Schools reflect student diversity
Look in a mirror. You'll see your reflection. Then look out a window. You will see part of the world.
Jonathan Zur, president of the Virginia Center for Inclusive Communities (VCIC) often uses a mirror-window activity to help teach Henrico County educators how to be more inclusive across race, gender and class.
The activity helps educators analyze how students see themselves, how students see the world, and how those two worlds intersect in their schools.
Some students see their images reflected in history books in school, on bulletin boards and in student leadership roles. Others see themselves reflected only in token ways. In the latter cases, VCIC trainers show teachers ways to address the disparities.
"We've seen some schools be able to be effective through using that [mirror-window] framework and broader workshops ... to change some of the policies and practices throughout their buildings," Zur said.
VCIC and Henrico County schools have worked together for about eight years.The training is part of the district's efforts to examine the culture at each school and to ensure that all students feel welcome and included, said Chris Corallo, the district's executive director of organizational development, quality and innovation.
Making each student feel valued regardless of race or ethnic background has become more important as the racial demographics of Henrico County schools have changed in the last few years.
In the 2004-2005 school year, 53.2 percent of the district's student population was white and 46.7 percent was non-white, according to statistics provided by the district. In the 2011-2012 school year, 45 percent are white and 55 percent are non-white, with the largest increases in growth being among Asian and Hispanic students.
As minority student populations increase, school officials have developed programs that focus on equity across race, class, and ability status.
For instance, middle schools participate in VCIC's annual Prejudice Awareness Summit. Teams of eight students from schools spend a day together and then develop plans about how to share the message of inclusion and respect with their peers.
Linda Thompson, project director for the district's Learning Leaders grant, works closely with VCIC on the summit and other projects.
"We have greatly appreciated our work with the [VCIC] and believe that their voices in training have been instrumental in helping us … have honest conversations about diversity and cultural differences in our schools," Thompson said.
School leaders also develop their own activities to create an inclusive culture. For instance last month, Ward Elementary School held International Day for its approximately 500 students and their parents. Principal David Burgess said the event, which featured culture and food from a variety of countries, was to celebrate the schools's diverse population.
However, as the student population changes in Henrico County, officials are tracking an achievement gap.
White students and Asian students perform at higher levels on most academic measures than do African American students, Hispanic students, and students with disabilities, according to the Henrico County school's website.
Similar gaps are occurring in other school districts in Virginia and elsewhere.
Zur said the training that VCIC has done with Henrico educators can be helpful as the district works to close the gap.
"If students feel a sense of belonging in their school, they are more likely to show up, they are more likely to do their homework, they are more likely to raise their hands, they are more likely to care about the quality of their work," Zur said. "So this is not just a touchy-feely, squishy area of work. This is about a school's success."
Corallo said that although the district has been working to close the achievement gap, more work is needed.
The community helped the district identify what Corallo called "barriers to progress." Earlier this month, the district met with community representatives to discuss those barriers and identify priorities. Those priorities will be used to help the district develop the next steps for continuing to close the gap.
Meanwhile, Zur and the VCIC will keep working with Henrico teachers to help them to better connect with and to understand their increasingly diverse students and their parents.
Zur said he expects ongoing conversations about inclusion in area schools but he anticipates the focus of those conversations to change over time.
"As our immigrant population grows in Central Virginia that adds an opportunity for some new conversation and new learning," he said. "The links between race and class and ability grouping are something our schools really need to look at… so there are emergent conversations that [are needed and] that will look different five, ten, fifteen years from now."

She describes how she was run over three times by the woman authorities say is pregnant and was intoxicated at the time. It happened here in the Quail Ridge neighborhood on Halloween. Jennifer Rowton said she and dozens of parents watched as 27-year-old Twila Watson crashed her vehicle into a tree then continued to race the streets, narrowly missing children.
Many are calling Rowton a hero for doing what many just couldn't approaching Waton's vehicle which she described as "reeking of alcohol." She then tried to get Watson to calm down and attempted to remove the keys from the vehicle without her knowing.
"I go up to her door, I notice she has two little kids in the car and I look at her and you can smell alcohol coming out of the car." She said Watson was panicked so she tried to calm her down distract her enough to reach into the car and put it in park. "That's when she stomped the gas petal and my arm was in her car.
Rowton turned the wheel to stop the car from hitting children but got trapped under it. Her son-in-law tried to help but was dragged over a hill where Rowton could only listen from there. "All i can see is this car coming straight for me and I'm thinking my kids are fixing to watch me die because I can't move. I coldn't get out of the street.
A man drove a trailer in between the two, she says saving her life, "It took four people to get her to the ground and handcuffed. She's screaming the whole time she didn't care if she killed us all."
"I would do it again tomorrow because I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt, especially to the children. I wouldn't even think about it, I would do it again."
"But I'm very angry that I have to learn to walk again," adds Rowton. "I'm missing my children's life. They can't go home. My son has senior night and she's walking free so, yeah, I'm a little angry now."
Authorities confirm the suspect, Watson, posted bail on a $17,000 bond the next day and is now free at home. We knocked on Watson's door and heard her inside, however the man who answered declined an interview based on their attorney's recommendation.

A person in protective clothing climbed out of an ambulance at an Atlanta hospital where a U.S. doctor infected with Ebola was being brought for treatment.
Dobbins Air Reserve Base spokesman Lt. Col. James Wilson says the patient arrived Saturday at the base. A Grady hospital ambulance with red markings was flanked by a few SUVs and police car en route to Emory University Hospital about 15 miles from the base.
Samaritan's Purse missionary group tells The Associated Press that Dr. Kent Brantly is the patient.
He worked at a hospital in Liberia that treats Ebola patients.
He and another aid worker will be treated at a special isolation unit at Emory University Hospital.
A private jet is being used that is outfitted with a special, portable tent designed to transport patients with highly infectious diseases.

Missouri Senior
40: 4.60e
He does a good job coming up and shows willingness in run support. Can wrap up and make the stop on the edge at the point of attack. Shows some ability to work in the box as well as blitz off the corner. Will deliver a hit on the receiver over the middle. Does a decent job in centerfield when he's able to keep things in front of him. Shows decent ball skills, able to jump a route on the outside.
Doesn't have great size or speed. Not very big vs. the run and can miss some stops because of it. Will also take some bad angles and get stuck in traffic. Doesn't have the ideal range and awareness to make many plays in coverage.
Simmons is a capable receiver that shows enough skill in all areas to compete at the next level. But nothing really stands out about him. He was a productive player for his two years at Missouri, but had his senior year marred by injuries and disciplinary problems. He started as a junior at FS, recording 73 tackles, 3 for loss, 1 INT, 2 PBUs, 2 forced fumbles, and a recovery after two-year career at Hutchinson JC. As a senior, he tore his meniscus in the season opener, but then was suspended after recovering for what are rumored to be alcohol-related issues. And then when he came back after a few more games, he was suspended again for undisclosed disciplinary reasons. He still manged to be productive in 6 games (2 starts) with 43 tackles, 0.5 for loss, 2 picks, and 1 fumble recovery. He also returned kicks, mainly as a junior, but averaged 22.4 yards on 39 career returns.
Simmons if he can show the discipline needed to work on his game, can stick in the pros as a reserve safety. He's a good college safety, not great. He's not a big-time playmaker, but can contribute vs. the run and in coverage and is not prone to making a ton of mistakes on the field. If he can produce on special teams, there's no reason to think he can be a capable backup free safety in the league for several years. And if he gets comfortable in a system, he can be a decent stopgap starter for a few games in the case of injuries. He'll never be a long-term option to start, but with time and development he should be able to add quality depth to most NFL rosters.
Simmons can push for time in the Falcons secondary. He's probably not a great candidate to push Schillinger as the backup free safety, but can at least compete for a practice squad spot and then hope that a year or two down the road he'll have improved enough to make a roster spot. He can stick in Atlanta if he shines on special teams. If not, then he's just a body.
Simmons is good enough to get looks in the seventh round, but the off-field issues and lack of long-term upside mean he's a better value as an undrafted free agent.

It's raining Carrs/Safeway gift cards at the Great Alaska Shootout this week at Sullivan Arena.
An eight-foot by eight-foot blimp that looks like a giant basketball is carrying gift cards ranging from $5 to $100 and making random drops during half-time of some of the basketball games.
"Somebody is getting lucky," said Nico Fearn, an operations coordinator with SportsOne, a public relations company behind much of the Shootout marketing.
Fearn, 23, has only been with the Portland, Ore., company for a couple of months. On the Thursday prior to the Shootout, the custom-made orange blimp with a Carrs/Safeway logo was delivered to his office in Portland.
"It was given to me as the most special piece of our marketing for this event," Fearn said. "They made this for this event."
The problem was, Fearn's test flight didn't go so well.
"Basketballs aren't supposed to fly," he said.
So, before he made his first trip to Alaska, he made some calls around Anchorage to see if anyone here knew how to fly a remote control basketball.
A call to a local hobby shop put him in touch with Mike Podolak, a 37-year-old electrical project manager whose primary hobby is flying remote control airplanes.
"I call this guy our savior," Fearn said.
Podolak has years of experience flying all sorts of remote control aircraft and is even the vice president of a local non-profit organization called Frontier Fun Flyers.
"We're just a fun bunch of RC nerds," he said.
Flying a basketball turned out to be a little tougher than Podolak imagined, but he manages to navigate the turbulent airspace of Sullivan Arena.
"It's kind of like driving a barge up a river," Podolak said. "There are subtle currents in here."
Look at some of the flags and banners hanging in Sullivan Arena and their movement is evidence of the currents Podolak talked about. He uses a standard remote control device with two thumb sticks. The right stick turns the blimp left and right. The left stick is used for forward propulsion and the dropping of the gift cards, which has turned out to be one of the trickiest parts of the operation.
A wire at the bottom of the blimp holds a handful of gift cards and the slightest sideways movement of the left thumb stick is enough to release two or three.
From his perch on the Mezzanine, Podolak can't be certain how many cards he drops at one time, but he tries to spread them out as much as he can across the arena.
The blimp is scheduled for flights during halftime of Saturday's 2 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. games. For those who aren't lucky enough to be under the blimp at the right time, Fearn is also walking around and handing out gift cards to other lucky fans.
The blimp has been a big hit this week, especially with kids, many of which run around chasing the blimp.
"It's been something that started as our question mark and it's turned into one of our biggest successes," Fearn said.

Dove Scouting 2010
Can I catch bait fish in one lake and use them another?
No. Bait fish caught in one department-managed water may not be transported to and used in another department-managed water. It is also illegal to release fish caught in public water unless caught in that water. Exotic species such as Asian carp and white perch are serious threats to our native fish populations and angling traditions, and moving bait fish may introduce these dangerous exotics into new waters. For more information, refer to the Aquatic Nuisance Species page.

Truman Capote's first novel is a story of almost supernatural intensity and inventiveness, an audacious foray into the mind of a sensitive boy as he seeks out the grown-up enigmas of love and death in the ghostly landscape of the deep South.At the age of twelve, Joel Knox is summoned to meet the father who abandoned him at birth. But when Joel arrives at the decaying mansion in Skully's Landing, his father is nowhere in sight. What he finds instead is a sullen stepmother who delights in killing birds; an uncle with the face—and heart—of a debauched child; and a fearsome little girl named Idabel who may offer him the closest thing he has ever known to love.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 10/29/12
No bold predictions, no promises of reaching the playoffs. There is instead a quiet sense of optimism around the Toronto Raptors heading into the season. A year after general manager Bryan Colangelo preached patience with a young, building team that was all about gaining experience, the Raptors made several key moves in the offseason in hopes of significantly improving the team. Colangelo added three potential starters to the roster in point guard Kyle Lowry, Lithuanian center Jonas Valanciunas and athletic swingman Landry Fields, while losing Jerryd Bayless and James Johnson. ''There's that feeling there could be something special about this group, but time will tell,'' Colangelo said. The Raptors, who open the season at home Wednesday against Indiana, finished 23-43 last year in a lockout-shortened season with low expectations. Few expect them to improve all that much this year - something second-year coach Dwane Casey said may work in his young squad's favor. ''With that lac...

Ventura County Mock Trial finalists wait to learn winner
Teams from La Reina, Santa Susana and Newbury Park high schools will learn Friday night which one of them is the winner of this year's Ventura County Mock Trial competition.
Two Newbury teams and one each from La Reina and Santa Susana squared off Thursday in the competition's final rounds. The winner will be announced in a ceremony starting at 6 p.m. Friday at the Oxnard Performing Arts Center, 800 Hobson Way.
The bar is raised each year at the Ventura County Mock Trial competition, according to Ventura County Superior Court Judge Kent Kellegrew, who coordinates the legal professionals for the contest.
Kellegrew said he continues to be amazed at the quality of work students do to prepare for the contest, in which students from 25 high school schools argue the same case in front of real judges and their performances are scored by practicing attorneys.
"These students are extraordinarily conscientious. They are prepared and focused," he said. "Some of these students would make fine attorneys."
This year's case is the trial of fictional high school student Rae Concha, who is accused of two felonies involving the illegal sale of the drug Adderall and the death of a student from taking the drug.
Names of principals in the case are unclear in gender, so the teams can assign anyone to any role. Each school team has a contingent of attorneys who argue pretrial motions or act as prosecuting or defense attorneys. Other team members act the roles of the defendants, witnesses, police officers and experts, such as doctors.
Each team is given the case to study and required to create arguments to either prosecute or defend.
Before the final round Thursday at the Ventura County Hall of Justice in Ventura, members of the four finalist teams waited to find out where they were ranked. Team members from Simi Valley's Santa Susana High School, which lost by a point last year to the reigning champions at La Reina High School, said they were prepared to make a run at the crown this year.
"We've come so close in the past," said Tristan Hartwell, 17, who played the Santa Susana pretrial attorney. "This year, we have a really good team. The veterans are bringing their knowledge of La Reina and we have a lot of new talent."
Santa Susana's Jonathan Rockwood, 18, who was portraying the witness police officer Robin Doherty, said this year's scenario seems better balanced than in past years.
"This case is fairly balanced. In the past, they give the good stuff to either the prosecution or the defense," Rockwood said. "This year, both are weak."
Members of the La Reina team held hands as they waited for the final standings, jumping for joy as they were matched against the Santa Susana Troubadours. They said they didn't feel any extra pressure as defending champions.
"Expectations may be higher, but we answer to ourselves. We know we will do the best we can and we will try our hardest," said Camilah Hamideh, 17, a co-captain with Ryanne Bamieh, 17, and Nisha Srinivasa, 17.
La Reina and Santa Susana faced off in front of Steven Z. Perren, a justice in the 2nd District, Division 6 of the California Courts of Appeal.
During the pretrial motion to dismiss the evidence uncovered when Doherty climbed on a tire to shine a flashlight through the front window of the vehicle of the defendant, Perren peppered prosecution and defense attorneys with questions.
Neither Hartwell from Santa Susana nor Edie Sussman, the pretrial attorney for La Reina, missed a beat as they cited various legal precedents to support their arguments.
In the courtroom where Mickye Coyle from the Ventura County District Attorney's Office presided, the same arguments were being made by the Newbury Park High School Panthers, who were facing off against the Newbury Park High School Gold team.
In both cases, the presiding judge ruled that once the police officer stepped on the tire to look in the front window of the defendant's vehicle, the Fourth Amendment had been violated.
Roger Rice, from the Ventura County Office of Education, which sponsors the contest, explained that during the final rounds, judges ask more questions and are more challenging so the panel of attorneys will have enough information to rate a winner.

What to expect:
This 100-acre park in southern Indiana, near the Kentucky border, has been family-owned since it opened in 1946. Back then it was known as Santa Claus Land, taking its cue from the small town in which it's located: Santa Claus, Indiana, whose post office each year receives thousands of letters mailed to Santa from children around the country.
Now called Holiday World, with an expanded theme that includes the Fourth of July and Halloween, the park has managed to avoid takeover by the mega-corporations that have been gobbling up theme and amusement parks right and left. That's good news for families looking for a reasonably priced park that prides itself on a clean, friendly, relaxed atmosphere.
Holiday World specializes in rides and attractions for families to enjoy together. So while two of its wooden roller coasters are ranked among the world's best, it's not overrun by thrill-seeking teens. Lines are usually comparatively short. One fee admits you to both Holiday World and Splashin' Safari, an adjacent water park. And there's more: Soft drinks, including soda, lemonade, fruit punch, iced tea, and ice water, are free all day. Combine that with free parking, and a family can save big bucks.
There's plenty to captivate the 2- to 4-year-old set here, from kiddie rides to visits with Santa Claus. They'll find reindeer-themed airplane rides, a train that chugs through Mother Goose Land (where they'll hear the stories of Little Bo Peep and Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary), kid-sized canoes, a seahorse-go-round, and yet another a mini merry-go-round. In Holidog's Fun Town, an interactive area, 4-year-olds can play with their parents at the three-story Treehouse, billed as the country's largest "family play super-structure." It contains slides, a net climb, a web crawl, bridges, and a periscope. Two- and 3-year-olds may feel more comfortable on Just for Pups, a smaller version of the Treehouse. Children will also enjoy taking off their shoes and socks and getting a little wet at Fun Town's Magic Waters, where water squirts out of the ground in surprising patterns. If they like getting wet, they can head to the Splashin' Safari water park, where the Crocodile Isle, Butterfly Bay, and Jungle Jet children's areas await little visitors. The Santa's Storytime and Holidog Sing-Along shows are best suited for the youngest children.
Food concessions (drinks are free), changing stations, stroller and wagon rentals, picnic grounds (just outside the gate). Inner tubes and sunscreen are free at Splashin' Safari. If you're planning an overnight stay, motels (some with a Christmas theme) are nearby, as is Lake Rudolph Campground and RV Resort (877/ 478-3657), which has tent sites, cabins, RV rentals, full RV hookups, two swimming pools and playgrounds, a game room, miniature golf, boat rentals, fishing, and a country store. Shuttle service to the park is included.
- Some rides in both parks have height restrictions, either minimum or maximum. For most kiddie rides, children can't be taller than 54 inches.
- If you plan to go to the water park, bring swimsuits, towels, and water shoes to protect feet.
- No outside food is permitted in the park, but you can visit the picnic grounds just outside the gate.
- If you live in the area, consider buying a season pass. You can also buy discounted advance tickets online. See Holiday World's website for details.
Holiday World and Splashin' Safari are open from early May to early October, with varying hours. Go on weekdays in June for the lightest crowds; the heaviest are on Saturdays from June through August.
Getting there:
Holiday World & Splashin' Safari are located at the junction of Highways 162 and 245 in Santa Claus, Indiana. From Evansville, Indiana, take I-64 east to Exit 63, then take Highway 162 south for seven miles to Highway 245; the drive is about 45 minutes. From Louisville, take I-64 west to Exit 63, then take Highway 162 south for seven miles and turn west onto Highway 245; the drive is about one hour.
For rates, hours, and other information visit the Holiday World website or call (877) 463-2645 or (812) 937-4401.

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Jeremy Hill scored his third touchdown with 15 seconds left to lift No. 8 LSU to a 41-35 victory over relentless but mistake-prone Mississippi on Saturday in a classic meeting between the rivals. The game included seven turnovers, numerous momentum swings and long touchdowns, perhaps none better than Odell Beckham Jr.'s 89-yard punt return for a score that evoked memories of Billy Cannon's famous return against the same team, along the same sideline, for the same yardage back in 1959. Beckaham's return tied the game at 35, but LSU (9-2, 5-2 Southeastern Conference) still needed a pair of clutch sacks by Anthony Johnson and Lavar Edwards to drive Ole Miss out of routine field goal range later in the fourth quarter, setting up the winning drive. Ole Miss quarterback Bo Wallace passed for 310 yards and two TDs and ran for two scores, but also was intercepted three times.

SAN DIEGO, May 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cadence Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: CADX), a biopharmaceutical company focused on acquiring, in-licensing, developing and commercializing proprietary products principally for use in the hospital setting, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012.
During the first quarter of 2012, Cadence reported net product revenue of $8.0 million, an increase of $7.6 million as compared to the first quarter of 2011. As compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2011, net product revenue for the first quarter of 2012 increased $2.1 million, or 36%, from $5.9 million.
As of March 31, 2012, approximately 2,700 unique accounts had ordered OFIRMEV® (acetaminophen) injection, an increase of approximately 20% quarter-over-quarter, and an estimated 330,000 to 410,000 patients were treated with OFIRMEV in just the first three months of 2012.
"Demand for OFIRMEV continued to grow at a strong pace in the first quarter, and I am encouraged by the underlying trends. Our customer base has increased and our customers made larger orders of the product as compared to the previous quarter," said Ted Schroeder, President and CEO of Cadence. "Our team is focused on expanding on these positive trends and driving continued adoption and revenue growth of OFIRMEV."
Cadence believes that returns related to the voluntary recall of a single lot of OFIRMEV that was announced in February 2012 have been substantially completed. While some customers experienced a short-term supply delay as a result of the temporary suspension of shipments from the supplier of the recalled lot, the company was able to accelerate the delivery of product from another supplier and quickly resumed normal shipments.
Financial ResultsNet product revenue was $8.0 million for the three months ended

Kyle Jean scored his third goal of the season. He now has six points (3g, 3a) in four games. Christian Thomas and Chad Kolarik scored their first goals of the season. Kris Newbury had two assists which gives him seven points (3g, 4a) in four games this season. Chris Kreider and J.T. Miller have yet to score this year. Matt Gilroy had five shots on goal.

Video highlights... ...as I said after the first game, I'm not going to get caught up in wins and losses with the Whale because in the grand scheme of things (ie developing prospects) it doesn't matter, but a victory would be nice. ...i'd start worrying about Kreider's lack of scoring, but he's shooting the puck on net (12 SOG this season) s...

Great place to stay within about a 10 minute walk of Grand Case restaurant row. Hotel is gated and beaches are private so you won't get bothered by locals trying to sell you stuff like on other Caribbean islands. We were upgraded from a Garden Studio to a 1 Bedroom Partial Ocean View room. It was a surprise to us at check-in. Then again, it was the low season. We enjoyed our stay and the Sunset Café is on the grounds so no need to go far for a meal or drinks if you don't want. Bring cash to tip since you can't tip on your credit cards on the French side. Plenty of water sports available at the resort so read the Grand Case Beach Club (GCBC) website for what is available both free and paid. Our room had 1 110V outlet in the bathroom and the rest were 220V outlets. I had a power converter with me and it came in handy to charge the iPad/phone by the bed. Room had a key safe in the closet so we had a place to store our valuables."
A luxurious alternative for families who want to play in gentle waves and soft sand and avoid the kids resort atmosphere. For those with very little ones the undertow can be avoided by walking a few hundred yards down the beach. Kitchen was well equipped with a very large fridge. Views spectacular."
Love this place. Great atmosphere. Great view, great beach and location."
Bright pleasant rooms, with a colonial feel. The staff was very helpful, and breakfast had just the right amount of variety for anyone. The small private beach was just the perfect cure for our winter blues."
Beautiful view of the marina. Nice staff. Clean room. Unexpected neighborhood for this hotel but it is actually quite safe. Walk 2 mn to Marigot center with very exclusive shops and nice restaurants on the marina. Bonus:Bus stop right in front of the gate and takes you in front of the airport for $1.50. Don't bother with a taxi."
We didn't encounter any staff member that wasn't pleasant and ready to assist. Only one exception. A manager type named Perez was rude to my wife and I. You know it's not what you say, but how you say it. Please send him to manager training soon. We loved Ruell, Francesca, Joann, and Peter."
Due to a booking error ( not their's) our room was not available when we arrived and they were full. They found us terrific accommodations nearby. The staff was wonderful the room was great and the views were incredible."
Nice, large, clean room, and a good place to just relax. It's close to nothing though. Deals available through hotel booking sites, but you don't get the free breakfast they advertise."
Stayed from 12/29/14 through 1/7/15...hotel was clean the people were nice and friendly and the food at their restaurant was wonderful! Internet was spotty and only in the lobby, and the cable TV was almost non-existent (only 6 channels, 4 french and one soccer and one English CNN)...dont go if you expect to have internet service and good TV but otherwise a wonderful place to get away..."

I am a student at hocking county community college. and was told the rate for
Inclement Weather Conditions was $35.00 when I get to the hotel I was told the rate was $89.00
because the manager was not there.( and the desk clerk being very rude.) why would the manager have to be there if that is the rate then that should be the rate no matter who checks you in. there were others there from the college that got the $35.00 rate. so why was I not entittled to the same. and then have to deal with the manager's daughter that does not know anything about customer service working the front desk. Very, very very RUDE my point is there should be no Discrimination on who gets the rate and who dosen't when they have a school I.D.

text: Almost 16 years old, brand new to this site! Star wars has been my life since I was like 5, and I always caught interest in Boba Fett, being the mysterious bounty hunter you see only a few times in 3 movies. I've always crafted helmets, suits, and various costumes anything that I found really cool, but I decided to build a much harder, more realistic helmet that took me about a year off and on! I decided on the ESB design, because its my favorite movie out of the 3 and I just love the battle damage! lemme know what you think! Stoked about finally letting everybody on here see my work so far. Very proud of it. I'd love any advice or tips on anything on it that could make it better, and I'll answer any questions about it!
