Valley oak is a school I would not recommend if your child isn't a sports fan. They have an mpr full of atchletic banners but only 3 academic posters in the back the 6th grade teacher mrs. Gregory is one who will give TLC to you if you don't push her buttons
I have three children currently at VO and one going into high school. Both my high performing children and my child with learning disabilities are challenged and supported. In fact, watching my older child and his VO peers continue their growth in middle and high school is so rewarding! To name just a few accomplishments, this year, VO has 2 destination imagination teams going to globals (for the 2nd year in a row), one student is moving on to state for spelling, and another for science fair. These kinds of results are consistent every year. My older child's class has a former VO student moving on to state for History competition and another former VO student going to state for a Science project. The teachers work so hard and truly care about the whole student. At any school there's a chance that a teacher and child is not a good fit. Every teacher that I have dealt with at VO are completely committed to their students and the overall school. Plus they recently installed an Outdoor Learning Ctr (organic garden) for more hands-on learning!
This is an excellent school. One of the top 5 in CUSD. My son and daughter both attend Valley Oak. They have had 3 teachers who have won awards for teacher of the year and one for science teacher for the county. The parents are warm and inviting and the students are happy and cheerful. My daughter is involved in peer mediation, choir and sports and my son is in band, sports and lego robotics. What a great experience
We are new to the school and are less than excited about it. Teachers might or might not respond to our attempts at communication, and this has been our greatest frustration. Being new to the school, several things have been less than explicit, and our attempts at clarification have often run into frustrating dead ends... sometimes leading to negative repercussions for our child. I frequently hear how phenomenal the Clovis Unified schools are, and I have no doubt that they are superior to most public schools in California (and probably most private schools in Fresno,) but this school poorly compares to our previous out-of-state elementary school.
I am amazed by the parent with the negative experience, my son is currently enrolled in Ms. Vincent's 4th grade class and I have nothing but positive things to say about his 4th grade year so far. As parents we have never made a donation other than time and I am confident our son receives the same good education as the next kid. Now could you ticket some of these teachers for being too pretty? ya probably.
I would have to highly disagree with the previous review submitted by "other". I have been involved with valley oak for the last 7 years with my two kids and I have nothing but good things to say. Valley oak has a great staff Mrs. Gregory, Mrs. Vincent and Mrs. Hustede have always been professional and personable in our engagements. Mrs. Watson has handled any issues I have with my kids fairly and quickly. Don't let a skewed view form "OTHER" deter you from this Great school with a great staff.
Unfortunately we are leaving Valley Oak on a bad note due to the teachers and Ms. Watson. Mrs. Duwe is a valuable asset to the school but she will be leaving on a part-time basis at the end of the school year 2010-2011. If you have a student there be mindful of the following teachers: Mrs. Gregory who teaches 6th, Kristi Vincent who teaches 4th and Mrs. Hustede's who teach 5th. All 3 teachers are upper level and have countless complaints towards them as teachers. The new principal does not support the parents or students and shows favoritism strictly towards the parents that donate and are involved in the Parent committees. It is unfortunate that Valley Oak has gone down hill since the arrival of Mrs. Watson. Very Ghetto for Woodward Park area.
It was a great school until the new principal this year. Ms. Watson knows nothing of running an elementary school, as she came from the district office. It has become more about the rule book then the children and how to help then excel. My son and daughter currently attend Valley Oak as have my other 3 children. I am currently looking to remove them from this school and move them to a school that has a more healthy learning environment.
VO is a great school: great leadership is provided by Ms. O'Farrell and Ms. Dewey (who happen to know each and every student by name!), and outstanding facilities maintenance by Mr. Calderon. Most of the teachers are very dedicated to their professions, are hard-working, and happen to be parents themselves. My suggestions for improvement at VO are more inclusiveness towards parents and parental involvement, better teacher-parent communication (with better use of classroom websites for this) and more teacher diversity. Realistically, instead of a ranking of '10', Id give them an A- but overall its a good school for my kids!
Truly an exceptional school. As the parents of 4 children in the school, I feel I can speak with some authority on this. Outstanding staff which starts at the top - Eimear O'Farrell is the most involved, most dedicatged principal I have seen - and this sets the tone for a host of exceptional teachers. I truly cannot say enough positive about Valley Oak.
We moved to Valley Oak school from on in Southern CA. I researched the school before enrolling my children and met briefly with its staff. I have not been disapointed. My daughters love their school and the extra activites provided to upper grade is amazing. The staff are both professional and caring. The dedication I observe from Mrs. O'Farrell and Mrs. Dewey is truly inspiring. Special Kudos to Miss Domoto who is encouraging, positive and effective. She has been the perfect teacher for my 2nd grader.
My daughter loves V.O. She is learning so much and is challenged. She has great friends and comes home very happy and excited about her school day. Her teacher seems kind and patient with the students. There are quite a few parents in her class that are very involved with helping which is always beneficial for the students and teacher.
We were part of the Valley OakSchool for a very short time, unfortunately. We were relocated to Fresno from Minnesota then back again. The students, teachers and soccer coach all went out of their way to make our daughter feel like she belonged and was important. The work was challenging and she developed a love for learning. Any of you with a child in Mrs.Firpo's 3rd grade, thank you so much for teaching your children to be kind to the new kid. Mrs. Firpo is the most incredable teacher and we are so blessed to have been assigned to her. She pushed our daughter and encouraged her to be curious. She instilled in her mind she was bright and capable. The parents at Valley Oak immediately embraced our family. We miss it everyday. If your at Valley Oak you are very lucky. Your kids are getting an outstanding education.
Valley oak is a great school. My daughter loves it, she is well educated and well loved by the teachers. I could not wish for a more better school! I look forward to my other children attending valley oak. Go wildcats!
Great school. Helps students greatly with excellent teachers. Put empahasis on testing.
I do feel that the parent club has been hightly political in the past. The teachers have been great in my experience, other than maybe one or two at most (I have 2 kids). I think that the bright students are challenged, but there is not much consideration for the students that struggle. If the district would use all types of teaching methods to instuct all types of students, this school would be significantly more successful.
My son has done very well in school so far. His scores on standardized tests and school grades match reflecting the assessment standard at the school. My only suggestion is that teachers have to encourage students who process information differently than 'normal' students. Recognize their strengths and help them achieve higher standards. One area I would certainly encourage teachers to consider is, please give 'clear' instructions, repeat it, rephrase it, and find out whether all students got it. That way you don't leave anyone behind. On the whole, Valley Oak provides a good environment for learning. But,there is still room for improvement.
My son has had good academic preparation at Valley Oak; however, the principal is distant and seems less than sincere when present. The GIS has just changed. The parent club only meets during daytime hours essentially leaving all working parents out.

Criticism Of Rabb Is Misinformed
January 30, 2014
To The Reader's Forum: I was quite surprised and saddened to read an article criticizing the Jamestown City Council President, Dr. Greg Rabb, in a letter to The Post-Journal's editor....
lol, right.

I hope Rev Mel, Pastors Short & Ericson and Dr. Blair like what has grown from the seeds they have sown. Willie is their harvest and he blames it all on his "christian" beliefs. Nice job, Revs!

Straight people getting HIV/AIDS is like nonsmokers inhaling second hand tobacco smoke? So, just standing next to some gay people is gonna give you HIV/AIDS? Or something??
You're quickly sliding into the ludicrous.
Your "jokes" about proctologists aren't funny either.

"and, one more thing, straight people get AIDS too."
Yes, just like people get cancer from second hand smoke. It's unfortunate that the gay community's diseases can spill over into the whole community. It's sad.

I knew it wouldn't be long before personal attacks from willymoejoe would start in.
I wonder which church willymoejoe goes to. If they really support vilifying people the way he has in this discussion, then I'll want to warn people to avoid it.
2 Agrees | 0 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
willymoejoe keeps trying to turn this issue into a religious debate. We are talking about CIVIL marriage and CIVIL rights. Your religion gets no say in the matter. You can quote Bible verses into infinity, until they change the 1st amendment to make our government a theocracy, you'd be wasting your breath.
When you use vile and dishonest language, as you already have in this discussion, your prejudice and animosity are plainly illustrated. That you would use hateful rhetoric like that belies your claim of being truly Christian and supports the apparent fact that you use religious rhetoric just to give your hate a veneer of justifiability.
and, one more thing, straight people get AIDS too. I would think, if God wanted to target LGBT people, he's have better aim than that.

The Jamestown community has reached a new historic low when the City Council President defends sick, perverted, gross, immoral, degrading behavior like two dudes climbing into bed together and playing with each other's private parts! Remember Sodom and Gomorrah? God burned it down didn't he? Why? Because of homosexual activity. It's called fiery judgment. Read, it's in the Bible. AIDS is God's curse on the LGBTQ community, for its blatant disobedience to the moral law of God. How many more will die? As many as it takes until people realize that God hates gay sex, period. Call that hate or anti-gay or whatever, it makes no difference, AIDS kills just the same and will continue to kill until the gay behavior is stopped. AIDS is catalyzed and fueled by gay sex primarily, although fornicators, adulterers and other sinners better beware also. Listen to God, stop mumbling among yourselves, ye sinners! Stop defending buggery!

It's interesting that Willie blames God for making him hate and professes to worry about others' souls. I would suggest he needs to worry a bit more about his own soul first and stop fixating on "dudes bumpin' ugly" so much.

willymoejoe goes out of his way to use disgusting words and dishonestly inflammatory rhetoric to defame gay men (& never mentions lesbians for some reason) and wants us to believe that he's doing this as an expression of religion. He uses egregious language gleaned from anti-gay hate groups like the AFA and FRC and asks us to swallow his lies about gay men because he is just agreeing with God.
I wonder where those Christians are who tell us that they don't agree with things that willymoejoe and the other anti-gay haters say? Where's Rev. Mel's condemnation of this hate? Where are the other pastors like Dr Blair, who claim Christian love but don't speak up to the filth that's coming from willymoejoe's mind? Do they agree with his statements? Do they think it's a good thing to write things like that?
All the things willymoejoe writes about could be said of heterosexual couples with the same level of accuracy. Hate is ugly and willymoejoe has shown us a bit of how ugly it can

". . . maybe I've simply read the Bible and hate what God hates . . ."
I'm impressed that you think you have such a direct connection to the Deity. Just like the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, it seems. Next we'll be hearing from you that you love gay men but hate the sin?
Let me suggest that you read 1 Corinthians 13, and Matthew 7 before telling us how your version of the Bible justifies your self admitted hate. Then tell us, please, how promoting civil marriage "promotes" sodomy? Do you really think if Jamestown suppresses marriage ceremonies that people will have less sex?
Not only are your rants full of hate and animosity, they make no sense when they are considered logically. Indeed, they lend credence to the idea that your opinion is completely irrational.

"Indeed, willymoejoe's seeming obsession about what gay men do in bed does make me wonder where the motivation behind his extreme animosity lies."
1. maybe I'm a closet homosexual in denial. 2. maybe I had a painful homosexual experience as a prepubescent boy. 3. maybe I've simply read the Bible and hate what God hates, like homosexual activity.
Take a guess.

Emelye, Greg Rabb knows that homosexuality is highly offensive to god-dearing and moral citizens of Jamestown, and he knows that so-called gay marriage was a highly controversial and deeply divisive political issue. So in setting as his goal making Jamestown a gay marriage headquarters, he's getting up in the face of a lot of citizens! He's being extremely insensitive and frankly belligerent. He's looking for trouble, and he's got it. He's pushing an in-your-face agenda and thinks he can get away with it. Well, that's not going to happen. He thinks it's ok for two dudes to be bumpin ugly and he wants society to bless that filthy rotten behavior with a marriage certificate? How low does this kind of stuff go?
2 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Emelye, I wouldn't be surprised if someone didn't flag your comments and the post-journal pull your comment because of your overt and direct reference to two specific types of sex. But I wouldn't, because I believe in freedom of speech, unlike Monkeyboy, who seems to want to censor anyone he disagrees with. Monkeyboy, do think Emelye's post should be pulled? I didn't hear any protest of it. Anyway, I object to two dudes having sex, not a man and woman having sex. Dah! I object to a man caring on with a man as if it were a woman, like Council person Rabb advocates. I find that gross, immoral, perverse. According to the Christian God, such people will face the fiery judgment of hell, unless they repent. If you don't believe that, take your chances. But don't say I didn't warn you as the fire starts getting hot.

By making civil equality in marriage laws all about sex, willymoejoe tried to defame LGBT people with inflammatory rhetoric and prejudicial assumptions. We could just as easily proclaim heterosexual marriage and sex as deviant since heterosexual couples just as often engage in oral and an al sex as LGB people do. willymoejoe's extreme bias is also glaringly illuminated by his obsession with physical acts while we're talking about civil rights and promoting economic activity in out fair city.
Indeed, willymoejoe's seeming obsession about what gay men do in bed does make me wonder where the motivation behind his extreme animosity lies.

You are deep into hate speech now Willie and I really hope your last post gets pulled. Some hate speech is protected by the first amendment but this forum is controlled by the Post-Journal and they can pull any comments that are deemed grossly offensive, as yours are.

willymoejoe says, "You'll have to do better, like coming up with stronger arguments for your position." So when you said, "Gay sex is maggot infested," did you follow your own advice?
6 Agrees | 3 Disagrees | Report Abuse »
Gravelpit, intimidation doesn't work, calling something "hate" to silence free speech doesn't cut it anymore. You'll have to do better, like coming up with stronger arguments for your position. Until then, give up your feeble attempt at silencing opponents by throwing around words like "hate" or "anti" etc. That's childish anyway. If you don't like someone's argument, make a stronger one, But stop trying to silence free speech. I oppose dudes butt thumping. If you think that's "hate" so be it. I could label you an anti-Christian or anti-religious bigot. But let's not go there, ok.

Monkeyboy, sodomy is derived from the word "Sodom" which is a reference to the evil, wicked city in ancient times known for its homosexuality, and which was destroyed in judgment by God. Sodomy is homosexual sex, sodomite is anyone engagement in homosexual sex. The word also has a few other nuances, but that's essentially its definition. So I'd say it's relevant to the Greg Rabb discussion. Greg is a sodomite who wants to turn Jamestown into a Sodom. I oppose that, or you might say, anti-that, or against it happening.

Ya know, Willie, you really didn't HAVE to mention anything about sodomy since it wasn't relevant here.

Another Great Kayano!
By A Kayano Addict
from Grand Junction, CO
Best Uses
I've been wearing the Kayano since the 14 came out. When I heard they were releasing the 21, I had to get them! While I was not impressed with the Kayano 20 (a bit too snug for my foot), the 21 is great! The fit is a lot better, and works with my custom orthodics. I normally wear a size 8 in running shoes, and for me, these seem to fit true to size. They are great for short and long runs; I don't feel fatigue in my feet and knees. Although they are a bit pricy, they are totally worth it! I just bought the Kayano 21 Lite Show, too!!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

7 Stocks Rising on Unusual Volume
CLNE Volume data by
Clean Energy (CLNE)
This company is engaged in the business of selling natural gas fueling solutions to its customers mainly in the United States and Canada. This stock is trading up 4.8% at $12.86 in recent trading.
Today's Volume: 2.81 millionAverage Volume: 1.10 million Volume % Change: 340% From a technical perspective, CLNE is showing some follow through strength Wednesday with volume after the stock ripped higher on Tuesday with heavy upside volume. This move has now pushed CLNE briefly above its 50-day moving average of $12.97. At last check, CLNE has hit an intraday high of $13.20 and volume is well above its three-month average action of 1.10 million shares. Traders should now look for long-biased trades in CLNE as long as it's trending near or above its 50-day at $12.96 with above average volume flows. I would consider any upside volume day that registers near or above 1.10 million shares as bullish. If CLNE can maintain that trend, then look for this stock to challenge its next major overhead resistance levels at $14.20 to $14.35. Any high-volume move above those levels will then put more resistance at $14.69 and its 200-day at $15.51 into focus for CLNE.

The sound of freedom rang out at Stone Mountain Park Wednesday at 3 p.m. sharp.
Local and state lawmakers, area residents and children rang bells in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington D.C. and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's "I Have a Dream" speech.
It was a special occasion remembering the man who fought for equality and freedom for all.
"We are different, but the same. Unity is what all these religious leaders were saying today. We may be different, but there is a spirit of unity that is the purpose of today. A cry for unity," said Faye Vinson, who attended the ceremony.
"It is just amazing what Martin Luther King, Jr. represented, and what we've overcome. I just thought it was really important to be here today, and be apart of history," said Kathryn Snow, who attended the ceremony.

After she flew the Atlantic solo in 1932, landing in a farmer's field in Londonderry, Northern Ireland, Amelia Earhart became the most famous woman in the world.
TIGHAR is planning a search of the coral reef face at Nikumaroro Atoll in the central Pacific, where its researchers think Earhart's airplane wound up after it went missing on July 2, 1937.
Where is the missing plane? Each day dawns bright, and with it, a new theory. Some are ominous. The transponders disabled, the crew complicit. The flight path reprogrammed via an on board computer. Houses are searched, conspiracies forwarded.
You mean 1920s-era women were not all church-going sweet belles with bonnets and daisies?
With each new theory or book or expedition, her name remains in the public arena. But is that the only reason Earhart is remembered? Why do people continue to search and more importantly, to care?
Amelia Earhart and her navigator, Fred Noonan, disappeared over the Pacific in 1937. What happened to them? There are three main hypotheses -- that is, educated guesses that can be tested through research and exploration.
The word bothered me greatly years ago, as aviatrix, a feminization of aviator, seemed to make their accomplishments parenthetical. But I think of it differently these days as I understand the women of that era were different than the men -- they had to be "more."
Earhart didn't become a household name overnight. She made many decisions and that is where the road she chose ended up. Make a decision today that is worth the risk.
At a time when women and minorities were rarely seen in the cockpit of an airplane, Amelia Earhart's pioneering achievements broke the silence barrier, inspired a nation and paved the way for so many others who have followed in her path.
My own story with aviation could be described as a teenage romance that grew into a lifelong love affair.
Women today are able to stand on Amelia Earhart's shoulders and reach for their own stars, becoming astronauts and commercial airline pilots.
As a psychoanalyst, I'm always struck by the fact that truth is much more fascinating than fiction. The real story of Dorothy and George Putnam and Amelia Earhart is a poignant, heartbreaking, and absorbing tale about real people living amazing lives.
Now, finally, we can read firsthand accounts of the U.S. Navy and Coast Guard sailors who were there to immediately launch a hunt for the plane when it became very clear that something had gone wrong.
I pray my twelve-year-old nephew Joel who, among his four siblings, is known as "the science guy," will be inspired by Sally Ride's life and example. She's a role model for boys, too.
As I tell my daughter, when you want something in life -- no matter how impossible it seems -- you need to fight for it. It's the lesson that links the lives of every single hero I picked for her.

Will Apple raise its dividend next week?
An analyst thinks the company could return an additional $20 billion or more to shareholders as it seeks to bolster its flagging stock price.
Speculation as to what Apple (AAPL) will do with its $137 billion cash hoard mounts ahead of the release of the Cupertino, Calif., company's first-quarter financial results, on April 23. One analyst thinks Apple could allocate as much as an additional $20 billion for shareholder dividends and stock buybacks.
UBS analyst Steven Milunovich believes Apple could boost its cash return to shareholders to $65 billion over the next three years, up from the $45 billion already budgeted for dividends and buybacks.
Raising its dividend and accelerating share buybacks would alleviate some of the pressure Apple is facing from shareholders such as David Einhorn, and would have the added benefit of whetting investor appetite for the stock.
"The market appears to be underestimating the potential dividend increase, and a significant return of cash could boost the stock price by 10%," Milunovich wrote in a note to investors. The analyst rates the stock a "buy" and has a $560 price target.
Apple CEO Tim Cook has let it be known that the technology giant is in "very, very active" discussions about the cash on its balance sheet. In March 2012, Apple announced a combination of dividends and buybacks worth $45 billion, to be paid out over three years.
Profits harder to come by
Apple faces slower earnings growth as the smartphone market matures and competition from Samsung, Google (GOOG) and others intensifies. Last quarter, the iPhone accounted for $30.7 billion in revenue, or 56% of Apple's $54.5 billion in sales, as the company sold 47.8 million of the smartphones.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters are looking for Apple's second-quarter earnings to be down sharply from a year ago, when Apple earned $12.30 per share on $39.19 billion in sales.
Some on Wall Street are speculating that an announcement of shareholder-friendly measures could accompany the April 23 earnings report as a way to cushion any damage to the stock should the company miss profit expectations.
Any increase in buybacks could help offset the slowing year-over-year earnings growth Apple is expected to see, as the company waits for new products, such as the oft-rumored iPhone 5S, to help spur earnings. "An additional $10 billion in share repurchases or $20 billion total over three years would be 5% accretive to our estimates, and a $2 billion to $5 billion dividend increase would lift the stock's yield from 2.5% to 3%," Milunovich wrote in his note.

Economic Trends
Are Underemployed Graduates Displacing Nongraduates?
The current recovery's failure to produce robust job growth has focused attention on workers who are temporarily getting by in positions that are not good matches. One mismatch is formally measured in the count of part-time workers who want full-time work. Another frequently discussed, but less measured mismatch is those who hold a college degree but must take a job that does not require their degree because they cannot find employment in their field. For example, we hear anecdotes of recent college graduates serving coffee and stocking shelves.
We looked at data that could reflect this trend and found that college graduates are in fact becoming more prevalent in occupations that do not require a degree. The trend actually started before the recession, though it has, if anything, increased during the slowdown. Also, a few very-low-skilled occupations have seen a jump in college graduates during and after the recession. While other ongoing structural changes in the economy could be driving all of these trends in the data, they are consistent with the stories of educated people rolling down into mismatched positions.
Mismatches are not the only reason that we might see more educated people in some occupations. Employers cutting payrolls during the recession, for example, might intentionally retain their graduates while letting nongraduates go. Or a new technology may require that people have a degree to provide a product or service for which a degree was unnecessary 10 years ago. Within the categories we will examine, the lowest-skill occupations may be declining while the higher-skilled occupations are growing. These shifts in the labor market, combined with the time it takes the workforce to increase education levels, could explain some of the wide spread in unemployment rates that are observed between the college degreed and nondegreed. In 2010, workers without a college degree experienced 10.4 percent unemployment, while those with a bachelor's degree or greater were unemployed at 4.7 percent.
To begin our analysis, we sorted all the occupations tracked in the Current Population Survey into two groups, those where the majority of workers hold less than a bachelor's degree (BA) and those where the majority are college graduates. High school drop outs and associate's degree holders are in the first category, and graduate degree holders are in the second. For the sake of simplicity, we'll refer to the groups as non-BA occupations and BA occupations. We observe 388 non-BA occupations (for example, secretaries, retail sales workers, and drivers) and 115 BA occupations (such as teachers, nurses, and accountants). Most non-BA occupations have some degree holders working in them. In 198 of these occupations, 10 percent or more of the workers hold a college degree. Many BA occupations also have substantial shares of non-BA holders working in them.
We do have to recognize that some of what appears to be substitution or competition between workers with different education levels could be imprecision in the definitions of the occupations. Occupations such as "medical services manager" have similar percentages of workers with and without college degrees. Perhaps workers with degrees are performing significantly different, higher-skilled tasks, which fit best under the title "medical services manager," along with simpler management tasks.
The chart below shows the increasing education levels of the American workforce over time. Between 2003 and 2007, when total employment was growing, an increasing share of non-BA occupations were being held by people with BAs. Meanwhile, the share of people without BAs who were working in mainly BA occupations was falling. A roll-down impact of the recession would accelerate these existing trends.
The decline in the percentage of people without a college degree in BA occupations was more rapid before the recession than during and after it. The share of BAs working in non-BA occupations, on the other hand, rose somewhat faster during and after the recession. The 2004-2007 changes suggest that the trends of increasing skill demands within occupations, restructuring toward higher-skilled industries, and employers screening by educational attainment were impacting both types of occupations while economic growth was strong. In the changes from 2007 to 2010, the transitions stall out in the BA occupations but continue in the non-BA occupations. The roll-down phenomenon, which should only occur in a weak economy, could be maintaining the latter trend.
Levels and Changes in the Percent of Workers in Occupations That Mainly Employ People with a Different Level of Education
2004–2007 change
2007–2010 change
|Less-than-bachelor's degree holders in college-degree-majority occupations
Degree holders in less-than-bachelor's degree occupations
Source: Authors' calculations from the CPS data.
To focus our search for the recent college-grad barista, we selected 34 occupations that seemed likely to collect underemployed degree holders. These occupations, mostly in sales and food service, do not require associate's degrees or extensive on-the-job training. In 2004, 14.7 percent of the employees in these fields held BAs. In 2007, the percentage had climbed to 15.3, and by 2010, it was 17.0 percent. This corresponds to an increase of 0.6 percentage points in the three years before the recession and 1.7 percentage points during and after the recession. The 1.1 percent point change in the trend corresponds to about 356,000 people, 2.6 percent of the unemployed, or two-tenths of the labor force. That is a notable number of college graduates working in occupations that are not on college-degree career paths.
Considering this analysis, a mismatch of college graduates in non-BA occupations cannot be dismissed. We do not observe the ratio of college graduates to nongraduates in either type of occupation to be holding steady or trending toward nongraduates. If we observed trends favoring nongraduates, that would suggest the rolling-down of graduates is not happening, or is too small to matter.
The increasing share of degree holders in non-BA positions both before and after the recession could be driven by trends other than mismatch. However, the substantial increase in degree holders in low-skilled, easily-entered occupations begs further investigation and monitoring. A large increase in underemployed degree holders and an equal number of displaced nongraduates would be a phenomenon worthy of a policy response.

text: The De Pere Redbirds made it back to the WIAA Girls State Volleyball Tournament at the Resch Center for the second straight year but on Thursday night, they had the unenviable task of drawing defending Division 1 champion and number one ranked Burlington in the Quarterfinals. The Demons were just too powerful for the Classic Conference co-champs in sweeping their way to the semifinals 25-18, 25-8 and 25-17. De Pere flashed a lot of energy and helped by service errors from the favorites, held a 15-13 lead in the opening game. Burlington repeatedly turned to their 6-3 senior, Ciara Capezio, a University of Minnesota recruit, who drove home a game high 27 kills. The Redbirds looked rattled in the second set and fought gamely in the third but didn't have enough. Alexis Bergman led De Pere with six kills while Corryn Ginnow closed out her career with 16 assists and 8 digs. De Pere finshed 28-14. Burlington will meet Menomonee Falls in the semifinals. The Indians swept past Sun Prairie in three straight games. In the afternoon session, Neenah took the opening set but Milwaukee Divine Savior Holy Angels came back with the next three to advance against Merrill. The Blue Jays, making their first trip to state in 30 years, improved to 42-3 by beating perennial power Muskego 3 games to 1. Semifinals in all four divisions take place Friday with championship matches Saturday at the Resch Center.

Publication: The Day
Groton - Following an executive session Monday night, the Board of Education did not make any decisions on the fate of either Superintendent of Schools Paul Kadri or interim Superintendent Randy Collins, who has held the post since May, when Kadri was placed on paid administrative leave.
The first item scheduled for executive session was a status update on the investigation into Kadri, who has been away from the district since early May, when the board voted unanimously to put him on paid leave pending an inquiry into his "interactions with and treatment of district employees."
Also scheduled for executive session was a discussion of the contract with Collins, which runs through the end of the month.
Chairwoman Kirsten Hoyt said after the meeting that the next discussion on the issues could come at the Aug. 27 meeting of the Committee of the Whole. She could not say whether a decision would be made before the start of the school year, which begins Aug. 29.
Little has been said publicly about the investigation into Kadri, who has served as the town's superintendent since 2008.
Before the executive session, board member Chaz Zezulka offered strong criticism against an unidentified board member who he said last month leaked to The Day a confidential email related to the superintendent issue.
He said if he had "hardcore proof" of who that member was, he would propose to censure or reprimand that member for "causing great harm" to the board and its mission.
The confidential email was discussed during executive session on July 16, he said, and items discussed in such a session are confidential to the point "you do not even reveal to your spouse what goes on in executive session."
"I consider it a serious breach of public trust," he said. Because of the leak, Zezulka said, "I will not vote to go into executive session and never will vote to go in because one person has destroyed that trust."
Board member Robert Peruzzotti also spoke about the leak, saying it is "common sense" not to reveal confidential information and that "whoever did it should just resign."
The email in question was written by school board attorney Floyd Dugas and sent to board members. Dugas expressed concern that Kadri might retaliate against the school board and witnesses if the board tries to fire him.

Happy day of publick Thanksgiving, everybody.
(Source: kateoplis)
P.V. left this in our inbox this afternoon:
Last year I shared President Obama's Thanksgiving Proclamation with the advanced English class I was teaching in Spain, where I was studying for graduate school. It was my way of celebrating Thanksgiving abroad and as everyone read aloud, I felt proud of my country and everything the United States has done for the world. Also, they thought it was pretty awesome Obama was my president. Now I'm home and last night I heard this year's proclamation read as part of the interfaith service between my church and a local synagogue. A year has gone by and there is a year to go, but I'm confident that next year we will all feel thankful for the four years to come.
Hear, hear. You can read the proclamations she's talking about on the White House website.

Fire and rescue crews helped rescue a Minot city worker who fell nearly seven feet while working inside a manhole Friday morning.
Minot Fire Battalion Chief John Krill says a sewer maintenance worker went in to the manhole at the intersection of 1st St. SW and 14th Ave. SW to retrieve a tool.
On his way back up, a metal step broke out from under him, causing his fall.
The man was transported to Trinity Hospital for his injuries.
No word yet on his condition.

Food Blog Roundup: 07.10.2007
We've been exploring new (to us anyway) food blogs this week, and there's a lot to appreciate and salivate over.
The photos and ideas at Cloudberry Quark are truly inspiring. This Noodle Salad with Spicy Peanut Dressing looks refreshing, and we have to try this Lemon Chili Ice Cream!
Bittersweet also has great photos, and a unique twist: the blog entries alternate between recipes and craft instructions. Check out this Strawberry Clafoutis and the knit kiwi birds.
Bake or Break is devoted to baking, with a well-designed, well-written blog full of helpful resources and recipes. We're liking this Chocolate Wafer Icebox Cake and the recipe for Banana Nut Muffins.
Eating Onions Together is one of those short-lived blogs that we wish would resurrect itself. The author had a thing for Paula Deen and a way with the camera. See this entry on hearing Deen live and review of Deen's Butter Pecan Ice Cream.

For yet another fabulous food blog check out Urban Girl's Almanac at www.UrbanAlmanac.blogspot.com.
Urban Girl's Almanac is just what busy-urban-girls-like-you need to know for living fabulously - anywhere! Here you'll learn about foods, flowers, home décor and style trends. You'll learn about celebrating holidays and cultural traditions. You'll discover much, much, more.
I made the noodle salad with spicy peanut dressing, with a few alterations. The bf doesn't like onions so I omitted the scallions, and added some zucchini, broccoli and chicken to make it a little more hardy. It was awesome, and will definitely go into regular rotation at our house!

After mastering a musical instrument, what comes next?
It takes time to learn playing a musical instrument. In the process you will always have something to play from someone.
But the problem is after like 15 or 20 years, how do you keep playing? The books are finished. Should we improvise or compose? I think we are somehow trapped inside our minds. How do we get out of it to find new ideas to play?

Apr 29 2012: Thats for your Comment,
I agree. Teaching is very joyful. But the problem is after sometime the whole teaching process makes you a trainer, and then you can just improve you teaching skills not playing skills. I tried concerts too, but soon I got cold feet again.
Do we have any other idea to know more about the music? How to pass the borders of learning?

Hutchinson Hall
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hutchinson Hall (also known as Hutchinson Commons) at the University of Chicago is modeled, nearly identically, on the hall of Christ Church, one of Oxford University's constituent colleges. It is located at 5700 S. University Avenue in Chicago, Illinois and is currently used as a dining hall and lounge for students and professors. The Harry Potter film series has used the original hall at Christ Church in each of its films, imparting a tourist interest in its American replicate.[citation needed]

Mike's Chili Parlor (1447 NW Ballard Way, Seattle, WA)
THE Best Chili I've Ever Had. Period.
Aside from tasty food, they say the experience itself is what defines good dining. It's not fine dining, but this place really blew us out of the water during our stay in Seattle. This parlor was on a street corner, that stood out in the industrial neighborhood where it was located.
After we parked, we wanted to take a photo outside to document our dining adventures. A stranger rolled up, got out of his car, and offered to take the photo for us. Once inside, we knew what we wanted to order: Anything chili! This parlor was featured in Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives on The Food Network, and this was why we were there. I love chili, and we wanted to venture away from the beaten path to expand our chili horizons. Boy, did we venture out on the right path! We ordered our beer and then waited in anticipation. The atmosphere in this place was very laid back and casual. It was about 75% full when we got there, and it was around lunchtime.
We were approached by a man wearing a Mike's Chili Parlor jacket, asking if anyone had taken our orders, and he made sure we got our IPA's. He continued to talk to us throughout our visit, and we soon discovered that this was Phil Semandiris - the grandson of the original Mike who opened this place in 1938. It's been passed down since from generation to generation, and now Phil has also passed it down to his son, who is also named Mike. A few moments later, Mike introduces himself to us - it turns out that he was the kind man who offered to take our photo outside! To see the passion these two had for their modest chili joint was so amazing. Mike and Phil are so genuine - they make an effort to talk to everyone who comes in. It made us think of how many places were like this in Vancouver. And sadly, there aren't enough.
We ordered 3 things. A bowl of chili, a small order of chili fries, and the deluxe cheeseburger. Phil passed along a helpful tip - eat the chili before anything else, and while it's still hot. And that's exactly what we did. There's nothing better than gooey cheese, aromatic spices, and onions and jalapeños that will warm up your insides. The jalapeños added just the right amount of heat. Remember the Gastown Blues & Chili Fest in the summer? While we agree that Rogue Kitchen & Wetbar's award winning chili (<— trophy picture) was good, it's nothing compared to the chili at Mike's. This chili is nothing fancy, and it's not trying to be something its not. It's just good, hardcore, old-fashioned comfort chili. The chili fries were amazing, and they were topped with diced onions and jalapeños as well, and layered throughout with gooey cheese. The deluxe cheeseburger was also good, but it wasn't what we came for. I didn't get a picture of it either. I was tempted to order the chili burger but I felt it might've been chili overload.
In the end, the food was delicious, and the hospitality was great. We still would have been satisfied if neither Mike or Phil were there, but they both made our experience that much more special, and it was a real treat to meet them. We'll definitely be back to try their chili dog and chili burger!
