identifies it as a response to the failure of the 1960’s avant-garde. Second, he examines the resistant strategies performers of the 1980’s employed to deconstruct presence and mount political critique. He focuses mainly on performers Laurie Anderson, Spalding Gray, and The Wooster Group, and secondarily on comedians Andy Kauffman and Sandra Bernhard to illustrate his points. Part I will summarize Auslander’s argument, and Part II will use his insights to discuss Michael Goulish’s book, 39 Microlectures
after another until a good deal or relief was afforded” -Albert Spalding. Spalding had played on the Boston Red Stockings, today’s Red Sox, and pitched game after game and wore out his hands like all other players. So after he left the team, he managed and part owned the Chicago White Stockings, Today’s white Sox. In 1876 Spalding created and started selling the first professional baseball gloves. He sold them at his store, Spalding Sporting Goods, which he had opened earlier in 1876. After he had

These externalities include effects on human health, the environment, climate, subsidies, agriculture as well as reactor accidents and economic effects (Bernal-Agustin & Dufo-Lopez, 2006) (Friedrich & Voss, 1993) (Edkins, Winkler, Marquard, & Spalding-Fecher, 2010). In the uncontrolled market, there is a inclination to produce more energy and produce a larger waste fuel supply than is socially optimal (Aronsson, Backlund, & Lofgren, 1998) therefore economic instruments are necessary to internalize
action. Their past experiences influence their actions and are the cause of their current dilemmas. Past experiences affect our decisions in our future but these experiences do not necessarily cause us to make the right decisions. In Gray’s Anatomy by Spalding Gray, he himself plays all the characters while narrating his own experiences with a Macular Pucker that had developed in his left eye. Throughout the movie he explains his fear of surgery and the lengths to which he went to avoid the surgery. His
Mark was tasked with bringing innovation to the entire museum by the then director Julian Spalding. After an initial start by O’Neil into implementing some of Spalding’s radical innovative ideas, O’Neil was side tracked into a separate project at the St. Mungo’s Museum of Religious Life and Art. The St. Mungo’s work provided some insight and allowed experimentation with some of the innovative ideas Spalding wanted to use at Kelvingrove of using storytelling to organize themes within the museum.
In an age of lost hope, both Lennie and George in Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men and the Spalding Family in Benton’s Places in the heart both hope for a brighter future but their plans are quickly destroyed. Benton and Steinbeck put many references on what could have been if life did not take such a toll on the characters. Tragedy still lurks as hardship destroys the goal of peace and prosperity among the Spalding family, they look back on past events and think of what could have been. For example
In many instances, firms have not considered the impact of their actions on the supply chain and its long-term competitiveness and profitability. According to Wisner et al (2006), the “I win, you lose” silo mentality manifests itself in the form of using cheaper suppliers, paying little attention to the needs of customers, and assigning few resources to new products and service design. Eventually, these firms will create quality, cost, delivery timing, and other customer service problems that are
Unfortunately, at that time there were no balls that fit that idea. In the beginning, players used a basketball; however, the basketball’s heavy weight made the ball go slow in the air. Morgan decided on a different idea instead. Morgan asked A.G. Spalding, and Brothers to make a new ball that would better fit the idea. After
Ethical Violation Paper Ethics is “a branch of philosophy concerned with the study of questions of right and wrong and how we ought to live” (Banks, 2017, p. 4).

My mother always alleged I became a teacher since I loved to chat, but more than that I loved to share. As always, my mother was correct. She believed in me, as well as numerous Tyler ISD teachers (TJ Austin, Bell, Moore, Robert E. Lee) who educated me and for this I will be grateful! It is my longing to believe in my students and encourage them to be the best they can be each day! From my earliest recollections I knew I desired to be a teacher. My bedroom closet served as a one-room school house
From what was just receiving volunteer hours with Rockdale Emergency Relief by graciously assisting with the preparation of 150 sack lunches daily, opened the door of a returned passion. One after another, I was filling multiple brown paper bags with a sandwich, bag of chips, a Capri Sun, and a healthy fruit snack while preparing to make my rounds for delivery to my assigned neighborhoods within Rockdale County. At each stop, I will never forget the innocent face of each child that waited for this
summoned a committee in 1907. Abner Graves stepped before the committee and gave his testimony. In Graves' account of "the first game," the Otsego Academy and Cooperstown's Green's Select School played against one another in 1839. Committeeman Albert G. Spalding, the founder of Spalding's Sporting Goods, favored Graves' declaration and convinced the other committeemen that Graves' account was true. As a result, in 1939, the committee and the State of New York named Cooperstown and Abner Doubleday as the
The Golden Age of Sports Sports were in rising popularity before and throughout the 1920’s. The economy was working astonishingly well, and the common American had substantially more disposable income that they did not have before. This gave numerous people the money to pay for the cost of entertainment services. Baseball was by far largest in popularity, with stars such as Babe Ruth. The 1919 World Series caused much commotion during this time, and slingshotted the popularity of Baseball and subsequently
Politics and Power in Today’s Corporate World An effective organization focuses on strong leadership, power and political issues. These components are critical to creating an organization mindful of values, ethics, culture and innovation. Analyzing the use of power and politics are essential to understanding the behavior of individuals within organizations. There are two sides to power and politics. In one respect power and politics imply the shady side of leadership. However, power and politics
Challenge of the 21st Century: Immigration Reform In 2013, nearly 1.7 million immigrants entered the United States -- a nation built with the blood and sweat of the millions of immigrants who came to it -- in search of a better life, one free from tyranny and oppression. However, only nine hundred thousand of these immigrants entered the country legally, vesting their time and resources into the legal residency “green card” program -- the very first step to full citizenship (Monger). The other seven
Fanon was recognized as the prophet of decolonization on the publication of his monumental study, The Wretched of the Earth; To understand the central thesis in The Wretched of the Earth summed up in a single sentence, ‘The colonized man liberates himself in and through violence’. (Fanon, (1967; 73). One needs to put Fanon’s views in a triple context: that of the history of colonization, of modernist thought on the historical necessity of violence, and of the post-war movement to decolonization
The sport of baseball became a business, causing the sport to evolve into modern baseball. A.G. Spalding, president of the White Stockings “insisted the players be paid like entertainers; he created Spalding Sporting Goods, manufacturing balls, caps, uniforms, and gloves” (Smith, n.d., Baseball as a Business section). Spalding’s creation, gave each team a greater sense of unity; matching uniforms made

Introduction “Get the fundamentals down and the level of everything you do will rise” - Michael Jordan. This is one of my favorite quotes from the “greatest basketball player of all time”. I actually started playing basketball, for two seasons so far. This book is not only about the chronicle of basketball, but will also cover the basics in the game, while it will cease with discovering Michael Jordan and the Portland Trail Blazers. In modern time, basketball is getting more popular and competitive
