Testifying Before Legislative Committees
Testifying Before Legislative Committees
Before the Committee Hearing
To find out when your bill will be up for hearing, you can monitor committee agendas, but these do not generally provide much advance notice. Typically agendas are posted online in the afternoon for committee meetings the following day. You can check out committee agendas online at the
State of Idaho Reading Calendars and Agendas
You can also check the AIC Bill Tracker to see if the bill has been scheduled for a hearing. The most effective way to determine when a particular bill is up for hearing is to check with the committee secretary.
Read the bill and carefully plan your testimony. You can find the bills online (arranged numerically and by topic) at the
State of Idaho Legislative Tracking
You will be more effective getting your message across if you have prepared your testimony in writing for distribution to committee members. You can then orally summarize your points to conserve time.
At the Committee Hearing
Be early and be prepared to wait. Many committees meet upon adjournment of the House or Senate, which means that you may have to wait for legislators to finish their business on the floor.
Sign-up sheets are available at all committee hearings. Be sure to sign your name when you arrive, indicate your position on the legislation and whether you intend to testify.
The chair will announce when a particular bill is coming before the committee for discussion, and the bill's sponsor is the first to speak. After testimony from the sponsor, the chair will ask to hear from those who have indicated on the sign-up sheet that they wish to testify about the particular bill.
Begin your testimony by addressing the chair and committee members. State your name, address, and why you are there. For example: "Mr. (or Madam) Chairman, members of the committee, my name is Pat Q. Public and I'm from Emmett. I am in favor of this bill because..."
Be prepared to answer questions from legislators. Respond to questions as best you can and don't be embarrassed if you do not have a specific answer. When answering a question, always address your answer through the chair: "Mr. (or Madam) Chairman and Representative Smith, I appreciate your question..."
Be courteous and brief, and try not to repeat testimony offered by previous speakers. Don't be offended if legislators come and go during a meeting. They have other commitments including the need, at times, to present information in other committee hearings occurring simultaneously.
After You Testify
Do not expect immediate committee action. The bill may be held until another day. If the vote on your bill is postponed and the chair does not announce a date for further consideration, check back with the committee secretary about future scheduling. You are welcome to stay after the discussion on your bill and listen until the end of the committee meeting.

Nell Newman—and everyone else in the company—enjoys good coffee. When looking for the right roaster to partner with she turned to Vermont's Green Mountain Coffee, Inc., a leader in the specialty coffee industry. This partnership focuses on the two companies shared philanthropic goals while offering an exceptional product line from which to choose. The seven Fair Trade organic coffees are made from the world's finest handpicked arabica beans. The line includes:

"Fair Trade certification means that farmers in coffee producing countries worldwide can enjoy a better life. Grown and processed according to the strictest organic standard, these delightful coffees are gentle on the earth and pleasing to your palate."

Saveur magazine voted Newman's Own Organics Nell's Breakfast Blend one of the top nine coffees out of hundreds that they sampled from around the world. Read the whole article here:
Newmans Own Organics, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, and Coffee Kids have teamed up to help women in Oaxaca, Mexico through an innovative agricultural program which helps women raise chickens. The project provides them with a means to diversify and strengthen their household economy as well as improve their family diet through organic meat and eggs. "This is a wonderful project to be involved with," say Nell. "Chickens and eggs are an inexpensive form of complete protein. I know how delicious freshly-laid eggs are from personal experience since I have six pampered chickens of my own. Supporting our partners through royalties earned from the sale of our products is an integral part of our corporate mission."
The coffees are available through Green Mountain Coffees website.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Think it's about time manufacturers bring back genuine three-doors shooting brake variant.
According to Autocar, A four-seat coupe version of the all-new Mazda 6 is under consideration. When rendering this Mazda 6 Coupe, I've shortened the sedan's rear overhang. I've also reduced the height. The front has a smaller grill, while the rear number plate housing was moved to the bumper.
I love the Mazda Takeri Concept. And if this concept previews the next Mazda 6, my rendering shows it doesn't take much of "productionising". Mazda is seriously getting better with each new generation of the 6.

What are traditional Indian kitchen utensils and accessories?These include: Chhalni, Belan, Chakla, Chakku, Chhalni, Chimta, Gandasa, Kaddu kas, Kalchi, Phirni, Masala Daani, Palta, Paraat, Pakkad, and Pauni.
Bonti, Chakki, Hamam Dasta, Sil Batta, and Tarazoo are almost obsolete
Patra and Pirhi are the only pieces of furniture used in traditional kitchen
Atta Chhalni (Flour Sifter)Atta (Flour) Chhalini (Sifter) is used to separate bran and even bugs from the flour. Sifter is also used to mix flour with salt and baking soda or powder to uniformly disperse the ingredients. It is approximately 8" in diameter, and 3" high. Traditional Atta Chhalni has either Tin or wooden band with fine wire mesh. Nowadays, the band and the mesh are both made of stainless steel

Operator must either squat on her haunches, or sit on the floor with one knee raised-up pressing wooden base with the foot to hold Bonti firmly in place on the floor. The operator would hold food with both hands and slide it against the stationary blade to peel, slice, or chop. Holding food with both hands gave a good control over the thickness of the slice or peel. One can really chop Mustard greens by slicing the bunch held in hand very thin. Use of Bonti does require practice.
There is no standard configuration of Bonti. The wooden base, the mounting mechanism, and the blade all vary.

Changing face of Indian kitchenware
Materials- Just like Kansa had disappeared during 1950s; the brass, bronze, and copper have been replaced with stainless steel. This eliminated the need to coat the inside with tin.

text: 3 IT SCORED A HOME GOAL IN THE FINAL THIRD!MovieAddict | 25/06/2010 | See all MovieAddict's reviews (1336)Top 10 Reviewer Top 10 DVD Reviewer You don't have to like Football to enjoy this trilogy, as although not original is mostly a crowd pleasing underdog story.Back in 2004 there was much hype about this planned trilogy of movies, as we follow young Santiago Munez from pennyless Mexican with a talent for football from being spottted and then trying out for Newcastle UTD ( poor choice!) then to the Euro's and in the fanal movie the world cup. Mostly the trilogy keeps it's word but scores a home Goal in the final part.GOAL! 2004Although not original this is a great underdog story, and the in game action is brilliant, with a clever blend of green screen and actors playing along with real players and a bonus of a brilliant soundtrack it's impossible not to get carried along by it all.This could be the best Football movie ever made.a Winner! ****GOAL II Living the dream.2006Not as good as the first film, and lacks the energy, but this movie shows us the darker side to the game, with all the press intrusions faulse stories and all the trappings of fame.With all the stories that have been in the press about Ashly Coal and John Terry the movie seems to hit the nail on the head.Things get back on track with the in game action and again brilliant soundtrack and a to be continued ending that leaves you begging for the final chapter.***GOAL III Taking on the world 2009We have followed Santiago's progress through two movies, why side line him to a camio and not conclude his story?The movie is very frustrating as it seems to go back on what the original idea to the trilogy intended. We now have to follow a dull new story with new characters, the film looks cheap and rushed. A huge disappointment for the final chaper that makes the previous film feel redundant as story strands are left hanging, and no propper conlusion to Santiago's story.Home Goal!**The trilogy is like the current England Team as it promises everything but always seem to stumble at the final third.So the third chapter is a disappointment, but the first two movies are crowd pleasing guilty pleasures, and ideal for anyone who want's to salvage what they can from the latest England disappointment at the 2010 South African World Cup.See if you liked.Escape to Victory.Rocky.Rocky Balboa.Invictus.Dodgeball.

Dementia describes a broad range of symptoms and exists in many forms, each with its own cause.
Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies, Parkinson's disease, fronto temporal lobar degeneration, Huntington's disease, Korsakoff's syndrome and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease are all common forms of dementia.
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive, degenerative illness and the most common form of dementia, accounting for about 60% of cases. The cause is unknown, but disease pathology in the brain is characterised by "tangles" of material inside brain cells and deposits or plaques of amyloid protein outside the cells, which interfere with brain messaging and lead to cell death and loss of function. The familial form of Alzheimer's can be inherited from an affected parent, whereas sporadic Alzheimer's disease can affect adults at any age, but usually after 65. This is by far the most common form of Alzheimer's disease and affects people who may not have a family history of the disease.
Vascular dementia refers to dementia related to poor blood supply to areas of the brain and is the secondmost common form of dementia. Dementia with Lewy bodies is caused by the degeneration and death of nerve cells in the brain, which is thought to be linked to abnormal spherical structures inside nerve cells (Lewy bodies). Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) refers to cognitive decline in older people that is beyond what is expected, but not sufficient for a dementia diagnosis. Those with MCI are still very functional but have a 45% chance of experiencing further decline and progressing to Alzheimer's disease.

Not sure to which forum this thread belongs to but I'll post here anyway.
I have two problems with my protection warrior:
1. Survivabilty - I seem to die more often than my fellow druid tank with similar gear to mine
2. DPS - other tank classes druids, and DK's for example outdps me. I do a low 1k-1.1k dps in 10 man raids, and I'm not sure how to improve this.

Lately in the Tinkering Studio we've been thinking about how to translate the work we do in the museum to settings like after school programs and community centers. Scribbling Machines, which started as a PIE project activity and we've continued to tinker with over the years, seems like a perfect activity to try in these situations. Building a scribbling machine uses everyday objects in unusual ways to create a tool that draws out the path of vibrations created by an offset motor. It's a fun way of playing with a phenomenon we experience every time our cellphones ring (there's an offset motor in there to make it vibrate, too). There are tons of variables, such as the placement of the motor on the machine or the length of the weight, which you can experiment with as you build to create infinite combinations and unique drawings.
Setting Up the Space for Building Scribbling Machines
There are a few key things to keep in mind when preparing to do this activity with a group. You'll want to set up spaces for materials, building, and testing. As you set these areas up, consider how they flow and how you can move within the space to go back and forth between trying new materials, building, and testing your changes.
Tips for Facilitating Scribbling Machines
Every child you work with will be different, and will have different needs and challenges when you try any activity. As you facilitate this activity these are things you can ask to encourage testing and deeper exploration. Each learner will have his or her own path to discovery with scribbling machines and you can choose which of these are most appropriate to the individual's exploration. Here are some ideas for ways you can complexify your scribbling machines as you build and some tips for working through tough spots.
Get Stuck
Get Un-Stuck
Expanding This Activity
You may wish to do variations on this activity over several days or weeks. Here are some ideas on how you could approach doing this activity over time.
Tell us what you've tried! We're constantly experimenting with these activities and want you to try new things too. Let us know the discoveries you've made, innovations you've developed, puzzles you've encountered, and more!
For more information, here are links to the PIE Project PDF and the Tinkering Studio website's Scribbling Machines Activity Page.
Hey Lianna, this is a great post! The AVAM education folks are now doing workshops outside the museum, at a local public library in Baltimore: this post will really help them consider Scribbling machines for one of the workshops. Thanks!
This is a wonderful activity. I plan to use it with my class later this year. Thank you for posting it.
Nice write-up Lianna.

SANTA MARIA, Calif. (AP) -- Police say a drug dealer mistakenly sent messages to a California central coast police officer in an attempt to sell methamphetamines.
The Santa Maria officer notified Santa Barbara County sheriff's detectives about the errant text messages early Tuesday. The officer and detectives then set up a meeting with the alleged drug dealer.
Sheriff's spokesman Drew Sugars says they arrested 39-year-old Reymundo Carlos Escobedo and seized about 2 grams of methamphetamine.
A news release says 37-year-old John Martin Silvera, who is Escobedo's suspected methamphetamine supplier, also arrived and was arrested with about 7 grams of methamphetamine.
Escobedo and Silvera remain held on drug charges, including criminal conspiracy. Bail is set at $30,000 each.

WASHINGTON, D.C. March 20, 2013 — The U.S. men's soccer team is returning to play at RFK Stadium in Washington D.C., with Germany as it opponent on June 2. The nation's capital may have not drawn a World Cup qualifying game this time around like Denver, Salt Lake City, Seattle, Columbus (Ohio) and Kansas City (Kan.), but an exhibition against three-time world champion Germany is nothing to sneeze at, and is sure draw a huge crowd to the 62-year-old venue.
The game against Germany is part of U.S. Soccer's centennial celebration and is being dubbed as the "Centennial Celebration Match". The game will see U.S. team coach Jurgen Klinsmann go up against the team he helped win a World Cup in 1990 as a player and coached to the third-place at the World Cup in 2006.
The U.S. team 13-3-4 all-time at RFK and has won the past seven games there (6-0-1). The team last played at RFK against Jamaica, earning a 2-0 victory on June 19, 2011, to advance to the semifinals of the CONCACAF Gold Cup.
The announcement about the game at RFK by U.S. Soccer on Thursday also came with the confirmation of the home venues for the U.S. team's four remaining 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying games.
The American team, which kicks off its home stand in the final round of World Cup qualifying tomorrow night against Costa Rica at sold-out Dick's Sporting Goods Park in Commerce City, Colo., will host the other four opponents in the following venues: June 11 against Panama at CenturyLink Field (Seattle, Wash.); June 18 against Honduras at Rio Tinto Stadium (Sandy, Utah); Sept. 10 against Mexico at Columbus Crew Stadium (Columbus, Ohio); and on Oct. 11, against Jamaica at Sporting Park (Kansas City, Kan.).
The June 11 match against Panama at CenturyLink Park will be only the second World Cup qualifying game in Seattle. Grass will be laid over the artificial turf at the venue for the game.
Rio Tinto, the home of Real Salt Lake, has hosted only one previous U.S. game the team's 2-1 victory against El Salvador on Sept. 5, 2009, in World Cup qualifying.
The U.S. team is 6-0-3 all-time and 5-0-2 in World Cup qualifying at the home of Columbus Crew where the team will face arch rivals Mexico. The U.S. has played Mexico in a total of three World Cup qualifiers in Columbus, winning each one of them to 2-0.
The American team, seeking a place at the World Cup in Brazil next year, caps off the home portion of World Cup qualifying on Oct. 11 against Jamaica at Sporting Park in Kansas City, Kan. The U.S. team most recently rallied for a 3-1 victory against Guatemala on Oct. 16, 2012, to advance to the Final Round of 2014 World Cup qualifying.

Sometimes in life you just have to roll the dice and take a chance but you can be assured of being onto a winner with the Warrior Gambler Combat Kids TF Trainer. Featuring a durable and lightweight PU synthetic upper, this is both durable and comfortable without you having to pay out huge amounts. The inclusion of a deep lacing system provides an enhanced fit and feel to the trainer whilst an Internal Heel Counter means added protection and support where you need it most. One of the subtle yet defining features of the Gambler Combat lays in the heel where Warrior's 'Murderhole Cutouts' are designed for enhanced comfort around the Achilles and micro on-foot adjustment. As with any trainer designed for artificial surfaces, the most important aspect lays beneath the shoe itself. With the Gambler Combat Kids TF, a rubber outsole with an astro tread ensures you have optimum traction and manoeuvrability to suit the demands of the fast-paced artificial game.Players are always seeking a winning look and with a flashy silver and white chequered pattern defining the upper, the addition of cyber yellow pays off in emphatic fashion whilst the plain white adds a more soothing tone wrapped around the toes.Designed to eliminate the level of 'chance' in your game, this trainer allows you to take control of play and stack the odds in your favour.This trainer weighs 201g (UK size 4).

very neat! Can't wait to cry my eyes out watching it lol. It's such a beautiful show
I didn't see anyone had posted this out there so forgive me if it's a duplicate.
The new globe for Illuminations at Epcot has gone live. I had no idea it was being done so quickly. Found a little video on YouTube that I think shows the difference pretty well. I'm sure when looking through human eyes (versus a camera lense) the difference is even more impressive.

9 Yellow Kitchens You'll Love
Give your kitchen a burst of energy with these bright decorating ideas from some of our favorite designers.
Yellow California Kitchen
Natural materials with a patina of age lend this California kitchen a distinctly antiqued feel. A four-by-four-foot chase — a column holding all sorts of electrical wiring and plumbing — runs right through the room and could not be moved. So designer Sandra Bird worked around it, and built it out into four areas: a cooking area with the range, a buffet for the table, a desk, and a baking area in back.

Potassium is a mineral that, among other things, helps your muscles contract, helps regulate fluids and mineral balance in and out of body cells and helps maintain normal blood pressure by blunting the effect of sodium. Potassium may also reduce your risk of recurrent kidney stones and possibly bone loss as we get older.
Guidelines issued by the Institute of Medicine of the National Academies of Science encourage adults to consume of at least 4,700 milligrams of potassium every day. That's almost double what most of us actually consume.
Potassium is found in a wide range of foods, especially fruits and vegetables like leafy greens, vine fruit like tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplant and pumpkins and root vegetables like potatoes and carrots, beans, dairy foods, meat, poultry, fish and nuts.
Reach your recommended daily intake of potassium by frequently adding these foods to your daily menu:

Kentucky Hot Brown Bites - Football Friday
I had my first Kentucky Hot Brown at Bobby Flay's Bar Americain in NYC last year. It was AMAZING! I made a mental note to recreate it at home, but I haven't gotten around to it until now.
This version was inspired by the Club Sandwich Puffs I made earlier this year. We really liked the little bite-sized sandwiches and decided to turn the Hot Brown into a bite-sized treat too. We ate these for dinner, and there were no leftovers. This is a great way to use up any leftover turkey from Thanksgiving, and they would be the perfect addition to your Iron Bowl tailgate on Saturday!!
Kentucky Hot Brown Bites
(Printable Recipe)
Mornay Sauce
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
Pinch of freshly ground pepper
Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
1/2 cup coarsely grated Gruyère or Swiss
Kentucky Hot Brown Bites
1 can refrigerated crescent rolls
1 cup finely chopped turkey
1 cup mornay sauce
2 slices bacon, chopped
1 tomato, diced
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Mornay Sauce:
Melt butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in flour, and cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. (Do not let mixture brown.) Add milk, whisking constantly. Bring to a low boil, and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes more. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Remove from heat, and stir in cheese. Allow to cool slightly.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl combine finely chopped turkey and mornay sauce.
Lightly spray a mini muffin pan with non stick cooking spray.
Unroll crescent rolls and press dough into one large rectangle. Cut rectangle into 24 squares. Press dough squares into muffin cups and shape up around the edges.
Fill each muffin cup with some of the turkey mixture. Top each bite with some diced tomato, bacon and parmesan cheese.
Bake 13-15 minutes or until lightly browned

Oh, you are a woman after my own heart!! These look SO good! I've SEEN Bobby Flay in his "Throw-down" Food Network show with the two chefs who do this in the south, and I have ALWAYS wanted to make a Hot Brown. How lucky you had one at his restaurant! And your little bites look so delicious. Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
Steph - you are just so creative, especially with small bite items. We make and enjoy hot browns occasionally and this looks like a must tryReplyDelete
I love love love love KY Hot Browns so I know I'll enjoy these miniature ones.ReplyDelete
I've never tried hot browns, but these muffin-sized versions look incredible… love the photos!ReplyDelete
Those look good!ReplyDelete
Love the hot brownsReplyDelete
Do you cook the bacon first?ReplyDelete
Lisa - yes, cook the bacon first, but don't make it super crispy since it will continue to cook in the ovenReplyDelete
Am I supposed to use two squares of dough per muffin cup or just one? Mine seem to barely cover the bottom of the muffin cup.ReplyDelete
Mandy - I used one piece per mini-muffin cup. You can try rolling the dough with a rolling pin to make it fit.ReplyDelete
Not a fan of packaged crescent rolls--- any other suggestions?ReplyDelete
going to try these but have a question - do you add the tomato before baking and how long & at what temp to do bake?ReplyDeleteReplies
Patty - add the tomatoes before baking and bake them @ 350 for 13-15 minutes.Delete
Yum! These look delicious! Great for leftovers!ReplyDelete
This looks good! I will have to try it especially since I am from Louisville, Kentucky the home of the hot browns. Thanks for giving us creative ideas for snacks and meals.ReplyDelete
Love this idea, is it possible to make these the day before and heat the day of a party? I am trying to do some things in advance.ReplyDelete

This clip is a great example for team meetings and training when trying to demonstrate concepts such as Constructive Tension, Reframe and Disrupting Status Quo.
While this is an entertaining clip, I am not advocating that this is the style to emulate to be a Challenger. But this clip does provide [in exaggerated form], an example of getting someone to think differently and to be at unrest with their status quo, albeit in the safe, scripted environment of a TV studio.

Teddy Bear
During a hunt in 1902, President Theodore Roosevelt refused to kill a Black Bear. After political cartoons depicting the incident were published, toy-makers started creating "Teddy Bears."

I have no doubt that this is entirely whats led to the downfall of our relationship. SIL gets what SIL wants and because we were so close, she didnt want us to continue that relationship ... I probably posed a threat somehow ...
Looking into the future with my own sons, I do hope that my future daughter in laws will be mature and empathetic and not spoiled ... there are no guarantees but I will aim to ensure that we can be supportive and caring towards each other :) .

Dori Monson: College textbook industry is criminalon January 27, 2014 @ 2:38 pm (Updated: 6:37 pm - 1/27/14 )
KIRO Radio's Dori Monson, a father of three girls currently in college, says they have good reason to.
"I'll go to the University Bookstore with my daughter and see these books for $130, $150," says Monson. "One prof recommends his buddy's book as required reading and his buddy recommends his book as required reading, and it's a criminal racketeering operation, the college textbook industry."
A recent study reveals 65 percent of students opt out of buying textbooks because of the high cost.
The study finds students choose to forgo buying certain textbooks even if it means getting lower grades.
According to the research foundation WashPIRG, 82 percent of students believe they would do significantly better in a course if the textbook were free and online.
"It's the open textbooks that we're really trying to shoot for," UW freshman Charles Waldorff tells KIRO Radio.
Waldorff says open textbooks on average, save students $100 per course.
Monson says he doesn't understand how college textbook companies have gotten away with their high prices for so long.
"This one industry is allowed to just steal from millions of families every single year," says Monson. "Everybody in that industry should be put in prison."
