Deadline Day!
The Spring Bulbs deadline has arrived! I would like to say a HUGE thank you for working so hard to get all your weather and flower records in to me on time.
Which schools have had their first flowers?
Balcurvie Primary School, Chatelherault Primary School, Glencairn Primary School, St. Blanes Primary School, St. Patrick's Primary School, Tynewater Primary School and Wormit Primary School in Scotland, and Brynhyfryd Junior School, Cleddau Reach VC Primary School, Coed-y-Lan Primary,St Athan Primary, St Mellons Church in Wales Primary School, Ysgol Bro Eirwg, Ysgol Iau Hen Golwyn and Ysgol Y Plas in Wales, have all seen their first flowers open. In England, Bleasdale CE Primary School, Combe Primary School, Cutteslowe Primary School and Flakefleet Primary School, all sent their first flower records.Well done and thank you to these schools!
Keep sending in your flower records!
As I said in my blog last week, if your plants have flowers but they have not opened yet, please keep watching them and send me your records when they open. They will not be in time to be in this year's Spring Bulbs Report, but they will make next year's report more accurate.
What if you didn't have a flower?
Thank you to all the pupils who have sent me a record to say their plant did not flower, or that their flower did not open (you can do this by clicking 'Didn't open' in the Flower Record). I know it can be a bit disappointing if your plant does not flower. But please don't be sad! One thing that a Super Scientist must learn is that experiments don't always work out the way we want them to! This does not mean that the experiment has failed. For a scientist it is JUST AS IMPORTANT to record when something does not happen, as when it does.
You will get a Super Scientist certificate and pencil if you worked hard and helped with the Super Scientist Investigation – whether your flower opened or not!
Wildflower Meadow at National Museum Cardiff
Here at National Museum Cardiff we are experimenting with growing a wildflower meadow. Do you have a wildflower meadow at your school? We have planted some seeds and bulbs and the first flowers to appear have been crocuses and daffodils! Here is a picture of them. It doesn't look much like a meadow yet does it? But hopefully by the summer it will look very different. The muddy circle is where we have planted lots of red Poppies to remember the First World War. This year it is the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War and here at Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales, we will have events and exhibitions that tell the stories of the people of Wales during the War. Click here to find out more.
Your questions, my answers:
Dallas Road Community Primary School: Hi Proffeser Plant!! Prof P: Hi everyone at Dallas Road!
Pinfold Primary School: nearly all the bulbs have opened. The mystery bulbs are blooming very well. The crocus is growing purple flowers. Prof P: What were your mystery bulbs Pinfold?
Glyncollen Primary School: Hello Professor Plant, We're excited because our bulbs have now sprung and we can't wait to get our certificates. From, Year 4. Prof P: Congratulations Year 4! I look forward to sending them to you, you are Super Scientists!
Ysgol Terrig: Our Bulbs have opened and they are 15cm tall :). Prof P: Great measuring Ysgol Terrig.
Rougemont Junior School: What a warm a dry week Professor Plant, our crocuses are all blooming as are our daffodils. Prof P: All the colours look so lovely don't they?
St. Ignatius Primary School: We have uploaded our weather records for this week but unfortunately our bulbs have not flowered just yet. We are disappointed as this is the last week and we can see them coming along but not as quick as we would have hoped. We will continue to keep an eye on them and let you know when they have flowered. Our teacher will need to do this next week as P7 are off to Kilbowie in Oban for an outward bound trip. Prof P: Please don't be disappointed P7, your results are still really important, even if your flowers didn't open by the deadline. Enjoy your trip it sounds like fun!
Kilmaron Special School: We are using the findings of our daily temperature readings and rainfall as evidence in our SQA National 1 Measurement unit. Prof P: That is fantastic Kilmaron, I am so glad it is helping you with your qualification.
Stanford in the Vale Primary School: Thank you very much we really enjoyed it and are datherdils are blooming and are very healthy and strong through all of these conditions. Stanford in the vale gardening club. Prof P: I am so glad you enjoyed it Stanford, that makes me very happy!

Many Thanks
Professor Plant
Professor Plant's flowers have opened!
I am so excited because my flowers have finally opened! They are so pretty and make me smile every time I see them! My crocus opened on 16 March and was 90mm tall, my daffodil opened one day later and was 240mm tall. Here is a photo of them.
Thankyou very much Stanford Gardening Club from Stanford in the Vale CE Primary School in England for sending me a photo of your first daffodil! Would anyone else like to send me some photos of their plants? I will put them on the website too!
Which schools have had their first flowers?

One more week to go…
There is only one more week to go before the Spring Bulbs project deadline. Please remember to send in your records by the 28 March.
What do you do if your flowers have not opened by the deadline?
Please keep sending in flower data! If your flowers have not opened and you would like to carry on with your investigation then please do! When they open you can still record the flowering date and plant height on our website.
I set a deadline because every year I write a special report that gives a summary of all the data sent in so far. I need to write the report in April. All records sent in before the deadline will be included in this year's report. Records sent in after the deadline will be added to our database and will be included in next year's report.
All the records that you send are very important. I promise you that all your data will be included in the project and will help the investigation to be more accurate in the future.
Have you seen any signs of spring while you have been out playing? On the weekend I saw a bumblebee, a ladybird and some little baby lambs! I looked in a pond but I didn't see any frogspawn. Have you seen any frogspawn? What other signs of spring have you seen?

Only 2 weeks to send me your records
Will you be a Super Scientist this year? The deadline for sending in your records is 28 March. If you send me your weather and flower records (if they have opened) then you will be a Super Scientist! All Super Scientists will receive a Certificate and a fabulous Super Scientist pencil. You will also have the chance to win a Nature Activity trip or some seeds to grow your own Sunflowers!
Why not send me your drawings for the Daffodil Drawing Competition? The deadline is also 28 March. For this competition I will be looking for botanical illustrations – these are pictures of plants drawn in a scientific way. Please send me your lovely drawings, but I would also like them to have clear labels to show the different parts of the Daffodil. You can follow this link to see the winners and runners up from last year's competition. Winners will get a bird watching kit with mini binoculars for their class, runners up will get flower seeds to grow!
My plants in pots have still not flowered, but over at St Fagans National History Museum the crocuses growing in their garden look beautiful. The bees like them too, as you can see in the photo! Can you see that the bumblebee has yellow pollen all over its head and body? When it flies off to a different crocus it will pass the pollen on – this is how flowers are fertilised!
Your questions, my answers:
Raglan VC Primary: Still no sign of the flowers this week! We are having some good weather. Prof P: Don't worry Raglan School, mine haven't flowered yet either. Hopefully the good weather will help our plants to flower.
Cutteslowe Primary School: Monday 17th - school closed, no heating or hot water. Prof P: Brrrr that sounds very chilly.
Manor Road Primary School (Lancashire): One of are crocus bulbs are starting to flower. Prof P: Fantastic news Manor Road, Congratulations!
Chatelherault Primary School: Wk 10: Most of our plants have started to too grow. It has raining a lot and some snow. Prof P: We didn't have any snow at all in Cardiff this year, but we did have lots of rain.
The Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School: It has been so exciting this week as the buds all suddenly started to appear and on Friday some crocus flowers opened! The daffodils have suddenly grown and we know it won't be long before they too flower. They just love the sunshine! Prof P: Hooray! It's such a lovely feeling to see your flowers open isn't it?
Greyfriars RC Primary School: S - ten of our crocuses have budded. Prof P: Great news S. at Greyfriars, I'm sure the other crocuses won't be far behind.
Dallas Road Community Primary School: Super Fun!!! Prof P: I'm so glad you think so Dallas Road! Science IS Super Fun!
Many Thanks
Professor Plant
The 1st flower records for Scotland!
Congratulations to Ladywell Primary School for sending in the first flower records for Scotland! Lakeside Primary School in Wales have also sent in their first flower records – their first crocus and first daffodil opened in the same week! Great work bulb buddies.
Three weeks to go… The deadline for sending in your weather and flower records is Friday 28 March, so there are just three weeks to go!
If you have been keeping records but haven't sent them to me yet then please send them soon – all your weather and flower records are really important to me! Every record you send in will make the Spring Bulbs Investigation better and more accurate.
Don't worry if your flowers haven't opened yet, a lot can happen in three weeks, especially if the sun shines!
Would you like to do a Super Scientific Investigation with your plants? I have put together some great ideas for experiments you can do in your school! Can you trick your crocus? Can your daffodil move? Click here to have a look: Professor Plant's investigation ideas. As well as exciting experiments you will also find my favorite Spring Poem here! It is about daffodils and this is the first verse:
I wander'd lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
By William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
Beautiful! Have you ever tried to write a poem about Spring? Or about your favourite flower? Why not give it a go?
Your questions, my answers:
Ladywell Primary School: We have had our computer system upgraded in school and it has been difficult for us to send weekly weather reports because we lost a lot of data which was stored on our apple mac and which we cant convert to PC. However we have been taking temperatures and it has not really been cold and we have had a lot of rain. Some of our plants didn't grow very well but our first daffodil opened today 25th February and it is 28 cm tall. We have another one about to open and some others not far away. We hope this is ok with you and we will send more information soon. Prof P: Sorry to hear you have had computer trouble Ladywell School, don't worry, I completely understand. Thanks very much for sending your first flower record! Keep up the good work and send in your other flower records when they open.
Lakeside Primary: Daffodil comment: Only one is open and the one that has opened has only got half a pot of compost, we think it was knocked over and some soil lost so perhaps less soil has led to quicker flowering, but why? Prof P: Great question Lakeside! Do you have any ideas? This is my theory: A bulb closer to the surface may flower sooner because it warms up quicker and has less soil to push through when it starts to grow. So why don't we plant them all close to the surface? Well, if there is a very cold winter the frost can damage bulbs that are too close to the surface, and then they may not grow at all.
The Blessed Sacrament Catholic Primary School: We all brought our wellies into school this week so that we can go out and look at our bulbs whatever the weather. We went to check on them all on Friday and measured how tall the leaves were, and started recording them in a table like we had been doing in maths. We hope to do this every week now then we can make a graph of the results. Still no sign of flowers yet! Prof P: What a fantastic idea! I love making graphs, they are a great way to see what the numbers are telling me. You must be very dedicated scientists to bring your wellies in to school so you can measure your leaves. Well done, I am very impressed!

I'm an Italian boy. Actually I'm studying Computer Science Engineering (Software Engineering) at the University of Catania.
Main interests
I really like programming. I am very experienced in Microsoft ASP.NET web applications development but also in other languages and application types:
- Microsoft ASP.NET for web applications development (C#, VB.NET, F#)
- Microsoft .NET Framework for software development (C#, VB.NET, F#)
- Microsoft WCF and WPF applications
- C++ with Boost library integration
- Java (SE and EE) for applications development
I also like creating graphics, animations and presentation using the most popular applications ni the Adobe families (I saw Flash growing since when it was still a baby, 5.0, and it was still Macromedia).
I like travelling a lot, and the best part of travelling is experiencing new languages, new sounds new people and culture. I actually love Asia. I lived in Japan for one year and worked there. Made also a lot of friends and gonna return there soon (I hope).
I also like sports. I practiced many but now I almost focus on human swimming and open water human swimming.

With cheap flights to Norway readily available from all major airlines and airports, the gorgeous wilderness of Scandinavia beckons. For those with a passion for outdoor pursuits, there are few better destinations in the world. Locations such as the Geirangerfjord, named on UNESCO's World Heritage List, provide all manner of adventurous activities, as well as the simple beauty of the Norwegian fjords. Alternatively, one can head even further north to the Lofoten Islands and settle in to experience the midnight sun. Norway has a particularly strong maritime tradition and its coastal wildlife is truly stunning.
Historical attractions
If urban adventures are your style, Norway will not disappoint. With cheap flights to Oslo readily available, the beautiful capital city is within easy reach. Historical attractions abound, including the Fram museum, dedicated to the Norwegian legacy of polar exploration, and the Viking Ship museum, covering Norway's medieval history. For those who prefer art and culture, consider the Munch Museum, along with the Oslo Opera House. If you prefer more contained urban experiences, the seaport of Ålesund is regularly voted the most beautiful city in Norway. Visitors are charmed by its distinctive Jugendstil architecture, built after the town, previous largely constructed of wood, was destroyed by fire in 1904. Surrounded by fjords and the Sunnmøre Alps, it boasts all that is best about this beautiful Scandinavian country.
Simply put, a holiday in Norway caters to all tastes. Both cultural mavens and adrenaline junkies will find something, all of it is within easy reach of a cheap flight from continental Europe and beyond.

Middle Eastern paralympic athlete 'refuses' to shake hands with the Duchess
An Iranian Paralympic athlete "refused" to shake hands with Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge and wife of Prince William, when she presented him with his silver medal on Sunday. Or so Britain's Daily Mail newspaper reported this week.
The 40-year-old Mehrdad Karam Zadeh did not offer his hand to the Duchess as she presented medals for the discus event Sunday. Instead, he clutched his hands close to his chest and bowed.
Middleton reached to shake hands with gold medal winner Aled Davies of Great Britain and bronze winner Lezheng Wang, from China.
But she did offer her hand to Zadeh either, since she had reportedly been briefed about the convention, observed in a number of Muslim cultures, which prohibits contact between unrelated men and women.
Middleton was reportedly "happy to accept [Zadeh's] wishes," and "considered it an honor to present the medals."
Do you think Mehrdad should have shook hands with Kate? Or was it better to stick to his principles? Tell us what you think below.
Top Headlines
- True romance: Wills and Kate join a tradition of love that includes Jordan's Rania and Abdullah
- Prince William, Kate Middleton are married, Arab leaders celebrate
- British stereotypes uncovered: Will-Kate 'toasted married life with a cup of tea'; Tears at the wedding
- Libyan children 'congratulate' royal couple in a bizarre way
- Arab Games Medals not Worth their Weight in Gold, According to Contestants
It's not for me me to think if he did right or wrong. It's what has been said in Islam.
The question "Do you think Mehrdad should have shook hands with Kate?" is in itself wrong because you are putting him under the spotlight as if he made a mistake in doing what he did. The Duchess is the one to be under the spotlight here. She's a public figure and she was certainly briefed of the Muslim custom prior to meeting the athlete. Therefore, the question should be directed to her wrong action and not to the athlete's action. However, knowing the Arab stand against Iranians, I am not surprised the question is twisted and biased at the root.

Sam believes that freedom is an illusion. Humans act according to the laws of nature, which completely determine our behaviour. Therefore, the notions of "acting", "choosing", "deciding", "doing"... are all mere illusions. I have a few questions related to this topic.
1. Morality is about what persons ought to do. But doing is a mere illusion. Therefore, there is no place for morality. What's wrong with this reasoning? Why does Sam write books about morality?
2. If freedom is an illusion, then why does this illusion exist? Are there scientific reasons for the illusion of freedom?
3. If freedom is an illusion, then why do we have developed a conscious mind? What is the function of conscience if not to guide our actions? Or does Sam believe that conscience is an illusion too?
All the best

- ―Salvatore Leone to Toni Cipriani about Paulie.
Paul "Paulie" Sindacco, is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series that appears as a main character and the secondary antagonist in Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories. Paulie was the Don of the Sindacco Family, that also owned Caligula's Palace and Paulie's Revue Bar untill his death.
Not much is know about Paulie's early life.
A relative (possibly son) of his, Johnny Sindacco, died of a shock-induced heart attack in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas in 1992 after coming face-to-face with Carl Johnson who previously did grievous harm to him.
Events of GTA Liberty City Stories
Arrival to Liberty City
The Sindaccos own Paulie's Revue Bar and the Doll's House on the outskirts of Hepburn Heights.
The Sindaccos funneled money from their casinos in Las Venturas to continue their conquest of Leone and Forelli families turf on Portland Island and Staunton Island.
Paulie is constantly going back and forth from Liberty City to Las Venturas, leaving the day-to-day operations of the crime family to his capos, who are strictly kept in line by Paulie himself.
Dealing with the Forellis
- "This car's trying to kill me!"
- ―Paulie when Toni controls his car.
Paulie tries to ally himself with the Forellis, and their leader, Franco Forelli, in order to take down the Leones.
Salvatore Leone learned about this, and sent his best man, Toni Cipriani, to take control over Paulie's car. Toni did this and killed all the Forelli members in the meeting. This ruined Paulie's chances with the Forellis.
- "Hey Toni! Why don't you swim over here and kiss my ass?"
- ― Paulie's last words
After Salvatore goes to the jail, he thinks that Paulie was one of the men behind that. Salvatore sends Toni to kill Paulie before he he escapes out the city. Toni shoots him down in his boat.
After Paulie's death, the Sindaccos left Liberty City, having no leader or business left in the city. Paulie was buried in the Liberty City Cemetery. His tombstone has the epitaph "Viva Las Venturas, Baby" engraved on it.

Deadline reports that TNT has decided to cancel King & Maxwell after one season. The 10th and final episode aired on August 12th.
The show revolves around a pair of Secret Service agents (Jon Tenney and Rebecca Romijn) who opened their own detective agency after they were fired. Michael O'Keefe, Chris Butler, and Ryan Hurst round out the cast.
King & Maxwell remained fairly consistent during its 10 episode run and averaged 3.11 million viewers. The premiere attracted 3.52 million viewers and the finale drew 3.50 million.
While it wasn't as big a hit as Rizzoli & Isles (5.7 million) and Major Crimes (4.9 million), it wasn't that far behind Perception (3.5 million).
What do you think? Are you sorry that there won't be a second season for King & Maxwell? How do you think it compares to the other TNT dramas?

A new age in electrification
Low-carbon electricity is at the core of a sustainable energy system
Low-carbon electricity is a prerequisite to reducing fossil fuel use and to mitigating CO2 emissions not only in power generation but across all the end-use sectors (industry, transport and buildings). The power generation sector is responsible for roughly 40% of CO2 emissions, but it is a relatively centralised sector. Decarbonising the world's power sector impacts the entire energy system and is crucial for achieving deep emissions cuts in a relatively short time, until 2050, as required in the ETP 2012 2°C Scenario (2DS), which if achieved gives the world an 80% chance of keeping average global temperature rise below 2°C compared to pre industrial levels.

When their descent from the sky doesn't go as planned, the Straw Hats find themselves trapped in the Marine stronghold of Navarone. This impenetrable island is surrounded by scraggy stone walls and governed by a military mastermind known as Commander Jonathan. Pirates imprisoned within Navarone's walls seldom live to see the other side, but not even the great Commander Jonathan has ever faced foes as formidable as Luffy and his crew.
Eager to escape the island and get back in the water, the Straw Hats hatch a plan to spring Zoro from the clink, reclaim their confiscated gold, and rendezvous at the Going Merry for a life-or-death, do-or-die, daring dash into the freedom of the deep blue sea! The sailing certainly won't be smooth, and it'll take all hands on deck to survive this scrape!

President Barack Obama's administration is buying fewer hybrid and electric cars and more vehicles that can consume both ethanol and gasoline to meet 2015 environmental goals, favoring older technology over new. Obama gave speeches across the U.S. last year touting his twin goals of buying only alternative-fuel vehicles for the U.S. fleet by 2015 and getting 1 million electric vehicles on the country's roads by that year.

Product: Mobile > Cell Phones > T-Mobile Cell Phones > SGH-T749
Why Is My SGH-T749 (Highlight) Phone No Longer Recognizing Voice Commands?
Voice dialing works well for most people without special adaptation. Speak clearly when giving your command. There is no need for you to speak slowly or with added emphasis. The voice recognition software has been optimized to understand your speech in its natural form. If it does not recognize your command after a few seconds, a voice prompt asks you to repeat the command. If it does not recognize your command again, the following message displays "Sorry, no match found," and voice recognition turns off.
However, people with strong accents or unique voice characteristics may receive better results if they follow these tips:
If the handset is still not recognizing your voice commands you may need to adapt Nuance Voice Recognition to better recognize your voice. Adapting voice recognition requires recording multiple sequences of words and numbers. The entire adaptation process takes approximately one minute.
Note: You should adapt Voice Recognition only if the system is frequently unable to recognize your speech. After you adapt Voice Recognition, the handset is customized to your voice, and your voice only. Others will not be able to use it unless they reset voice recognition to factory defaults.
To adjust the settings and preferences for Nuance Voice Recognition Settings follow the steps below:

TomTom GO 700 Garners 6th Place in T3's List of Top 100 Gadgets of 2005

TomTom GO 700 Garners 6th Place in T3's List of Top 100 Gadgets of 2005
TomTom GO 700 is listed in 6th place in T3 magazine's Top 100 Gadgets of 2005. It says, "..it's not all about the visuals; clinching a spot in the top ten was also down to the device's preloaded street maps of Europe, a choice of over 50 different voices in over 30 languages and the way it raises its voice when you're going to fast."
It continues, "Plus, you can use it with your Bluetooth phone to pick up calls hands-free (by tapping the screen) or ring up points of interest without ploughing through directory enquiries."
The article is complimented by a consumer quote and interesting fact around the increased sales of TomTom standalone devices since 2004.

When Green Day: Rock Band launches June 8, it'll have Green Day albums American Idiot and Dookie, in their entirety, on the disc.
The news comes from European retailer Play who confirmed tracks from the "classic" Dookie Green Day to newer, more political American Idiot offerings.
What's more, the listing says Green Day members Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool all lent their digital likenesses to the game and provided full motion capture to bottle the band's sometime zany on-stage antics appropriately.

Sipping soda with the bratty, poppy punkers as they prepare for their Broadway debut. It's like "Tommy falling down the stairs and running into Hedwig!"
It's been sixteen years since Green Day emerged from Oakland, California, with catchy top-40 punk songs about girlfriends, masturbation, and stoner slackerdom. But though the three still-boyish men are still dressed in Chucks, leather jackets, and skinny jeans and still sport tinted hair, they have matured a bit, drummer Tre Cool says to me while plopped on a couch at 119 Bar, on East 15th Street.

--Even the best insulated coffee cups will be luke warm except on extremely short rides
Sounds cool. And I've found it extremely useful for carrying things that weren't coffee (e.g., MSR type fuel bottles, odd sized beverage bottles, metal/glass bottles without clatter). But this turns out just to be a bad place to carry hot coffee. The windflow over your bike will almost certainly cool it down right-quick. And since you couldn't effectively drink coffee held here (both because it'd be a challenge to get out and because you'd burn your chin), you might as well just pack it in a pannier.

NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Four RedHawks scored in double figures, led by junior guard Will Sullivan's 21 points, as Miami University's men's basketball team captured a 79-64 win at Tennessee State on Saturday evening. It was the first road win for the RedHawks (3-6) this season.
It was the second 20-point scoring effort for Sullivan in the last five and two off his career high. Freshman forward Joshua Oswald added career highs of 11 points and a game-best 11 rebounds, while senior forward Will Felder amassed 19 points and three blocked shots, and freshman guard Jaryd Eustace chipped in a career-high 13 points.
Miami shot a season-high 56.5 percent from the field against the Tigers, including a 57.1 percent effort in the opening half. After a combined 41 turnovers over its last two games, the RedHawks committed just 10 turnovers against TSU, with a mere two turnovers coming in the first half.
After TSU (1-12) built a 13-8 lead, Miami used a 9-0 run, bolstered by four points from Felder, to take a 17-13 advantage with 12:33 to go in the first half. The Tigers came back with an 8-0 flurry to post a 21-17 edge at the 10:21 mark. A Sullivan triple at 5:02 gave Miami a 26-24 lead, and the RedHawks never looked back. Miami was able to push its advantage to 30-37 off a Eustace triple with 44 seconds left and carried a five-point advantage going into the intermission after a TSU jumper with 12 seconds remaining, 37-32.
The Tigers trimmed the Miami lead to two at the 17:21 mark of the second half, but Miami staged an 8-0 run to push its advantage to double figures by the 15:11 mark, 45-35. A Sullivan layup at 7:12 furthered the RedHawk lead to 15 points, 63-48, and Miami led by 15 three more times, including the final tally.
TSU's Patrick Miller led all scorers with 26 points.
Miami has eight days off before it returns home to host Southern Illinois at 3:30 p.m. in the second game of a doubleheader at Millett Hall with the Miami women's team hosting Cleveland State at 1 p.m.

OMB names finalists, opens voting for SAVE Award
Tuesday - 12/18/2012, 11:40am EST
During a time when Congress and the White House are debating trillions in cuts, sometimes it's the simple idea that may have the most tangible impact.
Take one idea to limit the use of court reporters or transcribers during federal meetings, or stopping the use of buses to shuttle federal employees between agencies for meetings, both could save the government real money.
These are two of the four ideas that reached the finals in the administration's annual hunt for money saving ideas. The Office of Management and Budget opened public voting today on the fourth annual Securing Americans Value and Efficiency (SAVE) Award.
The four finalists rose to the top out of 10,000 total ideas, which garnered 12,000 comments and 71,000 votes from 17,000 users. This is the fewest number of ideas, comments and votes in the history of the program. In 2009, OMB received 38,000 ideas; in 2010, it received 18,000 suggestions; last year it received 19,000 ideas.
Few would argue that these ideas will be anything more than a drop of water in an ocean of fiscal problems, but the goal of the administration with the SAVE Awards has been as much around getting rid of long-standing processes that make little sense anymore as it has to save money.
"Over the last four years, federal workers have submitted tens of thousands of ideas to curb unnecessary spending, both in their own agencies and across the government — covering everything from implementing new measures to conserve energy use to cutting back on paper copies of publications already available online like the Federal Register," wrote acting OMB Director Jeff Zients in a blog post today. "These ideas alone won't solve the Nation's long-term fiscal challenges, but they are saving hundreds of millions of dollars and represent common-sense steps to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of government and provide a better value to the American people."
The finalists are:
- Frederick Winter suggests the government shift employees to senior transit fares when they become eligible for using public transportation. Winter, who works for the Department of Education, said in the Washington area, this change would lower the cost of the employee's travel by 50 percent, with no loss in the effective benefits for the employee.
- Angela Leroux recommends reducing employee shuttle buses to take employees from one agency to another for meetings. She says too often these vehicles sit idle or travel their routes with just a few passengers. Leroux, who works at the Internal Revenue Service, said agencies could eliminate or consolidate the bus service and encourage the use of conference and video calls, or provide Metro cards to those with a need to travel.
- James Szender said agencies should use digital transcription for all federal meetings and hearings. Szender, who works at the Department of Interior, proposes, whenever possible, using digital equipment for transcripts instead of hiring a court reporter, since using digital transcription is significantly less expensive than contracting with a certified court reporter to attend, record and transcribe the proceedings.
- Laurie Dempsey proposes the Homeland Security Department's Customs and Border Protection post customs inspection information online at CBP.gov instead of issuing it on paper and requiring it to be posted in the customs house. Dempsey, who works for DHS, said the weekly bulletin lists all imported items that have completed the customs inspection process and can be hundreds of pages long. She said putting the information online would save paper, reduce costs and make it easier for the public to find out what items have been inspected without having to visit the facility in person.
Voting will be open until noon on Dec. 21, 2012 and OMB will include the winning idea in the fiscal 2014 budget request. The winner will get to present their idea to the president as well. Traditionally, OMB also includes other potential money saving ideas in the budget request. Last year, it submitted 26 that came from the SAVE Award contest.
Previous winners included Nancy Fichtner's idea in 2009 to let veterans take home the medication they receive at the Veteran Affairs hospital instead of throwing it away. In 2010, Trudy Givens of the Bureau of Prisons won for suggesting ending the mailing of thousands of Federal Registers to federal employees.
In 2011, NASA's Matthew Ritsko proposed a "lending library" to make it easier for agencies to find tools and equipment that others already paid for and could be reused.

The Northside duo of Jamal Parker and Josh Cabrera put on a show Saturday night, which also put everyone on notice that the Monarchs were the best boys' basketball team in Onslow County.
Parker scored 34 points and Cabrera came within one assist of recording a triple-double as Northside defeated Southwest 73-56 in the Onslow County Classic championship game at Jacksonville High School.
Parker, a senior guard, emerged as the annual tournament's most valuable player after he finished 13 of 23 from the floor and 4 of 4 from the free throw line. He made four 3-pointers.
But Parker wasn't the only difference for the Monarchs. Cabrera, a junior guard who made the all-tournament team, added 21 points, 13 rebounds and 9 assists for Northside (10-0), which defeated Southwest (8-2) for the second time this season.
"With Josh and Jamal obviously both playing at a high level tonight, they both were hard to stop," Northside coach Tony Marshburn said. "The thing about them is that they both are competitors and both are fearless. Jamal came out hot, but we had to get Josh on track.
"When we get the two of those clicking, we are hard to stop."
The 1-2 punch of Parker and Cabrera helped Northside earn its second Onslow County Classic title but first since the inaugural tournament in 2006. The Monarchs lost to Lejeune in last year's final aboard Camp Lejeune.
One year later, Northside is Onslow's best.
"It's an awesome feeling for the players. I'm happy for them," Marshburn said. "They went out there and earned it. I thought we had a great three days and that the kids came in focused each night."
The Monarchs also kept the Stallions from winning the tournament for the second time in three years. Southwest captured the title in 2010, ironically at Northside High School.
"The guys played as hard as they could and they never gave up," Southwest coach Tommy Barnes said. "We just went up against a good Northside team. They played well."
More precisely, the Stallions went up against a solid combination of Parker and Cabrera.
Parker got going from the start, scoring 10 points in the first quarter with two coming on a short running jumper with 15 seconds left in the period that gave the Monarchs a 13-11 lead.
Parker added four points in the second quarter and 10 in a third quarter that saw Northside pull away. Parker finished with 10 in the fourth quarter.
"As soon as I made my first shot I was on," Parker said. "My teammates set screens for me so I could get open."
And Cabrera got open with dribble penetration. Most of his damage came in a second quarter that saw the Monarchs use a 10-2 run to take a 25-17 lead.
"That was the game plan," Cabrera said of his penetration. "But I came in hard-headed. I wasn't doing it at the start of the game."
But like Parker, once Cabrera got going, he was hard to stop.
"Josh, he can it all," Parker said. "He can rebound, score and get assists."
Cabrera can also handle the ball, which proved important since the Stallions thrive on forcing turnovers and turning them in transition points.
The Monarchs committed just 13 turnovers, five coming in the first quarter.
"They (Stallions) are very quick in transition and so we had to limit our turnovers," Marshburn said. "The thing about it was we started moving the ball better in the second half and we had to make sure we had somebody rotate back on defense."
Senior center Corey Wohlever led Southwest with 14 points and 9 rebounds while junior forward J'Veon Walker added 13 points and junior guard Jeffrey Williams chipped in with 10 points.
Both Wohlever and Williams made the all-tournament team.
And while Barnes agreed that Northside's limited turnovers prevented the Stallions from running, he also pointed out that his team's disadvantage on the glass also held Southwest's tempo down.
"Northside was a reason we couldn't get into transition," said Barnes, adding he wanted his team to also try to make others besides Parker beat the Stallions. "You have to get rebounds to have any chance, and they (Monarchs) outrebounded us."
Northside had four players grab at least 6 rebounds.
"A bunch of guys chipped in with rebounds or assists," Marshburn said. "I thought we did a very good job on the boards in the second half."
That edge on the boards allowed the Monarchs to pull away in the third quarter. Northside used a 10-0 run in the period to build a 52-33 lead, with Parker scoring five points in the run and Cabrera adding four.
Overall in the second half Northside hit 51 percent from the floor while Southwest shot 31 percent.
"I thought they (Stallions) got a little bit tired in the second half and it was probably due to the fact they had two tougher games in the tournament," Marshburn said. "I got to sit my starters a little bit in the first two games. But tonight I don't think Jamal got a break and Josh didn't get much of one."
Indeed, Parker and Cabrera were the difference in the Monarchs winning the tournament championship game, something they wanted this season.
"I feel like this shows where we stand," Cabrera said. "We did what we needed to show we are the best team in the county."
