Fleas on the Dog Complete Issue Three FLEAS ON THE DOG COMPLETE ISSUE 3 403 P./115,286 WORDS 46 SUBMISSIONS 1 WELCOME ! Issue 3 July 1, 2019 Sure size isn’t everything but we still like it when people think we have a BIG…um…Issue. And a BIG issue it is! Welcome to Fleas on the Dog. We’re a no frills, brown bag online lit rag. (We like to think we’re underground with our heads sticking out.) We don’t care about pretty pictures or fancy layouts. We’re interested in one thing and one thing only: GOOD WRITING! Our lone mandate is quality which means if your mother likes your writing we probably won’t. A special feature we are introducing with Issue 3 is HOTS--‘hands off the submissions!’ As you peruse the stories and articles you will notice that each has a different look. That’s because we upload our accepted submissions exactly as received. We like this approach because it creates a sense of visual diversity and emphasizes the writer as an individual in a way a uniform format does not. Similarly, while we occasionally soft edit, in some stories we don’t correct typos or grammar glitches in the interest of voice authenticity. We’re proud to announce that three writers are making their publishing debut in this issue. Congratulations to Rachel Adams, Lou Morrison and Tom Smith! And among our roster of distinguished veteran writers we are honoured to feature the 2017 Mona Schreiber Prize Winner for Humorous Fiction and Nonfiction (Debbie Miller), Poetry in the Arts First Place Award and Dorfman Prize winner (Gerard Sarnat), First Prize winner Autumn House Press Fiction Award (Ashley Cowger), the 2017 Lorien Prize winner (Howie Good), the 2 times winner of the Excellent Awards from Ohio Arts Council (Ivars Balkits) and 2 Pushcart Prize nominees (W. Tyler Paterson and Dennis Pahl). It’s a big fresh lineup with lots of diversity and talent that rocks. We hope you enjoy it. Until we meet again in Issue 4, spread the love and remember, READ is the best four letter word in the world.

The consequences of this unstoppable advance are both frightening and exciting. When it comes to writing, sometimes genre fiction—speculative, sci/fi, dystopian-- is a more amenable avenue to address the concerns of the future—our future, than the more traditional literary routes. We can’t think of any better example of this than ‘Artificial Mother’. And while in the very best stories we don’t believe you can really isolate style from content, we admit to being spellbound by the author’s translucent prose, fluent voice and the effortless facility with which she summons images and le bon mot. A superlative experimental short story that left us star struck. When you try to imagine the birth, you imagine it more as a retrieval than a sudden appearance brought on by hours of maternal agony; unlike your birth and that of every other baby for thousands of generations, this one will not require hours of physical suffering. No element of surprise. Your baby will have evolved before your eyes, that is, if you visit regularly as suggested in the coming weeks. Talk to the baby—that should be especially easy considering the baby is suspended like a lovely seahorse for anyone to see. Don't hold back, for she can hear you. Sing to her and then watch for a response. New Birth means greater transparency. Mimic a natural pregnancy if you hope to form a bond before arrival. Arrival. Emergence. Which word best describes New Birth birth? “Arrival” and “emergence” can be used 8 interchangeably to denote the appearance of something new. Nothing can quite compare to observing close-up and personal your baby’s growth from conception to emergence; that's right--you decide that you prefer the sound of the word "emerge" and all that it connotes. Traditional mothers claimed they felt their baby's growth within their bellies, but you can't help but balk at that sentiment. You get to witness your baby's transformation before your very eyes. That's right, she's your baby despite the distance between her body and yours. At first, you feel a bit self-conscious, cooing and cawing and making your best baby noises, even though there is no one else in the holding room but you and her. Just behind the biobag on the wall hangs a diagram of gestation from Week 1 to Week 28. Tiny as a pea, you are relieved to see that your baby is just the right size for Week 8. The perfect artificial pregnancy. No physical discomfort, unpleasantness, or ill effects; no nausea or vomiting. No pelvic pressure, no itchy, expanding belly. At Week 12, you play your choice of music in place of pre-recorded lullabies that mimic the human heartbeat. This set-up is well intentioned but an obvious hold over from traditional pregnancies. With neither you nor the baby possessing one, you decide that to continue playing musical rhythms similar to the human heartbeat would be pointless if not deceiving. Still, you agree that music is the universal language no matter the advancements, and so you play a variety with rhythms, beats and melodies conveying a range of emotions, from melancholy to elation, resignation to confusion. You play your favorite albums on the antique record player that they permitted you to set up in the private hospital room, wishing to expose your baby to the musical richness 9 of your childhood. You are quite pleased to see signs of excitement: the baby jolts, and like a betta fish gulping underwater, her mouth rounds into an O of pure joy. In the ensuing weeks, you play music of various eras from before the Change: Wagner’s Faust Overture; Billie Holiday’s Essential Rare Collection; Mariya Takeuchi’s Variety; Keith Jarrett’s Koln Concert, circa 1975, the year your own mother was born. You close your eyes and imagine piano fingers lilting across the keys with speed and grace. Taking particular pleasure in exuberant bursts of “Ooh” and “Aah,” you lift the needle and set it down on to repeat that part, hoping the fetus will sense the joyous human energy.

    pubs.acs.org/est Article Impacts of Aviation Emissions on Near-Airport Residential Air Quality Neelakshi Hudda,* Liam W. Durant, Scott A. Fruin, and John L. Durant Cite This: https://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acs.est.0c01859 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: Impacts of aviation emissions on air quality in and around residences near airports remain underexamined. We measured gases (CO, CO2, NO, and NO2) and particles (black carbon, particle-bound aromatic hydrocarbons, fine particulate matter fi (PM2.5), and ultra ne particles (reported using particle number concentrations (PNC) as a proxy)) continuously for 1 month at a residence near the Logan International Airport, Boston. The residence was located under a flight trajectory of the most utilized runway configuration. We found that when the residence was downwind of the airport, the concentrations of all gaseous and particulate pollutants (except PM2.5) were 1.1- to 4.8-fold higher than when the residence was not downwind of the airport. Controlling for runway usage and meteorology, the impacts were highest during overhead landing operations: average PNC was 7.5-fold higher from overhead landings versus takeoffs on the closest runway. Infiltration of aviation-origin emissions resulted in indoor PNC that were comparable to ambient concentrations measured locally on roadways and near highways. In addition, ambient NO2 concentrations at the residence exceeded those measured at regulatory monitoring sites in the area including near-road monitors. Our results highlight the need for further characterization of outdoor and indoor impacts of aviation emissions at the neighborhood scale to more accurately estimate residential exposures.

    Issue 79 Apr 2018 FREE SLAP Supporting Local Arts & Performers WORCESTER’S NEW INDEPENDENT ITALIAN RESTAURANT Traditional Italian food, cooked the Italian way! We create all dishes in our kitchen, using only the finest quality fresh ingredients. 01905 729 415 [email protected] SUGO at The Lamb & Flag 30 The Tything Worcester WR1 1JL f. t. i. Let’s get the bad news out of the way first: it’s no April fool to find that The Session Worcester will be closed by the end of the month. Local business men and music lovers Al & Moz have put their heart and soul (and finances!) into this rehearsal space and all round musical hub for the last thirteen years, but rising costs, and a failure to be able to negotiate a level playing field for business rates, has led to the inevitable. While SLAP recognises that government backing for the arts is not necessarily a good thing, providing an environment for the Apr2018 creative industries to flourish certainly is. Now to more positive matters. SLAP 79’s front cover features Nth Cave’s Danni and Fergus performing for Uncover’s International Women’s day at the Marr’s Bar – see the review on p21. While we’re on the subject of diversity we feature a SLAP MAGAZINE smorgasbord of artistic endeavour across the region – from Unit 3a, Lowesmoor Wharf, ‘The Ring’ arts project celebrating Worcestershire’s waterways Worcester WR1 2RS to ‘Focus on Folk’ revelling in the sheer number of clubs Telephone: 01905 26660 popping up. Folk gets another fillip with a preview of Rustic Folk festival in Bewdley showcasing our very own former cover stars [email protected] Doozer McDooze and The Humdrum Express among many EDITORIAL others.
