US 4674794 AAbstract
The front end of each side linkage of an ottoman thrusting/retracting pantograph linkage system for a motion chair is provided by a link, pivotally mounted to respective front end links at two vertically spaced sites. For each side, an ottoman mounting bracket is provided, having a generally vertical-plane flange and a transverse flange. The ottoman is secured to the two transverse flanges, and the vertical-plane flange, which extends below the transverse flange, is pivotally secured near its lower end to a corresponding lower end site on the pantograph front end links. The vertical-plane flanges of the ottoman-mounting brackets lie outboard of and in planes parallel to those of the respective front end links. A tension coil spring is provided at each side for tending to keep the ottoman positioned across the front edges of the front end links. But if, while the mechanism is being operated in a closing sense, the upper, rear edge of the ottoman encounters unusual resistance typical of someone or something being in the space through which the ottoman must move to fully retract, the ottoman will tiltingly release, against tensioning of the springs, permitting whatever is lodged, especially if it is animate, the opportunity and facility to escape, whereupon the springs will restore the ottoman to its normal disposition. By preference a stop is provided to limit tilting of the ottoman to about 90 degrees, in order to avoid damage to the springs which could occur were the ottoman to be intentionally tilted by a chair user's feet, e.g. so the user, while having the ottoman extended, could rest his or her feet against what, normally, is the backside of the ottoman.

In motion chairs which have an operating mechanism which includes side linkages that have respective pantograph (lazy-tong) linkage systems for thrusting and raising an ottoman (sometimes called a legrest or a footrest), when the mechanism is operated in one sense, and for lowering and stowing that ottoman when the mechanism is operated in an opposite sense, it is customary to mount the ottoman (which generally is a frontally upholstered and padded fairly rigid board), by bolting the ottoman directly to links, flanges or brackets which form corresponding forward ends of the respective pantograph linkage systems (including parallelogram linkage extensions which may be provided as parts of such linkage systems).
FIG. 1 is a small-scale perspective view of an electrically-operated motion chair having an ottoman and a sub-ottoman, the chair being shown with its ottoman in a fully raised and thrust condition. Although not especially apparent in this view, this motion chair is provided with the resiliently-releasing ottoman structure embodying the principles of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is an enlarged scale fragmentary side elevational view of the chair of FIG. 1, with upholstery omitted and some structure indicated schematically in order to emphasize details of the novel ottoman-mounting structure. The normal position of the mechanism and ottoman as the ottoman is almost fully retracted is indicated in full lines in this figure. The two sets of phantom lines of the same structure which also are shown in this figure indicate how the novel mechanism permits the ottoman to become progressively resiliently biased away from the usual position, should a person or article (who or which is not supposed to be there) occupy the envelope of space through which the ottoman would normally move while being retracted.
The drawings show a typical motion chair 10, especially but not essentially one having its upholstered seat frame 12 mounted to a base by an ottoman thrusting/retracting mechanism 14 (which could also be one constructed and arranged for reclining the chair backrest relative to the chair seat/arm frame and/or for inclining an inner upholstered seat frame relative to an outer, stationary frame), that is motorized, so that manual actuation of the conveniently located switch 16 will serve to extend and retract the pantograph linkage systems 18 of the respective side linkages of the mechanism 14, e.g. by an electric motor-type linear actuator 58 e.g. mounted between a cross-member of the mechanism 14 and a cross member of the base.
As shown, an ottoman 20 is provided at the front ends of the pantograph linkage systems 18 of the mechanism 14, but, in accordance with the principles of the present invention it is mounted to these linkage systems in an unusual way.
A purpose of the special mounting for the main ottoman in accordance with principles of the present invention is to attempt to reduce the chances that should a lodgement occur in this space, or nevertheless occur in the space between the main ottoman and the sub-ottoman, the lodged creature will be able more easily to withdraw without significant injury, or even if inanimate or otherwise unable or unwilling to withdraw will not be placed in a garroting grip between the closing ottoman and the sub-ottoman or chair front.
According to principles of the present invention, instead of an ottoman mounting flange being directly pivotally mounted to the front ends 26, 28 of the respective bars 30, 32 of the respective pantograph linkage systems 18 of the mechanism 14, a connecting link 34 is pivotally mounted there, e.g. by respective transverse, horizontal axis pivot joints 36, 38. The links 34 may each be simple, flat links oriented in vertical planes. As shown, each link 34 extends a substantial distance below its lower pivot joint 36. Each link 34 is shown provided near the lower end thereof with a transverse, horizontal axis pivot joint 40 by which it is connected with the closely-outboard vertical plane flange 42 of an ottoman mounting bracket 44. The latter also has a transverse flange 46, which preferably is bent at right angles to the respective flange 42, and projects inboards.
Further, although the present inventor certainly prefers so designing, constructing and installing the electrical operation mechanism that the travel-to-close obtainable from the electric motor is sufficient to fully retract and stow the ottoman without causing damage by attempting to pull the ottoman further towards the chair, the ottoman mounting structure provided in accordance with principles of the present invention will accomodate a small amount of attempted overretraction. And, unlike the apparatus of the prior art, this accomodation is accomplished by resilient tilting displacemnt of the ottoman, with its brackets, so that the usual position is disturbed as little as necessary, and is automatically re-achieved as the motor is next operated to again thrust the ottoman.
The term `chair`, has been used herein in a generic sense, inasmuch as the principles of the invention can be used on any similar unit of seating furniture, regardless of whether it is free-standing, or incorporated in some larger item, such as a loveseat or couch.
It should now be apparent that the resiliently releasing ottoman for motion chair as described hereinabove, possesses each of the attributes set forth in the specification under the heading "Summary of the Invention" hereinbefore. Because it can be modified to some extent without departing from the principles thereof as they have been outlined and explained in this specification, the present invention should be understood as encompassing all such modifications as are within the spirit and scope of the following claims.

Saved by Grace: The sum and substance of all theology
The Sum and Substance of All TheologyUnpublished Notes of a Sermon
hat a difference there is between the words of Christ, and those of all mere men! Most men speak many words, yet say but little; Christ speaks few words, yet says very much. In modern books, you may read scores of pages, and scarcely come across a new thought; but when Christ speaks, every syllable seems to tell. He hits the nail on the head each time He lifts the hammer of His Word. The Words of Christ are like ingots of solid gold; we preachers too often beat out the gold so thin, that whole acres of it would scarcely be worth a farthing. The Words of Christ are always to be distinguished from those of His creatures, not only for their absolute truthfulness, but also for their profound fulness of matter. In all His language He is "full of grace and truth." Look at the text before us. Here we have, in two small sentences, the sum and substance of all theology. The great questions which have divided the Church in all ages, the apparently contradictory doctrines which have set one minister of Christ against his fellow, are here revealed so simply and plainly, "that he may run that readeth" (Habakkuk ii.2). Even a child may understand the Words of Christ, though perhaps the loftiest human intellect cannot fathom the mystery hidden therein.

Batman: The Animated Series, “I Am The Night” | Tales To Enrage
« Batman: The Animated Series, “What is Reality?”
Batman: The Animated Series, “Off Balance” »
Batman: The Animated Series, “I Am The Night”
This will be a fine improvement over “What is Reality!” This is a classic! This is a bravura performance on every level! A triumph of the animation form that dwarfs all other things! Except….not quite. “I Am The Night” is a very good episode of the animated series, and rightly deserves to be remembered fondly, for a number of reasons. But it’s not perfect, and shouldn’t be seen as such.
The episode starts with Batman sitting on a throne of stone, looking for all the world like a villain, brooding on his latest defeat. It’s a great visual, but it’s still weird to see him sitting there. Especially since he ends up being full of ennui about his efforts, bemoaning to Alfred that there’s no real victory in his war on crime, or a lasting peace. Of course, you could argue that he should have known that going in, and it’s crazy to expect that even the most dedicated efforts would stop crime for good. (You could argue the same thing about the real life “war on crime” and “war on drugs” efforts, but thankfully this episode doesn’t make those kinds of explicit comparisons. I say thankfully because their analysis would probably just be “Drugs are bad! Don’t do them, kids!”) But he’s not complaining that things are hard, or no one appreciates him. He just feels that nothing he’s done has had a lasting impact. He’s wrong, but it’s hard to fight that creeping sense of futility.
Batman cuts the conversation short to go out and honor his parents, which would also fit in with his gloom. Meanwhile, Commissioner Gordon is waiting with a police force for Batman for a raid on a gangster’s meeting. Batman and Leslie Tompkins meet up for a far too short scene about his feelings of uselessness, interrupted by Batman saving a con artist from two low level criminals. This apparently takes 7 hours, causing him to be late to the raid, which Gordon initiates early so they don’t lose their chance at catching all the gangsters in one fell swoop. Now, they don’t actually say it takes 7 hours, but in the episode that establishes this tradition with Batman and his parents, the time he arrives is at 8 PM. When he leaves Leslie Tompkins, she says it’s nearly 3 AM. So there’s a major time discrepancy there that never gets address. And no, that’s not the reason this isn’t the best episode ever, but it’s something that bugs me now that I’ve noticed it.
Batman helps to take down the mobsters so the police can actually catch them, but in the confusion, Gordon got shot and is in critical condition. Naturally, Batman takes this very hard, and no matter who tries to console him (including Barbara Gordon), he blames himself. He even briefly says he’s done being Batman, until Robin tells him that the man who shot Gordon has escaped from prison, and is probably going to finish the job. I’m not going to spoil exactly what happens next, but let’s just say Batman wins.
As far as stories go, this is…well, not a cliche, exactly, but a lot of superheroes have moments where they say they’re giving it up, for one reason or another, often involving protecting the people they love. There are two smart moves they make with this episode. The first is that they take time to establish that Batman is already feeling low. This isn’t something that just engulfs him when Commissioner Gordon is shot, and it works better because of it. The other is Batman’s subsequent conversation with Robin, where we get to hear the other side of it. Batman talks about how he chose his life, and that he knows someone will eventually kill him. But while he can let that happen to himself, he can’t allow anyone else to die because of him. Of course, it’s a bit egotistical for him to think he’s directly responsible for Gordon being shot, considering he’s a cop, and probably didn’t need to be at the bust that night to begin with. Thankfully, Robin is on hand to make that same argument. He’s often the character intended to bring some lightness to the whole Batman franchise, so it’s nice to see him doing the same here, even if it’s not through wisecracks and a colorful costume.
The one substantial issue I had with the episode was the animation, and I’ll freely admit that I’m nitpicking here, because it’s not a huge issue; it’s certainly a big step up from the last episode. But there was still a hint of strange movement to the characters that threw things off, and pulled me out a little. You could also argue that things resolve too neatly at the end, with Batman being convinced too easily to put the suit back on, but I don’t think that’s a real problem; it’s inevitable that he’d go back to being Batman, so it’s better to do it in one episode than try to stretch it out into a two parter. Besides, as much as I like the show’s portrayal of Bruce Wayne, that doesn’t mean I want to watch a whole episode of Sad Bruce Wayne over Batman.
The ending thought is pretty simple: go watch this. It’s a great standalone episode (well, for the most part-the Leslie Thompkins part might be confusing if you didn’t see her first appearance), and makes for a great examination of Batman and his thought process, even if it doesn’t dig too deeply. Then again, it was a kid’s cartoon. Scratching the surface was a better idea than plumbing the depths of Bruce Wayne’s psychology.

Destructoville - Population:1: Flailing.
On an earnings conference call with analysts Wednesday, Hastings said Netflix now has no plans to spend any marketing dollars on its DVD-by-mail service, which lost 2.76 million subscribers during the last three months of 2011. "We expect DVD subscribers to decline each quarter forever," he said. When the Qwikster plans were announced, Netflix also said it would add video games to its DVD-by-mail business. But Hastings said the company has given up on that plan as well.

Scelata: I Wanna Wedding in a BIG Church, Withe BRIDES-maids and FLOWer Girls, a Lotta Ushers in...
I Wanna Wedding in a BIG Church, Withe BRIDES-maids and FLOWer Girls, a Lotta Ushers in...
It is no secret that fewer and fewer Catholics in this county do NOT want a "church wedding," big or otherwise, any more than they want the other sacraments.
The Nominally Catholic Rundown has the tale of two young couples who have bucked the trend, despite the "barriers" thrown up by the Church.
Putting aside the specifics of their stories for the moment, what really stayed with me after reading it was a nagging question of whether the required marriage prep isn't making for more failed marriages rather than fewer.
Now wait, hear me out - I know it is counter-intuitive, but could it be, nonetheless true?
I'm not speaking of those couples who marry licitly, but of those who, repelled by, or too indolent or impatient to submit to, the processes we ask of them, the 6 months, the FOCUS instruments, the pre-Cana...
I don't know the stats, but I am sure these are they whose marriages have the worst chance of making it, of keeping them together for the long haul.
So aren't they the very ones most in need of the supernatural graces that God endows them with in the sacrament?
Do we or do we not believe that something happens, actually, objectively, in the administration of sacraments? something beyond our power to understand, much less to deserve?
An unmerited sharing in God's own love, His power to love.
The rest of the Church supplies the form, but the man and the woman themselves are the matter, are they not?
And if they can be made to understand and acknowledge and supply the intent - well, isn't the consequent grace they then receive going to be a much greater aid to them than any knowledge they might have gained from the questionnaire that they balked at?
I feel nearly the same about people who ask for baptism for their children, without giving the parish enough hope that they will actually raise their child in the Faith.
Do we or do we not believe in sanctifying grace? a grace that an infant receives and by which he is strengthened, regardless of his ... oh, of his two mothers intentions and beliefs?
I'm sure I'm looking at this whole thing in the wrong way, and am eager to be instructed.

Divergence in the approach to tumor necrosis factor α-inhibitor recipients with coccidioidomycosis — Mayo Clinic
Ashley L. Garrett, Stephen S. Cha, Elizabeth Wack, Janis E. Blair
Background: Tumor necrosis factor α-inhibitors (TNFIs) have been associated with increased risk of certain fungal infections, including coccidioidomycosis. The optimal treatment approach to coccidioidomycosis in TNFI recipients is unknown. Methods: We constructed an anonymous, voluntary survey for practicing pulmonary and infectious disease physicians in the state of Arizona regarding approach to TNFI patients with coccidioidomycosis. Results: There is no current consensus on managing these patients. Conclusions: Further research is necessary to determine the optimal approach to TNFI recipients with coccidioidomycosis.

Unknown-ness: I've never heard of this, but I love the cover. The hot, neon colors, the angular "glasses" over the eyes, the angular logo, and the suits with thin ties scream new wave, yet I get the feeling that this will be an album full of disco-like R&B. Perhaps it is the song titles and lengths. Maybe it will be a cross between the two genres. All I know, is that I had to buy this once I saw it.
Album Review: So Watson and Beasley are the two main performer’s last names…and here I had them under “B” when they should be “W.” Change made. There is not much on the interwebs about this duo. They approach disco from a pop/rock standpoint, incorporating rock guitars and some new-wavish synth effects. The album seems to have been re-released on CD in 2006. Alfred Beasley is now a preacher and still into music as a way of getting his message across, and was an award winning drummer when he went to Tennessee State.
“Darlin I” starts with a new wave edge: guitars and some bouncy synth piano. The female vocals begin and are rich, and produced with a disco flair. The power chords continue throughout the song, as does the piano buried in the back of the track. The steady marching drum gives a feeling of confidence. The male vocals support the lead, and are just as high in pitch. In the middle of the song, the bass line becomes bouncy and is combined with a spastic synth whistling flutter that adds more of a disco element. The guitar becomes a bigger part of the song in the later half, jamming out with miniature solos toward the end and as the song fades out.
“Body Free” has a simple two note drum beat in the beginning, and is layered over with some synth effects that propel the dance tempo forward into the realm of disco. The bass beat is confident and the space-age synth effects glisten in the background. The backing harmonized female vocals in the chorus come in to support the powerful lead. The thing about these tracks are that they are catchy and designed to repeat in order to create an anticipatable dance routine. So once they hit upon their sturdy hook, they cycle out as long as they can, and end in fades.
“Dimensions” has an angelic choir of Ahhh-ahhs and swirling harps for the first 45 seconds. Then a hip slow dance melody takes form with the harps and male vocals gently glide over the slow jam. The song slowly picks up the pace and by the second half of the song, it finds its feet as a shuffling dance groove.
“Helpless” is a steady bouncy bass line under a single strummed jangley note. The soulful female vocals carry the song along the disco melody. A backing choir of female vocals takes the production back to a comparison to Supremes or Ronettes.
“Breakaway” was the big single that came out with lots of remixes. It immediately jumps up and down with a no nonsense driving tempo and jittery melody. The production of the vocals and backing vocals paired with the looping bass line places the song firmly in the disco category. With a different execution of the vocals, this could easily have been a nervous new wave hit. Each section has its own distinct twist on a common hook. In the breakdown section toward the end, the bass line quits displaying the drum beat and some twinkling synth chimes like shooting stars.
“Don't Let Your Chance Go Bye” was also a single. It is a little funkier; with a bass groove that steps wider across the music landscape. The vocals are multi layered like a choir, and it jumps right into what sounds like the chorus. The tempo is not as driving, and gives way for slower and slicker disco dance moves. The happy groove is enhanced by an upbeat precise guitar section.
“Fantasy Island” begins with a windy effect, and some show tune guitars with a jazzy progressive beat. The choir of vocals acts like another instrument in the beginning, but once the solo female vocals begin, they take on an organic, loungey path of their own. This reminds me a little of Sunshower by Dr Buzzard’s Original Savannah band.
“What's On My Mind” embraces new wave with a sinister, metallic synth beat. Then a piano is introduced, and the high female vocals ease in, giving balance to the original notes. This is a toe tapping disco song, with simple, repetitive musical support and a constant stomping drum beat. The shady synth melody returns, combated with power guitar chords, but it quickly resumes the disco distinction, utilizing the chorus of female vocals in backing support of the lead in the chorus. Toward the end it is a call and response between the female lead, and the high male vocals. But the dark two note bass beat never rests.

stupid by…well…just stupid
This is a local NY Metro story so you may not have heard anything about this….
Seems a young woman in the area was walking down the street and texting on her device when she fell into an open manhole. She is planning on suing the city. Her reason, and I quote..”if there had been an orange cone there I would have seen that.”
Oh yeah? Prove it, Moron. Another blow against personal responsibility. Maybe we should have hands free walking since we’ve already crossed into the realm of brain-free walking. I don’t know about you but if you aren’t going to pay attention to what you’re doing, for whatever reason, you’re going to have to accept the consequences. Period. End of story. No matter what some Brooks Brothers clad legal scumbag may have to say about it. What if she hadn’t been texting? What if she was looking at the sky, or the birds, or the sun…oh, right…that would mean putting her phone down for 5 minutes, or perhaps talking to another human being face to face. We certainly can’t be having any of that.
BTW, she was not hurt. Humiliated maybe by falling into the sewage line, which she described as “really gross”. What if she was texting and just tripped on a stick or raised piece of sidewalk and was serioously hurt…is that the city’s fault as well? Should there have been an open manhole without some sort of warning? Of course not, I’m not completely insensitive. But that is not an open excuse to play the legal Wheel of Fortune to seek monetary reward for no injury.

She is just another in a long line of people wanting to cash in on the victimhood lottery.
The story does point out a bigger looming problem…there have been a few reports of transit workers texting on the job, some with deadly results. Texting while driving may eventually exceed DUI (or DWI in some states) as one of the leading causes of death, injury and property damage.

Satan’s Lies in Plain Clothes – Part III | hespelerbaptist
Posted by hespelerbaptist ⋅ February 23, 2012	⋅ Leave a comment
Filed Under dennis mccallum, lies, satan, truth	If you’ve been tracking the last couple of days we’ve been looking at 20 normal sounding arguments we’ve maybe convinced ourselves are true but in reality come from the pit. If you need to catch up you can read Part I here and Part II here. If, as you read any of these, you sense your defences quickly rising it’s likely your flesh resisting truth you don’t want to acknowledge. If that’s the case, time to probe farther. If, as you read these, there’s absolutely no way you see yourself in them, you’re probably in even greater danger. Still waters run deep and the same is true of sin. If none of this pricks the conscience the reality is that you’ve bought into certain lies so much you don’t realize how deeply entrenched they are. Take this as a serious warning then ask God to search you and know you and reveal any offensive way in you.
11. If you keep listening to this talk about surrendering all for God, you’re going to miss incredible opportunities that may never come again. Your career is going to suffer irreversibly. You’re going to miss the love of your life. You’re going to become a fanatic and a weirdo. You’re on the verge of robbing yourself of real happiness. You’ve got to take a more moderate position in spiritual matters. We’re not talking about denying God here, just more sense of balance in life.
12. So what if you hate that sister in Christ? She’s got it coming, and no sane person could possibly react any other way. Besides, you’re not saying you would never forgive her. You can think about it when she comes to grovel and finally acknowledge what she’s done.
13. If you keep serving so regularly, you’re going to be all used up! Start looking out for yourself – you don’t want to burn out.
14. It’s one thing to talk about trusting God, but you’re facing real dangers here. Don’t be stupid! Of course God wants you to take measures to secure your future. You’re not in some fantasy world – this is real life! You’ve got to start taking life into your own hands.
15. Your plan to go and admonish your friend about an area of sin is unwise. First, who do you think you are? Is your life so pure that you should go around trying to set others straight? Isn’t that a little arrogant? Who’s casting the first stone here? Besides, if you think about it, you’ll see abundant evidence that he’ll never listen anyway – he’ll probably retaliate, maybe even dangerously. Look, people have to move at their own pace, and if God wanted him to see this he would make it clear himself. If someone should go and say something, aren’t there plenty of others who would be way more capable than you? Maybe you should just mind your own business.
15 down 5 to go.

I like your perceptions on our political choices right now. I agree with your thoughts. We have a very important choice for our future, and more important our children and grand children’s futures. We have to make the right choice.

Thank you for your comments, Dr. Smiley. You hit the nail on the head. Four more years of “business as usual” in Washington I’m afraid will damage this country irreparably.

Dear Wines Families. Here is the news for the week!
Run-a-Thon Success!!!
Last Friday was another FANTASTIC Run-a-Thon success. The kids had a great time, the weather was perfect, and everything went off without a hitch. I want to extend a thank you to all of our volunteers who made the day possible. I want to give a special HUGE thank you to Katie Fife who organized this year’s event. We had a sudden leadership change for the Run-a-Thon this fall and we needed a new point person. Katie has been involved with Run-a-Thon for a number of years taking on the incredibly challenging job of getting the t-shirts produced and distributed (a monumental task). This year, Katie stepped up in pinch and took the entire event on (and still handled the shirts!). THANK YOU Katie!
WE NEED YOUR RUN-A-THON PLEDGES
While the event is behind us, we are still actively collecting Run-a-Thon pledges. We want EVERY student to collect something. Any amount helps. The Run-a-Thon pledge packet went home a couple weeks ago and pledges can be made online easily at https://squareup.com/market/wines-elementary-school-pto/item/run-a-thon-donation-1.
If you are sending the link to friends and family, be sure to tell them your child’s teacher so it can be indicated at checkout.

Online orders will be accepted through Monday, October 30. Spirit Wear orders will be delivered to students prior to Thanksgiving break.

Thanks to everyone who participated in International Walk to School Day today. We had a great turnout. As a reminder, we will walk each Friday beginning this week for the month of October. Here is the news for this week:
The monthly Wines Times newsletter is ready. Please click on the link below for all of this month’s news from our PTO.
http://winespto.org/docs/WTOct2017.pdf
Run-a-Thon is next Friday!!
Our annual Run-a-Thon is next Friday morning. In your child’s Wednesday Folder today, you will find the paper copy of the pledge forms. Pledges can also be made online at https://squareup.com/market/wines-elementary-school-pto/item/run-a-thon-donation-1. Please share the online pledge form for out of town friends and family! The Run-a-Thon is one of them most exciting days of the year and is also one of our few main fundraisers. We hope everyone can participate in collecting pledges.
The next seven school days will be special spirit days. Tomorrow, Thursday, we will kick off our Run-a-Thon with a pep rally at the end of the day. We are asking any student who has a Run-a-Thon t-shirt from previous years to wear their shirt on Thursday. On Friday, we will celebrate the Michigan/MSU rivalry and if kids are fans of either team, we want them to show their team pride (I hope the maize and blue is more prevalent!).
Next week we will have our annual Spirit Week as we prepare for Run-a-Thon. The days are:
Friday: Run-a-Thon (all students receive a t-shirt and classrooms will have unique themes).
We had a great first day of Walktober today. We will now walk each Friday this month.

With October almost here (not that it feels like it!), our annual Walktober tradition continues. We will encourage kids to walk to school each Friday in October and we will kick of the celebration next week on Wednesday as we celebrate International Walk to School Day. We will again have the school busses drop off at the south Forsythe lot and I will meet the kids there along with morning care students so everyone can participate.
Reminder: Girl Scout Meeting Tomorrow
Just a reminder that tomorrow is the Wines Girl Scout information meeting in the multi-purpose room at 6:30. Bring your family for information on Girl Scouts at Wines (Daisies K-1, Brownies 2-3 & Juniors 4-5), eat some GS cookies, play with other Girl Scouts & learn about what we do!

Dear Wines Families.
Now that we are into our third week of school, I have a number of announcements today. I try not to have my weekly message be quite so long, but there is a lot to talk about today!
• Tuesday, Sept. 26th. PTO Meeting. 6:00 New Family Orientation and General Meeting. 7:00 Executive Board Meeting. Free childcare is provided at all PTO meetings.
• Wednesday, Sept. 27th: Early Release Day. Dismissal at 1:29. Students will eat lunch at school. There is no PM childcare.
• Tuesday, Oct. 3rd. Picture Day. Information is coming home today in the Wednesday Folder. You can order online at inter-state.com/order. The unique order code for Wines Elementary School is 19156CF.
Wednesday Folder Items:
In your child’s folder today, you will see a card with their student number. This number is not used a lot at the elementary level, but as kids enter middle school, the parent portal for PowerSchool is used more often and the number is needed for that. In addition, the student number is necessary if you choose to pay online for lunch at www.mypaymentsplus.com.
4th and 5th grade parents, the state MSTEP parent report will be in your child’s folder today as well.
We’ve noticed a large number of students who are dropped off at school very early in the morning. Please note that school does not start until 8:53 and we do not have supervision until 8:45. Please do not drop students off before this time.
Robin is putting the finishing touches on the annual family directory. If you chose not to be included in the directory on your enrollment application, your information will not be included. Included information will be parent cell phone, email, and home phone (if you have a land line!). If you chose not to be included when you registered, but now wish to be included or if you would not like to be included and didn’t indicate that during online enrollment, please contact Robin at moorero@aaps.k12.mi.us.

We are starting floor hockey early this year. We will start THIS FRIDAY at 8:15 AM. We will play through Thanksgiving and then take a break until after winter break when we will re-start. Parents are welcome to play!
It's nearly October which means Walktober is going to be starting very soon. Every Friday (rain or shine) during the month of October we encourage your child to walk or bike to school. Walktober will actually kick off on Wednesday, Oct. 4th in celebration of International Walk to School Day and then follow each Friday during October. We will have a few check in point's for your child to have their hand stamped to show they have taken part - more details to follow.
