American Academy in Rome Opens Exhibition by Influential Michigan Artist Collective/Band Destroy All Monsters
DAM created unorthodox music inspired by The Stooges, Albert Ayler, Sun Ra, the Velvet Underground and Sci-Fi B movies.
Hungry for Death, an exhibition of ephemera culled from the archive of Destroy All Monsters (DAM), an influential Michigan artist collective/band that included Mike Kelley, Cary Loren, Niagara, and Jim Shaw, and others will be presented by the DEPART Foundation, NERO Magazine and the American Academy in Rome May 13-June 10, 2010.
DAM created unorthodox music inspired by The Stooges, Albert Ayler, Sun Ra, the Velvet Underground and Sci-Fi B movies. The exhibition celebrates DAMs vision and outsider beliefs and conveys the influences that drove DAMs artistic expression by presenting posters, flyers, photographs, blueprints, drawings, banners, magazines, and records produced in the 1970s and additional material produced for their reunion in 1996. Hungry for Death is curated by James Hoff and Cary Loren.
In the spring of 2011 in Rome, the DEPART Foundation will present California Dreaming, an exhibition about the contemporary Californian art scene curated by Michael Ned Holte and Aram Moshayed. Hungry for Death is a prelude to this upcoming exhibition because it features two of the most prominent representatives of the contemporary Californian art scene Mike Kelley and Jim Shaw.
Destroy All Monsters
Formed at a house party in 1973, Destroy All Monsters played their first gig at a comic book conventionwhere they were asked to leave after ten minutesusing prepared guitars, a drum machine, tape loops, and various other instruments. Operating in this capacity through 1976, the band's music was accompanied by performances and films as well as a magazine of the same name (which Cary Loren edited through 1979), consisting mostly of collages and prints inspired by sci-fi movies, underground music, political subcultures, and iconic elements of 60s counterculture as it had filtered through to the collective's hometown of Ann Arbor, Michigan. After the departure of Mike Kelley and Jim Shaw in 1976, Rom Asheton (The Stooges) and Michael Davis (MC5) joined the band and Destroy All Monsters entered a second, punk phase that met with popular success with singles such as Bored/Youre Gonna Die. In 1995, the original members staged a reunion tour, and since then have appeared in various exhibitions and music festivals. Among the exhibitions in which Destroy All Monsters have been included are: "Theater Without Theater", MOCBA, Barcelona, Spain, (2007); "Sympathy for the Devil: Art and Rock and Roll Since 1967", MCA Chicago (2007); "Exhibition and archives" at the Magasin Center for Contemporary Art in Grenoble, France, (2006); and "Art>Music (rock, pop, techno)" at Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, Australia (2001). At the invitation of Ben Schot and Ronald Corneilson for the "I Rip You, You Rip Me" festival and seminar at the Boijman's Museum in Rotterdam, DAM began work on the installation and film known as "Strange Früt: Rock Apochrypha an investigation of Detroit culture". This exhibition was shown and completed in 2000 at COCA (Center on Contemporary Art) in Seattle, WA., and in 2001 at the DAM Collective: Artists Take On Detroit at the Detroit Institute of Arts. This work was also selected for inclusion in the 2002 Whitney Biennial of Art in NYC. In 2006, the "Strange Früt" exhibition and the bands archives traveled to the Magasin Center for Contemporary Art in Grenoble, France.
Destroy All Monsters performed at the "All Tomorrow's Parties" festivals in Los Angeles as guest artists of Sonic Youth, and in London, UK as guest artists selected by Jake and Dinos Chapman. With the invitation of Ben Schot and Ronald Corneilson for the "I Rip You, You Rip Me" festival and seminar at the Boijman's Museum in Rotterdam, DAM began work on the installation and film known as Strange Früt: Rock Apochrypha an investigation of Detroit culture.

things made thinkableAbout
I like to think that if only we could see things more clearly – if only we could think things more clearly – we might make less of a mess of things.
That's what things made thinkable is all about, making things more thinkable, in the hope that this might help us to make things better.
Each of the presentations is designed to engage the mind as well as the eye. Don't just see things differently, think things differently.
things made thinkable is written and designed by the author and (on a good day) thinker Mark Jeffery.

I agree. Changing a defensive system every four years is what teams do that consistently lose or are medicore. Like the Redskins. Stability and consistency breed success. The Redskins committed to a 3-4 and that should be the long term plan. Most of the defensive personnel were kicked out of here in favor of guys that can play the 3-4. What are we going to do? Another roster overhaul and another three year window?
I personally do not believe Haslett will or should go anywhere. Haslett took over a 4-3 defense and made it a 3-4 defense. He struggled in his first season because he had 4-3 personnel, ranking 30th in defense. Last year, after getting some personnel that fit the system, the defense jumped to 11. He coached a great game against Drew Brees and the Saints. He had a bad game against the Rams. I think everyone is overreacting. If this becomes a pattern, then that is on Haslett. However, he had a great defensive performance Week one, poor defensive performance week 2. Let's see what he has done to right the ship in Week 3 before sending him off to be lynched. Come on guys, we are not a weekly, fickle fan base are we? Oh wait . . .
One thing Haslett has going against him, besides injuries, is the fact the front office did a horrible job building pass defense. The corners and safeties are a mess. That is on Bruce Allen and Mike Shanahan.

Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker is
Returning to Morgantown with 20th Anniversary Production!
The special 20th Anniversary production of Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker in 2012 overflows with a spectacular new "Dove of Peace," where 2 dancers become one stunning bird, inspired by the early works of Stanislov Vlasov, original choreographer and director of Moscow Ballet's inaugural Great Russian Nutcracker. The production also features a Christmas tree that grows to 7 stories tall; falling snow and Troika-styled sleigh escorted by Russian folk characters Ded Moroz (Father Christmas) and Snegurochka (Snow Maiden); towering hand-made silk puppets; 200 all new, lavish costumes; and 9 hand-painted backdrops, all set to Pyotr Tchaikovsky's complete Nutcracker Suite score.
For 20 years, Great Russian Nutcracker performances have featured the finest Russian ballerinas and danseurs. From former Bolshoi soloist Stanislov Vlasov and partner Lilia Sabitova (People's Artist of Russia) in 1993 to the classic Marina Alexandrova and Vitaly Zabelin in 1996; danseur and upstart choreographer Anatolie Emelianov and Honored Artist of Russia Tatiana Predenia in 2002; Varna IBC Gold Medalists Cristina and Alexei Terentiev in 2006; and award winning partners Karyna Shatkovskaya and Vladimir Tkachenko in 2011. Moscow Ballet's Great Russian Nutcracker celebrates 20 years of soaring holiday spirit!

January 12, 2006 Urban Word of the Day
A girl who is exclusively after a free meal or an expensive gift. She actively seeks out dates with well-off men who will wine and dine her at upscale restaurants. She is usually physically attractive enough to make the man fall for her feminine wiles. She will rarely have sex with these men, until they spend a certain number of dollars on her. Nobody knows exactly what that number is, so the man keeps spending and spending, while the dinner whore keeps living it up. As a mere graduate student living on a stipend, it is impossible to find a date in New York, as it is saturated with dinner whores.
2. | dinner whore | ||
I propose this definition as a challenge to the first definition, which, although substantially correct, is not entirely accurate. A dinner whore is a woman who accepts high-priced dinner dates from successful men with the knowledge that she has little, if any, romantic or sexual interest in them. Nevertheless, the dinner whore accepts these dates knowing full well that the invitation is motivated exclusively by the man's interest in a romantic or sexual relationship with her. The dinner whore is usually of upper middle-class birth, although the genus has been known to comprise the occasional middle-class aspirant. The dinner whore is almost always of average or better aesthetic merits yet tends to regard herself as more attractive than she actually is. She is rarely a knockout but is almost always well manicured and has invested substantial time, money, and effort in seeking to maximize what physical gifts she has been given. The dinner whore is usually youthful (21-35) and is most active between ages 24 and 30. She dwells in all climates and locales but is most often found in a metropolis, with most concentrated in or around New York City and Los Angeles. She has fairly eclectic appetites but evinces a general predisposition to doctors, lawyers, investment bankers, and other men who are associated, however ambiguously, with the world of finance.
Although it is commonly assumed that the dinner whore's primary aim is to obtain a high-priced dinner for nothing, th... |
3. | Dinner Whore | ||
Priya. A Priya is a woman who will stop at nothing to get a free meal, be it a cookie or a full-course dinner at a fancy restaurant. My date last night was such a dinner whore! She was all over the free breadsticks!
4. | dinner whore | ||
A woman who pretends to be attracted to a man in order to receive free dinner from him.///////////////
The smart man will neither date nor speak unnecessarily to a known dinner whore, such as Ms. Lisa of Michigan.////////////////
5. | Dinner Whore | ||
A dinner whore is a woman who dates a man to get free meals from him even though she has little or no physical attraction to the man. After several dates and moderately priced meals, as a minimum, the dinner whore is not intimate. Not even a kiss is extended.
6. | Dinner Whore | ||
A female who excepts a date with no intention of furthering the relationship, but does intend on obtaining a free dinner. Dude that girl I went out with last night was such a Dinner whore, I didn't get any.
7. | dinner whore | ||
1. A dinner whore is a complement to a dinner john. A dinner whore trades a dinner, which is paid for by a poor or unattractive person, with the privilege of being seen in public with them. Being seen in public with an attractive woman (or man) raises a man's (or woman's) SMV. What men who think they can buy the dinner whore's attentions beyond the dinner, or the unfortunate poor and/or unattractive men (or women), don't seem to realize is that it's an even trade. They are not -- I repeat, not -- getting gypped.
2. A dinner whore is a very attractive and charming woman (or man) who will never sleep with any person who thinks their sexual favors can be purchased through buying one or more dinners, aka a dinner john. 1. Unfortunately the dinner john was unable to see that he was actually paying to be seen in public with the dinner whore, not making installments on any future sexual favors.
2. No matter how many dinners the dinner john bought for Sally, the dinner whore, there was no getting over the fact that his expectation that he could buy her sexual favors was the very reason she would never sleep with him. |

Welcome to Everspring Health
Welcome to Everspring Health a new lifestyle, health and healing cooperative serving Minneapolis, St. Paul and the greater Twin Cities metro area. Our focus is on developing a community healthcare resource where health, wellness and quality of life are the same ambition of holistic (whole life) health and healing programs. Everspring practitioners serve as your advocate for better quality of life and more effective use of health and healing resources. Everspring Health's programs are custom designed to each individual's needs, including supporting any current medical program, but specifically designed to accomplish your goals for improved quality of life. Direct clinic service resources may include acupuncture, tuina medical massage (acupressure), dietary therapy, herbal therapy, exercise therapy and lifestyle consulting. Our services are available to the general public and we are currently accepting cooperative memberships for those interested in supporting our mission and benefiting from more convenient access to service.
2012 has been a big year for us as we work to expand our membership and grow into the full capacity our model is designed to embrace. Our ambition is to continue to expand our service offering to present the next generation of integrated qualified medical services including chiropractic and physical therapy among many more supportive health services to the Minneapolis/St. Paul communities. If healthcare is to truly be revolutionized it must be begin with the partnership between the practitioner and the client. We are the first of a kind healthcare cooperative where health advocacy is the core around which we will build the model for the next era in healthcare. We are looking forward to offering daily living programs (yoga, tai chi/qi gong, meditation, cooking classes, biking/hiking trips, retreats, etc.) via our Everspring Living resources bringing our model closer to the lives of our clients.
Examples of our programs
Detailed constitution based daily living programs – Everyone has certain tendencies or patterns from which they approach most daily practices. These tendencies are what make each individual unique with regards to their talents and capabilities but they also tend to lead towards most of the chronic symptoms and disease patterns as well. By identifying and helping our clients understand their constitution they can begin to understand their own tendencies thus allowing for their talents to be maximized all the while tendencies for illness can be significantly reduced. This then begins the practice of actual preventive medicine, where quality of life care becomes a practical principled system from which to work rather than just throwing darts in the supplement isle hoping to stumble onto something that might be useful. We help you understand all the opportunities and then work with you to develop a lifestyle that supports your goals for your best life.
Surgery preparation - We help our clients develop a plan for surgery preparation and post op recovery for when they get back home. This can help shorten recovery time allowing for a more pleasant experience, a more complete recovery and shorter down time from work.
Chronic disease support – We develop programs that use proven techniques to address many chronic conditions addressing many of the most pressing symptoms that may interfere with quality of life. We help many people who experience digestive disorders (GERD, IBS, colitis, Crohn's, gluten sensitivity), woman's health, weight-loss, chronic hives, among so many others.
Pain management – These programs can range from simple post workout soreness (thus shortening recovery time) to joint pain to chronic back pain to conditions like Fibromyalgia, EDS, Chronic Fatigue, headaches, TMJ, etc.
Quality of life programs – Some clients are looking for greater refinement, the opportunity to do more with less to experience life at a personally optimized level. We help clients develop programs that support daily living lead to better experiences of life whatever those goals or intentions might be. We work in partnership to discuss opportunities with clients and then develop a plan to create the desired experiences.
Learn More About Our Services
Everspring Health's service portfolio is designed to focus on personalized results for each client. When you stop in to visit you will find our approach to be comforting balanced by a distinct interest in understanding your experience. Our responsibility is to be an advocate for your health which requires finding a balance between understanding your goals and advocating for opportunities you might not yet be aware of with regards to your health. You will find that to gain a holistic viewpoint we ask a diverse series of questions to help us gain an effective perspective from which to begin your customized program. We will care about your everyday lifestyle because that is likely the most significant factor in what you are experiencing.
When considering preventive, rehabilitative and quality of life healing protocols the focus is less on which therapy or practice is "mandatory" and more on which therapy or practice is optimal given the needs of the client. Not everything is a nail needed to be pounded back into place; there are many therapies or practices that achieve similar results. What is important, and a significant factor in seeking long-term results, is the strategy that is used to effectively integrate therapies and practices into your daily life. Understanding this truth Everspring practitioners focus on achieving optimal results in balance with the most effective investment of time, money and effort.
Everspring clients benefit from service programs that focus on three key benchmarks within an individual's life – stress, diet and sleep. These three observation points provide a distinct feedback system to both our practitioners as well as to the client. By observing stress, diet and sleep clients have something from which to gauge their daily experience while from a clinic standpoint these three factors will reflect the client's current condition and will reflect progress as these experiences are refined. By rooting our programs in real life factors Everspring practitioners can build a more effective program that is less invasive, more affordable and the results end up being more empowering to the client because they improve daily life. The Everspring approach is similar to trying to untie a knot versus pulling or cutting to address key intentions.
Once we have established a dialog acknowledging the roll of stress, diet and sleep your practitioner will then seek to integrate more detailed or specific therapies that further support or sometimes take lead within an individual's program. By taking this approach Everspring programs can fit within anyone's lifestyle as well as working alongside, or in support of, any current medical program the client may be utilizing. Our service objective is to optimize one's experience, namely their quality of life, rather than trying to fit one's lifestyle or medical program into a mold that may not be entirely appropriate.
This focus on appropriateness and customization is what allows us to truly engage each client in their own experience and help them to become empowered in their own health and their lives as a whole. Health does just happen and it cannot be imposed even by the best practitioners. The pursuit of health is a partnership between clients and practitioners and this is the service you can expect when you come to visit with us. We seek to understand your experience, your perspective of that experience and then we develop a program with the resources you specifically need, explain why these resources are beneficial and what to expect as your program continues.

Canadian turntablist Kid Koala has formed a new musical project called The Slew with guitarist Dylan "Dynomite D" Frombach and Wolfmother's former rhythm section (Chris Ross and Myles Heskett).
A couple of years back Eric San (aka Kid Koala) and Dylan J. Frombach were approached to soundtrack a new documentary feature film that was in production. Koala was already well known for his uncanny turntable manipulation, whilst Dylan had remixed Money Mark and collaborated with the Beastie Boys, amongst others. The duo worked for a long time on the psych rock-influenced score, only for the filming to collapse and any release to be canned. Although the film may never see the light of day, its music is about to be brought to life on stage.
Recently Koala & Dylan met the former rhythm section of Grammy Award-winning Australian rock band Wolfmother and began telling them all about the film and its lost music. Chris Ross and Myles Heskett loved the clips and urged that the material had to be heard; subsequently Kid Koala and the guys decided to put a show on the road.
After intensive rehearsals the show is now ready to go. Featuring drums, bass/keys and the DJs working across a truly excessive six turntables, the set is seventy minutes of raw guitar cuts and heavy beats. We can guarantee that you will never have heard anything quite like this and also that you are unlikely to again. It's a one-off tour, so when it stops in your town you'll either be there or will have missed it forever.

thepoliticalnotebook knows how much I appreciate her work - because I send her fan mail - and I ask for her understanding that I mean no disrespect by this post. Her 'This Week in War' series has become a wonderful weekly anticipated post, but tumblrs, we need to talk about reblogging this.
I hope politicalprof won't mind me envoking his sentiment when he became a #politics editor and queried for quality original contribution political blogs, not just reblogs. When people reblog 'This Week in War' without further comment, I feel we have a substaintial issue: original contribution via blog - academics know what I'm talking about, and while we are at it can we talk about original sourcing of 'This Week in War'!! I think we should press the tumblr political, academic, and intellectual community for more original contribution and further quality growth when reblogging.
I argue that when individuals and NGOs reblog something as popular as 'This Week in War', there needs to be an elaboration on what thepolitcalnotebook has so considerately and carefully provided us with, not just reblogging. There needs to be a contribution to what rebloggers found particularly engaging about her post. This is how we can evolve our tumblr community; see SIGJ2 Writing Collective (2009), 'What Can We Do: the Challenge of Being New Academics in Neoliberal Universities', in Antipode (2012), pp 1-4.
If you (the blogger) don't have a contribution, debate, further information, or follow up to add, can we just all assume that we've read 'This Week in War'?
This isn't to diminish the amount of 'attention' 'This Week in War' receives (by likes and reblogs), we can still 'like' … but is it really, really necessary to reblog something we've all read and appreciated? If there's no new contribution to be made? What compels you to reblog? I suggest highlighting that section and contributing a new discussion or new material.
…I feel like a journal editor here.

That's got to be up there with some of my posts
The question is, who on the grid in 2013 even has the potential to beat Lorenzo? I can't look past Pedrosa and Rossi as being the only 2... at this moment in time I see Lorenzo pretty much odds on for 2013 and 2014, but Rossi and Pedrosa are in my opinion the best bet of picking up the left overs until we see Marquez settled in nicely o a Factory bike in MotoGP.
I wouldn't be surprised to see Rossi at Gresini with a factor spec Honda, but I personally think he will stay at Ducati.

New novel about Tanaquil Le Clercq and Balanchine

Oh, some real potboilers! Robert Harris' wonderful Cicero novels (told from the point of view of his slave and secretary, Tiro) and Philip Kerr's "Dark Matter," in which Sir Issac Newton, as head of the Royal Mint, solves a murder mystery. I forget -- who narrates Vidal's "Lincoln"?
I'll have to put on my thinking cap for more.
Posted 19 April 2012 - 02:29 PM
"Lincoln" isn't narrated by anyone. The story is told through the eyes of John Hay, one of Lincoln's secretaries. Very different book, in tone, approach, and I would say intent, from "Burr," which is lively and irreverent. He used Charlie Schuyler again for "1876." And I now recall that Charlie's mistress in "Burr" was the unfortunate and quite non-fictional Helen Jewett. But I digress....

"Outside" novelizations are risky too, of course: there's always the possibility that they paint a distorted picture of real persons and events. But by shifting the point of view to a third party the novel at least replicates something that we all do consciously or unconsciously, which is to try to understand something about another person's life based on what we see them do and say.

But Fitzgerald is so discreet and meticulous and uses Novalis' journals and notes to structure the novel. And Novalis sort of gives the writer permission in a fragment that Fitzgerald quotes at the beginning of The Blue Flower:
"Novels arise out of the shortcomings of history."
(And elsewhere Novalis writes something like: where philososphy ends poetry must begin.)

The Romantic Generation did have something of an enthusiasm for turning the lives of historical personages into art, although I don't think one reads Schiller's "Maria Stuart" or "Don Carlos" to deepen one's understanding of Elizabethan England or Philip II's Spain. (And if you're like me, you toss them aside and cheerfully listen to Donizetti's "Maria Stuarda" and Verdi's "Don Carlos" instead. ) You might read them for a better understanding of the particular concerns of Schiller and his contemporaries, however, and I think that's at the heart of my concern. We can see now how Schiller's Mary Stuart is the projection of those concerns rather than a "true" depiction of the historical queen (who might in fact be rather shocked by the philosophical ideas held by Schiller and his contemporaries). But perhaps we can't see the ways in which a contemporary novelized biography is more the reflection of our own early 21st century notions than an accurate depiction of another person's consciousness. Think of all the novels, plays, and biographies that were written when we were in the grip of a now much discredited Freudianism.
That being said, Fitzgerald's lovely book is indeed a model of tact, and it's charming that someone even thought to write a book about Novalis targeted towards an English-speaking audience!
Posted 20 April 2012 - 10:26 AM
Yes. It's a perfectly legitimate genre. One or another may not like it, a famous and controversial example being Styron's "The Confessions of Nat Turner" -- but it's done all the time and frequently done well.
I don't have a problem with liberties taken with the history, depending, obviously, on how far they go and what they are; again, this is is something that the novel form allows the writer to do and on occasion may compel him to do in order to provide shape to the narrative. I did wonder about a recent effort that took Laura Bush as subject, who is obviously very much alive even if she is a public figure.
Thanks for that, Quiggin.
Posted 20 April 2012 - 11:28 AM
I was apprehensive about reading about Novalis through an English voice, and so I didn't pick up The Blue Flower until only this year but then I was so happy I did.
There's a great scene where the young philosophers run into Goethe on one of his walks in the woods and break up into small groups because they know Goethe doesn't like to run into too many people at once. It's one of mixes of the grand and the everyday which Fitzgerald brings off again and again in the book. It's as if she is allowing the great ideas of idealism their earthly body and analog - a gentler, kinder Dr. Johnson.
Though it's not exactly about a real person, Javier Marías has a scene in Tomorrow in the Battle Think on Me about a Spanish prince who watches a video of Chimes at Midnight late one night when he cannot sleep, and in describing it to his speech writer, he comes to identify with the Orson Welles Falstaff character. A nice meeting of history and artifice.

Per Varley O'Connor: "There's not enough written about her [LeClercq] for a biography." Huh? Is that not the very reason good biographers track down family, friends, and colleagues for interviews and dig around in the archives for as yet un-mined source materials? She seems to be suggesting that she'd have penned a biography but for the the fact that not enough other people have written about LeClercq yet. I'd feel better about the project if she'd just said "I wanted to turn this woman's amazing life into a novel" or "I'm not a scholar but I needed to tell this story" or "I think a novel will reach a wider audience than a standard biography" or even "I couldn't get the kind of advance I needed to support the research a real biography would require."
I know it's an unfair extrapolation on my part, but the subtext I hear in that quote is "so of course I had to make stuff up."
Edited to add: I actually don't think O'Connor needs to justify writing a novel based on LeClercq's life, although I suspect she feels a lot of pressure to do so given the pushback. I don't recall William T. Vollmann going to any great lengths to justify novelizing incidents from the lives of Käthe Kollwitz, Dmitri Shostakovich, Anna Akhmatova, et al, in Europe Central although there was more than a little grumbling about his having done so and, especially, with some of the liberties he took regarding Shostakovich's life in particular. (He really did make stuff up.) Susan Sontag might have wept in frustration that her novels weren't esteemed as highly as she wished, but she would surely have brushed away complaints about fictionalizing a scandalous episode in the life of the revered Admiral Nelson like so many pesky flies. Did Don Delillo bother to justify novelizing Lee Harvey Oswald? One might argue that these authors are better writers than O'Connor, that their works aren't "exploitative" of their subject matter in the same way, that their subjects have been dead longer, or that they have the literary celebrity's equivalent of "F*** You" money, i.e., critical esteem bordering on reverence -- but that doesn't necessarily mean that they get a free pass and O'Connor doesn't. (And let me hasten to add that I haven't read any of O'Connor's work, so I can't comment on the quality of her writing or the degree to which she fastens on the sensational for fame and glory.)
Nor do I think anyone needs to justify feeling queasy about O'Connor's endeavor, especially persons who knew LeClercq personally.
O'Connor's novel itself is fair game, of course.
Posted 04 May 2012 - 11:21 AM
I was also struck by the comment that the author had heard that the marriage was falling apart, but they were married for 17 years! I had understood that the marriage was indeed falling apart until she contracted polio and Balanchine stayed with her because he felt so guilty about her illness. Is that what others understood?
Posted 04 May 2012 - 12:10 PM
California, on 04 May 2012 - 11:21 AM, said:
Indeed, I've read a few times that the marriage was over and they would have separated in January 1957 had she not contracted polio.
O'Connor's breathless delivery really irritates me. To be fair - or rather unfair, anything she says or writes at this point will annoy me. I'll be curious to see what publications review it.
P.S. I know I am being critical and bitchy but O'Connor uses the word "crippled" instead of paralyzed or disabled. I don't even recall news reports or friends ever using that verb. Very odd and annoying. I am in a bad mood today; my apologies.
I know it's an unfair extrapolation on my part, but the subtext I hear in that quote is "so of course I had to make stuff up."
Yes, I heard that justification too.

I was going through my books this morning, thinking about Pamela Moberg's new topic about ballet libraries, and came across this interesting, slightly harsh take on LeClercq by Ann Barzel from the 1953-54 edition of The Ballet Annual:
[Anyway I hope I haven't contradicted myself too much, but this isn't turning out to be a Penelope Fitzgerald novel on City Ballet - which might have been quite nice - like At Freddies.]

I am looking forward to the 3rd edition of The Dimwit's Dictionary: More Than 5,000 Overused Words and Phrases and Alternatives to Them: (it will be published next month). I hope the verb "reinvent" [oneself/herself] is in it. I am SO SICK of writers and entertainment reporters using it. As for Ann Barzel's comments on Le Clercq, I wonder if they are unwarranted. Wasn't Balanchine pushing Le Clercq to dance more classical roles such as Swan Lake by 1956? Of course, that was a few years later.
Posted 04 May 2012 - 11:21 PM
Not only is it overused, it's a sort of an awful idea.
I checked John Martin's reviews in the New York Times written about the same time as Ann Barzel's. Here's LeClerq's debut in Swan Lake, November 24, 1952:
In March 1956, however, he gives LeClercq a rare unflattering review:
On November 25, 1956 Martin sadly writes this:
One face of it is an impish pseudo-innocent kind of comedy; the other face is a childlike sort of lyrical universality. The former finds its outlets through the varied surfaces of Balanchine's "Bourree Fantasque" at one extreme and his "Ivesiana" at the other, with his bouncing "Western Symphony" and his curious "Metamorphosis" providing a somewhat comparable set of extremes.
But the other face of her talent shows us in Robbins "Afternoon of a Faun" a simple poetic power, able to endow the slenderest of emotional lines with enormous tensility, like a spider's web spun before our eyes. It is this same persuasive quality that Balanchine evokes from her rather more touchingly in "La Valse."
Robert Garis says at first he found LeClercq lacking Maria Tallchief's technique and persistence, that she gave the same part Tallchief had done inThe Nutcracker "only a lick and a promise." Much later he recognized her dance genius and realized that she foreshadowed the direction in which Balanchine would move with Suzanne Farrell.

Create the Life You Want to Live
We believe women have much to contribute to the world and worries about eating and weight significantly distract them from achieving their potential.
After years of putting their lives on hold, many women arrive at Green Mountain feeling stuck, discouraged and hopeless. Through our holistic approach, we help you create a foundation of self-care, which makes the big difference in creating and supporting long term, meaningful change. In a community of like-minded women, our caring and professional staff creates a safe and supportive space to address the real issues behind your struggles with your body and your weight.
Our emphasis on the whole woman, body, mind, emotions and spirit, is what makes us unique. More than nutritional information and exercise guidelines, we invite exploration of eating and exercise behaviors, to help you understand why you eat when you're not hungry, what keeps you on the couch when you know you need to exercise, and what fuels your negative self-talk. From this understanding, we teach strategies to help you start living and taking care of yourself NOW.
Through our Behavioral Program at Green Mountain, you will learn to connect your head to your heart and:
- Address one of the most important predictors of successful long term weight management…Stress Management: Unravel the destructive web stress throws over your mind, body and relationships and spirit. Through educational workshops like Nurturing the Whole Self and Limits and Boundaries, or practice sessions like Connecting to the Breath and Progressive Muscle Relaxation, you will learn to identify and address the sources of stress in your life. You will attend to the thoughts and judgments that create tension in your body and mind, and practice techniques to create pockets of calm within the swirl of your life.
- Change the self-defeating cycle of body hatred in our Body Positivity series. Explore your negative self-talk, which leads to painful feelings and hurtful actions. In sessions including Messages from the Past and Being in the Body, we'll use group processes and experiential modalities to move toward appreciation of what our bodies can do. You will discover what events prompt self-judgment as you practice simple and powerful strategies to enhance your self-care.
- Identify issues around out-of-control eating head-on through our Emotional Eating and Binge Eating sessions. Emotional eating, compulsive eating, and binge eating (the most common eating disorder) can leave you feeling guilty, depressed and out-of-control. In classes such as Overcoming Emotional Eating, Binge Beliefs, and Strategies for Stopping a Binge, we'll help you connect to your feelings, identify triggers for the bingeing, and formulate real and practical solutions. As you identify and attend to issues around emotional eating, compulsive overeating or bingeing, you'll gain a sense of hopefulness and possibility for a new, healthier relationship with food.
We believe women have the right to be happy, regardless of their weight.
At Green Mountain you'll reconnect with those parts of yourself that you have lost and find the hope, joy and possibility of stepping into the life you want.

Swartz's Suicide Prompts Group to Try to Reform Computer Fraud Laws
A week after 26-year-old Highland Park native and internet activist Aaron Swartz committed suicide, his supporters and family are seeking to change the way the government prosecutes the computer crimes he was charged with.
Highland Park native Aaron Swartz, 26, was remembered this week as a brilliant, compassionate mind who inspired friends and family, as well as a victim of unfair treatment by the government. Swartz, who commited suicide Jan. 11, co-created the social news website Reddit and founded Demand Progress, an organization devoted to Internet activism and fighting expanded government oversight of the Internet, according to CNN. Demand Progress is currently looking to mobilize grassroots and political support to "end prosecutorial abuses" and "amend computer fraud law," according to a news release the group sent out earlier this week. Under Aaron's Law, disputes over "terms of service" agreements would fall under the jurisdiction of civil courts, …

A number of studies have suggested that maternal detachment is common in tropical societies which suffer from high infant mortality. The author's own research revealed evidence of both detachment and positive affect. She suggests that maternal behavior in all societies can be best characterized as exhibiting maternal ambivalence.
The cosmologies of many cultures use gender as symbolic for polar attributes of human consciousness. The author presents a developmental neurobiological theory to account for the non-arbitrary way in which this attribution comes about, and applies the theory to an explanation of the symbolic use of gender in Tibetan tantric Buddhism. He concludes by discussing the implications of the theory for understanding the effects of positive and negative pre- and perinatal experiences upon the development of gender identity.
Though there is mounting demand by students for information about Pre- and Peri-Natal Psychology there is no such course being offered at a recognized university at this time. The authors, in an attempt to facilitate discussion on this subject and eventual implementation have prepared a course outline.
This article provides an historical overview of the history of midwives in the United States from the seventeenth century to the present. Brief background information on the period prior to 1600 is included. The article shows how a profession that was traditionally considered to be "women's business" came to be dominated by a predominately male medical establishment.
Advances in modern medicine in recent years have resulted in a remarkable increase in the number of human infants who survive a premature birth. Many of these infants undergo stressful perinatal and prenatal experiences, and require special care and attention in order for their physical and mental development to be optimal. If that goal is to be met, care-givers need to receive feedback from the infants, indicating how they are affected by treatment and stimulation. In this study, preterm infants displayed behavioral differentiation of various tactile stimuli.
The significance of parent-infant holding for infant development is emphasized from a psychobiological point of view as an essential ingredient of bonding. The theoretical perspective of direct perception in a perceiver-environment ecosystem (Gibson) is discussed together with current findings in infant research, as they may apply to explain how differential parent-infant holding patterns influence the infant's perception of his environment. Impacts of holding patterns on parent-infant-interaction are also mentioned. General qualities of facilitating holding patterns are elaborated.
The development of narcissism and masochism is examined by utilizing new data from movement observation, in general, and from observations and notation of fetal movement, in particular. This has led to the recognition that fetal movements are motor precursors of psychic functioning. The suggestion is made that both narcissism and masochism have their Anlage in utero. Because the fetus primarily grows and achieves progressive integration, the ratio between his integration and self-destruction favors the former.
As with most primates, optimal development in infancy proceeds with a high degree of intimacy and interaction between infants and caretakers. Human infants are less developed at birth than most primates because of selection for a greater percentage of brain growth to take place after birth than in utero.
Infant development among the Baganda of Uganda is discussed from a sociocultural perspective. Cross-cultural examples which illustrate cultural effects on infant behavior are presented. In particular, the area of sensorimotor development is examined by means of a social survey, direct observations and formal testing during the Muganda infant's first six or eight months of life. The pattern of advancement found supports the view that parental values and childcare behaviors influence rate of infant sensorimotor development.

Irish Poem of the Month - February
Human Wishes
Derek Mahon
from the Latin of Juvenal (Decimus Junius Juvenalis),
c.AD 50-c.127, Satires X
No one in his right mind would want to be
a big fish gobbling up the smaller fry;
it's the big fish who attract hostility
like Seneca and the rest in Nero's day.
You're better off to sit tight in your room
than be conspiring in the rising steam
among the towels of the baths and gym;
take change if you go out walking after dark,
avoid the war zones and the periphery
and keep your wits about you in the park
where a knife gleams behind each shadowy tree.
All pursue riches in our modern Rome,
gardens, a coach-house and a second home
bought with the revenue from untaxed income
at Capua, Aquinum, Trevignano or Tivoli;
but poison's seldom served in the wooden cups.
Beware the crystal glass and the golden bowl,
be careful when you raise wine to your lips
dining with colleagues on the Palatine Hill
or old friends in the Caffè Giovenal'
or swan and flamingo, antelope and stuff.
So which philosopher would we rather know
- the one who, staring from his portico,
laughs, or the one who weeps? Easy to laugh,
if we started weeping there'd be no end to it.
Democritus would shake with continual mirth,
even in his primitive times, at life on earth
and showed that stoicism spiced up with wit,
some candour and good sense, can mitigate
even the thick air of a provincial city.
Binge sex and fiscal heroin, discreet
turpitude flickering in a brazier light –
all anyone does now is fuck and shit;
instant gratification, entertainment, celebrity
we ask, but mumbling age comes even so,
the striking profile thick and stricken now,
the lazy tackle like a broken bough,
the simian features and the impatient heir.
What else can you expect from your white hair,
your voice like cinders under a kitchen door?
What use to you the glittering cleavages,
the best box in the house above the stage
when blind and deaf? Now fever and disease
run riot through our waste anatomies,
the old mind dithering in its anecdotage,
the joints all seizing up with rheumatism,
seek guidance of the heavenly gods who treasure
our lives more than we do ourselves. Subdued
by protocol and the fear of solitude,
you wed in haste and now repent at leisure
even as your hands shake in their final spasm.
Ask for a sound mind in a sound body
unfrightened of the grave and not demented
by grief at natural declension; study
acceptance in the face of fate; and if
you want to worship mere materialism,
that modern god we have ourselves invented,
I leave you to the delights of modern life.

Inspired by comments yesterday I decided to make semolina porridge today.
This is how I make it - its quite a bit different than the recipes in most books:
Pour a mug of full cream milk into a pan and put on a low heat...Take that mug and fill it a quarter full of semolina: so its four parts milk to one part semolina (most recipes will tell you something different). Gradually stir the semolina into the milk, stirring all the time, when all the semolina has been added, stir until the semolina is very thick. Add a pinch of salt, stir a final time.
Serve with fresh cream and raspberry jam or brown sugar. - February 26, 2011 at 10:46 AM

Porridge. Also the name of a TV show that included a character called Godber, a Villa fan. Which leads me on to: "I'm not your mate, mate, and the Villa are shite."
The Villa are shite?! The Villa are shite?! That would hurt if it weren't true.
Thoroughly enjoyed the book, the characters, the setting, the lyrical violence - and I thought the ending in East Anglia was very clever. - February 26, 2011 at 11:56 AM

Glad you liked it. Yeah I lived in that part of Cambridgeshire for a brief but happy time when I worked as a postman. Pints of Greene King, rolling fields of rape seed, the big airbase at Duxford...very pleasant part of the world.
I scored a goal once at Villa Park in circumstances that I have vowed not to reveal over the blog but I will when we go for that pint at the Local. - February 26, 2011 at 1:27 PM
- dpougher said...
Well, we must arrange it soon. Give me a buzz on 0403 985 357 some time and let me know when you're free.
And yes, I had a colleague on The Mail on Sunday who lived on the Norfolk coast and we went up and ate fresh oysters, drank excellent beer and tried to work out what the locals were saying. - February 26, 2011 at 2:12 PM
- seana said...
I should be Marco at right about this point, but am not. It would be apt, because of the poem, too.
It's hard not to stick to porridge because porridge has a way of sticking to us.
But it's a very fine poem, and I don't know Juvenal nearly well enough to decide who to give the credit to. - February 26, 2011 at 2:58 PM
- adrian mckinty said...
I'll give you a ring around St Paddy's day weekend.
You werent at the Local last Saturday were you? It was insane. They were having an Australian microbrew beer tasting. There must have been 1000 people there. - February 26, 2011 at 3:36 PM
- adrian mckinty said...
That thing that Bittman is talking about in the article cold oats and water is actually called dramach in Scotland and gets mentioned quite a bit in Kidnapped. That stuff really does stick to your ribs. - February 26, 2011 at 3:37 PM
- seana said...
I reread Kidnapped recently enough to remember dramach. Sort of. I think I kind of remembered it as summach.
- February 26, 2011 at 3:44 PM
- adrian mckinty said...
Ah thats interesting, maybe it is called Summach. Its been 10 years or more since I read it. - February 26, 2011 at 4:01 PM
- seana said...
No--safe to say that when we're down to the details, the bet is that your memory would be right and mine would be, well, somewhere else.
- February 26, 2011 at 4:51 PM
- dpougher said...
Nah, no such luck. Saturday's I start work at 7am and work through to midnight. The Local sounds like a much better bet.
But around St Paddy's is good. - February 26, 2011 at 8:49 PM
What about this poem? What do folks think of it or about it?
I think, hey, enjoy your time on earth as it's happening, get involved, don't stay in your rooms, go out, dive in, have fun. Be with other folks wherever your choose.
Don't ruminate or rue or regret...just do it!
And, by the way, read Tana French's "Faithful Place," a novel or Irish life, a mystery and more, a love story for love lost, characters to think about. - February 27, 2011 at 2:54 PM
- adrian mckinty said...
Yes I agree and stay out of politics. Its a very sensible Epicurian viewpoint. - February 27, 2011 at 5:21 PM
- seana said...
Kathy, I picked up an old galley of Simon Critchley's The Book of Dead Philosophers that someone had apparently tossed back the other day, and though I haven't gotten much past the introduction yet, I think he would agree with Mahon and Juvenal in these lines:
Ask for a sound mind in a sound body
unfrightened of the grave and not demented
by grief at natural declension; study
acceptance in the face of fate.
It seems pretty stoic to me, but then I haven't a) read the book or b)accepted death, so there you go. - February 27, 2011 at 5:25 PM
- adrian mckinty said...
I read that book. Its not as good as you think its going to be, which I suppose is a bit like life too. - February 27, 2011 at 5:35 PM
- seana said...
Yeah, I can tell it is pretty breezy, considering its subject, but on the other hand, I'll bet I can do with a crash course in dead philosophers more than you could, so I expect I'll profit.
- February 27, 2011 at 5:40 PM
- seana said...
And on the third hand, the sampler from Doomed Queens I read was quite good, and illustrates your point about not going into political life--not that most of these queens had a choice about the matter.
- February 27, 2011 at 5:48 PM
I differ on the politics--I say, get into it, think about it, enjoy it, but get out if you don't like it--or find somewhere else to go.
It's part of life.
My father, who loved politics--our dinner table was never void of political and news discussion in my childhood--said that when he was in Italy, everyone they went, people were heatedly discussing politics and news, in every cafe, important stuff. He enjoyed it.
I would, too, unless it were the Tea Party people; then I'd split and go elsewhere.
But it's just lifeblood.
And I don't know about this "acceptance of fate" stuff; people should go down reveling or fighting or something showing life is important, to be relished, even reading a good book. - February 27, 2011 at 6:39 PM
- adrian mckinty said...
Yeah as long as you're raging against something you can actually do something about. Raging against the elements King Lear style is not very profitable. - February 27, 2011 at 7:20 PM
- seana said...
No, you don't have to accept fate necessarily. But you do have to accept death--at some point. Everyone except for maybe Elvis.
- February 28, 2011 at 4:13 AM

Can't you come up with something relevant>
Detectives Beyond Borders
"Because Murder Is More Fun Away From Home"
http://www.detectivesbeyondborders.blogspot.com/ - February 28, 2011 at 6:07 PM
Seana, why should people accept death? It happens. If people prematurely accept it, they lose out on enjoying life. They give up. People can ruminate and obsess about this.
And if they accept it, where would we be without some of the great plays, movies, art, poetry and music, which rail against it? - March 2, 2011 at 5:45 PM
- seana said...
Well, I'm not saying you have to like it, or take it out to lunch. I just mean that it is a fact of our existence. I don't think this is a particularly gloomy position to take. You can enjoy a lot of life right up to the very end, but raging against the dying of the light is kind of pointless, despite what Mr. Thomas said.
- March 2, 2011 at 5:57 PM
Raging against death! But it's part of the human condition to rage against everything, to have opinions and feelings and get angry.
Why shouldn't people feel angry about this, especially if they're not in their 90s and have to face this finality?
And it has given us plays, books, poetry, art and more. - March 6, 2011 at 7:53 PM
