From: Linda Lamontagne [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2009 2:57 PM To: McAIlister, William D (GOV) Subject: FAMILY GUY - GOVENOR SARAH PALIN Hi Mr. McAIlister, On behalf of my producers Seth MacFarlane, Steve Callaghan and Mark Hentemann, we would be honored if Governor SARAH PLAIN would join us and Rush Limbaugh for the second episode of the eighth season of FAMILY GUY. As you and Ms. Palin may or may not know, Family Guy is the animated series in the Fox animation domination lineup on Sunday night and is entering it’s eight and half season. We’ve been very fortunate to have an incredible group of talent lend their voices to our series i.e. Gore Vidal, James Woods, Rob Lowe, Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase, Hugh Downs, Robert Downey, Jr., Carol Channing, Chace Crawford, Hugh Laurie, Drew Barrymore, Bob Costas, Patrick Stewart, Barry Manilow, Richard Dreyfuss, Will Ferrell, Jimmy Kimmel, Jay Leno, Carrie Fisher, Lucas Grabeel, Amanda Bynes, Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson, Simon Cowell, Roy Scheider, Frank Sinatra Jr., Lauren Conrad, Whitney Port, Audrina Partridge, Sally Field, Jimmy Kimmel, Jay Leno, Regis Philbin, Anne Hathaway, Carrie Fisher, James Lipton, David Spade, Sam Neill, Bryce Dallas Howard, Seth Rogen, Ed Helms, Frank Sinatra, Jr., Amanda Bynes, Bryan Cranston, Lucas Grabeel, Ashley Tisdale, among many, many others. In this particular episode, Brian(voiced by Seth MacFarlane) is convinced by Rush Limbaugh (voicing himself) that conservatism is the only way. A quick convert, Brian joins Rush at a Republican convention and we meet Governor Palin, in a most favorable way. As Seth and our talented team of writers are currently outlining the episode, we would happily pitch the idea to Governor Palin is she is interested. Many thanks. Cheers, Linda Linda Lamontagne 323.857.8841 o 310.733.6925 cel PRA GSP02 0030890.

(August 2012) Evleen Michelle Nasir, B.A., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Kirsten Pullen There is a discursive formation of incapability that surrounds senior women’s sexuality. Senior women are incapable of reproduction, mastering their bodies, or arousing sexual desire in themselves or others. The senior actresses’ I explore in the case studies below insert their performances of self and their everyday lives into the large and complicated discourse of sex, producing a counter-narrative to sexually inactive senior women. Their performances actively embody their sexuality outside the frame of a character. This thesis examines how senior actresses’ performances of sexuality extend a discourse of sexuality imposed on older woman by mass media. These women are the public face of senior women’s sexual agency.

    TD Jazz Concerts John Pizzarelli and Freddy Cole: Celebrating the centenary of Nat King Cole @ 100 Thursday, February 14, 2019 at 8:00pm Pre-concert Talk at 7:00pm This is the 913th concert in Koerner Hall John Pizzarelli, vocals & guitar Mike Karn, bass Konrad Paszkudzki, piano Freddy Cole, piano & vocals Elias Bailey, bass Randy Napoleon, guitar Quentin Baxtor, drums John Pizzarelli World-renowned guitarist and singer John Pizzarelli, established as one of the prime contemporary interpreters of the Great American Songbook, has expanded that repertoire by including the music of Paul McCartney, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Tom Waits, Antônio Carlos Jobim, and The Beatles. Having concentrated on the music of Paul McCartney, Johnny Mercer, and Frank Sinatra over the last two years, Pizzarelli has returned to the bossa nova of Jobim with his 2017 release Sinatra & Jobim @ 50. With co- vocalist Daniel Jobim, grandson of the legendary Brazilian composer, the two explore songs Sinatra and Jobim recorded, as well as add new songs flavoured with the spirit of the classic Francis Albert Sinatra and Antonio Carlos Jobim album. Pizzarelli has toured North America, South America, Asia, and Europe, performing shows centered on Frank Sinatra’s centennial, the songs of Johnny Mercer, and a McCartney program, in which his quartet is joined by strings and a horn section. He also tours on a double bill with pianist Ramsey Lewis. While plenty of jazz greats influenced his work, Nat King Cole has been Pizzarelli’s hero and foundation over the last 25 years. He devoted two albums to his music, Dear Mr.

  • Models of Time Travel
    MODELS OF TIME TRAVEL A COMPARATIVE STUDY USING FILMS Guy Roland Micklethwait A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The Australian National University July 2012 National Centre for the Public Awareness of Science ANU College of Physical and Mathematical Sciences APPENDIX I: FILMS REVIEWED Each of the following film reviews has been reduced to two pages. The first page of each of each review is objective; it includes factual information about the film and a synopsis not of the plot, but of how temporal phenomena were treated in the plot. The second page of the review is subjective; it includes the genre where I placed the film, my general comments and then a brief discussion about which model of time I felt was being used and why. It finishes with a diagrammatic representation of the timeline used in the film. Note that if a film has only one diagram, it is because the different journeys are using the same model of time in the same way. Sometimes several journeys are made. The present moment on any timeline is always taken at the start point of the first time travel journey, which is placed at the origin of the graph. The blue lines with arrows show where the time traveller’s trip began and ended. They can also be used to show how information is transmitted from one point on the timeline to another. When choosing a model of time for a particular film, I am not looking at what happened in the plot, but rather the type of timeline used in the film to describe the possible outcomes, as opposed to what happened.

  • 275. – Part One
    275. – PART ONE 275. Clifford (1994) Okay, here’s the deal: I don’t know you, you don’t know me, but if you are anywhere near a television right now I need you to stop whatever it is that you’re doing and go watch “Clifford” on HBO Max. This is another film that has a 10% score on Rotten Tomatoes which just leads me to believe that all of the critics who were popular in the nineties didn’t have a single shred of humor in any of their non-existent funny bones. I loved this movie when I was seven, and I love it even more when I’m thirty-three. It’s genius. Martin Short (who at the time was forty-four) plays a ten-year-old hyperactive nightmare child from hell. I mean it, this kid might actually be the devil. He is straight up evil, conniving, manipulative and all-told probably causes no less than ten million dollars-worth of property damage. And, again, the plot is so simple – he just wants to go to Dinosaur World. There are so many comedy films with such complicated plots and motivations for their characters, but the simplistic genius of “Clifford” is just this – all this kid wants on the entire planet is to go to Dinosaur World. That’s it. The movie starts with him and his parents on an plane to Hawaii for a business trip, and Clifford knows that Dinosaur Land is in Los Angeles, therefore he causes so much of a ruckus that the plane has to make an emergency landing.
