Elegant Greyhound...

Is this the greyhound I ate? No...that was Leon, the dog that tastes like
chicken.

"A Hermit Thrush"
Amp Clampitt,
from THE COLLECTED POEMS

"Nothing's certain...

...unbroken music. From what source (beyond us, or
the wells within?) such links perceived arrive--
diminished sequences so uninsistingly
not even human--there's

hardly a vocabulary left to wonder, uncertain
as we are of so much in this existence, this
botched, cumbersome, much-mended,
not unsatisfactory thing."

"A Hermit Thrush"
-- Amy Clampitt,
From THE COLLECTED POEMS

"...we traveled
toward an apprehension all but impossible
to be held onto--

that no point is fixed, that there's no foothold
but roams untethered save by such snells,
such sailor's knots, such stays
and guy wires as are

mainly of our own devising."

"Polysemy is the state of being a polyseme; i.e. a word or phrase with multiple
meanings, such as "The child started to walk." and "My mother used to dance the

"Plotinius the Platonist proves by means of the blossoms and leaves that from
the Supreme God, whose beauty is invisible and ineffable, Providence reaches
down to the things of earth here below. He points out that these frail and
mrtal objects could not be endowed with a beauty so immaculate and so
exquisitely wrought, did they not issue from the Divinity which endlessly
pervades with its invisible and unchanging beauty all things."

"The work and thought leading to this book have spread over many years, and my
debts go back to include all that were ackowledged in the preface to my
previous book, 'Steps to an Ecology of Mind.'

But I have tried to write to be understandable to those who have not read
'Steps' and therefore shall acknowledge here only depts contracted since
'Steps' was published. Even so..."

"Perhaps transpose is used as a noun only by mathematicians; the transpose of a
matrix is the result of the process of transposition of the matrix; the
two-syllable noun and the four syllable noun differ in meaning in that one is
the result and the other is the process. Similar remarks apply to transform;
the process is transformation, the result of the process is the transform, as
in<A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplace_transform"> Laplace
transform</A><A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplace_transform">"</A>,<A
HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_transform"> Fourier transform</A>,
etc.

A particulary interesting case is the word protest; as a noun it has the
stress on the first syllable, but as a verb its meaning depends on stress: with
the stress on the second syllable it means to raise a protest; on the first it
means to participate in a protest. This appears to result from the derived noun
getting verbed."

"Three types

There are three varieties of this : backward vertical integration, forward
vertical integration, and balanced vertical integration.

• In backward vertical integration, the company sets up subsidiaries
that produce some of the inputs used in the production of its products. For
example, an automobile company may own a tire company, a glass company, and a
metal company. Control of these three subsidiaries is intended to create a
stable supply of inputs and ensure a consistent quality in their final product.

• In forwardvertical integration, the company sets up subsidiaries
that<A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_%28business%29">
distribute</A><A
HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_%28business%29">"</A> or<A
HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marketing"> market</A> products to customers
or use the products themselves. An example of this is a movie studio that also
owns a chain of theaters.

• In balanced vertical integration, the company sets up subsidiaries
that both supply them with inputs and distribute their outputs."

Don't be ridiculous! We all know greyhounds are WAY too skinny to
make a decent meal. Heck, they are so skinny they barely make a "thud,
thud" sound when you run the little flea bags over. Last one I had to
stop and backup over it a few times to even be sure I'd hit it.

It was that drive that earned Jessica a fourth place finish in the Alpo North
Central Regional competition last year. Undaunted by her ninth place finish in
1998 (the top eight progress for a chance to represent the region at the World
Finals later in the year), she worked even harder in 1999 "to make the cut."
Her efforts were again recognized when she was invited to participate in last
summer's Purina Incredible Dog Challenge in Chicago."
