  • ANY RESEMBLANCE a Play in Two Acts
    ANY RESEMBLANCE a play in two acts Any Resemblance 2. SYNOPSIS Stanley Curson, a small time Hollywood actor, has hit a rough patch: he’s broke, his wife has left him, and he is emotionally unable to file his side of the divorce papers. Out of the blue, he gets a recurring role on a TV show and is pulled into the strange orbit of Amy Star, a flirtatious and charismatic celebrity who is (in splashy media style) going through her own marital woes. In no time, Stanley becomes Amy’s mentor, confidante, therapist, father figure, and possible new boyfriend, placing him at serious odds with Amy’s movie star husband, Chad Finch. As his ex-wife’s cat provides a hilarious commentary, Stanley bounces from one crazy Hollywood situation to another until he is cast aside like a scene on the cutting room floor. He finally files those damn papers and gets on with a life that benefits mightily from a Hollywood education. Any Resemblance 3. CAST OF CHARACTERS Stanley Curson, a frequently unemployed actor, about 44, who wry, analytical, self-deprecating, and ready for a change. Chad Finch, a self-absorbed movie star who is not the sharpest tool in the shed. This actor also plays Friend, Someone (Scenes 15 and 50), Security 2, Matt, Tronson Pike, Umpire, and Tow Lot Guy. Officer Kawasaki is with the LAPD. He is very conservative, politically. He needn’t have Asian features.

  • And Type the TITLE of YOUR WORK in All Caps
    A SPACE FOR CONNECTION: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL INQUIRY ON MUSIC LISTENING AS LEISURE by JOSEPH ALFRED PATE IV (Under the Direction of Corey W. Johnson) ABSTRACT This polyvocal text leveraged Post-Intentional Phenomenology (Vagle, 2010) to trouble, open up, and complexify understanding of the lived leisure experience (Parry & Johnson, 2006) of connection with and through music listening. Music listening was foregrounded as one horizon within the aural soundscape that affords deeply meaningful and significant experiences for many. Past scholarship within the Leisure Studies literature has primarily attended to the impact and relevancy of music in the lives of adolescents. This study focused on engagement with music of five adults, accessing phenomenology as both a philosophical and methodological lens to look along (Lewis, 1990) this lived-experience. Using multiple voices and styles of representation, this polyvocal work challenged traditional ways of knowing by inviting listening, music, and voice to serve as additional data embedded throughout its discursive representation. Accessing Bachelard‟s (1990) phenomenology of the resonation-reverberation doublet revealed five partial, fleeting, and tentative manifestations (Vagle, 2010) of this lived leisure experience, which included: Getting Lost: Felt Resonation and Embodiment; I‟m Open: Openness, Receptivity, and Enchantment; Serendipitous Moments; The Found Mirror: Oh There You Are; and Cairns and Echoes: The Lustering Potency of Song. Ultimately, music appeared to speak to so as to speak for participants, providing musical affirmation and sustenance throughout their lives. INDEX WORDS: Music, Listening, Leisure, Post-Intentional Phenomenology, Polyvocal Text A SPACE FOR CONNECTION: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL INQUIRY ON MUSIC LISTENING AS LEISURE by JOSEPH ALFRED PATE IV B.

  • Stephen Boyd):I Guess We’Ve Started
    IntroToLinearDynamicalSystems-Lecture04 Instructor (Stephen Boyd):I guess we’ve started. Let me start with a couple of announcements. The first is I guess I should remind you that Homework 1 is due today at 5:00. Several people have asked what they should do with their homework, and I should have said this maybe on the first day, although I guess its most relevant now. One thing you should not do is give it to me. I am highly unreliable. I will accept it by the way, that’s why I’m warning you. You’ll give it to me. It’ll be in my hand. By the time I get back to Packard, who knows where it will be? The TAs are more reliable. You can give your homework to a TA if you personally know them and trust them. But really, the correct I.O. method is that there is a box; it’s actually a file cabinet; it’s explained on the website. But it’s near my office in Packard. That’s the right place where you should submit the homework. Okay, the next is that we have gotten more than just a handful of sort of requests or suggestions to do something like a linear algebra or matrix review session. That’s for people who either never had a detailed course on this or have successfully repressed the memories of the course they may have taken. So for those people, the TA’s and I have been talking about it, and we’ll probably do something.

    Disrupt Yourself Podcast with Whitney Johnson Episode 55: Carter Cast On today’s show – “And so I would coin this phrase to the students, um, don't worry about what other people think of you because they're not thinking of you. They're the protagonist in their own play and they're, you know, they are not worried about, they are not judging you as much as you think they are. They're not watching what you do as much as you think, so that shouldn't make you depressed, it should free you up to do what you want to do.” Welcome to the Disrupt Yourself Podcast. I’m Whitney Johnson. I think, write, speak and live all things disruption. My guest today is Carter Cast – former CEO of WalMart.com, professor at management at Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Business, and author of The Right—and Wrong—Stuff: How Brilliant Careers Are Made and Unmade. Whitney: So Carter, I am really excited to interview you and let's just start with the basics. Uh, 25 years ago you were young, well educated, highly ambitious, you were on the fast track at Pepsi when you were told you were “unpromotable”. Will you set the scene for us? Where had you been? What had you done? And then what did you do? Carter: I had been a marketing manager earlier on in my career, uh, coming out of college in a startup division of PepsiCo. Pepsi, it was called, it's no longer functioning, it was called PepsiCo Food Service International, which was the international division for Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and Kentucky Fried Chicken.

  • Homosociality and Black Masculinity in Gangsta Rap Music
    J Afr Am St (2011) 15:22–39 DOI 10.1007/s12111-010-9123-4 ARTICLES Brotherly Love: Homosociality and Black Masculinity in Gangsta Rap Music Matthew Oware Published online: 20 March 2010 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2010 Abstract Hip hop, specifically gangsta rap music, reflects a stereotypical black masculine aesthetic. The notion of a strong black male—irreverent, angry, defiant and many times violent—is pervasive in gangsta rap music. This badman trope, as characterized by Robin Kelley (1996), oftentimes encompasses hypermasculinity, misogyny, and homophobia. It should come as no surprise that this genre of rap music is rife with sexist themes and lyrics. Yet, what has not been fully explored are the progressive ways that male rappers express themselves towards others considered comrades or “homies.” Homosociality (Bird 1996; Sedgwick 1995), non-sexual positive social bonds, exists in gangsta rap music between men. This study explores the notion of homosociality in this genre of music, analyzing the lyrics of male rap artists who have sold one million or more of their compact discs, for a total of 478 songs. I attempt to further unpack the idea of hegemonic black masculinity, presenting an alternative understanding of its deployment and manifestation in this music. Keywords Black masculinity . Hip hop . Rap . Homosociality Gangsta rap music, the most popular selling subgenre of rap music, is predicated on an essentialized and limited construction of black masculinity. Various scholars have discussed the notion of black male authenticity within rap music (Kitwana 2002; Ogbar 2007; Rose 2008). Many rappers construct a black male subjectivity that incorporates the notion that masculinity means exhibiting extreme toughness, invulnerability, violence and domination (Anderson 1990, 1999; Collins 2005; Majors and Billson 1992; Neal 2006).
