Would is an auxiliary verb, a modal auxiliary verb. We use would mainly to:
We also use would for other functions, such as:
Structure of Would
subject + would + main verb
The main verb is always the bare infinitive (infinitive without "to").
Notice that:
The main verb is always the bare infinitive. We cannot say:
Be careful! Would and had have the same short form 'd:
He'd finished. (He had finished.)
He'd like coffee. (He would like coffee.)
Use of Would
would: Talking about the past
We often use would as a kind of past tense of will or going to:
Using would as as a kind of past tense of will or going to is common in reported speech:
We often use would not to talk about past refusals:
We sometimes use would (rather like used to) when talking about habitual past behaviour:
would: Future in past
When talking about the past we can use would to express something that has not happened at the time we are talking about:
would: Conditionals
We often use would to express the so-called second and third conditionals:
Using the same conditional structure, we often use would when giving advice:
Sometimes the condition is "understood" and there does not have to be an "if" clause:
Although there is always a main verb, sometimes it is understood (not stated) as in:
would: Desire or inclination
would: Polite requests and questions
would: Opinion or hope
would: Wish
Note that all of these uses of would express some kind of distance or remoteness:
would: Presumption or expectation

Aside from all the Crosby-diving / Referee-biasing / Bettman-fixing talk that's dominating the Pens-Rangers series, what we have here is playoff hockey and the rekindling of an old Patrick Division rivalry.
Both fan bases hate each other right now.
The tension on the ice is incredibly high.
Players are starting to get fed up with one another.
How do you not love playoff hockey?

Couldn't agree more. After going through that dark time where the Rangers didn't make the PO's for some time, it feels great to be back yelling at the TV again and renewing old rivalries.
BTW, I hate you!!!! :)

text: Interior Design share FaceBook Twitter LinkedIn Tumblr Google+ ALL RESOURCES Rollback Chair: In its coverage of NeoCon in 1977, the New York Times described Ray Wilkes's Rollback Chair as having "an outsized sausage" that was roughly as big as a "giant roll of paper toweling." The chair's backrest could be adjusted in seven different positions and was height adjustable. ALL RESOURCES Chair-Table: Although this handmade chair circa 1650 might not fit the definition of a traditional office chair, the way it cleverly converted to a table made it perfectly suited for the "home offices" of 17th-century New England interiors. Photo courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. ALL RESOURCES Pollock Chair: Instead of a fully upholstered seat back, the 1965 Pollack Chair had a molded plastic shell. According to Jonathan Olivares's "A Taxonomy of Office Chairs," the use of less fabric was intended to lower costs, resulting in a chair that was more affordable than the Saarinen iconic 1951 design. ALL RESOURCES Lily Swivel Chair: Designed by Arne Jacobsen in 1970, the Lily Chair's complex compound curves, made with 10 layers of veneer, ended up being impractical to mass produce at the time. It was shelved until 2007, when advances in molding technologies made manufacturing the chair more feasible. ALL RESOURCES HÅG Capisco, 1984: These "saddle chairs" were made to mimic the dynamic posture of a horse rider. They encourage sitting in a variety of positions—facing forward, backward, or even to the side—and had footrests covering each caster. ALL RESOURCES TechnoGym Wellness Ball: The latest evolution in "active sitting," which aims to engage core muscles throughout the workday, may be TechnoGym's recently introduced Wellness Ball. It's denser at the base to improve stability and has a breathable, bacteria-resistant cover. ALL RESOURCES Centripetal Spring Armchair: Designed over a century and a half ago, in 1849, Thomas E. Warren's Centripetal Spring Armchair had all the hallmarks of a modern office chair: castors, a swiveling base, and—surprisingly—a tilting seat, thanks to the eight, springy steel loops on which the seat was suspended. Photo courtesy of the Design Museum, London. ALL RESOURCES Nelson Perch for Herman Miller: This George Nelson classic from 1964 perhaps foreshadows the current interest in stand-up desks. The chair was part of the "Action Office" that George Nelson designed for Herman Miller's then recently established research department for workplace efficiency. (See also, Konstantin Grcic 360 Chair, released in 2009.) ALL RESOURCES Steelcase Gesture: After studying the habits of 2,000 knowledge workers, Steelcase identified nine new computing postures spawned by mobile devices. The company's Gesture chair, to be released this fall, has floating armrests, a flexible recline, and other features to facilitate our new way of working. ALL RESOURCES ID Trim L Cap by Vitra: Antonio Citterio's 2012 ID Trim L Cap has an enveloping hood, similar to traditional porter's chair, to block out acoustic and visual distractions in an open-plan office. ALL RESOURCES Liberty by Humanscale: Designed by ergonomics superstar Niels Diffrient in 2002, the Liberty used three panels of fabric with varying degrees of elasticity to create a firm but invisible lumbar support. ALL RESOURCES Setu by Herman Miller: Look underneath this 18-pound chair and you'll find none of the usual contraptions. Rather than relying on pneumatics for comfort, this 18-pound chair, designed in 2009, has a polypropylene-and-rubber "spine" that flexes to offer 26 degrees of recline when you lean back. ALL RESOURCES LimbIC by Inno-Motion: The $8,500 LimbIC, released in 2011, bills itself as the first chair that "combines the latest from neuroscience with ergonomics." Created by a graduate of the MIT Media Lab, this chair (or a radical deconstruction of one) aims to encourage micro-movements in the body, thereby stimulating the limbic system. ALL RESOURCES ALL RESOURCES 40/4 Swivel: Finding beauty in mass production, David Rowland designed his 40/4 stacking chair to be light and easy to produce. Over 8 million 40/4 have been sold since its introduction in 1964. The swiveling version maintains the original's utter simplicity. ALL RESOURCES Vertebra: The Metropolitan Museum of Art credits Emilio Ambasz's 1976 Vertebra as with being "the first automatically adjustable office chair, designed to respond and adapt to the movements of the user's body." Its seat back was connected to the base by the chair's arms, which flexed when you leaned back. ALL RESOURCES Larkin Revolving Armchair: Frank Lloyd Wright's design for the Larkin Soap Company's administrative office, in Buffalo, New York, blurred the line between architecture and furniture. Photo courtesy of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. ALL RESOURCES Sears, Roebuck & Co. Revolving Office Chair: An early example of democratic design, this oak chair, listed in a 1908 Sears, Roebuck & Co. catalog, had a back that was "shaped to fit the form" and a height-adjustable seat. The price with a perforated leather seat: $10.15, the equivalent of $255 today. Photo courtesy of the Montgomery County Historical Society, Maryland. ALL RESOURCES Emeco Navy Semi-Upholstered Swivel Armchair: Emeco 's hollow-core aluminum chairs (1944) were relatively lightweight compared with its solid-metal contemporaries. They were used extensively aboard U.S. Navy ships and submarines. ALL RESOURCES Saarinen Executive Conference Chair: Saarinen's classic lounge chair, the Womb, was the first to be made of molded polypropylene. The designer's 1957 collection for Knoll applied that technology to the office. The curved seat back of this iconic executive chair was made possible using molded fiberglass. ALL RESOURCES Aeron by Herman Miller: Its computer-centric ergonomics aside, this now iconic chair of the dot-com era was also notable for the way it standardized the landscape of the office. In 1994, it was one of the first office chairs that wasn't offered in different models to reflect workplaces hierarchies.

UCLA once again ranks in the top 10 among the nation's 100 best-value colleges and universities, according to Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine's annual survey. The campus rose to the No. 6 spot this year, after being ranked No. 9 in 2012.
The magazine said UCLA's exceptional 2013 ranking was the result of its "high four-year graduation rate, low average student debt at graduation, abundant financial aid, a low sticker price, and overall great value." The survey looks at costs for both in-state and out-of-state students.
Also in the top 10 were UC Berkeley (No. 8) and UC San Diego (10). Five additional UC campuses ranked among the top 100: Santa Barbara (14), Irvine (16), Davis (23), Santa Cruz (54) and Riverside (92). Several California State universities also made the top 100 list. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill once again took the top spot. See the full list of the 100 best-value institutions.
Speaking of UCLA's admission rate of approximately 25 percent, Kiplinger noted that "the posh neighborhood of Westwood in Los Angeles isn't a bad place to spend four years, but you'll need to be a top student to get into UCLA." It added that while UCLA's annual in-state cost is $26,888, more than 80 percent of students qualify for financial aid, and most paid about $10,229 out-of-pocket this year.
The editors at Kiplinger's start with data on more than 500 public four-year colleges and universities and then narrow the list down based on measures of academic quality, including SAT or ACT scores, admission and retention rates, student–faculty ratios, and graduation rates. The editors then rank each school based on cost and financial aid. Academic quality carries more weight than cost.
The magazine said that despite increases in tuition at California state schools in general, the state's universities remained competitive in the national rankings because of generous financial aid and rigorous academics.

The music minor consists of courses in both music performance and music lecture classes. Students interesting in enrolling as a music minor should contact Prof. Webb via e-mail (email@example.com) or by phone at (814) 269-7155.
The minor in music consists of 18 credits. The credits are broken up into three different categories; Music Fundamentals, Music History, and Performance. The distribution is as follows:
Music 413-Theory and Ear-Training 1
Music 414-Theory and Ear-Training 2
The students who wish to take these courses will have to be able to read/analyze music at a level of proficiency to be determined by a diagnostic exam. If a student cannot read/analyze music at the required level, they will be placed in a new course entitled Music Rudiments (course number to be determined). This course would work in a similar fashion to the way the Theory/Ear-Training 1 course currently works. This course would assume no musical ability. The course would introduce students to musical notation, rhythms, and articulations. The course would not be included in the 6 fundamental credits for the minor, but would rather act as a General Education requirement course.
The music history portion of the music minor would focus on music in Western Culture. Unlike in the past, the ability to read music is a prerequisite for these courses.
Music 223-History of Western Art Music to 1750
Music 225-History of Western Art Music since 1750
This portion of the music minor is broken into two components; ensemble participation and private lessons. At its core, music is a performance-driven medium. It is important that students who wish to study music have sufficient outlets to practice and perform on their instruments.
The Pitt-Johnstown Concert Choir
The Pitt-Johnstown Concert Band
Private Lessons- 3 credits (each course garners 1 credit hr. per semester)

Claremore Daily Progress
October 18, 2013
Citizens who circulated petition uneasy
DA expected to add 25 more to libel lawsuit
Salesha Wilken
Staff Reporter
Rogers County citizens who helped circulate the court-rejected grand jury petition to investigate the district attorney's office were on edge Thursday, potential targets of a defamation lawsuit against sponsors of the petition campaign.
District Attorney Janice Steidley and two of her top assistants listed 25 unnamed defendants under the placeholder name "John Doe" in the prosecutors' libel suit filed Wednesday, one day after a judge tossed out the petition and its 6,994 registered voter signatures on the technical ground the signature pages included unauthorized wording.
The suit said the identity of the anonymous defendants would be revealed during the discovery phase of the legal action as residents of the county "who created, drafted, circulated, or otherwise republished" petition allegations of criminal and civil misconduct by DA Steidley and her assistants.
"It is my understanding that anyone who had a petition and gathered signatures could be a target," said businessman Myron Grubowski, a sponsor of the grand jury petition. "Our friends, neighbors and co-workers have all become a target of this lawsuit. It is unfortunate to see the legal system used against the people it was designed to protect."
Grubowski was named as a defendant in the suit, which seeks financial damages that could exceed $500,000, along with the five other petition sponsors: Sheriff Scott Walton, Claremore police officers John Singer and Steve Cox, businessman Russell Guilfoyle, and Billy D. Jones, father of two rape victims.
The suit, which seeks a jury trial, contends the leaders of the petition drive maliciously and wrongly accused the district attorney and her assistants of corruption and criminal and civil misconduct.
Sheriff Walton said he was informed of the defamation lawsuit by a Tulsa television station, News on 6, before he was served with a formal notice of the complaint against him. The station apparently received a copy of the suit before it was made available to the defendants or the public.
Grubowski said he signed on as a sponsor of the grand jury petition because he "wanted to make Rogers County the safest and most desirable place for people to live, go to school and worship."
He said his background was similar to many of the people who circulated the petition: longtime resident of the county, member of the First Baptist Church, active in local charitable and civic organizations, and a supporter of Rogers State University and Claremore public schools.
Cox, a native of Claremore who went on to become a police officer, said he helped sponsor the petition "because I wanted things to be investigated by someone from the outside to determine if there was an issue and to have it resolved. I still believe in standing up for what is right and someone has to stand up at some point."
Guilfoyle, a real estate agent, said the citizens petition was circulated because of "circumstances that arose which were not being answered clearly" and a grand jury inquiry "seemed" the only way for the public to get answers.
"It is good for any community to have clarity as to how the government works," said Guilfoyle. "It makes it conducive for people to want to live here."
Jones, another of the named libel suit defendants, said he collected petition signatures standing at street corners. He said he was "fighting for the rights of his children in a system, which has become badly broken."
Jones said he was unhappy with the district attorney's office handling of the rape case of his two young children.
"I supported this to keep others from having to deal with what my family has dealt with," he said. "This has all become about the rights of the accused, the rights of those named in this petition. What about our rights, the people's right, my girls rights?"

"Of course there are naysayers, there always are," Gov. Deval Patrick said Tuesday, speaking in Somerville about the Green Line Extension. "They say we should stop trying to extend the Green Line and stop trying to build South Coast Rail. They want us to hunker down and wait, wait out the fiscal cliff, wait out the next budget cycle, wait me out, for that matter."
It's an economic growth strategy that doesn't work, the governor argued, and the state needs to invest in infrastructure projects like the Green Line Extension. "We cannot afford to wait and let our future happen to us," he said.
Watch more of Patrick's speech here.
Patrick was in Somerville to kick off construction of phase one of the Green Line Extension, the first step in a $1.3 billion project that, when complete, would add six new Green Line stations to the MBTA's light-rail line, extending it through Somerville to near Tufts University in Medford.
The kickoff event, held near the Commuter Rail tracks in the parking lot behind Target, drew a large crowd, and speakers included Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone, Rep. Michael Capuano, Medford Mayor Michael McGlynn and Massachusetts Secretary of Transportation Richard Davey, among others.
Curtatone called the beginning of phase one a "critical milestone" and said Tuesday's kickoff was "as momentous" a day for the city as Jan. 1, 1776—the day George Washington, commanding Continental forces in Boston, ordered the Grand Union Flag to be flown from the top of Prospect Hill.
"You cannot have a growing and sustainable 21st century economy without a growing and sustainable 21st century transportation system," Curtatone said.
Phase one
Phase one represents a small sliver of the entire Green Line Extension project. It consists of of reconstructing two bridges and tearing down a building. Crews will reconstruct the Medford Street railroad bridge in Somerville and the Harvard Street railroad bridge in Medford. Doing so will allow both Commuter Rail and Green Line trains to use the bridges. Workers will also knock down a building at 21 Water St. in Cambridge, which will help prepare that area for the new Lechmere Station.
A press release from the governors office says phase one will cost $12.9 million, though Davey, speaking after the event, said the cost would be close to $20 million. Either way, it represents less than 1.5 percent of the project's entire cost.
That said, the beginning of phase one also represents an important moment for those who have worked for years and even decades to bring the Green Line Extension to Somerville.
Funding the whole Green Line Extension
The total cost of the project is a bit of a moving target. The press release said it would cost about $1.12 billion, but a letter from the Federal Transit Administration regarding an application for federal funds notes the project is projected to cost a little over $1.3 billion.
The first trains aren't expected to roll into Somerville until the completion of phase two, which will bring the Green Line to Union Square and Washington Street. That's expected to be complete by the end of 2017.
Davey, speaking after the event, said the Green Line Extension has already secured $350 million to complete phase two. He also said the MBTA began, on Friday, soliciting letters of interest from contracts for phase two.
Most of the funding for the project, however, hasn't been secured.
Capuano, making a reference to that reality, said, "No matter what kind of commitment we get from the governor, we all know his term expires soon enough. We need to get as much of this project done and committed, in an irrevocable way, before his term is up."
Watch more of Capuano's speech here.
The MBTA and Massachusetts Department of Transportation are seeking $557 million from the Federal Transit Administration's New Starts program for the project. The federal administration officially accepted the Green Line Extension into its initial "pipeline" in July but said it was unlikely to fully fund the project unless Massachusetts fixes its transportation funding mess.
Patrick, speaking to reporters after the kickoff ceremony, spoke about the need to create "a comprehensive, long-term strategy and a financing mechanism" for funding the state's transportation needs.
Patrick: Project will "absolutely" be complete, even without federal dollars
Asked if the Green Line Extension would get completed without federal funding, the governor said, "absolutely, absolutely."
"We need to make plans for paying for this with the contingency we don't have a federal contribution, because the project has a worth that justifies it," he said.

Thursday night's ootball game between and — picked by Patch readers as the Gwinnett Game of the Week — will showcase some of the best football the county has to offer.
The game will be televised by WSB-TV (Digital Channel 2.2). Both teams are 1-0. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m.
Norcross, ranked No. 6 in Class AAAAA by the Georgia Sports Writers Assocation/Associated Press, has its sights set on challenging for the Region 7-AAAAAA championship with a high-powered offense and opportunistic defense.
Parkview, , is looking to get back to the Region 8-AAAAA elite after missing the playoffs last year.
At first glance, this appears to be a terrific , major-college prospects who opened the season will top performances last week.
Kamara had 186 yards and two touchdowns last week in a 35-20 win over South Gwinnett. Carson had 215 yards in a 3-0 win over Peachtree Ridge.
But the game will offer more than that. Norcross quarterback Joseph Wilber (16 of 23, 151 yards, two TDs last week) is a great leader, and the Parkview defense (81 yards allowed last week) may end up being one of the best in the classification.
If Parkview cuts down on mistakes (four turnovers, costly penalties vs. Peachtree Ridge) it can win. But Norcross is pretty darn good, and has big-play ability on both sides of the ball.
PREDICTION: Norcross 20, Parkview 14
Other Predictions
Last week's reord: 9-3
at East Coweta: Archer was impressive in its 46-7 win over Mountain View last week. It'll be tough to win at traditionally strong East Coweta, however. East Coweta 28, Archer 21
at : Lilburn-area rivals try to win first game of the season. Go with the Patriots. Berkmar 24, Meadowcreek 8
Clarke Central at : Our Central is better than their Central. Central Gwinnett 24, Clarke Central 17
at : Neither of these teams want to go 0-2, and after last week's losses, it's still hard to figure how good (or bad) each one is. When in doubt, take the home team. Collins Hill 24, Dacula 21
Gainesville at : Buford could have some trouble with this state-ranked team from Class AAAAA. Then you look at last year's score (Buford won 49-0). Buford 30, Gainesville 14
at Apalachee: Can the Spartans go 3-0? Yes, but it won't be easy. GAC 21, Apalachee 20
Lakeview Academy at : Hebron holds a 2-1 series lead over Lakeview, but that included a 10-7 loss at home last year. Lakeview (1-0) can score, but Hebron's season-opener will be a good one. Hebron 12, Lakeview 10
Pebblebrook at : Mountain View, which lost to Archer 46-7, faces a Pebblebrook team that was shut out by SW DeKalb last week. Pebblebrook narrowly missed the playoffs last year. Pebblebrook 14, Mountain View 10
at Oconee County: Lanier faces an Oconee team that won by four touchdowns last week. Oconee 32, Lanier 21
at : Watch out Broncos, Mill Creek is for real. This may come down to the final minutes. Brookwood gets home-field advantage. Brookwood 24, Mill Creek 21
Redan at : The Generals 2-0? You bet. Shiloh 20, Redan 14
at : South took a fast start and led state-ranked Norcross into the second half last week. The Comets need to play four quarters to beat Duluth, which is better than you might think. South Gwinnett 30, Duluth 24
Salem at : Salem, a Class AAAAA team, will make it difficult for Wesleyan to avoid a 0-2 start. Salem 17, Wesleyan 14

How much has it snowed in Hopkins?
If you join the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail & Snow (CoCoRaHS) Network, it could be you telling the National Weather Service how much snow falls locally, rather than the other way around.
CoCoRaHS is a national network of precipitation observers whose measurements of snow, rain and hail help the NWS and other federal weather agencies predict floods and droughts, and take account of the situation when severe weather hits.
Because Minnesota already had an existing backyard rain gauge network since the 1970s known as MNGage or HIDEN, Minnesota was one of the last states to join CoCoRaHS, according to Michelle Margraf, meteorologist and Central Minnesota CoCoRaHS cooordinator for the National Weather Service in Chanhassen.
The National Weather Service-Twin Cities is part of a national recruitment drive for volunteers in March. Last year Minnesota gained 100 new observers, Margraf said, for a current total of about 450 statewide and 200 in the Twin Cities (including both CoCoRaHS and MNGage/HIDEN observers).
Now observers in both networks feed information to the National Weather Service and other departments of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. CoCoRaHS volunteers enter their measurements via the internet, while some observers in areas without reliable internet connection submit data on paper.
Target Field in downtown Minneapolis was the first CoCoRaHS site in Minnesota—the Minnesota Twins having a vested interest in gauging rainout patterns.
Hennepin County has about 100 observers in the CoCoRaHS and HIDEN programs. (See map by clicking on PDF thumbnail, or at the CoCoRaHS website.)
CoCoRaHS wants you even if there is already an observer nearby in Hopkins, Magraf said. Precipitation can vary block-to-block—the more observers and measurements the NWS has to work with, the more accurate and effective its local, regional and national information can be.
And you don't have to make measurements every day. You choose your schedule—Magraf said some people only do rain observations and skip the snow. Or never on Wednesdays. Whatever—CoCoRaHS will be happy to have you, according to Magraf.

CHARLESTON, W.V. (AP) - Attorney General Darrell McGraw is warning West Virginia consumers to be wary of callers claiming to be agents with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration or law enforcement officers.
He says it's part of an international extortion scam.
McGraw said Wednesday the criminals running the scam typically target people who bought drugs over the Internet or by phone, then tell the victim the purchases were illegal.
The callers threaten legal action unless fines ranging from $100 to $250,000 are paid.
McGraw says the victims also often have fraudulent transactions posted against their credit cards.
The callers always ask for money to be wired to a destination, typically in Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic or Canada, threatening searches and arrests if they don't comply.
Victims should call McGraw's Consumer Protection Division.

FOUR OAKS — South Johnston's softball team, which returns seven starters from a team that advanced to the fourth round of the state 3A playoffs last season, has picked up right where it left off.
The Trojans improved to 3-0 with an 11-1, five-inning victory Wednesday over county rival West Johnston, a 4A regional finalist a year ago that was off to a 2-0 start this season.
A night earlier, South Johnston defeated a strong Wilson Beddingfield team 4-1.
"For the last two days, we have played at a very high level," South Johnston coach Mickey Bridgers said. "We have gotten excellent pitching. Last night, Lauren Higgins gave up three hits and struck out 12. Tonight, (Dinalee Spell) was around the plate consistently and gave up (three hits) against a solid West Johnston team. The girls came out ready to play and hustled and performed like they are capable of doing."
South scored two runs in the first inning against West, getting back-to-back two-out hits from Kayla Allen and Madison Byrd, who scored on an error.
The Trojans blew it open in the second, sending 12 batters to the plate and scoring eight runs to take a 10-0 lead.
Two walks and an error loaded the bases and Krista Collins drove home the first run of the inning with a sacrifice fly. Then the hits started coming, with Alex Woodall driving in two runs with a single to left field, Anna Webster driving in a run with an infield single and Spell driving an RBI double to the gap in right-center before the inning ended.
Spell, a sophomore right-hander, held the Wildcats hitless until the fifth inning. With the Trojans up 11-0 and ominous skies foretelling a storm, West Johnston opened the inning with its first hit, a single by Ashley McLaren, who was thrown out trying to steal second. Katelyn McLamb then drew a walk and went to third on a double by Alayna Parrish. McLamb scored on a bloop single to right by Jordan Hunt.
The next Wildcat batter struck out and South Johnston center fielder Alex Massengill made a nice running catch to end the game just as the rain started coming down in sheets.
Spell (1-0) gave up three hits, walked two and struck out five.
McLamb worked the whole game for West, giving up six hits, walking five and striking out two. The Wildcats made five errors.
"I wasn't surprised by (South Johnston's) level of play," West Johnston coach Warren Singleton said. "I was surprised by our inability to play tonight. We just didn't put our best foot forward tonight. We didn't get any hits until the last couple of at-bats and made some errors. It was just a bad night for us.
"We are going to chalk it up as a learning experience and make the necessary adjustments. We are going to meet them again next week and hopefully have a different outcome."
Bridgers has been pleased with the approach his team has taken to begin the season.
"We are performing at a level that you can tell that they are listening and consuming everything we are saying at practice, and they want to be good," Bridgers said. "That makes coaching a lot of fun."
Beating another Johnston County team is always special, Bridgers said.
"Johnston County high school softball is very competitive," Bridgers said. "We play everybody in Johnston County. Whether it's a conference Johnston County school or a nonconference school, we know we have to bring our 'A' game. We can't slack around and try to get by with a win. We have to play."
For its first three games this season, South Johnston has done just that – brought its "A" game every time it stepped on the field.

Gephardt: Fiscal Cliff Deal Will Cost Some Lawmakers Their Jobs
- By Chris Frates
- National Journal
- December 7, 2012
- Leave a comment
Getting a deal to avoid the fiscal cliff is going to cost some lawmakers their jobs.
"There are people who are going to have to vote for this and they're going to lose their next election. I can swear to you that's going to happen," former Democratic House Majority Leader Dick Gephardt told the Alley today.
And the difficulty in getting a deal is why Gephardt joined with former congressional leaders including former Republican House Speaker Dennis Hastert and former Senate majority leaders Tom Daschle, a Democrat, and Trent Lott, a Republican, to pen a letter to the editor in The Washington Post calling on the public to support President Obama and congressional leaders as they work to cut a deal.
"The men and women you elected and reelected will need your support in making difficult decisions and asking for the sacrifices we will all have to make. We ask that you join us in adding your voice to this national conversation," the former congressional leaders wrote.
The country's leaders don't need more input on what they should do; rather, they need to know the public supports a deal, Gephardt said.
"When you've been in a leadership position, and we all have in that group, you know how hard this is. And you know you don't need more ideas, you need support," Gephardt said.
Gephardt, a veteran of several epic spending and entitlement reform battles, is bullish about the chances that Obama and congressional leaders can work something out. But he expects any deal will be an interim down payment, mostly because there's not enough time to sell a bigger pact to the members.
"Getting the leaders to agree, that gets you four votes. You need a lot more," he said. "And you get them one by one and they're hard to get."

Annual Salary Survey
Participate in the 2013 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering's annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.

Serial suer Jonathan Lee Riches made a splash when he filed a wild letter in convicted wife-killer Drew Peterson's court case, but it wasn't the first legal action he's taken against the disgraced former Bolingbrook cop.
Riches, who has filed lawsuits against Bill Belichick, George W. Bush, Steve Jobs and Perez Hilton, sued Peterson and slain third wife Kathleen Savio back in January 2008.
At the time, Savio had been dead for nearly four years, Peterson was more than a year away from being charged with her murder, and Riches was doing time in a South Carolina federal prison for wire fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, and aiding and abetting.
In the 2008 lawsuit filed in California's Northern District, Riches accused Peterson and Savio of conspiring with the administrators of Williamsburg federal prison to deprive him of his money, rights and privileges.
Peterson and Savio put in the word to "freeze my funds and take all commissary away from me," Riches said in his lawsuit.
"I can't use the phone or see medical," Riches complained. "This is unconstitutional. I seek $33 million."
As shocking as Riches' lawsuit may have been at the time, he ratcheted up the freak factor more recently when he accused Peterson of forcing him to "commit identity theft to finance his sexual lifestyle."
Riches also claimed he and Peterson "were in a sexual relationship in the 1990's" and that Peterson "made" him have an affair with his missing fourth wife, Stacy Peterson.
Not only that, but Drew Peterson and Penn State football coach and child rapist Jerry Sandusky are already jailhouse pen pals, Riches said in his recent court filing.
Federal Judge Martin J. Jenkins dismissed Riches' 2008 lawsuit eight days after it was filed. In the same order, Judge Jenkins dismissed 59 other cases filed by Riches.
Jenkins' order called Riches' accusations "irrational, baseless or frivolous." The judge did not mention the Peterson and Savio matter by name in the explanation of his order to dismiss, but did point out that he believed "claims that actors Farrah Fawcett and Ryan O'Neal 'subjected' plaintiff to violent inmates" and "that the editor of 'Smart Money' magazine is 'picking on (his) brain and torturing (him) in solitary, squeezing (his) ideas'" were less than credible.

Is the arrival of Fall Getting You Down?
The winds of change are here, as the slight cool nip in the air has arrived, heralding the arrival of shorter days and longer nights. Even the squirrels sense the change in the season and are beginning the business of storing nuts for the winter.
Have you have begun looking for your warmer sweaters, scarves, jackets and jeans in preparation for the colder days ahead?
Are you feeling a bit more serious and less carefree than in the summer months?
Fall, according to Oriental medicine is associated with the Metal element, which governs order, communication, the mind, setting limits and protecting boundaries. It can be a great time of organizing your life for the winter season ahead and coming more inside your body and mind to reflect upon your life.
The Lung and Large Intestine are the internal organs related to Fall and the Metal Element. They both have the associations of 'letting go' of end products or waste. It is a good season to plan a colon cleanse with vegetable juicing or green smoothies, breathing in ginger steam inhalation to clean out and open up the sinuses and lungs, as well as time for facials to cleanse and nourish the skin.
Psychologically speaking, this phase is also about 'letting go' of grief, old attachments, and emotional baggage.
For busy moms and dads, and for those of you who have reached the mid-point of your life, this time of year can bring up feelings of loss. Shifting relationships, aging, loss of parents or spouse, kids growing older, leaving for college, financial or health issues, can all bring up the ideas of lost youth, mortality and lead to mid-life crises.
As the leaves start to shrivel up, turn red, orange, yellow, and brown, before falling to the ground and beginning their brilliant deaths, we, too, can take stock of our lives.
Examining your values, character flaws, intentions, mistakes, and milestones is an important process.
Before you make new plans for your life, it might make sense to first determine what you need to release in order to move your health, relationships, and life to the next level.
This process of self-reflection can be difficult, emotionally depressing, and sometimes downright scary, especially if you have never been through this process or have not done any excavating in awhile.
While this can be challenging, the other side is one of Liberation and Exhilaration! It can be a time to shine a light on what no longer works, and shed the vestiges of old approaches and the old you. It can be a wonderful opportunity to give yourself over willingly to the process of inquiry, curiosity and exploration of what this might mean for you.
If this is a difficult time of year for you, it might be a good idea to seek out help from your local Energy Medicine Practitioner for a balancing and healing session! The relaxing, releasing, and melting away of stress, sadness, and stagnation can revitalize your body & mind!
Autumn can be an opportunity to harvest all that you have become this past year. Perhaps begin with gratitude and appreciate the skills, relationships and experiences that have brought you to this place and time right now. These will be the things that will sustain you as things continue to shift and change.
In the golden haze and light of fall, open up your eyes to the tapestry of colors around you. Allow yourself to begin to see the distinct beauty and possibility in the Autumn's winds of change, so that you might imagine the bounty of things to come!
Check out my YOU TUBE VIDEO- a great ENERGY MEDICINE EXERCISE called RELEASING THE VENOM! You can use it right now to help you Release Stress & Uncomfortable Feelings!

3-D Printing: Is It The Future Of Custom Bikes?
By Leif Haven
I don't know a whole lot about made- in-San Francisco independent film. But I know what I like, and I love Monsturd, the story of a sewer-dwelling shit monster that's ultimately killed by flies. During the two years since the movie's release, I've put the cassette in the video recorder with the sound off during dinner parties, as a sort of passive parlor game.
"Monsturd sucks," notes my friend and regular dinner guest Ted. "But it's worth waiting for the part where the shit monster gets it on Ocean Beach."
Imagine my delight, then, when I learned that an aspiring San Francisco filmmaker and independent film producer, Greg Stephens, had put an initiative on November's ballot that would make it easier for cinéastes such as the men who made Monsturd to present their work to the public. The initiative, which Stephens calls "Save Our Theaters" and the election ballot will call Proposition L, would divert some $10.5 million a year of city tax money to a nonprofit entity, to be headed by Stephens, so he and a couple of his associates can buy up unused, old, single-screen movie theaters, then run them as venues for San Francisco independent films that otherwise wouldn't find viewers.
At first, this seemed like a smashing idea. You can't have too many screen-borne shit monsters, after all.
But the more I talked to Stephens, and the more I researched the reaction to my Monsturd screenings, the more I realized that it might not be beneficial to raid the public trough to give every S.F. filmmaking effort a public showing. At the very least, Stephens shouldn't be the one running such an operation.
For one thing, Stephens is, to put it mildly, an unknown quantity. And I'm still unclear on why, exactly, the cash-strapped city should cut other programs to give his formed-for-the-occasion organization $10.5 million a year. Perhaps just as troubling, Stephens would, if successful, create a San Francisco where government subsidies remove barriers to the screening of local independent films that currently have no hope of reaching viewers -- that's to say, the indie films that wallow in the mire below Monsturd.
"There are a lot of people with DV camcorders trying to make movies," warns Monsturd co-writer, co-director, co-star, and co-producer Rick Popko, whose movie inspired several budding amateur auteurs to send him unsolicited tapes of their work. "They're not trying very hard. Just because they have a camcorder and a bunch of friends who will act for free, they think they're moviemakers. But they're terrible."
Monsturd, the successful cream of this crop, it should be noted, is, as a film, a stinking pile of shit.
"Matt," explained my wife when interviewed for this article, "I never liked Monsturd."
"I'm a struggling filmmaker," Greg Stephens says by way of introduction when I call to ask him about his ballot initiative. The measure has been publicly denounced as a money-waster by the mayor, the entire Board of Supervisors, the San Francisco Film Society, the owners of San Francisco's single-screen movie theaters, and the city's already established theater-saving group, the San Francisco Neighborhood Theater Foundation.
San Francisco, which just slashed its way through a $352 million budget deficit, hardly needs to send $10.5 million per year to a group that was created purely as a receptacle for the money and "has no track record of running theaters or promoting the film industry," according to a ballot argument signed by the mayor and all city supervisors. There is no oversight on how the money will be spent, and "no government entity or agency can audit or review how 'Save Our Theaters' will use our funds," the ballot argument adds.
Yet Stephens presses forward. He says opponents haven't taken the time to study his proposal, which is all about freeing artists from the fetters of commerce.
"The issue is this: As an independent filmmaker, it's very hard to get in the business. The No. 1 obstacle facing independent filmmaking is exhibition and distribution. There's really a lack of exhibition space. What filmmakers really want, in terms of independent filmmakers, is a place to exhibit your work, get paid, get the buzz going, and get distribution."
"A lot of people would love to become artists, but they don't even attempt to do things, because they say, 'What's the point?'" Stephens continues. "On many levels, you hear the horror stories, you look into it. There's only a handful of people who have been able to stay independent and make a living, that have been able to stay free but also be able to survive."
To broaden access to this dream, Stephens -- who was described in a San Francisco Chronicle story as a former real estate developer, and who told me he's an inventor living on personal savings -- cooked up a ballot initiative that would divert a percentage of the hotel-occupancy tax to a theater-restoring organization that he, Stephens, would lead. The new organization would purchase and renovate old, empty theaters, show indie films in them, and, along the way, subsidize local filmmakers and encourage them to mentor disadvantaged youth and provide programs for seniors.

Your living room should be welcoming to family gatherings and visiting guests. The window treatments you choose should help create this inviting atmosphere while at the same time protecting your furnishing from harmful UV rays and tempering the heat gain from direct sunlight. Here are some ideas for living room window treatments to help you get started.
Living room window treatments such as sheer shades and semi-opaque cellular shades will softly filter light while blocking UV rays. Wood blinds and shutters can bring the warmth of real wood into your home while providing great light control and privacy. For rooms with a sliding door, there are great alternatives to the traditional vertical blind - instead, try a modern panel track blind or a vertical sheer blind. Many of these products come in fabrics that coordinate to other window treatments, such as roman shades, to give you a matching look for all your windows.
Specialty lift options can offer flexible choices for operation and light control. For windows that are very high or difficult to reach, motorized lift or tilt options available on many blinds and shades to let you control the shade remotely. Top down/bottom up is another great living room window treatment that lets in light from the top while maintaining privacy by keeping the bottom of the shade closed.

Stieger Retires as Softball Coach at Valparaiso
Monday, May 05, 2003Valparaiso University head softball coach Dr. Jerry Stieger has announced his retirement from coaching effective immediately.
Stieger cites increased academic demands that have been placed upon him with the addition of the Masters of Science Degree in Sports Administration that he will oversee. Stieger will remain at the university as the chairman of the Department of Physical Education.
?It is a difficult decision for me, but one that I make knowing that the future of the program is a bright one," Stieger said. ?The University has demonstrated its support for the program with not only building the softball field on campus, but also having plans in place for permanent seating, a press box, and an indoor hitting facility. When completed, it will be one of the best facilities not only in the conference but also in the region."
Stieger coached the Crusaders for five seasons, the longest tenure of any head coach in the program's history. In 2000, he guided the Brown and Gold to the Mid-Continent Conference Tournament, marking the first time Valpo qualified for postseason. Stieger was also very instrumental in the creation of the Valparaiso University Softball Field, the Crusaders new on-campus home.
?We are indebted to Dr. Stieger for providing stability to our softball program where we had been having a new coach about every year," Dr. William Steinbrecher, Valparaiso Director of Athletics said. ?It has become increasingly more difficult for him to take time away from his full-time position as chair of the University's physical education department and the addition of a new master's program makes it even more so. He has developed a solid base of players for a new coach to build upon."

The Daily Star
---- — Step Back in Time features news items from The Daily Star 25 and 50 years ago.
25 years ago
Oct. 1, 1988
Harold deGraw made his way down the darkened aisle, following the red dots of safety lights along the carpet. Then he hit the houselights, and the rococo cavern that is the Oneonta Theatre yawned overhead.
DeGraw, the deacon of Oneonta cinema, sold the 90-year-old theater Friday to two local men, Peter Van Woert and Philip Colone, Jr. As P&P Enterprises Inc., they will continue the two-screen operation.
Besides first-run feature films, Orpheus Theatre, Oneonta's community theater group, will continue entertaining there.
With many of the old theaters now cut up for multiple cinema operations, keeping the big 688-seat main floor space and the stage were important to deGraw. Partitioning was a concern as he looked for a buyer.
"If I sold to a circuit, that might have happened," said deGraw. "But these boys won't do that."
The theater was built for vaudeville and traveling theatrical groups, which rolled in and out of town on the trains. Stock companies played there exclusively until 1913, when movies began being run between shows.
That was the year deGraw was born in Clifton Springs.
DeGraw bought the Oneonta Theatre in 1966.
He "twinned" the theater in 1980, closing off the balcony to create a second 187-seat theater, rather than dividing the entire space down the middle.
"If I had done that, the stage would have been lost," he said.

ROXBURY — Several Roxbury people attended the Human Rights Rally Sunday, at the New York Hilton Hotel, to which 82 area Methodists left on a chartered bus from Fleischmanns.
There were altogether 6,500 people from 1,000 New York State Methodist churches, packed into a room which was built to accommodate 4,500. Intense interest was shown.
Roxbury people who went included James Ross, Bert Scutt, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Wheat, Rev. Richard R. Guice, and Stanley Martin, who represented the Methodist Youth Fellowship; also the Rev. and Mrs. Andrew Makhene of Johannesburgh, Republic of South Africa, who were weekend guests of the Rev. and Mrs. Richard Guice, Roxbury Methodist pastor.
Bishop Lloyd C. Wiekey of the New York area of the Methodist Church had summoned the rally for the purpose of stressing the Methodist stand on race, to review action taken to advance racial inequalities, to express their support of Civil Rights legislation and to urge action for integration in the local church and communities.

The Norman Transcript
NORMAN — Nike Football unveiled special uniforms Monday for the Oklahoma-Texas game. Both team jerseys will feature a classic gold Red River Rivalry patch above the numerals on the front of the jerseys, with those numbers outlined by gold twill.
Custom embroidery of "Boomer Sooner" for OU and "Longhorns" for Texas can be found on the inside of the jersey necklines. The Sooners' jersey also features an additional gold logo neck patch in reference to last year's victory as the Sooners retained the Golden Hat Trophy.
On Monday, OU coach Bob Stoops said discussions about doing something special with uniforms for the game began last year and it could happen again this season.
"Keeping up with the times, man. You gotta do it," he said. "Kids like to see it. We'll probably have some other stuff here and there … Gold accent looks pretty good."
When asked if it would ever go to the level schools like Oregon, Oklahoma State and Baylor have taken uniform combinations in recent years, Stoops said it wouldn't happen.
"Probably, not to that extreme," he said.
Players were pretty happy OU was willing try something a little different.
"We'll feel a little better; we'll feel like we look a little prettier but at the same time, it'll be good for us," cornerback Aaron Colvin said. "I see guys are excited about it, so it's cool."
Different uniform combinations have been the rage in recent years. Some potential recruits like the idea of it. Schools like Oregon, OSU and Baylor have benefited from the uniform talk.
The only thing different about OU's uniform Saturday will be the gold trim, but sometimes a little goes a long way.
"When you've been wearing the same thing for four and a half years, you put a little gold trim in there and you get excited — I promise," center Gabe Ikard said. "It's been in every group text I've gotten from anyone on this team. We're excited about it."
Perception vs. reality: Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops is 9-5 against Texas and will try to become the first Sooner coach to claim 10 wins in the Red River Rivalry.
While OU has won the 2000 national title and claimed eight Big 12 championships over the last 14 seasons, there's always been a perception the Sooners were doing it mostly with players Texas did not want.
Stoops wasn't buying that Monday.
"As far as recruiting, and I'm not comparing to them or anyone, but we like whatever stars we've got. We like our players. When we recruit a guy or decide to offer him, it isn't because of how many stars. We like how he fits. We may like some intangibles. We may like how tough he is. All kinds of different reasons. I feel we've got good players, too," he said. "Fortunately in some of these games, the last few, we've played well. You say me and Mack? Mack and I don't play. At the end of the day, it's players on the field. Last year we played well. Guys executed and played well in all parts of the games."
Stoops is currently tied with Barry Switzer and Bud Wilkinson with nine wins against the Longhorns. Switzer went 9-5-2 during his 16 seasons from 1973-1988. Wilkinson went 9-8 from 1947-63.
Nelson explores redshirt possibilities: Senior linebacker Corey Nelson will petition the NCAA for a medical redshirt following Saturday's season-ending pectoral injury against TCU.
"We'll start going through that whole process with our administration," Stoops said. "So we'll see where it leads."
Nelson, a senior, hasn't redshirted before, but has already played in the five games this season.
Phillips still
questionable: OU still doesn't know if defensive tackle Jordan Phillips will be able to play against Texas. He missed the TCU game due to a non-football related ailment. If he can't go, OU will rotate Jordan Wade and Torrea Peterson at the spot against Texas.
"It is all based on Jordan (Phillips') status for Saturday," defensive coordinator Mike Stoops said. "We have to wait and see what our rotation will be."
Cotton Bowl memories: Stoops will lead OU against Texas for the 15th Saturday. But he said he didn't have a favorite memory from the first 14 games.
"Any of the ones you win. I love them all. When you win, of course," he said. "When you win big, in those instances you get to enjoy the fourth quarter a little more. But what's more exciting than Roy Williams jumping over at the goal line and forcing a turnover to win the game? Those are fun. We had a shutout one time. Anytime you win it's special. You always remember certain plays from those wins."
OU-Kansas will begin at 2:30 p.m.: The Big 12 Conference announced Monday that the football game between the University of Oklahoma and Kansas on Oct. 19 is slated to kick off at 2:30 p.m. at Kansas Memorial Stadium.
The contest will be broadcast by ABC or ESPN or ESPN2.

Chad left North America on the 14 of November and he arrived in Perth Australia on the 16th. At the Perth concert he says that he didn't get to celebrate his birthday because it magically disappeared. So he said he would celebrate it in Perth. I was at the concert and was so happy when Ryan asked everyone to sing Chad happy birthday. It was amazing. The whole Perth Arena including me, sang him...
every nickelback fan should sing when we stand together (maybe video it) and raise money for the starving people in the world. what do you fans think? nickelback would recieve the much deserved respect and become even bigger.
i hate when people are nasty to nickelback. they say some really mean things, like that guy on facebook saying a pickle has more likes. i think they should just stay out of it. if they don't like them then they should just keep it to themselves. nickelback is awesome and always will be!
My younger sister plays the drums and Daniel Adair is her idol and inspiration. She would love nothing better than to have him sign her drum sticks for her when I go the their Here and Now concert in Australia. Is this request possible? We both love Nickelback more than anything else. I can't wait 'till you guys come down under!

But she found a renewed motivation when she started practicing the martial arts.
"Since I began training in the martial arts in my mid-40s, working out is (benefiting) both mind and body, and it is challenging and fun, rather than something I have to do just to stay in shape. I look forward to training and continuing to improve," Maccabee said.
For those who don't exercise as intensely as Maccabee does, Reames said that baby boomers need to be aware that they can't be a "weekend warrior" who competes at top form for one day and then needs days to recover. To avoid this, Reames said to be aware that you might not be able to compete in the same activities, or at the same level, that you did when you were in your 20s.
Some activities Reames recommends for baby boomers are weightlifting and body resistance exercises.
Weightlifting is good for developing bone mass, and can help women fight osteoporosis, Reames said. According to the IHRSA, calcium alone may not strengthen bones, and strength and aerobic exercises might also be needed. The IHRSA recommends that older adults should spend at least two days a week focusing on muscle-strengthening activities that involve all of the major muscle groups: the legs, hips, chest, back, abdomen, shoulders and arms.
To target some of those key muscle groups, Reames suggests doing squats and lunges, which not only help build muscle, but also mimic activities people do in real life -- such as picking things up and climbing stairs.
However, Reames reminds you that you should use caution when performing any physical activity. He suggests staying away from fast, quick movements that don't allow you to have complete control over your body, as they might put your body through something its not ready for. Also, he says to pay attention to your form -- and your posture -- while doing the exercises, and to listen to your body.
"If it hurts, don't do it," Reames said. "Pain is your body's method of communicating."
Reames also suggests always warming up before you partake in any activity -- even if you're just planning on cleaning out the garage -- and to also listen to your doctor's advice, as he or she knows exactly what your body can and cannot do.
Exercise Can Be Cost-Effective
If the economy has you shying away from a gym membership, the IHRSA encourages you to compare the long-term costs of exercise versus health care.
According to the IHRSA, a 2008 study of people who averaged at least two health club visits per week over two years spent at least $1,252 less in health care costs than did those people who went to the club less than once a week.
The organization also said that obese adults who are more than 30 pounds overweight have medical costs that are $5,000 to $21,000 higher than those of healthy weight individuals.
Turn Your Home Into A Gym
If joining a gym still doesn't fit into your budget, or maybe you just don't like the gym atmosphere, Reames has tips for how you can get in shape at home.
"When I walk into a house, I see a gym," Reames said.
Some of the fitness expert's suggestions include filling up water bottles to use as weights, using inexpensive elastic bands for resistance; getting on the floor for push-ups, squats and abdominal work; using a chair for dips to work your shoulders and triceps; and getting in your cardiovascular work by taking a walk outside.

Point Spread: -2/-105 Boston
Free Play for 2/10/12
Boston Celtics -2
The Key: The Nuggets are playing extremely well. They have won 9 in a row and covered the number 8 times during this run. However, I believe their winning streak comes to an end here. Boston is also playing well, having won 6 in a row SU and ATS. Plus, it is at home where it is 18-9 this season (Denver is just 11-15 on the road) and it finds itself in a more advantageous scheduling spot. The Celtics have had 2 full days of rest while the Nuggets will be playing their second game in as many days and their third in four days. The home team and the favorite have ruled this series. The home side is 13-3 ATS in the last 16 meetings, and the favorite is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings. Also, the Nuggets are just 1-5 ATS in the last 6 meetings at Boston with each of these 5 defeats coming by at least 5 points. Lay the deuce.

Curtains crumbling to dust, water stains on the floor — not a creepy, abandoned house, but the Muskogee High School theater.
When putting on vibrant musicals, like the recent production of "Guys and Dolls," the students have to find creative ways to camouflage the deteriorating equipment — most of it original to 1967 when the stage was built, said Penny McGill, drama teacher.
"We have drainage issues too. We've literally had to build platforms in the orchestra pit in case it rains," McGill said. "Our curtains are original to the building, and we can't even sew them together anymore. They are literally turning to dust."
So the theater group has applied for a contest to win $5,000 to help make needed repairs — and Muskogee High School needs the public to vote.
MHS is one of 30 schools from across the nation that has been named as a finalist in NBC's "Smash" Make a Musical Constructed by Lowe's, according to the contest website.
The program will help five winning schools improve their theater facilities. Schools compete to receive the most online votes before April 10. MHS is the only Oklahoma school named as a finalist.
McGill said, though $5,000 is only a "drop in the bucket" of what the department needs, she'd be thrilled to have it.
"When we put on a show we have to beg, borrow and rent to put on the best show possible for these kids," she said. "I think we do a good job of finding creative ways to camouflage the problems, but this would help us at least replace the curtains and the lighting."
Luci Whitaker is a sophomore student who participates in the high school musicals at MHS. Whitaker said being a part of the MHS theater program is extremely important to the students.
The most recent musical, "Guys and Dolls," featured more than 50 high school students in roles, as backstage crew and in the orchestra, she said.
"Anyone you ask will tell you this is so important to us," she said. "It's about the friends you make, the experience you have and the memories."
Last season, "NBC's 'Smash': Make a Musical" created musical theater programs in schools by giving educators and students the tools and training they needed to build self-sustaining programs in under-served schools, according to a media release.
The partnership was the catalyst for iTheatrics to produce 170 "Make a Musical" programs in schools across the United States, with "NBC's Smash': Make a Musical" being directly responsible for creating 30 additional musical theater programs.
