DAY 2 | GO BIG PICTURE Welcome to Your Year of Impact and Day 2 of 31 days of living with impact. Olivia Pope is the hugely powerful White House ‘fixer’ in the hit TV series Scandal. Her team are unswervingly loyal, willing to go ‘over a cliff’ for her. When they don’t fully understand the reason behind what she’s asking them to do, they do it anyway. Why? Because they know she is one of the ‘good guys,’ bringing ‘light into the dark’. They are motivated by her vision. Their ‘over a cliff’ loyalty could not be bought with a bonus or pay rise. They have bought into Olivia’s vision. Her vision is their vision. Olivia Pope may be a TV character, but she is playing out a profound truth. If you are to have impact in the world, you must inspire others with your vision. You have to be beyond personal ambition. You have to be about more than ‘me.’ Your motivation must be about more than money. People will not ‘go over a cliff’ to make you more money. They will not follow you to make you more successful. They will follow you when your vision inspires them: when your vision becomes their vision. People will follow you over a cliff because you are leading the way for them to fulfill their vision. Your vision is also theirs. You are here with me because you share my vision. My vision is a world where good people play their part and make their contribution because right now the world needs good people to play their part. Today’s Direction What’s your vision? What ‘s your bigger picture? Write it down now. Perfect it later. My vision is a world where… Detach from you and move to the impact of you. Go Big Picture. That’s the source of your impact in the world. .

Media Presentation of Women Power Strategy in Scandal TV Series Season 7. English Department, UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya. Advisor: Prof. Dr. Zuliati Rohmah, M.Pd. Keywords: gender equality, power strategy, women in leadership, women power, media presentation. This study aims to analyze the power strategy of women characters in Scandal TV Series Season 7. This television series mostly tells about the powerful women politicians who work and handle the scandalous cases. At season 7, there will be the four strong female characters that took the main role in this Scandal serial which are Olivia Pope, Mellie Grant, Quinn Perkins, and Abby Wheelan. The place setting mostly was taken on White House and the law firm called OPA (Olivia Pope & Asosiaciation), which is renamed to QPA (Quinn Perkins & Association). The author aims to analyze the power strategies of those four female characters in the Scandal TV Series Season 7. There are five types of power strategies of Thimm, C., Koch, SC, and Schey, S. (2003), which are order, direct request, threat, hierarchy, and demonstrating competence. This study uses a qualitative approach concerning the use of clear and systematic descriptions of the research being studied. Descriptive studies in the textual analysis were applied in this study to analyze conversations of female characters through the results of the transcript from the manuscript.

A Historical/Critical Analysis of the Tv Series the Fugitive
A HISTORICAL/CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE TV SERIES THE FUGITIVE THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE By David P. Pierson, B.S. Denton, Texas May, 1993 Pierson, David P., A Historical/Critical Analysis Of The TV Series The Fugitive. Master of Science (Radio/TV/Film), May 1993, 168 pp., bibliography, 70 titles. In many respects, the popular 1960's television series, The Fugitive perfectly captured the swelling disillusionment with authority, alienation, and discontent that soon encompassed American society. This historical/critical study provides a broad overview of the economic, social, and political climate that surrounded the creation of The Fugitive. The primary focus of this study is the analysis of five discursive topics (individualism, marriage, justice & authority, professionalism, science and technology) within selected episodes and to show how they relate to broader cultural debates which occurred at that time. Finally, this study argues that The Fui1gitive is a part of a television adventure subgenre which we may classify as the contemporary "wanderer-hero" narrative and traces its evolution through selected television series from the last three decades.

Dallas (1978 TV Series)
Dallas (1978 TV series) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This article is about the original 1978–1991 television series. For the sequel, see Dallas (2012 TV series). Dallas is a long-running American prime time television soap opera that aired from April 2, 1978, to May 3, 1991, on CBS. The series revolves around a wealthy and feuding Texan family, the Ewings, who own the independent oil company Ewing Oil and the cattle-ranching land of Southfork. The series originally focused on the marriage of Bobby Ewing and Pamela Barnes, whose families were sworn enemies with each other. As the series progressed, oil tycoon J.R. Ewing grew to be the show's main character, whose schemes and dirty business became the show's trademark.[1] When the show ended in May 1991, J.R. was the only character to have appeared in every episode. The show was famous for its cliffhangers, including the Who shot J.R.? mystery. The 1980 episode Who Done It remains the second highest rated prime-time telecast ever.[2] The show also featured a "Dream Season", in which the entirety of the ninth season was revealed to have been a dream of Pam Ewing's. After 14 seasons, the series finale "Conundrum" aired in 1991. The show had a relatively ensemble cast. Larry Hagman stars as greedy, scheming oil tycoon J.R. Ewing, stage/screen actressBarbara Bel Geddes as family matriarch Miss Ellie and movie Western actor Jim Davis as Ewing patriarch Jock, his last role before his death in 1981. The series won four Emmy Awards, including a 1980 Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series win for Bel Geddes.

His influence reached its height with his relentless caricatures of Boss Tweed and the Tammany Hall Ring in New York City. In 1871, the Nation, edited by E.L. Godkin, proclaimed: “Mr. Nast has carried political illustrations during the last six months to a pitch of excellence never before attained in this country, and has secured for them an influence on opinion such as they never came near having in any country.”1 Nast contributed to American political and cultural iconography in many ways.

1 Senator Elizabeth Warren Americans for Financial Reform And
Senator Elizabeth Warren Americans for Financial Reform and the Roosevelt Institute Washington, DC November 12, 2013 Remarks as Prepared for Delivery Thank you, Americans for Financial Reform and the Roosevelt Institute for inviting me to speak today. I’ve been working very closely with both AFR and Roosevelt for years now, and I’m really delighted to be here. It has been five years since the financial crisis, but we all remember its darkest days. Credit dried up. The stock market cratered. Historic institutions like Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch were wiped out. There were legitimate fears that our economy was tumbling over a cliff and that we were heading into another Great Depression. We averted that grim outcome, but the damage was staggering. A recent report by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas estimated that the financial crisis cost us upward of 14 trillion dollars— trillion, with a t. That’s $120,000 for every American household—more than two years’ worth of income for the average family. Billions of dollars in retirement savings disappeared. Millions of workers lost their jobs and their sense of financial security. Entire communities were devastated. And a Census Bureau study that came out just a couple months ago shows that homeownership rates declined by 15 percent for families with young children. The Crash of 2008 changed lives forever. In April 2011, after a two-year bipartisan enquiry, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations released a 635-page report that identified the primary factors that led to the crisis. The list included high-risk mortgage lending, inaccurate credit ratings, exotic financial products, and, to top it all off, the repeated failure of regulators to stop the madness.

Race, Gender and Social Class in TV Series Scandal: Patterns of Repetition, Pronominal Reference and Refraction
ISSN 2394-9694 International Journal of Novel Research in Humanity and Social Sciences Vol. 5, Issue 4, pp: (19-29), Month: July - August 2018, Available at: www.noveltyjournals.com Race, Gender and Social Class in TV series Scandal: Patterns of repetition, pronominal reference and refraction Claudia Monacelli UNINT University, Rome, Italy Abstract: This paper explores the issues of race, gender and social class in the TV series Scandal. Patterns of repetition, pronominal reference and refraction, in terms of deflection and the contrast of white/light and black/darkness, are examined. The representation of race, gender and social class on TV is first discussed diachronically, then the language of the TV series Scandal is analyzed. Our findings show that pronominal reference is exploited by one character in the series to distinguish race issues, while refraction, in all its forms – although very prominent throughout the series – is used by only one character to distinguish issues of race, and by the main character to deflect issues of race. Patterns of repetition are found to be the most important linguistic expedient in the series in terms of creating and upholding thematic bonds concerning race, gender and social class. Keywords: Race, Gender, Social Class, Pronominal Reference, Repetition, Refraction. 1. INTRODUCTION Scandal, “a TV show that represents a glaring departure from the parade of white faces typically seen on television” (Pixley 2015: 29), is an American political thriller television series that debuted in 2012. The main character, Olivia Pope, was inspired by former President George W. Bush‟s press aide Judy Smith, who also serves as co-executive producer of the series.

Well, Thanks for That Delightful Introduction, Clear Evidence That I
The Unseen Muzzle: How Timidity, Self-Censorship and Libel Chill Work Their Magic. It’s probably fate; like James Minifie, I was raised on the slimy and sluggish River Trent in the English Midlands. He was from downriver - Burton-on-Trent; I’m from Stoke-on-Trent, upriver but, like Minifie, I came to Canada and lived on the prairies for a while before ending up, like Minifie, for a long spell as a CBC Correspondent in Washington. But there the resemblance ends; he had an illustrious career. Nowadays, I’m not sure any of us has anything as grand as a “career.” I sometimes quote Jim Munson, now a Senator but formerly of CTV News, who coined this immortal phrase shortly before he left CTV: “First, I had a career; then I had a job; now I have a shift.” These are words to ponder in the gloomy environment we face today. Now this may sound like the start of yet another rant from an old-school journalist about the brutish gutter of the modern media: the collapse of standards, the brain-dead blogs and the bad grammar - don’t get me started on the bad grammar. But, we’re not doing that speech tonight. Nostalgia is no use because the good old days weren’t that good and they’re not coming back. They can’t come back. The business model that drives our industry, journalism, is now skidding into history with all the grace of a gas-guzzler heading over a cliff with a sleeping drunk at the wheel.
