Title: Religious debates over the Harry Potter series
Passage: Religious debates over the "Harry Potter" series of books by J. K. Rowling are based on claims that the novels contain occult or Satanic subtexts. A number of Protestant, Catholic, and Orthodox Christians have argued against the series, as have some Shia and Sunni Muslims. Supporters of the series have said that the magic in "Harry Potter" bears little resemblance to occultism, being more in the vein of fairy tales such as "Cinderella" and "Snow White", or to the works of C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien, both of whom are known for writing fantasy novels with Christian subtexts. Far from promoting a particular religion, some argue, the "Harry Potter" novels go out of their way to avoid discussing religion at all. However, the author of the series, J. K. Rowling, describes herself as a practising Christian, and many have noted the Christian references which she includes in the final novel "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows".

Title: Barrier Canyon Style
Passage: Barrier Canyon Style (BCS) describes a distinctive style of rock art which appears mostly in Utah, with the largest concentration of sites in and around the San Rafael Swell and Canyonlands National Park, but the full range extend into much of the state and western Colorado. The term was first applied by Polly Schaafsma (The Rock Art of Utah, 1971) to describe a handful of similar sites known at the time, including several along Barrier Creek in Horseshoe Canyon (formerly known as Barrier Canyon). Barrier Canyon Style rock art panels are mostly pictographs (painted) but there are also several petroglyphs (pecked) in the style. These panels are believed to have been created during the archaic period (probably late archaic) and are estimated (from direct and indirect carbon 14 dates) to be somewhere in the range of 1500 to 4000 years old, possibly older -- clay figurines of a similar style found in Cowboy Cave (in a tributary canyon to Horseshoe Canyon) have been dated to over 7000 years old.

Who was born first, James Schuyler or Robert Lowell?
|
Title: Lord Weary's Castle
Passage: Lord Weary's Castle, Robert Lowell's second book of poetry, won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1947 when Lowell was only thirty. Robert Giroux, who was the publisher of Lowell's wife at the time, Jean Stafford, also became Lowell's publisher after he saw the manuscript for "Lord Weary's Castle" and was very impressed; he later stated that "Lord Weary's Castle" was the most successful book of poems that he ever published.
Title: Waking in the Blue
Passage: 'Waking in the Blue' is a poem by Robert Lowell that was published in his book "Life Studies" and is a striking, early example of confessional poetry. Of the handful of poems from "Life Studies" in which Lowell explored his struggles with mental illness, this poem was one of Lowell's most forthwright admissions that he was mentally ill. Though he doesn't discuss the exact nature of his mental illness in the poem, he does describe his hospitalization in a mental institution. Lowell's admission of having spent time in a mental institution was considered a brave one to make when he published the poem in 1959, when public disclosure about mental illness was a serious social taboo.
Title: Pierre Martory
Passage: Pierre Martory (December 1, 1920 October 5, 1998) was a French poet whose influence on New York School poets was quiet but profound.

His work has appeared in many books in both England and the United States, as well as in "The New Yorker" and "Poetry". Martorys personal charm, the poet Ann Lauterbach once said, devolved back to the original meaning of spell. However, as Ashbery has noted, Both the humor and the sadness in his poems are always rendered with an unemphatic clarity that is certainly Mozartian.
Title: Charles North (poet)
Passage: Charles North (born June 9, 1941) is an American poet, essayist and teacher. Described by the poet James Schuyler as the most stimulating poet of his generation, he has received two National Endowment for the Arts Creative Writing Fellowships, an Individual Artists Grant from the Foundation for Contemporary Arts, four Fund for Poetry awards, and a Poets Foundation award.
Title: Robert Lowell
Passage: Robert Traill Spence Lowell IV ( ; March 1, 1917 September 12, 1977) was an American poet. He was born into a Boston Brahmin family that could trace its origins back to the "Mayflower". His family, past and present, were important subjects in his poetry. Growing up in Boston also informed his poems, which were frequently set in Boston and the New England region. The literary scholar Paula Hayes believes that Lowell mythologized New England, particularly in his early work.
Title: James Schuyler
Passage: James Marcus Schuyler (November 9, 1923 April 12, 1991) was an American poet. His awards include the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his 1980 collection "The Morning of the Poem".

Title: Araripesuchus wegeneri
Passage: Araripesuchus is an extinct genus of notosuchian crocodyliform that lived in Gondwana during the Cretaceous Period. The genus includes at least five species found throughout Western Africa and South America. The relationship of the individual species within this genus is hotly debated, specifically, the placement of Araripesuchus wegeneri. "A. wegeneri" is a small bodied crocodyliform characterized by relatively elongate limbs, an upright gait, and marked heterodonty. The tooth morphology, when combined with tooth wear and orientation, suggests that this animal may have been an omnivore or herbivore. Additionally, the gracile limbs and their orientation imply that this was a terrestrial animal. These features demonstrate that "Araripesuchus wegeneri" stands in stark contrast to its modern-day relatives, crocodiles and alligators.
