  • Bond Basics: What Are Bonds?
    Bond Basics: What Are Bonds? Have you ever borrowed money? Of course you have! Whether we hit our parents up for a few bucks to buy candy as children or asked the bank for a mortgage, most of us have borrowed money at some point in our lives. Just as people need money, so do companies and governments. A company needs funds to expand into new markets, while governments need money for everything from infrastructure to social programs. The problem large organizations run into is that they typically need far more money than the average bank can provide. The solution is to raise money by issuing bonds (or other debt instruments) to a public market. Thousands of investors then each lend a portion of the capital needed. Really, a bond is nothing more than a loan for which you are the lender. The organization that sells a bond is known as the issuer. You can think of a bond as an IOU given by a borrower (the issuer) to a lender (the investor). Of course, nobody would loan his or her hard-earned money for nothing. The issuer of a bond must pay the investor something extra for the privilege of using his or her money. This "extra" comes in the form of interest payments, which are made at a predetermined rate and schedule. The interest rate is often referred to as the coupon. The date on which the issuer has to repay the amount borrowed (known as face value) is called the maturity date. Bonds are known as fixed- income securities because you know the exact amount of cash you'll get back if you hold the security until maturity.

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • Familienmodelle in Video-On-Demand-Serien: Analyse 3 Der Beispiele
    Familienmodelle in Video-on-Demand-Serien: Analyse 3 der Beispiele Das Gesamtbild einer TV-Familie konstituiert sich aus diversen Faktoren. Anhand dieser Faktoren möchte ich den folgenden analytischen Teil strukturieren. Der weitreichenden Analyse meines Korpus geht dabei die exemplarische Analyse der Serie Ozark voran (3.1), die strukturell von der Untersuchung des Korpus abweicht. Zu Beginn der Korpusanalyse sollen die familiären Rollenmuster und geschlechtlichen Konstruktionen analysiert werden, also die Positionen, die eine Figur innerhalb eines Familiengefüges bzw. innerhalb einer familienzentrierten Serienhandlung einnehmen kann (3.2). Dabei unterscheide ich zwischen weibli- chen und männlichen Rollen und thematisiere zudem Bedeutung sowie textinterne Wertung von Rollen, die von heteronormativen Strukturen abweichen. Bezüglich meiner Beispiele bedeutet dies konkret, die Darstellung homo- und transsexueller Charaktere zu untersuchen. Diese Charaktere zählen zwar auch in die Rollenbe- reiche der Mütter, Töchter, Söhne und Väter (und werden in diesem Rahmen auch genannt), nehmen in den analysierten Serien jedoch eine offenkundige Sonder- rolle ein. Ohne dabei in irgendeiner Weise eine ausgrenzende oder abwertende Strategie verfolgen zu wollen, ist dementsprechend eine eigenständige Untersu- chung notwendig. Nach dieser Analyse isolierter Rollen werde ich die möglichen Verhältnisse der Charaktere zueinander untersuchen (3.3). Dies schließt sowohl innerfamiliäre Beziehungen ein als auch Beziehungen von Familienmitgliedern zu außerfamiliären Charakteren. Aus den Beziehungen der Charaktere zueinander ergeben sich diverse Modelle von Familie, die durch die Texte ebenfalls unter- schiedlich gewichtet werden (3.4). Über die Rollen, Beziehungsgeflechte und Elektronisches Zusatzmaterial Die elektronische Version dieses Kapitels enthält Zusatzmaterial, das berechtigten Benutzern zur Verfügung steht https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-658-34766-6_3. © Der/die Autor(en) 2021 89 J.

The set design for the 88th annual production, For the Record, called for a massive 11-foot-diameter rotating globe suspended above the stage and wrapped in the masthead of the show’s fictional newspaper, the Chicago Offering. Northwestern’s set, scenery, and paint shops are located in the Virginia Wadsworth Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts, but Waa-Mu is performed in Cahn Auditorium. How to pull off such a planetary transplant? By deflating Earth. The globe began as a plain white (albeit custom-built) inflatable balloon, but after its initial multisection muslin wrap was created (to determine shrinkage), it was deflated, rigged, reinflated, motorized, map-designed, taped for a paint mask, primed, painted, and unpeeled to reveal computer-generated, to-scale continents.

  • A Feminist Rhetorical Critique of Zombie Apocalypse Television Narrative
    Ohio Communication Journal Volume 52 – October 2014, pp. 64-74 The Walking (Gendered) Dead: A Feminist Rhetorical Critique of Zombie Apocalypse Television Narrative John Greene Michaela D.E. Meyer This essay presents a feminist rhetorical criticism of AMC’s The Walking Dead, exposing how hegemonic gender roles reinforce patriarchy within the series. We connect previous research on horror film and television, particularly in the zombie apocalypse genre, to representations of gender roles in popular culture. Our analysis reveals five categories of gendered representation: sexist rhetoric, division of labor, the role of protector, White male leadership, and the role of the dutiful wife. The Walking Dead narrative features women as incapable of surviving the apocalypse without men, renders them slaves to products of consumption (such as clothing), and ultimately strips them of autonomous decision making. We connect these images to the never-ending process of consumption and creation perpetuated by zombie narratives as representative of our social unease with capitalism, consumerism and its link to gendered identity. Over fifty years after George A. Romero forever changed the horror genre with Night of the Living Dead, 5.3 million viewers watched once again as the dead rose to devour the living in the series premiere of AMC’s The Walking Dead (AMC, 2010). The Walking Dead is one of the most-watched pieces of zombie fiction ever created, and is the first that has been successfully launched on cable television. Robert Kirkman, the creator of the graphic novel series on which the show is based, stated that “it’s something that succeeds in movies all the time, but I don’t think anybody has seen survival horror on TV before” (Stelter, 2010).
