Pictures of Lift the Decade from the Earn it Yourself Spring (Into Action) Tour at Mexicali Live in Teaneck, NJ (5/23/11)! More photos on photobucket here.
Being that they were still in high school (their bassist, James, is only fifteen!), Lift the Decade were probably the youngest bands of the night by age (if I had to guess, I'd say that Lost Blue were a little older than them; A Balance Between and The Vinyls both seemed to be years older and either of these two), though they've been playing together for a few years. It's good that they have so many different influences. Right now, it seems like they're four friends in a band who like playing music together, and that's awesome! It'll be interesting to hear their next EP and hopefully hear them fine-tune their sound. I think they have a lot of potential and I think they could be big, if they keep working at it!
They were a fun band to watch live; I definitely got some GREAT shots of them. I don't have super-professional equipment (I use a Nikon D60- it's a DSLR, which is definitely better than any point and shoot, but no, it doesn't compare to a $5000 camera) but I think a big part of getting good pictures of a concert is capturing the moment at the right time- being able to know when to take the pictures and where to stand (or kneel) to get the best pictures and the best images of the band performing. You can have the best equipment and the best skills (i.e. everything is in focus, no red eyes, perfect exposure, etc.) but what really MAKES the picture is the subject or person in it and what they're doing! Some of that, honestly, is luck, although that's just my two cents.
Check out my interview with the band here!
If you would like a high-res, watermark-free version of any of the photos for promotional purposes or if you would like prints of any of the photos, please email me (firstname.lastname@example.com).

I pinched myself and realized it was only a daydream. There I was, standing outside the front door of Mellby Hall in front of a forbidding sign that informed me that ST. OLAF COLLEGE BANS GUNS ON THESE PREMISES. As I read those words, I couldnt shake the feeling that I had left 21st-century Minnesota and was now in the Wild West, where a man was only as safe as his draw was quick.
And yet, as a result of Minnesotas newly-relaxed firearms legislation, signs banning guns are popping up everywhere, from the Mall of America to our own residence halls. Suddenly I am constantly worrying about guns.
The new statutes allow businesses, churches and colleges to post signs banning guns on their properties. In fact, they prescribe the procedure for such a ban in amazing detail, like the font of the signs text must be Arial. No kidding. But wait, it gets worse.
Many of us may not realize that, despite what the signs say, St. Olaf has not legally banned guns yet. This highlights the most ridiculous aspect of the whole affair: Article 2, Subdivision 17 of Minnesotas new gun law says that a posted ban is not binding until the requester or its agent personally informs the gun-carrying person of the posted request and demands compliance.
In other words, its perfectly okay to have a gun in your hall until a college official comes and reminds you that its not allowed, just in case you missed the huge signs. Only then has your weapon been officially banned, and at that point, if you refuse to leave your gun in the parking lot (from which St. Olaf cannot ban it), you will face petty misdemeanor charges of around $25.
This is silly. The St. Olaf administration should be allowed to manage their property in the way it judges best. If that means banning guns with signs, it is our states responsibility to allow them to do so without requiring them to jump through all these ridiculous hoops.
Besides, there are very few reasons left for civilians to have handguns at all. Many people say that we need guns to protect ourselves against armed criminals, and there are many bad guys out there with guns. But if the NRA, for instance, would devote even part of its influence to the disarmament of our nations criminals, you can bet it would happen pretty fast. We all agree that the bad guys shouldnt be armed. Why dont we take away their guns, instead of buying our own?
Lets face it: guns are made to shoot things. Handguns, in particular, are designed to shoot people. Anyone who thinks that a free people need to be capable of shooting each other in order to live in peace must have missed some important lessons in kindergarten. In many ways, the recent relaxation of Minnesotas gun laws is a step in the wrong direction.
Amidst these strong and valid arguments, it is easy to lose sight of some important realities. Our state legislature is not its own master in this matter. We are a nation of laws, and our highest law unequivocally protects the right to bear arms. No amount of wishful thinking or judicial squirming will make that constitutional reality go away.
The Second Amendment does not say that Americans may carry a weapon only if government authorities feel like allowing it. It says that the right to bear arms shall not be infringed: plain and simple. Whether we like it or not, those are the rules the legislature has to play by, and they are not negotiable except through calling a constitutional convention. Minnesotas new law, aside from the silly procedures for banning guns, reflects that unfortunate reality much better than the previous, more restrictive regulations.
Its a wonderful thing to live in a nation of laws, but times change, and laws need to change with them. St. Olaf students dont need handguns, and neither do American civilians. But we cant look to the state legislature to do something about that We the People have to tackle that job.
The daydream continues: But Granny, I protest, you know I dont carry a gun!
A course I know that, sonny, she answers from the top of the stairs as she turns back to her pies in the oven. Its them other fellas whos got me worried. Me too. Until we can fix that Constitution of ours, lets hope Granny Olaf wields a nasty rolling pin.

Groundwork is an artistic reflection on history, labor, industry, boundaries and growth. Artists Carrie Iverson and Nathan Sandberg will present new works on the grounds of the Pullman State Historic Site.
The exhibit will take place in two parts: Part 1 will be an iron pour on the factory grounds where members of the community will be invited to participate. Part 2 will be a site-specific art installation within the Clock Tower and Administration Building.
Groundwork, part 2 will be a site-specific art installation within the Clock Tower and Administration Building.
More information is available here
According to the artists
The iron pour will bring to life the community and foundry history of the factory in a dramatic and fiery way- an exciting chance for the public to participate in and learn about the processes that used to happen within the factory. We will then use some of the remnants from the pour to create a site specific installation within the factory, supplemented by other found and existing works. This more reflective installation will offer an outside perspective on the spirit that built Pullman and the events that lead to its present state.

What's impossible about the competitions? Themes are usually world based. If now we can look at remembering to ensure they don't exclude overseas entries. If you mean the prize is only UK, then all you need to do is have a friend or relative who could accept the prize on your behalf and then send it to you. We do try to pick sponsors who can offer world wide prizes but that's not always possible.Last Modified By Pete at 4 Sep 2012 - 9:38 AM
Well, you try being from the US and just trying to keep up with everything on the site xD Everyone in the forums is in the UK and talking about UK related things, contests are mainly for UK entries, and many things int he articles are written for the UK. And everything is in pounds and etc. I'm not planning on leaving the site or anything, so I wouldn't worry about that
Now you know how use Brits feel when looking at the profusion of US sites (photography or otherwise)
I have tried various sites and the nearet US site I have had that I enjoy is Luminous Lanscape (they tend to be rather more technical over there) but I have not found one that is as relaxed and friendly as this one.
I'd agree with mikehit about Luminous Landscape.
It is the best US site that I have found .....but nowhere near as helpful as this one.
If you remember that the World Wide Web was the invention of a British scientist working in Switzerland, that might help explain why Europe is always that wee bit ahead of USA. And, within Europe, Britain has the advantage of speaking a reasonably similar language to America.
Try www.photoblink.com its Worlwide and a great community - Not as many users as here but some great guys. I use bothe sites.

These two types of anesthesia numb your body from the chest down to the legs. The medication is placed directly into the spine area.
Spinal and epidural anesthesia is frequently given for surgeries involving:
Advantages of these types of anesthesia include:
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have spinal and epidural anesthesia, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Some factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
Be sure to discuss these risks with your doctor before the surgery.
Make sure that your doctor is aware of:
You will be connected to various monitors to keep track of your:
You may also have:
An area on your back above the spinal cord will be cleaned. A local anesthetic will be injected into the skin to numb the area. This is to decrease pain from the larger needle that will be put in your back. If you are getting spinal anesthesia, the doctor will give you one injection. The medication will be sent directly into the sac of fluid that surrounds the spinal cord.
If you are getting epidural anesthesia, it may be delivered the same way. But, if you need more than one dose, you will have a tiny, flexible tube in place just outside of the fluid sac. This allows the doctor to give you more medication if you need it. After the surgery, a bandage will be placed over the injection spot.

You will stay in bed until your legs are no longer numb.
Giving spinal or epidural anesthesia usually takes about 15 minutes.
You will feel some pain when the needle is inserted.
Your hospital stay depends on the type of surgery being done.
If you received epidural anesthesia, the tube may be left in place to give you more medication. When you no longer need pain control, the tube will be removed.
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
After you leave the hospital, contact your doctor if any of the following occur:

Could Spencer have joined the A Team?
We do know Mona was pressuring her too & at the end of 3x22, Spencer was saying sorry to the girls who she imagined to be there. She also said "You can't count on me" and this really made us question whether she has joined the A Team x
Oh man…oh man.

Remembering Karim: The Man Who Built A Community Through Kindness
Driving down Mt. Auburn Street in Cambridge, Mass. you'll pass Nick's, a nondescript, two-pump gas station that looks no different from any other station in town. But if you talk to regular customers, they'll say they go out of their way to fill up at Nick's — even if it meant getting just a gallon of gas elsewhere so they could fill up at Nick's.
That fierce devotion is in no small part due to Karim Alagha, who pumped gas at Nick's for more than two decades, until shortly before his death in December 2012.
We spoke to his friends and longtime customers, who told us of the profound effect Karim's "little acts of kindness" had on their lives, and the great lengths they went to to make sure Karim was comfortable during the final days of his own life.
"Get ready for a rough landing, Shirley."
That's what skydiving instructor David Hartsock told his student Shirley Dygert moments before hitting the ground after both their primary and reserve parachutes failed to deploy properly.
In a split-second decision Hartsock performed an act of utter selflessness that saved the life of his student at a great expense to his own.
Note: We had initially intended to feature this story back in April, but because of the marathon bombings, we delayed it. The Boston Marathon spoken of in this piece is the 2012 marathon.
When one-legged runner Chris Mehmel, of East Sandwich, Mass., was training for the 2012 Boston Marathon, an act of kindness occurred that had him overcome with gratitude.
Angelique Tung flew from San Francisco to New York City on September 10th for a business meeting. The next morning, she entered the South Tower of the World Trade Center a little after 8AM. Then the first plane hit. She was told to evacuate, and while making her way down the stairwell to the ground floor the second plane hit. She made it to the ground safely, but come night time had no where she could sleep. Her hotel was impossible to enter due to its proximity to Ground Zero. So she went to visit a colleague's family in Rye, New York. There, a small act of kindness occurred that, in any other situation, might've been overlooked. But for Angelique, it meant everything.

Shelley Fitzgerald is from Westford, Massachusetts and this past Spring she lost her home. Unsure of where to go or what to do, something wonderful happened. A family she barely knew offered their motor home for her to stay in, for free, for as long as she needed. Regularly, they would check in on her, and welcomed her into their family with open arms. Listen to Shelley's story below.
This Spring I lost my house, I was too depressed to work, and somebody I barely knew offered to let me live in their motorhome in their driveway, and had come over and check on me, and kind of included me in their family. It made all the difference in the world, it was just an amazing thing. And I'm doing much better today, and 95% of it is because of the people who helped me out.

The Swirl Light Sculpture is the simplest design in the current range with a stylised plant on a Birch background, but this simplicity brings an elegance and a sense of space which is augmented by the light, especially at lower brightness levels where the depth and character of the carving become more striking. This Light Sculpture has proved to be popular in a minimalist space which requires a subtle lift or a certain je ne sais quoi.
Colours and Control
The Light Sculpture is supplied complete with a sophisticated remote control which allows you to select the colour of the light manually or to select any one of 15 different pre-programmed sequences. Manual colour selection is as simple as touching the colour wheel on the remote control and allows you to select up to 100 different shades which can also be varied in brightness. This will allow you to match your colour scheme, or simply keep you amused for quite some time. The remote control uses a radio frequency to communicate with the Light Sculpture and so it does not need to be pointed at the Light Sculpture. Each remote is uniquely linked to each Light Sculpture so that you can operate each Light Sculpture individually even if you have more than one in the same room.
Height: 412mm
Width: 260mm
Depth: 100mm
Remote control range: 20M, remote control requires 3x AAA batteries
The Light Sculpture can be simply stood on any suitable flat surface, or it can be wall-hung. For a slightly more elegant display, a stand can be provided separately which will raise the Light Sculpture slightly. Holes are provided in the back of the Light Sculpture for mounting on the wall and appropriate dimensions and instructions are included in the box.

Ultra-luxurious houseboats
By Christopher Solomon of MSN Real Estate
The new floating home: large and customized
Houseboats today are comfortable enough – and large enough – that people can spend long periods of time on them. "Houseboat manufacturers are building upwards of 100- by 28-foot houseboats," says Lindee Anderson, an industry observer and former editor of Houseboat magazine.
"Really the only thing that's inhibiting size right now is length restrictions on lakes" and limitations such as slip sizes. This model, by Sharpe Houseboats, is 75 feet long by 22 feet wide, with four bedrooms and two full baths. Its total square footage, including front and rear decks and cabin is 2,825 square feet.
With a growing trend toward customization, houseboats this size can cost in the mid to upper $800,000 range, says Sharpe's Brent Fothergill. "They're getting so much more elaborate."
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
In the (party) zone
In times past, "you wouldn't have much up there (on the top deck) except maybe a chair," says Sharpe Houseboats' Brent Fothergill. But this houseboat is a party zone: It's got everything from an ice maker, fridge and grill to an "oxygen bar" for refreshing flagging guests.
The pop-up plasma-screen TV (with satellite and auto-tracking, naturally, so you don't lose your signal as you cruise) swivels for best viewing in the hot tub or at the bar, and descends into the counter when not in use to avoid the elements and so as not to spoil the view when cruising. "It's wild, man," says Fothergill.
He adds that Sharpe just completed a boat that has dueling 58-inch TVs up on the deck; "that way, he could watch two ball games at once," he says of the owner. "He could have 80 people on top of that deck."
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Going up?
Entertaining on the top deck is more popular than ever, but "carrying the food from the galley up to the top deck has been a pain for houseboaters," says Lindee Anderson, formerly of Houseboat magazine.
Now try it with a bottle of wine, three glasses and a platter of hors d'oeuvres. The solution? A custom, mechanized dumbwaiter to deliver your wine and cheese from the galley to the top deck.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
All the gadgets of home
Gone are the days of simply playing cards next to a cooler of beer while afloat. This boat's salon, or front living area, has a flat-screen LCD TV in a cabinet of maple with accents of mappa burl from South America. There's an electric fireplace, and a custom stereo system (hidden) controls a "zone" entertainment system so the captain can listen to one CD as he steers while still other music plays on the upper deck and a movie plays in the salon.
Brent Fothergill of Sharpe Houseboats says interest in such tricked-out houseboats "has definitely increased over the years – especially among second- and third-time buyers, who now want more amenities."
This 3,095-square-foot houseboat, which includes all decks and 1,295 square feet of cabin living, costs $575,000.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
What's under your bed?"Houseboat manufacturers are very skilled at using every inch of space on a houseboat. They sort of have to be," says industry observer Lindee Anderson.
Many luxury houseboat builders will install a hydraulic master bed, to provide access to the space below. "The hydraulic lifts are pretty popular these days," Anderson says. "You're talking about trying to pack as many amenities into a houseboat as possible, to save space. And a sewing room is not something someone is going to use all the time, so tucking it away under a master bed is a good use of space."
Some people put a washer and dryer underneath their master bed, Anderson notes, while others use this area for a desk or for storage. Because the space extends down into the hull, you can stand up down there.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Say goodbye to cramped berths
This Sharpe Houseboats' master suite features a king-size bed and full closets behind those doors. Those nightstands? Yup, they're granite-topped. The headboard, cabinets and even the pillows are custom-made. "We're able to support all that weight" with today's aluminum hulls, says company spokesman Brent Fothergill.
Good design can make a houseboat feel even more spacious. That's why nicer boats use recessed lighting or have recessed trays to accommodate ceiling fans.
This houseboat, a nudge over 3,000 square feet, retails for $625,000
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Afloat, but still connected
"A lot of the boats accommodate a built-in desk area, where you can take a laptop," says Sharpe Houseboats' Brent Fothergill. Houseboats built several years ago never would have had this kind of room, or added this kind of workstation for someone who wants to keep in touch with the office.
Wait, you say: the Internet – in the middle of Lake Powell? Well, sort of. A lot of the marinas have Wi-Fi, or sometimes a boat owner can use a phone with a Wi-Fi card to keep in touch.
This 3,150-square-foot houseboat (including 1,350 square feet of inside cabin space) costs $545,000.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Home sweet $2 million home
In the market for a dinghy? Say hello to one of the most expensive houseboats on Earth. The $1.975 million craft – it's for sale – is full of custom touches, from the curved walls throughout the interior to the hand-carved Brazilian ipe rails and the mahogany stern cabinetry. Designers/makers Thoroughbred Houseboats intentionally mimicked "the yacht style," says Shawn Heinen, president and owner — though this is one yacht you can drive from four different onboard locations. Also, check out the custom bronze-patina horse adorning the stern that fits the boat's name: the Mane Decision.
Interior space alone measures about 1,850 square feet – with ceilings over eight feet high. The total square footage is more than 3,200.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Life on the upper deck
Atop Thoroughbred Houseboats' Mane Decision is a canopied, 44-foot-long upper deck with a horseshoe-shaped bar of black pearl granite that can seat 14 to 16 people. (The boat needs to be 22 feet wide to accommodate the bar.)
Around it are all the amenities for a swell time: an undermount sink, ice maker, fridge, trash compactor and cappuccino maker. Up to a half-dozen more guests can lounge up toward the flybridge as the boat is moving. And if it's a little hot in the sun? A mister ring cools things down by covering 300 square feet with fine spritzes of water.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
A '$50,000 bathroom'
Thoroughbred Houseboats' Mane Decision houseboat has three-and-a-half bathrooms, including one on the back deck with travertine sandstone floor tiles. The master suite bathroom (pictured above) is "a very unusual high-end bathroom" for a houseboat, says Thoroughbred President Shawn Heinen.
"The wall is all glass obsidian tiles with smoky topaz glass inserts." The fixtures include a rain showerhead overhead. "That's a $50,000 bathroom," he says.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Ready for liftoff
Amenities have gone, ahem, a little overboard at times. "This is more of an eccentricity, to have a helipad on a boat," says Houseboat magazine's just-departed editor, Lindee Anderson. Anderson recently visited a houseboat that had a movie theater and a climate-controlled wine cellar – though that, too, is not exactly usual, she says.
This boat, built by Kentucky's Fantasy Yachts, has about 2,000 square feet of indoor living space in four staterooms and three-and-a-half baths. It costs $750,000.
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Weatherproof aluminum not welcome
There's plenty of headroom — and elbow room — on this $825,000 boat on Arkansas' Lake Ouachita, which has a 1,550 square feet of interior space. Note the wooden spiral staircase and the burl-wood accents in the ceiling-fan recess.
And not a stitch of weatherproof aluminum anywhere. "The luxury is there," says industry observer Lindee Anderson. Houseboats used to be made of only lightweight materials, she says. No more. "As technology advances, I'm seeing a lot more upscale components going into houseboats."
Ultra-luxurious houseboats
Wine cellar? Check. Helipad? Check. Theater? Check.
Fred Finney of Finney Boat Works went all out when building La Dame du Lac, or The Lady of the Lake, his 100-foot-long, 28-foot-wide luxury houseboat on Idaho's Lake Coeur d'Alene. It's got a climate-controlled wine cellar (pictured), a helicopter landing pad, a home theater and other perks.
Press reports peg the boat at 6,200 square feet of total space, and its cost at roughly $3 million if built for a private customer.

By Karin McCay| email
LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) –Sue Wetzel was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis 9 years ago when she developed foot drop. That's where one foot wouldn't lift up to step forward. It was a problem that caused her to fall a lot. Many M-S patients experience foot drop, and like Sue, they may be helped by a foot stimulator device that prompts patients to walk more normally again.
The device is not new, but as more patients suffer from foot drop, they may not know that the Bioness L300 is perhaps the tool that could get them comfortably mobile again. The Bioness L300 electrically stimulates the foot, which gives it the lift it needs to take a normal step.
Sue Wetzel says that she "would always try to hold onto something because i was afraid if i tripped, i would fall on him...i love teaching, and it gives me hope to continue hopefully for a number of years." Orthotist, Butch Loveless calls it, "a life changing experience for patients, it really is. What the L300 does is when the weight comes off the heel it stimulates the nerve via the cuff and picks the foot up, when the weight is back on the heel it shuts the device off."
Traditionally, patients have used foot braces to treat foot drop, and they have come a long way over the years. They keep the foot at a 90 degree angle, so walking up hills or stairs are difficult. The Bioness L300 makes it possible to walk at an incline with a wide range of motion. The device can also help stroke victims, and people with traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries. The Bioness L300 costs about 6 thousand dollars, and here in Lubbock, Dr. Roger Wolcott says the Bioness L300 has been around just long enough now for some to be re-sold and re-furbished. Those are available at half the cost, and most insurance companies will now provide some help with the cost.

Ticket alert website blocked by LOCOG
A free website that alerts followers when tickets become available has been banned
A website that alerts followers when Olympic tickets are available has been blocked by LOCOG.
One of the big issues of the London Olympics so far has been the empty seats across many sports. The uproar that this caused led to organisers releasing more tickets through the official website.
However, there is no way of telling when tickets become available or for which sports.
Thousands of people have expressed the difficulty in getting these rereleased tickets.
Adam Naisbitt, 32, set up a free website - www.2012ticketalert.com - to help people find out when LOCOG released tickets, but it has since been blocked with no reason given by the organisers.
The alert system that sent a tweet to followers of the account @2012TicketAlert, became incredibly popular hitting almost 9,000 followers, and reaching over 150,000 people in total since Monday morning.
On Thursday night alerts suddenly stopped and since then there has been uproar amongst followers relying on the free service to get tickets.
Nearly 3,000 tweets have been sent overnight criticising LOCOG for banning the site.
Naisbitt, who owns a technology company in Milton Keynes, initially only set up the website to alert his fiancée when gymnastics tickets became available, but soon realised the system could benefit thousands of people doing the same.
"The bad thing is that I'm actually in the doghouse now, as my fiancée didn't get the gymnastics tickets, and with the site becoming so popular she has even less chance now. And now we're blocked she has to sit there refreshing her screen all day!", he told MSN Sport.
Adam believes that the official website not been built in a sufficient way to cope with vast traffic, "Their website is really, really bad. It's the Olympics of 2012 and the website has been coded like it's 1995."
"We were frustrated like thousands of other people. It took us just eight hours to build and with no benefit to us. We just wanted to help people get tickets."
"It gained traction very very quickly and we've just been blown away by it."
LOCOG have not explained to Adam why his site has been blocked.
LOCOG are terrified that anyone who hasn't paid them will benefit in any way from the games.
The games could have been a great opportunity for many small businesses throughout the UK to get back on their feet and in doing so help whip up enthusiasm for the UK Olympics but any way they could have been involved was blocked by LOCOG greed.
So much for a free and democratic country. What and who gives LOCOG the right and power to block someones website? The sooner that clown Coe and his cronies clear off the better. I'm sick and tired of seeing him.
And to his quest in finding who is the best Olympian ever, it certainly is NOT Mr. Coe
LOCOG, all members of the board should at the end of the day be billed for
all the empty seats at the end of the games.
It should be easy to work out and being billed out of their own pockets will be
a saving for the UK tax payer, and hopefully a lesson learned that no matter who

Entourage's season finale featured almost as much star wattage as the MTV VMAs, airing at the same time as Sunday's episode. Eminem, Minka Kelly, Ryan Howard, Drew Brees, Mark Cuban and Christina Aguilera all stopped in to help set up the series for its final season.Eminem thrives at VMAs ... then leavesBut as Jump the Shark fans well know, guest stars can be a sign of strength or weakness. It makes sense for a Hollywood-set show like Entourage to feature plenty of celebrity walk-ons — Sasha Grey has even stuck around for the season. But do you ever wish the show would focus less on guests and more on its core characters? Or does Entourage blend the two just perfectly?Let us know what you think in the comments below.
Yes, the show doesn't need them
No, they added to the story
It was perfect. I can't believe the show is ending next season

We should know next Tuesday night if Georgians want to give the state more power to create charter schools.
On Friday, students themselves tried to get voters to say yes to the controversial amendment.
Dozens of ralliers marched through downtown Atlanta, then to the steps of the state Capitol, chanting, "vote yes!" and "hope is in our hands!"
Nala Jewell is a sixth grader at Heritage Preparatory Academy in Atlanta.
Jewell believes the constitutional amendment would help ensure other kids get a chance at the same educational opportunity she has.
"You're helping them get a better opportunity," Jewell said. "When you vote for charter schools, you're helping not just my charter school, but everyone else's charter school."
Sen. Vincent Fort, who opposes the amendment that would expand the state's power to create and fund charter schools, said it would concentrate too much power over public education into the hands of politicians at the Statehouse.
"This is not about whether or not you think charter schools work," Fort said. "The local school board who you and I vote for ought to be the ones who authorize public schools."
Senate Majority Leader Chip Rogers, a key supporter of the amendment, said Fort was wrong.
"While I have great respect for Sen. Fort, he obviously hasn't read the bill," Rogers said, adding the amendment merely would give parents more options in their children's education. "All this does is allow the state to act as an appeals board if a local charter gets turned down."
The state board of education already has the power to create charter schools.
CBS Atlanta News asked Rogers if that's the case, why does Georgia need a constitutional amendment to reaffirm that?
CBS Atlanta will tell you what Rogers said at 6 p.m.

Damar DeRozan was a disappointment his rookie season (not even invited to the Rookie-Sophomore game) as the 9th overall pick, but he's recovered nicely this season and is the most talented shooting guard in his draft class.
From The Other Side: DeMar DeRozan and Fellow USC Trojan Nick Young
The first time I ever heard DeMar DeRozan was in May of 2009, when he was interviewed by Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld and others at the Chicago Pre-Draft Camp. He had just averaged 14 points and 5.7 rebounds as a freshman at USC and decided to declare for the NBA Draft. During this pre-draft camp, he bragged that he could jump higher than Vince Carter, he said his game compared to no one in the NBA, and he mentioned that he followed the Wizards because of his friendship with Washington guard Nick Young–who also attended USC.
The Wizards ended up trading their lottery pick that year, and DeRozan was drafted ninth overall by the Toronto Raptors.
The first time I actually met DeRozan was during the 2010 All-Star weekend in Dallas. He had just won the "Dunk-In Contest", which meant he could compete in the actual Dunk Contest (where he was the runner-up to Nate Robinson). The then-rookie was excited to be getting the exposure that comes with participating in All-Star weekend, and he was looking forward to soaking in as much of it as possible. I distinctly remember DeRozan saying, "USC baby!" as he walked away from the media, but I never thought to explore the relationship among the two Trojans, DeRozan and Young.
Shortly before the Raptors-Wizards game last night, I decided to do a bit of investigative journalism to find out more about this bond between the two players. My timing could not have been better, because DeRozan was coming off an impressive two-game stretch that saw him score a career-high 26 points in the Raptors' victory over the Orlando Magic, and 21 points in a close loss to the Miami Heat.
I asked DeRozan about how he met Nick Young, how their friendship has evolved, and about his raised level of play as of late:
Rashad Mobley: How did you first meet Nick Young?
DeMar DeRozan: "Come on man, all us L.A. ballers know each other. He was an L.A. guy and growing up, I always knew who he was since he was one of the top high school players, and then I would always run into him. I think everyone back home who's big in sports–especially basketball–makes a point to know each other."
RM: And you all have maintained a relationship since then?
DD: Oh yeah, we were cool before I went to [U]SC, we're cool when he comes home for the summer. He gives me advice on and off the court, he's just a good dude. We also play against each other in a little league back home (Kyle Weidie wrote a post on this in June of 2009), and we're also going hard at one another. JaVale [McGee] is in that league, Amir [Johnson] is there, James Harden from the Oklahoma City, O.J. Mayo, Baron Davis, a lot of people come out and play.
RM: How would you say Nick's game has improved since you initially met him?
DD: "Well one, he's gotten stronger in terms of upper body strength, so that's the first thing you notice. But his game is crazy, I used to watch and study him when he was at SC, and even in high school. He always got better, he always added a move here and there. He's always been an offensive threat, always."
RM: What about defense?
DD: (laughs) "He's always been an offensive threat."
RM: I talked to you earlier this year at the Slam Dunk contest, and that may have been the first time you had gotten serious national exposure. What did that experience do for your game on the court and your life off of it?
DD: "I think the Dunk Contest for someone like me was important because it put me on the main stage and it gave me confidence. I was playing okay before then, but afterward I felt like I had even more to prove. Plus, more people recognized me from being on TNT, and that's important because I'm sure a lot of folks don't get to see our [Raptors] games."
RM: Speaking of confidence, you seem to be playing even better as of late, what do you attribute that to?
DD: "It's confidence man, it's getting more comfortable in the offense and knowing what I gotta do when I'm out there. After a year under my belt, I know what to expect and I don't second guess anything anymore."
DeRozan had a relatively quiet game last night against the Wizards with just 12 points in 31 minutes of play. His friend Nick Young had anything but a quiet game with 20 points and six rebounds in just 29 minutes. After the game, fellow Truth About It reporter, John Townsend, talked to Young about his relationship with DeRozan.

Hi all, Im a newbie who just been learning html and css and building my first site for about a month or so and to date Ive managed to solve all of the issues that Ive come up against. However, Ive been stuck on how to use html5 on my site and have IE versions 8 and older play along for a few days now. Assuming that my css is correct (a big assumption I know but I guest that this part of the form is just for html), it would be great if you could cast an expert eye over the below html and let me know if there is anything wrong with it in terms of IE version 8 and older not playing along (by the way with the associated css it works fin in other browser):
