  • Wednesday 17 June
    Diocese of Aberdeen and Orkney Scottish Episcopal Church Newsletter – Wednesday 17 June 2020 From the Bishop It is expected that the First Minister will announce tomorrow that Scotland is moving into Phase 2 of the easing of coronavirus restrictions. As a consequence from this weekend churches will be able to open for individual prayer, should they wish to do this. The Scottish Episcopal Church issued the guidelines for Phase 2 last week, and we know that across the Province very few of our churches will open. It is clear to us all that the preparations that are needed to open are considerable, and that for each church that opens there will need to be a team of volunteers ready to welcome anyone wanting to come inside to pray. In most places Vestries have responded that they would prefer to wait to consider opening in Phase 3, when collective worship might be allowed. Vestries would prefer to use the next few weeks making preparations for the time when services will be able to take place again. The comment has come to me again and again, that if opening is for individual prayer, then members prefer right now to continue to pray at home. Prayer is of course, taking place in other places, as readers of this newsletter will know. You are indeed praying in your homes, but also while out walking, using the natural world as a prompt and starting point for praise to God. You are praying in your gardens. Some of you are praying outside churches as you walk past them, especially in those places where there is a crucifix (St Margaret’s, Gallowgate) or a statue (St Mary-on-the-Rock).

Under Republican administrations during the 1970s and 1980s, working Americans encountered new financial challenges as the lion’s share of economic growth benefitted the wealthiest citizens. As socially and politically conscious popular music faded in popularity, Stevie Wonder continued to express his concerns about the obstacles to the promise of freedom and equality that many Americans continued to face. This paper examines four songs, written and performed by Wonder - “Living for the City,” “You Haven’t Done Nothing,” “Happy Birthday,” and “It’s Wrong,” - to track the trajectory of his commentary from local, community-based issues to national, political topics and, finally, to international causes.

Glee and Flash Mobs 1 Glee, Flash Mobs, and the Creation of Heightened Realities In May of 2009 the television series Glee (Fox, 2009-2015) made its debut on the Fox network, in the coveted post-American Idol (2002-present) timeslot. Glee was already facing an uphill battle due to its musical theatre genre; the few attempts at a musical television series in the medium’s history, Cop Rock (ABC, 1990) and Viva Laughlin (CBS, 2007) among them, had been overall failures. Yet Glee managed to defeat the odds, earning high ratings in its first two seasons and lasting a total of six. Critics early on attributed Glee’s success to the popularity of the Disney Channel’s television movie High School Musical (2006) and its subsequent sequels, concerts and soundtracks. That alone cannot account for the long-term sensation that Glee became, when one acknowledges that High School Musical was a stand-alone movie (sequels notwithstanding).

    creative brief Project: Scrubs Syndication Create a campaign to inform and intrigue both existing and potential viewers that Scrubs will air five nights a week starting with the beginning of the series. Primary Target: Younger adults ages 16-25 Enjoys sarcastic and random humor. Began viewing simply as a result of its spot in the Thursday night line-up but over the seasons has come to look forward to each week’s episode. About Scrubs: One of NBC’s most successful comedies, in its fifth season. Unique in its dry, sarcastic and random humor, it has been the first NBC show in years to remain a success in the Thursday 8:30pm time slot. Follows the teaching of four medical students and despite the hospital and personal drama which they all encounter, the show remains light-hearted and funny. Promotional Strategy: Attract present viewers to watch the series they love all over again from the beginning Attract potential viewers who may have heard about Scrubs but never got hooked; this is their second chance to watch from the beginning. Stress the comedic factor of the show, as those who are unfamiliar with it may view it as another ER 1. Dr. Cox (walking into his house): Finally, a break from 2.
