In the wake of Anonymous Reporting John Hinckley’s 1981 assassination attempt of President Ronald Reagan, the www.SAFE2TELL.org April 13, 1981, issue of Time magazine quoted President John Kennedy who said, “If anyone wants to do it, no amount of protection is enough. All a man needs is a willingness to trade his life for mine." While the discussion regarding 1-877-542-7233 civility during public discourse is interesting, I prefer to focus on the more tangible issue of “What do we do if we’re present when it happens?” Ken Hilte, MSM, Chief Of Police Department of Public Safety 5675 South Academy Blvd., A-100 Colorado Springs, CO 80906 Another Spree Shooter The January 24, 2011, issue of Time magazine reports that the emotionally disturbed Tucson gunman fired 31 rounds in 15 seconds. Nineteen people were wounded and six died. Reports indicate that while Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords was the shooter’s intended and first victim, shooting her from a distance of two - three feet, the remaining victims were struck as the shooter randomly fired rounds at the crowd. The shooter was stopped when bystanders, men and women alike, pounced on him.

  • Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549
    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

  • The Rise of Controversial Content in Film
    The Climb of Controversial Film Content by Ashley Haygood Submitted to the Department of Communication Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Communication at Liberty University May 2007 Film Content ii Abstract This study looks at the change in controversial content in films during the 20th century. Original films made prior to 1968 and their remakes produced after were compared in the content areas of profanity, nudity, sexual content, alcohol and drug use, and violence. The advent of television, post-war effects and a proposed “Hollywood elite” are discussed as possible causes for the increase in controversial content. Commentary from industry professionals on the change in content is presented, along with an overview of American culture and the history of the film industry. Key words: film content, controversial content, film history, Hollywood, film industry, film remakes i. Film Content iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my family for their unwavering support during the last three years. Without their help and encouragement, I would not have made it through this program. I would also like to thank the professors of the Communications Department from whom I have learned skills and information that I will take with me into a life-long career in communications. Lastly, I would like to thank my wonderful Thesis committee, especially Dr. Kelly who has shown me great patience during this process. I have only grown as a scholar from this experience. ii.

  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

  • Introduction
    Introduction Mircea Pitici In the fourth annual volume of The Best Writing on Mathematics series, we present once again a collection of recent articles on various aspects re- lated to mathematics. With few exceptions, these pieces were published in 2012. The relevant literature I surveyed to compile the selection is vast and spread over many publishing venues; strict limitation to the time frame offered by the calendar is not only unrealistic but also undesirable. I thought up this series for the first time about nine years ago. Quite by chance, in a fancy, and convinced that such a series existed, I asked in a bookstore for the latest volume of The Best Writing on Mathematics. To my puzzlement, I learned that the book I wanted did not exist—and the remote idea that I might do it one day was born timidly in my mind, only to be overwhelmed, over the ensuing few years, by unusual ad- versity, hardship, and misadventures. But when the right opportunity appeared, I was prepared for it; the result is in your hands. Mathematicians are mavericks—inventors and explorers of sorts; they create new things and discover novel ways of looking at old things; they believe things hard to believe, and question what seems to be obvi- ous. Mathematicians also disrupt patterns of entrenched thinking; their work concerns vast streams of physical and mental phenomena from which they pick the proportions that make up a customized blend of ab- stractions, glued by tight reasoning and augmented with clues glanced from the natural universe. This amalgam differs from one mathemati- cian to another; it is “purer” or “less pure,” depending on how little or how much “application” it contains; it is also changeable, flexible, and adaptable, reflecting (or reacting to) the social intercourse of ideas that influences each of us.
