It is designed with the intention of making it easier and faster to develop applications using data from thetvdb.com, without having to bother about working with the raw data provided. 1.1.2 Installing The best and recommended way to install pytvdbapi is to use pip. To install, issue the following command in a shell: $ pip install pytvdbapi Depending on on what system and where you install pytvdbapi you may need root privileges to perform the above command. 1.1.3 Dependencies pytvdbapi depends on the following external packages: • httplib2 If you install using the above description, the dependencies will be installed for you if you do not already have them on your system. 1.1.4 Supported Versions The following python versions are supported by pytvdbapi. • 2.6 • 2.7 • 3.3 • 3.4 It may work on other Python versions but they are not actively supported and tested against. 5 pytvdbapi Documentation, Release 0.5.0 1.1.5 Known Issues The following issues/problems with pytvdbapi are known. • No support for connections through proxy servers. 1.2 Python 2.X and 3.X This section describes differences in using pytvdbapi in a Python 2.X environment and a Python 3.X environment. In particular it describes the differences and changes regarding unicode handling. 1.2.1 Unicode Vs. Str In python 3, the unicode object has been removed and the standard str type always represent a unicode string 1. Internally pytvdbapi works exclusively with unicode. That means that on Python 2.X all text attributes will be of type unicode and on Python 3 they will be of type str, all text attributes will be automatically converted as they are loaded. >>> from pytvdbapi import api >>> import sys >>> db= api.TVDB('B43FF87DE395DF56') >>> result= db.search('Alarm für cobra 11','de') >>> show= result[0] >>> if sys.version<'3': ... assert type(show.SeriesName) is unicode ... else: ... assert type(show.SeriesName) is str pytvdbapi attempts to convert all text parameters passed into unicode, that means unicode on Python 2.X and str on python 3.X. For example, both of these are valid: >>> from pytvdbapi import api >>> db= api.TVDB('B43FF87DE395DF56') >>> result= db.search('Alarm für cobra 11','de') >>> len(result) 3 >>> print(result[0]) <Show - Alarm für Cobra 11 - Die Autobahnpolizei> And: >>> result= db.search(u'Dexter','de') >>> len(result) 3 >>> print(result[0]) <Show - Dexter> 1 https://docs.python.org/3.3/howto/unicode.html 6 Chapter 1. Basics pytvdbapi Documentation, Release 0.5.0 1.3 Examples This section provides some different examples of how pytvdbapi can be used. 1.3.1 Basic Usage Search for a show, given its name and a language: >>> from pytvdbapi import api >>> db= api.TVDB("B43FF87DE395DF56") >>> result= db.search("Dexter","en") >>> show= result[0] # If there is a perfect match, it will be the first >>> print(show.SeriesName) Dexter >>> print(show.FirstAired) 2006-10-01 You can easily loop all episodes in a show: >>> for season in show: ... for episode in season: ... print(u"{0} - {1}".format(episode.EpisodeName, episode.FirstAired)) ... Early Cuts: Alex Timmons (Chapter 1) - 2009-10-25 ... Finding Freebo - 2008-10-05 The Lion Sleeps Tonight - 2008-10-12 All In the Family - 2008-10-19 Turning Biminese - 2008-10-26 ... Dress Code - 2013-08-11 Are We There Yet? - 2013-08-18 Make Your Own Kind of Music - 2013-08-25 Goodbye Miami - 2013-09-08 Monkey In a Box - 2013-09-15 Remember the Monsters? - 2013-09-22 1.3.2 Working with a show object Basic usage: # You can use slicing to only get a sub set of all seasons >>> for season in show[2:5]: ... print(season.season_number) ... 2 3 4 # List the total number of seasons # Season 0 is the "specials" season containing special episodes >>> len(show) 9 1.3. Examples 7 pytvdbapi Documentation, Release 0.5.0 >>> print(show[2]) # Access a particular season <Season 002> Access show attributes: >>> print(show.IMDB_ID) tt0773262 >>> hasattr(show,'foo') False >>> hasattr(show,'Genre') True >>> getattr(show,'foo',-1) -1 1.3.3 Working with a Season object Episode access: >>> from pytvdbapi.error import TVDBIndexError >>> season= show[2] # Grab a specific season, season 0 is the specials season >>> len(season) # The number of episodes in the season 12 >>> try: ... print(season[0]) ... except TVDBIndexError: ... # Episodes start at index 1 ... print('No episode at index 0') No episode at index 0 >>> print(season[3]) <Episode - S002E003> You can use slicing to access specific episode objects: >>> for episode in season[3:10:2]: ... print(episode.EpisodeNumber) ... 4 6 8 10 Access the associated show: >>> season.show <Show - Dexter> 1.3.4 Working with an episode object Accessing episode attributes: 8 Chapter 1. Basics pytvdbapi Documentation, Release 0.5.0 >>> episode= show[2][4] >>> print(episode.EpisodeName) See-Through >>> hasattr(episode,'foo') False >>> hasattr(episode,'Director') True Access the containing season: >>> episode.season <Season 002> 1.3.5 Searching and Filtering It is possible to search and filter a show or season instance to find all episodes matching a certain criteria. Searching for all shows written by Tim Schlattmann: >>> episodes= show.filter(key= lambda ep: ep.Writer =='Tim Schlattmann') >>> len(episodes) 7 >>> for ep in episodes: ... print(ep.EpisodeName) ... The Dark Defender Turning Biminese Go Your Own Way Dirty Harry First Blood Once Upon a Time... Scar Tissue Find the episode with production code 302: >>> episode= show.find(key= lambda ep: ep.ProductionCode==302) >>> print(episode.EpisodeName) Finding Freebo >>> print(episode.ProductionCode) 302 1.3.6 Case insensitive attributes It is possible to tell the API to ignore casing when accessing the objects dynamic attributes. If you pass ignore_case=True when creating the pytvdbapi.api.TVDB instance, you can access the dynamically cre- ated attributes of the pytvdbapi.api.Show, pytvdbapi.api.Season, pytvdbapi.api.Episode, pytvdbapi.actor.Actor and pytvdbapi.banner.Banner instances in a case insensitive manner. Example: >>> from pytvdbapi import api >>> db= api.TVDB("B43FF87DE395DF56", ignore_case=True) # Tell API to ignore case >>> result= db.search("Dexter","en") 1.3. Examples 9 pytvdbapi Documentation, Release 0.5.0 >>> show= result[0] >>> print(show.seriesname) Dexter >>> hasattr(show,'SERIESNAME') True >>> hasattr(show,'seriesname') True >>> hasattr(show,'sErIeSnAmE') True >>> episode= show[3][5] >>> print(episode.episodename) Turning Biminese >>> hasattr(episode,'EPISODENAME') True >>> hasattr(episode,'episodename') True 1.3.7 Working with Actor and Banner Objects By default, the extended information for pytvdbapi.actor.Actor and pytvdbapi.banner.Banner are not loaded. This is to save server resources and avoid downloading data that is not necessarily needed. The pytvdbapi.api.Show always contain a list of actor names. If you do want to use this extra actor and banner data you can pass actors=True and banners=True respectively when creating the pytvdbapi.api.TVDB instance, this will cause the actors and/or banners to be loaded for all shows. If you only want this information for some shows, you can use the pytvdbapi.api.Show.load_actors() and pytvdbapi.api.Show.load_banners() functions instead. Using keyword arguments: >>> from pytvdbapi import api >>> db= api.TVDB("B43FF87DE395DF56", actors=True, banners=True) >>> result= db.search("Dexter","en") >>> show= result[0] >>> show.update() >>> print(show.actor_objects[0]) <Actor - Michael C. Hall> Using instance functions: >>> from pytvdbapi import api >>> db= api.TVDB("B43FF87DE395DF56") >>> result= db.search("Dexter","en") >>> show= result[0] >>> len(show.actor_objects) 0 >>> len(show.banner_objects) 0 >>> show.load_actors() # Load actors >>> assert len(show.actor_objects)>0 10 Chapter 1. Basics pytvdbapi Documentation, Release 0.5.0 >>> print(show.actor_objects[0]) <Actor - Michael C. Hall> >>> show.load_banners() # Load banners 1.3.8 Handle Network Issues This provides a more complete example of how to handle the fact that there could be something wrong with the connection to the backend, or the backend could be malfunctioning and return invalid data that we can not work with. >>> from pytvdbapi import api >>> from pytvdbapi.error import ConnectionError, BadData, TVDBIndexError >>> db= api.TVDB("B43FF87DE395DF56") >>> try: ... result= db.search("Dexter","en") # This hits the network and could

    Desiring Dexter: The pangs and pleasures of serial killer body technique Author Green, Stephanie Published 2012 Journal Title Continuum DOI https://doi.org/10.1080/10304312.2012.698037 Copyright Statement © 2012 Taylor & Francis.

Downloaded from http://hdl.handle.net/10072/48836 Griffith Research Online https://research-repository.griffith.edu.au Desiring Dexter: the pangs and pleasures of serial killer body technique Stephanie Green1 School of Humanities, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Australia Abstract The television series Dexter uses the figure of appealing monstrosity to unfold troubled relationships between corporeality, spectatorship and desire. Through a plastic-wrapped display of body horror, lightly veiled by suburban romance, Dexter turns its audience on to the consuming sensations of blood, death and dismemberment while simultaneously alluding to its own narrative and ethical contradictions. The excitations of Dexter are thus encapsulated within a tension between form and content as ambivalent and eroticised desire; both for heroic transgression and narrative resolution. Arguably, however, it is Dexter’s execution of a carefully developed serial killer body technique which makes this series so compelling. Through an examination of Dexter and his plotted body moves, this paper explores the representations of intimacy and murderous identity in this contemporary example of domestic screen horror entertainment. Keywords: Dexter, body-technique, desire, crime television, horror 1 [email protected] Launched in 2006, the television drama series Dexter has been a ratings record- breaker for its network producers (Showtime, CBS 2007-2011).

La Société Terminale 2 Dispositifs spec[tac]ulaires Collection “Futurs Indicatifs” dirigée par Patrick Schmoll et Jean-Christophe Weber La recherche technoscientifique suscite les interrogations les plus stimulantes, en même temps que les plus inquiètes, tant les limitations habituelles de l’agir hu- main semblent pouvoir être dépassées. Nos techniques nous permettent au- jourd’hui, non plus seulement de transformer notre environnement, mais de nous transformer nous-mêmes en modifiant les données programmatiques du vivant. Les dispositifs techniques de communication reconfigurent le lien social jusque dans l’intimité du rapport de l’individu à lui-même et aux autres. Ce pouvoir de transformation, qui suscitait aux siècles précédents un culte opti- miste du progrès, nourrit au contraire aujourd’hui des craintes liées à ses dangers réels ou supposés, ainsi qu’aux interrogations éthiques qu’il soulève. La com- plexité bouscule nos capacités d’anticipation et de contrôle. Quelle place les humains se ménagent-ils dans les sociétés qu’ils produisent, dès lors qu’ils ont la possibilité technique de se traiter eux-mêmes comme des “res- sources” ou des “produits” de leurs activités ?

  • The West Wing
    38/ Pere Antoni Pons The everydayness of power The West Wing If the effect is the same as what happens with me, after seeing any average-quality chapter of The West Wing (1999-2006) the reader-spectator will think he or she is witnessing an incontrovertible landmark in the latest phase of audiovisual narrative. After viewing one of the more dazzling, memorable episodes, he or she will not hesitate to believe that this is to behold one of the major, most perfect intellectual and artistic events of the early twenty-first century, comparable —not only in creative virtuosity but also in meaning, magnitude and scope— with Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel, Shakespeare’s tragedies, Balzac’s The Human Comedy, or the complete recordings of Bob Dylan. Over the top? Even with more rotund words, it would be no exaggeration. Nowadays, nobody can ignore the fact that a colossal explosion in quality has happened over the last decade in the universe of American TV series. The old idea according to which the hapless professionals —scriptwriters, actors and directors— the ones who lack the luck or talent to carve out a niche in Hollywood or to triumph in the world of cinema, have to work in television has now been so thoroughly debunked that it even seems to have been turned on its head. Thanks to titles like The Sopranos, Capo 35 Ample front (Capo 35 Broad forehead), Miquel Barceló (2009). Ceramic, 22,5 x 19 x 25 cm 39 40/41 II The everydayness of power: The West Wing Pere Antoni Pons Lost, and The Wire, no one doubts any more that TV series can be as well filmed, as well written and as well acted as any masterpiece of the big screen.

  • 13Th ANNUAL MENDOCINO FILM FESTIVAL June 1-3, 2018
    13th ANNUAL MENDOCINO FILM FESTIVAL June 1-3, 2018 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 15, 2018 Contact: Kristin Suratt Phone: ​707-937-0171 Cell: 707-813-1356 Email: ​[email protected] Images available upon request The 13th Annual Mendocino Film Festival announces a retrospective screening of the sweeping saga ​Mi Familia ​(​My Family)​, a 1995 independent American drama directed and co-written by Oscar-nominated director Gregory Nava (​El Norte​). Nava will be on hand in Mendocino to discuss the film with festival audiences, along with the film’s stars Jimmy Smits and Esai Morales. ​Mi Familia ​also stars Edward James Olmos, Constance Marie, and Jennifer Lopez in her first major film role. The film will be shown at 11:00 a.m. Friday, June 1 at Crown Hall in Mendocino, with a Q&A with the director and actors after the show. The movie depicts three generations of the Mexican-American Sanchez family with humanity, wit, and grace. The narrative begins with the journey on foot of patriarch José, from Mexico to California, and his subsequent marriage to Maria. The Sanchez family settles in East Los Angeles during the 1920s. Narrated by their son Paco, an aspiring writer, ​Mi Familia​ explores the triumphs and tragedies of an immigrant family making their way in the United States. Entertainment Weekly called ​Mi Familia​ “uplifting, life-affirming​,” and “​unshakable in its inspirational intensity,​” ​and the film today is timelier than ever. “’​Mi Familia ​was blessed with probably the most incredible ensemble of Latino actors ever put on screen: Jimmie Smits, Esai Morales, Edward James Olmos, Jennifer Lopez, Constance Marie, Elpedia Carrillo, and many more,” Nava says.

Endnotes RIZWAN 3 Abstract The female broadcaster provides one of the most stereotypical images of contemporary journalist in popular culture. Often, female journalists are portrayed as vivacious, ruthless, and driven individuals who must compete fiercely to survive in a man’s profession. Robin Scherbatsky (played by Cobie Smulders) of How I Met Your Mother is depicted as an attractive Canadian journalist with a tomboy past on the highly popular television series. Scherbatsky struggles to break free from covering stereotypical “fluff” stories, a genre that is common to female broadcast journalists. While she maintains a rugged and unemotional facade, she is still very womanly and vulnerable in both her career and personal life. This study will examine Scherbatsky’s dichotomous character, compare her image on the series to that of other female journalists in popular culture, and analyze her influence on the current stereotype of female broadcasters.
