| While most people consider healthy competition to be all about focusing on doing one's best and having fun, Fergie has a different take. The singer hits the gym with hubby Josh Duhamel and competes with him to get healthy. "Working out with Josh inspires me, but he is competitive. And loud!" Fergie tells Self magazine. "Men scream and go crazy in the gym. I'm a silent workout partner, but when my adrenaline gets up, I talk trash. I'll wait, and when Josh does something embarrassing, I'll throw a jab!" A little lighthearted competition keeps Fergie -- who posted this Twitpic of herself on vacation in Cancun on May 28 -- in the gym up to six times a week doing a combination of cardio and ab sculpting moves with trainer. Take a page from Fergie's workout manual, and bring your beau to the gym to see who can do 60 minutes on the elliptical or who can do the most crunches.

| Running around a gym from machine to machine can feel overwhelming and downright ineffective for many people. Oftentimes, doing just one form of exercises consistently yields better results -- just ask Miley Cyrus. The starlet is a Pilates devotee, working out up to six times a week at Mari Winsor's studio in Los Angeles, according to Self.com. In addition to working on a Reformer machine, Cyrus opts for short sets of exercises with a resistance band to tone her tummy. Her favorite move? The Double Leg Stretch: Lie on your back and pull your knees to your chest. Lift your head and shoulders, extend legs 45 degrees and reach your arms behind head. Engage abs as you draw arms and legs back to center -- do 10 reps. Follow Cyrus' lead this month by streamlining your routine to focus on one regimen as opposed to trying to complete a slew of half-hearted exercises. Her abs don't lie -- it works!

|While targeting certain muscle groups can work for a quick bikini-ready fix, actress Elizabeth Banks is a firm believer in the total-body workout. Banks trains three days per week for an hour with fitness expert Joselynne Boschen in Los Angeles. Together they focus on agility training for a mix of cardio, free weights, medicine balls, plyometrics and TRX training. "It's important to change it up daily," Boschen tells Shape magazine. "There is nothing more boring to me -- or Elizabeth -- than the same thing over and over. If you can take it outside and combine your workouts with things like hiking, even better!" Let the transformation begin!

|Juggling three children, an A-list husband and a thriving career must leave little time for the gym. To fit in her workouts, actress Jennifer Garner, who gave birth to son Samuel in February, is whittling off the baby weight and getting toned with ValSlides, which force intense muscle engagement through stabilization, making simple exercises like lunges even harder. "This portable exercise tool will turn your living room into a gym. It challenges your core with every move," says their creator and Garner's trainer Valerie Waters. "You immediately feel the results after the first time," adds Garner (pictured at the CinemaCon Awards in April) to InStyle. "It's deceptively simple and incredibly effective." The sliding motion transforms traditional lunges, leg curls and mountain climbers by allowing fluid, stress-free movement. Get your core in shape at home with a pair of ValSlides.

Educational Excursions
Please note that in order to take advantage of dynamic learning opportunities, program excursions may occasionally vary.
Excursions are deliberately selected to resonate with the program theme and to expose students to a broad range of social and cultural aspects in Rwanda and Uganda.
Rwanda Genocide Memorial
Situated at the site of mass burial of the 250,000 victims of Kigali's genocide, the Kigali Memorial Centre is a place for reflection and learning. Using exhibitions, videos, clippings, and quotes, the memorial explores the history and origins of genocide, its impacts, and the post-genocide period as well as ongoing reconciliation and peace efforts in ways that transcend textbook descriptions. Many visitors to the memorial cite this as a life-transforming experience.
Ntarama and Nyamata
The churches in Ntarama and Nyamata were sites of mass executions during the Rwandan genocide. Students have a chance to talk with survivors and reflect on the personal impact of the violence. These visits put a human face on the horrific ordeal of genocide and can be emotionally challenging.
Rural communities in northern Uganda
Students undertake carefully prepared visits to rural communities in northern Uganda to experience the dynamics of post-conflict resettlement and recovery, the opportunities and challenges that are encountered at multiple levels, and how these opportunities are forged and challenges are mitigated. Students examine interactions between the government, civil society, NGOs, and local communities.
Nakivaale Refugee Settlement, western Uganda
Originally a refugee camp for the victims of the 1959 Hutu revolution, Nakivaale now hosts thousands of Rwandans displaced during and after the 1994 genocide. The excursion to the settlement exposes students to voices and perspectives that often are neglected in mainstream discourse. The visit prompts discussion as to what gets left out and why in conflict and post-conflict narratives.
Duration: 6 weeks
Program Base: Gulu, Uganda, and Kigali, Rwanda
Prerequisites: No prerequisites, but students will benefit from a background in peace and conflict resolution, social justice, human rights, and/or African history and politics. Psychological stability and emotional maturity are required in order for students to co Read more...

Rag & Bone's Spring Stars-------
Rag & Bone is growing fond of the silver screen. Last season, the brand's David Neville and Marcus Wainwright tapped emerging stars Léa Seydoux and Michael Pitt to feature in their gritty Glen Luchford-lensed campaign. For Spring '14, they've followed up with Emile Hirsch (of Lone Survivor) and Stacy Martin, who got her big break in Lars von Trier's controversial 2013 flick, Nymphomaniac. "We like the fact that Stacy's still a little anonymous, which makes things less predictable," Neville told Style.com. " She's definitely on the rise and we're excited to see her career unfold. She also happens to look really cool in Rag & Bone," he added. Two of the black-and-white ads, which, once again shot by Luchford, are set in downtown L.A., debut exclusively here, as does Rag & Bone's moody womenswear film. In this role, however, Martin gets to keep her clothes on.

PERRYSBURG, OH (Toledo News Now) - A Perrysburg school levy approved four years ago by voters is set to expire. The school district is asking voters to approve the levy renewal.
Melissa Miller has been a Perrysburg resident for 11 years. Miller has two children enrolled in Perrysburg schools and she knows what her vote will be come November 6.
"I will definitely vote for the levy, I think its important, I would rather not pay more taxes but I do feel that its an important levy," said Miller.
The board of education is asking for a 13.1 mill incremental levy which is roughly a 3 mill increase from the previous levy. Superintendent Tom Hosler explained what this financially means for voters.
"That will be, for a $200,000 home, it will be about a $17 increase a month from what they're paying today," said Hosler.
The levy will go up 3 mills in the first year and an additional 1 mill for the next three years.
"One of the great features about an incremental levy is, more people move into the community, as the value of the community rises, the amount that you could pay decreases," said Hosler.
Should the levy be approved, the money will go towards updating technology, buying new textbooks and hiring more teachers. Hosler feels this is needed for the expanding classrooms.
"When the levy was first passed in 2008 to where we are today, we've picked up 288 students. So, to put it into perspective that's half of an elementary building. So we've added, in four years half of an elementary building," Hosler.
Hosler said , should the levy fail, the school system will lose 20% of their funding. As the city grows so will the class sizes.
"We don't want to scare people, we want people to know what's at stake, but we also want them to know what they're voting for. The event that the community says 'no', they have to understand that these are the things that we have to do to keep operating," Hosler.
Superintendent Hosler and the rest of the Perrysburg staff will send out a letter to residents giving reasons why they should support the levy in November.

Can more peaceful childhoods promote a culture of peace? Increasing evidence from a broad range of disciplines shows that how we raise our children affects the propensity for conflict and the potential for peace within a given community. In this book, experts from a range of disciplines examine the biological and social underpinnings of child development and the importance of strengthening families to build harmonious and equitable relations across generations.
Today, global land use is affected by a variety of factors, including urbanization and the growing interconnectedness of economies and markets. This book examines the challenges and opportunities we face in achieving sustainable land use in the twenty-first century. While land resources remain finite, the global population is projected to reach ten billion by the end of the century, bringing issues of ethics and fairness to center stage. Who should decide how land is used? Where does competition for land occur, and why?
Despite major advances in methodology and thousands of published studies every year, treatment outcomes in schizophrenia have not improved over the last fifty years. Moreover, we still lack strategies for prevention and we do not yet understand how the interaction of genetic, developmental, and environmental factors contribute to the disorder. In this book, leading researchers consider conceptual and technical obstacles to progress in understanding schizophrenia and suggest novel strategies for advancing research and treatment.
Over the past few decades, a growing body of research has emerged from a variety of disciplines to highlight the importance of cultural evolution in understanding human behavior. Wider application of these insights, however, has been hampered by traditional disciplinary boundaries. To remedy this, in this volume leading researchers from theoretical biology, developmental and cognitive psychology, linguistics, anthropology, sociology, religious studies, history, and economics come together to explore the central role of cultural evolution in different aspects of human endeavor.
This book explores the relationships between language, music, and the brain by pursuing four key themes and the crosstalk among them: song and dance as a bridge between music and language; multiple levels of structure from brain to behavior to culture; the semantics of internal and external worlds and the role of emotion; and the evolution and development of language. The book offers specially commissioned expositions of current research accessible both to experts across disciplines and to non-experts.
How do we make decisions? Conventional decision theory tells us only which behavioral choices we ought to make if we follow certain axioms. In real life, however, our choices are governed by cognitive mechanisms shaped over evolutionary time through the process of natural selection. Evolution has created strong biases in how and when we process information, and it is these evolved cognitive building blocks--from signal detection and memory to individual and social learning--that provide the foundation for our choices.
Over a century ago, William James proposed that people search through memory much as they rummage through a house looking for lost keys. We scour our environments for territory, food, mates, and information. We search for items in visual scenes, for historical facts, and for the best deals on Internet sites; we search for new friends to add to our social networks, and for solutions to novel problems. What we find is always governed by how we search and by the structure of the environment.
Do animals have cognitive maps? Do they possess knowledge? Do they plan for the future? Do they understand that others have mental lives of their own? This volume provides a state-of-the-art assessment of animal cognition, with experts from psychology, neuroscience, philosophy, ecology, and evolutionary biology addressing these questions in an integrative fashion. It summarizes the latest research, identifies areas where consensus has been reached, and takes on current controversies.
Disease eradication represents the ultimate in global equity and the definitive outcome of good public health practice. Thirty years ago, the elimination of smallpox defined disease eradication as a monumental global achievement with lasting benefits for society. Today, the global commitment to eradicate polio and guinea worm and heightened interest in the potential eradication of other infectious diseases, including measles/rubella, lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis, and malaria, dominate public health concerns. But what does it take to eradicate a disease?
Contrary to popular opinion, one of the main problems in providing uniformly excellent health care is not lack of money but lack of knowledge—on the part of both doctors and patients. The studies in this book show that many doctors and most patients do not understand the available medical evidence. Both patients and doctors are "risk illiterate"—frequently unable to tell the difference between actual risk and relative risk. Further, unwarranted disparity in treatment decisions is the rule rather than the exception in the United States and Europe.
A fundamental shift is occurring in neuroscience and related disciplines. In the past, researchers focused on functional specialization of the brain, discovering complex processing strategies based on convergence and divergence in slowly adapting anatomical architectures. Yet for the brain to cope with ever-changing and unpredictable circumstances, it needs strategies with richer interactive short-term dynamics. Recent research has revealed ways in which the brain effectively coordinates widely distributed and specialized activities to meet the needs of the moment.
Humanity faces immense hurdles as it struggles to define the path toward a sustainable future. The multiple components of sustainability, all of which demand attention, make understanding the very concept of sustainability itself a challenge. Information about whether global agriculture can be made sustainable, for example, or calculations of the global need for water are useless unless we understand how these issues connect to each other and to other components of sustainability.
Syntax is arguably the most human-specific aspect of language. Despite the proto-linguistic capacities of some animals, syntax appears to be the last major evolutionary transition in humans that has some genetic basis. Yet what are the elements to a scenario that can explain such a transition? In this book, experts from linguistics, neurology and neurobiology, cognitive psychology, ecology and evolutionary biology, and computer modeling address this question.
More than half the globe is covered by visible clouds. Clouds control major parts of the Earth's energy balance, influencing both incoming shortwave solar radiation and outgoing longwave thermal radiation. Latent heating and cooling related to cloud processes modify atmospheric circulation, and, by modulating sea surface temperatures, clouds affect the oceanic circulation. Clouds are also an essential component of the global water cycle, on which all terrestrial life depends.
Conscious control enables human decision makers to override routines, to exercise willpower, to find innovative solutions, to learn by instruction, to decide collectively, and to justify their choices. These and many more advantages, however, come at a price: the ability to process information consciously is severely limited and conscious decision makers are liable to hundreds of biases. Measured against the norms of rational choice theory, conscious decision makers perform poorly.

Learning About LBL
February 25, 2010 at 11:52 am , by Emily Chau
Meet our guest blogger (and intern) Shara Hikmet!
As I arrived in New York from my native England to begin work as an editorial intern at Ladies' Home Journal, I was excited for the glitz and glamour that a magazine had to offer. Would I get to attend fabulous fashion parties, would I be whisked away to South Beach to help out at a photo shoot, would George Clooney finally realize his true feelings for me during an interview?
So imagine my excitement when I was asked to attend an event hosted by none other than Miss Whoopi Goldberg. I have admired her ever since I watched Sister Act and felt inspired to become a gospel-singing nun. I didn't mind that the topic of the event (um, light bladder leakage, or LBL), and sponsored by Poise, was slightly less than glam. Undaunted by the raging snowstorm, I got there only to learn that Goldberg was MIA due to the weather. Still, I was pleasantly surprised to enter a room adorned with pink décor and entertaining photo booths. I had fun sipping on my pink grapefruit juice and posing in Statue of Liberty garb.
It was apparent that Poise is trying to bring lightness and humor to this unspoken subject. Goldberg has teamed up with the brand to help remove the stigma and embarrassment connected with LBL. She created hilarious webisodes, starring as eight famous women in history who confide their personal stories and regrets of not talking about their LBL.
As Goldberg joined us via Skype, I was surprised to discover that LBL is common, affecting one in every three women. It also affects women of all ages and life stages. Weak pelvic floor muscles often cause LBL, usually due to obesity, pregnancy, childbirth or hysterectomy. The event was quite an eye-opener, and despite not getting to meet Goldberg, I had a lovely time talking to women facing this issue. I also left with a goodie bag filled with Poise products specifically designed for LBL. Hmmm…maybe I should give those kegel exercises a try!

Average also means you're working with average draft assets, depriving fans of the ability to bank everything on the bright hope of future contention. The Cowboys were average this year, and they've been average for quite a while. Building a strong team despite that status quo isn't easy.

Hope we would have learned the lessons from the 80's, lowering taxes for some, FICA taxes on the bottom 90% went from 6.13% in 1980 to 7.51% in 1988, the debt tripled, had 16% mtg's, 21% interest rates for business and high interest on our CD's. We know that kicking the ball down the road didn't work so something new might work. All we seem to do is complain and we don't work together. What has happened to us?

The controversy surrounding Cincinnati's streetcar just won't go away.
In fact, it has only intensified since FOX19 began asking for status updates on the project and budget.
Since we requested those documents, the city administration has turned over documents showing just how far off budget the project is.
So the big question tonight, is the project even financially possible at this point?
Ben has the Reality Check you won't see anywhere else.

Foam home: Naples couple's green home will turn recycled plastics and steel bars into strong structure
Go to http://greenaswecanbe.blogspot.com/2011/02/just-starting-out.html for the Bergel's blog about building their new home
For more information
ICON Structures: (239) 997-5300, www.iconstructure.com
Green Building America: (239) 362-0998, www.greenbuildingamerica.com
Their friends weren't surprised when Todd and Jessica Bergel announced plans to build an environmentally friendly house. The couple screams "green," right down to the organic food co-op Jessica runs from their home.
But the announcement their new home would be made out of a Styrofoam-like building material did raise a few eyebrows.
The Bergels are among a growing number of people building homes out of a Styrofoam-type block called an insulated concrete form (ICF). The building material has been around for about 20 years, and is essentially two foam panels — often made out of things like recycled yogurt and ice cream containers — connected by reinforced steel bars. The Bergels said they plan to build the home themselves with the help of friends and family.
For building, the panels are stacked in a brick pattern and filled with concrete. Once the concrete is poured and sets, the foam acts as insulation, explained Gregory Fasano, owner of ICON Structures in Fort Myers. Fasano's firm specializes in ICF construction, for those looking for a contractor.
"It's becoming very popular throughout the United States," Fasano said.
Todd Bergel said the decision to use a foam-based building material, like ICF or another similar building material structural insulated panels (SIP), was a natural choice. The Twin Lakes couple wanted to build a "green" house, and knew a foam home was going to be the least expensive option.
The couple is planning to begin construction on a two-story, 1,900-square-foot home on Capri Drive, just blocks away from their current home, later this spring. While the Bergels wouldn't disclose how much it will cost to build their house, Fasano said ICF homes typicially run a couple thousand dollars more than a traditional concrete block house.
"Just use as a rule-of-thumb average, if you expected to pay $190,000 (for a concrete block house) you might spend $7,000 more (on ICF)," Fasano said. "It's just a little bit more."
It will take about 250 4-foot by 16-inch ICF blocks to build the Bergels' house.
Each block weighs about 4 pounds — before the concrete is poured in — and is light enough for a child to pick up and play with.
But don't think that means the process isn't safe. Once built, Fasano said, an ICF house can handle a 200 mile-an-hour wind load, making it perfectly suited to Florida's temperamental weather.
"It's not going to tip over," said Lindalu Bender, managing director of Green Building Florida, an arm .
Green Building America, based in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, Calif. with offices in Florida and Ohio, is another construction and architectural company that specializes in building using a hybrid block system similar to ICF. It mixes reclaimed Styrofoam with a slurry of cement to create a block. While the Bergels didn't consider a hybrid block system, Bender said the hybrid block system is becoming more popular among green builders.
Safety was a big concern for the Bergels, who have two small children. But they also were determined to build a home that would keep their energy costs down.
A foam home will do just that, Fasano and Bender both said.
While the up-front cost of building with foam will be greater than a traditional house, Todd Bergel said the couple will begin saving money almost instantly because of the extra insulation provided by the foam.
"The insulation is right on the concrete," he said. "The foam is a huge insulator."
The Bergels could see about a 30 percent reduction in cooling costs and a 44 percent reduction in heating costs, depending on what brand of ICF they decide to go with.
The Bergels also plans to install windows to encourage crosswinds, for ventilation, which Todd Bergel said could drastically reduce their energy costs once they move in.
Moving in, however, first depends on getting the house built. The Bergels closed on a property on Capri Drive in January, and said they planned to begin the design and permitting process as soon as possible.
The family is working with architects and engineers to design their home to ensure the home is built safely, and up to code.
Building the house, though, won't take long. Todd Bergel said once they get all the necessary approvals the "house will be up in a week."
But while the Bergels were early converts to the foam building movement, Jessica Bergel said she knows not everyone will jump on board immediately.
"It can be very intimidating," she said.

American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. announced in a press release last Friday that the company plans to exit its children's business 77kids and the associated online business.
There are 22 77kids stores in the nation, including three in Massachusetts. The Commonwealth locations are in the , the Natick Mall and the South Shore Plaza in Braintree.
American Eagle said the company is currently exploring options for the 77kids stores, including a full or partial disposition of the assets to a third party.
"Although making this decision is disappointing, it is in the best interest of the company and our shareholders to prioritize and focus our efforts on businesses with the highest return potential," Robert Hanson, chief executive officer of American Eagle Outfitters said in a statement. "We thank the 77kids team for their hard work, passion and dedication."
According to the release, in fiscal 2011, the brand generated an after-tax loss of approximately $24 million on sales of $40 million. The company anticipates charges associated with the disposition of 77kids to be taken primarily in the second and third quarters, which will be disclosed as plans are finalized.

From: The Office of Governor Robert Bentley;
For the fourth consecutive year, Alabama ranks among the top five states for doing business according to Area Development magazine.
"Alabama has a positive business climate, and we're always working to attract more new jobs," Governor Robert Bentley said. "We have a strong workforce, and our job training program is recognized for excellence throughout the business community. We have a statewide economic development plan called Accelerate Alabama, which focuses on recruiting high-paying jobs from a variety of industries. We're spreading the message that Alabama is a great place to do business, and I'm proud that, once again, Area Development is recognizing Alabama's progress."
In the "2013 Top States for Doing Business" published Friday by Area Development, Alabama ranks fourth in the nation overall. Alabama also ranks as a top-five state in 15 specific economic development categories. Within those categories, Alabama ranked:
Area Development is a national business publication covering site selection and facility planning. The rankings published Friday resulted from a survey of leading site selection consultants nationwide. Area Development asked a group of highly-respected consultants who work with a nationwide client base to name their top-five state choices in several site selection categories.
In describing Alabama, Area Development wrote, "Alabama has a proven track record in economic development and 2013 promises to be another strong year. State and local leaders are working together to carry out Accelerate Alabama, the state's long-term economic development plan based on three economic development drivers: recruitment of new business and industry, retention and expansion of existing businesses and industry, and creating jobs through innovation, entrepreneurship, research and development, and commercialization."
Alabama Department of Commerce Secretary Greg Canfield said the state's number-three ranking in overall labor climate reflects highly on the quality of its workforce development program and employees who are eager to help companies succeed.
"These rankings have real meaning because they are driven by the very site consultants who have actually done business across the nation, the Southeast and in Alabama," Secretary Canfield said. "Our continued year-over-year improvement in the number of top-five rankings is further proof that Governor Bentley's economic development priorities are taking root and producing real results across our state."
A full review of this year's Top States for Doing Business, along with commentary on the results from several well-respected industry consultants, is presented in the third quarter issue of Area Development magazine and is posted online at www.areadevelopment.com/Top-States-for-Doing-Business.
Alabama's high rankings follow the recent recognition the state received from Business Facilities magazine, another national trade publication targeting site consultants and economic developers. Alabama ranked in the Top 10 in several categories in the Business Facilities "2013 Rankings Report," an annual report card of how U.S. states are performing in economic development.

NASHVILLE - Early Thursday morning at baseball's Winter Meetings, the Seattle Times' Geoff Baker did what good reporters do: He got the scoop.
In this case, a juicy bit of gossip about the highest-profile hitter available on the free-agent market this winter: Josh Hamilton, late of the Texas Rangers and soon of the ... Well, we don't know yet. But as Baker reports, the Seattle Mariners might have a lot to say about things, and are "very close" to signing Hamilton.
The one thing holding the process up is the fact the Texas Rangers are also interested in hanging on to Hamilton and remain the most serious Mariners competitor on that front. But the Rangers also remain engaged in a two-pronged battle with the Dodgers for the services of starting pitcher Zack Greinke and would not be able to land both him and Hamilton.
Yahoo! reported that Hamilton's agent, Michael Moye, met with Rangers GM Jon Daniels here at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel and told him he would have an opportunity to match any offer sent Hamilton's way. But if the Rangers decide to sign Greinke, they would not have enough left over to match any Hamilton offer as well.
That would leave the Mariners, who, the source said, would likely make a Hamilton deal happen "very soon" afterwards.
There's a sense, I think, that the Mariners need to do something. They've suffered through a series of losing seasons under general manager Jack Zduriencik, and someone recently was rude enough to point out that the Mariners' attendance has dropped more, percentage-wise, over the last decade than any other big professional team in American sports. A few more rebuilding years, in the wake of The Chone Figgins Affair, probably just isn't a viable option at this point.


text: While recently testing a game I've written on the Series 40 3rd Edition emulator, I noticed that the emulator assigns the same key used in GameCanvas.FIRE_PRESSED to a soft menu. This is a serious problem for me, as I have a soft menu but also use the FIRE key for other purposes. I could work around it by disabling the FIRE key, if I could discover that the FIRE key is assigned to a soft menu item. Any good way of doing that?

P-Town Unified School District Notice Of Public Meeting
Original post made by Anonymous on Jan 8, 2008
It has come to my attention that notices of a public meeting have been sent to those owning or occupying property within 1,000 feel or have expressed an interest.
A community meeting has been set for Monday, January 28, 2008 at the hour of 7:00 p.m., at the Amador Valley High School Library, 1155 Santa Rita Road, Pleasanton, CA. This meeting will be held to discuss access to the Amador Valley High School Campus from the pathway off Gatetree Circle at the Northwest Corner of the property. District staff will be available to answer questions of concerns.
on Jan 9, 2008 at 6:50 pm
Thanks for the info...notifying only those within 1000 feet doesn't sound like it would encompass enough of the community. Wasn't there a meeting awhile back on this same subject? Do you know what was discussed? or was that when they decided to close the Gatetree Circle entrance? Seems like they should poll the students to see how many are affected by this closure. I don't understand why they would close the rear gate either based on the issues of overcrowding and speeding/traffic problems at the front entrance which have been posted to other topics. Hasn't that rear gate been open since the high school opened? Why close it now?
on Jan 10, 2008 at 5:14 am
All good questions Anonymous (too!) :)
Those within 1,000 feet are immediately impacted on an hourly basis by any changes made. These changes can (and often do) impact property values. For example, the reconfiguration of the sports fields that took place a few years ago. What the District initially proposed for a configuration was horrid. I can confidently say the immediate neighbors were instrumental in making positive changes for not only the students, but for their property values by attending the meetings, walking and measuring the fields, and ultimately submitting a CAD drawing. That drawing was embraced by Dr. Casey as being better than the one developed by his staff -- and was implemented. Note: The original district drawing overlapped fields, limiting their concurrent use. It also placed the large "clam shell" backstops immediately adjacent to neighbor's fences. What we have today is MUCH better for everyone and you have the neighbors to thank for that.
I did not attend the prior meeting, but I know locking the gate was discussed, as well as implementing "permit only" parking on portions of Gatetree Circle.
As for why the issue is coming up now -- I would venture to guess it has to do with speeding, increased lack of parking for homeowners in front of their home, and an overall lack of concern for the immediate neighbors. This lack of concern extends to not only the students, but the parents dropping the kids off. Keep this in mind -- when Amador first opened student enrollment was no where near what it is today. Nor did most students have cars by Junior year. Nor did their car stereos blast at the sound levels they do today.
While everyone appears to want the immediate neighbors to be considerate of the student's needs and those of their parents dropping them off, few seem to think being considerate to the immediate neighborhood and the homeowners should matter a flying flip. Has anyone paused long enough to remember those same homeowners are contributing to the city's tax base AND to the schools yet many have no children in the district?
on Jan 10, 2008 at 7:58 pm
Kudos for your efforts for the field changes.
I don't think the neighbors should have to deal with insensitive parents/kids but that the police should be enforcing posted speeds especially near school entrances. What about all the kids/parents that just want to use this entrance and don't break the rules? Should they be penalized for the few who do break the rules? Punish the wrong doers with speeding tickets. If the police monitor this road that should make speeders think to slow down.
I'm not sure parking complaints are valid. Aren't all streets public parking so the students have just as much right to park there? Also aren't there any neighbors that have/or will have kids in high school that would like to have this gate open? Seems like there should be some sort of compromise to make all happy.

The kickstarter has been a successful hit and has raised the projected $3,000 goal and is still rising! There are a ton of rewards still left for new backers to snag so head over and take a look!
The Dear Princess Celestia project has been a big hit as well. I've received handfuls of letters in the mail already as well as through email. I am hoping that even more will come in before BronyCon June so that there will be a brilliant compilation to be presented to Lauren Faust. There will be a place at BronyCon itself where you can hand write a letter.
Also our Charity Raffle is almost over! The drawing has been moved to May 5th and will be hosted LIVE by Everfree Radio. There will be guests and some fun things going on as the winners are chosen live. You'll still be able to buy tickets up until show time and in the opening stages of the show itself.
Finally, MagnaStorm has offered up a great auction to help benefit the museum and charity : A custom plush of the winners choice!
It ends tomorrow, Friday, April 27th, so hurry on over!
Thanks to everyone who has helped us out!

As we ring out 2012 and ring in 2013 it is the time for us to consider those resolutions we may tackle in the coming year. For many, 2012 was a tough year and with the challenges that lie ahead for our country and our region, we have a choice to make: fear or faith. A friend sent me an article years ago about fear and faith. I don't know who wrote it but their words ring true to this day.
Do you know what fear and faith have in common? A future that has yet to happen. Fear believes in a negative future. Faith believes in a positive future and folks, we have to make a choice. This choice determines our belief about the future and the attitude and actions we bring to the present.
There is too much fear in the minds of far too many. This is causing leaders and their organizations to either act irrationally or to not act at all. The answer is the positive road paved with faith and a belief that your best days are not behind you but ahead of you. You stay calm, focused, and committed to your vision and purpose. You look for ways to save money and cut costs without making irrational fear-based decisions that sacrifice your future success. You identify opportunities in the midst of the challenges and you focus on solutions instead of problems.
Your faith and belief in a positive future leads to powerful actions today. So, I ask you, fear or faith? The choice is yours.
This is just one of many viewpoints. If you'd like to comment we want to hear from you. Click here to e-mail your response on-line right now, or write us at the address below. Either way, be sure to include your name and hometown in case we use your comment on the air.

What is in this article?:
- What does the Food Safety Modernization Act mean for you?
- Is a food safety overhaul really necessary?
- Who should keep our food safe: government or consumers?
- Will FSMA make food safer in the United States?
- Are family-scale farmers at risk?
- What will FSMA mean for dietary supplements?
- What's next?
As Senators prepare to vote on the food safety bill, NewHope360 explores the forces that have hindered passage of S.510 and what the legislation could mean for producers and consumers of natural, organic and healthy products.
The issue of food safety is taking center stage on Capitol Hill today, as the Senate prepares to vote on the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) this evening. The bill (S.510), which has stirred up angst on both sides of the political spectrum, gives the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) greater authority to test and recall food and beverage products that it suspects are contaminated. If passed, S.510 could profoundly affect numerous groups—including consumers—within the world of natural, organic and healthy products.
The FDA Food Safety Modernization Act passed the Senate's Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee without any dissenting votes on Nov.18, 2009, but then the bill took a back seat to health care reform and the midterm election. After a year of delays, the revised legislation is expected to finally pass the Senate thanks to efforts by both Democrats and Republicans to establish bipartisan support for the bill.
As of last week, the revised Senate bill includes an amendment that protects small farmers, but a provision banning BPA from food containers didn't make the cut, nor did a proposed amendment from Senator Patrick Leahy that would have created a new criminal offense for knowingly distributing tainted food products. Although S.510 is expected to pass the Senate, it continues to generate unrest—including among the Tea Party movement and the agribusiness industry. Supporters of FSMA include Grocery Manufacturers of America, the Food Marketing Institute, the Organic Trade Association, the Council for Responsible Nutrition (CRN) and healthy food advocates Michael Pollan and Eric Schlosser (who jointly penned a New York Times editorial in support of the bill on Nov. 28).
As Senators on both sides spend today deciding whether to vote for or against the Food Safety Modernization Act, here are some answers to (or at least discussion of) the questions you might have about the bill and what it could mean for producers and consumers of natural, organic and healthy products.

Marion Grice returns to ASU, will play in Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl
The ASU football team received some encouraging news two days before its Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl matchup against the Navy Midshipmen in San Francisco.
Junior running Marion Grice returned to the program Thursday after a brief five-day hiatus from the Sun Devils.
Grice, who left the team this weekend to return home to Houston after his brother was murdered Friday night, was second on the team in rushing yards (520) and first on the team in rushing touchdowns (9) in 2012.
The junior recorded a season-high 156 yards rushing in the team's 41-34 win over rival Arizona on November 23 and is expected to play on Saturday.
Grice's brother was killed on Friday, after two men allegedly followed him from a local mall in the Houston area and attempted to steal his new pair of Air Jordans.

The Giants found themselves in a surprising early 14-0 hole against the Browns, so Eli Manning went to his most familiar target that's still healthy: Victor Cruz. It seems that the Giants have absolutely no interest at this point to give the ball to a running back ever again after Ahmad Bradshaw fumbled on the Giants first play from scrimmage, so Cruz caught the easy 3-yard touchdown to cut the lead down to seven.
The only real question left for Cruz and the Giants is whether or not he'll ever learn a different dance move.

Sam Dekker had 20 points and 10 rebounds, and No. 8 Wisconsin withstood a late Marquette rally for a 70-64 victory Saturday that snapped its two-game losing streak in the intrastate rivalry.
Frank Kaminsky added 11 points, including a straightaway 3 to give Wisconsin a 60-54 lead with 1:18 left. The crucial bucket stopped a 10-2 run by Marquette that helped close an 11-point deficit.
Jamil Wilson scored 22 points, including a 3 from the wing that had drawn Marquette (5-4) within three. Kaminsky then nailed his clutch 3 for the Badgers (10-0), who are off to the best start in 20 years.
Dekker deserves much of the credit after puzzling the Golden Eagles with his inside-out game. He hit three 3s and pleased the crowd with thunderous dunks.

To the editor:
Your July 12 article ("Parking bonus vanishing") describes the city's expanding practice of installing ground sensors that detect when a vehicle leaves a parking space, in order to reset the meter. The goal is to prevent the next parker from using time paid for by the previous parker.
The financial benefit to the city for this double charging comes at a cost in terms of public cynicism: We see our city treating us primarily as income sources and secondarily as a public to be served fairly and in good faith.
Parking Director Jim Hacker says that the practice of double charging for time is defensible, because "People should be paying for the time that they're using," as if the city was being taken advantage of. But when the metered time is paid for, the city should not be concerned with who pays for it. If the city really feels strongly that people should pay for their own time, then in fairness, they should use those smart meters to reimburse credit and debit cards for the balance of time remaining when people leave their spaces.
This is a practice to be ashamed of, not defended.

BOSTON (AP) — Winter storm and coastal flood watches have been issued for southern New England as a storm affects the Atlantic Coast later this week.
The National Weather Service says effects from the storm, which is expected to stay south of New England, will be felt Wednesday night until Friday.
The winter storm watch for six to 10 inches of snow includes extreme eastern Connecticut, Rhode Island and eastern Massachusetts. Snow is expected to begin in Connecticut Wednesday and spread north early Thursday. Lighter amounts are expected near the coast.
East- and northeast-facing Massachusetts shorelines could see flooding and beach erosion with high tide storm surges up to three feet and offshore waves up to 30 feet. The greatest flooding potential is expected Thursday and Friday mornings, at Scituate on Boston's South Shore and Sandwich Harbor on Cape Cod.
