  • A Piece of History
    A Piece of History Theirs is one of the most distinctive and recognizable sounds in the music industry. The four-part harmonies and upbeat songs of The Oak Ridge Boys have spawned dozens of Country hits and a Number One Pop smash, earned them Grammy, Dove, CMA, and ACM awards and garnered a host of other industry and fan accolades. Every time they step before an audience, the Oaks bring four decades of charted singles, and 50 years of tradition, to a stage show widely acknowledged as among the most exciting anywhere. And each remains as enthusiastic about the process as they have ever been. “When I go on stage, I get the same feeling I had the first time I sang with The Oak Ridge Boys,” says lead singer Duane Allen. “This is the only job I've ever wanted to have.” “Like everyone else in the group,” adds bass singer extraordinaire, Richard Sterban, “I was a fan of the Oaks before I became a member. I’m still a fan of the group today. Being in The Oak Ridge Boys is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream.” The two, along with tenor Joe Bonsall and baritone William Lee Golden, comprise one of Country's truly legendary acts. Their string of hits includes the Country-Pop chart-topper Elvira, as well as Bobbie Sue, Dream On, Thank God For Kids, American Made, I Guess It Never Hurts To Hurt Sometimes, Fancy Free, Gonna Take A Lot Of River and many others. In 2009, they covered a White Stripes song, receiving accolades from Rock reviewers.

  • Educating Andrew
    EDUCATING ANDREW A PROMISE FULFILLED by Virginia Lanier Biasotto © 2006 by Virginia Biasatto All rights reserved. DEDICATION In the spring of 2003, my mother and I were sitting on her porch reminiscing about Andrew. Her questions awakened memories about the past, and I retold stories about the journey to find the solution for his inability to read. In spite of some short-term memory issues, she hung onto every word. When I was finished, she said, “You must write these stories down.” I was glad that she thought them interesting, but life’s pressures didn’t allow much time for writing. However, she was not to be dissuaded. I would get phone calls saying, “I know you are busy. But you must write those stories down.” One day it came to me that I had written them down. I wrote them down as they happened. I started to dig (I was never much at throwing things away) and low and behold I discovered a large yellowed envelope with the word “ANDREW” printed on it. Inside were a hundred or more typed pages. For a Christmas gift to my mother, I retyped them on the computer and presented them to her in book form. During her final years, she read the book about once a week. Guests in her home had to read it, too. She was very persuasive! It was her encouragement that led me to submit Educating Andrew for publication, and it is to her, Alice Darby Lanier, that I dedicate it. 2 CONTENTS Andrew ........................................................................................................................................ 6 Breakthrough .............................................................................................................................. 9 Connie ........................................................................................................................................

Darkest clouds of trouble, a peace destroyed. Suddenly, senselessly, Publicly. Yet night briefly yields, and rays of love uncommon shine. Broken hearts together, United. Not to supplant, but to illuminate a journey blessed by grace. Deeply etched, always Remembered. Our truest promise, vitally renewed in her: To live and love and strive. Until joyfully reunited, a family Forever. Written for Alaina Petty by anonymous. Dedicated to each of the 17 families. It was only a week prior to February 14, 2018 that our daughter, Alyssa Alhadeff, had selected her course load for the upcoming academic Sophomore year. Honors English, Pre-Calc, Chemistry and Spanish 4 topped her list...had such a bright future ahead of her! Hard to imagine, though, that I now must write about our beautiful 14 year old in the past tense. Not only an academic talent, Alyssa shone brightly athletically as well. Having begun to play soccer at the age of 3, she held the position as attacking mid-fielder wearing the number 8 with pride. Her unbelievable passing skills, coupled with her ability to communicate as a leader on the field, were paving her way to athletic prowess.

  • “The Ten-Year Plan” (1993) and “Bygones”
    Mysteries Lurking in the Everyday: A Translation of Two Short Stories by Miyabe Miyuki A Senior Honors Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for graduation with research distinction in Japanese in the undergraduate colleges of the Ohio State University by Samantha Netzley The Ohio State University June 2010 Project Advisor: Professor Richard Torrance Department of East Asian Languages and Literature Copyright by Samantha Elise Netzley 2010 Abstract This thesis consists of a translation of two short stories by popular Japanese fiction writer Miyabe Miyuki, whose naturalistic style and supernatural flair hint at “the mysteries lurking in the everyday.” The two stories, “The Ten-Year Plan” (1993) and “Bygones” (1994), are provided with an introduction and with translation notes where appropriate. ii Dedication For Sean, who always believed in me and Pete, who was good for it at least 80% of the time iii Acknowledgements I would like to sincerely thank Professor Richard Torrance for serving as my advisor for this project and putting in many long hours going over the original Japanese line by line once a week for three quarters, and for never being too busy to go off on an interesting tangent for a minute or two. I would also like to thank Professors Shelley Quinn and James Fredal for serving on my thesis committee on what was regrettably very short notice, and for graciously enduring my panicked e-mails. I would again like to thank Professor Fredal, as well as Professors Terence Odlin and Wayne Redenbarger, for writing recommendations to SUISS on my behalf and allowing me the privilege of studying modern British literature abroad.

  • Notes on Birds Observed in Yucatan
    Article XVIII. -NOTES ON BIRDS OBSERVED IN YUCATAN. By FRANK M. CHAPMAN. Our knowledge of the bird-life of the peninsula of Yucatan is more complete than the literature relating specially to the subject would lead one to suppose. A bibliography of the papers on Yucatan ornithology contains few titles, but a catalogue of the existing collections of Yucatan birds would enumerate many thousand specimens. By far the largest number of these have been collected by Dr. George F. Gaaumer, formerly of Kansas, and now a practicing physician in Izamal, Yucatan, who, for the past eighteen years, has been a persistent and successful collector of the Yucatan flora and fauna. During the early part of this period Dr. Gaumer's birds were secured by the commercial naturalist, Adolphe Boucard, of Paris; later his collections were disposed of to Messrs. Salvin and Godman. 'These naturalists also obtained the major portion of the specimens collected for Boucard. With the exception of a paper in the 'Proceedings' of the Zoological Society, and one or two minor publications, Dr. Gaumer's collections from the penin- sula have never been separately reported upon. They have, how- ever, been incorporated in the 'Biologia Centrali-Americana,' to which work the student of Yucatan birds must refer. The fact that Dr. Gaumer travelled extensively over the penin- sula, in connection with the uniform character of the ground, renders it extremely probable that the list of Yucatan birds, at least of the permanent and summer resident species, is complete. Future work in this region, therefore, should increase our knowl- edge of the habits, local distribution, and especially the migra- tions of Yucatan birds.
