Pet Stories: In Your Own Words
Horse Shopping with Help from the Spirits and the Stars
I'd been thinking of getting a horse again ever since I heard author Linda Kohanov give a lecture on horses and spirituality for IONS, the Institute of Noetic Sciences chapter here in Tucson. She is the author of The Tao of Equus and other books on developing a mystical relationship with horses. As I sat weeping in the first row, I felt a longing to have a relationship with a horse again, something I hadn't dared to experience since the horse I had as a teenager died tragically when I was sixteen.
Within a month of Linda's talk, I had started riding lessons again, and I resumed being a horse handler at Therapeutic Riding of Tucson (TROT). I subscribed to horse magazines, went to dressage shows and tried to catch up on all of the latest inventions in the horse world that had been invented in the last twenty-five years. At forty-three, I felt like a girl again.
My riding instructor Rosemary was a great inspiration. My son and I rode with her once a week, and I had recently started to enjoy the thrill of jumping again.
My next-door neighbor Joanna started talking to me about getting a horse again. Her barn had been empty ever since we'd moved in, but she was feeling the urge to get a horse again. She offered me the other stall in her two-horse barn if I wanted to get a horse too. It would be board-free!
So, it seemed I was manifesting getting a horse. I had a history of being good at manifesting. When I was a kid I bought brushes, a bit, and a halter and hung them in my closet. I collected the clippings from the lawn mower in a bucket and added that and a carton of Quaker Oats to my closet, just in case I woke up one day and there was a pony tied to the tree.
Sure enough, when I was in fourth grade, Mom came to school one day and got me out of class. I was bewildered until she squealed, "I got you a pony! And we're going to see him right now!" That pony was the first of several horses that would be my mystical partners as a child and teenager.
I started looking on Craigslist. Every night I perused the Farm/Garden section looking for "The One." On December 18, 2009, I saw a horse who caught my eye. He looked a lot like my horse that had died. I called the girl who owned him and got the lowdown on him, but I had to tell her that I wasn't quite sure I was really going to buy a horse, and that I was just looking for now.
In late January, my neighbor got her horse, a beautiful grey thoroughbred. He arrived with a horse friend to help acclimate him to his new home. I started taking care of the mare, and this was good practice for me until she went home. I continued to look on Craigslist, and in the meantime, I met Annette Lindstrom, who is a medium. I decided to have a reading with her on the phone. I asked her if my relatives from the other side had any words of wisdom about my looking for a horse. She told me that they were showing her a blond, small seashell, and she felt like she was at the ocean. A bit disappointed, I thought to myself, "Thanks, a lot--like that's going to help me find the right horse." Little did I know! She also described my horse that had died, and told me to forgive myself for his death. He had been killed by a truck shortly after I sent him back to my dad's farm after boys had become more exciting to me than horses. The people in the truck had died, too. I had a hard time with the guilt.
My friend Theresa had a dream that I was showing her my new horse at night at Joanna's barn. I'd introduced him to her as "Buddy." Surprised, I told her, "That's the name of the horse I liked from Craigslist. I wonder if he's still available! " So, I got out the paper that I'd printed about him and looked at my notes. The girl who owned him was named Shell. The horse was blond colored. Whoa. I called her.
Buddy was still for sale, so I drove up to Maricopa to ride him. I took Theresa with me. Buddy was kind of rough-looking, with a grown-out winter coat and lots of surface cuts from fighting with the other horses in the herd. But he rode great on our trail ride, so I called my husband Jeff from the car and asked him to cast an astrological chart called a Horary. These are used when someone has a specific question they want answered. I asked, "Is it my best interest to buy this horse?" He checked and answered, "Yes!"
Just to be prudent, I tried out a few other horses, but Buddy kept staying in my mind. At one point I rode a beautiful black horse that was very obedient. I was just about to give the owner a deposit when I called Jeff and asked him to cast a chart on the possibility of owning this horse. He didn't like the chart. So, I walked away and went home to schedule a vet check for Buddy.
I met the vet out in Maricopa on a windy day. She examined Buddy and reported that she heard sand in his gut, a common problem in Arizona. She asked me if I wanted to listen to the noise it made. Her exact words were, "It sounds just like your at the ocean." Wow. Another sign.
Jeff used astrology to select a good day for me to get Buddy. We left the house with a rented trailer and picked him up. He was filthy, he didn't load easily, and he pawed in the trailer all the way home. I was worried about my choice. We got him home just after sunset, just like in Theresa's dream.
For the first month he was nervous, and flinched when touched. He looked terrible while healing from numerous cuts. But he healed up beautifully, and I kept him for a year and a half.
We had several fun adventures before I decided to sell him once the price of hay skyrocketed and I decided that having a horse was more than I had bargained for in many ways. My neighbor and I had trouble scheduling our rides, and our horses were buddy sour, which meant they didn't want to go out riding unless they were together.
Sensing that my horse owning adventure was coming to an end, I turned to Jeff again. The market was flooded with 150 horses for sale on Craigslist when I checked. Jeff told me to take my photos and prepare my text for the ad, and then wait until he could find a good date and time for me to post the ad.
Of course, I followed his advice, and placed the ad at the good astrological time. Ten minutes later, a woman named Tammy called me. She wanted to come right over to see Buddy, so I hurriedly brushed him and cleaned his stall. She loved Buddy and returned the next day with her neighbor, a horse expert who looked him over. Two days later Tammy returned with her husband and a trailer and took Buddy to his new home in Vail.
I felt a final pang of guilt and heartbreak as Buddy and his stablemate neighed their goodbyes. But I knew he was going to a great new home. I don't miss having a horse. I am enjoying my family and other pets. I am grateful for the time Buddy and I had together. It was great to be his transition home. He really left my care a different horse--one that was much more calm around people, much healthier and happier. He was a wonderful experiment in following my bliss.

All roads lead to philosophy, on Wikipedia
Jeffrey Winter tests a hunch about links leading to philosophy on Wikipedia:
There was an idea floating around that continuously following the first link of any Wikipedia article will eventually lead to "Philosophy." This sounded like a reasonable assertion, one that makes a certain amount of sense in retrospect: any description of something will typically use more general terms. Following that idea will eventually lead… somewhere.
Winter's curiosity led to this simple mashup. Type in some terms in the search bar and see where those topics lead to. Lo and behold, they all reach philosophy somehow. The above was my own search for economy, poop, science, Forrest Gump, hamburger, and Chicago. Philosophy: the Kevin Bacon of Wikipedia.
49 Comments
The more interesting observation may be that all roads to philosophy pass through mathematics (at least all the words I've tried – even "Sarah Palin" for some strange reason).
I was interested in what comes after Philosophy. As it turns out it is a endless loop between Philosophy, reason and rationality. I have not yet found a page which does not eventually lead to this loop.
something has changed in wikipedia in the last week. modern philosophy no longer leads to philosophy as shown in the diagram above. Instead, it links to western europe which, in turn, leads to a second endless loop between low context culture and high context culture.
paper towels doesn't lead to math then philosophy
yes it does
Backpack doesn't…
yes it does? I just did it
12 links from Jeremy Clarkson to Philosophy.
This is the second form of this I have seen. The first has been floating around the internet for a while and it's that you can get to the World War 2 article by any other article.
In fact I would hazard a guess that you can reach any article (a) from any other article (b) inside Wikipedia.
I agree. The essence of interconnectedness is that everything leads to everything else.
If a search for "poop" leads to "philosophy", then the reverse is also true.
I suspect that any search eventually also leads to "poop". But it would go too far to formulate the metaphysical conclusion that anything in the universe that is not founded on philosophy, is founded on poop.
::If a search for "poop" leads to "philosophy", then the reverse is also true.::
Not quite – links work one direction: forward, and you will not always be able to link directly back to the page you came from.
For example – Coca-cola links directly to Carbonation, but Carbonation doesn't link to Coca-cola.
However, it's likely that if you strategically click through the links on a page, you can link virtually any 2 items on Wikipedia (and it's pretty fun to race against a friend to see who can link 2 items first!).
Spice Girls, Paint & Spatula lead to Philosophy – but all of these continue on to 'Reason'.
"All Roads Lead To Reason" is much better. ;)
Although – 'Fraggle Rock' defies you all.
I think the point of the Kevin Bacon game is the constraint of 6 degrees. Otherwise, as in this case, you can follow any number of links so you're really just saying that Wikipedia articles form a (huge) connected component of which Philosophy is (necessarily) a member. I think a more interesting search would be to figure out whether there are disconnected components.
Try telecommunications, as found on the linked site. Does anyone know of any more cycles?
So… it looks great and you can play around with it for hours. But does it really work? Take "telecommunications" for instance. The last page in the chain, the one that is supposed to link to philosophy is Title 13 of the United States Code – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_13_of_the_United_States_Code – the first link of which leads to United States Census. Which as far as I know is not a synonym of Philosophy. It seems that the script "connects" every page to Philosophy even if there is no connection. Or am I missing something here?
Robert M. Pirsig in his book Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance wrote that everything in life is a single part of philosopy. Economy? is a small part of philosopy, Religion? just a small part of philosophy… Science? Depends on your philosopy! And so on… :)
So it's not true. As mentioned by Jeffrey there are loops in the system. Take Physics and Natural Science for example. The first link in each is the other, which Jeffrey has coded to avoid.
no its not
first link on Natural Science is Science which leads to philosophy.
Philosophy > Rational Argument (Reason) > Rationality > Philosophy
Fascinating! I love seeing online apps like this. Some really unexpected links between subjects, though. Searching for Peter Frampton gives:
Peter Frampton > England > Country > Geographic > Geography > Earth > Planet > Orbit > Physics > Natural Science > Naturalism (philosophy) > Philosophy
Transport!!!!!!!! USE TRANSPORT!!!!!!!!
Never mind it doesn't work.
Starting with Paris Hilton got me stuck in a property and magnitude loop.
Ashtray doesn't work.
Yes it does.
NOT EVERYTHING! wet tshirt contest ends up in a male-gender loop (dont question)
Nope, this also ends up at philosophy via the biology-science-knowledge etc. link.
Fraggle Rock >Spirituality>Reality>Philosophy. Bam!
Ashtray>Spain>Roman Catholicism>Western Civilization>Philosophy. Suck it!
Last one,
Transport>Technology>Greek>Philosophy. BooYa!
An interesting component I found was to see how many links were required to get to philosophy. For instance shrimp toast requires 29 clicks. I'm sure this has implications for the meaning of life.
I've checked, and only pages that have red links first don't lead to Philosophy. Scary.
Interestingly, it's now broken for one of the examples (at least for the moment). I get: Academia -> Community -> Living -> Life -> Physical body -> Physics -> Natural science -> Branch_(academia) -> Academia, since community now goes to living, not to interacting.
I suppose some people would say that cycling back on itself is an accurate representation of Academia.
Truth and Fact are endless loops with each other as well.
i have been at this since yesterday when i first heard about being able to do it, and absolutely nothing i have tried makes it to philosophy. I have even sat here and gone through what others have posted, and if you follow the rules (click the first word that is not italic or in parenthesis), there are places where people have clicked the 2nd or 3rd word listed that meets those requirements, not the 1st. And with Gary's comment, everything I do ends up looping between Truth and Fact
Oddly enough, "Courtney Love" is a black hole.
thejonsays is doing it wrong… you don't have to pick any link but the first… though dog and grey wolf loop
Not anymore at any rate. Ended up at philosophy.
America>CocaCola>cancer(Of the Brain) I have a one cell brain and its the best I can produce !!!!
diego rosende is a paradox and does not reach philosophy
Actually it does…
if it's not working for you, the problem is you're doing it wrong. remember to click on the FIRST, UN-ITALICISED, OUT-OF-PARENTHESIS, hyperlink. hope it helps. :D
What the guy above me said. EVERY topic links to philosophy and then ends in an endless loop there if you follow those rules. As far as I have been able to tell there is no other chain like this.
new year doesn't!!!

Wednesday, 30 December 2009 02:40
We are sorry to report the death of Steve "Dr. Death" Williams, an international star who was considered one of the top wrestlers in the world during the late 80s and early 90s, after a lengthy battle with cancer.
Williams, known in his heyday as one of the physically toughest men ever to compete in the industry, was 49. He passed away last night. He had been battling the disease for a number of years, first apparently beating it even with great odds against him. It came back this year and his health had worsened in the last few months.
Williams formed two of the world's best tag teams with the late Terry Gordy and with Ted DiBiase Sr., as well as a notable team with current WWE Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis. He was in particular a major star in the 90s for All Japan Pro Wrestling. He was recruited into pro wrestling by Bill Watts and was the 1982 Rookie of the Year.
Watts discovered him at the University of Oklahoma, where he was a star lineman on the football team and a four-time All-American heavyweight wrestler. Many of his peers in wrestling over the years had believed if he had not played college football and concentrated on wrestling, that he would have been a strong candidate for an Olympic gold medal in 1984 or 1988.

DiMarzio DP151 PAF Pro PickupThe DiMarzio PAF Pro® was created when chops-intensive playing was reaching high popularity, and high-gain amps and rack systems were the norm. A pickup was needed that combined a lot of presence and "cut" with an open-sounding PAF® vibe. The transparency of its sound lets the PAF Pro® slice through heavy processing, where darker-sounding pickups get lost in the mud of the effects chain. Low notes have both snap and chunk, and there is a spike in the midrange that gives the pickup a subtle "aw" vowel sound, like a wah-wah pedal stopped in the middle. Treble response is tweaked, so high notes stand out without getting brittle. The PAF Pro® makes an outstanding neck pickup in almost any guitar, and it's an exceptional bridge pickup when high output isn't required.The PAF Pro® is a dependable choice right across the board -- neck and bridge positions, solidbody, semi-hollow and hollowbody guitars are equally effective uses.This is a great building block pickup, because it's effective in many different situations. Try it in the neck position with a hotter bridge pickup - anything from a Norton® to a Super Distortion® will create a calibrated two-humbucker match. As a bridge pickup, it's really effective with single-coils, because it won't drown them out with too much power, and it's bright enough to blend in tone-wise.
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
DiMarzio did it again. With the several different versions of the PAF that they have put out, this is by far the most impressive of them all. The pickup itself mixes well with others (stock or brand name) and stands well on its own. I personally have one in the bridge position of my main guitar and was blown away by the sound. With the music that I play, it is it is important that when I kick into overdrive that you hear the crunch, but don't drown out the notes.
With the PAF Pro I am able to dial in a nice dirty sound, but still retain that Gretsch hollowbody type clarity so that you actually hear the chord and not a wall of distortion. I was so impressed that I actually ordered two more for the neck and bridge positions on my backup guitar.
* Price guarantee valid on all new in-stock merchandise sold by an authorized U.S. Dealer. Guarantee does not apply to discontinued, blemished, damaged, closeout, open box, refurbished or auction items. You will be contacted via email shortly after submission of request.

Update Saturday evening:
A Dallas hospital spokeswoman confirms Miami-Dade Detective Jaime Pardinas was released Saturday morning. His family says he is expected to return home to Florida soon.
Update 12:00pm
We're getting a clearer picture of what led to the police confrontation and fatal shooting of Alberto Morales.
Sgt. Robert Eberling with Grapevine Police said officers heard rustling in the woods near the home on Lake Ridge Drive where the burglary was reported on Friday night. Police called for a helicopter search of the area and officers surrounded the suspect in an opening once he was spotted.
At that point, Sgt. Eberling said, three officers ordered Morales to surrender. Eberling said the officers shot Morales multiple times after he refused to show his hands and lunged at them.
According to police, Morales was armed with wooden sticks.
"He was able to almost kill an officer with some eyeglasses," Eberling said, "He was certainly skilled with using pointed objects as weapons."
Sgt. Eberling also said Morales was not wearing handcuffs when he was found. Those handcuffs, he said, are still missing.
Police also said Morales was wearing pants, and it is not clear if he got those from the burglary on Lake Ridge Drive. Sgt. Eberling said he was not aware of any other burglaries in the area.
Police said their investigation is far from over and will now focus on where Morales was between the time of his disappearance and his death. Sgt. Eberling emphasized that police did not believe anyone was helping Morales elude police.
Update 9am
Statement below from Grapevine Police. We are awaiting an update later this morning:
At about 10:35 PM on Friday February 15, the Grapevine Police Department received a report of a home burglary in the 2100 block of Forest Hills Rd. Officers at the scene learned that men's clothing and jewelry were missing from the home. Members of the Fugitive Task Force responded to search the surrounding area. With the assistance of a Fort Worth Police Department Helicopter, Morales was spotted in a wooded area not far from the home that had been broken into. Members of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force, Miami-Dade Police Department and Grapevine Police Department saturated the wooded area. Morales was located and was shot while trying to apprehend him. This matter is still under investigation.
Original Post
Grapevine police say Miami escapee Alberto Morales was shot and killed during a confrontation with officers near the west shore of Grapevine Lake early Saturday morning. It brought to a deadly end an exhaustive four day manhunt for the state's most wanted fugitive.
Police say they tracked Morales to a brushy area along the lakeshore near Lake Ridge Drive after receiving a report of a home burglary in the area Friday night. It is not clear who tipped police, but the caller reported several missing items from the home, including men's clothing and jewelry. Grapevine police called in assistance from the US Marshals Service and the Fort Worth Police helicopter. It is unclear if Morales was armed or whether he was still wearing the handcuffs that were chained to his waist prior to his escape.
Morales had been on the run since Monday night, when police say he stabbed a Miami-Dade police detective repeatedly in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart on State Highway 114 with the sharpened point of a pair of broken eyeglasses. The detective, Jaime Pardinas, is recovering at Parkland Hospital from wounds to the neck and back.
Surveillance video showed Morales running away after the attack in shorts, sneakers and a hoodie sweatshirt. Police launched an extensive search by air and ground, but were growing increasingly concerned after four days with no confirmed sightings.
Detective Pardinas and his partner had been transferring Morales by airplane from Miami to Nevada to serve prison time for a sexual assault conviction. Police say Morales became so disruptive on the flight, he was kicked off in Houston. The detectives transferred him to a rental car and were driving through North Texas to rendezvous with another detective.

Robber steals rings off hand of Sunnyvale woman, 83
Henry K. Lee
Updated 6:31 pm, Sunday, May 4, 2014
|Larger | Smaller

|Email This
Dorothy Brunauer, 83, said she could only think of one thing as an armed man plundered the Sunnyvale home where she lives with her 91-year-old husband: "We might die here."
But Brunauer and her husband, Bernard Levine, survived their ordeal, she said, because they did everything he asked, including turning over her wedding and engagement rings.
"He took everything on my hands," Brunauer said.
Levine also parted with the watch he received as a retirement gift from Hewlett-Packard, where he worked for decades as an electrical engineer. "My husband was very upset about that," Brunauer said.
But Brunauer, a retired Santa Clara city librarian, said she was grateful that they had escaped with their lives.
"It was terrifying," Brunauer said Sunday. "I was going to do everything he wanted, because I could see he was so agitated that it would take nothing from him to shoot us."
Their ordeal began about 3 p.m. Saturday when the man walked into their home on the 1000 block of Syracuse Drive through a sliding glass door the couple thought was secure, Brunauer said.
She said she heard the neighbor's dog barking, followed by a loud thump from the master bedroom and then her husband talking to someone. She went into the room and saw her husband pushed up against the wall.
The intruder was the same man she had found sitting on a patio chair outside their home about 6 p.m. Friday, Brunauer said.
"He wasn't rational. I'm wondering what his mental condition is," she said. "He was sprawled on the chair with his arms folded, and he was looking at me as if he knew me and he'd been waiting for me."
She said she thought he was asking for a job as a gardener because he pointed to her yard. "I don't know if he was talking gibberish or if it was Spanish," she said.
After breaking in Saturday, the man, who had a gun, grabbed Brunauer by the shoulder and demanded the couple's valuables. He refused to let them out of his sight until he was done, then left through the same sliding glass door, she said.
No arrest has been made. The robber was described as Latino, 35 to 40 years old, 5 feet 7 inches tall, with an average build and a full beard that was trimmed. He was wearing a green T-shirt, possibly a dark-colored jacket and dark pants.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Sunnyvale Department of Public Safety at (408) 730-7100.

CARDIFF -- A second-string Wales side gave Martyn Williams a win to mark his 100th and last test cap as it sputtered past the Barbarians 30-21 in Millennium Stadium on Saturday.
Another Wales great, winger Shane Williams, wound up his playing career in the Baa-baas. Shane Williams ended his 87-cap career for Wales in style last December, but a crowd of 57,000 turned up to give the pair of greats an emotional farewell to rugby.
Wales blasted off to 13-0, including an impressive try on debut for winger Harry Robinson, but the Baa-baas overhauled them by halftime to lead 14-13. The makeshift club side led 21-16 after a third converted try, but Wales scored two late tries to remain unbeaten this year. Center James Hook ended up with 20 points.
Baa-baas flyhalf Stephen Donald nearly matched him, with two tries and conversions of all three.
Wales sent most of its test regulars to Australia in an advance party of 16, and caretaker coach Rob Howley will finalize the other 18 on Sunday. Debuts were given to Robinson, prop Rhodri Jones and fullback Liam Williams, but there was little to gather from a disjointed performance a week before the start of the three-test series with the Wallabies.
"It wasn't pretty, there was a lot of turnover ball, but there's a lot we can work on in Australia," Howley said.
"We're looking forward to it, it will be a momentous occasion next Saturday and we'll be going out there with every effort."
Robinson made the biggest impression early when he used turnover ball to sprint 60 metres to score.
Hook's second penalty made it 13-0 and Wales was rolling.
But the Baa-baas' confidence surged when they ran in Donald. Then, while Wales prop Rhys Gill was sin-binned, sustained pressure finally told for the Barbarians with a try for scrumhalf Richie Rees just before the break.
Martyn Williams joined the fray six minutes into the new half to a standing ovation, becoming Wales' third centurion after Gareth Thomas and Stephen Jones. Hook's third penalty soon after regained the lead but Donald's second converted try put the Baa-baas back in front entering the final quarter.
Just when the Barbarians looked like beating Ireland and Wales in the space of five days, Hook set up and finished Wales' second try and converted it for 23-21 in the 72nd. Brew's late intercept try ensured victory.
Wales 30 (Harry Robinson, James Hook, Aled Brew tries; Hook 3 conversions, 3 penalties), Barbarians 21 (Stephen Donald 2, Richie Rees tries; Donald 3 conversions). HT: 13-14.

Lindale police are calling the death of a man on Thursday evening a "total accident."
Around 7:45 on Thursday night, police say a man was crossing the street in the 3400 block of Highway 69, when he was hit by an SUV headed toward Lindale.
The man, who has not yet been identified, died at the scene.
"They hit in front of The Hampton Inn and Best Western Inn and he was laying right in front of the Taco Bell. His stuff is in a trail. He was literally knocked out of his shoes." says Felicia Sutton, a woman who witnessed the incident.
"It's hard to get back to work. This is all I can think about," says Kaila Chapman, another witness at the scene.
The driver of the car that hit him is cooperating with police in their investigation of the accident, and will not be ticketed. Police say the man was crossing the street in the dark, and the driver simply did not see him.

Comments about Softspots Star (Women's):
I was looking for a snazzy little navy pump to wear when dressed up for work. This wasn't it. These shoes are certainly sturdy and well made with quality leather, but I returned them for several reasons. The navy is almost black and I have plenty of black shoes. The left shoe was very tight and the right one was loose - doesn't usually happen to me. And they were, well, I guess I have to say conservative and frumpy, not what I was looking for. I did return them.

Publisher's Description: Seneca Review, (founded in 1970 by James Crenner and Ira Sadoff and edited from 1982 to 2006 by Deborah Tall, and now by David Weiss) is published twice yearly, spring and fall. Distributed internationally, the magazine's emphasis is poetry, and the editors have a special interest in translations of contemporary poetry from around the world. Publisher of numerous laureates and award-winning poets, including Stephen Kuusisto, Donald Platt, Robert Hill Long, Rita Dove, Jorie Graham, Seamus Heaney, Yusef Komunyakaa, Charles Simic, Wislawa Szymborska, and W.S. Merwin, Seneca Review also consistently publishes emerging writers and is especially open to new, innovative poetry. In 1997, we began publishing the "lyric essay," creative nonfiction that borders on poetry, under the associate editorship of John D'Agata. In that genre, we have featured work by Anne Carson, Bernard Cooper, Fanny Howe, Wayne Koestenbaum, Honor Moore, Thalia Field, David Shields, Joe Wenderoth, Terry Tempest Williams, and many others.
Past special features have included Irish women's poetry and Irish prison poetry; Israeli women's poetry; Polish, Catalan, and Albanian poetry; and an issue of essays devoted to Hayden Carruth; a special issue on the lyric essay, and an upcoming special issue on "The Lyric Body."
Library Journal praises Seneca Review for "a thoughtful, considered view that one rarely finds anywhere else." Poems from Seneca Review are honored regularly with inclusion in The Best American Poetry and Pushcart Prize anthologies.
Recent issues:
In 1977, Seneca Review made room for a cross-fertilization of poetry and nonfiction it called "the lyric essay." With this special issue of SR (Fall 2013/Spring 2014), we are making room for a different chimera we're calling Beyond Category—work that crosses bigger lines of genre and form. Not just between poetry and essays but between writing and visual art, between analog and digital. These hybrids and outliers will be a regular part of future issues.
This issue [Spring 2013] features work by Erik Anderson, Barret Baumgart, Sandra Beasley, Karen Brennan, Steve Coughlin, Daniel Donaghy, April Freely, Piotr Gwiazda, Jessica Rae Hahn, Sonja Livingston, Liz Howort, Joanne Jacobson, Philip Kobylarz, Len Krisak, David LeGault, Christine O'Brien, Dustin Parsons, Rainer Maria Rilke, Aylen Rounds, Sandra Simonds, Catherine Taylor, Erica Trabold, and G.

If you tell a lie and it becomes the truth, does it matter that you once lied?
In the way that some people questions whether or not the ends justify the means, I'm wondering if you tell a lie and it becomes the truth, does it matter that you once lied?
Closing Statement from Tabor Williams
Thanks for all the participation and discussion everyone!

Nov 18 2012: Two of the greatest scientific revolutions in the 20th Century started out with lies. General relativity went from an obscure concept to the prevailing paradigm as the result of the lies told to the world by Arthur Eddington, an astronomer who fabricated data from Principe in Africa and from Sobral, Brazil in 1919 just to prove Einstein right. Now we are told that "better data" confirms the theory so the "truth" started out with a lie.
In quantum mechanics the fraudulent experimental physcist, Emil Rupp, provided Einstein and others with lies that took a decade to unmask. Now quantum mechanics is generally regarded as one of the most well documented, predictive models every discovered---but, it started out with lies.
Nov 22 2012: I've googled a bit :
" Dr Rupp had been ill since 1932 with emotional weakness( Psychastenia ) it was a matter of intrusion of dreamlike states into the area of his scientific activity."
Interesting ... What about his other scientific experiments , did any of those eventually prove to be not that ' fake ' ?
Maybe it was not a lie or was it ?
Thank you for bringing it here !
Nov 23 2012: The eclipse data confirming general relativity are dicey because the amount of deflection or curving of space is so small that there are both systematic and random errors that exceed the level of precision necessary to distinguish between the Newtonian, Einstein and Carezani deflection. Think of it this way---it is on a par with attempting to determine the width of a human thumb from 3 miles away with a primitive telescope and hostile environmental conditions.
In the case of Eddington, Charles Lane Poor, Professor Emeritus in celestial mechanics from Columbia University, indicated that Eddington had thrown out over 85% of the data from Sobral, Brazil to get the numbers he wanted i.e. he threw out all the data differing from general relativity and kept only the data consistent with it!
What is sad is that Sir Stephen Hawking in his book: "A Brief History ot Time From the Big Bang to Black Holes" said on page 32 that the data "was shear luck...". Later in his homage to Einstein in Time's "Person of the Century" issue, Hawking stated that the eclipse data, "Confirmed in spectacular fashion..." general relativity. When I tried to contact Hawking through his press secretary to clarify his two conflicting statements, he never responded.
I knew that Rupp was mentally not all there but your research is an interesting side light. Thanks!

UTEP will send fourteen individuals and two relay squads to Eugene, Ore., next week for the 2011 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships West Preliminary Round hosted by the University of Oregon on May 26-28.
Historic Hayward Field will be one of two sites hosting the first rounds of the NCAA Championships leading up to the final rounds set for June 8-11 in Des Moines, Iowa.
A total of 10 men will make the trip to compete in 11 events including the two relays, while five women were accepted into a total of six individual events.
Leading the men's team is two-time All-American Dimitrios Fylladitakis with the highest regional ranking in the hammer going into the preliminary round. Fylladitakis ranks fifth with a mark of 67.97m achieved on March 28 in the Miners' season-opening meet. The senior claimed the Conference USA outdoor title, the third of his career, last weekend in Houston.
Highlighting the women's team are All-Americans Risper Kimaiyo and Endurance Abinuwa. Abinuwa, who most recently garnered All-America status in the 400m at the indoor national meet, will be vying for a spot in the 200- and 400-meter dash races.
Four-time All-American Kimaiyo will look to improve last year's seventh-place finish in the women's 5,000-meter run with a time of 16:06.26. The Iten, Kenya, native set a new school record and personal best this year clocking in a time of 15:48.14 at the Payton Jordan Invitational.
The men's 4x100m and 4x400m relays made the top-12 lists that qualified for the preliminary round that advances the top 24 times in each region. The 1,600m relay, made up of Suji Adeniyan, Anderson Mutegi, Leon Dillihunt and Curtis Kock, goes into next week's competition ranked 11th in the west with a time of 3:07.80.
Anthony Wright, making his debut at a national meet, will be anchoring the 4x100m squad with Adeniyan, Mutegi, Dillihunt. The foursome are ranked 12th in the west preliminary pool with a time of 39.76.
Also making their debut at the prenational meet are freshmen Richard Olsson and Dillihunt. Olsson holds the 13th best mark, 69.26m, in the men's javelin in the west. Dillihunt, the 2011 Conference USA Championships Freshman of the Meet, qualified individually in the men's 400-meter dash with a season-best time of 47.25. Wright will compete individually in the men's 100-meter dash qualifying with a time of 10.46.
Also competing in the 400m preliminary round are Mutegi and Kock. Mutegi's time of 45.95 ranks fourteenth in the group of 48 competitors, while Kock's time of 46.79 ranks 26th.
Four Miners in addition to Kimaiyo posted national qualifying times in distance events. Senior Robert Menjo will take the track in the 3,000m steeplechase while Elkana Rotich and Justice Chirchir will compete in the men's 1,500-meter race.
Chirchir finished the 2010 outdoor season finishing 28th at last year's first preliminary with a time of 3:46.88; he goes into this year's nationals with a season-best time of 3:45.35. Rotich is ranked 18th with a time of 3:44.36.
Kathya Garcia goes back to nationals for a second consecutive year, this time in the women's 10,000 meters. Garcia competed in the 5,000-meter at the 2010 NCAA West Preliminary but did not advance to the final round. The junior ranks fourth in the 10,000m with a personal best time of 33:18.61.
Senior Terran Alexander will also be returning to the prenational meet in the women's hammer throw. Alexander ranks 10th in the field of 48 with a throw of 60.88m.
Joining Alexander on the throwing events is junior Laura Macauley in the javelin. Macauley's season-best throw of 48.47m ranks 19th in the west regional.
The New Mexico State women's track and field team earned five invites to the NCAA West Prelims in Eugene, Ore., to be held at the end of May.
Sisters Courtney and Camille Schultz will represent the Aggies in the 10,000m, while junior Jndia Cleveland will compete in the long jump and 400m hurdles.
Other Aggies invited were sophomore LaSasha Aldredge for the 400m-dash and senior Kelsey Brennan for the javelin throw.
The Schultz sisters placed first and second in the 10,000m at the WAC Championships with Camille taking first in a time of 36:53.48 and Courtney finishing closely behind in a time of 36:53.75.
Cleveland placed second at the WAC Championships in the 400m hurdles with a time of 59.76 and was selected in the long jump for her overall body of work during the season.
Aldredge finished third at the WAC in the 400m-dash in a time of 55.44 to earn a spot, while NM State dual athlete Kelsey Brennan, who also stars on the volleyball team, won the javelin at the WAC Championships with a throw of 46.15m (151-05).
The NCAA West Prelims begin Thursday, May 26 and end Saturday, May 28. The action will be held all day during the course of the event.

Origins News Roundup for September 3, 2014
This week's news features volcanoes, skeletons, and stars, as well as a thought-provoking new book from InterVarsity press.
Scientific Passions
All of science's discoveries are undergirded by beliefs about the true, good, and beautiful, which makes it all the more tragic when scientists claim to have risen above the search for these things.
Series: Excerpts from "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution" (13 entries)
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
Who's Afraid of Science?
Learning about science has taught me humility about my Bible reading and it has pushed me to think again, to read again, to ask again, and to wonder all over again what the Bible was saying when it was written and how the Bible was heard to its original hearers (so far as the evidence permits us to know such things).

Origins News Roundup for July 9, 2014
This week in origins news is a rousing medley of articles about science and faith, from multiple angles. Some classics on science, religion, and the classroom along with some probing into where atheists come from, new resources from John Polkinghorne, and an off-the-beaten-path blog post.
Religion, Science, and Society
Conflicts occur when people argue one worldview against another. They may be arguing Atheism versus Monotheism, then pull out science as a weapon saying, "science proves I'm right because of this or that..." In my view, science is rather more limited than this. Science has a lot of interesting resonances with the big questions, and can inform them, but I don't believe it can answer them.
Creation Unfolding: Reading Genesis in a Historical Setting
For my part, the historical setting of the text plays an important role in how I read. It's not a problem in my view to see the authors of Genesis embedded in their times, writing in the scientific/mythological terms they knew, even if those terms are now obsolete.
Video repost: Chris Tilling on Biblical Genre and Relational Truths
"There are clues in a text as to how the text should be written, so with Genesis, the rhythmic nature of Genesis 1 and 2, the almost poetic, and hymnic, function that it would have played in the liturgy of the earliest Jewish lives… it seems to me that there are clues here that it should be read in a theological way."
Interview with Ronald Osborn
We must press beyond the various creation narratives in the Hebrew Bible, including the final chapters of Job, to the picture of God revealed in the New Testament—the Creator who does not rationally explain away the scandal of suffering but who instead enters into it.
A Review of "Death Before the Fall: Biblical Literalism and the Problem of Animal Suffering" by Ronald E. Osborn
The confident assertion that the Bible trumps science stems from a misunderstanding of the purpose of the scriptures, and a misapplication of the Bible to answer questions that can only be answered by the application of science.

DETROIT (WKZO) -- There are many changes in store for Tigers fans heading to Comerica Park. New security measures mandated by Major League Baseball will slow down the process of entering the stadium.
Fans will be asked to empty their pockets before being scanned by metal detectors at all public entrances to the park. There are also new restrictions on the size of bags that can be carried into the stadium.
Due to the new measures, Tigers officials are opening the gates two hours early.

Appeared Not to Be Breathing
On June 1, 2012 while working a fire safety standby position, Captain Nicholas Holinko was suddenly alerted to a medical emergency at the Carnival.
While checking his basic medical equipment at the beginning of his shift, a mother carrying her limp 10 month old girl thrust the child into Captain Holinko's arms.
Captain Holinko performed a brief primary assessment and determined that the child was not breathing and did not have a patent airway. He immediately began to perform black blows on the child and a penny was coughed up and out of the airway by the child.
Following the Penny
After the removal of the foreign body, he began to stimulate the child to produce crying and after several moments the child began to act normally.
The child was evaluated by Paramedics and transport to a hospital was refused by the child's mother.
If it had not been for Captain Holinko's quick reactions, the result would have been tragic.

Colon Polyps (cont.)

Are all colon cancers associated with polyps?
No, although most colon cancers arise from polyps, some do not. Some arise within the wall of the colon. These cancers may be flat or even depressed (excavated). They are more difficult to identify and treat, and they are more likely to spread into the wall of the colon and nearby lymph nodes than cancers originating in polyps. This is particularly true of serrated adenomatous polyps which usually are flat rather than polypoid in appearance.
There also is a familial, genetic syndrome called hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC, Lynch syndrome) in which colon cancers occur with very high incidence (80% or more of patients). There are few or no polyps to identify in these patients. Moreover, the cancers occur at a younger age, often prior to the time screening for colon cancer is recommended to begin, and the syndrome is not recognized until a family member develops cancer usually at a young age. HNPCC is suspected because other family members also have colon cancer and certain criteria are met (Amsterdam or Bethesda criteria), or the cancer shows a particular pattern under the microscope with special stains. If HNPCC is suspected, genetic testing on the cancer can be done to identify the hereditary mutation, and other family members can be tested for the same mutation. If present, the family members can begin screening colonoscopies. HNPCC may be associated with cancers in tissues outside the colon as well. Fortunately, HNPCC is responsible for only a few percent of all colon cancers.
Can colon polyps be prevented?
Because of concern regarding the transition of polyps to cancer, attempts have been made to determine if treatments with theoretical potential actually prevent polyps. The problem with most studies is that they are retrospective, observational studies which are not sufficient as proof. The long period of time (many years) that it takes for polyps to form makes long term studies mandatory, but such studies have been difficult to do except in the case of familial, genetic polyposis syndromes, and, because of the differences in their causes, it is not clear if what applies to them applies to the more common sporadic adenomas.
Several associations have been explored for antioxidants including selenium, beta carotene, and vitamins A, C, and E. Most of the studies that have been done do not support a role for these agents in preventing polyps or in preventing colon cancer. A limited amount of support is available for the use of selenium to prevent polyps, but selenium is not recommended for use outside of experimental trials.
Supplemental dietary calcium has been demonstrated in one study to prevent the formation of polyps. The benefit was seen with supplementation of 1200 mg of calcium. There is some concern about using calcium since higher dietary and supplemental levels are associated with an increase in vascular disease. The intake of calcium that was studied was higher than the recommended intake of calcium, 800 mg.
The best support for a treatment to prevent polyps is with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), a class of drugs that includes aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil), celecoxib (Celebrex), and many others. Aspirin has been shown in several studies to reduce the formation of polyps by 30% to 50%. The effect is likely to occur with higher doses of aspirin (more than the 81-325 mg that is recommended for cardiovascular disease prevention), and there is concern about aspirin's side effect of gastrointestinal bleeding at these doses.
Celecoxib (Celebrex), a "COX-2 selective NSAID" has been shown to reduce colon polyps 30% to 50% as well, but there is a lingering concern about the possible cardiovascular side effects that may be seen with most NSAIDs (though the data supporting this side effect is conflicting). It may be used in patients genetic polyposis syndromes who choose not to have their colons removed. Celecoxib might be considered in patients with a low risk for cardiovascular disease who develop adenomatous polyps frequently.
Sulindac (Clinoril), a "non-selective NSAID" has been shown to prevent polyps in patients with sporadic adenoma as well as the genetic syndromes. As with celecoxib, there is concern about cardiovascular side effects.
Given the information that is available, it is not recommended that patients at average risk for the formation of additional polyps be treated for prevention because of concern that the risks of treatment, primarily intestinal bleeding and cardiovascular disease, may outweigh the benefit of polyp prevention. It may be reasonable to treat patients who are at higher than average risk for polyps in whom the benefit may outweigh the risks. Such patients might include those with frequent polyp formation, particularly those who have demonstrated cancerous changes in the polyps, or patients who already have had colon cancer. Studies in these types of patients are eagerly awaited.

"This card came out so sweet. I loved the fonts and paper quality was great. The best card I've made so far on Shutterfly sites. I have to say I like Tiny Prints the best (vs Shutterfly)! Delivery was fast. I didn't even put a rush on it. I did ask for a designer review which is free. Thanks, Tiny Prints!"
"I already knew I had a beautiful photo to use, so I was just hoping that the quality of the print would be just as good...and it was!! I was extremely happy with the quality of the print, the thickness of the card and the size of the card. I was also grateful for the tip on using a regular size envelope to save on postage. Overall I am extremely happy with my prints."
"Cardstock, colors, envelope, design, picture quality all excellent. It was obviously reviewed prior to being printed to make sure it looked great. Exceeded our expectations! Would highly recommend."
"Very happy with how my sons birth announcement came out! The template made it so easy. I just added the info and picture."
"The cards were absolutely adorable and printed on a high quality stock. Everyone loved the cards and asked where did I get them....trust me this card is well worth the investment."
