Captain Jinks of the Horde Marines
I'mCaptain Jinks of the horse marines,
I feed my horse on corn and beans,
Of course it's got beyond my means
Of a captain in the army.
Root Hog or Die
,.,they had this uh — m when uh -- some of em they went in different
sroves you know, and they had oxens fer to draw their wagins, And this
was a song that they sang on the road.
It was every day at noon there was something to do,
If there was nothing left there would be an ox to shoe, lie,
Close to the ropes you'd hew (?) him, and there'd you'd make him
When you tack on the shoe, boys, root hog or die.
When we arrived at Salt Lake, the twenty-fifth of June,
The people were surprised to see us come so soon.
But we are bold Bohunkers on whom you can rely,
We're thugh and we can stand it too, root hog or die,
Wow that's all I can remember of that song but I used to know the whole
thing. You see they shod their cattle, and I don't know whether Louis —
that's her husband -- ever seen one, a cow's shorse's shoe — me ox's
shoe, but he says they' re in two parts.Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation
Captain Jinks
No full text1. I am Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines,
I often live beyond my means,
I sport young ladies in their teens,
To cut a swell in the army.
I teach the ladies how to dance,
how to dance, how to dance,
I teach the ladies how to dance,
For I\u27m their pet in the army.
I\u27m Captain Jinks of the Horse Marines,
I give my horse good corn and beans;
Of course its quite beyond my means,
Tho a Captain in the army.
2. I join\u27d my corps when twenty-one,
Of course I thought it capital fun;
When the enemy came, then off I run,
I wasn\u27t cut out for the army.
When I left home mama she cried,
mama she cried, mama she cried,
When I left home mama she cried
He aint cut out for the army.
3, The first day I went out to drill
The bugle sound made me quite ill.
At the Balance step my hat it fell,
And that wouldn\u27t do for the army.
The officers they all did shout,
they all cried out, they all did shout,
The officers they all did shout
Oh that\u27s the Cure of the army !
4. My Tailor\u27s bills came in so fast
Forc\u27d me one day to leave at last,
And ladies too no more did cast
Sheep\u27s eyes at me in the army.
My Creditors at me did shout,
at me did shout, at me did shout,
My Creditors at me did shout,
Why kick him out of the army

Reply to Houran and Lange (2012)
No full textHouran and Lange (2012) claim that I (Jinks, 2012) criticise past paranormal belief research for not accurately representing the socio-psychological tendencies and traits of strong believers. They outline conceptual, psychometric and methodological issues that limit my main conclusions. In this reply, I clarify Houran and Lange's mistaken assumption that I conflated 'informed' belief with 'justified' belief, and 'quasi' (or uninformed) belief with 'unjustified' belief. I do not classify respondents as justified and unjustified believers. Also, my analysis of relevant paranormal items is not confined to ghosts, but includes relevant items pertaining to anomalous information acquisition. It is important to understand that my original pilot study (Jinks, 2012) was a comparison of responses to primary items (typical of paranormal belief questionnaires) with responses to secondary
items that were (potentially) anomalous rationalisations of the topics
contained in those items. Finally, I concur with Houran and Lange's
(2012) suggestions for future research
Integrating supply chain simulation, component geometry, and unit cost estimation
No full textThis thesis shows how utilising dynamic simulation to estimate unit costs and manufacturing resources, can aid design decisions. A framework specification is introduced that integrates Computer Aided Design (CAD), Discrete Event Simulation (DES) and Activity Based Cost (ABC) methodology. The framework aids a design team in understanding the consequences of design decisions in terms of unit cost and manufacturing resources, by returning aggregated unit cost and manufacturing based data, directly to the design team, within the design environment.Dynamic Resource Estimation System (DRES) has been developed to implement the framework and conduct two case studies based on representative aerospace components. The purpose of the first case study is to determine the benefits and applications of integrating a dynamic supply chain simulation and unit cost estimation. The second case study is used to show that the framework is capable of handling significantly different components and to highlight the effort required to implement a new component within the framework. This thesis concludes that there are three primary benefits provided by the framework, which are: firstly, the framework can accurately predict required resources to fulfil a supply chain for a specific production rate, which can be utilised by manufacturing engineers to aid production planning; secondly, the framework increases refinement of a component unit cost estimate, by including manufacturing time and dynamically determined resource requirements into an ABC cost model; and thirdly, the framework has the ability to compare multiple supply chain options and different supply chain types at the same time from component geometry
An examination of citizen participation in community development: a case study of the city of Beauport, South Carolina, 1985
No full textThe primary purpose of this study is to critically examine the problems inherent in the implementation of the comprehensive community development projects that are funded by the Community Development Block Grant funds in the City of Beaufort, South Carolina. The findings of this study revealed that there was lack of participation on the part of the citizens within the target areas in the community development efforts. In addition, the study also revealed that the city relied solely on funds from the federal government without seeking alternative sources of funding (especially from the private sector) to implement its community development efforts. Two case studies on public-private partnership in the cities of Baltimore, Maryland, Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Minnesota were utilized to highlight the successes of such joint ventures. The primary sources of information for this study were obtained from participatory observation and interviews with employees of the Department of Community Development in Beaufort, as well as members of the Community Development Advisory Committee. Secondary information was obtained from books, articles, minutes of the Beaufort City Council meetings, pamphlets and other documents
