Five sections of the manual are devoted to profiles of programs using the following categories of strategies: (1) generating new public revenue for child care, including tax strategies, tax credits, deductions, and exemptions, and fees and lotteries; (2) allocating existing public general revenue for child care;(3) financing child care in the private sector, such as employer- and union-supported care and community child care initiatives;(4) financing child care through public-private partnerships; and (5) financing child care facilities, including using grants, bonds, and loans. The catalog's introduction describes characteristics of successful financing strategies for raising money for child care. Each profile describes a specific financing strategy, when it was initiated, the amount of funding it generates, how funds are distributed, what services are funded, and who is eligible for them. Additional locations using similar financing strategies are listed with contact information. Also in each profile are opinions and analysis of the pros and cons of each strategy plus lessons learned from the participants' perspective. Historical, political, and economic factor contributing to the success of an approach are included. Four appendices describe revenue-generation methods, outline tax strategies and governmental powers, and list key national organizations in child care and family support, and members of the National Children's Facilities Network. Contains 58 references.

  • In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence
    In Defense of Rap Music: Not Just Beats, Rhymes, Sex, and Violence THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master of Arts Degree in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Crystal Joesell Radford, BA Graduate Program in Education The Ohio State University 2011 Thesis Committee: Professor Beverly Gordon, Advisor Professor Adrienne Dixson Copyrighted by Crystal Joesell Radford 2011 Abstract This study critically analyzes rap through an interdisciplinary framework. The study explains rap‟s socio-cultural history and it examines the multi-generational, classed, racialized, and gendered identities in rap. Rap music grew out of hip-hop culture, which has – in part – earned it a garnering of criticism of being too “violent,” “sexist,” and “noisy.” This criticism became especially pronounced with the emergence of the rap subgenre dubbed “gangsta rap” in the 1990s, which is particularly known for its sexist and violent content. Rap music, which captures the spirit of hip-hop culture, evolved in American inner cities in the early 1970s in the South Bronx at the wake of the Civil Rights, Black Nationalist, and Women‟s Liberation movements during a new technological revolution. During the 1970s and 80s, a series of sociopolitical conscious raps were launched, as young people of color found a cathartic means of expression by which to describe the conditions of the inner-city – a space largely constructed by those in power. Rap thrived under poverty, police repression, social policy, class, and gender relations (Baker, 1993; Boyd, 1997; Keyes, 2000, 2002; Perkins, 1996; Potter, 1995; Rose, 1994, 2008; Watkins, 1998).

  • Russell Simmons Russell Simmons Has Been the Leader in Bringing The
    Russell Simmons Russell Simmons has been the leader in bringing the powerful influence of hip-hop culture to every facet of business and media since its inception in the late 1970s through current day, in which its integration into mainstream American Culture means an entirely new, post-racial, progressive America. Simmons' businesses have always been rooted in giving a powerful voice to emerging creative and social movements, and integrating them into the American psyche. His business successes have spanned music, film, television, fashion, the jewelry industry, video games, online and financial services; his activism has encompassed all of the areas touched by his businesses, including poverty, education and ignorance. From producing and/or managing such early hip-hop artists as Kurtis Blow, Run DMC, Will Smith and the Beastie Boys to signing seminal luminaries like Jay Z, LL Cool J and Ludacris to his iconic record label, Def Jam Recordings, Simmons’ groundbreaking vision and the cultural revolution became the international phenomenon now known as hip-hop. Following his departure from Def Jam, in 1999, Russell created a fashion empire in Phat Farm, which begat Baby Phat and Run Athletics, and put the definitive stake in the ground for urban streetwear, to which others followed including: Roc-A-Wear, Sean John, Derion, Enyce, Ecko and many others. His film and television production company with partner Stan Lathan, Simmons Lathan Media Group, created the wildly successful HBO series, “Def Comedy Jam “ (8 million DVDS sold), “Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry,” and “HBO Presents Brave New Voices,” the Hollywood box office success “The Nutty Professor,” the Tony Award-winning stage production “Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry Jam on Broadway,” the international hit on MTV “Run’s House,” and most recently the successful first season of “Running Russell Simmons.” In 2003, Simmons co-founded Unirush Financial Services with consumer debt investor David Rosenberg.

  • From Page to Stage (Or Movie Or Song) Shakespeare’S Plays Were Meant to Be Performed (Heard) Rather Than Read
    From Page to Stage (or Movie or Song) Shakespeare’s plays were meant to be performed (heard) rather than read. Shakespeare is daunting! We suggest that students read one scene, break down the scene and then view the scene from a filmed version. Make sure to preview the filmed versions and check ratings for age appropriateness. Examples: Richard III: Richard III staring and directed by Laurence Olivier, 1955; Richard III with Ian McKellan, 1995; Looking for Richard with Al Pacino, 1996. Hamlet: Hamlet with Laurence Olivier, 1948; Hamlet with Mel Gibson, 1990; Rosencranz and Guildenstern are Dead by Tom Stoppard, 1996; Hamlet with Kenneth Branagh, 1996. Macbeth: Throne of Blood by Akira Kurosawa, 1957; Macbeth by Roman Polanski, 1973. Romeo and Juliet: West Side Story, 1961; Romeo and Juliet by Franco Zeffirelli, 1968; Romeo + Juliet by Baz Lurman, 1968; Shakespeare in Love, 1999. A Midsummer Night’s Dream: A Midsummer Night’s Dream by Peter Hall,1968; A Midsummer Night’s Dream by Michael Hoffman with Kevin Kline and Michelle Pfeiffer, 1999 Likewise, Hip Hop is meant to be heard rather than read. Most Hip Hop songs tell a story. Ask students to bring in their favorite Hip Hop songs with accompanying lyrics. Distribute the lyrics to the class and talk about the story. Then listen to the selection with music and discuss how the music contributes to the artistry of the piece. (Note: You may want to specify that students bring radio versions of songs and pre-screen for content and language.) Love I start to think, and then I sink Tryin to find

  • Saturday, September 23, 2017 Letter from the Presenting Sponsor
    present the Environmental Media Awards Celebrating OUTSTANDING achievement within the ENTERTAINMENT and ENVIRONMENTAL communities #EMAAWARDS Saturday, September 23, 2017 Letter from the presenting sponsor Good evening ladies and gentleman, On behalf of Toyota and Lexus, welcome to the 27th annual Environmental Media Awards! Tonight we are honored to serve as presenting sponsors and celebrate the 17th anniversary of our partnership with the Environmental Media Association. Over the past 17 years, we’ve helped honor the thought leaders that inspire millions to lead more environmentally conscious lives. Tonight we continue to celebrate the efforts of the entertainment industry and celebrities that shape our culture. After all these years, we are still inspired by EMA’s efforts to promote environmental awareness using the powerful medium of entertainment. Tonight we’ve brought an inspiring vehicle line up to the party. The 2017 Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell vehicle returns to the green carpet. As one of the world’s first mass-produced hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles, the Toyota Mirai is a four-door, mid- size sedan with performance that fully competes with traditional internal combustion engines – but uses no gasoline. Instead, Mirai creates electricity on demand using hydrogen, oxygen and a fuel cell, and emits nothing but water vapor in the process. Lexus is excited to showcase its all-new hybrid luxury sedan, the LS 500h. With smooth power and an estimated 33 miles per gallon on the highway, it has a range of more than 600 miles of luxurious driving. On sale in February 2018 with a starting price around $80,000, the LS 500h will be the luxury sedan of choice for environmentally minded drivers.

  • ON the RECORD: a Conversation with Directors Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering
    ON THE RECORD Directed by Kirby Dick & Amy Ziering USA / 2020 / 97 mins Press Contacts Sales Contact - UTA Ryan Mazie, 609-410-2067 Rena Ronson, [email protected] [email protected] SYNOPSIS With their groundbreaking films on sexual assault in the military (The Invisible War) and on college campuses (The Hunting Ground), directors Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering shook the established view of sexual assault in America, moving it from an isolated “he said-she said” narrative to a sweeping indictment of systemic violence and rape culture. Now, in the #MeToo era that their films helped to usher in, comes ON THE RECORD, their third documentary in the trilogy. A searing examination of the costs of coming forward, the film follows Drew Dixon as she wrestles with the decision to go public and share her story with the NYTimes. ON THE RECORD takes you into the world of Def Jam Records in the ‘90s, where Dixon was a rising star in an industry rife with misogyny and sexual harassment. As Dixon recounts in the film, from her first day on the job, she managed to deflect and move past ongoing harassment, until she was wholly caught off guard one fateful night and brutally accosted by Simmons. More than two decades later, ON THE RECORD documents the devastating toll this recounted act exacted not only on Drew’s life but on the lives of several other women who describe having been assaulted by Simmons. Deeply illuminating and packed with powerful and revelatory insights, ON THE RECORD’s narrative tale is punctuated by interviews with prominent black thought leaders, activists, journalists and academics, who speak about the unique binds African-American women face when dealing with sexual violence in a society still plagued by racism.
