  • Desperate Housewives a Lot Goes on in the Strange Neighborhood of Wisteria Lane
    Desperate Housewives A lot goes on in the strange neighborhood of Wisteria Lane. Sneak into the lives of five women: Susan, a single mother; Lynette, a woman desperately trying to b alance family and career; Gabrielle, an exmodel who has everything but a good m arriage; Bree, a perfect housewife with an imperfect relationship and Edie Britt , a real estate agent with a rocking love life. These are the famous five of Des perate Housewives, a primetime TV show. Get an insight into these popular charac ters with these Desperate Housewives quotes. Susan Yeah, well, my heart wants to hurt you, but I'm able to control myself! How would you feel if I used your child support payments for plastic surgery? Every time we went out for pizza you could have said, "Hey, I once killed a man. " Okay, yes I am closer to your father than I have been in the past, the bitter ha tred has now settled to a respectful disgust. Lynette Please hear me out this is important. Today I have a chance to join the human rac e for a few hours there are actual adults waiting for me with margaritas. Loo k, I'm in a dress, I have makeup on. We didn't exactly forget. It's just usually when the hostess dies, the party is off. And I love you because you find ways to compliment me when you could just say, " I told you so." Gabrielle I want a sexy little convertible! And I want to buy one, right now! Why are all rich men such jerks? The way I see it is that good friends support each other after something bad has happened, great friends act as if nothing has happened.

  • Domestication and Foreignization in the Finnish Translation of Desperate Housewives
    Domestication and Foreignization in the Finnish Translation of Desperate Housewives Mari Taipale Pro Gradu thesis English Philology Faculty of Humanities University of Oulu Spring 2021 Abstract The topic of this study is domestication and foreignization in the Finnish DVD translation of the American television series Desperate Housewives. The aim of this study is to see which translation approach, domestication or foreignization, is preferred in the translation, and how they are used to solve the transferring of American cultural elements to the Finnish audience. The material for the analysis was the first season (23 episodes) of Desperate Housewives. The culture-bound elements of the original text found in the first season were categorized into four main categories: 1) Culture, 2) Society, 3) Phrases and expressions, and 4) Money and measures. The translation methods were identified and analyzed with the help of Pedersen’s (2005) classification of translation methods. The division of the methods used in the translation was made based on Pedersen’s (2005) and Van Poucke’s (2012) divisions, and partly on the author’s assessment on the domesticating or foreignizing effect of the method. Domesticating methods are substitution and generalization, and foreignizing methods are retention and direct translation. In addition to these, there are translation methods called specification and official equivalent, which are more ambiguous translation methods. The results of this study show that mainly domesticating methods were used to translate the culture-bound elements of the first season of Desperate Housewives into Finnish. However, it was shown that also foreignizing translation methods were used a fair number of times in the translated material.

  • How Cognitive Biases Can Undermine Program Scale-Up Decisions Susan Mayer, Rohen Shah, and Ariel Kalil University of Chicago Au
    How Cognitive Biases Can Undermine Program Scale-Up Decisions Susan Mayer, Rohen Shah, and Ariel Kalil University of Chicago August 2020 Forthcoming in List, J., Suskind, D., & Supplee, L. H. (Ed.). The Scale-up Effect in Early Childhood and Public Policy: Why interventions lose impact at scale and what we can do about it. Routledge. HOW COGNITIVE BIASES CAN UNDERMINE SCALE UP 2 Abstract Many social programs that yield positive results in pilot studies fail to yield such results when implemented at scale. A variety of possible explanations aim to account for this failure. In this chapter we emphasize the potential role of cognitive biases in the decision-making process that takes an intervention from an idea to a fully implemented program. In that process, researchers, practitioners, program participants, and funders all make decisions that influence whether and how the program is implemented and evaluated and how evaluations are interpreted. Each decision is subject to the cognitive biases of the decision maker and these biases can increase the chance that false positive evaluation results lead to scaled—and in this case, failed— implementation. Although the potential for cognitive biases to influence the scale-up process is large, the research evidence is nearly nonexistent, suggesting the need for a psychologically informed understanding of the scale-up process. HOW COGNITIVE BIASES CAN UNDERMINE SCALE UP 3 Introduction Many social programs that yield positive results in pilot studies fail to work when scaled to a large population. A seemingly successful pilot intervention might fail to scale for any number of reasons, including unrepresentative samples of participants, low implementation fidelity, treatment heterogeneity, and other factors that are discussed in this book.

  • November 2017
    Volume 75 Kansas City Number 6 Young Matrons November 2017 Celebrating our 101st year of service ! President’s Letter We had a frost at our house last night – not a heavy frost, but fall is definitely here. In fact, we are entering the Holiday Season. Every year it seems to arrive sooner and sooner! For KCYM, things are speeding along as well. Our many affiliates are thankful for all of the enthusiasm and help we bring to them. We did lots of Community Service last month – Judy Bolton led the prep of meals for Boys Hope Girls Hope twice; Meals on Wheels delivered meals, thanks to Becky Quinn; we collected for Rose Brooks Lingerie Shower, thanks to Daleen Spradlin; Kristal Thompson organized our last Marillac Library Hours. Due to the reorganization of Marillac, we are discontinuing this program and won’t be holding our wonderfully fun Marillac Halloween Party. Melinda Frenzen and Debbie Papa led the fun for an Ozanam Girl Time; Marilyn Tampke organized meal prep for the Ronald McDonald House; we served at Avenue of Life; packaged diapers for Happy Bottoms, thanks to Elizabeth Wilson; served at Hope Faith, organized by Rebecca Young; and did Needle & Craft Work led by Pam Stephenson. Also, Kathy Knopke organized our Marillac Birthday Angels in October. November will be another big month for Community Service so there are many opportunities to get involved. Just look in the newsletter under the KCYM Affiliate Activities Pages. Also, don’t miss the Affiliate Spotlight feature that began last month. Community Service Director Anne Keil and the Project Coordinators are going to highlight one or more Affiliates each month so that we can learn more about them and, hopefully, decide to get involved.
