I am in Columbus GA. I am enjoying my new hobby. I generally am busy getting the garden in but have loved getting started in this new addiction. I want to thank you all in advance for all your experience and knowledge. I have spent hours already reading and reading all I can learn about bees.
I would love to become a regular poster someday when I can actually bring some sort of advice to the table but until then, I most likely will be lurking.
I do have a blog. Mainly it is to document my crazy life and the adventures I encounter living in it. I have added some pics of my new Bee Hobby.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Dlev59, Apr 17, 2008.
pistons and suns
I know you are suppose to pick now, but the only team I see completing a first round sweep is the Celtics. The other three series in the east will probaly all go at least 5-6 games. One of the top six teams in the league will be gone after the first round after the Suns and Spurs meet. The Hornets would have been better served playing the Nuggets, but blew that oportunity by losing to the same team they will open with. I think the Lakers would have had a harder time with the Mavs than Denver, since Dallas would have at least played some D...now it will be a 130-125 games with most of the Nuggets fouling out in the end per Sterns's directive so the Lakers can out last them. We can probably choose three of the final four right now, the but that 4th one is up in the air.
How pissed would this forum be if Philly stretches the Pistons to 7? I hope Sheed and co. aren't "bored" with first-round matchups.
I voted Lakers vs. Pistons at ESPN.
Pistons vs Spurs ...I'm such a homer.
This is the fun part about this team. They could probably sweep Philly if they put their mind to it, but they could also get "bored" and extend the series unnecessarily.
I'd like to see Pistons vs. Hornets. But then we'd be harrassed by the media telling everyone that it is the lowest rated Finals in history and the NBA needs to change the rules to prevent things like this from ever happening again. 2nd choice would be Pistons vs. Spurs, and have us completely demolish them to end their reign. Next year Bonner would be a starter.
It couldn't be worse than last year's ratings.
On the Detroit Pistons website, at least 4% of the fans voted that the Sixers would actually win the series
Must be Philly trolls. :nerd2:
A win is a win no matter who watches it, still goes in the record books.. I'm OK with playing the Spurs and Hornets cause I think we can beat them and beating. I must admit though I skeptical about playing the Lakers because if we lose I would have to put up with it for a whole year....and just don't trust our psyche in playing the Jazz especially since they have those 3 middle games at home...
These people must think that AA isn't going to be in the rotation.
No other explanation...
Currently 36% of the vote at the Sixers website has the Pistons winning the series...
I'm gonna go with BOS vs SA or BOS vs PHX. I think Shaq is going to make a big difference for PHX when the game slows down. SA can get back if their injuries don't make it too difficult. The only way I see Kobe getting back to the dance is if he's gets the D Wade express all post season long.
Don`t think the Pistons can take out the Celtics huh Low? As far as Kobe getting the D-Wade Express - I can hear Stern yelling as I type this..................ALL ABOARD!!!!!!!!!
Im doing mine like the NCAA tourney: EAST WEST-_______ BOSTON LOS ANGELES CLEVELAND UTAH ORLANDO SAN ANTONIO DETROIT DALLAS BOSTON UTAH DETROIT SAN ANTONIO DETROIT SAN ANTONIO DETROIT
I think the Pistons have a better chance of winning it this year than most give them credit for. Starters mins have been down, we have a bench which means plenty of weapons to throw at Boston. But 1st we have to get past Philly and Orlando. Get past Boston and the West just does not have that one great team anymore. I am not too worried about the Sixers. They just don't have the frontcourt to compete with us. And Milller/Green vs out guards should definetly go our way ( even if Afflalo does not play much ). Even if Igodala tourches Prince it will still not be enough for them. And I can see Orlando falling apart against the Pistons. They don't have enough of a backcourt to keep up.
I truly believe that the Pistons have the talent to win it all. They are that good and very deep. But at some point they will be tested and will look to Flip for leadership. He will simply send his starters back out there and fail to make the necessary adjustments. End of season...again. I hope I am wrong on this. I also strongly sense that AMIR JOHNSON will no longer be a secret when these playoffs are over. He will have at least one breakout game that will draw the attention of the entire league, and he may even affect an entire series or more. Good luck Pistons!

Dog credited with saving family from carbon monoxide leak
BRISTOL, Va. - A local family is recovering after a close call with silent killer.
Six people were taken to the hospital after deadly carbon monoxide gas seeped into their home. The family was asleep and had no idea they were being poisoned.
As they slept, a series of very fortunate events saved them, and it all started with the family dog.
Buster Brown is Michael Carr's best friend and family pet; now he's a hero as well.
Carr tells News 5 he'd just moved into his home on New Hampshire Avenue on July 3 and the power had not yet been turned on. They improvised to cool down the home with an air conditioning unit. "We used a generator to have some power. We decided to put it in the basement so no one would steal it," said Carr.
Little did he know that could have been a fatal act.
Thursday evening he and his dog had gone to bed, but around 2 a.m. Buster started to act strange. "He climbed up on top of my head, sat down on my face and I was trying to get him off into the bed. He fell off and he was just useless, like he was drunk," said Carr. "I thought he'd been poisoned, eaten some rat poison or something."
He tells us his girlfriend left the home to get milk. "She made it right back here and that's where she fell on the steps," said Carr.
Carr says she was lifeless. That's when he began looking for help and found it coming up the street. "There was a life-saving crew that was coming up the road that wasn't even coming here. It was going over to Brother Road and I stopped them," said Carr.
After some investigating, crews discovered carbon monoxide in the home that was slowly poisoning the family -- and it was coming from that generator in the basement.
Carr says he thought someone else staying there would turn it off before going to sleep, but six hours later the generator was still running. "If it hadn't been for Buster we would have been right on down to the end of time," said Carr.
Buster Brown is now more than just Carr's best friend, he's his hero. "Things work in mysterious ways I guess, sometimes for the good, sometimes they're bad. [This] happened for the good," said Carr.
We learned everyone who was inside the home returned safely.
As for Buster Brown, Carr says the family will be eternally grateful to him for saving their lives.

Playboy.com's Guide to Mad Men Life & Style: Cigars
Check out our cigar life and style guide while you wait for Mad Men to return to the airwaves.
It's been a long absence from AMC's hit series, Mad Men, but the smoke is finally about to clear. Don Draper is back, and with the Season 5 premiere slated to air on Sunday, March 25th, we've come up with a few ways to help infuse your life with the essence of Mad Men.
The life of an Ad Man on Madison Avenue is all about flux. Triumph and failure; celebration and grief; prosperity and despair. Thankfully, for all of the above, there is liquor.
But in high times, the need arises for something more indulgent. A burning tribute to success.
A cigar.
Mad Men celebrates two things in abundance: masculinity and smoking. And for all intents and purposes, the two go hand in nicotine-stained hand. Granted, Mad Menfocuses heavily on cigarettes but being a show steeped in attitude, we'll expand into the luxury-lined halls of cigar culture.
Ever the symbol of elite machismo and success, the idea of cigars seems to exist in a purple-hued haze emanating from behind some velvet curtain, cut off from access by the everyman. But thanks to the internet, the rest of us can enjoy the luxury of cigars without passing that heavy veil.
Wanna feel like a heavy hitter? Scroll down and spark up.
The New Account
You've lured a new account to the firm. It's an occasion to celebrate, but the real work has just begun. While the creatives conjure ideas to pitch to your new client, treat yourself to a Corona, from Erin Go Bragh. These cigars are well-priced at 20 cigars to a box, and boast a deceptively simple flavor profile: sweet, crisp tobacco and sharp Irish whiskey. The 100% Dominican long-leaf tobacco (exotic without being contraband) strikes the perfect balance of bold and mild, making for a satisfying smoke that won't leave you breathless. Available here for $49.95
The Promotion
You've landed the new client, full hog. You've performed well, and you've been aptly rewarded with the highest milestone: the promotion. Now isn't the time to party; it's time to reflect on your success with a good cigar that will get the cogs turning: the Acid Atom Maduro. Created by Drew Estates, this cigar takes the classic tobacco flavor and runs away with it, using an innovative curing technique to infuse each tobacco leaf with natural herbs, spices and oils. Well-aged and wrapped in a Nicaraguan Maduro leaf, the Acid Atom Maduro delivers a punchy, medium-full bodied smoke with complex flavors. It's smooth, but you'll want to be seated for this. Available here for $147.95
The Secret Stash
Consider this piece a treasure chest for your collection of fine cigars. Never mind success or celebration, these cigars are reserved for only those moments that sneak up on you, that can never really be named or described, but require tribute nonetheless. Keep them behind lock and key, in pristine condition for whenever—if ever—they're needed. The Versailles humidor is cedar-lined (to keep the cigars fresh) and finished in high-gloss cherry, so it'll look great on your desk. Or under it; "x" marks the spot. Available here for $97.95

Kids nationwide will be doing more than collecting sweet treats this Halloween. They'll be helping needy children around the world too. You'll recognize these Halloween helpers by the bright orange donation boxes they'll be carrying. The easy-to-spot box is a signature item of the annual Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF campaign.
UNICEF, or the United Nations Children's Fund, was founded in 1946. It was originally created to help children who were struggling from the devastating effects of World War II. Today, the humanitarian organization provides millions of kids all over the globe with clean water, improved nutrition, health care, access to education and emergency assistance.
More than two million children nationwide are expected to take part in Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF on Sunday. The Halloween campaign turns 60 this year.
No Tricks, Just Treats
Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF got its start with a family in Pennsylvania, in 1950. The year before, shortly after Halloween, Mary Emma Allison and her three children were shopping in downtown Philadelphia when they stumbled upon a UNICEF parade. The colorful march featured kids dressed in costumes representing countries across the globe. A banner caught Allison's eye. It read: "One cent will buy 20 glasses of milk."
The chance encounter gave Allison an idea. Instead of just collecting candy on Halloween, why not do something good and collect money for UNICEF, too? The following Halloween, the Allison family, their neighbors and their church friends went door-to-door with decorated milk cartons, collecting spare change to send to UNICEF. Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF was born.
Kids Helping Kids
Today, the annual Halloween drive has raised over $160 million for UNICEF programs in more than 150 countries and territories. Through the years, the program has received support from U.S. Presidents, TV shows, celebrities and more.
One celebrity who is passionate about UNICEF's mission is Wizards of Waverly Place actress Selena Gomez. This Halloween marks Selena's third year as the Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF national spokesperson. At 18, the Disney Channel star is UNICEF's youngest ambassador. She hopes to use her role to inspire other young people to take action.
"Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF is the original kids-helping-kids campaign," says Selena. "Participating in Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF, or any of UNICEF's campaigns, allows me to use my voice and mobilize my peers to be active members of our global community."
Singing for a Cause
On October 26, Selena used her voice in another way by putting on a charity concert for fans in Hollywood, California. She and her band, The Scene, performed acoustic versions of songs from their two albums, A Year Without Rain and Kiss & Tell. Proceeds from the concert will go to supporting UNICEF programs. Selena urged everyone in the audience to carry UNICEF's signature orange collection box when they go trick-or-treating on Sunday.
"With UNICEF, a little bit goes a long way," Selena told TFK. "Every little bit helps ensure that UNICEF can continue its lifesaving work." To learn more, go to trickortreatforunicef.org.

help TLOU invite system
I started playing a game with a friend a few nights ago and now seem to be stuck as a party leader all by myself, I can play all online modes find match, dlc, no parties etc but now cannot join a party or invite to a party. I am running 1.05.086 and all I can do is view peoples profile. I can recieve party invites although I cannot join the party. Is there anything I can do to fix this???
TY for your time.
Re: help TLOU invite system
Unfortunately no. I have been stuck in this situation for a few days now. I can still play all other modes, I just seem to be stuck in a party of 1. When I click on invites, I can see the recieved ones but cannot join them and when i press triangle on friends names see the pop up that says what game they're playing and view profile but invite to partie is no longer an option. I can upload pics later showing the main factions screen with the bug showing and friends pop up with no invite option. The gameplay is not affected, I can still use mic etc, just a bit annoying I can't team up and play with friends.
Re: help TLOU invite system
played a few matches, still the same, quit due to lag for a bit, started game again to take the photos and it's now working again. Hopefully the bug has left me alone now. Thanks for your time regarding this, fingers crossed it wont happen again.

A friend is pounding a beer during Mexican Quarters when he notices he has become dangerously low. In his act to take a breathe he calls for a "Norwegian Transfer". The man or women closest to the case of beer then grabs a fresh one cracks it and sets it in front of the person calling for it. Keep in mind this notion should be performed as fast as physically possible. Now the Drinker may continue his drinking without having to break.

anyone ever use quilted muslin for back of quilt? i was looking at some at Joanns today.... And was curious :D
I'm sure it could be used. If I was going to try I'd leave out the batting though. Where you thinking you'd quilt over the lines using them as a guide, or quilting something completely different right over? I'd only advise that you be careful how you quilted it.
Have never thought of that. I would probably leave out batting as well. Quilted fabrics are usually more expensive though, regular muslin would work, just don't buy the real thin cheapest stuff.
It could end up costing a lot more to use quilted muslin than it would to use regular batting and plain muslin wouldn't it?
Not saying it couldn't be used but seems that it would be much more expensive to do a quilt that way....looks like it sells for about $12.95 per yard.
Ahh but if you have a 40% or 50% off coupon, it's more like $6 a yard... :wink:
I couldn't find any place online in WV that had quilted muslin to use a 40% or 50% off coupon...that $6.00 a yard sounds like a deal to me.Quote:

I remember looking at some at Walmart for $4???????? I just figured hrmmmmmmm its already quilted. AND pretty colors. They have a pink (little Pink& White squares) one, I thought would look sooooooooo pretty on back of a baby quilt. I tie my quilts so It'll look quilted in back, tied in front :lol: Quilted Muslin is fabric already quilted with batting. Wish I had a picture to show you. ohhhhhhhh wait a sec........ many ppl use the quilted fabric for purses.... i never wanted to deal with the batting. ok true be told the sandwiching part scares me. :oops: so i figured hey, i'll just use the quilted fabric :idea: :idea: :idea:
So really Bev, what you are wanting to do is to use the quilted muslin for your quilt...and put a really "pretty" pieced back on it :lol: And tie it on.
I'm no expert, but I don't see why you couldn't. Its your quilt, do it however you want! :lol:

I got suckered into buying these butterfly nets from the farm's gift shop last Saturday. At the time I was annoyed at myself for giving in to my kids every want and desire, but now I'm glad I did. We've had so much fun and success with these things. We've gone butterfly hunting twice--once at the farm, the other time at Governor's Island. Can you believe we've caught a total of 16 butterflies? Ella made sure to keep track. Owen caught two in one swoop! Skillz.
The kids had the most success trapping a butterfly while it was on the ground. Once caught, we use the catch and release method (like fishing). Bonus: It's such good exercise. My kids wore themselves out running after these crazy creatures. Here's a few supplies if you too would like to try a butterfly adventure this summer. It's the best!
Schylling Creature Catcher Nets When I bought these nets from the gift shop, I asked if they had a life time warrenty. Eh, no. But the nets have endured two outings flawlessly despite boys standing in them, holding soccer balls in them, ect. So far so good. I like that they're solid wood with a metal frame. No plastic parts! That helps.
Insect Creature Peeper. Magnifies the creatures 3x their size! I don't own it, but it's tempting.
Butterfly Pavilion. Owen's teacher gave him this butterfly house on the last day of school. It's a fun way to keep track of all the butterflies we collect during the day. I can't wait to release them all at once. Got to stick to my no pets policy. :)
And a here's few butterfly books I plan on checking out from the library: National Geographic: Butterflies, My, Oh My--A Butterfly!, From Caterpillar to Butterfly, Where Butterflies Grow,Waiting for Wings, (of course) The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
|Catch and Release!
|So agressive. Watch out butterflies.
|Catch and Pose.
|F it.
|Rob, the laziest butterfly catcher ever. This method yielded zero butterflies FYI.

Check to see if ANPAC American National Property & Casualty offers policies in your state. Excellent rates including property, premises liability, products & completed operations liability, etc. Farm Bureau differs from one state to another. Here in Kansas, they had to write a special liability rider at minimum premium of $250 as bees & the prodcuts of the hive were a no-go for liabilty. My regular personal lines agent had to look for a special lines liabilty policy at $500 min. premium/year. ANPAC wrote the farm, home, and liability coverages for less $$ in a single package.
Don't confuse me with facts... my mind is made up.
We are getting coverage at a very reasonable rate through these folks:

Our premium is $265.00 and covers:

Bees on our property
If we expand operations to a remote bee yard, it just gets added on to the policy with no increase in the premium.
Now I can sleep again at night...
If your insurance is being sold to someone else they're tacking on a profit for their greedy selves for doing nothing. The more policies go to a single insurance agent the better price they can likely do.
I have a policy from Farm Burea for just my bee operation. However I feel that the state beekeepers associtations should provide a group insurance policy option to its members. And as an added benefit it could adjust rates or coverage options for master beekeeping certification levels.
Bee all you can Bee!
Allen do they only write insurance in PA?

I'm not sure about that.

We have a Country Squire policy with Farm Bureau with the farm umbrella package, plus a liability policy with Farm Bureau too. I am surprised Farm Bureau sent you to Nation Wide.
When I clicked on Farm Bureau for contact info it sent me to Nationwide.
Nationwide said Farm Bureau is part of their company.
i was able to get product and additional liability with farmer's, not very expensive either.
journaling the growth of a treatment free apiary started in 2010. 20+/- hives
That being said- I found Farm Family to have the best policy- when combined with home owners insurance. less than $300 for 2 million liability. But technically it does not cover stings or sting injuries- covers liability related to honey, etc. and a few other things. Farmers Insurance even recommended them! Same exact thing as that outfit in Texas that advertises in the bee magazine but half the price and a local agent.

Challenges face gardeners on the High Desert
Expert offers tips and tricks for beginners
BEND, Ore. - With warmer temperatures hitting the High Desert, many of you are tending to your garden. Local greenhouses and garden stores have been filled with people hoping to plant the perfect garden.
"We garden with a different set of rules in Central Oregon," said Doug Stott, owner of the Redmond Greenhouse.
Stott has been digging in the dirt and making things grow for decades. He says he says he loves gardening -- and loves people.
"So many young people are bringing their children in, introducing them to gardening, and so it's really a lot of fun," Stott said recently.
A few tips he suggests: Start with really good soil, don't over-water your plants, and don't get in a hurry when planting.
"Don't plant the whole thing all at one time," Stott said. "Just because you have a package of seed doesn't mean you have to sow the whole package."
Stott suggests planting part of the package now, then wait a week and plant the rest.
Elevation also plays a role and slows our already short growing season.
"Even if the seed packet says 60 days to maturity, you need to add a couple weeks onto that date," said Amy Jo Detweiler, associate professor of agriculture at OSU. "It's really going to take 70 to 80 days in Central Oregon."
One of the biggest challenges for gardeners in Central Oregon: growing tomatoes. Experts say not to worry, because it can be done.
"On a summer day, you go out there with a salt shaker -- a little on an heirloom tomato, you can just imagine," Stott said. "I just painted the picture, it's just amazing -- mission accomplished."
But growing that perfect tomato can be challenging. The High Desert sees its fair share of below-freezing nights.
Detweiler says there are several products out there to help. She suggests row cover or plastic pillars that fill with water and surround the plant and use the sun to help plants grow.
"Once it's up in place, the water's going to absorb heat in the day and then emit it back to the plant, keeping it protected from the frost," Detweiler said. "It's kind of like a miniature greenhouse."

The studio is not a five-star hotel room, but everything was better than expected and the owner and mr Ali was extremelys frindly and helpfull. The studio itself is a bit too rustic according to our taste.
We wont hesitate to come back.
Wimdu assisted very nicely in clearing an uncertainty before arrival.
In the heart of Paris. Very nice and cozy apartment. Everything you need for a shot or even longer stay. Lovely and welcoming host Arnaud.
We definitely come back in the future.
Very nice room and very good location. It is very close to metro about few minute walk. Arnaud and his staff Ali are both very nice and helpful. If i go to Paris again, this is the place i must consider.
Amazing Appartement!
Central location: metro is only a 2 minutes walk. Shopping Center, shops, bars and restaurants are around.
Beautiful appartment: view onto an old church, French-style furnished, very comfortable
Hosts: friendly, courteous, anxious
Thank you for a great weekend in Paris!
We enjoyed the stay in that pittoresque apartment very much and recommend
it to anybody who wants to visit Paris and live for a while in the center of the
City from where one can reach all museums, shops, the old alleys by foot.
The apartment is clean and calm, everything is available for daily life.
We were welcomed very friendly by Ali and Renaud. Thank you to both of
Greetings from Angelika and Friedrich
The apartment is well located in central Paris, with everything within easy walking distance. It is decorated in a unique style and offers something different than a stay in a usual hotel would. The little balcony and quirky feel made it a memorable base for exploring the city.
We were pleased overall with the accommodation itself; however if we had known that our age (a mid-twenties - thirties something couple) would cause such apprehension and distrust upon arrival from the owner we would have booked elsewhere as it did make us feel uncomfortable. I'll elaborate below.
Upon booking we received a short message saying that we looked young and asking for our age. Odd question, but we thought little of answering it as we don't appear as old as we are. Everything was normal from this point onwards; we received all necessary information to prepare for our trip and the owner was helpful.
Upon arrival we chose to walk the short 15-30 minutes from the station. We sent our updates via text as requested. However, the owner appeared annoyed that we chose to walk instead of taking one stop on the subway as his reply to our text was critical of this and said that he was going to go home. We were on the street at that point and phoned to stop him from leaving. His initial greeting of us in person was quite cold.
In the apartment, he kept mentioning our age when talking about the house rules and in general seemed really distrustful. For example, he was not keen on us using the kitchenette. It also came to pass that it was not usually him who met guests, but his assistant -- he had however insisted on meeting us, again, because of our age.
In general, it was an enjoyable stay despite the above but I would not recommend to couples in their twenties or early thirties because of our experience.
Lovely apartment near several metro stations. We had no trouble finding the apartment, and Ali was waiting for us with the keys when we arrived.
Small, but very comfy apartment with a practical breakfast area and a small kitchen. Surprisingly big shower with loads of warm water. The toilet/table-solution was a bit impractical, but no worse than that we could make do for a couple of days.
Ali was a bit late to pick up the keys on our day of departure, but it all worked out in the end.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay very much, and would recommend it to friends.

Immersion program is not a high priority
Original post made by Jamie Maltz, Greenmeadow, on Jun 15, 2006
She said the priority survey showed parents wanted progress on core subjects as well as looking at how to broaden world-language offerings. This phrasing implies that languages ranked as a high priority.
The data ( Web Link ) actually shows that the community as a whole ranked foreign language 10th of 12 in "Important Subjects for A Child's Education." The parents ranked foreign language sixth of 12.
The top five priority subjects were: mathematics, sciences, English (writing/composition/essays), English (reading comprehension/literary analysis) and social studies (history/government/economics, etc.).
Averaged across community, parents and students, foreign language ranked seventh, with computer/technology coming in sixth.
They seem to be grasping for a justification for bulldozing forward with the Mandarin-immersion program even though the priority survey doesn't support it and despite significant community objection. The board and superintendent should start explaining why they are aggressively pursuing this boutique enrichment program that will benefit few students instead of focusing time and tax dollars on top priorities.
Since tax dollars foot the lion's share of the bill for our excellent PAUSD education, community priorities should count. Will the community continue to support our district with special assessments and contributions to PIE, even if they think the board is misdirecting time and effort to low-priority programs?

Great! Excellent! So I'll just pop over to the district's community priority survey from March of this year, posted online, and marvel at how highly the community, parents, teachers and students value language over other subjects.... Oh wait a sec... 6th out of 12 in subjects of importance for Parents, and 10th out of 12 in subjects of importance for the Community... I don't understand. So the PAUSD constituency is not yet on board with the value of language over other competing district priorities?
Well, that's OK, whether they know what's good for them or not, at least we've got a plan. So we have a proposal on the table to offer the critical Chinese language to students across the district in a comprehensive, fair and balanced way. Or at least some language... Oh. Well... not exactly.
But that's OK, lets just cram a program through ($ talks you know) that sneaks under the radar of district/community priority setting, and offer a fabulous, designer, enrichment program to just a lucky few? To heck with everyone else! We should just carve out a private little piece of the district for our own personal use, to do with it what we see fit. Yay! I can't understand why people aren't all for it.

If you look at chart 7b, it shows that foreign language instruction AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL level is last out of 11 priorities for us. The priorities listed above are generalized for all grades, this chart is specific to elementary school.
Yet, the Mandarin Immersion program proposal started with the ELEMENTARY school, and was approved by the Board for a feasibility study for implementation in the ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
There is more. Somehow, between the time the Board approved this level of feasibility study ( for elementary school) and PAUSD wrote the US Department of Education and asked for a grant to implement this program, the grant request changed to requesting funds for a k-12 program.
If we get the grant, this is what is called a "pregnant project". In other words, we would have the money given by the Feds to implement a program that is the lowest in our priorities for elementary schools, and which was not approved by the Board for study for the 6-12 years.
I think this is also called an "end-run", and it concerns me greatly.
I am not saying that anyone did this on purpose, because I don't really believe any of the folks involved in this process had any devious intentions. I am just diagramming how an idea which seems so pretty on the surface can potentially grow into a done deal before it becomes obvious that it is completely against what we want in Palo Alto,and is taking time and resources away from our priorities.

With regards to the secondary school Mandarin foreign language program, Chinese 1 has started at Gunn and Paly this fall, two classes at each school. At the high school level, the district is committed to providing appropriate advanced preparation up to AP Chinese in the following years.
The middle school program is also planned to start in two years, to dovetail into the high school program. The middle school plan will require enough enrollment to start, but Chinese 1 would start in Fall 2008.
The high school year Mandarin classes, 9 - 12, were approved last year. The grant application includes materials for high school and middle school.

Congratulations! Think of all the neat stuff you can do now to put your nursery together. What fun!
I lost my sewing room when my son was born. He was very indignant when I turned it back into a sewing room when he graduated from college and moved out. He told me that when he moved back in I would have to get all my junk out of "his" room, I told him he would be sleeping in the guest room if he came back!

These are much to her liking but did she deserve TEB?
I understand SA. The USFS has a right to select her as an invitee. but
What did she do to deserve TEB while others could only get 1 GP?
These are much to her liking but did she deserve TEB?
I understand SA. The USFS has a right to select her as an invitee. but
What did she do to deserve TEB while others could only get 1 GP?
Exactly my thoughts, JOESITZ. I really do hope she can compete cause she's been doing shows the past years. Doing shows and competing are 2 different things. So, she's listed and with all the other COMEBACKS, I sure hate to hear about backing outs with whatever reasons they give. With the current skaters, I'll just have to see how they will survive the competition.
well ... Shen and Zhao got 2 assignments too and nobody gets angry about that ... is there any difference?
I don't see how Sasha would be ready to compete at TEB after being away from competition for 3.5 years, with only 4.5 months of training. Trying to do so is a recipe for injury.
Well, Sasha has not been sitting on her couch, eating potato chips and drinking beer for the last 3 1/2 years. Still, I don't see how ISU rules allow her to get 2 assignments. I guess those guys decide what their rules say.
Me, too. I just don't how she did it and what their deal was. Something is not right and I doubt if they can pull whatever gimmick they have because the current competitions are not that easy to deal with. And if she comes out incapable and still gets into the podium with all the strong skaters, everybody will be fuming mad. Actually, it was just fine, (with them exiting to do shows instead of competing), where the current skaters have raised the level of competitions with all the difficult judging/scoring and with no dramas/excuses. The current skaters compete even with their injuries/sickness and all of a sudden a priviledge is granted to someone who went on vacation from competing with the pretense of illness/injury but actually did shows...?!#?!#
I do not have an objection to Sasha getting 2 GPs, but when I mentioned it in early part of the discussion, and with TEB being her choice - not the draw, I was clobbered with it was against the rules. Was it? because I had another argument that since she had the silver Oly medal from 2006, she would automatically go to 2010 Olys once she was done with the US Nats win or lose. Clobbered again. I'be been around long enough to have noticed that rules can be broken in life.
Anyway she competes against;
YuNa, Mao, Carolina and Caroline, Yukari and Kiiri ]
It is the ONE GP that tells it all. If she places here, Sasha is competitive; If she wins here, she should go to the Olys. We'll see.
I respect all the opinions but really - was there ever a doubt that the only returning Lady medalist from last Olympics would get two GP invitations?
I am sure Plushy could have also had two if he and the Russian federation wanted it. The GP series is wonderful and it does it's job well, which is to eliminate any competition from other possible skating shows. It keeps the best "amateurs" from turning pro too quickly and generally makes money for ISU.
But it is not Worlds or Olympics. It was created for a purpose and it serves that purpose well.
Your response is well appreciated, JANETFAN. Anyway, it's just my opinion and don't mean to cause a bad reaction.
I smiled with the way you wrote Sasha's name with $
Personally, I liked Sasha the first time around, and I would love to see her again. 2 GPs and everything. And I have to admit that I don't quite understand some of the reactions, so I must ask:
Is this because of the fluidity of the ISU rules?
Is it because she's, literally, taking the place of other US lady? and if so then which one?
I mean, if she's not ompetative, no harm done (right?), and if she is competative it'll be great for USFSA, ISU, the fans, and future US lady skaters.
Wouldn't actually boost FS in the US?
Bottom line, there is (naturally ) a committee. The ISU Figure Skating Event Coordination Group. Here is its membership as of last year (it might have changed this year).
Mr. David Dore, ISU Vice-President of Figure Skating & Coordinator ISU Figure Skating Event Coordination Group
Mr. Peter Krick, ISU Chair Sports Directorate
Ms. Felicitas Babusikova, ISU Sports Director Figure Skating
Ms. Patricia Mayor, ISU Sports Coordinator Figure Skating
Mr. Mario Meinel, ISU Event Coordinator
Ms. Rita Zonnekeyn, Member S&PTC
Ms. Halina Gordon-Poltorak, Member IDTC
This committee makes the final decision about who skates and who doesn't, and basically they can do whatever they want, including adding extra skaters to the mix who do not seem to be eligible by the ordinary rules.
One thing they are responsible for, by the way, is giving the OK to the TBA slots and to replacements for skaters who withdraw. The guideline is that they want these slots filled within 14 days of the event. If it gets down to 7 days, then the committee will "consider" just leaving that spot vacant because of possible visa problems and the expense of flying somewhere at the last minute.

April 2, 2012
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - The annual University of Tennessee spring football game, the DISH Orange and White Game, will be played at Neyland Stadium on Sat., April 21 and will feature free admission for all fans as part of the Fan Appreciation Day initiative from UT Athletics. Kickoff is slated for 2:30 p.m.
In addition to free admission to the game, Fan Appreciation Day will feature an autograph signing with head coach Derek Dooley, assistant coaches and Vol players. The signing, held in recent years at Haslam Field, will be held on the field at Neyland Stadium from 12:15-1:15 p.m.
For those attending the autograph signing, Gate 7 will open at Noon. Fans attending the game but not wishing to attend Fan Day can enter the stadium beginning at 1 p.m., during which time the first 2,500 fans entering through Gate 10 will also receive a 5x7 Tennessee Football mini-poster in an acrylic holder. Parking will also be free for fans attending the game
"A significant part of what makes Tennessee such a special place is the outstanding support of our passionate and loyal fans," said Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Dave Hart. "We wanted to express our appreciation to our fan base in a tangible and visible manner. One element of that effort is to offer free admission to the 2012 DISH Orange and White Game. We are excited about our football team and the upcoming 2012 season, and we are looking forward to our spring game in Neyland Stadium on April 21."
In addition to the presentation of the football spring practice awards by Dooley to selected players, halftime will include a flag football game between two teams of Tennessee football lettermen, with the rosters to be determined.

Dann-Messier delivered an imperative to the audience of educators, policy makers, and industry representatives to align education and skills to workforce needs, emphasizing that implementation of career pathways was integral to the process.
Throughout the conference Dann-Messier and Sharon Miller, director of OVAE's Division of Academic and Technical Education, conducted three listening sessions, titled CTE Community Conversations, where they solicited input from participants to inform OVAE in the development of reauthorization goals for the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act.
Dann-Messier and Miller also highlighted the recently awarded Promoting Rigorous Career and Technical Education Programs of Study (RPOS) grants by leading a panel of the six grant recipients. States shared their applications and expectations for implementation of their projects. The states and clusters represented were: Arizona – education/training cluster; Kansas – science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) cluster; Maryland – transportation, distribution, and logistics cluster; Montana – architecture/construction cluster; Utah – health science cluster; and Wisconsin – manufacturing cluster.
The work of the grantees will be disseminated nationally.
