SGA Members Attend Lovelady Signs with KSU to Play by Taylor Edenfield Leadership Conference Division I Baseball Assistant Director of Student Life Article Submitted by Student Life Richard Lovelady, a sophomore from Hinesville, Ga., has the distinction of being the first East Georgia State College baseball player to sign with a Division I team. Beginning this fall, Lovelady will trade in the green and gold of his Bobcats uniform for the black and gold of the Kennesaw State University Owls. Lovelady was born into a military family at Fort Stewart, and grew up in Hinesville as the youngest of four children. He began playing sports at a very young age with his father, SFC Richard Lovelady, and after trying baseball, soc- cer, and football, the younger Richard decided to focus primarily on baseball. However, his road to the collegiate pitcher’s mound was not an easy one. In Little League, he played third base, a difficult position for a lefty like Richard. At age 11, he started his first game as a pitch- Richard Lovelady, EGSC Sophomore er and consequently hit 11 batters.

  • Jigsaw: Torture Porn Rebooted? Steve Jones After a Seven-Year Hiatus
    Originally published in: Bacon, S. (ed.) Horror: A Companion. Oxford: Peter Lang, 2019. This version © Steve Jones 2018 Jigsaw: Torture Porn Rebooted? Steve Jones After a seven-year hiatus, ‘just when you thought it was safe to go back to the cinema for Halloween’ (Croot 2017), the Saw franchise returned. Critics overwhelming disapproved of franchise’s reinvigoration, and much of that dissention centred around a label that is synonymous with Saw: ‘torture porn’. Numerous critics pegged the original Saw (2004) as torture porn’s prototype (see Lidz 2009, Canberra Times 2008). Accordingly, critics such as Lee (2017) characterised Jigsaw’s release as heralding an unwelcome ‘torture porn comeback’. This chapter will investigate the legitimacy of this concern in order to determine what ‘torture porn’ is and means in the Jigsaw era. ‘Torture porn’ originates in press discourse. The term was coined by David Edelstein (2006), but its implied meanings were entrenched by its proliferation within journalistic film criticism (for a detailed discussion of the label’s development and its implied meanings, see Jones 2013). On examining the films brought together within the press discourse, it becomes apparent that ‘torture porn’ is applied to narratives made after 2003 that centralise abduction, imprisonment, and torture. These films focus on protagonists’ fear and/or pain, encoding the latter in a manner that seeks to ‘inspire trepidation, tension, or revulsion for the audience’ (Jones 2013, 8). The press discourse was not principally designed to delineate a subgenre however. Rather, it allowed critics to disparage popular horror movies. Torture porn films – according to their detractors – are comprised of violence without sufficient narrative or character development (see McCartney 2007, Slotek 2009).

  • September 2014
    GHSA September 2014 ‘New Guy’ Won’t Seek Change Just for Change’s Sake The winds of change have come to the Georgia High School Association. Subtle changes in long-term tenure began with the retirement of Joyce Kay. Mrs. Kay had been a primary fixture in the GHSA for more than 35 years. Joyce’s retirement was followed, shortly, by the retirement of Associate Director Dennis Payne, an 11-year administrator in football and baseball. Ultimately, the retirement of Dr. Ralph Swearngin, Executive Director, swept in the changes you will see for this and the coming years. Dr. Swearngin served as the Commissioner of Officials for nine years and as the Executive Director for the next 13 years. Other changes within the organization have come with the beginnings of this school year: • Jay Russell, former Athletic Director at LaGrange High School has been named Assistant Executive Director. He will administer cross country, track and golf. • Ernie Yarbrough has been named as Coordinator of Officiating. Additionally, he will administer softball, basketball and baseball; a change from prior years. • Tommy Whittle, Associate Director, will administer soccer now along with his duties in football and literary events. • Denis Tallini, a third year Associate Director, has been charged with the reorganization and revitalization of our Sports Medicine Advisory Committee. • In addition, there are a total of 20 new members on the 2014-15 State Executive Committee out of the 58 representatives, bringing some new and fresh ideas to the GHSA’s rule-making board. Admittedly, these are not sweeping changes, but they are reflective of our approach through the change process.

  • Unclassified Fictions: the CIA, Secrecy Law, and the Dangerous Rhetoric of Authenticity
    Unclassified Fictions: The CIA, Secrecy Law, and the Dangerous Rhetoric of Authenticity Matthew H. Birkhold* ABSTRACT Zero Dark Thirty , Kathryn Bigelow’s cinematic account of the manhunt for Osama bin Laden, attracted tremendous popular attention, inspiring impassioned debates about torture, political access, and responsible filmmaking. But, in the aftermath of the 2013 Academy Awards, critical scrutiny of the film has abated and the Senate has dropped its much-hyped inquiry. If the discussion about Zero Dark Thirty ultimately proved fleeting, our attention to the circumstances of its creation should not. The CIA has a longstanding policy of promoting the accuracy of television shows and films that portray the agency, and Langley’s collaboration with Bigelow provided no exception. To date, legal scholarship has largely ignored the CIA’s policy, yet the practice of assisting filmmakers has important consequences for national security law. Recently, the CIA’s role in Zero Dark Thirty’s creation and the agency’s refusal to release authentic images of the deceased Osama bin Laden reveals its attitude toward fiction and how it impacts the CIA’s legal justifications for secrecy. By conducting a close analysis of CIA affidavits submitted in FOIA litigation and recently declassified records detailing the CIA’s interactions with Bigelow, this article demonstrates how films like Zero Dark Thirty function as workarounds where the underlying records are classified. These films are “unclassified fictions” in that they allow the CIA to preserve the secrecy of classified records by communicating nearly identical information to the public. Unclassified fictions, in other words, allow the CIA to evade secrecy while maintaining that secrecy—to speak without speaking.
