  • Análisis Musical De Una Canción
    Nombre: Jadenys S. Díaz Sánchez Fecha: 20 de octubre de 2016 Num. de Est.: 840-14-2148 COMU 4027 Sección: JA0 Análisis Musical de una Canción Tema/Canción: Only Hope Artista: Mandy Moore Duración: 03:54 Género Musical: Pop Breve biografía del artista Amanda Leigh «Mandy» Moore (nacida el 10 de abril de 1984) es una cantante, compositora, actriz y diseñadora de moda estadounidense. Su reconocimiento en el mundo del espectáculo llegó a finales de los años noventa, cuando todavía era adolescente. En 1998 firmó con Epic Records y un año más tarde lanzó su álbum debut, So Real. Su segundo álbum de estudio, I Wanna Be With You, se convirtió en el álbum debut de Moore fuera de Estados Unidos, vendiendo más de 3 millones de copias en todo el mundo. En 2001, lanzó su tercer álbum, In My Pocket; el álbum fue su último en ser certificado por la RIAA, recibiendo una certificación de oro. Poco después, en 2003, Moore lanzó su cuarto álbum de estudio, Coverage, con versiones de clásicos de los sesenta y ochenta, tales como «Have a Little Faith in Me» y «Senses Working Overtime». Después del lanzamiento del álbum, Moore se separó del sello discográfico debido a diferencias creativas. La división llevó a la compañía discográfica a lanzar dos álbumes de compilación The Best Of Mandy Moore y Candy, los cuales han vendido alrededor de 300.000 copias hasta la fecha. Moore no volvió a la música hasta 2007, con el lanzamiento de Wild Hope, su quinto álbum de estudio. Con este álbum la carrera musical de Moore dio un giro hacia música de género pop-folk y dirigida hacia un público más adulto.

    Part One Exterminating Angels There are sicknesses that walk in darkness; and there are exterminating angels, that fly wrapt up in the curtains of immateriality and an uncommunicating nature; whom we cannot see, but we feel their force, and sink under their sword. —Jeremy Taylor, “A Funeral Sermon” 1 THE MASTER “Just coffee, please.” The waitress raised her penciled eyebrows. “You don’t want anything to eat?” she asked. Her accent was thick, her attitude disappointed. Simon Lewis couldn’t blame her; she’d probably been hoping for a better tip than the one she was going to get on a single cup of coffee. But it wasn’t his fault vampires didn’t eat. Sometimes, in restaurants, he ordered food anyway, just to preserve the appearance of normalcy, but late Tuesday night, when Veselka was almost empty of other customers, it didn’t seem worth the bother. “Just the coffee.” With a shrug the waitress took his laminated menu and went to put his order in. Simon sat back against the hard plastic diner chair and looked around. Veselka, a diner on the corner of Ninth Street and Second Avenue, was one of his favorite places on the Lower East Side—an old neighborhood eatery papered with black- and-white murals, where they let you sit all day as long as you ordered coffee at half-hour intervals. They also served what had once been his favorite vegetarian pierogi and borscht, but those days were behind him now. It was mid-October, and they’d just put their Halloween decorations up—a wobbly sign that said TRICK-OR-BORSCHT! and a fake cardboard cutout vampire nicknamed Count Blintzula.

Dissertation Advisor: Steven Levitsky Amanda Leigh Pinkston Insider Democracy: Private Sector Weakness and the Closed Political Class in Democratic Africa Abstract The democratization and market reforms that were implemented across sub-Saharan Africa in the 1990s were intended to disperse political and economic power away from the ruling elite. In a comparison study of Ghana and Benin - two of Africa’s most stable democ- racies - this dissertation shows that neither goal is achieved where the private sector is weak. The result, as demonstrated by the case of Benin, is insider democracy: fully democratic in- stitutions are in place, but government insiders predominate among the political elite; those without pre-existing ties to the state are unlikely to win office.

    Somerset County 2 Creative Writing Anthology The Somerset County Creative Writing Anthology is a component of the annual Somerset County Teen Arts Festival. Although the 2020 Festival was cancelled due to concerns regard COVID-19, the Creative Writing component was completed and is presented here. The Somerset County Teen Arts Creative Writing component is typically a complement to the County school district’s regular English classes in that it offers students the opportunity to work directly with professional writers and poets. Students are encouraged to fine-tune their writing skills and are given insights into the creative process. The Somerset County Cultural & Heritage Commission wishes to commend the students whose work appears in this anthology, and hopes the experience will inspire them to continue writing as an expressive art form. All students, artists, and school liaisons have our heartfelt thanks for their work in helping us prepare what we hoped would be another great festival. We know their dedication to the arts will make the 2021 Teen Arts Festival the best yet!
