  • Free Land Attracted Many Colonists to Texas in 1840S 3-29-92 “No Quitting Sense” We Claim Is Typically Texas
    “Between the Creeks” Gwen Pettit This is a compilation of weekly newspaper columns on local history written by Gwen Pettit during 1986-1992 for the Allen Leader and the Allen American in Allen, Texas. Most of these articles were initially written and published, then run again later with changes and additions made. I compiled these articles from the Allen American on microfilm at the Allen Public Library and from the Allen Leader newspapers provided by Mike Williams. Then, I typed them into the computer and indexed them in 2006-07. Lois Curtis and then Rick Mann, Managing Editor of the Allen American gave permission for them to be reprinted on April 30, 2007, [email protected]. Please, contact me to obtain a free copy on a CD. I have given a copy of this to the Allen Public Library, the Harrington Library in Plano, the McKinney Library, the Allen Independent School District and the Lovejoy School District. Tom Keener of the Allen Heritage Guild has better copies of all these photographs and is currently working on an Allen history book. Keener offices at the Allen Public Library. Gwen was a longtime Allen resident with an avid interest in this area’s history. Some of her sources were: Pioneering in North Texas by Capt. Roy and Helen Hall, The History of Collin County by Stambaugh & Stambaugh, The Brown Papers by George Pearis Brown, The Peters Colony of Texas by Seymour V. Conner, Collin County census & tax records and verbal history from local long-time residents of the county. She does not document all of her sources.

  • Famed Soprano Renee Fleming Performs Original Single 'Still Dream'
    PRESS RELEASE Oct. 15, 2012, 1:55 p.m. EDT Famed Soprano Renee Fleming Performs Original Single 'Still Dream' With Music By Alexandre Desplat And Lyrics By David Lindsay-Abaire For DreamWorks Animation's "Rise of the Guardians" New Single Headlines Soundtrack Album Featuring Score by Four-Time Academy Award® Nominated Composer Alexandre Desplat GLENDALE, Calif., Oct. 15, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ ‐‐ DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. DWA ‐0.05% today announced that acclaimed soprano Renee Fleming has performed the original song "Still Dream" on the soundtrack for the upcoming Rise of the Guardians, which also features a score by Four‐Time Academy Award® nominated and Grammy® Award winning composer Alexandre Desplat. Varese Sarabande will release the soundtrack on November 13, preceding the film's nationwide release on November 21. The original, end‐credit song "Still Dream" was written and produced by Desplat, with lyrics by Rise of the Guardians screenwriter, Grammy® Award nominee and Pulitzer Prize winning author, David Lindsay‐Abaire. The complete score, recorded at the historic Abbey Road in London and Air Studios, was performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and features choral work by London Voices. To create the music and lyrics for the original song, Desplat and Lindsay‐Abaire drew upon the film's heroic and sweeping story as inspiration. "There is much more music in Rise of the Guardians than is found in the average live‐action film," says Desplat, who conducted the London Symphony Orchestra in the recording of his original compositions. "The goal with the score was to emphasize every moment of joy, sadness and soul so that audiences would be able to dive with the characters into their worlds.

Churchill é um brilhante e bem-humorado estadista, membro de destaque do Parlamento, mas, aos 65 anos de idade, é pouco provável que seja candidato a Primeiro Ministro.

  • The Taming of the Shrew and Its Afterlives 1 Leaders: Coppélia Kahn, Brown University; Linda Woodbridge, Pennsylvania State University
    2018 Seminar: The Taming of the Shrew and Its Afterlives 1 Leaders: Coppélia Kahn, Brown University; Linda Woodbridge, Pennsylvania State University Patricia Akhimie, Rutgers University, Newark, Travel for Marriage: The Newlywed’s Journey in The Taming of the Shrew This paper explores the role that travel plays in the making of marriages and the taming of shrews. The Taming of the Shrew draws upon a narrative tradition that accompanies a cultural commonplace: the episode in which a daughter leaves her father’s home and journeys to her husband’s home. Examining the legal, literary, and folkloric significance of travel for marriage in early modern England, this paper asks how Katherina’s travel reflects and disrupts ideas about the transformation (through transportation) of daughters into wives. David Bevington, University of Chicago Sometimes Crossing a Line The Taming of the Shrew in Chicago and London Adaptations of The Taming of the Shrew, often helpful, can do the play a disservice when the point of a given production seems to be that of discrediting Shakespeare's original as irredeemably flawed. This essay looks at recent productions in Chicago and Stratford that suggest a failure of critical responsibility. Clara Calvo, Universidad de Murcia Taming the Shrew Around Wartime: From Europe to New York This paper looks into the reception of productions of The Taming of the Shrew in the last years of the Edwardian period and the first years of the First World War to suggest that the inclusion of the induction and the choice of ‘original practices’ for the mise-en-scène minimised the play’s problematic notions of gender.

  • Wmc Investigation: 10-Year Analysis of Gender & Oscar
    WMC INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR ANALYSIS OF GENDER & OSCAR NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com @womensmediacntr WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan, and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonproft organization endeav- oring to raise the visibility, viability, and decision-making power of women and girls in media and thereby ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of interconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a cul- ture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences, and images are nei- ther suffciently amplifed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences, and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment flm and television, social media, and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; “The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Media Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; “WMC Media Watch: The Gender Gap in Coverage of Reproductive Issues”; “Writing Rape: How U.S. Media Cover Campus Rape and Sexual Assault”; “WMC Investigation: 10-Year Review of Gender & Emmy Nominations”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual WMC Status of Women in the U.S.

    7PKV i http://www.scriptureunion.org.nz/ A LEADER’S AIM & prayer I am discipling young people so that they can say, ‘I acknowledge Jesus as my Saviour and Lord.’ I know that they will watch my life. Help me to live so that they only see Jesus in me. I will study God’s word so I can present its great truths faithfully and well. Safety and care Carelessness is the opposite of loving. True care will be anticipatory (thinking ahead and being responsible), pro-active (their concerns are my concerns) and personal. The most important thing is not the program – it’s the person. So keep your ministry safe! Don’t assume that everything will be OK – build safety and care into your youth ministry.
