Samoan Submission Machines
Samoan Submission Machines: Grappling with Representations of Samoan Identity in Professional Wrestling Theo Plothe1 Savannah State University [email protected] Amongst the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. The discussion of Samoan identity in the context of sport has examined Maori identity and masculinity in New Zealand, among other topics, but there has yet to be work which considers Samoans within professional wrestling. This research investigates Samoan identity through a content analysis of televised wrestling matches. This research identifies six primary stereotypes under which Samoan identity is portrayed. These portrayals of Samoan characters, I argue, flatten the representation of this ethnic group within wrestling and culture at large. Keywords: Samoans, identity, representation, gimmicks Introduction Among the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. This research investigates the identity of Samoans within professional wrestling, and the different ways they are constructed and presented to audiences. “Gimmicks,” characters portrayed by a wrestler “resulting in the sum of fictional elements, attire and wrestling ability” (Oliva and Calleja 3) utilized by Samoans have run the gamut from the wild uncivilized savage, to the sumo (both in villainous Japanese and comically absurd iterations), to the ultra-cool mogul who wears silk shirts and fancy shoes. Their ability to cut promos, an important facet of the modern gimmick allowing wrestlers to address their opponents and storylines, varies widely as well, but all lie within their Samoan identity. -

A 7/2001) 1033 Educational Technology Philosophy The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) has tracked student achievement for nearly three decades. In 1996, the results of the NAEP indicated a link between certain kinds of technology use, higher scores on the NAEP, and an improved school climate.1 It is important to note that not all types of technology use produced these results. In fact, the results indicated that the use of computers for "drill and practice" may result in decreased student scores. The technology use that proved most beneficial centered on using the computer for simulation, problem solving and analysis. The computer's most powerful uses are for making things visual," says James Kaput, a math professor at the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth. "It can make visual abstract processes that that are otherwise ineffable." As an organization, NHA focuses on delivering a "back to basics" approach to education based on research to generate student performance results. NHA's philosophy is grounded in the premise that the primary educational focus in elementary school should be mastering the core academic subjects of English, reading, mathematics, history, and science. Use of technology within the framework of the core academic curriculum must be age appropriate and must enhance the learning process. -

Video Games and the Mobilization of Anxiety and Desire
PLAYING THE CRISIS: VIDEO GAMES AND THE MOBILIZATION OF ANXIETY AND DESIRE BY ROBERT MEJIA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2012 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Kent A. Ono, Chair Professor John Nerone Professor Clifford Christians Professor Robert A. Brookey, Northern Illinois University ABSTRACT This is a critical cultural and political economic analysis of the video game as an engine of global anxiety and desire. Attempting to move beyond conventional studies of the video game as a thing-in-itself, relatively self-contained as a textual, ludic, or even technological (in the narrow sense of the word) phenomenon, I propose that gaming has come to operate as an epistemological imperative that extends beyond the site of gaming in itself. Play and pleasure have come to affect sites of culture and the structural formation of various populations beyond those conceived of as belonging to conventional gaming populations: the workplace, consumer experiences, education, warfare, and even the practice of politics itself, amongst other domains. Indeed, the central claim of this dissertation is that the video game operates with the same political and cultural gravity as that ascribed to the prison by Michel Foucault. That is, just as the prison operated as the discursive site wherein the disciplinary imaginary was honed, so too does digital play operate as that discursive site wherein the ludic imperative has emerged. To make this claim, I have had to move beyond the conventional theoretical frameworks utilized in the analysis of video games. -
A Storm Is Coming! Lessons in Hurricane Preparedness
A Storm is Coming! Lessons in Hurricane Preparedness Georgia Redonet Long Middle School INTRODUCTION The busy 2004 hurricane season, with fifteen Atlantic storms certainly served to remind us that we should learn the essentials of hurricane preparedness. I find that a study of hurricanes and their effect on our state’s coastal areas provides an exciting and interesting start to the school year in my seventh grade Texas History classes. We study the causes and effects of the storms and how to prepare for emergency situations. While this unit will focus only on hurricane preparedness, in the classroom we will first study the formation and structure of hurricanes and round out our studies by investigating the Great Galveston Storm of 1900. I would suggest that those teachers living in coastal areas choose a storm from their own locale. When there was the possibility that our area might be struck by an approaching storm, as was the case with Ivan in September 2004, the energy level in my classroom was electrifying. Students eagerly watched the news and weather and were going to the school computer lab to check out weather web sites. On May 24, 2005, the American Red Cross reported that they had found many Americans in coastal regions who were not prepared for the coming hurricane season that lasts from June 1 to November 30: Waiting until the last minute to prepare for a hurricane, or assuming that a major storm will not hit your community is a mistake, said Joe Becker, Senior Vice President, Preparedness and Response for the American Red Cross. -
