  • Samoan Submission Machines
    Samoan Submission Machines: Grappling with Representations of Samoan Identity in Professional Wrestling Theo Plothe1 Savannah State University [email protected] Amongst the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. The discussion of Samoan identity in the context of sport has examined Maori identity and masculinity in New Zealand, among other topics, but there has yet to be work which considers Samoans within professional wrestling. This research investigates Samoan identity through a content analysis of televised wrestling matches. This research identifies six primary stereotypes under which Samoan identity is portrayed. These portrayals of Samoan characters, I argue, flatten the representation of this ethnic group within wrestling and culture at large. Keywords: Samoans, identity, representation, gimmicks Introduction Among the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. This research investigates the identity of Samoans within professional wrestling, and the different ways they are constructed and presented to audiences. “Gimmicks,” characters portrayed by a wrestler “resulting in the sum of fictional elements, attire and wrestling ability” (Oliva and Calleja 3) utilized by Samoans have run the gamut from the wild uncivilized savage, to the sumo (both in villainous Japanese and comically absurd iterations), to the ultra-cool mogul who wears silk shirts and fancy shoes. Their ability to cut promos, an important facet of the modern gimmick allowing wrestlers to address their opponents and storylines, varies widely as well, but all lie within their Samoan identity.

  • National Fish and Wildlife Foundation Final Programmatic Report
    1 National Fish and Wildlife Foundation Final Programmatic Report Project Name and Number Whooping Crane Reintroduction to the South Eastern US (2008- 0045-003) Recipient organization / Agency: Operation Migration USA Inc. Recipient Contact: Joe Duff Recipient E-Mail: [email protected] Recipient Phone: 905 982 1096 Recipient Web Address: www.operationmigration.org 1) Summary In four or five sentences, provide a brief, cumulative summary of the project. Fourteen Whooping crane chicks were conditioned to follow the ultralight aircraft of Operation Migration. They were led 1255 miles from Wisconsin to Florida. A new route was developed to increase safety for the bird and pilots. New wintering grounds were tested by dividing the flock with seven birds wintering at the traditional area and the remainder at a new site. 2) Introduction Describe the original conservation need and objectives. Only 15 Whooping cranes existed in the 1940’s. That number has increased to over 500 however all of these birds use the same nesting area in northern Canada and wintering grounds in Southern United States. They are threatened by the possibility of chemical spills, avian diseases, habitat loss and drought. Together with the other eight agencies within the Whooping Crane Eastern Partnership, Operation Migration is attempting to reintroduce a population of Whooping cranes that migrate between nesting grounds in Wisconsin and wintering areas in Florida. This discrete flock will augment the only naturally occurring population and help safeguard the species from extinction. In order to make this reintroduced population self-sustaining it must consist of a minimum of 125 individuals including 25 breeding pairs.

Travers Scott, Committee Chair Dr. Erin Ash Dr. Darren Linvill ABSTRACT For a long time, professional wrestling has existed on the outskirts of society, with the idea that it was just for college-aged men. With the rise of the popularity of the World Wrestling Entertainment promotion, professional wrestling entered the mainstream. Celebrities often appear at wrestling shows, and the WWE often hires mainstream musical artists to perform at their biggest shows, WrestleMania and Summer Slam. Despite this still-growing popularity, there still exists a gap between men’s wrestling and women’s wrestling. Often the women aren’t allowed long match times, and for the longest time sometimes weren’t even on the main shows.

    November 7, 2014 Laura Lovrien Liberty Publishers Services Orbital Publishing Group P.O. Box 2489 White City, OR 97503 Re: Cease and Desist Distribution of Deceptive Subscription Notices Dear Ms. Lovrien: The undersigned represent the Newspaper Association of America (“NAA”), a nonprofit organization that represents daily newspapers and their multiplatform businesses in the United States and Canada. It has come to our attention that companies operating under various names have been sending subscription renewal notices and new subscription offers to both subscribers and non-subscribers of various NAA member newspapers. These notices falsely imply that they are sent on behalf of a member newspaper and falsely represent that the consumer is obtaining a favorable price. In reality, these notices are not authorized by our member newspapers, and often quote prices that far exceed the actual subscription price. We understand that the companies sending these deceptive subscription renewal notices operate under many different names, but that many of them are subsidiaries or affiliates of Liberty Publishers Services or Orbital Publishing Group, Inc. We have sent this letter to this address because it is cited on many of the deceptive notices. Liberty Publishers Services, Orbital Publishing Group, and their corporate parents, subsidiaries, and other affiliated entities, distributors, assigns, licensees and the respective shareholders, directors, officers, employees and agents of the foregoing, including but not limited to the entities listed in Attachment A (collectively, “Liberty Publishers Services” and/or “Orbital Publishing Group”), are not authorized by us or any of our member newspapers to send these notices. Our member newspapers do not and have not enlisted Liberty Publishers Services or Orbital Publishing Group for this purpose and Liberty Publishers Services and Orbital Publishing Group are not authorized to hold themselves out in any way as agents who can process payments from consumers to purchase subscriptions to our member newspapers.

    • BENEFllS UEHIVEO FRO~I WESTERN'S INTEHCOLLEG IATE ATHLETIC PHOGRAM In April 1982 an i ndepende nt comn ission was established by the Nationa l Col legiate At hletic Association to study col lege athletics.

In referring to this link . the comnittee declared : " ... one cou ld search at length for a theoretical justification fo r this linkage. but the exercise is meani ngless . The fact is that intercollegiate ath letics today is firmly established as part of the fabric of our education system , and it wil l continue to be in the future . The reason for thi s is clear. Despite all of the problems that have been associated with col lege athletic programs , their contributions to the overall well -being of higher education have outwe i glled their negative aspects. " I am sure each of us agree wi th the report when it states, "the primary function of any educational in stitution is to educa t e its constituency." However . it further conc ludes that "in our society, colleges and universities also serve functions that are ancillary to their basic miss ion" and that these functions are enormously impo rtant to those who share in them . For example, some of these anc ill ary functions are pub l ic service; developing and sustaining an interest in the fine arts ; and intercol l egiate athletic programs .

    2014 was a unique year for pro-wrestling, one that will undoubtedly be viewed as historically significant in years to follow. Whether it is to be reflected upon positively or negatively is not only highly subjective, but also context-specific with major occurrences transpiring across the pro-wrestling world over the last 12 months, each with its own strong, and at times far reaching, consequences. The WWE launched its much awaited Network, New Japan continued to expand, CMLL booked lucha's biggest match in well over a decade, culminating in the country's first million dollar gate, TNA teetered more precariously on the brink of death than perhaps ever before, Daniel Bryan won the WWE's top prize, Dragon Gate and DDT saw continued success before their loyal niche audiences, Alberto Del Rio and CM Punk departed the WWE with one ending up in the most unexpected of places, a developing and divergent style produced some of the best indie matches of the year, the European scene flourished, the Shield disbanded, Batista returned, Daniel Bryan relinquished his championship, and the Undertaker's streak came to an unexpected and dramatic end. These are but some of the happenings, which made 2014 the year that it was, and it is in this year-book that we look to not only recap all of these events and more, but also contemplate their relevance to the greater pro-wrestling landscape, both for 2015 and beyond. It should be stated that this year-book was inspired by the DKP Annuals that were released in 2011 and 2012, in fact, it was the absence of a 2013 annual that inspired us to produce a year-book for 2014.
