A Tale of Two Companies
Barbara Fitzgerald
I am on a mission—nay, a crusade—to rid the world of evil in the form of single-use plastics (SUPs). Up until now, my efforts have been focused mostly on eliminating SUPs from my own life, and lecturing anyone within earshot. Usually, when I inform someone I see using SUPs of the detriment they pose to our environment and human health, I get one of two responses: 1) "Oh Barbara, you're such a hippie!" Or, 2) "Well I hardly ever use SUPs so it's ok in this instance." I'm pretty sure both of these responses are why this emoji exists:
My response to number one: what does that even mean? Are you trying to tease me for being Earth conscious? Ouch (but not really). If that makes me a hippie, so be it... your grandchildren and great grandchildren and great-great grandchildren will thank me some day; that is, if they are not already living in some Wall-E type universe brought on by the devastations of SUPs. My response to number 2: I suppose that's all good and fine if your use of SUPs is minimal, but the fact that less than half of SUPs are actually recycled (and humans throw away enough plastic each year to circle the Earth FOUR times) leads me to believe that despite feeling good about your "minimal use" you are still contributing to the problem.
If there is anything I have learned in the past few weeks it is that using my voice for the greater good is not only within my power, but it is my responsibility as a citizen and as an inhabitant of this planet. Apathy and complacency just aren't going to work anymore—in fact, I'm pretty sure they never did. This should matter to you because it concerns the future of this one planet on which you are able to live. And there IS something you can do about it. I am writing today to tell you about my experience with two very different organizations regarding the use of SUPs and their responses to my outreach.
Let's start with company #1: The Chicago Cubs (and the operations teams at Wrigley Field). My hubby and I went to our first Cubs game together at Wrigley Field toward the end of the 2016 season. What a day! It was a blast. I am nothing if not a people-observer, and my lord, do you Cubs fans love your beer?! No judgement- summertime day drinking will forever be one of my own favorite pastimes. What actually caught my surprise more than the drinking was the fact that nearly every single beverage purchased at Wrigley Field was poured into a single-use plastic cup. I'm not just talking beer here- I watched the concessions sales teams walk through the stands and every time a beverage was purchased- from water to soda to beer- it was poured into a super-spirited Cubs single-use plastic cup. To make matters worse, when I was done with my own beverage I scoured the stadium in search of a friendly recycling bin. I was unsuccessful. Finally, I asked an attendant where such a bin could be found, only to be informed that Wrigley Field does not recycle! Here's this face again:
Seriously, the thought of an entire baseball stadium using and NOT recycling SUPs on a daily basis nearly ruined my entire vacation. A couple months later, I couldn't take it anymore and I sent this email to the Cubs Fan Services:
To the Cubs Organization:
I would like to start by sending you a heartfelt congratulations on your World Series win. I think the whole world was rooting for you.
Now it's time to root for the world.
My husband and I visited Wrigley Field for our first Cubs game in the 2016 season; as an avid baseball enthusiast, I was enthralled by the experience your ballpark and ball club offered to a couple of visiting San Francisco Giants fans. It was a great day and a great game!
There is one thing that left me shocked and a bit dismayed: I noticed that essentially every single beverage purchased at Wrigley Field gets poured into a single-use plastic cup. Not ideal. To add insult to injury, when I asked a stadium attendant where I could recycle my cup, he informed me that Wrigley Field does not recycle. My jaw dropped nearly to the floor. I can only imagine the amount of single-use plastic you go through in a day. Is it true that it is not being recycled?
Perhaps you are not aware of the detriment of single use plastics to our environment? I will keep it brief by explaining that it takes plastics about 500 years to degrade in a landfill; even then, plastics do not completely degrade, but rather breakdown to microplastics that absorb toxins which pollute the environment and all its inhabitants. Plastics are also well-known to be endocrine disrupters, especially affecting the adrenals in not only humans, but the many animals that are inadvertently exposed to plastics. The ever-rising statistics of plastic-related deaths in marine life is both alarming and quite dangerous for the sustainability our entire ecosystem.
Some great sources for further peer-reviewed science-based facts on this topic are the Plastic Pollution Coalition (plasticpollutioncoalition.org) and the Center for Biological Diversity (biologicaldiversity.org).
Now, more than ever, it is imperative to care for our Earth. I think you have an incredible opportunity to become a leader, not just in baseball but in conservation of this great planet.
I hope you will take this note to heart and reconsider your use of single-use plastics at Wrigley Field, as well as the importance of a recycling program. You have a voice much louder than mine and I would love to see you use it for the good of generations of Cubs fans to come.
Barbara Jean Fitzgerald
Within a day (kudos for timeliness!) I had already received a response, which looked like this:
Hello Barbara,
Thank you so much for reaching out to the Chicago Cubs. We appreciate your congrats to us regarding our World Series win.
Regarding your concerns about Wrigley Field recycling, we as the Cubs Organization understand the importance of being environmentally friendly. They don't call us the friendly confines just for our fans and team! Wrigley Field does recycle as well as the front office where we can. With our 1060 Restoration project, we are working even harder to be as sustainable as possible. I have added the link below to our many examples as to how we are doing our best to be as sustainable as we can.
We thank you for your suggestion and will strongly consider it as you have stated, it is time to root for the World now.
Again thank you for reaching out and Go Cubs!
Sal Azam | Chicago Cubs | SEP Representative Wrigley Field | 1060 W. Addison St. | Chicago, IL 60613 w: 773-388-8271
Ok. Not the response I was hoping for, but a good start. Mostly, I appreciated that his response to me was personalized and that he acknowledged that he actually read my email. I looked over the link he sent me and was glad to see that Wrigley Field is working towards sustainability, but there was nothing on there about moving away from the use of SUPs, nor how the ones they are using are being recycled. I voiced this concern in my response. He very politically "dealt" with me because just one squeaky nail doesn't require a ton of attention. Can you imagine the impact we could create if every single one of you reading this reached out? If every single person I saw on Facebook excited about the Cubs World Series win asked the stadium to recycle? Seriously... feel free to copy and paste my own email. His contact info is above. There is strength in numbers.
In 2009 AT&T park, home of my own San Francisco Giants, diverted 1,750 tons of throwaways from landfills, bringing our stadium's recycling rate to 75%. By 2020, they hope to be a completely waste-free facility, and they are well on their way to achieving it. So, the lesson here is that the San Francisco Giants are practically perfect in every way. But in all seriousness, this is proof that it can be done.
And why stop here? I'm not singling out the Cubs out of some personal vendetta, but because I was there to witness with my own eyes. Do a little research about your own baseball stadiums; hell, why stop there? Research your football, basketball, hockey stadiums while you're at it! Get in touch with them and demand better. You are their fans. They should aim to please you. Again, feel free to copy and paste my own email. I understand that completely eliminating SUPs from sports stadiums may not be entirely feasible but there is absolutely no excuse for not recycling.
Which brings me to company #2: Nordstrom. Has anyone ever had better customer service in retail?! Seriously, they are the best. Which makes the story I am about to tell all the more heartbreaking.
Over the past weekend, I was in Southern California for the absolute cutest girl in the world (my niece)'s 4th birthday. She received a treasure trove of gifts, including what seemed like an entire new wardrobe, mostly from Nordstrom.com. As these gifts were shipping from out of town relatives, they were all still in their original shipping packaging. When that cutie opened them, I noticed that every single item shipped from Nordstrom.com was individually wrapped in a single-use plastic bag. <Insert confounded emoji face here> When I commented on that, someone actually said "it's so the clothes stay protected." I graduated to this face:
Is keeping a shirt that my niece will probably wear three times before she outgrows it "protected" more important than protecting this planet we're on, which we're expecting to live for the next few lifetimes?! So as not to lose my fairy-godmother-in-good-standing stature, I zipped my expletive-filled mouth shut and immediately came home to write another email.
Basically, I reworked my email to the Cubs to make it fit; I told Nordstrom how much I admire and appreciate their dedication to customer service, which is truly unparalleled in my retail experience (you always set them up with praise first, right?). And then I told them how I noticed every item ordered from their website was wrapped in plastic. I gave them my most brief spiel on the dangers of SUPs and how seldom they are actually recycled. The stats on plastics being recycled (or not) is already abysmal, in my opinion; it's even worse when looking specifically at single use plastic bags. It is estimated that a mere 1% (ONE PERCENT) of these bags are actually being recycled. I asked them how they planned to do better. This was the response I received:
| Dear Ms. Fitzgerald,
Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. Nordstrom is constantly working to make improvements in all areas of business to provide the best experience possible. I have passed along your feedback to the appropriate team for further consideration.
Warm Regards,
Sarah B. | Customer Care | Nordstrom.com | 888.282.6060
So, basically, I got a form letter back from them. This response didn't even assure me that they read my email, let alone took it seriously. I felt so betrayed! Here is a company I have been loyal to pretty much my entire life (have you met my mother?) and they didn't have anything more to say?
I'm generally not a one and done type of girl; if you didn't already gather, I believe in the rules of baseball and three strikes are usually what I'm willing to give. Ok, Nordstrom. Strike one. I responded how disappointed I was in their "form letter" and their supposed lack of attention on this matter. I am still waiting for a second response.
Again, I am asking you to get involved. Send them emails demanding better. Nordstrom exists because people like you and me shop there. This means that our opinions MATTER. I'm not calling for an all-out boycott (yet); I'm asking you to light a little flame under their bottoms. Get them to wake up and see that environmental conservation is, and always will be, the height of fashion. Ok, maybe it's not, but I for one am determined to make it so! Click here to send Nordstrom your own letter, asking them to reconsider the use of single-use plastics on practically every item that ships from their website. If after that, they still don't change their shipping methods, it may be time for me to say goodbye to my first and only retail love-affair.
If the reasons why single-use plastics make me so enraged are still not clear to you, I am going to assume you've been living under a rock for the last few years (decades). May I suggest you spend a little time on a website called google? This rant is already well over 2,000 words and I actually have work to get back to. There is a bevy of fact-based (not to be confused with alternative-facts) information out there and you should familiarize yourself with it; not just for the good of our planet but for the good of your own health and your family's.
These things matter. And its high time we all start speaking up for the things that matter. There is no action towards betterment that is too small. What matters to you is worth fighting for. Writing emails is so, so simple. I've provided you with all the contact information you need if you feel so inclined to reach out to the Cubs or to Nordstrom. But don't stop there. It is so easy to research how to get in touch with a company who you think overuses SUPs and could be doing better. Don't wait for me, or anyone else, to do it for you. BE THE LEADER YOU WISH TO SEE IN THE WORLD!
All my love,

Information from the Quarterly / Planning Meeting
Good New Everybody! The meeting on the 23rd went over very well as a decent amount of membership were in attendance. As the report will show the membership present have voted and agreed to "Hibernate" the selling beer bust at the Chain Drive until March 2012. What this means is that it gives Chain Drive some time to recoup their funds as well as gives HOTB some time to support our Bigger Brothers within the Texas Region. Yet be aware the "Social Draught" at Iron Bear are still in effect, the 3rd Sunday of the month. Henceforth, we have put forth an idea of a double treat for those 1st Sundays til march. Which is road trip to visit Dallas Bears, Houston Area Bears, Trinity River Bears and San Antonio Bears for their respective busts in their areas also we have agreed to create for those who do not wish to travel a Movie Day on those days, which means it gives everyone another chance to go out and about with the membership and see some new and upcoming movies in our area.
Next I'd like to address the issue of some not receiving their renewals and or their new membership cards and pins. There has been a slight hiccup with the programs that are used to inform our Secretary of expired and those new members. It was informing Aldo that certain people were not members at all, including himself. The problem has since been repaired and all should be receiving their info soon. Aldo does apologize for the hiccup but we all know how software and computers can do what they want to do. So everyone give the GreyBear a big hug when ya see him.
Other than that, its still going to be a packed few months even with the hibernation of Beer Busts at the Drive. Novem"bear" has a few ideals in it, Kelly is tossing the ideal of Bears Bowling that month. We still have the to breakfasts as well as the Bears Night Out. Plus I hope everyone will have a safe and sane Thanksgiving, and feed with imagination and come home full. Decem"bear" is also going to be chocked with events as well. With the annual Christmas Party. Information to come further about that.
That's all for now My Bears, enjoy Your HallowBear weekend at Chain Drive or the Iron Bear, both will have some exciting things happen on the 29th. See Ya'll out and about.

The Chef and I the February Cookbook Club
Things are hotting up again this month for the Kai Cookbook Club. Last month we had a great night with Roberta's cookbook intriguing and delighting a room full of curious diners. This month you can expect to be delighted once more, but with a totally different kind of fayre.
After last months flavorsome trip to NYC we're stripping things back and staying very close to home. So close in fact that we are introducing you to a local cookbook written by local people(it's all very Little Britain!) that we love.
'The Chef and I' is a homegrown cookbook from Sunday Times columnist Mona Wise and her husband Ron, the chef. The couple are great advocates of the local food scene, and last year took the opportunity to express their passion by compiling this book.
Ron is a seasoned chef, (pardon the pun), and was born in the States, while Mona is a pure bred Galwegian. This combination has naturally resulted in a fusion of cuisines, which cookbook clubbers will get to sample on the night.
On the night we'll have Ron in the kitchen with Jess, while Mona will give a talk on what inspired her to write the book, and her passion for the food industry.
For a sneak peak of what the couple are planning pop over to Mona's blog – bit.ly/1cR8bTf
Tickets are available in advance from the restaurant or by calling us on 091 526003.

Orcs build great slave-rowed galleys, veritable floating wooden fortresses, their holds bulging with crops and resources that the elves nippy Ma'Janah can sail circles around. Dryads would loathe the ocean, except the Mangrove Court who can tolerate the salt. I have a hard time picturing the goblins building more than canoes… or perhaps they're actually adept sailors like the Polynesians, building great outriggers and catamarans. Maybe the goblins cooperate with the Mangrove Court, the dryads there helping shape living wood into canoes, and the goblins crewing the ocean-going canoes or their Secret-priests serving as navigators. Dwarves could make pumice rafts for navigating rivers and lakes, but I don't see them as good swimmers or seafarers.

cranberry-nut granola
Let's bake something with cranberries today.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving and the holiday season. Because cranberry things are everywhere.
I recently read cranberry season goes until November.
So, this is perfect timing.
Let's make homemade cranberry granola.
Because homemade granola can be healthier than store bought.
Because granola is actually really fun to whip up.
aaaand because it makes your house smell amazing.
This is a healthy granola recipe adapted from Giada De Laurentiis. She has always been my chef-spiration…or my chef idol, really.
I loaded my granola with toasted pecans, sliced almonds, dried cranberries, and raisins.
Cranberry - Nut Granola
- 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
- ¼ cup sunflower seeds
- 2/3 cup grade a maple syrup
- 1/3 cup honey
- ¼ cup unsweetened cranberry juice (I've also used natural apple juice)
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 - 3 cups old-fashioned oats (I use Rob's Mill gluten-free)
- ¼ tsp. fine sea salt
- ½ cup roasted almonds (or sliced almonds)
- ½ cup toasted pecans (optional)
- 1 cup unsweetened dried cranberries (and/or raisins)
Preheat oven to 350 and toast nuts and seeds for about 10 minutes. Take out and reduce oven to 325.
In a medium bowl, toss the oats, nuts, seeds and salt.
In another small bowl, whisk the honey, maple, juice, and cinnamon until combined. Pour over oat mixture and toss until everything is moistened.
Spread on a sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake for about 20 minutes. Take out and fold in raisins and cranberries. Bake for another 10 - 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Let cool and store in an air-tight container for up to 3 weeks.
Naturally, this stuff looks great in a mason jar.
Give some to a friend this holiday season.

Make a Paradise Out of Your Own Lawn An excellently crafted and maintained lawn is desirable to everyone including you. You might be wondering what on earth makes some lawns look like a paradise yet yours comes close to none. If yours is one of the beautiful lawns admired by every person, you must have applied some tips that made your lawn excellent. There are some tricks that can be applied to make every lawn be dream paradise lawn for every person. The lawn care expertise may be minimum in you despite being one of the respected professional in your career. In case you want to give the lawn personal attention, it is possible by implementing the expert lawn care tips. Giving your care frequent lawn care services requires to be disciplined. You can opt to hire the lawn care experts to do the job if you don't have the time to attend to the lawn or you don't wish the bother. Having a carefully designed lawn is not the only thing, caring for it requires your attention as well. Supposing you already have one, you need to mow your lawn regularly. Mowing is the most repetitive care required of a yard. The lawn care experts can mow the lawn at the right moment and do an excellent job. Doing it on your own is an option as well. When doing it personally, the lawn mowing machine should be sharpened. Still, you must get information on how to sharpen the blades for effectiveness. Low moving can lead to the shallow root system and should, therefore, be avoided. Shallow roots limits that grass ability to absorb adequate nutrients and water. For thrashing jobs, you can depend on the lawn care experts. Thrashing in necessary when the thrash under the grass is excess limiting aeration. There is the thickness of the thrash that can even be exposing the grass to pests and diseases. Clipping can help your lawn minimize fertilizer requirements. Clipping can be done professionally making your lawn grow more healthy and dense. Irrigation is called for when there is inadequacy in soil water supply. This is one of the exercises that can take considerable times and can get you tired. The lawn care experts are however different in this aspect and will not give until the yard is adequately watered. This makes the hired lawn care service more effective that the do it you. The outcomes of the expert lawn care prove worth of the cost involved. To start with, they take all the responsibilities of tendering your lawn. They will clip, irrigate, mow, thrash and apply fertilizer at the right time. Asking for a quote from the local trusted lawn care service provider is all you need to do.Interesting Research on Landscapers – What You Didn't Know

Well-known San Pedro resident bird expert, Elbert Greer has finally compiled the first set of his many stories into a new book, "Birdwatching with Bubba - A Guidebook to Birds of Belize."
This book is a wonderful collection of bird data combined with vivid descriptions of the forest, jungle and wildlife found on Ambergris Caye and on mainland Belize. Expeditions to areas like Bacalar Chico National Park and Marine Reserve, the New River Lagoon in Lamanai and Crooked Tree Wildlife Sanctuary to name a few, and numerous inland river trips have provided the author with a multitude of tales and information. Each of Bubba's recollections is deliciously entertaining and flow easily from the scientific name of the specific bird to a picturesque explanation of their habitats and habits. Almost as fascinating as the bird encounters, are Mr. Greer's interactions with the island's human characters. Interesting individuals such as Miss Celi from Holiday Hotel, Chico (the hotel's bartender), Lovely Rita, Tequila Steve and Reverend Bill add charm and familiarity to the author's accounts.
Elbert Greer explains that he and Bubba set out to write this book about birds almost ten years ago. Elbert was a school teacher in the United States at a local college in Memphis, married and living in midtown near the campus when he bought what was to be his future co-author, a baby bird dog. Bubba, a very verbal black Labrador, turned out to be a rather smart dog and, of course, the two of them became best friends. Elbert explains, "Bubba seems to think I had a mid-life crisis-I tell myself I just got bored; either way I ended up here, no wife, and talking to a confused bird dog who thinks ornithology is his calling. I have become a Belizean citizen and tour guide, taking tourists from the village diving on the barrier reef, fishing, and bird watching in the jungle. It's a nice way to make a living."
Birdwatching with Bubba is a collection of the stories Elbert and Bubba published over the years in the island's local newspaper, the San Pedro Sun. The stories, a total of 120, are printed as they were published in the "Birds of Belize" column and contain information on 280 Belizean birds. Some are short stories about island life and its variety of characters. The names of the locations are real, and exactly where the book says they are. It is not a guidebook but if you wish to read it as such, Elbert says he used all the bars and bartenders' correct names so "you won't get lost!" His disclaimer reads, "This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents either are the product of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously, and any resemblance to any actual persons (living or dead), events, or locales is entirely coincidental. We tried to make all the bird information as accurate as possible, but that's not what "Birdwatching with Bubba" is all about, as you will see."
The beginning chapters acquaint the reader with Bubba and Elbert's new home, Ambergris Caye, Belize, formerly British Honduras. Bubba's birdwatching stories begin with the "Big Bird of Belize," the Jabiru Stork. The chapter reads, "The Jabiru is the largest flying bird in the Americas, standing over 5 1/2 feet tall with a wingspan of over eight feet. It has long legs and a massive black bill. Its head and neck are black and without feathers. At the base of its bare neck is a broad red band of skin. Its plumage is entirely white. Some friends have pointed out that a likeness of the Jabiru can be found printed on the Belize 100-dollar bill. After a few failed attempts and false starts, Bubba and I set out to find a Jabiru nest on our own."
"Birdwatching with Bubba," mentions several more bird species in one, single selection which reads, "Chachalaca crackled in the background. Blue-gray Tanagers, Tri-colored Heron, a tree of Ani, a Green Kingfisher perching on a stick, two Gray-necked Wood Rails hunting along the bank with little Ruddy Crakes mixing in their hunting ground, two Red-billed Pigeons cooing from the tallest tree, a tree filled with yellow-colored Parrots, and a variety of hawks soared above on rocking wings, casting hunting eyes downward. I turned slowly to study four Boat-billed Heron perched on a dead tree leaning in the lagoon."
Elbert Greer considers himself a lucky man and readers will too as they peruse passages such as the following in his summary. "I've built myself a little beach house on a small island in the Caribbean off the coast of Belize. It sits overlooking the barrier reef in the middle of two acres of coconut trees. I purchased the land from a coconut farmer. The older Mestizos in the village on the other side of the island call it a cocal. There is a river without a bridge between my end of the island and the village, with little more than a beach path for six miles to reach my cocal. Bubba and I come and go by boat along the reef. It's a fine boat; 23 feet of fiberglass with a good engine. In a way it is my car. I keep it at my dock on the Caribbean side where we fish and nap in the hammock under the palapa."
"Birdwatching with Bubba" is delightful reading-whether you are an avid birdwatcher or not! Elbert Greer's (and Bubba's) adventures will soon be available on the Internet (for $18.69US) at Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com and also Xlibris.com book store sites. For those in a hurry, it was noted that Xlibris.com seems to process orders faster (and gains the author added royalties!). Eager consumers may phone in orders by calling the US at 1-888-795-4274, option 5, or by faxing (215) 923-4685. Additionally, this "literary masterpiece" will (hopefully, someday!) be for sale in island gift shops and mainland Belize book stores. In the meantime, the impatient and curious may view excerpts of the book on the worldwide web at www.xlibris.com/BirdwatchingwithBubba.ht

The War, Scale, Dialectics, and Poetry
First, of course, I think of the Iraqi civilians who are bound to be killed, or injured, or will have their houses bombed and their villages destroyed, because they live in a region said to be central to the activity of "insurgents."
Then I think about scale. That word and its various meanings has interested me for some time now, and will probably come up repeatedly on this blog (a recent post talks a bit about it). In this case I was surprised by the emotional effect of the switch from "occupation" back to "war" in the framing of the assault on Iraq. The occupation seemed like something ongoing, and for me to contribute to efforts to get American troops out of Iraq, to help prevent U.S. corporations from taking over its resources, and to encourage opposition to the Bush administration in whatever ways I could, seemed like a series of activities stretched out in time, always necessary but somehow elongated. The bombings changed the temporal sense of what was happening; it's characterized again by an urgency, an immediacy of events (even more than immediate—a sense of "too late," "not again").
But what can this "immediacy" mean, when I'm so far from Iraq, when these events are taking place on a scale that's more or less inaccessible to me, even if I can read about it in the news? The global scale of contemporary life, if one's paying attention, can be paralyzing; many activists and progressives talk about their sense of helplessness in relation to the horrors happening so far from them. Though focusing on one's own self-doubt can't do much to help the people being killed for the business interest of western elites, it's still a necessary problem to deal with if you want to continue caring with the energy to try to figure out what you can do, what would help the most, and to do it.
And what do I do as a poet when confronted with this situation? I want the art I make to be touched by it.
Seeking the best way to think about these problems brings me back to dialectics. When I use that term, I'm not thinking about a deterministic pattern with a harmonious result, predictable by the right Hegelian thinker. Brecht's least-resolved texts and Adorno's Minima Moralia and Negative Dialectics probably come closest to the kind of dialectics I find useful and necessary, but it's even less attached to anything doctrinaire. Dialectics is not a system or pattern to be imposed on things, and I don't view it as inherent in the world either; it's a way of thinking, where thinking is thought of in terms of movement, an activity or practice rather than a collection of thought-possessions. This activity is characterized by a back-and-forth movement between contradictory systems, positions or frameworks. It involves the recognition that no thought ever exhausts the thing it's thought about, that all positions are partial—but it refuses to settle for a nebulous relativism. The whole point of dialectics is to allow for the establishment of a position without getting stuck in it. To keep one on one's toes. To prevent the extremes of dogmatism and nihilistic despair.
I co-designed a class for first-year students at The Evergreen State College a few years ago in which we focused on questions of scale in making art. The final assignment was to create a "ballad" (very loosely defined to include performance art, video and theater as well as poetry and song) about "modern colonialism" (loosely defined to include large-scale urban planning as well as water privatization by the Bechtel corporation), and the question was, "how do you take something immense and put it in a small container without robbing it of its particularity?" Even a large piece of art—and even a long life—is a small container when confronted with consciousness of global events. I suggested dialectics as one useful tool. Take the relation of me, an observer in the midwestern United States, to someone in a significantly different culture in another part of the world. I want to comprehend the relation between the two cultures in the context of a given political problem. No matter how fair I attempt to be, no matter how carefully I attempt to see the other culture on its own terms, my very way of defining a "cultural term" and the proper route to avoiding parochialisms is still determined to some extent by my culture. That partiality has to enter into my thinking and alter its scale. The attempt has to include the outline of a view I can't have, one in which it's precisely my cultural standpoint that's missing: the point of view of someone in the other culture. And then it must include consideration of the relationship between these two points of view, the one that belongs to me and is thus partially invisible because it can never be seen from the outside, and the one that's partially invisible because everything I can see about it is seen from the outside (my inside). Or, rather, the juxtaposition of the two situations is to be thought about, since to speak of a relation here implies a "whole" whose possibility is denied by these contradictions. I can then think of the situation of these two one-way, unequal trajectories of consideration as a system… but again that determination of it is conditioned by the partiality of my standpoint; the system looks so different from each of the points of view within it (say, that of someone in a bombed-out city in Iraq and someone about to go sing at an anti-war protest in the aggressor nation) that to call it a system seems false, and the "outside" view of that system is one that can't be fully achieved except through imagining a second system (say, a different society) in which the specific contradictions of the first don't exist, or have different meanings. And so on.
Parataxis finds a place in dialectical thinking of this kind. Since there is no step-by-step logic that can adequately address the situation, the juxtaposition not just of elements (facts, interpretations) but of entire systems (which include views of a system, languages, categories of what seems significant, cultures, economies, distinct partialities, etc.), and the significances generated by those juxtapositions, can perhaps provide ideas, ways of thinking, points of view and possibilities for practice that could not be reached via other routes. Simply placing two things next to one another can allow for considerations of the meaning of that placement that might be missed if one starts with a predetermined notion of the kind of relation one's seeking.
The danger of a paratactic, non-synthetic dialectics: instead of engaging in a movement that carries me back and forth, with new "back-to's" and "forth-to's," and hopefully a catapulting into something else, being stuck in the middle as the contradictory movement swirls around me. Or getting nowhere because landing always means taking off.
Art seems like a good place to practice this. I'm hoping to do that in a large poetic project focusing on juxtapositions of different ways of treating differences in scale, from extreme disparity between individual sentences to contrasts between large sections (where one might be highly narrative, or monotonous, or didactic, while the one next to it might be disjointed, or widely varied, or lyrical), between topic areas, between different notions of what scale is (a temporal term, a spatial one, the locus of a bunch of puns, a quality of thought…). A bit of the draft introduction to this project is on my other blog. My hope is that it becomes a catalog of ways to attempt a dialectical poetry, one whose form (the way of thinking it embodies and creates) and content are motivated by problems such as those I've sketched all-too-abstractly here.
For now, I'm going to prepare for tomorrow's rally against the occupation of Iraq. That the questions presented here haven't been answered is no reason to refrain from contributing to the end of a regime so unfriendly to all but the worst solutions.

It doesn't take a second look to see Joanne Sunnarborg knows fashion. At first glance you see a slim blonde dressed to the nines wearing an outstanding pair of custom cowboy boots. Sunnarborg says with a smile, "I started to pay attention to fashion in the first grade, but the most important thing I've learned over the years is making sure a person is comfortable in what they are wearing."
It's that later philosophy she gives credit to her business success. As the owner and proprietor of Desperado in the Old Mill District, Sunnarborg is about to celebrate the boutique's 17th anniversary.
In today's economy that's no small feat. "I don't pretend this has been an easy journey," Sunnarborg shrugs. "Boutiques don't sell products people have to have so I appreciate every customer who walks through my door. Any little thing I can do to help that customer have a good experience is what keeps them coming back."
Sunnarborg is proud of her loyal customer following. Desperado spent its first 11 years in two locations in Portland's historic upscale Pearl District. It started as a high-end western lifestyle boutique. Sunnarborg says, "I fell in love with western art you can wear. It's uniquely American. It's part of our country's history."
A week after opening in the Pearl she sold her first pair of $1,500 custom made cowboy boots. In the decade that followed her customers included stars like Academy-Award winner William Hurt and Country Pop-star Taylor Swift.
"I have customers from my time in Portland who still shop at Desperado every year while vacationing in Bend," says Sunnarborg. "We're known for our great outdoors, our excellent crafted beer and more and more I hear visitors tell me we have the best boutiques around."
Bend was once Sunnarborg's vacation destination too. So when her youngest child went off to college Sunnarborg decided it was time to make Central Oregon her permanent home.
"I signed my lease in the Old Mill District in 2005. I went into construction to customize the store and opened my doors in '07," recalls Sunnarborg. Then the economy tanked. Over the next several years Sunnarborg watched two neighboring major retail chains and a small shoe store close in the Old Mill's north end. Sunnarborg says, "It was brutal, there were days when no one came in."
But fortunately that's changing. Sunnarborg pulled herself up by her bootstraps, and began looking for ways to expand her customer base. "It's not all western anymore. We offer clothes, boots, jewelry and gifts that fit the Central Oregon lifestyle. I would describe the new Desperado as a mix of bohemian charm with the latest on trend fashion for women and men," says Sunnarborg. "I've expanded our price point too. We still carry many of our high end lines, but if it's a $39 shirt at Desperado, it's going to look great and be well made. I'm going to stand behind it."
Later this fall she plans an exciting transformation for the store with new paint and interior changes that will capture the fresh attention to the latest trend in fashion. And starting on Friday, October 11 through Sunday, October 13, Desperado will celebrate the store's 17th year of business. Desperado will have a weekend of festivities including trunk shows with Old Gringo Boots, Oregon silver and pewter jewelry maker Toby & Max and Central Oregon artist Barbara Slater.
There will also be a kickoff party and wine tasting Friday night from 5-8pm with Desperado's new neighbor in the Old Mill District – Naked Winery.
Sunnarborg says, "We hope to have a crowd. We look forward to seeing our loyal customers. We also would love to see people who've never shopped with us before. And to our customers who haven't been by in a while, come see what's new. Desperado is like a family and our customers are part of it."
And that Sunnarborg says is reason to celebrate.

|OCLC no.
The Journal of Human Evolution is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal in the field of evolution, specializing in human and primate evolution. The journal was established in 1972 and is published by Elsevier in print and online on ScienceDirect.[1] As of November 2015, the journal was on its 88th volume.[2] The editors-in-chief are Sarah Elton (Durham University) and Mike Plavcan (University of Arkansas).
The journal content covers all aspects of human evolution, focusing on those topics in physical anthropology, primatology, paleoanthropology, and paleolithic archaeology.[1] Topics include but are not limited to studies of human and primate fossils, comparative studies of living species through morphological and molecular evidence (See Molecular Anthropology), and studies supporting fossil evidence of primate and human evolution through stratigraphy and taphonomy.[1] Additional research areas include interpretative analyses of new and previously described fossil or skeletal material, assessments of the phylogeny and paleobiology of primate species including the line of Homo, and studies involving paleoecological and paleogeographical models of primate and human evolution.[1] In addition to articles and studies published in the journal, the journal makes available space to publish brief announcements of new or important discoveries.
Features of this Journal
Content Access
In this journal, individual journal contributors maintain the ability to limit the reach of their published articles. Contributors can decide to limit access to their articles by choosing to publish their articles for subscribers only or to publish their articles as open access content, which allows the general public access to their articles.[1]
Featured Author Videos
The online version of the journal supports short videos of authors explaining their research.[3] These videos, in MP4 file format, are available to stream or for download, allowing them to be watched at a later time using any common media player.
AudioSlides are a feature supported by the online version of the journal through ScienceDirect.[4] This format features a short five-minute visual slide presentation with an audio voice over by the author, based on an article the author has published in the journal. AudioSlides presentations are not peer-reviewed and represent the opinion and views of the author of the author's published work.
Database Linking Tool
The journal, in digital format, has included a Database Linking tool.[5] Authors can choose to publish their data in the journal and link the data to public data repositories established in the field of research, which then can be easily accessed by other researchers in the field or closely associated fields and the general public.
Interactive 3D Models
The publisher, Elsevier has developed three dimensional visualization tools for this journal and others, which authors can choose to include 3-D models and scans within their published articles online.[6] These 3-D models allow for a greater complexity of ideas to be shown visually, which can enhance understanding of these concepts.
Publication Details
Impact Factor and Other Measurements of Importance
According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal had a 2014 impact factor of 3.733, but in 2015, the impact factor increased to 3.767.[1][7] The overall five-year impact factor of this journal is 4.131, as of 2015.[1] For the year 2015, the Eigenfactor , the rating of the total importance of an academic journal, was 0.012.[8] Additionally, Article Influence is a ranking based on the Eigenfactor score, and is often comparable to the Impact Factor. The journal's Article Influence is 1.572 for 2015.[8] The journal also has a SCImago Journal Rank of 2.145 for 2015. For 2015, the SNIP/IPP ranking for the journal is 1.211.[9] SNIP refers to Source-Normalized Impact per Paper and it is a means to measure impact of a particular journal by weighing the citations of a particular journal in comparison to the total number of citations in the given subject field. IPP (Impact per Publication) is a ratio comparing the number of citations in the a year to the number of citations in the previous three years divided by the total number of papers published in those three years.[10]
Review Speed
The review speed refers to the time at which a manuscript, an article or other suitable publication, enters the journal's publication process and exits the process for publication.[11] During this time it spends in review, the manuscript is reviewed, and returned to author for alterations, clarifications, and edits, based on recommendations of the reviewers. When the author is finished with edits, the manuscript is resubmitted for final review and if accepted, published. There may be multiple rounds between review and re-submission before a manuscript is accepted. The initial review period of the Journal of Human Evolution for the year 2015 lasts on average 8 weeks, while the review speed for the whole process averages 24 weeks to publication.[11]
Online Article Publication Time
For the year 2015, the time between the acceptance of the manuscript by the journal and the date when the manuscript first appears within the online database averages 8 weeks.[12] The time between the first appearance of the article online and the article's final appearance online currently averages 15 weeks for 2015. The initial publication of an article online is not fully paginated, which takes more time but is useful for professionals in the field that may wish to cite the information from the article in their own work.
Author Information
Corresponding authors are found worldwide. The majority of contributing authors are found in the United States.[13] In the top ten countries for contributing author, Spain is second, followed by the United Kingdom. Germany, France, Australia, Canada, Israel, Italy and China. These numbers are generated from the last five years' authors and based on the primary authors' country of residence. It doesn't reflect the total number of contributing non-primary authors, as contributing authors are often in collaboration with colleagues at many universities and institutions across the globe.

Fighting Wills and Playing Tennis
In New Hampshire, we have a concept called self-proving wills. A will is self proving as long as it meets the requirements set forth in RSA 551-A. To qualify as self-proving, the signatures of the testator and witnesses must be followed by a sworn acknowledgment made before a notary public or justice of the peace or other official authorized to administer oaths. But what happens if someone with standing wants to contest the will? Let's say they want to raise the issue OF "testamentary capacity" (the ability to write a will) or "undue influence" (wrongdoing on the part of a beneficiary)?
Under New Hampshire law, any party interested in a will can have the probate of a will which has been proved without notice "re-examined". This, then, brings about a proceeding called "proving the will in solemn form." The request to prove the will in solemn form has to be filed within six months of the will being admitted to probate. Any issue related to the execution of a will, testamentary capacity, or fraud, duress, or undue influence is then tried before the probate court.
But who has the burden of proof?
That burden lies on the proponent of the will as opposed to the person contesting it. This means that the person seeking to admit the will to probate has the ultimate burden of proving the testator had testamentary capacity and was free of undue influence. The proponent of the will is aided by a rebuttable presumption. In other words, it is presumed that the testator was sane and presumed that the testator was free from undue influence.
But what happens if an opponent introduces evidence suggesting the contrary is true?
If the opponent of the will produces sufficient evidence to rebut the presumption of
validity, we have a "tennis match."
This is because in New Hampshire, the court has long held that every person is presumed to be sane, until there is some evidence shown to rebut that presumption. If the presumption is rebutted, the burden of proving capacity and everything else (such as being free from undue influence) remains on the will proponent. Evidence need only be introduced if the opponent introduces sufficient evidence to the contrary.
Will contests feel like tennis matches. The game begins with the ball on the opponent's side of the court. The opponent then hits the ball back and if the ball lands on the proponent's side of the court, it is up to the proponent to hit it back again.
Tennis, anyone?
