Pine 44-Bottle Wine Rack
Great Value
4 Nice vertical racks to organize my reds. I'll probably buy another one. I shopped around and this is the best design and value I found.
December 26, 2011
This is my 2nd one, there may be a 3rd.
We needed good sturdy storage that maximizes space, I bought one of these a while ago and when I looked for a 2nd they were unavailable. So happy to get this. By the way there is no assembly it comes out of the box this way. No muss, no fuss.
December 22, 2011
Nice wine rack
This wine rack fit all my needs. It holds a good capacity of bottles. I stained the wood to match my living room. Looks great. Very good value.
August 16, 2011
Perfect for a basic wine collection
I live in a condo with limited space. I have a small downstairs closet and this fits perfectly in the side of the closet without interfering with the rest of my closets use and storage. It is a perfect storage for my new wine collection. I love it!
October 16, 2010
I had previously kept my wine bottles in the dining room in an attractive 6 bottle wooden wine rack. I realized the lighting and temperature of the room was not doing my wine any good, so I decided to expand my wine collection and move the wine to the basement. After reading all the reviews of this rack I bought it and decided to take an assembled unit home. I just love it, it does the job and my wine is much happier out of the sunlight and in a cooler temperature. Wine racks in your living quarters look great, but what's worth more, looks or properly stored wine that tastes great?, I chose taste over looks :)
September 10, 2009
Perfect find
I was looking for a ready-made wine rack that would fit above my refrigerator where I had taken out those little cabinets that are useless. I had thought about building something but I saw this and realized I could cut it down and make it fit. It worked about perfectly! I painted mine to match my painted cabinets and it looks professional. I am so pleased.
June 29, 2009
Sturday and simple, does the job!
We love it!
June 3, 2009
I bought this when it was on sale.
I bought this when it was on sale. [$] is too much. I think I paid about [$]. I keep these in the basement. There is nothing to assemble. It is sturdy wood. It fits standard size wine bottles only. Actually when the economy gets better (and my paycheck) I'd like to buy another one when on sale. I keep them in my wine cellar in the basement. Sorry you are closing your stores in Minnesota.

Amblyopia the loss of the ability to see clearly through one eye. It is also called "lazy eye." It is the most common cause of vision problems in children.
Lazy eye
Amblyopia occurs when the nerve pathway from one eye to the brain does not develop during childhood. This happens because the abnormal eye sends a blurred image or the wrong image to the brain.
This confuses the brain, and the brain may learn to ignore the image from the weaker eye.
Strabismus (crossed eyes) is the most common cause of amblyopia. There is often a family history of this condition.
The term "lazy eye" refers to amblyopia, which often occurs along with strabismus. However, amblyopia can occur without strabismus. Also, people can have strabismus without amblyopia.
Other causes include:
Symptoms of the condition include:
In most cases, amblyopia can be detected with a complete eye exam. Special tests are not often needed.
The first step will be correct any eye condition that is causing poor vision in the amblyopic eye (such as cataracts).
Children with a refractive error (nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism) will need glasses.
Next, a patch is placed on the normal eye. This forces the brain to recognize the image from the eye with amblyopia. Sometimes, drops are used to blur the vision of the normal eye instead of putting a patch on it.
Children whose vision will not fully recover, and those with only one good eye due to any disorder should wear shatter- and scratch-resistant glasses.
Children who get treated before age 5 almost always recover vision that is close to normal. However, they may continue to have problems with depth perception.
Permanent vision problems may result if treatment is delayed. Children treated after age 10 can expect vision to recover only partially.
Complications may include:
Call your health care provider or ophthalmologist if you suspect a vision problem in a young child.
Identifying and treating the problem early prevents children from having permanent visual loss. All children should have a complete eye exam at least once between ages 3 and 5.
Special methods are used to measure vision in a child who is too young to speak. Most eye care professionals can perform these techniques.

A Sustainable Landscape: Reducing Waste, Energy and Materials.
Creating a sustainable landscape is designing and creating systems that imitate nature and turn the problems into solutions. Using my own yard as a module, I have conceived and developed five 60-second vignettes based on sustainable landscape practices and an environmentally conscious ethic. They contain five important themes that will help you increase your sustainable landscape gardening skills.
Episode 1 - Sustainable Lawns: Use Organic Fertilizer and Low-Maintenance Grasses
Reduce fertilizer, pesticide and water requirements by planting grass species that are adapted to local conditions. Lower-maintenance grasses suitable for Connecticut conditions include the turf-type tall fescues, dwarf tall fescues, and the fine-leaf fescues (creeping red, chewings, sheep, and hard).
Frequently Asked Questions About Your Lawn
Episode 2 - Native Plants: Alternatives to Traditional Choice
Utilizing native plants as much as possible in your own yard eliminates the need for outside inputs of fertilizer and pesticides. Their excessive use in the suburban landscape can be a source of runoff or non-point source pollution. Many native plants have low water and maintenance requirement, virtually eliminating the need for watering and wasting of this precious resource. Once established these types of plants require little care and input in your own yard.
Episode 3 - Creating a Healthy Environment: A Low-Maintenance Landscape
Utilizing drought tolerant and low maintenance species of lawn grasses and ornamental plants will eliminate the need for watering and wasting this precious resource. Once established these types of plants require little care and input in your own yard.
Episode 4 - Biodiversity Gardens: Include a Wide Variety of Life
A bio-diverse garden and landscape supports a wide variety of life, from plants and animals, to insects and beneficial pollinators. Planting a wide spectrum of species from local wildflowers to non-invasive plants will attract local pollinators, beneficial insects and hummingbirds to visit your gardens again and again.
Epsiode 5 - Practicing Good Ecology: Recycling Yard Waste
Transforming yard waste into yard wealth is a practice we encourage and is nothing more than recycling all organic matter, including leaves, grass clipping and yard trimmings that can be reused, recycled or even reduced. Recycling as much as possible in your own yard eliminates the need for outside inputs of fertilizer whose excessive use in the suburban landscape can be a source of runoff or non-point source pollution.
What is sustainable landscaping and why should it matter?
So much of the popular and academic environmental literature today mentions the word sustainability and it has been used in a variety of ways with a plethora of meanings. We use this word in the context that sustainability refers to meeting the needs of today's population without diminishing the ability of future populations to meet their needs.
In my opinion, it's much more. It's recognizing the interconnectedness of all life in nature.
It's an approach to connect people back to the earth by tilling the soil, growing food, or caring about the local or global landscape resulting in becoming stewards of the earth.
What does this have to do with the landscape and the neighborhood or watershed in which you live? Everything!
Approximately eighty-two million households in the United States are involved in some form of gardening. These homeowners pose a considerable threat to natural functioning ecosystems primarily through the overuse of pesticides and fertilizers that can affect the water quality in nearby ground and surface water areas.
In Connecticut, this has been documented by a number of studies showing high levels of pesticides and nutrients, primarily nitrates, leaching into drinking water wells and flowing into rivers that enter Long Island Sound
Become an active participant or even better an advocate of these themes, as they are the vital threads linking theory to practice. I hope these lessons will help you become environmentally conscious as you interact with your landscape. So have some fun and enjoy this production and remember, by being green you will save green. I hope you will adopt some of these techniques for your own yard and tell your neighbors too. All of us together can begin by restoring the health of our own backyards and on a cumulative level the wellbeing of the planet.
Gardening With Nature is brought to you by CPTV and the University of Connecticut Cooperative Extension System.

Home → School Improvement Grants
School Improvement Grants
Each year, starting in 2009-10, the Maine Department of Education names schools to the School Improvement Grant (SIG) eligibility list. The schools meet a series of detailed criteria, established by federal guidelines, and have experienced below average proficiency and growth on State testing.
Schools on the list are eligible to apply for school improvement grants which are spread over a three-year period. Under federal guidelines, if they apply for and receive the funds, they must agree to pursue a plan for turning around the school using one of four models.
The transformation model described below has been the most common choice for Maine schools.
- Turnaround: Replace the principal, screen existing school staff and rehire no more than half the teachers; adopt a new governance structure; and improve the school through curriculum reform, professional development, extending learning time and other strategies.
- Restart: Convert a school or close it and re-open it as a charter school or under an education management organization.
- School Closure: Close the school and send the students to higher-achieving schools in the district.
- Transformation: Replace the principal and improve the school through comprehensive curriculum reform, professional development, extending learning time and other strategies.
SIG in Maine
In 2013-14, the Maine DOE named 13 schools to the SIG eligibility list and named one, the James Otis Kaler Elementary School in South Portland, as the sole recipient of the available funds.
- State awards South Portland Kaler Elementary $1.6 million for school improvement. Press release published June 11, 2014.
- 2013-14 SIG. List of applications received and funded.
- 2013-14 School Improvement Grants Eligibility List. Thirteen Maine schools were named to the eligibility list.
- 2013-14 Methodology for Identifying ESEA Priority Schools. (PDF, 66KB) This list was used to determine the SIG eligibility list.

"The Kingston Ultimate 3.0 G3 flash drive is a third-generation unit for professional business users demanding high performance and a solid, understated, stylish, and cap-less design. With capacities of up to 64 GB, it also offers the storage required by some."
"Deepcool's IceBlade Pro V2.0 heatsink stands 161mm tall and weighs a solid 981 grams. At the heart of this boxy heatsink are four 8mm diameter copper heatpipes, nickel plated along with everything else, including the aluminum fins. The heatpipes are exposed at the base to make direct contact with the processor and ideally, reduce thermal joint resistance."
"The PC gaming industry is changing. NVIDIA's Project Shield and the upcoming Steambox and Steam's Big Picture Mode are indications that PC gamers want to move into the living room. At CES we saw many different compact gaming systems from the likes of Alienware, Digital Storm and iBUYPOWER. Today we are getting our hands on one. iBUYPOWER's Revolt is the newest compact gaming system in which iBUYPOWER is using their own custom designed compact case, and their own motherboard. This is something new as we mainly know iBUYPOWER for using other companies hardware in their custom systems. This system is small enough to fit in your home theater, can easily be taken to LAN parties and did I mention it looks awesome? Inside you will find a watercooled Z77 system, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670 and 8GB of DDR3."
Think Computers
"We have taken a look at a whole collection of unique case designs in the past with two standing out more than the others. The Silverstone Fortress FT01 and the Silverstone Raven. Both stood out because of their 90 degree rotated motherboard design that works so well for cooling. Although no one else been making cases with the motherboard oriented that way, Silverstone is still working on perfecting the design now with their Raven 3. We loved the previous versions so I have high hopes for the Raven 3. Lets take a look to see what is new and how it performs."
LanOC Reviews
"Technology marches to the beat of its own drum and the hard part is keeping in step with the rhythm. You may recall, for example, that we already reviewed Dell's XPS 13 Ultrabook a year ago, singing high praise for its edge-to-edge display, stellar battery life, and overall performance, which at the time was the best we'd seen from an Ultrabook. If we were to compare it with today's crop of Ultrabooks, however, we'd have to sing a different tune now that Ivy Bridge is pervasive in the market. Or would we? Dell went back and re-wrote the lyrics without changing the name of the song, which is our way of saying the XPS 13 Ultrabook we have for review is a refreshed model..."

Each of those had their own strong points and their own week points. The ACER Aspire s7-191-6640 really didn't seem to have much in the way any weak points, at least not in my experience. Of course there could always be more performance from the processor, but hey, that's pretty much true of any system out there..."

"With the Platinum Series Fanless 520 W, Seasonic has an entirely passive cooled power supply in its portfolio. For a passive cooled unit this device is everything but weak, since with 520 Watts you can power quite a machine. Furthermore this power supply received the 80Plus Platinum certificate, which means that at 50 percent load, the efficiency is above 92 percent."
"Ace Combat: Assault Horizon, the game that was originally released to consoles in 2011, has finally made its way to the PC. It aims to deliver on all the points flight sim fans love, so let's find out if the game earns high marks as a top gun, or if it's just a long dart waiting to crash and burn."
"The Noctua NH-L9a low profile AMD CPU cooler may be small, but it definitely isn't weak. During testing it easily outperformed the stock cooler it replaced in terms of cooling power and noise production. There aren't too many coolers available for tiny HTPCs and small form factor computers, but this seems like a great choice."
"Today on our test bench we will be taking a look at FUNC's first gaming mouse in their new range, the MS-3. The MS-3 is a 10 button large gaming mouse with a unique thumbzone button configuration and we are keen to see if it lives up to the quality reputation that FUNC have for their products."

"I would still recommend these speakers to anyone looking for unique, clear sounding and cost effective speakers. These are not mere generic multimedia speakers and they stand out for sure. If you are looking for foundation movers in terms of bass, you might want something more substantial. . ."

" I remember a time when we all went out occasionally to see all the latest complete stereo systems launched from all the leading manufacturers like SONY, Philips, Pioneer, Panasonic, AIWA, Technics and Yamaha only to find out in the end that we couldn't really afford to get the highest end models featuring 10 CD disc changers (or more), mini discs and plenty of bells and whistles which of course were not available on the cheapest models. Times have changed however and so nowadays most people prefer to use their computer systems, media stations and smartphones to listen to their favorite music while at the comfort of their home and so the only real issue is finding a quality speaker set capable of fulfilling that task with ease. Well the latest Wireless Speakers by our friends over at Audyssey just might be the right ones for the job."

"I feel that ROCCAT did a very good job with the Kone XTD gaming mouse. As games get more and more complex, mice like these are needed to give the gamer more power at his/her fingertips, without having to reach for a key. MMO's demand so many macro keys and buttons, it isn't funny. Toss in ROCCAT's Easy-Shift[+] technology, and you have twice the buttons at your fingertips! The layout of the mouse is pretty generic, with exception to the button in front of the scroll wheel, but this generic layout is quite comfortable and welcome. The 8200DPI sensor will absolutely provide superior tracking precision, and a lot of gamers will love that! The construction and quality feels exceptional and will be desirable by many..."

The Face
The Face. My first large LEGO sculpture. After making small models for years, I decided to make a creation of larger proportions. What better subject matter than the face in the mirror! Using a black & white photo and a lot of graph paper I came up with a plan for a rather large mosaic. Wanting it to stand on its own, I decided to make The Face ten studs thick so it could easily support itself. The Face is 80 studs wide and 94 bricks high. I wasn't really counting, but I think I used about 5000 pieces. As can be seen in the photos of the backside of the model, I used random pieces to make up the inside so that the front appeared smooth.

GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
Long layovers, crammed overhead bins, multiple plane changes; the Footlocker is built to endure travel nightmares. It breezed through GHRI durability and water repellency tests.

Tip #1:
"Condenser" and "dynamic" refer to two ways that a microphone can convert sound into an electrical signal.
In a condenser microphone, the diaphragm is a very thin plastic film, coated on one side with gold or nickel, and mounted very close to a conductive stationary back plate. A polarizing voltage is applied to the diaphragm by an external power supply (battery or phantom power) or by the charge on an electret material in the diaphragm or on the backplate charging it with a fixed static voltage. All Crown mics are the electret condenser type. The diaphragm and back plate, separated by a small volume of air, form an electrical component called a capacitor (or condenser). The capacitance between these two plates varies as the freely suspended diaphragm is displaced by the sound wave. When the diaphragm vibrates in response to a sound, it moves closer to and farther away from the back plate. As it does so, the electrical charge that it induces in the back plate changes proportionally. The fluctuating voltage on the back plate is therefore an electrical representation of the diaphragm motion. The dynamic (moving-coil) microphone is like a miniature loudspeaker working in reverse. The diaphragm is attached to a coil of fine wire. The coil is mounted in the air gap of the magnet and is free to move back and forth within the gap. When the sound wave strikes the diaphragm, the diaphragm vibrates in response. The coil attached to the diaphragm moves back and forth in the field of the magnet. As the coil moves through the lines of magnetic force in the gap, a small electrical current is induced in the wire. The magnitude and direction of that current is directly related to the motion of the coil, and the current then is an electrical representation of the sound wave. Condenser microphones typically have a wide-range frequency response and excellent transient response, while dynamic microphones typically do not. There are exceptions. Condenser microphones are typically used on acoustic instruments and studio vocals. Dynamic microphones are typically used on guitar amps and drums, and for vocal sound reinforcement. However, Crown makes rugged condenser mics for vocal sound reinforcement. |

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of Arizona, the Senate concurring:
1. Article X, section 7, Constitution of Arizona, is proposed to be amended as follows if approved by the voters and on proclamation of the Governor:
7. Establishment of permanent funds; segregation, investment and distribution of monies
Section 7. A. A separate permanent fund shall be established for each of the several objects for which the said grants are made and confirmed by the enabling act to the state, and whenever any monies shall be in any manner derived from any of said lands, the same shall be deposited by the state treasurer in the permanent fund corresponding to the grant under which the particular land producing such monies was, by the enabling act, conveyed or confirmed.
B. No monies shall ever be taken from one permanent fund for deposit in any other, or for any object other than that for which the land producing the same was granted or confirmed.
C. All such monies shall be invested in safe interest-bearing securities and prudent equity securities consistent with the requirements of this section.
D. The legislature shall establish a board of investment to serve as trustees of the permanent funds. The board shall provide for the management of the assets of the funds consistent with the following conditions:
1. Not more than sixty per cent of a fund at cost may be invested in equities at any time.
2. Equities that are eligible for purchase are restricted to stocks listed on any national stock exchange or eligible for trading through the United States national association of securities dealers automated quotation system, or successor institutions, except as may be prohibited by general criteria or by a restriction on investment in a specific security adopted pursuant to this subsection.
3. Not more than five per cent of all of the funds combined at cost may be invested in equity securities issued by the same institution, agency or corporation, other than securities issued as direct obligations of and fully guaranteed by the United States government.
E. In making investments under this section the state treasurer and trustees shall exercise the judgment and care under the prevailing circumstances that an institutional investor of ordinary prudence, discretion and intelligence exercises in managing large investments entrusted to it, not in regard to speculation, but in regard to the permanent disposition of monies, considering the probable safety of capital as well as the probable total rate of return over extended periods of time.
F. The earnings, interest, dividends and realized capital gains and losses from investment of a permanent fund, shall be credited to that fund.
G. The board of investment shall determine the amount of the annual distributions required by this section and allocate distributions pursuant to law. Beginning July 1, 2000 and except as otherwise provided in this section, the amount of the annual distribution from a permanent fund established pursuant to this section is the amount determined by multiplying the following factors:
1. The average of the annual total rate of return for the immediately preceding five complete fiscal years less the average of the annual percentage change in the GDP price deflator, or a successor index, for the immediately preceding five complete fiscal years. For the purposes of this paragraph:
(a) "Annual total rate of return" means the quotient obtained by dividing the amount credited to a fund pursuant to subsection F for a complete fiscal year, plus unrealized capital gains and losses, by the average monthly market value of the fund for that year.
(b) "GDP price deflator" means the gross domestic price deflator reported by the United States department of commerce, bureau of economic analysis, or its successor agency.
2. The average of the monthly market values of the fund for the immediately preceding five complete fiscal years.
H. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, the annual distribution from the permanent funds for fiscal years
1999-2000 through 2002-2003
1. For fiscal year 1999-2000, the greater of five per cent of the average of the monthly market values of the funds for fiscal years 1994-1995 through 1998-1999 or the average of actual annual distributions for fiscal years 1994-1995 through 1998-1999.
2. For fiscal years 2000-2001 through 2002-2003, the greater of the average of the actual annual distributions for the immediately preceding five complete fiscal years or the amount of the distribution required by subsection G.
2. The Secretary of State shall submit this proposition to the voters at the next general election as provided by article XXI, Constitution of Arizona.
In 1910, the United States Congress passed the Arizona-New Mexico Enabling Act, allowing Arizona to become a state and granting Arizona approximately 10.9 million acres of land, referred to as "state trust land". The state land trust produces revenue for various public institutions in this state (schools, colleges, prisons, etc.). Proposition 118 would amend the Arizona Constitution to provide that for fiscal years 2012-2013 through 2020-2021, the annual distribution from the state trust land permanent funds to the various public institutions would be 2.5% of the average market values of the fund for the immediately preceding five calendar years. After fiscal year 2020-2021, the distribution formula would return to the current formula set out in the Arizona Constitution: average total rate of return for the previous five fiscal years, less percentage change in inflation, multiplied by the average market value over the previous five years.
Prop 118 allows us to simplify the formula for education funding, ensuring that money will be distributed to support K-12 education each year from Arizona's Permanent Land Endowment Trust Fund. Best of all, it accomplishes this with NO new taxes and NO additional general fund spending.
Right now there are about 8.1 million acres in the state's trust fund for K-12 education. Every time the state sells a piece of state land, those proceeds are deposited into the State Treasurer's Office to be managed into perpetuity. Today the market value of the Permanent Land Endowment Trust Fund is more than $3.4 billion. If that were a college endowment, it would be the twenty-first largest endowment in the country.
Upon review of an asset allocation study for the fund, it became clear that the formula used to distribute earnings was critically flawed. Its complications have resulted in uneven and unpredictable outcomes - including a year when ZERO dollars were distributed for K-12 education. If left unchanged, this current formula would likely result in several additional years - - over the next decade - - of zero dollar distributions. This is unacceptable, and must be fixed. An endowment this large should never have years of zero dollars available to benefit Arizona's children and teachers.
Prop 118 fixes the formula and ensures consistent, reliable distributions that will protect the principal and never result in a zero dollar distribution. Prop 118 achieves this with no new taxes and no additional obligations for new spending.
As members of Arizona's Board of Investment we support this improved formula and encourage you to vote "YES" on Prop 118.
There is a special relationship between Arizona's education community, the State Treasurer's Office, and the State Land Department. Public education is by far the largest beneficiary of State Trust Land managed by the State Land Department. Revenues derived from the sale of State Trust Land, as well as the sale of natural products (such as sand, gravel, water and fuel wood), and royalties from mineral materials are deposited in the Permanent Land Endowment Trust Fund managed by the State Treasurer's Office. Today, the State Land Department manages 8.1 million acres of land on behalf of K-12 education, and the Permanent Land Endowment Trust fund is worth more than $3.5 billion.
Earning money for Arizona's public schools is the primary mission of the Trust's management. In 2010 the State Land Department deposited $91.7 million in the Endowment. Because of the inadequacy of the current formula used to distribute earnings from the Endowment, K-12 education received no money in 2010. Prop 118 fixes that inadequate formula. Had the new formula been in place in 2010, public education would have received $48 million from the Permanent Land Endowment Trust Fund.
Prop 118 Provides Reliable Education Funding in Arizona
The Friends of the Arizona School Boards Association urges your support of Prop. 118. It's a win-win proposal - providing Arizona's classrooms with more reliable funding and doing so through a formula change that still protects the underlying value of the account which has been derived from state trust land sales - the State Land Trust Permanent Endowment fund.
There are over nine million acres of state trust land, with Arizona's public schools being the largest beneficiary, holding 87% of these lands. The interest earned off the sale of trust lands is deposited in the State Land Trust Permanent Endowment fund. Arizona's classrooms are direct recipients of the interest earned from this Endowment fund.
Over a decade ago, an interest distribution formula was put in place to help curb volatility and to protect our public schools asset from inflation. Unfortunately, the formula has not smoothed out distribution volatility, making it difficult for our public schools to budget. Prop. 118 fixes this by establishing a new flat distribution percentage to allow for consistent distributions while still protecting the fund from inflationary effects.
Please vote YES ON 118 to enhance education funding to Arizona's public schools.
I encourage your "YES" vote on Proposition 118. This measure is a positive change for the distribution formula of state trust funds for education.
There is currently $3.2 billion set aside in the Trust Fund to benefit education. In some years, the distribution has been as high as $80 million, and in other years there has been no funding at all. This type of swing in distribution based on the size of the fund and the current formula makes it more difficult for our schools to plan and spend accordingly. As taxpayers, we demand that schools budget efficiently and use their resources wisely to educate our children. This proposal will make that easier by ensuring that the annual Trust Fund allocation to Arizona schools is smooth, even and predictable.
A "Yes" vote on Proposition 118 is a win for our children and teachers. A "Yes" vote on Proposition 118 is a win for taxpayers and advocates of good government.
Arizona Chamber of Commerce and Industry supports Proposition 118
The Arizona Chamber has a longstanding position of developing a school financing system and educational structure that improves learning outcomes in a financially responsible manner. Proposition 118 is a simple yet important change that will significantly impact K-12 funding in a way that is financially responsible and consistent with the Chamber's education goals. This measure will result in more reliable and consistent K-12 education funding with no new taxes and no new spending from the General Fund.
Proposition 118 will restructure the distribution formula for the Permanent Land Endowment Fund, whose largest beneficiary is K-12 education. Because of the complexity of the current funding formula, the distribution of dollars is uneven and unpredictable. In fact, there are some years when there are zero dollars distributed to K-12 from this fund. The Chamber supports Proposition 118 because of its fiscally responsible and stable approach to helping fund K-12 education.
We urge voters to support Proposition 118.

Vote YES on Prop 118 to help support Arizona public education, teachers and children.
Prop 118 fixes and improves the Arizona State Endowment distribution formula providing a safer and more reliable source of funding for education and other beneficiaries. Prop 118 protects the principle of the Trust from inflation, stabilizes distributions to beneficiaries including public education. Prop 118 will protect the trust and its beneficiaries from wild market fluctuations and guarantees there will not be another year resulting in zero dollars going to education over the next decade.
The current formula was approved over a decade ago when the Endowment was given the ability to invest in stocks. Although written with the best of intentions the old formula was never tested for the economic volatility of the past several years. Simply stated, the formula did not work properly and education funding suffered.
After the urging of current and former State Treasurers, The Arizona State Board of Investment commissioned an independent Asset Allocation Study (available online at www.aztreasury.gov ) to suggest positive change to Arizona's Constitution. The result is Prop 118.
Arizona can be proud that our State Land Endowment has been protected while many other western states have squandered theirs. Prop 118 continues in this tradition by further protecting the Trust and providing needed stability for education funding. The Arizona State Endowment is a permanent endowment and deserves a solution that will provide permanent, long term stability for Arizona's future.
As current and former members of the Arizona Board of Investment, we support Prop 118 and encourage all Arizona citizens to do the same. This change of the formula is good financial management. Vote YES on Prop 118.
As Arizona's Superintendent of Public Instruction, I support Prop. 118 because it will bring predictability to the distribution of revenue from Arizona's state land trust fund. The land trust fund provides vital revenue for Arizona's public schools, and the current complex formula means that we have no way of predicting how much money will be available in future years. A predictable distribution from the trust fund will enable the state to budget its general fund dollars more responsibly, because it is less likely that we will over- or underestimate the distribution from the trust, and appropriate too many or too few state dollars.
Under the current system, we feast when times are good, and starve when times are bad. The method proposed by Prop. 118 will allow the trust to grow substantially when times are good, leaving plenty of savings to help fund our school system through difficult economic times in the future.
Please join me in voting "yes" for proposition 118, to put state land trust revenues to work for our most valuable resource, Arizona's children.

Arizona's education community supports Prop 118. It is a good fix that helps better fund public schools. It is not the silver bullet that will solve all the problems in our state as it relates to education, but more reliable funding from the State Land Trust Fund is a step in the right direction.
In 2000, Arizona voters created the Classroom Site Fund. This fund was established to direct money to teachers' salaries, classroom size reduction and dropout prevention programs. The Classroom Site Fund is supported by the revenue generated from the State Land Trust Fund and the State Land Department. The first $72.3 million is used in the general funding formula. Any money in excess of $72.3 million each year is deposited into the Classroom Site Fund. In 2010 and 2011, no money was deposited into the Classroom Site Fund. Had the new distribution formula being proposed in Prop 118 been in place, the fund would have received $38 million over the course of those two years.
AEA has worked closely with the State Treasurer's Office and the State Land Department to make sure this proposition is in the best interest of Arizona's teachers and students. Prop 118 guarantees money will be available each and every year. If it passes in November, Arizona public schools will receive more than $62 million. If Prop 118 is defeated and the current distribution formula stays in place, education will receive approximately $50 million. With the cuts that public education has endured, those additional funds can go a long way.
Arizona schools need this simplified formula. Vote "YES" on Prop 118 .

Prop 118 is a fair and practical way to smooth out earnings distributions from Arizona's $3.4 billion Land Endowment.
By avoiding the usual boom-and-bust distribution cycle, Prop 118 will help the beneficiaries of the State Land Trust Fund (mainly public education) to achieve a more predictable income stream year after year. At the same time, smoother budgeting over the business cycle will help beneficiaries during boom years to avoid developing unreasonable expectations about future spending growth. This is a common sense solution to a problematic funding formula.
Prop 118 is a rare event in Arizona politics: it's a win-win for all of the stakeholders, whether those stakeholders are government employees providing education services, or taxpayers working hard to support their families and build our economy.

Getting to know the culture of a city is to come into contact with the differences that populate it. If, on one hand, the "Marvellous City" attracts tourists for its natural beauty and beaches, on the other hand it's a city whose inequalities that separate its 6 million inhabitants, force you to take a deeper look.
The safety and organization of the most chic neighbourhoods of Rio de Janeiro contrast with the poverty and lack of rules of the poorer suburbs. Visiting the city is being aware of these contrasts, so the favelas (slums) have assumed such an importance that it is possible to go on a guided tour of two or three to know their nooks. Perched on the hills, spreading to several areas of land, they are now a hallmark of Rio de Janeiro, totalling nearly a thousand. The less impressionable tourists who want to know about this other world and have contact with these communities and their people, can embark on a guided tour of the favelas of Vila Canoas and Rocinha (the largest in Rio, with 200,000 inhabitants, where the elegant neighbourhood of São Conrado ends). If in the distance they seem quaint, the inside reveals a complex architecture and better explains some of the aspects of the Brazilian society. But we should also remember that most of the samba schools participating in the Rio de Janeiro Carnival come from these slums. Part of the profits of the visits is invested in community projects (see www.favelatour.com.br).

quote:Funny because we've run 100 plays several times the past two years and I've never seen players hitting the floor like LSU's. And if LSU's offense sucks so bad, then I don't see how they're unbeatable when they try hard. They scored 20+ on some pretty good defenses like Bama and SCar. Moreover, letting a team go out on national TV and not try sounds like a pretty serious coaching problem, which reflects as poorly on a program as having bad players would.

I am saying Clemson was way more pumped and invested a lot more into that game then LSU. If you read my previous posts I also said it was a big win and Clemson should be proud. If you watched the other SEC v. whoever bowl games the SEC looked flat and played without care while the other teams were treating it like a championship game. UGA v.Nebraska, Miss. St v. NW, USCe v. Michigan, and Florida v. Louisville all come to mind. Fact of the matter is whether you want to admit it or not the SEC is NC or bust and when other conferences play the SEC they treat it as a championship game!!! Which was the case with your wannabe real Tigers!
