Abstract:

In the late 1990s and early 2000s, a locally produced program on community television took the GLBTIQ community by storm. Running for seven years on channel Briz31, Tamara Tonite appeared in, and produced, 365 episodes, interviewing many locally based and national personalities. The success of the show has not been matched by any other privately produced show on community television in Australia. Tamara initially took on the show to promote her own ‘dial a drag queen’ business, but TamaraTonite took on a form of its own towards the end of 1997. While the show drew a few detractors — with some

Abstract:

Abstract Background Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder that usually manifests cognitive dysfunction in the early stages. These disorders have a significant impact on patients’ daily life, work and social functioning. Cognitive dysfunction is one of the core symptoms of schizophrenia and is often difficult to completely alleviate with conventional drug treatment. In recent years, television media, as a popular multi-sensory stimulation method, has been gradually introduced into the field of mental health intervention. Through dual visual and auditory stimulation, television media helps e

Introduction For migrants, the dream of a better life is often expressed by the metaphor of the journey (Papastergiadis 31). Propelled by a variety of forces and choices, migrant life narratives tend to revolve around movement from one place to another, from a homeland associated with cultural and spiritual origins to a hostland which offers new opportunities and possibilities. In many cases, however, their dreams of migrants are deferred; migrants endure hardships and make sacrifices in the hope of a better life for their children.

When we think of disability today in the Western world, Christopher Reeve most likely comes to mind.

As a person with acquired quadriplegia, Christopher Reeve has become both the epitome of disability in Western culture — the powerful cultural myth of disability as tragedy and catastrophe — and, in an intimately related way, the icon for the high-technology quest for cure.

1909–22: Turkey exterminated over 1.5 million of its ethnically Armenian, and hundreds of thousands of its ethnically Greek and Assyrian, citizens. Most died in 1915.
