A History of Leadville Theater

Opera Houses, Variety Acts and Burlesque Shows

By: Gretchen Scanlon

When the West was wild, the glitziest streets in Colorado ran through Leadville, where opera, variety and burlesque lit up Magic City theaters. Theatrical legends Buffalo Bill and Oscar Wilde graced the Tabor Opera House, while revolutionary Susan B. Anthony reached a rough mining audience from a stage atop a bar. Thomas Kemp spared no expense on the risque Black Crook at the Grand Central Theater, complete with a grand waterfall, a trapdoor and dragons. Follow Leadville historian Gretchen Scanlon through these theatrical glory days, from the glamorous productions and stump speeches to the offstage theft and debauchery that kept the drama going even when the curtain fell.

Because Internet

Understanding the New Rules of Language

By: Gretchen McCulloch

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!! Named a Best Book of 2019 by TIME, Amazon, and The Washington Post A Wired Must-Read Book of Summer “Gretchen McCulloch is the internet’s favorite linguist, and this book is essential reading. Reading her work is like suddenly being able to see the matrix.” —Jonny Sun, author of everyone's a aliebn when ur a aliebn too Because Internet is for anyone who's ever puzzled over how to punctuate a text message or wondered where memes come from. It's the perfect book for understanding how the internet is changing the English language, why that's a good thing, and what our online interactions reveal about who we are. Language is humanity's most spectacular open-source project, and the internet is making our language change faster and in more interesting ways than ever before. Internet conversations are structured by the shape of our apps and platforms, from the grammar of status updates to the protocols of comments and @replies. Linguistically inventive online communities spread new slang and jargon with dizzying speed. What's more, social media is a vast laboratory of unedited, unfiltered words where we can watch language evolve in real time. Even the most absurd-looking slang has genuine patterns behind it. Internet linguist Gretchen McCulloch explores the deep forces that shape human language and influence the way we communicate with one another. She explains how your first social internet experience influences whether you prefer "LOL" or "lol," why ~sparkly tildes~ succeeded where centuries of proposals for irony punctuation had failed, what emoji have in common with physical gestures, and how the artfully disarrayed language of animal memes like lolcats and doggo made them more likely to spread.

Practicing and Leading With Integrity

A comprehensive textbook for athletic training students, educators, and practitioners, Professional Ethics in Athletic Training: Practicing and Leading With Integrity, Second Edition provides a framework for understanding and applying ethical principles across the career span of an athletic training professional. Esteemed authors Gretchen A. Schlabach and Kimberly S. Peer explain the necessity of practicing and leading with integrity across one’s athletic training career. The text explores issues related to cultural competence and professional behavior as well as ethical leadership and decision-making skills that both inform and transcend the athletic training profession. Each chapter is accompanied by frameworks that lead to both analysis and awareness of legal statutes, ethical principles, regulatory practice acts, and professional practice standards that encourage responsible reasoning and conduct. Contemporary journal articles can also be found in every chapter to help readers make connections between content and clinical practice. The text also includes assessment tools, sample models for ethical decision making, writing about moral issues, and sample course design and delivery for teaching ethics. Included in the instructor’s materials are nearly 50 cases to promote critical thinking as well as learning activities for each chapter. Included with the text are online supplemental materials for faculty use in the classroom. Covering all levels of ethical practice—from the entry-level student to the experienced athletic trainer—Professional Ethics in Athletic Training synthesizes and integrates ethical theory and practical application for those who practice and lead with integrity.
