It's a celebration of women's hoops this week, as we look back at the "early days" of the Women's National Basketball Association - including stops with the oft-forgotten Utah Starzz and San Antonio Silver Stars - with three-time league all-star Marie Ferdinand-Harris (Transformed: The Winning Side of Losing).   A first-round pick in the WNBA's fifth-ever draft in 2001, Ferdinand was a dominant shooting guard at LSU prior to her 8th-overall selection by Utah - a formidable presence inside the paint and outside the arc, skills honed from leading title-winning teams at Edison High School, in the heart of Miami's historically poor "Little Haiti" neighborhood.   After a stellar 11-year pro career (including turns with the league-original LA Sparks and Phoenix Mercury), Ferdinand-Harris is one of the unsung pioneers of the WNBA, part of a first generation of players that helped solidify the foundation for an organization whose success was not guaranteed at the time - but now is firmly rooted in the American pro sports infrastructure.     + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/goodseatsstillavailable Donate via Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable   SPONSOR THANKS: Royal Retros (promo code: SEATS):  https://www.royalretros.com/?aff=2   BUY/READ EARLY & OFTEN: Transformed: The Winning Side of Losing (2024): https://amzn.to/4bWEQvZ   GIVE UNTIL IT HURTS: Be Like CJ Foundation: https://www.belikecj.org/   FIND & FOLLOW: Website: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable

Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley alleged on the Senate floor that the foreign national with whom President Joe Biden is accused of striking a bribery deal has 17 audio recordings of his conversations with the president and his son. If this is indeed true, release the tapes for the public to hear. Will anyone actually get to hear the tapes, or will this be covered up? A video making the rounds shows a group of students at Edison High School in Huntington Beach mocking and booing when their teacher played a Pride video. Have the kids finally had enough with the obscene LGBT propaganda? Hopefully this is a sign that the kids might be all right. We're joined by Sara Gonzales, BlazeTV host and Pride expert, to get her take on the potential Biden bribery scandal and an inside look at her recent experience at a Pride parade. The mayor of Reading, Pennsylvania, said freedom of speech doesn't apply in the case of a man who was arrested in the city earlier this month after trying to quote the Bible to Pride rally attendees. Mayor Eddie Moran apparently doesn't understand the First Amendment. Garth Brooks is doubling down on his Bud Light stance, saying his establishment will sell all kinds of beer. Another L for the man who refers to himself in the third person. We're joined by David Iverson, host of “Cowboy State Politics,” to hear his story of confronting a University of Wyoming professor about hosting a drag show. It's some shocking footage!

In a late morning message to parents and administrators on Thursday, Edison High Principal Joey Munoz shared an update about a "sexually inappropriate video" circulated on social media involving one of its student's. A Fresno restaurant owner is closing his business over online rumors saying they cook and serve dog meat to customers. The owner of Tasty Thai on Belmont and First says these allegations are false and he's now facing threats online and over the phone. The owner says they have received so much backlash on not only their social media pages, but they have gotten dozens of negative reviews. They say none of it is true and it all started with someone posting a video of a dog at a house next to the restaurant. Mental health services for Fresno Unified students will look different next school year as the district has ended its contract with one of its contracted mental health providers. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On June 17, 2021, President Joe Biden announced that the addition of a new federal holiday to recognize Juneteenth. The Juneteenth holiday was commemorated in African-American communities throughout United States history.  However outside of black communities there were lots of questions following the President's announcement as to the meaning and significance of this holiday.  President Biden's announcement also followed the Senate unanimously passing the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act on June 15, 2021.  The holiday name derives from June and Nineteenth and is referred to as a portmanteau or a blend of words.  The holiday celebrates the Emancipation of slaves in states in rebellion against the Union on June 19, 1865 which is the date slaves in Texas were proclaimed free.Recent hot topics such as the detention and trial in Russia of WNBA star Brittney Griner in Russia on cannabis oil possession charges as well as the ongoing controversy related to the August 28, 1955 murder of 14 year old Emmett Till in Mississippi following charges that were later proved to be based on false and contradictory testimony.  The accuser Carolyn Bryant as well as the people who murdered Emmett have never been brought to justice.   Jessica is joined in this episode by her high school classmates and life long friends Dr. Natasha Greene and Margaux Johnson.  Dr. Natasha Greene works with the federal government and has provided mentorship and motivational/consulting services.  Margaux relocated following high school and now resides in Georgia where she has rose through the ranks in various companies in accounting and financial roles in a variety of companies requiring domestic and international travel. She is now a division controller and has over 15 years in the manufacturing industry.   Both Natasha and Margaux attended historically black universities. In this episode we discuss: 1) Dr. Natasha Greene's educational and career path; 2) Margaux's educational path and rise through the ranks in corporate America; 3) The high school experience Margaux, Natasha and Jessica had in high school at a magnet school with high rankings located in a historically black community in West Fresno; 4) Natasha and Margaux's experience attending historically black colleges and in Natasha's case graduate school at Howard University in Washington D.C.; 5) The significance of Juneteeth's recognition as a federal holiday o Natasha and Margaux as black women; 6) What Natasha and Margaux's families did to recognize the holiday long before it was a federal holiday; 7) The Allensworth community south of Fresno, California near Earlimart in Tulare County established exclusively by African-Americans in 1908; 8) The Brittney Griner prolonged detention and current trial in Russia on cannibis oil possession charges 9) Whether Brittney Griner's case was long ignored in mainstream media as a female athlete; 10 ) Whether Brittney Griner may be a political prisoner of the Putin regime in Russia; 11) The Emmett Till ongoing controversy. and the unserved warrant against his accuser whose story has changed substantially throughout the years since his death: 12) The significance for African-Americans and Americans in general that Emmett Till's murder and the related arguably shifting story by his accuser have both been met with impunity. 13) The impact of movements to silence the voices seeking to teach United States history from all perspectives without leaving out the accomplishments of African-Americans or erasing systemic and institutional realities that they faced throughout U.S. history.

My next guest is Joe Dziedzic and I'm super excited to hear his hockey journey. Joe grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where he spent his childhood playing football, hockey and baseball. By the time he finished his high school career he had college scholarship offers for all 3 sports. In 1990, his senior year at Edison High School, he won Mr. Hockey, which is awarded to Minnesota's best male high school hockey player, and later that same year he was drafted in the 3rd round, 61st overall by the Pittsburgh Penguins. After high school, he began his college career with the hometown team, the Minnesota Gophers. Following 4 years of schooling and hockey growth, he would sign with the Penguins and go on to play in 130 NHL games with Pittsburgh and at the time, the Phoenix Coyotes, but it was a career cut short because of an eye injury. After his retirement he got into coaching at the team level and also doing small group skill development training through JD Hockey. He's currently the head coach at Minneapolis High School and was the 2022 Minnesota High School Coach of the year, so we have a lot to talk about.

Terrell Green had a tough upbringing. His mom suffered from addiction though, and he lost his father at an early age. He grew up listening to comedians like Richard Pryor, who was a major inspiration for him. He was also a top athlete coming out of Edison High School and went to Fresno City College. This is where it turned bad for him, unfortunately, as he saw his best friend get murdered in front of him. After that incident, he was depressed and suicidal. He stopped playing sports. The guilt weighed on him, as he felt responsible for putting his friend in that situation. He really struggled for a long time, but he was finally able to break out of it. One day, he saw some comedy videos that inspired him to do the same thing, and he was able to find therapy in comedy. He would create characters of people he would see in his neighborhood, for better or worse, and show people what his life was like through this distorted comedic lens. His comedy videos ended up going viral on Tik Tok, Youtube & social media sites and started getting the attention of some pretty big names. than legendary rapper and entertainment mogul Snoop Dogg, who reposted one of his videos to his millions of followers. He started getting feedback that he was helping other people going through the same problems as he was, and this inspired him to write in his journal. Finally, he put his plan in motion to start writing his book, "Against All Odds: A Story About How I Became". After that major release, Terrell was able to reach a large number of people struggling with the same things he was, which in turn helped everyone help each other. The feedback on his book has been nothing but positive, and Terrell wants to keep that dialogue with his fans open & make sure anyone that needs help can get the support they need.

In our interview he compares that to golf: I'm 150 out. What's my 150 club? That's what I'm thinking. But that's not what the pros are thinking. They are not going for the flag. They are taking in everything else, what are the contours of the green. They are going for a spot for a 6-7 foot putt. To hear how they think on the game is fascinating. When Bruce was playing NBA basketball against the best - he would compare that approach to guarding the best scorers. It is a challenge each time I play golf to have that mental aspect of the game. Bruce Bowen: NBA, Dad, Coach, GolferBruce Bowen has guarded Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Ray Allen, Dirk Nowitski...and today he takes all of that experience to his boys on and off the court. We sat down to interview Bruce Bowen. Why would we have Bruce on a golf podcast? Hear from Bruce's experience why golf brings out the weaknesses and requires preparing mentally - just like his days in the NBA. Bruce Bowen was not always a golfer - he talks about growing up in the Valley in California, going to Edison High School and later finding his basketball career. He discusses how he isn't your typical golfer who loved the game at a young age. He didn't get his first set of clubs at 9 years old. Today Bruce Bowen takes all that experience - and applies it to our society for his boys and his players. Bruce takes all of his life and NBA experience and finds new challenges on the golf course. He explains when he fell in love with golf and what keeps bringing him back. We also asked Bruce about some NBA guys including: Who are the top 3 hardest guys in the NBA you had to guard? Who is your favorite NBA player to golf with now? And how does playing in the NBA compare to playing in a golf tournament today?

Overwhelmed by election day anxiety? Put your phone down, turn off the TV, and listen to this brand new episode of SnackWalls.Jonaed highlights if employers want to find diverse talent, they need to seek candidates in different ways. Currently, many employers look for talent through referrals. However most young diverse talent do not have an established network to connect with companies. Additionally, companies will often vet out candidates based on degree requirements instead of focusing on someone's skill set. Jonaed is not against degrees, but he does oppose having setting requirements that prevent good, skilled people from getting into jobs. He believes that companies should invest in developing talent using the apprenticeship or a mentoring program. Most large organizations invest heavily in developing their talent and the pay off is visible in the long term (ex. Google). Now, to retain diverse talent Jonaed advises companies to have a diverse and welcoming culture. People crave community, and if your employees don't feel like they belong in the team, they will find another company.Jonaed Iqbal is the founder and CEO of NoDegree.com and the host of the NoDegree podcast. They aspire to reduce the growing economic disparity between non-college grads and college grads by providing career resources to people without degrees. The NoDegree podcast is used to interview successful people without college degrees to figure what made them successful. Jonaed is also an Assistant Wrestling Coach at Thomas A.

IN THE BEGINNING: THE EARLY DAYS OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS by Jaime Reyes It is 40,000 BCE, and Neanderthals believe in spirit gods. Og is an ancient, exceptionally intelligent Neanderthal. As he sits in his cave sheltered from the vicious storm that rages outside, he knows there must be a better way to survive. Now all he has to do is convince his tribal troupe that he has the answers to their fears and apprehensions. After he convinces Chief Olo that he can appease the spirit gods and end the storm by performing a ritual he learned from his father, Og puts on a colorful show with rattles, bones, and face paint. When the storm subsides and it becomes evident that Og displays some power over the elements, he begins to receive respect from most tribal members—except the insecure chief, who is threatened by him. But when Og saves the chief’s life, he makes way for Og to become the tribe’s first fully anointed priest and create a legend whose idea of persuasive idolization will spread throughout the old and new world and carry on into the future. In the Beginning shares the compelling tale of a Neanderthal man’s journey as he becomes spiritual leader of his clan and passes his knowledge on to his descendants so they can continue to benefit. Mr. Jaime Reyes has enjoyed many career changes. He was born in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, several decades ago. His family moved to the US mainland when he was nearly eight years old. He spoke no English but in a matter of months was fluent enough to become a straight A student. It helped that he learned to read Spanish at age three and continued to feed his voracious appetite for words in the new language. After graduating from Thomas A. Edison High School, he was drafted into the US Army and served honorably in Vietnam as a military intelligence agent and analyst. After completing military service, he started his own business, which he managed successfully for seven years. He sold the business and pursued the career of his dreams in law enforcement. He worked with the Philadelphia Police Department for five years and then the Philadelphia Office of the Sheriff as a deputy sheriff. He served for twenty-five years, the last ten years as a supervisor. During off hours, he wrote articles as a hobby in English and Spanish, including opinion pieces, guest columns, and public service articles in various newspapers and online publications. After retiring from law enforcement, he wanted to establish credentials to continue a writing career, and so he earned a bachelor's in communication and journalism at an age when most people are enjoying a leisurely retirement. As a result of having read hundreds of books, he used CLEP (College Level Examination Program) and other similar programs to test out of elective courses and earn his degree in just two years. He continued writing articles and short stories. The short story version of In the Beginning received good reviews, and he decided to convert it to a novel. An incentive for the short story and the book came from a genealogical study that determined that his varied ancestral lineage includes three percent Neanderthal DNA. In the Beginning is his first published book. https://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Early-Days-Religious-Beliefs/dp/1643618288/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=In+the+Beginning+jaime+reyes&qid=1592253895&s=books&sr=1-1 http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/jaireyes.mp3

Welcome to the blog & show notes for Episode 47 of Sally’s Performing Arts Lab Podcast. In this episode, I interview my favorite drama teacher, Amber Harrington, from Edison High School in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I’m your SallyPAL podcast host, Sally Adams. I talk to people about creating original work for a live audience. Send an email anytime to Sally@sallypal.com. I have an update on the SallyPAL empire. SallyPAL now has a STORE! You can buy t-shirts, totes and coffee mugs with vintage theatre photos and paintings. Each one has a caption or speech bubble that will make you chuckle (especially if you’ve ever been backstage). Click the link to go to SallyPAL.com/shop and see for yourself. In addition to building the store, I’ve been toying with a YouTube channel. But I could use some advice. So far I’ve used it for live TOWN Stages interviews, encouragement videos and my own original music and covers. But I’d like to know what you want to see. My son, my music partner and I are working on a new musical. Would you like to see the process and what that actually looks like? Do you want me to share videos of original performances from around the world? Do you want more video interviews? I have to admit, I’ve got a steep learning curve on this one. Just click this link to go to YouTube for the SallyPAL channel. Subscribe and comment on the channel and I can start sharing useful stuff! Before I tell you about one amazing drama teacher, I want to share about a little project at our Virginia cottage. Because I am constantly struggling to get better sound, George and I created a recording studio in an under-stair closet. Here’s a pic of my closet under the stairs Harry Potter space. You might even be inspired to try something like this in your own home. It required that we both give up items of clothing we know longer wear to free up the space, but that’s a good thing, right? Amber Harrington was never my drama teacher. She’s quite a bit younger than I am. But she taught all three of my kids. And as her peer, I’ve watched her work and been so impressed. Amber lives by her mantra, Work Hard and Don’t Be a Jerk. She’s been teaching theatre in Tulsa, Oklahoma for nearly 20 years. This very special artist has received numerous awards for her teaching. And her students regularly win awards for their performances and technical work. Every year she expands the theatre program that has changed so many lives including the lives of my three kids. Amber Harrington teaches nearly 250 students each year. This sometimes requires her to accommodate two classes at once. This would be tough enough for most teachers, but Amber’s organizational skills, work ethic (and Google Classroom) make it work. She learned what it means to be a drama teacher from her dad, Paul Harrington. He taught her about raising money, building sets and marketing the work of young local artists on a teacher’s small salary. Amber Harrington graduated from Southeastern Oklahoma State University with a theatre degree after learning every facet of theatre craft. As a teacher she created projects and performances that helped her students grow. And every year the Edison Eagle theatre program gets a little bigger. There are so many opportunities in Amber's department. Early in the school year there is a district-wide one-act competition that has often led her students to compete at the state level. The annual Halloween show, Creeps, has dance, music, spoken word and original writing. Fall Funnies features comedy scenes and monologues. She produces mainstage plays and musicals with the help of other interested teachers including history teacher Chris Burnham and now retired Folger Shakespeare Library Mentor Teacher, Paul Stevenson. When the teacher walk-out forced students to forego one of the annual productions, Amber created a summer Comedy Camp to make up for the lost stage time. During the school year she produces an audition-only stand-up comedy show that includes some very funny student-written routines. Edison Eagle Theatre also produces an annual Saturday Night Live knock-off called Thursday Night Live (or TNL). I’ve often thought the kids’ original skits were funnier than the actual SNL. As a Folger Shakespeare Library Teaching Artist herself, Amber makes Shakespeare accessible to the kids. Just recently, one of her students won the Shakespeare competition that leads to a National event in New York City. Her schoolwide Shakespeare festival has produced other National contenders over the years. And Amber and her students began a new tradition in 2017 featuring monologues written by students that focus on the lives of dogs called Dogologues. The December show raises money for The Promised Land Dachsund Sanctuary.      So many young artists have trod the boards under Amber’s watchful eye including my three kids. I give her credit for instilling a sense of confidence and encouraging integrity. Amber now has her 10-year-old son joining the fun by teaching him to operate the light board and including him in the summer comedy camp. One nice thing about teaching is having time in the summer to spend with your kids. One tough thing about teaching is being able to afford your kids. The Oklahoma Teacher Walkout last year in the national news was not unexpected. For those of us who have taught in Oklahoma public schools, politics loom large. Amber is committed to supporting the kids by keeping politics out of all theatre department activities. She finds ways to create a positive environment where all students feel welcome. Amber commits every day to the Drama Class as a safe space. She keeps it that way even in the face of difficult circumstances for teachers. She believes in taking the art seriously without taking yourself too seriously. All Eagle Theatre kids are required to do some performance-related writing. She created one of the first full-fledged playwriting programs in a high school in Oklahoma. Amber believes in students creating original work to a deadline. As she points out, “theatre is the hardest deadline.” All of these programs should be enough for any teacher, but Amber goes the extra mile. She takes the existing Edison deaf education program and incorporates ASL signing by having interpreters for performances and encouraging deaf students to participate in shows. And her program produced the only two Oklahoma winners of the Kennedy Center Very Special Arts youth playwriting program. In my interview with Amber Harrington you’ll hear us talk about the amazing voice coach Rena Cook and the play The Hairy Falsetto by J.I. Rodale. We mention The Lesbian Exhibit by Eagle Theatre grad Will Inman. We also talk about presentational acting vs. teaching kids how to access feelings in a role. This is a process Amber refers to as “turning a corner”. The political climate in education came up, of course. And we discussed the juiciness of “the long silence” in performance. There’s so much to talk about with Amber: We mentioned artist Tom Self’s original t-shirt designs for Creeps (they’re collector’s items now). Amber’s dad writes large cast plays that are often performed on the Eagle Theatre mainstage. The number of events she produces led to the development of a black box theatre space. Her casts have won all state one-act competitions. And Edison actors are regularly selected for regional and state all-star and tech awards. This very committed teacher makes theatre classes challenging, exciting and fun. According to her students, the experience is worth every critique, long rehearsal, and ugly cry. Performing on stage is a risky business but with the encouragement of a teacher like Ms. Harrington, students take artistic risks with confidence.

Get a free Home Value ReportBuying a Minneapolis home? Search all Homes for SaleI've been meaning to highlight areas of Minneapolis that I enjoy and that are also worth living in. Today I'll be speaking about my own neck of the woods, which is Northeast Minneapolis. There is a lot to do around here, whether you like sports, music, art, or just a cold beer.This area boasts a strong arts district which hosts something called Art-A-Whirl every year that brings in a lot of local artists and musicians. You can learn more about this festival here.Northeast Minneapolis is sometimes referred to as Nordeast, and a lot has changed in the last 10 years. However, a lot of old institutions are still here like Jax Cafe, Stanley's, and Elsie's Bowling Alley.There is also a fairly new place called The Anchor, which serves fish and chips and is one of the highest-rated restaurants in the area. Betty Danger's Country Club has a Ferris Wheel attached to their restaurant, so this is a perfect destination for your family. You can even dine in one of the cars on the Ferris Wheel!One of the major reasons that the Nordeast is prized is because we have very good schools in this part of the city. Waite Park Elementary School has been ranked extremely high, as well as Northeast Middle School, and then there is Edison High School.If you're thinking of buying a home in Northeast Minneapolis, I recommend you come out and take a look. It's a very relaxed, family-friendly area. Please don't hesitate to ask me about this part of Minneapolis because I would love to talk to you about it!
