  • Here, Kitty-Kitty-Kitty-Kitty Sausalito Firm Offers Clones for $50,000, Signs up 5 Cat Owners by Carolyn Said San Francisco Chronicle, April 15, 2004
    READING SELECTIONS Here, Kitty-Kitty-Kitty-Kitty Sausalito firm offers clones for $50,000, signs up 5 cat owners By Carolyn Said San Francisco Chronicle, April 15, 2004 1 It sounds like science fiction, but it’s not. 2 Any cat owner with $50,000 to spare can pay a Sausalito company, Genetic Savings & Clone, to clone Fluffy or Frisky this year. 3 The company already sponsored the first domestic cat clone—a calico named CC (for “Carbon Copy”)—two years ago. Now, it is the first to go commercial, this time in its own laboratories, and five paying customers are lined up. 4 It has promised to produce nine cloned kittens by November. Six will be for clients and three for staff members, who will show off their clones at veterinary shows. None of the customers agreed to be interviewed. 5 The company got its start when iconoclastic octogenarian John Sperling, who made millions as founder of the University of Phoenix, backed research called “the Missyplicity Project” to clone a beloved husky mix, Missy. 6 The project was deluged by interested pet lovers, even though dog cloning continues to elude scientists. Genetic Savings says it is on track to clone Missy, who died in 2002 at age 15, this year. 7 “We would have had to be dumb not to see a business there,” said Genetic Savings CEO Lou Hawthorne, a longtime family friend of Sperling, who suggested they turn the project into a for-profit venture. 8 Hawthorne is cloning his own pet, Tahini, a 6-month-old Bengal cat who likes to stalk deer in her Mill Valley backyard.

  • Lewis County I Am From
    “It’s What I Am” I am from an old patchwork quilt, each piece tells a story. I am from embroidered pillowslips and crocheted doilies. I am from an old water pump, a wringer washer and fresh sheets blowing and drying in the wind. I am from making do with what we have – giving thanks for hand me down clothes, worn out shoes. Waste not, want not, and poor people have poor ways. I am from a strong faith and belief in God, the little country church, off key singing and neighbors that love one another. I am from Grandparents setting a good example, a true inspiration of family love. I am from fishing in the river, walking in the woods, picnics under the apple tree. I am from the four room school house with four seater outhouses. Laughter and games of Hopscotch, Tag "you're it", Jump rope, Marbles, Jacks, Andy Over, softball and playing Hide and Seek until dark. I am from unlocked doors, a three channel black and white TV with antennas, static on the radio, eating the family meal around the kitchen table and neighbors visiting after supper on the front porch. I am from hard work on the farm. The smell of fresh cut hay, housing tobacco, horses grazing in the meadow, cow pastures, wildflowers and butterflies. I am from the sounds of the Whippoorwill and the Hoot Owl, the rumble of a distant train, the lonesome boat horn on the river and wind blowing through the pines. I am from the early rise of the Roaster crowing.

  • FAITH in POP CULTURE Religious Representation on Television
    Powell 1 1Nss1Do7n7Ei/R 0/ 8 M&91O S2DO4E3C2LI0EI3NT2GY5 9 W/1 F3Oe3bRrKuary 2004 FAITH IN POP CULTURE Religious Representation on Television JARED POWELL University of Kansas Abstract This study is concerned with the presence of religion and religious characters in contemporary popular culture, specifically which groups receive media attention and in what ways they are portrayed. After a careful review of studies in media, religion, and culture, American television is analyzed with a focus on the Fox medical drama House. Using both quantitative and qualitative data found in 155 episodes, the author argues that the world‐renowned television show implicitly holds an agnostic view on religious matters, leaving interpretation up to the audience. Despite many characters that are religious, atheist, or ambiguous about their beliefs, a sense of uncertainty and a lack of specificity appear to promote this idea. Caricaturizing specific beliefs and using them as plot devices also helps to hide religious representation in plain sight. Findings suggest that American popular culture has a tendency to target the broadest possible audience with regard to religiosity by presenting the most basic representation of various views without promoting any single standpoint. More research must be done to further the understanding of how religion is represented via worldwide media and how it is received by consumers. Powell 2 In an age of diverse religious plurality and global media popularity, a few questions must be asked: how do the realms of faith and popular culture intersect, intertwine, interact? How are those in power using our most complex and subtle cultural tools to construct images of differing worldviews? Religious institutions often serve as sources of social pedagogy, but the media does this as well ‐ with the additional power of teaching us how to think about other pedagogical forces (such as religion, philosophy, and academic institutions).
