[Verse] SALT's final issue / Part 6: Metrical Poetry Feature: Note: Landis Everson was part of the original "Berkeley Renaissance" in the late '40s, an intimate of the Duncan-Spicer-Blaser circle (Spicer was in love with him, and to Duncan he was the "Poet-King"), and later (circa 1960) a member of the Spicer-Blaser-Jim Herndon-Landis Everson Sunday reading group in San Francisco. Ashbery printed some of his things in Locus Solus in 1962, but Landis has not appeared in print since, and has never had a book, although he appeared in such magazines as Occident, Poetry, Kenyon Review, Hudson Review, and Quarterly Review of Literature. He is now in his mid-70s, alive and well in San Luis Obispo, and has started writing poetry again (he says that I am responsible). This spring, Fulcrum printed two sequences by Landis (one from 1960 & one from 1962) as part of an anthology I am putting together of unknown and unpublished writing by poets associated with the Berkeley Renaissance (Mary Fabilli, Jack Spicer, Robert Duncan, Robin Blaser, Charles Olson & Landis Everson).

[Skookum] Deja Vu: Abdullah and Sabrina sat quietly in the back of the Mercedes between the musclemen as they passed the hippodrome and other Roman ruins of Tyre, twenty miles north of the Israeli border. As they approached the crossing at Rosh Hanikra, their guards pressed the barrels of their pistols into their ribs as a reminder to stay quiet. When they stopped in line at the border, they could see the throngs of Israeli tourists on the other side queued up at the cable car station that transported gawkers down to the sea caves and the old Beirut-to-Haifa train tunnel carved through the chalk cliffs and put out of commission during the 1948 war when Jewish guerrillas blew up the trestles. Oddly, Abdullah felt excited and wished he could stop and explore the grottoes with Sabrina, momentarily forgetting they were not on vacation.

[in my head *] The SATsOkay, the SATs were so much better this ye...: The SAT doesn't have a science section. I remember the ACT had the most dreadful science test ever. It was more like charts and graphs that PERTAIN to science, rather than just your knowledge of science. When I'm a high school senior, I'm definitely taking the SAT.

[Blogs.msdn.com] Technical Careers @ Microsoft :: Over the last year and half, I’ve been breaking new ground in not only the way I think about recruiting but also the way my department thinks about recruiting.  And sometimes I think the curve runs a good two years behind the trend. :)  From the beginning, people in my organization have said, “Oh, the blog thing.  That’s cool.”  But I never got the feeling they actually “got” it.  Lately, though, I’m realizing more and more people (with more authority and clout than I have) are getting it, and I’m pretty excited about some culture shifts I’m seeing on the backend.

[Blogs.msdn.com] Technical Careers @ Microsoft :: Wow, things have been totally crazy around here lately.  I haven’t been writing very much about what I’ve been up to in my “day job,” but let’s just say I’ve got a lot going on.   It’s a really exciting time.  I’m basically doing two separate jobs right now.  One is mostly right brain; the other is mostly left brain.  So at the end of the day, I am just all tapped out of energy. (But in a good way!)  Anyway, I can’t yet tell you about all the fun stuff I’m working on, but hopefully I will be able to write you more soon.  Needless to say, I’m excited.

[Oncomputerstips.blogspot.com] On Computers Tips: This CNet News.com article says that MS has appealed to the Congress for protection from "frivilous" lawsuits by the purveyors of adware and spyware. Such firms have threatened or actually filed suit against a number of organizations who make removal tools, as well as Ben Edelman (who was on the show, recently).
