  • Vampire Weekend Album Download Vampire Weekend Start '2021' with New 40:42 EP Featuring Two New Reinterpretations of Their Song
    vampire weekend album download Vampire Weekend start '2021' with new 40:42 EP featuring two new reinterpretations of their song. For their new 40:42 EP released Thursday, the Grammy-winning band commissioned acclaimed jazz saxophonist Sam Gendel and the Connecticut rock quintet Goose to both create their own reinterpretations of the Father of the Bride album track. One twist though: Vampire Weekend gave Gendel and Goose the directive to turn their one minute and thirty-nine second long song into two twenty minute and twenty-one second versions (hence the title 40:42 ). In addition to fans being able to hear the two unique interpretations, Gendel and Goose both came with their own visuals. While Gendel's jazzy take comes with some improvisational animation, Goose chose to film themselves performing an intimate, up-close take on the song. Watch both Sam Gendel and Goose's versions of Vampire Weekend's "2021" above. The 40:42 EP is now available to stream across all digital platforms. Vampire Weekend. Purchase and download this album in a wide variety of formats depending on your needs. Buy the album Starting at £12.49. With the Internet able to build up or tear down artists almost as soon as they start practicing, the advance word and intense scrutiny doesn't always do a band any favors. By the time they've got a full-length album ready to go, the trend-spotters are already several Hot New Bands past them. Vampire Weekend started generating buzz in 2006 -- not long after they formed -- but their self-titled debut album didn't arrive until early 2008.

  • Getting Down to Basics: Tools to Support LGBTQ Youth in Care, Child Welfare League a Place of Respect: a Guide for Group Care of Am
    Getting Down to Basics Tools to Support LGBTQ Youth in Care Overview of Tool Kit Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) young people are in America’s child welfare and juvenile justice systems in disproportionate numbers. Like all young people in care, they have the right to be safe and protected. All too often, however, they are misunderstood and mistreated, leading to an increased risk of negative outcomes.

  • Basic Reforms to Address the Unmet Needs of Lgbt Foster Youth
    II. BASIC REFORMS TO ADDRESS THE UNMET NEEDS OF LGBT FOSTER YOUTH What emerges from our state-by-state survey is a picture of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth under-served by foster care systems. These youth remain in the margins, their best interests ignored and their safety in jeopardy. To remedy LGBT invisibility, prevent abuse, and improve care for these adolescents, we propose the following crucial, basic reforms in the areas of non-discrimination policies, training for foster parents and foster care staff,48 and LGBT youth services and programs. A. Non-discrimination policies States should adopt and enforce explicit, systemwide policies prohibiting discrimina- tion. Specifically, these should include prohibitions against discrimination on the basis of: the sexual orientation of foster care youth, the sexual orientation of foster parents and other foster household members, the sexual orientation of foster care staff, the HIV/AIDS status of foster care youth, the HIV/AIDS status of foster parents and other foster household members, and the HIV/AIDS status of foster care staff. These policies should encompass actual or perceived sexual orientation or HIV/ AIDS status. Discrimination prohibitions should also forbid discrimination on the basis of gender identity. Sex discrimination provisions should be interpreted to bar such discrimi- nation, and that scope can be made explicit by enumerating sex, including gender identity, among forbidden bases of discrimination in agency policies. Adopting LGBT non-discrimination policies is an important acknowledgment that LGBT youth are present in the foster care system in significant numbers and that they 22 Youth in the Margins often face prejudice, neglect, and abuse.

  • Roadside Picnic
    ROADSIDE PICNIC Arkady and Boris Strugatsky Translated from the Russian by Antonina W. Bouis Cryptomaoist Editions FROM AN INTERVIEW BY A SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT FROM HARMONT RADIO WITH DOCTOR VALENTINE PILMAN, RECIPIENT OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR 19.. "I suppose that your first serious discovery, Dr. Pilman, should be considered what is now called the Pilman Radiant?" "I don't think so. The Pilman Radiant wasn't the first, nor was it serious, nor was it really a discovery. And it wasn't completely mine, either." "Surely you're joking, doctor. The Pilman Radiant is a concept known to every schoolchild." "That doesn't surprise me. According to some sources, the Pilman Radiant was discovered by a schoolboy. Unfortunately, I don't remember his name. Look it up in Stetson's History of the Visitation -- it's described in full detail there. His version is that the radiant was discovered by a schoolboy, that a college student published the coordinates, but that for some unknown reason it was named after me." "Yes, many amazing things can happen with a discovery. Would you mind explaining it to our listeners, Dr. Pilman?" "The Pilman Radiant is simplicity itself. Imagine that you spin a huge globe and you start firing bullets into it. The bullet holes would lie on the surface in a smooth curve. The whole point of what you call my first serious discovery lies in the simple fact that all six Visitation Zones are situated on the surface of our planet as though someone had taken six shots at Earth from a pistol located some- where along the Earth-Deneb line.

Cherecwich Cook to Learn: A Food-Focused Curriculum for Grades 3-5 In this Integrated Master’s Project, I argue that a new curriculum is needed to address the following: (a) plant-based foods and from-scratch food preparation practices are strongly connected to positive outcomes for children, (b) diets high in processed foods can lead to negative health outcomes (c) students aged 8-10 are particularly well suited to learn more about food, (d) studying food offers many opportunities for interdisciplinary learning across many subjects (literacy, math, science and social studies) and (d) food-focused learning connects particularly well to common learning objectives for students in grades 3-5, yet (e) there is currently a dearth of appropriate curricular materials to meet the needs of today’s student population.
