Oh yes, you know they’re wicked, you do your best to beat them down. But what if, just what if, you should be basking in these baddies rather than shunning them? What if a life reveling in the seven sins would bring you overwhelming happiness, never-ending fulfillment? And what if there were seven other sins that you really should be dodging? In The 7 Lively Sins, best-selling author Karen Salmansohn turns the familiar sins on their heads and dares us to indulge in them with gusto. What’s more, she unmasks the seven so-much-deadlier sins: emotional masochism, guilt, fear, repression of self-expression, need for speed, worry, and apathy. These are the real spirit-killers, so watch out for them! If they sneak into your life, you’re guaranteed a joyless future. But if you welcome those seven lively sins, well, a good time will be enjoyed by all. So be lustful! Be greedy! Be happy, dammit! KAREN SALMANSOHN is the best-selling author of How to Be Happy, Dammit; How to Make Your Man Behave in 21 Days or Less Using the Secrets of Professional Dog Trainers; and the Alexandra Rambles On series for ’tween readers. She is the founder of Glee Industries, an SALMANSOHN award-winning image consulting and book packaging firm serving clients such as MTV, KAREN Nickelodeon, Oxygen Media, and Avon. Salmansohn is also a regular lifestyle reporter for how to FOX TV. She lives in New York City.

You used to be known amongst your friends as “THE GREAT ENTERPAINER.” 4 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 5 You loved to “enterpain” everyone with your amusing stories of disappointment, pain, woes, conflict, and miffed-ness. And everyone laughed…ha,ha,ha… and begged you to tell them all yet another funny/sad/bitter/sweet plot development in that movie-for-one called your life. 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 6 During this time you even felt CONVINCED that your life NEEDED disappointment, pain, woes, conflict, and miffed-ness…IN ORDER TO BE INTERESTING. 6 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 7 And of course you wanted your life to be interesting. Who wouldn’t? 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 8 THE ANSWER: 5,678,389,261* people in China, that’s who. *(Um, give or take 456,987,001. You forget exactly how many people live in China right now.) 8 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 9 In China, you’ve been told, they use the word “interesting” as a curse. “May you live in interesting times,” the Chinese tell a person they wish to punish. Which confused you. You wanted your life to be interesting… NOT A PUNISHMENT. Or did you? 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 10 It was then that you wondered: 10 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 11 Did you — on some secret level — want to punish yourself? 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 12 Did you — 12 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 13 on some secret level — or even not so secret level — feel guilty about attaining too much — too much pleasure, too much enjoyment, too much glee? 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 14 You thought about this deeply… and that’s when you realized (CLUNK!)… 14 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 15 geez, you were a SILLY YOU. It’s silly to feel bad when you start to feel good. And that’s when you realized… 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 16 LIFE LESSON #1 You’ve got to stop with the enterpainment already! You deserve pleasure, happiness, glee, victory, joy, ardor, devotion, commitment, harmony, balance, comfort! 16 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 17 And all these can be interesting and entertaining — without all the enterpainment options. Lots of people enjoy stories with happy endings — and, dammit, it’s time you became one of these lots. It’s good to feel good about feeling good. Even when it comes to your love life. Especially when it comes to your love life. That’s when you also realized… 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 18 LIFE LESSON #2 LOVE MINUS PAIN DOES NOT = PLAIN OL’ LIKE. LOVE CAN INDEED COME IN A PAIN-FREE FORMULA. 18 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 19 Sadly, you didn’t always know this. You used to joke, “I relate to those feisty Europeans who use the words ‘passion’ and ‘suffering’ interchangeably.” 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 20 You used to joke,“If there IS such a thing as life on other planets,then the way we’ll be able to tell if they’re more advanced than us is NOT by asking to see their technology…but by finding out if they have dating. If they don’t — then they’re a more evolved species.” 20 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 21 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 22 Yes, you were quite a kidder — only you were never quite sure if you were kidding. 22 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 23 Yes, at this lowly point in your life you no longer believed in attraction… in fact you thought it should be renamed subtraction because it had soooo many minuses.

Now you know… 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 24 LIFE LESSON #3 JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE IS A CAUSE FOR LUST DOES NOT MAKE THEM A LOST CAUSE. LUSTING CAN BRING LOTS OF EVERLASTING, EVERLUSTING LOVE. 24 7SIN F aug15:7SIN F 8/24/15 3:10 PM Page 25 You can be lovable without being leavable. Lust is not a foe… Nor a faux friend.

Briefly describe the rationale for assignment to foundation area(s) and subgroup(s) chosen. This course falls into social analysis and visual and performance arts analysis and practice because it shows how punk, as a subculture, has influenced alternative economic practices, led to political mobilization, and challenged social norms. This course situates the activity of listening to punk music in its broader cultural ideologies, such as the DIY (do-it-yourself) ideal, which includes nontraditional musical pedagogy and composition, cooperatively owned performance venues, and underground distribution and circulation practices. Students learn to analyze punk subculture as an alternative social formation and how punk productions confront and are times co-opted by capitalistic logic and normative economic, political and social arrangements. 3.

  • DICK, MARRISSA R., Ph.D. an African American Woman's
    DICK, MARRISSA R., Ph.D. An African American Woman’s Educational Journey: Pragmatic and Pedagogical Practices of Fantasy. (2012) Directed by Dr. Kathleen Casey. 157 pp. My dissertation is an autobiographical narrative about my journey through a non-pedagogical and oppressive school system, to an oppressive marriage, and back to a graduate program that, in my opinion, epitomizes the essence of pedagogy. I explain how fantasy theory has situated itself in my life as a metacognitive tool in order to save my conscious reality as it guided me towards transcendence. I address my introduction to fantasy as a child inside of the classroom. I talk about mis-educative experiences inside of the classroom and provide examples of those experiences. I discuss microaggression and how it was played out during my earlier educational years as well as describe my experience with internal-microaggression during my master’s program. I explain how fantasy returned to my life during my marriage and divorce. I also discuss my relationship with the Black church utilizing soul therapy. I talk about my African American contemporary Christian romance novels and how writing them allowed me to be reflective on my past relationships so I could still have faith and hope of love in my future. I conclude my dissertation by providing examples of my teaching pedagogy and my inspirations for those reading my dissertation. In essence this dissertation is a qualitative culmination of past recollections, current reflections, and future endeavors as I continue to learn and transcend through my lifelong journey with education.

    A SPACE FOR CONNECTION: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL INQUIRY ON MUSIC LISTENING AS LEISURE by JOSEPH ALFRED PATE IV (Under the Direction of Corey W. Johnson) ABSTRACT This polyvocal text leveraged Post-Intentional Phenomenology (Vagle, 2010) to trouble, open up, and complexify understanding of the lived leisure experience (Parry & Johnson, 2006) of connection with and through music listening. Music listening was foregrounded as one horizon within the aural soundscape that affords deeply meaningful and significant experiences for many. Past scholarship within the Leisure Studies literature has primarily attended to the impact and relevancy of music in the lives of adolescents. This study focused on engagement with music of five adults, accessing phenomenology as both a philosophical and methodological lens to look along (Lewis, 1990) this lived-experience. Using multiple voices and styles of representation, this polyvocal work challenged traditional ways of knowing by inviting listening, music, and voice to serve as additional data embedded throughout its discursive representation. Accessing Bachelard‟s (1990) phenomenology of the resonation-reverberation doublet revealed five partial, fleeting, and tentative manifestations (Vagle, 2010) of this lived leisure experience, which included: Getting Lost: Felt Resonation and Embodiment; I‟m Open: Openness, Receptivity, and Enchantment; Serendipitous Moments; The Found Mirror: Oh There You Are; and Cairns and Echoes: The Lustering Potency of Song. Ultimately, music appeared to speak to so as to speak for participants, providing musical affirmation and sustenance throughout their lives.

  • White Grass Stories from the National Trust for Historic Preservation Web Site - Downloaded May 2014
    White Grass Stories from the National Trust for Historic Preservation Web Site - Downloaded May 2014 “Share Your Story” The entries below are from a web site established by the National Trust for Historical Preservation as a supplement to its fund raising efforts to support the rehabilitation work at the historic White Grass Ranch, Grand Teton National Park, Moose, Wyoming. Called “Share Your Story,” former dudes, wranglers and special friends of the dude ranch era (1913-1985) were invited to enter a story/post a story on the Trust’s web site. The site was taken down in 2014 after the Trust closed its fundraising efforts having met its goal of over $970,000. Through an agreement with the National Trust, the White Grass Heritage Project is able to archive and republish those stories, and preserve an important part of White Grass Ranch history. NOTE: When the individual stories below were first posted on the National Trust’s web site, some posting dates were inaccurate due to a computer glitch. Information contained in “White Grass Ranch: A Compilation of Stories from the National Trust for Historic Preservation Website and More, 2014” created by Rachel Terhune was used to correct noted inaccuracies. Terhune’s booklet is archived in the Grand Teton National Park and the Jackson Hole Historical Society and Museum in Jackson, Wyoming Edited by Roger Butterbaugh, Seasonal Caretaker at White Grass Ranch/National Park Service Volunteer; Coordinator of the White Grass Heritage Project which aims to collect oral histories, historical photos, artifacts and more for archival purposes at the Grand Teton National Park and the Jackson Hole Historical Society and Museum -- March 25, 2016.
