The initial order became effective, March 17, 2020, due to the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The orders limit activity, travel and business functions to only those that are essential.

    COMMON GROUND: THE SHARED INFLUENCES AND CHARACTERISTICS OF JAZZ FUSION AND PROGRESSIVE ROCK by JOSEPH BLUNK B.M.E., Illinois State University, 2014 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master in Jazz Performance and Pedagogy Department of Music 2020 Abstract Blunk, Joseph Michael (M.M., Jazz Performance and Pedagogy) Common Ground: The Shared Influences and Characteristics of Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock Thesis directed by Dr. John Gunther In the late 1960s through the 1970s, two new genres of music emerged: jazz fusion and progressive rock. Though typically thought of as two distinct styles, both share common influences and stylistic characteristics. This thesis examines the emergence of both genres, identifies stylistic traits and influences, and analyzes the artistic output of eight different groups: Return to Forever, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Miles Davis’s electric ensembles, Tony Williams Lifetime, Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, and Soft Machine. Through qualitative listenings of each group’s musical output, comparisons between genres or groups focus on instances of one genre crossing over into the other. Though many examples of crossing over are identified, the examples used do not necessitate the creation of a new genre label, nor do they demonstrate the need for both genres to be combined into one. iii Contents Introduction………………………………………………………………………………… 1 Part One: The Emergence of Jazz………………………………………………………….. 3 Part Two: The Emergence of Progressive………………………………………………….. 10 Part Three: Musical Crossings Between Jazz Fusion and Progressive Rock…………….... 16 Part Four: Conclusion, Genre Boundaries and Commonalities……………………………. 40 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………….

  • Libby Manning: the Joy of Learning – Season 2, Episode 1
    Libby Manning: The Joy of Learning – Season 2, Episode 1 Amy: You’re listening to Beyond 1894, a podcast where we hear from Louisiana Tech University scholars, innovators, and professionals on their personal journeys and the impact they’re making in the word around them. I’m your host Amy Bell and my co-host is Teddy Allen. *school bell rings with light piano intro as students shuffle along and walk to class* Amy: In this episode, we will hear from Dr. Libby Manning. She has been a professor here at Tech for about 10 years in the College of Education, teaching Curriculum, Instruction, and Leadership. In our interview, we talked about her experiences as a teacher, her teaching philosophy, and some of her teaching strategies. She even mentioned how she has had to adapt her teaching, due to COVID-19 and physical distancing. Libby: So, what I discovered is they… We built communities often around novels, around characters and books, because when you live through “Number the Stars” or you live through “Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry,” and you go along these journeys with these characters, you can’t help but be moved by that and you can’t help but feel like you as a class somehow got them through those struggles. And they become a part of who you are. Books do, they become a part of you. Amy: The passion Dr. Manning has for her teaching is truly inspiring. After interviewing her, I was motivated to try a little harder to be a better person.

  • Copy of Teen Book Review Binder Template
    HOLDING UP THE UNIVERSE by Jennifer Niven Published in 2016 Rating (0 stars is the absolute worst, 10 stars is the BEST BOOK EVER) Genre(s): Contemporary Action/adventure Science Fiction Fantasy Romance Horror Mystery Nonfiction Historical fiction Other: This is a wild and lovely adventure following two teenage characters named Libby and Jack. Libby was once known as America's Fattest Teen. Once she felt ill and a crane had to take her our of her house. But a few years later Libby lost some weight and decided to start going to public school again for the first time in years. There is also Jack. Jack is the cool guy, he's got the swagger and the charm; he's the person everyone looks to as popular. But the thing they don't know is Jack has prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness. Jack is the only one who knows about his condition, he has not told peers, friends, or even his family. When Jack and Libby meet (in one crazy encounter), nothing is the same anymore, for either of them. I really enjoyed this book, enough to call it my favorite book. Throughout the novel you feel the emotions with the characters and get really attached to each of their stories. I finished the book very quickly because I could just not wait to see what would happen next. I am a big fan of contemporary (especially when it involves romance!). I think that the author did a fantastic job while writing. She incorporated enough detail that you could visualize everything that was going on.

    TESTIMONY OF ELIZABETH A. CHAR, M.D. TO THE SENATE COMMITTEE ON HEALTH MARCH 3, 2021 1:00 P.M. VIA VIDEOCONFERENCE GOVERNOR’S MESSAGE NO. 506 Submitting for consideration and confirmation as the Director of the Department of Health, Gubernatorial Nominee, ELIZABETH CHAR, for a term to expire at noon on 12-05-2022 Chair Keohokalole, Vice Chair Baker, and members of the Committee: Thank you for this opportunity to appear before the committee to discuss my nomination for Director of the Department of Health. I am honored to be leading the State of Hawai‘i Department of Health with our team of 2,500 strong. I am here today for three reasons: 1) I was asked to serve; 2) I believe I am making a positive difference by shaping our state’s COVID-19 and public health response; and 3) I’ve dedicated my career to improving others’ health and saving lives. Before joining this administration on September 16, 2020, I was working as an emergency physician and providing medical direction for multiple county fire departments and EMS and volunteering a medical perspective on COVID-related issues for the City & County of Honolulu. I am a board certified emergency physician and received my training at the University of Hawai‘i, John A. Burns School of Medicine and UCLA. My entire education has been through the public school system in Hawai‘i and California. While I have no formal training in public health, I have developed a great respect and appreciation for the value and comprehensive reach of public health though my years in medicine, seeing patients in busy level 1 trauma centers and in community settings.
