  • Adding Links to a Web Page
    INTERNET BASICS & BEYOND MRS. WILSON Adding Links To A Web Page Adding Links To A Web Page Introduction What are hyperlinks? A hyperlink is a word, phrase or graphic that when clicked on it sends the reader to a different web page or a section of a web page. It can also send the reader to an e-mail address window. Why are hyperlinks important? Hyperlinks are important because they make web pages unique. They allow readers to navigate web pages in a non-linear fashion. When reading print based material readers can only move through the document in one direction. What are the different kinds of hyperlinks? 1. Relative & Absolute links • Absolute pathnames – Refers to the full URL designation for a file. – <a href=“http://yahoo.com“> • Relative pathnames – Refers to file name construction based on the relationship of the file being linked from to the file being linked to. – <a href="page1.html“> 2. E-mail links E-mail links are different to other types of hyperlink in that they do not lead to a web page. When users click on an e-mail link on a web page, a new window opens up on the screen. This window is an e-mail new message box which allows the reader to send an e-mail directly to the e-mail address that appeared in the e-mail link on the web page and now appears in the ‘To’ field in the new e-mail message box.

Positive publicity can mean increased visibility and ticket sales, and influences the growth of your company in many ways. Most theatre companies, especially in their early stages, cannot afford to hire a professional publicist, but it is not always necessary to do so. It is possible to do a good basic job on your own, since you may, in any case, be able to get just as much press as a professional would. This text is written to guide you in doing just that. This is written specifically as a guide for Off and Off Off Broadway theatres, although the same principles apply to theatres of any tier. If you are a larger-budget organization, you will probably have a separate, trained Public Relations staff, or hire an outside contractor.

  • ROCK of AGES Pk 5 24 12 Domestic
    Under the direction of Adam Shankman (“Hairspray”), New Line Cinema’s feature film adaptation of the smash hit Broadway musical “Rock of Ages” comes to the big screen. “Rock of Ages” tells the story of small town girl Sherrie and city boy Drew, who meet on the Sunset Strip while pursuing their Hollywood dreams.

Blige, with Oscar® nominee Alec Baldwin (“The Cooler,” TV’s “30 Rock”), and Oscar® nominee Tom Cruise (“Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol,” “Magnolia,” “Jerry Maguire”) as Stacee Jaxx. Shankman directs “Rock of Ages” from a screenplay by Justin Theroux and Chris D’Arienzo and Allan Loeb, based on D’Arienzo’s musical of the same name. The film is being produced by Matthew Weaver, Scott Prisand, Carl Levin, Tobey Maguire, Garrett Grant and Jennifer Gibgot, with Toby Emmerich, Richard Brener, Michael Disco, Samuel J.

  • Cirque Dreams: Illumination by Neil Goldberg, Jill Winters & David Scott
    Young Critics Reviews Fall 2010-2011 Cirque Dreams: Illumination By Neil Goldberg, Jill Winters & David Scott At the Hippodrome Theatre through October 17 By Aaron Bell ILLUMINATION SHOWS ITS BRILLIANCE The house lights go down in the historic Hippodrome Theatre. We’re brought into a fast-paced newscast program when we hear the superbly resonant voice of Onyie Nwachukwu, who plays the Reporter. She tells us that another regular day has just begun, and that the daily occurrences in the “Cirque Dreams: Illumination” world will soon be lighting up the stage. Although a tad disturbed by her slightly nasal, high-belting, soulful vocals, one comes to appreciate Nwachukwu’s stylized singing; it completely fits her fun-loving, scoop-seeking reporter essence. One can’t help but appreciate her wonderful articulation and vocal clarity when she serenades us with a fabulously written opening number. This song, “Change,” gives us the main idea of the entire show, “If you don’t like it, change your mind. ” One’s mind is indeed changed by this sparkly production. The many feats of physical excellence and theatrical genius suggest how everyday life would look with an incredibly heightened sense of imagination. Santiago Rojo’s costume design and Betsy Herst’s production design bring that concept to life with their explosively colorful and symbolic wardrobes and sets. One sees cast members dressed as animated street cones, traffic lights and construction items. The set uses neon effects to brighten up the town atmosphere. The characters’ relationships with each other and their environment are interesting elements as well.

  • How American Idol Constructs Celebrity, Collective Identity, and American Discourses
    AMERICAN IDEAL: HOW AMERICAN IDOL CONSTRUCTS CELEBRITY, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, AND AMERICAN DISCOURSES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Amanda Scheiner McClain May, 2010 i © Copyright 2010 by Amanda Scheiner McClain All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a three-pronged study examining American themes, celebrity, and collective identity associated with the television program American Idol. The study includes discourse analyses of the first seven seasons of the program, of the season seven official American Idol message boards, and of the 2002 and 2008 show press coverage. The American themes included a rags-to-riches narrative, archetypes, and celebrity. The discourse-formed archetypes indicate which archetypes people of varied races may inhabit, who may be sexual, and what kinds of sexuality are permitted. On the show emotional exhibitions, archetypal resonance, and talent create a seemingly authentic celebrity while discourse positioning confirms this celebrity. The show also fostered a complication-free national American collective identity through the show discourse, while the online message boards facilitated the formation of two types of collective identities: a large group of American Idol fans and smaller contestant-affiliated fan groups. Finally, the press coverage study found two overtones present in the 2002 coverage, derision and awe, which were absent in the 2008 coverage. The primary reasons for this absence may be reluctance to criticize an immensely popular show and that the American Idol success was no longer surprising by 2008. By 2008, American Idol was so ingrained within American culture that to deride it was to critique America itself.
