BY fOHN RIETI Michael Pickard's marketing depart­ ment is tucked away on the bottom floor of the Arts and Ad ministration Building. It's windowless, seemingly oblivious to the morning sunshine, and for an office so involved in graphic design it's fairly unglamour­ ous, adorned simply with Pickard's family photos. But from this office, Pickard and the Department of Marketing and Communications has launched one of the biggest changes ever for Memorial - a university re-brand­ ing. The brand was launched last Tuesday at the Inco Innovation Centre to an invitation-only audi­ ence of faculty, staff, and some stu­ dents. The crowd seemed interested, and by the end of the presentation they had plenty to digest along with the catered snacks. Memorial released an entirely fresh face, including a new theme, logo, colour pallet, advertisements, design elements and an integrating marketing plan for the entire 2006- 2007 university year. At the centre of the re-branding Faculty, staff, and students looked on as Memorial launched its new brand. is the word "become."

  • The Selection and Role of the Fifth Player
    Vol.1 No. 7 The Selection and Role of the Fifth Player (a subsidiary of TRUE NORTH CURLING INC.) PRESENTS THE COACHING SERIES… “A PANE IN THE GLASS” Foreword by Bill Tschirhart It is a pleasure for True North Coaching to publish an essay by someone who very likely never dreamed he’d be the coach of an Olympic champion. Sometimes the best things in life happen when we least anticipate they might. Such is the case with Toby McDonald. Until the Torino Winter Olympic Games, his most notable curling achievement by far was a Brier title in 1976 as the mate for Jack MacDuff. It is still Newfoundland & Labrador’s only Brier championship but when Brad Gushue needed a coach for his team’s run at the Curling Trials leading to the Torino Winter Olympic Games, Toby was the one the team wanted and a great choice it was! By now, several books have been written about Team Gushue’s Gold Medal performance in Torino and I’m personally pleased that many of the authors have noted the contribution Toby made. All was not blue skies and roses for Team Canada during those Olympic Games and had it not been for the expertise of Toby, the result might have been very different! Toby sent this essay to me several months ago re. the role of the fifth player and how to ultimately select someone for this most misunderstood position. I asked if he might allow me to publish it in the “A Pane in the Glass” series which he graciously has done.

Woodruff 2009 Abstract This dissertation documents African-American girls’ musical practices at a Boys and Girls Club in Durham, NC. Hip-hop is the cornerstone of social exchanges at John Avery, and is integrated into virtually all club activities. Detractors point to the misogyny, sexual exploitation and violence predominant in hip-hop’s most popular incarnations, suggesting that the music is a corrupting influence on America’s youth. Girls are familiar with these arguments, and they appreciate that hip-hop is a contested and sometimes illicit terrain. Yet they also recognize that knowledge about and participation in hip-hop-related activities is crucial to their interactions at the club, at school, and at home.
