  • Futurama Comedy and Writers in the Classroom Sarah J
    Klein’s Beer: Futurama Comedy and Writers in the Classroom Sarah J. Greenwald Appalachian State University Introduction Futurama [1] is an animated science fiction comedy with math, science, or programming jokes in almost every television episode. In the same way that history can provide context to mathematics in the classroom, the rich mathematical history of the show’s writers and the stories of their writing motivations can engage students. A combination of comedy references from the show and quotes from the writers is especially effective in helping to alleviate math anxiety and motivate students to learn and connect to mathematics. In this article we will examine numerous Futurama activities for the classroom, including discussions related to the writers and the representation of mathematics in popular culture, as well as activities related to humorous Futurama math references, including computational number theory and geometry. Figure 1: Klein’s Beer [1, 3ACV12 (The Route of All Evil)] Writers and Humor in the Classroom In the course of earning an undergraduate degree in the mathematical sciences, students study a broad range of mathematical techniques and disciplines. The need to master the fundamental skills of mathematics leads in many instances to a perspective in which mathematics exists unconnected to anything else. Students can become so focused on the present that they perceive mathematics as “closed, dead, emotionless, all discovered... [Teachers] can rescue students from the island of mathematics and relocate them on the mainland of life that contains mathematics that is open, alive, full of emotion, and always interesting” [3]. In the same way that real-life applications and technology can help students connect to mathematics, humorous popular culture references and the related history of the writers who create them can also foster connections.

Title: Simpsorama 09 Nov After the Springfieldians have buried a time capsule a freak storm brings Bender, the robot from 'Futurama' from the future to kill Homer but Simpsons Comics Simpsorama befriends him instead. Other Futurama characters then appear and point out that they must kill Simpsons Comics Simpsorama because, due to the time capsule, he has given rise to mutant rabbits which will destroy New New York. The answer is for the Simpsons to go into the future and round up the mutants and send them into space. Written by don minifie Simpsorama is a fantastic Simpsons episode with a very well written storyline and a ton of hilarious scenes. I was completely entertained from start to finish,and I know people say that crossovers are usually cheesy and mediocre ways of bringing two different franchises together,but this certainly wasn't. Simpsons Comics Simpsorama am a huge fan of both the Simpsons and Futurama,they are both created by Matt Groening and the humour is very similar so it didn't feel like they were bringing Simpsons Comics Simpsorama shows together that have little in common. It was truly magical seeing characters such as Homer and Bender interact and I have high hopes that they make more Simpsorama's in the future,I would be perfectly fine if they wanted to make one every year,the same way they do with Treehouse of Horror,it would be a great way to keep Fry and the gang alive and it would be something cool and different for the Simpsons to do.

The purpose of this assignment is to introduce you to classes in a C++ program, and to have you implement some of the methods (function members) of a class. The class interface (the declaration of the members of the class) has been provided to you, but you will need to finish the implementation of some of the methods of the class. Our program is a game of keeping the crew of the Planet Express happy. This crew (from the show Futurama) is represented by the class. It several integer properties, each tied to a specific character: Thirst Fry’s thirst level Work Leela’s unfulfilled work orders Horde Bender’s horde of treasure Hunger Zoidberg’s hunger level Beauty Amy’s prettiness Receipts Hermes’s backlog of receipts to process Your job is to implement the respective functions for the character’s properties. The amounts of each property range from 0-100. The initial values of each property are set at 50 in the constructor (void Crew::Crew()) - you can change these if you wish. drink() Decreases Fry’s thirst and increases Leela’s work deliver() Decreases Leela’s work and increases Hermes’ receipts steal() Increases Bender’s horde and increases Leela’s work eat() Decreases Zoidberg’s hunger and increases Leela’s work primp() Increases Amy’s beauty and decreases Bender’s horde account() Decreases Hermes’ receipts and decreases Bender’s horde Hunger and thirst need to increase a little bit automatically each turn.

  • Is Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth a Scientist? Fictional Entities, Natural Kinds, and a Justified Contradiction1
    This is a revised version of this essay which used to be 28 pages. Feel free to contact me for the original submission or any other queries at [email protected] Is Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth a Scientist? fictional entities, natural kinds, and a justified contradiction1 I. Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth I aim to focus this paper on understanding empty names in the theme of natural kind distinctions. I take a kind distinction to mean a kinder is kinding and categorically separating from other things ~x, things x by properties that the thing x shares with other things x that are ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ members.2 The kind would be the set that the property sharers are members of. So, a kind as an example can be the set of things with four legs. Lassie has four legs, so that makes her an x. The table on which my laptop is placed as I write this sentence (its name is Jean Paul Sartre) also has four legs, so it is an x. Oscar Pistorius does not have legs, which makes him a ~x. This category would be too broad to be sufficient since there are an infinity of sets we could make. Four-leggedness would not constitute natural kinds. I think a natural kind (if there are such things) is a set that is distinct from other sets by meaningful distinctions of certain properties. By meaningfully distinct of certain properties, I mean to say that the kind x cannot be the kind x ​ ​ ​ without some specific properties or it would be a ~x.

    A Reading Comprehension Text 1 Futurama: A Cartoon for the Future Now, after more than ten years of “The Simpsons” on TV Matt Groening has invented a new series, a science-fiction cartoon called Futurama. The story begins when Fry, a 25-year-old pizza delivery boy, accidentally freezes himself on New Year’s Eve 1999. When he wakes up, it is New Year’s Eve 2999. His life 1000 years later has not changed much. He is still a delivery boy, working for the Planet Express Corporation, which transports packages to all five quadrants of the universe. Other characters in the new cartoon are Leela, a beautiful one-eyed alien who is the captain of Fry`s delivery ship, and Bender, a robot who drinks too much, smokes too much and steals. Life for people in Futurama is programmed. They are tested as young children to find out what they can do best, and then they are given a role in society. Naturally, some of the humour is very black. There are suicide booths, for example. You put your money in them to “stop and drop”. Like the Simpsons, Futurama also has many special guests. It will be interesting to see whether Futurama can be as successful as the Simpsons. Bart, Homer and Co can now be seen in 70 countries and have earned almost one billion dollars. The series has also won lots of awards. Will it be the same with Futurama one day? (Adapted from: Read On 11/99, Eilers und Schünemann Verlag, Bremen 1999) Annotations: delivery Auslieferer to freeze einfrieren Planet Express Corporation Firmenname suicide booth Selbstmordhäuschen to drop hier: tot umfallen 2 like hier: wie Comprehension Exercise: Futurama: A Cartoon for the Future 1.

  • Prisoner of Benda (Challenge)
    Prisoner of Benda (Challenge) Daniel enjoys watching TV series. One of his favourite is Futurama. One episode has the following plot. Professor Farnsworth switches bodies with Amy using a new invention so that he can relive his youth. Likewise, Amy is reminiscent of her younger days of constantly eating and wishes to use the Professor's skinny body to gorge herself with food once again. Later, they find they cannot switch their bodies back with each other, because the device will not operate on the same pairing of bodies. The Professor thoughtlessly suggests they might be able to switch back to their original bodies with a third person. Bender switches bodies with the Professor (Amy's body) so he can perform a robbery without being identified. After realizing his mistake, the Professor, now in Bender's body, tires of trying to solve the problem. He decides to live a life of daring stunts and joins a robot circus. Bender, now in Amy's body, is caught aboard the yacht of Robo-Hungarian emperor Nikolai. When Bender states that he is really a robot who has switched bodies with a human, Nikolai reveals that he feels trapped by his wealth and wishes to live the life of a normal, "peasant" robot. Bender tricks him into switching bodies with a robot wash bucket and inhabits Nikolai's body, planning to live like an emperor. However, he discovers that Nikolai's fiancée and first officer are plotting to kill him. Bender is saved with the assistance of the Professor and the circus' loyal Robo-Hungarian citizens.

  • The Lost Boy
    THE LOST BOY Leda Hayes A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2017 Committee: Becca Cragin, Advisor Jeremy Wallach Esther Clinton Jeffrey Brown © 2017 Leda Hayes All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Becca Cragin, Advisor The following thesis seeks to contribute to contemporary masculinities scholarship by exploring the recent deployment, on and among 20th and 21st century MIC telecommunications, of the myth of the lost boy. It begins with a close look at the origin of the myth of the lost boy, a form first authored as a revision to modernity’s myth of the boy by New Imperialists who sought to justify the long term occupation of colonial territories and protectorates and thus shifted, away from an earlier model of domestic masculinity that pressed forward towards an exhaustive known, rational, and developed; and towards a model of masculinity that was restricted to a Bakhtinian adventure time of serial story, homosocial partnership, and performances of primal boyhood. After a subsequent exploration of the medium and mandates of MIC synergy, that utilizes Marshall McLuhan’s science of medium, this thesis offers that a late 20th and early 21st century community among such Futurama discovers, within the lost boy 2.0 it embraces, a configuration of masculinity that can remasculinize Futurama’s dogma of networked node. While the myth of the lost boy is often popularly proposed to be problematic, detached, and disordered, my research suggests that the myth is instead a restorative configuration that discovers the model of network within Futurama to be inspired by an organic, empowered masculine affection: far from lost, the lost boy of 2017 is the heart of labor, kinship, narrative, and life.

  • 12324 Philip J. Fry Problem
    12324 Philip J. Fry Problem It’s been a few months since Bender solved his famous bending problem. A special request has arrived to Planet Express Inc., the interplanetary courier company where Bender works. Professor Farnsworth (founder, CEO, and chairman of the board) immediately prepared the mission and summoned his crew: Philip J. Fry, Turanga Leela, and Bender. To succeed in the mission, the crew has to make n trips τ1, τ2, :::, τn, in the exact order established by Professor Farnsworth. He has also provided the crew with a notebook that specifies how many minutes each trip in the spaceship will take. Nibbler, Leela’s stupid pet, is also a member of the crew and a critical element to succeed in the mission. Nibbler’s feces, which it expels every now and then, consist of spheres of dark matter that can be used to increase the speed of the spaceship. In fact, a sphere used during a trip halves its duration. Bender’s role in the mission is to pick up the heavy spheres and put them in the reactor of the spaceship. However, he will never put two spheres during the same trip: the accumulation of dark matter is extremely dangerous and may destroy the spaceship. In each trip of the mission, Nibbler expels a certain number of dark matter spheres that can be used to decrease the duration of any of the upcoming trips. In other words, a sphere of dark matter produced during the trip τi can be used to duplicate the speed of the spaceship in one of the trips τj, with i < j ≤ n.
