At EY, we’re proud to support Cristo Rey Jesuit High School. It’s one of the ways we’re helping to make our community a better place to work and live. A better and brighter future starts with all of us. Visit ey.com © 2020 Ernst & Young LLP. All Rights Reserved. EDNone Reserved. All Rights LLP. & Young © 2020 Ernst Welcome! Welcome to the second Rey of Hope Gala – a celebration of our most generous donors and our fearless leader, Bill Garrett. Tonight is also a celebration of the 525 students we have the honor to serve every day. These extraordinary young people make us proud as they travel the city to work in their corporate jobs, and as their remarkable achievements in the classroom. Their youth brings energy, creativity and a fresh perspective to our 132 corporate jobs partners. This year’s senior class will graduate in May, joining the 237 alumni who have gone before them, and 100% of them have been accepted into college. Our graduates attend some of the country’s most prestigious colleges, and this year we have our first student heading to an Ivy League college in the fall. It is humbling to think of how far this school has come in just six years. It is safe to say that all that has been accomplished would not have been possible without the leadership of Bill Garrett and the support of everyone here tonight. We want to especially thank Janet & Jim Cumming, Mary & Bob Fink, and Jenny & Mike Messner, who are being honored this evening for their overwhelming generosity and for their faith in the mission of the school. Their early support was crucial to our success. We hope you enjoy the evening celebrating all that makes Cristo Rey Atlanta Jesuit such a magical place and please know how much we appreciate the part YOU have played in making it so.

  • Atlanta Braves Clippings Thursday, September 10, 2020 Braves.Com
    Atlanta Braves Clippings Thursday, September 10, 2020 Braves.com Braves set NL standard with 29-run outburst Atlanta breaks Modern Era record in National League (since 1900) By Mark Bowman ATLANTA -- Adam Duvall produced his second three-homer game within an eight-day span to help the Braves roll to a record-setting 29-9 win over the Marlins on Wednesday night at Truist Park. Duvall became the first player to record two three-homer games while wearing a Braves uniform, and his efforts helped Atlanta set a National League record for runs in a game in the modern era (since 1900). “That was pretty amazing to be a part of,” Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman said. “I’ve never seen an offense click like that.” The Braves fell just one run short of tying the modern record for runs scored in a game, set when the Rangers defeated the Orioles, 30-3, in the first game of a doubleheader on Aug. 22, 2007, at Camden Yards. Dating back to 1900, no NL club had scored more than 28 runs in a game. The Braves’ franchise record was 23, a mark tallied during the second game of a doubleheader against the Cubs on Sept. 2, 1957. Ronald Acuña Jr. contributed to his three-hit night with a three-run home run to cap a six-run fifth. But it was his bases-loaded double in the sixth inning that gave the Braves a new franchise record for runs in a single game, opening a 25-8 lead. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Atlanta became the first MLB team to score at least 22 runs through the first five innings since the Blue Jays (24 runs) in a win over the Orioles on June 26, 1978.

Finally, I would like to thank the support and contributions of my peers in the Economic and Social History Senior Thesis class. 4 Abstract The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the impact of city policy changes and the processes of gentrification on 1980s nightlife subculture in New York City. What are important to this work are the contributions and influence of nightlife subculture to greater New York City history through fashion, music, and art. I intend to prove that, in combination with the city’s gradual revanchism of neighborhood properties, the self-destructive nature of this after-hours sector has led to its own demise.

  • The Ways of Waffle House
    The Bitter Southerner Podcast: The Ways of Waffle House Chuck Reece: 00:04 It's the Bitter Southerner podcast from Georgia Public Broadcasting, and the magazine I edit, the Bitter Southerner. Welcome to Episode Five of our second season. I'm Chuck Reece, and today we take you to a place that is familiar to every Southerner. The Waffle House. 00:21 (singing) Chuck Reece: 00:35 Yeah, we even sing about The Waffle House. (singing) And every Southerner has their Waffle House memories. Many are from late nights, and they might be blurry in the brain, because Waffle House is, after all, a place where the night owls go before they crawl in bed and hide from the sun. 01:14 (singing) Chuck Reece: 01:34 Many other of our Waffle House memories are from childhood, because every Southern kid will be taken to a Waffle House at some point. It took about five seconds for us to see this phenomenon one more time, on the day we walked into Waffle House store number 1000 in Avondale Estates, Georgia, with a bag full of microphones. Samantha Naik: 01:54 You want to answer some questions about The Waffle House? Chuck Reece: 01:56 This is Samantha Naik, and her daughter, Annika. Samantha Naik: 01:59 Well, she's only four, so she's been coming for four years, and I've been coming for as long as I have memories. Chuck Reece: 02:07 Sam lives around the corner from the very first Waffle House. It's now a museum and it's just down the block from the store that we're in today.

  • Chapter 9: Neighborhood Character
    Chapter 9: Neighborhood Character A. INTRODUCTION As defined by the City Environmental Quality Review (CEQR) Technical Manual, neighborhood character is considered to be a combination of the many elements that creates each neighborhood’s distinct personality. These elements include land use, urban design, visual resources, historic resources, socioeconomics, traffic, and noise, as well as the other physical or social characteristics that help to describe the community. According to the CEQR Technical Manual, an assessment of neighborhood character is generally needed when the action would exceed preliminary thresholds in any one of the following areas of technical analysis: land use, urban design and visual resources, historic resources, socioeconomic conditions, transportation, or noise. An assessment is also appropriate when the action would have moderate effects on several of the aforementioned areas. Potential effects on neighborhood character may include: • Land Use. Development resulting from a proposed action could alter neighborhood character if it introduced new land uses, conflicts with land use policy or other public plans for the area, changes land use character, or generates significant land use impacts. • Socioeconomic Conditions. Changes in socioeconomic conditions have the potential to affect neighborhood character when they result in substantial direct or indirect displacement or addition of population, employment, or businesses; or substantial differences in population or employment density. • Historic Resources. When an action would result in substantial direct changes to a historic resource or substantial changes to public views of a resource, or when a historic resource analysis identified a significant impact in this category, there is a potential to affect neighborhood character. • Urban Design and Visual Resources.
