  • 2010 Metolius Climbing 2
    2010 METOLIUS CLIMBING 2 It’s shocking to think that it’s been twenty-five years since we cranked up the Metolius Climbing machine, and 2010 marks our 25th consecutive year in business! Wow! Getting our start in Doug Phillips’ tiny garage near the headwaters of the Metolius River (from where we take our name), none of us could have envisioned where climbing would be in 25 years or that we would even still be in the business of making climbing gear. In the 1980s, the choices one had for climbing equipment were fairly limited & much of the gear then was un-tested, uncomfortable, inadequate or unavailable. Many solved this problem by making their own equipment, the Metolius crew included. 3 (1) Smith Rock, Oregon ~ 1985 Mad cranker Kim Carrigan seen here making Much has changed in the last 2 ½ decades since we rolled out our first products. The expansion we’ve seen has been mind-blowing the 2nd ascent of Latest Rage. Joined by fellow Aussie Geoff Wiegand & the British hardman Jonny Woodward, this was one of the first international crews to arrive at Smith and tear the and what a journey it’s been. The climbing life is so full of rich and rewarding experiences that it really becomes the perfect place up. The lads made many early repeats in the dihedrals that year. These were the days metaphor for life, with its triumphs and tragedies, hard-fought battles, whether won or lost, and continuous learning and growing. when 5.12 was considered cutting edge and many of these routes were projected and a few of Over time, we’ve come to figure out what our mission is and how we fit into the big picture.

PARSON DR. KRISTEN MCCAULIFF - ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA MAY 2017 2 ABSTRACT THESIS: “I Know That We the New Slaves”: An Illusion of Life Analysis of Kanye West’s Yeezus. STUDENT: Margaret Parson DEGREE: Master of Arts COLLEGE: College of Communication Information and Media DATE: May 2017 PAGES: 108 This work utilizes an Illusion of Life method, developed by Sellnow and Sellnow (2001) to analyze the 2013 album Yeezus by Kanye West. Through analyzing the lyrics of the album, several major arguments are made. First, Kanye West’s album Yeezus creates a new ethos to describe what it means to be a Black man in the United States. Additionally, West discusses race when looking at Black history as the foundation for this new ethos, through examples such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Nina Simone’s rhetoric, references to racist cartoons and movies, and discussion of historical events such as apartheid. West also depicts race through lyrics about the imagined Black male experience in terms of education and capitalism. Second, the score of the album is ultimately categorized and charted according to the structures proposed by Sellnow and Sellnow (2001). Ultimately, I argue that Yeezus presents several unique sounds and emotions, as well as perceptions on Black life in America. 3 Table of Contents Chapter One

  • The Effects of Specific Transfer Activities on Fifth Grade
    THE EFFECTS OF SPECIFIC TRANSFER ACTIVITIES ON FIFTH GRADE ORCHESTRA AND BAND STUDENTS’ RHYTHMIC PERFORMANCE DISSERTATION Presented In Partial Fulfillment Of The Requirements For The Degree Doctor Of Philosophy In The Graduate School Of The Ohio State University By Andrea Olijnek Scheuzger, B.S., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Robert Gillespie, Adviser Approved by Dr. Jere Forsythe Dr. John Woods _____________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Music ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of specific transfer instruction on the rhythmic performance abilities of beginning instrumental students. The investigation examined the effectiveness of a series of instructional steps designed to transfer the application of skills from classroom rhythm activities to the performance of those rhythms on an instrument. Fifth grade students enrolled in the band or orchestra programs of the Hastings Public Schools participated in the study. The students received a total of twelve, six-minute rhythm sessions over twelve weeks, for a total of 72 minutes of instruction. Members of the treatment group received instruction that progressed from rhythmic activities to performance on an instrument. Members of the control group received identical instruction in rhythmic activities without instruments. Students’ rhythmic accuracy was assessed through a pretest and identical posttest, which consisted of eleven four-measure etudes. Subjects were audio-recorded as they performed the etudes on their orchestra or band instruments. Students in both groups scored significantly better on single-pitched than on multiple-pitched etudes. Both groups, however, made significantly greater pretest to posttest gains on multiple-pitched versus single pitched etudes.

The Effects of Sight Word Instruction on Students' Reading Abilities Abstract This action research paper focused on the question “how does effective sight word instruction impact students’ reading abilities?” Effective sight word instruction will improve a student’s overall reading abilities. Data was collected through daily observation of students and recorded notes, formal and informal interviews, and student work samples. After analyzing the data, three major themes were found: sight word instruction improved students’ overall reading abilities, sight word instruction improved students’ confidence in eading,r and sight word instruction alone is not beneficial without other literacy instruction. The implications of this study suggest that all elementary teachers need to provide students with a literacy rich environment, sight word instruction, and daily practice through the use of literacy centers and activities.
