  • An Astrological Report for Sanjaya Malakar Sanjaya Malakar Sep 10
    An astrological report for Sanjaya Malakar Sanjaya Malakar Sep 10, 1989 Time Unknown Seattle, WA 122W19'51" 47N36'23" Introduction I. How wondrous is the moment when you first look into the eyes of your newborn child! How miraculous is creation! What deep mysteries bring families together for a cycle of time! In Know Your Child , Kathie Garcia -- author, Montessori teacher, mother, and professional astrologer -- brings you a first-hand understanding of the trials and joys of parenthood. Being a parent is challenging. A job description for a parent would include something of almost every other job. When we study the child's astrological chart, we can instantly attune to how we can best guide him. Understanding leads to greater patience, a virtue of immeasurable worth in child-rearing! The child comes to us with his own birth chart, his particular life plan, which many believe is determined prior to birth. Nevertheless, there can be no doubt that environmental factors, decisions made by parents, education, and free will can change, alter, or mitigate the prophecy foreseen in the chart for better or for worse. In Know Your Child we search the chart with an eye for extracting the child's positive potential while turning around possible problem areas that could disrupt or hinder his best expression. 1 II. In creating this report, certain assumptions have been made: 1. Every child is unique. While most concepts will hit the nail on the head, not all you read will necessarily "fit." 2. It is assumed that you are loving parents, dedicated to helping your child realize his highest potential.

  • Body As Evidence
    Chapter 1 Pop Goes Democracy Mediating Race, Gender, and Nation on American Idol Parallels between presidential elections and the hit TV series are not hard to make. Indeed, they had become punch lines in comedyAmerican routines: Idol from Comedy Central’s Stephen Colbert complaining that it took too long to determine the next American Idol (in a gag that had audiences assuming he was referring to the next U.S. president) to ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel quipping that, after watching the vice presidential debate during the U.S. presidential campaign in 2008, he “voted four times for Sarah Palin and six times for David Archuleta,” in reference to the popular Republican vice presidential candidate and frontrunner contestant that year. Interestingly, movie critic RogerAmerican Ebert Idol’s mounted criticism against Palin for being “the American Idol candidate,” in which he argued the following: I think I might be able to explain some of Sarah Palin’s appeal. She’s the “American Idol” candidate. Consider. What defines an “American Idol” finalist? They’re good‑looking, work well on television, have a sunny personality, are fierce competitors, and so talented, why, they’re darned near the real thing. There’s a reason “American Idol” gets such high ratings. People identify with the contestants. They think, Hey, that could be me up there on that show! . My problem is, I don’t want to be up there. I don’t want a vice president who is darned near good enough. I want a vice president who is better, wiser, well‑traveled, has met world leaders, who three months ago had an opinion on Iraq.

  • Sample 1 Life Lessons by XXXXX If We Are an Average Class, in Fifty
    Sample 1 Life Lessons by XXXXX If we are an average class, in fifty years we could possibly be sitting at the eighth grade graduation of our grandchildren. At that time, we will probably not remember many of the details of our junior high experience. We may not remember that Drew Kluemke made it to the National Spelling Bee. We may not remember begin loyalists and patriots in history class with King Ibbotson. We probably won’t remember Mrs. Thomas’s earthquake enthusiasm that sent our third hour class under our desks. We are not likely to remember all of the times that our class made it to state in sports or that Mrs. Henderson and Mr. Farley almost led our scholastic bowl team to victory at regionals. But we should. There are also many aspects from pop culture that we also may not remember. Are we really going to remember our Taylor Swift ring tones or our addictions to My Space and text messaging? Do you think we will remember the “Fans vs. Favorites” season on Survivor , the Soulja Boy dance, or watching The Notebook and crying with our friends? We are not going to remember voting for Kevin Covais on American Idol during our sixth grade year or Sanjaya Malakar in seventh grade; and we might not even remember voting for David Archuleta this year. But there are some memorable life lessons we can take from American Idol . Four of these American Idol lessons illustrate what we have learned from Williamsville Junior High – lessons we should never forget.

  • How American Idol Constructs Celebrity, Collective Identity, and American Discourses
    AMERICAN IDEAL: HOW AMERICAN IDOL CONSTRUCTS CELEBRITY, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, AND AMERICAN DISCOURSES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Amanda Scheiner McClain May, 2010 i © Copyright 2010 by Amanda Scheiner McClain All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a three-pronged study examining American themes, celebrity, and collective identity associated with the television program American Idol. The study includes discourse analyses of the first seven seasons of the program, of the season seven official American Idol message boards, and of the 2002 and 2008 show press coverage. The American themes included a rags-to-riches narrative, archetypes, and celebrity. The discourse-formed archetypes indicate which archetypes people of varied races may inhabit, who may be sexual, and what kinds of sexuality are permitted. On the show emotional exhibitions, archetypal resonance, and talent create a seemingly authentic celebrity while discourse positioning confirms this celebrity. The show also fostered a complication-free national American collective identity through the show discourse, while the online message boards facilitated the formation of two types of collective identities: a large group of American Idol fans and smaller contestant-affiliated fan groups. Finally, the press coverage study found two overtones present in the 2002 coverage, derision and awe, which were absent in the 2008 coverage. The primary reasons for this absence may be reluctance to criticize an immensely popular show and that the American Idol success was no longer surprising by 2008. By 2008, American Idol was so ingrained within American culture that to deride it was to critique America itself.
