Jonathon Martinez Executive Editor March “color” by Jessie Riojas GPMS NEWS News Editor: Faith Pitts (with help from Toonie, the Press Corps Broonie) Math Counts By Melany Castillo Photos provided by Collen Johnson 3rd-place winners (left-to-right, above) Lleyton Davidson, Elisabeth Miller, Eli Gerick and Elena Miller represented GPMS at the February 2, 2019 Math Counts meet. The team was selected by Mrs. Biediger, and some volunteered. The team can only have 4 students. Mrs. Biediger selected them from her UIL team. There were additional students who went to the November practice round. Eight students participated in the practice meet last fall. (Continued on next page) (Math Counts, continued from previous page) The Nueces Chapter of the Texas Society of Professional Engineers and some local companies sponsor the event each year to challenge 6th-8th grade students with engineering-type problem solving. The competition consists of several different tests and a team test, like the UIL Math competitions. Currently they provide a stipend of up to $500 each competition year to up to two teachers per school for attendance at a free workshop in the fall with continuing education credits ($100), the practice ($200) and the competition ($200). Mrs. Biediger will be at the meet as coach. “If any teachers would like to help me at the competition, they would be eligible for a partial stipend,” she said. Members of the GPMS Math UIL team calculated in a MathCounts meet on Dec. 8, 2018 sponsored by Nueces Chapter of Texas Society of Professional Engineers. Events include Sprint, Target, Team and Countdown - a buzzer beating live action contest. Quinn Smith, 8th grade, placed 10th overall in the individual competition. Contestants (pictured above, left-to- right) were Elena Miller, Lleyton Davidson, Peyton Felchak, Olivia Kohleffel, Luke Kohleffel, Eli Gerick, Quinn Smith, and Austin Nguyen. Cats Club By Kendall Lopez On Jan 11, students that were eligible to go on the Cats Club field trip went to Bowlero in Corpus. Students were provided with a $7 arcade card, and most students brought extra money for food, drinks, and Laser tag. Students had 2 hours to play and bowl. Students had their own personal lane to bowl in with as many people as they want to bowl in the lane with them. Students could also order food from their lanes, as well as order dessert, drinks, and appetizers. In the arcade portion, there were games such as Flappy Birds, Angry Birds, and even a virtual roller coaster ride. Students could go in the photo booth to remember the trip, and they can save up tickets to get prizes in a machine. When the 2 hours was up, students and teachers loaded up the buses to come back to school. After returning to school, students ate their ordered sack lunches or their lunch brought from home. Then, students volunteered to play rounds of volleyball. The next Cat's Club will be March 21st for 6th grade, and March 22nd for 7th & 8th grade. We will be going to Jumping World in Flour Bluff.

Pe ple Section Editor, Madison Snody Meet Mrs. San Juanita Perez By Ginny Carey, Photo by, Eagle Imaging What do you do at GPMS? I teach 6th grade Science. I try to inspire my students to appreciate and respect the world around them and understand how it works. Education/experience: Bachelor’s Degree from University of Texas at San Antonio in 2006, I have been a teacher at G-PISD since spring 2007. For 12 years I was a member of the Texas Regional Collaborative for Excellence in Science Education: this organization allowed me to grow as an educator. TRC has given me some valuable experience that I have been able to bring back to my classroom. For 2 years I worked with the UT STEM Center to expand my knowledge in technology and Computer Science. I am always ready to learn more and find resources to use in my classroom! Hobbies: I love spending time with my family! I also love to travel. This past summer I was able to travel to Canada; while there, I visited Niagara Falls and it was amazing! It is my goal to visit every National park in the U.S.; I have already been to most of the parks in the west. Favorite Book(s): I also love to read. I currently have two favorites: Fish in a Tree by Lynda Hunt and What If? By Randall Munroe (I often refer to this book during class if the content is relevant). I have many students that like to ask “WHAT IF questions, and I will not ever answer a “what if” question because there are usually too many variable to consider to come up with a precise answer. (continued on next page.) Mrs. San Juanita Perez (continued from previous page.) Favorite Game(s): Monopoly, Risk, Scrabble and Words with Friends. Family game night occurs at least once a month in my home and we are competitive. Thanks to my son, I recently started playing a card game called “Magic the Gathering” and it is my goal to beat him every time we play. Favorite music, artist or genre: I enjoy listening to all kinds of music. some of my favorite bands that are in my playlist at the moment include: Rush, The Eagle, Green Day, John Mayer, Post Modern Jukebox, Metallica, Blink 182, Chicken Foot, Queen, Paramore, Pink Floyd, Van Halen, George Strait, Joe Satriani and Fleetwood Mac. Something about me that might surprise people: When I was in 7th grade I missed half the school year! It is not as fun as it sounds…… I was homeschooled because I broke my ankle into really bad and was not allowed to go to school. I had to have two surgeries to fix it and was in a cast for almost 5 months. Meet Coach Christopher Kasner By: Bella Rodriguez What do you do at GPMS? Boys athletic coordinator, head 7th-grade football, basketball, assistant track, 7th grade Science experience: it's my 19th year at GPMS Hobbies: Family time, fishing, snow skiing Favorite Book: The Bible Favorite Game: Any game I play with my daughters Favorite music: Christian music- favorites are Crowder, Skillet, Switchfoot, and any Bethel Music Something about me that might surprise people: I love snow skiing!

  • Gangnam Style’
    POLITICS, PARODIES, AND THE PARADOX OF PSY’S ‘GANGNAM STYLE’ KEITH HOWARD∗ ABSTRACT In 2012, ‘Gangnam Style’ occasioned large flash mobs, three of the early ones taking place in Pasadena, Times Square in New York, and Sydney, Australia. Today, Psy, the singer of ‘Gangnam Style’, is regularly talked about as having brought K-pop to the world beyond East and Southeast Asia, and Korean tourism chiefs are actively planning a Korean Wave street in Gangnam, the district of Seoul lampooned by the song. But, ‘Gangnam Style’ has proved challenging to K-pop fans, who have resisted its gender stereotyping, its comic framing, and its simple dance moves that subsume the aesthetics of movement under a sequence of locations and action vignettes. At the same time, foreign success has given the song, and its singer, legitimacy in Korea so much so that, despite lyrics and video images that critique modern urban life and caricature the misogynistic failures of its protagonist, Psy headlined the inauguration celebrations of Korea’s incoming president, Park Geun-hye, in February 2013. This paper explores the song, its reception and critique by fans and others, and notes how, in an ultimate paradox that reflects the age of social media and the individualization of consumerism, the parodies the song spawned across the globe enabled Koreans to celebrate its success while ignoring its message. Keywords: Korean Wave, K-pop, popular music, parody, mimesis, consumerism, social media, Gangnam Style, Psy. INTRODUCTION In 2012, ‘Gangnam Style’ occasioned large flash mobs, three of the early ones taking place in Pasadena, Times Square in New York, and Sydney, Australia.

These youths are disproportionately Black, and this condition often goes untreated. Consequently, their challenges with PTSD can surface and have tremendous impacts on teaching and learning at the schools they attend. These impacts include severe problems with academic achievement and discipline. The site of this research is a public, urban continuation high school in Northern California where many students exhibit symptoms of PTSD.

  • SNSD and the Art of Bridging The
    Situations Vol. 3 (Winter 2009) © 2009 by Yonsei University Mariah Junglan Min1 [email protected] The Art of Crossing the Line Although the intensive coverage provided to the new all-boy and all-girl bands through the Internet and in more traditional media such as television may make it seem as though such they have long dominated popular music, the current explosion in popularity of idol groups begun only two years ago. What is more, this is not the first time that such groups have stormed the K-pop charts. The first wave of massively popular idol groups was in the late 90s, when a veritable army of teens made their debut as singers. Korean multi-entertainment companies recognized the business potential in well-trained young and attractive stars, and the feverish reception from the public confirmed this. The result was that H.O.T., Sechs Kies, Shinhwa, Fin.K.L., S.E.S., and G.O.D. enjoyed chart success and outstanding album sales. Around 2002, this first golden age of idol groups came to an end. Most of the first wave of idols split up, while some individual members went on to pursue solo careers. Although some groups did continue, with Shinhwa performing as recently as 2008, the moment of the idol group seemed to have passed. For a short time, the K-pop scene was now host to a series of successful solo artists, such as Rain and Yi Hyo-ri, the latter a former member of the all-girl band Fin.K.L. In 2004, the first forerunners of the second wave began to appear, with TVXQ, for example, releasing their first single that year.

  • The Globalization of K-Pop: the Interplay of External and Internal Forces
    THE GLOBALIZATION OF K-POP: THE INTERPLAY OF EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL FORCES Master Thesis presented by Hiu Yan Kong Furtwangen University MBA WS14/16 Matriculation Number 249536 May, 2016 Sworn Statement I hereby solemnly declare on my oath that the work presented has been carried out by me alone without any form of illicit assistance. All sources used have been fully quoted. (Signature, Date) Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic analysis about the growing popularity of Korean pop music (K-pop) worldwide in recent years. On one hand, the international expansion of K-pop can be understood as a result of the strategic planning and business execution that are created and carried out by the entertainment agencies. On the other hand, external circumstances such as the rise of social media also create a wide array of opportunities for K-pop to broaden its global appeal. The research explores the ways how the interplay between external circumstances and organizational strategies has jointly contributed to the global circulation of K-pop. The research starts with providing a general descriptive overview of K-pop. Following that, quantitative methods are applied to measure and assess the international recognition and global spread of K-pop. Next, a systematic approach is used to identify and analyze factors and forces that have important influences and implications on K-pop’s globalization. The analysis is carried out based on three levels of business environment which are macro, operating, and internal level. PEST analysis is applied to identify critical macro-environmental factors including political, economic, socio-cultural, and technological.

  • Pop and K-Dramas: a Billion Dollar Business
    Jain Muskan, Nelly Kavira Mangu Mangu, International Journal of Advance Research, Ideas and Innovations in Technology. ISSN: 2454-132X Impact factor: 4.295 (Volume 4, Issue 1) Available online at www.ijariit.com K-Pop and K-Dramas: A Billion Dollar Business Muskan Jain Kavira Mangu Mangu Nelly Christ University, Bangalore, Karnataka Christ University, Bangalore, Karnataka [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT The paper demonstrates how the South Korean Pop music and TV-dramas have proven their mark around the globe. With the ever growing popularity of these entertainment methods from Korea, they are not only topping music and tv charts but also evolving into a business worth billions of dollars and most importantly it looks sustainable with the innovation and disruption they are bringing into the world market. Keywords: Pop Music, TV-Dramas, South Korea, Disruption, Innovation. INTRODUCTION When in the 1990s diplomatic relations were made between China and South Korea, South Korean soap dramas like ‘What is Love’ began airing on Chinses television. It soon gained a lot of popularity, with millions of Chinese tuning in to watch the show with their friends and family. Cut to some years later in the 2000s and now in the second decade of this century, there are hundreds of Korean TV series and Korean Pop bands making waves internationally. It is therefore evident how the impact fully the South Korean culture is being propagated across the globe. Being a country that boasts of heavy exports of cellphones and gadgets as such as well as cars and other automobiles have now added K-Pop and K- soaps in the leading export industry, quite possibly on the 2nd or 3rd place.

Bennett*a Received 3rd September 2009, Accepted 6th November 2009 First published as an Advance Article on the web 5th January 2010 DOI: 10.1039/b918213f In this paper we present a numerical and experimental investigation of a chaotic mixer in a microchannel via low frequency switching transverse electroosmotic flow. By applying a low frequency, square-wave electric field to a pair of parallel electrodes placed at the bottom of the channel, a complex 3D spatial and time-dependence flow was generated to stretch and fold the fluid. This significantly enhanced the mixing effect. The mixing mechanism was first investigated by numerical and experimental analysis. The effects of operational parameters such as flow rate, frequency, and amplitude of the applied voltage have also been investigated. It is found that the best mixing performance is achieved when the frequency is around 1 Hz, and the required mixing length is about 1.5 mm for the case of applied electric potential 5 V peak-to-peak and flow rate 75 mLhÀ1. The mixing performance was significantly enhanced when the applied electric potential increased or the flow rate of fluids decreased.

THE RELATION OF ST. PAUL'S ETHICS TO HIS DOCTRINE OF SALVATION CONTENTS Page CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION................................ 1 CHAPTER TWO CONVERSION AND BACKGROUND................... 10 CHAPTER THREE THE DOCTRINE OF "IN CHRIST1"................. 60 CHAPTER FOUR THE NATURE OF: REDEMPTION.................... 106 CHAPTER FIVE THE NATURE OF JUSTIFICATION................. 145 CHAPTER SIX THE NATURE OF RECONCILIATION................ 182 CHAPTER SEVEN THE LIFE OF HOLINESS........................ £14 CHAPTER EIGHT ETHICAL PRESUPPOSITIONS..................... 248 CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION In the epistles of St. Paul we find a remarkably well- developed theology. Ethical teaching is, however, by no means lacking. A brief survey is sufficient to show that a large proportion of his extant writings is devoted to practical advice and exhortation. Frequently the main body of ethical teaching follows the section in which his theology is developed and explained. Sometimes, as in the epistle to the Romans, the transition seems to be abrupt and the connection obscure. Possibly it is for this reason that there has been, at times, a tendency either to emphasize the doctrine or the ethic to the exclusion of the other, or to give more or less equal weight to both, and thus to emphasize the disconnection between the two. Some ages have taken St. Paul's doctrine without his ethic. Our own seems to be more concerned with ethics than with theology, and the attempt is made to establish morality without a doctrinal basis.
