Nella vita privata Patrick è una persona puntigliosa e precisa, che dedica molto tempo alla cura della propria persona. Di giorno vive una vita tranquilla e regolare, di notte invece emerge il suo assoluto disprezzo degli emarginati, l'invidia nei confronti dei colleghi, e l'aridità affettiva verso le donne, lo trasformano in un serial killer. Uomini che imitano le donne What Women Want Regia:Nancy Meyers Anno: 2000 Nick Marshall è pubblicitario in una nota agenzia di Chicago, un giorno nella ditta entra, come nuovo direttore creativo l'affascinante Darcy McGuire, che subito crea un nuovo :"potere alle donne".

Quando si risveglia, scopre di aver assunto un potere "paranormale": riesce infatti a sentire ciò che tutte le donne pensano.

  • A Cross-Cultural Analysis of the Etiology of Burnout in Medical Literature
    A Different Kind of Fatigue: A Cross-cultural Analysis of the Etiology of Burnout in Medical Literature by Jessica Tran A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Microbiology (Honors Scholar) Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in English (Honors Scholar) Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in International Studies in Microbiology (Honors Scholar) Presented March 14th, 2016 Commencement June 2016 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jessica Tran for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Microbiology, Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in English, and Honors Baccalaureate of Arts in International Studies in Microbiology presented on March 14th, 2016. Title: A Different Kind of Fatigue: A Cross-cultural Analysis of the Etiology of Burnout in Medical Literature Abstract approved: _____________________________________________________ Raymond Malewitz The rate of physician dissatisfaction is steadily rising. Between 2011 and 2012, the number of physicians that would not choose a career in medicine if given the opportunity to decide again increased by 15% (Adams). This discontentment has major repercussions in the midst of the rising need for physicians: it is estimated that by 2025, there will be a physician deficit of 90,000 (Bernstein). One reason for the increasing dissatisfaction is burnout, which physician Richard Gunderman defines as “emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and a diminished sense of accomplishment.” Although Gunderman identifies the etiology of dissatisfaction, he fails to characterize burnout and explain where and why this phenomenon occurs. In this paper, I use Raymond Williams’ theory on “structures of feeling” as a lens to identify the characteristics and etiology of burnout.

  • Scrubs(Series) - the Free Online Dictionary and Encyclopedia (TFODE) 11/21/13 7:56 AM
    Scrubs(series) - The Free Online Dictionary and Encyclopedia (TFODE) 11/21/13 7:56 AM Scrubs(series) - 2 results found: Wikipedia, twitter Pronunciation - English Wikipedia Scrubs (TV series) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Scrubs(series)) Scrubs is an American medical comedy-drama television series created by Bill Lawrence that aired from October 2, 2001 to March 17, 2010 on NBC and later ABC. The series follows the lives of employees at the fictional Sacred Heart teaching hospital. The title is a play on surgical scrubs and a term for a low-ranking person because at the beginning of the series, most of the main characters were medical interns. The series features fast-paced screenplay, slapstick, and surreal vignettes presented mostly as the daydreams of the central character, Dr. John "J.D." Dorian, who is played by Zach Braff. Actors starring alongside Braff in the first eight seasons included Sarah Chalke Donald Faison, Neil Flynn, Ken Jenkins, John C. McGinley, and Judy Reyes. The series has also featured multiple guest appearances by film actors, such as Brendan Fraser, Heather Graham, and Colin Farrell. In the ninth season, many new cast members were introduced and the show setting moved from a hospital to a medical school. Out of the original cast, only Braff, Faison and McGinley became regular cast members while the others, with the exception of Reyes, made guest appearances. Braff appeared in six episodes of the ninth season before departing. Kerry Bishé, Eliza Coupe, Dave Franco, and Mosley became series regulars with Bishé becoming the show's new narrator.

  • My Musical« Musikalisches Erzählen Am Beispiel Von SCRUBS Sebastian Stoppe (Leipzig)
    »My Musical« Musikalisches Erzählen am Beispiel von SCRUBS Sebastian Stoppe (Leipzig) Einleitung Der Film und später auch das Fernsehen haben seit frühester Zeit eine enge Verbindung zum Musiktheater. Nur zwei Jahre nach THE JAZZ SINGER (USA 1927, Alan Crosland), jenem Film, der bis heute als prägend für die Ablösung des Stummfilms angesehen wird, hatte THE BROADWAY MELODY (USA 1929, Harry Beaumont) Premiere. Dieser Film wird heute als das erste Tonfilmmusical Hollywoods angesehen (Krogh Hansen 2010, 147) und gewann als erster Tonfilm auch den Academy Award für den besten Film. Das Filmmusical geht dabei regelmäßig über eine »bloße« Übertragung einer für die Bühne konzipierten Musiktheateraufführung hinaus und definiert ein eigenes Genre, das sowohl Adaptionen von Bühnenstücken als auch genuin für die Leinwand bzw. den Bildschirm entwickelte Stoffe umfasst. So entstand etwa das HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL-Franchise ursprünglich im Fernsehen (USA 2006, Kenny Ortega), erlebte mit HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 2 (USA 2007, Kenny Ortega) eine Fortsetzung, bevor es mit HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3: SENIOR YEAR (USA 2008, Kenny Ortega) sogar den Sprung aus dem Fernsehen in das Kino schaffte. Die US-Fernsehserie GLEE (USA 2009-2015) hingegen ist ein Beispiel dafür, dass musikalisches Erzählen nicht nur in Kieler Beiträge zur Filmmusikforschung 15: Music in TV Series & Music and Humour in Film and Tele!ision // #$ abgeschlossenen Filmen, sondern auch seriell funktionieren kann (Kassabian 2013, 63 ff). Tatsächlich gibt es zahlreiche andere Beispiele für Musicalepisoden insbesondere im seriellen Fernsehen (Kassabian 2013, 53 f). Andere Serien verwenden musikalisches Erzählen hingegen bewusst parodistisch. In mehreren Folgen von THE SIMPSONS (USA 1989-) etwa werden konkrete Musicals parodiert (z.

  • Tv Medical Dramas: Health Care As Soap Opera
    TV MEDICAL DRAMAS: HEALTH CARE AS SOAP OPERA LESLEY HENDERSON ‘Medicine is drama, doctors are human, and patients are trouble or troubled’.1 he medical drama occupies an extraordinary position in contemporary Ttelevision. The format attracts multiple awards (ER became the most nominated series in TV history, earning 122 Emmy nominations and 22 Awards) and breaks new ground in television aesthetics (St Elsewhere popularised pedeconferencing – the ‘walk and talk’ tracking shot to signify the supposedly frenetic pace of hospital life). The genre is economically important, too, as medical dramas consistently attract large audiences with ‘gold dust’ demographics for advertisers – the notoriously elusive 18-49 years. These programmes deliver high drama but also convey important messages about health and illness, often highlighting political issues which are neglected in television news and documentary formats. Thus the humanitarian crisis in the Darfur region of Sudan – underreported by the US news media – was brought to ER viewers through characters Dr John Carter and Dr Gregory Pratt, who were depicted working in a refugee camp trying to protect their patients from the Janjaweed militia (series 12, 2006). As these fictional scenes were being transmitted to global audiences, George Clooney – formerly ER’s Dr Doug Ross – spoke out at public rallies to stimulate support for American intervention in Darfur, thus blurring the lines between drama and the material world still further.2 Shows such as House MD are dissected in meticulous detail by fans and medical professionals on websites filled with endless analysis of the plausibility of plot and procedure.3 The medical drama is a commercial product that not only reflects our socio-cultural and economic environment but also illuminates wider changes in broadcasting culture.

    TV LAND GETS ITS “SCRUBS” ON AND GOES ON ROUNDS DURING A LABOR DAY MARATHON ON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 1 New York, NY, August 25, 2008 - TV Land’s got just what the doctor ordered with a prescription sure to tickle the funny bone when “Scrubs” premieres on Labor Day with a 7-hour marathon on Monday, September 1. Join J.D., Turk, Elliot, Carla, Dr. Cox and the entire Sacred Heart Hospital staff beginning at 4 p.m. (ET/PT) as they heal patients, mend broken hearts and keep viewers in stitches. “Scrubs” joins TV Land’s line-up in its regularly scheduled timeslot of 9:00 p.m. (ET/PT) from Monday to Friday beginning Tuesday, September 2. “‘Scrubs’ is the perfect contemporary acquisition for TV Land as the network continues to grow as the ultimate entertainment network for people in their 40s and 50s,” states Larry W. Jones, president, TV Land. “Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, Donald Faison and the entire cast is at their comedic best and their neurotic and side-splitting antics keep viewers laughing all night long. The quick-wit and humor of this series definitely appeals to our audience, and it is precisely the reason why TV Land voted it the winner of the 2001 Future Classic Award.” “Scrubs” follows the dynamic daily routines and bizarre happenings of the Sacred Heart hospital staff. Having premiered in October 2001, the series continues to be a prime time network hit as John “J.D.” Dorian (Zach Braff) narrates the everyday personal and professional challenges that he and surgical intern and college buddy Chris Turk (Donald Faison) and the ambitious yet quirky intern Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke) face.
