Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years,particularly among young people.The wireless industry’s trade association,CTIA,estimates more than 48 billion text messages are sent each month. The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act,a 2006 federal law that requires improvement to the nation’s emergency alert system.The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming up with new ways to alert the public about emergencies. “The ability to deliver accurate and timely warnings and alerts through cell phones and other mobile services is an important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to take action to protect themselves and their families before,and during,disasters and other emergencies, FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan. Participation in the alert system by carriers-telecommunications companies-is voluntary,but it has received solid support from the wireless industry. The program would be optional for cell phone users.They also may not be charged for receiving alerts. There would be three different types of messages,according to the rules. The first would be a national alert from the president,likely involving a terrorist attack or natural disaster.The second would involve “approaching threats ,which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings.The third would be reserved for child abduction emergencies,or so-called Amber Alerts. The service could be in place by 2010. 【查看更多】

     

    题目列表(包括答案和解析)

    Young adult filmmakers all hope to show their works in international festivals like Sundance and Toronto. But what about really young filmmakers who aren’t in film school yet and aren’t, strictly speaking, even adults?
    They are at the heart of Wingspan Arts Kids Films Festival, tomorrow, in a setting any director might envy: Lincoln Center. Complete with “red carpet” interviews and various awards, the festival has much in common with events for more experienced moviemakers, except for the age of the participants: about 8 to 18.
    “What’s really exciting is that it’s film for kids by kids,” said Cori Gardner, managing director of Wingspan Arts, a nonprofit organization offering youth arts programs in the New York area. This year the festival will include films not only from Wingspan but also from other city organizations and one from a middle school in Arlington, Virginia. “We want to make this a national event,” Ms. Gardner added.
    The nine shorts to be shown range from a Claymation biography of B.B. King to a science fiction adventure set in the year 3005. “A lot of the material is really mature,” Ms. Gardner said, talking about films by the New York City branch of Global Action Project, a media arts and leadership-training group. “The Choice is about the history of a family and Master Anti-Smoker is about the dangers of secondhand smoke.” Dream of the Invisibles describes young immigrants’ feelings of both belonging and not belonging in their adopted country.
    The festival will end with an open reception at which other films will be shown. These include a music video and full-length film whose title is Pressures.
