Anyone may gather it and no limit is set. (Mother Teresa, No Greater Love, 1997) 2. A Banana Peel I look at you and wham, I'm head over heels. I guess that love is a banana peel. I feel so bad and yet I'm feeling so well. I slipped, I stumbled, I fell. (Ben Weisman and Fred Wise, "I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell," sung by Elvis Presley in the film Wild in the Country, 1961) 3. A Spice Love is a spice with many tastes--a dizzying array of textures and moments. (Wayne Knight as Newman in the final episode of Seinfeld, 1998) 4. A Rose Love is a rose but you better not pick it. It only grows when it's on the vine. A handful of thorns and you'll know you've missed it. You lose your love when you say the word "mine."(Neil Young, "Love Is a Rose," 1977) 5. A Garden Now that you're gone I can see That love is a garden if you let it go.

Roza and Prof. Dr. F. Mehring Title of document: It’s Not a Fashion Statement. An exploration of Masculinity and Femininity in Contemporary Emo Music. Name of course: MA Thesis North American Studies Date of submission: 15 August 2018 The work submitted here is the sole responsibility of the undersigned, who has neither committed plagiarism nor colluded in its production. Signed Name of student: Claudia Gielis Gielis /3 Abstract Masculinity and femininity can be performed in many ways. The emo genre explores a variety of ways in which gender can be performed. Theories on gender, masculinity and femininity will be used to analyze both the lyrics and the music videos of these two bands, indicating how they perform gender lyrically and visually. Likewise a short introduction on emo music will be given, to gain a better understanding of the genre and the subculture. It will become clear that the emo subculture allows for men and women to explore their own identity. This is reflected in the music associated to the emo genre as well as their visual representation in their music videos. This essay will explore how both a male fronted band, My Chemical Romance, and a female fronted band, Paramore, perform gender. All studio albums and official music videos will be used to investigate how they have performed gender throughout their career.

RAZ Staff Writer The Department of Residence Life cut its recycling pro- gram this year, handing the job over to students in each res- idence hall to run instead of Residence Life employees. Now, students must buy the recycling bins in their dorms, gather recyclables and truck them to drop off points. Recycling may stop in dorms where there are no students willing to haul off materials. Residence Life Recycling has shifted its focus to concen- trate more on education about the importance of recycling than organizing collections, said Debbie Hanson, Program Coordinator for Residence Life. Jim Van Arsdale, Director of Residence Life, said a pro- posed expansion of the recycling program, not budget cuts, were behind the change. “What I understand is that there was a desire to do more (recycling), and that is what we couldn’t afford,” he said. He would not comment further on why the recycling program had ended. Hanson said budget cuts caused the end of the recycling program. The budget cuts prevented Residence Life from allocating additional funds to meet the demand, she said.

  • Blink-182 Heads to Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City
    For Immediate Release BLINK-182 HEADS TO HARD ROCK HOTEL & CASINO ATLANTIC CITY FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 21 AT 7 PM Atlantic City, NJ (July 23, 2018) – Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Atlantic City welcomes pop- punk rockers blink-182 to Hard Rock Live at Etess Arena on Friday, September 21 at 7 p.m. Tickets are on-sale this Friday, July 27 at 10 a.m. “We are always stoked to get back on the road and play for our fans” say blink-182. “We’re looking forward to playing really fun shows for you all.” Since their humble beginnings twenty-five years ago, when they started playing in a San Diego garage, blink-182 has sold over fifty million albums worldwide and rocked audiences from Adelaide to Zurich having become one of the defining rock bands of their generation. They combine high-energy dynamics with an artistic ambition that transcends any genre. Now with Matt Skiba (of Alkaline Trio) as singer/guitarist, the group has entered a new chapter. Early in 2016, Skiba finally entered the studio with bassist Mark Hoppus and drummer Travis Barker. Although the band had written more than 30 songs in the months before the sessions, once they started working with producer John Feldmann, they soon discarded all the old material and California was born. While blink-182 has already racked up more than their fair share of platinum records and blockbuster singles, Hoppus emphasized, "We're not just a greatest-hits band, although we will play the hits. Blink is alive and well and we're excited about doing cool new stuff.” According to The New York Times, "No punk band of the 1990s has been more influential than blink-182.” Tickets for blink-182 ranging from $39.00 to $59.00 go on sale this Friday, July 27 at 10 AM.
