Yannick Nézet- Séguin, described as the “greatest generator of energy on the international podium,” (Financial Times) has been named the 2016 Artist of the Year, voted on by a panel of his peers. As music director of The Philadelphia Orchestra, the Orchestre Métropolitain, and the Rotterdam Philharmonic, Nézet-Séguin is recognized worldwide as a musical leader of the highest caliber, maintaining his strong sense of musicianship, dedication, and charisma. “I am deeply and sincerely honored to accept this prestigious honor,” said Nézet-Séguin. “In truth, this goes to all of the musicians I conduct, in Philadelphia, Rotterdam, and Montreal, and throughout the world. These are the people creating the magic that connects audiences to the music, spreading messages of hope and joy.” “Yannick is a musician of extraordinary breadth and depth in all facets of music-making,” said Philadelphia Orchestra President and CEO Allison Vulgamore. “From the Baroque to the contemporary, from chamber music to grand opera, his versatility and curiosity extends authentically, through his work onstage and off. He performs in front of millions yet projects an intimacy that connects him on the most genuine level with musicians and audiences alike. -

Rachel Graham. Gender Role Reinforcement in Popular Magazine Advertising. a Master's Paper for the M.S. in L.S. Degree
Rachel Graham. Gender Role Reinforcement in Popular Magazine Advertising. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S. degree. April, 2003. 27 pages. Advisor: Claudia J. Gollop. One month’s issue of five men’s (Details, Esquire, GQ, Maxim, and Stuff) and five women’s (Cosmopolitan, Elle, Glamour, MarieClaire, and Vogue) fashion and leisure magazines were examined for the types of products advertised. If the advertising reflected traditional gender roles, the women’s magazines would advertise products that focus on changing the self, while the men’s magazines would advertise lifestyle- enhancing products. Results showed that both the men’s and the women’s magazines had many pages of clothing and accessories advertising. The women’s magazines did contain more advertising of personal care products, and the men’s magazines contained more advertising of lifestyle products. However, the women’s magazines did contain some lifestyle products advertising, and the men’s magazines also contained some personal care products advertising, so it was not split totally across gender lines. Headings: Advertising, Magazine – United States Men’s magazines Sex role in advertising Women’s periodicals, American GENDER ROLE REINFORCEMENT IN POPULAR MAGAZINE ADVERTISING by Rachel Graham A Master’s paper submitted to the faculty of the School of Information and Library Science of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Library Science. Chapel Hill, North Carolina April, 2003 Approved by: ___________________________ Advisor 2 Introduction Gender roles are created through a complex socialization process. Roles for each sex are reinforced through dress, behavior, and social interaction. -

Recent History of Computers: Machines for Mass Communication Waseda University, SILS, Science, Technology and Society (LE202) The communication revolution ‚ In the first period of the history of computers, we see that almost all development is driven by the needs and the financial backing of large organizations: government, military, space R&D, large corporations. ‚ In the second period, we will notice that the focus is now shifting to small companies, individual programers, hobbyists and mass consumers. ‚ The focus in the first period was on computation and control. In the second period, it is on usability and communication. ‚ A mass market for computers was created, through the development of a user-friendly personal computer.
