| #1 | 5/12/2014 | The Healthy Opposite of the Psychopathic Spectrum Is the Relatedness Spectrum (Thomas Farrell) In an article published at OpEdNews.com on May 12, 2014, Rob Kall asks, "What is the opposite of the psychopathic spectrum?"

| #2 | 5/20/2012 | Narrative Concepts (Lewis Mehl-Madrona) I attempt to say what a narrative is. It is a telling of something to someone by someone. It may reflect the basic means by which our brains work, the result of a co-evolution of brain and story to allow us to recall the myriad of details necessary for negotiating a social life with the 500 people whom we are capable of knowing. Its shortest form consists of two action clauses that can be sequenced and one orienting clause. |
| #3 | 5/17/2011 | Beauty May Be In Eye of Beholder But Eyes See What Culture Socializes (Mikhail Lyubansky) Kanazawa's claims aside, there is no single "objective" standard of beauty. The adage that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is incomplete. Sure, there are individual differences. The point is that there are also group differences, not in attractiveness (as Kanazawa claims), but in cultural messages about what is and is not attractive. |

This is the first in a series of daily blogs about the trip. I begin by wondering about coyote as a symbolic muse, an animal who lives at the margin and is currently expanding its territory. We discuss templates for the expression of pain. |
