As film critic after film critic stumbled over Screenwriter’s Monthly can be found themselves to call his performance everything from "original" to at the following fine locations: "eccentric," they forgot one thing: the screenwriters, Ted Elliott and Terry Rossio, who did one heck of a job creating Sparrow on paper first.

Analyzes and comments in this article are expected to provide information regarding the humor and criticism of today’s Europe. This research will indicate solid information regarding humor and tradition of criticism in Europe through comparisons and comments on the works of the artists. It is believed that, this research is considered to be useful for academicians, students, artists and readers who interested in humour and criticism in Europe.

Dr. Kristin Schwain Dr. James Van Dyke Dr. Michael Yonan Dr. Alex Barker To Marsha Thompson and Maddox Thornton ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The difficulty of writing a dissertation was never far from anyone’s lips in graduate school. We all talked about the blood, sweat, and tears that went into each of our projects. What we also knew was the unrelenting support our loved ones showed us day in and day out. These acknowledgments are for those who made this work possible. This dissertation is a testament to perseverance and dedication. Yet, neither of those were possible without a few truly remarkable individuals. First, thank you to all my committee members: Dr. Alex Barker, Dr. Michael Yonan, and Dr. James Van Dyke. Your input and overall conversations about my project excited and pushed me to the end. Thank you Mary Bixby for giving me the “tough love” I needed to make sure I met my deadlines.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Sloane Crosley, Associate Director of Publicity Phone: 212.572.2016 E-mail: [email protected] VINTAGE BOOKS TO PUBLISH NIGHTLIGHT: A TWILIGHT PARODY AS A VINTAGE ORIGINAL IN TIME FOR THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE RELEASE OF TWILIGHT SEQUEL” NEW MOON” New York, NY 10/05/09: Vintage Books announces the publication of the first Harvard Lampoon novel parody in exactly 40 years. In 1969, The Harvard Lampoon took affectionate aim at a massive pop culture phenomenon with Bored of the Rings. The paperback original Nightlight, a pitch-perfect spin on the Stephanie Meyers series, will be available on NOVEMBER 3RD. The Twilight movie sequel, “New Moon,” arrives in theaters on November 20th. “Funny” might get you a blog post these days, but it’s the Lampoon-level of satire that makes Nightlight worth every pseudo-bloodsucking, angst-ridden page. Nightlight stakes at the heart of what makes Twilight tick…or, really, cuts to the core of it. As demonstrated by the cover of the book. Or takes a bite out of it, as also demonstrated by the cover of the book. Brooding and hilarious, let Nightlight be your guide through the Twilight fandom that has eclipsed the mind of every teenager you have ever met. About the Plot Pale and klutzy, Belle Goose arrives in Switchblade, Oregon looking for adventure, or at least an undead classmate. She soon discovers Edwart Mullen, a super-hot computer nerd with zero interest in girls. After witnessing a number of strange events–Edwart leaves his Tater Tots™ untouched at lunch! Edwart saves her from a flying snowball!–Belle has a dramatic revelation: Edwart is a vampire.

    Crossroads Cultural Center in collaboration with The Department of Art History and Music present: PPeegguuyy aanndd tthhee CCaatthheeddrraall ooff CChhaarrttrreess AA LLOOVVEE SSTTOORRYY Pope Auditorium, Fordham University, New York, NY Wednesday, December 17, 2008 Crossroads: Good evening, and welcome on behalf of the Crossroads Cultural Center. We would like to thank the co-sponsor of tonight’s event, the Department of Art History and Music at Fordham University, and Radius, the Fordham student club that helped organizing it. It is a great pleasure to be here with all of you a few days before Christmas. It is also a great pleasure to be, so to speak, in the company of Charles Peguy a few days before Christmas because it is impossible to approach the figure of Peguy without being immediately reminded in the most carnal, direct way of what Christmas is about: This marvelous, unique, extraordinary, unbelievable, eternal temporal eternal, divine human divine story, that point of intersection, that unique, marvelous encounter of the temporal in the eternal, and reciprocally of the eternal in the temporal, of the divine in the human, and mutually of the human in the divine... Here is Christianity. Everything else, my friend...let's say that everything else is very good for the history of religions...” For Peguy, truly Christianity was never an intellectual system or a moral code: it was a dramatic event, a new life breaking through into the fallen world. At Crossroads we have always looked at him as a witness and an example of how a Catholic should look at the world, and in particular at culture.
