International RV Shipping
Cargo Out Logistics offers numerous shipping options for the export of your RV or camping trailer. Our team of experts make sure our customers select the best shipment method customized to their individual needs depending on the size of the RV and final destination.
Our most popular shipping option is RoRo service. This option is the most popular mostly because it is the most efficient and most cost effective. The benefit of shipping your RV or camper by RoRo is also that we are able to ship it within most major Ports in the U.S. Our staff handle every step of the way from the transportation to the port, to the documentation and delivery to its final port of destination. This type of cargo in most cases requires special handling and trucks for over the road inland transport, permits, escort services, additional cargo insurance
Additional Options?
We mentioned various options for the shipping of RVs and campers. Besides the RoRo option, we also offer our customers the option to ship their RVs inside a container and also by air freight. Container shipping is a good option if the RV or camper does not exceed the size of the container. If you are not sure of the size of the container please click on the following link https://cargoout.com/index.php/ocean-container-dimensions/
Cargo Out Logistics also offers a third option for the shipping of RVs and campers. This third option is a flat-rack container. This option is more for bigger units but it has the disadvantage that it is not protected from the wind and sea water while in transit to its final destination.
Are you a distributor or seller of RVs and Camping Trailers?
Do you export RVs and camping trailers to all parts of the world? Do you sell RVs and camping
trailers to customers here in the U.S. who wish to export overseas? We invite you
to contact us today, as we have a commercial plan designed just for you, where you
can count on discounts and promotions for shipping high volumes.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact one of our service consultants.

Beauty Tutorial: CoverGirl Natural Summer Look
Have you ever been outside on a hot, summer day and your makeup feels as though it's falling off your face? Oh, me too. One of the most tried and true methods for keeping summertime makeup light is to either apply a tinted moisturizer or simply wear a thin based foundation with SPF. In this beauty tutorial, I am featuring CoverGirl's Simply Ageless Foundation with SPF along with a few other high and low end cosmetic items to complete a natural look that is perfect for a warm summer day.
This look would pair well with a light-toned summer dress or a bright maxi skirt and a loose fitting graphic t-shirt.

I currently run MilkyWay@home and head Participants in LAMOST, US (PLUS) . My current research is primarily related to understanding the structure of our own galaxy through using stars as tracers of the Galactic halo and the disk. In both cases I have been instrumental in elucidating their substructure. I hope that these studies will contribute to our understanding of how the Galaxy formed. In addition, the stellar substructure in both the halo and in the disk can be used to determine where dark matter is located in the Milky Way galaxy.
You can follow my research on facebook, twitter, instagram and YouTube. More information on past accomplishments can be found on Wikipedia
I was a participant in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, from 1992 to 2008. This survey imaged 10,000 square degrees of the north Galactic cap in five optical filters. Additionally, it obtained a million spectra of the galaxies (and hundreds of thousands of QSOs and stars) that were detected in the imaging survey.
I have worked in many areas of astronomy over the course of my career. I did my PhD with the Berkeley Automated Supernova Search, which measured the supernova rates as a function of supernova type in Virgo-distance galaxies; and the Supernova Cosmology Project, which is measuring the cosmological parameters Omega and Lambda using the light curves of distant supernovae. I have published papers in diverse areas of galactic and extragalactic astronomy, including: supernova phenomenology, measuring cosmological parameters from supernovae, galaxy photometry, color selection of QSOs, properties of stars, and the structure of our galaxy.Dept. of Physics, Applied Physics, and Astronomy

Trance metal band BLOOD STAIN CHILD have announced some big news.
First of all, both founding member RYO and the band's latest vocalist KiKi have departed. The band's website states that RYO has chosen to leave due to personal reasons that have made it difficult to continue activities, while KiKi has quit due to musical differences.
However, BLOOD STAIN CHILD have already welcomed two new members: vocalist SAIKA, who some may recognize from the short-lived visual kei band the:Ø, and bassist Yakky. This new line-up just announced its first release, a single titled NEXUS, which is scheduled to hit stores sometime this summer.
The video for the title track can be viewed below.

Gardening for Birds
Florida yards often attract a wide range of native birds. How you landscape and maintain your yard can make a difference for bird conservation and the environment. Plant trees and dense shrubs that can provide nesting areas and shelter when storms or predators threaten our winged friends.
You can provide food for birds by planting species with berries, seeds, and fruits and filling your bird feeders with high quality seed. Make sure your bird feeders protect the seed from rain, minimize spillage, and are easy to see from the air. And keep them at least fifteen feet away from vegetation to thwart cats and creative, determined squirrels.
If you can, always try to have a clean source of water for birds to drink and bathe in.

Fleet Feet Sports Training Programs CAN change your life... but don't take our word on it. Check out the stories of our participants:
I started training with Fleet Feet sports 4 years ago. At that time I could barely run a mile. One year later after completing the Half Marathon training program I finished my first 13,1 race in Savannah GA. Over the next 2 years I continued to increase my distances and fitness and took part in several more Half training programs in addition to a full training program in 2013 and 2015 — both culminating in finishing the Cuba Marathon and NYC Marathon twice. In March of 2015 I started in the Tri 101 program with Mike Huddleston and 3 months later finished my first triathlon at the 36 North event. I went on to complete several other events that year including my first Olympic distance tri, completing the year with the Beach to Battleship Half Ironman. The next year I set my sights on a full ironman and finished the Florida Ironman in November of 2016.
Fleet Feet changed my life in so many ways and triathlon has given me a family of friends and comrades to challenge me daily. This year I am taking on the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon, NYC Triathlon, the Louisville Full Ironman and finishing the year with the Otillo based SwimRunNC event at Hanging Rock.

Bob Hiivala, Auditor/Treasurer, requested that the Board authorize him to waive the Statutory Notice and Comment Period as described in MN Statute 469.175, Subd. 2, for Howard Lake TIF District #15. This has been reviewed by both Hiivala and Brian Asleson, Chief Deputy Attorney. Mattson moved to approve the request, seconded by Sawatzke, carried 5-0. Russek requested that Hiivala notify Howard Lake today of the action.
The claims listing was discussed. Mattson referenced an entry on page 20, Summit Envirosolutions Inc., $9,993.50, Phase I Archeological Study, total for Department 51, Roll-Over from Prior Years, of $9,993.50. Hiivala said Department 51 includes surplus rollover funds from the Capital Improvement Fund. It is a not a rollover from prior years. The claim to Summit Envirosolutions Inc. is for the Phase I Archeological Study for Stanley Eddy Park. On 9-11-07, the County Board authorized funding of $3,750 from the Parks Department Professional Services Line Item and $9,217 from Fund 34. On a motion by Mattson, second by Heeter, all voted to approve the claims as listed in the abstract, subject to audit.
Katie Zintek, U of M Extension Service, provided a 4-H Activity Update for the 2006-2007 year (ending 9-30-07). The goals of 4-H are citizenship, leadership and life skills. Although typically thought of as an agriculturally focused organization, 4-H today encourages members to learn about many topics such as youth leadership, youth-adult partnerships, public speaking, and community engagement. Enrollment has increased by 5% over the past year which is one of the State goals. There were 531 members at year end, which is the largest group in the St. Cloud Regional Center. Wright County 4-H involves quality leaders and quality programs. The leader trainings held since 2003-2004 have been well attended. They have almost 100% club participation with a fun atmosphere. Zintek was commended for her work as a 4-H Leader. Club numbers reflect 22 options in Wright County. There were 138 new members in 2003-2004 with 125 new members this past year (about 25% of the 4-H Program). Of the 125 new members, 87 were retained. Last year, a newsletter was developed and a new member fair day was held. Zintek explained that 4-H is a family orientated club and sometimes new members are lost as that was not what the family was looking for. With regard to animal projects, over 80 participants brought horses to the Fair. Participation is increasing with other animals as well, including dogs and llama. Zintek said they had excellent State Fair involvement with over 100 4-H members from Wright County, including a number of blue and purple ribbon projects. This speaks to the quality of projects sent. Members participated in the State Horse Show, the State Dog Show, and the State Shoot. There were twice as many involved with the State Shoot as last year. Wright County also has a very good Exchange Program. Youth from Wright County go to another State for a week and the next year youth from that State come to Wright County. It is a well funded and organized program. There are 180 volunteer leaders who are dedicated to the 4-H program. Youth are also involved in Project Bowls, with eight out of ten teams advancing to State last year. One team proceeded to National competition. A 500-Member Party was recently held as well as the Awards Banquet. Russek said it is great to see the 4-H Program growing, especially with the competition from other youth programs including sports. He extended thanks to Zintek for not only maintaining but increasing participation.
An Owner's Committee Meeting was held on 11-20-07. At today's County Board Meeting, Sawatzke moved to approve the minutes, seconded by Mattson, carried 5-0:
PROJECT UPDATE: A&P. Clark stated that Streich gave a project update at the 11-14-07 Owner's Committee Meeting and will attend the 11-27-07 Meeting for the regularly scheduled bi-weekly update. Clark stated that the gas is on site and a temporary meter will be ready for the heaters during winter construction. The footings and foundations are ongoing and A&P is working in coordination with the precaster. Sawatzke reminded the group that the 12-04-07 Owner's Committee Meeting is cancelled. Norman stated that the 11-27-07 Meeting is the normal scheduled meeting for both KKE's and A&P's Project Updates.
PAY APPLICATION #5. Sawatzke and Russek reviewed the seven pay applications totaling $675,440.02 and referred to the line items under column B, 'Description of Work" of A&P's Project Reimbursables pay application. Sawatzke asked if the Builders Risk Insurance has been paid 100%. Martin stated that she believed it was paid in full, but will confirm with the insurance company. Sawatzke inquired as to the balance left to pay under "Permits & Fees". Martin stated that there would be a permit fee for the State plumbing review for the kitchen equipment. Clark added that there would be some storm water fees, and fees for City inspections near project completion. Clark added that the building permit has not been paid in full. Martin confirmed that the building permit has only been billed according to bid packages #1 and #2. Sawatzke noted that there weren't any daily cleaning or snow removal fees as of yet. He further commented that dust control should not be a problem during the winter season. Sawatzke asked what remaining survey fees the County could expect. Martin stated that surveying would continue until near project completion in order to set elevations for the parking lot and curbs. Clark stated that once the building is above grade, grid lines would be shot within the interior as reference points for the trades. Near completion, the grades will be surveyed for landscaping. Sawatzke asked why there was $98,850 budgeted for "Temp Stairs & Ramps". Martin stated that safety guard rails would be required for the roof. Clark stated that the second floor mezzanine will require temporary stairs and railing (rented from a local equipment rental center) until the permanent stairs and railings are installed. The temporary stairs, ramps, and rails are all required by OSHA. Russek inquired about the "Traffic Control" line item. Sawatzke stated that the Committee has requested that A&P use the County's Highway Department for traffic control, barricades, and snow removal. Sawatzke stated that the goal is not to pay these budgeted line items, and strictly use the County's Highway Department. Russek inquired on the purpose of construction fences. Martin stated that sometimes a construction fence is put in place to enclose delivered materials in a lockable area. Clark stated that there is a possibility that they may not even use construction fences, however if there is a point where contractors are finding their equipment, tools or materials being stolen, the building site may need to be secured. Sawatzke asked at what point the building would be enclosed so that it can be locked or secured. Russek expressed concern on whether the building would be secured prior to copper or wire being installed into the building. Clark stated that the precast walls are to be installed first at the LEC. The footings are in. The walls will then go up around the Jail, the bar joists will go up, and then the link between the Jail and LEC will be temporarily enclosed with reinforced poly so that the heaters can be going for the trades. Russek proposed requesting the Sheriff Department to do additional and frequent drive bys. Clark stated that in the past, if a project has been located in a rough neighborhood, A&P has hired a night security person.
Sawatzke asked why KKE's pay application was not included in the group. Norman stated that KKE submits a separate pay application to the County. Russek asked how many wells are supposed to be drilled. Martin stated that there would be 424 wells. Russek stated that he is to give a presentation on 12-04-07 to AMC regarding the County going green with the geo-wells. Martin stated that MEP was the consultant to KKE who provided the geo-well information. Russek stated that KKE will be at the vendor fair and would possibly be interested in assisting with his presentation. Per procedure, Pay Application #5 will be forwarded to the Auditor/Treasurer to be included as part of his Consent Agenda Items for the 11-27-07 County Board Meeting. RECOMMENDATION: Approve and authorize Pay Application #5. (End of Owner's Committee Minutes)
A Technology Committee Of The Whole Meeting was held on 11-14-07. At today's County Board Meeting, Heeter moved to approve the minutes, seconded by Eichelberg. Mattson referenced an article relating to Winona County's study on 800 Mhz and VHF. He questioned why a study was being performed when counties have been told that the 800 Mhz System is the way to proceed. Heeter's understanding of the article was that the two systems interact, underscoring the need for all to be on the 800 Mhz system. Mattson will follow the results of the study as he understood VHF may work better than some of the other systems. The motion to approve the minutes carried unanimously:
Swing introduced Mike Mazzitello, GeoComm, by stating that the goal of today's meeting is to provide updates from the 7-25-07 Technology Committee of the Whole, timeline estimates and timing considerations, the project approval process, and grant considerations. Mazzitello stated that MnDOT now has the funding to pursue installing radio tower sites in Zimmerman, Enfield and Buffalo. They acquired most of the equipment for the construction of the towers, however, they are waiting to enter into contracts with the vendor that supplies the site-to-site microwave radio links. Buffalo's tower site is yet to be approved by the State. ARMER's implementation timeline has been extended eighteen months. Swing stated that Heeter and he have met with Mike Hogan, MnDOT, who has indicated that they are very busy with the broad statewide buildout. Mazzitello stated that the Buffalo tower will be constructed by August of 2008, however, it is forecasted that the implementation of the two-way radio system won't be ready until early to mid 2009. Mazzitello stated that this extension in the timeline will allow additional time for the grant seeking effort. He added that Motorola will have a detailed proposal with timelines, and possibly a signable contract, ready by December, 2007. Mazzitello reminded the Committee that the 800 MHz system is independent of the Jail/LEC. Motorola plans to have the new dispatch console installed in time with the move into the Jail/LEC. The console will be connected to the old system. Mattson asked if there are additional discounts in the pricing since the 7-25-07 Meeting. Swing stated that the 7-25-07 numbers are still valid. Mazzitello reassured the Committee that they are guiding the process and are interacting with the State. It has been made evident that the County wants the console first, then the 800 MHz Radio system. Mattson asked if the project costs will increase due to the timeline extension. Mazzitello stated that he does not foresee the costs changing. MnDOT already owns a lot of the equipment. Swing stated that they are intent on adhering to the costs presented on 7-25-07. Mazzitello recommended the solidification of a finance committee, with members representing Wright and Sherburne Counties, who can try to secure additional grant funding for the ARMER project. Mazzitello stated that this extended timeline is a positive in the attempt to secure additional project funding. Eichelberg asked if the Technical Plan for Participation had been approved by the State. Swing stated yes. Eichelberg asked if the County is in the position to start applying for grants. Swing stated yes and added that the grant process at the State level also has an extended timeline. Swing stated that Scott Wiggins, the new ARMER Program Manager, has informed Howell that they want to pursue a Southeast Regional and Local Enhancement Study to determine which counties are eligible for ARMER. Mazzitello stated that the original pot of grant money (as discussed at the 7-25-07 Meeting) may be spread across more counties due to this Study. The Study will provide additional opportunities to advertise the availability of ARMER funding to other counties. Howell stated that the longer they delay the deadline, the chance that more counties will be applying for the grant money. Heeter stated that with a later deadline, the amount of grant funding could be spread so thin, it could be more difficult for smaller municipalities to afford initiating ARMER. Howell stated that the Finance Committee for the Statewide Radio Board has suggested they may need to go back to the Legislature to request additional funding. Mazzitello stated that the Legislature is talking about how many towers should be built in order to provide 95% coverage. If additional towers need to be constructed, the Legislature will be looking for additional money, and the project could cost the County less. Norman asked if the $9.5 million grant allocation from the Legislature is carried in MnDOT's budget. Mazzitello stated that it is Homeland Security money. Norman stated that the funding is going to show as a revenue source with no expenditures against it. It will make the State's budget look good. Norman proposed that somebody at a local or regional level form a legislative committee in order to obtain a report from the people who are in charge of pushing this project along. The goal would be to find out how the project could be expedited. The next session is the bonding session, and if this isn't moving forward, the opportunity to obtain additional funding may not happen. Swing stated that perhaps Scott Wiggens could answer any of the above concerns. Swing presented GeoComm and EDI's Consulting Services Proposals (see attached). He added that he, Howell, and the team will be reviewing the proposals. The consulting services dollars are the same as what was proposed at the 7-25-07 Technology Committee Meeting.
Jay Hruby, EDI, stated that EDI has been working with the IT Department as well as the City on the redundant ring for the fiber, data, and phone system for the new LEC. EDI has also been working with the existing vendor, Spectrum. The purpose of the ongoing meetings was to ensure that the right system was being developed so that EDI could put a proposal out for bid. Most of the work has been completed and EDI anticipates putting the project out for bid in January, 2008. The bid due date will be in February with an award of a contract in March. Hruby stated that he believes this sequence works well with the general construction process. He feels that EDI will be able to obtain good pricing for the best technology, versus bidding early and paying for outdated equipment by the time the building is built. Hruby stated that he feels that EDI has been on track as planned, allowing them to comb through the details and be efficient with the design and accounts. Swing stated that the team has worked well together. On 11-19-07, Cheri Nelson will be working with EDI to produce an RFP. The consulting proposal from EDI is exclusive to the RFP work. The RFP will be reviewed by Asleson. After the contract award, EDI will be out of the picture and the County will be working solely with the vendor. Swing reminded the Committee that they could have sole sourced this project under the sole source Statute, however he feels that the County took the right step by working with EDI. (End of Technology Committee Of The Whole Minutes)
At 9:34 A.M., the Public Hearing was held to consider the 2008 Solid Waste Management Fee. Brian Asleson, Chief Deputy Attorney, said the County has an Ordinance which allows imposing a solid waste service charge. In the past, the County has imposed a fee to pay the debt service on the Compost Facility. Before setting the 2008 fee, the County is required to hold a Public Hearing. Hiivala presented an analysis of the Solid Waste Fund for the payable year 2008. In the two previous years, the County used $200,000 of the Debt Service Fund. The County is at the point where we will not have $200,000 in debt service dollars available. His calculation reflects a $25 solid waste fee for payable 2008. This is calculated by taking the debt service of $1,234,417.50 and adding 5% (as required by bonds) for a total of $1,296,138.38. That figure is then reduced by the $100,000 cash fund balance to reach a final total of $1,196,138.38 required. There are 47,730 parcels to divide this cost to, reaching a total of $25.06 required. The solid waste fee history (1995-2007) shows a gradual decline in the fee from a high of $42 to a low of $22. The slight recommended increase to $25 allows cash in the Fund which is recommended by the State Auditor. There are five years remaining on the bonds. The Public Hearing was closed at 9:38 A.M. Eichelberg moved to adopt Resolution #07-66 establishing the 2008 Solid Waste Management Fee at $25.00. The motion was seconded by Mattson and carried 5-0 on a roll call vote.
The Board reviewed a draft of the revised Wright County Personnel Policy 506, Business Related Expense Reimbursement. This draft was reviewed at the Human Services Board Meeting yesterday. Richard Norman, County Coordinator, requested that the effective date be 1-01-08. Sawatzke moved to approve the Policy as revised with an effective date of 1-01-08, seconded by Eichelberg, carried 5-0
Russek was informed yesterday that the NRCS will no longer be funding the rent for C.R.O.W. office space or computer connection. This is due to a shortage in funding at the NRCS. Currently, C.R.O.W. staff is housed at the SWCD office building in Buffalo. It was the consensus that the issue should be discussed at the next C.R.O.W. meeting. Russek will bring a report back to the Board on 12-12-07.
Notice was received of a Metropolitan Council Meeting, "Chair's Meeting with Neighboring County Officials" being held on 12-07-07 from 9:00-11:00 A.M. in St. Paul. Norman referenced one of the Agenda items, Highways and Transit-Principal Arterial Study and Transit Master Plan 2030 updates. A copy of the meeting announcement was forwarded to the Highway Engineer. Eichelberg moved to authorize attendance by the County Board or Department Heads. The motion was seconded by Heeter and carried 5-0.
Norman brought forth the Wright County Elected Officials Out-Of-State Travel Policy adopted 12-13-05. The Policy indicates that the intent was to review this annually as part of the County's budget review process. The Policy was not reviewed during the 2008 Budget process. At Norman's suggestion, Heeter moved to amend the Policy to reflect that the Policy will remain in effect until it is superseded. The motion was seconded by Sawatzke and carried 5-0.
Correspondence was received from Dodge County Administrator David J. McKnight, on behalf of the MN Association of County Administrators (MACA), acknowledging Richard Norman for his years of service on the MCIT Board of Directors. The letter recognized his dedicated service and professionalism. The work performed on the Board, on behalf of MACA along with the members of MCIT, helped establish MCIT as a leading public entity cooperative insurance provider in the nation. On behalf of the County Board, Russek commended Norman for his years of service on the MCIT Board of Directors. The County recently received a dividend from MCIT in the amount of $311,430. Norman thanked the Board for allowing him the opportunity to serve, stating that it has been a very rewarding experience.

山东十一选五预测 www.3ly15.cn Even as race continues to be one of the most divisive issues in the country, the celebration of cultural diversity is a dominant theme across the 70th Emmy Award nominations. Performers of color and series produced and written by minorities scored numerous nominations Thursday.
"Atlanta," "black-ish," "This Is Us" and "Westworld" are among the series receiving big nods that spotlight minorities in major creative and acting roles.
Hollywood has been rocked in recent years by controversies over the lack of awards recognition for people of color. But the stream of performers, producers and writers of color receiving Emmy nominations indicate that the Television Academy at least is placing a greater premium on honoring projects with diverse cultural perspectives.
One of the series leading the way is "Atlanta," from Donald Glover. Season 2 of the quirky, groundbreaking show was nominated for comedy series, while Glover received nods for lead actor, directing and writing. (He also received a nomination for guest-hosting "Saturday Night Live").
The FX series also scored nominations for supporting actor Brian Tyree Henry and supporting actress Zazie Beetz.
Glover made history last year when he became the first African-American to win an Emmy for comedy direction.
"Atlanta" will face off in the comedy category against ABC's "black-ish," which appears to have replaced ABC'S "Modern Family" as a network Emmy favorite. African-American stars Anthony Anderson and Tracee Ellis Ross were recognized in the lead actor and actress category, respectively.
While Anderson and Glover will face off for the second time in two years in the category, one of Ross' rivals will be black actress and comic Issa Rae, a first-time nominee for her HBO show "Insecure."
NBC's "This Is Us," the show about a multicultural family that premiered to huge critical acclaim last year, received its second nomination for drama series. Sterling K. Brown, who won lead actor in a drama series last year for the show, is nominated again; he'll compete against Jeffrey Wright ("Westworld"). Other nominees in the category include Jason Bateman ("Ozark"), Ed Harris ("Westworld") and Matthew Rhys ("The Americans").
Another high-profile nominee is Sandra Oh of "Killing Eve," who is the first Asian actress to be nominated in the lead actress in a drama category.
Antonio Banderas received a nomination for lead actor in a limited series or movie for his portrayal of the iconic artist Pablo Picasso in NatGeo's "Genius: Picasso." Regina King, who won two consecutive Emmys for supporting actress in a limited series or movie for ABC's anthology "American Crime," has landed again in the category with Netflix's "Seven Seconds," in which she plays the anguished mother of a young boy who is killed in a mysterious auto accident.
In the supporting actor in a comedy category, Henry of "Atlanta" will compete against Kenan Thompson ("Saturday Night Live") and Tony Shalhoub of "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel."
Other prominent nominees of color include John Legend (lead actor in a limited series or movie for "Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert"), Thandie Newton (supporting actress in a drama for "Westworld") and Leslie Jones (supporting actress in a comedy for "Saturday NIght Live"). Legend's nomination puts him in the running for the coveted EGOT - he's already won multiple Grammys, an Oscar (for "Selma") and a Tony (for "Jitney").

Students With Reading Disabilities Sue Berkeley Unified School District for Failing to Educate Them
Americas, May 18 2017
DREDF, with co–counsel, filed a complaint in federal court against Berkeley Unified School District (BUSD) for systemically failing to educate students with reading disorders, and students who are suspected to have reading disability. BUSD is being sued for failure to comply with federal and state laws that ensure all students receive a free appropriate public education. The lawsuit was filed by Disability Rights Education & Defense Fund (DREDF), Jacobson Education Law, Inc., and international law firm Goodwin in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.
Children with reading disabilities have extreme difficulty learning skills needed to become literate, such as decoding (sounding out) words. Many are incredibly intelligent and need to be taught how to read in different ways than their peers. The complaint describes in disturbing detail how students from kindergarten to high school have been failed by the school district on perhaps its most basic academic responsibility: teaching children how to read. Some students have special education plans known as Individualized Education Programs (IEP) or Section 504 plans in place, but have nevertheless struggled unnecessarily with literacy because of the district's across–the–board refusals. The suit contends that BUSD is failing to comply with federal and state laws, and implementing regulations (the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and California Education Code Sections 56000 et seq.).
Deborah Jacobson of Jacobson Education Law, Inc. said, "What's happening in BUSD matters because, in California alone, it's estimated that more than 1 million students in K–12 public schools display signs of dyslexia. This is potentially an entire population of children who will struggle needlessly and possibly enter society functionally illiterate, no matter how intelligent, driven and capable they are. I've seen too many families in the BUSD have to resort to extreme measures including homeschooling just so their children with reading disorders are spared the shame and emotional trauma of not learning to read alongside their peers."
Despite being aware for years of needed changes to its policies and practices, BUSD has systemically failed to identify, evaluate, and provide appropriate reading intervention services and accommodations to students with reading disorders that are necessary for them to learn to read and advance academically from grade to grade.
It is estimated that 6 to 17 percent of the population in the United States demonstrates some sign of dyslexia, making it the most prevalent learning disability by far.
DREDF is very fortunate that so many people who share in and support our work also understand one of our biggest challenges: time. Litigation, especially impact litigation, requires a huge investment of time on our part before we can even begin to think about recouping any expenses. This case is no different. We've been developing it for over four years, working with parents, trying to negotiate a resolution with the district, and building it for litigation. Filing the complaint, as you surely know, is just one step in a very long process. That means if you've been our supporter within, say, the last four years, you share our sense of accomplishment in protecting the rights of students with disabilities. Thank you for sticking with us so that we can stick up for students, and all people, with disabilities.

We offer a new functionality for all interested persons to test and use saved queries.
Saved queries enable to update a table without selecting the table and values of variables in the database. Saved queries can be viewed and changed. To save and use queries, the user has to be registered (Register as new user). For traditional use of database you do not need to register and log in.
To save and use queries, you have to log in. For logging in, you need to enter your e-mail address and password. If you have forgotten your password, you can order it to your e-mail address (Forgot password?).
After you have selected the table and values for variables, and displayed the table on screen, you can save your selection for later use. Prior to that you can make one table-related operation, e.g. to pivot it. Upon saving the query, you can change the code and title of table.
It depends on tables how you can use saved queries. If it is offered, upon saving the query, to specify how the values for time variable (year) should be handled when updating the table by saved queries, you can use saved query to include next year to your table after it has appeared in the database table.
In case you are offered to select a time variable, you can choose between four variants:
Only the time period "year" is considered a time variable in this connection.
In case you are not offered to make a selection of time variable, next year will not be included in the table when using saved query, data in the previously selected table will just be updated.
Saved queries can be used for updating tables with monthly and quarterly data. It can be done by using both options. Regarding the first option, next year will be included automatically. Regarding the second option, you should create a new query for the next year. For example, after the data for January have been published in the database table, you should select all 12 months for your table, although the data for February, etc. are not published yet, and save the query. By using the saved query later on, you can automatically update your table every month after the data in the database table have been published. Can the next year be automatically added, depends on the fact, whether it was possible to select a time variable when saving your query.
You can save your query for displaying the table on screen, for downloading it in different formats or for importing data into Excel by using Excel Web Query. In the latter case, an iqy-file is set up. It is advisable to save the iqy-file, open it, and save the obtained Excel table. In table specification, you should mark Refresh data on file open (in the pop-up menu: Data Range Properties…). As MS Internet Explorer usually saves the displayed information in cache, you should refresh the screen for several times.
When logging in next time, you can find saved queries on screen for viewing and downloading. To update the table, you have to click on the code of table. To use Excel Web Query, you have to open the previously saved iqy-file or Excel table and select Refresh Data in pop-up menu.
You can see specifications of all saved queries, including the specifications of Excel Web Query, by clicking on Edit saved table specification.

STOP PRESS: Discrimination chews fat on Habit Heroes, No sympathy for Brain Pilot
Welcome back readers, and for those who come across this page, please note that the following blog post was written on full-on hair trigger, out of a mixture of emotions, and probably taking a different turn on the 'oust Habit Heroes' movement (this time, not just citing mental conditioning and body image issues, but to reignite Wonders of Life's role in Epcot's history now at risk of being upsurped by its fallen successor.
It seems that while Habit Heroes has the technology to get everyone into getting fit and picking up health habits, it seems that not everyone is enjoying the exhibit for what it's worth.
According to a news article from the Huffington Press, it seems that these 'fallen heroes' may be psychologically hitting kids with bricks. Prognosis? Discrimination. While this was literally uncalled for (I sympathize with the Mouse and they didn't mean to hurt anyone), there are people in the wide belt (no, literally) who have had their feelings hurt thanks to how the exhibit portrayed them. Even this article from Epcyclopedia has picked it up. Even now, dieting blogs, and even health professionals are even prepared to pick up their lighters and igniting an Occupy Movement against the Habit Heroes.

Epic Brain Fart, or Stroke of Bad Luck?
Apologies for the title, but behind every Epcot pavilion, there's bound to be something worth raising eyebrows – interesting secrets and mind-boggling trivia (that is), or even 'urban legends' behind the pavilion and it's attractions. In this tradition, the Wonders of Life pavilion is no exception. Of course, some 'urban legend' tales about the pavilion, despite being hard to believe by itself, would prove a little fascinating to even believe that it may have happened.
One example of an 'urban legend' tale from the Wonders of Life was, in a sorrowful ironic twist of fate, the loss of a four year old girl aboard a ride on Body Wars (thanks to an undiscovered heart condition) in May 1995. Seventeen years on, we express our condolences.
Moving on, and we now focus on Wonder's iconic attractions (no brainer to work it out), but this time, on a seldomly quoted 'brain fart' mentioned by a few guests and even a cast member during their deployment in Wonders during its heyday (make that 'failday'?) Just because Cranium Command was a successful take of the way the brain interacts with the body, doesn't mean it had done so without a few brain farts along the way...

Meet and Greet? You Gotta Be Stitch-ing Me!
Welcome back, readers, and I'm apologising beforehand for readers not accustomed to character invasions in EPCOT (well, ironically after the Wonders of Life started it first!), but a random though popped up in my mind with regards to character meet and greets (that is, if it were allowed in my hypothetical resurrection of WOL) - who we might expect to encounter, and in which location and setting? Still a very touchy subject by broad fan discussion standards, but in this imaginative pondering of this eyebrow-raising thought bubble, let's assume we do so...
...never mind the reactions... But let's start off with a few suggestions, as mentioned in a forum post provided below:
...but if it were up to me, I'd retheme the entirety of the pavilion to appear like you're inside a human body... lots of kinetic blood moving through tubes, electrical impulses moving through out the ceiling, a very low steady heartbeat, exhibits all over the place explaining body functions (not unlike the old hands on exhibits), and a food court in the "stomach". Leave an updated Cranium Command in the "brain" as the headliner and you've got yourself place people would want to visit.Bathrooms would, of course, be found in the bladder.And a Meet & Greet with Stitch in the colon.
From Krack, "What to do with WoL?", post #3Sure, sure, that would not be glamorous in a sense... after all, you can appropriately say that Stitch is probably the star with his own right to edge on the gross side (don't get me started on the nose-pick stunt!) However, this somehow reminds me of a cuddly, snuggly piece of concept art done prior to the blog, starring the alien experiment couple, somehow in an Innerspace getaway...
...okay, enough. Now you've got your drift about the only good thing about a meet and greet in this manner, then perhaps it would be far wiser to have him in the exploration suit shown above. Probably a little similar to the slim body-fitting suits that Dr. Cynthia Lair would have been seen wearing, and probably to have a few in the audience drooling... *sigh* "...Braddock, we need a mop."
Aside from the cleanup, we'll focus on another character candidate that could probably raise some ideas. In the past, Body Wars served as the future equivalent of the medical facility, this time for touring purposes. But assuming we give Stitch and the galactic head honchos (if we assume so) the authority to have room for themselves, then it would be far wiser to consider saying hi to someone in charge:
|Oh boy...
But enough with scattering blue fur all over the topic of meet and greets. According to the What's Next for WOL survey, over half of the respondents don't necessarily approve of having a character play host for the pavilion. Be it lucky that Stitch hasn't gotten his name in the survey, and I hope nobody's getting any ideas about it. Anywho, let's give this topic a little more space and go ahead another one that's plaguing my cranium into confusion until now...

Footsteps - Sportsworks exhibit
To the bloggers new to reading the blog, welcome. And for those who are here following the blog on its various research and travels, welcome back. In Footsteps, we investigate a selection of exhibits outside EPCOT territory... which, for some apparent inspirational (and unintentional) reason, decided to follow in the footsteps of the Wonders of Life pavilion. And this first article issue will cover a particular exhibit which, must I confess, is apparently one closest to my resident city from where I am writing. Where in the world is the exhibit I'm writing about?

...moving on. However, this exhibit isn't the only one that demonstrates science behind sport, physiology and everything else in this category. Believe it or not, depending on where the last time you visited a science museum was, you may have encountered a sports exhibit similar to this one. The Carnegie Science Center in Pittsburgh of the US, has a similarly titled sports exhibit in the science center - Highmark Sportsworks, and there is an entire gallery of photos from the exhibit opening if you're curious.
