Defeat and Its Consequences
Half a century ago, few people believed that a modern army could suffer defeat at the hands of non-Western guerrillas, however well trained and equipped. But on May 7, 1954, a beleaguered French force shocked the world when it surrendered to the communist Vietminh in the jungle highlands of northwestern Vietnam. The capitulation marked a turning point in the Cold War and forever changed the way that such small proxy wars would be fought and, indeed, understood.
For eight weeks, news reports had breathlessly described the fate of the French soldiers at Dien Bien Phu (which translates unromantically as "big frontier administrative center"). Low on food, ammunition and medical supplies, they struggled to fight off wave after wave of Gen. Vo Nguyen Giap's communist battalions but found themselves outgunned and outmanned.
Pleas for sufficient reinforcements were ignored as bickering French generals withheld materiel for their own operations. But Dien Bien Phu was not a sideshow. It was the climactic struggle of the French Indochina War. With its fall, France relinquished the dream of reclaiming its lost colonies -- and burying the shame of 1940-44. A few months later, a Geneva conference handed the northern half of Vietnam over to Ho Chi Minh. Within two years, all French troops would leave Indochina and the process of dismantling an empire would begin, first in Morocco and Tunisia and later in Algeria. As for South Vietnam, the burden of protecting it passed to the U.S.
Yet the French came remarkably close to winning at Dien Bien Phu, where their victory might have altered the course of 20th-century history by thwarting the hopes of communist insurgencies world-wide. It is one of the singular achievements of "The Last Valley" (Da Capo, 734 pages, $30), Martin Windrow's meticulous and masterly narrative, to explain not only why things occurred but how they might have turned out differently.
We learn how the plodding yet relentless Gen. Giap tightened his noose around the French by ordering his troops to dig trenches to within yards of enemy positions. Thousands more dragged heavy artillery pieces and other supplies hundreds of miles through dense jungle -- undetected by the French, who assumed that such logistic feats were beyond the ability of their indigenous adversaries. Indeed, the plentiful Vietminh artillery -- cleverly hidden in caves dug into the forward slopes of cliffs -- did more to turn the tide than any single factor.
We also learn of a last-minute French plan to ask the U.S. Air Force to carpet-bomb Vietminh positions with B-29s. Although some in the American high command gave the idea a high probability of success, President Eisenhower rejected it as merely delaying the inevitable. Most congressional leaders -- led by Senate Minority Leader Lyndon Johnson -- agreed with the president, although Vice President Richard Nixon did not.
Mr. Windrow argues that the siege of Dien Bien Phu -- like most battles -- was ultimately decided by the clash of small formations led by combat officers rather than by a grand strategy made in Hanoi or Paris. To this end, we are introduced to some of its more memorable participants, like paratrooper commander Lt. Col. Pierre Langlais, the fearless brawler who possibly instigated a putsch that took effective control of the French camp from its ill-fated commander early in the fighting. (Mr. Windrow casts some doubt on Bernard Fall's account of the incident in "Hell in a Very Small Place" [1966].) By contrast, the one-armed artillery chief Col. Charles Piroth, upon realizing that he could not deliver on his promise to destroy the Vietminh artillery, pulled the pin of a grenade and held it to his chest. French troops learned of his suicide only when they read about it in a copy of Le Monde that was air-dropped along with some supplies.
Interestingly, only about 20% of the defenders of Dien Bien Phu were actually French. The rest were mainly colonial troops: Vietnamese, Algerian, Moroccan, West African and Thai. Of the Foreign Legion soldiers present, as many as half were German (many of their senior NCOs were Wehrmacht veterans recruited from prisoner-of-war camps after World War II).
Although it is easy to become confused by the tangle of individual units as they pass in and out of Mr. Windrow's gaze, "The Last Valley" succeeds marvelously in re-creating the heat of battle. There are graphic primers on the effects of artillery bursts on human anatomy as well as the challenges and horrors of modern field medicine. Dr. Paul Grauwin, the camp's chief surgeon, was forced to care for hundreds of severely wounded soldiers in steaming, rat-infested tunnels that were frequently flooded to the waist.
However much the battle of Dien Bien Phu was a test of courage, its results should properly be measured in tragedy. In all, 3,600 French and as many as 10,000 Vietminh soldiers died in the conflict. Of the roughly 9,000 troops who surrendered to Gen. Giap, only about half ever returned to France -- and many of those resembled survivors of Buchenwald after months of torture and mistreatment.
Almost as shameful was France's political decision to cut and run so precipitously, resulting in the abandonment of many of its own troops and countless Vietnamese allies in the depths of the jungle. A full two years after the battle, it is reported that a plane flying along the frontier picked up the plaintive cries of a French officer cursing and pleading for ammunition so that he and his men could die an honorable death.

Michele Bachmann, other Republican candidates won't say the word "Minnesota"
Michele Bachmann won't talk about us. Is it something we said?
Michele Bachmann will never forget where she came from. Wait, she's from Iowa, right?
A new analysis of the last handful of Republican debates shows that certain states keep coming up as a topic of conversation. Among the nine major Republican presidential candidates, each has proper name-dropped at least one individual state during their time on the mic.
In fact, some candidates can't stop talking about states. Rick Perry, for example, has trouble uttering words that are not "state," "of," or "Texas."
Sadly, Minnesota is not one of the states that they're talking about. At all. Not once.
Not even Michele Bachmann, who, back in 2009, used to be a congresswoman from here, and has since relocated to pretty much everywhere else.
The exhausitve analysis, as performed by Smart Politics researcher Eric Ostermeier, finds that 16 different states have come up during debates. Minnesota didn't make the cut, a rather stark reality considering some of the states that did: Indiana (mentioned two times), New Mexico (twice), Iowa (once) and Michigan, which was mentioned one time by gay sex pundit Rick Santorum.
That lone Iowa mention came, as you could guess, from Michele Bachmann, who was sort of from there once and seems to have reunited with the land of her origin.
The red spot on this map indicates the unpronounceable state.
Ostermeier's research, which began after Tim Pawlenty slinked out of the race and Rick Perry swashbuckled into it, finds a rather predictable common thread for references to individual states. In short, people like to talk about where they're from. Six candidates have talked, some more than others -- some a lot more than you'd think possible -- about the state they've represented politically.
Only three candidates are avoiding any discussion of where they're from. Newt Gingrich and Herman Cain, both Georgians, have failed to mention their home state, which might say just as much about Georgia as it does about Gingrich and Cain.
Joining them in regional shame is Michele Bachmann, who hasn't talked about It-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named for even a moment. She has mentioned Iowa one time, Arizona three times -- likely congratulating that state on its immigration warzone -- and Texas four times, in which she attacked Rick Perry's controversial anti-cancer stance.
In talking about Texas, Bachmann joins the rest of the candidates, who apparently cannot shut up about that state. Eight of the nine candidates have mentioned Texas at least once, and no-hoper Gary Johnson's exception is likely due to the fact that he's been asked not to speak directly into the microphone.
The leader in the clubhouse by a longshot is Rick Perry, who has said the word "Texas" an astonishing 83 times over just five debates. Quoting a typical Perry thought, Ostermeier catches the governor using the phrase, "state of Texas" three times -- in a single sentence.
Reached for comment about the study, Perry said, "Texas Texas, Texas state of Texas -- I mean, Texas, right?"
That Minnesota didn't make the list might mean that Barack Obama's 10-point margin over John McCain in 2008 makes Republicans think we're dead to them.
Well, fine. From now on, maybe we Minnesotans should give them a taste of their own medicine, and begin talking about what the guy from Massachusetts said about the one from Texas, and how the Iowa lady won't take our phone calls.

text: In experiments at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory, a plasma of hydrogen atoms is heated to over 500 million degrees Celsius (about 25 times hotter than the center of the Sun) and confined for tens of milliseconds by powerful magnetic fields (100,000 times greater than the Earth's magnetic field). For each experimental run, a huge amount of energy is required over a fraction of a second, which translates into a power requirement that would cause a blackout if electricity from the normal grid were to be used to power the experiment. Instead, kinetic energy is stored in a colossal flywheel, which is a spinning solid cylinder with a radius of 3.00 m and mass of 1.18 · 106 kg. Electrical energy from the power grid starts the flywheel spinning, and it takes 10.0 min to reach an angular speed of 1.95 rad/s. Once the flywheel reaches this angular speed, all of its energy can be drawn off very quickly to power an experimental run. What is the mechanical energy stored in the flywheel when it spins at 1.95 rad/s? What is the average torque required to accelerate the flywheel from rest to 1.95 rad/s in 10.0 min?

Ban Ki-moon climate deputy says Copenhagen deal may take two stage approach; Outline of bipartisan Kerry, Lieberman, Graham proposal likely beforehand
The top climate lieutenant to U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said Thursday that a major — though perhaps preliminary — international agreement to curb global warming is still possible in Copenhagen. One leading option is to set low targets for emissions reductions initially and to boost them if global warming gets worse.
Janos Pasztor, director of the climate change support team under Ban, told reporters that the Copenhagen global warming conference could yield a breakthrough on greenhouse gas reduction targets and financial aid to poor countries. A binding agreement would be written in 2010, he said….
Ban visited Washington last week to meet with Obama officials and with senators, and said he was optimistic about the chances for a bill to pass the Senate sometime next year. Two of the three senators working to build a bipartisan coalition for the legislation — John Kerry, D-Mass. and Joe Lieberman, I-Conn. — said after the meeting they would try to release an outline of their proposal before the Copenhagen conference.
That's the news today from The Washington Times Washington Insight/Energy (sub. req'd).
It is no surprise to CP readers that "administration officials have stressed that it will not agree to a global treaty that cannot win approval in the Senate." For a related story, see the WashPost's "U.S. weighs backing interim international climate agreement." And this is similar to the "Statement by Prime Minister Lars L¸kke Rasmussen at the GLOBE Copenhagen Legislators Forum on 24 October 2009," which I'll excerpt below.
First, more from the Insight story:
A potential agreement could set modest requirements in the early years, he said, but mandate more aggressive actions if the planet gets warmer faster than expected. "It's extremely important to get this system going, in all countries, even if the immediate numbers, the mitigation targets are not as high as you'd like them to be," Pasztor said. "We just have to find a way to ratchet those numbers up later, to respond to what science tells us."
"The fact that we cannot come to a conclusion on the legally binding treaty at Copenhagen doesn't mean we are lowering the bar, that we're lowering our ambition. It's actually the opposite," he added. "It's actually the time to increase the level of ambition as much as possible, to get the best deal we can possibly get."
He said countries can still agree on emissions targets, mitigation aid to poor nations and reporting requirements, while leaving leaving the details for later. "It is possible and we expect that it will be done," Pasztor said.
Pasztor's comments were more optimistic than the consensus of many observers. Despite extensive negotiations over the last two years, disagreements have persisted among nations over the level and pace of greenhouse gas reductions needed to halt global warming at an additional 2 degrees Celsius, a level that environmental scientist say will head off massive climate changes.
Here are excerpts from the recent speech by the Danish Prime Minister:
I suggest that we lock in the determination to act already by Copenhagen and seek political commitments for immediate implementation.
I believe that all the key components of the deal can be achieved in Copenhagen.
In order to achieve this, the Copenhagen Agreement should be ambitious; it should binding and it should be concrete.
It should build on the principles established by the existing legal framework, most notably the principle of a common but differentiated responsibility.
It should capture and encourage the contributions individual countries are willing to undertake within all areas of the Bali Road Map, including specific and binding commitments on mitigation and finance. In the context of immediate action, significant up front finance for both early mitigation and adaptation efforts of the poorest and most vulnerable countries will be of particular importance.
In order to ensure transparency and that the individual countries are standing behind their commitments and deliver on their promises, we shall also need a system of measurement, reporting and verification.
This is the agreement we must reach. It will both provide guidance for our lawyers to finalize the details of the internationally legal binding agreement and for world leaders to commit to specific immediate action, starting January 2010.
In this way, Copenhagen could provide for immediate action based on a comprehensive set of binding, political commitments from world leaders.
The Copenhagen Agreement would thus serve two purposes:
- to direct further negotiations towards concluding outstanding details in a new legal climate regime;
- to capture and encourage political commitment in order to provide for immediate action to combat global warming.
Political commitment to immediate action will also serve to focus and strengthen the negotiations on the legal agreement. It is important that these two purposes will merge in one decision at COP15.
The devil, as always, will be in those "outstanding details." Stay tuned.

more in the same vein:
MANILA, Philippines – Next month's climate change summit in Copenhagen is not likely to produce a legally binding treaty to cut the greenhouse gas emissions that are widely blamed for global warming, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Friday.
Speaking to a town hall meeting of students at a university in the Philippine capital, Clinton said the Obama administration would push instead for a strong "framework agreement" that could become a template for an eventual enforceable pact.
"We are going to go to Copenhagen 100-percent committed to creating a framework agreement," she said. "We doubt that we can get to the legally binding agreement that everyone wants because too many countries have too many questions."
A modest proposal: Given that the United States Military budget is a taste over 600 billion dollars a year, not counting black box projects I presume, and that the Pentagon is increasingly concerned about the effects of global climatic disruption on National Security, I purpose the following. PLAN B 4.0 estimates the annual costs of "Plan B" to be $187 billion per year. (Currently the world military budget is at ~$1,464 billion per year.) That the United States foot the entire first years coverage to instigate "Plan B" out of the military budget, (~ 10% of total, ~25% personal), and the following years the rest of the world pick up the tab out of their military budgets and pay back the United States investment in proportion to their budget plus interest if you like.
I would contend that the effects of instigating "Plan B' would defuse hostilities enough the first year that savings would pay for themselves there after.
"A potential agreement could set modest requirements in the early years, he said, but mandate more aggressive actions if the planet gets warmer faster than expected. … 'We just have to find a way to ratchet those numbers up later, to respond to what science tells us.'" What the "science tells us" now is that "even if industrialized and developed countries enact every climate policy they have proposed at this point" global temperatures are likely to rise to a level "nearly double what scientists and world policymakers have identified as the upper limit of warming the world can afford in order to avert catastrophic climate change". Pasztor's proposal to "set modest requirements in the early years" is basically a policy of procrastination and denial.
What Pasztor really seems to be saying is that we simply don't know how to effectively regulate greenhouse gas emissions. Everything we are now doing is based on a cap-and-trade regulatory paradigm, which is supposed to provide "environmental certainty," while its regulatory mechanisms actually operate to cap emission reductions at an unsustainable level. Carbon-tax proposals, on the other hand, seem to be more focused on "making polluters pay (me)" than making polluters stop polluting. Economists have failed to provide any rational and pragmatic alternative to kind of rigid, unyielding dogmatism that underlies the current regulatory regime.
Today's Politico: http://www.politico.com/news/stories/1109/29471.html
"White House has not dropped plans for an aggressive global warming bill early next year that will be loaded with new spending on green technology and jobs – that would be paid for with tax increases. Democratic lobbyist Steve Elmendorf says the White House focus on deficit reduction could easily kill the cap-and-trade effort. "I think this means cap-and-trade has to go to the backburner," he said."
Leif, we definitely see eye to eye on this, while the Senate slowly but surely grinds out a clean energy bill, Obama should totally withdraw from Afghanistan and cut the Military Budget to bare bones minimum. Just imagine if the military industrial complex was working towards building solar panels, windmills, forests, and de-salinization plants, imagine what our country could achieve in terms of reduction.
Raleigh Latham, #5: Agreed, and if the United States were shipping that technology around the world to the destitute regions along with sex ed, condoms, schools, farm tech, basic health care, in short "PLAN B 4.0" our international image would quickly change from "exploiter of world's resources" to one that would be far less likely to be attacked by terrorist. In turn freeing up boo-cu bucks in turn for more good causes.
Give peace a chance…
This was fairly obviously coming. Take a look at questions from the Global Climate Change Decision Makers survey that is being circulated at Rabett Run and figure where you fit in the continuum

A book I like to teach
As I was in the midst of teaching the ancient Roman Stoic Epictetus at Oakdale Prison, an inmate stood up and launched into an argument that Stoicism is a loser's philosophy. I challenged him: "What does it mean to be a loser? Was Jesus on the cross a loser?
President Obama's speech in Newtown on December 17 included this pivotal question: "Are we prepared to say that such violence visited on our children year after year after year is somehow the price of our freedom?" The president is bristling here at the way our political discourse reflexively leaps to claims about individual rights and freedoms.
Every pastor needs to
address the issue of freedom and accountability. It's part of the pastor's role
in nurturing a church community: neither a laissez-faire atmosphere nor a
judicial one helps people grow as disciples.
Matthew 25:1–13
God grants astonishing freedom to creatures who bear the imago dei. The Arab Spring is only the latest evidence of the human desire for freedom. What's more, and far more awkward in a culture of autonomous freedom like ours, is that the God who gives us freedom also holds us accountable for what we do with this gift.
Franzen has turned his considerable novelistic talents to a kind of inquisitorial examination of the American ideal of freedom. He shows how freedom is negatively construed—focused on what we are free from and not on what freedom might be for, what worthy ends it might be used to pursue.
Christian Faith Today in Conversation with the Heidelberg Catechism
When the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, Leonard Bernstein was there to celebrate with Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. The great chorus did not voice the familiar "Freude, Freude" ("joy, joy") but instead sang "Freiheit, Freiheit" ("freedom, freedom"). That simple, direct, unambiguous moment, however, is not the norm for thinking about freedom.
It may seem odd that at the beginning of the 21st century our lives are so pervasively dominated by rules, big rules and small rules, rules that frame our interactions and rules that enter into the fine fabric of our personal lives.
James 3:1-12; Mark 8:27-38
When I was a kid, my brother and I loved playing with toy dinosaurs. I'd let my brother take the ever-popular T. Rex while I went for the stegosaurus. Its back plates and tail spikes were cool, but it was this dinosaur's second brain that put it over the top for me. I think I intuited at an early age that two brains are a good idea in the scheme of things.
Galatians 5:1-26
Americans celebrate freedom as a national right and immortalize its twin sister liberty in the glorious statue that many of our ancestors saw as they came to this country. For me, the great-great grandson of enslaved Africans, freedom is a cherished gift long withheld from those in my familial lineage.

Hi, I'm running a wordpress websise for a movie catalog to keep track of upcoming movies and the ones that I'm going to watch/already watched.
There are several custom fields, that I want movies to be sorted by, namely date of original release, release in estonia and seen (yes/no). I also want them to be sorted by title on 'all movies' page, but taking into account definite/indefinite articles (a, an, the). I want the code to be as much 'wordpress native' as possible and compact to avoid clutter and inconsistence on different page templates.
So, I would like to have these pages:
- index page with 2 queries - the first one retrieves, say, 12 upcoming movies (wordwide release date and estonian release date > current date, sorted by release date) and the second one retrieves 24 unwatched movies (seen = no, release dates > current date, random sorting), no pagination required
- 2 separate pages, that retrieve 2 lists described above with pagination and sorting by title (with articles kept in mind)
- page that lists all movies that are currently shown in cinemas in estonia (release in estonia = current date + 2 weeks)
- page with all the movies listed with pagination, sorted by title with articles
- page with all movies that I have seen, paginated, sorted by title with articles
I have 2 options that I might use, but neither fully satisfies my needs.
1) query_posts();
this allows me to paginate results and reduces the overall code amount, but I'm not able to use 2 or more custom fields for filtering and proper ordering by movie title
2) using normal MySQL query and
$wpdb->get_results($querystr, OBJECT);
this gives me freedom for multiple custom fields filtering ang allows proper title ordering but I'm not able to paginate results.
Can anyone please help me out with that? Sorry for the long post and possibly unclear explanation, please ask for clarification.

Yay! You're back! What happened to you man? Missed you, or maybes it's just cause I've been off Newgrounds a while, another great Zelda remix, I honestly missed your Music. The beat's nice and well done. Felt it wasn't a proper song of yours though due to those Bells. Those bells in my bloomin' head. From your Australian StickyStickboy, my day's been made.

Whether it's the feel or the sound, the dynamic TG V70d live vocal microphone with a hypercardioid polar pattern is sure to impress both on the stage and behind the mixing console – for the singer, the audience and the rental company. The reasons: the powerful, extremely well resolved sound, the excellent feedback reduction and a marked proximity effect with saturated bass to support less powerful voices. Even without help from the tone control of the mixing console, it delivers an impressively rounded and exceptionally powerful sound. In other words: you only have to plug it in and activate the high-pass filter and you're done. Additional to its great looks, its handling and well-thought-out housing construction with a progressively damped capsule suspension for low handling noises will make it the standard for stage professionals. Available with or without switch. Sound Channeling Technology:

Considering Aaron Taylor-Johnson still isn't confirmed to play Quicksilver in Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron, the guy sure knows a lot about the silver-haired speedster.
"There's years — over 50 years — of backstory on him all there to use, and I like doing that," the Kick-Ass star tells Total Film. "Him and his sister [the Scarlet Witch] have been abandoned by their parents and their father, and they grew up in Eastern Europe defending and looking out for themselves and each other. His sister really is his guidance — emotionally she's the one who looks after him, and vice versa. He's very overprotective physically — he doesn't want anyone touching her."
Taylor-Johnson's comments sure make it sound like he's ready to commit to Joss Whedon's sequel. Even the actor admits that he and marvel are "in talks," going so far as to detail some of those points of discussion.
"That's what we're in talks about really, right now — how I could become that character and not feel forced," he said. "I might not look right with white hair, and the accent may be wrong … it just doesn't work like that. It's about — unless you're Jim Carrey or Nic Cage and go, 'This is the character,' people go 'OK, OK …' When people haven't been shown your range like that, then they're a bit more skeptical — they may not want you to push the boundaries in that way. But that's what I'm interested in as an actor."
(via ComicBookMovie)
He didn't detail any points of a negotiation.
My thoughts exactly
I think he means over 49 years, not 50.
Yah, what an ass he is for rounding up.
The first time I read it, I thought this part meant they were negotiating: ""That's what we're in talks about really, right now — how I could become that character and not feel forced," he said. "I might not look right with white hair, and the accent may be wrong … it just doesn't work like that."
Then after reading it again I realized he was saying those _weren't_ talking points. Maybe there was some confusion.
