Community College Virtual Symposium at Montgomery College
The Community College Virtual Symposium was held on April 27at Montgomery College in Silver Spring, Md. Organized by OVAE and sponsored by ED, the event was a capstone for a series that began last October with the White House Summit on Community Colleges, and was broadcast live to 1,200 registrants over the Web. Remarks were given by Montgomery College President DeRionne Pollard, Rep. Chris Van Hollen, Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, Dr. Jill Biden, and Under Secretary of Education Martha Kanter.
OVAE has led ED's efforts to continue a national discussion about community colleges by organizing regional summits held at community colleges in Philadelphia, Indianapolis, Houston, and San Diego. They were attended by educators, policymakers, and researchers, as well as by business, labor, philanthropy, and non-profit partners. The goal was to intensify the national focus on major issues faced by community colleges and increase the commitments to help them succeed in providing educational services to students and families.
As the culminating event, the symposium turned to scholars to review research about four critical topics related to student success:
- Promoting College and Career Readiness Among Low Skilled Adults;
- Aligning Secondary and Postsecondary CTE;
- Connecting Curriculum, Assessment, and Treatment in Developmental Education; and
- Integrating Industry-driven Competencies in Education and Training Through Employer Engagement.
In the coming weeks OVAE will post the results of these events on www.ed.gov/ovae.
OVAE Part of Interagency Council on Homelessness
The United States Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) was created to reduce homelessness in the nation. USICH partners with 19 federal agencies, state and local governments, advocates, service providers, and people experiencing homelessness. The USICH aims to achieve the goals of Opening Doors, the first federal strategic plan to prevent and end homelessness. The Department is among several federal agencies with programs to support the needs of populations experiencing homelessness, and OVAE is a participating office. Please access the Department of Education's focus areas to learn about its efforts, such as Promise Neighborhoods, the first federal initiative to put education at the center of efforts to fight poverty in urban and rural areas.
Virtual Data Quality Institute 2011 to Be Held
On June 7 and 8, OVAE will host the second Web-based Virtual Data Quality Institute (VDQI), "Link, Ensure, Build: Incorporating CTE into State Longitudinal Data Systems." Sessions will focus on helping states to:
- Link data for CTE students across secondary and postsecondary programs;
- Ensure data can be accessed, analyzed, and used; and
- Build the capacity of stakeholders to use data for decision making.
Participation is open to all interested parties. For more information, contact the Perkins Collaborative Resource Network (PCRN) website at: http://cte.ed.gov/.

ECU read to start preseason practice
ECU read to start preseason practice
GREENVILLE - East Carolina Head Football Coach Ruffin McNeill's fourth season is officially underway as he welcomed members of his 105-man preseason roster to campus Thursday afternoon to kick off the 2013 campaign.
The student-athletes moved into Aycock Dorm on campus before handling traditional check-in responsibilities such as physicals, equipment-fitting sessions, portrait photos and mandated NCAA meetings. ECU then began preparations for its initial practice of camp scheduled for Friday afternoon before hosting its annual media day activities on Saturday.
East Carolina returns eight starters on offense, eight on the defensive side of the ball and welcomes back a total of 50 lettermen off a team that also recorded a 7-1 Conference USA East Division co-championship mark. In addition, ECU closed the regular season by winning five of its last six games and stood among the nation's Top 30 in five different statistical categories - including a No. 3 rank in redzone efficiency, a No. 4 rating in fourth down conversion percentage and a No. 10 finish in fewest penalties. The Pirates also return 76 percent of their rushing yards, 88 percent of their passing yards and 81.8 percent of their turnover production.
Of the 16 returnees, Vintavious Cooper (RB), Justin Hardy (WR), Derrell Johnson (LB) and Will Simmons (OL) all garnered preseason first-team all-league honors by the league's head coaches. The quartet of honorees also earned preseason all-conference accolades by Athlon Sports and Phil Steele's College Football Preview Magazine, while being named to the Biletnikoff Award (top receiver), Butkus Award (top linebacker) and Outland Trophy (top interior lineman) Watch Lists.
ECU also returns five starters on special teams including Warren Harvey (PK) and Trent Tignor (P), who were preseason watch list nominees for the Lou Groza (top place kicker) and Ray Guy (top punter) awards.
Hardy (All-Purpose Player-of-the-Year nominee), Harvey (place kicker), Johnson (top 40 linebackers at the FBS level nominee), Tignor (punter) and quarterback Shane Carden (offense) also garnered College Football Performance Awards (CFPA) Watch List honors.
Also headlining the list of fall returnees are 13 seniors who were members of the season-ending positional depth chart in 2012, including receivers Justin Jones and Reese Wiggins, offensive linemen Jordan Davis and Adhem Elsawi, running back Zico Pasut, defensive lineman Lee Pegues, linebackers Ty Holmes, Kyle Tudor and Gabriel Woullard, cornerback Adonis Armstrong and safeties Damon Magazu and Chip Thompson.
Newcomers to East Carolina's squad include junior college transfers RB Breon Allen and OL Marquis Wallace, as well as true freshmen DE Randall Anderson, DL Malcom Ashley, DL Demage Bailey, QB Kurt Benkert, DB DaShawn Benton, WR Trevon Brown, ILB Devaris Brunson, OLB Kirk Donaldson, TE Darren Dowdell, OWR Davon Grayson, RB Marquez Grayson, OLB Pat Green, OWR Isaiah Jones, OL Christian Matau, DE Demetri McGill, NT Mike Myers, DB Travis Phillips, DB Travon Simmons, OL Brandon Smith, DB Xavier Smith and OL Larry Williams. Anderson, Benkert and Brandon Smith enrolled in January and were able to go through the spring practice period with the Pirates.
Although absent during Thursday's check-in, McNeill remains hopeful that Ashley, Bailey and Brown would join their new teammates at some point during camp or at the start of fall classes on Aug. 20.
In addition to the signees, ECU's roster is also bolstered by six new invited walk-ons - DE Joe Allely, QB B.J. Beecher, DB Edward Fulp, IWR Jacen Murphy, RB Marquise Sherrod-Ponds and IWR Jimmy Williams.

Trust. Collaboration. Action.
United against environmental destruction and poverty, we stand.
Carbon dioxide emissions are local, but their effects are global. There are one hundred and ninety four countries on this globe, big and small; their boundaries are fixed but the air that they breathe is shared. No matter who contributes how much to the CO2 burden, all nations suffer together. The USA, China, and India are the largest producers of carbon dioxide in the world, and if we don't start decreasing emissions and transitioning away from fossil fuels, the repercussions will be felt throughout the world. We are looked upon as a world leader but if we do not lead by example, we are destined to be followers. It is of the utmost importance that this transition starts now, because if emissions are not curbed significantly by 2050, then the tipping point of climate change will be reached. In addition, a transition away from fossil fuels is key to not only creating countless new jobs in green industries, but also in mitigating the impact of peak oil and decrease the amount of pollutants in our atmosphere. During a time when there are major differences between developed and developing nations as how to mitigate climate change, Project Jatropha aims to demonstrate the commitment of the youth in developed countries to environmental issues that affect the developing nations.
A significant number of small farmers in the villages of Hunsur Taluk, Mysore, Southern India make a living by growing tobacco that they export. To most subsistence farmers this is the only crop that brings in some money. The raw tobacco leaves are processed in barns using firewood, which is scarce. The villagers are forced to cut down trees to fuel the curing of tobacco. The destruction of forest is harming regional biodiversity: for example, the agents who supply firewood for villagers are infringing on the boundaries of the Nagarahole (Rajiv Gandhi) National Park, which is a wild animal sanctuary. Consequently, human-animal conflicts have started to become much more common and dangerous. The Indian government recently signed the Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, and will aim to cut down tobacco cultivation by half by the year 2020. (Article from 10/11/2008, The Hindu Newspaper) The Indian government is trying to wean the farmers away from growing tobacco by offering a compensation packages. However, this solution will not be sufficient, as the money would run out soon, if no alternative commercial crops are available.
What exactly is Jatropha curcas?
Jatropha curcas is a small, perennial shrub that grows 3-5 meters in height. It was originally native to Central America, and grows well in the tropics. It has many uses, among them biofuel, cosmetics, and fertilizer.
Why use Jatropha?
Jatropha curcas produces seed that contain an inedible vegetable oil that is used to produce biofuel. Each Jatropha seed produces between 35 to 37% of its mass in oil.
• It is drought resistant.
• It can be grown almost anywhere - even in sandy, saline, or infertile soil.
• It adapts well to marginal soils with low nutrient content.
• It is relatively easy to propagate.
• It is not invasive or damaging.
• It is capable of stabilizing sand dunes, acting as a windbreak or combating desertification.
• It naturally repels insects and animals do not browse it.
• It lives for over 50 years producing seeds all the time.
• It is resilient against the cold.
• It does not exhaust the nutrients in the land; rather, it rejuvenates overused land.
• It does not require expensive crop rotation.
• It does not require fertilizers.
• It grows quickly and establishes itself easily.
• It has a high yield.
• No displacement of food crops is necessary.
• The biodiesel byproduct, glycerin, is profitable in itself.
• The waste plant mass after oil extraction can be used as a fertilizer.
• The plant itself recycles 100% of the CO2 emissions produced by burning the biodiesel; two mature plants can absorb 1 metric ton of carbon every year.
In his book, Hot, Flat, and Crowded, Pulitzer Prize Winning Author Thomas L. Friedman gives 4 criterion that any biofuel must meet: It must have a large positive energy input, not destroy biodiversity-rich land, must not release large amounts of carbon dioxide when grown, and must not solve one problem only to create another. Jatropha meets all of these criterion.
Our Jatropha project differs from the ones that are currently in place. The project that we have undertaken started at the grassroots level. Our "Project Jatropha" mission has two collaborators: Parivarthana and Labland Biotechs. Parivarthana is a non-governmental organization which is involved in rural poverty alleviation, environmental protection, and sustainable rural development. It is located at Hunsur Taluk, Mysore District, Karnataka State. Labland Biotechs is a plant biotechnology company located in Mysore. It has a modern biotechnology lab and a modern green house for mass multiplication of different plants, including Jatropha curcas. This is a cooperative mission between these collaborators. We are the facilitators, the catalysts, who brought the different groups together. The beneficiaries are farmers and women's self help groups (SHGs).
The project's main goal is to enable these farmers to grow Jatropha either as a hedge plant or as an intercrop on a scale that would be economically viable.

Division of Fine Arts and Humanities will be auditioning cast members on Thursday and Friday for a spring production of For Colored Girls.
Auditions will take place beginning at 7:15 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 20, and at 4:15 p.m. Friday, Jan. 21, in the RJ Wills Lecture Hall, located on the second floor of the Campus Center. Auditions last about two hours. Faculty, staff and students can try-out, but actresses need to be women of color.
A 30-minute pre-audition will be held 4:15-4:45 p.m. today in the RJ Wills Lecture Hall.
A total of 28 women will be cast for the production with three people cast for each character to represent young, middle age, and older characters.
Performances will take place March 17-19 at the Mosaic Templars Building in downtown Little Rock. Showtimes will be at 7:30 p.m. nightly with a 2:30 p.m. matinee on March 18.
For Colored Girls was written in the 19070s by Ntozake Shange and is considered a choreopoem, which is meant to be performed and danced. Tyler Perry did a film version of it in the fall. Pulaski Tech's production, however, will focus on the original text.
PTC theatre instructor April Gentry-Sutterfield is co-directing the choreopoem with Little Rock actress Verda Davenport-Booher.

Re: Pancakes !
a "savoury pancake", as discussed here, ranges from a sweet American style pancake with a savoury side-dish like bacon or sausage, to a French crȇpe-style thin pancake filled with savoury fillings such as meat, cheese or vegetables.
Come now people, you've never heard of a pancake with savoury filling or side?
Example: we had the greatest crȇpes in Madrid, called "crȇpes Catalan", filled with spinach, cheese, raisins, etc., in Amsterdam we had fantastic huge crȇpes filled with ham and cheese, egg, curry, all kinds of stuff! - so how come this is so strange to you?

Re: Pancakes !
As simple as it may sound a pancake was always just a pancake! Its the beauty of a forum like this. I remember being at a "pancake house" in Europe and being appaled at the fact you were even offered to eat them with anything but Canadian Bacon, maple syrup and sausages, with maybe eggs and a toasted english muffin with melted cheddar. A very typical Canadian pancake meal. Dont forget the coffee and milk seperate on the side.
To me crepes are always filled with unique things. Maybe I'm confused crepes are always thin and easily rolled with goodies yes? Whereas pancakes (flapjacks) are thick round bready things covered in whatever your choice is. I've listed mine above.
19 years later I'm now willing to be educated.

Re: Pancakes !
Ha! DMfc,
I especially like pancakes used almost like cannelloni, wrapped up around ricotta and spinach with tomato sauce over and baked for a little.
But I do make savoury pancakes where herbs and grated cheese are added to the pancake mix, maybe a little chilli too, finely sliced spring onions and so on.
And I think savoury pancakes reach their culinary heights with those southern Indian pancakes made from rice and urad dal (dosas) and have chilli, curry leaves and so on in them. O yum, I love them so much!

MsP: Flavored maple syrups: melt butter and maple syrup with: blueberries, strawberries, orange juice, blackberries. Using these helps cut down a bit on how much butter and syrup you need to use.

Banana Chilli Variety
Hi guys
I just bought a 'Jamie Oliver' banana chilli plant with 20 great chillies on.
Just wondering if anyone has had any success growing these? It says it needs well drained soil? What does this mean?
Thank you
#2 Thu 29 Mar 12 1:29am
Re: Banana Chilli Variety
Hi Jinglewaffle,
Well drained soil means the water won't sit around the roots of the chili plant and rot them.
As far as I know, chili plants need roughly the same care, no matter what type they are. I grow mine in a pot (so it is very well draining!), and in our temperate climate it lasts through winter, so it is 3 years old now.
Will yours be in pot or garden?
#3 Thu 29 Mar 12 9:15am
Re: Banana Chilli Variety
Mine will be in a pot
#4 Thu 29 Mar 12 10:47am
Re: Banana Chilli Variety
Hopefully the label will suggest what size pot. Good quality potting mix will make it very happy free draining wise! It will need the sort of plant food that keeps it growing more chilies too. There is good info about feeding in this article:
#5 Thu 29 Mar 12 10:50am
Re: Banana Chilli Variety
Thanks again
So would you say it's time to pick a few chillies off and let them ripen in this kitchen? Assuming they do ripen once picked?
I'm thinking of drying or maybe pickling them.
#6 Thu 29 Mar 12 1:03pm
Re: Banana Chilli Variety
I haven't done the picking off early trick, but I will try it next year!
I don't think they ripen much once picked, but hopefully someone who knows more will come along and let us know!

Girl, born September 2012
Down syndrome, post-op CHD
Listed March 23, 2015
Spring is just adorable! She came into care when she was 7 months old (approximately), and was found to have Down syndrome as well as a congenital heart defect. She had surgery in 2013 to correct the TOF/ASD (Tetrology of Fallot / atrial septal defect) and recovered well. Spring is a very quiet, very sweet little one who really needs a caring, loving family, who will provide her the therapy she requires. Spring has the typical delays seen in little ones with Down syndrome, and being confined to her stroller/walker is not helping her. Spring's left ear folds down a bit, but there is no known hearing issue involved. They have noted in her file that Spring's favorite activity is "being held" (how sweet is that!?). This little one is ready for a family.

New Faculty Publication: Dr. King publishes article in International Journal of Urban and Regional Research
Mar 15/13
Dr. Loren King has published a new article entitled: "Seeking like a Theorist" in International Journal of Urban and Regional Research Vol. 37 No. 2 pp. 804-814.
Abstract: Warren Magnusson sees a problem endemic to
political thought and practice: we see the world in ways that presume
and reaffirm the necessity of a sovereign territorial state, on pain of
violent disorder in its absence. The solution is to see like a city,
shaking off the dualism of sovereignty versus anarchy and finding a
richer space of political possibilities. I admire and applaud
Magnussons critical efforts to challenge dominant categories and
illuminate possibilities, but these aims rest uneasily with his
polemical contrast between sovereignty and cities.

FAQs for Dental Fluorosis
- Overview
- What is dental fluorosis?
- Who develops dental fluorosis?
- What does dental fluorosis look like?
- What causes dental fluorosis?
- What are the common sources of fluoride?
- What accounts for most of the fluoride intake?
- In which communities can dental fluorosis be found?
- What parents and caregivers can do to reduce the occurrence of dental fluorosis
- What health care and public health professionals can do to reduce the occurrence of dental fluorosis
- What consumer product industries and health agencies can do to reduce the occurrence of dental fluorosis
The proper amount of fluoride helps prevent and control tooth decay in children and adults. Fluoride works both while the teeth are developing and every day after the teeth have emerged through the gums. Fluoride consumed during tooth development can also result in a range of visible changes to the enamel surface of the tooth. These changes have been broadly termed dental fluorosis, or dental fluorosis.
Dental fluorosis is a change in the appearance of the tooth's enamel. These changes can vary from barely noticeable white spots in mild forms to staining and pitting in the more severe forms. Dental fluorosis only occurs when younger children consume too much fluoride, from any source, over long periods when teeth are developing under the gums.
Who develops dental fluorosis?
Only children aged 8 years and younger can develop dental fluorosis because this is when permanent teeth are developing under the gums.
- Once the teeth erupt through the gums and are in the mouth, they can no longer develop fluorosis.
- The teeth of children older than 8 years, adolescents, and adults cannot develop dental fluorosis.
What does dental fluorosis look like?
- Very mild and mild forms of dental fluorosis—teeth have scattered white flecks, occasional white spots, frosty edges, or fine, lacy chalk-like lines. These changes are barely noticeable and difficult to see except by a dental health care professional.
- Moderate and severe forms of dental fluorosis—teeth have larger white spots and, in the rare, severe form, rough, pitted surfaces.
Dental fluorosis is caused by taking in too much fluoride over a long period when the teeth are forming under the gums. Only children aged 8 years and younger are at risk because this is when permanent teeth are developing under the gums. The severity of the condition depends on the dose (how much), duration (how long), and timing (when consumed) of fluoride intake.
Increases in the occurrence of mostly mild dental fluorosis were recognized as more sources of fluoride became available to prevent tooth decay. These sources include drinking water with fluoride, fluoride toothpaste—especially if swallowed by young children—and dietary prescription supplements in tablets or drops (particularly if prescribed to children already drinking fluoridated water).
What are the common sources of fluoride?
- Toothpaste (if swallowed by young children).
- Drinking water in fluoridated communities.
- Beverages and food processed with fluoridated water.
- Dietary prescription supplements that include fluoride (e.g., tablets or drops).
- Other professional dental products (e.g., mouth rinses, gels, and foams).
What accounts for most of the fluoride intake?
In the United States, water and processed beverages (e.g., soft drinks and fruit juices) can provide approximately 75% of a person's fluoride intake. Inadvertent swallowing of toothpaste and inappropriate use of other dental products containing fluoride can result in greater intake than desired. For this reason the CDC recommends parents supervise the use of fluoride toothpaste by children under the age of 6 to encourage them to spit out excess toothpaste. Also avoid the use of fluoride mouth rinses in children who are younger than 6 years old because the mouth rinse could be repeatedly swallowed.
In which communities can dental fluorosis be found?
Dental fluorosis occurs among some persons in all communities, even in those with a low natural concentration of fluoride in the drinking water.
What parents and caregivers can do to reduce the occurrence of dental fluorosis—
Know the fluoride concentration of your drinking water
You should know the fluoride concentration in your primary source of drinking water, especially if you have young children. This information should help with decisions about using other fluoride products, particularly fluoride tablets or drops that your physician or dentist may prescribe for your young child. Fluoride tablets or drops should not be used at all if your drinking water has the recommended fluoride concentration of 0.7 mg/L or higher.
If you live in a state that participates in CDC's My Water's Fluoride, you can find out your water system's fluoridation status online. If you are on a public water system, you can call the water utility company and request a copy of the utility's most recent Consumer Confidence Report.
For very young children, less than 2 years old:
Do not use fluoride toothpaste unless advised to do so by your doctor or dentist. You should clean your child's teeth as soon as the first tooth appears by brushing without toothpaste with a small, soft-bristled toothbrush and plain water.
For children aged 2 to 6 years, apply no more than a pea-sized amount of fluoride toothpaste to the brush and supervise their toothbrushing, encouraging the child to spit out the toothpaste rather than swallow it. Until about age 6, children have poor control of their swallowing reflex and frequently swallow most of the toothpaste placed on their brush.
See Brush Up on Healthy Teeth for further guidance.
Use an alternative source of water for children aged 8 years and younger if your primary drinking water contains greater than 2 mg/L of fluoride
In some regions of the United States, public water systems and private wells contain a natural fluoride concentration of more than 2 mg/L, and at this concentration, children 8 years and younger have a greater chance for developing dental fluorosis, including the moderate and severe forms. These children should have an alternative source of drinking water that contains fluoride at the recommended level.Top of Page
What health care and public health professionals can do to reduce the occurrence of dental fluorosis—
Counsel parents and caregivers regarding use of fluoride toothpaste by young children
Parents or caregivers should be counseled on the use of fluoride toothpaste by young children, especially those younger than 2 years. There is an increased chance for dental fluorosis for children younger than 6 years, and especially for those younger than 2 years, because they are more likely to swallow the toothpaste than older children.
For children younger than 2 years, you should consider the fluoride level in the community drinking water, other sources of fluoride, and factors likely to affect susceptibility to tooth decay when weighing the risk and benefits of using fluoride toothpaste. When assessing the risks and benefits, determine if the child may be at high risk for tooth decay because of factors such as poor hygiene, poor diet, or history of decay in the child, and in their siblings or parents.
Target mouth rinses to children at high risk for developing tooth decay
Because fluoride mouth rinses have resulted in only limited reductions in tooth decay among children, especially as their exposure to other sources of fluoride has increased, their use should be targeted to individuals and groups at high risk for decay.
Children younger than 6 years should not use a fluoride mouth rinse without parents first consulting a dentist or physician because there is a possibility for dental fluorosis if these rinses are repeatedly swallowed.
Prescribe fluoride supplements judiciously
Fluoride supplements can be prescribed for children at high risk for tooth decay and whose primary source of drinking water has a low fluoride level. If the children are younger than 6 years, however, then the dentist or physician should weigh the risks for developing decay without supplements with the possibility of developing dental fluorosis. Other sources of fluoride, especially drinking water, should be considered when determining this balance. Parents and caregivers should be informed of both the benefits and risks of fluoride supplements.
Fluoride supplements can be prescribed for persons as appropriate or used in school-based programs. When practical, supplements should be prescribed as chewable tablets or lozenges to maximize the topical effects of fluoride.
The prescription dosage of fluoride supplements should be consistent with the schedule established by the American Dental Association (ADA) Council on Scientific Affairs.
What consumer product industries and health agencies can do to reduce the occurrence of dental fluorosis—
Label the fluoride concentration of bottled water
Producers of bottled water should label the fluoride concentration of their products. Such labeling would allow consumers to make informed decisions.
Promote the use of a small amount of fluoride toothpaste for children younger than 6 years
Labels and advertisements for fluoride toothpaste should promote using only a pea-sized amount (0.25g) of toothpaste on a child-sized toothbrush for children younger than 6 years. Parents and caregivers should be encouraged to supervise their children's toothbrushing to reduce the swallowing of excess toothpaste.
Professional health care organizations, public health agencies, and suppliers of oral care products should collaborate to educate health care professionals and the public.

Whether you're home or on the road, showers are a sacred rite of solitude, so make sure your supporting cast is up to par. This lineup of shower essentials pairs shampoo and conditioner with two different skin cleansers for a truly comprehensive clean.
My boyfriend enjoy this gift so much. I gave it to him for christmas as one of his stocking stuffers. It is cheaper to buy it in this kit then to buy each product separately. This set would also we great as a gift for that random someone who you don't know what to get. Who doesn't love a invigorating mild shampoo, a great smelling body soap, and a non oil stripping face wash with no nasty scent?! Not too sure about the conditioner as the fourth item. They could have came with something a little more useful for men such as shave balm or something. I don't know that many men who would use conditioner since most men have short hair.5
I would give the shampoo and conditioner 5-stars. I wasn't so impressed by the body or fash wash. The body wash is decent, but I don't really like the lime/pomegranate scent. The face wash is really boring - no scent, REALLY gentle... it didn't get rid of any excess oils. In the future I will likely just buy the mint shampoo and conditioner and save myself $30.4
All of the products have been great however not being able to choose a scent for the body wash is a bit of a bummer. Was hoping for the Italian Lime since that's what Baxter Advertises on their site for the Kit but ended up with the Bergamot/Pear. It still smells good, keeps me fresh and clean. The shampoo and conditioner have been a big improvement from my previous hair care routine. Do a great job of keeping my hair soft and malleable. Lastly the Face wash is refreshing whether I use it at night or in the mornings. Overall a great value for some terrific products.4

A few days ago we reported the story of a Danish newspaper reporter who was covering a Bush story in Texas when he inadvertently stepped into a Texas garden only to be confronted by a pistol packing irate Texas woman who told him to get off her precious property. Since appearance of the story, the Copenhagen Post has been deluged with replies from all over th state of Texas. Most letters were apologetic in tone insisting average Texans don't present guns if people place a foot on their home land. Tim Roberts, writing from Midland, Texas, told the Danes, "Although we Texans are assertive of our right to bear arms, most of us understand the rules of carrying a weapon and we do not take them lightly. Brandishing a firearm is a crime in Texas and charges can be filed even if the incident occurs on one's own property." However, an elderly woman urged the good people of Denmark "to understand the fear she lives in daily. And, be glad you live in a civilized society."
I wonder about any place where someone stepping a foot on your lawn heightens fear. Maybe, it's connected to President Bush being in the vicinty. Gee, that man can't seem to avoid having people wave guns when he comes to town. I don't know how civilized them Danes are, after all they had that prince whose stepfather killed his dad. To wave a gun or not to wave a gun, that is the question!

I will be getting mine next week. I am going with the long sniper rifle. The pre pro gun just doesn't look right with the rest of statue
What edition number did you get?
not sure I'll have to look tomorrow.
That's awesome!
It's # 1171 which is crazy to me since I ordered it like 30 seconds after preorders started.
Me too. Hopefully mine will be under #2000, but who knows. I wonder how they determine who gets which number. I'm surprised its taken this long to get it. Pre orders opened around October last year, and hey are finally shipping. The mythos vader is supposed to ship next month (pre orders for that one started this February), but I would be surprised to see it before Xmas.
Man, I so don't need one but this has been tempting me for a while.
Personally, I guess I'd go with the Pre-pro sling blaster for display, though neither are that ideal. The sling blaster looks too small and the other looks way too big. Boba would need arms like Arnold to hold that giant blaster rifle like that. To me it almost makes the rifle look "fake" because it doesn't come across as heavy as I'd think it would be.

PG Jackson makes name for himself at Wisconsin
ARLINGTON, Texas - Wisconsin point guard Traevon Jackson has one up on his famous father when it comes to accomplishments on the basketball court.
Jim Jackson was a two-time All-American at Ohio State, but never played in the Final Four.
He'll be watching Saturday night when Traevon guides the Badgers into a national semifinal against Kentucky.
Like other Badgers, the younger Jackson struggled during a midseason slump when Wisconsin went 1-5. Turnovers were up, and the shooting percentage was down.
He has played much better since then. The assist-to-turnover ratio has improved. Jackson is shooting 89 percent from the foul line in the tournament.
Assistant coach Gary Close says Jackson is a tireless worker who has created his own niche in the family by getting to the Final Four.

Over the objections of about a dozen speakers, the Marina Coast Water District board approved the water supply assessment for the proposed Monterey Downs project Tuesday, though perhaps only temporarily.
After opposing the measure, board member Jan Shriner voted with Bob Lee, Ken Nishi and Howard Gustafson to approve it so she can bring it back for consideration under parliamentary rules in the future. Shriner is expected to be part of a progressive majority when newly elected Peter Le and Tom Moore join the board in December.
The sitting board could vote again if a special meeting is called in advance.
The water assessment concluded that the Monterey Downs project will require 852 acre-feet of water per year, while Seaside and Monterey County, whose jurisdictions the project straddles, have only 382 acre-feet of unallocated water, enough to supply an initial phase. The remainder would have to come from as-yet unapproved and unfunded desalination or recycled water projects.
The equestrian-themed project on Parker Flats would include 1,500 residential units, plus retail, office and sport facilities for athletes and horses. It would also include the California Central Coast Veterans Cemetery and Seaside's new corporation yard.
Monterey Downs managing partner Brian Boudreau said the existing water allocation would be sufficient for most of the houses in the project, which are planned in the first phase. It will likely be five years before construction begins on that phase, he said, and eight years before recycled water is needed.
Though agricultural interests are balking at sharing recycled water with Peninsula housing interests, Boudreau believes they will not block Monterey Downs.
"They like us a lot," he said, referring to the list of supporters on Monterey Downs' website. "They know it's good for the community."
Numerous speakers objected to passage of the assessment, which will be part of the project's environmental impact review. Some complained they had insufficient time to review it over a holiday weekend; others said they couldn't access it at all on the district's website.
Additionally, several pointed out inconsistencies between figures cited in the assessment and those included in earlier reports by the water district, the Fort Ord Reuse Authority and other agencies.
One inconsistency was the report's assertion, based on the cemetery's master plan, that it would include no grass. Cemetery advocate Jack Stewart said after the meeting it was a "faulty" assertion and water-needs assessment because the cemetery would include drought-tolerant grass.
Opponent Sue Hawthorne objected after the meeting that public speaking had been cut off when board member Nishi asked Monterey Downs developer Beth Palmer to explain the purpose of the assessment. Palmer said it was only to allow the California Environmental Quality Act process to move forward and would have no role in final approval of site maps.
"We have a lame duck board voting on something they haven't read based on the assurance of the developer that it's the right thing to do," Hawthorne said.
After the meeting, Palmer and Boudreau said their project would actually save the Peninsula water by storing more recycled water than it needs in a pond in the middle of its horse-racing track. The water, as much as 600 acre-feet per year, is currently dumped in the ocean in winter months, they said.
Also Tuesday, the board voted to extend the contract of general manager Jim Heitzman, with Shriner again seeking to bring the matter back for reconsideration.
Heitzman has come under fire in the wake of the failed regional desalination project. Nishi said Heitzman is the only person who can possibly recoup the $10 million the district lost in the project, which failed after revelations came to light about potential conflicts of interest posed by former county water board member Steve Collins' work with a private firm that eventually won a $25 million contract to manage the project.
Collins is in the midst of a preliminary hearing to determine if he will stand charges on numerous felony and misdemeanor counts in connection with that work.
