[email protected] Kadeem Swenson looks forward to graduating from D.C.’s Ballou STAY High School in June and is applying for admission to college. He gets good grades and his principal considers him a promising student with a good future. But the strapping, 6-foot-tall 18-year-old, who came out as gay at age 16, says he spent most of the past year hiding a part of his life that became far more difficult to deal with than his sexual orientation. Forced by his parents to leave his home in Waldorf, Md., two years ago after he told them he’s gay, Swenson stayed with friends and relatives in D.C. and North Carolina for several months. He and his grandmother then prevailed upon his mother to enroll him in Bal- lou STAY, one of the D.C. public school system’s vocational and aca- demic high schools that offer classes at night.

  • Video Games and the Mobilization of Anxiety and Desire
    PLAYING THE CRISIS: VIDEO GAMES AND THE MOBILIZATION OF ANXIETY AND DESIRE BY ROBERT MEJIA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Kent A. Ono, Chair Professor John Nerone Professor Clifford Christians Professor Robert A. Brookey, Northern Illinois University ABSTRACT This is a critical cultural and political economic analysis of the video game as an engine of global anxiety and desire. Attempting to move beyond conventional studies of the video game as a thing-in-itself, relatively self-contained as a textual, ludic, or even technological (in the narrow sense of the word) phenomenon, I propose that gaming has come to operate as an epistemological imperative that extends beyond the site of gaming in itself. Play and pleasure have come to affect sites of culture and the structural formation of various populations beyond those conceived of as belonging to conventional gaming populations: the workplace, consumer experiences, education, warfare, and even the practice of politics itself, amongst other domains. Indeed, the central claim of this dissertation is that the video game operates with the same political and cultural gravity as that ascribed to the prison by Michel Foucault. That is, just as the prison operated as the discursive site wherein the disciplinary imaginary was honed, so too does digital play operate as that discursive site wherein the ludic imperative has emerged. To make this claim, I have had to move beyond the conventional theoretical frameworks utilized in the analysis of video games.

    ISSUE 22 THE LAST POST INTERVIEWS KEN DONE DAVID WILLIAMSON LINDA GEORGE COVID–19 WE LOOK AT THE EFFECT ON AUSTRALIA OF THE PANDEMIC THAT IS SWEEPING THE WORLD BUSHFIRES OUR WORST NATURAL DISASTER IN HISTORY TRAILBLAZERS 100 INSPIRING WOMEN THE BATTLES FOR KOKODA THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE END OF WW2 The Last Post Story Through bloodlines, The Last Post magazine started at Gallipoli. Its acorn then fought with the 2/10th in Milne Bay, Buna and Balikpapan and trekked the Kokoda in WW2. By the late-sixties, The Last Post magazine was ready to be born. Raymond Thorsby Ross, who had fought in PNG and the son of Joseph Thorsby Ross, who had fought at Gallipoli, leased a small office in George Street, Sydney. Raymond had decided that a small magazine, designed to help RSLs and their members, should be introduced in New South Wales. To do this he would need advertising to help pay printing and distribution costs. Daily, Raymond would take the train from suburban Chatswood to the city and phone local businesses and sporting clubs, asking for their support. This ex-digger and RSL member worked long hours to get each edition out and was effectively the magazine’s editor, graphic designer and distributor. In 1974, Raymond and his partner moved to Scarborough in suburban Perth and continued The Last Post in Western Australia until his death in 1983. Twenty-eight years later, Raymond’s son and Joseph’s grandson, Gregory Thorsby Ross brought his father’s magazine back to life. Greg had lived with his father as a 15-year old, when he started working as a copy-boy and cadet journalist at The Sydney Morning Herald.

  • CRUNCH Timeit's August 23. Fall Semester Is Looming. Birds Are
    InterComInterCom September 2012 Newsletter Published by College Communications: Contact Lee Rasizer at (303) 360-4728 or [email protected] It’s August 23. Fall semester is looming. Birds are chirping. CRUNCH TIME Loons are howling. And the last-minute rush is on at the Administration Building. As chaos goes, this wasn’t the pressed doors of a Black Friday sale or daily life on the Justin Bieber security detail. This is more like multiple loose ends, the shoelaces of a kindergarten class variety: Tie ‘em up; send ‘em off. It’s Thursday, Aug. 23, two business days before fall se- mester classes officially begin at Community College of Aurora. Students need their ID card photos. Procrastinators seek that course they just have to have but which may have filled long ago. Core classes such as English, Math, Biol- ogy and others that are integral degree prereq- uisites often fall within those parameters, even though they’re offered on numerous occasions. Some financial aid requirements are only now being realized by late-arriving students and ad- dressed with a countdown clock accompaniment. But CCA’s staff has the wherewithal to deal with these issues courteously and professionally. If this particular day, and many others like it, has its own soundtrack, Kathy Jackson, CCA’s official greeter, is the featured artist. The self-proclaimed mother of the col- lege doles out “baby dolls,” “dears” and “love yous” even while activity swirls around her, confidently sending people in all directions like an Administration Building version of the NFL’s Peyton Manning, who’ll famously flap like a bird at the line of scrimmage to ensure everyone is on the same page.
