Ceili Rain Erasers on Pencils
Ceili Rain Biography With the exception of two miserable days as an electrician's assistant, Bob Halligan, Jr. has never held a "day job" in his life. The lead singer, songwriter, guitarist and creative force behind the Celtic-flavored rock band Ceili (KAY-lee) Rain has earned his living—and reputation—as a working musician and songwriter for most of his life. Halligan has parlayed that well-deserved acclaim as a writer into a recording career that has seen the release of three highly praised albums for Ceili Rain, the most recent being the Cross Driven (Provident distribution) release, Erasers On Pencils. Erasers On Pencils is the latest celebrated chapter in a career that has found the Nashville-based band continuing to assert itself on both national and international stages. The album once again finds Halligan utilizing his gift for taking universal themes and distilling their essence into a lyrical approach that is capable of touching an audience on a very personal level. The opener, “Jigorous,” for example, tells the story of an aging woman reveling in life again at the sound of a familiar melody; “The Fighting Chair” uses a fishing analogy to encourage the listener to live life to its fullest; “God Done Good” finds Halligan overcome with thanksgiving for his wife and adopted son. “I have no problem laying bare such personal stories,” Halligan asserts. “What else have I got as a songwriter to offer but myself? I find that the things that really get to me are the things that get to others.” Indeed, Halligan has a knack for taking the big ideas and reducing them to their deepest, most emotional roots. -
The Neurosequential Model in Education and School Improvement
Running head: EARLY EXPERIENCES IN THE NEUROSEQUENTIAL MODEL IN EDUCATION The Neurosequential Model in Education and School Improvement EDU 900: Program Synthesis Shawna Walter University of Alberta June 2016 EARLY EXPERIENCES IN THE NEUROSEQUENTIAL MODEL IN EDUCATION 2 MASTER OF EDUCATION IN EDUCATIONAL STUDIES RESEARCH ASSIGNMENT The graduate student research referred to in this paper was conducted as part of the course-based Masters of Education in Educational Studies program, Faculty of Education, University of Alberta. As part of understanding the meaning and process of educational change, students are asked to conduct a small research assignment on their chosen topic. This research assignment is planned during the second summer residency of the MES program and then undertaken and completed during the semester that the students are registered in the EDU 515 course. An experienced instructor with a doctoral degree works with the students, as a class, and guides them throughout the research experience. The students’ research assignments comply with the University of Alberta Standards for the Protection of Human Research Participants and the instructors of the EDU 515 course hold the ethics approval to have the class complete this research assignment. Please note that, unlike research conducted for a Masters thesis, the research completed in the MES program is a course-based assignment under the umbrella of a class ethics approval. For this reason, findings from the research assignment are discussed from this more specific context and the research is referred to as an “assignment”, rather than a study.

Folk Song in Cumbria: a Distinctive Regional
FOLK SONG IN CUMBRIA: A DISTINCTIVE REGIONAL REPERTOIRE? A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Susan Margaret Allan, MA (Lancaster), BEd (London) University of Lancaster, November 2016 ABSTRACT One of the lacunae of traditional music scholarship in England has been the lack of systematic study of folk song and its performance in discrete geographical areas. This thesis endeavours to address this gap in knowledge for one region through a study of Cumbrian folk song and its performance over the past two hundred years. Although primarily a social history of popular culture, with some elements of ethnography and a little musicology, it is also a participant-observer study from the personal perspective of one who has performed and collected Cumbrian folk songs for some forty years. The principal task has been to research and present the folk songs known to have been published or performed in Cumbria since circa 1900, designated as the Cumbrian Folk Song Corpus: a body of 515 songs from 1010 different sources, including manuscripts, print, recordings and broadcasts. The thesis begins with the history of the best-known Cumbrian folk song, ‘D’Ye Ken John Peel’ from its date of composition around 1830 through to the late twentieth century. From this narrative the main themes of the thesis are drawn out: the problem of defining ‘folk song’, given its eclectic nature; the role of the various collectors, mediators and performers of folk songs over the years, including myself; the range of different contexts in which the songs have been performed, and by whom; the vexed questions of ‘authenticity’ and ‘invented tradition’, and the extent to which this repertoire is a distinctive regional one. -

Update to Table 1 2 Prefa c e This paper has been developed by the Stronger Smarter Institute and is based on concepts and approaches that the Institute has developed over a number of years of running leadership programs for school and community leaders across Australia. The paper draws specifically on the published and unpublished work of Chris Sarra and David Spillman, but also incorporates concepts that have been developed by the Stronger Smarter Leadership Program facilitators and through group conversations with the entire 2014 Stronger Smarter Institute team. The paper introduces the concept of High-Expectations Relationships, which together with a ‘positive sense of cultural identity’ and ‘embracing positive Indigenous leadership’, forms one of the three ‘pillars’ of the Stronger Smarter philosophy and approach. We recognise that in introducing the concept of High-Expectations Relationships in this written form we are not able to provide the in-depth understandings that are possible through the experiences of the Stronger Smarter Leadership Program. -
Program Notes by Ed Wight ALLELUIA British and American Composer Tarik O’Regan Remains Active on Both Sides of the Atlantic
Program Notes by Ed Wight ALLELUIA British and American composer Tarik O’Regan remains active on both sides of the Atlantic. Born in London in 1978, he attended Pembroke College, Oxford. O’Regan became composer-in-residence for Corpus Christi College, Oxford in 2000, which launched his professional career as a composer. He also served on the music faculty of Trinity College, Cambridge. Moving to the United States, O’Regan won a Fulbright Fellowship to Columbia University in 2004, another Fellowship at Harvard, and in 2010 was subseQuently appointed to the faculty of the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton. His compositions won the British Composer Award in for vocal composition in 2005 and liturgical composition in 2007, and have been nominated for two Grammy Awards in the United States. While writing a handful of orchestral and chamber works, O’Regan is primarily a vocal composer - with several operas, cantatas, and over sixty works for choir. The Pro Musica Girl’s Chorus of Hungary commissioned this lively 2004 composition. After the brief introduction, the alto voices begin a light, jazz-like syncopated ostinato pattern which lasts throughout the piece. O’Regan soon casts a high-flying soprano melody over it. Listen as the ostinato expands from two to three voices, and the soprano line divides near the end for a wonderful five-voiced climax. PRAYER TO A GAURDIAN ANGEL Born in Lincolnshire in 1958, British composer Patrick Hawes taught at Pangbourne College and Charterhouse School until the age of 40, when he turned to composition full time. Acclaimed in both instrumental and vocal music, he currently lives near the Norfolk coast, and says he is inspired “by the beauty of nature, English literature, and his Christian faith.” His brother Andrew Hawes, an Anglican priest, wrote the lyrics for Prayer to a Guardian Angel. -

Well, tell me after the presentation - you might think that is history. The subject this morning is illegal drugs in America and what we're going to try to do is cover in a very, very short period of time - like an hour or less - about 400 years of history. 04:07:45;29 So we're going to move pretty quickly. If you do have questions, raise your hand, jump right in. Don't worry about if you have comments - raise your hand, jump right in.

And basically the drug problem in this country, quite honestly, is a constant re-run. -
