    Ramón Rodríguez (The New Raemon / Madee) Escoger un álbum para contar una historia es tan sacrificado como creer en el amor perdurable. Tan solo una portada ilustra este relato, pero sería injusto no reconocer que en realidad he pensado en dos referencias para escribirlo. No me siento del todo culpable, ya que Archers of Loaf vs The Greatest of All Time es un EP. Sunny Day Real Estate, Sunny Day Real Estate (Sub Pop, 1995) Un día soleado Jamás he tenido intención de contratar los servicios de una vidente, pero si en 1992 una bruja llega a decirme que en diez años estaría comiendo un croissant en el cuartel general de Sub Pop, uno de mis sellos preferidos, no habría creído una sola palabra. Eso mismo pensé mientras desayunaba con Shawn Rogers en las oficinas de Sub Pop, en Seattle. Shawn era el mánager de Crooked Fingers, el proyecto en solitario de Eric Bachmann tras la disolución Archers of Loaf, y Archers of Loaf —eran y siguen siendo— mi grupo de rock predilecto de los noventa. Shawn dejó en la mesa su taza de café. Mientras yo trataba de masticar aquel croissant que acababa de ofrecerme, lanzó una pregunta que tardé bastante en contestar. —¿Te apetece cenar con Eric y conmigo mañana? El Eric de la pregunta no era otro que Eric Bachmann, y la propuesta de Shawn era un bonito gesto a modo de mano tendida. 72 Ramón Rodríguez Crucé por primera vez el charco en 2002 con la intención de conseguir licencias para Cydonia, el sello discográfico que fundé en 2001 para publicar los discos de Madee y otros artistas nacionales e internacionales.

  • Political Reelism: a Rhetorical Criticism of Reflection and Interpretation in Political Films
    POLITICAL REELISM: A RHETORICAL CRITICISM OF REFLECTION AND INTERPRETATION IN POLITICAL FILMS Jennifer Lee Walton A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2006 Committee: John J. Makay, Advisor Richard Gebhardt Graduate Faculty Representative John T. Warren Alberto Gonzalez ii ABSTRACT John J. Makay, Advisor The purpose of this study is to discuss how political campaigns and politicians have been depicted in films, and how the films function rhetorically through the use of core values. By interpreting real life, political films entertain us, perhaps satirically poking fun at familiar people and events. However, the filmmakers complete this form of entertainment through the careful integration of American values or through the absence of, or attack on those values. This study provides a rhetorical criticism of movies about national politics, with a primary focus on the value judgments, political consciousness and political implications surrounding the films Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939), The Candidate (1972), The Contender (2000), Wag the Dog (1997), Power (1986), and Primary Colors (1998). iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank everyone who made this endeavor possible. First and foremost, I thank Doctor John J. Makay; my committee chair, for believing in me from the start, always encouraging me to do my best, and assuring me that I could do it. I could not have done it without you. I wish to thank my committee members, Doctors John Warren and Alberto Gonzalez, for all of your support and advice over the past months.

  • Featuring Natasha Bedingfield New Album
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE LIFEHOUSE RELEASE NEW SINGLE TODAY “BETWEEN THE RAINDROPS” FEATURING NATASHA BEDINGFIELD NEW ALBUM DUE OUT LATER THIS YEAR New York, NY – September 11, 2012 – Geffen Records recording artists Lifehouse return with their first new single in three years: “Between The Raindrops” featuring Natasha Bedingfield. The track is the first single from the band’s forthcoming sixth album and it’s also their first duet. “Between The Raindrops” is available today on iTunes and all other major digital outlets. To hear a sample of the track go to www.lifehousemusic.com Produced by long time collaborator Jude Cole , “Between The Raindrops” features Natasha Bedingfield trading passionate vocals with Lifehouse lead singer Jason Wade . "’Between the Raindrops’ is a confluence of all these different musical styles coming together,” Wade remarked. “There is this cinematic spaghetti western undercurrent breathing and moving in the confines of a pop rock song. The track started as a complete experiment, a sort of stream of consciousness. Over the next few ensuing months Jude and I rewrote the song at least half a dozen times. We brought our friend Jacob Kasher in to help us finish the lyrics. I feel like the song really was solidified and came to life when Natasha came down to the studio and sang on the track." More details on Lifehouse’s forthcoming album will be released in the following weeks. Lifehouse’s multi-platinum 2000 debut, No Name Face , produced “Hanging by a Moment,” a #1 alternative hit which crossed over to become Top 40’s Most Played Song of 2001, while 2002’s Stanley Climbfall solidified the band as a touring force.

Poetry and other creative efforts should be levers, weapons to be used in the people's struggle for understanding, human rights, and decency. "Art for Art's Sake" is a misnomer. The poet can never be neutral. In a hungry world the struggle between oppressor and oppressed is unending. There is the inevitable question: "Which side are you on?" To be content with as they are, to be "neutral," is to take sides with the oppressor who also wants to keep the status quo.

Yearwood 3 Proem Not, in the saying of you, are you said. Baffled and like a root stopped by a stone you turn back questioning the tree you feed. But what the leaves hear is not what the roots ask. Inexhaustibly, being at one time what was to be said and at another time what has been said the saying of you remains the living of you never to be said.
