A Somali-born former member of the Dutch Parliament writes about her circumcision at the age of five and other events that shaped her life
Infidel. By Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Free Press, 353 pp., $26.
By Janice Harayda
In November 2004 a Muslim fanatic shot the filmmaker Theo Van Gogh on an Amsterdam street and used a butcher knife to stab into his chest a letter to Ayaan Hirsi Ali, then a member of the Dutch Parliament. Hirsi Ali had worked with Van Gogh on a film of about female oppression under Islam, called Submission, that included shots of a naked, battered woman covered with writings from the Koran.
Infidel begins with a gripping account of the murder. And the scene sets the tone for much of the rest of this memoir of Hirsi Ali's childhood in Somali and elsewhere, her flight to Holland to escape an arranged marriage, her election to Parliament and her eventual move to the United States and her work for a conservative think tank.
Much of the coverage of Infidel has focused on some of its more harrowing events. These include the day that 5-year-old Hirsi Ali and her 6-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister underwent circumcisions arranged by their grandmother, with the job done in the author's case by a man with scissors "who was probably an itinerant traditional circumciser from the blacksmith clan." But Infidel has equally memorable portraits of later events, such as the treatment Hirsi Ali received after asking for asylum in Holland. The Dutch government, until it could act on her request, gave her free meals and housing in a tidy bungalow in a compound with a swimming pool and tennis and volleyball courts. It also provided her with free laundry services, legal representation and health care, and a "weekly allowance" to cover her basic needs. Does this help you understand why so many people want to emigrate to the Netherlands and other welfare states?
For all its insights into such topics, Infidel isn't always credible or persuasive in its arguments. Hirsi Ali admits that she lied to Dutch officials to get refugee status for herself and, later, for her sister, which raises questions about whether she is always telling the truth elsewhere. And while she waged a brave and admirable campaign to get the authorities to keep track of the "honor killings" of Muslim women who had been raped or otherwise "stained" their family honor, she adds: "I am also convinced that this is the largest, most important issue that that our society and our planet will face in this century." More important than nuclear war?
Some people have called Hirsi Ali "the new Salman Rushdie" because she has received death threats. But her fascinating memoir has much more to offer to most American readers than the frequently opaque magical realism of The Satanic Verses. If you belong to a reading group looking for books that will inspire passionate debate, you could hardly find a memoir more likely to ignite sparks.
Best line: On what the author learned at a Muslim center in Nairobi: "There were so many rules, with minutely detailed prescriptions, and so many authorities had pronounced on them all. Truly Muslim women should cover their bodies even in front of a blind man, even in their own houses. They had no right to walk down the middle of the street. They should not move out of their father's house without permission."
Worst Line: Quoted above, about how the registration of honor killings is "the largest, most important" issue of the century.
Reading group guide: A reading group guide to Infidel for book clubs appears in the April 3, 2007, post directly below this one. The post is archived under "Totally Unauthorized Reading Group Guides on One-Minute Book Reviews.

While growing up in Uruguay, my Poilishe mother learned to cook Italian to save me from getting beaten up by the neighborhood's Italian bullies, however, for Shabbos or yomim toivim the fare was almost invariable Eastern European. One dish which I always considered a special treat was klops. I made it last evening and it was delicious! Ah, the memories it brought back…
Klops – Eastern European Meatloaf
Yields: 6 servings
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 1 lb 8 oz fresh ground beef (not lean beef!)
- 1 carrot, grated
- 1 cup well packed, fresh white breadcrumbs
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2/3 cups crushed tomatoes
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano
- 3 teaspoons fresh parsley
- 2 hard boiled eggs
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- Heat the oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 7 minutes, or until softened and golden, stirring frequently. Add the the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove from the heat cool.
- Preheat oven to 375 F. Lightly grease a 9″x5″x3″ loaf pan. Put the ground beef into a large mixing bowl and add the onions, the garlic, the grated carrots, and the bread crumbs. Toss lightly to combine. Add the eggs, salt and pepper to taste, soy sauce, crushed tomatoes, and oregano. Using your hands mix the ingredients together until well blended. do not overwork or the mixture will be to dry. Divide in half.
- Pour one half the mixture evenly into the loaf pan, Press half the mixture into bottom of a greased loaf pan. Arrange hard cooked eggs down center of the loaf. Cover completely with remaining meat mixture. Bake for 1 1/4 hours or until the edges start shrinking from the sides. Baste the top occasionally with the fatty juices. About 10 minutes before the end, brush the top with the ketchup to glaze.
- Remove to a heatproof surface and leave to rest, tented loosely in aluminum foil for about 12 minutes. Pour off any excess fat that was not absorbed. Cut into thick slices and serve. Or refrigerate and serve cold.
Enjoy, gentle reader, enjoy. I did!

Update: We are resurfacing this feature from 2014 for your reading pleasure on this holiday weekend.
The USS Zumwalt, the latest destroyer now undergoing acceptance trials, comes with a new type of naval artillery: the Advanced Gun System (AGS). The automated AGS can fire 10 rocket-assisted, precision-guided projectiles per minute at targets over 100 miles away.
Those projectiles use GPS and inertial guidance to improve the gun's accuracy to a 50 meter (164 feet) circle of probable error—meaning that half of its GPS-guided shells will fall within that distance from the target. But take away the fancy GPS shells, and the AGS and its digital fire control system are no more accurate than mechanical analog technology that is nearly a century old.
We're talking about electro-mechanical analog fire control computers like the Ford Instruments Mark 1A Fire Control Computer and Mark 8 Rangekeeper. These machines solved 20-plus variable calculus problems in real-time, constantly, long before digital computers got their sea legs. They were still in use when I served aboard the USS Iowa in the late 1980s.
There were a few efforts to marry these older systems to or replace them with digital technology during my tour, one of which (called the Advanced Gun Weapon System Technology Program) was remarkably like the AGS's 100-mile shell: a GPS and inertially guided 11-inch dart-shaped shell wrapped in a 16-inch peel-away jacket, or sabot, that would have been able to fly nearly as far without the rocket assist thanks to the battleship's big guns.
So why did the Navy never follow through with digitizing the battleship's big guns? I asked retired Navy Captain David Boslaugh, former director of the Navy Tactical Embedded Computer Program Office, that question. And if anyone would know, it's Boslaugh. He played a role in the development of the Navy Tactical Data System—the forerunner to today's Aegis systems, the mother of all digital sensor and fire control systems.
"At one time, my office was asked to do a study regarding upgrading the Iowa-class battleship fire control systems from analog to digital computers," Boslaugh replied. "We found that digitizing the computer would improve neither the reliability nor the accuracy of the system and recommended, 'Don't bother.'" Even without digital computers, the Iowa could fire 2,700-pound "dumb" shells nearly 30 miles inland with deadly accuracy, within a circle of probable error of around 80 meters. Some of its shells had circles of destruction larger than that.
Just how can a box of gears, cams, racks, and pins handle ballistics calculations based on differential equations with dozens of variables in real time? How does it manage to put a hunk of metal weighing as much as a Volkswagen Beetle on top of a target over the horizon in the first place? And how did this metal and grease out-calculate digital systems for so long? Let's start with a little bit of a history on battleship ballistics—complete with vintage Navy training films to show precisely how mechanical analog computing works.
Going ballistic
Shooting things with a gun from a ship is not exactly easy. In addition to the usual problems faced by ballistics—calculating how much bang to apply, how high to aim to reach a target at a certain range, how much to compensate for wind and the Coriolis effect—you have to take into account the fact that you're shooting from a platform that has constantly changing pitch, yaw, and position. If you're lucky enough to have a stationary target, the variables are still comparable to trying to hit something with a water balloon from the back of a hopping kangaroo.
Shooting things within sight of a ship is a feedback loop. Aim at the target, calculate its relative movement and other ballistic conditions, shoot, watch where the shot falls, and adjust. Shooting targets over the horizon is even trickier. It requires a forward observer who can give a precise geographic fix and then give corrections based on where shells land to walk them onto target.
In the days before turrets, ships fired guns in broadsides. Adjustments were generally made by where the shells fell and by waiting to fire until the side facing the enemy was on the upward side of a roll. But with the arrival of dreadnoughts and battle cruisers at the beginning of the 20th century, the range and lethality of ships' guns both rose dramatically. There was now a greater need for accuracy, too.
That need corresponded with the rise of analog computers. Mechanical analog computers were used by astronomers for centuries to predict star positions, eclipses, and the phases of the moon—the earliest known mechanical analog computer, called the Antikythera Mechanism, dated to 100 BC. But nobody got around to using computers to try to kill people until much later.
Analog computers use a common set of mechanical devices to do their calculations—the same sorts of devices that convert the torque created by a car's engine into turning wheels, lifting valves, and moving pistons. Data is "entered" into analog computers continuously, usually by the rotation of shaft inputs. A mathematical value is assigned to one full 360-degree rotation of the shaft.
In the days of the ancient Greeks, data entry was performed by turning a wheel. In more modern analog computers, variables from sensor data such as speed, direction, wind speed, and other factors were passed by electromechanical connections—synchro signals from gyrocompasses and gyroscopic "stable verticals," tracking systems, and speed sensors. Constants, like passing time, were input by special constant-speed electrical motors.
Connecting all the shafts together to turn them into a continuous set of calculation outputs is a collection of gears, cams, racks, pins, and other mechanical elements that translate motion into math through geometric and trigonometric principles. This is also done through "hard-coded" functions that store the results of more complex calculations in their precisely machined shapes. Working together, these parts instantaneously calculate a very precise answer to a very specific set of questions: where will the target be when the giant bullet I push out of a 68-foot long rifled barrel gets there, and where do I need to aim to get it there?
When assembled precisely, analog computers can be much more accurate than digital computers on these types of questions. Because they use physical rather than digital inputs and outputs, they can represent curves and other geometric elements of calculations with an infinite level of resolution (though the precision of those calculations is based on how well their parts are machined, and loss from friction and slippage). There are no least significant digits dropped, and answers are continuous rather than dependent on "for-next" clock-driven computing cycles.

Noce resigns as Chargers coach
Hillsdale College
HILLSDALE — For the first time in two decades, the Hillsdale College baseball team is searching for a new head man in the dugout.
Paul Noce has stepped down from his position as the head coach of the Chargers, the school announced Friday. He had been the longest-tenured current head coach of the Chargers at the time of his departure.
Hillsdale College Athletic Director Don Brubacher said a search for a new coach would begin immediately, and thanked Noce for his many years of service.
"In his 20 years at the college, Paul led his program with dignity and the highest degree of character," Brubacher said.
Noce took over the baseball program prior to the start of the 1994 season.
In his career, Noce had an overall record of 349-548-1, easily making him the winningest coach in Charger baseball history. He led Hillsdale to the 2003 GLIAC Tournament, and in 2013, took the program to its first 20-win season since 2005. Noce concluded his coaching tenure with the Chargers on a four-game winning streak.
Prior to his appointment at Hillsdale, Noce served as a roving instructor in the Pittsburgh Pirates' minor league system. He played professional baseball for the San Diego Padres, Chicago Cubs, and the Cincinnati Reds, including in when the Reds won the World Series.

Blqck Weathered Pottery Barn Dresser
Dressbarn.com is an online retailer of women's clothing. From 1962 to 2019, the brand was associated with Ascena's chain of women's clothing stores. It is now owned by Retail Ecommerce Ventures of Miami, Florida. This article will explain how to choose the best dressbarn for you. This article includes links to several online retailers. Before making a purchase, it is important to research the different retailers.
The company has been in existence since 1962 when its first store was opened in Philadelphia. The company went public 25 years ago. However, the family that founded it is still involved. The company has been reinvented many times over the years, including as a specialty retailer. However, it has always remained loyal to its core customers. As the company's new leaders, Vivian Behrens (senior vice president and chief market officer) and David Jaffe (CEO), were hired.
The company also uses email marketing and social media to engage customers. They host live fashion shows with employees and models. The company even hosts fashion bloggers to take over their social media feeds. These efforts are designed to give customers an authentic, in-person shopping experience. The company has seen a huge shift in consumer behavior and is refocusing its marketing efforts accordingly. The new strategy has helped the company's online presence reach new heights.
The store's name, "Dressbarn," is reminiscent of a barn in American culture. While the concept of a "dressbarn" has been around for decades, it is still somehow evocative of cow pies and cavernous spaces. It was surprising to discover that there weren't any floral options available at the time I visited, but the store was stocked with a job advertisement. I hope that this will change soon.
The company needed a bigger headquarters and a better distribution center as sales grew in the 1990s. In 1994, they moved to a new Suffern, New York facility. It was in this new facility that the company would continue to run. The facility would handle the company's entire distribution needs. It also housed the company's executive offices. The company was able start issuing its own credit card, which helped fuel its growth.
While its traditional brick-and-mortar locations have been impacted by the recession, Dressbarn has continued to grow despite the economic crisis. Despite the economic downturn, the company's revenue has increased by more than four-fold since it relaunched in April and is on track to hit $100 million in online sales in its first year. The company is clearly on the right track with its rapid growth rate.
Although Dressbarn has operated for decades, its current business model is not sustainable. Ascena Retail Group recently sold its Maurices division, OpCapita. The company's stores have not been profitable enough to justify this drastic measure. While these moves may be painful for consumers, the change is necessary for the company's long-term survival. So, it may be a good idea to visit one of the remaining retail banners.
Dress Barn, a successful online retailer, will offer affordable designer clothes at a discounted price to many women. Dress Barn has been in existence for over 50 years and is available at thousands of locations throughout the United States. Dress Barn has a wide range of clothing available for women at all stages of life. The company also bought other chains to expand its business. It has been one the most successful online fashion retailers for the past ten years. Its success is largely dependent on its product range and the quality of its service.
During the wind down process, customers can shop at Dressbarn's stores and its e-commerce site as usual. The brand's credit card will continue to be valid and will be honored. In addition, customers will be able to continue using their Dressbarn-branded credit cards until the wind down process is complete. Although the company has not yet announced any closure dates, it said that vendors and suppliers will continue receiving payment for their services.
Despite its success, Dressbarn's return policy is antiquated. The company will no longer accept returns, and customers are only offered gift certificates for unwanted items. In the meantime, Dressbarn will focus on work-from-home fashions and athleisure. Despite its shaky performance, the brand continues to stock popular items for its legacy customers. REV has recruited four former Dressbarn buyers who have a wealth of brand knowledge, sourcing experience, and a strong network.

Back on January 20th, my friend PuppyDoc (PhoebeMD.com) gave me the Blogger Recognition Award. Thank you so much for thinking of my blog Puppy!
It's now my job to recognize other blogs. I feel like I always post about certain blogs so today, I am posting about some of the blogs you may not have heard of:
Cocoa Bean Adventures – This is a fairly new blog about a pup named Cocoa and her mom, Julie. They are both SUPER nice.
Scarlybob's Blog – This blog is about two dogs named Kasper and Raiden. Their mom and dad work really hard teaching them tricks and you can find a lot of good information within their posts to help your own pups learn stuff.
Tales of Tucker – Some of you might remember Tucker from the Bath Contest. He was the lab who LOVED laying in the bath tub. Anywho, he's always good for a chuckle.
Love your dog – This is my friend Fredrieka. She always has something interesting going on.
Three Pups and a Couple of Kitties – This is a blog about my dear friend Ms. Margret's golden retrievers and kitties. I LOVE Ms. Margret to the moon and back. She is so kind to us. Please stop in and say hello if you haven't before.
I'm fairly certain I've told you how my blog started but the rules of the award tell me I must do it again:
Mom was browsing the web when she came across a video called, "Tiny Hamster Eating Tiny Burrito".
It wasn't the first time she had seen it and she was shocked that it had gone viral (last time we looked it had over 10 million views). She turned to Dad and said, "If a hamster can become famous for eating a burrito, I'm positive Noodle could become famous!"
That very same day, my blog was created. Thank you, Tiny Hamster!

Maia Szalavitz, co-author of Born for Love: Why Empathy Is Essential — and Endangered wrote an intriguing article, titled "How Not to Raise a Bully: The Early Roots of Empathy" in a recent issue of Time Magazine. Here are some excerpts.
* * *
Increasingly, neuroscientists, psychologists and educators believe that bullying and other kinds of violence can . . . be reduced by encouraging empathy at an early age. Over the past decade, research in empathy — the ability to put ourselves in another person's shoes — has suggested that it is key, if not the key, to all human social interaction and morality.
Without empathy, we would have no cohesive society, no trust and no reason not to murder, cheat, steal or lie. At best, we would act only out of self-interest; at worst, we would be a collection of sociopaths.
Although human nature has historically been seen as essentially selfish, recent science suggests that it is not. The capacity for empathy is believed to be innate in most humans, as well as some other species — chimps, for instance, will protest the unfair treatment of others, refusing to accept a treat they have rightfully earned if another chimp doing the same work fails to get the same reward.
The first stirrings of human empathy typically appear in babyhood: newborns cry when hearing another infant's cry, and studies have shown that children as young as 14 months offer unsolicited help to adults who appear to be struggling to reach something. Babies have also shown a distinct preference for adults who help rather than hinder others.
But like language, the development of this inherent tendency may be affected by early experience. As evidence, look no further than ancient Greece and the millennia-old child-rearing practices of Sparta and Athens. Spartans, who were celebrated almost exclusively as warriors, raised their ruling-class boys in an environment of uncompromising brutality — enlisting them in boot camp at age 7 and starving them to encourage enough deviousness and cunning to steal food, which skillfully bred yet more generations of ruthless killers.
In Athens, future leaders were brought up in a more nurturing and peaceful way, at home with their mothers and nurses, starting education in music and poetry at age 6. They became pioneers of democracy, art, theater and culture. "Just like we can train people to kill, the same is true with empathy. You can be taught to be a Spartan or an Athenian — and you can taught to be both," says Teny Gross, executive director of the outreach group Institute for the Study and Practice of Nonviolence in Providence, R.I., and a former sergeant in the Israeli army.
What the ancient Greeks intuited is supported by research today. Childhood — as early as infancy — is now known to be a critical time for the development of empathy. And although children can be astonishingly resilient, surviving and sometimes thriving despite abuse and neglect, studies show that those who experience such early trauma are at much greater risk of becoming aggressive or even psychopathic later on, bullying other children or being victimized by bullies themselves.
Simple neglect can be surprisingly damaging. In 2007, researchers published the first randomized, controlled study of the effect of being raised in an orphanage; that study, and subsequent research on the same sample of Romanian orphans, found that compared with babies placed with a foster family, those who were sent to institutions had lower IQs, slower physical growth, problems with human attachment and differences in functioning in brain areas related to emotional development.
Institutionalized infants do not experience being the center of a loving family's attention; instead, they are cared for by a rotating staff of workers, which is inherently neglectful. The infants miss out on intensive, one-on-one affection and attachment with a parental figure, which babies need at that vulnerable age. Without that experience, they learn early on that the world is a cold, insecure and untrustworthy place. Their emotional needs having gone unmet, they frequently have trouble understanding or appreciating the feelings of others.
Nearly 90% of brain growth takes place in the first five years of life, and the minds of young children who have been neglected or traumatized often fail to make the connection between people and pleasure. That deficit can make it difficult for them to feel or demonstrate love later on. "You can enhance empathy by the way you treat children," says Martin Hoffman, an emeritus professor of psychology at New York University and a pioneer of empathy research, "or you can kill it by providing a harsh punitive environment."

Treasures: Is this piece an example of 'Chinese Lowestoft'?
Dear Helaine and Joe:
I have a porcelain plate and have been unable to identify the markings on the back. I wonder if the piece is Japanese Imari or Chinese Lowestoft.
Thank you,
L.D., Chicago
Dear L.D.:
What a proverbial blast from the past. We have not heard the term "Chinese Lowestoft" in years -- literally -- and thought it might be fun to explore this subject. It comes under the heading of "Oops! How did they get that so wrong?"
We should start by saying that the town of Lowestoft is located in Suffolk on the east coast of England. In the mid-18th century, it was a small fishing village, but in 1756, clay deposits were discovered on an estate just north of town by Hewlin Luson.
These deposits were determined to be suitable for the making of pottery, but Luson was not able to get production under way. The next year, 1757, a different partnership (not including Luson) was formed that managed to make a type of artificial porcelain called "soft paste."
True Chinese-style "hard paste" porcelain is made from a mixture of "china clay" (kaolin) and "china stone" (petuntse). But the secret of this mixture was known only to the Chinese and the Germans at this time so the English (and the French, and the Italians) had to cheat and make their porcelain either by adding soapstone, glass or bone ash (thus the term "bone china") to white clay.
It has been reported that Lowestoft's formula included about 20 percent bone ash (we have also seen higher estimates), and most of their wares were naively painted in blue in imitation of the Chinese manner. The factory closed in 1802 (one source says it was 1799), but Lowestoft did not disappear into obscurity -- as it might have.
In his 1863 book "Marks and Monograms on European and Oriental Pottery and Porcelain," author William Chaffers made a colossal boo-boo when he identified Chinese Export wares as having been made at the Lowestoft factory. As a result, for the next hundred years or so, the name "Lowestoft" was erroneously connected to Chinese Export porcelain as "Oriental Lowestoft" or "Chinese Lowestoft." Now, this mistake has largely faded from memory -- but every now and then the term will turn up.
Luckily, the piece in today's question is easily identified and it is not any kind of "Lowestoft." Instead, it is a very nice example of Japanese Imari from the late 19th or early 20th century. In the photographs it looks like it might be a "charger" or large plate used for display in a variety of locations (including Japanese shop windows).
The design looks a bit like a "sansai" or "Old Japan"-style piece, but probably it is not because it has too many colors (sansai is only red and blue with gilt highlights). This piece is probably "nishikide" or "brocade" Imari, which can have a variety of colors, including blue, brick red, black, green, lemon yellow and purple -- and this color palette seems to be found on this dish.
"Imari" refers to Japanese wares exported to the West from the port of Imari, but most of this ware was made in and around the town of Arita. It is a shame that we cannot appraise this piece, because we do not know the size -- but a small example should be valued for less than $125 while a larger one might be insured for closer to $1,000 or a little more.
Oh, the squiggles on the back that L.D. thought might be marks are not. They are just more decoration, and the piece is completely unmarked as most Imari examples are.

MUMMA, GORDON: Studio Retrospect
1959 -1984, 6 pieces by the legendary Gordon Mumma, much heard of but not much heard (unfotunately). These are pieces made for dance, but work excellently alone. Mumma was one of the non-aligned sonic investigators (like Tudor, he was someone who liked to roll up his sleeves and solder, wiring experimental circuits and then running them). The pieces here range from roaring planes and smoke through spacious zen garden episodes and from bowed psaltery and bandoneon through to collected and synthesised sounds. A wide and panoramic collection that explores sound intelligently and closely that should be in any comprehensive collection.

1 p.m. Wednesday. A church book club I attend is reading seven Chekhov short stories in April. The group chose a 1,104-page Stephen King novel in March. Chekhov should be easy compared with It.
5:30 p.m. Wednesday. My library has several collections of Chekhov's work, but none has all the stories I need: "Peasants," "The Bride," "The Bishop," "About Love," "A Visit to Friends," "The Lady With the Little Dog" and "The House With the Mezzanine."
Out of sheer loyalty I pick up Constance Garnett's 1962 translation of 15 stories. I owe a lot to Constance for her translations of War and Peace and Anna Karenina, the first I read. Many libraries purge books that haven't been checked out in a while to make room for new ones. I feel I must support Constance by checking out her translation – even though I probably won't read it – to keep her spot from going to a Mitch Albom novel.
I also get from the library two books that, between them, have three kinds of tape peeling from their spines: duct, clear and Scotch. They give Chekhov's name as "Tchehov" and "Tchekoff" and have cream-colored pockets in the back. The three books I check out have only one of the stories I need, "The Bishop."
10 p.m. Wednesday. Search the Web for the six other Chekhov stories. Get distracted by John Gross's fine review of V.S. Pritchett's Chekhov: A Sprit Set Free in the New York Times. Gross writes:
"It is as a story writer, in Sir Victor's view, that Chekhov stands supreme. He is unhappy to see the stories overshadowed by the plays, as they tend to be nowadays — they seem to him far richer in texture; and to a considerable extent his book is an attempt to redress the balance."
Gross adds:
"If you want to sample [Pritchett's] quality, try his account of 'The Bishop' (one of Chekhov's finest achievements — it reads, he observes, 'like a sustained anthem' to the writer's own death).'"
Must have Chekhov: A Spirit Set Free by the late Sir Victor, a brilliant critic and perhaps the nearest English counterpart to Edmund Wilson.
Thursday, 4 p.m. The library doesn't have Chekhov: A Sprit Set Free. But it does have Pritchett's Complete Collected Essays, which has 10 pages on Chekhov. The book has 1,319 pages, only 215 more than It, and is one of my favorite books of criticism. How can I resist? I check it out along with a) the volume on Chekhov in the Twayne's World Authors Series of brief critical studies, and b) Philip Callow's Chekhov: The Hidden Ground, the only biography at the library that analyzes most of the stories on my list.
I now have six books about Chekhov but only one of the stories I need.
Thursday, 5:30 p.m. Visit a tiny but wonderful independent bookstore. It has two fine Chekhov collections: The Portable Chekhov, edited by Avrahm Yarmolinksy, and Peasants and Other Stories, nine tales selected and introduced by Edmund Wilson. I want the Wilson. But it's a hardcover book that seems to have only one story I need apart from "The Bishop." (Later I find out that it has "The Bride," too, under an alternate title, "Betrothed," and is available in paperback.) I buy The Portable Chekhov, which has The Cherry Orchard, seven letters and 28 stories, four of them on my list.
Yarmolinksy says in his introduction:
"The most characteristic of Chekhov's stories lack purely narrative interest. They no more bear retelling than does a poem. Nothing thrilling happens in them, nor are the few reflective passages particularly compelling. Some of the tales, having neither beginning nor end, are, as Galsworthy put it, 'all middle like a tortoise.'"
This does not diminish their impact, Yarmolinsky suggests:
"A man of sober and naturalistic temperament, Chekhov was dogged by the thought that our condition in this uncomfortable world is a baffling one. He liked to say that there was no understanding it. And, indeed, his writings heighten that sense of the mystery of life which is one of the effects of all authentic literature."
Thursday, 11 p.m. Read "The Bishop," the story of the last week in the life of a bishop. The bishop rejoices when his mother, whom he has not seen in years, visits during Holy Week. Yet her presence recalls a time when his position had not set him apart and he could unburden his heart to others. At vespers, he listens to chanting of monks:
"He sat by the altar where the shadows were deepest, and was swept in imagination back into the days of his childhood and youth, when he had first heard these words sung. The tears trickled down his cheeks, and he meditated on how he had attained everything in life that it was possible for a man in his position to attain; his faith was unsullied; and yet all was not clear to him; something was lacking, and he did not want to die. It seemed to him that he was leaving unfound the most important thing of all. Something of which he had dimly dreamed in the past, hopes that had thrilled his heart as a child, a schoolboy, and traveler in foreign lands, troubled him still.
Callow calls the tale "a parable of repressed love," yet there is more to it than that Freudian interpretation might imply. It implicitly asks: What is life "about"? Most short stories are about a community of people. No matter how beautifully they evoke it, they stop there. "The Bishop" goes deeper. It may read like "a sustained anthem" to Chekhov's death, but its song is not that of its author alone.
Saturday, 10 a.m. I still have only five of the stories I need. But if I read only "The Bishop," I can stop right there with a profit. It would be a brilliant idea for any book club to read to read even two or three Chekhov stories instead of a novel at a meeting.
The quote from "The Bishop" comes from Russian Silhouettes: More Stories of Russian Life (Scribner's, 1915), translated by Marian Fell. The full text of the Fell translation of the story appears here www.ibiblio.org/eldritch/ac/bishop.html.

The Dow stock market index closed above 14,000 for the first time since before the financial crisis rocked the world economy.
Propelled by strong auto sales and optimism about U.S. jobs, the Dow Jones industrial average crossed the line early Friday and continued flirting with the mark all day. The other major stock indexes also rose.
The Dow was up 149 points to 14,010. It's gained 6.9% this year. The Standard & Poor's 500 rose 15 to 1,513. The Nasdaq composite index added 37 to 3,179.
The government jobs report that pushed stocks forward was mixed. The U.S. said it added 157,000 jobs in January, in line with expectations. But unemployment inched up to 7.9%.

"I will insist the Hebrews have [contributed] more to civilize men than any other nation. If I was an atheist and believed in blind eternal fate, I should still believe that fate had ordained the Jews to be the most essential instrument for civilizing the nations … They are the most glorious nation that ever inhabited this Earth. The Romans and their empire were but a bubble in comparison to the Jews. They have given religion to three-quarters of the globe and have influenced the affairs of mankind more and more happily than any other nation, ancient or modern."
– John Adams, Second President of the United States
(From a letter to F. A. Van der Kemp [Feb. 16, 1808] Pennsylvania Historical Society)
This past Monday, I had the pleasure of visiting the offices of Kestenbaum and Company, Auctioneers of Rare Books, Manuscripts, Fine Art and Vintage Wines. Whether you spent any portion of your life learning, or if you merely just wondered about the chain of history of our sacred literature, this auction will forever change your outlook! To know that the chain is unbroken, like a spine, intact through generations, is affirming and so powerful as if I felt tradition coursing thorough my veins with each turn of carefully preserved page…
I started my journey into seforim history with Daniel Bomberg's 4 volume TaNa"CH or Biblia Rabbinica (Lot 71)…
The Catalog appraises it between $50,000 to $70,000 and describes it thus, on page 23:
The first Rabbinic Bible to present the Massorah. The Text of this edition became the standard Massoretic text for all subsequent editions. See D. S. Berkowitz, In Rememberance of Creation (1968) no 166.
The first Biblia Rabbinica printed by Bomberg in 1516-17 was edited by the apostate Jew Felix Pratensis and contained the Imprimatur of the Pope. Bomberg quickly realized that these two facts marginalized the Great Bible from the Jewish market. Bomber therefore employed Jacob b. Chaim ibn Adonijah, newly arrived in Venice (after being driven out from Spain and then Tunis), as editor of the Second Biblia Rabbinica. A meticulous and most knowledgeable Jewish editor, Jacob ben Chaim went to great pains to secure as many codices with a Massorah as possible. For the first time, there was issued a printed Hebrew Bible with a marginal Massorah, which, as hoped by Bomberg, was received with acclaim by the Jewish market. THUS THIS BIBLE MAY BE SAID TO THE THE FIRST JEWISH RABBINIC BIBLE…
It comes with Targum Onkeles, commentaries by RaSH"I, ibn Ezra, Kimchi and more.
I stood in awe as I held the second printed edition of the Shulchan Aruch (Lot 185)…
Printed in Venice in 1567 by Giovanni Griffo, with all four parts in one volume and four title pages The final leaf has the signatures of the censors. Dampstained and with yellowing pages, it was rebound in elaborately blind-tooled morocco. Priced at $10,000.00 to $12,000.00
Next I saw the first editions of R. Yisroel Meir Kagan of Radin's Chofetz Chaim and Shmiras Haloshon…
The Chofetz Chaim was printed in 1873 and priced between $2000 to $3000, while Shmiras Haloshon was printed in 1876 and goes for $1000 to $1500. Both texts are First Editions.
With Pessach just around the corner how could I not look at the Haggadot?
Starting with the magnificent Haggada illustrated by Arthur Szyk (Lot 146)…
Published in London in 1939-40, it has a dedication to King George VI of England, it's priced between $30,000 to $40,000. The Times Literary Supplement described it as "…one of the most beautiful works ever produced by human hands… Szyk's Haggadah stands among Hebrew illuminated manuscripts, in a moment of time, for all time, in a class by itself."
From left to right in the above photo:
First edition of Isaac Chayut's Siyach Yitzchok, published in 1587 (Lot 102), it goes for $800 to $1200
A series of kabbalistic poems with commentary, all of whose themes relate to the First Night of Passover, including instructions and laws pertaining to the Seder.
On the right, we have an Haggadah with the Abarbanel's commentary (Zevach Pessach), printed in 1561 in Rivo di Trento (Italy) by Jacob Marcaria. Marcaria, the catalog tells us, was a physician and scholar who published books in all branches of Judaica, often adding his own scholarly prefaces. It is listed as being in the $4000 to $6000 range
With the hundreds of sfarim and secular books and kisvey yad I saw on display, it was very hard to decide which ones I would include in this first installment. Needless to say, this will be a multi-part series.
Before closing this post and considering the auction is to take place today at 3:00 pm at Kestenbaum and Company (242 West 30th Street; New York, NY 10001 – Tel: 212.366..1197) I can only say that having spent parts of my life learning from some of this very same sforim (albeit in modern editions!), it would be hard for me to understand if at least most of the items are not bought by those who know that their value is far beyond the price they command. It was with deep emotion (which still overwhelms me as I write) that I (and every yid, who spent/spends time learning) beheld this collection… Why? Because the worth of these items lies far deeper than in being early editions, they represent our very faith as Jews, they represent our universal truth, they summarize the values that define us!

A man often called "England's best living poet" returns with a collection that includes appreciations of Cesare Pavese, Hart Crane and Jimi Hendrix
Without Title. By Geoffrey Hill. Yale University Press, 96 pp., $26, cloth; $16, paperback.
By Janice Harayda
Many people call Geoffrey Hill "England's best living poet." Donald Hall, the U.S. poet laureate, says he may be "the greatest English poet since George Herbert."
Then why is Hill less famous than other poets of his vanishing generation, including Ted Hughes and Philip Larkin? One answer is that, in some ways, he makes more demands on you. His poems are so dense and full of pentimento effects that he has more in common with T.S. Eliot than with Hughes or Larkin. Hill may have made fewer concessions to popular tastes than any living writer. And the pattern holds in Without Title. The rhymes of his earlier books have all but disappeared, though not his use of iambic meter and classical forms (which include, in this book, Pindaric odes). He acknowledges his reluctance to dumb-down his poems in "Discourse: For Stanley Rosen":
I tell myself
don't wreck a good phrase simply to boost sense —
Yet, in the same poem, he suggests that even high standards may not be enough:
So few of us absolved when what we write
sets us to rights on some scale of justice.
Hill sets the tone of Without Title in its first poem, "Improvisation on 'O Welt ich muss dich lassen'" ("O world, I must leave you"), a meditation on the tune that inspired a Bach chorale. The first word of that poem – and the book — is German (traurig or "sorrowful"). Then he's off to the races, salting his book with words or phrases from at least a half dozen languages — German, French, Italian, Latin, Greek and Hebrew – and references drawn from more than a thousand years of literary history. His English is similarly high-altitude. Without Title teems with words like "atrorubent," "barathea," "Pasiphaean," "haruspex," "pleach-toned" and "shotten."
At the core of the book lies a deep awareness of the weight of mortality – Hill's and others' – suggested by that "O world, I must leave you." Nearly a third of it consists of dialogues with two poets who committed suicide, Cesare Pavese and Hart Crane. And it has a three-page elegy for Jimi Hendrix whose death – although not officially ruled a suicide – involved some ambiguity on that count.
Yet these poems are too firmly entwined with Hill's Christian roots to deny all hope. If they are at times sorrowful, they not cynical. One of the best poems, "Epiphany at Saint Mary and All Saints," begins:
The wise men, vulnerable in ageing plaster,
are borne as gifts
to be set down among other treasures
in their familial strangeness, mystery's toys.
This quatrain is fresh and memorable partly because inverts the traditional image: The wise men who once brought gifts to the Christ Child are themselves "borne as gifts." And if they are "vulnerable," they are not shattered or absent. A more dogmatic or conventionally religious poet might have gone on to try to persuade us that mystery can survive in an age that reduces it to toys. But in the last line of the poem, Hill surprises us again. He tells us: "The night air sings a colder spell to come."
Best line: From "Insert Here": "Let me be, says the dying man, let me fall / upwards toward my roots."
Worst line: Hill verges on bathos in an elegy for Jimi Hendrix, a user of LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide), that casts the guitarist's life as a Greek tragedy with hallocinogens. The word lysergic, Hill tells is, "also is made up Greek."
Consider reading instead: Geoffrey Hill's New and Collected Poems: 1952-1992 (Mariner, 2000) would make a better introduction to Hill's work for most readers, partly because it is stylistically and thematically broader.
Caveat lector: This review was based on the advance readers' edition. Some material in the finished book may differ.
Furthermore: In the context of this collection, Without Title may refer to an honorific, the name of a literary work or a property title (perhaps the most fitting sense of the phrase, given that many poems deal with losing a purchase on life). It may also refer to the title of Britain's poet laureate, which Hill has never held.

Boston Bombings Edge Into U.S. Immigration Debate in Congress
An already contentious immigration bill became the lightning rod for more controversy on Friday when a senior Republican U.S. senator linked the measure to the Boston Marathon bombings and the hunt for the two ethnic Chechen suspects.
"Given the events of this week, it is important for us to understand the gaps and loopholes in our immigration system," Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa said.
Grassley, an opponent of past immigration proposals in Congress, spoke at the start of a congressional hearing on legislation unveiled earlier this week that would give 11 million people living illegally in the United States a chance at citizenship.
As the hearing got under way, much of Boston and its surrounding areas were under lockdown as police searched for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, one of two brothers suspected to have carried out the attack in Boston on Monday that killed three and injured 176 people.
His older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was killed overnight in a shootout with police.
The brothers trace their roots to the predominantly Muslim regions of Russia's Caucasus. School officials in Dagestan, a province that borders the breakaway republic of Chechnya, said the family had left for the United States in 2002 after arriving the previous year from Kyrgyzstan as refugees.
U.S. officials said the two suspects were in the United States legally.
"How can we beef up security checks on people who enter the United States? How do we ensure that people who wish to do us harm are ineligible for benefits under immigration laws, including this new bill before us," said Grassley, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Following the hearing, committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, a Democrat, was asked about Grassley's comments and whether they could impede progress on the immigration bill that Democrats want to pass in the Senate sometime in June.
Referring to past attacks in the United States, Leahy responded: "If we change the policies of this country every time something happens, whether it's Oklahoma City, 9/11 or this, we're never going to do anything. We should think about what are the best policies for the United States and use those."
Long before the twin bombings at the finish line of the famous Boston foot race, some conservatives in Congress had outlined several lines of attack against the much-anticipated Senate immigration bill, which has bipartisan support and is backed by President Barack Obama.
Republican Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama argued that the bill would hurt the U.S. economy by further straining federal benefit programs and exacerbating job shortages. The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office is assessing the economic impact.
At Friday's hearing, Peter Kirsanow, a member of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, which advises on civil rights policy and enforcement of laws, testified that giving legal status to 11 million undocumented people would allow them to "leapfrog" American citizens in low-skilled jobs, including blacks who face higher unemployment rates than the national average.
"We've got millions upon millions of Americans, not just black Americans … who don't have a job right now," said Kirsanow, who was appointed in 2006 by then-President George W. Bush, a Republican.
Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, a sponsor of the immigration bill, countered that foreign labor already dominates the workforce at meat-packing plants and peach farms in his home state. "There are certain parts of this economy, you are not going to find an American worker no matter what you do," Graham said.
Other senators said legalizing the 11 million would boost their pay, raising wages for Americans in low-skilled jobs.
During the hearing, Democratic Senator Charles Schumer of New York, a leading proponent of the bill, said: "I'd like to ask that all of us not jump to conclusions regarding events in Boston or try to equate those events with this legislation."
Schumer added, "In general we are a safer country when law enforcement knows who is here, has their fingerprints, photos, etcetera, has the background checks" on foreigners in the United States.
The bill, which was written by four Republican and four Democratic senators, would also spend about $6.5 billion more on U.S. border security and implement other measures to clamp down on companies hiring illegal workers while also imposing stricter methods of tracking those who enter and leave the United States.
Republican Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, a Cuban-American and possible 2016 presidential candidate, is one of the sponsors of the legislation, which has been attacked by some conservatives. Rubio was backed by the conservative Tea Party movement when he was first elected to the Senate in 2010.
On Friday, conservative political commentator Ann Coulter referred to the killing of one of the suspected Boston bombers, writing in a tweet: "It's too bad Suspect Number One won't be able to be legalized by Marco Rubio now."
Alex Conant, a Rubio spokesman, said there are "legitimate policy questions to ask and answer about what role our immigration system played, if any, in what happened" in Boston.
But he added, "Americans will reject any attempt to tie the terrorists responsible for the attacks in Boston with the millions of decent, law-abiding immigrants currently living in the U.S. and those hoping to immigrate here in the future."

Dealing with snow and wind damage
Landscape Logic
Vail, CO Colorado
We may not always hug them, but we do love our trees.
Trees are an aesthetic aspect of any landscape, but they're more than pretty faces. They provide shade and keep buildings cool, they clean the air of toxins and they produce much of the oxygen that we breathe.
They're also one of the most costly components on our properties.
Consequently, we need to understand what threatens them most during the winter – namely wind and snow that bend, uproot, break and split many trees each year. Falling limbs and uprooted trees can cause property damage and be a liability for property owners.
While young trees typically do not sustain serious damage, mature deciduous trees not only can be seriously damaged but have problems that might not be obvious.
Support Local Journalism
Be wary of cracks and splits in the limbs. Broken limbs pose grave threats to people and property. Often, split limbs may be hanging on by a thread, so to speak, and these "hangers" may not be so readily noticed.
A little more wind or snow falling on them can send them crashing. If there has been some obvious damage to a tree, it's wise to look for more closely for hangers.
Cracked limbs can also be difficult to see. One telltale sign that a tree limb has cracked is that the limb bends down from the snow and doesn't pop back up to its original position. Often cracked limbs can be detected because they will rest on a limb below.
Will the branch live or die?
Most cracked branches will continue to live. In spite of the cracks, nutrients will still move through the branch to keep offshoot branches and leaves alive. The tree will try to callous over the wound to "heal," but the bark will not grow back together and the limb will never return to its previous state.
Like Humpty Dumpty, it can't be made whole again, and that is the problem.
From this point forward, a cracked limb will remain a hazard due to untreatable structural weakness. Future snow loads and/or wind can cause it to break at any time. If that does not happen, continuing growth will add more weight to the limb and continue to stress it to the breaking point.
Split trunks, large branches
High winds and snow loads can also cause tree trunks or branches to split vertically, or even uproot the tree. As with broken limbs, splits can be hazardous and need to be dealt with right away.
Simply sawing off a limb behind the break won't be aesthetically pleasing or healthy for the tree. That's why it's critical to call in a qualified arborist or maintenance professional to remove broken limbs so that they are cut properly for the long-term health of the tree.
If you have large deciduous trees, consider having them inspected to determine whether you have hazard limbs. Play it safe and remove snow and wind-damaged limbs before they become a liability.

Hairdresser comes to elderly client's rescue
Marblehead woman stuck at bottom of stairs after fall
A hairdresser came to the rescue of an elderly client in Marblehead after the woman failed to show up for her weekly salon appointment.
The 82-year-old woman was supposed to have a 3 p.m. appointment at Boston Hair Salon last Thursday with stylist Lisa Buswell, who has been seeing the woman at the same time every week for the past seven years, the Salem News reported.
When the woman didn't show up, Buswell called her home several times, but there was no answer. She then called a former neighbor to go check on the woman.
The neighbor saw the woman's car in her driveway, and was able to enter the home through an unlocked door.
He found the woman at the bottom of the stairs. She said she had fallen the day before, and was there for 29 hours, the newspaper reported.
She suffered a fractured leg and hip and broken bones and was taken to Salem Hospital, where she is recovering from surgery.
