Shadha is the most populous planet in the sector, hosting billions of people (the exact population is not known). It is a desert world with a lower tech level than the neighboring and smaller world of Ezkurra. Overpopulation, desertification and economic turmoil have left the people of Shadha stranded without any hope of space travel.
Massive transparent globes dot the landscape as testament to the long failed terraforming efforts of pre-tech settlers. Cacti and the occasional stubborn tree lay between massive dunes and people eek out a living in the barren landscape by trading space junk and moisture farming. Up in the sky Ezkurra and Radiah the much smaller sister planets can be seen, the lights dotting Ezkurra's surface making it look more akin to a spherical space station. Ezkurra is a nearby pleasure planet where the social elite of the system live. Factory ships can be seen flying overhead, constantly leaving and returning with composites and raw materials. The occasional smoking hulk can be seen ungracefully crashing to the surface in one of the many scrap yards run by [Sunbeam Multistellar] that line the singular radioactive lake on the surface.

Obama's Right-Wing School Reform | The New York Review of Books.
I wonder what people think of this article (HT to @Thanks2Teachers via Twitter for bringing it to my attention). Please share your thoughts:
I have been disappointed with what feels like a pretty conservative approach to education reform. *To clarify, I mean conservative in the 'slow, cautious, playing-it-safe' way, not as a ideological label for a group of people (i.e. the political opposite of 'liberal.')* Also disappointing: support for early childhood remains insufficient, continuing to follow the 'table scraps' model of funding.
I don't know anything about this author, Diane Ravitch. Her headline is sensational. She's marketing a book. But she also seems to make some sound points. I wish she had provided some examples of possible solutions among her list of complaints and criticisms. This piques my ongoing issue with educators: a great deal of willingness to discuss problems, but little action toward solving those problems. This is not a personal criticism of Ravitch, and may not be consistent with her record – I will have to do some reading before making that determination. Perhaps there are solutions discussed in her book.
She does note that she is seeking leadership outside of herself – political leadership. If she finds that leadership, I wonder how she would participate. How do any of us engage with leaders who have taken up our cause? How can educators really be the change we want to see in the world?
Thoughts? Discuss!

Opening Ceremonies and Keynote
We started off right with a dance party! After the dancing lights formed into a Kool and the Gang conga line around the room, we all settled down and enjoyed our cupcakes (the electric tea lights were brought in atop cupcakes) while the keynote speaker began.
"Good leaders lead with the heart." This was a recurring theme in the keynote address given by John Graham, a former diplomat and mountaineer turned philanthropist. Graham is the spokesperson for Giraffe Heroes Project, an organization that encourages people to "stick their necks out for the common good."
We've been hearing a lot of giraffe-related metaphors today as a result.
Graham is not of the early childhood field, but appears to understand the qualities that make for good leaders are required for all leaders, whatever or whomever they lead – like ability to use intuition, to build trust, and to have vision. Regarding vision – he is quick to explain that vision is not code for dreams and fantasies, but rather a visualization of real goals and plans. A kind of projection of the future. According to Graham, "A vision is a great North Star – a vision is a great source of guidance… It inspires. It's glue…" He talks about using vision as a planning tool for groups working together, reminding us to use heart to guide visioning, not just brain and thinking; non-profits often start with goals and objectives, and he urges them to start with vision.
He touched on a lot of values that feel very spiritual to me, and in such an amicable, straightforward kind of way. I appreciate his approach. Even if he's not familiar with the details of early childhood leadership, he gets leadership. He gets the humanity required to lead and to make meaning, which he boils down to service and making life better. I believe in my heart that leadership is a way to practice serving society and humanity.
Public Policy Forum
We the PPF took the form of a lecture/presentation (during which I tweeted a few salient points), followed by facilitated breakout discussions. The Forum Facilitators:
- Kay Albrecht of Innovations in Early Childhood Education
- Stacie Goffin of Goffin Strategy Group
- Luis Hernandez of Region IV Head Start
- Karen Ponder, an ECE Consultant
- Margie Wallen of the Ounce of Prevention Fund
The Public Policy Forum Keynote speaker was Sharon Lynn Kagan of Teachers College, Columbia University – today's recipient of the Visionary Award. Her talk was called Advancing ECE2: Early Childhood Education [ece] and its Quest for Equity, Coherence, and Excellence [ECE]. Very clever title. Kagan stridently puts forth a number of ideas about how she thinks early care and education should be moving forward in terms of policy on the national level. During the breakout sessions, we discussed what she referred to as '8 Bold Steps' that could be taken. I'll have to find a link to her website so that people can read about that in detail, as we did not get handouts for that session. One of the 8 Bold Steps was to change how we credential ECE professionals. There is ongoing discussion, debate and some tension about how to appropriately require educators to obtain the proper knowledge base to do their jobs effectively and well. Research tells us that quality of education improves if teachers hold degrees, but Kagan points out that she isn't convinced that there is a big difference in quality between those who have 2 or 4 year degrees.
Addressing AA vs. BA – Kagan commented that she doesn't want to excise or price-out diversity among our practitioners. She says we need to develop a system where educators function like nurses and demonstrate skills, irrespective of the degree. They would take a competency-based exam. I think this is a really good idea. It sets a consistent standard for quality service provision, but allows for more variety of educators. Kagan says she also wants a credential that has national recognition and is transferable from state to state.
In a lot of ways, she seems to want the moon. In a lot of ways, I agree with her; It's about time we started acting like we deserve the moon in early childhood. We've gotten way too comfortable with the assumption that we'll never get what we need, so we often don't bother to aim high. Kagan is aiming crazy high, but her aims might be crazy like a fox.
This topic got a lot of attention during the break out session that I participated in. I chose the session facilitated by Kay Albrecht, and she had us jump right in and hit the ground running. It was a bit much – lots of people talking about a lot of topics. My favorite moment during the breakout session was when the event photographer chimed in: Apparently, he is a retired high school administrator. He told us that he believes that what ECE professionals do is very important, and the effects of our work could be seen in the children he worked with. Too bad he's not working anymore – it figures that when I finally hear someone from the high school side of things acknowledge that, they're retired. I'm glad he spoke up, though.
Anyway, it was a good session, and Kay Albrecht is an excellent facilitator. I will definitely be following up on Lynn Kagan's work, and I hope that she can get more educators on board with advocacy engagement. That's my pet soapbox at these ECE events: We've got to get involved in advocacy! Let's be activists! Stop complaining to each other and start demanding change!
Then we had delicious hors d'ourves and very nice jazz music during the networking reception, where I caught up with some old acquaintances and talked more with new friends before retiring to my room for a little time with my family. My amazing husband has done a lot to make it possible for me to attend this conference, and I am very grateful for his sacrifices and accommodations. I'm drinking lots of water!
I'd love to hash it all out even more, but the Westin Hotel Heavenly Bed is calling me. More tomorrow: Skill-Building Clinics, and the Friday Evening Champions for Change Dinner! More to come…

Because I am essentially a big nerd, I envisioned that the 57th Street Bookstore would be teeming with early childhood enthusiasts. I feared that if my friend and I arrived any later than 5:30 pm, we would have to squeeze through a standing-room-only crowd to get a decent vantage of the visiting author, and that I'd have to wait forever to get a book signed, if there were even any copies of the book left. I am pleased to say that while the event was well-attended, my anxiety was unwarranted. And it was a lovely time listening to Vivian Gussin Paley talk about children, stories and relationships.
While there was no throng of early childhood practitioners, I set out to buy my books before the talk, so I could have them signed afterward without too much waiting (besides being rather averse to waiting in lines myself, I was accompanied by my 11 month old son, who might not tolerate waiting after an hour-long lecture/reading). As I approached the book table, Ms. Paley walked into the room with her husband. Yay! Almost immediately she engages me, the conversation starting with Duncan (my son), and moving on to the topic of the early childhood job market and what's going on with the Illinois state budget. I mention how she was the honored guest at my masters degree commencement, trying my best not to sound like a groupie. She has that kind of unabashed openness that puts you at ease, and makes you feel like you are talking with someone you already know. I see my friend Rachael arrive, and I excuse myself go to purchase my copies of 'The Boy on the Beach,' and 'You Can't Say You Can't Play,' before the talk begins.
What strikes me most about listening to Paley describe what she sees and learns from observing children's play, is that she is able to articulate the value of play in a way that relays the essential humanity of it. I attended a luncheon presentation once, sponsored by the Alliance for Childhood, where the speaker was a woman who teaches children to play for a living. She expressed her frustration at the limited understanding people generally have for the importance of play; how play skills are taken for granted and her work is often gently dismissed with "Well isn't that nice?" when she thinks of herself as advocating for a human rights issue. Vivian Paley gets it, and she explains it rather elegantly. During her talk, she discussed how children, in play, offer and accept roles from each other, building relationships through the mutual acceptance of each other's stories. Talking about loneliness, or "the dark spot of children going to school," Paley explains how "one piece of dialog makes a friend out of a stranger." What great, simple tools for educators to use! So much of intentional instruction and guidance of children is just this: knowing how to sculpt education and growth out of what already occurs. She encourages us to make way for conversations that will happen among children, and to see why those conversations- facilitated in imaginative play- are essential to children building relationships, and building community among each other. Another favorite quote along those lines: "With play, a young child figures out a way to be necessary to the group."
Of course, the kind of play that Paley is talking about takes a lot of time and space created by adults. The rich soil of great play is being eroded by time constraints, testing expectations and didactic instruction, and we talked about that. Paley presented us with the metaphor of "Play is a Play," and stated that we are cutting that performance somewhere between Acts II and III. She challenges us to consider what happens in classrooms where play is cut off before Act III emerges, before the story the children are weaving reaches its logical or necessary conclusions. What is lost when we cut these stories short?
When she opened the floor for questions, a person brought up digital media and how it creates disconnection, encourages short attention span, etc. Naturally we talked about how preparing for assessments dominates a lot of classroom time. I have to admit a mild lack of patience for these parts of Q&A sessions, because there is a tendency among educators to begin a lot of hand-wringing and wondering aloud why no one listens to us. A lot of time can be spent complaining about ways that our collective store of knowledge is ignored. I don't mean to say that venting frustrations is a waste of time, but doing it while Vivian Gussin Paley is sitting there, willing to answer questions, would be a wasted opportunity. My solution to this problem is to circumvent with a well-placed question about action and advocacy. My question: As the nation moves in the direction of more assessment-for-accountability and the conversation about common educational standards changes the perception of early childhood on the national stage, have you participated in any initiatives or activities to address prioritizing play in terms of policy and advocacy? Her answer: Engage parents in advocacy. She said the adult who is most easily reached regarding this topic is the parent, and that parents groups are the best groups to speak to in order to effect some change. Then, bringing it back to the educators she said, "Teachers can make more use of their parent groups than they have." There's a gentle challenge there, I think. There is often tension in the relationship between teacher and parent (reasonably so), and too often, even when good relationships exist between parents and educators, there can still be a pernicious Us v. Them mindset that prevents us from fully harnessing the power we could wield if we not only worked together, but advocated for each other (for example, how many parents have out there in Illinois have considered calling your legislator and speaking up to save teachers' jobs? How many teachers have contacted their state representative to support house bill 174 -or any legislation- on behalf of families?).
My friend Rachael, a teacher of at-risk pre-k and kindergarten asked a follow-up question asking what advice she had to give to teachers who are trying to preserve play in their classrooms when many are moving towards having common schedules for each grade level yet still want to advocate for play? and Paley responded "It can be done with more… like-minded help," encouraging Rachael to make more use of a community effort within her school, and find creative solutions to getting enough bodies in the classroom to support such an effort, like using older students to record story dictations. I appreciate Paley's suggestions to create more of a community effort within classrooms, however, I think sometimes teachers should be encouraged to advocate outside of the world of the classroom, which can be very insular and isolating. Play is unappreciated in institutions beyond individual schools or school districts, and we have to contend with more than principals and superintendents. Legislators, and others who influence policy can always stand to hear input from constituents who are educators. Some teachers may have to step outside of their comfort zones to affect change on a community-wide level.
I look forward to reading Paley's latest work, and benefiting from her insights. Her voice is an important one among advocates for play. I'm glad I got a second chance to hear her speak, and thank her for her words and wisdom.
Here is a great, easy-to-use advocacy tool for citizens of Illinois interested in supporting quality school environments and education jobs: NO TO 37.org. You fill in your info, and it not only locates you legislators BUT ALSO generates a message that you can edit with personal touches, and automatically send to all of them. Incredibly easy and fast.
The form also generates phone numbers for your personal senator and representative, and if you are in Chicago, the senator and rep for whichever CPS school you enter.
NO TO 37– Contact Your Legislators.
Keep in mind. personal letters and phone calls have the greatest impact on legislators. We all pay closer attention to a handwritten letter than a form letter. People think about how much effort you put into getting in touch with them. So if you have the time, go that extra mile – it will be appreciated!
But this is so easy that there's no reason not to, and if you follow up with a phone call or personal note, or office visit, so much the better.
NO TO 37– Contact Your Legislators
Every voice matters!

Early childhood programs receive public money primarily in the form of education and human services dollars. There is a complex filtration system that the money goes through, starting with government dollars, and at the end, flowing out to schools, child care subsidies, early intervention services and other public programs. This money pays for more than the cost of a child's pre-k tuition, or a physical therapy session. It pays for salaries of people who provide and coordinate those services. It pays for supplies that stock the buildings where these people work, and equipment used to support that work. It pays for some of the education required for workers to continue to do their jobs well, maintain certifications and uphold licensing requirements. It is an industry web comprising retail, business and repair, educational services, personal services (these are categories of industry according to the U.S. Census Bureau) and more. According to Illinois Action for Children's newly published report, Child Care & Early Education in the Cook County Economy (March, 2010):
- At least 40,867 full-time equivalent jobs are generated by the child care and early education industry in Cook County…
- Revenues of the child care and early education establishments in Cook County total approximately $1.2 billion.
- These revenues are from private families' purchases of child care and early education and from public purchases through programs such as the State of Illinois' Preschool for All program and the Illinois Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP).
Though it provides significant jobs and revenue, this network of people, places and things is supported with sparse public funding.
Illinois is now facing a budget deficit of 13 billion dollars. There has been ongoing, heated debate about whether or not to cut spending or increase revenue. The governor has proposed legislation to address taxes, as have several lawmakers. Governor Quinn's bill calls for a 1% income tax increase, in addition to significant cuts to education. Several advocacy interests have decried this bill as inadequate. The favorite bill among early childhood advocates is House Bill 174, introduced by Senator James T. Meeks and Representative David Miller. According to analysis by the Center for Tax and Budget Accountability, HB174
"effectively changes the Illinois tax structure in a number of ways. It would raise anywhere from $5.0 billion to $5.2 billion in new, recurring tax revenues, provide tax relief to homeowners and low income families, and provide additional funding for public schools, health and human services."
Early childhood advocates most likely support this bill because of the mixed nature of early childhood funding. This bill specifically addresses human services and education, which both support early childhood programs.
The Ounce of Prevention Fund Advocacy and Policy web pages describe cuts to early childhood education (click to see descriptions of effects on child care and early intervention funds):
Illinois is known as a national leader of the early childhood movement thanks to its early education system. The Early Childhood Block Grant funds Preschool for All for three- and four-year-olds, as well as high-quality child development and family support programs for at-risk infants, toddlers and their parents. However, several years of underfunding compounded by FY10's cuts and delayed payments have led to children being turned away from programs their families have come to rely on; program closures across the state; and unmet preschool access goals for our state's most at-risk children.
Summary of Governor's Proposal:
The Governor's proposed budget cuts state funding for education by $1.3 billion, a 17% reduction from FY10. This cut reflects the loss of funds provided by the federal stimulus program which will end this year (July 1, 2010). Within this plan, the Early Childhood Block Grant is cut by $54 million, a 16% reduction that mirrors the total cuts to education. The Governor's address called for a 1% income tax surcharge for education which would make up the gap left by the stimulus funds, restore the education budget to current levels, and restore funds from the delayed payment cycle. A powerful body of research clearly demonstrates the positive effects of early childhood development programs such as those provided by the Early Childhood Block Grant, both in the short- and long-term for the individuals who participate in them and society as a whole. Without new revenue for education, the short-term savings earned by budget cuts will cost more in the long-run as we spend more to fix the problems we could have prevented in the first place. Especially during difficult economic times, investing in our future – our children – is the smartest decision we can make.
The reason this is problematic and dangerous, as opposed to just being sad, is that people who are already struggling, and more vulnerable than most depend on these services as a safety net. This net can catch people before they fall into hunger, homelessness and desperation. Remove that net, and what do we have? Do the benefits outweigh the risks?
Such cuts spell big losses for Illinois' diverse early childhood programs. This is a particular shame, because while it is far from perfect, our early care and education system has some great features: Support to improve home-based child care quality, including quality enhancement for license-exempt providers; Preschool for All and Prevention Initiatives – programs that provide services for children up until the age of 4, designed to improve school readiness, based on research and best practices; well-established and influential Early Learning Council, and a set of Early Learning Standards that actually correspond with developmentally appropriate practice, developed in cooperation with early childhood professionals. Not to mention the firestorm of advocacy power and comprehensive programming found among Illinois Action for Children, Voices for Illinois Children and the Ounce of Prevention Fund – Illinois' early childhood policy experts. There is also the Erikson Institute, a renowned graduate school in child development that turns out graduates primed for leadership in the early childhood professions). These all depend on state funds to support their programs and their clients. Every state can't take such resources for granted, and for Illinois they are being chipped away and degraded by our own leaders.
What else does this budget shortfall mean for ECE funding in Illinois? It means some grassroots planning is in order. Though we were fortunate enough to get a boost from the stimulus dollars last year to save Illinois programs from doomsday, the feds are not likely to swoop in and save Illinois programs this time around: SAFRA, anyone? Passed in July 2009, the Student Aid and Fiscal Responsibility Act (SAFRA) initiates student loan reform, and boosts financial aid (e.g. increasing the maximum Pell Grant scholarship amount). As it was initially drafted, there were also significant set-asides for ongoing support to early childhood education. But, as ECE author/consultant Karen Nemeth commented on Twitter after the historic vote on health care reform (tied to SAFRA through the reconciliation process), "Ah, Early Learning Challenge Grants, we hardly knew ye…." From New America Foundation's report by Jennifer Cohen on the latest incarnation of SAFRA:
"However, a couple programs are obviously missing from the most recent version of the House bill. Most notable is the Early Learning Challenge Fund, an $8 billion competitive grant program meant to improve quality of and access to early learning programs in states. The absence of this program in the bill could mean a blow to the Obama Administration's early education agenda, which was largely touted during the campaign."
I think we all knew not to hold our breath for too long on the Early Childhood Challenge grants, but it was still a disappointment. This is another example of the status quo where early childhood is delivered straight to the chopping block and we are made to watch while the politicians debate and the cleaver gets closer and closer and then strikes. It is another policy process that engages in the de facto de-prioritization of children and families in a national, cultural habit or shortsightedness. There is still some hope that ARRA (the Stimulus) and the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) will follow through on provisions that support early learning. But early childhood advocates should have their legislators on speed dial, just in case. Fiscal support for early childhood is usually hard won, and lobbying may be necessary to maintain funding commitments.
Another question worth asking: When and how do we stop accepting this as the status quo? What would that look like?
Other reasons we need a better plan for supporting children and families in Illinois: whenever federal become available, they may need to be matched, i.e., our state will have to put up a percentage before we see the payoff, as is the case for the Early Childhood Advisory Council grants, which require a 70/30 state-to-federal dollar match. We have to look ahead and ask whether we will have enough to avoid losing millions, and plan accordingly.
I hope Illinois can take lessons from last year, and avoid sustaining so many losses and so much waste. Last spring, when Illinois state legislators could not present a budget plan that would protect children or families, service providers across Illinois made plans of their own. Some provided services anyway, and ate the cost – an unsustainable practice. Some rallied together, and got engaged with advocacy organizations like Illinois Action for Children and the Ounce of Prevention Fund, flooding the capitol and legislative offices with phone calls, faxes, and people. Some enforced furloughs, creating cracks in the already strained ECE workforce. Some closed their doors, leaving many dedicated practitioners and professionals to compete for jobs or leave their field in the midst of a national employment crisis. None of these plans were ideal, and I fear that we will see more of the same, based on the tone of the political rhetoric, and the fact that there are elections coming up in November. Here is Speaker of the House, Mike Madigan, discussing Governor Quinn's tax proposal:
As a voter, a tax payer, a parent and a professional, I have little patience for public servants who put their own interests ahead of the well-being of the children, families and communities that they were elected to serve and represent. I take no comfort in the fact that their checks are coming late as well. It's no secret that some legislative offices can't pay their rent due to late payments. It would be funny if it weren't so grim. Non-profits are accustomed to beleaguered state controllers, and late payments aren't a big deal if you can be sure the money will eventually come. Now it is possible that for many, many people working in programs that support communities across Illinois, the payments will stop coming. Again.
Compounding the frustration: Even if the state finds that money will be there in the coming fiscal year, as with last year, people running these programs can't take that possibility to the bank, and they won't get any credit for it. Meaning they'll have to slash staff and services or close their doors before the game of Fiscal Chicken is even run out. These are working, taxpaying people who would like nothing more than to avoid public assistance. It's one thing to re-hire a few laid-off staffers once the money becomes available, but trying to re-open a closed business is another matter: An executive director cannot put space, equipment, staff and clients on the shelf until another grant comes through. Those assets are likely gone once their gone, and the related losses are complex and far-reaching.
Initially, Governor Quinn instructed Illinois lawmakers to raise the state income tax by one-third, or cut billions in school funds. Shortly afterward, Quinn back pedaled and went for a softer sell; a tax increase from 3% to 4%, to fund education. After last year's debacle, Quinn appears reticent to present voters (or his colleagues) with anything but the tiniest squeak of a tax increase, directing the funds to something few would balk at much – education. But that still leaves the state facing devastating cuts to human services and educational programs. It is unclear how this will satisfy our state's need for new revenue across the board, to cover the holes created by that 13 billion dollar deficit. Progress Illinois reports (including reactions to the 1% proposal from some local ECE leaders):
Also, watch Governor Quinn talk about his tax increase plan:
We would do well to stop making this a cuts-versus-new-revenue discussion. It does not occur to me how we can afford to focus on only one of these options: clearly we need to prioritize spending, but a starving person is not saved by telling them to eat less food. We should spend more carefully, but to suggest that early childhood programs, and social services are an expendable casualty of decadent spending habits is disingenuous and irresponsible, especially in the face of evidence like this from Nobel laureate, University of Chicago Professor James Heckman. We should spend more on early childhood, not less.
We need new revenue to secure needed systems and safety nets already in place, for the safety and wellness of Illinois citizens. No belt-tightening will solve 13 billion unavailable dollars. We need bigger pants. Starving our state to a smaller size is not a good idea. That sounds like the Colorado Springs option, which is not a smart one. Let's not cut off our nose to spite our face. The people of Illinois deserve better. Our children, families and communities need more.

Waiting years and possibly decades for a draw hunt can sometimes lead to unreal anticipation by the time you finally draw a quality tag. The hunt arrives and you feel like you have scouted and prepared yourself well. Then the headlights start to poor in and your plan A goes to plan Z and all too soon the hunt ends.
Well, this story begins with me burning 7 bonus points in order to draw a good tag but not a premium one. I scouted more than 30 FULL days and I had found several good bulls but nothing GREAT…
After several days of hunting I was down to plan Z. Plan Z was to go back in an area where I had found a 340 class bull a week before the season, so with 3 ½ days left to hunt we climbed up on a knob and like clockwork the bull and his cows appeared in the same exact spot I saw them in before the hunt. The rest of the evening we watched them and then slept in my truck waiting for daylight to appear.
We headed to the edge of the trees as daylight was near and 30 minutes later the bull was headed for us. Just as they reached 150 yards they began to take a different angle.
That afternoon we went back to camp and talked about how the bull was going to get killed, we just had to be patient. At 3pm we made it back into the area and an old boy that was sitting the tank waved us down. These were his exact words, "Man, you aren't going to believe this but I was up on this hill just a few hours after you left and the cowboys rode this whole pasture. They pushed every elk back up on top of that hill." Not wanting to believe it I waited that night for the bull and his cow to appear and nothing but a few stragglers showed. The next morning I was at the edge of the trees again and again nothing. To cut it short I finally found the bull way back up in a draw on the last evening and made an unsuccessful stalk.
My hunt was over and I was depressed… Until I got a call from Chad Smith. Chad said he was scouting that area because he was going to help a Hunt of a Lifetime Hunter. I told him all I knew and they did the rest. Follow the link below and then navigate to the Articles page. Then look at the Western Hunter Article, Divine Intervention by Chris Denhem.
Things Happen for a Reason…
I am sure glad I didn't kill that elk as this hunter deserved him. He and his family will have memories that will last for a lifetime.

Thread: Ghost stories
My first job I worked at an arts & crafts store you may or may not recall named MJDesigns.
There were ghost stories going around the place. Apparently someone had died in the building years before. Some of the managers told us that they would look the frame shop over before closing the store for the night, see that everything was fine, and the next morning when they came in find frames that were on the counter the night before then on the floor broken to pieces.
Well, we had a TV in the breakroom and after awhile the remote went missing. After this happened from time to time the channels would randomly change or it would just turn off completely. I joked about how there must be a mouse who stole the remote playing pranks on us or something, and I'd check around the corner to see if it was really an employee, but there was never anyone even remotely in sight.
Some of us said somewhat tongue-in-cheek that it must be the ghost. Of course I thought it must just be a malfunction of some kind.
Around christmas time one year as we were clocking out one night we noticed that the TV had been taken out of the breakroom altogether. We asked one of the managers what happened and she said that one of the older more conservative ladies from the early shift complained about the Jerry Springer show and how we didn't need that kind of trash being viewed in the workplace, so they took it back in the office.
When I heard that, I shouted as a joke, "What are ya gonna haunt now, huh, GHOST!?" I laughed and we all went to our respective homes.
Later that night as I was watching TV I flipped the station to channel 11 before standing up to use the restroom.
As I was walking off all of a sudden I heard a noise of static like, "shhhhhh..." With dread I turned around and saw that it was now on channel 3! :horor:
I instantly made the connection, of course, and realized that "the ghost" must've followed me home. I really hadn't expected that. For five minutes I sat there on the couch trying to work myself up to going to the restroom. I sure didn't want to turn around only to hear that the channel had changed again! hah
Finally I did, though, and I got used to the idea that something was happening that I couldn't quite explain or control.
From then on, every once in awhile the channel changed or the TV turned off. This happened for several months until, finally, it ended altogether.
I guess the ghost got tired of haunting people who really didn't care, cuz we usually just shrugged it off. I think when I told my brother he didn't really believe me, though. haha.-stellar renegade
coo-oo-ooool this madness down,
stop it right on tiiiiime!
Badass Promoter ESTPs:
I got another creepy one, when I was around the same age, with the same group of friends doing the same kind of stuff.
In the neighborhood I grew up in, there was an animal graveyard that was bought out and dug up. For years, this lot lay unfenced and in relative ruin with mounds of dirt alternating with pits, clearly marking where the graves had been. Clear down on the other side of the property, there was a house that used to be the mortuary for the animals (or the keepers house, not really sure which). It sat there abandoned and welcoming for those of us who dared cross the mounds...as we attempted to get up the courage to do one summer's afternoon.
We were a pack of about 10 kids, all on bikes, each daring the others on to climb the dirt ramp that led up to the lot from the street.
Then an old grouchy lady started talking. I turned and there was the biddy, breaking my concentration, she began to speak--directly to me--even though I was in the far back of the pile of guys and bikes and was far from the tallest, nor did I look like I was the leader.
I don't remember her exact wording, but it was something to the effect of:
"This property is dangerous. If you kids go in, I'm calling the police, you can hurt yourselves."
To which I responded:
"That's fine ma'am, we won't."
I was pissed, but polite. My friends all huddled around me,
"That was creepy," I said.
"What are we going to do?" one of them asked.
"We're going to leave. Checking this out right now is not worth the police. Maybe we'll come back when it's dark."
At that, which lasted all of 10 seconds maybe, we turned to watch the old lady go back where she came from so we'd know which house to avoid being conspicuous around as we rode past. The old lady was gone. Completely gone.
"Where'd she go?" I asked.
My friends all shrugged. "That was quick."
"Yeah," I started to understand what just happened...
"Shall we go?"
We rode off, quickly from the hill Terrace Downs cornered, though I'm not sure how many of us were aware that it was impossible for her to have gotten into even the closest house in the time we weren't watching.Love is the point.
Probably just tripped and fell into a pit.
Ha, nah, she's was going the opposite direction.Love is the point.
Really? Not often you see people fall upwards.
What are ghosts anyway?
Here is a little truth for y'all. Ghosts are really just demons (fallen angels).
If you have ever (even once) dabbled in the occult (read witchcraft books or watched movies about the subject or read your horoscope or played with a Ouiji board or had your palm read or went to a psychic, etc), then you have opened a door for the demonic realm to have access to your life. Once inside, they therefore have permission to mess with you.
Those supernatural events mentioned are real and they are intended to cause fear. Fear attempts to control and manipulate and drain the life out of you. Fear is darkness and is not looking out for your best interest. It wants to destroy you.
If there were five people sitting in an old house that was supposedly haunted and three of them have an open door to the occult/the demonic realm in their lives, but the other two have that door closed, then three people would see the ghost walking across the room but the other two wouldn't. It depends not on your psychological health or belief system but whether or not the demonic realm has free access to the world that you live in.
To get rid of those kinds of events in your life (even your dream life at night), you have to acknowledge that it's real, repent of getting involved in the occult, and close the door the occult with a prayer.
The blood of Jesus will keep the door closed though you always have free will to reopen it and let those wretched punks back into harrass and bother you and irritate and worry you.
I choose not to be bothered with them so my door will remain locked and nailed shut. That door to the occult was opened for me by my family when I was very young and I just recently closed it a couple years ago. Most of my nightmares are gone and the ones that keep coming back I take authority over with my verbal prayers.
That person who stood up to the birds that seemed to be chasing him from the witch's house did the right thing in standing up to the fear and invoking Jesus' name to stop their assault. Ghosts do not like Father God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit because they are the only ones with authority to control and stop their evil intentions. They recognize the superior power of God and have to obey when spoken to. However, God's kids, me and other believers, also have that authority because Jesus gave it to us.
So, rather than tell you any ghost stories, I would like to extend hope for those people who are tired of being concerned with scary things that try to creep up on you in your life because you were never meant to live in fear of anything. Jesus loves you too much to let you keep living in fear. Life is so much better knowing that I have authority over ghosts and aliens and such.
I spent the first half of my life in fear but no more. Life with God in charge is much freer and more exciting than I could ever put into words. Ghosts are afraid of me. Me and my friends are the real Ghostbusters.Nothing, nothing, nothing is impossible with GOD.
Haven't heard any emergency room reports of ghost related injuries or fatalities, so I will assume that they can't actually hurt you, at least not physically. Although it would be uncomfortable knowing that they can watch you poop.
I agree that Jesus Christ is Lord; that the demons and whatever else is out there, do not have the power to stand against Him.
I kinda believe it's possible to open ourselves up, or to encourage that sort of activity, and though I never played on a Ouiji board, I did read a lot of stories and had a campfire interest about the paranormal.
You also brought up the concept that some who are open can see these things, and others who are not, don't. Have you experienced that? What is your backing?Love is the point.

Over the last few months each of the councils in Lancashire has been discussing the idea of creating a Combined Authority for Lancashire.
It has been agreed to take it to the next stage and find out what the people of Lancashire think too.
Since the start of the New Year public consultation took place and results and comments will be published shortly.
Lancashire's councils already work closely together but a combined authority is a formal, legal step that means councils can act as one authority in the best interests of Lancashire around the areas of economic regeneration, housing and transport.
The creation of a Combined Authority is something that is being replicated across the country with many bids already approved by the Government.
A combined authority means that councils can work as one democratically accountable body around the key areas of economic development, regeneration and transport to:
A combined authority could streamline services, be more transparent and efficient, and make it easier for Lancashire to attract investment and jobs.
We're sure you'll have plenty more questions so see a full list of frequently asked questions (pdf 47KB).
Now the consultation has ended each of the councils taking part will take a report to their Full Council meeting for councillors to see what residents and businesses think about the idea.
They will then take a decision as to whether they want to progress to submitting formal bid to Central Government. We will post the results of the consultation here once it is completed.
If you require help with something in this section, please contact us.

Online casinos are now offering more roulette options than ever. This is one of the games of chance that seem to draw a large number of visitors in traditional, off line casinos. They are also very popular in the online casino world. Roulette has been around for hundreds of years, though the game has improved somewhat over that period of time. However, you still have to get that little white ball to fall into the slot you have selected in order to walk away a winter at this game.
Playing online casino roulette is really no different than playing the game in a traditional casino. many of the features are very similar and, while the table and wheel are virtual, they still look very much like those that you would find elsewhere. Keep in mind that online casinos do offer a variety of versions for you to play with, too.

CMS Online Learning Site Now Underway for Adult Learning Community and More!
This year Cambridge Montessori School has quietly unveiled a new learning platform (currently entitled "CMS - Hope and Promise") which opens up many possibilities for our entire community of learners, young and old alike. It is built upon the open source software Moodle which is a vital and well-established learning management system used for K-20 education around the world (currently with over 65 million registered users). Our site also has the potential to engage directly with any of about 75 schools involved with the World Virtual School Project, a U.S. State Department sponsored consortium of international K-12 schools. The potential applicability of this platform is very high indeed!
Our new Elementary and Middle School Director, Doug Dziedzic, has begun posting a regular blog called "Elementary Elucidations" on the site. Last week our new Toddler and Primary Director Munir Shivji and School Psychologist Nicole Coman, used it to broadcast our first live and recorded webinar called "Screen time and your child. How much is too much?" within a special course for CMS parents entitled "Family Seminars". This course also hosts a group called "Book Club", currently managed by Doug Dziedzic, Munir Shivji and our Librarian Eliza Klureza. There is also a plan to begin to use the site for Professional Development courses for our own faculty, and to develop Montessori courses to be offered to members of the greater Montessori community.
This link to this site is most easily found from our CMS main website > QUICK LINKS > CMS Online Learning. It does require a login to see the resources, and instructions are on the right-hand side of the login page. The Family Seminars course requires an enrollment key which is cmsnow.
I am very excited about how this learning space can serve our greater community in so many ways. As always, am very open to suggestions, questions, etc. about this or any of the other technology projects we have underway at CMS.

Fraud Uncovered in Target's Removal of Hampton Creek
Investigators reveal unsigned letters sent to retailers, including Target, from an anonymous source that intended to disrupt Hampton Creek's business.
Food technology company Hampton Creek—known for its eggless vegan condiment Just Mayo—recently hired an investigative team to uncover the circumstances surrounding its products being inexplicably pulled from shelves at major retailer Target as well as other efforts to disrupt its business. The incident transpired on June 22, when Target began to remove Hampton Creek products from its shelves based on unsubstantiated allegations regarding product safety—namely allegations that some products were mislabeled, contained undeclared ingredients, and posed salmonella and listeria threats—made by media outlet Bloomberg.
The investigative team has since found several fraudulent, unsigned letters sent to retailers—of which, only Target took action, removing the company's products without an official recall issued by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). "The return address on the envelope of one letter sent to retailer(s) and turned over to investigators fraudulently purported to be from [Hampton Creek's] CEO Josh Tetrick," an unnamed party close to the investigation tells VegNews. "The letter itself was unsigned, addressed to retail partner executives, and cc's Bloomberg."
Andrew Noyes, spokesperson for Hampton Creek, tells VegNews that the FDA has since cleared the company of all purported safety claims. "We've remained confident that our products were safe and properly labeled, and that when presented with the facts, the FDA would agree," Noyes says. "They informed us, after reviewing applicable evidence, that the matter is closed. We've reached out to Target to determine the steps needed to get back on shelves and restore our partnership. We're thankful to the millions of consumers and growing number of partners who continue to support our mission to build a food system where everyone is eating well."
In 2015, the company was involved in a similar scandal, where 600 emails uncovered by a Freedom of Information Act request revealed a conspiracy between Unilever and the American Egg Board (AEB). Amongst many shocking developments, the documents revealed that a contractor for AEB, Anthony Zoletzzi, was paid an undisclosed sum to remove Hampton Creek's eggless products from the shelves at Whole Foods Market. Just Mayo became popular after the 2015 outbreak of bird influenza—which, according to a new report, cost one egg industry company, Cal-Maine Foods, $74 million in profits due to vegan alternatives.
