Iowa Arts, Entertainment and Recreation 2017 IOWA Industry Profile Arts, Entertainment & recreation IOWA Workforce Development Executive Summary In 2016, the Arts, Entertainment and Recreation sector provided 21,430 jobs to Iowans, which represents 1.4 percent of all covered employment (both private and public sector) in the state. This sector reported an average annual wage of $17,994, which is just 40.1 percent of the average wage across all industries in the state, $44,925.. Since peaking in 2007, employment in this sector declined 11.8 percent to its lowest point in 2013, but has since started to slowly increase, with a jump in 2016 to 21,430 in employment, showing encouraging signs in growth as seen circa 2007. The average annual wage has fluctuated over the last decade between a high of $18,705 in 2010 to a low of $17,409 in 2013 to it’s current level at $17,994. The lower wage in 2010 is reminiscent of 2007, with a similarly high employment, possibly indicating an increase in hiring in lower paying positions. The rise in employment can be attributed to a comfortable consumer with more disposable money for luxuries and entertainment. Wages are significantly lower in Iowa than in the nation as a whole. Iowans in the private sector of this industry made just under half of the national average wage of $36,806. Furthermore, Iowa’s private sector wages are much lower than the other states in the region too, with the exception of the Dakotas, Nebraska and Kansas. https://www.iowaworkforcedevelopment.gov/labor-market-information-division Arts, entertainment & recreation Iowa Industry Profile What are Arts, Entertainment and 2016 Industry Breakout by Employment in Iowa Recreation?

In this surrogate village, certain buildings have only a particular set of uses and users, so students are constantly moving around to find the av rious places, spaces, and faces that offer them the knowledge, rest, sustenance, and entertainment they need—ideally a little bit of each, conveniently offered in various locations, throughout their day.

  • Benefits of a Strong Parks and Recreation System
    A STRONG PARK AND RECREATION SYSTEM IS ESSENTIAL FOR A THRIVING COMMUNITY Four out of five North Americans use their local recreation and park system. 70% have a park or recreation facility within walking distance of their home. Our parks are such a stable influence on our lives that we tend not to give them much thought. But our effective parks and recreation facilities do not just happen on their own. They require professional care and financial support to keep them clean, safe and suitable for the community they serve. HEALTH BENEFITS: Access to parks and recreation facilities leads to healthy lifestyles for people of all ages. Strong evidence shows that when people have access to parks, they exercise more. Every time sedentary people walk a mile, they add 21 minutes to their life. On average, every hour you spend exercising increases your life expectancy by two hours. Exercise increases the brain’s capacity for learning. ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS: Parks, open spaces and trails play a key role in preserving water and air quality, reducing congestion and protecting wildlife. Through the provision of parks, open spaces and protected natural environment, recreation can contribute to the environmental health of our communities. Trail and pathway systems save energy and protect air quality by encouraging non-motorized transportation. COMMUNITY BENEFITS: Parks and Recreation sources give communities a vital identity. Well- maintained, accessible parks and recreation facilities are key elements of strong, safe, family-friendly communities. When citizens get involved with their parks and recreation systems, their quality of life improves. Parks and recreation opportunities encourage citizens to be engaged in their communities – as volunteers, stewards, advocates and students.

  • ENGL 864* Topics in Modernism IV: Modernism in Literature, Arts, and Entertainment
    ENGL 864* Topics in Modernism IV: Modernism in Literature, Arts, and Entertainment This is a draft syllabus. While texts are unlikely to be added, I am still working on whittling down the readings to an optimum amount per week, so a couple here or there may be subtracted or designated optional. This course will take us on a whirlwind tour across the jagged landscapes of modernist innovation, both avant-garde and popular—taking in literary fiction, poetry, drama, pulp genres (crime, horror, science fiction), comic strips and books, visual arts and architecture, music and dance. Our starting point will be current debates about the scope and meaning of the term modernism, followed by an exploration of its diverse formal experiments and social and intellectual concerns in the first half of the twentieth century. Evaluation is based on weekly micro-analyses, a seminar presentation, a research prospectus (ungraded) and a research paper. Schedule 1. Introduction, Part 1: Music (What Is Modernism?) Criticism: Ross, The Rest is Noise 36-49, 60-66, 80-85, 130-170 Art: Listening to: Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Debussy Listening to: Jelly Roll Morton, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday 2.

  • Module-9 Background Prose Readings COMEDY and TRAGEDY
    Module-9 Background Prose Readings COMEDY AND TRAGEDY What is comedy? The word ‘Comedy’ has been derived the French word comdie, which in turn is taken from the Greeco-Latin word Comedia. The word comedia is made of two words komos, which means revel and aeidein means to sing. According to Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary, comedy means a branch of drama, which deals with everyday life and humourous events. It also means a play of light and amusing type of theatre. Comedy may be defined as a play with a happy ending. Function of Comedy Though, there are many functions of comedy, yet the most important and visible function of comedy is to provide entertainment to the readers. The reader is forced to laugh at the follies of various characters in the comedy. Thus, he feels jubilant and forgets the humdrum life. George Meredith, in his Idea of Comedy, is of the view that comedy appeals to the intelligence unadulterated and unassuming, and targets our heads. In other words, comedy is an artificial play and its main function is to focus attention on what ails the world. Comedy is critical, but in its scourge of folly and vice. There is no contempt or anger in a comedy. He is also of the view that the laughter of a comedy is impersonal, polite and very near to a smile. Comedy exposes and ridicules stupidity and immorality, but without the wrath of the reformer. Kinds of Comedy 1. Classical Comedy Classical comedy is a kind of comedy, wherein the author follows the classical rules of ancient Greek and Roman writers.

  • Resource-Based Outdoor Recreation
    Resource‐Based Outdoor Recreation Activity Definitions Outdoor recreation, broadly defined, is any leisure time activity conducted outdoors. Within the vast range of such a definition lies an almost unlimited number of possible activities, from wilderness camping to neighborhood playground use and outdoor performances. This wide range of activities can generally be subdivided into “resource‐ based” and “user‐oriented” recreation. Resource‐based outdoor recreation is dependent on a particular element or combination of elements in the natural and cultural environments that cannot be easily duplicated by man. In contrast, user‐ oriented recreation can generally be provided anywhere, assuming the availability of space and funds for development. This document provides activity definitions for a narrowed down list of outdoor recreation activities that are commonly provided on Florida’s conservation lands. Generally, many activities not included in this list can be grouped into one of the activity types that utilize the same resource. For the purpose of planning outdoor recreation, some commonly identified activities, such as walking for pleasure have been omitted entirely because of the inability to practically measure and plan for the resources needed to support the activity. Bicycling Horseback Riding Camping Hunting Canoeing/Kayaking Motorized – OHV Riding Freshwater and Saltwater Boating Nature Study Freshwater and Saltwater Fishing Picnicking Freshwater Swimming Saltwater Beach Activities Hiking Visiting Archeological and Historic Sites Bicycling Bicycling as a recreational activity is the simple act of riding a bicycle in an outdoor setting for the enjoyment, amusement, or pleasure of participation. Common bicycling activities are mountain biking, road cycling and bicycle touring. These activities differ from the utilitarian usage of bicycles for transportation, in that they are participated in for the enjoyment of natural and cultural resources.

    DOCUEENT RESUME ED 137 840 CS 501 619 AUTHOR. Busby, Linda J. -TITLE Myths, Symbols, Stereotypes: The ArtiSt end the Mass Media. PUB DATE Dec 76 NOTE 25p.; .Paper presented.at the Annual Meeting of the Speech Communication Association (62nd, San Francisco, December 1976) EDRS PRICE MF-$0.83 HC-$1,67 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Art Apprecation; *Art Expression; *Imagery; literature; *Mass Media; *Mythology; Social Influences; *Stereotypes; *Symbolism; Television; Values IDENTIFIERS *Popular Art ABSTRACT Every form of communication involves the use Of . myths, symbols, or stereotypes. Symbols have been used as instruments to measure artistic works-, from film to painting, from high literature to television'programs. Stereotypes are communication short-Cuts which allow communication to engert*T images without.the use of full description by the atist. Myths oedur in communication as the synthesis of a cultural history conveyed in majoritv:valnes and beliefs. Both high art and popular art utilize these images, but the ways that popular art uses them are affected direCtly by structure, social worth, and social mobility. High culture is'less to be limited in its utilization of .these images than is mass . culture because high art functions with fewer social restraints. Physical restraints on artistic output become obvious'when comparing creative techniques used in various media. Content can be viewed in terms of the physical and Social structure oi the medium, but there is also an important structural consideration in a work of popular . art itself. Most observers of popular art define the inherent structure of that art as formulaic. By more carefully examining these images in popular art, we can learn more about values in sbciety and, - about the various audiences to:whom a particular kind of popular art appeals.

  • The Essays of Arthur Schopenhauer; the Art of Controversy by Arthur Schopenhauer
    The Essays of Arthur Schopenhauer; The Art of Controversy by Arthur Schopenhauer The Essays of Arthur Schopenhauer; The Art of Controversy by Arthur Schopenhauer THE ESSAYS OF ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER: THE ART OF CONTROVERSY TRANSLATED BY T. BAILEY SAUNDERS, M.A. CONTENTS. THE ART OF CONTROVERSY-- 1. PRELIMINARY: LOGIC AND DIALECTIC 2. THE BASIS OF ALL DIALECTIC 3. STRATAGEMS ON THE COMPARATIVE PLACE OF INTEREST AND BEAUTY IN WORKS OF ART PSYCHOLOGICAL OBSERVATIONS ON THE WISDOM OF LIFE: APHORISMS GENIUS AND VIRTUE page 1 / 120 TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE. The volume now before the reader is a tardy addition to a series in which I have endeavoured to present Schopenhauer's minor writings in an adequate form. Its contents are drawn entirely from his posthumous papers. A selection of them was given to the world some three of four years after his death by his friend and literary executor, Julius Frauenstaedt, who for this and other offices of piety, has received less recognition than he deserves. The papers then published have recently been issued afresh, with considerable additions and corrections, by Dr. Eduard Grisebach, who is also entitled to gratitude for the care with which he has followed the text of the manuscripts, now in the Royal Library at Berlin, and for having drawn attention--although in terms that are unnecessarily severe--to a number of faults and failings on the part of the previous editor. The fact that all Schopenhauer's works, together with a volume of his correspondence, may now be obtained in a certain cheap collection of the best national and foreign literature displayed in almost every bookshop in Germany, is sufficient evidence that in his own country the writer's popularity is still very great; nor does the demand for translations indicate that his fame has at all diminished abroad.
