DescriptionIf Pipe Mania were a platform game, this is what it would be. You have to direct an electric current across each level, by getting to some precariously-placed switches, and alternating their position. There are lots of bad guys trying to stop you (for a not-readily-apparent reason; maybe they're Green campaigners), and contact with them costs you a life.
The game's most novel feature is one I'm pretty sure I've never seen before – it's almost a gameplay interpretation of double buffering (the programming technique in which you have two copies of the screen, and draw graphics to the background one, swapping them once it's all done, to speed up play and eliminate flicker). There are two sets of platforms, one behind the other, and a simple joystick motion switches you between the two.

While always growing my bucket list I am also lucky enough to stripe a couple of things off every now and then. I try to make all my travels as memorable as possible and always try to travel to new and exciting places. I keep learning, I keep discovering and I keep running into new places and people that make my travels worthwhile.
I'm only 22 years old but thinking about the places I've already seen and visited definitely puts a giant smile on my face. I've seen so many gorgeous places, that making this list actually was really hard – but then again, it wasn't – some moments just last forever in your mind.
Today I am going to write down five places with you, places that had such an amazing and unique view that I can't forget them ever again!
The Grand Canyon – USA
I've never been so amazed in my life before. I am standing in front of the Grand Canyon – on top of the Grand Canyon. My eyes widen when I look down into the Canyon. The Colerado River seems to gently flow beneath me, but it probably only looks peaceful from so far away when it's actually wild and robust.
The Grand Canyon is the third National Park I visit in the United States, but it's nothing like I've seen before – nothing like I will ever see again. Here I stand.
Behind me an elk walks around, casually eating some grass, attracting a large group of tourists who all want to photograph the creature. She doesn't seem to mind. In front of me, above the canyon, eagles fly, and close to my feet little squirrels hop around, looking for food.
The Grand Canyon isn't just a canyon. It's powerful. Magical. Mother Earth at her prettiest moment.
It's amazing. It's the USA at it's best. It's something I won't see again in a long time – I stare, watch the sun set and return home feeling complete.

Lake Sørvágsvatn – Faroe Islands
What a dream to finally visit the Faroe Islands in real life. I've been wanting to go here for so long – now that I am actually here, it almost seems to good to be true. Our airplane lands at the tiny airport at one of the southern islands – our car is waiting. We drive to our first Airbnb and pass a massive lake.
'Is that the one?' I ask. 'Yes, that's the one.'
The next day I wake up, hop on my feet and put on my warmest clothes. One, two, three, four layers of clothes, and one very windproof jacket that is supposed to protect me from the cold. It may rain, or the weather might be gorgeous. You never know in advance.
It roughly takes us one hour to get to the end of Lake Sørvágsvatn. Or well, technically a lake doesn't really have a specific 'ending', however – this one definitely seems to have.
The wind gets stronger, the cold gets worse but the view gets better. We hike on top of a cliff, the toughest bit of the hike. It's steep and the wind doesn't make it any less difficult to hike up. I can already see the ocean though.
Turn around.
There it is.
The view I've been waiting for for ages. It doesn't disappoint. It's enchanting. It's everything I want it to be.

Ha Long Bay – Vietnam
Ha Long Bay was the reason I was so eager to visit Vietnam in the first place – it somehow feels weird to visit it first and to travel to Ha Long Bay after only being in Vietnam for roughly a couple of hours. Shouldn't you always save the best for last?
On the other hand it doesn't feel weird. I've been building up to this for so long now. I've seen so many pictures already, read way too many articles already. I just want to see it.
Nothing looks like we might get close to Ha Long Bay. We drive for almost two hours, from out Hanoi. We take a ferry ride of 45 minutes and then another long drive to take yet again another ferry. My jetlag takes over, I don't even care it takes so long – I can sleep now – to be awake at Ha Long Bay.
'Right, you can get out of the bus.' Our tour guide, an Australian backpacker who seemed to never have left Vietnam since arriving for the very first time, opens the doors.
I step out of the bus to be overwhelmed by the thing I see next.
High rock formations block my view. For as far as I can see, these rocks take over. Here and there they pop out of the ocean, making it look magical. It's quiet.
Our boat brings us to a private island. More quietness. Our home for the coming nights. It's perfect.
At night I go to bed with the most amazing view I've seen in a while, to wake up with the sound of the waves, crashing into the beach.
I don't want to trade for anything. I don't want to leave.

El Nido – The Philippines
I've never seen a place that is more lush than El Nido. I've heard enough about it, before visiting. I've seen enough photos. Now I see it for myself. Our mini van takes us from Puerto Princesa to El Nido. It's a bumpy ride, with long roads with an enormous amount of turns. All is forgotten when the van takes that one last turn. That one turn that takes us to El Nido, bringing us out of the dense forest.
I stand eye to eye with El Nido. Eye to eye with the beaches and the beautiful, romantic looking ocean. I am in love, right away.
The best spots in El Nido are hidden – in a way that the best spots aren't to be found on the main land. We chase them with a boat tour.
I conquer my fear for snorkeling. It's to pretty for me to be scared – it's to beautiful to not do it. Clear blue water surrounds me, colorful fish swim beneath my feet, the sun burns on my shoulders.
El Nido is perfect. I'm going to miss it.

Mont Blanc – The Alps
There is something magical about mountains. People come to rest when they see mountains. The view is mesmerizing. Always. No wonder the 'mountains are calling'.
I'm young when I visit the Mont Blanc. My parents bring me to see this mountain – one of the highest mountains you can find in Europe. Even though I can't really comprehend how special it is to stand on a mountain like this, I know it is special enough, so I enjoy the view, for as long as I can.
I breathe in the fresh mountain air and enjoy the calmness. The wind is strong, but it's quiet.
Below me I can see the little villages that are built at the foot of the mountain. Even though it's summer, and one of the hottest months of the year, it's cold up here. The Mont Blanc and her surrounding mountains are still covered in snow. A beautiful view that captures one of Europe's most beautiful nature sceneries.

I recently listened to a great webinar on the State of SEO and Internet Marketing presented by Rand Fishkin, CEO of SEOmoz and DHarmesh Shaw, CTO of Hubspot. In a nutshell, these industry wizards covered this years domination of Negative SEO that the Google Penguin and Panda updates have enforced in their algorithm for better search results. Throughout the presentation, they began to get more and more into Social Media, and the benefits these great platforms have to the current state of SEO.
As much as I enjoy staying on top of my basic SEO methods of on-page optimization, keyword/key phrase presence and brilliant site wide content, a great SEO marketer goes above and beyond and gets creative with their tactics.
This brings my to the purpose of this post. SOCIAL SEO
Why Social Media Matters to SEO
Let's face it, Search Engines know that everyone hangs out in Social Media portals, so the domain authority of the Facebook's, Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit etc.. are out of this world. To this point in time (SEO time), link building has been the driving force behind domain authority, well ranked sites and so on. This to me has not changed, HOWEVER, it is now really about the quality of links to your site, not as much quantity. Here is where Social Media is so valuable to your SEO strategy. People are so engaged in Social Media that accounts link together, smartphones constantly updating people, instagram photos instantly updating hundreds of your friends and followers at that incredible moment. Let's take a look at a few Social Media outlets and why they are important to SEO
I find Twitter fascinating in what it has really grown to become. When first heard of tweeting, it simply sounded like a Facebook status update. Nothing more, nothing less. Boy was I wrong. People are now using Twitter as a source of information, hash tags (#) to direct more specifically to that community of followers, as well as a connection to your favourite comedians and celebrities.
Throw away the term "Target Market", sounds too Markety to me (which is NOT a word), and throw in "Target Community", or "Target Audience" (which is of course valid marketing terminology). If you are avoiding sharing your articles and content through here, why?!
Now you can get very personal. Facebook is your network of friends (or people you met on a skiing trip that were nice and now you are FB friends). The benefit of a Facebook "like" is so valuable at increasing brand recognition, encouraging more social shares etc. These are your people! They like you. Share with them, interact, they'll tell two friends, and they'll tell two more, and so on, and so on.
Google +
People who don't want to start believing it, BELIEVE IT. It's common sense really, a search engine player who determines your rank enters the Social Media space, ya think they are going to ignore it's users content?
Google+ Results
The 5th result is an article on my search, with a profile picture and indication of how many Google+ profile are in the authors circle. Google has found a way to incorporate Social SEO into the way they evaluate sites and great search results.
Concluding Remarks
"But we don't have the time for social media". I understand, you have a business to run, clients to meet, customers to serve, people to hire, reports to develop, sites to build, product to stock, orders to process, items to ship, printer ink to change, pets to walk, kids to take to soccer practice, lawns to moe, bills to pay, yada yada yada…
Adding a Social Media Coordinator to your team is not a bad idea. My friends over at Outrider shared a very good article/counter article on the importance of a Social Media Coordinator.
Remember, Social Media is all about "Target Communities". Find your following, engage them, interact and be social. You shall be rewarded 🙂

Nonprofits Continue to Hire More Aggressively Than For-Profits in 2017, but the Gap is Narrowing
Nonprofit HR has released the results of its 10th annual Nonprofit Employment Practices Survey, which indicate that while nonprofits have been hiring more aggressively than for-profits for the last several years and will continue to do so in 2017, the gap is now narrowing.
According to the survey, 50 percent of nonprofits plan to hire in 2017 (down seven percentage points from 2016), while the corporate hiring outlook is the best it has been in a decade, with 40 percent of for-profit companies planning to hire in 2017 (up four percentage points from 2016 according to the CareerBuilder's Annual Job Forecast). This narrowing gap is due at least in part to the growth of social enterprise and purpose-driven business.
However, most nonprofits are not improving their talent and culture practices in order to thrive in the face of this growing competition. 64 percent of nonprofits surveyed reported they do not have a formal recruitment strategy, 81 percent reported they do not have a formal retention strategy and 52 percent reported they do not have a formal diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) strategy.
Key Findings from the 2017 survey include:
- Nonprofit vs. For-Profit Projected Growth
- Nonprofits have been hiring more aggressively than for-profits for the last several years, but the gap is now narrowing.
- 50 percent of nonprofits plan to hire in 2017 (down seven percentage points from 2016).
- In comparison, 40 percent of for-profit companies plan to hire in 2017 (up four percentage points from 2016).
- 64 percent of nonprofits do not have a formal recruitment strategy.
- 56 percent of nonprofits have no plans to change the way they source for talent in 2017.
- 28 percent of nonprofits cite an inability to hire qualified staff within a limited budget as their top staffing challenge in 2017. This was the most commonly cited top challenge among nonprofits surveyed.
- 81 percent of nonprofits do not have a formal retention strategy.
- 27 percent of nonprofits have plans to develop a formal retention strategy in 2017.
- 11 percent of nonprofits said they expected their total turnover rate to increase in 2017, while 59 percent said they expected it to stay the same.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
- 52 percent of nonprofits do not have a diversity, equity and inclusion strategy or program in place.
- 42 percent of nonprofits name balancing ethnic/cultural diversity as their greatest diversity challenge, while 35 percent list retaining staff under the age of 30.
"The results of this year's Nonprofit Employment Practices survey clearly illustrate the need for nonprofits to prioritize their people, and the talent and culture strategies that support them," said Lisa Brown Alexander, CEO of Nonprofit HR.
"With social enterprises and purpose-driven businesses experiencing tremendous growth, it is only going to get more difficult for nonprofits to attract and retain the top performers they need to advance their missions. The time for organizations to get serious about recruitment, retention, culture and human capital is now."

About the Nonprofit Employment Practices Survey
The Nonprofit Employment Practices Survey has been conducted by Nonprofit HR on an annual basis since 2007. The 2017 report surveyed 420 nonprofits nationwide (a representative sample of the sector) in order to provide a snapshot of current employment practices, economic trends and their implications on the nonprofit sector. Research addresses nonprofit staffing, recruitment and retention practices, including information on projected growth, recruitment strategies, budgeting and staffing challenges.

The more recent cognitive behaviour therapies include:
A practising cognitive behaviour therapist may use approaches from a combination of these therapies.
Today there is considerable evidence that cognitive behaviour therapy is a very effective therapy. For some problems research indicates that it is actually the treatment of choice.

The stock markets continued to rally for the fifth straight day on Mumbai as the benchmark Sensex soared by 208 points during morning trade on the back of consistent short-covering ahead of the expiry of August series of derivatives.
The market sentiment was bolstered by a strong global turnaround, buoyed by the release of a letter from US Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke assuring to take required steps to mitigate the adverse effects on the economy, arising from the financial market turmoil.
The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) barometer opened firm at 15,168.69 and later moved to a high of 15,200.81, a rise of 208 points over Wednesday's close of 14,993.04.
The 30-share index later trimmed the gains and was quoted at 15,122.65 at 10.30 am.
Similarly, the broad-based S&P CNX Nifty of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) jumped by 51.05 points to a high of 4,410.35 before being quoted at 4,388.05 at 10.30 am against previous close of 4,359.30.
The market witnessed across the board buying support, particularly short-covering by foreign institutional investors (FIIs) and operators on the concluding day of derivatives contract, brokers said.
They expected a long-term rally considering a large part of about 65 per cent roll over to derivatives next series.
Asian markets were quoted up by about 1.0 to 2.5 per cent during morning trade following a strong rally in Wall Street last night.

She's not so hotI mean, really. She always has that vapid look on her face, and she's really not that pretty. Besides, she was with Marilyn Manson - EWWW! Seriously, she was the slag he left the lovely Dita for. Certainly nothing to get excited about.
But clearly, Rose McGowan doesn't feel the same way. And really, when Rose was in her prime there were few women who were prettier. Sadly, Rose is no longer anywhere near prime - she looks distinctly worn out. But she hasn't forgotten the good old days - you know, like the days that Rose was the one banging Manson. And went to the MTV Video Awards with her ass hanging out. Literally. Oh, nostalgia.
But that was a long time ago, and Rose hasn't had an easy time of things. She hasn't done anything good since Charmed, and her love life is in the dumps since she wrecked Robert Rodriguez's marriage. As it should be. So it's no wonder if Rose is a little bitter. Even if it's a bed she did make herself. All the same, the puss on her face doesn't say much for her acting ability. She would've made a lousy Barbarella.

Ann Arbor Public Schools Board of Education regular meeting (September 14, 2016): Forsythe Middle School, 1655 Newport Rd
The regular meeting, starting at 7:00 PM, will begin with a special recognition of STRIVE, a Rotary Club program that works with Pathways students, and an introduction of new staff in the district.
An executive session originally scheduled at 5:30 PM for the purposes of attorney/client privilege and negotiations has been cancelled.
The trustees will hear several information reports: summer 2016 learning, technology, and facilities, as well as a back to school update from Superintendent Jeanice Swift.
A first briefing will be given on a contract recommendation for Pediatric Therapy Associates.
A second briefing will be held on the revised transportation Policy 3760. The revision allows for "space available" bus transportation for students. The service would be available to those students who live in the school's attendance area, but do not live in the school's transported area.
As this is the first Board of Education meeting of the school year, the trustees will review and give final approval of purchases authorized by Swift over the summer. The trustees adopted a resolution at their June 29 meeting to give summer 2016 purchasing and hiring authority to Swift.
Voting will be on the revised Policy 3760 and the 2016 summer purchases.
The trustees will take a board action to certify the Michigan Association of School Boards (MASB) voting delegates. These delegates will represent the district at the MASB Delegate Assembly later this fall. AAPS is allowed up to four voting delegates and four voting alternates based on the district's enrollment.
Board President Deb Mexicotte, Vice President Christine Stead, Trustees Patricia Manley, Donna Lasinski, Susan Baskett, and Andy Thomas are present at tonight's meeting. Trustee Simone Lightfoot is absent.
7:05 PM Swift recognizes the Rotary Club STRIVE (Students Taking Renewed Interest in the Value of Education) program, which works with Pathways students.
7:07 PM Swift introduces new leadership in the district. She introduces the Haisley Elementary principal Kelly House and Logan Elementary principal Will Wright. She also introduces Assistant Directors of Student Intervention and Support Services (SISS) Concetta Lewis, Tracye Johnson, and Lohren Nzoma. Rick Scott is the new Assistant Director of Physical Properties.
She also introduces the two new executive directors: Jazz Parks, executive director for middle level education and Paul De Angelis, executive director for high school education.
Quinn Strassel, AAPS teacher at Clague, Pathways, and Community, and parent in the district: wants to talk about bussing Ypsi School of Choice students in. Asks the board as they consider the proposal, for every benefit for bussing SOC students, there are costs he asks them to consider. He says they have the responsibility to be good neighbors, which was never more apparent, he says, than when the water main burst under Allen Elem. We are a community of privilege, he says, and what we do with that privilege matters. School districts across Michigan have been struggling. We need to recognize that the hard times have been harder for others. He asks them to delay the vote for another year to allow for more dialogue. He asks for a public forum, saying he'd be happy to work with them. He also asks them to think of implementing a cap on SOC students.
AAEA President Linda Carter: She gives a report on the start of the school year, from the perspective of the AAEA. The AAEA leadership has been delivering welcome packets to teachers around the district. First rep council meeting Monday, at 4:30. AAEA building meetings will take place 9/21 and every month thereafter. Unite, inspire, lead. Our students, our union, our future. *She receives scattered applause from across the auditorium.
Swift welcomes back students and staff at the start of the new year. She acknowledges the facilities work done over the summer. She also calls out the switch from the ACT to the SAT
Out of a possible score of 1600 on the SAT, state average of 1002, and AAPS average 1163. Skyline, Huron, Community, and Pioneer High Schools all made the top 20 in the state of Michigan.
Allen Elementary school update: the school opened on time at the temporary location of West Middle School in Ypsilanti. Swift thanks Allen Principal Beal and the Allen parents for their work. Allen building: the rehab of the building from the water damage is being worked on. The cleaning of silt from initial water damage has been completed. An initial assessment is underway. The district anticipates the engineering consultants' report in a few weeks. A construction crew demoed out the floor in the damaged area. Engineers took soil borings. Structural engineering, insurance adjustors, facilities have all been in the building. The completion of overall assessment will likely be four weeks yet to complete, says Swift. Weekly updates will be shared with the Allen community. In addition, Swift has asked principal Beal, the PTO leadership at Allen, and Dawn Linden, executive director of elementary education to host regular face-to-face meetings for the Allen community. the first of the meetings will be held this next Tuesday, September 20, at 5:30, location TBD.
7:42 PM Trustee Thomas thanks Swift and the Physical Properties department, saying that he's heard the buildings look the best they ever have. He also acknowledges the diversity in the high school and the success they had with SAT scores.
Performance: None
Planning: Stead says they haven't met yet, but the work they are looking to do: sustainability of their system, ability to maintain high level of education. Capacity planning, strategic planning of how they position their schools so they can thrive despite challenges from the state. It's important to her, she says, that they position the district so they can continue to attract and keep talented teaching professionals.
Governance: won't meet until October. Will be looking at policy issues and concerns.

Thomas confirms that tuition is charged for high school programs, either for credit recovery classes or for enrichment classes. Tuition is waived for students who have financial hardships. Thomas wants to make sure that students who weren't secure in their algebra learning could also retake the tuition-free algebra class, in addition to the students who didn't pass. Tuition is $150.
Manley commends the increase in number of students in the SLI program and the increase of the hands-on learning. Baskett asks how students were identified as needing summer school. Dickinson-Kelley says the students were identified at their home schools.
Stead asks about the budget for summer education programs, to make sure they are planning appropriately. She wants the board to look to making sure no child is left behind in the program, increasing access to more high school students who need it. Mexicotte clarifies that as they begin the budget process in the future, they look at how the summer education programs fit into the budget.
INFORMATION ITEM: 2016 Summer Technology Update
Merri-Lyn Colligan, Executive Director of Technology & Information Services, presents. She highlights the technology professional development educators received.
- Lighthouse classrooms professional development – a focus on blended education, combining both face-to-face and online learning.
- Second Annual Summer AAPS Technology Conference: 545 session attendees.
- Technology orientation for new employees
- Project Lead the Way (PLTW) staff increase
- PTLW training for all new and second year PTLW teachers
- STEAM labs – provided classrooms with enhancements for blended learning
Stead thanks the community for the passing of the technology millage in May of 2016. Because of that millage, the district has been able to move quickly on improving technology access, increasing PLTW to all the schools in the district. Both she and Manley are certain learning will increase because of the improvements. Lasinski is proud of how the district's staff is embracing this way of learning and teaching.
Blended learning: student directed learning, combining face-to-face learning with technology.
INFORMATION ITEM: 2016 Summer Facilities Update
Jen Hein, executive director of physical properties and facilities, says they are feeling some pride over the work they've done over the past few months in preparing the district's schools for the start of the new year.
Hein notes the custodial crew from GCA is fully staffed, which should help improve school facilities over the course of the year. She highlights many of the improvements across the district: playground improvements, painting, carpeting, hardwood floors, landscape improvements, roofing, ceiling tiles, and lightbulbs. 23 new buses (with white roofs) added to the fleet.
Mexicotte notes that much of these improvements were possible by the bond approvals.
The pops of paint color are "simply a beginning," says Swift. Her personal goal is to be on at least a Would like to be on at least a ten-year rotation of painting, if not a five-year rotation. Paint is not covered by the sinking fund – it comes out of the general fund.
Stead thanks Hein for the "yeoman's amount of work" she did in helping with the transition of the Allen Elementary community into the West Middle School space.
INFORMATION ITEM: Back to School 2016
Student enrollment appears to be slightly increased this year, says Swift.
Challenges: transportation
- slightly earlier bell times made routes
- higher than usual ridership
They are working to provide solutions to late buses, overcrowding, and increasing communicate and responsiveness.
The executive directors have been working with Durham to improve the issues of transportation. She expects many of the issues they've been hearing about to improve in the next 24-48 hours. She asks the public to call as soon as possible if there is a problem, making sure to note the specific stop.
Hiring: Class ratios look strong, but are still refining "here and there." While the district had about 90 teachers retire, they hired 174 teachers this year. The Reading Intervention elementary programs have been restored. Struggling early readers are able to get more early assistance.
Preschool and Young 5s: Preschool enrollment is up at Westerman, Thurston, and Mitchell. The Young 5s program has increased from about 30 students in 2012-13 to 235 in 2016.
International Baccalaureate (IB): Expect full authorization to be given in June of 2017 for Huron HS, Scarlett MS, and Mitchell Elem. Authorization work is on track. Pleased to show Mitchell expansion for IB – six classrooms. Now calling it the Mitchell-Scarlett K-8 International Baccalaureate campus.
A2STEAM@Northside: opened this year as a K-8 program, with just over 600 students. The old gym has transitioned to band and orchestra space and PLTW space.
PLTW Learning Environment: AAPS is the only district in Michigan to offer PLTW K-12.
Allen@West: students are in the new space at West Middle School. Staff and parents came together to make sure the school could open on the first day of school.
The 2016-17 welcome video, highlighting the district's focus on A2gether, is shown.
Thomas thanks Swift for reinstating the Reading Intervention program. He clarifies that about 84 new teachers were hired, in addition to the 90 new hires to replace retired teachers. The focus is on reducing classroom size at the high school and middle school levels. Swift says they hoped to relieve the classroom pressure overall by their hires.
Stead says A2gether is a great theme, no matter the reason why. It's the right unifying theme this year. She thanks Dottie Davis for a cool A2gether logo.
Mexicotte acknowledges that there are challenges they expect at the beginning of the year, and there are challenges they didn't expect. It's a testament to the staff and families that the start of the year has started off well.
FIRST BRIEFING: Pediatric Therapy Associates Contract Recommendation
Elaine Brown, Executive Director Student Intervention & Support Services, makes the recommendation to renew the annual contract with Pediatric Therapy Associates for $235,200. The amount only covers the costs of the physical therapists. Occupational therapists have been hired in as FTE.
Lasinski is pleased they are able to provide consistency with therapists.
SECOND BRIEFING: Transportation Policy
Mexicotte gives background on the policy change. Governance committee considered changing the policy to reflect the provision of space available transportation. It was brought up for a first briefing in July. Concerns brought up when discussed during first briefing: would there be space available, 1.5 mile walk zone. Discussion around if this service would be available to students who come into the district through SOC.
Mexicotte says the policy is clearly "space available." There have been concerns in the community, since there have been higher than expected ridership this school year.
There were some discussions that occurred between YCS and AAPS board members – YCS sees this policy as providing encouragement to their students to leave the district and head to AAPS through SOC.
Swift says they are currently working through a set of general guidelines that are careful and clear, but that are not yet specific. They would that would only result in extra seats available. Mexicotte says they may not move one more step forward based on tonight's discussion.
Thomas asks if the intention was to include SOC students, but not to include students who live in the district but who attend a different school through in-district transfer. "The in-district student is included; the magnet student is not," clarifies Mexicotte.
Thomas believes that it makes sense that if there were extra space on any of their buses, it would be prudent to make that space available once they have accommodated all who need the bussing. He addresses some concerns from the community: they are not going to be sending busses into Ypsilanti to take them into Ann Arbor. Buses will not be added to the fleet in order to provide this service.
Baskett would appreciate clarification on the magnet school component. Mexicotte says there was no expectation that the district would transport magnet students. Baskett says that when they opened Skyline, they promised students they would have transportation to help diversify the school. It seems to her not fair, that they would not offer transportation to students who are already here, but they would offer it to SOC students. Baskett has not been in favor of offering transportation to SOC students from the beginning.
Swift says there are some legacy routes that transport to Skyline and "have since the beginning."
Baskett asks for more solid numbers of how many students would use the space available bussing. Swift says they don't know what the demand would be yet, but they do know that in other districts, it is not a hugely used service.
Lasinski: wouldn't be adding any additional busses to do this. Not filling current buses to full capacity. wouldn't be doing it anywhere where a bus is at near capacity. No stops outside current attendance zones. Wouldn't be adding any routes to do it. Swift confirms all of this. Lasinski says she "missed the magnet piece." Mexicotte says those students had already decided they were going to attend those schools without those transportation options.
There is no legal requirement to bus, reminds Mexicotte.
Lasinski is amenable to Thomas's suggestion is trying it out for a year with in-district transfers, and then adding SOC students next year. If there's an empty seat on the bus, she believes, it should be used.
After robust discussion led by Baskett and Thomas, who both argued for transportation for magnet students, Mexicotte says they could add on to the policy, "those students who live in the school's attendance area, but do not live in the school's transported area, in-district transfers, and magnet students."
Manley says that if they're not going to change any of the bus routes or add any buses, she doesn't think this policy will be possible. She doesn't think they're ready to make this decision before they have more buses and better routes available, in order to provide transportation to in-district or magnet students. She also notes that when the weather gets cold, bus ridership further increases.
Mexicotte says it "really is a policy about access." She emphasizes that the space available won't be made on buses that are at or near capacity.
Stead says this is interesting timing. Transportation is an access issue, she argues. She's hearing there is a united interest in improving transportation from her colleagues. The commitment is around providing access and removing barriers. She says there is a cap on SOC students in the district – cap set at 5% of students.
Stead weighs some of the pros and cons: there is overcrowding on some buses. She would want to improve access for magnet and in-district transfer students. However, it's hard to watch buses go by with empty seats. At the end of the day, they are committed to improving access. She would like to see broader context for policy like this. If they were to do this well, it would add routes and costs, she says.
Baskett asks again about bus usage numbers. She doesn't see empty buses where she lives. Swift says it's too earlier to have that specific data for this year, and it won't be available until the end of September.
Swift says that if the board supports this policy change, it directs her and her team to look for seats available after issues of overcrowding were resolved.
Lasinski suggests an amendment to the policy: change "live in the school's attendance area" to "live in Ann Arbor Public Schools." She also asks they remove the sentence regarding SOC students.
Mexicotte says she's trying to support more students getting to school on the buses. She doesn't think many students would use this, but there are students for whom this would ease their way. If "there is no space, then there is no space."
Mexicotte asks the trustees if they are interested in passing with Lasinski's amendment or if they do not want to move forward with the policy.
Stead says she could support the policy, but they notes they have work to do as a board in revisiting issues of transportation as a whole. Stead wishes she knew more about the implementation.
Manley could support it with Lasinski's change, but doesn't think they're ready to implement it now.
Lasinski says she could support it and doesn't think the policy change would indicate a start date – it just allows the district team to move forward on figuring out how it could work. Baskett wants to make sure they could do it right. She wants them to take care of the students they have already committed to.
11:16 PM Mexicotte takes the policy off the consent agenda, opting instead to have a separate vote. There is a motion to vote on the policy.
The revised policy:
Policy 3760 – Transportation
The district shall provide transportation to and from school for students who reside at least 1.5 miles from their school of assigned attendance, or in other cases as required by law. The Superintendent may direct that transportation be provided in other cases for reasons of student safety or efficiency of district operations.
Recommended Addition:
In an effort to increase access and opportunity for all students, students may ride District school buses from a regularly established and scheduled bus stop on a "Space Available Basis." This service is available to those students that live in the Ann Arbor Public Schools' attendance area, but do not live in the school's transported area. Families interested in Space Available Transportation must apply annually through the District and abide by all regulations, rules and guidelines set forth under this policy.
The amended policy is unanimously approved by the board.
Swift presents the board with a list of some purchases that were made over the summer. The board authorized Swift to make purchases and hires over the summer.
Jill Minnick, executive director finance, breaks down the purchases based on the funds they came from.
- general fund $84,000
- bond fund, $592,648
- sinking fund $135,396
All second briefing items are placed on the consent agenda:
- summer purchases approval
The consent agenda is approved unanimously.
BOARD ACTION: MASB Delegate Certification
After no one volunteers to go, Mexicotte says this year might be a year AAPS does not send any delegates to go to the annual MASB delegate convention. Lasinski makes a motion to have Lightfoot, as the MASB delegate, attend the convention.
AGENDA PLANNING: None
Manley puts in a plug for Rick's Run for Kids 2016, this year on October 15. Proceeds from the run benefit the Rec & Ed Youth Scholarship Fund.
Thomas shares the loss of Fifi Norton, Steve Norton's mother. A memorial service at Glacier Hill will be held this Sunday.

Behavior Modification Programs for Deaf-Blind Children. Proceedings of a Workshop Held July 13-14, 1970 (Pineville, Louisiana).
Hammer, Edwin K., Ed.
Proceedings of a workshop (Pineville, Louisiana, July 13-14, 1970) on behavior modification programs for deaf-blind children are presented. James Lent discusses the principles of behavior modification and the habilitation of deaf blind children while Pat Aycock utilized case histories to consider shaping behavior of multiply handicapped crib patients. The effectiveness of using light as a motivator and reinforcer is mentioned by Mrs. Aycock. Dr. Thomas looks at certain behavior that can be altered by medical intervention. Dr. Dayan discusses some of the administrative roadblocks encountered when trying to initiate a program for deaf blind children. Throughout the proceedings, the need to call upon diverse resources to bring efficiency to the education of the children is stressed. Jack English summarizes the participant's presentations and draws lines through points brought up by more than one speaker, such as the problem of hesitancy among professionals and others to attempt to work with the children.

User review on Tata Tiago written by Karan Singh on 07 October 2016
Karan Singh's review on Tata Tiago Revotron XZ
Year of Manufacture : 2016 | Driven no. of Kms. : 550
- Pros: Mileage, handling, spacious, comfortable, looks. Infotainment
- Cons: Bit of engine noise Little lag in ECO mode
Waited for almost 2 month to own this car, but every moment of wait for worth it. To be frank was bit sceptical about buying Tata product after owning brands like Ford and Chevrolet. But do not regret any bit of the decision taken to buy Tiago. This review comes after a month of ownership driven through roads of DelhiNCR. (would be updating in upcoming time period). 1 Looks and Design Exterior looks and design is amazing. I found it far better than Grand i10 and now antiquated swift looks. Sheet used are heavey as well Bonnet and doors would give you evidence of it. 2 Interior I bought top model XZ, it is fully loaded with amazing Harman Infotainment, steering mounted controls, amazing display panel with very useful modes for instant average, trip mileage, time, odometer and beautifully designed led display for fuel and temperature 3 Drive Comfort the drive is pretty smooth, handling is excellet. Quite zippy in heavy traffic. Steering becomes very light at low speed for zipping through traffic and stable at high speed to give driving confidence. The confortable seats , smooth gear shift and clutch adds to confortness in driving. I drove from Gurgaon to Noida to west Delhi and back to Gurgaon. Almost 200 km in a day and didnt felt the fatigue of driving. 4) Performance It has two modes City and Eco. Engine performance as per 3 cylinder is adequate. However, there is bit lag at low RPM and Eco mode lacks power. But when speed rechaes mid range RPM performanc picks up. There is bit of sound from engine at higher RPM but gets easily ignored. Mileage is excellent, I am getting around 16kmpl after driving 500 kms in delhi traffic. Actually it has gear shift indicator and instant mileage on display panel if you stick to it then you would get excellent mileage. Its really value for money car and feels amazing everytime I drive it. Also, customer services have improved a lot , I bought it from Pahwa Motors,Delhi suggested by Autoportal and they gave excellent service and was very helpful with all my concerns and doubt.

My Independent Gas Station
I own my own independent gas station, which comes with a lot of positives and negatives. The positives, of course, include the fact that I have no corporate office that I have to answer to, nor do I have to answer to a large franchise. This means that I can conduct all of my business completely independent of anyone else, and all of my sales come straight to my business instead of trickling down through the corporate or franchise structure. Of course, with such a level of independence comes some down sides. For instance, if anything ever breaks and I need it to be repaired, I have to handle the repair and its costs all on my own. This can be a bit of a hassle, but it is the price you pay for being completely independent and owning your own small business.
Obviously, having a reliable gas station repair service California that I can count on to provide me with timely repairs is very important to me. For every minute that my customers are not allowed to pump my gas, I am losing a whole lot of money. This is why, from the very moment that I opened my business, I researched the repair companies in the area in order to find one that I would always be able to count on. One of the most important things was finding a company that would be able to handle everything from point of sale technology to the gas pumps.
Because I looked ahead and planned for the future, all of my repairs have been handled very quickly. My repair company is always there when I need them and they do not charge me a whole lot of money. It is nice to know that I am always prepared.

John Rich's "Shuttin' Detroit Down" vs. Rodney Atkins' "It's America"
Yes, both are simplistic and cliched. But I like 'America' and hate 'Detroit' and here's why.
"Shuttin' Detroit Down," says Rich, was inspired by the current financial crisis. Some stretch that was- the financial sitch has been front-page headline news for what, the past year? He portrays the CEOs who take big bonuses out of their government bailout money as bad people… again, this is some big creative leap?
So okay, that's what doesn't make me like the song. But what makes me dislike the song is when he says they're living it up big in New York while they're shutting Detroit down. For one thing, Wall Street isn't living it up. Wall Street took a torpedo below the waterline, in case John Rich didn't notice. And the hard working joe in NYC isn't living it up. He's got the same economic problems we've got everywhere else, on top of what his city suffered in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11.
When John Rich says "they're" shutting Detroit down, who is they? Did you see the recent sales numbers out of Detroit? Everybody's down like 30 to 40 percent in sales from last year… maybe the American consumer is shutting Detroit down. Have you seen the kinds of perks that the unionized auto workers get? Maybe the unions are shutting Detroit down. In any case, I don't think New York is shutting Detroit down. Rich comes off sounding like the very worst caricature of a paranoid, ignorant hillbilly, pissing and moaning about how the guv'mint won't get off the backs of po' hard-working salt of the earth folk like him.
Even the fact that Rich claims that John Anderson helped write this song doesn't make me like it any better… it just drops Anderson (who I really like, btw) down a few notches. Nor does his bringing up the fact that he campaigned for McCain score any points. The government bailouts that he's railing against actually started before the current Democrat administration took over, so Rich is kind of full of it on that account, too.
Now granted, Rodney Atkins isn't much more creative in "It's America"- he throws out all kinds of Norman Rockwell imagery, from front-yard lemonade stands to summertime fireflies to Chevrolet. But it's upbeat, it's catchy, and it sounds good. Some of the criticisms leveled against this song have been that it uses poor grammar and odd metaphors, such as, "It's America, it's a man on the moon." But if that's what you're going to judge a country song on, you might as well pack up and go home, 'cause good grammar ain't nobody's strong suit in any music on the radio. (See what I did there?)
Bottom line, while "It's America" certainly isn't going to blind anyone with it's brilliant and original creativity, I'll leave it on my radio. On the other hand, even a piece that features Kris Kristofferson can't get me to watch the video for 'Detroit'.

LAKE CHARLES, LA (KPLC) - From the traffic problems on Nelson Road to updated technology and security, the Calcasieu School Board is asking South Lake Charles voters for support.
It's a problem, but is it a problem people want to pay for?
"Parents get in line and it holds up one line of traffic on Nelson Road," said Calcasieu Parish School Board Vice President, Annette Ballard.
If anyone has driven near Prien Lake Elementary during dismissal time, it's easy to notice the backup.
"When school lets out in this part of town, the traffic becomes quite an issue," said Ballard. "But we do have some plans that will alleviate the situation for all of our citizens."
Calcasieu Parish School Board is proposing a District 34, 5 mill property tax.
School board officials said large enrollment numbers cause the traffic issues at not just Prien Lake, but other schools as well.
But the proposed tax goes beyond just traffic concerns.
"We have to update so many things," said Ballard. "Sometimes, a roof needs some help and so it's all part of just normal upkeep and it's very needed."
Like at St. John Elementary, where school officials said technology updates are needed with it, always changing.
Officials said it will also help teachers better research and implement Common Core, as well as give students access to the new PARC test next year.
"It would make certain that our students are prepared," said St. John Principal, Sabrah Kingham. "Technology-wise they could use it and it makes them very competitive for later on."
Lastly, school board officials said the proposed tax would enhance security at schools.
"We have measures in place," said Ballard. "The principals and teachers all know what to do, but there are things we can do as a physical plan that will make things much safer."
It's now up to the voters on Nov. 16.
Click here for full details on how much the proposed tax could cost and the exact upgrades for each school.

Berlusconi: "The media mostly leans to the left and there is a link with the Italian media that is mostly aligned to the left. There is a sort of link particularly with the Italian newspaper 'La Repubblica', that cultivates all these friendships and this chain is deployed against me."
euronews: "Is La Repubblica so powerful it influences The Economist, Liberation, Le Monde? Maybe you are giving it too much importance."
Berlusconi: "There is a circuit and they ask each other for help. They feed each other news. And the same news is taken up. That is to say: 'I'll publish a piece, please pick it up' and then it ends up as if it were the opinion of Liberation."

Hello. I'm Dave, a Web Developer from Scotland who likes to make cool stuff.
Web design started as a hobby for me at a very young age when the internet was a fascinating new trend. It quickly turned into a passion and the rest is history. I will often find myself spending hours researching the latest trends and have invested a lot of time learning new technologies to improve my skill set.
For the last 10 years I have worked for NHS Forth Valley, currently in the position of Webmaster and are responsible for maintaining and further developing the public facing website and its sub-sites while developing and maintaining internal intranet and various web systems to help improve efficiency across the organisation.
I have completed an exciting number of projects for myself and while helping others, some of which you can see in my portfolio.

Um vencedor foi selecionado entre 73 designs enviados por 17 designers freelancers.
D. C. Drug
D. C. Drug is an independent pharmacy located in Troy, KS. Our primary audience is patients age 50+. Our main goal is to keep things simple. We strive to take care of our patients, whatever it takes.
I am open to suggestions with colors - however, I can't have more than 3 colors when it comes to printing labels for prescriptions, so any designs with 3 or less colors would be great! My outdoor logo will be on the side of a dark-charcoal building, so a complementary color scheme would be great!
I'm looking for something simple and vintage-ish. And bonus points if you do NOT include a mortar and pestle - I have yet to see a pharmacy logo without one. That being said, if you have an awesome idea to incorporate a mortar and pestle, I'd entertain something original! A google search for antique pharmacy might be a good place for inspiration to also hone in on what I'm looking for. Thanks for your interest in helping our company!

The Union's claim in relation to the tax dispute was agreed to in a joint meeting with the Department and Public Employment Office on Thursday 11 July 1996 at 1755 hours.

Risk 1066 - The Battle of Hastings
Posted by APM on 27th Sep 2012
It all started so well with a welcome from the Chair of Thames Valley Branch and the 40th Anniversary of APM celebrated with a tasteful blue-on-white cake cut by the Chair of Wessex Branch!
Then Stephen Carver, pin-striped and positively glowing, stepped forward to deliver his highly successful (well all projects succeed) and engaging talk, or better entertainment, Risk 1066 The Battle of Hastings at dusk on 10th September 2012. One of the 68 members present posed in chain mail and helmet and parried Stephens spear thrusts by way of an introduction to the theme. The real moments of violence and, it must be said, applause, were saved for the deaths of the Danish usurper and North/South divider Hardrada at Stamford Bridge, then of our Saxon (or was he?) King Harold at the hands of the Norse (or was he?) Duke of Normandy alias William the bastard.
The costume violence was real enough in the hands of the Regia Anglorum trio gearing up for the massive re-enactment on 14/15 October. History in Year 9 was never this good but why was this performance happening before our project managers wide open eyes?
Waxing lyrical like a Saxon on mead Stephen, hotfooting from the Cranfield School of Management, outlined the three approaches to management and leadership, namely Hardrada, Harold and William obviously!!!
- Hardrada: Hard-core, adventurous, chaotic, scheming, going for it but in the end relying on luck to deliver a kingdom
- Harold: A man of hearts and minds, a stakeholder manager, a popular organised effective ruler with an efficient army that proved itself in a fast decisive battle after a four day march from London to Stamford Bridge
- William: Ultimately the conqueror but with a chip on his shoulder, proactive, a man who took planning to the nth degree but who observed the ebb and flow of the long days fighting (lessons learnt) and then took his calculated chance with a few chosen men on a decent bonus to see the battle of Battle (or was it) through. An achiever, but never Mr Popular, he continued to do things his way with kit castles (how very Nordic) and of course, his post Doomsday (or was it his) taxation.
In summary, a thought-provoking and memorable evening to thoroughly recommend. Now who had the last piece of that cake and are you Hardrada, Harold or William?
