The two sentences will be served at the same time. “The offense is of a very seri- ous nature – perhaps one of the more serious crimes this court has seen, involving not only a breach of a person’s safety and security in their own home, but something terrifying, threaten- ing (and) causing physical Tom LaVenture/Daily Globe injuries to the victim of a serious A CITY of Hurley Department of Public Works crew clears snow downtown along U.S. 51 Tuesday morning. nature,” Circuit Judge Michael Pope said, prior to imposing the sentence. “Something that was, frankly, just horrific that these individuals engaged in this type of conduct.” Sheriff says weather warnings Luter pleaded guilty to the two charges in September as part of a plea that had charges of armed robbery, conspiracy to resulted in fewer mishaps commit armed robbery, unlawful imprisonment and possessing a By TOM LAVENTURE storm of Nov. 27-28, he said.

  • Annual Report 2011-2012
    Mater Matters FALL 2012 ANNUAL REPORT 2011-2012 OPENING COMMENTS From the Principal During a recent trip to my ancestral home, Ireland, I visited St. Patrick’s Church in Glenbrohane where my great grandparents were married. This simple country church overlooks a sweeping vista of rolling hills, dotted with sheep and cows belonging to the local farmers. My cousin, Mike Tobin, whispered to me during Mass, “That chalice was the one used at your great grandmother’s wedding. The church has only one, and I am sure that was the one used.” I was distracted during Mass thinking about where John Buckley stood as he watched Ellen Tobin walk down the aisle. How did they meet? What walks did they walk? What dreams did they have for the future? Did they envision what their own life would become — immigrating to America, their future home in Philadelphia? Probably not. What John and Ellen saw was a loom inviting them to weave the fabric of their lives together into a tapestry they would never see completed. And that is the story for all of our ancestors — they weave, they make their contribution, and then they turn it over to successive generations. Catherine McAuley had the same experience. She never intended to start a religious congregation. She was advised, however, that if she wanted her work to have longevity, she needed to turn her House of Mercy into a convent. Although she opened many convents with schools and safe houses, she did not live long enough to see the tapestry of Mercy life in the United States.

  • Appraisals and Critical Discourse Analysis in “Baby Shark” Song Lyric
    CLLT 2017 Conference on Language and Language Teaching APPRAISALS AND CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS IN “BABY SHARK” SONG LYRIC Muhammad Arif [email protected] Yogyakarta State University Indonesia Abstract This research aims to analyze a phenomenal song entitled “Baby Shark” which is composed by the Pinkfong education brand, a South Korean media startup. The song has become viral over children and even the adults. It is undertaken to find out; the composer’s attitudes, the social relation among the participants, the context of the situation, and the power relation in the discourse. The object of the study is obtained from the whole lyric. Then it is analyzed through Appraisals and Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) by connecting every single line to the intentional marketing and social context in Indonesia. Finally, the conclusion shows that 1) the composer describes wild animal habits, in this case; the shark, 2) they also supports the representation of the shark family, 3) they explicitly describes what was happen when you faces wild animal and the preventive act to solve it, 4) the song is only a children song which develop their fine motor skills as they have fun, and 5) the song intends to promote and gain support for worldwide costumers through this song. Keywords: Baby Shark, Song, Lyric, Appraisals, Critical Discourse Analysis Introduction The “Baby Shark” series, launched in late 2015, started going viral on YouTube last year, and became the company’s most popular series with 700 million views by July 2017.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Gendering Trauma and Healing in a Post­ Conflict Environment: Las Dignas, Mental Health, and the Empowerment of Salvadoran Women A dissertation presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Massey University, Turitea Campus, Palmerston N01th, New Zealand Helen Margaret Leslie 1999 11 Abstract There is no doubt that the experience of war, be it war between nation states or civil war, varies considerably for both male and females. The twelve year civil war in El Salvador was no exception. Salvadoran women who worked in various sectors as combatants, urban collaborators, home-makers, nurses, cooks or radio operators for the guerrilla fo rces, experienced the war and now experience so-called peace, in ways that relate directly to the construction of the fe male sex in Salvadoran society. As a result of these gendered experiences many Salvadoran women are suffering trauma despite the cessation of the war in 1992. This trauma acts to disempower these women and to prevent them from actively participating in the important processes of post-conflict reconstruction currently taking place in Salvadoran society This thesis aims to analyse the approach taken by one Salvadoran organisation fo r fe minist political action, Las Dignas, in healing the trauma of Salvadoran women. Reviewing relevant literature on gender and development theory and gender and conflict theory, and drawing on fe minist methods in the fieldwork context, it will show how the healing process employed by Las Dignas is empowering Salvadoran women at both personal and socio-political levels.
