But the Leeds University Spanish finalist was astonished when the machine kept giving him more and more money. 1-k explained: wanted to close the account so I kept asking tier money until it would give me no more. First I asked for a hundred pounds each time. then two hundred pounds. and then five hundred pounds a time.- Eventually Dan bagged £10.0(X) from the Barclays machine before it ran out of money and he instantly nipped into the Blenheim Terrace bank to open an Instant Saver account to put it in. He then moved next door to the Midland Bank machine which proved to be equally generous.

  • Globalization and the Emergence of Japanese Influence In
    GLOBALIZATION AND THE EMERGENCE OF JAPANESE INFLUENCE IN AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE By GINA CELESTE O’MELIA A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Global Affairs Written under the direction of R. Brian Ferguson And approved by ________________________________________ _________________________________________ _________________________________________ _________________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May 2016 © 2016 Gina O’Melia All Rights Reserved Images appearing in “Appendix A” belong to their respective copyright holders and are being used under the precepts of Fair Use found in Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976. ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Globalization and the Emergence of Japanese Influence in American Popular Culture By Gina Celeste O’Melia Dissertation Director: Dr. R. Brian Ferguson The contemporary and prevailing theories that critique globalization often focus on a central concept of the United States having an exceptional and pivotal role in the mechanisms of globalization. However, while Hegemonic Imperialism scholarship focuses on the concept of the United States exporting its cultural wares in order to transform foreign cultures into a homogeneous one, the fact that the United States’ own popular culture is being transformed by globalization is often overlooked. As better predicted by theories outside of this hegemonic imperialistic lens, American popular culture has been and continues to be influenced by Japanese cultural products. This study sought to explore this influence through a series of approaches. The first was through a brief survey of the shared American-Japanese historical and media relationships. Saturday Morning cartoons were then analyzed through both a quantitative content analysis and qualitative genre based analysis from 1987-2012.
