It is our intention that religious programs will promote positive values and moral practices to foster healthy relationships, especially within the families of those under our jurisdiction and within the communities to which they are returning. As a Department, we commit to providing religious as well as cultural opportunities for offenders within available resources, while maintaining facility security, safety, health and orderly operations. The Department will not endorse any religious faith or cultural group, but we will ensure that religious programming is consistent with the provisions of federal and state statutes, and will work hard with the Religious, Cultural and Faith Communities to ensure that the needs of the incarcerated community are fairly met. This desk manual has been prepared for use by chaplains, administrators and other staff of the Washington State Department of Corrections. It is not meant to be an exhaustive study of all religions. It does provide a brief background of most religions having participants housed in Washington prisons. This manual is intended to provide general guidelines, and define practice and procedure for Washington State Department of Corrections institutions. It is intended to be used in conjunction with Department policy. While it does not confer theological expertise, it will, provide correctional workers with the information necessary to respond too many of the religious concerns commonly encountered.

  • The Satanic Bible Anton Szandor Lavey
    Called “The Black Pope” by many of his followers, Anton LaVey began the road to High Priesthood of the Church of Satan when he was only 16 years old and an organ player in a carnival: “On Saturday night I would see men lusting after half‐naked girls dancing at the carnival, and on Sunday morning when I was playing the organ for tent‐show evangelists at the other end of the carnival lot, I would see these same men sitting in the pews with their wives and children, asking God to forgive them and purge them of carnal desires. And the next Saturday night they’d be back at the carnival or some other place of indulgence. “I knew then that the Christian Church thrives on hypocrisy, and that man’s carnal nature will out!” From that time early in his life his path was clear. Finally, on the last night of April, 1966– Walpurgisnacht, the most important festival of the believers in witchcraft–LaVey shaved his head in the tradition of ancient executioners and announced the formation of The Church Of Satan. He had seen the need for a church that would recapture man’s body and his carnal desires as objects of celebration. “Since worship of fleshly things produces pleasure,” he said, “there would then be a temple of glorious indulgence. .” The Satanic Bible Anton Szandor LaVey For Diane Dedications To: Bernadino Logara, who knew the value of money Karl Haushofer, a teacher without a classroom Rasputin, who knew the magic of a child Sir Basil Zaharoff, a gentleman Cagliostro, a rogue Barnabas Saul, the link with Mount Lalesh Ragnar Redbeard, whose might is right William Mortensen, who looked .

  • Anton Lavey, the Satanic Bible and the Satanist "Tradition"1
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Publikations- und Dokumentenserver der Universitätsbibliothek Marburg Marburg Journal of Religion: Volume 7, No. 1 (September 2002) Diabolical Authority: Anton LaVey, The Satanic Bible and the Satanist "Tradition"1 James R. Lewis University of Wisconsin, Stevens Point, USA Dept. of Philosophy and Religious Studies eMail: [email protected] We have a bible. We have a pro-human dogma. We have a church. We have a tradition. - From the Church of Satan's official website. The status of The Satanic Bible as an authoritative scripture-or, perhaps more accurately, as a kind of quasi-scripture-within the Satanic subculture was initially brought to my attention during my first face-to-face encounter with Satanists in the Spring of 2000. Via the internet, I had found a small Satanist group in Portage, Wisconsin, which was about an hour south of where I resided at the time. This group, the Temple of Lylyth, distinguishes itself from Anton LaVey's brand of Satanism chiefly by its emphasis on feminine nature of the Dark Power. I arranged to meet with them in Portage on a Friday evening in connection with a research project on which I was working at the time. Over the course of our conversation, the founder and then leader of the group mentioned that on Friday evenings he was usually downtown where a small group of fervent Christians regularly set up what might be called a "preaching station" to spread the Gospel. This young fellow (he was nineteen at the time) would confront them as a practicing Satanist.

  • The Picture |The Story
    Joe Shere, Jayne Mansfield and Sophia Loren at Romanoff's, Beverly Hills, CA, 1958 The Picture |The Story It seems nearly everyone is familiar with this photograph of Sophia Loren and Jayne Mansfield. In many ways, this is the definition of a truly iconic, memorable image. We know the photograph so well, two Hollywood bombshells at the height of their fame, and Sophia – just for a split second looking down with scorn or contempt at Jayne’s infamous attributes. Like most iconic photographs, the story behind the image is just as incredible as the image itself. This photograph, taken by Joe Shere, ran in numerous magazines and newspapers in 1958, and continues to appear in publications even today. I first met Joe Shere in 1986 when I co-curated “Masters of Starlight”, an exhibition of Hollywood photography at LACMA. This exhibition was one of the first museum shows to recognize the formidable influence of Hollywood portraiture and Hollywood documentary photography within the larger history and evolution of Fine Art Photography. While collaborating on the exhibition, Joe Shere mentioned that he had worked as a photographer in Hollywood for well over 50 years. He said that although he took countless behind-the-scenes photographs during his career, the image of Sophia Loren and Jayne Mansfield will be the one photograph everyone will remember. This has, of course, proven to be true. Like so many memorable photographs – timing, chance, and using one’s ingenuity is critical. As always, luck can be a crucial element to catch that indelible and unpredictable moment. Joe Shere, Marilyn Monroe (in Shorts), DATE After I got to know Joe better, he told me about his brother, Sam, also a photographer who was retired in Florida at the time.

  • Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? and Involved an Axelrod-Like Writer, a Monroe-Like Star, and a Satanic Agent Who Collected Percentages of Souls Rather Than Salaries
    The American Century Theater presents by George Axelrod Audience Guide Written and compiled by Jack Marshall January 15–February 6 Theatre II, Gunston Arts Center Theater you can afford to seesee———— ppplaysplays you can’t afford to miss! About The American Century Theater The American Century Theater was founded in 1994. We are a professional company dedicated to presenting great, important, and neglected American plays of the twentieth century . what Henry Luce called “the American Century.” The company’s mission is one of rediscovery, enlightenment, and perspective, not nostalgia or preservation. Americans must not lose the extraordinary vision and wisdom of past playwrights, nor can we afford to surrender our moorings to our shared cultural heritage. Our mission is also driven by a conviction that communities need theater, and theater needs audiences. To those ends, this company is committed to producing plays that challenge and move all Americans, of all ages, origins and points of view. In particular, we strive to create theatrical experiences that entire families can watch, enjoy, and discuss long afterward. These audience guides are part of our effort to enhance the appreciation of these works, so rich in history, content, and grist for debate. The American Century Theater is a 501(c)(3) professional nonprofit theater company dedicated to producing significant 20th Century American plays and musicals at risk of being forgotten. The American Century Theater is supported in part by Arlington County through the Cultural Affairs Division of the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Resources and the Arlington Commission for the Arts. This arts event is made possible in part by the Virginia Commission on the Arts and the National Endowment for the Arts, as well as by many generous donors.

  • Body Image: Understanding Body Dissatisfaction in Men, Women and Children / Sarah Grogan
    Body Image Body Image reviews current research on body image in men, women and children and presents fresh data from Britain and the United States. Sarah Grogan brings together perspectives from psychology, sociology, women’s studies and media studies to assess what we know about the social construction of body image at the end of the twentieth century. Most previous work on body image concentrates on women. With the male body becoming more ‘visible’ in popular culture, researchers in psychology and sociology have recently become more interested in men’s body image. Sarah Grogan presents original data from interviews with men, women and children to complement existing research, and provides a comprehensive investigation of cultural influences on body image. Body Image will be of interest to students of psychology, sociology, women’s studies, men’s studies, media studies, and anyone with an interest in body image. Sarah Grogan is Senior Lecturer in Psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University. Body Image Understanding body dissatisfaction in men, women and children Sarah Grogan London and New York First published 1999 by Routledge 11 New Fetter Lane, London EC4P 4EE Simultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge 29 West 35th Street, New York, NY 10001 Routledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group This edition published in the Taylor & Francis e-Library, 2001. © 1999 Sarah Grogan All rights reserved.

As guest editor of this month's issue, I couldn't help doing a little reflective thinking on the title of this publication. The Rock out on the center of the campus has stood as long as the College as a jousting point between classes and rival schools. Through the years, it has become a beloved tradition in the hearts of many alumni. Amazingly enough, though victory bells and banners and even some live students have been snatched away from time to time as booty by rival schools, no one has to date succeeded in making off with the Rock. Simulated Rocks have appeared on Homecoming floats, and there have been several attempts, complete with block and tackle to make off with The Rock. After much work and sweat, would- be Rock-absconders have found much to their dismay that there was more to the Rock than meets the eye. When we think of the Rock in terms of what it means to Whittier College, perhaps we would do well to be reminded of what a man named David had to say about THE ROCK as a foundation several thousand years ago: "The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my de- liverer; my God, my strength in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my RAY LENTZSCH guest editor high tower." .

In the 1900s, prostitution accomplishments: they are well known for being sex continued to increase not only in the United States, but symbols. Unfortunately, this is common: Hollywood and around the world, with the United States military and Western culture often “sell sex” in order to make money, various wars that helped to globalize prostitution (Ivie and the main focus is placed on someone’s body rather 2013: 54). This is when laws that were meant to regulate than on the actual person. However, in a society that prostitution and attempt to end human sex trafficking in heavily sexualizes and objectifies women as a marketing the United States were created. Examples of such laws tool, one would think prostitution and sex work would are the Mann Act, which “...imposed heavy penalties on be legal. This is often not the case. In fact, countries transporting, or in any way aiding, abetting, or causing around the world have struggled with whether or not the transportation of women from one state to another for to legalize prostitution. But why is something that is so an ‘immoral purpose’” (Johnson 2014: 703).
