  • 1 Bound by Oath | Season 2 | Episode 5: Under Color of Law John​: In
    1 Bound By Oath | Season 2 | Episode 5: Under Color of Law John:​ In 1958, at 5:45 in the morning, Chicago police burst into the home of James and Flossie Monroe and dragged them out of bed at gunpoint. And they scared the hell out James and Flossie’s six children. Houston Stevens:​ The children we made a lot of noise. We screamed. We did a lot of yelling to alert all the neighbors. Cause we didn't know who these were. It was 14 white guys armed with pistols drawn. Jacqui Abrams:​ They pulled out a picture and showed me a picture. “Is this James Monroe?” Of course it is! Yes, that's him, but who are you? Ralph Stevens:​ All I can say is that I tried to block it out like a nightmare because it felt like, and I lived that way for many, many years growing up, like it was a nightmare. It was denial -- my way to suppress and deny how traumatic it was. John:​ James Monroe had not committed the crime he’d been accused of, and the police did not have a warrant to search his home or arrest him. So the family sued, seeking damages from the officers. But rather than suing in state court, James and Flossie did something that Congress had said they could do way back in 1871. They filed suit against the officers in federal court under Section One of the Ku Klux Klan Act. Today Section One is known as Section 1983. And it’s one of the most important and most frequently litigated civil rights laws on the books.

  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

(2) Each week during football season, thousands of students take to the field to display their musical and marching talents. (3) These same students also compete in local, state, and national competitions and exhibitions. (4) However, marching bands aren’t found in just this state or even just this country. (5) But in one country there are marchers who skip the music component all together. (6) Students at Japan’s Nippon Sports Science University, NSSU, participate in an intricate marching-like exhibition known as precision walking. (7) NSSU students have perfected the nearly 50-year-old tradition of shuudan koudou, which means “collective action.” (8) The collective action is a carefully choreographed display of synchronized walking. (9) Identically dressed students walk forward and backward to form lines and shapes, even crossing between one another at times.

    Reporters Without Borders http://www.rsf.org/pakistan-another-bomb-attack- on-express-02-07-2014,46574.html Asia - Pakistan Targeted yet again Another bomb attack on Express News TV’s Peshawar bureau chief 2 July 2014 The latest in a nearly year-old string of attacks on Express News personnel and installations Reporters Without Borders condemns today’s bombing of the home of Jamshed Baghwan, Express News TV’s bureau chief in Peshawar. It was the third attempt to target Baghwan and his family with an explosive device since March and the latest in an 11-month-old string of attacks on Express Media group personnel and installations, some of which have been claimed by the Taliban. Left in a milk pack in front of the house by men on a motorcycle, today’s home-made bomb damaged the outside of the building but caused no injuries when it was set off by a timer at 11 am. “We are outraged by this latest murder attempt targeting an Express News journalist and his family,” said Benjamin Ismaïl, the head of the Reporters Without Borders Asia-Pacific desk. “We urge the authorities to react quickly and to assign security personnel to protect their home.” “My family members and I are all safe, thank God,” Baghwan told RWB. “More than one kilogram of explosives was used in the attack. Today’s blast was bigger than the previous ones.” Asked who he thought was behind the bombs, Baghwan said: “The enemy is unknown. I am clueless as to why these elements are targeting my house.

  • Initiating a Missed Approach Below Mda
    Issue No. 9 INITIATING A MISSED APPROACH BELOW MDA So there you are, on approach, inside the FAF and below MDA. You saw the runway and began descent, but it is raining, visibility is marginal and things are murky and scuddy (technical terms). Wind is directly across the runway at 11G18 and you are crabbing down, passengers are nervous. But you are holding the CDI in the center and maintaining control. Over the runway you go into your wing-low sideslip for the crosswind landing, things are going pretty well and then whoops a big gust destabilizes you so you abort the landing. Now what do you do, go missed or go around for another landing attempt? To provide some context, let’s attach the scenario to an interesting little airport, Andrews- Murphy Airport, NC (KRHP). The instrument approach procedure (IAP) and the takeoff minima and obstacle departure procedure are shown here. This airport is nestled in a scenic valley surrounded by mountains, which are quite close on the north. A topo map can be viewed here or just go to the TopoZone website and search for Andrews, NC, or go to the airport lat/long of 3512N/08352W. You will notice that the MDA is 2329 feet above the runway. Now remember that obstacle protection on a missed approach procedure is based on going missed at the MAP at MDA with a minimum climb gradient of 200 feet per nautical mile. No obstacle protection is assured when you go missed below MDA or past the MAP. In fact, you are not assured of obstacle protection even above MDA if the missed is initiated below MDA or after the MAP.

  • Healthy Street Pilot Projects
    ANN ARBOR HEALTHY STREET PILOT PROJECTS Summary of Findings January 14, 2021 Prepared by SmithGroup 1 HEALTHY STREET PILOT PROJECTS City Council passed R-20-158 “Resolution to Promote Safe Social Distancing Outdoors in Ann Arbor” on May 4, 2020. This resolution directed staff to (among other things) “develop recommendations and implementation strategies on comprehensive lane or street re-configurations (and report as soon as possible concerning these recommendations and strategies), including the possible cost of such options, the research conducted, and public input received, and other relevant data.” In response to this directive, City and Downtown Development Authority (DDA) staff gave a presentation on recommendations on June 15, 2020 along with two accompanying resolutions: “Resolution to Advance Healthy Streets in Downtown” and “Resolution to Advance Healthy Streets Outside Downtown.” These resolutions were passed by City Council on July 6, 2020. On August 27th the Ann Arbor DDA and the City of Ann Arbor began installing a series of healthy street pilot projects in the downtown area to provide space for safe physical distancing for bicycle and pedestrian travel. These projects, with the approval of City Council, reconfigured traffic lanes to accommodate temporary pedestrian and bicycle facilities, such as non-motorized travel lanes, two-way bikeways, and separated bike lanes. The pilot projects discussed in this report include the following locations: • Miller/Catherine Bikeway (from 1st Street to Division) • Division Street/Broadway Bikeway (from Packard to Maiden Lane) • S. Main Separated Bike Lanes (from William to Stadium) • State & North University Bikeway (from William Street to Thayer) • Packard Bike Lanes (from State to Hill) • East Packard Project (from Platt to Eisenhower) The pilot projects were designed and implemented in alignment with national guidance, City policies and plans, and the DDA’s adopted values for the People-Friendly Streets program.
