The Coral, Leed Uni | Nouse Nouse Web Archives The Coral, Leed Uni Page 1 of 2 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Music › News Features Reviews Playlists The Coral, Leed Uni By Pete Sivey Tuesday 2 December 2003 Rock n’ Roll bands find themselves in a serious quandary in The Modern Age: How to sound fresh and exciting with the tired old guitars, drums and singer formula. Some groups resort to a contrived attempt at futurism, see Muse’s apocalyptic wailing and almost all ‘nu’-metal. Others evoke a ‘classic’ period in rock’s history, trying to capture some of its success. An example is Jet’s passable imitation of ‘70s Rolling Stones. Bands like The Coral however seem able to relax their genre paranoia and draw from a large recipe book of sounds and influences. This allows their inventiveness and songwriting to speak for themselves. At ‘The Refectory’, Leeds Student Unions’ only slightly grander version of Derwent dining hall, The Coral are preaching to the converted. After paying absolutely no attention to interesting support band ‘Mountaineers’, the young studenty crowd squeal with delight as new single ‘Bill McCai’ opens the set. First album material seems to get the best reception, simply because of how well it converts to a live setting compared with the more laid back ‘Magic and Medicine’ songs. The outstanding ‘Goodbye’ is simply electric with Bill Ryder-Jones’ guitar riffs gloriously piercing through the band’s sound. Almost equally good is ‘Waiting For The Heartaches’ who’s slow skanking reggae verse is contrasted by a raucous live version of the song’s stomping chorus and guitar solo. Unfortunately, a dedication to playing all the singles ensures the dull ‘Don’t Think You’re the First’ is played at the expense of more deserving second album songs. Notably, the brilliant ‘Talkin Gypsy Market Blues’ is left out despite being the most danceable song on ‘Magic and Medicine’. Another disappointment is the much-anticipated ‘Skeleton Key’ which is accelerated to twice its original tempo to resemble a confusing happy-hardcore hoedown. In general, the band seemed to emphasise and extend the instrumental interludes in their songs to great effect. This trait was most obvious in their final song, ‘Migraine’, a taster from their forthcoming (Spring 2004) album which finished with a wall of noise even Spiritualized would have been proud of. Overall, the gig was something of a tour de force. The Coral seem confident of their position in Britain’s rock landscape, having carved out a group of loyal fans willing to be impressed by every musical avenue the band explores.

  • The Music Column That Wouldn't Die: New Album Reviews
    The Music Column That Wouldn’t Die: New Album Reviews. I told myself I was over this, that I had retired from the world of music reviews. I had moved onto bigger and better things (mostly staring at the wall and wondering why nobody calls me anymore). Yet here I am, a mere few months after burning my bridges, giving up on new music and making a world of enemies, back in the game. Did I miss the constant abuse, the being paid in soiled pennies and the lack of recognition which writing this unremembered column entailed? Funnily enough, I did! It was listening to the post punk genius of the new Dry Cleaning record that did it. I thought to myself ‘someone has to take it upon themselves to tell the world just how good this album is’. After a moment of quiet reflection where I drank a glass of lukewarm Ribena to calm the nerves, I decided that that person may as well be me. By JOHN BITTLES So, here we are. Bittles’ Magazine, like some particularly bothersome zombie with a bad haircut and worse breath, has been reborn. And what a re-introduction we have! In this month’s reviews there is the art heavy punk funk strut of Squid, the melancholy dream pop of White Flowers, Thomas Fehlmann’s rich ambiance, the return of living legends The Coral, the skewed pop of Dntel, and Dry Cleaning of course. So, tell all your friends, phone the tabloids, and let us begin… New Long Leg by Dry Cleaning.

  • Medical Literacy in Medieval England and the Erasure of Anglo-Saxon Medical Knowledge
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: LINGUISTIC ORPHAN: MEDICAL LITERACY IN MEDIEVAL ENGLAND AND THE ERASURE OF ANGLO-SAXON MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE Margot Rochelle Willis, Master of Arts in History, 2018 Thesis Directed By: Dr. Janna Bianchini, Department of History This thesis seeks to answer the question of why medieval physicians “forgot” efficacious medical treatments developed by the Anglo-Saxons and how Anglo- Saxon medical texts fell into obscurity. This thesis is largely based on the 2015 study of Freya Harrison et al., which replicated a tenth-century Anglo-Saxon eyesalve and found that it produced antistaphylococcal activity similar to that of modern antibiotics. Following an examination of the historiography, primary texts, and historical context, this thesis concludes that Anglo-Saxon medical texts, regardless of what useful remedies they contained, were forgotten primarily due to reasons of language: the obsolescence of Old English following the Norman Conquest, and the dominance of Latin in the University-based medical schools in medieval Europe. LINGUISTIC ORPHAN: MEDICAL LITERACY IN MEDIEVAL ENGLAND AND THE ERASURE OF ANGLO-SAXON MEDICAL KNOWLEDGE by Margot Rochelle Willis Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History 2018 Advisory Committee: Associate Professor Janna Bianchini, Chair Associate Professor Antoine Borrut Professor Mary Francis Giandrea © Copyright by Margot Rochelle Willis 2018 Dedication To my parents, without whose encouragement I would have never had the courage to make it where I am today, and who have been lifelong sources of support, guidance, laughter, and love.

  • Drug Discovery from Plants
    Chapter 1 Drug Discovery from Plants A.A. Salim, Y.-W. Chin and A.D. Kinghorn () Division of Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmacognosy, College of Pharmacy, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Many plant-derived compounds have been used as drugs, either in their original or semi-synthetic form. Plant secondary metabolites can also serve as drug precursors, drug prototypes, and pharmacological probes. Re- cent developments in drug discovery from plants, including information on approved drugs and compounds now in clinical trials, are presented. There are also several plant extracts or “phytomedicines” in clinical trials for the treat- ment of various diseases. In the future, plant-derived compounds will still be an essential aspect of the therapeutic array of medicines available to the physician, particularly with the availability of new hyphenated analytical methods such as LC-NMR-MS and LC-SPE-NMR to accelerate their future discovery. Keywords Natural products, Plant-derived drugs, Drug discovery, Drug development, Drug precursors, Drug prototypes, Pharmacological probes, New therapeutic agents, Clinical trials, Accelerated discovery techniques 1.1 The Role of Plants in Human History Over the centuries humans have relied on plants for basic needs such as food, clothing, and shelter, all produced or manufactured from plant matrices (leaves, woods, fibers) and storage parts (fruits, tubers). Plants have also been utilized for additional purposes, namely as arrow and dart poisons for hunting, poisons for murder, hallucinogens used for ritualistic purposes, stimulants for endur- ance, and hunger suppression, as well as inebriants and medicines. The plant chemicals used for these latter purposes are largely the secondary metabolites, which are derived biosynthetically from plant primary metabolites (e.g., carbo- hydrates, amino acids, and lipids) and are not directly involved in the growth, development, or reproduction of plants.
