Winter Wrap Up Around the World

For some reason the Italian dub just struck me as...jarring to say the least. The German dub was pretty good except for Dash's solo, they were really struggling to fit the lyrics with the lines.
The Dutch, French and Spanish were really good ^_^ - October 6, 2011 at 9:05 AM
- Bloomberg said...
and as a side note, I'm glad I get the English version...hehe...
- October 6, 2011 at 9:05 AM
- James Corck said...
Well, that was cool <3
It shows what a great song this is since it got translated so well to so many different languages. Daniel Ingram is a Godly Genius <3 - October 6, 2011 at 9:05 AM
- TheSweetestBelle said...
That was a lot of fun to watch! I actually clapped at the end.
Aaaaaaaand stuck in my head. Every time. - October 6, 2011 at 9:07 AM
- Christy "Dame Helen" McFarland said...
That...was...TERRIBLE!TER :( Talk about disappointing, especially when I've heard the originals and they sound great. It's clear they were using the "karaoke" version and trying to match up the audio that was sung from the various songs, but the backing audio is out of sync slightly, so it winds up sounding distractingly off-beat.
- October 6, 2011 at 9:08 AM
- Alex C. said...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but will there be two spanish versions for this show? I believe there was already a pilot for a latinamerican version and there's the spanish (as in from Spain) dub of the show.
Although they might seem the same, the spanish from Spain (often called Castellano) and the spanish from Latinamerica are a bit different, mostly in some vocabulary and structures. Not always the Castellano dubs make a hit here in Latinamerica and the same goes backwards because of these differences. - October 6, 2011 at 9:10 AM
- supervanman64 said...
I thought they were decent...EXCEPT the Italian one.
Seems those people they picked can't sing. :I
And of course, original version is best version. :P - October 6, 2011 at 9:16 AM
- Zearfox said...
I thought the Spanish wasn't too bad, but I agree the Italian was really...really bad - October 6, 2011 at 9:19 AM
- root said...
Original is the best version. Although, I really liked french Art Of The Dress.
- October 6, 2011 at 9:20 AM
- Kanister said...
I love Netherlands but seriously, Dutch must be one of the ugliest sounding languages in the whole world.
- October 6, 2011 at 9:21 AM
- Saddlesoap said...
I can't speak for the other languages, but I LOVE the lyrics in the French versions of this and the other MLP songs.
- October 6, 2011 at 9:23 AM
- Zearfox said...
I can name some dialects of chinese that sound like Cutlery scraping on Dinnerplates... - October 6, 2011 at 9:24 AM
- Fuffelpony said...
I am glad that i watched the show before i have seen the German dub, its really bad.
Its nice for the kids that they bring the show to another countries but they could have tried to find better voice actors...
But i like the Dutch Dub <(^_^)> - October 6, 2011 at 9:24 AM
- Emperor Jewel said...
I enjoyed the idea, though at the very end the music and subtitles didn't match, and all in all it was fun, even if some of the voices don't fit the characters, but hey go who ever made this.
- October 6, 2011 at 9:25 AM
- 24af302e-ce6d-11e0-b6f5-000bcdcb2996 said...
It's crazy that the terrible Dutch version sounds good compared to the Italian and French vocals in this video. Spanish was a bit meh, but I did like the German voices.
The only part I liked in the Dutch version was Applejack's solo. - October 6, 2011 at 9:27 AM
- Ninja Unicorn said...
Dutch and French sounded cool!
Though why do I feel when it got to the chorus everything seemed like.. REALLy off beat?
Anyway ive been singing this ALL day XD - October 6, 2011 at 9:29 AM
- Nyerguds said...
I agree completely... unfortunately, Dutch Rainbow Dash sounds like Rarity X_x - October 6, 2011 at 9:29 AM
- Zearfox said...
Whatever, could be worse. I shudder to think what voice actors will they use to rape the show if it ever came here to Malaysia...ugh, Malay dubs always pick the worst voice actors - October 6, 2011 at 9:34 AM
- fReeztyler said...
Oh these italian voice-overs...
What have been heard cannot be unheard - October 6, 2011 at 9:34 AM
- Harwick said...
Wow... Italian Ponies just can't sing.
And did the music become unsynced to the vocals? Because things became a horrible mess as it went on. - October 6, 2011 at 9:37 AM
- ZtrydR said...
The Italian version was the worst imo. I really liked the French and German voices though.
- October 6, 2011 at 9:38 AM
- Madam L said...
English version is superior. I actually cringed when the Italian version started... eeesh!
I can't put my hoof on why, but I never seem to like different languages of show tunes. Disney and ponies? Nope, gotta be English.
(Says the pony that listens to opera in a multitude of languages and Vocaloids...) - October 6, 2011 at 9:40 AM
- nostromo said...
the italian vesion is bad but not that bad, the person who made the video probably fucked up something
- October 6, 2011 at 9:40 AM
- ManestreamMMR said...
@Alex C. You're right, i hope the latinamerican dub does a fantastic job, as they've done it with Phineas and Ferb, i actually like watching it dubbed instead fo the original in some cases, either way, ill have to wait until november
- October 6, 2011 at 9:42 AM
- waffle911 said...
I noticed the Italian and Spanish dubs were off-key, not just in the singing, but the music too! It sounded wonky in those bits. I think they may have sped it up in order to fit it within their alloted timeslots in those markets.
- October 6, 2011 at 9:44 AM
- Zearfox said...
@Madam L
Like Anime fans who always say "Subbed is better," the original language always sounds the best, a lot gets lost in translation. - October 6, 2011 at 9:44 AM
- Cznielsen said...
I just saw the Danish version.
Not perfect but it was alright.
Tried to capture it, but my hd camera died on me so I had to get fetch batteries for my old one and by that time the song was over, I did manage to capture som of the danish voices though in the ending. - October 6, 2011 at 9:46 AM
- Invi said...
haha i thought our german version was terrible but wth were the italians and spanish thinking while doing this song :D
- October 6, 2011 at 9:48 AM
- DeRockProject said...
So we can all agree something was bad. Why was it? Is it because of the video editing or is it already like that in the show or what?
- October 6, 2011 at 9:49 AM
- Cain.Is.Blogging.Stuff said...
This is the first website I've come on that hasn't got some form of Steve Jobs tribute on it.
I'm not moaning, it's just an observation I made. - October 6, 2011 at 9:50 AM
- Greif said...
A lot of the original text got lost in german.
Iam german, but I watch it in english. Much better - October 6, 2011 at 9:51 AM
- Helen said...
French is very good, I love the they have good french accents for one another and suit them nicely. German is okay, Spanish I find they all sound too much the same. As for Italian and Dutch... disappointing. Infact one of them they sound like they got kids to try and sing and they are so badly out of tune!
- October 6, 2011 at 9:53 AM
- kelzae said...
I would have liked it more if they switched the language when ponies sing "winter wrap-up winter wrap-up" instead of using only french for it..
- October 6, 2011 at 9:56 AM
- Seirei said...
Well I'm surprised that overall the german translation actually works pretty well compaired to some other ones. The Italian one specialy sounded terrible, I read alot about the spanish one, but that seems pretty okay for me. The French version on the other hand seems to be one of my favorites, and the Dutch one just sounds like the German one with throat cancer. :/
Overall the original is the best, but it's nice to see that the translations aren't as horrible as they could be. :D - October 6, 2011 at 10:03 AM
- jrk08004 said...
As a player of many instruments and a singer, I find it hard to listen this with the such a lack of synched audio. Despite that however, kudos to the creator and it's neat seeing the contrast (and the Italian flop of a job)
- October 6, 2011 at 10:04 AM
- nostromo said...
not edited italian version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73Ewa7BMmpo

- Tren said...
Coincidentally, the Norwegian dubbed episode of Winter Wrap-Up aired just a little over an hour ago.
The song was... okay, I guess? I doubt you'll see it be uploaded on YouTube, however. The Norwegian dub of MLP seems to be rather rare to find on the Internets. I guess us Norwegian bronies doesn't have the tools to record the episodes and upload them or something. :/ - October 6, 2011 at 10:17 AM
- MP said...
Oh god, usually italians make better dubs, but here...
As an Italian, I'm quite disappointed of that. The french version was probably the best one here. German and spanish were good too. - October 6, 2011 at 10:18 AM
- Neeshoof said...
Oh no..
I've been working on something similar for the last few days, but now, however it turns out, it will be viewed as a knockoff. Way to destroy motivation. But that's the internet for you...
As for this one - it fails to correct for a pitch shift in the Spanish (and Italian?) version. There also seems to be more than one track playing at a time, often not properly synchronized. And what's with the warped voices - some kind of out-of-the-box "karaoke" filter?
Overall the video (as in: graphics) was a nice touch, but the music felt rather unpleasant, and more like noise.
Good idea, but needs more work. - October 6, 2011 at 10:20 AM
- LightDasher said...
Is it me or does it sound like it's reverbing and echoey?
- October 6, 2011 at 10:24 AM
- Kelleth said...
As I Dutch person I have to say.... GIVE ME THE ORIGINAL ANY DAY!! Seriously we only have like 20 people here who dub from english to Dutch and it already felt redundant as soon as Disney and Nickelodeon popped up 10 YEARS AGO!
- October 6, 2011 at 10:34 AM
- Star Whistle said...
Sounds like they used children for the Italian dub.
- October 6, 2011 at 10:45 AM
- Delichon said...
French version is awesome, easily my favorite right after the original. They got girls with really nice singing voices and the lyrics roll naturally. Great job!
- October 6, 2011 at 10:48 AM
- TheAntiCat said...
Dutch Ponies are best Ponies. (I may be biased however.)
I'm shocked y'all haven't given the Dutch dubs a better chance. I mean, how often do we get to hear out Little Ponies say, "nay"? - October 6, 2011 at 11:03 AM
- Octavia said...
Oh, hush up everyone, jeez. It's for fun. Don't be so critical. It was a little off sometimes, by ah well. I still enjoyed watching it. It's fun to hear things in various languages.
- October 6, 2011 at 11:27 AM
- Jelfes said...
Am I the only one that hears the french part around 1:20, sounds like they're saying, "Give a fuck, don't server Allah," cause it sounds just like it to me. (It's the parts where they're saying, "'Cause tomorrow Spring is here.")
- October 6, 2011 at 11:43 AM
- hypnotix666 said...
5 different ways to love the song though I prefer the English original lol :)
- October 6, 2011 at 11:55 AM
- DulTek said...
Are the Italian and Spanish versions like joke, or something? lol
- October 6, 2011 at 11:58 AM
- TheVampirate said...
i wasnt a huge fan of the Spanish or the italian dub voices. then again you cant really beat the voice actor cast we have in english. still the french, dutch and especially german dubs had some great voice acting as well
- October 6, 2011 at 12:04 PM

Has to be my second fav episode but number one song from the show.

This video is being sung in the worst form of Esperanto that I've ever heard...
- October 6, 2011 at 1:44 PM
- P. Pony Ponyson said...
French and English are the only languages that I can appreciate this in.
Spanish in itself just disturbs me.
German doesn't sound right.
Italian sounds like gibberish.
Dutch sounds too harsh, even more so than German. - October 6, 2011 at 1:51 PM
- Anthony S. said...
What's with the audio? It gets outta sync, and everything sounds weird.
- October 6, 2011 at 2:23 PM
- Jimperz said...
Irony of ironies: Italian is one of the most beautiful of languages to hear in song (How can any brony who's played Portal 2 disagree?). Yet in this song it sounds terrible. The VA's can't sing well and the words don't even attempt to match the beat.
Ah well, Con Te Partiro is still as beautiful in Italian as Winter Wrap Up is fun in English. - October 6, 2011 at 2:41 PM
- iWolf said...
The German dub really had problems sticking to the original tune XD
It's only a matter of time before this song is in as many languages as the Bible :D - October 6, 2011 at 2:42 PM
- Condor said...
The French dubs were the best, but then the English ones came back on and I realized how awesome the VAs and singers are :D
- October 6, 2011 at 3:11 PM

When I heard Italian Applejack I wanted to punch a kitten. Holy cow.

Dutch version is best foreign version. Then the French one. =D
- October 6, 2011 at 4:34 PM
- Ish said...
Wow, that was... something.
I had to stop listening halfway :( - October 6, 2011 at 4:39 PM
- Gem said...
The off-syncness really bothered me, but other than that...
French and English are best versions. - October 6, 2011 at 6:17 PM
- PhysicallyPossible said...
DAMN! i thought this was going to be daft punk`s around the world and winter wrap up like mixed together...i am dissapoint :( now somebody get to working on it!

Cool idea, but the execution is terrible.
Dang it bronies. Do it right or don't do it! I already have the raw material to master an Euro Chorus mix but I lack time to master the 5.1 channel MP3 (and a preview youtube version with video)
Give me like two months to get out of this school hell and I'll give you something epic x_x - October 6, 2011 at 6:57 PM
- evelyn said...
....you guys realize there's two Spanish versions of the series.... right? There's one done in Spain and one done in Mexico. I really want to know which version of the song they used for Spanish
- October 6, 2011 at 8:23 PM

Who turned up the tempo? WAY too fast...
STILL no japanese version Q.Q - October 6, 2011 at 10:46 PM

I'm sure you could tell by the fact that one is in mexican and the other is in spanish, just as american english and australian are all seprate... - October 6, 2011 at 10:48 PM

And I thought german sounded nasty, that duch is..BLECH HORK HURF...

Dutch was horrible as always, French sounded semi ok and the rest was disappointing.
I'm glad that I watched this in english :P - October 6, 2011 at 11:50 PM

@Madam L
"English version is superior. "
Well obviously. No foreign dub EVER invests in actual singers when their voice actors aren't good enough for the songs. - October 7, 2011 at 1:01 AM

English is still way better, but I also liked the French and Spanish ones.

SOURCE Association of Event Organisers Limited
LONDON, March 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
The Association of Event Organisers Ltd (AEO) has today launched its new branding as a clear signal of its reinvigorated mission to serving the events industry. The AEO has redefined themselves as a much more dynamic association with a vibrant new team and aims to communicate these changes through the re-brand.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130118/588955 )
Karim Halwagi, AEO Chief Executive, commented; "As the key events industry association, it is important that our members know who we are and the nature of our goals as an association. Ultimately, they understand the key role the association plays in supporting them and the events industry as a whole. Pushing this in the logo was imperative to us."
Mr Halwagi also went on to say, "We want to send out a message that clearly defines who we are and where we stand - one that says we are an organisation that inspires confidence. We are the voice of the industry and we're proud of what we've achieved and what we do for the events industry."
The new logo is a more modern design, but maintains a traditional feel, and illustrates the core message of the AEO: to be BOLD, CLEAR, COLLABORATIVE and FORWARD THINKING. Along with the logo comes a completely redesigned website.
The new logo also shows a commitment to evolving as an organisation, as well as broadening its membership and activity scope to include, amongst others, Event Producers and Experiential Agencies.
Alongside the rebrand, the AEO will launch new initiatives which include a new category of membership entitled 'AEO Enterprise Membership' to encourage small organisations to join and enjoy the benefits of the Associations, as well as profiting from access to a renewed AEO Mentorship Programme.
Of great importance is the newly developed AEO-BPA Event Audit product. The new cost effective audit will provide AEO Members with BPA-audited attendance and exhibitor data for their shows, with the option to add demographic and other data for additional incremental costs.
"The UK exhibitions sector is big business and it is essential that it not only adheres to and embraces best practice but that we make it as easy and as accessible as possible for our members to do so," explains Halwagi. "We are confident our new partnership with BPA will achieve this."
The AEO plans further announcements of enhanced and new initiatives later in the year.
About Association of Event Organisers (AEO)

It is run by its members for the benefit of its members through an elected council of representatives, specialist working groups and a fulltime secretariat.

Letter to the Editor: D46 Board Member Reacts to Threatening Phone Call
Letter to the Editor: District 46 Board Member Shannon Smigielski writes an open letter to the person she said threatened her family in a phone call about the ongoing teacher strike. Another negotiating session will be 5 p.m. Sunday at Park School.
Please, leave my daughters alone.
This is to the man who threatened my daughters:
At 11:45 p.m. last night, Sat. January 19, 2013, you called my home. My family was sleeping so you opted to leave a message on our answering machine.
While I cannot write verbatim what you said because of the vile and abusive language it contained, I can paraphrase with accuracy since it remains on our machine.
"You are a (expletive) liar. I'd really hate to see what happens to your daughters at school when I have my kids (expletive) taunt them every day because their mother is a (expletive) liar. Settle the (expletive) strike."
First, you must know that the police were contacted and I have filed a report regarding your call. If their investigation leads them to you, I will press charges of harassment.
It is not ok to threaten ANY ONE'S children. If you don't like my choices, come speak to me at a meeting. You called my home and threatened my family. I will not stand by and allow you or anyone else to intrude into my home and hurt my children.
Second, if the police investigation doesn't lead them to you, I am offering a $500 reward to the person who notifies the police of your identity. Second only to negotiations, my purpose is to find you and have you prosecuted.
If anyone has any information as to who made the call to my home and threatened my daughters, please contact: Patrol Officer Frawley. Site Case # 13-2382.
Phone number: 847-223-2341.
Please, leave my daughters alone.

Please release the audio. Someone may recognize the voice of the person calling helping the police to find them faster.
3:04 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Disgusting. There's NO excuse for that. I hope you find him.
9:57 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
This is SHAMEFUL! I hope they catch this person, and put them in jail! Teaching your children to be a bully?!? This makes me want to homeschool my child!
3:06 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Unforgiveable. I used to be proud to live in this community. Now, my husband and I are looking forward to moving. To the board: you have supporters. You are looking out for the long term survival of our schools...not instant gratification, which is what our country has become "entitled" to. Shannon, no one deserves to be treated like this and I will pray for peace, strength and security for your family. Thank you for doing what you feel is right by our children.
3:22 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
No matter how anyone feels that this is being handled, this is absolutely horrible and disgusting! Is there anyway for the police to trace the phone number that called you? Perhaps look on your phone bill to get the number. So very sorry that something like this happened.
Jami Jakobi Oatsvall
3:31 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
That is absolutely disgusting. How dare someone threaten to have someone else's children taunted at school. Whoever did this is a poor excuse for a man and a parent. Not to mention a horrible role model to his own children in encouraging that kind of behavior. I hope he is found and persecuted to the highest level of the law. I am sure my name appears on this post and if my children start having any taunting issues at school let me tell you now you are barking up the wrong tree because I will not tolerate ANYBODY taunting or harassing my children.
3:40 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
What an ugly, disgusting thing to do! It clearly shows the level of immaturity and bitterness of this person. Man or woman, young or old, I pray you are caught, prosecuted, and made to stand at the corner of route 83 and center street with a sign around your neck saying " I am the one who left a nasty message on a board member's phone, threatening their family and children. Honk if you think I am a loser!
3:42 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
I've heard a couple of teachers have received threatening calls as well. Where's the reporting on that? This is horrible, nobody should be threatening anyone, but I have to also question why this is coming out in the press two hours before the board is meeting with the mediator. I agree, release the recording. Also, the call can easily be traced by so whoever made the call is a ding dong.
3:48 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Doesn't matter. It's all disgusting. Shannon, I am so sorry you had to experience that. I may not agree with a single thing you say or do, but my heart goes out to you and your family on this. I hope you can find peace.
3:49 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
There was no reporting..this was a personal letter to the editor. It was not the BOE trying to one up the teacher's union. No matter what side you are on, this is unacceptable! Being a board member is a volunteer ELECTED position, and don't forget there are 7 board members. No one board member is making all the decisions, and personal attacks on ANYONE's children is totally out of line.
You need to remember, this board member and teachers too, have their own children who go to our schools. Their children are also missing school, they are not doing this for fun or to stick it to the other side.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but as a community who must live in the aftermath of all this with our children still attending these school, you must act like the adults you claim to be!
Angela Sykora
5:34 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
We can't report on what we don't know about. If there are teachers who were threatened and have filed police reports as well, they are welcome to share that with Patch. As for the timing of this Letter to the Editor, there is no "agenda" behind that. It was e-mailed to me this morning, but being that it is a weekend (and I do not work 7 days a week and had a family obligation this weekend), I did not check my work e-mail until about 2:30 p.m. this afternoon. I posted Shannon's letter shortly after I read it. Thank you.

Unacceptable. I hope they find this person.

What is wrong with people? Grow up and act your age. Set an example for your child(ren). I'm in Springfield now, educating my son about Abe and our State while this is going on. I'm making the best of it.
Brad Faxton
5:01 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
That just ain't right. If there was a line to cross, that was it.
5:11 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Though I don't agree with the boards position, I am embarrassed that a member of my community would use such disgraceful tactics. Threatening children it's repugnant and serves to make the supporters of our teachers look irrational and cruel.
5:42 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
You don't know that it was a supporter of teachers...it makes whomever did it cruel..not look cruel...shame on them. I pray they get caught.
7:37 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
True, I don't know that it was a supporter of the teachers, but it seems a fair inference as they were threatening a board member, not a teacher or union rep. Also I agree that the callers actions were cruel, when I said that their actions made the supporters look cruel, I was simply saying that I hate to see us all painted with the callers brush. Civility and kindness will ultimately takes us farther than threats and cruelty.
Molly Cullinan
7:38 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
I truly feel sorry for your daughters...I really do. However, are you under the impression that your kids, being bullied/threatened at a D46 school, is any more important than anyone else's bullied/terrorized kids, who attend a D46 school? Because you're in the public eye, and are a school board member, and now you're, perhaps, using this incident to gain publicity, and thereby public sympathy for the BOE? My child was bullied at a D46 school for 6 months, and absolutely nothing was done to stop it, after complaining time and time and time again. Even spoke to the teachers, principals, and the superintendent...Nada. I had a nasty voice mail message from a parent too, should I have gone to the local newspaper as well? Although, I sympathise with your situation in terms of the bullying...it is surely wrong! However, please don't try to use this incident, and the current BOE/teachers union strike issues, to sway public sympathy, they are 2 separate matters.
Lennie Jarratt
7:47 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
From the letter, it doesn't appear to be about sympathy. It appears to be a public calling out of the person responsible. Publicizing incident like this should be done as it will lessen the chances of another incident. Anonymous callers rely on their anonymity. When that is gone, they usually stop.
In all rights you should have called the police as well. The best way to stop bullying is to stand up to it and let others know.
7:58 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Molly, while no child should be bullied EVER and there should be zero tolerance for it in the school and from the school...this incident is not about publicity. Her children were targeted and threatened by an ADULT!!! This is not about gaining public sympathy but calling this coward out and I hope Grayslake PD finds who it was!
Katie Osmon
7:53 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
I agree Molly! My kid, as well as a few others have been getting bullied on the bus for the past 2 years, nothing has been done about it, but hey, we're not on the school board, so, our kids don't matter, I guess. Kinda sad... Still, this whole situation is uncalled for and disturbing. I'm making the best of it and keeping my kids education going as best I can. He has workbooks and like I previously stated, we're currently in Springfield, IL, learning all about Honest Abe and our State Capital. ;) This isn't a vacation for the kids, they still need to learn.
Katie Osmon
7:55 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
That's a bunch of shenanagans Lennie. Anonymous people continue until they get caught.
Tara Strain
8:31 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Molly and Katie, to say the things you have both said above sounds to me like you should be getting upset with the people you told who did nothing, not Shannon and the BOE. The BOE has nothing to do with Shannon's letter getting published on the Patch. Shannon sent the plea for the public's help in indentifying this ADULT directly to the Editor. I have tried very hard to be as respectful as possible on these comments, but I have to tell you both that your comments above come across as bitter and intending to create more divisions where community is needed. As far as you kids getting bullied is concerned, I feel for both of you as a mama, and pray things are better now. If not, I say this sincerely, Shannon can help & will. She is a long time anti-bullying advocate for the children of D46.
Molly Cullinan
8:41 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
I surely hope it wasn't her intention. I admit, I don't know her, or the situation. However, I'm not sure what the motivations are, in this case, of the people involved, but I can tell you, from a personal perspective, that we do NOT have a zero tolerance anti-bullying policy in our D46 schools, it is a myth! I find it repulsive that anyone (parents/kids/supporters) would behave in this manner. However, I don't like the timing of this article, it has the air of abuse of position/access to media. I, also, feel it's safe to say, that the BOE and none of the teachers would ever condone threats or harrasment on either side. Bullying is alive and well, and being tolerated just fine in the D46 schools, folks...welcome to a non-BOE parent/child nightmare...monumentally sad, but very true!
Lennie Jarratt
9:04 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Parents from Woodland D50 are having the same type of unresolved bullying issues. I have been contacted by parents in Richmond Schools as well. They have had 2 suicides recently, at least one of them was due to bullying.
Second if think there is no bullying that goes on from unions during strikes or referendums you are unfortunately mistaken. I have seen it first hand and have recorded instances of it in the past. The more these instances are made public the better to help prevent them from happening in the future.
9:15 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Molly...access to media? If you want to write a letter to the editor I am sure Angela will post it for all to read.
12:27 pm on Monday, January 21, 2013
You are comparing kids being bullied to unions picketing? How simplistic can you be, Lennie? And if I'm not mistaken, your own wife has spoken against bullying programs in the schools. Oh gee, that's probably just another lie, right Len?
12:43 pm on Monday, January 21, 2013
Maybe you'd like to comment about Lisa's stand on bullying programs, and while you're at it, your belief of what a quality school is. As a well informed intelligent adult, surely you can tell everyone what your definition of a quality school is.
Angela Sykora
8:42 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
An updated statement has been posted on D46 website. Both sides are still in session. Board states it hopes for an agreement tonight. www.d46.org
Molly Cullinan
9:16 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Yes, Lennie. I agree. I don't condone bullying on ANY side of the aisle, or in/out of the schools, by parents/adults, or kids. Sadly, parents/adults can be just as culpable for this type of behavior.
Wow, that's really tragic to hear. It's impossible for me to believe, anymore, that these adults can keep my children safe, under any circumstances. I worked my way up the ladder all the way to the superintendent, and a school board member. Nothing meaningful was done...all lip service! This is standard practice, in schools, through out the country. Big talk, NO action!
9:19 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
BILL QUICK: "Any parent who sends their kids to public schools should understand that they are sanctioning the long term abuse of their own child. Sit them down in front of a computer screen loaded up with Khan Academy courses. They'll end up healthier, happier, better adjusted, better educated, and far, far more safe. Nobody ever got an STD, bullied, or shot through an online educational course. And no kid ever got harmed by predatory edu-bots that way, either."
9:58 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
None of this matters. If what Shannon says is true on it's face, it's disgusting and there is no excuse for it. IMHO...
This thread should be about the cruelty inflicted on Shannon and her family. It is indefensible and not open to any form of criticism, supposition or explanation.
This is serious business.
9:58 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Thanks to those of you on both sides who point out that Shannon is just trying to catch the adult man. (She is not trying to create drama nor sympathy.) I think it's obvious why that man called Shannon's house so late the night before negotiations. He was threatening her family and hoping to intimidate her so much that she would change her vote.
I don't think that Shannon's Letter to the Editor has anything to do with publicity. In fact, if you think about it, you will likely understand that fewer people will stand up to support her by their real names – or the BOE for that matter. It makes sense that such a deranged and seemingly unbalanced man might be likely to go after the families of whoever supports Shannon.
I hope they catch this disturbed man! Shannon, I'll pitch-in with $100 to add to the reward. Maybe other people will add money, too. I'll contact you personally on your D46 email so you know who I am. I don't want to use my name in case the unstable guy wants to target my family.
10:01 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
I'd go for that...but don't limit your search to a "man"...unless Shannon & the authorities can be certain of that fact.
Katie Osmon
11:22 pm on Sunday, January 20, 2013
Tara ~ I have filed complaints with the school and bus company. My son came home from school one day back in November with a rip in his jeans on his thigh and blood drawn. I called the school then and told them about it and this kid is STILL on the bus!!! What is it going to take to get this kid off the bus???
4:46 am on Monday, January 21, 2013
I don't want to seem heartless and do not accept any type of harassment in any way, especially when it involves childre. However, as Lennie suggested , show the tape and prove that Shannon didn't stage this. She has proven many times how dishonest she and the board are and now she wants sympathy! Sorry, not from me! Never cry wolf, Shannon! I will say god bless all the children that have been affected by this strike though.
6:48 am on Monday, January 21, 2013
Oh my word. You ARE a very bitter person indeed. You need to calm down and get over yourself.
9:45 am on Monday, January 21, 2013
It pains me to even respond to your post Mtnclmbr - it is beyond heartless.
My family is shaken to our core. I will never wish upon anyone the feelings this call has left my family with.
This call and message are very real. The police came to my home, listened, took down as much information as they could, and filed a report/case. Suggesting that I staged it would also include suggesting the GLPD are involved in that conspiracy. Note in my letter than I include the case number and phone number to the GLPD along with the officer's name.
All I am looking for is for someone, anyone who knows the man who called my home and threatened my daughters, to contact the GLPD, give the case number, and turn this man in. No one, NO ONE should ever have to go through what he has put my family through. I am not too proud to BEG the COMMUNITY for HELP so my family can feel safe.
I will ask again, if anyone knows the man who called my home, please call GLPD, reference case # 13-2382. If the police are able to identify the man through your tip, our reward is now $700.
I love Grayslake and despite anyones difference of opinion with me, I hope that can be set aside and my plea for help in identifying this man will be heard.
Thank you. Shannon Smigielski
6:45 am on Monday, January 21, 2013
What is wrong with people? Why so cynical? The fact of the matter is that SOMEONE made a threatening call to her home. The motivation here was to write a letter to the editor in the hopes of finding out who is responsible and ask for the communities help if the police cannot determine the person. For those who have children that have been bullied, I think that is terrible as well. But to say that the district does NOTHING to help resolve the matter is just wrong. Please, quit your negativity and move on!!! Geeeeesh!
7:27 am on Monday, January 21, 2013
What's also sad is that someone in that position has put enough doubt in residents' heads that they even question the validity of her claim and motivations. I hope that the harassing phone call was a one time deal and Shannon's children are safe. I've never attended a CCSD 46 Board Meeting, but with all of the comments that have been posted on the articles about the strike, It seems prudent that as parents, we hold both our teachers and BOE a little more accountable.
Pete Gardner
12:20 pm on Monday, January 21, 2013
Mrs. Smigielski, no one, regardless of position, conviction, beliefs, ideas or anything else should have their family threatened, especially their children! Its disgraceful that anyone come here and victimize your family again by laying blame on you. Shameful!
I am so so sorry your daughters have been targeted by a coward. I hope he has a big mouth and bragged of his cowardace. I hope anyone who knows him is courageous enough to contact the authorities. He needs to be caught so never to do it again. God bless you and keep you safe.
9:16 pm on Monday, January 21, 2013
Wow! Six years ago when we bought our house we researched school districts and believed that Grayslake had a great schools. Everyone we spoke with said Grayslake had a great community too. We have four in a half more years before my children are out of high school. I'm scared to think that this strike and all the negativity from people in the community is making Grayslake a town that families will want to move from and not move to. I know we're looking forward to moving.
Mrs. Smigielski I hope you find the culprit.
Marvin K Mooney

Wow, how embarrassing that our community has come to this and that adults would go after children - how pathetic and disgusting. We are not exempt from many wanting to exit GL not just bc of prop taxes, school strikes, but the uncaring of many and poor neighborly attitudes. Shannon, I wish luck in finding this person, and I can see why many don't want to BOE volunteer, this behavior is defin not worth it & I hope many are keeping their safety eyes out for her kids and talking with all our kids that BULLYING is wrong and even as a bystander, you should step up! The schools say they have a ZERO tolerance which when asked to put that in action, they bail out. So many students get threatened with weapons, violence, and harsh verbal abuse and much of the administration & parents of these kids causing this, just ignore, no responsibility, no care. Someone needs to revamp Ellen Corell's bully plan that went far to the wayside & some parents need to take responsibility for their kids and pay attention.
Marvin K Mooney
11:00 am on Tuesday, January 22, 2013
and wow that parent that made the threatening call to Shannon & her family, there it lies as with the majority of bullying...starts from the parents/homes. wonder what goes on in his home, what a terrible thing he is teaching his kids, DCFS should run a head check on him.

Don't waste your money on this!

With these pens,you definitely get what you pay for. We ended up throwing the whole box away as it was a constant battle to get them to write. We were spending more time scribbling around on scrap paper than what we were intending to use the pens for. It is better to spend a little more and have something you can depend on.

The fifth-ranked United States struggled to defend captain Cristian Savani, who had 19 points in the 28-26, 25-20, 25-20 victory for the sixth-ranked Italians.
U.S. setter Donald Suxho bent over with his hands on his knees and shook his head as Italy celebrated the win at Earls Court. And after shaking hands with the Italians, the Americans turned to applaud the many U.S. fans in the crowd.
The United States won the gold medal in Beijing, upsetting favorite Brazil 3-1. It was their third gold in men's volleyball, which became and Olympic sport in 1964. Russia is the only other nation with three.
Italy has never won the Olympic gold, but the teams has won silver twice, most recently at the 2004 Athens Games.

About this Collection
The database presents vital statistics of those who marched with the Mormon Battalion in 1847. It is alphabetically organized by surname.Listen to Susan Black talk about the database. LISTEN Note from compiler:: It has been my purpose in preparing this sesquicentennial compilation of vital statistical information to show my appreciation to the Battalion. Unfortunately, some of the statistical information recorded by the members and their posterity was inaccurate, conflicting, or incomplete. Where possible, research was done to alleviate this problem. On January 26, 1846 Brigham Young wrote to Jesse C. Little appointing him president of the eastern and middle United States Mission. In the letter President Young assigned Elder Little to visit the nation's leaders to secure aid for the emigrating Saints. "If our government shall offer any facilities for emigrating to the western coast, embrace those facilities, if possible. As a wise and faithful man, take every honorable advantage of the times you can. Be thou a savior and a deliverer of that people, and let virtue, integrity, and truth, be your motto--salvation and glory the prize for which you contend." On May 21, 1846 Elder Little arrived at the capitol for the purpose of securing the desired emigration aid. A suggestion made by Amos Kendall to enlist one thousand Latter-day Saint men to defend the country in the Mexican war was the key for aiding Mormon emigration. After deliberating on the suggestion and negotiating with government officials, Amos Kendall and Elder Little presented the suggestion to the President of the United States. On June 5, 1847 President Polk informed Elder Little that a decision had been reached to accept 500 to 1000 Mormon men in the military of the United States. That evening Elder Little, on behalf of the Latter-day Saints, wrote a letter of acceptance to President Polk. The emigrating Saints received word of the decision and acceptance on June 26, 1846 from Captain James Allen. At Mt. Pisgah, Captain Allen circulated information regarding the purpose and particulars of enlistment. Many of the brethren were inclined not to accept the call and regarded Captain Allen with suspicion. It was not until Brigham Young and other Church authorities used their influence that men began to enlist. "We want to conform to the requisition made upon us, and we will do nothing else till we have accomplished this thing. If we want the privilege of going where we can worship God according to the dictates of our consciences, we must raise the Battalion." By July 16, 1847 a total of 549 men had enlisted as soldiers in the Mormon Battalion. They were accompanied by approximately 33 women and 51 children. The Battalion left the Mormon encampments on July 20th and arrived at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas on August 1st. At Fort Leavenworth they received arms, accoutrements, and $42 in clothing money. Most of this money was used to aid the soldiers' families in the Mormon camps. By August 14, 1847 all five companies comprising the Battalion had left Fort Leavenworth for Santa Fe, New Mexico. They were under the direction of Colonel Allen Until his death on August 27th. Following his death, command of the Battalion was assumed by Lieutenant A.J. Smith--ill-feelings developed and many hardships for the Battalion soldiers ensued as a result of his leadership. He was relieved of command at Santa Fe and Philip St, George Cooke was appointed to march the men to California. Colonel Cooke ordered all women, children, and soldiers who were incapable of making the trek to California to winter in Pueblo, Colorado. Pueblo became the location for 273 Mormons during the winter of 1846-1847. The remainder of the Battalion proceeded on to California. They arrived within sight of San Diego, California on January 29, 1847. From San Diego, the companies were sent to various locations in California to secure the United States position. During the long march members of the Battalion suffered from scarcity of food, lack of water, poor medical advice, and authoritarian leadership; however, they never fought a battle other than an attacking herd of wild cattle. This fulfilled a statement made by Brigham Young and Church authorities. "We feel confident they (the Battalion) will have little or no fighting". The accomplishments made collectively and individually has left a lasting memorial to their courage. Their efforts evidenced that Mormons were loyal American citizens. Their enlistment gave the Mormons a justifiable reason to camp temporarily on Indian and government lands. The pay they received and the clothing allowance aided the impoverished emigrating Saints.
Compiled by Susan Easton Black. Appreciation is extended to Dean Blaine Porter of the College of Family Living at Brigham Young University for securing capable secretarial assistance and necessary funding for this compilation.

Partial roof collapse at Troy business investigated
Restoration crews in Troy are investigating and repairing a partial roof collapse at a business that fire officials believe was caused by over-pressurization of chemicals.
Early reports first described the disturbance as an explosion at Troy-based MGA Research Corp.
At the scene on 2807 Elliott Ave., the damage was far less severe. Troy Fire Department officials report that the incident is still under investigation.
The Troy business, billed as a Hydraulic Durability Test lab, is one of several throughout the Midwest.
"There were no injuries and no one was trapped under the roof," said Fire Lt. Chuck Riesterer Monday.
At the building, Lt. Paul Firth said "a lot of liquid" was on the ground at the building's factory in the aftermath of what some reported was an explosion.
A look inside the testing facility revealed a shadowed, hollow factory-type area. The power inside the testing area went out.
Fire officials at the research facility said the collapse was most likely caused by an over-pressurization of liquids that may have gotten too warm.
"There was a steam release inside of a test cell" at the facility, said Riesterer. "The roof of the test cell became dislodged."
An office area connected to the testing facility was occupied by staff, but no one was near the immediate area, he said. Continued...
"People were in the office, and said they just heard a loud boom," said Firth. "There was no fire; we're not digging that deep because it was more of a minor incident."
Riesterer said whatever the loud noise was caught enough attention that some staff members called 9-1-1, which is exactly what they should've done, he said.
"It was really a minor incident," he added.
Jarvis Property Restoration was called to the building to assess the damage following the dislodging. Regional Director Matt Jarvis said he — and the company — didn't want to give a comment on the damage until the assessment was complete.
"Right now, we're just concentrating on securing the building and doing minor electrical repairs," said Jarvis.
While some at the scene said chemicals involved were water and glycols — organic compounds that are part of the alcohol family — Riesterer said he could not comment.
"We don't have a complete hazardous materials inventory, so we can't release anything yet," he said. "A lot less is involved in this than we were led to believe."
At around noon, restoration crews were in the process of figuring out whether it was safe for staff to reoccupy the building.
MGA Research is a transportation industry partner that tests products for military, aerospace and automotive companies, among others. It has locations in Canada, Michigan, and five additional states.

Home >> Guide to Blinds >> Get Discount Blinds When You Order FREE Fabric Samples
Today, I'm going to explain how you can save money with an extra discount on blinds, when you order free samples from NewBlinds.co.uk.
To help with the blinds selection process we offer free samples of the majority of the fabrics displayed on our website. This allows you to see and feel the fabric, as opposed to relying on the digital image you see on screen.
The problem with viewing colours online is that depending on each individual's screen settings, the colour can appear different. For instance my brightness setting may be higher than yours, which would change the perceived colour!
Once a blind has been ordered, because they are made to measure, we can not let you return it if you are unhappy with the colour or style. This is why we strongly recommend that you order a FREE sample prior to ordering your blinds.
To further encourage you to order samples first, we currently offer extra mini-discounts on selected products to people who order samples.
When you receive your sample, it will come with a letter. On that letter you will see a discount code which you can use next time you order on NewBlinds.co.uk. The discount code can be entered on the basket screen.
Once you enter your discount code, the additional discount is applied to the value of the basket contents and to any further items added.
To order samples of any fabric from NewBlinds.co.uk, simply click on the "order sample" button on the fabric page, or call us on 0161 367 9013, with a list of the specific fabrics that you would like to see samples of. You'll receive them next day along with the promotional code, which will allow you to buy discount blinds online.

We are preparing a major remodel of the home we purchased. We have removed wallpaper in the hallway and guest bathroom and thats when it occured to us that what if there is lead paint in here? The house was built in 1955 and pretty much all of the walls are plaster. There is one main wall section that will be removed. What do i need to or don't need to do????? | |||
Alot Research lead paint safe practices for a starter. "Why isn't everyday Earth Day ?" | ||||
You can get lead paint test swabs at any home store. That will at least tell you if there is lead paint present. There are massive amounts of controls and regulations concerning lead paint removal. So many so in fact that the regulations are impossible to follow. The fines for improper removal of lead paint are equally massive - upwards of $30,000 per day with no limit. However, all those regulations only apply to a professional that you hire. If you choose to remove it yourself you can do whatever you want. Frankly, most of the dangers are blown way out of proportion - use a good filter mask and wear some coveralls and you should be fine. Jaybee | ||||
You should also know that lead is much more of a danger to young children (particularily babies) than it is to adults. That's because much more of the lead a baby ingests is incorporated into their rapidly growing body, and that lead typically accumulates in the brain where it's believed to slow brain development and result in lower IQs. An adult incorporates much less of the lead he/she ingests into their body because their body isn't growing any more. You should also know that since your house was built before the first latex paints were introduced in 1959, you plaster walls were almost certainly first painted with a linseed oil based primer and linseed oil based paint. At that time, I was common for people to move into houses with plaster walls, and then wait a month or two for the alkalinity in the plaster to subside before painting the walls with oil based primer and paint. However, what I've found in my own building, if the plaster had more hydrated lime in it, or the primer and painting was done a little too soon, the primer wouldn't stick all that well to the plaster. In that case, you MIGHT find that you can basically separate the paint from the plaster with a wide sharp wood chisel. Just cut through the paint with a utility knife and then use the point of the utility knife blade to lift up on the paint film over the plaster. If it's not sticking well, you'll be able to take the paint off the wall relatively easily with the point of the utility knife. Then, when room allows, use a wood chisel to take it off much faster. And, in my experience, some places will be just the opposite where you can only get the paint off the plaster with a sharp paint scraper, thereby creating a lot of paint dust to inhale. Several points the owner of every plaster walled house should be aware of: 1. The reason oil based primers and paints deteriorate and lose their adhesion when applied to a highly alkaline surface is because of a chemical reaction called "saponification". What happens is the strong alkali will convert animal fats and vegetable oils (like Palm and Olive oils from which the Palmolive Company got it's name) into soap. Exactly the same thing happens to linseed oil when you apply a linseed oil based primer or paint to fresh concrete, plaster or brick mortar, all of which are highly alkaline. That reaction transforms the oil into soap, and that's what wrecks the adhesion of the primer to the substrate. In my own building, when repairing nail holes, I cut a square through the paint around each nail hole and remove the paint from inside that square before I do anything else. If I didn't do that, then I could continue pushing a razor in between the plaster and paint layer to remove all the paint from the wall. By cutting the square, I limit the amount of paint I take off to the area of that square. 2. Concrete, brick mortar and lime based plaster all gradually lose their alkalinity with age. With concrete it takes about two years compared with 2 or 3 months with lime based plaster. The reason for this is because all these materials are made with hydrated lime(AKA: calcium hydroxide or Ca(OH)2) and it's those -OH groups bonded to the Calcium atom that make hydrated lime alkaline. But, CO2 from the air reacts with the calcium hydroxide to make CaCO3 (aka: calcium carbonate or "limestone") and a molecule of water vapour. As the hydrated lime in the plaster, concrete or mortar is gradually converted into limestone, the alkalinity of the plaster, concrete or mortar subsides to the point where it won't saponify an oil based paint any more. And, if you were to heat that limestone, it would transform into a white powder called "quicklime" or CaO. If you then mix that quicklime with water, you get hydrated lime again. That cycle is called the "Lime Cycle". http://www.graymont.com/what_is_lime.shtml (Never ever never mix quicklime with water unless you're wearing heavy leather gloves and you have a safe place to put the mixing container down on. The reaction between water and quicklime to form hydrated lime is so exothermic that you won't be able to hold on to the mixing container with bare hands. And, don't mix the two in anything except a ceramic or metal mixing container that can tolerate the heat produced. Back in the day, plasterers would mix quicklime in water at the end of the day to make the "lime putty" they'd need the following day. Once mixed, they'd leave the mixture to cool down in the wheel barrow overnight.) 3. Never replace plaster with drywall if you can avoid it. Plaster is very much heavier than drywall. Imagine you have a source of noise on one side of a wall and a noise "meter" on the other side of that wall. The "Mass Law" of accoustics says that for every doubling of either: a. the mass per unit area of the wall, or b. the frequency of the sound waves hitting the wall, the intensity of the sound wave measured on the other side of the wall will be 6 decibels less, or roughly 1/4 of the sound energy at the lower wall mass or noise frequency. So, heavier walls make for quieter buildings and greater privacy. But, human hearing isn't linear. We hear quiet sounds much better than we hear loud sounds. So, even though a sound pressure level meter will show a 75 percent reduction in the noise level, the apparent reduction in noise level to a person listening on the other side of the wall won't seem to be nearly as much as the meter indicates. Also, we hear sound in the 2000 to 3000 hz range the loudest, and so doubling the frequency of the noise from 3000 to 6000 hz will result in a greater decrease in the apparant noise level because our ears aren't as sensitive to 6000 Hz sound as they are to 3000 Hz sound. New condos and hotels that have 3/8 inch drywall hung on steel studs create noise complaints because people in neighboring condos or rooms can hear each other talking, making love and arguing. 1950's style plaster walls between $500K condos or $800 per night hotel rooms would prevent almost all of those noise complaints. Thankfully, almost all apartment blocks are built with concrete block fire separation walls around each vertical "stack" of apartments, so in an apartment block no one ever complains about the noise coming from next door, but only about the noise from the apartment above or below. If you live in an apartment block with precast concrete floors, you'd have to have a heavy metal rock band living above or below you to hear any noise from their apartment.This message has been edited.

short answer: if any of the paint was made before 1976, you have lead in your paint. so, you have lead in your paint. take all precautions. generate a negative pressure in the house with a big ol' fan to draw the dust out, wear N95 respirators, sand as absolutely little as possible, and use solvent or chemical paint removers (try the soy stuff, all the methylene chloride stuff eats your liver as quickly as paint) as much as you can. don't vacuum up the dust with a standard vacuum if you can get one with a HEPA filter, and especially don't contaminate your nice house carpet vacuum. brooms are nice. dump any dust outside in a bag, tie it, and check with the local officials to see if they need it dumped in a HazMat collection point. most communities have them monthly or quarterly now. and if you don't have to remove paint, but can instead repaint the surface, that's OK. new paint encapsulates the old stuff... until it breaks down. removal is permanent, but encapsulation is used all the time, too. the whole idea is, don't spread the lead. sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
Yeah - Thanks to the latest rules and regs you can't do this one. (Well actually, a DIY homeowner can - they can eat lead if they want to as far as regs are concerned). But, if ANYONE you hired stuck a fan in a window to aid in removing the dust from the house while removing lead paint, the fines would run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Far more healthy to follow the current guidelines: Completely seal the room to be demo'd, Turn off any A/C or air flow, Build an 'air lock' for any entry and exit to the area, completely cover yourself head to toe in protective gear and then proceed to die of heat stroke.

I agree with the post above. A huge draw fan is a big mistake. First you isolating the dust, while minimizing that dust as well. Then a complete clean up, and disposal also rank high on the list. But this is just the Readers Digest version. Working safely requires a good read or online homework, for sure. PS one addendum, the year the change over came into effect was 1978, but even that was sketchy as of then that current store inventory across the good olde US of A was allowed to be sold off, if I recall from my lead abatement classes, that is. So in actuality lead based paint was available long after that.This message has been edited. Last edited by: CommonwealthSparky, "Why isn't everyday Earth Day ?" | ||||
the pros win... oh, wait, there is no contest here. ScaryTown verse 2... EPA testing has found elevated levels of lead in lawns and gardens along major highways, from back in the old days when they amped cheap gasoline with tetraethyl lead. that ended in the late 60s. if you're a garden freak, you might want to test your dirt, too. any road where there was either lots of traffic, or lots of waiting for red lights, could be a source of lead. sig: if this is a new economy, how come they still want my old-fashioned money? | ||||
True about the leaded gas thing, for sure. The great news is that residual lead readings from auto gas burning has been decreasing every year since the introduction of unleaded gas. Heck, I seem to remember more from that dang course than I thought. Along those same lines painted scrapped off the outside of houses, [trim, soffit, etc.] does add to the lead content of soils. I still cringe when I see that old porch or garage door on grandmas house getting scraped. "Why isn't everyday Earth Day ?" | ||||
