Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Kick-Off – The kick-off for the new Eden Prairie Beyond the Yellow Ribbon Campaign (BTYR) is scheduled for this Saturday at 10:00 am at the Community Center parking lot as part of Schooner Days. There will be a series of speakers at the Saturday kick-off including Acting Mayor Ron Case. As you may recall, BTYR is a comprehensive program that creates awareness for the purpose of connecting military service members and their families with community support, training, services and resources. According to the organization’s website this is done in many other BTYR communities by: Creating awareness through the Yellow Ribbon Community Campaign and synchronizing sustainable community support networks; and Connecting and coordinating organizations, agencies and companies to provide resources and support to Service members and their families; and Delivering a series of formal Yellow Ribbon Training events to Service members and their families before, during and after deployment; and Providing an opportunity for Minnesotans to support Service members and their families. 2. GE Eco Experience Center – Mayor Tyra-Lukens, Council Member Aho, Janet Jeremiah and David Lindahl attended the grand opening of the GE vehicle innovation center in Eden Prairie yesterday. The new center showcases the newest array of alternative fuel vehicles in electric, natural gas, propane, hydrogen and other formats. The center also gives customers the opportunity to learn about and test-drive numerous alternative fuel cars and trucks in a single location with assistance from GE’s fleet experts. 3. Comcast Franchise Agreement Renewal – This past Wednesday the Southwest Suburban Cable Commission recommended approval of the renewed Comcast cable franchise agreement for 2012-2022. The five member cities will now need to take action on the proposed agreement. We have scheduled our July 17 City Council meeting as the date for consideration of the franchise agreement. 4. Greater MSP – The Council workshop on Tuesday will involve a presentation by the new regional economic development organization called Greater MSP. This less than one year-old organization is the result of a previous Itasca Project study on job growth throughout our region. One of the group’s studies found that our region fell short compared to other high performing regions around the world due to the lack of a clear regional strategy for economic development coordinated by a central group. That is a role that is now being filled by Greater MSP. Specifically, Greater MSP has stated that their role be will be to lead or partner with existing public and private organizations to: • Set a strategic vision for regional economic development • Define and guide a tactical economic development agenda • Brand and market our region to internal and external audiences • Retain and expand current businesses in the region • Attract new businesses to the region • Connect businesses with local resources and incentives PL SKYHAWKS T-BALL AND BASEBALL CAMP COOKOUT A Ages 4–8 Ages 8–12 YG Learn the fundamentals of fielding, catching, throwing, Have fun cooking dinner over a campfire, sing songs, hitting, and base running all in a fun, positive play games, go for short hikes, learn about nature ROU environment. athletes learn new baseball skills along and make a few craft projects.

  • Taking Comics Seriously
    POP CULTURE clusively with daytime. The show features no gunfights or car chases; there are moments of leisurely, uneventful conversation between the younger and older generations. It is a curious inversion: Where once daytime TV fled prime time, prime time now copies daytime. The evidence is every- where, from the success of The Forsyte Saga and Upstairs Down- stairs (soap operas with extra starch) to major television serials like Rich Man Poor Man, Roots, and Captains and Kings. Spec- taculars aside, even a regular offering such as Family reflects a soap-opera sense of continuity. The major characters suffer. They have affairs, consider marriage, drop out of school, worry about mortality It goes too far to say that daytime dramas are genuinely realistic. The necessities of the form require too many brushes with the kinds of crises that most families would suffer only a few times in a generation. But both soaps and game shows have certainly tried to move television closer to what Paddy Chayefsky called "the marvelous world of the ordinary." What daytime TV has given prime time is the possibility of exploring characters not through the prism of fantasy, but through a focus closer to the way most of us spend our lives. And that is no mean contribution. TAKING COMICS SERIOUSLY by Arthur Asa Berger New art forms are often greeted with derision. Attic tragedy was denounced by conservative Greeks, impressionism by high- brow Parisians. Americans, too, have snubbed new, indigenous art forms. The comics, for example, like jazz music, are a home- grown American product; and like jazz, they were long ignored by "serious" critics.

    Comics heroine comes to Theatre Lawrence Annie will charm the hearts of all when she takes the Theatre Lawrence stage November 30 – December 16. Based on the popular comic strip by Harold Gray, Annie has become a worldwide phenomenon and is the winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical. The beloved book and score by Tony Award winners, Thomas Meehan, Charles Strouse and Martin Charnin, features some of the greatest musical theatre hits ever written, including Tomorrow, and Hard Knock Life and opens on Friday, November 30th. A plucky, orphan girl, Annie (Adelle Spiess and Vivi Riffel) is on a mission to find her parents in 1930s New York City, after being abandoned years ago on the doorstep of an orphanage run by the cruel Miss Hannigan (Amanda Clark). With the help of the other girls in the orphanage, Annie escapes and experiences adventure in The Big Apple, making friends with billionaire Daddy Warbucks (Hank Rischar), Franklin D. Roosevelt (Dean Bevan) and a lovable dog, Sandy (Winnie) until finally finding her forever home. Annie‘s rags to riches tale is guaranteed to please audiences and remind us that helping those who are less fortunate can turn out to be the most rewarding gift of all. The production boasts a large cast headed by two young ladies, (Adelle Spiess and Vivi Riffel) who have been double cast in the role of Annie. The large cast includes: Genée Figuieras as Grace Farrell, Tony Console as Rooster, Annie Sauerburger as Lily, and the large list of double cast orphans, Caroline Börk, Isabelle Colon-Alba, Jazzlyn Fowler, Olivia Goeser, Abigayle Groves, Tilly Johnson, Katie Mastrosimone, Juliet Outka, Julia Ruddy, Giulia Ventello, Delaney Wagner, Mimi Wood.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Annie's War by Jacqueline Levering Sullivan Tell the Rain Goodbye. What could a troubled sixteen year-old and an aging, homeless television actress, now living in her decaying Mercedes, possibly have in common? Plenty as it turns out. Tracy Cooper finds her life begins to change in ways she never could have imagined after a chance meeting with Alana “Lanie” Milner, once one of television’s most beloved stars. Tracy soon finds herself caught up in the heartbreaking life on the street. The experience becomes a defining one for her, and she uses her camera to record Lanie’s life and the experiences of homeless women she meets. In the process, she learns to deal with loss and the value of letting go, and she realizes that being a family is more about love and acceptance than about blood. Lovesick. Lovesick chronicles the complexity of teenage life and the American political climate in the 1950s. The young adult novel, published by Glass Apple Press, is available in paperback and digital format through Amazon and other major book retailers. In Lovesick , Jeanmarie Dowd is crazy about handsome Chuck Neary, captain of Rainier High School’s hockey team and a musician. But he belongs to Terry Miller, Jeanmarie’s best friend and the school’s reigning beauty. But Jeanmarie has a few things going for her, too. She is smart, fun-loving and energetic.

Abstract ____________________________ This interdisciplinary thesis examines the myth of the orphan in twentieth-century America as exemplified through the recurring story of “Little Orphan Annie,” an iconic American figure of independence, resilience, and optimism. By providing historical context and literary analysis for each of Annie’s crucial moments in the twentieth century, this thesis shows how the character has advanced a misguided perception of orphan and youth agency. While evolving to represent different decades of American society in the twentieth century through different mediums, Annie has further misled Americans in their perception of orphan and youth agency.

  • Little Orphan Annie and Conservative Politics
    Small but Standing Tall: Harold Gray’s Little Orphan Annie and the pre-New Deal American Ideal [Note: The text below is, as it were, an op-ed piece by a superannuated Gray-inspired curmudgeon.] Are you a conservative? If your answer to this question is “Yes,”, then arguably you should not be a conservative – you’re unqualified. But if your answer is “No,” then you may want to think about becoming one . OK, what’s the catch? What else could it be except that a good case can be made for conservatism being something other than what our contemporaries, conservatives included, think it is? But how could there be a difference? Don’t conservatives, in the spirit of Edmund Burke, at least try to conserve traditional valuations? And if conservatism doesn’t consist in conserving, what is it? First, let’s ask Miss Nomer, a literary hackette at least as overworked as her famous cousin Madame Malaprop, what’s not the catch. Then let’s ask an 88 year old, red-headed orphan girl with a dog named Sandy what the catch is. * 1 Stemming as it obviously does from the Latin word for “free,” “liberal” is clearly one of Miss Nomer’s prize confections, though not her pièce de résistance. A political ethos whose logical endgame is to legislate, regulate and court-order the life of citizens until all that’s not obligatory is forbidden can be called many things, but the stuff of freedom it is not. And though she knows full well that liberals certainly spend freely, Miss Nomer is quick to cackle that liberality is the virtue of freely giving out of one’s own substance, not the flinging of largesse culled by coercion from others.
