  • The Price of Hot Dog Day Alfred Community Questions Whether HDD Is Worth It Anymore
    @aufiatllux thefiat.wordpress.com Alfred, New York FiatThe Official Newspaper of Alfred UniversityLux | Thursday April 24, 2014 Volume 107, Issue 4 The Price of Hot Dog Day Alfred community questions whether HDD is worth it anymore Dylan Sammut Editor-In-Chief Although Hot Dog Day proves to be the spring highlight for the Alfred community year after year, many have begun to wonder if the festival is worth it. “It is a huge burden on staff and personnel,” John Dougherty, the Director of Public Safety, said. “Volunteer firefighters and medical services are on call 24/7 throughout the weekend, and that’s not exactly cheap.” Hot Dog Day was created as a large community fundraiser, with events and a fair aimed at drawing in families. In fact, AU even hosts Family Weekend at the same time. However, what it has become is something entirely different. Any Alfred community member can comment on the overwhelming amount of drinking and partying that occurs throughout the weekend. “It’s an annual weekend out of control,” a Village resident said, according to the minutes from a Village Board Meeting on May 13, 2013. “The Village needs to consider its responsibility and potential liability if a death were to occur during the event.” To ensure the safety of the Alfred community, roughly 30 people volunteered an average of 10 hours each of active service during the weekend, including six PHOTO PROVIDED | Katie Seery ambulance standbys, 17 ambulance calls Alfred students and community members compete in Alfred’s annual hotdog eating (fewer than 2012), and four fire calls in contest 2013, according to the “Village Broadside: Hot Dog Day Edition,” a press release from There were 38 arrests last year, but oddly enough, that HDD draws in many visitor who put the safety weekend, residence life and the Wellness the Village of Alfred.

    SONGS FOR WAITERS: A LYRICAL PLAY IN TWO ACTS Thesis Submitted to The College of Arts and Sciences of the UNIVERSITY OF DAYTON In Partial Fulfillment for the Requirements for The Degree of Master of Arts in English By Andrew Eberly Dayton, Ohio May, 2012 SONGS FOR WAITERS: A LYRICAL PLAY IN TWO ACTS Name: Eberly, Andrew M. APPROVED BY: ___________________ Albino Carillo, M.F.A. Faculty Advisor ____________________ John P. McCombe, Ph.D. Faculty Reader ____________________ Andrew Slade, Ph.D. Faculty Reader ii ABSTRACT SONGS FOR WAITERS: A LYRICAL PLAY IN TWO ACTS Name: Eberly, Andrew M. University of Dayton Advisor: Albino Carillo, M.F.A. Through the creative mediums of lyrical poetry, monologues, and traditional dramatic scenes, Songs for Waiters concerns an owner and two employees at an urban bar/restaurant. Through their work, their interactions with the public and each other, and reflecting on their own lives, the three men unpack contemporary debates on work, violence, and sexuality. The use of lyrical poetry introduces the possibility of these portions of the play being put to music in a performance setting, as the play is written to be workshopped and performed live in the future. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT……………………………………………………………….…………..…iii ACT I…………………………………………………………………………...…………1 ACT II……………………………………………………………………………………35 iv ACT I The play begins with no actors onstage. The set consists of café tables upstage right and left and a bar upstage center. The décor is that of a classic bar with some history. The bar is George’s—known for good food. It’s independent, casual, eclectic, open late, and located on High Street in Columbus, Ohio.

  • Six Weeks Module 5
    SIX WEEKS TO SUCCESSFUL CHRISTIAN SONGWRITING with John Chisum MODULE #5 - MAKING YOUR SONGS SING! INTRODUCTION Hi, everyone, and welcome back to Six Weeks to Successful Christian Songwriting, an online coaching experience aiming to empower you to write the best songs you’ve ever written and to transform your life as you dig deeper into Jesus for your writing inspiration! This is John Chisum for Nashville Christian Songwriters. I don’t know about you, but I have enjoyed every minute of this and my hope is that you’ve come alive in your songwriting! Everything I’ve shared with you has come straight out of my heart and out of my 30+ years of writing and publishing. I’ve had such an amazing life of working with some of the best Christian artists and songwriters—I’m loving sharing those insights with you! What I hope you’ll keep in mind is that this six week’s coaching is about equipping you, giving you the tools you can use the rest of your life to write great songs. It all doesn’t come to a crashing halt when the six weeks is over and you’ve listened through each module. In fact, that’s just where it all STARTS! These modules are broken up into 20- 30-minute segments in hopes they’ll be more digestible for you and that you’ll want to come back to them again and again, or at least print out the transcripts, put them in a song notebook and review them anytime you’re feeling stuck and needing a little boost to get going again.
