Tyler was honored to be chosen as the mid-Atlantic featured garden for National Public Gardens Day, a celebration of gardens and the valuable contributions they make to their communities. A beautiful spring day provided the perfect opportunity for new visitors to discover all that we have to offer via tours, learning stations and fun-filled kids’ activities. Quickly following in June was the Annual Conference of the American Public Gardens Association in Philadelphia. Nearly 700 professionals from public gardens and businesses across the country gathered to learn, share and discover the amazing horticultural heritage of the Delaware Valley. Tyler was honored to play a major supporting role as Rick Colbert served as one of three conference co-leaders to provide leadership and coordination for the local planning committee. This extremely successful event ran for an unprecedented five days, generated record attendance, and enabled our colleagues from across the nation to visit to the numerous outstanding institutions that make our area such a horticultural treasure.

  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • Find out What Stern's Firm Is Going to Do . . . Whatever It Takes
    STEVE CLARK to keep it blank. “Find out what Stern’s firm is going to do . whatever it takes,” Pete had said. Unfortunately he hadn’t added, “Within reason.” Even Pete would have to admit that three hours with Tony Caswell pushed the boundary of reasonable. She tried again. “Does Stern want to hire joint experts with us? Maybe a cardiologist? Or a heart surgeon?” She set her coffee cup on the mantle. He patted the empty space on the couch. “Sit. And we’ll talk.” Kristen stared at Tony, as if seeing him for the first time. He wasn’t bad looking, though he was too short for her. His hair was already receding, but his thick beard, shaved moderately close, was an attempt to look like a GQ model. “I’ve sat all night.” He plunked his mug on the coffee table and, surprisingly limber, he rocketed up and sauntered to the fireplace. The way his shoulders ... rolled reminded Kristen of a bad Cary Grant impersonation. He moved to within inches of her. Even in flats she was looking at the top of his head. His right hand crept around her, as if he thought she wouldn’t notice. The left remained in his pocket. Ambition and pride had carried her here. She wanted on Layne badly enough to follow orders. Victory would cement her career. She might someday be the female Joe Jamail or Racehorse Haynes—the greatest lawyers in Texas history. A blown knee had ended her first dream of becoming an All-American small forward, but you didn’t need knees to be a great lawyer.

VINYL Def Leppard were the definitive hard rock band of the ‘80s. There were groups that rocked harder, but few captured the spirit of the times quite as well. Emerging in the late ‘70s as part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, Def Leppard gained a following outside of that scene by toning down their heavy riffs and emphasizing melody. In The Many Faces of Def Leppard, we are going to dig deep into the lesser known work of their members, collaborations, side projects and of course, their hit-filled catalog.
