Cracks intentionally placed,
spaced at regular intervals,

weather conditions.
Hot to cold to hot to cold and so on and so forth.
Grass and weeds fill the cracks.
Removing them improves sidewalk appearance.

Aristotle was the first biologist in the scientific sense.  That is he is the first biologist in the scientific sense for whom we have a record.  Therefore it is possible there were prior biologists in the scientific sense.  He was the first to complete a record of specific observations concerning living matter’s structure and behavior.  He was the first to compile this record within a system and apply theory to this record.

Chiropractic is a system of therapy manipulating the spine.  The spine houses a critical portion of the nervous system.  It is the Interstate Highway carrying neural traffic efficiently back and forth.  The chiropractor makes sure the bridges stay put, the potholes repaired, working with the cause of your health problem instead of its outward effects, removing the subluxation in your spine and allowing the innate healing power of your body to cure naturally, regaining the normal healthy condition nature intended you to have.

Biology is the science of living matter in all its forms.  Biology is the science of living matter in all its phenomena.  Biology is the phenomena of an organism.  Biology is the phenomena of a group of organisms.  Biologists are scientists.  Chiropractors are civil engineers.   They ensure your bridges stay put and potholes repaired, working with the cause of your health problem instead of its outward effects, allowing the innate healing power of your body to cure naturally, regaining the normal healthy condition nature intended you to have.

Stay  in the kitchen,

On Wednesday afternoons my mother drove
into the city with this friend to catch a matinee.
She had ten kids in nine years, this friend.
She talked about the theater incessantly,
and sang its praises ad nauseam.
But she usually missed her exit and was late for their rendezvous
and they found themselves stuck in Tunnel traffic
and couldn’t decide where to park and as a result missed the show.
She moved to Mississippi, this friend.
She writes sometimes to say there is no theater,
but George (that’s her husband) is doing just fine.
Sometimes my mother calls to ask if I would like to see a show.
She is always late, then talks incessantly,
commenting on the decor and costumes, insisting she
knows that actor from somewhere but where
exactly she can’t recall and insists
I surely remember. Then we go to lunch.
She sends back the entree (once) or the silverware (twice).
She says I’d prefer her in Mississippi.

in the course of human events
human events go by
a beacon a city a hill
people order and form
a more perfect union a beacon
in the course of our forefathers
forth on this continent a new
nation under a proposition that we
form a more perfect union dimly
seen through the mists of the deep
the foe’s haughty host dread
silence reposes in the course of
human events it is altogether
fitting and proper that we do this
and form forth a foe’s haughty
have no fear to establish
a beacon a city a hill a dream
fitting rising living
the true meaning of the creed

Stay beneath this bridge
and listen to trains pass overhead.

Water trickles
down steel beams.

Every day means
we’re going to be next
the next place
instantly killing a teacher
a couple of hours later,
wearing a camouflage-netted helmet
conversations about how night fell.
Helicopter gunships devastated
the headquarters police,
the presidential security forces,
the navy, and a maintenance man.
They struck taking certain steps toward openness.
This difficult incident,
several young children.
Schoolgirls have no legs.
No place to hide.
They are for the next place
and the next place.

Good short introduction to the opera, with highlights. From the DVD, Absolute Wilson. 

In 2007, Lou Reed performed his 1973 album Berlin at St. Ann’s in Brooklyn. One of the encores was this stunning rendition of the Velvet Underground’s Candy Says, featuring Antony.
