  • Escaping Eden
    Escaping Eden Chapter 1 I wake up screaming. Where am I? What’s going on? Why do I feel so cold? It’s dark. I look around, blinking sleep from my eyes. I notice a window somewhere in the back of the room. It’s open and moonlight shines through, casting a square beam of light across the floor. A breeze drifts in, and white curtains float like pale ghosts in the darkness. In the narrow light of the moon, I see that the carpet is burgundy. I also see the outlines of furniture. My head vaguely aching, I look at the shadows scattered messily across the room. I feel like sweeping them up to make room for light. I shake off the urge. Stop being delusional. There’s a funny smell in the air, ​ ​ like a mixture of old home mustiness and laboratory sterilization. I realize that I’m lying on the floor. Why am I not on the bed? ​ The last thing I remember is pain. Maybe that’s why I woke up screaming. The ​ ​ pain was intense. The pain was… cold. I decide to swallow my fear. It tastes terrible. ​ I stand up and my neck aches. As I rub my hand across it, my bones crack like I haven’t moved in a long time. I whisper to myself. “As Grandpa always said…” My train of thought rolls off into the distance. Where was I going with this? Who is “Grandpa”? I put my hand on my sweaty ​ forehead. I must be tired. I look for a light switch by approaching the walls and groping ​ ​ around.

  • Starstone, a Jewel Rider Fanfic by Stormdance
    Author's note from 2012: This story was written 1995 or thereabouts. I present it here unaltered, for the nostalgic enjoyment of my past fans who requested I post it. Please remember, if this reads like a high-schooler with her first Mary Sue, well, that's exactly what I was! Scroll to the end for a special bonus look at the Trina sequel stories that never saw the light of day! Since then Jewel Riders has changed hands a few times; I think Digiview owns the rights at the moment so please pretend I updated the disclaimers. My old email no longer works; I'm now [email protected] if for some reason you want to email me. Starstone, a Jewel Rider fanfic by Stormdance Disclaimer: Everyone you’ve seen on TV belongs to Amazin Entertainment and/or Robert Mandell as far as I know. Trina, Silverwind, and anyone else are mine. I’m not making any money off this. Author’s note: Hiya all, I’m Stormdance and I’m to blame for the story you’re here to read. There *will* eventually be a Jewel Riders homepage connected to the story, but that’ll be in the future when I can get a computer literate family member to help me make it. While I didn’t knowingly contradict anything in the show, there are episodes I haven’t seen so I’m sure I slipped up somewhere. A lot of this is me writing the way things *might* have happened, especially Fallon and Tamara’s pasts and details about magic and Avalon.

    Sunday, September 18, 2016 at 9:54:26 PM Eastern Daylight Time Subject: FW: Commi)ee to Establish Principles on Renaming Date: Monday, August 1, 2016 at 12:13:30 PM Eastern Daylight Time From: Wilkinson, Steven To: Wi), John, Gage, Beverly Dear John and Bev, I am very glad this commi)ee has been appointed. As you are the two people I know best on the commi)ee I hope you don’t mind my wriPng with my thoughts. I signed the le)er this spring urging Calhoun be renamed. Calhoun should be renamed in my view primarily because there is a disPncPon between someone who was a fellow traveler in the prejudices of the age, no ma)er how difficult, abhorrent or unpopular we might find those prejudices today, and someone who devoted the larger part of his poliPcal career to furthering and enunciaPng views that are at odds with some of the core values (equal treatment, jusPce, non-racism) of Yale as an educaPonal insPtuPon. In honoring him we are inescapably honoring Calhoun’s role in his poliPcal project. And that central role cannot be balanced out, as it is with many other figures, with many other achievements that are more admirable. I acknowledge that there is a second powerful argument that has also been made about renaming. That honoring Calhoun with a college in which his memory is projected causes faculty and students hurt, especially those who must live and work in Calhoun. I find that argument important and worthy of respect, but less compelling than the first set of arguments.

  • 580. Kenney, Elizabeth
    Japanese Journal of Religious Studies 2000 27/3–4 Shinto Funerals in the Edo Period Elizabeth KENNEY Nowadays very few people in Japan have a Shinto funeral. But things might have turned out differently if Shinto activists during the Edo and Meiji periods had achieved their goal of making the Japanese way of death the “kami way,” or making Shinto the Japanese way of death. This article presents a detailed look at the mortuary rites for two Shinto priests, one of whom died in the late sixteenth century and the other in the mid-eighteenth century. The ³rst case is the earliest recorded example of a Shinto funeral. The second case, of no particular historical signi³cance, is a funeral that was in part an attempt to replicate the funerals of Japanese mythology. Neither case can be deemed typical, and each is interesting precisely for its speci³city. This article concludes with a look at a short essay by another Shinto priest who loathed Shinto funerals. Keywords: Shinto funerals — mortuary rites — Yoshida Shinto — Hashimoto Tsunesuke — monomasa — Amewakahiko DURING THE LATE EDO and early Meiji periods, politicians and ideo- logues reshaped Japan into a country both ancient and modern; the “ancient” part was “Shinto.” In a paradox well explored by KETELAAR (1990), the project of incorporating ancient Shinto into the modern state actually entailed inventing new old ways of Shinto, including funeral rituals. The few Western-language studies of Shinto funerals have analyzed them largely in terms of their political and ideological role during the Meiji Restoration (HARDACRE 1989; KETELAAR 1990; BERNSTEIN 1999).
