  • Grant Morrison
    GRANT MORRISON When Grant Morrison took the stage at the Disinfo.Con event, even though it was only 4:30 in the afternoon when the lights went down, it could've been midnight inside the Hammerstein Ballroom. Grant's drunken but enthralling speech began with a scream, a slosh of his beer as he climbed the podium and an admission that he'd just taken drugs and would be flying high by the half hour mark —"So watch for it!" It was pure punk rock theatrics filled with sublime moments —such as Morrison explaining how to work magick spells to all assembled! — and it was certainly one of the event's highlights. The guy was on fire and he looked spectacularly cool up there in his black leather jacket, Donna Karan suit and his shiny, bald pate, just like a white "Shaft." From what I gather, many of the audience didn't know who Morrison was when they arrived, but after that bravura performance, they sure as hell knew who he was when they walked out!' God, where do you start when you're trying to describe a character like Grant Morrison? The most obvious place to start is that Morrison is Scottish. Make that thickly Scottish; born and bred in Glasgow with an accent so strong you'd think he was French! He's also in a select group of contemporary writers who'd be on a Mount Rushmore of comics if such a thing were to exist, alongside Neil Gaiman, Frank Miller and Alan Moore, writers comics fans still read rather than just store in plastic bags.

  • Crossword Ends in Violence (5) by James Cary Contents
    Crossword Ends in Violence (5) by James Cary Contents Cryptic I Cryptic II Concise Competition Mate Imprint Cryptic I 1 Across John Fellowes did not flinch at the sight of the machine gun. Armed police were a common sight across the capital following the recent 7/7 bombs. Even so, loaded automatic weapons made most normal people a little nervous. But John Fellowes was not a normal person. His lack of concern was not because he was a grizzled soldier, or an assassin, or even a terrorist, who might regard bullet wounds as a mere occupational hazard. Far from it. He was a professional cryptic crossword setter. At the sight of the firearm, his instinct was to compose a clue. As he wandered across the concourse of the underground station, he began mulling over the possibilities. Machine gun. He spotted the presence of an ‘-ing’, which could give him a pleasing anagram. The word menacing would leave uh behind. Or there was inhumane with cg left over. Alternatively, machine gun spells I can hug men. How about: ‘I can hug men armed with this (7, 3)’? Fellowes knew he could do better. 6 No matter what the occasion, John Fellowes couldn’t help but make clues of words that he heard or images that he saw. A few days earlier, his accountant had tried to explain the financial status of the Bookman Bureau, Fellowes’ crossword-setting agency. As soon as he had heard the word bankrupt, he jumbled the letters and produced: ‘Clever prank, but empty (8)’. The term receivership had provoked: ‘Liquidation? Taking in a boat, we hear (12)’.

  • 2008 Great Taste Program
    Welcome from the President Welcome to the 22nd annual Great Taste of the Midwest! Once again, we've got an incredible selection of beers that should titillate your taste buds, and we've made several exciting changes which we hope will make your experience even more enjoyable. We've increased space by fencing in more of the park. Instead of the three large tents that we've have had for many years, there are five smaller ones, which means more brewers, shorter lines and better traffic flow. More tents also means more corners, so expect to see more creative and exciting brewer displays. Our expanded education tent this year will have more than just historical displays, but also presentations pairing beer with chocolate, pairing cheese with beer, and a presentation on cooking with beer. This is our third year for the real ale tent, which is growing again due to its amazing popularity. We'll have sixty delicious cask-conditioned beers which are served right from the firkin. If you've never tried a cask conditioned beer, be sure to stop by! Every year I learn to appreciate this event more and more. The location, the patrons, the brewers and all of the incredible beers make this a truly remarkable event that gets better year after year. Also remarkable are the dedicated members of the Madison Homebrewers and Tasters Guild, whose love for brewing and craft beer has made this event possible. Please take time to thank the festival organizers wearing the beige work shirts, many of whom work countless hours each year to make this event a success.

  • Transgressive Black Masculinities in Contemporary African American Satire
    Laughing at My Manhood: Transgressive Black Masculinities in Contemporary African American Satire Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Brandon James Manning, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Adélékè Adéẹ̀kọ́, Advisor Ryan Jay Friedman Valerie Lee LaMonda H. Stallings Copyright by Brandon James Manning 2014 Abstract Vulnerability, as a way to characterize the movement between passivity, shame, and optimism, rests at the center of the Post-Civil Rights Era debates around representations of blackness. My dissertation examines the implications of the more subtle emotions of passivity, shame, and optimism in contemporary satirical narratives in African American literature and visual culture and focuses on the use of these emotions to counter racial stereotypes and expand notions of black masculinity. In “Laughing at My Manhood: Transgressive Black Masculinities in African American Satire,” I chronicle satirists such as Paul Beatty, Percival Everett, Dave Chappelle, and Aaron McGruder and their use of racial caricatures like Uncle Tom, the Black Buck, and Sambo by interrogating how they pair these problematic figures with emotional responses that disregard issues of respectability in order to question the mythos of the “Strong Black Man.” I argue that African American satire, as a transgressive form, creates the possibilities for its practitioners to construct alternative configurations of black masculinities that contest dominant masculine ideals. In my first chapter, I read the trope of the Sambo, as the ideal representation in minstrelsy that demonstrates the facade of racial authenticity.
