Patient delighted with special gift Senior Independence Hospice patient Gertrude “Gert” Lowther has a tall, handsome, very smart man keeping her company these days – in the form of a life- sized cardboard image. When the Greater Cleveland region’s hospice staff heard how much Gert loves the TV show “The Big Bang Theory,” they decided to organize a special surprise for her as part of their Make it Happen program. Make it Happen is Senior Independence’s wish fulfillment program that brings special moments of meaning and joy to patients. For Gert’s surprise, the hospice team was able to find a life-sized cutout of her favorite Big Bang character, Sheldon Cooper. “She is a wonderful lady with a great laugh. They also bought buttons with some of She lights up a room with that laugh,” Kim Sheldon’s most popular sayings, and were shared. able to secure an autographed picture of Sheldon and the rest of the show’s cast.

One worked as a military chaplain. Another did mission work all over the world. A third spent many years as a nurse. Now, their daily work supports hospice patients, family and staff. Whether offering prayer to patients in need or leading a grief support group for those left behind, they provide care in many forms. Here’s a look at the special people who attend to the spiritual needs of those we serve: Mike Peebles Joyce Gordon Central Ohio Greater Cleveland Region Region A pastor who has served in Nigeria, Jamaica, After years as a geriatric nurse, Joyce Gordon the Dominican Republic and England, felt called to bring spiritual care to hospice Columbus native Mike Peebles always carries patients. “I feel as if I have come home to a portable speaker with him so his patients where I was meant to be.

She sees a “real hunger” for spirituality in the patients, family and staff. When family members are having a difficult time, Mike is there to provide a listening ear “During a visit I listen deeply to the stories and offer prayer and words of comfort. of their life. By giving voice to their personal history and present concerns, the Mike and other members of the hospice process of spiritual healing can begin.

Mike explained. “Even if they can’t communicate, provides a short message or sermon, and even I will sit at their bedside and pray or softly communion if the patient desires. sing, knowing that God is fully present.” 4 James Fawcett Daniel Tayman Vincent Flippo Akron/Canton Mahoning Valley Greater Toledo Region Region Region James Fawcett was a Like his colleagues, Daniel Vince Flippo’s theology military chaplain assistant Tayman makes himself degrees and experience have and even served in Iraq. available to staff in addition to prepared him to help patients So he especially enjoys patients and their families. and their family members working with veteran hospice adjust to the realities of patients and their family Those who take care of death and the dying process. members.

Here are some of the wishes this program has helped to come true: Marjorie Boroff’s 85th birthday celebration was a foot- tapping good time as a bluegrass band was brought in to provide her favorite music. Many members of her large family attended and there were sub sandwiches and cake on the menu. “Marjorie was in high spirits and was beaming from ear to ear,” said a hospice staff member. Floyd Ackerman loves banana ice cream, and it was the highlight of his Make it Happen event. Hospice staff held an ice cream social for Floyd, and his friends and family came to enjoy the sweet celebration.

    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação XVI Congresso de Ciências da Comunicação na Região Sudeste – São Paulo - SP – 12 a 14 de maio de 2011 Bazinga! Uma Análise Neotribal Da Sitcom The Big Bang Theory 1 Arthur Carlos FRANCO OLIVEIRA 2 Mirna TONUS 3 Universidade Federal de Uberlândia, Uberlândia, MG RESUMO O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar a sitcom The Big Bang Theory sob a ótica da teoria neotribalista proposta por Michel Maffesoli. A partir do método observacional, assistiu-se a todos os episódios das quatro temporadas da sitcom, procurando identificar em seus personagens elementos que os relacionassem a uma neotribo. Assim, foi possível concluir que os sujeitos analisados não atendem a todas as características de uma neotribo. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: sitcom, neotribalismo, televisão, humor. “Bazinga!” – Sheldon Cooper Desde o surgimento da televisão, suas funções têm sido as mais diversas. Informar, emocionar e fazer rir são alguns dos papéis que ela exerce no contexto atual. Suas atrações sempre buscam aumentar a audiência e cativar o público, sendo que, nos últimos anos, a televisão tem mais do que nunca se utilizado do público para fazer sucesso. Séries humorísticas, programas de auditório recheados de casos engraçados e comentários ácidos e inteligentes são alguns artifícios veiculados para divertir o público. E, entre os programas de humor, estão as chamadas sitcoms . O termo, segundo o Dicionário da Língua Portuguesa4, é uma série televisiva que aborda situações do dia–a-dia em tom de comédia. A palavra vem do termo inglês “situation comedy ”, que, literalmente, significa situação de comédia. Desde o seu 1 Trabalho apresentado no DT 4 – Comunicação Audiovisua do XVI Congresso de Ciências da Comunicação na Região Sudeste realizado de 12 a 14 de maio de 2011.

  • Interpretation of Verbal Humor in the Sitcom the Big Bang Theory from the Perspective of Adaptation-Relevance Theory
    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 3, No. 12, pp. 2220-2226, December 2013 © 2013 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland. doi:10.4304/tpls.3.12.2220-2226 Interpretation of Verbal Humor in the Sitcom The Big Bang Theory from the Perspective of Adaptation-relevance Theory Zejun Ma School of Foreign Languages, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian, China Man Jiang School of Foreign Languages, Dalian University of Technology, Dalian, China Abstract—Humor plays a very important role in every sphere of our daily life, especially verbal humor which is mainly carried by language use in a certain context to achieve humorous effect. As a special carrier of humor, sitcom, which is a type of comedy performance, has attracted millions of audiences with humorous utterances all over the world. The American sitcom The Big Bang Theory has been one of the most popular American sitcoms in China within these years which largely count on verbal humor to create general humorous effect. Based on the achievements made by previous researchers, the present study explores the verbal humor in the American sitcom The Big Bang Theory in the light of a new model—Adaptation-Relevance model so as to reveal its interpretive power of humor and its feasibility in analyzing verbal humor in the sitcom The Big Bang Theory. The paper mainly adopts the qualitative and descriptive methods to analyze the selected examples and finally comes to a conclusion that this Adaptation-Relevance model which is an integration of two powerful pragmatic theories holds the interpretive power for verbal humor and has feasibility in analyzing verbal humor by using the data in sitcom The Big Bang Theory.
