    FAR HILLS A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Jennifer C. Dunning August 2006 This dissertation entitled FAR HILLS by JENNIFER C. DUNNING has been approved for the Department of English and the College of Arts and Sciences by Darrell K. Spencer Professor of English Benjamin M. Ogles Dean, College of Arts and Sciences Abstract DUNNING, JENNIFER C., Ph.D., August 2006, English FAR HILLS (210 pp.) Director of Thesis: Darrell K. Spencer This dissertation consists of a collection of short stories, many of which foreground the relationship of character to place. A number of the stories are set in Ellisville, Ohio, a fictional town with similarities to Athens and surrounding southeast Ohio towns. The critical introduction explores the use of omniscient narration in contemporary short fiction. Drawing on the ideas of Walter Benjamin, from his essay “The Storyteller,” the introduction considers how the presence of the storyteller’s voice in fiction might shape narrative. Approved: Darrell K. Spencer Professor of English Acknowledgments I would like to thank the Ohio University English Department for the opportunity to spend four years thinking about writing, teaching, and literature. I would especially like to thank Darrell Spencer, Joan Connor, and David Lazar—Darrell, for sharing with me his ideas about stories, for giving me new ways to think about stories; Joan, for her keen insights into story architecture; David, for the gift of the essay. I am grateful to all those people in Ellisville who shared their lives with me (and whose mailing addresses might be Athens, Amesville, Albany, Shade, Ohio) and to the wildflowers and trees and rocks and creatures of southeastern Ohio which, like Ginnie, I can’t yet imagine not living among.

  • UFW DOCUMENTATION PROJECT ONLINE DISCUSSION June 2004
    UFW DOCUMENTATION PROJECT ONLINE DISCUSSION June 2004 Pilar (Pamela) Pederson, 6/1/04 RE: Volunteerism vs. Staff Salaries OK. I'm finally weighing in on this discussion. I am now 50. My years with the Farmworkers were from ages 17 - 19(1971-1973). I was “ in charge" of the Coachella hiring hall the summer of 1973 - the year that the Teamsters invaded. I am still connected with the Mexican people and am listening avidly to this conversation. I find much of what I read surprising but not shocking. Like all of us, I have spent much time examining these experiences since I left. As young and as middle class as I was, the pay rate for volunteers fit my need to serve, and if I wanted something more I could get it from home. I assumed & observed that folks with higher needs (families, attorneys, leadership) got those needs taken care of in the most modest sense of that word. I worked mostly in the field offices and felt largely unaffected by what went on in La Paz. I see great value in this conversation. I hear hard questions being asked and little which sounds derogatory or disloyal to the ideals we were working for. I hear sadness and disappointment that the work wasn't completed and gratitude to have learned from such great and inspirational leaders. Two topics draw me into this conversation: the first is the issue of seniority and hiring. Farm workers travel in units, mostly comprised of families. They need to go to work with those they are hooked up with; to get a ride in a car, or to be part of their functional group.

  • TROMMELVLIES 25: Vlees En Aardappelen Met Mosterd
    TROMMELVLIES 25: Vlees en aardappelen met mosterd Nee, even geen lijstjes van mijn kant, maar wel de Mooiste Songtitel Van Het Jaar: Drowned my sorrows (but they sure learned how to swim) . Wat een vernuft! De man die ons dit emotioneel epistel tegemoet loeit is het gedreven bluesbeest Ian Siegal. Wat een ontdekking! Wat een kerel! Wat een strot! Wat een verdriet… Zijn Meat & Potatoes staat onbetwist in mijn jaarlijstje van 2005 (nee, beloofd is beloofd, ik zal de andere negen nu niet opsommen), hoewel er – om het mij moeilijk te maken – vorig jaar wel erg veel moois is uitgekomen. Daarnaast is het natuurlijk ook lekker om van tijd tot tijd eens een oude knar uit de kast te trekken. In mijn heilig tabernakel der belegen geluidsdragers (mijn overvolle elpeekast dus) worden de elpees van Stevie Wonder geboekensteund door Wizzard aan de linkerkant, en rechts Roy Wood. Ik ga er voor het gemak even van uit dat iedereen wel weet dat Wizzard de jaren 70 glamrockband van Wood was, na The Move en Electric Light Orchestra. Toch? Solo heb ik het over zijn meesterwerk Boulders , en dan moet je ongeveer denken aan Brian Wilson meets Phil Spector ontmoet Sgt. Pepper . Alles-zelf-bespeler-en-zinger. Goedkope import, met zo’n fijne hardkartonnen hoes, met afgeknipte hoek. Ooit heb ik zijn elpee Mustard niét gekocht, vanwege de wanstaltig getekende, foeilelijke hoes. Maar nu, alsnog vers op cd, is de afbeelding draaglijk – want een stuk kleiner. Waar gaan we heen met dit verhaal, Theo? Naar Jonathan Ross’ kerstshow op de BBC, met de Top 3 Beste Kerstsingles Ooit: op drie Wizzard, Slade twee, en bovenaan de dubbele Mac van Kirsty MacColl en The Pogues.

  • United Artists Consolidated Series
    United Artists Consolidated Series In 1972, United Artists changed their catalog numbering system to one consolidated system that included all the United Artists series and also the labels they owned or distributed. This consolidated series continued until the label was discontinued in 1981. The first two letters in the catalog number indicated the label (UA=United Artists, PP=Poppy, etc.) , followed by “LA”which designated an LP, followed by the catalog sequence number, with a letter suffix that was a pricing code. In 1979, when UA was sold to Capitol, the catalog numbers began reflecting the Capitol coding sequence (LT-, LOO-, etc.). Because the albums all used “LA”in the catalog number (until 1979), this consolidated series is often referred to as the “LA series.” United Artists “LA”Consolidated Series United Artists UA-LA-001-F - Doremi Fasol Latido - Hawkwind [1972] Brainstorm/Space In Deep/One Change//Lord of Light/Down Through The Night/Time We Left This World Today/The Watcher 002 Poppy PP-LA-003-F - Amanda - Amanda Tree [1972] Reissue of PYS 5707?
