    1 Sometimes You Have to Break the Rules Sunday, August 22, 2021, 11:15 a.m., All Saints Church, Pasadena The Rev. Mike Kinman The scholar asked Jesus, “Which commandment is the first of all?” + If you could be at any concert or performance in your lifetime, what would you choose? The Beatles at Shea Stadium? Pink Floyd doing The Wall at the Berlin Wall? Coachella with Beyonce in 2018 The Monterrey Pop Festival with Janis Joplin Woodstock Would it be the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival that’s featured in Summer of Soul - Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sly & the Family Stone, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Mahalia Jackson, B.B. King, The 5th Dimension .. Clara Williams. That would be pretty awesome. But no, for me, I know my answer. For me, it would be July 13, 1985 – Wembley Stadium. Live Aid. 1.9 billion people – 40 percent of the world’s population watching. $127 million raised for famine relief in Ethiopia. And the lineup … a little light on women but still incredible … David Bowie, Elvis Costello, Sting, Elton John, The Who, Paul McCartney, Freddie Mercury and Queen leading all 72,000 people in singing Radio Gaga. 72,000 people clapping their hands over their head in unison. What it would have been like to be there. But for me … I would want to have been there for one moment. Live Aid was a lot of things, but one of them was it was the global coming out party for an Irish band called U2. Maybe you’ve heard of them. And I’d want to be there to witness one moment.

Unauthorised Reproduction Prohibited. 1. The Sadleir-Black Collection It was not long before the lust for Gothic Romance took complete possession of me. Some instinct – for which I can only be thankful – told me not to stray into 'Sensibility', 'Pastoral', or 'Epistolary' novels of the period 1770-1820, but to stick to Gothic Novels and Tales of Terror. Michael Sadleir, XIX Century Fiction It seems appropriate that the Sadleir-Black collection of Gothic fictions, a genre peppered with illicit passions, should be described by its progenitor as the fruit of lust. Michael Sadleir (1888-1957), the person who cultivated this passion, was a noted bibliographer, book collector, publisher and creative writer. Educated at Rugby and Balliol College, Oxford, Sadleir joined the office of the publishers Constable and Company in 1912, becoming Director in 1920. He published seven reasonably successful novels; important biographical studies of Trollope, Edward and Rosina Bulwer, and Lady Blessington; and a number of ground-breaking bibliographical works, most significantly Excursions in Victorian Bibliography (1922) and XIX Century Fiction (1951).

David Bowie’s urban landscapes and nightscapes: A reading of the Bowiean text 1 David Bowie’s urban landscapes and nightscapes: A reading of the Bowiean text Jean Du Verger “The Word is devided into units which be all in one piece and should be so taken, but the pieces can be had in any order being tied up back and forth, in and out fore and aft like an innaresting sex arrangement. This book spill off the page in all directions, kaleidoscope of vistas, medley of tunes and street noises […]” William Burroughs, The Naked Lunch, 1959. Introduction 1 The urban landscape occupies a specific position in Bowie’s works. His lyrics are fraught with references to “city landscape[s]”5 and urban nightscapes. The metropolis provides not only the object of a diegetic and spectatorial gaze but it also enables the author to further a discourse on his own inner fragmented self as the nexus, lyrics— music—city, offers an extremely rich avenue for investigating and addressing key issues such as alienation, loneliness, nostalgia and death in a postmodern cultural context.

Ask them what this person is feeling. Th en, ask students how they know. Explain to students that they used a visual clue – a facial expression – to infer what the person was feeling. Can students infer why the person in the photo might be feeling this way? Explain to students that Inferring is another key reading strategy. Inferring means using facts – the things we see and observe – to make an interpretation. Use the Inferring Student Handout (p. 4) to introduce students to this strategy. To reinforce the concept of inferring, involve the class in a game. First, brainstorm with students a list of emotions; record these on chart paper for everyone to refer to. Th en, ask one student to leave the room. With the class, choose one emotion. Invite the absent student back into the room. Have the other students help him or her 'infer' the chosen emotion by giving clues. Clues must begin with "I felt this way when..." For example, if the emotion is 'jealous', the clue given could be "I felt this way when my baby sister was born and everyone paid attention to her instead of to me." When the emotion has been correctly inferred, invite a new student to leave the room and repeat the game.

As the Commission recognized in the Notice, the best way to help the largest number of AM stations to quickly and efficiently improve their service is to open such an AM-only window. Any other approach will make it extremely difficult, if not impossible, for AM stations, to obtain the translators they urgently need to remain competitive and provide our communities with the service they deserve.
