot count what is not there: perhaps originally a commercial metaphor alluding to loss or deficit in the accounts ledger.
* [1:18] Sorrow…grief: these terms refer not just to a store of knowledge or to psychological or emotional pain. Corporal punishment, sometimes quite harsh, was also employed frequently by parents and teachers.

What's the best way to find a good discount Realtor in Chicopee?
If you know the right tools to use, it can be a quick and easy process. It's just a matter of knowing where to look.
Traditional Chicopee Real Estate Brokers
Traditional real estate brokerages in Chicopee typically charge 6% commission, which is 6% of the selling price of the house.
So, if you list with an agent and sell for a gross price of $500k you would pay $30k in commissions to the agent.
However, an individual Chicopee real estate agent cannot directly accept any money in their name. They must work with a brokerage. And their brokerage must split the commission with any cooperating brokers before taking their own cut.
So that $30k commission gets divided into four different groups: the buyer's agent and buyer's broker, and the seller's agent and seller's broker.
Out of that $30k commission, the agent who worked for you only gets $7,500. That's before they pay any other office fees, license fees, association dues, insurance, taxes, and for all the marketing that attracted you and sold the home.
In exchange, your agent provides the following services:
- Preparing a home value estimate
- Listing your property on the MLS and websites
- Host open houses
- Create and print flyers
- Screen buyers and other agents
- Negotiate and prepare contracts
- Coordinate the transaction through closing
With all that work, agents can find they are spending more than they make.
According to the data, home buyers and sellers still overwhelmingly find value in using a Chicopee Realtor. Last year, 90% of Chicopee home sellers used a Realtor. Almost 75% of sellers said they hired the first agent they met. They didn't shop around for better deals, leaving little reason for many agents to offer better deals.
However, there are other options if you want to sell your home.
Use UpNest to Find a Discount Realtor
UpNest lets home sellers find great discount realtors for free quickly. Just input in your location and view the top selling discount realtors near you.
With UpNest, you can easily view the best agents around at a significantly better rate than traditional brokers. They can give back sizable home buyer rebates to their clients, without having to sacrifice the level of service offered.
They are willing to do this, and it makes sense for them because the UpNest system saves them time and money connecting with sellers.
Visit UpNest to find Chicopee discount Realtors.
FSBO or For Sale by Owner
For those allergic to paying commissions, there is the For Sale By Owner (FSBO) route. You go down to the local Home Depot, grab yourself some yard signs and a Sharpie, hit the internet and look for free websites to put your house listing on, create and print some flyers, find a real estate attorney, carefully screen any buyers you get (amongst the massive flock of agents calling), and try to strike a deal.
According to the Chicopee Association of Realtors:
- Just 10% of Chicopee home sales are FSBOs.
- FSBO houses typically sell slower and for less than using a Realtor.
If you know someone, like a family member or close friend who wants to buy your home, then you can do it as a FSBO. You may save some money. Just make sure you expect a lower sales price, as well as real estate attorney and closing fees. It won't be as free as you might think.
Flat Fee Real Estate Services in Chicopee
Chicopee also has several 'flat fee' real estate services. These hybrid services provided by budget Realtors and brokerages offer homeowners a fixed fee for listing their property on the MLS. This may also include syndication to other popular Realtor websites. These services advertise options ranging from less than $100 to around $700.
For this you can get your house listed on the MLS. However, that alone is not going to sell your home. If you want any interest in your home you will have to offer buyer's agents a competitive commission. Expect the commission to be at least 2.5% to 3% of the sales price, otherwise, they just won't show it.
If you decide you want any help, expect to pay more. For example: lockboxes for showings, contracts, flyers, listings for more than 3 months. If you want more help with negotiations or showings, or managing the transaction, you may have to negotiate a commission with the 'flat fee' agency.
This can be a viable way to sell if you know all the ins and outs of selling in a fast-moving market. Be mindful that if you do pursue this method, it doesn't offer the same protection an agent would to help limit your liability.
Low Commission & Discount Realtors in Chicopee
There are also Realtors and brokerages which offer lower and discounted commission rates for selling your home. This comes in a variety of forms. It can simply be offering lower commission rates or using commission rebates.
What is vital here is to compare experience, attentiveness, rates, and the services provided. You need a clear picture of the value you are getting for your money. You can get a good deal on commissions, but only if your home also gets sold.
Services like UpNest provide the best way to quickly compare agents. You can see important agent stats like commission rates, closing percentage, reviews, and free services.
The Best Way to Find Discount Realtors in Chicopee
There are a number of great options available to Chicopee home sellers who want to find a discount real estate agent. You can try to find a discount Realtor on your own, but many discount agents provide lower quality services. You'll have to be very careful when considering your options. There are also flat fee and low commission rate agencies, both of which may result in a worse service and a lower price for your home. FSBO is another option, but you'll make way less money with a FSBO sale. We don't recommend FSBO under any circumstances.
Then there is UpNest, which puts you in touch with the best discount Realtors in Chicopee in minutes. UpNest matches you with top discount Realtors, and saves you money on your commission. Best of all, it's totally free!
If you are looking for the best way to find discount Realtors, then UpNest should be your first choice.
Everything in home sales is negotiable! You should contact a number of real estate agents and consider the commissions and free services they offer, then negotiate a better deal. Factors like a high home value, a competitive market, and a quick expected turnaround can all be used as leverage in negotiations.
Most realtors in Chicopee charge a 6% commission, which is 6% of the selling price of the house. For example: you list with an agent and sell for a gross price of $500,000, you would pay $30,000 in commissions.

Greenpeace reports that its vessel, the Arctic Sunrise, has been boarded by the Russian Coast Guard after a protest against oil and gas drilling in the Russian Arctic.
The crew of the vessel tweeted throughout the drama. A tweet by Greenpeace HQ indicated that everyone was safe but that the crew was not "in control of the ship at this point."
Greenpeace says that the vessel is in international waters in the Barents Sea. It said the confrontation began yesterday, when the Russian Coast Guard arrested two Greenpeace activists who had climbed aboard a drilling platform that belongs to Gazprom, the state oil company.
During the initial protest the Coast Guard fired 11 warning shots across the bow of the Arctic Sunrise.
Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) confirmed that the border guards had fired warning shots "due to the genuine threat to the security of the Russian oil and gas complex, and failure to obey a lawful order to stop illegal activity."
At 6 pm local time today, the Arctic Sunrise crew tweeted that there was a helicopter overhead:
BREAKING: Helicopter hovering above Arctic Sunrise, rope dropping down. We think the Coast Guard is boarding us. #SaveTheArctic
Coast Guard commandos rappelled onto the vessel, as the some of the activists took refuge in the ship's communications room:
Russian authorities onboard with guns. They are breaking into the comms room now. #savethearctic
Other crew members were detained:
Latest from the deck: Crew are sitting on their knees on the helipad with guns pointed at them. #Savethearctic
As the commandos began to break into the communications room:
This is pretty terrifying. Loud banging. Screaming in Russian. They're still trying to kick in the door. #savethearctic
About twenty minutes after the final tweet from the crew, Greenpeace HQ took over confirming that there was no more contact with the crew:
No contact to the Arctic Sunrise anymore. Greenpeace will continue to tweet updates here #SaveTheArcrtic
That was followed shortly afterward by another tweet from Greenpeace saying that the Arctic Sunrise was not in Russian territorial waters when the Coast Guard boarded it:
Last known GPS coordinates we received from the ship: 69-19-53N : 57-16-53E. They are in international waters. pic.twitter.com/eQtB60XrQC

Political observers are still working through the rubble of the unprecedented $6 billion presidential campaign, but we're getting a steady stream of reaction and analysis.
The liberal advocacy groups U.S. PIRG and Demos have one of the most striking numerical comparisons: 1.4 million to 61.
That is, it took more than 1.4 million donors for President Obama and Mitt Romney to raise $285.2 million through one traditional fundraising avenue — the campaign's small, unitemized contributions of $200 or less.
It took 61 wealthy donors to give the same amount of money through a new player — the unregulated superPAC.
Specifically, the $285.2 million came from a minimum of 1,425,500 donors, most of them giving to the Obama campaign. But it would be matched by merely 61 of the 132 donors who gave at least $1 million to superPACs involved in the presidential race, like the pro-Romney Restore Our Future and the pro-Obama Priorities USA Action.
The U.S. PIRG-Demos report says those 132 largest donors gave an average $4.7 million each to superPACs.
On Friday, George Washington University Law School assembles some of the mavens of the political money world for a post-election assessment of the hot-button issues of political money and voting rights.
And a few groups already are using the numbers from the just ended election to launch efforts to change campaign finance law: The watchdog group Common Cause wants a constitutional amendment to undo Citizens United, the 2010 Supreme Court ruling that, more than anything else, uncorked the big money; and the liberal United Republic, which says it is "dedicated to ending the corrupting influence of money in politics," unveiled a proposal on Tuesday seeking online "citizen co-sponsors" of a plan to overhaul political finance and lobbying laws.

Pope Benedict XVI's announcement that he would step down at the end of the month is stunning but not surprising for a man with experience running a critical sector of the Vatican hierarchy while his predecessor John Paul II lingered in extremis as absolute ruler of a spiritual empire of a billion living souls. The last years of John Paul II, still much admired since his death on April 2, 2005, were excruciating for the Curia, as the organization's chief decisionmaker slowly but publicly withered away in the throes of what was believed to be Parkinson's disease. Many of Benedict's pronouncements over the past eight years or so — including a few made while he was yet Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger — have led observers to believe he was considering resignation rather than allowing the Catholic Church to go through the ordeal again.
As cited by Thomas Reese in the National Catholic Reporter, Benedict had already emphatically concluded that a Pope may resign if, as the Pontiff said in Light of the World, his wide-ranging 2010 interview with the journalist Peter Seewald, "he is no longer physically, psychologically and spiritually capable of handling the duties of his office, then he has a right and, under some circumstances, also an obligation to resign." But Benedict added, "One can resign at a peaceful moment or when one simply cannot go on. But one must not run away from danger and say someone else should do it."
(MORE: Pope Benedict XVI to Resign, Citing 'Advanced Age')
The resignation of a Pope is not unprecedented. Gregory XII resigned in 1415 in an act that would restore the unity of the Catholic Church, which had been fractured by schism for nearly 70 years. Gregory, who would live on for two more years, would see the election of his replacement in the orthodox line of succession to Saint Peter. Unless Pope Benedict XVI's health deteriorates rapidly — he cited it as his reason for stepping down at the end of February — he too will see the election of his successor. And that is likely to do more than extend the Petrine tradition: Benedict XVI may actually have influence over — though not a vote — who the next Pontiff will be, furthering the chances of candidates who will continue his policies. If so, this resignation would not just have been for health reasons but will have important, if not historic, political implications. Benedict isn't likely to be running away from anything.
The conclave that will elect the next Pope has yet to be assembled, but even if he isn't present in the Sistine Chapel, Benedict's living presence as the Emeritus Pontiff is bound to influence the vote. (He is past the age of eligibility of casting a vote.) This sort of informal influence has proved powerful in other cultures — particularly Japan and China, where "retired" shoguns and Emperors continued to make pivotal decisions. Thus, just by living, Joseph Ratzinger, by then the ex-Pope Benedict XVI with a title yet to be decided, will be able to champion his conservative theological and social policies and stack the decks so that a successor of like mind and spirit is enthroned.
(MORE: Text of the Pope's Resignation Announcement)
That the Pope was physically weakening is no surprise to people who have watched his public appearances in St. Peter's. He has been more halting in his steps, slightly slower and more difficult to make out in his speech. His brother Georg, also a cleric, said that doctors had advised the Pope to stop making transoceanic trips. As Cardinal Ratzinger, the Pope had headed up what was probably the most efficient bureaucracy in the Vatican; so he would have been the first to notice that things were slagging. Indeed, he may have realized from the start of his papacy that he had ascended as an aging Pope — and not the young athletic Pontiff that John Paul was when he astounded the world with his surprise election as the first Pope from Poland.
Indeed, the Pope has made his share of impolitic statements and overseen a number of scandals. To be fair, he inherited the long-running priestly molestation scandal that has damaged the church's reputation deeply in many parts of the world, particularly the U.S. and Ireland. But the recent arrest and conviction of his manservant for passing on papal documents to a journalist (who eventually wrote a book about the less-than-savory inside workings of the Vatican) must have pained him. The convicted butler's reason for the revelations that emerged from the so-called theft: he was afraid Benedict was not getting all the information he needed to know about the running of the church. The idea that such organizational disarray had come right into his personal office must have pained the Pope and, if it reflected a failure in physical ability, contributed to his perception that the time had come to leave the papacy in healthier hands.
(PHOTOS: 25 of Pope Benedict's Best Hats)
The question, then, is who will be the next Pope. While Benedict has been assiduous, as had John Paul II, of expanding the global representation of the College of Cardinals, speculation has been rife in the Holy See that the Italian contingent, which had been almost the sole producers of Popes for centuries, wants the papacy back. They will have to deal with a host of conservative candidates from the rest of the world, particularly Latin America. (The last so-called great hope of liberal Catholics, the Jesuit Cardinal Carlo Martini died in August 2012.) The role of the Italians in the Curia, however, remains strong — at times perhaps stronger than any living Pope's. Every conclave develops its own dynamic and the world must simply wait for the white smoke to emerge from the Sistine Chapel to try to figure out what has happened. But in this particular case, a living Pope — along with the Holy Spirit — will be guiding the proceedings as well as the first steps of the next ruler of the Roman Catholic Church.

The Obstacle In Our Path!
In ancient times, a King had a boulder placed on a roadway. Then he hid himself and watched to see if anyone would remove the huge rock. Some of the king's wealthiest merchants and courtiers came by and simply walked around it. Many loudly blamed the King for not keeping the roads clear, but none did anything about getting the stone out of the way.
Then a peasant came along carrying a load of vegetables. Upon approaching the boulder, the peasant laid down his burden and tried to move the stone to the side of the road. After much pushing and straining, he finally succeeded.
After the peasant picked up his load of vegetables, he noticed a purse lying in the road where the boulder had been. The purse contained many gold coins and a note from the King indicating that the gold was for the person who removed the boulder from the roadway.
The peasant learned what many of us never understand. Every obstacle presents an opportunity to improve our condition.

Every few months since at least 2006, The New York Times has taken time out from brow-beating Evangelicals to praise them for supporting amnesty for illegal aliens.
Most of the "Evangelicals" the Times cites are liberal frauds, far from "unlikely allies" in amnesty, as alleged. It is a specialty of the left to pose as something they're not in order to create the impression of a zeitgeist. The only one I haven't seen quoted yet is the ACLU's minister, Barry Lynn.
The Times keeps touting Evangelicals for Amnesty as evidence of a "shift," a "change of heart" and a "secret weapon." Breaking the same news story every two months since 2006 isn't a shift; it's propaganda.
Any Evangelical promoting the McCain-Rubio amnesty plan has the moral framework of Planned Parenthood. Like the abortion lobby, they have boundless compassion for the people they can see, but none for those they can't see.
One Evangelical after another told the Times that they no longer believe Americans should have control over who immigrates here on the basis of having met illegal aliens in their pews. The millions harmed by illegal immigration are left out of the equation. They don't go to church here.
Similarly, the pro-choice crowd is brimming with compassion for girls who have gotten pregnant by accident. They're in high school, their whole lives are ahead of them, it's one mistake! The babies don't count because they're out of sight.
The Rev. David Uth, head pastor of First Baptist Orlando, said that based on "the stories out there in the pews" from illegals who "have made friends and who have become close with people here," there was momentum in his church to "do something to address their needs."
Mr. Uth and his parishioners will never hear stories from the thousands of Americans killed every year by illegal aliens. They won't be sitting in the pews with those murdered and maimed in Boston last month by a conspiracy of immigrants.
They won't hear from hospitals and school systems in border states forced into bankruptcy because they have to provide free services to illegals. They won't hear from farmers and ranchers whose livestock and property are stolen or destroyed by illegal aliens.
Jay Crenshaw, a parishioner at First Baptist Orlando, told the Times that he was a conservative Christian, but his views had changed "as a result of personal encounters with immigrants in church." After a fellow parishioner was arrested for driving illegally, "Mr. Crenshaw said he realized that his friend, an active church member who was supporting his mother and a brother" — by the way, so are you, readers! — "could be deported."
(You know who else's views changed as a result of a personal encounter with an illegal alien? The 31-year-old mother allegedly shot to death by illegal immigrant Jose Zarate in Arizona earlier this year because she wouldn't allow the 25-year-old to date her 13-year-old daughter.)
Noting that he had "a lot of compassion," Crenshaw explained that once you have "walked with someone and put a face and family behind the immigration issue, it very much personalizes it."
Unfortunately for educated Europeans desperate to escape their collapsing socialist societies being overridden with Muslims, Mr. Crenshaw has not met them and therefore cannot "personalize" their troubles. They're barred from coming here, and he's fine with that.
This new Christian ethic of compassion-by-personal-encounter is also bad news for the millions of American blue-collar workers unable to find work because of the massive influx of unskilled immigrants.
And there will be no compassion for the tens of millions of Americans who will never see a dime of their promised Social Security payments, even as their taxes go through the roof, because Mr. Crenshaw's compassion requires that this country turn itself into the welfare ward of the world.
This is the same moral courage that allows some of these ministers to rain fire and brimstone on gays, while never getting around to criticizing divorce. They don't know any gays — but they have lots of divorcees in their pews.
Principles do not vary depending on personal circumstances. But these so-called Evangelicals wouldn't know a principle unless it sat next to them in the pew.
Another Christian interviewed by the Times, Stewart Hall, also restricts his Christian compassion to those he can see. "It occurs to me," Hall said of the illegal immigrants in his church, "that if Jesus was sitting next to me, he would not care whether they were illegal or legal."
Would Jesus care if they were gay? Would he care if they'd had abortions? Because if that's the test for public policy, it's abortion-on-demand and gay marriage all around!
Moreover, it's not clear that Jesus wouldn't care how people came to this country. Did they come here in disobedience of the laws of God and of man? Was their first act on American soil to defy the law of the nation?
And why can't Jesus love them if they're back in Mexico? Does the Bible say that Christ died only for U.S. legal residents? Maybe that passage is buried in the Book of Malachi. (I never read that one carefully!)
Adopting a classic liberal trait, these Christians incapable of abstract thinking seem to believe that true compassion consists of giving away something that isn't theirs. They repeatedly cite the biblical passage about treating the stranger as you would yourself. But I note that they don't invite strangers to move into their houses, sleep in their beds, eat their food and have sex with their wives.
No, they demand that we transform our country into a bankrupt hellhole so that they can feel good about themselves. But every American has an interest in what kind of country this is. America isn't theirs to give away out of phony "Christian" compassion.

Tools for interfacing with other languages
Haskell's built-in features for interfacing to other languages are formally defined in the Foreign Function Interface (FFI) section of the Haskell 2010 Language Report. You may learn it by example at the IO inside guide.
See also Web services and RPC.
The following tools and libraries either simplify interfacing to C or allow interfacing to other languages and environments (COM, JVM, Python, Tcl, Lua...).
- inline-c
- inline-c uses quasiquotation to seamlessly call C libraries and embed high-performance inline C code in Haskell modules.
- C->Haskell
- A lightweight tool for implementing access to C libraries from Haskell.
- c2hsc
- A tool to create Bindings-DSL based interface files for C libraries.
- Haskell FFI Binding Modules Generator (HSFFIG) is a tool that takes a C library include file (.h) and generates Haskell Foreign Functions Interface import declarations for items (functions, structures, etc.) the header defines.
- KDirect
- A tool to simplify the process of interfacing C libraries to Haskell. It is less powerful than HaskellDirect, but easier to use and more portable.
- libffi
- A binding to libffi, allowing C functions of types only known at runtime to be called from Haskell.
- inline-java
- Call any JVM function from Haskell
- java-bridge
- This package offers bindings to the Java Native Interface and a high level interface generator. There is an unofficial repository at [1] (not up-to-date)
See also the discussion on Haskell Cafe.
- cpython
- Bindings that allow Haskell code to call CPython code.
- MissingPy
- MissingPy is really two libraries in one. At its lowest level, MissingPy is a library designed to make it easy to call into Python from Haskell. It provides full support for interpreting arbitrary Python code, interfacing with a good part of the Python/C API, and handling Python objects. It also provides tools for converting between Python objects and their Haskell equivalents. Memory management is handled for you, and Python exceptions get mapped to Haskell Dynamic exceptions. At a higher level, MissingPy contains Haskell interfaces to some Python modules.
- MissingPy on hackage
- fficxx
- A Haskell-C++ Foreign Function Interface Generator
- Smarty
- An interface between Haskell and Squeak, a freely available Smalltalk language and environment.
- [2]
- lp2fp is a program-translator from Prolog to Haskell.
- HaskellScript
- HaskellScript is the collective name for all Haskell components, both tools and libraries, that allow interaction with the COM/ActiveX framework.
- TclHaskell
- TclHaskell is a haskell binding to Tcl-Tk that lets you build GUIs in Haskell. It is Haskell 98 compliant. It has been tested under hugs98 and ghc-4.04.
- CPlusPlusFromHaskell
- A hackish method calling C++ from Haskell.
- Re: [Haskell] C++ bindings.
- An e-mail describing how to link to C++
- HsLua
- Haskell interface to Lua scripting language (tested with GHC 6.6/6.8).
- hR
- Haskell interface to R
- Salsa
- An experimental .NET Bridge for Haskell.
- Erlang
- Impersonates an Erlang node on the network.
- Guide to Haskell's Foreign Function Interface
- Comparision of the different tools.
- Green Card
- Green Card is a foreign function interface preprocessor for Haskell, simplifying the task of interfacing Haskell programs to external libraries (which are normally exposed via C interfaces). Green Card is currently able to generate code compatible with Hugs and nhc. Green Card is compatible with the Glasgow Haskell Compiler (GHC), versions prior to 6.2.
- Green Card is not compatible with GHC versions 6.2 and later because Green Card uses a deprecated form of Foreign Function Interface (FFI) binding, _casm_: such old-style bindings were removed in GHC version 6.2. See ANNOUNCE: GHC version 6.2.
- HaskellDirect
- HaskellDirect is an Interface Definition Language (IDL) compiler for Haskell, which helps interfacing Haskell code to libraries or components written in other languages (C). An IDL specification specifies the type signatures and types expected by a set of external functions. One important use of this language neutral specification of interfaces is to specify COM (Microsoft's Component Object Model) interfaces, and HaskellDirect offers special support for both using COM objects from Haskell and creating Haskell COM objects. HaskellDirect groks both the OSF DCE dialect of IDL (including the various extensions introduced by the Microsoft IDL compiler) and the OMG IIOP/CORBA dialect. Not compatible with recent versions of GHC (6.6.1)
- A hybrid language of Java and Haskell.
- A Java Native Interface for Haskell. Allows Haskell to invoke Java code. Includes a tool to generate Haskell bindings for a Java library. Works for hugs and ghc under both Linux and Windows. (Based on Greencard, see above.)
- Haskell/Java VM Bridge
- A bridge to the Java virtual machine via JNI for Haskell.
- Lambada (PDF)
- A Haskell <=> Java inter-operation bridge. Inter-operation between Haskell and Java is provided by Lambada via the Java Native Interface (JNI), giving you a set of Haskell abstractions that lets you both call out to Java from Haskell *and* wrap up Haskell code behind a Java-callable veneer. Not compatible with recent versions of GHC (6.6.1)
- LambdaVM
- A set of patches and additions to GHC that let GHC compile from Core to JVM bytecode. Also has a FFI for calling native Java libraries.

From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Audie Cornish.
A standoff between federal agents and a Nevada rancher is over for now. Over the weekend, the Bureau of Land Management released about 400 head of cattle it had rounded up, fearing a violent confrontation. Militia members, including many with guns, had rallied in support of the rancher, Cliven Bundy, and his family. NPR's Ted Robbins has the story.
UNIDENTIFIED GROUP: No BLM. No BLM. No BLM.
TED ROBBINS, BYLINE: The situation came to a head on Saturday. Supporters confronted BLM rangers and local police near a holding pen where the cattle were being held beneath a highway overpass in the desert 80 miles east of Las Vegas. A federal officer asked one of Cliven Bundy's sons to help diffuse the situation.
UNIDENTIFIED MAN: I'll give you my honest word right here. I'm gonna walk you in so you can negotiate with your father up top.
ROBBINS: The BLM backed down. In exchange for keeping the crowd calm, the government allowed the Bundys to release their cattle back into the desert. The tension began last week when the BLM began enforcing two court orders against the Bundy family. Its cows were illegally grazing on about 600,000 acres of federal land after Cliven Bundy refused to pay grazing fees. The government says he owes more than a million dollars over the last two decades. Bundy says he owes $300,000. The amount is really not the point.
Cliven Bundy says he has ancestral rights to graze since his family's been doing it since the 1870s. His son, Ryan Bundy, told member station KNPR that the land doesn't even belong to the government. He says there's a larger constitutional issue.
RYAN BUNDY: How are these considered federal lands, all right? This is the issue. This is the crux of the issue, all right? We, the people of the United States, created the federal government through the Constitution of the United States.
ROBBINS: Bundy says the land actually belongs to the state of Nevada. It was the state's rights issue that brought the anti-federal protestors, including militia members, to the fight. For well more than a century, Matthew Pearce says Western ranchers have had a strained relationship with the government. Pearce studies Western ranching and the environment at the University of Oklahoma.
MATTHEW PEARCE: It's always kind of had that mindset of kind of looking warily towards the federal government, even though - especially in the case of public lands, in many cases, it depends upon the federal government for access to those lands.
ROBBINS: That access was challenged in the 20th century as new environmental laws were passed. In fact, the BLM was pushed to action because of the Center for Biological Diversity. The environmental group threatened to sue the BLM because the Bundy's cattle are trampling habitat set aside for the protected desert tortoise. Rob Mrowka of the center points out that the Bundys are the last ranchers left in Clark County, Nevada, because others can't make money anymore.
ROB MROWKA: The food source in the desert is just so sparse. The water is just so sparse. The heat takes such a toll on the cattle that it's just not a moneymaking deal.
ROBBINS: The Bundys, though, are not about to give up. Here's Ryan Bundy again.
BUNDY: We will do whatever it takes to protect our life, liberty and our property. And that's what every single American should also say also.
ROBBINS: Asked if that includes violence, Bundy wouldn't say. The BLM says it will continue to work to resolve the issue legally and administratively. Ted Robbins, NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

The Western Rite Vicariate of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America is a group of Orthodox Christian parishes throughout North America who worship using the Western Rite tradition. They number roughly 10,000 communicants in about twenty parishes and are under their local diocesan bishops, with the Right Reverend John (Abdalah), Bishop of Worcester and New England, as the Auxiliary Bishop with oversight of the Vicariate.
Before the Vicariate
The initial parishes received into the Orthodox Church as the Western Rite Vicariate did not consist of a new movement invented by the Antiochian Patriarchate or its North American archdiocese, but rather already had history within Orthodoxy, as Archpriest Paul W.S. Schneirla, Vicar General of the Western Rite, reports:
- The first major approach was made in the late nineteenth century by a Roman Catholic priest, John Joseph Overbeck [sic, referencing Joseph Julian Overbeck], who revised the Roman rite to conform to Orthodox standards, a fairly simple operation at that time. His proposal was accepted by the Russian Orthodox Holy Synod and he was encouraged and supported by interested missionary-minded Russians, but by the time of his death in the first decade of Twentieth Century, his movement had not succeeded and his converts were absorbed into Byzantine communities.
- At the turn of the century, the only Orthodox bishop in North America, the later Russian Patriarch Tikhon (Belavin) was approached by a group of Episcopalians, who asked to be allowed to continue the use of the American Book of Common Prayer rather than the Byzantine Rite. Bishop Tikhon petitioned the Holy Synod of Moscow and a commission of theologians was directed to provide a detailed examination and revision of the Prayer Book to be approved for the converts (the report was printed in the Journal of the Theological Academy of St. Petersburg, a summary in English was printed in The Russian American Messenger, a critical review by two Anglican scholars appeared as Tract XII of the Alcuin Club and a fuller version with notes appeared in The Orthodox Catholic Review, a publication of the Antiochian Archdiocese).
- Metropolitan Gerassimos (Messerah) of Beirut received a Western Rite movement in England before World War I, and Metropolitan Germanos (Shehadi), while resident in the United States, engaged in negotiations to receive a Roman Catholic movement in Mexico in the 1920s. Neither of these projects resulted in a continuing community. They are noticed here to demonstrate that an Orthodox Western Rite is not a recent project.
- Our present Western Rite Vicariate began with the return of a few parishes of converts that had dropped out of our diocese in the difficult days after World War I. There are presently some twenty centers. There are no invented services: the parishes use either the form approved for Overbeck or for Patriarch Tikhon, now a saint of the Church.[1]
Thus, in some sense, the Antiochian Archdiocese "inherited" the parishes which made up the Western Rite Vicariate.
Creation of the Vicariate
On May 31, 1958, Patriarch Alexander III (Tahan) of Antioch, in consultation with the heads of the other autocephalous Orthodox churches, authorized His Eminence Metropolitan Antony (Bashir) of New York to establish the Western Rite in the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America. In August of that year, Metropolitan Antony issued his edict establishing the Western Rite Vicariate in the archdiocese.
- The late Metropolitan Antony (Bashir) of the Syrian Antiochian Archdiocese, was approached by leaders and individuals of various bodies. He always made it his policy to thoroughly investigate such seekers of unity with the Church, and has had occasion to refuse several. At the same time, however, in desiring to extend and implement Orthodoxy's mission in America, Metropolitan Antony realized that there were also those outside of communion with the Church who were sincerely seeking the truth, who were desirous of becoming engrafted to the vine of Christ. After considerable meditation of the problem and taking into consideration the action of the Church elsewhere in the world, namely France, he came to the conclusion that the use of a Western rite in America could be of importance in facilitating the return to the Church of separated Western Christians in America. He turned for guidance to the late Patriarch Alexander III of Antioch who, in May, 1958, after consultation with the other Autocephalous Churches, gave an affirmative reply. Forwarding to the Metropolitan an Arabic translation of the famous 1936 Ukase of the Moscow Patriarchate, the Patriarch of Antioch authorized Metropolitan Antony to "take the same action, leaving to your Orthodox zeal and good judgment the right to work out the details in the local situations."[2]
The first Vicar General of the Western Rite Vicariate was Fr. Alexander Turner, who had served as bishop to those parishes before reception into the Antiochian Archdiocese.
The Vicariate today
Since its founding in 1958, the Western Rite Vicariate has nearly doubled in size and now consists of a rapidly growing dimension of the Church's mission in America [3], including 30 parishes and missions. Because of his association with the founding of the Western Rite in America, the Vicariate holds St. Tikhon of Moscow as its patron saint.
