Parler Sung by Mrs. Jewel Sullivan Chula, Arkansas June 24, 1960 Reel 390 Item 15 My Mother-In-Law When a man is gone on a pretty little girl He talks as gentle as a dove He spends all his money And he calls her is honey Sure is solid in love. When the money all gone And the clothes are few I'll tell you one thing true That a bird in hand is worth two in the bush What is a fellow going do. When the rent is high and The kids they cry Because there's no grub to chaw You hawk with son and loaded gun to vacinate your mother-in-law. So boys keep away from the girls I say And give them lots of room You'll find when you wed They bang you till your dead With the ball end of the broom.Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation

    Conservation is sexy! What makes this so, and what does this make? An engagement with celebrity and the environment

    No full text
    This essay offers an engagement with Daniel Brockington’s (2009) recent book Celebrity and the environment. I highlight the book’s contribution to debate regarding processes of human displacement arising through biodiversity conservation under conditions of neoliberal capitalism. I fi rst situate the book in relation to contemporary perspectives on displacement, justice, and human rights, using examples to illustrate complex and dynamic patterns of conservation inclusions and exclusions globally. This is followed by a summary of Brockington’s typology of conservation celebrities, and of the ways in which celebrities assist with the amassing of conservation finance. I proceed to consider the roles of a celebrity-saturated mass media (and mediated) ‘spectacle of conservation’ in structuring social and consumptive engagements with the ‘non-human’ world globally. I draw attention to how diverse peoples in conservation landscapes might become part of the spectacle of conservation by reconfiguring themselves as cultural objects of touristic consumerism in a script not necessarily of their choosing. By way of acknowledging the significance of social networks and alliances in infl uencing conservation perspectives and practice, I close with a disclaimer regarding my own long-term collaborations with the author of Celebrity and the environment

    The wedding bells were ringing On the moonlight winter night

    voiceCollected and Transcribed By Vera Sullivan For M. C. Parler Sung by Mrs. Jewel Sullivan Briggsville, Arkansas June 24, 1960 Reel 390, Item 13 The Fatal Wedding Night The wedding bells were ringing On the moonlight winter night The church was decorated all Within seem gay and bright. A mother with her baby Came and saw those lights aglow She thought of how those same bells Chime for her three years ago. Telling tales of fond affection Vowing never more to part Just another fatal wedding dust another broken heart. While the wedding bells were ringing While the bride and groom wer there Marching up the aisles together As the organ pealed the air. I must object the lady cried With a voice so meak and mild The bridegroom is my husband And this is our little child. What proof have you my lady Oh my baby she replied She rose from her seat and knelt to pray And the little one had died. No wedding feast was spread that night Two graves were made next day One for the little outcast And one the father lay. This story has been often told By fire sides warm and bright Of the bride and groom and the offcast And the fatal wedding nightFunding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation

    Kephart the Hunter

    No full text
    This article, pages 5 to 19, is titled, “Kephart the Hunter.” It appears in the January 1914 issue of The Berea Quarterly. On page 2 is a photograph taken from Kephart’s book “Our Southern Highlanders.” Horace Kephart (1862-1931) was a noted naturalist, woodsman, journalist, and author. In 1904, he left St. Louis and permanently moved to western North Carolina. Living and working in a cabin on Hazel Creek in Swain County, Kephart began to document life in the Great Smoky Mountains. “Our Southern Highlanders” was first published in 1913 and revised in 1922

    Erotic Fables & Fairy Tales, No. 2

    No full text
    I took a chance on two numbers of this comic book, and I think I am striking out. This #2 in the series offers three stories: The Song of Solomon, The Gingerbread Man, and The Hunter and the Cat Princess, Part 2. They are explicitly erotic. Not much of the fairytale quality remains in them. There are all sorts of warnings that these two comix are for adults only. I will keep them in the collection, but I will put a blank piece of cardboard in the envelope in front of the comic book!Written and illustrated by Stephen Sullivan, Chuck Spiers & Parker Zinde

    Applicability of Phase-Function Normalization Techniques for Radiation Transfer Computation

    No full text
    The applicability of recently-developed four phase-function (PF) normalization techniques for modeling radiation transfer in strongly anisotropic scattering media is intensively examined using the discrete-ordinate method. The three simple techniques via normalization of only the forward- and/or backward-scattering directions were shown to reduce normalization complexity whilst retaining diffuse radiation computation accuracy for Henyey-Greenstein (HG) PFs. For Legendre PFs, however, such simple techniques are found to result in unphysical negative PF value at one or few correction direction in some cases. Additionally, negative PF values can occur for these simple techniques for ballistic radiation transfer for both HG and Legendre PF types. If negative-intensity correction is applied, however, radiative heat transfer calculation can still converge regardless of the appearance of negative PF values. The relatively complex Hunter and Guo 2012 technique, in which normalization is realized through a correction matrix covering all discrete directions, is shown to be applicable for diffuse and ballistic radiation for both PF types.Peer reviewed
