Spotlight on Greater Puget Sound SPOTLIGHT ON GREATER PUGET SOUND WELCOME TO GREATER PUGET SOUND, WASHINGTON Quirky. Hip. Eclectic. Lush. Rugged. Intellectual. Artsy. These are just a few of the words one might use to describe the Greater Puget Sound area, which includes Everett, Olympia, Renton, and Seattle. These cities combine a vibrant urban life with a strong connection to their lush environments.

Instead of heavy torrents, rain typically comes in the form of a constant, light drizzle, escalating to thunder an average of only seven days per year. Although it does snow occasionally, accumulation is rare. Average High/Low Temperatures January 47oF / 37oF Low 76oF / 56oF Average Precipitation Rain 37 in. Snow 6.8 in. GEOGRAPHY The Greater Puget Sound area is a geographical hodge-podge that marries islands with mountains and water with forests. The vicinity is home to a North American rain forest that provides a dense green contrast to the modern cities around Puget Sound. GLOBAL MOBILITY SOLUTIONS l SPOTLIGHT ON GREATER PUGET SOUND l 02 SPOTLIGHT ON GREATER PUGET SOUND COST OF LIVING Seattle isn’t large as it is only the 15th largest metro area in the United States, but it’s growing fast. The result is a fairly steep cost of living. However, the surrounding cities in the Greater Puget Sound area may prove to be much more affordable. Additionally, each city in the Greater Puget Sound area has a utility index that is less expensive than the national average.

In fact, the city offers a rare hybrid of urban culture and outdoor adventure that is satisfying to athletes and intellectuals alike. Your inner tourist, for example, can ride to the top of the Space Needle, watch fishmongers throw fish at Pike Place Market, or sip a cup of coffee at the original Starbucks. The outdoorsman in you, meanwhile, can sail on Lake Union or hike Mt. Rainier. And, if you’re still looking for more to do, you can satisfy your inner artist at one of Seattle’s many museums, like Chihuly Garden. Each city in the area has it’s unique charm and it’s own festivals.

    FRASIER: A CULTURAL HISTORY Joseph J. Darowski and Kate Darowski Lanham, MD: Rowman & Littlefield, 2017 ROBERT MURTAGH Universidad de Almería [email protected] 177 Part of independent publisher Rowman & Littlefield’s “Cultural History of Television” series that (according to their website) “will focus on iconic television shows” from the 1950s to the present that have had a lasting impact on world culture, Frasier: A Cultural History joins a collection of extant publications on defining sitcoms such as Mad Men, Breaking Bad and Star Trek. The authors of the text in question, Joseph J. Darowski and Kate Darowski, are self-confessed Frasier fans with a background in different ambits of cultural study (the former as editor of the “Ages of Superheroes” essay series and author of X-Men and the Mutant Metaphor: Race and Gender in the Comic Books and the latter having researched the history of decorative arts and design). Above all, they share a mutual appreciation for all things Crane. From a structural perspective, the book is divided into two parts: “Part I: Making A Classic” and “Part II: Under Analysis”. Each section is further subdivided into four separate topics. The first deals with: the evolution of Cheers to the emergence of Frasier Crane; the story behind the eclectic cast; character profiles of Frasier, Niles, Martin and Eddy; and finally, a discussion of Daphne and Roz. The second part, as the name suggests, is more academically inclined with chapters examining ongoing character development in the Crane household; an in-depth look at Frasier’s apartment from structural and aesthetic perspectives, as well as in contrast to Niles’s home at the Montana; an analysis of set decoration, particularly chairs; and lastly, the representation of women, gender and race.

DESCRIPTORS *Ability Identification; Economically Disadvantaged; Elementary Secondary Education; Ethnic Groups; *Evaluation Methods; *Gifted; Limited English Speaking; *Minority Groups; Referral; *Student Evaluation; Teacher Attitudes; Test Bias IDENTIFIERS *Disproportionate Representation (Spec Educ) ABSTRACT This review of research and literature examines issues related to the identification of potentially gifted students from groups most likely to be underrepresented in gifted education programs, including racial and ethnic minority groups,economically disadvantaged students, and those with limited English proficiency. Three major reasons for underrepresentation are identified and discussed: (1) test bias (the most frequent attribution for underrepresentation in programs);(2) selective referrals (usually because of teacher attitudes and knowledge about minority students and the type of school students are likely to attend); and (3) reliance on deficit-based paradigms (making recognition of the strengths of minority children less likely). Recommendations for modifying traditional assessment procedures include the use of multiple criteria and nontraditional measures and procedures and modification of selection criteria.

Daniel Granof (MBA candidate ’03) pre- pared this case under the supervision of Professor Olav Sorenson for the purpose of facilitating class dis- cussion, rather than illustrating either effective or ineffective handling of a business situation. Fox Television Network In 1985 Rupert Murdoch, after acquiring the Twentieth Century Fox studio for a total of $575 million through his holding company, News Corporation (NewsCorp), decided to start a fourth broadcast network on the advice of Barry Diller, the highly sought-after ex- ecutive recently recruited to Fox from industry leader Paramount Studios. NewsCorp purchased Metromedia from media mogul John Kluge, gaining control of seven key in- dependent TV stations in several large East Coast cities and Los Angeles. Fox quickly lined up 88 additional independent stations to become its network affiliates and launched the Fox Television Network in 1986. Initially the network reached only 60% of the coun- try and aired original network programming only one night a week, on Sunday. Everyone in the industry thought Diller and Murdoch crazy. At the time the big three networks had a combined television viewing share of 93%. To attract viewers away from them, Fox chose to go after two key demographics: youth, a group coveted by advertis- ers, and African-Americans. As Diller said, “We had to air shows that demanded your attention, that yanked you by the throat to get you to change the channel.”1 Peter Chernin, a loyal executive who would eventually become Murdoch’s second in command, concurred: “We’re in the attention-getting business.
