"We should be careful about how easy it is to put some of our most vulnerable residents in a situation outside the home," Kennedy said.
Kennedy also said the basic premise of the bill is that at-risk students are destined for a life of failure and crime, costing the state millions of dollars throughout their lifetimes.
He said the achievement gap is a significant concern, but there's little proof that early education would yield the savings that bill sponsors claim despite putting increased pressure on the state's management of the public education system.
He said he would prefer the state focus on the family challenges that lead to low-income students falling behind in school and look for ways to strengthen Utah's homes.
"I'd like to see some support for these parents," Kennedy said.
Another concern raised against the bill is inconsistent data regarding the lasting efficacy of early childhood education. Some studies suggest what is known as a "fade out," in that students see early gains upon entering public school, but the demographic realities that made them at-risk to begin with pull them back below grade level over time.
Bill Crim, senior vice president of the United Way of Salt Lake, acknowledged the potential for a "fade out," but he added that those same studies show the benefits of early education.
"Poverty doesn't go away," he said. "We have to think about addressing those problems all along the way in order to see positive student outcomes."
Crim also said that while there could appear to be conflicting reports on the efficacy of preschool programs, there is also a disparity of quality among the programs themselves.
"There's an enormous body of research about the positive and lasting effects of high-quality preschool," he said. "But not every preschool is high-quality."
The "elegance" of Hughes' bill, Crim said, is that it would only require the state to reimburse high-quality programs. By establishing a model that leverages taxpayer dollars only in the event of success, the bill creates a common measure for determining student preparation.
"It makes it very simple to say programs that get students ready for school are high-quality," Crim said. "Whether or not they use special remediation throughout their school career is really all you have to look at."
Crim said that while the floor debate on the bill was long, it also reflected a high level of awareness and knowledge among legislators. He said there were some concerns raised based on a misunderstanding of the voluntary nature of the preschool programs, but the discussion largely focused on the potential cost savings for the state of Utah.
"We can pay for the intervention privately up front and do it in a way where we only reimburse as a state if it saves us much, much more money down the road," he said.
Hughes emphasized that his bill does not make the state responsible for the education of young children. He said the state only becomes involved through reimbursement, when students have entered public schools and are successfully avoiding what would be far greater costs associated with special education.
"If you're worrried about government intervention, or government involvement in 3- and 4-year-olds, then you love my bill," he said, "because my bill in fact does not spend any public dollars educating these children."
Hughes said he appreciated the lengthy debate in the House and the questions raised by his colleagues. He said there has been some misunderstanding surrounding his bill, and, in order to be successful, those questions need to be raised and addressed.

2005 Kia Sedona ProblemsStarting difficulty due to defective anti-theft control module
A defective AC compressor clutch assembly can cause excessive noise or vibration when the air conditioning is on. Improved parts are available. Replacing the faulty clutch assembly does not necessitate replacement of the complete AC compressor or evacuation and recharging of the air conditioning system.
If the engine is excessively noisy on startup (after the engine has been off for several hours) and the noise lasts more than four or five seconds, turn off the engine and check for correct engine oil level. If the oil level is correct, the noise may be caused by the timing chain tensioner. Kia released an updated timing chain tensioner to solve this problem.

2005 Kia Sedona RecallsGas Pedal May Stick in Freezing Conditions
In freezing conditions, water on the throttle cable may freeze, creating resistance to movement. The cable may stick and prevent the engine from returning to idle, causing the vehicle to maintain speed or accelerate. This can occur without warning and could cause a crash. Dealers will modify a protective sleeve around the cable to fix the issue. The recall began August 15, 2005. The Kia recall number is SC-051.
On certain models equipped with alloy wheels, water may accumulate around the rear hub caps and damage the outer rear wheel bearings. The wheel bearings could fail without warning, which could result in a crash. Dealers will replace the rear hub caps and replace the rear outer bearings and/or hub assembly as needed. The recall began on June 13, 2005. The Kia recall number is SC-049.

Well gang, Halloween is going into overtime! Today's drawing is of The Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus!
Love it or hate it, Hocus Pocus is a Halloween staple! I've loved it since I was a kid, and my wife and I watch it every year! Winifred, Sarah, and Mary Sanderson are my three favorite witches by far!
More spooky scary drawings soon!
Today's Halloween drawing is of Slimer from Ghostbusters.
Slimer was kind of the Snoopy of the GB universe. He got a lot of attention (in the cartoon, at least) and overshadowed everything else. I know it was a show for kids, but what makes GB fun is the relationship the guys have with each other. Even Scooby Doo never took away from the other characters, and the show was named after him!
I'm selling this drawing for $25 with free shipping! Email me at email@example.com if you're interested!
Todays Halloween drawing is of Yuri Kozukata from Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water.
It's not a perfect game, but Maiden of Black Water has that scary atmosphere the series is known for. In an era where survival horror is more funny than scary, it's a breath of fresh air!
Yesterday was Back to The Future day! In honor of one of my favorite movies of all time, I drew Marty McFly as seen in the year 2015! I know he's not Halloween themed, but it's my list and I can do whatever I want!
BTTF meant so much to me as a kid, and maybe even more today! With how much fanfare October 21st received yesterday (the day in which Doc and Marty traveled to 2015), it's clear that it means a lot to many people.
I'm selling this original hand-made drawing for $25. If interested, drop me a line at email@example.com!
More drawings to come!
Today's Halloween drawing is totally original! I call it Heads because, well, it's a bunch of heads.
I don't want to say much about my process with this, because I feel like it would spoil the piece a little. Knowing why I drew it won't help you appreciate it more (probably), and you can lend your own interpretation to it. If you want to know, however, post in the comments!
This original hand-drawn piece is on 8.5×11 bristol paper and is a one-of-a-kind item.I'm offering it up for sale for $40.00 with free shipping! If interested, please email me at email@example.com!
Happy Back to The Future Day, friends! I'll see you all tomorrow!

Binks pioneered the development of liquid spray finishing technology over 100 years ago and continues to set the standard for industrial spray finishing.
The Binks of today started in the basement of Marshall Field & Company in 1892, when Joseph Binks figured out how to spray the walls instead of brushing them, and saved a lot of time. Soon he used his invention to rescue the opening of the 1893 Columbian Exposition: Just days before the opening, nine of ten exhibit buildings stood unpainted, but Binks saved the day.
Just before the 1920s, Binks introduced its first hand spray gun. Binks introduced its popular Mach I spray gun in 1989. The Mach I spray gun is used to apply coatings to the heat shield tiles on NASA's space shuttle. Binks was acquired by Illinois Tool Works in 1998 and became part of the ITW Industrial Finishing business unit. Since 1890, when Binks introduced the first cold water airless paint spraying machine, Binks has provided the world with superior spray finishing technology.
Today, you can find Binks spray finishing technology at work in virtually every industry around the world. Binks extensive product line include fluid handling tanks, material handling pumps, air and fluid controls, siphon and pressure spray gun cups, air and fluid hoses and connections, and a wide range of spray guns. Available guns include: HVLP spray guns, conventional spray guns, air assist and airless spray guns, and line striping spray guns. Binks also provides pressure tank liners, Prospector paint strainers, pressure cups, respirators, booth filters, and booth coat products.

The Amazon is a vast and majestic rainforest teeming with an estimated quarter of all known land species. The jaguar, the pink river dolphin, the sloth, the world's largest flower, a monkey the size of a toothbrush and a spider the size of a baseball are just a few of the species that we know about - there are many more yet to be discovered.
It is also home to over 20 million people including hundreds of indigenous peoples, some of which have never been contacted by the 'outside world'.
And finally, the Amazon stores 80 to 120 billion tonnes of carbon, helping to stabilise the planet's climate.

Rainier raises the bar
Friday, September 26, 2003
Buick Rainier offers a quiet, comfortable ride
Several months ago, after test driving a new Buick Rendezvous, I had this to say: "Upscale, good looking and comfortable -- that's always been my impression of a Buick." I went on to describe the competent, comfortable Rendezvous and added, "... I've not been in [an SUV] that delivers a better ride or has more comfortable seats."
Well, guess what? Buick has raised the bar again, and like last time, they've given it a name that's hard to pronounce, and hard to spell. Named after the mountain that dominates the Seattle, Wash., landscape, this vehicle's name rhymes with the little fellows who pull Santa's sleigh. It's the Rainier, and unlike its sister vehicle with the longer name, this is a truck-based SUV, sitting on a frame borrowed from the Chevy Trailblazer and the GMC Envoy. But the frame is where its similarity to a truck ends.
When I picked up the beautiful 2004 crimson pearl metallic Rainier CKL at Van Matre Buick last week and pulled out onto South Kingshighway I knew immediately I was driving something very special. There was an eerie silence. A heavy truck roared past me, but I hardly heard a thing. It was like the sensation you have when your ears are plugged. As I drove toward the interstate I braced for the upcoming bumpy, concrete section of road. But the bumps nearly vanished. It was like riding in a Buick Park Avenue! "So this is what happens when you put Buick's famous ride technology in an SUV," I thought.
After picking up three other guys -- Bob, Ken and Larry -- I moved to the comfortable leather back seat and began to examine the sales literature and take notes. "I think they are going to sell a ton of these," Ken said. "This is one for the real world of driving. Everything in the interior is rounded, so you can rest your legs against things without pain." The literature said the excellent ride can be attributed to the electronically-controlled air suspension. It is so sophisticated that the air springs are continually monitored by sensors that feed data to a compressor which inflates or deflates them according to varying load and road conditions. Made of rubber, the air springs naturally retard noise traveling from the axle up into the frame and into the cabin. The front suspension features coil springs over Bilstein shock absorbers, to provide touring car precision with SUV toughness.
Larry, a retired SIU design professor, who drives a GMC Yukon SUV, was also impressed. He's shopping for a replacement SUV, and high on his list are a BMW X5 and an Acura MDX, which have both received rave reviews. "This is remarkable," he said. "I wasn't even interested in seeing it because I thought I knew what GM had to offer. But it has won me over." He told me the Rainier is quieter and has a better ride than both the BMW and the Acura, and its performance is comparable to the 6-cylinder engines in those vehicles. He felt the BMW had a slight edge in emergency handling, but that may be attributable to the tires on the Rainier.
Tires rolling over pavement can create a lot of noise, so Buick selected quiet riding 17-inch tires with a special tread pattern. In addition, Rainier is equipped with special acoustic glass -- essentially two layers of glass with a thin film of plastic laminated in between, as well as glass layers of different thickness, that help block sound from entering the passenger compartment. Finally, there are strategically positioned acoustic absorbers and seals in the doors and body panels to help block outside noise.
The all-wheel drive system is just as sophisticated. The driver doesn't have to think about pushing buttons or pulling levers. If the system senses wheel spin, it reacts in _ of a second and sends the right amount of power to the wheel or wheels with the most traction. Under normal conditions, when the vehicle is moving at less than 20 mph, Rainier's system sends 100 percent of the power to the rear wheels. Above 20 mph, a small amount of power is sent to the front wheels, even when no slippage is detected, allowing for up to 100 percent of torque to be transferred to the front axles during a slip condition. On Bob's farm, I drove the test vehicle in a tight circle on the gravel driveway and there wasn't a hint of wheel chatter or skidding. Then we took the Rainier to a steep, grass-covered levee. We tried everything to get stuck, including coming to a complete stop halfway up the levy. The all-wheel drive system would spin its rear tires for just a moment, and then, as advertised, the front tires would dig in and up the hill we would go. Very impressive.
There are many other Rainier innovations and comfort features to tell you about if space permitted, but you can go see them for yourself. I will add that the Rainier should get about 15 miles per gallon in the city and 21 on the highway when equipped with the 275 horsepower in-line 6 cylinder, 4.2 liter engine and 4 speed automatic transmission, and it can also tow a hefty 5,600 pounds in that configuration. A V-8 engine will be available soon.

Falls School Board still considering HRA options
Members mull how and how much rollovers can be used
Menomonee Falls - The Menomonee Falls School Board continues to examine the impact of allowing the full rollover of unused 2013 Health Reimbursement Arrangement funds to the 2014 plan year, as recommended by staff.
HR Generalist and Systems Manager Sherry Jaeck presented the board on Monday with three scenarios demonstrating how HRA funds for an employee with a single plan could be rolled over and used from year to year.
The scenarios were based upon the district's highest deductible plan, the one the majority of employees have chosen, which has a $2,000 annual deductible for a single plan, with a $1,000 HRA component, and $4,000 annual deductible for a family plan, with a $2,000 HRA component.
For example, Jaeck explained, if a person with a single plan incurred $1,200 in medical expenses for a broken arm, they would pay the first $1,000 and the remaining $200 would come from their HRA funds. If that person only received preventive care for the rest of the year, they would carry into the next year their $800 HRA balance, which could be applied to their health insurance premium or co-pays, for example, depending on the plan design for next year, Jaeck said.
The district has yet to determine what specifically rolled over HRA funds could be used for or how plan designs would be modified next year or in future years.
One way the existing high-deductible plan could be modified, as shown in one of the scenarios presented, would be to include a 20 percent coinsurance, to a maximum of $1,000. Such a plan would save the district money and would also be cheaper for the employee, Jaeck said.
The board did not take any action last week [Feb. 11]. If the rollover of HRA funds is approved, the most that could be rolled over from year to year would be three times the annual district contribution, or $3,000 for the highest deductible single plan. Once that cap is reached, the district would no longer contribute additional HRA funds until the balance fell below that level.

CLOVERDALE -- "It was just one of those games where we just plugged away," stated Cloverdale Head Coach Bruce Cook after his ballclub soundly defeated visting Riverton Parke Tuesday evening 51-29.
After an impressive run to open the contest, the Clovers relaxed a bit, allowing the Panthers to close to 11-10 early in the second quarter. Cloverdale, however, finished the opening half on an 12-0 run, putting the ballgame out of reach.
The Clovers continued their dominance in the third quarter, outscoring Riverton Parke 17-7 to take a 40-17 lead entering the final stanza.
The fourth quarter saw the Clovers utilizing dribble penetration and drawing fouls, effectively limiting the Panthers ability to D-up as Riverton's Amy Wheeler and Makenzie Haltom both fouled out. Cloverdale onceagain struggled at the line, converting on only 8-17 attempts, but on this night, it was not a factor in the outcome.
Cook was quick to point out that Ashley Koosman was key to his team's performance: "Ashley's put together three good games in a row for us, and she stepped in for Kristen (Schroer) tonight in a new position and did a nice job for us." Schroer was sidelined in the county tournament with a broken ankle. Cook stated that Schroer had successful surgery on the injured ankle, which included the insertion of stabilizing pins. Her return for the 2007-2008 campaign is doubtful.
Cloverdale was able to utilize much of its bench in the fourth quarter, and was outscored by Riverton Parke 12-11 for the final tally of 51-23. The Clovers were led by Koosman's 14 points. Kristin McCammon finished with 13. The Panthers were paced by Chelsy Riggens' 14, which included going 8-15 from the stripe.
Cook was clearly already preparing for his upcoming schedule at the game's conclusion: "We're going to get to work on Eminence and Greencastle; they're both dangerous ballclubs."
Cloverdale also claimed the JV contest, coming out on top 29-12. The Clovers' leading scorer was Breegan andersen, who netted 12 points.
At Cloverdale
Riverton Parke 4 6 7 12 -- 29
Cloverdale 10 13 17 11 -- 51
Riverton Parke -- Riggen 14, Edington 4, Mathas 4, Byers 3, Gosset 2, Wheeler 2
Cloverdale -- Koosman 14, McCammon 13, Cheatham 7, Skiles 6, Franklin 5, Haltom 4, Langdon 2

Pilots are the cowboys of the air, roaming the wide-open skies and herding children's runaway balloons. Giddy up, up, and away with this Groupon.
$199 for a Pilot-for-a-Day Experience ($460 Value)
For 60–90 minutes, an instructor leads students through ground instruction, which gives a synopsis of a pilot's duties and shows them how to handle calculations, determine fuel needs, and understand navigation systems. For the next 45 minutes, the pupils start the engine and take to the skies, twisting and turning until it is time to land.
International Pilot Academy
As a boy growing up in Beirut, Jules Selwan often dreamed of starting up the engines on a commercial plane and soaring above the coastal city. After obtaining his flight license, the pilot began to explore beyond his native country, landing at Carp Airport. In roaring Piper and Cessna aircraft, Selwan and his crew provide instruction in a range of areas and levels, including courses that culminate in recreational pilot permits or private pilot licenses. Students often travel from around the globe, and courses are available in English, French, German, Arabic, and Spanish, allowing new pilots to read all of the secret messages painted on peoples' rooftops.

Next Iron Chef Exit Interview: For Chef Pagan, An "Amazing Ride"by FN Dish Editor in Shows, October 11th, 2010
FN Dish: What did you take away from the experience of competing on The Next Iron Chef?
Mario Pagan: Competing in The Next Iron Chef has been the most amazing and exciting highlight of my career! It's an honor to have been picked as one of the ten best chefs in the United States. Being amongst so many talented chefs is an opportunity that is hard to come by.
Dish: How did you feel about the meatloaf and potatoes dish that sent you home when you presented it?
M.P.: I felt that having been given the most labor-intensive dish, I did a good job.
Dish: If you could have a do-over, what would you change about that fateful dish?
M.P.: If I had to do it all over again, I have to say that I should have used arrowroot instead of cornstarch to thicken my sauce.
Dish: What advice would you give future Next Iron Chef contestants?
M.P.: The best advice that I can give is to make sure to pick your proteins first and then set up your "mise en place" for your planned dish. Ask for the remaining time in the battle at all times. But, until you're there, you'll never understand the overwhelming feeling of being in that kitchen. What an amazing ride! Stay and cook strong!

text: Photos Du Jour: Serena Vs Maria A packed crowd was on hand at Roland Garros to witness two of the all-time greats squaring off for the French Open title. Maria Sharapova started fast - but Serena Williams finished faster. Published June 08, 2013 12:00 The Top 2 players in the world stepped out in the French Open final for the first time since 1995. That year, the No.2 stepped up and beat the No.1 - and Maria Sharapova was having that kind of day. Sharapova came out like a house on fire, holding, breaking then building a 40-15 lead serving at 2-0. Having completed her Career Grand Slam at Roland Garros a year before, she was a crowd favorite. But that service game turned on a dime, as Serena Williams broke back and then held serve for 2-2. The match was incredibly competitive, but in the end Williams was just too good, ending it on an ace. After a very tight 64 64 victory - it lasted an hour and 46 minutes - Williams dropped to the court. Williams' huge ace up the T on match point was her 10th ace of the match. She had no double faults. Williams also finished the match with 29 winners to 21 unforced - Sharapova ended with 10 to 17. Williams converted four of a whopping 15 break point chances in the match, Sharapova two for two. Williams has now also beaten Sharapova 13 times in a row - she is 14-2 overall in their head-to-head. Arantxa Sánchez-Vicario, a three-time champion at the French Open, presented Williams with her trophy. Williams has now won 31 matches in a row - the third-longest winning streak of the new millennium. Williams wasn't the only one speaking French this year - Sharapova threw in a merci beaucoup. The Williams camp looked on as the World No.1 collected her second French Open and 16th Grand Slam. Williams now has five Australian Opens, two French Opens, five Wimbledons and four US Opens. Williams headed into Paris for the traditional champion's photo shoot in front of the Eiffel Tower. The shoot was perfectly timed with the sparkling of the Eiffel Tower, which happens on the hour. Williams' mother, Oracene Price, also took her turn in the photo shoot on Saturday evening. Williams is now 91-4 since the start of last April. Can anyone stop the World No.1 at Wimbledon?
