Royal roundup: Pippa gets her gun ... William gets his kicks ... Queen gets mail overload.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
It has been rough enough for Pippa Middleton that the book critics have savaged her. Now it's animal rights groups.
The Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister is suffering some backlash over a report in a Belgian newspaper, La Capitale, that detailed a hunting trip Pippa was on Dec. 1 in Gerpinnes, Belgium. It took place in woods owned by the country's richest man, Albert Frère, and was organized by his grandsons.

Great buy
Dawn from Grand Mound, IA– Verified Buyer
I purchased this to use in a bathroom remodel, for towel storage, etc. It is a very small space and this will be perfect. It arrived on time, and in good condition. Only one small knick. The only con I see is the difficulty in assembly, it would be much easier if the holes were on the outside of the legs, not the inside, it made placement of the screws difficult and tedious. Assembled it looks great!

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Your Guide to Leaf-Free Hockey
by Alanah McGinley on 10/05/07 at 03:15 PM ET
Comments (0)
From the Torontoist,
The leaves are falling; the days are getting colder and the nights longer. All this can only mean one thing. It's hockey season.
In Toronto, hockey is virtually synonymous with the Maple Leafs. Which is fine if you're into teams with questionable goaltending, aging stars and $45 nosebleed seats.
Luckily for us, the Leafs aren't the only game in town. Quality hockey, pleasantly free of suits in corporate boxes, can be found in and around Toronto.

Ukraine Restarts Gas Imports From Poland, Maxes Out Pipeline
Topic: Russia-Ukraine Gas Conflict
MOSCOW, April 17 (RIA Novosti) – Ukraine restarted imports of natural gas from Poland this week, maxing out the carrying capacity of a pipeline, the Polish Gaz System transit operator said Thursday.
According to the company, Ukraine imported up to four million cubic meters of gas on Tuesday, the maximum capacity of the pipeline. The delivery came following an agreement between German energy company RWE and Ukraine's state-run Naftogaz.
The annual volume of natural gas that Poland's Hermanovice hub can pump is 1.5 billion cubic meters. Gaz System added that deliveries are accounted for on a daily basis.
Next week the pipeline operator will hold an auction on the hub's carrying capacity for May.
Naftogaz and RWE signed a five-year agreement on gas supplies in May 2012. Under the document, Germany will supply Ukraine with 10 billion cubic meters of gas. Last year RWE sold Naftogaz 1 billion cubic meters.
Naftogaz's previous gas purchases from Poland were on a much smaller scale, and ceased completely in December after Russia gave Ukraine a 30 percent discount on gas imports, setting a price in the first quarter of this year at $268.50 per thousand cubic meters.
Moscow recently ended two $100 discounts on the price of gas exported to Ukraine, following the country's failure to pay its gas debts and the ending of an agreement on the basing rights for the Black Sea Fleet in Crimea.
Naftogaz said Tuesday it is ready to pay for imported gas from Russia at the previous price. The company currently owes Russian gas giant Gazprom $2.2 billion.

X Factor's Joe McElderry 'not gay' after Twitter hack
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
We all still know he's gay, right? :P
I'd just like everyone to know I'm gay.
Any rumours that say I am straight are a lie and a slur on my good character!
The thing is now, if he is then he missed his opportunity! I've liked him up till now but if he's lying he's a terrible role model to young gay people!
leave the guy alone to get on with his music if thats what he wants to do.
sad bunch of pathetic twats just think hes's gay because hes young and good looking…these people ought to get a life and leave others alone.
Erm… who cares?!
People think he's gay because he's off the chart on any person's properly functioning gaydar. It has nothing to do with with his age or how good looking he is or isn't. People care because it highlights how much pressure there still is to stay in the closet. It's not beyond the realms of possibility he's straight, but on common sense alone it's highly unlikely.
Come on. "There's no such thing as bad publicity"
If it get's him back in the spotlight, it's all news.
Now stop dribbling on Gaydar, and get some work done!
Bless you sugarlump. Always sad when you're the last one to know things.
As long as I didn't have to sleep with them I could have had plenty of girlfriends too! Lets cuddle in bed tonight and watch episodes of Glee together sweetie hahaha
I remember when I used to say what he said, before I came out of the closet. He'll get caught in some toilets in LA in twenty years. It's like a stuck Geroge Michael record. Who cares anyway?
Gay? Me? As if!
(dictated by Max Clifford)
Just because you want someone to be gay does not mean they are. There is no evidence that he is except a malicous hacker.
Alan "It's not beyond the realms of possibility he's straight, but on common sense alone it's highly unlikely."
Pity you have neither common sense or intelligence
Now now ICC256. There's nothing like a good old ad hominem attack to make you look silly. Thank you for making your criticism defunct for me. :) Wanting Jo to be gay doesn't enter into it. There's plenty of evidence that Jo is gay. A seminal study on 'gaydar' showed it takes a fraction of a second for most people to determine if another person is gay. You ought to read it. It seems you're in the in the minority that doesn't possess that common ability. For me, like many, it didn't even enter my head that Jo wasn't Jo. It wasn't a negative thing in the slightest; it was simply an intuitive understand. The only thing that then made it worthy of comment were Jo's strenuous and painfully contrived denials. Coming out is a difficult thing to do for many people so I'm quite happy for him to do that whenever it suits him. I just think it's a great shame it has to be that way.
'Jo wasn't Jo', was meant to read 'Jo wasn't gay'. Freudian slip. :P
*understanding (bloody typos!)
Joe Who?????????
Joe is so gay. Mark our words, in 1-2 months when he gets dropped by his record label he'll be on the front cover of the Sun newspaper saying Simon made me stay in the closet.
I just had to laugh when this came about. I think it's a shame he went to the Sun firstly to delcare he's straight and single. I don't fancy him but by god, anyone can see from a mile off he's gay.
I do care because the fact that he's clearly being forced to shut up about his sexuality means that younger gay men and women will follow suit and shut up about theirs – and they should be very proud of it.
He still irritates the hell out of me though.
He's clearly not gay.. No matter how much you lot say it. His twitter was HACKED, so just get over it. Because if he was gay, it would have been all over the news by now. So just get over it. Just because he hasnt got a girlfriend atm, that's because he wants to concentrate on his music, what's so wrong with that?

Amazed. That is the best word we can use to describe how The Link''d Young Professionals group feels after our first Clean Sweep Columbus. The weather may not have been perfect but we pushed forward and made the best of our day. We would like to thank everyone who participated. Thanks to everyone''s efforts, we were able to make Columbus shine and look its best. Without the tremendous support we received from our local elected officials, local businesses, and the overwhelming support of you, the community, this event would not have been possible.
We would especially like to thank the many sponsors for their donations. Without the full support of the community we would have been unable to pull off this city- and county-wide event. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for embracing your community and making Clean Sweep Columbus the success that it was.
We will start planning soon for Clean Sweep Columbus 2010. Expect to hear from us again soon on details.
Kacie Reeves, Columbus

David Sedaris' autobiographical essays have always read somewhat like fables. That is, short, clever and often containing some sort of lesson, usually at his own expense. Now he's taking that to its natural end, rejiggering himself as a modern-day fabulist and composing a collection of tales that use animals to explore man's many foibles. Of course, it'll probably end up more acerbic than Aesop and more laugh-inducing than LaFontaine. Check out an exclusive clip from Squirrel Meets Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiary, featuring Sedaris reading some clever rhyming couplets over original illustrations by Ian Falconer, which also feature in the book.
David Sedaris speaks of creatures great and small in an exclusive clip from 'Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk'
This is exciting! This is a minority opinion, I know, but I preferred the stories in Barrel Fever over many of his other books. I've always always wished he would do more fiction. Definitely buying this.
David Sedaris is a genius!

Military guard of honour watches over Solzhenitsyn as Russians bid farewell
Wednesday 06 August 2008
Hundreds of Russians braved driving rain in Moscow to bid farewell to the writer and Soviet-era dissident Alexander Solzhenitsyn, whose body lay in an open coffin at Russia's leading scientific institute.
Perhaps partly due to the weather, no long, snaking queues of people waited to pay their last respects, as happened last year after the deaths in quick succession of Boris Yeltsin and the cellist Mstislav Rostropovich. Most mourners at the Russian Academy of Sciences were elderly Russians who had read Solzhenitsyn's works in samizdat (secretly published) form during the 1970s and 1980s.
"He was a great man, one of the few honest people of those times," said a 62-year-old English teacher who had braved the weather to say goodbye to one of her icons. She was clutching an English-language copy of The Gulag Archipelago, Solzhenitsyn's work chronicling the horror of the Soviet camp system, that had been smuggled into the Soviet Union in the late 1970s inside the cover of a cheap science-fiction novel.
Solzhenitsyn, a Nobel laureate whose other works included A Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich and The First Circle, died late on Sunday at his home outside Moscow, aged 89. He spent two decades in exile in the West after his writing fell foul of Soviet censorship, and he returned to the new Russia in 1994.
Younger Russians were mainly absent from the hall yesterday. The ageing writer and his crusade against Soviet tyranny have diminished in relevance in a new Moscow flush with cash and where the authorities have promoted a more rosy view of the Soviet past.
It was during his years in exile that Solzhenitsyn was at the peak of his fame and influence. Then, it would have been hard to imagine his final resting place would be Moscow, and that his body would be surrounded by a military guard of honour while a former KGB operative paid his last respects.
But that is what happened. The current Prime Minister and former president Vladimir Putin, who joined the KGB shortly after Solzhenitsyn was expelled from the Soviet Union in 1974, laid roses by the casket yesterday and gave a hug and proffered condolences to Solzhenitsyn's widow, Natalya. Mr Putin later called for Solzhenitsyn's works to become part of the Russian school curriculum. "Together with the entire nation, he lived through a great tragedy of repressions," he said. "By his works and his entire life, he innoculated our society against tyranny in all its forms."
Stanislav Govorukhin, a prominent film-maker and member of parliament who made a documentary about Solzhenitsyn in the early 1990s, said the writer had been a figure of "world significance" and had been instrumental in paving the way for Mikhail Gorbachev's perestroika reforms. After paying his respects, he said only three other people had exerted such influence in Russia – Lenin, Stalin and Pyotr Stolypin, the Tsarist-era prime minister.
The funeral takes place this morning at Moscow's Donskoi monastery.

The room was very clean and professionally maintained with all services promises kept. The hotel was cozy, quaint, and would have been ideal for family entertainment had I been able to have my family with me. I will be back!
Although there was no visible mold, the room could have used a plug-in air freshener. Maybe the air and heating unit and ducts need a thorough cleaning?
Very nice room, clean and modern. Plenty of luggage trolleys available to take cases to the room. Very good breakfast and the breakfast room was a decent size with sufficient tables for the demand.
Swimming pool water wasn't very warm. Other than a Wendys about 400 yards away and across a very busy road, there was nowhere within a short walking distance of the hotel to get something to eat.
Breakfast was good.
Air conditioning is working very loud, some of our group was not able to had a good sleep. Carpets in the room were wet.
The location of this property was excellent. The pool was nice. The room was nice and clean.
I didn't like the fact that they changed a $100 deposit and I wasn't aware up front.
The bed only
Everything was awful.. A dive hotel. Room smelled awful and no hot water to shower
Rooms were dated but clean. Staff friendly and helpful. Good place to stay prior to cruising. Shuttle from airport and to cruise port. Hot breakfast with good variety. Close to shops for last minute items. Will return.
We arrived early and Arlene was very pleasant and friendly. She got us in a room within a half hour. Although we didn't ask for a handicap room she saw that my wife was on a scooter so she gave us the special treatment and made sure we got one. Can't say enough about how nice all the staff were. Even the maintenance workers and the lady making the breakfast were friendly. The pool area was relaxing with a bar if you wanted a cool drink. Enjoyed the music they were playing.
10/2014. Arriving the hotel front looked 1960. People were very nice. Pool area looked great. Arrived in my room, disappointed to see mirrors on the walls. Nails rusting in the molding. A square box on ceiling where mirror use to hang. Air was not getting very cold called desk. Guy came said sorry no extra rooms. Tell them in the morning. I proceeded to ask about the musty smell. He replied new carpet, it was the glue I smelled. ...hmmm Room had a drop ceiling , odd.... Tiles in the shower had black mold. I posted pictures on booking. Com
You can tell they tried improving the facility. All rooms wrap around the pool area loss of green and flowers. Workers really nice and helpful. The only thing that was best Western standard was the super cozy new bed. Leaving I stopped in the office and told the manner. ..... he replied oh I'm sorry have a good day.
Clean, nice breakfast
we booked 8 days, but had to leave on the 4th day.We were charged for all 8 days.I would have appreciated at least a partial credit.
Poor judgement for other people! Compensation for noise was very belittling!
Location on main route. Mall outside. 5 min drive to beach. Free parking.Comfy beds.
Our room had a couple of problems. It was very high 80s outside, air con needed to be on all the time. Atmosphere in room very unpleasant and for some reason the hotel has carpeted floors. The floor felt damp and sticky and was definitely mildewed, the notices about everything being super- cleaned were a joke as anything under/behind (eg lamp cables/inside wardrobe) covered in a thick layer of sticky dust. Bathroom certainly needs updating. We actually needed someone to show us how to operate the shower.
Staff are very friendly. All amenity are there.
Shower room 331 was cold water all the time we stayed. Asked for help,then told everybody using shower. But we tried off times, still cold,cold shower.
The location.
Everything else, but the location.
The location
As soon we walking to the room there is was bugs on the wall , and in the shower we found long hair on the bath tub from prior customers. AC unit wa noisy and not working property. Laundry services were out of service same as the vending machine on the third floor, it took my money and went to the lobby and explained the problem to the manager in duty and he nicely reemburse my money and I suggested to him to put up a sign there so customers won't use that vending machine , I checked next day and still was not sign on it.
My overall experience was great. I enjoyed my stay with my kids.
Breakfast was good.
Because you book your room through "booking.com" they will give you the worst room ever. There is a huge car wash right back to back with some room, so, at 7 am it is impossible to sleep because they have very loud compressor working and the car wash starts working at 7 am. I complaint with the front desk and the woman said nothing else them a meanless "I am sorry"!!! DO NOT BOOK any room at this hotel. It is not worst it.
O carpete parece sujo, mas é antigo mesmo.
Very friendly staff start to finish
Location was convenient. Staff were helpful
Funny smell inside the room.carpet needs to be cleaned or upgraded. Facilities need a minor upgrade
Poor Air conditioning, vending machine not refilled
Great choice on the breakfast
The night person was very rude when we got to the hotel, and the only reason we stayed was because it was around 2am in the morning and we were exhausted and had to be up for 5am to cook for a wedding later that afternoon. He acted as is he was doing us a favor not that we had already committed our credit card to pay for living there. There was no reason for his rudeness. I also shared this incident with another staff member, who apologized for him, but the damage was done already. We don't plan to come back to this Best Western. Uncomfortable pillows
Rude checking in and out and it was same gentleman both times
Price, location, comfort, breakfast
The free WiFi was either slow or nonexistent.
The staff, the pool, location and self parkimg.

KUALA LUMPUR: It's confirmed that Lembah MP Nurul Izzah Anwar has filed a divorce petition against her husband, Raja Ahmad Shahrir Iskandar Raja Salim at the lower Syariah Court at Jalan Duta.
A check of the court records by The Star Online showed that a divorce case exists between the PKR vice-president and her husband.
Nurul, 33, has sought the divorce under Fasakh (to annul the marriage) with Raja Ahamd Shahrir Iskandar, 35, in late December through the petition.
Raja Ahmad Shahrir Iskandar is believed to have received the petition on Jan 16.
He has asked for a two-week postponement of the proceeding for him to enable him to prepare his case.
It could not be ascertained if a third party was involved in the break up of the couple.
Court officials confirmed that their divorce case was in the system and Nurul and her husband were both parties in the suit.
They said that the case was set for mention before lower Syariah Court judge Ab Malek Awang.
Both Nurul Izzah and Raja Ahamd Shahrir Iskandar were not available for comment on the alleged divorce action.
When contacted at around 11.40am Thursday, Nurul Izzah's phone rang twice and the line was cut after which the phone was switched off.
Around noon, Nurul Izzah had tweeted that she was attending the Asli's the 16th Malaysia Strategic Outlook Conference.
Nurul Izzah and Raja Ahmad Shahrir Iskandar were married on May 9, 2003.
The marriage ceremony was held at the residence of Nurul Izzah's father Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim at Bukit Damansara.
The couple has a seven-year-old girl and four-year-old boy.

Northwoods Spotlight - Northland Pines basketball brothers - Mar 5
Submitted: 03/05/2014
Story By Joe Dufek
Play Video
- Last week, the season ended for the Northland Pines boys basketball team. The team only won one game all season long.
But for one Eagle River family, great memories were made - despite the record.
That's because one of the sons is able to enjoy life from the sidelines - despite obstacles.
Ken Kluever of Eagle River and his wife Carie learned their second child - Austin has spinal bifida. It's is a developmental congenital disorder caused by the incomplete closing of the embryonic neural tube. Some vertebrae overlying the spinal cord are not fully formed. Austin will be bound to a wheel chair his whole life.
"I don't even let it be an issue," Austin explains. "I'd like to be either a coach or a sports therapist."
Austin loves sports - just like any teenager. In fact, the family enjoys watching their oldest son Zach play for the Northland Pines basketball team.
"All the guys like (Austin) when he hangs out with the team," Zach said. "Everyone knows him. He is always there. It's a fun time."
"I could see it from the coach's standpoint," Northland Pines head coach Brent Luebke adds. "(Zach) wanted to play for and get the opportunity to represent his brother and his family."
Winning just one game this year, it was a tough season for the Eagles. However, despite all of the losses, game night was always special.
"It's amazing to watch him play and see how good he is," Austin explains. "His shooting and dribbing."
But that doesn't mean Austin was above giving Zach grief after a game - typical for brothers.
"Every now and again, he would say something under his breath," Zach points out with a laugh. "Try not to make it obvious, but he was always there."
"It's made us closer," Ken adds. "We wouldn't change anything we have done."

25th Senate candidates differ over mining law, agree on importance of broadband and education
Submitted: 10/31/2014
Play Video
- The mining issue might decide the winner of the 25th State senate district. The huge district covers a large portion of northern Wisconsin stretching from parts of Vilas County to parts of Barron County. Two types of mines have caused controversy in the district. A proposed taconite mine in the north, and sand mines in the west.
Gogebic Taconite is proposing a four-mile open pit taconite mine in Ashland and Iron County. Project leaders say the project will lead to 700 direct jobs, as well as numerous spillover jobs because of the construction of the mine.
Republicans rewrote and passed the state's mining law in 2013. Many believe the rule change weakened water protections, but Republican candidate Dane Deutsch doesn't agree.

Man arrested over woman's death in Middlesbrough
Monday 02 July 2012
Police who launched a manhunt after a woman's body was discovered at an address arrested a 47-year-old man in a town centre on suspicion of murder.
A force spokeswoman said a man was arrested in Middlesbrough town centre a short time ago and thanked the public and media for their help.
Cleveland Police said: "He is currently in police custody and inquiries are ongoing at this time."
They have not yet named the victim. Local reports suggest she may have been from the Hartlepool area.
Officers were called to the council estate - one of Middlesbrough's biggest - early today.
They cordoned off several streets around the brick-built terrace and put up a white forensics tent in the front yard.
Some residents said they were awoken by officers as they conducted door-to-door inquiries.
One woman, who lives a few doors from the scene, said: "I was woken at about 4am and the police came round to talk to us.
"It's just rumours flying round at the moment.
"This is a quiet road of the estate. It's mainly older people who live here. Everyone just keeps themselves to themselves."
The street, which overlooks the Middlesbrough to Redcar trunk road was otherwise quiet this morning.
Several neighbours kept an eye on the scene from their doorsteps and crowds of youths gathered on bikes.

A group of state senators introduced legislation this morning that would make English Minnesota's official state language, setting the stage for what will likely be the Legislature's first serious debate over the issue.
The bill would make it illegal for the state to require documents, proceedings or other state activities to be in a non-English language. Exceptions are made for defending criminal defendants and protecting "the public health or safety."
The Senate bill mirrors legislation introduced in the House earlier this month. Sen. Bill Ingebrigtsen is carrying the Senate bill. Rep. Steve Drazkowski is carrying in the House.
GOP majorities in the Legislature could send the bill to the governor's desk. But as with many recent GOP-sponsored bills, Gov. Dayton said he was against English-only legislation while on the campaign trail.
The city of Lino Lakes passed a similar resolution
similar legislation this summer after a heated debate. Supporters said it was necessary to reign in translation costs. Opponents said such measures alienate immigrants from civic engagement.
More than 20 states have some form of English-only legislation on the books.

LNG plan clears early hurdle in Astoria
|| Print |
|Saturday, September 01, 2007
ASTORIA NorthernStar Natural Gas cleared a major hurdle on the long regulatory path to building its Bradwood Landing LNG terminal about 20 miles east of Astoria. A preliminary environmental staff report by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission says that a liquid natural gas (LNG) project on the Columbia River could impact the river ecosystem but with the right mitigation, building the contested facility is environmentally acceptable. The report outlined 98 recommendations on handling safety and environmental risks. Bradwood Landing — and four other terminals in Oregon that are at earlier permitting stages — has sparked fierce debate over environmental, safety and economic risks posed by LNG. The public has until Dec. 4 to comment on the report.

Senator Lamar Alexander urged Congress to fully implement the 200 Head Start Centers of Excellence it previously authorized in 2007, saying "the question is not whether, but how best to make early childhood education available to the largest possible number of children in order to give them more of an equal opportunity."
The senator delivered his remarks at a hearing of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee. He said Washington should give states additional flexibility to pool existing federal, state and local funds to improve their early childhood education programs, such as through the 200 Head Start Centers of Excellence around the country, instead of falling back "into the familiar Washington pattern" of creating mandates and making states pay for the federal government's promises.
In questions to witnesses following his opening statement, the senator discussed how to improve the Head Start Centers of Excellence, and other ways for states to have more autonomy and resources in making decisions about education. For example in Tennessee, the senator said, Medicaid spending has gone from 8 percent of the state budget when he was governor to 30 percent of the state budget today.
Senator Alexander said, "When we look down the road 10 years and see mandatory entitlement spending going up 80 percent, that squeezes out of the federal budget and the state budget the dollars that we'd like to invest in education, including early childhood education."
Alexander's full opening remarks are below:
I was an early learner when it comes to the value of early childhood education. For 35 years, my mother operated a preschool program in a converted garage in our backyard in Maryville, Tennessee. She had nowhere else to put me when I was a child, so I must be the only United States senator who spent five years in kindergarten.
In the 1960s, she persuaded my father, a former school principal who was on the school board, to build kindergarten classrooms in new schools before the state kindergarten program began.
In the early 1970s, Tennessee's governor announced the beginning of a statewide kindergarten program at my mother's preschool.
In 1987, with Bob Keeshan, better known as Captain Kangaroo, my wife and I founded a company that merged with another company and became the largest provider of worksite day care in the country.
So, for me, the question is not whether but how best to make early childhood education available to the largest possible number of children in order to give them more of an equal opportunity.
In doing this, I have four suggestions.
First, preschool education does not produce miracles. As Mark Lipsey, a psychologist at Vanderbilt University, said, "advocates sometimes make preschool sound like you put them in the pre-K washing machines and scrub them clean. And they come out after that. But effects of poverty and disadvantaged environments don't work that way. It's a cumulative process and it's going to take cumulative efforts to make a big difference. There's potential here, but we also have to be realistic."
Second, good parenting is the most important factor and good preschool education doesn't always have to be expensive. For example, one of the most effective programs in Tennessee was my wife's "Healthy Children" initiative, which matched expectant mothers with pediatricians giving every new child a medical home. Helping those mothers become better parents provided those babies with a real head start.
Third, Washington can help, but a national effort to expand effective early education will be almost all state and local effort and money. Remember that approximately 90 percent of elementary and secondary education is paid for by state and local governments.
Fourth, the best next step for Washington to take would be to spend more effectively the federal dollars already being spent on early education.
A 2012 GAO report found 45 federal programs providing some early learning and child care. Twelve of these 45 programs spend about $15 billion solely on early learning and child care for children under the age of five:
· $8.6 billion on Head Start
· $5.3 billion on Child Care Development Block Grant and Fund
· $250 million on Race to the Top – Early Learning Challenge Fund
· $790 million in grants for two programs under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act
In addition, through the federal tax code, we spend roughly $3 billion a year on early child care and education credits and exclusions for employer-provided care. In addition to those 18 billion federal dollars, states spend about $5 billion on preschool annually, according to the National Institute for Early Education Research. Add to that local and private spending.
According to GAO, these numerous initiatives have created a "fragmentation of efforts, some overlap of goals or activities, and potential confusion among families and other program users."
So, let me suggest one way I believe we could greatly expand effective access to preschool education and one way we should not.
We should fully implement the 200 Head Start Centers of Excellence program Congress authorized in 2007, encouraging and putting the spotlight on those cities and communities doing the best job of coordinating the 18 billion federal dollars already being spent with the billions of other dollars being spent by state, local, and private entities.
I first proposed creating Head Start Centers of Excellence in Early Childhood in 2003, and the idea was eventually included in the 2007 reauthorization of the Head Start Act.
In 2009, Congress appropriated $2 million to fund 10 of these centers for a period of up to five years, ending this year. One of those is represented here today. Full funding would cost another $90 million.
At the end of five years, when it is time for the next reauthorization of Head Start, we can take what we have learned and decide how best to continue the expansion.
Here is what we should not do – and that is to fall back into the familiar Washington pattern of noble intentions, a grand promise, lots of federal mandates and sending the bill to the states with disappointing results.
That describes the president's proposal for "preschool for all."
To former governors like me, it sounds like the Medicaid program of federal promises and mandates that have become a costly burden for states.
Here there is another grand promise: $75 billion over 10 years to expand preschool for four-year-olds who live at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty definition.
Then many expensive Washington requirements for states to follow concerning:
· teacher qualifications;
· class size and child to instructor ratios;
· teacher salaries; and
· early-learning standards.
A nearly identical plan has been introduced here in the Senate.
Just like Medicaid, both proposals send huge bills for all this to the states. States would only pay only about 10 percent of the cost in the first year. But that would rise over 10 years to 50 percent in one proposal and 75 percent of the total cost in the other proposal.
This is the Medicaid model that is burdening states today, soaking up dollars that states would otherwise spend on education, including preschool education.
When I was governor of Tennessee in the 1980s, Medicaid was 8 percent of our state budget. Today, it is nearly 30 percent.
So, my recommendation for the best next step toward the goal of giving access to preschool education for the largest number of children is to fully implement the 200 Head Start Centers of Excellence program enabling states to pool existing funds, try different approaches, and figure out what works for their populations and children, rather than force upon states from Washington another set of grand promises, expensive mandates and disappointing results.

Pa. District Acknowledges Capturing Webcam Images
A suburban Philadelphia school district secretly captured at least 56,000 webcam photographs and screen shots from laptop computers issued to high school students, its lawyer acknowledged last week.
"It's clear there were students who were likely captured in their homes," said Henry Hockeimer, who represents the Lower Merion district.
None of the images, captured by a tracking program to find missing computers, appeared to be salacious or inappropriate, he said. The district said it remotely activated the tracking software to find 80 missing laptops in the past two years.
The Philadelphia Inquirer first reported on April 19 on the large number of images recovered from school servers by forensic computer experts, who were hired after student Blake Robbins filed suit over the tracking practice.
The FBI has opened a criminal investigation into possible wiretap violations by the district, and U.S. Sen. Arlen Specter, D-Pa., has introduced a bill to include webcam surveillance under the federal wiretap statute.
The school district expects to release a written report on an internal investigation in the next few weeks, Mr. Hockeimer said.
