    327 Testimony of Carolyn Gerster, M.D. Before the Senate Judiciary Committee September 10, 1981 I would like to thank Sen. Strom Thurmond and the members of the Senate Judiciary Committee for the opportunity to testify at this confirmation hearing. I am an Arizona physician and was the co-founder and first president of the Arizona Right to Life Committee in October of 1971. I have served as director from Arizona to the board of directors of the National Right to Life Committee since its formation in 1973 and am the immediate past president of the national organization. My current position is Vice President in charge of International Affairs. I would like to comment on the Justice Department memoran- dum from Kenneth W. Starr, dated July 7, 1981, summarizing his July 6th telephone investigation of Judge Sandra D. O'Connor's voting record on family-related issues during the period that she served in the Arizona State Senate. The memo reads in part: "Judge O'Connor further indicated, in response to my questions, that she had never been a leader or outspoken advocate on behalf • of either pro-life or abortion-rights organizations. She knows well the Arizona leader of the right-to-life movement, a prominent female physician in Phoenix, and has never had any disputes or controversies with her." I was not contacted by the Justice Department for verifi- cation. This statement has been understandably misunderstood by members of the legislature and media to imply that Judge O'Connor and I share similar beliefs on the abortion issue.

    Anne Wagner Richard K. Sherwin Editors Law, Culture and Visual Studies 938 A.V. Kozin before our eyes […] phantasy on the other hand lacks the consciousness of reality in relation to what is phantasied” (Husserl 2005 , 4). Differentiating between and among these forms is the direct task of psychoanalysis, which, on the basis of the source of the patient’s speech, or vocalization, helps the analyst design an appropriate method of intrusion into the unconscious along the path of some deviant manifestation. The path to the unconscious is coded, and dream serves as the main decoder. “Dream is a rebus; it must be understood quite literally” (Lacan 1989 , 176). Thus, suggests Lacan, one should approach dreams on the basis of what they are, namely, as symbols. Traumdeutung is symbolic interpretation in a sense that it shows how the signi fi ers are combined in Entstellung , or “distortion,” “transposition,” and a reversal, in other words. Entstellung is the necessary condition for dreaming; more importantly, it helps establish “the effect of the signi fier on the signi fi ed” (ibid., 177). This is to say that dreams incorporate the laws that govern both realms, the realm of presence and the realm of absence, but in a manner of distorted re flection, concealing certain inner aspects of one order, while exaggerating the backbone of the other. Lacan describes the fi nal effect of Entstellung as “sliding of the signi fi ed under the signi fi er” (ibid.). Dreams’ partiality and temporal lapses, their polymorphous imagery, simultaneity of surface and depth, repeatability and cross sequentiality, the operations of fading in and out, and all their means, in other words, point to the work of this reversal.

  • The Summerissue
    June 2021 – August 2021 the SUMMER issue From the Mayor When I was much younger, I remember the Keep America Beautiful advertisement on television showing an elderly, wise Native American with a tear in his eye. He was filled with sadness because our rivers and streams across America were being polluted on a daily basis. I’m reminded of that advertisement each day when I ride down the streets of Ridgeland, and it also puts a tear in my eye noticing the amount of litter that is thrown out daily. Our Public Works Department does an admirable job attempting to keep our streets clean, but we still have those who seem to be uncaring and continue to litter. Not only does this make our city unattractive, but it also costs each of us thousands of dollars to keep the litter picked up, and it ultimately affects our property values. For the majority, our citizens are caring enough not to litter, but there are a few who don’t seem to mind and continue throwing their trash on the streets. I’m asking each of you to do your part to keep Ridgeland streets clean. If you see someone littering, please write down their Gene McGee Mayor of Ridgeland tag number and report it to my office. We will pass your information along to the Ridgeland Police Department, and they can send a letter politely asking them to stop littering on our streets. Together, we can help Ridgeland be litter free. On a positive note, I’d like to congratulate the Keep Ridgeland Beautiful Committee for their most recent awards, Keep Mississippi Beautiful Affiliate Award for 2020 and the Wildflower Trails of Mississippi 2021 Award.

Additionally, the joint resolution specifies that the Florida Constitution may not be interpreted to create broader rights to an abortion than those contained in the U.S. Constitution. This joint resolution also includes a ballot summary, which outlines the provisions of the joint resolution. This joint resolution creates section 28, Article I of the Florida Constitution. The joint resolution will require approval by a three-fifths vote of the membership of each house of the Legislature to be placed on the November 2012 ballot.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Communications COMPETITION AND PROGRAM TYPE DIVERSITY IN THE OVER-THE-AIR TELEVISION INDUSTRY, 1943-2005 A Thesis in Mass Communications by Young Shin Cho © 2007 Young Shin Cho Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2007 The thesis of Young-Shin Cho was reviewed and approved* by the following: Richard Taylor Palmer Chair of Telecommunications Studies and Law Thesis Advisor Chair of Committee Matt Jackson Associate Professor of Communications Krishna Jayakar Associate Professor of Communications Lynette Kvasny Assistant Professor of Information Sciences and Technology John S. Nichols Professor of Communications Associate Dean for Graduates Studies and Research *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ABSTRACT Competition and diversity are touchstones in media policy, but the relationship between them is not clear despite a great number of studies because even studies dealing with their relationship, did not measure the intensity of competition. This paper investigates the relationship between market competition and program type diversity in the over-the-air television industry. Specifically, market competition is divided into intra-network competition and intra-media competition, i.e. terrestrial television vs. cable TV. Also this paper uses a comprehensive model of program types, with 281 program type categories, which have never been used in previous studies. The results show that program type diversity keeps decreasing over time and intra-network competition has a negative effect on program type diversity. Also, intra- network competition is a more important factor on program type diversity than inter- media competition.

  • Paul Levine ’69
    Paul Levine ’69 Since graduating from Penn State in 1969 with a B.A. in journalism, Paul Levine, of Studio City, Calif., has excelled as a lawyer, teacher, and writer. He is widely known as an authority on the First Amendment, has represented the news media in libel and privacy lawsuits, has tried cases in numerous state and federal courts—and he is also a prize- winning novelist and a screenwriter. Levine began his career at The Daily Collegian, first as sports editor and later as editorin- chief. He won the first- place national award in the prestigious William Randolph Hearst Foundation’s Journalism Awards Program—“the Pulitzer Prize” of college journalism. “Penn State defined my early career path,” he has said. “The combination of my degree and the Collegian allowed me to go directly to a major metropolitan newspaper.” Upon graduating, Levine put everything he owned in his rusty Chevrolet and headed for The Miami Herald, where he became the paper’s youngest reporter on the City Desk. His work reporting on criminal court led Levine to pursue law. He attended the University of Miami School of Law, graduating third in his class in 1973. As a young lawyer, he taught the first class of the Cuban Lawyers’ Program, designed to prepare exiled lawyers for the Florida Bar. In 1978, he returned again to teach communications law. Levine pursued a 17-year career as a successful trial lawyer and partner in the Miami office of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, the Philadelphia-based law firm. But he never abandoned writing—as a law student he had supported himself by reporting for The Miami News and The Los Angeles Times.
