neg: Franco Levi Franco Levi ( September 20 , 1914 in Turin -- January 10 , 2009 ) was an Italian engineer .   Professor Franco Levi , Honorary President of CEB and FIP .  He received his degree in Engineering from the Ecole Centrale in Paris and from the Polytechnic University of Turin in the years 1936 and 1937 . Already assistant to Professor Gustavo Colonnetti in Turin , in 1938 he had to go into exile to France and later on to Switzerland due to the anti-Semitic laws .   Back in Italy in 1945 , he could resume at the Polytechnic University of Turin his outstanding research work , which was covering the most recent topics of structural mechanics and engineering , and published well known papers and books on the theory of states of coaction , on plastic theory , on the time-dependent behaviour of concrete structures , with particular regard to creep effects . He designed the Torino Palavela .   However , his attention was attracted since the beginning by the need of a quick transfer of scientific achievements to the practical design and construction of structures , and his efforts in such a direction are certainly among the most important services rendered to the community of structural engineers in which he was successful and for which he will be remembered .   The great opportunity for that action was the development of the new technique of pre-stressed concrete , in which he was scientifically involved since 1938 , during his first research period . After the war , since 1945 to 1961 , as Director of the CNR Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche ( Italian National Research Council ) in Turin , Franco Levi had an essential role in the international discussion on the theoretical and practical aspects of this innovative technique and on the establishment of design rules to be internationally agreed .   The innovation of prestressed concrete , together with the new approaches of plastic design and of probabilistic safety criteria induced the most advanced specialists of structural design and analysis to install in 1953 a new committee ( Comité Européen du Béton -- CEB ) having the objective of a coordination and synthesis of research and of the creation and international harmonization of the principles and rules for the conception , calculation , construction , and maintenance of concrete structures according to the new approaches .  Franco Levi was appointed President of CEB from 1957 and maintained this position until 1968 , leading this organization , with his dynamic action , to the publication of the first and the second set of CEB Recommendations .   Between 1966 and 1970 he was also President of the '' Fédération Internationale de la Précontrainte -- FIP '' , which had the role of promoting the innovative technique in the practical field .  In 1979 the European Community considered the work of CEB ripe to become the basis for the first Eurocode ; Franco Levi was appointed Chairman of the Drafting Committee for Eurocode 2 ( Concrete Structures ) . Eurocode 2 was printed by CEC in the famous Luxemburg edition 1988 , together with EC1 , EC3 , EC6 , EC8 . Franco Levi had an essential role in the coordination of the drafting of such 5 Eurocodes based on the same criteria of the `` Limit States '' and on what was called the `` Semiprobabilistic approach '' . This format still remains the format of the subsequent set of Eurocodes issued by CEN TC 250 ( Structural Eurocodes ) .   The original ideas , the developments in the field of the new safety approaches , the perseverance , the constant attention to the new achievements of science ( collected in the updated CEB Model Codes ) , and 40 years of enthusiastic work on them made of Franco Levi the real father of the Eurocodes .  In the same time he was Professor of Structural Analysis at the University of Venice and at the Polytechnic University of Turin and Director of the Department of Structural Engineering and Soil Mechanics until 1989 , when he became Emeritus .   In 1986 he became Full Member of the Academy of Sciences of Turin .  He received honours from the Universities of Liège , Waterloo , Venice , the American Concrete Institute , AICAP , and the Trasenster , Freyssinet , Mörsch , Caquot , Torroja Medals , as well as the Golden Medal of the Italian Government .   For his high moral and scientific stature Franco Levi will be remembered as one of the greatest minds in structural engineering at the international level .

neg: The Fudge Family in England The Fudge Family in England is an 1835 epistolary verse novel by the Irish-born writer Thomas Moore . It was a sequel to his 1818 work The Fudge Family in Paris , which had depicted the visit of the fictional British Fudge Family to Paris where the daughter Biddy had fallen in love with a young man who she had taken to be the King of Prussia but was in fact a draper . The original work was extremely popular , and Moore had received requests to write a follow-up . He began working on The Fudge Family In Italy , but abandoned it and it was n't until seventeen years after the original that the sequel was released .   The sequel is set some years later , in a spa town likely to be Bath where the grown-up Biddy has travelled . Biddy has since become an evangelical Protestant , and because of the large inheritance she is expected to receive she is a target for fortune-hunting Irish suitors . One of these is a `` Mick on the make '' , Patrick Magan who secretly prefers Biddy 's niece Fanny . Magan 's attempts to woo Biddy are undermined by a rival , Mortimer O'Mulligan . O'Mulligan , who had converted from Catholicism to Protestantism in the hope of enriching himself . He marries Biddy while Magan elopes with Fanny . The story concludes with Biddy 's rich uncle leaving his money to Fanny rather than Biddy which leaves O'Mulligan without a penny .   The work was less successful than Moore 's earlier work and was not widely reviewed , probably due to a decline in Moore 's popularity , although its critical reception was good . The Times wrote that Moore 's observations were `` as keen , and his satire as pungent , as ever '' . The work was the beginning of the end of Moore 's writing career , and most of the rest of his work was on his unsuccessful four-volume History of Ireland .   It is likely that the character of Mortimer O'Mulligan was based on the real-life Mortimer O'Sullivan who had been a fierce critic of Moore .

neg: Joe Guy (musician) Joe Guy ( born Joseph Luke Guy ; September 20 , 1920 -- 1962 ) was an American jazz trumpeter . Guy had a promising career as a young progressive bop musician as he worked alongside more prominent musical acts until a drug addiction sidelined him from further success .   Much of Guy 's early personal life is obscured , but it is known he began his professional music career performing in New York City , and joined Fats Waller 's backup band in the late 1930s . Following that , in 1938 , Guy succeeded Dizzy Gillespie in Teddy Hill 's orchestra , and patterned a playing style that emulated his musical role model , Roy Eldridge . Despite his range , speed , and potential , Guy never managed to surpass Eldridge 's abilities , though Guy was considered a musical talent when taking into account his young age . Additionally , he became a key soloist in Coleman Hawkins ' short-lived big band in 1940 .   In 1941 -- 42 , Guy was a regular performer as a member of the after-hours band at Minton 's Playhouse , alongside Nick Fenton , Kenny Clarke , and Thelonious Monk in jam sessions that proceeded early bop music . Also during this period , Guy was actively involved in numerous recordings by Jerry Newman , and also appeared on songs by Charlie Christian , Hot Lips Page , Roy Eldridge , and Don Byas . Guy began incorporating Gillespie 's influences into his playing , with his performance on Monk 's 1942 song `` Epistrophy '' arguably being the highlight of Guy 's recording career . Much of his appearances as an instrumentalist are marked by his enthusiasm and tempo , however on occasions Guy would over exert himself and consequently sound erratic .   Guy struggled with a heroin addiction throughout the majority of his brief career . In 1945 -- 46 , Guy was involved with Billie Holiday both professionally and intimately . When Guy and Holiday were both busted for drug possession , the two cut ties thereafter . Afterwards , Guy moved to his birthplace in Birmingham , Alabama before falling into relative obscurity among the music industry . Still , he performed at the Woodland Club with local musician Frank Adams , and advised others about the dangers of his addiction . Guy died in 1962 .

neg: Ray Bauduc Ray Bauduc ( June 18 , 1906 -- January 8 , 1988 ) was a jazz drummer best known for his work with the Bob Crosby Orchestra and their band-within-a-band , the Bobcats , between 1935 and 1942 .   Bauduc was born in New Orleans , Louisiana . He was the son of the cornetist Jules Bauduc and his elder brother Jules was also a professional musician , a banjoist-bandleader . Ray Bauduc 's youthful work in New Orleans included stints in the band of Johnny Bayersdorffer and early radio broadcasts . His New Orleans origins instilled in him a love for two-beat drumming , which he retained even when he played with Bob Crosby 's swing era big band . In 1926 he moved to New York City to join Joe Venuti 's band . His other work in the 1920s include recording sessions with the Original Memphis Five and a stint in the Scranton Sirens which also included Tommy Dorsey and Jimmy Dorsey .   His stint with the Bob Crosby Orchestra brought him national fame . He co-composed , together with bassist Bob Haggart , the two big hits that the Bob Crosby orchestra achieved : `` South Rampart Street Parade '' ( a New Orleans parade-type number first recorded in November 1937 ) , and `` Big Noise from Winnetka '' ( a bass and drums duet with Haggart , recorded in 1938 ) .   His style , making use of woodblocks , cowbells , the China cymbal and tom-toms , marked him out from most drummers of the swing era , and made him one of the few white drummers ( the others being George Wettling , Dave Tough and Gene Krupa , but they were not so obvious ) to be directly influenced by Warren `` Baby '' Dodds .   Ray Bauduc was a trend setter in traditional jazz circles . His precise , disciplined , yet fiery patterns and syncopated fills helped New Orleans drummers make the transition into swing from the rigid , clipped progressions that had defined the previous era . The son of the great cornetist Jules Bauduc , his brother Jules Jr. taught Bauduc drums . His sister was also a musician , a pianist . Bauduc 's first professional job came with a band that accompanied films .   Bauduc served in the U.S. Army Artillery Band until November 1944 . Upon his discharge he and former Crosby group leader Gil Rodin formed a short-lived big band . Bauduc toured with a septet in 1946 and also worked in Tommy Dorsey 's orchestra from August to October of the year . In early 1947 he joined Bob Crosby 's new group , leaving in 1948 to play with Jimmy Dorsey , where he stayed for the next two years . He freelanced on the West Coast for a couple of years before joining Jack Teagarden in 1952 .   In 1955 he formed a band with fellow Crosby alumnus Nappy Lamare . The new outfit found considerable success , touring nationally and recording several albums . He retired to Bellaire , Texas , in the early 1960s .   From 1960 , Bauduc lived in Bellaire , Texas in semi-retirement , but visited New Orleans in 1983 where he was greeted effusively . He also appeared occasionally at Crosby Orchestra reunions and worked with Pud Brown on several recordings His best known student from his teaching days in Bellaire , Texas is Charlie Harrington .   After the break-up of the Crosby band , Bauduc organized his own small groups ( often in a swing or even bebop style ) , rejoined Bob Crosby for occasional reunions , worked with Jimmy Dorsey ( 1948 ) and Jack Teagarden ( 1952 -- 55 ) , before joining fellow ex-Bobcat Nappy Lamare in a highly successful dixieland band that lasted until 1960 , after which Bauduc went into semi-retirement in Bellaire , Texas . He died in Houston , Texas on January 8 , 1988 .

neg: Romantic racism Romantic racism is a form of racism in which members of a dominant group project their fantasies onto members of oppressed groups . Feminist scholars have accused Norman Mailer , Jack Kerouac , and other Beatnik authors of the 1950s of romantic racism . They maintain that the dominant mainstream culture of the 1950s in the United States stressed conformity and held up middle-class suburban families as the cultural ideal , and that it was indifferent to art and literature , upheld racial segregation , and despised or ignored black achievements , such as jazz . Those , like the novelist Norman Mailer , who felt limited by or alienated from mainstream culture , sought out influences from other cultures as form of rebellion . Mailer , a great fan of jazz music , created his concept of what it meant to be `` hip , '' or a member of the white urban counterculture , largely on his perception of the culture of urban African-Americans ( with whom the expression `` hip '' , meaning `` in the know '' , originated ) and articulated his vision in his essay `` The White Negro . '' Mailer , who considered himself an opponent of Victorian sexual repression and regimentation , idealized what he saw as the sexual and other freedoms of minority and other counter-cultural groups , overlooking the fact that in these groups sexual exploitation of women sometimes occurred.These critics consider his depictions of what he imagines African-American life to be like as an instance of what they call `` romantic racism '' , contending that he implies that in urban ghettoes -- filled with sex , drugs , and violence -- life is somehow enriched , rather than hurt , by poverty and crime . Mailer 's essay has also been criticized for spreading the stereotype of African-American men as hypermasculine and hypersexual .

neg: Erotic thriller An Erotic thriller is a film genre defined by a thriller with a thematic basis in illicit romance or erotic fantasy . Most erotic thrillers contain scenes of softcore sex and nudity , but the frequency and explicitness of those scenes varies .   Though similar films appeared as early as the 1960s , erotic thrillers emerged as a distinct genre in the late 1980s , bolstered by the popular success of Adrian Lyne 's Fatal Attraction in 1987 and a quickly expanding domestic and international market for softcore adult entertainment on cable television and home video . The genre had a classic period of growth and expansion in the 1990s , but by the early 2000s declined in production and popular appeal .   The potent combination of danger and romance , catering to both male and female audiences simultaneously , was the primary selling point for erotic thriller films during their classic period . The half-naked bodies displayed on posters , newspaper ads , and video box covers were accompanied by log lines that capture the unmistakable duality of the erotic thriller film :   If you think you can handle her , you 're dead wrong . -- Body Chemistry 3 : Point of Seduction  He was hired to watch . Now he 's tempted to touch . -- Night Eyes  Twin sisters cross the line into a deadly erotic fantasy land . -- Mirror Images   In all , over 300 erotic thriller films were produced in the 1990s , which is comparable to the number of thriller films made in the noir decade of the 1940s . The total number of films in the erotic thriller genre from 1985 to 2005 may number as high as over 500 . Like film noir , the genre has evolved and modernized , and new films continue to be made that are influenced by the classic style .

Despite the title and use of comedians as actors , Sundance festival chief programmer Trevor Groth says that the film is not a comedy , but instead `` a provocation , a critique of a culture based at its core around irony and sarcasm and about ultimately how hollow that is . ''   The first ten minutes of the film was purposely leaked onto various torrent websites with an anti-piracy statement at the end of the video . The resulting publicity made the actual film the most pirated independent film of the year .

neg: Versus (film) is a 2000 Japanese independent zombie action film co-written , produced , and directed by Ryuhei Kitamura . The film is set somewhere in the deep forest of Japan , known as the Forest of Resurrection , where an escaped convict simply referred to as `` Prisoner KSC2-303 '' and a gang of Yakuza battle a horde of zombies while at the same time dealing with their sinister leader who wishes to open the forest 's portal of darkness .   Originally intended as a sequel to Kitamura 's Down to Hell , the script surpassed expectations and ultimately evolved into a different film . Though the film was not released theatrically worldwide ( except in France ) , Versus managed to gain a cult following after its DVD release . In 2004 , an extended version called Ultimate Versus was released which included 10 minutes of new footage , as well as additional new music , CGI , and a few editing tweaks .   Versus combines elements of multiple genres such as gunplay , martial arts action , chanbara sword fighting , zombie horror , and comedy . Director Kitamura chose this creative decision because he believed Versus could have been his first and last film he 'd ever produce and chose to risk everything by adding film elements that influenced him .   Talk of an American remake and sequel began to circulate in 2008 following the release of Kitamura 's Hollywood directing debut , The Midnight Meat Train . However , no news of the remake or sequel has emerged since 2008 .

neg: Heavy metal lyrics Heavy metal lyrics are the words used in songs by heavy metal music bands , groups and artists . Given that there are many genres of heavy metal , it is difficult to make generalizations about the lyrics and lyrical themes . In 1989 , two metal scholars wrote that heavy metal lyrics concentrate `` on dark and depressing subject matter to an extent hitherto unprecedented '' in any form of popular music . Jeffrey Arnett states that metal songs are `` overwhelmingly dominated '' by `` ugly and unhappy '' themes which express `` no hope '' for the future . Deena Weinstein has proposed one way to analyze metal song themes is loosely grouping them into two categories : the Dionysian theme ( a reference to the Roman God of wine ) , which celebrates `` sex , drugs and rock and roll '' , partying , and enjoyment of life and the Chaotic theme , which involves dark subjects such as Hell , injustice , mayhem , carnage and death . Not all metal genres fall into Weinstein 's two theme model ; for example power metal 's lyrical themes often focus on fantasy and mythology , camaraderie and hope , personal struggles and emotions , among other themes . Another exception is pop metal bands , which replaced `` gloom and doom '' themes with `` positive , upbeat '' songs about romantic love and relationships , part of their goal of appealing more to female listeners . In metal overall , the small number of metal songs about relationships are typically about unions that have `` gone sour '' long ago .   The thematic content of heavy metal lyrics has long been a target of criticism . According to Jon Pareles , `` Heavy metal 's main subject matter is simple and virtually universal . With grunts , moans and subliterary lyrics , it celebrates ... a party without limits ... -LSB- T -RSB- he bulk of the music is stylized and formulaic . '' Music critics have often deemed metal lyrics juvenile and banal , and others have objected to what they see as advocacy of misogyny and the occult . During the 1980s , the Parents Music Resource Center ( PMRC ) petitioned the U.S. Congress to regulate the popular music industry due to what the group asserted were objectionable lyrics , particularly those in heavy metal songs . The PMRC used music professor Joe Stuessy to testify against metal . Professor Stuessy alleged that heavy metal songs focus on violence , substance abuse , perversion , S&M , and Satanism . Robert Walser analyzed 88 metal songs ' themes to determine if Professor Stuessy 's claims were valid . In Walser 's analysis , the dominant theme in the metal songs was `` longing for intensity '' ; he found that the negative themes described by Stuessy and the PMRC were uncommon . Jeffrey Arnett analysed the lyrics from 115 metal songs : he found that the top three messages were `` grim ... themes '' about violence , angst and protest .   Metal artists have had to defend their lyrics in front of the U.S. Senate and in courtrooms . In 1985 , Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider was asked to defend his song Under the Blade at a U.S. Senate hearing . In 1986 , Ozzy Osbourne was sued because of the lyrics of his song Suicide Solution . In 1990 , Judas Priest was sued in American court by the parents of two young men who had shot themselves five years earlier , allegedly after hearing the subliminal statement `` do it '' in a Priest song . While the case attracted a great deal of media attention , it was ultimately dismissed . In some predominantly Muslim countries , heavy metal has been officially denounced as a threat to traditional values . In countries such as Morocco , Egypt , Lebanon , and Malaysia , there have been incidents of heavy metal musicians and fans being arrested and incarcerated .

neg: Les Liaisons dangereuses Les Liaisons dangereuses ( -LSB- le ljɛ.zɔ̃ dɑ̃.ʒə.ʁøz -RSB- ; Dangerous Liaisons ) is a French epistolary novel by Pierre Choderlos de Laclos , first published in four volumes by Durand Neveu from March 23 , 1782 .   It is the story of the Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont , two rivals ( and ex-lovers ) who use seduction as a weapon to humiliate and degrade others , all the while enjoying their cruel games and boasting about their manipulative talents . It has been claimed to depict the decadence of the French aristocracy shortly before the French Revolution , thereby exposing the perversions of the so-called Ancien Régime . However , it has also been described as an amoral story .   As an epistolary novel , the book is composed entirely of letters written by the various characters to each other . In particular , the letters between Valmont and the Marquise drive the plot , with those of their victims and other characters serving as contrasting figures to give the story its depth .   It is often claimed to be the source of the saying `` Revenge is a dish best served cold '' , a paraphrased translation of `` La vengeance est un plat qui se mange froid '' ( more literally , `` Revenge is a dish that is eaten cold '' ) . However , the expression does not actually occur in the original novel in any form .

neg: Character (arts) A character ( sometimes known as a fictional character ) is a person or other being in a narrative work of art ( such as a novel , play , television series , or film ) . The character may be entirely fictional or based on a real-life person , in which case the distinction of a `` fictional '' versus `` real '' character may be made . Derived from the ancient Greek word χαρακτήρ , the English word dates from the Restoration , although it became widely used after its appearance in Tom Jones in 1749 . From this , the sense of `` a part played by an actor '' developed . Character , particularly when enacted by an actor in the theatre or cinema , involves `` the illusion of being a human person . '' In literature , characters guide readers through their stories , helping them to understand plots and ponder themes . Since the end of the 18th century , the phrase `` in character '' has been used to describe an effective impersonation by an actor . Since the 19th century , the art of creating characters , as practiced by actors or writers , has been called characterisation .   A character who stands as a representative of a particular class or group of people is known as a type . Types include both stock characters and those that are more fully individualised . The characters in Henrik Ibsen 's Hedda Gabler ( 1891 ) and August Strindberg 's Miss Julie ( 1888 ) , for example , are representative of specific positions in the social relations of class and gender , such that the conflicts between the characters reveal ideological conflicts .   The study of a character requires an analysis of its relations with all of the other characters in the work . The individual status of a character is defined through the network of oppositions ( proairetic , pragmatic , linguistic , proxemic ) that it forms with the other characters . The relation between characters and the action of the story shifts historically , often miming shifts in society and its ideas about human individuality , self-determination , and the social order .

neg: Teen drama A teen drama is a genre or type of drama series with a major focus on teenage and young adult characters . It came into prominence in the early 1990s , especially with the popularity of the Fox series Beverly Hills , 90210 . After 90210 became a success , television writers and producers realized the potential for this new genre to reach out to a previously ignored demographic . In the past , most series that maintained a focus on teenagers had been sitcoms , while adolescents in drama series were usually part of a larger ensemble that included adults and children .   More often than not , teen dramas have soap opera elements , incorporating one or more ongoing story arcs spanning several episodes . The young characters must deal with the dramatic ups and downs of their friendships and romances while facing an array of issues thought to be typical of adolescence . There have also been many successful teen-based series with major science fiction , fantasy and action/adventure themes .
