SORORITY ROW was shot entirely in and around Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Stewart Hendler PURE HORROR – CREATING THE PLOT Just a year ago, all things were golden in the wild world of the Theta Pi sorority. Containing the most popular (and hardest partying) girls on campus, Theta Pi was the house to pledge for any self-respect- ing freshman. Theta Pi, then, was a mix of the good, the bad and the beautiful: thoughtful Cassidy (BRI- ANA EVIGAN), who’s romance with boyfriend Andy (JULIAN MORRIS) took precedence over her activities at the house; ‘Queen Bee’ Jessica (LEAH PIPES), leader of the sorority whose quest to be the best included her lassoing of a Senator’s son, Kyle (MATT LANTER); bookish Ellie (RUMER WILLIS), Cassidy’s closest friend and the sorority’s valedictorian; crazy/beautiful Claire (JAMIE CHUNG), whose devotion to throw Megan’s lifeless body into a Jessica outstripped her foolhardy nearby mineshaft and vow never to love for randy Mickey (MAXX mention the crime to anyone.

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

    EXPOSURE TO SEXUAL MEDIA AND COLLEGE STUDENTS’ SEXUAL RISK-TAKING AND SEXUAL REGRET BY YUANYUAN ZHANG DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communication in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Kristen Harrison, Chair Professor David Tewksbury, Director of Research Professor Barbara J. Wilson Professor Travis L. Dixon, University of California, Los Angeles Abstract Sexual risk-taking represents a significant health problem among college students. Although media may play an important role in college students’ sexual risk-taking, research in this area has been sparse. Using social cognitive theory as the theoretical framework, this dissertation aimed to achieve three goals. First, the study sought to examine how exposure to sexual content in six media (i.e., television, songs, music videos, movies watched at home, movies watched in the theater, and magazines) might be related to college students’ sexual risk-taking. Second, the study investigated a list of moderators that might influence the relationship between media exposure and sexual risk-taking. Five moderators (i.e., gender [femaleness], race [whiteness], sensation seeking, positive premarital sexual attitudes, and endorsement of the sexual double standard) were proposed to strengthen the relationship, and three moderators (i.e., school performance, religiosity, and parental monitoring) were proposed to weaken the relationship. Lastly, the study explored whether sexual media exposure may be linked to sexual regret indirectly through its effect on sexual risk-taking. The main project was an online survey completed by 561college students. To assist the investigation, three subprojects were conducted beforehand.

  • Audrina Patridge Says Cameras Are Off and Love Life Is On
    Audrina Patridge Says Cameras Are Off and Love Life Is On VH1 decided not to renew Audrina Patridge self-titled reality show for a second season, but Patridge couldn’t be happier as the cancellation may just be what she needed to repair her on- again, off-again relationship with her boyfriend, BMX rider Corey Bohan. “Filming a reality show really takes a toll on relationships because your mindset is to create good TV,” the former “The Hills” star told People. “It’s really really hard on relationships so after the show, Corey [Bohan] and I really worked on what was going on with us. We spent time together.” Audrina’s breakup with Corey may have been good for her show’s finale, but the couple has since rekindled their relationship and got back together in May. How do you keep your job from affecting your relationship? Cupid’s Advice: It’s easy to let your job take over your life. Cupid has some ways to keep it from affecting your relationship: 1. Try to separate work from home: Sure, everyone has their bad days a work, but try not to bring the stress you may receive at work to your home. If your job is consistently stressing you out, it may be time to start filling out applications. 2. Balance: Although you may not have finished everything you needed to do at work before your day ended, try to make sure that you when you’re home, you’re relaxing and not thinking about what you will have to do tomorrow.

  • The Clash and Mass Media Messages from the Only Band That Matters
    THE CLASH AND MASS MEDIA MESSAGES FROM THE ONLY BAND THAT MATTERS Sean Xavier Ahern A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS August 2012 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Kristen Rudisill © 2012 Sean Xavier Ahern All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This thesis analyzes the music of the British punk rock band The Clash through the use of media imagery in popular music in an effort to inform listeners of contemporary news items. I propose to look at the punk rock band The Clash not solely as a first wave English punk rock band but rather as a “news-giving” group as presented during their interview on the Tom Snyder show in 1981. I argue that the band’s use of communication metaphors and imagery in their songs and album art helped to communicate with their audience in a way that their contemporaries were unable to. Broken down into four chapters, I look at each of the major releases by the band in chronological order as they progressed from a London punk band to a globally known popular rock act. Viewing The Clash as a “news giving” punk rock band that inundated their lyrics, music videos and live performances with communication images, The Clash used their position as a popular act to inform their audience, asking them to question their surroundings and “know your rights.” iv For Pat and Zach Ahern Go Easy, Step Lightly, Stay Free. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis would not have been possible without the help of many, many people.
