How fully did you live? How deeply did you let go?” ― Jack Kornfield Friday, May 22, 2020 Printable Copy or Audio Version Morning Summary: Investors could become a bit uncertain into the extended Memorial Day weekend as China moves to tighten its grip on Hong Kong reigniting concerns over trade tensions and mass protests. Here at home, the number of unemployed Americans surpasses +38 million yet the Nasdaq is in positive territory for the year. Bulls continue to argue that as each day passes we are one step closer to treatment and a vaccine. At the same time, central banks around the world are offering up even greater economic stimulus. The most recent Fed "minutes" and rhetoric suggest even more QE will be coming in the days and weeks ahead. Most inside the trade suspect money will remain cheap with interest rates near record lows for the next couple of years. Oil prices have gone from being a serious headwind to more of a tailwind as they rally to levels not seen in a couple of months. The sharp supply cuts and improving demand is helping the overall crude oil landscape.

    April 6-11, 2010 2010 a comedy odyssey PRODUCED BY FESTIVAL SPONSOR THE 2010 WINNIPEG COMEDY FESTIVAL - AN ODYSSEY NINE YEARS IN THE MAKING. February 22, 2010 (Winnipeg) – It’s nearly that time of year again, when dozens of comics from across the nation hold the city hostage with big laughs and side-splitting mirth. Running April 6-11, 2010, it’s our biggest festival yet, featuring 70 comics and 29 shows in six short nights. What makes this festival so big? Let’s start at the beginning. Tuesday, April 6th we launch the festival with a bang by hosting the Trevor Boris DVD Release/Homecoming 2010 show. When Winnipeg’s favourite farmboy-turned-Much Music-host Trevor Boris announced his intentions to return home to launch his new DVD with Warner Brothers, we decided to join forces and create a show celebrating Trevor and other fine Manitoba ex-pats Irwin Barker and Bruce Clark, as well as current Winnipeggers Al Rae and Chantel Marostica. Wednesday marks our eighth year of the fantastic Opening Night show with the Manitoba Lotteries, hosted this year by none other than the prodigal son, Trevor Boris! The show has swollen from the traditional four to six talented performers; Greg Morton, Derek Edwards, Arthur Simeon, Scott Faulconbridge and Karen O’Keefe. Next comes four nights of galas, including five recorded-for-broadcast CBC galas. We kick off on Thursday with the Edumacation Show, hosted by Gerry Dee and featuring half a dozen cerebral comics including David Hemstad and Jon Dore. Friday night we’ve got two fantastic galas.

  • Motif Tattoo Awards,25Th Annual Langston Hughes Community
    An Ode to the Analog: The Linotype Daily project is part diary, part news filter and completely perfect I am at DWRI Letterpress, and I am standing in front of a Linotype, the first automatic typesetting machine — a machine that Edison called the “Eighth Wonder of The World” — and over the whirring, clanking and spitting of its 3,000 moving parts, Dan Wood is explaining why it’s so wondrous, or in his words, “Completely insane! This started a whole new printing revolution: the second printing revolution after Gutenberg. Up until the 1880s, everything had to be handset — this machine made school textbooks affordable, and suddenly instead of two- or three-page newspapers you could have daily newspapers that were 20 or 30 pages long. It launched us into the information age.” At the turn of the century, the Linotype was a marvel of modern engineering; it was, in Dan’s words, “breathtakingly fast…and now it’s like, so, so slow.” Dan would know. He’s the artist behind The Linotype Daily, and for 366 consecutive days (ending on Leap Day), he produced a new “print, card, pencil or other Linotype-created work” using this fin de siècle marvel. Dan’s website describes The Linotype Daily as “part diary, part news filter.” He had a number of print subscribers, and a spot in the World’s Fair Gallery, but many encountered the project through the Instagram account @thelinotypedaily. Dan’s daily posts toggled between the political (“PRESIDENT PARDONS WAR CRIMINAL,”) and the personal (“TEENAGE WHISTLEBLOWER ALLEGES HER DAD ATE THE PEANUT BUTTER”), the local (“PRONK!”) and the national (“HONG KONG, BEIRUT, SANTIAGO! MILLIONS CONTINUE PROTESTS”).

  • Prince Rogers Nelson
    Prince Rogers Nelson By Elizabeth Ting, Hosam Alkhatib, Cody Komorouski, and Hannah Gibson Our Interests In We decided to create a presentation on Prince because has Prince left an absolutely incredible legacy behind in music. With the tragedy of his recent death, Prince has again been in the headlines and the impacts he made in music are being appreciated. Prince was a highly innovative pop, contemporary R&B, and rock artist, so we wanted to uncover the aspects of his music and style that made him such an influential artist. Prince, A Short Biography... The musical icon known as Prince was born on June 7, 1958 as Prince Rogers Nelson, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Prince became interested in music at a young age, perhaps due to the fact that both of his parents were musicians. He taught himself to play the piano, guitar and the drums. After his parents split up when he was ten, he and his sister divided their time among their parents. Eventually Prince ran away, moving in with “The Anderson Family,” his next door neighbors. In high school Prince formed his band, known as Grand Central. Not until late in his musical career did Prince reveal that as a child he suffered from epilepsy, which he went on to claim was cured by an angel. Biography, cont…. In 1978 Prince signed with Warner Bros and released his first album, in which he played almost every instrument on. He would go on to make numerous albums, and in 1984 Prince would win an Academy Award for best original song score for his hit Purple Rain.

Bush by late-night talk show hosts after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2002. Twelve weeks worth of monologues from David Letterman and Jay Leno are examined using genre of political satire as the primary method of explanation. The initial sections of the paper deal with the histories of both political satire and late-night talk shows respectively. The intermediate sections of the paper discuss the events of September 11 and the comedians' monologues before and after the tragedy. Finally, the paper uses the genre of political satire to explain variations in the treatment of President Bush. Acknowledgements My sincerest thanks are due to Dr. Beth Messner, whose time and guidance allowed this thesis to be created. She helped me focus on a subject and was patient while I worked though it. Dr. Messner's encouragement and advice were invaluable in the formation of this paper, and I am grateful. Purpose This paper attempts to argue that comedians' treatment of President George W.

  • UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Navigating Careers In
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Navigating Careers in Cultural Production Industries: The Case of Stand-Up Comedy A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology by Patrick Michael Reilly 2016 © Copyright by Patrick Michael Reilly 2016 ABSTRCACT OF THE DISSERTATION Navigating Careers in Cultural Production Industries: The Case of Stand-Up Comedy by Patrick Michael Reilly Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Gabriel Rossman, Co-chair Professor Lynne Goodman Zucker, Co-chair This dissertation investigates patterns of action and decision-making patterns by artists with cultural production industries. In particular, it explores how individuals navigate these uncertain, project-based fields, which are characterized by network forms of organization. Drawing from of five years of ethnographic research into stand-up comedians in Los Angeles, I crafted three chapters that examine participants’ decision-making and social organization. The first chapter covers the underlying processes and mechanisms for career development among artists. It introduces and defines the model of a layered career. In the case of stand-up comedy, individuals progressively move through three layers. Each exhibits its own distinctive organizational bases, challenges, interactional processes, relationship types, and rewards. While development involves one matriculating through layers, it also requires artists to maintain their participation in prior layers, because each is ideally suited for different aspects of practice, creativity, and social support. Careers ii in these contexts involve building a durable infrastructure rather than a simple passage through discrete statuses. The second chapter explores the informal enforcement of intellectual property rights in stand-up comedy.
