George Trendle was a lawyer who specialized in movie and theatrical contracts. As with any lawyer, he was never short of money. However, he would often be a key negotiator in some big money deals which must have left him wondering if he was on the right side of the fence. His chance to jump came in 1928 when John King offered Trendle a 25% stake in his Kunsky Theaters company. King wanted Trendle on board for a good reason. He knew that Trendle was a hard, ruthless and obstinate negotiator and King was looking for a buyer for this business. And so it was, a year after Trendle’s arrival, that Kunsky Theaters was sold for a cool $6 million. This made George Trendle a millionaire at the age of 44 at a time when a millionaire was a rarity.

Both John King and George Trendle had been witness to - and had become rich because of - the great popularity of movies. They must also have been aware of the rise of their greatest competitor for audience - the radio. They therefore continued their association by forming King-Trendle Broadcasting and purchased radio stations WOOD and WGHP in 1930. At the time of the purchase, much of the evening peak air-time on WGHP was used to broadcast Columbia network (CBS) output. Trendle found this arrangement stifling as it left the station as nothing more than a relay in the evenings. Potential local advertisers had little influence over show content and few sponsorship opportunities were available when the shows were not locally produced. On the other hand WXYZ (its new call sign) did have access to quality shows that included the best entertainers, orchestras, scripts and production techniques that Columbia had to offer. Trendle tried to curtail the Columbia content in favour of locally produced shows, but they could not agree to Trendle’s ideas. Perhaps another sign of his stubborn nature, or perhaps because of the confidence of an overflowing bank balance, negotiations with Columbia broke down and the WXYZ went independent. Now there would be plenty of local shows!

This may have been liberating for George Trendle but it was surely a little scary as the station’s fixed overheads were suddenly starved of the regular income from the Columbia deal. Cutting costs was only a partial answer to the problem. Trendle and King knew that shrinking a business to fit financial realities is a short term necessity. They also knew that, in normal times, the longer term trend should be the other way. Suddenly though, the early 1930’s were not normal. This was the start of the Great Depression. Although not a full depression first, both men could see all around them evidence of bad times to come. Haemorrhaging money at the rate they were would not have been such a serious problem had the outside world remained stable. The trouble was, the outside world was in a financial meltdown. Severe cost-cutting was the order of the day, but, even during a depression, Trendle and King were looking for light at the end of the tunnel.

They needed a new idea. Something home-grown. Something that would have wide appeal, wider even than WXYZ’s local audience - but something that would cost very little.

Having thought long and hard about it, George Trendle realized that they should major on drama. It was relatively low cost and he was lucky enough to have access to talented and prolific writer Francis Striker and Jim Jewell’s drama group. Trendle also realized that they needed a hero. One day he grabbed Fran Striker and asked him to come up with some ideas around the theme of a wild west hero who would appeal to kids; someone how would be wholesome - and be on the right side of the law. Jim Jewell was also asked to pitch in. Trendle encouraged his team to think big. A lot was at stake.

Many on the station had been let go; others were on a reduced salary while many worked on a promise without even being on the payroll. Revenue had slumped as the big national shows were no longer being aired and, worst still, advertising budgets were being slashed as the recession was turning into a depression. Trendle thought the hero of the new show should be a lone, mysterious figure; someone who is strong enough to fight for his principals but who is kind at heart. He had a vision of Robin Hood and Zorro and wanted someone in between the two, set in an historic western setting.

Striker was set to work on a number of sketched stories. Each sketch was taken to Trendle and each time was sent back for re-working. Too much violence - Trendle didn’t want to alienate advertisers and sponsors; the hero was too young - the kids needed someone to look up to. Eventually, Fran Striker, Jim Jewell and studio manager Harold True came up with the masked Texas ranger - the Lone Ranger. With Trendle’s eye for a good business prospect, it must have soon occurred to him that the mask would mean that no one actor could monopolise the character. This may have been radio, but Trendle was always aware of the potential for merchandising and movies.

Jim Jewell was appointed as the show’s director and supplied the actors from his own repertory company, including George Seaton who played the first Lone Ranger. With minimum rehearsal and preparation, the show first aired in January 1933. In the first few weeks George Trendle had no idea how popular the show was, until, that is, the audience started to write in. Letters arrived in their hundreds and then in their thousands as it soon became clear that Trendle had a hit on his hands. The Lone Ranger was not only a hero in the fictional sense, he also happened to be the saviour of WXYZ. At first the show had no sponsor, but soon there were no shortage of takers.

Trendle milked the cash cow that the Lone Ranger became by having the show syndicated on radio stations WOR in New York and WGN in Chicago (later, along with WXYZ, to collectively become Mutual Broadcasting System). A successful spin-off series, Green Hornet, was also aired and toys and comics were licensed to use the Lone Ranger concept. In 1949 the show was brought to ABC television and lasted for eight years - a very long time in television terms. During the tv run, Trendle sold the rights to the Lone Ranger, probably at the height of the character’s stock.

It could be said that the Lone Ranger saved George Trendle’s WXYZ radio station just in time. This is far too simplistic. Trendle was a good businessman who knew when to invest and when to sell out. He had to balance this ability with his obvious stubborn ways. It was this very stubbornness that drove him to go it alone and make a success of producing his own shows and it was his business sense that brought about his ruthless cost cutting (a trait he never shook off even in more affluent times). He had a vision and nobody was going to knock him off his horse. He was a great leader who had a knack of getting the best out of his people at least cost. If the Lone Ranger saved him then it should never be forgotten that it was George Trendle who created his own saviour.

Carnivorous creatures roamed the deep of the gulf, in Hades; they just never seemed to bother with Ais, outside of pushing her here and there, now and then, when she swam in the gulf waters. Somehow she did not irritate the creatures, or monsters, as they did, those who didn’t belong there, those who tried to escape from Hell’s boats bound for Hell’s docks. Then they would, like lions set free from their dens, these cadaverous amphibians, would massacre its prey.

The long and enduring period Ais had to stay and endure the gulf, was really boring for the most part, not much to do. She thought of Anases and he of her in these past days, and Belphegor and Agaliarept also thought about Ais, wondered what had become of her, and how they would go on living in this inner world, not quite meant for her kind. Perhaps they wanted simply to gawk at her trying to endure her strange and terrible fate, it would not be unlike them. It was funny to the demonic forces, seeing two souls in Hell that didn’t belong there, each for their own reasons: one running after her lover, husband, feeling bound beyond its limits to him; he other, obsessed with scrolls, another lost lover, his being Atlantis. To Agaliarept, it was all immaterial, proportional to him, both running after lost causes.

In any case, here they all were searching for something in the labyrinthine gulf; it was then that Ais found Anases, and they joined together in a new predicament, to find an opening to the legendary ‘Limbo,’ they once heard about, lest it be pure legend with no teeth, if so, a sad day it would be, and the loss of all hope. During this time of search on the gulf, the couple spotted the demonic ship in search for them, frantically they tried to sway away from Hell’s elite vessel, but fifty-feet beside them, and they did, thus, undiscovered.

My point is there are lots of soft games available on party and lots of easy money to be won.

Lets assume that you are a pretty good magician and have developed a great personality to use when performing a magic act for children’s parties. If you haven’t yet devolved a personality, stop here and go create one.

Watch some of the great children’s magicians and learn from them what kind of personality you need to create.

The old second hand tux and a top hat no longer will work. Children are pretty savvy these days… even the little ones.

Children don’t understand the cues in a live performance that are so common. Today’s kids have been raised in the age of television. Not a bad thing, except the laugh tracks tell the children when to laugh.

No laugh tracks and the children are left out in the cold. They are quick and will get up to speed in no time. But they need your help.

The same problem exists with applause. Children are not used to clapping. They don’t understand applause cues. Those wonderfully timed applause cues will leave you and your audience with a lot of uncomfortable silence.

What can be done?

Everything.

One of your most important tasks as a children’s magician is your opening. The beginning of your show must do these things:

1.Establish audience control….. Even in school children are taught to obey those in authority. For some reason, many magicians forget to establish authority early in the show. The result resembles a saloon brawl in the wild west.

2.Teach the children to react to applause cues. After you welcome everyone to the show, look out over the audience and say, “This looks like a really great crowd. Let’s see how loud you can clap. On the count of three ONE. . . TWO . . THREE . .Not bad!

Let’s try it again. On three . . .” After some byplay conclude by saying, “What do we do when we like the magic? (pause) What do we do when we LOVE the magic?” (pause and react strongly to the crowd).

If you want to start your career in magic as a children’s magician, think about it seriously. Kids are brutally honest. There is nothing tougher or more satisfying than have a great children’s magic show.

Being a children’s magician may not be the easiest way to become a part-time professional magician but it sure is a lot of fun.

Each language represents culture of the country where it is spoken. It consists of various parts among which is speech, verbal and nonverbal communication, numerals, symbols, gestures, etc.
Language is a very important component of our every day life for it gives us an opportunity not simply receive and forward information, but express our feelings and emotions, make things more interesting by interpreting them differently using various language styles.

We should develop our language for more we know- more possibilities we have. Yet, we must be careful because language itself is a very powerful tool, and if used incorrect – can be a very strong weapon against you.

Clearly, languages reflect the priorities of a culture. Unlike some
other elements of cultures, language permeates all parts of
society. Nations vary dramatically in their tolerance for a variety
of languages. By contrast, language structures our thinking and
opinions. One step to creating better international understanding is
to be conscientious about using language that accurately conveys what
we mean. Language knows no political boundaries. Every place in the
world has its own unique kind of people. Each member of a sub-cultural
deserves respect, since they have their own mix of physical,
intellectual, emotional, and spiritual assets to contribute.

Geographically, language is correct in their area. However, in each
of these locations, individuals have problems with accents, dialect,
and speech rate such as stuttering. Language barrier tend to cause
decline in productivity and frustration amongst the company,
employees, and customers.

Language (Cultural) difference cause barriers in the workplace and it can have a negative effect on the environment at the workplace. Due to growth in diversities in business, companies have to employ different cultures. Companies that fail to accommodate individuals are subject to discrimination lawsuits. Though companies set up different programs in order to combat this problem, cultural diversity continues to grow and issues continue.

As organizations introduce diversity, the culture of the workplace
will change. People make judgments based on what they already know of
their own values and beliefs. When the unknown element is
interjected, it causes confusion, fear, and chaos. This forces people
to question themselves and defend their beliefs. When organizations
increase diversity in the work environment, clashes occur amongst
different cultures. Diversity brings in different perspectives,
different approaches to problem solving, different visions, different
languages, and different expectations. Communications, in
face-to-face exchanges as well as through company newsletters and
training sessions, should be welcoming and should accentuate the
positive effects of employing workers with varying talents and
accomplishments (Developing Diversity Initiatives, 1993).

Organizations change as they become more diverse. Many changes will
cause anger, frustration, and confusion. The introduction of cultural
diversity, which includes different languages, causes organizations to
go through five stages:

Anger - Workers will resist change and expect others to fit their
norms and speak their language.

Passive Regression - People will become withdrawn. There will be
little to no sharing of information, which is very important to be
successful.

Chaos - Groups form and struggle to regain power. This when
discrimination accusations begin to surface.

Reclamation- this where the bridge builders arrive. They bridge the
gaps between the groups. Bridge builders can belong to any group,
respect other positions, and have pride in their own cultural
identities. It is the bridge builders who can act as a link between
the groups

Celebration - This is the celebration of a new diverse culture. It
is understood by everyone, that language and cultural diversity
benefits everyone. The people are not uptight but comfortable and
understanding of each other’s culture. This is the longest and most
difficult stage for the groups to complete.

There are steps that companies can take to prevent civil unrest within
an organization. The following steps can be used to prevent
confrontation and assist in creating a positive and productive
environment:

Purpose - Develop a strong sense of purpose for the employees that
transcend all differences including language. A common purpose will
keep the working together for the common goal. By developing purpose,
the organization is relaying the message that all the different groups
and cultures are on the same team and are all one company.

Tell Stories - Stories help connect the groups. Through stories,
different groups can relate to each other as people. Stories also
give the groups a chance to voice its opinions and concerns.

Self Awareness - Companies should develop self awareness

Within the organization commonly, people are afraid of the unknown.
By developing self-awareness, the organization forces the groups to
face the unknown and to overcome their fears and insecurities.

Training Programs- Companies should implement training programs to
teach the different groups to be culturally aware of one another. The
programs should also include language courses to teach communication
skills.

Organizations are adapting a number of approaches to overcome
language barriers among employees (Journal of Business, 2000).
English is the universal language of business, and it is only one of
several languages spoken in the United States. It is very important
for organizations to create an environment where everyone, despite
language spoken, is considered equal. Companies are offering training
courses and providing translators to make everyone feel comfortable.
As the population becomes more diverse and the traditional societies
are becomes more mobile, companies are faced with cultural and
language issues. It is up to the organization to make sure it is
taking all the necessary steps to ensure that groups and cultures
effectively work together and is productive.

Language does more than simply describe reality; it also serves to
shape the reality of a culture (Colorado Business Communication,
1991). Like other forms of language, nonverbal communication is not
the same in all cultures. It can take many forms such as facial
expressions and visual images to learn nonverbal communication from
people who share our same culture. For instance, people with hearing
loss communicate using sign language that is another way of
communicating. Your signing hand is the hand you write and color with
and your other hand is the helping hand. This technique found @
www.signlanguage.org is informative for nonverbal communication.
Gesture, body posture, direction of attention, eye contact, level of
conversation, and other behaviors are interpreted as signs of
inclusion and exclusion.

However, there are many layers of communicating further. Verbal
language and body language signifies whether the line of interaction
is conveyed and not a form of evasiveness. With the perception that
English is the universal language, it is not always perceived by all
nations or society as a whole. Those of us who do use English do so
in spite of our ambiguity towards it, or perhaps because we can find
in that linguistic struggle a reflection of other struggles taking
place in the real world, struggle between the cultures within
ourselves and the influences at work upon our societies. To conquer
English may be to complete the process of making ourselves free. As
relations grow in the workplace, the social interaction is not the
same. For example, when Spanish-speaking employees interact with
English-speaking employees some issues that formulate are: which
language to speak or when to use an interpreter. In a social setting
it is even harder when greeting and addressing people correctly. Thou
not to provide a definitive answer to language as related to
pronunciation, it is difficult to understand individuals whom speak
English but with an accent. Often, individuals are asked repeatedly
what is being said in order to convey what was said. Bahri (Language,
2003) states ‘Language as communication and as culture are then
products of each other ‘Language carries culture, and culture carries,
particularly through orature and literature, the entire body of values
by which we perceive ourselves and our place in the world’. Language is
thus inseparable from us as community of human beings with a
specific form and character, a specific history, a specific
relationship to the work.

Language is a critical element of culture.
Members of society generally share a common language, which
facilitates day-to-day exchanges with others. There are many ways of
communicating language in the workforce and, it is not the only way to
show a line of interaction to work together but a way of social
interaction. The work force is just one avenue to rectify the
critical success for today’s employer when diversity by today’s
standards is met.

Do you always end up playing beer drinking games when you are with your friends? If the answer is yes, you probably end up playing the same beer games every time. If you want to spice up your Friday and Saturday nights a bit more, you can introduce a new game to your friends. Remember that if you want to play drinking games, you should make sure to offer your guests non-alcoholic beverages, such as water or coffee, and some snacks to help soak up the alcohol. Being a good friend means that you respect your friends, so if someone wants to quit, let them. Otherwise, have a good time, and enjoy playing this game during your next night out with the boys, a co-ed party, or a bachelor party.

There are tons of different beer games to play, but what you really need is a game that will get everyone excited and laughing. The name of the game is Flash. It is best played with at least four or five players, but the more players that you have the more fun (and difficult) it becomes.

Everyone sits in a circle so that each person can see every other person. Make sure to keep a bit of room in between each player for people to join in at any time, and to give yourself a bit of space to flash your sign.

Each person chooses a hand gesture or funny face that will represent him or her. It doesn’t matter what the face or gesture is, as long as it is short. Your hand gesture or face can be flirty, rude, exotic, or anything else, but make sure that you choose one that you can easily remember.

Go around the circle one time and have each person perform his or her hand motion or funny face. Make sure that you can remember as many of your friend’s gestures or faces as possible, because it is going to help you in the game.

To get the game going, you need to get a steady rhythm or beat going. You can easily do this by having everyone tap their feet two times and then clap their hands once.

One person starts by performing his hand motion or face, followed immediately by someone else in the group’s gesture. Keeping in time with the rhythm, this person must then perform someone their hand motion followed by someone else’s gesture.

When a player breaks the rhythm, either because they weren’t paying attention and didn’t see their gesture or face, or they can’t come up with someone’s hand gesture, they have to drink. The amount that each player drinks when they lose should be determined before the game starts. You can all drink the same amount of beer, or you give people special handicaps based on their drinking abilities.

After the penalty period, play begins again the same way as before, with the person who just had to drink starting up the action. If you think the game is too easy, you can speed up the tempo a bit to make things go a bit faster!

Flash is a great game, because it gets everyone loosened up a bit and also gets people moving a bit. If you want to get your next party or gathering going, you can try to play this beer drinking game. The game is also good for getting people talking and interacting with each other; for example, if you are playing with a cute girl, you can guarantee that her eyes will be on you when it is your turn to flash.

Like most school kids growing up in the UK in the 1970’s I attended French classes at school - 2 lessons a week, 40 weeks a year, for 3 years. During all this time, I don’t actually know what I learned! I know that I didn’t take the subject particularly seriously, but after a total of 240 lessons I should have had a better command of the language.

Just how poor my command of French was, was illustrated in a family trip to France in 1978. As an eighteen year-old, I joined my parents on a car trip to France. The ferry trip was uneventful and we hopped into our car at Calais.

My dad, being a typical pom, assumed everyone drives on the left hand side of the road – and within 5 minutes we had a head-on collision! Fortunately no one was hurt. But, as expected the other diver was pretty angry, hurling abuses to us in French.

As someone who had taken French for 3 years, my parents looked at me to speak to this chap in French and calm him down. To my embarrassment all I could say was “The sky is blue”. Not very useful!

Some thirty years later, I decided to give French another go. This time, I actually wanted to speak the language and made a commitment to learn French within 3 months.

As a seasoned user of audio books, I found and then bought the “Teach Yourself French” series of audio books. I listened to these books while walking the dog each morning and driving to and from work each day.
Initially I didn’t pay that much attention and it all seemed too difficult. Then, it began to get easier and easier.

Within 8 weeks I became quite comfortable with hearing French and could follow most of what was being said. Within 12 weeks, I’d say that I was almost fluent! All this from just an hour a day listening to my audiobook during “down” time!

I’m please to report that on my latest trip to France, I could say a lot more than “The Sky is Blue”. And no, I didn’t drive on the left hand side of the road and didn’t have a collision!

Music is an illusive and hard to define phenomenon. It is more than just a bunch of sounds strung together, it is a magic that draws out our emotions and creates a feeling in our hearts. The interesting thing is that one person’s music, is another person’s compilation of random noises. The truth is no type of music is better than another type.

Let’s say you are a high-brow lover of classical music (OK, that may be a stretch, but play along – you might learn something). You’re really into your Bach and Chopin, but you may not appreciate heavy metal or hip hop. To you they may be empty random sounds devoid of meaning. To you the beauty of classical music seems obvious – not like that other stuff.

However, the young urban kid feels the same way about their hip hop. To them hip hop is real and relevant. The lyrics are not just words, they convey a meaning that speaks to their fears, plights, and dreams. The music touches them in a personal way – a way that little else in their daily life can.

The fact is that music is an emotional experience that reflects the type of person that we are. What draws us to a certain genre or musical style is in essence the desire for understanding and acceptance. Each of us is a hand in search the glove that will make us feel the emotional support that we need inside.

For one person they may need to feel normal and understood. They will likely search out music that fills this void. They will appreciate lyrics that are a reflection of their lives and choices. For another, they may seek out music that makes them feel inspired. Some are drawn to love songs, while others to the blues.

Each of us needs to feel connected in life, and that is more important today than in any time in the past. Our society moves so fast, and the stability of family and community of yesteryear may not be present in our lives today. Each of us is searching for that musical soul mate that will make us feel completed.

Music is personal. The type of music we appreciate does not depend on the music itself, but how the music fits us as individuals. No one type of music is better than another. Each is a unique personal experience that will touch some people in a way that makes them feel whole. All types of music are valid. You may or may not appreciate a style – in fact, you may be bored by it or even offended. But you can not dismiss any type of music. Each represents a voice which must be heard in our society.

Since no type of music is better than another, that ultimately means that no song is better than another, and thus no musician or singer is better than another. Each artist has something to bring to the table, an individual perspective that is different than everyone else’s. Sure we all have our preferences, and a particular singer may have better projection or be able to hit a note better. But those are technical elements. Music is an emotional response to a variety of acoustic elements. It’s not about how a song sounds, it’s about how you hear it, it’s about how it fits you.

Don’t be narrow in your appreciation of music. Search far and wide for songs that speak to you. Listen to the lyrics, feel the rhythm, let the music envelope you. Music can create understanding across cultural barriers. Stretch beyond your comfort zone. Listen to artists and styles that may seem foreign to you. You may just find a glove that fits your hand better than you ever imagined.
