  • Million Dollar Quartet” by Colin Escott & Floyd Mutrux at the Hippodrome Theatre Through December 2
    “Million Dollar Quartet” By Colin Escott & Floyd Mutrux At the Hippodrome Theatre through December 2 By James Cooper MEMORIES ARE MADE OF THIS … PRODUCTION Flashing lights, shimmering jackets and long musical solos radiate through the production of “Million Dollar Quartet,” now at the Hippodrome Theatre. Though the special effects and costumes are beneficial in some instances, the show lacks emphasis in the one area it should stress the most: the music. The whole story focuses on the decisions of four major musicians from the 1950s: Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis Presley. Music is the main concept within the script, but it certainly isn’t the main concept within the performance. The show focuses on a single event: the night that all four musicians of the “Million Dollar Quartet” were present in the same space at the same time, the Sun Records Studio in Memphis on December 4, 1956. Elvis (Cody Slaughter) used to be a member of the Sun Records family but then he switched to RCA, a bigger label. Since this change, Elvis has lost contact with his former producer, Sam Phillips (Vince Nappo). As Elvis returns with his girlfriend Dyanne (Kelly Lamont) he makes it clear to Sam that he wishes he had stayed at Sun. Sam too wishes that Elvis had stayed, but his main focus is now on producing Johnny (David Elkins) and the up-and-coming Jerry Lee (Martin Kaye). All the while Carl (Robert Britton Lyons) has to decide whether or not he wants to leave Sun Records or move on to Columbia.

  • An Historical Policy Analysis of the Carl D. Perkins Legislation: Examining the History, Creation, Implementation and Reauthorization of the Law
    AN HISTORICAL POLICY ANALYSIS OF THE CARL D. PERKINS LEGISLATION: EXAMINING THE HISTORY, CREATION, IMPLEMENTATION AND REAUTHORIZATION OF THE LAW BY AIMEE MICHELLE LAFOLLETTE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Educational Policy Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2011 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Yoon Pak, Chair Professor James D. Anderson Professor Debra Bragg Associate Professor Christopher Span ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the historical development of the Carl D. Perkins Vocational Education Act of 1984, with the incorporation of ―special populations‖ as a provision in the law from 1963. From 1917 through 1963, vocational funding primarily supported teacher training, research, program improvement, and expansion of vocational programs, in 1963 acknowledging the social climate of the time Congress included provisions to support services for disadvantaged students. In 1984, Congress established prescriptive provisions attaching funds to serve and address the needs of underserved students described as special populations. Vocational education‘s focus expanded from 1963 -1984 to included provisions to create programs eliminating sexual bias and stereotyping. This dissertation traces the foundations by which Congress was led to focus on access to vocational education programs and prescribe funding to serve handicapped, single parents, displaced homemakers, economically disadvantaged, academically disadvantaged, students with limited English proficiency, and gender equity. ii To my children James and Jacob iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I believe Malcolm Gladwell, author of Tipping Point, said it best when he stated that, ―…the people we surround ourselves with have a profound effect on who we are.‖ Personal success can never be attributed to a single individual.

  • Caldonia”—Louis Jordan (1945) Added to the National Registry: 2013 Essay by Stephen Koch (Guest Post)*
    “Caldonia”—Louis Jordan (1945) Added to the National Registry: 2013 Essay by Stephen Koch (guest post)* Louis Jordan Original label “Caldonia” film poster, 1945 “Caldonia” (originally titled “Caldonia Boogie”) became one of Louis Jordan and his Tympany Five’s most enduring hits. The song, with its lyrical catchphrase “Caldon-YAH! Caldon-YAH! What makes your big head so hard!?” set America on its ear and spawned endless cover versions, two of which competed directly with Jordan’s version in 1945. The song had been in Jordan’s repertoire since at least the summer of 1944, when he recorded it for use on a December airing of “Jubilee!,” an Armed Forces Radio Service show for African- American servicemen. In January, 1945 he recorded it for Decca, but the label first released a pairing of Jordan’s “Mop! Mop!” and “You Can’t Get That No More” that became a major hit that winter, and perhaps delayed the release of “Caldonia.” In February, Jordan filmed a performance of it for a short film of the same name, which hit theaters in March. In late Feburary, white bandleader Woody Herman recorded a modern jazz-tinged arrangement by Ralph Burns, who’d heard Jordan perform it live. Herman’s version hit the stores at about the time that African-American bandleader Erskine Hawkins recorded a version for RCA-Victor at the end of March. Decca, perhaps feeling the pressure, released Jordan’s definitive small group version at almost the same time that Hawkins’ disc came out in mid-April. Surprisingly, all three versions of the tunes were hits.

  • A Defense of the Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act
    University of Arkansas ∙ System Division of Agriculture [email protected] ∙ (479) 575-7646 An Agricultural Law Research Article A Defense of the Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act by Richard S. Fischer Originally published in Texas LAW REVIEW 59 TEX. L. REV. 531 (1981) www.NationalAgLawCenter.org Notes A Defense of the Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act [w]e see families crowded into shelters that are more like coops for animals, with children undernourished and in poor health, 2 or 3 years behind in school, with little chance to develop their talents and become fully useful to themselves or their country. This is the ugliest kind of human waste. The plight of the mi­ grant and his family is a charge on the conscience of all of us. I The Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act2 (FLCRA) protects migrant and seasonal farmworkers from abuses of the farm labor con­ tracting system. 3 The Act guarantees that farmworkers receive notice of the terms and conditions of employment offers, and generally deters employers from exposing farmworkers to hazardous conditions, breaching employment agreements, or denying farmworker employees the rights and benefits secured by other federal statutes. Congress in 1980 rejected amendments to FLCRA (Boren Amendment)4 that would have excluded many agricultural employers and most farmworkers from the Act's scope.s FLCRA has weathered similar as­ saults,6 but none so well organized, and none so nearly successful. Most certainly, there will be future attacks'? This Note is a defense of FLCRA. I. STAFF OF SUBCOMM. ON MIGRATORY LABOR OF THE SENATE COMM.
