JESSE LIMA Staff Writer Cal State Fullerton won the Big West Commissioner’s Cup during the 2017-18 school year for the first time in school history, while owning one of the lowest funding budgets in the entire conference. Despite its recent success, Cal State Fullerton athletics has not lost its under- dog identity, said Steve DiTolla, senior associate director. “If you were to look at the overall budget in the Big West conference alone, we are eighth out of nine (teams) and we finished first in the Commissioner’s Cup.

  • Daddy, Tell Me a Little Story? I Expected My Father Arrives with an Insistent Request, Every Night at Every Single Day, Throughout My Childhood
    MAKING MY HISTORY Guide action for volunteer Translation note - Unfortunately there is no translation for the children’s books and activities mentioned in this guide. Daddy, tell me a little story? I expected my father arrives with an insistent request, every night at every single day, throughout my childhood. Even if I was tired, passing the bedtime, I kept my eyes wide open so he could with his stories, pack my sleep and feed my dreams. The winged horse, the painter cat, the tenor fish and a number of characters and plots stimulating my imagination and curiosity about the world, the affections and the "human" relationships. My mother use to be responsible for tell me a different story. No fantastic creatures or spectacular routes, she tell me tenderly, always with the same tone: "I stayed nine months resting before you born, and at the maternity I counted the fingers of your hands and feet to see if my little baby was born perfect. Due the joy, I kissed one by one!”. That was my history, and being mine, I was so much desired as feared. It was more about cats, horses or fish that I asked myself, but about what my mother felt for me, my place in my family and in the world. I'm sure these histories, real and fictional, were instrumental in my development and dreams that I, as a child, designed for my future. Many years later, I had the opportunity to closely know shelters and I noticed that in some of them, they poorly know the histories of the children that are accepted, and even less say something about it.

  • Shelters in the Future: a National Conversation
    OCTOBER 2019 SHELTERS IN THE FUTURE: A NATIONAL CONVERSATION Women’s Shelters Canada (WSC) developed the Shelters of the Future Project to examine the mul- tiple roles that violence against women (VAW) shelters and transition houses1 play in supporting and protecting women who are victims of violence. This was a three-year project funded by the Department for Women and Gender Equality (WAGE, formerly Status of Women Canada) from June 2016 to June 2019. One of the project’s main goals was to build a comprehensive nation- al profile of VAW shelters through a national survey and a national consultation process. To mark the end of the project, WSC planned a working meeting called Shelters in the Fu- ture – an opportunity for representatives from VAW shelters and partner organizations to come together to honour the past, exam- ine the present, and look to the future. Fifty participants gathered in Ottawa on May 2-3, 2019 to take part. An album of photos can be found here. 1Across the country, some provinces and territories use the term “shelter” while others use “transition house” to describe VAW resi- dential and outreach facilities and services. For simplicity, the term “shelter” will be used in this report. 1 Honouring the Past Participants attended a lunch and panel discussion honouring the founders of Canada’s first wom- en’s shelters, with the Honoura- ble Maryam Monsef, Minister of WAGE. Margo Goodhand, author of Runaway Wives and Rogue Feminists, introduced the founders or their representatives: Ardis Beaudry (Edmonton Women’s Shelter, AB), Janet Currie (Ishtar Transition House, BC), Thérèse Dallaire-Laplante (Carrefour pour Elles, QC), Lorraine Kenaschuk (Saskatoon Interval House, SK), Natalie McBride (National Aboriginal Circle Against Family Violence), and Lynn Zimmer (To- ronto Interval House, ON).

  • Some Rap Songs Full Album Download
    some rap songs full album download What Is Rap Music? Rap music, also known as Hip-Hop music is a rhythmic music genre derived from the Hip-Hop culture (rapping, beatboxing, DJing, break dancing and graffiti writing). Rapping is performed by Emcees/MC’s/Rappers who use their vocals in a melodic rhyme form which is often described as being very similar to poetry. Rappers can go acapella (rapping without a beat/instrumental) or perform on a track in a freestyle or written form. As a whole, rap music has grown to be immensely popular, especially to those who live in poor areas or/and people who are going through personal struggles. This is because many rap artists come from poor areas themselves and have also gone through the same strugglers experienced by the listener, so naturally they can relate to their music. Styles Of Rap Music. Rap music is one of the most popular music genres in the world and since its birth in the 1970’s in Bronx, New York, it has broken off into various subgenres and has even fused with other music genres. Its heavily influenced by Funk, Jazz, Rhythm & Blues, Soul and Disco music. Entire books can be written (and has been written) about rapping and the history of hip-hop. I won’t get into that as they can be better explained by other authors. My main focus in this article is on the different styles of modern rap music. Generally, rap beats are between 75-110 BPM (beats per minute), although there is no rule and it can range widely depending on one’s personal preference.

  • A Critical Analysis of the Black President in Film and Television
    “WELL, IT IS BECAUSE HE’S BLACK”: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE BLACK PRESIDENT IN FILM AND TELEVISION Phillip Lamarr Cunningham A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2011 Committee: Dr. Angela M. Nelson, Advisor Dr. Ashutosh Sohoni Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Michael Butterworth Dr. Susana Peña Dr. Maisha Wester © 2011 Phillip Lamarr Cunningham All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Angela Nelson, Ph.D., Advisor With the election of the United States’ first black president Barack Obama, scholars have begun to examine the myriad of ways Obama has been represented in popular culture. However, before Obama’s election, a black American president had already appeared in popular culture, especially in comedic and sci-fi/disaster films and television series. Thus far, scholars have tread lightly on fictional black presidents in popular culture; however, those who have tend to suggest that these presidents—and the apparent unimportance of their race in these films—are evidence of the post-racial nature of these texts. However, this dissertation argues the contrary. This study’s contention is that, though the black president appears in films and televisions series in which his presidency is presented as evidence of a post-racial America, he actually fails to transcend race. Instead, these black cinematic presidents reaffirm race’s primacy in American culture through consistent portrayals and continued involvement in comedies and disasters. In order to support these assertions, this study first constructs a critical history of the fears of a black presidency, tracing those fears from this nation’s formative years to the present.
