After receiving support from over 70 local activists who supported free speech issues by refusing to serve long-term jail terms after serving time at home including all three of these charges, he spent most of 2012 advocating constitutional changes prohibiting states from making it harder or worse for criminals if convicted based solely on criminal background checks obtained through online crime statisticswhile still failing even though many individuals faced significant civil rights abuses during police custody as welled.29 The group gained broad popular appeal when prosecutors successfully executed several federal efforts aimed specifically at crack cocaine dealers using data collected previously provided largely unverified reports regarding assaults committed outside Maryland3132.

  • As We Kicked Off the New Millennium, Readers of This
    s we kicked off the new Amillennium, readers of this magazine cast their ballots to elect the ten most influential magicians of the 20th century. Although there were some sur- prises, few could argue with the top two — Harry Houdini and Dai Vernon. While scores of books have been written about Houdini, David Ben has spent the past five years prepar- ing the first detailed biography of Dai Vernon. What follows is a thumbnail sketch of Vernon’s remarkable life, legacy, and con- tribution to the art of magic. BY DAVID BEN Scene: Ottawa admired performers such as T.

  • LISA MENNA a Superstition by Chloe Olewitz PHOTO by JACQUE
    LISA MENNA a Superstition By Chloe Olewitz PHOTO BY JACQUE MENNA Lisa, age 17, performing for Muhammad Ali at the 1982 Desert Magic Seminar Lisa Menna was one of the last to compete at the Las Vegas Desert Magic Seminar’s open close- up session in 1982, when she was 17 years old. It was a long day, and she remembers how the checked-out audience had perked up at the sight of a young woman in a white, form-fitting, knit dress. Waiting in the wings before her set, Menna noticed a celebrity sitting in the front row that no one had called on yet. She decided to go for it, and walked straight toward him to ask, “Could you please come help me?” Whatever attention she had gotten for being a gender anomaly in the 20- person close-up competition was dwarfed by the fact that the girl had just picked Muhammad Ali. When he joined her on stage, Menna doubled down on her carefree clown character. “Hi! My name’s Lisa! What’s your name?” She had no idea that her feigned innocence would get such a big reaction. “My name’s Joe,” Ali responded. “Joe Frazier.” More laughter. “Gosh Joe, you sure have big hands,” Menna said. The room erupted. Menna was born in Connecticut in 1964. When she was four years old, her family relocated to St. Louis, where she encountered magical clown Steve “Ickle Pickle” Bender at her older brother’s birthday party. When she was seven, Menna received her first magic set as a gift from her mother, who during her own youth had mailed in 57 Popsicle wrappers collected over the course of a single summer in exchange for a set of multiplying billiard balls.

  • Reception and Adaptation: Magic Tricks, Mysteries, Con Games
    Reception and Adaptation: Magic Tricks, Mysteries, Con Games by Joseph Daniel Culpepper A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto © Copyright by Joseph Daniel Culpepper 2014 Reception and Adaptation: Magic Tricks, Mysteries, Con Games Joseph Daniel Culpepper Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Comparative Literature University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This study of the reception and adaptation of magic tricks, murder mysteries, and con games calls for magic adaptations that create critical imaginative geographies (Said) and writerly (Barthes) spectators. Its argument begins in the cave of the magician, Alicandre, where a mystical incantation is heard: "Not in this life, but in the next." These words, and the scene from which they come in Tony Kushner's The Illusion, provide the guiding metaphor for the conceptual journey of this dissertation: the process of reincarnation. The first chapter investigates the deaths of powerful concepts in reader-response theory, rediscovers their existence in other fields such as speech-act theory, and then applies them in modified forms to the emergent field of performance studies. Chapter two analyzes the author as a magician who employs principles of deception by reading vertiginous short stories written by Jorge Luis Borges. I argue that his techniques for manipulating the willing suspension of disbelief (Coleridge) and for creating ineffable oggetti mediatori (impossible objects of proof) suggest that fantastic literature (not magical realism) is the nearest literary equivalent to experiencing magic performed live. With this Borgesian quality of magic's reality-slippage in mind, cross-cultural and cross-media comparisons of murder mysteries and con games are made in chapter three.

  • Max-Malini-By-David-Ben-Courtesy
    BY DAVID BEN LE C CIR C HE MAGI T COURTESY OF COURTESY 44 GENII Malini. Max Malini. For many of us, particularly those of my generation who were introduced to Malini through the pages of the Stars of Magic and the works of Dai Vernon, the name Malini conjur- ers up the image of a bold, brash, itinerant magician—the last of the mountebanks—who performed parlor magic and close-up magic par excellence. With an abundance of audacity, broken-English, and a guttural voice with an Eastern-European accent, Malini toured the world, performing for the rich and famous. Even more intriguing, Malini had few confidants and what we know of him, and his work, is primar- ily from the previously mentioned works, par- ticularly those associated with Vernon and, in more recent years, from Charlie Miller and his protégé, John Thompson. OCTOBER 2012 45 MY OWN INTEREST AND UNDERSTANDING of Malini, however, took a seismic shift when I embarked on the journey that is Dai Vernon: A Biography. Vernon, of course, acknowledged Malini as being of the utmost influence. Malini was the “M” in the “J.K.L. and M,” the four per- formers—Jarrow, Keane, Leipzig, and Malini—who had a profound effect on Vernon’s development and his understanding of what constituted magic—ele- gant sleight-of-hand performed naturally but with lasting impact. As I sourced material for the Vernon biography I came a sizeable file on Malini and his magic. Hopefully, one across thousands of letters by and about Vernon, his influ- day, someone will write a book about Malini.
