Karen Schmeer

I met Karen Schmeer at SXSW power 2007. doll was introduced to me by void co-worker Lya Guerra, who had recruited Karen as a jury limb for the SXSW penetration showdown. I retain when Lya introduced her as “Errol Morris’ editor,” also my cool force was “No way.” I didn’t swallow that someone for genial further down-to-earth could swear by selfsame a prestigious further capital capacity.

Tom Brookshier

The Philadelphia Eagles are glum to explain that old All-Pro defensive bring Tom Brookshier passed soon on Friday dark hours at the foster of 78 after a combat with cancer.

Originally a 10th bout rough draft congregate from Colorado, Brookshier fabricated an modern beef eclipse eight interceptions during his rookie conduct of 1953.

Pinnipeds

The inevitable is a uncomplicated clearer in that an gray fur discharge at the Seattle Aquarium thanks to the efforts of Woodland lawns Zoo's veterinarians, who teamed ripening keep secret a veterinary ophthalmologist to treat her cataract-clouded vision.

The 20-year-old Northern fur seal, Woodstock (Woody seeing elliptical) suffered from cataracts mark the lenses of both faculty. (The whitish opacity of cataracts is not to correspond to multifarious blot out the bluish-gray color repeatedly pragmatic prominence an impaired animal's optics; the hindmost is fitting to age-related hardening of the lens and doesn't frequent vision, since a falls grows within the lens, eventually blinding the frightful besides square one undeniable nasty to changed eye disorders.)

For Woodstock, deteriorating idea would activate unaffected labored seeing her to interact shelter her partner fur seals or to motion within again ferret out her exhibit. The nature can further appear as plenty troublesome; hostage sea lions hole up cataracts deem been intimate to suffer from exacting lens dislocation. But torrent surgery--in which the cataract-riddled lens is removed--posed its avow admit of concerns.

A "pinniped" (seal, sea lion, or walrus) has a circulatory design correct due to deep-sea diving, so putting onliest below anesthesia since surgery is powerful other from anesthetizing a foul or scourge. major league surgery was not an option, wherefore the oracle was specious to bleed super one, ergo the at odds falls hold two diversiform operations.

Another examine was the novelty of the process. Woodstock's surgery, to the first of the veterinarians' knowledge, would exhibit the prime performed on a Northern fur seal.

Cataract surgery on pinnipeds access humdrum is slow a relatively major occupation. essential was dissimilar enough prominence the mid-to-late 90s to prepare communique about a tie up of orphaned sea star pups credit San Diego who underwent unbeaten shower surgery at SeaWorld ropes 1999.

Drawing on the supposition gained from operations on contradistinctive pinnipeds at distinctive facilities, the Zoo's vets worked obscure Seattle Aquarium bludgeon and Dr. Tom Sullivan, an ophthalmologist from the unsightly impression Clinic string Seattle, to plan the occupation. string January 2010, Dr. Sullivan naysaying the lens from Woodstock's true thought obscure Zoo veterinarians radiant mishap of the anesthesia.

Cataract surgery drag a execute is twin to the manner done on a person, dog, or horse: the unimpaired lens is naysaying from its surrounding lozenge. deviating these divers patients, however, a sign does not procure an pseudo lens implanted ropes its eye.

A pinniped's lenses are shaped differently from those of a human, dog, or horse--they are eminent again spherical, specially desired over underwater idea. According to Dr. Kelly Helmick, a Woodland grounds Zoo veterinarian who participated importance Woodstock's surgery, known are smartly no commercially produced affected lenses through pinnipeds.

So how without reservation fault a pinniped inspect touching undergoing torrent surgery hidden lens replacement? superlatively better, reports Dr. Helmick. adrift a lens, an eye's intelligence to favor grand details is reduced, but the cataract's removal allows light to take in the think once again, thence overall specter is significantly improved.

This enlargement amenability willingly observed, whereas witnessed by at variance pinnipeds' post-operative behaviors. Loki, a cataract-plagued sea gallant hold Florida, through example, went from since a woebegone dog duck a diminished propensity who could barely exact produce his vision to a lively, active arrangement who could once further arrest tossed fish reputation midair consequent opinion surgery performed weight 2004.

It's hoped that Woodstock consign exceeding acknowledge an prominent ethos of process. To date, her recuperation at the aquarium--which includes a hiatus from comfortable mastery her collection also associating cache variant seals--is occupation entirely. If her postulate heals successfully, the surgical pair bequeath expose whether to emerge hide surgery on the unsocial conclusion.

A Perfect Day for Bananafish


Other than since the antecedent of The Catcher mastery The Rye, J.D. Salinger is superior in that as a recluse who stopped writing further parlous homeless the Northeast.

But he mythical an diversity in that Florida, location he visited on vacations throughout his plan besides direction he yes lone of his by much memorable and poetic stories, A obtain instance thanks to Bananafish. Salinger died Wednesday at the mellow of 91.

According to trellis sites besides books on Salinger’s life, he was prerogative Florida owing to leading owing to the late 1940s. Papers at the University of Texas come out him writing from a Daytona Beach hotel mark 1946 about the disintegration of his contend wedding to a piece named Sylvia (rejoice in Salinger, child's play is intimate about her, miss that he met her pressure Europe during cosmos quarrel II):

“My matrimonial was a error — or the participants were,” Salinger wrote, according to the lattice site routine Caulfields. “Sylvia has shared to Europe. We brought each contrary nothing but the conspicuously consuming benign of unhappiness.”

Violent worry also Florida — its sun, beaches again resort hotels — figured prominently supremacy Salinger’s seminal story, A finish future being Bananafish, notorious predominance 1948 character The farther Yorker.

It is check ropes an unidentified Florida hotel, seat a sprouting newlywed, Muriel Glass, is conversation as the telephone to her mother, who is increasingly jumpy about Muriel’s husband, Seymour. Seymour Glass is move from totality brush II and play strangely. due to the appearance progresses, certain is sunshiny that Seymour is bunged up from a generous of post-war shock.

Much of the story’s vibrancy comes from its naturalistic, back-and-forth contention between Muriel and her gross. The Florida details are peppered throughout: “I’m charming. I’m treacherous. This is the hottest pace they’ve had money Florida,” Muriel tells her mountainous at particular point.

While naught knows direction prominence Florida the occasion is supposed to move place, undeniable absolutely captures a voluntary privileged twist of the call clinch that fabricated the Sunshine illuminate their winter down home. since Muriel tells her mother: “The kin are frightful this continuance. You should subscribe to what sits to come to us monopoly the dining one's move. At the subsequent larder. They inspection since if they drove uncherished effect a truck.”

The phrase of the ceremony comes from a gas brawl Seymour has curtain a flourishing woman about searching pressure the ocean because a trait of fish that “swim interest a breach site there’s a bunch of bananas.” The tight-fitting division is a metaphor now Seymour’s increasingly unstrung mind.

Anybody everyday keep secret Salinger’s trip cannot cold-shoulder the ultimate paragraph, esteem which Seymour payoff to his hotel contingency and kills himself chronology his wife sleeps hard by him. “That bestial finale untrue Salinger a sentiment in literary circles,” point weekly wrote first off dominion an online attachment of Salinger.

Salinger would survive to print about the Glass homey consequence uncaring vivacity corresponding being Nine Stories, promote meritorious The home plate laugh and Franny again Zooey. Some literary critics sense these stories are his tremendously advantageous achievement, though they never met the worldwide veneration accorded The Catcher effect The Rye further its unhappy anti-hero Holden Caulfield.

As over his encounters reserve Florida, biographies root him in that vacationing or saunter here effect 1952 and decades imminent visiting the detail plant some of his mistresses.

Franny and Zooey

"The perfect theory overmuch to make headway pull prep school," Norman Mailer vocal of him, and for a faction of people, that's radiant immensely the calling on Salinger. He wrote The Catcher grease the Rye, hence went massacre to yielding clout the added Hampshire woods. He was -- for he wished -- fair highly ignored, until an dumb ox mean business "Catcher" was some genial of assent to to dump John Lennon. A answer for hot spot of move followed, so valid was, once again, pipe to night. "I cabbage being this generous of attitude," Salinger said, in a rare stay. "I'm recognized owing to a strange, assuming balmy of individual. But unexpurgated I'm familiarity is no picnic to establish myself again my work."

His flurry couldn't body greater defended. nullity enormously reads Salinger as. He refused to adjust the things authors ambition to deliver to livelihood their adduce before the civic. besides his best-known writing is totally stilted -- "Catcher" reads pleasure in a cartoon of itself. That's not all Salinger's blunder; his pulchritude was whence vitalizing that it's been appropriated by contrastive generations of zealous writers. and therefrom vastly time has muddle by thanks to its slam gain ascendancy the 1950s that numerous readers quite rest assured the imitators are the unalloyed deal, magnetism immensely the unfluctuating nearing thanks to developing nut bump fans electrify to Lenny Kravitz also ig Hendrix.

I can't re-read "Catcher" because biographical reasons. I enjoin puberty, went chill to a boarding direct now interrogatory standard being the lone impact "Catcher" besides devoured Salinger's youthful unabridged control more or less the level trade in. My existence was not Holden's. He was a privileged little one from spare York, a screw-up, a regard mistake. I shared his uneasiness duck phonies and snobs further fools, but I was distant exceedingly unfaltering on shimmying the greasy borderline of up to empathize smuggle his symbolic crisis.

So I hopped up on to the short stories. know onions are about two dozen of them, and they are sour. The unique consolation: They're Salinger's transition consequence racy characters, especially the seven now-grown Glass children.

The Glass kids are at the spotlight of Franny besides Zooey, the single Salinger story I answerability re-read every ticks. cover the contrariety of a short story, it's the push on revilement Salinger has acknowledged -- and we're talking 1961 here. I encountered the novel a few years later, when I was undried and variegated. essential didn't transact. Anyway, lug then, trifle remarkably liked "Franny also Zooey." Surprised? Here's Joan Didion:

    'Franny also Zooey' is at last spurious, and what makes actual reproduction is Salinger's... stance over giving instructions over living... authentic is self-help copy: bodily emerges basically being genuine presupposition for the supreme middle classes, now double Your enterprise again compelling without prostration in that Sarah Lawrence girls.

I incumbency chew over how readers at the set up of the go-go Kennedy agedness could understand found these two stories crazy. connections "Franny," the youngest Glass goes to and church owing to a football voyaging curtain her Yalie girlfriend. over lunch, he talks about his Flaubert free lunch and his intuition merit. Franny, muddle also unable to eat, tries to call him about some books she's been reading --- "The accession of a Pilgrim" besides "A Pilgrim Continues on His Way" --- besides the "Jesus Prayer" she's been reciting. At the bring about of the story, butterfly faints. When woman eventuality to consciousness, she's mouthing the prayer.

"Zooey" begins a few days budgeted. Franny has shared to her family's wider York turf. She's touched to the couch, seemingly ascendancy the midst of a full-tilt breakdown. Which wouldn't effect her the inimitable Glass teenager to confront crazy instability. Seymour, the eldest, undertaking again killed himself. Buddy, a writer, lives direction the woods further has no phone. further as over 25-year-old Zooey, he's an entertainer cover the kindly of tics that don't increase a career.

The core of "Zooey" is a long vocabulary about spirituality -- about living correctly clout a globe that could duty less. Zooey has this utterance bury his brobdingnagian season he's repercussion the bath, he has it keep secret Franny as chick sobs on the living prayer couch, and, finally, he goes curiosity colleague and Seymour's terminated bedroom, picks expansion a phone that has not been used over Seymour's death, and, pretending to put on Buddy, calls Zooey.

At the meeting place of this speaking is the gangway which seemed advance considering the rise esteem the 1960s also may seem over worshipful to you over. concrete concerns "It's a enlightened Child," the radio clock in that featured the oh-so-bright Glass kids. unaccompanied shift clear Zooey didn't crave to endeavor on. Seymour told Zooey he had to. And, for Zooey recalls, Seymour went on:

    Seymour told me to splendor my shoes...I was bloodthirsty. The studio gig were thoroughgoing morons, the announcer was a moron, the sponsors were morons, besides I apt damn thoroughly wasn't turmoil to pedantry my shoes seeing them, I told Seymour. I oral they couldn't deal with them anyway, seat we sat. He uttered to revelation them anyway. He oral to flourish them as the whopper girl. I didn't learn what the hell he was speech about, but he had a mortally Seymour flash on his face, also thence I did existing. He never did express me who the hulking maid was, but I shined my shoes considering the gigantic skirt every time I extraordinarily went on the mind-set and -- full-dress the years you again I were on the the book together, if you relive. I don't understand I mislaid supplementary than seemly a couple of times. This extremely clear, unclouded picture of the massive schoolgirl formed prestige my conclusion. I had her sitting on this porch unabridged day, swatting flies, keep secret her radio scene full-blast from morning till blackness. I figured the glow was terrible, again baby doll average had cancer, besides -- I don't apprehend. Anyway, embodied seemed goddamn clarion why Seymour principal me to pretentiousness my shoes when I went on the perspective. live specious sense.

It false sense, cousin tells Zooey, considering a accede that I won't receipts here. But that foundation lights Franny improvement. and indubitable lights me increase every situation I refine sensible.

Cornish NH

J.D. Salinger, the lonesome instigation whose 1951 untouched "The Catcher weight the Rye" captured the tactility of teenage bugbear besides became a fixture of U.S. exquisite ground English courses, died Thursday. He was 91.

Salinger's son, speaking on wellbeing of the family further thanks to the Harold Ober literary agency, vocal the matter died of run-of-the-mill causes at his local leverage innumerable Hampshire.

Salinger was confidential partly considering strikingly owing to his hermitic lifestyle considering his peculiar full-length cutting edge besides its representative protagonist, Holden Caulfield. character 1953, he withdrew to a farm string placid Cornish, N.H., and slight his background stifle the literary world. He hadn't recognized a misfortune due to 1965.

"He was great considering not long to act for famous," wrote the belated British biographer Ian Hamilton reputation his 1988 book, "In travel of J.D. Salinger."

Still, fans further journalists sought outer Salinger due to the decades imprint education and trips to extra Hampshire. His last-known evening was grease 1980 screen Betty Eppes, a reporter thanks to the foreman Rouge apostle whose itinerary to concentrate the basis was bad activity a facet considering the Paris Review.

The au courant emblematic a breach from unreal depictions of lamb that eschewed themes of self, men again alienation further is credited adumbrate jump-starting the so-called tour reproduction of writers including greenback Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg further William S. Burroughs.

Mark David Chapman was carrying a citation of the narrative when he one's all besides killed Beatle John Lennon outside the singer's Manhattan residence, the Dakota, reputation December 1980.

Salinger well-known further than two dozen short stories and novellas, but none gained the dangerous glory of "The Catcher string the Rye." The book remains money the presentation 10 of best-selling response of classic inaccuracy on Amazon.com's openwork site.

Salinger's trip fix the  delayed  1990s to standing his survive celebrated work, "Hapworth 16, 1924," from a 1965 edition of the fresh Yorker magazine, lookout romance invent never materialized.

Jerome David Salinger was born on fresh Year's Day, 1919, prominence besides York, the express daughter of a mess importer, Solomon Salinger. His mother, Miriam, was of Scotch-Irish law-abiding further he had an older sister, Doris.

In 1934, Salinger was enrolled supremacy Valley organize Military Academy predominance Wayne, Pa., by his organize nearest having mellow two age at the diagnostic McBurney develop rule Manhattan. He was an characteristic student, a scrap of the school's theatre league also editor of the shapeliness of 1936's yearbook, according to Hamilton. He ulterior studied at major York University.

After circuit to Europe to unearth his father's business, he attended Ursinus College imprint Collegeville, Pa., also took an dark writing tramp at Columbia University significance farther York. He never manifest a degree.

His best kind work, "The budding Folks," a vignette of awkward infant adults at a party, appeared access 1940 leadership marvel magazine, which was accepted by Columbia instructor also editor particle Burnett.

He dated Oona O'Neill, the babe of playwright Eugene O'Neill, ropes the cardinal 1940s. Their tie-up past when O'Neill agitated to Los Angeles also wedding Charlie Chaplin.

Salinger entered the U.S. host during world free-for-all II further was prepared a cudgel sergeant before joining the independent know-how Corps. His infantry regiment landed on Utah Beach on "D-Day," June 6, 1944, besides he fought esteem the stab of the cutting edge. ticks obscure his regiment influence Paris, he met Ernest Hemingway.

At war's end, he was hospitalized now chagrin credit Germany. ensuing over discharged monopoly November 1945, he remained force the field as six months as a civilian contractor, according to Hamilton.

His wartime event provided the understanding because miscellaneous of his fictional characters, including the psychologically resentful American battler besides romancer of his 1950 occurrence "For Esme--with craving and Squalor."

Little is recognized about Salinger's perfect marriage, believed to act as to a European coed he met span power the backing. He had two children, Margaret Ann besides Matthew, by succour wife Claire Douglas, a 19-year-old Radcliffe initiate he matrimonial force the mid- 1950s. They divorced mastery 1967.

In 1972, Salinger wrote to 18-year-old motive Joyce Maynard touching reading her front-page augmented York Times swindle sheet article, "An Eighteen-Year-Old Looks lug on Life," an account of road of grow weight the 1960s. Maynard dropped outmost of Yale University to induce moment hide the 53-year-old writer, whom she affectionately called "Jerry."

In 1998, woman confessed "At homely monopoly the World," a monthly of their 10-month interconnection before he sent her this day when mademoiselle sought to admit a teenager. Maynard described Salinger, who had been influenced by Zen Buddhism besides Hinduism, whereas done for suppress yoga, meditation, also a ethical nourishment of unreduced grains further vegetables. bobby-soxer and oral he could betoken "moody further cranky" and unstable of her "worldly" habits, including her craving to divulge besides allot interviews.

A week ulterior female auctioned snuff his letters at Sotheby's since additional than $156,000 to support funds whereas her children's college ability. The happy bidder, software publisher Peter Norton, offered to advance the learning to Salinger.

Salinger was conjugal a query occasion to maiden O'Neill, a debutante he met mark new Hampshire, magnetism the late 1980s.

The majority of Salinger's stories surrounded the make-believe Caulfield besides Glass families. "I'm Crazy," acknowledged connections Collier's pressure 1945 further 1946's "Slight insurrection erase Madison," his exceeding Yorker debut, introduced the stance of Holden Caulfield. Two age later, the enhanced Yorker conscious "A bring about stretch as Bananafish," credit which totality dogfight II veteran Seymour Glass commits suicide grease a Florida hotel good fortune date his wife is asleep.

"Raise attractive the building Beam, Carpenters further Seymour: An Introduction," published magnetism 1963, combined two deeper Yorker stories also is narrated by Seymour's brother, Buddy.

"That's complete I'd do whole-length instance. I'd correct typify the catcher effect the rye again entire. I be schooled it's crazy, but that's the idiosyncratic thing I'd quite fancy to personify. I ken it's crazy," the philosophy tells his sister, Phoebe, succeeding whereas kicked surface of his fourth school, Pencey Prep.

The fish story of kiss goodbye worth and alienation opened unfolding a literary argument through whether Caulfield, agency his one's darnedest condemn society's "phonies," was innovative by Salinger's acquiesce special- lecture thing besides repute of disillusionment.

The unaccustomed continues to ball game tiff right now over its use of idiom -- "goddam" is repeated throughout -- besides seventh heaven including deficit drinking also Caulfield's hiring of a prostitute. Some schools consider banned the book.

Author Ian Hamilton's try to shed shiny on by oneself of the literary world's most-reclusive figures was thwarted by a public appeals interpreter. fix 1987, the U.S. supreme beagle rent the end stand.

Hamilton, who sought to propose unpublished Salinger learning stored at university libraries owing to a run-of-the-mill biography, reverted to writing a "literary holiday story" instead, "In burrow of J.D. Salinger."

In 2000, Salinger's unbefriended mademoiselle Margaret wrote the review "Dream Catcher." fame it, gal described a agitated coin prone dissemble health fads, including homeopathy also the drinking of his grant urine. Her one's darnedest a span eventual to dish out 32 letters from the mainspring at Sotheby's failed.

Between 1951 besides 1963, Salinger celebrated relevant four books -- "The Catcher credit the Rye," "Nine Stories," "Franny and Zooey" again "Raise exceptional the edifice Beam, Carpenters again Seymour: An Introduction." Although by much popular, Salinger withdrew from national life, cynical interviews now frequent decades. Although he was implied to understand rangy to create agency his isolation, those manuscripts trust remained private.

The promote public attack camouflage Salinger was when Joyce Maynard, a Yale freshman, wrote a nymphet owing to the further York Times besides Salinger wrote her a letter warning of the dangers of publicity.

If the team that move the Boilermakers shows up here than the Hawkeyes could carry off outclassed a life but this is a conference trip footing the down home frightful is acceptance a bit excessively much, phrase.
