The Millennium & Dostoevsky: An Exchange
Joseph Frank, reply by Aileen Kelly
October 9, 2003 issue
Fyodor Dostoevsky; drawing by David Levine
I am grateful to Professor Aileen Kelly for her article on the fifth and final volume of my books about Dostoevsky's life and work [NYR, March 27]. As an admirer of her own writings on Russian literature, I am all the more gratified by her praise. Her critical remarks, however, touch on substantive issues of considerable importance regarding Dostoevsky, and are well worth discussing quite aside from my own self-defense.
Professor Kelly agrees that "Frank pulls no punches in conveying the nastiness of Dostoevsky's anti-Semitism and the tedious jingoism of his 'Russian idea'" as exhibited in his Diary of a Writer. But she faults me for not taking seriously enough the connection between the millenarian fantasies of his apocalyptic politics and his anti-Semitism. Drawing on Norman Cohn's great The Pursuit of the Millennium, she points out that in the Middle Ages such fantasies were linked with the most savage pogroms. In my case, however, I viewed the "grandiose predictions" of his dreams of a Russian world order, poisonously accompanied with anti-Semitism, as a "means of rescuing himself from despair as his country lurched from crisis to crisis" during the 1870s, thus giving it too narrow a significance.
Kelly believes that his anti-Semitism flowed intrinsically from his perfervid political millenarianism. Such millenarianism had already made its appearance during the 1860s, when he contrasted European society, riven by class conflicts, with a vision of Russia—and especially the Russian people—as endowed with the God-given task of creating a world of universal justice and harmony. Such millenarianism, in fact, was everywhere in the Russian culture of the time (Alexander Herzen included). But there is no anti-Semitism whatever in any of Dostoevsky's earlier articles. Why should it have surfaced so conspicuously only in the 1870s? This was the question I tried to answer.
How seriously and literally are we to take Dostoevsky's millenarian prognostications? Kelly rejects my view that for Dostoevsky the notion of a Kingdom of God on earth "presumably remained speculative and transcendent." She admits that he was "uneasy about the attempt to reconcile the rival ideas of the Kingdom of Heaven and an earthly paradise"; and she conscientiously refers to my analysis of The Idiot in a previous volume (No. 4), where the impossibility for Prince Myshkin to live in the world by the highest Christian ideals reveals the unbridgeable disparity between the realms of earth and heaven. But she prefers to disregard such evidence—though the testimony of art should be more compelling than any other—and refers to Dostoevsky's interest in two thinkers (Nikolay Fyodorov and Vladimir Solovyov) to support an opposite conclusion.
The first considered the task of mankind to be the material resurrection of the fathers by their sons in some mysterious science-fiction fashion. How one can consider such an idea to be anything but "speculative and transcendent" escapes me. Vladimir Solovyov is a more serious matter, and Dostoevsky was certainly attracted to his definition of "Russia's mission as [bringing about] the establishment of a theocratic Kingdom of God on earth." Kelly maintains that such a Kingdom in The Brothers Karamazov is seen as completely terrestrial, and refers to the discourses of Dostoevsky's spokesman Father Zosima as "hold[ing] out the promise of paradise as an imminent earthly prospect—a state of total harmony."
But Father Zosima, commenting on Ivan Karamazov's advocacy of Solovyov's theocratic ideal of the state turning into a church, does not accept this prospect as more than a visionary hope. For him, it is "ordained to come to pass," but only "at the end of the ages" (italics added), which of course may be tomorrow. Christianity teaches that many other extraordinary events are also ordained to occur at "the end of the ages," for example, the Second Coming and the resurrection of the dead (though these are not referred to here). What will take place only at "the end of the ages" surely cannot be considered "an imminent earthly prospect"; nor would the word "earthly" retain its ordinary meaning in such a context.
Kelly also considers me "mistaken" in remarking that "the passions aroused by the Russo-Turkish War" had brought Dostoevsky closer to identifying religion with nationality than in the past. For her, this identification was not due "to the political contingencies of the mid-1870s but to Dostoevsky's lifelong adherence to two ideas at once," that is, a supernatural universal religion on the one hand and a deep-rooted Russian nationalism on the other. Oddly enough, she herself cites the chapter in The Possessed (1871–1872) in which Shatov, who considers the Russians to be a "Godbearing people," admits that he does not yet believe in God—though he is striving to do so. Stavrogin therefore accuses him of reducing God to a "mere attribute of nationality," thus subordinating divinity to purely earthly concerns. However, nine years later Father Zosima declares in The Brothers Karamazov (1879–1880) that "whoever does not believe in God is not going to believe in God's people." Religion and nationality are brought much closer together here by Dostoevsky's spokesman; the two seem to have become identical, and I do not believe I am "mistaken" in pointing this out.
I am, however, in complete sympathy with Kelly's castigation of the unfortunate influence that some sections of Dostoevsky's Diary of a Writer have exercised on a number of the most obnoxious political movements of the past and present. But the justified revulsion aroused by this usage should not unduly color the actual trajectory of his life and the significance of his works. These dramatize the profoundest issues of Judeo-Christian culture, and are infused with a tragic human dimension that raises them far above the level of social-political polemic.
Joseph Frank
Aileen Kelly replies:
It is unfortunate that I have given Joseph Frank the impression that by insisting that Dostoevsky's messianic nationalism must be taken seriously as a component of his vision of the world, I am seeking to water down the image (conveyed so compellingly in Frank's five volumes) of Dostoevsky as a great defender of freedom against the encroachments of utopian ideologies. That was not my intention.
He sees me as reluctantly "admitting" Dostoevsky's doubts about the possibility of an earthly paradise, and regards it as "odd" that I should further undermine my case against him by citing his devastating passage on religious nationalism in The Possessed. This would indeed by puzzling if my argument were not based on the notion of "Two Dostoevskys": his notebooks and novels provide abundant evidence of a continuous inner dialogue on the possibility of a perfected human community—a struggle that was at least as agonized and as unresolved as those of the great seekers of his fiction. I regard the impact of the novel's dramatization of the dangers and delusions of utopian thought as in no way diminished by their author's inconsistency when he makes an exception for his own millenarian hopes.
Why, then, take these hopes seriously? Because the "other" Dostoevsky preached them with such infectious conviction.
Frank believes that I overemphasize this aspect of his thought. Such millenarianism "was everywhere in the Russian culture of the time." I presume he is referring to the conservative utopianism of the Slavophiles, and the radical intelligentsia's faith in the power of reason and socialist doctrines to transform human societies. But millenarianism in the classical sense—belief in imminent, miraculous, terrestrial salvation as the predestined culmination of history—was a much rarer phenomenon of the time, and Dostoevsky undoubtedly became its most influential proponent. Frank cites Alexander Herzen, the father of Russian socialism, as an instance of the same phenomenon. But there is no genuine comparison between Herzen's hope that the Russian peasant commune could be developed along socialist lines with the help of Western science and social theory (more a question of experimental social engineering than an example of the classical features of millenarianism) and Dostoevsky's belief, expressed in ever more extravagant terms from the mid-1850s, that the Russian people had a historical mission to bring about a reconciliation of all European nations in a new Christian world order. In retrospect, Herzen's hopes may have been utopian, but he was consistently anti-millenarian in his defense of the freedom and unpredictability of the human spirit against all forms of the belief that the historical process was leading to an imminent and predestined earthly salvation. Even socialism, he famously suggested, would one day come to be rejected as an outworn creed. Dostoevsky's reading of Herzen is said to have influenced his assault on historical determinism in Notes from Underground: but by then the other Dostoevsky had already begun preaching the predestined mission of the Orthodox Russian people to bring about Europe's rebirth.
Frank believes I am wrong to take such prognostications literally as an earthly hope, citing Father Zosima's comment that the Kingdom of God on earth will come to pass, "but only at the end of the ages." But millenarian thinking stresses the imminence of this final transformation: Zosima also suggests "we may have already reached the eve of its appearance"—a view that Dostoevsky expressed repeatedly in his notebooks and Writer's Diary of the mid-1870s, interpreting the Russo-Turkish conflict as the cataclysm from which this will emerge: "Now, for everyone in the world, 'the time is at hand.'" "The full Kingdom of Christ…will come to pass and it will be with us in Russia, perhaps sooner than anywhere else." Frank maintains that comments such as these do not refer to anything "earthly" in the ordinary meaning of the word. But if this is the case, what is the meaning? And then why, in his more self-questioning moods, does Dostoevsky express the fear that his vision of the transformation of the terrestrial world is incompatible with the Christian doctrine of the heavenly Kingdom of God?
Frank also finds it curious that I ascribe a literal meaning to the theories of Fyodorov, whose notion of an earthly paradise created by humans themselves so impressed Dostoevsky. He seems to be saying that because such visions are contrary to experience and common sense (a point on which we both agree), their proponents cannot have meant them literally. Surely this is no more true of Dostoevsky than it is of Marx, who was certainly not speaking of some transcendent world when he announced communism to be the answer to the riddle of history: "the true solution of the conflict between existence and essence…between freedom and necessity, between the individual and species."
Despite its dubious intellectual and moral credentials, Dostoevsky's messianism, like Marx's, must be taken seriously because of its effects in practice. Both varieties are deeply dangerous, lending themselves to the demonization of all those who are not seen as the chosen vehicles of history's movement to earthly salvation, such as the "enemies of the people" who were the objects of Stalin's Terror, or the Jews, the perennial scapegoats of Christian millenarianism. Although as Frank points out, Dostoevsky's anti-Semitism surfaced only in the 1870s, it flowed logically from his messianic nationalism. The role of Jewish financiers in the development of Russian capitalism was sufficient to make him resort to traditional clichés and to depict the Jews as the most menacing embodiment of the materialism that he believed to dominate Western culture and threaten the universal reign of the "Russian idea." A similar mixture of anti-Semitism and anti-Westernism is now observable on the contemporary Russian far right.
In summary, Frank believes that my insistence on Dostoevsky's messianic nationalism distorts "the actual trajectory of his life." But, as I wrote in my review article, entitled "The Two Dostoevskys," I am unable to accept the view that Dostoevsky's life followed by a single path. The evidence fits better with Tolstoy's description of him as "a man who was all struggle."

TIFFIN -- Poor free throw shooting cost the Heidelberg University men's basketball team an upset, as the team fell 89-85 in a matinee to Wittenberg University. Heidelberg shot just 53% (9-17) from the charity stripe in the losing effort.
Heidelberg drops its third straight, falling to 4-5. Wittenberg remains unbeaten, moving to 9-0.
All five Heidelberg starters recorded double-digits. Kiere Bennie poured in a game-high 23 points.
Myron Prewitt added 14 points and eight rebounds, while James Hanley tallied 12 points and grabbed eight boards. Chris Moxley and Prince Benson each had 10 points as Moxley dished out seven assists.
After Wittenberg cut the HU lead to 22-19, Hanley and Moxley nailed back-to-back triples to extend the Student Prince advantage. Prewitt followed Davey Hipp's three with a jumper to pull Heidelberg ahead by double digits. Moxley drained a three at the buzzer to give the Student Princes a 49-38 lead at the half.
The Tigers opened the second half on a 16-4 run that spanned the first five minutes of the period. Chad Roy's jump shot gave Wittenberg its first lead at 44-43.
Mitchell Balser buried a 3-pointer for Wittenberg, sparking a 9-1 run that left the visitors leading 80-72 with 2:38 to play.
Moxley's jumper with 48 seconds cut the HU deficit to four points. Unable to capitalize on Wittenberg missed free throws, Heidelberg's upset bid came up short.
Wittenberg shot 57% from the floor compared to Heidelberg's 47%.
After time off for the holiday, Heidelberg returns to action on Dec. 29 in Tampa, Florida. The Student Princes will take on Mass.-Dartmouth at 7 p.m.

Thanks for the tips! I am sure to try them. I have tried some of the green products and love the concept but not sure that they are as effective as other non green ones. I do know they are more costly.
Thanks so much for all of the information. I greatly appreciate it!
I am undecided but thanks for all the info.
I have tried once or twice I think they are about the same as regular products. The only problem is sometimes they are double the price .
I'm trying to go all natural and get rid of all toxic ingredients from my home. I am considering Branch Basics as I've heard so much great things about them.
Good information. I like clorox greenworks, clorox bleach to clean with,.

Britons Spurn EU: Brexit Wins With 17,000,000 Votes
Rosemary W. Pennington (Editor) · 24 June, 2016
BREXIT SUPPORTERS have gained enough votes to secure victory in the historic referendum held to decide on whether the United Kingdom should remain a member of the European Union or leave the bloc. The leave side has secured a win with a total of 16.99 million votes so far against the 15.8 million who voted to stay in the union.
Britain has voted by 52 percent against 48 percent to leave the European Union. The turnout amounted to 71.8 percent with nearly 33 million people casting their ballots.
Britons went to the polls on Thursday to decide on a referendum that will decide whether or not the United Kingdom should in the European Union.
The question that was asked is "Should the United Kingdom remain a member of the European Union or leave the European Union?" Voters had to tick a box either next to "Remain a member of the European Union," or "Leave the European Union" option.
Brexit supporters argued that EU membership has diminished the country's independence to legislate, direct its economy, and control its borders. Opponents warned that leaving the bloc could severely harm the UK economy.
UK nationalists were enthusiastic about the referendum's victory. Paul Golding of Britain First stated:
Today is a momentous day in the history of Britain: The British people have voted to leave the EU!
Our war heroes and ancestors will be smiling down on our people today for freeing themselves from the shackles of the EU superstate.
Today is our 'Independence Day', a day that will live forever as the day that we asserted our sovereignty, freedom and democracy.
Britain First played a key role in this battle – over the last few weeks we achieved tens of millions of hits on images, news stories and videos on our vast online campaigns machine.
God bless everyone who voted for this historic victory.
Today, we can truly congratulate ourselves on a monumental victory over the enemies of our country.
They dismissed our own worth, they launched a barrage of scare-mongering and lies at us, but we ignored their poison and chose instead to make Britain a free, sovereign and mighty nation once again.
Nick Griffin, of the Alliance for Peace and Freedom and former head of the British National Party, said:
The British Lion has roared! To be more accurate, the English and Welsh have chosen freedom. The echoes of that choice will be heard all over Europe in the next few years and will bring the tyranny of Strasbourg's blasphemous new Tower of Babel crashing to the ground!
So I'm delighted to say that I was wrong when I predicted a narrow Remain victory. The British people stood up better than I feared to the intense moral blackmail of the Establishment's ruthless exploitation of the Jo Cox murder. The opinion polls were wrong – probably on account of the reluctance of some members of the public to say how they were really going to vote on account of the Politically Correct bullying that the liberal elite considers 'debate'.
The victory belongs, we have to give credit where it is due, to Nigel Farage. Without him there would have been no referendum. But he was propelled into the position where Cameron was forced to grant one by two factors. The first is that, ten years ago, after nearly 20 years of studiously ignoring the issue, Mr Farage started talking about immigration. The second is that he was allowed to do so on the fanatically pro-immigration BBC.
Why? Because the BBC had realised that smears and repression were failing to halt the advance of the British National Party. "Use Farage to stop Griffin" became the strategy that the BBC used absolutely shamelessly in the European Elections of 2004 and 2009, and in the General Election of 2010.
The abuse of Question Time was only the most blatant example: Under the BBC's rules, both Nigel Farage and I should have had about twelve appearances each between 2009 and 2014. As it was, they gave him 24 and me just one – on a public lynching which shamed David Dimbleby (and, incidentally saw the BNP's opinion poll ratings soar from 6% to 22%).
At a party political level, the BBC trick was successful. It did block the BNP and contributed to its eventual collapse. But at a metapolitical level, the BNP's work as an ice-breaker to smash the taboo against discussing immigration, and the way in which liberal elite fear of "those ghastly people" led them to promote what they thought would be the harmless Ukip safety valve, now emerge as factors of absolutely enormous importance.
When an organisation as powerful as the BBC decides to interfere with the democratic process, and cynically tries to manipulate the people who fund it, the scheme brings into operation the Law of Unintended Consequences.
Last night, that Law came into force. The BBC only wanted to stop the British National Party from winning four or five seats in the European Parliament. To do so they gave Nigel Farage a licence to be a populist rebel.
In 2004, 2009 and 2010, the BBC decided to promote Nigel Farage and Ukip as a way to block the "ghastly people" of the BNP. But those apparently successful attempts to subvert the democratic process have now has rebounded on them to the nth degree.
There would have been no referendum without a victorious Farage. No victorious Farage without BBC support. No BBC support for Farage without the threat of the BNP. And no threat from the BNP without the sacrifice and courage of about 1,000 activists. That shows just how much difference 'ordinary' people can make at crucial moments in history.
Because the Unintended Consequence of the BBC's undemocratic meddling will go far beyond Great Britain. The echoes of the resulting lion's roar will trigger political earthquakes not just in Westminster and Brussels, but over the next two or three years in Paris, Berlin, Denmark and a dozen other European capitals.
The BBC thought they had come up with a cunning plan to stop a small party of radical nationalists giving voice to the legitimate but Politically Incorrect concerns of England's forgotten working class. Instead, they have started the chain-reaction demolition of the entire European Union.
The result is a massive blow for the freedom of all the nations of Europe. It will also throw a massive spanner in the works of the Brussels machinery of confrontation against our brothers and sisters in Russia. The looming threat of war just receded, and Peace has taken a big step forward. This morning, let us rejoice, for the tide has turned, and a new era has dawned!
The British National Party tweeted this morning:
Let's not forget that the #BNP have been campaigning to leave the EU since we were formed in 1982. Well done to everyone. Job done.
Kevin Alfred Strom, media director of the US-based National Alliance, said:
We welcome the victory of Brexit.
Brexit will shake the unity and diminish the strength of the anti-White political structure that now rules Europe.
But it doesn't change the fact that the enemies of our race still control the major media in America, Britain, and the entire West. It doesn't take away a single pound or dollar from the fraudulent financial infrastructure that pours our wealth into the Jews' coffers every day — or take away their power to buy laws and politicians like Hillary Clinton buys pancake makeup. It doesn't stop the implacable determination of our enemies to commit genocide against us, nor does it substantially take away their power to import millions of racial aliens into our nations — which you may be assured they will continue to do until we have the power, the organization, and the fanatical determination needed to stop them.
If Brexit could possibly have stopped even one of the things I have just mentioned, you may be assured that it would never have been allowed to be put on the ballot. We are engaged in a fight for survival against enemies who intend to kill us. The ballot box is not now — and can never be — the the way to victory in such a war.
We have a long, hard road ahead of us. We must not slacken in our efforts.

Read More In this study, graphene structures simultaneously doped with boron and nitrogen in a single layer are investigated. And optimized. Finally, the best graphedine structures doped with a boron atom and a nitrogen atom were determined. In pure Graddine PDOS and DOS diagrams, only the p-orbitals play a major role around the Fermi region. In fact, the peaks around the Fermi region correspond to the p orbitals in the guide bar and the capacity bar. In general, capacitance and conduction bands are bands close to the Fermi level and determine the amount of electrical conductivity in solids. In the pure bilayer graphene strip structure, the zero Fermi energy level is in the energy gap range. The energy gap is completely open in the entire Brillouin area, and at the point of the direct energy gap a magnitude (eV) of 0.141 is seen. If the energy gap values are classified according to conductivity, semiconductor and insulation, pure two-layer graphite can be considered a semiconductor with direct energy gap. If the energy gap is zero electron volts, matter is conductive.

Read More The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais (Motschulsky), is a field-to-store primary pest in tropical and subtropical regions which causes up to 20-30% damage to stored maize grains.Twenty plant powders were screened for potency against Sitophilus zeamais arranged in Completely Randomized Design with four replicates and control without the treatment.The result recorded that the plant powders produced no significant effect (p > 0.05) on mortality at the second day post treatment against Sitophilus zeamais. However, significant effect (p < 0.05) was recorded on the 7th, 14th, 21st and 28thdays post treatment. The lowest value for adult emergence was found in Annona squamosa (0.18), Piper guinensis (1.33) and Vernonia amygdaliana (1.67). It was found that Annona squamosa (10.31%), Vernonia amygdaliana (23.73%) and Piper guinensis (24.18%) recorded the lowest value for percent grain damage. The percent weight loss was found to be significantly lower in Annona squamosa (4.85%), Piper guinensis (5.43%) and Vernonia amygdalina (10.83%) relative to others. The percent WPI was also found to be low in Annona squamosa (12.86%), Vernonia amygdalina (28.08%) and Piper guinensis (32.94%). Mortality of Sitophilus zeamais significantly varied with the plant powders and period of exposure. The result obtained indicated that the plant powders Annona squamosa, Vernonia amygdalina and Piper guineense may provide effective control of Sitophilus zeamais.

Read More Combinatorial optimization problems spans through several applications such as task scheduling and resources allocation, where an optimal element is to be determined from the analysis of computational complexity; which characterized the optimality as best solution from feasible regions by objective functions. Some decision making problems can be solved by surface scanning as it is in dynamic programming technique, where optimal solutions comes by simple segmentation operations. Many algorithms on decision tree C4.5 and logical clustering to search solution space use dynamic programming. In this paper, optimization techniques and mathematical modeling for solving hard combinatorial problems were explored and juxtaposed with computer programming as computational aid. Technical computing and program module shows the algorithm efficacy for implementation and correctness of combinatorial structure to obtain optimal solution.

Read More Electronic learning has changed the conventional pattern of studying in the universities for some decades back, especially in developing countries. Its innovative nature of instructional delivery tends to provide blended learning with the inculcation of multimedia in teaching pedagogy. The existence of virtual education in many e-learning systems had undermined students' responsibility at tertiary level to plan, control and reflect the learning process. In this paper, an e-learning system was developed with guidance and adaptation support. The functional scope of the developed system is 'learner-led' which allows lecturers and students whom are geographically dispersed to leverage on time and space in higher education. Learning experiences are being delivered through web pages hosted on web server and accessible to students synchronously through internet enabled device with web browser for self-paced study.

Read More The water consumed in life is somehow returned to the original sources, but most of the water that is returned to its original sources after application is not the same as the primary water, but is a liquid that, in addition to the constituents of the consumed water, transmits all kinds. It is a substance that is used in human life. The most important substances in water consumed by humans include proteins, fats, carbohydrates, soap cleansers or detergents. If the used water that is returned to its original sources is the result of industrial activities, it will contain thousands of chemical compounds that are used in industry. In general, any change in the quality of water resources in the world will occur due to the discharge of sewage or effluent. In such a way that we cannot use these resources in normal uses simply or with little purification, it is called pollution. Therefore, the first result of human social and industrial activities appears in the form of destruction and destruction of the living environment through pollution of water-soil-air resources and all the things that are involved in his better life. It is not only surface water that has been exposed to pollution from human social and industrial activities, but also the discharge of sewage and wastewater into the ground can greatly contaminate groundwater.

Lennon's a top Bhoy says Brendan Rodgers
Reds boss full of praise for Celtic counterpart ahead of Dublin friendly
James Pearce
Brendan Rodgers with Celtic manager Neil Lennon ahead of the Dublin Decider
Brendan Rodgers paid tribute to the achievements of Celtic boss Neil Lennon ahead of Liverpool's friendly against the Scottish champions today.
The proud Northern Irishmen sat beside each other at last night's joint press conference to promote what has been billed as the "Dublin Decider".
The pair have known each other since 2009 when Rodgers was in charge of Reading and Lennon was seeking coaching experience before moving into management.
"The work Neil has done there has been incredible," Rodgers said.
"I know the club and the status and size of it and the pressure the job holds. There aren't many jobs where the pressure is to win every single game.
"In England there are some games where you draw and it's a good result. But Neil is living under pressure where he has to win every single game.
"The achievements in the Champions League (they reached the last 16 last season) have been phenomenal. Last year, the Barcelona game, to tactically organise his team that well, they shouldn't have lost the game away and to win the home game, he showed all the credentials to be a top European coach. He has done great credit to Scottish football and Celtic. I hold him very highly.
"A few years ago, when I was at Reading, I got a call from Neil to ask if he could have a couple of days down at Reading for some football chat.
"That shows the determination and mindset he had to become a success. I have a great respect for him as a professional and a person. He has done a wonderful job."

Lennon repaid the compliment as he saluted the way in which his fellow countryman has started to revive Liverpool's fortunes.
"The time I spent with Brendan was a real eye-opener for me," Lennon said.
"I was still young on the coaching side of things. The way Brendan perceives the game and his philosophy on the training ground was fantastic to watch. I picked up so much from him.
"He has carved out a fantastic career for himself already and I'm very proud of him. I'm proud of what he achieved at Swansea and the way he has handled the Liverpool job so far both on and off the field.
"I hope he goes easy on us on Saturday but I think Liverpool are in very good hands. I think Liverpool are going in the right direction and I'm expecting a big season from him."

It's a plunderful life at Wellington care home!
It was all shiver-me-timbers and avast, me hearties! at pirate and sailor-themed 'gang show' at Camelot House Care and Lodge nursing home in Wellington.
The show, which included songs and music with a nautical theme, was performed by the care homes' activities' team in front of an audience of delighted residents.
"We're big on audience participation here," said activities team's Richard Dempslake, "and the show certainly didn't disappoint.
"It was great to hear everyone joining in with all the songs. The look on their faces was a picture. There was a great atmosphere and lots of smiles and laughing."
The show is part of an on-going project by the activities' team which involves residents making the props and backdrop for the show.
"Music and singing are believed to activate specific areas of the brain and act as a cue for autobiographical memories," added Richard.
"It also seems to put everyone in a nice relaxed mood."

\r\nDan taught for 11 years at the Harvard Business School and has been a visiting professor at Columbia, Insead, Reykjavik, Theseus, and the Technion. He has published more than 30 case studies on international entrepreneurs, and three additional seminal HBR articles: "The Global Entrepreneur," (2008), \"How Senior Managers Think,\" (1984) and \"The Tactics of Strategic Opportunism.\" (1987).
\r\nBetween 1987-2004, Dan lived in Israel where he was an entrepreneur and venture capitalist, and introduced innovative entrepreneurship development practices. Dan speaks and consults frequently on global entrepreneurship and has been quoted in Fortune, The Economist, Forbes, Boston Globe, Success, Yomiuri Shimbun, il Mondi, HaAretz, Nikkei, Business Week, and USA Today.
So you say you want a revolution? Let a thousand flowers bloom (Chairman Mao)? Reduce Russia's dependence on oil (like King Abdullah and KAUST)? Instead of hobnobbing for the cameras with Steve Jobs and Eric Schmidt, you should be talking -- and listening -- to Natalya Kasperskaya (Kaspersky Lab), Arkhady Volozh (Yandex), Victoria Livschitz (Grid Systems), Sasha Galitsky (serial entrepreneur), and Serguie Beloussov (Parallels). These great Russian entrepreneurs are right under your nose. With brains, determination, leadership, and a little je ne sais quoi, they are navigating the maze of the Russian environment. If you want to build a healthy entrepreneurship ecosystem for sustained economic prosperity, you should learn from those who know how to make it work now, and how to make it work better in the future.
Back in the USSR. President Medvedev, your Skolkovo Valley smacks like a repackaging of top-down industrial and economic planning. If it is entrepreneurship you are after, you cannot dictate it top down. Moscow can't emulate Silicon Valley. Kigali can't emulate Silicon Valley. Cali can't emulate Silicon Valley. Guess what: Silicon Valley can't emulate Silicon Valley.
1.	Identify and over-celebrate the entrepreneurs who have made it. I have been all over the world looking, and I have yet to see a society without entrepreneurs: like art and music, entrepreneurship in part expresses something fundamental in the human spirit. Sometimes a societies' entrepreneurs are flying under the radar, but you have the ability to sniff them out.
2.	Talk with them and listen to them. Create a candid, informal, bidirectional dialog. Not the big company talking heads show of this month's St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, but an ongoing discussion where you can learn the real entrepreneurs' perspectives. Use them to help you figure out how to practically change the ecosystem to make it conducive to entrepreneurship, big time. Remember, these are Russia's best and brightest. And remember, Russia has an amazing scientific and technological legacy to build on.
3.	Put Russia's Diaspora to work. Form a group of the best ex-patriate Russian entrepreneurs living in the U.S., Europe, and Israel. They would be intrigued, if not downright proud, to be consulted. Tear a page out of Taiwan's book when the newly elected Premier Sun created the "foreign monk" Science and Technology Advisory Group. STAG had an incredible impact, and was one of the root causes of the brain gain of 40,000 US-trained high tech entrepreneurs and executives flooding back to Taiwan in the 1990s.
4.	Remain sectorally agnostic. For three decades, Israel's vaunted Chief Scientist program adamantly avoided prioritizing sectors to promote. Sectoral agnosticism sends a strong message because it encourages entrepreneurs to identify and realize what THEY think are opportunities. This is part of letting the thousand flowers bloom. Remember that entrepreneurship is inherently a contrarian activity: you need to let loose the hounds, and let them sniff out the opportunities.
5.	Don't paint the zebra. You cannot take a white donkey, paint it with black stripes, and call it a zebra. Help entrepreneurship grow organically rather than capturing it in clusters. Create conditions for zebras to breed, which is not in cluster captivity. A lot of that involves removing the obstacles that prevent them from doing so. Remember that removing bureaucratic obstacles is more impactful than creating incentives, all else being equal.
6.	Intervene holistically. There are 13 distinct, but interrelated elements which compose an entrepreneurship ecosystem. All 13 of these have to line up eventually in order for there to be sustainable entrepreneurship. Is there capital and technology? Bolster these with diaspora networks and entrepreneurship education. Are there success stories? Use them to encourage large companies to become customers to small suppliers. Does the culture support risk taking and honest failure? Encourage support services to help reduce the failure rate.
Russia's next revolution won't happen overnight, but the key is to look inside. You should emulate yourself, not Silicon Valley. And if you want to do international benchmarking, instead of visiting San Jose and Cupertino, you should be visiting Hsinchu City, Herziliya and Reykjavik.
Daniel Isenberg is the Professor of Management Practice at Babson Global, Founder and Executive Director of the Babson Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Project, and author of the Harvard Business Review article, "How to Start an Entrepreneurial Revolution " (June 2010).

The recipes that helped Michelin star chef Tom Kerridge lose 70kg

What we should get straight about low carb, high fat
20 clever ways to make the most of your spiraliser
Pete Evans's paleo meal planner
Tom Kerridge never set out to write a diet book. But after shedding more than 70 kilograms from his ample frame - most of it in the public eye as a presenter on the BBC's Proper Pub Food and Best Ever Dishes - the affable British chef was swamped with so much interest about how he trimmed down that he decided to commit his ideas to paper.
So how did a self-described "beer-drinking, late-night burger-eating, cheese-loving bloke" manage to lose more than a third of his body weight?
The Michelin-starred chef before embarking on his low-carb plan. Photo: Supplied
The answers contained in his new cookbook, Tom Kerridge's Dopamine Diet, aren't earth-shatteringly original, as the Michelin-starred chef from Marlow gastropub The Hand and Flowers, is the first to concede.
The recipes are essentially revved-up versions of low-carb cooking, ditching anything sugary or starchy in favour of meat, fish, eggs, nuts, dairy and vegies, with starring roles given over to omelets, mince and broth.
But where other books in the same genre might suggest salads and light lunches, Kerridge conjures up robust satiating fare heavy on seasoning, cream and marinades. His chef technique lets him cram in flavour and texture, he says, and as a busy new father who grew up in a housing estate in the West Country of England, he also has an appreciation for no-fuss family meals.
It's a potato - it couldn't beat you in a running race. It can't read or write. It can't do anything - it's an inanimate object.
"It's about homely great cooking," he says. "It's protein led ... a lot of it is about big flavours, spices and strong tastes."
There are restrictions, of course - no alcohol, a 90-gram limit on carbohydrates per day, and mince meals without the usually obligatory serve of rice or pasta. But even four years after starting his weight-loss plan, Kerridge says he never feels deprived or as if he's missing out.

"If you're somebody who is active, enjoys flavours and food and cooking, it's still a celebration of eating food," he says. "[It's] focussing on what you actually can eat rather than worrying about what you can't and that's the difference."
For Kerridge, the turning point came when his 40th birthday began to loom, and he tipped the scales at nearly 190 kilograms. Working in a business all about good food and drink, he knew calorie counting was never going to work. Likewise anything fussy, repetitive or boring.
He knew low-calorie diets would leave him ravenous, and low-fat would strip his food of flavour. That left low-carb - which sounded doable. He could still eat his steak - maybe even two - as long as he ditched the chips, or swapped them for leafy greens.
So he began to experiment with recipes. Fish and chips became seared tuna, white radish and sesame salad. Eggs on toast became egg atop spinach, sesame and pork. Pizza was reinvented as pepperoni pizza omelet. And spaghetti Bolognese transformed into lamb ragu with zucchini noodles.

"It takes a bit of willpower and it takes commitment but you're not going to feel hungry," he says.
"You have to want to go on the diet, but this one is a lot easier to maintain because you're enjoying it ... and you're not counting calories."
Eating out doesn't have to be a challenge, either. "What you do is order clever, so if you're having Chinese you have the stir-fried vegetables and a piece of steamed fish and no noodles. You just avoid things cooked in batter or sweet sauces. So socially ... your lifestyle doesn't have to change."
What then, of the book's sciency-sounding title? It refers to what Kerridge calls his "dopamine heroes" - beef, chicken, chocolate, fruit, nuts, spices and dairy. Feel-good foods he says are high in a chemical called tyrosine, which helps boost the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and emotional rewards.
In fact, the way Kerridge tells it, it was fun to lose weight.
"I always looked forward to what I was eating," he says. "I'm just trying to lift and drive flavours forwards ... So if a normal recipe had two cloves of recipe in, I was putting in eight."
Kerridge doesn't shy away from sweets and pick-me-ups entirely, though. Sugar replacements such as inulin and erythritol are allowed, as is fruit. "It's an apple, I don't see as cheating … you do crave a sweetness but it's also full of vitamins, it's healthy, it's not lost sugars."
Ultimately, though, resisting the lure of a golden baked spud does require some resolve. The trick that helped his formerly not-so-slender self was, of all things, thinking of a potato.
"In those moments of weakness ... I visualise the face on a potato," he says.
"In any other part of life you wouldn't let it beat you. It's a potato - it couldn't beat you in a running race. It can't read or write. It can't do anything - it's an inanimate object. You can beat this because you have a brain and this is something that's a vegetable. But you have to take it on as a thing rather than the craving you're having."

Pepperoni pizza omelette
Carb count: 16-8g per person
All the flavours of a pizza but without the heavy carbs. Photo: Bloomsbury
250ml passata
2 tbsp tomato puree
150g sliced pepperoni
2 balls of mozzarella (about 125g each), drained
30g parmesan cheese
a small handful of basil leaves
1. To make the tomato sauce, heat the passata, tomato puree and garlic in a saucepan over a medium heat. Simmer to reduce until the sauce is nice and thick. This will take about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat, season with salt and pepper to taste and leave to cool.
2. Preheat the oven to 200C. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs and dried oregano and season with salt and pepper.
3. Heat a little olive oil in a 24cm non-stick ovenproof frying pan over a medium-high heat. Pour in the egg and stir until it is almost fully cooked, removing the pan from the heat when the omelette is still a little runny and wobbly in the middle.
4. Gently spread the tomato sauce all over the omelette. Cover with the pepperoni, then tear the mozzarella into pieces and scatter it over.
5. Sprinkle with the oregano and then place the pan in the oven for eight to 10 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the "pizza" is set.
6. Remove from the oven and immediately grate the parmesan over the top. Scatter over the basil and serve at once, directly from the pan.
Shepherd's pie with creamy cauliflower topping
Carb count: 22g per person
A not-quite-so-classic comfort meal with big flavours. Photo: Bloomsbury
800g good-quality minced lamb
8 merguez sausages
Vegetable oil, for cooking
2 onions, diced
2 tsp cracked black pepper
4 celery sticks, tough strings removed, diced
500ml strong beef stock
A good dash of Worcestershire sauce
2 cauliflowers (about 700g each), cut into large florets
70ml double cream
200g strong blue cheese, such as Stilton, crumbled
1. Preheat the oven to 200C. Place the lamb mince in a large roasting tin and roast, stirring 3 or 4 times to break up the mince, for 35-40 minutes until dark brown. It should look like instant coffee granules. Bake the merguez sausages in another roasting tin, alongside the lamb, for 10-15 minutes until cooked through.
2. Tip the mince into a colander to drain. Let the sausages cool, then cut into chunks.
3. Pour a splash of oil into a large saucepan and warm over a medium-low heat. Add the onions and garlic and sweat gently, stirring from time to time, for 10-15 minutes until soft. Stir in the fennel seeds, curry powder, cracked pepper and cinnamon and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes.
4. Stir in the celery and browned mince. Pour in the stock and add the Worcestershire sauce and some salt. Bring to the boil, lower the heat and simmer for 1-1½ hours, until beautifully thick and rich. Take off the heat and allow to cool.
5. Preheat the oven to 190C. Stir the chopped sausages into the cooled lamb, then spoon into a shallow ovenproof dish, about 30x22cm and 8cm deep. Level the surface with the back of the spoon.
6. For the topping, bring a pan of lightly salted water to the boil, add the cauliflower florets and simmer until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain the cauliflower and place in a food processor with the butter, cream and some salt and pepper. Blend until smooth. Add the blue cheese and blitz to combine.
7. Spoon the cauliflower topping evenly over the lamb and sausage mixture. Stand the dish on an oven tray and bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes until the meat mixture is bubbling and the topping is starting to brown. Serve.

NSA Denies Impersonating Facebook to Exploit Targets
Author: Dennis Fisher
The NSA on Thursday responded to media reports that it has been impersonating Facebook and other sites in order to compromise surveillance targets' machines, saying that the agency "does not use its technical capabilities to impersonate U.S. company websites."
It is relatively rare for the NSA to respond directly to reports about its technical capabilities or surveillance methods, even considering the massive volume of reports that have come out in the last nine months about the agency. On Wednesday, The Intercept, citing documents supplied by NSA leaker Edward Snowden, reported that the agency sometimes impersonated Facebook servers as a way to attract targets. The operation was part of a plan to infect millions of machines with the agency's special brand of malware, according to the report.
It's well-known that the NSA's Tailored Access Operations (TAO) unit, which does much of the agency's offensive work, has a wide range of technical capabilities at its disposal. Typically the unit's efforts are deployed in small, targeted operations. But the allegation that the agency is now performing large-scale compromises of machines changes that equation.
However, the NSA said in a statement that the allegations are false and that the agency does not perform broad, indiscriminate exploitation operations.
"Recent media reports that allege NSA has infected millions of computers around the world with malware, and that NSA is impersonating U.S. social media or other websites, are inaccurate. NSA uses its technical capabilities only to support lawful and appropriate foreign intelligence operations, all of which must be carried out in strict accordance with its authorities. Technical capability must be understood within the legal, policy, and operational context within which the capability must be employed," the statement from the NSA Public Affairs Office says.
A good portion of the discussion around the NSA revelations of the last few months has involved whether the agency has overstepped its bounds and abandoned its legal mission of conducting foreign intelligence operations. U.S. citizens are supposed to be off-limits for NSA operations, except in specific circumstances. The agency says that reports that its officers don't target users indiscriminately.
"NSA's authorities require that its foreign intelligence operations support valid national security requirements, protect the legitimate privacy interests of all persons, and be as tailored as feasible. NSA does not use its technical capabilities to impersonate U.S. company websites. Nor does NSA target any user of global Internet services without appropriate legal authority. Reports of indiscriminate computer exploitation operations are simply false," the statement says.

Moose on March 13, 2014
Zuckerberg called Obama to whine, not about our privacy of course because he doesn't give a rats arse about that, he's whining that this bad press is hurting his company. Lets face it, every U.S. company, and likely all those in the Five Eyes, are being contacted by the NSA and other government agencies to in some fashion, before they make and distribute products, to compromise our sense of privacy and security with them. Ford, Google, Apple, Facebook, OnStar, cell phone carriers, router makers, printer makers (see > "Seeing Yellow Dots?") etc., they are all our enemy. Stop giving them money and they will die. Buy only dumb devices, they do the job and don't require a software update that will pawn you or prematurely fail due to software bloat.

As believable as saying the Americans don't kill innocent civilians and children in their wars against countries they invade.
a on March 14, 2014
The reference to US companies or social sites is rather telling. Sites in other countries are certainly not covered.


With more public monuments per capita than any city in the United States, there are sights to last you a lifetime in Baltimore. Moving here means lots of sightseeing and never-ending adventures.
More often than not people dread their relocations. And this is arguably so because of the complexity and stress that it brings. When you put it this way it is perfectly understandable that people have such reactions. However, moving from Boston to Baltimore doesn't have to be that way if you consider hiring our moving services Boston. Our moving professionals tend to pay a lot of attention to our customers, more so when we understood that you, the client, should be at the forefront of everything we do for you. You are the most important element!
We should not be forcing you to adapt to the move, but rather adapt the relocation to you. This way we achieve exactly what we strive to achieve with each project we take – highest possible customer satisfaction. We hope to turn your relocation into a pleasant, celebratory event. By doing so, next time you have to relocate you might not dread it as much as you did the first time. You should refrain from trying to save money by doing everything on your own. You might end up saving money this way, but you are risking potential harm to yourself, your family, friends or to your belongings. All of this is not worth the coin you would be saving this way. So, in the end, if you are having such ideas, just ask yourself – is it worth it?
Hiring professional moving assistance means that you are hiring a team of professionals to take care of all the heavy lifting. When you take a ton of logistics and heavy lifting out of the picture, you have automatically taken out a lot of stress. With this, you and your friends, family or coworkers are left with a pleasant experience. Relocating is, in most cases, the beginning of a new chapter in your life (or career), and it should be something you enjoy and look forward to. Not something you dread.
Thanks to our specialized teams, you are able to achieve just that. This is why we place our clients at the forefront of everything we do. In doing so, we make sure that your satisfaction and comfort is at the highest possible level, whilst still keeping the actual relocation in mind. This is how we can achieve to make moving from Boston to Baltimore a pleasant experience for you. We are able to do this, while still focusing on the actual relocation, thanks to years of training and experience that we have behind us. Furthermore, we use top of the line equipment in all the projects that we undertake. This is what differentiates us from many competitors in the industry today.
In case of moving from Boston to Baltimore, we are looking at a long distance relocation. This is where the importance of long distance movers Massachusetts becomes imperative. With local moves, you could potentially do most of it (if not all of it) on your own. Even so, we advise against it, but if push came to shove – you could do it. When it comes to long distance relocation, our advice is that you should not even attempt to do it.
Long distance relocations are a unique challenge.
Long distance relocation brings a cluster of potential hazards and difficulties. This is why you should consider at least consulting a team of professionals before you dig into something like that. You should be very careful because this distance brings challenges that might not even come to your mind when you initially plan for everything. You could end up doing a mixed approach, where you would let a professional team take care of all the carrying, lifting and transporting, and you would do all the packing and preparation beforehand. This would even prove to be an excellent balance since you would save money not having to pay for things you could safely do on your own. On the other side, you would be paying professionals to take care of all the heavy and difficult stuff.
So, if you are having any doubts or concerns, all you have to do is pick up the phone and give us a call. Do not worry, it is entirely free! This is just so that we can have a casual conversation about what you need. The more details you can provide our agents with – the better response we can give. We encourage you to express any concerns and ask all the questions you can think of. Maybe there are things that you can learn to enhance the process. We should be a team, after all!
Another important thing is allowing us to provide you with an estimate. Making a moving estimate Boston is as difficult, or as easy, depending on the level of detail you provide us with. The more specific you are, the more accurate our moving estimate will be. This will provide you with clear insight as to what you can anticipate when your moving day comes. It can help a lot when determining your moving budget.
The best thing about such moving estimates is that they, usually, do not really differ when it comes to the actual price. Usually, there are oscillations of no more than 10 percent, up or down. However, if you are able to provide our agents access to the moving site for them to make a first-person impression, your estimate might not fluctuate at all. Still, how you wish to do it is entirely up to you. We would not like you to feel pressured in any way.
Having this said, we eagerly expect your call. We are ready for all your questions.

How Catholic Art Saved the Faith
The Triumph of Beauty and Truth in Counter-Reformation Art
by Elizabeth Lev
Not long after Martin Luther's defiance of the Church in 1517, dialogue between Protestants and Catholics broke down, brother turned against brother, and devastating religious wars erupted across Europe. Desperate to restore the peace and recover the unity of Faith, Catholic theologians clarified and reaffirmed Catholic doctrines, but turned as well to another form of evangelization: the Arts.
Convinced that to win over the unlettered, the best place to fight heresy was not in the streets but in stone and on canvas, they enlisted the century's best artists to create a glorious wave of beautiful works of sacred art — Catholic works of sacred art — to draw people together instead of driving them apart.
How Catholic Art Saved the Faith tells the story of the creation and successes of this vibrant, visual-arts SWAT team whose war cry could have been "art for Faith's sake!" Over the years, it included Michelangelo, of course, and, among other great artists, the edgy Caravaggio, the graceful Guido Reni, the technically perfect Annibale Carracci, the colorful Barocci, the theatrical Bernini, and the passionate Artemisia Gentileschi. Each of these creative souls, despite their own interior struggles, was a key player in this magnificent, generations-long project: the affirmation through beauty of the teachings of the Holy Catholic Church.
Here you will meet the fascinating artists who formed this cadre's core. You will revel in scores of their full-color paintings. And you will profit from the lucid explanations of their lovely creations: works that over the centuries have touched the hearts and deepened the faith of millions of pilgrims who have made their way to the Eternal City to gaze upon them.
Join those pilgrims now in an encounter with the magnificent artworks of the Catholic Restoration — artworks which from their conception were intended to delight, teach, and inspire. As they have done for the faith of so many, so will they do for you.

"Lev's text sheds light on the most influential development in Western sacred art after the Franciscan revolution of the late Middle Ages, helping modern readers re-connect with the dynamism of Catholic culture in the early modern era. "
Msgr. Timothy Verdon
Director, Florence Cathedral Museum (Italy)
"This is a work not only about beauty but of beauty. It will captivate those who love art, love the faith, love great writing or love all three."
Fr. Roger J. Landry
Author, National Chaplain, Catholic Voices USA
"Liz Lev so brilliantly connects art and faith that you will experience every painting, statue and church in a deeper, emotionally powerful and spiritually fulfilling way. "
"A treat for the eye and the soul. "
"In a series of finely crafted and absorbing essays, Elizabeth Lev actually demonstrates how, at a crucial moment in the Church's history, artists used paintbrush and chisel to proclaim the Gospel. This book will be extremely helpful for catechists, teachers, preachers, and I daresay, for artists themselves. "

Genre-defining masterwork
A genre-defining masterwork like the paintings it showcases, this richly layered book reads fluidly like a novel and yet plumbs depths of insight never explored concerning one of the most important eras of artistic achievement. While expounding incisive perceptions of the reasons for individual compositions and techniques, Lev's writing ushers the reader into a much broader and even lovelier tableau: that of a holy impetus to preserve and extol the most exalted gifts entrusted to mankind, the spiritual treasures of the Catholic faith. One arises from this read having captured a beguiling scent—both in the artistic movement described, and in the writing itself—of divine inspiration.
Beauty in the service of Truth
Liz Lev has done it again! In this elegantly written and beautifully illustrated book, Lev combines her deep knowledge of art history and theology to show how Counter-Reformation artists used their art to defend the Truth of their ancient faith. Where argument alone would not persuade, beauty had the power to lead souls. Both Catholic and non-Catholics will gain a deeper appreciation of what these magnificent artists set out to achieve. Highly recommended!
Gorgeous Apologetics!
In this beautifully crafted work, Elizabeth Lev has provided our age a new apologetics, rich in scope and sourcing. Her book is the illustrated story of the Catholic response to the Reformation, usually known as the Counter-Reformation but in Lev's telling, the Restoration. Drawing on copious references, she lays out the arguments on both sides, making clear withal, in vivid prose, her own decided preference.
Beauty and Evangelization
This book presents a powerful argument for the evangelical power of beauty and the need to understand art and how it relates to faith. Art and images have long been an important means by which the Church teaches and this book shows how that was done during the Counter Reformation.
I had the privilege of meeting this young lady. She's incredibly brilliant and a good Christian lady. You won't be disappointed with her book.
