Fairness and Freedom
New Zealand and America have much in common. Both have democratic polities, mixed enterprise economies, pluralist cultures, and a deep concern for human rights and the rule of law. But all of these elements take different forms because constellations of values are not the same. For America it's all about living free and in New Zealand it's about natural justice.
Michael Duffy: Our next guest has written one of the more unusual books I've read in a long time. David Hackett Fischer teaches history at Brandeis University in America, he is a very highly regarded historian whose books include Albion's Seed, and Liberty and Freedom. The latter book is about the two guiding ideals of American democracy, and that's a subject to which he returns in his latest book, but in a very unexpected manner. This book's called Fairness and Freedom and it's nothing less than a comparison of the United States with our own neighbour and New Zealand.
David, welcome to the program.
David Hackett Fischer: Thanks, glad to be with you.
Michael Duffy: I don't think all that many Americans would be able to locate New Zealand on a map. How did you become interested and familiar with the country?
David Hackett Fischer: I was invited to talk at Auckland University about my book Albion's Seed. Many New Zealanders think they're Albion's seed, and I got started that way. And then my wife and I began to travel around the country. The invitation led to others at I think all but one of the universities. So we saw a good deal of both islands. And we happened to be passing through Canterbury while a by-election was underway, and it looked like an American election but it didn't sound like an American election. We couldn't quite sort that out, and then suddenly it dawned on us that none of the New Zealand candidates were very actively interested in talking about liberty and freedom. But they were passionately engaged in talking about fairness, and not fairness in detail but as the organising principle of an open society. And that got us started.
Michael Duffy: Yes, this idea of fairness, it's not something that many of us here would have thought about much before, but Americans don't talk about it all that much, do they?
David Hackett Fischer: Not so much. I think in daily discourse we use 'fairness' as much as any other English speaker, but we don't think about organising our politics or our Constitution around an idea of fairness. In New Zealand it's in the Bill of Rights, fairness and something that is called natural justice. And Geoffrey Palmer, who drafted the New Zealand Bill of Rights, said that natural justice can be understood as fairness. We don't have that word in our Constitution, though much is said about freedom and liberty.
Michael Duffy: And obviously this piqued your curiosity and we'll talk about that at some length in a moment. But I'm just interested, on a personal level how did New Zealand and the New Zealanders strike you? Did you like the place?
David Hackett Fischer: We loved it. I can't imagine many people would feel otherwise. I actually began by looking at the books that travellers had written about New Zealand from the beginning of European settlement. And people are almost unanimous in celebrating first of all the beauty of the country, and then something about the people and the way they respond to others in their midst. We found that, as many others have done as well.
Michael Duffy: Indeed, it's a great place. Getting back to fairness, not many books, if any, have been written about that subject before, have they.
David Hackett Fischer: Not so many. There is one great work of philosophy by John Rawls, it's called Justice Is Fairness, and he was I think the first philosopher to write a treatise about fairness. He understood fairness as justice to individuals rather than justice to groups of people. He was arguing against ideas like the greatest good for the greatest number, which seemed to him to be in some ways unfair to individuals.
And then I think my book may be the first history of fairness. Only a fragment of the subject, but historians haven't been very much interested in it for some reason, I don't quite understand why. One thing that's happening is I think interest is growing today, we can measure it, we have a new tool for looking at these vernacular ideas, ideas in our ordinary speech, and it's called Google Ngrams. These are ways of dipping into the corpus of all the books that Google have digitised, and they've done millions of books.
One group of them is called A Million English Books, and we looked about to find out how the frequency of fairness has changed through time, first of all in British usage, and also how liberty and freedom changed. And we discovered that liberty and freedom was very common at its peak, liberty in particular, in the 17th and 18th centuries, which was the period when British colonies in North America were founded. And fairness began to grow very rapidly in the early 19th century and reached very high levels around 1840 when British colonisation of New Zealand began to develop rapidly.
Michael Duffy: David, both New Zealand and the US were settler societies, and yet, as you've explained in your book, they had some different values. It could be argued that other settler societies such as Brazil or Australia have a different primary values again. Speaking generally for the moment, what is it that determines the values that take root in such a society?
David Hackett Fischer: Well, I think one part of it, but only one part, would be the cultural baggage that settlers would bring in. Another would be the values of the indigenous people. Another factor might be the question of scale on which…the size of the country, and New Zealand and the US being very different that way. It meant that New Zealanders began to run out of arable land in about two generations. In the US the supply of arable land held up through 16 generations.
Michael Duffy: There's a number of very interesting things there, can we just go through them one by one? I mean, cultural baggage for a start. I suspect you alluded to this when you were describing the language search before. Does the period in which these countries were settled by England, that made a big difference, did it?
David Hackett Fischer: I think that's right, and it's a question of timing.
Michael Duffy: Can you talk about that a bit? With America maybe to start with?
David Hackett Fischer: Well, in America the British colonies were settled in a period when in the mother country there were bitter struggles under way in the politics of Britain, and there were questions more about tyranny, about power in that regard. But then in the 19th century when New Zealand was settled, I think many people who came from Britain did not feel that their liberty was problematic to them. They did feel that England was bitterly unfair in its social conditions, social structure. And I think they came to New Zealand with a determination of building a society that could in some way correct or speak to that sort of problem. Both of these groups of settlers were interested in creating the good society, a society that would be a kind of model to the old world. But they had different purposes in mind that way. They came from their experience.
Michael Duffy: That's very interesting, and Australia was founded somewhat in between, which I suppose helps explain why we are different yet again.
David Hackett Fischer: I think so. I've never been to Australia. I have been reading about it but I've avoided talking about Australia, but I do think that it is a third way when we come to it from New Zealand and the US, it is not to be aligned with one of them against another. It has its own history.
Michael Duffy: It's funny you should say that because, yes, as I read your book I kept thinking that we were somewhere in the middle, I kept being drawn to the different poles that you've got in the book. Can you tell us a little bit about the way that the two countries, New Zealand and America, were settled? Maybe that's the role of government and how government involved in each of them also contributed to their values.
David Hackett Fischer: In the States there were different migrations from England which had very different ideas about the role of government. The people who settled in New England were comfortable with a very active presence of government in their lives because they thought of government as belonging to them, they ran their own communities through their town meetings and that sort of thing.
But in the back country, many people who came to the American appellations came from the borderlands of north Britain, came from the lowlands of Scotland, the six northern counties of England, and they grew up in that area which had two governments who both claimed to own and control it. And for the people who lived there for 1,000 years, those two governments brought them nothing but violence, misery, exploitation. And they grew up with a great hostility to government in general, and they came to the back country, and they're still in the southern highlands, they're in Texas. They had an idea of liberty which they represented as a rattlesnake, and underneath was that expression 'Don't tread on me'. It was first-person singular. And I think people in that part of the world still think that way. They have the lowest level of taxation in America, they hate taxes, they don't like government. New England has for going on four centuries been much more comfortable with an active government.
Michael Duffy: There is a rhetoric of hostility to government and that obsession with liberty that we in Australia find very hard to understand, and I suppose New Zealanders feel the same. And of course New Zealand itself, it was settled in some cases by fairly idealistic and philanthropic projects, wasn't it, run by people in England.
David Hackett Fischer: Yes, I think that's right. There were different colonies there. People spoke of the six colonies of New Zealand, and without going through them all, the settlement of Otago was not English, it was Scottish, and very strong Calvinist leaders, very much like New England in some ways. And they were the first to found the colleges, they were very active in creating institutions in that part of New Zealand. Auckland was founded more by entrepreneurs who were in pursuit of profit, and they created a very different kind of society there.
Michael Duffy: David, what about the issue of geography, which you did raise before? Do you think the fact that America is not only a bigger place but in terms of natural abundance far richer, do you think that had something to do too with the fact that these notions, this emphasis on freedom and liberty was able to persist for so long there?
David Hackett Fischer: Absolutely, I think that was something that made a fundamental difference. In America it was possible for people, because of the abundance of the land and other things, to think that a kind of social justice could be achieved in a very open system because there was more to go around. But in New Zealand when they began to run up against the limits, by the 1890s, which was about 50 years after the major settlements were planted, they were running short. And so what they began to do was to redistribute the land. This was in the so-called Lib-Lab governments that ran New Zealand for about 20 years. They were very successful in trying to do that in what people would take to be a fair way. They didn't confiscate any land, it was always with a willing seller. And they were looking for a way of doing it by justice and fairness that everybody could accept as legitimate, and they redistributed a good deal of land in New Zealand. There is a map in my book about the lands that were redivided that way, and I think in that process we can see the scale and the resource riches of these two countries being a major factor. I think here again Australia would be a third way, and I would think very complex too in its abundance, but also in the quality of the land.
Michael Duffy: Can we move now and talk a bit about how government developed in response to some of the forces that you've just described to us. You nominate critical periods in each country's history that helped shape the national institutions. Would you mind describing them for us, perhaps starting with the American events of 1783 to '89, with which probably most of our listeners aren't terribly familiar.
David Hackett Fischer: Yes, it was interesting for me to see the ways in which both countries, I think many countries, developed through a series of generations in which the really remarkable leaders emerged. And I find this to be the case wherever I look, whatever country I've studied, and I've been studying others in addition to these two. But in the US, broadly speaking the generation of the American Revolution, and these were our so-called founding fathers, they would be people like Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton, and they were really very interesting people in the diversity of their thought and also their creativity. They really responded to a very difficult moment after we achieved our independence, the question was; what's next? And we could have gone the way that other countries went, other countries often had great difficulty creating stable institutions after a major revolution, but they worked together in creating a very complex federalist system that worked on a large scale.
Then there were a series of other generations that followed in America, and I'm just always amazed at the creativity of these groups. And the same thing happened in New Zealand. There was a critical periods there. They had begun by in some ways following the American system, and they created something like a federal structure in New Zealand in 1840, and it didn't work very well. It got too cumbersome, it was too costly, it created levels of government that were difficult to sustain in the small system.
And so they had another critical period and they centralised their institutions. They did it very quickly around 1870. And it gave New Zealand I think one of the most centralised, open societies amongst all the English-speaking people. A large part of it was about scale, but it was also about other things. When they discussed this very complex system of government, the founders in that generation almost invariably said the major problem with their federal system is it's not fair, it's not just. And so they responded to that. Whereas the American founders said the problem with the system, it's not free, it is not sufficiently free. And so they were guided by these different basic principles that turned them in different directions.
I was really very interested to see generations of New Zealanders responding again and again to very difficult moments in New Zealand history. New Zealand had a rough time in the 1880s, they call it the Black '80s. And another group came in in the early 1890s and transformed New Zealand's institutions. It happened several times in New Zealand in the 20th century. I think if I were to work over Australia's history I'd find exactly the same thing, and we have a lot to learn from these groups because they usually were able to make their systems work in better ways or even just to work at all. And we're having a lot of trouble with that in the States right now, as you probably know, and one thing that frustrates me is the people who are running our system have forgotten its history, they've forgotten how people did it, and that's my job, to try to jog their memory.
Michael Duffy: For sure, well, maybe we can all learn something from each other.
David Hackett Fischer: Absolutely.
Michael Duffy: Let's just look at one or two specific examples now of the sort of fairness that may have emerged from some of the processes you've described. You make an interesting point about women's suffrage, that in New Zealand it came in for national elections in 1893, which of course was the first in the world, but in the US it didn't happen until 1920, although it had happened a lot earlier in state elections. Why the difference between the two countries?
David Hackett Fischer: We had feminist movements from the 18th century, and they pick up the language of the American Revolution. One of the first feminist movements wrote a Declaration of Sentiments which compared all men to George III, as tyrants over all women. And then the feminists who did that then asked these men for their vote in introducing women's suffrage and they didn't get it. And in New Zealand something very interesting happened, the New Zealand women's leaders were as radical and determined in what they were trying to do as were the Americans, but they went about it in a different way. They appealed to the men who were controlling the political system not on grounds of the liberty and freedom of women, but on the grounds of justice and fairness to all. And they argued that the way forward was in a kind of harmony, and men responded to that, they responded I think more easily than when they were being bashed by every generation of feminists.
We've had a series of problems in the US, the Equal Rights Amendment almost passed in the 20th century, it would have guaranteed equal pay for equal work for women, but it missed just by one state in the ratification of it as a Constitutional Amendment. And I think it was these tactics, once again it was in-your-face feminism, it was declaring men to be the enemy. And New Zealanders did that differently and they got better results.
Michael Duffy: Yes, they framed it differently, to use a modern term. David, in conclusion, what lessons do you think New Zealand might be able to provide America?
David Hackett Fischer: New Zealand I think can provide lessons to the world on what fairness can mean, how it can work. They can also help us in some ways with ideas of fairness that don't work. And I think we can see New Zealand as a kind of laboratory of ideas of fairness. In the same way I think we can see the history of the United States as a laboratory of liberty and freedom, and there we can see some of its strengths. We can also see that all of these great virtues (I think of these ideas as virtues), they also can generate their own vices, and we can see that working. The history of the US can be instructive that way, and New Zealand for the vices of fairness in the same way. So for me this is not a story only about the US and New Zealand, this is a world historical story, this is about ideas that everybody in the world can learn from.
Michael Duffy: It's an absolutely fascinating story. David, thanks very much for joining us today.
David Hackett Fischer: Pleasure.

An interesting segment, the bits I caught. Will catch up with the whole program later. His impressions of New Zealand matched ours when we visited a few years ago, evreryone should aim to experience NZ for the landsacpe, the people and the culture.. a lot to offer.

Interesting article. What hadn't occurred to me is that a country can develop a culture that could be positive in some aspects and negative in others. New Zealand's concept of fairness makes it a most desirable place to live. America's concept of "freedom" makes it a guiding light for the worlds developing democracies. But there is a down side to "freedom" that would have me living in New Zealand before America. This "Freedom" cultural aspect of America has become so distorted that it has created a society of great disparity. A privileged elite few who against the modest middle class and the masses of underprivileged who can't even get health care. It is your own fault that you do not have, despite myriad causes of poverty that you can do nothing about. It's your fault. Universal Health Care in America is laughable as it sees this as socialism, a breech of their "freedom" culture, and not a right. The cold war is over guys.
Does "Freedom" have limits? If I am free to do anything I want, even if it hurts someone, should I be allowed to do it. Or should "Freedom" be tempered by commonsense and civilized norms.
Like I said. A thought provoking article, that resulted in the above thoughts.

I noticed early in the interview that the Professor said "Well, I think one part of it, but only one part, would be the cultural baggage that settlers would bring in. Another would be the values of the indigenous people."
You talked about the first thing, the cultural baggage and I would have been interested in hearing his ideas about that last thing; how did the thinking of the original culture influence the resulting settler/invader culture?
Further on, the Professor says with reference to women and women's rights movements: "They appealed to the men who were controlling the political system not on grounds of the liberty and freedom of women, but on the grounds of justice and fairness to all. And they argued that the way forward was in a kind of harmony, and men responded to that, they responded I think more easily than when they were being bashed by every generation of feminists."
I thought the Professor made a good effort to appear to be unbiased (non-sexist), but the emotive word 'bashed' gave him away. He is saying that feminists in America bashed men to achieve liberty and freedom? And that's a bad thing because they should have been nicer to the men and that way they would have got what they wanted.
But perhaps the Professor means back then and not now or do you think he is still advising women that they should behave like 'real' women and appeal to the male emotional sensibilities to get what they want. Is he saying that women can't have the dignity of arguing for equal rights through reason and protest? The same behaviour that would be admired in a man is not admired in a woman; we have to be more grown up, more caring and less driven by ego and a desire to achieve success.
Women should cater to the male ego (or lack of?) by moderating their behaviour so as not to annoy the men in power? Isn't that sneaky and manipulative?

Julie, please read the transcript. And take a few deep breaths. Fischer is proposing an example in history where protagonism has achieved a result in N.Z. that antagonism has nobbled in the U.S. to this day. The tangents you're on are a bit of a Verbal on the good Professor.
Just because the opposing sides are empowered men and disempowered females -which I guess you might identify the prof and yourself with- doesn't mean you can give him an in-your-face femi-Nazi bashing over it.
Julie Thomas :
01 Jun 2012 3:17:45pm
Dave so you thought that tame little diatribe was "an in your face fem-Nazi bashing"? No way, you are winding me up, eh? Else you blokes are sensitive little petals, or as prone to exaggeration as women are supposed to be.
Don't need the advice, I practise mindfulness it's what gives me the strength to go on fighting the good fight against all you male oppressors. But sweet of you to care for my welfare though. I won't suggest any remedies for your 'limitations', that would be presumptuous of me and extraordinarily patronising, no?
So to get back to the good professor and his interviewers; now call me a conspiracy theorist but I think this is a plot by the world wide conservative movement to induce women to accept 'justice and fairness' in exchange for remembering our place.
Did it occur to you that perhaps the women in the US, those militant women who behaved so badly were
1. asking for justice and fairness from men who didn't believe in as the New Zealand men did and so never had buckley's of getting it no matter what they did and...
2. that it is probable that these nasties began by asking nicely and got nowhere.
Sounds like the real story to me.

Perhaps David Allen would prefer the health care systems of Canada and Europe where you have to wait months or years for surgery (often in excruciating pain or dying before time is up) or where the hospital conditions are crappy.
On the other hand, your chances of survival if you have cancer are the highest if you live in the US and this goes for people of all incomes. The US system is the best in the world - Saudi Princes and European Politicians go to Miami or California for treatment, not London or Brussels.
In Canada you're better off being an animal as veterinary services are private and you can pay for a procedure for your pooch the next day!
But it is so great because it is 'free' even though Europe is drowning in debt thanks to such largesse of the government.

I was very pleased to hear David Fischer, as he is the author of one of the most brilliant books I have ever read, THE GREAT WAVE, originally published in 1996. It is an economic history of the last 800 years, and everyone should read it, especially if they want to understand what is happening now. I have always wondered why the book and its author have not received more prominence.

Professor Fischer made a number of interesting observations - it's only disappointing that he didn't extend his research and discussion to include Australia and Canada. As many American states were founded by religious sects fleeing persecution in Europe, religious freedom is a tenet of the American political culture. This freedom, expressed as the right to the pursuit of happiness has been transformed into a right to pursue wealth.
One tenet of Canadian political culture is good government, hence no Canadian provinces have upper houses (most never did), criminal law is a federal matter, most cities are governed by one large local government and public schools, which educate about 95% of students in Canada, are run by elected local boards. What Canada and the USA share is that where labour relations are subject to formal agreements, they are between an employer and the union for the unionised employees at that one site, hence wages for any given occupation may vary from one locality to another, as do living costs. While New Zealanders might not see this as fair, few North Americans would want to part with the use of low labour costs to attract investment to a poorer locale.
In "The High Price of Heaven", David Marr observed that the environment under which Australia was first settled by convicts, the authorities developed a mentality that populace had to be watched, regulated and controlled, a mentality which today manifests in the Sydney Anglican archdiocese being one of few in the world which won't ordain women. Another manifestation is that public services of health, education and transport in Australia are almost intentionally mediocre at best with those of means expected to buy private alternatives. Although this is trumpeted as "freedom", if we had NZ journalists here, they might question why a person can be legally denied a job because their parents didn't send them to a private school. Unfortunately, the Australian media's code of ethics appears to prohibit this from being questioned.
Dave Carter :
07 Jun 2012 12:10:42am
An interesting post from Stephen- I think Canada seems to slip under the radar- it's a fascinatingly unique civil culture that isn't examined much in Australia. The N.Z. is an obvious close parallel for us, and the U.S. is alternately admired or hated by much of the commentariat, and the U.K. is largely only examined as a waning superpower and ignored for any further evolution it is undertaking for itself.
But I have to dismiss Stephen's last paragraph as a clunky non sequitur. The Anglican church is a mystic boy's club, and can be as anachronistic as it wants to be with it's stuffy textbook and men in dresses. Australian public health is the envy of much of the O.E.C.D., let alone the world. Public transport is pretty good for a country composed of low density linear sprawl, and anyone who is unhingeded enough to think that the public and private education sectors are not concommitant and complimentary is probably getting Scotch College mixed up with Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Stephen Coates :
13 Jun 2012 5:23:53pm
Let me clarify a few points I made that Dave Carter did not understand. Toronto has the highest patronage of its public transport network of any city in North America and its managers have been consulted by managers of Australian transport systems more than once to see what they can learn. Company cars are not provided to employees in Canada as part of a salary, only to those who genuinely need them for their work. No one looks down on those who take public transport for not having "made it".
95% of students in Canada are educated at public schools. At job interviews, candidate are not asked which secondary school they attended, but more likely what degree they have. In Australia, if the answer is a public school, it may mean the end of the interview. And while Australia's public health system has a lot going for it, public policy maintains a differential between the public and private systems. Canada's hospital system is largely a public system.

Side note: the authors of the US Declaration of Independence and Constitution ALL defined "happiness" strictly in terms of economic prosperity (Calvinist work ethic). This also originates in John Locke's construct that centered "liberty" in property rights. (The Crown had restricted property rights to oppress the lower classes.)
Arthur Young, a popular writer and economic thinker respected by John Stuart Mill, wrote in 1771: "everyone but an idiot knows that the lower classes must be kept poor, or they will never be industrious." Sir William Temple, a politician and Jonathan Swift's boss, agreed, and suggested that food be taxed as much as possible to prevent the working class from a life of "sloth and debauchery."
Also see Leonard Liggio's work on the medieval origins of representative institutions, as spread from Abbey of Cluny in France along the Camino de Santiago in northern Spain, for 500 years *prior* to Columbus' voyage. The Spanish Crown abolished the regional "Fueros" and "Cortes" that institutionalized these democratic representative insitutions in the 1800s as part of a "modernizing" effort (unifying Absolutism).
In the USA, conservatives define freedom in terms of a "strict daddy" archetype (originally medieval, mythic-conformism, prerational memes). Liberals define freedom in terms of a "nuturing mommy" archetype (modernist, achievement-meritocratic memes, or postmodern pluralism).
(A) The conservative memes in the USA come out of a southern/agrarian cultural center of gravity based in a evangelical religious ethos.
(B) Liberal memes in the USA come from a urban/industrial cultural center of gravity based on a secular ethos.
Each archetype has two variations that overlap across three meme sets:
1) prerational/premodern (religious ultra conservatives) 99% "A".
2) modernists (industrial conservatives and "establishment" liberals).
Both "A" and "B". The "industrial" conservatives ("A") in this group viciously exploit the common (religious) conservatives to advance "plutocratic", or Corporatist goals.
*** All effort should be bent to keeping the influence of these Plutocrats out of NZ, or they will ruin EVERYTHING GOOD there (as they have in the USA). ***
The "industrial" Nanny-State liberals ("B") in this group represent the accomodation of "fairness" memes to the system of Corporate State-Capitalism. They are dependent on the Industrialists to fund the "Nanny State", so do not criticize the fundamental legitimacy of Corporatist exploitation, r

Here is one "map" of culture and consciousness that has become popular amongst some of the intellectual/spiritual counterculture in the USA.
The "color" levels explain how memes map into politics and ideologies (such as the various definitions of "freedom").

The third generation of the erstwhile Dodge Viper returned from a three-year hiatus not only a "better car overall," says Cars.com reviewer Joe Wiesenfelder, but no less outrageous. Faithful to its rep, the 2013 SRT Viper boasts showy features like a forward-opening hood, 18- and 19-inch wheels in front and back, respectively, and lightweight carbon-fiber and aluminum components. Similarly impressive are interior upgrades, which in the GTS trim Wiesenfelder drove at Roebling Road Raceway in Savannah, Ga., included abundant Laguna leather that muted memories of its previous inferior interior. Check out the gallery below.

Dell 7-inch tablet
Oracle has released a highlights video of Michael Dell's keynote speech from earlier in the week at the Oracle OpenWorld.
That's great I hear you cry, but why should I care? Well because mid-way through his presentation the CEO and founder of Dell, whips out the company's new 7-inch model allowing us to see what it's like in the hand and what it looks like in use.
"It's nice to have a larger screen", comments Mr Dell as he shows off a rather boring financial presentation on the new device.
The moment, we have to say, is brief, but from what we can gather the device currently being dubbed as the "looking glass" carries the same design ethos as the Dell Streak - the company's 5-inch offering.
And yes, it will have full Android apps support.
No word on when it will be out (we suspect a CES 2011 announcement) and whether it will be just called the 7-inch Dell streak, but if you're looking for an Android alternative to the iPad or an alternative to the Samsung Galaxy Tab, this could be just the ticket.

Cute story! So glad it worked out in the end, I love how well Mac handled Veronica, made her see that Logan does love her though he didn't go about it in an upfront way. Glad they did get married & lucky for Mac there was no hoop skirt bridesmaids dress involved. Good job! I really enjoyed this.

| Nichole chapter 3 . 12/26/2012
Glad that Veronica didn't run but kind of expected her to have a plan of her own. Loved it and thanks for sharing!
| RedJane12 chapter 3 . 12/26/2012
Loved it! Esp. Mac almost telling V off... Nice to see how V cooled off after being quite angry... Poor Logan... two weeks giving V space must have made him insane... but it all paid off... I liked V's private 'vows' in the kitchen and also the special song surprise... Very romantic... Perfect for Christmas!
| missshay16 chapter 2 . 12/26/2012
Logan's logic is amazing, he winds you round that you forget your thought and believe his. I really admire they way you write it is so realistic. thanks and belated Merry Christmas and a happy new year in advance
| missshay16 chapter 1 . 12/26/2012
thank you, thank you for this it made my christmas happier considering I have to study. I took a break for this. I really love Logan's plan if I may say so. I cant wait to see it all unfold
| DevilJolie chapter 2 . 12/26/2012
Great chapter. I love that Logan has involved Mac and Wallace in his plan to win Veronica over. :)
| LoVefan1123 chapter 3 . 12/26/2012
WOW! Loved this last chapter...Loved the entire story. Veronica has really grown up and she really listened to what Mac and Wallace had to say. Great Story and thanks for a Christmas story that had a happy ending. As always love your story and hope you continue to write them.

On a night where the San Jose Sharks' top line got clicking once again, Joe Pavelski still found a way to steal the spotlight.
Pavelski scored twice -- including the tying goal 4:40 into the third period -- and registered an assist in San Jose's 4-3 win over the Detroit Red Wings Sunday night.
The effort marked Pavelski's third multi-goal consecutive game of the postseason. The feat was last achieved by Pittsburgh's Mario Lemieux in 1992. Pavelski now leads postseason goal scorers with nine, and ranks second only to the Penguins' Sidney Crosby in points with 14.
"He's such a complete player," San Jose's Joe Thornton said. "He plays hard at both ends of the rink. He competes every night. He's just in a zone, and when you get in a zone, you just have so much confidence and you feel like you can do anything."
In Game 2, the 5-foot-11 center known as "Little Joe" pretty much did everything. Pavelski led the Sharks with 11 shots and dominated in the faceoff circle, winning 13 of 16 draws.
San Jose's first line of Thornton, Patrick Marleau and Dany Heatley , meanwhile, combined for a goal and five assists.

Voices in Our Blood: America's Best on the Civil Rights Movementby Jon Meacham
Reading Group Guide
Voices in Our Blood is a literary anthology of the most important and artful interpretations of the civil rights movement, past and present. It showcases what forty of the nation's best writers — including Maya Angelou, James Baldwin, Ralph Ellison, William Faulkner, John Steinbeck, Alice Walker, Robert Penn Warren, Eudora Welty, and Richard Wright — had to say about the central domestic drama of the American Century.
Editor Jon Meacham has chosen pieces by journalists, novelists, historians, and artists, bringing together a wide range of black and white perspectives and experiences. The result is an unprecedented and powerful portrait of the movement's spirit and struggle, told through voices that resonate with passion and strength.
Maya Angelou takes us on a poignant journey back to her childhood in the Arkansas of the 1930s. On the front page of The New York Times, James Reston marks the movement's apex as he describes what it was like to watch Martin Luther King, Jr., deliver his heralded "I Have a Dream" speech in real time. Alice Walker takes up the movement's progress a decade later in her article "Choosing to Stay at Home: Ten Years After the March on Washington." And John Lewis chronicles the unimaginable courage of the ordinary African Americans who challenged the prevailing order, paid for it in blood and tears, and justly triumphed.
Voices in Our Blood is a compelling look at the movement as it actually happened, from the days leading up to World War II to the anxieties and ambiguities of this new century. The story of race in America is a never-ending one, and Voices in Our Blood tells us how we got this far—and how far we still have to go to reach the Promised Land.
1. What is the vision of black America painted by Richard Wright in "Inheritors of Slavery" and what is the vision of white America painted by Willie Morris in "North Toward Home"? And how did the themes and passions Wright and Morris identified shape the beginnings of the movement?
2. It's often thought that the North was ahead of the South on race relations. Based on the piece by James Baldwin, do you think that's true? And if not, why not?
3. Rebecca West wrote a powerful piece for The New Yorker about a lynching trial in Greenville, South Carolina, just after she had written about Nuremberg. "Lately Europe had not been really what any of us could call a peaceable community," she said. Are there parallels between Hitler's Germany and the Jim Crow South? If so, what are they?
4. When Robert Penn Warren returned to the South to talk to people about the desegregation decisions, a Southern woman he knew who lived in the North said to him, "'I feel it's all happening inside of me, every bit of it. It's all there.' I know what she meant.'" What did she mean? And how do the voices collected in Warren's long essay illustrate the conflicting forces that shaped the movement?
5. After reading Taylor Branch's portrait of King from "Parting the Waters" and "An Interview with Malcolm X," what do you think were the key issues both uniting and separating the two leaders? Were they more alike, or unlike? And do you think Louis Lomax had it right in "The Negro Revolt Against 'The Negro Leaders,'" which tries to shed light on the fissures within the movement?
6. In "Bloody Sunday," John Lewis recalls the day he was beaten on the Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, and links the images of that day to President Johnson's call for voting rights legislation. Do you agree or disagree with the proposition that the moral witness in the streets led directly to action in Washington?
7. In both Lewis's memoir and Bernard Weinraub's profile of Stokley Carmichael, the principals discuss tensions within the movement. What were those tensions? Do you think there were avoidable or at least manageable? And given the accumulated weight of the narratives about the key figures--King, Lewis, Malcolm X, Carmichael--do you think the movement was made by certain personalities or would have largely unfolded the same way no matter who stood at the pinnacle of the organizing forces? In other words, was the movement the product of personalities or more impersonal, inexorable forces?
8. Why the overarching sense of bleakness in Pat Watter's "Keep On A-walking, Children"? What in his view had produced such chaos so relatively quickly, and do you think there is an implicit prescription for ongoing social action in his essay?
9. Using David Halberstam and Tom Wolfe's reporting, weigh the interplay of social movements in those days, from race relations to Vietnam, in the North and the South. What happened to the seeming clarity of the early sixties?
10. What is the nature of the relationship between whites and blacks in Howell Raines' "Grady's Gift"? Do you think the characteristics of that relationship were more or less prevalent in those decades, and, if so, what influence do you think those forces had on the course and climax of the movement?

Ryan's Notes:I really wanted to give Vue d'Esprit's clouds a workout here. They had just come out with a new version which allowed clouds to cast shadows on each other (something which, believe it or not, wasn't possible before). This image actually started out as clouds only but I added the forest late in the process to give everything a sense of scale. This image took an absurd amount of time to render (over 10 days) so I had to wait until I purchased a new workstation in May 2011 until I could devote the rendertime needed to produce the multiscreen. I finally finished it in Sept 2011 after a staggering 1000 hour render.

If there is something which every household needs, I would say it is a good accounting software which can help them keep track of where their money goes. Most of the time people do not even think where they spend their money. They just spend and spend only to realize too late that they do not have money for the rest of the month or they do not have enough money to last them until the next payday.
There are various software touted to be the top choice of accounting software of the experts so I say do your research and get one for yourself. You do not have to be very fancy. As a matter of fact, households can even do a simple spreadsheet so that they know where their money comes from and where their money goes. If you know where you spend the most money on, you will be able to know where you can cut back.
Finances is just one of the main things which couples fight about. Most of the time one party over spends. This is a problem which can easily be solved if you have the right mindset towards money and if you know how to budget. You will be able to avoid having your home foreclosed or losing your car. Money is not the root of all evil, it is actually mishandling money.
So, take my advice and get yourself a reliable software and do not waste time.

July 30, 2012 12:28 by kippreport
Countries in the Middle East may have slowed down during the Summer time at one point or experience slower business scales during Ramadan but year after year the pace is picking up. Recruitment is still strong, hotels left, right and center reporting an increase of hotel occupancy and a boost in tourism.
In Dubai, restaurants and Cafes have been hit with a recent warning that if not complied with; will lead to fines or a temporary shut down of the premises; the new law entails that all restaurants and cafes will have to warn customers through an external sign of some sort, if they allow smoking on their premises.
This rule will be officially implemented from August and is aimed particularly at non-smokers and children who should not be forced to suffer.
Walid Abdul Malik, a senior official at the Department of Economic Development's consumer protection division, told The National: "The campaign aims to protect basic human rights, including the right to take informed decision."
Will restaurants and hotels take this badly or will they carry on as normal?
Interestingly enough, several years ago when a law that banned smoking in the malls was implemented, many businesses began to panic as they visualized their customer number sliced in half. Although in the long run, it did not appear to have an effect on their stream. "They were worried that people would stop going and it would ruin trade, but that never happened," said Abdul Malik.
Over 600,000 people die of passive smoking every year according to the director of health regulation at Dubai Health Authority. The authorities will take this matter seriously.

Dysfunctional family matters play out to some extent in all families, but for the Bowerses, the family depicted in the new NBC's drama "Deception," it's even more the case.
"The family has amassed the sort of obscene wealth that usually comes at others' expense. This features people behaving really badly and expecting to get away with it because they are so rich." So describes the main characters in the series, who also happen to dress the part.
Case in point, the stylish clutches from Dareen Hakim Collection which make an appearance in a recent episode. And no wonder, the bags are made from the finest Italian cowhides like this one, the LeIcon clutch. Designer Hakim hails originally from Beirut, Lebanon, so she instills her designs with a chic Middle-East-Meets-West aesthetic. The designs on the bag's medallion, for instance, represent "Live and Laugh." (No fooling!).
While the Bowerses may act badly, Dareen Hakim Collection brings forth only positive messages. Each bag can be customized by leather and by inscription ("Wisdom & Strength," "My Love," or "Happiness," etc.)

Alienware X51: Compact PC for gaming glory
Alienware has entered the compact desktop market with the Alienware X51. Just a fraction bigger than an Xbox 360, the new hardware packs a top end Nvidia graphics card and more than enough processor grunt to run the latest games.
Conventional small desktop units, usually designed for the living room or as a cheap family PC, usually use laptop components or lack any gaming capabilities. Alienware has used its gaming expertise to fit an easily upgradeable hardware setup into an extremely small box.
Featuring a more discreet approach to Alienware's usual over the top hardware, the X51 is more suited to those who want something stylish they can lay out in the living room, but that the kids can game on if need be. Unlike Alienware's top end desktop hardware it is also priced in differently, being a much more affordable piece of kit at around £750. This makes the PC around £150 more than regular compact desktops but the X51 can run games like Battlefield 3 smoothly at 1080p.
An Alienware spokesperson explained to Pocket-lint that "people into gaming are being restricted by the form factor of some hardware". The theory is that those who enjoy a game from time to time will like the way the X51 can sit inconspicuously in their setup. Like the PlayStation 3, the PC is also dual-orientation, being able to stand either vertically or horizontally.
Inside the X51 is a choice of Sandy Bridge processors, starting out at an i3 and going up to a i7 2600. There is either a Nvidia GeForce GT 545 or more expensive GTX 555 to manage graphics and up to 8GB of RAM. Connectivity-wise, expect built in HDMI 1.4, 4x USB 2.0 slots, 2x USB 3.0, Ethernet and a full set of speaker connectors. Alienware has also thrown in its AlienFX lighting, allowing you to re-enact a small disco in your living room.
We will have more on the X51 when we get a play with it. From the pics alone we are excited, the base model is averaging 30fps on Battlefield 3 at high settings, quite an achievement for such a small piece of kit.
See below for a few more pics of the X51 including one of it next to the Aurora, which should give you a better idea of its size.

With the exception on a behind the scenes video that was unveiled in 2010, the music video for Kanye West's 808s & Heartbreak cut "Robocop" has remained completely under wraps over the years. The Hype Williams-directed visual was reportedly scrapped after the video's star, Amber Rose, and West had broken up. Luckily for us, Shihan Barbee -- an artist who had worked on the video -- let loose some of the never-before-seen footage via his Instagram. Watch the clip above, and for more Kanye news read up on his recently released statements regarding his attack on a paparazzo.

text: SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads) So, I am going to begin shadowing this Neurologist/Sleep Doctor this week. The doctor specializes in Epilepsy and is the director of Sleep Medicine at this major University. The doctor is a DO, and I am a DO student. I have recently taken interest in sleep medicine and neurology system was my highest score as an MS-I, so maybe that could be a calling? Who knows. Anyways, any ideas on the type of Qs I should ask? I know I won't be able to touch patients, but, is there anything I could do to really impress the doctor in case I do come back on an elective and rotate and have a good shot at a good LOR and a leg-up for residency? Thanks for the help!

PreSchool-Grade 1 The original ``Spot'' book is now offered with a Signed English translation. The text and illustrations are identical to the original, with the addition of line drawings showing the American Signed English hand move ments. Signing is simply and accurately illustrated. It is easy to distinguish the placement of the hands in each sign. Dotted lines show the beginning place ment of the hands, arrows point the di rection to follow, and a solid black line indicates the final position of the hands. These drawings are placed close enough to relate each sign to the appro priate word but do not distract from the story or other illustrations. The simple story and the hide-and-seek game as pect of this book make it ideal for sign language translation, as it allows chil dren to become involved in the signing. All children will be able to learn how to sign the story. Susan Nemeth McCar thy, Arlington County Pub . Lib . , Va.

In 1976 Eric's son Christopher was born and when he was 2 years old Eric made up a story about a small puppy to read to him at bedtime. In 1980 'Where's Spot?' was published and the rest is history.
