  • A's News Clips, Tuesday, August 10, 2010 Little Excitement For
    A’s News Clips, Tuesday, August 10, 2010 Little excitement for Oakland A's in Chris Carter's debut By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune Chris Carter's inclusion in the A's lineup Monday signaled the arrival of a key piece to the team's future. In the present, the A's are still a sputtering operation with the bat. That was reinforced during a 3-1 loss to the Seattle Mariners that included Oakland hitting into its second triple play of the season. The A's put the leadoff runner on base in five of the first six innings but couldn't cash in against a struggling Mariners club that announced the firing of manager Don Wakamatsu, bench coach Ty Van Burkleo and pitching coach Rick Adair earlier in the day. But despite the disappointing start to a six-game road trip, there was an air of excitement surrounding the A's with the promotion of Carter, the 6-foot-5, 231-pound slugger rated the team's top prospect by Baseball America. Carter, 23, was promoted from Triple-A Sacramento along with infielder Jeff Larish and started at left field in his major league debut. "I feel like I'm ready," Carter said before the game. "I've been waiting for this forever." The early results weren't encouraging. Carter went 0 for 3 and looked bad striking out on breaking balls in his first two at- bats. He grounded out sharply to third in the seventh. With Matt Watson going on the disabled list with kidney stones and fellow outfielder Matt Carson optioned to Sacramento, Carter figures to get regular playing time for the foreseeable future.

  • Cthulhu Lives!: a Descriptive Study of the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society
    CTHULHU LIVES!: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY OF THE H.P. LOVECRAFT HISTORICAL SOCIETY J. Michael Bestul A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2006 Committee: Dr. Jane Barnette, Advisor Prof. Bradford Clark Dr. Marilyn Motz ii ABSTRACT Dr. Jane Barnette, Advisor Outside of the boom in video game studies, the realm of gaming has barely been scratched by academics and rarely been explored in a scholarly fashion. Despite the rich vein of possibilities for study that tabletop and live-action role-playing games present, few scholars have dug deeply. The goal of this study is to start digging. Operating at the crossroads of art and entertainment, theatre and gaming, work and play, it seeks to add the live-action role-playing game, CTHULHU LIVES, to the discussion of performance studies. As an introduction, this study seeks to describe exactly what CTHULHU LIVES was and has become, and how its existence brought about the H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society. Simply as a gaming group which grew into a creative organization that produces artifacts in multiple mediums, the Society is worthy of scholarship. Add its humble beginnings, casual style and non-corporate affiliation, and its recent turn to self- sustainability, and the Society becomes even more interesting. In interviews with the artists behind CTHULHU LIVES, and poring through the archives of their gaming experiences, the picture develops of the journey from a small group of friends to an organization with influences and products on an international scale.
