Dual Climate Control
Hello all, I am a long time reader, first time poster. Your information has gotten me through several fixes and upgrades. My question is... I have a 2001 Silverado 1500 and I am very interested in putting in a dual climate control and I am wondering if it would be a plug and play situation or.... I just want one of the stock dual climate controls from a slightly newer Silverado/Tahoe (200-2003?). Anyone tried this? Or is this just not a feasable project. Thanks a bunch!

I think this is actually my favourite flash ever now... holy shit. I just finished my first watch of it, and I instantly favorited it, and double 5/5'd it.
It's sleek, smooth, action packed, emotional, kickass, and I dare say your animating skills have equaled the great lord Krinkels himself!
I cannot wait for a part 6! <3 LOVE THIS <3

To Baal0919, They probably injected him with some sort of super steroids or something like that, that had an extreme roid rage side effect. They might have also intended to put a mind control effect in, but,
snowball was about kick their asses and kill them, so they had to speed it up, causing Dust to go
crazy, killing pretty much everything in his way, including snowball. Maybe they actually intended him to kill snowball, and stay power crazy. But of course, because snowball was RIGHT THERE, they had to do it now, pushing in the incomplete serum. All in all, great animation, and great story. Goodbye Snowball, you will be remembered, you went out in victory. Dust completed your missions for you and is getting revenge for your death. Smoke is dead, Dust is fine.

Bankers List Foreclosed Properties
The down economy has brought with it a lot of foreclosed properties. The North Carolina Bankers Association has developed a website to help get this real estate sold.
Leoneda Inge: The new website is called REO Deed Wagon dot com. REOs are real estate owned properties owned by the lender, in this case, a bank. Brandon Wright is a spokesman for the North Carolina Bankers Association. He says their goal is to have as many as two thousand properties listed by the end of the year.
Brandon Wright: In North Carolina we're roughly at 230 properties listed on the site now, and we've only been up two months. So, we hope that number continues to rise and then continue to fall after it rises because we ultimately want the level of our REO inventory in the United States to come down.
Wright says other states have shown interest in REO Deed Wagon. The Nevada Bankers Association has already signed on.

Defeat Diabetes
Foundation 150 153rd Ave, Suite 300 Madeira Beach, FL 33708 |
Diabetes Linked to Bowel CancerPosted: Monday, October 03, 2005Diabetes is caused by the inability of the body to break down sugar in the normal way. It seems that the high sugar levels that result may also increase the risk of bowel cancer. If the results of our study are confirmed they would be important in developing prevention strategies.
Professor Kay-Tee Khaw The scientists tested a marker of the sugar levels in blood samples taken from almost 10,000 men and women aged between 45 and 79 and then checked their medical condition six years later. They found that people with diabetes - and those with abnormal glucose metabolism which could lead to diabetes - were more likely to develop bowel cancer. The trend was stronger in men than women. Lead researcher Professor Kay-Tee Khaw said: "The study shows that high sugar levels, even when they are below those of diagnosed diabetes, could be linked to increased risk of bowel cancer. "More research is needed but if the results of our study are confirmed they would be important in developing prevention strategies." Professor Khaw believes that both diabetes and bowel cancer may share common predisposing factors. It is already accepted that a high fibre diet and regular exercise can help protect against both diseases. Alternatively, hormonal changes associated with diabetes could promote tumour risk. The researchers focused on a chemical called glycated hemoglobin. Not only does this give a good indication of blood glucose levels over the past few months, it also provides a clue about the metabolic processes in the body that influence levels of insulin - the hormone which breaks down sugar. Around 35,600 people are diagnosed with bowel cancer each year in the UK. In men incidence rates have increased by an average of 1% each year over the last 20 years. Around two-thirds of cases may be preventable by changes in diet, including eating more fibre, and less fat. The research, by Cancer Research UK and the Medical Research Council, is published in Cancer Epidemiology and Biomarkers and Prevention. Source: Diabetes In Control.com. |

Dozens Attend Vigil in Evansdale for Missing CousinsBy Dave Franzman & Karen Bushanam, Reporters
EVANSDALE, Iowa — Hours after authorities announced a devastating find potentially linked to the disappearance of Elizabeth Collins and Lyric Cook, community members gathered in somber remembrance.
About 80 friends, neighbors and strangers huddle on the banks of Meyers Lake Wednesday evening --- a place synonymous with the girls' disappearance since they vanished while riding bikes in town. The girls' bicycles were found at the lake July 13, the day they went missing. Many at Wednesday's vigil gazed silently across the dark body of water. Several women tried to light candles inside plastic cups and protected the flame from chilling winds by covering the opening with cold hands. "We shouldn't be here. These were just innocent children," said Barb Collins of Waterloo. "These girls should have been left alone to start with. They should be home safe in their beds." At a news conference Wednesday afternoon, law enforcement involved in the search for Lyric and Elizabeth announced hunters had discovered two bodies in a wooded area. Though authorities have yet to positively identify the remains, friends and community members fear the worst. Officials also alerted the cousins' immediate family about the find. One participant, Holly Timmerman, said, "It wasn't the outcome anyone wanted at all. I'm totally shocked and very heartbroken--you just feel for that family." A number of people at the lake held candles. Some huddled in small groups on a chilly night to share their thoughts. One woman offered a prayer for the families of the two girls. Unlike past vigils, there was no mention of hope for a good outcome or faith in a hasty reunion. Rather, those who spoke asked for renewed support for the families of Elizabeth Collins, 9, and Lyric Cook-Morrissey, 11, and justice for the person or people behind their alleged kidnapping. Lorissa Wilson said this outcome was something many feared as time went by but it still hit hard. "It's hard to believe, I didn't want it to happen to the girls. They're too young to pass away," Wilson said. Those who personally knew one, or both, of the missing cousins took it especially hard. Mary Carroll found it difficult to put feelings into words. "It's hard, I remember seeing Elizabeth (Collins). You don't expect it for somebody so sweet and innocent." Many who gathered at the lake said the community now has to confront the reality. And all must continue to support the families and to work to bring those responsible to justice. Sarah Curl of Waterloo, who has been active in awareness efforts about the missing cousins, expressed gratitude for widespread community support. "Thank you to everyone who's shown up tonight and everyone who's shown support to the families of Lyric and Elizabeth," Curl said. "Now more than every they are really going to need your support." "Stay strong. Show your support," added family friend Jamie Mangrich. "My opinion is it's a coward's act but we are going to find them."

Air Jordan 1 '89 "Fire Red"
June 21st, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 2 comments
July appears to be the month in which this latest hybrid pair of Jordans will release. The Air Jordan 1 is obviously the base here, a base dressed up by all kinds of design details from the Air Jordan IV. And since we've seen the Air Jordan 1 grab at nearly every retro silhouette to release this year, is there any chance an Air Jordan V inspired one is on the way? Check back in with us on the regular to find out the answer to that, and in the meantime enjoy this quick video clip showing off the Air Jordan 1 '89 "Fire Red".

MeeGo Announces Handset and Core OS Hierarchies
Who does what at the MeeGo project.
MeeGo, the open source mobile OS jointly backed by Intel and Nokia, has been fleshing out some of the finer points of the project's governance and policy over on MeeGo.com. The people in charge of both the Core OS and the Handset Program were also named and their positions were fleshed out.
From the project's website:
The Core OS Program has the following structure:
Karl Gran manages the MeeGo Core OS Program, responsible for delivering all the platform functionality to meet the needs of the official MeeGo device categories.
Gavin Hindman is the product manager for the MeeGo Core OS, responsible for managing the content of the Core OS releases, in terms of requirements, roadmap and release descriptions, and for negotiating the content with the core program and its various stakeholders, such as other MeeGo programs and all Working Groups.
Sakari Poussa is the lead architect of MeeGo Core OS, responsible for architecture, day-to-day technical decisions, and architecture evolution in that area.
Alexander Kanevskiy is the MeeGo Core OS release manager, responsible of planning and producing the Core OS releases.
Tommi Toropainen is the QA lead for MeeGo Core OS
The handset program has the following structure:
Pierre Blouin manages the MeeGo Handset Program, responsible for delivering the reference UX for the handset category.
Sami Pienimäki is the product manager for the MeeGo Handset UX, responsible for managing the content of the handset releases in terms of requirements and of roadmap and release descriptions, and for negotiating the content with the program and its various stakeholders, steered by the MeeGo Handset Working Group.
Mikko Ylinen is the lead architect for the MeeGo Handset UX, responsible for architecture, day-to-day technical decisions, and architecture evolution in that area.
Petri Koski is the QA lead for the MeeGo Handset UX.
Chris Ferron is the MeeGo Handset UX release manager, responsible for planning and producing handset releases.
Martin Schuele is the lead designer for the MeeGo handset UX and MeeGo Touch Framework, responsible for the design and validation of the MeeGo Handset UX
MeeGo is governed by a Technical Steering Committee, which sets goals for the project and speaks on its behalf. Imad Sousou and Valtteri Halla serve as the project's benevolent dictators. The Technical Steering Group meets biweekly.
In addition to the Technical Steering Committee, hands-on development is divided up into teams that handle distribution development, manage programs, and uphold quality assurance.
There are also four working groups that are headed by delegates of the Technical Steering Committee. These groups are focused on one of four areas of the project and provide suggestions and expert advice regarding policy, requirements, and direction. Currently the working groups are, Netbook, Handheld, In-Vehicle, and Connected TV.
If the hierarchy looks familiar, that's because the MeeGo Project operates under the supervision of the Linux Foundation.

As an industry, word-of-mouth and online information is our strength, so we can turn our wish for an international campaign into a consumer-oriented website where parents, media, childbirth educators, and others will find reliable cloth diaper information. And, then we will direct consumers to you.
1. Design and implementation of ConsiderCloth.org. Build the new consumer hub to which all RDIA print and electronic marketing will point. Provide you, the sponsor, and RDIA direct metrics to measure the success and value of specific marketing efforts. Transition the currently successful Diaper Service Locator and Daycare Directory from the RDIA organizational website to the consumer hub. Build a hot-linked directory of cloth diaper Retailers, Manufacturers, Artisans, and Diaper Services. 2. Production and Printing of new Consider Cloth Kits & Stickers. These stickers will become the new calling card of RDIA. Design and printing of the new ConsiderCloth.org stickers, to be included in the new kits and distributed at events. 3. Travel expenses to attend events. Remaining funds will be used to attend events promoting both Consider Cloth Kits for childbirth educators and the ConsiderCloth.org website for consumers. Events attended in the past include CAPPA annual conferences and Lamaze 50th anniversary conference.

That means that in three yeara w^e have doubled our margins of safety. Over 440 part are of toughened steel. All safety parts are oversize. We use a wealth of Chrome-Vanadium steel. We aim at 200,000 miles of service, and two Mitchells already have proved they can give it. Costly Extras The Mitchell includes 31 featureswhich nearly all cars omit. And in this year's models yfe add 24 per cent to the cost of finish, up¬ holstery and trimming. So the Mitchells are the most complete cars, and the handsomest cars in their class. On this year's output, these extras cost us about $4,000,000. How We Do It You will marvel at the extra values which Mitchell cars include. But they are all due to factory savings made by John W. Bate. Mitchell cars—both bodies and chassis —are built in a mammoth model plant. Mr. Bate has spent millions to fit this plant to build Mitchell cars economically. In no other plant could cars like the Mitchells be built at the Mitchell cost. SIXES F. o.b. Racine $1150 Mitchell Junior—a 40-h. p. Six. 120-iiich Wheelbase F. o. b.

About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
Comments about Mahoney's Walnut Oil, 16-oz :
Used on all wooden surfaces for bowls and other hand turned items. Absorbs well into wood....seems to be pretty fast drying over night!
worth the price & finish
By the hoppe woodworker
from Poconos, Pa
easy to apply, cures a 100% in a day or two
A great product
By Old Guy
from Geneseo.IL
I simply wipe it on, let it set over night and re-apply as needed. Leaves a fine satin finish on every wood I have used it on.
Mediocre Finish
By AK
from Sierra Mtns, CA
Like most other oil finishes, this finish does indeed darken the color of the wood (amber). Unlike its advertisement, the product does NOT harden in 24 hours,(however, it does soak into the wood and appears dry). I let a bowl (kiln dried wood) rest suspended on tacks for a week at room temperature and the product was still not hardened. Proof: I set it on a paper towel for two days and it left an oily ring stain. I suspect like other natural vegetable oils, it will harden over time (like 6 months or a year) but hopefully will not become rancid like other vegetable type oils. In my opinion mineral oil would be comparable to this finish (without the ambering effect), however, mineral oil doesn't harden. Tung oil is probably a better choice.

Mahoney's Walnut oil
By JD
from Esperance NY
This is simply just the best product I have ever used. If you turn bowls or make butcher block tops or just own one & want to use it, this is THE product. NO hydrocarbons left to contaminate your food. Does not change wood color but does enhance the grain & hardens the wood. Once you try it you will wonder why you used anything else.
Good finish

my mother gave me a large set of 30yr old steak knives with wooden handles. The blades were in good condition but the handles were really dry. Soaked them over night in the walnut oil, now they are as good as new.

If you were hacking since age 8, it means you were privileged.
This post was originally published at Restructure!
Often, computer geeks who started programming at a young age brag about it, as it is a source of geeky prestige. However, most computer geeks are oblivious to the fact that your parents being able to afford a computer back in the 1980s is a product of class privilege, not your innate geekiness. Additionally, the child's gender affects how much the parents are willing to financially invest in the child's computer education. If parents in the 1980s think that it is unlikely their eight-year-old daughter will have a career in technology, then purchasing a computer may seem like a frivolous expense.
Because of systemic racism, class differences correlate with racial demographics. In the Racialicious post Gaming Masculinity, Latoya quotes a researcher's exchange with an African American male computer science (CS) undergraduate:
"Me and some of my black friends were talking about the other guys in CS. Some of them have been programming since they were eight. We can't compete with that. Now, the only thing that I have been doing since I was eight is playing basketball. I would own them on the court. I mean it wouldn't be fair, they would just stand there and I would dominate. It is sort of like that in CS."
— Undergraduate CS Major
Those "other guys" in CS are those white, male geeks who brag in CS newsgroups about hacking away at their Commodore 64s as young children, where successive posters reveal younger and younger ages in order to trump the previous poster. This disgusting flaunting of privilege completely demoralizes those of us who gained computer access only recently. However, CS departments—which tend to be dominated by even more privileged computer geeks of an earlier era when computers were even rarer—also assume that early computer adoption is a meritocratic measure of innate interest and ability.
Geeky. Black. Female. Android.

In the futuristic city of Metropolis, Cindi Mayweather, a.k.a. Android # 57821, falls in love with a human named Anthony Greendown. As a result, the Star Commission schedules for her immediate disassembly. Cindi Mayweather hides in the Neon Valley Street District, while card-carrying android bounty hunters are urged to capture her for a reward. The Droid Control Marshalls forbid the bounty hunters from using phasers that day; they can only use chainsaws and electro-daggers.
Cindi Mayweather is actually the alter-ego of Janelle Monáe, an underrated, multi-talented American recording artist, and apparent science fiction geek. Jason Heller of sci-fl/fantasy site Tor writes of Monáe:
Monáe herself has said how indebted to the SF canon she is: In interviews she's gushed about Philip K. Dick, The Matrix, Metropolis (a film she pays visual tribute to on the cover of The ArchAndroid), and most often Octavia E. Butler, a visionary writer whose ethnocentric SF clearly marks her as Monáe's aesthetic godmother. [...] Monáe isn't dabbling in SF. She takes the stuff passionately and seriously.
In her lyrics, Monáe alludes to Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, kryptonite, and thinks of herself as "something like a Terminator". (On the other hand, her lyrics also include some ableist (and nonsensical) phrases like, "shake it like schizo".)
From her first album, Metropolis, the music video for "Many Moons" is about an Annual Android Auction featuring a performance by Cindi Mayweather, in which Monáe dances erratically and does the moonwalk:
If you liked that video and want more highly-polished videos by Monáe, check out "Tightrope", which is not sci-fi-themed but has fantasy elements and gender-liberating dancing, as well as the trailer for The ArchAndroid, in which the camera pans around a futuristic city-scape that turns out to be Monáe's hat.

Playing with women's boundaries
Trigger warning: contains mentions of implied sexual assault.
Between around 2000 and 2005, mostly during my second and third attempts at tertiary study, I racked up substantially more than one year's worth of time in a text-based RPG. The particular one I played was a very heavily customised CircleMUD and had been going for quite a number of years at that stage.
Back then, I was an environment geek, or so I thought. It was during the second tertiary course that I learned the uber-basics of how The Internets worked, mostly from trying and (given my inexperience) largely succeeding in creating a website for a class project. The site was to document the species found in an ecological restoration site.
I learned HTML in the space of a weekend, and continued on to create the entire umpteen bazillion HTML files over the following few weeks. By hand. In static HTML. And frustrating the hell out of the teacher who could not get over my use of Notepad as my preferred way to edit HTML files. You really do not want to know what she wanted me to use.
All the while I was doing this, I was spending my spare time smiting the living daylights out of textually represented orcs, goblins, trolls and so forth, doing quest tasks, and generally having a fun time. So much fun that I started contributing to the game by making zones — new lands full of things to smite to shit, and be smited by.
I was prolific in my zone building. I tidied several orphaned zones up to start with, then I earned the privilege of being able to add completely new zones and expand one of the adopted zones to be a whole new area which was richly scripted. I moderated the communications channels, and helped form policies. I had a penchant for running weekly quests and all this meant that by the time I left, I ranked moderately in the deity hierarchy and knew how to code.
There was a small group of regulars who were women. That is, women in Real Life. To say we were "sought after" would be an understatement. To say that some of the dudes didn't know boundaries is probably a larger one. At least once I had someone attempt to enact a caveman mating ritual. For real. Using a knock-out spell and the "R" word and everything. It was awful, but thankfully my protests were heard and the asshole was banned for a significant period of time and learned from his mistake.
Unfortunately, there was not always this level of understanding.
Years later, towards the end of my playing days, there was an individual who developed an obsession with myself and one of the other deity women. He abused the messaging services within the game, and when he realised that we had set him to ignore on all fronts, he proceeded to abuse scripted things within the game such as the florists, and out-of-game contact methods like email, to send us things. Awful things. Like links to pictures of hysteria machines saying how fun they would be for us. The higher deities were aware, and some of them did their best to spare us from the harassment, banning him when things got bad. At one point, the individual even posted a hate website to try slut-shame our characters.
Then, one day, the asshole appeared online as a deity himself. We could no longer avoid him, as he too was now a deity and impervious to ignore filters. What the hell was happening?!
It turns out that this little freak had befriended the administrator's fiancée, and then the admin. They had decided that since we'd never taken our complaints to the admin himself until the promotion — just the deities above our own rank — that they didn't have to care. We were told that we were just making stuff up for the sake of spite, then we were reprimanded rather fiercely by the fiancée for getting angry at her for defending the asshole.
I tried to hang around for a while, and even tried to continue playing under the guise of an alternate character. Alas, the fun was no longer there.

Geek culture stereotypes and women's responses
Links to Lisa Grossman's Of Geeks and Girls have been turning up everywhere. She's recounting work by Sapna Cheryan asking women about their interest in computing, in their case rooms that are decorated such that "Star Wars posters adorned the walls, discarded computer parts and cans of Coke clustered on a table" and showing that they are much less likely to agree that they have any interest in computer science. (Grossman does not report how men responded: surely Cheryan's work used male subjects as well?)
The article goes on to caution though that while geek culture stereotypes seem to alienate women to some degree, dismantling the whole culture is not the solution:
But what about the women who do think like computer scientists? What of the girl geeks?
Cheryan has given talks where the audience doubted the existence of girl geeks. She's also given talks to girl geeks. There, she has received responses such as, "I'm a female engineer, and I like Star Trek! What are you trying to say?†She explains that her studies aren't supposed to give a picture of what computer scientists are actually like. The geek room is a caricature. "We couldn't have found a room in the CS building that really looked like that,†she says. But the perception it captures is real.
It's a fairly frequent response to geek feminism to argue that it's an attempt to destroy geek culture, or at best that it's a zero sum game: the number of women who would join a more feminist geek culture would be equalled by the number of men who would leave; occasionally this argument essentially boils down to "I'm here to get the hell away from women" but more commonly it's along the lines of "I'm here to get the hell away from mainstream social norms, I like the social norms in geekdom, you're trying to turn them into mainstream social norms, ew." This reminds me of that response, but from women. We're here for the geekdom. We talk about what we want to change; we should also talk about what we want to keep.
You're welcome to discuss Cheryan's work and Grossman's take on it in general in comments here (worth remembering though that we generally don't have perfect insight into our prejudices, so you may or may not be more turned off by discarded computer parts than you think), but I specifically wanted to ask women who see themselves as part of geek culture, or a geek culture, what are the parts of it that you enjoy and that you're hoping to open up to more women?

Hey, I'm free now for a few hours if you'd like to play. I'll be on PO under 'problems' we can arrange the matches and so forth. Peace
Hi, when are you planning on playing against Problems for DPP Fest? I haven't seen many VMs between you two in a while and the weekend passed. If you could VM him again and try to set up a time that would be great. Thanks.
ey we need to play for dpp fest, I'm GMT+0. I'd prefer to play over the weekend if that's okay with you?
No, I didn't bother listing it anyways since you didn't list the Dark Horses. Keep the alt, just list the mons
If you didn't start the team on PS, then sure. You just need a fresh alt every time the Dark Horse roster changes, but if you didn't use the team on Showdown yet, then the point is moot.
Nirvana, tenemos que luchar por el torneo monotype, te viene bien jugar el finde, despues del pxp tour?
Hey do you wanna battle now? I'll be here for the next 20 mins: http://play.pokemonshowdown.com/~~oriserver/lobby
Hey dude we have to battle for Fuk Ferro tour. I'm gmt and can battle during the weekend. When do you wanna do it?
hey man, feel free to hop on #camerupts on synirc if you ever want to talk with the team and shit or get help
Ok, I am ready. if you see me online and you would like to play, send me a message. If that doesn't work for you, tell me what times you are available and I will try to be there. I am GMT -8 and am free tomorrow after 4 PM my time, and am free all day on Monday. I am also available for most of today if you come on and want to battle.

One-room school
This article includes a list of references, but its sources remain unclear because it has insufficient inline citations. (March 2012) |
One-room schools were commonplace throughout rural portions of various countries including the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Spain in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In most rural (country) and small town schools, all of the students met in a single room. There, a single teacher taught academic basics to several grade levels of elementary-age boys and girls. While in many areas one-room schools are no longer used, it is not uncommon for them to remain in developing nations and rural areas, such as much of the Falklands and Shetland.
Many one roomed schools also served as the local chapel on Sundays, and evening/Saturday meeting places for local people and activities. Being mostly rural, many schools had no water or sanitation and this was often provided by converting wells into toilets (through the use of a plank with a hole in it), melting snow for water in the winter and relying on the help of nearby farms in the summer. In the 1950s a milk truck would sometimes come in the summer weeks offering a variety of dairy products (principally milk).
Teaching standards often varied from school to school as the teacher was compelled to coach children of all ages/grades within one room and regardless of their area of main competence.
In Ireland, free primary education was mandated in 1831, prompting the establishment of many single-teacher National Schools across rural areas, most initially using a room in an existing building. By the 1850s there was a school in every parish. Most extant one- and two-room school buildings date from the decades after 1891 when primary education became compulsory. Most of those still in use today have been extended following merger with neighbouring schools. Since 2002, any state-funded school with at least 10 pupils is entitled to at least 2 teachers; the 21 schools which fell below this threshold are located on offshore islands.[1] In recent decades, an increasing number of schools have been founded for parents not content with the National School system. These include Gaelscoileanna (which teach through Irish rather than English) and multi-denominational schools (most Irish schools are controlled by one or other of the main Christian churches). Although such schools eventually become eligible for state funding, they usually begin with a single teacher in a room or prefabricated building.
United States[edit]
The quality of facilities at one-room schools varied with local economic conditions, but generally, the number of children at each grade level would vary with local populations. Most buildings were of simple frame construction, some with the school bell on a cupola. In the Midwest, sod construction was also used, as well as stone in areas such as portions of the southwest where trees were scarce. In some locations, the schoolhouse was painted red, but most seem to have been white.
Mission Ridge School was one of the early schools in Mason County, West Virginia. It has been moved to the West Virginia State Farm Museum complex near Point Pleasant. Examination of the materials in this building indicates that boards and timbers were hand-sawed and also hand-planed. Square nails were used throughout the building. Except for the roof and a few boards in the floor, all of the material in this building is original. The blackboard really is a black board, made of wide boards painted black. It was not until much later that slate was used for chalkboards, although students often had individual slates for writing practice.
Teachers in one-room schools were often former students themselves. Their role is well-described by a student from Kentucky in the 1940s[who?]: "The teachers that taught in the one room, rural schools were very special people. During the winter months they would get to the school early to get a fire started in the potbelly stove, so the building would be warm for the students. On many occasions they would prepare a hot, noon meal on top of the stove, usually consisting of soup or stew of some kind. They took care of their students like a new mother hen would care for her newly hatched chicks; always looking out for their health and welfare."
A typical school day was 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with morning and afternoon recesses of 15 minutes each and an hour period for lunch. "The older students were given the responsibility of bringing in water, carrying in coal or wood for the stove. The younger students would be given responsibilities according to their size and gender such as cleaning the black board (chalkboard), taking the erasers outside for dusting plus other duties that they were capable of doing."[2]
Transportation for children who lived too far to walk was often provided by horse-drawn kid hack or sulky, which could only travel a limited distance in a reasonable amount of time each morning and evening, or students might ride a horse, these being put out to pasture in an adjoining paddock during the day. In more recent times, students rode bicycles.
The school house was the center and focus for thousands of rural communities, hamlets and small towns. Often, town meetings and picnics were also held there.
The vast majority of one-room schools in the United States are no longer used as schools and have either been torn down or converted for other purposes. However, in some rural communities, including among the Amish, one-room or two-room schools are still used, primarily for elementary education, with students graduating to local or regional middle and high schools.
The final operating one-room school in New York State is located in Sagaponack, New York. Nearby Wainscott, New York was located in various one-room buildings until an annex was built in 2008.
Teacher's residence[edit]
The teacher's residence, or teacherage, was often attached to the school, or very close by, so that a male teacher's wife and family were an integral part of the management and support system for the school. Single, female teachers were more often billeted or boarded with a local family to provide for social norms requiring social supervision of single females.
Motorized school buses in the 1920s made longer distances possible, and one-room schools were soon consolidated in most portions of the United States into multiple classroom schools where classes could be held separately for various grade levels. Gradually, one-room school houses were replaced. Most one-room schools had been replaced by larger schools by World War II except in the most rural areas. However, they are still common in rural parts of Australia.
Preservation: buildings and cultural[edit]
In Calvert County, Maryland, Port Republic School Number 7 closed its doors in 1932 and sat unused for over 40 years. Then, in 1976 the Calvert Retired Teachers Association, looking for a Bicentennial Year project, decided to restore the one-room schoolhouse. On July 24, 1977, after months of hard work by teachers and community volunteers, the old school bell rang out once more, and the little one-room school house, filled with its memories and memorabilia, was ready for visitors.[3] It is now one of the county's tourist attractions.
A similar project was done in Queen Anne's County, Maryland by retired Teachers and Community Volunteers. The restored schoolhouse is located in front of Queen Anne's County High School
In Iowa, over 125 small one-room school houses have been turned into local museums. The buildings in some places found new purpose as homes.
In Harrisburg, Nebraska, Flowerfield School serves as a living museum, and fourth-graders within the Nebraska panhandle spend a day at Flowerfield going through an average school day in 1888.[4] The students have the opportunity to experience both log and sod versions of the house, writing with quill pens, and a trip to the nearby museum, where they learn about other aspects of life in 1888.
The One Room School House Project of Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas, includes listings and information on some 880 schools throughout the state and nation. The information, pictures, and stories included in this site have been collected and sent to the project by researchers and historians from across America.
Copper Harbor, Michigan continues to use a one room school house. The Copper Harbor School teaches K-8th grades. Huron County, Michigan has several one room school house frame structures, with six of the one room school districts still operating and serving students.

Peter Chiarelli flummoxed by Iginla trade, there are other options. The Pens are not invincible. Would a defenseman would be a better target? Explaining Johnson delay of game penalty. Savard thinks Jagr/Krejci would be magic. Dougie on a highwire?
Last night it's fair to say that Habs fans were furious over Dave Jackson's goal call on Victor Hedman's second of the night. Calling it a goal on the ice made it much more difficult for the war room in Toronto to make the right call, but as Kerry Fraser points out today, the call should never have been in question, it was no goal.

What are your favorite memories from attending an hockey game? The Raw Charge staff shares their stories in this week's Question of the Week.
In Garth's final season as the Islanders' goalie he and I were waiting for a faceoff in his end zone following a commercial timeout. The Islanders were a struggling team at that point and a pretty frustrated bunch of players. Snowy said to me, "You want to know a scary thought Frase? Things are going so bad for us right now that I'm the toughest guy we have on this team and I'm the bloody goalie!"
Great stuff on Snow as masked combatant from Kerry Fraser's mailbag/column at TSN. h/t LHH user Uwe43.But playing in their own building with the postseason hanging in the balance, the Canadiens played one of their worst third periods. And when the dust had settled, sportscaster Paul Graif came up with the line of the night: "Did you ever think you'd live to hear Kerry Fraser cheered and Carey Price booed." There was mild applause for the veteran referee, working his last game in Montreal. And there was a smattering of catcalls when Price was announced as the game's third star. -From Mike Boone of Habs Inside/Out. Habs fans should be more angry at Cam Ward, who had some strong saves in the dying minutes of the game to stick a dagger in Montreal's playoff hopes. They're still in the driver's seat, though things might change a little bit after tonight's action.
Poni took a bad penalty? Yes, but not like Leaf of the Day Glenn Anderson did....
