1 | ' A surprised Lloyd replied, 'If you had so much as winked at us ...'.After retiring from office Eisenhower came to see the Suez Crisis as perhaps his biggest foreign policy mistake.During a visit by the UK Foreign Secretary, Selwyn Lloyd, at the Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, Dulles asked, 'Selwyn, why did you stop.Eisenhower was intensely worried supporting his allies might harm his chances of winning re-election – had the invasion been launched on 7 November, his reaction might have been more muted, in which case the whole Canal could have been taken by the British and French troops.In later years a revisionist view held that the real mistake during the Crisis was made not by Eden but by Eisenhower, since in failing to support his allies he gave the impression that the West was divided and weak, which the Soviets were quick to exploit.Not only did he feel that the United States weakened two crucial European Cold War allies, but he created in Nasser a man capable of dominating the Arab world.Revisionists further argued that by failing to show enough leadership in finding a diplomatic solution to the Crisis, Eisenhower and the United Nations had made the Anglo-French military response inevitable.The American Secretary of State John Foster Dulles was diagnosed with colon cancer and underwent surgery during the week of the Suez war.The record of a bedside visit by President Eisenhower five days earlier shows his Secretary of State made an almost identical remark.Why didn't you go through with it and get Nasser down | null |

1 | This is in contrast to typical breath-based mindfulness meditation instructions, which cover only three of the Buddha's sixteen instructions (mindfulness of breath and thoughts), and advise practitioners against attempting to consciously control the breath (in direct contradiction to the method the Buddha taught).This method, as described in the sutta and in more detail in books such as Thanissaro Bhikku's With Each and Every Breath, emphasizes awareness of the entire body during in and out breaths while actively cultivating calm, rapture, and pleasure through engagement with the processes of mental and bodily fabrication ().While the Forest tradition is often claimed to have an anti-textual stance, the meditation methodology taught in the tradition is in fact one of the most faithful implementations of the Buddha's own meditation instructions in existence, as originally laid out in the Anapanasati Sutta | Nevertheless, the Forest tradition is often cited as having an anti-textual stance, as Forest teachers in the lineage prefer edification through ad-hoc application of Buddhist practices rather than through methodology and comprehensive memorization, and likewise state that the true value of Buddhist teachings is in their ability to be applied to reduce or eradicate defilement from the mind |

1 | According to 2010 data from the.United Nations Development Programme, an estimated 29.8% of Indians live below the country's national poverty line | A realistic definition and comparison of poverty must consider these differences in costs of living, or must be on purchasing power parity basis.According to 2010 data from the United Nations Development Programme, an estimated 29.8% of Indians live below the country's national poverty line.By World Bank's 2014 PPP definition, India's poverty rate is significantly different - lower - than previously believed.Each state in India has its own poverty threshold to determine how many people are below its poverty line and to reflect regional economic conditions.Further, this methodology sets different poverty lines for rural and urban areas.India's current official poverty rates are based on its Planning Commission’s data derived from so-called Tendulkar methodology.Inside India, both income-based poverty definition and consumption-based poverty statistics are in use.It defines poverty not in terms of annual income, but in terms of consumption or spending per individual over a certain period.On this basis, currency fluctuations and nominal numbers become less important, the definition is based on the local costs of goods and services that people can purchase.Outside India, the World Bank and institutions of the United Nations use a broader definition to compare poverty among nations, including India, based on purchasing power parity (PPP) as well as nominal basis.Since 2007, India set its official threshold at a day in rural areas and about per day in urban areas.The World Bank’s international poverty line definition is based on purchasing power parity basis, at $1.25 per day.There are several definitions of poverty, and scholars disagree as to which definition is appropriate for India.These differences in definition yield a complex and conflicting picture about poverty in India, both internally and when compared to other developing countries of the world.This definition is inspired by the reality that the price of same goods, and services such as a haircut, are quite different in local currencies around the world.While these numbers are lower than the World Bank's $1.25 per day income-based definition, the definition is similar to China's US$ 0.65 per day official poverty line in 2008 |
