# Queen (slang)

In gay slang, **queen** is a term used to refer to a flamboyant or effeminate gay man. The term can either be pejorative or celebrated as a type of self-identification.

## History

In 1951, Karl Bowman, former president of the American Psychiatric Association, described patients who were called *queens*, in a report to the California State Legislature:

> I have records of two males, both of whom have asked for complete castration, including amputation of the penis, construction of an artificial vagina, and the administration of female sex hormones. \[...\] Male homosexuals of this type are called "Queens" and seem to differ markedly from the main group of homosexuals who are more nearly like the average man.

Such individuals in the 20th century would later be commonly termed transsexuals.

### Drag queen

A **drag queen** is a person, usually male, who uses drag clothing and makeup to imitate and often exaggerate female gender signifiers and gender roles for entertainment purposes. Historically, most drag queens have been men dressing as women. In modern times, drag queens are associated with gay men and gay culture, but they can be of any gender and sexual identity.

People partake in the activity of *doing drag* for reasons ranging from self-expression to mainstream performance or to simply have fun. Drag shows frequently include lip-syncing, live singing, and dancing. They occur at events like gay pride parades and drag pageants and in venues such as cabarets and nightclubs. Drag queens vary by type, culture, and dedication, from professionals who star in films to people who do drag only occasionally.

Generally, drag queens dress in a female gender role, often exaggerating certain characteristics for comic, dramatic or satirical effect. Other drag performers include drag kings, who are women who perform in male roles, faux queens, who are women who dress in an exaggerated style to emulate drag queens and faux kings, who are men who dress to impersonate drag kings. A *bedroom queen* is a drag queen who mainly does their drag at home in the bedroom rather than publicly.

The term *drag queen* usually refers to people who dress in drag for the purpose of performing, whether singing or lip-synching, dancing, participating in events such as gay pride parades, drag pageants, or at venues such as cabarets and discotheques. Alongside traditional drag work such as shows and performances, many drag queens engage in 'mix-and-mingle' or hosting work at night clubs or at private parties/events. Drag is a part of Western gay culture; it is often noted that the Stonewall riots on June 27, 1969 in New York City were inspired and led by drag queens and, in part for this reason, drag queens remain a tradition at pride events. Prominent drag queens in the gay community of a city often serve as official or unofficial spokespersons, hosts or emcees, fund-raisers, chroniclers and community leaders.

### Rice queen

A *rice queen* is a gay male, usually white, who prefers or exclusively dates East Asian men. The term is considered gay slang and, depending on the context, may be considered derogatory and offensive internationally.

*Sticky rice* refers to East Asian men who prefer other East Asian men, likewise to the term *rice king*, which is used to describe males who seek Asian women.

*Yellow fever* denotes the attraction certain non-Asian individuals may have for Asian men or women.

### Bean queen

*Bean queen* or *rice and bean queen* are terms used in the English-speaking gay community to refer to a gay male, usually white, who is primarily attracted to Hispanic and Latino males. One source describes these as "Gay men who are attracted to gentlemen of the Latino flava."

The term is probably derived from the better-established term "rice queen", substituting the rice that forms the basis of the Asian diet with the beans or rice and beans popular throughout Central America, South America and the Caribbean. Other food-based variations such as *taco queen*, *salsa queen* and so on are heard occasionally.

*Refried beans* refers to Hispanic and Latino men who prefer other Hispanic and Latino men.

Much less frequently, these terms are used to describe gay Latino males themselves.

### Mitten queen

One who prefers to masturbate partners.

### Fire queen

One who likes to burn partners with cigarettes and/or vice versa.

### Size queen

A *size queen* is a gay male who prefers, or exclusively dates or has sex with men who have large penises or a large build.

### Gym queen

*Gym queen* refers to gay men who are into bodybuilding and working out either to bulk up and may include steroid use or those looking for a more lithe physique. Although body building and male physique magazines were popular before the 1970s, the Castro clone look  workboots, jeans, tight white T-shirt, shorter well-kept hair, and a well-muscled physique  became widely known and emulated in the 1970s and 1980s, replacing the hippie artistic constructs and fashions.

### Show queen

According to Charles Isherwood in *The New York Times*, "Show queen is, of course, the technical term for a person, of either gender and any sexual orientation, who is inordinately fond of Broadway musicals." Although a "reviled" gay stereotype in the past, many LGBT activists influenced by queer politics have sought to reclaim the stereotype in a positive way.

## In literature

An early example of this usage of the word "queen" in modern mainstream literature occurs in the 1933 novel *The Young and the Evil* by Charles Henri Ford and Parker Tyler: "While waiting Karel wet his hair and put his handkerchief smeared with mascara behind a pipe. You still look like a queen Frederick said..."

## In music

"Artificial Energy", the opening track from The Byrds' 1968 album *The Notorious Byrd Brothers* is an upbeat song about the effects of amphetamine use, but the lyrics take an unexpected dark turn at the end when the narrator reveals that he's landed "in jail 'cause \[he\] killed a queen."

The Pink Floyd song from 1979 album *The Wall*, "Waiting for the Worms", contains the line "Waiting, for the queens and the coons and the reds and the Jews". The Kinks song from 1970, "Top of the Pops", contains the line "I've been invited to a dinner with a prominent queen..." and may be one of the earliest recorded examples of this usage. Their 1966 song "Little Miss Queen of Darkness" may be an even earlier reference, though more ambiguous in its possible description of a drag queen "accidentally met" in a discotheque, whose "false eyelashes/ were not much of a disguise..." and who was "not all that it might seem..."

The name of famous British rock group, Queen, can be seen as a reference to LGBT slang. According to singer Freddie Mercury, he "was certainly aware of the gay connotations" when suggesting the name, although, as he admitted, "that was just one facet of it".

# Quadrics (company)

**Quadrics** was a supercomputer company formed in 1996 as a joint venture between Alenia Spazio and the technical team from Meiko Scientific. They produced hardware and software for clustering commodity computer systems into massively parallel systems. Their highpoint was in June 2003 when six out of the ten fastest supercomputers in the world were based on Quadrics' interconnect. They officially closed on June 29, 2009.

## Company history

The Quadrics name was first used in 1993 for a commercialized version of the APE100 SIMD parallel computer produced by Alenia Spazio and originally developed by INFN, the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics. In 1996, a new Alenia subsidiary, Quadrics Supercomputers World (QSW) was formed, based in Bristol, UK and Rome, Italy, inheriting the Quadrics SIMD product line and the Meiko CS-2 massively parallel supercomputer architecture. In 2002 the company name was shortened to be simply Quadrics.

Initially, the new company focussed on the development potential of the CS-2's processor interconnect technology. Their first design was the **Elan2** network ASIC, intended for use with the UltraSPARC CPU, attached to it using the Ultra Port Architecture (UPA) system bus. Plans to introduce the Elan2 were later dropped, and a new **Elan3** hosted on PCI introduced instead. By the time of its release Elan3 had been re-aimed at the Alpha/PCI market instead, after Quadrics had formed a relationship with Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC).

The combination of Quadrics and Alpha 21264 (EV6) microprocessors proved very successful, and Digital/Compaq rapidly became one of the world's largest suppliers of supercomputers. This culminated with the building the largest machine in the US, the 20 TFLOP ASCI Q, installed at Los Alamos National Laboratory during 2002 and 2003. The machine consisted of 2,048 AlphaServer SC nodes (which are based on AlphaServer ES45), each with four 1.25 GHz Alpha 21264A (EV67) microprocessors and two rails of the Quadrics QsNet network. Unfortunately this system failed in reliability and was never put into production use.

Quadrics also had success in selling Linux based systems. Quadrics' first Linux based system was installed in June/July 2001 at SHARCNET. It was the fastest civilian system in Canada at the time of installation. Another high-profile Quadrics system was the fastest Linux cluster in the world called **Thunder** installed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in 2003/2004. Thunder consisted of 1024 Intel Tiger Quad Itanium II Processor servers to deliver 19.94 teraflops on parallel Linpack. Peak performance of the system was 22.9 teraflops, at a level of efficiency of 87%.

In 2004, Quadrics was selected by Bull for what was the fastest supercomputer in Europe: TERA-10 at the French CEA: 544 Bull NovaScale 6160 computing nodes, each including eight Itanium 2 processors. The global configuration will feature 8,704 processors with 27 terabytes of core memory. Each of these computing nodes will contain multiple Quadrics QsNetII (Elan4) network adapters to deliver over 60 teraflops (sixty thousands billions of operations per second).

Quadrics was selected by HP for the upgrade of SHARCNET, the Canadian Cluster of Clusters, with four new high-performance computing clusters that would increase the network's capacity from 1,000 to 6,000 processors. QsNetII was used for one capacity and one capability cluster.

In August 2005 Quadrics and STMicroelectronics signed a development agreement. The cooperation was to cover the design of a future generations of Quadrics high speed multi gigabit interconnect, and the exploitation of the products in a range of high volume applications. This co-operation never bore fruit despite the secondment of STMicroelectronics Bristol based staff to Quadrics.

The decision to close the company was made in April 2009, despite the next-generation QsNetIII product being very close to completion. Support for older products and the IP rights were transferred to Vega UK Ltd (now Telespazio VEGA ), and the Quadrics offices were closed on June 29, 2009. Many of Quadrics' technical staff have since found similar employment in developing HPC networking products with Gnodal, one of the many fabless semiconductor companies based in Bristol in the UK.

## Quadrics products

### Hardware

* Quadrics QsNetI \- HPC interconnect based on the *elan3/elite3* ASICs (350 MB/s @ 5 us MPI latency)
* Quadrics QsNetII \- HPC interconnect based on the *elan4/elite4* ASICs (912 MB/s on SR1400 EM64T and 1.26 us MPI latency on HP DL145G2)
* QsTenG - 10 Gigabit Ethernet switches, from 24-port (1U) to very large switches.
* QsNet III - HPC interconnect based on the *elan5/elite5* ASICs (approximately 2 GB/s each direction and 1.3 us MPI latency). This is the first product from Quadrics that is compatible with a standard - in this case 10 Gbit Ethernet.

#### QsNet

**QsNet** was a high speed interconnect designed by Quadrics used in high-performance computing computer clusters, particularly Linux Beowulf clusters. Although it can be used with TCP/IP; like SCI, Myrinet and InfiniBand it is usually used with a communication API such as Message Passing Interface (MPI) or SHMEM called from a parallel program.

The interconnect consists of a PCI card in each compute node and one or more dedicated switch chassis. These are connected with a copper cables. Within the switch chassis are a number of line cards that carry *Elite* switch ASICs. These are internally linked to form a fat tree topology. Like other interconnects such as Myrinet very large systems can be built by using multiple switch chassis arranged as spine (top-level) and leaf (node-level) switches. Such systems were called "federated networks".

It was announced in 1998 and used PCI 66-64 cards that had 'elan3' Custom ASIC on them. These gave an MPI bandwidth of around 350 MB/s unidirectional with 5 us latency.

#### QsNet II

**QsNet II** was the fourth and penultimate generation of Quadrics interconnect family products, and was launched in 2003. QsNetII interfaced to the host computer through the standard IO PCI-X bus. Later versions of the card had PCIe physical interfaces although this was bridged on the card to PCI-X with a performance penalty. A native PCIe version was never developed. Instead resource was focused on QsNetII's successor QsNetIII which although completed was never released commercially.**.**

The architecture of the network interface has been developed to offload the entire task of interprocessor communication from the main processor, and to avoid the overhead of system calls for user process to user process messaging. QsNetII is designed for use within SMP systems  multiple, concurrent processes can utilise the network interface without any task switching overhead. A I/O processor offloads protocol handling from the main CPU. Local memory on the PCI card provides storage for buffers, translation tables and I/O adapter code. All the PCI bandwidth is available to data communication.

QsNetII's core design is based on two ASICs: Elan4 and Elite4. Elan4 is a communication processor that forms the interface between a high-performance multistage network and a processing node with one or more CPUs. Elite4 is a switching component that can switch eight bidirectional communications links, each of which carrying data in both directions simultaneously at 1.3 GB/s.

Quadrics QsNetII interconnect like its predecessor QsNet uses a 'fat tree' topology, QsNetII scales up to 4096 nodes, each node might have multiple CPUs so that systems of \>10,000 CPUs can be constructed. Multiple, parallel QsNet networks can be employed in a system to maintain the compute to communications ratio where high CPU count SMP nodes are employed. The fat tree topology is resilient with large amounts of redundancy in the higher levels of the switch.

Performance depends on platform used and configuration of the system, QsNetII MPI latency on standard AMD Opteron starts at 1.22 μs; Bandwidth on Intel Xeon Intel 64 is 912 MB/s.

In 2004, Quadrics started releasing small to medium switch stand-alone switch configurations called QsNetII E-Series, these configurations range from the 8 to the 128-way systems.

#### QsTenG

In November 2005, Quadrics announced a new product based on 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GigE), called QsTenG. The first QsTenG switch was an 8U chassis with 12 slots for 10 GigE line cards, making 96 ports in total. Each line card had eight 10 GigE ports that connect using 10GBASE-CX4 connectors. Each line card also had four internal ports that connected the line cards together into a fat tree configuration. Since then, Quadrics brought out a second generation of 10 GigE switches, starting with a compact 1U switch with 24 ports, which comes in two variants, TG201-CA, 24 ports CX4, and TG201-XA, 24 ports in total, 12 XSP and 12 CX4. They were expected to bring out a range of larger switches in 2009, the chassis was planned to be the same as the QsNetIII, the switch to have been called TG215.

Late in 2007, the Quadrics management decided to cancel the QsTenG Ethernet developments and concentrate efforts on the QsNet product line. This caused a group employees to leave and help found Gnodal, to develop large scalable Ethernet systems.

### Software

Software included a cluster resource manager software package called QuadricsRms, and Quadrics Linux Software, core components of the QsNet software release for Linux under the GNU LGPL License

# Questing (horse)

**Questing** (foaled 2009) is a British-bred Thoroughbred filly. After beginning her career in England she was transferred to the United States where she won the Coaching Club American Oaks and Alabama Stakes. In the Eclipse Awards for 2012 she was voted American Champion Three-Year-Old Filly.

## Background

Questing is a bay filly with a small white star bred in the United Kingdom by Sheikh Mohammed's Darley Stud. She was from the first crop of foals sired by the Kentucky Derby runner-up Hard Spun Her dam, the Seeking the Gold mare Chercheuse is a descendant of the champion racehorse and broodmare Vagrancy. Chercheuse was a good racehorse, but below top class, winning five times in France including two Listed races. Questing was originally sent into training with John Gosden at Newmarket, Suffolk.

## Racing career

### 2011: two-year-old season

Questing began her racing career by winning a maiden race over seven furlongs at Newbury Racecourse in June. When moved up in class she finished third in the Group Three Prestige Stakes at Goodwood in August and second in the Group Three Oh So Sharp Stakes at Newmarket in September. She made her US debut in the 2011 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, where she finished fifth behind My Miss Aurelia.

### 2012: three-year-old season

For the 2011 season, Questing was transferred to the United States to be trained by Kiaran McLaughlin. She began racing on grass and finished unplaced in her first two races. In June, she was switched to the dirt for an allowance race at Belmont Park, where she recorded her first win in America. In the following month, she was moved up in class for the Grade I Coaching Club American Oaks over nine furlongs at Saratoga Race Course. Ridden by 19-year-old Irad Ortiz, she took the lead after half a mile, went clear of her rivals, and won by four and a quarter lengths from Zo Impressive and Black-Eyed Susan Stakes winner In Lingerie. In the Alabama Stakes at the same course a month later, she led from the start to beat In Lingerie by nine lengths. In her next race, she was beaten a head when conceding seven pounds to My Miss Aurelia in the Cotillion Stakes at Parx in September. On her final start of the season, Questing struggled from the start of the Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic and was pulled up by Ortiz in the backstretch.

title: R. V. S. Peri Sastri

abstract: Rudrabatla Venkata Surya Peri Sastri was a former Chief Election Commissioner of India and served from 1 January 1986 until his death from cancer on 25 November 1990. The 1989 general elections were held during his tenure. Born at Bhimilipatnam in Andhra Pradesh on 1 February 1929, Peri Sastri obtained a master's degree in English from the Madras Christian College under the University of Madras. Thereafter, he taught at Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh and Raipur, in erstwhile Madhya Pradesh, before enrolling for a BCL degree at the Faculty of Law, University of Delhi. He completed his BCL and L.LM from Delhi and also taught at the university. In 1956-57, he joined the Law Commission of India as a Junior Law Officer and moved thereafter to the Law Ministry, Government of India. He held various positions in the Law ministry, and rose to the post of Secretary to the Government of India in 1978. Peri Sastri was principal legislative draftsman of the Government of India for several years. He drafted several amendments to the Constitution of India and many epochal bills including the Road Corporations of India Act of 1950, The Sugar Development Fund Act, 1982 and Delhi Sales Tax Act, 1975. During Peri Sastri's tenure as Chief Election Commissioner, the Government of India made the first effort to convert the commission into a multi-member body by appointing two election commissioners on the eve of the 1989 General election. This move was widely described as an attempt to curtail the powers of Peri Sastri, who refused to be browbeaten by the Government on the timing or conduct of the election, as described by former Comptroller and Auditor General C G Somiah in his book The Honest Always Stand Alone. During the tenure of Dinesh Goswami as Law Minister in the government of Vishwanath Pratap Singh, Peri Sastri recommended wide-ranging electoral reforms. The voting age was reduced to 18 during his tenure as Chief Election Commissioner. Also, the first steps towards use of Electronic Voting Machines were taken during his term.

title: Queer erasure

This erasure can be found in a number of written and oral texts, including popular and scholarly texts.

# Queer erasure

**Queer erasure** (also known as **LGBTQIA+ erasure**) refers to the tendency to intentionally or unintentionally remove LGBT groups or people from record, or downplay their significance, which includes lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people. This erasure can be found in a number of written and oral texts, including popular and scholarly texts.

## In academia and media

Queer historian Gregory Samantha Rosenthal refers to queer erasure in describing the exclusion of LGBT history from public history that can occur in urban contexts via gentrification. Rosenthal says this results in the "displacement of queer peoples from public view". Cáel Keegan describes the lack of appropriate and realistic representation of queer people, HIV-positive people, and queer people of color as being a type of aesthetic gentrification, where space is being appropriated from queer people's communities where queer people are not given any cultural representation.

Erasure of LGBT people has taken place in medical research and schools as well, such as in the case of AIDS research that does not include lesbian populations. Medicine and academia can be places where visibility is produced or erased, such as the exclusion of gay and bisexual women in HIV discourses and studies or the lack of attention to LGBT identities in dealing with anti-bullying discourse in schools.

## Straightwashing

Straightwashing is a form of queer erasure that refers to the portrayal of LGBT people, fictional characters, or historical figures as heterosexual. It is most prominently seen in works of fiction, whereby characters who were originally portrayed as or intended to be homosexual, bisexual, or asexual are misrepresented as heterosexual.

## Bisexual erasure

Bisexual erasure (or bi erasure), also called bisexual invisibility, is the tendency to ignore, remove, falsify, or re-explain evidence of bisexuality in history, academia, the news media, and other primary sources.

In its most extreme form, bisexual erasure can include the belief that bisexuality itself does not exist. Bisexual erasure may include the assertion all bisexual individuals are in a phase and will soon "choose a side", either heterosexual or homosexual. Another common variant of bisexual erasure involves accepting bisexuality in women while downplaying or rejecting the validity of bisexual identity in men. One belief underlying bisexual erasure is that bisexual individuals are distinctively indecisive. Misrepresentations of bisexual individuals as hypersexual erases the sexual agency of bisexuals, effectively erasing their true identities as well.

Bisexual erasure is often a manifestation of biphobia, although it does not necessarily involve overt antagonism. Erasure frequently results in bisexual-identifying individuals experiencing a variety of adverse social encounters, as they not only have to struggle with finding acceptance within general society but also within the LGBTQ community. Bisexual erasure is a form of stigma and leads to adverse mental health consequences for people who identify as bisexual, or similar, such as pansexual.

## Homosexuality erasure

### Gay erasure

### Lesbian erasure

Lesbian erasure is a form of lesbophobia that involves the tendency to ignore, remove, falsify, or reexplain evidence of lesbian women or relationships in history, academia, the news media, and other primary sources. Lesbian erasure also refers to instances wherein lesbian issues, activism, and identity is deemphasized or ignored within feminist groups or the LGBT community.

## Trans erasure

In 2007, Julia Serano discusses *trans-erasure* in the transfeminist book *Whipping Girl*. Serano says that transgender people are "effectively erased from public awareness" due to the assumption that everyone is cisgender (non-transgender) or that transgender identification is rare. The notion of transgender erasure has been backed up by later studies.

## Aspec and agender erasure

### Aromantic erasure

Aromantic people are often erased due to the societal expectation that everyone prospers with an exclusive romantic relationship, something that Elizabeth Brake has coined as the term *amatonormativity*. Aromantic people face continued pressure and prejudice to conform to the "social norms" and form a permanent romantic relationship such as marriage.

### Asexual erasure

## Intersex erasure

Intersex and transgender individuals are often erased in public health research which conflates sex and gender *(see sex–gender distinction)*. The narrow and inflexible definitions of sex and gender in some countries means some intersex and non-binary people are unable to obtain accurate legal documents or identification, preventing their access to public spaces, jobs, housing, education and basic services. It is only recently that the concept of legal rights for intersex people has been considered, even in LGBTI activist circles. However, there is a growing intersex activist community which campaigns for intersex human rights, and against intersex medical interventions which they see as unnecessary and mistreatment.

abstract: Queer pedagogy (QP) is an academic discipline devoted to exploring the intersection between queer theory and critical pedagogy, which are both grounded in Marxist critical theory. It is also noted for challenging the so-called "compulsory cisheterosexual and normative structures, practices, and curricula" that marginalize or oppress non-heterosexual students and teachers.

# Queer pedagogy

**Queer pedagogy** (**QP**) is an academic discipline devoted to exploring the intersection between queer theory and critical pedagogy, which are both grounded in Marxist critical theory. It is also noted for challenging the so-called "compulsory cisheterosexual and normative structures, practices, and curricula" that marginalize or oppress non-heterosexual students and teachers.

## Practice

QP explores and interrogates the student/teacher relationship, the role of identities in the classroom, the role of eroticism in the teaching process, the nature of disciplines and curriculum, and the connection between the classroom and the broader community with a goal of being both a set of theoretical tools for pedagogical critique / critique of pedagogy and/or a set of practical tools for those doing pedagogical work.

The pedagogy focuses on the crisis of knowledge production that result from epistemological limits and regimes of power. Particularly, the pedagogy operates in a situation where the desire for knowledge is inhibited by the repetition of the heterosexual and queer normalization. One of the ways that these are addressed in this framework is by drawing attention to the unease and uncertainty regarding what one thinks and knows.

## History

According to William Pinar, a curriculum theorist at the University of British Columbia, homosexuality and pedagogy have been linked as far back as the ancient Greeks and Romans. Modern notions of queer theory in education, however, originate around 1981 with Pinar's "Understanding Curriculum as Gender Text," critiquing the way in which machisimo and masculinity plays out in Marxist educational theory. In 1982, Meredith Reiniger wrote about misogyny that had been internalized by her secondary English students. In 1983, James Sears wrote an article entitled "Sexuality: Taking off the Masks" for a journal called *Changing Schools*.

The term "queer pedagogy" itself, however, appears to have originated in 1993 with an article in the *Canadian Journal of Education*. This article was written by two Canadian professors, Mary Bryson (University of British Columbia) and Suzanne de Castell (Simon Fraser University), who were grappling with poststructuralist and essentialist theories of identity in the context of a classroom setting. They present various techniques that they tried, but eventually conclude that the task is both necessary and impossible, concluding: "Queer pedagogy it is indeed, that, after all, in trying to make a difference we seem only able to entrench essentialist boundaries which continue both to define and to divide us."

In 1995, Deborah Britzman wrote an article entitled "Is there a queer pedagogy-- Or, stop reading straight."

In 1998, as part of William Pinar's anthology *Queer Theory in Education*, the challenge of articulating a queer pedagogy was taken up by a doctoral student at York University, Susanne Luhmann. In "Queering/Querying Pedagogy? Or, Pedagogy is a Pretty Queer Thing" (part of a larger anthology on Queer Theory in Education), she asks questions such as, "Is a queer pedagogy about and for queer students or queer teachers? Is a queer pedagogy a question of queer curriculum? Or, is it about teaching methods adequate for queer content? Or, about queer learning and teaching-- and what would that mean? Moreover, is a queer pedagogy to become the house pedagogy of queer studies or is it about the queering of pedagogical theory?" She suggests that an "inquiry into the conditions that make learning possible or prevent learning" through exploration of the teacher/student relationships and "the conditions for understanding, or refusing, knowledge."

In 2002, Tanya Olson (who teaches Developmental English at Vance-Granville Community College) further explored the teacher/student relationship in an article in *Bad Subjects*, an online cultural studies journal. In this article, entitled "TA/TG: The Pedagogy of the Cross-Dressed", Olson compared the experience of being a butch woman and not knowing which restroom and whether one was male or female to use to the experience of being a Teaching Assistant (TA) and not being fully a student or a teacher, drawing on it for inspiration towards creating a new conception of pedagogy. She concludes, "Maybe re-defining TAs in the academy will help stop the sense of masquerade that currently characterizes their work. No matter how much they challenge accepted cultural standards or straddle societal binary divisions, everyone deserves a bathroom they can call home. From there we can create a pedagogy of the cross-dressed."

Building on Lee Edelman's work, including his book with Lauren Berlant, DePauw University professor Derek R. Ford theorizes a queer pedagogy of sinthomostudying in the *Journal of Curriculum & Pedagogy*, which "places us firmly in the gap that is both within and beyond the Symbolic" and "exposes and rejects the possibility of fastening the gap." He clarifies that Edelman's writing on education is actually about the pedagogy of learning, and demonstrates that learning is the pedagogical logic of capitalist futurity. For Ford, such a practice of studying is communist as it provides a break out of what Jodi Dean calls "communicative capitalism."

# R51 (South Africa)

The **R51** is a provincial route in South Africa that connects Bapsfontein with the N3 north of Villiers, via Springs, Nigel and Balfour.

## Route

Detailed Route

### Gauteng

The R51 begins at Bapsfontein, Ekurhuleni, Gauteng at the 4-way intersection with the R25 route and the R50 route (Delmas Road). As Pretoria Road, it heads south-south-west for 10 km up to Petit (east of Kempton Park and north-east of Benoni), where it meets the M44 metropolitan route and continues by way of a left turn to become Geldenhuys Street southwards. After 4 km, the R51 continues by way of a right turn at Aloe Road to become Kingsway Road, bypassing Benoni Farms.

As Kingsway Road, it makes up the western border of Daveyton, separating it from Benoni Farms, before crossing the N12 highway (Johannesburg-eMalahleni Highway). Just after the N12 Crossing (by Kingsway), the R51 is joined by the R29 route from Benoni Central and they are one road southwards for 5 km before splitting in the vicinity of Springs (the R29 becomes 4th Avenue eastwards). By Wright Park, at the eastern terminus of the R554 route, the R51 turns eastwards to bypass the Springs town centre and by Springs Country Club, the R51 turns southwards.

From Springs, the R51 crosses the N17 highway and makes a 20 km journey south to Nigel. From Springs to Nigel, the R51 is followed by and is parallel to the M63 metropolitan route. In Nigel, at the main 4-way junction before the Glenverloch Suburb, the R51 joins the road going east and is cosigned with the R42 route and the R550 route for 2 kilometres, making up the northern border of the Nigel CBD. At the Balfour Road junction, the R51 and the R550 split from the R42 road to become the road heading south-east. After the Laversburg suburb, just after crossing the Blesbokspruit, the R550 becomes its own road eastwards, leaving Balfour Road with the R51 designation.

### Mpumalanga

From Nigel, the R51 makes a south-south-easterly 33 km journey, crossing into Mpumalanga Province and crossing the Suikerbosrand River, meeting the R548, to Balfour. It enters Balfour southwards as Joubert Street, before turning east, then south at Dyer Street to cross the Balfour Railway southwards. After the Railway crossing, it makes a right turn at Johnny Mokoena Drive and then a left turn to become Joubert Street again.

South of Balfour, the R51 meets the bypassing R23 road (Heidelberg-Standerton Road) at a roundabout. From Balfour, The R51 makes a southward 40 km journey, passing Grootvlei and its power station, making a left turn, to end at the N3 Johannesburg-Durban Highway (In Mpumalanga, just north of the Vaal River, which separates it from the town of Villiers in the Free State Province on the other side). It meets the eastern end of the R54 route from Vereeniging at the same place.

title: Rerun Van Pelt

abstract: Rerun Van Pelt is Linus and Lucy's younger brother in Charles M. Schulz's comic strip Peanuts. Lucy Van Pelt, his sister, disparagingly calls the situation a "rerun" of the birth of her brother Linus, so Linus nicknames the child "Rerun". Despite Lucy's disappointment, she becomes a warm and protective older sister. Rerun was a minor character in the strip when he was introduced in 1972, and in the 1980s he mostly appeared in sequences riding on the back of his mother's bicycle. However, in the late 1990s — the final years of the strip — he became a major presence, as Schulz felt that his main cast was "too old" for some of the themes he wanted to explore. In a 1997 interview in Comics Journal, Schulz admitted, "Lately, Rerun has almost taken over the strip." Rerun made his first appearance in animation in the 1976 special It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown, voiced by Vinnie Dow. He returned in the 1983 special It's an Adventure, Charlie Brown and the 1983–1986 series The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show, voiced by Jason Mendelson, the four-year-old son of producer Bill Mendelson. Rerun was the main character in the 2003 special I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown, with a storyline drawn from the strip's Rerun-heavy final years. He also has an important role in the 2006 special He's a Bully, Charlie Brown.

# Rerun Van Pelt

**Rerun Van Pelt** is Linus and Lucy's younger brother in Charles M. Schulz's comic strip *Peanuts*. Lucy Van Pelt, his sister, disparagingly calls the situation a "rerun" of the birth of her brother Linus, so Linus nicknames the child "Rerun". Despite Lucy's disappointment, she becomes a warm and protective older sister.

Rerun was a minor character in the strip when he was introduced in 1972, and in the 1980s he mostly appeared in sequences riding on the back of his mother's bicycle. However, in the late 1990s — the final years of the strip — he became a major presence, as Schulz felt that his main cast was "too old" for some of the themes he wanted to explore. In a 1997 interview in *Comics Journal*, Schulz admitted, "Lately, Rerun has almost taken over the strip."

Rerun made his first appearance in animation in the 1976 special *It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown*, voiced by Vinnie Dow. He returned in the 1983 special *It's an Adventure, Charlie Brown* and the 1983–1986 series *The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show*, voiced by Jason Mendelson, the four-year-old son of producer Bill Mendelson. Rerun was the main character in the 2003 special *I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown*, with a storyline drawn from the strip's Rerun-heavy final years. He also has an important role in the 2006 special *He's a Bully, Charlie Brown*.

## Description

Rerun bears a strong physical resemblance to Linus. In appearances from the 1970s and 1980s, Rerun is virtually identical to Linus, though he is smaller, wore a plain T-shirt (it appears that he got many hand-me-downs from Linus, as he wore a long-sleeved shirt with Linus's shirt design), and his hair sprang up. Rerun's appearance evolved in the 1990s, as he aged beyond infancy. Rerun was mostly shown wearing overalls, and his hair was shown as shorter and flatter. While he continued to share Linus' facial features, Rerun's head also grew rounder and larger in proportion to his body. In his early TV appearances, he wears a green or white shirt with black shorts and saddle shoes. In *I Want A Dog For Christmas, Charlie Brown*, he wears an orange striped shirt under light blue overalls.

## Development

Rerun started as a minor character in the *Peanuts* universe, only becoming a main character in the last decade of the comic strip. Rerun was first mentioned in the strip on May 23, 1972, during a storyline in which Lucy throws her younger brother Linus out of the house, only to relent when she learns that yet another little brother had just been born.

Initially, toddler Rerun was shown playing cards with an equally confused Snoopy, and learning to tie his shoes from Lucy.

For many years, Rerun was only seen perched in a seat on the back of his mother's bicycle, wryly commenting on his mother's riding skills and habits. Schulz, a careful observer of ordinary life, was inspired by the sight of young children strapped down for transport. "You look at these little kids hanging on to their elders..." he said, "and you wonder what goes through their minds." Rerun was "a kind of interpreter to those silent thoughts and impressions. The absence of parents and adults in the comic strip means that Rerun must face his trials alone. One critic writes, "Mrs. Van Pelt exposes Rerun to the harsher truths of the outside world. He has to fend for himself in fighting off dogs, handle burdens like her purchases, and deal with setbacks in life, such as potholes. Perhaps she wants to prepare Rerun for the cruelties and failures that Charlie Brown's gang frequently encounters. After all, his older brother, Linus, basically hides under a blanket."

In 1976, Rerun made his first animated appearance in the special *It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown*, in a sequence on the back of his mother's bicycle.

He was rarely used in the 1980s; by that time, Schulz had run out of ideas about how to use him. "Rerun is still around," Schulz said in a 1984 interview promoting *It's Flashbeagle, Charlie Brown*. "He rides on the back of his mom's bicycle now and then, and we're going to use him on some of the Saturday morning television shows but I just... run out of ideas on certain subjects, and lately I haven't been able to think of anything where he is on the back of his mom's bicycle. But he's still around."

In the 1990s, Schulz began using Rerun as an opportunity to explore the grandparent/grandchild relationship. Rerun attends his first day of school on September 11, 1996, having spent the previous week hiding under the bed. Rerun ages to 5 years old at this point, still younger than most of the strip's other characters. In a 1997 interview, Schulz said, "We had a few grandchildren who had to start preschool and kindergarten, and I see little kids at the arena, too. I began to get some ideas and so he was the perfect one to have start kindergarten. He's different from Lucy and Linus. He's a little more outspoken. And I think he's going to be a little on the strange side... \[laughs\] the way he is already. I just had him expelled from school for another day recently, just because he spoke up... He's perfect for that. The other kids are too old for this, really."

One of Rerun's major concerns at this time is his desire for a dog; he sees Snoopy as an ideal companion, but the dog has no particular regard for him.

Rerun's real name is never revealed. In the September 11, 1996 strip when he first starts school, it is suggested that even he himself doesn't know what it is—he tells his (off-screen) teacher "Yes ma'am, my name is 'Rerun'...I don't know...That's what they all call me."

In the final years of the strip — also the final years of Schulz's life — Schulz used Rerun as a way to express his ambivalence about his own talents and limitations. In a sequence in January 1999, the *Peanuts* characters visit an art museum. In one single-panel wordless strip, the other children gaze at a large oil painting of a landscape, while Rerun, alone at the far right, looks at a small line drawing of the dog from Patrick McDonnell's comic strip *Mutts*. Despite this symbolic assertion that comic strips are equivalent to other forms of art, the next day's strip finds Rerun back in school, struggling with his own watercolor. "I think I learned something very important," he tells his classmate. "I'll never be Andrew Wyeth." One critic says that "here, Rerun is parroting Schulz's own self-deprecating attitude toward his own medium, comic art."

Ever the enigma, Rerun draws a curtain over *Peanuts'* final installment of the annual ritual of Lucy pulling the football away just as Charlie Brown tries to place-kick it. In the 1999 Sunday strip, Rerun tells Lucy that their mother wants her to come home for lunch, and she leaves him to hold the football. Charlie Brown rushes toward the ball — but the audience never sees whether he successfully kicks it or not. Lucy returns and asks Rerun what happened, and he replies, "You'll never know." As one critic remarks, "Rerun's presence disrupts the repetitive force of the gag," replacing certainty in this climactic strip with "inexhaustible possibility."

## In adaptations

### Television

Rerun's animated debut is in the animated television special *It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown*, and his first major appearance in the strip was adapted in the first produced episode of *The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show*. Rerun only made one other appearance in a television special before 2000, *Happy New Year, Charlie Brown!* from 1986, where his attempts to blow up balloons for the New Year's party ended in failure, as he blew them up as cubes rather than spheres (a scenario adapted from a comic strip story involving Linus from December 1954, when Linus was roughly the same age). Rerun was mentioned, but not seen, in the 1985 special *Snoopy's Getting Married, Charlie Brown* when Charlie Brown informed Snoopy that he could not back out of his wedding, because Rerun had already been chosen as ring-bearer.

Rerun was given a speaking role in the 2002 special *Charlie Brown's Christmas Tales*. He was the main character in the 2003 special *I Want a Dog for Christmas, Charlie Brown*, with a storyline drawn from the strip's Rerun-heavy final years. He also has an important role in the 2006 special *He's a Bully, Charlie Brown*.

He was not seen or mentioned in the 2015 film *The Peanuts Movie*, although a drawing of him can be seen during the credits.

Various actors have voiced the animated Rerun since 1976, including Vinny Dow, Jason Mendelson, Timmy Deters, and Jimmy Bennett.

"**Drowning**" is the first single from Crazy Town's second album, *Darkhorse*, and fifth released single in total. The song was written by Crazy Town and peaked at No. 24 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks and No. 50 in the UK.

## Music video

The music video was directed by The Malloys. It features Crazy Town playing in an industrial area intercut with footage showing a story unfold. A young man befriends a girl at a lookout before she is dragged off by an aggressive male. Later the young man sees the girl at a party, and walks off with her alone. As he kisses her on the cheek, the aggressive male and his friends approach and beat the man whilst the girl protests. Distraught, the young man returns to the party, where he explains what happened to his friends. His friends get in a car and start searching for the attackers, eventually finding them at a restaurant. The attackers flee, and his friends chase them down one by one and beat them. The video ends with the distressed young man repeatedly punching something. When the camera angle changes it is shown that he has been on his knees punching at the ground; his friends are then seen helping him up.

# Resistance (TV series)

***Resistance*** is a French television period drama series in six 52-minute episodes, first broadcast (as ***Résistance***) on TF1 in France in May 2014 and on More4 in the UK in August 2015. It was broadcast and streamed on PBS in the US from January 2020. The mini-series is directed by Miguel Courtois, *David Delrieux* and Alain Goldman.

## Synopsis

The drama is set in German-occupied Paris in 1940 and depicts the lives of students and teachers within the French Resistance in World War II and is loosely based on the activities of the Groupe du musée de l'Homme.

The series, written by Dan Franck, was commissioned to coincide with the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Paris.

*The Guardian* noted that the series has a "great sense of the sludge and the trudge, and depression and rain, the heartache, and the general constant filthy low-level stress of a long sneaking war in which the most precious – the only – currency was trust, given as grudgingly as you would proffer your soul."
