Health Care in a Big Box
Medical clinics are opening in stores like Target all over the country. Are these one-stop shops a boon or bane to the health care industry?
By Martin Downs
Reviewed By Brunilda Nazario
Discount superstores, or big-box stores as many like to call them, epitomize the wants of time- and budget-strapped American consumers: everything, cheap, in one place. For shoppers in greater Minneapolis and Baltimore, that includes not only housewares, groceries, and photo processing, but also health care.
At Target stores in these cities you can get medical tests, vaccinations, and treatment for minor ailments at a MinuteClinic, located near the store pharmacy. A menu posted outside the clinic lists the services available and conditions treated, with a price for each. Sinus infection, $44. Mono, $51. Cholesterol test, $37.
Patients need no appointment, and a visit is supposed to take about 15 minutes.
"If there are two or three people ahead of them they can take a beeper and do some shopping, and we can beep them, or they can leave their cell phone number," says Cathy Wisner, PhD, a nurse practitioner who works at a Minneapolis MinuteClinic and is also a company vice president.
You won't see a doctor at a MinuteClinic. There are none. Nurse practitioners, qualified and licensed to provide the kind of care MinuteClinic offers, do the job, aided by a computer program that guides them through the process. If a patient comes in with what he thinks is strep throat, for example, and the strep test comes back positive, the program will let the practitioner print out a prescription for antibiotics. If it's not strep, then the software won't allow antibiotics to be prescribed.

Britt Technology Impact Series: Strategy
The Britt Technology Impact Series (BTIS) provides MBA candidates and the Tuck and Dartmouth communities with insights into how changes in technology affect individuals, impact enterprises and reshape industries. The series explores a different theme each academic year through events including panel discussions with industry leaders, one-on-one meetings with executives and academic seminars. At year-end, the center produces an overview of the findings that gives students unique perspectives on relevant business and technology issues. This program is made possible by a generous donation from Glenn Britt T'72, former Chairman, President & CEO of Time Warner Cable. The 2015-16 BTIS is examining the radical transformation that technology is having on business models in a series titled, The Digital (R)Evolution: Transforming Business Models.
We invite you to experience past overviews and series on hyperconnectivity, IoT, Big Data, Cloud, Social, Mobile and Video.
Current Series: The Digital (R)Evolution: Transforming Business Models
Technology is enabling the transformation of entire industries, including retail, healthcare, financial services, media and entertainment, and manufacturing. Infrastructure that once enabled technology is increasingly a new line of business itself, as companies look to contract with service providers instead of managing their own assets in-house. Mobile phones and location services are rapidly changing a wide array of services, with sharing economy companies displacing traditionally static sectors of the economy as technology enables consumers to gain access to assets without requiring ownership.
Why are we seeing so many new business models? How will individuals, executives, enterprises, and industries respond to new players with alternative business models challenging their industries? What role does technology play in enabling these business models? What industries have been most impacted, and which are likely to be significantly impacted in the future? What role does corporate IT play in supporting their enterprises' creation of new business models? The 2015-2016 Britt Technology Impact Series will seek to answer these questions and further explore the radical transformation that technology is having on business models.

Grey Canada, Toronto brings us this hot ad. Teeheehee. Oh wait, there's more inside - it's kind of a Badlander.
Yes, y'all might remember a Cannes gold lion winner of 1999 from DM9 DDB, Sao Paulo for Parmalat Hot Chili Ketchup, it was claimed to be a scam ad and AdAge even tried to find the source of the media run.
After repeated calls by Advertising Age to the agency asking when and where the ad ran, a representative said the ad ran in June 1999 in an unnamed magazine published by a company called Sisal. The deadline for Cannes entries is two months earlier, in April, implying the ad only ran after it was awarded. And Sisal, a call to the company revealed, publishes car magazines, an improbable media choice for a ketchup ad.
So, the Pringles ad might be a Badlander, in that we've seen the idea before. But then again, maybe not since the other ad might not have been a real ad anyway. Still, if you want to depict "hot" what better way than a tongue sticking out?
Hanghoon, Westside Studios (Photographer)
Rick Kemp (Creative Director)
Nicole Ellerton (Art director and Copywriter)
My first thought is that, in the context of food, someone sticks out their tongue because it tastes awful. Or they want to puke.
Salty Dog do a nice Jalapeno and Coriander crisp. That's Salty Dog, manufacturers of fine potato crisps to the UK since 2002*
*was that okay, guys?

so what is the overall feeling on this board regarding RHT's earnings report on Wednesday? they always seem to impress when they report, and we get a nice rally, then come the upgrades and increaded price targets, and then i sells off. where do you people see RHT on Thursday morning?
If you look at the left column you will see a link called 'analysts estimates'. You will find it there
As you stated, there is a pattern that it always seems to follow. That said, my feeling is that it has been undervalued for some time. For it to pop to where it has been targeted for some time ($50), it willl need some very good surprises to overcome the general market pressure. If it just does OK, then we may see a climb to the mid 40's.

And who says WI doesn't have some nice looking women?
@ Bob Patrick:
Why can't you just give her credit for doing something you don't have the stones to do? And I'm not even talking about the competition itself... how about just having a dream and deciding to go for it? Even if the producers portray her as a 'character,' let her enjoy her 15 minutes of fame.
umm... yeah. Good luck. I'm sure very nice, good intentioned girl, but man... she definitely for some reason tries to come off as a ditzy; speech-wise as Bob Patrick put it, nailed it on the head, perfect impersonation.
I once met Andy Griffith. Do a story on me! I'm The Man Who Met Andy Griffith.

I just installed WordPress with a brand new domain, no transferring.
My site URL, and therefore permalinks (I have not posted yet, until this is fixed in the preview), is saying http://184.108.40.206/~kimandca which is not the domain name I want to use. I've changed the WordPress URL successfully, already.
Am I supposed to change the Site URL to my domain name, too? I don't understand if I change this, am I losing the link that is hosting wordpress? I don't want to accidentally delete anything, yet all info I have found is saying this is a subdirectory that shouldn't be altered normally.

I'll be at MAVBUG next Tuesday doing my ASP.NET Tips and Tricks session. I've already done this session as an MSDN seminar, but it will be the first time I do it for a user group.
This is the session where I take apart the Time Tracker sample application from the ASP.NET Starter Kits. We'll do a ton of demos:
This should be a good session for folks who don't have a lot of experience with ASP.NET. We'll look at several useful techniques in ASP.NET, and I'll make sure we go slowly enough to answer a ton of questions. I hope I'll see you there.
This meeting is at Light Industries in Millersville, MD (directions), and starts at 6:30 PM.

museum-based science education for young people through a
staff exchange trip to the National Science Museum of
Thailand in Bangkok.
Ms Pierce left Dunedin at the weekend on a two-week trip to
the Bangkok facility.
Her visit includes a week observing and taking part in an
outreach visit by museum staff to a regional area outside the
Thai capital.
This was a "great opportunity" to learn more about the Thai
museum's expertise in running lively, interactive science
shows for youngsters, she said.

Tip of the Day
Disabling Live Search in iTunes 11
iTunes 11 introduces a new "Live Search" feature that is designed to allow you to search across your entire iTunes library when entering information in the Search field in the top-right corner of your iTunes window. As useful as this may be for some situations, not everybody will necessarily be a fan of the new search style, particularly as it can be somewhat slower with larger libraries. The good news is that if you find the feature more annoying than useful, you can very easily turn it off: Simply click on the magnifying glass in the search field, and a drop-down menu will appear with an option, enabled by default, to Search entire library. Click on this option to turn it back off, and iTunes will return to the search behaviour found in previous versions, allowing you to filter only the displayed category rather than showing results from your entire library. As a bonus, you can easily tell which mode is enabled from reading the background text in the search field; the word Search will be followed by Library when the full "live search" is enabled or the current category name (e.g. "Music") when using the older style filtered search.

thanks for the instructions! even though i got it working like in previous versions, the search is much slower, the search results get updated with a delay which doesn't feel as nice as before…

YES. thank you for the quick fix. the new search function is one of my least favorite new additions.
any idea how to revert the miniplayer to previous versions?

Thanks so much for this info dude. As a DJ, itunes was never "broke," don't know why they felt the need to "fix it." So annoying. Sometimes fell as though Apple has money or a budget of some sort to burn, so they need to justify an expenditure by "fixing" or "upgrading" something of there's. Those geniuses need to keep in mind the KISS concept.

Great purchase

Comments about Blick Cotton and Linen Canvas Blankets:
I have been vary impressed with this linen so far. I add trouble getting out the wrinkles in the folded blanket before stretching, and because I like to use a PVA size applied before streching, this did pose an issue. I ironed on the hottest setting 3 times and still had some deep creases showing in the linen. I decided to size the linen on the stretcher bars, which took out all the wrinkles, but with the PVA sizing I was still left with a slack canvas and had to tap out the frame with wedges. If I had been using a rabbit skin glue or acrylic size, the wrinkles would not have posed any issue at all.All in all I am very please with the linen and have been able to successfully make a beautiful surface with more archival integrity and a lovely texture.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great Product - Great PRice
By JuiceWagon

I have bought this canvas several times now and it stretches great and works well for large format work. Never tears at the attachment point and doesn't come with nasty wrinkles or stress marks from storage/shipping.
Great Product

These canvas blankets are great! They are durable and the 10 ounce is just right!I think its the best deal out there for the quality and quantity!
Goof stuff with on exception
By Orygone
from Cheshire, Oregon
I needed large size canvas quickly for a commission. No local art stores carry rolls of primed or un-primed canvas. I ordered, and quickly received (thanks), the folded cotton canvas, which is excellent in weight and texture. What was not so wonderful were the creases caused, I presume, by stacking the blankets in storage, creating sharp-edged wrinkles difficult to remove even after wetting and tightly stretching the canvas.
Great value at a great price!

First time using linen for oil painting. I had always used a cotton duck canvas prior. Just wanted to try a linen and see how I felt. Price of rolls was daunting so the folded blanket was a reasonable alternative. Must say I am loving it. Takes paint beautifully and my colors are vibrant! Little bit of a learning curve prepping the canvas with the gesso, but I figured it out and couldn't be happier. This will likely be my " go to" for my bigger/ important pieces!

Taking Up Slack
This is a continuation of the technique thread Kotegashi Weakness. I'm starting a separate thread because I don't want to hijack the original thread. I don't see taking up slack as a "simple" concept that everyone understands.
Personally I know I'm not consistently taking up slack while doing techniques. Even though I can intellectualize about slack, to actualize it during the execution of a technique is a challenge. And taking up slack is important. It is probably the most common reason aikido techniques "don't work".
If you hold someone and you can feel their bones, you're holding too hard. When you take up slack, you just feel their skin. If you hold someone's wrist, the weight of your relaxed arm should automatically take up slack. So you can not only take up slack on a person, but you can also take up slack holding a sword. Also you can take up slack when someone is testing you to see if you're doing rowing exercise correctly. Taking up slack applies not only to empty-handed techniques, but to weapons and exercise testing.
The concept of taking up slack permeates aikido, yet I've never read a discussion about it. I have heard people occasionally mention it, but no one I've heard has really focused on it.
One interesting implication is this:
Re: Taking Up Slack
Hi Ted,
I have trained with non-Ki Society people (hi Chuck!) who connect with the barest of skin-to-skin contact. For instance, one person stands with his/her hands palm up, and the their partner places his/her hands on it, palms down. The person with their palms up then tries to affect his/her partner's balance by moving. If "uke" feels anything, they're free to just move their hands. I've been thrown this way in the past. I've shown this exercise (or, at least, my interpretation thereof) where I currently train.
I never got to feel him, but from those who have, I heard that Yamaguchi sensei used to have hands that felt "sticky." Without him gripping, he was able to affect people through this sort of soft yet compelling hands. I have felt students on his (who are now shihan) who do this sort of thing.
Of course, this doesn't mean that this it the only way that we practice. As you mentioned before, Aikikai is an organization, not a style. There are those out there who do use a rather strong, "crushing" grip. We do it at times, too.
But, to say that no one outside of Ki Society or any one group doesn't practice in the manner that you outline is, I think, painting with a rather broad brush...
Just my thoughts.
-- Jun
Re: Taking Up Slack
Saotome Sensei seldom grips you, unless it is a technique like yonkyo... his touch is light and he gives direction to the movement with his hips and legs, not the arms. At any instant he is capable of throwing an atemi, which is true of Ikeda Sensei as well. Anothe one who put emphasis on this principle was the elder Osawa Sensei. There is quite a bit of his movement that one can see in Saotome Sensei.
Re: Taking Up Slack
Charles Hill
Re: Taking Up Slack
Phong Sensei of Tenshinkai (Aikikai) Aikido is always reminding us to take up the slack and keep the momentum taunt.
Re: Taking Up Slack
Not wanting to get in between the Ki Society/Aikikai tango here (God knows we're already the Aiki-heathen :p ) but returning to something that Craig said in the "kotegaeshi weakness" post - doesn't the application and maintenance of effective kuzushi automatically take up any slack that exists on the attacking limb while one applies technique?
In our training the ability to eliminate holes for Uke to recover (especially in the form of things like slack) is very important in making technique effective. However, we don't exaclty focus on this "taking up of slack" concept as it's contained in the practice of creating and maintaining kuzushi.
Just a thought I had.
Re: Taking Up Slack
taking up and not allowing slack allows (is necessary?) application and maintenance of kuzushi
and application and maintenance of kuzushi involves taking up and not allowing slack.
now you can also talk about the rest of the elephant.
Re: Taking Up Slack
6 of one, half a dozen of the other Craig.:)
Iow, as I gathered from your post on the kotegaeshi thread, if one has the kuzushi correct then there should not be a problem of taking up slack... on the reverse side, if one focuses on taking up the slack, then the resultant kuzushi should be effective and correct. Makes sense to me.
Imo kuzushi should be applied instinctively like the rest of any effective technique (preferably during the avoidance phase), so I guess the practice of effective kuzushi drills can deal with someone's inability to take up slack in his/her basic technique.
Just some thoughts.
Re: Taking Up Slack
While I would never say there is only one way to teach something, most of
the disagreements lie in what are the most effective ways to teach this.
in my personal opinion the best teachers are really heretics at their core when it comes down to an individual student.

Boris Mironov - "Signing with the Rangers is the End of Your Career"
Kent Wilson
December 08 2011 04:49PM
Translation courtesy Andrey Osadcehnko
**Original text - Alexander Voynov, Sport Weekend
- Do you remember your first game as a pro?
You bet! I was 17. I think it was season 1988/89. It was the last game of the season against Sokol Kiev. I was very nervous. I was put out there with Alexei Kasatonov – the legend. He tried to cheer me up as best as he could. We won 8:2 but I was frustrated.
Top-5 Russians: Edmonton Oilers
Kent Wilson
December 06 2011 09:47AM
By Andrey Osadchenko
The Oilers could never really brag about their Russians. It might the cold, it might be the distance between Motherland and Edmonton (which is huge) and it might be something else, but the ugly truth is that none of the Russians ever spent a whole lot of time with the team. Here's a quick look at five who did and left their mark. Ironically, four of them are defensemen.
GDB 27.0: Battle of Alberta Means Something Again
Kent Wilson
December 03 2011 04:17PM
(Wanye has instituted a new rule when it comes to BoA's: winner of the last game gets to write the losers game day post. Naturally I readily agreed because it benefited my side of the conflict. So for those Oilers faithful wondering why a scummy Flames fan is penning your GDB, kindly refer all complaints to Mr. Wanye Gretz III esquire)
It's probably not a surprise to most Edmonton fans that none of us down south have taken your club too seriously recently. And by recently, I of course mean for the better part of a decade. Darryl Sutter has become a figure of parody in Calgary since his descent into utter madness and subsequent firing, but his era as Flames coach/GM did feature at least one consistently positive aspect: beating up on the Oil.
Battle of Alberta - Game the First Live Chat
Kent Wilson
October 18 2011 06:20PM
The Oilers are off to a better than expected start. The Flames have been incredibly sluggish.
Calgary has owned the BofA the last few years, but there's some question whether that will continue much longer. Can Oil can begin the turn around tonight in Calgary or will the Flames manage to prolong their dominance for just a bit longer?
Lost Russians: Edmonton Oilers
Kent Wilson
October 12 2011 10:13AM
Editors note: Andrey Osadchenko is the senior Russian Correspondent at the Nations Network. He writes regularly in Russian at allhockey.ru, and has a series of web videos called "Joining the Rush" with Steve Dangle. Today Andrey catches up with some of the former Russian-born draft picks of the Oilers organization. The piece underscores why drafting Russian-born players has gone somewhat out of style; simply put, it's a risky proposition.
By: Andrey Osadchenko
The Oilers were always cautious when it came to drafting Russian-born players. Over the entire history of the franchise they picked just 19 Russians, while only one of them left a noticeable mark – Alexei Semenov. Remember him? No? Ah well, nobody is going to hold it against you.

Beckham Has No Future With England Soccer Team, Capello Says
David Beckham won't play another competitive soccer match for England under coach Fabio Capello, signaling the end of his international career at the age of 35.
Beckham will be given one more opportunity to play for his country in an exhibition match at Wembley Stadium once the former captain recovers from an Achilles injury, Capello told reporters last night after England's 2-1 win over Hungary.
"David is a fantastic player but I think we need new players for the future," Capello said at a news conference.
Asked by broadcaster ITV before the game if Beckham would return to the team, Capello said the Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder is "probably a bit too old" before adding, "Thank you, David."
Beckham has appeared for England 115 times, more than any outfield player and second to goalkeeper Peter Shilton, who played 125 times from 1970-90.
Capello said he hadn't contacted Beckham to inform him that he's no longer in his plans. Beckham wasn't at Wembley for the exhibition match with Hungary, England's first since a second-round exit at the World Cup in June. The player's spokesman Simon Oliveira said in a text message that the midfielder hasn't contemplated retiring from international soccer.
"There has been no discussion of retirement," Oliveira said. "He will always be available for his country, when fit, and if needed he will always be there."
Beckham made his national-team debut against Moldova in September 1996 and has scored 17 goals in international play. He made his World Cup debut against Romania in 1998 and has three goals in 12 games at the tournament.
Infamous Moment
His World Cup low point came on June 30, 1998, in St. Etienne, France, when he was ejected for kicking Diego Simeone during a second-round match against Argentina. Beckham was vilified in the English media after Argentina won a penalty shootout following a 2-2 draw.
Almost four years later, Beckham was lauded as the team's savior for scoring with a 25-yard (22-meter) free kick in the second minute of injury time to give England a 2-2 draw with Greece and a place in the 2002 World Cup.
In that tournament, he played after breaking a bone in his left foot in the run-up and made amends for his ejection at the 1998 edition by scoring from the penalty spot to give England a 1-0 group-stage win over Argentina.
Beckham traveled to this year's World Cup with the English squad after Capello asked the former Manchester United and Real Madrid player to join his coaching staff for the tournament.
Empty Seats
Last night, only 72,024 spectators watched England play Hungary at London's 90,000-seat Wembley Stadium, even after ticket prices were slashed to spur demand following the team's performance in South Africa. It ended with England's worst World Cup loss, a 4-1 defeat by Germany.
Captain Steven Gerrard scored in the 69th and 73rd minutes after 27-year-old central defender Phil Jagielka turned a low cross into his own net to give Hungary a 62nd-minute lead.
Capello included only 10 of the 23 players who made up the World Cup squad.
Four of the survivors -- Chelsea trio John Terry, Frank Lampard and Ashley Cole, and Manchester United's Wayne Rooney -- were jeered by fans until they were replaced by substitutes.
"I think we found new players, young players for the future," the coach said. "People spoke about the fans booing and there was big pressure but the new players played with confidence."

After Nana died at the age of 100, I couldn't find her recipe and no one else in the family had saved it. I recently discovered it while cleaning out a kitchen cupboard.

The second week of the sex worker's murder trial is underway
in Christchurch with expert forensic evidence this morning.
Mongrel Mob gang prospect Mauha Huataki Fawcett, 26, denies
murder and is representing himself at the High Court with the
assistance of an amicus curiae.
He claims police pressured him into making false confessions
that he was present when Miss Manning, 27, was killed on or
about December 18, 2008 over an alleged debt.
The Crown says Fawcett - then aged 20 - either took part in
the killing, or was there as a party to her murder.
Miss Manning's partially naked body was discovered floating
in the Avon River the day after she was killed.
ESR forensic scientist Jayshree Patel told the jury of six
men and six women today that a knife found on the murky
riverbed had her DNA on it.
It was 110 times more likely to have come from her than
anyone else, Dr Patel said.
Other swabs taken from her body found DNA linked to two
different men - an unknown male, known as 'male b', and a
client she entertained on the night she died.
The trial, before Justice David Gendall, continues.
It will hear from more than 100 witnesses and is set down for
another five weeks.
In his first police interviews, Fawcett described how Miss
Manning was taken to the gang pad at Galbraith Avenue,
Avonside, where she was raped, bashed and stabbed.
Fawcett initially told police that Mongrel Mob gangsters
barked like dogs and gave Nazi salutes as they carried out
the fatal assault. She was then dumped in the river 200
metres away.
Fawcett later backtracked from his earlier version of events,
saying he wasn't present during the attack.

When children refuse to speak in some social settings, but can understand and speak in other settings, the diagnosis of selective mutism must be considered. A review of the literature describes the disorder, the various types of mutism, and related family dynamics. A family systems approach to treatment using structural family therapy is suggested. The case history presented illustrates one type of mutism as well as the family rules and hierarchy which appeared to be maintaining it. Structural and strategic family systems theory techniques that were used to move the family toward resolution of this problem are discussed.

At sixteen Anne is grown up. . . almost. Her gray eyes shine like evening stars, but her red hair is still as peppery as her temper. In the years since she arrived at Green Gables as a freckle-faced orphan, she has earned the love of the people of Avonlea and a reputation for getting into scrapes. But when Anne begins her job as the new schoolteacher, the real test of her character begins. Along with teaching the three Rs, she is learning how complicated life can be when she meddles in someone else's romance, finds two new orphans at Green Gables, and wonders about the strange behavior of the very handsome Gilbert Blythe. As Anne enters womanhood, her adventures touch the heart and the funny bone.
About the Author

Lucy Maud Montgomery was born in Clifton (now New London), Prince Edward Island on November 30, 1874. Raised by her maternal grandparents, she attended Prince of Wales College in Charlottetown and obtained her teaching certificate. She later studied literature at Dalhousie University in Halifax. She eventually married Ewan Macdonald, a Presbyterian minister, whom she had 3 sons with. She published 12 books in her career and countless journals. Montgomery died in Toronto in 1942.

Arlo Guthrie: Born to Play Music
Set List
- "Oklahoma Hills"
- "Pastures of Plenty"
- "St. James Infirmary"
- "When the Lilacs Are in Bloom"
- "Union Maid"
- "Green Green Rocky Road"
Arlo Guthrie is the oldest son of folk-music legend Woody Guthrie and Marjorie Mazia Guthrie, a dancer in the Martha Graham Company. He has become a musician of international renown without ever experiencing what can be classified a hit: While "Alice's Restaurant" and "Coming Into Los Angeles" were immensely popular among crowds at the 1969 Woodstock and Newport Folk Festival, they didn't gain much radio airplay.
Music was a natural career choice for Guthrie, who grew up surrounded by musicians and dancers, and he started performing publicly at 13. An accomplished musician, Guthrie plays piano, harmonica, a six and twelve-string guitar and at least a dozen other instruments. His diverse talents also include arranging his own music, acting, writing, doing charitable work and running his own record label. Even after four decades of touring the world, Guthrie still tours almost 10 months a year, frequently accompanied by one or both of his children, Abe and Sarah Lee.

Millennium Pharmaceuticals is paying $60 million up front for development and commercialization rights to Seattle Genetics' late-stage antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), brentuximab vedotin (SGN-35). The deal could bring Seattle another $230 million in milestones plus double-digit sales royalties.
Seattle retains full commercialization rights to brentuximab vedotin in the U.S. and Canada. Millennium's parent company, Takeda Pharmaceutical, has exclusive commercialization rights in the rest of the world. The partners will equally co-fund development costs worldwide, except in Japan, where Takeda will fund all development of brentuximab vendotin. Takeda's funding over the first three years of the collaboration is expected to top $75 million.
Brentuximab vedotin is a CD30-targeting candidate currently undergoing a registrational Phase II trial in relapsed or refractory Hodgkin lymphoma under a Special Protocol Assessment with the FDA. It is designed to provide the basis for regulatory submissions in the U.S. and Europe during 2011. The drug is also in late-stage clinical trials as a treatment for systemic anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

To prevent any team from scoring a TD, particularly when they get the ball so close to the goal line, is a good thing imo. 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the following essay, Widdowson presents an overview of critical theory on Hardy, especially in criticism written since the 1960s.
Essay titles are an attempt to say much in little, at once synoptic shorthand for the work which follows and for the whole area of intellectual enquiry to which it alludes. As such, they are susceptible to ambiguity and imprecision, and the title of the present essay is no exception. What is meant, we might ask, by "Critical Theory," and is it synonymous with that other cognate phrase—"Literary Theory"? While the commonly made slippage between the terms demands urgent attention, it is way beyond the scope of an essay...
