JUNE 9-12, 2005 Saugatuck, Mi WATERFRONT FILM FESTIVAL WATERFRseventhONT annual FILM FESTIVAL WAT ERFROJUNE 9-12,NT 2005 FILM FESTIsaugatuck,VAL mi WAT EForRFRONT more information or tickets, call 269.857.8351 or visit waterfrontfilm.org F FROM THE FOUNDERS 4050photo.com Some of you may remember Mrs. Heyser who used to live over on Old Saugatuck Road. She was one of those folks who you’d expect to see in a movie. As sweet as the blueberries she sold, if Hollywood were casting for “a kind old farm mother who would go out of her way to help anyone in need, neighbor or not” she was a dead ringer for the part. And perhaps you might have even heard that brainteaser people used to tell about old Mrs. Heyser selling eggs: A man walked up and said to Mrs. Heyser, “I’ll take half of what you have in your basket plus half an egg.” Mrs. Heyser obliged without breaking any eggs. The second customer likewise said “I’d like half of what you have plus half an egg.” Once again she obliged. The third customer asked for the same amount, “Half of what you have plus half an egg.” Mrs. Heyser smiled and said sweetly, “Then you may take all that I have in my basket.” So what was the least number of eggs Mrs. Heyser had in her basket to begin? And what the heck does all this have to do with the Waterfront Film Festival? Whether you’re good at Algebra or not, we invite you to join us this year in celebration of all of the “Mrs. Heysers” we know and love. Not just for their blueberries and fresh eggs, but because they make this such an amazing place to live and to visit. They are the fabric of this community, and The Waterfront Film Festival wouldn’t be in existence or so incredibly successful without the strength and support of the community, young and old, local and visiting, who make it happen each year. Community is the reason for the hundreds of volunteers who come together to orchestrate what has become one of the most successful, non-profit, volunteer-run film festivals in the world. It is why so many people from around the globe travel to this beautiful town for these 4 days in June. It is why 650 people find themselves sitting in the dark of an old boat shed watching, laughing and crying together. It is why you see fathers and sons helping direct you to parking, mothers and daughters taking your tickets at the doors, husbands and wives selling you popcorn and brothers and sisters helping you find a good seat. While many folks believe that film festivals are just about great films, we believe there is much more to it. The Waterfront Film Festival is also about people. Interesting, curious, smart, funny and creative people. In other words, this is about you. Without you, we wouldn’t be in our seventh year and we wouldn’t be so optimistic about the next seven years. Without you, there would simply be no point. So while Mrs. Heyser may be gone, let’s prove this weekend that her spirit lives on. We invite you to join us and watch some extraordinary films and meet some extraordinary people. We certainly look forward to meeting you, and we promise there won’t be any more math quizzes involved. Enjoy the show!

With modern technology and a passion for an ancient pastime, these hearty souls will drop everything to experience the unexpected - waves. While the rest of the Great Lakes region is packing away its beach chairs a small, diverse and eclectic group of surfers start tuning into the weather. They live and breathe by buoy reports and will drop anything just to surf. Their quest to surf along the wide and far- reaching lake coastlines requires more dedication, cold heartedness and schedule flexibility than any other surf region on the planet.

  • Television Sharknados and Twitter Storms
    Television Sharknados and Twitter Storms: Cult Film Fan Practices in the Age of Social Media Branding Stephen William Hay A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the regulations for the degree of Master of Arts in Media Studies Victoria University of Wellington 2016 Abstract This thesis examines the Syfy channel’s broadcast of the television movie Sharknado and the large number of tweets that were sent about it. Sharknado’s audience engaged in cult film viewing practices that can be understood using paracinema theory. Paracinema engagement with cult films has traditionally taken place in midnight screenings in independent movie theatres and private homes. Syfy’s audience was able to engage in paracinematic activity that included making jokes about Sharknado’s low quality of production and interacting with others who were doing the same through the affordances of Twitter. In an age where branding has become increasingly important, Syfy clearly benefited from all the fan activity around its programming. Critical branding theory argues that the value generated by a business’s brand comes from the labour of consumers. Brand management is mostly about encouraging and managing consumer labour. The online shift of fan practices has created new opportunities for brand managers to subsume the activities of consumers. Cult film audience practices often have an emphasis on creatively and collectively engaging in rituals and activities around a text. These are the precise qualities that brands require from their consumers. Sharknado was produced and marketed by Syfy to invoke the cult film subculture as part of Syfy’s branding strategy.

    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

  • Bridging the Last Mile: an Exploration of Ict Policy Through Bharatnet
    BRIDGING THE LAST MILE: AN EXPLORATION OF ICT POLICY THROUGH BHARATNET Deepti Bharthur A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2015 Committee: Radhika Gajjala, Advisor Shannon Orr Graduate Faculty Representative Oliver Boyd-Barrett Clayton Rosati © 2015 Deepti Bharthur All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Radhika Gajjala, Advisor India is brimming with new optimism about its economic growth potential and ability to enhance its status. Democratic and demographic dividends play a crucial role in its aspiration. As a key IT player with regard to the services and allied sectors its transformation from telecom as a luxury to appreciable levels of teledensity is a narrative in itself. Its tryst with harnessing communication for development integrates the modernization approaches with all the consequent set of problems and issues. The liberal framework in which telecom reforms were initiated have spread the vision of modern handheld communication devices as harbingers of empowerment, entitlement and entertainment. Connectivity and access in the last mile is no doubt a significant variable and required a major policy articulation and push by the government. It was against this reality shared by many other nations that incremental articulations for broadband access in keeping with the vision of creating an information society were made. Through a historical institutional analysis, this study unravels the pattern leading

  • Papa Haydn Soundtracks Live Valentine's Special
    Photographer: Lisa Marie Mazzucco Bella Hristova, violin PAPA HAYDN SOUNDTRACKS LIVE wso.ca I 204-949-3999 VALENTINE’S SPECIAL MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR OF THE WSO BOARD As the New Year begins, let me wish you all a very happy and healthy year. And, a musical year.What better way is there to bring happiness into your life than with music, especially the music of our own, fabulous WSO? I would like to introduce myself as the new President of the Board of Directors.This is my sixth year as a member of the Board and my first as President. Music has always been a part of my life. My tastes are eclectic, ranging from “old-school”rock and roll to folk to jazz and opera, and, of course, classical. Giving back to my community is also something that is important in my life. So, when, I was asked to join the Board of the Symphony, in 2011, I didn’t hesitate.To be chosen, this past September, as President of one of the jewels of Winnipeg’s renowned cultural scene is a great honour. The Board has two principal roles. One is to provide oversight of the management of the Orchestra to ensure that it continues to operate.The fact that, in a few weeks, it will be seventy years since the incorporation of the WSO attests to the success of past and present Boards in this goal.The second responsibility is to play a significant role in ensuring financial stability.The WSO depends on three sources of income: ticket sales, government grants and charitable donations.With much competition for entertainment dollars, there is a limit to the amount to be raised through ticket sales.With so many demands on public resources, the same is true of government funding.

  • Chapter I Introduction
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter presents the introduction of the research. It describes background of the study, previous study, limitation of the study, problem statement, objective of the study, benefit of the study, research method and research paper organization. A. Background of the Study Racism is the doctrine which emphasizes the importance of main characteristic of race which is used as a standard to make interaction between individual or groups (Soekanto, 1985:411). This is the popular problem on the country. There are many kinds of races such as in America. Usually racism is used to differentiate between white and black skins. The white skins are regarded as superior for all races so the black skins get injustice treatment. The black skins do not have the right to any form of opportunities enjoyed by the white skins. Black skins are seen as the pests that try to pollute the purity and superiority of the white skins. It makes black skins live uncomfortable in America. They want to fight against but they are afraid missing out their jobs. One of movie that gives imagery of social lives is The Help . It is one of the most popular racial movies in America. The Help is an American drama film directed by Tate Taylor. The Help movie is released on August 10 th , 2011 on blu-ray disc, DVD, and digital. It represented Jackson in 1960s. The movie is produced by DreamWorks Studios, distributed by Touchstone Pictures, edited by Hughes Winbome, music by Thomas Newman, and cinematography 1 2 by Stephen Goldblatt. The movie is adapted of Kathryn Stockett’s novel (2009) with the same name.
