Out with the Grungy, Socialism-Preaching City Park volume 12 - issue 4 - tuesday, september 24, 2012 - uvm, burlington, vt uvm.edu/~watertwr - thewatertower.tumblr.com by rebeccalaurion Quick confession before we begin: I’m not a huge gamer. However, 90 percent of my friends are, and my earliest memory of my father is watching him play Final Fan- tasy. So even though I wasn’t one of the people who spent my weekend download- ing Borderlands 2 or Torchlight 2, I can still deeply appreciate what game culture has done for me. I’ve met some of my best friends through Meta-Gaming Club, and, even though I consider myself a huge geek, just in diff erent ways, gaming wasn’t exact- ly on my radar until college. As such, I’ve learned quite a bit about the world of gaming, whether I have enjoyed it or not. For one thing, a ‘gamer’ doesn’t necessarily mean an acne-ridden virgin draped in wizard robes in their mother’s basement. Th ough, that’s not to say that never happens anymore. A gamer can be anyone from someone religiously playing Angry Birds on their phone or any devoted fan waiting outside Game Stop during all hours of the night for the newest consoles ben berrick or Halo installments. by phoebefooks and patrickmurphy As a whole, I think we can all agree that stereotypes are stupid as hell.

Because many regard it as sacred ground, it is actively protected and managed by the Forest Service as a cultural landscape.

Entitled Escape Fire, Dr. Berwick’s speech took its audience back to the year 1949, when a wildfire broke out on a Montana hillside, taking the lives of 13 young men and changing the way firefighting was managed in the United States.

    1 Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) A Lodging for the Night (1877) It was late in November, 1456. The snow fell over Paris with rigorous, relentless persistence; sometimes the wind made a sally and scattered it in flying vortices; sometimes there was a lull, and flake after flake descended out of the black night air, silent, circuitous, interminable. To poor people, looking up under moist eyebrows, it seemed a wonder where it all came from. Master Francis Villon had propounded an alternative that afternoon, at a tavern window: was it only pagan Jupiter plucking geese upon Olympus? or were the holy angels moulting? He was only a poor Master of Arts, he went on; and as the question somewhat touched upon divinity, he durst not venture to conclude. A silly old priest from Montargis, who was among the company, treated the young rascal to a bottle of wine in honour of the jest and grimaces with which it was accompanied, and swore on his own white beard that he had been just such another irreverent dog when he was Villon's age. The air was raw and pointed, but not far below freezing; and the flakes were large, damp, and adhesive. The whole city was sheeted up. An army might have marched from end to end and not a footfall given the alarm. If there were any belated birds in heaven, they saw the island like a large white patch, and the bridges like slim white spars on the black ground of the river. High up overhead the snow settled among the tracery of the cathedral towers.

  • 1 Leo N. Tolstoy (1828-1910) God Sees the Truth, but Waits (1906)
    1 Leo N. Tolstoy (1828-1910) God Sees the Truth, But Waits (1906) Translated By Aylmer Maude In the town of Vladimir lived a young merchant named Ivan Dmitrich Aksionov. He had two shops and a house of his own. Aksionov was a handsome, fair-haired, curly-headed fellow, full of fun, and very fond of singing. When quite a young man he had been given to drink, and was riotous when he had had too much; but after he married he gave up drinking, except now and then. One summer Aksionov was going to the Nizhny Fair, and as he bade good-bye to his family, his wife said to him, “Ivan Dmitrich, do not start to-day; I have had a bad dream about you.” Aksionov laughed, and said, “You are afraid that when I get to the fair I shall go on a spree.” His wife replied: “I do not know what I am afraid of; all I know is that I had a bad dream. I dreamt you returned from the town, and when you took off your cap I saw that your hair was quite grey.” Aksionov laughed. “That's a lucky sign,” said he. “See if I don't sell out all my goods, and bring you some presents from the fair.” So he said good-bye to his family, and drove away. When he had travelled half-way, he met a merchant whom he knew, and they put up at the same inn for the night. They had some tea together, and then went to bed in adjoining rooms.
