Correction: The Peoples Palace was not a theatre, but a hotel/boarding-house for accomodation. (The Palace Theatre at 20 Bourke Street was a completely separate affair). Cheers.
Barry Marshall Posted on 03 Jan 2011 11:19 PM
The People's Palace was where my dad (Bob d.o.b. 4/01/1931) and his family stayed on a trip by train from Cunderdin Western Australia to celebrate his great great grandmother's 101st birthday in 1940. They had won 3000 pounds in the lottery and it was a turning point for the family - after that they were well-off but the war intervened and so the family was separated in various ways for a few years. But at least they had a famous time at the Melbourne cup taht year when Old Rowley won at 100:1 odds!

My new wife and I spent a week of our honeymoon in this hotel beginning 16th May, 1965. Our first trip overseas. We so enjoyed Sydney that we stayed in Australia until 1971, and in the years had two Australian children.
Terry Houguet-Pincham Posted on 16 May 2014 11:31 AM
As a child i lived in Narrabri and on many occasions needed to go to Sydney to see Dr.'s and we would always stay at the PP, i have very fond memories of the hotel.
Jonathan J. Priest Posted on 17 Jun 2014 6:28 PM
My father stayed there between boat journeys , from Wellington through Sydney and then on by ship to Singapore. That was in 1929. He was travelling with his close friend and they were going to get work in Malaya. It was obviously a cheap place to stay and set up for single travellers.

My father and mother arrived in Australia in 1966 and we stayed at the People's Palace in Pitt Street before we got our bearings and moved to the Northern Beaches of Sydney to live and have done so for more than 40 years. Fond memories of teh way Australia was!!
Christa from Germany Posted on 05 Sep 2014 5:00 PM
My friend and I stayed at the Sydney Peoples Palace in November 1978 for 5 nights. We didnt know, that we checked in in a salvation-army Hotel. I still have the "rules" of the former Manager, Mayor Skinner, who did forbid "rubbish" magazines and alcohol in the rooms. We enjoyed the stay very much, but hated the loudspeaker, which woke us up every morning at 7.00am with ist "breakfast is ready".
Natalie Rowles Posted on 14 Sep 2014 12:01 AM
My mother was a gypsy and moved all the time form the south coast to sydney to central coast etc in between times of moving we often stayed at the peoples palace catching a taxi from central station. I never ever knew it was a salvation army run. This would of been in the late 1970s to mid 1980s, I always loved the thought of being in the CBD. Great memories.

I stayed at the Peoples Palace, first time, in 1967. Cheap and clean, but old. No alcohol in the rooms, the bottom floor was for women only, the doorman kept an eye on that. Fond memories.

Comments about Mens Saucony Type A6 Racing Shoe:
The A6 is light, low profile for going fast, and is comfortable with or without socks. A more foot-shaped toe box and a 0mm offset are two things I'd prefer to achieve a more natural running experience. Overall, a very good product nonetheless. A very good looking shoe too.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

We are living today in the Age of Information. Various technological advancements in information technology and electronics have given us the power to store, process, and communicate in ways never thought possible before. The advent of the Internet has started to connect the world and we can now talk to another person at the other side of the world without having to leave the comfort of our own homes.
One of the many aspects of our daily lives that have been affected by all these developments in communication is the way to which we entertain and distract ourselves from the troubles and mundaneness of the real world is by playing videogames. Most of those belonging to the current generation of youth and young adults have been exposed to videogames early in life. In fact, a lot of the youth of the last couple of decades fondly remember the good memories they have had playing the old games of their childhood years. A lot has\
The videogame industry has now grown a lot and has successfully become a multi-billion dollar industry that has hooked countless hordes of gamers worldwide. The playing of videogames has become so serious that there are now innumerable e-sports and gaming tournaments and competitions that are regularly being held in many different parts of the world. Among the most popular and spectated arenas for these competitions is the hugely popular Multiplayer Online Battle Arena or MOBA game genre.
The genre of Multiplayer Online battle Arena or MOBA games broke through the world of gaming with the breakthrough success of Defense of the Ancients or DotA by Icefrog. Since then, many games have incorporated the effective framework and formula of DotA. Nowadays, it is League of Legends or LoL by Riot Games that is at the lead of this genre. It is definitely one of the great games of our times but we must also admit to its imperfection.
League of Legends is host to terrible problem known far and wide as elo hell. This is the terrible state of being stuck in the lower ranks of League and being forced to go through all the bad and terrible games here. These bad games are caused by the many trolls and assholes that run rampant in these divisions and the only escape is offered by the upper tiers of League. The required effort in order to reach them is however very difficult for any average person. This is where the service of boost elo lol can help gamers.

- Study on chemical equilibrium in nucleus-nucleus collisions at relativistic energies (2004)
- We present a detailed study of chemical freeze-out in nucleus-nucleus collisions at beam energies of 11.6, 30, 40, 80 and 158A GeV. By analyzing hadronic multiplicities within the statistical hadronization approach, we have studied the chemical equilibration of the system as a function of center of mass energy and of the parameters of the source. Additionally, we have tested and compared different versions of the statistical model, with special emphasis on possible explanations of the observed strangeness hadronic phase space under-saturation.
- On transverse momentum event–by–event fluctuations in string hadronic models (1998)
- Transverse momentum event-by-event fluctuations are studied within the string-hadronic model of high energy nuclear collisions, LUCIAE. Data on non-statistical pT fluctuations in p+p interactions are reproduced. Fluctuations of similar magnitude are predicted for nucleus-nucleus collisions, in contradiction to the preliminary NA49 results. The introduction of a string clustering mechanism (Firecracker Model) leads to a further, significant increase of pT fluctuations for nucleus-nucleus collisions. Secondary hadronic interactions, as implemented in LUCIAE, cause only a small reduction of pT fluctuations.
- Energy dependence of transverse mass spectra of kaons produced in p+p and p+pbar interactions : a compilation (2003)
- The data on mT spectra of K0S K+ and K- mesons produced in all inelastic p + p and p + pbar interactions in the energy range sqrt(s)NN=4.7-1800GeV are compiled and analyzed. The spectra are parameterized by a single exponential function, dN/(m_T*dm_T)=C exp(-m_T/T), and the inverse slope parameter T is the main object of study. The T parameter is found to be similar for K0S, K+ and K- mesons. It increases monotonically with collision energy from T~30MeV at sqrt(s)NN=4.7GeV to T~220MeV at sqrt(s)NN=1800GeV. The T parameter measured in p+p and p+pbar interactions is significantly lower than the corresponding parameter obtained for central Pb+Pb collisions at all studied energies. Also the shape of the energy dependence of T is different for central Pb+Pb collisions and p+p(pbar) interactions.
- Fluctuations of strangeness and deconfinement phase transition in nucleus-nucleus collisions (2004)
- We suggest that the fluctuations of strange hadron multiplicity could be sensitive to the equation of state and microscopic structure of strongly interacting matter created at the early stage of high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions. They may serve as an important tool in the study of the deconfinement phase transition. We predict, within the statistical model of the early stage, that the ratio of properly filtered fluctuations of strange to non-strange hadron multiplicities should have a non-monotonic energy dependence with a minimum in the mixed phase region.
- Baryon number conservation and statistical production of antibaryons (2000)
- The statistical production of antibaryons is considered within the canonical ensemble formulation. We demonstrate that the antibaryon suppression in small systems due to the exact baryon number conservation is rather different in the baryon-free (B=0) and baryon-rich (B>1) systems. At constant values of temperature and baryon density in the baryon-rich systems the density of the produced antibaryons is only weakly dependent on the size of the system. For realistic hadronization conditions this dependence appears to be close to B/(B+1) which is in agreement with the preliminary data of the NA49 Collaboration for the antiproton/pion ratio in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the CERN SPS energies. However, a consistent picture of antibaryon production within the statistical hadronization model has not yet been achieved. This is because the condition of constant hadronization temperature in the baryon-free systems leads to a contradiction with the data on the antiproton/pion ratio in e+e- interactions.
- Critical line of the deconfinement phase transition (2005)
- Phase diagram of strongly interacting matter is discussed within the exactly solvable statistical model of the quark-gluon bags. The model predicts two phases of matter: the hadron gas at a low temperature T and baryonic chemical potential muB, and the quark-gluon gas at a high T and/or muB. The nature of the phase transition depends on a form of the bag mass-volume spectrum (its pre-exponential factor), which is expected to change with the muB/T ratio. It is therefore likely that the line of the 1st} order transition at a high muB/T ratio is followed by the line of the 2nd order phase transition at an intermediate muB/T, and then by the lines of "higher order transitions" at a low muB/T.
- Transverse activity of kaons and the deconfinement phase transition in nucleus-nucleus collisions (2003)
- We found that the experimental results on transverse mass spectra of kaons produced in central Pb+Pb (Au+Au) interactions show an anomalous dependence on the collision energy. The inverse slopes of the spectra increase with energy in the low (AGS) and high (RHIC) energy domains, whereas they are constant in the intermediate (SPS) energy range. We argue that this anomaly is probably caused by a modification of the equation of state in the transition region between confined and deconfined matter. This observation may be considered as a new signal, in addition to the previously reported anomalies in the pion and strangeness production, of the onset of deconfinement located in the low SPS energy domain.
- Omega, J/psi and psi' production in nuclear collisions and quark gluon plasma hadronization (2002)
- The transverse mass spectra of Omega, J/psi and psi' in Pb+Pb collisions at 158 AGeV are studied within a hydrodynamical model of the quark gluon plasma expansion and hadronization. The model reproduces the existing data with the common hadronization parameters: temperature T=T_H = 170 MeV and average collective transverse velocity v_T = 0.2.
- Strangeness in Nuclear Collisions (1996)
- Data on the mean multiplicity of strange hadrons produced in minimum bias proton--proton and central nucleus--nucleus collisions at momenta between 2.8 and 400 GeV/c per nucleon have been compiled. The multiplicities for nucleon--nucleon interactions were constructed. The ratios of strange particle multiplicity to participant nucleon as well as to pion multiplicity are larger for central nucleus--nucleus collisions than for nucleon--nucleon interactions at all studied energies. The data at AGS energies suggest that the latter ratio saturates with increasing masses of the colliding nuclei. The strangeness to pion multiplicity ratio observed in nucleon--nucleon interactions increases with collision energy in the whole energy range studied. A qualitatively different behaviour is observed for central nucleus--nucleus collisions: the ratio rapidly increases when going from Dubna to AGS energies and changes little between AGS and SPS energies. This change in the behaviour can be related to the increase in the entropy production observed in central nucleus-nucleus collisions at the same energy range. The results are interpreted within a statistical approach. They are consistent with the hypothesis that the Quark Gluon Plasma is created at SPS energies, the critical collision energy being between AGS and SPS energies.
- Search for short lived particles in high multiplicity environment (1999)
- A method of statistical selection of short lived particles in high multiplicity nucleus-nucleus collisions is discussed.

MATADOR WOMEN LOOK FOR FOURTH STRAIGHT BIG WEST TITLE; MEN SEEK THIRD IN LAST FIVE YEARS The Cal State Northridge men's and women's track and field teams head to the Big West Outdoor Championships this weekend where the Matador women seek their fourth consecutive conference crown. The Northridge men are looking to recapture the Big West title after finishing second in 2008. Things got off to a solid start for both teams last weekend as junior Sherrina Lofton won the heptathlon and teammates Shelese Ruffin and Stella Dugall each scored as the women earned 21 points heading into the main portion of the meet. The men, led by Robert Robinson's third-place finish, picked up 17 points in the decathlon.
MEET RESULTS Live meet results following each event of the Big West Championships will be posted with complete results available at the end of each day.
MATADOR WOMEN'S PREVIEW The Northridge women will be led by 2008 Big West Track Athlete of the Year Sherrina Lofton. Lofton ranks first in both the 100 (11.57) and 200 meters (23.67) and is second in the 400 meters (54.12) heading into this weekend's championships. Ruffin, the 2008 conference 400 meter champion, ranks third in the 400 (54.30) and second in the 400 hurdles (60.13). Sophomore Tara Prier could also be a factor for the women as she has the third-best time in the 200 (23.99) and fourth-best time in the 400 (55.04). Dominique Calvin, who is making her fourth straight trip to the Big West Championships, is ranked fifth in the 100 meters, fourth in the 200 and seventh in the long jump. The Matadors come in ranked first in both the 4x100 and 4x400 relays. In the field events, the traditionally strong jump squad is led by senior Candyce Babb who is a two-time Big West long jump champion (2006, 2007). Stella Dugall also ranks fourth in the triple jump. In the throws, junior Stephanie Ralls is the defending Big West javelin champion and comes in ranked first with a throw of 159-3.25. Teammate Haylee Varner ranks third in the javelin at 135-9.75. Sophomore Whitney Hooks ranks fifth in the shot put while junior Claire Morgan comes in ranked seventh in the discus.
MATADOR MEN'S PREVIEW Sophomore Reindell Cole and senior Rolando Felizola lead the Matador jumpers into the Big West Championships. Cole, the 2008 NCAA Indoor Long Jump champion, has the top mark in the conference in the long jump (25-9.50) while Felizola owns the best mark in the triple jump (50-11). Cole is the defending Big West long jump champion while Felizola was second in both the long jump and triple jump at the 2007 conference championships. Sophomore Thomas Johnson is ranked fifth in the high jump while fellow junior Matt Todd ranks seventh in the pole vault heading into the championships. On the track, junior De'Shawn Waters comes into the meet as the top-ranked sprinter in both the 100 (10.42) and 200 meters (21.20). Junior Ben Santos also comes in with a solid time of 10.65 in the 100 meters. Also on the track, the Matadors' 4x100 relay team holds the fastest time in the conference at 40.49. In addition to the jump team, the Matadors will look to their throwers in the field events. Junior Derek Cooper, the defending Big West discus champion, comes in with the best discus mark and is second in the shot put. Senior Cody Pearce, the 2008 Big West hammer runner-up, boasts the third-best mark in the conference in the hammer at 192-11.25.

This column was corrected on Aug. 6. An explanation follows the column.
International food services giant Sodexo has given formal notice to exercise its early lease termination option at its North American headquarters in Gaithersburg, but it hasn't ruled out a new rental deal, according to building owner CBRE.
As part of the process of weighing its options, the French company notified its landlord at One Washingtonian Center 60 days ago that it might move its 500-plus workers at the end of next year, said CBRE Executive Vice President Larry Thau, who heads the building's leasing team.
"But that doesn't mean they're leaving," he said. "They have a set of economic options they are considering, including staying in the building."
Thau referred further questions to Todd Frye, a principal with CBRE Investors LLC-Strategic Partners, who did not return a call for comment. CBRE Investors paid $90 million last year to buy the 315,929-square-foot office building at 9801 Washingtonian Blvd.
"Like all companies, we are always exploring opportunities to serve our customers and our employees," said Sodexo spokesman Enrico Dinges.
But he had no comment on whether the company is considering renegotiating its existing lease or any incentives offered to remain in the county.
"I can confirm they have terminated their lease," said broker Jack McShea, president of McShea & Co. of Gaithersburg, which is representing Sodexo in its search for space. "They are exploring all options."
That includes sites in Montgomery County and Northern Virginia, but a renegotiated lease also remains an option, he said.
Gaithersburg officials are operating on the assumption that the company might not move at all.
"I believe they're exploring their options and 9801 certainly continues to be considered," said Tom Lonergan, the city's economic development director. "We hope they will stay, with the city, the state and the county offering a generous incentive package."
He declined to confirm or deny speculation that the city and county both have put tax credits or other offers totaling $500,000 on the table.
"Our interest, of course, is for Sodexo to stay in the city, but we have every expectation that the county offer would be available for any location they might consider, including Gaithersburg," Lonergan said.
Sodexo USA's relocation explorations might be in earnest, or the company might simply be trying to squeeze its new landlord for a better lease. Marriott, Sodexo USA's former corporate parent, was notably successful in that regard in 1999, when it won state and county promises of $31.7 million to $44.2 million — depending on staying in Bethesda or moving to Rockville — in grants and tax breaks to stop it from moving its 3,500-employee corporate headquarters to Virginia.
Whatever Sodexo's plan, its rumored relocation options may not be taking into account the burden of commuting on company employees.
Although its current headquarters received platinum certification from the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program in 2010, it's more than 3 miles from the nearest Metrorail stop, at the Shady Grove station in Rockvillle. But easy Metro access isn't a selling point at any of the other locations — the Rock Spring complex in North Bethesda, Tower Oaks in Rockville, or Reston, Va. — that real estate industry sources say the company is considering.
"It doesn't make economic sense for Sodexo to move, when you factor in rent and relocation costs and loss of productivity," said Kenneth Smondrowski, director of leasing at Mack-Cali Realty of Edison, N.J., a major office space owner in the region. "I can't see Sodexo moving to Northern Virginia. Most of its employees live in northern Montgomery County, Gaithersburg, Germantown or even Frederick."
He also said Sodexo isn't looking in Prince George's County, either because a new building would cost too much to construct or due to a lack of readily available space. Mack-Cali owns 964,258 square feet of office space in Greenbelt and Lanham but has nothing open big enough to handle Sodexo, which occupies 181,000 square feet in Gaithersburg.
NIH leasing lab space in Rockville for $51.9M
The National Institutes of Health is expanding its lab space in Rockville, taking 75,056 square feet in the Shady Grove Life Sciences Center, according to the General Services Administration.
The agency signed a $51.9 million lease for 15 years in the 9800 Medical Center Drive complex, a four-building project owned by Alexandria Real Estate Equities of Pasadena, Calif. The NIH Chemical Genomics Center already leases 59,662 square feet there.
The lease, originally put out for expressions of interest in 2009, called for secure and highly specialized lab space in close proximity to the genomics center, which was created in 2004 as the first part of a national network intended to produce new chemical tools for use in biological research and drug development.
With the new lease, the 281,475-square-foot Shady Grove complex is 97 percent leased. But Alexandria Real Estate plans to add 236,000 square feet of new commercial space, which could house 500 to 700 bioscience jobs at the 18-acre site, under a project that already has won county approval.
The company bought the four buildings for $77.8 million in 2004, when Human Genome Sciences began consolidating space.
The complex was more than half empty little more than a year ago, until the opening in June of the new 72,000-square-foot headquarters of Advanced Bioscience Laboratories, which relocated from White Flint in North Bethesda.
Planned 182-acre business park for sale near Frederick
CBRE, in partnership with Fitzgerald Realty Group, announced that is marketing the Century Center at Retreat Farms, a 182-acre planned business park in Frederick County.
The project, owned in a joint venture by Potomac Capital Advisors and Fitzgerald Realty Group, was annexed by the town of Walkersville to allow multiple building construction on single lots. The property is across the Monocacy River north of Frederick.
Possible uses include research, office, warehousing and light assembly, manufacturing, data centers, flex space and hotel conference centers.
The Century Center will sell industrial lots ranging in size from just larger than 2 acres to 80 acres. The park also has been designed to cluster lots into 10- to 15-acre land bays.
A bonus feature includes a mile and a half of river frontage where 26,000 trees have been planted. The wooded acreage can be purchased to meet forestation requirements in other developments.
CBRE's John Wilhide and John Boote represent the owner, Washington Century Fund, along with Seamus Fitzgerald of Fitzgerald Realty.
Hampden Square in Bethesda has new management
American Realty Advisors has changed management of its Hampden Square office building in downtown Bethesda, according to Transwestern, which announced it was hired for the job.
The 144,000-square-foot class A office building at 4800 Montgomery Lane is a block from the Bethesda Metro station. The owner bought the circa 1988 property in 1998 for $34.1 million.
The 12-story property has 41,318 square feet available, according to a leasing brochure.
Transwestern also was hired to manage three buildings in Washington, D.C., in the same portfolio.
Carr lines up $57M to start Bethesda office building
Broker Cassidy Turley announced that it secured $57 million in financing for Carr Properties of Washington, D.C., to start construction of a long-delayed office building in downtown Bethesda.
The loan was provided by Wells Fargo.
The 220,000-square-foot speculative property will replace a McDonald's and a home converted into office space at 4500 East West Highway. The building will have ground floor retail space and underground parking one block east of the Bethesda Metro station under plans that were approved in 2008.
Carr bought the development rights from the Clarett Group of New York, which paid $71.6 million for the 1.3-acre site in 2008. For decades, developers have eyed the property, which is across East West Highway from Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School.
Carr, which owns and operates a portfolio of about $1 billion of commercial office properties in the Washington region, is a subsidiary of JP Morgan Asset Management.
Mack-Cali announces Prince George's leases
Mack-Cali Realty announced that it leased 48,984 square feet in Prince George's County during the first quarter.
Three deals alone in the company's Capital Office Park in Greenbelt accounted for more than half the space. They included the following:
The University of Maryland's 8,030-square-foot lease renewal at 6305 Ivy Lane. The 112,022-square-foot office building is now 94.3 percent leased.
Web designer Blue Water Media signed a 6,501-square-foot renewal and for 3,550 square feet at 6404 Ivy Lane. The 165,234-square-foot building is now 69.5 percent leased.
MHI Hotels, trading as Chesapeake Hospitality, signed a 5,917-square-foot renewal and a 916-square-foot expansion at 6411 Ivy Lane. The building is 69.1 percent leased.
All the deals were brokered in-house by Smondrowski.
Commercial real estate news items may be mailed to Robert Rand, The Business Gazette, 9030 Comprint Court, Gaithersburg, MD 20877; emailed to email@example.com; or faxed to 301-670-7183.
An item in the column should have said that Hampden Square in Bethesda has new management, not that it was up for sale.

Accreditation Updates
Accreditation Updates
May 6, 2013
To: CCSF Community
From: Dr. Thelma Scott-Skillman, Interim Chancellor
Date May 6, 2013
Re: Accreditation Update
Per the ACCJC process, the College Chancellor or President receives a confidential draft evaluation report from the visiting team chair to correct any errors of fact found in the report, but it may not alter the findings and conclusions. I received the confidential draft evaluation report late last week, consulted with appropriate staff members to assist in the corrections of fact, and submitted our findings yesterday to the visiting team chair for consideration. The team chair will finalize and submit the draft evaluation report to the Commission.
In addition, at the end of this month the College will submit an update on the action plans to apprise the Commission on the progress and milestones reached since the April 2013 visit. The current progress report on action plans is available on our accreditation website at http://www.ccsf.edu/ACC/OngoingActionableImprovementPlansMASTER%20DOC.pdf
The Accrediting Commission meets June 5-7, 2013. Please see a link to their public session agenda.
Note that decisions are not announced at their meeting. We expect notification of their decision in July 2013, along with the release of all other Commission decisions.
I thank you for your efforts as we continue working hard toward completing the planned actions for this semester.
April 8, 2013
April 8, 2013
To: The CCSF College Community
From: Dr. Thelma Scott-Skillman, Interim Chancellor
The Visiting Team of the Accrediting Commission has come and gone. I want to thank everyone who participated with the on-site visit of April 4-5, 2013. I especially want to thank Gohar Momjian, Accreditation Liaison Officer (ALO), for stewarding the entire accreditation process that has been occurring at CCSF since notified of the 'show cause' status in July 2012, including the Response to the 14 Recommendations of July 2012 (submitted October 15, 2012), the entire Self-Study (submitted March 15, 2013), and the logistics for the on-site team visit (April 4-5, 2013). Gohar's organizational and management skills had a tremendous impact on ensuring that CCSF made good on its 'deliverables' to the Board of Trustees, Commission, the Visiting Team, college community, and the general public.
Indeed Gohar's focused attention to detail has required extensive assistance from numerous individuals including her office colleagues, campus police, custodians, faculty, classified staff, administrators, and students. For those of you who took time to meet with the on-site Team Members, thank you. Your input was critical for the visiting team. The assistance that has been extended to get CCSF to this day speaks volumes to the commitment, dedication, and passion held for CCSF.
Getting to this day, April 8th, has been no easy feat. I simply ask that you take a break, reflect and assess the role you have had in assisting CCSF to get to this day.
A tremendous amount of work has been addressed, with many deficiencies cited and corrected. There is still much work to be completed. "Accreditation" is a process that is continuous and necessary for the health and well-being of the institution. In the March 15, 2013 self-study CCSF identified numerous action plans/agendas to be addressed, many during the next several months. The visiting team was presented with a tremendous amount of change, honesty and clarity of the institution's self-assessment and remaining work. Conversations with many of you echo similar feedback, particularly regarding the degree of sustainability for CCSF to continue its noted efforts and action items. Again, what role will you have in addressing these action plans/agendas?
The Accrediting Commission meets in June, 2013 to render a decision on CCSF's status. During that meeting, the Commission will be provided an update on the progress CCSF has made regarding its outstanding action plans/agendas as identified in the self-study. Notification of the Commission's action should be sent to CCSF by mid-July 2013.
A sincere thank you for embracing the challenges needed for CCSF to respond to the accreditation standards and eligibility requirements to ensure quality education and services for CCSF students.

"Pleasure is the flower that passes. Remembrance the lasting perfume." Jean de Boufflers
There are certain parts of being a mum which are, let's be honest, a real turn-off.
1. Emptying the school bag.
How many dads do this? It may sound like a relatively quick and simple task, but in my household invariably takes a full half hour of reading, calendar-ing, checking, organising and notifying. And that doesn't include the jogging of memories, baking, PTAing and making-sure-it-all-actually-happens-on-the-daying.
2. Snot.
Now, for some reason, I have grown accustomed to my childrens' pooh. It phases me not. It can even be funny (my 4 year old shouts "splash, pond!" when his doo-doo hits the water). But for some reason snot, especially the green stuff, still makes me queasy. Dads seem to be content to let it run. Kids use a sleeve. What the hell is it with everyone around here? Use a tissue!
3. Stuff on the floor.
Shoes, primarily, but also…..laptop bags(dad), dirty washing (dad and boys), water pistols (boys) and today even an actual Scooter (not dad)! I remain convinced that if I died tomorrow the rest of the family would eventually suffocate in the growing mountain of clothing which would swallow them whole, whilst watching Sponge Bob Square Pants and munching crisps, with only vague memories of my existence.
Anyway, why am I telling you this? Because, on the flip-side, there are certain things about being a mum which violently make up for these aberrations. One of them is this – when your tiny little child who is not yet able to roll his or her 'Rs' presents you with an artistic offering which he or she has diligently made at nursery/school. Your heart beats just a little bit faster and for a fleeting moment you are united in the knowledge that this dreadful, unaccomplished piece of 'tat' is both a symbol of the bond of love which you share and a sign that your baby is growing up.
Your child's art work holds much to admire. Captured over time, it shows the improvements to their dexterity and motor skills – learning to hold a paint brush or stamp a potato on the actual paper is no mean feat for a 2 year old. Eventually the sloppy squiggles turn into shapes – their memories are developing to be able to translate what they recognise onto paper. Shapes become faces and then there is the magical moment when they finally conquer writing their own name! (I would like to offer some in-hindsight advice here to all mums-to-be. When selecting a name for your unborn child, pick "Jill" or "Tim" in order to avoid lagging behind in the 'my baby wrote his name before your baby' competition. I, rather foolishly, saddled my kids with "George" and "Oliver", two more circular names would be hard to come by and the letter 'e' is a right bugger, it turns out.)
Over the years, I have 'tidied away' some classic art pieces, some of which I have shared here with you today.
What do you do with yours? Take our survey, we'd love to know!
I'm firmly in the 'keep the best stuff' category. I religiously scan (or photograph is sometimes easier – clay pots tend to break the scanner, I find) their stuff, making lots of oohs and aaahs at their incredible tiny brilliance, and post a digital copy of their creations on to their lifelines. There they can be enjoyed forever, without filling too many boxes in my tiny, cramped office, and they are date-stamped and catalogued chronologically (and best yet, automatically) on their Lifeline. I know for a fact that one day they will thank me for it.
Hopefully it is these memories which will overshadow the remembrance of me ranting about Scooters in the hall, and snot.

Autobild is reporting that a carbon fiber roof will be an available option on the upcoming 1 series M coupe, the first we have heard of this. The lack of denial by BMW insider Scott26 who chimed in on the topic makes us think this one potentially has some solid credibility.
Think the 1M Coupe has Alpine325ci's attention and interest? He has been prolifically rendering 1M coupes, and the latest (and best) render updates the front view of the 1-series M coupe to include the LCI (facelift) lights which have already been spied and confirmed to be featured on the 1M.
The 1M coupe is said to be coming in only three colors – Valencia Orange, Black, and Alpine White, the latter of which is previewed here by our Alpine325ci. Seen here is a rear rendering which follows the stunning front rendering from a few weeks back.
Car Enthusiast weighs in with their initial drive impressions, and yet positive review, full of potential for the 1M Coupe.
Another Review , And again they love it… Heres what they say: When you see the BMW 1-series M Coupé in the metal, it's hard not to be impressed. Even with the taped disguise of this pre-production prototype, it is clear that this is more than just a warmed-over version of BMW's price-leading two-door.
It's not beautiful. But the added visual muscle and ground-hugging stance of the new entry-level M-car raises expectations of the performance lurking within. It's a shot of attitude before you've even climbed … CONTINUED
M-Power.com just released an interview with Albert Biermann, Head of Development BMW M, giving away some more details on the 1 Series M Coupé
1M coupe first drive impressions continue to roll in. Edmunds was also part of the select group participating in the BMW 1M coupe prototype preliminary drives. Their initial impressions inside.
Select journalists were recently provided near production ready 1M coupes to test drive and review. Motortrend has now weighed in with their first drive impression, calling the 1M's high level of control and cornering a level that seems impossible outside the virtual world of Sony's Gran Turismo!

Other EC hitters in the five-inning matchup were Dominican Republic native Rubert Alcantara, double, single and two RBIs; Xavier Franklin of Newton County, John Morgan Berry of Madison Central and Deion Ulmer of Laurel, two singles each; `and Ryan Shotts of Louisville, single.

- 50% Cotton, 45% nylon, 5% spandex
- Imported
- Center back to hem: 32" (80 cm)
- Model is 5'10" and wears a US size S
Rated 4.5 out of 5�by 2 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5�by Kay517 Cute When I first seen this coat, I didn't care for it. However, I needed a spring trench jacket that wasn't black, so I'd figure I'll give this one a try! It's too cute and I love the shiny material inside! The only reason why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I don't care for the bottom "skirt". It looks too dressy, but that's my personal opinion! If you're having second thoughts, get it, because it's a very unique jacket!!!! March 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Trisha9 Stunning This trench is gorgeous!!! It fits true to size. I'm a size 10, and purchased it in large. Inside is a metallic lining which gives this trench more edge. I love mine!! Soooo glad I made this purchase March 16, 2014
