GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The classrooms are overcrowded with no teacher aids or paraprofessionals. There are 30 kids in a class. My child's class was out of control. My child struggled to learn and the teacher had too many other children with high needs to be of adequate help. The office staff were disrespectful and rude. My child became depressed and frequently made remarks about being a bad and dumb kid once starting this school. My child was frequently bullied by other children and the school did not do enough to stop it.
This is one of the worst schools that my child has ever been to. The teachers do not listen to you when you tell them that your child needs more help. If you want your child to thrive & achieve consider any other school but this one! My child struggled with reading, I told them that I thought she might be dyslexic. They claimed every thing was ok that she just need a little extra help, so I just worked with her more with some tips for dyslexic children & she started to improve & it showed on her report card too. Then the teacher mentioned she was struggling & wanted to put her in the "no child left behind program" I said okay because I thought the extra help would be good, that was a big mistake! I started to notice my daughters personality change dramatically she became shy & withdrawn, she started to hate school & didn't fit in with her class mates & would come home crying almost everyday. (She has always been confident, bubbly & never had trouble making friends so this was disturbing to see her change & become so sad.) No child should be made to feel this bad about them self's. The teachers need to focus on helping the child, not harming them.
I attened Rawsonville when Mrs. Green was Principal and it was a great school my younger sister as well went there but now that my brothers are there with the new principal Mrs Smith the school is horrible! Most the teachers are great but since this new principal alot has changed for one if a child is late for any reason including doctors appt they do not allow your child to have hot lunch just a cheese sandwich and milk not the cooks but the lunch ladies are rude and disrespectful there are reports of them putting there hands on the children. The office staff like Mrs Cobb is so rude and mean to the children i have seen her yelling at many. If your child is sick forget about them calling home Mrs Cobb sends them back to class. It is very unorganized i have waited a while while staff and even the principal have walked right past me. Lastly forget having anything handled by the principal she does not care you go to her and she of course backs the staff and she also sent a friend of mines son home because his hair was blue for the lions said he could not come back till it was out of his hair and u can not change a class principal wont allow it! Stay away from Rawsonville!!!!
They put bureaucracy ahead of making sure children excel. When asked if a child can switch classes because they seem genuinely unhappy in their current situation the principal informed us that it was not possible as classes are balanced by race. It's been terrible watching my child struggle after doing so well previously with another teacher and after reaching out getting no assistance from the staff.
I agree with the parent who stated that kids can leave with any person..ID ARE NOT CHECKED!! As a single parent, who's last name does NOT match my child..everytime I have ever picked up my child..I have NEVER been asked to show my ID even when my child had no clue that I was going to pick him up!! SHAME!!! My son's father is NOT on my son's release forms...but my son would come to him openly.. His father has NO rights to him. This scares me that my child father or wife could just come and pick him up and check him out of school. GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER AND CHECK IDS VS RELEASE FORMS!!
I also strongly agree with the parent who submitted input regarding bias's towards a parent,particularly with principal Susan Farber and attempting to communicate and getting stable answers from her or anybody in the office is impossible.Although I have observed that certain staff are interested as well as involved,Im not convinced the kids are being academically taught to the ability needed.It especially caught my attention when I reviewed what my nephew who attends a different district already learned in a grade a year behind my kids.If I had the choice at present,my kids would not be attending this school.They do not have the stamina or the resources for what the children deserve.Do your studying and check out the districts high schools for mind blowing evidence.
there are not enough sports , the children can walk away from the school at the end of the day with anyone because there isn't any one paying attention. All the teachers have been great as far as on a person to person basis. But I feel the kids to be more challenged then what they are.
All four of my children have attended Rawsonville Elementary and I have always been extremely satisifed with the education they have received from very dedicated staff members. Mrs. Green the principal, is a wondefully concerned principal with a true gift of understanding each and every student in that school. I would highly recommend Rawsonville to anyone who asked.
As a non-custodial parent, I have been very disappointed with the uncopperative attitude and level communication at this school. Although polite, the principal has diplayed extreme bias and does not give direct answers to direct questions. I do not receive the feedback I have repeatedly requested from administration and am treated very poorly and with suspicion. My child is not given the opportunities to advance that he is in need of and he does not feel remotely challenged. My input regarding this matter has been entirely disregarded. The music and phys ed programs and teachers are excellent, and the classroom teachers seem good enough. They have little to work with, however. They too have been difficult to reach and reserved in their communication with me. I am not pleased with this school.
Having moved from out of state, I have been very happy with this school and the way my children have adapted to it. They have had a really good experience and so I would recommend this school. The staff is very intrested in the kids and that helps a lot. Mrs. Green the principal is a very friendly lady and I appreciate her devotion to making the school a great place for kids.
I believe this school has what it takes to keep students not only involved but interested in work. The staff overall helps students reach their full potential!

It has his formulary in it - his list of drugs and preparations. I suspect buru/coffee is in it, because for Rauwulf to be interested in it's medical properties, then he had to get that from somewhere, and the Canon of Medicine is, well, the Canon of Medicine (*).>> In Italy, Germany, France ... it was the Latin translation of Avicenna which was used. You might want to have a look at Nancy Siraisi's "Avicenna in Renaissance Italy", 1987. Rauwolff saw coffee drinkers in Aleppo and reports what he saw there. He explicitly says that the plant they use is similar to Bunco Avicennae and Bunca Rhasis ad Almansorem etc. Thanks for the link! E.

ECB uncertainty
For European markets, Germany's March inflation figure is likely to dominate today. It is forecast to hold at just 1.0 percent. The European Central Bank insists there is no threat of deflation in the currency area although the euro zone number has been in its "danger zone" below 1 percent for five months now.
Having appeared to set a rather high bar to policy action at its last meeting, this week the tone changed. Most notable was Bundesbank chief Jens Weidmann, normally a hardliner, who said printing money was not out of the question although he would prefer negative deposit rates as the means to tackle an overly strong euro.
That looked like a significant shift although he did stress there was no need for imminent action.
Has something changed? Certainly the currency seems to be focusing minds though it's probably too early for anything dramatic at next week's policy meeting. With inflation running at just 0.7 percent and the euro near $1.40 – buoyed by emerging market outflows – further currency appreciation would cut import prices in a way that will push inflation lower still.

China at a crossroads on yuan internationalization project
As China marks the third anniversary of the first ever bond sale by a foreign company denominated in renminbi, questions are rife on what lies next for the offshore yuan market.
Since hamburger chain McDonalds sold $29 million of bonds on a summer evening just over three years ago, China's yuan internationalization project has notched up impressive milestones.More than 12 percent of China's trade is now denominated in yuan from less than 1 percent three years ago, Hong Kong – the vanguard of the offshore yuan movement – has more than one trillion yuan of assets in bank deposits and bonds and central banks from Nigeria to Australia have added a slice of yuan to their foreign exchange reserves.
from Global Investing:
China data: Lessons from Yongzheng
This is a reference when the People's Bank of China makes big decisions.Difficulty in collating accurate data is perhaps not so surprising, given the rapid urbanisation of the world's second largest economy. Off-beat labour statistics (employing dissimilar methodology to the ILO) are partly skewed due to a large number of temporary registrants that slip the official statistics net. The solution? Jinny Lin at Standard Chartered, who thinks China's real GDP level is more likely around 5.5 percent, suggested this could be taken from the history books. Emperor Yongzheng, China's ruler in the late Qing dynasty, set up an independent body to look at data at the local level, and successfully stemmed tax evasion.
If local data is reliable enough, we should use local data.
Source: Flikr creative commons
Problems are found at a local level too, however. While the current system sets local government officials' bonuses for better GDP growth, there is no penalty for supplying incorrect data, neither are local government officials assessed on the jobs they create but via a points system. Instead local governments have 'soft' and 'hard' targets to attain, according to the panellists, some of which include environmental targets.

Yield is king in China's 'dim sum' offshore yuan bond markets
A return to China's offshore yuan bond markets, or "dim sum" as they are colorfully known in Hong Kong, may be sweet for Gemdale, a mainland property developer. But not all fund managers are smiling. The company raised five-year money at 5.63% amounting to 2 billion yuan. Not bad, considering that last July, it raised a lesser sum for a shorter tenor while coughing up nearly double of what it paid this time around. Add the fact that it did so by keeping to the same weak bond covenant and Gemdale seems to have pulled off a stunner.
But Gemdale doesn't seem to be the only one. In recent days, issuers with weak bond covenants have discovered a ready market for their debt and at much cheaper rates. In theory, bond covenants can be divided into two halves: affirmative and negative ones. The former promises to pay bond holders on time while the latter forbids it from exceeding certain financial ratios such as interest paid/EBITDA, debt to equity, etc. And of course, they are secured by the company's assets or backed by bank guarantees or letters of credit.

China FX swap may blur Bank of England mandate
By Peter Thal Larsen
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are his own.
The Bank of England is discovering the downside of being the City of London's chief watchdog. The central bank is under pressure from financial institutions to set up a currency swap with the People's Bank of China. Such a move would help to boost London as a centre for trading offshore renminbi. However, worrying about the City's competitiveness also risks blurring the BOE's main objective of preserving financial stability.
from MacroScope:
The risk from China's shadow banks
Many blame America's shadow banking system, where dangers lurked away from the scrutiny of complacent regulators, for the massive financial crisis of 2008-2009. Richard Fisher, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, said in a speech on Thursday that he is now worried about the risks to China from its own version of the shadow banks.
During the recent credit boom fueled by the 4-trillion-yuan fiscal stimulus, off-balance-sheet lending by banks and private loans by nonbanks exploded. This shadow-banking lending activity accounted for an estimated 20 percent of China's total loans in 2011. With the cooling of the real estate market and with slower economic growth likely in the near term, a large share of these loans could turn bad. And because these loans took place outside the view of regulators, the effect of a sudden disruption in repayment is virtually impossible to predict.
from MacroScope:
Manifest currency? U.S. dollar's global dominance not set in stone
Incumbency, it is often said, confers many advantages.
Sitting U.S. presidents certainly have reaped its benefits – in the past 80 years, only three have been unseated.
Most economists believe the same benefits apply to reserve currencies. Yes, the U.S. dollar may one day be supplanted as the leading international currency, the thinking goes, but that day is many decades away.

Iran's yuan oil payments won't catch on, yet
By Una Galani
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are her own.
Iran's yuan-for-oil payments won't catch on, yet. Tough sanctions from the United States have pushed the Islamic Republic to accept the Chinese currency as part-payment for crude exports to the People's Republic. But while the yuan should play a bigger role in the world's energy settlements by the end of the decade, Iran's shift won't be the catalyst.
from Breakingviews:
Freer yuan sends the right message
By Wei Gu
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are her own.
China's moves to free up the way its currency trades might seem like throwing a bone to the United States, ahead of the two countries' strategic summit in May. But it is China itself that gains most from this kind of reform, however gradual. The benefits are likely to include less foreign hot money, happier trade partners and the prospect of more capital account opening in the future.
from Breakingviews:
China's trade deficit is sign of things to come
By Wei Gu and Edward Hadas
The authors are Reuters Breakingviews columnists. The opinions expressed are their own.
China will have to get used to monthly trade deficits. Special factors contributed to the $4.2 billion negative number for the first two months of 2012, but something fundamental is changing. A smaller portion of China's imports are of goods which will be processed for export, and a higher portion is going straight into domestic consumption.

Vondell here!
We just finished High School, one of the few new battlefields we're finishing up for the base set! here it is in all its glory.
The art on the finished cards only ends up being about two by two inches wide, but I love filling battlefields with tiny little fun details anyway. Enjoy!
PS from Brad: We playtested this at PAX East and everybody loved it! Some people kept playing it over and over. There's so many different routes you can go - teen movie, popularity contest, student/teacher dynamic, sports, prom - it's so good! This is also a place where having the Pumpkin Chariot (a car) is so valuable!

Reunited San Francisco Bay Area thrashers EXODUS are tentatively planning on entering Sonic Ranch (formerly Village Productions) studio in Tornillo, Texas in late October/early November to begin tracking their much-anticipated new CD for a late spring release, according to manager Steve Warner.Manning the knobs during the sessions will be acclaimed producer Andy Sneap (i.e. MACHINE HEAD, SKINLAB, NEVERMORE, etc.), who will mix the effort at his Backstage facility in Derbyshire, England. As previously reported, the as-yet-untitled album will likely surface through a new label entity formed by former EXODUS manager Toni Isabella and one-time Capitol Records A&R executive Rachel Matthews (who signed EXODUS and RIGOR MORTIS to the label back in the late '80s). "The money is there and Andy is there...we are just waiting for the band to be ready," says Warner. Among the tracks tentatively set to be included on the album are reworked versions of two songs originally written for and demoed by WARDANCE, the ill-fated mid-'90s act formed by EXODUS guitarist Gary Holt and drummer Tom Hunting. The songs in question — which have the working titles of "Throwing Down" and "AnGary" — "are very mid-tempo," acknowledges Steve, but "I was at the practice this week and heard a couple of the other new ones, and they were very fast and heavy." In other news, EXODUS will be joined by none other than Swedish thrashers THE HAUNTED and German beer-obsessed metalheads TANKARD during their two-date Greek tour in December, which will be followed by additional shows in the UK, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. For a complete list of upcoming dates, visit the band's official web site at this location.

Call of Duty: Ghosts Benchmarked
In the shadow of the competition. Almost parallel to Battlefield 4's release, Activision sends the newest edition of their Call of Duty series to the market. With its modern graphics the action game wants to seize its genre's throne. Our article deals primarily with the title's hardware demands. Can the engine make Call of Duty: Ghosts fun for PC gamers too?
For the original German article, see here.
We'll clearly state from the outset: No, Call of Duty: Ghosts isn't the graphics masterpiece that some gamers hoped it would be. Although the developers' efforts are clearly evident, most of the textures and effects don't attain to the level of Battlefield 4 or Crysis 3.
Ghosts tries to make up for this shortcoming -- as the Call of Duty series often must -- by starting off the staging with a bang. Compared to the earlier installations, now there are considerably more debris and physics elements, though the latter often seem "scripted" and not particularly dynamic. Overall, the graphics quality levels out to be no better than somewhere between decent and good. Gamers with high expectations will be quite disappointed.
The title also deserves criticism for its steep hardware demands. Without 6 GB of working memory (they claim it only needs a maximum of 2 GB), a graphics card that supports DirectX 11, and a 64-bit operating system, Ghosts refuses to function. Even Battlefield 4, which plays in a whole other league in terms of visuals and sound, doesn't demand this much. The game's enormous space requirement is another shortcoming. Despite its mediocre texture quality, Ghosts takes up about 40 GB of hard drive space. Like its main competitors, its load times could be shorter too.
The graphics menu also leaves us ambivalent. On the plus side, there are a lot of options. The ego-shooter doesn't offer any global presets, but PC users will still be excited about all the possible settings. For instance, in terms of anti-aliasing variants, Activision integrated FXAA, MSAA, SMAA and TXAA. We're less fond of the chaotic naming scheme (On vs. Yes, Off vs. No, etc.) and the lack of user-friendliness. Couldn't they have put some of the options on a separate screen, so the player wouldn't have to scroll for so long? Also annoying: Most changes automatically force the game to restart.
All this, combined with the following bugs and inconsistencies, arouse the suspicion that Ghosts wasn't really optimized for the PC:
- Although the graphics aren't all that different, the game needs considerably more hardware power than Black Ops II.
- You get the shortest load times with Nvidia graphics cards. AMD systems tend to take longer. Intel chips seem to take an eternity.
- AMD GPUs compute -- especially at moderate settings -- slower than their Nvidia counterparts. The Enduro graphics switching is probably partly responsible for that (the Catalyst 13.11 Beta 9 was unfortunately released too late for us to use it in our tests).
- If an Intel graphics accelerator is installed, the menus' responsiveness is jerky and there are delays that last more than a second. Worst case scenario, the screen freezes completely.
- After load operations, AMD models have to cope with short drops in performance. In general, the frame rates vary more with AMD cards than with Nvidia models.
- After settings changes the screen often goes black. Hitting the "Esc" key fixes the problem.
- With high-end devices the game sometimes runs more fluidly on normal graphics settings than on low settings.
We used the beginning of the fifth mission ("homecoming") as our benchmark sequence. After a helicopter landing with jets zooming by, the protagonist follows his colleagues through a battle zone. Alongside explosions and numerous effects (smoke, fire, etc.), the around 45-second clip also features a ton of characters, who are no light load for the hardware.
Over the course of the game there are certainly more demanding scenes, but the sequence is still taxing. Like with Battlefield 4, you'll want at least 40 or even 50 fps on average.
Considering the game's visuals, its hardware hunger is too high. Despite numerous deficits, the title's performance is similar to that of Battlefield 4. With entry-level chips, like the Intel HD Graphics 4000 or 4600, the game only plays at minimum settings and resolution. Even at those low settings it jerks now and then. Owners of mid-range GPUs, starting with the GeForce GT 640M, can at least switch to normal details and 1366x768 pixels.
For high settings and activated anti-aliasing, you'll definitely need a high-end model. The GeForce GTX 760M was the first card to run the game smoothly at those settings. Graphics freaks who expect to be able to use 1920x1080 pixels, maximum graphics options and 4x MSAA will need a GeForce GTX 780M or a dual-GPU system (the HD 8970M and GTX 770M are too weak).

The graphics don't really deserve to be termed "Next Gen". Call of Duty is only now at the level it could have been at years ago. Ghosts can't keep up with competitors like Crysis, Metro or Battlefield. Some of its textures are too spongy, and some of its effects are too antiquated.
It's better simply not to talk about the campaign. The story, gameplay and characters are reminiscent of a circus show. Unfortunately, the game just doesn't have much entertainment value for adults.

Cherry Cake Recipe
Monday! Wow, am I ready for a new week…. I had a tough weekend. But, I am still here, still smiling and ready to share. I hope you all had a great weekend. I am preparing for our grandchildren to stay with us this week while our daughter and son in law are out of town. We will have lots of time for happy memory making.
I thought I'd start your week off with something perfect to serve with your tea, coffee or milk. There are plenty of cherries in our market right now. They are a little expensive though. I hope yours are cheaper.
What You Need
3 1/2 Cups cherries (pitted, frozen works great too, just thaw first)
1/4 Cup poppy seeds, ground (not too fine)
1/4 Cup almond milk ( or milk)
2 tsp Vanilla extract
1 tsp Almond extract
1 ½ Cup flour
1 Cup almond flour
¼ tsp Salt
3 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp Baking soda
1 Cup unsalted butter ( 2 sticks) room temp.
1 1/2 Cups sugar
6 eggs = 4 eggs , 2 egg yolks (room temp)
Confectioners sugar for dusting ( optional)
Loaf pan
Saucepan with lid
Nonstick cooking spray
2 Mixing bowls
Electric mixer
Baking sheet
Wire cooling rack
Before You Start Preheat your oven to 350° and prepare loaf pan with cooking spray. Heat milk in a saucepan, bring to a simmer (bubbles around the edges do not boil) and add poppy seeds, stir and lower heat and let simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and cover with a lid, let cool for about 20 minutes.
Lets Make It ! In a bowl combine flours, salt, baking powder and baking soda and set it aside. In another bowl combine butter and sugar and using your electric mixer on medium high speed, mix until creamy add the vanilla, almond extract and continue mixing, add eggs and yolks one at a time until well incorporated (about 3 minutes) add milk and poppy seed mixture slowly and continue to mix. Reduce mixer speed to medium low and slowly add flour mixture a little at a time mixing to combine well. Pour about half of the cherries into the batter and using a spoon fold the cherries into the batter. Pour the batter into the loaf pan sprinkle the remaining cherries on the top, spread the batter and cherries out evenly. Place loaf pan on baking sheet and bake for about 45 minutes (*test with toothpick or wooden skewer for doneness.) Remove from oven and let cool in pan for about 15 minutes remove from pan and place on cooling rack to cool for about 45 minutes. Dust with confectioners sugar before serving.
Serves 6-8 slices
*Katies Tid Bits Okay to omit the almond flour if you would prefer to use all white flour. To test for doneness with a toothpick, poke it into the center of the cake and if you remove it and there is no batter or wet on the toothpick the cake is done. I do not recommend canned cherries for this recipe.
I hope to see you back here tomorrow I have a few surprises this week!
I do my best to reply to all comments via email, please be patient with me ♥

Automatic Security Updates Added to OS X Mountain Lion
It was recently revealed that Apple's upcoming OS X Mountain Lion will feature an automatic security check feature which will allow users to have the most up-to-date software protection. This is probably a feature being implemented because of a growing number of Mac-targeted malware that is becoming increasingly popular.
The new automated system was discovered in an update to the Mountain Lion Developer Preview, which runs a daily check with Apple's servers to make sure OS X 10.8 users have the most current security patches and protections against known malware and viruses. The feature is called "OS X Security Update Test 1.0" and will run either daily or whenever a Mac restarts. It has the ability to download and install updates in the background, making the task of manually performing checks optional.
One new thing discovered about the feature is that it also creates "a more secure connection" to Apple's servers possibly hinting to new encryption technology or more stringent default settings. The new update also includes the usual stability and general changes for the operating system which is set for a July launch.
It seems that Apple is focusing on prioritizing security in the next iteration of OS X to counter new threads that continue to arise as Macs gain a larger user base. All thoughts point toward the Flashback trojan which plagued the OS several months ago. The update, which came exactly one week after OS X Mountain Lion Developer Preview 4 was released, is available through the Mac App Store and weighs in at 1.15 GB.

Ever chatted with a friend online? Maybe it was text-based, maybe it was a voice call, perhaps it was even a video chat, but almost everyone who's got anything to do with modern technology have done an online can't before. There is a sense of convenience that comes with having a conversation over the internet, and along with it, many people also feel a sense of safety and security. People have time to calculate their words, and it makes them more comfortable.
But what if I told you that everything you say or do on the internet can potentially turn public very quickly, or at least be accessed by people you didn't explicitly authorize at any given time? For many of you, the understanding that the internet is a public place comes naturally, and you've adopted with smarter practices to avoid bad situations. For others, this news is disturbing.
Whether you like it or not, your public information is accessible at any time, and the information you thought was completely private (like an instant message), can easily be used against you by the forces to be. If the police want your chat logs, they have ways of getting it. Now Skype is making that process even easier.
Skype, an online phone service that has been the favorite by millions of people all around the world, has been thought of by many criminals as a safer haven for their abilities to circumvent the traditional surveillance of police. Wire-tapping a Skype call on the internet is apparently more difficult than a phone call, or at least it was.
The service is now expanding it's cooperation with law enforcement authorities to make online chats and other information from their users much more available. Skype is becoming one of the leaders in telecommunications across the world, and although attempting to keep track of online communication isn't as practical as other mediums, this new level of cooperation could prove useful for law enforcement in keeping tabs on criminal activity.
Skype's changes would give authorities access to user addresses and credit card numbers, a policy change that brings mixed responses with it (and for good reason). The architecture of the service is also far easier to monitor now, and according to the Washington Post, many hacker groups and privacy experts actually blame Microsoft, who has continuously operated with an immense amount of cooperation with law enforcement agencies around the globe.
But what do these changes mean to us users? For the vast majority of us, absolutely nothing. Your information has always been accessible by Skype employees and representatives, as well as law enforcement and government agencies alike. These changes are simply making it easier for them to obtain the information they need to catch "the bad guys." As it's always been, if you aren't doing anything wrong, then there is no reason to have any worries about anything related to police surveillance.
… and if you have a big record, and are doing stuff you aren't supposed to be (like conspiring to rob a bank or something via Skype call), then knock it the hell off and get a real job or something. Society in general tends to look at those who are actively contributing members of society in a brighter light anyways.

Name Scoochie Smith Birthday Nickname Scoochie Major Undecided Hometown Bronx, NY Highschool Putnam Science Academy
Points Per Game (PPG) 3.5 Rebounds Per Game (RPG) 1.3 Assists Per Game (APG) 2 Blocks Per Game (BLKPG) 0.1 Steals Per Game (BLKPG) 0.7 Field Goal % (FG%) 34.8%
BiographyThe second member of Archie Miller's 2013 recruiting class to be ranked in the top 125 nationally is 6-foot-2 point guard Dayshon "Scoochie" Smith.
A native of the Bronx, Smith is ranked the 106th prospect in the nation by Rivals. ESPN ranks Smith as the fifth best player out of the state of New York for the class of 2013. He transferred to Putnam Science Academy in Putnam, Ct. after his high school in New York City closed.
Smith was invited to play in the Jordan Brand Regional All-Star game after his senior season at Putnam Science Academy, which was held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York. Smith tallied a double-double of 11 points, 11 assists and six rebounds, but his team fell 114-102.
Smith is the first UD recruit to play in a Jordan Brand All-Star game since Chris Wright did it in 2007.
Smith led his PSA squad to a 22-8 record during his senior season while averaging 18.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game. He shot 51% from the field and 40% from beyond the three-point line. Smith was named to the All-Northeast Connecticut First Team. PSA won the Northeast Prep Championship where Smith was named the MVP of the tournament.
Smith averaged 17.2 points and 6.1 assists as a junior for PSA, while shooting better than 40% from three-point range.
Smith is the first player ever for PSA to top 1,000 points in a high school career. He is the school's all-time assist leader (345) and steals (205) leader in just two years at the school. Smith also holds the single-game record for steals in a game with seven, which he accomplished five times.
Smith was named the No.1 recruit out of the state of Connecticut for 2013 by the New England Recruiting Report. ESPN recruiting analyst Adam Finkelstein says that Smith is "a high-major talent. He's got an instinctive feel for the game and is very, very smooth. With his ability to create off the dribble and shoot the ball, he's very versatile."
The signings of Davis and Smith give the Flyers their first two Top 125 recruits in the same class in school history.

We let Willow cut her hair. When you have a little girl, it's like how can you teach her that you're in control of her body? If I teach her that I'm in charge of whether or not she can touch her hair, she's going to replace me with some other man when she goes out in the world. She can't cut my hair but that's her hair. She has got to have command of her body. So when she goes out into the world, she's going out with a command that it is hers. She is used to making those decisions herself. We try to keep giving them those decisions until they can hold the full weight of their lives.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
We have been pleased with our experience at Mariposa Elementary. Our son had excellent Kindergarten and First Grade teachers. I find that the administration is open to parent communication and finds time to answer any questions that I might have. I would definitely recommend this school to my friends.
We are a PK-Grade 5 public school. Our parents work together with teachers and staff to bring the greatest learning gains possible for our learners.
This is such a great school. The entire staff is very willing and excited to get to know the kids. They greet everyone with warm and welcoming smiles. The teachers are outstanding! There are so many after-school learning events that help the kids get a better understanding on subjects like reading, math, and writing. It also gets the kids motivated to do very well in school
whoever has made that horrible comment is wrong! mariposa gives the best education.when i was in 4th grade about 60 kids got principals honor roll including me so either your son wasn't paying attention or he is just not mariposa style.
I am a student at Mariposa Elementary.This school does prepare you.The staff members are very nice and so are the teachers.I started going there in the middle of third grade.I loved it my first day.Also, our reading program (fcat explorer) does sound at words.This message is to whoever wrote the horrible comment on my awesome school,don't judge my school just because your son didn't learn a lot.How do you know he just wasn't paying attention in class?Maybe,he didn't care about school.I have been receiving straight A's here.All I am doing is sticking up for my school.
This school does not prepare your children. Our son went here for k-1, and still could barely read. We moved to martin county and he was so far behind. It took us many years to get him caught up. They don't use phonics, they use some other type of reading program which does not teach the children to sound out their words. Would not recommend this school if you want your child(ren) to succeed.
I love this school! My child is autistic and I cannot tell you how amazing she is doing since attending here. Everyone from the office staff to the teachers are caring and knowledgeble, traits that are lacking in many schools unfortunately. It's a clean school with a great environment. They could use more parking but I can deal with that. The teachers get back to you quickly with any concerns you may have and they have fun events like Halloween parties all invited and carnivals. I only wish it were a K-12 school. It is very obvious why Mariposa is an A school! They are deserving of it.
i think this school has a lot of potential and is really great all kids should go to this school.
I love this school. My 5 year old is in K & my 7 year old is in 1st and they Love their teachers as much as their mom Does. Mr Logue is a very Hands on Principal & the kids & teachers Love him. If he doesn't have the answer, he will find it & get back to you. He is very Professional.
my son is autistic and has been at mariposa for going on two years now, and is doing very well, the school has an excellent program for him, the staff and the school itself are great, they really do care about my son and his accomplishments they work with him in all aspects and he is given ocupational therapy, and physical therapy, which both do him wonders, even though he can be difficult at times with the teachers i comend them for there perserverence, time and devotion, all i can say is that knowing how well my son is taken care of in all aspects, i can only emagine how the rest of the school works.
Mariposa is an excellent school. They base the curriculm level on each individual child and their developmental level, but at the same time challenging them just enough to let the studtent thrive. The teachers are wonderful and actually care about their students. They involve the parents in everything that they do. Parents are able to get involved with class activities to help out the teacher and the students. I would highly recommend Mariposa to any parent for the child.

Now I'm not one to get ahead of myself and take a big look into the future. But after last night's loss to the Kentucky Wildcats, I couldn't help myself take a peak into what the Wisconsin Badgers are capable of accomplishing next season. And I couldn't help thinking that this team is very capable of making a run to the 2015 Final Four.
Call me crazy if you want. Go ahead, I've been called a lot worse. But at least hear me out before you start calling me everything under the sun.
For starters, the core from this year's team is returning with the exception of Ben Brust. Although it will be a blow to lose Brust's 12.8 points per game and his school-record 235 career three pointers made, they have players that will be able to step up and fill that spot.
Which brings me to my next point. Freshmen Nigel Hayes and Bronson Koenig have proved this season that they are more than capable of taking on more prominent roles with the team next season. Does that mean that either of these players will find themselves in the starting lineup next season? Jury is still out on that one, but I wouldn't be surprised to see either one landing a starting role.
Point guard Traevon Jackson played well this season, although some would argue he had one too many turnovers. At times yes, he did the turn the ball over in some key situations. But he also hit some big shots this year as well. Remember who hit the game-winning shot against Michigan State February 9th? If you guessed Traevon Jackson, you would be correct. Jackson was also the one Bo Ryan would turn to in the closing seconds of games to take the big shots for this team. If Jackson is able to take better care of the basketball and step-up his defense next season, this team could be very dangerous.
Junior Frank Kaminsky was far-and-away the most improved player on this team. His hard work in the offseason really paid dividends for him and for the Wisconsin Badgers. Kaminsky's footwork, shot, defense and overall game improved greatly. Frank the Tank was an All-Big Ten first team selection and was also named Most Outstanding Player of the West region in the NCAA Tournament. I can only imagine the improvement this offseason will bring to Kaminsky's game.
Speaking of offseasons, Sam Dekker had some of the highest expectations heading into this season. After averaging 22.3 minutes and 9.6 points per game in his freshman season, the Sheboygan, WI native was positioned to be the star of the Badgers this season. That didn't quite happened as he took a backseat to Kaminsky. Dekker's season wasn't horrible by any means (12.4 ppg, 6.1 rpg), but look for him to really breakout with Kaminsky as the leading weapons on this team.
And don't overlook Josh Gasser, who came back this season from ACL surgery to be a defensive catalyst. Although Gasser only averaged 8.8 points a game, he shot 43% from beyond the arc and played stellar defense throughout the season. That is also why he was so devastated after Aaron Harrison hit the game-winning, three-point shot over him in the Final Four on Saturday. There wasn't much more that Gasser could do to thwart Harrison's shot. That is going to make Gasser work that much harder to make sure something like that does not happen again.
I understand the 2015 Final Four is 365 days away. But with the core of this team returning after getting seconds away from going to the national championship game just to have the rug taken out from under them, it's tough not to think this team can't make it to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis next year.
Still want to call me crazy?

The good news: Percy Harvin has been released from the hospital after his terrifying migraine episode, and is back with the team.
The bad news: Percy is at the facility in street clothes, and I don't think anyone honestly knows when he will be able to practice again, let alone play.
I think it's safe to say we will not see him on the field Sunday night against the 49ers.
Obviously, Brad Childress, the team doctors and Percy have a very tricky situation on their hands. Percy will probably seem fine for weeks at a time, and then out of nowhere…boom.
How exactly do you deal with something like that if you're a football team?
You almost have no choice but to proceed like there's nothing wrong, and just be ready. And make sure you're well-stocked with wide receivers.
If you're a Percy fan, all you can do is hold your breath.

Summary: Spring is ending and it's time for the annual Struggle Tournament to begin! Ventus' intense training gets in the way of him leading a normal, happy life as he is forced to live under Xehanort's harsh disciplines. He comes to terms with some terrible truths, and 'struggles' in more ways than one.
wuu my first Vaniven fic I've decided to go ahead with after getting a few requests :D This is going to be a pretty long and intense story, so I hope at least a few of you vaniven fans from tumblr decide to read! ;w;
-adds it here also-
Just for anybody who wants to read.. whatever I write ;o;
I usually - at the MOMENT - I'm writing Hetalia, but I have Mirai Nikki and Kingdom Hearts oneshots/fics all planned out, one KH should be uploaded within the next few days.
I haven't written that much yet but that's due to just being busy - No college now and I'm not busy until I get another job so this is just about the most productive thing I do during my days~! I really, really hope to improve writing ;; It's like a passion I've always sorta had and never done anything with.
Anyway, it'd be great if anyone could just take a look and if you /read/ something then I'll love you forever qwq reviews are the best, also!
Thanks guys .u.
