This fall, Governor Tom Corbett is hoping to make good on a campaign promise by creating a voucher program for Pennsylvania's public school students. The state-funded vouchers would pay for tuition at private and religious schools. Some critics call Corbett's voucher plan unconstitutional and unaffordable. Others say they it doesn't go nearly far enough. And everyone agrees it will be hard to pass.
It's dismissal time at Decatur Elementary in Northeast Philadelphia, and Shanee Garner is waiting to talk to parents about vouchers. "Everyone we've talked to, with the exception of one person, had no idea what a voucher was," said Garner.
Garner works for a regional education advocate group called Public Citizens for Children and Youth. She's here to drum up opposition to a program that she says will hurt public education as a whole.
"There will be a small number of students who could hypothetically benefit," said Garner. "We don't know if that benefit would be academic, but some would somewhat would benefit from some would call the choice. But we know that it would do nothing to help public schools get better."
Vouchers represent one of the nation's oldest and most hotly debated school reform policies. The idea is to use state education dollars to pay tuition at private and parochial schools. Former Governor Tom Ridge tried and failed to pass a voucher plan. Now, current Governor Tom Corbett has revived the idea. He wants to spend about $21 million on what he calls "opportunity scholarships" for low income students.
"Students who earn 130 percent or less of the federal poverty rate would be eligible for these scholarships. This money could be used to attend another public school that's available to them and has the available space, a charter school, or a private school," said Corbett.
Voucher supporters say they're the simplest way to get students out of low-performing public schools. But critics point to an analysis by the Pennsylvania State Senate finding that most vouchers would go to students who are already in private schools. Brett Schaeffer is with Philadelphia's Education Law Center.
"What I think we're seeing and what I think we have concerns about is the kind of bait and switch that's happening here, where a lot of the rhetoric is about helping kids in public schools that are failing, when in reality it's a handout to kids that are already in private schools," said Schaeffer.
Vouchers also face a political problem. In the past, they've failed to win the support of many rural lawmakers whose districts don't have many private schools. Rep. Mark Cohen, a Democrat from Northeast Philadelphia, says that's still an obstacle.
"Any program of funding non-public schools is inherently not a statewide program--its only for areas that have non-public schools," said Cohen.
A recent poll found that almost two-thirds of Pennsylvania voters oppose vouchers. But the policy has its supporters. Vouchers have been pushed hard by some national groups, including Students First, which advocates for school choice, and Freedom Works, dedicated to low taxes and small government. And they've always had the staunch support of the Catholic Church.
"I heard vouchers back when I was teaching in the eighties and nineties. It always comes out with great enthusiasm, but then it exits as quickly as it comes to the fore," said Mary Rochford, the superintendent of schools for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. She thinks a voucher program could help the Archdiocese fill about half of its 7,000 empty seats. But she also says her schools would probably need extra funding to support new students who struggle academically.
"If all of a sudden you have three students who need 95 percent of the teachers time, then what about the rest of the class? We see every child as a gift from God, and we want to help everybody, but we can't do it in this day and age without the appropriate funding to be able to do it," said Rochford.
Corbett has yet to share many details of his voucher plan, which would probably provide about $7,000 to $9,000 per student. It would also start small, targeting students at the state's lowest-performing schools. These limits frustrate some voucher supporters. Don Adams is a co-founder of the Independence Hall Tea Party Association. He's helped lobby for vouchers for decades and he thinks Corbett's plans come up short.
"It is really targeted towards low income students, it's not broad enough, it doesn't assist people who send their kids to private or parochial schools, or parents that home school, or parents that cyber-school their children," said Adams.
Adams would like to see vouchers go to any student ina failing school. He doesn't see a problem with state funding for religious schools. And he thinks that even those legislators who don't have a lot of private schools in their districts should support vouchers anyway.
"They have to realize that parents even in their areas might want choice, and even if there might not be a school there today, there might be a school there tomorrow," he said.
Observers on both sides of the political divide agree that a voucher bill won't be easy to pass. It faces strong opposition from teachers unions and many Democrats. And so far some key Republican voucher supporters are sounding lukewarm about Corbett's limited plan.

text: Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. (NYSE: KMP) today increased its quarterly cash distribution per common unit to $1.20 ($4.80 annualized) payable on May 15, 2012, to unitholders of record as of April 30, 2012. This represents a 5 percent increase over the first quarter 2011 cash distribution per unit of $1.14 ($4.56 annualized) and is up from $1.16 per unit ($4.64 annualized) for the fourth quarter of 2011. KMP has increased the distribution 43 times since current management took over in February of 1997. Chairman and CEO Richard D. Kinder said, "KMP had a strong first quarter, as our stable and diversified assets continued to grow and produce incremental cash flow. In total, our five business segments produced more than $1 billion in segment earnings before DD&A and certain items, an increase of 17 percent over the first quarter of 2011, led by strong results at our CO 2 and Natural Gas Pipelines businesses. Looking ahead, we believe there are multiple growth opportunities across our businesses related to the natural gas shale plays, growing CO 2 needs in West Texas for enhanced oil recovery, increasing demand for export coal, and additional infrastructure requirements to transport products from the Canadian oilsands and to move and store natural gas liquids. With our large footprint of assets in North America, KMP is well positioned for future growth." KMP reported first quarter distributable cash flow before certain items of $462 million, up 21 percent from $382 million for the comparable period in 2011. Distributable cash flow per unit before certain items was $1.37 compared to $1.21 for the first quarter last year. First quarter net income before certain items was $534 million compared to $424 million for the same period in 2011. Including certain items, net income was $208 million compared to $341 million for the first quarter last year. Certain items for the first quarter totaled a net loss of $326 million versus a net loss of $83 million for the same period last year. Almost all of the certain items in the current quarter are attributed to the re-measurement of discontinued operations to fair value related to the assets to be divested in order to obtain Federal Trade Commission approval for Kinder Morgan, Inc.'s proposed acquisition of El Paso Corporation.

Madrid - The driver of the train that derailed in Santiago de Compostela, north-western Spain, last week, killing 79 people, was talking on the phone with state train operator Renfe at the time of the accident, a court said on Tuesday after analysing the train's data recording devices.
The initial reading of the so-called black boxes said driver Francisco Garzon received a call from Renfe minutes before the accident to discuss the path to Ferrol, the final destination for the high-speed train that departed from Madrid on Wednesday with 218 passengers aboard.
The court investigating the case said that by the conversation and background noise picked up on the black boxes, the driver appeared to be consulting a map or some kind of paper document while on the phone with Renfe staff.
The train was travelling at 192km/h in the minutes before it derailed in a curve where speed is limited at 80km/h, according to the two black boxes, which are actually orange in colour and located at the front and the back of the train.
The eight-carriage train slowed to 153km/h at the time of the crash after a brake was activated seconds before.
Garzon, 52, admitted in a closed-door hearing to taking the curve too fast, blaming it on a momentary lapse, according to media reports.
He has been charged with negligent homicide by Investigating Magistrate Luis Alaez, who is also probing whether the train, the tracks or the security system that slow down the trains may also have been at fault.
Sixty-six injured people remained in hospital on Tuesday, with 15 in critical condition. - Reuters

Tribal Sovereignty Lesson Plan
Revitalizing Culture Lesson Plan
Native Humor Lesson Plan
What to watch for:
On the DVD
On this web site
Background for Teachers: In Spiral of Fire, former Principal Chief Joyce Duggan is frustrated with the limitations of sovereignty. "We're not sovereign in this nation. If we were sovereign in this nation we would not have to depend on federal government dollars. We would not have to go to the state for gaming approvals. We would be able to live independently in our own nation, which is what we were doing in 1838 at the time of the removal."
Questions for Students: What are the limitations on sovereignty? Are tribes really separate nations? What powers do they have?
Chapter Five
"Casinos & Sovereignty"
Background for Teachers: In order to build their new school, the Cherokee had to go before Congress. Corey Blankenship was a high school student testifying for the tribe.
Questions for Students: Why did the tribe have to do that? The tribe's casino was paying for much of the school; why did they still have to go to Congress? Do you think you could testify before Congress?
Chapter Four
Background for Teachers: Casino profits have swelled the tribal budget, and now there are more people wanting to join.
Questions for Students: What were the issues that the Cherokee were facing in the program? How would you decide who should be an enrolled tribal member or who should be thrown out? Bo Taylor, from the Cherokee Museum, says, "The minute you say that you're Cherokee, I'm going to expect something out of you." What is it he expects?

Gresham Computing PLC
04 July 2006
For immediate release
4 July 2006
Gresham Computing plc
('Gresham' or the 'Company')
SCP confirmed as Shortlist Candidate
Gresham is delighted to announce the publication of an independent buyer's guide
report confirming Gresham's Storage Consolidation Platform ('SCP') as one of the
top 2 enterprise class software solutions in the global disk-to-disk market and
one that should be on every enterprise storage buyer's shortlist.
The report, by Diogenes and published recently by SearchStorage.com, helps IT
buyers differentiate between products and selects the best candidate for their
own situation. 13 of the top products were compared under lab tests that probed
ease-of-use, manageability, features/functions and technical support systems.
Gresham's SCP technology scored 281/2 out of 30 across these tests ranking it
amongst the only 3 Shortlist Candidates identified in the report, and scoring it
some distance ahead of several household names in the storage market such as
Neartek, Overland, FalconStore and Fujitsu-Siemens.
Diogenes Analytical Laboratories Inc is widely regarded as an independent expert
voice in the global enterprise storage market and was founded by IT industry
veterans with the goal of delivering valuable, unbiased, technically-based
technology analysis. The report is published on SearchStorage.com, 'The Web's
best storage-specific information resource for enterprise IT professionals'.
Andrew Walton-Green, Chief Executive Officer of Gresham, commented:
'I am delighted to report that Gresham has been so highly ranked in this
independent test of storage solutions in the disk-to-disk market. SCP offers
more than just tape virtualisation because it also offers a complete
enterprise-tape management platform. With SCP, users can monitor the operations
of all virtual and real resources in their entire tape storage environment from
one location. It consolidates management of all of the tape resources regardless
of the variety of operating systems, backup applications and tape devices in
that environment. This is something that we believe few competitors can really
offer. Putting it simply, tape is our heritage and as many CTOs are keen to
point out, whilst disk is important, for the foreseeable future tape continues
to play a critical role in enterprise storage management.
Gresham has been providing enterprise class storage software to a large number
of the world's largest corporates for many years. If you have a credit card or
car keys in your pocket then it is highly likely that Gresham software provides
a storage solution to the associated brand name.
The Gresham storage team has yet again delivered first class technology that
solves enterprise level issues in the global storage market. The result
announced today again validates our position as experts in the storage market.
As the report says, if you are thinking of procuring a disk-to-disk solution in
the near future then you had better place Gresham firmly on your shortlist.'

" Brand: Heinz / Type: Tomato "
I normally go for supermarket own brand tinned tomatoes, but as a pack of four cans of Heinz Chopped Tomatoes were available in Tesco for £1.89, I bought these instead.
The tin is certainly more attractive than most tins of tomatoes. It is covered all over with tomatoes and leaves, presumably to promote the description of the tomatoes as "grown outside and sun-ripened on the vine". The tin has the Heinz logo and "Est. 1869" on it. The ingredients list is simple enough: tomatoes (65%), tomato juice (35%) and citric acid. The tomatoes are suitable for vegetarians and for a gluten-free diet. Half a can is only 33 calories - great for us dieters!
To cook, simmer on the hob for 3-4 minutes stirring occasionally, or add to tomato-based dishes. Now personally I can't think of an occasion when I would want to eat these tomatoes by themselves, but each to their own. Any remaining tomatoes must be kept in the fridge and consumed within 2 days.
I think you can definitely tell the difference between these tomatoes and cheaper brands. The tomatoes are cut into large chunks and generously portioned. There isn't too much sauce but it is thick and tasty.
I normally make a cheap pasta sauce from these: fry onions and garlic in a pan, add half a can of these tomatoes, a little tomato paste and some basil and oregano, heat up and pour over cooked pasta. It's simple, and a lot cheaper than normal pasta sauces.
I really like these tinned tomatoes, but as long as I'm a skint student I'll be sticking to cheaper brands unless these are on special offer. They are nice though so when I get a proper job I might start buying them regularly!
I didn't know Heinz did tinned tomatoes until I saw them in Morrisons the other week, they was on special offer and only cost 49p for a 400g tin so I brought a couple of tins to try because I'm going off the cheap tinned tomatoes big time.
These are delish and it makes sense for Heinz to bring their own version out because their tinned food is always tasty. You can tell the difference between these tomatoes and the cheaper brands because the sauce has got a lovely rich taste and texture, it's not as thick as you get in the Napolina tomatoes but deffo tastes dead fresh and rich.
The tomatoes are chopped into quite big chunks and I was glad there wasn't many end bits of tomato in the tin, I counted 2 small ends in this tin and they were cooked proper nice so that they wasn't hard or green at all. I still took them out though because I'm a bit funny about the ends of tomatoes but I don't think anyone would notice if you slipped an end onto their bacon and tomato butty!
The sauce has got a lovely fresh colour and goes proper nice with the chunks of tomato, I think the tomato has got a perfect texture because there's a bit of bite to them but they are also soft and fresh tasting.
I have had these on bacon sandwiches and also used a tin to put into a stew to make it a bit more exciting than just having a meaty gravy. In the stew they was delish because they kept their shape good and the juice gave the gravy a nice change of taste.
I thought the juice was a bit salty tasting but that doesn't bother me that much because I usually drain most of the juice off, especially when I'm having tomatoes on a sandwich.
I reckon these are proper nice tinned tomatoes, a zillion times better than the cheap supermarket tomatoes and not that much more expensive while they're on special offer! I prefer the thicker juice of Napolina though so will still buy those sometimes if I need something where I can use both the tomatoes and the juice.
Recommended..... better than Tesco Value!!!

Hi.. this is a clock that was left to her by her parents. There wasn't any information with it or story of where it came from. I'm hoping someone will have seen something like this and would have some information or could tell me a place to start looking. This has sat on her coffee table for the last 50 years or so and I'd like togive her the scoop If I can.

Making appearance on 'The Tonight Show', the 'Machete' actress shares to host Jay Leno what she hopes to achieve before reaching 30.
Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan apparently is optimistic about her future in the movie industry despite all of her legal woes. The "Mean Girls" star stopped by "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on Monday, April 25, and shared to host Jay Leno that she hopes to winning an Oscar before she reached 30.
In the interview aired on Tuesday, April 26, the 24-year-old was quizzed where she sees herself six years from now. Responding to the question, the actress who first appeared on "The Tonight Show" when she was 12 simply said, "Hopefully sitting her after I've won an Oscar." She added, "That would be ideal."
Asked if she worried she won't get roles in movies, the actress who has just landed a part in "Gotti: Three Generations" admitted, "I've made a lot of poor decisions in the past and I'm dealing with the consequences of those decisions." She added, "So yeah, there were times when I was concerned, but I'm a fighter and I know that I have to work to gain the respect back. And I'm willing to do the work that I have to do to follow through with being an actress."
Lilo continued. "I feel like I've let a lot of my fans down by putting myself in situations when I was young and wasn't thinking clearly. I really just want to be the person that I aspire to be, and be the actress, and be in this industry and make movies and do what I love to do, and bring characters to life that people can relate to. And my fans have been really supportive of me doing that."
Speaking of being sentenced to spend another 120 days in jail, the "Machete" actress admitted that it was "definitely a bit shocking," before adding, "I was kind of numb." As for her previous experience behind bars, she said, "It was an interesting experience. It was definitely a wake-up call. When it happened...Everything happens for a reason."
During the chat, Lilo also pointed out, "Being young and being in the position that I was in, you don't really take the time to appreciate what you have, and it's all kind of a whirlwind and people make decisions for you. But I'm not a kid anymore, I'm 24, I've made a lot of mistakes and I recognize that. But I'm in the clear now, and as long as I stay focused, I will achieve what I want to achieve."

CHRISTMAS presents have been stolen in a spate of burglaries across the Cotswolds.
Four burglaries were reported in Northleach, three in Nostle Road and one in Fortey Road, and a further three burglaries were reported in Tewkesbury.
The crimes in Northleach all happened overnight between Friday December 14 and Saturday December 15.
Entry was forced to each of the homes and at three of the addresses items were stolen, including wrapped Christmas presents and jewellery.
Gloucestershire Police are investigating whether these four burglaries are linked to three incidents at addresses in Tewkesbury.
Between 6.30pm and 10.40pm on Saturday December 15 two homes in Fitzhamon Park in Ashchurch were broken into and an attempt was made to force entry to another.
Nothing has been reported as stolen from the properties in Tewkesbury.
Investigating officers are appealing to both communities to call them on 101, quoting incident number 395 of December 14, if they saw or heard any suspicious activity in the neighbourhoods.
Information can also be given anonymously by contacting the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or via www.crimestoppers-uk.org and you may receive a reward if someone is arrested and charged.

This looks like a cool project:
My issue right from the start: how do I know the terra cotta at the store is lead free. I doubt that it is marked.
Also, once it is built, I don't see an easy way to get the ashes out. I would hate to build something like this for a one time use.

Public Comments on Proposed Rule Change for Request for Reconsideration: William P. Berridge, Oliff & Berridge, PLC
Oliff & Berridge, PLC
Attorneys at Law
277 South Washington Street
Alexandria, Virginia 22314
Sent: April 13, 2007
To: Commissioner for Trademarks
Attn: Cynthia C. Lynch
Subject: Comments on Proposed Rule Change Regarding Filing Requests for Reconsideration of Final Office Actions in Trademark Cases
Oliff & Berridge, PLC is a nationwide law firm specializing in intellectual property matters. Its trademark practice serves corporations and individuals from every continent and has prosecuted thousands of matters before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO). Its practice before the PTO offers it a perspective and depth of experience necessary to provide the following comments regarding the proposed rule change.
The PTO is proposing an amendment to 37 CFR §2.64 that would reduce the amount of time afforded to file a Request for Reconsideration from six months to three months from the issuance of a final office action. The change would also mandate that the Request for Reconsideration be filed online through the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS). The PTO's stated goals in proposing the rule change are 1) to streamline and promote efficiency in the prosecution process after the issuance of a final action; 2) to ease the burden on applicants by obviating the need for applicants to file a Notice of Appeal in cases where Requests for Reconsideration are granted; and 3) to reduce the need for transfers and remands of cases between the Examining Attorney and the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TAB), thereby reducing the period of pendency of applications.
The requirement that a Request for Reconsideration be filed through TEAS would get such request in front of the Examining Attorney faster, thereby promoting efficiency and reducing the pendency of applications. As such, this portion of the proposed rule change is clearly useful to the goals set out by the PTO. The remainder of the proposed rule change appears to be contradictory to the PTO's goals.
First, limiting the amount of time to file the Request for Reconsideration to three months, with three additional months for filing amendments, formalizes and encourages piecemeal prosecution. If the PTO reduces the amount of time to submit a Request for Reconsideration to three months, applicants will be motivated to submit timely Requests for Reconsideration with only a portion of the overall substance and to file supplemental amendments in advance of the six-month deadline if the Request is unsuccessful. Such behavior would nullify the efficiency purpose of the proposed rule change, but an applicant engaged in the time-consuming process of gathering information and materials for entry into the record might have no other option. Also, filing a Request for Reconsideration separate from subsequent amendments would introduce unnecessary complexity to the process. Examining Attorneys would need to waste their resources determining whether particular arguments pertain to the Request for Reconsideration or a subsequent amendment.
With respect to the PTO's alleged goal of easing the burden of applicants by reducing the time available to them, the preparation for filing a Request for Reconsideration in an applicant's shall attempt to overcome a refusal for registration before appeal may require a significant amount of time for legal research, for negotiating, drafting and executing consent agreements, for compiling information and/or materials, and/or for various other activities that assist an applicant in overcoming a find refusal. As such, by cutting in half the amount of time an applicant has to submit the Request for Reconsideration, the proposed rule change is directly contradictory to the PTO's alleged goal and unduly burdens applicants.
An alternative to the proposed rule change that would accomplish the stated goals of the PTO without increasing the burden on either the applicants or the PTO would be to conduct this process in the same or similar fashion as it is handled on the patent side of the PTO. That is, rather than having a case transferred to the TAB upon the filing of a Notice of Appeal, the case could remain with the Examining Attorney until appeal briefing is completed. Also, the amount of time in which to file the Appeal Brief after the Notice of Appeal is filed and to file any Reply Brief and/or request an oral hearing could be standardized to eliminate any need for TAB involvement until briefing is completed. See 37 C.F.R. 41.35, 41.37, 41.41, 41.43 and 41.47. By implementing these changes, the PTO's goals can be attained without the need to increase the burden on applicants and Examining Attorney. This alternative suggestion would promote simplicity and predictability in the appeal process, as well as result in fewer petitions relating to rule compliance. At the same time, applicants would have the time required to prepare a thorough record for appeal. This would not increase the pendency of trademark applications. Moreover, Exchange Attorneys could moot an appeal after seeing applicant's appeal brief, minimizing the involvement of the TTAB in some cases.
Very truly yours,
William P. Berridge

We have had these old coke machines for years past down from are father. My father farmed and he rented land from this gentleman that was a great inventor in his day and actually a hero WWII pilot. Story was said that he made these machines for Owens Glass Bottling Co. from Streator IL. Dr. Pepper has something involved in this too. At the time he didn't go ahead and get the patent being expensive even back then I'm guessing. The sad story about this was my father years ago had the working guts of the machine and threw them away. You cant see from the pictures but the bottles and change dispensing came out through the sides. These are 3 individual units. But he didn't know at the time. They were just in his way in a old house. Anyway, does anybody recognize these 3 units? Thanks

We invited some key beauty and lifestyle bloggers from Scotland along to the Glasgow clinic for an inside peek into the world of non surgical treatments.
Our aim was to dispel some of the myths out there regarding injectible treatments such as Botox and fillers and to showcase a couple of treatments being undertaken in full view of all attendees.
It was a great evening all round – lots of interesting chat around various treatments and skin concerns.
I think it's safe to say that most attendees left better informed about the various non surgical treatments on offer and we hope, some of them will be back to try some out for themselves.
Take a look at our short video of the event.

Many individuals in Kansas City have fallen victim to the faulty claims of "Buy Here Pay Here" dealers. Although those with poor or no credit may believe these businesses offer the best option for buying a used car, DriveTime may offer a more attractive alternative. With our wide selection of vehicles, easy payment options, and commitment to customer service, DriveTime usually blows Kansas City "Buy Here Pay Here" lots out of the water.
Among the many "Buy Here Pay Here" lots Kansas City, many place little or no priority on stocking reliable used cars. They charge unrealistically high prices for these vehicles, knowing if their customers fail to make payments due to high maintenance costs, they can simply repossess and sell them again.
Working with Kansas City "Buy Here Pay Here" dealers frequently means customers work directly with an in-house financing department to make payment arrangements. Although these establishments say their financing is "convenient" and "easy," it fails to take into account the unique circumstances of each individual. At DriveTime, our in-house financing is tailored to find the most appropriate payment plans for each of our customers, giving them a chance to establish on-time payment history.
When seeking a used car in Kansas City, avoid buying into the lie that "Buy Here Pay Here" dealers are your only option. The majority of these businesses will take your hard-earned cash, providing little in return. At DriveTime, we offer a distinguished selection of cars, SUVs, vans, and trucks, as well as a wide array of financing options for vehicles to meet your budget. Our in-house financing company reports all your payments to the credit bureaus.

Click to Enlarge No need to mince words here — palladium is the one metal definitely worth taking a short-term shot on here, and it's possible that short-term trend could become a long-term one.
Palladium hasn't been whacked too hard this year. In fact, it hasn't even been shaken out of its trendlines at all. Rather, a small dip in June was reversed once the metal met up with a rising support line — a support line that makes up the lower side of a wedge pattern. That should be enough to carry palladium prices all the way up to the upper side of the wedge at $767 per ounce.
That test of the upper boundary also will be the third time it's been tested in just a few months, however, and it might well be the case that the bulls are going to blast past that ceiling this time around. If that's the case, we could end up with another rally like the ones we saw in 2009 or 2010.

I am being compensated for this post, but I eagerly accepted the assignment because ... hey, it's shopping online! You KNOW the comments and opinions are my own. I only share with I believe, folks.
So, who shops online? All ya'all do. Don't fool me! It's a woman's pasttime. I was writing about the whole shopping online, marketing online, and women way back in the early part of THIS century, way before the old fogies of that previous century got wind of what was happening.
Women like shopping. I don't profess to understand why, even though I'm a woman, but I do understand the fun of it. Window shopping can get you only so far, though. You have to buy! And when you're ready to buy, if you're online, you want some coupons... don't you? I know I do.

DURHAM - Today, Scott Brown continued his "Making Higher Education Work" tour at the University of New Hampshire to meet with local college graduates and students and discuss his higher education proposal aimed at reducing college tuition and creating more opportunities for students entering the workforce.
"These students are our country's future and we have to provide them with the tools they need to start careers and achieve their goals," said Brown. "My commonsense proposals will get at the root of the problems in our education system, to make tuition more affordable and provide better opportunities for young people seeking their first jobs."
Brown's plan works to address the problem with higher education at its core by reducing tuition increases, simplifying the financial aid process and creating more opportunities for women to pursue careers in the science and technology field. The plan presents bold, innovative solutions to a mounting problem that deters students from pursing their dreams.
"Figuring out how to pay college tuition bills has been a difficult process and I appreciate Scott Brown putting forward a realistic plan to control increasing higher education costs," said Stephanie Simoulis, a student at UNH. "Being able to establish a solid foundation is important to students and not having to pay off massive amounts of debt would help us achieve our goals."
Brown will continue the tour the state on his "Making Higher Education Work" tour, meeting with college graduates and students to outline his plan to lower the cost of higher education.

" Address: Cieszkowskiego 17 59-700 Bolesławiec, Poland "
Opalkowa Chata is a restaurant in a small city in the west of Poland named Boleslawiec. On one of our recent 'adventures' we stopped here for a spot of lunch and this is a review of our experience.
Opalkowa Chata is located on the main road which goes around the city of Boleslawiec. At the time we visited I wasn't driving so I cannot comment on exactly how to reach the restaurant, but I did see that it is clearly visible from quite far away if you are travelling along the only main road surrounding the city.
The exact address (taken from the restaurant website) is:
Restauracja Club'ik Opalkowa Chata I
ul. Cieszkowskiego 17
There is a decent sized car park located at the rear of the restaurant and it is free to use.
Eating in a Barn
Walking into Opalkowa Chata was like a cross between walking into a converted barn and a chalet in the mountains. The design of the building made it look like a log cabin and the amount of hay and fake hay they have used in the decor of the restaurant gives it the barn look.
Opalkowa Chata is split into 2 medium sized rooms, both rooms have wooden tables with benches on either side of them. We chose to sit in the 2nd room simply because there was a table available in there.
Once we were seated a waitress dressed in what I was told was traditional Polish costume, but I think it looked like a red version of a French maid, came over with the menus'. The menu is written in both English and Polish and browsing through it I could see I was a bit spoilt for choice. Eventually I settled upon Pierogi which is a kind of Ravioli crossed with dumplings creation, but there is also a number of other traditional Polish dishes including Bigos, Potato Pancakes and Pork Cutlets. For those who don't want something traditional you can always go for chicken or fish dishes.
We ordered our food and drinks and simply enjoyed the pleasure of relaxing while we waited.
I did find our waitress to be a little unfriendly and like she wasn't interested in what she was supposed to be doing and I did find it a quite rude when I was still eating my food and she leaned across me to remove an empty glass from the table!
Food Quality
My plate of Pierogi cost 13zl (Polish Zloty) and from looking at the menu this is about average for most of the dishes. In general you can expect to pay between 12zl and 15zl for your main meal and if you do choose to have one of the soups or other starters then these are around the 8zl - 14zl mark. We didn't have these though as generally a main meal is usually enough to fill me up.
My pierogi came served nice and hot in a bowl, I had chosen the variety with a cottage cheese, potato and onion filling and I am pleased to say they were cooked perfectly and delicious. I have eaten this dish in quite a few different restaurants and these were easily the nicest, the only thing I thought they could have done with was the option of having a sauce as I love the taste of pierogi when it is dipped in a sour cream or similar sauce.
Opalkowa Chata does have a desert menu which consists of 2 items both priced at 7zl. They were cheese cake and apple cake but we didn't want either of these so therefore didn't bother with them.
Our drinks were a coke and a small water, these were priced at 6zl and 4zl respectively. Other drinks available include juices, a small choice of beers or if you want to stick with the traditional you may want to try the boiled fruits or natural yoghurt options.
Children's Play Area
At the back of the restaurant is a rather large children's play area. I didn't go here as I don't have children, but it may be useful to know that it consisted of a large wooden climbing frame, a wooden seesaw and some balance beams. I can definitely see the appeal for children to play here as I thought it looked quite fun and I liked the setting it was in with large trees and general 'greenery'.
The toilets at Opalkowa Chata are hidden away in a corner through a cute wooden door, they are kept extremely clean to the point of the sinks even sparkled! They had ample toilet roll at the time of our visit and plenty of soap near the sinks.
Wheelchair Friendly?
The restaurant is wheelchair friendly although you may find some areas a little tricky to manoeuvre around if you delve further than the first room of the restaurant.
Exchange Rate
The current exchange rate as of June 2012 is 5.3zl to every £1. With this in mind I think the prices here are excellent.
Overall, I would recommend Opalkowa Chata, it is a lovely restaurant which serves traditional Polish food as well as less traditional dishes if you prefer. The restaurant has lots of character, I have never visited a place like this before and would more than happily re-visit here in the future.
Thanks for reading :)

Matuidi committed to Troyes
By Laurent Picard
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Blaise Matuidi has told Skysports.com he is not interested in a move to The Premiership.
Troyes starlet Blaise Matuidi has told Skysports.com he is not interested in a move to The Premiership.
The 19-year-old was linked with a move to Charlton during the January transfer window, and his agent Etienne Mendy claimed earlier this week that Tottenham were also keen.
However, Matuidi has insisted that he is in the dark about the reports, and is happy to remain at Troyes.
"I have heard about Charlton's interest, but it has only been rumours" Matuidi told skysports.com.
"I never answered the English press, and never said what was written in the papers.
"Me, my agent and Troyes have never been in contact with Charlton.
"People have told me Tottenham could be interested in me, but my club and my new agents, Pierre Frelot, Etienne Mendy have not heard about it.
"For the moment, I want to stay focused on Toulouse, and I don't want to think about a move abroad.
"I feel good in France, and don't want to leave."
Matuidi penned a four-year contract with Troyes in the summer, and is now in talks with the club about a possible extension.
"There has been an agreement between my president and my entourage to extend my contract," he revealed.
"If I sign, it means I want to remain here.
"Troyes loves to play sexy football. The style is attractive, our team plays a lot, and that is good for my future.
"I only want to think about improving. I am focused and don't want to think about The Premiership.
"We will see what happens in June."
Although he has no immediate plans to move to England, Matuidi did confess that Arsenal held a special place in his heart.
He said: "Arsenal are my favourite club. They build, thanks to youngsters.
"And to me, Arsene Wenger is the best coach in the world."

When most people hear the name San Francisco (JOBS), they think of fog blanketing the Golden Gate Bridge, the world famous Chinatown, tie-dyed shirts, the steep streets that were made famous by a car chase in the movie
Bullit (starring the late Steve McQueen), trolley cars, and thanks to excellent marketing, Rice-a-roni™. San
Francisco is truly a fantastic place!
San Francisco has something for everyone. If you can't find it, it's just because you aren't looking in the right
place, not because it isn't there. For the fine art fans, you can visit anything from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art for the highbrow, to the Cartoon Art Museum for the lowbrow or just plain fun. There's
the San Francisco Opera and the oldest professional ballet company in America. The theater scene
encompasses everything from schmaltzy Broadway to the confusing avant-garde. For the sports fans, the Bay Area has
plenty of teams to cheer for: MLB's San Francisco Giants or the Oakland Athletics; the NFL's San Francisco 49ers or the Oakland
Raiders; the NBA's Golden State
Warriors; the NHL's San Jose Sharks; and MLS's San Jose Earthquakes.
The real draw is the neighborhoods. These
wonderfully distinct places are home to many different cultures (and sub-cultures). Probably the three most famous
of these neighborhoods are the Castro District, Chinatown, and Haight-Ashbury. Castro is the "Gay Mecca" of the San
Fran area and a great place to people watch. Haight-Ashbury was probably the most famous place in the world for the
hippie culture in the '60s, being home to such notables as the Grateful Dead and Janis Joplin. As if the '60s never
left, tie-dye and incense are still "hip" in that neighborhood. Chinatown is like going to China without the
jetlag. The area is jammed with herbal medicine stores, temples, and, of course, unbeatable restaurants. But don't
stop there. Try South of Market (or SoMa) where all the hip clubs are popping up nowadays, or the Hispanic Mission
District, where you can celebrate Cinco de Mayo and Carnaval; or try North Beach, where you can enjoy a cappuccino
and a gelato; and the list keeps going.
Great public transportation within the city makes San Francisco one of the most easily commutable metropolitan
cities on the West Coast. The San Francisco
Municipal Railway (MUNI) shuttles over 200 million riders a year within the city and county of San Francisco 24
hours a day, 7 days a week. Two other train systems, the Bay Area
Rapid Transit, (BART) and Cal-Train takes commuters to
and from destinations in the surrounding Bay Area.
San Francisco is not only the heart of so many interesting, entertaining and historical spots it is also the
financial center of Northern California. San Francisco's financial district boasts a myriad of industries from
architecture, commerce, finance, engineering, and the life-sciences which is a reflection of the multitude of
industries found in the greater Bay Area, also dubbed the "Silicon Valley." San Francisco therefore is one of the
world's most advanced hubs for the computer and biotech and pharmaceutical industries.
San Francisco is ripe ground for life science research. In 2005, The California Institute for
Regenerative Medicine or "CIRM" was established in the Mission Bay district of San Francisco The CIRM is an
agency geared towards making grants and loans available for stem cell research throughout the state of California.
The San Francisco Biotech hub is home to a multitude of prominent companies, such as Osprey Pharmaceuticals
USA, Corbett
Robotics, Medivation
Inc., Via
Pharmaceuticals, Alios
BioPharma, Sirna
Therapeutics Inc., Diobex Inc., and McKesson Pharmaceutical. Pfizer is planning to make San Francisco home to its Biotherapeutics and Bioinnovation Center
in early 2010.
And just a few miles away in South San Francisco lies even more. There, you will find companies such as Solazyme, Inc., Rinat, Solstice Neurosciences,
Inc., Exelixis, Titan Pharmaceutical, Anesiva, Cell Genesys, Inc., Genemed, Elan Pharmaceuticals, Cerimon Pharmaceuticals,
and Genentech, Inc.

career fair experience is like and hear what job seekers and employers have to say:

Hi there,
I'm using <hn> header tags in my code.
with css i reset the margins and padding, but being a cs declaration in the head of the document, or and inline style on the <hn></hn> tag, windows live hotmail does not reset those margin and leave me with ugly unwanted gaps.
does this happen to anybody else?
since Hotmail is an html page itself you can assume it's not going to render any of your code that's in a <head> or <body> tag as it has it's own already. Also i know some online email systems disable inline styles... i think it was possibly hotmail that changed them from style="...." to xtyle="...." . As such we use as much old-school html as possible, ie shims for padding and eg <font size="3"><strong> for large text, that will look correct without needing stylesheets

FINANCIAL planners could lose as much as $460 million in annual fees from the government's surprise move to extend its crackdown on commissions to life insurance products sold as part of superannuation packages.
The measure was a late inclusion in the Future of Financial Advice proposals, aimed at lifting consumer confidence in the $1.3 trillion superannuation sector.
Under the government's proposal, all commissions for providing financial advice are banned and advisers must ask clients every two years to renew their services in an ''opt-in'' process.
Industry analysts said the clampdown on life insurance commissions could hit the big banks and players such as AMP or Tower Australia, which generate substantial life insurance sales through financial planners. The changes also hurt retail superannuation funds, which, unlike industry funds, are mostly sold through financial planners.
''I think the outcome is that less insurance will be sold, and we already have an under-insurance problem,'' said MLC group executive Steve Tucker.
Still, Mr Tucker welcomed the broader reforms, saying they would increase transparency and trust.
''Overall, we're getting a package here which takes the industry to a more professional footing,'' he said. ''Consumers have had some concerns over how the industry has been structured. This deals with most of those and that means more people can be more confident about getting financial advice.''
National Australia Bank-owned MLC was one of the first big planning groups to move away from commissions to a fee-for-service model.
Financial Services Minister Bill Shorten said yesterday the reforms were aimed at restoring trust in the financial advice system following the collapse of Storm Financial and Westpoint.
The changes would help remove the perception that ''cowboys'' were operating through the industry.
''We expect that on balance this will lead into Australians seeking more financial advice,'' he said.
But the Coalition signalled it was prepared to block key elements of the package, including any push to force consumers to opt in with a financial planner.
The Coalition's assistant treasury spokesman, Mathias Cormann, said this would be unnecessarily bureaucratic, and cause smaller financial advisers to pass on higher costs to their clients.
Financial Services Council chief executive John Brogden said that ''while financial advice will be of a higher quality, the reforms will force up the overall cost of advice to consumers.''

Skrtel praise for Kelly
Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel has praised the development of Martin Kelly into a first choice right-back.
Last Updated: 25/01/11 4:34pm
Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel has praised the development of Martin Kelly from youth player to first choice right-back.
The 20-year-old has become highly regarded since breaking into the first team this season, also taking Glen Johnson's place on the right side of defence despite being traditionally a centre-back.
In a season of struggle for the Reds, Kelly is one bright ray of hope for the younger players at Anfield, whose last player to really break through to become a mainstay on Merseyside was skipper Steven Gerrard ten years ago.
The England Under-21 international has had to come into a faltering defence with the likes of Skrtel and Johnson coming in for criticism in their performances against the likes of Blackburn, Blackpool and Everton this month.
But despite not being able to prevent the Reds from being beaten, his display in the FA Cup against Manchester United at Old Trafford demonstrated his potential.
Skrtel admits that Kelly has taken his opportunity with both hands since new boss Kenny Dalglish brought him in, and has lauded his ability to perform so consistently despite the problems the club have had recently.
"Martin's done very well for the club," he added.
"He's like a new signing for the club because that's four on the spin he's played now.
"He's earned it and it doesn't matter what age you are, if you are performing you'll have a chance of playing.
"It is impressive when you come into a team that isn't playing as well as it can and you play as well as he has done."

"People don't do right because of the fear of God or love of him. You do right because the world doesn't make sense if you don't."
~ Dorothy Allison, award-winning author
Cheers pal. I do apcaiperte the writing.
Mary Craven Derby 22/11/2012 2:50. Sorry to read about your plight. These rules about preserving the look of a house are completely ridiculous, I'm sure your windows can be replaced with ones, which stop the heat escaping, yet are still in keeping with the area. Our government could do with following the examples of Scandinavian countries, where the people living there make sure the poorest have proper insulation in their homes. Unfortunately our PM has got his priorities wrong in looking after the poorest in the UK.

Orchids The International School Sarjapur A nation's Independence Day is one of its most important day.Bastille Day is the common name given in English-speaking countries to the French National Day, which is celebrated on 14 July each year. In France, it is formally called La fête. This day remembers the end of the French monarchy and the beginning of the French Revolution.
To promote our modern foreign language curriculum, the students took part in a French themed day. The students and the teachers came to school dressed in the colours of the French flag. Children made the flag of France and coloured it appealingly. They also took part in an amazing fashion show and exhilarated the whole school by their incredible ramp walk. The students were provided a range of French based learning opportunities. They learned about France, French customs food and traditions. They also shared French cuisines with their friends during the break time. The whole school celebrated a lovely French Day. It was très bon!

No Trial Delay for Tobacco Industry
Request for Sept. 21 trial to be postponed until Jan. 10 denied.
NEW YORK --A federal court judge denied a tobacco industry request to delay the government's $280 billion racketeering case against the industry, reported the Dow Jones Newswire.
Tobacco manufacturers were asking for the case, which is scheduled to go to trial on Sept. 21, to be postponed until Jan. 10. The companies were requesting the delay in order to allow time for a federal appeals court to decide whether the government can seek $280 billion in penalties. A federal appeals court plans to hear oral arguments on the issue on Nov. 17, almost two months after the scheduled start of the trial.
Last week, U.S. District Court Judge Gladys Kessler signaled she was likely to reject the industry's request by moving forward with plans for the upcoming trial at a pretrial conference.
The defendants in the lawsuit include Altria Group Inc. and its Philip Morris USA unit, Loews Corp.'s Lorillard Tobacco Co. and Vector Group Ltd.'s Liggett Group. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. and Brown & Williamson, which merged earlier this year to form Reynolds American Inc., are also named in the suit.
The case was originally filed in 1999 by the Clinton administration. It accuses the tobacco industry of deliberately conspiring to mislead the public about the dangers of smoking and of working to recruit young smokers.
The industry denies the charges and claims it has changed the way it markets and sells its products.

Hi guys! This is one of my first posts - thanks for all of the helpful information I've already gleaned from this website. I was hoping all of you experts out there could weigh in on my situation...
My wife and I bought a small 1100 squ ft. ranch house 1 year ago. The house has an old coal stove installed in the unfinished basement (directly hooked up to a chimney), as well as a large coal bin (with a hole from the garage to dump coal into it). I have some pictures attached of my setup for you to reference.
All throughout the upstairs, we have electric baseboard heat, which the previous homeowner has been using for years. We used the electric baseboard heat our first winter in the house (we moved in last November), and the bills were $200-$300/month. Not cool! At the time, I was not very keen about trying to fire up the coal stove, and didn't really know anything about heating with coal, so we used what was easy.
I do not know the last time this coal stove was used. I am not much of a "do it yourselfer", but am always willing to try things out. I really, really like the idea of coal heat and I think we have an ideal setup already in place with the coal bin & chimney. Long term, we want to finish our basement and make it a nice large living space. I've been reading about the coal stoker stoves that have large hoppers to hold a lot of coal & automatically feed the coal to achieve a temperature, and I love the idea. I am 99% sure this is what I want to do, and I want to save up money to purchase a nice coal stove and finish our basement by next summer. Then we will be prepared to go full gear next winter (right before the rate caps on electricity in PA are lifted and my bills go up 40-50%!).
However, in the mean-time, I am thinking about trying to use the existing coal stove this winter. It seems ideal and cheap. At the very least, I want to try it out and get some experience. I have a few questions though:
- How do I verify that everything is safe with the coal stove and chimney setup? Is there some sort of inspection I should get? What would that be called (so I know what to ask for)?
- How do I light this stove? If you can tell from the pictures, it's a tall coal stove with no way that I can tell to access the base. It seems like you just have to dump the coal in.
- From the picture below, how many tons of coal do you think I could fit in our coal bin?
- Roughly...how many tons of coal would you estimate I would burn in 1 Pennsylvania winter, keeping the house at 71 or 72 degrees with a Coal-Trol thermostat? It's roughly 8' x 5'.
Now I am also thinking about how I would setup my house in the long term to best heat the house. When I refinish the basement and put in the nice stoker stove, I will have access to run vents to all of the rooms in the house. Is the best way to get consistent heat by doing the "direct vent" method? I'm not exactly sure how that would work. I assume you would still need to attach the stoker stove to the chimney, and then also to the vent somehow? I'm sure you can tell I'm new to all this (and home heating in general).
I'm sure I will have more questions but I don't want to overwhelm anyone more than I already have! Thanks very much in advance for any help and guidance you can provide.

Finally, a Bluetooth-Laser Pointer-Flashlight
In the world of consumer technology, there's certainly a payoff in being the "world's first" anything.
Of course being the world's first in anything useful is a difficult feat, which is seemingly the exact reason why things like "the world's first 3-in-1 Bluetooth headset with laser pointer and LED flashlight" are born. And it always helps to have companies like Brando pushing technologies to their illogical conclusion.
The logic behind BluePOINTER, a combination Bluetooth headset and laser pointer, is that they're both office-related technologies, and therefore it sort of makes sense to have them in one centralized location. You can take a call and then point to something on a PowerPoint presentation. Just don't expect to complete both of these tasks simultaneously without a lot of clever maneuvering.
"Having paired the BluePOINTER with a HID profile supported PC, you can remotely scroll your PC presentation," says Brando.
The reasoning behind the inclusion of the LED flashlight on the other hand seems to be a little less strategic. Once again, a quote directly from Brando: "The ultra-bright LED flashlight is a bonus unique feature." So there you have it.
The BluePOINTER 3-in-1 Bluetooth headset with laser pointer and LED flashlight is available now from Brando for $90.

Mr. Gellert was John Locke's science teacher at Cowin Heights High School. Mr. Gellert helped John after he was trapped in a locker, he noticed he was bleeding and suggested that they visit the nurse's office. While there, Gellert informed John that he had received a phone call from Portland and spoke with a Dr. Alpert from Mittelos Laboatories who were working with chemistry and new technologies. He informed Gellert that they were looking for bright, young minds and wanted to recruit John to their summer camp. John became frustrated at Gellert's offer stating that he wasn't a scientist, but a normal kid just like everyone else. Gellert rebutted his opinion, stating that although John wanted to be like everyone else, he wouldn't be the prom king, or the quarterback, that he couldn't be a super-hero, to which John replied by saying "Don't tell me what I can't do!".
