  • The Life of George Brooks Artist in Stone by Juanita Brooks 1965
    The Life of George Brooks Artist in Stone by Juanita Brooks 1965 Chapter 1 BACKGROUND AND EARLY LIFE For ages the rocky promitory on the north extremity of Wales has jutted out into the sea, to be known by the early inhabitants of the area as “The Point of Ayr.” Surrounded on three sides by water, with a low, gravelly beach at low tide, it became inundated up to several feet at high tide, and a boiling, foaming torrent in storms. It was such a hazard to seafaring men that by 1700 it was marked with a small lighthouse, erected for and supported by the merchants of Chester, far down at the end of the bay, As the city of Liverpool grew in importance, this danger spot became their concern also, for their commerce was constantly threatened by the submerged rocks. During the summer of 1963, the author, her husband, William Brooks, and her daughter, Mrs. Thales A. Derrick, visited the lighthouse here at the point of Ayr and became acquainted with a man who gave them the address of the present owner of the property, Mr. H. F. Lewis. In a letter dated August 27, 1963, he said: “. The Elder Brethren of Trinity House, who did not like privately owned lighthouses, heard of the defaulting of the Port of Chester Authority & petitioned the King in 1815 to have the jurisdiction of the L. H. Placed under their auspices. This was granted by King George III. I have this document as the first of the L. H. Deeds . “Originally the keeper lived ashore at the house still known as the Lighthouse cottage.

  • Grime: Criminal Subculture Or Public Counterculture?
    CMC0010.1177/1741659018784111Crime, Media, CultureFatsis 784111research-article2018 Article Crime Media Culture 1 –15 Grime: Criminal subculture © The Author(s) 2018 Reprints and permissions: or public counterculture? A sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav https://doi.org/10.1177/1741659018784111DOI: 10.1177/1741659018784111 critical investigation into the journals.sagepub.com/home/cmc criminalization of Black musical subcultures in the UK Lambros Fatsis University of Southampton, UK Abstract This article sets out to (re-)introduce Black urban musical subcultures as valuable forms of creativity and public expression in an attempt to resist, criticize and expose their criminalization by the London Metropolitan Police. Focusing primarily on grime, a host of unfair and illegitimate practices adopted by the London Metropolitan Police will be discussed. This will demonstrate how the routine monitoring, surveillance and curtailment of Black people’s public identity (re)produces stereotypical associations of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) groups with violent, criminal and problematic behaviour. In order to challenge openly discriminatory attitudes towards Black urban cultural forms by the police, a counterargument which calls for their understanding as viable sources of positive and constructive public engagement will be offered. Keywords Cultural criminology, grime, policing, race and crime, youth subcultures Hip hop and rap1 have historically been met with a considerable degree of suspicion in the US (Baker, 1995; Bridgewater et al., 2015; Cummings, 2012; Kubrin, 2005; Kubrin and Nielson, 2014; Quinn, 2005; Rose, 1994; Tatum, 1999), often seen as outward manifestations of an ‘out- law culture’ (hooks, 1994) that is perceived as dangerous, if not outrightly criminal. In the UK, the situation has not been radically different, especially in recent years, although scant attention has been afforded to the issue by the relevant literature, notable exceptions notwithstanding (Barron, 2013; Bramwell, 2015a; Ilan, 2012, 2014; Talbot, 2011).

He was holding his arms out on either side for balance as he stepped lightly along one of the rails, like someone walking on a tightrope without a net and with miles and miles of nothing underneath him. He was without a shirt and his back was covered in mud. I could barely make out the scar on his left shoulder, but noticed right away that his hands had been painted red. The air was unsettled with yellow dust so that it seemed like there were a thousand tiny fireflies rising up slowly from the ground all around us. I could hear the sirens from far off in the distance as they made their way through town, and I called out to him.

  • Teacher Guide - Music Magazine Resources
    Teacher Guide - Music Magazine Resources Magazine Mastheads An interactive activity which introduces students to some of the more well-known mastheads from music magazines. Some words are in bold to draw the students’ attention and they can begin compiling a list of media terminology. Students have to match up the mastheads with their meanings, they do this by dragging and dropping the boxes around the screen. When complete, there is a question about the colour scheme of the mastheads. Responses the students may come up with are: • Connotations of red – warning, danger, love, power, strength, masculine • They may say red is a powerful colour suggesting dominance or importance • They may suggest that the red and white are highly contrasting so allow the masthead to stand out on newsstands. Magazine Front Covers Labelling activities will help the students familiarise themselves with the terminology used to talk about magazines. This task will also encourage them to begin to understand what the code and conventions are of the genre.

  • The Half-Mind Hymnal
    THE HALF-MIND HYMNAL A Songbook for Hash House Harriers "Shocking! Disgusting! Delightful!" Compiled by Flying Booger December 2014 Edition Flying Booger’s Half-Mind Hymnal The Half-Mind Hymnal is a songbook for Hash House Harriers. Hash House Harriers, like rugby players, sing offensive songs – consider yourself warned! This songbook is a work in progress. I compiled my first hashing songbook in 1993. It contained about 200 songs. Shortly afterward I met famed Colorado hasher and songmaster Zippy. In 1994 we collaborated on a 400-song hymnal, introducing it at InterHash in Rotorua, New Zealand. Zippy and I continued to update the hymnal until his death in 2003; since then I have continued to add new material. The current edition of the Half- Mind Hymnal contains more than 800 songs, poems, and toasts. The Half-Mind Hymnal is dedicated to hashers and hashing. Additional thanks to Bollox, Beaver Bam Bam Balls, Ian Cumming, Sauer Krotch, Dum BUF, Mu-Sick, Catwoman, Neptunus, Sodbuster, Smoking Wiener, and three non-hashers: Derek Cashman, Ed Cray, and John Patrick. Thanks also to the authors of hash songbooks and to the many individual hashers who contributed (and continue to contribute) songs to this collection. Finally, thanks to the pilots of the USAF and NATO fighter squadrons in the Second Allied Tactical Air Force who started me singing and taught me the basic repertoire. Without their inspiration this songbook wouldn't exist. This edition, thanks to the efforts of Lone Wanker, is hyperlinked: click on a song category or the title of an individual song in the table of contents and you will be gently wafted, as if on the wings of hash angel Zippy, directly to where you wanted to go.

    1 Houston Jewish History Archive Interviewee: Joe Buchanan Interviewers: Joshua Furman Date: May 11, 2020 PREFACE: This is an oral history with Joe Buchanan, a Jewish country musician who writes and performs songs about Judaism. Buchanan was born in Clear Lake, Texas and grew up in Southeast Texas. In this interview Buchanan describes his conversion to Judaism as an adult, after struggling with searching for God in Christianity since his childhood. He describes the process of conversion and his relationship with Rabbi Federow of Congregation Shaar Hashalom in Houston. Buchanan further describes his musical influences, the process of creating his musical and educational Shabbat offerings, and how he feels representing Jewish Texans. Over the course of the interview, Buchanan performs four songs. This interview was captured via Zoom due to the COVID-19 health crisis, and Buchanan describes the effect that COVID-19 has had on his plans as a traveling performer and how he has adapted to serve the Jewish community virtually. Interview Transcript FURMAN: Hi, my name is Joshua Furman. I’m the curator of the Houston Jewish History Archive at Rice University, and I’m so excited to be interviewing Joe Buchanan today.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Interpreting and Treating Autism in Javanese Indonesia A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance by Anne Currier Tucker 2013 © Copyright by Anne Currier Tucker 2013! ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Interpreting and Treating Autism in Javanese Indonesia by Anne Currier Tucker Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Irma Dosamantes-Beaudry and Professor Michael Owen Jones, Co-chairs Autism is a complex developmental disorder affecting communication, social interaction, and behavior. As interest in this disorder has increased worldwide, clinical and social science researchers have begun to ponder how autism might be configured and understood in different parts of the world. There may be as many as one million people with autism in Indonesia, yet little information is available regarding the implications for affected individuals, families, and communities. My dissertation takes a sociocultural perspective in addressing how autism is recognized, interpreted, and responded to in Javanese Indonesia. Based on 12 months of multi- sited ethnographic fieldwork in Yogykarta and Jakarta, I have a) documented how autism is being introduced to and taken up by Javanese families, b) addressed the benefits and challenges of using autism as an interpretive framework for developmental difference, and c) considered the reactions to and implications for some of the interventions that have been attempted thus far. ii In doing so I make a number of key observations and claims. First, Javanese reactions to individuals with autism are deeply influenced by local models of personhood and sociality as well as socio-economic status.
