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.

Dafydd Jones: the Last Hurrah Dafydd Jones: the Last Hurrah 3 Aug–8 Sep 2018
PRINT SALES GALLERY 3 AUG–8 SEP 2018 DAFYDD JONES: THE LAST HURRAH DAFYDD JONES: THE LAST HURRAH 3 AUG–8 SEP 2018 Snoggers, Hammersmtih Palais, London, 1981 British photographer Dafydd Jones (b.1956) has worked as social photographer since the early 1980s, contracted by such publications as Tatler, Vanity Fair, The New York Observer, The Sunday Telegraph, The Times and Independent. After winning a prize in a photography competition run by The Sunday Times magazine in 1981 with a set of pictures of the ‘Bright Young Things’, Jones was hired by Tatler magazine editor Tina Brown to photograph Hunt Balls, society weddings and debutante dances. This exhibition explores Jones’s behind-the-scenes images taken in the years that followed, between 1981-1989, known as ‘The Tatler Years’. “I had access to what felt like a secret world. It was a subject that had been written about and dramatised but I don’t think any photographers had ever tackled before. There was a change going on. Someone described it as a ‘last hurrah’ of the upper classes.” SELECTED PRESS THE GUARDIAN, 8 AUG 2018 I took this shot at Oriel College, Oxford, in 1984. I had heard that whoever won the summer rowing competition would set fire to a boat in celebration. Oriel had won seven years in a row at that point, and I remember there were complaints that it was all getting out of hand. The whole event was slightly mad. After a long, boozy dinner, groups of suited men would run arm-in-arm and jump through the blaze, or dash through the embers in their smart shoes. -

The Best Domains in Life Are Free? Freenom Partners with '.Gq' Equatorial Guinea
The best domains in life are free? Freenom partners with ‘.gq’ Domain names Equatorial Guinea - Hogan Lovells LLP January 19 2015 A number of country-code top-level domain (ccTLD) registries offer domain name registrations free of charge. The most famous example is ‘.tk’, the ccTLD for Tokelau, a small group of Pacific islands located off the coast of New Zealand. This business model of free domain name registrations has enabled ‘.tk’ to become the largest ccTLD in terms of number of domain name registrations under management (with over 27 million registered domain names), and the second largest TLD behind ‘.com’. Boosted by this success, Freenom, the company that operates the ‘.tk’ registry, has also partnered with other ccTLDs, namely Mali (‘.ml’), Gabon (‘.ga’) and the Central African Republic (‘.cf’) in order to operate their ccTLDs on the same model of free domain name registrations. It appears that this business model holds some appeal to certain ccTLD registries, as Freenom has recently partnered with another country, Equatorial Guinea, in order to develop its ccTLD, ‘.gq’. The launch of ‘.gq’ took place on October 1 2014 according to the following schedule: l Sunrise period (giving priority to trademark holders) - October 1 to October 31 2014. l Landrush period - November 1 to November 30 2014. l General availability - from December 1 2014 onwards. There are no restrictions to register under ‘.gq’ and thus anyone can apply for any domain name. Free domain names were available only as from December 1 when general availability started. To be able to register a domain name for free, registrants need to "have a website, homepage or web page online on an existing web address or the capability of setting up [their] own website/server with content". -

Magazines, Blogs and Design…Wiki-Style
THESIS WRITE MY THESIS: MAGAZINES, BLOGS AND DESIGN…WIKI-STYLE Brittany Watson Interior Design In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Art Corcoran College of Art and Design Washington DC Spring 2010 2 Thesis Statement Design blogs and other forms of social media have assumed a more prominent role over the traditional printed magazine in disseminating information, creating a sense of community, encouraging artistic collaboration and identifying new tastes, which is explored in this thesis through author-mediated crowd-sourcing through a blog called Write My Thesis leading to an online magazine, Baker Street. Abstract The day Domino magazine folded in January of 2009, a silence was heard throughout the design community. This marked yet another design magazine that had fallen victim to declining advertisement sales in recent years. Until this point, magazines were at the forefront of identifying design trends and up-and-coming designers, while providing one of the only locations to provide guides of where to find products and how to assemble looks. The rise in social media, including blogs, vlogs, wikis, podcasts, wall postings, and photosharing, has quickly assumed a more prominent role in the wake of printed magazines. Like Wikipedia, this thesis is mass-collaboratively written by the users of the Web 2.0 through crowd-sourcing the content on a wiki site with the author acting as mediator and main contributor. The aim is to discover the benefits of social media versus 3 traditional print and how it affects design. The project describes the qualities that made the magazine successful in its golden age and how they eventually grew outdated as social media became more popular. -
