Right tackle could replace Doug Free Brad Biggs
The market has been slow moving for right tackles but Eric Winston could have a landing spot soon.
Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reports that there is mutual interest between Winston and the Dallas Cowboys. How Dallas would create the room to add Winston remains to be seen but it is fair to speculate the team could consider cutting ties with Doug Free.
Winson was released by the Kansas City Chiefs and he remains in the marketplace along with Andre Smith, who has yet to re-sign with the Cincinnati Bengals, and Tyson Clabo, who was cut loose by the Atlanta Falcons last week.

Topher grew up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, wedged between college town creative types and Detroit, a city that supplied much of his influence. His new album Phlotilla is out now and available to purchase through iTunes. We hope the track above gets you moving.

Ex-Seattle Prep standout Martell Webster leads Minnesota Timberwolves to exhibition victory over Los Angeles Lakers | NBA
Martell Webster, a former Seattle Prep standout, scored a game-high 24 points to lead the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 111-92 exhibition victory over the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers on Monday in London.
Jolly-good show by Martell: Martell Webster, a former Seattle Prep standout, scored a game-high 24 points to lead the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 111-92 victory over the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers on Monday in London.
Webster, previously a Portland Trail Blazer, made 8 of 13 shots from the field in the exhibition opener for both teams.
Many in the crowd of 18,689 at O2 Arena came to see Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant, who is recovering from offseason knee surgery. Bryant was scoreless on 0-for-3 shooting in slightly more than six minutes on the court. Fans chanted "Kobe, Kobe" to no avail in the second half.
"Minnesota looked great," Lakers coach Phil Jackson said. "We looked like we just got off vacation."
Crawford wants to stay with Atlanta: Guard Jamal Crawford, a graduate of Rainier Beach High School in Seattle, said he wants a long-term deal to remain with the Atlanta Hawks.
Crawford, voted the league's Sixth Man Award last season, will be an unrestricted free agent after the 2010-11 season.
"What do I want? I want to be here," the 30-year-old Crawford said at the start of the Hawks' training camp. "I love being here. I love being here. I had a ball every time."
Crawford said he realizes his wish to re-sign with Atlanta doesn't mean it will be granted. "If I move forward and I'm not here or whatever happens, I understand," he said. "I know it's a business."
College athletics
U.S. Supreme Court won't decide who owns "SC" initials: The U.S. Supreme Court won't decide who really owns the initials "SC" when it comes to college sports, Southern California or the University of South Carolina.
The court refused to hear an appeal from South Carolina, which wanted to trademark a baseball-cap logo with the initials "SC."
The Trojans already have a trademark on a version of "SC" and say the Gamecocks' symbol looks too much like theirs. Courts have rejected South Carolina's trademark.
"We are pleased the Supreme Court did the right thing and ended this after 13 years," said Michael Adler, a Los Angeles lawyer for USC. "We'd rather beat them on the football field than fight them in litigation, but if they won this, they could have used this (logo) on any merchandise."
College basketball
Wisconsin-Milwaukee reported NCAA violation involving Pearl in 2004: Wisconsin-Milwaukee reported an NCAA violation in 2004 after Bruce Pearl invited a recruit to a party at his Milwaukee home while he was coach there.
Coaches are not allowed off-campus contact with high-school juniors, and the university punished itself for the secondary violation by reducing the amount of future contact with the recruit. ESPN identified the recruit as Mike Schachtner, who would go on to play at Wisconsin-Green Bay.
Pearl coached at Wisconsin-Milwaukee from 2001 to 2005 before being hired to coach at Tennessee, which is being investigated for his recruiting practices. NCAA investigators questioned Pearl during the summer about a photo of him and recruit Aaron Craft allegedly taken at Pearl's home in 2008, when the prospect was a high-school junior. Pearl acknowledged in September he provided misleading information to the investigators, and Tennessee punished him by prohibiting him from participating in off-campus recruiting until Sept. 24, 2011, and docking his salary by $1.5 million over five years.
Horse racing
Carry On John wins Inaugural at Portland Meadows: Carry On John beat runner-up Wasserman by three-quarters of a length in the $21,650 Inaugural Handicap on opening day of the 64th season at Portland Meadows.
Carry On John and Wasserman, the 2008 Longacres Mile winner, each raced last month at Emerald Downs in Auburn.
Carry On John is owned by Emerald Downs president Ron Crockett and trained by H.R. "Pat" Mullens. Ricky Frazier rode the 6-year-old gelding, who ran 6 furlongs in 1 minute, 11.18 seconds and paid $4 to win.
Flames sign Morrison: Forward Brendan Morrison, 35, signed a one-year contract with Calgary.
Morrison, who spent last season with the Washington Capitals, scored at least 20 goals in a season four times for the Vancouver Canucks.
Samples reportedly might indicate Contador was doping: The New York Times is reporting Alberto Contador had eight times the allowable amount of a chemical that indicates doping in his system during this year's Tour de France, which he won for the third time.
A urine sample taken on July 20 reportedly showed a plasticizer — found in intravenous bags such as the ones used for endurance-boosting blood transfusions. Contador tested positive for clenbuterol one day later.
Coroner's report on luger is released: Nodar Kumaritashvili's "relative lack of experience" on challenging tracks played a significant role in the 21-year-old's death during a luge training run hours before the start of the Vancouver Olympics, according to a coroner's report.
The British Columbia Coroners Service report, issued 235 days after Kumaritashvili crashed, declared the Georgian's death accidental and revealed he was killed immediately when his body flew at 90 mph over the track wall and into a metal post at the Whistler Sliding Centre.

Second hand scooter purchase - Bulgaria or Croatia
Hi all,
My partner & I would like to purchase a second hand scooter in eastern europe somewhere (preferably Croatia or Bulgaria/Romania) next summer and travel around this way for a couple of months.
I've found a 'craigslist' type site for Croatia for buying scooters, does anyone know of a similar site in Bulgaria or Romania?
Also can anyone help with the registration details for any of these countries? My partner is an EU citizen if this helps.
Bulgarian Interior- a hidden jewel- The Buzludza (Blowfelds Lair!)

I shot a video of the building as we travelled from Varna towards Sofia to get a new passport...but that's a different story!
Hope it inspires people to have a look. link to youtube..
Bus, Train or Ferry Info from Sofia to Kiev in December

Bulgarian Bus Etiquette - Is it okay to change seats?
So far we've only taken one bus from Sofia to Veliko Tarnovo and I have a few questions.
Is it okay to change seats after our tickets have been checked? On our last bus, only the front half was full and everyone just sat quietly for the entire three hours. The whole back was empty and I would have loved to go back there and have my own row. 1. Is it okay to get up if the bus is moving and 2. Is it okay to take the empty seats at the back?
We'll be taking three more buses and I don't want to…

I am hoping to plan for a trip around the southern Balkan countries next year and would like some feedback about the visa situation.

Airport transfer to hotel by taxi or bus? Overcharging tourists?
After contacting my hotel and finding that that they will charge us 15 euros/each to take their shuttle, I want to find a better way. I've read that tourists are often overcharged if they take a taxi from the airport. Is there a certain taxi company that doesn't do this? And do all of the taxis have meters? Is it possible to agree upon a price before we get in the taxi?
Our hotel is only a few blocks from the central bus station and looks to be walkable. We're staying at Hotel Adria. Would…
Space for roller bag on trains? Buses?
We will be doing a lot of public transportation in Bulgaria and I was wondering what the luggage storage situation is - is there a space to put larger roller bags on the trains? What about the buses?
We've taken the train in the Netherlands and Belgium and were surprised at how little space there was and how they oversold the trains so we didn't have a seat. Is this common practice in Bulgaria?
We will probably spend some of our time in Sofia, Plovdiv, Veliko Turnovo, Bansko and visit some…

Sofia to Bucharest Travel
Will be travelling from Sofia to Bucharest in November and would prefer to do this during the day. As far as I can make out my only option, other than flying which I'd rather not do, is to take the 07:55 train which gets into Bucharest at 17:15. Anyone any idea what this long journey is like - presume the train is very basic, border stops ok?, usually running late? etc
Is there any option to travel by bus during the day? Can only see a bus that leaves at 00:30 each morning for an overnight…

Senate Bill 1959 to Criminalize Thoughts, Blogs, Books and Free Speech Across America
2007 12 04
By Mike Adams |
The end of Free Speech in America has arrived at our doorstep. It's a new law called the
Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act
, and it is worded in a clever way that could allow the U.S. government to arrest and incarcerate any individual who speaks out against the Bush Administration, the war on Iraq, the Department of Homeland Security or any government agency (including the FDA). The law has already passed the House on a traitorous vote of 405 to 6, and it is now being considered in the Senate where a vote is imminent. All over the internet, intelligent people who care about freedom are speaking out against this extremely dangerous law:
Philip Giraldi at the Huffington Post
Declan McCullagh at CNET's News.com
Kathryn Smith at OpEdNews.com
, and of course
Alex Jones at PrisonPlanet.com
This bill is the beginning of the end of Free Speech in America. If it passes, all the information sources you know and trust could be shut down and their authors imprisoned. NewsTarget could be taken offline and I could be arrested as a "terrorist." Jeff Rense at
could be labeled a "terrorist" and arrested. Byron Richards, Len Horowitz, Paul Craig Roberts, Greg Palast, Ron Paul and even Al Gore could all be arrested, silenced and incarcerated. This is not an exaggeration. It is a literal reading of the law, which you can check yourself here:
The bill states:
...ideologically based violence means the use, planned use, or threatened use of force or violence by a group or individual to promote the group or individuals political, religious, or social beliefs...
Note that this means the "planned use of force to promote a political or social belief" would be considered an act of terrorism. This all hinges on the definition of "force," of course. Based on the loose use of logic in Washington these days, and the slippery interpretation of the meaning of words, "force" could mean:
• A grassroots campaign to barrage Congress with faxes
• A non-violent street protest
• A letter-writing campaign that deluges the Senate with too much mail
• A sit-in protest that blocks access to a business or organization
• A grassroots e-mail campaign that overloads the e-mail servers of any government department or agency
You get the idea. "Force" could be defined as practically anything. And since the "planned use of force" would be considered a criminal act of terrorism, anyone who simply
thinks about a grassroots action campaign
would be engaged in terrorist acts.
If you stopped someone on the street and handed them a Bible, for example, this could be considered an act of terrorism ("...use of force to promote the individual's religious beliefs...")
If you sent a barrage of angry letters to Washington about global warming and the destruction of the environment by the U.S. military, this could also be considered an act of terrorism ("...to promote the individual's political beliefs...")
If you believe in same-sex marriage and you wrote a letter threatning a sit-in protest in front of your state's capitol building, this could also be considered an act of terrorism, even if you never carried it out! ("...planned use of force to promote a social belief...")
The United States is on the fast track to fascism, and the Congress is working right alongside this nation's traitorous leaders to criminalize any thoughts, words or speeches that disagree with current government policies regarding war, terrorism, domestic surveillance and civil liberties. Simply speaking out against the war on Iraq could soon be labeled a crime. Merely
thinking thoughts against the war on Iraq
could be considered a criminal act.
Must-see video: Naomi Wolf's lecture on 10 steps to fascism
There's a video lecture you simply MUST watch. It's by Naomi Wolf, author of
The End of America
. She covers this topic with great elegance and a deep understanding of history.
See her video on YouTube at:
Click here to see her book on Amazon.com.
In her lecture and book, Naomi reveals the
ten steps to fascist
, then reveals how the United States of America is pursuing all ten! This S.1959 legislation, the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act, represents one of the ten steps to achieve a fascist state!
It is designed to squash all opposition to the State's ongoing march towards blatant fascism, where secret police and secret prisons dominate the law enforcement landscape, stripping U.S. citizens of all civil liberties and Constitutional protections.
Thoughtcrimes are about to become a reality in the United States of America, and Congress is pushing this through as quickly as possible so that each individual member of Congress can claim that he or she is "against terrorism." But this bill doesn't merely target terrorism: It targets anyone who speaks or even
thinks thoughts
against the U.S. federal government.
With this bill, the U.S. government is officially labeling the People of the United States as criminals. It is drawing a line in the sand and stating that from now on, it's the Government vs. the People.
If we don't stop this bill from becoming law, we are lost as a nation.
There is no turning back from tyranny once the government turns its own citizens into criminals, enforcing only the thoughts, ideas, words and speeches that it approves or tolerates. Everything is at stake here!
Take action now, or lose your freedoms forever
If you live in the U.S., it is urgent that you call your senators right now and voice your strong opposition against this extremely dangerous law.
Here are the phone numbers for the U.S. Senate switchboard:
How to do this:
1) Make sure you know the names of your Senators.
2) Call the U.S. Senate switchboard using one of the numbers above.
3) Ask to speak to the offices of your Senators.
4) Tell them you are strongly opposed to S. 1959, the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act
5) Ask for their fax number.
6) Follow up your phone call with a written, signed letter that you fax to your Senators.
Stopping this bill from becoming law is the single most important thing all Americans can do right now. If this becomes law, all free speech about health freedom, the crimes of the FDA, the crimes of the Bush Administration, America's role in global warming and any other topics could all be criminalized. YOU could be labeled a terrorist, kidnapped by government thugs, taken from your home, thrown in a secret prison, denied access to legal representation, denied due process and essentially "disappeared" into a system of such corruption and evil that it now begins to blatantly mirror Nazi Germany.
Think it couldn't happen here?
It's happening right now!
This is
how it happened in Nazi Germany. First, burn the Reichstag and blame it on the "enemy." Pass new police state laws. Disarm the people. Spread fear. Erect secret prisons and secret police. Call anyone who disagrees with you a "traitor." Control the mainstream media. Sound familiar? This is all happening right now in the United States of Amerika, and if we don't work to stop it, this nation will rapidly devolve into a fascist police state where no one is truly free.
We are but a few small steps away from it right now. All it would take is one dirty bomb in a major U.S. city. Bush would declare Martial Law and take over the National Guard. Troops on the streets. Anyone who writes a blog against the government would be arrested. Authors of "alternative" books would be kidnapped and have their books burned on the street. It could all happen at the stroke of a pen. The infrastructure for tyranny is in place right now, just waiting to be invoked.
Our best weapons: Non-violent protest and speaking the truth
How can we fight back against this onslaught of tyranny? We must use what remaining free speech freedoms we have right now to alert our fellow citizens to what's happening. We must rise up and tell the truth while urging our representatives in Washington to resist the temptation to vote for more "anti-terrorism" legislation that only works to enslave the American people.

Houston (CBS Houston) - After firing Gary Kubiak, Bob McNair told his players he didn't care about draft order. All he wanted to do was win.
That emphatic declaration wasn't able to stop the Texans from dropping their 12th straight game 25-3 to the Colts. Andrew Luck was in control from the start, leading the Colts an an 11 play 80-yard touchdown drive to start the game.
The Texans turned a Johnathan Joseph interception into a 49-yard field goal in the first quarter but it would be the last time they scored.
Despite bringing officials into practice this week, Wade Phillips was unable to cure the Texans recent penalty issues. They were flagged 14 times for 114 yards.
The Colts dominated all aspects of the game, including picking off Case Keenum twice.

Nanoengineering research at UH a magnet for defense department grantHOUSTON, TX | Posted on February 5th, 2007
That's why military and medical personnel increasingly rely on magnetic field sensors to help map their respective terrains - and why the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) has awarded a University of Houston researcher and his team a grant worth up to $1.6 million to build the most powerful magnetic field sensor to date.

Apparently when they can help make him look good, Senator Charles Schumer likes helicopters a lot. Monday, the New York Democrat's office issued a news release saying the FAA had granted permit to allow Haverfield Aviation to use a helicopter to string a tightrope from the Canadian side of Niagara falls to the American side.
Television station WKBW reports that in the news release, Senator Schumer (pictured) said he had learned that the rigging company needed a permit from the FAA to install the tightrope that will be used by Nik Wallenda in his attempt to walk across the falls on Friday. Schumer says he registered his concerns with the FAA, saying the permit should be issued "soon" or it could delay the attempt.
"As Nik Wallenda prepares for his historic walk across Niagara Falls, nothing should stand in his way," said Schumer. "That's why I made contact with the Federal Aviation Administration upon learning of the pending permit that is needed in order to string Nik Wallenda's two-inch tightrope across Niagara Falls by helicopter, and conveyed the urgency of getting this done quickly. I am pleased with today's (Monday's) announcement that the FAA has acted quickly to approve this critical permit, which will allow Nik Wallenda's historic walk to move forward as planned. Wallenda will still take to the skies over Niagara on Friday, which is going to be a major tourism event in Niagara Falls and great news for local businesses."
As long as the helicopter doesn't make any noise ...

Electronic Music + Progressive Soul. From WDET Detroit.
The Treatment
Film critic Elvis Mitchell gives the "treatment" to some of the most influential and innovative forces creating movies and popular art and entertainment - discussing everything from their inner conflicts to their interior design.
This week on the Friday Follies, Craig is joined by WDET's own Laura Weber Davis, Wayne State University lecturer Saeed Khan, and Amy Haimerl of Crain's Detroit Business. The group sit down to talk and poke fun at some of the stories making news this week. Stories include Representative John Conyers as a write-in candidate on the primary ballot, the Michigan GOP won't support Rep. Justin Amash, former American Idol Clay Aiken is carrying the lead in the Democratic Primary in North Carolina, MSNBC's so-called celebration of Cinco de Mayo, the UPS delivers a drone to the wrong address and much more.

Next IRGS Meeting
Tuesday - November 18, 2014
9:30 am
Craig R. Scott, CG, FUGA
Compiling a Military Service Record:
What to do when there are no records?
Craig R. Scott, CG, FUGA is President and CEO of Heritage Books, Inc., a genealogical publishing firm with over 5300 titles in print. A researcher for more than twenty-eight years, he specializes in the records of the National Archives, problem solving and publishing. Mr. Scott was awarded the Grahame T. Smallwood, Jr. Award by APG in 2008 and the UGA Silver Tray Award in 2009. A nationally known lecturer and educator he has appeared on the Ancestry Show and the Neil Leherer News Hour. He brings enthusiasm and a wealth of knowledge to each engagement.
In keeping with our November program tradition, IRGS has asked Craig R. Scott, CG, FUGA, to speak to our members and guests on military research. One of the difficulties that you will encounter in military research is that there are no compiled military service records for Regular Army personnel. Therefore it is up to the researcher to create such a compilation. Scott is known for giving energetic and enlightening lectures, loaded with tips and information one cannot find in the normal course of genealogical research. This is truly a meeting you do not want to miss!

Red-haired, recovering scientist, writer, photographer, thinker, not a dancer, but am terribly unhappy with filling in biography sections on sites like this. Feeling compelled to make a joke. Can't think of one. Hence will just waffle on a bit about my rather zig-zag career to journalism, mention my novel-in-writing, point out that explaining complex things in accessible ways is a specialty of mine, and close with a brief reminder ...Read Full Bio →

Trying to avoid the token box of chocolates this year. Any ideas?.

I always try to do something homemade, like shortbbread.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 06:13 PM
I made fabric carry bags for them last year, they loved them and I still see them using them around school. Another year the children bought some punnets of herbs and some nice pots and planted them up and took care of them until the end of term to give to their teachers.

Should say it's a male teacher.
Oh and not home made, but thank you for the suggestions
A plant may be an idea though..
Posted 21 November 2012 - 06:31 PM
My daughter has a male teacher this year too. I thought of the best idea!!! Go to either the world vision or oxfam websites and buy some chickens and eggs, or pencils and school books for children in Africa. I figured that the teachers would get so much chocolate and biscuits, cakes etc that they'd really appreciate this gift.

A card with a genuine heartfelt message.
That's it.
* I am a teacher
*my Mum was a teacher
*my grandmother was a teacher (and lived with us)
*two Aunt's are teachers
*my inlaws were both teachers
*I have many teacher friends.

My friend (who is a teacher and whose husband is also a teacher) wrote this guest post, with lots of great suggestions:
ETA: Consider buying a stash of stickers that they can use the following year. Most primary teachers spend a lot of their own money on stickers and little treats; I'm sure they'd appreciate some that they didn't have to buy themselves. You can even order them with the teacher's name on them. I did this for one of DS's teachers, that said things like "Mrs X says great work!"

I have to remind everyone that sometimes home made food isn't really a teacher's favourite. Not one teacher I works with will eat food made at home, unless they know the parent really well and are really, really, really certain about the standard of hygiene in their home. I don't mean to offend anyone, just making a point.
A really thoughtful card is lovely.
Wine glasses and alcohol
I love practical, yet cute stationery (memo pads, cute pencils/pens, paper clips, bulldog clips)
For a male teacher: Bunnings vouchers, beer, red wine, ties (as in neck ties, if they wear them - ie: private school teacher), personalied pen, key rings

Wine for the teachers this year

Yes I brought the personalized stickers last year. They were a great hit.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 07:08 PM
Another teacher here...I second the idea of oxfam/ compassion/ tear/ world vision gifts..I think they are a wonderful gift idea to show appreciation and help good causes.
One of the most beautiful gifts I ever received was from a little girl who wrote my whole family's names on Christmas baubles with glitter pens....she included my daughter who had passed away that year, they're very special and bring tears to my eyes every Christmas when we hang them.
Most teachers really just appreciate a few kind words, especially from parents. I know we often feel under attack from the general public & that a lot is blamed on us...yet a lot of us spend sooooooooo many extra hours at school and working at home - not for money or accolade, but because we care about the kids so much. So it really is so encouraging at the end of the year when extra effort hasn't gone unnoticed.
Sorry...bit of a rant there...now I'm getting soppy, I love my class & don't want to let them go!!!!
Edited to add: each to their own, but I'd never throw out homemade food etc...gosh, I only have to think about take away food etc....I'd say most homes are lots more hygienic than some restaurants and caves etc! Don't think too much...just enjoy yummy stuff!! Doh.. Cafes not caves.

My baking must be of a superior standard because I keep getting DD's teachers asking for treats. I bring them in morning tea every now and then when I've been baking and I know it's appreciated.
DD has made both of her teachers a card and has written a message in it. I'm going to bake some of my white chocolate, macadamia and cranberry chunky cookies. DD made a tag that says, "Thanks for helping me to be a smart cookie." Corny but I know they will like it.

From reading all suggestions inc on that site, I think I have come up with movie ticket vouchers for the teacher and his wife. Our local cinema has christmas movie vouchers avail at the mo (cheap but lovely country theatre).
Yes I did movie vouchers one year too. I am doing book vouchers this year.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 07:16 PM
Alcohol: beer/wine champers
Movie tix
Christmas decoration
Christmas tea towel/table ornament, etc they can use each year
Book voucher
Thoughtful card with scratchies/tatts ticket
Christmas storybook for classroom
Or hone in on something personal if you know them well eg perfume, earings,
at then end of the day it is a token to say thank-you and I am sure the teacher appreciates whatever gift they receive
Posted 21 November 2012 - 07:19 PM
Our teachers are getting 'money trees'...
A small Xmas tree ($2) with scratchies tied all around it.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 07:23 PM
I've found these threads really useful over the years. I only made homemade stuff once before I read these sorts of threads. It makes perfect sense to me that teachers would be iffy about some of the stuff they received. I don't like baking anyway so I am sure duty baking tastes even worse! Since my daughter stared proper school we have always had a class parent who collects money from everyone else who wants to participate and buys a joint present. We put in $20 each and the teacher gets a $300 gift.

Wine and the kids (well not DS this year) sew a Christmas wine bag cover.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 07:43 PM
Jar biscuits. Google some recipes.
All of the dry ingredients are layered in a jar with a little tag to say how to prepare them. All that they will have to do is add egg, butter and vanilla essence.
I've ever made them but am planning on making some this year, I'm going to make a test batch before I give them to anyone.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 07:52 PM
Yes I did the Oxfarm presents one year too & they were really appreciated - my DS's teacher has been teaching for at least 30 years so it seemed a good way to acknowledge the work she did with him ( plus had really been supportive of me during a bit of a difficult time - read I sobbed on her shoulder - she was lovely) - she loved it. One year I got a male teacher who played the guitar a Oxfarm thing about this card goes to teaching a child music etc - he loved the thought and went out of his way to thank me for it.

Allergies could also play a part unless you labelled exactly what is in whatever you made.

Posted 21 November 2012 - 08:01 PM
I always buy my mentors and my sons teachers a gift for the classroom. A puzzle, game, book that DS has picked. We usually put a sticker on the bottom with ' Dear Mrs B, thanks for a wonderful year. Love {Child Name}, {Class}, {Year}
Saves the teacher money out of their own pocket and is loved by similar age children for years to come
Posted 21 November 2012 - 08:06 PM
Do people buy female teachers booze as well as the males? I hope so. I love getting a bottle of wine from a student - also Christmas decs make good presents and are a nice way of remember the student who gave it to you. I LOVE home made biscuits, too. I usually buy Care gift packages - I think teachers (and all of us) would appreciate the money being spent on someone else who really needs it.
