    ENDER'S GAME by Orson Scott Card Chapter 1 -- Third "I've watched through his eyes, I've listened through his ears, and tell you he's the one. Or at least as close as we're going to get." "That's what you said about the brother." "The brother tested out impossible. For other reasons. Nothing to do with his ability." "Same with the sister. And there are doubts about him. He's too malleable. Too willing to submerge himself in someone else's will." "Not if the other person is his enemy." "So what do we do? Surround him with enemies all the time?" "If we have to." "I thought you said you liked this kid." "If the buggers get him, they'll make me look like his favorite uncle." "All right. We're saving the world, after all. Take him." *** The monitor lady smiled very nicely and tousled his hair and said, "Andrew, I suppose by now you're just absolutely sick of having that horrid monitor. Well, I have good news for you. That monitor is going to come out today. We're going to just take it right out, and it won't hurt a bit." Ender nodded. It was a lie, of course, that it wouldn't hurt a bit. But since adults always said it when it was going to hurt, he could count on that statement as an accurate prediction of the future. Sometimes lies were more dependable than the truth. "So if you'll just come over here, Andrew, just sit right up here on the examining table.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Intertextuality in Popular Music After 1965 (By Joseph R. Matson)
    Intertextuality in Popular Music after 1965 A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Joseph R. Matson IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Peter Mercer-Taylor, Advisor December 2016 © Joseph R. Matson 2016 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The present work is the result of several years’ labor, but I did not labor alone. Many people have generously offered me their support and guidance, and without them, this dissertation would not exist. My entry into higher education was not guaranteed. It depended on substantial financial support, first from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation, which ultimately allowed me to complete a Bachelor of Arts in Music degree from Iowa State University. Then subsequent financial support came from the University of Iowa, where I earned a Master of Arts degree in Musicology, and from the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), which provided funding for me to complete a German language immersion program. Finally, the University of Minnesota supported the pursuit of my doctoral studies in Musicology / Ethnomusicology. Any degree in higher education requires a significant investment of time and resources, and these institutions have invested in me for more than a decade. During my doctoral studies, I gained valuable professional experience through my faculty appointments at Illinois State University, Millikin University, and Illinois Wesleyan University. Each of these institutions took a chance on me in the early stages of my career, and I am grateful for the opportunities they afforded me and for the faith they placed in me. All six of the above-named universities provided access to materials that would otherwise have been inaccessible, primarily through the substantial collections of resources housed in their various libraries.

  • Someone Else
    Someone Else Kevin D. Woodall I’m at a house party. Music hums under the loud drone of the crowd. At one point I hear a familiar guitar wend its way through the buzzing chatter, and I immediately recognize the opening of Weezer’s “Say It Ain’t So.” I haven’t listened to Weezer in about eight years, but something inside me sparks at hearing those notes. I remark to those nearby that “it’s still a good-ass song, in spite of Weezer sucking for the entire last forever,” and I bend my ear to it, letting nostalgia wash Weezer over me. “No One Else” The day after the party I indulge myself in a trip back to my angsty pre-teen and teen Weezer years, and I listen to the Blue Album. When the second track, “No One Else,” comes up, I start singing along—I still know all of the album’s lyrics by heart. But then the chorus 05/1994 comes, and I pause. I stop the track and take out my earbuds. I re-read the lyrics, just to DGC be sure, because I can’t believe what I’m hearing. It’s like I’ve never truly understood this song before. I’m feeling guilt and shame for having loved this song. Weezer had been a cornerstone of my life—“No One Else” especially—but I’m realizing in this moment, with the clear perspective of time and distance, that by idolizing them for so long I may have actually made things worse for myself back in the day.
