nameplate (title of newsletter along the top of front page)
body (text of an article)
table of contents (list of sections and which pages they are on)
headline (title of main article, usually an eye-catcher, or turn of the phrase; an attention getter, usually in larger type)
kicker (don’t know this one)
deck (don’t know this one either, sorry)
subhead (lesser headline)
running head (not sure… either the line that runs along the top of every page with the name of the newsletter, sometimes section name, and page number – or – the continuation headline when an article jumps to a different page)
bylines (name of the writer of the article)
end signs (little symbols, such as boxes, or triangles, etc., at the end of an article and/or at the end of a page indicating the article does not continue; can be utilitarian or decorative as part of the overall design)pull quotes (decorative box with a quote from the article enlarged and used as a graphic for drawing the reader to an article, frequently done with a colored background for magazines or 2+color newsletters)
myg shots (another one I dont know)
caption (small text beneath a photo describing what the photo is)
mailing panel (usually on the back page; a white space with a return address and bulk mailing info where an address label can be affixed for mailing)
