Carroll ISD Board discusses preliminary 2012-13 budget, bond projects
By Lena Price
The Carroll ISD Board of Trustees may consider a possible two-cent property tax increase during its July 16 meeting.
The board set the tentative date at Monday's meeting during a preliminary discussion about the 2012-13 budget. The public would be invited to give their input at the July meeting.
"On July 16, the board would have the option to adopt the new tax rate," said Robb Welch, assistant superintendent for financial services. "That would be necessary if the board decides to move beyond the current $1.04 maintenance and operation tax rate."
In addition to the budget discussion, the board approved a proposal to apply to the Texas High Performance Schools Consortium. The state legislature created the consortium last session to collect input from school districts about the future of digital learning and how to asses student progress. The Commissioner of Education will select 20 districts of varying sizes to serve in the consortium.
JJ Villarreal, assistant superintendent for student services, said Carroll ISD is already working to include more 21st century teaching methods in the classroom.
"We're trying to provide a consistent and standard use of technology for digital learning, which includes the use of interactive white boards and tablets to get immediate feedback from students," Villarreal said.
Several board members expressed reservations about the monetary and time commitment being a member of the consortium might demand.
"I still think that we would want to be a part of this, but I hate some of the unknowns," said Sue Armstrong, board vice president. "I'm concerned this would place an undo burden on some of our administrators, because we're already spread a little thin at the central office."
The board passed the motion 6-0, deciding the possibility to influence the next generation of accountability standards outweighed any potential negatives.
Derek Citty, assistant superintendent for administrative services, also updated the board on the status of the 2009 bond funds.
The board approved a contractor to complete renovations and additions to the new administration center located in the former Carroll Middle School campus on East Dove Road. The center, which will cost a total of about $5.1 million, is one of the last major projects financed by bond election.
"We're starting to near the finish line on the bond program," Citty said. "What remains are several smaller things we committed to the community during the bond proposition. For example, we committed to redoing the security interface at Carroll Senior High School."
Citty said the board may consider renovating some of the science labs at the school while the security updates are under way.
"Some of those science labs are a little dated and worn down," Citty said. "We've identified some of the things we can do better. As a former science teacher myself, I'm excited about some of the innovative ideas about how to set up a laboratory."
The board will not decide whether to proceed with the lab renovations until all of the contracts from the bond are in place, most likely by Aug. 1.
"At that point we'll have a better idea of where we are on the bond project and what we can actually accomplish," Citty said. "Once we fulfill that commitment, then we can start looking at what we want to accomplish after that."

Earlier this week, London Fashion Week wrapped, leaving a trail of fabulously dressed Brits in the wake of its fashion shows, parties, and, in the case of Stella McCartneys now infamous dinner party, even a flash mob. Our editor at large, Derek Blasberg, the man behind our weekly Mr. Blasbergs Best-Dressed List, was there, soaking in all the stylishness. What did he find? In traditional English quirkiness, one of his favorite things from the front rows of London was the whimsical daywear. Derek says he never saw more fun, festive trousers: Alexa Chung in an oversize paisley print from Jonathan Anderson, Poppy Delevingne in polka-dot Topshop trousers, Laura Bailey in a baggy light-pink pair from Christopher Kane, and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in velvet pants from Burberry that were drop-dead sexy. Not that the week was all about slacks. There were some standout stylish moments too, many of which came from the aforementioned McCartney dance party. There was Kate Moss in a sheer paneled mini that left little to the imagination (more on that a little later), Michelle Williams in a black lace and leather Mulberry dress that was both sugar and spice, and an adorably put together Kate Bosworth in a tweed pencil skirt, little-boys sweater, and furry stilettos. However, Derek managed to find one woman who combined both the comfortable elegance of trousers with the afterhours glamour of eveningwear. Shes a certified fashion icon. Click through the slide show to see who he is referring to.
Finally, the heat cooled off and the fashion was able to heat up. Or so thinks Derek Blasberg, our editor at large, as he reports in this edition of Mr. Blasbergs Best-Dressed List, his roundup of a week in style. The biggest red-carpet trend he saw this week was color, and lots of it. A very freshly single Jennifer Lopez rocked the pavement in an electric psychedelic Pucci print dress and Freida Pinto went citrus in a simple Michael Kors shift dress, which was the same color as Maggie Qs bright and adorable long-sleeved camisole and shorts. In addition to color, the summer brought out the pastels and florals in some unlikely ladies. Were looking at you, Leigh Lezark, the DJ who has preferred black in the past but went floaty and flowery at a party in the Hamptons. Joining her in the sweet serenade was sister duo Poppy and Chloe Delevingne at a polo match in the English countryside, actress Jaime King in Valentino at a fundraiser in L.A. and model Miranda Kerr running errands in a sleeveless wrap dress. And finally, there is black. While its not exactly a summer color, it still is chic. And since its no longer hotter than Hades in this town, some girls, like Sarah Murdoch and Charlize Theron, wearing Roland Mouret and Isabel Marant respectively, kept it basic.
Some say it's gauche to wear a designer's clothes to his or her show. But what about the designer's face? Leigh Lezark showed off a cute tribute to Olivier Theyskens at his Theyskens' Theory runway show today. The shirt is by Deer Dana; if you're a Theyskens fan girl too, you can get your own on their website.

Last night, MAC Cosmetics celebrated its latest collaboration a collection with Alice + Olivia by Stacey Bendet at Beauty Bar in NYC. Partygoers included Leigh Lezark and Bendet (shown here) and outspoken Real Housewife Kelly Killoren Bensimon. The carefree spirit of Alice + Olivia was apparent as people lined up for manicures with the new polishes shades of matte black, metallic purple, and creamy turquoise. The line also consists of pigment powders and lip glosses in nude and neon colors. And they come packaged, appropriately, in a replica of the designer's fall 2010 inspiration board.

If every busy professional could internalize Crenshaw's message... we'd all get much more done in less time.
A fresh take on the problem of timewasters in our corporate and personal lives, The Myth of Multitasking will change your paradigm about what is productive and what is not. I loved the concept of 'switchtasking' versus multitasking.
Invaluable is the next logical step in career development. This story will show you step-by-step how to increase your value in the market and increase workplace harmony.
I see my kids more. People can depend on me getting things done on a certain schedule. I appreciate Dave and all that he's done to help me have a better life.
Invaluable is operations excellence for small companies. Crenshaw's easy-to- follow style explains practical methods for analyzing what one is doing and figuring out how to be more productive- more invaluable.
Played 9 holes of golf today - all due to you, Dave.
Dave helped free up at least thirty percent of my time. He radically advanced my organization and career.
Invaluable bridges the gap between employee - manager relationships and productivity. Companies that implement this message not only stand to improve their bottom line but also make their work environments happier for everyone.
"It's been a couple of years and I have maintained all of the instructions that Dave Crenshaw helped me with. I saved myself so much time."
"My wife and I are actually spending more quality time together, less time on unimportant things related to business. My family life has increased and improved."
"I've referred other people because I felt Dave was well worth the investment."
"It was the best money spent this year."
"I now perform better as a business owner. My mind is free and I'm more organized."
At Zappos.com, our core values include pursuing growth and learning, doing more with less, and building a positive team and family spirit. Dave's message can resonate with anyone looking to live those values and make themselves invaluable.
Dave helped us to increase our revenues and help me to feel that I can handle the things that I have on my desk.
Our meeting attendee survey proved him to be the top rated speaker... Dave's presentation was inter-active, provided great solutions and really made people think about the positive changes they could make.
I had Dave Crenshaw come to one of my events and speak to about four hundred of my members. Since that first event I've hired Dave again to come and do another session for my people because they just can't get enough of him. Book him before someone else does.
"It's the one service I've paid for and utilized that I can refer without any hesitation whatsoever."
Dave did a phenomenal job... high integrity, tremendous content. If you're considering hiring Dave for an event I highly, highly recommend it. He went above and beyond.
I was blown away. I love his wisdom, I love his humor, I love his clarity, I love his examples and I'm a fan. I'm a raving fan. Dave's the man.
"Dave helped my businesses grow through focusing on just one or two things that make the biggest impact. He's always been a good mentor, a good friend and just a good person."
"I feel in greater control of my business. I have learned how to control and use my time wisely."
"Dave's unique system-oriented, yet personal approach to coaching and his breadth of experience has made all the difference. We've received demonstrable short term and long term payoff. Dave is truly a superhero!"
Dave helped free up at least thirty percent of my time. He radically advanced my organization and career.

A little story of my favorite rack toy experiences. Others may have simular tales and may share with the group. As the rack toy book mentioned here has kinda resurrected these memories. Here goes...
Part of the routine on my childhood was to attend church late sundays with my Father and Sister. My Mother was usually absent as she worked niteshift and my older Brothers just refused. My sister and I were not old enough to evoke this privilage. Most evenings on our return trip home. My Father had to stop at a small family market to restock supplies. This was before the onset of the Super Markets. We would arrive just in time before closing, but the owner would always allow the time needed for my Dad to grab a few necessities. This store offered little to interest kids, except 2 circular rack of cheap toys. I remember these were usually filled with oddball toys like Bullwinkle or Popeye playset items. (You know, toys inspired by cartoon characters that have'nt seen air time in over 20 years.) Dick Tracy Dart guns or bagged Army men. On rare occassions they would have something interesting. On at least 2 occassions they had the AHI friction cycles. One time it was Batman and later it would be Spiderman. (Thanks to PlaidStallions for helping to ID these lost toy Memories for me!!!)
Dad was a great guy and would reward our good behavior with one of these low priced toy items. Those few hours left before having to sleep and ready ourselves for school were always happier thanks to these toy items. I fondly remember speeding Batman and later Spidey about the livingroom. Then removing the rubberery like figure from the cycle for action. Thier premolded cycle riding position didnt decrease thier playablity. It was printed on the rear of the cardboard packaging that it could be used as a ramp. Once opened though. The packaging was quickly discarded. My guess is Dad was hiding the evidence of this impulse buy.
Funny I can remember these play items more clearly and fondly than most of the higher priced items I recieved on Christmas's or Birthday's.

....... THE PIERZ JOURNAL VOL. 4. PIERZ, MORRISON COUNTY, MINNESOTA, MAY 2_>. 1918. XO. 49. HAPPENINGS HERE AND THERE Perham The hotels at the different lakes around Perham are opened and ready for quests. Large string's of fish are being caught daily. St. Cloud. St Cloud has just experienced the healthiest year it has had for a number of years, according to the report of the department of public health of St. Cloud. Swanville—John Levine, the 7 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. John Levine, of Upsola, answered death's call, after a short illness caused from blood poisoning which originated from a cat scratch. New York Mills-Miss Minnie Reynolds has resigned from the central office here after holding the position for the past six- years. She left for Pleasant Park, where she will assist ber parents at the summer resort. Little Palls—E. E. Collins, secretary of the newly organized Little Falls Gas company, states that a crew of men will start work next week examining the old gas mains in the city to see Avhether or uot they are serviceable. Royalton Banner: A contract has been let jointly by ths town boards of Little Falls town and Bellevue for the construction of a road on the town line beginning at the west corner near the Mississippi river and extending east 140 rods. Fred Keehr will do the construction at a contract price of 15400. Onamia—Both saw mills at Onamia are how in operation. The mills secure a supply of logs every year although it seems that there are none left in the country for such extensive operations. John McClure operates one mill and Charles Gravel the other. Both cut quite a quantity of lumber each day. Onamia When Lars Eriksson returned home last week from a tour of the laka reigon, he had instructions from Duluth to go to Nisswa, a place about 15 miles north of Brainerd, to put up a pipe organ in the Congregational church there. The organ came from Massachusetts and it will take Mr. Eriksson several weeks to erect it. He left for Nisswa Monday morning. St. Cloud — Joseph Elg, a native of Germany, aged Go, a city charge, died at St. Joseph's home. So far as is known, he has no living relatives in this country. He had married when a young man but he and his wife had been living apart. He came to St. Cloud a number of years ago and worked at various places until he received a stroke of paralysis. LOCALS AGAIN WIN SIXTH ANNUAL LOW FARE FOR VILLAGE COUNCIL BUCKMAN HERE WEATHER AND SCORE 6 TO 3. (Hy the Journal's Sporting- Editor. I "There is no use in talking, you will have to give it to the Pierz boys." The above extract taken from last week's Journal thoroughly proves the correctness of the entire article. If anything more were needed, we would respectfully refer you to last Sunday's game. Yes, it was a bingle, a regular humdinger too. We regret it exceeingly that the time is so limited as to not enable us to put up a more ap propriate monument—one built from Italian marble. However, we will erect just a plain, everyday one from granite, which follows: To The Memory OF THE Blues. Gets Draft For Insurance, St. Cloud Times: Grand Knight Chris Schmidt, of St. Cloud council Knights of Columbus, received a draft for $2,000 from the order, payable to the heirs of Frank A. Kerich. a former member, who was killed in an auto accident near Little Falls recently. Keep posted by reading the Journal's "Business Locals" .column. The Transcript says: If the Pierz players have any grounds for the confidence which they express over the result of the game Little Falls will need the support of a large bunch of rooters Sunday as well as the band. The locals are not worrying and expect to beat the players from the Soo village so bad that they will not hanker after any more games here this season. Did they do it? Not as anyone heard of. It was simply a case of, "we have met the enemy and they are ours." To a man in this neck o' the woods, it looks as though the Blues need a few good players and not quite so much over-contidence and brass bands. T'is too bad the band did not have a dirge, for it was sadly needed upon their return home. There is no doubt but that the Pierz umpire may have made a few errors which are excusable. But he certainly made no bad breaks, such as the Blues' umpire did. It's out- advice, sonny, to get a book of rules on the National game, then select some quiet nook and study 'em. A failing- attempt at bunting* is always a strike and not a ball. The sporting editor greatly regrets to see such marked exhibition of disgraceful conduct as was evinced at Sunday's game by some of the Little I^alls rooters as well as a couple of the players. Such as throwing- rocks at basemen, coaches, etc., also promiscuously throwing of bats and endeavoring to spike. Such conduct only puts a blemish on the good old game. Don't do it, but play a gentlemen's game and leave such practice for bull dogs and puguglies. A prominent citizen of Little Falls was heard to remark: "Vot's der madder mid our poys? They all go mid der pack alley home, all readyyet?'' The All Stars or Sporting Editor's Colts, area noble bunch of young men and we justly feel proud of 'em. They will yet make their mark in the annals of base ball. COMMENCEMENT. N. M. D. A. MEET. Diplomas for 138Eighth grade graduates of the schools of the county will be ready at Supt.

This actually wasn't too bad except that switch out of Gavantula into Charizard. That was pretty much asking for a OHKO no matter what Charizard threw at it. :/
Pretty close regardless, though. Shame you didn't have Pain Split or Recover on your Reuniclus. Might've done some tide turning there.

Bentley GT Speed Convertible focuses on luxury, performance, not tech
Bentley's Continental GT Speed Convertible is so new that pricing has not yet been announced. So I was left to guess how much money I was putting in peril when Bentley dropped one off in the CNET garage for a short loan. Judging from Bentley's current lineup, I ballparked it at between two and three. Hundreds of thousands of dollars, that is.
People who buy Bentleys probably don't ask the first question that came to my mind: what makes this car worth that much money?

Earth is an ocean planet. Our home world's abundance of water -- and life -- makes it unique in our solar system. Other planets, plus a few moons, have ice, atmospheres, seasons and even weather, but only on Earth does the whole complicated mix come together in a way that encourages life -- and lots of it.
Featured Mission: Earth Science Missions Orbiting spacecraft study our home world from above as a whole system and aid in our understanding how the planet is changing.

I brought these for some light weight curtains that I also got from overstock...they worked perfectly...but I wouldn't put heavy curtains on these.
Color not accurate. I was looking for a gold, not a brown. I know that the item I received (gold antique button) is the correct item since the shape is the same as the one I selected. However, the color is a shimmery chocolate brown (not gold) that it does not even closely match the hooks or drapes I selected. I'll accept it, but wanted to prevent others from experiencing what I did. I rated this as poor because the color needs to be accurately listed.
I love the way they make the curtains stand out in the room and really dresses up the room.
Nice curtain rods if you aren't looking upclose. The finials are made of plastic, but you can't tell unless you actually touch them, which no one is going to do. They look great though.
I wish I would have noticed the size of the tube a bit more as it was smaller than I had wanted but it works fine. There is not alot of distance from the wall with the bracket provided. The ends fall off easily
These were so low quality that I didn't bother to pull them all the way out of the box. Flimsy, brassy and all around poor quality.
nice curtain rod for the price; did not like that the end ornaments just pushed on...a little cheapish.
Great value, don't have to go all over trying to purchase ten that match in different sizes. Look wonderful. Very happy!!!!
I would tell my friends & neighbors that this tod is better & cheaper than going to the home supply stores.

Critical Warning: Don't Upgrade CCUserDefault to v2.1.2

ALBANY Marines from Marine Corps Logistics Base Albany joined public safety officials and civilians for the Special Forces Run through Albany Tuesday.
Part of Operation One Voice -- an ongoing effort to raise awareness and support for the families and children of wounded or killed special operations forces from all of the U.S. military branches -- the "leap-frog" run goes through cities between Atlanta and Tampa, organizers say.
Tuesday, a contingent of special operators, Marines, public safety runners and civilians ran roughly 2.5 miles through Albany starting at the former theater on Gillionville Road and ending up at Veterans Amphitheater downtown.

"Designmatters allows us to look at the world as a classroom with an eye toward changing it for the better. We aspire to redefine and expand the role of the artist and designer into one who is a catalyst for social change and innovation." Mariana Amatullo, Vice President, Designmatters Department
An engaged mode of art and design education that forms creative leaders, Designmatters provides the know-how and aspiration to shape the futures we truly desire for a more sustainable and equitable world.
Through research, advocacy and action, Designmatters engages, empowers and leads an ongoing exploration of art and design as a positive force in society.
Designmatters is integrated across all the educational departments at Art Center College of Design. Activities are organized at 3 key levels:
As an educational magnet and research division for the college, we conceive of projects for the curriculum, oversee the DM Concentration at the undergraduate level, and partner with Graduate Media Design Practices in the MDP/Field Track;
As an agent for social impact educational projects, we are a guarantor for implementation and assessment of projects led by students, faculty and alumni;
As an external relations center for strategic partnership building, we leverage art and design education as tool for positive change in the world.
As Art Center's social impact department, Designmatters is where local, national and global issues are encountered head-on. Participants are in the world, with the world.
Values that are embedded into the department are filtered into the curriculum, programs and projects. These values represent the spirit of Designmatters, and consist of:
Commitment: We are dedicated to looking at, confronting, researching and addressing real-world issues, and we endeavor to innovate through art and design.
Relevance: We strive to be a model for relevancy in education. We open doors for organizations to engage with artists and designers and see them as key contributors to their mission.
Engagement: We look at the world as our classroom, with an eye toward changing it for the better. Our students engage in experiential learning, giving them an insider's awareness of the challenges confronting communities around the block or around the world.
Collaboration: We view art and design as a space that invites collaboration with other disciplines, such as: development, science, business, engineering, and anthropology. It is in the intersection between distinct areas of inquiry that we often find the most opportunity for innovation.
Empathy: We believe that artists and designers can be uniquely compassionate as how they relate to the lives of others, and with that comes great responsibility.
Action-led outcomes: We see art and design students as having the gift of creativity and the skills to execute a vision, and when immersed in a real-world context, they can be empowered to become changemakers.
"Turning outward is key to the future of higher education in art and design. Designmatters provides the platform where that can happen." Lorne M. Buchman, President, Art Center College of Design

A Candidate Says Opponents are Exaggerating His Involvement in His Son's Sex Doll Manufacturing Company:
71-year-old Darrell McMullen of San Marcos, California is running for his fourth term on the board of Palomar College. He's one of six candidates for three seats. And his opponents are running a pretty innovative smear campaign.
Turns out Darrell's son Matt owns a company called Abyss Creations . . . that makes LIFE-SIZED ANATOMICALLY-CORRECT SEX DOLLS. And Darrell's opponents are painting him as a partner in the company, and an all-around deviant.
Darrell says that's not true. He says he helped his son with the paperwork to start the company back in 1998, but doesn't have a role in the company.
He also made a SPECIAL effort to point out that he's never used one of the dolls.
By the way . . . Abyss doesn't just make sex dolls. They ALSO make lifelike prosthetic breasts for cancer victims.
One in Three People Are Worth More Dead Than Alive?
According to a survey by a British insurance website called Confused.com, one in three people are worth more DEAD than ALIVE.
That's because their life insurance would pay their family more in benefits than they have saved up.
That sounds depressing, but the alternative isn't any better. 59% of people are NOT worth more dead . . . because they don't have any life insurance.
40% of people think that their dependents will have trouble paying the bills if they were to die . . . and 11% think their family would end up LOSING their HOME without them around.
Nearly two in three people . . . 64% . . . would leave behind a mortgage that isn't paid off yet.
A Woman Gets Home From Winning a Karate Tournament, Finds an Intruder in Her House . . . And More Karate Ensues:
18-year-old Wilberto Zapata of Fresno, California picked the WRONG APARTMENT to break into.
On Sunday, Wilberto was apparently SO DRUNK that when he got home to his apartment complex, he was confused about which apartment was his. He went to the apartment he THOUGHT was his . . . and the door was locked.
He broke in, STILL didn't realize it was the wrong apartment, and went to the bathroom to get ready for bed.
Unfortunately for him, the apartment belonged to 20-year-old Jannine Ramirez. She wasn't home at the time because she was out WINNING A KARATE TOURNAMENT.
When she DID get home, she heard noises in her bathroom, busted in . . . and started using those karate skills on Wilberto. She ended up chopping and kicking him until he was outside.
He was arrested for unlawful entry. He didn't go to the hospital . . . but did tell the cops he was surprised how hard she'd kicked him.
Police in Florida Have Busted Nine Men For Fixing Games and Betting On Football . . . Pee-Wee Football:
This week, police in Broward County, Florida arrested nine men for betting on and even FIXING pee-wee football games. Seven of the nine men are COACHES of youth football teams in Fort Lauderdale and Deerfield Beach, Florida.
Apparently the men set lines on the youth football games, took bets at a sporting goods store in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida and at a barbershop in Lauderhill, Florida . . . and sometimes even fixed the games to maximize their profits.
All of the games were in a Pop Warner league, which takes kids from ages five to 14. It's not clear how old the kids were in the games that people were betting on.
The coaches range in age from 25 to 42. All of them have been charged with felony bookmaking and some were charged with keeping a gambling house. They also took bets on college and pro football games.

The 'v' side is on the outside, but the work is coming towards me, not away (or under) like I expect it would - photo attached
Also, how do you keep the beginning and end stitches tight enough?
Do you knit left-handed?
Here's how I usually describe circular knitting to my students:
Imagine that the circle of knitting is the top of a cup. You should be working at the spot where you would be sipping from. This way, the right side of the project will be on the outside, flowing down from your needles.
If you try to knit on the opposite side of the "cup", your project will be worked inside out.
To keep the stitches even, just pull the stitches a little tighter when changing to the next needle.
I hope this helps.

A-Rod needs hip surgery, will miss season's start
In this Wednesday, Oct. 17, 2012 photo, New York Yankees' Alex Rodriguez takes batting practice before Game 4 of the American League championship series against the Detroit Tigers, in Detroit. The New York Yankees said Monday, Dec. 3, 2012, Rodriguez will have surgery on his left hip and will miss the start of the season and possibly the entire first half. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio) |
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Alex Rodriguez will have surgery on his left hip and will miss the start of the season and possibly the entire first half.
Rodriguez has a torn labrum, bone impingement and a cyst, the Yankees said Monday. The third baseman will need to follow a pre-surgery program over the next four-to-six weeks, and the team anticipates he will be sidelined four-to-six months after the operation. That timetable projects to a return between the start of May and mid-July.
A-Rod had right hip surgery on March 9, 2009, and returned that May 8. The Yankees said this operation will be "similar but not identical."
