Foreword A CERTAIN unity ex ists In ever,v schoo l, hidden perhaps, in the activitie of its day: - so vari ous, so many - ~l et revealed in t he depth to which each member shares the spirit of her coll ege. F or us, this is an ess ntial, a profound unity, t he unity of Emmanuel, " God with us. " Once t ruly realized in any student, t his pirit can never be wh oll,v lost. Nor can it, with honesty, be divorced from Ie ser concern or subo rdinated to other values. It has become a way of t hinking and of livin O', even a way of being. However incapa ble of defini t ion, t his spi"i t which is Emmanuel is yet altogether capable of expre:sion. Indeed it expresses itself with eloquence, wit h simplicity, with vigo r in the divers talents, the many objectives, the varied and inconspicuous spl endors of personalit,v which a re represented here. " Diversity in unity," theme of the 1956 E pl LO(1 E, embraces everything great or sma ll which is a part of Em­ manuel. I t poin ts to the many sources from which we have drawn one trut h, to the mul tipl e goals in which we have sought one beauty. F or hidden and disclo:ed in lh e particul ars of sciencc a nd languagc and a rt and philosophy, we, t he many, t he heterogeneous many, have fou nd t he one. For us t hi s boo k is a wa~r to record, not a year, nor even four years, but a time­ less in terval. I t is an eff ort to capt u,'e t he pri: m fl ashing t lu'o ~gh t hese days of light, to secure t he fu git ive, t o fix upon t he page t hat diversity which, fi xed in our hearts, i · unity - i: Emmanuel.

Reblogging Gender: Non-Binary Transgender Subjectivities and the Internet By Lee Fraser Abstract: This thesis is an examination of non-binary transgender communities on the internet and the new, non-binary modes of subjectivity that can be read within these spaces. After my first introductory chapter, which situates my work in the context of previous contributions to transgender theory, I approach non-binary online communities from different perspectives. My second chapter reads certain codes of communication within non-binary friendly online spaces (such as Tumblr) as a form of neo-Dadaism, as well as cyborgian manifestations. My third chapter contends with the interactions of non-binary online communities within a society structured by neo-liberal institutional capitalism.

  • 'I DON't MISS WYOMING' Douglas Coupland Exclusive Download
    I Don’t Miss Wyoming Douglas Coupland ! 1. Introduction Miss Wyoming Book Tour Diary November 2020 The release of the novel Miss Wyoming was promoted with a book tour in 2000. The experience was logged with entries faxed and emailed from the road to a webmaster that posted them onto the Coupland.com website. The following compilation is the recovered diary along with written works related to this time. * * * The tagline in the print advertisements for Miss Wyoming read: “Reinvent yourself today — tomorrow may be too late.” ! 2. Day 01 Vancouver - Montreal January 03, 2000 Canada's National Post newspaper ran a small article I wrote on the difference between truth and fiction. At the end of the article they wrote a list of my books, and included one called Beach Music ...huh? Question: how on earth does a glitch like that happen? It's like an Evelyn Waugh novel. Good photo, though. It looks like I'm a Canadian flag, with my head in the middle of two trees. Oh, in the National Post's Toronto edition, the editors left out the first two letters in 'FICTION' in the headline, thus creating a new word for the English language, 'CTION.' I flew on Air Canada today. They now own Canadian Airlines, so this was my maiden flight on Canada's new air monopoly, 'Mapleflot.' I truly dread the next few years. The hotel is dead empty in Montreal. The absolute end of the holiday season, and I nearly have the whole place to myself. This actually did happen to me once, in Edmonton, Alberta, during a previous book tour.

I would like to acknowledge my thesis chair, Dr. Cindy Royal, for all of her assistance over the past two years. I am thankful for those “ah-ha!” moments we had at her West Campus house and forever grateful that she gave wind to my sails in the most trying times of this process.

  • Advocacy Group Boycotting of Network Television Advertisers and Its Effects on Programming Content
    COMMENTS ADVOCACY GROUP BOYCOTTING OF NETWORK TELEVISION ADVERTISERS AND ITS EFFECTS ON PROGRAMMING CONTENT PATRICK M. FAHEYt INTRODUCTION The number and variety of media outlets in the United States far exceed those in any other nation. Sixty percent of American homes receive cable television service, enabling the average household to view twenty-seven different channels.1 Over 10,000 radio stations compete for listeners and over 40,000 journals and magazines are published in the United States every year.2 As media outlets have expanded, so have the number of commercial messages reaching the average consumer. Network television 3 commercials, for example, have increased greatly. From 1965 to 1990, the number of commercials shown on network television increased threefold, from approximately 1,800 to almost 5,400 per year.4 Moreover, this number increases 20% annually.5 Networks can broadcast five or six consecutive advertisements during a single commercial break, averaging 10.5 minutes of commercial time per hour of prime-time 6 programming. t B.S. 1987, Cornell University;J.D. Candidate 1992, University of Pennsylvania. The author wishes to thank Professor C. Edwin Baker for his advice, guidance, and wisdom throughout the writing of this Comment. I See Peter F. Eder, Advertising and Mass Marketing: The Threat and the Promise, FUTURIST, May 1990, at 38. 2 See id. In this Comment, "network television" refers to the programming of the four largest broadcasting networks: American Broadcasting Company (ABC), Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS), National Broadcasting Company (NBC), and Fox Broadcasting Network (Fox). The Federal Communication Commission (FCC), however, recognizes only ABC, CBS, and NBC as networks; it defines a network "as having weekly programming of 15 hours or more during prime-time."

  • Public Assets, Private Profits Reclaiming the American Commons in an Age of Market Enclosure
    Public Assets, Private Profits Reclaiming the American Commons in an Age of Market Enclosure By David Bollier NEW AMERICA FOUNDATION Washington, DC Acknowledgments A project of this ambition and breadth requires many friends, facilitators, supporters and advisors. I have been blessed with a community of such people. Norman Lear has played multiple roles in enabling this project to advance, offering advice, and supporting the work of the New America Foundation. Not least has been his steadfast personal encouragement to me, for which I am extremely grateful. Over the past eighteen months, my colleagues at New America have also played critical roles:Ted Halstead, for sensing the possibilities; Steve Clemons, for his guidance; Sherle Schwenninger, for early advice; and Michael Calabrese, for ongoing consultations and assistance. I also owe a huge debt to Nikolai Slywka for his resourceful research and editorial critiques, and to Nathan Haga for his energetic early research work. I am very grateful to Edward Skloot and the Surdna Foundation for immediately recognizing the long-term importance of this topic and providing generous financial support just when it was needed. The New America Foundation’s Public Assets Program has also received critical support from the Ford Foundation and from the Turner Foundation. As I attempted to pull together the disparate threads of research and activism dealing with the commons, I realized anew the contributions of certain activists and thinkers whose work has greatly inspired and informed me. This report stands on the shoulders of giants, among them Ralph Nader, who was a first mover on many issues in this report, Peter Barnes, James Boyle, Larry Lessig, James Love, John Richard, Jonathan Rowe, Gary Ruskin and Gigi Sohn.
