" I am always on the search for great in-ear headphones, however I always seem to find the same problem, because they are in ear, they tend to have very small drivers, meaning there is never much bass, and in most cases the highs are also messed up in an effort to get more bass! So I am always on the lookout for in-ear headphones that have good bass, yet have a nice flat frequency..." --MyConnor5Review

"These headphones have powerful bass (comes with a lot of ommph) which is good and lets honest if your interested in these earphones main reason will be for the bass For listening to music such as Pop and dubstep these are very good as the beat/bass just comes alive.

" So after a day of somewhat abusive run in (free and impatient) and tip rolling, I can say these easily play in a realm at or above their $100 price point.

RHA MA600i Noise Isolating In-Ear Headphone
"Many thanks to RHA Audio for providing this free review sample. The MA600 is tuned as a V shape. For those who don't know what that means, a V shaped tuning means the treble and bass have been tuned to sound more forward and aggressive then the mids. End result, the mids tend to sound more laid back in comparison to the rest of the sound signature. Some good examples of gear, both..." --DigitalFreak

The Independent
A Carter County student will appear on a special edition of Kentucky Educational Television's "Education Matters" to be broadcast Thursday ahead of the public TV network's vice presidential debate coverage.
West Carter High School junior Alexandria Knipp was one of six Kentucky high school students tapped to take part in a panel discussion about the election and the issues important to them. The "Student Voices, Election 2012" program will air at 8 p.m. The VP candidates will debate at 9 p.m. at Centre College in Danville.
Other student panelists are Maya Craig-Lauer of Danville High School, Eltuan Dawson of Seneca High School in Louisville, Eric Hagan of Boyle County High School, Jason Jewell of Center High School in Louisville and Tia The of Lexington Catholic High School.
The show was created in partnership with Kentucky Youth Advocates and includes guest host Renee Shaw, the panel and a behind-the-scenes look at preparations and activities leading up to the debate.
Knipp, 16, is an active participant in the Kentucky United Nations Assembly, a program of the Kentucky YMCA Youth Association, and has a strong interest in foreign policy and international affairs.
"I usually state my opinion and I'm very open in my political interests and international interests," said Knipp, speaking from WCHS on Tuesday. She wants to study foreign affairs and would like to become an ambassador.
"It was an amazing experience," she said of participating on the KET panel. "I got to meet so many great people — students from across my state who had different views. It was a great experience to see students that are as interested in this election as adults."
"They really were quite remarkable. It was really quite interesting to hear them all talk. They are so engaged and so interested in all the issues. They are not just looking at the surface, they are really digging into it deep and doing a lot of their own research," said Nancy Carpenter, KET's senior director of education.
"We wanted to do something special for the election, given that the VP debate was here in Kentucky and at an educational institution, and we had been searching for a way to include the voices of young people in our series on education, 'Education Matters,'" Carpenter said. "About the same time, Kentucky Youth Advocates approached us about teaming up with them on a youth project they were sponsoring in conjunction with the debate. Out of these discussions came the idea of having high school students talk about the issues they're concerned about and that they think the candidates should be discussing.
"We are so pleased with the results that we hope to continue to incorporate student voices in our programming. They have a lot to say, and we would do well to listen."
Knipp said she will be closely watching Thursday's debate between VP candidates Joe Biden and Paul Ryan to see if foreign policy, particularly foreign aid, is mentioned. Although she identifies with the Republican Party and is leaning toward supporting Mitt Romney for president, what his running mate says on Thursday could influence her decision.
"I do believe it will affect my opinion," Knipp said. "If Biden comes in with an amazing take on point foreign policy and actions, and Ryan doesn't have much to say, that will really make me consider what is more important."
Knipp said although she can't vote in November, she would tell her peers, "Just because you can't vote doesn't mean you can't be involved. You need to know what is going on in your country."

About this Blog:
A daily digest of IT blogs. Richi Jennings curates the best bloggy bits, finest forums, and weirdest websites… so you don't have to. Catch the key commentary from around the Web every morning.
The legal wrangling between Apple and Mac clone-maker Psystar is heating up this week. Documents filed with the court on Tuesday show that Apple believes Psystar may have backers involved with the company and Apple wants to know who they are.
The amended complaint adds John Does one through 10, representing up to 10 more defendants that Apple can add to the lawsuit. Lawyers for Apple said the complaint will be updated with the true names and capacities of the John Does when they are known.
Apple sued Psystar in July 2008 claiming the company violated its copyrights and licensing agreement when it sold a computer with Mac OS X installed on it. Apples end-user licensing agreement forbids Mac OS X from being installed on non-Apple hardware.
The Cupertino-based fount of über-sleek but overpriced and hermetically sealed computers, pocket music players and touchscreen mobile phones wrote to the US District Court for the Northern District of California in San Francisco that it wants to add new claims ... and enlarge its existing claims ... said it believes others put the clone maker up to its tricks, and it wants to find out who they are through civil litigation discovery and sue them too.
All of Psystar's counterclaims against Apple have already been dismissed by the court, and Psystar stipulated to Apple's motion to amend its complaint because its lawyers apparently saw no hope of opposing that.
Psystar is now like a mouse at the mercy of a very angry cat. If others yet unknown are implicated in discovery, this case could get even more interesting.
The soap opera of would-be Mac cloner Psystar was already full of shady twists and turns, but there's a possibility Apple's legal team thinks there's some truth to a few of the wilder conspiracy theories out there.
Chances are Apple's just covering its ass in case it wants to sue the major investors of Psystar individually or even the OSx86 hackers that unwillingly enabled the company's dubious business. Either way, with all of Psystar's antitrust counterclaims dismissed and Apple adding new DMCA claims to its lawsuit, we've got a feeling things are about to go boom in Florida pretty soon ... this is probably your last chance to grab a piece of (semi-functional) history.
Apple alleges that it believes there are corporations and/or individuals behind Psystar, who may be added as defendants once Apple in discovery finds out who they are. Woah ... that made my eyes bug out.
Apple apparently believes that somebody else is behind Psystar, which might help to explain why a major law firm would take on what seems like a fly-by-night's case; also why Psystar has been so bold in continuing to sell its products. I knew this thing felt funny. As Alice in Wonderland might put it, "It gets interestinger and interestinger.
Psystar's only hope now is that it is not guilty ... I guess the moral of this story is don't mess with Apple's legal rights, because they will most likely fight to the death, scratching, kicking, whateve... But you know what? Psystar asked for it. And that's why there is another moral to this story. Don't be stupid.
Oh dear, I think Apples legal department is getting paranoid. After suggesting that people taking their ad literally were irrational, theyre now suggesting that a shadowy unknown may be behind the whole Psystar drama.
Good lord, how mysterious! Can they really think that someone like Dell for example, jealous of Apples increasing market share, would set up a shell company to sell pieced-together Frankenmacs? I think Apple needs a drink.
It does smell a little bit of paranoia ... but Apple does have its right to find out if its rivals are attempting to sabotage its business.
Jobs and Co. must have some pretty trustworthy leads if they are going as far as to include such an accusation in a legal document ... These John Doe suits have been used in the past, most notably in RIAA/MPAA anti-piracy suits.
The company will now be either found guilty or not on Apples own claims, while at the same time Apple will be working to uncover the identities of those who may be supporting Psystar. If these companies are revealed, you bet Apple will publicly expose these folks, and likely sue them too.
Psystar could very well be the physical proof, in the form of a desperate last-ditch legal test, that the Windows hegemony recognizes its impending doom at the hands of Apple.
If there is any justice in this universe, regardless of legal cases and their outcomes, Apple's destined to overcome the Windows hegemony's tasteless thieves and their armies of leeches anyway.
Never forget that Steve Jobs plays to win.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas Reviewed by Jeff Meyers (Movie)
In creating a fable about the Holocaust this question rises: Is this a topic that really needs further simplification? With The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, its hard to figure out just what the movie thinks its offering beyond the simple conclusion that Hitler and the Holocaust represent humankind at its worst. The story is told from the viewpoint of 8-year-old Bruno (Asa Butterfield), the son of a Nazi commander (David Thewlis) assigned to run Auschwitz. Sheltered from the brutal realities of his fathers position, lonely Bruno believes that their beautiful country manor sits beside a strange farm. Until one day he sneaks out and encounters Shmuel (Jack Scanlon), a scrawny boy on the other side of an electrified fence. Meanwhile, back at home, Brunos mother (Vera Farminga) discovers the awful scope of whats going on at the camp and slowly descends into depression, while Brunos older sister Gretel (Amber Beattie) turns her schoolgirl crush for a handsome soldier into a full-blooded embrace of Nazi fascism. Based on a childrens novel by John Boyne (who also scripted), its unlikely that parents will drag their kids to this self-described fable.
Days and Clouds Reviewed by Serena Donadoni (Movie)
Elsa (Margherita Buy) has always relied upon her even-keeled husband Michele (Antonio Albanese) to chart a steady course for their family. As she finishes the requirements for a long-deferred art history degree, he throws an extravagant surprise party in their sizable Genoa apartment, where giddy well-wishers heap praise on her accomplishments. With a few quick strokes, Italian filmmaker Silvio Soldini paints Elsa and Michele as prosperous and generous, worldly and sophisticated. Theyre none too pleased that only daughter Alice (Alba Rohrwacher) has forgone college to open a restaurant, and has moved in with her working-class boyfriend. That solid self-image begins to crack the morning after the party, when Michele confesses that hes been out of work for two months; squeezed out of the shipping company he founded 20 years ago. Horrified by his lies, Elsa nonetheless helps him deceive their friends, even as she fears theyll go broke before Michele finds another job. They also choose not to tell Alice, picking fights with her rather than admitting to any failures. The resigned Elsa and hesitant Michele begin to restructure, but even as they confront a steep financial decline, they cant grasp the idea of diminished expectations.
I've Loved You So Long Reviewed by Corey Hall (Movie)
The elegant Kristen Scott Thomas is Juliette, a former doctor newly released after a lengthy stay in prison for an unspeakable crime. The details of that crime get doled out cautiously, like tiny nibbles on a scone over a long brunch, but, in true French fashion, the film is about feeling and not incident. Juliettes younger sister Lea (Elsa Zylberstein) is eager to welcome home the woman she no longer knows but has idealized and feared for many years. Her family is a little less enthused, from her reticent husband (Serge Hazanavicius) to her adorable adopted Vietnamese daughters, who dont know quite what to make of their sullen auntie. Shes not sure what to make of herself, so beaten down and shameful from isolation she cant even begin to understand what feeling normal again would mean, or if she has a right to such a thing. But try as she might to punish herself, lifes tiny pleasures start to erode her walls, a cup of coffee, a relaxing swim, the energy of her little nieces, and the smiles of men who notice her beautiful features even if shes forgotten her own face.
My Name is Bruce Reviewed by Corey Hall (Movie)
The always-game star directs himself as a loutish, self-centered B-movie actor named Bruce Campbell, doomed to keep grinding out schlock monster movies just to maintain his small fame, his booze supply and his hefty alimony payments. In a plot thats equal parts Three Amigos and Scooby Doo, the professional faker gets enlisted to do battle with a real ghoul, the vengeful ancient Chinese spirit Guan-Di, whos also the patron saint of bean curd. After some horny Goth teens disrupt his resting place, the goofy, glow-eyed specter begins twirling his long white mustache and hacking heads off residents of a remote mining town, which is, of course, the perfect milieu for redneck gags, Asian stereotypes and an embarrassing Brokeback Mountain joke. Unfortunately, this intentionally crummy movie spoofing even lamer ones, slyly lampooning the whole notion of spoofs, is too much for even Campbell to pull off.
Quantum of Solace Reviewed by Corey Hall (Movie)
The Bond of our youth is gone. Daniel Craigs 007 is all lethal, all the time, a relentless killing machine. In the series first direct sequel, picking up shortly after Casino Royales bloody conclusion. Double-O is in a rage after the loss of his love, Vesper Lynd (Eva Green), and he opts to mask his pain the only way he knows how; wasting enemy goons and an expensive precision automobile. His boss, Judi Denchs refined M, needs his head in the game because an enemy agent has put fear into the oaken halls of MI6. So its off on a global mole hunt, with stops in Italy, France, Haiti and La Paz, Bolivia, with enough jumps to give a GPS nervous fits. Its all exciting as hell, but somehow the aggressively bleak paranoia of this new guy is already sooo Nov. 3, 2008.
Polish Village Cafe Reviewed by Todd Abrams (Restaurant)
Digging into a big plate at Hamtramcks Polish Village Café might have you suppose youre eating food prepared by somebodys Polish mother. Thats because, essentially, you are. During peak dining hours theres a steady flow of waiting customers first lining up at the bar and sometimes winding up the stairs and out the door. Most entrées run around $8 a trifle when you consider the asking price for a dreary meal at the corner suburban strip mall chain. In a space with old-style character, with a full bar, this Hamtramck staple serves a few pages of meat-and-potatoes Polish dishes and their accompanying sides. Impressive soups, Polish standards, "city chicken," Hungarian pancakes, mushroom crêpes, boiled ribs, fresh sausage in beer sauce, pan-fried chicken livers plus a whole other menu page of such daily specials as stuffed green peppers and sauerkraut in crusty dough. Smoking permitted; cash only.

We started searching on Petfinder.com for availiable puppies at local shelters. We searched for about two or three weeks and then we found Toad's picture. She was six weeks old and in a shelter in Tennessee. When we read that she was scheduled for euthanasia because of a lack of space, we knew we had to rescue her. She has been a great addition to our family; she and Turkey absolutely adore each other. She is a hilarious little dog. When she gets excited, she makes crazy hyena sounds.

UVA Exchange: University of St. Andrews, Scotland, Spring semester
You can be a tourist at anytime for the rest of your life, but you rarely get the chance to live in a foreign country for an extended period of time. I became immersed in the culture of the university, participating in its traditions, and building relationships with its students. Studying abroad gives you the chance to build relationships as well as improve your understanding of the world around you. For me, the major difference is in the end for a tourist what they leave behind is a vacation spot, but for me when I left St Andrews it felt like I was leaving my home.

Ford Windstar Problems
drohrer Posts: 37Could anyone here tell me where I might get a wiring diagram or schematic of the electrical system for my 98 Windstar GL? Every now and then my van becomes possessed. The windshield wiper light comes on the bell rings and the doors lock and unlock several times. Then it goes away. At other times the open door light comes on the locks won't work at all. I'd like to disconnect the sensors, but leave the power locks in place.
(Just for the record over the past couple of years we've redone the power steering, front rack, transmission, new engine, serpentine belts and alternator....)
Thanks for information.
groman Posts: 1I had the same situation with my 96 Windstar. After about 6 months driving like this, running pooly when warm and check engine light flashing after restarting a still warm engine, I fianlly took it in for service.
They found a bad fuel injector. Replaced it and now all is well.
Yup, same thing. Our '98 has groaned for probably 20,000 miles now. How much was your steering pump replacement? However I now find the steering has a tendency to stay on-center - it feels like there is a 'notch' somewhere in the linkage that I have to overcome before the van will start to turn. You ever felt anything like that?
We're looking into replacing our 1997 Plymouth Voyager (127K) ---------which has had MANY mechanical problems------- ($8800 worth of work done to it) with a 2001 Ford Windstar with 87K on it. We're not sure if it's the right move, though. It's at a small dealership in town for a very good price, but have you had to have a lot of repairs with your Windstars? Just curious because I don't want to buy another lemon. :lemon:
thanks for the advice.... we ended up not getting the Windstar.
Word to the wise though: Don't buy a Chrysler minivan!!! All their other cars are fine, but NOT THE TOWN AND COUNTRY OR VOYAGER. They're crap.
I didn't know Ford Winstars have all those problems.... maybe looks are deceiving! We loved the one we test-drove, but maybe there were some underlying problems. Thanks for letting me know! I know now to look for the Hondas and Toyotas! :shades:
Following up on my own comment about the Honota costing thousands more...
A 2001 Windstar SE with 87,000 miles has average retail value of $6287, according to edmunds. A 2201 Odyssey LX has average retail value of $8698. So the extra reliability costs $2400 in this case.
Meanwhile in the TCO area of edmunds the 5 year cost of maintenace and repair is $6987 for the Ford and $6640 for the Honda. So the savings is only about $350, due to the greater reliability. Note that the M&R costs are based on 2002 models, as that is as far back as edmunds goes.
Overall the average Windstar saves a net of about $2000, if edmunds data is accurate.
I think it is that you hear from those who have a $3000 or $5000 repair and not from those who do not.
Suppose one ford vehicle in 10 has a $5000 repair while for Honota it is 1 in 50 that has that $5000 repair bill, that translates to an average extra repair cost difference of $400 per vehicle. I think it is probably something along those lines is the basis for the difference in average repair costs.
If so, then you have to ask is it worth spending $2400 now to reduce my chances of possibly paying that $5000 later. It could be put this way...would you rather pay a sure $2400 now and have a 2% chance that you will have to pay an additional $5000 later or would you rather just have a 10% chance of having to pay the $5000 later.
There is an assumption that all Fords are crap and all Honotas are bulletproof. I have found very interesting reading on the Accord problem board here. There are people posting there about huge repair bills on relatively new cars, too.
The edmunds figures for repairs are averages and are supposed to based on cost of extended warranty for the vehicle in question. I'm not a fan of extended warranties but I wonder...what kind extended warranty could one buy with the $2400 savings from buying the Ford?
hault Posts: 124I agree with the analysis. A lot depends on how long you intend to keep the vehicle. If you have an extended warranty it helps also. The percentage of high costing repairs per vehicle would be nice to have before purchasing. The quality of all new vehicles is questionable. All the "plastic" weight saving parts have been disastrous in most vehicles. I wouldn't keep any modern vehicle past 10 years or 120,000 miles.
micelle Posts: 1Have a Ford Windstar 2000 with 108K miles. Runs in Drive, but would not auto shift gearup to higher speeds (max is about 25) unless I manually shift lower to gear 2, then it only runs as fast as 40. Check engine light also came on. Battery was weak bcos the van has been sitting for a while, but appears to charging back up.
Later checked transmission fluid and added some Mercon V. Runs a little faster in Drive, but soon started flashing O/D light.
After about 2hrs of resting the van, started the van, the O/D light did not come on again even when driving but the speed issue returned - runs in Drive, but would not auto shift gearup to higher speeds, runs as fast as 40 in gear 2. Check engine light still on.
Please advice.

Investigators from the have officially declared the cause of a fatal New Year's Day apartment fire as "undetermined," the city announced in a news release Monday afternoon.
The early-morning fire at the claimed the lives of five people: 32-year-old David Thompson and his four young sons, aged 12, 6, 4 and 2. Thompson's wife was the only person to survive the blaze.
According to the news release, Redmond fire officials recently received test results from Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) Forensics Laboratory in Maryland that determined the tested electrical samples did not cause the fire. The test results were the final piece of information needed to complete the report.
"We appreciate the efforts of all agencies outside of Redmond who were part of this response including the ATF, Washington State Patrol and Seattle Police," Assistant Fire Marshall Lynn Sjolander said in the news release. "Our thoughts are with everyone affected in this situation including the family, friends, residents, staff, and first responders."

I'm still away from finish but, I'm trying to build my first fluid layout. Unfortunately, I'm getting some headaches.
If you narrow down your window here, and you look at the three columns at the bottom over the white background, you will notice that, at same point, the headings overlap over each other.
Also, the same "effect" seems to happen to the gray button down the page. The text doesn't seem to go on the flow when you shrink the page.
I'm not sure if this IS the best result we can get, and if we must use media queries from here, OR if it's still indeed something that needs to be done so that this, pretentious fluid layout could became indeed, a true fluid layout, before, start digging on those media queries.
Please advice.

hypertext[hī′pər tekst′]
- The definition of hypertext is a word or words that contain a link to a website.
An example of hypertext is the word "Facebook" that links to the Facebook page.
(countable and uncountable, plural hypertexts)
hypertext - Computer Definition
Text prepared and published in such a way that it is linked together in a non-sequential web of associations that allows the user to navigate through related topics, from one document to another.The author embeds hyperlinks in the text that the user can simply click on to view the related document associated with the link. The World Wide Web (WWW) is a global hypertext system of information residing on servers linked across the public Internet. If this dictionary were in electronic format with hypertext, you could simply click on just about any hyperlinked word (italicized in print) and instantly view the definition of that word, without having to flip pages to find it. Also, the last sentence in this paragraph would disappear, saving ink and paper in the process.The terms hypertext and hypermedia are attributed to Ted Nelson, who, along with Douglas Englebart, developed the Hypertext Editing System in 1968. See also HTML, hyperlink, Internet, server, text, and WWW.
A linkage between related information. Hypertext is the foundation of the World Wide Web, enabling users to click on a link to obtain more information on a subsequent page on the same site or from a Web site anywhere in the world. Hypertext is the umbrella term for all links, whether appearing as text (word, phrase or sentence) or as an icon or other graphical element, the latter technically called a "hypergraphic." The terms "hypertext," "hyperlink" and "link" are also used synonymously. See hypermedia, live link and virtual hypertext. The term was coined by Ted Nelson in 1963. However, his vision was much more expansive than the one-way links of today's Web. Nelson proposed two-way linking and support for non-hierarchical organization (for more information, visit www.xanadu.com).

Kent has kindly invited me to comment briefly on the 'traffic' on your blog this month, and I'm glad to do so. What I have to offer are mostly questions, questions you may find of interest and/or bizarre:
- When the subject of theological inquiry is atonement, or salvation more broadly, it is right and proper that emphasis falls upon 'the saving power of God'. This emphasis is reflected in a good deal of the discussion so far, coming to expression in particular ways in the concern that atonement theories be rhetorically effective, contextually apt, and bear down upon actual ministry situations. Would there be any merit, however, in contemplating what else might come to the fore is the emphasis was shifted from the 'the saving power of God' to 'the saving power of God'? Continue reading

Taps for the Boogie Woogie Bugle Girl: Last Living Sister of the Best-Selling Female Group in Pop Music History Dies USA Today, YouTube
The last living sister of the best-selling female group in pop music history has died.
The lead singer of the Andrews Sisters, Patty Andrews, has died at age 94 in Los Angeles, USA Today reports.
According to the story, the Andrews Sisters ruled the pop charts in the 1930s and the 1940s. "[Patty] was the youngest of the group, which included LaVerne and Maxene Andrews, and her dancing and humorous antics made her a crowd favorite. The sisters were the best-selling female vocal group in pop music history, selling an estimated 75 million to 100 million records, and were in constant demand for concerts, radio shows, films and product pitches."
The article notes that besides the hit "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" -- later re-recorded by Bette Midler -- other hits sung by the Andrews Sisters include " 'Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen,' 'Shortenin' Bread,' 'Eight to the Bar,' and '(I'll Be With You) In Apple Blossom Time.' They also had hits with Danny Kaye, Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman and their bands. They worked most frequently with Bing Crosby, with whom they made 'Don't Fence Me In,' 'Is You Is Or Is You Ain't My Baby' and 'Accentuate the Positive.' "
The story continues: "But their influence went beyond the numbers, which included 113 charting Billboard hits, 46 of which made the top 10. They influenced a wide range of artists: Mel Torme, the McGuire Sisters, the Lennon Sisters, Manhattan Transfer, Barry Manilow and Christina Aguilera."
Here are the Andrew Sisters singing "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" in the 1941 Abbott and Costello movie "Buck Privates":

The story quoted Greene as saying: "You feel bad for Mark, but at the same time you want to win games. ... If you want to win games, you've got to try something." Greene says he texted Sanchez when he heard about the story, and the two are fine.

The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — TOWN OF TONAWANDA — The Ken-Ton Parent Association has completed a summary of residents' responses regarding the district's eight consolidation options.
"We have spent the last few weeks compiling questions and concerns that residents have over the impending consolidation project," Jill O'Malley, of director of the KTPA, said. "We also believe that much of this will be discussed in upcoming meetings, however, many individuals cannot make these meetings and wanted their points represented."
Last year, the district hired a consultant, the SES Study Team, to develop plans that would result in cost savings and better use of the district's many buildings. The team delivered its final report in April, and the options range from using all of the current facilities to closing numerous schools and significantly changing the configuration of the district. Since then, the district has received a great deal of feedback from concerned residents.
The KTPA included responses from parents, business owners, government and municipal agents and district employees. The report states that the most common suggestion was to wait to make a decision until at least one year after the closing of Jefferson Elementary.
"This would allow the district to assess the true cost savings associated with closing Jefferson, taking into consideration unexpected pros and cons," the report states.
Other general concerns include questions about how exactly the cost savings will be applied and if those savings would result in a tax cut for residents.
Parents also expressed worries about how children who receive special education will deal with adapting to a new school every few years and how the options will affect schools' specific programs, such as Roosevelt's Kiwanis Kids.
Others suggested closing the administration building, a move that wasn't evaluated as part of the consolidation study.
"Nineteen of 28 Erie County districts house administrative services within school buildings," the report states. "Although there would be a cost associated with moving the administration, many believe this should be evaluated."
Respondents also provided feedback on individual proposed scenarios. The report states that many objected to scenario H, which would result in $2,131,811 of savings from cuts in staffing, utilities, building supplies and maintenance.
Under that option, pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten classes would be held at Hamilton and Lindbergh. Grades 1, 2 and 3 would report to Franklin Elementary, grades 4, 5 and 6 would report to the Hoover campus, grades 7, 8 and 9 would be served at what is now Kenmore East High School, and grades 10, 11 and 12 would take place at Kenmore West. In essence, it would merge the district's two high schools — each with a distinctive identity that share a long-running athletic rivalry — into one.
"Losing one of the high schools was not well supported by any of the respondents," the KTPA's document states.
Residents also expressed concern about scenarios D and F, which would result in grade 7 being housed in its own building. Questions were raised about how the configuration would ready students for eighth grade and high school.
At the end of the report, the KTPA thanked the district for including the community in the process.
"In the end, whatever decision is made, we anticipate it will be a solution which takes into account the unique needs of the Ken-Ton community," the report states.
The process will continue Saturday, when a focus group will meet and rank the options. In late June, the community will receive the final SES study which will include the focus group summary.
The board will hold a special meeting July 23 to meet with the focus group and go over the body's recommendation. On July 25, the district will hold a board work session to go over each option in detail.
The analysis process will continue into the fall of 2013, and in late 2013, a preliminary analysis report will be issued. The final document will be released in January.
In February 2014, the board will vote on whether to adopt one of the plans.
"Depending on which scenario is voted on to initiate, if any, it is possible that the plan would not be effective until the 2015-2016 school year," the district's website states.Contact reporter Jessica Bagley at 693-1000 ext. 4150, or follow her on Twitter at @JessicaLBagley

Well, this is interesting. R.C. seems to believe that his best chance of improving the Spurs team is by exploring trades, instead of using the draft or free agency.
According to the weekend dime at espn: Sources told ESPN.com that San Antonio flirted with reacquiring the playoff-tested Jackson during the offseason ... and that Brown didn't oppose Jackson's departure. If that's not a sufficient hint, multiple sources consulted this week told ESPN.com that Wallace is generally regarded as Charlotte's only untouchable. That would have been interesting. Was this the backup plan if Jefferson did not resign?

The harsh chill of this year's winter left many areas battling heavy snow loads and icy road conditions while those home-bound by the weather dreamed of the spring and summer days ahead after the thaw.
Waning winter brought a boost to retail sales, according to the National Retail Federation, which noted a 6.2 percent increase in March year-over-year for stores selling backyard products.
"Improving economic conditions and consumer confidence should push consumers to return to spending habits this spring," NRF Chief Economist Jack Kleinhenz said. "Consumers released some pent-up demand in March after two consecutive months of harsh winter weather that not only hampered employment opportunities but also retail sales. We remain optimistic that retail sales will continue their positive march this spring."
Now, with the snow melt in full swing, retailers are hearing from their customers that they're more eager than ever to be out enjoying the warm weather.
And that equals sales on lifestyle products for their backyards.
So what items should a savvy retailer stock to increase their bottom line and entice sales from the customers emerging from hibernation who want to make the most of their backyard experiences before fall descends?
The easy answer is whatever adds enjoyment to the space. That could mean new toys and floats for the pool, or spa accessories like games and scents. Ancillary barbecue items could prove more popular than in years past, plus customers could need to replace outdoor items that were damaged from the unusually severe season, like patio furniture or their furniture covers.
Dallas and Los Angeles areas see increases, while Phoenix saw a loss.
