In Doctor Who Magazine's The Mighty 200 poll in 2009, Revelation of the Daleks was voted as the 46th most liked story, one place higher than The Time Warrior and two places lower than The Dalek Invasion of Earth. In the 2014 poll it was voted 70th.
In case there are readers for whom this is the first article of this series they read, here is a reminder about what this series is about: in this series, I will try and evaluate exactly how good the episodes I have not seen before, or have seen only a couple of times, are from the viewpoint of someone watching the episodes for the first time. I will try and make note what are the episode's strengths and weaknesses.
Revelation of the Daleks is the season finale of Season 22. After this story the show was put on an 18-month hiatus. The following season would be the swansong of Colin Baker as the Doctor, although this wasn't known at the time.
The Characters
At the time of the broadcast of this story, Colin Baker had been appearing in the role of the Doctor for a little over a season, having made his first (albeit brief) appearance in the previous season's penultimate story The Caves of Androzani; after which he appeared in that season's final story.
Perpugilliam "Peri" Brown accompanies Baker's Sixth Doctor. She is an American College student portrayed by Nicola Bryant, and was also a companion to the Fifth Doctor from Planet of Fire until the Doctor's regeneration in The Caves of Androzani.
The Doctor
The Doctor is a double-edged sword, so to speak. At times he can be quite strict or even mean, but at other times he can crack a joke. An example of the latter is in part one of the story, when the Doctor jokes to Peri that "America doesn't have a monopoly on bad taste", referring to the name of the place they are going to visit, Tranquil Repose.
Colin Baker's Doctor isn't, to me, as bad as his reputation among the fans seems to suggest. Sure, he brandishes a gun in Revelation of the Daleks' final moments, but he is also kind and caring. The differences shown in the story of this incarnation's differences from his previous incarnation may be down to his rather delirious regeneration.
The Companion
Peri in Revelation of the Daleks is rather different from what she was in The Caves of Androzani. Whereas in the earlier story Peri was a screamer and a standard "damsel in distress" type, in Revelation of the Daleks she shows a whole different side to herself. Peri in this story is compassionate and kind, which is evident in the scenes where she clearly is worried about the Doctor and whether he survives. Her backstory of being an American student of botany is referenced a couple of times, but takes no major part in the story.
The Monsters and Villains
The villain of the story is Davros, creator of the Daleks, and the monsters of the story are therefore the Daleks.
Based on part one alone, Davros doesn't seem to be doing anything else other than plotting in the shadows and begging for more money to conduct his experiments. He seems to be a shadow of his Genesis self, which in part is attributable to him being only a head on a life-supporting machine. However, it is revealed that his experimentations are done to expand the Dalek power by creating Daleks out of other, non-Kaled, beings.
However, being Davros, this turns out to be a ruse in part two. In this part the full horrors of Davros' experimentations come to light, as it is discovered that he has used the bodies of the people at Tranquil Repose to not only create new Daleks, but also to create a source of food that could be sold to provide funds for his experimentations. He also can be seen as having gained a sense of humor. This is especially clear in a scene where he is asked if people knew what they had been eating and he replies with a line along the lines of "of course not, that would cause what I believe to be known as… consumer resistance."
The Daleks in this story seem, at least at first, to be only as servants to Davros. However, this too turns out to be a ruse as one faction turns against Davros and appear to start a Dalek Civil War.
The Overall Story
Season 22 is, I've come to understand, not very liked among the fandom. But if you look at it from a non-linear, non-subjective point of view, it's more like a big ball of moderny-woderny story-wory type of season. The stories are 45 minutes in length, as opposed to the standard 25 minutes of other seasons, the stories were two or three parts in length and the season was 13 episodes long. All of these aspects are familiar to viewers familiar with the post-2005 Doctor Who, which in my opinion makes this season easy to introduce to a first-time viewer.
Apart from the production similarities in the story, there are multiple other points in the story that also make this story easy to introduce to a first-time viewer. The first of these is the character of Mr. Jobel. He is played by Clive Swift, who to New Who viewers is more familiar as Mr. Copper the historian from Voyage of the Damned. The second is the fact that in this story Davros loses his other hand, and as can be seen in the Series four two-part finale, Davros has procured a metal artificial hand instead. Graeme Harper, who has also directed many post-2005 episodes of the show, directs the story. It features Trevor Cooper, who was announced a while back to be appearing in Mark Gatiss' episode in Series 8.
As for the story itself, it is a slow starter. Practically all of the main action happens in part two. This, however, isn't necessarily all that bad, as it does give some room for character moments, especially between Peri and the Doctor. However, if a slow starter isn't your thing, this story might be a hard view for you.
There are some, shall we say, weird things in Revelation of the Daleks. The biggest one, for me, is the part of the DJ on Tranquil Repose. Although his role in the facility is somewhat explained in the story, the acting from the person cast in the role seemed rather weird to me. When he first appeared, my reaction was something along the lines of "what the…"
The scene at the end of part one, in which the Doctor contemplates his own death and arriving at a place at a point in time after his own demise, strongly resembles similar musings made by the Doctor in The Name of the Doctor.
The story has clearly taken some ideas from the works of Shakespeare, as is evident by the high amount of people dead at the end and also from some of the character names, such as Oberon and Orcini, although to be fair the first of these isn't really a character but the name of a Order that is mentioned in the story.
All in all, Revelation of the Daleks has some sets that are quite close to the show's post-2005 sets in quality. The acting, especially from the main two, is quite good – except for some minor bits in some scenes, when the acting seems more like over-acting. The story starts slowly, but reaches a satisfying conclusion. The monsters and villains may seem to be bland, but by the end of the story they have really delivered.

I think Capaldi's intro should be a darker blue version of series 7 part b theme.
I remember going to walk on cold autumn morning at a new site and thinking 'this place looks familiar'. It wasn't until I watched Revelation of the Daleks for the umpteenth time that I realised why. I was working at Tranquil Repose. IBM, North Harbour in Portsmouth was the site used for the external shots (where the Imperial Dalek glides past Peri as she's walking down a ramp, etc.)
I really enjoyed this episode. It had a macabre sense of humour to it. The Great Healer is was a great monicre for Davros who is curing world hunger. I also like Clive Swift's womaniser Jobel. Alexei Sayle was superbly over-the-top and cras as the DJ (at the time he'd already done 2 seasons of The Young Ones).
Interesting article. (It's viewpoint, not point of view by the way.)
ummmmmmm i hate the sixth doctor but i will watch this only because of the daleks
Another great review. I agree that Revelation starts off a bit slow and episode 1 was unspectacular as a result. But it didn't matter because episode 2 was just MASTERFUL. Perfection. 8/10. As for Season 22, it was a bit unspectacular but it also had some good stories like Revelation and Vengeance On Varos (Colin's best story, even if the first part was a bit slow) and The Two Doctors was........OK, I guess. Mark Of The Rani was also not THAT bad. However, we also had some TERRIBLE stories like The Twin Dilemma and Timelash (Which is the worst story of all time in my opinion)
Revelation is one of my favorite stories and Dalek stories. Elenor Bron was superb as Kara. I remember watching it when it was first broadcast and the shock I got when the Skaro Daleks turned up. The 6th Doctor and Davros were a good match for each other, a shame those tow never got more scenes together on TV, at least Big Finish has made up for this.
As for season 22, I enjoyed it, though the thing that annoyed me was the Doctor and Peri bickering all the time.
Love Revelation of the Daleks! Quite creepy....and I really like Colin Baker, too :)
Actually, I like Revelation.
it's one of those stories that of pure bizarreness finish being beautiful. The story has his ineresting point, the face off between Daleks who are loyals to Davros and Daleks who aren't is a concept that I'd like to see on the new series.
I like the DJ, he's a funny guy (Am I the only one who's noticed that he greets Peri with the same song that Jack dances with Rose in The Empty Child?)
The Doctor and Peri have a great connection in this serial, the first scene on the lake is so funny.
I give him an 7.50-8/10
And Antti, I love that you're going in order. Looking forward Battlefield, I watch it couple days ago.
Thing with this - as with most of Colin Baker's (and in my opinion, Davison's) era, is that it's filled with brilliant ideas. There's the standard Doctor Who tropes with added zest. Here, Daleks have been split into factions and behind a very mysterious facility - a massive change from the repetitive The Daleks/Planet of the Daleks/Death to the Daleks format which was a dull use of the machines. The problem is that a great scene/sequence will be followed by a poor one.
For example, the Doctor's death monument is a great idea, but doesn't really service the plot (and looks flimsy when it tries to crush him). The DJ is a great idea, but the execution is really poor. Dalek's don't believe Davros when he points out the Doctor just because he looks different? Come on.
But for me, Season 22 was an experimental success. Though 23 had some highlights, 22 was better overall, and certainly better than 24. If the strangling thing had never happened and Michael Grade wasn't a plonker, Colin Baker may well have had his desired 7 years in the role, because he's superb, especially here. It's just a shame that around him, a lot of the acting is inconsistent. That being said, this is a very dark serial that covers plenty of serious material, which might have left a few of the actors out of depth.
Still, a highlight of the Colin Baker era, no doubt. You can't watch this without getting goosebumps as "The Great Healer" gets teased in Part One.
Ah, Revelation of the Daleks, my personal favourite story for my absolute favourite Doctor.
This story has really dark under tones, and I absolutely love that kind of stuff. Humans getting turned into a new breed of Daleks is a new form of twisted evil from Davros. Davros, of course, is at his best here in the entire show. Also my favourite villan, Davros interacts best with this specific incarnation, which is made even better with the Big Finish audio Davros. 2 men of science with equal intelect, but with different moral compasses leads to a great story. The development of the Dalek Civil War also continues off here really well, with the introduction of the Necros Daleks, or proto Imperials if you prefer. Loyal to Davros from creation, it gives a much more interesting dynamic than having Daleks going around as one sole species, sticking 2 factions into the story really mixes well, and changes the formula. Also, the cheesey radio DJ steals the show. He's hilarious! Quick note, I ADORE the music in this story, it's dark and atmospheric, just like the story is! Good thing it's on Youtube, it's a brilliant soundtrack.
All in all, 9/10 from me. Pure excellence, start to finish.
Great article by the way Antti. Keep up the fantastic work :)
Revelation of the Daleks has been one of my favourite Dalek stories, if not my favourite, since I was a young kid. It just has such a dark and gothic vibe to it and it comes across as totally sinister. The idea of humans being used in experimentation and horrifically mutated to become monsters of mass destruction is just disturbing and really came across to show off the tone of the plot at hand. Davros had truly become an insane mad-man, a fallen shadow of his former Kaled self as seen within Genesis of the Daleks. He was insane back then but now he deemed himself a king of his own little world with ambitions of becoming the master of the universe. His dialogue to Tasambeker always gives me the chills, an example of how dark he had become. The start of the Dalek civil war was always my favourite part of the story and SPOILER ALERT Davros's capture at the end is just groundbreaking and such a memorable scene in the shows history. The darkest part of the story is that Davros had the Sixth Doctor where he wanted him and nearly defeated the Time Lord once and for all. Those brief scenes where the two characters interacted showed a clear sign of respect and how much one despised the other, a true indication of how far their dark relationship had developed over time. Overall it's just a masterpiece in my eyes and a true example of a great Dalek story and how brilliant Colin Baker was at the role.
There are few people who would disagree that this is the best Colin Baker story, and I'd put it in the top 5 of the 80s.
Alexei Sayle, typically bonkers and way over the top, he was always quite nuts with all his characters during the eighties, just check him out in The Young One's for another example. Great Article :)
Judging from what I've heard this now top of my list of classic stories I need to see also is the first part of this story a doctor lite?
This story has grown on me over time, to the point that it is probably my favourite 6th Doctor story. By the end of his 1st season he had definitely calmed down into a far more loveable Doctor. The writing, directing and characters are very stylized giving the story many memorable moments. The glass Dalek scene is one of my favourite DW scenes ever! I believe the DJ was played by a comedian at the time called Alexei Sayle, so he wasn't meant to be entirely serious, although in hindsight maybe his character could have been better thought out. Great review again, looking forward to the Seventh Era!
Great analysis, but I find this episode to feel a little lacking in places. Davros in the classic series just got worse as he went along, becoming more of a gibbering idiot and less of the subtle mastermind he once was. The DJ is awful, as is Tassambeker. But Six and Peri are good, if not brilliant, and Orcini is an interesting villain. There are some pleasantly dark concepts, but sometimes the execution falls flat. 7/10
Revelation of the Daleks is easily one of the best Dalek stories I've ever watched. It's a shame its so underrated and overlooked.
Great analysis, Antti - Revelation certainly isn't for the faint-hearted! The reveal of Stengos's head was particularly horrifying. Would they allow that sort of terror these days? I'm not sure if the fear of New Who is quite in the same league.
Oddly enough, I happen to be listening to Calvin Harris's Acceptable In The 80s right now... Which seems remarkably appropriate!
"But if you look at it from a non-linear, non-subjective point of view, it's more like a big ball of moderny-woderny story-wory type of season."
x'D Smashing!
Great article ;) Always loved how dark this one was.
Great as ever, well done :-)
@TheOncomingStorm You still got the reference :) And thanks.
@Thewarrioroftime I think this story might change your opinion on the Sixth Doctor.
@KingoftheOod4450 Actually when the Daleks don't recognisethe Doctor I thought that was brilliant. Take Power of the Daleks, the Dalek know who the 2nd Doctor is, how? And in the Day of the Daleks they use the mind probe to identify him.
@TheSoundofDrums Thanks. I'm in the process of writing the final article in the series.
"Revolutionary biscuits of Italy, rise up out of your box, you have nothing to lose but your wafers, yum yum yum yum yum."
The Young Ones and Doctor Who have other things in common ( other than Alexei Sayle)
- a lot of location work for the Young Ones was filmed in Bristol
- Christopher Ryan (Kiv in the 6th Doctor Story "MindWarp" and General Staal)
- Damaris Hayman ("Do you dig graves?")
Who doesn't have any biscuits named after Italian revolutionaries, but it has Jammie Dodgers.
@The Genie It is definitely one of the darkest stories, but it doesn't go completely over the top with it like Vengeance on Varos for example (still a good story).
@Ivegotkidneys To a certain extent yes, I'd say the first part is Doc-lite, with the story more focusing on events inside Tranquile Repose.
@Ivegotkidneys The Doctor and Peri do appear in the first part, but they don't directly interact with any of the other characters.
@TheBiPunishment Agreed, at least on the DJ. Were the writers smoking Rakweed or what when they came up with that character? XD
*Character, not villain. Damn you Livefyre and your lack of a proper edit feature!
@MaraBackman I was just waiting for someeone to pick up on that XDD
I suppose it's about the TV movie
@floppy_who Hee Hee Classic stuff.
@The Finn @Ivegotkidneys Ah right thanks

Jessica Wiant: It takes time to become a mom
"What do you do?" a lady asked last spring while I was pregnant.
"I work at a newspaper," I said.
"No, no. I said WHEN are you DUE?" she replied.
And just like that, I was relegated to a date on a calendar.
When people find out you're pregnant, usually only two things matter: The due date and whether you're having a boy or a girl.
All the rest of your life's history, where you went to school, where you're from, what music you like, what you do for a living, takes the backseat.
I confess, in the early days of my pregnancy it was something that bothered me.
However, my son is almost 9 months old now, which means I've been a parent for equally as long as I spent "in training."
As the months have gone by, parenthood gets more full of surprises.
He's crawled to me. He's stood up in his crib. He's waved and said "hi," and gotten a few teeth. He's laughed endlessly at a game of peek-a-boo and learned to pick up his own food.
There have been other changes.
Amazingly, all the questions I had and was constantly looking up online -- about baby products, breast-feeding, diapers and baby's development -- would-be parents are now asking me. A lot of the time, I even have the answers.
Not only do I love my own baby more each day, but I have a greater appreciation for the trials and triumphs of all babies. I love hearing other parents tell funny stories, and comparing notes about favorite baby foods.
The more time that passes, the more I understand the transformation that takes place once kids are in the picture.
I try to keep it in mind that the whole experience of becoming a mom can be overwhelming. I will ask a pregnant woman when her due date is, but I also try to at least ask her how she's feeling.
Once that baby comes, she'll understand: Becoming a parent doesn't happen over night, but over time it does reshape you completely.

As I am sure you are aware, these are crucial times. Indeed, we have potentially reached the global warming tipping point that we have been warned about now for years. However, this is notthe time to sit around feeling powerless and defenseless. If you are like me, you are feeling angry and apprehensive about the state of our environment and the damage that we as humans have caused. Ideally, our anger is inspiring us toward action, rather than overwhelming us toward inactivity. Anger is a powerful tool that can be channeled toward action and passion. For those of you that are involved in communities, have you considered what you can do as a group? We are capable, intelligent, and adaptable beings and when we come together we are a force to be reckoned with. This is not the time to be complacent. This is the time to draw upon all our resources- emotional, financial and time- to do something…anything.read more

This cosmic vision changes everything. The incredible thing is that from the moon, you don't see people and animals and plants as if they are separate, you see patterns of light and shade.

When you no longer believe that God is a cosmic puppeteer, why pray? An exploration of progressive Christian ideas about prayer. In the stories handed down to us from our ancestors, we hear the disciples of Jesus ask, "Lord teach us to pray!" For generations Christians have continued to seek ways to communicate with the ONE we call God. Progressive Christians seek new ways of understanding God and notions of God as a cosmic puppeteer who lives in the sky are being replaced with images which point toward the Reality which lies at the heart of all that is. As we begin to see God as the ONE who lives and breathes in, with, through, and beyond us, our understanding of prayer is evolving. This Keynote presentation includes youtube videos of John Shebly Spong – Honest Prayer Parts I and II, and Fred Plumer on Prayer and Progressive Christianity.
Though he lived in the thirteenth century, Meister Eckhart's deeply ecumenical teachings were in many ways modern. He taught about what we call ecology, championed artistic creativity, and advocated for social, economic, and gender justice. All these elements have inspired spiritual maverick Matthew Fox and influenced his Creation Spirituality. Here, Fox creates metaphorical meetings between Eckhart and Teilhard de Chardin, Thich Nhat Hanh, Carl Jung, Black Elk, Rumi, Adrienne Rich, and other radical thinkers. The result is profoundly insightful, substantive, and inspiring.read more
Preaching is, first of all, an act of the heart. In the biblical tradition, the heart is center of experience and decision-making. It embraces the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. It is embodied and incarnational as well as intellectual. Good preaching moves the preacher and congregation alike. The pastor dances with the text through his or her bodily movements as well as lively ideas. The goal of the sermon is not to provide a final destination, but as philosopher Alfred North Whitehead says, to invite congregants to be part of an "adventure of the spirit."read more
I shall argue in this essay that without the mind's faculty of imagination there would be no philosophy, no art, no music, no mathematics, no science, no religions, and no freedom of choice; that the attempts of religions to limit its expression to habits of identity, aided by the atheistic belief, now common in secular societies, that it must be applied only to material discovery, is the cause of their conflict and religious terrorism; that the crisis in modern education is similarly caused and may be similarly resolved; that the natural function of this faculty is to find manifold ways for minds to communicate, as is demonstrated by its manifestations, as described above; finally, that it is not limited to human minds, for the history of philosophy, which is also the history of humankind, would not be as it is if this were true.read more

3 Reasons Entrepreneurs Love Texas
"Texas is enjoying a rapidly growing and evolving entrepreneurial sector and it has nothing to do with the Lone Star state's famous brisket."
Healthy Living Entrepreneurs
Here's a quick guide to stay healthy on Tuesday with a busy schedule.
Dawn - Grab an iced coffee and head to the gym. The iced coffee will increase your metabolism.
Gym - 10 minute warm up on the stair master, work up a sweat. 20 minute nonstop upper body weight circuit. Finished in 30 minutes and you'll feel great all day.
Breakfast - Oatmeal with strawberries and cinnamon.
Brunch - Green smoothie.
Lunch - Chicken salad, vinaigrette dressing.
Snack - Handful of almonds.
Dinner - Fish tacos with salad and a glass of chardonnay.
That's it. A quick guide for a healthy Taco Tuesday. Stay hydrated and drink lots of water.
SXSW tips
ubmitted 11 days ago* by Mextli
Bring an extra cell phone battery or two. Chillin somewhere while your phone charges is for chumps.
Comfortable shoes.
Flask. Bring one.
Twitter will tell you about cool parties and celebs whoring themselves for attention. If you're into that, get an account and monitor it.
- @sxfreenoms
- @Sxshhh
My recommended schedule is wake up at 11 or 1130am, arrive downtown at noon. Eat from food truck and then get into trouble. Party at pure platinum or another venue until 4. Go home. Repeat x 10 days.
Movies & Films are starting to outshine the music part the more popular sxsw gets. This is opinion. If you are into big time music acts (lil wayne, kanye, bruce, jay z etc) then this may be inverse and right up your alley!
stay hydrated. many party venues have coconut water either free or for 1$. this is a quick path to rehydration.
create a fake email address and a fake facebook account. some cool parties make you sign in for free admittance. you dont want to give up more of your privacy. use the dummy accounts instead.
carry as few things as possible. cell phone. wallet. keys. flask. limit it to 5 and under so you dont lose shit. you're going to get drunk and probably high.
have a good attitude. regardless of weather, sxsw is fun.
the last weekend is harsh as everyone comes out hoping to find their rapper of choice. take the last saturday easy.
dont get overwhelmed.
study the schedule and make some cant-miss events and stick to them.
learn the movie theaters by default along with their cross streets. the austin dt naming scheme is easy breezy. rivers and numbers.
there are free buses. look into them.
bring an umbrella. you wont need it every day but you dont want to be trapped if it does rain.
cash is king. dont carry more than 100$ in 20's at any time, though.
there is an Austin subreddit
Traffic will suck from noon - midnight. If you brought\rented a car, leave it as far from downtown as you can manage. Train or pedi-cab if you can, bus or cab if you have to, car only if absolutely necessary.
a bicycle is a very convenient transportation method when all the streets are shut down. It's almost a necessity during sxsw. double bag it though and use 2 U locks.
Sunblock and chapstick are a must.
Rest. Sleep is important
Hydrate. Sodas and Alcohol DON'T count.
Travel light enough to keep your lower back in shape
Stretch regularly. This is Austin we don't care if you do Yoga in the street. It'll help keep us Weird!
Take it in stride and chill out
Meet 3 new people you wouldn't otherwise talk to
Minutes are precious. They are the building blocks of hours, which are the stuff that days are made up of. Days quickly turn into months. Months soon become years and years make a lifetime. But it all starts with the minutes. Waste enough minutes and you could waste a lifetime. ekey.biz

Case Keenum will have his best game to date
This is a picture-perfect opportunity for Case Keenum to prove his worth to head coach Gary Kubiak this week and to keep Matt Schaub on the bench.
The Jaguars don't possess a quality NFL defense, and for a quarterback who is making just his fifth start, this is the type of team he needs to face to make the improvement his coaching staff is looking for. Keenum has already played many quality defenses so far this season, so that type of competition could really be to his advantage today.
If Keenum doesn't have a signature game against Jacksonville, then that means the Texans may look into a different direction at QB next season.

tributed to the increasingly positive NAO events whose southerly winds near Europe tend to drive warm, saline Atlantic water into the Arctic (and, by inference, low salinity water back to the Atlantic) (Dickson et al., 2000). Those events provide models for the more intense salinity anomalies of the paleo-record, and perhaps of the near future. Changes in Arctic river runoff and its mixing into the Arctic Ocean may prove to be important (Dickson, 1999; Macdonald et al., 1999; Guay et al., 2001; Ekwurzel et al., 2001).
The strong interaction between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans was discussed above. During the recent period of widely varying climate in the subpolar Atlantic, the Arctic has also experienced great change. Exchange between Arctic and Atlantic is a new focus within the larger climate system. The increasing incidence of the positive phase of the AO/NAO appears to have driven warmer, more-saline Atlantic water into the Arctic and pushed back the boundary with fresher, colder waters of Pacific origin (Carmack et al., 1995, Morison et al., 1998). Warming of the polar Atlantic layer has been so striking as to be invoked in possible future melting of the sea ice cover. Attendant thinning of the sea-ice, by about 40 percent, has occurred in the central Arctic, based on comparison of data from 1993 to 1997 with those from 1958 to 1976 (Rothrock et al., 1999), but once again dynamics and greenhouse warming might be interacting or obscuring one another. Arctic ice-cover history is complex, yet full of strong climate signals (e.g., McLaren et al., 1990; Chapman and Walsh, 1993; Yueh and Kwok, 1998; Kwok et al., 1999). The relationship with AO/NAO wind forcing and temperature variability is potentially strong (Rigor et al., submitted). With positive polarity of the AO/NAO, weakening occurs of the typically high atmospheric pressure over the Beaufort Sea, together with intrusion of cyclonic flow related to the Icelandic low pressure center farther north into the Arctic. Moisture transport into the Arctic by this circulation has increased with the AO/NAO index (Dickson et al., 2000).
Attention has focused on changes in the Arctic, but concern remains that this amounts to looking under the street light, missing other high-latitude sites that are less well observed. Southern Ocean overturning has two


text: Annals of the Cold War June 19, 1995 Issue THE GENERAL AND WORLD WAR III By Richard Rhodes View Issue» THE GENERAL AND WORLD WAR III The New Yorker, June 19, 1995 P. 47 ABSTRACT: ANNALS OF THE COLD WAR about Gen. Curtis LeMay, the Cuban missile crisis, and the hawkish attitude of SAC commanders which brought the U.S. and Russia to the brink of nuclear war. During the Cuban missile crisis, the determination of LeMay and some of his subordinates to follow military logic, subverting Presidential authority to do so, nearly led to full-scale nuclear war with the Soviet Union. The United States came much closer to self-inflicted nuclear destruction at that time than most Americans realize. Tells how in 1961, the U.S. went to DefCon 2 and how Gen. Thomas Power, LeMay's successor, had a sinister reputation. Describes how he and LeMay advocated all-out nuclear war at this time. Mentions the loose security precautions surrounding the Minuteman I solid fuel missiles then being deployed; a false alarm which almost sent F-106s with nuclear-tipped missiles into the air under the impression that they were to intercept bombers, at a time when SAC was having a bomber drill in the area which the fighters were unaware of, an apparent missile launch from Cuba with a near-Tampa trajectory, which was determined only after predicted impact to have been a computer test tape; nuclear bombers which in an act of provocation flew past their usual turning points near Russia; a "test launching" of an ICBM into the South Pacific in the middle of the crisis, and later knowledge that the Soviets had in place medium-range missiles tipped with hydrogen bombs that could have destroyed Washington, as well as nuclear artillery shells which they would have used in event of an American invasion.

|i kinda like running
No, it's not an excessive amount of alcohol if this were an every-now-and-then sort of thing. But hell, we're talking about a nightly occurrence. A bottle of wine every night. That's alot of f***ing wine for one person. The volume of alcohol he's consuming in one night is not the issue of concern here. It's the fact that he's doing it habitually. I'm guessing it started with a glass or two and evolved to 750ml over time as he developed a tolerance. Just because he isn't getting sloshed and beating his woman doesn't mean there isn't a problem.
To the OP, I'm not trying to judge you here or make you feel bad. I had a habit similar to yours for a while. I'm just suggesting that you be honest about your habits and their origins, development, purpose, etc. You may find that you have a problem, maybe not. But I really don't think advice like, "Aw man, a bottle of wine ain't shit! Drink up!" is helpful.
|Try Again
Actually, the research shows that the negatives outweigh the benefits if more than one glass is consumed per day.
|The Teacher
|Nut Doctor
I think the odds are about 99% that you are an alcoholic. As someone else mentioned, you should test yourself by abruptly stopping all alcohol for a month. Can you do it?
OTOH, there's plenty of people in this world that drink a bottle of wine per day. This is not the healthiest thing to do, but not suicidal either, particularly if you are a runner.
|johnny chimpo
Agreed, you are what is known as a functioning alcoholic. You're not getting "wasted," it's not affecting work or relationships to a terrible degree, but . . . you probably have a dependency on alcohol. As has already been suggested, see if you can give it up for a while; just try one night. If you can't get through one night, you should seek help. I didn't notice if you stated how long you've been drinking a bottle a night, but it may have detrimental affects on your life and health eventually.
I'd like to thank everyone for the serious, intelligent replies. I'll try to respond to a few things: (And I don't want to try to justify etc. I'm very serious about this question and curious about my behaviour.)
"Every Night" should read "Most Nights" because some nights I am at work, so no wine then. On those nights I never feel like I am missing it in a big way.
I never feel like wine before 6pm on most days.
I never feel like I want/need more than a bottle. (Ooops, that comment may draw a lot of derishion!?)
Yes I often drink alone, because I do many things alone: reading, film, internet.
I'm late 40s. I began drinking wine regularly in early 40s.
I'll try to look at some more posts now. Thank you letsrunners for these responses so far.
That would really piss me off, just as missing coffee every morning would, or missing running. I feel like I'm very set in my ways.
Honestly I'm very interested in considering / weighing posts like yours. Thank you.
|I also like wine
A bottle of wine is not that bad for you. There are lots of other things that you could be doing that would be far worse. That said, this is clearly a bad habit. There is no question that you would be healthier if you drank less. How much does it affect your running? Possibly significantly, possibly very slightly; what's almost certain is that it isn't helping.
I've gone through periods where I've consumed similar amounts of alcohol to what you're drinking, and I agree that I generally feel OK while I'm doing it. I also go through periods where I don't drink at all, and I'm pretty sure I feel better during these times. Also, the decision not to drink tends to be part of a general commitment to being healthier, which is definitely good for my running.
We can argue endlessly about how bad it really is to drink a bottle of wine every night, but I think we can agree on this: it's not a good habit. There are better and healthier ways to spend your evenings.
|moons over my hammy
Try it anyway. You will learn a lot about whether it is too much or how much it is affecting you. You may think it is not affecting you, but when you stop for a month you will see subtle differences. Alcohol affects you for 3-4 days on a subtle level, so just try it and see for yourself. If you were drinking 6 cups of coffee every morning I would suggest doing the same thing.
I do drink a lot of coffee every morning, and sometimes I have ice cream after dinner. I accept that these are not "good" habits. Perhaps I eat too much bread also.
I'm not trying to justify 750ml most days. But I'm no angel in other areas. I only sleep 4-5hrs a night too. So yes indeed, I have a few habits that are not "good" habits.
At what point would everyone say "it's perfectly OK"? 500ml daily? 250ml?
I think, in my life, I am ok with drinking a whole bottle by myself probably more often than I should b/c I have no other vices in my life, and really no other bad habits other than forgetting to recycle every now and then. I think you have to take into account ALL the bad things in your life and see how they all affect you, especially combined. I drink like a good german catholic girl has been raised to, but I also get 8 hours + sleep a night, I don't smoke, I don't eat junk food/fried food/go out to eat all the time, I don't do caffiene, sleeping pills, creatine, soda, so to me, I think it's ok to have one unhealthy release/vice.
|moons over my hammy
I'd say the point would be when you are not talking about your alcohol consumption on letsrun.com or asking if people think it's to much.
I think you've made a very good point. ie If I'm concerned enough to do this, then it IS a problem?
But (damn, I hate buts), don't people make threads about too much bread? Too much gatorade? Too much anaerobic work?
If I am concerned enough to make this thread and ask these questions, is that automatically a real problem?
|The Teacher
Here's some help on the difference between "to" and "too".
teacher, go away.
to wino, i would be a little concerned--this is coming from a recovering alcoholic. hell, i was drinking 16-25 beers a night and feeling ok for work the next day. i never touched a beer until five. i was very well versed in lying, and convincing myself that it was ok because of this and that. i'm not saying you have a problem, but it's something to be considered. i was drinking heavily, and regularly, for ten years and never lost a job or a girlfriend, and ran a 2:44 marathon (my pr) in the process, the morning after smoking 10 cigs and drinking at least a bottle of wine. it's not a path i would suggest. just think about it. it encourages me that you're in your forties, while i was in my teens when i started.
feel free to contact me.

Just out of curiosity, what do average spending on a bottle of red wine? I don't know if you're drinking too much or not, but if you're dropping 15-20 clams a bottle, that is an expensive habit. But, you're also in your late 40s so that may be nothing to you.
Thanks for the continued serious responses.
As for $, I've done that math, and we are looking at about $3G a year. (I like somewhat cheap stuff.) Or maybe $8 a day. These numbers do not bother me. I feel that it is a fair price to pay! (It is less than 5% annual income.)
The paragraph above.....is that an alcoholic justifying things? I honestly don't know. This never bothered me until people close to me expressed shock.
Anyway.....I couldn't drink early in the day. I cringe at the tought of morning drinks.
But don't most (all?) alcoholics want it most anytime?
I haven't had wine yet today. I'm not craving it. I merely enjoy it a hell of a lot.
Anyway I just want to write my honest thoughts and perhaps you will be kind enough to continue your comments.
Thank you.
I've gone through phases when I've consumed a bottle each night. It is usually over a few hours and accompanied by a lot of water. It has never involved getting drunk or any other negative side effects. I have also done this while running every day for months at a time, 75-95 mpw, and running marathons in the 2:34-2:40 range. From a lifestyle side, it probably would be better to consume half a bottle per night. From a running standpoint, it would also probably be better to consume half a bottle per night. While I think there are many worse things in the world, my experience is that 2 glasses per night is better than 4. While the cut it out entirely experiment might also be helpful, why not try just stopping at 2 glasses. Red wine is a "cozy" drink (sorry, it was the best word I could come up with) so perhaps try a glass of pomegranite juice, cranberry juice, or something similar.
|reason for concern
I think that there is a lot of reason for concern. Even if you aren't an alcoholic, you are drinking at a rate that is almost certainly detrimental to your health.
The existing research suggests that drinking 1-2 drinks a day is better for your health than abstaining. However, for every drink beyond 2, the health risks increase substantially. By 3 drinks, you probably worse off than abstainers. It is my understanding that by 5 or 6 drinks per day (where you are), there is a very substantial correlation negative health outcomes.
It sounds like you have been able maintain normalcy at your current level of consumption, but you may be an alcoholic (I think that you are). Even if you aren't an alcoholic, you are almost certainly heading towards a premature death. If you think that's a worthwhile trade-off and if your habit doesn't worsen (both big ifs), then by all means continue. But at the very least, you should be aware that you are losing years off of your life expectancy

What were the consequences of the CFMA?
" data-share-img="" data-share="twitter,facebook,linkedin,reddit,google" data-share-count="true">
Newsweek.com is doing a big month-long series on the end of the decade, and, inevitably, it's going to feature lots of listicles. One of them is a list of the top ten "history altering decisions" — seemingly-small moves that had massive consequences. Each one is going to be written up, and Newsweek has asked me for a very short essay (just 200 words or so) on the consequences of Bill Clinton signing the Commodity Futures Modernization Act in 2000.
Top of mind at Newsweek are the Enron collapse and the unregulated rise of the CDS market — can those fairly be ascribed to the CFMA? Are there any other key consequences of the CFMA's passage which I should include? Newsweek has given me full freedom to crowdsource this, so if you ever thought you might have a CFMA blog entry in you somewhere, now's the time to write the thing, or just leave a comment here. Thanks!
We welcome comments that advance the story through relevant opinion, anecdotes, links and data. If you see a comment that you believe is irrelevant or inappropriate, you can flag it to our editors by using the report abuse links. Views expressed in the comments do not represent those of Reuters. For more information on our comment policy, see http://blogs.reuters.com/fulldisclosure/2010/09/27/toward-a-more-thoughtful-conversation-on-stories/
The CFMA constituted in part an experiment that didn't work. It removed an informal prohibition that had existed in the US on the listing of single-stock futures (SSF). There were some enthusiasts of this aspect of the bill (I was one of them) who thought that SSFs would be eagerly embraced by a waiting public and fill a vital gap in the marketplace.
It didn't happen. The SSF is the great "dog who didn't bark" of the turn of the century.
If you are doing a story on the end of the decade, shouldn't you wait until the end of the decade to do it. That would be 12/31/2010.
CFMA (following Glass-Steagall repeal) confirmed that Wall Street and ISDA could control law and regulation to a degree never before imagined, dictating laws to order. CFMA's passage meant that Wall Street no longer had to fear Washington, just write what it wanted and buy it off. Phil Gramm (whose wife Wendy was chairman of the CFTC) is the poster boy for the decade of crony capitalism that followed.
Superintendent Eric Dinallo of the New York State Insurance Department did a good job explaining the learned lessons of history that were undone by the CFMA. (available at http://www.ins.state.ny.us/speeches/pdf/ sp0811201.pdf)
"Bucket shops" arose in the late nineteenth century. Customers "bought" securities or commodities on these unauthorized exchanges, but in reality the bucket shop was simply booking the customer's order without executing on an exchange. In fact, they were simply throwing the trade ticket in the bucket, which is where the name comes from, and tearing it up when an opposite trade came in. The bucket shop would agree to take the other side of the customer's "bet" on the performance of the security or commodity. Bucket shops sometimes survived for a time by balancing their books, but were wiped out by extreme bull or bear markets. When their books failed, the bucketeers simply closed up shop and left town, leaving the "investors" holding worthless tickets.
The Bank Panic of 1907 is famous for J.P. Morgan, the leading banker of the time, calling all the other bankers to a meeting and keeping them there until they agreed to form a consortium of bankers to create an emergency backstop for the banking system. At the time there was no Federal Reserve. But a more lasting result was passage of New York's anti-bucket shop law in 1909. The law, General Business Law Section 351, made it a felony to operate or be connected with a bucket shop or "fake exchange." Because of the specificity and severity of the much-anticipated legislation virtually all bucket shops shut down before the law came into effect, and little enforcement was necessary. Other states passed similar laws.
Fast forward to the present. Section 408(c) of the CFMA, codified as 7 USC 27f(c), provided:
Sections 27 to 27f of this title shall supersede and preempt the application of any State or local law that prohibits or regulates gaming or the operation of bucket shops (other than antifraud provisions of general applicability) in the case of
(1) a hybrid instrument that is predominantly a banking product; or
(2) a covered swap agreement.
Note the reference to gaming laws. It doesn't get any clearer than that. Congress legalized gambling by large financial institutions.
[I wrote a short paper on the CFMA and its application to the CDS market in relation to the financial crisis. Feel free to contact me by email.]
Up until the CFMA was passed, it was illegal for traders to trade single stock futures even though they were being traded in other parts of the world. The amount of leverage made available came with a corresponding risk. Therein lie the problem. The debt to equity ratio became inbalanced and the slippery slope was made even more dangerous. No one seems to hang this on Clinton's neck. He's such a nice guy.
Second the comments above by London Banker.
the fate of Brooksley Born, who questioned this legislation, sent a very clear message to regulatory officials that there was little political will to regulate anything much at all any more.
So here we are…
Just list Brooksley Born's concerns and her fate at the hands of the sponsors and supporters of the act and you're pretty much done.
Then go on and add a bit on the exemptions granted to GS, CITI et al that allowed them to trade commodities, as they were 'immaterial' at the time. They're not so immmaterial now (Phibro) and without the exemptions CITI wouldn't be able to fund its core banking functions without this huge profit center.
Plus the act was clearly a ringing bell that regulator capture was the law of the land.
Barry Ritholtz dedicates a lot of time to the CFMA in his book Bailout Nation. Just contact him and I'm sure he'll provide all you'd ever need to write the 200 word piece. In my opinion it's a pretty important and damning piece of legislation.
CFMA enabled Enron. It enabled Enron's highly leveraged, risky derivatives trading. That trading was funded by short term borrowing and Enron was undone by a good old cash crisis when credit lines were withdrawn by banks overnight. When, much too late, the SEC paid attention, it focused mostly on Fastow's off-balance sheet fraud and other accounting chicanery. Andy's antics and AA's coverup were clearly illegal and to an agency needing to wield a hammer, they were suitable nails. So we ended up with SOX but nobody focused on the
some of the most important lessons of Enron's downfall. No attention to risky derivatives, no attention to liquidity risk arising from short term funding, no attention to leverage. Indeed, in 2004, the SEC agreed to let the I-banks expand their leverage, a decision high on the list of contributors to the debacle. Enron was a harbinger of the fall of Bear, Lehman, Merrill and others but attention wasn't paid.
Another key decision that led to the mess was FASB's 2003 decision, under intense pressure from banks, to exempt QSPEs used for securitization from consolidation.
Other factors were important but not so easy to tie to a particular act or time. At what point do you say the Fed should have realized the money supply needed tightening? How to categorize the many sins of omission such as the Fed's failure to deal with poor underwriting
standards or the NY Insurance Commissioner's failure (and inability?) to deal with AIG's FP division. Where to start on the failings of the NSROs?

Nature Boy Lyrics - George Benson
There was a boy
Very strange
Enchanted boy;
They say be wander'd very far
Very far over land and sea.
A little shy and sad of eye
But very wise
Very wise was be.
And then one day
A magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
This he said to me:
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return
sponsored linksTo be loved in return.
And then one day...

Tagin' Dragon (NES) review
"If you walked up to a ramshackle grocery store with a few broken windows, pealing and mismatched paint, and a sign outside that read, OPIN FOR BIZNISS, would you go inside and start shopping? Likewise, if you popped a game into your NES and the first screen you saw was that of a poorly designed, color-changing dragon that looked like it strayed from a low budget lollipop commercial and a title that read Tagin' Dragon, would you play? No, I didn't misspell that. The actual title screen say..."

The San Francisco 49ers finally showed up to play this preseason, defeating the San Diego Chargers 21-7 for their first win at Levi's Stadium.
Colin Kaepernick and the 49er offense was absolutely atrocious in the first quarter with the right side of the line constantly being beaten to the line of the scrimmage. The result was that the first 12 plays run by San Francisco, resulted in a grand total of just 14 yards.
Kaepernick was roughed up in the pocket and lost a fumble one series after refs overruled what should have been fumble on a Kaepernick scramble.
In the second quarter, the 49er offense finally clicked marching downfield before Phil Dawson hit his first field goal in Levi's, where he had missed his previous two attempts.
Blaine Gabbert entered midway through the second quarter and led the 49ers on a touchdown scoring drive, the final play a 6-yard pass to tight end Vance McDonald.
It was Gabbert's best performance this preseason as he finished with a QB rating of 110.4, his QB rating through two games had been 17.1.
Josh Johnson was once again consistent, completing 5 of 8 passes for 52 yards and successfully converting a 2-point conversion with a pass to receiver Lance Lewis.
Running back Glenn Winston made the biggest play of the game on offense, breaking away for a 27-yard touchdown run in the 4th quarter that increased the Niner lead to 19-7.
Rookie Jimmie Ward intercepted his first pass in the NFL.
Overall, Sunday's performance was exactly what the 49ers needed. They hit the end zone twice with Gabbert and Johnson each leading a drive and were defensively stout, stuffing San Diego several times on short yardage situations.
The 49ers will play their final preseason game Thursday night in Houston before kicking off the regular season in Dallas on September 7.

favorite. Pastry chef Gale praises Stephanie's wedding cake. Tom loved Antonia's
pizza. Padma thought Richard's brisket was fantastic. I think Padma's, um, brisket
region is looking mighty fantastic, too.
Guest judge Gale gets to pick the winner, and she picks —
man this is getting automatic — Richard. But then he says he wants to name
Stephanie the winner. So she gets the $2,000 gift certificate to Crate &
Barrel. And then she says she wants to share it with Richard. It's a lovefest
between the two honorary chefbians. Kumbaya, anyone?
Cold feet — Now
it's Team Groom's turn to face the judgey music as the losing team. The judges
ask who did what. They then ask who was in charge.
Nikki: In no way
am I playing executive chef in this.
Does this seem like a winning strategy to anyone?
So, what did they like? Lisa's cake. What did they dislike? Just
about everything else.

Do we expect an unsaved person to live free in the Truth BEFORE the Truth has set him or her Free? How unLoved has this man felt at the hands and feet of those who punched and kicked him in the name of God? And not just him, but all who have suffered beatings and epithets and discrimination and isolation -- which are NOT our privilege to administer in our Great Commission. The question is, for me anyway, How can we GIVE them ENOUGH LOVE to help them overcome their reasonable fear -- Not of God, but of US?
