When does a few ounces of hair come to feel like the weight of the world? When an employer fires a black woman for wearing a cultural hairstyle that is "unprofessional", and she has to go to court to plead for her job. When she's with her man, and the moment she's supposed to let loose, she stops to secure her head scarf so he won't disturb the 'do. Tenderheaded? Definitely. All black women are, in one way or another. Featuring an extraordinary gathering of writers, performers and social luminaries such as Angela Davis, Tony Morrison, Henry Louis Gates Jr., Alice Walker, bell hooks and many others, this unforgettable anthology boldly breaks new cultural ground with straightforward talk about black women and their hair.

This book aims first to prove the local Langlands conjecture for GLn over a p-adic field and, second, to identify the action of the decomposition group at a prime of bad reduction on the l-adic cohomology of the "simple" Shimura varieties. These two problems go hand in hand. The results represent a major advance in algebraic number theory, finally proving the conjecture first proposed in Langlands's 1969 Washington lecture as a non-abelian generalization of local class field theory. The local Langlands conjecture for GLn(K), where K is a p-adic field, asserts the existence of a correspondence, with certain formal properties, relating n-dimensional representations of the Galois group of K with the representation theory of the locally compact group GLn(K). This book constructs a candidate for such a local Langlands correspondence on the vanishing cycles attached to the bad reduction over the integer ring of K of a certain family of Shimura varieties. And it proves that this is roughly compatible with the global Galois correspondence realized on the cohomology of the same Shimura varieties. The local Langlands conjecture is obtained as a corollary. Certain techniques developed in this book should extend to more general Shimura varieties, providing new instances of the local Langlands conjecture. Moreover, the geometry of the special fibers is strictly analogous to that of Shimura curves and can be expected to have applications to a variety of questions in number theory.

The emergence and impact of the modern term limits movement is a unique story of political development and transformation. Despite its significant impact on politics and policy making, the 1990s implementation of term limits at the state level has received limited scholarly attention. This book, divided in two parts, presents an overview and detailed analysis of the origins and effects of the movement. The first part analyzes the political concept of term limits and its theoretical foundations. The second part focuses on the modern process of implementation at the state level. Term Limits will be of significant interest to leglislators, government officials, lobbyists, members of the judicial branch of state government and anyone who seeks an explication of this movement within its full political, economic, judicial, and historical context.

Knowing about horse conformation, movement and soundness is important to any horse owner, whether you are selecting a horse, judging horses, or evaluating a horse's strengths, weaknessess, and ultimate potential. The USPC Guide to Conformation, Movement and Soundness clearly explains and illustrates good, functional conformation and movement, faulty movement, conformation defects, blemishes and unsoundnesses, their causes, and how they affect the horse. This guide will be helpful to Pony Club and 4-H members, instructors, horse owners, and anyone interested in learning about evalulating horses' conformation, soundness and way of moving.The Howell Equestrian Library

Longeing and ground training are an important part of horsemanship, both in training the horse and in the education of the rider. This book explains the principles of handling and training horses safely from the ground, including leading, teaching good ground manners, and preparation for longeing. It provides an introduction to longeing, equipment, techniques, and longeing for various purposes, including longeing to improve the horse's movement and longeing the rider. Because longeing is an activity that requires skill, knowledge, and safe techniques, The USPC Guide to Longeing and Ground Training is essential to understanding what you will need, what to do, and how long to do it safely for yourself and your horse. This guide can be used by Pony Clubbers, instructors, and all horse owners who want to learn about longeing and how to use this technique safely to benefit their horses' training.The Howell Equestrian Library

The 1995 Annual reflects a wide range of work on serial publication, addressed chronologically, geographically, and theoretically. It spans the period from 1700 through the 1970s and has a distinct international dimension showing how serial publication both followed the expansion of international trade and how it served as one of the sinews that bound together all of the different cultural elements comprising the expanding global economic network. This 1995 Annual volume, edited by Michael Harris and Tom O'Malley, represents the continuation of the Journal of Newspaper and Periodical History. As with previous volumes, this work continues to offer important studies about the history of newspapers and periodicals around the world.

This second annual review of international newspaper and periodical history is a further continuation of the Journal of Newspaper and Periodical History. Michael Harris and Tom O'Malley have brought together a broad collection of perspectives about newspaper and periodical reporting from the 17th to 20th centuries. This annual also describes important sources, gives a succinct annual review of newspaper history, and reviews noteworthy new books in newspaper and periodical history. It is an essential source for historians and teachers of media and communications courses.This volume discusses 17th-century newsbooks, Walpole's management of political opinion, publication of the Universal Museum about booksellers, and reports on a treason trial in the 18th century. The annual goes on to analyze how the British press was Americanized from 1830 to 1914, analyzes the Dreyfus case in ^Le Matin as well as newspaper-reading by British forces in World War I. This annual also describes important sources, gives a succinct annual review of newspaper history, and reviews noteworthy new books in newspaper and periodical history. It is an essential source for historians and teachers of media and communications courses.
