Each character struggles with a sense of ambivalence as well as a desire to control and understand her life, and these two reactions produce a conflict. vi "Against my better judgment, I feel certain that very near here--the first house down the road, maybe--there's a good poet dying, but also somewhere very near here someone's having a hilarious pint of pus taken from her lovely young body, and I can't be running back and forth forever between grief and high delight." —Buddy Glass, from J.D.Salinger’s Franny and Zooey vii The Walk “To me, it is not about getting over things and moving forward, it is about going through the sadness, taking some of it with you and being made whole because of it.” —Justine Vernon, mother of Justin Vernon (Bon Iver) Allie parked her white Corolla in front of a tree, turning the key halfway so she could hear the rest of the song. She could feel her jean shorts sticking to the newly deposited globs of fat on her hips and thighs. Last night she’d eaten three pieces of fried chicken and a bowl of macaroni and cheese, and even though she spent all day hauling around coolers and chairs for her brother’s soccer tournament, she didn’t count this as a workout. Colin’s team lost in the final game; she politely averted her eyes as he wept on the way home. Now as she got out of her car, she thought of the boys’ faces as they played, free of emotion, concentrated on just that moment. If she could be that carefree, she would not consider her day a loss, even if she’d lost an infinite amount of games. She had been excited all week, though now a huge part of her wanted it to be three hours from now, when she’d be safe in her bed, free to think things over without the pressure of acting. When she wouldn’t have to worry about making fool of herself, which she’d inevitably do. Her deepest worry was that the night would not live up to her expectations, which others were always telling her were wildly disproportionate to reality. She had tried tempering her excitement by searching through Jeremy’s Facebook for any disparaging, racist or sexist comments he’d made, but he had little activity. On his profile it listed only his email and the few jobs he’d worked, at a sports store and as a lifeguard. All of the pictures posted of him were taken outside, in groups or too far away to see his face. When she saw him her instinct told her to look away, but she forced herself to make eye contact long enough to smile. Jeremy squinted happily into the sun. She let her head hang down as she crossed the dirt parking lot. “What’s up?” he said. He was wearing mesh shorts, flip flops, a t-shirt, and a light blue hat. 1 “Nothing.” She wished she had a better way to answer this question. A sentence that consisted only of the word nothing did not deserve to be spoken. “Great day, huh?” she said. As she smiled she was terrified of some colorful remainder wedged between her teeth from all the candy she ate that day. “A little hot, but definitely nice.” A wall shot up in her mind, preventing her from saying anything stupid. She looked around, nodding vaguely. “You want to walk?” he asked. “Sure.” Eight o’clock was the hottest part of the day in the summer. All the heat that had accumulated during the day seemed to wrap itself around you like a blanket. “How was your day?” asked Jeremy. “Good! I was at my brother’s soccer tournament and he lost. So, that part sucked.” “Too bad.” “Yeah. And I had to listen to my mom talk all day.” “Your mom’s a talker?” He smiled. “I swear she’s got some freak genetics that prevent her mouth or tongue from ever getting tired.” Jeremy laughed, and she felt little bells ringing in her heart. Allie kept wiping her upper lip in case it started sweating. She could hear herself breathing, all the clicks and moans of her inner slime, and she was sure Jeremy heard it too. When you thought about the body, what it was made of and how it really looked, it was pretty revolting. Allie reached back and yanked her hair out of its ponytail. “Hold on a sec,” she said. Flipping her head upside down, she gathered all her lemony-streaked brown hair and wove it quickly in and out of a band. “Hey, you dyed your hair.” “I used lemon juice, so it wouldn’t be too extreme.” She had been afraid to go blonde because her mother told her it wouldn’t match her skin tone. “I like it.” “Thanks. It’ll look better when it starts to grow out.” 2 There weren’t many homeless people out today. They were always offering her little pieces of wisdom; usually it was something so simple she’d overlooked it. Allie actually preferred them to the people she went to school with, who refused to accept any part of themselves that wasn’t sanctioned by Urban Outfitters or some new reality TV show about rich people. There was never anything in the homeless peoples’ tone or words that attempted to disguise what was bad about life. They accepted it as one with the good. They passed a woman reading on a bench. Something about the way she was sitting—one leg up on the bench, the other bent, her hand on her head, elbow pointed out—reminded Allie of someone. She just looked geometrically confused. Allie realized it was her English teacher, Laura. She scooted to the other side of Jeremy and gazed at the bathrooms. While she was in there, ducks liked to waddle under the door and say hello. “That was my English teacher,” said Allie, once they were a little farther away. She subtly pointed. “Sitting on that bench.” Jeremy turned around. “Did you like her?” “She was great at first, but by the end of the class I hated her. I don’t know why.” She laughed. All she knew was that she caught herself hoping bad things happened to her teacher pretty often. “I don’t think she liked teaching very much,” Allie added. “She looks kind of young. Maybe you were her first class.” “We weren’t.” “Oh.” Allie looked down the near empty pathway that led around the lake. Everyone was probably at home, snuggling up into his or her Sunday night routine. Allie hated the dead ache of Sundays, how endless they were, how not even time could relieve you of them. “I had a teacher once who told us he hated teaching. Needless to say, it didn’t make any of the students like the class better.” Allie nodded. She could not stop her mind from going back to her teacher. It was like when someone moved her chair, and she could not stop harping on the small space 3 change until she’d righted it. “Yeah, I even friended her right after the class, and literally two minutes later, she accepted.” Her teacher’s profile shocked her. She was not the self-conscious woman she’d been on Tuesdays and Thursdays from noon to one thirty. Her About Me section had said, “I am no less in love with the world than rain.” “I did like the course material, though.” “Is that the class that made you want to be a writer?” “Actually, I think it had the opposite effect.” “Really? I bet you’re awesome.” Allie faked a smile. “I want to concentrate on film, I think. I really enjoy everything involved in editing, and all the other facets of it. Though for years I’ve wanted to be a writer.” Part of Allie felt proud to be so elastic.

    The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training Foreign Assistance Series HAROLD M. JONES Interviewed by: Self Initial interview date: n/a Copyright 2002 ADST Dedicated with love and affection to my family, especially to Loretta, my lovable supporting and charming wife ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The inaccuracies in this book might have been enormous without the response of a great number of people I contacted by phone to help with the recall of events, places, and people written about. To all of them I am indebted. Since we did not keep a diary of anything that resembled organized notes of the many happenings, many of our friends responded with vivid memories. I have written about people who have come into our lives and stayed for years or simply for a single visit. More specifically, Carol, our third oldest daughter and now a resident of Boulder, Colorado contributed greatly to the effort with her newly acquired editing skills. The other girls showed varying degrees of interest, and generally endorsed the effort as a good idea but could hardly find time to respond to my request for a statement about their feelings or impressions when they returned to the USA to attend college, seek employment and to live. There is no one I am so indebted to as Karen St. Rossi, a friend of the daughters and whose family we met in Kenya. Thanks to Estrellita, one of our twins, for suggesting that I link up with Karen. “Do you use your computer spelling capacity? And do you know the rule of i before e except after c?” Karen asked after completing the first lot given her for editing.

  • A Guide for Developing Community and Individual Walking Programs
    THE AMERICAN COUNCIL ON EXERCISE PRESENTS WALK THIS WAY! A GUIDE FOR DEVELOPING COMMUNITY AND INDIVIDUAL WALKING PROGRAMS Walking_Toolkit_Community_KM.indd 1 10/9/15 3:30 PM The American Council on Exercise (ACE), a leading non-profit health and fitness organization, is dedicated to ensuring that individuals have access to well-qualified health and fitness professionals, as well as science- based information and resources on safe and effective physical activity. Ultimately, we want to empower all Americans to be active, establish healthy behaviors and live their most fit lives. ACE envisions a world in which preventable, lifestyle-related diseases—such as obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and some forms of cancer—are on the decline because people have been understood, educated, empowered, and granted responsibility to be physically active and committed to healthy choices. We are excited that the Surgeon General used the influence of his position to draw attention to physical inactivity—a critical public health issue—and to create a pathway to change the sedentary culture of this nation through his introduction of Step It Up! The Surgeon General’s Call to Action on Walking and Walkable Communities. A CE strongly supports this emphasis on walking and walkable communities as part of our mission and commitment to fighting the dual epidemics of obesity and inactivity, and creating a culture of health that values and supports physically active lifestyles. But we know that we can’t accomplish our mission alone. Creating a culture of health will require the focus of policymakers, the dedication of fitness professionals, and the commitment of individuals to live sustainable, healthy lifestyles.

  • Visiting Griffin at the Confluence of Playwriting, Ethics and Spirit: Towards Poet(H)Ic Inquiry in Research-Based Theatre
    Visiting Griffin at the Confluence of Playwriting, Ethics and Spirit: Towards Poet(h)ic Inquiry in Research-based Theatre by Heather Anne Duff B.A., York University, 1979 M.Div., McMaster University, 1983 M.F.A., The University of British Columbia, 1986 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Language and Literacy Education) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) September, 2016 © Heather Anne Duff, 2016 Abstract Poet(h)ic inquiry is a pedagogical space of inquiry at the confluence of playwriting, ethics and spirit, in the context of research-based theatre. It is an inquiry about presences and absences: the yu-mu (Aoki, 2000) within ethico-spiritual dilemmas, with respect to (1) an ethic of meaning, (2) individual and social justice, (3) aesthetic values, (4) an ethic of respect (Tuhiwai Smith, 2005) regarding authorship, and (5) integrated ethical relationality in contexts of teaching-learning-creativity-playwriting-knowing. Within arts-based research, there are notable ethical gaps (Boydell et al., 2012; Gallagher, 2007b; White & Belliveau, 2010) related to a quest for ethicality (Denzin, 2006; Norris, 2009), meaning (Frankl, 1946/2004), and hope-based, emancipatory pedagogy (Freire, 2006) within located social justice. Research-based theatre (Belliveau, 2015; Goldstein, 2012; Lea & Belliveau, 2015; Lea at al., 2011; Norris 2009; Prendergast & Belliveau, 2013; Saldaña, 2005, 2011), which aims to balance aesthetics with instrumental purposes (Jackson, 2005), is well positioned for ethics-situated inquiry, within a plethora of psycho-spiritual, socio-political, and geo- historical contexts. My dissertation play, Visiting Griffin, expresses the interplay between memory and present time.
