So start your search here where we believe you'll find the selection and price you're looking for. We're Burnsville Scion, and we're here to help you.
2013 Scion tC in Minneapolis metro: You know, Scion isn't big on bundles and packages and what not. Which is perfectly fine with us. We like that its vehicles roll off the factory line, streamlined and read to go. And it's no different for Scion's tC. This compact, five-seater is served up in one stacked trim, as well as a special Release Series 8.0 model that adds unique wheels, lowered suspension, an aerodynamic body kit, sport center-exit exhaust and paddle shifters + extra accents for the cabin. Base models of the Minneapolis metro area 2013 Scion tC, meanwhile, show up to the party with a 2.5-liter inline-four. This block mates with either a six-speed manual (which is standard) or the optional six-speed automatic. Together, this system serves up a very-impressive 180 horses, along with 173 lb.-ft. of torque. Comfort and convenience features on the Minneapolis metro area 2013 Scion tC menu are listed as AC, cruise, power everything . . . you get the idea.
2013 Scion xD in Minneapolis metro: For the 2013 model-year, Scion's xD receives a few new features, such as front seat side impact airbags. The cabin also gets updated with the manufacturer's available BeSpoke sound system. This cutting-edge technology on the Minneapolis metro area 2013 Scion xD is made up of a multi-media system that runs the BeSpoke iPhone app, providing owners with access to a number of services including: Facebook, Twitter, Yelp reviews, friend locator, POI search, routing map and Internet radio, while the large 5.8-inch LCD Thin Film Transistor (TFT) touch-screen display allows drivers to change controls with just a touch of a finger. This set-up is equipped with Bluetooth compatibility, as well, so owners can stream audio by pairing a compatible Bluetooth-capable phone or personal media device through the Scion's sound system. The exterior of the Minneapolis metro area 2013 Scion xD also receives a few highlights, like updated headlights and an available two-tone paint scheme.
2013 Scion FR-S in Minneapolis: The FR-S acronym, in case you were curious, denotes this little two-door coupe as a front-engine, rear-wheel sport vehicle. All-new for the 2013 model-year, the FR-S is just one more nice little package to come out of the Scion factory. Powering the 2013 Minneapolis Scion FR-S is the Japanese auto maker's 2.0-liter horizontally opposed "boxer" four-cylinder, which cranks out a very-impressive 200 horsepower while 151 lb.-ft. of torque gets sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual--though a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters is also on the menu. Zero-to-60-mph digits have been tallied on this bad boy at 6.6 seconds. Pretty good for a package that costs less than the rest. Exterior and interior bits are many and varied on the 2013 Minneapolis Scion FR-S, such as AC, power everything, cruise, a tilt-and-telescoping leather-wrapped steering wheel and Bluetooth. And that's just a sprinkling, kids!
2013 Scion iQ in Minneapolis: Of course, the best thing about the iQ (we think, anyway) is the fact that it's small in stature, yet big on space. Wait, what? Yup, you heard us. With all the mojo of the tiny smart cars of today, the 2013 Minneapolis Scion iQ boasts a pretty good bit of space on the inside. With seating for up to four passengers, this mini two-door receives a 1.3-liter four-cylinder, cranking out just under 100 horses and a little less in torque. Paired with a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT), the 2013 Minneapolis Scion iQ may be a bit slow off the line, but it does earn stellar gas mileage. Shod with either 17- or 18-inch wheels, wrapped in all-season tires, and offering conveniences such as AC, power accessories, keyless entry, a leather-wrapped tilt steering wheel and Bluetooth, what's not to love!

Black Ninja!
I'll be honest, I am a fan of the WWE. I feel they are a very smart organization who knows how to put on a decent family friendly show. I say decent because they do not focus on the older males in the family. Instead they are trying harder to reach the children and women, hence John Cena in the top seat. He is a very charismatic individual who has the exact same appeal that Hulk Hogan once had.

Prom Hairstyles – Tips by Camille La Vie for Prom Hair Updos
And to capture that sleek look with major hold, we recommend Bumble & Bumble Classic Hairspray to keep your do strictly in place during major party hours. To silkify and rid those pesky fly aways, TIGI Bed Head After the Party Smoothing Cream works its fabulous wonders. Another must-have straightening product with a healthy dose of sweet-smelling hibiscus is Frederic Fekkai's Advanced Silky Straight IRONLESS shampoo…and the plus to buying this baby – it contains essential proteins to heighten your hair's vitality. If you're going for a loose and wavy updo with a summery beach effect, Bumble and Bumble's Surf Spray will not disappoint (we have bottles stashed in our own offices in case we need a boost of beach wave). And with spring in full gear, the warmer climate may put a little damper on our hair and create those unwanted frizz and damaged strands. To fight nature's elements, we suggest scooping up a heavenly bottle of Moroccan Oil. It's not only smooths and provides the necessary nutrients for your hair, but also aids in hair regeneration too!

Some folks might stick to garden gnomes and an angel statue or two when it comes to backyard decor but some of us would rather decorate the yard with gargoyle figurines and majestic sculptures of dragons. Neither decorating theme is better than the other because it all comes down to a matter of personal preference. Gnomes tend to be cute while gargoyles are by nature, somewhat more intimidating. However, they are also wonderful, classic decor. Since gargoyles can be found on the ramparts of castles and some of the world's most majestic Gothic cathedrals, you could also say that those winged monsters are sort of like royalty when it comes to garden decor.
Given their special status, it's only logical that we offer dragon and gargoyle sculptures in bronze. This classic, beautiful metal alloy was a favored sculpting medium for the ancient Greeks and continues to be used by professional artists to this day. The color, texture, and durability of bronze can help turn a good quality statue into a masterpiece. Both of our bronze dragon and gargoyle sculptures fall into this category and make a prize addition to distinguished gardens of any home and business. The Asian Dragon with Power Orb is a fantastic, enchanting statue that can also be used as a fountain while the Winged Gargoyle of Naples makes for an exceptional welcoming sculpture for the backyard.
Find these and other fine bronze sculptures at Design Toscano.

starting over
On occasion, I like to stay up all night. Reading. Drinking tea. Playing solitaire online. Petting the cats. Doing laundry. It never starts out as intentional. Tonight I began watching "Shoot the Piano Player." I decided to watch it again with the commentary, which wasn't as annoying as I thought it might be. I ended up watching it all the way through a second time. More on that when I think what I want to say . . .
Okay--shoot, I look at the clock. How did it get to be 3 a.m.? I want to do another load of laundry. Then finish my Dorothy Sayers reread (I'm going through some of my classic murder mysteries as I have no $$$$ to buy new ones).
Okay, what the hell. I've made myself a piece of cinnamon toast, a cup of tea. Might as well read a bit more of Julio Cortazar--"Hopscotch." Okay, later still. How about another chapter of "The World Is Flat."
Geez, now it's 6 a.m. Why not try restarting the damned blog? So now I've decided to stay up and go to Common Ground to meditate at 8 a.m. when they open the doors. The question is, will I be able to meditate or will I just fall asleep?

PPP is commonly used to act as a data link layer protocol for connection over synchronous and asynchronous circuits, where it has largely superseded the older, non-standard Serial Line Internet Protocol (SLIP), and telephone company mandated standards (such as Link Access Protocol, Balanced (LAPB) in the X.25 protocol suite). PPP was designed to work with numerous network layer protocols, including Internet Protocol (IP), Novell's Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX), NBF and AppleTalk.
PPP is specified in RFC 1661.
PPP was designed somewhat after the original HDLC specifications. The designers of PPP included many additional features that had been seen only in various proprietary data-link protocols up to that time.
PPP is described by Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) RFC 1661.
Link Control Protocol (LCP) is an integral part of PPP, and defined in the same standard specification. LCP provides automatic configuration of the interfaces at each end (such as setting datagram size, escaped characters, and magic numbers) and for selecting optional authentication. The LCP protocol runs atop PPP (with PPP protocol number 0xC021) and therefore a basic PPP connection has to be established before LCP is able to configure it.
RFC 1994 describes Challenge-handshake authentication protocol (CHAP), preferred for establishing dial-up connections with ISPs. Although deprecated, Password authentication protocol (PAP) is often used.
After the link has been established, additional network (layer 3) configuration may take place. Most commonly, the Internet Protocol Control Protocol (IPCP) is available, although Internetwork Packet Exchange Control Protocol (IPXCP) and AppleTalk Control Protocol (ATCP) were once very popular.
PPP permits multiple network layer protocols to operate on the same communication link. For every network layer protocol used, a separate Network Control Protocol (NCP) is provided in order to encapsulate and negotiate options for the multiple network layer protocols.
For example, Internet Protocol (IP) uses the IP Control Protocol (IPCP), and Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) uses the Novell IPX Control Protocol (IPXCP). NCPs include fields containing standardized codes to indicate the network layer protocol type that PPP encapsulates.
PPP detects looped links using a feature involving magic numbers. When the node sends PPP LCP messages, these messages may include a magic number. If a line is looped, the node receives an LCP message with its own magic number, instead of getting a message with the peer's magic number.
|Number of bytes
|1 or 2
|setting of protocol in data field
|variable (0 or more)
|variable (0 or more)
|optional padding
The Protocol field indicates the kind of payload packet (e.g. LCP, NCP, IP, IPX, AppleTalk, etc.).
The Information field contains the PPP payload; it has a variable length with a negotiated maximum called the Maximum Transmission Unit. By default the maximum is 1500 octets. It might be padded on transmission; if the information for a particular protocol can be padded, that protocol must allow information to be distinguished from padding.
|Number of bytes
|indicates frame's begin or end
|broadcast address
|control byte
|1 or 2
|setting of protocol in information field
|variable (0 or more)
|variable (0 or more)
|optional padding
|2 (or 4)
|error check sum
The Flag field is present when PPP with HDLC-like framing is used.
The Address and Control fields always have the value hex FF (for "all stations") and hex 03 (for "unnumbered information"), and can be omitted whenever PPP LCP Address-and-Control-Field-Compression (ACFC) is negotiated.
The Frame Check Sequence (FCS) field is used to determine whether an individual frame has an error. It contains a checksum computed over the frame to provide basic protection against errors in transmission. This is a CRC code similar to the one used for other layer two protocol error protection schemes such as the one used in Ethernet. According to RFC 1662, it can be either 16 bits (2bytes) or 32 bits (4 bytes) in size (default is 16 bits - Polynomial x16 + x12 + x5 + 1).
The FCS is calculated over the Address, Control, Protocol, Information and Padding fields.
Although these are not standard applications, PPP is also used over broadband connections. RFC 2516 describes Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE), a method for transmitting PPP over Ethernet that is sometimes used with DSL. RFC 2364 describes Point-to-Point Protocol over ATM (PPPoA), a method for transmitting PPP over ATM Adaptation Layer 5 (AAL5), which is also sometimes used with DSL.
The phases of the Point to Point Protocol according to RFC 1661 are listed below:
MP's monotonically increasing sequence numbering (contiguous numbers are needed for all fragments of a packet) does not allow suspension of the sending of a sequence of fragments of one packet in order to send another packet. The obvious approach to providing more than one level of suspension with PPP Multilink is to run Multilink multiple times over one link. Multilink as it is defined provides no way for more than one instance to be active. Each class runs a separate copy of the mechanism defined i.e. uses a separate sequence number space and reassembly buffer. See RFC 2686...
Numerous documents on PPP have been published through the RFC process since July 1990, including various authentication, encryption, and compression methods, and the use of PPP in conjunction with other network protocols.
RFC 2615 is also used in Packet over SONET/SDH (PoS) transmissions.
PPTP is a form of PPP between two hosts via GRE. It is often used to set up a VPN, with optional encryption (MPPE) or compression (MPPC).

Faced with the threat of inclement weather, the Whalers hosted a double header at Mashashimuet Park on Wednesday. Starting early on our nation's birthday, the Whalers played two games against the Shelter Island Bucks, winning their first game 2-1, but dropping their second 4-3.
The Whalers had only four hits during the first game, which came sporadically from inning to inning. That's more than can be said about the Bucks, however, who were held scoreless until the seventh inning by a masterful pitching performance by Whalers newcomer Brandon McClane. McClane was perfect through five innings, hurling seven strikeouts and only one walk in six innings pitched.
The only two hits from the Bucks came in the top of the seventh inning. McClane was pulled from the game and did not pitch the seventh inning, and was instead replaced by Collin Dinges. Dinges finished off the Bucks, but allowed one run on two hits in a game that looked certain to be shutout.
Down one run with only one inning left in the truncated ball game, it seemed the Whalers' stellar pitching performance was all for nothing; but after a walk from Jake Kingsley and a well-placed sacrifice bunt by Keaton Flint, they had the tying run on second with two outs. John Hennessy was up at bat, and like most other Whalers during the game, he did little from behind the plate. Nevertheless, it was his two-run homerun over the right field fence that snagged the victory for the Whalers, in spectacular walk-off fashion.
Wednesday's second game was a different story from the beginning. After loading the bases with the first three batters, Whalers pitcher Jason Freeman gave up an RBI double to Geo Saba, scoring two runs. Saba would score himself later in the inning, bringing the first inning run total by the Bucks to four. Down four runs from the get-go, the Whalers knew they had to play catch up, but despite dishing out nine hits in the game, they were only able to score three runs.
Whalers infielder John Hennessey, fresh off a two-run homerun, was 2-for-3 on the day, with one run coming in the bottom of the third. Down two in the last inning, infielder Charlie Curl led off with a strong solo homerun, but it was too little too late. Grant Shambley reached base with a single to left field, but was the first out of a game-ending double play, hit by Dennis Mitchell.
This was the second double header of the week for the Whalers. On Saturday, June 30, the Whalers hosted the Riverhead Tomcats in a back-to-back showdown, but lost both games of the day 3-2 and 4-0. Jim Duff was on the mound for the first game, throwing a solid six innings, allowing two runs on seven hits, striking out four. The Whalers were held to six hits in the game, scoring their only two runs in a desperate seventh inning struggle to find the win.
In their second game against the Tomcats, the Whalers were held scoreless, slapping only five hits in the game. Whalers pitcher Will Marcal pitched a strong outing, striking out six, with only two earned runs. However, he allowed nine hits in his four inning outing, and after being down early in the game, the Whalers were unable to get any offense moving.
On Sunday, the Whalers faced the fifth place Southampton Breakers, and came away with a 7-6 win.
With a tough loss against the North Fork Ospreys last Thursday, the Whalers have continued to struggle this season, and are now six games back from the first place Riverhead Tomcats. Regardless, Whalers pitching and hitting are holding up well, bringing games close and competitive.
Scores came out to enjoy the double header, but there was more on the agenda than just baseball. Whalers General Manager Tom Gleeson invited local residents Joanne Lyles and Jim Theinert as ceremonial guests, where they simultaneously threw the first pitch in honor of their sons, Jordan Haerter and Joseph Theinert, respectively, both who died in the service of their country. The crowd welcomed the two, and offered their cheers to the memory of the two fallen servicemen.

A saw is a tool that uses a hard blade or wire with an abrasive edge to cut through softer materials. The cutting edge of a saw is either a serrated blade or an abrasive. A saw may be worked by hand, or powered by steam, water, electric or other power.
In a modern serrated saw, each tooth is bent to a precise angle called its "set". The set of the teeth is determined by the kind of cut the saw is intended to make. For example, a "rip saw" has a tooth set that is similar to the angle used on a chisel. The idea is to have the teeth rip or tear the material apart. Some teeth are usually splayed slightly to each side the blade, so that the cut width (kerf) is wider than the blade itself and the blade does not bind in the cut.
An abrasive saw uses an abrasive disc or band for cutting, rather than a serrated blade.
According to Chinese tradition, the saw was invented by Lu Ban. In Greek mythology, Perdix, the nephew of Daedalos, invented the saw. In fact, saws date back to prehistory, and likely evolved from Neolithic tools or bone tools. The early ancestors of man, in the Pleistocene era, likely first used a jaw bone of a bovid animal as a saw.
The pit saw is also known as a whipsaw.

"Social media has provided opportunities we never would have imagined five years ago," said Michele Nicholson, public information officer for the Okaloosa County Sheriff's Office.
Posts on social media sites are seen by more than just the people who subscribe to the Sheriff's Office's account, said Deputy Rich Aloy, public information officer for the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office. If they like a post, followers can share it with their friends and possibly start a chain reaction. That lets the Sheriff's Office share its own message to an enormous audience.
The posts can give the public information on local arrests, tips to avoid becoming a scam or crime victim, and warnings about emergency situations.
"We're trying to empower (the public) by giving them this information," said Wendy Ammons, public information officer for the Walton County Sheriff's Office.
The Santa Rosa sheriff's application for cell phones allows users get alerts on emergencies, look at outstanding warrants and even submit crime tips and give feedback.
"It's another tool in your toolbox," Aloy said.
Social media also is a two-way street, Nicholson said. The Sheriff's Office can speak the people, but also receive compliments, complaints or even crimes tips from followers.
"They're paying attention," Nicholson said. "They see what the crimes issues are. They engage with law enforcement as a neighbor."
Organizations can tell their own stories through social media, Nicholson said. A photo of new deputies or a story describing deputy training may not make it into traditional media, but can still reach the public through a Facebook post or a YouTube video.
"We see (social media) as an extremely important tool for not only sharing important information with the public, but also information that may be of human interest that shows deputies are real people that day in and day out do good things that otherwise the general public wouldn't have been aware of," Nicholson said.
The Okaloosa Sheriff's Office uses YouTube to show people a day in the life of a deputy, unedited news conferences, award ceremonies and more, she said. That way the public gets a chance to see their Sheriff's Office in action.
Walton County's Pinterest account allows followers to pin photos of everything from fugitives to community events.
Still, social media has its drawbacks, Ammons said. The pages aren't manned all day, every day because of a lack of manpower, which can delay a response to someone's comments or questions.
Also, there is no substitute for in-person interactions, Ammons said.
"We don't want to separate ourselves by using social media to communicate," Ammons said. "We still need to go out to the people."

As expected the CW network announced today that the DC Comics-based Arrow will be back for a second season. Arrow, which is a realistic take on DC's Green Arrow comic book character posted the CW's most watched premiere since 2009, and has consistently topped the network's schedule in overall ratings. With some strong guest stars slated for upcoming episodes including Doctor Who's Alex Kingston (see "Alex Kingston of 'Doctor Who' Joins 'Arrow'"), it is unlikely that Arrow will suffer many viewer defections during the second half of its debut season.

At the July 1 county meeting, commissioners took the first steps toward installing an improved soccer field at Donnie Wilson Sports Park.
Betty Sasnett, president of the Franklin County Youth Soccer League, launched the discussion with a request for help. "A lot of us have been driving to Gulf County for 10 or 15 years in order for our kids to play soccer," she said.
She said that when the youth soccer league was created in 2012, the county commission promised to patch up the baseball outfields for use as soccer fields. She said commissioners promised the soccer league a more permanent facility in 2013.
Sasnett said 103 children played in the soccer league last year and that the county now has several certified referees. She said the league now wants to begin hosting home games against Gulf County teams.
"This is a great opportunity for our kids to get ready to play soccer in high school," she said. "I know we had several kids who went to college on soccer scholarships this year. We're here today to see what your plans are to create our soccer fields."
Sasnett said parents would also like to see a basketball court installed at Wilson Field. She said a court had been discussed in 2012.
Commissioner Noah Lockley said he supported Sasnett's goals for improving sports fields.
Sasnett said she understood a grant to fund the development of soccer and basketball facilities had been denied.
Lockley moved that a portion of $350,000 reimbursed by the Florida Communities Trust for a land purchase be used to fund the field improvements.
"I would like to see us move forward on this," said Commissioner Smokey Parrish. "I don't know that we have the money to do the entire project."
Sasnett said the area designated for soccer at Wilson Field is very low-lying and needs to be upgraded.
Commissioner Cheryl Sanders asked how much upgrading the field would cost.
Assistant County Planner Mark Curenton said that in an application for a Florida Recreation Development Assistance Program (FRDAP) grant made in 2013, the estimated cost of a lighted soccer field at $103,000. The cost of constructing a lighted basketball court was an estimated $44,000. The FRDAP grant was not funded.
Lockley and Sanders said they felt the soccer field was a priority because it had been promised.
Commissioner Pinki Jackel said the commission had planned to use state funds. David Sasnett, who coaches soccer, said the source of funding was not mentioned when the field was promised.
Jackel said state funding was used to develop most county parks.
"Whether we have to pay for it, or the state has to pay for it, they're going to have it," Sanders said. "The priority right now is a soccer field."
She asked Clay Kennedy of Preble Rish, the county's engineering consultant, if a soccer field would cost $103,000. He said that it would be a tight budget for a lighted field.
"I would like for a cost to come before this board," said Sanders.
"This is another example of us not having the information in advance (of the meeting)," Jackel said
David Sasnett said he hoped there would not be more delays for the project. "We thought the numbers were already there. I'm not a commissioner. She (his wife) is not a commissioner," he said.
Sanders asked if anything could be done immediately to prepare for a soccer field. "Loads of dirt. It's very, very low," said Betty Sasnett.
Parrish asked if the work could be done by existing county crews.
"In the middle of the summer, it would be rough," Superintendent of Public Works Howard Nabors said. He said he could work on the project bit by bit.
Parrish said the project could not be finished by soccer season under those circumstances.
"We will make do as we have before," Betty Sasnett said. "We just want to get this project started."
Sanders said there was a second soccer field at Kendrick Park that could be used.
"It is full of stickers. It needs work," said David Sasnett.
Nikki Millender Director of Parks and Recreation said the $100,000 included lighting but the league was more concerned with immediate use of the field. She said she could get a breakdown on the cost of upgrading the field without lighting.
Commissioners directed Nabors and Millender to bring back estimates of the cost of upgrading the field to the next meeting.

Policy Papers
The 2014-2015 Ontario Budget, Building Opportunity, Securing Our Future is a continuation of the government's commitment to manage growth in spending and to balance the budget by 2017-18 while making strategic investments in key public services and helping to grow the economy. The government is moving forward with a 10-year plan for the economy focused on key investments in people, services, jobs, infrastructure, supporting growth and creating a good business environment.
Budget 2014 gives much attention and focus to jobs, economy, transportation and infrastructure, as well as issues connected to health care, mental health and addictions. Specifically, the government continues its commitment to fund Open Minds Healthy Minds: Ontario's 10-year Comprehensive Mental Health and Addictions Strategy to deliver mental health and addictions services to Ontarians in an integrated, coordinated and effective way.
Other issues also featured in the Budget include investments in affordable housing and homelessness prevention, indexing of minimum wage, and income security, employment and training opportunities for people with disabilities.
As part of its commitment to making every dollar count, the government acknowledged that it has acted on over 80 per cent of the recommendations of the Commission on the Reform of Ontario's Public Services (the Drummond Report). In this regard, the government continues to take strong but fair action to manage public-sector compensation and benefits costs.
Details of the 2014 Budget are available online.
Submission to the Ontario Ministry of Economic Development, Trade and Employment (April 2014)
One in three Canadians experience a mental health issue within their lifetime. Currently, more than 6.7 million people are living with a mental health condition in Canada. Mental health conditions occur across the life span, regardless of gender, race, sexual orientation or any other social location. More than 28% of people aged 20-29 experience a mental illness in a given year, and by the time people reach 40 years of age, 1 in 2 people in Canada will have had or have a mental illness. Mental health poses a significant cost to our economy. A recent study released by the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) reveals that the economic cost to Canada is at least $50 billion per year, which represents 2.8% of Canada's 2011 gross domestic product (GDP). Health care, social services and income support costs make up the largest proportions of these costs, and further, the cost to businesses equaled more than $6 billion in lost productivity (from absenteeism, pre-senteeism and turnover) in 2011. This study predicts that over the next 30 years, the total cost to the economy will have added up to more than $2.5 trillion. Given the mounting evidence, mental health has become an issue that can no longer be ignored.
Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) Ontario is pleased to contribute to the dialogue on raising the minimum wage in Ontario. CMHA Ontario is a non-profit, charitable organization committed to improving the lives of people with mental illnesses and their families, and to the promotion of mental health for all Ontarians. We anticipate that our recommendations will help inform the Minimum Wage Advisory Panel as it considers research and the formulation of the Chair's recommendations to the Ministry of Labour. This submission was developed in partnership with CMHA Brant, CMHA Hastings, CMHA Halton Region, CMHA Ottawa, CMHA Sault Ste. Marie, CMHA Sudbury/Manitoulin.
There are currently no provincial directions on delivering services to people with concurrent disorders, despite the fact that Ontario has focused much attention on integrating the mental health and addictions system.
The 2013 Ontario Budget, A Prosperous and Fair Ontario, builds on the government's commitment to eliminate the province's deficit by the 2017-18 fiscal year. The government's social policy focus includes continued investment in health care, education, the environment and significant transformation of social assistance.
A joint submission to the Ministry of Health and Long-term Care from the Canadian Mental Health Association, Ontario and Canadian Pensioners Concerned based upon the feedback of two forums on mental health issues facing older adults in Ontario. (May, 2012)

FORT WALTON BEACH — Monica Mammah loves planes.
She tried to consider other careers, but ultimately she knew her place was in the sky and set her sights on exploring it in college.
Then the Tampa resident came up to Fort Walton Beach for her best friend's graduation from Choctawhatchee High School and learned about the aviation institute housed there.
"I thought, 'Wow, this is exactly what I need,' " she said. "Fate brought me here."
After thinking it through, she decided to jumpstart her career and moved to Fort Walton Beach to live with her best friend's parents so she could enroll in the Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Aviation Institute at Choctaw.
"It's crazy that we have that level at high school," said the 16-year-old, who hopes to attend the Air Force Academy and become a pilot.
While Monica's story might be one of the more extreme since Okaloosa County started the aviation institute a decade ago, it illustrates exactly why one high school principal made it her mission to establish and then maintain it in spite of challenges through the years.
Today, the future direction of that program is uncertain and a principal and district are struggling with how best to keep it viable.
View a photo gallery of the institute. >>
Finding that spark
School board vice-chairwoman Cindy Frakes has always been a firm supporter of the aviation institutes at both Choctaw and Crestview high schools.
They're a perfect fit for an area with two Air Force bases and have helped boost some students from average to extraordinary, Frakes said.
One student, for example, entered into the program with a 1.5 GPA. Rather than fail or quit, the student continued with the program and recently completed a master's degree from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) in Daytona, she said.
"Sometimes, you just hit a spark," Frakes said.
But various concerns have caused them to consider contracting with new universities twice in the past three years.
The board ended its long-term relationship with ERAU Daytona in the summer of 2010 after they were unable to reach an agreement on costs.
At the time, they opted to go with another branch of the college called Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Worldwide, which had three local campuses: at Eglin Air Force Base, Hurlburt Field and in Crestview.
But it's been a rough three years, and the board is once again looking into other options after seeing declining enrollment and issues with students passing certification tests they used to soar through, Frakes said.
"The program just went away," Frakes said. "I don't know what happened to it."
Originally the board had considered going back into contract discussions with officials in Daytona, but during a recent board meeting they opted to give Superintendent Mary Beth Jackson leeway to negotiate a contract with the university she deems to be the best fit, whether that is one of the Embry-Riddle campuses or another one entirely, Frakes said.
View the contracts from 2004-07 »
View the contracts from 2008-2012 »
One thing is certain, though: The board is not ready to give up on the program that essentially started it all in Okaloosa County.
"To just throw it into the corner and have cobwebs grow on it is just wrong," Frakes said.
The beginning
The aviation institute at Choctaw is one of the oldest CHOICE programs in the district.
It was conceived by the newly appointed principal Cindy Gates after she started looking for a program to propel her students well into their futures by high school graduation.
After attending countless meetings, and finding out where the jobs were, she opted to go forward with an aerospace program.
"What I knew was it fit in our community," she said. "It all came back to aviation and engineering every time you turned around."
With the Okaloosa County School Board and then-Superintendent Don Gaetz behind her, she established a relationship with one of the best-known aviation schools: ERAU Daytona.
The program not only provided students an unheard-of opportunity to explore aviation in high school but also a chance to earn a semester's worth of college credit.
To help launch the program, Gates brought in a retired Navy commander named Leo Murphy and a former JROTC instructor at the high school named Rick Soria.
Soria, who didn't meet ERAU's rigorous standards for instructors, taught the high-school credit courses, while Murphy and other hand-selected instructors taught the college-level courses.
"We had them doing projects, building things," Soria, who now oversees the Okaloosa STEMM Center, said. "The kids were challenged ... and they loved it."
Among the students who entered the program that first year was a young man named Josh Daily, who had a passion for aviation.
"The first day I walked in there, I wanted to go to Embry-Riddle," he said. "I wanted to be in the program."
It wasn't easy, by any means, he said, but he never wavered because he knew the work was his ticket into the sky.
"When you're solving the problem and seeing its application, it's all a little bit different," he said.
By the time he graduated, he'd earned as many college credits as promised and was able to graduate from ERAU Daytona in three years.
He's now working for the Federal Aviation Administration.
A new era
When Ron Garriga walked into Choctaw in August 2010, the aviation program had classrooms and equipment but no personnel. And that was a big problem since school was already in session and both students and parents had expectations about the educational opportunities they would receive.
It would take four weeks to pull together a new program and staff. In the interim, Garriga,the director of academic support for ERAU Worldwide in Fort Walton Beach, taught all the classes. Still, students said they didn't notice a big difference.
"The quality certainly did not change," said Derek Watson, who is now a senior and considering attending ERAU Daytona next fall.
Fast-forward three years and the program might not have the enrollment it had in the past, but that's been deliberate to a point, according to current director Ken Feidler.
They've raised the GPA requirements compared to the Daytona model and always require two teacher recommendations for enrollment.
"I'd rather have smaller numbers and a quality classroom environment," he said.
Students with a GPA of 2.8 or higher can apply to the program. People with lower GPAs might be able to get waivers on a case-by-case basis by proving with other data, such as FCAT scores, that they're capable of succeeding in the college courses, Feidler said.
"We don't want to put someone in these classes that isn't ready for these classes," Garriga added.
Another challenge has been the lack of interest in the field since careers as a pilot became less lucrative. The goal now, Feidler said, is to raise awareness that aviation is about more than just flying.
Neither Garriga nor Feidler denied that the program has gone through rough patches in the past few years, but they're hopeful the board will give them another opportunity.
"We want them to know we have our act together, we have our curriculum together," Garriga said. "They just need to trust us that we know what we're doing."

By the second semester of next school year, for example, they plan to offer a course in unmanned aerial vehicles in light of an expected local job trend.
"We've got a plan for the next year," Feidler said. "We're buying the books."
A future with questions
The only certainty right now is that the aviation institutes will not disappear from Okaloosa County.
Jackson is currently drawing up a contract to bring before the board. Her recommendation should appear in another month or so.
She said she couldn't provide details but that "all the options are on the table."
The bottom line for her is that the program is still feeding a job need in the area, so it needs to grow.
"If we see a demand, then we know that it is a program we can support," she said.
