Stasis in music and the formation of musical states and A portrait of an infant (on coming into being)
No full textThe perception of structure in music is frequently based upon a theoretical understanding of the musical elements. This basis tends toward stylized analysis of a specific element of the music, for instance, pitch, form, rhythm, et cetera, with the goal of revealing the tendencies or development of this element throughout the piece. Not frequently discussed is the function and significance of stasis in perceiving the structure of music. A “moment” of stasis, as Stockhausen called it, can alternatively be understood as a “state of existence.” A static section of music can give a sensation of inactivity often comprehended as a slowing of the music!s forward momentum, or temporality, as contrasted with more dynamic states. A musical state is reliant upon a particular treatment of its internal elements, incorporating varying degrees of limitation and change. Analysis of both dynamic and static states is considered in an endeavor to further understand the function of musical stasis in the structure of a composition.Ph.

Healey\u27s Popularity Declines, Housing & Immigration Seen as Most Important Problems 7/18/2024
No full textMassachusetts residents are divided on Maura Healey\u27s performance as governor and her approval rating has declined since May. Housing and immigration are cited most often as the most important problems facing Massachusetts and half of state residents feel the commonwealth is headed in the right direction. A plurality support the 2021 MBTA Communities law requiring communities with access to the MBTA to zone for multifamily housing. Bay Staters show very little interest in renaming Logan Airport after Bill Russell, though many residents are ambivalent or have no opinion on the issue
Writing Partnerships in Higher Education: A Guide for Academics and HE Professionals
No full textThis is an Accepted Manuscript of a book chapter published by Routledge in [Writing partnerships in higher education: A guide for academics and HE professionals] on [date of publication], available online: http://www.routledge.com/[BOOK ISBN URL]International collaborative writing groups (ICWGs), working with a sponsoring organization, have had a major impact on capacity building and developing learning communities, as well as producing quality outputs (Healey, 2017; ISSOTL, nd). They are about “working creatively, critically and collaboratively to address a scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) challenge from a multi-perspective lens” (Abrahamson, 2023). ICWGs usually involve groups of staff and students from different countries working together with a leader in small teams to write articles about pre-selected topics for submission to an international peer-reviewed journal. The process normally lasts around 18 months from announcement to submission, with participants working mostly online. The highlight is when all the teams come together for between 2 and 3 days, before or after an international conference, to work intensively on their articles. Whilst this model has predominantly been used within the context of SoTL, it is easily transferable to other topics and disciplines.
We ran the first full ICWG in SoTL from 2004-06 for geographers, drawing on the experience of running an international seminar in 1999 that piloted many of the features that subsequently came to characterise ICWGs (Healey, 2006; Healey et al., 2000)). Subsequently in 2012 we introduced ICWGs to ISSOTL (Healey et al., 2013). We have experienced each of the three ICWG roles – event facilitator, group leader, and co-author – several times in the last 25 years (Table 1). In this chapter we offer advice based on our reflections on these experiences, and the research evidence on the opportunities and challenges ICWGs have provided for participants. We outline some suggestions for how participants playing the different ICWG roles may make the most of their experiences, and how the model might be used by the wider SoTL community and other academic communities to support local, national, and institutional collaborative writing groups. We begin by exploring the nature and purposes of ICWGs in SoTL
Adolescent Journals of Caroline Healey Dall
No full textCaroline Healey Dall(1822-1912), Boston born reformer, lecturer, author of books, freelance journalist, memoirist, and occasional preacher, began her apprenticeship as a writer at the age of nine with the keeping of a journal. While still a child, however, she destroyed her earliest journal when she discovered her father reading it. For some time thereafter, she ceased her journal keeping. But soon finding herself unable to quell the need to express herself on paper, she resumed the habit. The journals of this second period, which ran for several years, survived until Dall was in her seventies. Then she also destroyed them, out of regard for her mother, whose mental illness the journals documented all too well. And so Dall\u27s earliest surviving original journal dates from March 1838, when she was fifteen; from that point on, she records her activities, thoughts, and feelings until within a few months of her death at age ninety. This remarkable record of seventy-five years, now at the Massachusetts Historical Society, is, I suspect, the fullest known account of the life of a nineteenth- century American woman. In this article I will concern myself with the surviving journals of Caroline Healey\u27s teenage years, that is, from March 1838 until June 1842, when she turned twenty. In this discussion I wish to treat certain editorial problems raised by these texts, and then I wish to give you some sense of the nature, significance, and value of the adolescent journals by introducing some of the major issues and themes treated in them. Finally, I hope briefly to illustrate the power of these journals

Gwendolyne Stevens
No full text"Gwendolyne Daphne was born on 7 June 1908 at Quorn, South Australia, daughter of Hugo Albert Valentine Healey, painter and later publican, and his wife Jessie Gwendolyne, n?e Napier, both South Australian born.
Gwendolyne attended several rural schools, including Innamincka Public, before proceeding to St Peter's Collegiate Girls' School, Adelaide. Miss Healey trained at Burra public and (Royal) Adelaide hospitals, and was registered as a nurse on 11 July 1929. She then moved to Parkside Mental Hospital where she gained a certificate in psychiatric nursing in 1931 and became sister-in-charge. In 1934 she bought a large house at Payneham that had been built by James Marshall, converted it into a private psychiatric hospital and named it St Margarets. As its owner and matron for eighteen years, she cared for patients suffering the early stages of nervous disorders, and provided them with a secure and restful setting, with aviaries amid beautiful gardens. That she took on such a task during the depression, and succeeded in it, testified to her business acumen, organizing ability and compassion for those in need.
At the chapel of the Collegiate School of St Peter, Adelaide, on 12 April 1940, she married George Dempster Stevens, a clerk employed by Dalgety & Co. Ltd. They were to have two daughters.
Pursuing her interest in community health, Mrs Stevens was founding president (1944-50) and a committee-member (until 1961) of the Payneham branch of the Mothers' and Babies' Health Association.
After she sold her hospital in 1952, she set up Sterling Downs, a Poll Dorset stud on 2200 acres (890 ha) at Currency Creek, in 1957. She employed a manager to supervise the stud and visited it each week. In the 1960s she sold part of the land and moved the stud to Sterling Park, McLaren Vale. The stud was later sold and its sheep replaced with cattle.
Having noticed particular outcrops of rock at Sterling Park, Stevens arranged for drilling to be conducted, as a result of which she opened a quarry and sold building sands to the local council.
In 1968 she became interested in the mining potential of the Northern Territory. She studied maps, obtained advice from geologists and concentrated on an area near Oenpelli, Arnhem Land. She received permission to prospect on 1282 sq. miles (3320 km?) of Aboriginal reserve and negotiated an exploration programme with Queensland Mines Ltd.
In 1970 that company discovered what was then described as the richest body of uranium ore in the world, at a site known to local Aborigines as Nabarlek.
Newspapers referred to Stevens as 'probably the first woman in the world with a right to mine uranium'. She visited the area twice during the early stages of exploration and was staggered by the size of the find.
In August 1971, however, Queensland Mines downgraded the ore reserves to about one-sixth of those announced a year earlier. Intending to use some of the proceeds of her investment to benefit the health of the Aborigines, she transferred the exploration licences to Queensland Mines in May 1973 and negotiated a royalty agreement. Mining at Nabarlek began in 1979.
Mrs Stevens both created and took advantage of opportunities in the areas of mental health, sheep-breeding and mining. Suffering from hypertension, she died of a cerebral haemorrhage on 3 March 1974 in her Kensington Park home and was cremated. She was survived by her husband and their daughters. Her estate was sworn for probate at $416,266." [author Tony Bott].NurseSheep BreederMining EntrepreneurHospital Proprieto
