The Recycler
''The Recycler'' was a newspaper in the US. First published in July 1973, under the name ''E-Z Buy E-Z Sell'' by Canadians Gunter and Nancy Schaldach after they moved to Los Angeles, US. They modeled their paper after a similar publication in Vancouver. It started as a biweekly, mimeographed, 16-page publication. The intention was to sell the paper for 25 cents, but most of the initial 15,000 copies were given away for free. "At the beginning it was kind of a chicken-egg thing," recalled John Dorman, who joined the operation in 1974. "People would buy it to get access to advertising, but there weren't very many ads. But we had to sell papers to get ads." The name was changed to ''The Recycler'' to capitalize on the popularity of recycling in the early 1970s. By 1975, the paper had become profitable, and started being published weekly. The sale of display ads became an important source of revenue, and the company was able to hire its first full-time salesperson. By the 1980s, T'' ...

Cyborg (social Media)
Social media are interactive media technologies that facilitate the creation and sharing of information, ideas, interests, and other forms of expression through virtual communities and networks.

Cyborg Theory
"A Cyborg Manifesto" is an essay written by Donna Haraway and published in 1985 in the '' Socialist Review (US)''. In it, the concept of the cyborg represents a rejection of rigid boundaries, notably those separating "human" from "animal" and "human" from "machine." Haraway writes: "The cyborg does not dream of community on the model of the organic family, this time without the oedipal project. The cyborg would not recognize the Garden of Eden; it is not made of mud and cannot dream of returning to dust." The "Manifesto" criticizes traditional notions of feminism, particularly feminist focuses on identity politics, and encourages instead coalition through affinity. She uses the figure of the cyborg to urge feminists to move beyond the limitations of traditional gender, feminism, and politics; the "Manifesto" is considered a major milestone in the development of feminist posthumanist theory. Major points Haraway begins the "Manifesto" by explaining three boundary breakdowns sinc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pr ...

Cyborg (novel)
''Cyborg'' is a 1972 science fiction/secret agent novel, written by Martin Caidin.

Wells also happens to be a good friend of Austin's, so when OSO chief Oscar Goldman "invite ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
