  • The Mercurian Volume 3, No
    The Mercurian A Theatrical Translation Review Volume 3, Number 4 Editor: Adam Versényi ISSN 2160-3316 The Mercurian is named for Mercury who, if he had known it, was/is the patron god of theatrical translators, those intrepid souls possessed of eloquence, feats of skill, messengers not between the gods but between cultures, traders in images, nimble and dexterous linguistic thieves. Like the metal mercury, theatrical translators are capable of absorbing other metals, forming amalgams. As in ancient chemistry, the mercurian is one of the five elementary “principles” of which all material substances are compounded, otherwise known as “spirit”. The theatrical translator is sprightly, lively, potentially volatile, sometimes inconstant, witty, an ideal guide or conductor on the road. The Mercurian publishes translations of plays and performance pieces from any language into English. The Mercurian also welcomes theoretical pieces about theatrical translation, rants, manifestos, and position papers pertaining to translation for the theatre, as well as production histories of theatrical translations. Submissions should be sent to: Adam Versényi at [email protected] or by snail mail: Adam Versényi, Department of Dramatic Art, CB# 3230, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599-3230. For translations of plays or performance pieces, unless the material is in the public domain, please send proof of permission to translate from the playwright or original creator of the piece. Since one of the primary objects of The Mercurian is to move translated pieces into production, no translations of plays or performance pieces will be published unless the translator can certify that he/she has had an opportunity to hear the translation performed in either a reading or another production-oriented venue.

City Manager Henry Graper said he does not plan to replace Berry, but will instead go to a “ police commander” method where supervisory responsiblities will fall to the new police commander, while administration, financial and negoti­ ation responsiblities will be shifted to other city departments. The elimination of Berry’s position will result'in a cost savings, Graper said.

The city manager and POAM president Michael Gardner met Tuesday to discuss “needs, philosophy and rhetoric” but did not reach any agreements on concessions, the city manager said. „ • The two-year agreement between the city and the township requires that the Plymouth police force remain at its current staffing level of 19 sworn officers.

  • GET REAL HONORS THESIS Presented to the Honors College of Texas State Univers
    GET REAL HONORS THESIS Presented to the Honors College of Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation in the Honors College by David Randolph Russell San Marcos, Texas May 2016 GET REAL by David Russell Thesis Supervisor: ________________________________________________ Alan Schaefer, M.F.A. Department of English Second Reader: ________________________________________________ Ron Haas, Ph.D. Honors College Approved: ________________________________________________ Heather C. Galloway, Ph.D. Dean, Honors College Acknowledgments I owe tremendous gratitude to everyone who helped this project come to fruition. This includes those who collaborated on the project, those who encouraged me throughout the process, and those who have ever had any influence on my perspective—may their influence shine on this album. First and foremost, I thank Professor John Hood. This thesis wouldn’t exist were it not for his impact. Four years ago—a freshman at Texas State University with no idea where to steer my academic path—I took the fateful step into Mr. Hood’s Honors screenwriting class. I finally had a direction in which I was inspired to drive my focus in college: creating. Professor Hood was the first professor that I had at Texas State who took a personal interest in me and inspired me to work harder. Through Mr. Hood’s support, I have become an Honors class junkie and have learned to value my own potential with a confidence that I wouldn’t otherwise have. I am grateful to Professor Hood for believing in me and helping me get to where I am today. Secondly, I thank Professor Alan Schaefer, who has not only amazed me with his knowledge of 1960s European cinema but has also been a fellow musician in the contemporary Austin scene with whom I’ve been able to discuss rock ’n’ roll.

  • Inspirational Songs for Vocals, Piano, and Guitar. Melody, Chords and Lyrics to Accompany the Album
    Inspirational songs for vocals, piano, and guitar. Melody, chords and lyrics to accompany the album. Joy In Our Hearts Greetings to you music lovers! Thank you so much for wanting to sing and/or play the songs on my new CD, “Joy In Our Hearts.” I am honored and blessed that you are helping me get my music out into the world! I truly believe that positive music is a healing force and that spreading positive affirmations and messages is a noble act. So whether you are singing or playing for your own enjoyment, or performing these songs to an audience, you are helping to heal the world – one song at a time. As I have said with all my other CDs and songbooks, I encourage you to make these songs or chants your own. I give you permission to change the words, alter the melody, change the key – whatever it takes for you to “own” it as your own. The chords and keys to all of this music is in the key that I sang it on the CD, but at the end of this book I have included my “Karen Drucker Handy Dandy Easy Music Method,” which will help you transpose the key to a key that works for you, help you figure out the chords, and maybe a few other tidbits you didn’t know. As you will see I have written quite a lot of these songs and chants with other New Thought artists. I would encourage you to check out their websites and find more wonderful music from each of them! Thank you again for supporting my music and I hope you enjoy these songs and chants! Musically, Karen Today I Choose Words & Music: Karen Drucker I truly believe that how we start our day is what sets the tone for the day.

  • Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992
    Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 By Felicia Angeja Viator A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair Professor Scott Saul Fall 2012 Abstract Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 by Felicia Angeja Viator Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair “Gangster Boogie” details the early development of hip-hop music in Los Angeles, a city that, in the 1980s, the international press labeled the “murder capital of the U.S.” The rap music most associated with the region, coined “gangsta rap,” has been regarded by scholars, cultural critics, and audiences alike as a tabloid distortion of East Coast hip-hop. The dissertation shows that this uniquely provocative genre of hip-hop was forged by Los Angeles area youth as a tool for challenging civic authorities, asserting regional pride, and exploiting the nation’s growing fascination with the ghetto underworld. Those who fashioned themselves “gangsta rappers” harnessed what was markedly difficult about life in black Los Angeles from the early 1970s through the Reagan Era––rising unemployment, project living, crime, violence, drugs, gangs, and the ever-increasing problem of police harassment––to create what would become the benchmark for contemporary hip-hop music. My central argument is that this music, because of the social, political, and economic circumstances from which it emerged, became a vehicle for underclass empowerment during the Reagan Era.

It was a local and I intended to sleep on the beach at Santa Barbara that night and catch either another local to San Luis Obispo the next morning or the first class freight all the way to San Francisco at seven p.m. Somewhere near Camarillo where Charlie Parker'd been mad and relaxed back to normal health, a thin old little bum climbed into my gondola as we headed into a siding to give a train right of way and looked surprised to see me there. He established himself at the other end of the gondola and lay down, facing me, with his head on his own miserably small pack and said nothing. By and by they blew the highball whistle after the eastbound freight had smashed through on the main line and we pulled out as the air got colder and fog began to blow from the sea over the warm valleys of the coast.
