Just received my car. It only had 23 miles of range when they unloaded it. Now it won't charge. Service is unavailable Until Monday. A very disappointing first day.
Oh no, that is disappointing. I'm so sorry! I hope they fix it fast for you.
It should charge even with 0 miles. Check these:
1. Try reinserting the UMC or HPWC. You should hear two clicks.
2. There should be green lights on the UMC or HPWC.
3. Try a charge from a 120V plug.
4. Try a J1772 charge (blink, charge point, etc.). If this works, then the problem is with the UMC or HPWC.
My wife and I are proud new owners of a Model S as of 4/6. We actually got to pick up the car at the new Houston service center. They did an outstanding job, had the car fully charged and freshly detailed. Whitney spent almost an hour with us doing an in-depth walk-through.
Everything is so new and we have so many questions. Hope to meet you all soon at a future meetup.
Rich said the service center is 90% ready, will likely open in another week or so.
9 works on Saturday. I have to leave by 9:30 to be at Renwick.
Just received our car on 4/2. Looking forward to meet the other owners in Houston as well, however Cars and Coffee is a bit early for me. Any other Sugar Land owners here?
Car is back from service. The car software was setup as an 85, but is a 65. Service reprogrammed one setting and everything works. BTW there's a new P85 at the service center going through pre-delivery.
@jerry3, thanks for the advice. As I mentioned in my last post, the problem was a programming issue. I have a 60, but the factory programmed the software as an 85. Everything is working great now.
So glad you took the plunge! I'm the one who gave you the ride in Houston. Still loving mine........
That's great.
Lynn, I haven't forgotten! Thank you so much! I LOVE IT!!
Sprais, 9 it is.

Considering my first Houston-Austin road trip next week. Sure wish there was a supercharger!
Has anyone taken this trip (recently) and have any advice?
With the supercharger, would be possible to make the round trip in one day - but without it, appears that an overnight stay will be needed.
The only hotel I've found (so far) in Austin that has a charging station is the Wyndham Garden in south Austin.
Has anyone else found an alternative hotel with a charging station?
BP, the Westin and the Aloft at the Domain shopping center are both walking distance from the HPWC Tesla chargers in the garage (Tesla store is there). Aloft is definite the most convenient...right across the (mall) street.
@bp: I have driven Houston -> Austin three times recently including last Monday/Tuesday. As you say, a SuperCharger will make this easy, but it isn't too bad now. First, I range charge 'just in case'. Also, I live in West Houston and take I-10 to 71 (and sometimes do the 77 jog up to 290). I arrive at my brother's house with about 71 miles of charge and did the overnight charge at The Domain. They have a Model S HPWC as does the Austin Service Center. Note: The charger at the Service Center lets you pull 80 amps but the Domain one currently only does 72 amps. The Domain chargers are available 24/7 but the service center officially closes at 6pm and is inside so you can't charge overnight.
If you don't want to do overnight, you will need to plan a very long lunch and a very long dinner at The Domain to get in 4 or 5 hours of charge before you return. Fortunately, there are some good restaurants out there. Good luck, let us know how it goes.
I broke a tire on an itty bitty pothole and the new one hasn't arrived yet. Hopefully tomorrow. Please give me a call at 832-338-5396.
@bp: Riceguy's advice is probably the best. If a long dinner/shopping at the Domain fits your plans, the HPWC there can fill you up.
My office is in Austin, just off Highway 71 east of I-35. I have a NEMA 14-50 outlet there, and with a bit of advance warning by e-mail I would be happy to help out a fellow Tesla owner if it's during business hours or I happen to be working late. Put "Tesla" in the mail title to reduce spamfiltering, and give a phone number so I can reach you back. Warning: Aside from a couple of decent-but-not-fancy restaurants, there is *nothing* of interest within walking distance of the office. Bring a book.
We were at the service center today and saw 3 other model S there, including WATT FUN - it was nice! Hopefully ours will get fixed soon. It took a loooong time for the parts to arrive and we just now got called in for repairs.
I can't beleive someone has the license plate WATTFUN.... my license plate is WATTFAn (I am in the Energy business and I am a huge Texans Fan). Great minds think alike!
@RandyL- If I am not mistaken, WATT FUN is actually stephen.pace's car. He mentioned his signature red before. It is beautiful too! I just thought it was so cool to finally sort of meet someone from the forum, even if it's just a car. Would be great to meet the owner as well :)
@stephen.pace- I hope your MS is ok and there is nothing serious with it
I think we are having a faulty charge port- this morning DH couldn't unplug the cord and it took him a few tries. Richard at service center said that it might a charge port :(
By the way, I told Richard that he is very popular on this forum. He was pleased and said he hopes it's a good thing
@ElenaK: Yes, I've had a few minor items that I've been needing to have fixed for a while and am on a business trip this week so it was a good time to give up the car.
Air Alliance Houston has asked if three owners would like to show their cars at an Earth Day event on April 25th (6pm - 8:30pm) near Washington Ave / Memorial Park. If you have availability and would like to participate, please email me (stephen_pace at hotmail.com) and I will send you the details. Thanks!
Made the trip to Austin this week.
On the trip out, did a range charge and drove conservatively to Austin. Had around 90 miles of range left when I reached the hotel.
Did a standard charge overnight and drove "normal" on the way back - and ended up with around 35 miles of charge left when I reach home.
At least on this trip - it looks like driving conservatively extended the range by about 20%.
Now that I've completed the first round trip that was longer than a single charge - I'll have more confidence in future road trips!
The only concern is that you can't reserve a charging station at the hotel - and the last two times I've stayed there, a Volt has been charging there during the day - and if someone brings another EV and stays overnight - the single J1772 charger might be busy - and then I might have to go to plan B - and sit at the Tesla Store or Service Center for several hours to recharge before heading back.
I did the same trip from Dallas to Austin last weekend. Did a range charge each way and had about 50 miles left when I got to the destination. I drove at or the near the speed limit (65-75) with no problem, other than a couple times when the map went blank.
I was surprised that the Four Seasons appeared to be the only hotel in Austin (or at least in the downtown/UT area) with a charger, and it had just one. Apparently, I was one of the first Teslas to have used it. It is mostly used during the day by Volts/Leafs there for a conference. Also a relatively slow charge (9 miles/hour).
The Four Seasons people were very nice about it, and even moved some non-EV cars that had been valeted in front of the charger so I could plug in.
Stayed at the Wyndham Garden in south Austin near I35 & Ben White Blvd. They have one J1772 ChargePoint station.
What kind of station does the Four Seasons have?
The hotels at the Dominion appear to be close enough to use the charging stations at the Tesla Store and Service Center (though I haven't verified this personally).
Any other Austin-area hotels with J1772 charging?
bp, you can definitely use the Tesla store chargers with the Domain hotels...
The Four Seasons had a J1772 station in the self-park area, just below the entrance. The valet guy has to unlock it for you.
The Air Alliance Houston Earth Day event went well. Small venue, but they had good turnout and there was quite a bit of interest in the cars both from the kids and their parents. And potentially two future orders. :-)

Thanks to Edward, Pat, and Collin for bringing out their awesome machines!
Did anyone have weird quirks with the tesla in the rain? If I have one worry about the car it's what happens when we have a day like today where it rains and rains and rains. I got stranded out in the rain today unexpectedly during a flash flood, and I wonder how an electric car would have fared. I was out there pulled over on the side of the road for about an hour and a half.
I forgot to mention that I was not in the tesla. I was in my moms truck, thankfully.
There really should be no difference because the bottom is sealed. Don't go fording any streams or places where water is higher than a 6" curb, just like you wouldn't in any car, and you should be okay. If in doubt, set the suspension to very high and drive very slowly. Some of the really early production was really sensitive to water but Tesla has fixed that in the later builds. I've had no problems on my ~5000 VIN.

"Save the best for last, Sometimes the very thing you're looking for, Is the one thing you can't see." Vanessa Williams
"Save your love, my love save it just for me
Save it up, every drop till you're here with me
Save it all, don't you fall for somebody new
'Cause I'm saving my love for you." Tracie Spencer
"Save a boyfriend for a rainy day. And another, in case it doesn't rain." Mae West
In many popular songs, lovers ask their beloveds to save their love for them. However, there are many cases in which the more you use, the more you have. Is love one such experience?
Two models of saving
When people speak about saving something, two major models prevail: the container model and the capacity model. In the container model, at any given time there is a limited amount of the saved object (e.g., energy, food, or money) and the best way to save it is to freeze it in its original situation. The container basically does not change the situation of the save object, as its major task is to keep it for future purposes. Once you take the object out of the container, it is likely to reduce in quality or in quantity.

More in Outdoors
Trees add height and color to a garden and look stunning planted in a beautifully mown lawn and underplanted with bulbs. Choose trees that provide more than one period of interest in the year, such as blossoms in spring, berries in late summer, foliage with fall color, and attractive bark for winter.
tree sapling
watering can or gardening hose
large gardening shovel
bamboo cane
well-rotted manure or garden compost
wooden Stake
Ttee tie
Give the tree a good watering prior to planting. Those in containers are available to buy all year round, but some trees can be bought bare root and should be planted during fall and winter.
Dig a hole at least twice the circumference of the tree's container. Be careful not to dig deeper than the depth of the root ball. Don't loosen the soil in the bottom of the hole however, because this could cause the tree to sink after planting.
Use a bamboo cane to ensure that the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding ground. Adjust the depth accordingly; if the hole is too deep, replace some of the soil.

I've been tempted to ignore people, but it seems a bit ignorant (probably a better word for it). Even if people are trolling, they generally contain some valid points. It's just a shame they tend to ruin those valid points by stating them as fact outright then insulting anyone who holds a differing opinion.

I don't think I've got anyone who posts currently on ignore. My list is full of old spammers and trolls who basically broke the site, though the more recent user allowances stopped a lot of that, and 24/7ish modding has reduced the ability of anyone to do that any more.

Book News: Navajo Nation Names Its First Poet Laureate
By editor
The daily lowdown on books, publishing, and the occasional author behaving badly.
- Luci Tapahonso has been named the Navajo Nation's first poet laureate. Elmer Guy, president of Navajo Technical College in New Mexico, announced the news and said Tapahonso will be officially introduced to the public May 17. Reached by phone, Guy told NPR that it is a "very important step for Navajo Nation" and that it is "time that we recognize our people for what we've contributed." Tapahonso's poetry often blends English with Diné, the Navajo language. She spoke about her reading habits with NPR's Rebecca Roberts on Weekend Edition in 2007.
- You can now send your poetry to Mars. NPR's Korva Coleman reports that NASA is asking for people to submit haikus to send into space with the MAVEN spacecraft. The deadline is July 1.
- Ian Buruma considers David Bowie in an essay for The New York Review of Books: "The image cultivated by Bowie, as he became more famous, was as a complete oddity, an isolated alien, a pop deity, utterly enigmatic, freakish, alienated, but dangerously alluring."
- MediaBistro's GalleyCat blog says literary magazine Granta is shutting down its New York office and that deputy editor Ellah Allfrey and art director Michael Salu has resigned and associate editor Patrick Ryan is also leaving. The report follows last week's announcement that Editor in Chief John Freeman is stepping down. It isn't clear what led to the departures, and Granta has not responded to requests for comment.
- Jonathan Lee interviews All That Is author James Salter for Guernica magazine: "It seems to me that literature is giving way a little bit to the immediacy of other diversions, other forms of entertainment. What will it be in fifty years? I don't know. Will there be printed books? Probably, but I'm not sure. There's always going to be literature, though. I believe that. I think literature has a way of getting deep into people and being essential. Literature has its own powers."

In an earlier post dated January 01, 2012, by Ms. Vinita Radhakrishnan (post may be found here) an important question was raised as to why are the IP rights in the landmark song, "Kolaveri Di" not being enforced by Dhanush and his team?
The answer lies in a recent interview of the famous singer to a daily, where he informed that he sold the rights of the song to Sony Music for nothing but an extremely small amount, quoted as pittance and trifling by many leading news agencies and which has also upset the family of the famed singer. According to Dhanush, "I can't release any version of Kolaveri without Sony's approval. And I'll have to share every version of the song with them. So essentially I'll get paid only for my singing. Like the Tamil version, the Hindi version of Kolaveri is with Sony Music. There's nothing I can do about it."
Dhanush also told the daily that he never imagined that the song will become such a rage and would go so viral on internet making him an international celebrity of sorts. Hence, the deal with Sony Music was made with such a smaller amount. He, at the time of making the deal felt that his singing was ordinary and suffered from many flaws. However, he does not regret selling the rights for a meagre amount as the fame and accolades from fans and industry insiders like Amitabh Bachchan and A.R. Rehman quoting him Amir Khan of Tamil cinema and comparing his song with an equally hummable oldie, "Ati Kya Khandala" has given him more content than anything.
In light of the aforesaid, the fact that Dhanush may neither enforce IP rights over nor make any money out of his song shows how neglecting original piece of work may cause drastic consequences to the worthy holder of the rights.
As for Sony Music, it is extremely intriguing to know why the said company is not taking any enforcement action against the many imitations of the song floating on internet around the world? The overwhelming popularity of the song, which has crossed the Indian boundaries and has in fact been proclaimed as the "song of the year, 2011″ by CNN International leads to this question. Why a big Music company is restraining itself from taking any action against such blatant copying? To give an insight, just during the period between 1 and 10 November, there were 43,800 mentions of Kolaveri in the US, 7,000 in France and 4,000 from the UAE, not to mention that Japan and Auckland is dancing to its tunes in its night clubs and flash mobs.
In spite of such viral nature of the song, Sony Music is silent over the increasing copying of the song. The reason why Sony Music is not taking any action seems more in terms of the monetary benefits, it is able to reap through the exploitation of the song over the cyberspace and social media, a first of its kind for an Indian song. After the song was initially leaked on You Tube, Sony was quick to become the content partner with You Tube. It capitalized on leaking of the song by way of posting the song in Tamil, Hindi and international facebook pages to drive the traffic, followed by a strategy to get as many twitter mentions of the song as possible. These efforts are said to have set cash registers ringing for the music company. Nearly 80% of the traffic to the song on You Tube was brought through facebook, whereas, increased twitter mentions of the song by nearly 200% everyday, starting at 179 and going till 14,907 tweets on December,24th raked more money for the said company, which is claimed to have been taking 50% of the revenue generated by the video from You Tube.
The aforesaid strategy and trend followed by Sony Music to monetize the benefits out of the song has definitely made the music company fill its pockets without any bounds even if this was at a cost of IP rights over the song. The marketing strategy has also set an example and a starting point for other music companies and filmmakers to follow in future. Though, as stated by Jehil Thakkar, executive director, KPMG India, "No one can really say what works, so replicating it (success of Kolaveri) is next to impossible."

The Best Haircuts to Look Younger
Trim almost 10 years off with these chic styles
By GoodHousekeeping.com
Your Perfect Cut Starts Here
How to Choose the Style That's Right for You:
Your goal: To firm up the jawline
Try: At least nape-length layers that are shorter in back. Adding some swing this way helps minimize flaws in general, and longer pieces in front will give the illusion of angles where they're needed.
Your goal: To emphasize good features
Try: Cutting layers that "point" toward the area by ending at the same level. If you have a great smile, for example, ask for chin-length pieces in front that will hit at lip level.
Your goal: To hide forehead wrinkles
Try: Eyebrow-skimming bangs (think Goldie Hawn). They'll cover lines and play up your eyes.
Your goal: To sculpt cheekbones
Try: Creating volume at the crown. Ask for layers on top. Then, when styling, take a few strokes with a teasing comb (easy we're not talking Marge Simpson) five inches from the hairline.
Your goal: To downplay neck wrinkles
Try: A few wispy, longer strands in the back, even if the cut is short.
Your goal: To brighten a dull complexion
Try: Highlights concentrated around the face "to add dimension and give your skin glow," says Ronald Braso of New York's Frédéric Fekkai Salon.

Woman Sentenced to Year in Prison for Having al-Qaeda MagazineSubmitted by legalizeliberty on Sun, 12/09/2012 - 14:50
Curious readers beware: in the British police state, merely possessing a copy of the supposed al-Qaeda magazine Inspire will get you a twelve month stint in the hoosegow.
Last Thursday, the sister of two men convicted of planning a Christmas 2010 terror plot – including blowing up a toilet at the London Stock Exchange – was jailed after British authorities found a digital copy of the magazine on the memory card of her cell phone.
Judge Adrian Fulford said he accepted Ruksana Begum's explanation that she downloaded the magazine to better understand her brothers' case. He said, however, he had no choice but to send her to prison, according to the Associated Press.
Begum "accessed this material, which is easily accessible, before coming to London to understand the background and ideology which led to her brothers' incarceration," said her lawyer, Hossein Zahir.
Begum's conviction and incarceration set a dangerous precedent – people can now be sent to prison for merely having literature on their computers and cell phones.

I'm happy being able to do changes on the fly
We were given a month to decide as well. I personally contacted our LA to try and get prices/update on the situation many times, as soon as I became aware there may be an increase and they refused to deal with me or provide any pricing information. The bursar tried as well to no result.
When we refused to renew, that was the first time they made contact, and they did so by contacting the head and resorting to silly scare tactics. I am fortunate enough to have a head that runs the school and is happy delegating, so they were just referred back to me.
If they were prepared to consider the needs of the schools rather than trying to force the schools to meet their needs, they would have better luck. As it is, it looks suspiciously like they are (and have been for a few years) engaging in empire building and creating unneccessary expense for schools to ensure their cushy jobs remain - after all, all maintenance, supply etc is contracted out to someone else, yet they seem to have a plethora of managers you have to beg for any changes.
I'm happy being able to do changes on the fly
The other thing which I don't spot being put on here about why costs are "rising" (and I use the quotes as I am someone who has spent a lot of time looking at Internet and working with our LA and other IT Managers in my county on new ISP systems and pushing for change) is that a lot of systems that LAs and RBCs have fitted were designed around having X number of sites at X speed for X years.
When you leave / pull out / school closes / become an Academy, that is a loss of a site, but a lot of the contracts don't allow much room for reducing that bill as they are fixed for a set time period, thus the LA is left with a large bill and less income, you could say that was a poor contract, however due to the vast nature of these groups and the teleco-geography of some areas within an RBC / LA coverage it was quite a smart move at the time when the money was plentiful as were the grants.
For everyone who pulls out that bill still needs to be paid by someone, that cost will, as the LAs are not getting the grants to keep / top slice (whatever you wish to call it) they can only do only a few things:
Terminate the contract thus cutting you all off in one go and saying go sort yourselves out and use any reserves to pay the termination fee
Split the bill by less sites thus you get an increase in the actual costs you pay (I'm talking about pre-fund reserve contributions here not the bills you saw but the hidden costs which GD mentioned were often not given out as people were not interested in the past)
Go back to the Internet / Network provider and re-negotiate the contracts to reduce costs / service / remove features of the contract etc...
Now I am sure some on here would say they should just kill it off job done, but think outside your own town or city, think about the small rural school with say 400 children, it may cost £20K to £30K a year to provide them with a good high speed internet connection. That school most likely cannot find £20K to £30K spare in the budget to pay for Internet Access that is high speed, supports Video Conferencing, publishing services to enable working any-place any-time by both staff and students. That school may, via the RBC / LA systems, only pay half of that for the same service, which yes is a lot of money, however its a lot better price wise than on your own. (This isn't about discussing the quality of RBCs here i'm using an assumption were getting a like for like Internet system without filtering and all the other stuff).
I know from my own meetings that the next few years is a risky time for LAs and RBCs as more and more schools look to become academy's and / or leave provision for cheaper better service, there are going to be the large bills to pay and yet no money coming in leading to "price rises" to those left on them who cannot afford alternatives / get alternatives due to geography or be bothered (which will be a large number of primary schools across the country as a large number don't have people like us working in them), these schools and children will suffer and we will end up with a digital divide once again and be back where we were pre-RBCs creation back in the last millennium.
So yes I understand you need to look for best value, I myself at my school am doing that as are others in my county and across the country, however you will also need to think how will your feeder schools cope if a large number of secondary schools leave, they will be the bulk of most LA / RBC contracts, if they leave to go elsewhere, the contract and services will become non-viable, thus could you imagine how your feeder schools could cope without quality Internet and support?

Speaking as I do from an RBC perspective, I can see and have experience from all sides really. If I give you an example, we have had a number of schools in our region wanting to come directly to us for their provision (which is perfectly fine, we would rather they stayed in the fold somewhat than have some profiteering company promise the world and deliver the Outer Hebrides). One of these is a primary school which is probably on the border between two LAs, i.e. as far as you can probably get from the nearest major city either way. They were very disgruntled with their LA provision and wanted to get away from them. When we provided them with connectivity costs, because it was a one off line (and as we are not-for-profit we put absolutely no margin on top of what we were quoted by the telcos) and not part of a bulk buy, it was more than double what they were paying to the LA because they were miles away from the city. If schools go it alone, there will be winners and losers dependent on circumstances of geography, which is fine if you have an "I'm alright jack" attitude which because of the squeeze on budgets will become all the more prevalent, but is that ALL you want to focus on? The bottom line? Is that ALL that is important or is it somehow important to think about the wider education community?
We have just come through another process of procuring a regional grid. We have increased the grid's speed tenfold (links are now gigabit into LAs when they were 100mbit) and made it more resilient offering two gigabit links into the grid uncontended (whereas before it was more like a ring) and all for pretty much the same price as before. We have had a couple fewer LAs taking connectivity than we did previously, but we have still managed it. The costs for our services is clearly displayed on our website (non-consortium pricing, so if you are part of the LA they are obviously cheaper still) and we try to be as transparent as we possibly can. The issue in my experience as has been mentioned in previous posts is that LAs have not traditionally broken down what the sum you pay to them actually pays for. Which bit is for connectivity, which bit is for filtering, which bit is for support etc. and it has also been difficult for them to say you can cherry pick which bits you want, for example I want filtering, but I don't want that VLE that you have procured for us. It has been an all or nothing approach and I can understand that from a bulk purchase point of view.
The loss of the Harnessing Technology grant has been a massive blow for a lot of authorities as have the cuts to other areas of finance that meant they were able to subsidise a lot of what they used to and are now left trying to divvy up a bill between fewer and fewer schools which eventually will become a house of cards. It will then become an everyone for themselves exercise and for some primary schools and even some secondary schools in the far reaches of Yorkshire, they will have to spend an awful lot of money trying to get decent connection speeds or dust off the old text books and encyclopaedias.

I can understand the issues perfectly. Smaller schools need more financial support to cover their costs. Personally, I've come to question whether running schools in the middle of nowhere is sustainable or economical. But that's another issue.
I'm afraid for schools we have to focus on what's good for our children who are here and now. We can't go around thinking about what we do affects other schools, because that isn't getting our pupils the best they can get at our school - which is the legal responsibility of the school to do so...
Only there is a finite pot of money, so say for example school A had to request budget increase of £20K to keep their broadband provision at a decent speed, schools B, C & D would have to swallow a £7K budget cut to accommodate that wouldn't they? So however you look at it, no one can (or perhaps should) live in isolation. We all chip into the pot as taxpayers, forget about who we work for or our vested interests. As a taxpayer, I expect the government to use my contribution in the most efficient way possible. It's the reason I buy tins of beans in a four pack when I go shopping, because it's cheaper than buying four individual tins. Maybe I'm an idealist. But of course I do understand your point about getting your pupils the best they can get at your school, I have children in school and I expect them to be given the best, but I don't want my daughter in her secondary school to be given the best at the expense of my son in his primary school. Aren't they the founding principles of the welfare state? Why should one child be better provisioned than any other just because of circumstance beyond their control? Doesn't every child matter? Crikey am I starting to become a bit political? I think I'd better stop now.
May I just clarify that these are my own views and not those of my organisation, the current or last government or anyone else. Maybe I am delusional. I know I need a holiday.
I have read the above comments with interest. I started at the school as Network Manager last September, previously working in commercial/business environment. The contract to continue with the LEA had already been signed so we are stuck with it for the term of the contract at least. I am astounded at the attitude of Babcock re the implementaton of this project. Where in any other environment would it be acceptable to give 48 hours notice of the actual changeover of a broadband provider where potentially the business would have half a day without internet? Apart from the issue of cost I have a real problem with a provider determining when a change over of this type takes place. Who is the customer? This is one of the many reasons we will certainly consider changing our broadband supplier when the contract comes to an end.
We opted out of switching with our LA to YHGFL (no slight on YHGFL, we just didnt want to stay with our LA), went with BT, havent regretted it for a second.
Bought in our own filtering, get a great BT connection, we run it all ourselves and we save a packet. A few other schools in the LA did the same and I know 2 of the 3 dont regret it, the other i've not spoken to to ask.
Part of the issue in our LA is that all the schools are connected to the LA's network and then to the RBC connection. Which to be honest has forced schools away, because whenever a port was requested to be opened the LA just blocked it.
I have since moved from the LA and set myself up as self employed and now provide ICT Support and Internet Connectivity to 20 primary schools.
What I dont like about the way our LA did things was the continual moving of the goalposts. We were all told at the start that everyone would pay a flat rate for the service and this was to allow connections to the more rural areas of the county. FGine we said we can understand that. Even when the HTG was lost we accepted a slightly higher price, for the sake of the county. Then the pricing structure changed. We no longer all paid a flat rate, the rate was changed to a cost per student and member of staff.
Now the situation is that I pay more for a 10Mbps service than another school pays for a 100Mbps service!! Why are we being penalised because we are a bigger school, at the end of the day we are using the same sized pipe irrespective of how many students we have. I'm afraid the argument that as a "bigger school, you get more money per student" doesnt wash either, because as school in a moderate income area, we get very few grants or assistance that other schools in more deprived areas get.
But price wasnt the only factor in our decision to move. The poor service didnt help either.
Rant over....
The only reason I ask is because if you are connected via the LA's network then the reason they charge more the bigger school you are is because they argue that the more kids you have then the more traffice you will create across the LA's network, so therefore they pretend that they need to invest in more infrastructure... Which is total rubbish, but they think they can charge what they want, and its only a matter of time before every school has an independent internet connection....
The idea of charging based on numbers of people using the services is not such a rubbish thing. I know it varies from LA to LA, RBC to RBC but if you consider that they have to provide systems (including licences, hardware, support staff, etc) based on the amount it is going to be used (eg web filtering) then the more users the more money it needs to run. Connectivity will vary, and that should be based on bandwidth rather than users ... but to work this sort of thing out you can have a complex and messy formula and you *know* that no matter how it is set out it will end up smoothing costs for some schools. And those school who run lots of their own services get annoyed that they are 'subsidising' other schools, and those who are near to exchanges are annoyed they are subsidising those in more rural areas.
If the specific funding comes in to a big pot and is then doled out to schools based on a formula (eg number of pupils) then you could argue that getting the money back should be based on the same thing. The fact that school might use other pots to cover the cost means that it is not black & white.
The HT grant being removed has meant that in some LAs all the costs have to be met directly by the school ... but it was being met by schools' money anyway ... it was just that some of it was centrally retained.
As for every school having their own connection ... not likely to happen. Yes, there will be quite a number that go for it, and a number who will be encouraged by those that provide their tech support (as it can be a money spinner) but there are many who are looking not just for cheapest option or to make the political move away from the LA ... but they are looking for the best and most appropriate service.
Many of us in LAs or who work with large groups of schools are still waiting for what will come out of the Dept in the next year about this. Public Sector Networks will be a core part of how schools can get connectivity and services, it will be fed into by a lot of areas from Health and Police, through to local community requirements. UKCCIS need to sort out their working group looking at internet safety in education and get the replacement of the Becta Accredited Filtering Provider status ready for next year (it still exists this year so any supplier that tells you it doesn't so you can use their service is talking porkies!)
Free Schools are starting to push for advice on this too ... the former Becta documentation for the Technical and Functional Specifications for IT Infrastructure have been dusted down, had most of the branding removed and stuck up on the DoE site for people to use and make reference too. Talking with one company looking at introducing a free school in a nearby LA, the IT director is worried that there is just enough rope to hang themselves on and if it wasn't for the fact that they are already an Academy group they don't think they would have enough information to set up the IT for a school. As a group they don't use RBCs for connectivity usually ... but they might do for this one just to cover themselves.
I could do with some advice on this matter. Both my schools are SWGfL and we have had details of the pricing for broadband and the other services. They seem OK to me and neither school has the money for a filtering solution such as Smoothwall, as well as only having a part-time tech which makes the whole thing more problematic.
I don't have any experience of this sort of thing so have just left it for another year. But there is going to have to be a moment when I do have to consider it.
Anyone out there in a Primary or Middle school who can help me?

Leicester, Unite...
as soon as I saw By Hand London's new Flora pattern, I fell in love with it and knew I had to make it. I bought the green fabric from my local fabric shop and when I got home, I lay the lace I bought from Fabric Godmother. I thought it was a match made in heaven but my mum wasn't so sure!… I have to say she did begrudgingly eat her words!! I love this pattern!! The dipped hem is fantastic and the dress was surprisingly easy to make! I just hope I win their competition now for a new serger… I am in desperate need of one!!

Exposure to trauma in childhood can last a lifetime, but it does not need to. Well-conceived interventions can promote individual and community resilience and healing.
Violence and trauma inflict profoundly negative effects on people's health and well-being. If we are going to achieve a Culture of Health throughout America, we must devote more of our attention to changing behavioral norms and community conditions to help stop the spread of violence before it starts.

Farmers are demanding adequate compensation for crop loss.
At the monthly grievance day meeting held here on Friday, M. Shanmugasundaram of Veerasigamani near Sankarankovil, a farmer, said farmers in Sivagiri, Royagiri and other places around Sankarankovil had suffered a heavy loss during the past two seasons.
R. Kasamuthu, a farmer and Communist Party of India functionary, said the farmers, who had suffered loss during 'kar' and 'pisanam' seasons, who had cultivated rain-fed crop in the district, should be given sufficient compensation.
S. Perumbadaiyar, a farmer and CPI functionary, said that the adulterated fertilizer sold in southern parts of Tirunelveli had caused irreparable loss to farmers. The monsoon too had played havoc.
Joint Director of Agriculture K. Soundararajan said that samples would be sent for analysis. "If it is found to be spurious, stern action will be taken against the dealer who supplied the fertilizer," he said.
Collector C. Samayamoorthy, who chaired the meeting, assured the farmers that he would convey their sentiments to the government. He announced that farmers' grievance day meetings would be held hereafter at three revenue divisions of the district prior to the monthly meeting being organised at the Collectorate on the third Friday of every month.
"While the smaller issues being raised by the farmers can be redressed at the divisional level, major issues can be discussed at the meeting being organised in the presence of the Collector," Mr. Samayamoorthy said.
As per the statistics provided by the officials, dry spell may continue as the district, which used to get a rainfall of 50.20 mm during January on an average, had got only 2.07 mm this year. Reservoirs collectively have 23 per cent water (3,172 million cubic feet against the cumulative storage level of 13,765.50 mcft).
Of the 2,449 irrigation tanks in the district, 905 systemized tanks and 1,513 rain-fed tanks are bone-dry.
The district is heading towards the worst-ever summer, according to the statistics reveals.
Keywords: farmers protest, crop loss, spurious fertilizers, monthly grievance day, Tirunelveli farmers

I love my 2005 400EX, but I need something a little more useful for work tasks and 4x4 for some of the trails I tackle. I'm located in central KY-40330.
I'm the second owner (previous was also an adult owner). I bought it 3 years ago, and it's never needed anything other than regular maintenance items.
23" front ITP TracStars radials (6ply) & 22" Kenda Knarly radials (6ply) installed in 2008-good condition. Stock engine, stock air box, nerf bars, new front & rear sprockets & x-chain installed in 2008 with larger tires to maintain factory gear ratio, Houser anti-vibration steering stem, Renthal bars, PowerMadd hand guards, ASV clutch lever, aluminum belly skid, aluminum swingarm skid, and rear hitch. I just installed a PRM Desert 2 bumper, UNI filter, HMF Competition pipe, & rejetted. The red plastic and seat has normal scratches from trail riding, but no significant damage. I've always used Honda oil & filters and it's been changed regularly. I'm asking $3500.

3.4 on May 31, 2012
The rooms were old and smelled funny but once we got used to the smell, it was ok. The room was nice & roomy but the beds were pretty hard. I was impressed with the service. And breakfast in the morning came right on time, and the service was excellent.
1.8 on February 03, 2012
wanted a cheap alternative for an ocean-view stay in that area; took advantage of bedandbreakfast.com's $50 discount which still made it pricey for what you got
3.4 on August 07, 2011
The staff was extremely friendly, room was very large and roomy. It did have a musty smell, but with the air/fans going it was fine. We stayed there and drove into SF. The pricing was better then in SF. Enjoyed the ocean view, The little cafe next door, WONDERFUL!!

In 2009, Venezuela and Bolivia cut diplomatic ties with Israel, expressing disgust at the country's actions during "Operation Cast Lead" - a three-week conflict that included an Israeli ground invasion of the Gaza Strip and caused heavy civilian casualties.
The following year, after Israel's raid on the Mavi Marmara flotilla that killed 10 people, Nicaragua announced it would suspend ties with Israel.
Since the beginning of Israel's current offensive on the Gaza Strip against Hamas, five Latin American countries - Ecuador, Brazil, Peru, Chile and El Salvador - have withdrawn their ambassadors to Israel in protest. Meanwhile, Bolivia has dubbed Israel a "terrorist state" and rescinded its visa-free policy for Israeli travellers, and Chile has also suspended free-trade negotiations with Israel.
The recalling of diplomats comes just two months after the Israeli government announced plans to bolster its economic ties with a handful of Latin American countries.
Israel has described the countries' decisions to withdraw their diplomats as "encouragement for Hamas", adding that "El Salvador, Chile and Peru would have been much better advised to promote the international move intended to assist Israel in its efforts to defend innocent civilians and instate a durable cease-fire with the demilitarisation of Gaza".
As for Brazil, Israeli foreign ministry spokesperson Yigal Palmor dismissed the country as a "diplomatic dwarf". Responding to Brazilian accusations that Israel's use of force in Gaza has been disproportionate, Palmor riffed on Brazil's lopsided World Cup defeat: "This is not football. In football, when a game ends in a draw, you think it is proportional, but when it finishes 7-1 it's disproportionate. Sorry to say, but not so in real life and under international law."
The biggest Palestinian diaspora outside the Arab world is in Latin America: An estimated 500,000 Chileans are of Palestinian descent, and as many as 200,000 Hondurans.
In 1973, Cuba became the first Latin American country to cut diplomatic ties with Israel, citing support for the Palestinian cause.
Click through the slides below to see when and why selected Latin American countries cut or downgraded ties with Israel.

Buffett's Weak Defense
Updated from 7:11 a.m. EST
This can't be Warren Buffett's best defense.
Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA), of which Buffett is CEO, is being targeted by regulators because its insurance subsidiaries have been involved in deals that look like they were designed to give an artificial boost to the financial statements of other companies.
Tuesday, Berkshire released a statement disputing details of recent press coverage of the deals. The Berkshire release also commented on a reinsurance deal that General Re, one of its subsidiaries, did with American International Group (AIG) in 2000. The reinsurance transaction is currently being investigated by New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer and the Securities and Exchange Commission.The plot thickened Wednesday when AIG conceded the deal shouldn't have been treated as an insurance transaction.

With summer just around the corner, a cadre of posters have been revealed for a few upcoming blockbusters. Expect to see variations of these marketing materials slapped on every conceivable surface between now and their release.Read More »
As the case has been made abundantly clear, "The Great Gatsby" is going for broke in the big screen, 3D adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel. Of the biggest sticking points for those still on the fence about the movie is Baz Luhrmann's choice to go with contemporary music (with a soundt...Read More »
Giving your summer movie viewing a requisite dose of literary authority, Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" is coming with an equal mix of high expectations, quiet rumbling about a troubled production, star power, a Cannes Film Festival opening slot, 3D, Jay-Z and whatever else you can add on the pil...Read More »
Well, you gotta admit, Baz Luhrmann has a pretty big pair of brass ones when it comes to "The Great Gatsby." With a soundtrack dressing up the classic American novel with songs by will.i.am, Fergie, Lana Del Rey, Jay-Z and The xx, he's certainly taking F. Scott Fitzgerald's book out of the classroo...Read More »
So, now you've seen the razzle dazzle new trailer for "The Great Gatsby," and your ears may have noticed a smattering of music from Beyonce, Andre 3000, Lana Del Rey and Florence And The Machine. Well, that's because they're on the soundtrack, and the full details are here.Read More »
It was only a couple of weeks ago that Jay-Z's role in the music of Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" was clarified.

Warner Bros. has released six new "The Great Gatsby" character posters.

As you can see below, each ...Read More »
More of the glitz and drama of Baz Luhrmann's much-anticipated "The Great Gatsby" has spilled across a small screen near you in two new TV spots. The 3D film, which opens the 66th Festival du Cannes on May 15 -- twelve years after Luhrmann's last period spectacular "Moulin Rouge" kicked off the fest...Read More »
If your audience needs to read up beforehand, your movie may be a little over-ambitious. F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby," however, which stands at sub-200 pages and with a tally of no more than seven principal characters, doesn't present itself as an obvious adaptive head-scratcher. So a n...Read More »
When rapper/entrepreneur Jay-Z was reported to be "scoring" Baz Luhrmann's "The Great Gatsby" the first thing we were asked was, why didn't we report this? Well, for one, we're sticklers for language. You wouldn't say Diablo Cody wrote "Evil Dead" if she just did a dialogue pass on it, right? Well, ...Read More »
