Niclas Wahlgren
Melodifestivalen 2006 was the selection for the 46th song to represent Sweden at the Eurovision Song Contest. It was the 45th time that this system of picking a song had been used. Five heats had taken place to select the ten songs for the final, in Leksand, Karlstad, Karlskrona, Gothenburg and a Second Chance round in Stockholm. The final was broadcast on SVT1 and Sveriges Radio's P4 network. Carola Häggkvist was the clear favourite to win the final, with bookmakers making her the favourite and an ''Aftonbladet'' web poll showing her to have a clear margin over the other participants. The rehearsals sold out for the fourth year running; however, Carola was unable to perform in the final rehearsal due to throat problems. This led to speculation that the final would be closer than expected. ''Aftonbladet'' claimed in April 2006 that the televote may have been tampered with, as various sources reported unexplained voting (predominantly for Carola) on their telephone bills. It is cle ...

Through Line
A through line is a connecting theme or plot used in media such as films and books. it is sometimes also called the 'spine', and was first suggested by Konstantin Stanislavski as a simplified way for actors to think about characterization. He believed actors should not only understand what their character was doing, or trying to do, (their objective) in any given unit, but should also strive to understand the through line that linked these objectives together and thus pushed the character forward through the narrative. Through line is increasingly being used in other contexts as substitutes for words like ''thread'', as seen in the following excerpt from an article by Alex Knapp: "There is a constant through line we see starting with '' A New Hope'' and running through to the end of the ''Return of the Jedi'' of the Emperor consolidating more and more power into his own hands and that of his right-hand man, Darth Vader Darth Vader is a fictional character in the ''Star Wa ...
