Polling and the Public What Every Citizen Should Know
Binding: Paperback
Studio: Congressional Quarterly Books
As you and your students know, public opinion polls are pervasive. And given that interest groups, political parties, candidates, and office holders almost habitually use polls to convince--and sometimes even manipulate--citizens to support their views, their influence over discourse and decision-making should not be underestimated. In an effort to create more informed consumers of public opinion polls, this slim book explains why the wording and ordering of survey questions matter, what determines a representative sample, and how polling methods affect responses. Covering the fundamentals briefly and briskly, Asher also examines how the media report polls, the use of polls in election campaigns, and tricky art of interpreting polls both effectively and responsibly.

Rating: 4.5

Studio: CQ Press, a division of Congressional Quarterly, Inc.
Upon their arrival in Washington D.C., every member of the "freshman class" received a tote bag sporting a picture of the capitol building that contained a three-hundred-plus page document called the 2004 House Manual: New Member Orientation, 109th Congress. This mind-numbing guide details the kinds of expenditures members can and canÂ't be reimbursed for, the kinds of mailings that can and canÂ't be paid for with taxpayer money, the use of various types of office equipment, a section on house rules, and even some rules for ethics. Mr. Schwarz goes to Washington. Enjoy orientation! In this brief, engaging case study, Edward I. Sidlow tells the story of what it takes to make the challenging transition from candidate to newly minted member of Congress. Following the triumphs and trials of candidate and then freshman congressman Joe Schwarz, a moderate Republican from MichiganÂ's 7th district, Sidlow gives students an inside look at Schwarz as he sets up shop on the Hill, gets familiar with the political environment, becomes involved in various policy areas, jockeys for choice committee assignments, develops a "style" that allows him to communicate effectively with other members while staying in touch with constituents at home, and a host of other issues that are central to legislative life. Sidlow uses an appealing first-hand reportorial and narrative style to describe events, while effortlessly incorporating data and information on specific topics from the current literature so that students can see how SchwarzÂ's experience compares with others. With photos and other illustrations from the Schwarz team, Sidlow brings the congressional experience to life.

The General's Daughter: Music From The Motion Picture

The Generals Daughter: Music From The Motion Picture

Amazon.com

This John Travolta-starring military-themed thriller hardly distinguished itself with critics, who almost universally lambasted its overwrought ambience and painfully obvious plot points a whodunit that begged the question "whyd ya make it"? But even the most turgid Hollywood fare can have its delightful musical surprises, and thats where The Generals Daughter redeems itself. Veteran Carter Burwell turns in a brooding orchestral score that finely underplays the histrionics with subtlety and emotional weight. But its Greg Hale Joness ingenious digital reworking of half-century-old Library of Congress remote recordings (made in cotton fields and prisons) of African American folk music and spirituals thats the real revelation here. The opening "Sea Lion Woman" is both haunting and unforgettable, a gratifying reminder that studio alchemy can enhance the humanity of music as well as sublimate it. Minus points for trotting out the cinematically tired Carmina Burana once again its enough to make one want to Orff themselves. --Jerry McCulley

Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :1
Never have I spent so much time on a movie soundtrack. The intro song "She began to Lie" is haunting, and lead to many hours of research on the internet. Check it out. If your into this sort of thing, then I think youll be interested in its origins.

Similarly, "Mighty Good Road" follows the same theme, and both pieces set the flavor for the location and theme of the movie so nicely.

I also finally found the name of a piece of music Ive heard a dozen times in various productions and never knew what it was. O Fortuna. It also has an interesting history.

The entire soundtrack is wonderful and well worth adding to your collection.

Haunting Score

This score is very haunting and just like the movie grips from the very begining and wont let go.

good music
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :2
While nothing in the film works very well except perhaps the chemistry between Travolta and Stowe, the sublime soundtrack is another story. Descriptions such as "haunting" and "soul moving" are right on the money, one might also add ineffable to the list.

Foolish movie. Great soundtrack. Typical Burwell.
Rating Point :4 Helpful Point :8
This movie was quite the pile of dung. But the soundtrack, that MUSIC is so solid that its certainly one of the most ingenious scores in the last decade. Much hype has been ascribed toward the Library of Congress remixes, songs featuring new background beats coupled with pleasant nego-songs (see also Mobys remixes from his Play album for a close comparison). Those songs are the highlight, no question, but Burwells songs are not to be overlooked.

Echoes of Fargo, Hamlet, Barton Fink, and The Man Who Wasnt There are present here, but Burwell isnt a leech when it comes to his music, and he takes a splendind, darker direction with this score than, yes, even Fargo and Hamlet - as dark as those were.

Burwell aficionados wont be disappointed here, neither will fans of darker film scores along the lines of David Julyans Memento, Thomas Newmans Flesh and Bone, and especially Philip Glass Fog of War.

Excellent music when I heard the CD I could easily remember the scenes in the film. The music is very moving. It fits the army theme without all the gungho drums and bugles. some how it made me think how unfeeling and sinister the army can be. I feel this music cannot fail to move anyone who has seen the film. Excellent.

Album Description

"These songs belong to the musical tradition which Africans brought to the New World, but they are also as American as the Mississippi River. They were born out of the very rock and earth of this country, as black hands broke the soil, moved, reformed it, and rivers of stinging sweat poured upon the land under the blazing heat of Southern skies, and are mounted upon the passion that this struggle with nature brought forth. They tell us the story of the slave gang, the sharecropper system, the lawless work camp, the chain gang, the pen." --Alan Lomax

Customer ReviewsOne of the great documents of American music.
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :15
Words fail to describe this incredibly powerful album. Ive had a copy since the 60s, and still have an unopened LP copy in my "vault" (along with the first Roberty Johnson LP). Luckily, I dont have to describe the power of the music - you can click on the samples, and hear for yourself.

Reams of praise have been heaped on this album, and every word has been an understatement.

If you have any interest whatever in American folk music or in blues or jazz, you either have a copy of this or should get one. This is the absolute peak of Lomaxs years of collecting.

Incredibly clean sound for the 40s, all well recorded, musically superb pieces, each a perfect gem of its kind, preserving some of the oldest and best of American music, done by some of the finest singers youve never heard of.

You will listen to this again and again.

I was blown away when I listened to this CD for the first time. The recording is great. I didnt expect too much due to the time frame of the recording, but the quality is impressive.

As far as I can tell, the sound is nicer on this release than the old Legacy "Negro Prison Blues and Songs," but unfortunately there are six (really good) tracks at the end of that CD that arent on vol. 1 or 2 in the Rounder set. I think its worth it to get the older Legacy release, and then vol.2 from Rounder to have it all. These are astounding compilations.

Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :7
I really had no idea what i was in store for. But for those who love black, southern and prison history, spirituals, and are thirsting for music in its purest form, buy this CD!!! It has wonderful chants, commentary from Lomax, narrative from the inmatesand even clanking from the axes. You can hear the suffering and longing in their voices. You can hear the humor in may of the lyrics. Be sure to read the booklet so that you can get a clearer understanding of it all. It is a wonderful piece of recorded history. you may also want to buy the book Worse than Slavery, by Oshinsky so that you can get greater sense of exactly waht they are thinking about. One more thing..You will totally feel the energy of 22.

I have spent a fair amount of time recently reviewing, individually and on various artist compilations, performers from the 1960s urban folk revival. You know Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Dave Van Ronk, Eric Von Schmidt and the like. I have also reviewed the earlier performers who influenced them on the more traditional folk side like Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. There was another component of that search for roots that entailed heading south to the Mississippi Delta, the Georgia Sea Islands, and the hills and hollows of Southern Appalachia to get religion on the rural roots musical scene.

I mentioned in a review of the performers who influenced the 1960s urban folk scene that those efforts did not fall from the sky but had been transmitted by earlier performers. That, my friends, applies as well to the search for roots music. I also mentioned that we all, later when we understood things better, appreciated that John and Allan Lomax (here in this many-volumed series carrying on his fathers work in the late 1950s) did yeomens service to roots music by their travels into the hinterlands in the 1930s and 1940s (and had Pete Seeger tag along for a year and thus serve as a little transmission belt to the latter generation) to find blues, mountain music and other types of American traditional music. Most of us got our country blues infusion second-hand through our addiction to local coffeehouses and the performers who provided us entertainment. The performers we listened to, in turn, learned their material from the masters who populate this CD.

This CD contains a nice assortment of Georgia Sea Island tunes, wage work songs, prisoner work songs and some of the most interesting simple religious music I have heard in a while. I would note in regard to that last point the version of "Beulah Land" done by John Davis and Bessie Jones (who also stands out on other selections here) Sidney Carters "Pharaoh" and, by far my favorite, The Thornton Old Regular Baptist Church Congregations "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah". A few centuries ago during the Protestant Reformation or a little later during the English Revolution in England I would have heartily joined in on this one.

Truth be told this disc is not for everyone and I hope that this description will help those interested in hearing the ancestors of many major music forms find a good listen. Alan Lomax made an attempt to record the provincial musical styles in their home and on the participants own terms. What you get are real individuals singing and playing instruments for reasons that no longer exist today to pass the day at work, to pass along local stories and traditions, to pass the time in jail, to provide expression for small communities, and to praise their gods where the lived and breathed. There was not a dollar to be made for any performance on this disc, and though we pay to hear it now, it had an effect on the musicians and singers. This music is not polished but it is a fantastic cd based on its content and not its production value. You wont hear music like this often in your life.

Music from the heart
Rating Point :5 Helpful Point :10
Ive played this CD over and over and still love every minute of it. The music is so varied, so beautiful. I now want to get other albums recorded by Alan Lomax, a genius for recognizing and recording great music. Highly recommended for anyone who loves uncommercial melodies and pure voices.
