Rapper Snoop Dogg has turned interior designer to create a pop-up house for fans at the South by Southwest festival in Texas.
The Gin and Juice hitmaker teamed up with Home & Garden Television's Emily Henderson to design a space featuring marijuana leaf-patterned wallpaper and a blue velvet couch as well as many other unique decorations, which reflects his style.
He says, "The pop-up home was something I wanted to do because I felt like it was missing my flavor. I've seen the people who have done it in the past and I just wanted to add my flavor and bring a home out here that represented me and what I stood for.
"So many people love Snoop Dogg and want to be next to him..., so why not create a home that's in my vision? That you can come hang out and chill with me in."
Snoop Dogg is among many big names checking out the talent at this year's (14) South by Southwest festivities in Austin.

Artist was able to mature during his 30 years at Midland College
"In August of 1979, I came down to Midland in a 1977 Nova and the smallest U-Haul trailer I could rent," said artist Warren Taylor, whose works are hanging in the McCormick Gallery at Midland College. "I wasn't scared, not for a moment. I just knew it would be a grand adventure, and it has been."
And now, after more than 30 years of teaching art at MC, the time has come to move on.
"I owe a lot to the college, my students, my colleagues and the administrators," said Taylor, who retires at the end of this semester. "It will be a big change to have control over my time. What I have come to dislike these past few years is how chopped up my time has been. Add to that just the growing demands of contemporary life, and time for art has been more and more meager."
After decades of dividing his time between painting and teaching, Taylor isn't certain how much of either path he will be pursuing in the future. He might teach privately, Taylor said.
"As to studio work away from the demands of the college classroom, I am not quite sure, but I don't worry about it. ... If the mind and all important eyesight stay intact and the ideas keep flowing, I doubt I will stop painting."
Art has played a role in Taylor's life since childhood.
"I knew something was there inside me, visually speaking, as early as the second grade in elementary school," Taylor said. "If we finished our work, we could go to a back corner of the room and paint with tempera paint. I loved it, and it fit my hand like a glove. It felt very comfortable to me."
His desire to spend his life as an artist came "full force in graduate school," said Taylor. "That's when I could really focus on my art for the first time. In undergraduate school I was always worried about the exam in everything from German to Comparative Government.
"But in graduate school my courses were studio art and art history. Also I had a chance to interact with other young artists. It was a very happy time for me. I landed a good position as an art professor here at Midland College, and that's when I was able to mature."
Taylor has participated in many by-invitation art exhibitions and has been the recipient of a number of one-man shows. His special awards include, among others, receiving the top award in Arches Paper Competition, "My Country in 2000"; being one of four American artists selected for the Winsor-Newton Co. Sponsor Exhibition in St. James Palace London & the Gallery of United Nations in New York City; having four works purchased for the permanent collection, Watercolor USA; and being named in 1999 Piper Distinguished Professor by Piper Foundation, San Antonio.
In his artist's statement for the catalogue of his work, Taylor said, "For certain, I want the work to stand on its own without my written comments."
He described the technique he has used in recent years.
"Several years ago I began doing elaborate under paintings in my watercolors and using overlays of a predominant color, many times cool colors. These under paints were then sprayed with a fixative thus allowing glazing without the colors bleeding or lifting up. The result was that I could work in layers and push elements of the negative space deep down into the composition.
"Some of these elements become almost obscure in the finished work. The intention is for the viewer to examine the work, that which is on top and that which goes so deep as to be barely visible. To me, this reflects our response to time, to the past and to present realities. In a way, I think these watercolor paintings examine passage of time — use of Baroque subjects — and current popular themes — comics."
In the same catalogue, artist Katherine Chang Liu said of Taylor's work, "When standing in front of Warren's paintings, one feels as if one is arriving at a rich vista, a vista filled with the appreciation and understanding of music, art, religion and any other combination of Western cultural histories.
"It is with that surrounding that we are led to a single rose, an aria, or a poem. But I believe mostly we go away from the viewing with an appreciation that we were given the opportunity to share a moment of beauty."

Wednesday, March 26
PLAN A: Reverend Horton Heat, Nekromantix, Deke Dickerson @ The Casbah. Psychobilly legends Reverend Horton Heat sold out their first show at The Casbah so quickly that they ended up booking two more in a row. Why is the Reverend still packing 'em in after all these years? I've got one word for you: showmanship. BACKUP PLAN: Ghost Come Back, Jacob Elliot, Hawke Auburn @ Tin Can Ale House.
Thursday, March 27
PLAN A: Art of Élan presents "Crossfire" with Swarmius @ Glashaus. Chamber group Art of Élan is putting on a special performance with "classical-punk" outfit Swarmius that blends contemporary classical sounds with pop and hip-hop in a collision of styles—hence the "Crossfire." If you're looking for something a bit more sophisticated, but still gritty and underground, this is your best bet. PLAN B: Tactical Ffever, Devfits, The Hague @ The Bancroft. But maybe it's just the gritty and underground part you're looking for, in which case you should check out noise rockers Tactical Ffever, featuring members of Street of Little Girls and Ilya. BACKUP PLAN: Northern Tigers, Jaded Juice Riders, Electric Healing Sound @ Tin Can Ale House.
Friday, March 28
PLAN A: Octo Octa, Magic Touch and Afterhours, DJ Bob Dazzla @ The Hideout. This show is labeled "100% Silk Night" because of its lineup of acts from the Los Angeles-based electronic label. Headliner Octo Octa, in particular, is one to hear, with a hypnotic sound that layers ethereal synths over deep house beats. PLAN B: Ruines ov Abaddon, Eukaryst, Old Man Wizard, Fadrait @ The Merrow. Attention: San Diego metal fans. Support your local headbangers and be treated to a whole smorgasbord of heavy flavors at The Merrow, including Ruines ov Abaddon's black metal, Eukaryst's death metal and Old Man Wizard's stoner / doom sounds. Only a couple days left to safety pin the Darkthrone patch on your denim vest! BACKUP PLAN: Too $hort @ Porter's Pub.
Saturday, March 29
PLAN A: San Diego Experimental Guitar Show w/ Glen Galloway, Vabianna Santos, Clint McCallum @ Soda Bar. The Experimental Guitar Show is a unique event that's best experienced without expectations and with an open mind. It's essentially performance art: Musicians approach the guitar in a variety of unconventional ways, whether building their own instruments, creating installation pieces or just abusing an acoustic. It'll be unlike any other show you'll see all year. PLAN B: Magical Mistakes, Seiho, And Vice Versa, Mystery Cave, HGHWND, Nick Leng, Amanda Schoepflin and DJ Mateo Silva @ The Hideout. Magical Mistakes is the project of Erik Luebs, a producer who blends post-rock atmosphere with Flying Lotus-style beats. Duck in and vibe out to some chill sonic head-trips. BACKUP PLAN: Space Chainsaw, Craterface @ The Bancroft.
Sunday, March 30
PLAN A: Saintseneca, The Blank Tapes, Vikesh Kapoor @ The Casbah. Ohio indie-folk outfit Saintseneca go above and beyond whatever connotations you think of when you read the words "indie folk." They're more Neutral Milk Hotel than tepid Americana or busker rock, with just the right balance of atmosphere and songwriting chops.
Monday, March 31
PLAN A: The Appleseed Cast, Idyll Wild, Buddy Banter @ The Casbah. Check here for Ben Salmon's feature on The Appleseed Cast, a Kansas band that disappeared for seven years but was recently revived by frontman Chris Crisci with some great new atmospheric indie-rock sounds. PLAN B: William Tyler, New Madrid, Mark Dzula @ Soda Bar. William Tyler is probably best known for being a member of ever-evolving Nashville alt-country outfit Lambchop, but he's slowly building an impressive catalog of American-primitivism-style guitar records, like last year's incredible Impossible Truth . Just stunning.
Tuesday, April 1
PLAN A: Brad Mehldau Trio @ La Jolla Athenaeum. Pianist Brad Mehldau is one of the biggest names in contemporary jazz. You've most likely heard one of his Radiohead covers, but, in any case, his trio puts a modern twist on classic post-bop sounds, be it through innovative covers or original compositions. PLAN B: Brain Scraper, Pig Life, Fermentor @ Tower Bar. I mean, why wouldn't you want to see a band called Brain Scraper? Especially one with a song called "Lobotomizer"? I don't know about you, but I'm sold. (They're a hardcore / crust band, if that helps.) BACKUP PLAN: Bruin, Bangladesh, Emerald Rats @ Soda Bar.

Object.ReferenceEquals Method (Object, Object)
The .NET API Reference documentation has a new home. Visit the .NET API Browser on docs.microsoft.com to see the new experience.
Determines whether the specified Object instances are the same instance.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
- objA
The first object to compare.
- objB
The second object to compare.
Return ValueType: System.Boolean
true if objA is the same instance as objB or if both are null; otherwise, false.
Unlike the Equals method and the equality operator, the ReferenceEquals method cannot be overridden. Because of this, if you want to test two object references for equality and you are unsure about the implementation of the Equals method, you can call the ReferenceEquals method.
However, the return value of the ReferenceEquals method may appear to be anomalous in these two scenarios:
When comparing value types. If objA and objB are value types, they are boxed before they are passed to the ReferenceEquals method. This means that if both objA and objB represent the same instance of a value type, the ReferenceEquals method nevertheless returns false, as the following example shows.
using System; public class Example { public static void Main() { int int1 = 3; Console.WriteLine(Object.ReferenceEquals(int1, int1)); Console.WriteLine(int1.GetType().IsValueType); } } // The example displays the following output: // False // True
For information on boxing value types, see Boxing and Unboxing (C# Programming Guide).
When comparing strings. If objA and objB are strings, the ReferenceEquals method returns true if the string is interned. It does not perform a test for value equality. In the following example, s1 and s2 are equal because they are two instances of a single interned string. However, s3 and s4 are not equal, because although they are have identical string values, that string is not interned.
using System; public class Example { public static void Main() { String s1 = "String1"; String s2 = "String1"; Console.WriteLine("s1 = s2: {0}", Object.ReferenceEquals(s1, s2)); Console.WriteLine("{0} interned: {1}", s1, String.IsNullOrEmpty(String.IsInterned(s1)) ? "No" : "Yes"); String suffix = "A"; String s3 = "String" + suffix; String s4 = "String" + suffix; Console.WriteLine("s3 = s4: {0}", Object.ReferenceEquals(s3, s4)); Console.WriteLine("{0} interned: {1}", s3, String.IsNullOrEmpty(String.IsInterned(s3)) ? "No" : "Yes"); } } // The example displays the following output: // s1 = s2: True // String1 interned: Yes // s3 = s4: False // StringA interned: No
For more information about string interning, see String.IsInterned.
The following example uses ReferenceEquals to determine if two objects are the same instance.
using System; class MyClass { static void Main() { object o = null; object p = null; object q = new Object(); Console.WriteLine(Object.ReferenceEquals(o, p)); p = q; Console.WriteLine(Object.ReferenceEquals(p, q)); Console.WriteLine(Object.ReferenceEquals(o, p)); } } /* This code produces the following output. True True False */

John Nash, mathematician who inspired Russell Crowe movie, A Beautiful Mind, has died
John Nash, considered to be one of the greatest mathematicians and who inspired the book and movie "A Beautiful Mind" starring Russell Crowe, has died.
The 86 year old Princeton University genius died along with his wife 82 year old Alicia Nash who was an MIT physics major, after the taxi they were travelling in lost control and crashed in New Jersey.
Nash was famous for his work in game theory along with his personal struggle with paranoid schizophrenia.
Princeton University President Christopher L. Eisgruber said, "We are stunned and saddened by news of the untimely passing of John Nash and his wife and great champion, Alicia. Both of them were very special members of the Princeton University community. John's remarkable achievements inspired generations of mathematicians, economists and scientists who were influenced by his brilliant, groundbreaking work in game theory, and the story of his life with Alicia moved millions of readers and moviegoers who marveled at their courage in the face of daunting challenges."
"A Beautiful Mind" director, Ron Howard tweeted, "RIP Brilliant #NobelPrize winning John Nash & and his remarkable wife Alicia. It was an honor telling part of their story #ABeautifulMind"

… To be using my Copics again! Smiles.
Hello everyone how are you all?
The weather here has turned pretty naff so it's pretty perfect for staying home and picking up my Copics again.
To kick start my journey into Copics after all of this time (months and months and months.. ) I chose one of my all time favourite images from The Stamping Chef.
She is called Ella Lovely and you can find her right here.
(You would not believe how frightened I felt putting pen to paper again after all of this time.. I actually broke out into a cold sweat.. ho hum!)
I used these shades for the Dress & Bow…
These for the Hair & Eyes…
These for the Skin Tones…
And these for the Shadow & Grounding.
The "With Love" sentiment is FREE from Ginger's House.
The image is printed onto my Neenah Classic Crest card stock.
The gold matt & layer card is my Cor-Dinations card stock.
And my base card is a 7" square cut to size from my 14 x 14 Centura Pearlescent cardstock.
And those lovely gems are from my craft shelf. Smiles.
The challenges I would very proudly like to enter into are:-
The Stamping Chef – Anything Goes.
Kit And Clowder Challenges – Anything Goes. *It's these fabulous ladies who have inspired me to pick up my Copics again.. Love you all.xx*
Glitter N Sparkle – Anything With A "B" (I chose Bow & Bling!)
Sentimental Sundays – Bling It Up.

Daniel Best's pozible campaign for his book on Australian publisher Newton Comics book is in it's last twenty hours. Daniel has met his target but I'm sure would welcome any more contributions to support the production costs of the book. I asked Daniel a few questions via email about his background in comics and his forthcoming book.
Please consider supporting Newton Comics - The Rise & Fall pozible campaign here.
What were the first comics you read?
The first comics that I can remember reading was the Death of Gwen Stacey issues of The Amazing Spider-Man, way back when they were released in the early 1970s. My mother taught me to read, but insisted that I read books, not that she had anything against comic books.
When did you first encounter Newton Comics?I first encountered Newton Comics when they were released in 1975/1976. They were cheaper than the American versions and usually contained far more interesting material. The posters and swap cards, along with the iron-on transfers also sold me - I'd buy them and chop them up mercilessly - swap cards in school books, posters on walls and iron-ons on shirts. But, hey, that's what you did as a kid in the 1970s. I didn't know, nor did I care, that these things would be worth anything down the track. Newtons were perfect for children - the true disposable comics.
What attracted you to researching comics history?I've always had a fascination with history in general and, more often than not, it's the stories behind the official or published stories that have interested me the most. I first became interested in learning about comic book history in the early 1980s when I discovered magazines like The Comic Journal, but my interest really picked up when I found a battered copy of All In Color For A Dime at a library book sale for ten cents. That changed my outlook on comic books and comic book history in general. From there I discovered some old Alter Egos and a few FOOMs at a second hand store and never looked back.
The same second hand store used to sell me comic books for between five and ten cents each - from 1981 to 1984. They'd get stuff in like the John Byrne X-Men, Iron Fist, old Gil Kane and John Romita Spider-Man's, Silver Age Marvels and the like for peanuts. But never any DC. Like an idiot I lost the lot.
I started to get interested in Newtons again in the early 2000s when I found a copy of The Amazing Spider-Man #1. I wanted to know what the story was behind these comics. I knew about the many Australian reprint comics, mainly the DC reprints that KG Murray did in the 1970s and 1980s, the Federal and Yaffa reprints of Marvel and the Gredown reprints of rare horror material, but these were new to me, in a way. Old, familiar comics, but new in their own way. I hopped on the internet and did a search and found...nothing.
At what point did you consider turning your research into Newton Comics into a book?
At what point did you consider turning your research into Newton Comics into a book?
Then Robert Thomas did his brilliant Newton Comics article for The Sunday Observer (which used to be owned by Maxwell Newton, the same guy who owned Newton Comics) and I was hooked. I started collecting them and writing about them on my blog and there was a great interest. From there I began to interview people who were involved with Newton Comics and, once Robert and myself sat down and compared notes, I thought, "There's a book in here." That was in 2005.
I then caught up with Kevin Patrick in Melbourne. What he doesn't know about Australian comics isn't worth knowing, but he admitted that he didn't know a lot about Newton. I mentioned the idea of a book and he replied that nobody has ever written a book about an Australian comic book company, so why not be the first? By then I was really leaning towards it. On the same weekend I was chatting to Philip Bentley, who founded Minotaur Books in Melbourne, who said, "You know, Maxwell Newton was named a spy in Parliament." That sold me. I started work on it in 2007, once I finished the Jim Mooney book, and I've been working on it ever since. Now it's ready for publication!
Those three guys, Robert, Kevin and Phil, have been brilliant helps along the way, sharing ideas, research and allowing me to bounce things off them.
Daniel's blog Oh Danny Boy has a wealth of articles on Australian and American comics.

The First Time I Saw A Planet
The only thing I remember liking when I look up above my head in the night were the stars that flicker through the pitch-dark night. I remember looking for the moon & wondering how it would leave me in awe until I forget to take out my phone to keep proof of it. Then I met my husband – a person who I though was weird enough to have an interest of owning a telescope. I always wondered what it was for; to peek into someone else's house, to spy on the neighbors, what on earth was a telescope for? Oh yes, from the sounds of it, I am a little straight about these things.
So, one night he brings it out & he says that it's such a beautiful night to have a peak at the planets, because he had spotted one. I was thinking okay here we go, weirdo. What on earth would you be able to see because as we all know the stars and the moon and the planets are so very far away from us. After much arguing about me getting up & going out to the porch or not, I finally caved & I've got to say – it was the most romantic thing we've ever done! I also heard that star gazing can help with nervousness as in www.nervousnovelist.com.
He had found a planet, which typical me, I don't remember the name of and had set the telescope to show straight at it. When I saw the planet, I was very truly mesmerized by the sight of it. Maybe it was really my lucky night, but I was able to see the planet with the ring around it. Yeah, forgot the name again. But it was beyond cool because you could actually see it, from thousands or millions of miles away! It was I was in space & I could see everything, up close & personal. The detailed physical planet, which I got to learn so much about, was right there in front of my bare eyes.
I regretted turning my husband down many times before when he asked me to look into the telescope, and now I will never forget that moment spent together – looking at something so beautiful.

Momo has had a crush on Toji for years, but has kept it a secret on account of a rumor that Toji considered dark skin and blond hair to be a turn-off. Her first time telling someone about this crush was during the course of turning down Kairi, unknowingly within earshot of Toji and Sae. Toji confessed his love to Momo, they got together, Sae used assorted Magnificent Bastardry to try to break them up and generally make Momo's life miserable, Kairi consistently proves a Spanner in the Works to Sae's schemes, and Momo starts falling for Kairi.
And it gets even more confusing from there.
Peach Girl provides examples of:
- Aesop Amnesia: Dear God, Sae is this trope. After being turned down by the guy she's claimed to love (at the time), being victimized by her former victims, and being treated as a friend by MOMO, given enough time, she goes back to her jealous, manipulative ways.
- All of the Other Reindeer: Momo is bullied by Sae for the majority of the story, though Sae lies to people about this, trying to make it seem like it's Momo who's bullying her. Also, Momo is put down by her classmates and other people for having tan skin and
bleachedred hair, because they believe this means she is a kogal.
- Alpha Bitch: Sae
- Attempted Rape: Both Momo and Sae have been victims of this.
- Attention Whore: Sae
- Bishōnen: Jigoro, Toji, Kairi, and Ryo.
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Sae is one of the greatest examples of this trope in all of anime.
- Chessmaster Sidekick: This is about as Face as Sae gets.
- Chivalrous Pervert: Kairi.
- Clingy Jealous Girl: Momo towards Toji at times. Sae is much more aggressive about this towards any guy that captures her attention, namely Toji and Ryo. Also, both Toji and Kairi could be seen as male versions of this trope in regards to Momo, and Jigoro to Sae.
- Then there's Kairi's bitchy trio of Clingy Jealous Girl's who hold nothing but pure hatred towards Momo.
- Covert Pervert: Momo, even though she violently berates Kairi for his perverted tendencies, it has been suggested that she is secretly perverted herself.
- Dark-Skinned Blonde: Momo is this in the manga.
- Dark Skinned Red Head: Momo, as a result of her dedication to the swim team. (At least, in the anime.)
- Dub Induced Plothole: A slip in the dub causes Toji to casually mention to Momo that Sae is blackmailing him with pictures, which she has never heard about til now. You can tell it's a mistake when Momo actually finds out a few episodes later and confronts Sae about it.
- Fanservice: Much more of this in the manga than in the anime.
- The Glomp: Toji to Momo sometimes, and Sae to whoever she may like at the moment.
- Green-Eyed Monster: This defines Sae.
- Gyaru Girl: Momo is often mistaken for a ganguro due to her tanned skin and bleached hair. She gets teased a lot about it, but she's on the school's swim team. Her skin is just tanned because she spends a lot of time swimming outdoors, and the chlorine and other pool chemicals bleached her hair strawberry-blonde.
- I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: At least twice each for Toji and Kairi.
- Idiot Ball: It takes Kairi essentially setting Sae up to confess everything she's ever done to Momo for Toji to finally realize how much he's been lied to. Somewhat justified in that it's mentioned that Toji is a bit on the naive side but he showed a distressing lack of sense towards his own relationship.
- Manipulative Bitch: Sae, again.
- Megaton Punch: Momo, frequently to Kairi.
- More Than Mind Control: Sae loves doing this.
- Oh, Crap!: Kairi gets one when he realizes Momo is about to hit him for having the girls start a fight with her.
- Poor Communication Kills: A lot of the relationship problems in the show could've been resolved very quickly if not for this.
- Rape Portrayed as Redemption: Played with. When Sae gets put in danger of it as revenge for her putting Momo in the same situation previously, Momo rescues her as soon as she finds out. Being rescued for a second time plays it straight, though.
- Second Love: Momo ends up with Kairi instead of her first love, Toji.
- Stalker with a Crush: Sae, repeatedly and to extremes.
- Tomboy and Girly Girl: Both Sae and Momo can be one or the other at times.
- Tsundere: Momo again, without a doubt.
- Unwitting Pawn: Toji, then Jigoro.
- Wounded Gazelle Gambit: Sae's favorite tactic; she's even the Trope Namer.
- Wrong Guy First: Sort of. More like Best Guy Last.
- Yandere:
- Sae, to a certain degree, depending on your view.
- Zettai Ryouiki: Momo wears grade A in episode 9.

Parents who dream of taking their children to Disney World but cannot afford it should look for a job within the Commerce Department so that they too could have a taxpayer funded trip to the most magical place on earth. A small department within the Commerce Department (the National Institute of Standards and Technology) used millions of taxpayer dollars to fund a conference in Disney World. The Washington Examiner reports:
"According to the information I have received, the NIST MEP most recently spent anywhere between three and five million dollars on an annual conference at a resort near Walt Disney World in Florida," Adams wrote in a letter to House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Fla., in which she requested a hearing into the matter.
So while the American Citizens are suffering due to the crushing debt, this government agency feels it is acceptable to waste millions of the taxpayers' dollars on a lavish conference in Disney World. Apparently the federal government hasn't gotten the point yet. Americans are tired of having their money wasted because elected officials feel that their money is expendable, and it is no wonder that the American people feel those in control are taking advantage of them.
Why could this NIST conference not be held near their headquarters in Maryland, but must is be all the way in Orlando Florida? It shows a blatant lack of respect and total disregard for anyone of the 53 percent of Americans that pay federal income tax. The fact that at a time of $15 trillion debt and over eight percent unemployment the federal government feels it is okay to fund what is essentially a vacation for their employees with taxpayer money, then that in and of itself should be a wakeup call that Washington D.C. needs a reality check.

It's Over Tully – Tahlia Moves Out.
Big Brother Australia makes relationships but also breaks them. For Tully it appears to have done both. On the show she hooked up with Drew which culminated in declarations of love and pashes under the doona.
Even though Tully did not rule out a reconciliation with her live in girlfriend, it appears to be all over for Tully and Tahlia. Tahlia moved out of the couple's inner-west Sydney home this morning.
It appears they are still on speaking term with Tahlia saying "It's all good between them – no dramas".
It looks like Tully gets to keep the dog and ironically Tahlia gets the television, the very thing that split them up.
Whether Tully cracks on with Drew remains to be seen. However she is apparently back tonight on Big Brother tonight. Expect NINE to use Tully bring boom ratings, it is highly unlikely she will be placed back in the house. Looks like she is on her way to the airport.

Yeah, I doubt very much she is going back into the house, unless they are doing last years ignore task again. She has been out and had access to media, so she couldn't go back in.

Mirabai Interview, 2001
Talking to the Animals
Craig Gordon is webmaster of Mirabai, Woodstock's metaphysical bookstore, and creator of Now Age Press, a media development company that produces content for the holistic and natural products industries. He interviewed Helen Weaver via email in spring, 2001 about her just-published book, The Daisy Sutra: Conversations with my Dog.
Mirabai: What's the idea and inspiration behind The Daisy Sutra?
Helen Weaver: I see life on Earth as a school. I write to celebrate my teachers, and to pass on what I learned from them. That's why I write. I can't make up stories, I just tell what happened to me. Two years ago, I thought I'd be finishing my memoir of Jack Kerouac–and then my dog died.
The summer Daisy was sixteen, I began jotting down the story of her life in my journal. I knew I was going to lose her, I had to save my memories. As her health failed, I came up against that awful decision that people with pets often have to face: Was my dog ready to die? Did she need help? Had I been keeping her alive for my own sake? Or the opposite–would I be "putting her down" because her care had become so difficult for me? What would Daisy have to say about this, if she could speak?
That's when, in desperation, I picked up the phone and called an animal communicator. And what happened then changed my life–and turned those notes in my journal into a book.
Because I had to tell everyone what I learned: that we can talk to the animals, and they can talk to us, and that they have so much to teach us about life, and death. That animals are our teachers. That's why I wrote the book.
Mirabai: What did you learn about animal communication that you can share? When I think of animal communication, I think of Doctor Dolittle. Can you shed a more realistic light on the subject?
Helen Weaver: I always thought it was possible. And I had some experiences of spontaneous communication with animals, both pets and animals in the wild, that I describe in the book. But I was unaware that it was actually being done professionally until a few years ago. I remember hearing about a woman who taught a class at Omega, the holistic learning center in Rhinebeck. Everyone who attended came with an animal companion. On the first day of class, the teacher took one of the animals, a dog, into an adjoining room and spent some time with the animal. When she came back in she said that this dog didn't like being kept in the basement at night. And the dog's person (animal communicators don't use the word "owner," they feel it perpetuates the notion that animals are things) confirmed that she had been keeping the dog in the basement at night. I thought that was pretty amazing, but not impossible, after what I'd experienced myself.
It's interesting about Doctor Dolittle, and Babe, and all the books and movies and cartoons in which animals talk to each other or to humans. I think that works of the imagination often contain an element of truth. Or they express a longing for some larger reality that might actually not be so far-fetched after all. Some of the technology of today was anticipated in the science fiction of yesterday. The uniforms of astronauts imitate those of the characters on Star Trek. Fantasies sometimes come true! And I think the movies in which animals talk express a longing that we all have, deep down, to bridge the gaps between species.
My discovery of animal communication was gradual. The first time I consciously tried to communicate with an animal was when my niece came to live with my mother and me and brought her cat. Daisy always chased the neighbor's cat, so I sat down and talked to her, and asked her to not to chase Annie's cat. When Annie arrived with Mooey, I told Daisy, "Now remember our little talk!" And against all her doggy instincts, and unlike all her previous behavior, Daisy welcomed the cat. Annie lived with us for a year, and Daisy never chased her cat.
Here in Woodstock, I told the raccoon who was waking me up every night trying to get at the food in my cabin to cease and desist. I told him I'd put any leftover food out on a stump. He never bothered me again, and the food was always gone in the morning. There were several other incidents which I talk about in the book. So I was open to the idea.
Toward the end of Daisy's life, when I was agonizing over whether it was time to call the vet and have her put to sleep, I contacted an animal communicator. They prefer not to be called "animal psychics," perhaps because there's a stigma attached to that word in some circles.
I ended up consulting three different animal communicators, both before and after Daisy died. I was pretty impressed with the accuracy of the information these three women picked up from Daisy. And I was so grateful to them for their help. Losing Daisy was devastating for me, but knowing that my dog was ready to die, and having that intimate contact with her both before and after she died, made all the difference in the world.
Animal communication no longer seems so far out to me. It is obvious that animals communicate with each other without benefit of language. It is also now clear, thanks to Jane Goodall and others, that animals are capable of communicating with humans in pretty subtle and remarkable ways. Koko the Gorilla makes up new words, and selects potential mates from available bachelor gorillas on a computer! Work of this kind takes patience, persistence, attention, and a huge amount of love. Love is the secret, love and taking the time to do it.
So I guess what I learned is that anyone can do it, that it's really part of our birthright as humans. Native Americans have been doing it for thousands of years. Children do it spontaneously. Like psychic ability in general, it's just not part of our conditioning, it's not encouraged. Those who teach animal communication say it's a matter of helping people to reclaim an ability we all have that has been forgotten, or been actively suppressed.
Mirabai: Would you say that learning to communicate with animals is similar to learning a new human-spoken language?
Helen Weaver: Good question. I'm tempted to say that they use different parts of the brain, but I'd be talking through my hat. I'm not a professional animal communicator, so my experience with it is limited. When I interviewed animal communicator Gail De Sciose for my book, I happened to mention that I'm a translator, and Gail said, "That's what I am, too." So the two activities do have something in common, but I think the learning processes are a little different.
The way to learn a new language is total immersion. You have to saturate yourself with the vocabulary, grammar, and sounds of that language until you literally dream in it.
Now, there is no special vocabulary, grammar, or sounds for communicating with animals. It's often done silently. The basis for animal communication, as I understand it, is telepathic rather than verbal, though messages may be sent and received in words. (They may also be sent in images or feelings, or all three.) But the basis is intentional, or emotional.
Unlike the communication that happens by means of computers, it's not a binary system. The code is based on unity rather than duality. The ground, the vehicle that makes it all possible, is love. Also there must be the desire to communicate, the belief (or at least the suspension of disbelief) that it is possible, the ability to clear one's mind, and a lot of patience and persistence.
Learning to communicate with animals has more in common with meditation than it does with learning a new human language. Indeed, a great many animal communicators come to this work through meditation, and call upon practices akin to meditation when they teach. Like meditation, animal communication is about discovering a part of the self that has been there all along rather than learning a new set of skills. But in either case–to begin communicating with animals, or to learn a new human language–you must be highly motivated, and have respect for the beings with whom you wish to communicate. Otherwise, why bother?

ST. LOUIS (KMOX) – A new food waste program at Lambert Airport will convert leftover food into agricultural compost for farms and gardens.
The three-month pilot program will be funded by a grant from the St. Louis-Jefferson Solid Waste Management District (SWMD), along with the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.
Four restaurants, totaling 30% of the airport's food and beverage consumption, will take part in the program. They are Beers of the World, Pasta House, Brioche Doree and Chili's Too.
"The sheer number of airport users who will see food waste composting in action will also have a big impact on raising awareness of recycling" SWMD Executive Director David Berger said in a press release. "We're happy to see the Airport serve as a model for other institutions."
The program, which aims to divert waste away from landfills, will sell the compost as soil additives.

Fighting paint with paint: 'The more we do this, the better it will be'
SPRINGFIELD, Ore. -- Thousands of gang related tags at hundreds of sites around Springfield slow down law enforcement , according to Springfield police, but a new volunteer graffiti squad is helping paint over the problem in the city.
"It sort of makes it invisible," said Springfield police volunteer Dave Spiro as he sprayed painted over graffiti plastered on a pole near Pioneer Parkway in Springfield. "You're not actually seeing the tagging or the graffiti."
Spiro is part of a group of volunteers who clean up graffiti around the city by painting over the tags or wiping away the marks with heavy duty chemicals.
But the volunteers aren't just cleaning up the city. Springfield Police Sergeant John Umenhofer said they're helping solve cases by cataloging each tag for future law enforcement investigations.
"Because they were documenting where the sites were," said Umenhofer as he stood in front of a wall near Pioneer Parkway covered in graffiti. "And when we arrested the person that we knew was doing it, then we knew that he was responsible for literally a hundred sites."
Umenhofer said gang members or want-to-be gang members tag public property in Springfield to mark their "supposed" territory.
"But we are here to tell you that with the citizens of Springfield, it's their territory, not the painters, not the taggers," said Umenhofer.
"It's very ugly," said Spiro. "It's a real mess and the people that do that kind of should think before they act."
Umenhofer said tagging is a misdemeanor crime, but offenders can still receive several months in jail if convicted.

As Saudi diplomats return from Iran after the severing of diplomatic relations, protests continue in neighboring Bahrain over the Saudi kingdom's execution of Shi'ite cleric Nimr al-Nimr.
The cleric, along with 46 other condemned men, was executed on Saturday, prompting protests from Shi'ite groups around the world against the Sunni Saudi Arabian monarchy.
The mass executions appeared to be a show of strength by a country surrounded by turmoil and deeply concerned about potential unrest in its oil-rich Eastern Province, according to analysts.
"Saudi Arabia wants to portray itself as a strong country that can stop any opposition in its Eastern Province, or anywhere else," says Khalifa Gaballah, the Arab affairs editor at Masry al-Youm, a prominent Egyptian newspaper. "Saudi Arabia is a massive state in an area surrounded by conflicts."
Unrest to the east
As the protests in Bahrain continue, Saudi leaders fear that the unrest could spill into its Eastern Province, where the mostly-Shi'ite population has long complained of marginalization – Such fears, says Gulf State Analytics founder Giorgio Cafiero, are not unfounded.
"We should be keeping a close eye on events in Bahrain," he said. "In the Shia villages of Bahrain, protesters have expressed their solidarity with their counterparts in Saudi Arabia's Eastern Province," Cafiero said.
Beyond inciting unrest in Saudi Arabia, sectarian strife in Bahrain could provide an opportunity for Islamic State militants to exploit the chaos, targeting the tiny, strategically located nation.
Bahrain - located off the eastern coast of Saudi Arabia - has a Shi'ite majority population and a Sunni monarch in charge.
While Shi'ite protesters continue to express their anger at the Saudi government, officials in Bahrain have followed the lead of Saudi Arabia and its Sunni allies. Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Sudan and Kuwait have all cut or downgraded diplomatic ties with Shi'ite-dominated Iran after protesters attacked the Saudi embassy in Tehran.
Saudi Arabia accuses Iran of meddling in the affairs of foreign countries, including Bahrain. Saudi television channel Al-Arabiya reported Wednesday six people had been arrested in Bahrain, accused of being part of a "terrorist cell" associated with Iran and Iranian-backed Hezbollah.
Threats from within and beyond
It's not just Shi'ite dissidents worrying the Saudi government, according to Cafiero. All of the men executed were convicted terrorists, with 43 being affiliated with al-Qaida, a group that self-identifies as Sunni.
Islamic State militants also issued a threat against the Saudi government online on Tuesday.
"The Islamic State always seeks to free prisoners, but we calculate that the ending of the issues of prisoners will not happen except with the eradication of the rule of tyrants, and then destroying their prisons and razing them to the ground," it reads.
Saudi Arabia is also bogged down with fighting in Yemen and involved in the Syria and Libya wars, according to Gulf State Analytics' Dubai-based senior adviser Theodore Karasik.
The diplomatic dispute, he adds, could be in part an attempt to shift geopolitical alliances as a way to manipulate potential conflict resolutions to be more favorable to maintaining or growing Saudi power.
Conversely, Iran has reason to use the diplomatic break to potentially grow its international standing, he says.
"Iran can argue that the al-Sauds are incapable of governing their kingdom," he explained.
Shi'ite groups in other parts of the region have also vowed revenge for al-Nimr's death. In Iraq, two Sunni mosques were attacked in apparent retaliation for the execution.
And given the depth of the Sunni-Shi'ite divide in many parts of the Middle East and beyond, says Gaballah, from Masry al-Youm, the Saudi Arabia-Iran dispute could mean widespread violence if it is not resolved soon.
"I believe this conflict is impacting the whole region," he said. "It's most dangerous for the Gulf, but if this crisis is not contained swiftly, it may lead to conflicts in many other parts of the region."
