Performing arts
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The performing arts are those forms of art which differ from the plastic arts insofar as the former uses the artist's own body, face and presence as a medium [i.e. not suited for broadcast radio], and the latter uses materials such as clay, metal or paint which can be molded or transformed to create some physical art object. The term "performing arts" first appeared in the English language in the year 1711.
Types of performing arts
The Performing arts include the dance, music, opera, theater, and circus arts [e.g. clowns].
Artists who participate in these arts in front of an audience are called performers, including actors, comedians, dancers, musicians, and singers. Performing arts are also supported by workers in related fields, such as songwriting and stagecraft.
Performers often adapt their appearance, such as with costumes and stage makeup, etc.
There is also a specialized form of fine art in which the artists perform their work live to an audience. This is called Performance art. Most performance art also involves some form of plastic art, perhaps in the creation of props. Dance was often referred to as a plastic art during the Modern dance era.

WFAS-FM Heads For The Big Apple
[...]
*Here's some good news from MAINE: veteran Portland morning man Bud Sawyer is returning to the air soon, via low-power WJZF-LP (97.1 Standish). Sawyer, last heard on Portland's WLOB (1310) but best remembered for his long stints with WPOR and WGAN, will be heard 7-10 AM weekdays, broadcasting from his home overlooking the Atlantic Ocean in Falmouth.
WJZF is as good a place as any to begin the next installment of our plunge into the sea of applications from the 2007 Non-Comm FM Window, inasmuch as the Standish Citizens Educational Organization, licensee of the LPFM, has applied for a full-power signal, with 9.7 kW on 88.1. That application ended up MX'd to two other 88.1 applications - a 50 kW in Bowdoin from Light of Life Ministries, one of nine Maine applications from that religious broadcaster, and a 1 kW application in Hallowell from the University of Maine - as well as to an 88.3 in Kennebunkport (New Life Media) and to several New Hampshire applicants.
In addition to Light of Life's 9 applications, at least 17 others among the 45 Maine applications were from religious broadcasters. Calvary Chapel of Portland applied for 88.5 Westbrook and 89.7 Freeport, with the Westbrook application being one of four to make the FCC's "singleton" list.
The other Maine singletons are Light of Life's 88.1 Pittston Farm and the University of Maine's 91.5 Farmington and 91.7 Machias applications.
A few others worth noting: the Appalachian Performing Arts Institute, based in Tennessee, applied for 88.1 Presque Isle and 90.5 Kittery, while another Tennessee-based applicant using the same consulting engineer, the Appalachian Educational Communication Corp., applied for 90.7 in Livermore Falls and Wilton.

themiddleclass.org: U.S. Rep. David Davis Fails Lower & Middle Class Families In East Tennessee

Here is the one congressional report card from www.themiddleclass.org that U.S. Representative David Davis doesn't want you to read!
About TheMiddleClass.org
Since 2003, the non-partisan Drum Major Institute for Public Policy (DMI) has issued annual scorecards analyzing the impact of domestic legislation on America's current and aspiring middle class and evaluating Members of Congress based on their votes on this legislation.
But once a year just isn't enough. We need to understand what Congress is voting on as they are voting on it if we truly want to hold them accountable. And so we've created themiddleclass.org, a dynamic site that will update throughout the year as members of Congress vote on legislation of significance to the current and aspiring middle class.
On TheMiddleClass.org, you will find DMI's analyses of bills that would have a significant impact (positive or negative) on the squeezed middle class, as well as on the aspirations of low-income Americans who want to work their way into the middle class. Since we are also tallying legislators' votes on the bills, we look only at legislation
that has received a roll call vote in at least one chamber of Congress. Notable bills that have not yet been voted on are briefly discussed in the "Pending Legislation" section.

And according to the news article "Web site takes issue with Davis record" ( http://www.themiddleclass.org ) appearing within the March 20, 2008 edition of the Johnson City Press, Mahmood (Michael) Sabri has also picked up his papers to run as a republican primary candidate against David Davis during the August 7 GOP primary:
