ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This document represents the work of more than two dozen people. They took the vision created by NCPC staff in planning in 1990 and developed in detail by a panel of experienced crime prevention practitioners in 1991 and transmuted it into a document that is, we hope, user-friendly and truly helpful to those seeking to talk with young people about prevention. Key NCPC staff in this project: S. Jonann Wild, Director of Youth Development Jean F. O'Neil, Managing Editor and Director of Research Judith Kirby, Special Assistant for Youth Programs They were critical in numerous ways to the creation and quality of this document. Other NCPC staff and consultants: Fay Pattee of NCPC developed the cover design and assisted in polishing up artwork; Jacqueline Aker helped in the final proofing and document assembly; Marty Pociask oversaw production. John A. Calhoun, Executive Director, was supportive and constructive throughout a difficult project gestation. Terrence W. Modglin, Director of Youth Programs, championed the original concept. Janet Erickson, a consultant to NCPC, prepared many of the early drafts of chapters; Sarah Hay, also a consultant, provided extensive editing, rewriting, and original text that pervades the entire document. Mike Ferrans, interning at NCPC during the summers of 1991 and 1992, did an enormous amount of research and substantial writing on this project. Tara Epstein, interning during the summer of 1991, also helped. Diane Alexander assisted with research; Diana Engel provided word processing support. The Document Development Group that met in April 1991 to explore the frame and scope of this Guide included Artemus Carter (Cleveland Marshall School of Law, Cleveland, Ohio), Maria Cedeno (Dade County Public Schools, Miami, Florida), Rita Dysart (Police Department, Kansas City, Missouri), Marti English (Montgomery County Public Schools, Wheaton, Maryland), Dot Price (Dekalb County Police Department, Decatur, Georgia), Ken Rosenberg (Arlington County Police Department, Arlington, Virginia), Steve Rutzebeck (Maryland State Police, Pikesville, Maryland), and Jerry Skrzypiec (Maryland State Police, Pikesville, Maryland). At the Bureau of Justice Assistance, Office of Justice Programs, u.s. Department of Justice, Robert H. (Bob) Brown, Jr., was a tower of patience and support for what has been a challenging project. i The knowledge, ideas, and activities contained in this document would not have been possible without the contributions of many thinkers and doers over the past decades. In many senses the content reflects what NCPC perceived as the most current or leading thought on the subject.

NIXON-ROULET PREFACE It requires much study of the Oriental mind to catch even brief glimpses of the secret of its mysterious charm. An open mind and the wisdom of great sympathy are conditions essential to making it at all possible. Contemplative, gentle, and metaphysical in their habit of thought, the Chinese have reflected profoundly and worked out many riddles of the universe in ways peculiarly their own. Realization of the value and need to us of a more definite knowledge of the mental processes of our Oriental brothers, increases wonder- fully as one begins to comprehend the richness, depth, and beauty of their thought, ripened as it is by the hidden processes of evolution throughout the ages. To obtain literal translations from the mental store- house of the Chinese has not been found easy of accom- plishment; but it is a more difficult, and a most elusive task to attempt to translate their fancies, to see life itself as it appears from the Chinese point of view, and to retell these impressions without losing quite all of their color and charm.

Unfortunately, for others, seeing as how the competition tries on a the company that has made Mickey Mouse a consistent basis to copy the style that Walt Disney household name for over 90 years, that isn’t the himself unofcially trademarked as far back as case. Even though people are showing up to the the late 1920s. Te very thought that something cinemas, they aren’t doing it because they expect is being put out by Disney can lead to biased to see a screen gem. Tey’re doing it because appeal.

The Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee has a vision to build a vibrant, inclusive, engaged Jewish community. To realize this vision, our leadership felt strongly that we must better understand the demographics of our Jewish community and the attitudes and needs of its residents.

This study will significantly impact the strategy and work of our Federation, helping us to better understand communal needs so that we can allocate our precious resources for maximum impact. The results are especially important and timely as we embark on a project to reimagine our 32-acre Larry Greenspon Family Campus for Jewish Life on McIntosh Road.

  • Frederick S. Litten a Mixed Picture Drawn Animation/Live Action Hybrids
    Frederick S. Litten A Mixed Picture drawn animation/live action hybrids worldwide from the 1960s to the 1980s In 1977, Bruno Edera suggested that full-length animated films had entered “a new „Golden Age‟” (Edera, 93), with directors working in “new modes of cinema”, including what he called “films in mixed media” (ibid., 14), otherwise often described as “mixed” or “hybrid” animation. Combining animation and live action is about as old as animation itself, or to be more pre- cise, as the perception of animation as something distinctly separate from live action (Crafton, 9). It can be found, to give just two early examples, in Sculpteur Moderne (France, 1908) by Segundo de Chomón, where live action and clay animation are presented, or in Winsor McCay‟s Little Nemo (USA, 1911), which combined live action and drawn animation. Yet, as a genre, hybrid animation has not been studied much from a historical point of view. In his recent book Animating Space, for example, J. P. Telotte is concerned with hybrid animation, but mostly from the United States. Moreover, the period between two of the acknowledged masterpieces and commercial successes of their kind – Mary Poppins (USA, 1964) and Who Framed Roger Rabbit (USA, 1988) – is covered in less than two lines (Te- lotte, 180). This paper will, in contrast to Telotte, focus on feature films (60 minutes and longer) and TV series combining drawn animation and live action which were produced in various coun- tries from the 1960s to the 1980s.1 It will propose first a descriptive classification scheme us- ing examples from the United States and Great Britain, assuming these are known best and are easiest to access internationally.

  • 10 Animated Fantasy Films
    10 ANIMATED FANTASY FILMSBy Bryan BEOWULF (2007)☐ After Robert Zemeckis journeyed into the Uncanny Valley of motion capture animation withThe Polar Express, he found an improved (if still creepy) look for this epic fantasy painting of a movie, with spectacular camera moves, some gore and a smart script by Pulp Fiction co-writer Roger Avary and The Sandman creator Neil Gaiman. Crispin "George McFly" Glover reunites with the director to bring his trademark weirdness to the monster, Grendel. THE BLACK CAULDRON (1985)☐ A few years before The Little Mermaid, when Disney was still trying to figure out what to do post-Walt, they took a big swing with this non-musical and so-scary-it-got-a-PG-rating (gasp) fantasy based on books by Lloyd Alexander. Though considered a flop at the time it holds up well because of its gorgeous background paintings and great animation of skeletons and ghouls. FIRE AND ICE (1983) ☐ Ralph Bakshi (whoseLord of the Rings could be on this list too) collaborated with the legendary Conan cover painter Frank Frazetta to make this rotoscoped barbarian film. They shot a bunch of people running around with furs and battle axes and then traced them onto animation cels painted up like Frazetta’s art. THEFLIGHT OF DRAGONS (1982)☐ Rankin-Bass, who blessed the world with everything from Heat Miser to Thundercats, also made a series of made-for-TV animated fantasies. The Hobbit and The Return of the King were followed by this exploration of the magic/science dichotomy. John Ritter voices a Boston writer transported from the ‘80s to a time of wizards and dragons.
