What Is Dolan Hiding and Why?
By Mike Ceremello, February 9, 2018
What happens when you vote to give the Dixon Unified School District millions of dollars to renovate their schools? Once they get our money it appears they don't want anyone to know how they are spending it until after the funds are spent.
Measure Q was passed in November 2016 by 60% of the voters and gave the district $30.4 million to renovate the old high school and Anderson Elementary. This bond now is in addition to another $29 million which was used to build the new high school. There is also talk from the school board about going out for another bond to reconstruct Tremont Elementary which is composed of portables unlike Gretchin Higgins which is a group of permanent structures.

"These three birds are over half the world population of their species." Peter Hayden's narration lays bare the stakes for the Chatham Island black robin, and the Wildlife Service team (led by Don Merton) trying to save them. Merton's innovative methods include removing eggs from nests – to encourage the last two females to lay again – and placing them in riroriro (grey warbler) foster homes. The black robin documentaries helped forge the reputation of TVNZ's Natural History Unit. Paul Stanley Ward writes about the documentaries here, and the mission to save the black robin.
This 1960 tourism film, produced by the National Film Unit, is aimed at a particular market niche: hunter holidaymakers. It follows a visitor from Omaha, USA, 'JD', who flies down to the "land of countless deer": Dart Valley in the Southern Alps. A folk song extols the joys of answering the call of the wild — "The very best thing for a man: To hunt and fish and sleep out of doors, eat his tucker where he can" — as JD and his guide climb via bird-filled beech forest onto scree slopes to nab a 14-point stag; before a ciggie on the ridge and a squiz at the scenery.
Fiordland is the jewel in the Te Wahipounamu South West New Zealand UNESCO World Heritage Site, a status underpinned by primeval scenery and a reputation as one of the world's great wilderness areas. This film explores the symmetries of life above and below the fiords, where water cascades from mountain peaks and rainforest, into the black depths of ice age carved valleys. Award-winning photography reveals the mirror world: kea, mohua, fur seals, bottlenose dolphins, and an underwater phantasmagoria of starfish, ancient black coral forests and sea pens.
This 1962 National Film Unit short uses the relationship between Māori and manu (birds) as a platform to celebrate New Zealand bush birds — from food source and key roles in myth, to their general character. Legend of Birds was filmed on Kāpiti and Little Barrier Islands. Many of the images were captured by noted nature photographers Kenneth and Jean Bigwood, and the score is by composer Larry Pruden. The narration includes a rap-style tribute to the kākā parrot: "squarks about his indigestion, population and congestion … politics the current question".
In the mid 1970s the Chatham Island black robin was the world's rarest bird. With only two females left, the conservation ante was extreme. Enter saviour Don Merton and his Wildlife Service team. Their pioneering efforts ranged from abseiling the birds (including the 'Eve' of her species, 'Old Blue') down cliff faces, to left-field libido spurs. This 1988 Listener Film and TV award-winner united two earlier Wild South documentaries, and updated the robin's rescue story to 1987. It originally screened on Christmas Day 1987, before being modified for this 1989 edition.
This documentary examines the alpine flora and birdlife in the Upper Waitaki area of the South Island. Its distinctive bird-life includes karearea (falcons), mirimiro (tomtit), kererū and kea. The native vegetation is profiled in depth. The area's introduced animals include deer, chamois, and thar, which have become pests. Beautifully shot, directed, and packed full of information, this is the kind of film the NFU was famous for. It was commissioned by the Soil Conservation Council, NZ Forest Service and the Department of Internal Affairs.
By 1976 there were only seven Chatham Islands black robins left. It was the world's rarest bird. In a bid to save the species, the surviving birds were taken from one island to another more hospitable island in a desperate rescue mission. This was part of an incredible conservation success story led by Don Merton and his NZ Wildlife Service team. Seven Black Robins and Project Takahē captured viewers' imaginations as part of an acclaimed series of 'rare bird' films that screened on TV series Wild South. They helped forge the reputation of TVNZ's Natural History Unit (later NHNZ).

North Korean leader Kim Jong-il is using both hands freely, according to a Russian musician who met with Kim during a recent visit to Pyongyang, despite reports that his left hand remains paralyzed after a stroke last year.
Oleg Ovsyannikov, who was in the North for a concert celebrating the 61st anniversary of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, told Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun on Tuesday, Kim's "memories and speech were clear" and "he moved both of his hands freely and smoked cigarettes."
Kim also introduced the North Korean singers on stage to Ovsyannikov without any trouble, and manifest his good memory by reeling off a list of names of Russian lieder composers.
Kim also smoked (American-made Marlboro cigarettes), drank tea, and firmly shook hands with him during the conversation.

I thought that hanging the vertical wall supports was going to be really difficult, but it turned out to be pretty easy. Just used a level and 2" long screws. Since the wall is T-111 siding, we didn't have to mess with stud finders or sheetrock anchors.
The unit came with four long supports, two shorter ones and one corner support. We didn't use one of the shorter supports or the corner support. There are three corner shelves and one good size corner desk, but maybe we'll use those in one of the kids rooms someday. This will work just find for us... for now.
We had to reposition things a few times, but overall, everything fits, looks good and we like it. The Eames chair we picked up in Long Beach CA looks great at the desk.
I really like the book/magazine display shelf. Note the Atomic Ranch Magazine and the Julius Shulman book. Both are packed with great eye-candy.

Lawn Sod
Before you choose a variety of lawn sod, you need to take the time to analyze and prepare the soil for the most productive results. A premium topdressing and a high-quality grass seed product are also essential to your gardening success.
Laying Down Lawn Sod in Southern Ontario
Throughout the GTA/Golden Horseshoe area, professional landscapers and homeowners rely upon high quality lawn sod for a healthy, lush turf that stands up to our sometimes extreme weather conditions. But laying lawn sod require much more than a strong back and a garden hose. Before you use lawn sod to create a new lawn, you must examine your soil conditions. You need to see how much clay and sand are in the ground, and whether drainage patterns are compacting the dirt so that oxygen won't reach the root systems. This is where a premium topdressing, made from organic topsoil and organic compost fibres, comes in.
You also need to choose a high-quality lawn sod grown from premium grass seeds. This means that the seeds must be relatively fresh to maintain high germination percentages, and that the sod is free from weeds, contaminants and debris. A dense seed pattern within the sod can alleviate most of these issues.
At Van Beek's Garden Supply, we carry a wide variety of lawn sod grown using premium Speare grass seed. We've been supplying lawn and garden supplies to professionals and homeowners in Mississauga, Oakville, Etobicoke, Burlington and Milton since 1962.

A top member of the National Iranian American Council called on the administration of US President Donald Trump on behalf of the US-based Iranian community to abandon his interventionist and hostile policies toward Iran.
"They ask Trump to respect the will of the Iranian nation. The kind of will that opposes foreign intervention and bloodshed, and favors peaceful political, economic and social reforms without violence," Reza Marashi said in a talk with IRNA on Sunday.
Trump has been harshly critical of the nuclear deal his predecessor Barack Obama, along with the governments of the other four permanent members of the United Nations Security Council plus Germany, negotiated with Iran on July 14, 2015.
Frustrated with his own unfulfilled electoral promise last year to tear up the accord, the Republican hawk is now struggling to find an excuse to claim Iran is in "non-compliance" with its commitments and walk out of the UN-endorsed agreement.
"Most of the Iranian Americans are opposed to the White House's anti-Iran policy … and Trump's threats. They demand that the US president preserve the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action and use diplomatic means to resolve US differences with Iran," Marashi said, referring to the landmark pact by its formal title.
The action plan subjected Tehran's nuclear program to time-bound curbs in return for granting it relief from international sanctions.
The seven-month-old Trump administration has twice certified Iran's compliance to Congress, as it is required to do so under the US law every 90 days, but he appears obsessed with a desire to declare Iran in violation the next time, due on October 15.
Last month, he signed into law a new round of sanctions against the Islamic Republic under a bill that had overwhelmingly cleared both chambers of the US Congress and also included penalties on Moscow and Pyongyang.
Message to JCPOA Parties
The measure drew the ire of Iranian officials, with President Hassan Rouhani threatening last week to pull Iran out of the agreement and build back its pre-deal nuclear program in a matter of hours if Washington imposes any fresh sanctions.
"The deal was a model of the victory of peace and diplomacy over war and unilateralism," said Rouhani. "It was Iran's preference, but it was not and will not remain Iran's only option."
"In an hour and a day, Iran could return to a more advanced [nuclear] level than at the beginning of the negotiations" that preceded the accord, Rouhani said. But Rouhani also tempered his own threat, adding that Iran seeks to remain loyal to its commitments under the nuclear deal, which opened a "path of cooperation and confidence-building" with the world.
Marashi said Rouhani's response was meant as an appeal to other JCPOA parties to rally to the deal's defense in the face of Trump's hostile stance.
"Rouhani's speech was a message not only to the United States but to Europe, Russia, China and other countries to do more to hold Trump accountable for his attempts at undermining JCPOA," he said.

Hi, I'm Adrienne, and I'm currently 46 and about two years out of my cancer diagnosis. I think the first thing I thought about when I heard the word cancer was - "Is this me?" and "What does this mean for my future?" And then, when I had the opportunity, I sat down and tried to receive what was just said to me, and in receiving it, I believe it made me more voracious in going after the information. I took the time to learn about what my diagnosis meant - for me, in particular, so that when I went - and I was prepared – when I went to see the specialist with questions, and follow-up, and "No why? Tell me that again, that doesn't sound right to me." Only because I knew that I had to take that initiative and put it in my own hands and I couldn't lay it all at his feet. I'm not the only one – he has so many other patients, but I'm the only patient of mine.

Now it is time for me to start my own Empire, and bring some of you aboard, hopefully making long lasting friendships and not just talking with each other because of the server being the only thing connecting us, for I believe the key component to making a strong long lasting server starts with a great group of friendly Staff.
I will reveal more about the story and lore for the server once you are accepted into the team, all I can say right now is that it will involve the Zodiacs(aries,taurus,gemini etc)

Driving Lessons | 3 Tips to Choose the Perfect Driving Instructor
There's no denying the freedom that comes with driving a car on your own, but before you get behind the wheel, you'll need to make sure you go through the right processes. If you're planning on driving, you'll need to undergo three stages to get your licence –– you'll need to get a learner's permit, a provisional or probationary licence and a full driver's licence. Driving lessons from an instructor that inspires and instills confidence in you is an important part of making you a good driver. Keep in mind that price isn't the sole reason to choose a driving instructor. Follow these tips for selecting a good driving instructor to turn you into a great driver.
Find an Accredited Driving Instructor
You don't want to find a fly-by-night operator that's only in the business for your money, so be sure to do a due diligence check before hiring a driving instructor for your driving lessons. While most states may vary with certain qualifications, most driving instructors are expected to complete a Certificate IV in Car Driving Instruction. You'll also want to look for a member of the Australian Driver Trainers Association (ADTA), since they maintain high standards of instruction for driving lessons.
Ask Whether the Instructor Follows a Structured Lesson Plan
It's unlikely for beginners to become expert drivers with just one or two lessons. A professional driving instructor must have a proper structured plan for driving lessons, along with a progress report to determine how trainees are performing. This lesson planner is a key factor in identifying areas of improvement for learners. A good instructor will follow the plan perfectly to help young drivers concentrate on overcoming their weaknesses.
Make Sure You Are Comfortable with Your Driver
When you pay $60 on an average for an hour's worth of driving, you want to make sure that you're comfortable with your instructor. If you're uncomfortable with your driving instructor, chances are you're not going to learn much and your money invested will be completely useless. Since you're the one paying the money, don't be afraid to ask the driving school for a change of instructor if you're unhappy with your experience. Generally speaking, a well-qualified and experienced instructor should be able to reduce your learning time and offer you better value. But if not, ask for a change for your own benefit.
At the end of the driving lessons, it is important that you feel you have significantly improved –– follow these tips to put your best foot forward for finding a good driving instructor, and start by calling various professional services, like Roadwise Driver Training, to see if their policies match your criteria.

The Structure of Check Valve
The structure, principle and installation notice of check valve
Check valve is also known as reverse flow valve, back pressure valve, one-way valve. This kind of valve is automatically opened and closed by the flow and the medium of the pipeline itself. It belongs to an automatic valve.
The check valve is used for the piping system, the main function is to prevent the medium from flowing back, to prevent the pump and its drive motor from reversing, and to discharge the medium in the container.
The check valve can also be used to provide a supply to the auxiliary system where the pressure may rise above the pressure of the main system. The check valve can be applied to pipelines of various mediums according to the different materials.
Check valve is installed in the pipeline, which becomes one of the components of the complete fluid pipeline, the valve will open and close the process by which it is affected by the system transient flow state; in turn, the valve closure have made effect on the fluid flow state.
The working characteristic of the check valve is that the load varies greatly, the opening and closing frequency is small, the input is closed or opened, the cycle is very long, and the movement of moving parts is not required.
But once again "switching" requirements, you must move flexibly, this requirement has more severe and more common mechanical movement. As the valve is in the most practical use, has rapid qualitative determination of closure, and in the moment of valve closure, the medium is the direction of flow, with the valve closed, medium speed is from maximum back to zero quickly, and the pressure is rapidly increased, which is likely to damage the pipeline system water hammer phenomenon.
The water hammer of the check valve is more prominent for the high pressure pipeline system in which multiple pumps are connected in parallel. Water hammer is a pressure wave to a transient flow in a pressure pipe. It is a hydraulic shock caused by the pressure rise or fall, caused by the change of fluid velocity in the pressure pipe.
The physical causes are fluid compressibility, fluid motion inertia and pipe elasticity. In order to prevent water hammer in pipes hidden for many years, people designed with a number of new structures, new materials for the valve, in order to ensure the performance of check valves at the same time, minimization of the impact of water hammer have made gratifying progress.
Check valves include many types, such as ball check valves and butterfly check valves. Butterfly check valves include swing check valves and lift check valves. The swing check valve has a hinge mechanism and a gate like valve free against the inclined seat surface.
In order to ensure that the valve can reach the appropriate position of the seat surface at any time, the disc is designed in the hinge mechanism so that the disc has enough swing space to make the disc real and comprehensive contact with the valve seat. The disc can be made of metal or leather, rubber, or synthetic coverage, depending on performance requirements. The swing check valve is almost completely open and the fluid pressure is almost unimpeded, so the pressure of the valve is relatively small. The lift check valve is located on the valve seat and the sealing surface of the valve seat.
The installation and use of check valves shall be noted:
1, vertical lift check valve should be installed on the vertical pipe.

A career in marine engineering with Simon McCowan
Founded in London in 1889, the Institute of Marine Engineering, Science and Technology (IMarEST) is an international multi-disciplinary professional body providing opportunities for the exchange of ideas and practices and upholding the status, standards and knowledge of marine professionals worldwide.
Through its Sea Your Future initiative, IMarEst offers resources and activities for students and those starting out in their career above or below the waterline, including support for the Melbourne School of Engineering's Endeavour programme.
In 2015, the inaugural IMarEst Endeavour Prize for best final year project in the area of hydrodynamics, marine engineering, oceanography or fluid mechanics was awarded to Russell George, Tom Bransden and Nick Bernard who investigated the construction and operation of a real-world, full scale drag force measurement system for rowing shells. Master of Mechanical Engineering graduate, Tom commented "the contribution by IMarEST to the University of Melbourne will likely encourage research into this field for many years to come."
IMarEST Victoria Branch Committee Member and Royal Australian Navy Marine Engineer Officer, Simon McCowan, believes this is the key purpose of the prize. "The IMarEST Endeavour prize was established in 2015 and it is hoped that it will champion interest in research and careers in Marine Engineering and Sciences into the future."
For Simon, a Mechanical Engineering graduate, no two days are ever the same. "I'm currently working as the Senior Instructor- Marine Engineering at the Royal Australian Navy's Engineer Officer Training Faculty at HMAS Cerberus in Victoria. The faculty is responsible for the delivery of initial entry engineering application training for all Navy Engineer Officers. These courses provide a foundation in the Engineering and Maintenance Discipline on to which specific equipment knowledge is then applied. "
"Engineering Careers with the Navy are varied and most engineers move to new appointments every two years. In my case, I will join a submarine as the Marine Engineer Officer mid-year. In this role, I will be responsible to the Commanding Officer for the delivery of a seaworthy platform. This involves leading a department of 15 Marine Technicians in operating and maintaining the platform systems of a Collins class submarine."
"I feel that my work impacts on society in two ways. For one, I am directly involved in the protection of Australia's national interests and secondly, I help develop the future Engineering of Australian Industry as an Engineer instructor."
Simon, who has spent nine years in the marine defence sector, is grateful for the opportunities the Navy has provided. "I would encourage students to look at every job as an opportunity to broaden your horizons," Simon explains, "you never know where it will take you."
The Melbourne School of Engineering looks forward to furthering its relationship with IMarEST and its members as we continue to develop our capabilities in Ocean Engineering.

Raag Airan
Assistant Professor of Radiology (Neuroradiology) at the Stanford University Medical Center and, by courtesy, of Materials Science and Engineering and of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
Current Research and Scholarly Interests Our goal is to develop and clinically implement new technologies for high-precision and noninvasive intervention upon the nervous system. Every few millimeters of the brain is functionally distinct, and different parts of the brain may have counteracting responses to therapy. To better match our therapies to neuroscience, we develop techniques that allow intervention upon only the right part of the nervous system at the right time, using technologies like focused ultrasound and nanotechnology.

Electronic Books have been around for well over a decade, with PDF files being the primitive format that is still used today. The Canadian ebook market is severely underdeveloped compared to the US and UK, where even Supermarket chains such as Sainsbury's own an ebook store. The largest ebook store by market value, Amazon, only recently opened in Canada last month. The only other companies to actively sell digital books would be Sony and Kobo. Libraries have a bit better of a time offering digital content, but this is mainly thanks to Overdrive, which dominates the Canadian market. With the USA and UK having so many start-up companies and major players, why does Canada lag behind?
The electronic book market is booming right now, with Penguin, Harper Collins, Hachette, and other major publisher stating that digital revenue is up 25% from 2011. The entire US ebook industry in 2012 was valued at over 954 million dollars, according to the companies that actually report their financial data. In 2010, Amazon's Kindle department said that Kindle eBooks are outselling printed ones, and this helped the company achieve 10 billion dollars in a single quarter. Parents and kids alike are turning to ebooks with revenue jumping up 233% in the first quarter of 2012 with over 64 million in sales. Over 25 million digital Young Adult Fiction books were sold in January of 2013. You could say that there is a growing digital economy. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, and Apple iBooks may be household names, but they are all American companies. The only Canadian companies in existence that actually make a bit of money are Kobo and Newspaper Direct. Kobo, was recently bought out by Japanese e-Commerce giant Rakuten.
Surging ebook sales now represent an estimated 16.3 per cent of the overall book market in Canada, a figure that caught even some industry watchers by surprise. Some people say this is because of Kindle and Barnes and Noble dominating the market. The USA went digital first and Canada was under-prepared for the innovation. The majority of Canadian digital book sales go to USA based companies.
Compared to Silicon Valley and untold billions of dollars in Incubators that foster small companies, Canada is in trouble. Y Combinator is a well known American company that puts 18k into small start-ups and gets them to move to the Valley for 3 months. The company provides an extensive mentoring program and helps companies refine their pitches and then invite true venture capitalists to their demo day to check out the best projects. Y Combinator has been responsible for incubating Reddit, Disqus, Dropbox, Hipmunk, and Scribd. Can anyone think of any Canadian company like this that has an extensive portfolio of success stories? Most VC companies in Vancouver and Toronto have nothing to do with digital ebooks and most don't understand it. Canada tends to only invest in bio-tech, education, mining, and oil. We have spoke with over 50 VC companies in Canada, and not a single one said they would ever invest in ebooks. The only reason Kobo Books ever amounted to anything was because of an early investor from Chapters/Indigo.
The finance and growth of start-up culture has been one of the largest barriers for fostering new companies. In the ebook industry, the US has the largest concentration of digital companies, but also the most financed. If you look at the educational sector, Kno, Chegg, and many eTextbook companies, they have garned close to 50 million a year in sales. Canada has an expansive student population and none of these companies do business here. There are zero home-grown Canadian companies distributing ebooks to students, even if the market is growing. The BC Minster of Education announced a few months ago that students in BC will have the digital editions of all first year ebooks available free of charge. Distribution? So far nothing has been announced and that problem warrants its own debate.
Many Canadian companies have written to me over the years lamenting the fact there are so many barriers to getting funding in Canada that most end up relocating to the USA. From the Small Business Development Bank of Canada to the major banks, no one invests in digital ebooks. They tend to see the concept as intangible goods and unworthy of their time or money.
Major publishers are all recording double digit growth in ebooks and Amazon is raking in billions a quarter in digital sales. Canada simply does not provide the environment for new companies to flourish in the educational and consumer sectors.

Swim and Dive sweeps Kentucky
By Dalton Ray–
The men's and women's swim team swept in-state rival Kentucky Saturday night at Ralph Wright Natatorium. The women won 190-110 while the men doubled up the visiting Wildcats 200-100.
Head coach Arthur Albiero was very happy with the performance of both teams.
"Anytime you play the local rival people always talk about it," Albiero said. "For us it's just another match against good competition, and we needed to continue to match forward progress. That was my challenge for them and they stepped up. We found little improvements in a bunch of areas."
Both squads jumped up early on Kentucky and didn't look back. The early relay finishes helped the Cardinals get breathing room, then cruise to the finish line.
Trevor Carroll won three events in the 50-free, 200 free and the 500 free. Grigory Tarasevich and Andrea Cottrell both took home the two backstroke events along with being a leg in the winning relay teams. Kelsi Worrell won the 100-free and 100-fly.
Both men and women started off by finishing first and second in the 200-medley relay. Two events later, they finished one-two in the 200-yard freestyle.
Senior Kelsi Worrell said getting up early on is a big goal.
"Coach (Albiero) always previews the match," Worrell said. "He'll try to predict the score based on our preview meets and theirs and when we get a win we weren't expecting, it gives us more confidence. It's really big and that energy carries over."
Louisville won 16 of the 26 swimming events. Kentucky claimed the number one spot in three of the four diving events.
Worrell was very excited after the win.
"We had so much energy and we just had a blast," Worrell said. "I just love being with the team and love winning. I had so much fun today. And to demolish UK is just icing on the cake."
With this win the Cardinal's senior night meet will be Jan. 29 against Indiana. The team loses eight members as a part of this year's graduating class.
After the season finale the Cards will head into the conference championships in Greensboro, North Carolina. After getting a taste of this tournament last year coach Albiero knows what he and his team are getting into.
"We know the ACC is going to be a bear," he said. "It's an incredible conference with great competition and it's becoming one of the best conferences in the country. We want that to spring us ahead into the NCAAs. You want to be where your feet are but you also want to keep your eyes on the prize."
The ACC conference championships for the women start on Feb. 17, with the men starting up on Feb. 24.

STERLING HEIGHTS, Mich. >> A Detroit suburb that denied a religious organization's proposal for a mosque in a residential neighborhood has agreed to settle two federal lawsuits that alleged discrimination.
The Sterling Heights City Council voted late Tuesday to accept the settlements, including one in a lawsuit brought in December by the U.S. attorney's office.
Federal authorities said Wednesday that Sterling Heights will allow construction of the mosque.
City officials say the settlement keeps Sterling Heights out of costly litigation.
The city's planning commission voted in 2015 against a special land agreement sought by the American Islamic Community Center. A lawsuit brought by the community center noted a "hostile" commission and public.
Sterling Heights has said the denial was based on issues involving the building's size and parking.

The Whole Brain Child by Dr. Dan Seigel – GET IT HERE
"In this pioneering, practical book, Daniel J. Siegel, neuropsychiatrist and author of the bestselling Mindsight, and parenting expert Tina Payne Bryson demystify the meltdowns and aggravation, explaining the new science of how a child's brain is wired and how it matures. The "upstairs brain," which makes decisions and balances emotions, is under construction until the mid-twenties. And especially in young children, the right brain and its emotions tend to rule over the logic of the left brain. No wonder kids can seem—and feel—so out of control. By applying these discoveries to everyday parenting, you can turn any outburst, argument, or fear into a chance to integrate your child's brain and foster vital growth." ~ Goodreads
The Gardener and the Carpenter by Alison Gopnik – GET IT HERE
"Drawing on the study of human evolution and her own cutting-edge scientific research into how children learn, Gopnik shows that although caring for children is profoundly important, it is not a matter of shaping them to turn out a particular way. Children are designed to be messy and unpredictable, playful and imaginative, and to be very different both from their parents and from each other. The variability and flexibility of childhood lets them innovate, create, and survive in an unpredictable world. "Parenting" won't make children learn—but caring parents let children learn by creating a secure, loving environment." ~ Goodreads
The Element BY Dr. Ken Robinson – GET IT HERE
Finding out what drives you as a person is essential for how you learn, and what you want to do as an adult.

Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder BY Richard Louv – GET IT HERE
"In this groundbreaking new work, child advocacy expert Richard Louv directly links the lack of nature in the lives of today's wired generation—he calls it nature deficit—to some of the most disturbing childhood trends, such as rises in obesity, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), and depression. Some startling facts: By the 1990s the radius around the home where children were allowed to roam on their own had shrunk to a ninth of what it had been in 1970. Today, average eight-year-olds are better able to identify cartoon characters than native species, such as beetles and oak trees, in their own community. The rate at which doctors prescribe antidepressants to children has doubled in the last five years, and recent studies show that too much computer use spells trouble for the developing mind." ~ Goodreads
Teach Your Own: The John Holt Book of Homeschooling BY John Holt & Pat Farenga -GET IT HERE.

Chapters on living with children, "serious play," children and work, and learning difficulties will be of interest to all parents, whether home schooling or not, as well as to teachers." ~ Goodreads

The City of Spokane has instituted a wastewater bill discount for customers who use less water. The credit program is designed to introduce equity in wastewater billing and allow customers to make choices that could lead to lower monthly bills. Before this program, all wastewater customers were charged the same rates regardless of the amount of wastewater they generated.
Under the credit program, the lowest 20 percent of indoor water users receive credits totaling $60 a year. The credits are distributed in equal monthly amounts of $5 over the year and will be noted on a customer's bill with the line item, "W W Conservation Credit."
The lowest 20 percent of indoor water users is determined annually based on water use during the winter, when most water use is for indoor purposes and ultimately reaches the City's Riverside Park Water Reclamation Facility. Credits for 2019 are based on 2018 winter water usage numbers. Customers who have no water use during the winter aren't eligible for the credit.
Water use will be recalculated annually, and customers who receive the credit may be different from year to year.
For 2019, customers who used a total of 11 units of water or less over a four-month period in the winter of 2018 will receive the credit. A unit of water is equal to 100 cubic feet or approximately 748 gallons.
Customers can take steps this winter to reduce their indoor water usage and possibly qualify for the discount in the future. Customers can find information on indoor water-saving products and tips on the City's Slow the Flow website and on the Environmental Protection Agency's site.
The credit program fits with the City's goals of providing utility customers with affordable and predictable rates. The Council's rate-setting principles include: simplicity and transparency, stability, sustainability, and equity and affordability.
The program also benefits the City's Water Wastewater Utility:
