One of his teams won 5th place by winning 5 out of the 6 rounds and earning 426 points. The compeition was very intense and for the first half of the day East Aurora was vying for first place against Clarence and Allendale (near Rochester).

Hockey for Hunger The faculty of East Aurora Schools faced each other in this year's faculty hockey game on April 1st. The event was to raise money and canned goods for Fish and the Food Bank of Western New York. Thousands of cans were raised throughout the district, as well as over $5,000. The money was raised through ticket sales and t-shirt sales, as well as proceeds from the concession stand, run by East Aurora Middle School's Spirit Club and a change drive run by East Aurora Middle School's DECA. The event featured several EAMS faculty members playing hockey or cheerleading. The Middle School team lost to the High School in their first game 4-2. In the consolation game, the Middle School fell to Parkdale in a shootout 4-3. Submitted by Tony Ambrose, Social Studies Teacher, MS & HS EAMS Page 8.

LONG SUMMARY Molly Shannon plays Emily Dickinson in the dramatic comedy "​ Wild Nights with Emily​." The poet’s persona, popularized since her death, became that of a reclusive spinster – a delicate wallflower, too sensitive for this world. This film explores her vivacious, irreverent side that was covered up for years — most notably Emily’s lifelong romantic relationship with another woman (Susan Ziegler). After Emily died, a rivalry emerged when her brother's mistress (Amy Seimetz) along with editor T.W.

  • The Musical Number and the Sitcom
    ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 5 Issue 1 (Spring 2003) It May Look Like a Living Room…: The Musical Number and the Sitcom By Robin Stilwell Georgetown University 1. They are images firmly established in the common television consciousness of most Americans: Lucy and Ethel stuffing chocolates in their mouths and clothing as they fall hopelessly behind at a confectionary conveyor belt, a sunburned Lucy trying to model a tweed suit, Lucy getting soused on Vitameatavegemin on live television—classic slapstick moments. But what was I Love Lucy about? It was about Lucy trying to “get in the show,” meaning her husband’s nightclub act in the first instance, and, in a pinch, anything else even remotely resembling show business. In The Dick Van Dyke Show, Rob Petrie is also in show business, and though his wife, Laura, shows no real desire to “get in the show,” Mary Tyler Moore is given ample opportunity to display her not-insignificant talent for singing and dancing—as are the other cast members—usually in the Petries’ living room. The idealized family home is transformed into, or rather revealed to be, a space of display and performance. 2. These shows, two of the most enduring situation comedies (“sitcoms”) in American television history, feature musical numbers in many episodes. The musical number in television situation comedy is a perhaps surprisingly prevalent phenomenon. In her introduction to genre studies, Jane Feuer uses the example of Indians in Westerns as the sort of surface element that might belong to a genre, even though not every example of the genre might exhibit that element: not every Western has Indians, but Indians are still paradigmatic of the genre (Feuer, “Genre Study” 139).

  • Arab-American Media Bringing News to a Diverse Community
    November 28, 2012 Arab-American Media Bringing News to a Diverse Community FOR FURTHER INFORMATION: Tom Rosenstiel, Director Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism Amy Mitchell, Deputy Director, Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism (202) 419-3650 1615 L St, N.W., Suite 700 Washington, D.C. 20036 www.journalism.org Arab-American Media: Bringing News to a Diverse Community Overview If it were just a matter of population growth, the story of the Arab-American media would be a simple tale of opportunity. Over the last decade, Arab Americans have become one of the fastest growing ethnic groups in the United States. But the story of the media trying to serve that audience is more complicated than that: The Arab-American population across the United States is ethnically diverse. Arab-American media are being buffeted by the same technology and economic trends as the news media generally, as well as a more challenging advertising market. And, advancements in technology have brought new competition from Arab outlets located in the Middle East and North Africa. Overall, the current Arab-American news media are relatively young. Newspapers and news websites are currently the most prominent sector, with much of the coverage focused on community news and events. There is also coverage at the national level, though, and recently, the Arab uprisings have given rise to more international coverage of news from “back home.” A number of papers are seeing rising circulation. Some new publications have even launched. However, most papers are still struggling to recover financially from the economic recession of 2007 and at the same time keep up with the trends in digital technology and social media.

  • This Is a Test
    ‘FIXING PETE’ CAST BIOS BROOKE BURNS (Ashley) – Brooke Burns, host of Oxygen Network‘s ―Hair Battle Spectacular,‖ was born in Dallas, TX. The middle child of three siblings, her mother encouraged her from a young age to pursue her dream, which, since kindergarten, was to become a ballerina. As a teenager, she showed great promise as a professional ballet dancer, but her career was abruptly ended at age 14 after a ski accident. She is a natural athlete and a talented swimmer, having been trained by her father, a former national champion swimmer at Southern Methodist University. Burns got into acting in 1996, when she played Peg in the TV series ―Out of the Blue.‖ She went on to guest star in several episodes of ―Ally McBeal‖ and then moved on to play Jessie Owens in ―Baywatch.‖ Burns broke onto the silver screen when she acted opposite Jack Black and Gwyneth Paltrow in ―Shallow Hal.‖ She also played Jan Lambert in ―Single White Female 2: The Psycho‖ alongside Allison Lange and Todd Babcock.

  • The Middle 24-Teilige US-Serie Ab Donnerstag, 1
    13. Januar 2012 The Middle 24-teilige US-Serie Ab Donnerstag, 1. März 2012, 18.40 Uhr Inhalt 2 Für Familienfans und Familienskeptiker Vorwort von Florian Weber und Sebastian Lückel 3 The Middle Stab, Inhalt, Folgeninhalte, Episodenübersicht 14 Biografien 17 Kontakt, Bildhinweis und Impressum 1 13. Januar 2012 Für Familienfans und Familienskeptiker Wenn eine Frau im mittleren Alter in einem Superhelden-Kostüm in einem Maisfeld herumläuft, dann ist das im Normalfall seltsam. Im Fall von "The Middle" ist das aber nicht seltsam, sondern witzig und völlig in Ordnung. Handelt es sich doch um eine waschechte Sitcom, die ihr komödianti- sches Potential nicht selten aus gerade solch ent- und verrückten Situationen zieht. Die Frau im Superhelden-Kostüm heißt Frankie Heck und ist in der Regel, sagen wir mal – ein wenig gestresst. Sie hat einen Job, einen Ehemann, drei Kinder, die alle irgendwo zwischen Früh-, Vor- und Spätpubertät stecken. Kein Wunder, dass Frankie sich auf ihrem neuen Führerschein- foto kaum wiedererkennt und sich fragt, was nur aus der gutaussehenden Frau auf dem alten Führerscheinfoto geworden ist. Gut, wenn dann der Gatte den Unterschied der beiden Fotos so plausibel wie feinsinnig zu er- klären versteht: "Na ja, damals warst du jung und sexy und darauf gespannt, was das Leben dir bringen wird – und jetzt, tja, jetzt weißt du’s." Freunde kann man sich aussuchen, seine Familie bekanntlich nicht. Im Fernsehen ist das zum Glück anders, hier kann man sich seine "TV- Familie" sehr wohl aussuchen – der Fernbedienung sei Dank. Und es gibt gerade im Sitcomgenre einige Fernseh-Familien, die viele Zuschauer – wie ihre eigene Familie – mit all ihren Fehlern und Überspanntheiten ins Herz geschlossen haben.
