McGorry's suspension: The public needs to know more
Manchester High School West Principal MaryEllen McGorry was placed on paid leave in September, just weeks after the school year began. Superintendent Thomas Brennan immediately hired a private consultant to investigate whatever it was the administration thought McGorry did to deserve the suspension. As the year went on, the bills racked up.
McGorry continued to collect her $103,700 salary. On top of that, the outside investigation has cost the city at least $48,000. The city also has continued to pay McGorry's secretary, Denise Michael, who was suspended as well. She was paid $27.80 an hour.
The school board on Monday approved a deal that will allow McGorry to resign, effective in April. She will continue receiving health benefits until June 30th. It seems that the whole, mysterious episode is to be swept under the proverbial rug. Parents and taxpayers should consider that unacceptable.
As it stands, McGorry, a popular principal, will leave under a cloud of suspicion. Her reputation has been called into question, but there is to be no resolution. The people of Manchester are not to know whether their administration was in error or whether one of their principals committed a serious breach of trust. The people deserve to know.
The administration has been mum about the reasons for McGorry's and Michael's suspensions, citing state privacy laws. The state's right-to-know law allows government bodies to keep personnel matters secret. There are good reasons for such a policy, but experience has shown that it is so broad as to become an excuse to keep secret information in which the public has a legitimate interest. Legislators need to look for revisions that will protect privacy while making the public better informed about the governance of public institutions.

Thanks you guys, Xelar, Bakker. I try to keep an eye out for any issues, sometimes they just slip by when I'm not up on my game. Let me know if there's anything specific you see! I'm never bold enough! Always striving to get there!

I really favor the first one and might do a larger, more intricate painting of it. Otherwise I've been kind of doing a self portrait study along side all the other work just to keep experimenting and seeing what things I can observe.

American Cosplay Snapshots
Hello! My name is Paula, and I've been cosplaying since 2007 (though I've been going to cons for a bit longer than that). My favorite characters to cosplay are ones that I can relate to in some way, be it in their personality or the type of clothing they like to wear or how they interact with other charaters :) I'm so happy and proud when I finish making a costume for a character I really love, it's such a great feeling!
I love this hobby and all the nice people I've met through it, and I don't think I'll be stopping any time soon :D

Major general
Major general or major-general is a military rank used in many countries. It is derived from the older rank of sergeant major general. A major general is a high-ranking officer, normally subordinate to the rank of lieutenant general and senior to the ranks of brigadier and brigadier general. Where relevant, major general has a NATO code of OF-7, and is considered to be a two-star rank.[1] A major general in most armies commands a division, however in some countries he commands a brigade.
Australia [edit]
Austria [edit]
In the old Austro-Hungarian Army, the major general was called a generalmajor.[2] Today's Austrian Federal Army still uses the same term.
Canada [edit]
In the Canadian Armed Forces, the rank of major-general (MGen) (major-général or Mgén in French) is an Army or Air Force rank equal to a rear-admiral of the Royal Canadian Navy. A major-general is a general officer, the equivalent of a naval flag officer. A major-general is senior to a brigadier-general or commodore, and junior to a lieutenant-general or vice-admiral. Prior to 1968, the Air Force used the rank of air vice-marshal instead.
The rank insignia for a major-general is two gold maple leaves beneath crossed sword and baton, all surmounted by St. Edward's Crown. It is worn on the shoulder straps of the service dress tunic, and on slip-ons on other uniforms. The service dress tunic also features a wide strip of gold braid around the cuff. On the visor of the service cap are two rows of gold oak leaves.
Major-generals are initially addressed as "general" and name, as are all general officers; thereafter by subordinates as "sir" or "ma'am" as applicable in English or "mon général" in French. Major-generals are normally entitled to staff cars.
Estonia [edit]
In the Estonian military, the major general rank is called kindralmajor.
Finland [edit]
The Finnish military equivalent is kenraalimajuri in Finnish, or generalmajor in Swedish.
France [edit]
The French equivalent to the rank of major general is général de division.
In the French military, major général is not a rank but an appointment conferred on some generals, usually of général de corps d'armée rank, acting as head of staff of a branch of service. This should not be confused with the chief of staff, who is usually a général d'armée, and the true commander of each service. The position of major général can be considered the equivalent of a deputy chief of Staff. There are five major generals: the Major General of the Armies, head of the General Staff, the Major General of the Army, the Major General of the Navy, the Major General of the Gendarmerie and the Major General of the Air Force.Major-General(General en Chef d'Armee)the Marquis de la Lafayette, is a prominent example of a Major-General holding the same equivalent rank in both the newly created United States and in Ancien-Regime France.
Historically, the French army had some sergent-majors généraux, also called sergents de bataille, whose task was to prepare the disposition of the army on the field before a battle. These sergents-majors généraux became a new rank, the maréchal de camp (not the same as a field marshal, in the French Army from antiquity called a Maréchal de France), which was the equivalent of the rank of major general. However, the term of major général was not forgotten and used to describe the appointment of armies chiefs of staff. One well-known French major général was Marshal Louis Alexandre Berthier, Major General of Napoléon's Grande armée.
Germany [edit]
The German Army and Luftwaffe refer to the rank as Generalmajor (OF-7) until 1945. Prior to 1955, the rank of Generalleutnant (OF-8) was used to define a division commander, whereas Generalmajor was a brigade commander. With the remilitarization of Germany in 1955 with West Germany's admission to NATO, Germany adopted the rank structure of the U.S. with the authority of the three lower ranks being moved up one level and the rank of Brigadegeneral (brigadier general, OF-6) added below them. The rank of Generaloberst (OF-9, Colonel general) was no longer used. The change was likely made to avoid confusion over relative rank in NATO forces.
National People's Army [edit]
The Nationale Volksarmee of the German Democratic Republic continued the use Generalmajor (OF-7) as the lowest general officer rank, followed by Generalleutnant (OF-7), Generaloberst (OF-8), Armeegeneral (OF-9), and finally Marshal of the German Democratic Republic until reunification 1990.
Hungary [edit]
The Hungarian Defence Force (Hungarian: Magyar Honvédség) refer to the rank as vezérőrnagy.
Iran [edit]
In the Imperial Iranian Army and Air Force, the ranks above colonel are respectively sartip (brigadier general), sarlashkar (major general), sepahbod (lieutenant general), and arteshbod (general)
Ireland [edit]
In the Irish Defence Forces, there are two major generals. They are Deputy Chiefs of Staff with separate responsibility for operations (DCOS Ops) and support (DCOS Sp).
India [edit]
Major general in the Indian Army is equivalent to rear admiral in the Indian Navy and air vice marshal in the Indian Air Force and is the lowest of the general officer ranks, ranking higher than a brigadier and lower than a lieutenant general.
Israel [edit]
In the Israel Defence Forces, a major general is called an aluf and is the second highest rank, only outranked by rav aluf (lieutenant general or general), who is also the Chief of Staff.
Italy [edit]
In Italy, the equivalent of major general is the army rank of generale di divisione. In the army the generale di divisione is the commander of a division or as other duties in the various national or international staff, in the Carabinieri or Guardia di Finanza. He/she is usually the commander of the units in a zone of the country.
North Korea [edit]
The rank of sojang is also used in North Korea, where it is the lowest general officer and flag officer rank, equivalent to a one-star general. The North Korean equivalent to a two-star General is jungjang, which roughly translates as lieutenant general.
South Korea [edit]
In South Korea, the rank of major general is known as sojang ({{lang-ko|소장}; Hanja: 少將).
New Zealand [edit]
In the New Zealand Army, major-general is the rank held by the Chief of Army (formerly the Chief of General Staff). The more senior rank of lieutenant-general is reserved for when an army officer holds the position of Chief of Defence Force, who commands all New Zealand's armed forces. This position is subject to rotation between the heads of the air force, army, and navy.
Norway [edit]
In the Norwegian Army, the Royal Norwegian Air Force and the Norwegian Home Guard, generalmajor is the lowest general officer, equivalent to kontreadmiral in the Royal Norwegian Navy.
Pakistan [edit]
Major general in the Pakistan Army is equivalent to rear admiral in the Pakistan Navy and air vice marshal in the Pakistan Air Force and is the lowest of the general officer ranks, ranking between brigadier and lieutenant general. The Pakistan Army has two female major generals.
Poland [edit]
Major general in the Polish Army is equivalent to Divisional General (generał dywizji) in the Land Forces and in the Polish Air Forces. It is the lowest of the general officer ranks, ranking between brigadier and lieutenant general.
Portugal [edit]
The rank of major-general was reintroduced in the Portuguese Army, Air Force and National Republican Guard in 1999 in place of the former rank of brigadier. It was previously used in the Army, from 1862–1864. It is equivalent to contra-almirante in the Portuguese Navy.
Somalia [edit]
In Somalia, Major General is used within the Somali Armed Forces (SAF) for the highest-ranking military official.[3]
Sweden [edit]
In Sweden, the rank of generalmajor (Genmj) is used in the Army, the Amphibious Corps and the Air Force. It is the equivalent to konteramiral in the navy. It is typically held by the Inspector Generals of the three service branches and the head of the Swedish Military Intelligence and Security Service.
Turkey [edit]
The Turkish Army and Turkish Air Force refer to the rank as tümgeneral. The Turkish Navy equivalent is tümamiral. The name is derived from tümen, the Turkish word for a military division (tümen itself is an older Turkish word meaning "10,000"). Thus, linguistically, it is similar to the French equivalent for a major general, général de division.
United Kingdom [edit]
In the British Army and Royal Marines, major-general ranks below lieutenant-general and above brigadier, and is thus the lowest of the general officer ranks, although always considered equivalent to major-general in other countries. Divisions are usually commanded by major-generals and they also hold a variety of staff positions. The professional head of the Royal Marines currently holds the rank of major-general.
From 1 April 1918 to 31 July 1919, the Royal Air Force maintained the rank of major-general. It was superseded by the rank of air vice-marshal on the following day.
Major-general is equivalent to rear admiral in the Royal Navy and air vice-marshal in the Royal Air Force.
United States [edit]
In the United States Army, a major general commands a division of 10,000–20,000 soldiers and is capable of fully independent field operation.
Vietnam [edit]
In Vietnam, the rank of major general is known as thiếu tướng. It is used in the army and the air force. It is the equivalent to chuẩn Đô đốc in the Navy.
The rank of thiếu tướng is the lowest general officer and flag officer rank, equivalent to a one-star general and admiral. In the Vietnamese People's Army, a major general commands a corps of 30,000–40,000 soldiers and is capable of fully independent field operation.

Footnotes [edit]
- ^ In countries that do not maintain the rank of brigadier general, including much of Eastern Europe and the Commonwealth, major general is the lowest of the general-officer ranks. Note, however, if the rank of brigadier is used, although brigadiers are not classed as "generals", they are of equal rank to brigadier generals, and are still considered to be a one-star rank. If neither of the ranks of brigadier or brigadier general (or an equivalent rank) are used, the major general is still considered a two-star rank (independent of how many stars there actually are in the insignia), and that armed force simply has no one-star rank.
- ^ Bowden & Tarbox, p 24. The authors write that FML (field-marshal-lieutenant) is the same as lieutenant-general and general-feldwachtmeister the same as major-general. But they list no equivalent rank to brigadier-general. Nevertheless, the page cited is an excellent source of Austro-Hungarian ranks.

There is maybe a glimmer of hope out there, except for the completely ridiculous use of the word "myself" that is so pervasive, it's maddening. There is a commercial poster in the school where I am taking a class on which the students have used magic marker to correct the incorrect use of our language! Challenging to be tolerant with the misuse of the language when we worked so hard to learn and use it correctly!
I used to give my students extra credit for bringing in printed grammar errors or those from tv--my favorites were always misplaced modifiers--what fun they were!!!! We live in the mountains of Georgia and it took me forever to convince our son that there was no such word as "hisself" when his babysitter used it on a regular basis. She would also make words like head, bed, milk, etc. into multi-syllable words. Interesting place to live!!

Data Compare for Oracle - 2.1
Viewing the row differences - Data Compare for Oracle
The lower (Row Differences) pane displays a side-by-side listing of values for the tables and views you have compared. To display the Row Differences pane, click a table or view in the comparison results.
By default, all rows with differences are selected for deployment. Use the Include check boxes to include or exclude the rows.
Rows that contain differences are displayed with a shaded background |
Values that are different are displayed with a darker shaded background |
Values that exist in one database but do not exist in the other are displayed with a shaded, patterned background. |
In the example above, for the row where PURCHASEID
= 1:
is the comparison key. QUANTITY
is the same in both databases so the data is displayed in gray text- The
values are different so they are displayed with the darker shaded background
Shading on the column names also indicates differences. A column name with full shading indicates values that are different; a column name with partial shading indicates values that only exist in one of the data sources.
Invalid values
You cannot include a row for deployment if it contains a value that is outside of the range of its datatype. These values are displayed with the message: Value is invalid for datatype.
If there are any invalid values in the comparison results, a warning symbol () is displayed in the Row Differences pane:
Searching the data
Tip: You can search the values in the Row Differences pane using the Find box. To search for a value:
- Right-click any value in the Row differences pane, and click Find:
- Type your search text in the Find box, and then click or to find the next or previous matching value.
For a short example video, see: Using the Find box.
Pivoting the data
To rotate the data so that you can view the values for a record as a group, click Show, and select Pivot View; the values are displayed vertically:
This is useful when there are a large number of columns in a table. Note that you cannot change the sort order of the columns when you are viewing the data in the pivot view.
To scroll through the records, hold down Shift and rotate the mouse wheel.
To show the next or previous difference, use the arrow buttons or press the shortcut keys; the values that differ are shown with a green background.

Jaylon Tate commits to Illinois
By: Austin Kim
Updated: October 4, 2012
Tate is the fourth member of Illinois basketball's 2013 class. Tate's commitment was first reported by Chicago Hoops.
The Simeon guard joins his teammate and good friend Kendrick Nunn at Illinois. Tate has said that him and Nunn are "partners in crime." Nunn committed to the Illini in September after taking in a football game at Memorial Stadium.
Tate's commitment gives John Groce the point guard he's coveted since he got to Champaign. The only true point guard on the Illini roster currently is sophomore Tracy Abrams. Groce originally went after 4-star prospect Demetrius Johnson, but Johnson chose Notre Dame over the Illini. Since then, Groce has gone hard after the Simeon point man.
Tate provides more balance to a well-rounded 2013 class. The point guard is joined by Nunn, guard Malcolm Hill and big man Maverick Morgan.

"American Horror Story: Coven" includes Kathy Bates
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The third season of "American Horror Story" will be subtitled "Coven," and add actress Kathy Bates to the series' ensemble, according to the TV anthology's co-creator, Ryan Murphy.
"We're far enough along in the writing that I can tell you what it's about," Murphy announced to more than 1000 of the show's fans who attended the PaleyFest panel on the series Friday night at the Saban Theatre in Los Angeles.
Murphy ("Nip/Tuck," ''Glee," ''The New Normal") confirmed there would be witches in the new season, but failed to reveal any more plot specifics. "It's a really cool story that we've been talking about for a couple of years, actually, and this seemed the year to do it," he continued, dropping one more tidbit:
After filming the first two seasons on lots and soundstages, parts of the series three will be shot in New Orleans.
"The fun thing about doing the show is researching what are the really haunted places in America, because every year the institution is one of the lead characters," Murphy explained. "The first year was Murder House, and this year was Asylum. We have another couple doozy locales."
Joining Murphy on the panel were "American Horror Story: Asylum" cast members Frances Conroy, Naomi Grossman, Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters and Lily Rabe as well as executive producers Dante Di Loreto, Brad Falchuk and Tim Minear. Before the event, it had been reported that Conroy, Lange, Paulson, Peters and Rabe were confirmed to be a part of the third season.
Previously, Murphy had also said Lange would be playing a "glamor cat" in her latest "Story" role. When Lange was asked about that new character, she replied, laughing, "I don't know what a 'glamor cat' is, but I am excited about it."
Late in the event, the ensemble's latest major cast addition was introduced to the audience: the Oscar-winning Bates ("Misery"), who said she was a big fan of the series and a longtime friend of Lange. Joked Murphy, "You know, I love a good Oscar winner," referring to two-time Academy Award honoree Lange, and adding that he and Lange had thought of Bates as this season-three character for some time. "So I pitched (Bates) this cuckoo-for-Cocoa-Puffs character. I said, 'I know you have a lot going on. And we're way, way, way far ahead, but think about it for a couple weeks, and call me or write me.' And my phone rang an hour later: 'I'm in.'"
"I've always been fast," Bates injected, chuckling.
Continued Murphy, "The only thing I'll say about the part is, you know, I wanted to see a lot of scenes with Jessica Lange and Kathy Bates going at it. So, that's what you're going to see." Continued...
Murphy also said he was considering a vampire-themed 'Horror Story,' and that "I have been talking to John (FX network president and general manager John Landgraf) about doing a companion piece to 'American Horror Story,' so I think it would be really cool to do a couple different incarnations of the idea. So, we've been talking about that, but I can't talk about it."
"American Horror Story: Coven" will premiere this fall on FX.

MIAMI, March 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

- Summer bookings in business volume up as of 2 March 2013
Commenting on Club Med's performance in North America, President and Chief Executive Officer, Xavier Mufraggi said:
"The financial results in Q1 for 2013 illustrate that despite harsh economic difficulties of today, the legendary brand continues to be a leading force in the all-inclusive vacation industry. Club Med is a unique brand in that we have over 80 resorts worldwide providing guests with many options to choose from when selecting a vacation destination. Many more US and Canadian travelers are looking for different vacation options outside of the Caribbean and we are able to provide this to them with our expansive portfolio of global resorts. From our new resort Pragelato Vialattea in Italy, located on Europe's second largest ski domain, to Guilin, our second resort in China, where were we are pioneering the concept of the all-inclusive vacation.

At the Annual General Meeting, Club Mediterranee Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Henri Giscard d'Estaing said:
"While the tourist markets gradually deteriorated in Europe, Club Mediterranee recorded in 2012 a new growth of its activity and a new increase of customer satisfaction rates. Thanks to its powerful positioning on the upscale market, Club Med was able to protect its profitability and thus confirms the resilience of its business model.
Over the winter, Club Mediterranee captured growth on its international main markets and continued to gain market shares in France in an environment which worsened. Moreover, it reinforced its visibility with the launching of a new worldwide brand campaign and the development of its distribution network."

This intersection was the last project to be built from the 1977 bond issue. The old intersection, which had a cable-strung light, was two lanes on all four approaches and had narrow bridges on Mingo Road north of 31st Street and on 31st Street east of Mingo Road. The 1977 bond issue provided funds to widen the intersection to four lanes with a left-turn lane on each approach and to widen 31st Street to four lanes between Mingo Creek (just west of Mingo Road) and the Mingo Valley Expressway. The two bridges also were replaced. Construction began in the fall of 1982 and was completed in the summer of 1983. A companion project, which was funded by the 1980 sales tax and built at the same time, widened 31st Street to four lanes between Mingo Creek and Memorial Drive. This project was completed in the fall of 1983. The Mingo Creek bridge on 31st Street is the only section that wasn't rebuilt in either project. Photograph taken July 1986.

Since "Who's a good boy?" is a no-brainer, let's try this one: Will your dog rock rad plaid or be stunning in beige checks this winter? There's no easy answer, but three winners of this week's "Win It" Wednesday contest will have to pick one of the two styles of hoodie presented by Doggietshirts.com as this week's prizes.
That's right—we'll choose three winners. All you have to do is move us to tears—or cheers—with your haiku-style profession of love for your pooch(es). Here's my mushy ode to my beloved Charlie:
Black bear of a dogI could gaze into brown eyesFor eternity
Bad news for me: Darned rules mean that I can't enter. Good news for you: Be one of the three entrants whose three-line nonrhyming poems outshine the rest, and you'll score a hoodie. Fill out the form below and submit your haiku in the comment section.

The contest ends November 17, and the winners will be chosen on November 19. Good luck!

Wed, Jun 19 2:00pm + 5hr after event
602 people recommend parking here 50+ left comments
Parking was easy; nice to have a shuttle on the way; however, you are on your own on the way back.
The only negative was having to walk back in the dark after and not really knowing where to go. Maps of the streets that lead back to the parking in orientation to where the stadium is would help. We got turned around inside the stadium and then were confused when we got out which way to go. thanks
Made a phone call to the lot 4 hours before the event started. The gentleman was very helpful and courteous. I was concerned about the walk back to the lot from CB stadium. It is quite a ways, but not bad if the weather is ok and you have comfortable shoes on. Lighted sidewalk all the way.
Shuttle service was great. Especially because it was raining!
Great, easy to find. Would use again.
Great easy in and easy out
This is a tailgate approved private lot parking located at Stadium Drive and Division. Our lot is Paved, Lighted, Secured-Video Cameras in Use, ATM, Free WiFi, Tailgate Approved, with x6 Restrooms on site. We are located less than a half mile from the Cowboys Stadium and Texas Rangers Ballpark. We do offer a FREE shuttle to both stadiums for most events. Return service is not included. There are paved sidewalks between either stadium and our parking area. It is about a ten-fifteen minute walk back to our parking lot. You will be on your way home faster when you park with us by skipping the main traffic from Cowboys Stadium and Rangers Ballpark events.
This location is a business.
Just north of the yellow building located right at Division and Stadium Dr., look for "Gameday Tickets" signs in the ground as you drive up as well as one on our building.
From 360: West on Division, right onto Stadium Drive (North), just past yellow building on your right (North of Division/Stadium intersection 150 yds).
From 30: exit Ballpark way, go South(after you exit loop around- its a right) 1/2 mile South past Texas Rangers Ballpark. After you pass Cowboys Way street 100 yds look to your left and you will see our parking lot, make a u-turn at Division and come back north.

People with diabetes often have comorbidities or concurrent clinical issues that affect the design and implementation of a glycemic control program. Primary care clinicians oversee the management of most patients who have diabetes, and are often the ones who must balance the need for glycemic control with adaptations of care necessitated by the presence of confounding comorbid conditions. For that reason, the Joslin Diabetes Forum 2013 will focus on the clinical overlap that occurs when glucose control programs are designed for people who have confounding clinical issues. Sessions will address the need for treatment adaptation for confounding clinical issues such as older age, obesity, reduced renal function, cardiovascular disease, or elevated liver function tests. The goal of this year's Forum is to help clinicians learn how to adapt basic glycemic control programs to safely achieve glycemic goals for their patients.

Yes, I would recommend this business to a friend!
Beautiful illustrations. Easy to read stroies with good lessons to be learnt. We have 4 of the series, and they are a huge hit with my girls. Especially the 2 year old!
They're definitely in a pocket pixies phase right now. There are three or four books next to the bed at any one time. I definitely recommend these!
These are beaultiful books and perfect for encouraging the kids imagination. They're fun and innocent with the right amount of mischief. Jenin is definitely a favourite! I highly recommend these books. If you have the chance jump onto the website. Plenty to keep the kids entertained and out of your hair. ;-)
fantastic series for kids, at a time when it is very difficult to find well written, well produced material suitable for the young. Also, loved the colourful hand made pixie book ends! So cute!
Fun, fun, fun all the way and gorgeous products to boot. Kids will love them.
This is one of those wonderful websites that both kids and their parents love. It keeps the kids happy for hours on end while pleasing the parents with its magic and innocence. These days, this sort of happy, lovely entertainment for children is very hard to find. You can find it here!
I don't normally post on websites, but these book-ends really brightened-up my kids bedrooms. A wonderful addition!

Bruce Feldman Has Been Freed
"There was never any suspension or any other form of disciplinary action. We took the time to review his upcoming work assignments in light of the book to which he contributed and will manage any conflicts or other issues as needed. Bruce has resumed his assignments."
A few obvious questions... 1) If there was no suspension why did he have the need to "resume his assignments?" 2) If there was no suspension, why did it take ESPN nearly 24 hours to dispute the report? 3) What conflicts does ESPN envision? 4) Why has Craig James still not been disciplined yet?
We'll leave those questions and the actual validity of ESPN's statement for another day. For now, rejoice in the power of Twitter and sports fans to do the right thing. If you've ever doubted your ability to make change and have a voice, doubt them no more. I feel like there should be some sort of inspirational movie scene to play me off...

Viburnum beetle was named as the number one pest by the RHS in 2010, stealing the crown from slugs and snails. It's native to the UK, but is becoming more widespread. Most of the leaf damage is caused by the stripey, beige-coloured larvae, though

I would be more concerned about the wall and door frame which is in the photo but not in the design you have shown.
Heh yeah that was my first thought too but the angles don't line up - looks like something leaning against the wall there?It makes the cut out sections in the photo look like they're in a small alcove.

The Tractors
Mater rounded up a herd of little tractors for some old-fashioned dancing fun. If you look closely, you'll notice that no 2 of the 22 tractors are the same. They have different spots, mouths and eye colors. The one thing they all share: they love to dance!
Each tractor can accommodate up to 2 adults and 1 child.
Mater is tucked away in his shed where he's singing and operating his ingenious improvised jukebox — made out of discarded oil drums, hubcaps, hoods, horns, mufflers and other assorted auto parts. The attraction features 7 original songs sung by Mater and performed by a Disneyland Park favorite, Billy Hill & the Hillbillies.

Beginning in February, more than a dozen concerts and singings will help celebrate the American heritage of music with an emphasis on the music indigenous to the west Georgia area. New Harmonies is part of Museum on Main Street, a collaboration between the Smithsonian Institution and state humanities councils nationwide. Support for Museum on Main Street has been provided by the U. S. Congress.
The actual exhibit will be on display at the Warren P. Sewell Library in Bremen Feb. 9 through March 23.
The highlight and focus of the exhibit will be on Georgia's unique musical traditions and how roots music has touched and shaped many Georgia communities. According to Dr. Keith Hebert, University of West Georgia (UWG) History Professor, Co-Director of the University's Center of Public History, and the individual coordinating the Bremen leg of the tour, roots music is "the baseline for the development of American music. All music that has developed in America originated from the roots music examined in [the New Harmonies] exhibit."
The different types of music that are part of the exhibit are numerous and varied: Native American, Sacred, String Bands, Bluegrass, Country, Southern Rock, Traveling Shows, the Blues, Folk, Work and Protest, and the New Traditions music introduced by Georgia's immigrant population.
"New Harmonies" strives to preserve and explore these roots, and Ann McCleary, the state scholar for the program, as well as UWG History Professor and Co-Director of the University's Center of Public History, plays a big role in their effort.
She explains, "Every state is required to engage a scholar to help generate the regional humanities content for the exhibit. Through the Center for Public History, we have helped work with all of the communities to develop program and exhibit ideas and to assist with marketing. We researched and wrote the Georgia Harmonies catalog, a 24-page publication about Georgia roots music. And we created much of the content for the website. Over the past year, graduate research assistant Sarah Foreman and I have been traveling to all of the communities across the state to provide additional guidance and support."
From the research and hard work done by scholars like McCleary and Hebert, as well as staff from the Smithsonian and the Georgia Humanities Council, the New Harmonies exhibit was created. Of the thirty Georgia communities who applied to host the exhibit, only twelve were chosen through a very competitive selection process. The city of Bremen was among those twelve.
And the city plans to be an accommodating host, as multiple concerts and singings will be hosted at Mill Town Music Hall, schools, and surrounding churches in the area from Feb. 1 through March 24 – many with free admission. A complete listing is below.
Bremen itself has a unique musical history and tradition that made it an ideal stop for the New Harmonies tour. Notably, Bremen is the home of Hugh McGraw, an influential figure in the world of Sacred Harp music. The importance of Sacred Harp to the west Georgia region is evident. Each year, the region hosts several Sacred Harp singings, including one every November at the Holly Springs Primitive Baptist Church in Bremen.
For more than a month, "New Harmonies" will call the recently renovated Warren P. Sewell Memorial Library in Bremen home.
Mayor Sharon Sewell expresses excitement and pride for the upcoming exhibit: "We are delighted to welcome the world, so to speak, to Bremen! This is a tremendous opportunity to showcase our music heritage in partnership with the great Smithsonian. It is also a great opportunity for our people to reconnect with our history and reclaim it, as well as exhibit the current music abilities that are core to the West Georgia area. As we display our music, we also have the opportunity to share our town with hundreds of visitors to the West Georgia area. We are most honored to have been chosen to be the site for this event."
"New Harmonies: Celebrating American Roots Music" has been made possible in the west Georgia area by the Georgia Humanities Council in partnership with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, the Center for Public History at the University of West Georgia, and the Georgia Department of Economic Development.
