Beyond the shrill polemic Oct 30, 2007
One of my favourite emails from a reader told me, "I wish I was as certain of anything as you are of everything." The latter is far from the case, but it served as a salutary reminder that the certainty columnists are paid to produce can sometimes cripple public debate, alienating readers and reducing complexity to wittily phrased polemic. There's been evidence of that in the debate about abortion law reform. (Guardian Unlimited)
Raina: Deal or Democracy? Oct 28, 2007
What is salutary, however, is that both also believe there are systemic considerations that must not be overlooked. Conceding for the moment that the Indian and American states are constitutional democracies (there will of course be a spate of argument as to the democratic content of those constitutions, and about the equity with which that content operates among the polity), it must be noted that the idea of democracy obtains variably in the two democracies, owing largely to the variable...

'The crime rate will dropin every state of the union' Oct 1, 2007
"The extension of that fence for 854 miles across the smuggling corridors of Arizona, New Mexico, Texas and California will be a priority, and that, incidentally, will be one of my first initiatives as president. That, I think, will have a salutary effect on illegal immigration problem, as well as the crime problem in this country," he said. "When we built that border fence the crime rate in the city of San Diego dropped by 50 percent. I think the crime rate will drop in every state of the union... (WorldNetDaily)

Sick 'em, boys Sep 29, 2007
Sydney Morning Herald journalist Cynthia Banham's recent visit to her desk in the newspaper's Canberra bureau was a salutary reminder of the length of time it is taking her to recover from injuries she suffered last March in a Garuda Airlines plane crash at Yogyakarta Airport. Last weekend Mark Forbes, Indonesia correspondent for The Age and its sister paper the SMH, won an award for his professional and compassionate coverage of the Garuda crash, an event in which he was observer and...

Polly Toynbee: Where, Gordon, is the edge? Sep 25, 2007
This was more a steam-cleaning of New Labour policies, renewing what worked, building on went before - with many salutary reminders of how much good there is to be built on. His genuine passion to see every child gets a fair chance in life wasn't the usual perfunctory couple of paragraphs, now obligatory for Tories too, but his own solid core underpinning everything else he said.

When profit enters the front door; risk enters by the back Aug 7, 2007
Reminders are often salutary. The one administered to investors in late July and early August certainly rivetted attention and drove home the old messages that what goes up must come down, that diversity pays better than tunnel vision and that periodic profit taking is a good habit to cultivate. (Business Report, South Africa)
* Rough sailing ahead for investors Jul 30, 2007
The correction that set in last week, he said, was "salutary," given that world economic prospects remain positive. The IMF has just raised its global growth forecast, thanks largely to the performance of emerging market countries such as China. (Taipei Times, Taiwan -- World)
Pay Democrats the Minimum Wage Now Jul 25, 2007
There is one place, however, where the minimum wage could have a salutary effect: among the Democratic presidential candidates who are paid by taxpayers right now.

Interleukin-1–Receptor Antagonist in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Jul 19, 2007
To the Editor: Larsen et al. (April 12 issue)1 describe salutary changes in many markers of inflammation in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with anakinra, an interleukin-1 receptor antagonist. They report a significant difference in the glycated hemoglobin level at 13 weeks in the anakinra group as compared with the placebo group, but the mean end-point values in the two groups were in fact identical.

'People thought we were mad' Jul 12, 2007
"After all, what could be more suicidal than Racine in the West End? In the event, the two French classics, like the Hare, were fantastically successful. Only Vassa never found an audience, and so we ended up with a small deficit. It was a salutary lesson in that it taught me it's much easier to lose money than to make it. But, with the Haymarket season, the hope is that we can break even if we play to 80% capacity. And the great thing is that I don't have to raise the money. I have power... (Guardian Unlimited)
Sicko's Bitter Pill Jun 28, 2007
Nearly 30 years later, as the sorry fate of Hillary Clintons universal health care proposals bear out, the average American still hears socialized medicine as socialist medicine, a holdover from 1950s Red-scaremongering thats entertainingly lampooned in Michael Moores flawed, vital and entirely salutary Sicko. As with all Moores movies, Sicko arrives in theaters laden with prior ballast, some of it engineered by the wide-eyed, who-me director himself. (LA Weekly)
Ghanaian Graduate Education Must Be Made Relevant Jun 24, 2007
Indeed, Professor E. A. Boateng may have departed for the other side of earthly existence and reality, but it was not before leaving in his dour wake, a new breed of equally vindictive professors and lecturers who would rather gloat in the fact of brazen intellectual sadism than the salutary production of psychologically empowered graduates poised to shepherding Ghana into twenty-first century socioeconomic and cultural development.

The machinations around this issue represent the first real foray into the "new politics" of minority government, both for the Executive and for the opposition, and it has resulted in a salutary lesson for both. Although Mr Salmond has escaped defeat this time, he knows he faces a more damaging defeat on the trams and the rail link, when he eventually does bring his plans before parliament. (Scotsman)
Fighting Cancer With Salmonella May 23, 2007
Alternatively, they could also deliver immune-stimulating substances that would mark the tumor for the body's own immune-defense mechanisms and induce a salutary immune response. "For medical purposes, of course," notes Dr. Loessner, "we would not use dangerous pathogens, but rather mutant strains that are harmless to humans.". (Science Daily)

Fading cellophane-wrapped flowers tied to lampposts are a drive-slower salutary reminder the roads killed more than 1600 people in Australia a year.

"I would see that kind of low order price as being part of a cap and trade framework.'' Mr Hooke also questioned the value of long-term targets, saying they were either inaccurate, out of touch with what was achievable, or prone to manipulation.

Mr Hooke said the corruption of the European trading market - where too many permits were given out, causing the price to... (The Australian)
After Abbott made its announcement, an editorial in the Wall Street Journal, known for its business-friendly stances, said that "In the long run, Abbott's withdrawal may have a salutary impact if it demonstrates to Thai officials and other governments that they will pay a price for stealing intellectual property". But let's face it, the real price here will be paid not by the officials or the government but by the Thai citizens who badly need these drugs. (Nature News Service)
Judge Kessler wrote: "To rule otherwise would not only frustrate the salutary anti-fraud principles embodied in RICO, but would also allow the Defendants to spread fraudulent and misleading health messages and descriptors about their products throughout the world, even though they are prohibited from doing so in the United States. The Court sees no justification, either legal or ethical, for concluding that Congress intended to allow Defendants to continue to tell the rest of the world that 'low... (PR Newswire)
Electric utility deregulation and the war in Iraq have much in common: both are irreversible mistakes with no salutary options in sight -- only less bad ones. In response to the current debate in my home state of Connecticut, where a five-year experiment in industry restructuring has not gone well, I have proposed one less bad approach to get some of the toothpaste back into the tube. (Energy Pulse, CO)
In addition, it would also introduce the welcome and salutary stimulus of competition for value and benefit into military medicine. When the institutions in which very capable military support staff deliver care become directly accountable to patients, conditions will improve, quality will go up, and service will get better -- or the patients will go elsewhere.

" Who better, indeed, than the country whose State Department, with the blatantly anti-Semitic Breckenridge Long in charge of immigrant visas, continued to turn away Jewish refugees long after the truth about the Nazi solution to the "Jewish problem" was documented in intelligence reports.

Born in Frankfurt, she confided to her... (Newsday -- Opinion)
For Prodi's government, the Senate scare may actually be a salutary lesson. The 12-point plan imposed on his coalition includes support for D'Alema's foreign policy, infrastructure projects disliked by the Greens, and pension reforms opposed by the communists. (Sunday Herald)
"All four generations, from Sofka's parents onwards," she writes, "lacked a conventional family environment, and in its way, it provided us all with a salutary training." She loyally gives grandmamma the benefit of the doubt.

The plan ended when someone from her neighborhood... (The Ledger)
The salutary effects of breast milk on cognitive development could help those who were breast fed attain higher levels of education and better jobs, leading to upward social mobility, the authors suggested online in the Archives of Disease in Childhood. The authors found men and women who had been part of the Boyd Orr Survey of Diet and Health in Pre-War Britain, which ran from 1937 to 1939. (MedPage Today)
It provides salutary warnings. This canary may cheep a little too loudly and its warnings become increasingly shrill. (Newsday -- Opinion)
The bias proves salutary. It forestalls the sentimental self-congratulation with which we may dote on a victim of misunderstanding whose actual company we couldn t have stood for an hour, let alone nine weeks. (New Yorker)
The collapse of the Government s plans to build a hospital complex at Paddington in West London is a salutary tale of institutional incompetence. Naivety and blind optimism do not sit well with the cut-throat business of construction. (TimesOnline)
But the medical information gleaned from the tests could have other, less salutary uses. Legislation in both houses of Congress would prohibit insurers from denying coverage or raising rates based on test results and would forbid employers from using the results to make hiring, firing and other personnel decisions.

But Webb's performance was a salutary sign that Democrats just might be getting over the battered party syndrome that has left so many of them terrified of saying exactly what's on their mind. Then again, maybe Webb was just speaking for himself. (San Francisco Chronicle -- Opinion)
Frederick Countys appeal Wednesday in front of the Board of Public Works for more state money for school construction concluded with some salutary comments on Gardner by state Treasurer Nancy Kopp. Gardner served with Kopp on a state task force investigating school needs. (Frederick News-Post)

Among French sociologists, he alone disputed the notion that the 1968 uprisings that destabilized France had given a salutary bounce to the march of history (toward communism).

That is the choice offered by George W. Bush and John Edwards, the North Carolina Democrat whose left-of-center presidential candidacy will have the salutary effect of challenging Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton to respond with their own specifics. Edwards' ideas on the budget have the additional virtue of reminding us that the argument over arriving at a balanced budget by 2012 is largely phony. (Buffalo News -- Opinion)
So it's more than salutary, at this time, to hear once again, with such clarity and feeling, Miller's great challenge to that narrow definition of where duty lies, a challenge that is perhaps even more significant now, after another 60 years of booming private affluence in the West, than it was in 1947. Meanwhile, in Inverness, the Highland 2007 Festival opened last Friday night with a riot of street theatre which succeeded in demonstrating - among other things - that despite the cancellation of...

This is an undeniable benefit, beyond the salutary giggle, of consuming this kind of news.

(Mail Tribune, OR)
"Ultimately we decided to sit this one out," Clement told the society, adding that the reaction to the Court decision has been salutary. Instead of constitutionalizing the issue, the Court gave states room to legislate, and more than 30 states have since passed bills or ballot initiatives that limit eminent domain powers. (Law.com)
Just before Christmas, the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics (ABARE) issued a report about the status of the Australian grain crop which offered a salutary warning to a smug government and a gee-up for a resurgent Labor under new management. A sustained period of El Nino-influenced weather usually brings drought to eastern Australia. (Sydney Morning Herald -- Opinion)
Economic theory, at least beyond that of the introductory-level textbook, also suggests salutary consequences of wage-floor increases. For one thing, better-paid workers may indeed be more productive. (Orlando Sentinel -- Opinion)
Gill Phillips, media lawyer with Times Newspapers, said that this would have a salutary effect. In the light of recent rulings that are all very much in favour of recognising people s privacy rights, I think there s no doubt that courts would be sympathetic to doing something here. (TimesOnline)
