Like most who are passionate about beach glass, you will develop an eye for fi nding hidden gems. A wonderful example of this is Linda Mickevicius, who co-owns Beach Bum Jewels with her daughter, Jamie Slutzken, in Michigan City’s Uptown Arts District. As avid boaters, the Mickeviciuses have friends who lived along the lake. In their home were nu- merous jars of beach glass, which she recalls think- ing, “OK, I don’t get why that’s exciting.” Enjoying being outdoors and by the water, they eventually began collecting those shards of glass. “We said, wow this is a piece of a coke bottle glass that is really, really old and frosty,” Mickevicius said. “Or this is a red piece that was a taillight from a car, when taillights were glass. Or this is a bottom of a Clorox bottle.” Uranium Dioxide causes this beach glass to glow under black light in the dark. Now, they were collecting a variety of glass, but it was not until her then young granddaughter found extremely large beach glass at Mount Baldy that they became truly hooked. “When she picked that piece up, it was like, oh my God! That is incredible! It’s so big and turquoise and curved,” Mickevicius said. From then on, there was no turning back.

  • Sarah Canterbury Remembering Sophia Jane I Heard a Faint Stream of Notes Carried by Piano Keys, Dusty Keys That Journeyed Upstairs
    Canterbury 1 Sarah Canterbury Remembering Sophia Jane I heard a faint stream of notes carried by piano keys, dusty keys that journeyed upstairs into my bedroom and through my almost closed door. My family’s long neglected piano was desperately out of tune, so each note was a little sharp, and a sort of sour sound lingered but I could still make out “Amazing Grace.” The familiar church hymn rose and alarmed me, not because it was music or because the hymn echoed through my home, but because someone was playing our piano, actually playing it, which hadn’t happened in a long time. The hymn filled the hall that opened up below my room and it must have ventured into the rest of the house, the way it had years before when my brother Luke still played. I don’t remember how old I was, or how I ventured down towards it. Maybe I was still a child and ran unafraid of what I didn’t know, or maybe I slowly walked to the piano, nervous to find out who crafted the echoing hymn. I found my grandma Jane, my dad’s mom at the piano. She sat oddly far away from the keys and stared at a blank metal music stand. Her feet stretched out to work the pedals and her swollen fingers drifted along the keys, like all she knew how to do in life was play that piano, and that song. I stared for a while as she played so clearly and looked so lost, “That’s really good,” I said making her stop and gaze at me.

  • Tracklist 01
    Artist: Untold Title: Black Light Spiral Cat: HEK023 Format: Vinyl / Digital Release Date: 24 February 2014 Label: Hemlock Recordings One sweaty hot week in July 2013, Untold ripped into creating his new album, Black Light Spiral, having discovered a land so full of jolts and thrills that the beats wrote themselves and the sounds just kept on coming. The final 40 minute, 8 track album, is as true to the furious and fiery journey Untold (aka Jack Dunning) personally went on as you could hope for. It’s unhindered, spontaneous and completely raw. As perfectly imperfect as a trip like this should be. And you’ll be left gasping for air. Wondering “what the fuck is this music I’ve just heard?” Which is classic Untold. We’ve come to expect the unexpected from him. From day one, with tracks like Kingdom, Anaconda and Stop What You’re Doing, Untold has been an inventor and tastemaker. Today with two iconic record labels to his name, Hemlock and Pennyroyal, his imagination and openness to the new strides on. And Black Light Spiral, Untold’s first album released on Hemlock, continues in the same spirit. It delivers on Untold’s mission to keep the people up and at it with rough tough music while confounding them with brilliantly executed improbabilities. Untold was raised on Jungle and Hardcore, has travelled through Dubstep and leftfield Techno and now he’s arrived here where he’s playing with sub bass, sirens, reggae samples and broken rhythms. But this isn’t token rave revivalism. Because while Untold may be experienced in the best raw genres dance music has to offer, he has no desire to defer back ad infinitum.

    Perfectly Imperfect: Law Students with Non-Apparent Disabilities and Disability Law By Angélica Guevara A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Lisa García Bedolla, Chair Professor Kris Gutiérrez Professor Bertrall Ross Spring 2019 © Copyright by Angélica Guevara 2019 Abstract Perfectly Imperfect: Law Students with Non-Apparent Disabilities and Disability Law By Angélica Guevara Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Berkeley Professor Lisa García Bedolla, Chair How does disability rights law map on to the lives of law students with non-apparent disabilities? This case study uses legal analysis of case law to show how the law maps on to the lives of two law students with non-apparent disabilities. The study takes place in one public law school in California. It explores the prevalence of the stigma surrounding disability in law school compelling law students to continue trying to pass as able-bodied, sending a constant message that their unique gifts and perspective do not matter, as long as they continue to pass. The Department of Justice’s Operation Varsity Blues is prosecuting one of the largest college admission scams of wealthy students faking disabilities, makes this study all the more relevant adding to the stigma around non-apparent disabilities; viewing such students as frauds trying to game the system, not smart, and a drain of resources. The challenges in recruiting for the study highlighted the deep-rooted fear in talking about their disability all the more supported by legal precedent that acknowledged “professional stigma” if a student is found out.

Like hooks, I see positive potential for love to reshape social practices. In a world that was not structured by gender inequality, the reasons provided by love might be noble and fully justifying. In Romania, access by single women is frowned upon, and not included in state funded programs. Common Assumptions about Emotion Love is often thought to be an emotion, a matter of feeling rather than reason, of the heart rather than the head. Skip to main content. Liam and Jamie play lots of fun Faced with the difficulties of sharing mundane household tasks while keeping the relationship passionate, they rearrange their intimate relationships in a way more likely to allow them both equality in the home, and passion in their romantic connections. Ferdinand, ap. By hiding this expectation behind the portrayal of romantic love as an uncontrollable emotion, we collectively prevent ourselves from taking responsibility for placing romantic love on such a high pedestal — and for accepting that it is thus elevated.

I’ll be damned if I can decide which introduction to use for the The U- Haul Adventures, so I’ll leave the choice to you. Simply select your favorite intro, and inform me of your choice via mail or email. I’ll tally the votes and the most popular introduction will be the one that everyone reads! Tally ho! Mike #1 - For those who like the literary approach: “A prologue is written last but placed first to explain the book's shortcomings and to ask the reader to be kind. But a prologue is also a note of farewell from a writer to his book. For years the writer and his book have been together—friends or bitter enemies but very close as only love and fighting can accomplish. ” —John Steinbeck, Journal o f a Novel #2 - For those who dig the dry details: The U-Haul Adventures could be accurately subtitled “Columns I Wrote for Other Zines That My Friends Never Got to Read, Along with New Stuff I Wrote for Tour.” Last summer I went through the box in which I keep copies of zines I’ve written for. Flipping through the stack I realized that most of my friends never had a chance to read the columns, and never would given that all but one of the zines is now extinct. (Josh Rutledge’s fab Now Wave being the noteworthy exception.) And that’s not right because I often write with my friends in mind.
