STATEWIDE FLEX ALERT ISSUED FRIDAY Edison Urges Customers to Reduce Power ROSEMEAD, Calif., Aug. 9, 2012 — The California Independent System Operator issued a Flex Alert that will begin at 9 a.m. Friday and last through Sunday to urge California businesses, governments and residents to reduce electricity use voluntarily. The request made today, which will remain in effect through 6 p.m. Sunday, was made because of increased demand for electricity due to the heat wave. As California’s power reserves continue to fall and local temperatures rise, the state’s independent system op- erator and Southern California Edison (SCE) are urging customers to reduce their electricity use. Should the situation worsen for any reason and power reserves drop to dangerous levels, the independent sys- tem operator could direct utilities to conduct involuntary rotating outages — for blocks of customers — across their service areas until sufficient reserve levels are achieved. SCE recommends that customers: Set thermostats no lower than 78 degrees. Use electric fans instead of air conditioning when practical. Turn off unused appliances and equipment. Shut off lights when leaving a room. Avoid using evaporative coolers or humidifiers when an air conditioner is running. Operate energy-intensive appliances during early morning or evening hours. Limit the opening and reopening of refrigerators. When possible, businesses should shift power-intensive work processes to off-peak times. For updates, follow SCE on Twitter at www.twitter.com/SCE and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/SCE.

  • Civic Participation Within Postwar Suburban Sitcoms, 1952-1972
    Sitcom Citizenship: Civic Participation within Postwar Suburban Sitcoms, 1952-1972 A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Michael Cheyne IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Kevin Murphy and Laurie Ouellette May 2014 © Michael Cheyne 2014 i Acknowledgements This project would not have been possible without the invaluable assistance of my advisers at the University of Minnesota, Kevin Murphy and Laurie Ouellette, as well as the other members of my thesis committee, Tracey Deutsch and Elaine Tyler May. Through the years of researching and writing, they gave me feedback, guidance, and above all, encouragement. In particular, I thank Kevin, who, as my initial graduate adviser, helped shepherd me through life as a doctoral candidate. I also acknowledge the very helpful feedback provided by my peers in the dissertation writing group led by Kevin Murphy and Regina Kunzel during the 2011- 2013 academic years. Their varied suggestions, praise, and criticism were especially helpful during the formative years of turning years of research into a workable thesis. My fellow graduate students within the American Studies program were unfailing in their personal and professional support. My colleagues at the University of Minnesota-Morris, particularly within the history discipline, were extremely supportive to me during my final two years working on this project. They provided time and funding to assist my research and the presentation of my work. I am particularly thankful for their cheerful willingness to support a colleague during a year of teaching and writing. Finally, I thank my family, friends, and church family, who provided years of love and support while I finished this project.
