DÉDALO E ÍCARO.

The myth of Icarus covers topics such as parent-child relationships and the desire of man to go ever further, even at the risk of having to meet face to face with their status as mere human beings.

Perhaps we should borrow a page or two from the left’s protest playbook.

“El pueblo unido jamás será vencido”

“The people united will never be defeated”

It was especially after Pinochet’s September 1973 coup that the group Inti-Illimani (from Chile) made it famous around the world.

Ideas for Skinning the Writing about Reading Cat

To Make a Prairie

By now, we all know the emphasis the Common Core has placed on writing about texts, and we’re also aware of the effects that has had on writing: The writing of poetry has vanished in far too many schools while the five-paragraph essay has become institutionalized as the way to respond to what the Common Core says is “the special place” argument holds in the Standards. And too often this has resulted in writing that’s functional and mechanical but not terribly meaningful or interesting to read.

Patrick Sullivan, the author of the NCTE piece “The UnEssay: Making Room for Creativity in the Composition Classroom,” connects these results with “the kind of reductionism promoted by the Common Core Standards and the powerful, entrenched interest of the testing consortia,” And to push back on these forces, I want to offer some alternative ways for writing about reading.

This is an interesting paper because Morgellons disease is an emerging clinical entity that is usually unknown for the medical practitioner and characterized by the presence of microscopic filaments (in a floral-like formation) associated with slow-healing cutaneous lesions and multisystem illness. The authors consider this disease to be similar to bovine digital dermatitis, which responds to antibiotics and anti-parasitic drugs. This disease has been misdiagnosed as delusional parasitosis, but the patients and cattle included in related studies have demonstrated sero-reactivity to Borrelia burgdorferi antigens and cultures supporting a spirochetal etiology. Now, in this article, by the exposure of the samples to caustic agents, bright-field microscopy at…
