Gillian Laub CV 2021
Gillian Laub (b.1975, Chappaqua, New York) is a photographer and filmmaker based in New York. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a degree in comparative literature before studying photography at the International Center of Photography, where her love of visual storytelling and family narratives began. Laub’s first monograph, Testimony (Aperture 2007), began as a response to the media coverage during the second Intifada in the Middle East, and a desire to create a dialogue between apparent enemies. This work is comprised of portraits and testimonies from Israeli Jews, Israeli Arabs, Lebanese, and Palestinians all directly and indirectly affected by the complicated geopolitical context in which they lived. Laub spent over a decade working in Georgia exploring issues of lingering racism in the American South. This work became Laub’s first feature length, directed and produced, documentary film, Southern Rites that premiered on HBO in May 2015. Her monograph, Southern Rites (Damiani, 2015) and travelling exhibition by the same title came out in conjunction with the film and are being used for an educational outreach campaign, in schools and institutions across the country. Southern Rites was named one of the best photo books of 2015 by TIME, Smithsonian, Vogue, LensCulture, and American Photo. It was also nominated for a Lucie award and Humanitas award. "Riveting...In a calm, understated tone, Southern Rites digs deep to expose the roots that have made segregated proms and other affronts possible. Southern Rites is a portrait of the inequities that lead to disaster on the streets of cities like Baltimore and Ferguson, Mo.” - The New York Times Laub has been interviewed on NPR, CNN, MSNBC, Good Morning America, Times Talks and numerous others. -

Theorizing It: Paris Hilton, the Celebutante, and the It Girl Lifestyle
a Theorizing It: Paris Hilton, the Celebutante, and the It Girl Lifestyle Kristin Robbins, Master of Arts in Popular Culture Interdisciplinary MA in Popular Culture Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Popular Culture Faculty of Graduate Studies, Brock University St. Cailiarines, Ontario © October 2008 For all those who consider Paris Hilton a dumb blonde. 11 Abstract This thesis examines the American media's representation of the It Girl through a case study of the celebutante Paris Hilton's lifestyle. Using a combined interpretative and content analysis approach, her wider significance is related to popular discourses surrounding social class mobility. An analysis of the media's framing of her lifestyle in a selection of celebrity and fashion publications reveals that the It Girl can transgress traditional notions of taste as a representation of class. These transgressions are assessed in areas of fashion and etiquette and are regarded as enhancing It-ness. By applying Bourdieu's theory on taste from Distinction, It ness is conceptualized as the highly desirable, media-produced embodiment of Bourdieu's economic, social, and cultural capitals that act as a lifestyle model in American consumerism. As such, the It Girl is not an icon of fixed good taste as the media's characterization of her image suggests; rather she exhibits competing modes of taste (both good and bad taste). In order to maintain her status and position as a taste-maker, the media restore the It Girl's taste through emulation framing and by revaluing (or remarketing) femininity. An analysis of the It Girl provokes a rethinking of traditional ideas about the relationship between American taste and class. -

Label it a triumph of form over function — or part of the continuing push to extend their reach — but designers are increasingly being tapped to create their own phones. The Apple iPhone is proof of the growing demand for stylish handsets from known brands, becoming one of the hottest sellers of the holiday season even as apparel sales — including those of designer labels — lagged.

Can This Dream Be Saved? NEW YORK — Does Fashion Still Have Room for Unbridled fl Ights of Fancy? Let’S Hope So, Despite All Evidence to the Contrary

NEW YORK — Does fashion still have room for unbridled fl ights of fancy? Let’s hope so, despite all evidence to the contrary. On Tuesday, sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy wowed their Rodarte audience with a dazzling display of romantic grandeur and meticulous craft. They swathed their models in chiffon, taffeta and a bower of pink rosettes, each one crafted meticulously by hand — at their Pasadena kitchen table. Whether the Mulleavys will ultimately be able to translate their vision into a commercially viable business — and whether the industry as a whole gets serious about developing a substantial support system to help gifted aspirants — remains to be seen.

But don’t call it the homogenization of malls. It makes Terry Lundgren bristle. “This is not a cookie-cutter deal,” said Lundgren, the chairman, chief executive and president of Federated Department Stores, which orchestrated the nameplate change on Saturday following Federated’s $17 billion acquisition of May last year. “We have tailored the assortments to the individual locations.” Though there are now two Macy’s in 160 or so malls, they are not twins. -

Sanderson Pastor Fecha: 29 de julio de 2019 Trabajo de Fin de Grado de Traducción e Interpretación Estrategias de traducción de elementos culturales específicos opacos en el doblaje al español de la serie Gossip Girl Inés Seller Doménech [email protected] RESUMEN Este trabajo pretende analizar las diferentes técnicas de traducción que se han utilizado en el doblaje al español de los elementos culturales opacos encontrados en las temporadas 1 y 4 de la serie de televisión estadounidense Gossip Girl. La serie está ambientada en el Upper East Side neoyorquino, una escena social en la que los elementos culturales específicos y las referencias intertextuales están presentes en la mayoría de diálogos de los personajes, siempre con el objetivo de recrear un mundo de lujo, glamour y elitismo. El traductor deberá guiarse por las necesidades y expectativas del público meta, y tener en cuenta las restricciones propias de la modalidad del doblaje, dos factores que exigirán de él una gran labor de creatividad. ABSTRACT “Strategies for the translation of opacity in the Spanish dubbing of culture-specific items in Gossip Girl TV series” This study aims to analyse the various translation techniques used in the Spanish dubbing of obscure culture- specific items from seasons 1 and 4 of Gossip Girl TV series.

Mr. Redskin Officially Given His Crown
Are the AP exams necessary? 5 Apple’s iPad: The latest touchable technology 15 Issue 6 The Students’ Newspaper of Neshaminy High School April 30, 2010 2001 Old Lincoln Highway Langhorne, Pa. 19047 www.neshaminy.k12.pa.us/playwickian/ Mr. Redskin offi cially given his crown Nick Patruskey poses with teacher Justin Bursk, after he receives “Best of Show” for his artwork at the BCCC 15th Annual Art Exhibi- tion. Photo/John Patruskey Various art pieces of several Neshaminy students were selected to showcase in Hicks Art Center Gallery at Bucks County Community College. In the 15th Annual Bucks County High School Art Exhibition, senior Nick Patruskey, an advanced art three student, was awarded with “Best of Show” for his original sketch that was displayed in the gallery from April 5-11. On display was his “self-portrait, still life done in pencil.” Patruskey drew insight from his surroundings and environ- ment, and was especially infl uenced by future prospects. “I get my inspiration from everything around me. Whether it be people, places, or life altogether. Also, I am very in- spired by my future and what it holds in store for me,” he said. Neshaminy art teachers collaborated in an effort to choose their preferences for the competition, including Patruskey’s art teacher, Justin Bursk. They selected from fi ve pieces but there was a size requirement for the pieces as well as some additional prerequisites. The art selection needed to be creative and unique, a good example of Kyle O’Donnell waves to the audience, ironically to later be revealed as Neshaminy’s fi rst Mr.
