Menomonee Falls, WI—Kohl's said today that its third quarter profit fell 18% as comparable store sales were down 1.6%, all missing expectations.
Though optimistic about its fourth quarter, Kohl's still lowered its earnings forecast for the holiday season. Upon the news, shares of the company fell in early trading.
For the quarter ended Nov. 2, the department store posted net income of $177 million, or 81 cents a share, compared with a profit of $215 million, or 91 cents, a year ago. That was below analysts' average forecast for earnings of 86 cents a share.
Net revenue was down 1% to $4.49 billion while comparable store sales fell 1.6%. Both results were below analysts forecast for $4.55 billion in sales and a 0.7% decline in comp sales.
Holiday Marketing Spend Up
Gross margin also declined to 37.5% from 38.1%.
Despite the declines, Kevin Mansell, Kohl's chairman/president/ceo, presented an optimistic view of the company's fourth quarter.
"As we enter the Holiday season, we believe we are well-positioned from a merchandise content and inventory perspective to gain market share," Mansell said.
"We have increased our marketing spending and improved its impact and reach in order to drive higher traffic to our stores and on-line. Our customer will find the
perfect gift for everyone on her shopping list at Kohl's and will be excited by the value she receives in both our only-at-Kohl's and national brands."
Nonetheless, that didn't stop the discount department store chain from narrowing its full year outlook to between $4.08 and $4.23 a share from an earlier $4.15 to $4.35, mostly below analysts' view of $4.23.
For fourth quarter, Kohl's projected earnings between $1.59 to $1.74 a share compared with analysts' estimate of $1.70. Sales are expected to decline 2% to 4% during the crucial holiday period in November and December, a reflection of consumers tightening their wallets.
Since Kohl's caters to middle-income shoppers, analysts expressed concern about holiday sales.
"With Macy's raising the top-line bar yesterday, Kohl's material same-store sales shortfall raises competitive concerns going into the fourth quarter," JP Morgan analyst Matthew Boss wrote today.
UBS Upgraded Kohl's Stock
"This guidance assumes continued weakness at the company," Stifel Nicolaus analyst Richard Jaffe said.
The third quarter report was even more shocking since it came on the heels of UBS analysts upgrading Kohl's earlier this month to "buy" from "neutral." UBS had cited Kohl's new inventory and merchandise strategy, launched in April 2012. UBS called the strategy "a much better, multifaceted strategy" and said Kohl's has outlined its plans to address each of the business' key challenges as opposed to simply building up inventories of "low-impact merchandise" to drive traffic and sales.

"Perfect, beautiful beach vacation in Haleiwa!"
This was the second time we stayed in one of Jill's Haleiwa properties. The major appeal of this one was the beach right outside our door. We'll never forget frolicking in the water with the amazing sea turtles (just make sure you don't interfere with them because they are protected!). It was also within walking distance of Haleiwa town, which is full of amazing restaurants and shops (try Cholo's Mexican restaurant & Coffee Gallery). Jill took great care of us and made sure everything was perfect. We'll definitely return to this amazing place! Thank you, Jill!

"Adorable condo and enjoyable location."
Adorable condo, better than our expectations. We had a
wonderful 11 day stay. The owner has tastefully decorated, and updated this condo for a comfortable, cozy, relaxing stay. This is a "gem" of a place with the
most amazing ocean front view from the lanai, and mere
steps to the beach. We saw large ocean waves, turtles on
the beach, and rainbows almost daily. Condo is close to
everything on the north shore. Walking distance to
Historic Haleiwa Town, unique shops, and great restaurants. We walked to Haleiwa for dinner and browsing the shops daily. Management of the complex does
a great job of keeping the grounds clean, well maintained, beautifully landscaped, and a quiet, enjoyable
location. Absolutely recommend and hope to stay here again.

"The most relaxing vacation ever.."
What a great place! It was everything you pictured a Hawaiian vacation would be. We loved the small little town, restaurants, and kayaking with the sea turtles, but nothing beats the view from the amazing condo! The condo was clean, comfortable and in the best location for morning walks on the beach. The best part was sitting on the balcony at night and listening to the sound of the waves.

"Wow!..North Shore at it's Best"
This was the third time my Husband and were guests at Haleiwa Surf...The first time he proposed! (something about sitting together on the lanai over looking the beach : ) That was 5 years ago, now on our resent visit we were so pleased to see the kitchen had been completely remodeled, adding some extra luxury to our beach hideaway.
We highly recommend this unit to anyone who wants a very clean, well appointed home away from home on the North Shore of Oahu. The location is fantastic, you can spend your days lounging on the beach, run up to the condo (each have your own bathroom to shower and get ready for your days journey). All the major activities on the North Shore are right at your doorstep.
The layout of the condo itself really adds to the experience. The kitchen is open to the living room which allows you to prep a meal while looking out over the ocean, feeling the breeze while you create something yummy from the local Farmers Market.
If you ever wanted to have the sound of waves to lull you to sleep, just do what we do and take advantage of the futon in the living room, then wake up to the sparkling pacific ocean!
We can't say enough about this gem of a condo and truly hope others appreciate and enjoy how lovely it is and many more special memories are created there.

"Great location to get away from the big city"
When planning our vacation, we didn't want to stay in a big city, so we chose the North Shore. The town ended up being about 20 miles or so north of the airport which wasn't far at all. It was nice to find that it was exactly what we were looking for. The facility was quiet with a good mixture of residents and vacationing families. The view and balcony are great. Bring a good book to enjoy. The condo was a little small, but since we didn't spend much time inside, it ended up being just the right size for my wife and I plus two younger children. The small town was easy to walk to and the shaved ice was cheap and tasty. The kitchen is small, but clean, new, and well equipped. We saved a ton of money eating a few of the meals in the condo. I would recommend this place and will likely go back to enjoy it again.

Great locations--the beach out front is great for everything beach related, walk to town, shop at farmers' markets and cook great meals at home.
I'll stay here again for sure.

"A really perfect getaway."
What a wonderful find. Haleiwa Surf is unique because it's right on a beautiful North Shore beach but within walking distance to Haleiwa town. If you are seeking a sleek tourist-resort experience, you probably would prefer Turtle Bay or Honolulu. But if you want a more local, laid-back, Hawaiian experience, this condo cannot be beat.
The condo unit is clean, attractive, and well-stocked, with a beautiful new kitchen and bamboo floors. The most amazing feature, however, is the view overlooking the beach, framed by the gorgeous treetops outside the lanai. The condo beach is ideal--it's uncrowded and protected by a reef--so it is safe for swimming and snorkeling (with the sea turtles), even during the winter. Everyone that we met was friendly and there was a real community and family feel to the evening barbeques and sunset-watching at the condo picnic tables.
We walked over to ali'i beach (the next beach down) for the Reef Hawaiian Pro Surfing competition. It was an unexpected treat to see some of the best surfers in the world within a five-minute walk. We could even watch it from the lanai. Haleiwa has some really good restaurants and food trucks--many within walking distance--and a fantastic massage therapist (recommended by Jill)!
We will be back--again and again.

"Lovely Ocean View Condo in Haleiwa, Hawaii"
My husband, adult daughter and I stayed in this one bedroom, two bathroom ocean front condo with beautiful views from the balcony. This unit is on the third floor with no elevator which was fine for us but it is not accessible for people who cannot handle stairs. We swam and took daily walks on the beach where we were delighted by the huge sea turtles napping on the beach.
The living room, kitchen and bedroom have new bamboo floors. The small kitchen has new granite countertops and appliances. Instead of a traditional oven, there is a microwave/convection oven which worked well for both purposes. The bathrooms have not been remodeled but they were clean and functional. The living room has an attractive futon sofa that can sleep two but the mattress was a little lumpy.
Haleiwa is a charming little town about 30 to 40 minutes by car from Honolulu with a small marina, restaurants, shops and easy access to a grocery store and a drug store. We enjoyed both the condo and the town very much.

"Hawaii 50 in 2010"
It was our first time to the islands. Everything was fantastic. The sunsets, the ocean, the parks, the location, the people, the lifestyle, the fruit. I could go on and on but you get the picture. Everything including the condo was beautiful. The only thing we did not think of is living without air conditioning was a bit "warm" for us in July.

Thanks for the positive comments! There is an air conditioning unit in the bedroom. The condo in on the ground floor and well shaded. There are also many overhead and standing fans to help circulate air. I've always been cool when visiting, but realize we all have different temperatures we are accustom to. I'm glad the trip was great!

"Fantastic paradise"
"We stayed in this condo for our honeymoon in late august to early September. I can't really find any words to do it justice. We hired a car and saw plenty of the rest of the island, and we couldn't believe how lucky we had been in finding a place like this. Situated in a lovely town it was so beautiful. A stark contrast to the high-rise buildings and crowded beaches in Waikiki. It was an absolute paradise. We loved sitting on the lanai while the sun was setting each evening or being in the water just outside. It was so lovely to stay in a 'home from home' rather than being in a hotel sitting in 1 room. I have such fond memories of our time in Hawaii. The weather was a lot warmer than we are used to, but we could easily cool down in the sea. This condo is situated in such a great location. We loved going to Scoops of Paradise in the town and sampling their ice cream and mochi. Throughout the honeymoon we both kept saying how lucky we had been in finding this place. I found Jill to be very helpful and prompt in her correspondence - she was a delight to deal with. We don't know anyone who is planning a trip over to Hawaii anytime soon, but if we hear that anyone is we will definitely recommend this condo."

"Small Town Splendor"
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Jill's Condo! It was wonderful to have coffee in the morning and watch the sunset in the evenings from the lanai overlooking the water. It was also a treat to walk down the beach in the late afternoon and watch the sea turtles come ashore. The little town had many restaurants to choose from but we really enjoyed being able to BBQ on the property grounds. The best part of staying in Haleiwa was leaving the hustle and bustle of Honolulu and returning to the quiet town at the end of each day. We definitely will return to this quaint North Shore town.

Jaws versus Hot Dogs
by Mike Stanz
posted Jul 7 2014 3:00PM
According to a certain carmaker, three things make this land of ours great. Hot dogs, apple pie and Chevrolet. So what could be more American than to hold the Super Bowl of competitive eating on the 4
of July – where the only thing on the menu is hot dogs, of course.
Joey "Jaws" Chestnut managed to down 61 hot dogs, buns and all, in ten minutes over the weekend to maintain his championship title.
And here's some fun: just prior to the start of this year's match, Chestnut proposed to his girlfriend, and she said yes.
She's also a competitive food eater. Your menu choices for that wedding will be limited to mustard or ketchup.

Compliment Inducing Bert from Dublin, OH on 10/08/2014 – Verified Buyer
These are a great addition to the Zwilling Bellasera flatware set. The size is very demure but adds that special touch to a dinner party or get-together. They also make great sampling spoons, or can be used as serving spoons for building your own appetizers. I would highly recommend these, especially if you already have the matching flatware set.

Slovenia defeat Estonia with Robert Beric goal
Robert Beric struck to give Slovenia renewed hope of automatic qualification for Euro 2016 with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Estonia in Celje.
The Slovenes blew a 2-0 lead to fall 3-2 to Group E rivals Switzerland on Saturday and the repercussions were evident as they struggled against the group minnows.
Beric broke the deadlock in the 63rd minute but the hosts were forced to withstand late pressure with goalkeeper Samir Handanovic making a fine save to deny Konstantin Vassiljev an equaliser two minutes...

In the early afternoon of August 24 in A.D. 79, more than 300 residents of Herculaneum, Rome fled to the shores of the Mediterranean. Some lingered on the beach, others huddled inside seafront boathouses, and all were terrified. For the past several days the earth had been rocked by tremors. Earthquakes were a fairly common occurrence in the area and not a great cause for concern; 17 years earlier, a quake had severely damaged the town. This time, however, the rocking earth was accompanied by a tremendous explosion from nearby Mount Vesuvius, which had been dormant for more than 800 years. Hot ash and pumice spewed 12 miles high, forming a classic mushroom cloud that blotted out the sun and turned daylight into dusk. Wind-carried ash rained down on the community, but unlike nearby Pompeii, which was rapidly covered by nearly 60 feet of the hot material, only a few inches fell on Herculaneum.
Residents tied pillows to their heads as a protection against falling rocks as they fled. Throughout the night they trembled with fear, awaiting rescue boats that never arrived. As dawn broke the mushroom cloud finally collapsed. Volcanic gas and ash combined with the soil, sending wave after wave of liquified material rushing down the mountain at more than 100 miles per hour. With temperatures in excess of 900 degrees Fahrenheit, the superheated material instantly incinerated the residents of Herculaneum and buried the town beneath more than 60 feet of volcanic mud.
For almost 1700 years, Herculaneum was lost to history. Centuries after the A.D. 79 eruption, unaware that they were building atop the site of an ancient Roman city, a new town sprung up. Gradually, as foundations and wells were dug, artifacts began to emerge. Official excavations of the ruins, which began in 1738, found very few bodies, thus it was assumed that the town had been mostly evacuated prior to the eruption. It wasn't until 1981 that the boathouse was discovered and, shortly thereafter, more than 300 skeletons began emerging from the volcanic tuff. Read More
Cornwall has always been a distinctive part of England. Eons ago two plates of the earth's crust rammed into one another, uplifting and twisting the underlying rock into the wild and windswept headlands that created its magnificent scenery. Geographically, this southwestern-most tip of England dips it's toes in the English Channel at a point where the Atlantic Gulf Stream comes closest to Britain, which blesses it with more temperate weather than the rest of the country.
Even the cultural identity of Cornwall is unique. Though everyone speaks English, locals have also carefully preserved their Cornish dialect, which is derived from their Celtic roots. Pasties, a kind of pastry pocket most often filled with beef steak, onion, potato and, turnips, originated in Cornwall, as did that mainstay of English tea and scones, Cornish clotted cream. Today Cornish cream has protected status; it can only be produced in Cornwall and is one of the county's most important industries.
For a few decades, mining supplanted agriculture and fishing as the area's most important industry, as rich deposits of tin, copper, and a pure white clay used in the manufacture of porcelain were discovered beneath its bucolic green hills. But by the late 20th century, mining was no longer economically feasible and, with the exception of a few clay pits, the mines ceased operation. Instead, Cornwall turned it's view toward tourism, capitalizing on its natural beauty and the moderating influence of the Gulf Stream, which provides Cornwall with the mildest and sunniest weather in the UK. This unique climate proved ideal for gardens that today feature scores of plant varieties that cannot exist in other parts of England.
One of these gardens, The Eden Project, was built in a 160-year-old china clay quarry that had been closed down in 1995. A year after the pit's closure, Tim Smits, who conceived the idea for the Eden Project, drew initial sketches for the garden's design on a cocktail napkin in a pub. Smits wanted a place to showcase the world's most important plants and he realized he would need a very, very big site. The abandoned clay pit seemed perfect and gradually, the design evolved into a series of giant bubbles because dome-like structures can settle on any surface, even an irregular clay pit.
It all started with a tweet. I shared a fellow travel blogger's story about stargazing in Florida on Twitter and Amanda at St. Mawes Retreats replied:
I didn't know anything about St. Mawes Retreats, but Cornwall was a part of the world I had been itching to visit. A year earlier I'd spent time in Dorset, where I went hunting for Ammonite fossils on the Jurrasic coast in Lyme Regis and hiked the South West Coast Path between Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door. It was a place of unexpectedly stunning beauty, with soaring white chalk cliffs swathed in thick green grass, and turquoise coves framed by heaved-up, twisted rock formations that provide evidence of the tortured geologic history of the area. Each time I mentioned the gorgeous Devon scenery to a Brit, I was told, 'If you think Devon was pretty, you must visit Cornwall.' I replied on Twitter and we began chatting back and forth.
I've never been a "bucket list" kind of traveler. At the very least, the idea of checking places off some tally before I die seems crude; at worst it seems an irreverent measure of one's worldliness. And yet, I must confess to having one item on what I prefer to call my "travel wish list." I am dying to see the Northern Lights.
It's not as if I haven't tried. For an entire year, at the tender age of 19, I scanned the skies nightly from my unheated log cabin, deep in the north woods of Wisconsin. One winter night, during the decade I lived on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, auroral activity was predicted to be strong enough that the Northern Lights would be visible that far south. I sat up all night on the rear deck of my house, which was surrounded by 12 acres of maritime forest, shivering violently inside a thick down comforter. No lights appeared that night either.
Last winter, Norway Tourism invited me to visit Norway, offering an itinerary that almost surely guaranteed seeing the coveted Aurora Borealis. Alas, I could not accept because I had spent the previous 90 days in France and Spain, and regulations demanded that I leave Europe, as Americans can only be in any of the 27 countries that comprise the 'Schengen zone' – a border-free area that includes 23 European Union member states – for 90 out of every 180 days.
I had just about given up when I received an invitation from Hurtigruten to sail around the northern tip of Norway aboard one of their working ships. I weighed the offer carefully. I am not a good sailor; rough seas always defeat me, and sailing above the Arctic Circle sounded like an adventure for someone with better sea legs. On the other hand, I had managed heavy seas during an eight-day sail around the Galapagos Islands. How much worse could the Arctic Ocean be? In the end, my yearning to see the Northern Lights won out, especially since we would be sailing in remote seas where there would be no light pollution. Read More
I heard them long before I saw them. The Huskies were barking and whining excitedly at the approach of our van, knowing that a van meant people, and people meant they would soon be doing what they love most – pulling a dogsled. Our guide had warned that the dogs would raise a ruckus, but assured us that most were friendly and loved attention. "If you hold out your hand and a dog backs away, just leave that one alone."
I clambered out of the van, donned a black burglar face mask as protection against the cold, and headed into the fray. Squat wooden dog houses sprouted from the snow in neat rows, each duplex housing two Huskies. Between the rows, two-passenger sleds were loading up and heading out on the heels of those arriving. The din grew louder each time a sled appeared, with dogs yipping and straining at their chains, hoping it would be their turn.
It was hard to tear myself away from a particular blue-eyed, white-ruffed Husky who nuzzled me as I scratched his neck, but my sled awaited. The driver, known as a musher, helped me into the slightly elevated rear seat. Once I was settled, my tour-mate, Marianne, straddled the sled and lowered herself to the bottom, snugging up against me. At a word from the musher we were off! We flew out of the yard and through a clump of trees, building up to a remarkable speed. Our sled raced down a small hill, hitting hard enough at the bottom that I bounced up in the air, hitting Marianne in the head with my camera as I came back down. Read More
I had been looking forward to my tour to the North Cape. Normally not a fan of cold weather, I was willing to endure Norway's extreme conditions, if only to be able to say that I had stood on the northernmost tip of Europe. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be. A couple of hours prior to departure the public address system on the MS Richard With, one of Hurtigruten's fleet of ships that combine passenger voyages with delivery of mail and supplies to the remote northern regions of the country, delivered the bad news. "We regret to inform you that our North Cape tour has been cancelled due to inclement weather conditions."
Later that week, when Captain Tommy Eliassen invited our small group of travel writers to visit the bridge, I learned that he shared our disappointment. We took turns sitting in his captain's chair and marveling over the tiny joystick that maneuvered the big ship into snug ports of call while firing off a barrage of questions. Asked if he ever became concerned about sailing through Arctic storms like the one we had experienced on our second night at sea, he shook his head without hesitation.
"This ship is rated to sail through a force ten hurricane. Of course, we wouldn't do that; there is no reason to make our passengers so uncomfortable. My biggest stress is when we have to cancel activities like your trip to the Cape, but it was out of our hands."
Eliassen explained that the snow plow drivers who keep the roads clear in this remote area had made the final decision. Over the previous two days, roaring 50 mile per hour winds had created whiteout conditions and swept high drifts across the road. These famous drivers are known for their fearlessness and tenacity during storms; their orders to close roads are inviolable. (To watch a documentary about the lives of these snow plow operators, click here. Although it is in Norwegian, the images are self-explanatory and show how tour buses to the North Cape often have to follow closely behind one of these giant plows). Read More

Staples' Karagus: 'You Have to Be Yourself'
By James Lomuscio
One of the late baseball legend Yogi Berra's scratch-your-head witticisms was, "If you can't imitate him, don't try to copy him."
Interim Staples Principal Mark W. Karagus:"I've made a pretty good dent introducing myself," (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
That Yogi-ism could best apply to die-hard Yankees fan Mark W. Karagus, the interim principal who just finished up his first month at Westport's Staples High School.
"I'm a little bit different from John," Karagus says about his style compared to that of former principal John Dodig, the beloved administrator who retired in June after 11 years at the helm. "I don't want to copy his style. You have to be yourself. It's what I do."
Described as personable, if not garrulous, Karagus, 65, can be found mornings, greeting students in the school's lobby, but not standing center stage there like Dodig. He also makes sure to walk the halls, to visit the cafeteria, to chat with students.

Second Public Input Session Held on Super Search
By Dave Matlow
More than 40 persons gathered today in the Westport Town Hall auditorium for the second session to give public input into the search for a successor for retiring Superintendent of Schools Elliott Landon.
More than 40 persons, most from PTAs, attended today's session at Westport Town Hall. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Dave Matlow for WestportNow.com
John Chambers, an associate of Hazard, Young, Attea Associates, a Rosemont, Illinois-based search firm, led the session. It followed one attended by about 10 persons on Sept. 1 at Saugatuck Elementary School. (See WestportNow, Sept, 1, 2015)
Chambers, a former school superintendent at New York school systems in Byram Hill and Bronxville, said today's turnout was unusually large and contrasted with the much smaller attendance at the first session held in evening hours.
He said it was good that Landon gave a year notice, which he said allows for a thorough search for his replacement.

Forum Airs Qualities Sought in Next Schools Super

A fiscally responsible, digitally savvy, administrator willing to sit on the floor with elementary school children, and raise the district's academic bar even higher while adding diversity were among the qualities a dozen Westporters tonight said they want in the next schools superintendent.
Tonight's session at Saugatuck Elementary School drew about a dozen persons. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Phyllis Groner for WestportNow.com
For more than an hour, the small crowd that had gathered in the Saugatuck Elementary School auditorium shared concerns about the issues facing the Westport Public Schools—and the type of person best to lead as Schools Superintendent Elliott Landon retires at the end of this academic year after 17 years on the job.
It was the first of two community forums to be held by the Chicago-based search firm Hazard, Young, Attea (HYA) & Associates, hired by the school board. As second forum is scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 10 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the Town Hall auditorium
"Our process is really intense at this stage of information gathering," said John Chambers, HYA senior associate, adding that the forum's aim was "gathering information, gathering perspective from everyone who's willing to talk to us."

BOE: Whoa to $21.2 Million Staples Expansion
By James Lomuscio
Westport's Board of Education tonight found an architect's feasibility study to expand Staples High School by 36,320-square feet to the tune of $21.2 million to be more than they had expected.

Members seemed surprised by the proposal. They said they thought the $20,000 study they had commissioned would address different ways to accommodate Staples' swelling student population that is 100 students over capacity this fall—not full blown plans for a new building with a hefty price tag.
"The enrollment is the driver, and I'm just afraid that it's two steps further than where we are now," said board member Karen Klein.
"We need to fully vet all the other choices," she added, saying that things, such as modular classrooms, larger class size and course tradeoffs, should be part of the study, even though she is not in favor of them. "We need to do our due diligence before we get to that point."

Online Survey Aids in Schools Super Search
A community survey to help discern what Westporters want in a new school superintendent is now available at www.ecrasurvey.com/westport or can be linked to from the Westport Public Schools' home page, Board of Education Chairman Michael Gordon said today. The survey will remain open until Sept. 18.
Gordon also said that the first community forum on the search to replace Superintendent Elliott Landon, who is retiring after 17 years at the end of the 2015-16 academic year, is scheduled for Tuesda, from 7:30 to 9 p.m. in the Saugatuck Elementary School auditorium.
A second second forum is set for Thursday, Sept. 10 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. in the Town Hall auditorium.
Finding a replacement for Landon will also be the first item at tonight's Board of Education meeting, as the search firm Hazard, Young & Attea offers a presentation of the superintendent search process.

Scores Plunge as Students Take New Tougher Test
By Jacqueline Rabe Thomaswww.ctmirror.org
As expected, the standardized test scores parents are accustomed to seeing for their child's school have plunged as the state implements a harder test aligned with the controversial Common Core State Standards.
Scores released Friday for tests taken last school year show that 39 percent of Connecticut public school students were judged proficient on the state's math exam — a significant drop from 83 percent in 2013. In English, 55 percent of students were judged proficient last year — down from 81 percent in reading and 84 percent in writing in 2013.
State education officials weren't surprised. They have been warning the drop would happen, as it has in other states that switched to exams aligned with the Common Core.
The number of students electing not to take the state exams also rose last school year — a trend referred to as the "opt-out movement." Concern has grown among parents that their children are spending too much time in school being tested or being prepared for tests. [Westport had an 87.7 percent participation rate in English and 87.6 percent in math.]

BOE to Review $21.2M Staples Expansion Study
By James Lomuscio
Click here for PDF of study
A Westport Board of Education commissioned feasibility study to expand Staples High School by 36,000-square feet to the tune of $21.2 million to accommodate a swelling student population will go to the school board Monday night, Schools Superintendent Elliott Landon said today.

He said the $20,000 study was commissioned by the board in May and was done by Elmsford, N.Y.-based architects Fuller D'Angelo P.C., the same firm hired for the expansion of the 1958-built school transformed to 465,000 square feet in 2005 at a cost of $73 million. The feasibility study was presented to school board members today, Landon said.
The current building was designed for 1,800 students even though the administration had pushed for a building with a 2,000 capacity but had to cut back for budgetary reasons, Landon said. He had said earlier that this year's Staples enrollment was about 1,900 and that the school has been overcapacity for several years. (See WestportNow Aug. 24, 2015)
According to the report, Landon and school administrators favored the architects' Concept B, which would add 36,320-square feet to the current building. It includes 15 new classrooms for math, languages, computer engineering, robotics, health and physical education, lectures, dance, conference rooms, teacher work rooms, special education and cafeteria expansion, as well as infrastructure upgrades.

Fight For Me Song Lyrics
Ohh oh oh
Ohh oh oh ohh
Fight for me
Will you fight for me
Or lie to me and say you will
I know the game, I know the drill
I drag it out of bars and still
Its all Ive got
But thats alot so
Fight for me
Ohh oh oh
Fight for me
Please fight for me
Cant you see you
Do this to yourself
You are the hand that you've been built
The empty room where no ones left
To sing to
But you are the storm rising
Caught up into a real us
Balance in and all I want
to keep in what keeps on leaving
All this leave these memories fade away
Is it so wrong to want to be here with you (3x)
In the end
In the end
I just wanna be your friend
Ohh oh oh
Fight for me
Will you fight for me
Or lie to me and say, you will.

WiFi Safety Check, Changes To Hotmail and More – Tech Talk
Lots to talk about, and pretty important information to boot on this week's Tech Talk, so let's get to it, shall we?
Lots to talk about, and pretty important information to boot on this week's Tech Talk, so let's get to it, shall we?
There's a huge trend in American households these days. It's called cocooning. After you read what they mean by this, you may agree that you too are a member of this exclusive hibernating club
Social media is expanding and exploding by the day. It's almost impossible to keep up with all. The latest trend? Their own content. Ladies and gentlemen –you're about to enter YouTube Country.
Did you hear about this yet? This story will prove conclusively that you never mess with a musician!
Big TV news (and I mean that literally) is being unveiled in Las Vegas this week at the Consumer Electronics show. You wouldn't believe the size of this TV! Also, a great couple of apps for your hard working mothers out there (maybe I should rephrase that)
I'm on the fence on this one. I like the idea, but it kind of creeps me out. How would you feel about leaving your wallet or purse at home and just using your phone to pay for everything? Well, get ready because it's coming whether you like it or not.
Yesterday, Instagram announced that the company was changing their terms of service as of January 16, which would allow the company to sell the photos from their users. Social media users immediately went on a campaign to notify everyone they know and warn them if they did not want to lose the rights to their photographs or allow Instagram to profit off their photos that they should remove their photos and discontinue using the site.
A ton of tech news this week, so let's get to it, tekkies!
Computer on the "fritz"? Have you just given up the ghost and figured it's easier to just ask Santa for another one? Maybe a good idea, maybe unnecessary. Here's a place where you can find out
So last night, I had to remind the "Coupon Lady" that the many minions of people who follow her weekly will surely be wanting to see this weeks coupon blog. This exchange was overheard by my 14 year old, Andrew. He then said, "Hey Dad can I write an article for you?" Well when a 14 year old boy wants to volunteer to write an article, you have to let him right? So after I checked him for a fever he went to his room for a while and came up with his thoughts on an ever changing technological world.
There are times I've said to myself "I will not buy a new phone". Eventually I've had to eat my words. Now not only can you eat words but you can actually eat your iPhone case
It's made from brown rice and salt...
I want to develop a "Cute-o-Meter". You play a YouTube video into it and it rates it on the adorable scale. This one is going to pin the meter

The animated adventures of a small, pencil-drawn man.
Dang jerry hanged himself. Kinda sad you know. But thats life for you. Except the women stealing your money, sometimes.
See, Jerry? *That* is why you aren't supposed to open condoms with your teeth. XD
Regardless, this has been a favorite of mine for a long time.
It was well made, the animation was simple, yet effective. I rather liked how there is no dialogue in the entire film, and that's pretty much what kept me going despite the massive repetition of Jerry's daily events, which I found boring. I don't see why this is labeled under the humor section though. It seems more like a drama to me. A man has a horrible boring existence, that is essentially purgatory, and then he does something to change it and winds up in hell. That, if I'm not mistaken was the big punchline. A guys bad life gets worse.
The one part that I did find funny was when he was getting arrested, and he was performing admirably on the coordination tests. But, I still think that this would have been better with the absence of him suffering in hell.

Strong polyfunctional CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses directed against Rv0477c M.tb target peptides. PMBCs were obtained after BCG vaccination and tested by ICS for IFN-γ, TNF-α and IL-2 production in CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. First, cells were gated on site and forward scatter, followed by gating on CD3+ events and CD4+ versus CD8+ T-cells. Responding T-cells were first tested for IFN-γ production, followed by IL-2 versus TNF-α production in the IFN- γ + and IFN-γ - T cell populations. Controls included stimulation with medium or with PMA/ionomycin (data not shown).
