There are many Marilyns: sex goddess and innocent child, crafty manipulator and dumb blonde, liberated woman and tragic loner. The Many Lives of Marilyn Monroe reviews the unreliable and unverifiable—but highly significant—stories that have framed this Hollywood legend, all the while revealing the meanings behind the American myths that have made Marilyn what she is today.

Aileen Wuornos always
craved fame. Long before she was hunted and caught by Florida law
enforcement, long before she confessed to killing seven men, she told
friends that she wanted to do something “no woman has ever done
before” and to have a book about her life. Just as that life
was finally ended by lethal injection after more than a decade on
Florida's Death Row, along came Sue Russell's book, Lethal
Intent.
Packed with exclusive material that sheds a different light on this
rare, if not unique, serial killer, Lethal Intent contains
new insights and intimate memories from her family, friends and childhood
peers. (Peers who lost their virginities to Aileen, who began prostituting
herself at a horribly early age.)
Lethal Intent reveals Aileen's devastating double abandonment
by her mother before she was age two, the crimes of her father, and
the myriad events that helped set her path of destruction. It even
contests the widespread superficial judgment of Wuornos as a “man-hating
lesbian” via new insights from men with whom she shared sexual
and romantic relationships. Lethal Intent also explores the
dynamics of her fateful relationship with Tyria Moore, the lesbian
lover who knew Aileen was killing yet stayed by her side, and how
those dynamics moved her closer to a life of murder. Click on following

BIG BRIDGE
bigbridge.org (ca 1997) is the online companion to Big Bridge Press, a fine print publisher, founded by Michael Rothenberg and Nancy Victoria Davis. Using the internet as its canvas, Big Bridge online responds to community, activism and lineage through art and culture with a ravenous curiosity. The editor’s note reveals the modus operandi of this expansive website. “We don't care if Language poetry appears next to sonnets, or haiku next to spoken word and workshop poetry beside agit-smut . . . We don't care how art is shaped — round like moon, flat like roadkill, angular like love, twisted like political promises . . . guided by whimsy and passion and urgency. We want more.” Features include: chapbooks by Philip Whalen, Joanne Kyger, David Meltzer, Michael McClure, Anselm Hollo, Jack Collom, Sarah Menefee, Renee Gregorio, John Weiners and Robert Creeley; retrospectives of Ira Cohen and Robert LaVigne; tributes to Phil Ochs, Vincent Ferrini, Donald Guravich, Kevin Opstedal, and Buzz Gallery; installations on Erotica and international literary anthologies, and “The Language of War and Peace”, the immediate and moving response to 9/11 by a vast community of writers and thinkers. Big Bridge is a socially engaged and multi-media publication with an insatiable appetite. “Which way you cross, what you see, depends on which way you go. See you out there. Don't forget to write.”
** THE CENTAURIAN **
A John Updike Website For Information And Discussion
This John Updike website is designed to provide information and promote discussion about writer John Updike's life and work. As employed in his third novel, published in 1963, the Greek mythological figure of the Centaur — half human and half horse — clearly represents the ambiguity of human existence. It symbolizes both the soaring energies of spiritual transcendence which provoke anxiety and hope, and the captive energies of physical embodiment which generate suffering and pleasure. In all his writings John Updike has never failed to address the agonies and the ecstasies these tangled energies generate in human life. The Centaurian seems therefore an especially appropriate title for this site. It captures the focus of Updike's work in every genre. And, happily, he continues to write. For a rich variety of information concerning John Updike's life and work, past and present, check this website's linked content resources which immediately follow.

milkmag.org was created in 1999 by Larry Sawyer and Lina ramona Vitkauskas. It stemmed directly from the creation of milk magazine in its print incarnation by Larry Sawyer. As a past editor of Nexus magazine, Larry was fortunate to work with/publish distinguished poets such as Jack Micheline, Ira Cohen, Gerard Malanga, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Gustaf Sobin, Frank Lima, Paul Violi, Sheila E. Murphy, Linda Lerner, Paul Bowles, and Charles Henri Ford. With milkmag.org he hopes to make contact with the spirit of poetry via the electronic pulse of this strange contraption called the Internet — infusing it with a life it lacks, the creative sweat and blood of the inspiring artists contained herein . . .
