Microsoft Defends Changes To Windows Genuine Advantage Program As 'Small Burden'
Microsoft says the changes to its anti-piracy software will have little impact on customers using legal copies of Windows XP.
Microsoft on Wednesday defended recent changes to anti-piracy software that's sent to Windows XP users via automatic updates, and said that the impact on consumer and business customers would be minor.
"The burden on users with genuine systems is small," said David Lazar, director of Microsoft's Genuine Windows, in an e-mail reply to several questions about the revamped WGA Notifications Tool for Windows XP. "In fact, many users like the confidence of knowing their software is and continues to be genuine."
Microsoft's Windows Genuine Advantage program has been under fire since Microsoft debuted the notifications component in April. In June, Microsoft was sued as a spyware distributor after the company revealed that WGA "phoned home" to Microsoft's servers on a daily basis. Similar technologies and practices unveiled for Windows Vista also have come under attack.
Tuesday, Microsoft announced it had posted an update to the Notifications Tool—software that sniffs out counterfeit copies of Windows XP then nags users to obtain or buy a legitimate edition—and would roll out the new version to some users through the operating system's automated security update service.
Among other changes to the software, Microsoft said it has added self-help tools to help users troubleshoot instances when Notifications couldn't decide if the copy of Windows XP was valid. Michael Cherry, an analyst at research firm Decisions on Microsoft, blasted that move as an attempt by Microsoft to shift more of its anti-piracy workload to customers.
"I shouldn't have to be sent off on a whole day adventure to troubleshoot validation for Microsoft," he said Tuesday. Cherry also suspected that the move is a way for Microsoft to avoid costly technical support calls by angry users told that their Windows was illegitimate.
Microsoft's Lazar confirmed the desire to move users from the telephone support desk to online self-help. "[We want to make] the messaging and the self-help options so clear and simple that users will not need telephone support," he said. "Of course, telephone support is available for those who prefer this option, but ultimately, we think the system will run best if most issues have simple self-help solutions."
Lazar also explained that the update was prompted, at least in part, by Microsoft's discovery of four additional product activation keys that had been subverted and used to validate counterfeit copies of its operating system.
"As we continue our anti-piracy efforts, we discover new compromised keys," he said. "So each time we update the tool, we expand the blocked key list. Therefore, a system that validates successfully one month may not pass the next."
Microsoft has made this clearer to users, Lazar said, in Tuesday's update, which now includes new language in the Notifications Tool interface: "Your system may be revalidated periodically in order to take advantage of new information available from Microsoft that can help protect you against new forms of counterfeiting."
"Revalidation has been a standard part of our program since the start," said Lazar. "The threat of software piracy is constantly evolving, and as such we are committed to protecting ourselves and customers by updating and improving the technology we use to fight it."
To that end, Lazar said, users should expect updates to the Notifications Tool every 90 to 120 days.


Hot milk… there's got to be a better name for this. Blech. This is so not just hot milk. It's wrap-yourself-up-in-a-blanket-on-the-couch-and-stare-at-the-christmas-tree [milk]. It's not cocoa; it's not cider. But they got together and had a love child, this would be it. If anyone has a more succinct way of expressing that, I'm all ears. Leave it in the comments. For now though, I'm keeping it short and sweet. I've got to go cozy up and enjoy my Christmas-in-a-mug [milk].
In a small sauce pan, add 1 cup of almond milk. Then add the honey and spices and whisk. Continue to heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the milk begins bubble. Pour into mug, get comfortable and enjoy.
This sure sounds good. I love to try it if I can get that milk as I never knew of it.
May you and Ross enjoy a memorable Christmas In your new home.
Aunt Merce! Thanks for your comment. So good to hear from you! Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas too. You will be missed in Texas.

The Penguins And Capitals Put On A 15 Goal Display That Was An Unbelievably Entertaining Insult To The Sport
Miss any of the action in the @Penguins / @Capitals game last night?!? Catch up on all FIFTEEN GOALS here: pic.twitter.com/RJQFVXZ8J0

I'm no stick in the mud that has derives pleasure from taking a wet blanket and using it to smother the fun out of ridiculously eventful sporting events. I know the headline may read that way, but the truth is that I have a shameless amount of love for 8-7 shootouts (as long as they don't end in shootouts). I just think it's only fair to acknowledge that a game featuring nine goals scored in twenty minutes of professional hockey required defense that can only be described as offensive and goaltending that was so counterproductive that it would be better defined as 'net-under-minding'. Obviously there was a ton of firepower on display, but it burned a hell of a lot quicker once it got caught by the wind that two of the best teams in the sport outright refused to throw caution to.
That doesn't mean I can't enjoy a performance that may have singlehandedly increased scoring enough to silence those that want to tear up the very fabric of the sport by making the nets bigger. It doesn't mean I don't think the novelty of a scoring output that would put the point totals of the Los Angeles Rams to shame wasn't worth the torching of the two GAA's that it ultimately destroyed. It just means that what took place in Pittsburgh last night was basically the athletic equivalent of reality television in the sense that it was so unapologetically a mockery of itself that it became a more captivating version of itself.
Even Roberto Luongo couldn't turn away, and I think he was trying to be funny just as much as he was trying to laugh himself through the second-hand pain of watching two of his peers get their dicks kicked in....
I'm watching this pens-caps 7-7 game in the fetal position.......

It is not easy to figure out the complex world of automobile repairs. Educate yourself with the information in this article and put it to good use. You'll be astounded by what you're learning.
Ensure the mechanic you use has an ASE certification before allowing them to operate on your vehicle. This type of certification means two years experience and also a passed written test. This will ensure that you have the cream of the crop working on your vehicle.
When you are at the auto shop, ask a lot of questions concerning your car. What will they do to fix it? What is the problem? Preventing automotive issues is a valuable skill to save money during the year.
TIP! Before taking your vehicle to an auto repair shop, check out their online reviews. This will speak volumes about their customer service abilities and their skill in solving issues.
Keep your car clean to prevent rust. All cars eventually succumb to rust, however you can delay this process by washing all salt and chemicals from your car immediately. Wax the paint job to protect it.
Every time you're going to have an automobile repaired, you have to get a record of what is done to it. If you have problems later, these records can come in handy. If you don't have these kinds of records it could cost you more because you won't be able to locate the problems quickly.
TIP! Look to your friends for their opinions on reputable car mechanics. They have used mechanics before and can fill you in on their experiences.
See if you can find reviews about the body shop of your choice on the Internet. This will tell you everything you need to know about the shop. This will help you choose the best shop.
TIP! Become educated on car-part classifications. The classification of parts include new, rebuild and reconditioned, and salvage.
Take time to use these tips for your future repairs. Do not let your lack of information cause you problems or to lose your money. Commanding your own auto repairs and knowing your options can help you make the best deals you can to win later on.


EASYJET has announced plans to double its intake of female pilots.
The budget airline, a major presence at Southend and Stansted airports, has been piloted to success by its female chief executive Carolyn McCall, but women at the controls of EasyJet's planes are still a relative rarity.
Out of 2.500 pilots working for EasyJet, only 130 are women.
The announcement coincides with the opening of EasyJet's new pilot training academy, based at Gatwick. The first annual intake of trainees at the new facility will double the proportion of women, from 6 per cent to 12 per cent.
At the opening of the new centre, Patrick McLoughlin, the Government transport secretary, said: "It is astonishing to think that 15 years into the 21st century, men still account for 94 per cent of professional pilots in Britain, and 97 per cent across the world.
By way of encouragement, EasyJet is also launching a schools service, which will despatch senior female pilots to talk to girls in classrooms across the country, and to act as role models.
As part of this programme, it will work in partnership with organisations promoting female take-up of Stem (science, engineering, technology and maths) subjects.
The company is also setting aside £1million to provide ten training loans to female recruits. EasyJet has increased its overall numbers of pilot trainees, in line with a sharp rise in the number of routes it operates, in particular from Southend. More than 126,000 extra flights are scheduled for spring 2016, compared to the same period this year.
Brian Tyrell, EasyJet's head of flight operations, said: "We value diversity and believe a workforce that better reflects our customers will help support future success.
"We recognise the proportion of our pilots who are female is too low, as it is across the industry as a whole, and we are now taking active steps to improve the ratio.
Responding to the announcement, Pauline Vahey, chair of the British Women Pilots Association, said: "The British Women Pilots' Association is delighted to partner with EasyJet in this ground-breaking initiative.It demonstrates EasyJet is a pioneer in the industry, not unlike the early women pioneers in aviation who founded the BWPA 60 years ago this year.
Pilot courses at the new academy will take approximately two years, depending on previous flying experience. The full cost of the course is about £100,000.
Airline pilots normally earn in excess of this sum annually, so are able to pay off the cost of loans quite quickly once they qualify.

I have been a teacher for about four decades ,but even more than that , a student and learner all along --literature being my favourite subject with special love for poetry , a trait I seem to have inherited from my father,who was a very good poet ,it was he that instilled in me a deep love for poetry early in childhood . Starting as a science student ,I shifted to literature after graduation and and worked on Emily Dickinson's poetry for Doctoral degree. I don't claim to be a poet ,but do admit my inherent love for poetic utterances as and when I find them and sometimes feel inspired to give vent to my own emotions in words that seem to convey them .Honestly it happens quite effortlessly and also leaves me with an immense satisfaction .If it can be termed poetry ,all the more rewarding. .

The consultant's view: Heraldo Blasco
The Argentina-based Associate FCSI member outlines the impact of Covid-19 on the retail sector in Latin America
This article is the result of a survey of leading companies in the retail sector in six Latin American countries, with basic economic-social situations of relative heterogeneity.
We have tried to take the common denominators of the current reality of each country, showing the immediate perspective of the sector.
In this context, retail trade manifests itself as a key sector for social sustainability and business continuity – following safety rules and protocols – has been, and remains, the absolute priority.
Highest priority
The first axis is the focus placed today on guaranteeing operation and supply, protecting the health of its collaborators and customers, which today is the highest priority of company managers.
The provision of critical supplies, such as alcohol gel and paper, is ensured in the first instance for business partners and clients and later for sale.
Preventive measures are taken, mainly focused on their stores, but also on their non-visible areas of operational support/back-office, including distribution centres and transport.
Managing the supply chain
The second axis focuses on the supply chain, with different origins, which could be divided into several segments:
Stock shortages and shortages of basic products due to the behaviour of people who are over-stocking. Retail supply systems are, to a greater or lesser extent, predictors of behaviour.
When for some exogenous reason, as in this crisis, consumption variables are repeatedly altered, the complex supply system collapses -from the producer or manufacturer to replacement logistics, with a number of intermediate steps – the current chain out of everyday "harmonic balance". This is the so-called "supply in context of uncertain demand".
In this context, since the entire chain suffers contingencies, the deviations are amplified and redundant.
The search for replacements to product shortages, the bureaucratic difficulties of registering products and suppliers, the implicit cost increases, etc. are today:
Shortages of critical products due to specific demand: These products, such as alcohol in gel, do not have context-adjusted supply parameters, therefore the entire chain goes into default. These cases are more visible and sensitive for everyone in the current and demanded situation enormous efforts by commercial, logistical and operational teams to maintain the level of supply according to current requirements, given the exponential increase in the volume operated.
Rupture in the imported supply chain: We must consider, the enormous percentage of non-food products originating in China that are obviously not being replenished, as also happens with other countries such as India and the rest of Southeast Asia.
Where this is concerned, the scenarios vary according to the base economic model, that is countries that have local industries as an alternative or those with an open economy without local production.
In the first case, most of these are not in a position to respond immediately to increases in production of more than two digits to cover the lack of imports, and if they are, the distortion of associated costs is so high that it presents a dilemma that borders on the legal and ethical.
In the countries of absolute dependence on imported goods, the reduction in port operations is added to the cut in supply, that is, without replacement horizons in the medium term, what is purchased and in transit is also restricted in the normal supply chain flow.
As far as food items are concerned, the same is true of processed foods coming mainly from Europe – products such as olive oils, canned & canned, etc) and it is amplified even in the case of frozen foods, whether packaged or bulk type (breads and deep-frozen pastries, etc).
The third axis of the survey is delivery. In all the cases surveyed, the operation is overwhelmed or seriously delayed.
The current Covid-19 crisis seems to be consolidating by force a trend that had been manifesting itself in sustained growth but with few digits, becoming the core of sales in many cases.
Of course, the structures were not/are not ready for such a change in record time. Neither the processes and procedures nor the systems as they had been operating to support such an overflow. It is important to consider that for the vast majority of retailers in Latin América, the method continues to be he store picking model in which it is carried out in part by their own staff (mostly) and to a lesser extent by delivery companies in partnership.
It is evident that there is a collapse of operational resources, with the choice between replenishing the shelves and supplying orders, within a general framework of health care, as we have already mentioned.
Shipments in many countries run delays of up to 15 days and even directly collapsed websites.
Latin American retail today is experiencing frantic moments of high volume of operations, with operational capacity not adapted to the critical situation and committed to logical procedures for assuring and caring for the health of its collaborators and customers, which further condition standard productivity.
Sales budget over-compliance, with growths of up to three digits were experienced until today in the surveyed countries. How long this momentum will last is difficult to predict in detail, but everything indicates that in the (very) short term, this over consumption will come to an end, and the compensation law will cruelly put negative sales figures, positioning a new medium-term scenario with a very high level of uncertainty, with the cost of structure and cash flow being points to look at with a magnifying glass.
Commitment, discipline of costs and new commercial and logistical strategies post-crisis are mandatory in the highest hierarchy with strategic responsibilities of the companies.

Murphy's Music has been providing music lessons to the Niagara Falls area since 2001. We offer instruction in guitar, bass guitar. piano, voice and drums.
Murphy's Music has been awarded "Best Music School" through the Reader's Choice Poll seven times.
Our instructors are working musicians who make their living through teaching and playing professionally.
Along with the practical instruction of each instrument we include musical theory as it applies to that instrument.
We feel it is important for our students to learn to read music. It creates a common language between teacher and student and ultimately makes it easier for the student to understand what they are doing as they learn how to play their instrument.
We generally do two recitals each school year. One around Christmas and one near year's end. The recitals are geared towards our piano students but our other students are encouraged to participate as well.
Unlike other schools, we at Murphy's Music believe family and friends should never pay to see their child perform at a recital. Therefore; our recitals are free of charge.
Over the years we have had many students go on to study music at the college and university level. Each year we have students who participate in local battle of the band competitions and both former and current students are out making money playing professionally in the area.


The Halley Academy works in collaboration with Citizens UK to develop young people into community leaders capable of engaging with their fellow students and wider community, and taking action to create meaningful change.
The students engage in a journey of conducting research to find out what the community needs and ways in which to change it. They apply practical tools to understand and create change, such as one-to-one meetings, negotiation, power analysis, public speaking, planning and taking action, among others.
In the last year alone, The Halley Academy student leaders spoke in multiple assemblies to gain community support to tackle misogyny and violence towards women and girls. In six months they told their story and took action on our council leaders, the Borough Commander, and the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on hate crime. Their actions directly informed a law review that was discussed in Parliament. They have developed outstanding leadership skills and have opened the door to justice for thousands of people. They have been featured in ITV News, The Evening Standard, The South London Press and The Mercury; and recently met the Chief Detective to explore how the police and The Halley Academy student leaders can work together for a safer Greenwich.
We would like to recruit more students to this exciting campaign group. This is open to all year groups from Year 7 to 6th Form.
If you would like more information about the Social Action Group and the work that it does, or you are interested in joining please see Ms Williamson, Assistant Principal (vickie.williamson@thehalleyacademy.org.uk).

Will This Self-employed Candidate Make A Terrible Employee?
As a recruiter or employer, one of the biggest curve ball resumes that you are likely to receive in the current climate is from a business owner or self-employed person who has decided to move back into an in-house role.
On the face, they can appear to be an entrepreneurial, independent and self motivated candidate, but there are often question marks around self-employed applicants based around their ability to work under someone else, work effectively in a team, and to re-adapt to an in-house work environment that they have already rejected. Another question is whether they are leaving their business because it failed, suggesting a degree of incompetence.
Of course, it would be harsh to condemn all self-employed candidates, as of course many can effectively move back into in-house roles, but others may not be able to, and below I have described several signs that the self-employed candidate you see before you may make a terrible employee.
For starters, try looking at why they left the corporate environment in the first place. If this is more push (disengaged with current employer),than pull (excited by new opportunity), then this is of some concern, because this shows that the reasons that they left could have been down to an inability to work effectively in a structured corporate environment, which does not bode well for working in your organization.
So probe the candidates and if they appeared to leave voluntarily due to a seeming inability to work in teams/for a manager or to conform to company procedures, then they might not be a good team player in a corporate environment. If this is a trend that has occurred on other occasions, they may have maverick tendencies or make persistently bad choices which suggest they may not be a highly engaged employee.
Further, if they have worked as a sole trader – and can show little evidence of project collaboration with peers and multiple stakeholders while self-employed – there may be a chance that they have become more hardened into their own way of working and less able to adapt or conform to corporate culture than when they left work.
Also, if they struggle to be able to effectively answer behavioral questions around effective team working, influencing, persuading and conflict management in a corporate environment – either during their employment or self employment – you'd have to be very concerned as to how well they could adapt to team working.
Next, if they are vague about their accomplishments as a self-employed individual in that they cannot supply annual turnover figures for the last three years and a clear record of customer satisfaction, recommendations, and fulfilled projects, you'd have to be very concerned as to whether they were an effective performer full-stop.
And, if it becomes clear that the reasons they are moving back in-house are due to a failure of the business, and those reasons are due to a lack of skills that you would need them to also display in-house, then there is a very strong chance they will make a terrible employee.
So, putting all this together, if you see all these signs and tendencies emerging within your self-employed job applicant – subject to further scrutiny – there's a good chance they might make a terrible employee. This does not mean they have to be written off entirely because if they are exceptional, you may be able to forge a standalone style role for them within the organization that plays to their entrepreneurial, self motivational and personally empowered strengths.

Hailee Steinfeld, Renner's Soon to be HAWKEYE Duet Partner
Tim Stevens September 10, 2019 Television Leave a Comment
In July, Marvel Studios and Disney + announced a streaming exclusive series HAWKEYE and fans immediately sat up and took notice. The iconography recalled the highly regarded Matt Fraction-David Aja series and the announcement revealed that Clint Barton would be joined by the Kate Bishop Hawkeye, a wildly popular character in her own right. Yesterday, reports began to surface that Disney is circling actor Hailee Steinfeld as the arrow wielding Bishop. To help you get to know the (hopefully) soon-to-be archer, we give you this handy primer to her work.

Steinfeld Hawkeye Starter Kit: TRUE GRIT
Her first film was also the first time most noticed her despite a couple of prior television roles. At just 14 years old, she delivers a steely performance for the Coen Brothers. Moreover, she goes toe to toe with the likes of Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon.
She also proves surprisingly comfortable and dexterous with a firearm. She may not need a gun in HAWEKYE but a familiarity with projectile firing weapons is definitely a positive.
This one is recommended as both a way to appreciate Steinfeld's work and a strong Coen Brothers effort. If you are a Western fan on top of that all, this might skate near nirvana for you.
Steinfeld Hawkeye Starter Kit: BEGIN AGAIN
Writer-director John Carney is evidently not a fan of this film. He has even gone as far as to blame Keira Knightley for being so bad in it that the whole movie suffered as a result. That's weird since a.) the movie is good (although admittedly the least of his defacto music trilogy) and b.) Knightley is very good in it. Oh well.
Steinfeld takes on the role of supporting player as the daughter of Mark Ruffalo's music producer. She does not have a ton of screentime or lines. However, what there is gives a good indication of how Bishop might interact with Jeremy Renner's Barton. Steinfeld's tete a tete's with her not wholly responsible dad have the same sort of feel of the relationship between the hyper competent Bishop and the bit of a mess Barton in the Fraction-Aja comic book series.

Ok, this movie is not very good. Her part is not particularly rewarding. However, her character's name is Zooey RENNER. Sooooooooooo, it's kinda like a sign, right?

I honestly think you can afford to miss these but they are two of her most popular and profitable films. As a showcase for her voice, they have some value. As a showcase for her acting, though, they largely sideline her for Anna Kendrick and many of the actors present in the first film.
Steinfeld Hawkeye Starter Kit: THE EDGE OF SEVENTEEN
This one deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as the likes of LADY BIRD, BOYHOOD, BOOKSMART as towering examples of teens growing up films.
If you have any doubt about Steinfeld's ability to plumb emotional depths, this one should clear it up for you. Kate Bishop is also a teen/late adolescent struggling with growing to independence. Even if the beats here are far different than the ones Bishop will be wrestling with, SEVENTEEN still shows off how well Steinfeld can tap into those feelings and situations.

Steinfeld Hawkeye Starter Kit: BUMBLEBEE
The best live action TRANSFORMERS movie. (Yes, I said. Yes, I'm right. Feel free to @ me, it won't change how right I am.)
While the kind of action one would expect the two Hawkeyes (Hawkseye?) to get into, it does feature the kind of humor and action mix I think is likely. There is some drama there too, but I'm hopeful HAWKEYE will strive for something a touch deeper, at least.
As a more recent actioner, it also shows Steinfeld has a certain acumen for the physical aspect of the work.
Steinfeld Hawkeye Starter Kit: SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE
Yes, it is only "voice work". However, it is voice work in a nearly perfect movie and Steinfeld is awesome in it. So there's that.
Also, it is probably the film on the list that best matches the tone of what we can expect from HAWKEYE and closely mirrors the mix of action, humor, and pathos the Disney + series will need to hit the target.
(Yes, that's a pun.)

Nocking the Arrow
In the nine years since her big screen debut in TRUE GRIT, Steinfeld has established herself as being able to work across genres and handle the unique challenges of each. At 23, she seems an excellent fit for the prematurely mature Bishop. She can play both the kid as a parent part of the role and the "can't help but get sucked in and admire" aspect of the role as well.
On a less serious note, she also has her own singing career so she and Renner can jam during camera resets. Who knows, maybe they'll end up releasing the most fire album of 2020?
Back to serious, Hailee Steinfeld is a smart experienced actor who the MCU would be lucky to count amongst its ranks.

Abstract: What if in discussion the critic refuses to recognize an emotionally expressed (alleged) argument of her interlocutor as an argument? In this paper, we shall deal with this reproach, which taken literally amounts to a charge of having committed a fallacy of non-argumentation. As such it is a very strong, if not the ultimate, criticism, which even carries the risk of abandonment of the discussion and can, therefore, not be made without burdening oneself with correspondingly strong obligations. We want to specify the fallacies of non-argumentation and their dialectic, i.e., the proper way to criticize them, the appropriate ways for the arguer to react to such criticism, and the appropriate ways for the critic to follow up on these reactions. Among the types of fallacy of non-argumentation, the emphasis will be on the appeal to popular sentiments (argumentum ad populum). Our aim is to reach, for cases of (alleged) non-argumentation, a survey of dialectical possibilities. By making the disputants themselves responsible for the place of emotion in their dialogues, we hope to contribute to a further development of the theory of dialectical obligations.
In this paper, we want to study the so-called fallacies of non-argumentation and the corresponding kind of fallacy criticism: the accusation of having presented no argument at all. This may count as a sort of ultimate criticism.
Generally, fallacy criticisms point out a problem and ask for repair so that in a metadialogue (a dialogue about the dialogue) one may deal with the problem. But an accusation of "non-argumentation" denies that there even is an argument. Therefore it seems to leave no room for any amendments or further discussion. Let us look at an example. It's from the ongoing discussion about gay marriage.
Commentator Michael Leon criticizes Boehner by a charge of non-argumentation: Boehner's repeated assertions that he feels this way because he believes this way is not an argument […] (Leon 2013, italics as in the original).
This case is not so simple as it may appear. For one thing, in order for a fallacy charge of non-argumentation to be appropriate, the accused should be in a position where he or she is indeed expected to provide an argument. A mere expression of one's opinion, where this opinion has not been called into question, cannot amount to a fallacy of non-argumentation. Leon seems to suppose that in the case he considers this condition has been met; probably, because politicians are supposed to argue. Further, there must really be no reconstructable argument. In Case 1, however, this is doubtful since Boehner invokes the teaching of his church, which amounts to a – be it rudimentary – argument from authority.
Fallacies of non-argumentation do not present argumentation. Other violations of the same rule do present argumentation but no argumentation relevant to the standpoint at issue (cases of ignoratio elenchi). So, even though covered by the so-called relevance rule, cases of non-argumentation are not merely cases of lack of relevance.
Characteristically, fallacies of non-argumentation substitute either pathos or ethos for logos (van Eemeren and Grootendorst, 1992, pp. 134-137). In the first case we have a play on the emotions of the audience (argumentum ad populum); in the second case an arousal of emotions of awe or diffidence (argumentum ad verecundiam).[ii] In our paper, we concentrate on the ad populum cases, which may stand proxy for all kinds of non-argumentation.
Since the fallacy of non-argumentation is characterized as substituting emotions for arguments, we are immediately concerned with the role of emotion in argument. We shall deal with this issue from a dialectical point of view (Section 2). Next, we need to circumscribe which moves in an argumentative discussion may – so we propose – count as cases of non-argumentation (Section 3). Having in this way pinpointed the fallacy, we do not want to stop there but continue our study by investigating the (actual or required) means for the critic to protest against it (Section 4). As we think that in some cases these protests can be answered, we turn to the possible reactions of the alleged ad populum arguer to the fallacy charge of his critic (Section 5) and to the critic's reply (Section 6). Generally, non-argumentation seems a bad thing, and its criticism a good thing. Yet, we shall try to point out some advantages of the former (Section 7) and some drawbacks of the latter (Section 8). Finally, we present a survey of the dialectic of non-argumentation (Section 9).
One possible view on the place of emotion in argument is to see it primarily as a source of fallacies. However, nowadays a number of subtle accounts of emotion in argument are available that allow for argumentative contributions that are emotional but non-fallacious. For instance, both Michael Gilbert (1997) and Douglas Walton (1992; 1999) have argued extensively that the use of emotions in argument need not be fallacious.
Our use of the term "emotion" is based on the explanation of that term given by Aaron Ben-Ze'ev in The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Emotion (2010). Ben-Ze'ev distinguishes between four components of an emotion (p. 47): feeling, cognition, evaluation, and motivation.
Feeling is the only component of emotion that is "non-intentional." In other words: One may undergo some feeling without the feeling being about something. The other three components are "intentional": They are always about something. Cognition refers to the information about the object of an emotion; evaluation refers to either a negative or a positive view that is taken of the target of the emotion; motivation refers to how an emotion may influence one's desires or make one take some action. Compared to emotions, the sentiments are of a more dispositional nature, such as enduring love or grief. Whenever we use the term emotion, we shall refer to both emotions and sentiments in Ben-Ze'ev's senses of those two terms.
We distinguish between two uses of an emotion in argument that are prima facie of dialectical relevance. The first concerns devices for the presentation of argumentation and the second devices for obtaining concessions from one's interlocutor. We discuss these two uses in turn.
In one of Gilbert's examples, Jill asks Jack: "But why should I marry you, Jack?" and Jack answers: "Because I love you as life itself" (1997, p. 83).
We underwrite Gilbert's view that emotion is "inextricable from the logic of the argument" (p. 40). Nevertheless, we conceive of emotional arguments as grounds that can be evaluated as acceptable or unacceptable and as having, or lacking, sufficient justificatory force. Suppose, Jack utters the words "I love you" in an emotional, non-detached, even somewhat theatrical manner. Then, in so far as the emotion of being-in-love plays an argumentative role, we propose to reconstruct Jack's argumentation as having the following propositional structure: "(1) Jill, you should marry me because (2) I love you as life itself; and (2) I love you as life itself because (3) I act and speak like someone who is really in love with you." Jack expresses the basic premise, proposition 3, by making this proposition true by his very behavior, tone of voice, mimicry, and so on. After all, Jill may challenge the acceptability of proposition 3 ("You act like a clown") or challenge that proposition 3 is a good reason for proposition 2 ("You might just be play-acting").
The second way, for a proponent, to use emotion in argument is to express emotion in order to obtain concessions from the addressees. Suppose for instance that a proponent arouses in his opponent a feeling of fear for nuclear power plants. Suppose further that this emotion suggests the cognition that nuclear power plants involve considerable risks, the evaluation that they are bad things, and the motivation for not letting them be built. Then, in so far as the opponent shows signs of her aroused emotion (she has a fearful look), she conveys her sympathy for these propositions. This may count as implicitly conceding these propositions. By being emotionally aroused, preferably noticeably so, it becomes harder for the opponent to criticize the position of the proponent.
Walton's (1992,1999) theory of emotion in argument deals mainly with examples of this second usage. Further, he distinguishes between a number of different subtypes of ad populum argumentation (1999, Chapter 7). In our view, some of these subtypes are susceptible to the "that's no argument" critique, especially if the emotion at hand is used to obtain concessions in a particularly manipulative way, to wit: appeal to popular sentiments; the rhetoric of belonging; common folks ad populum; and mob appeal. Interestingly, none of these types of argument are inherently fallacious, in Walton's view, even though he identifies possible misuses that may make them degenerate into fallacies. Like Walton (1999), we want to stress that, depending on situational features, ad populum arguments admit of fallacious instances, but also of legitimate ones, such as when they are used mainly as non-manipulative devices for obtaining concessions from one's opponent, and thereby as legitimate parts of one's defense.
1. There must be a context of dialogue (explicit or implicit) about some issue.
2. There must be a standpoint presented by one of the discussants.
3. This standpoint must have been called into question.
4. There must be a background of shared material and procedural commitments allowing argumentative exchanges on the issue.
5. There must be a proponent/protagonist who accepts a burden of proof for the standpoint. That is, we want to distinguish the fallacy of evading the burden of proof from the fallacy of non-argumentation. The latter fallacy is committed by an arguer who in principle recognizes his burden of proof, i.e. that he should present an argument, but nevertheless, when the time has come to do so, does not live up to this recognition. According to the pragma-dialectic theory of fallacies, the two fallacies are clearly distinct because they violate different rules and pertain to different stages of a critical discussion (van Eemeren and Grootendorst, 1992, 2004).[iii] All the same, given that arguers normally do not make an announcement to the effect that they do, or do not, acknowledge a burden of proof, it may sometimes be difficult, if not impossible, to distinguish between cases of these two fallacies in real-life examples.
7. Characterizes the ad populum variety of non-argumentation: The means the proponent uses consist of appeals to popular sentiments luring the interlocutor into accepting the standpoint.
One quite extreme reaction would be to just accept the non-argumentation as if it equaled argumentation. The opponent might even make her acceptance overt by venting an ad populum of her own.
Clearly, such a lenient attitude towards non-argumentation brings the risk that genuine considerations pro and con remain unexpressed. We will not further explore how such dialogues may develop.
To abandon the discussion would be another extreme response. The opponent may explain her abandonment by pointing out that the proponent, by committing the fallacy of non-argumentation, forfeits his chance at "winning" the dialogue.
We are not going to explore how such dialogues may develop either. We cannot, since the dialogue here stops.
Generally, if a proponent has advanced some nugget of argumentation, an opponent can request for an elaboration of the proponent's case by requesting him to offer more in support of his position. This is, however, not an option for an opponent who believes to have been confronted with non-argumentation. There is, as far as she can see, nothing to fortify.[v] However, it is possible that the opponent reckons with the possibility that she failed to fully grasp the proponent's response: Did she miss his argument or did he really fail to offer any evidence? In such a case she may request a clarification. This kind of move can be seen as an intermezzo preparing the parties for a critical exchange on the merits of what would turn out to be the proponent's actual argument.
As soon as it becomes clear to the opponent that the proponent is offering no argument whatsoever, she can inform the proponent that, as far as she reads his response, he failed to provide her with genuine argumentation and, to make an issue of it, say something to the effect of "That's no argument!" The filing of this charge of non-argumentation needs to be explored in some detail, for the ensuing possibilities for dialectical exchange constitute the gist of our characterization of non-argumentation as a dialectical move.
This message can be presented in different ways and we want to point out three variants. First, it can be presented in a straightforward manner, more or less instantiating the standard phrase that we introduced above but often doing so rather bluntly as exemplified by Leon in Case 1, above.
An example of this ad populum charge by means of parallel reasoning occurred in a recent performance of Theo Maassen's, a Dutch comedian known for his coarsely formulated criticisms (Case 4).
In the Netherlands, the feast of St Nicholas is among the most popular feasts, and it involves besides the character of St Nicholas, the character of his black servant: Black Pete (also plural: black Petes). The black Petes act as St Nicholas' helpers, acting in funny, not too smart, formerly quite threatening, but nowadays mostly extremely friendly ways. In the last few years, this character of Black Pete has been increasingly criticized as a racist element in the festivities.
If, in one way or other, a charge of non-argumentation has been presented, the next question is how to respond.
The proponent may either concede to have committed the fallacy or criticize the charge. In the first case, the proponent ought to retract or repair his fallacious move. In the second case, when he criticizes the charge as being unjustified, the allegedly fallacious move is retained.
Like other fallacy charges, charges of non-argumentation ("That's no argument!") have the force of assertions that may be called into question. When this assertion is called into question ("Why is it no argument?"), the burden of proof lies on the disputant who advanced the fallacy charge, i.e. the original opponent – now acting as the proponent of the charge; it is up to her to show, in a metadialogue, that there really was no argument offered in the original dialogue. In Case 2, Theo Maassen, as an opponent of the standpoint that Black Pete should be with us to stay, is clearly aware of this burden of proof and tries to discharge it by a parity of reasoning argument. It may of course be doubted whether he demonstrated that there was really no argument at all; perhaps he only made it plausible that the argument given was no good.
There is, in the metadialogue, no burden of proof on the original proponent to show that his alleged argument (decried as non-argumentation) is after all really an argument. But the proponent could voluntarily take on such a burden of proof saying, "But it really is an argument" and then, instead of retracting it, explain how his original contribution could be interpreted as presenting an argument or as a part of one. He could do so, for instance, by making the propositions expressed by the cognitive, evaluative, and motivational components of his emotion more explicit, or by elaborating other nuggets of argumentation contained in his emotional presentation.
Suppose, the original proponent challenges the original opponent's charge of non-argumentation; how can the opponent defend her charge to be correct? We distinguish between two ways she can do so.
First, she can hold that the proponent's contribution at issue did not express a proposition, either explicitly or implicitly, and without any proposition, there cannot have been an argument. This could be a plausible defense when the proponent simply laughed off the opponent's doubts about his thesis or when he merely yelled in response to her challenges. In cases such as these, although the proponent clearly shows emotion, the emotion remains rudimentary and is not connected with any clearly cognitive, evaluative, or motivational component.
Second, the opponent can hold that the proponent's contribution does not contain argumentation, because – although it is expressive of one or more propositions – the propositions expressed do not exemplify any known argumentation scheme.[vii] Note that this second defense of the charge of non-argumentation fits the characterization by van Eemeren and Grootendorst of non-argumentation as a contribution "that does not allow the reconstruction of an argument scheme that would establish an argumentative connection between the propositional content of the argumentation[viii] that is advanced and the proposition that is expressed in the standpoint" (2004, p. 171).
Of course, such a defense of the opponent's charge of non-argumentation is vulnerable to the reply that even though the argument does not fit any known (deductive or defeasible) argumentation scheme, it is an argument all the same, and –the proponent could add– in fact a good one.
In both cases, the proponent can criticize the opponent's defense of the fallacy charge, by challenging the opponent to make it plausible that no proposition has been expressed, or that no known argumentation scheme has been exemplified. However, he also has the option to explain to the opponent what proposition he intended to express or what familiar argumentation scheme he tried to exemplify or what his argumentation, though not exemplifying any familiar scheme, amounts to.
Generally, non-argumentation is thought of as the bad guy and criticism of non-argumentation as the good guy. But some qualifications are in order.
Might not a non-argumentative contribution have virtues of its own, possibly even dialectical virtues? We think so. First, the proponent may feel the need to vent his emotions or to arouse the opponent's emotions so as to clear the air, aiming to continue the exchange of reasons and critical responses as soon as both participants are rightly attuned to resolving their dispute. A good laugh, or a good cry, even if it happens to constitute non-argumentation, might be needed for the parties to accept one another as dialogue partners and to facilitate their argumentative exchange. Second, the aroused emotion, even if constituting by itself a fallacy of non-argumentation, can nevertheless be useful in so far as it may dispose a participant to raise the level of attention, and thus prepare her to seriously consider argumentation that will be presented later (cf. Rehg 1997). Third, the proponent may want to adjourn the current argumentative exchange and replace it by an emotional exchange because he supposes that an emotional intermezzo will, in the end, enhance a later argumentative discussion. Fourth, it may be advantageous to abandon the argumentative dialogue without intending to resume it, for the reason that other purposes prevail over dialectical ones. Not all disputes need to be resolved on the basis of arguments and critical tests and the participants could be right in supposing that they had better settle their current dispute by means of a non-argumentative exchange of emotions. For example, a valuable friendship or a love affair may sometimes best be served by leaving a dispute unresolved.
Generally, criticism, also fallacy criticism, is a good thing that helps to keep the argumentative process on track. But there is always the danger that the emotions that go with one's criticism will lead the interlocutor away from seriously considering the criticism and even make him abandon the discussion. This is especially the case when emotion-related fallacies such as non-argumentation are criticized. We do not want to say that one should never express a fallacy charge but rather that in many cases it may be worthwhile to consider whether other means are not more efficient to reach the goal of conflict resolution on the merits.
In the case of the ad populum variety of non-argumentation, one may think of first having a careful check whether the expressed popular sentiments do not serve one (or both) of the two legitimate purposes discussed in Section 2: Perhaps they serve as a mode of presentation of an argument or as a request to obtain concessions.
But even if no such function can be ascribed to the proponent's expression of popular sentiments, one may still opt for the strategy of asking for clarification (see Section 4) rather than for that of putting forward a fallacy charge. Clarification by the proponent could yield an argument – perhaps one that was not really there before – and thus the discussion would be put back on the argumentative track. After all, if no argument results, it will still be possible to charge the proponent with the fallacy of non-argument.
In case these attempts seem futile and the opponent decides that she wants to put forward the "That's no argument!" charge, she should consider the best way of presenting the charge (Section 4). Putting forward a fallacy charge of non-argumentation is extremely risky but if one has to do it, one should take care to do so in a rhetorically apt and face-saving way.
We hypothesize that a normative model for argumentative discussion that aims to include rules for dealing with non-argumentation as well as the examination of charges of non-argumentation, needs to provide the participants with such prima facie rights and obligations as make it possible to execute the dialogues indicated in the branches of this profile of dialogue. Thus, the model would implement the dialectical ideal that the discussants themselves are iIn charge of the place of emotion in their dialogues.
We thank the members of our audience at the 8th ISSA conference for their useful suggestions.
i. In an earlier publication, the fallacies of non-argumentation were labeled as those using "nonargumentative means of persuasion," and Commandment 4 was formulated as Rule 4 of the Rules for Critical Discussion (van Eemeren & Grootendorst 1992). According to the pragma-dialectical theory, violations of this Code of Conduct constitute fallacies in the sense of being a hindrance for resolving a conflict of opinion by argumentation.
ii. There are other kinds of ad populum and ad verecundiam, which are not specimens of non-argumentation. For instance, the present kind of ad populum should not be confused with that which consists of an appeal to the large number of adherents to an opinion in order to justify the opinion (appeal to popularity). This latter kind of ad populum amounts to a violation of the Argumentation Scheme Rule (van Eemeren and Grootendorst, 1992, pp. 161, 165-168, 213).
iii. Evading the burden of proof is a fallacy of the opening stage whereas non-argumentation is one of the argumentation stage (van Eemeren & Grootendorst, 1992, pp. 209, 210; 2004, pp. 167-168, 171, 191-192). Van Eemeren and Grootendorst (1992, p. 209-210, 216) mention appeal to diffidence ("personal guarantee of the rightness of the standpoint," "Argumentum ad verecundiam2"), but not appeal to popular sentiments, as a way to evade the burden of proof. Both are mentioned as variants of non-argumentation (1992, p. 210, "parading one's own qualities" and " playing on the emotions of the audience;" p. 216 "Argumentum ad verecundiam3;" p. 213, "Argumentum ad populum2").
iv. Note that from a theoretical viewpoint what she conceives as non-argumentation could be just a case of very weak or bad argumentation, or even a completely legitimate move, instead of non-argumentation.
v. In his criticism of Case 1, Leon disregards a nugget of argumentation based on the authority of the church, i. e. he does not consider it as an argument.
vi. We recognize that the utterance "That's no argument" can be and is also used to charge the interlocutor with having provided argumentation that is probatively irrelevant or argumentation that, though relevant, is overly weak. In this paper, we restrict our attention to occurrences of this charge in which the opponent can be taken to mean literally what she says.
vii. We use argumentation scheme in an inclusive sense to encompass both deductively valid patterns of reasoning as well as merely defeasibly valid (or cogent) patterns of argumentation.
viii. I.e. the set of alleged reasons.
ix. For brevity, we omit some options relating to clarification and abandonment.

Teddington RNLI rescue injured woman from stricken boat on weir
On Monday 5 February 2018 at 8:17pm Teddington RNLI were called to a shout involving a woman stuck on her boat by the weir at Teddington Lock.
RNLI/Paul Stallard
Anne thanks Teddington RNLI Crew
It was a cold, damp night and all the attending crew were naturally concerned as to the condition of the casualty with the inherent dangers of the weir. This was especially the case after the previous few days of heavy rainfall, which had made the flows at the weir that much stronger.
As helm Jon Barker (Jon B) explained: 'We were called to the casualty, Anne, who was stuck on the weir alone in her boat Danubia at Teddington Lock. Jon Chapman 'Chappers' (helm on the second boat) and I made the decision to split our services as a two-boat launch was requested by our Deputy Launching Authority (DLA) on the night, Paul Roach. One was launched to cover the boat and one to cover anything downstream of the weir should it accidentally go through.'
Unusually, Teddington RNLI has two D-Class inshore lifeboats (ILBs), D-785 Peter Saw and D-743 Olwen and Tom, primarily to deal with incidents on and around the weir (though this time the second boat crew were in a relief boat as D-785 is undergoing routine maintenance at Poole).
As Jon B continued: 'On arrival in boat one, we could see that the casualty vessel with Anne on board was perilously close to an open gate on the weir but had been snagged on a safety line at water level. We made contact with Anne to ascertain her condition. She was cold, slightly unsure as to her position and had bruised her ribs in attempting to make the boat safe.'
'In our assessment the boat was far from safe and we realised we needed to get Anne off the boat as our first priority. My crew on boat one consisted of Harry Eaton and Gianna Saccomani. In order to get access to the casualty vessel, we needed to manoeuvre the lifeboat into the same position as the casualty vessel so we employed a standard RNLI technique of veering down using a nearby tree as an anchor point.
'We were able to quickly move the lifeboat to sit across the stern of the casualty vessel and encourage Anne to leave her boat and join us on the lifeboat. We were then able to use our attachment to the tree to spring the lifeboat away from the danger of the weir.'
'Borrowing crew member Andy Cowell from boat two we then proceeded to repeat the veering down onto the casualty vessel to initially try and move the boat away from danger but decided to avoid any further risk and just make the vessel fast and inform the Environment Agency who recovered the vessel the following day.'
Luckily because it was dark I don't think Anne realised the extent of the danger she was in and she remained very calm throughout. Our excellent training at Teddington has prepared us for exactly this type of rescue. We were able to take on the challenge with a minimum risk to our own safety.'
As helm on boat two, 'Chappers' commented: 'As soon as we knew we had an incident at Teddington Weir, Jon B, as lead helm, took the decision to launch our second lifeboat. The weir is the largest on the River Thames, with twenty gates and a high degree of flow at many times of the year, presenting the biggest hazard on our patch.'
'My boat, crewed with Andy Cowell and Chris Gibson, was tasked to head directly to the large pool below the weir and we arrived there quickly, just as Jon B's crew were getting into position.'
'Throughout the great work done by Jon B's crew both in evacuating the casualty and in making the vessel safe, my crew's job was to hold position in the strong flow from the weir outfall below the stricken vessel, in readiness for any unintended, and potentially very dangerous, fall into the weir pool either by the casualty or one of our crew. This is a vital and hopefully unexciting part of any weir operations at Teddington! And thankfully it was unexciting this time too!'
Gianna and the Teddington Shore Crew, who attended, all agreed that as it was such a cold night they should take Anne into the Tide End Cottage pub to get warm before the ambulance arrived, rather than stay outside in the freezing air.
The Tide End is the pub where the Teddington RNLI Crew meet every Tuesday night after training. They know all the crew on first name terms and are very welcoming. However, Rebecca Winton, bar staff at the Tide End, was a little surprised of course to see the RNLI Crew in full Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) walking into the pub with Anne. Rebecca was quick to offer a cup of tea for Anne to keep warm. Where would us Brits be without our tea in times of crisis?
Rebecca was in fact very complimentary about the RNLI's efforts: 'I think that RNLI Teddington do a great job and I was glad that the RNLI Crew felt comfortable enough to come to the pub to ask for help. A cup of tea is nothing to the Tide End pub but it obviously meant a lot to the casualty as it warmed her up whilst waiting for the ambulance.'
As Gianna reflected after the 'shout': 'It was so rewarding to see the look of relief on Anne's face when we managed to get her off her boat onto ours and I was able to reassure her and stay with her until I handed her over to London Ambulance.'
The work of Teddington RNLI did not just stop after Anne had been made safe with the London Ambulance Service. Anne came down to Teddington Lifeboat Station the following day and relived her experience to say how thankful she was to all the crew involved.
As Anne revealed: 'I had only bought my boat three days before from Shepperton Marina. I got to the boat nice and early but had a few problems with the engine. I set off down the Thames and all was fine but I noticed a few weirs on the way, but there did not seem to be much signage to indicate dangers of the weir.
'The engine cut out for some reason and a man from the local canoeing school tried to help me restart the engine, which he did. I then went through Molesey Lock. It was just starting to get dark and I made the wrong decision to go to the left as I got to Teddington and could only see the water starting to disappear.'
I lost a bit of control of my boat and it would not come back as the reverse was very weak. Then I realised it was probably a weir. There was a pole nearby. The boat was to the side. I was going backwards and forwards but not getting anywhere. I hooked the rope round a pole in the water and now I could not get onto dry land. I tied the boat up as securely as I could, switched the engine off and sat in the boat for a while, I was panicking a little at this point.'
'The engine would not start. I slipped and hurt my ribs. I was in agony and thought this is ridiculous! I phoned 999. I said I had fallen and was in pain and my boat was stuck. As soon as I said that, they called out the RNLI and you were there within minutes. It was such a relief.'
'It was amazing seeing the RNLI. It whizzed round the corner and I was rescued in no time at all. Everyone was understanding and Gianna calmed me down. We went to the pub and had a cup of tea. Having a woman in the crew was very comforting but also all the men on the crew were very helpful too until the ambulance arrived. The Ambulance said I was cold and hypothermic and when I got to A&E I was checked out and my ribs were ok I went home in a taxi.'
'I was surprised to drive a boat into a weir and it was hard to see the danger as on the map it was not that clear. I have no boat experience really. You have to really know what you are doing on the Thames. If I could have done I would have followed a more experienced person along the Thames, It looks easy and I did know about the tides and I thought that was all I had to do. It's only upriver. The RNLI were great. They were all sympathetic as you can feel a bit of a prat but all were very kind to me. I have now got a lot of experience of the river alright!'
Following the rescue, the very next day, a crew from RNLI Teddingon helped the Environment Agency to recover the boat. As Tim James, helm at RNLI Teddington explained:
'We were requested by the Environment Agency to assist in the recovery of the casualty vessel from above the weir at Teddington. The vessel was stuck on the safety lines, designed to stop vessels from actually going over the weir. And thankfully in this case, they did just that. We attempted to push the line down and under the keel of the boat, with the EA tug on one side and the lifeboat in the other, but it was stuck fast.'
The decision was then taken to undo the bottle screw holding the rope in place, whilst the vessel was secured via the rope on its stern,that had been put in place by the RNLI crew during the initial rescue. The EA attempted to do this but it was difficult to reach down to it from their tug as it stands much higher in the water.'
So we manoeuvred safely alongside the wooden pile and the next safety line, secured ourselves to the post and from this position we could undo the bottle screw and release the line. This allowed the crew of the tug and our crew member on the bank to pull the casualty vessel free.'
'We then re-attached the safety line and recovered back to the station for tea. Excellent team work from Gianna and Harry who were both part of the initial rescue and Toby Banks. Much thanks received from the EA and the Coastguard for assisting with the recovery of the casualty vessel and its safe return to the owner.'
So a completely satisfactory outcome for all involved.
And where would we be without tea? It's always time for another cuppa…

All Quiet On The Western Front Comrades Analysis
Topics: World War II, Fiction, World War I, Soldier, War, Life / Pages: 2 (458 words) / Published: Nov 29th, 2015
A comrade is a friend or companion, to a soldier it means much more than that. Throughout the novel All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque, the soldiers learn through numerous events on the front that their fellow comrades mean everything to them. In a place so horrific as the front their comrades are all they have that they can rely on and through this they have complete trust in one another.

These voices, these few quiet words, these footsteps in the trench behind me recall me at a bound from the terrible loneliness and fear of …show more content…
The horrifying things that they have seen and been through together has drawn them together on intimate levels. Paul states before he goes off on his leave and says goodbye to Kat, "I know their every step and movements; I would recognize them at any distance" (155). Though all the comrades are close, Paul and Kat have a special relationship. Paul looks up to Kat and even sees him as some sort of a father figure. Kat keeps Paul fed at all times and helps him through his despair when needed. Kat also keeps paul alive from gas, bombs and bullets. One of the most meaningful experiences the men share with each other is when they cook the goose. "We sit opposite one another, Kat and I, two soldiers in shabby coats,cooking a goose in the middle of the night. We don't talk much, but I believe we have a complete communion with one another than even lovers have."(94). This moment solidified Paul and Kat's relationship and drew them closer than the other

All Quiet On The Western Front: An Analysis
The novel, "All Quiet on the Western Front" is seen as an anti-war novel that shows war being devastating to our countries and more debilitating to our soldiers. The novel shows German soldiers being disturbed mentally, physically and socially for the rest of their lives. War can also cause the soldier to show detachment from civilian life. When one is put into a violent environment, it can directly/indirectly affect one's physical and mental composure. When one is put into a brutal environment….

assumptions. With similar views, Erich Maria Remarque published the novel All Quiet on the Western Front after WWI through the perspective of Paul Baümer, a German soldier who experiences the true reality of war. Although war is often glorified and patriotic soldiers are fueled by their strong sense nationalism, in reality true horrors and pains of war become overwhelming, ultimately forcing many to find comfort amongst fellow comrades in order to survive. War is portrayed as heroic and the notion of….
once said, "All wars are civil wars because all men are brothers" (BrainyQuotes). Every man no matter what country he is from is interrelated. Whether someone is Christian or Catholic, they both believe in God; whether an American is Democratic or Republic they both agree on a democracy, and whether someone is Chinese or German, both are human beings. Throughout war every army man faces the horrors of watching their comrade's die and the act of firing on a fellow human being. In All Quiet on the Western….
