It takes a lot of dedication, planning, prioritizing, and management to put together a show or concert. Stage management was a fairly new concept in the 1300s and only emerged as a distinct role in theatre in the 1600s. Some duties of a stage manager include creating and setting up rehearsal schedules; managing furniture and props; arranging costume fittings; and liaising with theater departments, producers, actors, and technical crew. So the next time you go to a show take a moment and think about what it took for that show to be ready for a live audience.

News; game: movie password; what's the 20-5-3 rule?; goodbye/fun facts: moldy cheese day...While most foods that have mold on them mean that they have been left too long and need to be thrown out, cheese is one food that can be an exception! However, not all cheeses are meant to be eaten when they are moldy, but for a few types, the mold is intentionally added to create a type of cheese that has a unique texture and flavor like Gorgonzola, blue, Camembert, Brie and Stilton. Moldy cheeses are rich in calcium, protein, and probiotics. The molds can aid digestion and contribute to gut health. and if you don't want to eat any moldy cheese...you can always watch Monty Python's cheese shop skit.

Well, the advertising agency for Durkee-Mower created it in 1960 in an attempt to effectively market the peanut butter and marshmallow sandwich. But marshmallow creme has been around way longer than you might think! In 1917, Archibald Query of Somerville, Massachusetts invented a sweet marshmallow-like spread called Marshmallow Creme. Query sold his recipe for Marshmallow Creme to Durkee-Mower, Inc. in 1920, who renamed it Marshmallow Fluff. Over 100 years later they continue to sell it under that name today. and the latest twist...some people add bananas and some people are putting bacon in it for a more savory flavor.

For more than a century, radio stations on college campuses have been places where students can explore and get experience with various careers in different arenas such as music, news, business management, talk shows, technology and much more. The presence of college radio in the United States can be traced back to the 1920s when several different colleges (all who claim to be the first!) began their radio stations. The one most commonly given credit was Union College in Schenectady, New York, who started its radio station WRUC in October of 1920. Today, there are over 600 college radio stations!
