Fragmentation of the power of the chief executive is not a safeguard but a stumbling block in the path of efficient and effective action on his part in carrying out the program on which he campaigned. The need for inore authority for the Governor has been recog­ nized for more than 90 years. In 1875 a constitutional commiss­ ion of ten members headed by Edward Kent, a two-term gover­ nor and justice of the state supreme court, proposed that the Council be abolished.

  • Passages of Marriage: Five Growth Stages Topic(S): Marriage Stages
    Passages of Marriage: Five Growth Stages Topic(s): Marriage Stages Our very nature throws into marriage certain clinkers that we do not recognize and cannot anticipate. Those clinkers are generated by our families of origin—by the way our relatives did things, said things, and hid things. Dr. Hemfelt likens them to time-release capsules. Things can be chugging along comfortably. Suddenly, with no warning, one of those time-release beads goes off. The union is not what it was, and something has gone dreadfully awry. Yet these and other changes in a marriage, can be turned from bad to good once you recognize what they are. A marriage that appears dull and mundane can be made to sparkle. A hopeless situation can emerge into bright promise. A good union can be made better. It all depends upon finding and managing the sources of trouble, the clinkers and changes. We want to help you do that. Because no marriage is perfect, every couple weathers these problems to some extent. But when the problems loom too large to handle and threaten the union, trouble will follow. When Doctors Newman’s or Minirth or Hemfelt deal with a marital problem, they deal with 3 entities: the husband, the wife, and the marriage itself, as if the marriage were a living, breathing organism. We have found that if a marriage is not growing, it’s dying, just as any living organism. When a marriage gets hung up in a passage, it ceases growing. Growth is, therefore, critical. By definition, then, PASSAGES ARE PREDICTABLE AND NECESSARY STAGES, INVOLVING THE PHYSICAL, THE EMOTIONAL, AND THE SPIRITUAL.

  • The History and Social Impact of Religious Broadcasting
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 284 229 CS 210 606 AUTHOR Neuendorf, Kimberly A.; And Others TITLE The History and Social Impact of Religious Broadcasting. PUB DATE Aug 87 NOTE 35p.; Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Association for Zducation in Journalism and Mass Communication (70th, San Antonio, TX, August 1-4, 1987). PUB TYPE Speeches/Conference Papers (150) -- Historical Materials (060) -- Reports - Research/Technical (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PCO2 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Broadcast Television; Cable Television; Church Role; *Programing (Broadcast); *Religion; Television Research; *Television Viewing IDENTIFIERS Evangelical Christians; *Religious Broadcasting; *Television History ABSTRACT Several aspects of the history of religious broadcasting are examined in this paper. First, the paper provides an informative review of scholarly treatments of the history of religious broadcasting in the United States, tracing the evolution from early broadcasts of simple church services to today's evangelical paid-time programming. The paper then traces receat developments in the structure of religious television, and identifies three major trends: (1) the growth of high-energy, entertaining evangelical presentations; (2) the adoption of the broadcast/cable network system; and (3) the adaptation of traditionally secular television formats to the religious task. Next, the paper describes the viewership of religious television via a review of pertinent research literature, identifying a shift away from the stereotypical older, female viewer. The potential social effects of religious television are then explored, with primary emphasis on three areas which have garnered great criticism: the impact of religious television viewing on church attendance, the purported negative impact of religious television solicitations on church contributions, and the role of politics in religious television.
