National FFA Organization Records, 1916-2008
The National FFA Organization, originally called the Future Farmers of America, was founded in 1928 as a national organization for boys in rural, farming communities. Its original purpose, the education of youth in agricultural fields of study, is still recognized through its current programs. Today, the mission of the National FFA Organization is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education. Through educational programs the FFA teaches students how to become active in their communities and successful in their occupation. FFA membership includes junior high, high school, and college students and totals approximately 450,000.

Historical Timeline
The Smith-Hughes National Vocational Education Act establishes vocational agriculture courses.
Virginia Tech agricultural education teacher educators Henry Groseclose, Harry Sanders, Walter Newman, and Edmund Magill organize the Future Farmers of Virginia for boys in agriculture classes. The Future Farmers of Virginia would later serve as the model for the Future Farmers of America.
New Farmers of America, an organization for African-American boys interested in agriculture, is formed in Virginia. It, like the FFA, was sponsored by the United States Office of Education and paralleled the FFA's programs and activities to the point that they offered many of the same programs under different names. In 1965, the NFA merged into the FFA and ceased to exist.
The American Royal Livestock Show invites vocational agriculture students to participate in National Livestock Judging Contests in Kansas City, Missouri.
During the National Livestock Judging Contests, 33 students from 18 states establish the Future Farmers of America to provide leadership training for farm boys. During this first annual convention, Leslie Applegate is elected president and dues are set at 10 cents annually. The National Convention was held in Kansas City 1928-1998.
At the 3rd National Convention, the issue of membership was clarified when the constitution was amended restricting membership to boys only under Article III, Section B. Girls were restricted to activities at the state and local levels in the years following this decision.
The official creed and colors - national blue and corn gold - are adopted. The creed, written by E. M. Tiffany, has been amended three times but still retains its original basic tenants.
Fredericktown, Ohio, FFA members arrive at the National Convention in blue corduroy jackets with the FFA emblem on the back. Official delegates vote to adopt the jacket as the organization's official dress. Members still wear the nationally-recognized jackets today, honoring the tradition and history of the FFA.
Members across the country celebrate the first national FFA Day. In 1948 this celebration would be changed to FFA Week and celebrated during George Washington's birthday to recognize his pioneering contributions to American agriculture.
The National FFA Foundation, Inc. was established in Washington D.C., to raise money for FFA programs and activities from business, industry, government, individuals, and foundation sponsors. Today, the foundation is located in Indianapolis, Indiana, and raises more than $7.3 million annually.
FFA members participate in the organization's first international exchange program with the Young Farmers Club of Great Britain. This exchange launched a major international program that included internships for students and the establishment of future farmer organizations worldwide. By 1996, the FFA would send more than 350 students to more than 25 countries annually.
The U.S. Congress passes Public Law 81-740, which grants the FFA a Federal Charter and stipulates that a U.S. Department of Education staff member be the National FFA Advisor. Today the FFA continues to be recognized by Congress as an intra-curricular part of the educational program.
The FFA headquarters is established in Alexandria, Virginia, on land which was part of George Washington's estate. The FFA had owned the land since 1939 and used it as a national camp.
The New Farmers of America, the organization for African-American agricultural students, merges with the FFA, adding 50,000 members.
The FFA National Agricultural Career Show, a trade show especially for students, exposes National Convention attendees to educational and career opportunities in agriculture. By 1999, 350 exhibitors participate annually in the event.
Women are allowed national membership making it possible for them to hold office and participate in competitive events at the regional and national level. Prior to this amendment women were permitted membership only at the local and state level. Today, 34% of FFA membership is female, while more than 50% of state leadership positions are held by women.

Organizational Structure
The mission of the National FFA Organization is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education. Through educational programs, the FFA teaches students how to become active in their communities and successful in their occupation. Emphasizing agricultural education the FFA demonstrates its ideals through the FFA Creed. The creed represents the beliefs all members of the organization are to hold. FFA membership includes junior high, high school, and college students.
The FFA is organized in such a way that promotes active participation by members. First and foremost the FFA is a student organization that actively seeks to educate students in agricultural fields of study. Six students are elected annually to serve as the National FFA Officers. These students are leaders and serve as representatives of the organization's membership. The FFA was originally set up as an organization to be administered directly by the elected student representatives. Adult advisors were elected by the students and served only as advisors to the governing body of student officers called the Board of Trustees. The constitution made no mention of any other form of administration. However, the expansion of the scope and programming of the FFA involved a great deal of financial and legal responsibility that minors could not effectively manage. The strong ties to the state and national government and with school boards further complicated the issue. After careful study of the problem, it was decided in1931 that an Advisory Council be created to oversee the activities of the National Student Officers and the positions of National Advisor and Executive Secretary to be positions filled by employees of the U.S. Office of Education rather than by elected officials. Other members of the Council included state officers in agricultural education. Originally, the Advisory Council had veto power over the students' decisions, but not a vote. Their job was to observe and make recommendations to the students that helped them stay focused. The Advisory Council also took responsibility for following the policies set forth by the national constitution.
The Advisory Council acted as consultants to the student board until 1950 when the FFA was federally chartered. At this point the duties and responsibilities of the students and adults shifted. The Advisory Council was renamed the Board of Directors and became the official governing body of the national organization. The Board of Trustees was renamed the Board of Student Officers. According to the charter, the official duties of the students were to advise and make recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to the conduct of activities and business of the corporation. The national student officers had the right to participate in the board meetings as voting members, but no longer were the sole authority. They made motions to the board which were sustained by an adult member and participated actively in those meetings. After the charter, the Board began to meet three times annually. When the board is not in session, a governing committee composed of the board chairman (National FFA Advisor) and two members of the chairman's staff, has the authority of the board to make decisions that require immediate attention. The board continues to operate in this manner.
The development of leadership skills in members is an important aspect of the educational programs sponsored by the FFA. Leadership is encouraged through the election of student officers at the chapter, state, and national levels; participation in leadership conferences; international experience; and award programs that emphasize skill and leadership abilities. Degrees earned recognize the increasing accomplishments of members at the local and state levels culminating in the American FFA Degree at the national level. The FFA's programs are highlighted at the National FFA Convention through the presentation of awards and demonstrations of skill in chosen fields of study.
The National Convention is an annual event held by the organization. The main functions of the convention are the presentation of awards and the conducting of organizational business. FFA members are represented at the business sessions by delegates from each state. These delegates are selected by the state organization and are given the authority to vote on matters affecting the organization. Each state is allowed at least two delegates and may send more based on the size of the state association. The business session of the convention is run by the student officers and operates by the rules of parliamentary procedure. Delegates are divided into committees that discuss relevant issues and report their recommendations to the convention. These items are discussed and voted on by the entire group. All changes to the constitution must be ratified by the delegates and approved by the Board of Directors. Since the Board bears legal responsibility over the actions of the organization, it has the power of veto on all actions approved by the convention delegates. The convention delegates also elect the national officers based on the candidates who meet the qualifications and are approved by the board.
The administration of the FFA is carried out at the National FFA Headquarters, the policy making branch, and the National FFA Center, the implementation branch. Originally, the small staff of the organization allowed the center of operations to be housed in the U.S. Office of Education with the National Advisor and Executive Secretary. As the organization began to grow and the Office of Education realized the need for the FFA to operate separate from the government office, a plan for a national center developed. In 1959, the National FFA Center in Alexandria, Virginia, was dedicated and the FFA operations moved to the center.
Currently, the National FFA Headquarters is located in Alexandria, Virginia, and has a direct connection to the U.S. Department of Education. Three main purposes direct the activities of the National Headquarters: 1) to provide strategic direction, 2) fulfill certain legal requirements, and 3) to develop and oversee policy. The personnel at the headquarters responsible for carrying out these duties are the National Advisor and the Executive Secretary (See Appendix A for a complete listing of the leaders.). The National Advisor is the chief administrator of the FFA and the National FFA Foundation. Responsibilities of the National Advisor include chairing the FFA Board of Directors and the Foundation Board of Trustees; supporting and guiding the organization; advising student officers; and reviewing individually all applications for the American FFA Degree. The Executive Secretary arranges all board meetings; plans and oversees the arrangements for the National Convention; keeps records of the corporation, boards, national officers, and convention delegates; issues charters to state associations; and assists the advisor in the guidance and policy development of the organization.
The National FFA Center, relocated to Indianapolis, Indiana in 1997, is responsible for the program development and implementation for the organization. Divided into ten teams and administered by the Chief Operating Officer, it is the main resource for events and information about the organization. All marketing, distribution, and student services originate at the center. The Alumni Association and the National FFA Foundation also operate from the National FFA Center.

The records of the National FFA Organization contain extensive documentation of the organization, its programs and activities, and its leadership. Although the administrative records contain scattered internal information related to National Advisors and Executive Secretaries, the minutes of the Board of Directors is complete. Other highlights in the collection include the records of the international programs documenting the growth of student exchange programs and future farmer organizations in other countries; public relations activities that include press releases, calendars, and FFA Week materials; and National Conventions that contain a complete set of proceedings from 1928-1998, press releases about award winners, and scripts of pageants performed at the conventions. A sense of rural America is fostered through radio program scripts from the 1930s and 1940s and a massive collection of photographs documenting the growth and changes in rural agriculture in the United States from the late 1920s to the present, national award winners in FFA contests, National Student Officers, and adult leaders in the organization.
Board of Directors Records, 1928-2005, consist of the newsletter, Board Issues, board minutes and index, and correspondence. Board Issues is sent to members involved with the Board of Directors, the Board of National Student Officers, and the Foundation Board of Trustees. It discusses issues from the meetings that directly affect the national organization. A complete set of the Board minutes, 1928-1996, document all major decisions within the National FFA Organization. For Board minutes prior to 1957 there is an index available arranged by topic. For more in depth information there are scattered committee reports located within this series. Further information about the board and the decisions made by the student membership can be found in the National FFA Convention proceedings located in the National Convention records.
National Officer Records, 1928-2004, consist of correspondence, biographies, and press releases. These records document the activities of the six national officers elected annually. The early files, 1928-1964, contain correspondence to and from the officers and fully document their activities during their terms. Biographical information for these years can be found in press releases about the new officers and their outstanding accomplishments. Later files contain less correspondence and more direct biographical information. The Goodwill Tour Booklets are a mostly complete set, 1967-2000, of biographical information about each of the national officers. The Goodwill Tour is a nation-wide trip by the national officers to thank supporters of the organization.
Administration Records, 1928-2008, contain correspondence, articles, publications, audits, and reports. The administration files are divided into two main groups: administrative officers and office files. The administrative officer files are the records of the National Advisors, Executive Secretaries, and other important officials who serve the National FFA Organization. These files contain information about trips, responsibilities, and problems occurring during their tenure. The records in this series can also be used to find information regarding important people, events, and programs within the national organization. The records of only two of the Executive Secretaries, William A. Ross and William Paul Gray, are found in this collection. A combination of the Executive Secretary, National Advisor, and other officers' records gives the researcher an overview of all major developments of the organization. The most extensive documentation is found in the files of E.J. Johnson, a program officer during the 1940s-1960s, and William Paul Gray. Executive Secretary William Arthur Ross's files contain important information regarding the early organization and how its programs developed. An important section to review is the memos written by Ross to his supervisor reporting on his activities. This ten year run of records, 1929-1939, contains an index organized by date and title.
The second group of records is the office files. These records deal with how the whole organization operates rather than just the officers. Contained in this series are the most complete financial and policy records as well as important legal battles that affected the way the FFA operates. The National FFA Constitution and Federal Charter can be found with these records.
State Association Records, 1919-1998, consist of newsletters, correspondence, annual reports, written histories, state charters, and articles about the activities of the state FFA associations. The records are arranged alphabetically by state. The strength of these records are the information about state organizations and activities prior to 1960. Another important state activity was the creation of scrapbooks. The scrapbooks were submitted to the national organization by each state as a part of a national contest between the states and accurately demonstrate the activities of the chapters within the state associations. The scrapbooks of Illinois and Nebraska are retained as a representative sampling. The annual reports submitted in 1987-1990 are individual reports collected from each state. The reports prior to 1960 are based on individual state reports, but are compiled into one large, national report on the states. The records include all fifty states plus Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. These records do not fully document the histories of the state organizations, but provide insights into how the national and state organizations interacted and how early state associations operated.
History Records, 1916-2003, contain biographies, histories, news clippings, and press releases important to the history of the national organization. These records are organized by subject and name and arranged alphabetically. These records are a quick source for biographical data on important leaders and background information on the traditions and movements of the organization. The series offers a large variety of both current and historical names and events associated with the organization. Information about national officers is not located in these records, but is found in the National Officer Records series.
National Convention Records, 1925-2008, consist of correspondence, programs, proceedings, press releases, and other materials related to the National FFA Conventions. The series is arranged chronologically starting with some records that predate the formation of the FFA but are related the National Congress of Vocational Agricultural Students, predecessor of the National FFA Convention. The Agricultural Career Show records are also included. The Career Show, similar to a job fair, is held annually in conjunction with the National Convention. The records consist mainly of informational packets about the Career Show each year. Each convention produces similar types of records that are organized under three main headings: clippings, printed materials, and scrapbooks.
The clippings section contains newspaper and magazine articles mainly from the Kansas City, Missouri area related to the events at the conventions.
The printed materials section contains all of the programs, proceedings, and booklets that are produced for the convention. This collection contains a complete set of convention proceedings that are informative because they document every important event at the convention. Retiring officer addresses, minutes of the business sessions, awards information, and, in the early years, the four public speeches were all printed in the proceedings.
The final section is the scrapbooks that contains press releases, correspondence, and informational hand-outs. The scrapbooks also contain information about awards, general information such as convention summaries and highlights, scripts, and speeches. Other information about the awards given at the convention can be found in the Foundation Series under awards, in the State Records, and in the Awards Series.
Award Records, 1926-2005, consist of handbooks, award books, award entries, and correspondence. These records deal largely with contest descriptions, proposals, correspondence related to the founding of a contest, and published materials about the awards. The best place to find a list of award winners is at the end of this series under Winners-Compiled List for the years up to 1976. Some information about specific winners can be found in the winner booklets, but complete lists of winners from every contest is published in the proceedings of the National Convention each year and in the Convention news releases, located in the National Convention Records. Further information can also be found with the National Foundation Records. These records include yearly lists of foundation award winners in the foundation annual reports, booklets about the award given by the foundation, and award allotments books. This series is arranged alphabetically by the name of the award. In many cases, names of awards have changed and the records are generally filed under the current name with a notation of the earlier name.
Program Records, 1926-2007, consist of correspondence, newsletters, brochures, radio scripts, other public relations material, and publications. This section contains the records for the programs initiated by the National FFA Organization at the chapter, state, national, and international level. Important features of this series include international files, the Building Our American Communities (BOAC) files, leadership files, and the public relations records. The international files include the organization's correspondence with foreign countries relating to agricultural exchange programs for FFA members and relating to the formation of foreign future farmer organizations such as the Future Farmers of Japan and the Future Farmers of the Philippines. The Building Our American Communities Program (BOAC) began in 1971 as a way to foster community development through FFA partnerships with local community groups. National winners were recognized and awarded at the National Convention. The BOAC files include information about the program as well as the winners of the awards. The public relations files contain the official FFA Calendars, FFA Week publicity, and radio scripts from the 1930s-1940s. These records contain phenomenal information about the programs the FFA uses, past and present, to foster public awareness. Other items in this series include World War II programs that were designed to help win the war on the home front, career recruitment, FFA recruitment, and other programs designed to involve the community and elementary-aged children with the activities of the FFA.
Publications, 1928-2008, consist of handbooks, manuals, newsletters, articles, books, theses and research studies published by and about the FFA. The FFA's national magazine, New Horizons, previously titled The National Future Farmer, is individually catalogued (call number S1.F97) and located in Special Collections and Archives. It also available online at https://archives.iupui.edu/handle/2450/2473. Other magazines related to agricultural education and the FFA includes American Farm Youth (call number), Agricultural Education (call number), and the Agricultural Educators Directory (call number).
There are two different types of newsletters in this series: advisor and general. The advisor newsletter is called FFA Advisors Making a Difference. Prior to 1992 this newsletter was called Between Issues. Originally the Between Issues newsletter was sent out between issues of the National Future Farmer. It contained information about important events and activities. The newsletter gradually evolved into an advisor's newsletter containing ideas and teaching tools. The general newsletter, called Update, is a monthly informational newsletter about the FFA sent to members, advisors, government officials, and anyone involved or interested in the events and activities of the organization. This monthly newsletter is a reminder of upcoming events sent monthly.
The FFA publishes an annual FFA Manual for its members, reflecting changes in the structure and procedures used by the organization. The set of manuals in this collection is incomplete until 1961. The handbooks are published for students, teachers, and officers in the organization. They explain specific roles in the organization that a person may fill whether that be a national officer, a chapter reporter, or an FFA advisor.
The articles and magazines located in this series are published by other groups. These articles have special FFA features and include anniversary celebrations and special recognition for the organization. Time, Newsweek, and Farm Journal are among the magazines.
Alumni Association Records, 1969-2003, include meeting minutes, reports, newsletters, and publications. The main function of the Alumni Association is to support the programs of the National FFA Organization. The Alumni Association holds an annual convention, provides scholarships to FFA members, and raises awareness for agricultural education through auctions and other promotional activities. A complete set of the Alumni Council minutes, 1970-1995, and its membership lists explain how the governing body works. The newsletter, 1972-1995, is the best source for documenting their activities. Also included with these records are the National FFA Center Affiliate Records, 1972-1980, which consist of minutes, membership lists, activity records, and a constitution. The FFA Center Affiliate was created solely for the involvement of the National FFA Center staff.
National FFA Foundation Records, 1944-2005, consist of annual reports, audits, board minutes, donor lists, short histories, budget information, and papers documenting the foundation's incorporation. The foundation was formed in 1944 to raise money for the National FFA Organization and to fund awards to its members. The annual reports are a good source of information about foundation donors and award winners. All but three (1970, 1989, and 1996) of the foundation annual reports are available. It is probable that the foundation was unable to publish reports for those three years based on a note in the 1969 report explaining that the lack of funding would not allow an annual report to be published. It may also be true for the other two years. Reports between 1945 and 1965 contain information about both the FFA and the NFA awards.
Other documents relating to the awards are the booklets produced describing various foundation awards. Information on the finances of the foundation can be found in three different places: audit reports, budgets, and bulletins. The bulletins are important not only for the budget information, but also because they describe the yearly requirements for the distribution of the foundation money.
Photographs, 1916-2007, are arranged in two different categories: magazine photographs and subject photographs. The magazine photographs include images used in the FFA publications: The National Future Farmer/New Horizons and Between Issues/FFA Advisors Making a Difference. These photographs are arranged chronologically by issue. Photographs from the magazines are useful on a limited basis because there is no index to the magazine. An image can only be found based on the issue or with basic knowledge about the time frame in which a specific event occurred. The subject photographs are arranged alphabetically under a series of subject headings created by the National FFA Organization. The headings represent the activities, programs, and personalities within the organization. Photographs of the National Conventions, National Officers, and American Stars are the most valuable sources of information, contain the most complete sets of photographs, and are the best identified. An index has been created to assist with the location of National Officers (see Appendix B). Another complete and well-identified series is the staff photographs, including the National Advisors and the National Executive Secretaries.
Slides, 1952-1995, are from the national magazine, calendar, and slide shows often included as part of the National FFA Convention program. Early slides often include only the magazine and calendar covers. Paintings were commissioned annually by the National FFA Organization to be used as calendar covers and for other promotional activities during that year. The magazine and calendar slides are arranged chronologically. The most beneficial part of the slide collection is the slide shows, generally from the late 1970s-1980s. The slides emphasize visually the programs, activities, and events sponsored by the National FFA Organization. Although some presentations are missing pieces, most contain a script, set of slides and an audio cassette. The slide shows are arranged alphabetically by title.
Audio-Visual Materials, 1935-2003, consist of audio cassettes, reel to reel recordings, video tapes, and films. Oral history interviews, convention recordings, and promotional campaigns are included in this collection. The collection includes a sampling of convention video sets, promotional videos such as commercials, historic videos, and classroom instructional videos. A sampling of the convention videos is made based on milestone events occurring during that year. For example, the 1987 National FFA Convention highlights major changes occurring within the organization. The main portion of the collection is from the 1970s-1990s. One of the oldest films, called The Greenhand, ca.1935, documents chapter activities and the initiation of new members.

Why is Olly's forehead made of zits?
Whose the fag on the right?
Edit: Fag, what I meant was fag. Whose the fag on the right.
Eve why did you ever talk to these people. I would be ashamed to know them in real life.

Get Nicola to give you revealing pictures and post them. I want to take a picture of me next to an enlarged one on my computer holding a sign saying Take This Ben You Ugly Faggot. What an awkward looking cunt. Is he 13?
I'm going to attempt picture editing. If it works it will be hilarious.
Better yet you could actually get in her pants, tape it, and mail it to him.
nicola doesnt have any revealing pictures.

You could probably beat up Ben and Alex, Eve.
I wouldnt be able to beat up alex. he can lift 22 stone and he has the weight advantage.

You could still beat up Alex since he looks like he has no idea how to fight.

Dear Editor:
Your editorial (Dec. 4) on climate change made a compelling case that congressional committee leadership overseeing science issues should not support views that are "outside the bounds of reason."
But the piece went on to state: "Putting a climate change skeptic in charge of the Committee on Science, Space and Technology is something like putting a Christian Scientist in charge of the nation's immunization program. If you basically don't believe in science, what business do you have overseeing science policy?"
As a Christian Scientist, I take issue with such an association.
I can agree that someone like me should not run an immunization program. But I very much "believe in science." The 19th century founder of Christian Science, Mary Baker Eddy, was generally supportive of Charles Darwin's scientific work in the face of overwhelming hostility to evolution from most religious leaders of the day. And she felt that the Bible, properly understood, supported rather than opposed the rational search for truth. Indeed, Truth and Mind are two of the names for God she drew directly from the Bible. She called reason "the most active human faculty" and encouraged its rigorous and constructive use.
Just because one finds substance and reality to be far more than that illusive thing we call matter, and just because one finds practical power and principled healing in the realm of thought and spirit, does not make one anti-science or anti-reason. Far from it. Indeed, as Eddy put it -- right in line with the gist of your editorial -- "The time for thinkers has come."

|Second annual Taste of Agriculture is a success
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
With an abundance of food and prizes, community members got a "taste" of what Phillips County has to offer at the Taste of Agriculture on Monday, March 16. Numerous vendors from the area lined up in the Haxtun Elementary School to showcase a wide variety of products.
Phillips County administrator and committee member Randy Schafer thought Taste of Agriculture was a success with around 235 county residents attending and 35 vendors and contributors participating in the event.
There are two requirements for each vendor: provide a taste of their product as well as a prize for the drawing. Participants experienced samples of everything from pheasant soup to coffee to wheat chili.
Vendors not only gave out samples, but also provided attendees with information about their business or organization.
According to Schafer, part of the night's success was due to the great vendors that participated. Most of the vendors were from Phillips County, but non-county businesses and organizations also took part, which Schafer said added a lot to what the event had to offer.
Taste of Agriculture is a good opportunity for Phillips County to show off its agriculture products. Schafer noted "It's a real neat way to celebrate our economy which is based on agriculture."
Phillips County commissioners initially organized the event last year to not only promote agriculture, but also to raise funds for the new Phillips County event center building. This year's funds will be split between the event center and Haxtun's new daycare project.
The commissioners also began Taste of Agriculture in hopes of continuing it year after year. Schafer said based on the success of the first two years, his expectation is to hold the event again next year, this time hopefully in the new event center.
Participating vendors and contributors to the Taste of Agriculture were Anderson Alfalfa, Bar Lo Café, Bull Dog Bistro, Colo. Division of Wildlife, Colo. Wheat Growers, Cookie Cutter Shop, D & L Meat, Daily Grind Coffee Co., Double W Dairy, Chuck Dvorak, Everything's Homemade, Grainland Coop, Haxtun Conservation Dist., Haxtun Super, HolyOK Ranch LLC, Holyoke Veterinary Svc., Jake's Feed Supply, MV Equipment, N.E. Colo. Cattlewomen, NECO Wind Energy LLC, Old Men Haying, Peerless/GPRC, Roy Pfaltzgraff, Phillips County Extension, Phillips County 4-H, Phillips County Fair Queen, Phillips County Farm Bureau, Pheasants Forever, Pioneer Seed Corn, E Poe Farms, Promised Land Irrigation, SW Feed Products, Seaboard Foods, Speer Cushion Co. and Wisdom Farms.
Phillips County 4-H and FFA members also helped at the event.

Child poverty and its causes will be one of the main focuses of the conference. Nearly 15 million children in the United States, or 21 percent of all children, live in families below the federal poverty level, according to the National Center for Children in Poverty (NCCP). A study from the NCCP found Cincinnati has the third-worst children's poverty rate at 48 percent. Only Detroit and Cleveland were worse, with 53.6 percent and 52.6 percent, respectively.
"We're going to look at all the range of policies and practices and the impact of those and what we can do," CDF President Marian Wright told WVXU today. "It's going to be a real teach-in on what we must do to move forward and stop the move backwards, which I think we're in the midst of."
The conference will also look at education issues. It seeks to shine light on the issue of the achievement gap between the poor and non-poor and racial disparities. A 2011 analysis by the National Center for Education Statistics found black and Hispanic students are behind their white peers by 20 test-points in math and reading tests provided by the National Assessment of Educational Progress. The difference equates to about two grade levels.
The conference will also look at child health care services, zero-tolerance discipline policies in schools and tools and programs that can be used to improve the lives of struggling children.
Anyone is free to register at CDF's website to join the conference. Experts, doctors and activists will also be there.
A social worker that has written a new book criticizing Cincinnati's development efforts in Over-the-Rhine will conduct a book signing Thursday.
Alice Skirtz, a Cincinnati native, is the author of Econocide: Elimination of the Urban Poor. She will host a book signing from 4:30-6:30 p.m. at Skirtz & Johnston bakery at Findlay Market, 113 West Elder St.
Proceeds from book sales at the event will be given to the Greater Cincinnati Coalition for the Homeless. Skirtz is the founding organizer of the coalition.
The book profiles growing economic inequalities in the city that is reflected in policy debates over contentious issues like panhandling, homelessness, planning and funding for affordable housing, zoning for social service agencies and site selection for shelters.
Written from a social worker's perspective, Econocide focuses on advocacy for people who are most vulnerable in society to promote and make sure they're included in the socio-economic policies of local government.
"Based on over 40 years of experience in working with the urban poor, I wrote this book to call attention to how they have become increasingly at risk of being removed permanently from the community and civic life," Skirtz said. "The growth of privatization has led to increasing economic inequities, lessening influence in administrative and legislative affairs, and decreasing access to housing and even public spaces. I intend for this book to lead to a change in how we treat the urban poor."
The book includes a blurb by David Mann, a local attorney who also is an ex-Cincinnati mayor and former congressman.
"You cannot read her book without tears coming to your eyes at some point and without wondering why a supposedly enlightened society cannot better balance the needs of the least among us with overall economic health and viability," Mann wrote. "You will ask yourself why we cannot do better."
UPDATE: The Greater Cincinnati Coalition for the Homeless has canceled its Wednesday mock rally for Western & Southern Financial Group. The Coalition Tuesday evening released the following statement: "Due to a change in plans the mock 'Rally to Support Western and Southern' has been canceled. Stay tuned for upcoming gatherings and events to support the Women of the Anna Louise Inn as we fight for the right of self determination."
The following is CityBeat's Tuesday afternoon blog post in response to the event announcement:
The Greater Cincinnati Coalition for the Homeless is helping to organize a mock rally to support what it believes is the bullying of the Anna Louise Inn women's shelter by Western & Southern Financial Group. The mock group will be called "Citizens for Corporate Bullies" and will hold signs that say "Greed is Good," "We Support Corporate Bullies," "Poor Women Not Welcome" and "W&S Take Whatever You Want." The event begins a noon May 2 at 4th and Sycamore streets.
The Coalition has created a fake persona who supports W&S's desire to build condos to attract a more desirable class of residents and rhetorically asks, "Besides, what gives the Anna Louis Inn the right to stay in that building just because they own it and it's been there for a hundred years?"
The protest is in response to ongoing legal issues surrounding the Inn's proposed expansion and W&S's development efforts in the neighborhood. CityBeat last October reported on the situation in a story titled, "Putting on the Pressure: Western & Southern won't take 'no' for an answer." The following is an excerpt summarizing the situation then:
Last summer the facility's owners rebuffed an offer from the powerful Western & Southern Financial Group to buy their property, triggering a heated legal battle. The company, located near the Anna Louise Inn in the affluent Lytle Park district on downtown's eastern edge, wanted the site so it could demolish or redevelop the Inn and build upscale condominiums.
After the offer was rejected, the Anna Louise Inn continued with a long-planned renovation and was awarded a $2.7 million loan by Cincinnati City Council. That's when Western & Southern filed a lawsuit against the Inn and the city, alleging zoning violations.
The showdown pits the Inn, opened in 1909 with the help of prominent attorney Charles P. Taft, against a company that ranks in the Fortune 500 and is headed by CEO John Barrett, an ex-chairman of the Cincinnati Business Committee who is widely considered one of the most powerful men in the city.
The facility's owners and some city officials say Western & Southern is trying to use its sizable financial resources publicly, along with its political clout behind the scenes, to strong-arm opponents and get what it wants.
Representatives for W&S have stated that the company's $3 million offer to purchase the building is fair and have also offered to aid the Inn in finding a new location.
WVXU reported that supporters of the Inn held a rally April 4 calling for a quick judgment in a court case that could delay funding for the renovation.
A nonpartisan think tank that advocates for poor and working class families is urging that Ohio adopt its own version of the federal Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).
The group, Policy Matters Ohio, said a state version of the federal tax credit, set at 10 percent, would divert just $210 million from Ohio's coffers but would benefit 949,000 low-income working families across the state. Such a credit would provide families with an average of $221 each, which Policy Matters Ohio described as "modest but helpful."
Currently 24 states and the District of Columbia have Earned Income Tax Credits, ranging from 3.5 percent to 50 percent of the federal credit.
"A state EITC program enables families to work and build assets while reducing the impact of regressive income tax changes," said a statement released by Policy Matters Ohio.
"A state EITC makes sense because recent changes to the personal income tax have provided greater tax reductions for higher-income earners than they have for lower- and middle-income families," the statement continued.
The federal EITC is a refundable tax credit for low- and medium-income individuals and couples, and is considered the nation's largest poverty relief program. When the credit exceeds the amount of taxes owed, it results in a tax refund to those who qualify and claim the credit.
To qualify for the EITC, a recipient must have earned income of $49,000 or less. The credit is worth significantly more for families with children and is refundable, which means families receive cash refunds above their tax liability.
Created in 1975, the federal EITC is aimed at helping lift families with children about the poverty level, along with offsetting the burden of Social Security taxes and maintaining an incentive for people to work.
In Ohio, 949,692 people currently claim the federal EITC. The credit generates $2.1 billion for state residents, and the average refund is $2,211.
Founded in 2000, Policy Matters Ohio is a nonprofit, nonpartisan policy research organization that seeks to create "a more prosperous, equitable, sustainable and inclusive Ohio," through research and policy advocacy.
Based in Cleveland and Columbus, the organization is funded primarily through grants from groups like the Ford Foundation, the Sisters of Charity Foundation, the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the Corp. for Enterprise Development and others.
Supporters of low income housing programs are criticizing a bill proposed by U.S. Rep. Steve Chabot (R-Westwood). Chabot's proposal would impose restrictions on people who use the federal Section 8 housing program, which provides vouchers to help poor people pay their rent. Among his changes, people only would be able to use the program for five years. In Cincinnati, however, 53 percent of clients already leave the program within five years. Of the 47 percent who remain, many of them have problems like mental health issues and likely would become homeless and more expensive to deal with for the government, a housing advocate told The Enquirer.
To prepare for an influx of foreign visitors when the World Choir Games begin here in July, a new language translation tool is being launched. Cincinnati-based Globili is testing its text and mobile application for cellphones and smartphones that translates signs, menus and ads into about 50 languages. The event will be held July 4-14 at various locations in downtown and Over-the-Rhine including the Aronoff Center for the Arts and Music Hall.
It's been 147 years since the U.S. Civil War ended, but Kentucky lawmakers are just now getting around to abolishing a pension fund for Confederate veterans. The measure, which passed Kentucky's House of Representatives unanimously on Feb. 29, now heads to the state Senate for a vote. No one who is eligible to receive the pension has been alive for at least 50 years, lawmakers said. I guess things really do move more slowly in the South.
Business at the venerable Blue Wisp Jazz Club has increased since it moved to a new location at Seventh and Race streets in January. The club's owners attribute the jump to more pedestrian traffic and the number of hotels located near the new site. The front room includes a bar and restaurant accessible with no cover charge, while the back room is reserved for performances by Jazz musicians.
Steep spikes and drops on standardized test scores, a pattern that has indicated cheating in Atlanta and other cities across the nation, have occurred in hundreds of school districts and charter schools across Ohio in the past seven years, a Dayton Daily News analysis found. The analysis doesn't prove cheating has occurred in Ohio, but documents show state officials don't employ vigorous statistical analyses to catch possible cheating, discipline only about a dozen teachers a year and direct Ohio's test vendor to spend just $17,540 on analyzing suspicious scores out of its $39 million annual testing contract.
In news elsewhere, the U.S. Supreme Court begins its constitutional review of the health-care overhaul law today with a basic question: Is the court barred from making such a decision at this time? The justices will hear 90 minutes of argument about whether an obscure 19th-century law — the Anti-Injunction Act — means that the court cannot pass judgment on the law until its key provisions go into effect in 2014.
When it recently was announced that a U.S. soldier who allegedly went on a shooting spree in Afghanistan would be charged with 17 counts of murder, many people wondered about the number. After all, early reports indicated Army Staff Sgt. Robert Bales, a Norwood native, allegedly killed 16 people. Military officials decided to charge Bales with murder for the death of the unborn baby of one of the victims, a senior Afghan police official said today.
In a possibly related incident, a gunman in an Afghan army uniform killed two NATO soldiers today at a base in southern Afghanistan, NATO's International Security Assistance Force has said. Details were still sketchy, but NATO said in a statement that an individual wearing an Afghan soldier's uniform had turned his weapon against international troops. Coalition forces then returned fire, killing the gunman.
China and the United States have agreed to coordinate their response to any "potential provocation" if North Korea goes ahead with a planned rocket launch, the White House says. North Korea says the long-range rocket will carry a satellite, but U.S. officials say any launch would violate United Nations resolutions and be a missile test.
Somehow, 71-year-old Dick Cheney managed to get a heart transplant Saturday after spending nearly two years on a list waiting for a suitable organ to become available. Cheney, a former U.S. vice president and — some would say — unindicted war criminal, got the transplant even as much younger, healthier people continue to wait for a new heart. (My guess is he made a pact with Beelzebub.) Cheney has had five heart attacks over the years, the first occurring at age 37.
Federal officials this week awarded more than $2.6 million to a local nonprofit agency that oversees various programs aimed at reducing homelessness.
The money, allocated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), was given to Strategies to End Homelessness, which was formerly known as the Cincinnati/Hamilton County Continuum of Care.
In total, HUD awarded nearly $201 million to 731 programs focused on addressing homelessness. The funding will help provide critically needed rapid re-housing, transitional housing, and permanent supportive housing for homeless individuals and families.
Locally, Strategies to End Homelessness coordinates such federal funding. It will divide the money as follows:
** Center for Independent Living Options (permanent housing) — $854,432
** Salvation Army (rapid re-housing for homeless families) — $526,797
** Prospect House (homeless housing and treatment) — $126,000
** Freestore Foodbank (rapid re-housing for homeless individuals) — $739,858
** Lighthouse Youth Services (permanent supportive housing) — $409,122
HUD awards such funding based on outcomes achieved by the local homeless services system.
"Our community received this funding because we have been successful at doing two things: helping homeless people move into housing, and also increase their income, specifically through employment," said Kevin Finn, Strategies' executive director, in a prepared statement.
According to the latest data reported by more than 3,000 cities and counties throughout the United States, homelessness declined 2.1 percent between 2010 and 2011 and dropped 12 percent among military veterans.
Founded in 2007, Strategies to End Homelessness coordinates services and funding toward the goal of ending homelessness. The organization works to prevent at-risk households from becoming homeless, assist people who are homeless back into housing, and to reduce the recurrence of homelessness.
The organization has created a single, coordinated system that includes the use of homelessness prevention services, street outreach, emergency shelter, rapid re-housing, transitional and permanent supportive housing, and services-only programs.
There are protesters who have been standing outside of a pediatrician's office almost daily since at least the summer. Why? Someone else in that same tiny complex is offering abortions. A woman who has taken her special needs daughter to that pediatrician's office for more than 20 years was recently told by her minister's wife that she needed to switch pediatricians. Abortion is "murder," of course, so going anywhere near the "scene of the crime" must make her a co-conspirator.
On the opposite side of town is a Catholic organization made up of young people who were praying the rosary daily in hopes of a veto on the law that required Catholic employers to provide health care that included birth control coverage. Furthering their attack on small families are two Republican candidates for president. Rick Santorum and Mitt Romney seem to want to reverse the bill that legalized the sale of contraception.
Yes, the Bible says "Be fruitful." The Bible also says to take care of children. Statistics from UNICEF report that in 2009 roughly 2.1 million children are currently orphaned in America. Who is taking care of them? Should anyone be so adamantly against birth control when they're also clearly unwilling to help take care of the result from a lack of birth control?
Before abortion was legalized, women were forced to take to back alleys in order to end unwanted pregnancies. Those terminations consisted of the use of things like scalding water or hangers. Many women contracted infections from those unsterile and unsafe methods. Too many women died from those infections. Why wasn't anyone looking out for them?
Many of the comments we've received at CityBeat in response to coverage of these issues have focused on the sinfulness of abortion and birth control (and, of course, homosexuality). Why are they overlooking all the other "sins" the bible suggests?
Click the jump for a list of all the crazy things the Old Testament says are also sins.
If you care about politics, no doubt you've heard by now that birth control opponent Rick Santorum scored upset victories Tuesday in the Colorado and Minnesota caucuses and Missouri's non-binding primary. No delegates were awarded in any of the races, but the showing further undermines presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney's efforts to solidify his image as Republican frontrunner.
One of the best number crunchers around, Nate Silver at the FiveThirtyEight blog, says the latest results mean Romney will have a long slog to win the party's nomination. Given history and voter demographics, Romney should've easily won in Minnesota and Colorado and the fact that he didn't should serve as a warning for him, Silver adds.
A new Census Bureau report reveals that from 2005 to 2009, a segment of Over-the-Rhine had the highest income inequality of more than 61,000 communities nationwide.
The segment — known as Census Tract No. 17 — is the northeast quadrant of Over-the-Rhine. The findings were featured in an article Tuesday by McClatchy Newspapers, which attributes the disparity in the tract partially to gentrification and the influx of young professionals into the predominantly low-income neighborhood.

Classic rockers Boston are hoping to score a Christmas hit by releasing their first album since frontman Brad Delp committed suicide in 2007.
"Life, Love & Hope" will hit stores on Dec.3, according to Music Tap, and it will be the band's first album of new material for over a decade.
The band's last studio album was 2002's "Corporate America."
Delp's vocals will reportedly not appear on any of the tracks. He has been replaced in the band by Tommy DeCarlo.

I just installed Zimbra Desktop to give it a try, but I can't get Zimbra to import my Outlook data file. I use Outlook 2002 and if my brief look is correct, Zimbra doesn't work with a .csv files from 2002? That doesn't make sense to me. Isn't a CSV file a generic format? I haven't upgrade to Outlook 2003 or later because I have been looking for an alternative. Zimbra looks pretty interesting, however if it can't make the transition VERY easy, why would I change.
And for want it's worth, (about as much as you paid) this is a fundamental marketing mistake I've seen many Outlook replacements make...the transition of all Outlook data to the new software must be painless for non-technical people! As an example, why wouldn't the new software have every contact field available in Outlook? If I have the data I want to keep the data! And there should be conduits for coverting data from every major alternative to Zimbra!

In a country that battles on a daily basis with the human cost of speeding, it came as a surprise to see that 128 Abu Dhabi motorists were fined last year for driving below the speed limit.
According to a spokesman at Abu Dhabi police, "Driving slower than the minimum speed limit causes traffic jams and crashes." And, if you've ever born witness to the chaos caused by a slow-moving vehicle in the middle lane of a fast-moving 12-lane highway such as Emirates Road, you'll know exactly what he means.
But 128 drivers fined for driving too slowly is a drop in the ocean when it comes to those caught for other road offences. Earlier this month, police revealed that a UAE national with a heavy right foot had racked up AED 45,000 (£7,500) worth of speeding fines in just five minutes as he… Read more

Cellphones and electronics reported stolen from store
Published: Thursday, January 3, 2013 at 11:35 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 3, 2013 at 11:35 a.m.
OCALA - More than a dozen cellphones and other electronic gadgets were stolen from a store early Thursday.
Surveillance video from the AT&T store at 4405 SW College Road shows a window was shattered at 2:44 a.m. Three people went inside and removed 15 cellphones, eight tablet computers and a Galaxy camera, and left the building at 2:46 a.m.
The stolen items were valued at $16,500.
The burglars were described as:
- A white male or light-skinned black male who was wearing a black jacket over a white hoodie, blue jeans, black shoes and purple gloves, and had a black or green backpack.

The old yellow truck
Here's the old yellow truck and my dad Garry Lee Richardson, my son Joseph Garry Spurlin, and our dogs Angel and Harley.
When my grandfather Jones Nathan Richardson passed away in January 1994, he left behind not only his teachings and Christian love, but also the old yellow Chevy truck. My father, Garry Richardson, has this truck now, and every time he drives down the road I think about my grandfather. He would always do for everyone else before himself. When he was in the hospital dying of cancer, he would go visit other patients. He was always spreading the gospel.
I see a lot of my grandfather in my father, his teaching, his love and how he always does for everyone else. One day my father will hand the keys of this yellow truck to me, and then I will hand them down to my son. I hope to be half the person my grandfather was and my father is. And I hope to teach my son about love and doing for someone else before yourself.

Well, after talking to them a bit (emailing really) I found out that they wanted a map 11x17 map and room for counters that measured 3/4 inch per side. I quickly realized that the map they send was simply not going to fit on a 11x17 sheet and still have hexes large enough to handle the counters. So we decided to go with two 11x17 sheets. Now I had some room!
My first draft (that I sent to them) looked like this.


text: Anyone have opinions about units 57/58. I understand that it is a limited entry unit and I may have enough points to draw a muzzle loader tag for it. But, the success rates are about half of where I usually hunt in an OTC unit. Also, by the looks of Google Earth, it appears to be lower elevation and not the typical "high country" I'm, used to. Maybe the elk are there later in the season. Accessibility is great, with all the roads winding through the area. I do like that aspect.

1985-1996 Fleetwood and Brougham Forum Discussion, 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue in Past Cadillac Vehicle Discussion; I've discovered a nagging problem that I'd like to try and get on top of. The A/C doesn't always turn ...

85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
I've discovered a nagging problem that I'd like to try and get on top of.
The A/C doesn't always turn on. Some times when I first jump in the car I'll need to turn the climate control on and off a few times before the compressor will kick on and start to blow cold air. Once the A/C starts, it seems to work fine after that, but the next time I jump in the car, again I'll have to play with the buttons for a while before it will kick on again.
I don't know if it's related but I also have a problem where as I'm driving down the road occasionally the fan will turn off for about 2 seconds and then come back on to full strength. That happens once or twice a trip.
I'm trying to figure out where to look first, climate control head? the control unit under the glove box? A bad ground somewhere?
The lights on the climate control unit and the display always seem to look like they are doing what I expect, so it's not a contact problem with the buttons.
Jon, if it's a problem with the CC head, I have a spare lying around (remanufactured delco)
Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
I haven't quite figured out how I'm going to test the components since it's just an intermittent problem. Another symptom I'm having is that if I leave the A/C on for a long highway trip, it seems to get weak and then quite after about an hour. After it sits for a few hours it comes back good as gold. But if I keep switching back and forth from auto to econ, it will work indefinitely. I'm wonder if the cycle switch at the evaporator is starting to give out.
How much do you want for the CC head? I'm looking at getting one from a local wreckers if they'll ever send the guy out in the yard to see if the car's still there (they wont let outside people into their yard). Does anyone know if the units are standard and can be switched from metric to American units or if they are two separate part numbers?
I have a brand new NOS resistor module in the car so I don't think it's related to that.

Yeah, I'll take it for $30.
Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
Just to double check, the CC head you have is for the HT-4100 and has the rear window defroster?
- 07-27-13 06:37 PM #7Originally Posted by j2rossit
Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
The 4100 cars had the trouble code reader through the climate control head. It had a built in diagnostic for the TBI. Somehow I doubt the olds equipped cars had the same CC head.
Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
They won't fit on HT4100 cars. You need a 82-85 one.
Bought a later one too and saw that the Fuel Monitor is not working with this one.
So would it have to be from a deville or would one from a 4100 powered eldorado work? It would have the diagnostics, but I am not 100% sure it is the same size/ has the same pinout.
Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
I think it doesn't matter, but no warranty to this.

Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
As long as the fuel data center isn't part of the control head itself it should be the same part.
Remember that it won't blow cold all the time and the fan speed is also automatic. If the car senses that the interior temperature is where it should be the fan speed can lower and the ac won't come out as cold until it's needed again to maintain the temperature. If you have to turn it on and off a couple times to make it come on it could be that the blend door isn't working right.
Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
'86-'89 Brougham control head fit, but fuel data panel is not working with it. Just had this problem and unfortunately bought a '86-'89 one. Works great but as I said, no fuel monitor. The control head for HT4100 cars have another plug at the backside that goes to the fuel data display.
Bought a correct '82-'85 one and now it works.
Here you can see the additional plug.
In these two links are an Eldorado control head and a RWD control head. They have the same part number. So they all used the same control head on all HT4100 models.
This one is a '86-'89 one. You can see the missing plug.

Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
For the issue where the ac is not engaging, check with a test light or voltmeter at the compressor clutch power connector when the ACC is on, but the compressor is not active. If you have 12V there, then nothing is wrong with your ACC. It would likely be a wide clutch gap or weak clutch coil. If not 12v, check for 12v at the evap pressure switch, then back to the ACC unit.
Re: 85 Fleetwood Brougham Climate Control issue
Yeah, I think the evaporator is freezing which is why I'm suspicious of the cycle switch. It's supposed to shut the compressor off if the evaporator goes below 0 deg C and reengage the compressor when the evaporator warms to above 7 deg C.
The system is charged and both high and low side pressures are good.
I'll try and get what ever voltage readings I can when the system is giving me grief (it's been acting properly since I made the post here so I don't have much more to update). I hate intermittent problems.

Hi, we are trying to migrate to Zimbra Open Source Edition.
Our IP and subnet of class C (!) is blacklisted.
ISP does not provide a mail relay and we do not have another ISP.
End users must work with Zimbra via web interface.
So the only way to get emails delivered is to
connect Zimbra server to mail server of our hoster via POP/SMTP.
Is there such options in Zimbra to fetch emails via POP3 and send via SMTP.
Hoster allows to use the same account (firstname.lastname@example.com) for outgoing emails from all *@oursite.com addresses.
Thanks in advance.
I can not believe that nobody else has the same problem with IP and ISP.

Hahira, GA - Hundreds of floats, thousands of people and countless hand fulls of candy. That is what makes the Annual Honey Bee Festival so special.
"My favorite part has got to be the cars. The cars and the motorcycles," said festival goer Don Peacock who came out with his daughter Pairs.
"The cars are fascinating. They're really loud. I really like the older cars," said festival goer Whitney Reid who came out with her mom Gina.
Organizers say the Honey Bee Festival actually has one of the largest parades in South Georgia. This year's theme is "It's A Family Affair".
"We come every year and have a great time. The children love it," said Peacock.
You may see some familiar faces in the procession. Everyone from the local Mayor to elected officials in the capital came out.
But just minutes after it started the parade came to a sudden halt. A train running through town interrupted the festivities for almost ten minutes.
"I think that was the first time the train has held up the parade in a long time. But that was great. It just added a little touch to the parade," said Gina Reid.
Yet for all the glamour of the parade and the pockets stuffed with sweets. For these families in the small town of Hahira the sweetest thing of all is time well spent together.

If it keeps raining today and into tomorrow, G7 is going to look like Woodstock. Will the University close it or will they continue to let people in because it's a donor lot? If they do close it, does that mean the public lots that are open have to honor G7 passes?
I'd rather they not close it, but I can't imagine many people will want to tailgate in conditions that resemble WW1 either.
In 1984, I was hospitalized for approaching perfection.
I suspect they'll close it.

So then what do you do with the several thousand people who have passes to that lot and donated in order to get said passes? Do you honor them in other lots? Or do you tell those people "tough ****. You figure it out" and make them pay the $20 for public parking?
If there's nowhere to park, we might be looking at lowest attendance in 10 years. Ames isn't set up to have thousands of displaced vehicles. Thankfully, it sounds like G2/3 are in a lot better shape than G7, as well as everything south of 16th St.
Whoever said the Vet Med lots in the other thread posted the most likely answer, I'm guessing.
I'm really bad about which lot is which. Last night's rain just makes me think they'll close one if there's any doubt.
For my part, it definitely looks like a walk from Hy-Vee.
Looks like people need to arrive very early.
Let Prohm's Posse Ride: Hallice, Brady, Stu, Lard, Naz, Deonte, Monte, Matt, Simeon, Jordan, and Babb.
I haven't been to Ames since the flooding, but is G7 in shape to be used even if it doesn't rain anymore?
I was in town last weekend, and all the lots looked pretty decent. Coldwater, on the other hand, looked like hell.
Was G7 one of the lots in question in the press releases?
In years past, they've let people into G7 after rains. Presuming it doesn't get much heavier - I think you'll be ok.
It's been so dry the last few weeks, the ground is probably soaking it up pretty well.
if the grass lots around the stadium are unusable ISU needs to do like the Aggies....
have the general public park at a staging area and BUS the fans to the stadium...
if there is no parking fans will refuse to show up and walk miles and i mean miles to see a football game.....
instead of bowling in the south endzone maybe jamie should pave the grass lots for football parking....
If they close some lots why don't they have Cyride run back and forth from Kmart. State fair does this with Dart at the Capitol. Seems to work well there. Yeah, it would hurt for tailgating but they could still get people to the game. You could charge a couple bucks. Could even let those with parking passes on for free.
G5 was mostly underwater this morning and G4 and G8 both had standing water

G7 update:
G7 Thursday afternoon.
The first Thursday game is notorious for a late arriving crowd and poor tailgating atmosphere before gametime. The weather is going to make it 100 times worse.

I doubt that, as the weather is supposed to get better as the day goes on. The late arrivals won't be dealing with bad weather.
Really the worst thing weather-wise is what has already happened. It's the rain that fell yesterday and last night inundating the grass lots. It's not more than a 50% chance of scattered showers ending in the early afternoon for tomorrow, anyways. Of course, if it's more than a 10% chance of rain, people act like it WILL rain.
All donor lots are available for parking.

Today's grooming products for men include a wide array of items, many of which take advantage of essential oils, natural fragrances, and other quality ingredients to soothe the skin and diffuse the redness that can sometimes occur after shaving. Selecting Molton Brown Men After Shave provides a skin care step that performs well and delivers on its promises to nourish, soothe, and minimize the after effects of shaving the delicate area of a man's face and neck. An assortment of after shaves has been designed to provide an additional burst of hydration, while others in this category of beauty care products promise to desensitize or eliminate shine. Moreover, some of the formulas presented in men's after shave products include astringent or antiseptic agents to better condition the skin. Molton Brown Men After Shave offers a similar list of capabilities.
A scented product, such as Molton Brown Men After Shave, can be worn in place of cologne since its masculine scent tends to linger on the skin long after it has been applied to the areas of a man's face and neck where he has shaved.
No two after shave products for men are exactly alike, and some of these items are more popular than others. While the scent of an after shave product is important for personal reasons, it is also necessary to find and use a quality personal care product that provides additional benefits such as moisturizing or healing the tired, rough skin that can occur with shaving. Finding a cosmetic or skin care product that stands the test of time and consistently performs well is an important facet of a beauty care routine that delivers the desired results, since you want a product that you can rely on time after time. Molton Brown Men After Shave products provide excellent results each and every time.
Delivering a burst of alertness and an invigorating explosion of energy, Molton Brown Fresh Bushukan Citrus Splash delivers a crisp, manly fragrance steeped in the richness of Bergamot, Patchouli, Sage Clary, Lemon, and Thyme essential oils. Carefully blended to provide a truly masculine scent, this after shave product's therapeutic oils provide antiseptic, antioxidant, antibacterial, and astringent properties that soothe, cleanse, heal, and protect the delicate areas of the skin that men shave on a daily basis. Molton Brown Fresh Bushukan Citrus Splash allows men to reclaim their masculinity with its rich, warm scent that is created through a careful blending of herbal oils – Patchouli for its earthy scent of musk, Bergamot for its crisp, refreshing aroma, Sage Clary for its warm, mellow scent, and Thyme for its herbal bouquet.
