A SUSTAINABILITY assurance line has been launched by HW Fisher.
The Top 30 firm will provide audit and advice services for commercial property owners, helping them identify energy savings and sustainable design.
The audit will be made up of the client's physical infrastructure and its processes -analysing the data to produce a detailed 'Solutions Audit'. This will propose a series of energy saving solutions and investigate the potential for more efficient onsite energy generation.
The costing and return on investment will be gauged, and capital allowances provided by the government will also be considered.
Jae Mather, director of sustainability at HW Fisher, said that commercial property owners and directors often view sustainability as "an expensive luxury", so its advisers are well placed to help understand and present a financial case.
"For us, greater sustainability means not just better energy efficiency, but also better management of the risk posed by future energy price rises. Our aim is to help commercial property owners face down this risk and use the power of sustainability to boost their bottom line."

Last week, we flew to Syracuse, NY so that I could attend my 60th high school reunion and touch base with my family. This photo was taken on our first night there. My sister lives on Little York Lake and we took their pontoon boat out for a sunset cruise.
The next day, I met up with 6 of my bff's from high school for a cruise on the mail boat on Skaneatlas Lake. It was a small boat with tables and chairs so that we could have our lunch. It was fun to watch the delivery of mail to cottages along the lake. The girls at this camp come out and do a dance for their mail.
After the boat cruise, my sister and I headed to Auburn so that I could check out the SDA exhibit, Transgressing Traditions, at the Schweinfurth Art Center. I took photos of some of my favorite pieces. The exhibit consisted of very avant garde art pieces. I loved looking at each one and marveling at the creativity that went into the making of them.
This piece was not so innovative as it was beautiful, layers of printing by Elizabeth Odiorne. Here is a detail:
This piece by Diane Siebels was copiously hand stitched. I forgot to write down the title.
Here is a detail:
This wonderful piece is by Amy Meisner, called Inheritance. She used abandoned needlepoint, vintage doilies, cotton velvet, silk organza, wool. Click any image to see larger.
I have no idea who did this whimsical piece with pins, needles and safety pins.
I am a huge fan of Judith Content's shibori kimonos so I had to have my photo taken with it.
This piece by Georgia Roswell is made from strips of discarded textiles. See the detail for a better idea of the construction.
I loved the graphic quality of this piece. It is all computer generated and printed on polyester and quilted!! By Russ Little.
This piece is so lovely and so organic. It is by Andrea Huffman and consists of variety of textiles and is hand stitched.
There is so much more to see in this exhibit. Click Here for a link to a video of the show.
Continuing with my trip! On Saturday, my little high school class had a picnic. There were 36 in my class in a very rural town in upstate New York. Here are the 17 of us who attended.
On Sunday, my sister and brother-in-law hosted a family gathering. Jim made us a fantastic feast of clams, lobster tail, shrimp, kielbasa, potatoes and corn. So delicious.
We got home on Monday but I have been busy catching up.]]>
I signed up to take Radical Embroidery at Oregon College of Art and Craft. It was a 3 day workshop. It turned out to be not that radical, but I learned a lot about using embroidery as an art form. The instructor was a delightful young woman from the CA bay area, Victoria May. Her website is here. Her work is a bit radical as she has a fondness for the gritty and industrial debris that she finds in her travels. I think that adding delicate embroidery to these found objects serves to confound the viewer.
On the first day, we learned different ways to create line in our work. The piece at the beginning of this post is my sampler. We used Dynaflow paint on canvas to begin our work. Then I added lines in various ways. We used organza in our work. For this line, I painted organza which I tore into strips and couched down. I really like the effect.
The next day, we moved on to working with painted organza layered on canvas and we were to capture some things between the layers.
I had some previously quilted rusted silk which I cut into rectangles. Two pieces are under the organza and the middle one is on top. I am in the process of stitching the quilted silk pieces down. Then, I will add some interesting stitching to the rest of the piece. I am thinking of adding a bit of rust to this in some way.
Then we were introduced to stitching on water color paper. The trick here is to pre-punch your stitching holes with a needle or awl. For my piece, I stained the water color paper with acrylic ink and got some interesting effects by blow drying it. Click on any photo to see it larger.
I am in the process of stitching with variegated thread, following the design created by the ink.
On the last day, I had an idea that I just had to work on using some of the materials that I brought.
First, I painted the canvas with indigo Dynaflow paint. I forgot to get a photo before I started stitching, but you can get an idea from this photo.
I had some indigo fabric with clamped circles. I cut out three circles for the composition. I also had a dark blue shibori organza which has black lines in it. And I also had a piece of Rymplecoth that my friend, Maris, gave me. It is more loosely woven than cheesecloth and is used for cleaning and polishing. She uses it in her felting. I dyed it a dark black. It takes the dye really well.
I used strips of the organza as I wanted some of the painted canvas to show to give a better value change. I ripped some holes in the Rymplecloth so that the organza can poke through.
The top circle is on top of the organza and is couched down and stitched with silver metallic thread.
The other circles are under organza and stitched with the silver thread. I have started doing some stitching on the organza and canvas and then I will tack the Rymple cloth down.
Here is the final layout which looks a bit messy, but I think I know where I am going.
I was feeling a bit overwhelmed earlier this week and wishing my recovery was moving faster. Yesterday, I had Mr C help me get my sewing machine table back where I use it and pulled the Janome up out of hiding. It made me so happy, I almost danced. I think it is a symbol for the life I want to live and now, I am feeling so much better and have been doing better. I think I turned a corner.
All I did was shorten some clothes, but it felt good. My knee didn't like the knee lift, but that will get better.
I took a break to attend a 3 day workshop and I did well, but I was exhausted every night. I have always been a people person, but I spent so much of my recovery holed up with Mr C here in the condo, that I am finding spending a lot of time stimulated by the presence of other people is exhausting for me! Who knew that would every happen to me! I will share some stuff from the workshop later, but I wanted to finish my SFMOMA posting.
Our next stop was at the Calder exhibit which was inside and out. I love his mobiles.
In the outdoor area, there was a beautiful garden wall of ferns and other plants.
Then we were off to Open Ended: Painting and Sculpture since 1900. A couple of Matisse portraits caught my eye. The first is The Girl with the Green Eyes.
This one is Woman With a Hat. This one was done a little earlier than the one above. I thought it was interesting that it had a more impressionistic quality to it. I really like it better, I think.
I love color and the beauty of juxtaposing colors as Josef Albers does in these 4 pieces.
Mr C and I both have an affection for Robert Motherwell's works. His work is so bold and graphic. We own a signed print of his work.
See how exciting this place is. You walk into a room and on every wall is a piece by one of your favorite artists. This being work by Mark Rothko.
And what is not to love about this Diebenkorn, Berkeley #7?
There were several pieces by Clyfford Still. His color use is extraordinary.
This is one of Robert Rauschenberg's gritty pieces.
I was happy to see this collage by Romare Bearden, one of my favorite artists. I was introduced to his work when I lived in North Carolina and was a docent at an art museum that owned a few of his pieces.
By now, I was beginning to feel as if a truck had run over me but I was determined to find the small works by Klee, another favorite artist.
I was happy to find this in the gift shop: Art Inc. by my daughter, Lisa.
There was so much more. I hope to go back again, soon.]]>
One thing I really wanted to do while we were in California was to visit the renovated SFMOMA. It was closed for a long time as they expanded their exhibition space. Mr C used to say the SFMOMA was great architecture and bad art. The main problem was the lack of exhibition space. Well, that has been remedied. It is 5 floors of wondrous art. I had to stop and sit quite often as my stamina was minimal, but I kept going, feeling enriched by the creativity around me. By evening, I could barely get to my hotel room to crash!
We started on the fifth floor with an exhibition of outdoor sculpture. The wire man up there was quite delightful. This work was by an Englishman who created sculptures from natural materials on his solo treks around the world.
Next was this wall covering created by Jongstra, a Dutch fiber artist. She used raw and crafted felt, hand-spun silk, and dried flora. It was huge and in a hallway and difficult to photograph.
In another gallery, we saw these pieces by Andy Warhol and Chuck Close.
This was a different version of his Marilyn work – Reverse Marilyns.
Chuck Close created this portrait using circles in various shades of gray to black. Mesmerizing to look at.
I loved this piece by Frank Stella, so different from his other work, below.
So, I could not wait to get into this gallery! These pieces were in one room.
This very abstracted work always looks so simple, but believe me, it is not easy to do. Wish I had the ability.
These are two pieces by Ellsworth Kelly that could be art quilts – actually, I think I have seen them made into quilts – don't you agree.
I will continue this on another day. I need to get my beauty sleep. I am taking a Radical Embroidery workshop at Oregon College of Art and Craft for the next 3 days. This has been my week to enter back into my Portland life. It has been great, but very tiring. I seem to be better each day. In San Francisco, we stayed at the Sofitel in Redwood City. It was really lovely. This was the view from our room. I enjoyed living in the lap of luxury for a few days.
Here we are in California for the night. We really enjoyed the trip in the new Mercedes, such a difference from the Prius which we did not like for long trips. I made it to the Grants Pass Art Museum and even walked up the stairs which went on forever. I took the elevator down. Photography was not allowed but I snuck in a couple of long shots.
I had to get a close up of Terry Grants Camas Prairie, which I love. The quilt next to it is by Cynthia St. Charles. It has lots of wonderful surface design.
I got to see two views of my new knee when I checked in with my Surgeon this morning.
Ok, it has been a long and busy day for me. Time to crash]]>
After 7 weeks of being diligent with my care and physical therapy, today I graduated. I can get a good bend in my leg to 122°. I can walk fairly gracefully (heh) on my own. I can manage stairs. I am sleeping quite well. Life is pretty good and I think it is time for me to get back to my life. That is me in the Total Knee Gym, getting iced after a rigorous workout.
I had to have x-rays done of my knee today for my appt. with the surgeon on Thursday. Here is how my leg looks in the classy shorts they give you for knee x-rays. You can see my lovely scar. Remember these legs are almost 78 years old! My surgery leg is still a little swollen.
I have a video of my physical therapists playing kazoos and shaking pompoms for my graduation, but it was to big to upload. Here is my certificate:
I started driving and am able to stand for longer periods of time and take back the cooking. Mr C is happy about that!!
Trinity Cathedral is hosting a wonderful exhibit called The Bridge. a ground-breaking exhibition of 47 premier Arab, Persian and Jewish contemporary artists from 15 countries of Muslim, Christian and Jewish traditions. The Bridge, exploring the theme of what "bridges" us to each other, as well as what they hold in common across their religions and cultures, is on view thru August 21 at the Cathedral.
On Saturday, I went to a training for docents. Yesterday evening, we had the opening reception with a huge turnout. The art work is really wonderful. I do my first stint of docenting tomorrow and I should be studying!! It feels really good to get out of my recovery bubble and be out in the world again. Here are a couple examples of the art.
Each one has a story of how the artist is representing the theme.
On Thursday, we are heading south to California to visit Paige and her parents. I can't wait. We plan to stop in Grants Pass so that I can see the SAQA exhibit, Concrete and Grasslands. We always take a couple of days to drive down so we will stop overnight in Yreka, CA.
I am going to try to get back to blogging. I missed getting work into a lot of shows, but I hope to get back in the studio, soon. You can always find me on Facebook or on Instagram.]]>
I decided it was time to check in with my blog readers regarding my new knee. The surgery went very well and I came home the next day. Coming home was a bit daunting. I had such an incredible nursing team at Kaiser. Mr C has been doing a fantastic job helping me through this time. My daughter, Stephanie, brought us enough food for a few days – quiche, chicken pot pies and soup. I have been doing very well in physical therapy and have exceeded the goals that were set for me so far. Next week, I start working in the Kaiser Total Knee gym. Right now I am allowed to only bend my knee to 90°. Next week I will increase that and will be able to use the bicycle in the gym. These are my helpers, the walker and the icing machine that circulates ice water around my knee.
I have to stay on my back at night and I am having some weird pains in my thigh as the numbness dissipates. So, my biggest problem is being a bit tired and low on energy during the day. I do a set of exercises 3 times a day followed by elevation and ice. Here I am doing one of the more passive exercises: passive extension.
Next week I can start using a cane when I am in the condo, but still have to use the walker when I leave.
So all in all, my experience has been very good. The staff at the hospital said I was the poster child for knee replacement!!
Up at the top is the postcard for the SAQA Oregon show at the Rogue Gallery in Medford. I always love to have my work on the publicity!!]]>

S Dylan Sumner-Gardner Profile
The three-star prospect, who is in the midst of his junior season at West Mesquite High School, has recorded 40 tackles, five pass breakups and forced three fumbles. He also has one interception.
Sumner-Gardner was limited early on this season.
"I went down with a knee injury. I was out for two or three games," Sumner-Gardner said in a recent interview with CUTigers. "But I'm good now."
While his current team is rolling right along with a 7-2 record, his future team, Clemson, is doing just as well at 8-1.
"They're doing well," Sumner-Gardner said. "They're dominating every week. They're good."
He keeps in touch with several Clemson coaches, including defensive backs coach Charlie Harbison and defensive coordinator Brent Venables.
"Coach Cheese and I talk about the defense and how I'm playing and how he can't wait for me to get to Clemson," Sumner-Gardner said.
With Venables, "He talks to me about the things I see with the defense, if there's anything that I think needs to be improved."
Sumner-Gardner hasn't been back to Clemson since his camp visit earlier this summer.
When might he return to Tigertown?
"I think it's going to be in the summer, because we're in the middle of a playoff run right now."
Since his June commitment to Clemson, a few other schools have been in contact, including Alabama, LSU, Georgia, Texas A&M, Oregon, Mississippi State, Ole Miss and West Virginia. But he doesn't know of any new offers since the Clemson pledge.

I have been teaching cello lessons, both privately and in schools, since 2003. I have taught students of all levels, ages 4-80. I have an education from various aspects of music, with a BA in musicology from Yale, a MM in cello performance from the Mannes College of Music, and cello performance studies at the SUNY Purchase Conservatory of Music. I maintain an active performing schedule in the New York area, where I play with a trio, a string quartet, and various other ensembles. I have been on the teaching faculties of the Mannes College of Music, the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music, Creative Music and Art (Monroe, CT), and the Amadeus Conservatory of Music (Chappaqua).
I am a recent graduate of the Monclair State University Music Education Master's program. I also graduated from William Paterson University with a Bachelor of Music in Music Education. My primary instrument is the violin. My main secondary instrument is the piano. I currently perform with the Adelphi Orchestra. I have taught in the New Jersey public school system. I have been teaching private piano and violin lessons for about 6 years.
I am a fun and easy-going instructor and I love working with people. In 2015, I graduated from SUNY Fredonia with a Bachelor of Music degree in Viola Performances. Asides from viola, I also play piano and drums at local churches.
I'm a passionate, motivated teacher who loves with students of all ability levels and trying to encourage a love of music in my students. I am currently working towards a BM double degree in Music Education and Violin Performance at Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University. I've had the opportunity to play all over the world through my youth orchestra and I have had even greater opportunites through my college. This spring I will be performing at the Avery Fischer Hall in New York with the Rutgers Symphony Orchestra.
I completed my Master's degree at Tbilisi State Conservatoire under the guidance of Prof. Tamara Gabarashvili (Tchaikovsky competition 5th prize 1966). Since 2004 until 2015 I was a principal cellist of Tbilisi Opera and Ballet State Theater. Since 2004 I am teaching private cello lessons and also working at music schools and pre-school places, and I am also a member of a string quartet "Iberi." I actively perform chamber music, give solo concerts and participate in different music festivals.

Once you've met with your teacher for your risk free trial lesson, continuing with Musika is easy! If you are satisfied with your lesson, all you have to do is register with us to continue! The trial will count as your first lesson if you continue, however, with our Great Match Guarantee™ if for any reason you decide not to continue then the trial is FREE. Go ahead give it a try, you really have nothing to lose.
Don't just take our word for it. We hold the highest possible A+ rating from the nations foremost online reliability source: The BBB. We are proud of this rating and value the message it carries. The BBB has affirmed Musika as a reliable, trustworthy, safe business to work with, and we have the customer feedback to support this. We are continually working to make sure that Musika is a business you can trust.
Background checks available on instructors. Instructor can opt to have a background check on file. You can request to only be connected with teachers that have a check. The choice is yours.
All skill levels and ages are welcomed by Musika. It is never to late to start learning, and the teachers in our network work with adult students of all ages and abilities. Whether you are an advanced student who wants to further their studies, or a complete beginner who is ready to dive into an instrument, adult lessons can be an extremely fun and fulfilling experience.
While advanced students may choose to buy a cello, beginner students will need to decide whether they would like to purchase or rent. Most all musical instrument stores will have a rental program where students can pay monthly for their instruments. Rentals for beginners offer many benefits. For children, they will be able to easily move up in size as they grow. Your teacher will be able to let you know what size is appropriate to start with. Beginning adults will almost always start with a full size cello, but renting is less of a financial commitment than buying a cello.
Music lessons are tailored to each students' specific needs. All students are different, and will make progress using different methods. The teachers in our network will work with the students on a case by base basis, ensuring that each student works to their highest ability. All lessons will be comprised of some variation of learning to read music, learning how to play the instrument technically, and learning to progress in their musicianship. While Musika does not mandate a particular style of teaching, if there is a method you are interested in we will do our best to match you with a teacher in our network that specializes in that area.
Musika offers customized one-on-one music lessons at your home - a time saving solution for busy parents and students. The convenience of in-home cello lessons allows you to save time without having to transport your child to class, allows your child to maximize their busy schedule, and provides a safe and familiar environment in which to learn.
Because of the cello's large size, our recommended starting age is seven or eight, although exceptions can certainly be made for a younger student who is capable of handling the instrument properly and who has sufficient strength in the fingers and hands. The cello is also an excellent instrument for older students who have some experience with other members of the string family, or even as a beginning instrument.
Review by Roselynbrown
After moving from NY and parting from our amazing piano instructor, we thought we couldn't find a piano teacher close to what we knew. We are happy to say Musika matched us up with someone professional and friendly who enjoys teaching younger students. Thank you! We definitely recommend Kuan as a piano instructor :)
Review by Brianne Hancock
Martina has been teaching our daughter violin since early 2015. Every time our daughter has a lesson she comes away in such a great mood - she really enjoys her lessons! Martina is positive and encouraging and adjusts her teaching to help our daughter learn the best way for her learning needs. We were curious about how online lessons would work, and it turns out that they work really well. The 1:1 time and ability to teach from a distance make it work just as well as in person. We've had moves and schedule changes and Martina has been very flexible for us - which made such a big difference in making violin lessons accessible. Absolutely recommend her!
Review by Alamu Vinai
Usually I don't write reviews. I am compelled to write for Feng. I've experience finding/working with many music teachers over the years for different instruments (piano, flute, sax) for kids. I think Feng is the best, he is so passionate about music, he encourages the kids. He teaches thoroughly - you can tell he knows lot about saxophone. I would definitely recommend Feng!!
Review by Jane A.
I started taking voice lessons from Ali when I was 19 and a sophomore in college. Though I was hesitant to be starting "late", I felt very comfortable with Ali and her teaching style. We identified several key issues that really made a difference and improved my voice technique. It was fun to sing popular, beautiful songs in our recital! If only I lived in Los Angeles, I would still be a student. Highly recommended!
Review by Gillian
Vince is a great drum teacher for my 8 year old son. We go to his house where he has a studio setup with a huge drum set. He has been very patient but really holds my son responsible for learning the right way to play. After about 5 lessons, my son is playing some rhythms on the drums and reading music. He looks forward to his lessons with Vince.

"Mr. Richard has been absolutely perfect for our very active two boys. He has been an excellent fit for gauging and keeping their interest far beyond what we had imagined. Our boys actually argue over who gets to go first. Mr. Richard knocks it out of the park when it comes to exceeding our expectations"
Review by Chrystal
I was skeptical at first not knowing what I was getting my self into.. I am very happy that I forced myself to get into voice lessons because Eli is an awsome voice coach.. Very skillful and he helps you reach the goal you are trying to reach.. He is also very helpful with getting you to open up and come out of your shell and being heard.. I would and I already have recommended friends and family to sign up with Eli if they're serious about singing..
Review by Carol A
"Lynn is my music hero! She can listen to any song and write down the chords. She will adjust to make it easier or harder whatever your abilities. I have a busy schedule and often don't have time to practice between lessons and she is cool with that. She also will adjust lesson times when she is able which fits my hectic schedule. I'm glad my first guitar teacher "fired" me ....that allowed me to meet Lynn." - Carol A., M.D., Aug 2015
Review by Timothyfullard
We've only had a few lessons with Elisa, but so far we really like her. She has a lot of great suggestions for solo pieces as well as orchestral music that involves all 3 of my boys, while also including some Christian music that we can play at church. She is very patient in explaining the lessons and encouraging!
Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.Ok
Are you sure that's your only availability? The more availability you easier it will be to arrange a teacher for you.

I assumed the info would be displayed on screen and I sat waiting on the same page for a while, when I decided to check my email a minute later, the code was already there so be sure to check your email and not stay on the same page. I thought that it would have been on their webpage. The code worked first time. Thank you

Although they are both clothing retailers and happen to share a numeral in their respective names, Forever 21 and rue21 are independent companies with no affiliation to one another. The two companies are, in fact, competitors.Continue Reading
As of 2014, one of the primary differences between the two companies is their size and profitability, according to Forbes. Forever 21 is a much larger corporation, employing over 30,000 individuals, with a revenue of over $3.85 billion. By comparison, rue21 employs only 2,340 people and has a market cap of $741 million.
Considered a specialty retailer that specifically focuses on selling affordable, low-cost merchandise to populations without access to larger or more expensive brands, rue21 does not place its logo on any of its apparel, nor does it engage in conventional advertising; most of its marketing is achieved via word of mouth. As such, its primary competitors are considered to be mass retailers, such as Wal-Mart, who typically target the same lower-income demographic but have far larger advertising budgets and can partner with celebrities such as Miley Cyrus to create lines of clothing and accessories that are popular but still inexpensive.
Forever 21, by contrast, focuses on providing a more upscale line of men's and women's apparel. It is more widespread, with over 480 stores in the U.S., Canada, the Philippines, Japan, South Korea and Europe. It operates under different names, including Forever 21, XXI Forever, For Love 21, Heritage 1981 and Reference, each targeted to a different demographic or locale.Learn more about Clothing

Clothing sold by Forever 21 is considered junior sizes, which have a more narrow cut and tend to be shorter than misses or women's sizes. The clothes are designed to fit teenagers or young women, who generally have smaller curves. It is recommended that adults buy a size larger than they normally wear when buying junior-sized clothing.Full Answer >

November sees the return of one of London's most bumpin' underground house nights. Here at [socialise] we've been pushing the jacking sound in the intimate and cosy loft of the Charterhouse Bar in Farringdon for just under a year now. As always you can expect to hear some seriously groove orientated house from pioneers such as Joey Youngman, Bryan Jones and Jason Hodges right through to Tommy Largo and Craig Hamilton all with that inimitable bump as well as a wallop of Wiggle's deep, basement-shaking tech-house sound thrown in for good measure.
If you're interested in hearing about our future events, please join our Facebook group on the link provided below as it would be great to have more like-minded people down to add to our already appreciative crowd. It's always a great party, fuelled by some reasonably priced booze with the added bonus that it's FREE ALL NIGHT.
If this is your sound, then it's a great way to spend your weekend and we hope to see you there.

3-Day Forecast
HOWARD COUNTY, Ind. – A central-Indiana school district is on high alert after unsafe levels of lead were discovered in its water.
As we've seen in places like Flint, Michigan, it's a dangerous situation leading to a lot of questions and concerns.
The high level of lead was detected in one classroom, from one faucet, at Eastern High School in Eastern Howard School Corporation.
That was the last week of January. Since then, that water was shut off and more tests were run.
This week, the update was startling. No one can confirm for sure where that lead is coming from.
RELATED | Michigan governor on Flint water: 'I let you down'
One parent – who has five kids in this school district – says there is a lot at stake.
"It scares me, because of the developmental issues that lead causes in children," Eric Shupperd said. "When your kid's in school, you're trusting (the school) to serve them food and water that's healthy."
Superintendent Dr. Tracy Caddell says it could be from one school pipe feeding into that classroom, but it could also be from somewhere else.
"Or it could be at the point of origin," Dr. Caddell said. "The town of Greentown actually has lead in their water."
Dr. Caddell says a number of Greentown homes got notice last fall that there was lead in the water. That's actually what sparked the district to voluntarily test its water.
The town says the lead is from old pipes, but Dr. Caddell says it's old pipes being affected by the town's corrosive water.
Regardless of the cause, the concern right now is possible alternate sources of water could be affected.
"We just know know, and it's all about the kids' safety," Dr. Caddell said. "We have to make sure these kids are absolutely protected."
In a letter sent out to parents, the district spelled out a number of precautions involving the water in every school.
The Howard County Health Department said Friday it is now safe for students to wash their hands – they won't be exposed to lead that way. But because they still don't know where the lead is coming from, for the time being, every water fountain in the district is blocked from use.
For now, they're being given bottled water, and on the bright side…
"Our kids are more hydrated than they've ever been, because they love getting a free bottle of water," Dr. Caddell said.
This process will last at least a couple more weeks, as the district studies each and every pipe in every building and the Howard County Health Department works with it to discover the source of the lead.

WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison flew into war-ravaged Somalia on Tuesday for an unannounced stay inside the fortified compound of the Mogadishu airport, the first visit by a member of Congress since the Obama administration recognized the new government of President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.
The Minneapolis Democrat, whose district includes 32,000 people of Somali descent, described it as a humanitarian trip to discuss refugee problems and U.S. money transfers, many of them from relatives in Minnesota.
For Ellison, the trip continued a growing legacy of visits to global trouble spots, including Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt and Congo. In 2009, he and then-Sen. John Kerry were among the first U.S. government officials in more than three years to enter the Gaza Strip, where Ellison was filmed by Arab television stations carrying boxes of aid materials.
The next day, he went to Israeli towns that had suffered rocket attacks from Gaza.
Ellison said in a telephone interview Tuesday that he hoped his presence in Somalia would send a message to the world that Somalia is stabilizing, with the help of its global diaspora of citizens.
"It's something I think is important to do," said Ellison, speaking from Nairobi, Kenya, before heading back to Minnesota. "It's important to help emerging democracies maintain their course toward being free, democratic, prosperous nations."
Ellison's Africa journey coincides with that of U.S. Rep. Betty McCollum, a St. Paul Democrat who is on a five-day trip to South Sudan and Tanzania sponsored by the international relief organization CARE.
Ellison's office said his trip is being sponsored by the American Refugee Committee, an international nonprofit with a presence in Somalia. He met with the group's director in Somalia, as well as with Mohamud, the mayor of Mogadishu, the Somali Chamber of Commerce and Somali-Americans from Minneapolis.
Among them was Aynte Abdi, a Minnesota-trained journalist who has returned to Somalia to head a think tank called the Heritage Institute for Policy Studies. "I'm trying to contribute to the recovery phase of our country," Abdi said from Nairobi, where he and Ellison, the first Muslim in Congress, relaxed over evening tea.
Ellison said there was no advance notice of the trip for security reasons, which also restricted him to an airport compound guarded by African Union soldiers who have helped push Al-Shabab fighters out of the city.
Al-Shabab, a once-formidable Islamic group that succeeded in recruiting Somali-American youths from Minnesota, has been reduced to a "little guerrilla outfit," Ellison said. While the group can still mount attacks, he said, "what it can't do is contend with the government for power. They're getting weaker every day."
Ellison said that maintaining that stability will require the help of the international community and returning expatriates like Abdi, who studied at Metropolitan State University in the Twin Cities: "They have this awesome diasporic community — all these people who gained expertise all around the world."
Another focus of Ellison's trip is money, in particular the troubled remittance industry that war- and drought-stricken Somalis rely on to live. "This is the lifeblood of the country," he said.
For many Somalis and their U.S. relatives, money transfers have been restricted by expanding anti-terrorism laws aimed at blocking the flow of funds to militant anti-Western groups such as Al-Shabab.
Many Somali money-transfer companies, known as hawalas, have been forced to shut down because of the reluctance of U.S. banks to risk doing business with them. The effects, Ellison said, have been devastating for Somalis and Somali-Americans in Minnesota, home to one of the largest Somali refugee populations in the nation. "These are their parents, their children and their loved ones," Ellison said.
In December, Ellison and Rep. Erik Paulsen, R-Minn., introduced legislation that would address the problem by simplifying oversight for money services businesses and other nonbank financial institutions.
The importance of the Minnesota-Somali relationship was underscored by Mohamud, who visited the Twin Cities last month immediately after then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton formally recognized his government.
