 CNN.com - Boys Town plans to include girls in name - August 18, 2000
Boys Town, made famous in the 1938 Spencer Tracy-Mickey Rooney film of the same name, hopes its new name will bolster the institution's efforts to reach more troubled girls and should not hinder its aggressive marketing and fund raising efforts.
BOYS TOWN, Nebraska (AP) -- Boys Town, the home for troubled youth immortalized in a Hollywood movie, wants to change its name to Girls and Boys Town.
When the Rev. Edward Flanagan started the home for wayward boys in 1917, girls were not included in the original charter, because of the common belief at the time that girls could be adopted more quickly than troublesome boys.

 Afrika Bambaataa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Along with himself were rapper and graffiti artist Rammellzee, Zulu Nation DJ Grand Mixer DXT (formerly Grand Mixer D.St), B-boy and B-girl crews the Rock Steady Crew, and the Double Dutch Girls, as well as legendary graffiti artists Fab 5 Freddy, Phase 2, Futura 2000, and Dondi.
This began the development of The Organization, which soon later became known as the Zulu Nation, a group of racially and politically aware rappers, B-boys, graffiti artists and other people involved in hip hop culture that gained fame in the early eighties to mid nineties.
Bambaataa was influenced by the depiction of the Zulu warriors attacking British troops at Rorke's Drift in the Michael Caine film Zulu.

 Chicago Reader Movie Review
One of the interesting things about Yi Yi -- which centers on a middle-class family in a Taipei that's not exotic, apart from a few stray details (boys and girls attend separate schools) -- is that it has almost nothing in common with Lee's The Wedding Banquet or Eat Drink Man Woman.
It was a pleasant surprise when Yi Yi was voted best foreign film of 2000 by the New York Critics Circle -- a turn of events reportedly influenced by a strong opposition to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which for obscure reasons appears to have been more prevalent in New York than anywhere else.
None of them besides Yi Yi has been distributed in the U.S., but all of them except a two-part TV film made at the beginning of his career (Floating Weeds, 1981) have been screened here, most notably at the Film Center's invaluable Yang retrospective in late 1997.

The Washington National Cathedral of Men and Girls was instituted in the fall of 1997, after several years of careful preparation by the cathedral and its sister institution, the National Cathedral School for Girls.

 David Lee Roth
In 1985 David Lee Roth released Crazy From the Heat, an EP of cover songs that scored big with versions of Cab Calloway's Just a Gigolo and The Beach Boys' California Girls (the video for the latter thoroughly investigating the possibilities of how much T&A can be squeezed into three minutes of film).
After putting together a new band and releasing a fifth solo album, DLR Band (1998), Roth made his second attempt to rejoin Van Halen; apparently, some recording sessions were completed in 2000, but the project was stalled by Eddie Van Halen's announcement of a cancer diagnosis the following year.
Spawned of a schoolteacher and an ophthalmologist, David Lee Roth entered the world in the Monroe County town of Bloomington- and the future of the spandex industry was insured as a result.
