Salsa isa ype of dance music that is popular throughout Latin ‘America and the United States. Salsa is different from its forebears because it represents the erystallization ofa Latino identity in New York in the carly 1960s. By the time people became conscious of i, the crystallization was complete. The man who first used the term salsa to publicize New York-based Latin music, a magazine editor and graphic designer named Izzy Sanabria, pointed out that many musicians who are now associated with the genre worked hard to innovate new styles without knowing that they were playing what would become known, assalsa. Many musicians actively rejected the term. Mambo bandleader Machito said salsa was nothing but of what he had been playing for forty years. ‘When Tito Puente was asked about salsa, he commented sourly, “I'm a musician, not a cook.” But salsa as sauce is an excellent metaphor for cultural mixing, and a reference to a special kind of spiciness. And as Sanabria said, if he had been completely honest and said that salsa was nothing but the same old music that bandleaders like Machito and Puente were playing, would the world have paid attention to New York Latin music? Several urban legends surrounding the creation or coining of the term salsa are worth reflecting on, if only because they locate the energy that informs the genre. In the most simplistic sense, salsa refers to a mixture of ingredients that “spices up” the proceedings. Most food eaten in Latin American countries would be unthinkable without local sauces, or salsas. So when in 1932 Ignacio Pifieito, the pioneering Cuban bassist and orchestra leader, shouted out “salsa” in the song Echale salsita, he was saying “Put some salsa on i,” telling his band to shift the tempo and put the dancers into high gear. Later in that decade, renowned vocalist Beny Moré would merely shout “salsa!” to acknowledge a musical moment's heat, as well as perhaps to express a kind of cultural nationalist sloganeering, celebrating the “hotness” or “spiciness”” of Latin American cultures. (Celia Cruz continued this tradition in a similar vein with her own, perhaps more feminine slogan, Azucar [Sugar]!) Finally, “salsa” was legendarily invoked by Izzy Sanabria as a way to categorize the modern version of Afro-Cuban music being ‘made in New York in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The ingredients brought from Cuba to New York were given a different flavor by a multinational group of Latino, ‘African-American, and sometimes Anglo-American ‘musicians who were essential to the creation of salsa, 10.

The folowing is an adaptation of an essay published by 4a biologist in a collection of essays on science and culture, Although the pursuit of science is ideally supposed. to require innovation and creativity, one gets the feeling nowadays that the pursuit of monetary support sometimes demands more real ingenuity than the search for nature's secrets, The “haves” possess access to research tools, assistants, and the route to success through frequent publi- cation. The “have-nots,” without any of these things, must struggle to do research as best they can. ‘Another result of reduced funding is the tendency of the haves to pick a safe path to avoid becoming have-nots. In ‘general there is a tendency to shun the highly innovative in favor of the more trodden paths. If we would only be less lavish with the haves and more generous with the have~ nots, changes would occur. But rather than outlining a plan for a solution, et us look at a unique solution to the funding problem offered by one of the great have-nots in the history ‘of American science. John Bell Hatcher was born in 1861. As an adolescent he was a miner in Towa, where he became interested in fossils associated with the coal beds. Using the savings from his labors, he enrolled in Yale College. Upon grad uation, the former student was hired by his professor to do collecting in the rich fossil beds of Kansas. Hatcher developed an interest in the extinct fossil verte- brates of Patagonia, in South America, which had been first described by Charles Darwin in The Voyage of the Beagle. For two years, he worked at Princeton University, envision- ing a coilecting expedition to Argentina while spending time and effort privately raising money to support such an endeavor. From March 1896 to the late summer of 1899 Hatcher spent all but four months in the southern hemi- sphere on three separate collecting trips. The last of these ‘was entirely supported out of his own pocket. The support problem can perhaps best be seen in his own modest words in the acknowledgment section of the published work: “To the Lampport and Hold and the W.R. Grace SS. Lines we were indebted for reduced rates of passage to and from South America.” He had, it seems, virually hitchhiked to his work site. As the expedition moved through Patagonia, this small, hard-bitten scientist out of the American West taught the Jocal residents the game of poker. He was a shrewd player, and there was a flow of money from the locals to him, Hatcher’s outside support all hung on the draw of a card as he worked his way through Argentina, flushing out support for his scientific endeavors. Ironically, the work of three impoverished years in the field was published in eight sumptuous volumes paid for by “the generosity of J. Pierpont Morgan, Esq., who has rendered it possible to publish these reports altogether worthy of their subject and with adequate illustrations.” ‘And so Princeton gave thanks, noting, “Mr, Morgan's liberality alone has put in one uniform series all the great and varied results of Mr. Hatcher’ labors in South $5 America.” Contemporary science has moved a long way from the cart and three horses that took Hatcher and his assistant across southern Argentina, Electron microscopes or time ‘on a computer are not likely candidates for poker stakes. 60 Auditing procedures force us into very direct ways of dealing with funding. Yet the spirit of John Bell Hatcher might convey a message to those struggling to get their research done. If you believe in yourself and in what you are doing, don’t stop! Life is cosmically unfair, but deter- 65 mination still helps. To the granting agencies, we point ‘out a moral: far better would have been the support of| Hatcher's struggles in Patagonia than the after-the-fact beneficence of J, Pierpont Morgan to arrange a fine packaging for those triumphs won in the dirt and sweat 70 of the fields. 17.

The following passage is adapted from a 2008 novel about city dweller who relocates to suburbia with her husband. Thad lit ot forthe suburbs in the manner of pioneers and pilgrims, not so bravely and with fewer sweeping historical consequences, but with that same combination of discouragement and hope, that simultancous ranning-away and ranning-toward. I was a woman ready for a new life, People like to say that cities are impersonal, that there’s like a big city to make a person feel small.

Imagine an enormous strutting peacock withthe whole jeweled city fora tail ‘But my peacock days didn't last. They went on for years and years, first in Philadelphia and then in New York, before skidding to as abrupt a halt as anything ever skidded, so that by the time my husband, Teo, and I took a left turn onto Willow Street, those days had been over for months, and as we drove through as quiet a neighborhood as Thad ever seen, I could not shake the feeling that we ‘were home. I wanted and did not want to feel this way. My heart sank even as my spirits lightened and rose toward the canopy of sycamore leaves, the sleepy blue sky. ‘What you need to understand is that I had not planned to become this person. {had planned to remain an adventurous urbanite to court energy and unpredictability, and to remain open to blasts of strangeness, ugliness, and edgy beauty forthe rest of my life. Instead, as Teo drove ten miles an hour down street after street, it eame from everywhere, from the red flags of the mailboxes and the ‘swaths of green lawn, from the orderly flower beds and the ‘oxidized copper of the drainpipes: the sound of this sedate, ‘unsurprising place calling me home. 0 5 65 5 “It looks like home,” Teo said, and after a mild double take (very mild, since the man reads my mind. ‘with unnerving regularity), I realized that he didn’t mean “home” the way 'd been thinking it, or not quite, He meant the place where we'd been kids together and where all four of our parents still lived. ‘My husband and I had grown up, notin a suburb exactly, but in a cozy little Virginia college town, in the same kind of neighborhood we drove through now, beautiful, with houses dating from the early twentieth century, trees dating from before that. A place where late spring meant hardwoods in full, emerald green leaf, and a ‘Memorial Day lawn party replete with croquet, badminton, barbecue, and at least five kinds of pie. And although we ‘were years and miles away from that place, that childhood, although it was late morning and Memorial Day had come and gone two weeks before, I could almost see the children. ‘we had been darting through the dusk, could almost smell the rich perfume of grilling meat. T know how syrupy this sounds, how dull, provincial, and possibly whitewashed, but what can I do? Happy idhoods happen. Ours happened. What came back 10 ‘me, with lightning-crack vividness, as I looked out the car ‘window, were the clusters of women, at birthday parties, cookouts, standing in yards and kitchens, the air warm with, their talking, and how oddly interchangeable we all were, ‘women and children both. The woman who picked us up ‘when we fell down or wiped our faces or fed us lunch or yelled us down from treetops (all of itso casually, with barely a break in the conversation or an extra breath) may have been our mother but could just as easily have been someone else’s.

The following passages discuss the subject of deception. Passage I is from a book written by @ philosopher in 1993. Passage 2 appeared ina study of lying written by a novelist in 2001, Passage 1 ‘Telling the whole truth about everything to everybody all the time isan impossibility, but even if it were possible, {probably wouldn’t be desirable. The question is: ofall the things we could say, what should we say? Deception i a touchy subject. Before serious misunder- standings begin to form, it would be a good idea to state clearly that I repudiate all harmfully exploitative deceptions such as consumer fraud, insider trading, acts of treachery in the workplace, tax evasion, and so on. Te lst of reprehen- sible exploitations is enormous and grows longer daily. I do despise and reject allthis corruption. However, itis mistake to despise and reject ll the other forms of deception, to0, just because we have had experience with these contemptible ones. It would be the same kind of mistake as rejecting al politics just because we have been bumed by some corrupt politicians. We need to sort ‘out what is and what is not normally justifiable deception, just as we must sort out moral from immoral behavior in politics. ‘As children we are taught to revere the principle of truth-elling before we have achieved a clear understand- {ng of what truth i. Fora child, how is the truth diferent from a captivating story that takes us off into other vivid realities? From saying things that make people fee! good? From whatever saves us from danger? Children have to be taught to isolate truth and truth-tlling for special treatment, ‘As our expetiences widen, however, we also learn through ‘wonderfully indirect and subtle means that tuth-tlling, like every other moral principle, has its drawbacks in practice, and sometimes we have to pass over it in our calculations for geting on as decent and successful human beings. Deception is found in many cultures (although attitudes toward it differ), probably because it provides advantage in carrying out one's intentions, and because it offers a chance t escape confrontations without having to fight. ‘We human beings ae active, creative mammals who can represent what exists as if it did not, and what doesn't exist, as fit did, And we do this easily and routinely. Poet T'S Eliot was ight when he reminded us that “Human kind/ Cannot bear very much reality.” In civilization no les than in the wilderness, survival at the water hole does not favor the fully exposed and unguarded self. Deception, it seems, ‘may bea vital social ski “6 50 $s %s ss -31- Passage 2 ‘The nineteenth-century moralist’s view on deception was that in general any violation, no matter how small, of| the dictates of one’s conscience was dangerous. The small lie makes room for the bigger one, which makes room for theft, which makes to0m for robbery, which makes room for murder. The rapid descent down the slippery slope starts with a minor infraction. The model may be flawed — know chronic Tiars who, as far as I know, show no ineli- nation toward progressing to murder—but certainly the impulse to deceive in order to sueceed can become 2s much a habit a suspiciousness or greed, and once it has ‘become routine, conscience is no longer an issue. Lying can become habitual in dealing with others while the moral sense in charge of hindering it atrophies. The loss of con- science is probably not mourned by anyone who functions without it, but those who have lost the faculty to tell that it is wrong to harm others, or that deception is one form of harm, have been deprived of a humanizing feature and have suffered an impoverishment of their moral life. Liars harm themselves, but if that were the only ‘damage they do, we'd sleep better at night. The price we pay for lies we are told tends to be higher and the ‘damage more painful, For those of us who value close relationships, lies an do harm to what is dearest 1o our hearts. They ean utterly destroy a sense of intimacy, especially if one of the two people involved lies and the other does not. The shock of discovering that someone to ‘whom you feel close deceived you can be tremendous, and the loss of trust and disappointment following the discovery can seriously impair, and sometimes destroy, a relationship. ‘The last statement will strike some as an exaggeration, ‘Anyone who lies frequently and is convinced that others do the same will find it difficult to believe that discovering ‘lie can be a shock, “What's the big deal; everybody does it” covers this and a great many other minor and not-so- minor transgressions (as in “everyone runs red lights ‘now and then, inflates expense accounts, etc."). And if ‘one should get caught at lying, what of it? One simply has recourse to any ofthe standard excuses. Classic example: “I didn’t want to upset you.” But to those who do not lie habitually, discovering that they have been lied to can havea profound effect. * Passage 1: Frm “The Vamished Truth: Truth Telling and Deceiving in (Ordinary Lie” by David Nyberg, copyright © 1993 by Davi Nybers. ‘Use by permission of University of Chicago Pres.
