text: Forwarded with permission. Most wonderous people of Elfsea If anyone is available Saturday March 29th for our SAIL homeschool demo, we would appreciate your assistance if you are able to help. My thanks Katheryn Baroness of the Steppes ----- Forwarded Message ---- From: Deb Mach <dlhmach at gmail.com> To: steppes at lists.ansteorra.com; steppes at ansteorra.org; "Canton of Glaslyn - SCA, Inc." <glaslyn at lists.ansteorra.org>; lindenwood at lists.ansteorra.org Sent: Sunday, January 27, 2008 6:50:41 PM Subject: [Steppes] Why I'm So Excited About the Homeschool Demo! Dear Gentles, You many have seen posts on the lists lately about the Homeschool Demo on Saturday March 29th in McKinney. And you may be wondering what all the hype is about for a "school" demo. Or wondering how this demo could possibly be as good a use of time and resources as a gaming demo. Since I am the homeschooling mom who requested the demo, as well as a relatively new member of the SCA, I wanted to share with you why I am so excited to do this. First, this group of homeschoolers is not your typical homeschool group. Many of you may be familiar with homeschooling groups in your area or know people who are homeschooling. Often these groups are, esp. here in Texas, based on common religious reasons for homeschooling. These are wonderful groups and certainly meet the needs of those who join them. However, my homeschool group is different. It is an all-inclusive group that brings together homeschoolers who don't quite fit the normal mold of homeschooling. We have members from all religions (or no religion)...Christian, Jew, Muslim, Pagan, etc. We have families of all sizes and colors...single parents, traditional two parent, same-gender parents, mixed-race families, minority families, majority families, ranging in size from one parent - one child to two parents - 8 children! We are all united in one thing...we homeschool We homeschool in every way imaginable...and accept that each family makes their own choice for what works. But being with other homeschoolers who share our passion for learning at home is what holds us together. It reminds me of the SCA! We all come from different backgrounds, ethnic and cultural roots, varying economic brackets and geographical locations. Our interests are widely varied...from heavy fighting to archery to A&S...and yet we all join together to play and learn. Second, this event is a family event. Twice a year, SAIL (the homeschool group) holds a family picnic for its 99+ families (families, not children!) When we do this demo, there will be Dads checking out the heavy fighting and Moms looking at the Middle Eastern dancers and fiber arts. We have teengers and pre-teens, elementary age and preschoolers. Unlike a demo for a girl or boy scout troop, we have the opportunity to show what the SCA has to offer, not just to a few individuals but to whole families with time and income for a hobby like the SCA. Third, SAIL and the SCA both share a love and passion of history! Learning new skills, trying period arts, living and playing in an environment rich with history (our creative interpretation as well as historical research done by members) is a huge draw for homeschooling families like those my group. Oh, and I should mention that our families are very service oriented, volunteering in the community as well as within the homeschool group. Wouldn't they fit in nicely in the SCA? Finally, I am so excited about this demo because it is the same kind of demo that first introduced our family to the SCA. Before moving to Texas, we had the chance to attend a demo with our old homeschool group in the Phoenix, AZ area. It took two years and a move to Texas before the time was right for us to start playing. But it stuck in our minds and when we looked at ways to get to know people in Texas, our first thought was to call the local hospitalier here in the Steppes. (Thank you, Baroness Kathryn, for responding to that initial email back in 2006!) I hope this demo will be a mutually satisfying endeavor for both of these groups...SAIL and the SCA. I am grateful to Her Excellency for her support for this demo, as well as to Lady Elinor, HL Margarite, Rebbe Hadassah, Lady Viviana, Vyolente and others for stepping forward to volunteer already. More help is always appreciated! If you are an artisan with skills to share, a fighter with energy to fight, a bard with stories, a herald with knowledge and voice, or a player with many yet-untapped talents, please consider joining us for a day of fun! Thank you for letting me share my excitement with you!

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) – Hundreds of thousands of people will ascend on the Waterfront this weekend for the opening ceremonies of the Kentucky Derby Festival.
Louisville Metro Police hopes a select few will stand out.
"We are asking the community to come out and partner with Louisville Metro Police Department," Lt. LaVita Chavous said.
Lt. Chavous is calling on individuals to become Thunder Ambassadors – adults to walk the Waterfront and possibly help diffuse any situations.
"We are asking that you help us and assist of in indentifying those juveniles and then an officer will go to that group and ask them to quit or leave," she said.
Frank Porter is volunteering to be an Ambassador this weekend.
"I think the main thing is showing the unity with the police department to show we can get together and not have any threats of violence," he said.
Porter is on board but the group Man Up is looking for even more people to come forward.
"We are trying to get 40 ambassadors and we have about 10 to 15 so far. So our call is to get on board and let's get that to 40," Peter Hayes of Man Up said.
Those with the group say this is an opportunity the community shouldn't pass on.
"Let the community take ownership and not only the event but a part of the solution," Ray Barker said.
Volunteers are asked to participate from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. during the Thunder Over Louisville celebration.

PRO-TEC Coating Company of USA has successfully started hot commissioning of the continuous annealing line supplied by SMS Siemag and installed at the works in Leipsic, OH, USA.
The line has been designed for strips with gages from 0.6 to 2.3 mm and widths ranging from 700 to 1,650 mm. The process speed is 140 m/min, whereas in the entry and exit sections 200 m/min can be attained. The grades to be manufactured are CQ, DQ, DDQ, EDDQ, HSLA and further AHSS grades (DP, MP, CP, BH, TRIP, MS).
The line will be used to produce ultra high strength steel strips.
The line has been designed to produce almost 500,000 tonnes per year of steel strips for high strength automotive structural components, which improve the safety of vehicles while reducing their weight at the same time. The annealing process and special cooling strategies with particularly high cooling rates reduce strain hardening from the rolling process, enabling the sophisticated mechanical properties in the material to be set exactly as required.
Besides the design and manufacture of the mechanical equipment, the complete electrical and automation package was part of the supply scope of SMS Siemag. The high-capacity annealing furnace with integrated ultra-fast cooling system was provided by Drever International, also a company of the SMS group. For particularly high cooling rates, which allow the manufacture of martensitic grades and ultra -high strength multiphase steels, a water-quench system has been integrated as an additional feature. A further highlight is the nickel flash-coating system, which is used for coating the strip with nickel for special applications in the automotive industry.
Essential components of the line are two uncoilers, a welding machine, vertical entry accumulator, cleaning section, the Drever furnace, a water-quench system, pickling section, nickel flash coating section, skin-pass mill, tension leveler, intermediate loop tower, inspection station, DUMA-BANDZINK oiler, flying shear and two recoilers. The line layout makes provision for future upgrades in heating and cooling capacities and the addition of a roll coater for post-treatment and of a side trimmer.
PRO-TEC is a joint venture between United States Steel Corporation, USA, and Kobe Steel, Ltd., Japan, with several strip processing lines in Leipsic, Ohio.
