Geography & Geology The human geography and the geology of the Catskill Mountains are among the things that make the region unique within New York State. Geography and geology allow us to compare our place in the world with all others, and teach people about the nature of their world and their place in it. Translated, geography means a description of the Earth (geo means Earth, and graphia means description). Geology, similarly, is the study of the Earth (again, geo means Earth, and ology is the study of). The relationship between geography and geology is an easy one

Die offizielle Produktion von Andrew Lloyd Webber und Tim Rice vom 02. März bis 24. April 2016 auf Tour durch Deutschland sowie erstmals in der Schweiz Besetzung mit Stars aus dem Londoner West End steht fest Eine himmlische Besetzung für Jesus Christ Superstar, das verspricht die offizielle Produktion von Andrew Lloyd Webber und Tim Rice vom 02. März bis 24. April 2016 auf ihrer Tour durch Deutschland und die Schweiz. Mit spektakulären Bildern, einer fulminanten Live-Band und herausragenden Darstellern aus dem Londoner West End markiert die opulente Inszenierung einen neuen Glanzpunkt in der langen Erfolgsgeschichte von Jesus Christ Superstar. Sein charismatisches Spiel und seine vielseitige Stimme rissen schon bei der Deutschlandpremiere 2015 das Publikum hin: Glenn Carter spielte Jesus Christ am Broadway, am Londoner West End und war auch bei der jüngsten DVD-Aufzeichnung in der Rolle des Jesus zu erleben. Sein Erfolg wurde mit einem Drama League Award gekrönt, aber Glenn Carter war nie nur auf diese eine Rolle fixiert: Auch in Musicals wie Les Misérables, Company oder Cats stellte er vielfach sein Können unter Beweis. Daneben stand er für Fernsehproduktionen wie Nine Lives und Psychoville vor der Kamera und bewies sich als Shakespeare-Darsteller in Stücken wie Hamlet oder Macbeth. Den ebenso charismatischen Gegenspieler von Jesus verkörpert Tim Oxbrow als Judas Iscariot.

  • Casting Judas: Interracial Intimacy in Jesus Christ Superstar by Larissa A
    Title Page Casting Judas: Interracial Intimacy in Jesus Christ Superstar by Larissa A. Irizarry B.A., Washington Adventist University, 2016 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts & Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Pittsburgh 2019 Committee Membership Page UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES This thesis was presented by Larissa A. Irizarry It was defended on March 29, 2019 and approved by James Cassaro, Professor, Music Dan Wang, Assistant Professor, Music Committee Chair: Olivia Bloechl, Professor, Music ii Copyright © by Larissa A. Irizarry 2019 iii Abstract Casting Judas: Interracial Intimacy in Jesus Christ Superstar Larissa A. Irizarry, MA University of Pittsburgh, 2019 Jesus Christ Superstar (JCS) by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice first debuted as a staged musical in 1971, and was turned into a film production in 1973. In 2000 Gale Edwards and Nick Morris directed a second film adaptation. On Easter Sunday 2018, JCS, directed by David Levaux and Alex Rudzinki, was broadcasted on NBC as a live musical television special. Each of these three productions incorporates different configurations of interracial intimacy among the characters of Judas, Jesus, and Mary. These different characterizations and configurations of race construction produce differing commentaries on race and interracial relations. Despite the emergent scholarship of critical race theory in theater and film studies, there is surprisingly little literature on the configurations of interracial intimacies in JCS. In this thesis, I draw on critical race theory and gender studies to explore how race inflects representations of intimacy in JCS, focusing on the characterization of Judas across these productions.

  • Riparian Corridor Management Plan East Kill Dodson / Mccloskey Property – Jewett, NY
    Riparian Corridor Management Plan East Kill Dodson / McCloskey Property – Jewett, NY March 18, 2010 Prepared by: Laura Weyeneth Catskill Streams Buffer Initiative Coordinator Greene County Soil and Water Conservation District Cairo, NY Introduction Maintaining healthy and intact riparian areas is a high priority of the Catskill Streams Buffer Initiative, as is improving the condition of degraded riparian buffers. Through the protection and enhancement of the riparian corridor we are protecting water quality, protecting and increasing habitat diversity and offering some level of stabilization for streambanks through natural biological means. Well vegetated riparian buffers filter upland pollutants, provide rooting mass for bank stability, and lower stream water temperatures. Numerous streams in the Catskills have been walked with detailed mapping of the vegetation conducted within the riparian corridors documenting various stream conditions, need for supplemental vegetation, presence of invasive species, and other conditions impacting the health of the riparian area. While 75% of the West of Hudson Watershed is forested, it is apparent that some riparian areas lack this protective cover. The overall goal of the Catskill Streams Buffer Initiative is to inform and assist landowners in better stewardship of their riparian (streamside) area through protection, enhancement, management, or restoration. The New York City Department of Environmental Protection and its partners (County Soil & Water Conservation Districts and Cornell Cooperative Extension) will assist private, riparian landowners throughout the West of Hudson Watershed by providing: 1) Riparian Corridor Management Plans to create awareness about riparian management issues specific to individual properties 2) Best management practice design and/or prescriptive measures and installation to encourage positive riparian stewardship and 3) Educational materials and activities as needed by landowners to understand the critical role of their buffer and how to maintain it in optimal functioning condition.
