George Carlin, in full George Denis Patrick Carlin, (born May 12, 1937, New York, N.Y., U.S.—died June 22, 2008, Santa Monica, Calif.), American comedian whose “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television” routine led to a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that gave the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) the right to determine when to censor radio and TV broadcasts. Carlin began working in the late 1950s as a wisecracking radio disc jockey and low-key stand-up comedian known for such whimsical routines as “Wonderful WINO” and the “Hippy Dippy Weatherman.” Beginning in the 1970s, however, he transformed himself into a provocative and incisive antiestablishment comic icon. Carlin was most closely identified with the monologue “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television,” in which he satirically analyzed the use and misuse of seven of the raunchiest obscenities in the English language. Carlin was arrested in 1972 for performing the monologue onstage, but a judge dismissed the case. In 1973 New York City radio station WBAI-FM triggered a lawsuit by the FCC after it aired a recorded version of the routine called “Filthy Words.” The landmark “Carlin case” was finally settled in 1978 by the U.S. Supreme Court: in a 5–4 ruling, it gave the FCC the ability to censor offensive content in radio and TV broadcasts. #Viewerdiscretion  #Carlin #Georgecarlin #love #TFLers #tweegram #photooftheday #20likes #amazing #smile #follow4follow #like4like #look #instalike #igers #picoftheday #food #instadaily #instafollow #followme #girl #iphoneonly #instagood #bestoftheday #instacool #instago #all_shots #follow #webstagram #colorful #style #swag #amazing #followme #all_shots #textgram #family #instago #igaddict #awesome #girls #instagood #my #bored #baby #music #red #green #water #harrystyles #bestoftheday #black #party #white #yum #flower #2012 #night #instalove #niallhoran #jj_forum #love #instagood #me #tbt #cute #follow #followme #photooftheday #happy #tagforlikes #beautiful #self #girl #picoftheday #like4like #smile #friends #fun #like #fashion #summer #instadaily #igers #instalike #food #love #photooftheday #portrait #baby #me #instamood #cute #friends #hair #swag #igers #picoftheday #girl #guy #beautiful #fashion #instagramers #follow #smile #pretty #followme #photo #life #funny #cool #hot #bored #girls #iphonesia#movies #theatre #video #movie #film #films #videos #actor #actress #cinema #dvd #amc #instamovies #star #moviestar #photooftheday #hollywood #goodmovie #instagood #flick #flicks #instaflick #instaflicks #27club #Cobain#explore #fridayfuckery #podcastlife #podcasts #youtube #book #deus #fy #fyp #interview #podcasthost #radio #90s #apple #applepodcasts #author #bringingthefuckery #comedy #richardpryor #80s #standup #comedians #actors #multiplesclerosis #goat #superman #death #actors # #richardpryor #pryor #blackcomedians #richardpryor #pryor #blackcomedians #funny #funnymemes #funnyvideos #funnymeme #funnyshit #funnyreels #funnyvideo #funnypictures #funnyposts #funnyvines #funnyreel #funnytime #funnyvideosdaily #funnyreels

Qool DJ Marv For MamaSoul & Friends at The Harlem Connection on WBAI-FM NYC - Aired May 14 2021 After 18 years living in Washington Heights/Harlem, I moved to Crown Heights Brooklyn when my son, who I co-parent, was accepted to Yale...starting a new phase in his and our lives. I left Harlem after subtly, over time, becoming a contributor to its culture and vibe. DJ Stormin Norman started Sundae Sermon with DJs Cosi and me joining him as the original groove masters. Thanks to Lisa Yancey, DJ Damon Alston and me were the resident DJs for the Apollo Music Cafe, almost a decade ago! Shout out to Dwight Jordan and the Apollo Fam...still going strong, keeping on and on. I thought I died and went to heaven when Marcus Samuelsson's Red Rooster added me to their DJ roster where I would play 3x a week sometimes. First time in a long time (since Sylvia's), the Red Rooster restaurant in Harlem brought jobs, tourists and celebrities back to Harlem in droves in the early 20-teens. They keep on growing, Red Rooster is in the UK and recently opened in Miami. Lucky me, I got another turn at doing something on-going at the Apollo Theater when Bob Sumner had me join his vision for a comedy club experience at the Apollo in the Apollo Music Cafe. The Apollo Comedy Club was established in 2015 and will re-emerge in October 2021. The 1st 5 years were just the warm-up. A very special thanks to Glenn G-Man Holt, a Harlem born and raised man with a gift for bringing people together. My first true friend in New York City, my guide, my brother (RIP). Thanks to MamaSoul, I reminisced about Harlem and put together a set of Harlem influences on me. Her show, on WBAI 99.5 NYC, is called the Harlem Connection and she and her partners shine a light on the music, history and impact of the metropolis of Harlem. Here is the link to the entire episode with the interview + the mix + much more music, sounds and connections by the THC fam: https://wbai.org/archive/program/episode/?id=22515 https://linktr.ee/qooldjmarv

Nursing Homes During COVID "There are published checklists for how to determine the quality of care a facility can deliver. But most of that's gone out the window because COVID has changed everything."  -Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP-BC, FGSA, FAAN ____________________________________________________________________ As of February 2021, 35% of COVID-19 deaths in the United States have occurred among the nursing home population - and these deaths include residents and staff. For over a year now, family caregivers, volunteers, and/ or paid companions have not been allowed to enter nursing homes.  The pandemic highlighted many problems that already existed in our nation’s nursing homes, particularly related to staffing. Many facilities struggled with short-staffing prior to COVID - but COVID has amplified staffing shortages and residents are suffering; and some have died as a result.  Providing a paid Companion has always been one option for ensuring 1:1 care in a facility for your loved one. Although families do have to pay for this out-of-pocket, some facilities are still not allowing companions into the facility - over a year into the pandemic.  In this episode of This Is Getting Old: Moving Towards an Age-Friendly World, Kenya Beard,  Associate Provost for Social Mission and Academic Excellence at Chamberlain University, will share her experience of losing her Mom due to COVID while in a nursing facility. Part One of 'Nursing Homes During COVID'. It's difficult to lose someone you love while still dealing with the horrors and uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic. Kenya and her family went through then when their mom was infected with COVID during what was supposed to be a short-stay rehabilitation experience. Instead, she ended up dehydrated and hospitalized from her stay; and ultimately, died.  The Story Of Kenya's Mom: A Tale of How COVID Impacted Nursing Homes COVID took the whole world by surprise. We were not prepared, and it exposed a lot of leaks in the healthcare system and exaggerated other leaks that were already there.  The nursing home facility that Kenya's mom was in did not allow companions that the family was willing to pay for in order to get 1:1 care for their mother - they essentially tied their hands behind their backs.  It all started when Kenya's mom fractured her ankle. She had this injury treated and was ok for several years. However, she woke up one morning in early 2021 with horrific pain, crying. Kenya and her sister hesitated to bring her to the hospital because of the pandemic. But the pain was so excruciating that they were left with no other options and she was taken to the emergency room.  Unfortunately, from being in bed for so many days, Kenya's mom declined and deconditioned. Since her sister wasn't comfortable having a physical therapist come into the home (because she had a bubble that she wanted to protect and keep everyone else safe, too), they decided to allow their mom to go into a nursing home.  While in the nursing home, January this year, Kenya's mom tested positive for COVID. Kenya was very upset - because they assured her in the beginning that they had guidelines in place to protect individuals from getting COVID.  Here comes the sad part of the story, Kenya knew her mother needed assistance, and she felt that if the facility put her into isolation because of COVID, that would not get the care that she needed. So she asked the nursing home Administrator if they (the family) could hire a companion. The nursing homes’s Director of Nursing said, “Oh, I don't think we can. If you can find a facility for me that's doing it, let me know." "The nurse (in the hospital) held the phone for half an hour so we could see my mother. She never said, ‘I have to go. You guys have to wrap this up’ - she stayed with us on the phone all that time." —Kenya Beard, EdD, AGACNP-BC, CNE, ANEF, FAAN Kenya made phone calls over the weekend and asked several facilities about whether or not they allowed companions. She even reached out to the Department of Health (DOH) to verify the guidelines regarding companions for older adults in nursing homes. Although the DOH responded that they don't have some guidelines and it's up to the facility, they still refused to have a companion for Kenya's mom. Instead, they assured her that everything would be handled.  The next couple of days, Kenya received a call from the nursing home supervisor asking for permission to start an IV because her mother is dehydrated. When she got off the phone, Kenya called the Department of Health and filed a complaint. A few days later, they received a call that the facility was going to have to send her mom to the emergency room. Her sodium had come back at 167 and her mental status had declined.  Three days later, Kenya's mom died. Part Two of 'Nursing Homes During COVID'. Nursing Homes During COVID: Where Do They Need Help? The pandemic has put further pressure on the primarily frail nursing home facilities, which have long struggled with staff turnover, persistent personnel shortages, and elevated burnout. To safeguard nursing home residents from the pandemic's long-term effects, we must first consider how COVID-19 has impacted employees' day-to-day jobs and the areas where they need help.   Staffing Issues   While the effect of COVID-19 on older adults has received a lot of coverage, there has been even less reflection on how the pandemic has affected long-term care workers' careers and responsibilities. Short-staffed facilities resulted in poor resident outcomes, even death. COVID has put such stress on the staff. Even people that have worked on a long-term care corporation for 30 years are like, “I'm out of here. I can't do it anymore.”    Transparency For Allowing  Companions   Guidelines for allowing companions for older adults in nursing homes has not been required to be transparent for older adults and their  families during the COVID outbreak. Who suffers the most with these decisions to prohibit companions? The older adults.   State To State Variation On Guidelines And Protocols   Nursing home administrators have spoken about the difficulties in handling variations  in implementing COVID health safety protocols on top of adhering to the regulated rules and guidelines. Many administrators complained that policies from state authorities were ambiguous and inconsistent at times.  "If you are a skilled nursing facility, you are required to have one registered nurse on duty, 24/7."  —Melissa Batchelor, PhD, RN, FNP-BC, FGSA, FAAN   Corporation To Corporation Variation   Corporations primarily own nursing homes, and while they have to follow federal and state guidelines, the important thing to know is how each individual facility is implementing policies and procedures related to companions and visitation.    Individual Leadership Within A Nursing Home   Nursing home administrators and directors of nursing have been faced with incredibly trying times for the nursing home industry.  They have had to be flexible and try to balance the priorities of families, residents, and all the layers of regulation (federal, state, corporate office). Some individual leadership decisions have resulted in adverse patient care outcomes.  What To Learn From The Nursing Home During COVID Experience? COVID has taught us many lessons. The most important of which is to cherish the ones we loved more than anything else. COVID won't be the last pandemic or infectious disease that we're going to have to deal with in this country. So what lessons should we learn so the same situations won't happen again?  Know Your Rights, Know The Rules  The number one thing people need to know before they put a loved one in a facility is you have the right to ask if you can have a companion. Put your loved one in a facility that allows for companions if you cannot be there.  The pandemic has been going on for 14 months - it’s time to create better road maps for taking care of our older, most vulnerable loved ones. Now; and in the future. About Kenya V. Beard, EdD, AGACNP-BC, CNE, ANEF, FAAN: Kenya V.

In the course of common school day activities, students share extensive personal data, completely oblivious to the many ways this information can be--and often is--exploited. Even the important college admissions tests can present certain security hazards. Amy and Mike invited student advocate Leonie Haimson to explain both the necessity and challenges of keeping student data private.  What are five things you will learn in this episode? Who seeks to collect student data and under what rationale? What kind of student data is collected? In what ways have the laws protecting student privacy been weakened? How do current College Board practices threaten student data privacy? What do students and parents need to know about keeping student data private? MEET OUR GUEST Leonie Haimson is the founder and Executive Director of Class Size Matters, a non-profit organization that advocates for smaller classes in NYC’s public schools and the nation as a whole.  She started the organization in 2000 and as of 2019, she continues to lead the organization.  She is a graduate of Harvard College (Phi Beta Kappa, Magna cum laude) was a public school parent for 15 years, worked for the Educational Priorities Panel, and founded Class Size Matters in 2000. The New York Times has called her the “city’s leading proponent of smaller classes.”   In 2013-2014, she led the fight both in NY and nationally against the Gates Foundation $100 million dollar data-collection project, later spun off into a separate corporation called inBloom Inc.  As a result of the controversy this project aroused, nearly 100 new state student privacy laws were passed in states throughout the country in recent years, including in New York. In 2015, she was credited by investigative reporter Juan Gonzalez for helping to save the city between $163 million and $627 million when she alerted the media to a highly inflated contract that was about to be signed by the NYC Department of Education with a vendor, Custom Computer Specialists, that had been involved in a kickback scheme a few years before.  Because of the resulting scandal, the contract was withdrawn and rebid with multiple vendors for a far lower amount.  Leonie received the John Dewey award from the United Federation of Teachers in 2007, was named one of NYC’s “family heroes” by NYC Family Magazine in 2009, and was honored as an “Extraordinary Advocate for our Children” by Advocates for Justice in 2012.  In 2014, she received the “Parent Voice” award from Parents Across America for her work defeating inBloom and protecting student privacy.  In 2015, she was named one of the ten most influential people in education technology by Tech and Learning Magazine. She blogs at the NYC Public School Parents, is a board member of the Network for Public Education  and serves on the steering committee of NY State Allies for Public Education. She is also the co-chair of the Parent Coalition for Student Privacy which she co-founded after the collapse of inBloom in 2014. Starting this fall of 2019, she is co-hosting a weekly radio show on WBAI FM called “Talk Out of School.” Find Leonie at info@studentprivacymatters.org LINKS Privacy warning for parents of students taking ACT or College Board exams Five Principles to Protect Student Privacy ABOUT THIS PODCAST Tests and the Rest is THE college admissions industry podcast.

We know it's true.  We all think thoughts sometimes that we are ashamed of and are happy that no one else knows them.  But we also have those thoughts that we are unaware of that shape and color how we view the world and other people.  These thoughts can be biased based on geographical location, race, religion, gender orientation and so much more. In this very real show with Dr. Kenya Beard I take a moment to share some of my own story about bias in healthcare and how it has made me feel.  Listen until the very end to get the bonus story!!

She recently helped co-create the Josiah Macy Foundation’s 2018 ground-breaking document Improving the Environment for Learning in the Health Professions. In this episode you will learn: How to recognize your biases and align your actions better with your values and beliefs How to stop shaming and stigmatizing and rather empower and engage your clients/patients on the path of health and well-being What emotional intelligence does to help create diverse and inclusive environments How to model inclusion in teaching and learning spaces so that students can integrate inclusive practices To Reach Dr. Beard: For more information about Dr. Beard you can reach her at Kenya.Beard@ncc.edu To Reach Nikki: You can reach me at my website: www.transformnursing.com or my email transformnursing@gmail.com.  My information is listed in the show notes.   If you’re looking for more direction for health equity in your organization, if you want to have better rapport with patients and be positioned to empower them then please check out my free masterclass "Leadership Practices for Nurses Who Want to Make a Social Impact" at transformnursing.com/masterclass.

This week, Rock and Spectre are joined by Substantia Jones, founder of The Adipositivity Project, to talk about fat love, sex and relationships, body acceptance, the spirals of weight loss and weight gain and the multi-billion dollar industries they support, feminism and f**kyouism! Some more about Adipositivity and our guest: The Adipositivity Project aims to promote the acceptance of benign human size variation and encourage discussion of body politics, not by listing the merits of big people, or detailing examples of excellence (these things are easily seen all around us), but rather through a visual display of fat physicality. The sort that's normally unseen. The hope is to broaden definitions of physical beauty. Literally. Substantia Jones is the founder of and photographer for the photo-activism campaign, The Adipositivity Project, and runs both FatPeopleFlippingYouOff.com and UppityFatty.com. She has spoken about body politics on NPR, Sirius/XM, and The Pacifica Radio Network, as well as on radio stations in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. She's also the producer and host of the four-part radio series PolitiSIZE on WBAI-FM in New York City. She’s contributed to books by Random House, Seal Press, Ten Speed Press, and Vignette, and lectures internationally at colleges and universities.

Karen Zusman interviewed on Wakeup Call, WBAI FM

An interview by Charles Ruas with the author of Tales of Beatnik Glory, originally broadcast in 1975 on WBAI-FM.

In this 1975 interview, originally broadcast on WBAI-FM, New York, playwright and director Richard Foreman gives detailed insight into his process with several illustrations from recorded performances at his Ontological-Hysteric Theater.

Breakfast with Lunch, the focus of a 1975 program produced by Charles Ruas at WBAI-FM in New York. It contains matchless readings by author William S. Burroughs, plus a fascinating discussion led by Allen Ginsberg, and including publisher Maurice Girodias, James Grauerholz, and Carl Solomon discussing the publication of Burroughs' best-known novel, Naked Lunch. An introduction to the influence of Jack Keroac on Burroughs is provided by the remarkable Felicity Mason (aka Anne Cumming), the professed "adoptive" sister of Brion Gysin.
