Peoples Choice Comments People’s Choice Results and Comments We have included the People’s Choice results and comments for all growers that participated in classes 1 – 11. This year we had all first-place winners for the green tree classes as the possible candidates for People’s Choice. As this is still a relatively new concept that we have implemented in just the last few years, we are constantly reviewing how to make more trees available for voting throughout the Fair while still making it easy, understandable, fair and efficient for our participating growers, Fair-goers and our staff. If you have any questions or comments regarding People’s Choice voting, please feel free to contact Kim Ustruck ([email protected]) or Danielle Ustruck ([email protected]) and we would be happy to answer any questions and will consider all feedback regarding People’s Choice.

    Vol. 1, No. 2 (2012) The Missed Wisniowska, Magdalena. “Becoming Spirit: Morality in Hegel’s Phenomenology and Bergman’s Through a Glass Darkly,” Evental Aesthetics 1, no. 2 (2012): 56-80. ABSTRACT The following essay brings together philosophy and film. On the one hand, it is a short study of Hegel’s chapter on morality in the Phenomenology of Spirit. On the other hand, it deals with some of the moral conflicts presented in Ingmar Bergman’s 1961 film, Through a Glass Darkly. Central to my discussion is the concept of God. I aim to show how God, manifest in absolute Spirit, should not be understood as a transcendental figure located in a beyond, but as a concrete entity found within the acts of forgiveness and reconciliation. KEYWORDS Hegel, Bergman, morality, conscience, recognition p. 56 Becoming Spirit: Morality in Hegel’s Phenomenology and Bergman’s Through a Glass Darkly Magdalena Wisniowska n the Phenomenology of Spirit, Hegel reveals Spirit’s true nature in Chapter VI. C., “Spirit that is certain of itself. Morality.” Here, he I describes how God manifests in the moment of reciprocal recognition that characterises the acts of forgiveness and reconciliation. As Hegel writes, The reconciling Yea, in which the two ‘I’s let go their antithetical existence, is the existence of the ‘I’ which has expanded into a duality, and therein remains identical with itself, and, in its complete externalisation and opposite, possesses the certainty of itself: it is God manifested in the midst of those who know themselves as pure knowledge.1 With this, morality becomes religion.

  • Chuck Richardson
    BlazeVOX 2k7 an online journal of voice Fall 2007 Chuck Richardson 4. Digressions On A Recurring Dream 6,898 words, 4 percent passive, 71 percent reading ease. It is blistering elsewhere, yet not here as two-dozen friends gather poolside. A hazy skyline shimmering a mirage fogs via remote control dreams of glassy, urban sophistication. The illusion resonates pulp, swimming the couple’s trust in a cultivated hereafter. Do you Jonah, take this woman, Linda, to be your lawful wedded wife? A family court judge and ace trombonist is presiding. He’s sixty and serious, calmly leading the couple through the ritual, just as they’d rehearsed it, with the about-to- be newlyweds standing nude on the diving board, hovering over the deep end. Neither can swim, but their naked friends have rehearsed saving them. I do. And do you, Linda, take this man, Jonah, to be your lawful wedded husband? If so, answer I do. She looks over Jonah, realizing she’s given up hope for someone sexier. Expectations duly lowered, she imagines the one who ditched her standing in Jonah’s place. He, for his part, cannot fathom his good fortune. Linda’s much younger than he, more attractive, even sexy once you get to know her. She’s also mysterious. He feels, much to his obvious excitement, that she’s reading him like a book, her eyes perusing every fold, every gray hair, each blemish and scar—from the inside-out through his eyes. Eye-to-eye exposure is plainly titillating him. I do, she answers, at last, having finished the run-on sentence fragment of material phenomena called fiancé, now husband.

  • The Journal Is Pleased to Present the Original and True Story of Ko'olau the Leper
    The Journal is pleased to present the original and true story of Ko'olau the Leper. The only factual account of a famous episode in Hawaiian history, it was published in Hawaiian in 1906. Frances N. Frazier's English translation appears almost in its entirety for the first time. The True Story of Kaluaiko'olau, or Ko'olau the Leper Translated and with a Foreword by Frances N. Frazier. From an account by John Sheldon. FOREWORD In 1906 in Honolulu, Kahikina Kelekona, or John G. M. Sheldon (fig. 1), published a little book in the Hawaiian language.1 "Offered and dedicated to native Hawaiians," it was the story of Kaluaiko'olau, referred to hereafter as Ko'olau, as told by his wife Pi'ilani (fig. 2). His name may be translated as "the grave at Ko'olau," a commemo- rative name and, as fate would have it, prophetic. Ko'olau and his young son Kaleimanu contracted leprosy at a time when there was no known cure for the disease which was believed to be contagious because of its spread among the Hawaiian race. The Hawaiian government's way of coping with the problem was to attempt to strictly segregate leprosy patients from the rest of the world at Kalawao, on the Island of Moloka'i. Kalawao was the most easterly ahupucfa, a major land division, on a peninsula that projected from the northern side of Moloka'i. The peninsula was effectively cut off by land by forbidding cliffs and surrounded otherwise by rough and dangerous ocean. In later years, the patients were resettled on the drier western side in the ahupua'a of Kalaupapa, and the settlement now bears that name.

I’m 44. My favourite food is chops. I make art to make money. It’s true. So I can have an everyday job. I need people to know that I have a voice and I want to use it. So I do it in the theatre. If you gave me all the money in the world, to make a show. I’d shoot myself. I can’t work under pressure! I make theatre because I want to break free from the demons inside me. Theatre changes me as a person, that’s what theatre does it changes ya’, it is something else, like sliding down a slide. Theatre is about making something special, and rememberable. You have to see it over and over again because every time it is different. You always get excited about the next thing that is going to happen in the theatre. The actors are so soft and beautiful and front-full. And you know that the first line that comes out of their mouth, you won’t forget that line throughout the entire play. What should theatre be like? Never a part two. No interval. Right through an hour show and that’s it.

  • Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
    Acclaim for JOHN BERENDT’s MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL “Uproarious … a rich, irresistible mix of snobbery, mayhem, sex, mind-boggling parochialism and mildewed magnolias. …A glorious vanity fair of human folly.” —The Boston Globe “One of the most unusual books to come this way in a long time and one of the best…. There is every reason to celebrate [t]his surpris- ing, wonderful book.” 3/1013 —Jonathan Yardley, The Wash- ington Post Book World “The best nonfiction novel since In Cold Blood and a lot more en- tertaining…. Berendt’s book has everything going for it—snobbism, ruthless power, voodoo, local color, and a totally evil estheticism. I read it till dawn.” —Edmund White “Raunchy, witty, urbane and scan- dalous … a romp through many worlds—high and low…. For a good time read this book.” —Houston Chronicle “Berendt works up his material like a chef on a devilish mission. The result is a feast all right…. He 4/1013 has the old money down as dead- on as the new—as the no money, for that matter. And here is the highest praise I can muster: Wish I’d written the damn thing.” —Gregory Jaynes, Esquire “Rip-roaringly funny and compel- ling….A veritable Bent-Spoon River of oddballs, hustlers, so- ciopaths and historic preservationists.” —San Francisco Chronicle JOHN BERENDT MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL John Berendt has been the editor of New York magazine and an Esquire columnist.
