D., Chair Sandra Borden, Ph. D. Joseph Kayany, Ph. D. LIMINAL LOSERS: BREAKDOWNS AND BREAKTHROUGHS IN REALITY TELEVISION’S BIGGEST HIT Caitlin Rickert, M.A. Western Michigan University, 2013 This study explores how The Biggest Loser, a popular television reality program that features a weight-loss competition, reflects and magnifies established stereotypes about obese individuals. The show, which encourages contestants to lose weight at a rapid pace, constructs a broken/fixed dichotomy that oversimplifies the complex issues of obesity and health. My research is a semiotic analysis of the eleventh season of the program (2011), focusing on three pairs of contestants (or “couples” teams) that each represent a different level of commitment to the program’s values.

If you think you have problems with Scientology in England, you should see what's happening in the States. Here, they pass out their leaflets on the street corners of some of the most pukka neighbourhoods, urging innocent bystanders to try out Scientology. Those who have accepted the invitation have found themselves in one of their many dingy headquarters, listening to a dull lecture on Scientology, followed by a film of equal merit on its leader, L. Ron Hubbard. Those who didn't walk out then may have submitted to the American Personality Test (in England, it's the Oxford Capacity Analysis), probably not realising that the B.Scn, D.Scn, DD, and BA degrees of the girl who wrote the test stood for Bachelor of Scientology, Doctor of Scientology, and Doctor of Divinity in the "Church" of Scientology only.

They are a working writer’s hodge- watercolor pictures. The handwritten sections of the podge of undated diary entries, descriptions of journals present various problems of transcription and places and people, lists, letters, rough drafts, and interpretation, but even the typed sections require unpublished pieces. After close examination of the serious comparative analysis.

Even as young children, they may lished, the looking glass metaphor is still, transparently, ask profound questions and view life from the per- an illuminating idea.

  • Romanticism in JD Salinger's Glass Novellas by Natalie Michelle Brown
    Heart shaped prose : Romanticism in J.D. Salinger's glass novellas by Natalie Michelle Brown A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English Montana State University © Copyright by Natalie Michelle Brown (2004) Abstract: The novel, novellas and short stories of J.D. Salinger have long been the topic of literary criticism; very little of that existing criticism (only two brief, decades-old articles), however, explicitly acknowledges Salinger’s Romanticism. This thesis seeks to illuminate and discuss elements of Romanticism within Salinger’s work, engaging traditional understandings and tenets of Romanticism as an 18th-19th century literary movement, and with especial attention paid to Salinger’s series of novellas about the Glass family, which comprise the bulk of his output. While Salinger has been given innumerable labels, many, if not all, of them valid, ‘Romantic’, it turns out, is yet another that can be applied to him, when a reader considers, as this thesis does, his roots in, clever allusions to, and persistent echoing of that movement and its characteristics in his own texts. To acknowledge the Romanticism of Salinger’s most important, and, for him, consuming, works is to contribute an idea—hitherto only touched upon—to the scholarship about him, and to offer a fresh context in which readers both familiar with and new to his writing might read it.

In its early years, the Foundation advanced new technologies to eradicate hookworm and develop a vaccine for yellow fever, creating a lasting legacy of strengthening the application of new technologies to improve the lives of the world’s poor and vulnerable. By the middle of the 20th century, this approach led the Foundation to the pre-cursor to the modern day comput- er. At the dawn of the digital era in 1956, the Foundation helped launch the field of artificial intelligence through its support for the work of John McCarthy, the computing visionary who coined the term.
