NATURE AND SUMMARY OF THE ACTION 1. This is a securities class action on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the securities of World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. ("WWE" or the "Company") between October 31, 2013, and May 16, 2014, inclusive (the "Class Period"), against WWE and certain of its officers and/or a director for violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") 2. WWE is an integrated media and entertainment company that was founded in Stamford, Connecticut in 1980 and focuses on the wrestling entertainment business worldwide. Today, WWE primarily operates in four core segments: Live and Televised Entertainment, Consumer Products, Digital Media, and WWE Studios. The Company's flagship televised entertainment includes its Monday Night Raw and Friday Night Smackdown properties which air in the United States on Comcast Corporation's USA Network and Syfy Channel, respectively. 3. This matter arises out of false and misleading statements about the WWE's much publicized ability to transform the Company's earnings profile through, among other things, the negotiation of a lucrative new long-term television license deal.

  • LAMORINDA WEEKLY | 'Pitch Perfect 2'
    LAMORINDA WEEKLY | 'Pitch Perfect 2' Published May 20th, 2015 'Pitch Perfect 2' By Derek Zemrak The pitch is in tune in "Pitch Perfect 2"! The Bella's are back in the sequel to the 2012 surprise hit, "Pitch Perfect," which was made on a $17 million production budget and grossed $65 million at the U. S. box office. Moviegoers knew a sequel would be in the works with those results. This time, everyone's favorite a capella group - the Barden University Bellas - must regain their glory after a humiliating wardrobe malfunction by Fat Amy (Rebel Wilson) that was witnessed by the president of the United States while they performed at the prestigious Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts. With nowhere else to turn, the Bellas enter an international competition that no American a cappella group has ever won. The solid ensemble cast from the original Fat Amy (Rebel Wilson) steals the show in movie returns in "Pitch Perfect 2," which includes "Pitch Perfect 2," the follow-up to 2012's Oscar nominee Anna Kendrick (Beca), comedian surprise hit. Photo Richard Cartwright Rebel Wilson (Fat Amy), Brittany Snow (Chloe), Ester Dean (Cynthia), Hana Mae Lee (Lily) and Alexis Knapp (Stacie). Beca is a senior at Barden and working as an intern at a record label company when Chloe discovers that Beca is more interested in her career. The Bellas once again must pull it all together and find the "perfect pitch." Two-time Emmy Award nominee Elizabeth Banks ("30 Rock") takes the directing reins and keeps the movie going at a quick, witty pace.

  • Relational Labor and Audience Engagement in the Wwe
    Selected Papers of #AoIR2020: The 21st Annual Conference of the Association of Internet Researchers Virtual Event / 27-31 October 2020 IN THE RING AND ONLINE: RELATIONAL LABOR AND AUDIENCE ENGAGEMENT IN THE WWE Jessa Lingel University of Pennsylvania Introduction Professional wrestling has long been of interest to cultural and media theorists (Barthes, 2015; Canella, 2016; Olson, 2018). Long before reality TV, the performativity and scripted drama of professional wrestling allowed theorists to unpack questions of fictionality and narrative authenticity. In the context of internet studies, professional wrestling raises additional questions: How do performers use social media to maintain relationships with fans? How do gender norms manifest in on-stage versus online performances of professional identity? In this extended abstract, I present key concepts and guiding research questions for an investigation of fan culture and gender norms. I then provide a brief overview of related work and describe my mixed-methods approach. As this research project is ongoing, I present preliminary findings and implications as a concluding section. Key frameworks and concepts: Relational labor and kayfabe Following Baym’s (2018) work on how musicians maintain relationships with their fans, I use the concept of relational labor to describe the work that professional wrestlers do to connect with their audience through social media. Relational labor refers to the “ongoing, interactive, affective, material and cognitive work of communicating with people over time to create structures that can support continued work” (p. 19). I use the concept as a framework for analyzing the socio-technical labor conducted by WWE performers on Instagram. I am particularly interested in thinking about how gender shapes the work of relational labor: How do professional wrestlers manage relationships with fans online? What are the gendered constraints and affordances of a platform like Instagram for fan engagement? Suggested Citation (APA): Lingel, J.

The nearly 19-mile road runs from the west side of Grantsville to Rush Valley. Last week, Tooele County filled potholes and worn-out portions of Mormon Trail Road south of South Mountain Road with gravel. This week, a contractor begins regular pothole repairs of Mormon Trail Road north of South Mountain Road, Bitner said. At $2.70 per square-foot of pothole filling, the county has budgeted $50,000 for pothole repair countywide for 2016. The contractor will begin with Mormon Trail Road, but the $50,000 includes work on Erda Way, Burmester Road, and other county roads, according to Rod Thompson, Tooele County Roads Department director. The last major overhaul of Mormon Trail Road was around 25 years ago, he said.

  • CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This Chapter Consists of Background Of
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION This chapter consists of background of research, statement of problem, research objective and significance of research, and definition of key terms. 1.1 Background of Research Women stereotype is a view or assessment given to and through women. This view or assessment becomes identity of women usually as a differentiator to the other group, male. As it said by Beauvoir (24) “And the truth is that anyone can clearly see that humanity is split into two categories of individuals with manifestly different clothes, faces, bodies, smiles, movements, interests, and occupations; these differences are perhaps superficial; perhaps they are destined to disappear. What certain is that for the moment they exist in a strikingly obvious way”. As well as it is differences in identity between men and women then it is also affecting the characteristics and roles of each gender. In women stereotype, as women role, women are not considered to afford and need to interfere related to the community at large. It is because women are considered have only for housework job and role. This is also refers to the stereotype that women do not have the ability as well as men. It influences to the view toward women characteristic. Women are not as useful as men because they are just as a small part in community affairs. This causes unequal role for women. It becomes a barrier for women, particularly in the fields of education, employment and marriage. However a lot of works are done by women in various fields in society. It emerges from the desire to get the same rights as men.
