When "On Women" becomes a nine-credit foundations course for 360 students, it slips closer to the commodity status and has to be made "marketable." At the same time, its potential to radicalize the students through consciousness-raising and offering narratives of emancipation tends to be minimized. We are surrounded by calls to make the material more "palatable" and "less offensive." Interestingly, the language used in voicing such demands is derived from business culture and technology. Thus content selection follows a "shopping cart" model, tossing up tidbits of information to suit general interests of a diverse group of students. There is a marked suspicion of any intellectual challenge as from year to year we have been encouraged through student feedback to simplify and "dumb down" ...

Black Widow's Eyes, the stomach-turning In the Ether, and You Stand By Me read like a besotted teenager's diary entries. The 10 tracks that make up the "mini-opera" fare much better and Who trainspotters will likely hear fragments of familiar riffs from the back catalogue. The bonus five-song DVD serves to remind us visually what [Pete Townshend] meant when he wrote "Hope I die before I get old. Eddie Montgomery and Troy Gentry are at their best when they cut loose with in-yer-face attitude infested rockers. Your Tears Are Comin' is as if Jerry Lee Lewis joined Lynyrd Skynyrd.

The omission of ideology from managerial discourse leaves unacknowledged the dominant influences that shape patterns of thinking and acting. The Cold War offers one such framework for analyzing the intersection of management and ideology. Specifically, the antiCommunist blacklist in the United States offers a rich opportunity to explore the actions of business leaders and to test the assumptions on which those actions were based. Businessmen played a key role in creating and supporting the blacklist. This study suggests that enforcers of the blacklist distorted the nature of public response. The evidence suggests that businessmen were responding from an ideological rather than a pragmatic position and that, from a pragmatic perspective, they might have been well advised to ignore the bl...

The 100-minute Amjad "deconstructs, reconstructs and adapts" the Russian classics, but not in a slavish way, says [Edouard Lock]. "It's more references to passages and to content, both emotional and stylistic. Lock, born in Casablanca, Morocco and raised in Quebec, says "[Amjad]" is a North African first name that is "transgender" -- male or female. "As well, it's a wink," he says. "In these ballets, when the creators wanted to refer to a freer, or more exotic, more sensual society, they'd often point to the Orient in the decor." Lock has acknowledged that the "ghost" of [Louise Lecavalier], with her platinum dreadlocks, is still onstage to a degree. The 5-foot-5 "flame on legs," who could hoist male partners over her head and catch them in mid-air, attained mass fame as the filmed ...

Despite the weighty political themes, [Neil Young] sounds positively invigorated. Following the reflective country folk of 2005's Prairie Wind, he's returned to the basic ragged distorted guitar-bass-drums setup augmented by a trumpet and 100-member choir. Let's Impeach the President is the most incendiary tune with Young and the choir shouting "flip flop" as [George W. Bush] soundbites blare in the background. The Restless Consumer is a damning condemnation of Madison Avenue with a shout-and-respond chorus. Flags of Freedom is almost anthemic and should end up on a future greatest hits album. Roger and Out is a plaintive number of remembrance about a friend who died for his country. The box is split into CDs Jupiter and Mars, with the larger planet boasting the stronger songs. The coll...
