Untitled-1 8/7/06, 6:48 PM 1 Untitled-1 1 8/7/06, 6:48 PM Untitled-1 2 8/7/06, 6:48 PM The Harper Anthology Volume XVIII 2006 Foreword The “front cover” of Harper College has changed considerably over the past few years, as reflected on the cover of this publication, in its creative transformation of the stone, steel, glass, concrete, foliage, and other materials that have added so much to the campus. The insides of the college have changed, as well, with technological modifications, new program offerings, and reorganizations of human resources. The Harper Anthology also has undergone alterations, but the mission of the publication, like the general mission of Harper College, has remained constant. Teaching and learning drive the philosophy and mission of Harper College, and this publication is a celebration of those activities. This year’s collection covers quite a range of topics, from Louisa Walsh’s paper on soil degradation in American housing developments, to a paper by Carson Griffis, on economic degradation in Latin American countries under CAFTA. Within that wide range are many excellent scholarly research-based papers, covering subjects such as Islamic extremism (Jarek Stelmaszuk), Herman Melville’s Moby Dick (Justin DeVault), and the writing of Frederick Douglass (Sean Rafferty). A number of interesting and descriptive essays are also includ- ed, such as those about Milwaukee rock and roll legends The Violent Femmes (Danielle LaGrippe), and about what can be learned from hours and days and months spent picking radishes in Germany (Margaret Dabkowska). A very compelling Afterword, contributed by long-time Harper College adjunct professor and nat- uralist Chet Ryndak, reminds us of the importance of effective writing and communication in professional and public life, providing a sense of some of the professional communications activities that students are preparing for in many Harper courses. Overall, this is another fine collection — the result of the serious scholarship efforts put forth by these students and encouraged by their professors. The essays published herein, and in past issues of The Harper Anthology, reflect student success, promotion of personal growth, the development of academic abilities, and overall academic excellence, all of which are central to the teaching- and learning-centered philosophy and mission of Harper College. —Kris Piepenburg, Chair, for The Harper Anthology committee: Barbara Butler, Teresa Chung, Judy Kaplow, Chris Padgett, Josh Sunderbruch, Anthony Wisniewski Submission Information / Table of Contents Submission Information Table of Contents Michelle Bierbower Deadlines The Stranglehold of Society in A Doll’s House Submission deadline, 2007 issue: (English 102) 1 Thursday, December 21, 2006 Carrie Clodfelter Submission deadline, 2008 issue: The Singer Solution: A Critical Analysis Thursday, December 20, 2007 (English 101) 6 Margaret Dabkowska To Submit a Student’s Manuscript: Radishes Complete the submission forms included in (English 101) 9 the back of this issue, or available at the “Publications” tab of the Harper College English Justin DeVault Department website: Free Will and Destruction in www.harpercollege.edu/libarts/eng/dept.

  • Brewer and Shipley Living 'One Toke Over the Line' in the Ozarks
    December 23, 1998, Wednesday BYLINE: By JOHN ROGERS, Associated Press DATELINE: SPRINGFIELD, Mo. Brewer and Shipley living ‘one toke over the line’ in the Ozarks The oddest thing about it, Michael Brewer says a quarter-century later, is that he and Tom Shipley never set out to create any icon to high culture when they wrote “One Toke Over the Line.” “We had been songwriters for so long that it was just another song for us,” Brewer says from his Ozark Mountain home before packing up for a day of fishing at Table Rock Lake. “It wasn’t even one of our favorites,” he adds a minute later. “We always thought our ballads were our better songs.” But in early 1971, a nation of young baby boomers started singing along with the lyrics. The refrain, which seemed to be repeated endlessly, was impossible to forget: “One toke over the line, sweet Jesus, one toke over the line. Sittin’ downtown in a railway station, one toke over the line.” There was talk of banning the song from radio play because some people thought Brewer and Shipley were two hippies singing about smoking marijuana. Vice President Spiro Agnew “came down on it as a drug song,” Brewer recalls. Some listeners misunderstood the lyrics as “One toe over the line.” Others wondered what all the fuss was all about. The song was created out of boredom, Brewer says. He and Shipley were passing the time one night in Kansas City by singing the words back and forth to each other until a song evolved.

  • Vf & Tso Mofo Mr
    VIOLENT FEMMES AND THE TASMANIAN SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA World Premiere Monday 22 & Tuesday 23 January Due to popular demand Mona Foma today announced an extra show for the world premiere of the Violent Femmes performing with the TSO. For two nights only, the Violent Femmes will take their acoustic punk-rock and work with the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra to reimagine it as a full orchestra experience. Conducted by Hamish McKeich they’ll perform a long list of cult classics such as Add It Up, Blister In The Sun, Kiss Off, Gone Daddy Gone, American Song and Gimme The Car at The Federation Concert Hall on Monday 22 and Tuesday 23 January. “Most rock bands would blow off an orchestra with the amplifiers, but for these two shows we’re prepared to back off on the volume and actually play almost at the same volume as the orchestra musicians and create a more unified approach, “ said Brian Ritchie. The Violent Femmes were formed in 1981 as an acoustic band playing on the streets of Milwaukee. Their main influences at that time were Gene Vincent and the Blue Caps and The Velvet Underground. Enduring a couple of hiatuses throughout their 36-plus year career, the band — original members Gordon Gano and Brian Ritchie, along with drummer John Sparrow have been performing steadily since reuniting again in 2013. The TSO’s performance with the Violent Femmes represents another innovative collaboration for the orchestra, which in 2017 alone has seen sold out concerts with vocal star Kate Miller-Heidke, a Dark MOFO collaboration with Norwegian metal band Ulver, an original show with comedy trio Tripod and a sold out concert with ARIA award-winning and multi-platinum artist Megan Washington.

  • Violent Femmes Hotel Last Resort Bio FINAL 2
    VIOLENT FEMMES HOTEL LAST RESORT bio Gordon Gano: lead vocal, guitar Brian Ritchie: acoustic bass guitar, baritone guitar, vocal, percussion John Sparrow: BBQ, snare, tom, percussion, vocal Blaise Garza: baritone, contrabass and sopranino saxophones, vocal, piano, harmonium, theremin, percussion Violent Femmes 10th studio album, HOTEL LAST RESORT, resides among the groundbreaking band’s finest work, simultaneously refining and redefining their one-of-a-kind take on American music, mingling front porch folk, post punk, spiritual jazz, country blues, avant garde minimalism and golden age rock ‘n’ roll into something still altogether their own. Founded and fronted of course by singer/ guitarist Gordon Gano and acoustic bass guitarist Brian Ritchie, the Milwaukee-born combo remains as warm, wise and weird as ever before, with such new favorites as “Another Chorus” and “Everlasting You” continuing to mine the vast range of ideas, melodic complexity and organic sonic craftsmanship that has characterized the band’s body of work since their landmark self-titled 1983 debut. “I think it’s probably the best [album] we’ve made since HALLOWED GROUND,” Ritchie says. “We didn’t really know that we had something to say, but it turns out that the songs are really good and we were able to sink our teeth into them and come up with something which is just as good as anything we’ve ever done. I’m even a little bit surprised myself.” Violent Femmes are undeniably one of the most inventive and original bands of this or any other era, constantly pushing forward with their singular blend of folk and punk, sarcasm and spirituality.

  • Playlist in 1969, Yale University Admitted Its First Women Undergraduates, Thus Ending 268 Years As an All-Male College
    YALE NEEDS WOMEN Playlist In 1969, Yale University admitted its first women undergraduates, thus ending 268 years as an all-male college. Yale Needs Women (Sourcebooks, 2019) tells their story. Here is the playlist to go with it: 22 songs released between 1969 and 1972, plus a two-song prelude from 1967. A quick scan will show that male performers outnumber women on this playlist, perhaps an odd choice given the Yale Needs Women title. It’s a reflection of the times, however. The music industry needed women too. You can find this playlist on Spotify. Search anne.g.perkins, or use this link: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4aXLc1veNkKCMqCWd0biKE To find out more about Yale Needs Women and the first women undergraduates at Yale, go to yaleneedswomen.com. Many thanks to Rick High, Lily and Mac Perkins-High, and David and Ginger Kendall for their help in creating this playlist. Sources for the liner notes below are at the end. PRELUDE: 1967 1. Aretha Franklin, RESPECT. Aretha Franklin was the first woman ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and “Respect” was her first song to hit #1. She was twenty-five years old, six years into an abusive marriage that she would end in 1969, a black woman in a nation where that status meant double discrimination. “All I’m askin’ is for a little respect.” 2. Country Joe and The Fish, I-FEEL-LIKE-I’M-FIXIN’-TO-DIE RAG. Released in November 1967, the I-Feel-Like-I’m-Fixin’-To-Die Rag became one of the country’s most popular Vietnam War protest songs, particularly after its performance at Woodstock in August 1969.

  • Tegan and Sara to Receive National Arts Centre Award During 2018 Governor General’S Performing Arts Awards Celebrations
    News Release TEGAN AND SARA TO RECEIVE NATIONAL ARTS CENTRE AWARD DURING 2018 GOVERNOR GENERAL’S PERFORMING ARTS AWARDS CELEBRATIONS March 8, 2018 – OTTAWA (Canada) – The National Arts Centre is delighted to announce it will present the 2018 National Arts Centre Award to Tegan and Sara . The acclaimed musicians, songwriters and activists will be honoured at the 26 th annual Governor General’s Performing Arts Awards show on June 2, 2018. This prestigious award is presented annually in recognition of exceptional work by a performing artist or artists in the previous performance year. Twin sisters Tegan and Sara were born in Calgary, Alberta, and are now based in Vancouver, British Columbia. Their career numbers are impressive: more than one million albums sold, seven Gold certifications, one Double Platinum certification, three Juno Awards, two Polaris Prize nominations, and a Grammy nomination. But even more impressive is the conviction that has driven Tegan and Sara’s continuous evolution as artists. Transitioning from acoustic roots to indie rock stars in the mid-2000s with their widely acclaimed albums So Jealous (2004) and The Con (2007), Tegan and Sara began the path of reinvention that continues to inform their creative identity today. Rolling Stone magazine called their 2016 album Love You to Death “their most sophisticated album yet.” Last fall Tegan and Sara released The Con X: Covers, featuring 14 of their favourite artists covering all 14 songs from their 2007 album The Con, in honour of its 10 th anniversary. Album proceeds are being donated to The Tegan and Sara Foundation, which fights for health, economic justice and representation for LGBTQ girls and women, and raises awareness and funds to address the inequalities currently preventing LGBTQ girls and women from reaching their full potential.

  • The Big Day) – Hopefully More Well-Received Than Chance the Rapper’S Ill-Conceived Paean to Loving His Wife by Kenji Shimizu
    Festivus 2020: TBD (The Big Day) – Hopefully More Well-Received than Chance the Rapper’s Ill-Conceived Paean to Loving His Wife by Kenji Shimizu Note to players: Two answers required. 1. ​After declaring “I like my rock and roll all the same,” the singer declares that he doesn’t “give a fuck” if he does either of these two actions in “Back to the Motor League” by Propagandhi. Kurgan quotes a line mentioning these two actions in a church scene in ​Highlander​, referencing a 1983 song’s spoken-word intro in which that line follows the gibberish phrase “Gunter glieben glauten globen.” In a 1979 album’s final track, the second half of a line about these two actions is replaced by the album’s title, (*) ​Rust Never Sleeps​. That line about these two actions is quoted at the beginning of Def Leppard’s “Rock of Ages” and in the closing statements of Kurt Cobain’s suicide note. For 10 points, the song “My My, Hey Hey (Out of the Blue)” by Neil Young declares that “it’s better to” do what action “than to” do what other action? ANSWER: ​burn out​ ​and ​fade away​ ​[accept “​It’s better to burn out than​ ​to ​fade away​”] 2. ​In reference to a song titled after one of these people, the Martin guitar company embedded a coin into 73 limited-edition guitars to commemorate the victim of a September 1973 plane crash. The twist that Marie is the narrator’s six-year-old daughter is the final piece of information given to a person with this job in Chuck Berry’s “Memphis, Tennessee.” The words of a person with this job are juxtaposed with several excuses given by Mrs.
