August 4, 2003
(Atlanta-AP) -- The state was supposed to release a key report today showing which schools measure up and which do not under the federal No Child Left Behind law.
But state school Superintendent Kathy Cox says she found an error in the report and delayed the release.
Schools that fail to make their test score targets for two years in a row must offer parents the option of transferring out their children. Schools that fall short three years in a row also will have to offer extra tutoring to students.
In keeping with the federal law, Georgia will look for the first time at subgroups -- including special education students, minorities and children who do not speak English -- to determine whether a school is meeting its goals. There must be at least 40 students tested in a subgroup for the state to consider it.
The school goes on the needs-improvement list if it or any of its subgroups, does not meet the state's testing goals. The federal government has approved Georgia's plan, which requires a 60 percent pass rate on the reading and language arts portions of the state curriculum test -- known as the CRCT -- and a 50 percent pass rate on math.
Schools also must meet attendance requirements. The list will not distinguish between schools that fall short overall and those that miss the target in a single category.

FOXBORO, Mass. (WHDH) -- The Patriots suffered a big blow during the late night nail biter in Atlanta.
Vince Wilfork, the heart and soul of the team's defense, could be sidelined for the rest of the season. The report out Monday morning was that he suffered a torn Achilles tendon.
Despite Sunday night's win, this is not the news Patriots fans want to wake up to.
According to the Globe, Wilfork tore his Achilles tendon in his right leg and is out for the season. The injury happened early in the game. The all-pro nose tackle got hurt on Atlanta's first drive. At first, it looked like either an ankle or foot injury. Wilfork was carted into the locker-room after being checked out on the sideline.
He was later seen in a walking boot.
Sources say that Wilfork had been struggling with the ankle problem for several games and it finally gave out in Sunday's game against the Falcons.

With a couple of scoops of basketball good news, we've had a pretty miserable time here over the past few weeks (or past few years if you're that dejected.) This post has nothing to do with anything relevant. I was listening to Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London" in the car today. (Yes, I have non-opera stuff on CD, too.) I think the last line of that song is the best line I've ever heard (not including Gilbert & Sullivan, of course):
"I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. His hair was perfect."
In my opinion, that is the finest lyric from any rock and roll song ever, and may well be the finest lyric of any song anywhere (G & S always excepted.) I will be leaving on a short vacation for a few days, and I don't know whether I'll be cut off from the Bruins Nation (which is sort of like being cut off from oxygen, but I digress.) I would like to see a chorus of +1s, or else an attempt to suggest a better lyric. Yes, I considered the good part in "Stairway to Heaven," and I considered the clever stuff in "Killer Queen," but I don't see how anyone can top "I saw a werewolf drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. His hair was perfect."
Your turn now, and good luck to the football team in Corvallis, which (probably luckily) I will not be able to watch.

It's been six months since the accident happened...
An Idaho man behind the wheel of a semi truck that slammed into several vehicles stopped at a red light in southwest Minot, killing a Plentywood, Montana woman in May was in court today, sending his case toward a trial.
(Gary Lee - Judge) "With respect to the charge contained and the information manslaughter a class B felony, how do you plead?" (Clark Christensen - Charged in Case) "Not Guilty." (Gary Lee - Judge) "Court will note the defendant's not guilty plea."
Clark Christensen entered that plea this afternoon in front of Judge Gary Lee at the Ward County Courthouse.
Christensen is charged with class B felony manslaughter in the death of Megan Shoal, the 21-year-old who was killed in the accident at the intersection of the 2 and 52 bypass and 83 bypass just west of Minot in May.
He is being held at the Ward County jail on 75 thousand dollars bond.
That bond was the main issue in court today.
The defense wanted it lowered to 25-hundred so that Christensen could post bond and be released.
(Gary Lee - Judge) "Fact of the matter is Mr. Christensen is not a resident of the state of North Dakota, that he after this incident that gave rise to this matter, he left the state and had to be extradited back to the state so that doesn't bode well for his willingness to voluntarily return to the state. "
Judge Lee kept bond at 75-thousand dollars.
Christensen is due back in court January 15th for a pre-trial conference.
If found guilty of the class B felony manslaughter charge, Christensen could face up to 10 years in prison.

Whit Swimmers Swamp Loggers at NWC Double-Dual Meet
News Release Date:
Saturday, January 28
WALLA WALLA, Wash. -- With Galen Sollom-Brotherton winning three events for the men and Helen Jenne taking two for the women, the Whitman College swim teams wrapped up the regular season with a split in a Saturday afternoon double-dual meet in Spokane, Wash.
Double Dual
Swim Meet
Both Whitman teams got past Puget Sound. The Missionary men beat their Logger counterparts 76-45 while the women were victorious 68-54.
Neither Whitman nor Puget Sound could handle Whitworth, however.
The host Pirates won the men's dual meets by margins of 69-53 (Whitman) and 82-40 (Puget Sound). The Whitworth women downed Whitman 77-45 while beating Puget Sound 83-39.
The double-dual meet was held to compensate for meets canceled last weekend because of hazardous weather-related driving conditions.
Pacific Lutheran, one of the teams affected by last week's cancellations, elected not to make to make the trip to Spokane for today's competition.
"After our two meets were canceled last week, our job was to maintain our energy levels through this week and bring it back today," Whitman coach Jenn Blomme said.
"I couldn't be happier with how well we did that as a team. It was our heart that made us so successful today."
Sollom-Brotherton, a junior, notched his three victories in the 1,650-yard freestyle (16:33.31), 200-yard freestyle (1:44.20) and 500-yard freestyle (4:41.53).
He lowered his school record at the 500-yard distance by four-tenths of a second and missed matching his school standard at 1,650 yards by one-tenth of a second.
Sollom-Brotherton also anchored Whitman's 200-yard freestyle relay team, which won that meet-ending race in 1:26.95, edging a Whitworth quartet by one second.
Others sharing in that relay triumph were freshman Karl Mering, senior Mitchell Lee and sophomore Shunei Asao.
"That was two great dual meet wins for our men and women against Puget Sound, but we were also very happy to see our men's relay team close out the meet with a victory over Whitworth," Blomme said.
In other individual races, Mering captured both butterfly events for the Missionaries, breaking a pool record by winning the 100-yard race in 50.33. That shaved one-tenth of a second off a record set in 1986 when Whitworth hosted the NAIA national championships.
Mering's victory in the 200-yard butterfly was clocked at 1:54.19. He holds the Whitman school records in both butterfly events, although he fell just a bit short of those marks on Saturday.
Mering and Lee joined junior Paul Chang and freshman Nic Win for a new school record in the 200-yard medley relay. The Missionary foursome finished second in 1:36.97, lopping four-tenths of a second off a school record set three years ago.
Jenne, a junior, picked up her two wins in the 50-yard freestyle (25.15) and 100-yard freestyle (55.51).She also helped Whitman finish second in both relay events.
Jenne teamed with two more juniors, Genay Pilarowski and Katie Chapman, and sophomore Keller Hawkins for a second-place time of 1:15.65 in 200-yard medley, which opened the meet.
The meet ended with the 200-yard freestyle relay, and Whitman needed to finish ahead of Puget Sound to nail down the overall dual victory over the Loggers.
Jenne and Hawkins teamed with junior Sara Behrens and sophomore Ellen Banks to take second in 1:41.51, finishing just over one second behind Whitworth but more than four seconds in front of the Puget Sound entry.
Pilarowski added to Whitman's victory total with by winning the 100-yard breaststroke in 1:08.24. She finished second in the 200-yard breaststroke with sophomore teammate Claire Collins taking third.
Chapman placed second in the 200-yard individual medley in 2:16.26, finishing less than two-tenths of a second behind the winner.
Ashley Jay, a first-year Whitman swimmer, was the runner-up in both the 1,650-yard freestyle (18:38.98) and 500-yard freestyle (5:21.58). She posted season-best times in both races and missed the top spot in the 500 by about one second.
Sophomore Melanie Notari just missed winning the 100-yard butterfly. She took second in a career-best 1:00.20, missing first by one one-hundredth of a second.
On the men's side, Chang was the runner-up in both breaststroke events, and he added a third-place showing in the 200-yard individual medley.
Both Whitman teams finished the NWC dual meet season with 5-1 records.
The NWC Championships are up next on the schedule. The three-day meets starts Friday, Feb. 10, at the King Co. Aquatic Center in Federal Way, Wash.

One KOTA Territory community wants to help residents stick to their 2014 fitness goals.
The City of Bridgeport
will host special fitness events every month to encourage community members to live
a healthier life style.
Bridgeport's Prairie Winds Community
Center Activities Director Darren Emerick says this is the second year in a row the city has committed to hosting
monthly fitness events.
January's special event was a 5-Kilometer 'Ugly Sweater Race'.
Bridgeport's next
fitness event is the 'Ladies First Run' and will be held on February
"So in the particular race—it's another 5-k—the ladies
are encouraged, but not required, to wear skirts," says Emerick. "Then
they get a three-minute head start. So they start the race and the guys
take off
after them. That was a really fun race
last year too."
Emerick says a number of men showed-up wearing skirts to last
year's event and that a group of men may be planning to sport kilts at year's race.

Professor Marc Galanter to present update on the vanishing trial
October 4, 2012
Litigation and ADR scholar Professor Marc Galanter will visit campus on October 15 to discuss what he calls the "vanishing civil trial" with the Law School community, and the public is welcome to attend. Professor Galanter studies litigation and dispute resolution in the United States and is the author of "Why the 'Haves' Come Out Ahead: Speculations on the Limits of Legal Change," one of the most-cited articles in the legal literature, and more recently, "The Vanishing Trial: An Examination of Trials and Related Matters in Federal and State Courts."
In addition to studying dispute resolution in the United States, he studies the legal system of India. He is an Honorary Professor of the National Law School of India, served as adviser to the Ford Foundation on legal services and human rights programs in India, and was retained as an expert by the government of India in the litigation arising from the Bhopal disaster. He is currently engaged in research on access to justice in India and more recent developments regarding the vanishing trial.
Sponsored by the Yearbook on Arbitration and Mediation and the Institute of Arbitration Law and Practice, this event will begin at 12:45 p.m. in room 114, Lewis Katz Hall, Carlisle, PA, and will be simulcast to room 12, Lewis Katz Building, University Park, PA.

Derrick Rose, all NBA players and regular people in general can do a lot for themselves if they only learned correct running technique. Guess who is one of the few who has it and doesn't get injured: Yep, you got it, it's Lebron.
I'd like to refer you guys to this article from 2011 by Henry Abbott, which examines this very issue and what bad running form, i.e. landing on your back heel, can do to the ankles and knees. You know who lands on his back heal? It's Dwayne Wade, the guy with the knees of a 40 year old. Correcting this, along with improving posture and spinal positioning can do wonders for an athlete in particular and people in general; and it's shocking that more of these guys don't put effort into it. Jen Swanson, I'm talking to you.
I'm encouraged to hear that Rose is investing in Yoga, that's a good sign that he's gaining a deeper understanding of how the body works and how slouching and running like a bat out of hell is tied, even if indirectly, to your knees. It's not all about pumping iron and getting stronger.
Now, off the top of my head I don't specifically recall Rose's running technique, but this video from the Bulls' practice facility shows what appears to be good form. The question is whether or not he does it in games, which Lebron does. I'm pretty sure that Noah, Mr. Plantar Fascitis himself, runs horribly flat footed on the court. Maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm not contending that style of play and sheer bad luck don't play a role in injuries like the ones Rose has had, but it does appear that something as small as learning how to run clearly has an impact. This should be taught in high school at the latest, and any professional athlete should know proper running technique by the time he's in the NBA.
This Google group discusses the matter as well, but maybe some of you can help shed more light on this subject.

Let me start by saying that I've been a very strong proponent of Windows 8, not without my critics but most of my over 60 post on the topic has been to praise the good aspects of Windows 8 and its innovative new ways of doing stuff... However, I feel one needs to call bad stuff as strongly as the positive ones as yes Windows RT sucks,
I first bought into the Windows RT idea because of the Microsoft Surface RT, a device that I mostly love but that I've had my challenges with recently, specially due to the poor optimization that Windows RT.
My first gripe is the way the OS handles app and software updates, apparently storing backup copies of apps before they are updated, as I stated on this post, http://www.theverge.com/2012/12/26/3804392/surfaces-eating-themselves-a-real-issue-or-not my Surface RT seems to have a tendency to devour storage space rather quickly.
My second problem is that it just sucks to be on Windows RT, a lot of games and apps are not released for the platform or take a while to be converted, also, the current performance of Windows RT devices on HTML5 based games and apps is pretty poor, games like Cut the Rope or the recently released Countre Jour, have very bad performance.
The promise of buying into RT devices because of the form factors and battery life is broken as reported at Anandtech http://www.anandtech.com/show/6529/busting-the-x86-power-myth-indepth-clover-trail-power-analysis. Clover trail tablets offer better battery life than Windows RT tablets.
I also recently played with a demo Dell Latitude 10 tablet and while performance was not on par with Core i3/5 devices, it felt much faster than the Surface RT on everything but games, it is true that the desktop experience can be slow at times but it does not really matter because the Surface RT has a very stripped down version of the desktop anyways.
I do believe that Windows RT is going to be the future of Windows, however, the execution is pretty poor currently, the only reason to buy a Windows RT device right now is cost, which is a little lower than clovertrail devices, It is true that the Surface as a very beautiful design, but that fades away after a while and you are left with the experience for the rest of the device life and I do wish the Surface had a clovertrail processor.
Many may argue that Clovertrail was not ready, that it has driver issues, etc... but that's going to be the case for how long? I'm starting to feel like a Ginnie pig that even paid a premium to be part of an experiment.
It is not that I hate the Surface, I still like it white a lot, but as the days pass and I see great apps like Blaz Blue and Pac Man been released for x86 devices leaving RT users out I can't avoid feeling a lot of buyers remorse.
Notice that I've not even mentioned desktop app availability which is still a mayor reason to have an x86 device, I just focused on the Windows Store and Metro side of the story. For my experience with Windows 8 devices, I've real hope for the Surface Pro tablet, after all it is all you expect from a x86 device with integrated graphics, just hope there are not weird bugs and that battery life does better than 5 hrs.

Amazing. It left me depressed but that's not a bad thing. I highly recommend this book.
Interesting story of a man and his boy walking through a post-apocalyptic world. The story concentrates more on the relationship the father has with the son. The prose has a flow that resembles poetry. Words in this book were carefully picked and emphasizes every moment. There is no filler. This book makes you sit back and think about what it means to be a father, a human being in charge of a young boy and the morals that are enlisted to a parent in times of less.
This book is dark, cold, and depressing; yet, there is an ethereal sense of hope that permeates throughout.
When I say dark and cold, I mean it more than for most books referred to that way. I have struggled with depression and anxiety in the past, and I had to set the book down periodically to keep going.
In the end, however, this book "carried the fire" through to the ending, and I don't regret reading it.
Nothing compared to Blood Meridian, like his other awful recent work, The Road makes no excuses for its predictable plot events (mad max cliche meets steinbeck sentimentality) McCarthy's work is really about the language but even then, his ability to plumb interior depths through words is far and away the exception to a screenplay-style rule with "picture the actor" dialog and "picture the screen" prose. Takes about as long to read as a watching a movie too, which is to say, not a lot to ponder here, just march through it til it's done. As literature, this is no Melville, no Steinbeck, no Hemingway, and no good.
Bleak and somewhat violent, in McCarthy's inimitable style. If you like his work, you will like it.
But McCarthy's latest effort, The Road, is a missed opportunity.
Like Steinbeck, McCarthy shepherds his protagonists from an apocalypse of man's making into a hell where man himself is the scourge. Like Steinbeck, McCarthy never holds more than a fistful of scavenged victuals between his heroes and death. And like Steinbeck, McCarthy conjures from this pitiless flight the miracle of unswerving humanity. Astonishingly, this is a book about grace.
With only the corpse of a natural world to grapple with, McCarthy's father and son exist in a realm rarely seen in the ur-masculine literary tradition: the domestic. And from this unlikely vantage McCarthy makes a big, shockingly successful grab at the universal.
"The Road" is a dynamic tale, offered in the often exalted prose that is McCarthy's signature, but this time in restrained doses — short, vivid sentences, episodes only a few paragraphs or a few lines long, which is yet another departure for him.
Post-apocalyptic fiction isn't automatically better when written by Cormac McCarthy, but he does have a way of investing genre clichés with fine gray tones and morose poetry.

So that's a no? Figured as much for a nameless troll. Exactly as I expected.
If you ignore Tonto's attempts to hijack the thread, the summary is simple. Most people on this post prefer routes to be developed with minimal amounts of glue if any. That is not radical or controversial. Most also feel public lands, specifically climbing areas are not the property of the first people with enough time to develop the routes but are a communal property and that development should follow local ethics. While the value of a mountain project thread is questionable, the consensus on this issue is not. Glue should not be a tool of development. If the crag requires buckets of glue, clean it and hope for some good rock or move on. See page 77 of Cathedral and Whitehorse Ledges buy Jerry Handren for more information. Oh, and Jeremy thanks for the offer to buy everyone a beer.

Crappy ending to the Rangers season, maybe that means this is a time for some LSB communal bonding. Here's some relatively new music I've recently come across that I think is good and worthy of sharing. You got any new stuff you've been listening to that is any good?

Men's soccer defeats UNC Greensboro at Elon Classic, 2-1
Related Links
The JU men's soccer team used two first half goals and a good defensive effort to down UNC Greensboro, 2-1, in the first game of the Elon Classic on Friday in Elon, N.C.
The Dolphins (3-1) got scores from juniors Anthony Forde (8') and Darko Karamatic (27th), while junior goalie Johnny Foley added six saves to help secure the win.
"This was a good win against a good program," said JU head coach Mike Johnson. "I'm glad we got the early lead instead of playing from behind again. I was also pleased with how our defense stepped up after that penalty kick. Overall, I like how we are starting to put things together and hopefully we will keep it up."
The Spartans (1-2) got their late goal from Eli Garner in the 75th minute and finished with a game-high 14 shots.
In the first half, Forde gave the Dolphins an early 1-0 lead less than 10 minutes into the match after banging the ball into the net off the post from 10 yards out on a pass from junior Daniele Campailla.
The Dolphins doubled their lead to 2-0 at 27:25 when Karamatic scored on a long free kick to the far corner of the net.
The Spartans couldn't get on the board in the first half as Foley saved four of their six shots at the net.
In the second half, the Spartans finally got on the board in the 75th minute after Garner scored on a penalty kick to make it a 2-1 contest.
UNC Greensboro had three more shot attempts, but each opportunity went wide and JU held on for the win.
The Dolphins will close the weekend against the host Phoenix on Sunday at 2:30 p.m. Fans can follow the match through live stats on elonphoenix.com.

Did you know most smartphones record video in MP4 format? There's one disadvantage if you use your smartphone to capture videos - you might record video sideways, and when you played them on your computer, they are rotated 90 degrees. What a shame!
Take it easy. This article will show you how to rotate MP4 video to restore to its normal appearance. iSkysoft Video Editor will be used as MP4 rotator here. However, it's more that an MP4 Rotator. Actually, all regular video formats are supported, including AVI, MOV, MPG, 3GP, MP4, WMV, M4V, etc. Now see how to rotate MP4 video effortlessly.
Import MP4 files you want to rotate
Firstly, download iSkysoft Video Editor and install it on your computer. This MP4 rotator for Mac will rotate MP4 video by 90 degrees, 180 degrees, either clockwise or anticlockwise. To import MP4 video files, directly drag and drop MP4 files from Finder to the program. The imported MP4 files will appear in album of the primary window. Then drag MP4 video from album to storyboard
Rotate/Flip MP4 video in clicks
Once the MP4 video is added to the storyboard, select the video clip and click the Rotate button in the middle tool bar. There are 4 buttons in the editing window. Rotate videos by 90 degrees clockwise or 90 degrees counterclockwise. For 180 degrees, rotate twice. As you see, you can also flip the video horizontally or vertically.
Here is the detailed description on Rotate and Flip features.
- 1: Rotate MP4 video 90 degrees anticlockwise and repeatedly. Therefore, you can rotate video 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees and no change.
- 2: Rotate MP4 video 90 degrees clockwise and repeatedly.
- 3: Flip MP4 video horizontally, upside down effect.
- 4: Flip MP4 video vertically, left to right effect.

4.45/5 rDev -2%
Tasted at the big "SeaBass has got to go" tasting. Big big thanks to bvc, over on ratebeer, for sending me this brew. It pours copper with gold hues and white head. The aroma is full with mango, citrus, grapefruit, a little pineapple and then mild molasses covered spicy oak. The taste is pretty bright and mildly sour to tart citrus hops going from grapefruit hop flavor, mango and tangelo to tarter citrus hop bitter notes to midway. Toward the finish it becomes tart and a bit yeasty and then dries out some with lingering citrus tartness and citrus sour notes hanging on for a good long while. Yummy

Had a few small glasses of this at the brewery in Raleigh Hills, poured by Ron Gansberg himself, thanks again for pulling this gem out for us to try, him and my buddy Drake pulled this out of his cellar, 2005 vintage that was not released until February of this year, color is a dark orange with some reddish edges, one inch foamy white head that stays around a few minutes, some lacing, aroma consists of oak, sweet malts, caramel, lemon, toffee, brown sugar, and biscuit malt, flavor starts off with a large oak flavor, some sweetness from caramel and toffee in the middle, alcohol in the finish mixed with some nice grape tastes, vanilla and lemon come out by the end and add even more complexity, sweet, chewy, malty, and slightly dry mouthfeel, medium to full bodied, soft to moderate carbonation, taste lingers well, could drink this bomber, stuff goes down pretty easy and its aging has done incredible things for its drinkability, I am sure this stuff was pretty hot before but now it is quite mellow and smooth, this stuff seems to have aged wonderfully, I feel honored to have been able to try it, thanks again Ron, and I recommend this stuff, hopefully more of it is made in the future

decreasing a half-cent to $4.062.
LOS ANGELES (CNS) – There were three traffic-related deaths on Los
Angeles County highways during this year's Memorial Holiday weekend, the
California Highway Patrol said today.
LOS ANGELES (CNS) – The Los Angeles Dodgers will conduct City of

PASADENA (CNS) – NASA project managers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory sent a final set of commands to the Mars rover Spirit today, then said goodbye to the vehicle, which has been stuck in sand for about two years.
"Last night, just after midnight, the last recovery command was sent to Spirit,' John Callas, the Mars Exploration Rover Project manager, wrote to his team. "It would be an understatement to say this was a significant moment. Since the last communication from Spirit on March 22, 2010, as she entered her fourth Martian winter, nothing has been heard from her.'
Despite being stuck, the rover performed beyond expectations and has been on the Red Planet since January 2004. Its twin, Opportunity, landed on the other side of the planet.
Spirit started out with some problems in its electronic memory, but detected evidence of water-altered rocks and carbonates — both building blocks of life — on what scientists call the Gusev site.
But the rover found evidence that Mars was once like Earth, with water and hot springs. Concentrated deposits of silica led the project's principal investigator to conclude that steam vents or hot springs once existed at a site known as Home Plate. Such an environment could have supported microbial life.
After its first year on Mars, the rover lost the use of one of six wheels while scrambling over a hilly area, but continued to send data back to Earth for years. It logged 4.8 miles over the Martian surface — about a dozen times farther than it was expected to go.
Opportunity is still working. It has logged 12 miles, collected more than 130,000 images and is headed toward a crater called Endeavour....Read More
This just in, Los Tigres, the GU14 team from AYSO Region 14 won the YDP
(Youth Development Program) AYSO Spring Soccer League Wednesday night.
It has been a spring of success. AYSO Region 214 team Los Tigres continued its
spring success in 2011 this weekend with a tournament win in Glendale,
beating some very good teams. Their last soccer game was scheduled for
Wednesday night at the Muir High School football field. The team of
girls under 14 nearly squeaked out another tournament win in April at
the Rose Bowl, but fell short by one goal.
Jenny Callan, a prolific scorer for the team, has been the most
versatile of the young athletes, and was able to score the winning goal
on a hard angle with just two minutes left to play against talented
archrival Arcadia in a spring tournament game that looked to be headed
to overtime.
The Los Tigres team members are from the West San Gabriel Valley,
with most girls from South Pasadena, a few from San Marino, one from
Alhambra and one from Pasadena. The team had been tied with Glendale for
first place in the YDP season, having won two games and tying one,
heading into this week's finale, but Glendale broke an
unsportsmanlike conduct rule by beating a Pasadena soccer team by a
margin of more than five goals. The penalty costs Glendale a point,
leaving the door wide open for Los Tigres to capture the championship.

ARCADIA – The Arcadia High School student body recently led
an effort to raise more than $306,000 to save teacher jobs at Arcadia High
School in just 11 days, from April 18 to 29. That won't be enough to save every
teacher from being laid off this year, but it is certainly enough to bring more
than a handful back for next year.
"I can't really say it was one person's idea. It was all a
team effort which was led by our president Jon Ma. The Arcadia Educational
Foundation (AEF) supported us
tremendously also," said
Arcadia High ASB Publicity
Commissioner Jinnee Lee.
"Other Arcadia middle schools and elementary schools are having fundraisers as
Arcadia school board member Joann Steinmeier said that the
district was forced to issue about 105 district-wide layoff notices in
mid-March, but that the eventual number of employees who will be let go is a much
smaller number. Unlike in previous years, Arcadia will not be able to save
every teacher who received a pink slip.
But with efforts by the Arcadia student body and the Arcadia
Educational Foundation, the number of teachers being laid off may be closer to
10 than 50, although it is still too early to tell.
The students of Arcadia have been able to save at least nine
teacher positions so far, after making a concerted effort to raise $1 million
by having their parents donate to the school.
More teacher jobs can be saved if AEF receives
enough votes via the web in the Chase Community Giving Contest by May 25, when
voting ends. To learn more visit http://aef.ausd.net/site. If AEF can
collect enough votes, they will receive up to $500,000 that will go directly
toward saving jobs.
PALM SPRINGS (CNS) – Closing arguments are set for this morning in the
trial of a Wildomar couple accused of growing marijuana who could lose custody
of their son if found guilty.
LOS ANGELES (CNS) – The coroner has identified the body of a young woman
found Friday evening among trash at a sorting station in Wilmington.

MADILL, OK -- District 3A-4 is log jammed. Three teams fighting for the top spot with only one, Madill, controlling its own destiny.
If Madill beats Pauls Valley Friday, they take the top spot, a 10-0 record and two home playoff games.
But should they slip, they would likely finish second if they lose by less than 12 points and Plainview wins. If they lose by more than 12 points and Plainview wins, they could drop all the way to third.
Although they do have fate in their hands, it's not going to be easy to walk away with a win.
"It's definitely going to be one of our toughest match ups, if not the toughest game that we play this year. They've got some outstanding athletes on both sides of the ball. And if we don't bring it, then it's going to be a long night," said senior running back/stinger Luke Chapman.
"On the skill side offensively, I think we, having Paten Bond healthy again, I think that's a plus for us. Up front our offensive lineman are having a pretty good week. I think we'll match-up well in that area. We have some tall receivers, 6'5 kind of guys, and I like those match-ups with their defensive backs," added head coach Milton Cooper.

Lionsgate will release Tyler Perry's Single Moms Club on March 14, 2014, with Nia Long, Wendi McLendon-Covey, and Zulay Henao starring, joined by William Levy, Terry Crews, Eddie Cibrian, Amy Smart, Cocoa Brown, Ryan Eggold and Tyler Perry.
Single Mom's Club centers on a group of single mothers from varying backgrounds, who are brought together via an incident at the school their children attend, leading to the creation of a support group that helps all of them overcome personal obstacles.
Tyler Perry wrote, directed, and is producer of the film, which will become a TV series on OWN as well.
Ahead of its March release, the film gets a second trailer, with a full poster underneath it.
Donella | February 18, 2014 1:23 PM
The poster looks good. So far, the trailers look good.
I didn't realize Terry Crews was in this. I'm suddenly a lot more interested. ;-)
Miles Ellison | February 16, 2014 1:43 AM
Now all it needs is a director.
Shanae | February 15, 2014 10:23 AM
Tyler Perry could give Single Moms Club a thousand trailers and it will still suck and be a pointless film.
brave little toaster | February 14, 2014 8:26 PM
Good news: black people workin!
Bad news: it's Tyler Perry

I had a little wager on Abraham to finish Bozic in their bout last night, expecting a bulge in my sportsbook accounts I checked on the balance(s) this morning. To cut a short story even shorter, the bet had not been settled and upon enquiry it appears the fight is under investigation for 'match fixing'. Bets therefore will not be settled until the investigations have been concluded.
Assuming you've seen the finish to the fight, what do you think? The punch seemed a little awkward to me, Bozic looked to have connected with the pinky area of the hand at a strange angle. Much like the Dirrell - Abraham saga, we can't form any conclusive opinions as to whether Bozic could have continued or not, but what is your opinion? I can't recall having seen a fight ended like that. As far as the fix goes, I'm not privy as to how they are going to carry out their investigation but one bookmaker told me they were sparked by irregular betting patterns which led to markets being pulled down late Wednesday night.
As far as I'm concerned, I never like to be on the side of those screaming ''shenanigans!!'' at every opportunity. Also, as far as my wallet is concerned, I hope this issue is settled as soon as possible and simply put down to a freak occurrence. Whatever happens, this certainly will not have provided the much needed confidence boost for Abraham ahead of his bout with Andre Ward

Valdosta - Volunteers from Barack Obama's headquarters in Valdosta are busy trying to get his supporters to the polls.
Thursday afternoon, they're still making phone calls.
Election officials in Lowndes County say most precinct had people lined up when the pools opened.
They say early voting numbers were more than five times higher than they were in 2004 and expect the largest turnout in a decade.
"I think there are a lot of reasons. We don't have an incumbent on the ballot in the first time in forever. We have for the first time a female on the ballot and an African American on the ballot. You've got strong partisan campaigning that's drawing a lot of people out and then you have the awareness issue as well," say Deb Cox of the Lowndes Board of Elections.
The board of elections will display local and national election results as they come in, both at their office and on the Lowndes County website.

text: A largely non-eventful week has ended for the Lady Hoyas [now 16 (AP)/17 (USA Today)]. Their only game was this past Saturday where they won a squeaker at Providence. Monica McNutt posted her 1000th career point and set a career high with 11 rebounds. The team faces an always tough Notre Dame (10 USA Today/11 AP) in South Bend tonight. The game is at 7PM ET on CBS College Sports so be sure to at least flip from the men's game during breaks. The ladies will be returning home on Saturday to face Villanova at McDonough. The game is at 2PM and seeing as how there's no men's conflict, there's no excuse not to come. If you can't make it, listen on WGTB as a Casualite will be guesting as the color man (not me...I did it last home game and I sucked).

text: Retaliate" starts unpromisingly with some generic chugging riffing. But after a minute comes a dive-bombing solo straight out of Slayer, and the album is off to the races. The title track alone goes through death, grind, and straight-up thrash in whiplash fashion. The rest of the album mixes up these influences, keeping things brutal and varied, if not exactly groundbreaking. The surprisingly thoughtful lyrics alternate between misanthropic and abstract.

The Most Elusive Backfield in the NFL
Our friends at PFF have just compiled their list of the best, and worst, RBs in the league, in terms of "Elusiveness," their term for broken tackles and yards gained after first contact. They've done this annually before, but this is for the last three years, cumulatively. Of the Top 15, for the last 3 years, it's with great pride that I see that #1 is Jonathan Stewart, #9 is DeAngelo Williams, and #15 is Mike Tolbert. If you're going to run a backfield "by committee," what better group than this? I'd publish this as a FanPost, in hopes of getting a better viewership than these FanShots receive, but hope those of you who look at the FanShots appreciate the importance of having 3 such effective, powerful, and elusive RBs. The comment is made that Thomas Jones "should be used as a calibration tool for offensive lines, because he will get you exactly what is there from the blocking in front of him and no more." Hardly the case with our guys. "God bless the child, who's got his own."
