#Romantic idea to enjoy this summer:
"Go to the beach on a cloudy day. Walk the shoreline, picking up shells. Have a picnic while watching the waves."
One minute, Hattie Williams is in a museum, sketching a gold necklace that belonged to Hatshepsut, first female Pharaoh of Egypt; and the next, she's lying in a room too archaic to be the museum, with a breathtakingly handsome, half-naked man named Senemut bending over her.
Hattie soon discovers she's been thrust into the body and life of Hatshepsut, with no way back to her own time. Tuthmosis, the heir to the throne, hates her; the High Priest of Amun and the commander of the army want to kill her and Tuthmosis; and the best bathroom facilities in the country are the equivalent of a cat-box.
To make matters more difficult, she's falling helplessly in love with Senemut, and soon, she's not sure she even wants to return home. To protect Tuthmosis from assassination, the lovers arrange to put Hattie on the throne. But, what should she do when she suddenly finds herself, an obscure artist from Chicago, crowned ruler of all Egypt?
Buy links:Tirgearrpublishing
Tom laughed, then left her alone. As soon as his footsteps died away, she flipped open her sketch pad to a clean page and set it on the table next to the necklace. Before she tried again to imagine Hatshepsut's features, she wanted to make a detailed drawing of the collar.
Within half an hour, she had the broad outlines of the necklace faithfully reproduced on the paper. Yawning, she laid her pencil beside the tablet. Even the beauty of the necklace couldn't keep her awake forever. Maybe it was time to call it a day. She could duplicate the intricate hieroglyphs tomorrow.
No sooner had she decided to quit than the back of her neck prickled, and a warm breeze stroked her cheek. Not again! She whipped around, determined to catch the furtive watcher this time. Her left arm hit the partially open door, which promptly slammed shut.
Hattie reached for the doorknob and turned it, giving the door a jerk. It remained firmly closed. She jiggled the knob and pulled on it, but it was quite obviously locked. "Great!" she muttered. "Just what I need. I wonder how long that meeting of Tom's will last?"
Her mouth dropped open as a horrible thought occurred to her. What if Tom didn't return after the meeting? What if he went straight home? "Tomorrow's Sunday," she reminded herself grimly. "I might be stuck here in this…this broom closet for two days!" There was no one at her apartment to miss her or report her absence—not even a dog to bark and alert the neighbors.
Hattie banged on the door. "Is anyone there? Let me out!" She shouted and beat on the door with her palms, but all was ominously silent. If someone had been watching her, they had no intention of helping her out of her dilemma.
At last, resigned to her fate, she returned to her sketchpad. "If I'm going to be stuck in here, I might as well finish my work," she murmured. "Tom's bound to come back—I'm sure he will." Her voice echoed unconvincingly in the dusty, claustrophobic room.
Picking up her pencil, she focused deliberately on copying the tiny hieroglyphics with extreme precision. Gradually, she became absorbed in her work and forgot her predicament. Minutes flowed by with the only sound in the room the scratching of her pencil on the paper.
At last, she completed the final symbol on her detailed drawing and set down her pencil with a twinge of disappointment. She was curiously drawn to the glittering possession of the ancient, yet strangely modern woman. Hatshepsut had ruled Egypt fifteen hundred years before Christ, at a time when women were considered no more important than servants or dogs. How had she managed it?
The vagrant breeze whispered past her face again, leaving a whiff of exquisite perfume in its wake. A rustle, like the caress of costly linen against bare skin, drew her attention. She felt a strong presence, though she knew she was alone in the tiny room.
"Touch it."
The words were so faint, Hattie wasn't sure she'd actually heard them.
"Who's there?" she asked, though she didn't expect to get a response. The room was too small to hide anyone.
"Touch the necklace."
Hattie spun around, searching for the source of the barely audible words. "Tom, is that you? If it's you, I don't think this is funny! Open the door right now." She thumped it with her fist for emphasis.
There was no response.
Hattie turned back to the exquisitely fashioned falcon. Maybe it was her overworked imagination playing a trick on her, but the advice seemed sound. Perhaps if she touched the necklace, she could make a connection—psychic, empathic?—with the long-dead monarch. The necklace was strangely compelling, like a long forgotten yet treasured memory.
She reached out slowly, cautiously. As her fingertips gently grazed the golden bird, an electric shock pulsed through her and a sudden wave of dizziness sapped her strength.
"Come to me," the ghostly voice whispered, stronger now. "Come to me. I have need of you."
The sweet, cloying scent of incense filled Hattie's nostrils, and flashes of light exploded behind her eyes. Her vision blurred; she felt as if she were reeling, falling down a long, dark tunnel. Gasping, she reached out blindly for something, anything, to steady herself. Her fingers skimmed across the surface of the table and fastened around the necklace. Clutching it, she fell heavily to the floor as everything went black.

Even a three-goal performance from Kara Burke (Dulaney) wasn't enough for the No. 11 Loyola Maryland women's lacrosse team as No. 2 host Syracuse scored the last five goals and won in overtime, 14-12, on Saturday.
The Greyhounds (15-5) trailed for most of the game until going on a 5-0 run in the second half for a 12-9 lead. The run started with free-position goals by Annie Thomas (John Carroll) with 18:26 left and by Burke 1:13 later.
The Orange (18-2) answered as Alyssa Murray scored two of her game-high four goals during the run. Syracuse's Kayla Treanor tied the score at 12 to force overtime with 41 seconds left. In the extra period, Katie Webster scored the go-ahead goal with 4:14 left and Liz Harbeson (Severn) added a goal with 1:52 remaining.
Salisbury 13, York 6: Shannon Carta (South River) had four goals and the host Sea Gulls (18-1) claimed their 14th Capital Athletic Conference championship by beating the Spartans (14-4).
Stevenson 13, Messiah 12: Carli Bafford (Francis Scott Key) scored her only goal, the game-winner with 2.4 seconds left, as the visiting Mustangs (13-5) claimed the Commonwealth Conference championship, beating the host Falcons (11-7).

Virgin Mobile intros a blank-slate smartphone plan you can customize any way you like
Next month, Virgin Mobile USA will offer a new, prepaid smartphone plan that is really dozens of different potential plans rolled into one. It can be an emergency plan with just the bare minimum of minutes necessary to keep your phone number active. Or it could be a data-centric plan loaded up with gigabytes.
It could become a social messaging plan, allowing unlimited tweets(s twtr) and Facebook(s fb) posts, or it could turn your phone into a connected digital music player with no restrictions on audio streaming.
Virgin, which is owned by Sprint(s s), is calling the program Virgin Mobile Custom, and it will be available starting August 9 exclusively at Walmart(s wmt). The plan is limited to just three sub-$130 Android phones at launch: the ZTE Emblem and the LG Pulse and Unify. But Virgin aims to extend to other devices in the future, Sprint prepaid group President Dow Draper told me in an interview.
The high degree of customization comes from ItsOn, a company that specializes in next-generation carrier billing and policy. Some of you may already be familiar with ItsOn from its now defunct virtual operator Zact, which used the same customization tools in its plans. Zact was always intended as a showcase for ItsOn's technology, and in that sense it accomplished its mission. Sprint recently signed a multi-year deal to license ItsOn's service.
At the heart of Virgin Mobile Custom is an Android app, which can be used to set up a plan and tweak it at any time. According to Draper, a customer could select 1000 text messages initially, but in mid-billing cycle downgrade it to 500 messages. The customer would then be refunded for the difference, he said.
Voice minutes, messages and megabyte buckets can all be selected separately and they can be applied to individual phones or shared across five lines in a family plan. The app also comes with parental controls that can be used to finely tune the amount of talking, texting and surfing allowed on each phone.
The most interesting elements of Custom in my mind, however, are the app-specific add-ons. To tack on unlimited social networking – meaning apps like Facebook and Twitter wouldn't count against you data plan – cost $15 a month. If you only Twitter regularly, you could buy a Twitter-specific add-on for $5 a month. Draper said other add-on choices include an unlimited music streaming option and an unlimited navigation option.
We've already seen T-Mobile go this route with its Music Freedom program, but these kind of toll-free zero-rated app plans are starting to pop up around the world. They're an intriguing — though controversial — way for carriers to sell data in units more meaningful to the average consumer than the gigabyte.
Virgin will release more pricing details on the plan when the program launches next month.

zizek and linksfaschismus
I'm not sure there's a clearer index of the basic intellectual dysfunction of the anglo-american theoretical left than the persistent popularity of Zizek and his work. The dysfunction is this: rather than conceive of themselves as participants in an on-going conversation, a-a theorists see themselves as the passive recipients of truths formulated elsewhere, generally on the continent. These passive recipients then apply these truths as they will – questioning them, revising them, arguing with them, developing one's one alternative or oppositional versions and takes is not really part of the bargain. Theory is something, in the end, that happens elsewhere – not here.
Unthinking acceptance of the arguments of those deemed to be the master theorists has to be behind their continuing popularity. How else could one square the fact that individuals otherwise engaged in democratic activism, say, line up for hours to hear Zizek give one of his whistlestop talks at Birkbeck? Or those out on the streets in defense of state-funded education return to their rooms to work on translations of Badiou?
At any rate, there's an incredibly sensible piece by Alan Johnson on Zizek and his fascist tendencies up at Jacobin. Here's a bit from the beginning:
Mark Lilla in his book The Reckless Mind predicted that the "extraordinary displays of intellectual philotyranny" that disfigured the twentieth century left would not simply disappear just because the wall had fallen. So it has proved. Since 2000, Žižek has established his "New Communism" on two foundations. First, a system of concepts – Egalitarian Terror, the Absolute Act, Absolute Negativity, Divine Violence, the Messianic Moment, the Revolutionary Truth-Event, the Future Anterieur, and so on. Second, a human type and an associated sensibility – that ideologized and cruel fanatic, contemptuous of morality and trained to enormity that Žižek calls the "freedom fighter with an inhuman face." In his passive-aggressive way, Zikek has even admitted what this so-called New Communism amounts to: "[Peter] Sloterdijk even mentions the "re-emerging Left-Fascist whispering at the borders of academia,' where, I guess, I belong."
Žižek's philosophy is, to be blunt, is a species of linksfaschismus. This is true of its murderous hostility to democracy, its utter disdain for the 'stupid' pleasures of bourgeois life, its valorization of will, ruthlessness, terror and dictatorship, and its belief in the salvific nature of self-sacrificial death.

it's interesting how he tends to avoid the routine hatchet-jobs that the liberal press dishes out to other prominent leftists. Did Johan Hari ever go near him? Or is Zizek safely cushioned by their 'lifestyle' pages to peddle blood libel about Gypsies, schoolyard rape jokes, plagiarised film 'theory' and the comforting myth that hey… white Christian guys really are the master race!
That he's on TV (and movies) so often doesn't come from any 'authority' he has on a subject. His op-eds are as ignorant and bigoted as any other in the British press. He's a brand – an easy to remember name pulling the punters. What for, I'm not sure. His 'theories' are Lacan-for-Beginners (already tiresome and done-to-death in Anglo-American academia) with dollops of mystic race-destiny. He was as dismissive of 'reality-based' leftists as Donald Rumsfeld (forget the facts – watch the movie!). He's as energetic as Tony Blair when it comes to chiding the fuddy-duddy old left. He's also very vocal against those criticising the US or Israel; and somewhat Hitchens-esque when it comes to Islam. He sure loves carpet bombing and genocide too – the spittle overwhelms him when he's gesticulating over mass murder. As 'contrarian' as page 3 in the Sun, and just as numbing.
He's an unfunny joke – but a very unpleasant one. That so many cite his fascistic gibberish as 'authoritative', says more about a widespread lack of 'critical theory' than anything else. If anything, he's done an awful lot to wind down and bastardize post-war philosophy, film studies, cultural studies, and political theory. His influence on the supposed left has been disastrous. Read any of his books and they're basically about nothing, with a bunch of inappropriate pop-cult references and BBC headlines to keep lazier brains happy. His self-reproducing (well, they all seem to despise nature and femininity) children follow a similar schtick. Criticism for people without critical faculties, and enough ambition to justify that lack. But hey, a brand's a brand. It's not just TV, it's HBO. Sophistication for the stupid has become hegemonic in recent years. It's the only way to crack the mainstream now. Enjoy your symptom indeed…
"Did Johan Hari ever go near him?"
Astonishingly, yes: http://www.newstatesman.com/film/2007/04/slavoj-zizek-intellectual
I see someone spotted Hari's google churnalism in that 2007 comments box.
Hand the Zizzer over to Laurie Penny now… it'll be like Hannibal and Clarice! Whoever eats the first brain, wins.
Your not fit to wipe the spittle from his shoes.
You evidently have mucho experience doing so. Hope he didn't sneeze too many 'cogeys' into your hair…
Does he tip?
y is not able to elaborate a reasonable defense of her objet petit a(sshole).
You'd think when it came to an 'academic' (I know, I know) this would be expected.
I suppose thanks to glorious Comrade Zizek we are no longer beholden to such bourgeois standards.
The personal attacks on this and other blogs merely bear witness to the fact that none of you clowns are capable of producing a serious philosophical challenge to Zizek.
He has his own reasons for presenting his ideas in the manner that he presents them and regardless of what you may think of his style he has clearly been succesful in encouraging a broad range of people into examining philosphical ideas.
Perhaps if you could refrain from petty jealous sniping and engage with his work on a more theoretical level this would be more productive for you.
Ah yes – 'jealous'.
Keanu Reeves can't act – 'jealous'. Rupert Murdoch is a gangster-oligarch – 'jealous'. Hitler was an evil mass murderer – 'jealous'. And so on.
As for 'serious philosophical challenge' – err, not really much need for that. It's quite simple. Justifying anti-Gypsy lynch mobs, demanding the bombing of Serbia, pretending the French 'liberated' Haiti, slobbering on TV about state terror, telling audiences of white people that racism's OK, or that Gaza's nothing for Israelis to worry about (because it could be worse – they could be living among savage Africans!) – it's just wr-wr-wrong. As plain as the (brown) nose on your face.
Ditto his cod-mystical Hegelian bullshit about the sublime 'event' that will suddenly carry us off to the big commie heaven in the sky (until then – do nothing, comfy smug hipster audience!). Or similar bullshit about regaining the 'European Christian legacy' (ie. 'white' if you're supposedly an atheist communist) of his gynophobic psycho hero St. Paul. I don't need to 'engage' with his gibberish any longer – hasn't he manufactured enough reactionary dimwits?
Now go and trade black-penis/rape jokes with your guru. And before you return, make sure you clean his cogeys out of your hair… if you have any of course.
I'm interested in the use this jealousy argument.
As a way of introduction I'm still smarting from the Tory's 'your just jealous' from the early nineties… Well I had got over it until they got back in power, and I was unfortunate enough to hear it again.
But I'm older and more grizzled now.
I do believe these chaps are 'resentful'.
Jealousy implies a frustrated desire to be with, attain, or even to be, the object of desire.
This does not seem to be happening here.
Resentfulness occurs when one is fucked off because some cunt has taken away what one already had.
Please understand the difference.
Everyone else please excuse the vernacular, I am rather upset with the current state of affairs, what what.
Here's a potted inventory of the sweating fascist's bullshit, with quotes that definitely are in his books:
Hardly a journal that that seeks to dig out racism and fascism from every corner, either. But it's there – in his crass public statements, his rather pre-WW2 fixation on 'the Jewish question' (deflected with a very 'po-mo' apologia for Zionism when it suits a given audience), his racialised promotion of Europe's threatened 'Christian heritage' (EDL-meets-Lacan), his Victorian attitudes to homosexuality, his Janus-faced statements on US torture (after all, with 9-11 "WE (?) are the victims now!"), his "nigger" jokes, his comparison of 'foreign' neighbours with unhealthy consumer goods, his over-riding glee at mass bloodshed – and ongoing admiration for card-carrying Nazi philosophers.
I don't give a fuck how many fans he has, or who fools themselves into thinking that this constitutes 'left-wing' thought, beyond marketable name-dropping and shelf displays. If it talks like it and thinks like it, it is it. And 'it' is a fascist – and even 'jokingly' defines itself as such. Yes, he jokes and gesticulates and raises a smirk from the rubes; but then so did Mussollini.
Also, perhaps related to your Penny Potter post below, his slavering promotion of fascistic pop-cult bollocks – to the extent of substituting it for actual political struggle – represents one of the biggest cases of 'false consciousness' retarding the Left and strengthening the Right today. Zizek is as 'toxic' to socialism as black metal, Frank Miller comics/movies, CGI Ayn Rand parables, all-white wizard elites, and 95% of the other junk we're all expected to worship in the name of 'liberation'.
Now if you don't mind, I'm off to vomit on Zizek's (jack)boots. Just don't expect me to wipe them afterwards.
Schizo (? You do call yourself that, so hope it's acceptable):
I grew up in the 'Murdochcene' age, so the whole 'jealous' bollocks is familiar. 'Politics of envy' etc. And yeah, I'd be chuffed to get away with selling snake oil so I could marry Argentinian models, talk shit on TV and sell buckets of bullshit to a nervous, insecure academia. However, 'some cunt' is currently having a damaging – almost hegemonic – effect on Left 'thought' as it's currently sold. I may think Negri or Badiou have their fair share of BS, but they're not on the current Zizek level of "this is what it all means kids!" The opportunistic BEARD is a danger – not least for his fascist aspects. he needs flushing ASAP.
Another bit of 'speculative realism': Who exactly was he associating with during Yugoslavia's collapse? Claiming to be 'Leninist' while cheerleading the bombing of Serbia? While the U.S. had its eyes on a crumbling Soviet bloc, and may have been looking out for 'liberal' ideologues useful to their interests in the region? Who's reoccurring message is that the US ain't so bad, and its crap entertainment is arguably transcendent? Who suddenly became aggressively promoted as "the idea of communism" in this neoliberal/imperial age? Who – despite his lack of novel ideas – is promoted as the leading left theorist of our age? Are these questions too 'bourgouis' to address?
Just a thought. God forbid 'conspiracy theories' have any legs these days. That's just stuff that happened during the Cold War – pseudo-commies working for very un-commie agendas. Conspiracies like that don't happen anymore. Why, just read the news today – ridiculous…
Dear W.
I have to admit I was referring to the Tories as the proverbial voids (I refer to the Anglo Saxon meaning here) rather than Zizek, I take a softer line with Zizek, lest one become a beautiful soul, and label him a pied piper for the gullible; those who find him fashionable have as much responsibility for walking through his door and reading him uncritically, as he does for beckoning them in. However from what I have read of him and read of others commenting on him in academia proper, there are more than enough who are able to read Zizek critically and relatively open-mindedly to keep me happy. And speaking personally there are times he positively amuses me, whilst other times he enrages.
However I've got no time for defending him against a legitimate critical disagreement by others with blind loyalty and, as you stated, a politics of charges of envy, leave that to the right please. That was the reason for my tuppence worth.
ps schizo is fine, I believe I've earned the right to use the label as I choose, and happy for others to too, just don't use it as a label of control and oppression.
How is this specific to Zizek, and not part of the standard operating procedure of a-a academic philosophy? I.e. tackling "safe" questions such as "What would capital-P Philosopher x have said about y" or, even more safely, 'What did x 'really mean' when he said z", rather than attempting to get at the underlying, dangerous questions oneself. Acceptable candidates for x are either 1) dead or 2) foreign, i.e. outside the direct peer group. Bonus points for 3) obscure and edgy…
(The standard snark here would be the comparison with science: how many physicists do you see working on an exegesis of what Newton might have said about, say, the cosmic microwave background? But of course this is just because science has an external source of legitimacy, so the sociology of the field works out differently.)
Correction: "a-a academic philosophy" is not who we are talking about, as that would be mainly analytic philosophy, which does not so much have this particular problem. It has others…
"For this reason, it was important to uphold the "celebrity" status of figures like Badiou and Žižek: a movement with superstars has staying power. After all, there wouldn't have been eighty people in the audience, let alone eight hundred, if it weren't for these celebrities, a fact that speaks to one of the more troubling contradictions in the current world of ideas: that though theory was ostensibly about rejecting priority and hierarchy, origin and personality, patriarchal organization and filiation, no field or discipline is so thoroughly defined by a system of stars and acolytes, great men and those who would be great men, as theory is today and has been for quite awhile."
ah, I see you saw this a long time ago…
This is so funny. It is the most outrageous kind of comments/view bait I have seen.
Usually, on the internet, it goes like:
"apple computers are useless toys; those who use them are mindless zombies enchanted by apple's propaganda; Steve Jobs is a tyrant and a bastard.
Now, substitute "apple" with "continental philosophy;" "apple-fans" with leftist academics; Jobs with Zizek and… you had ethos post.
A tip of the hat to you for creating the first post that tries to use this form of www self promoting narrative through philosophy
"A tip of the hat to you for creating the first post that tries to use this form of www self promoting narrative through philosophy"
Ah the proud posturing ignorance of the Zizek fan. They think everything was invented the other week. Or didn't exist at all if it wasn't on TV.
I wonder how many of them grew up on farms? Someone should do a poll.
Calling Kaspar a self promoter, as if inferring that Zizek was anything other…
This is the man who produces books which he admits are full of "bullshit", with only a few parts being "maybe OK", calls his audience "idiots", and whose only standard of worth for his own writing is that it is "selling very well".
Yes, you didn't think Comrade Zizek held you in any kind of esteem did you? This might be hard for you to hear, but he views you all with the utmost of contempt, and this years grain harvest isn't anywhere near as high as the figures say. Quick, pretend you were never here reading this anti revolutionary treachery, maybe you can sign up for the expedition to the Ukraine and swipe yourself something off the locals. Go Comrade! Let them eat critical theory!
Ditto to that – he's a salesman, a shuck. Like certain film-makers and comedians serving up offensive, cheap nonsense and winking to his audience that he's "not like that really – just highlighting a paradox!"
He's ideal for a generation who regard trash like Tarantino 'canonical'. He makes you feel good about the garbage you enjoy – 'guilty pleasures' are the essence of your comfy western being! "We white leftists" should shed that 'guilt' (?) and enjoy our rape jokes and racist terms! It's 'kewl', even if it is racist, misogynist, anti-semitic, homophobic and utterly devoid of substance or use. He literally re-writes history and misquotes people to make his 'point'. The Inglorious Basterd of 'theory' (I keep trying to find this 'theory', but he's had enough of my money, thanks).
His more eager audience members reveal more about Zizek than his cut'n' paste 'philosophy' could. As is the case with most fascistic pop-cult garbage.
I'm still suspicious regarding his 'emergence' during the break-up of Yugoslavia BTW. He's – just about – managed to conceal his highly questionable, but mostly shouted down, 'approaches' to various women (look it up). However, he may have very influential pals who find his hogwash very useful for undermining and retarding the 'actually existing left'. I wouldn't be surprised about anything regarding this creep. However, if he recommended nuking Libya I'm sure he'd still have 'Left' cheerleaders telling us what a cunning rhetorical move it is, and how the 'P.C. brigade' should sit back in awe at his genius.
This is why resentment is not ressentiment.
Ressentiment stems from the beautiful soul who identifies the source of their frustration in an others as opposed to he who is resentful but is perfectly aware that this is an understandandable reaction to an onslaught from those attempting to dominate.
Anger is a form of self-defence against attempts to have one's arena of discourse trivialised. Just as long as one realises one's anger is one's own not caused by another.
Why protestant shame is a more powerful form of control than catholic guilt.
So saying that if Zizek's ideology is pissing you off get together your shit and move your arse to a proper toilet.
Don't mean to be a policeman, but evenin' all.
Qlipoth killed Zizek
Zizek kills critical faculties.
But only 99% dead, for everything else there's Badiou
LOL – But is it the active part, I wonder?
Yes, but it comes in little pots that you keep in the fridge.
Of course some biologists, especially specialists of the intestine, would debate whether there is such a thing as active Badiou, for some it's just Badiou, all Badiou is just Badiou.
Of course I had a friend who travelled to India regularly and she recommended Coca Cola for Spivak belly. Of course Coca Cola destroys all Badiou good or bad, but at least it destroys the bad Badiou and therefore one has no ideology problems.
I mean we've all seen what happens when we put a dirty minted representation of exchange in a glass of Coca Cola over night, comes out all shiny next day.
Of course never put a Freudian nocturnal representation of narcissisic beauty in there, it'll dissolve to nothing.
Sod it put Coca Cola down your loo. That'll kill more than 99%. although if you want to patronise the producers you can always use Ubuntu, like Benhabib it will save at least 20% of those germs but we do have to keep our loos clean.
How is Žižek fascist and Aristotle isn't?
As Aristotle pointed out one can only take part in the polis, in the agora, if one has a property, a boundary around one's oikos, and one's character. As today that property relates to major shareholding, hedge funds etc we can all police each other under the dictum: there is no alternative. Thus one can no longer see the molar fascist wood for the molecular fascist trees.
ie one declares Zizek fascist merely through one's own fascist emotional blocks.
So hell, yeah, Aristotle is fascist too!
A millennium or two might make a wee bit of difference. However, Aristotle probably would have reckoned '300' was load of fascist trash too.
I often wonder at how little difference. Universal suffrage does not a democratic polity make. In many ways capitalism is closer to his 'Politics' than feudalism was. This may be why many Marxist scholars read Aristotle
As to '300', I would take your fascist trash and raise it to fascist, homo-erotic (yet for those unaware of the commercial use of such unconscious tendencies – hence fascist) trash. Those Spartans eh!

Uses a professional services setting to study the concept of factory focus. The rapid growth in the US of ambulatory surgery centres (surgicentres) provides an evolving illustration of focused factories in services. Because of the pressures of cost containment, most hospitals have segmented their surgical market, but have adapted their operations in a variety of ways. Some keep the inpatient and outpatient survery integrated in the same facility, while others choose a plant-with-a-plant or a separate facility. Information concerning costs, organizational structure, achievement of the advantages and disadvantages of differentiation from inpatient surgery, service times, waiting times, customer services offered, and future plans were provided by 54 hospital-owned ambulatory surgery centres. Despite a variety of structural arrangements, the responses were effectively classified by whether or not they shared operating rooms with inpatient surgery. Those who shared operating rooms reported significantly less achievement of the advantages and avoidance of the disadvantages of outpatient surgery. The shared facilities also reported longer waiting times, less patient contact and higher average facility charges, despite no significant differences in length of procedure nor volume of the seven most frequent procedures. Among the centre directors is the OR group, and 53 per cent favoured separation of the two surgical settings. All the directors with separated facilities favoured continued separation. The reasons given to justify integration emphasized economies of scale and safety, while those given for separation were customer-service-oriented.

IT is seemingly a categorical assurance given to parliament and as such it ought to be welcomed.
Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi told the Senate on Wednesday that the PTI government will not send Pakistani troops to Yemen, where a Saudi-led war has wrought devastation and caused a humanitarian catastrophe.
The foreign minister also shared with parliament a few details about his government's offer to help mediate in the conflict in Yemen.
According to Mr Qureshi, Iran has suggested it would welcome a Pakistani mediation role in Yemen, while implying that Saudi Arabia has not yet responded in a positive manner.
Separately, also on Wednesday, Prime Minister Imran Khan met the Yemen ambassador to Pakistan Motahar Alashabi and, according to media reports, told the envoy that Pakistan would continue to support the restoration of President Abd Rabbu Mansour Hadi's government. Therein lies a conundrum for Pakistan.
To be an effective mediator, Pakistan will perhaps require some semblance of neutrality recognised by all sides to the conflict.
However, because of the historically close ties between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, and the current Saudi leadership viewing Iran as an existential threat, Pakistan has thus far been able to signal a semblance of neutrality largely by resisting Saudi demands for Pakistani military participation in the Yemen conflict.
Furthermore, while Iran has now responded positively to both the PML-N and PTI governments' suggestion of Pakistani mediation, it is not clear if Iran believes Pakistan can, in fact, play a mediatory role, or if it is simply hoping to drive a wedge between the historical allies.
At its heart, what remains unknown is whether the major actors in the Yemen conflict see Pakistan as a credible potential mediator.
Perhaps, then, Pakistan ought to reach out diplomatically to other like-minded Muslim-majority countries with a stake in seeing the conflict in Yemen ended at the earliest and regional tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran reduced.
Eventually, a deal on Yemen at least could be reached under the auspices of the OIC if countries such as Pakistan, Malaysia and Indonesia work together.
Whatever the path taken, it is clear that the war in Yemen must be brought to an end at the earliest.
The humanitarian catastrophe and near-famine conditions in Yemen are intolerable in the 21st century, and are a direct result of Saudi-Iranian regional competition that is on track to cause further convulsions if not reined in with the help of the two countries' friends and allies.
The previous Pakistani parliament courageously staked out a neutral position on the conflict in Yemen; if the PTI government needs it, surely the current parliament will also assist in delivering a unified, consensus position on the conflict.
Whoever can mediate, whoever takes the lead, the Muslim world, the region and the world at large need the conflict in Yemen to end now.

Does your local library have access to any database or sites that could be helpful in your genealogical research? Many libraries subscribe to a variety of databases including magazine and journal articles, historical archives, etc. Of course you should find out what genealogical databases your library has access to, but there may be variety of other databases in the reference section that could provide useful to your research.
Nearby university libraries may be a gold mine as well. Even if they don't have a genealogy collection.

Divorce And Child Support Are Eviscerating Military Recruitment
R. Usher
These days, the film industry bemoans decreasing box office sales by crying about illegal downloads of movies. If all the major providers of peer-to-peer software had not been shut down, they might have a point.
Industries who think consumers are slaves to their products usually end up in this boat. The consumer goes elsewhere.
�Brokeback Mountain� has netted a paltry $4.9 million in box office sales, nearly identical to �Memoirs of a Geisha.� Both movies have been out for about two weeks. King Kong has earned twenty times more in only eight days of apish reincarnation.
Here is a wake-up call for Hollywood: Nearly one-fourth of viewers gave Brokeback Mountain an �F�, while 69.4% gave it an A, leaving no middle-ground. We can easily guess who these votes came from on both sides of this tin coin.
Golden Globe elites went into plebian parinirvana over the idea of two married cowboys rustling something more than livestock on the range. Monkeys go �ape� seeing themselves in the mirror, too. A �Gone With The Wind� this is not.
The business model for film distribution is changing rapidly in ways Hollywood is loathe to admit. With cable and satellite, viewers do not need to waste money going out to see movies they do not really want to see, out of sheer boredom. We can more easily surf cable to watch the best of the worst, in far more comfortable surroundings, with our favorite snacks just a few steps away. The box office and DVD rentals merely give us time to figure out what we really want to see.
Hollywood no longer has a monopoly on entertainment. The internet and video games are where celluloid ex-pats now reside.
Consumer dollar-votes are most instructive. The fish now know the difference between a real worm and a fake one with a hook on it. We are no longer addicted to seeing the latest insult to family values just so we can pretend we are hip while complaining about it at lunch.
entertainment will be an increasingly marginal market. Those who wish
to be successful in film and television will look to the great box
office hits, shows, and the legendary acts for new foundations for
the film industry.

A short history
with grate achievements
The creation of the company happens in 2011 during its members' training process at the International School of Theatre and Circus Arts CAU (Granada, Spain) where Claudia Ortiz, Carmine Piccolo and Francisco Caravaca first meet and decide to work together as an acrobatics trio.
Later, a fourth member, Luis Ayuso, joins the company as a clown and a technician and it is at that point where they start to develop their first show: "Somebody is unwanted here" whose premiere was held in La nave del Duende (Cáceres) in February of 2013. This show will be awarded several prizes like: Tafalla Va de Calle (Navarra), Certamen de Jóvenes Artistas Callejeros (Málaga), Premio Granajoven (Granada), Premio Giani Damiano (Italia), Pave d'Argent in Festival des Artistes de Rue (Vevey , Switzerland) and the third prize in Certamen Noctivagos (Oropesa).
With this show, Tresperté have traveled round Europe to countries like: Italy, Portugal, Switzerland, Austria and Germany and they have taken part in the most cutting-edge festivals of Spain and Europe such as: Fira Tárrega, FETEN, Fira Trapezi, TAC Valladolid, Umore Azoca Leioa, Feria de Palma del Río, Fira Bisbal de la Empordá, Circolmedo, Circada, Imaginarius (Portugal), Kulturbourse (Freiburg, Germany) …
In the year 2014, they add the Korean Teeterboard to their circus elements, which together with Acrobatics and Clown are still their power on stage. Under these conditions, their second show "Oopart: out of place artifact" is first staged at the Teatro Alhambra in February 2016, establishing the company as one of the most important circus companies of the Spanish contemporary circus scene and leading them to a quantum leap in their career. In less than a year, they have given more than 50 performances at the most popular festivals in Spain: Umore Azoka, TAC Valladolid, Palma de Rio, FETEN, Fira del circ al Carrer (La Bisbal d'Empordà) and FIET Baleares.… Moreover, they have been part of European arts fairs and have closed their tours in countries likeKorea, Belgium, France, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Austria, The Nederlands and Portugal. Oopart has been the most awarded show in the PACA Prizes. Furthermore, in 2017, Iván Monje recives the award "best original music FETEN" for his work in this project
In 2016 they also decided to take part of the project "Ludo Circus Show" with other companies of the south of Spain and start also touring with this show.
In 2018 Oopart is still succeding, and it win the Audience Award in Malabharía (Canary Islands). Then, the show travels to Germany and OOpart is awarded in th Internationale Kulturbörse Freiburg, with the Best Street Show.
The company is still training circus and theater for future works.
Luis Ayuso
In 2006, during college, he made his first incursions into the world stage, being trained in clown with Antón Valen and participating in the show El circo de la ciencia of Cia. La Escalera de Tijera.
After finishing his university studies, obtaining the title of Engineer of Telecommunications, he decided to turn his life and his professional life and he enrolled in the circus school and CAU Granada Theater in 2010, where he met the other members of the company. Therefore, if anything characterizes him, it is his versatility and ability to learn quickly.
In the circus school he focused on 2 main areas: theater with professionals like Antonio J. Gomez (El Gran Dimitri), Alessia Desogus, Emilio Gollanes and Larisa Ramos and juggling with Jose Luis Ruiz (Belga). After completing this training, he continued to work with this company. He started performing as musician and actor, playing accordion in the version for galas of Somebody here is unwanted. Later, when the company decided to take the step of developing a 50 minutes performance, he is included as an actor and technician of sound and light.
Besides continuing to work, he doesn't forget the need of training and decided to leave to Paris where he continued his studies with Philippe Gaulier theater in 2013.
Nowadays he is part of both casts shows of the company, the above mentionedSomebody here is unwanted and Oopart, and he keep learning and training in addition to photography work, web design and video-edition.
Claudia Ortiz
She started in the showbiz in 2004 with Karlik Dance Company where she got training in contemporary dance and also did some contributions for the staging of the company. During that period she also got involved in in the family company, Titereatro, as a pupperteer and did several replacements in many performances.
Then, during 2008 she met the circus, and after finishing college, began getting trainings and courses in several disciplines, especially air, until the year 2010 when she decided to enrol the CAU-Circus School of Granada. In this school she specialized as an agile acrobat in a trio group and here is where she met the partners with who a bit later they will stablish the company Tresperté.
Moreover, during that year she studied a master in Performing Arts at the University Rey Juan Carlos de Madrid simultaneously with the Circus School and she graduated in 2011.
During 2013 Claudia was working with the company Vaivén Circus while replacing the acrobat during the winter tour. Later, in 2014 she started with her fellows Tresperté training on the teteerboard, technique that they discover by themselves and trained in an autodidact way and also through courses in Belgium, place of the development of this technique. Currently she is still training and learning news techniques, and at the same time she is acrobat and producer of the company.
Paco Caravaca
He started in the professional world in 2006 as part of the cast of actors and artists of the company "La Carpa Theater". In this company he performed several shows, where he incorporated his knowledge in circus techniques such as juggling, acrobatics and balances.
His passion for the circus and juggling led him to train with internationally well-known artists among which include Miguel Solano "Mirco" who is specialist in Numerology and circus technics (Japan), Lorenzo Mastroprieto in handling hats (Italy), Mikel Ayala in handling and creation (Country Vasco), "The caneca" in aerobatic exercises (Basque Country) and Antonio Benitez "Antolio" in siteswaps and music (Argentina) among others …
In 2010 he began his professional education in the circus performing two years in Urban Arts Center "CAU" of Granada. There he specialized in juggling with José Luis Ruiz "Belgian" and as carrier with Miguel Moreno "Bolo". After the training period at the school he continued his acrobatic training at the University of Granada physical education, with Acróbatos club specializing in tumbling and trampoline. After several years of training teeterboard he decided to professionalize with specialists by carrying out several courses in Madrid (Spain) with Eduardo Lucas and in Belgium with Benjamin Eugene (Circo del Fuego).
In his theatrical training include passing hand of artists such as: Antoino J. Gómez (The Great Dimitri) Clown, Emilio Goyanes Physical Theatre (Laviebel), Adrian Swartein theater and circus (Circus Ronaldo), Pepa Diaz Clown ( the Ullen) and Paca Barrera street Theatre (Els Comediants)
Also mention your training in the world of dance with teachers like Celia Sako (Japan), Omar Meza (Mexico), Take Araujo (Brazil) and Fernando Hurtado (Spain) among others …
At school, with his teammates Luis Ayuso, Carmine Piccolo and Claudia Ortiz founded the company Tresperté Circo Teatro, where he has the role of artist and manager. In this project they all are involved since years, full of success and visiting and performing in the most important stages in Europe where they have been awarded nationally and internationally.
Carmine Piccolo (Angelo)
His beginnings toke place long time ago, in 2006, when he decided to travel to Spain for the first time. This trip would not be for long. Of course, but he did not know that once he started this path, he could not go back.
His training began around 2007 when he decided to start in the art of "failure" with Alexandre Coelho, clown and director. Immediately he got involved in creating labs with groups and communities and then he brought that to the stage. This process culminated with the creation of a solo piece entitled "Marcheseggiando", and he performed in several countries around Europe: Italy, France, Switzerland and Spain. That was the moment that he felt he wanted more and moving further.
In 2008 he started training in a acrobatics that belongs to INEF (Granada) with Miguel Marquez. That same year he won an Italian television show, "La Botola" where he received first prize with a number of juggling, the result of 7 years of self-training, and the he pushed himself to travel to Spain.
In the year 2010 \ 2012 he enrolled in the School of Circus of Granada (CAU) and it was the beginning of a comprehensive training and a development of other capacities such as clown, actor, and that brought him to specialize in acrobatics and Chinese pole. As culmination of a process and a result, the Company Tresperté Circo Teatro was born with a fascinating comedy entitled "There is someone missing", which traveled all around Europe such as Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Italy and Portugal.
After traveling and performing through all these years, he came back to training and in 2014, Carmine decided to adopt a new challenge: the "Korean teeterboard". For this reason he traveled to Madrid and there he toke some courses with Eduardo Lucas Muñoz in the Circus School of Carampa. Furthermore, he moved to Belgium for a short period of time to continue training. When he came back, he merged with a fusion of acrobatics and teeterboard, and he ended up with fresh and innovative results that finally toke into life the new show entitled "Oopart– A Story of a Setback". This is a very ambitious project and we can even consider it as the great performance of the company Tresperté.
At the same time, Carmine is also involved in the production of another show entitled "Ludo", along with seven other great Andalusian artists.

To install this package, run in Emacs:
M-x package-install RET cobol-mode RET
This file should not be confused with Rick Bielawski's cobol-mode.el (http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/cobol-mode.el), which this mode attempts to supersede. This COBOL mode features syntax highlighting for most modern COBOL dialects, indentation, code skeletons, rulers and basic formatting functions. Highlighting changes with the code format, which can be specified using the M-x customize menu. Installation: To install cobol-mode.el, save it to your .emacs.d/ directory and add the following to your .emacs: (autoload 'cobol-mode "cobol-mode" "Major mode for highlighting COBOL files." t nil) To automatically load cobol-mode.el upon opening COBOL files, add this: (setq auto-mode-alist (append '(("\\.cob\\'" . cobol-mode) ("\\.cbl\\'" . cobol-mode) ("\\.cpy\\'" . cobol-mode)) auto-mode-alist)) Finally, I strongly suggest installing auto-complete-mode, which makes typing long keywords and variable names a thing of the past. See https://github.com/auto-complete/auto-complete. Known bugs: * Switching source formats requires M-x customize settings to be changed, saved and cobol-mode to be unloaded then reloaded. * Copying-and-pasting content in fixed-format sometimes results in content being pasted in column 1 and spaces inserted in the middle of it. * The indentation code leaves a lot of trailing whitespace. * Periods on their own line are sometimes indented strangely. * String continuation does not work. Missing features: * Switch between dialect's reserved word lists via M-x customize (without unloading cobol-mode). * Allow users to modify easily reserved word lists. * Expand copybooks within a buffer. * String continuation (see above). * Allow users to modify start of program-name area.
