  • 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.

  • The Springfield Armory Historic Background
    The Springfield Armory Historic Background Report by Todd Jones, Historic Preservation Specialist Federal Emergency Management Agency October 2011 The Springfield Armory Exceptionally unique among the structures in Springfield, MA, the Springfield Armory has stood on Howard Street for over one hundred years. Yet, with its impressive medieval architecture, the building could easily pass for a centuries-old European castle. It may appear as a much unexpected feature on the skyline of a Connecticut River Valley city, but considering Springfield’s illustrious history as a manufacturer of war goods, a castle is actually quite an appropriate inclusion. The Armory is located today at 29 Howard Street. It is surrounded by a dense urban community characterized by commercial interests, with parking lots, a strip mall, and an apartment block included as its primary neighbors. The area transitioned from an urban working class residential neighborhood to its present commercial character during the mid and late twentieth century.

Historic Background Page 2 The 1895 Armory The structure was finished in 1895 for the Massachusetts Volunteer Militia (MVM), referred to in modern times as the Massachusetts National Guard. It was designed by the Boston architectural firm of Wait & Cutter, led by Robert Wait and Amos Cutter, who also planned the Fall River Armory at the same time.

  • Symbols and Themes in Sandplay Therapy for Korean-Chinese Adolescent from Broken Families in China
    상징과모래놀이치료, 제8권 제1호 Journal of Symbols & Sandplay Therapy 2017, 8, Vol. 1, No. 1, 73-90. Symbols and Themes in Sandplay Therapy for Korean-Chinese Adolescent from Broken Families in China Yeo Reum Lee* Chun Yu Sun** <Abstract> The purpose of this study was to find the themes and symbols expressed in sandplay therapy by Korean-Chinese adolescents from broken families in China. This study was conducted with Korean-Chinese residents of Yanbian Prefecture in northeastern China. The subjects of this study were adolescents in broken families who did not live with their mother, father, or both parents for various reasons. Sandplay therapy consisted of eight sessions over one month. The subjects underwent 45 minutes of therapy in each session. With the agreement of the subjects and their guardians, the sandplay therapy process was photographed. Meaningful contents were noted in the sand scenes and abstract research themes were narrowed down. As a result, the observed contents were materialized and the common themes found in adolescents were categorized. To ensure the validity of this study, triangulation and peer debriefing were applied. A case-by-case analysis procedure was adopted. It was found that there were four common themes expressed, namely a ‘sense of distance’, ‘wounded’, ‘hope’, and ‘newness’. This study afforded insights into the psychological difficulties and characteristics of adolescents from broken families as well as providing them with an opportunity for understanding and healing themselves.

  • All in One Sitting
    All in one sitting We have all been there: you settle in to watch one episode of a TV show, and eight hours later you’ve watched the whole season… On the day when Netflix released the entire 13-episode first season of its political drama series House of Cards in one go, it reminded viewers on Twitter to #watchresponsibly: ‘Don’t forget to shower, eat something, get up and walk around!’ All through that day, people were tweeting: ‘What episode are you on?’ Netflix’s strategy was to encourage subscribers to ‘binge-watch’ the show – the TV equivalent of binge- eating. House of Cards of course is not rubbish; it is a highly praised political drama. Originally a novel by Michael Dobbs, it follows the congressman Francis ‘Frank’ Underwood (Kevin Spacey), his scary wife, Claire, and young reporter, Zoe Barnes, as they struggle for power and influence in Washington. At 2 a.m., two episodes into the series, I simply couldn’t stop. It was going to be a long night. The show is clearly and cleverly structured for binge- consumption. Each episode is called a ‘chapter’. There are no introductory flashbacks, common in traditional series. And at the end of nearly every episode, the cliffhanger makes the temptation to find out what is going to happen unbearable. By 10 a.m. the next day, and minutes away from the end of the final episode, I was searching for a release date for season two. English File third edition Intermediate Plus • Student’s Book • Unit 5A, p.46 © Oxford University Press PHOTOCOPIABLE 1 Initial reviews of Netflix’s strategy and the show were mixed.

  • CORONER Fund 080-042 Coroner 1 FTE
    CORONER Fund 080-042 Coroner 1 FTE Chief Deputy Coroner 1 FTE Deputy Coroner Senior Medical Secretary 5 FTE 1 FTE Coroner positions: 8 FTE The position and duties of the Coroner are statutorily defined in the Illinois Counties Code (55 ILCS 5/3-3). MISSION STATEMENT To investigate the cause and manner of death of anyone who falls under the jurisdiction of the Coroner as prescribed by law. The Coroner’s Office sustains teamwork in medico-legal death investigations, delivered with compassion and respect, for the health and well-being of the people of Champaign County. BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS The coroner’s office has experienced significant challenges over the past 2-3 years with trying to keep up with the increased demands and expectations of today’s death investigations. Thanks to television programs, true crime novels, and the internet, investigations to determine cause and manner of death have become more difficult, more prevalent, and more costly than ever before. Additionally, a more transient and less connected society creates a need for increased personnel and financial resources to effectively complete today’s death investigations. The coroner’s office is at a crossroads when it comes to serving citizens of the tenth largest county in Illinois with a level one trauma center, second major hospital, the University of Illinois, and several major interstates crossing through its borders. There are two options for the coroner’s office fiscal year 2022 budget. The first option reflects an increase of personnel by two full-time Deputy Coroner Investigators to allow the coroner’s office to meet minimum staffing requirements for a twenty-four-hour seven day per week operation.

  • Two Recent Decisions Analyze Topics Important to All In-House Lawyers: Carefully Identifying Their Clients and Internally Communicating by E-Mail
    Two Recent Decisions Analyze Topics Important to All In-House Lawyers: Carefully Identifying Their Clients and Internally Communicating by E-Mail Thomas E. Spahn August 27, 2007 Two very recent cases should prompt all in-house lawyers to assess the nature of their representation of corporate affiliates, and the way they internally communicate by e-mail with their business clients. Executive Summaries The Third Circuit warned that in-house lawyers jointly representing their employer and its subsidiaries will have to disclose privileged communications to a former subsidiary which becomes an adversary (for example, if it is spun off and declares bankruptcy). In-house lawyers can avoid this problem by hiring another lawyer to advise the subsidiary in any transaction (such as a spin) that might later result in adversity. The federal court handling the Vioxx cases (adopting a report by a court-appointed Special Master, who is a widely respected privilege scholar) found that Merck’s in-house lawyers had forfeited the privilege by not carefully communicating with — and sharing edits in draft documents with — only those business clients who needed their legal advice. Because Merck’s in-house lawyers participated in widely circulated e-mails (which thus primarily dealt with business rather than legal concerns) and shared their electronic edits and comments about draft documents widely among the same Merck employees, they could not claim privilege protection for the communications, the comments or even their electronic edits on the draft documents circulated internally within Merck. The court indicated that Merck’s in-house lawyers could have preserved the privilege if they had maintained separate lines of communication (for their e-mails, comments and edits) with Merck business persons who needed their legal advice.
