We must use drama in some way to represent it. Suggested ideas have been comedy, song and dance. What are some other creative ways of performing this that can somehow incorporate in acting?

If it helps the story is The First Waratah.

Thank you (:

a cool way that i think is interesting is by performing it as a gi where a whole group talks at the same time and stuff… youtube group interpretation if you wana see an example theres a bunch haha. sorry song and dance is good too!

In order for the system to perform as intended, all of the components must perform. Each has the same probability of performance. If the system is to have a .92 probability of performing, what is the minimum probability of performing needed by each of the individual components?

cubic root of 0.92 = 0.973

I am already of aware with programs such as Interlochen, The Performing Arts Institute at Wyoming Seminary, and The Arts Edge. I am a sophomore and wish to pursue musical theatre as a career and come from a low income family, so preferably one with hefty financial aid or scholarships. So if anyone has gone to or knows of any similar programs, that’d be great. :)

I’m thinking about getting into the business and am wondering which side to be on. In my opinion, investors would feel the investment is "safer" with a performing mortgage as the borrowers are consistently paying on the mortgage and the very next month payments should be expected. However, with non-performing mortgages the risks are greater (foreclosures, REOs, etc) but the profit potential is MUCH higher. So, would it be better to invest in performing or non performing mortgages? Thanks for any responses.

Yes, a non-performing loan will bring you a much higher return, but only IF you can buy this loan at a decent discount AND IF the value of the underlying real estate is substantially higher than the balance of the loan. You should also check with a title company to verify there are no major other liens recorded against the property ahead of your mortgage’s position.

In a non-performing loan you almost certainly must foreclose to get your money back. After the foreclosure you will probably have to rehabilitate the property to make it suitable for sale, since the prior owner had no interest in curing any of the deferred maintenance. After foreclosure you will also earn no interest on your property until it is sold.

So it it still worth it? Yes, but only if you really do your homework first. Been there, done that.

My school provides excellent academic classes and plenty of AP classes in the future. I’m a freshman right now and i’m worried. I really want to get into a good college.

College admissions are based on many factors, one of them being the type of high school you went to. If your high school offered the standard college prep courses in science, math, social studies and English, you are off to a good start.

But admissions also looks at the academic rating of your high school. You may be the valedictorian of your high school, but if your school has a low academic standing or a small student population, being valedictorian won’t help you. That type of school will work against you in getting admitted.

They also look at how well-rounded you are. What type of extra-curricular activities did you participate in? Were you a leader in any of those activities? Did you participate in any volunteer organizations? Did you create your own website?

The schools you want to apply to definitely will look at those things. College is an experience where you meet, work, and live with people of different social backgrounds and values. They want to see that you have a background of exposure to new ideas and can academically adjust and evaluate new ideas.

The universities you intend to apply to are quite competitive, so you are at a perfect age now to plan for the all-around background needed to impress an admissions counselor.
