  1. That is perfect, Mr. Johnson! And I will search for that thread, GWTW. Thanks for all your help! The paper is due tomorrow so I didn't get a chance to do the Lexis search because my uncle was out of the country. Oh well. The information I have is good enough. Thanks a lot, everybody!

  2. I am really sorry if this isn't allowed, for a few reasons. One, I ask this to find information for a paper I am writing. I am not really asking for help with the homework, just help with the sources. Also, it kind of has to do with eating disorders, but not completely. Please delete if it's not allowed. I have looked around a lot and havn't been very successful so I thought I'd give this a shot. So here's the deal. I am writing a paper that has to do with the 'ideal ballerina body' and its kind of an ambiguous topic and I plan to narrow it down as I find information because I wasn't sure what kind of stuff I was going to come across. Right now I wanted to focus on lawsuits similar to the one brought against the Bolshoi Ballet by Anastasia Volochkova. I have some info on that case, and also on one from a few years ago brought against the San Francisco Ballet School by a mother after her daughter got rejected. So I have thoes two, but I don't know the final court rulings on either of them. I also wondered if there have been any similar cases to these two. (basically cases brought against companies about body type etc.) Have any of these cases actually been won by whoever was going against the company? Also (I feel like I am going on forever...sorry!) I wanted to know if there were any classical ballet companies that have really broken the barrier and is hiring dancers outside of the normal body type. By the way, I am trying to present all views without a bias and this post is related specifically to one side of the argument I am presenting, so I am not stating personal views or anything. I am only looking for information! I feel like this is a rather disjointed post, and I apologize!
