There are manifold relations of power that permeate, characterize and constitute the social body, and these relations of power cannot themselves be established, consolidated nor implimented without... a discourse. Michel Foucault
THE PROJECT OF RESTORING the road to the middle class is not just a question of ideas, but of assembling and using political power to implement ideas. The goals of this project are substantial. We want to smash the war on religion. We want to break the back of the welfare state monopolies in family-substitution and in education. And we want to curb the imperial judiciarys war on middle-class culture and mores. That is what we need in order to clear the road to the middle class of all the barriers and blockages that have piled up over the twentieth century. But we also want to recognize the needs of the non-middle class: the creatives and the communitarians who want to transcend the simple rules and purpose of the road to the middle class. We want them to get what they want. We just draw the line at replacing the road to the middle class with the mass- transit system of the welfare state that demotes ordinary people from the role of driver into passive passenger.
The war on religion, the creaking monopolies of the welfare state, and the war on conventional middle-class morality did not just happen. We were, as Eeyore complained to Winnie-the-Pooh, Pushed. The war on religion comes from a world-view that sees organized religion as a superstition wedded to the past. The welfare state monopolies are the consequence of elite belief that the root cause of poverty is a lack of material resources needed for a decent life. The attack on conventional morality comes from those who believe that people should create their own authentic life- style rather than blindly follow someone elses rules.
This war on the middle class is all part of a grand, if often inchoate, vision. Necessarily, this grand vision has a program of education to guide people into its ways, and for those that are not amenable to sweet reason there are the instruments of shame and the sinews of power. Those that do not conform to its policy on race are shamed as racists, those that do not support its program of gender equality are shamed as sexists, those that do not support its class war are shamed as classists, and those that do not support its attack on marriage are shamed as homophobes. In addition, of course, the vast monopolies of the welfare state in education, in health care, and in superannuation all support the program with the blunt encouragement of taxation and political power.
The great obstacle to removing the obstructions from the road to the middle class is the narcissism and pride of the worlds creative classes. They experience their culture of creativity and universal compassion as a new world vision that must inevitably replace the primitive regime of power and corruption that has obtained up to now. But the All Quadrant/All Level matrix shows this world-view to be defective. It shows that though the creative classes have developed important ideas and visions of the future they have also built a culture of narcissistic self-congratulation, a Whig history that experiences themselves as the culmination of history. Their worldview rests upon the assertion that the blue purposive consciousness of the bourgeoisie is illegitimate and inauthentic, and a threat to the development of a new culture based on soulfulness and creativity. To say that this attitude is widespread among the creative classes is almost to miss the point. It goes beyond attitude to the level of reality, an unconscious reality that is accepted without question or the need for justification. It is natural for such a believer, even a moral duty, to work to marginalize the middle-class culture of purpose and respectability in the building of the new era of creativity and universal community.
But the AQAL matrix challenges this whole worldview. Against the bigoted marginalization of middle class culture, it naturally calls for a culture of tolerance in the enlightened and the highly evolved, a culture that can respect and tolerate the struggles of those who have not yet reached the high estate of full enlightenment. It specifically warns the creative classes of their error. They must stop persecuting the middle class with their attack on its religion and its respect for the rules. The AQAL matrix demands their tolerance and forbearance, and it is the destiny of the conservative movement to teach our creative elites about tolerance for the ordinary middle class. The conservative destiny is not, perhaps, as grand as the destiny of the liberal elite that, in the middle of the twentieth century, taught white Americans to curb their discrimination against the American Negro. But it is an honorable and worthy task that needs to be done.
But can a strategy of recommending tolerance succeed? Probably not. That is why it is necessary to augment the high road of education with a low road of shame, appealing not just to the better angels of the enlightened, but shaming them into understanding the monstrous acts of exploitation and repression they have committed in the name of compassion and diversity.
We must make it shameful to marginalize religion. Right now, any writer for The New York Times feels free to load up the old coon gun left behind by the Southern racists and fire off both barrels at any traditional religious target her coon dog has treed (except a Moslem). And her shameful feature floats up through the layers of 43rd Street editing to eventual publication without a discouraging word from the famously tolerant cultural elite. We want bigots like her cowering in the same hole as the redneck racists.
We must make it shameful to marginalize people who go to work, follow the rules, pay their taxes and obey the law.
The question is: how? How do we end this monstrous bigotry? The answer is: one bigot at a time. In the 1980s and 1990s the left managed to mount a successful campaign of political correctness that effectively banned, particularly in the university, the expression of opinion with which they disagreed. They made it shameful to express opinions about race, class, gender, and homosexuality with which they disagreed. Their campaign came out of nowhere, rose to power, and now seems to be fading away as conservatives have begun to fight back. We wish to do the same, only we have a very limited agenda and our cause is just. We only wish to make it shameful to marginalize religion. And we already have the means to achieve it. Our conservative blogosphere is already spoiling the acoustics in the liberal echo chamber.
The campaign of shame against the anti-religious bigots will have the three components articulated in this book. Each of the themes is a plea for tolerance. First of all there is the practical advice of Plato, advising his enlightened one to go easy on the prisoners when he returns to the cave. All the talk of walls and fires and sunlight mean nothing to a man chained to the ground, and whose entire reality amounts to the dancing shadows on a wall. If you disturb him too much, he will kill you. This is the argument of prudence. Go easy on the man who doesnt understand your brilliant evolution into enlightenment. If he cant understand your brilliant aperçus he will think you mad. Perhaps he will kill you. Then there is the argument from history. When the bourgeoisie burst onto the world stage in full glory in the nineteenth century, the progressives demanded that the bourgeoisie treat the struggling working class with compassion and understanding. They demanded that the bourgeoisie restrain its power over the working class and tax itself to help them, in education and in social insurance. Whether from a practical instinct for self-preservation or from actual compassion, the bourgeoisie did so. It made allowances for the struggling working class. Today, we make the same demand, only we make the demand of the creative class that they tolerate and subsidize the lower-middle class that is struggling to make it into the middle class. Then there is the argument of Eric Voegelin. He demolishes the traditional opposition of my truth versus your superstition by constructing a worldview that represents old ways as compact knowledge and belief and that understands new ways as differentiated knowledge and belief. Tolerance of other peoples ideas becomes, in Voegelins world, not just patronizing indulgence, but practical common sense. It helps, no doubt, to be a Kantian, and to accept that the world is experienced as appearance only, and that things-in-themselves can never be experienced directly. Finally, there is the argument developed by Clare Graves and his adepts Don Beck and Ken Wilber. They experience human consciousness is a layered or spiral entity. When you develop a higher level of consciousness, you do not replace the lower level; you merely develop the ability to repress the lower level in certain circumstances. They amplify the warning of Freud. If you try to crush out a lower level, they warn, you will not merely suffer from Freudian neurosis; you will regress to the level immediately below the level you have repressed.
The campaign of shame against the anti- religious bigots will have a political component, because the Democratic Party is the party of secularism and religious bigotry, and the Republican Party is the party of religious acceptance and tolerance. A study published in by Bolce and De Maio in The Public Interest demonstrated that Democrats in the late twentieth century had developed an intense and visceral hatred of religious people. At the 1992 national convention over half the delegates, asked to rate Christian fundamentalists on a feeling thermometer graduated from a cold 0 to a neutral 50 to a warm 100, gave them a rating at an ice cold zero. They couldnt imagine anything more horrible. To convert these bigots from their extremism will take more than sweet reason. It will take the hot blush of shame and the cruel twist of political power.
The campaign for tolerance and the campaign of shame represent the deployment of soft power. But we cannot ignore the importance of hard power, the deployment of political forces that control and direct the political life of the nation and its government institutions. Like nature, political power abhors a vacuum, and conservatives must learn to use it or lose it.
The AQAL matrix teaches us that power is always with us. There will never be a society of gentle green communitarians caring and sharing for all their fellow men, because underneath the surface of every green communitarian is the blue purposive that railed against the Iraq war as illegal and immoral, and the red impulsive that rails about discrimination and victimization. There will always be power because there will always be politics. And politics is a contest of power, of civil war by other means.
Power is shameful, and long-established powers have liked to veil their power behind an image of ritual and orthodoxy. Edmund Burke, the scourge of the French Revolution, liked to represent the power plays of the British Glorious Revolution a century before as a modest return to ancient liberties. The United States likes to hide its unprecedented power beneath the skirts of democracy and the rule of law. But the revolution of 1688 succeeded because the Whigs in parliament had the power to send James II packing and change the royal succession to the foreign Princess Sophia as the stock and root of inheritance to our kings. The United States rules the world because it has power: hard power or soft power, it is still backed up by its vast military and economic might. The movers and shakers of the welfare state are no different. They like to represent their rule as pure benevolence, and they rehearse its history as a succession of benefits given to the people. In fact, of course, they rule through power, extracting huge amounts of money from their subjects in taxes, so that they can, with vast generosity, give it back to them.
The welfare state was created by political power. The budding lower-middle class culture of religion, education, mutual aid, and living under law that grew and flourished in the nineteenth century was defeated by that power. The mutual- aid culture was beaten by the political power of the insurance companies and the doctors and then replaced by a culture of government employees that have come to call themselves helping professionals. The private education culture was defeated in the United States by the power of a political coalition: anti-Catholics that wanted to cure Irish and Italian children of their Catholicism, socialists that wanted to cure children of their bourogeoisism, Unitarians that wanted to cure children of their Puritanism, and elite Germanophiles in love with the state-run education system of Prussia. And the law was perverted by the new class of intellectuals and public thinkers who discovered in the law a source of power to effect social change without the mess of political organization and legislating.
The little platoons of mutualism and non-government education were dragooned into the feudal host of the welfare state. Only the culture of enthusiastic religion survived more or less undefeated through the tumult of the twentieth century. And that was because the best and the brightest were so entranced by their own religion, socialism, that they wanted nothing to do with the old kind.
The welfare state is sustained by power. It is supported by the votes of those that benefit from it: the single women, the red impulsives, and of course the elites and the government employees that work for it. Its power issues partly from its power of patronage, its power of shame, and the power of its vision of the good society.
But after a century of dominance, the vast undifferentiated host of the welfare state that marched all over middle class culture has started to break up. The tractable working-class voter that once delivered up his vote in return for the patronage of the liege lord of the big city machine is less amenable to a patronage system. Ready for responsibility, many of them have revolted against the social agenda of their patrons. But what will replace the old system?
The entrenched welfare state will not leave the stage unless it is pushed, so conservatives must develop a strategy to defeat it. We can see the shape of the strategy emerging in the policies of the Republican administrations of the late twentieth century: the tax rate reductions, the privatizations of state enterprises, and deregulations of state sponsored monopolies. Now in the early twenty-first century we can see the next step emerging: the conversion of one-size-fits-all government monopolies in pensions, health care, and education into more flexible social institutions in which the government remains a major player, but no longer acts as a feudal lord dispensing benefits to a grateful peasantry. The effect of these reforms will be to reconfigure the political power relations away from the feudal status model of the welfare state to a contract model, as obtained in the commercial empire of Venice, in which the organized interestsprincelings, merchants, artisans, churches, and associationscompeted with each other in the dance of power.
Conservative power in the post-welfare state will have two goals, to harass and dissipate powers that arise to rebuild the road to serfdom, and to build new centers of political power that will advance the cause of limited government and personal responsibility. But it must achieve this within a vision that recognizes the diverse needs of people at different stages in the AQAL matrix. There will remain red impulsive Americans who will need a continuation or replacement for the comforting tribal institutions of the welfare state that condoned their red complaint of whats in it for me while providing them also the security of a life with minimal personal responsibility. There will remain orange creatives, still anxious to differentiate themselves from straight America and to demonstrate to the world their heroic refusal to conform to the norm of stolid bourgeoisism. Finally, there will remain the green communitarians who want to differentiate themselves from the stolid middle class by their universalism, by their advanced rejection of the cycle of violence and their desire to move on to a higher plane of social relations. The challenge is to create a matrix of power that will preserve conservative goals while allowing the other groups their legitimate and most passionately felt needs.
In the short run, of course, liberals will do our work for us. As the Republicans consolidate power, The New York Times readers will find themselves on the outside looking in and will radically change their ideas about political power and limited government. We saw Democratic enthusiasm for independent counsels suddenly evaporate when the independent counsel law written in the Watergate era to claw at Republican presidents was used to harass Bill Clinton, a Democrat. We saw the expressions of outrage in 2003 when Republicans in Colorado and Texas rammed through legislative redistricting to replace egregious Democratic gerrymanders with equally egregious Republican gerrymanders. In the years to come we can expect the editorial pages of The New York Times to discover the eternal virtues of non-partisan redistricting, especially if the political outlook offers the prospect of Tom DeLays for the foreseeable future.
In the political public square we can expect that Democratic policy analysts will write very different books when they come to fear that the old order of high-minded liberalism is in process of being replaced by a conservative insurgency of former pest exterminators. They will sing a different tune when they realize that they must live in America under a pharaoh that knew not FDR. If the United States Senate could defeat filibusters on conservative appeals court judges, if the House of Representatives started churning out a major entitlement reform every session, if the Supreme Courts reliable liberals were reduced from four to three and the court handed down a couple of landmark pro- conservative decisions we could expect the liberal elites to discover the virtues of limited government in the legislatures and strict constructionism in the courts. And that is all we want of them.
The new fear of government will help us in our goal to reduce the monopoly power of the welfare state. The beneficiaries of every government program are organized into iron triangles of beneficiaries, advocates, and politicians that support each other in promoting their special interest against the general interest. They advance their agenda in campaigns that blend emotional appeals to the public with financial support to the politicians that vote appropriations for the clients and salaries and pensions for the bureaucrats. The recipients of government spending, the clients and the providers, organize to elect and direct politicians to support their agendas. In military terms, what these special interest groups do is build and occupy fortified political space. Only a determined attacker can expect to dislodge them.
In this case, two strategies immediately suggest themselves. In many cases, it may suffice to frighten the defenders into capitulation. Ronald Reagan, exploiting his reputation as a mad bomber, used shows of force at least three times to frighten his adversaries. He used it in the air-traffic controllers strike of 2001. By firing a few strikers, he frightened millions into respectful obedience. His Grenada invasion and his Strategic Defense Initiative were two brilliant feints that cost almost nothing, but persuaded the Soviets that it was useless to resist U.S. power. A careful riffing of a few programs, or firings of imprudent government strikers might do wonders to keep the smoldering rage of the welfare state partisans from bursting into flame.
In the campaign against the education monopoly, the slow advance of education choice can be sped along with an occasional turning movement. It is likely that the National Education Association can be caught in occasional illegality and its supporters demoralized by legal action. In Washington State, the Evergreen Freedom Foundation keeps a constant fusillade of small-arms fire upon the Washington Education Association, suing it for using members contributions for illegal political activity. At some high point in the school-choice battle, it wouldnt hurt to have the top officers of the National Education Association doing a perp walk.
A similar strategy is likely to work on the government programs for child protection. In recent years, there have been a number of scandals: the mess of the child welfare system in New Jersey, the day-care center witch trials. One fine day, ambitious young lawyers may figure out that they way to run for District Attorney is by digging up horror stories in the governments child welfare system and calling for root-and-branch reform.
To reduce the support for the tribal welfare state it is essential to privatize as many monopoly service providers as possible. We want Americans to experience agricultural rent-seekers as evil agribusinesses instead of family farmers, educational rent-seekers as evil Big Education instead of our teachers, energy rent-seekers as evil power companies instead of our City Light, and fire-protection rent-seekers as evil fire companies instead of our firefighters, just as they happily rail today at Big Oil, Big Drug, and Big Tobacco with the enthusiastic encouragement of Democratic politicians and activists.
The dynamic of political power makes it very difficult to sustain a philosophy of government limited both in resources and in power. The challenge for conservatives and all believers in limited government is how to play the game of political power when you do not have a regiment recruited from your iron triangle to garrison your city on a hill. We do not want the matrix of society to be driven by the dynamic of detect a problem, frame an indictment, legislate a government program, and suck for evermore on the government teat. We do not want to set up the incestuous relationship of special interest activists, pensioned bureaucrats, and dependent clients that are so addicted to their tax-financed benefits that they lose all shame in defense of their golden hoard. Therefore we must invent another political dynamic, which enables us to occupy political space without creating a self-perpetuating special interest monopoly. How could this be done? What models are available in the world to guide us in the development of a sustainable political model that defends the rule of law, that extends the reach of personal responsibility, that resumes the movement from status to contract, and that includes the gentle rain of compassion to soften the sharp edges of responsibility and contract. Chances are there are models out there, staring at us in the face, ready to be taken up and adapted for use in national politics. We want strategies that frighten rent-seekers into reducing their demands for rent; we do not want the shirts off their backs.
The conservative movement has always been a simple thing at heart. It seeks to restore the dignity of lower-middle-class respectability to modern society. This stolid middle-class culture was marginalized by the left-wing elites when they constructed the welfare state. With their visionary plans for the elevation of the working class from penury to decency, they knew there would be no need for the cramped respectability of the skilled working class and their dogged Methodism. The working class would soon surpass all that and join their benefactors, the intellectual elite, in a more educated and, of course, secular culture. There was a flaw in this plan, a flaw that conservatives never quite managed to articulate, but which is brightly illuminated in the AQAL matrix. The red impulsive proletariat cannot jump straight into a universal society of green compassion dreamed of by the socialists. They must toil through the blue purposive consciousness and orange creativity before they can lose their creative ego in contemplation and sainthood. This is the truth that Robert William Fogel recognizes in The Fourth Great Awakening. The poor need not just the material improvement that the enlightened elite so proudly poured on them. They need to acquire a sense of purpose, a sense of the mainstream of work and life, a strong family ethic, and all the other values of purposive blue consciousness.
Fogel understands that the poor need to be allowed to get on with it, take control of their lives from the nanny state and build the competence and character that will equip them for success in the city. But he cannot quite bring himself to let go of the reins of power. Its temptations are too great. The poor will find purpose and a strong family ethic, he writes, but we liberals are still going to be needed to help them and instruct them.
It is the world-historical role of the conservative movement to help liberals take the step they cannot quite bear to make, to take the first step away from the intoxicating seat of power and let people live their own lives and learn their own lessons. Our destiny is to take the liberal ring of power back to the mountain and toss it back into the primeval flood of molten lava.
And after the conservative movement has smashed anti-religious bigotry, moved the working class from infantile dependency of the government monopoly welfare state to proud competence, and curbed the radical social agenda of the imperial judiciary, and become master of all it surveys, it will also be corrupted by the temptations of power, wander into decadence, and eventually decline and fall.

At first, we thought [the power of the West] was because you had more powerful guns than we had. Then we thought it was because you had the best political system.

I'll second that moving of cars, real or not I don't know, but me and my buddy (approx 205lbs) lifted a smaller car from the rear and spun it sideways for blocking his drive way.

I'll second that moving of cars, real or not I don't know, but me and my buddy (approx 205lbs) lifted a smaller car from the rear and spun it sideways for blocking his drive way.
Ever see those strongman competitions on ESPN? Those dudes have issues lifting up the ass end of a VW Beetle just once. Even they wouldn't be able to overturn a Corolla.
Assuming the COG is on the vehicle centerline, it would certainly not take anymore than 2390/2 = 1195 lbs of force to get it started off the ground. However, it will actually will take less than that, because by grabbing at the siderail of the chassis, he's got some mechanical advantage that he would not have if he were lifting from the point at which the tires touch the ground. In other words, he's getting about 7-8" of work for free. I don't know exactly how much that would help, but it would not be insignificant.
According to wikipedia, the world record for unassisted deadlift is 1015 lbs. While I doubt Upshaw's close to that, I've personally known (and watched) a 220-lb guy who could deadlift 600 lbs. I'm guessing Upshaw is significantly stronger than that.
I definitely would not say it's impossible. I'd go so far as to say it's probably be pretty easy for him with the engine/tranny out...
We're arguing minutiae and your own numbers prove my point.
Suppose your math and assumptions are true, he's now in the running for setting a new dead lift record.
He's a strong dude. No doubt about it. But he's not even close to world record type strength.
The commercial is doctored, either via CGI or the car has had a significant amount of weight removed. That's my original point.
We're not arguing minutiae. I think it might only take 800 lbs of lift to do it, even with the engine in, as I said in my first post. This would not represent world-record deadlift strength. You, on the other hand, are saying it's impossible.
Be nice if there were a third year mech eng student around. It's actually not that hard to figure this out. I just don't remember which equation to use...
Yeah, that bridge is still for sale then.
Seriously though, stay up late and watch one of those World Strongest Man shows on ESPN. They have a hard time flipping over 1,100 lb tires just once.
No human on the planet is going to flip an automobile with its interior and engine in tact.
Now obviously he didn't lift it, but because the team would not stand for him risking injury for a commercial.
I don't see that company spending money on CGI for a YouTube commercial, especially for a product that isn't targeted for mainstream consumers. Even if it's also being shown on TV, still...if it's CGI, then why bother with the duct tape on the windshield?
No, it's probably real, but they removed the engine block and whatever else to reduce the weight.
I think the key is Upshaw has no spotters for this stunt/advert
If the No1 draft pick rookie gets injured on a commercial the team would go crazy, it's surely in his contract not to anything that jeopardising his ability to play ball.
Remember sizzle getting injured and ppl kicking off thinking he may have been playing basketball(!) imagine if the story was he may have been shooting an advert!
No CGI in this one, and the car is probably intact. The trick is you never see the whole car while it is in a position where Courtney would need to be doing some real lifting. The first flip only shows half the car, with Upshaw visible in the front passenger window. I'm sure the other 3 dudes lifting with him were just out of frame. Anytime Courtney moves the car on his own it is either pushing it over in a way that even a smallish woman could (from it's side to it's back for example.)
So yea... simple camera trickery.

10 Comedians You Should Know
If you don't know this stand up now, he's about to become a household name.
Comedy Central
There are a lot of rising stars in the comedy world right now, and it seems stand-up is in something of a golden age. Even sitcoms, for the most part, have done away with the laugh tracks and traded the sexy Hollywood stars and starlets for professionals in the art of being funny. Truthfully, the more great comedians that are out there performing, the harder it is to know whom to follow. We just want to warn you that the following 10 people likely will have you giggling at your desk.
See also: Anwar Newton on His San Diego Comic-Con Shroom Freakout
John Mulaney
Although John Mulaney is the mastermind behind classic Saturday Night Live character Stefon, he's mostly been a behind-the-scenes kind of guy. That's all about to change in October when his show Mulaney premières on Fox. Kroll Show fans might also recognize him from the "Oh, Hello" skits. If you haven't seen his stand-up special John Mulaney: New In Town on Netflix, do yourself a favor and spend the next hour or so laughing your pants off.

Nikki Glaser
Nikki Glaser's machine gun-like brand of stand-up is unrelenting. Her performance on the Women Who Kill special (currently available on Netflix) with Amy Schumer, Marina Franklin, and Rachel Feinstein showcased her ability to bounce between raunchy jokes and self-deprecation. Although her MTV show Nikki & Sara Live (co-hosted by the noteworthy Sara Schaefer) was cancelled last year after two seasons, we see great things in her future. After all, she's one of the few comedians who can cram 10 jokes into a couple of minutes and still find a way to roll into each one in a completely effective way.
Moshe Kasher
As an author and playwright, there's no doubt that Moshe Kasher is a smart dude. And not to gush, but his "French Clown" bit is a work of genius. From the absurd premise, use of planted hecklers, and effective build to the final joke, it's definitely a bold closer, not to mention a completely unique skit to throw into a stand-up routine. You might have seen the "French Clown" on Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail, but before that, it was part of Kasher's Live in Oakland stand-up special, which, if you haven't seen, you have to watch. It's available to stream on Netflix now.
Jenny Slate
With the recent release of Gillian Robespierre's Obvious Child, starring Slate, she's definitely more on people's radar than ever before. However, her smaller roles, such as Mona Lisa Saperstein on Parks and Recreation and Liz on Kroll Show, have given Slate a solid fan base. Her stand-up, much like her character's in Obvious Child, is deeply personal and just about as honest as you can get, which, in her case, is a recipe for hilarity.
Hannibal Buress
You might know Hannibal Buress from his boy-toy role on Broad City. But if you saw his stand-up at last year's Oddball Comedy Tour (you know, when it actually came to Phoenix), you know his stand-up is killer, too. His mellow demeanor and sharp, witty observational humor complement each other in a totally unexpected and entertaining way. He wrote for both Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock, but we're glad he stayed behind the mic for the most part.Next Page

More Things Your Shoe Salesman Won't Tell You
1. Leave your emotional baggage at the door. If you're angry at your kids or your spouse or your job, it's not our fault. Don't take it out on us.
2. If we come up to you and say "Hello" or "Can I help you?" don't get defensive. We're not trying to hustle you. We're doing our job. And sometimes we're just being friendly. Men especially are afraid they're being trapped.
3. Don't return a shoe and claim it hasn't been worn when it has. We can tell.
4. Don't blame us if you walk five miles a day on asphalt and your feet are sore—especially if you're wearing those pumps you bought in L.A., where nobody walks.
5. We don't mind getting you five or ten pairs of shoes—that's our job—but it would be nice if you walked out the door with at least one pair.

Goldman Sachs has installed as its first regional chairman in Beijing a banker who set up a business with partners including jailed insider trader Raj Rajarathnam and on-trial former Goldmanite Rajat Gupta.
The bank has hired back Mark Schwartz, who started an investment firm in 2006 with bankers including the two men called Taj Capital Partners Asia. But from having big plans to hire 50 staff and invest $2bn in hedge funds and private equity, the project was scaled back by the end of that year. Goldman said Mr Schwartz left before Taj started trading.
Rajarathnam is now serving time for insider trading and Mr Gupta is on trial for leaking tip-offs to him.
The role was only a minor part of Mr Schwartz's business activities since he first quit Goldman in 2001. His main roles since then have been at George Soros's hedge fund group and at investment firm MissionPoint Capital Partners.
He is to return to Goldman to replace J Michael Evans.
Faced by dwindling growth in Western markets, banks have increasingly been looking to shift their focus to the east.
Mr Schwartz, 57, left Goldman 11 years ago after enjoying a rapid rise through the ranks there since joining in 1979.

|[jira] Updated: (MAPREDUCE-1418) LinuxTaskController binary misses validation of arguments passed for relative components in some cases.
|Mon, 15 Mar 2010 14:00:27 GMT
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1418?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ] Hemanth Yamijala updated MAPREDUCE-1418: ---------------------------------------- Attachment: MAPREDUCE-1418.patch Attaching a patch implementing the changes. Details: - Fixed all the initialization calls (for user, job, task, log and distributed cache files) to call check_path_for_relative_components. - Modified the way in which error code was tracked and handled in the methods so I could return a relevant error code when relative components are found. - Added tests for all the conditions. For testing initialization of job, task and distributed cache, the approach followed is that we create the original directories and some dummy directories. Then we launch the task controller exe with some of the arguments tweaked to have relative components. We verify the call fails with an ExitCodeException with the right error code. For user and log initialization, I write a taskcontroller.cfg with relative paths in mapred local directories and hadoop.log.dir and verify the same failures. The latter approach is needed because passing relative paths in the command line arguments will not trigger the code path we want to exercise in these two cases. All task-controller tests are passing with this patch, as also test-patch. > LinuxTaskController binary misses validation of arguments passed for relative components in some cases. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-1418 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1418 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: security, tasktracker > Reporter: Vinod K V > Assignee: Hemanth Yamijala > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-1418.patch > > > The function {{int check_path_for_relative_components(char * path)}} should be used to validate the absence of relative components before any operation is done on those paths. This is missed in all the {{initialize*()}} functions, as Hemanth pointed out offline. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.

Hackers Find Root Access to Android G1
Hackers of the XDA Forum found a simple hack to gain access to root privileges on the Android platform of G1 mobile phones.
The result is the potential of installing and using native Linux applications on the G1 and messing things up in the process.
Cause of the problem is a loophole in the Android PTerminal application. Using it to start a telnet daemon while in the system directory and then telneting from your PC into the phone's IP gives access to root, whereby all havoc can be raised.
The interesting thing is that the Android sandbox itself includes no Linux applications. Moreover, you develop applications using Dalvik VM, a virtual machine resembling Java VM that normal Java compilers don't know how to deal with.
Warning: Don't try this hack at home. Forum posters caution not to reproduce the hack unless you're absolutely sure about what you're doing. There's a risk of transforming the mobile phone into a useless brick or losing your work with the next Android update.

If you have questions about Audi or our products but are not a journalist, please contact our customer service department at:
Audi is further expanding its g-tron fleet. The Audi A5 Sportback g-tron, alongside the A3 Sportback g-tron and the A4 Avant g-tron, is now the third model that customers can run on a choice of climate-friendly Audi e‑gas, natural gas (CNG) or gasoline.
Basic information
The new Audi A5 and S5 SportbackThe emotional design of a coupé and the functionality of an Avant are well matched – the new Audi A5 Sportback* demonstrates this particularly elegantly. Its powerful, flowing silhouette makes it a truly aesthetic product with abundant space inside. Beneath its skin, notably impressive traits of the five-door coupé include a newly developed suspension, high-performance drives and innovative infotainment solutions. The way that various driver assistance systems intelligently interact points ahead to the age of piloted driving. The weight reduction compared with the predecessor model is as much as 85 kilograms (187.4 lb). * The fuel consumption and emission values of all models available on the German market and named in this text are listed on the last page of this basic information.
Recent Press releases
The new Audi A5 and S5 Sportback - design meets functionalitySeven years after the birth of the A5 Sportback*, the new version now makes its appearance. The five-door coupé blends elegant, emotional design with high functionality and abundant interior comfort. The family-friendly car is perfectly connected and offers the latest infotainment features. Plus, the second generation comes with a completely reengineered suspension, high-performance drives and innovative driver assistance systems. The S5* takes to the road with a new six-cylinder turbo engine developing a mighty 354 hp and 500 Nm (368.8 lb-ft). In a new departure, the A5 Sportback is also available as a bivalent g-tron*, which customers can run on either Audi e-gas, natural gas or gasoline.

After eating this bar I felt bloated all day since Chia Seeds should be soaked in liquid before consumption. I do not recommend this bar since I think its better to soak chia seeds in rice milk or water in advance and mix it with a fruit instead.

The Arctic-like conditions across much of the UK were so bad this weekend last year that London's Brent Cross shopping centre had to be closed on the Saturday.
But the weather was forecast to be more favourable for shopping this weekend, which is likely to result in many retailers posting healthy comparable sales – for these two days at least.
Unfortunately, this is likely to be a rare ray of sunshine in what has been a gloomy "golden quarter" – when chains typically make about 40 per cent of their profits – for many retailers. In the face of a brutal consumer slowdown and unseasonably warm weather, many retailers have been forced to discount heavily at the expense of profit margins to entice customers through their doors.
Andrew Murphy, the retail director at John Lewis, says: "For the wider high street, the gap between the winners and losers will be more pronounced than ever this year. The sales numbers will only tell part of the story and more interesting will be what people have had to sacrifice to get to that level of sales."
John Lewis is likely to be among the winners this Christmas, but it is a rare beast. Christine Cross, the chief retail adviser to the accountancy firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, said she expects non-food sales, both in terms of value and volumes, to be lower this Christmas on last year. "Overall, I think retail sales will be down on last year overall, with the exception of flagship shops in London which are going gangbusters at the moment."
A number of non-food retailers are already showing signs of distress. For instance, Barratts Priceless collapsed into administration this month, putting nearly 4,000 jobs at risk, and the lingerie chain La Senza has hired a restructuring team at KPMG in a desperate bid to survive.
But troubled chains can be found across the sector from Blacks Leisure, the outdoor specialist that put itself up for sale on 7 December, to Peacocks, the discount fashion chain that has debts of £240m. Robert Clark, the senior partner at Retail Week Knowledge Bank, says: "I think there will be the usual four or five [administrations] by the end of January and then the next ones around the March rent day."
A further headache this year is that Christmas Day falls on a Sunday. This has intensified the game of chicken retailers always play with consumers about when to go on sale, and means that many shoppers, particularly men, will leave their shopping to the last minute.
Jim McCarthy, the chief executive of Poundland, the single-price retailer, says: "I think that people are not buying yet. It is a little bit slower than it was last year so far. People perhaps feel comforted that they have an extra [Saturday] to shop."
He adds: "UK consumers are resilient, and they will be determined to have a good Christmas. But I think the purchases they make will reflect their needs. They will not be as free with their spending as they were previously." However, Mr McCarthy says Poundland has delivered like-for-like sales growth "throughout the year".
Though the next week is important for most retailers and an 11th-hour stampede of shoppers is likely, the writing is already on the wall for both successful and ailing chains.
Dave Forsey, the chief executive of Sports Direct, which has been doing sparklingly well, says: "You know halfway through December how Christmas is going to be." Despite being up against a tough comparable performance of a football World Cup in 2010, Sports Direct grew its pre-tax profits by 0.3 per cent to £100.3m over the 26 weeks to 23 October, on total sales up 8.4 per cent to £888.6m.
Struggling chains, however, might not find buyers waiting in the wings – as they have in recent years – after calling in administrators. Ms Cross of PwC says: "I think it is going to get tougher for the weaker retailers. In 2008, 2009 and 2010 there were plenty of buyers who were willing and able to take a medium-term view on distressed assets. Today, few investors are willing to take such a risk."
It also appears that the downturn is driving a further wedge between the performance of retailers in London and the South-East, and those in the provinces, particularly in areas hit by public-sector job losses. Ms Cross adds: "Not only does there appear to be a North/South divide but also an East/West divide, with Bristol and its surrounding areas, and Wales finding the going tough. In contrast, trading in the South-East is better."
However, there are plenty of retailers, including the fashion group Next, Kingfisher – which owns the DIY chain B&Q – and luxury players such as Mulberry and Burberry, which continue to grow profits.
Indeed, Mr Murphy at John Lewis says the downbeat view of high street trading has been overdone. He says: "Our sense is that as we have come into December, things have picked up. I think some of the predictions of the most extreme prophets of doom and gloom will be a bit wide of the mark."
Furthermore, after at least three years of austerity Britain, many retailers have made huge strides in trimming their costs, paying down debt, improving products and whipping their online operation into shape.
In fact, the burgeoning growth of online can be clearly seen in John Lewis' latest figures. The group's total sales rose by only 2 per cent to £123.4m in the week 10 December, boosted by three new shops. But this did not include its online sales, which rocketed 20 per cent over the period. Website sales now exceed those at its flagship shop in Oxford Street, London, by more than 80 per cent.
As for next year, much will depend on whether the eurozone sovereign debt crisis deepens and how this affects the UK economy, as well as what happens to unemployment and inflation. Optimism is in short supply, but there are some who point to widespread forecasts that inflation is expected to come down next year, helped by lower cotton prices and the sector passing the anniversary of the rise in VAT to 20 per cent.
Mr Clark says: "I think it has got as bad as it is going to get. January and February will be really tough but after Easter it might get a bit better and then the Diamond Jubilee and Olympics will engender a feelgood factor that should encourage people to spend a bit more."
But Mr McCarthy says: "My own view is that it is probably more likely to be 2014 before people start to feel more confident."
Taking The Long View
UK's senior shopkeepers see cause for optimism
"The next three weeks are important for lots of retailers. That week after Christmas is very important becausethat's when retailers [start to] clear their stock. Money is tighter at the moment and consumers are being much more selective."
Brian Brick, Chief executive, Moss Bros
"I think people will have a good Christmas but that will centre on food and drink rather than lots of very expensive presents. People have decided to cut back a bit. Next year is going to be tougher than 2011."
Jim McCarthy, Chief executive, Poundland
Struggling stores
Shops that may have reason to fear the future
Blacks Leisure: Has debts of £36m and forced to seek buyer after shareholders balked at cash call. Mountain Warehouse and Go Outdoors, among others, could bid for part or all of the business at a knock-down price.
Game: Warned on profits in November and has called in restructuring team at Deloitte. The City expects Game to post a loss of £12m for the year to 31 January.
Peacocks: Plans debt-for-equity swap with Goldman Sachs and mulling closure of up to 200 shops. The group, which has 611 Peacocks and 394 Bon Marche shops, has debts of £240m.
HMV: Shares at 3.9p, debts of £170.7m and latest sales down by 15.1 per cent. In its interim results tomorrow, HMV will say if its focus on selling technology products, such as headphones, has paid off.
La Senza: The lingerie chain, which has 158 UK stores, has hired a restructuring team at KPMG. It employs 2,600 staff and delivered sales of £140m last year but its future could be in jeopardy.Reuse content

Artist's rendering of E-ELT. European Southern Observatory/L. Calcada
Groundbreakings are usually sedate affairs, with dignitaries shoveling out ceremonial scoops of dirt in advance of actual site preparation for construction.
Not so when it comes to laying the foundation for the biggest optical/infrared telescope in the world.
PHOTOS: ALMA: New Jewel of the Atacama Desert
On Thursday, part of the summit of Cerro Armazones, a 10,039-foot (3,060-meter) high mountain in northern Chile, was blasted off, creating a plateau for construction of Europe's Extremely Large Telescope. The explosion, designed to obliterate nearly 1 million tons of rock, was expected to reduce the mountain's height by 131 feet (40 meters.)
With its 129-foot (39.3-meter) diameter, multi-segmented primary mirror, the telescope, known as E-ELT, is designed to tackle a wide variety of challenging astronomical studies, including attempts to image planets beyond the solar system.
PHOTOS: Herschel's Coolest Infrared Hotshots
Astronomers expect E-ELT to produce images 16 times sharper than the orbiting Hubble Space Telescope. The observatory will use advanced optics to compensate for atmospheric distortion.
"The E-ELT will allow astronomers to reach deeper into space, further back in time and more intimately into the workings of the universe than any other visible- to infrared telescope ever built," said deputy project scientist Aprajita Verma, with Oxford University, in a statement.
"We can expect breakthrough advances and new discoveries with the E-ELT," Verma said.
Construction is expected to be finished in 2023.

I came to Debby with a mound of mistakes through my divorce. She had to undo so many of my mishaps and explained everything in plain English. She let me know all my options, both good and bad, and all she asked of me was to be prepared.
The preparation before trial made me feel confident (although horribly nervous and scared) and I was able to answer the cross examanitation without any surprises at all.
The trust was earned right away and everything from that point forward was only about winning the case!!
The level of trust I have in recommending Debby Mackoy is 100%. I owe so much to her and her entire law firm. They have helped me in so many ways and I cant begin to express my gratitude!!

Debbie was an outstanding atorney. I battled my ex husband for years and she became more than an attorney, she looked out for my best interest. She gave me my life back and there is no price tag for that!

Case Conclusion Date: 02.09.2010
Practice Area: Child custody
Outcome: Trial court award of custody was reversed.
Description: Tonya Hill successfully challenged the district court's grant of custody of her two minor children to Terrie Sherman. Sherman is the maternal grandmother of the two minor children. The Court of Appeals concluded the district court failed to properly apply a presumption favoring custody with the natural parent, and that the record did not support the determination that the grandmother was a statutory "interested third party" under Minnesota Statute Section 260C.03. The Court of Appeals reversed the award of custody to Terrie Sherman and restored full legal and physical custody to Ms. Hill.

Affective Influences on Evaluative Processing

The past three decades have seen considerable debate about affect's influence on judgment. In three experiments, following manipulations of incidental, integral, and cognitively based affect, positive affect results in more efficient processing while negative affect appears to make judgments both less efficient and more effortful. Affect's influence is inferred from the consistency of participants' responses and the pattern of the positive-negative response latency asymmetry reported by Herr and Page, in which positive judgments appear to be relatively effortless and automatic while negative judgments require effortful and controlled processing. Positive affect reduced or eliminated the asymmetry while negative affect exacerbated it. Affect's influence appears consistent with a view of positive affect-induced processing efficiency.

We also talked about things and I'm feeling much better about the vacation once again. I think we'll have a good time and it will be good for both of us. Also, as much as I'm going to miss Sean, I think that will be good too as sometimes I feel I need to miss people, and being over each other too much can become a problem... Especially online.
When living together you can be doing different things (one person reading, the other watching TV, for instance) and still be "together" (in the same room, talking every so often, etc), while online you tend to have to focus on the talking, so I feel you get overcrowded faster, in a way? Like, when you're together, you can't really decide to take a walk together or anything like that, you're stuck in front of the computer...
I'm not even sure what my point is anymore, but I feel it will be good to get out of town, and also to see Sean less, so that I get a chance to miss him, but also a chance to do things without him and tell him about them.
I guess sometimes I just feel like going away from some people so I can appreciate them more when I come back. That must sound silly, but it works for me.
