  • Sidedoor Episode 2: Special Delivery TC: You Are Listening to Sidedoor, A
    Sidedoor Episode 2: Special Delivery TC: You are listening to Sidedoor, a podcast from the Smithsonian. I’m Tony Cohn and the theme for today’s show is special deliveries. We're going to bring you three stories about how sometimes the way something is delivered makes all the difference. To the prenatal care of teen moms at the Zoo to the power of making yourself the punchline. Alright, I’m going to turn it over to my co-host Megan Detrie. Talk to me a little bit more about where we go in this episode. MD: So for this episode I went on the hunt for some really good jokes. And that actually took me to the back hallways of the National Museum of American History, where we learned all about Phyllis Diller’s meticulously organized joke files. And then, we go across town to the National Zoo, ah, to go behind the scenes at the Great Ape House, where we were warned as we entered that the smell was going to be...very...pungent. TC: Wow, you’re so polite. MD: It lived up to it for sure. And there we met a pregnant and kind of ornery orangutan, who frankly spat at me. I still kind of like her. TC: Alright, as much as I kind of want to get to the spitting on you part, let’s leave the orangutan alone for a minute and focus on our first story. TC: You’ve probably heard of drone delivery, right? This idea that Amazon or some other big company will be able to send packages to your doorstep using a little flying drone.

  • A Yiddish Guide to Phyllis Diller 1917 - 2012
    A YIDDISH GUIDE TO PHYLLIS DILLER 1917 - 2012 Phyllis Diller was the grand dame of comedy. She was a pop culture icon for her jokes about looks, cooking, and fictional husband, “Fang.” She paved the way for Joan Rivers, Chelsea Handler, Roseanne Barr, Ellen Degeneres, and others. by Marjorie Gottlieb Wolfe Syosset, New York Because of her last name and profession, people often assume she’s Jewish. Most Dillers are Jewish. (Think American businessman, Barry Diller, a second generation Austrian Jewish kid brought up in Beverly Hills. Diller served for 10 years as the Chairman and CEO of Paramount Pictures.) She is NOT Jewish! Diller had six children with her first husband, Sherwood Diller, who she married in 1939. She divorced him in 1965 and married Warde Donovan a month later. They divorced after 9 weeks. Dlller said, “I was so busy getting a divorce I didn’t have time to open my wedding gifts.” She had a 10-year affair with “the love of her life,” lawyer, Robert Hastings. She was trained as a classical pianist, but never pursued music as a career. She worked as a copywriter for a northern California newspaper, the San Leandro News- Leader, in the early 1950s. She took the stage (“di bine”) at San Francisco’s Purple Onion Club on March 7, 1955, for her first stand-up comedy performance. She appeared as a contestant on roucho Marx’s show, “You Bet Your Life” in 1957, and appeared on “The Love Boat.” “der man” (husband) Phyllis often joked about her husband, “Fang.” “Fang is so unmechanical.

(202-737-1234) Conference Director Alfred Bendixen Texas A&M University Draft as of March 5, 2014 This on-line draft of the program is designed to provide information to participants in our 25th conference and provide them with an opportunity to make corrections. Participants should check the description of their papers and panels to ensure that names and titles and other information are spelled appropriately. Times of Panels: If there is a conflict in the program (i.e., someone is booked to appear in two places at the same time), please let me know immediately. The program indicates that a few slots for business meetings are still available, but it will be difficult to make other changes. You can presume that the day of your panel is now fixed in stone (and it will not change without the concurrence of every person on that panel) but it may be necessary to make minor changes in the time of a panel. Audio-Visual Equipment: The program also lists the audio-visual equipment that has been requested for each panel. Please note that it may be difficult or impossible to add any audio-visual equipment at this point, but individuals may make such requests. The ALA normally provides a digital projector and screen to those who have requested it at the time the panel or paper is submitted.

  • American Heritage Center
    UNIVERSITY OF WYOMING AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER GUIDE TO ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY RESOURCES Child actress Mary Jane Irving with Bessie Barriscale and Ben Alexander in the 1918 silent film Heart of Rachel. Mary Jane Irving papers, American Heritage Center. Compiled by D. Claudia Thompson and Shaun A. Hayes 2009 PREFACE When the University of Wyoming began collecting the papers of national entertainment figures in the 1970s, it was one of only a handful of repositories actively engaged in the field. Business and industry, science, family history, even print literature were all recognized as legitimate fields of study while prejudice remained against mere entertainment as a source of scholarship. There are two arguments to be made against this narrow vision. In the first place, entertainment is very much an industry. It employs thousands. It requires vast capital expenditure, and it lives or dies on profit. In the second place, popular culture is more universal than any other field. Each individual’s experience is unique, but one common thread running throughout humanity is the desire to be taken out of ourselves, to share with our neighbors some story of humor or adventure. This is the basis for entertainment. The Entertainment Industry collections at the American Heritage Center focus on the twentieth century. During the twentieth century, entertainment in the United States changed radically due to advances in communications technology. The development of radio made it possible for the first time for people on both coasts to listen to a performance simultaneously. The delivery of entertainment thus became immensely cheaper and, at the same time, the fame of individual performers grew.

  • April 4, 2008 Aging Baby Boomers Changing Face of Ohio's Workforce
    April 4, 2008 The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) develops and oversees a wide variety of programs and services that affect millions of Ohioans and billions of dollars. Often, when reporters call about a particular story, they ask, “What else is happening at ODJFS?” The goal of this update is to answer that question. Along with news about current happenings in the department, you’ll find helpful Web links and contact names, along with phone numbers and email addresses. In each issue, we’ll also suggest at least one site to bookmark, for up-to-date information on especially timely or frequently requested topics. For more information about any of the items below, feel free to call our office at (614) 466-6650. We look forward to hearing from you. Aging Baby Boomers Changing Face of Ohio’s Workforce Those 55 and older will comprise 22.4 percent of Ohio’s labor force by 2016, according to a new report issued by the ODJFS Bureau of Labor Market Information. “Ohio’s Graying Labor Force: Aging through 2016” explains population and labor force trends and their implication for workforce development. The report examines how age demographics differ among occupations and looks ahead to the future, with predictions about labor force participation rates, replacement rates, and worker migration patterns. The report can be found at lmi.state.oh.us/research/Graying2016.pdf. Ohio Women’s Hall of Fame Seeking Nominations The Ohio Women's Hall of Fame is accepting nominations for its Class of 2008 through May 15.

What comes back is a new morning every day in the year, and that’s better. —George E. Woodberry The best place to be when you’re sad is Grandpa’s lap —seniorresource.com As I grew older I thought the best part of my life was over. Then I was handed my first grandchild and realized…the best part of my life had just begun. —T-Shirt Slogan The years between 50 and 70 are the hardest. You are always being asked to do things and yet are not decrepit enough to turn them down. —T. S. Eliot My first grandchild, Jordan, was born on January 30, 2011. I was jolted, blindsided by a wallop of loving more intense than anything I could remember or had ever imagined….This is what I didn’t expect. I was at a time in my life where I’d assumed I had already had my best day, my tallest high. But now I was overwhelmed with euphoria. Why was she hitting with such a force? What explains this joy, this grandmother elation that is a new kind of love? —Lesley Stahl You take all the experience and judgement of men over 50 out of the world and there wouldn’t be enough left to run it. —Henry Ford Don’t cry over the past, it’s gone.
