Abstract
This paper explains that, with her recognizable Asian face, intense interviewing tactics and controversial techniques, Connie Chung has been a staple in broadcast news reporting for almost four decades. The author points out that, in the early 1990s, Chung became one of the most recognizable faces on television when she went back to CBS to be the anchor and correspondent of "Saturday Night with Connie Chung" and the Sunday edition of the "CBS Evening News". The paper relates that, in 1995, the reason for Chung's dismissal ranged from her poor work relationship with Dan Rather, to her controversial interviewing techniques, to charges of sexism by Chung.

From the Paper
"Living in Washington, D.C., the Chung family was like any other family - celebrating holidays, enjoying picnics, and attending school. Like many Chinese families, education was very important to the family. One of the best educators for Chung was the television. As a child, she would pretend the vacuum hose was a microphone and would make up interviews with people. Chung attended Montgomery Blair High School in Silver Spring, MD, and then went on to pursue at first Biology and then Journalism at the University of Maryland. Since their family had no sons, Connie wanted to be the successful daughter to carry the family name."

"INTRODUCTION
The documentary "Rosie the Riveter" by Connie Field and the book Rosie the Riveter Revisited by Sherna Berger Gluck refer to a period in American history that can be considered the beginning of a major shift in the role of women. During World War II, when millions of men were conscripted or voluntarily joined the armed forces, defense plants in the United States had to continue producing needed armaments and other goods for the war effort. At the time, relatively few women worked outside the home, and even fewer would have worked in factories like those producing airplanes and other military goods. This changed as a female work force was enlisted to see to it that production did not decrease in this time of emergency. The women who took these jobs found a new sense of accomplishment, freedom, and.."

Abstract
The paper discusses and summarizes "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?", Joyce Carol Oates's giddily frightening short story about a teenage girl's terror when confronted with the character of the wolf-like predator Arnold Friend. The paper describes Connie's thoughts and feelings and how they ultimately determine the story's outcome.

From the Paper
"Arnold's threatening words and actions while outside Connie's doorstep are foreshadowed early on when he warns Connie after first noticing her outside a drive-in restaurant: "Gonna get you, baby" (p. 2279). From then on, Arnold's quest to "get" Connie feels to Connie, in its dangerous intensity, like the predatory evil of the scariest fairy tale characters, e.g., the Big Bad Wolf. Shaggy-haired Arnold who drives "a jalopy painted gold" (p. 2279) first notices Connie at a "drive-in restaurant where older kids hung out" (p. 2278). Like Connie, the reader becomes frightened by the appearance, words, and actions of Arnold and Ellie Oscar. Both seem to Connie, suddenly, like evil incarnate when they arrive at the front door and refuse to leave."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that Connie Field's documentary 'The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter' explores a world and a social context far removed from the world of working women today in the early 21st century. As such, its use as a non-typical resource for study might appear surprising. However, as this essay argues, many of the issues addressed in this documentary with respect to women and work - choice, racism, the dichotomy of domestic and paid labor - continue to be issues confronting women today over a half-century later. From an inclusive political economy perspective, this essay argues the thesis that the experiences of the women represented in 'The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter' are reflective of broader, large scale social phenomena in regard to the differential treatment of women's labor in our globalized capitalist economies and the state structures that support these economies.

Rosie the Riveter in an Historical Context
Choice, Opportunity and the "Breadwinner Ideal"
Opportunity and Status of Women's Labour
Conclusion

From the Paper
"When we understand women's labour in this historical continuum, we gain insights into the larger structural and economic forces shaping not only opportunities for women but also the exploitation of women's labour, and the restrictions placed upon women's choices by capitalist power structures. The fact that women in the 1990s worked to ensure family survival in much the same way as did women in the 1930s is indicative of the deep structural forces that have determined women's labour opportunities over time. Moreover, this historical contextualization allows us to understand the depiction of women and work in The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter in a more complex way. Many women, and in particular women from low-income families, who were often coincidentally women of colour and/or recent immigrants, have had to work in the paid labour force before the Second World War. The significance of the historical events outlined in Connie Field's documentary is not so much that women were in the paid labour force for the first time but that the nature of their labour, and their standard of recompense, was radically different from that which they "enjoyed" in the years before the Second World War."

Abstract
Connie Panzarino's "The Me in the Mirror", an autobiographical account of her life as a writer and activist born with a rare disease known as Spinal Muscular Atrophy, is an inspiring story of one woman's struggle for survival and achievement. However, from the point of view of women's and disability studies, inspirational studies are not by themselves particularly significant. This paper will argue that what renders Panzarino's work noteworthy to students and professionals in this field is her repeated transgressing of societal taboos surrounding women and disability. As will be seen, Panzarino's focus on her body as a site of resistance - in particular, her assertion of her sexuality as a disabled woman - informs her theoretical critique of the associated constructs of patriarchy, ableism, racism and homophobia.

Abstract
This paper focuses on Panzarino's struggle and experiences as a disabled person when she was a child until she reached adulthood. In addition to the discussion of her life as child to an adult (which is included in her book, "The Me in the Mirror"), Panzarinos' life as an activist (feminist and advocate for equality among "able- bodied" and disabled people) is also discussed, since her revolutionary thoughts and ideas about "disability oppression" presents a valuable position for people who are also physically disabled like Panzarino.

From the Paper
""The Me in the Mirror" is an autobiographical work written by Constance Panzarino, a writer, activist and artist who talked about her life as a disable cause by the rare disease Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type II. Connie Panzarino was born on November 26, 1947 in Brooklyn, New York, and her book chronicles her life as a child growing and living with the said muscular disease. The book is divided into different sections that focus on various topics, and her narration is not a chronicle of her life from childhood to adulthood, but rather, Panzarino touched various aspects of her life as a disabled person. In addition to her struggle for physical mobility, her book speaks of her struggles also as a woman who is disabled, as an individual doing passionate work for her fellow disabled individuals, and most importantly, her fight against the concept of "Ableism," a term that she coined to describe the belief that people have more power and more right to things when they're stronger and more able. In effect, Panzarino's fight against ableism is her way of destroying what she terms as "disability oppression." "

Abstract
In the short story "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been", a pretty teenage girl, Connie, is severely frightened by a predatory male character whose terrifying evil is reminiscent of Little Red Riding Hood's "Big Bad Wolf". This paper examines how through descriptions of Arnold Friend, his accomplice Ellie Oscar and the fear of this pair that fills Connie, Joyce Carol Oates uses the concept of evil, as represented by Arnold and Ellie, as an omnipresent, fairy tale-like symbolic force that exists only in relationship to Connie as prey.

From the Paper
"In 'Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been' Joyce Carol Oates seems to define evil not only through the actions of the evildoer(s), but also from within the imagination of the victim. Oates "describes" the embodiment of evil as that of the predatory older men in the gold jalopy, especially the more talkative and aggressive one, a shaggy-haired individual who calls himself (ironically) Arnold Friend, though he is anything but a friend. As Connie grows more frightened of Arnold's escalating threats, she eventually allows her own imagination to run wild, to the point where she can neither think clearly anymore, nor even manage to use her own telephone to call the police.

Abstract
This paper examines how the innocence of youth is characterized perfectly in Joyce Carol Oates? short story, "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" It looks at how the character of Connie discovers who she is and how she does things apart from her family to help her find her identity. It shows how Connie experiences new, stimulating emotions that are difficult for her to understand and how she illustrates the naivete of teenagers who wish to be grown up.

From the Paper
"There are several statements that Connie makes that reveal her innocence. Connie is still like a child because she says that her mother "make me want to throw up sometimes" (328). Connie is also naive because she thinks she is getting away with something significant when she lies to her mother. Her false sense of pride is illustrated when she wonders if it is "cruel to fool her so much" (330). In addition, when Arnold Friend approaches her, she is friendly to him. For example, when Arnold starts talking about Bobby King, she relaxes and tells him that he is "kind of great" (332). She also asks him, "What's all that stuff painted on your car?" (333). These statements indicate that her guard is down and she is more not concerned with the idea that this mysterious person might hurt her."

Abstract
This paper examines the controversial book "Lady Chatterley's Lover" by D.H. Lawrence which is full of social, political and cultural implications. It looks at how, by focusing on the forbidden relationship between Lady Connie Chatterley and Oliver Mellors, Lawrence reveals a great deal about the structure and politics of post-war society. It discusses how although the main theme of the book is love, the unproductiveness, inhumanity and ugliness of life in a local mining community play a large role and how the political elements of the book are clearly demonstrated by Lady Chatterley's life in a society devoted to making money.

From the Paper
"The Chatterleys' marriage was main theme in the story, as society unfairly viewed its failure as the fault of Lady Chatterley, who had a difficult time maintaining a relationship with a husband who was half paralyzed and half crazy. She looks to Mellors to make her feel alive again. However, the prosecution fails to realize that the couple is building a strong relationship that has a good chance of leading to a successful marriage. They can only point finders and accuse the couple of immorality."
