The question presented in this appeal is: Whether the Superior Court erred in vacating CRAB’s decision that Chapter 32 requires a member of the retirement system who previously served as a permanent-intermittent police officer for the same governmental unit, and was compensated for that service, to remit make-up payments to the Commonwealth’s contributory retirement fund in order to obtain retirement credit for such service? STATEMENT OF THE CASE Nature of the Case This is an appeal from the Superior Court’s conclusion that CRAB incorrectly interpreted a provision in Chapter 32 concerning a member’s right to retirement credit for service provided prior to membership in the system. CRAB asks this Court to reverse the Superior Court’s substitution of its own 8 interpretation of that provision, and to affirm CRAB’s reasonable interpretation of the statute it is charged with administering. Prior Proceedings On March 19, 2014, the Plymouth County Retirement Board (“the Board”), wrote to Antonio Gomes (“Gomes”), a member of the Plymouth County retirement system, informing him that in order to receive retirement credit for his prior service as a permanent- intermittent police officer for the town of Plymouth, it was necessary for him to remit make-up payments. Gomes appealed the decision to the Division of Administrative Law Appeals (DALA). RA. 33. During the proceeding before DALA, the magistrate joined the Public

  • In the Aftermath of the Emanuel Nine in the September
    For Immediate Release: September 21, 2015 Press Contacts: Natalie Raabe, (212) 286-6591 Molly Erman, (212) 286-7936 Adrea Piazza, (212) 286-4255 In the Aftermath of the Emanuel Nine In the September 28, 2015, issue of The New Yorker, in “Blood at the Root” (p. 26), David Remnick travels to Charleston, South Caro- lina, and explores the city’s resistance and resilience in the aftermath of the June murders of nine people at Emanuel A.M.E. Church. Like many people in Charleston, Pastor Norvel Goff, Sr., at Emanuel, says that members of the community remain in shock and immense pain “(‘post-traumatic-stress syndrome’ was the term they often used), but they were alive, and feeling joy in their pews—and at their jobs, and at their Bible classes and dinner tables and Sunday strolls—because of the depth of their spiritual lives,” Remnick writes. “This was the way of a church that had been around since the days when enslaved black men and women, in a quest for safety, community, dignity, co- hesion, empowerment, ritual, and peace, broke from white churches and built ‘invisible’ institutions, sometimes called ‘hush harbors.’ ” The black church, even as it has changed, aged, and, in some places, lost ground to mega-churches, Remnick writes, remains a powerful insti- tution of black life, and of black political influence. The families of the Emanuel Nine shocked the nation with their message of forgive- ness at the killer Dylann Roof ’s hearing the day after the murders. That forgiveness is hard to understand for anyone “who hasn’t had to cope with that kind of powerlessness,” James H.

  • Introduction
    Introduction anne grImes had a gift for collecting songs—partly because she knew how and where to find them. “Everybody thinks you find folk music in the hills; you don’t . it’s in people’s heads,” she told a reporter for the Columbus Citizen- Journal in 1971 before performing at Governor John Gilligan’s Inau- gural Gala at the Ohio Theater in Columbus, Ohio. Born into a pio- neer Ohio family in which music had been important over the gen- erations, Anne Grimes felt a kin- ship with the traditional singers she discovered. As she told the reporter: “In the folk music field, the technical term is ‘informants’; I prefer to think of the people as contributors.” During the height of her col- lecting and performing career in the 1950s and early 1960s, Anne Grimes sang several times at the The cover of the Columbus Dispatch Sunday Magazine, annual National Folk Festival February 17, 1952: Anne Grimes and recorded on Folkways. She with her five children—Mindy also became an expert in the lore (2), Mary (4), Jennifer (6), Sara and techniques of the plucked (10), and Steve (12)—in front or lap dulcimer (also referred to of the Jonathan Alder cabin as the mountain or Appalachian west of Columbus. Photo by Dan F. Prugh courtesy of the dulcimer), and the Anne Grimes Columbus Dispatch collection of these rare folk in- struments—now housed at the Smithsonian Institution—ranks among the nation’s finest. But much of her time and energy was devoted to collecting hundreds of songs and ballads that she then performed in concert-lectures with the general theme of Ohio history through song.

  • The Sonic Bildungsroman: Coming-Of-Age Narratives in Album Form
    The Sonic Bildungsroman: Coming-of-Age Narratives in Album Form Dallas Killeen TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin May 2019 __________________________________________ Hannah Wojciehowski Department of English Supervising Professor __________________________________________ Chad Bennett Department of English Second Reader Abstract Author: Dallas Killeen Title: The Sonic Bildungsroman: Coming-of-Age Narratives in Album Form Supervising Professors: Hannah Wojciehowski, Ph.D. Chad Bennett, Ph.D. The Bildungsroman, or coming-of-age story, deals with the transitional period of adolescence. Although initially conceived in the novel form, the Bildungsroman has since found expression in various media. This thesis expands the scope of the genre by describing the “sonic Bildungsroman,” or coming-of-age album, and exploring a few key examples of this previously undefined concept. Furthermore, the record as a medium affords musicians narrative agency critical to their identity development, so this project positions the coming- of-age album squarely in the tradition of the Bildungsroman as a tool for self-cultivation. This thesis examines two albums in great detail: Pure Heroine by Lorde and Channel Orange by Frank Ocean. In these records, Lorde and Ocean lyrically, musically, and visually portray their journeys toward self-actualization. While the works show thematic similarities in their respective presentations of the adolescent experience, Lorde and Ocean craft stories colored by their unique identities. In this way, the two albums capture distinct approaches to constructing coming-of-age narratives in album form, yet both represent foundational examples of the genre due to their subject matter, narrative trajectory, and careful composition. From this basis, this project offers a framework for understanding how popular musicians construct coming-of-age stories in their albums—and for understanding how these stories affect us as listeners.

  • Introduction
    Chapter I Introduction 1.1 Background of the Study Feminism is a movement that advocates for gender equality. The goal of feminism is for all people to be treated equally. This movement appears because women are sick that they are got no rights, cannot give opinions freely, cannot vote, cannot work, cannot get a fair education, to earn fair wages, and told to behave, unlike men. They want to change their lives to have a free life that not strict by their genders roles and wanted an equality between men and women by having the same opportunities that men received. Therefore, feminism has helped a lot of women to live their life to be free and had a huge impact on the everyday role of women in fighting what they believe in. The difference between feminism from other social movement is feminism focusing on gender and how it relates to the oppression of women all around the world. Female empowerment is the movement to make all the feminist goal to happen. Without female empowerment, feminism goal will not be achieved because, if women do not march to empower others, how can others understand what women want, what women have been through, what equal rights are if not properly given the understanding if women do not speak up and women do not 1 fight for it. Female empowerment is to empower other people. To invite all people, to fight together for their rights, to fight for equality. Empowerment enables them to take control of their lives, and their rights. Besides, organize to help each other and make demands on the nation to back and support their movement and for the society for a change of men perspective of women.
