Discourse on gender, religion, and culture in Pakistani films: A narrative analysis of contemporary independent films from Pakistan
No full textThis thesis examines the discourse about gender, religion, and culture in four independent films produced in Pakistan between 2000 and 2013 to advocate for women’s empowerment: Silent Water and Good Morning Karachi from female director Sabiha Sumar, and In the Name of God and Speak from male director Shoaib Mansoor. I analyzed plot, characterization, dialogues, and visual images to discuss how the filmmakers represented the dynamics of women’s oppression, struggle against oppressive agents, and options or solutions for women’s empowerment. Further, this project explored the ideological implications of the narratives constructed in the films within the Pakistani society in the post 9/11 context. This historical context is of interest to this
study because during this period Pakistanis have engaged a series of debates and national policies that address women’s rights, religious extremism, and media liberalization in Pakistan. This narrative analysis suggests that the dominant discourse in the films centers on a critique of patriarchy and Islamic fundamentalism as the main overlapping structures of domination affecting women’s status and options. More specifically, the filmmakers construct a representation of women as oppressed primarily by their male relatives (fathers, husbands, sons, cousins). The films advance a critique of patriarchy that intersects with a critical view of religion—as male relatives are represented as agents who, motivated by religious beliefs, repress women—and in particular of certain practices linked to Islamic fundamentalism and other cultural practices, such as forced marriage and honor killings, as inseparable forces. The discourse represents women as active agents struggling against patriarchal culture and religious fundamentalism to end their oppression within their family and society. The options for empowerment privileged in the films are women’s education, to speak out and report to media and the courts the injustices done to them, and to search for their rights within Islam. Filmmaker Mansoor created a discourse that encourages women to seek their rights within Islam and the Pakistani legal system, as his films suggest that the problem is that Islam is misinterpreted by men for the domination of women. Sumar, in contrast, created a discourse that represents women as the victims of men, with little or no choice within the patriarchal culture and conservative society of Pakistan. The ideological implications of these films are divergent. Mansoor’s films have idealistic endings that open room to the possibility of empowerment of women within existing national legal and economic
reforms like the ones undertaken in the post 9/11 context. Sumar’s films have more realistic endings, where women end up victimized, to suggest that there is little space for empowerment within the existing structures and institutions.CommunicationMastersUniversity of New Mexico.

Public meeting materials, Request for Class 3 Permit Modification, Corrective Action Complete, Solid Waste Management Units 8, 58, 68, 149, 154, and 502, Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico, EPA ID Number NM5890110518
No full textSEE LISTThe Department of Energy/National Nuclear Security Administration (DOE/NNSA) and Sandia Corporation (Sandia) submitted a request for a Class 3 Modification to the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Facility Operating Permit (the Permit) for Sandia National Laboratories (SNL). The DOE/NNSA and Sandia are requesting that the New Mexico Environment Department (NMED) designate solid waste management units (SWMUs) 8, 58, 68, 149, 154, and 502 as approved for Corrective Action Complete status.
The DOE/NNSA and Sandia have implemented corrective measures at these 6 SWMUs in accordance with the requirements of an April 2004 Compliance Order on Consent between NMED, DOE, and Sandia, and the plans approved by NMED. The NMED made preliminary determinations in January and February 2016 that corrective action is complete at these SWMUs, which are located on Kirtland Air Force Base immediately southeast of Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Information about these SWMUs was presented in poster format at a meeting on Tuesday, June 21, 2016, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. at Manzano Mesa Multigenerational Center, located at 501 Elizabeth SE in Albuquerque. Posters were available for review, and personnel from SNL were available to answer questions during the entire meeting. Attendees were also able to make written comments during the meeting. All written comments submitted during the meeting will be forwarded to the NMED.
The posters and handouts that were available at the meeting consist of 10 documents that are grouped according to topic

2003 Prescribed Burn Effect on Chihuahuan Desert Grasses and Shrubs at the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge, New Mexico: Grass Recovery Study (2003-2012)

This study actually was undertaken on an area that had prescribed fire applied to 8 of 16 (300 m x 300 m) plots 10 years before in 1993. This previous study had also examined the effects of fencing to exclude the indigenous prong-horn antelope. In the 2003 study the prescribed fire was applied to the northeastern half of the 16 plots while the southwestern plots were intentionally protected. Sampling prior to the prescribed burn included quantification of cover of grass species in quadrats within all of the 16 plots. Measurements were made using "niner" quadrat frames that are 30 cm x 30 cm frames that are divided into 9 1-decimeter squares. Counts of grass species were made just prior to the June 2003 burn. Following the prescribed burn, quadrats were remeasured in the fall of 2003 to quantify mortality of grass species. These measurements were taken through the fall of 201
Student preconceptions of arid, urban watershed management and how experiential learning might contribute to conceptual change.
No full textA Professional Project Proposal submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Water Resources, Water Resources Program, University of New Mexico.Voting-aged, freshman-level university students attending college in urban Southwest US cities are living in what is considered one of the most “climate-challenged” regions of the entire country. Such students may not understand the issues and ways to manage an urban watershed. For instance, the Southwest faces climate change drought predictions and naturally occurring water scarcity. Urban populations continue to climb, pushing up demands on already scarce water resources. Urban watersheds present specific challenges, such as impermeable surfaces. Students need to understand these urban watershed management challenges and climate change stressors. I conducted a study in an introductory environmental science class at an urban, very high research university in the arid Southwest. I used a pre / post design to assess student preconceptions about their urban campus watershed. The post-test was administered following a brief, experiential learning exercise, carried out over two instructional class periods. I developed a coding scheme to analyze the pre- and post-test responses. Results showed that students held both normative and non-normative preconceptions. There was minor growth in students’ conceptual understanding between the pre-test and post-test, and this growth was significant, (t(33) = -2.25, p < .05), with a small to medium effect size, d: -0.393. This finding supports the use of experiential learning as a means to teach students about water resources. Understanding students’ preconceptions of arid, urban watersheds can assist in how to better design curriculum. Improvements in curriculum design can empower students with more accurate knowledge to make better decisions about urban watersheds. This knowledge will help students make more informed voting decisions related to water resources policy for the Southwest
