Fixed-Price - Entry Level ($) - Est. Budget: $3,000 - PostedSkills: iPad App Development Android App Development iOS Development iPhone App Development
Looking for a team to develop an app and a minimal backend for our wearable Electrocardiogram (ECG) device. It will be very similar to the Garmin connect app, except the ECG will give more detailed and real time information than a simple heart rate monitor. First project scope will be to develop an Android app for phone and tablet, plus a minimal back end, but there will be future jobs for iPhone/iPad version, and the full back end and web app. All work can be in English, but must have multi language support built in, so that I can quickly translate this app into Japanese. SDK will be provided to connect and get data from the device. Must have experience with Bluetooth low energy devices. Wireframe is attached, and function requirement is available for applicants. Applicants should have some UI and UX experience, enough to critique and discuss my designs and make necessary improvements and adjustments.

I saw a cool picture on Pinterest the other day of Raised Salt Painting done by One Perfect Day. I was looking for a simple art activity to do with the girls and this looked perfect. We did not have liquid watercolor paint so we just used food coloring mixed with water which most people already have at home. We had some unexpected results with this dripping salt painting which I think turned out pretty cool. Judge for yourself.
Supplies you will need:
- Paper (white or black)
- Salt
- Water mixed with food coloring (we made 4 colors)
- Droppers or pipettes
In the finished products below, you can see how the texture of the salt really comes through and leaves a trail even in the places where they had not glued. I am excited to try this again with liquid watercolors.
Thanks to One Perfect Day for the inspiration!

Traditional Bath Collection Features WaterSense-labeled Products
INDIANAPOLIS - Brizo®, the fashion faucet brand, recently unveiled a classic from the past featuring up-to-date "green" technology. The Tresa® bath collection features traditional classic design inspired by the earliest of European fountains with water conservation benefits that meet today's consumers' needs.
"The design of the Tresa collection harkens back to a different era, but its functionality is all about meeting modern needs," said Laura Brooks, Brizo senior brand manager. "The Tresa collection allows homeowners who seek fashion-forward design and performance to create a beautiful, indulgent experience in the bath while remaining environmentally responsible."
The Tresa lavatory faucets are labeled by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as water-efficient with an official WaterSense® designation. The lavatory faucets flow at 1.5 gallons per minute (gpm) at 60 pounds per square inch (psi), saving approximately 30 percent of water over its 2.2 gpm counterparts. In addition, discerning homeowners who seek a water-efficient shower system without sacrificing design, comfort or performance have the option of a medium flow thermostatic shower system. Body sprays with H2Okinetic Technology® flow at a rate of 1.6 gpm and provide a luxury feel while delivering 36 percent less water than conventional shower systems.
The Tresa collection encompasses an expansive suite of coordinated products with "old world" European influence: a single-hole, single-handle vessel deck with an optional riser; a single-hole, two-handle lavatory; a widespread lavatory; a wall mount lavatory; a three- and four-hole roman tub; and a widespread bridge lavatory - a first for Brizo. The collection offers a choice of cross or lever handles. For the shower, homeowners may choose from a medium or high flow thermostatic shower - with customizable options such as body sprays with H2Okinetic Technology. A complete line of coordinated bath accessories rounds out the extensive Tresa collection.
Tresa collection lavatories are WaterSense® labeled[1] and compliant with low lead legislation.[2] The collection is available in a variety of finishes including Polished Chrome, Brilliance® Brushed Nickel, Brilliance® Brushed Bronze and the popular Venetian Bronze®.
[1] WaterSense® is a registered mark of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
[2] California Health and Safety Code 116875 (AB 1953) and Vermont Law No. 193 (S152) and upcoming national legislation mandate that the weighted average lead content in pipes, fittings and fixtures used to convey drinking water cannot exceed 0.25% on wetted surfaces.

Post-Boston security doesn't dampen spirits at Lakefront Marathon
Nearly six months after the deadly bomb attack on the Boston Marathon, runners in Sunday's Milwaukee Lakefront Marathon took the heightened security measures in stride.
The Boston Marathon bombers had used backpacks on April 15 to smuggle in the two pressure cooker bombs they set off near the finish line, killing three people and injuring an estimated 264.
To prevent similar attacks in Milwaukee, the Lakefront Marathon's organizers beefed up police presence at the race, limited finish line access to racers only and required permission from a race official for runners to re-enter the area.
Volunteers checked spectators' backpacks for the first time. Runners weren't allowed to keep personal items along the race route and couldn't bring their own backpacks — instead, they had to stow their belongings in numbered gear bags they picked up with their race packets.
"These are dropped off with trucks at the start area, driven to the finish area and picked up afterwards by runners," race spokesman Matt Braun said, adding that no one complained when organizers explained why the rules were changed.
Race organizers had six months to learn from precautions taken at other marathons around the country, and the Green Bay Marathon and the Summerfest Rock 'n Sole Run were leading examples, Lakefront Marathon race director Jon Mueller said.
"There's a little extra police. We never know if there's a copycat out there," Mueller said. "We asked the residential areas to be our eyes and ears."
Braun said marathons in New York and Washington have banned the CamelBak-style water backpacks that runners strap on and drink from during the race and asked runners to use clear bags instead of backpacks.
The Lakefront Marathon organizers didn't think that was necessary, Mueller said. However, they partnered with the Milwaukee Police Department's endurance athletic club, which sent eight to 10 officers to make sure spectators stayed out of the runners' area.
Runners said even at smaller marathons like the one in Milwaukee, the Boston Marathon bombing always will be at the back of their minds.
"I noticed it was a little different, but I think they do a very good job. I never felt unsafe," said Ryan Meissen of Mukwonago, who won Sunday's Lakefront Marathon, just as he did in 2009.
"This is definitely more security than it has been, more police out there," Meissen said, but "I think they struck a real good balance."
Runner Amanda Daws of Milwaukee agreed, saying the changes didn't feel like a hassle because organizers were good at informing runners ahead of time.
"Having your bag the night before really helped," she said. "We received emails every week or every other week reminding you about the rules."
Even so, the need to take security precautions casts a shadow over a sport that prides itself on its sense of community.
"The sport is based around camaraderie, so the whole thing kind of shakes that notion," Daws said.
But local runners still like the "small town" feel of the Milwaukee marathon, where check-in is less of a logistical hassle, where they see friends during the race and where spectators celebrate runners who finish, even if they're not in first place.
Meissen said his co-workers at U.S. Bank may give him some extra attention at work Monday because of his win. He said the thought of them giving him a hard time if he didn't win helped him push through in the end.
"I was hurting pretty bad, but I knew I wasn't going to hear the end of it, so I had to keep going," he laughed. "Some of the people I work with think every race I'm in, I have to win. They laugh if I come in second."
He planned to celebrate his win in true Wisconsin fashion — by watching the Packers, eating pizza and drinking beer.
"You gotta have a little fun," he said. "Otherwise, why would you be here?"

EFI holds the patent for software developed by MIT professor William Schreiber, which has been to licensed to around 20 companies over the last 10 years, including Apple Computer and Adobe Systems. Both EFI and MIT share royalties from the software licences.
The lawsuit, filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Texarkana Division, alleges that the 94 companies have illegally incorporated the software into a number of consumer devices, including digital cameras and photo scanners. The case was filed in the Texas court because it is a more central venue with a reputation for expediency in large cases, according to EFI vice-president of strategic relations Jim Etheridge.
The plaintiffs want the defendants to pay back licensing fees before the case ever heads to trial, he said. Under law, those found guilty of patent violation can be held accountable for back fees of up to six years.
"We are not trying to put anyone out of business or stop them from shipping their product. We just want our licensing money," said Etheridge.
The patent for the software expires this year and will then enter the public domain.
EFI sent out letters to the companies four to five months ago, making them aware of the patent infringement, and asking them to pay back royalty fees, Etheridge said. After receiving no response, the company decided to take legal action.
"I have a feeling they'll pay attention this time," he said. "But we are interested in resolving issues amicably."
Other defendants in the case include Lotus Software, Dell Computer, Sony Electronics, Olympus America and Polaroid.

I don't want to set the precedent that it's "okay" just to ask for someone's email because "oh i knew them from x game from 5 years ago". I'm sure there has to be someone who knows more information, it would be better to ask someone who knew him personally (if not here, you can try the private server forums, you may have better luck there). Good luck on your search.
That being said if there's a legitimate reason go ahead and shoot me a PM.
Well, regardless over my post count and join date, I'm asking on behalf the guild leader of

has disappeared without a word. As you can see (if you go to the profile page the above user provided), she's posting on his page quite often every once in a while, knowing full-well that he doesn't log in; she said he forgot his log-in information a while before he disappeared.
No, she didn't ask me to search for him; I'm doing it because she and I are really good friends and I just want to help her find that player, mainly because she brings him up almost everyday (if not every week) and becomes emotional over it.
Sure, if sending you (admin) a PM increases the chances of finding him, then yeah I'll go ahead and do that.
The reason I've never joined here was because I used the forums over at Ntreev/SGI/Gamerage more frequently than here; and I frankly didn't see the point of using two different forums for the same game at the time, and I still don't; I'm just asking around here because the other forum is dead now.
I was thinking about asking at the private server forums, but I figured if no one here knows, how would they know? However, I'll try anyway if I'm wasting my time trying here.
Edit: So...I went to your profile, and cannot find any option to send you a private message. Am I supposed to just post at your comment section (or w/e it's called)? Other people would see it, wouldn't they? If that even matters.

Skip to comments.Perry and the Profs - He picked the right fight
Posted on 09/10/2011 9:08:18 AM PDT by smoothsailing
September 19, 2011, Vol. 17, No. 01
If you want a glimpse of the way Rick Perry operates as an executive and a politician, consider the issue of higher education reform in Texas, which no one in Texas knew was an issue until Perry decided to make it one.
In his 30-year public career, Perryhow to put this delicately?has shown no sign of being tortured by a gnawing intellectual curiosity. Hes not the sort of person youll find reading The Wealth of Nations for the seventh time, said Brooke Rollins, formerly Perrys policy director and now president of the Texas Public Policy Foundation, a free-market research group closely allied with Perry. At Texas A&M he majored in animal science and escaped with a grade point average a bit over 2.0. (Perrys A&M transcript was leaked last month to the left-wing blog Huffington Post by a source in Texas, presumably not his mom. How his GPA compares with Barack Obamas is unknown, since no one in higher education has thought to leak Obamas transcript to a right-wing blog.)
Perry expends his considerable intelligence instead on using political power and, what amounts to the same thing, picking fights with his political adversaries. When Rollins came to Perry in 2007 with a radical and comprehensive proposal to overhaul higher education in the state, Rollins says the governor quickly understood the potential of the issue, not only politically but on its merits. The state operates more than 100 colleges, universities, technical schools, and two-year community colleges, organized into six separate systems. As in other states, public higher education in Texas is scattered, expensive, poorly monitored, and top heavy with administrators, even as it subjects students to often large annual tuition increases without a compensatory increase in educational quality.
Perrys first poke at this sclerotic establishment came early in his first term. He suggested converting the money that the state gives to public colleges and universities into individual grants handed straight to students. Money is power, and Perrys idea was to place the power in the hands of consumers, as he put it, rather than the administrators, to increase competition among schools and thereby lower costs and increase quality. Young fertile minds [should be] empowered, he said at the time, to pursue their dreams regardless of family income, the color of their skin, or the sound of their last name.
The higher ed establishment, led by regents of the University of Texas system, rebelled, and the legislature, well-wired with the systems allies, agreed, and the proposal died. But Perry continued to poke. College graduation rates in Texas are unusually low, and the gaps among whites, blacks, and Hispanics are unusually high. Nationwide 38 percent of American adults (age 25-64) have a post-secondary degree; in Texas the figure is 31 percent. So Perry proposed Outcomes-based Funding, tying the amount of aid a school receives to the number of students it graduates. To keep a school from lowering its standards to increase its graduation rates, he suggested giving an exit exam to all students receiving a B.A. Students wouldnt have to pass the exam to get their degree, but the information yielded by such a testhow much learning is going on around here?would be useful, mostly to reformers. The proposal was seen, correctly, as a threat to the status quo, which has so far successfully fought it off.
The proposals Rollins brought to Perry in 2007 turned on the same themes ofapologizing in advance for the buzzwordsaccountability and transparency: collecting information about how much students learn and how well schools function, and holding the schools responsible for the results. His priority has been putting students back into the drivers seat, Rollins said. Perry said he hoped to apply the cost-benefit logic of business to public higher education. He incorporated Rollinss ideas into a package of reforms and called a higher education summit to build support.
The reforms attacked the establishment from multiple angles. They would require schools to expand their websites to make vast amounts of new information available to students. For the first time, professors would be required to post course syllabi online. To suss out slackers among the faculty, schools would post every teachers salary and benefits along with the average number of students and course hours they taught every year. A summary of student evaluations would be posted too, and the average number of As and Bs professors handed out, to guard against grade inflation. Before choosing a particular school or enrolling in a major, students would be given a list of the specific skills or knowledge that they could expect to learn, as well as the average starting salaries of students who had graduated from a similar course of study.
Perry also suggested separating teaching budgets from research budgets, as a way of encouraging teachers to teach and researchers to do research. Tenure would be granted only to teachers who spent a large majority of their time teaching; a defined percentage of tenure jobs would go to researchers, who would concentrate on pure research. A system of cash awards and other incentives would compensate professors who successfully taught a large number of students.
Any businessman in a profit-seeking enterprise would see ideas like pay for performance as unremarkable, but they overwhelm the delicate sensibilities of people who have spent their professional lives on campus, where the word nonprofit is meant to act as a firewall against the unpleasantness of commercial life. Texas Governor Treats Colleges Like Businesses, headlined the Chronicle of Higher Educationa sentence sure to induce aneurysms in faculty lounges from El Paso to Galveston. The outrage was deafening, especially when university regents began acting on the recommendations. The Texas A&M system, for example, which includes a dozen schools, posted a spreadsheet on its website evaluating teacher performance on a cost-benefit basis.
Very simplistic and potentially very dangerous, an official of the American Association of University Professors said. This is . . . simplistic, said the dean of faculties at A&M. Simplistic, said the Houston Chronicle. A group of former regents and wealthy school boosters organized a pressure group to oppose -Perrys reforms. The group hired Karen Hughes, a close aide to the second President Bush, as press spokesman. The rage at Perry from within the establishment has taken many forms: You think its easy stealing someones college transcript?
The protests might have been more effective except that Perry, for the last decade, has been seeding Texas higher education with like-minded reformers (cronies too). By 2009 he had appointed every regent in the state. The chancellor of A&M who issued the cost-benefit report, for example, was a former chief of staff of the governor. At least three campus presidents have been pressured to resign in recent years, to make way for Perry appointeesall Republican businessmen. A particularly popular (and vocal) vice president of student affairs at the University of Texas was removed and replaced by . . . a retired Marine Corps general.
The appointees werent as pliant as Perry might have wished. The implementation of the reforms has been difficult and at times dilatory. Perry barrels on. In his state of the state address this spring, he urged administrators to develop a four-year bachelors degree that would cost less than $10,000 including textbooks. The discount degree, he said, would be a bold, Texas-style solution to the problem of rapidly rising tuition. (The average in-state cost of a four-year degree in Texas, including books, is roughly $30,000.) After the goal was declared impossible by Perrys critics, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board published a plan to lower costs dramatically: greater use of online classes and open-source course materials, accelerated or staggered student schedules, fuller integration of four- and two-year colleges, and more.
Perrys admirers praise his sure-footednesshis ability to sense cultural trends before others do and turn them to his political advantage. He was the first national politician to ally himself to the Tea Party movement in 2009, a move thats just now paying off. He caught the mounting anxiety among middle-income parents about college costs early on. Most American parents now say that a college degree will be essential for their childrens future success; at the same time, according to a new Pew Foundation poll, only 22 percent of Americans believe that most people can afford to send their kids to college. And 57 percent describe the quality of American higher education as only fair or poor. To address this anxiety Perrys opponents offer more government subsidies, which in turn provide an incentive for schools to raise their pricesan attempt to douse the fire with gasoline. Perrys ideas are cheaper, more comprehensive, more imaginative, and more likely to work.
And they have a good chance of being put into action. In late August, Perry scored another significant, if partial, victory. The University of Texas regents approved an action plan proposed by the systems chancellor, who isnt a Perry appointee. The plan is a compromise, but it incorporates many of Perrys ideas, including some of the most radical, such as pay for performance and learning contracts between schools and their students. Amazingly, the plan has won support from both the right (Brooke Rollinss Texas Public Policy Foundation) and left (Karen Hughess group).
Reforms like these would have been unthinkable 10 years ago, before Perry picked up his stick and started poking the system until it had to respond. Its been a remarkable display of political entrepreneurship: Create an issue, define it on your terms, cultivate public support, and your opponents, who never saw it coming, will have to go along, even if only partwayat first.

Good! I haven't decided on Perry, but I'm sick to death of leftist academics guiding the destruction of this country and culture. I welcome all conservatives to the fight.
The bottom line is that Texas, which has some of the lowest (publicly-funded) college tuition rates in the nation, for both in- and out-of-state students did not maintain that distinction by accident or by spending a lot of taxpayer money. Perry made sure actual costs stayed low, instead of letting them balloon as in other states.
That the money spent and quality of education are not directly related has been shown many times.
Perry, the anti-obama. That's all I need to know.
Thanks for getting this info out, smoothsailing!
I really like what Rick Perry has been doing for higher education.
I LOVE the Western Governor's University where he worked with other governors to propose and implement a low cost educational alternative to higher ed students and to those already in the work force. I have never seen a university set up like that either, distance learning or otherwise.
Here is a youtube video of Rick Perry announcing the start of Western Governors University of Texas:
Here is the website for Western Governors University Texas:
I also like the "College Credit for Heroes" program Rick Perry put into place in Texas which, I haven't forgotten smoothsailing, I learned about first from you here at FR! LOL
Thanks to this program, military men and women don't have to spend additional time and money getting re-educated (or better educated) to re-enter the private workforce. With Texas colleges and universities offering quicker routes through a degree based on military experience and courses or classes taken while they were serving our country, this program is a sensible way of keeping college costs down for military active duty, veterans, and retired military people. It just makes sense. Plus, I like it personally because it's just another note of military support which Rick Perry has always shown (the ONE area where I associate him very much with G.W. and his love for military men and woman). Can you tell we are retired military? LOL
I know you know about this, smoothsailing, but if anyone else was interested and wanted to know more about this program, here is Rick Perry's announcement of the College Credit for Heroes Program:
Here's a direct link to the youtube video where Rick Perry announced the College Credit for Heroes Program.
Yep, Perry may have been a bit ham-fisted about it, but he sure picked a good issue here.
IF you'd rather NOT be pinged FReepmail me.
IF you'd like to be added FReepmail me. Thanks.
Perry/Rubio would be tough to beat, IMO.
Thanks. That's helpful as I'm still undecided.
Something I didn't know about Governor Perry. Very very impressive, to say the least.
Very good! Now if this could be started across the nation.
At least so far the PDS coyotes have not crawled from under their rock, then again how could you knock Perry for this?
No kidding, because it was a STATE exam. Here is what they should do, and if you want to hear the educrats howl, this would really do it. It's also why Perry won't do it.
The principal reason Americans support public education is to prepare children to find employment as adults. All that stuff about literacy, roundedness, or good citizenship pales compared to the overwhelming need to acquire the credentials with which to find a job. Parents deprive themselves for decades, only to send their child to a college or university, with nearly half the coursework being unnecessary or even counterproductive and a substantial fraction more soon forgotten. Why?
Credentials. This entire system is built around the power to control who gains credentials. And who controls that game but a claque of hardened socialists committed to destroying the foundations of Western Civilization! With all that cost, all that work, and all that time spent for a rotten product, do they provide a guarantee?
There is a very simple solution to this problem, one that could bring the entire edifice crashing to its knees: A competitive system of private credentials.
Envision a small shop in a strip mall: "We Test." We Test tests, and how. We Test tests are no joke, indeed; they're hard. REALLY hard. We Test guarantees that any person who can pass their tests can perform as specified with an insured guarantee. If the person you hire fails to perform to those specifications within the term of the guarantee, We Test pays the cost of hiring and training a replacement.
Any human then could use any means imaginable to acquire the necessary knowledge to pass We Test tests. Any school would do, no accreditation required. The Internet is loaded with coursework and curricula, libraries and lab-simulators. Any human with the drive and intelligence to learn on their own could then qualify for a job. No saving for decades, no brainwashing, completely transferable work, at any pace one can withstand. Any employer could then simply select from a menu of We Test specifications instead of a diploma, at any level. We Test tests.
One would think that this should have happened a long time ago, but in fact there is one thing standing in the way that makes the realization of this seeming inevitability a matter of now or never.
State licensing requires degreed credentials obtainable only at said profligate, bureaucratic and unaccountable institutions charging outrageous fees and demanding excessive time as only a State monopoly could command. Why not just amend the legislation specifying education for state licensure by adding the simple words, "or equivalent"?
As an example of how little it would take, consider my wife. She just passed her board certification exam as a Clinical Nurse Specialist in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit. She walked into H&R Block, sat at a computer, took a three-hour exam harder than anything she'd endured in her Masters' Program at Cal State San Francisco, and within five minutes after completion had her passing grade. If the private system can handle a test that specialized, why can't it test arithmetic, algebra, US history, or college chemistry? Instead of bricks and mortar, it would be e-books in quarters. Why not?

I repeat: State licensing requires degreed credentials obtainable only at said profligate, bureaucratic and unaccountable institutions charging outrageous fees and demanding excessive time as only a State monopoly could command. Why not just amend the legislation specifying education for state licensure by adding the simple words, "or equivalent"?
The reason they don't do it is that even "reformers" like Perry are still STATISTS at heart, power freaks all, regardless of objectives, and therefore not to be trusted.
That was the thing that really got me interested in Governor Perry.
So even though Governor Perry is making some headway, but it's not good enough for you, we should just cast him aside and wait for some perfect savior who has yet to arrive?
I really like what Rick Perry was trying to do here. To make the spoiled rotten university .edu establishment more accountable and more efficient with money. These effin profs thinks they are gods and don't have to be held accountable for their course load and what they do to earn their salary paid for by the Texas taxpayer
From the article: The average in-state cost of a four-year degree in Texas, including books, is roughly $30,000
Strikes me as pretty steep for in-state. Perry's goal is to get it down to $10K. The author's $30K has to include not only tuition and books, but also #20K in housing, food and fees to reach that cool $30K.
Here are some comparables of top state schools in 3 states from USN&WR for 2010-11 tuition only:
UC Berkeley (#1 Public; #22 National) $10,868 in-state; $33,747 out-of-state.
UVA (#2 Public; #25 National) $10,628 in-state; $33,574 out-of-state.
UT-Austin (#13 Public; #45 National) $9,418 in-state; $31,218 out-of-state
That's how it looks.
There is no way UVA is $10K for 4 years.
noooooooooooooooooooooooo hahahaha, don't we WISH !!!
I thought I set out tuition and tuition only for the 2010-11 school year only; same for all the others.
So if your kid is going to, say, UVA, the tuition is $10K+ for that year, then some increase over the four years, probably ending up around $12.5K in his/her senior year for just the tuition. Throw in the rest and it's a cool $30K/year.
So now we understand why the private comparables are now running $50K. Ugh. This just can't be sustained.
When I went to school, it was $750 a semester....
Usually in speaking of college costs, it's done on an annual basis, given the increases from year to year for ALL costs. This writer did say a four year TX degree costs on average $30K, but that would be only for tuition and books. (Bought any college textbooks lately? Worse than tuition, etc!)
So if I'm looking to send a kid to UT-Austin, I start at @$10K just tuition/books, then throw in the housing/food/fees/extracurricular, blah blah blah. 'Tain't cheap even at public U's any more.
Right fight, wrong solution, headed in the wrong direction. Imagine this tool in the hand of a leftist, STATE control of thought. If you think that is headway, you are on the wrong forum.
Let's face it, The Lady ain't running, and Bobo is OUT in 2012, ya'll.
Perry, Romney, Christie, Rubio -- these 4 can win. 2 ain't running, and the other one is someone goofing on being a politician. That leaves Texas, and having spent a lot of time there over the past 20 years, I have always found a lot to like about Texas...
I'm hoping the HOPE scholarship (GA) is still solvent when my daughter graduates HS in 2013.
That's my hope for your daughter, too! Don't, under any circumstances, let her take out huge college loans. If it comes to it, let her go to a community college, then get auto transfer to a state 4 year college to finish off.
There's more than just financial advantage to community colleges. Like maturing, getting a better sense of what they're in school for, what major they want to pursue, instead of changing the major six times, extending the four years to five or more.
It makes me physically sick when I hear young folks with $50-100K in debt for college loans for a degree that doesn't lead to a job that can reasonably pay off the loans. There is NO getting out of paying off those loans. MAYBE death, but bankruptcy won't excuse college loans. They absolutely, positively have to be paid back.
Best to you and your daughter.
This has the virtue of appealing to all political factions. For example, in many cases, a professor will make a few changes in a textbook, thus creating a "new edition." Not only is the price of the new book inflated, but the professor can require that the students use the "new, improved" version.
That might make sense if the book reveals the latest discoveries in nanotechnology, but if the subject is philosophers from hundreds or thousands of years ago, it is not only a burden for the students, but also a potential conflict of interest for the professor-author.
Acta Philosophorum, $1740 on Amazon. At the college bookstore, I hate to think how much.
One of my instructors in college required an expensive hard bound edition of Moby Dick, but I bought a used paperback. The only problem was when they referred to a page number that was different from my version, but I did OK.
Electronic books may go a long way to lower costs, but only if "the system" allows it to happen.
But one of the dangers in "reforming the system" is that you will create a new bureaucracy. Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease. Like the government "help" we got to "cure" the 2008 crash.
[Rick] Scott Promotes Controversial Education Reforms [Rick Perry has championed] Gov. Rick Scott has begun discreetly promoting the same changes to the higher education system that Texas Gov. Rick Perry has championed. The proposals include some of the same reforms pushed by conservatives in K-12 schools: merit pay for professors, tenure reform, and generally a much greater emphasis on measurement of whether professors are turning out students that meet certain goals.
The attempt in Texas has caused something of an identity crisis in that states higher education community, with opponents saying what needs to be reformed is Perry's control over university policies.<<<
The Left is getting interested about whether Gov. Perry might shake up public education if elected president and save their bacon from the mess they've created.
Will Rick Perry Unravel the Strange Consensus on Public Education?
Think of what would be necessary to hand control of American education to the UN. The key would the establishment of control points and then handing said control up the chain. That is EXACTLY what Perry is doing here. This move of Perry's hardly qualifies as "smaller government," as administration of these tests is taken from the hands of local authorities, however much you may dislike them individually. Instead of establishing competing customer driven standards, he is setting up a system that pleases only the autocrat.
Perry is pulling exactly the same ruse that Bush did: qualifying as a conservative by TALKING God and country, while at the same time inculcating the power of the State, which is easily handed over to those you would not find at all so pleasing. This was the same mistake as falling for the PATRIOT Act, which in the hands of a Janet Napoletano blathering about conservatives as a domestic threat of terrorism is rather concerning.
"There's obviously opposition (to switching to totally computerized material), but there's always opposition to change," Perry said. He said the switch would have to be done cost effectively and that he didn't yet know whether such a move would save money. The governor said he wants to explore the proposal when the Legislature meets in 2011.>>>.......
2. Recognize and reward teachers This is merit pay for professors. The plan calls for the top 25 percent of professors to earn a bonus. Top bonuses would be $10,000 per class.
3. Separate budgets for teaching and research This would allow colleges to better evaluate what kind of bang for its buck professors are providing. Splitting the pots of money would make it clearer how and why professors are paid.
4. Require evidence of skill for tenure This would set easily-defined goals to earn tenure. For instance, a professor would have to earn a rating of 4.5 on a 5-point scale to be eligible for tenure. Likewise, a professor might have to teach at least three classes a semester, with at least 30 students in each class, for a set number of years before becoming eligible for tenure.
5. Results-based contracts with students This amounts to a mortgage good faith estimate for students. Students would have to sign a document outlining the schools class sizes, teacher evaluations, SAT scores of incoming students and other data that would allow them to make a better informed decision.
6. Funding in the hands of students This proposal would take out the middle man in public funding. Some public money is given to schools as a tuition subsidy for student. The Texas Public Policy Foundation argues students will make the best decision if they get the money directly. Critics contend this creates a voucher system for colleges.
7. Create results-based accrediting alternatives This proposal would gradually move schools away from traditional accrediting and create a national body similar to the Securities and Exchange Commission to evaluate college claims and actual results. Colleges that can not fulfill their recruiting pitch could be investigated for fraud. Establishing new accreditation would make it possible for more schools to enter the market. [snip]
Rick Perry Leads the Way on Higher-Ed Reform [snip] First, runaway college costs are an important kitchen table issue for American families. After the economic woes of the past decade, many families are wondering how they are going to afford to send their kids to college (the yearly cost of attending an in-state four-year public college now tops $16,000 per year).
Second, like our public schools, Americas colleges are woefully underperforming. The authors of the recently published book Academically Adrift: Limited Learning on College Campuses found that 45 percent of college students show no improvement in critical skills after two years in college. Troubling statistics are forcing many families to question whether investing time and money in college is really worth it, particularly since many college graduates are struggling to find employment and appear to have gained few marketable skills.
Third, colleges are creating a heavy burden for taxpayers. According to the National Association of State Budget Officers, higher-ed spending accounts for approximately 10 percent of state spending. And federal subsidies for higher education (including grants, loans, tax credits, and direct payments to schools) amount to well over $100 billion annually.
Fourth, colleges have long been an intellectual driver of progressivism in American life. I am sure I am not the only person who found my undergraduate and graduate school years to have been a tiring indoctrination in leftist ideas. It is surely no coincidence that young American voters are more included to vote for the Left after this indoctrination.
For too long, the Right has neglected the need to challenge and reform American higher education. But in the current political climate, reforming colleges and universities (as well as our student-aid policies) is an eminently winnable fight and one that would yield big gains for students and taxpayers.
Conservative leaders around the country should follow Rick Perrys lead. [end]
LA Times story that underscores reasons for Perrys 7 Solutions push:
Take back the liberal arts - Too often, liberal arts courses aren't attuned to undergraduates looking for a broader understanding of the world but toward professor's narrow interests. -
Amherst once had a college-wide course called "Evolution of the Earth and Man," team taught by faculty from geology through genetics. It was exactly the sort of thing that drew people into the sciences. However, that offering no longer exists. Such classes don't earn points for the professors who plan them. Instead, they are expected to be doing research that will lead to tenure or higher ranks, which often means they are concentrating on ever more obscure topics.
An American Mathematical Society study of introductory courses found that only 11% were taught by regular faculty. Professors making their mark in "orbit structure of diffeomorphims of manifolds" feel their talents would be wasted teaching Math 101. But they might mull Albert Einstein's words to young researchers: "You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother."
There are still colleges where the contents of the bottles match the labels. But they tend to be more modest schools, ones that don't expect their faculties to make national reputations in research. Occidental College in Los Angeles is such a school, as is Hendrix College in Arkansas and the new Quest University Canada in British Columbia. And there are excellent dedicated liberal arts colleges within affordable public systems. New College of Florida and St. Mary's College of Maryland are two; also Arizona State University's Barrett honors college and Macaulay Honors College at the City University of New York, which waives tuition for students who maintain a 3.5 grade-point average.
As high school students and their parents consider college options, they might want to take a careful look at catalogs and course descriptions. In higher education these days, it's buyer beware. [end]
Insult aside, I like it here and intend to hang around.
I'll trade you LomanBill for Carry_Okie.
I'm glad also. There of course will be those who will find some reason to hate him for it.
OK, but I want an option on two players to be named later! :)
Why do we even need bricks and mortar schools in the 21st Century? Why do we need to "reward teachers" when the best could earn money like rock stars? Don't you get it? All that "classroom teaching" stuff is over.
Hence, Perry's "solutions" might have been productive back in the 70s, but as of now they are more hazardous than beneficial.
You are only off by a mere 50%. I have been paying for college for four straight years at two different schools and it is between $15-$18,000.
I like Gov. Perry's ideas and his grasp of so many government choke points.
Lawsuits and Regulations
Balanced budgets
Lower Taxes
I'll take a pass on your Perry bashing.
hey, *I* didn't write the article !!!
Originally, I thought he was referring to an annual cost that seemed mighty steep for a state school. Then decided to look further and run comparables to other state university systems' flagships. Not a HUGE difference among them.
Still, if Perry can push down the costs AND improve outcomes, and there are lots of ways in this day and age to do that, more power to him! Certainly he's begun 'the conversation' that needs to be held.
I still can't get over the cost of textbooks. OMG. One son is taking a physics class at a local community college, and I made reference to the textbook costing $100. He could barely stop laughing at me.
You're far too sensitive, you don't mind trashing a man you don't even know, but when you're criticized for it, you think you're being insulted and get you get your nose all out of joint. Talk about telling!
I won't bother you anymore.
Enjoy life.
Carry on, Carry_Okie.
Unfortunately, I am not enamored of his solutions.
Ill take a pass on your Perry bashing.
"Bashing" now is it? Look, I've explained to you what is wrong about this proposal. I have shown you a superior alternative. In fact, I've been proposing serious alternatives on this forum for over a decade. You have yet to address the content. Instead, simply because you don't take the time to really think about it, you are bashing. Grow up.
A State testing system requires administration. That takes bureaucracy over which the governor would have little direct control when it comes to testing content. Said bureaucracy would then implement the real agenda. If you want to sit there with your soft focus rose colored glasses on while ogling over the pitch and don't want to think about details or consequences, that's your business, but don't get all uppity when somebody points out the obvious.
I don't care who the candidate is. Had Rick Perry proposed something workable toward the expression of liberty, much less truly innovative, I'd have said so. I don't think he will. What my post above shows is how easy it is to fix this mess and yet NO politician wants do it simply because it is removal of State power over student learning while assuring the customer of said product that it WILL meet expectations, something NO political proposal of which I am aware even purports to do. What is truly sad is that you just won't get it.
And I don't like your tone.
So even though Governor Perry is making some headway, but it's not good enough for you, we should just cast him aside and wait for some perfect savior who has yet to arrive?
Instead of addressing the content, you have to attack me by painting me as unreasonable, shallow, and flippant. Nice job. Stupid, but typical. So, when you get a reply that is, frankly, more polite than yours, you attack it as an insult?
Deal with the content. The reality is that Perry's proposal here is that it proposes more centralized command and control of a system that needs said control devolved to customers. Centralized control is easily subordinated to the Federal Department of Education and thence the UN. What would you do then?
And you're arrogant to boot!
Never mind accountability.

S Racine Ave / W 76th St is a densely urban neighborhood (based on population density) located in Chicago, Illinois.
S Racine Ave / W 76th St real estate is primarily made up of small (studio to two bedroom) to medium sized (three or four bedroom) small apartment buildings and apartment complexes/high-rise apartments. Most of the residential real estate is renter occupied. Many of the residences in the S Racine Ave / W 76th St neighborhood are relatively historic, built no later than 1939, and in some cases, quite a bit earlier. A number of residences were also built between 1940 and 1969.
S Racine Ave / W 76th St has a 14.4% vacancy rate, which is well above average compared to other U.S. neighborhoods (higher than 72.5% of American neighborhoods). Most vacant housing here is vacant year round. This could either signal that there is weak demand for real estate in the neighborhood or that large amount of new housing has been built and not yet occupied. Either way, if you live here, you may find many of the homes or apartments are empty.
