    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN DIEGO Capitalism and the Production of Realtime: Improvised Music in Post-unification Berlin A Thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Music by Philip Emmanuel Skaller Committee in Charge: Professor Jann Pasler, Chair Professor Anthony Burr Professor Anthony Davis 2009 The Thesis of Philip Emmanuel Skaller is approved and it is acceptable in quality and form for publication on microfilm and electronically: Chair University of California, San Diego 2009 iii DEDICATION I would like to thank my chair Jann Pasler for all her caring and knowledgeable feedback, for all the personal and emotional support that she has given me over the past year, and for being a constant source of positive inspiration and critical thinking! Jann, you are truly the best chair and mentor that a student could ever hope for. Thank you! I would also like to thank a sordid collection of cohorts in my program. Jeff Kaiser, who partook in countless discussions and gave me consistent insight into improvised music. Matt McGarvey, who told me what theoretical works I should read (or gave me many a contrite synopsis of books that I was thinking of reading). And Ben Power, who gave me readings and perspectives from the field of ethnomusicology and (tried) to make sure that I used my terminology clearly and consciously and also (tried) to help me avoid overstating or overgeneralizing my thesis. Lastly, I would like to dedicate this work to my partner Linda Williams, who quite literally convinced me not to abandon the project, and who's understanding of the contemporary zeitgeist, patient discussions, critical feedback, and related areas of research are what made this thesis ultimately realizable.

    2018 Midterms Analysis and 116th Congress Overview CAPITOL COUNSEL, LLC | 700 13th Street NW | Washington, DC 20005 202.861.3200 1 Well, we survived another election…. Unlike 2016 when all the polls were wrong, the 2018 midterms turned out mostly as predicted—the House of Representatives flipped to Democratic control, and the Senate remained in Republican hands, with the Republicans likely expanding their majority. There are a number of races that are still too close to call but at the time of this publication: U.S. Senate: 51 Republicans to 45 Democrats 4 Races Outstanding-Montana, Arizona, Florida* and Mississippi (MS run off will occur on November 27) Republicans flipped Democratic seats in North Dakota, Missouri, and Indiana Democrats flipped a Republican seat in Nevada *Florida Senate race may go to a recount U.S. House of Representatives: 220 Democrats to 193 Republicans 20 Races Outstanding Democrats have currently gained 27 seats (they needed 23 to flip the House) Though it is too soon to tell exactly what the divided Congress will mean on every issue and for every committee, this document provides Capitol Counsel’s outlook for the lame duck session as well as a few key issues for next Congress—including Taxes, Health Care and Financial Services. 2 3 Outlook: Lame Duck Though the House has flipped, the Congress returns next week for its lame duck session under current control. There is little time between now and January (when factoring in Thanksgiving and leadership elections), so Congress will likely focus on bills that are must-pass, where there is a statutory deadline.
