  • Donald L. Korb Chief Counsel, Internal Revenue Service Speech
    Donald L. Korb Chief Counsel, Internal Revenue Service Speech at Baseball Hall of Fame to Tax Section of New York State Bar Association in Cooperstown, New York Saturday, July 15, 2006 Thanks to Kim Blanchard for thinking of me and inviting me to speak here this evening. And thanks for the great reports you and your colleagues prepare for us. My wife Pat came with me to Cooperstown for the weekend. She just joined me in Washington, D.C. after two years of my commuting back and forth to our home to Cleveland. When I told her that we were going to celebrate her arrival in Washington by going to the Baseball Hall of Fame, and not only that, but we were going there to attend a meeting of tax lawyers, her response was “After all of these years” – and we have been married for 34 years – “you still really know how to win a girl’s heart.” When I was a young boy playing pick-up baseball on the sandlots back in Cleveland, I would often daydream – as I was standing out there in right field – about being enshrined in the Baseball Hall of Fame here in Cooperstown. And I would also fantasize about what I would say during my acceptance speech on that momentous – albeit hypothetical – occasion. Well since I am now 58 years old and still can’t hit a curve ball, I guess my talk to you tonight is about as close as I will ever get to fulfilling that particular dream. I was walking around the museum earlier this afternoon and I came across an exhibit that I suspect is little noticed by the average baseball fan who visits here.

  • “The Royals of Sir Cedric” by Steve Treder of the Hardball Times December 21, 2004
    “The Royals of Sir Cedric” by Steve Treder of The Hardball Times December 21, 2004 At its inception, the most successful expansion franchise in pre-free agency baseball history didn’t impress many observers. The Kansas City Royals devoted most of their expansion draft picks to unproven young players, in distinct contrast to the approach taken by their companion A.L. expansion team, the Seattle Pilots. Take a look at the first ten choices of each club, noting each player’s age and major league experience as of the October 15, 1968 draft: Royals: Player Age ML Seasons ML Experience 1. Roger Nelson 24 2 78 innings 2. Joe Foy 25 3 1,515 at-bats 3. Jim Rooker 26 1 5 innings 4. Joe Keough 22 1 98 at-bats 5. Steve Jones 27 2 36 innings 6. Jon Warden 22 1 37 innings 7.

  • Animation Fandom in North America and East Asia from 1906–2010 By
    Animating Transcultural Communities: Animation Fandom in North America and East Asia from 1906–2010 By Sandra Annett A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of English, Film, and Theatre University of Manitoba Winnipeg © 2011 Sandra Annett Abstract This dissertation examines the role that animation plays in the formation of transcultural fan communities. A ―transcultural fan community‖ is defined as a group in which members from many national, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds find a sense of connection across difference, engaging with each other through a mutual interest in animation while negotiating the frictions that result from their differing social and historical contexts. The transcultural model acts as an intervention into polarized academic discourses on media globalization which frame animation as either structural neo-imperial domination or as a wellspring of active, resistant readings. Rather than focusing on top-down oppression or bottom-up resistance, this dissertation demonstrates that it is in the intersections and conflicts between different uses of texts that transcultural fan communities are born. The methodologies of this dissertations are drawn from film/media studies, cultural studies, and ethnography. The first two parts employ textual close reading and historical research to show how film animation in the early twentieth century (mainly works by the Fleischer Brothers, Ōfuji Noburō, Walt Disney, and Seo Mitsuyo) and television animation in the late twentieth century (such as The Jetsons, Astro Boy and Cowboy Bebop) depicted and generated nationally and ethnically diverse audiences.
