![]() ![]() The X-type frame featured a lengthy 119-inch wheelbase, and the long rear overhang of its pickup body gave it a 210-inch overall length, which is three inches longer than the current Cadillac DeVille. There was nothing remarkable about the El Camino's chassis. But with the flat roof of its cab held up by narrow pillars, the El Camino offered a lovely profile that conjures up a vintage powerboat. And the gull-winged rear end was gaudy as well. There was nothing simple about the '59 Chevy front end, bedecked as it was with a full-width grille, quad headlights and chrome-surrounded nostrils. Perhaps overly sensitive about price, Chevrolet product planners trimmed the new Camino out in Biscayne (bottom of the line) trim, but the result was still exceptionally attractive. The Chevrolet El Camino of 1959 was based on the '59 Chevrolet passenger-car chassis with a truncated but very attractive greenhouse followed by a big pickup truck bed. In this case, page two was basically a page from Ford playbook. When it realized that Ford, indeed, had a better idea with its car-based Ranchero, it didn't think twice about quickly phasing out the Cameo and moving on to page two. One thing about General Motors (and the entire American auto industry of the era, for that matter), in those days it could turn on a dime. It not only rode better, as you would expect from a car-based vehicle, it was also significantly cheaper than the Chevrolet. They christened the resulting vehicle the Ranchero, and when it debuted in the 1957 model year, it quickly began to outsell the Cameo Carrier by a wide margin. Instead of trying to add car-like features to a truck chassis, they decided to take a car chassis - in this case the full-size Ford Ranch Wagon - and fit it with a pickup truck bed directly behind the front bench seat. Of course, the Cameo could also be equipped with Chevy's all-new, high-compression small-block V-8 engine, which turned the truck into a bit of a hot rod.Īs Chevrolet hit the market with its Cameo Carrier, the men at Ford were following a nearly parallel path to develop their own personal-use pickup truck, but they approached the exercise from a different angle. It offered plenty of chrome trim, a two-tone paint job and a wealth of car-like options including power steering, power brakes and an automatic transmission. The Cameo was no plain-jane with rubber mats and painted bumpers. ![]() Compared to the Chevrolet passenger cars of that year, the Cameo was a mere footnote, but it pointed the way toward a new type of highly styled, well-equipped pickup that would be acceptable as a personal car. ![]() In late 1954, Chevrolet launched its landmark 1955 model-year line that included the not only the classic sedan, hardtop, and coupe, but also a flashy new pickup dubbed the Cameo Carrier. ![]() As usual, the Chevrolet-Ford rivalry got things going. The vast middle class simply didn't drive trucks they drove passenger cars.īut in the 1950s all that began to change, though the change came with glacier-like slowness. Trucks were strictly commercial vehicles, so anyone who employed one for "personal use" was typing himself as a tradesman or a farmer. These days, when half of the light vehicles sold are "trucks" and when the vehicle of choice in the suburbs is a sport utility, it is difficult to comprehend that 50 years ago there was a stigma to driving a truck. Willys, Hudson, and Studebaker were among the American manufacturers who offered car-based pickup trucks direct from the factory during those years, and pickup and panel truck conversions of passenger cars done by aftermarket body-builders were widely available as well. Since virtually every vehicle on the road in those days used separate body-on-frame construction, it was a fairly simple task to build truck-like bodies and plop them on car chassis. Pickups and panel trucks based on car platforms were relatively common in the 1920s and 1930s. After getting its second chance, it spawned a line that would extend for 25 years. Out that the '59 Camino was more an artistic success than a commercial triumph, but that does not diminish the importance of the The concept of a highly styled,Ĭivilized pickup truck was certainly not new when the El Camino was introduced to the public in the 1959 model year, and it turned Sometimes even the best ideas need a second chance, and so it was with the Chevrolet El Camino.

These differences include the children’s various social identities, interests, strengths, and preferences their personalities, motivations, and approaches to learning and their knowledge, skills, and abilities related to their cultural experiences, including family languages, dialects, and vernaculars. Educators understand that each child reflects a complex mosaic of knowledge and experiences that contributes to the considerable diversity among any group of young children. Educators use a variety of methods-including reflecting on their knowledge of the community seeking information from the family observing the child examining the child’s work and using authentic, valid, and reliable individual child assessments. Individuality-the characteristics and experiences unique to each child, within the context of their family and community, that have implications for how best to support their development and learningĮarly childhood educators have the responsibility of getting to know each child well, understanding each child as an individual and as a family and community member. 11 Early childhood educators need to understand the commonalities of children’s development and learning and how those commonalities take unique forms as they reflect the social and cultural frameworks in which they occur. Play, however, can vary significantly by social and cultural contexts as children use play as a means of interpreting and making sense of their experiences. ![]() For example, play is a universal phenomenon across all cultures (it also extends to other primates). Social and cultural aspects are not simply ingredients of development and learning these aspects provide the framework for all development and learning. 10 As social and cultural contexts vary, so too do processes of development and learning. The current body of evidence indicates that all child development and learning-actually, all human development and learning-are always embedded within and affected by social and cultural contexts. 7, 8 Increasingly, theories once assumed to be universal in developmental sciences, such as attachment, are now recognized to vary by culture and experience.

When considering commonalities in development and learning, it is important to acknowledge that much of the research and the principal theories that have historically guided early childhood professional preparation and practice have primarily reflected norms based on a Western scientific-cultural model. 4 This extensive knowledge base, including both what is known about general processes of children’s development and learning and the educational practices educators need to fully support development and learning in all areas, is summarized in the principles section of this statement. These core considerations apply to all aspects of educators’ decision-making in their work to foster each child’s optimal development and learning.Ĭommonality-current research and understandings of processes of child development and learning that apply to all children, including the understanding that all development and learning occur within specific social, cultural, linguistic, and historical contextsĪn ever-increasing body of research documents the tremendous amount of development and learning that occur from birth through age 8 across all domains and content areas and how foundational this development and learning is for later life.

The allegations of copyright infringement have once again put the spotlight on this talented artist’s history of plagiarism accusations.ĭespite all the challenges he’s faced in the past, Usher continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. So, you’ve just read about Usher’s latest legal battle over his decade old hit, ‘Caught Up’. However, as long as accusations of plagiarism continue to plague him, his legacy may be tarnished in the eyes of some fans and critics alike. He has sold over 75 million records worldwide and won numerous awards throughout his career. Despite these controversies, Usher remains one of the most successful and influential musicians of our time. These incidents have led some to question whether Usher’s success has been built upon the creative works of others. ![]() And in 2013, he settled a lawsuit with a German producer who accused him of stealing parts of a song for his chart-topping single ‘Burn.’ In 2016, he was sued by a songwriter who claimed that the Grammy-winning hit ‘U Got It Bad’ was based on one of his own compositions. In 2018, songwriter Daniel Marino accused Usher of copying elements of his song ‘Club Girl’ for the hit track ‘Bad Girl.’ This is not the first time Usher has faced such allegations. The R&B singer has been sued multiple times for allegedly stealing other artists’ work without proper credit or compensation. Usher’s History of Legal Battles over PlagiarismĪmidst ongoing legal battles, accusations of plagiarism in Usher’s music continue to stir up controversy and anger among fans. Whether intentional or not, borrowing too heavily from someone else’s work can lead to costly legal battles and tarnish an artist’s reputation. It remains to be seen whether Marino’s case will hold up in court, but it serves as a reminder of how easy it can be for artists to run afoul of copyright law. In particular, the suit claims that the drum pattern and chord progression in the chorus of ‘Caught Up’ are nearly identical to those in ‘Are You That Somebody?’ The plaintiff in the case is a musician named Daniel Marino, who says he created ‘Are You That Somebody?’ with his writing partner.Īccording to Marino’s attorney, Usher and his co-writers had access to Marino’s song when they wrote ‘Caught Up’ and should have known better than to use its distinctive elements without permission or credit. The lawsuit alleges that the song contains elements from a 2002 track called ‘Are You That Somebody?’ by Aaliyah.

The song is credited to songwriter Ryan Toby and producers Andre Harris and Vidal Davis. “Caught Up” is the fifth single from Usher’s 2004 diamond album, Confessions. They insist they never heard back from the label and are seeking unspecified damages. Zacharia Edwards, Mitch Moses and Vince McClean filed the suit alleging they played a song with the same title for an Artista Records executive in 2002, only to hear a version two years later on the radio.
