Your All-Access Pass to the Marching Arts.

Jack calls out unsafe guard/band collisions and poor spacing on parade routes.Gush & GoThe panel shares end-of-season highlights, life updates, creative inspiration, and their excitement for wrapping up Season 3 and stepping into Season 4.This Week's PanelJackie Brown — @spintronixguard Jackson Goudreau — @goudreau_ Grantis Peranda — @grantisimo_p Jeremy Williams — @guardclosetSponsorsPeak Group Travel — @peak.group.travel Guard Closet — @guardclosetFind On A Water BreakWebsite: onawaterbreakpodcast.com Linktree: linktr.ee/onawaterbreak Email: onawaterbreakpodcast@gmail.com Be a Guest: form in our bio Follow us everywhere: @onawaterbreakWe'll see you next rehearsal — On A Water Break.

Two remarkable young women are showing what's possible when friendship and fierce determination go hand in hand. Highland Park High School's 2025 Valedictorian Anna Q and Salutatorian Lakshmi Vemula first met at a spelling bee in fifth grade—and instead of becoming rivals, they became lifelong friends. From that moment on, they've supported and celebrated each other every step of the way.In this uplifting episode of The Bubble Lounge, Anna and Lakshmi open up about what it really takes to succeed at the highest level—without losing your joy, your sanity, or your social life. They talk candidly about balancing advanced classes with Friday night football games, leadership roles like Homecoming Queen and Drum Major, and why mutual encouragement between women can make all the difference.Their journey is a powerful reminder that success doesn't have to be cutthroat—and that two young women can rise to the top together, lifting each other up in the process. As they head off to Yale and Brown, their advice to younger students is refreshingly grounded: work hard, take care of your mental health, and lean into the friendships that fuel you.This episode is a celebration of academic excellence, personal growth, and the kind of female friendship that inspires us all. Tune in—and don't forget to share it with others who could use a reminder to always surround yourself with positive people who support you!This episode is sponsored by: Kathy L Wall State Farm Agency Long Cove, Mother Modern Plumbing and SA Oral Surgeons Please show your support for the show by visiting our amazing sponsors.

We are back with another exciting edition of the podcast that we are dedicating to the discussion of Biden vs. Everybody. That's right! On the heels of his final State of the Union Address before the upcoming November Election, we are discussing Biden vs Donald Trump, Biden vs. the Republican Party and Biden vs. the Media. These are the three sub topics we endeavor to unpack and to talk about about during this week's edition of the podcast. Things are certainly heating up in the political landscape of this country as we head towards the November Election, and we feel it its apart of our civic duty to use this platform to educate and empower our listeners so that they can make informed decisions as they head to the polls for the upcoming Presidential Election. We not only want you to vote, because we certainly believe that we should exercise our right to vote, but we want you to make a wise decision as you head to the polls in November. PLUS, we have a very interesting Thought of the Week from the Drum Major himself, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (parody) offering his insights during a press conference immediately following this year's State of the Union of Address. In it he talks about his legacy, our progress as a people, and even offers his thoughts on the upcoming election. We hope you enjoy this week, bust mostly we hope that it inspires you and other like you to go to the polls and vote! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michael-s-nimmons/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/michael-s-nimmons/support

Ziff: https://rhammerton1.wordpress.com/2012/04/11/gotta-love-it/ http://www.gazettenet.com/2012/04/11/venerated-journalist-professor-ziff-dies   TRIO: interview with Zoe Stinson She's a music teacher, she's a researcher, she's a salsa band baritone saxophonist! … and if you've been in western Massachusetts in the last several years, you also may have seen her, possibly on the podium in front of some outfit called the Minuteman Marching Band, or behind the wheel of a Pioneer Valley Transit Authority bus. Renaissance person? Or just casting her net really wide?   A chat about a beginner-band teaching strategy which Ms. Stinson piloted at her East Windsor (Connecticut) teaching gig, which she calls “Culture Before Technique”.   STINSON BIO: Zoe Stinson is a music educator and instrumentalist originally from the Capitol Region of New York, and currently teaches grade 5-8 Band, Chorus, and General Music at East Windsor (CT) Middle School. Zoe grew up studying saxophone, cello, and voice, but always gravitated towards saxophone. In 2016, Zoe was selected to perform at NYSSMA Conference All-State, and to perform in the International Performance Series at Carnegie Hall. Zoe furthered her saxophone studies at Eastman, Crane, Hartt, and University of Oklahoma summer programs throughout high school and college, and has performed in masterclasses for virtuosos such as Arno Bornkamp, Chien-Kwan Lin, and Christopher Creviston. In 2017, Zoe attended the University of Massachusetts Amherst for Saxophone Performance. While she studied at UMass, Zoe was heavily involved in numerous activities as a student musician. Zoe was initiated into Tau Beta Sigma, National Honorary Sorority for Collegiate Bands, and has since become a life member. Zoe performed in the University Wind Ensemble, Symphony Band, University Choral, Chapel Jazz Ensemble, Jazz Ensemble I, Marimba Bands, and the University of Massachusetts Minuteman Marching Band, for which she served as a Drum Major for two seasons. Aside from larger ensembles, Zoe was also associated with several notable chamber ensembles including the 4/4ths Saxophone Quartet, and the Rebel Saxophone Quartet, which traveled to Virginia for the Navy Band Saxophone Symposium in 2019 with their tour program. As a soloist, Zoe has performed multiple solo recitals and been invited as a guest performer at many others. Her most recent recital, “A Showcase of the Baritone Saxophone”, was performed entirely on the baritone saxophone in effort to legitimize the instrument in the classical medium. Zoe was also a concerto competition winner at UMass in Spring 2020 performing Rhapsody by Andre Waignein on the alto saxophone. Zoe has recently begun her professional career as a music educator, and is a member of the Gordon Institute for Music Learning. Specializing in instrumental instruction, Zoe applies Music Learning Theory in her classroom with a focus on ear training. Outside of the classroom, Zoe still enjoys playing her cello to this day, and plays baritone saxophone with recreational ensembles such as the “Salsa Train” salsa band in Springfield, and “The Onlys,” her fusion rock trio in New York. On the weekends, she occasionally likes to hop into the driver seat and drive for PVTA in Amherst, MA.

“Prison reform is the attempt to improve conditions inside prisons, improve the effectiveness of a penal system, or implement alternatives to incarceration.[1] It also focuses on ensuring the reinstatement of those whose lives are impacted by crimes.[1] In modern times the idea of making living spaces safe and clean has spread from the civilian population to include prisons, on ethical grounds which honor that unsafe and unsanitary prisons violate constitutional (law) prohibitions against cruel and unusual punishment. In recent times prison reform ideas include greater access to legal counsel and family, conjugal visits, proactive security against violence, and implementing house arrest with assistive technology.” “Psychiatric hospitals, also known as mental health hospitals or behavioral health hospitals, are hospitals or wards specializing in the treatment of severe mental disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, dissociative identity disorder, major depressive disorder, and others. Psychiatric hospitals vary widely in their size and grading. Some psychiatric hospitals may specialize only in short-term or outpatient therapy for low-risk patients. Others specialize in the temporary or permanent confinement of patients who need routine assistance, treatment, or a specialized and controlled environment due to a patient's psychiatric disorder. Patients often choose voluntary commitment, but those who psychiatrists believe pose significant danger to themselves or others may be subject to involuntary commitment and involuntary treatment.[1][2] Psychiatric hospitals are sometimes referred to as psychiatric wards/units, psych, wards, or units when they are located in a hospital. Modern psychiatric hospitals evolved from and eventually replaced the older lunatic asylum. The treatment of inmates in early lunatic asylums was sometimes brutal and focused on containment and restraint.[3][4] With successive waves of reform, and the introduction of effective evidence-based treatments, most modern psychiatric hospitals emphasize treatment, usually including a combination of psychiatric medications and psychotherapy, that assist patients in functioning in the outside world. Many countries have prohibited the use of physical restraints on patients, which includes tying psychiatric patients to their beds for days or even months at a time,[5][6] though this practice still is periodically employed in India, Japan, and other countries.[7]” -Wikipedia. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/antonio-myers4/support

Today we want to move from the principle of service to the practice of service. As we said last week, The principle of service shows us the argument for why we should commit our lives to serving, especially for the matter of building bridges and breaking down walls. The practice of service shows us what it practically looks like. Support the showThanks for listening! Follow us on Facebook or Instagram more info colonialkc.org

The Drum Major Instinct with Pastor Josef Massanari January 14, 2024 Sermon given by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on February 4th 1968   Visit us online https://www.cornerstonelv.com https://www.facebook.com/lvcornerstone  https://www.instagram.com/cornerstone_lv/    

Jesus avoided the drum major instinct. Jesus consistently exemplified the message of humility. Even when his followers wanted him to make a stand and overthrow the government, his response was, my time has not come. Why, because the strongest strategy for progress and success, is humility and servitude.Support the showThanks for listening! Follow us on Facebook or Instagram more info colonialkc.org

The C.O.W.S. welcomes Dr. Bethan V. Jones. An independent scholar whose work examines the relationship between fans, objects of fandom, and producers, Dr. Jones has published extensively on digital media, gender, antifandom and toxicity. Her work has appeared in the Journal of Transformative Works and Culture, Participations, and Sexualities, as well as edited collections for Palgrave and Routledge. She's also a board member on the Fan Studies Network. We'll discuss her 2022 paper on the White fandom around the cowardly Columbine shooters. Apparently, the Colorado killers are big news across the pond too. We'll relate this to Dr. Jones' report on her trip to Atlanta, Georgia. She attended an academic conference and made time for the Walking Dead tour. We'll discuss the racial demographics of the folks on these tours and what they reveal about White culture. We'll also see if she stopped by the King Center to pay her respects to the “Drum Major for Justice.” We heard about Dr. Jones from our recent conversation with Dr. Judith Fathallah, who's also in Whales. It seems they are pals. This program includes a staggering illustration of black male privilege. #Columbiner #WhiteFandom #TheCOWS14Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

Last Sunday we gave our attention in the sermon to the subject, "Ride the Wild Horses." Now today the title is "Drum-Major Desires." There is actually a connection between these two sermons, but it is not obvious just from hearing the titles. And so today we are building on the foundation of what we considered last Sunday. If you haven't heard the podcast from last week, you can still hear it. I jokingly tell people that these podcasts are like the devil - - they never go away! Now let's move right on into the follow-up from last Sunday.Thank you for sharing this time with us today from Ocean Lakes Family Campground.

Alabama: “Million Dollar Band”  Today I honor my father, Benjamin Colon  - otherwise known as Benny or Dad  Dad was the Drum Major at Dominguez High School, and he LOVED bands and music! A college marching band adds tradition, pomp and circumstance, fight song, the alma mater, and the memories of college football, basketball, and those crazy pep rallies. Alabama's marching band is known as “The Million Dollar Band”  My research led me to Alabama Alumnus, William Champ Pickens, who bestowed the name on the band after the 1922 football game against Georgia Tech. The Crimson Tide lost 33-7 to the Yellow Jackets. Atlanta sportswriter commented to Pickens, “You don't have much of a team, what do you have at Alabama?” To that, Champ proudly answered, “A Million Dollar Band.” And so the name stuck.  That was in 1922 – hard to believe Alabama ever had a losing season! You might know the name “Bear” Bryant. For 25 years, he coached the Alabama football team. Coach Bryant's collection of 323 collegiate wins includes 13 Conference Championships and 6 National Titles with the University of Alabama.  What I love about this legendary coach is this: he often gave the Million Dollar Band partial credit for the many football victories. What a true gentleman!  University of Alabama Large, public institution - With at total of over 32K students 7500 freshmen – that's big!

Can't remember a time we felt more Cornell love and spirit than when we watched Zack Kozma conduct the marching band this past fall. This week we met the Cornell marching band Drum Major for a little behind the scenes and a little quiz on Ivy League fight songs, Name That Tune style!He's as fun and enthusiastic in his real life too! You will love Zack and we suggest you Google some of his performances during the 2022 football season. His energy is infectious!Not sponsored by or affiliated with Cornell University
