RIO DE JANEIRO -- Brazil will hold its first auction of pre-salt oil exploration acreage under the country' s new production-sharing regime in October, one month earlier than expected.
Brazil' s National Energy Policy Council, or CNPE, announced the decision in Thursday' s Federal Register. The first area up for bidding will be the Libra prospect, which local regulators estimate could hold as much as 16 billion barrels of recoverable crude. Brazil' s National Petroleum Agency, or ANP, had originally said it would hold the auction in November.
The pre-salt auction will follow the country' s successful sale of oil and natural gas exploration concessions earlier this month, which raised about $1.4 billion in signing bonuses. The acreage in the auction, Brazil' s first in five years, was sold under concession agreements that give oil companies control over exploration and development in return for royalties on crude oil and natural gas production.
Under the new production-sharing regime, Brazilian state-run energy giant Petrobras, will be the operator of the pre-salt areas and hold a minimum 30% stake. Winning bids will be determined by the amount of profit oil, or oil produced after development costs, that companies agree to give the Brazilian government.
The main pre-salt oil fields lie in the Santos basin off the coast of Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo states, under about 2,000 m of water and a further 5,000 m below sand, rocks and salt.

The Obama administration's recently-announced HHS regulations, which would require Catholic institutions to subsidize health insurance coverage that provides sterilization, abortifacient drugs, and contraceptives, should be located within the context of the administration's three-year long effort to define religious freedom down.
As the administration has demonstrated in its international human rights policy, it regards religious freedom as a kind of privacy right: the right to freedom of worship, which the administration seems to regard as analogous to any other optional, recreational activity. No serious student of religious freedom, however, takes the redefinition of religious freedom as freedom-to-worship seriously. For if that redefinition were true, there would be "religious freedom" in Saudi Arabia, so long as the "worship" in question were conducted behind closed doors. And that is manifestly absurd.
The HHS regulations announced on January 20 are one domestic expression of defining-religious-freedom-down. The administration does not propose to, say, restore the 1970 ICEL translations of the prayer-texts of the Mass; that, even HHS might concede, is a violation of religious freedom. But the administration did not think it a violation of religious freedom for its Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to try and overturn the longstanding legal understanding which held that religious institutions have a secure First Amendment right to choose their ministers by their own criteria—until it was told that it had gone way over the line in January's Hosanna-Tabor Supreme Court decision (a judicial smackdown in which the administration's own Court nominees joined).
Now, with the HHS "contraceptive mandate" (which, as noted above, is also a sterilization and abortifacent "mandate"), the administration claims that it is not violating the First Amendment by requiring Catholic institutions to provide "services" that the Catholic Church believes are objectively evil. That bizarre claim may well be another constitutional bridge too far. But the very fact that the administration issued these regulations, and that the White House press secretary blithely dismissed any First Amendment concerns when asked whether there were religious freedom issues involved here, tell us something very important, and very disturbing, about the cast of mind in the Executive Branch.
It is no exaggeration to describe that cast of mind as "soft totalitarianism": an effort to eliminate the vital role in health care, education, and social service played by the institutions of civil society, unless those institutions become extensions of the state.

Funner is a word.
There is absolutely no doubt. It may not be an ACCEPTED 'proper word, but all the same it is a word. Anything noise that two people can understand is a word.
Ain't is a word. Funner is a word. Funnest is a word.
In the past people probably didn't think 'doesn't' was a proper word.
In my opinion, the word is standard when Spell Check accepts it.
Yes, Kelly…but "hot" is an adjective. "Fun" is a noun. If you were to look at the noun that coincides with "hot", that would be "heat". We do not add "er" and "est" to that word (not counting "heater" in its noun form). "It is heatest while not standing in the shade." That's why, despite MW including it, "funner" is not acceptable.
"Yes, Kelly…but "hot" is an adjective. "Fun" is a noun." This is Incorrect. Merriam-Webster defines fun as a noun or adjective. You can say that you had "a fun evening" so it clearly can be used as an adjective. Therefore, words "funner" or "funnest" should be considered actual words as long as words such as "hotter" and "longest" are acceptable. Debate over.
Kelly, after reading this entire post, I feel the need to commend you! I appreciate your direct responses & your clear (and supported) logic. I am especially impressed that, though a bit of sarcasm did show through once or twice, you never once began your response with, "Okay, Idiot…" I have to admit that phrase came to my mind several times as I read the posts of those who chose to argue with you – those who, obviously, had not read your previous posts before granting us insight into their deep ignorance. Thanks for posting this! I found it insightful, informative as well as somewhat amusing.

Sling-It Lacrosse stringing guru Jordan Ambler and I have been stringing sticks together since middle school. Despite the fact that we went to different high schools, we'd meet at what used to be California Lacrosse Company and spend time stringing and shooting, pushing each other to perfect our sticks. The one thing we always had in common was that we both believed that mesh was the way to go. It's easy to string, low maintenance, and it lasts as long as you take care of it. What's not to love?
We've featured Jordan's stringing before because it's so fundamentally sound. Simple, few bells and whistles, extremely pragmatic.
Well in a wild turn of events, I received these photos via text message yesterday from the Jambler himself. He's gone to the dark side, but this isn't your grandpa's traditional…
Jordan was working with a pretty limited set of tools because he wanted to spend as little money as possible and still string a game-ready traditional pocket. He WAITED for a women's stick to be returned broken so he could unstring the synthetic leathers that come in many women's heads, hoping they'd stretch less and be unaffected by weather. He then used leftover sidewall (ew) instead of cross lace because there was none laying around.
Now I'm not a particularly big fan of the Gait Torque head he used, because I string mesh. It's a difficult head to string the way I do things because of the big open holes, some of which are in two different places side-by-side on the top half of the sidewall. But Jordan told me how well this head lent itself to stringing a traditional pocket. He said he never had to second guess which holes he was going to use, and the holes on the inside of the sidewall actually played a huge part in stringing the upper diamonds, whereas with mesh I might have avoided these holes entirely.
I already tried to convert to the dark side once having famed UVA and Harvard stringer Lyle Tomlinson whip one up for me. Unfortunately it didn't take. I'm stubborn, stuck in my ways. But after this text message, I dropped a head off at Sling-It Lacrosse to see what the Jambler can do for me. I'll post it as soon as I get it back.

Unfortunately my fiance is very, very set on the first name Ace for a boy name. My 2 children's names are Alexander and Elizabeth, which Ace doesn't go with my "classical" theme. He wont budge, and had this name picked out when I first met him. I have choice on a girl's name and I'm really liking Charlotte Josephine.

We will share the names once we have decided. We know the girls middle name will be lynn but we can't agree on a first name. The boys name will be Shelby Alan. My BF absolutely loves Carroll Shelby (he made old cars) in fact Matt has a Shelby 427. And alan is his middle name.

For our first line of shirts, we couldn't bring ourselves to call it the Resort Collection. We're just not that fancy.
We settled on "The Vacation Collection." It's all you need for a short getaway.
"Round, round get around, I get around."
Can't you just hear the Beach Boys playing when you look at this shirt? When Max was a little kid, his dad had a shirt with a similar Bengal stripe that he'd wear all summer long, particularly while driving with the top down and the tunes turned way, way up. The Beach Boys tape had a photo of the band wearing a similar shirt, which Max later learned was actually part of their touring uniform.
A few years ago, at the American shirt factory where the Vacation Shirts are made, Max asked the ladies to make a copy his dad's shirt. And to this day, it consistently makes its way to the top of the pile.
Anytime he wears it around Joe, the first thing he hears is, "Make me one of those." Joe, consider this an early Christmas present.
The pinpoint is the most comfortable and versatile of basic shirting fabrics. Lightweight, it is a shirt that can be worn all year long.
Max washes and dries his in the crazy machines in his apartment. These will shrink and after one wash, they soften right up. Occasionally, he'll give it a nice press as well.
Made to our specifications. We add the red thread in the button on the back of the collar and on the placket's final button hole, which is sewn horizontally for comfort, as a nod to the tinkering engineer who marks any changes to his machinery with a dot of red paint.
The slightly enlarged chest pocket includes a buttoned flap for closure. Fits your passport and a pair of sunglasses, no problem.

I've been working on my family genealogy for several years. I'm willing to add information to any of my memorials if someone contacts me with missing information. I do ask that you provide good documentation with the information. I do not consider Family Search trees, Ancestry trees or family genealogies as good sources. I've looked at many trees and have several family genealogies. All have mistakes in them that in this day of computers I have been able to find different and better information for the person. You are welcome to add pictures to any of my memorials. Since nearly all of my memorials are those of relatives of mine except for Elizaville Cemetery memorials, I am not willing to transfer my memorials.
Many of my memorials site the paper and date of an obituary. If someone would like a copy, please contact me and I'll email it to you.

- Three-inch toy gun sparks security flap at London Gatwick
- Delta, Egyptair among airlines suspending Cairo flights
Reports: Thai airline recruits 'third-sex' attendants
The president of a start-up carrier in Thailand has described himself as a "pioneer" for being the airline boss in that nation to seek out transsexuals as flight attendants.
Fledgling airline PC Air has already recruited six crew of the "third sex" and boss Peter Chan said recruitment, driven by a belief in equal rights, would continue.
"I think these people can have many careers – not just in the entertainment business – and many of them have a dream to be an air hostess," Chan tells the London Telegraph. "I just made their dream come true. Our society has changed. It's evolution. I'm a pioneer and I'm sure there will be other organizations following my idea."
Transsexuals -- also known as "Ladyboys" -- are not uncommon in Thailand, which has one of the world's biggest transsexual populations.
The Telegraph says the transsexuals hired to work at PC Air "will wear special gold-colored 'third sex' name badges to help passengers and immigration staff to easily identify the gender they are faced with."
Thailand's Nation newspaper says Thanyarat "Film" Jiraphatpakorn was among PC Air's first batch of successful "third-sex" applicants.
The 23-year-old Jiraphatpakorn, winner of the Miss Tiffany beauty pageant in 2007, tells the Nation she was thrilled to land the position.
"At first I thought they would just take applications but not actually recruit us, as happened at other places before," she adds.
PC Air says it hopes to begin operations by April, operating charter flights from Thailand to destinations in Asia.

Brendan Gleeson Talks THE GUARD, SAFE HOUSE, AT SWIM-TWO-BIRDS and More
by Sheila Roberts Posted 3 years, 138 days ago
Brendan Gleeson turns in another memorable, must-see performance in The Guard as Sergeant Gerry Boyle, an eccentric small-town cop with a confrontational and crass personality who reluctantly partners with FBI agent Wendell Everett (Don Cheadle) to track down elusive drug traffickers. A longtime policeman in County Galway, Boyle's a maverick with his own moral code, a jaundiced outlook and a subversive sense of humor. He's indifferent to what others think of him and he enjoys keeping them guessing as to his intelligence.
We sat down with Gleeson at a roundtable interview to talk about his new comedy crime film, a darkly funny fish-out-of-water tale of murder, blackmail, drug trafficking and rural police corruption written and directed by John Michael McDonagh. Gleeson also discussed his upcoming projects including the recently completed CIA thriller Safe House starring Ryan Reynolds and Denzel Washington and At Swim-Two-Birds, a project he's adapted from Flann O'Brien's acclaimed 1938 novel and hopes to direct next Spring. Hit the jump for more.

of all, I want to make it crystal clear that I do not condone
nor do I agree with the recent comments made by Atlanta
Braves pitcher John Rocker. His characterization of a black
teammate as "a fat monkey" was probably the most
inflammatory comment he made in a recent Sports Illustrated
article yet the politically correct crowd hardly noticed.
They were too busy ranting and raving over his comments
about foreigners in New York. Here's the comment that sent
the PCers into a rage: "The biggest thing I don't like
about New York are the foreigners," Rocker said. "I'm
not a very big fan of foreigners. You can walk an entire
block in Times Square and not hear anybody speaking English.
Asians and Koreans and Vietnamese and Indians and Russians
and Spanish people and everything up there. How the hell
did they get in this country?" Xenophobic? Probably.
Stupid? Definitely. But crazy?
Rocker's fate is decided, he's been sent on a couch trip.
The PCers were so stunned that someone could be so insensitive
toward foreigners that they figured he must be nuts so he
was ordered to undergo psychiatric evaluation by the baseball
commissioner. But professional sports is replete with bad
boys who do bad things. In 1996, James Harris, Minnesota
Vikings defensive end, pleaded guilty to third degree assault
for beating his wife. Montreal Expos pitcher Carlos Peres
was arrested in 1995 on rape charges in Atlanta. Most recently,
Denard Walker of the Tennessee Titans was arrested for beating
his girlfriend. She charged, and the bruises on her neck
would indicate, that he was trying to kill her. He pleaded
guilty to assault and the story was covered up for six months
then greeted by yawns from the PCers when it finally did
surface. The number of sports figures who have been busted
for drugs is too vast to enumerate here. And who can forget
Dennis Rodman. He butts the head of an official, kicks a
cameraman in the groin, shows up at games covered in tattoos
and green hair and makes an appearance in New York City
donning a wedding dress yet his sanity is never questioned!
Rocker's bosses have had their share of trouble. In May
of 1995, Atlanta Braves manager Bobby Cox was jailed briefly
and charged with simple battery after police broke up a
domestic dispute between Cox and his wife. Braves owner
Ted Turner made a provocative comment, among the many for
Captain Outrageous, that Christianity is a "religion
for losers," a comment which millions of church-goers
found offensive. Not one of the PCers ever suggested that
Turner or Cox was a candidate for the laughing academy.
Why? Because political correctness is, itself, discriminatory.
Only in its warped value system will you find the offense
of speaking your mind, as stupid as that speech may be,
to be more egregious than domestic violence, drug abuse
and assault. Only in the twisted minds of the politically
correct is it determined that the John Rockers of the world
are crazy and dangerous and must be ejected from professional
sports while the Denard Walkers and Dennis Rodmans are stable
and should be allowed to stay. The PCers have become the
sole arbiters of what is offensive and who is offended while
officials of professional sports stand dutifully by awaiting
their orders. We, as sports fans, have become willing accomplices
by not demanding that these issues be dealt with in proper
proportion to the offense.
old adage that actions speak louder than words is turned
on its head when reason is drowned out by the din of political
correctness. If you want to know the truth, the wrong person
is on the couch.

The SEC yield is an annualized yield based on the most recent 30 day period.
In order to provide additional information regarding the intra-day value of shares of the Fund, the NYSE Arca, Inc. or a market data vendor disseminates every 15 seconds through the facilities of the Consolidated Tape Association or other widely disseminated means an updated Indicative NAV ("iNAV") for the Fund as calculated by an information provider or market data vendor. The Fund is not involved in or responsible for any aspect of the calculation or dissemination of the iNAV and makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the iNAV.
Net Asset Value (NAV) represents an ETFs per-share value. The per-share value of an ETF is calculated by dividing the total value of the securities in its portfolio, less any liabilities, by the number of ETF shares outstanding. ETF shares are valued as of the close of regular trading (normally 4:00 P.M. Eastern Time) (The "NYSE Close") on each business day.
The Net Asset Value (NAV), Shares Outstanding and Total Net Assets are calculated as of the close of regular trading on each day that the NYSE Arca is open, and do not reflect security transactions or fund shares created or redeemed on the date stated. Such transactions are recorded on the next business day and reported on the website the following business day.
Returns are average annualized total returns, except for those periods of less than one year, which are cumulative. Market returns are based upon the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00 pm Eastern time (when NAV is normally determined for most Funds), and do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times.
A word about risk: Investing in the bond market is subject to certain risks, including market, interest rate, issuer, credit and inflation risk; investments may be worth more or less than the original cost when redeemed. High yield, lower-rated securities involve greater risk than higher-rated securities; portfolios that invest in them may be subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risk than portfolios that do not. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities may be sensitive to changes in interest rates, subject to early repayment risk, and while generally supported by a government, government-agency or private guarantor, there is no assurance that the guarantor will meet its obligations. Investing in foreign-denominated and/or -domiciled securities may involve heightened risk due to currency fluctuations, and economic and political risks, which may be enhanced in emerging markets. The value of most bond strategies and fixed income securities are impacted by changes in interest rates. Bonds and bond strategies with longer durations tend to be more sensitive and more volatile than securities with shorter durations; bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise.
Barclays Global Credit Hedged USD contains investment grade and high yield credit securities from the Multiverse represented in US Dollars on a hedged basis, (Multiverse is the merger of two groups: the Global Aggregate and the Global High Yield). It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index.

HANOVER, Va. (AP) - A 13-year search for a Hanover County malicious wounding suspect is over.
Hanover sheriff's spokesman Chris Whitley says 39-year-old Jerry Otis Robinson was arrested without incident Wednesday in Louisa County. He's being held without bond pending an Oct. 4 preliminary hearing.
Robinson was wanted in the Jan. 29, 1999, shooting of a woman in Mechanicsville. The victim survived.
The sheriff's office continued to search for Robinson through the years. The Richmond Times-Dispatch reports ( http://bit.ly/OBGCGk) that Robinson's case was featured on the America's Most Wanted television series and its website three times.
An anonymous tip led authorities to Robinson.

Windows 7 64bit
Windows search - is it useless or is it just me ?
I have a lot of files on my USB drive that i want indexed by windows search. I have
added my drive to the list of locations to index (in "Change how windows searches"). I find that windows search will find NOTHING on my drive. I have a lot of ".doc" files and if i type "*.doc" it finds none.
If i remove my drive from the list of locations to index it does find the files but takes a long time (as i would expect ). A few other things ...
- My USB drive is formatted NTFS.
- If I right click on the drive, the "allow files on this drive to have contents indexed" is checked
- The indexing service is running
- SYSTEM has full access to all files on the disk
I have tried all sorts to get it working including ...
- Rebuilding the index using the REBUILD button in the IndexingOptions->AdvancedOptions dialog
- Manually removing the whole index, rebooting and then re-indexing
- Stopping and restarting the indexing service
- Leaving it turned on for the whole day with no user activity to give it a chance to build the index.
Thanks for any help/pointers

Is populism stalking the Andes again?
- By Ian Bremmer<p> Ian Bremmer is president of Eurasia Group and author of the newly released Every Nation for Itself: Winners and Losers in a G-Zero World. </p>
By Erasto Almeida
News that reputable surveys show nationalist candidate Ollanta Humala is the frontrunner in Peru's presidential race after overtaking former president Alejandro Toledo forced a recalibration in markets about the dynamics in the race and its possible implications. But concerns about Humala are overblown and he is unlikely to join Presidents Evo Morales of Bolivia, Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, and Rafael Correa of Ecuador as a populist president. There is in fact less to this than meets the eye. While Humala's rise in the polls reflects a desire for change among the electorate that most have observers have underestimated, he is unlikely to win, if, as appears likely, he faces former president Alejandro Toledo in a run-off.
The latest opinion polls show Humala continuing to gain ground. According to an Ipsos/Apoyo poll released on March 27, Humala now leads with 21 percent support (up from 17 percent a week ago and 15 percent two weeks ago), while support for former president Alejandro Toledo has dropped to 20 percent (down from 23 percent a week ago and 26 percent two weeks ago). Keiko Fujimori ran third with 19 percent and was followed by Pedro Pablo Kuczynski with 15 percent and Luis Castaneda with 14 percent. Another poll with ballots conducted by Datum and released on 25 March showed Toledo still ahead with 19.4 percent support, followed by Humala with 17.6 percent, Pedro Pablo Kuczynski with 17.5 percent, Keiko Fujimori with 16.1 percent, and Luis Castaneda with 15.5 percent. The results suggest the race is very tight, but recent trends indicate that Humala will probably be in the run-off.
The question is who he will face. The odds that Toledo will make it to the run-off have diminished, but the chances of him winning in the second round are still slightly above 50 percent. Toledo appears to be losing support among the poor, which is problematic for him. If current trends continue and Humala gains ground, Toledo could fall to third behind Fujimori. But Toledo's appeal balances change and centrist moderation and could staunch any further declines. He could also benefit from campaign dynamics. As the frontrunner, he faced more attacks than other candidates, something his opponents may also face as the race tightens. If Fujimori loses support to Humala among the poor, Toledo could actually benefit. Also, potential Kuczynski voters may shift to Toledo.
If Toledo makes it to the run-off, he would probably be able to isolate and defeat Humala as President Alan Garcia did in 2006. In fact, Toledo's centrist profile puts him in a better position than Fujimori or Kuczynski to repeat President Alan Garcia's strategy in 2006. The 2006 run-off was not a choice between radical change and the establishment. Garcia instead sold himself as representing moderate change while questioning Humala's nationalism by pointing to his ties with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.
But if Toledo doesn't make it to the run-off, Humala would have the edge. None of the other candidates are likely to run a viable race. Keiki Fujimori has problems casting herself as pro-change given her family connections, while both Kuczynski and Castaneda are too closely tied to the establishment.
Even if Humala were to win, the issue is how much he could push policy to the left. He would probably push the limits on macro and microeconomic policy, but radical change is unlikely given his own preferences (he has repeatedly stressed a commitment to stability) and significant institutional constraints. His party would not have a majority in congress, so it would be difficult to, for example, undermine the autonomy of the central bank or abrogate contracts. The end result would probably be a gradual deterioration in the policy outlook, but not the populist regimes seen in in some neighboring countries.

In a typical nutritional therapy consultation, I will assess the individual's general health, family and health history, dietary habits, digestive function and lifestyle. I will then devise a dietary and lifestyle plan suitable for the individual's circumstances with the aim of addressing the individuals health goals. This may include dietary adjustments, suggestions for dietary support, lifestyle changes and food or botanical supplement recommendations.
Sometimes my work requires the interpretation of test results brought to me by clients. These tests may have been ordered by other Nutritional Therapists or a General Practitioner or other clinician. The results of the tests help me to better understand the unique nutritional needs of my clients.
I may also request functional tests from time to time. These are chosen to add useful information to my decision making process concerning current and future food, supplement and lifestyle suggestions. A number of laboratories make these tests available to nutritional therapists, and my role is to relate the test results to my patient and find out if there are any specific nutritional deficiencies. The aim is always to help each client achieve an optimal level of wellness through the use of careful and individualised dietary and lifestyle modification.
Some of the functional tests that I may use are:
Tests are sometimes paid for or refunded by insurance companies, but are mostly the responsibility of the individual.

|Directory and Class Structure
Directory structure
The patTemplate directory structure was modeled after the PEAR concept. The main class patTemplate is located in the file patTemplate.php in the root folder (or in /pat if you installed it using the PEAR installer). This is the only file you need to include directly.
You will also find a directory 'patTemplate' which contains all modules of patTemplate. In this directory there's a Module.php file, which contains the class patTemplate_Module that acts as a base class for all different kinds of modules like Functions, Modifiers, Readers, etc. Furthermore you'll find a file for each of the modules that can be used in patTemplate like Reader.php, Function.php, TemplateCache.php, etc. These files contain the base classes for the modules you may create.
In the patTemplate folder there are several folders, which help you organize the actual modules. The readers are in patTemplate/Reader, the functions in patTemplate/Functions, etc.
That means, if you create a new modifier that should be used in the templates as 'FooMod', you will have to place it in a file called patTemplate/Modifier/FooMod.php otherwise patTemplate will not be able to locate it.
Class trees
patTemplate is fully object oriented code. That means all patTemplate have to be classes. Most of the classes are quite simple and you only have to implemnt one or two methods. But nevertheless they have to be classes, as they must not pollute the global namespace.
The files and directories map directly to the classnames. That means, patTemplate.php contains a class called 'patTemplate' and the file patTemplate/Reader.php contains the class patTemplate_Reader. If you create a reader that should be able to read templates from a database, you should place it into patTemplate/Reader/DB.php and call the class 'patTemplate_Reader_DB'.
If you do not follow these simple rules, patTemplate will currently not be able to load and instantiate the module and your application will break.

Our Town is a three act play by Thornton Wilder that is set in the fictional community of Grover's Corners, New Hampshire, which is based loosely on the actual town of Peterborough, N.H. (At the time, Wilder's residence was at the MacDowell Colony in Peterborough.) It is a story of character development that details the interactions between citizens of an everyday town in the early 20th century through their everyday lives (particularly the lives of George Gibbs, a doctor's son, and Emily Webb, the daughter of a newspaper editor). Our Town opened on February 4, 1938 in New York City at Henry Miller's Theatre, and later moved to the Morosco Theatre. The play was produced and directed by Jed Harris.[1]
The play won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1938.[2] It was adapted into a film in 1940 and a television musical starring Frank Sinatra and others in 1955.
The play, when staged, is often self-aware with many characters breaking the fourth wall and addressing the audience. Traditionally, it is performed with little or no scenery, set, or props often with many of the characters miming the objects they interact with and their surroundings. Often the only props used are those that are more difficult to mime and/or signify important physical positions including chairs, tables, and ladders. Also, the scene in which Emily and George share homework answers through their windows is traditionally performed with the two actors standing atop separate ladders to simulate elevated windows of neighboring houses.
Wilder's use of archetypes and stereotypes appeal to average families and make this play a "timeless classic." Beginning with the routine and tiny necessities of daily life, the audience is exposed to the intimate and habitual life of a real American family. Emily Webb and George Gibbs are portrayed as the familiar "girl and boy next door"; George is stereotyped as the athletic jock, while Emily's studious habits mark her intelligence. Their marriage is the standard of any other: filled with doubts and apprehensions. Our Town's strong grasp on its audience last through the finale of the play, when the ghost of Emily Gibbs visits an "unimportant" day in the past. Through this transaction, Wilder conveys the meaning and significance of the little pleasures in life. The theme of daily life and routine is once again brought back into the play. The magnitude of small town America, with its slow-moving culture and relaxed atmosphere, is revealed. Because these life lessons are relevant even to today's fast-paced culture, the timelessness of Our Town is underscored.
Throughout the play, the omniscient Stage Manager conducts the story being told, taking questions from the audience, describing the locations and making key observations about the world he or she creates for the audience. This "man of the hour" also plays several different but key roles within the story he or she tells, such as a preacher and the owner of a soda shop.
Act One (Daily Life)
The play begins with the Stage Manager providing a description of the town. After this are scenes within the Gibbses' and Webbs' homes of both families preparing their children for school. The Stage Manager then guides the audience through a day in the life of the town. He also has Professor Willard, a long-winded local historian, and Mr. Webb, editor of the Grover's Corners Sentinel, talk about the town. After a scene within the Congregational Church, Mrs. Webb, Mrs. Gibbs, and Mrs. Soames discuss Simon Stimson. Stimson is the church organist with a reputation for being a drunkard. Due to his non-conforming nature, he is often the subject of the town's gossip. The act also includes a scene in which George and Emily discuss George's trouble in school, foreshadowing a future relationship. The subject of "daily life" addressed throughout this act stereotypes the average "American family".
Act Two (Marriage and Love)
Three years pass and George and Emily announce their plans to wed. The day is filled with stress, topped off by George's visit to the Webbs' home. There, he meets Mr. Webb, who tells George of Mr. Webb's father's advice, telling George to treat Emily like property and never respect her needs. Mr. Webb continues to say that he did the exact opposite of his father's advice and has been happy since. Mr. Webb concludes by telling George to never take advice from anyone on matters of that nature. The wedding follows, where George, in a fit of nervousness, tells his mother that he is not ready to marry. Emily, too, tells her father of her anxiety about marriage. However, they both regain their composure and George proceeds down the aisle to be wed by the Stage Manager, who is playing a preacher.
Act Three (Death)
The Stage Manager introduces the location: a graveyard atop a hill overlooking Grover's Corners. Sam Craig, George's cousin, and Joe Stoddard, the undertaker, are walking through. Emily, after dying in childbirth, is being buried here today. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to the living, the dead observe the living while seated in their "graves". Among the dead are Mrs. Gibbs, Mrs. Soames, and Simon Stimson. Emily soon joins them. As Mrs. Gibbs tells them of the cause of Emily's death, Mrs. Soames makes the remark, "My, wasn't life awful - and wonderful," a line that somewhat summarizes the whole play, showing that life has both its upsides and downsides and that we never really notice the importance of our lives while we live them. Emily finds that she is able to relive moments in her life and, against the advice of Mrs. Gibbs and with the help of the Stage Manager, decides to relive a day in her life. Mrs. Gibbs advises Emily that if she is to pick a day to relive, she should pick one that is insignificant; the reasoning behind this suggestion is that not only will Emily relive the day, she will also observe the day with the knowledge of the future. Emily decides to revisit her twelfth birthday. She is at first overwhelmed with joy, but this succumbs to tears, when she realizes how much she took for granted when she was alive and how quickly life speeds by. She says "We don't even have time to look at one another." After one last look at Grover's Corners and being alive, Emily tells the Stage Manager she is ready to go back to the graveyard. She asks if any living person ever truly notices everything as he or she lives it. The Stage Manager responds saying "saints and poets, maybe" but it seems as if no living person truly appreciates every detail in his or her life. Back in the cemetery, Simon Stimson, who committed suicide by hanging himself in the attic, reveals the bitterness of his soul, remarking that life was full of ignorance and blindness. Mrs. Gibbs reassures Emily that Simon's bitter view "ain't the whole truth and [he] knows it." Stars are mentioned as a metaphor of life and how it is always changing, always evolving. Here Wilder addresses life's ongoing cycle: the "circle of life". While looking at the whole picture, the dead understand how miniscule human life is, especially when comparing it with the millions of years it takes for the light of stars to travel to earth. The play drives its moral home when George Gibbs approaches Emily's grave and collapses in tears, as Emily watching this is saddened and amazed at how the living "don't understand." The play closes with the Stage Manager making a few comments about how tomorrow is new day - the implication being that we, the audience, the living should live every, every minute.
