Episode 31: Professor Paul W. Wehr Day at the Pioneer Days Pine Castle Historical Society History Tent Event
No full textThe Department of History’s Sebastian Garcia talked with Mr. Richard Lee Cronin, author, historian, and event coordinator of the Pine Castle Historical Society HISTORY TENT, at the Annual Pine Castle Pioneer Days Event.
This episode is dedicated to and is in honor of Professor Paul W. Wehr.
A Professor of History at UCF since the Department’s inception in 1969, Professor Wehr retired in 1995 after 25 years of teaching his passion for history—inspiring countless students and faculty. Professor Wehr devoted much of his time to documenting the history of Orange County, specifically Pine Castle. This naturally led to a close relationship with the Pine Castle Historical Society, which dedicated Day 1 of the 2-day event at Pioneer Days to Professor Wehr for the first time this year. Sebastian decided to pay tribute to one of UCF’s original history professors by going to the Pine Castle Pioneer Days HISTORY TENT event dedicated to him and produced a podcast on location with Mr. Richard Lee Cronin, who knew Professor Wehr personally.
Below are links to an Orlando Memory interview featuring Professor Wehr himself that Sebastian mentioned in the introduction of this podcast, the page to know more about his books and association with Pine Castle, and a UCF CAH article written about Professor Wehr shortly after his passing in 2021. https://orlandomemory.info/topics/oral-history-interview-with-dr-paul-w-wehr/ https://www.pinecastlehistory.org/publications-books-pamphlets/ https://news.cah.ucf.edu/news/remembering-paul-w-wehr/https://stars.library.ucf.edu/knightshistorycast/1030/thumbnail.jp
‘Where else did they copy their styles but from church groups?’ Rock and Pentecostalism in the 1950s South
No full textChurch leaders and laypeople in the US went on the defensive shortly after rock and roll became a national youth craze in 1955 and 1956. Few of those religious critics would have been aware or capable of understanding that rock ‘n’ roll, in fact, had deep religious roots. Early rockers, all southerners—such as Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, and James Brown—grew up in or regularly attended pentecostal churches. Pentecostalism, a vibrant religious movement that traced its origins to the early 20th century, broke with many of the formalities of traditional protestantism. Believers held mixed-race services during the height of Jim Crow segregation. The faithful spoke in tongues, practiced healing, and cultivated loud, revved-up, beat-driven music. These were not the sedate congregants of mainline churches. Some pentecostal churches incorporated drums, brass instruments, pianos, and even newly invented electric guitars. Rock ‘n’ roll performers looked back to the vibrant churches of their youth, their charismatic pastors, and to flashy singing itinerants for inspiration. In a region that novelist Flannery O'Connor called “Christ-haunted,” the line between secular and sacred, holy and profane was repeatedly crossed by rock musicians. This article traces the black and white pentecostal influence on rock ‘n’ roll in the American South, from performance style and music to dress and religious views. It also analyzes the vital ways that religion took center stage in arguments and debates about the new genre

Skeletal Growth Estimation Using Radiographic Image Processing and Analysis
No full textAn automated knowledge-based vision system for skeletal growth estimation in children is reported in this paper. Images were obtained from hand radiographs of 32 male and 25 female children of age 1–16 yr. Phalanx bones were automatically localized and segmented using hierarchical inferences and active shape models, respectively. A number of shape descriptors were obtained from the segmented bone contour to quantify skeletal growth. From these descriptors, a feature vector was selected for a regression model and a Bayesian estimator. The estimation accuracy was 84% for females and 82% for males. This level of accuracy is comparable to that of expert pediatric radiologists, which suggests that the proposed approach has a potential application in pediatric medicine
Electrochemical and yeast-catalysed ring-opening of isoxazoles in the synthesis of analogues of the herbicide Grasp(R)
No full textIsoxazoles substituted with an electron-withdrawing group at the 4-position undergo electrochemical and yeast-catalysed N-O bond cleavage. The electrolysis is much more efficient and, with acyl- and alkoxycarbonyl-substituted isoxazoles, it affords the enolised dicarbonylimine functionality characteristic of the herbicide Grasp (R). Regioisomeric 4- and 5-substituted isoxazoles are accessible through nitrile oxide cycloaddition chemistry, using halogen as a steric auxiliary to control the regiochemistry of reaction. Crystal data for compounds 11 and 19b are presented.Christopher J. Easton, Graham A. Heath, C. Merrîcc M. Hughes, Connie K. Y. Lee, G. Paul Savage, Gregory W. Simpson, Edward R. T. Tiekink, George J.

Richard the Lionheart. The Background to "Ja nus homs pris"
No full textIn December 1192, on his way back from the Third Crusade, Richard the Lionheart was captured by Duke Leopold of Austria, who bore him several grudges on account of a number of events that had taken place during the Crusade, and who later sold him on to his enemy the Emperor Henry VI. Richard was finally released in February 1194 after nearly a year and a half in captivity, following the payment of a sizeable ransom. During this time he wrote many letters to encourage his subjects to collect the funds needed to pay the ransom, one of which took the form of a song, Ja nus homs pris ne dira sa raison.
This song has been called a rotrouenge, referring to the French musical genre on which it is based, but it might be better termed a sirventes-canso or even a post Crusade song, since, unlike Crusade songs, it does not seek to encourage men to leave to fight a Crusade, but rather describes the aftermath of the Crusade for its author. However, as occurs in many Crusade songs, Richard uses the language of the love song to make a political statement, here describing or alluding to events taking place in his kingdom during his absence, while appealing to his loyal barons to provide for the ransom. Though an apparently simple poem, Ja nus homs pris has a far from simple manuscript tradition, surviving as it does in 10 manuscripts, seven of which are French and three Occitan.
In this paper I will provide a reading of the song against the background of events before and after Richard's captivity and consider whether some of the many textual problems posed by the poem and its manuscript tradition may be solved by taking into account the historical references within the text. In this way I will attempt to lay the basis for a new critical edition of the song based on all ten manuscripts and not just on the French group, or alternatively the Occitan group, which has been the tendency so far
