Or, browse our archive content for a look back at the global efforts as told by Dr. Greg Allgood, Founder of the CSDW Program. Hiking Mt Kilimanjaro to Help Raise Awareness of the Global Clean Drinking Water Crisis January 3, 2013 I can't believe I'm doing it again! I'll take part in the 2nd Summit on the Summit Kilimanjaro effort organized by Grammy-nominated singer and philanthropist Kenna. I'm in Tanzania now and physically, emotionally, and spiritually ready for the grueling 7 day ascent of Africa's tallest peak at 19,341 feet above sea level. Last time, it took everything I had to make it to the summit. Three years later means I'm now 53 years old, and so I know this is going to be a challenge of a lifetime. The last climb in 2010 was a huge success by generating 2 billion media impressions and becoming the top cause on Facebook and the top trending topic on Twitter during the climb. I attended as one of the water experts along with celebrities and influencers including Jessica Biel, Emile Hirsh, Isabel Lucas, and Alexandra Cousteau. Amazingly since the average summit success is only 60%, we all made it to the top. It was the biggest physical challenge of our lives for most of us. To kick-off this year's effort, Emile Hirsch just wrote about the challenge and his harrowing experience of 2010 SOTSK in the Hollywood Reporter (LINK). Prior to the climb, I hosted the climbers in a village visit near Arusha, Tanzania. This is an area where FHI360 is providing the P&G water purification packets (formerly called PUR Purifier of Water) in Maasai villages. The work in the villages has now continued for more than 3 years and tomorrow I'll host this year's Summit on the Summit Kilimanjaro (SOTSK) climbers on a village visit. Many of them have never traveled to Africa so I'm eager to provide them with the experience of seeing the challenges of the water crisis first-hand as well as the opportunity provided by the simple solution of the P&G water packets to prevent waterborne illness. The UNC Chapter of Students of the World visited this same Maasai village about a year into the effort to document the lasting impact of the SOTSK effort. By watching their 90 second video you can better understand the goals of SOTSK as well as virtually visit the Maasai village and see the impact of the P&G Children's Safe Drinking Water Program (LINK) This year's SOTSK will include cultural influencers Justin Chatwin, Mark Foster, Beau Garrett, Chase Jarvis, Lauren Sanchez, and Bryn Mooser. We'll have a seven-day, fifty-mile climb up Kilimanjaro designed to draw attention to the impact of water- borne illness, educate the public about the solutions available including the P&G packets, and generate a call to action to help address the problem. In addition to myself and Kenna, the other repeat climber from the 2010 SOTSK climb is Melissa Arnot, the only woman to summit Mt. Everest four times. Melissa told me that Mt Kilimanjaro is a serious mountain and we're going to have a real adventure. As one of the most experienced mountain guides in the world, she should know! I'm glad for my months of training for SOTSK by climbing literally thousands of flights of stairs with a weighted backpack. In addition to our team of climbers, Kenna has enlisted many of his celebrity friends who will take part by using social media. Headlining the celebrities who will lead this effort are actresses Olivia Wilde from the television show "House" and Dianna Agron from the television show "Glee". For Twitter, we'll use the tag of @SOTSK as well as our own @PG_CSDW. You can follow the thrill of the hike through this blog, through the P&G CSDW Facebook page, and by visiting the SOTSK website, www.summitonthesummit.com. On the SOTSK website, users will be encouraged to join the online "Summit Seeker” community, a first-of-its-kind, interactive social gaming platform. "Summit Seeker” allows supporters to follow the climbers on our ascent of Kilimanjaro, viewing our tweets, pictures, and updates from the mountain in real time. And, users are rewarded for their participation in everything from signing a personal water conservation pledge to following along in their own virtual climb, with prizes including some great gifts donated by some of the SOTSK sponsors including P&G brands of Gillette and SKII , and HP, Intel, Eddie Bauer and KLM. As Kenna says "The gaming and social media platforms are our connection to supporters as we scale the mountain and what will sustain the life of the initiative long after the climb is complete." I'm glad to acknowledge and thank P&G for their support of this effort. The P&G Children's Safe Drinking Water Program is a premier collaborator in SOTSK providing our water expertise as well as the work in the Maasai village. We'll also provide P&G water purification packets to make our drinking water safe during our climb. Three other water organizations are lending their expertise by taking part in the climb including Water.org's Chevenee Reavis, Wello Water’s Cynthia Koenig, and H20 For Life’s Steve Hall. I'd also like to thank HP and Intel for keeping us connected during the climb, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines for donating our flights from the US, and Eddie Bauer's First Ascent for providing us with the mountaineering gear for the climb as well as Melissa Arnot. Tomorrow, I'll host the climbers on the visit to the Mswakini village. I'm excited to see the progress made by FHI360 and their local implemention partner Selian Hospital..

  • Video Reviews 3-23-07.Qxp
    New On Video & DVD Eragon Is a fantastical adventure in a vein similar to that of the Lord Of The Rings trilogy and The Chronicles Of Narnia. A classic story of a quest driven by destiny and set in a land where elves, magi- cians, and humans live side by side, the battle between good and evil, innocence and cynicism, is taken up once again. John Malkovitch camps it up as the evil King Galbatorix, a former guardian of peace who long ago went over to the dark side. He now rules over a land from which dragons have all but disappeared, until humble farm boy Eragon (newcomer Edward Speelers) happens upon a myste- rious blue object that turns out to be a dragon egg. Eragon befriends the charming dragon cub, Saphira (voiced with aplomb by Rachel Weisz), and becomes her rider, designating him as the princi- pal warrior in the fight against evil. Jeremy Irons steals the show as the wise and mysterious old man who becomes Eragon’s mentor, guiding him through the tasks of saving a princess (Sienna Guillory) battling an evil sorcerer (Robert Carlyle, Trainspotting), and fending off hordes of the hideous Urgals. All of this will strike the seasoned fantasy viewer as familiar territory, but the formula is given life by veterans Malkovitch and Irons, as well as the young Speelers. The film was shot mostly in Hungary, whose breathtaking landscape combines to great effect with excellent cinematography. The special effects, created by Lord Of The Rings’ Digital Magic and Star Wars’ Industrial Light and Magic, more than live up to the precedent set by those films, while the dragon is film’s true star.

When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the old Flynn’s Arcade—a signal that could only come from his father—he finds himself pulled into a digital grid where Kevin has been trapped for 20 years.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications HORROR GLOBAL, HORROR LOCAL: A CROSS-CULTURAL ANALYSIS OF TORTURE PORN, J-HORROR, AND GIALLO AS CONTEMPORARY MANIFESTATIONS OF THE HORROR GENRE A Thesis in Media Studies by Lauren J. DeCarvalho © 2009 Lauren J. DeCarvalho Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts August 2009 ii The thesis of Lauren J. DeCarvalho was reviewed and approved* by the following: John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduate Studies and Research Matthew F. Jordan Assistant Professor of Media Studies Thesis Advisor Marie C. Hardin Associate Professor of Journalism Jeanne L. Hall Associate Professor of Film and Video *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT The overbearing effects of Hollywood continue to blur the lines of distinction between national and global cinema, leaving scholars to wonder whether the latter type of cinema has since trumped the former. This thesis explores the depths of this perplexity by looking at the cultural differences in post-1990s horror films from three countries: the United States, Japan, and Italy. Scholarship on women in horror films continues to focus on the feminist sensitivities, without the slightest regard for possible cultural specificities, within the horror genre. This, in turn, often collapses the study of women in horror films into a transnational genre, thereby contributing to the perception of a dominant global cinema. Therefore, it is the aim of the author to look at three culturally-specific subgenres of the horror film to explore their differences and similarities.

  • From Marcus Welby, M.D. to the Resident: the Changing Portrayal of Physicians in Tv Medical Dramas
    RMC Original JMM ISSN electrónico: 1885-5210 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.14201/rmc202016287102 FROM MARCUS WELBY, M.D. TO THE RESIDENT: THE CHANGING PORTRAYAL OF PHYSICIANS IN TV MEDICAL DRAMAS Desde Marcus Welby, M.D. hasta The resident: los cambios en las representaciones de los médicos en las series de televisión Irene CAMBRA-BADII1; Elena GUARDIOLA2; Josep-E. BAÑOS2 1Cátedra de Bioética. Universitat de Vic – Universitat Central de Catalunya.2 Facultad de Medicina. Universitat de Vic – Universitat Central de Catalunya (Spain). e-mail: [email protected] Fecha de recepción: 9 July 2019 Fecha de aceptación: 5 September 2019 Fecha del Avance On-Line: Fecha de publicación: 1 June 2020 Summary Over the years, the way medical dramas represent health professionals has changed. When the first medical dramas were broadcasted, the main characters were good, peaceful, intelligent, competent, empathic, and successful physicians. One of the most famous, even outside the US, was Marcus Welby M.D. (1969-1976) of David Victor –which this year marks 50 years since its first emission. This depiction began to change in the mid-1990s. While maintaining the over positive image of medical doctors, TV series started to put more emphasis on their negative characteristics and difficulties in their interpersonal relationships, such asER (TV) by Michael Crichton (United States) and House MD (TV) by David Shore (United States). In these series, physicians were portrayed as arrogant, greedy, and adulterous, and their diagnostic and therapeutic errors were exposed. The last two series are The Good Doctor (TV) by David Shore (United States), with a resident of surgery with autism and Savant syndrome, and The Resident (TV) by Amy Holden Jones, Hayley Schore and Roshan Sethi (United States), where serious institutional problems appear.
