Dochterman who was Rotary International President from 1992-3 called, ―The ABC’s of Rotary. Council on Legislation In the early days, any change in the RI bylaws or constitution was proposed and voted on at the annual convention. As attendance at conventions increased and open discussion became more difficult, the Council on Legislation was created in 1934 as an advisory group to debate and analyze proposals before they were voted on by the convention. Finally at the 1970 Atlanta convention, it was decided that the Council on Legislation would actually become the legislative or parliamentary body of Rotary. The Council is composed of one delegate from each Rotary district as well as several ex officio members. It was agreed that the Council would meet every three years at a site and time other than the RI Convention. The Council has the responsibility of considering and acting upon all enactments, which are proposed changes in the RI By-laws and Constitution and the Standard Rotary Club Constitution, and resolutions, which are recommendations. to the RI Board for policy program, and procedural changes. Proposals may be submitted by any Rotary club or district of the RI Board. The Council’s actions are subject to review by all the Rotary clubs of the world before they become final. If a Council action is opposed by 10 percent of the voting strength of the clubs, such legislation is suspended and submitted to all the clubs for a final vote. The Council on Legislation provides the membership of Rotary a democratic process for legislative change in the operations of Rotary International. Program Today’s program was presented by Tamalin Martin from the Rome Art & Community Center Historical Notes Before being purchased by the city of Rome, (1966) the RACC was the Carpenter home. It is an example of English Tudor architecture. Arthur F. Carpenter was one of Rome’s most successful industrialists who owned Rome Metallic Bedsted Co. The house was built in 1923 directed by Arthur’s wife. The relief fireplaces, ceilings, and carvings over the oak stairs are ornamented with symbols hat represent English crests and coats of rms. The favorite symbol of the Carpenters was the greyhound. When the house was complete in 1923, the Carpenters hired the famous art collector, Joseph Duveen to furnish the interior. The final furnishings (Some still remain) were coordinated to avoid a feeling of newness. Fine paintings included a hall painting from the Canaletto School which is still in the hall. Volunteers Tamalin is looking for skilled people in the following areas: Gardening, landscaping, painting, woodworking, cleaning, moving furniture, office work, organizations, and general upkeep. For RACC’s events: taking tickets, ushering, concession. For seasonal events: decoration, set-up, and tear down.

The Durban FilmMart has over the past 10 years established itself as an important platform for the development of African Cinema. Recently, the City of Durban, principal funder of the annual Durban FilmMart, supported the establishment of the Durban FilmMart Institute (DFMI). This important move from an annual event to an Institute, will enable the DFMI to provide African filmmakers with further opportunities for development, collaborations, and access to global markets. We are humbled by the progressiveness of the City of Durban, in understanding the need to ensure the future sustainability and growth of moving pictures. The inaugural board of the DFMI comprises five representatives of independent, non-government organisations from different sectors of the film industry in South Africa. Chairing the board is myself, Mandisa Zitha representing the Independent Black Filmmakers Collective. I am joined by well-known South African filmmakers Theoline Maphutha, representing the Writers Guild of SA, Jacintha de Nobrega, representing SWIFT (Sisters Working in Film and Television), Neil Brandt representing the Documentary Filmmakers Association and Thandi Davids representing the Independent Producers Organisation as colleague directors on the board.

  • TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian
    Accessed: 6/10/2020 TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian To learn more about The UCSD Guardian's coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic, click here → TV Review: “The Great” May 25, 2020 Chloe Esser “The Great” doesn’t care about history, and neither should you. From creator of “The Favourite” Tony McNamara comes another historical retelling that slides right out of the conventions typically associated with the period drama genre into a terribly clever, terrifically dark piece of its own. “The Great” covers Russian empress Catherine the Great’s rise to power as a teenage girl — with some massive liberties. The show neatly balances the courtly decadence and subtle power plays of “The Favourite” with the blood, sex, and quick wit that’s to be expected in a world where all historical dramas must compete to be the next “Game of Thrones.” Nevertheless, it’s a well-maintained balance. Heavily stylized, effortlessly witty, and maybe a bit needlessly obscene, “The Great” is a show that knows exactly what it is, whether or not that has anything to do with actual history. The show begins with German teenager Catherine (Elle Fanning), who has come to Russia to marry a man she has never met –– Emperor Peter III (Nicholas Hoult). An idealist and intellectual caught up in the wave of Europe’s Enlightenment, Catherine has big plans for Accessed: 6/10/2020 TV Review: "The Great" - UCSD Guardian her new home, and she is disappointed to find a court more concerned with hunting, sex, and booze than discussing the latest Voltaire.
