(1:50) So, I’m cannot remember how I describe you, though Leyte I know is Tacloban. That’s where Imelda is, where they … and then Ormoc and then you come to west side, Palompon, Leyte. That’s where my hometown is. JD: Ok. And, um, can you describe to me the house that you grew up in. ES: Oh. Before the war? Oh my, before the war, it’s alright because we are … we are… at that time, before the war [inaudible] though with Japanese, we are eight kids. Uh huh. And it’s, uh we just, it’s big house, high … we have, I think, eight steps going up. The downstairs, nothing in there, except chickens and pigs. So, it’s ok. It’s only whole house and then one bedroom where my father and mother stay and the baby, but otherwise, as children we sleep in the floor cause we don’t have beds. We just put mat in the floor and it’s time we go sleep, we sleep there and early in the morning, we get up and roll up the mat and put away. That’s it. JD: And you said there were eight children?430 ES: Yeah. JD: And where are you in the line-up? ES: Oh. I’m the oldest. JD: Oh, you’re the oldest? ES: Uh huh JD: Ok. ES: In the family, and then my sister who is passed away already, my brother. So, that time, we are only three girls, but the other died during the war. She’s a baby. Uh. She’s a baby, guess she got scared or something because we run around for how many years trying to hide when they think the Japanese coming. JD: That’s very sad. Ok. Um. So, you said that there were seven brothers and sisters and your parents. Uh. What language or dialect did you speak at home? 430 At the time of the war, there were eight children. Fannie’s mother had more children after the war for a total of twelve children. Fannie Sumaoang January 2016 Transcript – 2 ES: Oh. Visaya JD: Visayan? ES: Yeah JD: And which language do you speak at home now? ES: English JD: English ES: Uh huh JD: Ok (4:38) ES: Even when I got married with my husband we speak English because he’s Ilocano and I’m Visaya, we don’t understand each other [laugh] JD: Ok. So, you never learned Tagalog? ES: No. At that time, no. JD: Ok, and um, when did you first learn English? ES: Oh, even we are kids we go to school because we are under the Americans. Philippines is under the American. We go to school, we speak English. If you out of the fence of the school, they give us ticket. And so right if we get out we speak our own language. JD: So, inside the school grounds you had to speak English all the time. ES: Yes. Uh huh. Otherwise, somebody tried to hear you talking Visaya, they give you ticket and then when you go to school … the school … the teacher will fine us and they will let us work … uh … clean up the room. Yeah. Then when I was first grade, second grade, you know, we are kids, we still do our work. In the yard of the school, we clean it up in there. Nobody will clean it for you. You know, cut the grass all the time. JD: Did you have American teachers or Filipino teachers? ES: What do you mean? JD: Were they American, the teachers, or were they Filipino? ES: No. Filipino. Filipino teachers, but they are speak English because they are mostly … them, they, during the, uh, American, they speak English, they go to school, too, before they teach us. Yeah. Fannie Sumaoang January 2016 Transcript – 3 JD: Ok. Great. Um, so, when you were learning English, was, do you think that was difficult for you, or was that easy? ES: Well, it was difficult because we don’t, we, at that time, we speak English when we go to school, but when we go out, we speak Visaya, my, our own language, so, it’s not, it’s better to learn little bit, when we do it, it’s easy [inaudible] learn the easy way when we are in the lower grade, but when they go higher, they could do better. JD: Ok. Um, are there any particular lessons that you remember from English? For instance, my mom can remember reciting, “milk, milk, I like milk. Thank you mommy.” Do you remember that one? ES: No. We didn’t, we not have milk so much in there, but you know what they teach us? Uh, we’re first grade, we teach us count, counting, and then the food like food, banana, apple or something like [inaudible] there is not much apple there, but orange, those kind of fruit. And, they teach us how to work on the animal, like pig, chicken, like that. I remember that, but I was not so smart when I was first grade. I don’t, because my parents uh didn’t speak English either. It’s just maybe say yes or no because they didn’t go too much in school. You know, in (8:54) .. in those time, when I was growing, even my parents, they said I don’t have to go to school because when I get married, the husband support us, but they believed that, but we still go to school. I still go to school. I just, I didn’t go too much in grade, but they still go to school. JD: Ok. ES: Like my brother, sister, my sister sit next to me. I don’t know how much she speak English, but we do speak English in school, but not at home. Not at home. We don’t do it, because my father my mother don’t speak too much English, you know. They, I guess, I don’t know how old are they when they get married, of course they don’t go to school anymore. That’s how it goes. So, we speak Visaya. I don’t expect to be here in the States [laugh]. But during the war, I learned lots of things, too, because the Americans came there and we mingled with them. I think there was seventeen. I speak English with them when they ask me, “How did you learn how to speak English?” Well, I said, “We got school here.” And we are under the American. We don’t have independence at that time. JD: Right. ES: I could say yes or no. [laugh] (10:43) JD: Right. ES: Yeah JD: Ok, um, so, let’s see. So, if you were in Leyte, um, how far was it to the closest military base. Do you know? ES: The base? Fannie Sumaoang January 2016 Transcript – 4 JD: Yeah ES: It’s in my yard. JD: The military base was in your yard? ES: Yeah. They were there, because there were batallion came in. America [inaudible] force, uh, the Japanese were our town, Leyte. End of Video File 1 Start of Video File 2 ES: Leyte area. They go Tacloban, Ormoc, Bongabonga, Palompon. They are the one they force us to come back to town, otherwise you are in the mountain, but when the American arrive, I remember that we are in the mountain hiding from the Japanese. When the Japa .. uh, when the American arrive we are high ... we climb, we walk to the mountain and then we could see the water with ship where my father go fishing, the big boat will come in, you know, and then the barges come in and then we jumping, jumping.

  • In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence
    In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Crystal Joesell Radford, BA Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2011 Thesis Committee: Professor Beverly Gordon, Advisor Professor Adrienne Dixson Copyrighted by Crystal Joesell Radford 2011 Abstract This study critically analyzes rap through an interdisciplinary framework. The study explains rap‟s socio-cultural history and it examines the multi-generational, classed, racialized, and gendered identities in rap. Rap music grew out of hip-hop culture, which has – in part – earned it a garnering of criticism of being too “violent,” “sexist,” and “noisy.” This criticism became especially pronounced with the emergence of the rap subgenre dubbed “gangsta rap” in the 1990s, which is particularly known for its sexist and violent content. Rap music, which captures the spirit of hip-hop culture, evolved in American inner cities in the early 1970s in the South Bronx at the wake of the Civil Rights, Black Nationalist, and Women‟s Liberation movements during a new technological revolution. During the 1970s and 80s, a series of sociopolitical conscious raps were launched, as young people of color found a cathartic means of expression by which to describe the conditions of the inner-city – a space largely constructed by those in power. Rap thrived under poverty, police repression, social policy, class, and gender relations (Baker, 1993; Boyd, 1997; Keyes, 2000, 2002; Perkins, 1996; Potter, 1995; Rose, 1994, 2008; Watkins, 1998).

  • “Until That Song Is Born”: an Ethnographic Investigation of Teaching and Learning Among Collaborative Songwriters in Nashville
    “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Music Education—Doctor of Philosophy 2016 ABSTRACT “UNTIL THAT SONG IS BORN”: AN ETHNOGRAPHIC INVESTIGATION OF TEACHING AND LEARNING AMONG COLLABORATIVE SONGWRITERS IN NASHVILLE By Stuart Chapman Hill With the intent of informing the practice of music educators who teach songwriting in K– 12 and college/university classrooms, the purpose of this research is to examine how professional songwriters in Nashville, Tennessee—one of songwriting’s professional “hubs”—teach and learn from one another in the process of engaging in collaborative songwriting. This study viewed songwriting as a form of “situated learning” (Lave & Wenger, 1991) and “situated practice” (Folkestad, 2012) whose investigation requires consideration of the professional culture that surrounds creative activity in a specific context (i.e., Nashville). The following research questions guided this study: (1) How do collaborative songwriters describe the process of being inducted to, and learning within, the practice of professional songwriting in Nashville, (2) What teaching and learning behaviors can be identified in the collaborative songwriting processes of Nashville songwriters, and (3) Who are the important actors in the process of learning to be a collaborative songwriter in Nashville, and what roles do they play (e.g., gatekeeper, mentor, role model)? This study combined elements of case study and ethnography. Data sources included observation of co-writing sessions, interviews with songwriters, and participation in and observation of open mic and writers’ nights.

  • Laterooms.Com - Alice in Chains Ready to Rock Turin Submitted By: Laterooms Ltd Tuesday, 4 May 2010
    LateRooms.com - Alice in Chains ready to rock Turin Submitted by: LateRooms Ltd Tuesday, 4 May 2010 Seattle grunge legends Alice in Chains are set to play in Turin this summer, a gig that could provide the perfect opportunity for guests at Turin hotels (http://www.laterooms.com/en/k13666314_turin-hotels.aspx) to dust off their ripped jeans and enjoy an evening of quality alternative music. The band is set to play Colonia Sonora on Wednesday June 9th, with founding member Jerry Cantrell still rocking away alongside William DuVall, who joined the band in 2005 after the death of original vocalist Layne Staley. Fans in the crowd may be pleased to hear that if they are enthusiastic enough they may be treated to an extended set, with the band revealing on their blog that this was the case at a recent gig in St Augustine, Florida. "On a night like tonight, when the crowd is great and the band is a little extra pumped up, they add a song to the encore," they remarked. Attendees can expect to hear songs from the group's back a catalogue of hits, which stretches over more than 25 years and includes hit albums such as their eponymous Alice in Chains record and Jar of Flies. This week, the band confirmed on their official website that they are set to headline Blackdiamondskye in Autumn, with Mastodon and the Deftones providing support. Entrance to the show costs €34.50 (£29.80), with tickets available online. To make the most of the Alice in Chains concert – you should consider booking your hotel Torino (http://www.laterooms.com/it/k13666314_hotel-torino.aspx) to avoid disappointment.

At first glance it appears to be one of those Barack Obama “Hope” posters that the artist Shepard Fairey created back in 2008. (One of the early versions of that poster is now in the National Portrait Gallery collection.) But on closer inspection this one is different. The subject is a different president—Ron Thomas— and the tagline is different, too: “Home.” The poster pays tribute to a speech President Thomas makes at the fall Convocation cere­ mony for first-year students and their families. The freshman orientation schedule is always packed, and the atmosphere is very intense and emotional, so you might not expect anyone to actually remember anything in particular about that speech or any other speech.

  • Secondary Liability for Copyright Infringement & Safe Harbors in The
    CHAPTER FOURTEEN Secondary Liability for Copyright Infringement & Safe Harbors in the Digital Age Introduction Generally, in the common law, “secondary liability” is imposed on someone who does not commit the legal wrong directly, but is found responsible for encouraging, facilitating or profiting from it. As you will see, the Copyright Act has no provisions imposing secondary liability. (Compare to e.g. § 271 of the Patent Act.) As a result, the secondary liability provisions of copyright law are entirely judge-developed, without even an open-ended statutory basis like that given to fair use jurisprudence under § 107. Until recently, there were two principal forms of secondary liability: contributory infringement and vicarious liability. (It should be noted here that the Sony v. Universal case does not clearly delineate whether and when it is talking about contributory infringe- ment, vicarious liability or both.) • Contributory infringement may be found if someone, with knowledge of the infringing activity, induces, causes or materially contributes to the infringing conduct of another. • Vicarious liability—an outgrowth of respondeat superior—may be imposed on someone who has the right and ability to supervise the infringing activity and also has a direct financial interest in the activity. In both cases, there needs to be underlying direct infringement. In other words, someone needs directly to violate the exclusive rights provided by § 106, before contributory or vicarious liability can be imposed on any third party. Sony Corp. of America v. Universal City Studios, Inc. 464 U.S. 417 (1984) Re-read sections I, II and III of the Sony opinion from Chapter 13, page 415.

    Ruff Peggy Shaw and Lois Weaver PROLOGUE (PEGGY enters with a bottle of water, a shoe, and an orange. Three blank television screens envelop her on stage. A large roll of green paper covers the back wall, extending across the floor to the audience edge, creating the playing space.) I was minding my own business, And an icicle of death hit the ocean floor of my brain. (PEGGY hands the orange to an audience member to hold.) I guess I was praying. I was already on my knees. If you get me through this, I’ll stop wearing suits. I’ll get gay married. I’ll pay market rent in Manhattan. I’ll stop wearing skinny jeans. I’ll take anti-depressants. I’ll buy a car from the decade I’m living in. I’ll stop drinking coffee. I’m so sorry I was drinking coffee. If I knew there was an absolute connection to the way I felt, I’d definitely give up coffee. And cigarettes. But I already gave up cigarettes. And just so you know, It’s worth the high blood pressure and the heart disease to order to have been able to smoke for a while. (PEGGY asks another audience member to hold her shoe.) 108 PAJ 119 (2018), pp. 108–132. © 2018 Peggy Shaw and Lois Weaver doi:10.1162/PAJJ_a_00413 Downloaded from http://www.mitpressjournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1162/pajj_a_00413 by guest on 29 September 2021 There was just no more room for new thoughts in my brain.
