Krzos News Editor As we know it, the Sanibel Causeway's days are numbered, at least according to the Sanibel Plan. Two weeks ago, the Sanibel Planning Commission adopted the Sanibel Plan, setting into motion plans to scrap the causeway's existing budges in favor of a fixed span bridge fiom the mainland to Sanibel. Planning Commissioners and city staff feel that doing away with the cur- rent bridges and islands is "the single most important improvement project which would improve hurricane evacu- ation safety." The Sanibel Plan, in two separate sections, states that the current bridges i are impractical for traffic flow and hur- ncane safety.

  • World on Fire
    Biographical Notes World on Fire Peter Bowker Writer, World on Fire MASTERPIECE fans remember Peter Bowker’s impassioned adaptation of Wuthering Heights from 2009, which captured Emily Brontë’s masterpiece in all its complexity. With World on Fire he has created a plot with even more twists, turns, and memorable characters, centered on the chaotic events at the outset of World War II. Bowker has been an established screenwriter in the U.K since penning scripts for Casualty in the early 1990s. Since then, he has written for many long-running series such as Where the Heart Is and Clocking Off. His original work has included Undercover Heart; Flesh and Blood, for which he won Best Writer at the RTS Awards; Blackpool, which was awarded BANFF Film Festival Best Mini-Series and Global Television Grand Prize; and Occupation, which was awarded Best Drama Serial at the BAFTA Awards, in addition to Best Short-Form Drama at the WGGB Awards and another RTS Best Writer Award. He has since written Eric and Ernie and Marvellous. Both productions have won prestigious awards, including a Best Drama BAFTA for Marvellous, which became the most popular BBC2 single drama of the last 20 years. Most recently he has written an adaptation of John Lanchester’s novel Capital and two series of the acclaimed The A Word. Julia Brown Lois Bennett, World on Fire Driven to escape her cheating lover and dysfunctional family, Julia Brown’s character in World on Fire finds a wartime role that exploits her remarkable singing talent. Luckily, Brown herself is a gifted vocalist and sang much of the soundtrack that accompanies the episodes.

    wwwhe Miam, hurricane.miami.edui Hurricane/ Volume 74T, Number 5 University of Miami Tuesday September 17, 1996 Compliments outweigh complaints By CRISTINA ORTEGA Staff Writer It has been eight months since the George A. Smathers Wellness Center opened its doors and already it is evolving and changing. For one thing, the influence ofthe Wellness Center caused Campus Sports and Recreation, the center's administrative body, to change its name to the Department of Wellness and Recreation. The word "wellness" better describes the func­ tions sponsored by the center, said Patty Swift, the Wellness Center's assistant director of business and marketing. "But the name-change was just a technical change. Most of the concrete changes have been done in response to the complaints and suggestions of the people who use the facil­ ity," Swift said. "We are constantly trying to make the cen­ ter better." Patty Pujals, who works at the Wellness Center's front desk and pro shop, said she hears people compliment the facility all the time. "The alumni are always asking 'why didn't they have this when I was here?' Most people are very impressed when they first see the center," Pujals said. "People say it's like no other fitness facility they've ever seen." PUMPING UP: Dave Celfman, senior, obviously thinks the Wellness Center's worth it, as he lifts weights on Sunday night.

  • The Renaissance Tragic Interior and Its Classical Substructure
    The Renaissance Tragic Interior and Its Classical Substructure A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature of the College of Arts and Sciences by Andrew Alexander MAT Miami University June 2005 MA (Hons) University of Glasgow June 1988 Committee Chair: J. Z. Kamholtz PhD Committee Members: J. Carlson PhD, M. Griffith MFA Abstract How similar is the Classical private interior which birthed the public archetype of the vir bonus to the idea of identity which we now label “modern’ and to which Shakespearean characters lay claim when they assert selfhood by name: “always I am Caesar”; “I am Antony yet”? Over the last 15 years or so, the emergent field of Classical scholarship which has followed the cultural materialist and New Historicist turn in English studies has led to a reconsideration of such questions. Taking advantage of these new lines of inquiry, this discussion examines the extent to which Early Modern identity, as revealed in the works of sixteenth and seventeenth-century tragedians, takes its psychological scaffolding from Classical models, originating with the archaic Greek heroes of Homer and modified by the rhetorical and theatrical tropes of writers and statesmen from the Roman Republic and Imperiate, such as Cicero, Seneca, and Quintilian. Each strand of the argument considers how Classical writers understood their own identities, both idealized and actual. Given that the influence of the Graeco-Roman psychological interior on its Renaissance successor is mediated by intervening centuries of Catholic ideology and Mediaeval appropriation, the avenues of reception for Classical thought in the Renaissance are considered as part of the argument.
