Okay, so every time I go down to my basement I keep passing the bottle of Peppermint Mocha Kahlua staring at me from its perch on our bar. It's red and white bottle was just yelling at me to try it in a bread or down some with ice, so I decided to do both.
I rediscovered some interesting nut flours that I had in my refrigerator and decided to mix the toasted almond and hazelnut flours with some fresh milled rye flour. I really like the effect a soaker/scald has on a multi-grain bread so I mixed up some cracked wheat, red quinoa and bulgur wheat with some hot water. It is interesting how these ingredients sucked up every last bit of water as when I added them to the dough there was not a dry eye in the house or the bowl. The official way of calculating the hydration of a dough is to not include the water sucked up by the soaker, but I warn you this bread is a wet one especially due to the soaker.
I also deviated from my normal starter and used a 100% AP starter instead of my normal 65% starter. I also used a much smaller amount of starter mainly due to that I didn't have any more left to use. I used 222 grams of this starter versus the usual 425 grams of my dryer starter.
I have to say the end result of this bake was very satisfying. If you don't like moist bread, then this one is not for you as the final dough was probably the most moist I have made to date. The crumb melts in your mouth and you can really taste the nut flours but not really the Kahula. I thing the Kahlua definitely contributed to the moist crumb for sure.
And now for the directions if you are so inclined:
100 grams Cracked Wheat
100 grams Red Quinoa
60 grams Bulgar Wheat
250 grams Hot Water
Mix water in a bowl with other ingredients and let sit covered at room temperature for 1 hours or overnight.
Main Dough
222 grams Starter at 100% Hydration
200 grams Bread Flour (KAF)
65 grams Toasted Almond Flour (KAF)
65 grams Roasted Hazelnut Flour (KAF)
269 grams Freshly Ground Rye Flour
256 grams Peppermint Mocha Kahlua at room temperature
100 grams Water at room temperature
14 grams Sea Salt (or table salt)
I mixed the flours and starter together with all the liquids except for 50 grams of Kahlua and let them autolyes for 20 minutes. I then added the soaker and the rest of the Kahlua with the salt and mixed on speed #1 for 3 minute and #2 for 2 minutes. I then did a stretch and fold, rested the dough uncovered for 10 minutes. Since this dough is very wet I put it in an oiled bowl and did another stretch and fold, covered the dough and let it rest for 10 minutes. I did one more stretch and fold and let it rest out for another 2 hours after which I put it in the refrigerator until the next day.
The next day I let the dough sit out at room temperature for 2 hours. After 2 hours I formed it into a miche boule and put it in a floured banneton which has a cloth insert and let it rise covered for 2 hours. Make sure to either use a cloth insert or use a loaf pan as this dough is very, very moist.
After 2 hours or when the dough passes the poke test, score the loaf as desired and prepare your oven for baking with steam.
I warm my oven to 500 F. and once I put the loaf in the oven I add 1 cup of boiling water in a heavy-duty pan on the bottom shelf of my oven and lower the temperature to 450 degrees F.
Bake the loaf for around 40-50 minutes until the crust is nice and golden brown and reaches an internal temperature of 200 – 210 degrees F.

Emails show the State Department and the White House were much more involved in watering down Benghazi talking points than previously acknowledged. NBC's Andrea Mitchell reports.
Continuing questions over the Obama administration's handling of the Sept. 11, 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi are prompting a fresh round of scrutiny aimed at the State Department and its former head Hillary Clinton, with critics questioning Clinton's leadership and involvement in the administration's public response to the violence that left four Americans dead.
On Friday, NBC News confirmed that the White House, with input from State Department officials, had edited talking points about the Benghazi attacks 12 times in the hours following the incident. Those edits included a scrubbing of references to terrorist warnings as well as to the al Qaeda-affiliated group Ansar al-Sharia.
The changes were suggested in part by State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland; administration officials with knowledge of her role told NBC News that Nuland raised "legitimate procedural concerns" intended to prevent prejudging of a fluid intelligence situation.
White House press secretary Jay Carney on Friday sought to clarify the administration's response to the talking points, and decried efforts to "make something political out of this." He added, "But the problem with that effort is that it's never been clear what it is they think they're accusing the administration of doing, because when it comes to who was responsible, we were very open about what we knew, what we thought we knew , what we did for a fact know, and the fact that it was an ongoing investigation."
Secretary of State John Kerry spoke to Andrea Mitchell in a Google Hangout about the Benghazi hearings, and the fact that despite the testimonies from several new officials, none of the information presented is really "new" to him.
Congressional sources tell NBC News that over about two hours on March 18, 96 emails regarding the interagency response to the attacks were available for review to congressional investigators. The highest ranking official on the email chain was then-CIA Director David Petraeus, who sent one email that was reviewed at the end of the talking points process. Nuland and White House deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes also specifically weighed-in on requested changes.
After the first edition of talking points referred to an al Qaeda-linked group, Nuland wrote "Why would we want the Hill fingering al Ansar al Sharia when we aren't doing that ourselves until we have an investigation result?"
Nuland also expressed concern that references to previous terror threats "could be abused by members to beat the State Department for not paying attention to agency warnings, so why would we want to feed that either? Concerned."
The administration officials with knowledge of Nuland's role told NBC News that she was concerned because the original talking points could potentially "prejudice the investigation," and possibly encouraged "a blame game before the investigation was complete."
"She did not make changes to the points," the officials added. "Rather, she asked for higher level interagency review, which the White House agreed was necessary. She played no further role in the handling of these points."
The new reports are sure to spark additional calls from Republicans for further investigation, with a focus on the role of Clinton – Nuland's boss – in managing the fallout from attacks.
Republican Sen. Rand Paul, whose 2016 ambitions are in the spotlight during a high-profile trip to Iowa on Friday, took a direct swing at Clinton – a possible Democratic White House rival – suggesting bluntly in an op-ed that her response to the attacks should disqualify her from a presidential run.
"The evidence we had in January already suggested that Mrs. Clinton ignored repeated requests for more security in Benghazi," he wrote in the Washington Times on Friday morning. "The new evidence we have today — and that continues to mount — suggests that at the very least, Mrs. Clinton should never hold high office again."
Clinton said at a Jan. 23 House hearing that she did not participate in the drafting of the talking points.
NBC News Senior Political Editor Mark Murray looks back on the political week that was, including attention on the Obama Administration's handling of the Benghazi attacks, the Senate's bipartisan "Gang of Eight" immigration plan, and Mark Sanford's win in South Carolina.
"I wasn't involved in the talking points process," she said. "As I understand it, as I've been told, it was a typical interagency process where staff, including from the State Department all participated, to try to come up with whatever was going to be made publicly available, and it was an intelligence product"
Sen. Lindsey Graham, a leading Republican questioning the Obama administration's response to the Benghazi attacks, said this week Clinton should return to Capitol Hill to testify, perhaps under subpoena, about the new revelations.
Conservative group CrossroadsGPS publicized a web video Friday highlighting testimony from self-described "whistleblowers" at a congressional hearing earlier this week and asking if Clinton was "part of a coverup.'
Democrats continue to dismiss the complaints as politically motivated.
Former White House senior adviser David Axelrod tweeted Friday that the furor over Benghazi is motivated by those hoping to undercut her presidential chances.
Can't help but feeling that If (former secretary of the interior) Ken Salazar were the front runner for '16, the House GOP be holding hearings on the BP oil spill," he wrote.

We've discussed important topics in the last few columns reliability, dynamic programming, and competitive algorithms. But now it's time to get down to serious business: basketball. Our goal is guide an imaginary coach in his decision about which play to call. We want to do this now, while there is plenty of time to prepare for the next season and beat the predictions for the next March Madness (see http://netprophetblog.blogspot.com/).
In basketball, shots beyond a certain distance are worth three points, while inside shots are worth only two points. The question we will ask is, "When should a team go for the three and when should it be happy with the two?"
The answer depends on many factors. We will focus on three:
- The chance that the team that takes a given shot gets the basket;
- The chance that the team that takes a shot gets to take the next shot (either by getting the rebound or by stealing from the other side);
- Whether the game is played with "winner-takes-out" or "loser-takes-out"
Let's say that your team's probability of hitting an inside shot is p2 and the probability of hitting an outside shot is p3 where p2 >: p3. Assume further that these probabilities include the likelihood that a team that is committed to taking a k point shot will take the next shot and will make it a k point shot thus incorporating the aforementioned considerations (1) and (2). Under this assumption, p2 is the probability that the team will get a two point shot before losing possession; similarly, for p3.
Naively, you might think it is better to shoot a three point shot when 3*p3 > 2*p2, but that depends on the take-out rule and on the criterion for winning the game.
In informal games, there are two ways to play:
- "winner-takes-out" the team that has just made the basket takes the ball out again
- "loser-takes-out" the opponents of the team that made the basket take the ball out.
Warm-up 1: Consider a game up to three. Can you think of values p2 (probability of hitting a two point shot) and p3 (probability of hitting a three point shot) in which it would be a better strategy for a team to take a three point shot under "loser-takes-out" but a two point shot under "winner-takes-out"?
Solution to warm-up 1: Here is one scenario. Suppose that p2 = 1 and p3 = 0.8 for both teams. Under "winner-takes-out," if the team with initial possession takes a two point shot, then it will surely hit it, and then retain possession to hit a second two point shot and win. Under "loser-takes-out," if the team with initial possession takes a two point shot, then it will surely hit it, but then the other team can attempt a three point shot and win with a likelihood of 0.8.
When probabilities are lower, there may be several missed shots before anyone scores. How do we analyze that? To make this simple, let's say that both teams take only three point shots, each with probability p3, where these probabilities are independent. Independence means that the chance that a team gets a basket when it has possession does not depend on history. (We can change our software later to take care of winning and losing streaks.)
Let's call the team with initial possession A and the other team B. Team A will get the next basket in the next shot with probability p3. But A can get the next basket also if it missess on its possession and then B misses and then A hits (probability (1-p3)*(1-p3)*p3). In addition, A could miss initially, then B misses, then A misses, then B misses, then A hits (probability (1-p3)*(1-p3)*(1-p3)*(1-p3)*p3). And so on; see Figure 1.
We cut this possibility tree off when the probability falls below a threshold. For example, if the threshold is 0.005, then we won't add in probabilities below that number.
Warm-Up 2: Suppose in a game up to three, the threshold is 0.005, only three point shots are allowed, and p3 for both teams is 0.7. What is the likelihood that team A, the team with initial possession, wins?
Solution: The exact solution is s1 = 0.7 + (0.3)*(0.3)*(0.7) + (0.3)*(0.3)*(0.3)*(0.3)*(0.7) + ... because all these possibilities are mutually exclusive. To compute the exact solution, recall from high school algebra that 0.09 * s1 = (0.3)*(0.3)*(0.7) + (0.3)*(0.3)*(0.3)*(0.3)*(0.7) + ... Therefore, s1 - 0.09 * s1 = 0.7. So 0.91*s1 = 0.7 or s1 = 0.769. The approximate solution using the cutoff is 0.763. The approximate solution is close enough for our purposes and makes the programming easier when we deal with more general cases.

After being hacked last week, Apple took its developer centre website down with plans to overhaul its system to prevent future breaches.
The company said that it was "completely overhauling our developer systems, updating our server software and rebuilding our entire database".
It had also said that personal data such as credit card information and passwords were encrypted, though around 275,000 logins were reportedly put at risk by the hack.
After a week being under maintenance, some components have finally been starting to come back online over the last few days.
Status update
The look and feel of the website so far seems to be mostly the same as before, with Mac, iOS and Safari dev centres back online
Certificates, identifiers and profiles, iTunes connect, bug reports and software downloads services are also available.
Apple has a system status page for updates on what is or what isn't available yet.

text: Overview When animals meet their inescapable ends among the walls or attics of homes or in residential yards, problems arise which may be difficult to handle without the help of professionally trained wildlife removal experts. Commonly found animals include creatures which frequently live near houses such as squirrels, raccoons, stray cats or dogs, mice, rats, opossums, and skunks. Homeowners risk unpleasant odors and stains, disease, contamination, and further pest infestation when dead animal bodies are left unattended in homes or yards. Identification The expired corpse of an animal may be obscured from view by walls, ceilings, or dark crawl spaces. The signs of their passing are noted in time as gasses caused by bodily decomposition fill the area with the smell of rotting flesh. Fluids drain out and leech into nearby materials, causing foul stains which spread and grow as the animal's body continues to rot. These signs may cause concern and unpleasant circumstances for humans and attract other insect or animal pests which feed on carcasses. Locations Homeowners Find Dead Animals Animals like squirrels, raccoons, mice, and rats often make their homes in close proximity to human activity, sometimes within the same yard or even within a house. Whatever areas the animals frequented during their lives are where the remains of their corpses can be found. This includes within attics and walls, beneath floorboards, under porches, hidden within crawl spaces, in yards, or floating in pools. Many of these animals, especially mice and rats, are considered pests by humans, who lay out traps and baits to control infestations. Toxic baits increase the chances of the animals dying and decaying in hidden or unreachable places, and traps which are not checked frequently may allow caught creatures to expire and decompose. Problems & Disease Certain insects and animals such as flies, beetles, worms, crows, and vultures feast off animal carcasses. Fly larvae hatch and grow among corpses, and beetles and worms eat the leftovers. Many such creatures are considered nuisances or pests by humans, and their presence in the home can cause additional problems. Humans who come into close contact with dead animals may contact the diseases or parasites once harbored by the animals. When left unattended, the carcass may contaminate soil or water sources with harmful diseases like cryptosporidium and bayliscaris. Undisposed bodies may also be harmful to pets such as dogs and cats, who can contract parasites and diseases just as easily. Prevention The best way to prevent dead animals in homes or yards is to exclude the creatures from such areas to begin with. They seek entrance through cracks and holes in exterior walls of the home or through unsecured vents, windows, chimneys, or doorways. By sealing up these areas, homeowners can secure their houses against unwanted pests, ensuring that they meet their deaths outside in areas where their bodies won't inconvenience the residents of the household. Removal Dead animals leave a horrendous smell, and the carcass can lead to health hazards, insect infestations, stains and lingering odors. After removing the animal(s), we have special deodorizers, neutralizers and air purifiers to make that nasty smell go away. Upon discovering a dead animal in the home or yard, individuals should refrain from handling the carcass. To prevent the spread of diseases and parasites, residents should contact Critter Control wildlife removal experts, who are trained to safely dispose of dead animals. Removing animal carcasses will also remove the dangers and possible pest infestations which accompany them. We can help you get rid of animal carcass problems.

Studying the studies on the minimum wage
In a full page ad in today's Politico, the conservative Employment Policies Institute (not to be confused with the progressive Economic Policy Institute) claims that "85 percent of the most credible economic research from the last 20 years" demonstrates that the minimum wage "reduces opportunities for the least-skilled jobseekers." In making that claim, the Employment Policies Institute cites research published by economists David Neumark and William Wascher in 2007.
The problem here is that Neumark and Wascher make a decidedly subjective selection of studies to draw their conclusion. We actually have objective evaluations of the full body of recent minimum wage research and these point strongly in the direction of no significant effects on employment.
In their analysis,* Neumark and Wascher reviewed 102 studies of the minimum wage, 33 of which they declared "credible." Of the 102 studies examined, only 53, however, used data for the United States, which would seem to be an important criteria for evaluating the employment impact here. Of these 53 U.S. studies, 19 earned the rating of "credible" from Neumark and Wascher. But, fully five of these 19 — more than one-fourth — were ones that Neumark and Wascher had conducted themselves. This raises real questions about the objectivity of Neumark and Wascher's evaluations.
Neumark and Wascher are long-time opponents of the minimum wage. I have, for a long-time, been a supporter of regular, moderate increases in the minimum wage. So, who are you going to believe? Well, fortunately, we have statistical techniques designed to use objective criteria to sift through and evaluate situations where there are a large number of separate statistical studies on the same topic. These "meta-study" techniques are widely used in medicine, for example, where they help doctors to draw more reliable results from a large number of clinical studies than is possible from any individual study.
In a 2009 paper (behind a paywall) in the peer-reviewed, British Journal of Industrial Relations, Hristos Doucouliagos and T.D. Stanley report the results of their meta-study of 64 studies of the effects of the minimum wage on teenage employment in the United States. The chart below, taken from their paper, presents their key finding. The estimated employment effects, which are displayed along the x-axis, include both negative and positive values. Following standard statistical procedures, however, the researchers have also weighted each estimate by its statistical precision, which is measured on the y-axis. The higher up an estimate lies, the more precise it is.
What is most striking about the chart is that all of the most precise estimates are at or very close to zero — the point where the minimum wage has no effect on teen employment.
Doucouliagos and Stanley's more objective approach leads them to conclude that the minimum wage has "an insignificant employment effect (both practically and statistically)." And these results do not depend on anyone's subjective judgment of the "credibility" of the underlying studies.
[*I refer here to the 2006 National Bureau of Economic Research version of their paper, which is available for download here behind the NBER's paywall or here, for free, at the American Enterprise Institute's website. I don't believe that there are any differences between this analysis and the one published in 2007 in Foundations and Trends in Microeconomics and cited in the Employment Policies Institute ad.]

Eilen Jewell with Special Guests, The Sweetback Sisters
Memorial Hall in Shelburne Falls, MA
Friday, November 12th @ 7:30pm
Continuing our Parents' Night Out promotions, Hilltown Families and Signature Sounds Concerts have partnered up to offer a pair of tickets for one lucky couple to see Eilen Jewell in concert at Memorial Hall in Shelburne Falls on Friday, November 12th at 7:30pm with special guests, The Sweetback Sisters.
Win a pair of tickets and take your spouse, partner or good friend for a night out. Deadline to enter to win: Wednesday, November 10th, 2010 at 7pm (EST). More details below.
Eilen Jewell burst onto the Boston music scene with her 2005 debut, Boundary Country. Reaction to her music was swift, with many comparing her talents to those of Lucinda Williams, Gillian Welch and June Carter Cash. Jewell's hushed style and intimate grasp of roots music have earned her rave reviews, both nationally and abroad. Her album, Sea of Tears was lauded as "album of the year" by critics, was featured on the New and Noteworthy home page on iTunes, and reached #9 on the Americana Radio Chart staying in the top 10 for 2 straight weeks. MOJO gave the album 4 stars and raved; "The comparison game can hardly get any muddier to suggest Lucinda Williams fronting Chris Isaak's band, with both singer and accompanists at the top of their game."
Eilen's lastest release, Butcher Holler, is a tribute to Loretta Lynn. She writes: "Butcher Holler is named for the little Kentucky town where Loretta Lynn was raised. In this tribute to the country star we pay homage to her humble roots and straightforward, hard-hitting performance style. All of the songs in this collection were written by Lynn herself and are a testament not only to her strength as a songwriter but to her personal strength as well. In the 1960s and 70s, Loretta Lynn dared to write songs about topics that were widely considered off-limits, especially for women. The fact that her words still hit a nerve today is proof of their timelessness. And so, a toast: to the woman with more banned songs than anyone can count; to that voice that reaches the very grain of the theater walls around her; to our national treasure. Gratitude is not enough, so I sing these songs for any who will listen."
This young group of stellar Brooklyn-based musicians performs an array of traditional old-time & honky tonk rock music reminiscent of the 1940's & 50's. Complete with hot licks and sweet girl-on-girl harmonies, The Sweetback Sisters are sure to warm the heart of all you modern day cowboys and girls. They sing country songs in close, surrogate-sister harmony and matching dresses. Their repertoire combines several of the Sisters' passions — country music from before they were born and new interpretations of those traditions — to create a fresh take on what it means to be country. Their album Chicken Ain't Chicken is a sincere ode to the classic styles that inspire the Sweetback Sisters, with an ample dose of their own personality and off-kilter sense of humor.
Your chance to win a pair of tickets to see Eilen Jewell in concert at Memorial Hall in Shelburne Falls on Friday, November 12th at 7:30pm with special guests, The Sweetback Sisters, is as easy as 1-2-3 (4)! To win simply:

DWTS – Dancing With The Stars Officially Renewed For New Season
The ABC television network officially announced the early renewal of six TV series as well as "Dancing with the Stars" today. According to the Hollywood Reporter, President Paul Lee expressed his ambition for ABC to become a place that embraces the showrunner culture calling the network a "brand that combines smart with heart".
Along with "Dancing With The Stars", the Emmy Award-winning show "Modern Family" will return for a third season and as well as the top-rated medical drama "Grey's Anatomy". "Cougar Town", "The Middle", "Castle", and "Private Practice" were also renewed. Salma Hayek will executive produce an eight-hour mini-series based on the book "Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" which inspired the Tony Award-winning Broadway play. Lee also hopes to take advantage of parent Disney's new ownership of Marvel Entertainment, developing a remake of "The Hulk". Speaking of "Dancing With The Stars" exclusively, here is what Lee explained to a reporter(who asks dumb questions, lol).
Of course, unscripted has done heavy lifting for ABC so far this season with Wipeout and Dancing with the Stars – featuring the controversial Bristol Palin – far out-rating any of ABC's new programs.
Asked if he was tempted to recruit Palin – who has also appeared on the ABC Family series The Secret Life of the American Teenager – for another ABC property, Lee demurred; "I haven't thought about that."
But he acknowledged that casting is key on Dancing, which is expected to be back in March and has yet to reveal its new season cast.
"We won't have Bristol Palin," he said. "We will have something different."
Watching the show himself, Zap2it also reports Lee said this…
Lee is a fan of "Glee" and "The Good Wife" and thinks they could work on ABC. He also loves "Dancing With the Stars." Watching the show in person, he says, is like "going to the circus."
So, that is it for now. Still no official date as for when Season 12 will premiere. But, March 21st is a very strong possibility according to rumors going around currently.

"Jersey Shore's" Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi was involved in a car crash that sent two Italian police officers to the hospital with scrapes and bruises.
The pint-sized reality star was driving in Florence Monday with co-star Deena Nicole Cortese sitting shotgun and her production crew in back when their Fiat hit a police escort. The collision was described as a "low speed impact." Alcohol was reportedly not a factor in the crash.
Snooki and Deena refused medical treatment and were taken a police station to fill out an accident report, Italian police told People.
U.S. & World
Snooki has been in Italy filming season four of "Jersey Shore." She has had past run-ins with the law while shooting the MTV hit.
Last July, Snooki was arrested and briefly jailed for disorderly conduct in Seaside Heights, New Jersey.
She pleaded guilty to the incident, was fined $500 and later performed two days of community service.

Don't let the holiday blues get you this season. While the family get-togethers, gift exchanges and parties are part of the joys of the holidays, for some people those things can be stressful and, in some cases, depressing. We talked to Dr. Fatima Ali, a psychiatrist with Linden Oaks at Edward Hospital and DuPage Mental Health Services, about holiday stress and ways to deal with it. Here is an edited transcript of our interview.
Q: What are some of the most common causes of depression around the holidays?
A: Family-related issues such as fights within the family or loss of a loved one. Around the holidays that is really heightened because it's a time of reunions and family get-togethers, and it's a strong reminder of that.
Certainly, economic conditions have been pretty difficult for a lot of people, and those things tend to be more heightened at the holidays because people may not be able to get as many gifts.
Q: What are some of the signs that it's holiday depression and not clinical depression?
A: If you're able to function, go to work and meet friends (and still) feel a little bummed … (but) after a week or so (when the holidays pass) you feel pretty good … that's situational stuff. But if it still hangs over you over the holidays, and you're still getting irritable and trying to isolate yourself and have difficulty concentrating, then that means it's become much more of a serious problem, and you need to get some help.
Q: For some people, stressful family get-togethers are part of the holiday routine. What are some tips for dealing with those situations?
A: (Couples) can sit down and discuss it, whether it be their own family or in-laws. They can discuss how they can be together. If the family can make a combined decision on how they can deal with the conflict situation and how much time they'll spend where, and respect each decision and stick to it, they can avoid a lot of conflicts.
Q: For those who have lost loved ones, the holidays can be a sad time. What are some things people can do to remember their loved ones in a way that brings some joy to the season?
A: Look for things that would be a remembrance of joyful times you spent with the loved one. Rather than focusing on the loss, focus on the joyous moments together and the holidays together. … Those can be a reminder for the positive.
Q: What are some tips for dealing with the holiday blues?
A: If it's more situational and you're still able to function, then (some suggestions would include) not to be alone as much. Try to keep yourself distracted. Go to some support groups or reach out to friends that you may not have been connecting with. That distraction is a good way to get your thoughts away from focusing on the losses or what you don't have.
If you have a hobby, maybe take some classes for it. Nurture yourself, whether it's hobbies, friendship or anything that brings an excitement or joy and gives you a positive energy boost.
Light exercising, yoga or meditation can help. Challenge your negative thoughts about yourself and look at how to reframe them into some positive thoughts or outlook.
Q: Any advice for avoiding some of the stressors at the holiday season?
A: Do a little bit of planning. What are the social activities going on, work activities or financial commitments for gifts? Start a little earlier in terms of planning what you're going to do for the holidays if visiting family.
Don't forget yourself. When you're stressed, the first thing that happens is you forget yourself. Take at least 5-10 minutes in the day where you are just going to stay put and calm your mind.
Q: What role does sleep play in the holidays and stress or depression?
A: Sleep has a great role in it. On average, people should get at least eight hours of sleep. If you're chronically sleep deprived, the ability to handle stress goes down. If you're tired, you're not going to be able to sort things out and plan things.

With the recent approvals of several oral drugs to reduce disease flares in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, the top researchers agree that the next major frontier is the disease's progressive forms.
But, on the basis of presentations and discussions at last week's annual meeting of the European Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ECTRIMS), progressive MS now stands at about the same place that relapsing-remitting MS stood 3 decades ago -- that is, still many years away from an effective therapy or even a solid understanding of its pathophysiology.
At an ECTRIMS session devoted to progressive MS, opening speaker Robert Fox, MD, of the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio, said an international collaboration has been formed to take on the condition's challenges. Initial meetings have produced a list of five major research needs.
That list highlights how far the field needs to advance before it can even test a potential therapy properly. Currently lacking, but necessary for development of treatments, are the following:
- An experimental model for preclinical research
- High-throughput screening tools for drug discovery
- Appropriate outcome measures for phase II trials
- Appropriate outcome measures for phase III trials
- Outcomes to target for symptomatic treatments
Fox was followed to the platform by Finn Sellebjerg, MD, of the University of Copenhagen (the meeting's host city), who delved into the heterogeneity of progressive MS. This goes beyond the familiar distinction between primary and secondary progressive forms, to include what is sometimes called progressive-relapsing MS, in which periodic disease flares are superimposed on a background of steadily worsening symptom severity and disability.
Sellebjerg also argued that progressive MS may, in some cases, be a misnomer -- in many patients, their disease course may better be characterized as "incomplete remission after relapse" rather than true progression.
Other speakers in the session discussed different aspects of progressive versus relapsing-remitting forms, such as measures of axonal damage, cerebrospinal fluid protein levels, and variant genes for NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) neurotransmitter receptors.
But none of these appeared to be foolproof approaches to distinguishing the different forms of MS clinically, let alone offering therapeutic targets for drug development.
On the other hand, Fox and Sellebjerg noted that a host of drugs are now or soon will be in clinical trials for progressive MS, because preclinical tests or findings in other neurodegenerative diseases suggested a potential for benefit.
These include simvastatin (Zocor), natalizumab (Tysabri), and alemtuzumab (Lemtrada), as well as a combination of ibudilast, amiloride, and riluzole. This last drug failed in a monotherapy trial in relapsing MS reported at the meeting. On the other hand, drugs for relapsing MS have mostly failed to show benefit in progressive forms, and it would not be surprising if the reverse were true, since the conditions are believed to be fundamentally different.
Sellebjerg said results from a pilot study of natalizumab, in which he had been an investigator, would be reported soon. The topline finding was that the drug showed positive effects in some measures, but brain atrophy continued. Also, although the drug appeared to improve disability scores, Sellebjerg called the magnitude "clinically questionable."

I just don't understand how CD Projekt Red can be such masters at world building and quest design, but are completely inept at everything that involves Geralt drawing a sword or throwing igni. I almost gave up on Hearts of Stone because the beginning of its main quest just put me into a controller-throwing rage.
Geralt is tasked with killing a mysterious sewer monster who has been killing women who go into the sewer hoping to find a toad who can be turned into a prince with a kiss. One of The Witcher III's long-standing annoyances for me is that it makes such a big deal about Geralt being so analytical that he prepares for every monster hunt with potions and so forth, but whenever a quest boss comes along, the game decides to just throw the player in with no chance to prepare. This quest provided no opportunity to investigate to learn what the toad monster is or what its weaknesses might be. When you hit an arbitrary point in the sewer, the game triggers a cutscene that just throws Geralt into the boss arena, so you can't re-equip yourself, respec, or otherwise prepare.
To make matters worse, the game checkpoints you inside the boss fight, instead of prior to the cutscene. If you die, you have to wait for the game's god-damned-bloody long-ass load times before having to go through the trouble of resetting your equipped potions or any other preparatory activities, only to survive for thirty seconds before the fracking toad kills you again and you have to sit through another two minutes of load screen before having to start it all over again. Just unacceptable, CD Projekt Red; absolutely unacceptable.
In order to beat the damn thing, I had to reload from an autosave earlier in the quest (fortunately, I didn't lose much progress) and use the Potion of Clearance to respec Geralt to take points out of my [currently useless] support skills and put them into abilities that buffed my attack, defense, and the two spells that are actually useful for this fight.
To add insult to injury, this boss fight ends with a cutscene, and the next playable, non-dialogue sequence is another boss fight, this time a mage with an entourage of soldiers. Without any of my support or crowd-control spells, I ended up having to replay this fight several times as well (it didn't help that the mage seemed to have a one-hit kill area-of-effect tornado attack). At the end, I thought I would be able to respec my character back to the way I had him, but apparently that potion is only a one-time use. I had to fast travel around to several merchants to try to find someone who would sell another copy to me (because Kiera disappears after you finish the main story, so I couldn't buy it from her). It cost 1,000 gold! Then, after finding my way back to the original quest-giver, I got stuck in yet another obnoxious boss fight.
All three of these boss fights seemed to break the game's established rules. The first one kept hitting me with poison, so I tried using a potion that was supposed to allow me to heal from exposure to poison. Except the potion didn't work. Neither of the other two bosses were vulnerable to Yrden or to dimeritium bombs to block or negate their magic abilities. This all was incredibly frustrating, as one of my biggest pet peeves with video games is when the developers give bosses immunity to all the fancy support items and spells that the player has, which you've been saving up for just such an occasion - a boss being the one place where such tools are actually useful or necessary. On top of that, all three fights are needlessly long endurance matches that quickly devolve to repeating the same few actions a hundred times in a row. Absolutely, unforgivably terrible boss fights, the whole lot of them! Needless to say, this DLC did not get off on the right foot with me - much like the base game didn't.
But I grit my teeth and played through the base game, only to find some of the most outstanding quest design and characters that gaming has to offer. So I would do the same with the Hearts of Stone DLC. And once again, I was rewarded for my patience with a quality storyline....

Classic Arnold-Chiari malformations are inheritied deformities in the nervous system that develop from ectodermal tissues in the embryo. Ectodermal tissues turn into nerves and skin. Chiari 1 malformations, on the other hand, appear to be due to design flaws in the posterior fossa of the skull, such as one that is too small. Smaller posterior fossas may explain why females have a higher incidence of Chiari malformations. In contrast to classic Chiari malformations, the skull develops from mesodermal tissues, which also develop into muscles and connective tissues. What's more, the latest research shows that adults can acquire Chiari 1 malformation due to degeneration and trauma of the spine. The cause in many cases may be due the tethering of the brain and cord.
Humans are susceptible to Chiari malformations due to the unique design of the skull, spine and circulatory system of the brain as a result of upright posture. Among other things, Chiari malformations may play a far greater role than we currently realize in the cause of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and multiple sclerosis, as well as others.

Jeff Wall
Influential photographer Jeff Wall makes large-scale color images that seem to capture people engaged in everyday life, but are in fact largely staged. Interested in the filmmaking of the postwar era, particularly the unconventional narrative structures of Neo-Realism, his best known work involves constructing elaborate mis-en-scènes, which he photographs and then displays in wall-mounted lightboxes. "I wanted to exaggerate the artificial aspect of my work as a way to create a distance from the dominant context of reportage, the legacy of Robert Frank and the others," Wall explains. "I saw something else in photography, something to do with scale, with color and with construction, which might be valid along with the more established values that had come down from the 19th century and had been extended by the great photographers of the 20th century." Wall's practice is varied, and for many years has also incorporated smaller, documentary photographs and, since 1997, black-and-white pictures.

School Groups
It was a record year for Hall of Fame school group visits.
The 2011-2012 school year saw record numbers of school groups and education programs delivered at the Reds Hall of Fame and Museum. Nearly 9000 students from over 100 unique schools visited the Reds Hall of Fame to participate in one of the education program offerings, tour the museum, and tour Great American Ball Park. Over 4600 students visited during the month of May alone, which was an all-time record museum attendance total for schools in a single month.
Most school groups chose to participate in at least one of the museum's six education programs, presented by Duke Energy. These interactive programs allow students, grade K-12, to discover the links between baseball and subjects such as mathematics, science, and social studies. The most popular program continued to be "Build A Baseball Team," in which students work in small groups to select a nine player team while considering both the group's overall payroll budget and a player's statistical worth. Other programs saw students using the scientific method in conducting baseball related experiments, recreating a modern day Reds game using 1940 radio technology, and becoming part of a baseball orchestra while singing Take Me Out To The Ballgame. All education programs are correlated to academic content standards, with adjustments being made for the new Common Core State Standards.
Many groups also received guided tours of both the museum and Great American Ball Park. These tours offered in-depth explanations behind the players and themes of each museum exhibit, as well as a "behind the scenes" look into the Press Box and dugout within Great American Ball Park. School groups are permitted to bring their own lunches to the museum, and students eat in the Great American Ball Park Fan Zone during their scheduled lunch time. All of these activities make for a full day that affords students and teachers an educational, engaging, and enjoyable field trip.
Unfortunately, more and more school districts are facing budgetary restrictions that reduce or eliminate the opportunity to take field trips. With this in mind, the 2011-2012 school year marked the inaugural year for the Reds Hall of Fame's Outreach program. This initiative brings the museum's six education programs directly to individual classrooms in the greater Cincinnati region. Each student who participates in an Outreach program also receives a free ticket for a future visit the museum. In its first year, over 1000 students participated in these Outreach programs, and the number of participants will most likely continue to grow.
Both on-site and Outreach programs are scheduled "on demand" at mutually convenient dates and times, and please contact the Education Manager at 513.765.7922 to reserve your spot for the 2012-2013 school year. Thank you to all of the teachers, students, parents, and school administrators who helped to make this past school year the most successful in Reds Hall of Fame history, and we look forward to having you with us again in the year ahead!

EPA, State and County Promote Household Hazardous Waste Pickup in Nassau County
Release Date: 11/19/2012
Contact Information: Elias Rodriguez, 732-672-5520, firstname.lastname@example.com or John Martin, 646-256-6710, email@example.com
- (New York, N.Y.) The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Nassau County are continuing to collect and properly dispose of potentially hazardous common household products from flood-damaged homes in Nassau County. The public in Nassau County is encouraged to put waste products on their curb for pickup, including: solvents, paints, cleaners, oil, propane tanks, batteries, petroleum products, weed/bug killers, car batteries, bleach and ammonia. The EPA and its contractors will continue to drive the streets of impacted areas to conduct curbside pickup of household hazardous waste through the month of November. The EPA may have already completed the work in certain neighborhoods. If it appears that this is the case in a particular community, people should contact their local Sanitation Department to determine when they can bring their household hazardous waste to a drop off location. People can also bring their household hazardous waste from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to Merrick Transfer Station, 1600 Merrick Road, Merrick, NY, Nickerson Beach Park (parking lot), 880 Lido Boulevard, Lido Beach, NY and 101 Bethpage Sweet Hollow Road, Old Bethpage, NY.
"Household hazardous waste, such as petroleum products, old paint and pesticides can be dangerous and should be disposed of properly to protect people's health and the environment," said EPA Regional Administrator Judith A. Enck. "The EPA is urging people to separate potentially hazardous products from their regular trash and place them on the curb in areas with curbside pickup, or bring the items to designated drop off sites in Nassau County."
Oil-contaminated debris or material contaminated by other petroleum or chemical products should be separated and stored in a well-ventilated area. If stored outdoors, the piles should be covered to keep rain from contaminating nearby soil and water. Any chemical or oil spills, such as from home heating oil tanks, must be reported to DEC at 1-800-457-7362.
It is also important to clean and disinfect everything touched by flood waters as quickly as possible, since they may contain bacteria or toxic chemicals from sources as varied as pesticides, heating oil and sewage.
Porous items need to be dried right away to prevent mold. If possible, household furnishings should be cleaned or disinfected. If they cannot be cleaned, they should be discarded. Hard, non-porous surfaces should also be cleaned. For detailed advice, see the State Department of Health's website http://www.health.ny.gov/environmental/emergency/weather/hurricane/ and https://www.epa.gov/sandy/factsheets.html .
The EPA and DEC have also worked with communities to establish temporary storage areas for storm-generated debris. New Yorkers can find more information by calling the EPA at 888-283-7626 or the DEC regional office on Long Island at 516-444-0375 during normal business hours to obtain specific disposal information.

Helping teens prepare for surgery
What happens after surgery
After surgery, the anesthesia team will help you to gradually wake from anesthesia. You will be moved on a bed with wheels to the, Post Anesthesia Care Unit. We call it the PACU or the recovery room. A nurse will be taking care of you and check your vital signs frequently. You will feel groggy, and sometimes a little dizzy. Tell your nurse if you feel uncomfortable. Your nurse can give you medicine to help you feel better.
You will probably sleep most of the time while you are in the PACU. You will not feel like eating or drinking right away. You may have an IV and get fluids and medicines through it. Your family can join you when you are ready to leave this area.
You will then be brought to a post-op room. The post-op nurse will check your temperature, pulse, breathing, and blood pressure and will check your comfort level using the pain scale. Common feelings after anesthesia may include sleepiness, upset stomach, dizziness, headache, sore throat, irritability, and muscle aches. Many people just feel a bit tired, but otherwise well. If you feel ready to drink you may have some ice chips, Popsicles, or clear liquids.
You may feel like watching a movie or TV or you may just want to sleep. If you are spending the night or several nights, one parent can stay in your room with you.
When you are ready to go home your doctor or nurse will give you instructions about eating and drinking, activity, and medicines to help with healing, and how to take care of yourself.

Miguel Ángel Ruiz
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Miguel Ángel Ruiz (born August 27, 1952), more famous as Don Miguel Ruiz, is a Mexican shaman, teacher, and author, most famous for his work The Four Agreements.
- I change my story by changing what I believe about myself. When I clean up the lies I believe about myself, the lies I believe about other people change. Every time I change myself, my whole story changes to adapt to the new main character.
The Four Agreements (1997)[edit]
- Be Impeccable with Your Word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.
- Don't Take Anything Personally. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.
- Don't Make Assumptions. Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
- Always Do Your Best. Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
The Fifth Agreement (2010)[edit]
- The Fifth Agreement : A Practical Guide to Self-Mastery
- Be Skeptical, but Learn to Listen.
- Respect is one of the greatest expressions of love. If other people try to write your story, it means they don't respect you. They consider that you're not a good artist who can write your own story, even though you were born to write your own story.

While it is always lovely to have home cooked meals, the idea of having to do loads of washing up after each meal can be a daunting prospect. But what if you could cook everything in just one cooking pot – which makes for virtually no clean up?
With some creative thinking, it is possible – and we've curated a list of simple one-pot meals to inspire you. These recipes are simple enough for when you're pressed for time and special enough for guests, but all are balanced and can be made efficiently and easily, even for the inexperienced cook.
Smoked Salmon and Mushroom Risotto
This Smoked Salmon and Mushroom Risotto is a satisfying one-pot that makes a great weekend brunch. It requires minimal preparation and a cooking time of just 20 minutes! Here's a prop tip to getting your rice all fluffy and al dente; stir the rice often so it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan, but give your arms a break once in a while. Over-stirring will add air into the risotto, cooling it down and making it too starchy. Also use a pot that fits perfectly over your burner so your pot, and rice, will heat up evenly.
Chicken, Carrots and Spinach Porridge Puree
When you're feeling under the weather, this Chicken, Carrots and Spinach Porridge Puree is the perfect remedy. This recipe is as simple as its name suggests. What it lacks in fancy names, it makes up for in amazing flavour. This simply-seasoned recipe is smooth, savoury and contains both protein and vegetables - making it a sure hit with the family for its familiar and comforting taste! And in case you prefer to have less of that creamy puree texture, you can simply choose to leave out that last step with the hand blender!
Mixed Seafood Aglio Olio with White Wine Sauce
A delicious one-pot of Mixed Seafood Aglio Olio with White Wine Sauce is one stress-free way to fill up a hungry crowd with just one dish. Tossing fresh seafood and pasta into a single pan is what we call a fuss-free affair. If you foresee that you won't have spare time to prep the seafood, then go for frozen ones as a convenient alternative. No matter which you use, we guarantee this dish will be a popular one. This recipe can be doubled or tripled easily if you're eating with friends or family.
Minestrone Soup
While the Minestrone Soup is usually eaten as a light appetizer, this upgraded recipe includes cut-up spaghetti so it's filling enough to be eaten as an entree instead. With eight kinds of vegetables plus pasta, beans and bacon all simmering in one pot - it's certainly one delicious and nutritious meal that's truly hard to beat. This soup is hearty, packed with all the vitamins you need, and is so simple to make in under 30 minutes.
If you need more encouragement to try out one-pot meals, just think of all the time you'll be able to save both on the washing and also the meal preparation. This is especially useful when you have small or active children who are always fighting for your attention, or when you've always put off cooking because you're too tired from work!
The best part is all you really need is a good, heavy, oven safe pan. So with these four yummy recipes in your arsenal, we're sure you're more than ready to take on the one-pot challenge - not that it's much of a challenge at all, because it's so easy you'll soon be hooked on the trend!

Dating on a Dime
How long has it been since you and your "other half" were on a date? If you are like me you are sitting there trying to remember. Has it been that long? Seems like everyone is cutting back their spending and trying to save more. But it is so important that we continue some things like spending quality time with our significant other. Not only do we deserve it, we NEED it!
While trying to cut back and still getting out and adding sparks to your relationship you have to think outside the box. Here is an idea for you:
Make it a "Date Day" instead of night. When you do this you can eat off of your favorite restaurant's lunch menu instead of dinner menu. This will save you several dollars. Many restaurants have lunch menus on the weekend. I suggest you call around first to confirm which offer a weekend lunch menu.
To help with that lunch even more check out my post on how to save money on going out to eat.
While on your "Date Day" you can see a matinee. Save even more if you see the movies before noon! You can save a lot by going to an early movie. And as an added bonus most theaters are not as crowed during the day.
We have done this several times. I will also mention that it is easier to find someone to watch the kids on a Saturday morning then it is Saturday night. So you can drop them off at grandmas's or a friend's house for a few hours. Then go enjoy each other on your "date day" and spend alot less than you would on a "date night."
There are a lot of great local deal sites where you can find something new and exciting to do without breaking the bank.
- This week Groupon had some awesome date ideas for over 50% off. Check out today's deal at Groupon.
- Visit Restaurants. com and get $25 Dining Certificate for up to 80% off! Click Here
- Living Social – Get $5 Credit for Signing Up! Lots of great deals!

Thank you so much Living on Love and Cents and Madame Deals for this money saving Article 🙂

The island of Ireland is made up of four provinces and 32 counties, and they all have their own unique charms and traditions
Connacht is largely made up of counties on Ireland's western coast. Roscommon is the only landlocked county in the province. Connacht is home to stunning scenery, including Connemara, Achill Island, and Sligo's world-renowned surfing coast. Many parts of the province retain their very strong Gaelic traditions, in particular the Aran Islands. The Irish language is spoken throughout Connacht's Gaeltacht (Irish speaking) areas.
The five counties of Connacht are Galway, Leitrim, Mayo, Roscommon and Sligo.
This eastern province is home to the Republic of Ireland's capital city Dublin, originally founded by the Vikings. Today, rarely a week goes by without some form of festival happening in the city.
Leinster is now the most populated province on the island, with over half the population of the Republic of Ireland living there. The area was heavily colonized over the centuries and, as a result, it's home to many fine examples of medieval, Norman, Georgian and Neolithic architecture.
Carlow, Dublin, Kildare, Kilkenny, Laois, Longford, Louth, Meath, Offaly, Westmeath, Wexford and Wicklow are the counties that make up the Leinster region.
Two of Ireland's largest counties are found in Munster: Cork and Kerry. Both have their own names they like to go by.
In Cork they consider themselves the "People's Republic of Cork", because if there is one thing people from Cork love, it's Cork. It's also affectionately known as the gourmet county, because of its excellent culinary expertise.
"The Kingdom of Kerry" is renowned for its spectacular golf courses and it has won the GAA All-Ireland Senior Football Championships more times than any other team. Plus it has lush green scenery and a stunning coastline that is coveted by visitors while the town of Dingle boasts its own resident dolphin called Fungi (so popular he even has his own Twitter account.)
The lunar Burren and Cliffs of Moher are in County Clare and several ancient castles populate the counties of Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford. Waterford is renowned for its exquisite hand-cut crystal glass.
Munster's counties are Clare, Cork, Kerry, Limerick, Tipperary and Waterford.
The combined influences of several different cultures – the Ulster Scots, the Gaels, the Normans and the Anglo-Normans – have sculpted and colored the Ulster landscape in a particularly unique manner.
Natural beauties such as Donegal's Glenveagh National Park, the Mourne Mountains in County Down, Fermanagh's Lakelands and the Giant's Causeway in Antrim (seen in all its glory here in Ben Joyner's competition winning video) make this part of the island a spectacular place to visit.
Meanwhile, the capital of Northern Ireland, Belfast city, played its part in making maritime history as the birthplace of the world's most famous ship: the Titanic.
The province contains counties Antrim, Armagh, Cavan, Donegal, Down, Fermanagh, Londonderry, Monaghan and Tyrone.

Consumer Alert
Beware of Payday Loan Telephone Collection Scams
The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) issued an alert warning about payday loan telephone collection scams. Scammers are contacting people across the country claiming that they are collecting past due balances on payday loans. The callers use business names that sound legitimate, sometimes using the names of actual payday loan companies. They frequently have accurate personal information about the people they are calling. The complaints received by the IC3 allege harassment and abusive conduct. Many of the victims of the scams are people who previously applied for a payday loan online.
The Consumer Protection Unit of the Alaska Attorney General's office has received similar complaints from Alaska residents.
If you receive this type of telephone call, do not make a payment or give the caller any additional information. Instead, file a complaint with the IC3.
If a caller has your personal information, you may want to take steps to help you detect and defend against identity theft. The Federal Trade Commission website has a complete online guide to identifying and dealing with identity theft.

The Enlarged Republic—Then and Now
To many modern readers, the Federalist Papers seem formal, musty, old, and a bit tired—a little like a national holiday that celebrates events long past but lacks any sense of struggle and excitement, or even a clear message. But under stringent time pressure, starting in October 1787, Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay, writing under the name of "Publius," produced the best historical record, by far, of the uniquely American contribution to political thought and practice.
It is important to see that their arguments were a product of a concrete historical drama, involving the fate of an emerging nation that was having an exceedingly difficult time governing itself. But Publius's claims bear not only on American debates of the eighteenth century, but also on those of the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first. They offer lessons for making war and making peace, and for domestic crises of many different kinds. Indeed, they provide guidance for constitutional democracies elsewhere, not least when peace and prosperity are endangered.
Publius's project was to reconceive republicanism—a body of thought with ancient origins in Aristotle and Cicero whose modern forms had been elaborated in different ways by Machiavelli, Rousseau, and Montesquieu. Emphasizing self-rule by the people, republicans insisted on the importance of civic virtue and generally believed that self-government works best in small, homogeneous republics. According to the argument of the Federalist Papers, however, such small republics tend to destroy themselves. The reason lay in the power of factions—well-organized private groups with passions or interests inconsistent with the good of the public as a whole.1 Publius believed that in a large republic, a heterogeneous public could counteract factional power and serve as a creative force, promoting circumspection and introducing safeguards against bias, error, confusion, and even oppression.
In Publius's boldest words, the unprecedented constitutional design of the United States, offering checks and balances in a large republic, provides
a republican remedy for the diseases most incident to republican government. And according to the degree of pleasure and pride we feel in being republicans, ought to be our zeal in cherishing the spirit, and supporting the character of federalists.
In unifying the cause of republicanism with that of the federalists, who supported the ratification of the Constitution, Publius argues on behalf of a distinctive kind of democracy—a deliberative one. He insists that in a well-functioning deliberative democracy, a wide range of perspectives is a virtue rather than a vice, at least if the constitution has the proper structure. Publius thus explicitly repudiates most of the great republican thinkers, above all Montesquieu, who contended that in a large, diverse republic, self-governance would be impossible. Publius's novel conception of republicanism provides a clue to the longevity and genius of the United States Constitution. It also helps to explain why it has served, for so many, as a model of self-government under law.
To appreciate Publius's achievement, it…
