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. In solidarity and support, Megan Abbott (DARE ME) Chris Abbott (LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE; CAGNEY AND LACEY; MAGNUM, PI; HIGH SIERRA SEARCH AND RESCUE; DR.

Models of Time Travel
MODELS OF TIME TRAVEL A COMPARATIVE STUDY USING FILMS Guy Roland Micklethwait A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July 2012 National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science ANU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences APPENDIX I: FILMS REVIEWED Each of the following film reviews has been reduced to two pages. The first page of each of each review is objective; it includes factual information about the film and a synopsis not of the plot, but of how temporal phenomena were treated in the plot. The second page of the review is subjective; it includes the genre where I placed the film, my general comments and then a brief discussion about which model of time I felt was being used and why. It finishes with a diagrammatic representation of the timeline used in the film. Note that if a film has only one diagram, it is because the different journeys are using the same model of time in the same way. Sometimes several journeys are made. The present moment on any timeline is always taken at the start point of the first time travel journey, which is placed at the origin of the graph. The blue lines with arrows show where the time traveller’s trip began and ended. They can also be used to show how information is transmitted from one point on the timeline to another. When choosing a model of time for a particular film, I am not looking at what happened in the plot, but rather the type of timeline used in the film to describe the possible outcomes, as opposed to what happened. -

After seeing the brief pilot, Fox ex- ecutives green-lighted the series. Says Sandy Grushow, president of 20th Century Fox Television, “Th at the network ordered a series off of eight minutes of fi lm is just testimony to how powerful those eight minutes were. Th ere are very few people in their early 20’s who have ever created a television series.”20 Family Guy made its debut on network television on January 31, 1999—right after Fox’s telecast of the Super Bowl. Th e show import- ed the Life of Larry and Larry & Steve dynamic of a bumbling dog owner and his pet (renamed Peter Griffi n and Brian, respectively) and expanded the supporting family to include wife, Lois; older sis- ter, Meg; middle child, Chris; and baby, Stewie. Th e audience for the Family Guy debut was recorded at 22 million. Given the size of the audience, Fox believed MacFarlane had produced a hit and off ered him $1 million a year to continue production. -

Blunt Talk "Through Troubles and Into More Troubles - That's My Motto!"
BLUNT TALK "THROUGH TROUBLES AND INTO MORE TROUBLES - THAT'S MY MOTTO!" Written by Jonathan Ames April 10, 2104 EXECUTIVE PRODUCERS Seth MacFarlane Patrick Stewart Jonathan Ames INT. SUNSET TOWER HOTEL, BAR -- NIGHT WALTER BLUNT, in an elegant sport coat, sits at the bar, staring straight ahead. He is troubled. A nearly empty * whiskey is in his hand. The bar-tender, STAN (50’s) comes * over, refills Walter’s glass. Stan is an old-fashioned bar- keep: jacket & tie, deferential, thinning hair. Walter looks up as Stan pours. * WALTER Thank you, Stan. You’re too kind. Stan nods, starts to walk off, but Walter sees something in Stan that he hasn’t noticed before and stops him. Also, Walter is drunk and lonely and wants to talk to someone - WALTER (CONT’D) Stan? Has anyone told you that you bare an uncanny resemblance - in profile - to the Duke of Windsor? STAN No, Mr. Blunt. WALTER I’m surprised. You have his mouth. Have you studied that era? Wally Simpson is perhaps the greatest woman of the 20th century. STAN Who - Why is that, Mr. Blunt? WALTER Because she’s an American divorcee who almost became Queen of England! Nearly brought down the whole royal family all by herself. STAN I didn’t know that - WALTER Oh, yes, Edward - the Duke of Windsor - gave up his throne for her. She was strong and he was weak. A total mess. But it was a fascinating and corrupt time. They were friends with Jimmy Donahue, the Woolworth heir, and he was an erratic homosexual. -
