Paul did the planning and we went to a place on the waterfront for dinner, and then to a few bars around the city. it ended up being a fun night with tons of dancing. perfect in my eyes.
since then, I've gone to a few beaches with my host family, and made a trip by myself to one of the big malls closer to downtown. it's nice to feel apart of something here.
more than anything, I'm getting more and more excited for Ian and Mom to get here. it's less than 2 weeks now.. and the way time has been going by since I got into Papakura, it will probably be no time at all before they arrive!!
Sarah, my 'host mom', has told me that I'm free to take any little weekend trips that I like. so once the new year gets here, I think the travel bug will be itching again and I'll look into going south (Bay of Islands), or maybe flying to Australia or somewhere cheaper. it's great feeling that, even though we're out in what seems like the middle of nowhere, I'm able to take time for myself and get out and have some adventures. .. I'm also thinking it wouldn't be right if I didn't bungee jump before I leave this place. they invented it! so I may talk myself into that. we'll see...
for now, lots of pictures from the time spent with the kiddos, and some from my bday.
love from tomorrow!!

Anyone still holding off a netbook purchase waiting for the Goldilocks system, to coin a phrase, to come along might want to hold off a little longer. We all knew Intel is going to update its Atom line-up at some point, but thanks to DigiTimes' digging at notebook manufacturers, we know that when is a slightly more specific sometime in Q2 or Q3 this year.
Expectedly the Atom N280, as the current N270s successor is to be called, brings improvements with it, both to the CPU itself and, arguably more importantly, the platform in which it resides. Most obvious among the changes is the move from a 533MHz to a 667MHz front-side bus and, as a result, a slight change from a 1.6GHZ to a 1.66GHz clock speed.
Of more significance is the move from the currently used 945GSE chipset to one called the GN40. Intel doesn't seem to be sharing information about this new chipset yet and DigiTimes apparently haven't
Pricing is a bit increased for the N280 at $60-65 (~£41-45) versus $46 (~£32) for the N270. Per CPU, in 1,000 unit trays as ever, of course. If the GN40 chipset can bring the much needed improvements over its archaic predecessor, though, that premium will almost certainly be worthwhile.
Acer, Asus and Gigabyte are apparently signed up to dish out N280 and GN40-fitted netbooks already, so it's just a matter of time, now.

My First Best47 164
One day on a lomo-adventure Saturday, I decided that I would try a roll of Fuji Velvia, slide film. I was worried that I would screw it up and put the roll to waste because I didn't really know what I was doing.
It was a cloudy day, but I figured that the ISO was 100, so I'd be fine. The three of us (nigelk, kayswirl, and I) drove to a rather secluded area by the water and hopped out of the car. We clambered over the bushes and through the itchy grass down to the rocks, sand, and water.
And then, we began shooting. I got a few shots into the roll before I began to let loose, and just shoot. So I put my hand up against the sky and clicked. Then I looked down to the ground and the rocks, click. Whirrrrrr, next photo.
After we finished our film, we drove off. When I went down to the lab to drop off my film, I wrote on the envelope "C-41 process please" I was so anxious to see the results of my first roll of cross processed slide film! Please let it be good, please, please!
And when I finally got my film back, I was blown away. The vivid colors hit me in the face as I flipped through the photos one by one. And then I saw it, the double of the sky, the hand, and the stones. It was perfect, just as I pictured it in my head.
Here's the complete roll:

Some motherboard advice for a beginner
Hey guys,
looking for some easy simple help here, would be much appreciated.
In the process of a new build, and my first , and am fairly stuck on the motherboard side of things. I know i'm looking for an ATX sized board, but not a lot else,
i know i need a LGA1155 socket for my i5 3570k CPU and the best option is Z77. My question here is what are the differences between Z77 and P67 etc? and what does that even refer to?!
My second question is to suggestions and ideas for a good motherboard at around £100, looking to run 8Gb DDR3 at 1600MHz with some overclocking but no water cooling? i've had little look but don't really understand it all .
I've had a little look at the z77 extreme 4 which appears to have good reviews. Is this mobo overkill or would you guys recommend it?
Any suggestions, recommendations or pointers would be fantastic,

H77 is otherwise identical to Z77, but it doesn't support overclocking. B75 has somewhat less features.

Ahh i see, thanks for that enlightenment. should have found that on the web really...
OK so Z77 is my best bet, are ASrock motherboards something to be considered?

Z77 is also able to run Sandybridge CPUs. Ivybridge brings PCIe3.0 to the table, which basically offers more bandwidth and uses it more efficiently. If you're into overclocking, Ivybridge CPUs are known to run a little warmer than Sandybridge, so ensure you budget for a good cooling system.
MSI's boards are also good, too. I've had a few over the years and my current Z77-based board is solid as a rock. The UEFI BIOS is nice, too.

Nice one thanks for the.help.
Whilst on the subject what are people's views on the artic cooling I30? I've read reviews but have heard conflicting opinions

It's a pretty decent cooler, sits at the high end of the charts for air coolers if this is anything to go by ( not the same CPU but you get the idea- look at the 1155 chart ):
It's certainly worth looking at the mobo reviews to get an idea of performance and features, plus layout ( some boards have nicer features such as extra usb sockets, usb3.0 headers & sockets, edge mounted sata sockets and such ). Depends really on whether you are planning on just throwing the parts together in a box never to see the light of day in which case aesthetics and impeccable cable routing won't matter so much, or whether you plan to do a project log and want to show off your uber-clean & well laid out case.
Plenty of good boards for £100, and everyone has their favourites, I'd search Scan.co.uk and just select Z77 boards, compare features and make a choice- if you aren't planning on bench marking your set then most boards will overclock well enough for a bit of a performance boost. Plus, if you make one more post here you can sign up for free shipping when you spend more than £20 on scans website

20th post, here goes! :-D
Great advice thanks :-) looks like the i30 is all most the best CPU air cooler!
So it would appear they're all generally good just the little bits to decide between.
Thanks very much been great help

Observers said the influx of rural folk into the city for an enter- tainment and prize-crammed farm day may represent one of larg- est such day-long meetings in the city's history. The Winona High School chapter of the Future Homemakers of Am- erica still was serving free turkey luncheons at 1 p.m. Separate after- noon programs for men and women were scheduled to be launched at and the program was to end at 3 p.m. in a grand finale a joint meeting for both men and women in the main auditorium of the Wigwam. Talk on Drying Hay Leading off the day's program at a.m. was Kenneth W. Wes- terberg, consulting agricultural engineer and president of Farm Engineering Sales, Inc., speaking on "Hay Drying." Westerberg was introduced by Glenn M. Anderson, vocational agriculture instructor at clothing they need to protect them from the icy Minnesota winter. In past years, many Winona business firms have made contri- butions to the Goodfellows fund. In many of them their employes as well have taken up voluntary col- lections. These have been import- ant sources of Goodfellows money. If the business firms and their employes plan to contri- bute again this year, now would be in ideal time, according to Goodfellows workers. This morning the first group of needy school children was taken to the Goodfellows shopping head- quarters where their needs were determined. Then they were taken to the stores and fitted individually with the warm clothing they need. Not enough money has been cent cut in individual income taxes and elimination of the excess prof- its tax on corporations will be pro- posed as soon as the new Congress convenes next month, Rep.

We must move ahead into the world of machinery." He warned, "The day of little hay cocks in the field' is gone, and today we must cure our hay before j His proposal calls for a reduction of slightly more than 5 per cent in individual income taxes next year and a similar reduction in 1954, for a total cut of about 11 per cent. The 1951 tax bill raised individual I rates by 10 to 11 per cent. The in- j WASHINGTON U.S.-Brifish Trade Treaty Plan Examined Australian Minister Suggests Plan at Commonwealth Rally By ARTHUR GAVSHON LONDON Leaders of the British family of nations ex- amined an Australian proposal to- day for a unique United States- Commonwealth treaty of trade and friendship aimed at making it easier for the rich dollar and the poor pound to live together. Australian Prime Minister Rob- ert G. Menzies was reliably re- ported to have suggested the treaty at yesterday's session of the nine nation Commonwealth Premiers Conference. Informed sources said the proposal would cover: 1. Commonwealth pledges to ease controls on the movement of money, especially those ham- pering U. S. investors in the Brit- ish nations from taking back to America in dollars their capital and earnings. Arrangements Speeded Up 2. Speeding up arrangements to eliminate double taxation which in some Commonwealth countries leaves dollar investors liable to, pay taxes both to that nation and to their own governments. 3. Gradual extension of the con- vertibility of the pound so that eventually a person with pounds could swap them freely for any other foreign currency. 4. Cast-iron arrangements for re- moving or scaling down the Com- monwealth system of imperial preferences and United States tar- iff quotas. Imperial preference is a system of "buying British" which has grown up as a means of protecting Commonwealth goods and industries. Most of the Commonwealth, group are known to favor these general principles. Menzies' idea to embody them all in a trade and friendship treaty apparently is After details are threshed out in the next few days, the Common- wealth statesmen likely will give Britain's Prime Minister Churchill and his chancellor of the exchequ- er R. A. Butler, a mandate to go to Washington to talk the whole thing over with President-elect Ei- senhower soon after he is installed next month. In addition to considering this proposal, today's session of the conference had to follow up yes- terday's discussion on the develop- ment nf the Commonwealth's own resources.

PEACOCK WASHINGTON UP) The uneasy post-convention truce between Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Sen. Robert A. Taft blew up today over the Republican selection' of Martin Durkin, a Dem- ocrat and union official, to be his Secretary of Labor, Taft's blast at what he termed this "incredible" appointment swept away in one moment the outward show of harmony and co- operation built up in the months since Eisenhower defeated Taft for the Republican presidential nom- ination. Sen. Taft, who campaigned for Eisenhower after losing the GOP nomination to him, said in a pre- pared statement: "The appointment of Mr. Durkin is an incredible appointment. This is no reflection on the character or ability of Mr. Durkin. I had number of talks with Mr, (Robert) Brownell who has been the key man in Cabinet appointments, and made several recommendations of qual- ified men. 'Partisan Democrat1 "It was never even suggested that a man would be appointed who has always been a partisan Truman Democrat, who fought Gen. Eisenhower's election, and advocated the repeal of the Taft- Hartley law. "It is an affront to millions of union members and officers who had the courage to defy the edict of officials like Mr. Durkin that they vote for Stevenson.

An Air Force C-47, with 13 men aboard, apparently crashed during the night at 'the level in the San Bernardino mountains, the sheriffs office reported today. Deputy Sheriff Loring Poleman of Victorville said he saw a big fire-in the mountains north of here and west of Big Bear Valley about 4 a.m., which finally died out. Checking again at daybreak, he could still see smoke from the spot, well above the snowline, which was about 4500 feet high. Ground parties from George Air Base at Victorville, March Air Base, and sheriff's stations here and at Victorville headed into the area in mid morning. Clouds which still covered the area earlier were clearing, and flights were sent out from March Air Base to attempt to locate the wreckage.

Vandenberg also announced the designation .of Walter Williams of Seattle as under secretary of com- merce. He was chairman of the national "Citizens for Eisenhow- er." CIO leaders took the selection of a labor man as an indication that the Eisenhower administra- tion wants to get along with or- ganized labor. The naming of Durkin was hailed by George Meaay, recently elected president of the AFL, who called Durkin an "outstanding trade unionist." The complete cabinet lineup now stands this way: E.

I just got a new (Dell Inspiron 1520) laptop with Vista basic. On Windows Explorer the folder just below ŌĆ£DesktopŌĆ? has my name (Keith) and it looks like what used to be called the old ŌĆ£My DocumentsŌĆ? folder. IŌĆÖve decided to try to use this folder (never liked it in XP), but first I want to be able to delete every single blue subfolder in there (Contacts, Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, etc.)
When I try to delete the folders I donŌĆÖt get an error message saying, ŌĆ£You donŌĆÖt have permission.ŌĆ? Instead the folders actually delete, until I reboot, and then theyŌĆÖre all back again. I found these instructions for taking ownership of the folders: ŌĆ£Right Click the Folder - Choose Properties. Go to the Security Tab- Click Advanced - Go to Owner Tab - Click Edit - Under Change Owner to select Administrator and then tick the box to do all subcontainers and objects and click Apply. This will give you ownership. Now you need to give yourself full-control.ŌĆ?
I did all that and made the Administrator the Owner. Fine. Then to get full control I followed these instructions: ŌĆ£Right Click the Folder - Choose Properties. Go to the Security Tab-Click Edit button - Click Administrators and tick Full Control in the boxes and click Apply.ŌĆ?
Actually, Full Control was the default and Apply was grayed out, but I decided it was now all configured correctly. So I deleted the folders again. After a reboot they were all back again. Can anybody tell me how to get rid of all of the subfolders in this folder?
Thanks in advance.

Blessed Trinity Boys Win For A Good Cause
Blessed Trinity's 4th grade CYO boys' basketball team traveled to Brooklyn on January 18th, to participate in the "Swish for Kids" tournament held at St. Ephrem's School gym. The tournament is an annual fundraiser for pediatric cancer research.
The team has had a very difficult season, being as yet a young and inexperienced group. Coach Ed Coyne told the team that they would win this tournament, and had his team prepared, but with the way the season was going, many had their doubts.
The Breezy Point boys took the floor against the home team, St. Ephrem's, at noon to kick off the tournament. Coach Coyne addressed the team before the game, encouraging them to focus on everything they have learned to date, hustle, and leave it all out on the floor.
Blessed Trinity started off fast, exploding for eight unanswered points in the first two minutes of the game, and never looked back.
Lakym Lowman, age seven, playing point guard was all over the court, stealing and stripping balls which led to quick baskets.
Lakym ended with a season-high six points. Eddie Coyne hit his first three shots, which would set the tone for the team. Patrick Kelly was tasked to defend St. Ephrem's best player, and Patrick came through, shutting down his opposition. Owen Singleton, relieving Lakym Lowman, brought his tenacious defense to the court.
The St. Ephrem's guards had great difficulty penetrating the stingy defense set up by Blessed Trinity. James Wageman, playing center, had his best game of the year, scoring six points, and grabbing many rebounds. Aidan McCormack started at forward and added much to the offense, setting a number of picks and screens that freed his teammates for uncontested shots. Taiwan Bilbo, also seven, played guard, and added speed and determination to both the defense and offense.
The team played their finest all-around game of the year. Eddie Coyne was spectacular, scoring a season-high 20 points, bringing down numerous rebounds, blocking shots and dishing out five assists.
Blessed Trinity won the game, and more importantly, contributed to a good cause. The boys each received a medal for their efforts, and a tournament shirt. The smiles on their faces after the game showed that their hard work this difficult season finally paid off. They and their families should all be proud of their efforts. Way to go, boys!

Midwestern Gas Prices Up
June 9, 2000
Filed under Trailer News
The U.S. Energy Information Administration reports that prices of gasoline have risen an
average of 2.5 cents to a record $1.56 per gallon. California prices remained steady at an
average of $1.61. Reformulated gasoline was introduced into about one-third of the nation
on June 1. The EIA also stated that reformulated gas prices in some Midwest areas averaged
$1.84 and had climbed above $2.00 per gallon in some locations. Price increases are
attributed to the introduction of cleaner-burning reformulated gasoline, which has resulted
in spot shortages.

Position: OG
Class: Freshman
Size: 6-foot-5, 370 pounds
Age: 19
High School: St. John Bosco
Scouting Report: Quite simply, the freshman is massive. He is a traditional road grater in the run game who is expected to contribute immediately.
Prep Career: Mama was a highly touted Southern California prospect racking up numerous accolades including a spot on the ESPN 300 list and the 2013 USA Today All-USA First Team, plus he was named the Los Angeles Times All-Area Lineman of the Year. In high school, he absolutely dominated opponents on both sides of the ball leading St. John Bosco to victory at both the 2013 CIF Pac-5 Division championship and the CIF State championship Open Division bowl.
Fall Camp: After two weeks of camp, the big offensive lineman has dropped 20 pounds, which he credits to the outstanding strength and conditioning coaches and nutritionists who have worked with him all summer to get him in proper condition to work in the offensive line rotation. With Sarkisian's fast-paced offense, the Trojans expect a lot of lineman to rotate in to keep their legs fresh and with the potential absence of OG Khaliel Rodgers, Mama has filled in adequately at the right guard position as he continues to improve and adjust to the pace of college football.
Sark on Mama: "He's a really mature guy. He's a big human being in there at right guard and he's hard to run around. He does remind me of Deuce Lutui when Deuce played for us, real mild-mannered, fun-loving guy off the field, but he gets between the lines and he is physical and tough and plays the game the right way."

" Author: A. L. Kennedy / Genre: Fiction / Publisher: Vintage "
* Prices may differ from that shown
Day - A L Kennedy
Day is the fifth novel from Scottish writer AL Kennedy and the winner of the prestigious Costa Book of the Year Award (previously the Whitbread) in 2007.
It is the story of Alfred Day, a Royal Air Force veteran of the Second World War trying to come to terms with himself as he relives some of his darkest memories while working as an extra on a prisoner of war film some years after the end of the war.
Born in Staffordshire, Alfred has not had a happy life. Son to a violent fishmonger his early life is dominated by his fear of a drunken father's rages. Short and slightly built he lacks confidence both in himself and in social situations and only when war comes does he find the means to escape. Only in war does he find any personal definition. As the tail gunner in a Lancaster bomber the crew become his family, the skipper a surrogate father - someone to please, someone to make proud and someone to provide that filial affection that was missing before. In the war he also finds love, in the form of Joyce. A married woman whose husband has been lost in the Far East and presumed dead Joyce provides a chance of romance that Day never thought he'd find.
The book opens in 1949 on the film set; Alfred is wandering around the countryside surrounding the fake camp in the company of Vasyl, an unpleasant Ukrainian who becomes a recurring character in the book. At this point we know little of Alfred but we are immediately presented with a disturbing scene as they, dressed as allied prisoners, come across a local German woman and her daughter. Clearly shocked and afraid to see them Alfred seeks to calm and reassure the woman but Vasyl, drawing a stolen Luger, threatens them. It is here we see the first of many conundrums surrounding Alfred. In Alfred's own words Vasyl is a tricky customer with a dark reputation as a 'knife-man' yet despite being armed Alfred tackles him, beating him to the ground and taking the gun allowing the woman to escape. For someone so lacking in physical confidence this immediately strikes a discordant note and raises questions about the unseen depths of this man's character. As Vasyl keeps reappearing he antagonises Alfred further and acts as a catalyst to make him revisit those parts of his past that have been so carefully locked away. In another novel Vasyl could be dismissed as a fantasy figure, existing only as a nemesis in Alfred's mind but this isn't that kind of novel.
As we follow Alfred around the film set, variously taking part in crowd scenes or parades, we see that he is using this experience to exorcise his own demons, to provide some definition to his life, a life that has been drifting meaninglessly since the war ended. Like many men of his generation, the war provided the focal point of their lives and every other part of their lives can only be understood when viewed in relation to their experiences of that war. Only after several chapters are we given more than a glimpse of Alfred's earlier life as the book's structure begins to take shape. As a multi-threaded history the details are slowly fed to us by the author and lead inexorably to the point where we now find him.
We know that he was a gunner in the Air Force but that he ended the war in a POW camp. We know that he'd been in love with a woman called Joyce but hadn't seen her for several years and it's clear he believes she has no intention of seeing him again. We know these things because Alfred tells us them early on, but we don't know how he got to those points. Alfred knows, but can't bear to face up to them so we have to bear patient witness as he recounts his life, remembering things he'd locked away for too many years, in the hope that he can close out a part of his life that is holding him back and allow him to move forwards.
The book follows two main threads; alongside his time on the film set we also follow his service in the RAF. From his initial recruitment by the skipper, the assembly of the crew to the desperate missions they undertake, slowly ticking them off until they can reach the magic 30 ops after which they can retire from active service. Interspersed between these two threads we see snippets of his post war life, working in a book shop with the shops owner, Ivor. The two share an empty life, trading well worn arguments and insults in their always empty shop.
For Alfred the war is the best of times and the worst of times. Good at his job he is an integral part of the crew and a favourite of the skipper, for the first time in his life he has a sense of belonging and of being respected and appreciated. With this surrogate family he finds fulfilment and a degree of happiness but it is also a terrible time of fear and loneliness. Beyond the crew is only isolation, even within the squadron. As a new crew they are ignored or ridiculed by other more experienced crews but as their tally of completed missions grow and they become the senior fliers they in turn ignore the new crews and airmen. Everyone has the smell of death on them and you don't want that bad luck infecting you.
On a weekend's leave in London Alfred meets Joyce during an air raid. Despite his painfully shy stammerings she perseveres and an unlikely friendship and romance develops. Like many woman at the time, Joyce's life is on hold. Although married her husband has long been lost in the Far East and could be presumed dead, but she can't do this. Society dictates that she must wait and remain the devout wife so their blossoming relationship is stilted and always in the shadow of the missing husband. More confident and assertive than Alfred Joyce still craves the romance as much as him and for both it provides a glimmer of hope in otherwise desperate times.
In a book that tells a fairly sad story the theme of hope is perhaps the biggest sinner. For most of his life Alfred's biggest enemy has been hope. As a child he hoped to escape his father's violence but as another evening ends with him returning home in a drunken rage he resents that glimmer he'd held onto. As his crew complete twenty five missions, then twenty six and twenty seven the hope that they will see out the thirty brings fear to them in case it engenders complacency or brings bad luck and as a prisoner he consciously suppresses any hope that he may survive. Even on the film set, when he is looking for direction for his stagnating life he shies away from hope until the very end.
Although occasionally ponderous and slow moving, Day is a very well written book. By following the multi threaded style Kennedy maintains interest by drip feeding the reader information that takes us back to the point where the book began and then beyond to a satisfying conclusion. Kennedy matches the style of her narrative to the situations that Alfred finds himself in, whether it's the awkwardness of his times with Joyce, the adrenalin of his bombing missions or his confrontations with the provocative Vasyl we find ourselves perfectly in tune with his emotions and state of mind. She also has a wonderful grasp of dialogue, not least when in times of stress or distraction Alfred slips into his native Staffordshire dialect.
Reminiscent of William Trevor this is an engaging read but you remain an observer of the central character. Held at a distance there is a certain degree of detachment in the story telling. At 270 pages it isn't long but it is satisfying. I am not usually swayed by book awards but I feel the Costa judging panel have made a good choice with this book. I suspect this is a book that would benefit from being read again and I fully intend to do so.
Alfred Day wanted his war. In its turmoil he found his proper purpose as the tail-gunner in a Lancaster bomber; he found the wild, dark fellowship of his crew, and - most extraordinary of all - he found Joyce, a woman to love. But that's all gone now - the war took it away. Maybe it took him, too. Now in 1949, employed as an extra in a war film that echoes his real experience, Day begins to recall what he would rather forget...

The Monterey City Council on Tuesday is expected to register its displeasure with the latest rules proposed for storm water runoff by the state water board.
The city is part of the Statewide Stormwater Coalition, a year-old group of 90 local governments that speaks on the environmental issue that often pits cities and counties against the state.
The council will be asked to sign a coalition letter protesting proposed storm water rules to be considered by the state Water Resources Control Board at its October meeting.
A council report says the proposed storm water rules contain "extensive new regulations above and beyond current regulations implemented by the city for compliance with federal and state water quality law."
The coalition, the report says, is working with the Legislature on bills to "bring greater transparency and cost considerations" to water board storm water proposals.
Monterey's endorsement of the coalition campaign would put more pressure on the water board to strike "a balanced approach to appropriately managing the economy, preservation of resources and preservation of local services," the report says.
The proposed rules — called the Second Draft Phase II storm water permit — were released in March and apply to jurisdictions below 100,000 in population. The council report says they total 160 pages with 16 compliance elements compared with current rules that are 33 pages long with six compliance elements.
A state water board "fact sheet" says the new rules are aimed at reducing pollution and reducing costs "by folding in compliance efforts into existing activities."
The federal government first established rules for small municipal storm-water discharges in 1999. But state water officials have found that state rules subsequently adopted in 2003 resulted in "inconsistencies and sometimes undesirable water quality outcomes." If you go

EPISD Board of Managers wants parents to call them directly
EL PASO, Texas - The new Board of Managers at the El Paso Independent School District is getting right to work. But part of its job will be to answer parent and teacher concerns, a task that has yet to be addressed.
Elected trustees are assigned to the schools in their district, that way parents know who to call with their concerns. But there is no such designation for the new board of managers.
On EPISD's website, there's a list of the new board of managers. This list will eventually have their contact info posted, but who parents should call has yet to be determined.
"None of us are going to have closed doors," said the managers' spokesman, Dee Margo.
Contacting board members is key, according to former trustee and District 1 candidate Rocio Benedicto, who said she spent 200 hours a month volunteering as a trustee, taking 10-15 calls a week.
Former board President Isela Castanon-Williams said she received anywhere from 15-25 calls, not including emails. She says it's a full-time job and people have gotten used to having a hands-on, accessible board of trustees.
Margo was asked if the managers were ready for this kind of responsibility and he said absolutely -- call them directly.
"We're all El Pasoans," Margo said. "Several of us, if not all of us have children that go to EPISD or graduated from EPISD. I would say we have a pretty strong vested interest in the outcome."
But some school board candidates are expecting a liaison-like role between their voters and the board if they win this Saturday's election.
"I would look forward to working with them," said Omar Villa, running for District 1.
"Provide them with information about the Northeast and hope they listen," said James Lamonica, running for District 5.
When asked if he's open to the help of elected trustees, Margo said no, that he doesn't want filtered information. He recommends concerned parents contact the school's chain of commands and after that process has been exhausted, call the manager of your choice.
Texas Education Commissioner Michael Williams also said he will be in communication with El Paso parents, but didn't say how. For now, EPISD said it will post each manager's contact information later in the week.
For more information on all the school board candidates running for office, visit KVIA's Election Center.

The California Water Commission Wednesday put off a decision until November that could allow Water Resources to sue for access. Property owners who have not voluntarily agreed to provide access for water and soil testing are now being served legal papers. Those papers inform them of the department's plan to use eminent domain to gain that access.
150 landowners recently won a court battle against Water Resources. Now, the department is trying to use eminent domain to subvert the court order. The tests are needed before the state can continue with a peripheral canal.
18 farmers and ranchers are refusing to help the state conduct research that might lead to the family farm being turned into a canal or a flood plain.
The department says their data collection is 90% complete except for studies that might show them where the wetlands…or flood plain…would go.

Sir Paul and Lady Deborah Holmes' Hawkes Bay residence has been turned into a luxury getaway estate.
Run by the late broadcaster's wife, Mana Lodge and its 18ha of land can now be rented by people who want luxury accommodation for up to 10 adults, a holiday home or a function venue.
"Mana Lodge is a handsome, elegant country home that offers a fusion of contemporary and farmhouse flavours while still retaining a cosy sense of welcoming with the comforts of a private home," says the lodge's website, manalodge.co.nz.
It shows bookings are available from mid-August, and priced at $1380 a night.
The lodge was built in 1948 and an extensive programme of planting native and significant trees followed, the website says. The grounds were landscaped into formal tiered terraces and redesigned to include one of the largest private swimming pools in the country.
Sir Paul, who grew up in Hawkes Bay, bought Mana Lodge in 2000 after "falling in love with the property".
He and Lady Deborah further developed the property and planted an olive grove of 3000 trees which produce the Mana Lodge signature olive oils.
The property now boasts six bedrooms, a study, conservatory, two lounges and catering is available on request.
Shortly before his death in February Sir Paul described Mana Lodge as his "treasure".
Lady Deborah did not return the Herald's calls last night.
Sir Paul was treated for cancer and had heart surgery in 1999 and again in 2012 before retiring.
In the New Year's Honours Sir Paul was appointed a Knight Companion of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to broadcasting and the community.
His investiture ceremony was held at the estate.
His funeral was held at the Holy Trinity Cathedral in Auckland.

How Many Farms Are Left in the U.S. and Iowa?
By Mark A. Edelman
The 1997 Census of Agriculture is now published-- and out-of-date. I say that because a lot has happened during the last two years since the Ag Census was taken. But it does provide a snapshot of interesting information in light of the media and political frenzy regarding the "financial hemorrhaging" of the nation's farms.
One factoid generated by Census data is that all farms are not necessarily commercial farms, depending on the definition. If true, then it also holds that all farmers are not necessarily in the same boat regarding "financial hemorrhaging." Yet, we talk about farmers as if they were all the same.
How many farms? It depends on the definition. According to the Census, there are now 1.9 million farms in the U.S., but that doesn't tell the whole story because the Census Bureau still defines a farm as any entity that sells more than $1,000 of agricultural products. A lot of 4-H projects can be classified as farms because they annually generate more than $1,000 in sales.
How many part-time and hobby farms are counted? A few years back some analysts started separating farms into size groups according to value of gross agricultural sales. Those with gross sales above $50,000 were considered commercial and those that were below $50,000 were considered part-time or "hobby" farms. Why? Nearly all of the farms with gross sales below $50,000 must depend on off farm sources of income for a majority of their family income.
Using the $50,000 definition of a commercial farm, 73.6 percent or 1.407 million of the nation's 1.9 million total number of farms are part-time or hobby farms--not commercial farms. These farms generated only 6.8 percent of the agricultural products sold. So only 504,000 farms nationally are large enough to be considered full-time commercial farms according to the $50,000 in sales definition of a commercial farm.
How many farms in Iowa? The 1997 Census of Agriculture counted 90,792 farms with more than $1,000 in agricultural sales. However, 50.2 percent of these or 45,600 farms of the total are part-time or hobby farms using the $50,000 definition in gross agricultural sales for consideration as a commercial farm. The part-time farm group generated 5.5 percent of Iowa's agricultural sales.
So, in Iowa, there were 45,200 commercial farms according to the in 1997 Census of Agriculture. This means the average Iowa county now has less than 500 full-time commercial farms selling more than $50,000 in agricultural products per year.
How many mega-farms are there? Because of the recent concerns over food industry integration and consolidation of farms, many analysts break the commercial farms down further into mega-farms, mid-size farms and smaller farms. The mega-farms generate more than $500 thousand in agricultural sales per year. There are 68,794 mega-farms in the U.S. using this definition. These mega-farms represent only 3.6 percent of the total number of U.S. farms but account for 56.6 percent of agricultural sales. The mid-size commercial farms with $250,000 to $500,000 in sales represent 87,700 farms or 4.6 percent of the total farms but generate only 15.5 percent of the national sales. The smaller commercial farms with $50,000 to $250,000 in agricultural sales represent 347,600 farms or 18.2 percent of the total farms, but account for 21.1 percent of the national sales.
How many mega-farms are in Iowa? In Iowa, 3,933 farms or 4.3 percent of the state total generate more than $500,000 in sales. This represented 36.2 percent of the 1997 statewide sales of agricultural products by farms. The mid-size commercial farms with sales between $250,000 and $500,000 represent 8,404 more Iowa farms and they account for 24.1 percent of the agricultural sales of the state. When these two groups are combined, the data show that 12,337 Iowa farms account for 60.3 percent of the state's agricultural sales. The smaller commercial farms with sales of $50,000 to $250,000 represent another 32,854 farms or 36.2 percent of Iowa's total number of farms. This group, in turn, accounted for another 34.2 percent of Iowa's agricultural sales, according to the 1997 Census of Agriculture.

Among the documents sought by the 25-year-old publicist were records revealing Mr McInnes' use of his expense account to pay for hotel rooms in Sydney.
Rachel Francois, Ms Fraser-Kirk's barrister, told a judge she was "trying to be discreet", but big bills racked up in the city's hotels – Mr McInnes lives in Bondi – would create an "irresistible inference" about his conduct. "I think we'd put that in the 'good try' category," judge Geoffrey Flick said earlier.
The three-hour hearing in the Federal Court was marked by testy moments between Ms Fraser-Kirk's legal team and Justice Flick.
Of a request for a list of all invitees to corporate events at which Ms Fraser-Kirk claims Mr McInnes came onto her, Justice Flick said: "You'd better make this one good."
"I'm a little surprised by Your Honour's attitude," Ms Francois said.
Ms Francois narrowed the list of people sought – which could reveal potential witnesses – to people invited by the Sydney-based retailer, including to a cosmetics function where Ms Fraser-Kirk claims the CEO asked her to go to his home for sex.
The judge was critical of Ms Fraser-Kirk's request for documents revealing discussions between Mr McInnes and any other person about her and 11 other unnamed women alleging sexual harassment against him in her claim. "If he writes a letter to his mother, do you want that as well?" he said.
"If he says, 'gosh, Ms Fraser-Kirk's cute', yes," her lawyer replied.
The communications were relevant to "who was trying to flirt with whom", Ms Francois said. Justice Flick said the scope of documents had to be narrower.
Anthony Meagher, SC, a barrister for Mr McInnes, said Ms Francois was "adept" at making unsupported claims, a reference to Ms Francois' allegation Mr McInnes asked another woman to "pretend she encouraged" his advances. Ms Francois said this was not fair.
Other documents sought, including records of telephone calls and text messages between Mr McInnes and the women, were ruled too broad. But Justice Flick found Mr McInnes and the David Jones board were entitled to access communications between Ms Fraser-Kirk, her lawyers and her media advisers to test her claim for "media management" expenses.

Critical Oxygen Requirements to Avoid Oedema of the Central and Peripheral Cornea
Brennan, Noel A., Efron, Nathan, & Carney, Leo G. (1987) Critical Oxygen Requirements to Avoid Oedema of the Central and Peripheral Cornea. Acta Ophthalmologica, 65(5), pp. 556-564.
A randomized double-masked experiment was performed to compare the critical oxygen concentrations required to avoid corneal thickening at the central and peripheral cornea. Pachometry was performed on 10 subjects before and after 3 h of corneal exposure to the following gasmixtures: 0.00, 1.01, 2.65, 5.13 and 10.3% oxygen, balance nitrogen. Widely ranging critical values (from 4.4 to 11.6% for the central cornea and 1.7 to 15.8% for the peripheral cornea) could be obtained depending upon the analytical procedure used to treat the data; that is, the choice of reference baseline, the curve fitting procedure adopted and the method of comparing the reference baseline with the fitted curve. The estimates of the critical oxygen requirement of the central cornea are consistent with previous studies when compared using the same analytical procedure. Similar critical values were derived for the central and peripheral cornea for any given analytical procedure (e.g. 9.8% for the central cornea, and 12.3% for the peripheral cornea for zero mean change in corneal thickness). Our findings indicate that anatomical and physiological differences between the central and peripheral cornea do not have clinically significant effects on the minimum oxygen requirements at these respective sites. This result has implications with respect to lens design considerations for alleviating physiological stress of the cornea during contact lens wear.

ABCA12 gene
ATP binding cassette subfamily A member 12
The ABCA12 gene provides instructions for making a protein known as an ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter. ABC transporter proteins carry many types of molecules across cell membranes. In particular, the ABCA12 protein plays a major role in transporting fats (lipids) in cells that make up the outermost layer of skin (the epidermis). This lipid transport appears to be essential for normal development of the skin. The ABCA12 protein is also found in several other tissues, including the testes, placenta, lung, stomach, and fetal brain and liver.
Several mutations in the ABCA12 gene have been identified in people with harlequin ichthyosis. Most of these mutations probably lead to an absence of ABCA12 protein or the production of an extremely small version of the protein that cannot transport lipids properly. A lack of lipid transport causes numerous problems with the development of the epidermis before and after birth. Specifically, it prevents the skin from forming an effective barrier against fluid loss (dehydration) and infections, and leads to the formation of hard, thick scales characteristic of harlequin ichthyosis.

Smith's Olde Bar to Host Haiti Benefit on February 1 with Van Heiniken, Nelson Nolen Experiment and More!
Smith's Olde Bar has quickly put together a great gig to benefit the people of Haiti affected by the earthquake last week. Called WE CARE 2010, the event will feature performances by Van Heiniken, Nelson Nolen Experiment, HIP TO DEATH, son.aria, The Dead Rites and others.
From the venue:
Experts are
estimating over 50,000+ people are dead because of the 7.0 earthquake that hit
Haiti on January 12th, 2010. They fear that the death toll may reach 100,000 or
more. This is a time for us to get together, and share the wealth. You may not
be rich, but we guarantee that you have more than these people. Smith's Olde Bar
is working together with Red Cross, which has already raised over $200 million
dollars, to generate some money for these Haitians. It's a scary time for them,
let's not let them think that they are alone. We've lined up some pretty cool
bands to entertain you while you're doing a great deed. If you can't make it
out, we understand, but please make a donation to Red Cross to help in whatever
way you can. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
Tickets are available now at Ticket Alternative.

Cabinet OKs income, business tax revisions
By John Liu ,The China Post Friday, March 14, 2014, 12:09 am TWN
TAIPEI, Taiwan -- The Executive Yuan held a meeting yesterday to review measures needed to beef up the government's financial structure, and approved amendments to the business tax act and income tax act, in an effort to increase the government's tax revenues.
The meeting was chaired by Vice Premier Mao Chi-kuo (毛治國), and attended by representatives from the Directorate General of Budget, Accounting and Statistics (DGBAS), the Ministry of Finance (MOF) and the National Development Council. The team aimed to review the government's different expense items.
According to Executive Yuan spokesman Sun Lih-chyun (孫立群), the government currently runs an annual budget deficit of roughly NT$270 billion, and it was decided in the meeting the government will try to cut NT$45 billion out of this year's total expenses.
The Executive Yuan said the government can no longer neglect the budget deficit issue. To address this problem, the Ministry of Finance recently rolled out a package to beef up the nation's financial structure.
The package has been approved by the Executive Yuan, which also set up a designated team to review the implementation progress. Vice Premier Mao was tasked with leading the team, which is divided into income and expense units.
Goal of NT$70 Billion in Tax Revenue Per Year
Under the financial package's plan, the government aims to generate about NT$70 billion through tax revenue per year, which is about one-fourth of the NT$270 billion budget deficit. As such, the government must trim expenses to make up for the other three-fourths.
In order to generate more income, the MOF is carrying out taxation reforms. Amendments to the Value-added and Non-value-added Business Tax Act and Income Tax Act were deliberated and passed in the meeting yesterday, which will be submitted to the Legislative Yuan for review. The Cabinet said it marked the first step to beef up the government's financial structure successfully.
Sales taxes levied on banking and insurance industries will be hiked from 2 percent to 5 percent. With the new tax rate, the MOF expects to collect NT$20 billion in additional tax revenues per year.
The MOF also intends to make adjustments to the imputation tax system. With the adjustment, the MOF intends to halve the amount of deductibles that may be applied toward individual income tax. This new measure is expected to bring in NT$50 billion worth of taxes per year. The MOF also intends to levy 5-percent feedback tax on the rich, collecting NT$9.9 billion worth of additional tax revenue.
Other Measures to Tap Cash Flows
In order to tap new cash flows, besides making adjustments to the taxation system, the MOF will try to better utilize land assets in the government's portfolio, to review the privatization process so as to release stocks to the public, and to enhance the efficiency of government operations.
Yesterday's meeting discussed various subjects, including the government's obligatory expenses, basic operational needs and operation-related special funds. After internal discussion conducted with various government agencies, another meeting will be held within two weeks to further study the necessity of each of the government's expense items.

Day 37: Ishigaki
Lazy beach day! WE DID: We borrowed bikes from our hotel and cycled to the Maezato beach (in front of the ANA hotel), where we rented a parasol and chairs and settled down (in the shade) for some companionable kindle time. We did take a dip in the sea to cool down a bit later but the water was so warm it wasn't that effective! James cycled to the supermarket late morning to get some lunch and we picnicked on the beach before some more relaxed time ...
Day 36: Ishigaki island
The night before we started speaking to a couple in a bar and they invited us to join them on a beach day. While great as a base to reach the other Yaeyama Islands, Ishigaki is hard to get around without a car and so we jumped at the chance to be able to see some of the more remote beaches to the north of the island. WE DID: - met our new friends who drove us to Sunset beach, to chill in ...
Day 35: Taketomi (Ishigaki)
... at Star Sand beach to search for star-shaped sand particles (James found one!) - cycled to Kondoi beach for a dip in the sea and a mango shaved ice - took a trip in a cart pulled by a water buffalo, with a guide talking about the island and singing... unfortunately it was all in Japanese! - ferry back to Ishigaki for a really ...
Day 34: Iriomote (Ishigaki)
... lunch (Okinawan ramen) prepared on the spot at the top of the waterfall looking over the bay - trek back down through the jungle followed by a final kayak back to the minibus, then ferry back to Ishigaki - after a quick freshen up and change at the hotel we cycled to the nearest beach via the supermarket and had a picnic on the beautiful empty beach WE LOVED: Everything! One of the best days so ...

Literacy Knowledge & Skills
refers to the knowledge and skills that lay the foundation for reading and writing, such as understanding basic concepts about books or other printed materials, the alphabet, and letter-sound relationships. Early literacy is the foundation for reading and writing in all academic endeavors in school. It is considered one of the most important areas for young children's development and learning. Early literacy learning provides children with an opportunity to explore the world through books, storytelling, and other reading and writing activities. It is a mechanism for learning about topics they enjoy and acquiring content knowledge and concepts that support progress in other domains. It is critical for supporting a range of positive outcomes, including success in school and other environments. In the domain of Literacy Knowledge & Skills, programs need to ensure that children who are dual language learners can demonstrate their abilities, skills, and knowledge in any language, including their home language.
