The Policy addresses the procedures for compliance, and of organizations available to perform prairie dog removal. Furthermore, the Policy states that no Development Permits will be issued for development applications until the developer documents good faith efforts to relocate prairie dogs from the land slated for development. The City currently requires developers to submit a letter outlining actions taken in good faith to relocate prairie dog colonies from the development site, including the results of those efforts. When good faith efforts reveal that relocation is possible, the developer is expected to relocate the prairie dogs, in conformance with Division of Wildlife policies, from the land slated for development. If good faith efforts reveal that relocation is not feasible, the developer may exterminate the prairie dogs through those extermination methods permitted by the Colorado Department of Agriculture. Regulation Comparison Staff researched several other municipalities in the Denver area to determine how the City’s current ordinance compares in practice with that of other jurisdictions. A summary of this comparative analysis is provided in the attached Exhibit B. Among the findings, you will notice that most jurisdictions do not have codified prairie dog control regulations, and instead operate by policy. In most cases, prairie dog relocation is a preferred first step of mitigation, but ultimately lethal control is allowed. From there, findings vary on specific methods of allowable use of toxicants and/or lethal control.

  • Disability Housing Rights and Building Codes in New York
    DISABILITY HOUSING RIGHTS AND BUILDING CODES OF NEW YORK by The Committee on Legal Issues Affecting People with Disabilities* A. INTRODUCTION People with disabilities are protected against housing discrimination on the basis of mental or physical disability by a series of federal, state, and local human rights and civil rights laws. These laws include Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act,1 the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA),2 the Fair Housing Act (FHA),3 the New York State Human Rights Law (NYSHRL),4 and the New York City Human Rights Law (NYCHRL).5 Not only are people with disabilities protected from discrimination, they are also entitled to certain accommodations so that they can use and enjoy their homes. These various human and civil rights laws have corollary building standards, which are enumerated in the various sections below. There are essential distinctions between the two, as well as amongst the federal, state and city human rights laws with regard to definition of disability, remedies, geographic scope, procedures and who has standing to enforce them which the practitioner and claimant must pay close attention to. Because so many different laws protect the housing rights of people with disabilities, an individual who believes his or her rights have been violated must look at the various provisions of the different laws and determine which laws apply and what protections are available. For example, an individual with a disability who rents an apartment from a private landlord6 in New York City and requests that a ramp be built at the entrance is covered by the FHA, NYSHRL and the NYCHRL.

  • Blackness”: “Post-Black” and Contemporary Hip-Hop in Visual Culture
    Transforming “Blackness”: “Post-Black” and Contemporary Hip-Hop in Visual Culture A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts April J. Sunami August 2008 2 This thesis titled Transforming “Blackness”: “Post-Black” and Contemporary Hip-Hop in Visual Culture by APRIL J. SUNAMI has been approved for the School of Art and the College of Fine Arts by Jeanette Klein Chair, Art History and Scholarship Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 Abstract SUNAMI, APRIL J., M.A., August 2008, Art History Transforming “Blackness”: “Post-Black” and Contemporary Hip-Hop in Visual Culture (90 pp.) Director of Thesis: Jeanette Klein The global phenomenon of hip-hop emerged as a small scale community oriented culture developed primarily by African-American youth in the blighted ghetto of the South Bronx. Within the larger American culture, the primary associations of hip-hop are rooted in conceptions of black culture and identity, which may also be defined as “blackness.” Despite hip-hop’s synonymous relationship to “blackness,” mainstream American culture and almost every nation on earth have appropriated its visual and aural codes. Interestingly, the adoption of hip-hop culture out of its original context lends to new conceptions of “blackness,” that ultimately complicate the centrality of racial significance. In a similar manner, the term “post-black” has been used within visual arts to describe the work of black artists who problematize past conceptions of “blackness.” The main goal of this thesis is to argue that the transformation of “blackness” in hip-hop is directly applicable to the idea of “post-black.” Approved: _____________________________________________________________ Jeanette Klein Chair, Art History and Scholarship 4 Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor Jennie Klein and to my committee members Marion Lee and Marina Peterson for their patience and guidance through this project.

Official Website: natewhitemusic.com Facebook: facebook.com/natewhitemusic Twitter: twitter.com/NateWhiteMusic1 Instagram: natewhiteupclose Youtube: Nate White RAMP RAMP is an American soul/jazz band from Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. The band's name stands for "Roy Ayers Music Productions" but Ayers was not a member, though he did write and produce songs on their album. The group released one album, Come Into Knowledge (1977), subsequently considered a classic among rare-groove collectors, artists (such as PM Dawn and A Tribe Called Quest who have used RAMP samples in their music) and Roy Ayers fans. Featuring the vocals of Sharon Matthews Salter and Sibel Thrasher, the album was recorded in New York City and California. The group was a vehicle for the songwriting talents of Ayers and Edwin Birdsong. Released in 1977, the set featured a version of Ayers' "Everybody Loves The Sunshine" along with the 'rare groove' track "Daylight". The LP release of the album commands very high prices. The album was eventually re-released on CD in 2007. The group split up shortly afterwards, but reformed in 2006 for new tours and recordings.

  • Roy Ayers Album Download Zip You Send Me
    roy ayers album download zip You Send Me. With 1978's You Send Me, Roy Ayers added vocalist Carla Vaughn to his band Ubiquity. Vaughn, who is featured on several selections, never became a big name in the R&B world, but showed some promise on this LP. When she hits the high notes, Vaughn has a Deniece Williams-ish appeal -- and she proves to be an asset to Ayers when she sings lead on "I Want to Touch You Baby," the hypnotic "Can't You See Me," and a lush remake of Sam Cooke's "You Send Me." While Cooke's original 1957 version was pure doo wop, Ayers' sexy interpretation has a lot of quiet storm appeal. The gems that don't feature Benson at all include the funky "It Ain't Your Sign, It's Your Mind" and the disco-influenced "Get On Up, Get On Down," which didn't receive much radio airplay, but enjoyed its share of dance club exposure. Like other albums that Ayers recorded in the late '70s, You Send Me won't interest jazz purists but is rightly considered a classic by soul and funk enthusiasts. all that jazz. One of the greatest Roy Ayers albums of all time. The record is right in the same vein as Roy's groundbreaking He's Coming LP -- a righteous mix of soul jazz, subtle funk, and some of the cosmic wisdom that Roy was spreading among the jazz funk underground -- all wrapped up beautifully, but never in a way that's like commercial soul of the time.
