  • Neglected Jazz Figures of the 1950S and Early 1960S New World NW 275
    Introspection: Neglected Jazz Figures of the 1950s and early 1960s New World NW 275 In the contemporary world of platinum albums and music stations that have adopted limited programming (such as choosing from the Top Forty), even the most acclaimed jazz geniuses—the Armstrongs, Ellingtons, and Parkers—are neglected in terms of the amount of their music that gets heard. Acknowledgment by critics and historians works against neglect, of course, but is no guarantee that a musician will be heard either, just as a few records issued under someone’s name are not truly synonymous with attention. In this album we are concerned with musicians who have found it difficult—occasionally impossible—to record and publicly perform their own music. These six men, who by no means exhaust the legion of the neglected, are linked by the individuality and high quality of their conceptions, as well as by the tenaciousness of their struggle to maintain those conceptions in a world that at best has remained indifferent. Such perseverance in a hostile environment suggests the familiar melodramatic narrative of the suffering artist, and indeed these men have endured a disproportionate share of misfortunes and horrors. That four of the six are now dead indicates the severity of the struggle; the enduring strength of their music, however, is proof that none of these artists was ultimately defeated. Selecting the fifties and sixties as the focus for our investigation is hardly mandatory, for we might look back to earlier years and consider such players as Joe Smith (1902-1937), the supremely lyrical trumpeter who contributed so much to the music of Bessie Smith and Fletcher Henderson; or Dick Wilson (1911-1941), the promising tenor saxophonist featured with Andy Kirk’s Clouds of Joy; or Frankie Newton (1906-1954), whose unique muted-trumpet sound was overlooked during the swing era and whose leftist politics contributed to further neglect.

  • The Empty Mirror
    The Empty Mirror "This small and admirable memoir records the experiences of a young Dutch student who spent a year and a half as a novice monk in aJapanese Zen Buddhist monastery. As might be expected, the author shows a deep respect for the teachings of Zen. What makes this account extraordinary, however, is that the book contains none of the convert's irritating certitude, and no suggestion that the reader rush to follow the author's example." Time "The koans, the riddles, the kinhin, the exercises of concentration, the sutra, the sermons, and the rest are only a part of what goes on in these pages. What is accessible is the day-to-day description of life, of the monks themselves and of the others he met, of the jokes they played and the food they ate, of the moments of satori, the explosive moment of an understanding surpassing understanding." Los Angeles Times "Van de W etering still cherishes his Zen experience, and it seems obvious that his eight months in a Kyoto monastery still affect the course of his existence." Boston Globe "A vivid, humourous, and slightly disillusioning account of a Dutch­ man's frustrating struggle toward enlightenment in aJapanese Zen monastery. Insightful, funny." Carl Rogers "Janwillem van de Wetering has presented a reflective, evenly writ­ ten account of his experiences, prudently avoiding the potentially sensational aspects of monastic life. What emerges is a work of nonfiction told through the ingenuous persona of van de Wetering, that is as enjoyable to read as a well-crafted novel." East West Journal

  • Specularum Locales the Merchants' Guildhall Is a Broad, Stout Palace In
    Specularum Locales The Merchants’ Guildhall is a broad, stout palace in the Stronghold district of Specularum. A statue of Zirchev, patron of the Guild, is located in the courtyard. Armed guards (mercenaries not associated with the Veiled Society) bar the access to the Guildhall. Moneychangers’ Guildhall is a square building in rusticated stone with large, arched windows, built to show the power and wealth of the guild. Goldsmiths’ Guildhall, a dwarven-designed palace, is found in the Hill Market district, right out of the walls of Duke Stefan's castle. It is rumoured that underground dungeons hold secret vaults where the gold reserves of the guild are stored. City Jail The jail is a massive, squat sandstone building of the Thyatian period, though built mostly by dwarven masons on a dwarven engineer's plan. The designer, one Bohrur Stonecleaver of Highforge, tried to mix a classical Thyatian architectural style with the typical dwarven construction, resulting in a low, rectangular building topped by an incongruous pediment. Hexagonal turrets flank the front of the building, providing a degree of defence to the entrance gate -- the only weak spot in the otherwise massive outer wall. A small courtyard opens beyond the entrance gate, and gives access to the guard rooms, the kitchens, and the offices. The cells are located on the first story. The dwarves had been commissioned this work by Duke Stefan, when it became clear that the Hightower could not serve as the only prison in the town. Since the Foreign Quarter was experiencing a significant increase in petty crimes -- brawls, pickpocketing, and muggings -- but wasn't as out of control as the Nest, the Karameikan government chose to locate it at there.

  • Junfeng Huang, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: MULTI-DIGIT MANIPULATION OF A CIRCULAR OBJECT Junfeng Huang, Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Directed By: Associate Professor, Jae Kun Shim Department of Kinesiology Multi-digit prehension tasks are commonly encountered in our daily activities. Previous studies investigated behavioral characteristics and neuromuscular mechanisms during manipulation actions. The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate hand-digit control and coordination during multi-digit circular object manipulation. In particular, the dissertation focuses on peak torque, force distribution, safety margin, force regularity, and multi-digit synergy in static and dynamic manipulation. In a series of experiments, subjects grasped a customized circular handle with a precision grip, i.e. without palm contact, and performed isometric maximum/submaximal, or repetitive torque production tasks under visual feedback. The factors studied include wrist position, torque direction, and initial grasping force level in the static tasks, movement frequency and moment of inertia in the dynamic task. The findings are: (1) in the maximum voluntary contraction task, it was found that peak torque in the counterclockwise direction was greater than the clockwise direction; (2) in submaximal tasks, a large initial grasping force slowed down the subsequent torque producing process and resulted in a large safety margin; the thumb and ulnar fingers (ring and little finger) generated more torque in the clockwise direction, while radial fingers (index and middle finger) produced more torque in the counterclockwise direction; the modulation gain between normal force and tangential force was larger in the torque increase direction than in the torque decrease direction; (3) in the repetitive dynamic task, the modulation gain increased with movement frequency and moment of inertia; within-cycle and between-cycle force regularity increased with moment of inertia, but was not affected by movement frequency; multi-digit synergy was found in the isometric task, but not in the repetitive dynamic task.

A Day in the Life of Daoist Monk 1 ADELINE HERROU Abstract This article seeks to give an ethnographical description of the everyday life of an ordinary Daoist monk in China today. As it follows Yang Zhixiang from early morning until night, it deals with his current main occupations—in this case, work on the glyphomancical dissection of the Dao 道 character, fate calculation for young fiancés, preparation for a healing ritual, the ascetic practice of self­ perfecting through refinement, etc. — as well as more basic scenes such as meals, gestures and postures, various domestic tasks, and the reconstruction of the temple. It also relates fragments of his own past life and implicitly outlines the path that led him to the monastery and the vocation that made him become a monk.

    Her fists a blur as they deflect an incoming hail of arrows, a half-elf springs over a barricade and throws herself into the massed ranks of hobgoblins on the other side. She whirls among them, knocking their blows aside and sending them reeling, until at last she stands alone. Taking a deep breath, a human covered in tattoos settles into a battle stance. As the first charging orcs reach him, he exhales and a blast of fire roars from his mouth, engulfing his foes. Moving with the silence of the night, a black-clad halfling steps into a shadow beneath an arch and emerges from another inky shadow on a balcony a stone's throw away. She slides her blade free of its cloth-wrapped scabbard and peers through the open window at the tyrant prince, so vulnerable in the grip of sleep. Whatever their discipline, monks are united in their ability to magically harness the energy that flows in their bodies. Whether channeled as a striking display of combat prowess or a subtler focus of defensive ability and speed, this energy infuses all that a monk does. Monks make careful study of a magical energy that most monastic traditions call ki. This energy is an element of the magic that suffuses the multiverse—specifically, the element that flows through living bodies. Monks harness this power within themselves to create magical effects and exceed their Those who leave their cloisters take their work seriously, bodies' physical capabilities, and some of their special attacks approaching their adventures as personal tests of their can hinder the flow of ki in their opponents.
