In To Kill a Mockingbird, there is a very poignant scene in which Atticus kills a rabid dog that has come into town. Every time I read or see that scene I want to cry because I bet that dog was a good dog at one time. well, this dog is just downright terrifying in the way that only the great master, Stephen King, can create. It is not my favorite story or even movie of King’s, but with it coming to the Renaissance on July 19th, I wanted to see if there were any facts about it that might draw me in.

There’s quite a bit going on during a symphony concert, which can have anywhere from 60 to 100 musicians onstage, so there’s plenty to see – in fact, when we add the chorus, the number of musicians onstage at one time can reach 170! The musicians themselves are enjoying the music, too, so you’ll see some who are smiling, some with looks of intense concentration, and some moving to the beat. They are professional musicians, music teachers, graphic designers, college professors, managerial professionals, and even music students who are currently completing their Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctoral degrees. The movements are listed in the program, and the orchestra and conductor prefer that the audience does not clap between movements, as they need that time to concentrate on the next part of their music.

You’ve probably heard of Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, or even Cyber Monday, but there is another important commerce day celebrated each year and that’s Giving Tuesday. Basically, Giving Tuesday is the one day every year where nonprofits rally together to encourage you to donate to worthy causes whether global or local. The process is safe and easy * Sometimes incentive gifts are provided to non-profits who participate so this is a great day to donate * You can become a hero for the day to your favorite charity(s) If you have more questions about Giving Tuesday, I encourage you to contact your favorite local charity(s).
