Arcadia High School Performing Arts Center in Acradia, California by McCarthy Building Companies
February 7th, 2013 by Sanjay Gangal
Article source: McCarthy Building Companies
A 60-year old wish for the community of Arcadia has finally come true with the opening of Arcadia Unified School District's new $20 million Performing Arts Center. It was the District's intent to build an auditorium in 1952 when the high school was originally constructed, but there was no funding. Due to the passage of Bond Measure I in 2006, the District finally had a chance to fulfill this community's enduring dream.
"We are exceptionally pleased to have realized the dream of providing our students, faculty and community members with a world class performing arts venue that will become a home for the arts in Arcadia," said AUSD Superintendent Dr. Joel Shawn. "All aspects of the arts are an essential component of a rigorous education for our students and a healthy, vibrant community."
McCarthy Building Companies, Inc., one of Southern California's foremost building companies specializing in educational facilities, served as general contractor/developer for the facility using Lease/Leaseback project delivery. Constructed on a 4.2 acre site at the northwest end of the Arcadia High School campus, the 40,000 square-foot theater venue opened on October 27, 2012 with an inaugural benefit concert by living music legend Paul Anka.
In addition to being used by the high school for drama, dance and music performances and classes, the new Center will be enjoyed by the entire community, as it is the only performing arts venue in the City of Arcadia. The nonprofit Arcadia Performing Arts Foundation was recently created to support the new center with efforts underway to fund the maintenance and a full-time theater manager for the Center.
Designed by LPA, Inc. the new Performing Arts Center is the latest addition to Arcadia High School's historic campus. Performing arts, especially music, are extremely important to the Arcadia Unified School District, and this high-concept facility showcases this priority for the Arts through its architecture.
The main performance hall incorporates ground level and mezzanine seating for 1,200 and a stage with capacity for up to 200 musicians. Designed for acoustic performance, this space is equipped with adjustable sound-absorptive panels that allow it to be acoustically "tuned" based on the needs of the performance. In addition, moveable orchestra shells can be utilized to adjust the size of the stage to the performance and the orchestra shell's acoustical qualities increase the sound projection to the audience. The main hall is also designed with professional lighting and sound systems as well as other state-of-the-art technology making it an exciting venue for the visual arts.
Students can access the main hall from three adjacent classrooms in the Center. Each classroom space has been tailored to instructors' and students' needs including a large sound attenuated orchestra room with sound proof practice rooms, instrument storage and a library; a Blackbox/Drama Room with a separate control room and flexible seating for 125 guests; and a Dance Room with a quadruple-sprung wood floor, dressing rooms and a full service backstage facility for scene prop and costumes storage as well as professional stage craft areas. The facility also incorporates a dramatic internal courtyard, lobby and outdoor pavilion areas.
Built with a sloping concrete floor, the steel frame structure features a modern glass, smooth plaster and brick exterior. Interior finishes include cabinetry for music instrument storage, and multiple flooring types such as wood, ceramic tile, carpet, terrazzo and concrete.
Special construction techniques were used to meet the facility's acoustical and architectural requirements. "A gypsum plaster finish was applied in the theater in lieu of the conventional drywall to increase the density of the walls, along with coffered ceilings in order to provide enhanced acoustical properties within the space," said McCarthy Project Manager Michael Forys. "We also constructed a 10,000-square-foot scaffold platform to build the 40-foot high ceilings in the main theater."
Forys noted that the smooth exterior plaster finish provided a unique challenge on the project. "If not finished properly, the exterior walls could look uneven or wavy. To mitigate this challenge, McCarthy spent considerable time with the installing subcontractor reviewing specs, construction details and installation methods prior to the start of the plaster construction to assure that the team would be able to achieve the desired effect in a consistent manner. The proactive quality control for this scope of work helped produce a beautiful end-product exceeding all expectations."
Forys said that another quality focus of the team was the potential for latent moisture in the concrete slabs that could ultimately effect floor covering adhesion. "Due to recent low VOC legislation changes in the flooring industry, McCarthy has developed a comprehensive flooring coordination program that is utilized to avoid floor issues. In this facility, the program was implemented early in the project and measures were put in place from the foundation on up to reduce concrete slab vapor transmission and maintain the integrity of the finished product," explained Forys.
"By utilizing Lease/Leaseback procurement of the project, we were able to more effectively work through project challenges during the preconstruction phase that we normally encounter during construction. This alternative delivery also helped to maintain the project budget and provide cost certainty for the District. This was accomplished by conducting a thorough constructability review of the plans while working with the District and design team during preconstruction to create an accurate budget. Also, a lot of time, not normally afforded on hard-bid projects, was spent reviewing the plans and scopes of work with the subcontracting community. This allowed us to provide precise estimates and avoid scope gaps."
"Delivering high-level of quality was a major priority for this project," said Forys. "The numerous finish elements (brick, composite aluminum, cement plaster, gypsum plaster, etc.) and their interfaces were all seamlessly integrated. The completed product is a beautiful facility that McCarthy and the District are very proud of and that everyone in the community can enjoy."
McCarthy is currently overseeing construction projects at 10 elementary and middle schools within the Arcadia Unified School District school facility improvement program including new buildings and modernization.

It's slated to be part of a housing development on the shore of Lake Michigan. David Swan is president of the Saugatuck Dunes Coastal Alliance. He says the marina will spoil an otherwise mostly pristine area. "It is a 1600 foot long, 200 foot wide, 18 foot deep trench through Michigan's critical dunes," says Swan. "(This area) is completely unique. The river mouth and the beaches are essentially undeveloped." State regulators to issue permit for controversial development in duneland, with conditions By Lindsey Smith • Jan 8, 2014 Lindsey Smith / Michigan Radio A controversial development that's proposed on 300 acres of critical duneland in Saugatuck is likely to get the state permit it needs to get the project rolling. The parcel has been at the center of a years-long legal battle. Public asks state to reject development plans, consider buying dune land in Saugatuck By Lindsey Smith • Aug 27, 2013 Lindsey Smith / Michigan Radio Many people are asking the state to consider paying millions of dollars for a few hundred acres of land in Saugatuck. The land is sandwiched between Saugatuck State Park and a nearly 200-acre nature preserve. Community leaders tried to buy the property a few years ago. They were outbid by a wealthy businessman. After a years-long legal battle over development rights, the property was listed for sale this month. After years-long legal battle, developer lists dune land property for sale in Saugatuck By Lindsey Smith • Aug 26, 2013 Lindsey Smith / Michigan Radio After years of legal wrangling over development rights, energy giant Aubrey McClendon has put a huge property up for sale in Saugatuck. The 300-acre parcel includes coastal dunes near Lake Michigan. McClendon bought the land in 2006 for about $40 million. He spent millions on engineers, architects, designers; and then battling Saugatuck Township in court for the right to develop the land.

Saugatuck Twp considers new settlement with developer over dune land By Lindsey Smith • Mar 12, 2012 Lawyers for Saugatuck Township have reached an agreement to resolve an expensive legal case with a private developer. The case is between the township and a billionaire who owns about 300 acres of property. The land in dispute includes natural dunes on the Lake Michigan shore. The developer says the township has unfairly restrictive zoning laws for his property. The proposed settlement would reverse to the original zoning that's less restrictive. Under the plan, the developer would ask for a zoning variance from the zoning board of appeals. The township's attorney Ron Bultje says the developer may ask for a variance "to essentially develop the property in the manner that was shown on the development plan last summer." That plan included a marina and a hotel. The township will hold a public hearing on the proposed agreement next week. Saugatuck residents hope for resolution with developer in dunes case By Lindsey Smith • Mar 5, 2012 Some people in Saugatuck Township are pushing township officials to review its zoning laws to resolve an expensive legal case with a private developer. Chesapeake Energy CEO Aubrey McClendon owns more than 300 acres in the township, including coastal dune land along Lake Michigan. McClendon says Saugatuck Township officials adopted unfairly restrictive zoning laws for his property. Saugatuck Township board to discuss federal case over dune land By Lindsey Smith • Jan 11, 2012 Lindsey Smith / Michigan Radio Officials in Saugatuck tonight will discuss their options in a federal case between the township and a private developer who wants to build on 300 acres near Lake Michigan coastal dunes. Last July Saugatuck Township voted to accept a settlement with the billionaire developer. The settlement would have allowed a 25-suite hotel, limited retail space and other development plans on his 300 acres along the Lake Michigan shore. But in November a federal judge in Grand Rapids rejected the settlement because he said it violated state zoning laws. The judge also ruled it didn't resolve any of the developer's claims that the township unfairly re-zoned his property. Tonight the township board will meet with its attorney for the first time since the last federal court action in November. The meeting is not open to the public and it's unclear if the board will make any decisions tonight. Federal judge rejects proposed settlement for Saugatuck Dunes By Lindsey Smith • Nov 1, 2011 This story has been updated: An earlier version of this story incorrectly suggested that development was prohibited on all 300 acres of the property.

Third-party groups hope to weigh in on possible Saugatuck deal involving coastal dunes By Lindsey Smith • Aug 2, 2011 Norm Hoekstra / Creative Commons Three non-profit organizations are asking a federal judge to let them weigh in on a proposed settlement between a private developer and Saugatuck Township. Both parties have agreed to the deal, but a federal judge must approve it. The agreement would resolve a longstanding land-use case. Man arrested, police shut down public hearing in Saugatuck By Lindsey Smith • Jul 18, 2011 Lindsey Smith / Michigan Radio The township is seeking public input on a proposed legal settlement with a billionaire looking to develop property along the Lake Michigan shore. The public hearing will have to be rescheduled since police shut it down before anyone got a chance to speak. More than 400 people tried to fit into a space that holds half that. "This was not a good venue to do this," Saugatuck-Douglas Police Chief Ken Giles said. Legal battle between Saugatuck Twp and private developer could be settled outside of court By Lindsey Smith • Jun 28, 2011 Norm Hoekstra / Creative Commons A proposed deal would allow a smaller scale development along the Lake Michigan shore. Aubrey McClendon owns more than 300 acres north of where the Kalamazoo River empties into Lake Michigan. He wants to build a marina, condos, houses, and a golf course there. McClendon argues Saugatuck Township officials unfairly singled him out because they banned any development on the property without special permits. So he sued them in federal court.

Paige Tapp, center right, and Nora Reed, center left, combined for a double block during a Northern Lights practice. The unusually close team of elite players competes for an AAU national title this week. Photo: Bruce Bisping * firstname.lastname@example.com
Paige and Hannah Tapp made their first 90-minute trip to the Northern Lights volleyball training center in Burnsville in December of 2011. Coming from the southeastern Minnesota volleyball hotbed of Stewartville, the tall and talented twin sisters were looking to take their game to another level. Northern Lights, with a roster that reads like a who's-who of metro-area volleyball players, seemed like just the place to do it.
They entered the volleyball palace, unsure of what to expect or even if they belonged. That feeling lasted about as long as introductions.
"We were really nervous at first," said Paige Tapp, who, at 6-2, is an inch shorter than her sister. "But we felt accepted pretty much right away. We've been comfortable here almost from the beginning."
The sisters immediately took their places on Northern Lights' top team at their age level. Among the seven other players on the team were Alyssa Goehner, Lakeville North's dynamic outside hitter; Sarah Wilhite, Eden Prairie's lanky hitting and digging machine; and Samantha Seliger Swenson, a smooth, heady setter whose play belies that she's two years younger than the others.
Their talents meshed so well that Northern Lights won the U.S. Junior National 17-Under Championship last summer in Columbus, Ohio.
"That was one of the best feelings I've ever had," Hannah Tapp said.
The core five are together again this year with four new teammates from the metro area and they've moved up to the highest level available for girls 18 and under. They spent the spring asserting themselves as one of the nation's best youth teams, winning elite tournaments in Omaha and Denver and compiling a 62-3 record. The jewel was winning the Pordenone (Italy) Memorial in early April, becoming only the second American team to win the prestigious international event.
In short, the Northern Lights' 18-1 Junior Olympic girls' volleyball can make a strong case for being the best girls' volleyball team to ever come out of Minnesota.
"There have been other teams we've had that have had as much individual talent," coach and club director Adam Beamer said. "But the thing that sets this team apart is how well they get along. This is the best team, in that sense of the word."
Northern Lights is competing in Orlando this week, trying to win another AAU national championship. When that tournament is over, the team heads to Dallas with their eyes on an even bigger prize: the U.S. Junior Olympic Championship.
Winning one would be a tremendous accomplishment. Winning both? Practically unheard of, but it's what the Northern Lights girls have in mind.
"We're focused," said Wilhite, one of four players on the team who will be playing college volleyball for the Gophers. "And we are all so supportive of each other. That helps so much. We all know what we have to do."
This team includes newcomers in defensive specialists Lauren Houg of Wayzata and Kat Hawkins of Blaine, outside hitter Tegan LaBerge of Maple Grove and middle blocker Nora Reed of Hopkins. Together since early December, the teammates' current 11-day journey is their fourth and longest out-of-state trip.
For many teams, fatigue and personality conflicts would be their biggest worry. But this group's strength is getting along, and it shows on the court.
"That is the amazing thing," Houg said. "You have elite athletes all together in one place and we all enjoy each other's company so much. You can have nine great individuals, but if they don't come together as a team, you aren't going to win anything."
A strong bond among teammates has been evident from the beginning, Wilhite said, but the trip to Italy provided the industrial-strength glue.
"That was the most incredible experience," she said. "We hung out all the time. We were always together. We didn't want to go to our own rooms. That's when you could really feel our, well, teaminess."
With such differing backgrounds and schools, such "teaminess" is remarkable. It's also not quite as organic as the players would like to believe.
"It's taken a little bit of work," said Beamer, a 30-year volleyball coach and player who has seen firsthand how conflict and selfishness can whittle away at high hopes.
"We stressed bonding from day one," he said. "We talked about getting things out in the open and supporting each other. Last year, we had a long talk about it and since then, everything has been great."
While Northern Lights has been clearly been among the best teams in the nation for two years — "People know who we are," Wilhite said — the task ahead is tougher than it was a year ago. To win the titles they're shooting for, they'll likely have to beat two archrivals on their home courts: Orlando Amateur Volleyball in the AAU tournament and Texas Amateur Volleyball in Dallas. Seeing the difficult road ahead, Beamer spoke realistically.
"There are some really good, athletic teams. We can't make mistakes and expect to win," he said. "But the best part of this team is that no one gets down on each other. They're all pulling for each other. That makes a huge difference."
Win or lose, team members are aware of their place in Minnesota volleyball history. They are also aware that this will be their last time playing together. Seven of them are headed off to college (Goehner and Seliger Swenson are still in high school), ready to take the next step in their volleyball careers.
"I'm excited to see what I can do in college," said Wilhite, who will share a dorm room at Minnesota with the Tapp sisters. "But I'll never forget this team. They aren't just friends. Their like sisters."

BUZZO, Walther Rogério e MOCCELLIN, João Vitor. Production scheduling in flow shop systems by using a hybrid genetic algorithm-simulated annealing heuristic. Gest. Prod. [online]. 2000, vol.7, n.3, pp.364-377. ISSN 0104-530X. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0104-530X2000000300012.
This paper deals with the Permutation Flow Shop Scheduling problem. Many heuristic methods have been proposed for this scheduling problem. A class of such heuristics finds a good solution by improving initial sequences for the jobs through search procedures on the solution space as Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Simulated Annealing (SA). A promising approach for the problem is the formulation of hybrid metaheuristics by combining GA and SA techniques so that the consequent procedure is more effective than either pure GA or SA methods. In this paper we present a hybrid Genetic Algorithm-Simulated Annealing heuristic for the minimal makespan flow shop sequencing problem. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the hybridization we compare the hybrid heuristic with both pure GA and SA heuristics. Results from computational experience are presented.

I like his mysterious demeanor and envy his ability to block certain emotions so he can get to the task at hand.
The entertainment industry devolving, how depressing that is. What is it going to take to turn the situation around?
"My Name's Elliot, and.....I'm a Fandalorian...."
"Hello Elliot"
LOL! This thread is starting to remind me of an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting!
I'm 38. It looks like I'm the suscriber so far.
Don't feel too bad Humorbot5. I went through a trekker phase myself some 15 years back. Now I'm virtually all fandalorian.

If being a Fett fan makes one a fandolorian. I have been one for 26 years!
Sharra Fett, publishing is on hold until the new library is finished. It'll be in its own specialized CMS (content management system), which means some extra functionality and tools for submitting, reading, and sharing the stories.
Thanks Aaron! I was wondering what was going on. I look forward to the new library when it's finished.
Either that or I seriously need to see those movies a second or third time.
Okay! We all agree Star Wars is #1. Now which episode is #1 among the six? I vote for AOTC.
Wow! You people are really observant. I didn't notice that Yoda was different from movie to movie.
My favorite spot is fan fiction. I like to see the variations on the Fett story people come up with. It's a shame no one has submitted anything to it since April of last year.
There IS a picture of her in the back of my copy of "Bloodlines". She has black shoulder length hair and fair skin. Her eyes look like they could be either blue or green.
That's interesting Star Wars is #1 in Australia. Here in the states it's probably something more serious like " Million Dollar Baby" or "On Golden Pond".
I don't think changing the stormtroopers voice to Temuera Morrison's would be good either. Iy would be rather eerie have different people with the same voice. As it was, the stormtroopers were not clones but individuals who opted to join the Imperial Academy.
I'm glad to hear you're almost 30. For awhile there I thought there must be something wrong with me being 38 years old and A Boba Fett fan.
Boba Dude I 'm sorry to hear you had a brain tumor. I hope you are still doing well. I am glad the surgery was a success. : )
Norwich is too far away from my neck of the woods for me to go. I do like your photograph,however, thank you for sharing it with us. It is also nice to know Jeremy Bulloch (did I spell that right?) is a pleasant person. Welcome aboard!
If it's any consolation to you Hauller I think Boba Fett is cool also. As long it's not offensive I have no problem with what kind of thread you start. By the way, welcome to the Boba Fett Fan Club!
Thanks Maltese for answering that question for awhile there I thought RPG was some kind of weapon!
I liked the idea of Boba being an unaltered clone. It was fascinating seeing Boba as a kid and getting some background on what his life was like. I prefer it over the original story of him being an ex-journeyman protector. I was even more pleased to find out from the books he differs from Jango in some ways.
Probably Boba, Jango we don't get much information on. Boba is the more mysterious one.
Awesome!! What I woiuldn't give to have that opportunity to be photographed with
Boba Fett. But then again, I am not a model and probably wouldn't look as good as you. How was the convention?
Wow! That is a tricky one. I'd say I started out ESB where Boba Fett first appears then had a relapse with Attack of The Clones. Currently leaning towards attack of the clones.

Real Estate Agent Extraordinaire! We were out of town buyers and needed someone with inside expertise. My husband recalled her column in the local San Marino newspaper and said let's try her! Responsive, personal, tireless, determined but mostly, wise. We endured a couple of disappointments and due to her intuitive and honest opinions of our circumstances, we now have the perfect home for us! Carrie, we are forever grateful for your professional care and personal touch.
Carrie helped our family look for and FIND the perfect home! She took the time to share with us specific homes in specific neighborhoods that she knew we would find attractive because she took the time to listen to EXACTLY what we we were looking for. She was patient when we had troubles with our lender and actually even gave us a few other options (although it ultimately became unnecessary) to procure our loan. We could not have done it without her expertise and local knowledge.
Carrie did a fantastic job for us in buying a loft downtown. She found exactly what we wanted and helped us get the right price! She worked with us closely throughout the process. She is a joy to work with. We highly recommend her.
Carrie has represented my wife and I for over 8 years on three separate transactions and each carried out flawlessly to our satisfaction. Carrie is very responsive, innovative, and always had our best interest in mind. She was professional and used her experience in negotiations as we purchased and sold properties in down and up markets - all of which done on time and closed without any issues. I would highly recommend Carrie to others and let her show you what she can do. Carrie is the best.
Carrie helped me and my husband find our first home in Los Angeles. We had just moved back from New York, and were looking to buy a home. We looked all over the LA area. West LA, Miracle Mile, and then Downtown LA. She was very helpful and knowledgable about all the areas. She ended up finding us a beautiful brand new loft in Downtown LA that we fell in love with.Carrie is very responsive, helpful, and has a great personality. It was so fun to work with her. I would really recommend working with Carrie, whether it's to sell your home or if you need to buy. She'll listen to what you want and not stop until you are happy. She even sent us a bottle of champagne after we closed. So thoughtful!
We had been renting for years and Carrie walked us through buying our first home. Carrie was great!! I'd recommend her for anyone in and around Pasadena for buying a home. She's so great, responsive, and authentic. I appreciated her candor and honesty most. We're very happy and her negotiation was flawless.
Carrie was amazing at helping us (finally) get a wonderful house. Our purchase was contingent on the sale of our house - which almost never happens anymore. She was a champion at negotiating our deal and was incredible at managing the timing of both our purchase and sale. She was prompt at getting signatures and very responsive in her communication. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell.
Carrie Benuska is a wonderful realtor! Buying and selling can be very stressful, however Carrie is great at putting you at ease and problem solving to no end!!! An amazing communicator, always available and trustworthy! She seeks the best for her clients and goes the distance.
Carrie helped both sell and buy our home and was fabulous to work with. I'd highly recommend her. She was patient, creative, and met our unique situation with lots of ideas and hard work.
Carrie was fabulous to work with. She understood our needs and was honest with us about what was available to us and what was best for our growing family. I would recommend Carrie to anyone looking for a home in the Greater Pasadena area.

Indiana State Treasurer and U.S. Senate Candidate Richard Mourdock pointed out Congressman Joe Donnelly's track record of supporting President Obama's fiscal policies since he has been in office, including increasing the debt ceiling seven times. Yet, Congressman Donnelly has refused to directly respond to whether or not he will be voting for President Obama.
"Congressman Joe Donnelly sided with Obama and against Hoosiers by voting for the Wall Street bailouts, the failed stimulus program, and to increase government spending by increasing the debt ceiling 7 times since taking office," stated Treasurer Mourdock.
For nearly a week, Congressman Joe Donnelly has been directly asked about whether or not he will be voting for President Obama. To date, he has refused to answer the question regarding his support of the President.
"Why doesn't Congressman Joe Donnelly want to answer the Obama question? Simple, President Obama and his failed government policies are not popular with Hoosiers and threaten Indiana jobs.
"Congressman Donnelly, you are a reliable vote for the Obama-Pelosi-Reid agenda in Washington and you can't run away from that, even if you don't want to answer the Obama question," stated Treasurer Mourdock.

Re: Bryan Singer Directing X-Men: Days of Future Past - Part 2
I'll say it again, this is the closest we'll get to an X4. I can't see the studio greenlighting an X-Men film without Fassbender, McAvoy & Lawrence. The majority of this film takes place in '73 meaning the protagonists are Fassbender, McAvoy & Lawrence. The reason we're getting all the players from the original trilogy back is that the film is based on Days of Future Past. You need them there to tell this particular story. I don't see the studio financing an X-Men movie starring Anna Paquin, Ellen Page & Shawn Ashmore. Even if Jackman was in the picture I just don't see them doing that.
I think after Days of Future Past we'll get another X-Men movie three years down the line that continues the story that ended in '73. I doubt we'll see the cast of the original trilogy in that film but rather young versions of Cyclops, Jean Grey & Storm and I think like this film it will jump forward a decade & be set in the 80s.
