CONNECT SELECT a Wide Selection of Interesting and Trending Stories – Rip ‘Em, Read ‘Em and Post ‘Em! THURSDAY, JUNE 10Th, 2021 CONNECT SELECT A wide selection of interesting and trending stories – rip ‘em, read ‘em and post ‘em! THURSDAY, JUNE 10th, 2021 TODAY IS… • NATIONAL BALLPOINT PEN DAY -- You can’t text with it, but the ballpoint pen revolutionized hand-written communications. It was patented 78 years ago, on June 10th, 1943. Think of how silly we’d all look if we were still writing with a feather! • NATIONAL HERBS AND SPICES DAY -- The ‘Colonel’ used 11 of them, the least you can do is throw one or two into whatever you’re making for dinner! DID YOU KNOW?…. Cumin is the world’s most popular spice and cilantro (or coriander) is the most- used herb. (How do you say it: ‘herb’ or ‘erb’?) • NATIONAL ICED TEA DAY -- Celebrating one of the favorite drinks of summertime, whether sweetened or not. Iced tea dates back to the 1870s, long before people had icemakers (or golf carts). BIRTHDAYS: • KATE UPTON, 29: Model/actress. The former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model shot to fame after dancing the ‘Dougie’ at a Los Angeles Clippers game in 2011. • LEE BRICE, 42: Musician.

She was the lead singer for the 60s group The Shirelles, the first all-female black group to have a number 1 hit record with “Will You Love Me Tomorrow.” CLICK FOR “WILL YOU LOVE ME TOMORROW” TRENDING/ODD FINAL ‘KEEPING UP WITH THE KARDASHIANS’ AIRS TONIGHT (00:13) The final episode of 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' airs tonight on E! The show has run for 20 seasons and helped make billionaires out of several members of the Kardashian clan. A two-part ‘reunion’ special starts next week (because apparently, we already need a ‘reunion’ special) HERE’S THE ‘KUWTK’ THEME SONG (‘MORNING’ BY FRANCIS AND THE LIGHTS) THE NORTHEAST COULD WAKE UP TO A SOLAR ECLIPSE (TIME SENSITIVE) (00:19) This morning, the sun will come up looking a little dimmer over the Northeast. They’re getting a rare solar eclipse. It starts before sunrise (around 5:45 eastern time) and will last about an hour. The best view of it is in Canada; they’re getting a so-called ‘ring of fire’ event. But from the Northeastern states it looks more like someone’s taken a bite out of the sun. WHAT?! TEXAS REP WANTS TO ALTER THE EARTH’S ORBIT TO FIX CLIMATE CHANGE (00:26) Oh boy. Texas Republican Louis Gohmert (Loo’ee GO-murt) has an idea to fix climate change. During a committee hearing, he asked if the Earth could be moved further away from the Sun - and the congressman wasn’t kidding either. He asked the National Forest Service if it was possible to change the Earth’s orbit around the Sun or even change the moon’s orbit (for some reason). He was told they’d ‘look into it.’ For the record… we don’t think the National Forest Service has that kinda sway. YOU CAN WATCH GOHMERT ASK HIS CRAZY QUESTION HERE MYSTERY BEACH SLUDGE TURNS OUT TO BE MILLIONS OF DEAD BUGS (00:25) A weird black sludge has been washing up on beaches in Maine and now they’ve solved the mystery of what it is. Scientists with Maine’s Department of Environmental Protection looked at it under a microscope and determined it’s millions and millions of little, dead bugs. Now they’ve got to figure out what kind of bugs they are and why they’re washing up on the beach. One scientist said it’s the first time they’ve ever heard of anything like it. WORLDWIDE INTERNET OUTAGE CAUSED BY ONE CUSTOMER (00:22) You can blame yesterday’s worldwide internet outage on one single customer. Fastly, the cloud computing company where the outage originated, blames the whole thing on a software bug that was triggered when one of their customers changed a setting. But they haven’t snitched on WHICH customer it was. The bug knocked Google, Reddit and a bunch of news and commerce sites offline for about an hour. SEATTLE BECOMES FIRST US CITY TO REACH HERD IMMUNITY? (00:23) Doesn’t look like the US will hit that ’70-percent vaccination’ target by July 4th, but one American city has… and another is close. Seattle’s mayor says they’re the first to vaccinate 70-percent of their residents. And San Francisco’s health department say they’re nearing herd immunity too - with 68- percent fully vaccinated. They think it takes 70-percent of the population to be vaccinated to achieve herd immunity. CICADAS STOP ONE OF THE PRESIDENT’S PLANES FROM TAKING OFF (00:18) Those cicadas are causing a lot of issues in the DC area. They kept a plane carrying White House reporters from taking off for a trip overseas. The bugs invaded the plane’s backup power supply, so they had to swap it with another jet. The Washington area’s cicada brood is so dense it’s been showing up on weather radar. HERE’S THE SOUND OF A CICADA CHIRPING HEATWAVE IS ALMOST OVER (00:24) Millions of Americans from the Northern Plains to New England will get a bit of a break from sweating. The first heatwave of the year is almost done. It’s already a record-breaker in some parts of the country where this is now officially the hottest first week of June, ever! It got so hot in Minneapolis, the school board there has cancelled the rest of the school year when the classrooms started feeling like saunas. US BUYING 500 MIL PFIZER VACCINES FOR POOR COUNTRIES (00:18) ‘Uncle Sam’ is looking more like a ‘sugar daddy’ when it comes to vaccinations. There’s word the White House is buying 500-million Pfizer vaccine doses to donate around the world. 200-million of them will be distributed this year to 92 of the poorest countries on the planet, the rest will be shipped out by early next year. LAW & DISORDER WORLDWIDE DRUG STING USED APP CREATED BY FBI (00:17) 800 people have been now arrested in that worldwide drug trafficking and arms dealing sting. Operation Trojan Shield (which sounds more like a condom brand) scored 8 TONS of coke and about 48-million bucks in dirty money. For 5 years, the bad guys thought they were communicating over a secure app - jokes on them: that app was built by the FBI. PHARMACIST GETS PRISON TIME FOR TAMPERING WITH VACCINE (00:22) Remember the pharmacist in Wisconsin who ruined hundreds of doses of the COVID vaccine? He left them out too long intentionally. He's an admitted conspiracy theorist and believed that the vaccine was dangerous. He now will serve three years in prison for tampering with the vials. Most of the doses were meant for health care workers. He told the court he feels "great shame" over what he did. BOY KILLED IN ROAD RAGE CASE - MURDER CHARGE FILED (00:22) We're learning more about the young man accused of murdering a little boy in a road-rage-fueled shooting. The boy's mother was driving him to school at the time, when she was cut off on the highway and gestured. The accused shooter’s girlfriend was in his car with him. She's been charged with accessory after the fact. The boyfriend’s Instagram is full of posts about his gun collection. WEIRD SCIENCE & TECH NEW FEATURE LETS TINDER USERS BLOCK EVERYONE THEY KNOW (00:18) Finally, there’s a way to avoid an accidental match with your cousin on Tinder. The dating app has unveiled a new feature that lets you block everyone you know. That means, relatives, coworkers, (ugly) friends and exes. Tinder uses your existing phone contact list to block everyone you definitely don’t wanna hook up with. NO PROOF PLEXIGLASS WALLS WORK IN RESTAURANTS & STORES (00:23) Through the pandemic, plexiglass has been put up in lots of places, but does it work? No one knows! "Hygiene theater" is what one public health expert calls plexiglass. So far, there's been no major study that proves the plastic walls helped stop the spread of the coronavirus. In fact, researchers in Japan are working on a theory that links plastic shields with infections in offices with poor ventilation. ANTARCTICA GETS ITS OWN NAMED OCEAN (00:14) Future world maps are changing. The National Geographic Society is adding a fifth ocean around Antarctica. It's been known as the Southern Ocean but will now be labeled that way. The water's current there is different. It's colder and less salty. YOUR MONEY/SHOPPING WILL STILETTO CROCS HELP YOU TRANSITION BACK TO WORK WEAR? (00:21) If you’re worried about transitioning back to work clothes, there are now stiletto Crocs to make the move to business-attire a little easier.

According to the Census Bureau, minorities featuring minority actors are classified as either composed 37.4% of the U.S. population in 2013, up ‘nonwhite films’ or ‘black films,’ with black films defined from 32.6% in 2004.3 Despite this, a study from USC’s as movies featuring predominantly black actors with Media, Diversity, & Social Change Initiative found that white actors playing peripheral roles. After controlling among 600 popular films, only 25.9% of speaking for various production, distribution, and industry factors, characters were from minority groups (Smith, Choueiti the study finds no statistically significant differences & Pieper 2013).

    DIFFUSION OF VIRAL MAREKTING INTO THE WORLD OF PUBLIC RELATIONS A Thesis presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Journalism by KARI STEPHANSEN Dr. Cynthia Frisby, Thesis Supervisor MAY 2008 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the thesis entitled DIFFUSION OF VIRAL MARKETING INTO THE WORLD OF PUBLIC RELATIONS presented by Kari Stephansen, a candidate for the degree master of journalism, and hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance.

None contained the passion that Dr. Frisby carried from her life into the classroom. No matter how I felt going into lecture, I had a renewed sense of capability and want to assurance that I had chosen the right major when I left. The challenging nature of Dr. Frisby’s classes, while sometimes made me want to quit, only proved to me that I was able to do anything as long as I tried. It was this that gave me confidence to pursue a Master’s degree. Having her as my advisor and committee chair was a true blessing.

    August 31, 2020, Issue 720 PD Crosses Country From Couch Ed. Note: Veteran programmer and CRB board officerJohn Shomby recently took a stationary road trip through Country radio at Country Aircheck’s behest. Here’s what he found: During my years as a day-to-day PD, I rarely had enough time to spend with my own radio station, let alone others in my market or across the country. But with unexpected time on my hands (who can relate?), I have been afforded the chance to sample Country stations in various markets from the comfort of my home office. I heard lots of good, solid and safe Country radio, but is that where we want to be heading into 2021 – considering everything that’s changing around us? Methodology: In partnership with Alexa, I set a goal of listening to at least one Country station in each of the top 50 markets.

  • Memes, Memeiosis, and Memetic Drift: Cheryl’S Chichier She Shed S
    2020 МЕДИАЛИНГВИСТИКА Том 7, № 2 ТЕОРЕТИЧЕСКИЕ ОСНОВЫ МЕДИАЛИНГВИСТИКИ UDC 81.27 Memes, memeiosis, and memetic drift: Cheryl’s Chichier She Shed S. Attardo Texas A&M University-Commerce, P.O. Box 3011, Commerce, TX, 75429, USA For citation: Attardo, S. (2020). Memes, memeiosis, and memetic drift: Cheryl’s Chichier She Shed. Media Linguistics, 7 (2), 146–168. https://doi.org/10.21638/spbu22.2020.201 In this paper, a comparison between meme cycles and joke cycles is carried out, using the tools of the General Theory of Verbal Humor and its analysis of joke cycles as consisting of intertex- tual and metatextual variants of the original joke. It is shown that the same tools can be applied to joke cycles and to meme cycles. The methodology is applied to a meme cycle called Cheryl’s She Shed. The analysis shows that the users start from the original video featuring Cheryl’s shed on fire, but soon the process of meme creation (memeiosis) is activated and users start generating all sorts of memes remixing various aspects of the original video and adding other ideas, such as a conspiracy theory about the source of the fire. Eventually, the drift is broad enough that intertextual memes start to appear which require a reference to another text to function, and eventually meta-memes also appear (memes that fail to deliver a meme and are funny because of the violation of expectations). In conclusion, speakers use memes to express their concerns and interests. Meme cycles are very similar to joke cycles, except for the speed of diffusion, a shorter life span, and an increased ease of manipulation of images and text.
