HOUSTON -- NBA Commissioner David Stern expects a concrete financing plan from Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson within the next two weeks, with the aim of settling the Kings' future by mid-April.
Stern said that Johnson will attend an April 17-18 owners meeting in New York to deliver his proposal, but the league expects to have heard it by then.
"We have an April 17th meeting of the board, but if the mayor follows through on what he's told us, we'll have it comfortably by March 1," Stern said Thursday.
Johnson is trying to line up investors to buy the Kings and keep them in his city with a new arena, rather than watch them move to Seattle.
Speaking at an All-Star weekend event, Stern also said he doesn't currently see "a push for expansion" among owners, knocking down the idea that both cities could end up with teams.
"My statement about expansion is talk to Adam next year," Stern said, with commissioner-elect Adam Silver standing behind him. "I don't have any plans to champion expansion between now and Feb. 1, 2014. That's up to the ownership and the commissioner."
Stern will retire as commissioner on that date.
A Seattle group led by Chris Hansen and Steve Ballmer has reached an agreement with the Maloof family to buy 65 percent of the franchise, which is valued at $525 million, and move the team to Seattle and restore the SuperSonics name. The deal will cost the Hansen group a little more than $340 million.
The mayor has introduced more than 20 local investors who have pledged at least $1 million each to be minority owners in the team, but he has yet to announce the major equity partners.
Stern said he has no meetings scheduled this weekend with Johnson, who plans to be in Houston, but said the former NBA All-Star may even meet with the board before April.
Until then, the Seattle group will have to wait.
"We have a process that we've been doing for the last some-odd years, probably 50, where we take applications, we do all the work and the work has begun," Stern said. "And so the April 18th board meeting is what we're aiming for for final resolution on this issue."
Stern spoke after joining former NBA star Bob Lanier, a special assistant to the commissioner, to announce a four-year contract extension between the league and the Retired Players Association, commemorating their 20-year partnership.

Search for WTC President will Take some Time
By: Snyder Daily News
Updated: July 16, 2012
Lee Presswood said Friday that 27 resumes have been submitted for the post. The board is looking for its sixth president in the 41-year history of the school.
Dr. Mike Dreith, former president, resigned last month to become the president of John A. Logan College in Illinois.
Friday was the final day to submit resumes. However, since the college is on a four-day work week, the final number of applicants will not be known until Monday.
"We are expecting some more," Presswood said.
He said the applicants are coming from throughout the nation, including Alaska, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Connecticut and Texas. One resume came from the country of Oman.
Last week, board members received all the resumes on file.
The seven men are currently reviewing those resumes. Presswood said once all of the paperwork is reviewed, the board will get together, during a closed session, and rank the candidates.
"With that, we can see where we stand," he said. "We will continue to discuss the applicants before beginning the elimination process."
Presswood added that the board has not set up a time frame to select Dreith's successor. "We are not rushing into anything. We will not do any interviews until the faculty and staff is back on campus."
Once the process gets down the finalists, Presswood said background checks will be performed and a decision about who will be interviewed will be made.
"We want to make sure we have the best fit for our college," he said.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students If you love Fashion and are serious of being part of the Fashion World. Parsons is to Fashion, like Harvard is to Law. No. one in my book.
Tips for prospective students I would encourage any future student to enroll in the summer program at Parsons. its one month, but you are on the go from day one. and you will really know whether Parsons is the school for you.
Bang for the buck My parents spent the funds to send me there, because they wanted to make sure I would accept the NYC lifestyle. I loved it.
Did enjoy being here The Dorm was nice,I learned to live with two other girls,who were very nice and I made a friend from Sweden for Life!
Did learn a lot I attend the summer intensive course this year (2011), I worked hard,long hours, but loved every second . My drawings from day one to the last day improved 1000%, recieved a B+

Categories Comments Campus Safety Security 24-hours in the buildings. They are pretty nice and let us do our homework etc. Just here to protect us from non-students entering.
Clubs and Activities I see a lot of clubs and activities, internships etc. Unfortunately I'm so busy with homework and 2 jobs that I can't do them. But plenty of opportunities for activities.
Great for these types of students Who love to do homework!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The fire drills kinda make me laugh, because it disrupts the class but the guys who organized it were very nice and told us they wanted to keep us safe which was appreciated.
Bang for the buck This school is expensive but I didn't get into FIT and I wanted the recognition so I got it. I do feel like I'm learning in the end result, its not where you learn, how you learn but if and what you learn because ultimately you need to understand what you are learning. I do however feel that its harder for me to learn since I have to work 2 jobs and go to school full time.
Food and Dining No Idea, live off campus. But I'll rate the food around the campus. Lots of options since its in the Garment District.
Dorm Life No idea live in an apartment off-campus
Academic Rigor I do feel challenged, even as a person who has some familiarity with fabric. I definitely think that these programs weed out the shallow and less hard-working students.
Tips for prospective students Be prepared to do a lot of homework!
In three sentences Great, I'm learning all the foundation concepts for my major.

Tips for prospective students work really hard and never wait until the last minute. it is extremely competitive so try your very best and take every chance you get at an internship!
In three sentences this is a great school especially for fashion and it is conveniently located in new york city, where many fashion companies are located. there are many opportunities for jobs and internships.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The security gaurds are always on campus and I feel extremely safe. There are always signs up warning students of upcoming events that may interfere with our schooling, for example a hurricane was to hit NYC and they emailed us of some safety precautions to be aware of and/or if school were to be cancelled. The communication and awareness at Parsons is always up-to-date and that makes me feel like I can feel safe at school and not have to worry.
Greek Life Other than different groups and/or activities there is no real Greek Life but this in one positive aspect offers all of us to come together and to work hard and make the most of our school expierence by involving ourselves with school and a professional career at a New York state of mind.
Clubs and Activities Parsons offers many clubs and activities you will never feel alone or bored! They even welcome students to create new groups which inspires new ideas and events.
Great for these types of students The fashion dept. is mainly in the NYC fashion district so you are always around that kind of environment. It's central to all of the fabric company's so if you ever need anything for projects its at your footsteps. When you have a lot of classes, work, internships, homework,etc. it's impt. to have time and convienence at your side!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The fashion dept. is seperated from the rest of the departments/academics offered at Parsons, which can be somewhat annoying b/c I'd like to involve myself with other people and see what they are doing. However, some classes are required at the other location at 14th street and 5th avenue, which than I can communicate and interact with non-fashion students. All in all it is a great community at the school whereever you are.
Bang for the buck You get what you pay for at Parsons; meaning it is an expensive school but the education and opportunities given to you and all of it happening in New York City is worth the funding.
What to do for fun Parsons has so many group activities, they offer low priced tickets to professional baseball and football games, you can attend college games and cheer for your team. They also offer group picnics, weekend trips, community groups to get involved in like student government. I thoroughly enjoy working with career servicees b/c they help me get information about internships and career events to attend so that I can meet people already in the fashion business.
Food and Dining I have not experienced any of the food and dining at Parsons, however being in New York there are so many convienent stores around the classrooms I can always find something that is open and that serves healthy food!
Dorm Life I have not experienced the dorm life myself, however I have had friends who lived in various Parsons dorms for different academic majors, all of which have been positive responses. They loved the communial atmosphere which helped them with friendships, projects and future business connections. The rooms are clean and have everything a student would need while attending Parsons.
Academic Rigor This school is very strict on it's late or no absence policy, for example 3 missed classes is grounds for failure in a class and 1 missed class during summer is an automatic fail. This is rigorous but important, because a lot of information is given during class and you can easily fall behind if missing a class. The school grounds is safe and clean and I respect there strict guidelines b/c I feel I am getting the most out of a school that expects the best, at a professional level.
Tips for prospective students Get all the information you can by speaking to your advisor and the financial aid department before you get started in school and as you progress. These departments and advisors are great mentors and give great guidence that will help you financially, mentally be prepared for a career and help in know all the facts to ensure the students and parents are getting the best out of Parsons.
In three sentences Parsons is a high end school that offers a resonable sized student to teacher ratio. I gained a lot of information in the one semester I attended and find that I have evolved as a student that is preparing for my career in fashion. I am able to focus on not only my degree but all other aspects of the fashion buisness by being at Parsons and it's location in New York City.

Categories Comments Bang for the buck Financially, it is a bit over-priced given the amount of space and facilities students have to learn and make art. However, this is probably due to its prime location in the city.
Am enjoying being here As Parsons is located in the center of New York City, its culture is pretty much merged with the entire city culture. The school makes use of the unique qualities in New York to inspire students. Most of the social activities happen in the city rather than on actual parsons campus areas, which makes it always an exciting and new experience.
Am learning a lot Parsons provides a very all-rounded curriculum for its students in foundation year to prepare them in establishing strong portfolio with basic skills and concepts in design, such as hues and values, composition, adobe software skills, volume and space.

Categories Comments What to do for fun Well the area is union square, so there's lots that goes on. You can be in times square in matter of minutes. There's lots to see, very busy, lots of activities.
Food and Dining They have the meal plan but i don't intend to take the meal plan hopefully I won't have to. With meal plan it'll cost a lot for my dorms.
Dorm Life Again I have not check out the dorms, this summer though i'm going to see what the dorms are like. For your dreams though you have to be up for anything and be able to adjust to your surroundings. They have security surveillance all the time so you will be very protected.
Academic Rigor I have not yet began the school, but they seem pretty strict on school work. When I was taking a tour the girl told me that she would have an hour of homework for each class. Though, it makes sense it's one of the best art and design school in America.
Tips for prospective students Make sure you know what you want to be before going to this school. If your there just for a try out that's not so great. It's probably best you go to community college first and see your options. If you know what you to be then by all means sign up this school.
In three sentences I definately think that parsons is the school for me. It's filled with upcoming designers and such. The only obvious thing is that the tuition is super expensive.

Dorm Life Very expensive, yet you make great friends
Academic Rigor Compare to other top art schools, Parsons' studio classes aren't the toughest, yet its still tough enough for you to worry about deficiency of sleep and nutrition.
Tips for prospective students Prepare many and a variety of different ideas, and be sure to create individuality.
In three sentences A great design school that focuses greatly on concept creativity, commercial and business intended career, as well as many great opportunities offered by the city. The school also has strong bias on its fashion department.

Categories Comments Campus Safety You must always be on a personal lookout for your own safety but over all security cameras and law enforcements bombard the surrounded area.
Greek Life There is none in Parsons.
Great for these types of students Fashion, Illustation desighn, and Architectual desighn.
What to do for fun For fun i sit down and do nothing. My mind is constantly moving with thoughts project ideas, along with balancing family relationships ans school. And being so determined i cannot rest until i complete each innovative task. This is good because seldom i find myself two steps in front of everyone else but i never have time to relax. So when all is done i love to go to the park and just walk around of lye down, and think only about the beautiful scenery.
Food and Dining With a meal card you are set. The cafeteria is always stocked with all kinds of fresh food, whether you are a vegan, vegetarian, or someone like me who enjoys their turkey sandwiches. Dining outside of campus is no hassle at all. Their are restaurants just minutes away that will not burn a whole through your wallet.
Dorm Life Resources are a short walk away. Study, social and studio space are always available. Although each floor mush share a compact bathroom the rooms are pretty spacious, mindful that they are primarily used for sleeping.
Academic Rigor If you like to challenge yourself, be inspires mat a constant rate, and have to opportunity to learn with hands on projects Parsons is the perfect school for you. The staff is more than experienced, the city is diverse and frankly, clean and safe, and the dorms offer countless resources.
Tips for prospective students Before arriving at Parsons it is recommended that you become familiar with the vibrant city, which if not investigated can become a bit overwhelming, especially during classes. Come into school with an open mind, meeting new people, and seeing brand knew things is inevitable; it is best to take these knew things and be willing to let them inspire you. Overall, stay focused and have a list of priorities. As fun as the school is we must forget that it is intern a very competitive and demanding environment.
In three sentences Basically, Parsons is ideal for anyone looking for an nontraditional college experience! The rules regarding attendance are strict because here you cant just take notes to learn; everything is hands on. The campus is surrounded by life and diversity inside a city that never sleeps*

Categories Comments Campus Safety It's not that it isn't safe. It's that there isn't really a campus. The city is your campus.
Greek Life None.
Clubs and Activities They exist.
Bang for the buck Because of the location, it can feel like you are throwing money away.
What to do for fun ... it's New York City. Let your imagination run wild, because you can find anything. Don't be afraid to take the subway out to Coney Island, Central Park, or whatever. Just get out there.
Food and Dining Just small cafes in different buildings that you can use the dining dollars at which come with the dorms. Nothing too special.
Dorm Life It really is overpriced given the quality of and the living situation in the dorms. But, Loeb, Stuy, and 13th Street dorms are within walking distance of most of the buildings, which is fantastic.
Academic Rigor Projects will consumer your life, especially during freshmen year. Be prepared for the biggest lessons in time management that could ever exist.
Tips for prospective students Really assess your finances. New York is an expensive place to be, and you are going to either work work your tailend off or be emptying bank accounts to keep up.
In three sentences First of all, it is in the heart of New York City! The location and available connections with big names might be the biggest reason to go here. Besides that, it is a very solid art and design school, though expensive.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Despite what you may have heard, NYC is a safe place to live. I came from a small town hearing horror stories about the dangers of New York, and have been pleasantly surprised at how safe it is. You cannot get into the school buildings without an ID, and there are security guards at the door. Because the city never shuts down, there are always people around. Most school buildings are within a block or two of the subway, making transportation convenient. I have never felt unsafe walking around at night in NYC. The rule of thumb is to just always be aware of your surroundings.
What to do for fun New York City is like no other place in the county, and there is never a shortage of things to do. The only problem is choosing what to do! Surprisingly, many of the activities are cheap or free. Look at http://www.timeout.com/newyork for things to do, though it usually only takes a short walk down the street to find something.
Food and Dining The food is unmatched in New York City, because you can get delicious, authentic food from all over the world. It is, however, fairly expensive. The key is to balance the pricy meals with packing your own lunch and snacks for between classes. There are also cheap options, like slices of pizza and the food carts, which have great, fast meals for fairly cheap.
Dorm Life The dorms are extremely expensive, though a great option if you are coming out of state and unfamiliar with the area. The dorms provide a great home away from home, and a solid community out of the classroom. Space is limited, but perfectly comfortable and doable. Plenty of clothing storage is provided, and some dorms even have kitchens!
Academic Rigor Parsons academic environment is very competitive, though collaborative. Most likely, at least 50% of your peers will be international, so you will be working with the best of the best from all over the world. The environment is very fast-pace, challenging, and fun. There is no stopping points during the semester. You will work harder than you ever worked, but will most likely have had a great time doing it, so it is worth it. The professors will challenge you beyond your own expectations, so it is up to you to take it to the next level. Parsons integrates critical partnership opportunities that will provide you with real-world experience. Make connections, and NETWORK! These partnerships will prove to be very valuable throughout your time at Parsons, and afterwards.
Tips for prospective students Don't be afraid to be different! Parsons welcomes students that aim to shape the next generation of the design field, which is evolving into something that it wasn't before. In your personal statement, don't be afraid to mention the frustrations you've experienced with the field, and how you can address the new challenges that arise.
In three sentences Parsons is one of the best non-traditional design schools in the country, focusing on intense collaboration with your peers and external partners. The school is very competitive, though welcomes students with sharp, creative minds that are not afraid to initiate change. Parsons design will force you to explore the limits of design in theory and practice in a challenging atmosphere.

Food and Dining The cafeterias offer food for any preference and diet, whether you might be vegan or not. They offer breakfast and many different lunch options.
Dorm Life Quiet and no parties in the dorms since the parties happen in apartments in the city.
Academic Rigor Every day homework that requires 2+ hours.
Tips for prospective students The work load is rigorous and it requires attention to detail. But don't worry, the teachers are very much available after class hours to help with whatever you need.

Clubs and Activities Very inactive, even with the few clubs in the school, the Greek Life here is non-existant.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Small and crowded elevators...
Bang for the buck Overpriced. But as a great man once said college education is how much you put in it. You can attend Harvard and never be active with the school activities
What to do for fun We are a fashion school...parties, girls, alcohol.
Food and Dining Meal plan is a bit overpriced, but it is decent food. Plus, its NYC, there is food literally every 20 feet.
Dorm Life Dorms are somewhat old, except for the new University Center that is being built right now. Other than that, some dorms are very low class, compared to residency you can find with the amount you will be paying.
Academic Rigor Again, terrible first year program. Suitable for people with no design background, but horrible for people who has taken introductory courses already,
Tips for prospective students Try not to antagonize your roommates, as your life in any college will become fun if you have close roommates. Do not procrastinate. Parsons is not a hard school, at least not first year, if you do everything on time. Wait till the last night, then yes, you will not get sleep.
In three sentences A somewhat selective school, based off of mostly wealth and somewhat talent, with a terrible first year program that is being reformed. Definitely one of the best Fashion Design schools in the world. However, there are many improvements that can be done with the extremely easy first year.

Food and Dining The food in school is not that great. Even so, there are a lot of affordable cafes and restaurants around the campus, so it's not really a big problem.
Dorm Life To be honest, The New School doesn't really have a great dorm life. However, I can't deny that the location of most of the dorms are walking distance from campus and everywhere else.
Academic Rigor Parsons is the best design school in the United States. The work load is a lot, but it will surely prepare you for your future. You'll be ready for what you're going to face in the future.
Tips for prospective students I only have one thing to say to all prospective students out there. If you want to learn about art and design, this is the place to be. Not just because what the school's known for, but also it is because of its location (NYC). It is the centre of the art and design world. You'll get easy access to big corporations or companies out there.
In three sentences Parsons offers learning experiences that you will never get anywhere else. All of the faculties are the expert in their fields. However, the most important of all, the school will provide you with all these great opportunities that you will never find anywhere else.

In real life, snakes and mongooses are biological rivals. They're like the stereotypical Dog/Cat fights going on through the ages. Mongooses have also developed antibodies, and are immune to snake venom, which is seen through Zangoose's Dream world ability Toxic Boost, which gives him an advantage of seviper.
I'm guessing it is the pokemon they are based on- Zangoose is a mongoose & seviper is obviously a snake. Mongooses are a snakes natural enemy/predator explaining zangooses immunity & toxic boost abilities that at first sight come out of the blue. I guess that is the cause of the ancestorial rivalry between two of my favourite pokemon.
Hope this helps:)

11. | Remus Lupin | ||
Remus Lupin is a former professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, goes by the name Moony by his best friends (James Potter, Sirius Black, and Peter Pettigrew). He is a werewolf, and he transforms in the Shrieking Shack once a month. The werewolf who bit him was Fenrir Greyback. In the marauder era, Lupin was romantically involved with his best friend Sirius Black. After Sirius was killed off in Order of the Phoenix, Remus tried to move on. He married Nymphadora Tonks, Sirius's cousin, in the hope that she would have similar traits as him, and as an experiment of his sexuality. Remus often feels down during the last years of his life because of this mistake. Remus is often described as having amber eyes, and shaggy brown hair. He's covered in scars because of his transformations, and he's really powerful despite how skinny he is. Since nobody will hire a werewolf, he can't afford nice clothes, and they are often worn down and patchy. Remus Lupin: God of chocolate and... homework.
1. | Remus Lupin | ||
Remus, a.k.a Moony, is a former mysterious professor and werewolf who taught Defense of the Dark Arts in the third Harry Potter book. As a character, he provides a strong and mature father figure for Harry, and his highly charming personality contrasts magnificently with the terrible werewolf he becomes every full moon. As a person, he is thoughtful and compassionate, and is always there to lend a hand. He is also very intelligent, but not without a good sense of humor.
Lupin's strength, optimistic, and considerate personality gives him the name a "drop dead sexy werewolf " and makes people like me swoon. FanFics usually describe him as having glowing, very intense, soulful amber eyes with soft shaggy brown hair. You'll know when you've gone too far obsessing over Moony:
1.) you attempted to perform "Avada Kedavra" on your physciatrist when she told you that Remus was a fictional character =) 2.)Every page in your diary has "Remus is coming for me today" written on it |

AKA Moony or Professor Lupin: Hogwarts Professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts.
Sexy and utterly shaggable down-on-his-luck werewolf companion of Sirius Black and James Potter. Occasional fairy-boy and all around diamond-in-the-rough Gryffindor sex-god. Also, hands off as is betrothed to aforementioned Sirius Black "Hello, I'm Remus Lupin, the only half-decent witch or wizard willing to take the DADA position, if you'll have me"
3. | Remus Lupin | ||
The sexiest, hottest, most gorgeous werewolf ever to walk the face of this planet only to be made hotter by the fact that he actually CARES about people. Was friends with Sirius Black, Peter Pettigrew, and James Potter (whose son you might've heard of, seeing as he's the main character in one of the most famous pieces of literature ever). Oh, 4:30, time to go snog Remus Lupin.

(Note: This definition is mainly about the Marauder's Era Remus, not the modern day Harry Potter Remus. Most of this information was provided by Jo Rowling herself through interviews and transcripts.)
Remus Lupin was born on March 10th, 1959. Lupin was bitten by the vicious werewolf Fenrir Greyback as a young child (some believe his age to have been around 6), thus becoming a werewolf himself. His parents tried everything but there was no cure. He and his parents were justifiably afraid he would not be able to attend school, but headmaster Albus Dumbledore allowed him to enroll at Hogwarts - as long as certain measures were taken. A house was built in Hogsmeade with a secret passage leading to it from under the Whomping Willow. Lupin was smuggled into this house for his monthly transformations to ensure his safety and the safety of others. The transformation from human to werewolf is difficult and painful, and when isolated from humans or the company of other animals, a werewolf will harm itself with its own teeth and claws out of frustration from not being able to attack. The villagers mistook Lupin's screaming as that of extremely violent ghosts. The house was dubbed "the Shrieking Shack" and became known as the most haunted building in Britain. Although the house was not really haunted at all, Dumbledore promoted this rumour to discourage curious villagers from exploring. Remus kept his transformations a secret, but his friends James Potter |

The drop dead sexy Defence Against the Dark Arts Teacher. Is kind-hearted and compansionate towards his students. Gives special care towards Harry. Becomes a werewolf every fullmoon which adds a mysterious touch to him which makes him shy at times but isnt afraid to stand by and help a friend. Remus did you perform a charm on me? No? I think its just your charming looks that bedazzled me.
6. | remus lupin | ||
the insanely adorable, chocolate-addicted werewolf/former professor in the harry potter book series.
he's sweet and intelligent, which only add to his attractiveness. he's the 'M' in MWPP. the 'M' stands for 'Moony' because he's a werewolf... in most fanfiction, he tends to get romantically paired with Harry's godfather, Sirius Black. this happens to be my favorite fanfiction pairing. if you consult any fangirl about his appearance, she will tell you that he has gorgeous amber eyes and long-ish, shaggy, light-brown hair. his clothes are old and have patches on them (he doesn't have much money because nobody will hire a werewolf). oh, and he always carries this awesome kind of magical chocolate that can cure anything from headaches to dementor attacks to erectile dysfunction! :) i never did understand why Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, and James Potter were even friends with Peter Pettigrew.
7. | Remus Lupin | ||
A rather down-on-his-luck werewolf.
JK disappointed me hugely by killing off him and Dora, somehow I don't think she made many friends doing that. He is often paired with Sirius Black in the world of fandom, but it's so likely, it may as well be canon. Remus Lupin's scars just make him sexier!

June 17, 2013- August 12, 2013
7:00 am -5:30 pm
Parent Welcome Letter
Dear Members of the Panorama Community:
I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you and your family to the 2012-2013 school year at Panorama Elementary School. We are excited because we have once again made our Annual Year School Targets, making AYP. The staff and I are looking forward to working with you and your children. We will continue to ensure that all of the students acquire knowledge and develop skills and understandings that will enable them to become productive citizens and lifelong learners. This will continue to be accomplished through a rigorous curriculum, our dedicated staff, positive home-school communication, and a safe and orderly environment. Together, we can make this another outstanding year for our students.
The first day of school for students will be Monday, August 20, 2012. Our school hours are 7:45 a.m. to 1:55 p.m. If your child is a walker or car rider, he/she should not arrive at school before 7: 40 a.m. unless he/she will eat breakfast or monitored by an adult. Breakfast will be served beginning at 7:20 a.m. on Monday, August 20, 2012.
Lunch will cost $2.60 (reduced price lunch $0.40) per day and breakfast is $1.50 (reduced breakfast $0.30) each day. Students who received free and reduced lunch and breakfast in the Prince George's County Public Schools System will continue until September 30, 2012. You must complete a new application to determine your eligibility and receive a written notice of your child's status before September 30, 2012 or you will have to pay the full price for all meals. Students, who paid full price last year, new to the county or entering the public school system for the first time, must pay full price or bring a lunch from home each day until the free/reduced lunch application is completed.
As you are preparing for the opening of school, please remember that uniforms are mandatory. (COLORS- Navy blue and white)
State law requires that your child/children attend school every day unless there is a legitimate excuse for the absence. Students who arrive after 7:45 a.m. are considered tardy and must be accompanied by an adult to sign them into school or a note from the parent/guardian. We must strive to keep absenteeism and tardiness to a minimum in order to better ensure student progress.
It is also, the goal of Panorama Elementary to maintain a safe and orderly environment for students and staff. In doing this it is important that all parents and daycare providers be aware of the policies and procedures one must follow when entering the building. Please know that all visitors (parents, daycare providers ect…) must report to the main office and sign the visitor's log, present a photo ID, and receive a visitors pass before going to any location in the building. Before entering the classroom you must present the visitors pass and introduce yourself to the classroom teacher/Substitute that will then assist you. Without a visitors pass, no child will be released. This is a Prince Georges County system wide procedure that we expect everyone to follow. We are also, asking if you pick your child up daily for dismissal that you please pick them up before 1:00 p.m. and sign the early dismissal log. Please know that any child being picked up after 1:00 p.m., you will need to wait outside for them until all students are dismissed. Please know that in no way are we trying to inconvenience anyone but we feel the need to enforce this procedure for the security and safety of our children.
Student supply list can be accessed on the Prince Georges County web page, click on schools, locate Panorama Elementary and the link to our website is located there.
Orientation for Pre-Kindergarten students and their parents/guardians will be held on Thursday, August 16, 2012 from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. Kindergarten students and their parents/guardians will be held on Thursday, August 16, 2011 from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Please join the PTA, visit your child's classroom, and volunteer in the school.
Thanking you in advance for your commitment to our students, school, and community.
Ms. P. Wells, Principal

School Visitors
We welcome and encourage parents/guardians to visit the school and their child's classroom. Any individual visiting the school for any reason must first report to the school's office and receive a visitor's pass. If it should be necessary to set up a conference, please see the classroom teacher. It is extremely important that classroom activities are not interrupted.
All children are expected to be in attendance each day unless they are ill or a family emergency arises. Please remember that a written note explaining the absence is required after a student has been absent. We are asking a parent/guardian to call the school each day that a student is absent.
Classes begin at 7:45 a.m. daily. Students may enter the building at 7:30 a.m. for breakfast and 7:40 a.m. if they are not eating breakfast and line up in the designated areas.
Late Arrivals
Children who arrive after 8:00 a.m. are tardy and must report to the office for a late slip. a note must accompany your child to explain the reason for the tardiness. This late slip admits them to class and removes their name from the absence list for the day. We realize that there will be instances when your child must be tardy, but please try to avoid this whenever possible.
Parents/Guardians of students who are continually tardy will be asked to provide proof of residence. Tardiness interrupts the instructional time. Thank you in advance for your full cooperation.
Early Dismissal
We encourage you to schedule appointments after school hours (1:55 p.m.) If this is not possible, you must come to the main office to sign your child out. Students will not be allowed to sit and wait in the office. For your child's safety, the teachers will not release a child until the office calls for the child. For safety reasons, please provide appropriate ID upon request as well.
Bus Students
Parents/Guardians receive an updated bus schedule each year. Students should be at their designated stop five to seven minutes prior to pick-up time. We encourage parents to monitor students at the bus stop. Children are only to ride the bus to which they are assigned. There are no exceptions. They should remain seated while the bus is in motion and keep noise down by talking in normal classroom standards of conduct.
It is essential that a safe and orderly environment is present on each school bus. A referral from the bus driver for misconduct may result in a Suspension of the child's privilege of riding the bus. Fighting will not be tolerated.
Special needs students are picked up and dropped off at their individual residence. Parents/Guardians must be present and should be ready 15 minutes before designated bus arrival times.
Due to insurance regulations, Parents/Guardians are not allowed to ride the school bus.
Emergency School Closings
If the decision is made to close school due to inclement weather, the local television and radio stations will broadcast the information. You may also access the Prince George's County Public School's Website at www.pgcps.org to obtain emergency school closing or early school dismissal information.

Packed-bed chromatography is the main workhorse for the downstream processing of therapeutic proteins and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Packed-bed columns provide good binding capacity and scalability, combined with excellent resolution. The mass transfer process in packed-bed chromatography comprises several steps, including convection, pore diffusion, and film diffusion. The rate-limiting step of this process is pore diffusion (i.e., the slow diffusion of solutes into the dead-ended pores inside the chromatography media where the majority of the binding sites are located). As a result, residence time is an important parameter for column chromatography and often becomes the limiting factor of how fast the process can be run. High back pressure is another concern when operating packed-bed columns at a high flow rate. Membrane-adsorber (MA) chromatography technology was developed to overcome this mass transfer limitation (1). By coupling functional groups onto a filter-like porous matrix, diffusion-based mass transfer is eliminated because the filter pores are flow-through pores and allow solutes to be transported to the binding sites via convection. With MA chromatography, only film diffusion may limit mass transfer rate and the binding capacity is generally independent of the load flow rate over a wide range (2,3). Importantly, MAs can be manufactured with extremely shallow matrix beds (e.g., bed-heights in the mm range) that have very large cross-sectional area-to-volume ratio. Thus, MAs can be operated at much shorter residence time compared with packed-bed columns (e.g., seconds vs. minutes), thereby reducing the process time and increasing throughput at a large scale (4).

Retirement is a passage from one lifestyle to another. One way to think of the term "retire" is by placing a hyphen between the 'e' and the 't' and creating a new term—re-tire: To put on new treads.
Those who take the voyage seriously and do the right kind of retirement planning usually have a smoother trip and more fun.
Discussions with seasoned retirees indicate that there are many myths and misconceptions about retirement. Often you will hear these myths stated as fact. Here are some of the most common ones.

Could Warner Bros. Consider A 'Fringe' Movie?
Series with cult following may continue on big screen
It's a series that has survived around a half-dozen deaths during its days on television, so why not allow it to continue life in films?
"Fringe" will start its final season on Sept. 28, and while it appears the series will indeed jump into the future, there is a possibility that its actual future could include movie theaters.
"The film is very possible down the line," John Noble, who plays Dr. Walter Bishop, told Deadline.com at San Diego Comic-Con this past weekend.
The actor who plays his on-screen son, Joshua Jackson, agreed. "The show will live on in some form or another."
And why not? Many compare "Fringe" to a 21st century version of "The X-Files," which also had a cult following on Fox, and that show made two trips to the silver screen. "Fringe" could really follow right behind.
But then again, times are different than what they were when David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson took to the big screen in 1998. "The X-Files" was drawing 17 million viewers, and had just come down from a high of nearly 20 million viewers on average the year before.
That created a box office of $189.2 million worldwide, easily making back its $66 million budget for "The X-Files: Fight the Future."
Yet, "Fringe" has averaged around 4 million viewers this past season, and never averaged anything too far above 10 million. The chances of success for a "Fringe" film might be more closely compared to that of another Fox series, "Firefly," which lasted only a handful of episodes a decade ago, but went on to gross just $39 million worldwide at the box office as "Serenity" for Universal Pictures, falling short of its $40 million budget.
Interesting enough, that film was directed by "Firefly" creator Joss Whedon, who would go on to direct "The Avengers," which has now pulled in $613.6 million -- domestically.
That's not to say that Warner Bros. shouldn't try for a film. "Serenity" suffered from being directed too much to existing fans without trying to attract a new audience. "Fight the Future" had a much more broad appeal, and attracted movie-goers whether they were familiar with the Fox series or not.
Yet, if a "Fringe" film is made, and it has initial success like "Fight the Future," it might not want to wait too long to continue the franchise in theaters. "The X-Files: I Want to Believe" was released a decade later, and managed just $68.4 million at the worldwide box office. However, it was still a success, since the budget for that outing was just $30 million.
"Fringe" still has a final season to contend with in the meantime, and that returns Sept. 28 at 9 p.m. ET on Fox.
Airlock Alpha's coverage of San Diego Comic-Con on the GenreNexus is brought to you exclusively by Roddenberry Entertainment.

What information is needed when reporting water waste?
My neighbors are watering all the time, why don't they get a notice.
How do I know if I have a leak and what do I do about it?
The first notification should contain detailed information on the water waste identified on your property. Most often we post a door hanger for overwatering. Signs of overwatering include water runoff, algae on the sidewalk or flooding. We recommend shortening watering times for each cycle to reduce runoff from your property and checking your irrigation system for leaks or broken pipes or sprinklers.

Scientists Announce Successful Human Cloning — to Kill and Use for Research
by Bethany MonkA research article published in the medical journal Cell describes that scientists are able to clone human embryos and then kill them to obtain embryonic stem cells.
Pro-life advocates oppose this process because human cloning involves the purposeful creation and then destruction of human life for research purposes. There is also a concern that the desire for human cloning will lead to the exploitation of women as scientists look for ways to gather large amounts of human eggs.
An international group of scientists at the Oregon National Primate Research Center announced their research in the June 6 issues of the journal. According to the article, they developed four cloned human embryos in a dish for about 10 days. This created about 150 to 200 cells. This is the stage — the blastocyst stage — when embryos created in vitro are usually placed within the woman where they are carried until birth.

Listen to this story;
I had a wound (been told by a few folks it was a bite of some kind) on my big toe that was deep and ugly for 7 months.
I had the doctor look at it 3 times and he kept saying it was doing ok, and that I should not Buy cheap Cialis Online put any pressure on it. I was therefore walking with a walker and a large padding on the bottom of my foot so as not to put pressure on my toe or rub it. My legs and ankles were really feeling some pain and discomfort from walking abnormally.
I decided to look for alternative healings to help myself. I thought about sea salt and got on the web to find out if sea salt would help heal wounds or bites. I was lead to the Ocean Aid web page and decided to give the foam a try. After only 3 and a half weeks, I am so happy to say my toe is healed and I am walking on it. I give this Ocean Aid foam 5 stars. Ocean Aid is GREAT!!

This generation of Americans have been.
Tested by crises that steeled our resolve and proved our resilience.
The decade of war is now and it.
A President Obama may have taken our troops out of Iraq and -- Afghanistan.
But that should not mean the war is ending.
Al-Qaeda and its off -- have taken a strong hold in parts of northern Africa and they're targeting and killing Americans in the region.
The most recent attack was in Algeria.
Where a natural gas facility was targeted by an al-Qaeda affiliate.
Dozens of hostages including Americans were killed.
Right next to Algeria is Libya.
Where this past September 11 ambassador Chris Stevens and three others were killed when terrorists stormed the American Consulate in -- Gaza.
Libya has been politically unstable since the 2011.
Death of president Moammar Gadhafi which brings us to the nation of Mali where last year al-Qaeda.
In the Islamic Mike Reid RAQ I -- for a short.
Actually took over the country.
In recent weeks French forces have been targeting select areas to topple a Q I am which has ties to other attacks in the region.
Instability in -- has created an expanding safe haven for terrorists.
Who look to extend their influence and plot further attacks.
Of the kind we saw just last week in Algeria there's no doubt that the Algerian terrorists.
Have weapons from Libya it.
There's no doubt that the finale and remnants of a Q I -- have weapons from Libya.
Joining me now is New York congressman Peter King congressman glad to have you here.
And I I -- begin right talking about what happened in Algeria just a week ago.
Four dozen people killed three of them Americans and an Algerian energy side what do we know about who was behind that killing and the motives.
Well to me it's very clear that -- have al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and even affiliates of there -- but all al-Qaeda supporters.
Who very much involved in this they were the ones who directly that this was something which I believe was planned over a period of time.
And I think what we can say is -- North Africa Africa in general but North African particular.
Is going to be to the Obama administration when Afghanistan was -- the 1990s the Clinton administration is really gathering place.
For the Islamic militants who -- -- launching pad and you -- North Africa it's very close obviously you're.
It's it did it could talk -- the United States not our allies so really North Africa I believe there's a new work.
A battleground in the war and an Al -- war against us and what should be -- war against them.
And wait wait for long time thought that the the war with al-Qaeda and Islamic extremism was from the Middle East.
Is this like whack a mole where yet strike and in one place and they pop up somewhere else and they really have not been so much on the run and disappearing they just relocated to a different geographical region.
-- governor they've had elements you know gone back over the years in Kenya and Tanzania.
-- they had that -- -- Bob -- some -- -- or Iran and Nigeria but it really now is a concerted effort said that it is going up into North African tamale.
Libya Algeria Mauritania.
And this these are very effective fight is -- ruthless.
And there are a combination of their own group al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb but also they get people from Iraq they get remnants of our core al-Qaeda.
They get -- -- Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula it really is an international movement.
And wherever there's a vacuum that they -- they fill it.
That's why I think when the president really hurt us over the last several years is somehow implying -- the war against al-Qaeda is over.
-- Corel Corel Qaeda has been hurt.
But they've -- -- size and in some ways a Qaeda is more of a threat to us now than it was prior to September 11.
Because it is so decentralized.
It is or metastasized or more so much as coming out so many different directions and I'm afraid we're letting our guard down.
There been reports even from the New York Times that some of the people involved in the Algerian attack.
We're also the same people involved in the attack and been Ghazi do you have any information to substantiate that.
You know something -- that I don't want to go into the details than that but there is a very yet real concern.
There's no doubt that there were -- are people who -- -- -- -- the same -- yeah this is the same.
What a group of people in many ways -- have to leave it that another CDs.
These those countries -- to take -- Libya Mali Algeria Mauritania I was talking about a -- that al-Qaeda that collection which is either.
Totally united all working together in -- confederation.
And certainly what happened and Algeria I can tell you certainly is related Somalia to Libya and to -- Gaza.
Congressman do you think the president is is taking.
This situation.
As seriously as he needs to.
I think the president is it's almost a schizophrenic approach on the one hand.
What he's done as far as you're killing some of the top al-Qaeda leaders.
Is very positive.
On the other hand by constantly talking about how we're going to be.
Pulling back.
How you inserted in the normal speech that there's something that the effect that.
What does -- have to be perpetual does that become -- it's about making it seem to do we want war and answer your question I don't believe that.
President Obama is is doing enough.
And he doesn't want a level with the American people and that's we keeps talking about how.
We're winning in there on the run yet we're winning but they're also in many -- stronger than ever -- This is that the real long -- so long to -- paraphrase John Kennedy is no real long twilight struggle.
Congressman Peter King thank you very much for joining us -- -- today.
Governor thank you Mike thank you.

Rain, some snow expected this week
Heavy rain could begin Friday
Originally published February 20, 2013 at 9:34 a.m., updated February 20, 2013 at 8:20 p.m.
With colder weather settling in, residents at higher elevations in Clark County could see snow toward the end of the week.
A series of storms will bring rain and mountain snow to Southwest Washington and Northwest Oregon, according to the National Weather Service in Portland.
Snow levels are at 2,000 to 3,000 feet in the Cascades and the Oregon Coast ranges now, said meteorologist Clinton Rockey. During the weekend, however, Rockey said those levels could plunge to 1,000 feet.
The strongest storm of the week is expected to hit Friday night, with high winds forecast.
In Vancouver, the chance of rain climbs to 100 percent by Friday.
"Sunshine will be in short supply the next couple of days," Rockey said.

Rain, wind may yield to low-elevation snow Thursday

The first and most obvious is cost: By eliminating middlemen and selling direct, a company like Axiom can offer speakers at more affordable prices. Another advantage is the home audition: Axiom and many other Web-based companies offer a 30-day trial period. (The initial shipping cost is free, although Axiom makes you pay the return freight if you choose to pass.)
In this case, you can also take comfort in Axiom's longtime involvement with the speaker-measurement and psychoacoustical research programs at the National Research Council of Canada. This government-sponsored program is partly responsible for the many excellent speaker brands that have emerged from Canada, including Energy, Mirage, Paradigm, and PSB (see this issue's review of PSB's Synchrony speakers). If you require some kind of objective seal of approval for speakers, association with the NRC is about as good as it gets.
I was pleasantly surprised by this system's sleek and stately looks. The angled front corners and tapered cabinets of the Millennia M80 v2 towers and the VP150 v2 center speaker provide a slimming effect that's visually appealing, and the look is echoed by the QS8 v2 surrounds' angled front baffles. Build quality is excellent: Cabinets are solidly constructed and furnished with gold-plated binding posts. The towers come with both spikes and rubber feet for carpets or bare floors. My system had an attractive Mansfield Beech finish with black grilles, although other options are available.
The M80 tower - a 40-inch-tall, three-way design - has a pair each of 6.5-inch aluminum-cone woofers, 5.25-inch midrange drivers, and, unusually, dual 1-inch titanium tweeters, with the second tweeter present to beef up the M80's power-handling and dynamic capabilities. There's also a pair of bass ports located on the back.
So, this article was posted three and a half years ago, and not a single person has noticed or commented on the fact that the first paragraph repeats 4 times. Doesn't anyone proofread this site?? I'd have thought that maybe Al Griffin, being the author of the piece, might have stopped by at some point to check to ensure that his article was posted properly. Personally, I gave up trying to read the article as I just got too frustrated.
I guess no one from Axiom cares about the article either as I'd expect they would complain about it if they knew how messed up it is - funny thing is: they have a link on their site to this very review.
I wonder if anyone will even notice my comment here, let alone actually fix the article... I guess we'll just have to wait and see...
Apologies...we should probably hang up a "Pardon our Appearance" sign while we're in the midst of a large cleanup project, but we'd hoped it'd be more-or-less invisible.
Here's an explanation (and it has nothing to do with Axiom or the author not caring). We've just finished a major revision of the site (which for some of these older articles means they've hopped frameworks at least twice, if not three times now); during such projects there are inevitably some problems porting over things that originally designed to display on older versions of this site. We're making our way through slowly and fixing whatever we find that's malfunctioning, but given the scale of things we haven't gotten back this far yet.
Thanks for your understanding.

Gowns galore
From ready-to-wear to couture gowns, you'll be spoiled for choice when it comes to wedding dresses
View nowUpon finding "The One", I tried it on. I slipped it over my head, zipped it up and it fit like a glove! No alterations were needed what so ever! I love and am still in love with my amazing Henry Roth Gown! Not to mention the man who designed it!
Beautiful dress- made with great attention to detail and quality. Looked beautiful in photos.
I am still completely in love with my gown Isabella. She was perfect. I tried her on in the first store I went to and I knew she was the one the moment I saw her.
I wore the Lindsay dress for my wedding day, thrilled, so well made and absolutely stunning!
My dress was simply amazing, and everyone loved it. Made me feel so beautiful and was comfortable and easy to dance the night away in.
Sizes are very realistic, only needed minor amendments, looked and felt amazing.
It was my second marriage and I wanted something different. Chose the Lindsay dress in cornfower blue. Beautiful.
Henry Roth have some really different and unique styles. Especially ones that suit those who don't want the classic white strapless style. I knew what I wanted and they had exactly that, and at a reasonable price.
Perfect fit amazing dress!
Fantastic Dresses, very affordable, large sizes.
Loved my Zoe dress. Made my day very special I felt so glamorous. Thank your for having such beautiful designs that suit all body types.
Hope dress. Amazing dress and quality. Formal enough but not over the top and very comfortable an great to dance in. Passionate aussie designer
Initially I was very reluctant about getting a strapless dress but it was so well constructed that I never felt worried about it falling down. I did not have adjust it once during the night and I was absolutely gorgeous. Henry is a lovely and friendly person too.
Dresses were ordered from different stores and were both exquisit!
Dress was beautifully designed, fit like a glove and came before the due date! Way above expectations :)
Everyone loved my dress......THANK YOU....
It was the second dress I tried on, and I feel inlove with it immediately, as the dress was a one off, it was nice to know that I was the only person who would have that dress
Henry Roth is an absolute genious!
We met with Henry on a designer day. He was wonderful and gave us heaps of advice and a good price too. Would definitely buy another Henry Roth design.
Went above and beyond, I meet Henry at a designers night, and he custom made me an amazing dress for the price of one of his online dresss
AMAZING! Service, detail, willingness to help.
Henry's just wonderful! He personally responds to emails sent to him and his dresses are just stunning. I wore 86259 as my cake cutting gown.
Exactly what I wanted. Second (and last) dress I tried on. I wish I could wear it again someday!
The Bridesmaid's dresses were perfect in style and colour. And both girls loved their dresses (same style, different colours) and will wear them again.
I loved my dress and I still do, when i meet henry at maggies bridal he was amazing and made all suggestions for my dress, which i used for my day
Stunning! What more can I say......amazing dresses at such affordable prices. I luuurrrve my dress.
My dress was everything that I could have dreamed of
The dress was stunning and reasonably priced
Amazing designs and colour
My dress was perfect!!!! I ordered it from Sugar & Spice in Strathpine because the sales lady deserved my business for how excellent and helpful she was. They made the dress to fit especially making it short for me being not so tall :P, with my measurements they made it perfectly with no alterations needed. The dress is top quality and for such a well known designer (has been on project runway etc..) the price was a lot lower than those of half the quality.
so helpful and charming, and excellent price at the sample sale
Beautiful Dress
Henry Roth has the most stunning dresses and is able to cater for all styles. His dresses are so comfortable to wear which helps on such a long big day
the dress was amazing, I wish I could wear it again and again. Very good price
I loved my Henry Roth dress - well made, beautifully fitting and gorgeous fabrics! I felt like a movie star on the day.
Thanks Sonja for the glowing review! We'd love to see your wedding pictures up on our website. Just click on: http://www.henryroth.com.au/real-brides/submit-your-wedding.html All of our very best wishes from the team at Henry Roth (email@example.com)
I absolutely loved all of the dresses, my wedding dress particularly. I will love it forever. I had a light gold Henry Josef dress and the bridesmaids had Henry Roth dresses. They were beautiful. The details made them. Each dress had a brooch, tying all the dresses together. The colour of the bridesmaids dresses were stunning.
Beautiful & affordable price

Takes forever to recharge, but can be used corded if necessary. Good price for a basic shaver.
I ordered one of these from Walmart at this price - and returned it the next day after I received it.
If you are new to electric shaving or have never owned a decent shaver, you'll most likely be happy with it. I get a feeling that is where all the glowing reviews at the Walmart web site are coming from. Great shaver if you've never owned a shaver! Justin Beiber would probably like it...
But if you've ever owned anything decent - just pass on this thing. The motor is much slower than most Norelco shavers, with the lowest grade heads and cheap assembly. Definitely built to a rock bottom price point. I had to go over the same spots over and over to get a decent shave. The only plus outside of the dirt cheap price is that you can use it plugged in as it's not a waterproof model.
Note that there is no trimmer on this model.
A suggestion - there are a couple of Remington rotary shavers at the $30 price point that smoke this thing. Very close shave, runs faster, better floating head design, water clean and has a trimmer. One is the R4-5150 (30 on-line) and the lesser version without the charge level indicator is $30 in stores with a $5 rebate. Main issue with them is that you can't shave with them while plugged in (I assume a safety issue - they are washable).
Why are some of these shavers less than $50 and others are way over $100?
Is this the model that Santa Claus rides in the commercial?

Friday, May 24, 2013 5:01amSome photos on Twitter ended Anthony Weiner's congressional career. The latest online image was not quite as damaging. Weiner has launched his campaign to be mayor of New York City. A gorgeous city skyline showed up on his homepage. But it wasn't of New York. It was Pittsburgh's skyline.
Friday, May 24, 2013 4:55amFracking is a way of bringing up natural gas by pumping water and chemicals into the ground. Germany's powerful beer industry is worried that fracking would pollute groundwater.
Friday, May 24, 2013 2:02amThere is some political willingness, but because China is highly decentralized politically, the Communist Party has only limited influence over provincial governments and how they regulate their dirty factories. The powerful state-owned oil companies have also resisted pressure to produce cleaner-burning fuel.
Friday, May 24, 2013 2:00amThe Iranian presidential election is just weeks away, and voters are faced with a very narrow range of pro-regime candidates to choose from. All the high-profile or independent candidates have been eliminated by the Guardian Council. One man considered unfit to run has already held the post of president.
Friday, May 24, 2013 2:00amThe collapse sent people and vehicles into the water Thursday night. Authorities say there were no fatalities. The bridge, about an hour north of Seattle, lost its northernmost span — taking out all lanes in both directions.

Shaquanna Lee is serving as an intern during session for Rep. Garland E. Pierce of Wagram.
Lee is a 2010 Scotland High School graduate.
She is the daughter of Curtis Dockery Jr. and Linda Lee of Laurinburg.
"It is truly an honor to serve as an intern at the North Carolina General Assembly,"Lee said. "Being a junior at North Carolina Central University the opportunity to serve a part of an office in government is unlikely, considering the high fluctuation of students that are in daily competition amongst one another. Fortunately with my hard work ethic and devoted dedication for education I was granted the opportunity to serve as an intern. This internship is important to me because it gives me the chance to have insight from a personal perspective on governmental issues. Not only do I get to see how Bills are formulated, I also get to see if they are going to be passed and placed into effect."
She is majoring in political science.

5. | Flamboyant | ||
Flamboyant is another word for gay; as in colorful, vibrant, ect. It is also often used in association to the word "gay" as in a fairy, fruity guy, homosexual. Used more towards men than woman. Which in a way makes sense since most gay men are very flamboyant, like Jeffrey star for instance, with his hot pink hair and super long eye lashes. "He's very flamboyant, I think he might be gay."
1. | flamboyant | ||
adj. florid (writing speech) usually in a freestyle.
brillantly colorful Big L was the best flamboyant rapper.
2. | flamboyant | ||
1. Adjective:
Mostly means over the top, loud, colourful. Can be applied to objects or people. Often associated with gay men, but does not MEAN "gay" as some previous additions seem to imply. 1. The float at the carnival was very flamboyant.
2. Geoff is being very flamboyant tonight. |
3. | Flamboyant | ||
The superpower ability to float on water while engulfed in flames Little did the evil Dr. Mordock realize that our hero was flamboyant! setting her on fire allowed her to safely float on water.
4. | flamboyant | ||
FABUUUUUUUUULOUS! Jane: I asked Ron to the dance, but he says that I'm not his type... what's that supposed to mean?
Jen: Don't you know Jane? Ron is *flamboyant* Jane: ahhh! |
6. | flamboyant | ||
(adj) FABULOUS! Some people find it annoying, bite me. Johnny Weir, the national gold medalist in men's figure skating, is quite flamboyant, and he doesn't give a crap about what others think of it because he lives for himself and enjoys his life.
7. | Flamboyant | ||
real meaning isn't used in everyday talk
The talk meaning is gay MAN he is is so flamboyant
