  • The Simpsons Tapped out - Analysis and Proposed Events Overview

    The Simpsons Tapped out - Analysis and Proposed Events Overview

    The Simpsons Tapped Out - Analysis and Proposed Events Overview Players like myself have faithfully enjoyed The Simpsons Tapped Out (TSTO) for several years. The developers have continued to expand the game and provide updates in response to player feedback. This has been evident in tools such as the IRS Building tap radius, the Introduction Unemployment Office Job Manager and the Cut & Paste feature, all of which are greatly appreciated by players and have extended the playability of TSTO for many of us who would have otherwise found the game too tedious to continue once their Springfields grew so large. Notably, as respects Events, positive reactive efforts were identifiable in the 2017 Winter Event and the modified use of craft currency. As evident from the forums, many dedicated and heavily-invested players have grown tired with some of TSTO's stale mechanics and gameplay, as well as the proliferation of uninspired content, much of which has little to no place in Springfield, if even the world of "The Simpsons." This Premise player attitude is often displayed in the later stages of major Events as players begin to sense monotony due to a lack in changes throughout an Event, resulting in a feeling that one is merely grinding through the game to stock up on largely unwanted Items. Content-driven major Events geared toward "The Simpsons" version of Springfield with changes of pace, more like mini-Events, and the Solution addition of new Effects, enabling a variety of looks while injecting a new degree of both familiarity and customization for players. The proposed Events and gameplay changes are steeped in canonical content rather than original content.

  • Understanding Satire with the Simpsons

    Understanding Satire with the Simpsons

    Understanding Satire with The Simpsons A qualitative study on providing information and knowledge through animated television Förstå Satir med The Simpsons En kvalitativ studie om att erbjuda information och kunskap via animerade Tv- program Carl-Filip Florberger & Niklas Lundborg Faculty of Humanities and Social Science Media and Communication: Communication and Global Media Undergraduate thesis: 15 HEC Examiner: Charu Uppal 2014-05-27 Abstrakt Satir är en form av humor som används för att kritisera samhället och förlöjliga de som styr genom ironi, överdrifter och humor. Det som skiljer satir från andra former av social och politisk protest är att den använder sig av just humor för att ändra mänskligt beteende. Med vår studie frågar vi oss om man kan använda satir för att sprida information och kunskap via ett animerat underhållningsprogram som The Simpsons. Vår huvudfrågeställning är: Kan publiken av The Simpsons ta åt sig information och kunskap inom programmets underhållningskontext samt via dess användning av satir? För att få svar på detta har vi också använt oss av sekundära frågor såsom: uppfattar och/eller uppskattar personer som tittar på The Simpsons satir? Är animation en lämplig eller olämplig metod för att ta åt sig information? Huvudsyftet med denna studie är att vi är nyfikna på om man enklare kan ta åt sig information och allvarliga ämnen i kombination med humor och underhållning. Vi har valt The Simpsons som undersökningsobjekt eftersom de var dem som startade en ny genre av animerad satirisk komedi på TV. Denna genre är i dagens TV-samhälle väldigt populär och det har skapats nya satiriska succéprogram som Family Guy och South Park som följd av detta.
  • 'I'm Bart Simpson, Who the Hell Are You?

    'I'm Bart Simpson, Who the Hell Are You?

    ‘‘I’m Bart Simpson, who the hell are you?’’ A Study in Postmodern Identity (Re)Construction BRIAN L. OTT Performance – The semiotics of self. (O’Sullivan et al. 222) AM SITTING AT MY COMPUTER MULLING OVER THE THREE OR FOUR acceptable conventions for beginning a scholarly article under Ithe watchful eye of my Bart Simpson doll perched amid my media theory books on the shelf just above me. I carefully reach for the bright yellow and blue plastic toyFa gift from an old friend, former colleague, and fellow Simpson fanatic several years agoFand gently tug at the tiny white cord protruding from its back. Without hesitation, Bart comes alive, impertinently inquiring, ‘‘I’m Bart Simpson, who the hell are you?’’ At the request of this great cultural icon and postmodern philosopher, I pause to consider who the hell I am, and what, if anything, it has to do with the doll I now hold in my hands. We are frequently, of course, told in a media-laden landscape that identity is closely tied to the active consumption of products offered by the media and leisure industries (Kellner 231–62; Featherstone). That I proudly display the Bart doll in my office, along with a host of other Simpson-related merchandise, does seem to suggest that I desire others to read and mark me as a Simpson fan. Continuing to reflect on my sense of self, I decide that the form of Bart’s question, like the doll itself, is also instructive, as it alludes to a fundamental feature of The Journal of Popular Culture, Vol.

    "Fifth Beatle" Syndrome: Practical Solutions to Minimizing Joint Inventorship Exposure, 6 J. Marshall

    THE JOHN MARSHALL REVIEW OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY LAW AVOIDING THE "FIFTH BEATLE" SYNDROME: PRACTICAL SOLUTIONS TO MINIMIZING JOINT INVENTORSHIP EXPOSURE ANDREW B. DZEGUZE ABSTRACT Inventorship disputes appear to be proliferating. This is not surprising in light of the 1993 relaxation of the standards for joint inventorship. Although the vast majority of claims fail, the handful of cases indicating successful inventorship claims can be quite lucrative, which makes it reasonable to expect the upward trend in number of cases to continue. Moreover, the lack of clarity on certain key aspects of inventorship law is apt to encourage further claims. This article begins, as a cautionary tale of sorts: an analysis of the unclear aspects of inventorship law. This includes the as yet unresolved variations in caselaw as to the basic standard for inventorship and as a result what can serve as a basis for an inventorship claim and the fact that even under the predominant standard ambiguities exist over what and how a contribution can be adequately shown. It then proceeds to analyze four common situations that can present inventorship problems, and suggests practical steps to minimize exposure and create a solid documentary record to defeat any later inventorship claims.

    美國影集的字彙涵蓋量 語料庫分析 the Vocabulary Coverage in American

    國立臺灣師範大學英語學系 碩 士 論 文 Master’s Thesis Department of English National Taiwan Normal University 美國影集的字彙涵蓋量 語料庫分析 The Vocabulary Coverage in American Television Programs A Corpus-Based Study 指導教授：陳 浩 然 Advisor: Dr. Hao-Jan Chen 研 究 生：周 揚 亭 Yang-Ting Chou 中 華 民 國一百零三年七月 July, 2014 國 立 英 臺 語 灣 師 學 範 系 大 學 103 碩 士 論 文 美 國 影 集 的 字 彙 涵 蓋 量 語 料 庫 分 析 周 揚 亭 中文摘要 身在英語被視為外國語文的環境中，英語學習者很難擁有豐富的目標語言環 境。電視影集因結合語言閱讀與聽力，對英語學習者來說是一種充滿動機的學習 資源，然而少有研究將電視影集視為道地的語言學習教材。許多研究指出媒體素 材有很大的潛力能激發字彙學習，研究者很好奇學習者要學習多少字彙量才能理 解電視影集的內容。 本研究探討理解道地的美國電視影集需要多少字彙涵蓋量 (vocabulary coverage)。研究主要目的為：(1)探討為理解 95%和 98%的美國影集，分別需要 英國國家語料庫彙編而成的字族表(the BNC word lists)和匯編英國國家語料庫 (BNC)與美國當代英語語料庫(COCA)的字族表多少的字彙量；(2)探討為理解 95%和 98%的美國影集，不同的電視影集類型需要的字彙量；(3)分析出現在美國 影集卻未列在字族表的字彙，並比較兩個字族表(the BNC word lists and the BNC/COCA word lists)的異同。 研究者蒐集六十部美國影集，包含 7,279 集，31,323,019 字，並運用 Range 分析理解美國影集需要分別兩個字族表的字彙量。透過語料庫的分析，本研究進 一步比較兩個字族表在美國影集字彙涵蓋量的異同。 研究結果顯示，加上專有名詞(proper nouns)和邊際詞彙(marginal words)，英 國國家語料庫字族表需 2,000 至 7,000 字族(word family)，以達到 95%的字彙涵 蓋量；至於英國國家語料庫加上美國當代英語語料庫則需 2,000 至 6,000 字族。 i 若須達到 98%的字彙涵蓋量，兩個字族表都需要 5,000 以上的字族。 第二，有研究表示，適當的文本理解需要 95%的字彙涵蓋量 (Laufer, 1989; Rodgers & Webb, 2011; Webb, 2010a, 2010b, 2010c; Webb & Rodgers, 2010a, 2010b)，為達 95%的字彙涵蓋量，本研究指出連續劇情類(serial drama)和連續超 自然劇情類(serial supernatural drama)需要的字彙量最少；程序類(procedurals)和連 續醫學劇情類(serial medical drama)最具有挑戰性，因為所需的字彙量最多；而情 境喜劇(sitcoms)所需的字彙量差異最大。 第三，美國影集內出現卻未列在字族表的字會大致上可分為四種：(1)專有 名詞；(2)邊際詞彙；(3)顯而易見的混合字(compounds)；(4)縮寫。這兩個字族表 基本上包含完整的字彙，但是本研究顯示語言字彙不斷的更新，新的造字像是臉 書(Facebook)並沒有被列在字族表。 本研究也整理出兩個字族表在美國影集字彙涵蓋量的異同。為達 95%字彙涵 蓋量，英國國家語料庫的 4,000 字族加上專有名詞和邊際詞彙的知識才足夠；而 英國國家語料庫合併美國當代英語語料庫加上專有名詞和邊際詞彙的知識只需 3,000 字族即可達到 95%字彙涵蓋量。另外，為達 98%字彙涵蓋量，兩個語料庫 合併的字族表加上專有名詞和邊際詞彙的知識需要 10,000 字族；英國國家語料 庫字族表則無法提供足以理解 98%美國影集的字彙量。 本研究結果顯示，為了能夠適當的理解美國影集內容，3,000 字族加上專有 名詞和邊際詞彙的知識是必要的。字彙涵蓋量為理解美國影集的重要指標之一， ii 而且字彙涵蓋量能協助挑選適合學習者的教材，以達到更有效的電視影集語言教 學。 關鍵字：字彙涵蓋量、語料庫分析、第二語言字彙學習、美國電視影集 iii ABSTRACT In EFL context, learners of English are hardly exposed to ample language input.
  • Homer Simpson: Homophobic Hero?

    Homer Simpson: Homophobic Hero?

    Homer Simpson: Homophobic Hero? Denise Du Vernay Recently, a man I’d just met said to me, “men are so ugly. I don’t know how you women can put up with us, let alone sleep with us.” I told him that I’ve wondered the same thing all too often. American men seem to embrace the unattractive stereotype of the simple male, from the irritating Belushi character in According to Jim , to the myriad husbands who are less attractive than their wives ( Cougar Town , Family Guy , King of Queens ) to the borderline offensiveness of The Man Show . Homer Simpson, however, is America’s favorite homophobic, simple, lazy, ignorant, overweight buffoon. But why would America have a favorite any of the above? Shouldn’t American men be offended that they are habitually portrayed as dimwitted and utterly helpless without their wives? The ignorant, ball- scratching, balding husband is no new character to American sitcoms, but he is not appealing in the way that Homer Simpson is. I find it subversive that Homer displays all of the above unsavory characteristics, but yet he is still loveable. Al Bundy, Mr. Roper, and Archie Bunker all predate Homer, and while it can be argued that all four of these men are not good enough for their wives, not one of these characters could be considered likeable besides Homer. The laughter and applause was obviously canned when Al would put his hands in his pants or when Stanley would burn Helen with one of his harsh verbal zingers, but the audience genuinely wants Homer to succeed and to be happy.
