Kennedy's desk in the Senate, which had also been used by his brother John, was covered Wednesday by a black shroud and a vase of white roses.
In his later years, Kennedy cut a barrel-chested profile, with a swath of white hair, a booming voice and a thick, widely imitated Boston accent. He coupled fist-pumping floor speeches with Irish charm and formidable negotiating skills. He was both a passionate liberal and a clear-eyed pragmatist, willing to reach across the political aisle.
He was first elected to the Senate in 1962, taking the seat that his brother John had occupied before winning the White House, and he served longer than all but two senators in history.
His own hopes of reaching the White House were damaged — perhaps doomed — in 1969 by the scandal that came to be known as Chappaquiddick. He sought the White House more than a decade later, lost the Democratic nomination to Carter, and bowed out with a stirring valedictory: "For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dream shall never die."
Kennedy was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor in May 2008 and underwent surgery and a grueling regimen of radiation and chemotherapy.
He made a surprise return to the Capitol last summer to cast a decisive vote for the Democrats on Medicare. He made sure he was there again last January to see his former Senate colleague sworn in as president but suffered a seizure at a celebratory luncheon afterward.
He also made a forceful appearance at last summer's Democratic National Convention, where he spoke of his own illness and said health care was the cause of his life. His death occurred precisely one year later.
He was away from the Senate for much of this year, leaving Republicans and Democrats to speculate about what his absence meant for the fate of Obama's health care proposals.
Under state law, Kennedy's successor will be chosen by special election. In his last known public act, the senator urged Massachusetts state legislators to give Democratic Gov. Deval Patrick the power to name an interim replacement. But that appears unlikely, even though Patrick said Wednesday in radio interviews that he would sign such a bill if it reached his desk. The vacancy leaves Democrats in Washington with one less vote for at least the next several months.
His death came less than two weeks after that of his sister Eunice Kennedy Shriver on Aug. 11. Kennedy was not present for the funeral, an indication of the precariousness of his own health. Of nine children born to Joseph and Rose Kennedy, only one — Jean Kennedy Smith — survives.
In a recent interview with The Associated Press, Kennedy's son, Rep. Patrick Kennedy, D-R.I., said his father had defied the predictions of doctors by surviving more than a year with his fight against brain cancer.
The younger Kennedy said that gave family members a surprise blessing, as they were able to spend more time with the senator and to tell him how much he had meant to their lives.
Kennedy arrived in the Senate after a string of family tragedies. He was the only one of the four Kennedy brothers to die of natural causes.
Kennedy's eldest brother, Joseph, was killed in a plane crash in World War II. President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas in 1963. Sen. Robert F. Kennedy was gunned down in Los Angeles as he campaigned for the 1968 Democratic presidential nomination.
Years later, in 1999, John F. Kennedy Jr. was killed at 38 in the crash of the plane he was piloting. His wife died with him.
It fell to Ted Kennedy to deliver the eulogies, to comfort his brothers' widows, to mentor fatherless nieces and nephews. It was Ted Kennedy who walked JFK's daughter, Caroline, down the aisle at her wedding.
Tragedy had a way of bringing out his eloquence.

This maple looking leaf is all over the place, but it appears to be a vine or shrub. Can anyone ID it for me? This is in Eastern MA.
Vine/Shrub Leaf ID
You are stingy with images. Show us more than the leaf - it must be attached to something.
Till then, I'm pretty sure it's a A__e____i_ _re____d____l___.
That was my thought given the leaf image
"...is all over the place..." just screamed _o__e_ai_ _i_e to me.
I'm just asking, could it be a Porcelain Berry Vine. I had a vine with a leaf like this.
OldWrangler is not a mime...
But he could be a meme....
he'll never be a moon...there's only one!
And sometimes it is rather bright....grin
Or gibbous...
But hopefully not too garrulous....
If so, its just a phase.
And hopefully soon eclipsed.....

GAO-15-146R: Published: Nov 17, 2014. Publicly Released: Nov 17, 2014.

What GAO Found
GAO found (1) the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's (CFPB) financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2014, and 2013, are presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; (2) CFPB's internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2014, because of a material weakness in internal control over the reporting of accounts payable; and (3) no reportable noncompliance for fiscal year 2014 with provisions of applicable laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements GAO tested.
The material weakness is a result of serious control deficiencies that affected CFPB's determination and reporting of accounts payable. Specifically, GAO found that CFPB did not have effective procedures in place to determine and record an appropriate amount for goods and services received but not yet paid for as of September 30, 2014. Additionally, CFPB did not have effective review procedures to timely detect and correct inaccuracies in the accrual amounts. Despite the material weakness, CFPB made necessary and appropriate adjustments to its records and was therefore able to prepare financial statements that were fairly presented in all material respects for fiscal year 2014. However, the material weakness may adversely affect any decisions by CFPB's management that are based, in whole or in part, on information that is inaccurate because of this weakness.
GAO also found that although CFPB took actions to attempt to address a significant deficiency in internal control over accounting for property and equipment that GAO reported in fiscal year 2013, GAO's fiscal year 2014 audit continued to identify deficiencies in this area. GAO considered these deficiencies to collectively represent a significant deficiency in CFPB's internal control over financial reporting in fiscal year 2014 that merits attention by those charged with governance.
In commenting on a draft of this report, the Director of CFPB stated that he was pleased to receive an unmodified audit opinion on CFPB's fiscal years 2014 and 2013 financial statements. The Director also agreed with the material weakness over reporting of accounts payable and the significant deficiency over accounting for property and equipment that GAO reported, and added that CFPB will continue to work to enhance its system of internal control and ensure the reliability of its financial reporting.

Additional Notes
Complaint: There was a small water leak from the main line to the incoming line to my home. This line is 28 feel long, therefore has heat tape and insulation wrap to prevent freezing in winter. This heat tape was verified working before the plumbing company was called. The method I used is to turn on the cold water in the morning, and the water runs warm when the 28 foot length of heated water runs, then goes cool afterwards. This is how I traced the leak to be prior to the heat tape section.AA Quick was called since they were on the list of contractors who have experience in Manufactured homes. The only problem was the leak. Everything else was fine.Todd was the Serviceman. He did find the leak as a crack in the PVC pipe, yet was concerned he did not have the correct parts on his truck. Then he moved the line sideways, which ruptured the crack wide open. Now we had a real problem since he did not have the right parts and the leak was major. We had to shut off the main supply at the meter, then proceed with the repair.This is where the damage to my heat tape happened. Think of heat tape as the elements in your electric water heater. You are not supposed to have the heating elements on without water to cool them.After a few tries Todd did patch used parts from his truck. These used parts were not the correct parts, just needed to shut off the major leak. Time the heat tape was on without water to cool was about 45 minutes. The heat tape begins on the opposite side of the main line, thus when Todd touched the insulation wrap, there was no heat tape on that end, therefore he assumed incorrectly the heat tape was not functioning. He should have plugged the tape, or told me to unplug it. Was a rookie mistake from a person who should have had experience.The incorrect parts restrict the flow of water, so now the pipes resonate when water is on inside the house. Flushing the toilets and washing hands now makes a loud ringing noise. This did not happen until the used parts were installed. Product_Or_Service: Repair Plumbing Leak and Install Shutoff Order_Number: XXXXXX
Desired Settlement: Replace the heat tape which was burnt out during the time the patch job of used parts took.This heat tape lasted perfectly through the cold winters when other pipes froze. Now it must be replaced due to the overheat damage. The ringing noise requires new parts of the correct diameter on the main line. Todd now has eyes on the job so can purchase the correct diameter parts and install them. This will eliminate the ringing noise when the water is used in the home.
Business Response: Initial Business Response /* (1000, 15, 2015/10/16) */ To Whom It May Concern, The homeowner called on 8/3/15 to make a complaint and to say that we turned off his water for 30 minutes causing problems with his heat tape. After a discussion with the serviceman who informed me that the heat tape was old and in poor condition upon arrival and he assured me that he in no way touched the tape. As a follow up I called ***** hardware and spoke with someone to ask them if it was possible that the tape burned up in thirty minutes without water flowing in the pipe. To which he replied that this was highly unlikely and that he saw more of a chance of a problem with it being left plugged in all year long. In a second call to the H/O I tried to explain this and offered to have someone come out to take a look at the line. To which he immediately NO!, Not if you are not coming to replace it. At no time during either conversation did he mention any other issues other than the heat tape. If there is any problem with the work we preformed We will gladly come to the mobile home to check our work. Furthermore this whole heat tape discussion was formed from an assumption that because his water was not warm when he turned on the faucet that the tape was burned up and it was our fault. As I explained earlier I offered to have someone come and check the condition of the tape and the customer refused saying he already knew it was. And again if there is any complaint on the work we actually preformed we will be glad to rectify it. But in the matter anything we didn't do we are unable to do for free

We are planning on traveling in mid April to Sedona. We have 4 boys ages 16,14,20, and 7, so we need a nice place to stay where we can cook our own food. We also want a place with a pool to keep the boys entertained when we are not out site seeing. Would love a condo or villa where there are grills as well. What is weather like then too? Any suggestions of where to stay?

Report Abuse
There are any number of timeshares in Sedona that would fit the criteria. I am familiar with Los Abrigados, Sedona Summit, Ridge on Sedona Golf Resort, and Bell Rock Inn. Any of them would be fine, but I prefer them in the order listed. The first two are right in Sedona / West Sedona and the last two are in the Village of Oak Creek, about 7 miles south. Check to make sure wherever you stay that the pool is heated.
The weather in Spring can be unpredictable. I have run into snow/sleet coming into Sedona near the end of April, but it could also be in the 70's and 80's during the day. At night it could get down into the 40's.
Report Abuse
We stayed at the Sedona Summit several years ago and were very pleased. The condo was very nice, with kitchen and also a washer and dryer. The pool area was nice. We were there in January and were able to sit out by the pool several days. It was cool in the mornings and warmed up in the afternoons. There were also several restaurants and a grocery store near the condo.

Thanks, you both have been quite helpful.

My favourite place to stay in the area is Junipine.

Junipine has no pool. But it does have a creek. It has snowed in oak creek canyon the 3 times we have been there in April

Tea is a fantastic writer who does not shy away from revealing the "mechanics" of her exploits to an encounter with a bad case of crabs. There is no "woe is me" monologues or angry tirades against an unforgiving society. She describes the absurdity of her clients, from a self-proclained warlock to cocaine-addicted business men. Her writing masterfully remains passively unapologetic and full of the witty prose that Tea is known for. The art work is spectacular. Laurenn McCubbin's eye for detail captures near-perfect facial expressions and the raw emotion of Tea's work. I hope the two will collaborate again.
RENT GIRL is simply amazing. Michelle Tea's personal accounts are simple yet complicated with jaded opinions and poetic verses about faked sex acts and looking for stability in a chaotic world. This won't disappoint.
Add atrocious (i.e. non-existent) editing, numerous spelling errors and the constant substitution of `than' with `then' and the picture that emerges is that of an author who appears to think that a memoir is worth reading simply because the author happens to be a part of the queer community. I am sorry, but it is not. Being self-absorbed and condescending doesn't make you a good writer, queer or not. I'd much rather read Dorothy Allison or Patrick Califia for that matter.
A shame, really, because the idea does sound good and the illustrations by Laurenn McGubbin are quite nice.
The story begins with great strength and interest as Tea describes her life as a lesbian sex worker in Boston. As her travels bring her to Provincetown and Tucson, the reader can feel that Tea is running out of steam (and so is her story). Her girlfriend, for the majority of the piece, is a self-centered and one-dimensional woman who introduces Tea to the world of prostitution. Along the way, the two meet up and live with various other sex workers and drug addicts. While the ride is rocky and the writing is smooth, the characters are emotionally limited and appear as caricatures.
The prose was stylistically similar to Tea's other work, but more focused on the topic at hand. The author spends little time discussing her own emotions, thought processes and even her own life outside work and the people she worked with. This book is interesting not because Tea offers compelling characters or a fully developed life story, but because she explains frankly and unabashedly what prostitution is like.
Overall, it was a good read, but not as absorbing as some of her other work.
It goes in hard into how exactly her life was, real, gritty, and not glossed over. She doesn't just focus on the good times, she gets into the raw of it. The drawings that accompany are amazing as well.
This will go down as one of my favorite books.

Tom Smart, Deseret Morning News
Calvin L. Rampton, 93, Utah's 11th and longest-serving governor ever, died Sunday. Funeral services are planned Friday at 11 a.m. at the Salt Lake Parleys LDS Stake Center, 1870 E. Parleys Canyon Blvd.
On Aug. 8 he suffered a stroke and earlier had been diagnosed with cancer. He was in hospice care, where family joined him Sunday after being alerted to his failing condition, said daughter Janet Warburton. Son Tony Rampton added, "This was not a shock and he passed away peacefully and without pain," he said today. "We were all there."
Son Vince Rampton said his father was in and out of conscicousness during the afternoon and passed away a little after 6 p.m. "He gave a little smile and stopped breathing."
To a generation of Utahns, Mr. Rampton was simply "the governor," because of his 12 years in office.
Mr. Rampton served as governor from 1965 to 1977, winning three four-year terms. By many accounts, he brought Utah's government into the modern fiscal era, initiating the first major bonding/building program in the state's history and restructuring government for the first time since statehood. Much of the University of Utah's "new" campus, as well as other public higher education campuses, were constructed through his efforts. He started "Rampton's Raiders," a group of volunteer businessmen who traveled the United States drumming up economic and tourist interest in Utah.
But what most people will likely remember about Rampton was his slow-talking, congenial style. While most called him governor to his face even after he left office they referred to him as simply Cal when talking outside his presence. He was rarely seen in public as angry or even perturbed.
A Bountiful native, Rampton retired from government service in 1977, returning to a private law practice.
Having ended his public career still loved by most Utahns, one wouldn't believe Rampton's political beginnings. He was rejected for office time after time. He lost three races for the state Senate, a race for state Democratic Party chairmanship and one that would have made him the Democratic national committeeman from Utah. He lost the Democratic U.S. Senate primary in 1962. In fact, he lost so many races in so short a span that some wondered what he was thinking when he got in the 1964 governor's race.
But it was a landslide Democratic year. Lyndon Johnson took Utah on his way to the presidency, the only time in the past 40 years that a Democratic presidential candidate carried Utah, and Rampton swung into office.
He ran on a pledge to change Utah government, and he didn't wait long. He proposed an ambitious bonding program of $67 million an outlandish amount in the mid-1960s considering that 30 years later the Legislature is arguing over $100 million bonds.
He put together what came to be called the Little Hoover Commission, which recommended vast restructuring of state government, the first such effort since statehood in 1896. In 1964, more than 150 state agencies reported directly to the governor. Little Hoover recommended the 150 be bunched up into 10 departments, and Rampton pushed the change through a special legislative session.
After eight years in office, many wondered if Rampton would break precedent and run for a third term. To the surprise of many, he decided to do just that. Even though Utah was beginning a hard swing toward Republicanism, Rampton won re-election in 1972 by his largest margin ever, even though then-President Richard Nixon, a Republican, took Utah in a landslide.
Later, Rampton was to say the last term probably was a mistake, that it cost his family too dearly. His wife, Lucybeth, suffered from clinical depression in 1974 and later Rampton said he'd lost some of the drive needed to conduct state business at the highest level.

VIDEO: Lap of Laguna Seca from inside Corvette ZR1!
The folks at Corvette Quarterly have been holding onto this vid ever since the Corvette ZR1 was trotted out at Laguna Seca in October for a hot lap. In it we get a cockpit's view of the track from inside the most powerful Corvette ever produced, but aside from the visuals, we really get rockin' to the soundtrack that features a distinct and glorious supercharger whine right at the beginning as the car's leaving the pits that just can't be denied. And while the driver was taking it easy, there's plenty of tire screeching and V8 rumbling to the redline that can be heard, too. Enjoy!

If we're being completely honest, we haven't exactly been in love with the aesthetics of the sixth-generation Mercedes-Benz SL-Class. It's mostly a front-end issue, with its glowering eagle-eye headlamps and upright, dinner-plate-sized Three-Pointed Star coming across to us as overwrought. That's particularly troublesome for a roadster whose history has of the most elegant designs of all time in its back catalog. Somehow, the new R231 generation's brash visuals seem more at home on this Brabus 8

Kerry 20K Viewing Party Tonight
Join us for a little pre-preseason debachuary tonight and a final farewell to Kid K in parachat. Plus the Oscars are tonight, so we can pull double duty talking about the red carpet (ZOMG, did you see what Kate Winselt was wearing?)
You have three viewing options, either you own the Chicago Cubs DVD set, Itunes for $2(search for Kerry Wood or a series called Baseball's Best) or Mlb.com(It's the Houston broadcast and you have to register and possibly been a past owner of MLB.tv). Game time is 9pm CST. With no commercials it shouldn't run more than two hours I believe and Transmission should be doing a parachat recap for tomorrow. Maybe this time we can get Kevin Orie to make the play.
Some quick notes from Mesa after the jump...
- Lou is going to ease Carlos Zambrano into their Cactus League rotation.
''There's no reason,'' he said. ''There's just no hurry.''
I'm not suppose to be worrying about his shoulder, right?
- Marmol still hasn't decided offically about the WBC, but sounds like he wants to skip it. Out of the major leaguers, it'll just be Geovany Soto, Ted Lilly and Kosuke Fukduome missing camp. Speaking of, Fukkadome hit a grand slam yesterday in an exhibition game for Team Japan.
- Jeff Samardzija will start the Cactus League opener on Wednsesday versus the Dodgers.
Hope to see some of you tonight in parachat.
Re: Kerry 20K Viewing Party Tonight
I'm not sure if anybody has mentioned it or not, but MLB Network's "30 Teams in 30 Days" series will cover the Cubs on March 10th.

You know, I don't post much here but I read a lot of you guyses comments and I am amazed at the intelligence and humor here, but, and I'm sorry to say this, you're all a bunch of morans (spelled like how Cardinal fans spell it). I mean, shit, dudes, let it go. Oh boy, here come the flames. Hey, it's Sunday, and this place needs a little controversy. So, I say again, let it go. Spend some time with the fucking kids or something. Sheesh.

How old are you and you spend your time hanging around on a message board with guys mostly in their 20s and 30s?

How does the sync-up work? Should I just hit play right at 9 CST, or is there a parachat-based starting pistol?

Stockpiling young talent isn't only for trading for someone like Chapman though. Even with an elite closer winning the World Series is basically a crap shoot so the key is to get to the playoffs as much as possible and not just mortgage everything on one year. Once you get there an elite bullpen certainly helps but the playoffs can be won by one hitter or starting pitcher getting hot (Murphy, Molina, Baumgardner) and a closer might not be able to stop that.
I'm also not crazy about press convictions. As the police report noted, there were no marks on the lady in question. There's a TMZ link (of course) to her police pictures, as well.
I think the only way this trade goes real bad is if Cubbery intervenes and Chapman is suddenly bad for some reason.
I am right there with you closing in on 60.
I don't care that much about "mortgaging" one player who is not only blocked by two guys, but is not ready to hit the majors for at least a couple years.
There is no reason why this team, this year, can't have a real shot at something NONE of us have experienced.
Further, I don't feel that even if they fall short that they have ruined their farm system.
I have made my opinion clear here, with others, Warren was shit on the Cubs save one spot start.
Trading for Warren, Warren sucking, getting Warren back for Chapman plus 3 prospects, sounds like Revenge of The Yankees on the former Boston executive. Old rivalries never die.
I pray to the heavens above Chapman doesn't suck for some reason, or he'll be booed out of town faster than a Todd Hundley revival meeting.
I'm kind of nostalgic for the Schwarber-for-Miller rumors.
This offseason, after some ridiculous playoff run and Chapman saving every game from here until the end of the postseason striking out 27/9innings, I welcome anyone to quote this thread and call me a dummy: I hate this trade, and my hate is 2 parts Chapman makes this team less likeable and 1 part that's a ridiculous overpay for 30 regular season innings and, at tops, 10 postseason innings. Already hoping they don't extend him.
btw...Thanks AZ Phil. I'm really enjoying your take on this trade.
I'm a bit disappointed on the Warren experience. Essentially they gave Castro away for crickets (OK, well they signed Zobrist with the Castro salary dump). Otherwise one might look at it as Chapman for Castro and our #1 minors prospect (Torres) + McKinney/Crawford. Seems pricey for a 2 month rental. We will see if this price tag is that steep in a relative way based on the remaining deadline deals for relievers.
Yep. One of the great things about this team (in addition to being really good at baseball) was the "likable" factor. Feels a bit different now. Who knows...maybe Chapman will be the king of the dance parties.
Here are some possible corresponding minor league moves we might see in the aftermath of the Chapman trade:
SOUTH BEND to MYRTLE BEACH: OF Donnie Dewees and INF Bryant Flete
EUGENE to SOUTH BEND: OF Robert Garcia and INF Vimael Machin
There is really no reason to replace Billy McKinney at Tennessee because both Chris Coghlan and Jorge Soler are doing their rehab at Tennessee.
And there are plenty of pitchers at Iowa. No need to replace Warren at AAA. .
I am 70 years old. The Cubs last played in the World Series in 1945. I was born in 1946. I hate to lose a prospect like Torres, but when the opportunity is there to get that World Series ring, you go for it. This was the idea in stock piling all this young talent. I would like to see Reddick added now and the Cubbies should be done.
I would expect Richard to accept an optional assignment because based on how he's played this season, there is a decent chance that he won't find work elsewhere. Rather stay and potentially get a ring. Same goes for Coghlan since he's struggled mightily this year.
Edwards should not go down. He's pitched very well and Maddon is very impressed with him. I would expect Grimm to go down for Cahill so he can get back on track (he's pitched better in July, but he's not getting enough appearances).
chitownmvp01: Indeed Clayton Richard would seem to be odd man out once Chapman reports, but Richard might accept a minor league assignment if he is promised a return to Chicago on 9/1 when MLB Active List rosters expand (Richard has minor league ioptions left).
The only player in the deal that would cause me a second thought is Gleyber Torres.
McKinney and Crawford are decent prospects but both are redundant/replaceable in the system and Warren was really only a middle-reliever or #6 starter, so to me it's really just Torres for Chapman.
There is no Comp pick for players traded mid-season. 2+ months of Chapman is it.
to get one of the best you have to give up one/some of your best...but it's a bit painful to watch the system's best prospect walk for any 2-3 month rental, especially one that's not an everyday player.

VISTA: Parents upset about plan to merge two schools
District officials meet with community at Olive to discuss proposal
More than 200 parents crowded into the cafeteria at Olive Elementary School on Monday evening to let Vista Unified School District officials know what they thought of plans to merge the school with Washington Middle School.
The parents were overwhelmingly against the proposal, which calls for combining the schools next fall and turning the Washington campus into a school for children from preschool to eighth grade.
"Find other ways to cut the money," said Ericka Morales, president of Olive's advisory committee for students learning to speak English. "Closing the school should be the last resort."
Donna Caperton, assistant superintendent in charge of business services, addressed the crowd and answered most of their questions. Because it's so early in the planning process, she said, there are still many unknowns.
"This is the first step in the process to improve communication," she said. "I'm here tonight to begin a dialogue."
Parents angrily questioned the district's motives in proposing the change and said they didn't like the idea of having young children sharing a campus with teens. Others said they were worried about the district's plan to use the Olive campus for adult education.
Many waved signs with messages in English and Spanish such as "Don't close Olive" and "Olive = good; merge = bad."
Some parents circulated a petition asking the school board to keep Olive at it's current location, next door to Washington in central Vista. They said they plan to rally parents to attend the board meeting Thursday, when trustees will decide whether to move forward on the plan.
Under the proposal, Washington would begin serving elementary and middle school students starting in the next school year. The district's adult education program would take the Olive campus and give the existing adult-education facility ----- across the street from Vista High School ---- to Palomar High School, the district's independent study program. This would allow the program to grow and merge with the district's home-school program to form a kindergarten-through-12th-grade program.
The move could save the district as much as $500,000 a year because of lower operating and staffing costs.
It would also give educators a chance to reinvent the school. It could become a magnet campus or begin offering programs that other schools don't, said Mike Marcos, the principal at Washington.
"It certainly gives us an opportunity to have a focus or a niche," he said. "It really allows us to offer something unique."
Whatever happens, educators at Olive and Washington will continue to focus on English and math, Deputy Superintendent Sandy Gecewicz said.
What the school will look like academically will be discussed at meetings the district is planning with educators and community members over the next couple of months.
In less than a decade, enrollment at Washington and Olive has dropped from a combined 2,600 students to fewer than 1,100. The change has been largely fueled by federal laws that went into effect in 2002, allowing parents to transfer their children out of schools with low test scores.
A committee of community members, educators and parents developed the proposal over the past several months and plans to present it at the next school board meeting at 7 p.m. Nov. 19 at Foothill Oak Elementary School, 1370 Oak Drive.
The trustees won't vote on the proposal then, but they will let administrators know whether they want school officials to continue looking into the possibility.. The plan probably will come back to the board in February for a final vote, officials said.

NoVe Kitchen & Bar
Bite into a friendly neighborhood spot with a liberal dose of Asian exoticism
The goods: NoVe ("north of Venetian") Kitchen and Bar is a round-the-clock restaurant seeking to create a neighborhood niche on the ground floor of the Omni area's Opera Tower.
Ambience: There's ample outdoor seating with a shaded concrete canopy and doggy water bowl. The indoor dining room is a minimalist affair, with concrete walls, dark wood tables and floor-to-ceiling windows framing views of Margaret Pace Park (and traffic) across the street. A tiny bar has flat-screen TVs and a few high top tables.
The grub: Asian tapas and eclectic Mediterranean from Chef Hiro Terada (Doraku). The "Eurasian" menu includes sushi, Thai and Japanese dishes plus staples like burgers, pastas and salads. Prices are reasonable and portions are large. Starters are $5-$14, mains average $17 and oversized sushi rolls are $10-$18.
Begin with a Japanese small plate like crunchy, spicy kimchi tofu and sea bass marinated in yuzu-miso sauce. Mains include fettuccine tossed with chicken, gnocchi in pink sauce, Thai red curry and plenty of steaks, among them a 14-ounce Kobe NY strip. The signature sushi rolls — large enough to double as a main course — include the Opera Tower (tempura lobster, asparagus, avocado and a spicy tuna mix), the Viper (crab stick, asparagus, tempura flakes and an entire barbecue eel) and the NoVe (lobster tempura, crab stick, cream cheese, spicy mayo and three kind of caviar). There are nine kinds of fried rice including ham and pineapple and a "sumo combo" tossed with beef, chicken, ham and shrimp.
Desserts include a dulce de leche crepe flambéed tableside and strawberry ice cream tempura.
The verdict: A friendly neighborhood spot with a liberal dose of Asian exoticism in a menu that tries to please everyone.

Jockey Garrett Gomez, who fractured his left heel in a paddock mishap
on Jan. 8 which subsequently required reconstructive surgery, won his
first race since the injury in Saturday's second race, stalking the
early pace and guiding the Neil Drysdale-conditioned Smug to a 1 ½
length win going 1 ¼ miles on turf in 1:59.50.
"He pulled pretty good, which makes it tougher, but I can handle
it," said Gomez, North America's Eclipse Award winning rider in 2007
and '08. "I'm happy just to be back. I prepare to win every time I go
out there but the main thing for me right now is that I'm able to handle
this physically and keep the pain under control.
"I worked two horses this morning and it really helped me. I
felt much better and I wasn't limping like I have been when I walked out
to the paddock to ride."
Owned by Robert S. Evans, Smug paid $8.00, $4.20 and $3.00.
According to the Equibase chart, Smug, a 4-year-old Kentucky-bred colt
by El Prado, "…came three wide into the stretch, rallied under left
handed urging to gain the lead in deep stretch and won clear." He
tracked early fractions of 24.20, 48.45, 1:12.30 and 1:35.75.
Smug was making his second start off a nine month layoff and now
sports a 2-0-2 record from seven starts. With the winner's share of
$34,800, his earnings now stand at $78,910.
Gomez, who initiated his comeback on Thursday finishing second
and third with his only two mounts, had no riding engagements Friday.
He has three scheduled mounts today, including Twice the Appeal, who is
the 5-2 morning line favorite in the featured Grade III, $100,000 Tokyo
City Cup.
He is named on three horses at Santa Anita on Sunday,
including Hog's Hollow in the Grade II San Luis Rey Stakes and Cambina
in the Grade II Santa Ana Stakes.
Gomez was North America's leading rider by money-won four consecutive years, 2006, '07, '08 and '09.
