A Poet Among Visual Artists
By Mark Flanigan

Matt Hart sits for an interview with CityBeat in the small café at the Art Academy of Cincinnati, where he currently serves as associate professor in creative writing and the chair of liberal arts, and from where he will soon embark to Ann Arbor, Mich. for a poetry reading later this evening.
It will mark his 34th such engagement in the two months since the simultaneous release of his two newest poetry collections, Radiant Action (H_NGM_N Books) and Radiant Companion (Monster House Press), the former comprised of one 130-page serial poem. Previously, Hart has published six collections of poetry.
If it all seems like a lot, it is also part of his larger point — his books and their poems are bursting at the seams with vitality. "Your aesthetic is really just the ways that your values are manifested in your work and the choices that you made to get them there," Hart says. "So, here is one of the things that I value: I value inclusion over exclusion, in the extreme."
Visibly tired, his hands nonetheless begin to punctuate each sentence by pounding on the table as he continues. "(That) is why I want to try to say everything in every single poem," he says. "I want the poem to be as big as the world. That value of inclusion comes through in the writing — it's not that I refuse to edit or rewrite, because I do — but that I want every poem to be as much as it can be and activate possibilities. I am deploying language into the world, rather than employing it to do something in particular."
Hart's route to poetry and teaching has been circuitous. Born in 1969 in Evansville, Ind., he grew up there and in the nearby Ohio River town of Newburgh, Ind., until he left to attend Muncie's Ball State University, where he studied philosophy as an undergrad. Immediately afterward, he went into the master's program at Ohio University, where he chose to study the 20th-century Austrian-British philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein.
He didn't finish his master's then, but in hindsight learned a crucial lesson from his studies. "Wittgenstein talked about the possibility of language, what it can and can't do. It's where I feel I learned that poetry doesn't have to be true, it only has to be real; poetry doesn't have to prove anything."
Before finding poetry as an outlet, Hart had been singing and playing in Punk Rock bands, with some genuine success. Yet, it wasn't until he took a poetry workshop in the hope that it would make him a better lyricist that his trajectory changed when he witnessed an elder student read aloud "Feeling Fucked Up," by the late American contemporary poet Etheridge Knight.
Hart quotes the beginning from memory:
"Lord she's gone done left me done
packed / up and split
and I with no way to make her
come back and everywhere the world is bare
bright bone white crystal sand glistens
dope death dead dying and jiving drove
her away made her take her laughter
and her smiles and her softness and her midnight sighs—"
"I remember thinking, 'You can do that in a poem?' " Hart says. "You can make a big noise with just your voice and your body? The next day I sat down and tried to write a poem for the first time without a prompt, and I've pretty much been doing that every day for 30 years. That was a conversion experience.
"I had been playing in bands since I was 15, but I was changed," he adds. "That's why I believe in the power of art to connect us, to challenge us, in really generative ways. I was changed in a moment."
In 1999, six years after moving to Cincinnati and — with Eric Appleby — starting his own publication Forklift, Ohio: A Journal of Poetry, Cooking and Light Industrial Safety, Hart went to the MFA Program for Writers at North Carolina's Warren Wilson College's, in part because he didn't feel as if he was a legitimate poet without studying the technical aspects of poetry.
He remembers thinking, "If I go to graduate school in poetry and they tell me that I'm not good, I will quit."
"And I am so grateful that nobody ever did that," he says.
Teaching at the Art Academy, Hart communicates an overriding sense of compassion, but one coupled with discernment; more than anything, there was excitement, life and engagement, reminiscent of his recent poems.
In a post-interview email, Hart explains the importance of his class to the Art Academy's curriculum. "We're trying to get students to do something wildly unpredictable in accordance with their vision," he says. "But to do that they have to be able to grasp their vision. Articulating it helps give it shape, makes it a thing to be pushed, expanded, exploded. Articulation provides parameters that one can work with or against, and all art is made via this method."
There's an overriding, ultimately contagious, exuberance and passion to all of Hart's work, whether it's in his teaching, his writing or just in the way he sits in the Art Academy's café, preparing for a trip to Ann Arbor.
When asked if he ever finds himself self-conscious about that fact, he pounds on the table and says, "I refuse to live in the darkness of this time. I want for people so badly to have the things that they need. I want us to love each other. I want to be a believer, you know? I don't have a particular faith, in a religious sense, but I do believe in the human spirit and I am going to write that as hard as I can." ©
Excerpt from Matt Hart's serial poem "Radiant Action"
I'm wondering about heaven (as a metaphor,
of course, since I don't believe in heaven,
but I'd like to) and hoping that someday someone will
recognize themselves in this, and it will be as if
a great blast of electric light came into
whatever darkness they possess, and
they will be spurred to their own furtherance,
their own thoughts, the discovery
of their own
sources of energy, their own new works
with beginnings and endings, entwined
and entwining,
revealing better than I ever will the history
of this life, what it means to be awkward
in awe,
to be human in our time, to love one another
with perfect abandon, with total resolve,
descriptions of descriptions of waves forever
breaking into each other

Plus Therapeutics Expands ReSPECT™ Clinical Trial to MD Anderson Cancer Center
AUSTIN, Texas., Dec. 01, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Plus Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: PSTV) (the "Company"), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company developing novel, targeted and personalized therapies for rare and difficult to treat cancers, today announced that the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center is now an active clinical trial site in its ongoing ReSPECT™ Phase 1 clinical trial, currently supported by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). ReSPECT is a multi-center, dose-finding study evaluating the Company's lead investigational asset, Rhenium NanoLiposome (RNL™), in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM).
The study will be conducted by MD Anderson's Department of Neurosurgery with Jeffrey Weinberg, M.D., Professor of Neurosurgery and the Deputy Chair and Vice-Chair of Clinical Operations in The Department of Neurosurgery, as primary investigator.
"We are very excited to now have the MD Anderson Cancer Center enrolling patients in the ReSPECT clinical trial," said Andrew J. Brenner, M.D., Ph.D., Associate Professor of Medicine, Neurology, and Neurosurgery at The University of Texas, Health Services Center at San Antonio and principle investigator of the ReSPECT trial. "Jeffrey and his team are a valuable addition to our efforts to advance RNL as a potential new treatment option for recurrent GBM."
"We are pleased to add Dr Weinberg and the MD Anderson Cancer Center team to our growing list of ReSPECT trial sites," said Marc Hedrick, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Plus Therapeutics. "The company will significantly benefit from the exceptional team of institutions as well as clinical and scientific advisors with whom we are working that all share our dedication to improving the care of GBM patients."
As the Company previously disclosed, the sixth dose escalation cohort of the ReSPECT trial is underway and expected to enroll by the end of 2020. In September 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted both Orphan Drug designation and Fast Track designation to RNL for the treatment of patients with glioblastoma. Additional details about the ReSPECT trial are available at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01906385).

. I'd had the idea a while back when Simon smallgang said he was at a gig and there was a posse of cool looking Japanese Musicians that all knew each other and were part of this happening scene and he kind of wished he was part of something like that (which of course he is, but it's not viewed as 'conventionally cool'). Also in Japan there is a less wanky improv scene to that presently haunting London, so I thought we should have a go and it might just turn out more post punk sounding as we all do that in our bands.
Damnably is very proud to announce an exclusive and rare UK solo performance (on Guitar and Piano) from Shannon Wright.
£10 Adv, £12 on Door.
Shannon Wright's alt.country trio Crowsdell released two acclaimed LPs for Big Cat during the 1990s. They were recorded by Steve Malkmus and were regular John Peel favourites. When Crowsdell disbanded in 97', Shannon Wright thought about quitting music. After borrowing a 4 track machine, however, Wright taught herself to play drums, and a musical metamorphosis was set in motion. Her solo releases since have unleashed a visceral, abrasive, and raw form of post-punk expressionism. Wright's guitar-playing, and her approach to composition are simply unique.
Wright has recorded with Steve Albini and Yann Tierson, since signing to Touch and Go Records. She has made eight acclaimed albums (including FlightSafety, Maps of Tacit, Over The Sun, Let in the Light, and most recently, Secret Blood). In the live arena, she really shines; Shannon has been the touring partner of choice for Low, Sleater-Kinney, The Dirty Three, and Nick Cave, and was part of the ATP curated by Shellac and the Dirty Three. This is a rare opportunity to see a remarkable, intense, and groundbreaking performer in the U.K. Don't miss it.

This is the next part of my last post "What to ask to the host families?" As I already said, we sometimes forget how important it is to have a good interview with the HF to know if it could be a good match. Sometimes, au pairs feel that the host family may feel uncomfortable answering all these questions and they prefer to skip certain parts. However, this is a big mistake. As that host family wants to find the best Au Pair for their kids, Au Pairs want to find the best family to make part of their adventure a wonderful experience.
– Would I have to work at night?
– What are my duties regarding the house activities? e.g. do the laundry, cleaning the kids' rooms. .
– What meels do I have to cook for the kids?
-Do I have to buy the groceries every week?
– Is there any College or University I'm the city where I can complete my credits?
– Would you help me to find a place or enroll in case I need it?
– Are you aware of the money that host families have to provide the Au pairs to complete the credits? Are you okay with this?
– Can I use the car out of duties?
– To attend to my classes, would I use the car?
-Is there any restriction about the car? e.g. staying out late, driving to another city. . .
– What kid of car would I have to drive? Standard, automatic, a big car. . ?
Those are the main questions I asked during the rematch process. It was very helpful for me to choose my current HF and make sure this time I could expect a better experience.

Q: Nested for loops on data.table with complex sub-setting to populate empty data.table I have a data.table (dt) that looks like this -

I have this code with nested for loops, which for some reason is popoulating the data.table much slower than when it was a data.frame. How can I make it run faster? Which parts of my code are slowing it down?
paretoPoints <- data.table(
l = integer(),
c = integer(),
u = integer())

for (m in 1:nrow(dt)) {
    for (n in 1:nrow(dt)) {
        if (m > n) {
            a <- as.numeric(dt[m, 4])
            b <- as.numeric(dt[n, 3])
            c <- as.numeric(abs(length(unique(dt[n:m]$gene))))

            s <- head(which(dt2$s == as.numeric(b)), 1)
            e <- tail(which(dt2$e == as.numeric(a)), 1)

            dt3 <- dt2[s:e]
            u <- length(unique(dt3$gene))

            paretoPoints = rbindlist(list(paretoPoints, list(a-b, c, u)))
  }
 }
}

I have tried using combn(1:nrow(dt), 2, fun), but it didn't work.

Search engine optimisation can result in a number of great results for any website, including increased online visibility, increased rankings for desired keywords, and an increase in traffic to your website from users who are likely to convert.
However, what happens when a website pauses SEO activities? We take a look at different areas that would be harmed as a result of this, and why SEO should be a continuous activity.
Changes in search volumes and keyword competitiveness.
Once keyword research (the process by which we discover what users are searching for to find products and services relating to a website's offering) is conducted, we aim to refresh this research as often as possible. This is because the way users search on Google changes extremely frequently, so a keyword searched for 100 times a month in January 2019, may be searched for more often or less in January 2020.
Regularly researching search volumes of keywords is important to determine what keywords are best to target on your website, weighing up the amount of potential traffic against the competitiveness of that particular keyword. This continuous process ensures efficiency in bringing in as many users with the right search intent to your website.
It's also important to note that as more and more competitors adopt an SEO strategy, the more difficult it becomes to rank organically for particular keywords, heightening the importance of regular optimisation.
In the past few years, the platforms and ways in which users search for goods and services has changed dramatically, and this is set to continue to change in relation to new technology and user demands.
One big change we've witnessed is the introduction of voice search, using devices such as Amazon Echo, Google Home, and Cortana to search instead of manually typing into search engines. This has resulted in a change from shorter keyword searches to long tail keywords and question searches. Users are more likely to search keywords such as "where is the nearest supermarket to me?" as opposed to "supermarkets in Shrewsbury", expecting more personalised answers.
Another big change is the use of YouTube for search queries usually expected to be seen on traditional style search engines. YouTube is now seen as the 2nd largest search engine, more popular than Bing, and therefore as a result of this SEO practices have needed to adapt in order to optimise this platform in addition to old-fashioned website optimisation methods.
Perhaps the most important area of SEO to be aware of, Google's algorithms are what determine where your website should rank for particular terms, and Google often implements changes and updates how these algorithms work.
SEO techniques that worked for a website 2 years ago are unlikely to work today. A prime example of this is the use of black hat link building. This was once an easy way to gain high rankings but now if used you could Google penalties and severe reduction in online visibility.
Only continuous SEO work and research can determine what tasks and methods are best for each individual website to perform well, by performing a thorough analysis of website performance a particular strategy is implemented and reactive accordingly.
Being able to advise and check how web development work has impacted SEO is another reason why continuous SEO efforts are required and not just one-off ad-hoc work. Using the below as an example, a stop in SEO work meant a new website launch was not overseen by ourselves, resulting in detrimental results for organic visibility.
Being able to work with Web Development teams before and after they make changes to websites allows us to prevent and amend any detrimental effects on online visibility, which can take a number of months to recover from depending on the issue.
In summary, the answer to how often SEO should be done is continuously. Keeping ahead of industry trends, developments and user behaviour changes is vital in order to stay ahead of the ever-growing competition. SEO also plays a vital role in keeping an eye on the website from a technical search engine crawler and user perspective.

Q: Android studio - should the entire .idea directory be in git ignore? I saw a lot of examples for .gitignore files for AndroidStudio, some have .idea in them, and some don't.
Is there a good reason not to add the entire .idea dir to .gitignore?
If it should not be completely ignored, are there specific files inside .idea (such as .iml) that should be in .gitignore?

A: The concept of keeping the project configuration in VC is valid. I did this with my team because all of our developers happened to use PHPStorm for our projects and so it made sense to keep a common configuration ... in concept. We wanted to use the same dictionary files, the same coding standard rules, and the same plugin configurations.
The reason why I qualify this with "in concept" is because there were issues with JetBrains' .idea folder that led to us not being able to use it. These were probably issues that could have been avoided or fixed, but it was unclear to us how to do it right, and we think that's a fault of JetBrains because as developers we do not have time nor desire to search for solutions on how to make our IDE work correctly.
That being said, the issues were had are the following:

*

*Symlinking project folders doesn't work right.
When I set up my projects, I symlink them into my home directory. What we discovered was that the project was set-up to use the exact symlink rather than just treating it like a concrete directory. This means that if another developer keeps his project in a different place, or simply does not use symlinks, the entire directory will be missing from the project navigator because it is quite literally looking for the symlink. What's worse is that I could never find this path value in the configuration. We were unable to find the exact config in the files constituting our .idea folder.

*Definition files are partitioned to users by default. This means if I want to add a word to my dictionary, it will be listed as a definition for me, jgreathouse, but other users will have their own definition section. The flagged words will still show up as a spelling mistake for other users. This is not desireable. The reason I add it to my definition file is because the IDE is wrong. I want these definitions to be intuitively shared with other users.

*Colleagues kept overwriting the configurations because their IDE would overwrite the configurations with their config currently in Memory. What I mean is that, a developer would be working, and merge their repository from origin, which would contain a project configuration change, instead of their IDE changing configurations, or even giving them a choice, it would automatically overwrite the .idea configuration with the current in-memory configuration of their IDE.  In my opinion this makes the .idea configuration unusable as a shared configuration. In order to work around this, the developer would literally have to shut down that instance of their IDE, pull the repo, and re-open their IDE. It makes no sense to keep a shared configuration if the IDE instantly overwrites it with the configuration currently in memory. It's like not having a shared configuration at all.

I've done these types of shared IDE configurations in VC before with Visual Studio and Netbeans and it was always fine; but with .idea it feels simply unusable which is disappointing. I wish JetBrains would get on top of it and make it a better user experience.

A: OK, so after some "Yes" and "No" answers, I am adding a "Yes and no" answer :)
The problem is that .idea is used for both project build configuration (dependencies declaration) and project settings (inspections, etc.).
You definitely don't want to use your IDE for your build configuration, but you might want to share the settings among the team. That's why you need to ignore only a part of the .idea content (like the libraries folder and the modules.xml file), but keep others in the version control (e.g. the copyright, dictionaries and inspectionProfiles folders and files under .idea like dynamic.xml, codeStyleSettings.xml, etc.).

A: You can take a look at this page :
IntelliJ doc about project configuration files
In the "Directory-based format", a particular line is interesting :

The .idea directory contains a set of configuration files (.xml). Each file contains only a portion of configuration data pertaining to a certain functional area which is reflected in the name of a file, for example, compiler.xml, encodings.xml, modules.xml.
Almost all of the files contain information core to the project itself, such as names and locations of its component modules, compiler settings, etc. Thus, these files may (and should) be kept under version control.

However, I properly HATE to make project IDE-dependent (I am currently working on a project made with NetBeans and it hurts to use it with Eclipse which becomes the standard of my company).
So, to answer your question :

*

*If you do not use something like Maven or Gradle to manage dependencies and build : keep the directory under version control. This way, the correct configuration of the project and dependencies will be available for everyone. In the counterpart, all developers will have to set their environment exactly the same way that you define it in the config files.

*If you do use something like Maven or Gradle : correctly configure these tools and do not keep the directory under version control. Actually, all the information contained inside config files should be stored in Maven/Gradle files. Then let your developers configure their IDE depending of their environment. This way, using Eclipse, IntelliJ, Linux, Windows ... will not be a problem anymore.

A: As a complement to the explanations in this question GitHub's .gitignore template for Android includes the following files:
# IntelliJ
*.iml
.idea/workspace.xml
.idea/tasks.xml
.idea/gradle.xml
.idea/assetWizardSettings.xml
.idea/dictionaries
.idea/libraries
# Android Studio 3 in .gitignore file.
.idea/caches
.idea/modules.xml
# Comment next line if keeping position of elements in Navigation Editor is relevant for you
.idea/navEditor.xml

Notice also this entry from JetBrains guidelines on How to manage projects under Version Control Systems about sharing IDE project files with other developers:

What needs to be shared:
All files under the .idea directory in the project root except the
items that store user-specific settings: workspace.xml
usage.statistics.xml shelf directory

Q: Why doesn't this group have a name? $$\{A\in GL_n(\mathbb{C}) : |det(A)|=1\}$$  This seems to me to be a perfectly natural group to study; it is easy to define and contains $U(n), SL_n$, and all the torsion.    Is there any good reason why this group isn't among the usual classical groups that are so well-understood and thoroughly discussed?  I understand that most of those are studied/defined by looking at groups preserving particular inner products, but it still surprises me that I've never heard of any interesting results/properties of this group.  The only guess I currently have is it's not compact.
I could ask the same question with $\mathbb{R}$ but then "morally" the group is just two copies of $SL_n(\mathbb{R})$  so I understand why it's less interesting.
A perfectly acceptable answer is that I'm totally misinformed and this group is perfectly understood, classical, named, etc., in which case any reference would be appreciated.

A: Denote the group in question by $G$. Then there is a split extension
$$1 \to SL_n(\mathbb{C}) \to G \xrightarrow{\text{det}} S^1 \to 1$$
where the splitting is given by $S^1 \to G,\; z \mapsto \text{diag}(z,1,...,1)$. Hence, from the group theoretical point of view $G$ is just the semi-direct product
$$G = SL_n(\mathbb{C}) \ltimes S^1$$
Added: Your guess that $G$ isn't compact (in Euclidean topology) if $n>1$ is correct. For, suppose $G$ is compact. Then, the closed subgroup $SL_n(\mathbb{C}) = \text{det}^{-1}(1)$ is also compact, in contradiction to the fact that it contains the unbounded subset $\lbrace\text{diag}(z,z^{-1},1,...,1) \mid z \neq 0\rbrace$.

A: This is just a guess: If you're going to sacrifice complex analyticity by allowing complex conjugation in the defining equations, then you should take full advantage of that by using lots of complex conjugates and gaining something important in return, like compactness (as in the case of the unitary group).

A: I guess one answer is there's an isomorphism between your group and
$$SL_n \mathbb C \times_{\mathbb Z /n\mathbb Z} SO_2$$
My notation means take the product and mod out by the diagonally embedded copy of $\mathbb Z/n \mathbb{Z}$.
The embedding of $\mathbb Z/n\mathbb Z$ in $SO_2$ is as the cyclic subgroup of order $n$, and the embedding in $SL_n \mathbb C$ is the matrices of the form $\lambda I$ where $\lambda \in S^1$ is an $n$-th root of unity and $I$ is the identity matrix in $SL_n \mathbb C$.
So it's almost a direct product of two fairly nice groups.

2019 Senior Open: Darren Clarke to make debut
Darren Clarke secured his best finish since joining the Champions Tour in the US, sharing second place in last month's Cologuard Classic in Arizona.
Former Open champion Darren Clarke will make his Senior Open debut this year at Royal Lytham & St Anne's in July.
The 2011 Open champion returns to the links where he finished tied third in the 2001 Open for the over-50's event.
"I'm looking forward to getting back to Royal Lytham. It's a very fair golf course, and I went close there in 2001," Clarke said.
The 2019 Open at Royal Portrush takes place from 18-21 July with the Senior Open at Royal Lytham from 25-28 July.
Clarke, who won his Open title in at Royal St George's, will attempt to join an elite group of golfers who have won both the Claret Jug and the Senior Open trophy in Bob Charles, Gary Player and Tom Watson.
"I would love to give myself an opportunity to win the Championship and follow in their footsteps," said Northern Ireland's Clarke.
The 50-year-old will be one of a host of former major champions, Ryder Cup captains and European Tour winners in action at Royal Lytham.
He will join fellow former Ryder Cup captains Bernhard Langer, Paul McGinley Colin Montgomerie and Ian Woosnam in the field, as well as defending champion Miguel Angel Jimenez, who won at St Andrews.

Recently I had the shock of getting to know a couple of people whose character/ demeanour/ personality filled me with curiosity. They appear to lack any discernible measure of egotism. They demonstrate excellence – not just small-pond admiration – and yet are also kind and humble, thoughtful and nuanced, assume the best of others and try to bring out the best in others. Surprise, surprise, they are teachers, however their lack of egotism is what really draws me to them.
This gives me great pause, because I realise this evening that for the entirety of my career, including during my BEd., while working in an Autism centre, in my first job and in my current position, I have had to battle against, prove myself, impress, or try to outdo countless teachers, administrators, or pedagogues and their massive, massive egos. And to be perfectly honest, I have a pretty sizeable ego too, so I am certainly part of the problem.
I am really shaken by this realisation. I actually spent a fair bit of time just now coming up with a list of examples of horrible, ego-driven interactions – I had at least eight and counting – but they were all so negative and nasty that I didn't feel like I could share them with you, dear readers. You don't deserve it.
The individuals of the first paragraph have an aura of positivity, but it's not a bulls*&$, positive psychology, smile your clinical depression away kind of positivity. Nor is their positivity unrelenting – I have witnessed them call out a pedagogical trash fire when they see one. And I know they haven't just had better luck with their teaching experiences than I have either. Their positivity seems to be generated by an authentic sense of purpose (I dunno, it's late and I'm babbling now).
Perhaps you're thinking that I should focus more on my positive experiences, where other teachers gave me tons of support and built up my confidence, and when I have done the same for others. I absolutely have those, and I am more than willing to concentrate on building my relationships with those people in the future. However, this evening I am simply gobsmacked by how much egotism has influenced and shaped my experience of the teaching profession.
One final thought before bed: the experience of this challenge has been one of the most positive, creative, open and ego-free of my career. I am so thrilled and inspired by the posts I am reading – I am learning so much about writing from all of you. And I am so incredibly grateful to have people read and enjoy my writing. Participating in this challenge has filled me with so much joy.
I've known a few of those nearly egoless people in my life too, and it's quite a revelation to see that one can live quite happily and comfortably in that zone. I'm pretty sure the universe isn't done teaching me this lesson, I clutch my righteous indignation and intellectual certitude close close close to me! Ah well, it's good to have aspirations! Loved your post.
I understand- it is easy to get drawn into the ego and negativity. Sometimes it feels like admin actually fosters that. Competition can be healthy, but in education, I feel that it shouldn't at all be encouraged- when 1 "wins" we all do. Mentoring another teacher to success increases the number of students who are successful, and isn't that what we are here for? I much prefer to work in a positive collaborative atmosphere. I feel I am better for it.
This community really is something special. I've been through all the feelings about it – excitement, awe, overawe (what can I possibly write that will fit in) and more. Through it all, others have been there, commenting. I am really enjoying your blog. Your voice is honest and your range is wide. Tonight I am feeling humbled by your reflections about egotism and teaching. I'm impressed that you thought your way through EIGHT ego-driven interactions. I shied away from that little thought experiment after I found the first one. No one will ever accuse me of having an underdeveloped ego. So I am intrigued by these colleagues of yours and long to know more – and I'm busy thinking of my own colleagues… hm… Ok – that reflection aside, can I point out these amazing lines, please? "not a bulls*&$, positive psychology, smile your clinical depression away kind of positivity" and "I have witnessed them call out a pedagogical trash fire when they see one." Amazing.
This blog will be for my personal, candid reflections. Going so far they call me Passport Pat.

Your comments in Parliament on Sri Lanka—letter to a British Parliamentarian
Asitha Gamage
Mr. James Gray MP
Dear Mr. Gray,
I was most surprised at the false allegations made by you in the British Parliament and the obviously overt vicious persecution of Sri Lanka by you, viz. "
*Mr James Gray* (North Wiltshire) (Con): The Minister's word "reconciliation" is right after 25 years of appalling civil strife. In addition to the Tamils who are kept in such dreadful conditions in the camps, is he aware that quite a number of Sri Lankans in Colombo and elsewhere who were thought to be vaguely sympathetic towards the Tamils are also in detention without trial? There is huge human rights abuse there as well. Is my hon. Friend addressing that with the new Government?
*Source:
*http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm/cmtoday/cmdebate/02.htm
*You declare:*
1. that Tamils are kept in dreadful conditions in the camps;
2. quite a number of Sri Lankans in Colombo and elsewhere who were thought to be vaguely sympathetic towards the Tamils are also in detention without trial.
I am extremely surprised that the son of a Scottish Chaplain and Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, and an educated mother togther with your own academic background, you could make such hideous and criminal statements of vast lies in what you call the Mother of all Parliaments!
Mr. Gray, have you been to Sri Lanka recently and seen these so called dreadful conditions in camps? Where on earth did you find any justification/s to make your hideous and generalised second accusation about "detention without trials of anybody even vaguely sympathetic towards Tamils"?
In case you are unaware of the truth and are playing a "paid" pied piper for anti-Sinhela organisations or as a Christian committed to anti-Buddhist declarations alluding barbaric social practices in the liberated Commonwealth countries, let me say that you must either go to Sri Lanka and meet the following people before making your holier than thou falsehoods from the sacred pulpits of Westminster:
i. Minister Vinayagamoorthy Muralidharan (former Dep. Leader of the LTTE and present Minister in the SLn Cabinet]
ii. Kumaran Pathmanathan (presently a prominent care-taker of Refugees including those in the temporary camps/shelters; former Deputy Leader Leader of the LTTE and immediate successor to the late Velu Pirbaharan, Leader of the British Government proscribed LTTE)
iii. Sivanesathurai Chandrakanthan, (Chief Minister of Eastern Province; former child soldier of LTTE)
They will be more than happy to answer your questions in addition to being better qualified and knowledgeable about the allegations you made in the British Parliament. You should be ashamed of yourself Mr. Grey. Surely in this day and age how could you carry on the traditional British and especially Scottish military attitudes of the imperial British days. Here is what your forefathers did in Sri Lanka in 1818, just 03 years after hoodwinking the Lankans into signing a joint declaration of administration for Sri Lanka:
The British reneged on every single joint agreement on administration that led to a revolt within 03 years. The response of your forefathers, Mr. Gray, was to order that every male person above the age of 12 to be massacred, all paddy fields and agricultural areas be set on fire, all Buddhist temples be razed to the ground, the ancient irrigation system to the paddy fields and water supply to the Sinhala community in this vast area of Uva Wellassa be destroyed beyond repair and even the cattle be completelyslaughtered. Even some of the British Government servants of successive times wrote about these gross genocidal efforts by your people. For example, in the 'Journal of Uva,' Herbert White, a British Government
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Government Agent in Badulla
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badulla after the rebellion minuted:
"It is a pity that there is no evidence left behind to show the exact situation in Uva in terms of population or agriculture development after the rebellion. The new rulers are unable to come up to any conclusion on the exact situation of Uva before the rebellion as there is no trace of evidence left behind to come to such conclusions. If thousands died in the battle they were all fearless and clever fighters. If one considers the remaining population of 4/5 after the battle to be children, women and the aged, the havoc caused is unlimited. In short the people have lost their lives and all other valuable belongings. It is doubtful whether Uva has at least now recovered from the catastrophe".
Your predecessors set fire to over 2 million hectares of prime virgin rainforests in the highlands of Sri Lanka to cultivate Tea and in the process completely devastated the regional mesoclimate, destabilised the soil leading to massive erosion and sedimentation in the rivers and triggering off unusual floods patterns in the island. Your ancestors brought in and indentured over 1.5 million Tamil people from Soth India to labour in your Estates. These poor immigrant people were kept in isolated pockets with no access to communicate with the local Sinhelas, kept in "line rooms" which were worse than even glorified dog kennels. When your ancestors had gathered all the benefits fromn the natural and human resources and destroyed all vestiges of civilised harmonious society in Sri Lanka, they walked away leaving strife, misery and a disorganised civil administraion. The Tamil issue is one such where we are still, after 60 years of your leaving the country, trying to sort out in the traditional patterns we had over 1000 years.
Today, you get up in the House of Westminster and proclaim sanctmonious overviews casting false aspirtions on the very people you left in disarray some 60 years ago. Is it some strange genomic aberration in some of the British parliamentarians that drives your bogus holier than thou atitudes and allied statements? Have you no sense of shame even to keep quiet knowing full well that you were the reason for the evil legacies of post British colonial period? Why should a Conservative MP (of all people) from Wiltshire (of all places in the UK
Can you please explain yourself? You owe us a reply.

He is definitely GRAY but not due to GREY matter in the brain!
PRIYAN WIJEYERATNE Says:
Dear Asitha: can you find out how much it will cost to publish your article in a Scottish new paper? I will contribute toward its cost. We must publish it and we must remind these ignorant scotts about their past. He must have been on scotch when he uttered these nonsense in the parliament. I know there are some Sri Lankan tamil doctors married to Scottish women. This idiot may be related to one those unfortunate women and is under false information by these tamils.
Sri Rohana Says:
Asitha
Brilliant! I don't think this irresponsible fallas can reply to you. May be Gray parrot read a statement what tamil racists drafted.
I like to add a part to Uva Wellassa massacre by British. After Uva Wellassa Sinhala population massacred by British invaders, they allowed tamil nadians to freely migrated to Eastern (Uva Wellassa) province of Sri Lanka and occupy Sinhala lands. Remained Sinhala's were chased from their native land. Most eastern province's Sinhala areas were looted and occupied by tamils after 1818 with the blessing of British. Ex: Galamuna (kalmune), Valas hena (valchchnai), Nindhagama (ninthaur), Gantalawa (kanthalai), Madakalapuwa (mattakalpuwai), Galgoda (kalkuda).
On what basis Gray says that tamils kept in the camps. Those tamils were used as a human shield by tamil terrorists during the war and they were liberated by our forces. Temporary camps created by government as a shelter to them.
Why not Gray and British parliament debate on Palestinian situation. Since 1947 several millions of Palestinians were forced to live in refugee camps in their own country. There are three generation of Palestinians living in camps after British and Americans created Israel. This is one of the humanitarian disasters in present world.

Production success
Home/General News/Production success
Last week was the launch of the College's first production, MacBeth.Com. I would like to congratulate Terry Muller, Barry Jones and their team on what is an excellent production. The use of multimedia showcases what our College has to offer and the performances, acting singing and dancing were top quality. The back stage and technical teams also put in top quality performances and it is a shame the audience can't see the work that goes on in these areas. Well done to all those students involved. This experience is providing our students with some excellent skills for the future and we hope to see these skills used in future careers. The audience was clearly engaged by the variety of media used and the mixture of 'styles' used in the delivery of Shakespeare's Macbeth. The 'programme' produced for the 'play' was created by Emma Favaloro; that in itself is worth a read.
Echuca College is proud to present Macbeth .com as our first theatre production since the establishment of the College in 2006.
The news of a 'production' spread fast around the College and students with ambitions to perform on the big screen and on stage have flocked to the concept and now reality of a College production. The staging of a College production has also provided an opportunity for a range of other talents to be explored by our students. Macbeth.com is a blend of Shakespeare's famous tragedy with contemporary interpretations which heavily employs modern technologies.
While character roles in the production are much sort after, many students are involved in music and sound production, costume development, video and multimedia support. The production presents the original story and complements it with film, live and recorded music traditional hip hop dance and computer graphics.
There are many unique and surprising elements to this production. It will leave its audience stunned and full of questions, realizing the potential of live theatre to both entertain and challenge the mind.
Work on the production started late last year with Mr Muller and his team rallying the troops and planning the calendar of rehearsals for 2014.

Business Intelligence / Primary Concerns
Primary Concerns
By Edward Cone Print
Securing Company Data in an Era of Remote Work
What Third-Party Vulnerabilities Exist in Your Tech Stack?
Electronic voting machines in Maryland survived their first test, but officials may want to install a firewall before the presidential election.
The early returns are in and no voter fraud has been discovered in the wake of Maryland's first statewide use of touch-screen electronic voting machines, which took place during the Democratic primary on March 2. That's a good thing...right?
Maybe not, says the expert who outlined several specific steps Maryland needed to improve its security procedures—only some of which the state managed to implement before the primary.
"Election officials will think that this validates the system, that now we can all see that it works just fine—but that's not the case," says Michael Wertheimer, a systems-security consultant at Columbia, Md.-based RABA Technologies, the firm charged with advising Maryland on its voting security. "In fact, what this means is that when the November election comes around—the really important election—a malicious person will have had an opportunity to do reconnaissance."
Nonsense, says Linda Lamone, the state's director of elections. "This showed that our systems are secure," she said after the Super Tuesday vote ended with no major technology glitches. But can a voting system be secure without following a security recommendation as basic as installing an Internet firewall?
The primary was Maryland's first statewide election since purchasing more than $55 million worth of touch-screen electronic voting machines from North Canton, Ohio-based Diebold Election Systems Inc. in 2003.
The RABA report, commissioned by the state and released in mid-January, followed several critical analyses of touch-screen voting machines, including a damning report last summer from researchers at Johns Hopkins University. RABA found that Maryland's Diebold voting machines could be opened with a purloined key or simply pried open, then disabled or reprogrammed. Password protection was deemed inadequate. Researchers also found they were able to dial into the vote-tabulation server, raising the specter that hackers bent on election-tampering could do the same.
Maryland state officials responded prior to the March 2 vote by securing machines with tamper-proof tape, and by creating new, randomly generated passwords for key cards, although the latter was done only at a county level, not the precinct level suggested by the report.
A sampling of voters at Lutherville, Md., on Super Tuesday showed that the systems worked well on the surface. "The machine was easy to use," says Charlie Mitchell, 49. "The only thing I wondered about was what I had read about these machines—were the votes getting counted or not? I don't know."
Maryland failed to carry out other key recommendations as well, such as patching the Windows 2000 software used on its central computer system, and installing a firewall to protect that system. "We are disappointed," Wertheimer says.
Lamone says Maryland will follow through by November on the RABA recommendations it hasn't yet implemented. The state's claim: its Global Election Management System software has choked on patches in the past, meaning any fixes and subsequent independent testing might not have been completed in time. Maryland couldn't risk a system failure, since there was no backup to the touch-screen units—the state had already gotten rid of its old, optical-scan voting machines.
The risk of tampering is as old as voting itself, but technology makes it both harder to trace and possible on a larger scale, says political activist Kevin Zeese, who heads an advocacy group called Campaign for Verifiable Voting that wants stricter controls on Maryland's voting procedures.
"The Republicans say the Democrats are out to steal elections, the Democrats say the Republicans are and the Greens say they're both right," he cracks. The group has focused on Web-based activism, posting tools online that allow volunteers to write legislators and newspapers, put logos on their own websites, sign resolutions and so on. About 1,000 people have taken some sort of action through the site, Zeese says.
Diebold has not helped things. The company announced in January 2003 that it had accidentally revealed source code for its voting machines on the Internet, and found itself at the center of a political controversy when its chief executive wrote a letter later in the year pledging to help re-elect President George W. Bush.
Meanwhile, the two groups of professionals involved—elections officials and computer scientists—are talking past each other. Where their specialties overlap, they tend to disagree on both the big picture and the details. "These are wonderful people in elections, but they are not security professionals or information-technology professionals," says Wertheimer, a veteran of the National Security Agency who adds he has witnessed repeated attempts to hack systems at military sites, power grids and phone networks.
Lamone notes the machines had been extensively tested, with every unit undergoing logic and accuracy tests. But David Dill, a Stanford computer scientist who has been a high-profile critic of voting-machine security, says current logic and accuracy tests are inadequate. "They mostly consist of running scripts on the machines," Dill says. "It is incredibly easy to write malicious code that checks whether there is a script running and behaves perfectly in that case. A better test would be to run a mock election, but there are literally dozens of checks that malicious software could use to distinguish a mock election from a real election."
Dill says that testing procedures at the federal level are no better. "I can't even get good information about how carefully the software is inspected by the [federal] testing labs," he says.
Lamone dismisses RABA's success at physically breaking into boxes as unrealistic in the real world, given the presence of election observers, locked storage facilities and other traditional security methods.
But Wertheimer says the biggest risk of tampering with electronic voting machines is from insiders—either elections staff or vendors. "If you have five minutes with a server, you can load a CD and change everything," he says. The risks grow the farther upstream you go. Compromising a single machine might involve 150 votes, the average number of votes counted by a single machine, according to Wertheimer. Cracking a server at the county level in Maryland might mean access to tens of thousands of votes, with more than three million votes at stake at the state level.
"If malicious changes to the software are made before it is distributed to the individual machines, there is no way to defend against it," Dill says. "It can easily be hidden so that it is very unlikely to be detected by any amount of inspection or testing."
Computer experts say that paper ballots printed by the electronic machines would reduce risks of tampering—a position taken last fall by California voting officials.
"Name an electronic transaction that doesn't ask if you want a paper receipt—at the bank, the gas pump, Amazon," Wertheimer says.
Indeed, Dill suggests that voting systems need tighter security, since voters' names aren't inscribed on ballots. "Compare that with banks, [which] have paper audit trails all over the place, all transactions have the names of the participants on them—and they are still subject to insider fraud," he says. "It's a cost of doing business."
But many voting officials say printers are unreliable and the ongoing cost of paper ballots and storage are too high. "Paper will cause more problems than it solves," Lamone says.
Nevertheless, Lutherville voter William Myers, 74, says he expected a paper trail of some sort, but acknowledges he didn't see one. "Nothing is perfect, I suppose," Myers says.
Wertheimer admits that paper is "a nightmare" to store according to federal standards, but says the costs of building and upgrading security over time will be greater than those associated with paper. "Your local election judges have to be information-technology pros," he says. "Security is a process, not something you achieve. When you buy into an all-electronic solution, you are buying into a lifetime of increasing support, like patching your PC repeatedly against new viruses. You have to stay ahead of the hackers around the world."

The student, referred to in the lawsuit as John Doe, is accused of assaulting a female student, referred to as Jane Roe, at a party that took place on April 28, 2017. Doe is being represented by Brian Roark. Roark represented another male student accused of sexual assault in a lawsuit against UT President Gregory Fenves that was settled last November.
The University's sexual misconduct policy states that a student is unable to give consent if given due to physical force, threat of physical force, coercion or incapacitation. In regard to this, the lawsuit said UT's definition of incapacitation — "a state of being that prevents an individual from having the capacity to give consent" — is too vague to be applied fairly. The only examples of what could cause incapacitation given in the definition are the use of drugs or alcohol, being asleep or unconscious or because of an intellectual or other disability.
The night of the incident, both students were intoxicated, which the lawsuit said the University equates to being incapacitated. Following this, both students should have been investigated and threatened with suspension, not just Doe.
"If intoxication actually invalidates consent, then in this case the school is only enforcing their rules against the male student," the lawsuit said.
The lawsuit requests the hearing and other disciplinary action against the student be stopped and that the student be awarded damages. Doe also requested a jury trial.

"Uber Sees Itself as the Next Potential Amazon"—But Others See It as the Next Yahoo
Under the hood of the biggest I.P.O. in recent memory.
By Nick Bilton
Khosrowshahi at the 2017 Sun Valley Conference.By Rob Latour/REX/Shutterstock.
In Silicon Valley, for better or worse, technology companies often inherit the character of their founders. More than a decade into its life, Facebook still exudes Mark Zuckerberg's chilly realpolitik. Even now, Twitter embodies the turbulence of its early years, when Jack Dorsey and Ev Williams competed for the top position on the greasy pole on a dizzying basis. Apple, even under the leadership of Tim Cook, still levitates on Steve Jobs's signature products—just as it evidences his signature self-confidence while it brazenly enters new markets, such as music and content.
More than a year after his ouster as C.E.O., Uber still very much retains the character of Travis Kalanick—ubiquitous and brilliant, undoubtedly, but also scattered, petulant, immature, and vulnerable to its own hypercompetitive ambition. I have been reminded of this corporate genealogy frequently over the past few months, amid seemingly innumerable scandals at Uber. Some have been significant, such as a driverless-car fatality, allegations of an Uber driver murdering his passenger, and another Uber executive being disciplined for making sexually suggestive comments. Others have been stranger, but almost metaphorical in their significance, like the reports of an Uber Eats driver caught on-camera stealing someone's French fries(this is a thing), or the passenger who was forced to drive himself home, while his Uber driver was passed out in the front seat because he was too drunk to drive. (Yes, that happens, too.) Dara Khosrowshahi, Uber's current C.E.O., has generally been able to curtail the chaos, but I have to imagine he wakes up some mornings and wonders: what's next? Over the summer, when I asked Khosrowshahi to describe his job, he told me, "It's quite literally like drinking from a fire hose."
But the mother of all scandals erupted this month when Jamal Khashoggi, a Washington Post Global Opinions writer and Saudi dissident, disappeared inside the country's consulate in Istanbul, never to return. It was a horrific and appalling nightmare on the kingdom's hands, and one that inelegantly coincided with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's much-ballyhooed investment conference, Future Investment Initiative, which has become the public ring-kissing ceremony for the global financial elite, virtually all of whom have accepted some form of patronage from the country's vast sovereign wealth fund, the Public Investment Fund.
Khosrowshahi, in particular, found himself caught between condemning the apparent murder of a journalist, and acknowledging the fact that the Public Investment Fund had poured some $3.5 billion into Uber. (Yasir Al Rumayyan, a member of the Public Investment Fund, sits on the company's board.)
Khosrowshahi, to his credit, didn't blink. He pulled out of the conference immediately. That said, as one company insider familiar with the situation explained to me, "It's a lot easier for Uber to make this decision, given that the money is already in Uber's bank account; it's not a new investment the company needs." Nevertheless, Khosrowshahi's dilemma suggests the fact that technology and government and politics are blurring together in unforeseen ways, with once unimaginable consequences.
But it wasn't necessarily all hellacious news for Uber this week. As the Khashoggi crisis unfolded, The Wall Street Journal reported that the company had received proposals from Wall Street banks estimating its initial public offering at a market valuation as high as $120 billion, virtually twice its current private-market valuation, and larger than the combined market capitalizations of General Motors , Ford Motor Company, and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. It's not uncommon for Wall Street bankers to overstate an estimate in the hopes of winning the eventual I.P.O. underwriting business. But even so, the Journal story re-ignited a familiar debate between Uber haters and admirers in Silicon Valley. It was neatly summed up by Bloomberg's Shira Ovide, who pointed out on Twitter an inherent riddle involving the company. "$120 billion sounds nuts but isn't," she said. But then continued: "even a successful I.P.O. at that stratospheric valuation doesn't answer whether Uber is a viable, lasting business."
The Uber insider explained to me that comparing the company to another auto behemoth, like Ford or G.M., is like comparing Amazon to Barnes & Noble. In fact, this person said, you can't even compare Uber to Lyft. Lyft, after all, is a national ride-sharing business. Uber, on the other hand, has a large, global footprint, and is possibly a primordial holding company for a series of future companies, which is what Google attempted to be before spinning its holding company off into Alphabet. Uber already has one of the largest food-delivery platforms around today, and it is expanding its freight business, which has the possibility to grow infinitely. And then there's the driverless car I.P. that the company owns, not to mention the investments in other global ride-sharing services, including Didi Chuxing (Uber's share is north of $10 billion), Yandex in Russia, and others. You add all those things up, the internal argument goes, and you can easily imagine the company being worth double what it was a year ago. "Some people see Uber as a car company," the person said to me. "Uber sees itself as the next potential Amazon."
Still, there are plenty of people who see it as the next potential Yahoo. "Uber is a debt-crippled mirage of a company, worth nothing," the writer Julian Gough posited on Twitter. "Its backers want to get their money out before the onrushing financial crash makes that impossible. Do not buy shares." Gough predicts that rather than dance in a rain cloud of billions, "Uber will go bankrupt within three years."
Gough is gesturing toward a fervent argument within some sectors of Silicon Valley. Unlike Amazon, which has re-invested its profits into its business, Uber is constantly chasing new parts of its old business. For example, a study released last year found that 96 percent of Uber drivers quit working for the company within a year. (It's no wonder, when the company's algorithms are misleading its drivers.) And as Len Sherman of Columbia Business School noted last year, the problem with Uber's entire business model is that it chases an industry that was already financially broken. "The taxi industry that Uber is seeking to disrupt was never profitable when allowed to expand in unregulated markets, reflecting the industry's low barriers to entry, high variable costs, low economies of scale, and intense price competition," Sherman wrote. "Uber's current business model doesn't fundamentally change these structural industry characteristics."
Uber might defend itself against this critique by saying that it is not trying to replace taxis, but rather provide a new platform for logistics altogether, and that includes one in which people no longer need cars. But I'll say this: last summer I tried the no-car-only-Uber-and-Lyft thing, and it was way more expensive than owning a car, and totally and utterly impractical—not to mention the fact that my wife ended up with a Trumpian conspiracy-theorist Uber driver who was insistent that Hillary Clinton was secretly behind Watergate (not kidding) and personally got Richard Nixon impeached (yep!). The one place Uber could be incredibly fruitful, which critics don't criticize, is with trucking and freight deliveries. And as Khosrowshahi told me onstage last week at The Vanity Fair New Establishment Summit, there's a huge business to tap into with grocery delivery—unless Amazon, which owns Whole Foods (which owns a chunk of Instacart), gets there first.
Uber certainly made it through one of the biggest burning balls of corporate excrement I've ever seen when it managed to quell its board chaos, oust its unruly and embattled co-founder, and recruit Khosrowshahi to take over. But that's nothing compared to what it will face in its next chapter when Uber opens its books to go public, hits the public markets, and the dawn of driverless technology truly arrives. Within this time frame, as I have previously reported, many also expect Kalanick to try to retake his company once again. Khosrowshahi, who is set to receive a $120 million bonus if Uber goes public at a $120 billion valuation by 2019, might be perfectly wise to let him do just that.

Divorce sets even the best-laid plans asunder. Your retirement plan is no exception. When separating and continuing through to divorce, your plans for the future may seem up in the air. What will happen to the money you saved in your 401(k) and beyond?
On behalf of Kennedy Law Associates posted in Divorce on Wednesday, December 26, 2018.
North Carolina residents who are filing for divorce may be affected by tax law changes that go into effect on Jan. 1, 2019. These reforms will affect how alimony payments are taxed for newly divorced couples.

During the happier times of your marriage, you loved packing up the car and heading to the Blue Ridge Mountains to spend some time in your cabin. Now that you are planning for a divorce, though, your vacation home could give you some serious headaches.
On behalf of Kennedy Law Associates on Monday, December 3, 2018.
During and after a divorce, there are many things you must consider. Initially, your concerns lie in the formalities of the actual proceedings, such as dividing assets and debts and constructing a parenting plan. Once the dust settles, you can begin getting other parts of your life in order.

psychological self-implicature
Noelle Oxenhandler shows a lot of courage in Eros of Parenthood, 2001 (hereafter: Noelle), by candidly expressing the energies and the exuberance of parenting, but also the ambivalence and darkness. None of it has to do with sexualizing parenting. Though her courage is especially in confronting the boundary between healthy feeling and abuse, her topic is about the intensity of feeling in healthy parenting that others easily (and self-incriminatingly) sexualize, when there's nothing "erotic" about the energized innocence of children and about being attuned to that openly (which she at times very poetically expresses).
Blurbs on the back of her book jacket, by psychologists I'm aware of, praise her. It's a profoundly important book, in my opinion. Too bad it's out of print. (She writes in an email to me that the publisher went out of business soon after the book was published. I've urged her to republish it, a decade later now, with a follow-up epilogue.)
To be fair to life and the world, it's not enough to broadly thematize,
not enough to "deeply" thematize (which is to get highly abstract). Writing privately to a dear friend is enough for my having that fairness, and the friend—better, an intimate—gains a chance to understand a sense of the difference (thematic vis-à-vis actually lived, actually worlded), given appreciable interest in the thematics! (Unlikely.)
There are intimate letters in the world, obviously, and we're insatiable voyeurs, because we want the psychological self-implicature—yet
at a safe distance. It's not about you. It's about her, and you would let yourself entwine and mentally dance through every detail of her that you can obtain—as long as it's not about you. This is because we want
the dark, but with freedom to enter on our own terms.
When I was a kid, I couldn't resist strange woods. My attraction to where I'm not supposed to go is a fascination with why it's supposed. I want
to know what's there. This became psychological. As an adult, my curiosity easily became dangerous, evidently—as if others see in my curiosity a dark center rather than a delighted, well-lit, stable and generous clearing that loves to explore the marginal or "unpermitted" because my center is secure. Persons (not I) can be easily haunted
by a darkness in themselves that my enchantment with marginality evidently "threatens" to educe, as if I unwittingly intuit the other's fears. But it's innocent play, frightening undeliberately. I don't have to have great insight about the other to anyway carry an aura of "too much" marginality, too much pretense of The Mind's self-implicature, in which we all are "at risk" of participating.
But I won't fear the effects of authentic curiosity. I'm not diabolical, not duplicitous; just welcoming chances to appreciate unusual things.
Is it demonic to believe that of myself? Correct me, if I'm wrong.
A better standing against cold winds is made from braving bad weather. But the honest life survives most tests of its validity. So, if you don't engage with me my apparent darkness, don't blame me for believing
I'm innocent in educing yours.
