Library of Congress Subject Headings Weekly List 20 (May 20, 2009)
(C) 150 Altars, Rococo [May Subd Geog] [sp2009004994]
450 UF Rococo altars
This somehow seems terribly kitsch to me, like this is what the altar looks like in the Church of Elvis.
(C) 150 Art rejected for exhibition [May Subd Geog] [sp2009004992]
680 Here are entered works on artistic works that are published or exhibited after having previously been refused for exhibition or publication.
450 UF Rejected art works
450 UF Rejections, Artistic (Art rejected for exhibition)
550 BT Art—Exhibitions
Have you ever seen a sadder subject heading? Well, I'm sure you have, but this one is still pretty glum. The warrant is Rejected Collection by Biljana Ciric.
(C) 150 Chocolate milk [May Subd Geog] [sp2009004868]
550 BT Chocolate drinks
550 BT Milk
Okay, I guess chocolate milk is more plentiful than FOUND POETRY and I thank the fine cataloger at Central Washington University for pointing out this heading to the Library of Congress.
150 Elvis Presley impersonators [May Subd Geog] [sp 90005872]
* 550 BT Celebrity impersonators
* 550 BT Entertainers CANCEL
Perhaps because of his bad taste in altars, he's no longer an ENTERTAINER? Or maybe it's that other business known to readers of the Sookie Stackhouse series.
(C) 150 G1 (Smartphone) [Not Subd Geog] [sp2009004812]
450 UF Android G1 (Smartphone)
450 UF Era G1 (Smartphone)
450 UF Google G1 (Smartphone)
450 UF HTC Dream (Smartphone)
450 UF HTC G1 (Smartphone)
450 UF T Mobile G1 (Smartphone)
550 BT Smartphones
Well aren't we Little Miss With It when it comes to technology?
150 Gender in conflict management [May Subd Geog] [sp2009004913]
550 BT Conflict management
I'd personally like to see RTs to SEX DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT, SEX ROLE IN THE WORK ENVIRONMENT, and SEXUAL DIVISION OF LABOR.
150 Jews in opera [Not Subd Geog] [sp2009004826]
680 Here are entered works on the portrayal of Jews in opera.
550 BT Opera
I guess this is the standard syntax? Because it's confusing to me. I would have assumed this was about Jewish people that work in opera.
150 Pluot [May Subd Geog] [sp2009002699]
053 QK495.R78 (Botany)
450 UF Dinosaur egg (Fruit)
450 UF Dinosaur plum
450 UF I.S. plum
450 UF Interspecific plum
550 BT Prunus
550 RT Apricot
550 RT Plum
Really? Cuz aren't APRICOTS and PLUMS like totally different fruits? Still and all, I like the sound of the word PLUOT.
150 Typology (Linguistics) [sp 85139174]
* 550 RT Linguistic universals
Is this heading kind of arousing, or is it just me?
