Friday Forum: What Adaptation Would Worry You the Most?
Wish, hope, and sacrifice goats as I might, the On The Road movie inches closer to release. Yesterday, the first official poster was released. Here it is:
I don't know if the movie is going to be bad. It probably won't be. It also probably won't be good. It will probably be, as are most movie adaptations of classic literary fiction, just kind of OK. And this is in a way sadder and more disappointing than if something turns out to be an interesting failure.
Which leads me to this week's question: If you could forever ensure that one book would never, ever be made into a movie, what would it be? And why?
Happy weekend, all!

1) and 2) Lana Del Rey, Honeymoon (Interscope) and Jon Caramanica, "Lana Del Rey: She'd Be Sad, if She Cared (Which She Doesn't)," New York Times (September 17). When Lana Del Rey appeared on Saturday Night Live in 2012 to sing "Video Games," in effect her national debut, she really did look like a debutante: long gown which didn't exactly fit, an air of nerves. It struck me as the exact opposite of the normal SNL musical spot: uncertain, unfinished, and most of all not obvious—the most radical music on the show in ages. It brought forth a storm of derision, so unrelenting that not long after the show parodied its own former guest in the person of Kristen Wiig in a floppy long-hair wig, embarrassing prom dress, and wan face.
You might realize, listening to Lana Del Rey's new, most fully realized album, comparable in its way to Amy Winehouse's Back to Black, that her songs slip when even a hint of the specific breaks the spell. In "Art Deco," the words "You're so art deco" take you away from the pure, liquid syllables of the opening lines, away from the way the song can feel like a cloud passing in front of the moon. There's no way to pin this music down—and at its best Lana Del Rey's music never wholly comes across right away. It reveals itself over time. Play the album, come back two weeks later, play it again, and you might find yourself listening to a different record.
Vinyl LP $27.29 | $38.99
There are hints of a rock 'n' roll frame of reference—or something like a penumbra — all through this music: "Hotel California" in the words and Duane Eddy in the opening notes for "God Knows I Tried," the Kinks' "Celluloid Heroes" in "Terrence Loves You," even Connie Francis in "Music to Watch Boys To." None of it matters. The strongest songs impose their own gravity, and nothing escapes it: they create self-enclosed, imaginary landscapes, where winds blow through whatever might be taking shape as a theme.
Tunes don't progress in any conventional manner. They sway, until you can almost see the movies they're scoring. Lana Del Rey floats on her own voice: a song calling up a café in Budapest in 1937 feels as if it's coming out of a radio at least as old, but there are no sound effects. The effect is all in the phrasing, the hesitation, the commitment to the situation that's being created. Most complete is "Religion," with more than ten instruments credited, none of which seem to be there, all of them erased like the filler lyrics by a distant, gorgeous beckoning toward the specter painted by Arnold Böcklin as Isle of the Dead. The creaminess of the voice can hide but not negate the acrid, suicidal loathing that drives this song, "The Blackest Day," or the title song, where you know that even if there's a wedding, the marriage will never make it to a honeymoon. When Del Rey ends with a song that isn't hers—covering the Animals' "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood"—it's no message. This singer is enough of an artist not to care whether you understand her or not, or to claim there's anything to understand. It's a chance to sing in a different rhythm, to focus the song on a word, opening up "good," letting it breathe, letting it tell the whole story. The organ close by Rick Novels, Lana Del Rey's co-writer, is lovely.
Jon Caramanica, who holds the hip-hop and country fiefdoms in the New York Times, is the sort of arts pundit described in Paul Beatty's novel Slumberland: a "master spy who used his cover as a pop-culture critic to prop up dictatorial movements like 'trip-hop,' 'jungle,' 'Dogme 95,' and 'graffiti art' instead of puppet third-world governments." All music is reductively slotted into ever more finely sliced genres, as if Caramanica not only recognizes but owns them, and judged according to how it follows (for hip-hop) or breaks (for country) the rules, as discerned or invented by the writer, of its branded style. Individual performers are presented either as actual people, and their songs treated as personal messages from artist to audience, or as personas, with the music of each personified personage judged according to how effectively, given, in Carmanica's schema, the performer's always transparent intent, the persona is ironically or flatly constructed or deconstructed. Carmanica is the critic as cop—Vice Squad or Red Squad, depending.
"She's been angry, and then bored of being angry, but now she's just bored," he wrote in a review of Honeymoon, stretching the sneer he's tried to impose on Lana Del Rey since the release of her Born to Die. (Oh, the effrontery, using a name she wasn't given!) He went on, alternating left-handed admiration for her elaboration of her being ("her boredom is entrancing") with barely disguised contempt, until he reaches the point where he can compose a closing paragraph so perfectly self-referential it seems less meant to make the writer's point than flatter him: "And so after four years in the limelight, here lounges Ms. Del Rey, immune to the gravitational pull of the discourse about her. Once a careful invention, she is now glassy-eyed and glassy-voiced, too cool to care. The result is something like a dog that, when its leash is tugged, simply lies on the ground and shuts its eyes: basking in the sun, feeding off its warmth, never giving an inch."
A male writer calling a female singer a dog somehow got past the Times's copy editors—or maybe, given how effectively Lana Del Rey offends people, they cheered. But the writer gave himself away with that "immune from the discourse about herself," which is to say her real sin is not paying enough attention to the police reports. No one's getting away with that, especially when the cop owns the discourse, too.
3) Remy Francois, "House of the Rising Sun," 6th Avenue and Herald Square subway station (New York, October 15). A loud, abrasive, supremely confident scattershot electric guitar seemed to shuffle the tiles on the walls. A poker-faced man with a crown on his head was pushing the song's strong melody into abstraction, but the melody would not give itself up; he set off sparks of high notes he erased with a slash. You realized the song would never wear out, not with a musician like this proving that the old folk song, the tenth cut on Bob Dylan's first album, the Animals' world-wide rock 'n' roll hit, had only begun to break out the stories it could tell. A lot of people gave him money.
4) Gee Gee Kettel, "Sultans of Swing," rue de Buci and rue Mazarine (Paris, October 11). A man who's busked around the world since 1980 on a street corner: there was something unyielding in the curl he found in the tune, his steel-body National Resonator turning it into a modal drone—and it sounded better, more alluring, more unsettling, at a distance, in the cold air, than close up.
Hardcover $26.95
5) John Seabrook, The Song Machine: Inside the Hit Factory (Norton). Seabrook is a fine business reporter, and his detailed, bustling portraits of the hit-making of Kelly Clarkson, K-pop idols, the Backstreet Boys, 'N Sync, Rihanna, Katie Perry, Lou Pearlman, Clive Davis, Dr. Luke, and such Swedish technicians as Max Martin are always fascinating. He makes a convincing case that the pop past is as irrelevant as the future, and that hits depend on absolute predictability: of what a song will do once it has presented itself, and of how anyone listening will react. All of which passes by as a kind of rollercoaster seen through a thick glass—until Seabrook begins to adopt the language of the people he's writing about ("a listening party that included Ty Ty fucking Smith, Jay-Z's homeboy" ), gets caught up in the hype surrounding him (Alanis Morrisette's Jagged Little Pill is an "epoch-making hit"—really, what epoch, in the soul of the land or the music business, did it make?), and an inescapable Invasion of the Body Snatchers–Brave New World-1984-They Live cloud begins to hover over every story. IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH, WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY —or, rather, slavery is freedom, at least in the sense that by giving up your ideas, your desires, and your personality, you can have endless hits and enormous amounts of money. Seabrook may be drawing this picture in spite of himself.
6) Jakob Dylan and Cat Power, "You Showed Me," from Echo in the Canyon (Pitchfork). Aren't tribute albums terrible? Who knows about this one, featuring the likes of Beck, Fiona Apple, and a refugee from Edward Sharpe's hideous onstage hippie commune the Magnetic Zeros taking on mid-'60s L.A. so-called canyon music—it won't be out til next year. "You Showed Me" was an unreleased Byrds song covered in 1969 by the Turtles. Their version, inexplicably, or not really, a top ten hit, was so forgettable you couldn't remember it while you were listening to it. It was a tinny pop song: the Byrds played it fast, as if to cover up their own embarrassment (they were going to be a serious band, not some dumb teeny-bopper hit machine, but they were short on songs for demos). Cat Power teases out the foreboding in the corny, cramped melody, until the tune begins to open up, to stretch out, and you can take pleasure in the way she treats words as a chance to almost fall asleep.
7) "Van Morrison Live on Cyprus Avenue," Belfast, Niorthern Ireland (BBC Radio Ulster, August 31). A live broadcast as Morrison returned to boyhood haunts to mark his 70th birthday, spending two hours explaining that, yes, everything really does slow down when you turn that corner, everything sounds like everything else, and where was I? Highlights: "Whatever Happened to P.J. Proby," featuring the long-lost Proby himself, a Texas rocker who never had a hit in the U.S. but tore up the U.K. in the years before the Beatles, who sounds three hundred years old (he's 76); "Sometimes We Cry," for the way the lines "I'm not going to fake it / Like Johnny Ray" still stick out. I don't know why Morrison thinks Johnny Ray was faking it, but he sounds as if he knows exactly what he means, and if you don't, he really doesn't have time to go into it.
8) Pere Ubu, Elitism for the People (Fire). A four-LP box containing the Cleveland "avant-garage" band's first two albums, the formally avant-garde The Modern Dance and the indelible musical film noir Dub Housing, both from 1978, a set of earlier singles that today communicate like a news report and in 1975 or 1977 sounded like science fiction, and a Live at Max's Kansas City 1977 set where real drama takes place. "Sentimental Journey" is stuttering, then desperate, because something isn't right, something isn't working—a fabulous acting out of a moment of complete panic.
9) Dilly Dally, "Desire," from Sore (Partisan). Watching the Toronto singer and guitarist Katie Monks with her not-quite-shoulder-length chopped blonde hair and the dark-haired guitarist Liz Ball bent over her instrument in the video for this chiming and corrugated song, it's hard not to think of Samuel Bayer's video for Nirvana's "Smells Like Team Spirit." There's the same visual focus on both truth-telling and craft, and the feeling that the two elements may have nothing to do with each other. The ground beneath your feel slips a little, then a little more. You stop thinking, as Monks seems to have stopped thinking. You begin to hear the music being made; Ball is only being more careful. This isn't typical. Some of the band's songs can feel contrived, tripping over their own smartness. But this song doesn't explain itself, doesn't reveal itself, and seems to have no limits.
10) Time to Choose, directed by Charles Ferguson, pre-release screening at the Ford Foundation (New York, September 22). Walking-in music for this alternatingly kill-me-now / future-is-bright documentary on what Laurent Fabius, host of the December world conference on climate change in Paris, calls ""climate destruction"" (gruesome footage of mountain-top removal, then wind farms so vast they look like they're on another planet)—Motown. Walking-out music: Tears for Fears, "Everybody Wants to Rule the World."

'Affinity is the work of an intense and atmospheric imagination . . . Sarah Waters is such an interesting writer, a kind of feminist Dickens' Fiona Pitt-Kethley, Daily TelegraphSet in and around the women's prison at Milbank in the 1870s, Affinity is an eerie and utterly compelling ghost story, a complex and intriguing literary mystery and a poignant love story with an unexpected twist in the tale. Following the death of her father, Margaret Prior has decided to pursue some 'good work' with the lady criminals of one of London's most notorious gaols. Surrounded by prisoners, murderers and common thieves, Margaret feels herself drawn to one of the prisons more unlikely inmates - the imprisoned spiritualist - Selina Dawes. Sympathetic to the plight of this innocent-seeming girl, Margaret sees herself dispensing guidance and perhaps friendship on her visits, little expecting to find herself dabbling in a twilight world of seances, shadows, unruly spirits and unseemly passions.

The Mariners and the Public Facilities District agreed in May on terms for a 25-year extension to the team's lease at the stadium. But the deal is contingent on the county council a proposal to send $180 million in hotel-motel tax revenue toward capital projects at Safeco.Joie Medium Grey Lucy Embellished Suede Boots/Booties,
A divided King County Council on Monday questioned the Mariners over a plan to give $180 million in public funds toward fixes at Safeco Field, kicking off a debate over whether the money could instead be used on housing.Christian Louboutin Black Iriza 100 Pumps,
The Mariners and the Public Facilities District that oversees the ballpark had agreed in May on terms for a potential 25-year extension to the team's lease at the stadium, which expires at the end of this year. But the deal is contingent on the county council approving Executive Dow Constantine's proposal to send $180 million in hotel and motel tax revenue toward capital projects at Safeco.
The council had its first opportunity to publicly vet the plan Monday ahead of a committee vote that could happen as soon as Aug. 29 — and a full council vote in September.
Isabel Marant Olive Crisi Ankle Suede Boots/Booties,The council framed the issue largely as a choice between giving the money toward the stadium or using it to build affordable housing. Under state law, 75 percent of the lodging tax revenues in question will go toward housing and the arts — split evenly between the two categories — and the remaining 25 percent can go toward promoting tourism, such as the Mariners' ballpark, or something else such as housing.

he meeting featured an hour and a half of comments from an overflow crowd that exceeded 50 people, mostly housing advocates and others opposing the stadium financing plan. They carried signs reading "homes over home runs."
But the most heated part of the meeting came when council member Dave Upthegrove, who is leading the charge against the stadium financing, got a chance to question Mariners executive Fred Rivera.
Upthegrove noted the value of the Mariners, now estimated at $1.45 billion by Forbes, has grown by $1 billion in the past seven years.Merrell Gray & Black Women's Moab Fst Waterproof Boots/Booties,
Christian Louboutin Black So Kate Patent Leather Point 34.5 Pumps,"Given that, why couldn't (the Mariners) fund these upgrades rather than drain public resources?" Upthegrove said to uproarious applause from the crowd, some of whom noted the team's majority owner, John Stanton, has a net worth valued over $1 billion.
Tory Burch Red White and Blue New Navy Logo Waterproof Knee High Riding Rain M Boots/Booties,Rivera, the team's legal counsel and an executive vice president, pushed back, noting that the Mariners were eyeing over $800 million in stadium fixes and upgrades over the 25-year lease and that the team would be paying for the vast majority of it. He said the stadium is a publicly owned facility and added that the Public Facilities District, with board members appointed by the county and state, had agreed to the public-funding request.Christian Louboutin Camel Napoleo 70 Spike Chain Boots/Booties,
He also pointed to the team's positive impact on the local economy and tax base. And he implied the club's revenues could take a hit in future years as part of the general concern in baseball that fewer fans are attending games.Rag & Bone Gray Green Purple Newbury Suede Ankle Boots/Booties,
The Mariners say the $180 million in public funding would go toward necessary fixes to the stadium's roof, electrical system and other nuts and bolts of the park. The team also plans to fund some $180 million worth of upgrades, including new clubs, concessions and kids areas.Cream New York Leather Platform Ankle 36.5) Boots/Booties,
Councilman Rob Dembowski also seemed skeptical of the Mariners funding plan and asked pointed questions at the meeting.
But at least two council members, Jeanne Kohl-Welles and Pete von Reichbauer, appeared supportive of the plan and sympathetic to the Mariners.Manolo Blahnik White Bibimi Laser Cut Patent Pointed Toe 36.5 Pumps,
Kohl-Welles noted the need for more housing but also lauded the stadium as an important asset to fund.

"For me it doesn't have to be an either/or, mutually exclusive situation (to fund Safeco vs. housing)," she said.
Von Reichbauer noted that local officials had to battle to make sure the Mariners didn't move away before Safeco Field was built and added that he didn't want another "nose-to-nose battle." He said he wanted to "publicly thank the Seattle Mariners for providing" what he said was one of the the last family friendly destinations in the region and brought up the MLB attendance decline multiple times.Valentino Tan Nude Leather Ankle Boots/Booties,
"Salvatore Ferragamo Navy Blue Ross Cutout Boots/Booties,This is still a financial challenge for everyone across the board," he said.
Forever 21 Black Rose Gold Skeletal Vegan Leather Like Alexander Wang Ankle Boots/Booties,Council President Joe McDermott, along with von Reichbauer and Kohl-Welles, had previously co-sponsored the general resolution on spending the lodging tax funds — the plan that includes the ballpark funding. Other council members in attendance asked mostly neutral questions at Monday's meeting.
The Mariners have said if the county rejects the funding, it would sign a short-term lease to stay at Safeco for up to five years, then go back to the drawing board to negotiate a long-term lease.

I like the nod to the classic LEGO Ideas Book with the 'Follow Me' sticker, but overall I think the F-18 type jet is redundant, making the whole thing over-priced. Had it been presented in a different colour scheme from the Viggen, and maybe a bit of a sleeker or more agile design in itself, it might have been a worthwhile inclusion. But as it is, it just superficially looks like two fairly similar aircraft, and thus quite a bit less value for money as a set.
Compared to other major European hub airports, like Charles de Gaulle or Heathrow, CPH has a similar number of connections, but is much smaller in both actual size and passenger volumes, and can provide a calmer, more pleasant experience. Its location in the south of Scandinavia makes reaching most European destinations reasonable, and flying to destinations in the Baltic region and in Eastern Europe generally only takes half the time as from major hub airports in Western Europe.

Here's a look at the Iron Man and War Machine minifigures. Tony Stark is rocking his Mark 46 Armour which should delight LEGO Iron Man collectors as it's another cool variant. If you ask me, I can't quite tell most of the suits apart, but I do appreciate that LEGO give us a fresh new Iron Man minifig with each movie-themed set. Both Iron Man and War Machine are exclusive to this set.
If you've watched Captain America: Civil War, you'd know that the airport is the scene of one of the coolest superhero showdowns ever, with Team Iron Man and Team Captain America duking it out on the tarmac. The scene is chaotic, gorgeously choreographed and most importantly stolen by the likes of Spider-Man (not included in this set) and Ant-Man transforming into the aptly named Giant-Man.
Stickers are used for decorations for the outside of the plane. I like how the stickers for the outside match colours with the piping on the plane. I found the sticker for the top of the door to be a little big; if you line up the orange on the bottom of the stickers with the orange on the plane the sticker overlaps a bit at the top. The stickers for the nose of the plane are not as difficult to apply as I thought they would be. They do seem a bit superfluous, though they do make the plane look nice. The plane is finished with the tail fin, that uses yet more stickers. It is interesting that this plane actually uses more stickers than the Friends plane does.
Young builders and adventurers will love conquering a construction challenge and then taking a trip with LEGO City Airlines. This set features an airport terminal facade with control tower, luggage conveyor belt, revolving doors, and security check. The passenger airplane has a door that opens, a galley, and a lavatory, and there is also a luggage trailer, a fuel trailer, a mobile stairway, and an airport service car. Great for inspiring imaginative play, this impressive set can be combined with others in the LEGO City Airport collection for endless role play and configuration options.
The Lego Group's motto is det bedste er ikke for godt which means roughly "only the best is the best" (more literally "the best is never too good").[8] This motto, which is still used today, was created by Christiansen to encourage his employees never to skimp on quality, a value he believed in strongly.[8] By 1951 plastic toys accounted for half of the Lego company's output, even though the Danish trade magazine Legetøjs-Tidende ("Toy-Times"), visiting the Lego factory in Billund in the early 1950s, felt that plastic would never be able to replace traditional wooden toys.[13] Although a common sentiment, Lego toys seem to have become a significant exception to the dislike of plastic in children's toys, due in part to the high standards set by Ole Kirk.[14]
Parking capacity at Copenhagen Airport was greatly expanded in 2015 with the construction of a new lot as one of the first phases in an ambitious airport expansion plan scheduled to roll out in the coming decades. There are several lots: those near the terminals are very expensive, while the further-flung ones are cheaper (but have free shuttle bus service to the terminals).

It took me a long time to get to where I am. Plenty of people walking over me and taking advantage of me. Years of frustration and resentment. But then a very good thing happened - I left the god delusion and the church, and grew up finally. So I'm just trying to tell people how it is - leave these kinds of people instead of wasting your time with them.
Which is exactly why I wouldn't be friends with them to begin with, they're the kind of fair weather 'I'll be your friend as long as I don't hear about your real shit in life' friends, and what does that say about them? Completely non supportive. I'd move on, upwards and onwards and all that, and if they want to know why, tell them it's because they can't deal with the shitty side of life in a realistic manner.
Personally, I haven't, the types of people who tell me to toughen up with that meaning take the revolving door into my life and the revolving door right out of it as well. I've had enough of their kind and they're no longer welcome. You're a guy though, so I'm guessing you could be dealing with some typical "don't talk about your shit" machismo. Which is never productive in the end anyhow, imo.
It's better to be left unsaid in that case, and "I don't know what to say, so I won't give advice" is the proper advice. This "toughen up" shit just makes some scenarios ten times worse (by piling guilt on people and making them feel inadequate, when they may have enough to handle as it is).
TruthSeeker0 started following Questions for believers, Just toughen up! and 50+ Healing Scriptures For Cancer Patients
More context required. "Potentially harmful", in what way? Why are you afraid, possible physical violence, emotional abuse, another reason? Also if you know another person might do you harm, and are afraid of them, I'd ignore any and all 'toughen up' comments and do what's best for me - avoiding or getting away from the threat altogether. You don't require any kind of validation or advice from another human to do what's best for you (that's how they can control you), just do what's best for you.
50+ Healing Scriptures For Cancer Patients
TruthSeeker0 replied to endtimesmessages's topic in The Lion's DenAw shucks, keep on going, this is entertaining stuff.
This is not necessarily a bad thing. For example your husband may eventually end up leaving fundamentalism, and joining a more liberal church if his beliefs change. This alone I'm guessing would be of major benefit to you, it's certainly easier to accomodate than very rigid, judgemental black and white thinking. Some people for some reason find letting go of god impossible to do, and compromise is necessary. It is natural that he is coming up with explanations that allow him to ignore contradictions - xtians must do this out of necessity. And he may not be comfortable with facing the really big difficult questions. Facing the possibility that your whole worldview may be a farce, and that your god may not be, is very daunting. If he shows any interest over time in exploring this I would casually mention books or authors that you have read.
50+ Healing Scriptures For Cancer Patients
TruthSeeker0 replied to endtimesmessages's topic in The Lion's DenI see we have gained another Christbot.
If they are strong independent thinkers I wouldn't be very worried about them. They may feel they have no "permission" to explore their beliefs (or let on they are) if their dad is authoritarian about religion, but if they want to do so, they will do so (speaking as someone who did this and dropped a complete bombshell on my parents). They have you as a great example which is really important and from what you've said about your son, you have an important ally. Your husband may feel increasingly on the defensive since the power dimension has changed in the household, so I would just keep open communication and be patient, this is major change for him and probably threatening if he's the 'man of the house' type. A few statements here and there such as the ones you gave him that left him at a loss for words may be all that is required for things to begin to gradually shift in his mind.
Questions for believers
TruthSeeker0 replied to Castiel233's topic in The Lion's DenSo must lost potential here, and so many potential followers to be had
TruthSeeker0 replied to Christforums's topic in The Lion's Den@Justus What's Phasmalogy TM? And why is a holy ghost your god?
Something along the lines of "I noticed when I was religious that the polarized us vs them, religious vs non religious view of the world was bothering me (if thats the case), and I began to question why" in that letter might help enlighten him a bit. Anything that might help him relate to how you felt or are feeling. Perhaps it's not so much repression as denying responsibility for creating one's problems and responsibility for solving them, because with xtianity, everything is god-given, solutions included. Personal responsibility is something that is difficult with fundies. I highly recommend reading Marlene Winell's book Leaving the Fold, this is what she has to say about responsibility and avoiding problems: Edit: I denied my own problems when I was fundie, I had a real struggle with how much I absolutely hated and was angry about everything that had been put on my plate because "god is love" and "all things are good with god." You are not supposed to question that. If there are solutions, those as well will be god-given. Thus, people end up sitting there passively, thinking shit like "god will heal me" or "god will heal my marriage." It's crazy.
It depends what he was yelling about, was he just venting frustration over the issue? Or was he yelling at you that you're going to hell, in a dominating way? I'm curious, because domination is all part of the patriarchy thing, ie "you're my wife, you should be listening to ME, because MY opinion matters." First off the bat, if yelling starts, I would wait until he's finished, calmly tell him you both need a time out and you should return to the discussion when you've both calmed down. But before you do that acknowledge each others frustration etc. Geez I'm starting to sound like a counsellor here etc, I'm just thinking what I'd do in this scenario, because I know yelling is a major trigger for me and I easily yell back and no that doesn't help.
Good idea. My limit personally would be with someone who isn't willing to consider the impact of their actions on my feelings, and aside from that, my feelings and thoughts in general (men in patriarchal systems are much less able to do this imo, it's almost as if the patriarchy gives them an out because their opinions and decisions have more value). That is where I would start planning the divorce route.
He likely has a very us vs them approach to religious and non-religious people, ie "this therapist will never be on my side" or even "this therapist is also led by the devil." It's difficult to make progress in that scenario. The key is getting him to see your perspective. Edit: also, religion often goes hand in hand with denying or repressing problems in your life.

Thank you for your letter, Roger Shaputis (Mailbag, Jan. 17). You make a lot of sense. The U.S. can't afford to support all these people wanting a free ride.

Some Notes on Salinger
"If you really want to hear about it…" 1. He's not really talking to you, it's a ruse. Nor is he someone you want to chat with on the phone. Trust me on this. But don't let it hurt your feelings. Like most of us, he's talking to himself. It's performance art, a term that contains its own contradiction. He (or his characters, whichever you prefer) is trying very hard not to go crazy.

Ted Chiang's Impersonal Universe
I close my eyes and see a flock of birds. The vision lasts a second or perhaps less; I don't know how many birds I saw. Were they a definite or an indefinite number? This problem involves the question of the existence of God. If God exists, the number is definite, because how many birds I saw is known to God. If God does not exist, the number is indefinite, because nobody was able to take count. In this case, I saw fewer than ten birds (let's say) and more than one; but I did not see nine, eight, seven, …Continue reading
Coda, or a Ninth Case: Trump v. Hawaii
Three years ago, my essay "Shiftiness: The Border in Eight Cases" approached the border from eight different routes. The years since have only increased the urgency of dealing with the border in a humane and just way. "The law constitutes a 'we' through an official story," scholar Priscilla Wald wrote in her 1994 book, Constituting Americans: Cultural Anxiety and Narrative Form. But: "An official story of 'a people' invariably lags behind the seismic demographic changes and corresponding untold stories that ultimately compel each revision." These days, we're immersed in the conflict that churns beneath the changing text. When Donald Trump …Continue reading

Making the Case for Hidden Wonder: 'In Defense of Monsters' by B.J. Hollars
B.J. Hollars' short essay collection, In Defense of Monsters (Bull City Press; 40 pages), opens on a world with no mysteries left. Now that seemingly every corner of the globe has been charted, and Google Earth allows one to zoom in on any coordinate one desires, the encroachment of human civilization on the natural world leaves us with little to explore. It wasn't always the case: in the 20th century, even as horror spread across Europe and a racially divided America, the World's Fairs promised a tomorrow full of discovery, and pulp novels sold readers on the idea of lost …Continue reading
Shiftiness: The Border in Eight Cases
President Donald Trump's revised travel ban—an executive order targeting Yemen, Sudan, Iran, Syria, Somalia, and Libya, and reducing the number of refugees allowed into the country from 110,000 to 50,000 people—was to have taken effect today. The order was met with legal challenges in three states, challenges in which groups such as the ACLU and the Northwest Immigration Rights Program argued that it remained, among other things, a thinly disguised ban on Muslims. But yesterday, as the New York Times reported, Judge Derrick K. Watson in Hawaii issued a nationwide order blocking the ban.
In April 2015, ZYZZYVA published Julie Chinitz's essay "Shiftiness: The Border in Eight Cases" in its Spring/Summer issue. Chinitz, who volunteered with the Northwest Immigration Rights Program in the early '90s, carefully considers in her piece the ideas of borders, of immigration, of refugees, of what it means to come to this country and what it means to be an American. Her insights remain significantly relevant, given the objectives of the Trump White House. The fifth section of the essay—"Borders and Bodies"—especially so, as she looks at the case of United States v. Montoya de Hernandez. Because of that Supreme Court ruling, she writes, it's "why to this day people can find themselves locked up at the border, hours on end, with no idea what they're suspected of having done wrong. … In his dissent in Montoya de Hernandez, Justice Brennan raised a warning about this kind of abuse … 'Indefinite involuntary incommunicado detentions "for investigation" are the hallmark of a police state,' he wrote, 'not a free society'."
She further notes: "In legal terms, border points such as those at airports are called the 'functional equivalent of the border.' They also include territorial waters, spots where roads coming from the actual border converge, UPS sorting hubs, etc.: places that aren't exactly the border, but close enough."
We believed at the time of publication that Chinitz's essay was important, and the weeks since Inauguration Day have only confirmed our view. The following is "Shiftiness: The Border in Eight Cases" in full. We urge you to read it.
'Flood Control' by Rebecca Thomas, ZYZZYVA No. 108, Winter Issue
Rebecca Thomas, who is currently working on a novel, has had her work appear in Prairie Schooner, The Massachusetts Review, Gulf Stream and other publications. Her essay, "Flood Control," appears in the new issue of ZYZZYVA.
An English instructor at West Virginia University, Thomas grew up in Orange County. Though known as a region afflicted by drought, Southern California has long had to contended with deluge, too. "Flood Control" is Thomas's examination—personal and historical—of a place's fraught relationship with water. The following in an excerpt but you can read the essay in its entirety by getting a copy here.
'Language to Swarm and Eat' the Hopelessness: 'A Bestiary' by Lily Hoang
Lily Hoang's new book, A Bestiary (156 pages; Cleveland State University Poetry Center), proves why a healthy amount of skepticism—at times bordering on distaste—for the self is an undervalued trait in literature. Throughout her collection, Hoang blurs the line between personal essay and prose poetry as she takes stock of her life and often comes to some unflattering conclusions. Reflecting on an unsatisfying, on-and-off-again relationship with her lover, she writes, "I feel like a feminist poser, talking a big game about empowerment but living a reality of passivity and self-contempt." A Bestiary offers a snapshot of a turbulent time in …Continue reading
'Eldorado' by Lauren Alwan: ZYZZYVA No. 105, Winter 2015
Lauren Alwan is a staff contributor at LitStack, a literary news and review site, and her fiction has appeared in StoryQuarterly, the Alaska Quarterly Review—and next spring—in the Bellevue Literary Review, for her story "The Foreign Cinema," which won the Goldenberg Prize for Fiction. Her essay "Eldorado" appears in the Winter issue.
Set in the mid-1970s in Northern California, Alwan's writes of the time she was a young woman, building a house with a boyfriend in Siskiyou County. This slice of memoir isn't just about that, of course. It delves into the culture of people trying to live off the land, the harsh realities of rural life, and what it means to have a home. It also thoughtfully examines her relationships with her father and with her boyfriend (whom she knew she'd never create a life with, despite their house). The following is an excerpt from "Eldorado."

The principle is rather easy. When the circuit is broken, an alarm sounds. The alarm noise really comes right from the sensing unit itself.
Later, we'll go into the benefits and drawbacks of this system, along with all of the other choices.
Remote Wired Home Alarm Systems
The wired alarm are a standard alternative in California that have actually been popular for a variety of years now. This kind of system consists of a control panel, as well as wired sensing units and motion detectors. The electronic cameras included with this system are wired also.

These systems can frequently be found in departments stores and online for well under a $100. They are also exceptionally easy to install.
They generally include batteries, and after that you simply have to put them around your house on the doors and windows according to the directions.

There is no tracking, and these types of alarms are reasonably easy to disable. It could be a momentary choice for those on a budget plan. If you are saving up for an actual wired or wireless system, you might use it for a short time. nevertheless, it's the weakest of your choices.
Advantages And Disadvantages Of Wireless Burglar Systems in San Diego
The wired alarm systems are certainly a step up from the local alarms. These devices have a lower cost than the wireless systems, and considering that they are wired, you don't have to fret about batteries to power the system.

It is possible to set up the system by yourself. Nevertheless, it will likely require an expert considering that it is more complex. This could in fact negate that the price of the system is lower than cordless.
If you ultimately plan to vacate the home, the system is a lot more tough to bring with you. It's possible, it just takes longer, and you need to go through the setup process again at your brand-new location.

If you have a business, you wish to keep it just as safe as you do your house.

However, if business is currently wired for a system, you can do with a wired system. You don't wish to use local alarms here as they are inadequate. They might be able to scare off a trespasser, but that's not something you want to count on.

As a sophomore on the varsity cheer squad who has the attention of dumb-as-rocks (but hot) footballer Jake Londgren, Nora Fulbright has morphed socially from "larval state—practically a worm" into a fully formed butterfly. In order to up her PQ, or popularity quotient, brainy Nora switches out of her AP courses and joins the masses. But when Adam—cute, crazy smart, and gives Nora the good kind of shivers—moves to town, how can she get him to see that she is not just a ditzy cheerleader? And that she is not interested in Jake? In Valentine's sassy debut, readers will groan as Nora messes everything up, and may grow frustrated with her choices ("For a smart girl you've had a pretty solid run of stupid"), but if they relate to her plight, they will find her funny, too. Grades 7-12. --Ann Kelley
Few calls a day when we not together and I never know when we meet….weekends he will be with me..sometimes even that I will not have….Talking about moving in together…but I'm thinking…do I really want to end up in huge house alone?? he is never home….I met him,I thought he working in zoo…I liked that idea…then I realized that little zoo…is not job.It's his hobby…But was to late.I was in love.
Now when it comes to "getting" your man, there is one thing you must not do if you want a man to see a future with you. Do not treat him like some kind of project that needs to be fixed because it immediately brings up the walls. If you have the urge to try to change his clothes, his circle of friends, the way he talks, what he loves to do — don't do it!
You just haven't met the right person yet! When you meet someone who makes you light up, you'll know. Until then, there's no point in stressing out. You might be a little shy around strangers, but it's worth making an effort to meet new people (and get to know the people you already know a little bit better). Don't worry if it takes a little time. The best things in life are worth waiting for!
Mirroring is a psychological tactic that has been used for years. When done incorrectly, you can come across like a major creep, but when done right, mirroring is highly effective to make your guy fall in love. Mirroring is all about staying in tune with your guy's actions. If you go out to dinner, and he takes a sip of his drink, take a sip of your drink, too. If he leans in while telling a good story, lean in toward him, as well. Mimicking his body movements will lead him to believe that the two of you are on the same wavelength, and he won't be able to stop himself from feeling attracted to you.
Men are all about the game of cat and mouse. They love to chase females and they love it when a woman leaves them on the edge of their seat wanting more. And for that reason, you need to be mysterious- even through text messages. If he asks you what you're doing, don't just tell him you're bored alone at home. Maybe you could take an extra couple minutes to text him back and say, "Oh, sorry it's taking me so long to text back right now! My hands are kind of full at the moment. I'll text you in about an hour". That makes him wonder- what is this girl up to?
"Getting out there" doesn't have to mean singles clubs or a series of blind dates. Meet new people by taking up a hobby or signing up for class. You're more likely to meet likeminded individuals if you're doing what you love, plus the pressure's off: even if you don't meet Mr. Right there, you're enjoying yourself and advancing a skill. (And if you do meet someone, you'll immediately have something in common to chat about)
Follow the Golden Rule. That means apply the same rules to yourself that you'd apply to others, including him. Real men do in fact notice this; they just don't scream it out. For example, if he tells you he has a girlfriend and things are not working out, Stop! and think ladies and gentlemen that this could be a "test" on how you would handle the situation, so stand your ground and cut off communication (hint: "Golden Rule"). Don't go on about how you "don't NEED no man!" or about "men this, men that" if you don't want him treating you the same way. DO, on the other hand, treat him--and others--with respect, dignity, and honor. Others will notice, too, and who knows--if they know you want a good, real man but don't yet have one, they just might introduce you to one!
Now before you attack that idea as sexist, we're really just talking about two people who come together to love, care for and make each other's life even better by forming a cooperative partnership here. The real beauty of a relationship is when two people come together with a desire to give rather than just take. That's when the magic is unleashed.
I Want Him To Ask Me Out
If he's not pursuing you, it's time to stop pursuing him. Guys who are interested text back. Guys who aren't don't. Don't bother trying to change his mind. You need to have the confidence to realize that if a guy doesn't see how great you are, it's his loss. Let go of him and move on to a guy who will be excited to have you in his life. You can't fight for a guy who's not fighting for you. At the end of the day, you just have to accept that no message is a message — that's his way of telling you he's just not interested.
Guys who are actually interested will make time for you. Everyone's busy AF, but if a guy actually cares, he'll do whatever it takes to be in your life. That means he won't leave you hanging on a text. He'll text back because he actually wants to talk to you. Seeing your name light up his phone will make him happy, not annoyed, and he'll be more than happy to shoot over a few words to keep the conversation going.
So, you've got the moobs like Jabba. Life's just not fair, is it? Well, no, that much should be obvious. However, there may be certain things contributing to your bountiful bosoms that are within your control. While it's not guaranteed that cutting out sugar or choosing a new moisturiser will flatten your chest overnight, a few lifestyle tweaks can have a positive effect.
Some people are clearly better than others at this. I have two sets of friends — one couple is married with children, and another couple will soon be married — who have met through me. I don't try to set anyone up, I just enjoy going out with all of my friends. So, I work hard to merge my college friends with my work friends with my high school friends.
Make Him Love Me
Chopstick couples do what each needs to do in a coordinated effort to get the job done, no fixed responsibilities that are the sole job of one person or the other. Sometimes it works out to leverage the strengths of one person over the other, like my husband will go get a needle and thread to fix my pants while baking bread and watching football… and I'll be reading a PF article and picking ETFs, sitting next to him while doing the laundry. Things get done to both our benefit.
