Elizabeth Rubin: Our Strange Dance With Pakistan

Written By 2coder on Saturday, May 7, 2011 | 7:04 AM

New York Review of Books:

Osama bin Laden's death in a mansion in exclusive club house territory of retired Pakistani officers has exposed the terrible paradox at the heart of our war in Afghanistan--Pakistan's hypocrisy and our acquiescence. Bin Laden's Pakistani hosts, two rich businessmen called Arshad and Tariq Khan who owned the house and were killed with him, hail from Charsadda, 15 miles north of Peshawar. Their uncle was a retired Brigadier. (Arshad was apparently the courier, Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti, who led intelligence officials to the compound.) This is not a lawless land. This is highly controlled territory.

Defibrillators in Dance Studios and Bowling Alleys Could Save ...

Creatas/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) -- Have you ever checked to see whether your local bowling alley or dance studio has an automatic external defibrillator? Its presence if someone suffers sudden cardiac arrest could mean the difference between life and death, according to research presented Thursday at the Heart Rhythm Society's annual meeting.

In cases of cardiac arrest, an automatic external defibrillator (AED) is a potentially lifesaving device that can analyze the heart's electrical activity and, if appropriate, shock it back to a normal rhythm. The device has pads that are placed on a person's chest. A voice built into the machine can give rescuers step-by-step instructions.

While AEDs are everywhere from health clubs to offices, other places where people engage in physical activity are probably overlooked, said Dr. Richard Page, chair of the department of medicine at University of Wisconsin and co-author of the study.

"I think we need to consider exercise to be happening at a lot of different places," said Page. "The need for an AED should be recognized at not just traditional exercise facilities."

The study, which looked at data from 960 older adult patients in Seattle who had sudden cardiac arrest, found that some of the most common places where patients experienced sudden cardiac arrest included dancing studios and bowling alleys.

Page said that bowlers in general might not be as physically active, which could lead to a higher risk of sudden cardiac arrest. Dancing, he said, requires strenuous aerobic exercise, which can also increase the risk.

[MP3] new Gang Gang Dance: “Romance Layers”

GangGangDance [MP3] new Gang Gang Dance: Romance Layers

Maybe it was the cup of coffee I just drank to get over the mid-afternoon hump, but I’ve been grooving to this new Gang Gang Dance record ever since the caffeine made its way to my cerebral cortex. Coupled with the below post on EMA, there are some ridiculous releases dropping next week and Eye Contact is right atop my list. I’ve listened to Gang Gang Dance before but they’re not my favorite brand, I would snag them off the shelf and read the back of the box but always end up putting it right back where I found it. Now they’re sitting in the child seat of my shopping cart, safely snuggled in between the bumpin’ bread and eccentric eggs. Cart party!

This is a slow jam I can equally enjoy on a rooftop looking at the sun fade into the horizon or on a foggy dance-floor with a few neon lights and a disco ball above head. It’s got the charm of a Kisses jam and the avant-garde funk of Hot Chip track, slowly snaking through your inner ear canal causing a few “Oh yeah, that’s the spot” murmurs. I’ve got a feeling Eye Contact (out via 4AD) might be the summer LP for me, we’ll see how it holds up in the sunshine.

At last year's Met Gala, P. Diddy got Anna Wintour to dance "a little bit," he later confirmed, after photographic proof of the boogying had emerged. Apparently, Jay-Z and Beyoncé made unsuccessful attempts to get her to dance with them at this year's after-party. But of course she didn't want to dance with Beyoncé! Remember how Gaga looked when she had to do that? [NYDN]
