After a while, you feel like you’ve seen everything you’re going to see and done everything in the tourist handbook. But if you plan ahead and go out of your way to break your St. Augustine routine, you’ll fi nd there’s more to this old town. Actively seek out what you’ve missed. Take a look at one of the colorful maps they have everywhere in the historic district of St. Augustine. Grab a pen and start circling anything you haven’t done, and then decide if it’s worth doing. There just may be a pleasantly cheesy tour you haven’t taken (a scenic cruise from the Bridge of Lions or the famed Old City Helicopter Tour), an activity you haven’t tried (parasailing) or a museum you haven’t visited (Zorayda Castle).

  • Invincible Jumpchain- Compliant CYOA
    Invincible Jumpchain- Compliant CYOA By Lord Statera ​ Introduction Welcome to Invincible. Set in the Image comic book multiverse, this setting is home to older heroes and villains like Spawn, The Darkness, and The Witchblade. This story, however, focuses on the new superhero Invincible (Mark Grayson), the half-breed Viltrumite-Human hybrid and son of the world famous hero Omni-Man (Nolan Grayson). Invincible spends the beginning of his career working alongside the Teen Team, and with his father, to defend not only Baltimore but the Earth from many and varied threats. Little does he know that his father, rather than being an alien from a peace loving species, is actually a harbinger of war to the planet Earth. Viltrumites are actually a race bent on conquering the universe, one planet at a time. And with their level of power, not much can stop them. Fortunately, there is one secret the Viltrumite Empire has been hiding. Over 99% of the Viltrumite population had been wiped out using a plague genetically engineered by scientists of the Coalition of Planets, they are forced to wage a proxy war using their servant races against the Coalition, all the while sending individual Viltrumites out to take one world at a time, in their attempt to conquer the stars. As humans are the closest genetic match for the Viltrumite race outside of another Viltrumite, the remnants of this mighty alien race turn their sights on Earth in the hopes of using it as a breeding farm to repopulate their race. To help you survive in this universe, here are 1000 Choice Points.

  • ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ Star Chris Bukowski on Celebrity Romance with Elise Mosca: Dates Were “Spec
    ‘Bachelor In Paradise’ Star Chris Bukowski on Celebrity Romance with Elise Mosca: Dates Were “Spectacular” Interview by Whitney Johnson. Written by Sarah Batcheller and Shannon Seibert. Bartlett, Illinois native Chris Bukowski was the fourth runner-up on Emily Maynard’s season ofThe Bachelorette and was seen as a main competitor on season 3 of the Bachelor Pad. Since his initial reality TV appearance, he has molded himself into quite the entrepreneur as the owner of The Bracket Room, a sports bar and lounge in Arlington, Virginia. Earlier this summer though, Bukowski put his business on the back burner and returned to the small screen with the hope of finding a celebrity romance on Bachelor in Paradise (fourth time’s a charm, right?). Chris Bukowski on Looking for Relationship and Love on Reality TV Related Link: ‘Bachelorette’ Star Marcus Grodd Is Engaged to ‘Bachelor in Paradise’ Costar He recently created quite a media frenzy when he “crashed” the premiere episode of Andi Dorfman’s season of The Bachelorette. We saw on the Men Tell All episode that host Chris Harrison wouldn’t let Bukowski come to the stage and meet her. “I was totally thrown off-guard when Chris said something to me — I wasn’t miked or anything. He kind of bombarded me!” he shares in our exclusive celebrity interview. Still, he says that final pick Josh Murray “seems like a good guy for Andi.” When he got the call for Bachelor in Paradise, it was no surprise that he was open to the experience. “The producers approached me about it, and I figured, ‘Why not?’ I was able to take time off from the restaurant, so it worked out really well in that sense.

  • Playing Bachelor: Playboy's 1950S and 1960S Remasculinization
    Playing Bachelor: Playboy’s 1950s and 1960s Remasculinization Campaign A Research Paper Prepared By Alison Helget Presented To Professor Marquess In Partial Fulfillment for Historical Methods 379 November 06, 2019 2 Robert L. Green’s 1960 article “The Contemporary Look in Campus Classics”, adheres to manifestation of the ‘swinging bachelor’ and his movement into professionalism. A college student’s passage from a fraternal environment of higher education to the business world demands an attitude and clothing makeover. Playboy presents the ideal man employers plan to hire. However, a prideful yet optimistic bravado exemplifies these applicants otherwise unattainable without the magazine’s supervision. Presented with a new manliness, American males exhibited a wider range of talents and sensitivity towards previously feminine topics. In accordance with a stylistic, post-schoolboy decadence, the fifties and sixties questioned gender appropriation, especially the hostile restrictions of the average man.1 Masculinity shapes one’s interactions, responding to global events as an agency of social relationships. Answering the call of World War II, men rushed to the service of nationalism. The homecoming from Europe forced the transition from aggressiveness to domestic tranquility, contradicting the macho training American soldiers endured. James Gilbert explores the stereotypes imposed upon middle-class men as they evolved alongside urbanity and the alterations of manliness apparent in the public sector. However, the Cold War threatened the livelihoods of men and their patriarchal hierarchy as the exploration of gender just emerged. In Homeward Bound: American Families in the Cold War Era, Elaine Tyler May notes the emphasis on family security amidst heightened criticism and modification, clearly noting masculinity’s struggle with the intervention of femininity and socio-economic restructuring.

  • Reality TV Personality Chris Harrison Partners with Seagram's Escapes: New Flavor Seagram's Escapes Tropical Rosé to Hit Sh
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Cheryl McLean 323-512-3822 [email protected] Reality TV Personality Chris Harrison Partners with Seagram’s Escapes: New Flavor Seagram’s Escapes Tropical Rosé to Hit Shelves this February Rochester, NY – One of reality TV’s most beloved stars is teaming up with one of America’s ​ favorite alcoholic beverage brands, and they’re a perfect match. Reality TV host and social media giant, Chris Harrison, is expanding into the alcoholic beverage space with a brand-new Seagram’s Escapes flavor: Tropical Rosé. The rosé style drink has just 100 calories, similar to seltzers, but is packed with much more taste and made with natural passion fruit and dragon fruit flavors. Tropical Rosé clocks in at 3.2 percent alcohol-by-volume and will be available nationally in four packs of 12-ounce cans starting in February. Harrison has been fully immersed in what is his first alcohol partnership, working closely with the Seagram’s Escapes team to craft the new drink’s flavor, name and packaging. “Creating Tropical Rosé has been a really hands-on experience for me,” said Harrison. “From the very beginning, I traveled with the Seagram’s Escapes team to their flavor house in Chicago to pick just the right color and the perfect fruit flavors. After we were happy with the drink, I had the opportunity to choose the name and weigh in on everything from packaging to advertising. I’m proud of Tropical Rosé and can’t wait for everyone to finally taste it.” “We’re thrilled to have had the opportunity to partner with Chris and to share this drink with both our fans and his,” said Lisa Texido, Seagram’s Escapes brand manager.

Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.

  • Growing up with Vertigo: British Writers, Dc, and the Maturation of American Comic Books
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by ScholarWorks @ UVM GROWING UP WITH VERTIGO: BRITISH WRITERS, DC, AND THE MATURATION OF AMERICAN COMIC BOOKS A Thesis Presented by Derek A. Salisbury to The Faculty of the Graduate College of The University of Vermont In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Specializing in History May, 2013 Accepted by the Faculty of the Graduate College, The University of Vermont, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts, specializing in History. Thesis Examination Committee: ______________________________________ Advisor Abigail McGowan, Ph.D ______________________________________ Melanie Gustafson, Ph.D ______________________________________ Chairperson Elizabeth Fenton, Ph.D ______________________________________ Dean, Graduate College Domenico Grasso, Ph.D March 22, 2013 Abstract At just under thirty years the serious academic study of American comic books is relatively young. Over the course of three decades most historians familiar with the medium have recognized that American comics, since becoming a mass-cultural product in 1939, have matured beyond their humble beginnings as a monthly publication for children. However, historians are not yet in agreement as to when the medium became mature. This thesis proposes that the medium’s maturity was cemented between 1985 and 2000, a much later point in time than existing texts postulate. The project involves the analysis of how an American mass medium, in this case the comic book, matured in the last two decades of the twentieth century. The goal is to show the interconnected relationships and factors that facilitated the maturation of the American sequential art, specifically a focus on a group of British writers working at DC Comics and Vertigo, an alternative imprint under the financial control of DC.
