The Committee met, pursuant to notice, at 10:04 a.m. in room SD–562, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Ted Stevens, Chairman of the Committee, presiding. OPENING STATEMENT OF HON. TED STEVENS, U.S. SENATOR FROM ALASKA The CHAIRMAN. Thank you all for coming. Senator Inouye and I announced a series of hearings, 15 in total, dealing with issues re- lated to communications. We are going to have a continuation of the forum we started in the past, back in November, and at that time we had family groups, broadcasters, cable, satellite, radio, TV, artists, and videogaming representatives. That forum was for the purpose of exploring what we could do to stimulate some voluntary action, because it is my opinion that we could go for the hard man- dates. But if we did opt for the hard mandates, those would be held up in court, and it would take years before changes, which the American public and family demand, take place. So, I am pleased that the industry has responded. We are going to hear today about some of the solutions in terms of family tier offerings. I will leave it to you gentlemen to announce what those are, but very clearly what we have seen—yesterday I went down and visited the demonstration of some of these new technologies, particularly the V-Chip and the blocking technology. From my point of view, the industry and Jack Valenti personally are to be commended for their efforts to make it easier for parents to control what their children watch. I think that is the basic objec- tive right now. I understand we are going to hear today about a new initiative to educate parents on how they can really govern what their children watch and that they have the tools to do that if they can learn how to use them. That initiative, also, we will be pleased to hear about today. There are still people who believe that mandatory legislation may be necessary, and we are here today to hear from different groups about what has happened so far and what further legisla- tion they may be interested in. We are going to have to work with Members of our Committee to develop a bipartisan consensus to get a bill to the floor as soon as we can. These hearings will help us determine the outlines of legislation that will be acceptable and (1) VerDate 0ct 09 2002 12:35 Sep 05, 2006 Jkt 029472 PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 6633 Sfmt 6633 S:\WPSHR\GPO\DOCS\29472.TXT JACKF PsN: JACKF 2 will advance the concepts that have already been explored, particu- larly by Senators Brownback, Rockefeller, Wyden, and others.

SCHOOL CAMPUS - NIGHT SUPER: Los Angeles. 1997. Black clouds loom on the horizon, the moon’s soft glow illuminates the street below. THREE MASKED TEENAGERS dressed in all black emerge from the bushes. They dart across the street, climb over the chain link fence and trespass onto a small high school campus. We see a sign that says: TJ TAYLOR’S ACADEMY FOR LEARNING. TEENAGER #1 shakes a red spray paint canister, tags the cement building. TJ TAYLOR (V.O.) (tape recording) Man is a curious monster. You see, man is the most self-destructive thing there is in the whole universe.

  • Song & Music in the Movement
    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

  • Chuck Richardson
    BlazeVOX 2k7 an online journal of voice Fall 2007 Chuck Richardson 4. Digressions On A Recurring Dream 6,898 words, 4 percent passive, 71 percent reading ease. It is blistering elsewhere, yet not here as two-dozen friends gather poolside. A hazy skyline shimmering a mirage fogs via remote control dreams of glassy, urban sophistication. The illusion resonates pulp, swimming the couple’s trust in a cultivated hereafter. Do you Jonah, take this woman, Linda, to be your lawful wedded wife? A family court judge and ace trombonist is presiding. He’s sixty and serious, calmly leading the couple through the ritual, just as they’d rehearsed it, with the about-to- be newlyweds standing nude on the diving board, hovering over the deep end. Neither can swim, but their naked friends have rehearsed saving them. I do. And do you, Linda, take this man, Jonah, to be your lawful wedded husband? If so, answer I do. She looks over Jonah, realizing she’s given up hope for someone sexier. Expectations duly lowered, she imagines the one who ditched her standing in Jonah’s place. He, for his part, cannot fathom his good fortune. Linda’s much younger than he, more attractive, even sexy once you get to know her. She’s also mysterious. He feels, much to his obvious excitement, that she’s reading him like a book, her eyes perusing every fold, every gray hair, each blemish and scar—from the inside-out through his eyes. Eye-to-eye exposure is plainly titillating him. I do, she answers, at last, having finished the run-on sentence fragment of material phenomena called fiancé, now husband.

Understanding The Role Of Family Management In Ethnically Diverse Children With Adhd From Urban Philadelphia Abstract Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurodevelopmental condition of childhood. Prior research shows improvement in ADHD outcomes with parental and family engagement. What is less known, however, is how caregivers from diverse families manage childhood ADHD on a daily basis and how family management factors correlate with child functioning. Guided by the family management framework, the purpose of this study was to understand how ethnically diverse caregivers manage childhood ADHD in their everyday lives and how family management is related to children’s level of functional impairment. This mixed methods study used a concurrent nested design (QUAL [quan]) to independently analyze and integrate cross-sectional qualitative and quantitative data from caregivers of children with ADHD recruited from diverse families living in urban Philadelphia (N=50). Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted to explore how caregivers managed ADHD in their everyday lives and identified barriers and facilitators of family management.
