Although it's a cliche, remember that at Christmas it really is ...
The thought that counts
You might think we'd all be used to Christmas rolling around each December 25 and be able to celebrate the season without derailing finances.
Yet every year many Kiwis find themselves in financial strife by February when the bills roll in.
It doesn't have to be that way.
To survive Christmas and the summer holidays without denting your credit card, think ahead, make a plan and stick to it.
The earlier you start the more time you'll have to enjoy the festivities and fun times with family and friends instead of fretting about the bills.
Putting some smart strategies in place now will ensure you celebrate a fabulous Christmas and avoid waking in 2013 with a debt hangover.
Gifts for all
Gifts are one of the most fun elements of Christmas but also one of the most stressful. There are decisions about how much to spend, who to buy for, and what to buy.
To ease your stress, plan ahead.
List who you need to buy gifts for and assign a budget to each. Carry the list with you and buy gifts as you see them over the weeks leading up to Christmas rather than in a single major shopping expedition.
You're more likely to make good decisions and stick to your plan.
The more thought you put into a present the less people think about what it might have cost.
The excellent event planner at Sorted.org.nz can help you work out how much you need to save for Christmas.
Entertaining children
The holidays can be expensive, even if you're not going away as you feel compelled to spend money on trips and entertainment.
Decide ahead of time how much money you have to spend on movies, trips and activities, holiday programmes and toys and decide how you're going to allocate your funds.
If your children are a little older, involve them in the process so you are planning activities you know they'll enjoy and they gain an understanding of keeping to a money plan.
Remember, most parents are in the same boat, so consider sharing activities and childcare with friends and family members.
That way the holidays will be kinder on your wallet, and the children will have activities to look forward to and friends to play with.
Avoid food fights
At holiday time you're likely to be hosting and feeding friends and family. To cope with the extra food expenses start stocking up on non- perishable food items early and shop around to find the best deals. Organising and paying for the family Christmas meal can be a cause of tension among family members, but starting the conversation early can ease the stress levels.
Rather than lumping the cost and all the responsibility on the host, spread the load by asking everyone to bring a favourite dish. People love to show off their speciality meals, so give them the opportunity at Christmas.
Stay on track
The key to enjoying Christmas is to take control. Be open with your family - no one wants their loved ones to be stressed about money, especially at Christmas.
Meals and celebrations needn't be complicated. Make the most of the barbecue season rather than cooking expensive meals. Get everyone out of the house and save costs with outdoor activities such as picnics and beach days.
Most of all this year, make your Christmas memories all about fun rather than financial worry.
David Kneebone is the spokesman for Sorted, a Kiwi guide-to-money website.

Who's going to be first this week??? I know it's not going to be me..Surrise me!
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Who's going to be first this week??? I know it's not going to be me..Surrise me!
Rain or shine, many I know start the morning with a cup of coffee (or hot tea, cocoa) and the there is a rambling road that gathers no moss (unless they ramble through Hartford where the Moss sisters and brother live across the road from us) Roll on wagon wheels, roll on.
QNS I love those blocks!! You're choice of fabrics always makes me smile. And the fussy cutting--wow!! Great job.
Here are mine:
Imagine all the people living life in peace...(John Lennon 1940-1980)
Beautiful blocks QNSue and as always a lovely story to go with them
JanRN I love your blocks and your quilting, awesome job
QNSue..your blocks looked so different I had to look to make sure I was at the same week. Your fabric tells a story every time.
JanR...How do you decide which quilting design to use on each block? I'm a little intimidated by that but don't want stippling all of the time. I'm using the Baptist Fan right now on my DGD quilt and like it a lot but I know I will get tired of that too.
Ggal, I love your blocks but especially the dark florals in Rambling Roads. Great job on both.
Hmm, quilting designs. I just look at the block and then wing it. I always hand quilted and each block had it's own quilting. I can't get used to all-over quilting on a quilt (just me, it's actually quite lovely when done well--no offense meant to anyone who does all-over quilting). I have a lot of templates that I use or use parts of them. I have a box with old CDs, heart shaped boxes, leaves, plastic plates in various sizes, etc., and I use those to trace around. I read somewhere that if the block has lots of squares or angles, the quilting should be round or swirly. I don't follow that--I just do what I like and what the block "says". Not much of an answer, right LOL????
Imagine all the people living life in peace...(John Lennon 1940-1980)
QNS--You always use such fun fabrics and great fussy cutting!
Jan--I really like the pink (purple?) background fabric in RR and your quilting in RorS gives the block a curved look...like it!
Ggal--You have some "Carrie color" fabrics. I have always like paisleys too! Great job!
QNS - love the story behind your blocks. So much fun to see what you come up with each week. Jan - Great contrast in your blocks. Love the quilting you are doing too. GGal - I'm with Carrie on your paisley - I love paisley too, great fabric choice. My blocks are cut out, but I won't get them sewn this week. We are going on a trip, so hopefully will get them sewn when I get home next week.
"You have enough quilts made when your soul is filled, your creativity satisfied and your fingers just won't work anymore."
QNS - Your fabric choices are so youthful. They make me think they were made by someone in their late 20's or early 30's. Your youthful heart is showin' through.
Jan - That pink took me by surprise, yet I think it will really look great in your quilt. Your Rain or Shine block is classy. Your quiltin' is makin' me rethink my plan ta SID. I wanted the piecin' ta be the focus. Your quiltin' is just wonderful.
GG - I think that Carrie rubbed off on ya last week! Your blocks are just about perfect.
My initials are BB, so dublb is double B.
As always, Ladies, you never fail to please!
Such a variety in colours, fabrics and placement choices, that ITA one starts to wonder if they are really the same blocks ... or subs!
JanRN ... I'm wanting to do more of my own machine quilting, so one of these times you'll have to show us your magical box of supplies you use!
Sew many ideas ... just sew little time!!

In reviewing the comments of this list, I have not heard of many that use a queen right cell builder.
Is there anyone that uses this approach.
Frank Wyatt
In reviewing the comments of this list, I have not heard of many that use a queen right cell builder.
Is there anyone that uses this approach.
Frank Wyatt
Dan does.
A cloake board works very nicely.
I don't. I might start taking the cells out when capped and putting them into an incubator though.
"I reject your reality, and substitute my own." Adam Savage
I use the Cloake board as Chef mentioned.
I put the Cloake board on about 4 days to a week before graft to get the bees accustomed to that entrance. I move as much young larvae above the excluder 2-3 days before graft as I can....1 day before graft I slide in board to make the top box(es) queenless. I take out the young larvae leaving young nurse bees in starter/finisher. i put cells into polish and make sure there is enough pollen/nectar. The next day I graft and 24 hrs later I remove the slide after cells where started making the cell builder queenright. They stay in the queenright colony above the excluder most of the time until I pull the cells and place in nucs. If I need to do another graft I have always waited to move them when the cells are capped.
This has worked well for me. I basically follow the method Sue Coby outlined in a 2 part article that she wrote for ABJ.
Dan Williamson
B&C Honey Farm http://www.flickr.com/photos/9848229@N05/
The method I am asking about uses a two story hive body set up and a queen excluder. No slide is used as in the cloake system.
I have been using this set up since '99 and have yet to see anyone else that has tried it.
Just curious?
Seems natural with less disturbance to the hive and I can even continue to collect honey from this starter during a honey flow.
Good day.
Frank Wyatt
I take the queen right hive, put all the brood in an upper story without the queen. I then put the queen on the bottom box with empty frames and some sealed brood, next queen excluder, next an empty box with frames, next the box with all the young and sealed brood.
Now what happens is all the field bees go to the bottom and take care of the queen. She can not come up to the top to the brood. The empty box keeps her separated from the nurse bees who now think they are queenless. I then give them queen cells to work on. There is no loss in production since there is no disruption in colony growth or strength. If you want to play you can then set another queen excluder above the empty box and allow one queen to emerge to help in doubling the hive population for the fall and winter. You can replace the old queen then.
I would be interested to have you expand a little on your set up Frank. There are many ways but obviously one's with minor disturbance would be interesting to hear about.
Frank, I think we use the same system you do but we use a double excluder for added insurance. We start our grafts in a queenless broodless nuc then after about 24 hours transfer them to the queenright colony to finish until ready to put the cells in mating nucs. Works great.
Sorry for the delay- been out of town and """busy"""
My Starter/Finsihers are two story.
Set up of top brood box for two frames of cells started are as follows:
H- stands for open celled honey/ Feeder
B- Open Brood frame--Very young Brood
P- Pollen frame
C- Cell frame
Bottom brood box consist of the existing queen
and all other left over frames from the
double brood box starter
There are several methods that can be used to start queen cells and
it is better to know at least two of them in case conditions will not allow one
or the other to work
howdy frank...
not certain what... QUEEN EXCLUDER... meant in you last post?
now I have pretty much always used swarm boxes but the fellow (it was his daughter that I was talking with in front of your booth at the ABF meeting in Austin) from whom I buy cells in the spring uses queenright (double deep) boxes for starting cells.
he use a set of simple manipulation in regards to the two boxs (I think he learned this method from one of the Gunters) which I think is mostly designed to shift the age distribution of the workers within the two boxs to maximize cell production. he set up the top box much like you have suggested in your last post. he does a quite limited manipulation in altering the entrances and the two boxes position (top and bottom boxs are flipped) to maintain cell production motivation.
Sounds like they use a very simular system. It appears to generate less disturbance in the setup. (My opinion)
I was making an attempt to show how I set up the top box of the DBL brood Box
with a queen excluder installed under the top box and the miscell. frames and the queen in the bottom box
I just run my starters as normal DBL brood boxes.
I also use a swarm box in the early spring because the above set up will not get the number of cells started that is needed at that early date. With the fluctuations in night time temps. the nurse bees will cluster and pull away from the new cells that need starting and you will loose them.
Good hearing from you.
I have after I tried other methods.
Be sure that you use a new spring queen to prevent swarming.

Discussion in 'FRESH FINDS' started by highwheelerboy25, Nov 18, 2011.
Looks great! 8)
almost done! just need to track down some front reflectors, get a coaster brake arm clamp, and my chainguard decal.
since this pic i've adjusted the seat clamp so you can't see it under the seat.
with the seat clamp properly adjusted.
Bike looks great.
It looks really cool with the mag on the back. I like the green color too. Nice job on the resto.!!!!
installed the "unecessary rear brake" and got the chainguard decal in from raleighron!
Here is that "Coast to Coast" 26" bike I had mentioned with the similar chain guard. Thought you would like to see it. Gary
Here is that 26" Coast to Coast Hardware store bike I mentioned had a similar chain guard. Thought you would like it. Gary
I'm still learning about posting pictures. Gary
update. i got a rear fender for this bad boy from raleighron and i also got a set of white grips from him. i took the fenders to the chrome shop and had them triple-plated. i found a matching front wheel and had to strip it; i may end up painting the wheels, i'm thinking white with machined metal around the edges. after i put the fenders on i realized they were fighting the rear brake so i remove the brake altogether. that's it i guess until i can find another reason to work on it some more.
Like the mags in front and rear both. Looks clean without the brake and the grips matching the seat make it pop. The shape of the chain guard is really cool.
The frame is kinda abstract and the mags emphasize/enhance that look 8) 8) Nice Job!
That is one awesome bike! Great job on this built. Love the frame style. It's quite unique. I think the mags would look great in while.
I disagree...I'd leave the mags just as they are...your bike is very cool and ,in my opinion,the white mags would be over kill...sometimes less is more.Besides...how many '60's dragsters have you seen with white mags?At the end of the day,though,its your bike and you'll do with it what you think is best.Ride it around awhile like it is...talk to people...you can always paint 'em later if thats what you really want...I'm just say'in...Pappy 8)
painted the mags graphite!
got best of show in cleveland, tn!
CONGRATS!!!...Well done!...P 8)

<p>Does the gentlemen prefer blondes? We think he does. </p>
We here at Playboy.com pride ourselves on paying attention. We know what you like.
As a for instance: We know that girls out on the beach, getting all dirty in the sand, is a big turn-on for you. High heels, too. And of course, our celebrity shoots always do well.
See, we know. We listen.
But above all the beaches and the busty babes, we know that gentlemen prefer blondes. And boy, do we have blondes.
The fair-haired beauties have been with us since the beginning; in fact, if you will recall, our very first centerfold was perhaps the most famous of all the flaxen females: one Miss Marilyn Monroe.
And though she came a little too early to appear in this particular edition of Playboy Retro, we're pretty sure you won't mind; the girls featured in this week's gallery, all from the centerfolds of the '70s, are sure to satisfy your sandy-haired addiction.
See their full profiles here: 1) Avis Miller. 2) Debbie Ellison. 3) Debra Jensen. 4) Dorothy Mays. 5) Elaine Morton. 6) Hope Olson. 7) Jean Manson. 8) Jill De Vries. 9) Karen Christy. 10) Cathy Rowland. 11) Kristine Hanson. 12) Kristine Winder. 13) Liv Lindeland. 14) Lynn Schiller. 15) Monique St. Pierre. 16) Susan Lynn Kiger. 17) Vicki Peters.

Special Order
Joe Grey can't believe his human housemate Clyde would even consider volunteering him for the animal therapy program at the local nursing home, just when Joe was on the verge of solving the string of burglaries that has Molena Point residents shaking in their collective boots. But it turns out it's Dulcie, Joe's pretty little cat-friend, who came up with the idea of subjecting Joe to the cooing attentions of a bunch of doddering old coots. Dulcie believes there's more going on at the old folks' home than the care and feeding of lonely seniors. And she needs Joe's help in getting to the bottom of a conspiracy ... and a very suspicious set of deaths.
About the Author

The Bonner Center for Community Service and Learning provides resources, opportunities, connections and direction that encourage the integration of academics and experience, campus and community, self and service, passion and purpose. Each year, 60 Bonner Scholars at Guilford perform more than 24,000 hours of community service as part of their commitment to the scholarship program. One of the first Bonner Scholar's Programs in the country, Guilford prides itself on making sustained commitments to smaller groups of core partners, community groups and neighborhoods.
The Bonner Center offers:
Bonners enjoy a unique opportunity to form friendships with other students who share their commitment to service, both on the college campus and in the wider Bonner network. In this way, students are encouraged to extend their learning beyond the classroom. Student reflections emphasize this, showing the unique impact the Bonner Center has on students' course of study, career path and view on community service.
Students volunteer with an African immigrant or refugee at their home to tutor their children and assist the adults with their English proficiency and socialization skills.
Click here to learn more.
Students tutor and mentor children after school while working with issues of social justice through art and theatre projects.
Students organize events to educate other students on issues related to HIV and AIDS.
Students help children with homework and leadership development through fun physical activities such as soccer and basketball.
Students tutor, mentor and design extracurricular activities for refugee children from Vietnam, Liberia, the Sudan and other countries.
Students serve as tutors for adults in an ESOL program, as well as participate in social activities and discussion groups.
Students work to educate, inform and provide the community with basic nutritional needs.
Students serve as tutors and mentors as part of a program attempting to increase the number of Latinas and Latinos in college.
Students act as a "buddy" to mentor a child during their lunch hour.
Students tutor and design activities five nights a week for children at this local shelter for homeless families.
Project Community is a student-run (volunteer and Work-Study) community service organization that provides Guilford students with a chance to engage in meaningful service opportunities (on-campus and off-campus) through various civic engagement projects and volunteer opportunities.
To implement this goal, Project Community:
The Quaker Cupboard, located in the Bonner House, is Guilford College's campus food pantry which aims to address food insecurity issues* on campus and in the community.
Run under the umbrella of Guilford College's Food Justice Club, the QC receives donations from area grocery stores, direct community donations and produce grown in Guilford College garden plots. With the understanding that Guilford College's student and staff populations are diverse, it serves a variety of needs: a snack between classes, a couple of bags of groceries to make a budget stretch, as well as personal hygiene items.
The QC stocks both perishable and nonperishable groceries, hygiene products (soap, razor, feminine hygiene care) and safer-sex items (condoms/lubricant) for anyone who can use them, free of charge.
Students, faculty/staff and community members are welcome to make use of the Quaker Cupboard during during Bonner House hours (typically 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and during extended hours on Tuesdays to better serve students with evening classes. The QC also welcomes appointments which can be made by contacting firstname.lastname@example.com or via the QC's Facebook page: www.facebook.com/quakercupboard. Please contact these resources, also, if you would like to make a donation to this vital campus resource.
The Quaker Cupboard's mission is "for no one in the Guilford College family to go without."
*The National Campaign Against Student Hunger and Homelessness summarizes that food insecurity is "the lack of reliable access to sufficient quantities of affordable, nutritious food." It is common on college campuses and universities with the potential of undermining the success of untold thousands of students.
Students participate in evening activities and conversation with occupants of a temporary shelter for homeless men with health problems.
The Community Scholars Program provides opportunities for Guilford College students to earn Federal Work-Study (FWS) awards by working with one of our community partners in Greensboro.
The main purpose of the Community Scholars program is to encourage students receiving Federal Work-Study to participate in community service activities that will benefit the Greensboro community and engender in our students a sense of social responsibility and commitment to the community.
The Community Service Work-Study Program focuses on engaging students more fully in service learning through consistent outreach activities, stimulating service experiences, meaningful orientation and reflection, and connections between service and coursework. Students employed at the Bonner Center's Community Partner organizations learn more about their community, impact the lives of local residents, and earn part of their financial aid award.
The Community Scholars Work-Study Program is currently affiliated with the Bonner Center's Community partners in the City of Greensboro and the greater Guilford County community. Students working in these agencies tutor academically at-risk youth, complete clerical tasks, plan arts projects, participate in environmental restoration programs, contribute creative ideas, and more.
For more information email James Shields, or call 336.316.2447.

How do I find a Work-Study job?
It is the student's responsibility to secure a service opportunity that qualifies for Community Scholars. Students are encouraged to serve at one of the Bonner Center's committed sites or find an opportunity at the Volunteer Fair held the first week of school.
How are my Work-Study funds disbursed?
You can sign up for Direct Deposit of your monthly Work-Study pay. This service provides you with a safe and convenient way to have your wages automatically deposited into your checking or savings account. This is set up through human resources once you get your contract signed.
What are Community Service Federal Work-Study jobs?
Community Service Federal Work-Study jobs are paid positions. Students are encouraged to pursue employment that is community service related. Community service positions contribute to the improvement in the quality of life for area residents by helping solve particular problems related to their needs. Job categories that are considered community service include: * Health care, child care, literacy training, education (including tutorial service), welfare, social services, transportation, housing and neighborhood improvement, public safety, crime prevention and control, recreation, rural development, and community improvement. * Support services to enrolled students with disabilities (including students with disabilities who are enrolled at school). * Activities in which a student serves as a mentor for purposes such as tutoring, supporting educational and recreational activities, and counseling, including career counseling. Both on-campus and off-campus jobs can qualify as community service work. However, on-campus jobs must involve a program, project, or service that is provided to the general public in the local community, such as Project Community. On-campus jobs that serve only the campus community do not qualify as community service employment.
Can I have more than one Work-Study job at a time?
Yes. However, a student's number one priority is academic achievement. Therefore, you should not exceed two jobs at any given time.
How, where, and to whom do I submit my weekly hours?
Hours must be submitted by the 15th of each month on Banner web.
How many hours per week may I work?
This depends on your Work-Study award. In order to make sure your money last through the academic year, you should stick with the suggested hours per week on your Work-Study contract.
Can my Work-Study award carry over from one year to another?
No. Remaining Work-Study award amounts do not carry over from one academic year to another.
What are the tax implications of having a Work-Study job?
Work-Study wages are subject to the same federal, state, and local income taxes as any other earned income.
Where and when will I receive my W-2 Wage and Tax Statement from the College?
The W-2 Wage and Tax Statement lists your total earnings and taxes for the calendar year. Your W-2 is mailed to your permanent address as listed on Banner web.

A sweetie bag is a small brown paper bag filled with assorted candies. These candies vary but most sweetie bags contain sour punch straws, sour patch kids, and mike and ikes. The cost for a sweetie bag is usually around three dollars. Over budgeting is accepted for optimal candy consumption. If you are with friends, it is wise to make a sweetie bag with a medium brown paper bag and more candy. To make the sweetie bag, you take all the candy and put it in the bag, and then you twist the bag close and shake it. You should shake it and let it marinate so that it is a surprise every time you take one.

Below is a description of changes that have been made to the IDEA Part B final regulations (including certain items that have been retained, modified, or added since publication of the NPRM) that may be of special interest to teachers**.
Individualized Education Programs
(IEPs -- §§300.340-300.350)
- Regular Education Teacher on IEP Team Is Required By IDEA '97.
The final Part B regulations incorporate the requirements of IDEA '97 regarding regular education teachers in the IEP process, (i.e.:
- the IEP team must include at least one regular education teacher of the child (if the child is, or may be, participating in the regular education environment)
(see §300.344(a)(2)); and
- the teacher must, to the extent appropriate, participate in the development, review, and revision of the child's IEP, including assisting in the determination of appropriate positive behavioral interventions and strategies for the child, and of the supplementary aids and services, program modifications, and supports for school personnel that will be provided for the child consistent with the IEP content requirements in §300.347(a)(3).
(See §300.346(e).)
- the IEP team must include at least one regular education teacher of the child (if the child is, or may be, participating in the regular education environment)
- Extent To Which Reg. Ed. Teacher Must Be Physically Present At IEP Meeting.
While at least one regular education teacher of a child with a disability must be a member of the IEP team (if the child is, or may be, participating in the regular education environment), the LEA need not require the teacher to -- (1) participate in all decisions made as part of the meeting, or (2) be present at all meetings or throughout an entire meeting, as described below:
- THE TEACHER WOULD PARTICIPATE IN DISCUSSIONS ABOUT the child's involvement and progress in the general curriculum and participation in the regular education environment (as well as discussions about the supplementary aids and supports for teachers and other school staff that are necessary to ensure the child's progress in that environment).
- THE TEACHER NEED NOT PARTICIPATE IN DISCUSSIONS about certain other matters in the IEP meeting (e.g., the physical therapy needs of the child -- if the teacher is not responsible for implementing that portion of the child's IEP).
- WHETHER THE TEACHER MUST BE PHYSICALLY PRESENT AT EACH MEETING, and the extent to which the teacher must participate in all phases of the IEP process are matters that must -- (1) be determined on a case-by-case basis by the public agency, the parents, and the other members of the IEP team, and (2) be based on a variety of factors. (See analysis of comments on §300.344(a)(2) in Attachment 1, and Q-24 of Appendix A.)
- Teachers And Other Staff Must Have Access To, And Be Informed About, The IEP.
The final regulations provide that each regular and special education teacher and service provider responsible for implementing a child's IEP must -- (1) have access to the child's IEP; and (2) be informed of his or her specific responsibilities under the IEP, and of the specific accommodations, modifications, and supports that must be provided for the child in accordance with the IEP.
- Designating A Public Agency Representative On IEP Team.
A new §300.344(d) has been added to permit a public agency to designate another public agency member of the IEP team to also serve as the agency representative, if the criteria in §300.344(a)(4) are satisfied.
- Giving Parents A Copy Of IEP.
The final regulations provide that parents must be given a copy of the child's IEP without cost and without having to request it.
(See §300.345(f).)
- Considering Each Child's Performance on General Assessments.
The final regulations clarify that, in developing each child's IEP, the IEP team (in addition to considering the strengths of the child and the results of evaluations) also must consider "As appropriate, the results of the child's performance on any general state or district-wide assessments."
(See §300.346(a)(1).)
Consideration of Special Factors (Added Without Change From IDEA '97).
IDEA '97 required the IEP team to consider special factors related to each child. These statutory considerations, which were not changed in either the NPRM or the final regulations, include the following:
- BEHAVIOR THAT IMPEDES LEARNING. In the case of a child whose behavior impedes his or her behavior consider, if appropriate, strategies, including positive behavioral interventions, strategies, and supports to address that behavior.
(See §300.346(a)(2)(i).)
- LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY. In the case of a child with limited English proficiency, consider the language needs of the child as they relate to the child's IEP.
(See §300.346(a)(2)(ii).)
- BRAILLE NEEDS. In the case of a child who is blind or visually impaired, provide for instruction in braille ...unless the IEP team determines that it is not appropriate for the child.
(See §300.346(a)(2)(iii).)
- COMMUNICATION NEEDS. "Consider the communication needs of the child, and in the case of a child who is deaf or hard of hearing, consider the child's language and communication needs..."
(See §300.346(a)(2)(iv).)
- ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY. Consider whether the child requires assistive technology devices and services.
(See §300.346(a)(2)(v).)
- BEHAVIOR THAT IMPEDES LEARNING. In the case of a child whose behavior impedes his or her behavior consider, if appropriate, strategies, including positive behavioral interventions, strategies, and supports to address that behavior.
- IEP Accountability; Parent Right To Invoke Due Process.
The final regulations make clear that -- (1) each public agency, in addition to providing services, must make a good faith effort to assist the child to achieve the goals and objectives or benchmarks listed in the IEP; and (2) "Nothing in this section limits a parent's right to ask for revisions of the child's IEP or to invoke due process procedures if the parent feels that efforts required in paragraph (a) of this section are not being made."
(See §300.350.)
Discipline Procedures
Prior to enactment of the IDEA Amendments of 1997, the statute only specifically addressed the issue of discipline in a provision that allowed school personnel to remove a child to an interim alternative educational placement for up to 45 days if the child brought a gun to school or to a school function. The 1997 Amendments incorporated prior court decisions and Department policy that had held that:
- schools could remove a child for up to 10 school days at a time for any violation of school rules as long as there was not a pattern of removals;
- a child with a disability could not be long-term suspended or expelled from school for behavior that was a manifestation of his or her disability; and
- services must continue for children with disabilities who are suspended or expelled from school.
In addition, the 1997 Amendments:
- expanded the authority of school personnel regarding the removal of a child who brings a gun to school, to also apply to all dangerous weapons and to the knowing possession of illegal drugs or the sale or solicitation of the sale of controlled substances; and
- added a new ability of schools to request a hearing officer to remove a child for up to 45 days if keeping the child in his or her current placement is substantially likely to result in injury to the child or to others. The Amendments also added new provisions that require schools to assess a child's troubling behavior and develop positive behavioral interventions to address that behavior, and that describe how to determine whether the behavior was a manifestation of the child's disability.
The final regulations incorporate the statutory provisions described above, and provide additional specificity on a number of key issues:
Removals of Up to 10 School Days at a Time
- The regulations clarify that school personnel may remove a child with a disability for up to 10 school days, and for additional removals of up to 10 school days for separate acts of misconduct, as long as the removals do not constitute a pattern.
Providing Services During Periods of Disciplinary Removal
- Schools do not need to provide services during the first 10 school days in a school year that a child is removed.
- During any subsequent removal that is for 10 school days or less, schools provide services to the extent determined necessary to enable the child to appropriately progress in the general curriculum and appropriately advance toward achieving the goals of his or her IEP. In cases involving removals for 10 school days or less, school personnel, in consultation with the child's special education teacher, make the service determination.
- During any long-term removal for behavior that is not a manifestation of a child's disability, schools provide services to the extent determined necessary to enable the child to appropriately progress in the general curriculum and appropriately advance toward achieving the goals of his or her IEP. In cases involving removals for behavior that is not a manifestation of the child's disability, the child's IEP team makes the service determination.
Conducting Behavioral Assessments and Developing Behavioral Interventions
- Meetings of a child's IEP team to develop a behavioral assessment plan, or (if the child has one) to review the child's behavioral intervention plan, are only required when the child has first been removed from his or her current placement for more than 10 school days in a school year, and when commencing a removal that constitutes a change in placement.
- If other subsequent removals occur, the IEP team members review the child's behavioral intervention plan and its implementation to determine if modifications are necessary, and only meet if one or more team members believe that modifications are necessary.
Change of Placement; Manifestation Determinations
- The regulations provide that a change of placement occurs if a child is removed for more than 10 consecutive school days or is subjected to a series of removals that constitute a pattern because they cumulate to more than 10 school days in a school year, and because of factors such as the length of each removal, the total amount of time the child is removed, and the proximity of the removals to one another.
- Manifestation determinations are only required if a school is implementing a removal that constitutes a change of placement.
Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) and Eligibility
- Comprehensive Evaluation.
The evaluation procedures in §300.532 have been amended to provide that each child's evaluation must be sufficiently comprehensive to identify all of the child's special education and related services needs, including any needs the child has that are commonly linked to a disability other than the disability in which the child has been classified.
(See §300.532(h).)
- Ineligibility -- Lack of Instruction or Limited English Proficiency.
The final regulations clarify that a child may not be determined eligible under IDEA-Part B if "(1) The determinant factor for that eligibility determination is -- (i) Lack of instruction in reading or math; or (ii) limited English proficiency; and (2) the child does not otherwise meet the eligibility criteria under §300.7(a)."
- Services Based on Identified Need.
The FAPE requirements in §300.300 have been amended to make clear that services provided to an eligible child must -- (A) address all of the child's special education and related services needs, and (B) be based on the identified needs of the child, and not the child's disability category.
(See §300.300(a)(3).)
- Use of Assistive Technology in a Child's home if Needed for FAPE.
On a case-by-case basis, the use of school-purchased assistive technology devices in a child's home or in other settings is required if the child's IEP team determines that the child needs access to those devices in order to receive FAPE.
(See §300.308.)
- Extended School Year (ESY) Services.
Section §300.309 (ESY services) has been amended to clarify that a public agency may not limit ESY services to particular categories of disability, or unilaterally limit the type, amount, or duration of those services.
(See §300.309(a)(3).)
- Graduation Policy Retained; Prior Notice and Evaluation Addressed.
The final regulations retain the policy position that a student's right to FAPE is terminated upon graduation with a regular high school diploma, but is not terminated by any other kind of graduation certificate or diploma. The regulations also specify that --
- WRITTEN PRIOR NOTICE IS REQUIRED in accordance with §300.503, because graduation from high school with a regular diploma constitutes a change in placement (see §300.122(a)(3)). School districts will be expected to provide the notice "a reasonable time" before proposing to graduate a student, in order to ensure that there is sufficient time for the parents and student to plan for, or challenge, the pending graduation.
(See Analysis of Comments related to §300.122.)
- EVALUATION IS NOT REQUIRED BEFORE GRADUATION (i.e., the provision requiring that a student be evaluated before determining that he or she is no longer eligible under Part B does not apply if the termination of eligibility is due to graduation with a regular diploma or aging-out under state law).
(See §300.534(c).)
Children Experiencing Developmental Delays (§300.313).
- Provisions Related to "Developmental Delay."
A new §300.313 has been added to -- (1) specify the conditions that states and LEAs must follow in using the term; and (2) clarify that a state or LEA that elects to use "developmental delay" also may use one or more of the disability categories for any child who has been determined (through the IDEA evaluation procedures) to have a disability and need special education. Thus, if a child has an identified disability (e.g., deafness), it would be appropriate to use the term with that child even if the state or LEA is using "developmental delay" for other children aged 3 through 9. The regulations also make clear that a state may adopt a common definition of "developmental delay" under Parts B and C of the Act.
- Adding "ADD/ADHD" to "Child with a Disability."
"Attention deficit disorder" and "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder" have been added as conditions that could render a child eligible under the "other health impairment" category.
(See §300.7(c)(9).)
- "Travel Training."
"Travel training" has been added to the definition of "special education," and defined to mean: "Providing instruction, as appropriate, to children with significant cognitive disabilities and any other children who require this instruction, to enable them to (i) develop an awareness of the environment in which they live; and (ii) learn the skills necessary to move effectively and safely from place to place within that environment (e.g., in school, in the home, at work, and in the community)."
(See §300.26(b)(4).)
General Changes
- All notes in the NPRM have been removed from the final regulations, and have been disposed of, as follows: The substance of the notes has been (1) added to the text of the regulations if it was considered to be a requirement; (2) added to Appendix A (formerly appendix C) if it was directly relevant to the Notice of Interpretation on IEPs; or (3) incorporated into the discussion of applicable comments in the Analysis of Comments and Changes. All other notes have been deleted.
(See Attachment 3, described below, regarding the disposition of each note in the NPRM.)
- Two "Appendices" have been included in the final regulations: Appendix A--Notice of Interpretation on IEPs; and Appendix B--Index to IDEA-Part B regulations.
- Three "Attachments" have been added, as follows: Attachment 1-- Analysis of Comments and Changes; Attachment 2 -- Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis; and Attachment 3 -- Table showing "Disposition of NPRM Notes in Final Regulations..."
* On October 22, 1997, a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) was published in the Federal Register to amend the regulations under Part B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The purposes of the NPRM were to implement changes made by the IDEA Amendments of 1997, and make other changes that facilitate the implementation of Part B. The changes made since the NPRM are based mainly on public comments received.
** The description of changes made to specific sections of the regulations since the NPRM does not include all changes made to those sections, nor does it include all changes in which teachers may have an interest. (For a more complete description, see "Major Changes..." in the preamble to the final regulations.)

The world of nano-technology now uses the concept that constant velocity will get you to the destination faster than constantly stopped traffic. One technique puts this concept into practice through the use of a fast nano-focus device based on a piezo-ceramic actuator embedded in a flexure guided lens positioning mechanism from PI. This technique allows a comprehensive examination of micro well plates within seconds. This application note provides an overview of this new approach and the equipment used in this very repeatable process.
An incorrect or poorly lit subject affects the image, regardless of the quality of a camera system. Therefore the illumination source is just as important as the camera's resolution and sensitivity. For high-speed imaging applications, a wide range of light sources can be utilized. See how a laser can be used for illumination in these four high speed imaging application examples.

CompTIA Security+ to be Refreshed
CompTIA has begun the process to refresh the content of the CompTIA Security+ exam. The goal of the content refresh is to make the technology covered in the exam more current to more accurately reflect security issues faced by the IT industry today.
CompTIA Security+ validates knowledge of communication security, infrastructure security, cryptography, operational security and general security concepts. The refresh will include changes to the test questions only; the exam objectives will not change. CompTIA Security+ is still a relevant and even vital certification for those looking to work in any aspect of IT security.
According to Security+ Product Manager, Carol Balkcom, the refreshed exam should be live by the end of 2006. This is very similar to what ISC2 does for the CISSP exam. There will be no new exam released, but as the security landscape changes, new questions will eventually make their way into the exam.
Being a Security+ SME (Subject Matter Expert), I helped write a number of the new questions. This prevents me from providing any information on specific questions, but rest assured that many of the new malware scurges hitting us on a daily basis will now be covered on this entry level IT security exam. As with any certification, Security+ will not make you an expert, but I highly recommend this credential to those just getting into security. It's a great overview and introduction to the field.

st: Survival analysis: finding best cut-off values
Tue, 6 Mar 2007 21:24:58 +0000 (GMT)
Dear Statalisters,
I am performing a survival analysis on a dataset with many variables. Multivariate cox proportional-hazard models
defined the best predictors (around 7 out of 270 variables). I would like to give the readers some cut-off values
they can use in the clinical practice, so I divided the most significant predictors in tertiles, create the dummy variables
and run Cox models for each variable (groups of dummy vars). Doing so, I obtain significant/unsignificant tertiles and Kaplan-Meyer graphs
stratified by tertiles. Thsi way works pretty well. But what if I would like to find only one cut-off per variable ?
I thought to use ROC curves to define the best diagnostic cut-offs and see if they are good also for prognosis, but unfortunately not all the best
predictors are so good also to discriminate groups of patients.
In conclusion my question is: there is a way to obtain the best prognostic cut-off value using Cox models ?
Thank you in advance for any help/insight

Heifers added after the night milking experienced fewer aggressive interactions.
by Amanda Smith, Hoard's Dairyman Associate Editor
We've all heard the benefits of separating our first-calf heifers from their older herdmates. It provides our new cows with a chance to adapt to their surroundings, learn a new routine and, literally, go from zero to 60 overnight. Despite the benefits, not all of our facilities are set up to allow this grouping luxury. When we have to comingle, is there a time of day that works better to add our heifers to their new groups?
Researchers with the Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute, along with colleagues from the Queen's University Belfast in the United Kingdom, studied the differences in welfare and first-lactation performance when first-calf heifers were added to a group after the morning or evening milking. Results were shared in the June Journal of Dairy Science.
Through the duration of the experiment, 28 heifers were split in two groups and added to a pen 30 minutes after the morning or evening milking. The groups heifers were added to were on the smaller side; 18 cows, 12 in the second lactation or greater along with 6 first-lactation cows. As heifers calved, they replaced a first-lactation cow in the established pens. A TMR was fed once daily, with concentrate fed in the parlor.
Researchers observed the first-lactation cows' behavior immediately after introduction to the group and after feed delivery for the first month. Lying times were also evaluated for the first month.
Heifers added in the morning were often on the receiving end of aggressive interactions from older cows immediately after feed delivery compared to animals added at night. The a.m.-added heifers spent more time at the bunk eating, were displaced more often and spent less time exploring their new surroundings.
The time of day at which heifers were added had no significant impact on milk production, overall feed intake levels, body weight or body condition loss. For a.m.-added heifers, however, feed intakes after mixing were higher during the second week. These heifers also spent longer periods at the bunk and consumed more meals, suggesting an elevated willingness to compete for feed.
In both groups, heifers spent less than 4 hours lying in the 24 hours after being added to the pen. Observations of the entire group showed that heifers added in the morning spent less time lying than both animals added at night and their herdmates that were initially in the pen.
With fewer aggressive interactions and a lack of performance parameter differences, researchers suggest it is beneficial to add heifers to an established group after the evening milking.

Cell: (602) 525-2681
PHOENIX - Robert C. Hazlett, 44, of Gilbert, Ariz., was found guilty of Conspiracy to Commit Bank Fraud and Student Loan Fraud in a decision by U.S. District Court Judge Stephen M. McNamee. Both parties agreed to submit the case to Judge McNamee for a decision without a jury. The judge's decision was based on the testimony and evidence presented during a jury trial held in May 2005 in which the jury was deadlocked.
From April 1999 to June 2000 Hazlett was the President of Valley Acceptance Corporation, a debt collection agency which provided services to colleges participating in the U.S. Department of Education Perkins Loan Program. The company's collection efforts were directed at students who had defaulted in the repayment of their Perkins loans to their schools.
The Court found that Hazlett and four of his employees conspired to submit fraudulent applications for replacement "consolidated student loans" to SunTrust Bank of Richmond, Va. which generated in excess of $1 million in commissions for themselves. The scheme consisted of misrepresenting that the applicants were in a repayment status on their prior loans rather than listing their default status. The defendants also falsely indicated that the applicants had made six payments to their prior loans so that they would qualify for the new bank loans that were federally insured by the U.S. Department of Education.
A total of 537 fraudulent applications were submitted and approved by the bank for consolidated loans, totaling in excess of $3.6 million. The borrowers subsequently defaulted on 212 of the fraudulently obtained loans causing a loss to the bank in excess of $1.4 million which was ultimately paid through insurance from the Department of Education.
The four other defendants pleaded guilty and have been sentenced. One defendant received 14 months in prison and the others received probation.
Judge McNamee reached his guilty verdict on February 9, 2006. Sentencing is set for May 1, 2006. A conviction for conspiracy carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison, a $250,000 fine or both. In determining an actual sentence, Judge McNamee will consult the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, which provide appropriate sentencing ranges. The judge, however, is not bound by those guidelines in determining a sentence.
The investigation leading to the guilty verdict was conducted by the FBI and the Office of the Inspector General, U.S. Department of Education. The prosecution is being handled by Richard I. Mesh, Assistant U.S. Attorney, District of Arizona, Phoenix.

The Destination
It's no secret that Palm Springs is Tinseltown's favorite hideaway. Since the '20s, this oasis in the desert less than two hours from LA has served as a sort of panacea to the stress of the concrete jungle, offering the best in spa relaxation and rejuvenation. And where better to soak it up than at the Andreas Hotel & Spa, one of the country's top spa hotels.
The Digs
This meticulously appointed jewel of the community, and nominee for the coveted Gold Nugget Award for Architecture and Design, is exquisitely furnished in the Spanish Revival and Craftsman styles. The hotel's 1930s roots are reflected in hand-forged ironwork balconies, elegant arches, and warm design elements.
Disappear in your Executive King Room, complete with bathrobes, a pillow-top bed, central air, and a balcony or private sundeck. The Deluxe Queen Room is similarly appointed, with a queen-size pillow-top bed and elegant embellishments.
The Diversions
By day, bask by the pool—with a drink in hand from the brand new poolside bar—or keep cool on its shaded deck in the landscaped courtyard. Schedule your treatment at The Spa at Andreas, then settle in for your signature body scrubs in the couples' treatment room. In the evening, sip wine on the heated patio and lose yourself, beneath a million stars, in the glow of an outdoor fireplace.

Try and get my new packages hived with no problems. First time hiving packages. First full year coming up. Bought mine half way through this year. Look forward to learning alot.
I'd like to have better SPM this year coming and better knowledge on how to remain chemical free. Varroa destructor is the worst. Year four and still no chemicals
total of 7 hives dead out of 21 in four years not bad for a new bee keeper but i have so much more to learn i'm sure this coming year is coing to be crazy i know this last year has been can't wait .
Say hello to the bad guy!
year five==== 31 hives==== T{OAV}
Purchase my first nuc.
[QUOTE=Charlie B;878912 You might as well surrender now Mike and give in to your addiction. Enjoy it while you can. It is useless to resist. There is no known cure. [/QUOTE]
Your wife already kicked the extractor out of the kitchen. When she kicks the whole operation and you out you might get cured. I hope you are not drying painted supers in the bedroom.
Od, a tolerant wife is one of life's sweetest pleasures.
I plan to make less honey and sell more bees.
My wife is tolerant of my beehive construction cause my shop and extracting room are 15 minutes away and she never has to clean them.
I was a little too ambitious inserting foundationless frames into brood and chilled a lot of brood last spring, so my #1 resolution is to NEVER AGAIN split the brood frames. I'll focus on inserting NEXT TO the brood.
My main resolution is to get started in queen rearing this year. Get a clear outline on what I will l need to have in place moving forward. I want to buy some land as well.
Everything gets darker, as it goes to where there is less light. Darrel Tank (5PM drawing instructor)
my beekeeping resolution is to start 2 TBH.
Make a plan, stick to it, be consistent, stay on task Look a squirrel, what was I saying again? Crap there goes another resolution.
Why do we fall, sir? So that we might learn to pick ourselves up Alfred Pennyworth Batman Begins (2005)
mine is to keep a journal,not only on my bees but my garden and maple syrup.
Wes, good idea. A journal is vital if you have more than 2 or 3 hives.
monitor for mites, try queenrearing, sell some nucs.
journaling the growth of a treatment free apiary started in 2010. 20+/- hives
To fund my beekeeping hobby through honey sales... finally
Try living life with the attitude it's not about what you want to do but what you should do!
Less procrastintion, now that we had done the lip balm thing maybe try some soap. Get a new pair of gym shorts. 8)

Big building boom on the way for OSU-Cascades
Four-year campus to provide hundreds of construction jobs
BEND, Ore. - A big building boom is on the way for Bend.
"Over the next 10 years we will be building between 70,000-140,000 square feet of residential and academic space," said Kelly Sparks, the associate vice president of finance and strategic planning at OSU-Cascades.
To build OSU-Cascades' four-year university, you need hands -- a lot of them.
OSU projects that for every $1 million, nine jobs are created.
"We will be putting $24 million into construction dollars, so 216 jobs at a minimum," Sparks said.
And with a goal of 4,000-5,000 students by 2025, some of those 216 jobs will become long-term.
"It will require buildings, it will require residential halls, it will require commercial space, so this is a long-term project, and we'll be putting up buildings every couple of years," Sparks said.
Officials at the Central Oregon Builders Association say this project will provide much-needed jobs, but the timing will be ... interesting.
"You already have an elementary and middle school being built, one in Bend and one in Crook County, so there will be a lot of competition out there," said Andy High with COBA.
It's competition that both local construction crews and regional companies could be bidding for.
"The positive for hiring local is there's just a lot of geography you may not know, different types of rock you run into that a local contractor just has better knowledge on," High said.
On the other hand, COBA officials say, hiring outside Central Oregon brings more people and more money into the region. But it's a Catch-22.
"Bringing people in will be a positive as well, but that will also add on to the housing and need, so there's a lot of factors as this university comes in," High said.
Sparks says they're still in the design phase, but the campus will be focused on health, fitness and culture.
"It's going to look modern, contemporary and on the edge, pushing us forward, but not something that's going to go out of date soon," Sparks said.
It won't come without challenges. Parking, road construction and transportation are all factors to be considered in the design process.
But all involved say the finished product will be one the entire community can be proud of.
"That university will be standing for 100-plus years and it will be pretty cool for workers to drive by 100 years from now and say, 'Our company built that, way back when,'" High said.
The OSU-Cascades Campus Expansion Advisory Committee will be looking for input and feedback on design ideas from you in the beginning of December.

I'm saying this as a big fan of Eli Manning and Tom Coughlin.
So much of this team's success is predicated on Eli being great every week. And usually, that's enough. His record speaks for itself.....the dude is clutch. But, he's human, too.
Our run game is complimentary....it's used primarily to set up the pass. The running back position is now essentially a blocker that might sometimes run. The most important attribute of the running back is how well he can pass protect, not his ability to run with the ball.
3rd and short is now a passing down. On 4th and short inside the opponent's 40, we punt because we can't pick up short yardage.
Our defense is built to pressure the passer, assuming a shootout with Eli.....the multi-purpose strengths of linebackers have been de-emphasized in favor of pass rushers who can harass the opposing QB.
Basically, this entire team revolves around Eli Manning. And when he is on, the offense is basically unstoppable.
But when he is off, or even average, the Giants struggle. They no longer have a running game that can choke out an opponent. A good example was the Steeler game. A 10 point 4th quarter lead turned to vapor because on offense, they couldn't control time of possession with their running game, and the defense was soft.
And when he has a bad game, it's pretty much lights out. This team no longer has a defense that can overcome Eli's turnovers......last week was a great example. A solid defense would hold Cincy to FG's, not touchdowns.
I don't want to turn this into another 50 page Simms v. Eli thread, but one of the biggest differences between the 2 QB's is the amount of pressure Eli has to be great every game. And a huge part of that is due to the fact that Simms had a running game and a defense that bailed him out on a regular basis.
That's what is holding this team back from being a "dynasty".....when I look at dynasty QBs - Brady, Aikman, Montana, Bradshaw - they all had a defense and a running game.
The Giants don't......and that's why they will always be a 9-7 to 10-6 team that will need to hope they get hot at the right moment to win it.
