    QUT Digital Repository: http://eprints.qut.edu.au/ McKee, Alan (2004) Views On Happiness In The Television Series Ally Mcbeal: The Philosophy Of David E. Kelley. Journal of Happiness Studies 5(4):pp. 385- 411. © Copyright 2004 Springer The original publication is available at SpringerLink http://www.springerlink.com 1 Views on happiness in the television series Ally McBeal: the philosophy of David E Kelley Alan McKee Film and Television Queensland University of Technology Kelvin Grove QLD 4059 Australia [email protected] 2 Abstract This article contributes to our understanding of popular thinking about happiness by exploring the work of David E Kelley, the creator of the television program Ally McBeal and an important philosopher of happiness. Kelley's major points are as follows. He is more ambivalent than is generally the case in popular philosophy about many of the traditional sources of happiness. In regard to the maxim that money can't buy happiness he gives space to characters who assert that there is a relationship between material comfort and happiness, as well as to those that claim the opposite position. He is similarly ambivalent about the relationship between loving relationships and happiness; and friendships and happiness. In relation to these points Kelley is surprisingly principled in citing the sources that he draws upon in his thinking (through intertextual references to genres and texts that have explored these points before him). His most original and interesting contributions to popular discussions of the nature of happiness are twofold. The first is his suggestion that there is a lot to be said for false consciousness.

  • Strategic Performances of Race in African American and Chicana/O Literatures
    Border Crossings: Passing and Other[ed] Strategic Performances of Race in African American and Chicana/o Literatures Melanie A. Hernandez A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Sonnet Retman, Chair Michelle Habell-Pallán Habiba Ibrahim Program Authorized to Offer Degree: English Hernandez 2 ©Copyright 2013 Melanie A. Hernandez Hernandez 3 University of Washington Abstract Border Crossings: Passing and Other(ed) Strategic Performances of Race in African American and Chicana/o Literatures Melanie A. Hernandez Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sonnet Retman, Associate Professor Department of American Ethnic Studies This project begins with an analysis of racial passing narratives, and considers the ways that the genre provides a useful deconstructive tool to better understand essence-based productions of race and racial authenticity within Chicana/o assimilation narratives. Through their critical exploration of the performative aspects of race, passing novels expose the fissures within these essentialist logics and in so doing they lodge their protest against the conditions under which passing could occur. I explore the ways that writers and artists have strategically used genre, knowing that readers will approach the text with a set of expectations, only to complicate the narrative while still operating within its formal conventions. This project maps strategic manipulations of genre as the primary tool to produce racial identities or exploit preexisting notions of race and gender with the aim to Hernandez 4 resist marginalization. I focus on the political discursive practices within both genres that judge passing and assimilation at the level of the individual.

  • Design Projects
    UNT College of ENGINEERING Senior Design Day 2018 Department of BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING Senior Design Day 2018 Handheld Endoscope For Delivering Nebulized Lidocaine Team Members: • James Mayo • Vincenzo Kennedy • Namrath Dasyam • Filiberto Aguilar External Sponsors/Mentors: Internal Sponsors/Mentors: • DUALAMS Inc. • John S Houston Abstract: A tracheoscopy is one procedure in which the trachea is examinedusing an endoscope. Typically, a tracheoscopy requires the endoscope to go through the nasal cavity and then the larynx to reach the trachea, where it can be used to administer a local anesthetic. For a typical tracheoscopy, a physician will use a liquid solution of lidocaine as the anesthetic. When this liquid solution is applied to the patient’s larynx, it causes gaging and discomfort resulting in a lengthy procedure time. A method has been developed to circumvent this time and discomfort by using vaporized anesthetic. The vapor lidocaine causes little to no gagging for the patient during theprocedure and results in a shorter procedure time. This method of delivery currently relies on doctors to not only own an endoscope already, but to have an endoscope which includes the necessary adaptor to allow the passage of the nebulized lidocaine. Furthermore, vaporizing lidocaine and delivering it through an endoscope are both very expensive procedures that are performedseparately. By developing an internally powered, portable endoscope that can vaporize and deliver lidocaine, Eagle BioTech hopes to simplify and eliminate the discomfort for trans-nasal and/or per oral vocal anatomy examination procedures. The device will shorten time of procedures while relieving patients from gagging and discomfort. Ideally the device will be sold for under $1000, making it more affordable for local and international markets.

  • Dont Try This at Home Outline and Handouts
    DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME: Why You Should Never Emulate TV Lawyers A One-Hour Webinar Covering: Legal Ethics Presented by: Sean Carter CA Bar# 200356 OVERVIEW Lawyers on our favorite legal dramas - Boston Legal, The Practice, L.A. Law, Ally McBeal, Suits – often act in ways that would cause significant trouble for actual lawyers. In this multimedia webinar, legal humorist Sean Carter will demonstrate some of the worst of TV lawyer behavior through short (30-60 second) video clips from these shows. After each video snippet, he will discuss the precise rule violated and what the lawyer should have done to avoid the ethical violation. While these examples will provide for a more engaging experience for the lawyer attendee, they will also serve as a reminder that our clients are watching these same programs. As a result, they are very often developing an unrealistic view of the role of an attorney and the tactics available to that attorney in the furtherance of the client’s cause. As a result, this webinar will serve as a useful reminder for each attorney to manage the client’s expectations by having candid conversations detailing just what the lawyer can (and more importantly, can NOT) do in the course of the representation. TIMED AGENDA DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME (LEGAL ETHICS) 0:00-0:05 Introduction A. The power and influence of television 1. Legal dramas affect client perceptions 2. Legal dramas affect our perception of our role B. Concerns about the commercialization of law practice 0:05-0:10 Suits A.

INTRODUCTION Not all goodbyes are the same. They reside along a spectrum from "[s]o long, it's been good to know yuh," 2 all the way down to "goodbye and good riddance." It may be a function of the emotional power of Ally McBeal that I did not know what kind of goodbye to give Ally when I sat down to write this article. But I suspected that its goodbye would fall somewhere closer to one of the extremes than to the tepid "so long" middle. During its five-year run,3 Ally generated an unusually high level of emotional response. It is not every television show that makes the cover of Time magazine.4 It is not every television show that is made the poster child for the death of feminism.

He thanked his collaborators, the cast, and the crew. He then deviated from the formula and made this quip: “Thank you to all the straight white guys who dominated movies and TV so hard and for so long that stories about anyone else seem kind of fresh and original now.” Laughter and applause erupted in the Microsoft Theater. The joke succeeded with the audience because they knew it had a grain of truth – that despite the ever-changing American demographic, film and television have still been predominantly white (Smith, 2014).
