Gracie Mueller seems like an average person. Married, mother of two. Owns a house with her husband, Randy, in upstate New York. Life is balanced and (relatively) honest. But she has a lot to hide—she's not even a US citizen—and when Randy's failing career as a real estate agent makes finances tight, he leaves town for a better job, their home goes into foreclosure, and Gracie turns back to the creatively illegal lifestyle of her past to keep things afloat for her kids. After all, how many times can a woman lose everything? An expert in fake identities, she sbecome Tracey Bueller, who later becomes Mariana DeFelice. She's an architect and a designer, a musician and an actress. After a deadly stint upstate when a friend asks too many questions, she leaves town for New York City, finding her way into the best school in Manhattan for her kids, where she gets a job as the drama teacher. -
"Licensing Music Works and Transaction Costs in Europe”
"Licensing music works and transaction costs in Europe” Final study September 2012 1 Acknowledgements: KEA would like to thank Google, the internet services company, for financing which made this study possible. The study was carried out independently and reflects the views of KEA alone. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Establishing and running online music services is a complex task, raising both technical and legal difficulties. This is particularly the case in Europe, where complex rights licensing structures hinder the development of the market and the launch of new innovative online services. Compared to the US, Europe is lagging behind in terms of digital music revenue. Furthermore, the development of the market is fairly disparate among different countries in the European Union. This study aims to identify and analyse transaction costs in music licensing. It examines the online music markets and outlines the licensing processes faced by online services. It offers a qualitative and quantitative analysis of transaction costs in the acquisition of the relevant rights by online music services. The study also suggests different ways of decreasing transaction costs. The research focuses on three countries (the UK, Spain and the Czech Republic) and builds on data collected through a survey with online music service providers available in the three countries as well as interviews with relevant stakeholders in the field of music licensing. THE EUROPEAN ONLINE MUSIC MARKET The music industry has steadily expanded over the past few years, away from selling CDs towards selling music online or through concerts and live music. (Masnick, Ho, 2012). Among the 500 licensed online music services in the world (according to IFPI), many emulate the physical record store, by offering ‘download to own’ tracks at a similar price point. -

The United Church of Canada in Canadian Literature by Elizabeth A. Hogan A Thesis Submitted to Atlantic School of Theology, Halifax, Nova Scotia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master Arts in Theology and Religious Studies March 1, 2016 Copyright Elizabeth A. Hogan, 2016 Approved: _________________________________ Rev. Dr. Robert Fennell Approved: _________________________________ Dr. Russell Perkin Approved: _________________________________ Rev. Dr. Hallett Llewellyn Date: ___________________________ The United Church of Canada in Canadian Literature Elizabeth A. Hogan Thesis Abstract This thesis traces the relationship of The United Church of Canada to the development of Canadian national identity in the years prior to Church Union, and in the first forty years of the denomination's history, with particular attention to the literary witness to this relationship manifest in a number of key works of Canadian literature. Major historical events and trends are surveyed in the history of the country and denomination in each of three historical periods -- from Confederation to Church Union, the Depression and Second World War, and 1945-1965 -- followed by an analysis of the way in which references to the United Church in various novels of each period reveal and reflect the denomination's changing influence on and relationship to Canadian identity. March 1, 2016 i Submitted with Thanks to Rev. Dr. Rob Fennell, Supervisor, for his manifestations of diligence (in reading, commenting, and correcting footnotes), temperance (and unshakeable calm), trust (that this would happen), usefulness (in offering excellent advice); and for his commitment to education and service (to which the existence of this thesis bears witness). -

Project, State University of New York, College at Oswego. PUB TYPE DissertaLions/Theses Masters Theses (042) Reference Materials Bibliographies (131) Tests/Evaluation Instruments (160) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Annotated Bibliographies; *Chilclrens Literature; *Content Area Reading; Elementary Education; *Elementary School Curriculum; *Multicultural Education IDENTIFIERS *Multicultural Materials; *Trade Books ABSTRACT As teachers incorporate multiculturalism into the curriculum and continue with a literature-based approach, the need to identify multicultural literature becomes greater. Based on this teaching method and the incorporation of multiculturalism, an effective tool to help teachers is an annotated bibliography of multicultural content-area trade books. With a bibliography such as this, teachers are able to incorporate multicultural literature in all areas of the elementary curriculum. A project to develop such a bibliography began by identifing criteria used to select titles. Violet Harris's definition of multicultural literature provided the concise description needed. The second stage if the project was to identify titles to review and compare against the criteria. Titles were identified through journal articles, bibliographies, and browsing library shelves. Approximately 175 titles were read and compared against the criteria and a decision made whether to include them in the annotated bibliography. Finally, a draft copy of the annotated bibliography was given to five elementary teachers for their review. Based on their comments, suggested grade levels were added to each bibliographic entry. Appendixes present the 175-item annotated bibliography of multicultural content-area trade books published between 1985 and 1995, an introduction letter to reviewers, a survey instrument for teachers, and a survey instrument for librarians. -
