The Writer's Little Helper - Writer's Digest It first aired on the Fox network in the United States on October 3, Bart is prescribed a psychostimulant drug called Focusyn a parody of Ritalinand initially The Writers Little Helper paying more attention to his studies. After a while however, Bart starts turning psychotic and is convinced that Major League Baseball is watching over the people of Springfield. The episode was directed by director Mark Kirkland and was The Writers Little Helper first episode staff writer George Meyer received a sole writing credit for since the season 5 episode " Bart's Inner The Writers Little Helper ". Meyer, who was facing some psychological difficulties while writing the episode, felt so dissatisfied with the episode's first draft that he turned it in with a pseudonym. The episode satirizes the perceived misdiagnosis of behavioral disorders in children, which was a controversial topic at the time the episode was written. The episode's title is a parody of The Rolling Stones song " Mother's Little Helper ", which was also written on the topic of psychological medication. Following its broadcast, the episode was positively received by critics. In response to the The Writers Little Helper, five months after the episode originally aired, United States president Bill Clinton held the first ever White House conference on Mental Health. Then a skit featuring Ned and Maude Flanders goes awry. Suddenly, a tidal wave bursts out, which Bart rides a basketball hoop on having flooded the gym, drenching the school yard and saving Ned with Bart laughing hysterically at this display. Furious at the mess Bart made, Skinner has Homer and Marge come to the school, where they learn Bart has been diagnosed with attention deficit disorder ADD. Principal Skinner tells Marge and Homer that Bart must take a radical, untested new behavioral medicine called Focusyn or he will have to expel him. After several failed The Writers Little Helper by Homer, Marge convinces Bart to take the medication and his behavior immediately improves, paying attention in school, being respectful to his parents, and tutoring a Navajo boy in his spare time. One night, however, Marge and Homer come home from a date to find Bart in his room wrapped in aluminum foil and coat hangers on the ceiling. Suffering from drug psychosis and paranoiahe claims Major League The Writers Little Helper is spying on the town using a satellite. The doctors recommend that Bart go off Focusyn, but he refuses, swallows several handfuls of Focusyn and runs away. Bart wanders onto a U. Army base and manages to hijack a tank. He cuts a swath of destruction through the town and eventually stops at the school. There, he points the tank's cannon into the sky and shoots down a Major League Baseball satellite; inside are detailed documents on everybody's behaviors. Mark McGwire appears, distracts the citizens with a long home runand hides the evidence under his cap. Marge takes Bart off Focusyn for good and puts him back on Ritalin. Major League Baseball, however, still spies on the Simpson familydue to an autographed bat McGwire gave Bart that has a hidden camera. It was first broadcast on the Fox network in the United States on October 3, After the season 5 episode " Bart's Inner Child ", Meyer got "a little burned out on writing scripts", so he The Writers Little Helper "Brother's Little Helper" in order to "try [his] hand again". To show the side effects Focusyn had on Bart, the animators made slight changes to his face as the episode progressed. It is first seen in the scene where Bart is reading "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Pre-teens": a cheek line is added just under his eyes to suggest that he is starting to change. In another scene, Bart can be seen speed reading and later on, the animators drew him with "mini-pupils". The staff discussed whether Bart's pupils would be bigger or smaller than normal while he is on the drug. The writers The Writers Little Helper on smaller pupils and, according to Kirkland, "several model sheets were going back and forth over the fax machines" until the staff were satisfied with the size of Bart's pupils while influenced by the drug. In the scene where he escapes the laboratory, Bart can be seen swallowing a handful of pills on his way out. Originally, Bart was supposed to "upend" an entire jar of Focusyn, but, according to Meyer, the censors wouldn't allow The Writers Little Helper. Mike Scullyan executive producer and the show runner for the episode, commented that McGwire was The Writers Little Helper the biggest man [he'd] ever seen" and that he "did a great job for [them]". Clubthe '90s saw a "dramatic increase" in diagnoses of behavioral disorders, such as ADHDin children, and debates over whether or not to medicate children with concentration difficulties were heated. In the scene, The Writers Little Helper is revealed that the general populace of the school is medicated for various misdiagnosed behavior disorders. He stated that "for all I know, the drugs help [the children] and help the world. Down the line. Focusyn, the fictional psychoactive drug that is prominently featured throughout the episode, is based on the real-life medicine Ritalinwhich is used to treat disorders such The Writers Little Helper ADHD. A scene in the episode shows Marge standing in front of the tank Bart has stolen. The scene is a reference to Tank Manthe anonymous man who stood in the way of a column of tanks the morning after the Chinese military forcibly removed pro-democracy protesters from Beijing 's Tiananmen Square. Other things referenced include the film Showgirlswhich Homer and Marge go to see. Despite being the most watched program of the network, the ratings were considered disappointing by the Deseret News.

It seemed more like two months. At times, even two weeks. Why? Because even though I have worked in TV for more than three decades, I have never seen our industry undergo such extraordinary — and extraordinarily exciting — changes as it has in recent years. Everywhere you turn, the vanguard is disrupting the old guard with an astonishing new technology, an amazing new show, an inspired new way to structure a business deal. This is not to imply that the more established segments of our industry have been pushed aside. On the contrary, the broadcast and cable networks continue to produce terrific work that is heralded by critics and rewarded each year at the Emmys. And broadcast networks still command the largest viewing audience across all of their platforms. With our medium thriving as never before, this is a great time to work in television, and a great time to be part of the Television Academy. Consider the 65th Emmy Awards. The CBS telecast, hosted by the always-entertaining Neil Patrick Harris, drew our largest audience since 2005.

Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.

    bsix 1. Fahne SL 26 05.12.2011 324 Mathias Clasen “Can’t Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me” Telling Scary Stories Mathias Clasen “Among the earliest forms of human self-awareness was the awareness of being meat.” (Quammen 2004, p. 3) I. Lost in the Woods Ordinary people rarely get lost in the woods during wild witch-hunts. Never- theless, this is basically the plot line of the stupendously successful horror film The Blair Witch Project (1999),1 which was produced for $35,000 and grossed almost a quarter of a billion US dollars worldwide.2 Why would any- one pay good money to sit in for an hour and a half on such a film? Why would anyone care? The horror genre continues to draw large audiences in literature, film, and interactive entertainment. It might seem strange that vicarious fear and anxiety are sought out by many people, maybe especially when considering the relative safety of modern urban environments. As William James pointed out in 1892, the “progress from brute to man is characterised by nothing so much as by the decrease in frequency of proper occasions for fear” (James 1920, p. 408). To understand the present, we must know the past and the forces that hammered and twisted our species into shape. One problem reliably faced by our forebears in the “environment of evolutionary adaptedness”–the hypothetical, statistical conglomerate of selective pressures which shaped Homo sapiens – was that of predators. Even if modern, civilized existence of- fers little in the way of true peril, our species grew up in a dangerous world.

This Is Not a Kwik-E-Mart! The Satire of Libraries, Librarians and Reference Desk Air-Hockey Tables Casey D. Hoeve Introduction Librarians are obsessed with stereotypes. Sometimes even so much so that, according to Gretchen Keer and Andrew Carlos, the fixation has become a stereotype within itself (63). The complexity of the library places the profession in a constant state of transition. Maintaining traditional organization systems while addressing new information trends distorts our image to the outside observer and leaves us vul- nerable to mislabeling and stereotypes. Perhaps our greatest fear in recognizing stereotypes is not that we appear invariable but that the public does not fully understand what services we can provide.
