It is the state's water planning and water project fmancing agency. The TWDB's main responsibilities are threefold: (1) collecting and disseminating water-related data; (2) assisting with regional water planning, and preparing the State Water Plan for the development of the state's water resources; and (3) administering cost-effective fmancial assistance programs for the construction of water supply, wastewater treatment, flood control and agricultural water conservation projects. Texas is one the nation's fastest growing states. From 1950 to 2005, population in the state grew from about 8 million to nearly 23 million. According to projections, the number of people living in Texas will reach 33 million by 2030 and 45 million by 2060. Most growth is expected to occur in the Rio Grande region and in urban areas surrounding Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, San Antonio and Austin. Rapid growth combined with Texas' susceptibility to drought makes water supply a crucial issue. One of the most pressing concerns is whether existing water supplies will sustain economic and demographic growth, and provide ample water during times of drought. Inadequate water supplies would likely curtail economic activity in business and industries heavily reliant on water. Unreliable water supplies would not only have an immediate and real impact on business and industry, but they might also bias corporate decision makers against plant expansion or plant location in Texas. Thus, ensuring that Texas communities have abundant and dependable water supplies is crucial for the state's economic security. Since the drought of the mid-1990s, a number of actions have occurred to keep water issues in the forefront. Senate Billl, passed by the 75th Legislature, changed the way Texas Plans for the future water needs ofthe state. State agencies, political subdivisions, and Regional Water Planning Groups have assumed increased responsibility for ensuring sufficient water supplies for the state. In 2001, the 77th Texas Legislature enacted Senate Bill2, creating new fmancial assistance programs designed to fmance water supply projects recommended by the State Water Plan.

  • Quebrando Recordes E Paradigmas: Como Superar As Expectativas De Uma Indústria Em Declínio – O Caso Taylor Swift
    UNIVERSIDADE FEDERAL DO PARANÁ ALINE LOPES DA SILVA CANDÉO QUEBRANDO RECORDES E PARADIGMAS: COMO SUPERAR AS EXPECTATIVAS DE UMA INDÚSTRIA EM DECLÍNIO – O CASO TAYLOR SWIFT TRABALHO DE CONCLUSÃO DE CURSO Curitiba 2015 ALINE LOPES DA SILVA CANDÉO QUEBRANDO RECORDES E PARADIGMAS: COMO SUPERAR AS EXPECTATIVAS DE UMA INDÚSTRIA EM DECLÍNIO – O CASO TAYLOR SWIFT Trabalho apresentado como requisito parcial à obtenção do grau de Bacharel em Comunicação Social com ênfase em Publicidade e Propaganda no curso de graduação em Comunicação Social – Publicidade e Propaganda, Setor de Artes, Comunicação e Design da Universidade Federal do Paraná. Orientador: Prof. Aryovaldo de Castro Azevedo Junior CURITIBA 2015 AGRADECIMENTOS À minha família, pela compreensão e paciência que tiveram durante o período em que levei para concluir este trabalho. Aos meus amigos, que me apoiaram e serviram de cobaias quando precisei que alguém fizesse uma leitura atrás de erros e que fornecessem sugestões. Ao meu orientador, Prof. Ary Azevedo, pelas dicas e conselhos que auxiliaram no norteamento do trabalho. RESUMO A indústria fonográfica passa por dificuldades. Seu período áureo foi nos anos 2000, mas a partir do momento que a internet se popularizou, as vendas de álbuns começaram a cair graças ao crescimento da pirataria. Agora, a indústria fonográfica corre para se adaptar ao mercado. Serviços de assinatura estão no meio da discussão sobre o futuro: Agradam os consumidores, com opções de conteúdo gratuito e pago, mas também causam divergência entre artistas, produtores, compositores e executivos que afirmam que os termos dos acordos ainda não são ideais para manter a indústria em equilíbrio. Este trabalho se propõe a analisar o caso de uma exceção da indústria: ao vender mais de um milhão de cópias na semana de lançamento dos seus três últimos álbuns, Taylor Swift estabeleceu uma marca sem precedentes.

  • DPW Weekly Update October 7 – October 13, 2019
    301 Broad Street Fitchburg, MA 01420 Phone: 978-829-1900 DPW Weekly Update October 7 – October 13, 2019 Dear Mayor, Councilors, and Colleagues: On Tuesday October 8th, I had the great privilege of accompanying Mayor DiNatale to Beacon Hill to testify in front of the Joint Committee on Transportation regarding local funding levels included in Governor Baker’s $18 Billion transportation bond bill (H. 4002). The Mayor and I were part of the Massachusetts Municipal Association’s (MMA) panel conveying the message that Chapter 90 funding levels are insufficient to maintain local roadways in a state of good repair. The MMA’s biennial survey shows that municipalities need to spend $685 million annually to maintain roadways, compared to the current $200 million per year Chapter 90 funding levels. The MMA continues to advocate for $300 million per year funding levels indexed to inflation. The $18 Billion bond bill currently only includes $490 Million (less than 3%) for municipal transportation including funding for the Complete Streets, Small Bridge, and Municipal Pavement Partnership Programs. Mayor DiNatale and I spoke to the Joint Committee regarding the state of disrepair of our local roadways and the need to increase the Chapter 90 funding levels significantly to meet local needs. We also reiterated that the Mayor allocates an average of $650,000 per year from the city’s budget towards roadway repairs and related equipment to supplement the $1.12 Million in Chapter 90 funds. However, in order to bring our roadways and sidewalks to acceptable levels, we would require at least a four-fold increase in transportation funding.

From American Bandstand to Total Request Live : Teen Culture and Identity on Music Television Kaylyn Toale American Studies Senior Thesis Fall 2010 Prof. Amy Aronson, Prof. Edward Cahill Toale 1 “When we started the show… there weren’t any teenagers,” remarked Dick Clark to The Washington Post in 1977. “They were just miniatures of their parents. They didn’t have their own styles. They didn’t have their own music. They didn’t have their own money. And now, of course, the whole world is trying to be a kid.” 1 The show to which he refers, of course, is American Bandstand, which paved the way for Total Request Live (TRL) and other television shows which aimed to distribute popular music to young audiences. Here, Dick Clark situates the intersection of music and television as an entity that provides great insight into the social dynamics, the media experience, and the very existence of teenagers in the United States.

  • [MARK: Place #2 at the End of the Essay Writing Section]
    Assignment: Write an essay in which you explain something that many people misunderstand or misperceive. Use information, explanation, and argument to correct their misunderstanding. In Defense of “That Jazz Crap” by Becky Klosowski The arguments between my siblings and me over the radio in my mother’s minivan are enormously vicious. When forced to ride somewhere together, we tear one another’s throats out over who gets her pick of the music we all must listen to and—in all honesty—survive: my brother’s classic rock and alternative, my sister’s rap and the latest number one on MTV’s Total Request, and my jazz. “How can you listen to that crap?” my sister moans when I win the front seat and control of the station. “Turn that crap off!” my brother shouts. “We don’t have to listen to anything; let’s just talk…” (“That Crap” has become the working title of my music within my family, and so accustomed to this title am I that I find myself calling jazz “that crap” when talking to other people as well, even fellow jazz fans. Oops.) On one such occasion, I granted my brother’s wish, turning the radio off and the conversation on to jazz to compensate. “Why do you guys hate this stuff so much?” I asked. “Why do you have any opinion at all?” “Why do you care?” my brother returned. “Why do you always try to force that crap on us?” “You do force,” my mother added. Thanks, mom. It was the conversation that followed that inspired me to consider my opinion: Why do I care? I’d never really thought about it before.
