Unfortunately for him, Esoteria is not much of a difference. After Hard Justice to get a Hard Justice, Bernard finds a job at E. Despite having a dark theme, Hard Justice still contains plenty Hard Justice DigitalPh33r's trademark humor. Max tells Eddie to steel himself for the coming task. Eddie decides to open the door, but Max tells him "Don't split hairs with me. Why go around something when you can go through it", and blasts open the door with his rocket launcher. Entering the house, Max discovers that the occupant of the house has downloaded three tracks of music, causing Eddie to puke violently. Just then, the occupant of the Hard Justice returns, and he is placed under arrest by Max, who tells him that downloading three tracks is equivalent to killing three Hard Justice. Eddie then fires at the "offender", who flees. Max blows up his car. After failing to catch him, they taser him twice and restrain him. In the Hard Justice, Bernard arrives at Esoteria airport, and after clearing the numerous security checkpoints, getting stopped at each of them Hard Justice being nervous. He sees some job Hard Justice, one for the police force and one Hard Justice a full-time dishwasher at Reggie's bar and grill. Back at the E. T compliments Eddie and Max on their good work at handling a dangerous criminal. The "dangerous criminal" talks to another arrested citizen, who states that his reason for arrest was assault on a police officer. However, this assault was simply Hard Justice at a cent toll booth, and was deemed as "using chemical weapons to avoid paying a cent toll". A call then comes in, for a carjacking outside Reggie's bar and grill. At Reggie's bar and grill, Bernard undergoes an interview for a dishwasher's job, which he Hard Justice unexpectedly denied. Meanwhile, a citizen is carjacked right outside the bar. As he screams for help, the carjacker keeps crashing while trying to turn the car. The victim then explains to the carjacked that his hideout was the other way. Fortunately, Bernard walks out of Reggie's right that moment and jacks the carjacker, then incapacitates him. The grateful citizen thanks Bernard and leaves. As he leaves, Eddie and Max arrive. Max prepares to blast the leaving car with his rocket launcher, but Bernard shoves him aside, causing him to miss. After explaining the situation, Max is unable to comprehend, and tells Eddie to "Taser everyone", which Eddie does. Upon learning that he is an ex-cop, he tries to persuade Bernard to join the force. Bernard declines, as the main reason he left Regent City in the first place was to avoid contributing to a fascist police state, but he now realizes Esoteria was about the same thing. Bernard then leaves the office. Eddie follows him, and convinces Bernard to give the force a second chance. In the Hard Justice. He skips a homicidal killer chase, an officer's call for rescue after getting stuck under his car on a railway track while pursuing a man driving a tank into a Hard Justice area, and a homicide case, dismissing them all as "petty crimes". He then picks up a case on Washington Avenue, of a person turning his music up way too loud. He dispatches Eddie and Max to deal with it, but as they leave, they bump into Bernard, who came back to the E. Bernard then decides that Max should go to Washington Avenue, while he and Eddie check out the homicide. At the homicide scene, they bump into the house landlord, who tells them that he came in that morning and found the victim with no limbs or head at all. He then asked him for his rent, not realizing he was dead. He called the police only when he didn't respond because he was dead. When asked by Bernard if he realized that the victim was dead and would not respond, he replied "How would I know, I'm not a doctor". Eddie speculates that it was a suicide, but Bernard argues that it would be physically impossible to either a Cut off your legs, one arm, somehow cut off the other arm, and then the head with no limbs at all, or b Cut off your head, then cut off all your limbs without a head. Just then, Bernard is contacted by Howard, who requests him to return to the office. Bernard leaves Eddie to Hard Justice the "stump" of a body while he returns to the office. Eddie asks if he should scan the house for semen, to which Bernard replies "why the hell not? Meanwhile, Max arrives at Washington Avenue, and after hurling a grenade into the occupant's house, he barges in and tells him at rocket-launcher-point to turn his music down. Bernard has to take another driving test. Eddie calls back and tells Bernard that after Hard Justice the body under UV light, he discovered that it was covered with semen. Bernard replies that the body is covered in blood, which shows up under UV light, while semen does not, and puts down Hard Justice. Back at the crime scene, Eddie realizes something, and mutters, "Yep. He's dead. In the morning, Bernard comes in the office, and stumbles Hard Justice Howard, who is begging for gold on Runescape. Annoyed by his stupidity, Bernard asks about Eddie and Max's whereabouts. He then proceeds to the lab, where they are. He discovers that Eddie is also playing Runescape, together with Howard. Max then appears, having got off the phone with his girlfriend. Bernard is extremely annoyed, saying "This department is a fucking Hard Justice show". Eddie tells him to relax. Bernard then states that he had recovered the homicide body the other day, with they had completely forgotten about. Eddie comments on the "suicide". Max informs them that the case was closed with direct orders from the governor. Bernard tells them to identify the body, to which Eddie tells him is impossible, due to the lack of a head. Bernard tells Max to use a DNA test to find out who the person is. Bernard then leaves for his driving test, with Eddie driving him due to Bernard's lack of an Esoteria license. Eddie brags about never getting into an accident in his entire life, and proceeds to smash into an oncoming car at an intersection. They finally arrive at the Esoteria driving center, where Bernard meets the driver again. Bernard questions him on why he is following him, to which the driver responds "I'm a driving instructor, I work here. I have an appointment with someone at one o'clock. Governor Roman Drake contacts Howard and Hard Justice him for his disobedience of a direct order. Roman decides to come over to see Bernard personally. Unfortunately, Bernard is not back from his driving test yet. Meanwhile, Bernard proceeds with the trivial driving test, with the angry driving instructor that he crashed into earlier. After the test, through which Bernard continually insulted him, the instructor reveals that he was the father of the person arrested for downloading three songs in the first episode, and that the Hard Justice of driving Hard Justice "milking people of money" was wrong, as the police Hard Justice had arrested his son for a ridiculous reason and he had to pay his bail. Bernard then tells him that he had left Hard Justice police force once, and that he was different from Eddie and Max. He then gets his license and goes back. At the E. T Office, Bernard is greeted by Hard Justice Drake, who then tells him that if he steps out of line and disobeys Drake's orders again, he will suffer. Drake then leaves. Bernard then confronts Howard, still playing Hard Justice, calling him a "Spineless Hard Justice and telling him that Drake was wasting the unit's time with trivial jobs because he had something to hide, inferring that Drake could be part of Twisted Coercion. The episode begins with Bernard arriving to work; only to find Eddie failing a burnout. Hard Justice explains that he's trying to re-create Hard Justice done on TV. Bernard tells him nobody actually does it, but Eddie tells him, "Oh, it's okay, I've seen it done Hard Justice TV," which makes Bernard angry. A second later, Bernard sees Max crash into Bernard's car. Howard Hard Justice Bernard there are no crimes today, because the radio isn't on, but no crime transmissions show up, so Bernard goes into the lab, and starts up a study on the mutilated body. Eddie comes in and is told by Bernard what he's doing. Eddie reminds him that he isn't supposed to, but they argue. Bernard tells him that whoever did this needs to be stopped, and doesn't care if he tells Howard. Eddie calls Howard to call that him and Bernard are going out to pizza. Howard gets a call that there is a disturbance at the shopping mall.

  • Samoan Submission Machines
    Samoan Submission Machines: Grappling with Representations of Samoan Identity in Professional Wrestling Theo Plothe1 Savannah State University [email protected] Amongst the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. The discussion of Samoan identity in the context of sport has examined Maori identity and masculinity in New Zealand, among other topics, but there has yet to be work which considers Samoans within professional wrestling. This research investigates Samoan identity through a content analysis of televised wrestling matches. This research identifies six primary stereotypes under which Samoan identity is portrayed. These portrayals of Samoan characters, I argue, flatten the representation of this ethnic group within wrestling and culture at large. Keywords: Samoans, identity, representation, gimmicks Introduction Among the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. This research investigates the identity of Samoans within professional wrestling, and the different ways they are constructed and presented to audiences. “Gimmicks,” characters portrayed by a wrestler “resulting in the sum of fictional elements, attire and wrestling ability” (Oliva and Calleja 3) utilized by Samoans have run the gamut from the wild uncivilized savage, to the sumo (both in villainous Japanese and comically absurd iterations), to the ultra-cool mogul who wears silk shirts and fancy shoes. Their ability to cut promos, an important facet of the modern gimmick allowing wrestlers to address their opponents and storylines, varies widely as well, but all lie within their Samoan identity.

  • Movies and Cultural Contradictions
    < I 1976 Movies and Cultural Contradictions FRANK P. TOMASULO In its bicentennial year, the United States was wracked by dis- illusionment and mistrust of the government. The Watergate scandal and the evacuation of Vietnam were still fresh in everyone's mind. Forced to deal with these traumatic events, combined with a lethargic economy (8.5 per- cent unemployment, energy shortages and OPEC price hikes of 5 to 10 per- cent, high inflation (8.7 percent and rising), and the decline of the U.S. dollar on international currency exchanges, the American national psyche suffered from a climate of despair and, in the phrase made famous by new California governor Jerry Brown the previous year, “lowered expectations.” President Gerald R. Ford's WIN (Whip Inflation Now) buttons--did nothing bolster consumer/investor confidence and were widely perceived to be a public rela- tions gimmick to paper over structural difficulties in the financial system. Intractable problems were apparent: stagflation, political paranoia, collective anxiety, widespread alienation, economic privation, inner-city decay, racism, and violence. The federal government's “misery index,” a combination of the unemployment rate and the rate of inflation, peaked at 17 percent. In short, there was a widespread perception that the foundations of the American Dream bad been shattered by years of decline and frustration. Despite these negative economic and social indicators in the material world, the nation went ahead with a major feel-good diversion, the bicen- tennial celebration that featured the greatest maritime spectacle in Ameri- can history: “Operation Sail,” a parade of sixteen “Tall Ships,” fifty-three warships, and more than two hundred smaller sailing vessels in New York harbor.

  • New Insights Into the Phylogenetics and Population Structure of the Prairie Falcon (Falco Mexicanus) Jacqueline M
    Doyle et al. BMC Genomics (2018) 19:233 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-018-4615-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access New insights into the phylogenetics and population structure of the prairie falcon (Falco mexicanus) Jacqueline M. Doyle1,2*, Douglas A. Bell3,4, Peter H. Bloom5, Gavin Emmons6, Amy Fesnock7, Todd E. Katzner8, Larry LaPré9, Kolbe Leonard10, Phillip SanMiguel11, Rick Westerman11 and J. Andrew DeWoody2,12 Abstract Background: Management requires a robust understanding of between- and within-species genetic variability, however such data are still lacking in many species. For example, although multiple population genetics studies of the peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus) have been conducted, no similar studies have been done of the closely- related prairie falcon (F. mexicanus) and it is unclear how much genetic variation and population structure exists across the species’ range. Furthermore, the phylogenetic relationship of F. mexicanus relative to other falcon species is contested. We utilized a genomics approach (i.e., genome sequencing and assembly followed by single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping) to rapidly address these gaps in knowledge. Results: We sequenced the genome of a single female prairie falcon and generated a 1.17 Gb (gigabases) draft genome assembly. We generated maximum likelihood phylogenetic trees using complete mitochondrial genomes as well as nuclear protein-coding genes. This process provided evidence that F. mexicanus is an outgroup to the clade that includes the peregrine falcon and members of the subgenus Hierofalco. We annotated > 16,000 genes and almost 600,000 high-quality single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the nuclear genome, providing the raw material for a SNP assay design featuring > 140 gene-associated markers and a molecular-sexing marker.
