    Prof. Jobbitt – HIS493S A. Justin Del Giudice, 1 Springfield: A Constructed Community within American Pop-Culture and the Nature of Identity "I'm never going to find that tree, this whole raid's been as useless as that yellow-shaped rock over there...hey, there's a lemon behind that rock...the tree"-Bart Simpson As Bart so eloquently put it, the uselessness of the yellow shaped rock can be used as a metaphor to represent the Simpsons as a cultural phenomenon. If we take the Simpsons at face value, simply being a childish cartoon show that is nothing more than comedic entertainment, of no concern to nationalist study, it becomes a “useless rock” like the one found by Bart. But if we delve deeper using analytical tools of nationalism to deconstruct the Simpsons, looking beyond the façade of the “rock” which impedes our analysis, it is soon evident that the Simpsons as a case-study is as useful as the concealed lemon used to symbolize the identity of Springfield as a constructed community. 1 Whether the show was intentionally filled with nationalist rhetoric by the writing staff or if it is by pure coincidence, it makes no difference, the examples are abundant. There are four notable episodes which provide examples of Springfield as a constructed community – a land area with defined boundaries whose people share a common identity, traditions, symbols, and ceremonies of commemoration used to support these idealized notions of who the people of Springfield are and what their town represents to them in terms of nationalist principles.

    The Simpsons Tapped out - Analysis and Proposed Events Overview

    The Simpsons Tapped Out - Analysis and Proposed Events Overview Players like myself have faithfully enjoyed The Simpsons Tapped Out (TSTO) for several years. The developers have continued to expand the game and provide updates in response to player feedback. This has been evident in tools such as the IRS Building tap radius, the Introduction Unemployment Office Job Manager and the Cut & Paste feature, all of which are greatly appreciated by players and have extended the playability of TSTO for many of us who would have otherwise found the game too tedious to continue once their Springfields grew so large. Notably, as respects Events, positive reactive efforts were identifiable in the 2017 Winter Event and the modified use of craft currency. As evident from the forums, many dedicated and heavily-invested players have grown tired with some of TSTO's stale mechanics and gameplay, as well as the proliferation of uninspired content, much of which has little to no place in Springfield, if even the world of "The Simpsons." This Premise player attitude is often displayed in the later stages of major Events as players begin to sense monotony due to a lack in changes throughout an Event, resulting in a feeling that one is merely grinding through the game to stock up on largely unwanted Items. Content-driven major Events geared toward "The Simpsons" version of Springfield with changes of pace, more like mini-Events, and the Solution addition of new Effects, enabling a variety of looks while injecting a new degree of both familiarity and customization for players. The proposed Events and gameplay changes are steeped in canonical content rather than original content.

    Kristi Yamaguchi

    Kristi Yamaguchi Kristi Yamaguchi by ReadWorks Kristi Yamaguchi was born in Hayward, California, on July 12, 1971. She was born with a condition called clubfoot. Her feet were turned inwards towards the middle of her body. She wore casts on her legs to help correct the condition and started ice skating when she was six as a form of physical therapy. Little did she know that she would win an Olympic gold medal in figure skating one day! As she got older and continued skating, Kristi fell in love with the sport. One of her favorite toys was a doll of Dorothy Hamill, a famous American figure skater and one of Kristi's childhood idols. She also looked up to Tiffany Chin, who was the first non- white skater to place first in the U.S. Figure Skating Championships. When Kristi began competing in figure skating, she skated in two different events. She competed in the pairs event with her partner, Rudy Galindo, and in This is a photo of Kristi Yamaguchi participating in the ladies' singles event, where she skated alone. a fashion show for an awareness campaign.
