  • Umphrey's Mcgee
    Umphrey’s McGee Brendan Bayliss: Guitar, vocals Jake Cinninger: Guitar, vocals Joel Cummins: Keyboard, piano, vocals Andy Farag: Percussion Kris Myers: Drums, vocals Ryan Stasik: Bass After 18-plus years of performing more than 100 concerts annually, releasing nine studio albums and selling more than 4.2 million tracks online, Umphrey’s McGee might be forgiven if they chose to rest on their laurels. But then that wouldn’t be consistent with the work ethic demonstrated by the band, which consistently attempts to raise the bar, setting and achieving new goals since forming on the Notre Dame campus in South Bend, Indiana, in 1997. After releasing their eighth studio album, Similar Skin, the first for their own indie label, Nothing Too Fancy (N2F) Music (distributed by RED), the group continued to push the envelope and test the limits. The London Session, was a dream come true for the members having been recorded at the legendary Studio Two at historic Abbey Road. The stealth recording session yielded 10 tracks in a single day, proving once again, the prolific UM waits for no one. As a follow up to The London Session, the envelope pushing continues with the November 11th release of ZONKEY. Umphrey’s McGee has been arranging and performing original mashups live for over eight years. It was only a matter of when, not if, some of those innovative concoctions would find their way into a studio. An album of 12 unique mashups, conceived and arranged by the band, ZONKEY is as seamless as it bizarre, playful as it is razor sharp.

  • Historic Coast Culture's Farm‐To‐Fork Chef Series
    Historic Coast Culture’s Farm‐to‐Fork Chef Series Presented by the St. Johns Cultural Council Overview Food is a major part of understanding any culture or region. On Florida’s Historic Coast, the culinary scene reflects 450 years of its coastal location and diverse heritage. From the original Spanish settlers, British colonists and the Greeks and Minorcans who emigrated here, visitors can savor a fascinating array of local culinary tastes and farm‐to‐table dishes. Visitors can experience everything from fine dining and quick eats to food festivals, in‐town and farm‐tasting events and culinary classes. Vision Today, farm‐to‐table Culinary is one of Florida’s Historic Coast’s key cultural assets that offers cultural travelers even deeper experiences while they are visiting. To showcase St. Johns County’s farm‐to‐table restaurants and farms, the St. Johns Cultural Council is creating a series of Farm‐to‐Fork Chef Dinners. Each will feature a top local chef from a farm‐to‐table restaurant and a local farm(s). The Chef Series will include both “In‐Town Dinners” at unusual places and “Farm Dinners” in rural settings. These culinary events will also feature local artisans, farm‐to‐table produce, local seafood and/or meats, farm‐to‐table desserts as well as local spirits. Each event will be unique, with a theme chosen by the Chef(s) for the location. These tastings will feel like an intimate dining experience where 30‐40 guests can speak one‐on‐one with the Chef(s) as well as local artisans and farms.

  • Image Reparation Attempts in the Nfl
    SORRY, NOT SORRY: IMAGE REPARATION ATTEMPTS IN THE NFL by Jennifer L. Harker A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF ARTS Major Subject: Communication West Texas A&M University Canyon, Texas May 2015 This research was funded in part by a generous Killgore Research Grant awarded by the West Texas A&M University Graduate School. ABSTRACT This thesis is a rhetorical analysis of current trends in image reparation strategies used by the National Football League (NFL) in an effort to restore goodwill with its stakeholders following perceived transgressions. The 2014/2015 NFL season is discussed and analyzed using the lens of Image Reparation Theory. This research also set out to discover whether or not the NFL’s image repair strategies were rhetorically successful. Findings include the application of three general strategies; corrective action, evasion of responsibility, and reduce offensiveness; and the five sub-strategies of defeasibility, minimization, differentiation, attack the accuser, and bolstering. The implications of this research concludes that in sports image repair, use of the contradictory strategies of corrective action with defeasibility, or corrective action used with differentiation or minimization, is not universally effective. Bolstering likely is the key strategy to apply as it is consistently successful across stakeholders. The importance of strategic and proactive organizational communication cannot be overstated, consistency in player discipline is desperately needed in the NFL, and finally, dissociation of players who have engaged in an extreme transgression is suggested. Keywords: National Football League, image reparation theory, image reparation strategies, apologetic rhetoric, sports apologia, antapologia ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to thank my thesis committee chair, Dr.

    Ehemaliger 49ers, Saints LB Haralson stirbt mit 37 Jahren Parys Haralson, ein ehemaliger Linebacker der San Francisco 49ers und der New Orleans Saints, ist tot. Er wurde lediglich 37 Jahre alt. Die 49ers gaben den Tod von Haralson am Montag bekannt. Einzelheiten wurden nicht genannt. Haralson war auch zwei Jahre lang Direktor für Spielerverpflichtungen in San Francisco. “Parys war ein geliebtes Mitglied unserer Organisation, der das Leben mit einer außergewöhnlichen Menge an Leidenschaft und Freude gelebt hat, während er bei jedem, der ihm begegnet ist, eine unauslöschliche Spur hinterlassen hat”, sagte das Team in einer Erklärung. “Wir sprechen Parys Familie und seinen Angehörigen unser Beileid aus.” Haralson spielte College-Basketball in Tennessee, bevor er von San Francisco in der fünften Runde des NFL Drafts 2006 ausgewählt wurde. Er erzielte 21 Sacks. Haralson bestritt 118 NFL Spiele, darunter 88 Starts. Er kam auf 380 Tackles, 28 Sacks, fünf Fumble- Recoveries, drei erzwungene Fumbles und fünf abgewehrte Pässe.

  • An Intersectional and Dialectical Analysis and Critique of Nba Commissioner Adam Silver and Nfl Commissioner Roger Goodell's Ambivalent Discourses in the New Racism
    AN INTERSECTIONAL AND DIALECTICAL ANALYSIS AND CRITIQUE OF NBA COMMISSIONER ADAM SILVER AND NFL COMMISSIONER ROGER GOODELL'S AMBIVALENT DISCOURSES IN THE NEW RACISM Linsay M. Cramer A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2017 Committee: Alberto González, Committee Co-Chair Lisa Hanasono, Committee Co-Chair Christina Lunceford Graduate Faculty Representative Ellen Gorsevski ii ABSTRACT Alberto González and Lisa Hanasono, Committee Co-Chairs In 2014, the leadership performances of National Basketball Association (NBA) Commissioner Adam Silver and National Football League (NFL) Commissioner Roger Goodell (both men who occupy White positionality), in response to two critical moments in their respective leagues, offered insight into prevailing racial and gender ideologies between United States (U.S.) professional men’s sport, and ultimately, U.S. society. In the NFL, a domestic abuse incident between NFL star Ray Rice and his then-fiancé Janay Palmer, two individuals who do not occupy whiteness, and in the NBA, racist comments made by then-owner of the Los Angeles Clippers Donald Sterling, a man who occupies whiteness, required responses and disciplinary action from the commissioners. Utilizing critical rhetorical analysis as a method of textual analysis (McKerrow, 1989), this dissertation examines and critiques Commissioners Silver and Goodell’s rhetorical performances as leaders in response to these incidents
