What Our Customers Are Saying about Our Filled Raspberry Candy (30 oz. Bag) …
"Oh, how I loved these as a child. My grandmother would keep them in a glass candy dish. I had to lift the lid very quietly or she would hear the glass "jingle" and know I was in the candy dish again! I used to suck on these until I hit the soft center....sometimes I could not wait and would just bite them!! YUMMY!" - Janet, Manahawkin, NJ
"These candies were always at my grandmother's home during Christmas and now they are a favorite with my children and grandchildren at my house. I even give a bag to one of my sons who is addicted to them. Thanks for helping keep old memories alive! Jane Denbow" - Jane Denbow, Baltimore, AL
"I'm now 80 years old. As a young boy in the Philippines, my mother used to take me to a candy store where they sold the sweet raspberry candies with fillings. I so loved them. I never saw them again until you sent my wife a catalogue for Christmas. A dream I nurtured all these years finally came true!" - R. Nito Santiago, ahway, NJ

In Normally Stable Sengal, Police, Protesters Face Off
Police fired tear gas into crowds of demonstrators in Senegal's capital on Friday. NPR's Ofeibea Quist-Arcton was on what is usually a busy street in Dakar and she told our Newscast unit that all day there has been a cat-and-mouse game between police and young protesters.
Protesters are throwing rocks and pieces of concrete and police have responded with tear gas.
The AP reports that the protests come a little more than a week before presidential elections and the demonstrations have been raging for weeks. Protesters are demanding the departure of 85-year-old President Abdoulaye Wade, who is using a constitutional amendment passed in 2001 under his watch, to run for third term.
The AP adds:
"On Avenue William Ponty, police used grenade launchers to throw volleys of tear gas down the wide boulevard. Small groups of youths tried to defy them, with a dozen or so braving the police cordon.
"They held their arms up in an X, a symbol used by the opposition to denote the bound hands of the people in this normally placid nation of 12 million. "Liberate the people," they screamed, before being chased back by the police.
"Senegal is just a week away from a much-anticipated presidential election, the first in five years. Electoral law allows candidates to hold rallies in the pre-election period, but the interior minister issued a statement this week saying that he had refused to authorize the protests because of the threat to public order. He described the various demonstrations that have disrupted daily life in Senegal for the past two weeks as 'a crime spree by vagabonds.'"
Ofeibea reports that since its 1960, Senegal has been "a bastion of civility and democracy," so these demonstrations and government crackdown are unusual. The AP reports that two people have been killed because of the demonstrations.

The best looping GIF of Online Commentaries & Diversions:
• Review: Publishers Weekly gives a Starred Review to Messages in a Bottle by B. Krigstein. "Krigstein's stories are sometimes epic and sprawling, sometimes compressed and confined…His mastery of chiaroscuro, and his dramatic composition and layout, applied across a very wide range of subject matter, are what make this gorgeous collection so essential."
• Review: The AV Club also shows extreme love for the comics of B. Krigstein in his new collection Messages in a Bottle. Noel Murray writes, "Krigstein treated each assignment as a chance to put theory into practice, and even among EC's formidable roster of stylists, Krigstein stands out as one for whom the words around the pictures almost don't matter, because the art's so mesmerizing that it's hard to pay attention to anything else…"

imposta !A news puBCication of the Saíish and 'Kootenai Tribes of the Jíathead Indian Reservation Chief Charlo of the Salish VOLUME 17, NUMBER 10 MONTH OF CELEBRATION DANCES Chief Koostatah of the Kootenai Kootenay Nation protests border through territory, Customs policy Over 100 Kootenay Indians staged a peaceful protest July 12 when they partially dismantled a wooden fence marking the U.S.-Canadian border as it slices their nation in two. As one section of the fence came down, chairs and drums were set up for an evening of speeches in Indian by elders, and dancing and drumming, while Canadian immigration officials looked on from a short distance away. 10 « is o o o ! The protest illustrated to U.S. and Canadian officials, who had been notified in advance, that the people of the seven Kootenay bands affected (five north of the border and two from "down south") don't recognize the border, which some refer to as the 49th parallel. Further, they resent being treated like immigrants in their own territory by Customs officials whenever the northerners want to visit their southern cousins and vice versa. Also disputed is the midnight border-closing curfew. Canadian Customs' treatment of border-crossing Indians was observed earlier that day when a 15 -car caravan from Elmo was held up while seven rigs were throroughly searched for anything illegal. Such treatment was supposed to be a thing of the past, Kootenay Indian Area Council staff members said, thanks to an agreement struck just nine days earlier. The KIAC had agreed to close the "Indian crossing", which is less than a mile west of Customs, in exchange for fewer or no inspections in the future and longer hours at the official crossing. While the KIAC followed through with its part of the arrangement, Canadian officials didn't, Council members said, as evidenced by the July 12 inspection of the cars from the Flathead. Such treatment wasn't even supposed to happen in the first place, the Koote-nays say, because the earliest treaties signed between them and the British government over 200 years ago guaranteed the former's freedom to travel in their accustomed territory without restrictions. Modem-day officials are ignoring those treaties, saying they're not bound by them today, the Kootenay Council charges. Some 18 band members have been (Continues on pages two and three) Hearing set for proposed bird-hunting regs The Tribal Council will hold a public hearing Aug. 1 on proposed regulations for the 1988-89 bird-hunting season on the Reservation. The hearing will begin at 7 p.m. and will take place in the Council's chambers at Tribal headquarters in Pablo. For more information, see the notice elsewhere in this issue or call 675-2700.

Obama thinks he has found how to negotiate with the Republicans. Putting forward centrist, "bi-partisan" proposals will deemed as leftist by the GOP anyway. Concessions are made and the proposal becomes more conservative in nature.
So, put forward a leftist proposal, give concessions and the proposal should end up roughly being centrist in the end.

Effect |
Causes the victim to double over with laughter |
- "Harry pointed his wand straight at Malfoy and shouted, 'Rictusempra!' A jet of silver light hit Malfoy in the stomach and he doubled up, wheezing....as Malfoy sank to his knees; Harry had hit him with a Tickling Charm, and he could barely move for laughing."
- —Harry Potter's use on Draco Malfoy in the Duelling Club.[src]
The Tickling Charm (Rictusempra) is a spell that causes a victim to buckle with laughter. This is usually used as a diversionary tactic in duels, such as when Harry Potter used it on Draco Malfoy in the Duelling Club of their second year. It is not known how this affects a person who is not ticklish, it may just knock back the opponent.
"Rictusempra" is derived from the Latin "rictus," meaning "The expanse of an open mouth" and Latin "semper," meaning "always."
Behind the scenes
- This is the first incantation Harry Potter has done verbally and with a wand in a film. He used it on his duel against Draco Malfoy in the second film.
- In the film version of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Malfoy is simply knocked backwards. The same occurs in the game version (also in Prisoner of Azkaban and Order of the Phoenix game versions), where it is treated as a minor offensive spell, rather than a tickle charm. The use of it in the film could be because as Harry was an inexperienced wizard at that point, he may not have been able to master the spell properly, thus causing a different effect. However, it could also be that Malfoy was not ticklish in the film. Also, in the film and video game(s), it is red or pink rather than silver.
- It can be bought at Wiseacre's Wizarding Equipment in Diagon Alley in LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4.
- Since this charm creates a sensation of being tickled and makes the victim collapse to the ground, this charm can be called a "minor torturing" curse.
- There is another similar spell, the Tickling Hex; it is unknown how they differ. It can presumed that the Tickling Hex would cause a less desirable effect.
- According to Pottermore, the hand motion is thus:
Nonetheless, in Wonderbook one must merely flick their wand at the target to cast the spell.

Gallery: Prefabricated Southend Pier Cultural Centre Sits At the End of...
Inspired by the wind and the waves of the surrounding environment, the centre's volume is sculpted to give the best possible shelter and view.
Southend Pier Cultural Centre opened in the summer of 2012 to provide gathering space for visitors to Southend-On-Sea. The project was designed by <a href="http://www.white.se/" target="_blank">White Arkitekter, who won a competition to create the multi-purpose space and they were aided by UK Sprunt to construct and install the building. Inspired by the wind and the waves of the surrounding environment, the centre's volume is sculpted to give the best possible shelter and view. The centre is a meeting place for tourists and residents with restaurant, café, cultural centre with studios, exhibitions, film shows, live performances and events. Visitors can walk the length of the pier or ride the train, which runs at regular intervals.
The building was fabricated offsite in modular parts then shipped to the end of the pier where it was craned into place. As the centre is located in the middle of the water, it was built to handle the rugged maritime environment with durable and weather resistant materials like timber, Cor-Ten steel and glass. The design also ensures very little need be done in terms of maintenance. With its location far from shore, every effort was made to make the building as self sufficient as possible. The centre features energy efficient systems and makes use of wind energy and a sea water-sourced heating system.

well here we see the use of tapered steps yet again cutting across the main circulation route – consider people leaving the centre at night when the steps are slippery and have to negotiate the ramp crossing their path! Many will prefer to use the ramp – elderly people not keen to use steps without a hand rail, parents with buggies and wheelchair users. Love the overall idea but the detail on the approach is disapointing. Any thoughts on this?

what TF are you using there?
It looks like L&B has been in the news lately:
Starting to be the go to simple pie around here. Cheapo teflon pans seem to work o.k. also.
I thought L&B used black standard half sheet pans?You can get the same 10x14 pans as at Bucket Outlet pre-seasoned here for about the same price: http://detroitstylepizza.co/?s=pans&searchsubmit=Search
cool source craig, I didn't know about this place. In my neck of the woods its all about a pizza style that is also pan cooked, and has that awesome charred cheese on the edge like a detroit style pizza. Most of the pre seasoned pans sold around here have a coating sprayed on them by the manufacturer. Its not like most teflon non stick coatings, and they call it "pre seasoned" not "non stick" which they also sell. Its a semi permanent coating that sort of freaks me out. Im not sure what it is, but its almost seems like a harder than typical neoprene coating. Its not ceramic. Whatever it is, I would obviously prefer a baked on coating of oil or shortening. Do you know how these pans are pre seasoned?

Effective Use of Mild Acting Herbs III. Da Zao (Jujube)
by Subhuti Dharmananda
Jujube is known in China as Zao; it has a history of use there that can be traced back continuously to the Han Dynasty, about 2,000 years ago. The usual English term for the fruit is "Chinese date" and that is because it shares a similar size, stone, and sweetness with the date that we know of from the Date Palm, but it is entirely unrelated botanically. The fruit is also known as a "jujube" and the botanical name reflects this: Zizyphus jujuba. The plant belongs to the Rhamnaceae, the Buckthorn Family, so-named because of the prevalence of thorny species (rhamnos is the Latin for a thorny bush).

'Fluid' the floating expo center - coming to a port near you?
The conceptual "Fluid - Amphibian Pavilion", a futuristic transportable building that can be sailed away to a new destination once an exhibition has finished
Article Summary
A futuristic adaptable living building called "Fluid – Amphibian Pavilion" has been proposed by architects Peddle Thorp as an exhibition center for the World Expo 2012 to be held in Yeosu, Korea. Apart from its unique design, the building has a low impact on the environment because, when the Expo finishes, this floating exhibition space can be "unhooked" and sailed away to its next location.

Pea coats are a style of double breasted overcoat which have recently become associated with scenesters. Wearing one may garner scene cred. Traditionally navy blue.
At a concert I attended recently, pea coats and tight jean were the preferred attire.

The ultimate piece of white-person fashion. Though known as a woman's jacket by many, it was actually worn by sailors for many years.

A trend that is very annoying for the winter of 2009-2010 (and probably will continue for a while). Everywhere you turned to, you will see people wearing these coats. Douchebags are beginning to wear them. When fat people wear them, they look stupid with fail on top of it. Also, there are some cheap pea coats that can be purchased at Old Navy; however, these coats make you look like you're wearing a cheap Halloween costume of fail. Pea Coat, as defined by wikipedia, is an outer coat, generally of a navy-colored heavy wool, originally worn by sailors of European navies. Pea coats are characterized by broad lapels, double-breasted fronts, often large wooden or metal buttons, and vertical or slash pockets.
Back in the 2007, I love my pea coat. Now, I'm seeing a lot of fuck face people wearing them upset the living Jesus out of me.

This morning at the X Developer Summit in the United Kingdom, Matthew Tippett and John Bridgman of AMD have announced that they will be releasing their ATI GPU specifications without any Non-Disclosure Agreements needed by the developers! In other words, their GPU specifications will be given to developers in the open. Therefore you shouldn't need to worry about another R200 incident taking place.
*sigh of relief* :]
i was getting paranoid there with those nda words floating around.
One reaction could be "it's about friggin' time" or "this is how it supposed to be anyhow"
I prefer, That is so awesome!
Hopefully people will start building nice drivers now too.
I guess it's time to be happy I stuck with ATi/AMD through all these years.
not just yet. we don't have our hands either on 8.41 or new opensource driver or amd specs, do we?I guess it's time to be happy I stuck with ATi/AMD through all these years.
If I was pessimistic all this time I would have switched to Intel/Nvidia ages ago, now wouldn't I?
I'm a (maybe foolish) hopeful person.
And if AMD doesn't deliver? not the .41 and not the .42, then what would keep Micheal (or others of course) from 'leaking' the beta driver? If they'd screw us over that massively, then it would only be 'right' to leak it I think.
Let's see what nVidia does.
Ever since nVidia said publicly (don't ask for link, I tried to find it again, but couldn't it was an old article, thing geforce2 eta) that they where opposed to OSS, I have been opposed nVidia.
You may claim that they offer OSS drivers for some of their chipsets, but I don't think they are theirs (I don't check it that regularly). They used to offer their own binary only net driver for example for a while, and now point to the forcedeth driver, which is reversed engineerd. So for me, nVidia, no thank you. Of course companies can always change their views.
This is superb! Now I just have to learn how to develop drivers...
That's great and I look forward to ATI's continued improvement on Linux. Nonetheless, in the short term, there's not a lot to be all that excited about really. NVidia has always been good to the Linux community. They adopted and integrated the XOrg compositing extensions to support Compiz and Beryl pretty damn quickly. Does AMD even have anything in that area at all yet? Even in the new "improved" 8.41 driver? Not that I've heard of. Again exciting stuff, but my excitement is pretty tempered by the current state of affairs. I fairly recently got a new dual core machine at work and to my horror it had an ATI card in it. Well I immediately had to go beg and plead to the IT gods for an NVidia card so that I could get my Beryl rocking again. Well turns out the IT guy even apologized to me about putting in an ATI/AMD card and he's a Windows guy. So apparently it sucks there too. I wouldn't know. As long as NVidia delivers the goods, I'll let them beat me with their closed source dead fish for as long as they want.

Who says there has to be shame in being a nerd? Some of us may like Civil War era literature a little too much and DVR Jeopardy!, but that doesn't mean we can't go out and have a good time.
This group is for 20- and 30-somethings who are looking to meet fun, down-to-earth people their age who also happen to share some supposedly 'less than cool' interests.
The type of events we do runs the gamut, from board game nights, pub quizzes and ice skating to lectures at the Aquarium of the Pacific and amusement park trips ... all with some nerdiness thrown in, of course!

Does anyone have a reliable souce for the child size blood pressure bladders in Canada. A check here in Ottawa has not turned up a source for the smaller sizes just the adult size. The local medical supply people tell me they can't even order the smaller ones.
I tried ordering them a month ago on the net but still haven't seen anything yet.

It was hard to choose a quote to introduce this week's Undercover Soundtrack. Jennifer Scoullar's novel about Australia's Brumby horses and the people who live among them has a soundtrack of many moods – from the intensely spiritual to the raucously rocking. She has also dedicated Brumby's Run to causes that protect wild horses. In the end, 'fragile but powerful' seems the best way to do it justice. Join me here on Wednesday for her Undercover Soundtrack

Sleeve notes hereFor the soundtrack of My Memories of a Future Life, you'll need Chopin's Sonata in B Minor, Rachmaninov preludes, lashings of Grieg's piano concerto in A minor and The Clash's Rock the Kasbah (they go together well).
You'll also need Samuel Barber's Dover Beach on piano, although that doesn't actually exist so do the best you can.

Series on the line as Samardzija, Latos take hill
The Cubs' treacherous stretch is almost over.
Chicago, losers in 12 of its last 16, completes a string of 17 straight games against teams that last season finished .500 or better on Wednesday afternoon against the Reds.
Despite all the struggles, Chicago has been playing its opposition close. All 19 of the Cubs' games have been decided by four runs or fewer, including 16 games within three runs.
Still, those numbers only go so far. Cubs manager Dale Sveum has made it clear all players must be held accountable, a view shared by general manager Jed Hoyer, who was in Cincinnati on Tuesday to back his manager. Hoyer said he and president of baseball operations Theo Epstein share in the club's poor record, which leaves all involved wanting more.
"It's a black and white business -- our report card is in the paper every day, and you have to look at it that way. Wins and losses, that's how we're measured," Hoyer said prior to Tuesday's win. "I think that's part of why all of us are frustrated. We have played better than our record so far.
"As Bill Parcells said, 'You are what you are,' and we are [6-13], you can't deny that. Feeling we played better doesn't mean anything. We have to be better at converting these games to wins."
One Reds pitcher who hasn't seen results translate to victories is right-hander Mat Latos, who starts Wednesday against Chicago's Jeff Samardzija.
Latos hasn't factored in a decision this season, despite sporting a 2.73 ERA in four outings. The 25-year-old right-hander has been especially good at Great American Ball Park, where he is 9-3 with a 3.01 ERA in 23 starts -- the lowest ERA for any pitcher with at least 10 starts.
Cubs: Ace on the hill
Samardzija received his first Opening Day start this year, an honor he relished. With that nod also comes the added expectation of pitching like an ace, and the Cubs turn to him Wednesday as they look to win consecutive games for the first time this season.
The right-hander has lost three straight starts, though he ranks among the National League strikeout leaders with 31.
• The Cubs have committed 18 errors that have led to 14 unearned runs.
Reds: Making history
Cincinnati pitchers have struck out at least 10 batters in six straight games, the longest streak in Reds' modern history.
• In the last four games, center fielder Shin-Soo Choo has reached base in 18 of his 23 plate appearances.
Worth noting
• Samardzija is four strikeouts shy of entering the Cubs' top 10 all-time strikeout list for April.
• Reds first baseman Joey Votto has only one hit in 11 career at-bats against Samardzija, while second baseman Brandon Phillips is 2-for-13.
• Latos is 2-2 with a 3.16 ERA in five career starts against the Cubs.

Any engineers out there?
I am a mechanical engineering student doing a project using MATLAB to optimize anything I want. I was thinking of trying to optimize something related to surfing. Does anyone have any ideas that I could try? My initial thought was optimizing fins but realized there is not a lot of research dealing with fins. I am open to any ideas, even ones that are not surfing related.

Pretty ring. Love it! I like rose gold and the diamonds are clear, no yellowing.
I've been wanting an eternity band and found this rose gold ring. Very unique - rose gold is hard to find. This is my gift to me for my 50th birthday and upcoming anniversary. I bought one last year that I didn't care for - smaller band, smaller diamonds. This one is the right size and the diamonds are really sparkly. I've been wearing it almost every day. Very nice especially for the price.
I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the ring. The diamonds sparkle quite nicely eventhough they are not the best quality. I have been looking for a rose gold diamond eternity band for a while. I stack it with my yellow and white gold rings. They look great. I have received a number of compliments. I would recommend this item. I see that this ring has been reduced by $10. I wish I could have waited a little longer and received the lowest price.
I've worn this everyday since receiving it and have received numerous complements. It looks much more expensive then what I paid for it.
If this ring is more than a tenth of a carat, I will be shocked. Horrible horrible horrible. Do not waste your time. Awful quality. Ridiculous misrepresentation - 1 carat?!? Yeah right!!!
My problem with this ring was with the luster of the diamonds. Some of them were very heavily included, so much so that they looked grey. Most of them barely sparkled in direct sunlight, and did not compare favorably with my si2 diamond. Color wise, i found the stones to be only slightly off in color from my e color stone. The ring was uncomfortable to wear. Kind of sharp on the insides of my fingers, if that makes sense. Ultimately, i knew it wasnt the one the moment i saw it. I wish other ring seekers better luck with this than i had!!!
This ring is really nice and the price is even better. I went to many stores trying to find something similar and a lot of the stores didn't even carry gold rose rings. It sparkles like crazy and since i have small hands the width of the ring is perfect.
Picture on site does no justice to this ring. This ring is beautiful and I have received so many compliments at work and during family events. Its petite and for the price I am not complaining. Diamonds sparkle depends on lighting. I'm very satisfied with this purchased and would recommend to anyone. It goes perfectly with my engagement ring.

The skiing and snowboarding at Lake Tahoe are spectacular and also offer a great way to stay in shape. Still, these winter sports don't come without risks. Tahoe Center for Orthopedics' specialists share a few tips to help keep every part of you safe on the slopes.
Don't let a slip ruin your backcountry trip. Fractures and dislocations need immediate medical attention, especially while backcountry skiing or riding. Some basic measures can be taken to help an injured person when you're in the backcountry, such as restraining the injured area from moving by using the most practical material you have, such as ski poles, duct tape, and some sort of padding. Keep the joint immobilized both above and below the injured area. - Keith Swanson, M.D.
Get the gist and protect your wrist. Injury patterns among snowboarders are influenced by skill level as well as risk-taking behavior. Snowboarders, in general, are more prone to upper extremity injuries while riding. Beginners and novices are at particularly high risk for wrist fractures. Expert riders have increased incidence of head, spine and torso injuries. While wrist guards and helmets have been shown to reduce wrist and head injuries among snowboarders, the reality is that reducing injury while riding is more about what "is in your head," meaning knowledge and awareness, than what is on your head or wrists. - Daniel Robertson, M.D.
Train to help avoid pain. Cross-training with low-impact sports such as swimming, jogging, soccer, and cycling will not only help get your heart rate up, but may even help prevent an injury while on the slopes. For help with flexibility and balance, as well as core strengthening, try Pilates or yoga. And, don't forget to incorporate overall strength training with a focus on your legs, upper body, and arms. - Stephen Bannar, M.D.
Don't go too long without getting those knees strong. Biking and hiking the hills of South Lake Tahoe during spring, summer, and fall will help you gear up for the winter season. Whether skiing, snowshoeing, playing hockey, cross-country skiing, snowboarding, or even walking in the snow or on ice?stability and strength training are the key to having strong knees. - Terrence Orr, M.D.
Don't be a fool; helmets are cool! Wear a helmet when skiing, snowboarding, or playing hockey. Helmets help prevent concussions and reduce the possibility of a more serious head injury. The most severe potential injury is second impact syndrome, which occurs when an athlete with concussion symptoms returns to play and gets another injury to the head. This can have fatal effects. See a physician promptly if you think you've sustained a concussion. - Jonathan Finnoff, D.O.
Lifting a boulder? Remember that shoulder! OK, so you may not be lifting a boulder any time soon, but warming up before any activity requiring repetitive motion of the shoulder is crucial. Preseason conditioning and strengthening the rotator cuff and core muscles can help prevent injuries. Proper mechanics can take stress off the shoulder, decreasing the chance for injury. The key is to be consistent with your training program. - Kyle Swanson, M.D.
Get the facts and protect your back. Low back injuries are most commonly caused by twisting while sitting or standing in a forward, bent position. But, while on the slopes, speed is the leading factor when it comes to back injuries. The impact of force from going fast down a hill can result in serious back injury and possibly paralysis. In addition to using proper body mechanics, be sure to slow down, look ahead, and never ski in a manner that puts you or others at risk for injury. - Michael Fry, M.D.
Take a dip for a stronger hip. We pay attention to our back, knees, and shoulders when training for the ski season, but the hip is a vital bone that often gets ignored. The three joints that are the most taxed on the slopes are the knees, hips, and ankles. Apart from the use of all the major muscle groups, swimming helps keep hip joints flexible and builds strength and endurance. - Robert Rupp, M.D.

County office of education approves layoffs
Mona HillStaff Writer3/24/2010The regular meeting of the Plumas County Office of Education is usually pro forma - over and done in 15 minutes. Not so March 9, when Superintendent Glenn Harris and Assistant Superintendent Bruce Williams, who is responsible for personnel matters, presented a resolution of intent to dismiss 5.83 full-time equivalent faculty positions.
The move has the potential to impact nine individual teachers in the career technical education and regional occupational programs.
An indication that something was amiss came before the meeting began, when Jonathan Kusel, Indian Valley's representative on the board, questioned Betty Moura, Harris' administrative assistant, about the placement of the pertinent resolution under information items rather than action items.
Moura told him Harris had instructed her to place the items there and referred him to Harris.
As the COE meeting moved through the agenda, Director of Business Yvonne Bales presented the county office of education's second interim budget to the board. Bales told the board funding for ROP and CTE classes had been severely reduced.
She said the expense of the County Community School and alternative education schools run by the county office were the primary cause of deficit spending in the current school year. According to Bales, the state funds about 80 percent of the allocated funds for those programs.
Paul Mrowczynski followed Bales with an update on the 2010-2011 Tech Prep Regional Distribution Points Project grant. The project will facilitate a regional, coordinated support system for CTE.
After a brief presentation by Mrowczynski, the meeting moved on to the bones of contention, the resolutions concerning layoffs.
By way of introduction Harris said, "On the next item on the agenda, resolution on the intent to dismiss certificated employees, that action has been taken by county superintendent.
"There are some questions that I think it would be helpful for the board to understand how this works. There are some things that might seem contrary in that."
Harris then called upon Williams, who informed trustees of the recommendation for a reduction of 5.83 FTE, or nine certificated ROP/CTE staff members. Williams said Harris had accepted the recommendation.
In follow-up telephone conversations the week of March 16, Williams confirmed layoff notices went out in the mail prior to the March 15 deadline for PCOE and PUSD.
On the county side, three Chester High School teachers received notices impacting 12 sections in construction, desktop publishing and ASB leadership.
Two of the notices were outright layoffs and one was for a reduction from full time to part time.
At Greenville High School two faculty members received notices of reduction from full time to part time. The reduction will affect nine sections of culinary arts, natural resources and office occupations.
Portola High School will lose 14 sections in computer applications and industrial technology; three teachers will become part time and one will be laid off.
Quincy High School was the least impacted: One teacher will become part time and four sections of computer applications will be lost.
From the district, two teachers received notices: one K6 teacher at C. Roy Carmichael in Portola and one office management teacher at QHS. Feather River College funded that particular section.
A second notice is due to the same faculty members by May 15, to confirm the notice already received.
Williams anticipated that when funding became clearer, the county office would not need to lay off all of the teachers. The number was to allow flexibility in planning which sections would be eliminated.
Asked about previously announced hiring, Williams said the district was hiring to replace up to 17 retiring teachers from those laid off back as far back as 2006 - 2007.
He said the PCOE faculty laid off would not be eligible for re-hire to fill those positions because specialized credentials did not make them eligible for rehire.
At the March 9 meeting, in response to Harris' request to explain the fiscal considerations of the resolutions to dismiss and to not re-elect, Bales returned to the podium to explain to the trustees that base funding for ROP and career tech classes has been adjusted to 2007 - 2008 average daily attendance levels, or 267 ADA.
She explained the ADA determined PCOE's percentage of the state funds available for ROP/CTE classes.
Bales said as the pool of funds from the lottery and other allocations shrinks, the county's static percentage, approximately 2 percent, also shrinks, through 2012-2013, regardless of current ADA.
At that point, Kusel asked for clarification from board president Brad Baker as to why action had already been taken without prior discussion by the board.
Kusel said, "I was always under the understanding that the board is making a decision about layoffs in this district - county and district side. I understand that there may be a disagreement in our understanding of that."
Harris responded, "I don't know if there's a disagreement in your understanding of it; I can tell you quite simply the county board is an advisory board. They do not need to take actions on the resolutions of this nature; that is under the role of the county superintendent of schools. Under the school district, the school board has to take all actions regarding personnel."
Kusel persisted in asking for clarification, saying that historically it was something the board had always done. "It's interesting that these are listed as board resolutions and yet they are under information items."
He continued, "The scale of these layoffs has profound policy implications in terms of what we're doing at particular school sites. Because they have those policy implications, there needs to be discussion about this at a deeper level.
"The scale and the number of sections we're talking about can prove to be devastating at some of the sites. And, it's not just one site, it is multiple sites.
"I think they are very, very, very significant policy issues embedded in this."
Baker responded, "Very good, I've got a little different remembrance than you do. I don't recall us ever doing board resolutions on the county side. So that's part of my confusion here as well. But I don't ever recall us actually taking action on personnel items on the county side. So ... there it is."
Harris said, "And if you did, as a county board, I would say then, as a county board, you may have been misled."
At which point Baker audibly chuckled.
"That's all I can tell you," Harris concluded.
Kusel: "My point still stands though in terms of the significance and scale. If I'm wrong, I will accept that. I still think embedded in them ... when we at school sites rely on those ROP sections to allow those other schedules to work and they're not there, we are making decisions that go beyond these things and they have implications on the PUSD side."
Harris: "Yes, they do."
Kusel continued on the significance of ROP in school scheduling, concluding with a plea for a deeper discussion on the matter.
Baker and Harris agreed with Kusel's assessment, and Kusel pressed on for deeper discussion of the embedded issues and impacts the resolution would have on individual school sites.
Baker again concurred, at the same time citing Williams' earlier presentation, "In order to meet the budgetary requirements, we have to issue more notices than we may intend."
Williams added, "You may always go back from the point you set tonight (number of layoff notices), but you can never do more than you do tonight."
Kusel, fighting a rearguard action, indicated he understood the strategy of sending out more notices than might be required. He asked the board, "Hear my plea in light of the larger picture."
Williams mentioned the final information item, Resolution 0910-06, in the Matter of the Decision Not to Re-elect Probationary Certificated Employee."
The board moved on, without further comment, to the superintendent's report on distance learning, school funding and a budget update.
