A strategy beyond the four walls: Wholistic, incarnational, and contextual evangelism for the Churches of God in Christ in the Metro Jackson, MS area., 2001
No full textThe ministry-issue that formed the basis of this doctoral project was twofold. Is there an effective and relevant delivery system for Evangelistic training in the Church of God in Christ and, can local Church of God in Christ congregations be impacted and organized by training to become more active in work of Evangelism? In other words how active is the Church of God in Christ in the evangelism enterprise? How are they being trained and can effective training make a difference in an urban and rural church setting in a typical American city of medium size? The assumption is that many Churches of God in Christ congregations are not doing effective Evangelism because the delivery system in the national church structure is ineffective and local Church of God in Christ are stagnant in the pursuits of Evangelism because of a lack of proper training and leadership. This study has examined the Evangelism Department of the Church of God in Christ on all levels: National, Jurisdictional, District, and Local levels to see how evangelism training and implementation is done. The second phase involved working with two churches in the Jackson Metropolitan area one in the city of Jackson and the other in rural Rankin county in Brandon, MS. The work included an evaluation phase, training phase, a second evaluation phase and a plan of implementation for carrying out a modem program of evangelism. This twofold process tested a modern model of evangelism developed by this author with the two churches teaching the model. The final part of the dissertation, the author evaluates the process and outcomes of the project. The evaluation was based on where the congregations were in their understanding and practice of evangelism beforebeing taught. The effect of training and leadership in the area of evangelism and the measurable results that came as a result of their exposure to the model. This project concludes with a theory of evangelism, further recommendations for continued ministry, a model of training for local congregations to evangelize, and further recommend readings. The author believes intentional training and leadership in this area of ministry will produce and increase in awareness and activity in the vital work evangelism in the body of Christ
The invisible artist: Arrangers in popular music (1950-2000): Their contribution and techniques
No full textThis thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and was awarded by Brunel University.This thesis is based on the research conducted by the author for the series,
Richard Niles' History of Pop Arranging, seven thirty-minute documentary
programmes for BBC Radio 2, researched, written and presented by the author and
broadcast in 2003. It also draws on interviews conducted by the author (and other
research) between 2002 and 2007 both for the radio series and for this thesis and on
the author's experience as a professional arranger in popular music working with
many of the genre's significant recording artists including Paul McCartney, Ray
Charles, Cher, Tina Turner, Westlife, Tears For Fears, Dusty Springfield, James
Brown, Pet Shop Boys, Kylie Minogue and producers including Trevor Hom, Steve
Lipson, Steve Mac and Steve Anderson.
It will be argued that the role of the arranger in popular music has often been
undervalued and that during a critical period of popular music history (1950-2000)
arrangers played a significant part in the evolution of musical content. This thesis is,
to the best of the author's knowledge, the first time (apart from the above mentioned
documentary) the subject has ever been examined. The arranger is "invisible" because musical arrangers are often un-credited on
record liner notes or in books or articles concerning popular music. A considerable
amount of research has been necessary to determine who wrote many of the
arrangements considered herein. Motown's Berry Gordy purposely kept the names of
musicians and arrangers off the records because he feared others might 'poach' the
trademark 'Motown Sound'. Other record labels considered the job of the arranger to
be reminiscent of an earlier era, diluting the Rock 'n' Roll image of emotion and
spontanaeity they wished to promote. Some producers and recording artists disliked
sharing credit for their work. Motown arranger David Van dePitte told the author that
arranging was "thankless and anonymous - a very service-oriented profession where
others often take credit for what you've done." Arranging has therefore remained an
intrinsically unseen art created by 'invisible' artists. By analyzing many recordings,
revealing the techniques and concepts they have used in their work to create popular
records, arrangers and their art will be made more 'visible'

"Get off the track!" A song for emancipation, sung by The Hutchinsons, . . .
No full textAn illustrated sheet music cover for an abolitionist song composed by Jesse Hutchinson, Jr. The song is dedicated to antislavery editor Nathaniel Peabody Rogers, "As a mark of esteem for his intrepidity in the cause of Human Rights." It is illustrated with an allegory of the triumph of abolitionism. In a landscape a railroad car, "Immediate Emancipation," is drawn by a locomotive named "Liberator" and followed by another locomotive, the "Repealer," which pulls a second car "Liberty Votes and Ballot Boxes." The "Liberator" was the name of a prominent antislavery newspaper published in Boston by William Lloyd Garrison. "Repealer" probably refers to the Irish insurgent movement in support of the repeal of the Legislative Union, a cause with which many abolitionists in the United States were allied. Flags bearing the names of two other abolitionist publications, the "Herald of Freedom" and "American Standard" (i.e., Rogers's" National Anti-slavery Standard), fly from the "Emancipation" car. The trains approach a bend in the track, nearing a station where a number of people gather to welcome them. Beyond the station is a church. In the distance two other trains, one marked "Van" and the other "Clay," crash and their passengers flee. These allude to Democrat and Whig presidential hopefuls Martin Van Buren and Henry Clay. The reference to Van Buren suggests that the music-sheet appeared before the Democratic convention in May, when James K. Polk, not Van Buren, received the party's presidential nomination.Entered . . . 1844 by J. Hutchinson.Thayer & Co's.

Suitability of soxhlet extraction to quantify microalgal fatty acids as determined by comparison with in situ transesterification
No full textAuthor Posting. © The Author(s), 2011. This is the author's version of the work. It is posted here by permission of Springer for personal use, not for redistribution. The definitive version was published in Lipids 47 (2012): 195-207, doi:10.1007/s11745-011-3624-3.To assess Soxhlet extraction as a method for quantifying fatty acids (FA) of microalgae, crude lipid, FA content from Soxhlet extracts and FA content from in-situ transesterification (ISTE) were compared. In most cases, gravimetric lipid content was considerably greater (up to 7-fold) than the FA content of the crude lipid extract. FA content from Soxhlet lipid extraction and ISTE were similar in 12/18 samples, whereas in 6/18 samples, total FA content from Soxhlet extraction was less than the ISTE procedure. Re-extraction of residual biomass from Soxhlet extraction with ISTE liberated a quantity of FA equivalent to this discrepancy. Employing acid hydrolysis before Soxhlet extraction yielded FA content roughly equivalent to ISTE, indicating that acidic conditions of ISTE are responsible for this observed greater recovery of FA. While crude lipid derived from Soxhlet extraction was not a useful proxy for FA content for the species tested, it is effective in most strains at extracting total saponifiable lipid. Lipid class analysis showed the source of FA was primarily polar lipids in most samples (12/18 lipid extracts contained 15%). This investigation confirms the usefulness of ISTE, reveals limitations of gravimetric methods for projecting biodiesel potential of microalgae, and reinforces the need for intelligent screening using both FA and lipid class analysis.2012-11-0
