On the Richter scale, each single-integer increase represents 10 times more ground movement and 30 times more energy released. The change in magnitude between numbers on the scale can be represented by 10x and 30x, where x represents the change in the Richter scale measure. Therefore, a 3.0 earthquake has 100 times more ground Richter Scale movement and 900 times more energy released than a 1.0 earthquake. Richter scale 2.5 Generally not felt, but recorded on seismometers. 3.5 Felt by many people. 4.5 Some local damage may occur. 6.0 A destructive earthquake that causes significant damage. 7.0 A major earthquake; about ten occur each year. 8.0 and above Great earthquakes; these occur once every five to ten years.

Edy A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Jean Folkerts W. Fitzhugh Brundage Jacquelyn Dowd Hall Frank E. Fee, Jr. Barbara Friedman ©2012 Carolyn Martindale Edy ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract CAROLYN M. EDY: Conditions of Acceptance: The United States Military, the Press, and the “Woman War Correspondent,” 1846-1945 (Under the direction of Jean Folkerts) This dissertation chronicles the history of American women who worked as war correspondents through the end of World War II, demonstrating the ways the military, the press, and women themselves constructed categories for war reporting that promoted and prevented women’s access to war: the “war correspondent,” who covered war-related news, and the “woman war correspondent,” who covered the woman’s angle of war. As the first study to examine these concepts, from their emergence in the press through their use in military directives, this dissertation relies upon a variety of sources to consider the roles and influences, not only of the women who worked as war correspondents but of the individuals and institutions surrounding their work. Nineteenth and early 20th century newspapers continually featured the woman war correspondent—often as the first or only of her kind, even as they wrote about more than sixty such women by 1914.

Murphy, 1 Dan Murphy Professor Aronson and Professor Cahill Senior Thesis 5 December 2010 There’s No Crying in Baseball: Feminization, Sport, and Spectacle in the All American Girls’ Professional Baseball League Flipping through the television channels or browsing on the internet, people more and more are coming across advertisements for a new sports attraction: The Lingerie Football League (LFL). This women’s league began as a Super bowl halftime side show but has exploded in popularity and viewership. The LFL features all-female athletes, who wear helmets, shoulder pads, lingerie, and little else. The League’s Mission Statement sets out the image it would like to create for itself: “The Lingerie Football League has become the ultimate fan-driven live sports phenomenon—blending action, impact, and beauty.” 1 To obtain viewers, the league posts advertisements that exploit the sexuality of its players, sometimes having them pose with no clothes on at all.

After all, she spent years of her life exploring the Town of Milwaukee Union Cemetery, tucked away north of Bayshore Mall in Whitefish Bay. She remembered running through the cemetery as a girl "to scare ourselves on Halloween". Years later, as a neighbor and a historian, she began tending the little cemetery and quite literally, uncovering its history. Bird died of emphysema Thursday at the Glendale condominium she called home the last four years. She was 69. "She really died from cigarette smoking" said husband John D. Bird. "That's what did it." She was born Miriam Young in Milwaukee. When she was 4, her parents moved to Whitefish Bay. That was where she grew up and spent her adult life. It was also where she became the undisputed expert on local history, both in the village and the greater North Shore area. In her earlier years Bird had worked as a secretary. She met her husband when their mothers—concerned about their two twenty-something children remaining unmarried—managed to fix them up for a date.

  • 1 Pray Ball? Reflections on the Serious Liturgical Challenge of Giving Thanks for Baseball by Mark W. Stamm, Associate Professor
    Pray Ball? Reflections on the Serious Liturgical Challenge of Giving Thanks for Baseball By Mark W. Stamm, Associate Professor of Christian Worship, Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University Twenty-Second Cooperstown Symposium on Baseball and American Culture June 2-4, 2010 (The Scripture quotations contained herein are from the New Revised Standard Version Bible, copyright © 1989, Division of Christian Education of the National Council of Churches of Christ in the U.S.A. Used by permission. All rights reserved.) I present this paper as liturgical scholar, ordained United Methodist minister, and baseball fan. I hold membership in the North American Academy of Liturgy and the North Texas Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church, as well as the Society for American Baseball Research. Can these distinct realms of discourse and practice have a helpful conversation, or must they remain separate? Committed practitioners have lived both realities, of course, and it takes but little effort to start a baseball conversation in any of these realms. When I began studies in the Boston University Doctor of Theology degree program in 1989, I was informed that clergy could obtain a pass to Fenway Park that would allow one to sit in any unoccupied seat; that is, when one could find an empty seat in the years following the Impossible Dream, Fisk’s homer, and the ball that dribbled under Buckner’s glove.1 More than that, my wife is an equally ardent baseball fan as well as the best scorekeeper in the family, so a pass for one ticket would have been a problem.

TWIGGS EFORE passing judgment on this book, the editors request that you consider carefully the points which are to influence your verdict. A B school annual is valuable, not for what it is, but for what it represents. The fidelity of the representation is the quality on which the book must stand or fall. In preparing this annual, we have tried to emphasize the pleasant events of the past year, and to lose the other kind in oblivion. For there are un­ pleasant features in school life, even though none of us have discovered them.
