Naughty or nice?

OKC details list for recycling The December holiday season marks a time for parties, poinsettias and presents under the tree.

Instead of tossing it all in an Oklahoma City’s Big Blue trash cart, try recycling instead.

Here’s a list from the City of Oklahoma City that shows what’s naughty and what’s nice for our recycling stream.

Naughty: These items are not accepted in the city’s recycling program. Instead, toss them in your Big Blue trash cart, or compost them, if appropriate.

Hammerstein's Carousel (July 5-10) and Kinky Boots (July 19-24). Season add-ons include cult-classic The Rocky Horror Show (Oct.5-30) and Lyric's 12th annual production of A Christmas Carol (Nov. 16 -Dec. 23).

•Wrapping paper, crepe paper and gift bags; Christmas lights, tinsel, ribbons, and bows. These “tanglers” get caught in equipment and delay production. Toss them in your Big Blue, or re-use ribbons and bows another year.

•Plastic bags and wrap, including bubble wrap, cling wrap and shipping packaging.

•Paper plates, cups, and napkins.

•Plastic cutlery.

•Shipping peanuts and protective foam.

"I'm very thankful to all of our state leaders, loyal patrons and everyone at Lyric for making this past year's outdoor season a safe and joyous success,” said See LYRIC, Page 5

The Christmas Gospel In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world.

(This was the first census that

took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.)

And everyone went to his own town to register.

So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth

in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David.

He went there to register with Mary,

who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child.

While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.

An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.

But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.

Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.

This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”

Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests.”

When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”

So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger.

When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.

But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.

The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.

But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.”

Currently, Heritage Hall has 46 competitors making up 14 teams that compete in a range of video games from Valorant to Chess. Following three months of competition, the teams compiled a winning record and notched a top 15 nationally ranked team (CS:GO Blue led by captain Ethan Steelman).

Will Porter advanced to the FIFA 21 regional playoffs. Green ended the season ranking an impressive 14th in the nation.

Participation in Heritage Hall’s eSports program is a competitive academic activity. “eSports helps students develop skills in video game design, computer science/engineering,

and other STEM-related areas. eSports opens up lucrative scholarship opportunities for students,” explained program director Ami Steelman.

According to eSports student president Sam Hall, “Since the beginning of August, players have been practicing and competing hard and spending extra hours building and updating the eSports room [aka gamer cave].

It’s been a lot of work, but it’s paying off.”

Brian Blaik is the Valorant Blue team captain.

“Win or lose, the sense of team belonging, eagerness to improve, and enthusiasm for the game is

enough to keep me involved with the program,” he said.

It looks to be an exciting spring season ahead, Steelman said.

“It’s not about winning; eSports provides another pathway for our students to showcase their talents to the community and prepare for college and innovative careers. We couldn’t be more excited to provide this new opportunity made possible by generous parent donations and the School’s Annual Fund.”

est Side Story – From the opening shot, I knew this was going to be my favorite movie of the year. Steven Spielberg is at his absolute best directing this remake of Jerome Robbins’ classic American musical.

Based on a new script from Pulitzer Prize winner Tony Kushner, the film amplifies what works best in the original stage musical and movie, while updating the characters to be more culturally appropriate and honest. Forget about the tepid box office and see this movie on the big screen. It’s fabulous.

King Richard – Will Smith is fantastic as the father of Venus Williams and Serena Williams in this dramatic, but uplifting story of an uncompromising father who will do whatever it takes to help his daughters dominate the world of professional tennis.

Belfast – Kenneth Branagh’s semi-autobiographical tale of a boy coming of age in Belfast just as the Troubles begin is both a beautifully made tribute to his home town and a dark reminder of the religious intolerance and violence that tore the country apart for decades. Eleven-yearold Jude Hill is captivating as the lead and surrounded by wonderful supporting performances.

Summer of Soul This glorious music documentary tells the story of the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival, a music festival that took place the same summer as Woodstock, but was nothing more than a footnote in history until the footage was recently rediscovered.

Performances by legends including Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, and Sly and the Family Stone are woven together with just enough narrative to explore the cultural impact of the festival at the time and the reasons why it was ignored by mainstream audiences until now.

The Power of the Dog – New Zealand’s Jane Campion, the Oscar winning writer/director of The Piano, returns with this stark but mesmerizing Western starring Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, and her real-life husband Jesse Plemons, who is also the lead in the Oklahoma made Killers of the Flower Moon.

hero deluge dominating the theatrical box office because of its dazzling fight sequences, fast-paced storytelling, wonderful sense of humor, and great cast. Comedian Awkwafina is dynamite as the unlikely sidekick.

Passing - Actress Rebecca Hall’s debut as writer/director is a slow burn about black women passing as a white women that builds into a thrilling melodrama thanks to outstanding performances by Tessa Thompson and Ruth Negga.

Dune – Denis Villeneuve, the Oscar nominated director of Arrival, breathes new life into this Science Fiction classic, creating the most awesome looking film of the year. Timothee Chalamet is the perfect lead actor for this epic saga.

Spencer – This psychological portrait of Princess Diana starring Kristen Stewart is a fascinating but disturbing look at what it is possibly like to be the most famous woman on Earth surrounded by a family that views you only with contempt.

Cruella – This live action prequel about Cruella de Vil stars Oscar winners Emma Stone and Emma Thompson in the most gorgeously designed and thoroughly entertaining Disney movie of the year.

MEMBER OF We urge courtesy in disagreement. We view with favor wise public choices and view with alarm flawed public choices. We give good advice to public officials at federal, state and local levels, and society in general, on what to do right. So, if they don’t take our advice, it’s not our fault.

EMAIL YOUR OPINION to: vicki@okcfriday.com

Our annual Christmas prayer T

HANK YOU, GOD, for the many blessings you have bestowed on us here in America, Oklahoma and Greater Oklahoma City.

Not the least of which is your forgiving love when we tend to forget our blessings by overshadowing them with our complaints and displeasures with our worldly status.

We beg your everlasting forgiveness for failure to realize how much better off we are than others elsewhere.

Sometimes we seem to be searching for something bad to think about our own situation and the demeanor of others.

Help us, God, to direct our thoughts, actions and attitudes toward the many good things -- blessings -- that do come our way.

Family. How about that one? It ought to be way up at the top in cataloging our wonder-

ful blessings. We always know we can count on them to be there when needed, almost, even if not reaching the magnitude of Your ever-presence for our need, many times when we don’t realize it ourselves.

We pledge anew, God, to quit taking You for granted, because we can not escape the fact that You are always there!

Thank You again for that great blessing.

We take this occasion to admit our many shortcomings in life and our relationships with others and with You. Help us to elevate in our lives such attributes as kindness, tolerance, understanding, gratitude, helpfulness, good manners, patience, integrity and industry.

And above all, LOVE. Help us be more charitable to the underprivileged in thought and deed.

We know we can not attain perfection, God, but we could strive to be and do better.

Above all, we thank You for the many blessings You have bestowed on us. And we beg Your forgiveness for our forgetting and overlooking them so many times.

We beg forgiveness, specifically, for our own judgments and actions, messing up on the greatest gift of all the blessings You bestow upon us.

That is the gift of free will, with the option to do the right, or the wrong, thing and face the consequences of our choices. This delega-

tion of choices You have given us is what makes us --humans--above all other life forms. Even in our mistakes, though, we know You are ever present to help and comfort us.

As You know, God, our small planet is having tougher than usual times this past year.

Our problems, we must confess to you, are primarily the result of human thoughts and deeds.

Your Holy Book tells us to oppose the forces of evil. We beg your help for those who have given their earthly life in that cause.

And solace for those they leave behind.

Help us lead the way toward ending our traits that cause so many pains.

Give encouragement to those who would seek to end such destructive attitudes as hate, anger, vengeance, ingratitude, oppression and violence.

Help them to instill in our human hearts, instead, love, understanding, acceptance, gratitude, encouragement and kindness.

Inspire the leaders of our principalities and powers to seek wisdom and dispense fairness while avoiding temptation and corruption.

Please be with those who suffer from pain, despair, and lack of sustenance and safety.

We will never lose our faith that You are always there.

May we do better in the coming year.
