Table of Contents
Mill was well-versed and wrote on many subjects including economics, law, maths, metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, religion and current affairs.
Mill worked for the East India Company and was financially secure. His job did not take up much time and so Mill was able to keep up a steady flow of writing. Later he was a member of Parliament for one term, although he did not affect any great change.
Mill passed away in 1873. Some claim that he was the greatest philosopher of the 19 century.
John Stuart Mill grew up with the movement of Philosophical Radicalism, made famous by Jeremy Bentham and Mill's father James Mill, which applied utilitarian principles to contemporary political issues, particularly challenging traditional institutions of class.
Mill embraces a conception of the socially constituted subject who is both disciplined and enabled by rights -- this subject is suited to democratic participation. Mill argues for a defense of rights, presuming that individuals are naturally and rightfully best off when they are unencumbered by the interferences of others because individual and social progress depends on freedom. According to Mill rights should be respected because they serve the interests of society, as they advance men and women as progressive beings. (Zivi, 2006, Cultivating Character: John Stuart Mill).
- Mill, Considerations on Representative Government, chapters 3-4, chapters 6-7, chapters 16 and 18. It may be more useful to read chapter 8 instead of chapter 7; both are on similar topics, but chapter 8 is much clearer, as I now see - xmarquez Sep 15, 2008
- Mill, "A Few Words on Non-Intervention" (pp. 476-493 in Brown et al).
- It has been supposed that absolute despotic rule, when controlled by an all-powerful, righteous individual, would be the best form of government.
- The public in this society would be blissfully ignorant. They would also not care about their country, as they are not at all involved in running it. They are all essentially slaves to this despot (despite how well he may treat them).
- The best form of government is that in which the controlling power is held by the community as a whole, with every citizen taking some part in the government.
- How far it promotes the good management of the affairs of society by means of the existing faculties of its various members?
- What is its effect in improving of deteriorating those faculties?
This best form of government may not be practical in all states of civilization.
There are also two principals with respect to human affairs:
- That the rights and interests of every or any person are only secure from being disregarded when the person interested is himself able, and habitually disposed, to stand up for them.
- The second is, that the general prosperity attains a greater height, and is more widely diffused, in proportion to the amount and variety of the personal energies enlisted in promoting it.
Chapter 4:
Are there social conditions in which representative government is inapplicable?
Three fundamental conditions for a government to permanently subsist:
- That the people should be willing to receive it.
- That they should be willing and able to do what is necessary for its preservation.
- That they should be willing and able to fulfill the duties and discharge the functions which it imposes on them.
There are two states on inclinations in people:
- the desire to exercise power over others
- the disinclination to have power exercised over themselves.
Chapter 6:
A government which does not fulfill its necessary offices is defective.
- One defect is not successfully exercising the moral, intellectual and active faculties of the people
- People who are too independent to wish to be ruled are not ready for representative government
There are two causes of the dangers of government:
- General ignorance and incapacity
- Low grade intelligence in the representative body or in the popular opinion which controls it
Being under the influence of interests not in line with the welfare of the state
- Legislation specific to a class
- Those in power will naturally hold their own immediate interests in higher importance. Unfortunately, governments must be made of men, who are corrupted by power
Chapter 7:
• A government must limit these aforementioned dangers, while preserving benefits of representative government
• Democracy is often the government of the whole people by a numerical majority
- Disenfranchises this minority.
Chapter 16:
• People constitute a Nationality if they cooperate with each other more willingly than with other people
• This feeling of identity may be caused by
- Race and descent
- Language
- Religion
- Geographical restrictions
- A collective history
• Political obstacles exist when there are nearly equal amounts of different nationalities
Chapter 18:
How should dependencies acquired by conquest of colonization be governed?
• Some dependencies are composes of similar civilizations to the ruling country, while others are very different
- Those which are similar are developed with the culture of the ruling country and are ready to be given a representative government
- It is, however, always very difficult for a country to be ruled by foreigners
- Sometimes the dominant country will do more harm to the country being ruled
A Few Words on Non-Intervention
Mill commences by extolling the virtues of England as a European power, 'far exceeding any other in wealth, and in the power that wealth bestows' and how English foreign policy is directed to non-intervention in the affairs of other nations – if only reciprocal. Action by the English Government in the international realm according to Mill, even if undertaken in the best intentions of mankind are viewed with suspicion by rival nations as though ulterior motives are at play (The example of the abolition of British Slavery is given).
Mill continues to support British policy of non-interference by government in the speculations or private citizens even if those ventures are unsuccessful. Although the initial investor may not have benefited others who followed and improved the design of such a speculation may do so.
Concerning the interference in the affairs of other states, to wage aggressive war for an idea is equal to that of a criminal – nothing but revenue. No right to force ideas on others. However, Mill expands upon this to further justify war between more or less equitably civilised nations and war waged upon Barbarians. Barbarians cannot reciprocate 'rules of ordinary international morality' and have not progressed beyond the period in civilisation and as such conquest by a foreign party is in their best interests. Jus gentium cannot also be invoked to defend Barbarians from attack as Barbarian nations cannot exist.
Sometimes a nation is impelled to act due for moral reasons. To prevent brigandage in India, England was morally bound as the conqueror had destroyed the police/military capability of the former.
Intervention can be justified according to Mill in order to preserve non-intervention however with certain conditions and if the nation is not a barbarian. If party A invades party B and party c evicts party a) is always justified. Thus intervention is used to liberate a previously free society that had already found the 'Balance of forces for the permanent maintenance of freedom'.
Study Questions
- Why does Mill think that imperial government can sometimes help another country? Under what conditions is this claim true, for Mill? Critically evaluate his arguments for benevolent imperialism.
- The summary states that Mill disagrees with the notion that 'it has been suggested that a state is best ruled by an all knowing/power righteous dictator.' But what if this all knowing and powerful benevolent dictator is there to facilitate democracy? From Mill's words on non-intervention Britain certainly appears to fit this description. If the dictator is all knowing/all powerful, and benevolent, doesn't this automatically suggests that he would be leading his people down that path? If he were righteous he would know that the best form of government is representative democracy and would strive to impart the values needed to make it work. I think something has gone wrong in that first argument, at least in terms of making distinctions where there are none. If Representative Democracy = Good, then Righteous Dictator -> Representative Democracy = Good as well. And of course the benevolent dictator, perhaps a state like Britain, is needed to bring the greater good to places like India. Of course, we don't have these benevolent all knowing dictators, rather self interested ones. What do you think Mill says to this? Doesn't he say precisely what you say? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
- Is war ever justified?
- What does Mill mean by saying that some people are "civilized" and others are not? What is the implication of this distinction for international relations?
This analysis creates an issue when comparing it with Mill's definition of barbarians. Mill believed that barbarians were people who were not ready for representative government, which in some ways was evidenced by the lack of representative institutions. Though lack of representative institutions is only one piece of evidence.
The implications that this distinction has in international relations is that it creates a different moral standard between those who are civilised and those that are not. For "civilised" countries their independence and nationality are held to be sacred, but for barbarians their 'nation' is not something that has moral authority. Do barbarians have nations, according to Mill? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. Therefore barbarians who want independence - before they are 'ready' - do not have a legitimate aim. But, he also knows that every culture is not prepared for this kind of government. For him those civilizations are barbarians. Even if they have a rich culture they are still "barbarians". They are "barbarians" because they are not prepared to receive a representative government.
"The same rules of international morality do not apply between civilized nations and between civilized nations and barbarians…The sacred duties which civilized nations owe to the independence and nationality of each other are not binding towards those to whom nationality and independence are either a certain evil or at best a questionable good."
An alternative view:
In International Relations Mill makes a distinction between "civilized" countries and "barbarians". This kind of separation is not fair because it does not count the culture of the countries It only counts the culture of the countries - what do you mean it does not? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. But, this kind of argument in Mill's time was accepted. One can see, even in modern agreements (before World War I and the Inter War period) clauses in agreements which talk about "race". A race qualification therefore was (and it could be argued still is) "normal" in Mill's time. Speaking of culture and speaking of race are very different things. Mill never speaks of "natural" inferiority (race); he speaks of cultures that are not yet ready for representative government but might be in the future - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008~
- How does Mill justify the British conquest of India? What does he assume about India in the process?
Cultural Argument:
One of Mill's major justifications for the conquest of India was the idea that rule by England served a civilizing function. This idea sits in a construct of Mill's - different morals and rules apply between civilized and uncivilized nations This runs together two different arguments of Mill - the idea that different rules of international morality apply between civilized and uncivilized nations, and the idea that Britain can serve a civilizing function in India- xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. Therefore the desire for nationalism and independence is only of value for people who were civilized. Not clear. Why, exactly, is independence only of value for civilized people? Mill gives a few reasons - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008*
"The same rules of international morality do not apply between civilized nations and between civilized nations and barbarians…The sacred duties which civilized nations owe to the independence and nationality of each other are not binding towards those to whom nationality and independence are either a certain evil or at best a questionable good." This is from A Few Words .... - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
Therefore in terms of India it is justified for England to rule against their will because India was uncivilized Not quite - there has to be a prior case. England is not justified in just conquering every less civilized people - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008; moreover, the English brought gradual improvement. Barbarism, Mill believed, is not an innate characteristic; it was a result of "history and could be remedied by history" (Eileen Sullivan: Liberalism and Imperialism). The benefits below flow from having a civilized India, therefore Mill justified interventionism.
Economic Argument:
A second justification for Mill was an argument based in economics. Mill believed that England produced a surplus of labour and capital which would become not as profitable as it could be.
"Mill maintained that if, with the large amounts of capital, population remained the same, the cost of labor or wages would rise and, hence, profits fall. If, with the large amounts of capital, population increased, there would be a greater demand for food. More inefficient land would be brought into cultivation and hence the price of food and the cost of labor or wages would rise. Again, as wages rise, profits fall." Where is this from? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
Therefore the security provided by England in India would encourage people at home to invest overseas, contributing to the growth of the colonised economy and eventually leading to cheap imports of food and materials. The colony also benefited from law and order and the investment from abroad, which would help the historical trend towards inevitable civilization.
Political Argument:
One of the last major justifications for the conquest of India was that it increased the political power and prestige of England. Mill reasoned that England was the most civilized nation on earth and truly understood liberty, therefore it should intervene more in international affairs.
"[England was]…incomparably the most conscientious of all nations... the only one whom mere scruples of conscience would... deter…[further England was] "the power which of all in existence best understands liberty." I'm not sure that this is an argument for intervention that Mill makes; only an argument perhaps for the benevolence of England's interventions - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
Mill thought that there was a need to have "a moral influence and weight in the councils of the world." This would not only advance the interests of England but also the interests of all humanity. This is not necessarily a justification for intervention- xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
Another reason for intervening is to protect the natives from private adventurers. Does this fit with any of the arguments above? this can be integrated better - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
In chapter 18 of Considerations on Representative Government Mill describes how Free States should govern their colonies ("dependencies"). He divides the dependencies into "two classes. Some are composed of people of similar civilisation to the ruling country, capable of, and ripe for, representative government: such as the British possessions in America and Australia. Others, like India, are still at a great distance from that state."
That means that colonies like Canada, Australia and New Zealand (the "colonies of European race") can establish their own government, because there, the "population is in a sufficiently advanced state to be fitted for representative government."
However, the situation in India according to Mill is different, "there are others which have not attained that state, and which, if held at all, must be governed by the dominant country." Mill is arguing that India is not ready for a representative government, and therefore the British conquest is justified and a despotic government by the British rulers in the best interest of the Indians, "There are… conditions of society in which a vigorous despotism is in itself the best mode of government for training the people in what is specifically wanting to render them capable of a higher civilisation". Mill names several reasons to justify the British rule in India but also sees the difficulties of the foreign rule: "It is always under great difficulties, and very imperfectly, that a country can be governed by foreigners. …Foreigners do not feel with the people". Ok, but some of this repeats points made above - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
- Are these assumptions plausible?
From the point of view of Mill, it seems that his proposal for justifying imperial rule in a country is only beneficial when the foreign country completely rules the barbarian society But this is because by the time intervention is justified, the imperial power has destroyed the country's government in order to protect its own interest, and so gains a responsibility to provide protection - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. From the perspective of the today's foreign policy it could be agrued that many, for the most part, agree with what Mill is saying (in terms of justification but not necessarily methodology.) In terms of Iraq, part of America's reasoning (which some consider dubious) for invading was based on the outcome i.e. Iraq would (more quickly) progress towards being a civilized culture. That assumes Iraq was not civilised in Mill's or our terms - can that assumption be justified? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. It could be contended that the US believed that the invasion and foreign rule would lead towards the establishment of a representative government. Mill's proposed assumptions seem plausible and appropriate, but it seems that he jumps to an extreme conclusion from his judgments. Mill lives in a society that is very cut and dry in terms of foreign policy between two countries. Britain needs to be either all the way in or all the way out (e.g. in terns of India). There is no balance between the two extremes. Using Mill's assumptions about a barbaric vs civilized society, a civilized country could be lead to dabble in the affairs of India or Iraq. This doesn't require the civilized countries total commitment; yet, the country is free to give advice and guidance to the barbarian society in an attempt to progress it towards a civilized, representative government.
- Is intervention ever justified by a "civilised" nation into another "civilised" nation? If so, under what conditions?
There are certain cultural conditions that apply to a justified form of intervention. Mill suggests that there are different morals and rules that apply to civilized and uncivilized nations. Not the relevant point - the question is about interventions within civilised nations - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008 He argues that the need for nationalism and independence is valuable for people who were civilised; it is a nation's interest to be "civilised".
According to Mill, representative government is the best form of government if the state is stable and capable of establishing an electoral system. He suggests that representative government is not suitable for all states, so they should have a non-representative form of government. In this case, it is possible that a "civilised state" should intervene and assist that state in establishing a better form of government where the people are law-abiding and capable of judging the moral worth of a person standing for election.The question does not ask about these sorts of interventions, but about the civilised on civilised interventions - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
- Is intervention justified in order to help a people get rid of a tyrant? If so, under what conditions?
- When is intervention not justified?
- What, in brief, are the cases in which intervention is justified? Is there a basic principle running through all of these judgments?
What follows repeats some points above, and does not consider the cases of civilised nations intervening in other civlised nations - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008First of all when Mill said something about intervention, he was in favor because the United Kingdom was in expansion Not clear - he was not always in favor of intervention by the English - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. But also he argued that intervention was good in places like Algeria or India, where British and French soldiers were fighting, because they are 'barbarians". For Mill there is no "reciprocity" with "uncivilized" people. A "civilized" country can intervene in a "barbarian" country but a "uncivilized" country cannot intervene in the affairs of a "civilized" country. Second, being in contact with British and French will be good for them because they are going to assimilate European culture. To support this argument, Mill compared the United Kingdom with Rome and its intervention in Gaul, Spain, Numidia and Dacia. Basically for him you can intervene for:
- To teach representative government to a "barbarian" country
- If there is a civil war, in an "uncivilized" country in a civlised country- xmarquez Sep 25, 2008, the intervention have to be on the side who wants to make the people free. Check A Few Words for all the cases Mill discusses, and see if you can find a principle - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
- Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of Mill's defence of the principle of non-intervention. (Taken from pols/phil 2005 exam)
- How could Mill's principles on intervention feature in the debate about American intervention in Iraq? Is Mill still relevant in a modern context?
Mill's doctrine of non-intervention only allows for prevention of intervention by another foreign force and this is not the case of America in Iraq. A good contrast would be the prevention of Russia invading Georgia.
Mill's ideas are still relevant today, even more so as the world becomes smaller through globalization. His arguments are particularly important for the topics of nationalism and humanitarian assistance. If an oppressive dictator is causing suffering and cruelty in their dominion, are other countries entitled to enter and save lives? Can they bring their ideas of democracy with them? Mill would say no, for the true path to freedom and liberty must be for the people to come to realise it themselves. There are some exceptions - look closely at what he says in a few Words - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
If you can take tyranny to be synonymous with Barbarism under JS Mills terminology, if the Americans would simply say 'Yes we are here to rule you for your own good', it could be justified They could not just simply "say" it - they would have to show that by providing for an administration of competent people with language and cultural skills, committed to the long-haul improvement of Iraq - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. America claimed to be bringing democracy to Iraq, but hasn't gone through the period of colonial rule necessary as for the British in India to impart the mental attitudes suited toward democracy. They immediately set about replicating parliamentary institutions.
You could perhaps make a case from in the 'Few words on non-intervention' on the basis of "redressing balance when it is already and violently disturbed". These situations in which a small group holds power and dominates through the use of weapons (i.e. Iraq under Saddam, Zimbabwe, Fiji, etc while not strictly 'foreign forces') can easily be seen to be disturbing the natural balance that would lead to democracy. In situations where it is impossible to gain liberty regardless of the extent of the risks, foreign intervention would not diminish its attainment. However, this reasoning may conjure an image of an Iraq where America came in, destroyed the army, and simply left. Is this Iraq not the Iraq of the first gulf war? The removal of a substantial quantity of Saddam's military power didn't cause the people to immediately rise up that time, though maybe it wasn't a thorough enough job, maybe they needed to get rid of Saddam and his government as well. Wouldn't Mill say that no intervention would be justified in that case? That they were given a chance (not a great chance) and the people weren't able to overthrown Saddam; further intervention would not be indicated - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008 The Kurdish people certainly wanted to rise up (though not for democracy), and were cracked down upon. If we can believe that there was no chance at all of the people being able to rise up in Iraq (should they have wanted to) then the intervention is justified.Not sure that Mill would agree; if there is no chance, then democracy would be unpromising even if some of the people succeeded in implementing it - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
Unfortunately for this theory, the Americans didn't leave this time Not sure what you are referring to here - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008. The likely situation would have to be a Hobbsian state of nature along nationalist ethno-religious lines anyway. How is this relevant to Mill's arguments? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008
Mill states that "intervention to enforce non-intervention is always right" and that sounds awfully simply ? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008 to the UN charter of the modern day. However while Mill's underlying concepts of non-intervention, democracy, utilitarianism, and so on are still relevant, his elaboration belongs to the colonial era of 150 years ago. It is hard to define anywhere in the world as 'barbarian' in the typical sense of the world even though there are plenty of Tyrants. Instead of barbarian, substitute "traditional," or "developing". Isn't that the same thing for Mill's arguments? - xmarquez Sep 25, 2008

Has anyone heard anything pertaining to the special parliamentary session called today with regards to the supreme court reinstatement of Sommare as PM. I know not much will happen, but curious as to the discussion that may have occured.
no one showed up , I posted on this so the link is on the MB will there be one is the question I think because the members are gone buying votes
In my neck of the woods if free food and booze would have been made available the house would have been full...It is all a matter of advertising it right...
This is from PNG Industry news today headline plus first 3 paragraphs and a link to the rest. Hope it helps...........PNG is embroiled in more political uncertainty with the Supreme Court ruling for a second time that Sir Michael Somare is the rightful prime minister, only a month before a national election.The court matters date back to early August when parliament voted in Peter O'Neill as prime minister while Somare was on extended medical leave. But the parliamentary procedures and constitutional legitimacy behind this move was questionable and on December 12 the Supreme Court ruled that Somare remained the rightful PM in a split 3:2 decision. As the O'Neill-Namah coalition dominated parliament, the court ruling was ignored. Laws were passed, including retrospective laws, to maintain this government. Speaker Jeffery Nape even briefly became an acting governor-general.http://www.pngindustrynews.net/storyview.asp?storyid=8683840§ionsource=s0
I believe it was rescheduled for today at 10:00AM that will be 5:00PM pacific time today. Nobody showed up yesterday afternoon.
The Parliament houise is blocked and will not open until after the elections.
There was no session on Tuesday as there were not enough (or no) ministers present. It's been rescheduled for Wed, so by now it will be happening if it's going to.
Per the lead story in Wednesday's Post Courier the session will be at 2PM and will be for the purpose of reaffirming O'Neill as PM. O'Neill has stated that it's time for Somare to see that he has little support in Parliament. http://www.postcourier.com.pg/20120523/wehome.htm

Cancer-related constipation

Cancer-related constipation is common and a significant detractor from patient quality of life. It has many possible causes and is still not well understood. Information is lacking on therapies for cancer-related constipation among current medications approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Most agents have only been formally tested in comparison with placebo in chronic idiopathic constipation if at all. Few comparative studies of laxatives have been performed to establish superiority or synergy. As we understand more about the physiology of the gastrointestinal tract, new targeted therapies have become available. These include a selective chloride channel activator, lubiprostone, and a selective 5HT4 serotonin receptor agonist, tegaserod, both of which have been FDA approved for chronic idiopathic constipation. The role of these agents in cancer-related constipation remains to be seen. On the horizon are two investigational peripherally acting opioid receptor antagonists, alvimopan and methylnaltrexone. Preliminary results in cancer-related constipation suggest that these agents may be important additions to our treatment repertoire.

Hi Everyone
I'm fairly new to WordPress (and the technical stuff generally!), however I have managed to follow the installation instructions. I have uploaded the WordPress files via FileZilla and connected successfully, however when I enter my domain name the usual WordPress setup page doesn't appear, just a page of ads. I have set up a MySQL database and have the information ready to go, but nowhere to enter the information. Can anyone suggest why this might be the case?
If it helps, my domain is registered with and hosted by 123-reg.
Thanks to anyone who helps!

I told my GF to vote for Ron Paul next year, she said "who"….Now im single.
love how the news is saying Ron Paul is 3rd when he has won 3 out of 4 debates and the only one he didn't win he came in second by 100 votes (and that was only due to bachmann buying votes). New debate from fox/google tonight wonder how the news will discriminate against Dr. Paul next.

I smile when I watch him talk, because Im so happy he exists.

His words ring true. He doesn't spout the same bs rhetoric. I like him.
RON PAUL is our man for President. He is so intelligent and loves his country. I thank GOD for sending this wonderful man to us every night. God Bless you, Ron Paul. He is on track of all that he said here and now we must go out and share to help him win in 2012.
Transparency!Audit the FED!Right on RON PAUL!Turn around this super congress abusing the system, with few legislators in charge(easy to sway special interests) while hundreds of our representatives twiddle their thumbs?! Thousand pages Obama bills filled with special interests our own representatives don't even have time to read?! All Obama has is image, not even that works (ie Olympics in Chicago, campaigning against Brown, etc). Obama is a liar and status quo! No more Obama!We need RON PAUL!
How can anyone disagree with a SINGLE thing that Ron Paul said?
Look up 'Dylan Ratigan on corruption'. Need more than Obama status quo/15 second talking bits! Paul's a great guy,strong family values,hard work, humor/modest warm image, but need more than Obama mere image! Paul's of substance/solutions addressing what's going on, transparency/integrity back to DC,strong background in economics/how DC works to fix it, not status quo! Not toxic asset games/kicking the can. Need Ron to put back on right track, make economy strong! RESTORE AMERICA! Go RON PAUL!!
The love revolution will probably turn into a hate revolution in another 5-10 years, if we wait for the monetary system to collapse.

Three by Atiq Rahimi: Earth and Ashes, a Thousand Rooms of Dream and Fear, the Patience Stone (Paperback)
Three short novels—including Prix Goncourt–winning The Patience Stone—that convey years of Afghan history, heartache, and hope. Never before in paperback.
Atiq Rahimi's reputation for writing war stories of immense drama and intimacy began with his first novel, Earth and Ashes, about fathers and sons and the terrible strain inflicted on families, when an Afghan village is destroyed by the Russian army.
A Thousand Rooms of Dream and Fear takes place in 1979, during a period of social and political upheaval in Kabul. On the way home from a night of drinking, a university student named Farhad is arrested and brutally beaten. A few hours later, broken and confused, he slowly regains consciousness, only to find himself in the care of a beautiful woman who has dragged him into her home to protect him.
Winner of the Prix Goncourt, The Patience Stone is the tale of a woman caring for her brain-damaged husband, who was shot in the neck during a petty conflict. After years of living in a society of islamic fundamentalism, she finds herself strangely liberated by her husband's condition. She tells him her innermost thoughts and secrets, many of them dark and deeply repressed, never knowing whether he's able to hear her or not.
About the Author
Atiq Rahimi was born in Afghanistan in 1962. He fled to France in 1984 to escape the Soviet coup, where he has made a name as a writer and filmmaker of note. He has been deeply involved in Afghan cultural life since the American invasion, particularly in the creation of a "Writer's House" in Kabul. He lives in Paris.

You don't seem to get the concept of the term "as a whole" do you?(As a whole..."An entity or system made up of interrelated parts"..."In most instances or cases; as a rule")<quoted text>
"Blacks (as a whole) have no desire to assimilate into the society in which they live, which nearly always leads to nothing positive for the blacks." So I guess Colin Powell, Herman Cain, Deneen Borelli, Condoleeza Rice, Larry Elder, Bill Cosby, the First Family, the countless black republicans, and conservatives, and democrats CLEARLY have no desire to assimilate seeing as they are in political positions and have embraced their birthright,(American citizenship), and these black folks have no desire to assimilate?? And you wonder why I call you mentally challenged, obtuse, and RETARDED. You are so obsessed with denigrating blacks that you constantly overlook what's clear as day. You make sweeping generalizations when you have NO idea what you are talking about.
How many blacks are in the United States? How many names did you give?
What is the percentage of our population that blacks make up?
What percentage of the prison population is black?
What is the percentage of the population that blacks make up in Detroit or any one of the other "25 most dangerous cities"?
In the grand scheme of things, blacks are more prone to talking like fools, acting like fools and overall adding less to our society, than the other way around!
Your continual denial to this fact, makes you a fool and not willing to "deal" with the problem, making you a party to the problem!
If you think blacks "as a whole" generally give a shitt about anything other than where their next hand out is coming, then you are crazy, blind and mentally challenged!
Speaking of mentally challenged, I see you are sensitive to words and thoughts of others quite a bit, including how you whine about honesty and frankness...yeah so sensitive and such a upstanding person, that you wouldn't take the low road, since you preach at people all the time...someone of your stature wouldn't dare make an insensitive hateful slur in order to try to take a shot at someone...would you?
Again your use of the word "RETARDED" or "RETARD" as has been pointed out to you more than once, is considered highly insensitive and bigoted to a whole group of people, and is akin to racism...funny you keep using it over and over on here.
Hmmmm, hypocrisy anyone?
You really are a one trick pony, and...so typical!

Fulda 125th
Cuperus, Cheadle win events at Tracy
Raider girls finish third in five-team meet
May 2, 2014
by Les Knutson
Sports Writer
Winning performances by juniors Sydney Cuperus in the discus (98-5) and Sariah Cheadle in the long jump (14-0), along with four places in the pole vault, helped Fulda earn third place in the team standings of the girls division at the five-team Panther Invitational high school track and field meet in Tracy last Tuesday, April 22.
Host Tracy-Milroy-Balaton won the meet, racking up 170 points. The combination of Cedar Mountain, Comfrey and Springfield was a close second with 159. Fulda tallied 101 points, while Wabasso (59) and Westbrook-Walnut Grove / Red Rock Central (47) also competed.
Among the other high individual placings for the Raiders were freshman Nicole Madison (27-10 1/4) and Cuperus (27-2) with a second and third, respectively, in the shot put, a third by eighth-grader Camryn Baumhoefner in the 200 meter dash (28.62) and a third by Madison in the 400 (1:08.45).
Sophomore Nikkie Bounsavang and freshman Alyssa Williams each cleared the pole vault bar at 6-0, placing third and fourth, respectively, while freshman Kendall Clarke and senior Myah Holinka tied for fifth, both also clearing six feet, but with more misses than Bounsavang or Williams.
Fulda placed fourth in all four relays and claimed four individual fourths, including Baumhoefner (100, 14.15), junior Madison Dibble (1600, 6:38.06), senior Jessica Schindler (discus, 78-5) and freshman Bailey Wagner (high jump, 4-4).
Senior Alli VandenBosch cleared 4-0 and placed fifth in the high jump, while individual sixths were earned by Wagner in the long jump (12-5 1/2), senior Inez Drakenberg in the 100 meter high hurdles (21.26) and by eighth-grader Allison Kenney in the shot put (26-4 1/4).
Completing the relays for the Raiders were the quartet of Cheadle, Suzanne Pagel, Courtney Tiesler and Williams in the 4x100 (:58.62), the foursome of Melissa Gehl, Cheadle, Tiesler and Courtney Zins (4x200, 2:02.46), the team of Williams, Pagel, Tiesler and Madison (4x400, 4:53.95) and the group of Gehl, VandenBosch, Dibble and Cheadle (4x800, 12:23).
The meet was scored 10-8-6-4-2-1 for the top six places in all 18 events.

Too many distractions to pray? Lectio divina can help
Article Your Faith
At my 30th class reunion, one of the lectures offered was by a young psychologist doing cognitive research. He showed us a three-minute video, and our task was to watch two basketball teams, one in white uniforms and one in black, and count the number of straight passes and the number of bounce passes made by the team in white.
He advised us to do this in complete silence to help our concentration and not disturb our neighbor. After the video was over, he said the correct answer was 12 straight passes and 2 bounce passes. Then he asked, "Did you see the gorilla?"

Another "Ferrari" Win
Too bad we win again with 4 ferrari cars on the track... Nice drive Hamilton in wet condition... Hope you can #$%$ the 1st rookie champion since 1950... Hope Mclaren get expel from the championship next year if they are found still using Ferrari's technology in their 2008 car...Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

well i dont know if you are aware but mclaren have not been found to have any of your precious ferrari parts on this years car so why would they taint next years car with anything worse than what they already have, your poor losers thats all i can say.
A Yahoo! User Oct 1, 2007 05:29 Flag
are you on planet gaga how did ferrari win please explain?????.....
Mclaren won the race (and they did n't have to use Ferrari technology) because the idiots on the pit wall now controlling the Ferrari team have n't a clue. The drivers have been/are handicapped by decisions made by Todt and Co. and the failures originating back at the factory. The history of the 'prancing horse' far outways any other GP team but they need back someone of Ross Braun's calibre to get on top again. As a Ferrari fan it has to be accepted that Mclaren won at Fuji fair and square.

I see ros could be back for next sesson, thank god atleast then they will have there brains back in the paddock.I think he should take over the running of ferrari.I dont expect them to win much next year but they will be more consistant till ross gets back into the swing of things.Micheal will be showing face more too so expect some cheating lol.
yeah!!but i was wondering what if it was hamilton who started at the back with almost zero visibility..will he be able to perform well??will he be able to do what kimi or the other drivers behind him did?it's definitely much better racing infront when the tract is obviously clear...what if he was at the back with all those water spraying on your face plus the rain....just a thought...i wasn't totally impressed by hamilton last sunday,but im more impressed by all the drivers behind him...they are the more impressive drivers for me in a rainy condition...

Separate names with a comma.
Images I've created for the Photos face for the Apple Watch: because there's no gallery on the Apple Watch forum.
In IPhoto app. On macpro wk. Sta. There is a section for "faces". is it not possible to have the "Faces" in photos on IPAD2 ?
I recently upgraded to iPhoto 11 and set up faces. When I try to sync to my iPad, the faces tab does not show up.
Can sync some " faces" okay to my ipad2 but others will not sync over to iPad2, yet they come from same storage spot? ( iPhoto)
Any ideas or hints...
...to get some of these new features. This update includes 18 new clock faces for your Nano. There are a ton of case companies making those wrist...
One of the biggest advantages that iOS has over Android is that whenever a new OS version gets released, it gets pushed quite fast to iOS...
Smiley faces
Of the buttons: Photos, Albums, Events, Faces, and Places; I'm missing Events and Faces.
Should be Photos app right next to Faces.
How are you using smiley faces on the iPad?
ichat would be cool, the photos and faces looks amazing on the ipad
How you supposed to make faces at other people from behind your phone now!?
But they die with a smile on their faces.
The snails I mean
Different line up. Surely you see some (other) familiar faces. Or at least one.
got it!
no solutions?? no ways to get events and faces without iphoto?
Have you guys seen this:
Raspberry Pi Linux distro released, but the $35 computer faces new delays
...random but has anyone noticed that if you tap on a post with smiley faces so that it goes to its own screen the smiley faces change? Weird :/...
How come I only have 3 buttons? Where's my faces, locations etc? Do I need an app? An update?
Activate the Emoji keyboard under Settings -> General -> Keyboard to get all the smiley faces and multitudes of other characters.
Seeings as how we have all become brave enough to put our real faces to our profiles, I'm in
Count the faces, analyse the expressions.
It's been warming up a little, and we've had some sun. This window faces south.
I have to admit, I don't know what faces and places are either, unless you mean like geotags?
Seems kinda silly to me. $5 for a clock with multiple faces? Might make more sense at $0.99... :P
...way of integrating Numerics and alphas together on the same keyboard. A BIG DISAPOINTMENT! Room for smiley faces and predictive text but no...
Not to mention the hit to her self esteem! ;)
But can you imagine the look on their faces when they first saw it.....Priceless!

Itsy Bitsy HD
Old MacDonald
Wheels on the Bus

You can use it connected to wifi too. The only thing you can't do is see people's faces. I guess that will come with the next generation ipad.
That's right, the movie is "The Mirror Has Two Faces". I suppose you posted the next one which should be guessed? :)
|mandamarie0929| lvl 53| Canada| |always help a friend in need|
Did they have a hit with Enter Cylon?
The Archangel
I don't have a favourite. My daughters is iswap faces and she literally rolls around laughing at the pics she makes.
And if you have a MAC its very simple, everything that you have setup in iPhoto gets transferred over to the iPad. albums, events, faces...
Noticed it as well... From the plain grin to a more excited grin...
Yeah I've noticed this in the app too!
i love your smiley faces dear bribri :D it totally warms my heart!! :D
yaaay! thank you so so much once again dear bribri!! mua~ lol
Hello mj lol x x x it's lovely to see all the faces of the voices I make up in my head to go with your posts lmao x x x

Great, thank you :)

Problems with AnswersWhat causes metal atoms to emit light when heated?
A metal atom emits light when it is heated because the electrons jump to a higher energy level. When the electrons fall back to a lower energy level, they emit wave lengths. Wave lengths correspond to a color in the emission spectrum, and that color is the color that is emited when the atom is heated.
How do you perform a flame test?
To perform a flame test, you will need a wire, usually of platinum or nichrome, a concentrated hydrochloric acid, a bunson burner and the compound that is being tested. Then you need to have safety goggles to protect your eyes. Then you clean the wire by soaking it through the hydrochloric acid and running it through the flame. After the cleaning, put the wire in the compound. After that you put the wire in the fire and watch the flame for results. Usually the flame will emmit a different color or become a deeper red/orange. The flame will usually get bigger when putting the compound in the flame.
Why are different colors emitted for different compounds?
It all depends on where the electrons are located within the atom, for each energy level allows the electrons a different amount of energy. The electrons jump to different energy levels, emitting energy. This energy is released in the form of light, in this case the colored light. Afterwards the light disperses into the air.
Why do you have to clean the wire before you use it for a flame test? And in what do you clean it in?
The wire has to be cleaned before it is used because if any chemicals remain on the wire from previous tests, the reaction of the chemical being tested will be differed. It could also be dangerous mixing two different chemicals together. The wire is cleaned in hydrochloric acid, which is a strong acid.
What kind of compunds are most common in a flame test?
The compunds that are the most common:
-Lithium Compunds ex. Fg. 15 (a lithium atom with some other atom)
-Sodium Compunds ex. Fg. 18 (a sodium atom with some other atom)
-Copper Compounds ex. Fg. 14 (a copper atom with some other atom)
-Potassium Compunds (a potassium atom with some other atom)
What is fire and how does it relate to the flame test?
You use different elements for different colors and for the flame test you do the same!

Top 10: Reasons to Hate Tiger Woods
10 Reasons To Hate Tiger WoodsThere's no "I" in team, but there's certainly one in Tiger.
While Tiger Woods is globally recognised as the best golfer of his generation, he is also one of the most selfish athletes of our time (just ask his ex-wife!). We've been fair to the guy and given our writer Malcolm MacMillan the opportunity to outline the Top 10 reasons to love Tiger Woods, but now it's time to apply some critical thinking.
In 2009, Tiger became the first sports athlete to pass $1 billion in earnings (add that to the list of reasons to hate Tiger Woods), shortly before it came to light that he was a compulsive womaniser and philanderer. Since then, the divide between him and his followers has grown.
Let that divide grow even bigger as you read on through the top 10 reasons to hate Tiger Woods.

Holy shit.
Your point? Lacey and Larkin are notorious blowhards, Lacey in particular is an insensitive jackass (ask the family of Don Bolles - oh, you're not familar with investigative journalism, are you?) I suspect you wanted this to be some sort of blowback on the Seattle Weekly. Nice try.
@2 Read the article. Look at what was being subpoenaed. It's a bald-faced violation of the rights of readers as well as a fairly appalling abuse of power. The fact that these things are being done "notorious blowhards" doesn't make them any less fucked up.
@2 Do you really want to get started with Don Bolles? I have known the Dunlap family my entire life and if ever there was a man that was rail roaded over that "investigative" reporter it was Max Dunlap. Lacey and Larkin aren't blowhards they just aren't patsies in the pocket of the Quayle family.
Yeah, this is a little creepy:
"The subpoena asks for information not only about the newspapers reporting, but also the information on readers who may have seen material deemed confidential published on the newspapers website, including the internet domain names and browsers used, and any other information about online readers of the publication since Jan. 1, 2004."
Sheriff Joe Arpaio is about as big a scumball as they come. He likes to send his deputies out on round ups of illegal aliens with hand offs to I.C.E. who incidentally do not want his assistance. One of his older (at least thirty years now) past times is to round up the homeless around Phoenix and put them down in Tent City (a barbed wire enclosed complex) until he can get them put on to Greyhound buses to other cities. He's a real piece of work. I personally think it's great that Lacey and Larkin published Arpaio's home address as there are bound to be countless Phoenicians who would like to send the sheriff Christmas cards and such.
Sucks to be in Phoenix, doesn't it, Lacey?
While I doubt Lacey will ever go to jail, I wonder if he did, he'd end up in that boot camp prison that Phoenix is famous for?
"... where arrested at their homes ..."
Um, don't you mean were?
At least it wasn't Texas. They'd be on death row right now with fake DNA evidence.
Also arrested this week: members of the Orlando Weekly's ad department for printing escort ads. Here's the story.
A bad day to work at a weekly.
There was a story recently about Arpaio's swat team amateurishly and maliciously destroying a house based on false evidence, including laughing at the occupants of the house as they forced thier dog back inside the burning building to die. Below is a link to the story, called "Breathtaking Abuse of the Constitution", that got them arrested - it's a good read. It points out that Arpaio is famous for making his inmates wear pink underwear, work on chain gangs, and eat rotten meat. There is also a history of many inmates with any kind of disability dying in his jails, which have been the subject of the only Amnesty International investigation inside the United States. The article also goes into great detail on the prosecutor and politicians who are part of his posse, their martyr complexes and the ethical breaches they regularly get away with, including this subpoena and these arrests.
Is sheriff an elective office in Arizona? If so, what kind of assholes do they have living in his district that keep re-electing him? Where are the Duke boys? They could put a stop to this in no time.
Just FYI, all charges were dropped hours ago and the prosecutor was fired. Village Voice media is still thriving, and the Seattle Weekly is still in business.

I am keeping a close eye on the start time of my app in development. In
main I store the start time using
CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent() and log elapsed time when
didFinishLaunchingWithOptions gets called, as well as during the initialization and painting of my
StopWatchView and finally in the
viewDidAppear of the main view controller. This served me very well in figuring out where my start time goes and keeping it in check. My startup performance tests on actual devices were done on iPhone 3G (iOS 4.2.1) and iPhone 4.
Since upgrading the device to iOS 5.1 I was forced to upgrade the Xcode to the version 4.3.1, too. I have immediately noticed that the start times on iPhone 4 changed dramatically. All measurements were performed with Xcode attached for debugging, reading the elapsed times from logs in console. Now I've also added debugging label that displays elapsed time to be able to measure without debugger attached.
To eliminate the possibility that the change was caused by something in my code, I've created new Utility Application and confirmed the slowdown. The iPhone 4 used to be ~3x faster than iPhone 3G, now it starts slower(!!!) than 3G. The startup time has also become highly volatile (+- 0.3s), where it used to be +-0.05s. The volatility disappears in Airplane Mode, so I suspect it's caused by some background process related to iCloud. However I'm very puzzled by 3x slower startup time on iPhone 4 before and after the upgrade.
Here are the average startup times, first during debugging in Xcode (then without Xcode):
Debug No-debug
iPhone 3G: 1.23s (0.67s)
iPhone 4: 0.43s (-----) [iOS 5.0.1, Xcode 4.3]
iPhone 4: 1.53s (1.18s) [iOS 5.1, Xcode 4.3.1]
iPad 2: 0.41s (0.22s) [iOS 5.1, Xcode 4.3.1]
I don't know if this is caused by iOS 5.1 or Xcode 4.3.1 or if this is iPhone 4 specific problem. Does anybody see similar slowdown?

I just took my five question quiz in IE and got the lowest ranking after answering all five questions correctly. Weird. I can't even remember the last time I used IE to be honest. I tried it because a friend also got strange results using Internet Explorer. (IE8)
When the CORRECT answer is selected in IE and check answer is selected the INCORRECT answer text is displayed. Duplicated on two two different PC's using IE8.
IE does not appear to understand the code used in the theme or the plugin. Reminds me of the days when as a software producer our beta teams had to test everything in every major browser. I thought we were long past that. Rats.

The Heroes that Were Pigeons
Finch Information ... Index of Finch Species
Euphonias are members of the finch family. Previously, they were considered to be part of the tanager family, Thraupidae.
Most euphonias are dark metallic blue above and bright yellow below. Many have contrasting pale forehead and white undertails. Some have light blue patches on the head and/or orangish underparts.
The Yellow-throated Euphonia or Violaceous Euphonia have a yellowish underside and lack the dark throat of the other Euphonias.
Diet / Feeding
Their diet consists of a variety of tree-borne fruits. In particular, euphonias are considered mistletoe specialists; however, the degree of mistletoe specialization varies between the subspecies. For example, the Blue-hooded Euphonia feeds nearly exclusively on mistletoes, which make up about 80% of its diet. While others, such as the Yellow-crowned Euphonia, with some species from 20 - 80%; with the diet of some species being 80% mistletoe berries, while the Yellow-throated Euphonia's diet is only made by 20% of mistletoe berries. Antillean Euphonias, Golden-rumped Euphonias, Thick-billed Euphonias and Scrub Euphonias are also known to extensively feed on mistletoe berries. The Euphonia gut is specially adapted for mistletoe berries, which are poisonous.
Euphonias defecate sticky mistletoe seeds that cling to tree branches, thus facilitating the dispersal of the parasitic mistletoe plant to different trees.These finches tend to move to places where mistletoe berries are the most abundant.
Some species also feed on nectar and insects.
They are most commonly seen in small groups foraging in their favored feeding areas.
Breeding / Nesting
They construct domed fiber or moss nests, with a side entrance that hang in vegetation and bromeliads or are placed into tree crevices or mossy banks. Both parents feed and raise their young.
Euphonias are known for their almost constant singing. Their best known calls sound like "Pe-we," :dee,dee, dee," "see-see," "ti ti ti ti" and "beem-beem" - which gave the Yellow-crowned Euphonias the local name "Bim-Bim."

Why Are There Serial Defaulters? Evidence from Constitutions
Presidential democracies were 4.9 times more likely than parliamentary democracies to default on external debts between 1976 and 2000. In this article I argue that the explanation for the serial defaults by a number of sovereign borrowers lies in their constitutions. Ceteris paribus, parliamentary democracies are less likely than presidential democracies to default on their liabilities because the confidence requirement creates a credible link between economic policies and the executive's political survival. This link tends to strengthen the repayment commitment when politicians are opportunistic. I show that this effect is large in the contemporary world even when the comparison is restricted to countries that are similar in terms of colonial origin, geography, and economic variables. Since a country's form of government is typically chosen at the time of independence and is highly persistent over time, constitutions can explain why debt policies in developing countries are related to individual histories.

Is Scott Disick Kourtney Kardashian's Baby Daddy? (PHOTOS)sweatpantsmom
Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant! But the first question on everyone's mind is – 'Is Scott Disick the father?' The second question would be, "Who the hell is Scott Disick?' See more pictures after the jump.
Well, according to that credible source of information known as the internet, Disick is Kourtney's ex-fiancé, and look – he has his own web page, ScottDisick.com! But something tells me Scott didn't write the copy himself. Here's what it says:
Scott grew up in Eastport, Long Island, NY. He attended a private school in East Hampton, New York called The Ross School, which is the only private K-12 school in the Hamptons.
His parents had money inherited from their parents, but like so many they spent it all and word is their house was foreclosed on by the lender.
As for girls, he was known as being able to manipulate them into anything. He was scrawny but good at snow boarding and roller skating.
He had a half pipe in his backyard as well.
Who writes about their family's home being foreclosed on their website, or admits to manipulating women? And then writes about being 'scrawny but good at snow boarding?' Does this make you feel you know Scott Disick any better? Would you like to?
So many questions, so few answers.

Summary | Excerpt | Reading Guide | Reviews | Beyond the book | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
Khaled Hosseini's gorgeous new novel begins with a father telling his two children a heartbreaking Persian fable: A father must choose one of his five children to give to a malevolent demon or have all five taken from him. With its themes of sacrifice and betrayal, this fable sets the tone for the rest of the narrative.
And The Mountains Echoed spills over with unforgettable, fully realized characters whose stories are woven together into a tapestry, a stunning portrait of family dynamics. Threads of longing, envy, guilt, and betrayal twist together to form the warp of the tapestry with devotion, loyalty, and innocence forming the weft. These are the things that can cleave a family apart or bind it together. Taking place over a period of sixty-one years (from 1949 to 2010), and spanning many generations, some of the stories not all overlap the others.

I went to a department store to sample this perfume and WOW!! It smells good. but, of course...... the problem with this perfume as well as Beyonce's other perfumes, is that they do not last long enough. I sprayed it on myself a few times and fifteen minutes later, I got to the house to ask my boyfriend how it smelled, and he says, "I can't smell anything."
My wife loves the stuff
i was excited about buying this until i tried it on and realized that it doesn't last long.
Smell very good
I was shopping at Target and they had sample perfume. And tried it, and I loved it for the first whip of the fragrance. I promised my mom I would try everything to buy it. I love it smells so great, plus I love Beyonce as a music artist and actress.
Loved the way it smelled, the bottle it was packaged in was very beautiful, I love the scent and will probably buy it again.
