Ira Adler is on the way to meet his former lover and mastermind criminal Cain Goddard when an explosion turns his life upside down. Someone had planted a bomb in Goddard's house and Ira finds himself suddenly rich and grieving more than he would've imagined. Soon, he finds out via a broken nose that the case is more dangerous than expected, but he can't help but dig deeper in order to find out the who and why. He asks his friend Andrews St. Andrew, a detective, for help. His oldest friend, Doctor Lazarus thinks a change of scenery would do Ira good and urges him to go together with his family to America where his wife's family lives. Unnecessary to say that, when Ira decides his best friend is right and agrees to accompany them to America, trouble is a constant for the party and Ira always seems to be right in the middle of it. And, as coincidence will, the solution of the case Ira is distancing himself from seems to be thousands of miles away from London and every mile added brings him closer to finding out what happened. I got this book as a free read from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. In the beginning I didn't even realise that there were two volumes previous to Fool's Gold (which is kind of stupid considering that it is written on the cover ) and the author does a great job at making you not notice that fact. Honestly, I'm a bit glad that I didn't read the previous books because even though in Fool's Gold Ira and Goddard aren't together I shipped them with all my heart and if I had read a book where they actually were together I probably couldn't bear to read about Ira with someone else. Goddard reminded me of Moriarty and the whole book I kind of just waited for him to return from the dead. Which he did. Ira Adler is a likable character and Faraday's writing lets you understand every decision he makes. There is neither a 'omg what is he doing?! ' moment nor a scene where her characters are so perfect that you doubt there existence (haha, pun intended). They are quite human and sometimes they make shitty human decisions or do foolish things, but that's what makes them real . Even if you haven't read the first two books you can read this one without getting confused during some events because you lack background knowledge. So I can recommend this to anyone who wants the faint smell of an interesting whodunit, the taste of adventuring through a new country (at least from Ira's POV) and the overall theme of finding a new path in ones life. Release Day Review: Fool’s Gold (Ira Adler: Book Three) by Jess Faraday. Blurb : For once, Ira Adler has it easy. He has money in his pocket, a comfortable arrangement with an undemanding young man, and no one’s punched, chased, or shot at him in years. Suddenly, an explosion turns everything upside down. Eager to leave London, Ira accompanies his friends to America to settle a family matter. But though a handsome lawman and a trip aboard a luxurious ocean liner provide welcome distraction, Ira soon finds himself embroiled in a plot that stretches from London’s back alleys to the dusty dirt roads of California. Before he knows it, Ira is up to his neck in train robbers, rattlesnakes, unscrupulous cattle kings, and persistent young women driven to frenzy by his exotic accent. Just when he’s ready to flee back to Britain, Ira gets a fistful of second chances. But London is calling. Will Ira answer? Or will he embrace a new life abroad? Review : Jess Faraday’s Fool’s Gold could have been subtitled “: Or The Misadventures of Ira Adler”. The series itself is the evolution of a character who’s become so beloved—all the characters, really—that revisiting him book after book, then waiting for the next adventure to begin, is sweet torture. The Ira Adler series is a Pygmalion-esque story of evolution. From street whore to respectable gentleman, Ira is the beneficiary of a dangerous benefactor’s tutelage, becomes the object of that man’s obsession, and finally… Well, I think we may still be working on the finally part as the author leads us through a tangled web of emotions—hate, love, grief, regret, making peace with the past—there is still so much more for Mr. Adler to experience, and even as he’s mourned for and said his goodbyes to the past, he may have found a future in Marshal Calvin Sutter, someone to open up a whole new world of possibilities for Ira. The man himself felt somewhat rudderless and off course in Fool’s Gold as he battles jealousy and confusion; his life rocked off its foundation, which leaves him homeless and unsure; but he’s set a new course for his life. It only remains to be seen, now, where it will take him. As the saying goes, life is a journey, not a destination , and Ira Adler is taking us on quite the trek through Victorian London and on to the American West. He becomes embroiled in a crime and mystery not of his own making (as always seems the case with our hero) that threatens his life nonetheless: framed for a robbery at sea, getting held up at gunpoint on a train bound across the barren prairies of the US, a near miss with a buffalo stampede; these are just a few of the various and sundry other pitfalls he experiences in Fool’s Gold until, finally, he finds himself at a crossroads between England and America, where he sees that America, in her relative infancy, holds the possibility of new beginnings. As this journey sweeps Ira along in its wake, he becomes as much a passenger in the adventure as we are, and just when you wonder what else could possibly go wrong for him, something does. Fool’s Gold is non-stop action, start to finish, not to mention this installment is not too terribly kind to the heart or tear ducts. As many things as go wrong for Ira, though, some things go right as well, and while they might not have gone right the way I want to see them go, that’s okay. An occasional cry never hurt anyone, now, did it? Which leads us to Cain Goddard, scholar and criminal, also known as the dreaded Duke of Dorset. Goddard, the man who, for some unknown reason, the author perhaps feels should be beyond our contempt, but isn’t. I don’t think I’ve ever loved a man of such ill repute more, and the source of all my tears? Yes. Cain Goddard. What’s happened in the evolution of these books is nothing less than superb, nothing less than heartbreaking, and while Ira’s journey isn’t over, things have most certainly changed course. And that’s all I’m going to say about that, because to say more would be unfair to those of you who want to experience every single nuance of these books for yourselves. Jess Faraday’s storytelling skills are flawless. From creating rich and multi-layered characters to texturing each layer of plot so it grounds the reader in the time and place of the novels, these books are not a lesson in Victorian Era or Old West history. They are each detailed yet subtle, every scene perfection, written with a finesse that draws you into the story and captivates and captures the imagination. There’s a reason The Affair of the Porcelain Dog and Turnbull House both made my list of their respective years’ Best Books. Fool’s Gold will make it a three-peat in 2015. This series is full-immersion historical fiction. In a word: Outstanding. Reviews by Amos Lassen. Books, Movies and Judaica and Random Thoughts About Whatever. “Fool’s Gold” by Jess Faraday— Taking it Easy? Faraday, Jess. “Fool’s Gold”, (Ira Adler #3), Bold Strokes Books, 2015. Taking it Easy?

    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

Please bear in mind that you are reading the spoken word rather than the written word. Oral History Number: 473-009 Interviewee: John Fleming Interviewer: Breanna McCabe Date of Interview: November 2, 2019 Project: Missoula Music History Oral History Project Breanna McCabe: John, I’m just gonna have you start by saying and spelling your first and last name. John Fleming: John Fleming, J-o-h-n F-l-e-m-i-n-g. BM: We are rolling. Hello, I’m Breanna McCabe. It's Saturday, November 2, 2019, and with me here at the Mansfield Library on the University of Montana campus is John Fleming. John is the proprietor of Ear Candy Music, which opened September 21, 1997, and is now located at 624 South Higgins Avenue here in Missoula. John, thanks so much for being here. JF: You're welcome. BM: Please introduce yourself and share a little bit about your background. JF: Well, my name is John Fleming. I moved to Missoula in 1991 to attend grad school, and I got my ABT degree, all but the thesis, so didn't quite get there. Then kicked around for a bit, got a job at Rockin’ Rudy’s, and then a friend approached me about opening our own store. Figured if I didn't take the chance, then it would never happen. So, I sold my 1958 Chrysler Windsor and used that money to purchase some product and liquidated my personal record collection—well, not entirely, but a lot of them—and that was my initial inventory.

    DREAM SPINNER By Kristen Ashley Teaser Chapters Prologue Right at Him Hattie It happened on the opening night of the Revue. I knew it when I finished my dance. And I looked for him. They were there, all the guys (and Evie) to cheer us on. To support us. But when my dance was done, I didn’t look to my friend Evie. I didn’t look to Lottie’s man (and my friend) Mo. I didn’t look to Evie’s guy (and also my friend) Mag. I further didn’t look to Ryn’s fella (and yes, my friend too) Boone. Or Auggie, who should be Pepper’s, but he was not. I looked right at him. Right at him. At Axl. And he was looking at me. Of course, I’d just been dancing. But it was more. Because I’d picked that song. And it became even more when my eyes went right to his. I saw how his face changed when I did this, and I didn’t know him all that well, but I still read it. Page 1 Dream Spinner Teaser Chapters ©2021 Kristen Ashley Not to be distrubuted or reproduced without permission I knew exactly what it meant, the way he was looking at me, and the fact, after I’d finished dancing to that song, I’d looked right at him. And what it meant was… I was in trouble. Chapter One Ivan the Terrible Hattie “It went well.” “Tens of thousands of dollars on teachers, leotards, pointe shoes, payin’ for gas to drive you to class, recitals, competitions, and you’re sittin’ here tryin’ to convince me all that was worth it seein’ as you got the big promotion from being a stripper to being a burlesque dancer.” “It’s not burlesque exactly.
