  • Nutcracker-Story-With-PBT-Photos.Pdf
    ACT ONE It is Christmas Eve in Pittsburgh over 100 years ago. This is the Stahlbaum’s house in the Shadyside neighborhood. On the street outside, Mr. Drosselmeyer and his Nephew unload Christmas gifts from their cart to take to the Stahlbaum’s party. The Nephew wears a mask because he has been cursed by the Rat King. The mask scares some of the people attending the party. Inside the house, Marie, Dr. Stahlbaum’s daughter, gets ready for the party. She’s reading a book called Kaufmann’s Christmas Stories for Boys and Girls. Her parents present her with two special gifts because she’s growing up: a beautiful scarf and a pair of pointe shoes. The Stahlbaum’s Christmas Eve party begins. There are adults and children dancing, trimming the Christmas tree, and exchanging gifts. Drosselmeyer and the Nephew enter the party. Drosselmeyer makes a pirate doll and other dolls come to life and dance! Drosselmeyer gives Marie a wooden Nutcracker doll. Marie’s brother Fritz breaks the Nutcracker, and the Nephew and Drosselmeyer fix it for Marie. Everyone at the party is afraid of the Nephew because of his mask. But Marie knows that he is kind. After much fun and festivity, the party ends. The guests leave, and the Stahlbaum family exchange their own gifts and go to bed. But Marie has forgotten her Nutcracker. As the clock strikes midnight, she tiptoes back downstairs to find him. Marie is not alone, though. The whole house is under a kind of spell. Giant rats and mice skitter after Marie.

  • Christmas-Around-The-World-Australia.Pdf
    Christmas Around the World Australia Christmas in Australia Geography: Australia is like no other country in the world. It is the only country that is also a continent. It is completely surrounded by water like an island, but because of its size it is classified as a continent. It is the world’s sixth largest country and the smallest continent in area. Australia is known as the “land down under,” because it is the only inhabited continent that is below the equator, and lies completely in the southern Hemisphere. It is located in the South Pacific and Indian Oceans. The huge interior of Australia is mostly desert or dry grassland. It is famous for its vast open spaces, bright sunshine, enormous numbers of sheep and cattle, and unusual wildlife. Preparations: Most Australians trim a tree at Christmas, whether real or artificial, early in December. And many decorate their homes with wattle flowers, bottlebrush and cuttings from Australia’s own Christmas bush. Christmas bush a tall shrub with sepals that turn bright red-pink at around Christmas time. Outdoor lights and decorations have become more popular with nativity scenes and Santa and his team appearing on lawns everywhere. Traditions: Christmas in Australia is celebrated in the country’s summertime, when temperatures can range from 80-100 degrees F. No snow and log fires for them, though their Christmas Cards and traditions usually depict those of colder climates. Australia is a multicultural country and with this, the traditions are often mingled and derived from a mixture of other countries. They have Christmas Trees, Father Christmas, Christmas Carols and gifts, which are a familiar Christmas scenario.

  • Anything Goes a Century of Winters in Oklahoma Runs the Spectrum of Meteorological Possibilities
    OKLAHOMA CLIMATE Winter 2006-2007 Historical Perspective Anything Goes A Century of Winters in Oklahoma Runs the Spectrum of Meteorological Possibilities Feature Stories Helping Keep Schools Safer National Weather Festival Also Inside Fall 2006 Summary AgWeather Watch and Urban Farmer Classroom Activities MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR Gary McManus On November 16, 1907, the United States of America accepted a rather odd-shaped region of the southern Great Plains as its 46th state. This region, which appeared to be thrown together haphazardly, was actually an amalgam of Native American lands, frontier territory, and in the case of the Panhandle, simply land that nobody wanted. Named for the Choctaw words meaning “red people,” Oklahoma was much more than that, of course. Already home to innumerable Native American tribes, freed slaves, as well as immigrants from around the world, the Sooner State became famous as a land of cowboys and farmers, statesmen and humorists. But above all else, Oklahoma became famous for its weather. From the disastrous Dust Bowl days to horrific F5 tornado tragedies, no other region on earth can boast of a more unique climate than our home of sanguine dirt and people. In celebration of Oklahoma’s first 100 years of statehood, “Oklahoma Climate” will embark on a series of explorations into each season’s centennial history. Up first is a look back at 100 years of Oklahoma winters. Too often we get caught defining weather as that which has occurred in our lifetimes. Truth be told, Oklahoma’s winters are ever evolving. Tornadoes, ice storms, heavy snow, and plain old boring sunny days...our winters run the gamut of weather phenomena.
