Chicago Bears: Tommie Harris
Bears pick DT Will Sutton in 3rd
LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- The pick: Will Sutton, defensive tackle, Arizona State.
My take: The Bears poured a massive amount of resources into repairing the interior of the defensive line with Sutton and second-round pick Ego Ferguson of LSU. Sutton, a two-time Pac-12 defensive player of the year, had 13 sacks and 23.5 tackles for loss for the Sun Devils in 2012 and likely projects to line up at three-technique in the NFL.
Sutton's numbers dropped last year when he registered only 48 tackles, four sacks and 13.5 tackles-for-loss. Many draft analysts believe Sutton's decline in production was due to his being overweight. Sutton said he is currently at 290 pounds but can continue to drop weight if the Bears want him to.
The defensive tackle was declared academically ineligible in 2010.
Sutton obviously made a positive impression on the Bears and defensive line coach Paul Pasqualoni during his pre-draft visit to Halas Hall.
Double-dip: The last time the Bears went back-to-back at defensive tackles in the early rounds was 2004 when former general manager Jerry Angelo selected Tommie Harris and Tank Johnson. When Harris and Johnson were healthy and focused, they comprised one of the best defensive tackle combos in the league. The Bears would be absolutely thrilled if one day Sutton and Ferguson can grow into that role.
Both players are expected to be part of a rotation in 2014, but Sutton and Ferguson could be the future starters at three-technique and nose tackle, respectively.
What's next: The Bears hold four picks Saturday (Nos. 117, 156, 183, 191) but none in the seventh-round due to last year's trade with Dallas for tight end Dante Rosario. But the Bears do have an extra choice in the sixth round, courtesy of sending former first-round choice Gabe Carimi to the Bucs.
With cornerback and defensive tackle addressed, the Bears are expected to target help at linebacker, running back and perhaps safety, although the consensus top-five safeties are all off the board.
Reports: Ex-Bears DT Harris arrested
Harris, the Bears' first-round pick in the 2004 NFL draft and a three-time Pro Bowler, was arrested in Wrigleyville and charged with misdemeanor counts of indecent exposure, urinating in public and simple assault, according to the Chicago Tribune. A police spokesman told the paper that the simple assault charge was for threatening a police officer.
The Bears parted ways with Harris in 2010 after seven seasons. He played 13 games with the San Diego Chargers last season. He had to deal with tragedy during his stint with the Chargers when his wife Ashley died at age 29 of a stroke or aneurysm. He is now out of football.
Ex-Bear Garay makes mark with Chargers
LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- The most productive former Bears defensive lineman currently on the Chargers roster isn't three-time Pro Bowler Tommie Harris, it's veteran Antonio Garay.
Garay spent almost two seasons as a reserve Bears defensive linemen before he fractured his right leg on an illegal block by the Redskins' Chris Samuels in December 2007. The Bears decided to part company following the injury, and Garay spent 2008 out of the NFL before he resurfaced on the Jets' practice squad in 2009. Eventually, the defensive lineman found his way to San Diego, where he's established himself at nose tackle in the Chargers' 3-4 defense.
"He was doing some good things here until he was injured," Bears head coach Lovie Smith said. "We were playing him too. It's not like it's a shock he's playing that type of football. Scheme-wise it may be a better fit for him, but he was a good, tough football player while he was here.'
"Tommie Harris has done some good things for them also, so they're getting some big plays from some of our old players."
Through nine games Garay leads all San Diego offensive linemen in total tackles (41), tackles for a loss (7), sacks (2.5), pressures (5) and quarterback hits (8). He registered 5.5 sacks in 15 starts for San Diego in 2010.
Ex-Bears DT Harris signs with Colts
Harris, who made three Pro Bowls with the Bears, was released on Feb. 28 by the Bears. The 14th overall selection in the 2004 draft started 90 of 104 career games for the Bears in seven seasons, but was released in part because of underperformance in 2010, finishing with just 18 tackles, 1.5 sacks and two fumble recoveries in six starts.
Harris was due a $2.5 million roster bonus in June and was scheduled to make $2.312 million in base salary in 2011.

Uncertain cap adds to complexities
CHICAGO -- Halas Hall remained quiet in terms of transactions Monday, the first day the Chicago Bears and the rest of the NFL could start releasing players.
Given there's a bit of a timetable to rid rosters of undesirables around the league (once the current collective bargaining agreement expires on March 4, league business ceases without a new deal in place), Chicago's relative inactivity would seem interesting considering it's believed to be pondering parting ways with a couple of players for reasons ranging from lack of production to high salaries, or in some cases both.
But that's not all that's under consideration for the Bears in the current climate of labor uncertainty.
With $104.9 million committed to players currently on the roster for 2011, the Bears are one of 20 teams around the league with more than $100 million already devoted to players for the upcoming season -- assuming there is one -- and the numbers don't even count toward the soon-to-come salary cap for free agents, franchise players (there's still disagreement between the league and union about whether the tags will even be applicable) or rookies.
It's still unknown what the cap for 2011 will be once a new CBA is reached. In 2007, the salary cap was $109 million, and increased to $116 million for 2008, and $128 million for 2009, the last capped season. The Bears allocated a reported $131.9 million in the uncapped 2010 season.
But based on the salary-cap increases of the past three capped seasons, the Bears likely won't find themselves in danger of going over the new cap once there's a new CBA. That doesn't mean the team is operating without taking the salary cap into consideration when planning for the future though.
Although the Bears have held preliminary discussions with representatives for running back Matt Forte on a contract extension, several of the team's players who are free agents still haven't even heard from the organization in recent days about possible returns, according to multiple NFL and team sources.
In addition to working out a lucrative extension for Forte and possibly safety Chris Harris, the team still has to find ways to bring back key veteran free-agent starters such as defensive tackle Anthony Adams, center Olin Kreutz and safety Danieal Manning while determining whether to bring back high-priced players such as defensive tackle Tommie Harris and running back Chester Taylor, or key contributors like special-teams ace Corey Graham and restricted free-agent quarterback Caleb Hanie.
Tommie Harris has two years remaining on a four-year, $40 million extension and is due a $2.5 million bonus before June 1. Taylor, meanwhile, is reportedly on the chopping block after receiving $7 million last season as part of a four-year, $12.5 million contract signed last March to be the backup to Forte.
It's certainly not out of the realm of possibility for Taylor to be on the way out, but a league source said the running back is expected to remain a Bear.
Besides that, the $7 million for Taylor is already spent, which begs the question: What type of production did the team expect from a backup? The fact he's scheduled to make $1.25 million in base salary in 2011 and $25,000 in a workout bonus would also make the decision to release him somewhat of a head scratcher if there's not a capable -- and cheaper -- alternative waiting in the wings.
Harris told "The Afternoon Saloon" on ESPN 1000 at the Super Bowl that "no one from the organization has talked to me about making any decisions. This is a time where the less you say is better."
Part of that stems from the widespread uncertainty for both the players and the organization.
The Bears have 48 players under contract, and it's difficult to fill out a roster by signing their own free agents, outside free agents, and draft picks while trying to maneuver within the unknown parameters of a yet-to-be-reached CBA that will include a salary cap, and possibly two additional games in 2011.
"Business as usual," Bears general manager Jerry Angelo said at the end of the season. "Like everybody else, we've just got to plan accurately."

No joke, Harris making an impact
Otherwise, hilarity might ensue.
Asked whether three sacks over the team's last two outings provided vindication from criticism fired his way in the regular season, Harris launched into thoughts about food dispensing systems.
"Uh, I don't eat from vending machines. I don't know much about vending machines," Harris said before finally recognizing the tenor of the question. "Oh, vindication. Vindication. No, it's not vindication. [The] NFC championship was on the line. You've got to get the win. You have to seize the opportunity."
Harris definitely did that against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, dropping quarterback Matt Hasselbeck twice for losses of 16 yards. The increase in production comes after a slow start to the regular season that resulted in Harris being moved out of the starting lineup.
Harris was battling weakness in his knee earlier in the season, but the injury strengthened, so did Harris. Prior to the team's Dec. 12 loss to New England, Harris approached the coaching staff and urged it to re-insert him into the starting lineup. Although he's posted just eight tackles since then, Harris has generated three sacks and has been a force against the run.
"Tommie Harris has been through a lot," Bears coach Lovie Smith said Monday. "To see him have a game like that ... a lot of flash plays. Hopefully that will continue."
Perhaps the comedy remains a mainstay in Harris' repertoire as well.
As Harris' session broke up with reporters following the game, the defensive lineman put a meaty arm around the female radio reporter, who originally asked the question.
"I heard what you asked," Harris said, smiling. "It was just a joke."
Not to mention a fun way to kick off a long week of coverage headed into Sunday's Bears-Packers matchup.
Bears-Seahawks: Five things we learned
CHICAGO -- Here are five things we learned following the Chicago Bears 35-24 divisional round victory over the Seattle Seahawks.
1. Jay Cutler passed the first test: Cutler wasn't perfect. And if Cutler throws that goal line pick in the first half, an errant throw dropped by Jordan Babineaux, maybe the game takes on a different feel. But the Bears' quarterback certainly made big plays in the first playoff game of his professional career and should be applauded for the overall effort. Until Mike Martz got goofy in the second half, the Bears complimented Cutler with a balanced running attack and pretty decent pass protection, two keys to any quarterback's success in the postseason. Cutler even morphed into Tim Tebow on two running plays that resulted in touchdowns. But as always with Cutler, the most important stat was zero turnovers. Atlanta's Matt Ryan showed everybody Saturday night how not to beat the Packers: turn the ball over. Cutler was careless with the football in Week 17 at Lambeau Field, and the Bears lost. If Cutler can protect the ball in the NFC Championship Game, the Bears have a good shot at advancing to their second Super Bowl under Lovie Smith.
2. Charles Tillman took the rematch: I don't care if Mike Williams caught two touchdowns, Charles Tillman won the battle against the Seattle wide receiver. Unlike in Week 6, the Bears played tighter coverage against the Seahawks wideouts, and Tillman pestered Williams all over the field the entire afternoon. Matt Hasselbeck targeted Williams a game-high 13 times, but connected on only four of those throws for a measly 15 yards. While Williams appeared to be loafing, Tillman played like this game was one of the biggest of his career. Obviously, next week represents a big step up in class with Greg Jennings and Donald Driver, but Tillman showed Sunday he can still be an effective shut-down cornerback when required.
4. Tommie Harris can make an impact: This did not look like the guy who was a healthy scratch when the Bears played the Packers at Soldier Field in Week 3. Coming into the playoff matchup with Seattle, most people assumed Julius Peppers would the most impactful Bears defensive lineman. Wrong. It was Harris. The defensive tackle led the team in sacks (2), tackles for a loss (2) and quarterback hits (2), according to the NFL stat book distributed in the press box. The Bears may decide to cut ties with Harris after the season, but Sunday showed the former Pro Bowler still has life left in those legs. Imagine if the Bears can get that push up the middle from Harris next week against Aaron Rodgers. That would certainly help the overall defensive effort. If Harris is done in Chicago, what better way to go out than to help this team reach the Super Bowl, which would be a first for Harris. Remember, he was on injured reserve when the Bears made their Super Bowl run in 2006.
5. John Carlson's injury was a big loss for Seattle: First of all, it's good to hear Carlson and Marcus Trufant are okay after both had to leave the field on stretchers. But you simply cannot overstate how much losing Carlson in the first quarter threw the Seahawks off their game on offense. One veteran Bears defender said in the postgame locker room that without Carlson, Seattle lost its ability to run numerous formations and attempt numerous plays that otherwise might have been successful vs. the Bears' defense. It's hard to understand why Carlson decided to jump in the air when running toward the sidelines, since Danieal Manning clearly was in position to cut off the edge. If surrendering the 58-yard touchdown pass to Olsen wasn't bad enough, watching Carlson get carted off the field sucked any remaining momentum out of the Seahawks. For all practical purposes, they were done with 11:40 left to play in the opening quarter.
Harris rebounds from early struggles
CHICAGO -- Competing in an NFC Championship Game is a new experience for Bears defensive tackle Tommie Harris.
"It doesn't get any bigger than Bears vs. Packers, but being in the NFC Championship Game is truly a blessing for me because last time we were here I was watching," Harris said. "It really means a lot to me to have this opportunity, so I need to seize this opportunity."
Harris seized his opportunity against Seattle and finished the game with team highs in sacks (2), tackles for losses (2) and quarterback hits (2).
A far cry from the player who was a healthy scratch when the Bears battled Green Bay on Sept. 27.
"Tommie has worked hard each week," Bears head coach Lovie Smith said. "We haven't gotten the production that we have wanted, that he has wanted, throughout. All you can do is look at how he has practiced. He has been on top of everything. He has no complaints about his preparation at all. Normally if you just keep working hard, eventually, things start falling your way a little bit. In the last two games of course, with him getting sacks, hopefully it will keep going. Tommie is a good football player."
Streaking/Slumping: Week 17
Third quarter:Bears 3, Packers 3
The Packers tied the game with 2:43 remaining in the third quarter on a 23-yard field goal from Mason Crosby to cap a six-play, 39-yard drive.
Horrid offense by the Bears paved the way.
Jay Cutler threw an interception to Packers safety Charles Peprah in the quarter, suffered his third sack of the day, and finished with a passer rating of 49.3. Interestingly, after producing back-to-back outings with 100-plus passer ratings from Nov. 28 to Dec. 5, the quarterback followed them with a 32.9 passer rating against the Patriots.
Cutler is coming off two consecutive games in which he generated passer ratings of 104.2 or better.

Eighteen-year-old Mingus Union High School graduate Hunter Zwart has made the best of his summer free time the last few weeks, playing in a few of the most prestigious baseball tournaments a player could ever be a part of.
Born in Cottonwood and a product of the Verde Valley Little League, Zwart had one heck of a senior season for the Marauders, hitting .467 with a teamleading nine home runs and 41 RBIs while recording 11 doubles and three triples along the way.
In 40⅔ innings pitched, Zwart was 5-1 while boasting a 2.58 ERA, allowing only 32 hits and striking out 38 batters.
Those numbers on the baseball diamond earned Zwart a first team All-Region selection and he was unanimously voted MVP.
"I was actually surprised when they said I was MVP. There were a few guys from Sinagua that I thought were going to win it," Zwart said.
A three-year varsity letter- winner, Zwart was selected to play in the 4A-II North-South All-Star game on June 5 which his team won, 18-9.
An avid moviegoer, hunter and outdoorsman, Zwart finds time in between playing baseball for various teams to hang out with his friends, something he loves to do.
Coming this weekend, Zwart is scheduled to travel to Oklahoma to play in the Heartland Classic with the Arizona All-Stars.
He currently plays in a Connie Mack Baseball League and in two weeks, Zwart is scheduled to travel to Georgia to play in the World Wood Bat Tournament.
Of course when December rolls around, the biggest baseball tournament of Zwart's life will come about, as he was chosen to play for a USA Select team in the Goodwill Games in Australia.
In the meantime, Zwart is planning to go to Arizona Western College in the fall where he will patrol center field for the Matadors come springtime.
"I'm really looking forward to playing in all the tournaments coming up. Things have been great and I love baseball. It's something I want to do and will hopefully get to do for a long time," Zwart said.

This little guy came from a family of Ragdoll Mixes. He was the only one who didn't look like a Ragdoll mix, yet all of his 4 siblings look very much like Ragdoll Mix so it's definitely in him! He was dumped onto my block with his 4 siblings. I rescued two including him b/c he was friendlier. He was very scared first few days but has warmed up very well. He likes to play. I have toys here for him, he gets bored easily b/c he was used to being outside. He LOVES being in the screened in porch room. He is very friendly. He is a complete mush, and loves attention from his human companion. He will cry if left inside a room where someone is ... (Read More)sleeping, if someone else outside that room is still awake b/c he will want to be near that person. His coat is super silky soft, and it seems more hypoallergenic. I have never in my life rescued a cat that had a coat this soft. He is a beautiful cat, and complete mush. He tried warming up to my 10 year old cats and they hissed at him, but he had tried cuddling up to them and playing. I felt bad for him, aww. He just wants to play or find a playmate. Definitely enjoys being in the house with my other cats though. Seems like he wants a pack of his own, so would probably do well with other indoor cats. He is really loving the raw food I have been feeding him. I offer him canned and raw food, and he eats a mix of both. Sometimes I put dry food down, but dry food causes crystals in male cats so I don't feed too much of it. I offer both Friskies and higher quality canned food. He definitely likes the higher quality canned food best. This guy is one of the sweetest cats I have ever rescued. I named him Magic b/c his love is magical to be around. He really has such a special vibration about him. I can't explain it. He is full of so much love. Please let me know if you would like to come meet him. He is still warming up, and can be shy upon first meeting him, but would warm up over time. Call or text Emily at 727-478-5579 and email to firstname.lastname@example.com *Can be adopted with or without his sister Mirabella also listed on this RescueMe account. (Less)

Hyden earns congressional award
Date: October 4, 2012
by: Observer Staff
East Manatee Fire Rescue Training Officer Tim Hyden, a Braden Woods resident, was honored with the Congressional Career Service Award Sept. 17, during the inaugural 13th Congressional District Fire & Rescue and EMS Awards.
Congressman Vern Buchanan, R-Longboat Key, established the awards to give special recognition to fire-and-rescue and EMS officers, departments or units for exceptional achievement.
"To be a first responder is a demanding profession that requires sacrifice, courage and a dedication to serve others," Buchanan said. "Every day, brave men and women put themselves in harm's way to protect our citizens, property and society. They deserve our gratitude and respect. I believe these awards are a fitting tribute to our first responders and a reminder of the important role they play in our communities."
An independent panel chose the award winners.

Introducing Emerald Heritage And A Chance To Win Your Own Little Piece Of Ireland
Have you ever dreamed of owning a little piece of Ireland? Well if so, today's your day to enter our Emerald Heritage giveaway for a chance to become the proud owner of a little plot of Irish land. I'm delighted to introduce you to a new and unusual idea. Emerald Heritage is offering for sale small plots of land within the Glens of Antrim, in an effort to protect this area from deforestation and to promote regeneration of this natural wildlife habitat….. Read more and enter the giveaway here.
Carrot And Parsnip Mash
Mashed carrots and parsnips were a frequent dinnertime side in our house when I was a little girl. And let me confess, I hated the mixture. But no matter how much I begged my Mom to spare me this weekly "treat", these root vegetables regularly appeared alongside my roast chicken and potatoes. After many years I have grown to really appreciate this Irish vegetable combination….. Read more and get the complete recipe here.
Chilblains, Hot Water Bottles And Other Chilly Memories Of An Irish Childhood
Chilblains were part and parcel of an Irish childhood for many when I was growing up. Memories of red, itchy, inflamed toes still linger for my generation, but painful, chilblain flash blacks still haunt the generation that went before me….. Read more here.

Irish Cultural Artifacts
Ireland is a country rich in heritage and culture, and is well known for its Celtic history, music, and time-honored clothing. From aran sweaters to claddagh rings, many of the patterns and designs used in traditional Irish clothing and jewelry have hidden symbolism and can be traced to intriguing Irish stories and legends…… Read more here.
Introducing A New Social Community For Movers To Ireland
I often receive e-mails from readers asking me for tips about moving to Ireland. Finding a trusted, thorough, and well researched resource was not easy, well not until now. The Ireland Move Club has been specially designed to help answer the questions that arise along the way, when planning a move to Ireland…… Read more here.
Zucchini And Leek Soup
Zucchini and leeks combine to make a wonderfully green soup. Light and refreshing, this soup can be served hot or cold, but being ever so Irish, I like it hot. Inspired by the more traditional Irish recipe for potato and leek soup, I love to make this soup when I have lots of zucchini on hand. Or perhaps I should give this soup its European name, courgette and leek soup…… Read more and get the full recipe here.
Curried Parsnip Crisps
Curried parsnip crisps are a perfect garnish for soup, a healthier alternative to store bought crisps or chips, or a simple tasty snack. Baked in the oven, these crispy vegetable wafers can be seasoned and spiced up whatever way you choose. Parsnip crisps – that's what I like to call these tasty morsels, but I suppose in America they might be called parsnip chips. However, these shavings are thin and crispy, not thick and chunky like an Irish chip, so the name parsnip crisps describes them perfectly. And you won't believe how easy they are to make…… Read the full recipe here.
Irish Rainbow Blessings
Rainbows remind us of possibilities, opportunities and hope. Rainbows are God's promise – His miracle. In the midst of life's storms it is often hard to spot a rainbow, but I think the most important thing is to remember, these miracles of the sky only appear after the storm. In Ireland rainbows symbolize blessings from heaven. In today's post, I share some wonderful photos of Irish rainbows, which I've paired with some traditional old Irish rainbow blessings and sayings…… Read more here.
Rutabaga and Carrot Soup
Rutabagas and carrots make a comforting, slightly sweet soup. The combination of deep orange carrots and pale yellow rutabaga flesh, produces an amber colored soup, just perfect for fall. And so, to kick off my soup making recipes for this autumn season, I thought it might be a good idea to start with a simple, easy-to-make soup, using the rutabaga, a vegetable I believe is not fully appreciated in America….

Top Ten Reasons Why Tourists Love Ireland
I count amongst the millions of people worldwide, who simply love Ireland. My deep feelings of connection are understandable, since I was born in Dublin. However, after living in America for over twenty years, I have come to realize, many who have never even set foot on Irish soil, feel the same affinity for our little island. And so today, I thought I would explore the top ten reasons why I think tourists love Ireland …. Read more here.
"My Ireland" is a place of love which invokes a deep sense of identity. "Mother Ireland", as we so lovingly call her, will always influence my state of mind, no matter where I wander. She instills in me a life-long feeling of connection. "My Ireland" is a collection of stories and memories that have shaped my life.
"Memories, converted into stories, can become a monument of sorts
to the remembered."
- Christy Kenneally
"My America" is a place of acceptance, which invokes a deep sense of pride. I have chosen to live in a small state in the heartland of America. In Kentucky, we live outside the limelight, and may not be considered part of "mainstream" America. Here I present the stories and images of "My America" – Smokey Mountains, natural wonders, and great rural beauty. I have learned we are as integral a part of the 'Real America', as our more famous urban neighbors. Welcome to my American Dream.

Leeming, canning vale, willetton, bullcreek info?
Started by Roo~~ , Jan 27 2013 05:28 PM

Hoping to hear from anyone in Leeming, Canning Vale, Willetton, possibly Bullcreek, especially those with children at public schools in the area.
Are there certain areas to avoid within those suburbs? Are you happy with the schools? Do you know if they have provisions for gifted children?
Is it possible to get a decent size house (4 x 2) as well as a yard? We're coming from a 1/4 acre block but don't need it to be that big! If not, are there plenty of parks around? Is everything you need close enough - shops, doctor etc?
I've heard mixed reviews high school wise re Canning Vale College - any thoughts on that?
Posted 27 January 2013 - 05:34 PM
I grew up in Willetton - went to Willeton PS and SHS. There's enough parkland around. Willetton houses have decent front and backyards.
There isnt any dodgy parts to Willetton that I remember. There's Southlands for shopping, cinema etc. The 884 and 885 bus route if it still exists.
All of those suburbs sound ok to me. Someone else might have more to say on them though. I give Willetton the thumbs up!
Posted 27 January 2013 - 05:58 PM
Hi there,
I live in Canning Vale. I love the suburb. Nice community feel about it. Lots of parks in the area and lots of young families. We are close to Livingston Shopping Centre and also a smaller shopping complex which has IGA, doctors surgery, etc. The only issue I think may put people off is the noise from air traffic (though I hardly notice it now).
Housing wise it appears that a lot of the homes are built on small to medium blocks which does not leave room for huge backyards, generally speaking.
My boys go to Campbell Primary. The school is fine. No complaints and the boys love it there. It is an independent public primary. I find the staff very approachable. The school does do testing for PEAC.
My oldest son attended Canning Vale College from Year 9 to Year 12 and just graduated last year. Middle school had an open plan approach in the classrooms which wasn't the best to be honest, but that changed in senior school. I'm not sure if they have reviewed this approach recently. DS never had any problems there. He achieved a very good ATAR result and was accepted into university into his first preference. I believe the school has a very good graduation rate.
Good luck
edit: Just spoke to son who said the school no longer has open plan classes.

We live in willetton and where our house is we are in both willetton and rossmoyne high school zone, the top two public high schools.
Our DS is at Shelley primary as we lived in Shelley before buying in willetton, but have heard good things about willetton primary.
Posted 27 January 2013 - 11:35 PM
We live in Willetton, My kids go to Rostrata PS. Great school, not sure about gifted children's programs as we have only been here 6 months. We are also in the catchment area for Willetton HS, which has a fantastic reputation.
We are in a largish 4x1, with a large back yard and front garden.
There are plenty of parks and open spaces, there is also a BMX/scooter park by the Southlands shopping centre.
Plenty of doctors surgeries and dentist around. (We go to Willetton medical practice and Southlands dental). There are two main shopping centres, Southlands shopping centre, which has Coles, Woolies, Best and less and a few other shops. There is also Stockland Riverton which has BigW and woolies and some other popular shops including Red dot shop and d*ck Smiths.
We love living in Willetton

Both my husband and I went to Willetton PS and SHS too. I don't know about the 884 or 885 anymore (that was years ago when they had the old bus terminal across from Chicken Treat) but I know that the 98 and 99 circle routes go through there.
It's a great area, not sure about housing there now, most were 3 x 1 but I would think that people have extended out the back, I've also noticed that some older houses have been knocked down and new houses built in their place.
Southlands has everything you need and has the bonus of a movie cinema.
Posted 27 January 2013 - 11:42 PM
All those suburbs are good suburbs (and pricey). Willetton / Bullcreek are slightly older, so you are starting to look at houses from the late 60's / early 70's, that have either been renovated, or left as is (eeeek!)
Rossmoyne and Willetton high schools are the 2 best in the state, so house prices in those zoned areas are significantly higher. It's also sometimes difficult to actually buy property in those areas as people buy just for the schools.
Bullcreek and Leeming residents go to Leeming High school, which is a great high school.
Be careful with "Canning Vale" as some realtors are selling 'Southern River' as Canning Vale, and it's NOT Canning Vale.
Check the suburb and the post code!
You will pay for these suburbs, they're close to the freeways and highways and with a new hospital opening down the road shortly, house prices are starting to rocket already.
Posted 28 January 2013 - 03:56 AM
All 3 primary schools in Leeming (West Leeming, Leeming and Banksia Park) are good, they are smaller schools with really good school communities. The only formal program in any of them I believe for gifted students is PEAC, it starts at year 5 after testing in year 4 but I gather it is totally underfunded and it is less than the top 2% who get in. These 3 schools get good NAPLAN results and I know BP have a number of gifted students.
Many friends who live in Bull Creek have moved their children to Oberthur Primary, however some are now a little nervous about this as it is starting a chinese language immersion program, I don't know much about it though.
Leeming is a little newer than BullCreek and Willetton so housing styles reflect this, any of those suburbs still have decent block sizes though. Canningvale is such a vast newer area that there is huge variation, some lovely homes, some little boxes and some in between.
For High Schools I think I'd prefer to be in the zones for Rossmoyne, Willetton or Leeming High than Canningvale. It's going to be much harder to cross boundaries for high schools in the next few years with the Year 7s starting at high school in 2015 pushing the schools above capacity, there is talk that even the academic entry programs will have to be wound back to reduce numbers.

I grew up in Leeming, moved to Atwell (and hated it TBH) and now have a child and have recently moved back to Leeming.
I would live in Willetton, Bull Creek or Leeming before Canning Vale. Canning Vale is nice, and obviously newer, however your options for secondary schooling are limited. Canning Vale College does not have a good reputation, there have been several changes admin wise in recent years and I have heard terrible stories regarding behaviour management. I would avoid at all costs. Carey College is a good school (if you can afford it) but you may find it hard to get in there due to it's popularity.
The primary schools are good but in my opinion, Ranford is the best one. Campbell is also good but it is huge and continuing to grow, but they don't have enough space. Ranford has excellent teachers and good kids.
Willetton, Leeming and Rossmoyne HS's are excellent. I would call them and get information about their specific gifted and talented programs. In the primary schools, it really depends upon the resourcing at a school level and what the Principal wishes to dedicate time to. I *think* it is Caladenia PS that has recently opened a gifted and talented programs where the students attend full time. You would need to check on this though.
In the older suburbs, you can definitely get decent sized houses. In Leeming, we recently paid $720 K for a fully renovated home, excellent location and big block. You would be paying around the same for Bull Creek, in some parts, but this is because the Rossmoyne High School has an excellent reputation. They are older houses though.
The primary schools in Willetton, Bull Creek and Leeming are all fantastic. We specifically moved so that my daughter can go to West Leeming (amongst other reasons). In any of those suburbs, you have SO much around you - parks, public pools, shops, movies and you are so close to Garden City, Fremantle, the freeway to get north and south and really good public transport.
The shopping, libraries etc are fantastic.
We love it in Leeming and would not move! PM me if you want further info.
Posted 04 February 2013 - 03:21 PM
We have bought in Willetton.
There is a small pocket of willetton that is in the Rossmoyne HS zone.
Be sure and check your boundaries. I rand the school to triple check the boundaries and they are on their website.
Willetton HS also has a great reputation.
Willetton Primary school - have heard good things and it is a feeder school into the Rossmoyne HS.
Has anyone had their sons in joey scouts in the area??
Any recc's would be appreciated. TIA.
Posted 04 February 2013 - 10:18 PM
We bought in Willetton a year ago. We moved from interstate and wanted to be in Willetton SHS zone. We bought a fully renovated 4x2 on just over 750sqm. We really like it here. My eldest has just started school (as in today!) at Rostrata Primary and talking to neighbours it has a really good reputation and programs.

We live in Southern River, so not in any of those
Just wanted to say that Bull Creek PS is a designated PEAC centre so if your children are gifted, you could have them attend there wihtout any travel hassles to get to PEAC courses.

I can barely find words to express the disgust I have for people who torture animals. This article covers the story… Cheyenne Cherry, a 17-year-old non-contributing zero, breaks into an apartment with a 14-year-old… trashes the place… destroys furniture… steals DVDs… and kills a kitten in the oven!?! WTF!? After her court plea deal she goes outside and taunts the crowd. Maybe I'm over-reacting… but I think if someone sends me a video of this girl being roasted in an oven I'll actually host the video on one of my websites for as long as the legal system will allow me to.

Gospel songs, prayers helped U.S. pair survive 15-hour ordeal at sea
"It was a real test of my faith," says man who spent night with friend adrift off Massachusetts coast after their boat capsized.

Share via Email
PORTLAND, MAINE—Prayers, scripture verses and gospel songs helped two men survive a harrowing 15-hour ordeal of waves and winds until they were rescued by a passing fishing boat after their boat capsized in the chilly waters off the Massachusetts coast, one of the men said Sunday.
The New Hampshire men spent Friday night sitting on a plank over two hulls of a 25-foot trimaran as waves left them soaked and cold.
George Reynolds told The Associated Press that he and Fred Schaeffer prayed for strength — and calm seas and winds — as their muscles cramped and they shivered violently, trying to stay warm.
"It was a real test of my faith," said Reynolds, of Derry, N.H., in a telephone interview from his home. "I said, 'Lord, whatever your will is, I'm in the mercy of your hands, and if this is going to be the end, I'm trusting in your mercy.'"
Reynolds, 62, and Schaeffer, who's in his late 40s, put Reynolds' boat, the Ark Angel, in the water in Salem, Mass., on Friday with plans to sail to Boston. But with winds blowing hard and the boat flying along at more than 25 knots (46 kilometres per hour), they decided partway through the trip that it would be safer to turn back toward Salem.
A strong gust of wind flipped the boat over between 4 and 4:30 p.m., a few kilometres from the mainland and more 1.5 kilometres from the nearest island. Schaeffer's cellphone wouldn't work after it got wet.
Reynolds took off his life vest and tried waving it to get the attention of a far-away fishing boat, but the wind blew it out of his hands into the water. So he and his best friend put a plank across the hull and hunkered down, back to back to give each other warmth and support.
Through the night, with the temperature dropping into the single digits Celsius, the water lapped onto their plank and on occasion crashed over them.
Reynolds, who owns a small welding fabrication business, said he's been teaching Bible courses at a New Hampshire prison for more than 25 years and that he and Schaeffer attend church together. So they prayed a lot, sang and did some soul-searching as they kept each other awake, worried they might fall into the water.
Saturday morning's sunrise was a welcome sight. "When the sun rose, that was the most beautiful sunrise I've ever seen," Reynolds said.
Sometime after 7 a.m., they got the attention of a passing fishing boat, which rescued them and brought them to shore in Salem. There, they were checked over by emergency medical technicians before they drove home, shaken up but unharmed.
Reynolds said being stranded with Schaeffer helped make all the difference.
"I'm thankful for my faith and for my best friend Freddy," Reynolds said. "We were able to encourage each other. We really didn't get negative."

This shows the atomic structure of an ARF/DNA complex. Auxins control the growth and development of plants through ARF
Credit: (Author: R. Boer, IRB/CSIC)
A joint study published in Cell by the teams headed by Miquel Coll at the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona) and the Institute of Molecular Biology of CSIC, both in Barcelona, and Dolf Weijers at the University of Wageningen, in the Netherlands, unravels the mystery behind how the plant hormones called auxins activate multiple vital plant functions through various gene transcription factors.Auxins are plant hormones that control growth and development, that is to say, they determine the size and structure of the plant. Among their many activities, auxins favor cell growth, root initiation, flowering, fruit setting and delay ripening. Auxins have practical applications and are used in agriculture to produce seedless fruit, to prevent fruit drop, and to promote rooting, in addition to being used as herbicides. The biomedical applications of these hormones as anti-tumor agents and to facilitate somatic cell reprogramming (the cells that form tissues) to stem cells are also being investigated.
At the molecular level, the hormone serves to unblock a transcription factor, a DNA-binding protein, which in turn activates or represses a specific group of genes. Some plants have more than 20 distinct auxin-regulated transcription factors. They are called ARFs (Auxin Response Factors) and control the expression of numerous plant genes in function of the task to be undertaken, that is to say, cell growth, flowering, root initiation, leaf growth etc.
Using the Synchrotron Alba, near Barcelona, and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, in Grenoble, Dr. Miquel Coll, a structural biologist and his team analyzed the DNA binding mode used by various ARFs. For this purpose, the scientists prepared crystals of complexes of DNA and ARF proteins obtained by Dolf Weijers team in Wageningen, and then shot the crystals with high intensity X-rays in the synchrotron to resolve their atomic structure. The resolution of five 3D structures has revealed why a given transcription factor is capable of activating a single set of genes, while other ARFs that are very similar with only slight differences trigger a distinct set.
"Each ARF recognizes and adapts to a particular DNA sequence through two binding arms or motifs that are barrel-shaped, and this adaptation differs for each ARF," explains Roeland Boer, postdoctoral researcher in Miquel Coll's group at IRB Barcelona, and one of the first authors of the study.
The ARF binding mode to DNA has never been described in bacteria or animals. "It appears to be exclusive to plants, but we cannot rule out that it is present in other kingdoms. Our finding is highly relevant because we have revealed the ultimate effect of a hormone that controls plant development on DNA, that is to say, on genes." says Miquel Coll.Reference article: Structural basis for DNA binding specificity by the auxin-dependent ARF transcription factors
