	Into the Crystal you shall fall
		As it turned out, there was somebody who recognized his own portrait in the novella before it even was published.
		There was a new performance of his last and most popular opera, "Undine," and the clandestine sweetheart of the final years, the charming actress Johanna Eunicke
		He must have had a long arm that reached as far as into the manuscript drawer in Hoffmann's desk.

	text of the novella "The Wreck of the Titan," or "Futility" by Morgan Robertson
		It had all happened in a minute, but in that minute he was crippled for life; for in the quiet of a hospital, the best of surgical skill could hardly avail to reset the fractured particles of bone in the limp arm, and bring to place the crushed ribs.
		And he was adrift on a floating island of ice, with the temperature near the freezing point, and without even the rude appliances of the savage.
		Some one, probably a stranger long after my banishment, who came to her possessed of a few qualities of mind or physique that pleased her, — who did not need to love her — his chances were better without that — and he steps coolly and easily into my heaven.

	Aimee Mann - The Forgotten Arm (Superego Records) - MusicRemedy.com, Brings Music to Life
		The Forgotten Arm (SuperEgo), her fifth solo release, is exactly that: a dozen songs that tell, rather loosely, the story of John and Caroline as they meet, fall in love and road trip across America.
		Produced by singer-songwriter Joe Henry, The Forgotten Arm is a departure for Mann in several ways, not least of which that it was recorded over just five days last summer.
		In the end, The Forgotten Arm is, like so much of Aimee Mann’s music, really about the inexorable pull of co-dependency in human relationships.

	Amazon.com: The Forgotten Arm: Music
		The Forgotten Arm, her fifth solo release, is exactly that: a dozen songs that tell, rather loosely, the story of John and Caroline as they meet, fall in love and road trip across America.
		Aimee Mann returns to this tradition with "The Forgotten Arm" (a reference to a boxing move, which seems too complicated for a non-sports person like me to explain, but from what I gather, the gist of it is this: an boxer is knocked out by the deliberately unused or apparently non-dominant arm of his/her opponent).
		The title The Forgotten Arm is actually a reference to Aimee's ability to box and to use a particular move in boxing; but I suppose given the situations the CD involves it could also refer to an arm that hasn't been used to inject drugs into one's self!

	Part2 - ERNEST MILLER HEMINGWAY: A WORKBOOK
		Ernest can be seen wearing a checkered shirt as one of the gamblers in the flashback scene when Santiago was arm-wrestling as a young man. Mary can be seen sitting on the veranda of La Terraze, the restaurant, as one of the American tourists at the end of the film.
		She knew Ernest was not cured, he "entertained the same delusions and fears with which he'd entered the clinic." She realized in despair he'd charmed and deceived the doctors into the conclusion he was sane.
		Ernest knew what he'd done with this story, and he made it plain to Wallace Meyer advance publicity for the novella must not depict him as a curiosity or a controversial figure.

	Giotto di Bondone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Giotto smiled and took a sheet of paper, dipped his brush in red paint, closed his arm to his side, and with one twist of his wrist drew a perfect circle freehand.
		The Crucifixion in Santa Maria Novella in Florence is one of the major early works and clearly distinguishes Giotto's treatment of the subject from that of Cimabue and Duccio.
		Giotto was born in poverty in the countryside near Florence, the son of Bondone, a peasant, and was himself a shepherd.

	Florence Bed & Breakfasts in Italy and accommodation: B&B Antica Posta, Rental rooms
		The right arm of the transept leads to the Chapel where a round tombstone on the pavement markes the burial-place of Botticelli.
		Of the early church the medieval Campanile in romanesque style remains which follows the model of that of S. Maria Novella.
		The interior has a single nave with transept, and contains many works of art, among which the frescoes by Botticelli, David and Domenico Ghirlandaio.

	Amazon.com: The Old Man and The Sea: Books: Ernest Hemingway
		Passages such as that in which the fisherman recalls his participation in a twenty-four hour arm wrestling match are unconvincing, and the old man's philosophical attempts to come to terms with life, aging, and mortality simply don't ring as deeply as Hemingway probably believed.
		Despite being tightly composed in the stripped-back, high WASP style for which he is renowned, Ernest Hemingway's novella, The Old Man and the Sea (1952) remains an essentially sentimental story of little actual substance.
		In fact The Old Man and the Sea revived Ernest Hemingway's career, which was foundering under the weight of such postwar stinkers as Across the River and into the Trees.

	Eagle's Path: F&SF, May 2005
		This novella gets off to a better start than the last short story of his that I read, building an interesting strong-arm character and a plot about three mysterious photographs.
		A great humorous concept, handled reasonably well with an okay point about personal identity and nature versus nurture at the end.
		"The Imago Sequence" by Laird Barron: I'm afraid I just don't like Laird Barron's style and thematic material.

	Aimee Mann - Official Store: Music Department
		Aimee Mann songs have a literary quality to them--sharp, short stories set to music--so it was probably inevitable that she would one day make a concept album, the musical equivalent of a novella.
		The Forgotten Arm, her fifth solo release, is exactly that: a dozen songs that tell, rather loosely, the story of John and Caroline as they meet, fall in love and road trip across America.
		Aimee Mann sets her wry and introspective lyrics against layers of haunting instrumentation, a bold step forward for an artist best known for her semi-acoustic songs.

	The Dreaming: The Neil Gaiman Page - Academia
		An adult narrator recounts his memories of the early 1960s; as a boy of four, his arm is accidentally fractured by his father.
		Punch, with its haunting full-page montages by Dave McKean, looks like a comic, Gaiman once described Stardust as a "very extensively illustrated novella."
		A voracious reader of comics until the age of sixteen, Gaiman grew disillusioned with a genre he felt he had outgrown.

		The Eye of Argon - An infamously bad heroic fantasy novella, written in 1970 by Jim Theis and circulated anonymously in science fiction fandom since then.
		Aron Ralston - One tough guy who, in order to escape from death, cut off his own arm with a dull knife after a boulder fell on it.
		Vril - A belief that aliens controlled Nazi Germany and helped Hitler and others to escape to the South Pole when the war was lost.

	Chet Helms - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Chet Helms, or Chester Leo Helms, (August 2, 1942 - June 2005), born in Santa Maria, California, was the eldest of three sons born to Chester and Novella Helms.
		Helms' shows were always more relaxed and offered a pleasant alternative to Bill Graham Presents dances, at a more reasonable admission, and with more room for the stoned-out, freaky, arm-waving, type of solo dancing that personified the era.
		San Franciscans will always remember Chet Helms' perennial, easy smile, and how he enriched their lives in helping spawn a wealth of musical talent in their city, and in his contributions to the "peace and love" message and the rock scene of the 60's, which were often one and the same.

	Ernest Hemingway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hemingway's injuries were serious; he sprained his right shoulder, arm, and left leg, had a grave concussion, temporarily lost vision in his left eye (and the hearing in his left ear), had paralysis of the sphincter, a crushed vertebra, ruptured liver, spleen and kidney, and first degree burns on his face, arms, and leg.
		Science fiction novelist Joe Haldeman won the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award for his novella, The Hemingway Hoax, a story which explored the effect that Hemingway's lost stories might have had upon twentieth century history.
		Sailors were long-known to especially value polydactyl cats (which have extra toes as a genetic trait) for their extraordinary climbing and hunting abilities as an aid in controlling shipboard rodents.
