Lambert, Hendricks & Ross: American ventriloquism
No full textIt has been fifty-one years since the last Lambert, Hendricks & Ross studio recording. Since then Dave Lambert was tragically killed on the Connecticut Turnpike, Jon Hendricks has become a University of Toledo professor, and Annie Ross is still performing frequently worldwide. Few jazz vocalists are accepted into the scholastic canon. Fewer are filed in the annals of music history. But, if any vocalists should be regarded important to the story of jazz music it is LHR. Their impact on the art of vocalese has yet to be fully felt. In exploring the motivation behind the group’s dense, meticulous, trailblazing recordings, this study attempts to be a supplement for what was too much for liner notes in the late 50’s and 60’s, while simultaneously giving a brief encompassing historical outline. By examining the social and musical impact of Lambert Hendricks & Ross, this study attempts to further legitimate the art of jazz vocals and vocalese.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Bilal Salaa
Letter from Eliza S. Hendricks to John Muir, 1894 Mar 1.
No full text[4]for the advanced chapters in the Century. I very much enjoyed a series of letters you once wrote for the San [Yo?] Examiner upon Alaska. Do you remember a Mrs. Wells and her husband whom you met the evening we spent at Mrs. Graydon\u27s You will be sorry to hear that she lost her husband last summer. She is very sad. She was much pleased to meet you, and was much interested in your talk that evening. I think your book will do her good.The kind remarks you penned in your last letter regarding our home, were very gratifying to all. My brother, and his wife send kindest regards. When are you coming again? I have written you a long letter. I hope I have not wearied you.Very sincerely your friendEliza S. Hendricks.611 N. Meridian St.[1]Indianapolis March 1, 94My Dear Mr. Muir:Many thanks for the prompt and most friendly reply to my letter; and many very many for the book. I was very much pleased to receive it. I had read it, although I did not own it. Mrs. Graydon had two copies--one a Xmas gift--and she very kindly sent me one of them for me to read; and when I had read it I felt that I must have a copy of my own. Is there not a peculiar atmosphere--a flavor--about a book received at the hand of the author, which is not quite there01789https://scholarlycommons.pacific.edu/jmcl/26732/thumbnail.jp

The Author[’s] Remains: Foucault and the Demise of the “Author-Function”
No full textAt several points throughout his career, Foucault suggests that publishing texts without authors’ names attached would be a useful step towards dismantling what he calls the “author-function:” a social and political role structured according to the way discourse is treated and disseminated in a particular social setting. I discuss Foucault’s criticisms of the author-function in terms of its relationship to the political role of intellectuals, and I argue that the demise of this role cannot be achieved through the means of authorial anonymity, as Foucault suggests. Rather, it must be undermined from a position within this role itself
An assessment instrument to evaluate technology education curricula and its correlation to the standards for technological literacy
No full textPlan BThe purpose of this study was to identify or develop an assessment instrument to evaluate technology education curricula and its correlation to the Standards for Technological Literacy. The end result was a researcher developed assessment instrument that was reviewed by a panel of experts to provide validity to its effectiveness for assessing curricula and the standards. The instrument was developed as a matrix allowing the evaluator to rate course objectives against benchmarks using a four level rating system. The end product is a one-page summary that graphs the correlation present between a curriculum and standards

Book Review: The Universe Bends Toward Justice: Radical Reflections on the Church, the Bible, and the Body Politic by Obery M. Hendricks
No full textObery M. Hendricks' The Universe Bends Toward Justice is a rigorous, highly nuanced, and skillful treatment of the paucity of prophetic Christian witness and critique in the church and in society. The author, who is an ordained elder in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, as well as an acclaimed scholar and intellectual and former seminary president, marshals significant evidence in setting forth the thesis that things have gone seriously awry in a nation that claims direct de- scent from the maker of all things. Not one to leave the reader languishing in some netherworld of political correctness or convoluted intellectualisms, Hendricks calls by name the besetting sin and deviltry that would rend the nation, with its lofty ideals of unanimity and love of truth, into a curious, contemptible mélange of atomistic, social hierarchies that bow at the great altar of Spencerian economic and social theory. "We are living in insane times," says Hendricks, "Like purveyors of a bad Orwellian joke, the religious right and right-wing politicians have hijacked the meanings of justice and equity and cynically perverted them into their very opposites." For the author, this tattered re-inversion of the Nietzschean "transvaluation of values" has led to "bizarre and unconscionable results" in both civic life and in the ekklesia—the assembly of those called out to bear witness to the life and ministry of Jesus Christ
Influence of communal and private folklore on bringing meaning to the experience of persistent pain
No full textAIM:
To provide an overview of the relevance and strengths of using the literary folkloristic methodology to explore the ways in which people with persistent pain relate to and make sense of their experiences through narrative accounts.
BACKGROUND:
Storytelling is a conversation with a purpose. The reciprocal bond between researcher and storyteller enables the examination of the meaning of experiences. Life narratives, in the context of wider traditional and communal folklore, can be analysed to discover how people make sense of their circumstances.
DATA SOURCES:
This paper draws from the experience of the author, who has previously used this narrative approach. It is a reflection of how the approach may be used to understand those experiencing persistent pain without a consensual diagnosis.
REVIEW METHODS:
Using an integrative method, peer-reviewed research and discussion papers published between January 1990 and December 2014 and listed in the CINAHL, Science Direct, PsycINFO and Google Scholar databases were reviewed. In addition, texts that addressed research methodologies such as literary folkloristic methodology and Marxist literary theory were used.
DISCUSSION:
The unique role that nurses play in managing pain is couched in the historical and cultural context of nursing. Literary folkloristic methodology offers an opportunity to gain a better understanding and appreciation of how the experience of pain is constructed and to connect with sufferers.
CONCLUSION:
Literary folkloristic methodology reveals that those with persistent pain are often rendered powerless to live their lives. Increasing awareness of how this experience is constructed and maintained also allows an understanding of societal influences on nursing practice.
IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE/RESEARCH:
Nurse researchers try to understand experiences in light of specific situations. Literary folkloristic methodology can enable them to understand the inter-relationship between people in persistent pain and how they construct their experiences
