Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to examine a single day's exposure to media and news, to determine if the information contained in a particular story has been disseminated and how it has been disseminated to others. The paper discusses the story itself, theories on media, and the dissemination of information. It concludes that subjective opinions and a lack of common guidelines for disseminating information prevent most people from becoming involved in the vast majority of news stories.

Abstract
In this paper, Gramsci also provides a summary of the history of ideas that often display the problems of history being directed from a self-interested source (via the ruling classes), which can be disseminated through related elite institutions. The media and academic institutions plays a large role in constructing history through a hegemonic construct.

Abstract
"Human beings utilize the fundamental concepts of communication in their daily lives as they encounter one another at home and in the workplace. Communication can be in many forms, such as verbal and nonverbal and must be disseminated effectively for clear understanding. Therefore, communication within the workplace is important for management and employees, along with teams and individuals, since effective communication leads to increased productivity and a collaboration of beliefs and ideas.

Abstract
The procedure manual for blood product transfusions disseminated by the Montefiore Medical Center is largely based on the policies and procedures set forth by the American Association of Blood Banks. While most of its procedures are universal in the sense that all hospitals carry out similar practices as stipulated by standardizing and accreditation institutions, variations in specific procedures are still present. The evidence base for the specific practices cited above is broad and must be evaluated periodically in-hospital to generate more appropriate, "local" evidence that further justifies their continued practice.

Abstract
This paper examines how state control over the dissemination of information in Soviet Russia was almost total, at least until the mid-1980s, and not only because of literal state control. It looks at how, before Gorbachev, when glasnost, or openness, began, journalists were educated in Marxist-Leninist theories and the current Communist Party policies and how, even after the loosening of government censorship in the 1980s, there were more pressures than just the Soviet censor keeping some of the news from being printed.

From the Paper
"In 1987, a Pravda editor told the ASNE delegation, "We once did not write about such things as crime or earthquakes, but now we have no taboos." Perhaps he should more accurately have said that they no longer had those official taboos. In Samarkand that year, the ASNE delegation found the local newspaper Lenin's Path under fire for publishing an article about suicide among young Muslim women. The editor, Boris Shegolikhin, said that while the story had not been censored "after all, by then even Pravda was writing about the sale of stale bread in city bakeries and the pitiful performance of the city's streetcars" but it had been criticized by readers who were displeased."

Abstract
The way in which society defines the structures and strictures of gender has developed in the last century into a field in which there is an abundance of textual dissertation concerning gender, identity, body image, and other issuances of definitional standards that often defy the status quo and change the way in which we think about what it is to be a man or woman. The paper shows that these essential qualities that define gender are harder to determine the more we explore the boundaries that have been set up, in many cases, as no more than cultural myths that represent the continuance of a socio-economic class system. One of these myths is the idea of the mythical body image, or the ideal physiological representation of a society in which gender lines are clearly defined in terms of male and female. This paper explores the idea of this image in terms of its contrivance, ramifications, social constructionism, and its support of gender stereotypes to provide an understanding of how our culture defines male and female images of perfection.

From the Paper
"Myths traditionally focus on the superhuman or divine while providing a model of behavior for their consumer, who is more often than not encouraged by them to accept a sort of socio-economic status quo, along with a sense of diversion and the illusion that in escaping reality, the person buying into the myth is escaping the status-quo of an
economically oriented social class system. This particular diversion is carried on through time and changed, if slightly, by successive generations as the gradations of society change with time (although the continuance of myth is often retrogressive concerning the continuance of the society). Although the theme may only change slightly, the
presentation of a new myth within this traditional trope suggests other changes that are more important."

Abstract
This paper examines the ongoing and evolving process of selling and disseminating music through the Internet. The author discusses how such activity has provoked a number of economic as well as artistic debates for the music business and for the computer and technology businesses that allow such technology to be accessed. This paper particularly focuses on the anti-trust issues that have arisen over the course of this debate.

From the Paper
"First of all, the issue of disseminating music over the Internet provokes the perplexing question of who really "owns" the commercial product of a pieces of music, anyway? Is the owner the person or persons who simply hear the tune and keep humming it? Is the owner the musician who produces the product? Or are the owners the music companies musicians have signed artistic rights to? Clearly, to survive musicians must be able to charge for the product they produce, and the companies have control over the specifics of how to market that product. But once a song is in the public sphere, do not consumers have a right to "pass on" that music product in ways that they see fit, even if those ways may inhibit the sales of recordings of that music?"

Abstract
The paper relates that the Grand Tour was the term used first to describe a tour of the culture and antiquities of the Mediterranean region, and as Barry Bergdoll notes, this tour was also one of the major means of disseminating Neoclassical taste, especially among the English. The paper looks at how with reference specifically to architect Giovanni Piranesi, Bergdoll writes that Piranesi's style "transformed perception of the ruined remains of the Roman, Etruscan, and eventually even Greek past for several generations of artists, architects, and clients" (Bergdoll 15). The paper explains that Neoclassicism refers to a style in which forms and details from Greek and Roman architecture were revived in a new form.

Abstract
This paper shows how the Christian scriptures use of an intensely personal, narrative form of story that gives that religion its unique quality, as distinct from Judaism, the religion Christianity evolved and sprung from. It suggests that because of the fact that Jesus? believes were disseminated in a narrative structure, the confession and the personal became the dominant Christian mode of understanding the world, rather than the collective and the tribal.

From the paper:

"The New Testament, or Christian Bible, is divided into three basic sections, that of the Gospels, the Epistles, and lastly the Book of Revelation. The latter two sections were composed long after the death of Jesus. The last has a strikingly a similar form to apocalyptic books of that period. However, the first section, the section that is the founding core of the Christian story, could be entitled ?Jesus speaks.? Although these books were written considerably after the actual life and death of Jesus, the gospels thus attempt to convey a certain sense of accuracy, of reported testimony of the life of Jesus. "
