Abstract

Sporting competition is often compared, metaphorically, to war. Football teams lineup against one another, each desperately seeking to gain control of the line of scrimmage – their "front line." Hockey players brutally attempt to gain control of the puck from the enemy, then as if it were a live grenade, they charge down the ice looking to thrust it into the net. Even tennis players and track stars push their limits in tough competition. If the athletes are portrayed as the combatants, locking horns with their opponents in a grueling test of their physical abilities, then that would make the c

Abstract

The most important thing to understand is that most of the actors who achieve some degree of success do so because there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE IN THE WORLD THAT THEY CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE THEMSELVES DOING. That being said, most must do a lot of "grunt work" type jobs: waiting tables, maid service, temping, or anything else that will pay the bills while allowing themselves flexibility in schedule, so that there's time for auditions, meetings with casting directors and agents, and working on your image. In a way, a career in acting is similar to marketing and sales. A career in TV and film a

Abstract

Do you idolize Stephen King? Are your fantasies filled with scenes of writing the Great American Novel, maybe being revered as the next Steinbeck or Morrison? Would you rather clutch a Pulitzer than an Emmy any day?. Writing has a reputation, deserved or not, for being a dream job. At a party, if someone asks an author what they do for a living, the answer is likely to cause eyes to glaze over and jaws to drop in awe. There is just something about the idea of spending your life serenely turning out exquisitely crafted prose that's appealing. Yet most people haven't a clue what a writer's life

Abstract

Criminal lawyers – also called attorneys – are called upon when the going gets toughest. The most obvious example of a criminal lawyer is the criminal defense attorney made famous by decades of movies, television and crime novels. In the United States, people charged with crimes are guaranteed access to a lawyer by the Constitution. Sometimes they are public defenders, lawyers on the public payroll who have to be ready to defend anybody who needs their services. Other times they are employed by private firms or are solo practitioners and are paid directly by their clients. Criminal prosecutors

Abstract

So you dream of being a pop star? You have something with a lot of sequins picked out to wear when you receive your first Grammy or something a little more outrageous for the MTV awards.

The spotlight lands on you and you play the most incredible solo riff anybody ever heard. You hear your own music on the car

Abstract

Advertising is everywhere. Try to get through a day without seeing a printed advertisement, a television commercial, or a pop-up ad on a web site. Advertising is a dynamic, multi-billion dollar industry that helps us decide what we buy, what places to visit, where we eat, what we drive, and how we look. Advertising ranges from the smallest classified listing in the local paper to the biggest, slickest, all-encompassing campaigns that become part of the popular culture. Do you ever wonder who creates the ads that you see, remember, and talk about?. Someone had to think up the idea, kick it arou
