Among his most siginificant innovations was the development of a series of functions for use in astronomical calculations that now bear hisname. For ten pOints, who was this Prussian astronomer, who in 1838, while observing the star 61 Cygni became the first man to successfully measure the parallax of a star? ANS: Friedrich Bessell 2. Nicknamed "Bunny," five years after graduating from Princeton, he became editor of "Vanity Fair" magazine. A writer of broad interests, his books include the novel "I Thought of Daisy", the sociological study "Red, Black, Blond, and Olive", and a study of symbolism, "Axel's Castle". For ten pOints, name this man who translated the Dead Sea Scrolls and examined European radicalism in "To the Finland Station." ANS: Edmund Wilson 3. The son of a fireman, he attended night school in his late teens to learn to read so that he could study the work of James Watt. The work of Richard Trevithick served as the building blocks for this man's accomplishments, much as the work of John Fitch was followed by that of Robert Fulton. For ten pOints, who was this inventor, who in 1830 opened between Liverpool and Manchester the first railroad using steam powered locomotives? ANS: George Stephenson 4. Troubled with chronic poor health throughout his life, he habitually worked while staying in bed. A devout Catholic due to his Jesuit education, upon hearing of the condemnation of Galileo by the church, he abandoned a book supporting the Copernican system.

    Ritual in the “Church of Baseball”: Suppressing the Discourse of Democracy After 9/11 Michael L

    Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies Vol. 2, No. 2, June 2005, pp. 107–129 Ritual in the “Church of Baseball”: Suppressing the Discourse of Democracy after 9/11 Michael L. Butterworth Baseball was among the most prominent American institutions to respond to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Tributes at ballparks across the country promised comfort to millions in shock but soon developed into rituals of victimization that affirmed the Bush administration’s politics of war, discouraged the expression of dissenting opinions, and burdened the nation with yet another disincentive to reflect constructively on its response to terrorism. This essay views the aftermath of 9/11 as a quasi-religious social drama in which ballpark tributes became a ritualized vehicle for a belligerent patriotism that sought unity at the expense of democratic discourse. Keywords: Baseball; Democracy; Patriotism; War on Terrorism; Rituals of Victimization On October 12, 2003, the Chicago Cubs and Florida Marlins played in the fifth game of baseball’s National League Championship Series. Thousands of Chicago fans, hoping to see their team end a 58-year World Series drought, made their way to Miami’s Pro Player Stadium and provided loyal and raucous support for the visiting Cubs. When the game reached the seventh-inning stretch, Cubs fans enthusiastically began singing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame,” but they were quickly silenced by the stadium’s public address system and the remaining fans who belted out “God Bless America” instead. One fan in a Cubs hat and jersey lamented, “Come on, it’s a baseball game!” Only after the public display of patriotism had subsided were Cubs fans able to perform their song.1 Michael L.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.
  • Baseball™S Immortal Red Stockings

    Baseball™S Immortal Red Stockings

    Baseball's Immortal Red Stockings by LEE ALLEN The origin of baseball as an amateur endeavor is shrouded in doubt. It was, originally, a game for boys, and grew up without printed rules or documentary evidence of any kind as to its earli- est days. But the origin of professional baseball is undisputed: The first entirely professional team was supplied by the Cincinnati Red Stockings of 1869, a club that played from Maine to Cali- fornia wherever opposition could be found. The Red Stockings engaged in sixty-five games without once losing, traveled nearly twelve thousand miles by rail and boat, appeared before more than two hundred thousand spectators, and scored 2,395 runs to 575 for their opponents. The importance of the Red Stockings to baseball history does not lie in their extraordinary achievement on the field, impressive though that was. Their contribution consisted of establishing the fact that baseball could succeed on a professional basis. They drew so much attention to the game that clubs began to spring up in their wake as indiscriminately as dandelions. These clubs grew so strong that by 1871 they were able to form baseball's first major league, The National Association of Professional Baseball Players, forerunner of the National League of which Cincinnati is still a member. The first baseball club of any kind was organized in Cincinnati in 1860 by Matthew M. Yorston, a resident of the city. He made by hand the baseballs that were used, and the team played informally at various sites in the downtown area: at the foot of Eighth Street, near the present location of the Crane & Breed Manufacturing Company; at the Orphan Asylum lot on Elm Street, where Music Hall now stands; on the old potter's field that is now Lincoln Park; and eventually in the Millcreek bottoms, where the Red Stockings were at home and where the Union Terminal was later built.

    September 27, 2011 Daily Herald the Movie 'Moneyball' Has

    September 27, 2011 Daily Herald The movie ‘Moneyball’ has Cubs connections By: Bruce Miles SAN DIEGO — Had a chance to see the movie “Moneyball” the other day. For my money, so to speak, it was one of those rare instances where the movie was better than the book, and the book was pretty darn good. Without going all movie reviewer on you, I thought the movie did a much better job of humanizing Oakland Athletics GM Billy Beane better than the book. I guess Brad Pitt will do that. There are Cubs connections to the movie, and I had a chance to talk with some of them this evening here at Petco Park. And as it always goes with these things, you find out that “based on a true story” means just that. There is definitely some fudging with the “truth.” Take Cubs first baseman Carlos Pena, for instance. In the movie, Beane tells his assistant to give the word to Pena that he had been traded to Detroit. “Movies are not always exact — I was in Triple-A,” Pena said. “It’s a little bit of an adaptation. I came off the field in Sacramento. My manager at Sacramento said, ‘Hey, Carlos, stay put because I think something’s going on.’ That’s the way it went down.” The movie had Beane moving Pena because he wanted to get playing time at first base for Scott Hatteberg, a “Moneyball” example of an undervalued player who could be had inexpensively and still produce. Along those lines, “Moneyball” — the book and the movie — is not “about on-base percentage.” Sure, players with high OBPs were favored by the “Moneyball” set, but “Moneyball” really is about identifying inefficiencies in the marketplace and exploiting them.
