  • By Lee Blessing Study Guide
    Two Rooms By Lee Blessing Study Guide Compiled by Justine Lawton with help from Kevin Seime Who is Lee Blessing? Lee Blessing is a famous playwright who has written several successful shows (see complete list of work below). His most notable plays include A Walk in the Woods (1988), dealing with the friendship that develops between an American and a Russian diplomat; Eleemosynary (1988), about three generations of independent women; and Cobb (2000), which explored the many facets of baseball legend Ty Cobb. Blessing was born in 1949 in Minneapolis, MN. He attended Reed College in Oregon and later the University of Iowa. Blessing’s work was first produced at the Actor’s Theatre of Louisville in 1982 and many of his subsequent scripts would premiere and find success regionally. His most famous play, A Walk in the Woods, is about an American arms negotiator and his friendship with his Soviet counterpart. The play follows the walks they take together in the woods over many months. Their countries are trying to avoid a nuclear war while economic and political problems make the war seem inevitable. List of works: o The Authentic Life Of Billy the o Chesapeake (1999) Kid (1979) o The Winning Streak (2000) .

    Political Preferences The Overview of the Presidential Primary Political Preferences 2017, vol. 14: 137-156. Campaign of Bernie Sanders: the Analysis of his DOI: 10.6084/m9.figshare.5216206 journals.us.edu.pl/index.php/PP Political Background and the Influence of Celebrity Submitted: 06/09/2016 Accepted: 08/10/2016 Endorsement and Social Media on Voters Norbert Tomaszewski University of Wrocław, Poland Abstract: Bernie Sanders became the phenomenon of this year's Presidential Primary campaign in the Democratic Party. In order to analyse his road to success, I have decided to focus on three main factors, that helped him conquer on an equal level with Hillary Clinton: his political background, the social media activity of his campaign staff and the celebrity endorsement. The aim of this article is to show, how in the 21st century, the role of the traditional media during the campaign is weakened by the influence of the Internet 2.0 tools. The work also focuses on the behaviour of the American voters and what impact does the regular internet use have on them. Key words: Internet 2.0, political marketing, voter behaviour, celebrity endorsement, Democratic Party, social media, political campaigns Introduction and the theoretical background The last eight years have brought massive changes on the American political scene, considering the perception of its political marketing. The victory of Barack Obama during the presidential elections in 2008, was the first major political victory that based its success on the expanded use of social media. The equalization of the use of traditional sources and internet tools has allowed the candidates to reach more potential voters.

  • December 4BGR2
    Inflection Point, Changing Naval Air Training and Tactics Bobby Goodman Introduction Every generation or two something in the world changes that forces significant changes in Naval Aviation tactics and training. One such event occurred on December 4, 1983. This event could reasonably be construed as the first in a series of Islamic terrorism events that would dominate international news and U.S. Government investment for many decades to follow. This is the story of that event told by Bobby Goodman, then a Lieutenant flying the A-6E Intruder, who ended up in the middle of the event. During the December 4th strike, the participants were unknown to then LT Goodman, his preparation inappropriate and the strike results insignificant for the ill-defined purpose of the strike. However, the changes made to tactics, training and the Code of Conduct in the aftermath of the strike would establish a Navy of phenomenal capability and awe-inspiring effectiveness. Geopolitical Setting Lebanon had long been in the throes of civil war; it began in earnest in 1976 as Christian East Beirut was ringed by heavily fortified Palestinian camps and became besieged by the PLO camps. This situation was remedied by the combined efforts of the Kataeb Party (also called Phalange) and their allied Christian militias; together they besieged the Palestinian camps embedded in Christian East Beirut. On June 6, 1982 the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) invaded Lebanon in “Operation Peace for Galilee,” for the purpose of rooting out PLO guerillas from the southern part of Lebanon. Between September 16 - 18, 1982, a militia close to the Phalange, a predominantly Christian Lebanese right-wing party, massacred between 460 and 3,500 civilians, mostly Palestinian and Lebanese Shiites, living in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in Beirut.
