THERE IS NOTHING like a day of orchard hopping to get the juices going about the 2015 apple crop. We arrived at Carlson Orchards in Harvard, Massachusetts, around noon on a beautiful August day. Frank Carlson, who runs the orchard with his two brothers, Bruce and Bobby, had Greek salads waiting for us at a picnic table, but he had to excuse himself several times to take phone calls or fill orders for peaches. At 72, Frank is always on the move, yet in between interruptions he patiently offers a steady stream of information and observations about apples and tree fruit.
The big news of the day was about dreaded hail. A series of vicious storms had swept across much of the region the day before, and growers were now looking for news of their neighbors, comparing notes, and looking for damage.
Just a few seconds of hail can injure an apple crop, shredding the leaves and nicking the fruit. A bad storm can wipe out an entire orchard in less than a minute. Fortunately Carlson Orchards was not hit, but there were scattered reports of hail in central Massachusetts.
It has been a good spring and summer growing season so far, but there are still several critical weeks before the main harvest begins in September. The growers can only hope that they get through this period without getting hit by heavy winds, which can knock apples off the tree, or hail.
But Carlson Orchards, like most of New England's orchards, has an outstanding crop. We drove through the orchard and stopped to inspect Ginger Gold, Honeycrisp, and Macoun trees, all loaded with developing fruit. We followed the shrill note of a red-tailed hawk and watched it soar above the orchard. The raptor is welcome here, as it helps keep down the rodent population. Every living creature wants a bite of these apples, it seems, from deer and turkeys to mice, bugs, and bacteria.
Frank points out a sun spot on one apple, the fruit's equivalent of sunburn. There are tiny nicks from hail on just a few apples, not enough to worry about. He cuts a third apple open to reveal some discoloring inside. These are minor flaws. All things considered, it appears to be an excellent crop.
Other than the threat of hail, the big unknowns now are size and color, for which the next month's weather will play a critical role. Timely rain in the next few weeks will help the apples size properly. Cool nights are needed to draw the apple's sugars closer to its skin, and to develop red color.

It is early August, but the earliest apples have already come and gone, starting with two rare ancient apples of Russian descent, Red Astrachan and Yellow Transparent. Their age and parentage are unknown, but they are believed to go back to at least the 17th century. Both apples ripen in late July, and they are gone in a few short weeks.
Red Astrachan's mild, tart flavor is considered especially good in sauce and pies. Yellow Transparent is sweet with a hint of tartness. Both heirlooms can satisfy a craving for fresh apples if eaten soon after they are picked, but their flesh softens almost as quickly as a blueberry or peach.
A newer short-season apple called Vista Bella was being picked in late July at Red Apple Farm in Phillipston, Massachusetts. Developed at Rutgers University in 1956 from a mix of five rare apples (July Red, Melba, Sonora, Starr, and Williams), Vista Bella was not released commercially until 1974. Its flavor is mild, with a hint of raspberry.
Almost as rare as the Russian apples are Lodi, a tart, yellow-green apple with soft flesh, developed from a cross of Montgomery and Yellow Transparent in New York state in 1924, and Quinte, a Canadian apple from 1964 resulting from a Red Melba-Crimson Beauty cross. Quinte is mostly red, firmer than Lodi, with a nicely balanced flavor.
Brookfield Orchards in North Brookfield, Massachusetts, has a small supply of both apples, and Diana Nydam, a member of the fifth generation of the farm started by Arthur Lincoln in 1918, saved a few of each for us to sample and photograph. Brookfield Orchards, too, was spared from hail and is looking at a better-than-average crop.
Two of the next apples to arrive on the scene, Jersey Mac and PaulaRed, are more widely available and keep better than the other varieties in this early season group. Despite its name, Jersey Mac does not have McIntosh heritage; its parentage includes Melba, Wealthy, Starr, and Red Rome.
Like Vista Bella, Jersey Mac was developed at Rutgers University in 1956, and released commercially in 1971. Jersey Mac has a mild, sweet flavor, with hints of strawberry. While it does not store well compared to later apples, it lasts longer than the first apples to appear, especially if kept cold.
PaulaRed is of similar vintage as Jersey Mac, discovered in Michigan in 1960 and released commercially in 1968. It is a chance seedling discovered near an orchard of McIntosh trees, and its sweet-tart flavor and red color with green highlights suggest that its parentage may include McIntosh.
The real Macs are just a few short weeks away.
IN BETWEEN visits to Carlson and Brookfield Orchards, we made a brief stop at J. P. Sullivan and Co. in Ayer, the biggest apple packing and shipping facility in New England. Big things are happening at J. P. Sullivan this summer, including a major solar installation and a brand new packing line that is scheduled to go online August 20.
This once-in-a-generation investment speaks volumes about the company's confidence in the apple industry, and will give apples an even smoother, safer ride as they are cleaned, sorted, and packed for shipping to the region's grocery stores.
If you are considering orchard hopping this weekend, here are two events of note:
THE OPENING RECEPTION for the third Art In The Orchard, a biennial outdoor sculptural exhibit at Park Hill Orchard in Easthampton, Massachusetts, is this Saturday, August 15, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. This walking orchard tour features the works of more than 20 artists from around the region, whose sculptures are nestled in and among the apple trees. The sculptures will remain on view through October 15.
Carlson Orchards celebrates its 13th Annual Peach Festival Saturday, August 15, and Sunday, August 16, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., rain or shine. There will be live music, hay rides to the peach orchards, product sampling, and a cookout. For more information, call 978-456-3916.

TWO RECENT BOOKS by Russell Steven Powell, senior writer, and Bar Lois Weeks, executive director of the New England Apple Association, explore the history of apple growing in the region and look at the nation's apple industry.
Apples of New England (Countryman Press) is an indispensable resource for anyone searching for apples in New England orchards, farm stands, or grocery stores — or trying to identify an apple tree in their own backyard.
The book contains color photographs by Weeks and descriptions of more than 200 apples discovered, grown, or sold in New England, accompanied by notes about flavor and texture, history, ripening time, storage quality, and best use. Apples of New England offers practical advice about rare heirlooms and newly discovered apples.
Apples of New England includes chapters on the rich tradition of apple growing in New England, and on the "fathers" of American apples, Massachusetts natives John Chapman ("Johnny Appleseed") and Henry David Thoreau. Apples of New England presents the apple in all its splendor: as a biological wonder, as a super food, as a work of art, and as a cultural icon.
America's Apple (Brook Hollow Press) tells a rich and detailed story about apple growing in America, from horticulture to history to culinary uses. Powell writes about the best ways to eat, drink, and cook with apples. He describes the orchard's beauty and introduces readers to some of the family farms where apples are grown today, many of them spanning generations.
America's Apple looks at how America's orchards are changing as a result of the trend toward intensive planting and the trademarking of new varieties, and what that means to consumers. Powell also writes about the fragile underpinnings of modern agriculture: the honeybees needed to pollinate the crop and the labor required to pick it, plus new and exotic pests and increasingly volatile weather.
Apples of New England and America's Apple are available in hardcover at fine bookstores and orchards and online. America's Apple is also available in paperback.

WITH THE 2015 pick-your-own season upon us, now is a good time to review our four-minute video about how to prepare for your orchard visit:
Happy picking!

THE APPLE'S unparalleled versatility as a food is well documented. Apples are good eaten fresh or cooked, can be served at any course of any meal, and pair well with most any food, sweet or savory. But apples are also cultural icons cherished for their beauty and history, the subject of a number of our most enduring stories and myths.

A web search for "images of apples in art" reveals hundreds, if not thousands, of pictorial renditions of this worldly fruit, including several by such noted painters as Claude Monet (Apples and Grapes), and especially Paul Cézanne, for whom the apple held great fascination (Dish of Apples, Still Life with Apples and Pears, Still Life with Jar, Cup, and Apples, and Still Life with Apples and Oranges).
The orchard can be a beautiful setting for sculpture, too. Art in the Orchard is an installation of 20 sculptures nestled in among the apple trees and gardens at Park Hill Orchard in Easthampton, Massachusetts, with a gorgeous backdrop of the Holyoke Range. The artwork ranges from large to small, realist to abstract, serious to whimsical, reflecting materials as diverse as the artists' interpretations. It is an innovative way to heighten the already powerful sensory experience of the orchard, combining food for the body with food for the soul.
BEFORE REFRIGERATION, most apple growers planted many varieties to extend the season, some that ripened early or late, others because they stored well over the winter. As people have become more interested in learning about and tasting unusual apples from the past, some of these long-forgotten varieties are experiencing a revival. Three examples are Red Astrachan, Melba, and Yellow Transparent.
Red Astrachan apples can be an almost solid red. (Bar Lois Weeks photo)
Red Astrachan is one of the earliest varieties to ripen; in parts of New England its season has already passed. A medium-sized apple, it has a thin, yellow skin streaked with shades of red, covered with a bluish bloom.
Red Astrachan is moderately juicy, with a tart flavor that makes it more attractive for cooking than fresh eating. It is considered especially good for pies and applesauce. It does not store well, and its crisp flesh can become mealy soon after they are ripe (they are even known for breaking their skin when over-ripe).
A Russian apple, Red Astrachan migrated westward, first to Sweden, on to England in 1816, and arriving in America in 1835, one of four Russian apples (with Alexander, Duchess of Oldenburg, and Tetofsky) received by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society from the London Horticultural Society.
Red Astrachan's popularity peaked around 1900, when it was widely grown around the world. It was especially popular in the American south. Its parentage is unknown.
Melba apple (Bar Lois Weeks photo)
Melba's path to New England was southward; it was developed in 1898 by the Central Experiment Farm in Ottawa, Canada, and introduced commercially in 1909. Lightly sweet with a hint of tartness, Melba's fine, white flesh and thin skin give it a pleasing crispness, and it is good for both fresh eating and cooking. Its skin is yellow to lime in color, with streaks and blushes of pink and red.
Melba's parents are McIntosh and Liveland Raspberry. Also known as Lowland Raspberry or Red Cheek, Liveland Raspberry is an early season apple that originated in the Lithuanian province of Lievland. Now rare, it was introduced into the United States in 1883. While McIntosh contributes to Melba's fragrant, sweet-tart flavor, Liveland Raspberry influences its early ripeness, and supplies its tender flesh and thin skin.
Yellow Transparent apple (Bar Lois Weeks photo)
Yellow Transparent, like Red Astrachan, has Russian roots, imported to the United States in 1870. It made an early impression in New England; S. A. Beach in The Apples of New York, Volume II, writes that Yellow Transparent's merits "were first brought to notice in this country by Dr. T. H. Hoskins, of Newport, Vermont."
The reason for Yellow Transparent's name is evident when sunlight strikes a ripe apple on the tree, seeming to illuminate the fruit as it passes through. But the variety has endured for more than this unusual quality. Beach describes Yellow Transparent as "one of the best of the extra early apples, being excellent for culinary use and acceptable for dessert."

Moderately crisp and juicy, Yellow Transparent has white flesh and a light, sweet flavor with just a hint of tartness. Yellow Transparent should be used soon after they are harvested, as they do not store well. Their parentage is unknown.
THE RECIPE for this eggless Molasses Apple Cake was adapted from From A Monastery Kitchen (Ligouri/Triumph), a natural foods cookbook by Brother Victor-Antoine d'Avila-Latourrette, a resident monk at Our Lady of the Resurrection Monastery in upstate New York.
The cake has a rich, dense flavor and texture, and it goes nicely served with a little vanilla ice cream, Greek yogurt, or whipped cream.
I used one Red Astrachan and one Melba apple. For their nutritive value, I almost always leave the peels on.
Molasses Apple Cake
1-1/2 c to 2 c apples (about 2 medium to small apples), thinly sliced
3/4 c molasses
1/4 c butter
1/2 c hot water
1-1/2 c white flour
1/2 c sugar (or 1/4 c sugar, 1/8 c stevia)
1 T baking powder
1 t cinnamon
1/2 t cloves
1/4 t nutmeg
Preheat oven to 350°. Grease 8×12 pan.
In saucepan, cook apples in molasses on medium heat until tender, stirring occasionally.
Melt butter in hot water in large mixing bowl. Sift dry ingredients and gradually stir in to liquid (the mixture will be fairly dry). Stir in molasses and apples until dry ingredients are blended.
Pour batter into prepared pan, and bake for about 30 minutes. Serve warm.

The New Warlord in the White House
John Bolton has spent his long career doing one thing: trying to start wars. Now that he's Trump's national security advisor, he can.
John Bolton speaks during CPAC 2018, February 22, 2018 in National Harbor, MD. Alex Wong / Getty
"John Bolton is the kind of man with whom I would want to stand at Armageddon."
So said Bolton's mentor, former senator and forever-segregationist Jesse Helms, describing the man he took under his wing during the Reagan years and helped set on the path to political power. Helms, who died in 2008, will never get to live out his doomsday fantasies.
The rest of us may not be so lucky.
Bolton's appointment as national security advisor, a post that requires no congressional confirmation, is distinctly alarming, not least because the man currently running the United States has a habit of blithely going along with whatever the last person whispering in his ear told him to do. In this case, that man once said he thinks "too many Americans don't live in a climate of fear."
Bolton's worldview has always been terrifying, but at least when he served in the Reagan and Bush administrations his ability to put it into practice was tempered by the fact that his posts had some limits. As national security advisor, Bolton will not just have Trump's ear on issues ranging from national security to foreign policy, but will also help coordinate the government's responses to crises like terrorist attacks and pandemics.
Bolton's well-known love of war is alarming enough, but the rest of his career gives us even more reason to worry.
As a college kid, Bolton worked on and enthusiastically supported Barry Goldwater, another ultraconservative whose views on military intervention were markedly to the right of most life on earth. In 1966, he penned an editorial for his school paper called "No Peace in Vietnam," which warned against "spurious" hopes for an end to hostilities.
But his support for the Vietnam War didn't extend to actually fighting in it. Twenty-five years later, he claimed he didn't enlist because he considered the war "already lost."
Bolton eventually joined Reagan's Justice Department as an assistant attorney general, where, in a case of grim foreshadowing, he spent a fair amount of his time keeping inconvenient information from getting out.
When Democrats requested internal memos that William Rehnquist, Reagan's nominee for chief Supreme Court Justice, had written while serving in Nixon's Department of Justice, Bolton refused to release them, citing executive privilege. Decades later, FBI files showed that Bolton was involved in getting the FBI to spy on witnesses who were set to testify against Rehnquist.
When the chair of the House Judiciary Committee asked for documents related to the unfolding Iran-Contra affair, Bolton again refused, saying they were too "highly classified" for the committee's staff to peruse. When several Reagan appointees (including Bolton's boss) came under investigation for that scandal and others, Bolton attacked the system of court-appointed independent counsels as "out of control," claiming that "nothing is too trivial for these people to investigate."
Bolton also found time to bully a female subordinate when she asked for four extra months of unpaid leave on doctor's orders to recover from her recent pregnancy, her second in five years. The forty-two year-old lawyer, who had drafted a Supreme Court brief the day she went into labor, had her request denied by Bolton, who then accused her of making a fraudulent medical claim and gave her the choice of a demotion or a firing. But Bolton wasn't being hard-hearted: as he explained to the press, his forty-two year-old wife had also just given birth. Besides, the department's leave policy was more generous than most private firms.
During the Clinton years, Bolton joined in on that age-old DC tradition of facilitating government corruption. As head of the corporate-funded National Policy Forum (NPF), an "issues development subsidiary" of the Republican National Committee (RNC), Bolton sent then-party chair Haley Barbour notes about which corporate executives to shake down for money. Many of the names on the list were business people who had participated in NPF conferences that happened to promote their company's preferred views on government regulation and other issues. Coincidentally, the conferences' attendees often included key Republican congressmen who were legislating on those very issues.
In 1997, it emerged that the Taiwanese government had served as middleman for a donation to the NPF from a government-linked Taiwanese foundation. This is far from the only example of Bolton's connection to Taiwan; for decades he has advocated for the United States to recognize Taiwan as an independent country. In this, Bolton goes further than most other Republicans, since China has long insisted it would consider such recognition an act of war.
In the nineties, the Taiwanese government paid Bolton $30,000 to write three research papers about Taiwan and the United Nations. During the same period, he also appeared at congressional hearings calling for recognizing the island. Bolton insisted they were separate transactions and never registered as a foreign agent because he had been told he was simply "providing legal services."
The same decade witnessed the rarest of phenomena: a few Bolton-penned columns urging the United States not to intervene in a foreign country. In this case, Bolton wanted to stay out of Haiti, then controlled by a brutal three-man junta. In a 1994 Washington Post op-ed, Bolton criticized the concept of "nation building," and argued the only "central American interest" in the country was stopping refugees from ending up in Florida. He even called on the United States to lift sanctions, which simply "hurt the people of the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere."
Bolton would go on to disregard this advice for the rest of his career.
Don't Call Him a Neoconservative
Bolton's op-ed on Haiti offers a glimpse of his ideology, which is to aggressively promote what he sees as American interests by any means necessary. He chafes at the "neoconservative" label, pointing out that he was never a liberal nor has he ever sympathized with the Wilsonian strain in neoconservatism. This is true insofar as Bolton has abstained from neoconservatives' rhetorical paeans to the spread of democracy and freedom.
Instead, Bolton described himself to the American Interest in 2007 as "a national-interest conservative." "I look to define and defend American interests, and to protect and expand them," he explained.
In other words, Bolton is the worst of both worlds: a nationalist and an interventionist. This orientation makes him a perfect fit for Trump, who has repeatedly said he would bomb Iraq and then take its oil. Perhaps it's no surprise that Robert Mercer, the billionaire most intimately involved with Trump's campaign, has also donated millions to Bolton's Super PAC over the past few years.
If Bolton appears to have no real principles (witness him chide an interviewer for saying, in a discussion on Iraq, that he preferred to live in a dictatorship rather than a failed state, then elsewhere lament the fact that Egypt's dictatorship was replaced with democracy) that's because his guiding principle is the ruthless exercise and expansion of American power
"Conservative foreign policy is unabashedly pro-American, unashamed of American exceptionalism, unwilling to bend its knee to international organizations, and unapologetic about the need for the fullest range of dominant military capabilities," he wrote in Human Events in 2009. "Its diplomacy is neither unilateralist nor multilateralist, but chooses its strategies, tactics, means, and methods based on a hard-headed assessment of U.S. national interests, not on theologies about process."
In other words, use diplomacy and international institutions when it suits you, and, when the situation calls for it, use whatever military force you see fit. The important thing is to get your way.
Bolton has said he views the United Nations "as an instrument for helping to advance US foreign policy," and that he's not against sharing sovereignty in alliances if it "leaves power with the United States." He believes the United States should choose the international organizations it works with in order to get the results it wants. And if that fails, well, no one's ever accused Bolton of being reluctant to resort to force.
A Broken Record
In the later nineties, Bolton served as senior vice president of the American Enterprise Institute — "a Bush administration-in-waiting." Then, during the 2000 election, he stepped in to help Bush claim Florida. ("I'm with the Bush-Cheney team and I'm here to stop the count," he reportedly told poll workers.) After securing the presidency, Bush nominated him to the State Department to serve as undersecretary for arms control and international security.
Bolton said he took the position despite lacking a background in arms control because "given the priority candidate Bush had put on withdrawal from the ABM [Anti-Ballistic Missile] Treaty, it would be an exciting place to be." He later said that he "spent six years trying to get rid of the 'arms control' part of the title." This statement sounds like a joke until you look at his record. One of his first actions was opposing a UN draft accord that would have banned private ownership of military weapons, like grenade launchers. His opposition sent shock waves through the international community, but the accord was duly watered down.
Bolton also led the Bush administration's withdrawal from the ABM Treaty over Russia's objections, explaining that the United States wouldn't negotiate new "formal agreements of hundreds of pages that count every warhead and pound of throw-weight." He later scuttled a conference devoted to adding an enforcement mechanism to the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention. This move also created worldwide outrage, with the Federation of American Scientists calling it "sabotage."
Before it disbanded, Bolton used the conference as an opportunity to level baseless accusations against a handful of states, including North Korea, of having built their own biological weapons. The comments horrified the South Korean government, which thought the accusations would damage their "Sunshine Policy" with the North.
Bolton was a hard-line voice against negotiation with North Korea and Iran, shocking others in the administration, including Bush's deputy secretary of state, Richard Armitage. According to the Atlantic Council's Barbara Slavin, when envoys from the United Kingdom, France, and Germany briefed Bolton — the official in charge of nonproliferation — about their negotiations with Iran over its alleged nuclear program, he fell asleep — or at least pretended to. At one point, when the New York Times asked him about the Bush administration's actual policy toward North Korea, he pulled down a book titled The End of North Korea and said, "That is our policy."
And, of course, there was Iraq. Bolton had been calling for the overthrow of Saddam at least as far back as 1998, when he claimed that "removing him from power is the only alternative" and signed a letter urging Clinton to do so. When the Bush administration feared chemical weapons inspections would undercut the administration's case for war, Bolton marched into the office of the head of the inspection agency and told him he had twenty-four hours to resign, then circulated a defamatory document about the man (who refused but was ousted weeks later). Once the administration launched the war, Bolton expressed his hope that "a number of regimes will draw the appropriate lesson from Iraq, that the pursuit of weapons of mass destruction is not in their national interest."
Just as he had in the Reagan administration, Bolton used his position to mute any information that ran counter to his preferred course of action — war — and to bully staff, according to a flurry of accusations that came out when Bush nominated Bolton to serve as UN ambassador in 2005.
Two officials accused him of removing them from posts when they opposed his mangling of the facts, and a third popped up later, including one CIA official who pointed out that Bolton's claim that Cuba had a biological weapons program wasn't based on evidence. Bolton repeated this pattern with Syria and North Korea.
One staffer charged that Bolton "abuses his authority with little people" while another complained that Bolton's "personal attacks, harassment and impugning of my integrity" had impacted his work and health. Bolton allegedly set up meetings with foreign officials without bothering to notify the State Department and held back a memo that alleged Israel had violated US law in its assassination of a Hamas activist. Rounding out this near-comical list of villainous acts were Bolton's attempts to get details about other US officials' communications collected by the NSA.
Even before these revelations, Bolton was a controversial choice for the post. After all, this was the guy who said that "if the UN secretary building in New York lost ten stories, it wouldn't make a bit of difference." He proposed reforming the UN with "one permanent member [of the UN Security Council] because that's the real reflection of the distribution of power in the world." But it took this flood of accusations to sink his nomination.
Which is of course why Bush appointed him anyway, without confirmation, while the Senate was on recess. Bolton's time at the UN turned out to be less apocalyptic than imagined, though he still managed to kill a proposed reform of the UN's Human Rights Commission by insisting all five permanent Security Council members get automatic seats, despite their checkered records on the issue.
Partly because of the Democratic victory in the 2006 midterm elections, which all but ensured he wouldn't be confirmed when his recess appointment was up, and partly because of his disappointment with the Bush administration, which he felt wasn't waging enough wars, Bolton resigned in December 2006. "I didn't spend thirty-one days in Florida to end up where we are now," he complained, referring to Bush's deal with North Korea and his pursuit of a Middle East peace deal.
"Not only was [the administration] moving in the wrong direction, it was going to continue in the wrong direction no matter what I did," he later explained. "I just felt that on policy terms I could do more outside the government than within."
Bolton has spent the subsequent eleven years as a caricature of himself, using every public statement to call for war with Iran and North Korea. As far back as 2007 he was warning that "the choice is between the use of force and Iran with nuclear weapons." Two years later, he all but told Israel to attack Iran, including, in an alarming escalation from his already unhinged rhetoric, suggesting they use nuclear weapons. Now we know that he had urged Israel's defense chief to attack Iran back when he was part of the Bush administration.
Bolton has worried that the chaos that engulfed Iraq post-Saddam has led people to believe that "toppling other rogue regimes, such as those in Iran or North Korea, would also be a mistake." He maintains that "the overthrow of Saddam remains unquestionably the right decision" and has said that he "wish[ed] we had been working on regime change over the last four years."
Unsurprisingly, he also hates the Iran deal, and drew up a "memo" for Trump last August on how to get out of it. James Mattis will now be the only high-ranking official in Trump's orbit to support the Iran deal, spelling its almost certain doom.
Bolton got Iraq, but he never completed his coveted Axis-of-Evil trifecta, which is literally all he ever seems to talk about. His new appointment will afford him perhaps the best chance he's ever had to finally claim those scalps.
The Resistance Prevails
While the rest of us dread what's to come, #Resistance liberals do have one reason to be jubilant about Bolton's appointment. After spending nearly two years crowing about Trump's supposed passivity toward Putin and Russia, they'll find in Bolton an anti-Russian hawk who will help bring the two countries closer to open conflict.
Bolton incessantly criticized Obama's attempts to "reset" relations with Russia, which he mocked as "bending the knee to Moscow," characterizing attempts to cooperate in arms control and nuclear proliferation as "concessions." He charged that the 2009 arms control treaty with Russia was "almost entirely to Moscow's advantage" and blamed Obama's insufficiently strong condemnation of Putin's human rights abuses for "emboldening" the autocrat to "crack down." "It's a measure of Putin's confidence that he can basically act without fear of retaliation from the United States," he said in 2013.
Bolton claims Putin annexed Crimea because Obama said nothing about Russia's involvement in Georgia in 2008 and believes that Russia's perception of American weakness led the Kremlin to "rebuild their imperial ambitions." "The biggest threats in the world today are China and Russia," he explained in 2014.
Obama's desire to strengthen US-Russia relations, Bolton has said, meant that "our country's response to Putin was weak." In February, he wrote that since Mueller's indictment fell short of charging actual collusion, Trump can now "pivot to the real task ahead, which is dealing strategically and comprehensively with Russia's global efforts to enhance its influence."
For Bolton, this means a "retaliatory cyber campaign against Russia" that should be "decidedly disproportionate," to properly scare Putin away from doing something similar in the future; it means an "analogous response" in the Middle East to counter Russia's meddling; and it means more provocative military action by NATO. "Let Putin instead hear the rumble of artillery and NATO tank tracks conducting more joint field exercises with Ukraine's military," writes Bolton.
To all of our misfortune, the #Resistance is about to be reminded of the need to be careful of what one wishes for.
Ruthless Idealism
There is no daylight between the ethos of a thug with a lead pipe shaking down a pedestrian for money and John Bolton, except that one has a J.D. from Yale.
Bolton is particularly dangerous because he combines devotion to the ruthless exercise of power for American interests with a glassy-eyed faith in the durability of that same power. Anyone even remotely in touch with reality will have viewed the past two decades as a profound lesson in the limits of American military might — a fact that, ironically, helped Trump come to power. Not Bolton. Despite the ever worsening failure of the war he so desperately wished for, he has been heedlessly slavering for ever more destruction, still entranced by schoolboy myths about American power that the Right long ago turned into a near-evangelical worldview
Unless Trump grows tired of Bolton's mustache in record time, the Korean peninsula or the Middle East is very likely headed for war. Yet despite what Bolton thinks — and despite the Democrats' abdication of this responsibility under Obama — a president cannot declare war without congressional authorization. The question is whether Congress will finally reassert this role under Trump or simply line up behind him.
The good news is that Democrats are poised to make significant gains in this year's midterms, including possibly retaking the House. The bad news is that if they do, they will do so with one of the most conservative and militaristic batch of new Democrats in modern memory.
Whatever happens, Bolton's dismaying rise to power couldn't have happened without the Reagan and Bush presidencies that liberals and centrists are now so eager to rehabilitate. Nor could it have happened without the many news outlets that have provided him a platform and legitimized him as a serious foreign policy thinker, instead of the deluded fanatic that he is. Perhaps this will spur some soul-searching, but let's take things one day at a time.
Branko Marcetic is a Jacobin staff writer and the author of Yesterday's Man: The Case Against Joe Biden . He lives in Toronto, Canada.
"John Bolton is the kind of man with whom I would want to stand at Armageddon." So said Bolton's mentor, former senator and forever-segregationist Jesse Helms, describing the man he took under his wing during the Reagan years and helped set on the path to political power. Helms, who died in 2008, will never get […]

Message to Michael: Just Say, Well, No.
In what I can only describe as a sentimental-veering-toward-weepy riff on the ongoing saga of "Silicon Valley Bubble: The Sequel," TechCrunch blogger Michael Arrington waxes on about the need for a downturn to stop the madness.
Having actually been around in the first bubble, covering the sector for The Wall Street Journal as its Internet beat reporter, I can empathize with the relentless pitching and aggressive self-aggrandizing that start-ups and their minions engaged in (although no bawling CEOs ever called me!).
Back then, they wanted the press (and, presumably, the stamp of approval from The Journal on that passport to Richville) to either get funding from venture capitalists or to IPO their typically half-baked company, much to the detriment of the investing public.
Here's my simple cure for the seemingly beleaguered blogger (who has, in fact, made his name writing about this new crop of wannabes, some of whom are worthy and some of whom are not): Flowers and wine and comely PR come-ons are pretty easy to resist, and saying no is actually an option.
Let's practice: No. Nope. Sorry. Uh-uh. Zip. Zero. Nada. I'm sorry, what's UGC? Wait, I have a call on the other line.
All kidding aside, having just gotten back into covering the sector, I find the landscape quantum levels higher than the mostly ridiculous roundelays of world-shaking claims by subpar start-ups that took place in the last bubble.
At that time, I recall one start-up exec tell me with a straight face that his company was "pre-revenue," while another toddler entrepreneur bragged that he was considering making a run at The Wall Street Journal and that he might keep me on. Most of those kinds of fools and braggarts were flushed right out of the system, the result of speculation and excess that only unlimited funding and a lack of business plan can create.
Aside from financial ruin, the biggest damage these companies did was in obscuring the fact that the Web was still a profoundly transformative medium and that the true disruption was to come not via Wall Street machinations, but from rapidly shifting how information and content were created (and by whom) and distributed (and by whom).
Today, the new companies, for the most part, are actually useful and much more disciplined and with much less lofty goals. While most are built to flip, they offer features that improve the experience on the Web for consumers and businesses and are filling in areas that need improvement. In fact, while there are some mildly laughable ideas, it is hard to find any on the level of the party that was 1999.
How I long for a Boo.com, Webvan.com or Kozmo.com to mock, but those gems are exceedingly rare in the new environment. And there simply is no Pets.com to kick around anymore.
It's enough to make a reporter–oops, newbie blogger–weep.

The people of fantasy and sf are upset. The BBC but also the world in general, it seems, lack proper respect for the genres of fantastic literature. Or at least the reading world, or the world that has opinions about books. We, who enjoy fantasy and sf and other so called "popular fiction" (or "genre fiction"), apparently feel "put upon". But why?
A fervent defence of "genre fiction" was posted on the blog of SF-bokhandeln a few days back. It's in Swedish, but the gist of their argument is in fact an attack against "widespread and ingrained" delusions about the quality of the genres and the consequent depreciation of their readers. The writers, Karin Waller and Nene Ormes, took as their point of departure steampunk writer Stephen Hunt's angry reaction to how the BBC had excluded sf and fantasy from their World Book Night programme. Sparks of indignation can be seen to fly from both texts, although Waller and Ormes add a liberal measure of self-irony, admitting that they are tilting at windmills. The comments to both texts bear witness to similar indignation being spread among the respective readerships (but on the whole, the Swedish commenters seem to take themselves and the whole issue less seriously).
The answer to that question is: "With vaguely positive curiosity, mostly." So far, only one of my colleagues has referred to my area of research as "fantasy crap". This is far less than I expected when I entered the field some ten or fifteen years back. I might encounter puzzled looks when I say "fantasy" but never outright hostility. I have so far had no problem getting funding. In fact, there seems to be quite a lot of fantasy to be found in Swedish media. Dagens Nyheters several pages about the genre on the 24th of April this year is just the latest example. Rather than attacking the genre, it was written with enthusiasm. And unlike when I went to school, genre fiction is widely accepted by [Swedish] teachers (and many of them read specfic themselves).
So why are we so upset? I can understand scholars who are upset when their research topics are deemed unworthy of consideration by default, and I know that that happens. It shouldn't and it's a fight worth fighting. At the same time, I must point out that I have encountered far more interest in my research than many of my colleagues (who worked on more "proper" topics). Fantasy scholarship certainly seems to capture the imagination of far more people than do many other kinds of literary scholarship.
But we, the readers, what annoys us? What makes us so irritated when our favourite genre is not included in a TV programme that we write things such as "The way to [prevent literature from becoming a pleasure for a cultural elite only] is to find quality books that are also interesting to actual people. Not to PhDs of literature, not to critics, but to the average, bright, layman" (from a comment to Hunt's blog post). I have to admit that this disappointed me. Not only am I, as a PhD of literature and a critic apparently not meant to enjoy fantasy – I am somehow set in a different category from the large majority of my friends (OK, there's nothing average about them except – possibly – for their height, but still …). Many of us enjoy basically the same stuff as other people – and this is particularly true for the sf readership, who in my opinion is the most intelligent and discerning readership there is. We might enjoy it more, but that is surely not the point?
We don't want to be referred to as less discerning readers, of course. So, very maturely, we refer to the others as less discerning, by calling them "muggles", or citing any number of authors who have explained how wrong non-specfic readers are. We try to defend our genres by explaining their many qualities (completely ignoring that 90 percent of sf and fantasy and horror is crud). Personally, I often ask myself, and others, what that fiction which is not "popular fiction" should be called: unpopular? But aren't we the tiniest bit touchy? After all, I don't care when someone questions my taste in music, or food, or clothes. Taste is individual. I even accept that people criticise my choice of OS. But seriously, we can't defend entire genres, quite simply because much of it is crud. What we can do is defend individual authors and books, for what they are and what qualities they have. That shouldn't be too hard, since there are loads of really good genre writers out there. We should also recall that reading fantastic fiction is difficult and requires training – the more you have read, the more you appreciate it.
Because the bottom line is this: our beloved genres don't need saving – in fact, they're doing fine. Instead, many readers seem more worried about saving their own pride . "Respect my choice of reading matter; don't sneer at it or extol the virtues of an arbitrary canon!" the battle cries echo. But I cannot help feeling that the cries ring out too loudly. Do we have to pick a fight because someone disagrees about taste? They have no power to keep us from our books, nor any power to keep fantastic fiction away from film scripts or the New York Times best-seller lists. Let's rise above them. Rather than feel put upon, let's ask anyone who criticises our taste in literature or our taste in clothes to discuss the merits of individual works or garments. Let's explain what's so brilliant about Gaiman or Straub or Ryman.
As long as their silly, preconceived ideas don't stop us from anything important – like getting good grades, or funding, or entry into degree programmes, in which case, let them feel the heat of our resentment and let's fight the fight.
That's an interesting post. I recently listened to an interview with China Miéville, who said something like "We are right when saying these things [that sf/f is not crud by default], of course, but we _have_ been saying them again and again for forty years now". He also added, however, that every now and then someone says something so rude that he just has to stand up against it. Perhaps we should all try to keep in mind that there is always the risk, when fighting for a cause, that you start loving the fight more than you love the cause (to parafrase Le guin).
2) a publisher doesn't recognize fantasy when seeing it.
Some of the best books I've ever read are fantasy. And some of the worst, too.
As for the crème caramel – I volunteer as an impartial judge!

Fishing magnet, compact and lightweight, inlaid with a super-strong force of the latest generation of 'Magnetic King' called super permanent magnet, which can be strongly attracted by iron, steel, nickel and other ferromagnetic material.
-Whether fishing magnet can hold 0lb,few pounds,many pounds or even 400pounds,your steel is decisive!!
Thin steel means saturation of flux in the magnetic circuit. Excess magnetic flux is wasted in the air and can't be utilized.
Thick painting will give rise to a great leakage of flux,only a small portion of flux from fishing magnet can be utilized to provide the attractive force.The thicker the painting, the worse the magnetic force!
-How to achieve the advertising attractive force?

An ambitious young intern at a prestigious Miami law firm finds his dreams of passing the bar and becoming a real lawyer thrown into question when he hastily agrees to help one of the firm's partners move -- only to discover that the attorney's new home is in Los Angeles. Rick Robinson (Ben Gourley) has what it takes to become a great lawyer, the only trouble is that he's a bit of a pushover. Though today he spends most of his time copying documents and dreaming of courtroom debate, in four short days he will take the bar and begin his professional career. Upon stepping into the office elevator and noticing one of the firm's partners, Maxwell McAllister (Rutger Hauer), the starstruck Rick jumps at the chance to help the counselor move. His patience is put to the ultimate test, however, when he arrives at the lawyer's house to find a mountain of boxes and a note demanding that he hire a moving truck and drive the load to Los Angeles. As if that weren't bad enough, the lawyer's pet pig and spoiled, college-dropout daughter, Michele (Mila Kunis), will be joining him on the drive. Not only does the tempestuous Southern belle seem intent on sabotaging Rick at every turn, but by the time he arrives in L.A. he will have to jump on a plane and race home in order to take the bar exam on time. Strong bonds have a funny way of forming in tense situations, though, and before Rick and Michele know it, they can't stand the idea of being apart. Moving McAllister also co-stars Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite).
Black possesses an impressive visual instinct, enhanced by Doug Chamberlain's cinematography, which distinguishes the film from other modestly budgeted indies.
Lacking so much as one interesting creative flourish, Moving McAllister may inspire your inner-development exec to scream out script notes in the hope that somehow, maybe, the characters will hear you and give them a try.
Though Moving McAllister's heart and soul are in the right place, it's a terrible excuse for a movie.
There's so little to it that it's kind of a miracle anything actually stuck onto the film emulsion. Yet unfold along it does for 93 unimaginative minutes.
Bad really is too delicate a word to describe the film.
If you don't know where this movie is going within the first 10 minutes, I have a moving van to sell you, cheap.
It's about time to say that Heder's 15 minutes of fame have run out. He's simply regurgitating the same one-note, doofus shtick he's been milking since Napoleon Dynamite, and it's gotten tiresome.
It's called Moving McAllister, but a better title would be Ripping Off Reiner.
Can't figure out why people didn't like this movie. I thought it was funny. If you go in not taking it too seriously then you are bound to enjoy the quirky characters and the crazy antics. I say it's funny.
Ben Gourly, Mila Kunis, Jon Heder, Rutger Hauer, Hubbel Palmer Rick Robinson is a ladder-climbing law intern from Miami with four days until the Bar Exam. Desperate to score points with his boss (McAllister), he commits to a favor he can't afford. He ends up in a rundown truck headed to L.A. with his boss's possessions, his Hollywood-bound niece, and her pet pig. Amidst hitch-hikers, breakdowns, and assorted local yokels, Rick finds love, life and maybe himself in this trans-American road trip from hell. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Great comedy. Laughed a lot through this film. It's silly, quirky, a little weird, and very entertaining. Jon Heder was hillarious in this movie. Just a fun roadtrip movie to watch, not to be taken seriously. About a guy just finding himself with the help from a couple of free spirited people. This movie got a lot of bad reviews, but I have to disagree. I found it refreshing and very funny. Maybe not most peoples taste, but I like these kinds of comedies. There's no doubt that this movie will make you laugh.
Eccentric characters! Wacky situations! Nearly no laughs!

It is hard to imagine now that Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal came under criticism from the fans when after failing to sign the big name players he was after, he turned his attention to Southampton forward Sadio Mane.
At the time fans saw it as a desperation move, but looking now you can see what the 64-year-old Dutchman saw in the Senegalese international, which could lead to another approach from the Red Devils in January.
Southampton manager Ronald Koeman admitted the other day that he is expecting bids to arrive sooner than later, and especially so following the way he played in the 3-1 win over Chelsea that you can see in the video below.
"Maybe one day we will lose Mane but then we have to be prepared," Koeman told the Daily Echo.

Time variations of interstellar water masers in HII regions
White, G. J. and Macdonald, G.H. (1979). Time variations of interstellar water masers in HII regions. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 188 pp. 745–764.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/188.4.745
URL: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1979MNRAS.188..745W
Fourteen water maser sources associated with HII regions have been monitored over the period September 1974-May 1977. Time variations have been observed with a range of time-scales from days to years. A statistical analysis of the short- and long-term variations is performed and related variability in features of similar velocity is examined. The time variations must be due to changes in the pump input, geometry or other physical properties of the maser regions but at present no adequate theory exists to describe the complex behavior observed.
