From all sides come many whole hearted offers of co- operation and it would be hard indeed not to feel encourage- ment and confidence where such a spirit is dominant.

As we read our Anniversary number of “Pep-O-Grams” and reflect upon the inspiring sight of the dinner at the Hotel Astor on October thirteenth last, we cannot refrain from an expression of admiration and gratitude to those responsible for Joseph P. McLoughlin our progress up to now. How much we owe the executives who have made our PARAMOUNT PEP-CLUP> possible, those of our members who conceived it and the governors and officers who have kept it alive and flourishing since it’s inception. Much credit is due the past administrations for the many advantageous activities they have fostered for our benefit and in no better way can we show our appreciation than by taking an active interest in them. For the coming year many additional activities are under consideration. Miss Scott and the' Educational Committee are giving much of their time and energy out- lining plans for further educational work. The numl)er participating in the speed class in stenography is gratifying and encouraging. A Glee Club and a Dramatic Club are in the making. I am sure there is much latent talent in music among our members and the pos- sibilities in the other liranch are readily discernible. Mr. Finston, director of music, has; kindly consented to give what assistance he can in providing capable instruction and direction. Singing is healthful, it affords an e.xcellent relaxation from mental labor and even a little study of it increases our capacity to enjoy good music and singing when we hear it.

Dentro de este género, las diversas adaptaciones y reelabo- raciones de mitos y cuentos tradicionales suponen recursos fértiles con los que cubrir las demandas de una industria extremadamente prolífica. Sin embargo, pese a su po- pularidad como objeto de estudio, las exploraciones textuales sobre anime fantástico rara vez se aventuran más allá de las coordenadas temáticas o históricas de sus argu- mentos. El presente artículo persigue atender a la relación entre la intricada narración de dos series televisivas significativas dentro del fantástico en el anime —Kurozuka y Madoka Magica— y la representación de las brujas que las protagonizan.

  • Talking Like a Shōnen Hero: Masculinity in Post-Bubble Era
    Talking like a Shōnen Hero: Masculinity in Post-Bubble Era Japan through the Lens of Boku and Ore Hannah E. Dahlberg-Dodd The Ohio State University Abstract Comics (manga) and their animated counterparts (anime) are ubiquitous in Japanese popular culture, but rarely is the language used within them the subject of linguistic inquiry. This study aims to address part of this gap by analyzing nearly 40 years’ worth of shōnen anime, which is targeted predominately at adolescent boys. In the early- and mid-20th century, male protagonists saw a shift in first-person pronoun usage. Pre-war, protagonists used boku, but beginning with the post-war Economic Miracle, shōnen protagonists used ore, a change that reflected a shift in hegemonic masculinity to the salaryman model. This study illustrates that a similar change can be seen in the late-20th century. With the economic downturn, salaryman masculinity began to be questioned, though did not completely lose its hegemonic status. This is reflected in shōnen works as a reintroduction of boku as a first- person pronoun option for protagonists beginning in the late 90s. Key words sociolinguistics, media studies, masculinity, yakuwarigo October 2018 Buckeye East Asian Linguistics © The Author 31 1. Introduction Comics (manga) and their animated counterparts (anime) have had an immense impact on Japanese popular culture. As it appears on television, anime, in addition to frequently airing television shows, can also be utilized to sell anything as mundane as convenient store goods to electronics, and characters rendered in an anime-inspired style have been used to sell school uniforms (Toku 2007:19).

There is tremendous potential for the development of network-based clinical biomarkers to better characterize these disorders. However, to realize this potential requires the ability to track brain networks using a more affordable imaging modality, such as Electroencephalography (EEG). Here we present a novel analysis pipeline capable of tracking brain networks from EEG alone, after training on supervisory signals derived from data simultaneously recorded in EEG and fMRI, while people engaged in various cognitive tasks.
