Awesome skirt for the price
This skirt is a great buy for the price. Fits great at the waist but a little tighter on my thighs. I am 5'4" 123lbs and wear a 2 but it fits snug. Overall very satisfied!
January 8, 2013
Cute Skirt!
Love this skirt, it fits well and the fabric is soft and supple.
December 19, 2012
Love it!!!
I got this skirt online and was very satisfied with this product, the fit is true to size and I have received a lot of compliments.
December 19, 2012
very cute skirt!
I purchased this skirt for my daughter. Adorable skirt and the blue is very striking. Fits true to size and is lined. However, the material is very flimsy and would probably snag or pill easily. Purchased it on sale though at a great price so will keep it.
December 18, 2012
This skirt is beatiful!
The size runs a little big, so if you are a petite, the zero may be too big, but other than that, its a standout skirt!
December 18, 2012
classy, cute skirt
I remember trying this on in the store and the sizes for the skirts seem a little smaller than other stores, but the skirt is still really cute and feels really nice. I ended up buying it online once it went on sale and it was definitely worth it. I really like the blue color used in the skirt because it pops out and goes great with sheer or opaque tights.
December 17, 2012
Love the fabric
I love this skirt because of the silky fabric. I am short, but the skirt still gave me the mini-skirt look. I purchased the Brown and Yellow, loved the colors but the brown was harder to match then anticipated. overall just love the item!
December 13, 2012
I loved the skirt from the second I saw it online. I went into the store to buy it but unfortunately they didn't have my size. I was disappointed because I wanted to make sure it fit but I ended up buying it online anyway. I'm so glad I did. Im usually between an 8 or 10 with limited skirts but after reading some of the reviews some people suggesting getting a size up so the skirt can sit lower on the hip and not be as short. So I got a 10 and Im so glad I did because now its not too short and I can wear it to the office. Its so soft and comfy too! I love it and I think it will be something that I will have for a long time!

WTFPL doesn't do what you might think, because in most EU countries copyrights are not transferable. So removing copyright notice is not allowed.
Unlicense or CC0 are better, but still isn't public domain.
Releasing code to public domain everywhere is actually impossible.
No. Quick, correct yourself.
Ok, I correct it for you.
It is to restrict the right to distribute the binary with mixed code of any GPL and CDDL.
Specifically because CDDL allows static link for no reason and GPL prohibits it.
CDDL does not prevent code being GPLed. CDDL is simply designed by brain-damaged Sun elitists, that failed to adapt and contribute to ecosystem and opposed the community.
So as a post-mortem "present", they left a CDDL'ed ZFS.
Which is shame, because I really loved Solaris.
Funny enough Oracle changed nothing about it, thus damaging its reputation as FLOSS supporter. CDDL did not prevent use of ZFS on GPLed systems.
Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Permissive licenses include copyleft and public domain; and contrast to prohibitive licenses such as EULA.
Permissive licenses grant the user rights, while prohibitive licenses reserve, limit or take the rights away.
One of the conditions to make sure the user really gets the advertized rights is to prohibit taking rights away, which is single restricted right in GPL.
Anyone who bullshits GPL essentially bullshits right to protect freedom.

BSD code can't be GPL'ed either. It can be mixed with GPL code while retaining its original BSD license, in the same way that it can be mixed with proprietary code while retaining its original license.
You can't relicense BSD code any more than you can relicense GPL code (ie you need approval from the copyright holders).
Wrong, BSD licensed code can be re-licensed, and the copyright removed. It justs goes to show you how dumb BSD fuckers are. The thing is that what GPL people do it, they start crying, screaming like children (e.g. Theo de Raadt) while they just actively support proprietary companies when they take BSD code.
Might as well remove thier pants and bentover next to a sign saying "rape here for free"
BSD fuckers always say that Linux is a copy of UNIX or that it's a plagerism of UNIX while thier OS is the real thing.
There's nothing further from the truth. Linux was written from scratch and it has code very different from unix but causes it to act like unix. BSD is a copy of unix, no innovation or whatsoever just blatent copying of code.
BSD deserved that lawsuit. I just wished it had completely distroyed BSD. Ban them completely from touching the code.
So why is the GNU website only calling the non-copyleft open source licenses permissive licenses, but not the copyleft licenses? http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html
Why does the GNU website differentiate between copyleft and permissive non-copyleft free software licenses, if all free software licenses are permissive?http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/why-copyleft.htmlIn the GNU Project we usually recommend people use copyleft licenses like GNU GPL, rather than permissive non-copyleft free software licenses.
Why can't we find one place on the whole site that the GPL is a permissive license?
Why does the Copyfree organization states that the Wikipedia definition is thehttp://copyfree.org/permissive/closest thing to a clear definition of the term "permissive license"
Why do you think that ? All of the BSD license variants start with the following :
Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without
modification, are permitted provided that the following conditions are met:

If you did a Venn diagram of Minecraft fans and Bieber fans, I've no idea what that would look like, but each one via the internet has been born into a seemingly over night success, even though it likely took a huge effort over a very long time. Being like that can help put you in the spotlight. Notch and Minecraft deserve every success they have." – Cliff Bleszinski on Minecraft creator Markus 'Notch' Persson to Develop.

KIRKSVILLE, MO. -- Five members of the Kirksville community are running for two open seats on the Kirksville City Council.
Each council member fills a three year position, after being voted into office by the city voters in an annual April election.
KTVO spoke with Mayor Richard Detweiler who is running for re-election.
He said some of the projects he is proud of are the $2.2 million storm water bonds and the Franklin Street Project.
Detweiler said around the city they were able to repair around a half a dozen places that had flooding.
"I try to be a very good steward of the public's money," Detweiler said. "I understand every body (works) very hard for their money. No one likes paying taxes. And, I think it's on our backs to at the very least be very good stewards of the public's money. And, I take that very seriously. I really enjoy ... looking for those opportunities to help people."
The City Council "appoints" a mayor in April, following the election, for a one-year term.
We also spoke with Richard Green who said he is running for city council because he was trying to start his own business and he had some difficulty doing that.
"What prompted me to run for city council is trying to start my own business and it seems like it was hard for a new business to start up in Kirksville because of different ordinances that they have," Green said.
A hard surface parking lot was a big issue for him in starting his business.
"I have a spot for about two or three hard surface parking spots," Green said. "If they would have given me a temporary license until I could construct the parking lot that would have been great. They didn't flat out say no, they just said that I needed that to be able to start the business."
Green said the process of starting a business needs to be easier.
"We need more small business in this town, and (there are) not enough of them," Green said. "A bicycle repair shop is what I'm trying to do, and there's no competition for me at all, and there hasn't been for more than ten years in this town. I just think they should make it easier for a business like this to get started in Kirksville."

- " I don't know who's lying, you or the place I was at (the classic courtyard).They offer NOTHING on what the internet says,I have a special diet,I'm sick and I can't eat everything,but the kitchen is for them to use,not for us,the guests,and for the washing mashing they charge 50 yuan. The room was very noisy I couldn't sleep that night,very smelly extremely humid,like I was on the top of the chimney of a restaurant.All they have is a bed and bath,WIFI.The rest,LIES.RUINED MY VACAY. "

- " A couple of good things - The Internet connection was basically good and the check-in staff were wonderful. On the down side, one of the rooms smelled really badly - probably sewer from the bathroom and the one heater was in the ceiling and did take quite a while to heat the room. It was fairly cold when we were there. I found it to be decent value for the money and for what we were looking for. We only needed a room to sleep in as we were out running the roads every day. "
- 17 Feb 2013 Diane Canada
- " The place is accessible and clean, the service is good and it is safe to leave your baggage with them......staff should improve their English communication skills to have a better understanding with your future guests...If i will visit Beijing the next time, I will prefer to stay again in the Classic Courtyard :) "

"review of Horizon Pyramids Hotel on October-2013"
Hotel is close to the site seen of the Pyramids. The only challenge was faced is that its fare way from Nile river and to the attraction area on the city center. Transportation is overcrowded on the site and could take at least an 1-2 for short distance. Area surrounding is safe.Ósvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
it was stunning and beautiful. I could see the pyramids from there. I miss it alot and i love egypt and the people. I come there again in the future. thank you all and all the staff at the horizon pyrmaid hotel. it was very beautiful. i will never forget it forever. thank you.Ósvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
Stayed there from 7/27/2013-8/2/2013. Plane arrived in the a.m.(1:30 a.m.) on 7/27/2013 and could not check in under the original reservation. Had to pay an additional amount for 7/26/2013 in order to check in and next day was placed in the proper room.Ósvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

Room was ok and room cleaning service was fine. AC runs at full blast and then went off for a day, fixed after couple of calls. Breakfast buffet had same items with no change for 6 days we stayed.

"Great hotel and EXCELLENT tour company"
I stayed at this hotel for 7 nights on my first trip to Egypt. The hotel was very nice. Staff was excellent and went out of their way to help and to ensure I enjoyed my stay. The restaurant was good, the food was delicious. The wait staff was great, as well. Room service was good and brought my food abruptly after ordering. But it is the tour company, […] Golden Pyramids, that really made my trip stand out. They are EXCELLENT! I cannot say enough good things about them. Ahmed and Mohammad went above and beyond and out of their way to make sure I was happy with my tours and safe, as I was a single female traveler alone. They are so courteous and professional. Abdul, my driver was wonderful, as well. He was at the airport to pick me up and always on time. These are the people that made my first trip to Egypt a wonderful one! I will definately return and stay at this hotel again. I highly recommend this hotel and this tour company to anyone travelling to Egypt! Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

"The perfect place to stay in Giza"
My husband and I were very pleased with Horizon Pyramids Hotel. We stumbled upon this diamond in the rough after 4 horrific days at the hostel Royal in Cairo (see trio advisor for that review & picture). When the taxi pulled up to the Horizon Pyramids Hotel we were very pleased with the outside appearance; once we entered the hotel we were greeted by […] the front doors man who directed us to the reception area. We booked online & requested early check in. We were then directed to an sitting area to wait for our room which they said would be ready in 15 mins while waiting for our room a gentleman came with two wine glasses of punch. Before I could finish my punch the bell man informed us our room was ready. The room was small however it was enough for my husband & I. Our room had an balcony with the pyramid view. We ordered room service; not only were they speedy it was also delicious. I found the bathroom quite relaxing after a day of exploring. The deep tub & hot water was very relaxing. My husband and I highly recommend The Horizon Pyramids Hotel in Giza Egypt. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gests á Hotels.com
"disgusting, filthy and not suitable for Westeners"
We went to Cairo to study Arabic and hence were not so concerned in staying at a fancy or luxury / delux etc hotel. A clean room would've sufficed. However, We were given (most likely) the cheapest room available. It was small, dark and the window let in the cold and the noise from the streets. Despite all this we would've have been quite content as […] long as the room was clean, particularly the bathroom. But th utter filth and neglect was from a horror film. The bath had grime all over it and the floor had never been hovered. When we requested housekeeping to clean the room their woefully inept attempt at convincing us that this had been accomplished was to leave behind a towel origami design. We called housekeeping again and had to supervise the cleanup. It was disgusting to see that the toilet brush used for the toilet was also used to clean the bath tub. And they give the housekeeping staff a small bottle of detergent which is used sparingly. Also the breakfast is awful. Unfortunately there's only McDonald's for any sort of decent coffee. Do not visit the pastry store next door as the coffee is hideous and overpriced if your a foreigner. Also do NOT use the taxi services based in the hotel. It's a ridiculously expensive ripoffn use white cabs and ensure they put on their meter. Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

"2 star hotel"
The hotel staff is very incompetent and unprofessional. The air conditioning doesn't work in the rooms and is controlled by the floor, not personal room setting. When arrived to check in, the reception had to ring the bellhop 5 times to just come and pick up the luggage and when he finally came down, he walked passed us and went to gossip/chit chat […] with other staff members. The only hard working staff members were the housekeeping and the managers, after having to correct several of the hotel's staff mistakes. As for room service, they brought down the food 2 hours later, after having called them to ask where it was at. The staff is not well versed in either Spanish or English language. We were not the only ones with complaints, while staying at this hotel. I saw three other couples with complaints about noise, water in shower going hot and cold-not consistent or water pressure problems, and problems with security. Note to Hotel: Your staff reflects your business...managers may be good and speak several languages, but if your staff is lazy, incompetent and can't communicate with its guests, people will not want to return and stay at your hotel.

I was expecting a better quality of a hotel. It is in the middle of chaos. The room that I booked as well as the halls smelled like smoke.

"Standard hotel....great private car service!"
The hotel was clean, good size bedroom, small bathroom though, and close proximity to the pyramids(as we could see the pyramids in the distance from our balcony when the pollution and smog permitted). The breakfast and dinner buffet offered a vast selection, and was included in the room rate. However, the most spectacular feature of the hotel is the […] car service located in the lobby area. They helped us plan our entire visit with a private guide/driver for a really reasonable price. You need only to tell them what you want to see and accomplish while you there, and they will personalize an itinerary from beginning to end, completely worry free! Initially, we were concerned about having a guide/driver who spoke English well enough to understand. That fear was completely dispelled when we met our guide/driver Farid. We can't say enough positive things about Farid. He is absolutely AMAZING! Egyptian born, with great communicative English. He was professional with a genuine interest in our safety and making our first visit to Egypt a lasting memory. Farid was probably by far the best reason to book at this hotel! For him it wasn't just about receiving a tip(as it is for many Egyptians in the business of tourism), surprisingly he declined daily tips and kindly requested we waited to the end of our 4 days with him to determine if we thought his service was tip worthy! Unheard of in Cairo, where everyone is after you for money! If you visit Cairo, Farid is a must hire driver!!! Lesa meiraÓsvikin umsögn gesta á Expedia

This hotel is nice and well equipped, with all of the conveniences i could have hoped for. To say it is 4-stars, I feel, is pushing it. However, it is at least 3.5-stars, and perfectly nice. My room was clean and my shower was hot, what more could I really hope for? The breakfast buffet is adequate - not the best I've ever had, but better than many […] I've had for this price. The house-keeping staff is good - didn't clean as spotless as other hotels, but adequate, again, for the price. The hotel staff is VERY friendly, and I was very happy here. One note - this hotel is on one of the busiest, noisiest streets in Cairo. It didn't bother me in the least. I've spent a lot of time in Cairo, and know that the city in general is noisy and crowded.

4km from pyramids, we were on 6th floor with a view of pyramids which was an unexpected surprise. Food was good but not great in comparison to the food we'd had on our nile cruise.

People have been fighting over Lake Champlain as long as there have been personal flotation devices. The waterway's strategic value is evidenced by the dozens of shipwrecks on the bottom. The Lake Champlain Maritime Museum has been discovering, researching and protecting those rusty relics, and the result is the Lake Champlain Underwater Historic Preserve, a gallery of sunken ships accessible to divers. But there's plenty to look at on land, too. The dry museum chronicles the maritime history of the area through exhibits, boat-building demonstrations, lectures and festivals.
A happy obsession is in evidence at the Birds of Vermont Museum — home to hundreds of life-sized wooden birds expertly carved by Bob Spear. The loon family alone took him 850 hours to carve and paint. Spear founded Vermont's first chapter of the National Audubon Society in 1962, and is still carving birds today. Photo: Matthew Thorsen
The original Vermonters — Native American Abenaki — have a voice at the Vermont Folklife Center. So do the Vermont descendents of slaves. With an archive that consists of more than 3900 tapes, the organization aims to document and conserve the state's cultural heritage, including groups making history today. A recent photo exhibit captured the lives of Mexican dairy farm workers in Addison County.
Best known for its connection with the Underground Railroad, the Rokeby Museum preserves the history of four generations of remarkable Robinsons. Ahead of its time in every way, the family was made up of Quakers, abolitionists and artists. They were also successful farmers. Patriarch Thomas R. Robinson was among the first agriculturalists to import Merino sheep to the U.S. If he were around today, the old man might be raising something equally radical, like llamas. Two of them live across the road from the Rokeby, along with a camel.
The Sheldon Museum, on Middlebury's town green, serves as both a municipal archive and showcase of 19th-century small-town Vermont life.

darby:but that's certainly NOT what it was in the school system where I worked.
Not MESSA. We changed years ago. But even back when we did, they did not charge the same for single, couple or family plan.
Want to hear a good one? The city where I live is going to raise property taxes to fund their retiree healthcare. And their retirees do not contribute one red cent. Why aren't ALL government employees/retirees targeted instead of just school systems?
Incase any of you don't realize this, Senate bill 1040 lowers the CAP that the system CAN subsidize of our retiree health care premium to 80% from 90%. However, there isn't and never was any minimum. The retirement booklet states under insurance coverage: "Benefit levels, premium cost, and subsidy, if any, are determined by the Retirement System Board and the State of Michigan." I interpret that to mean they do not have to cover any of the premium at all. The rate they are currently subsidizing....for my single policy anyway....works out to be almost exactly 85%.
I am NOT a teacher. Every school employee is NOT a teacher!!! And that is exactly what I said........they do not HAVE to pay anything toward insurance....but they currently do....85%. But as a taxpayer myself too.....I AM REQUIRED to pay for our City retiree's health care - 100% of it too, and many other government employees....beginnning with congressmen! And the policies are much better than mine too.
darby:Why aren't ALL government employees/retirees targeted instead of just school systems?
The problem with this bill is that it doesn't go far enough. The state is headed right for a fiscal cliff. If we don't fix the problem now... the worse it will be.
The untold story here is that it is previous legislatures and administrations, of both parties, that have created this problem of insufficient funding. Going back to the introduction of the MIP plan in 1986 and the ongoing tinkering ever since, most often in an effort to buy some votes, we are now faced with the deficit. I don't recall ever getting to vote on what my pension was going to be or what kind of health insurance or other benefits I might have in retirement. Those details were put in place by governors, unelected bureaucrats and legislators. The pension system gets more obtuse and complex (something that government seems to be good at doing with any set of rules). Now, because of the mistakes of the past, current school employees and retirees are being told they have to bear the full financial burden to right the ship.
If this bill passes as is, good luck finding any one with any qualifications to come into public education.
Something must be wrong with this bill!!!
My district was offering retirement workshops through our local. All sessions filled within hours...they have now combined all workshops into one but changed venues to a high school auditorium. If all of our experienced education employees retire, where will this leave our students?
Since you are pointing out typos, is "whooping" the same as "whopping?" Oh, wait, you used that twice, so I think it must be a misspelling...
Youdo not pay 20% of your salary towards health insurance. It is 20% of the insurance premium. While that is still a new burden on school employee's there is a difference in the information you shared. If you think teaching is a thankless job, try being in a non teaching position in the schools. School definitely cater to the teachers. I speak from 22 years of being employed in public schools in a non teaching position.
Here's how overpaid teachers are...
Earn and purchase college major. Earn and purchase a college minor. Earn and purchase the remainder of a Bachelor's Degree.
Earn and purchase a Teaching Degree. PURCHASE a full-year unpaid internship. Purchase a Provisional Teaching Certificate.
Find a teaching job paying, on average, $35,000.
Purchase 12 graduate level college credits. Teach for five years. Purchase a Teaching Certificate.
Hit your professional earning ceiling, based on teacher salary steps, at 35 years of age.
Purchase continuing education credits each year to retain a Teaching Certificate. Repurchase Teaching Certificate every five years.
Earn nothing for successes above and beyond. Earn nothing for overtime. Earn nothing for three months of summer.
Purchase mandatory professional development. Purchase classroom supplies.
Earn respect.
Get none.
There are two reasons our citizens pursue teaching despite massive education requirements and low pay: insurance and retirement. These two tools are teachers' deferred salaries. A state budget could not afford to pay appropriate yearly salaries absent insurance and retirement benefits. Managing 40 young citizens in a room for 6 hours a day and hundreds of prep hours costs money. These are professionals. They've earned their way there just like your lawyer did, like your doctor did, and like your accountant did. Their only fault is placing their livelihood in the hands of public officials and people whose brash, semi-informed judgements they themselves would not be willing to face in their own professional lives - people who hide behind keyboards and find comfort in anonymous blog bashing. These people are not solvers of problems. They are typers of words, and those words provide no benefit to the citizenry.
Public sector benefits have to be brought in line with the private sector. The taxpayers can't afford these promises made by charlatans. It is unsustainable and the state is headed for financial ruin if reforms aren't made now. The sad fact is... SB 1040 doesn't go far enough.
The best thing that could happen is all these constantly whining public school teachers would resign. Then we could start over and privatize the schools. The taxpayers would get a tremendous break and the children would finally get the education they so desperately need.
Three month vacation? Really? You obviously are not aware of what really goes on in teaching. Teachers, and I mean real teachers, are not done in the summer. Real teachers are preparing for the comming school year. I can say that I spend many hours preparing for the next school year during the summer "vacation." However, if you want to play that game, and say we simply work nine months of the year, OK, how about this......
- Teachers that I know, those who care and take pride in their work, do not "punch-out" when the bell rings to end the day. I can tell you that I spend 4-5 hours each night working on school work.....grading papers, reviewing lessons, preparing lessons, not to mention the various school activities that I attend. Oh, and I don't get extra pay for them.
- If you think teaching is simply babysitting, well, pay me babysitter wages. Heck, I'll take $8 per child, since I see them each 55 mins M-F. Let's do the math.....I see 190 student each day, so that's $1,520 a day.That's $7,600 each week, and roughly $30,400 per week (months with four weeks).So, only pay me for when I work.....OK.....we'll count it as 32 weeks......that's $972,800 a year. I would be more than willing to pay my full health insurance, and my full retirement on this salary! - Anyway, if you want to know what it's like, standing in front of 190 high school students each day, trying to inspire them, I welcome you to try it.
That'll work.....do you know what quality of TEACHERS you get at private schools? It may surprise you, but many of these private school teachers are not as effective as their counterpart public school teachers. Remember, don't lump all public schools into the same basket as those that make the headlines.
Teachers do get 3 months off, that is one of the benefits of the job. I realize during the school year there may be extra time spent preparing lessons plans, etc....especially in the first few years of the job. After that there are tweaks to old lesson plans used. Most people these days that are college educated with professional careers have to do "homework" as well but we do not get the benefit of more than 3-4 weeks off per year. If I could get 3 months plus off I would gladly let my employer tell me what weeks I can take.
Most private sector employees don't have pensions at all. I would be thrilled to contribute to my own pension every year that is mostly funded by my employer. As it is, my employer puts in 3% to my 401-k ( which is very typical) and I fund the rest.
Most posts from educators make it sound like:
1). Only the elite and most bright people can be good educators. Simply not true. I know many and they are no different in intelligence than many of my co-workers from the private sector. no matter how many degrees they have.
2). No one will want to be an educator now because of the changes. I think there will be plenty and they will be people that truly want to be educators for the right reasons.
Bottom line is, if you feel under appreciated and feel you are under paid you can always do what everyone in the private sector does.....go find another job.
At $1,520/day it would be $30,400/month. However, there are only 9 months that you work for a total of $273,600. There are not 32 months in a year. Baby sitters can only watch a certain number of children a day....besides we are trying to get rid of the teachers that look at it like a baby sitting position.
Saying that teachers simply "tweak" lesson plans here and there shows you are not in education. I do agree that there are many teachers who simply ride easy street, and do not do a lot of preparing for future lessons, these too are the ones that we (I'm speaking of many teachers) want out of education. I have taught for over ten years, and I can tell you that I do not simply "tweak" lessons. I can speak from my own experience, and from those true teachers out there.....many of us are spending much out of school time "tweaking" lesson plans (I cannot begin to count the hours/days I have spent, given up with my family, because I am working all day Saturday and Sunday "tweaking" lesson plans, or grading papers). I think we can both agree that there are numerous people, in numerous lines of work that don't do a whole lot.....teaching/education is no different.
True, may private sector employees do not have pensions at all. Pensions are going the way of the dinosaur. However, I know in my family, many who work(ed) for the auto companies, do have a pension. So, I do know that many people in the private sector do have a pension....but these "perks" are for sure going away. I can live with that, honestly I can. However, what gets me is when you're promised something, and it's taken away (again, I understand that this happens all the time in the private sector....doesn't mean that I have to like it).
My pension is NOT funded mostly by my employer. That line, that educators do not fund their pension, is simply not true.
To counter your posts on what educators say....
1. True, many teachers are no more intelligent than many of those from the private sector. However, to be an effective teacher it does take brains....and also the abillity to entertain. Again, I think we can both agree that there are MANY people in the private sector who are not very intelligent....so to lump all educators in one basket is unfair.
2. I decided to be an educator because I get an intrinsic reward for doing this job. I didn't become a teacher to get rich....far from it. I knew that would not happen, and I'm OK with that. Personally, I would rather enjoy my job than go to a job each day that I hate (such as my wife does.....she's not happy when Sunday night comes!).
I do love the line "go find another job." Well, I can throw that back at you.....if you think teaching is so easy, and we don't really work for our money, become a teacher and see what it is like. It works both ways.
On a side note, there are many things that those not in education simply to not know (I have to continue to pay for college classes simply to keep my job....no, districts do NOT reimburse these classes, they used to, but that has gone away LONG ago, which it should have). Again, stand in front of 190 students each day, many of whom have little to no respect for anyone other than their friends and see what it's like when you are trying to prepare them for a test (which is used to determine if I'm an effective teacher or not). I don't get to pick what kids I have in my class, or in our school, I am supposed to educate "all" students regardless....oh, and make sure they pass a test. It would be like saying that all doctors (which by the way, I have taken the same number of years in college/grad school as a doctor) should be judged on how "fit" their patients are, and if a patient does not follow their "orders" or "suggestions," well, they are deemed an ineffective doctor. Just something to think about.
And you see that I am clearly not a math teacher. :)
OK, still $273k is still 225k more than I make a year.....include my pension and healthcare (which we get those "numbers" from our district each year), and it's still 160k more than I make a year.
I totally agree, we should get rid of teachers who simply look like they're babysitting....they do nothing to help educate kids.
Welcome to the private sector. We have to prove ourselves over and over and usually there's no pension.
C'mon, you do not write new lessons plans every year...when i say "tweak" that is what i am refering to. I am not saying that teachers do not work hard....simply that it isn't that bad of a job. The pay is decent, the time off is good, there is a pension and benefits are good. Plus, did I read health insurance after retirement? Do you honestly think that you would not do it again because the benefits aren't as good? I think most would. This is the life and profession you chose, you can also change it any time you want to, especially with years of education and the degrees you have.
I know it sucks to get a pension taken away, it happened to me too ( in the private sector). I was supposed to get several hundred thousand dollars in a pension when I retired on top of 401-k, etc....guess what, poof...gone...altogether....now just 401-k. It did suck for a couple weeks but I got over it and realized my retirement is in my hands and I will enjoy it to the extent that I save now.
Can you share how much you contribute to your pension and how much you receive a year at retirement? I have read 5% put in and $20,000/year at retirement but I'm not sure how much that varies or if it's true. That seems like an okay deal. If you make $50,000/year and contribute 5% that would be $2,500/year. Common practice is you pull 4% out of retirement a year, which means to pull $20,000 your nest egg would have to be $500,000. This means you would contribute about half to your pension assuming the 5% and $20,000 are correct. Plus, all financial advisors recommend 10-15% a year in retirement so you should be saving more than just the 5% anyway.
Also, do you get to retire after 30 years? Is that when you can start drawing your pension? That also is a good deal if you can tap that money before 59 1/2, unlike 401-k plan and also get health insurance after retirement.
Basically, the private sector gets upset about the complaining from teachers because even their reduced benefits are better than many/most private sector jobs. Again, I know it stinks to have a benefit and have it reduced and I don't blame people for being upset. Just saying it happens every where and even the reduced benefits are pretty good. I personally would not like to be a teacher, don't want to deal with crazy parents......Likewise, there are many things in my job that many would not like to do. It's the same everywhere......
Just be lucky you are in MI. Here in Ohio the 129TH General Assembly is revising the 5 public pension plans for THE SECOND TIME since 2005. The contributions for the teachers, other school employees & us public employees went from 8.5% to 10%!!! Now as revisions to H B 69 & S B 3, the number of years to retire at ANY AGE will be increased to 32 years from 30 years. Also, due to the FAILURE of the Teachers {STRS} pension plan [not meeting the 30 year funding on an actural basis] the teachers will see their contribution increase [it was from 10% to 12.5% over 5 years, unsure what the new S B says] and a REDUCTION OF THEIR PENSION BENEFITS!!!!!!.
Sorry, I was wrong to not have practiced what I preach and that is to check out the facts before I comment. What bothers me more, and it is exactly what is wrong with our country, is the fact that you are so quick to label people as being liars and smear merchants because we have different beliefs. I consider myself to be an Independent voter, meaning I vote for the person and what I feel best represents my beliefs. I am both a conservative and a liberal, it all depends on the issue at hand. Take the chip off your shoulder my friend.
What happened to the 3% pension/healthcare refund to public school employees? State employees received the refund but not public school employees, why is that?
You are right, I thought people were getting this confused. The bill is in regards to the percent we pay into pension/healthcare (which since this post they have found it illegal to charge us for retirees healthcare and have to rename it) and the 20% is on healthcare premiums employers pay for the employees.
I just recently inquired when public school employees will get the 3% refund we were paying into the pension/healthcare that was refunded to the state employees. Has anyone heard or read anything on this?
Why are people using this site for their own financial gain? Quit using this site to advertise!!
Too bad you couldn't have provided additional documentation, but that would not work, especially when they want to compare teachers to Burger flippers, too bad they do not understand that the human condition is what it is. I agree that something needs to be done, but making teachers a victim is akin to becoming a sister to facisism. This site has never reported the complete facts just like the other media outlets. They give you what they want you to know. They help to create mob mind. Some need to read Gustave Le Bon's book The Crowd.

If you visit Pinon Valley Park on Mule Deer Drive in northwest Colorado Springs and agree with me that it's looking good, tell the neighbors. They'll appreciate hearing that you admire their work.
If you like the way the basketball court is free of weeds. Or that the volleyball pit is nicely maintained. Or that the picnic tables and benches look great with their fresh paint. Tell the neighbors.
Maybe you used the portable toilet before running in the lush grass or tossed some trash in the can. Tell the neighbors.
They paid for the bags in the trash cans. They collect the bags and pay for the trash to be collected. They pay for the toilet. And they pay for the grass to get extra seed, fertilizer and water.
Here's a look at the area from GoogleEarth:
Several surrounding neighborhood groups have come together to preserve Pinon Valley Park until the city can resume its normal maintenance.
And the person credited for rallying everyone is Jeanette Givens, seen in a photo by Julie Hutton.
When Jeanette heard the news that trash cans were being removed from city parks due to budget cuts, she realized it would be a long, filthy summer at the busy little Pinon Valley Park, which sits on Mule Deer Drive at the base of Ute Valley Park.
She called together the Pinon Valley Neighborhood Association to brainstorm ideas for the park. The association is an umbrella group for small neighborhood groups including the Green Valley Ranch, Pinon Ranch, Pinon Glen.
The association called the Parks & Recreation Department and invited Kurt Schroeder to a meeting where he explained the dire financial situation. The neighborhood leaders decided drastic action was necessary and got busy.
They raised money - $8,500 to date – and awareness by circulating fliers recruiting volunteers and donations.
One group paid for trash bags and garbage pick-up. One paid for a portable toilet. Another for a large trash dumper. Money raised was used to pay for extra water, seed and fertilizer.
Their efforts climaxed Saturday when dozens of neighbors showed up for a clean-up day. Folks cut trees, painted picnic tables and benches, weeded, worked on the basketball courts and volleyball pit.
Here's some more photos snapped by neighbor Julie Hutton at the event:

Just picked up a new Dovetail Jig model 4212 and was wondering if I can put paste wax on the aluminum templates to help the router slide easier?
Capt Dave
Paste wax will not harm the aluminum and should do a nice job of improving the slickness of the template. Wax the bottom of your router too.
Avoid waxes with silicone as it can interfer with your finishing. Johnson's paste wax and some auto paste waxes are silcone free. Check the ingrediants or check the Material Safety Data sheet (MSDS) to verify the incredients.
Thank you for your response.
Dave, this is a great jig. Congrats!
According to me, according to performances, this is the second best jig on the market (Leigh being the first), and the first on the cost side. In two words, the best value.
I urge you to watch bonus videos on Porter-Cable website at (you may have to register, but it's worh it.:
Happy dovetails! And don't forget, practice makes perfect!
