Harris in Chicago Illinois on Feb. 23, 1905. The first meeting was held in Room 711 of the Unity Building. Four prospective members attended that first meeting. From there Rotary spread immediately to San Francisco California, and on November 12, 1908 Club # 2 was chartered. From San Francisco, Homer Woods, the founding President, went on to start clubs in Oakland and in 1909 traveled to southern California and founded the Rotary Club of Los Angeles (LA 5) In 1914, at a fellowship meeting of 6 western Rotary Clubs H. J. Brunnier, Presi- dent of the Rotary Club of San Francisco, awoke in the middle of the night with the concept of Rotary Districts. He summoned a porter to bring him a railroad sched- ule of the United States, which also included a map of the USA, and proceeded to map the location of the 100 Rotary clubs that existed at that time and organized them into 13 districts.

  • Reproductive Technologies and Surrogacy: a Feminist Perspective
    1599 REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGIES AND SURROGACY: A FEMINIST PERSPECTIVE BARBARA KATz ROTHMANt During the "Baby M" case, I found myself caught up in the me- dia circus surrounding the case and spent an amazing amount of time in green rooms with Noel King, the man who had brokered the sur- rogacy contract between Mr. and Mrs. Stern and Mr. and Mrs. White- head. I think I spent more time putting on my makeup for that particular surrogate broker than I did with my husband that year. I found that one of the interesting things that happened was the way that the media used me for something it called balance. The media would have a carefully groomed "surrogate" and her broker on one side and then on the other side, it would usually have a rabbi or a priest or minister, and then me. The little tag that appeared in white letters on the television screen under me sometimes read "author" and sometimes read "sociologist," but usually it read "feminist," and so I was there to be the feminist balance. My family and friends time and again agreed with the viewpoint of the rabbi, the priest, or the minister. Today, I find myself in the same general mode of opposi- tion to this arrangement we call surrogacy, proving the point that surrogacy does, indeed, in every possible way, make for very strange bedfellows. Although I and others who are critical of the development of surrogacy from a feminist perspective may be on the same side of this particular fence as the religious leaders, we are coming from a very different place, and we are going to a very different place.

  • Note Di Produzione
    ! Note di produzione Questa è la storia dell’ascesa del gruppo più famigerato del mondo. Nel 1987, usando rime brutalmente vere e ritmi hardcore, cinque ragazzi —Ice Cube (O’SHEA JACKSON, JR.), Dr. Dre (COREY HAWKINS di Non-Stop), Eazy-E (JASON MITCHELL di Contraband), DJ Yella (NEIL BROWN, JR. di Fast & Furious) e MC Ren (ALDIS HODGE di Die Hard – Un buon giorno per morire) — hanno trasformato la loro frustrazione e rabbia nei confronti della vita nel loro quartiere a Los Angeles nell’arma più potente che avevano: la loro musica. Verso la fine degli anni ’80, le strade di Compton, California, erano tra le più pericolose del Paese. Il crack si stava diffondendo a una velocità tanto allarmante quanto il business violento delle bande che spingevano il suo uso. Il dipartimento di polizia di Los Angeles (LAPD) e la sua unità specializzata in gang conducevano una guerra contro la droga con una ferocia tanto incontrollata e senza freni da lasciare i residenti della comunità di quella cittadina della California del sud non semplicemente tesi ma scioccati, senza fiducia verso l’autorità e dolorosamente inaspriti. Eazy-E, un carismatico spacciatore e traffichino tanto sveglio da vedere un futuro nell’emergente scena rap di L.A., aveva un piano. Deciso a lasciarsi alle spalle la vita di strada si è messo in contatto con il suo amico Dr. Dre, un deejay locale che lavorava regolarmente nei club di Compton in coppia con DJ Yella. Anche loro erano stanchi di vicoli ciechi e affamati di cambiamento, e Eazy-E aveva le risorse e le connessioni per fare il grande cambiamento.
