FINNEQAN, DURHAM Q PINE ATTORNEYS United States Patent MEDIUM CONSUMPTION METERING AND INV OICIN G MECHANISM Edgar Winiger, Lucerne, Switzerland, assignor to Electrometre, S.A., Zug, Switzerland, a body corporate of Switzerland Filed Aug. 24, 1962, Ser. No. 219,296 Claims priority, application Switzerland, Sept. 15, 1961, 10,704/ 61 5 Claims. (Cl. 221-2) This invention relates to metering and invoicing the consumption of media such as electricity, gas and water.
In order to make it simpler and cheaper to charge for the amount of electricty, gas, water or any other medium withdrawn from the supply mains by a consumer in sup ply installations, it has been proposed to charge for it not at fixed intervals of time, as has been done hitherto almost universally, but rather each time the quantity withdrawn by the consumer has reached a predetermined sum agreed on with the consumer. (It is of course possible, without altering this latter principle, to replace the predetermined quantity of medium by a fixed monetary amount representing the value of the medium consumed.)
Thus according to this proposal fixed-period accounting heretofore widely practised, is replaced by fixed-quantity (amount of medium or equivalent value) accounting. For this purpose apparatus is installed in the consumers premises and is controlled by a flow meter such as an electricity meter. Each time the reading on the flow meter increases by the predetermined fixed amount, the apparatus automatically prepares for withdrawal, or issues, a bill for the fixed quantity or for the corresponding amount of money. The bill, which is preferably in the form of a card, is then presented by the consumer to the accounts department of the supply utility.
This previously proposed fixed-amount charging system has the great advantage that the consumer no longer needs to be visited periodically, approximately once a month, by an agent of the utility in order for the meter to be read. This saves considerable labor and avoids much inconvenience, e.g., inability to gain access to the consumers meter. A further great advantage is that, for the individual consumer or even for a large group of consumers, the accounts department has only to deal with bills for one and the same amount. This particularly makes it easier or even profitable to install mechanical means for dealing with the bills, especially if these are in card form.
In the previously proposed accounting method the bills do not of course come in at regular intervals. Particularly in the case of consumers with a widely fluctuating consumption rate, the time elapsing between the receipt of individual bills may in some cases result in large fluctuations in the amount of work to be done by the accounts department. Under certain conditions, therefore, the regular receipt of bills, such as is ensured to a certain extent by the conventional charging method working on the fixed-time principle, may again be regarded as advantageous.
The present invention therefore aims at providing an apparatus for charging for the amount of a medium withdrawn by a consumer from the supply mains in which the advantages of the fixed-amount principle are combined with those of the fixed-period principle. Other objects and advantages of the invention will be set forth in part hereinafter and in part will be obvious herefrom or may be learned by practice with the invention, the
The invention retains the fixed amount charging feature, so that bills, preferably in card form, are issued by the charging apparatus in dependence of the quantity consumed as determined by measurement. Each bill is made out for a predetermined consumption amount or the corresponding amount of money, is marked to identify the consumer, and is for a predetermined value. The charging apparatus according to the invention is distinctive, however, in that the issuance of individual bills takes place at least approximately, at equal intervals of time. In order to provide correspondence between the invoice amount charged the consumer on the basis of the bill issued and the amount actually consumed by him at issuance time, there are provided bills of at least two different values. One of these bills is selected by a selector mechanism which is controlled in dependence on the measured consumption.
It is desirable that the charging apparatus according to the invention be designed such that, at the times stipulated for issuing a bill, a bill is issued even if, owing to a lack of further consumption, the consumption measurement result has not changed since the previous bill was issued. This ensures that bills are obtained at regular intervals in all circumstances, which is highly desirable, for example for control reasons. The consumer will generally have to pay a basic charge or meter rent in addition to the cost of the medium consumed. This charge can be included as the lowest value for a bill. Bills of the lowest value are thus issued if there has been no consumption at all in the interim or if the consumption measured is below the limit of a given range. This consumption range is followed by a higher range, and if the amount consumed is within the higher range when the bill is issued, then the bill issued is of the higher value. Thus the number of consumption ranges and corresponding bill values must be at least two, but beyond this can be chosen at will according to circumstances. The highest bill value can correspond to the probable maximum consumption per period of issue. Intermediate values are preferably chosen to correspond approximately with the mean value of the measurement range leading to their 188116.
There is usually a diflFerence between the amount charged on the issued invoice and the amount actually consumed by the consumer. This difference can be indicated and made readable as from a counter, and is taken into account in the following charging period. The counter indication may be used for intermediate reading and checking.
With apparatus according to the invention it is also possible, without any appreciable extra expense, to charge jointly for supplies from two or more different mains, for example for the electricity, water and gas used by a consumer, using only one type of bill. This can be done if the readings on the different flow meters are first conveyed to a common tariif apparatus which converts the amounts measured into the corresponding amounts of money on the basis of the tariff applicable to each medium consumed, and then totals the monetary amounts. In dependence on the total amount, the tariff apparatus then controls the selector mechanism in choosing the bills to be issued according to their value.
The invention consists in the novel parts, constructions, arrangements, combinations and improvements herein shown and described.
The invention is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings of exemplary apparatus, in
which FIGURE 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment illustrating functional instrumentalities and their relationship; FIGURE 2 is a schematic perspective view illustrating the control of an intermittent stepping mechanism by a rotary member of a flow meter;
FIGURE 3 is a schematic view illustrating details of tariff apparatus, a card selector and a multiple card container; and
FIGURE 4 is a schematic perspective view illustrating an exempary electromagnetic card ejector.
FIGURE 1 is a block diagram showing the interaction of the individual elements of charging apparatus according to the invention. It is assumed that in addition to electricity consumption, the consumption of water and gas are to be charged for with common bills. A water meter W and a gas meter G are accordingy provided as well as an electricity meter E. All three signal their readings at any given time, in cubic meters, and kw.-hr. respectively, to a common tariff apparatus T. The tariff apparatus T converts the measurements signalled to it into the corresponding amounts of money on the basis of the rates in force for the separate media, and totals these amounts. It is quite unnecessary in the illustrated arrangement for the unit rate for the individual media to be constant; as symbolized by the line h running from time switch S to the tariff apparatus T, the individual rates can be altered by the switch as a function of time.
The starting value of the tariff apparatus T, expressed, for example, in dollars, is then transferred to a selector KW, which is referred to as a card selector on the assumption that the bills issued are in the form of cards. At approximately equal intervals of time the card selector KW receives a command, either from the time switch S or through a central remote control device F, and is thereby actuated to select and issue a card of suitable value from the invoice cards in a multiple card container KB. Selection and issuance is made according to the inputs to the tariff apparatus T and the corresponding monetary amount. As illustrated, four card dispensers I to IV are provided each being capable of dispensing cards of a different value. A card from dispenser I is taken as being of the lowest value and a card from dispenser IV is taken as being of the highest value. It should be emphasized that it is not absolutely necessary to provide the tariff apparatus T since if the rate is constant, the card selector KW can be controlled directly by a flow counter.
Further details of the invoice rendering apparatus according to the invention are shown in FIGURES 2 to 4 which, when taken together, illustrate a complete system for periodically rendering invoices in accordance with consumption of electricity.
FIGURE 2 shows the functional Group E and part of the functional Group T. As electricity is consumed the driving disc 1 of an electricity meter (not otherwise shown) turns in the direction of the arrow and drives a shaft 5 through pairs of gears 2, 3, 4. On the shaft 5 there is mounted a gear 6 which drives a gear 7 on a shaft 8. The latter carries a trip cam 9 to operate a switch 10. It is desirable to make the pair of gears 3 of interchangeable character to permit adjustment of the elec-.
tricity tariff. Unit consumption produces a complete revolution of the shaft 8.
The shaft 5 also drives a counter 13 through bevel gears 11 and 12.
The switch controls the energizing current of two coils 14 and 15, each of which in the energized condition draws a thrust rod 16 in the direction of the arrow shown adjacent the respective coil. The two end positions of the thrust rod 16 are determined by a detent 17 which engages in grooves 18 in the rod. In the end positions of the thrust rod 16, the supply of current to the coil which has drawn the rod into the appropriate end position is in each case interrupted by means of the respective contacs 19 or 20 operated by the rod.
Coupled with the thrust rod 16 is a lever 21 which is pivotally mounted on a shaft 22 and the upper end of which carries a flexibly mounted pawl 23 which is kept in permanent engagement with a ratchet wheel 24 by a spring 4 (not shown). The wheel 24 is fixed to a shaft 25. A pawl 26 prevents the wheel 24 from returning.
The trip cam 9 is shown in a position where the contact spring 27 of the switch It) has just dropped over one edge 23 of an upper cam plate. As a result of the concomitant withdrawal of an insulated striker 29 fixed on the contact spring 27, the contact spring 31 becomes biased against the contact spring 31, so that the coil 14 receives current through the contact 19 from a voltage source indicated at 32. The coil thus urges the thrust rod 16 to the right. This movement of the thrust rod 16 moves the pawl 23 to the left through the lever 21 causing it to move by one tooth pitch. During this movement the pawl 26 prevents the wheel 24 from turning with pawl 23.
If the cam 9 continues turning, then after a further half revolution thereof, the contact spring 31 drops over one edge 33 and abuts against the contact spring 27. In this way the coil 15 receives voltage via the contact 2t) and returns the thrust rod 16 to the left. This action opens contact 20 and recloses contact 19. During the leftward movement of the thrust rod 16, the pawl 23 moves to the right and thus turns the wheel 24 a given angular amount in the direction of the arrow.
FIGURE 3 illustrates further details of the tariff apparatus T and the card selector KW shown in the block diagram in FIGURE 1. It also shows the multiple card container KB in simplified form.
FIGURE 3 also shows the shaft 25, which was turned by the arrangement shown in FIGURE 2. It will be remembered from the preceding description that when electricity is being consumed the shaft 25 turns through a specific angular distance for each kilowatt-hour consumed. On this shaft there is mounted a pinion 34 engaging a gear 35. These gears are interchangeable so that the price per kilowatt-hour can be taken into account. The gear 35 is coupled to one sun gear 36 of a differential gear DI, the other sun gear 37 of which is driven by a constantly running synchronous motor 42 through gears 38 to 41. The planet gears which orbit about sun gears 36 and 3'7 are mounted on a planet carrier which is in the form of a bevel gear 43. As is characteristic of a differential gear system rotation of the planet carrier is proportional to the sum of the sun gear rotations. Bevel gear 43 drives one sun gear 48 of a second differential gear D2 through a bevel gear 44, a shaft 45 and a pair of bevel gears 46, 47.
The output of differential D2 drives a shaft 68 via gears 66 and 67. Shaft 68 drives a counter 71 through pinion 69 and gear 70.
On the shaft 68 there is also seated a pinion 72 meshing with a gear 73. The latter is connected to a cam shaft 75 through a friction coupling 74. The cam shaft 75 carries three cams 76, 77 and 78, which operate single pole double throw switches 79, 8t) and 81 respectively. A lever 83 which is mounted for rotation about the point 82 is urged by a spring 84 against the cam 76. In the circuit of the switches 79-81 there is also a switch 85, which is operated by the synchronous motor 49 through a reduction gear 36 (indicated only diagrammatically) in a manner which will be described later. The switches 79 to 81 control the issuance of the respective bill in accordance with the degree of rotation of cam shaft 75 which it will be remembered is controlled in turn by the output of the consumption meter.
The multiple card container KB comprises four identical separate containers I-IV, each having an electromagnetically actuated card issuing mechanism, as described below with reference to FIGURE 4. Here the mechanisms are indicated only diagrammatically; they comprise coils 87-90, forks 91-34- actuated thereby and switches 95-98. It will be seen from FIGURE 4 that the coils 87-90 in fact each comprise two coils, e.g., 87a and 87!). Each of the four switches 95-98 corresponds to two contacts 99 and 100 in FIGURE 4.
Means for resetting the cam shaft 75 and counter 71 are also provided, a side elevation being shown in the middle of FIGURE 3 and a partial front elevation being shown in the lower portion of FIGURE 3. Accordingly, there is a synchronous motor 49, permanently connected to a voltage source 50 which drives a gear 54 through gears 51, 52 and 53. Mounted on the gear 54 is a pivotable ratchet lever 55 which, subject to the pull of the spring 56, can be tipped across a dead-center position into either of two positions defined by two stops 57 and 58 (see elevation at bottom left). The left-hand side of the ratchet lever 55 carries a ratchet tooth 59 and the righthand side a sliding surface 60.
The gear 54 is mounted for loose rotation on a shaft 61, whereas a pinion 62 and aratchet wheel 63 are rigidly mounted on the shaft 61. The pinion 62 is coupled through a gear 64 t the left-hand sun gear 65 of the second diiferential gear D2 which drives the counter 71 and cam shaft 75 as noted above.
As seen in FIGURE 3, pins 102 to 105 are arranged at the periphery of the gear 54 and mounted on a stationary member 101 so that they can be advanced or extended selectively. If one of the pins is advanced, so that the left arm of the ratchet lever 55 strikes it, the lever 55 is tilted out of the position shown into a position where the tooth 59 engages in the ratchet wheel 63 and thus couples it to the gear 54. Accordingly, gear 54 rotates and eventually the sliding surface 60 of the ratchet lever 55 strikes a decoupling pin 106, thus tilting the lever 55 back into the position shown. At the same time the decoupling pin 106 temporarily closes the contact 107 coupled thereto.
As indicated by the dash-and-dot lines, the coupling pins 102-105 are coupled to the forks 91-94 of the card issuing mechanisms I-IV .in such a way that, as soon as the preliminary release of a card takes place, the coupling pin associated with that card issuing mechanism is advanced. The result is that, at the point on the periphery of gear 54 where the advanced pin is located, the ratchet lever 55 tips over into the coupling position, where it remains until upon further rotation its sliding surface strikes against the decoupling pin 106. When this occurs, ratchet lever 55 is returned to its resting position as shown in FIGURE 3 to thereby disengage gear 54 from ratchet wheel 63. At the same time contacts 107 are closed to send a signal to that one of the card issuing mechanisms associated with the advanced pin to thereby cause the associated fork (one of the forks 91-94) to return to its initial position and retract the advanced pin. Thus the angular distance between the advanced one of the coupling pins 102-105 and the decoupling pin 106 determines the angle of rotation through which the ratchet wheel 63 is carried along by the gear 54.
The coupling pins 102-105 are positioned at the periphery of the gear 54 so that the angle of rotation of the ratchet wheel 63, determined by the particular coupling pin which is advanced, corresponds to the value of the concurrently dispensed invoice. It will easily be seen from the arrows in the drawing that the effect of the ratchet wheel 63 being carried along the gear 54 is to transfer to the cam shaft 75, through the second differential gear D2, a rotary movement in the opposite direction to that emanating from rotation of the shaft 25.
If the left hand sun gears 37 and 65 of the two differential gears D1, D2 are thought of as being stationary, then the rotation of the cam shaft 75 corresponds to that of the wheel 24, which in turn is related to the consumption of electricity. The counter 71 rotates correspondingly and indicates the accumulated total at any given moment. The locations of the dwells on cams 76, 77 and 78 are related to the values of the invoice cards dispensed by mechanisms II, III and IV. If the cams are in the position shown with switches 79, 80 and 81 in the lower switching position when the switch 85 is closed, a card from dispenser I is released for issue. If consumption has increased so much that the cam 76 transfers the switch 79 from the on position a card from dispenser II is released when switch is closed. If, finally, the movable contact of the switch 81 has also dropped over the rear edge of the cam 78, then when the switch 85 is closed a card of the highest value is released from dispenser IV. Thus even if nothing has been consumed a card of the lowest value is released.
Each time a card is released through actuation of one of the forks 91-94, the advancing of the associated coupling pin of the group 102-105 causes the racthet wheel 63 to be carried along by the gear 54 through an angle of rotation corresponding to the value of the released card and thus, through the second differential gear D2, causes both the cam shaft 75 and the counter 71 to be set back the amount of the value of the issued invoice. It is consequently always possible to read from the counter 71 the residual amount not represented by the bill, i.e., the difference between total consumption and the consumption represented by the issued card. Thus, if total consumption is seven kw.-hr. and the issued card represents a bill for five kw.-hr., then the counter and cam shaft are reset to the residuum, i.e., two kw.-hr.
When the return movement has been completed the ratchet lever 55 closes the contact 107 by abutting the pin 106, whereby the release of the preselected card is finally completed.
From the synchronous motor 42 through the first differential gear D1, an additional constant rotary speed is superimposed on the cam shaft 75. This rotary movement enables a basic charge or meter rent proportional merely to time to be included in the charge. However, the motor 42 and associated gearing may be omitted. In this case, the gear acts directly on shaft 45 as indicated by an arrow in FIG. 3.
Should consumption in one reading period unexpectedly be so high that the cams 76-78 would make more than one complete revolution, the lever 83, which then strikes against the front edge of the surface of the cam 76, prevents the cam shaft 75 from turning any further after completing one revolution. The cam shaft 75 is thus held in a position where only cards of the highest value are ejected. Owing to the friction coupling 74, however, the counter 71 is not prevented from further turning, so the consumption can still be read therefrom. In this case the cam shaft 75 must afterwards he repositioned by hand to conform to the counter.
FIGURE 4 illustrates an exemplary electromagnetic card ejector, there being one provided for each card group. The coils 87a and 87b correspond to one of the coils 87-90 in the simplified view shown in FIGURE 3; the fork 91 corresponds to one of the forks 91-94.
In the energized condition the two coils 87a and 87b draw a thrust rod 108 in the direction of the arrows shown adjacent the coils. The two end positions of the thrust rod 108 are defined by grooves 109 and a detent 110. Control is effected through contacts 99 and 100, each having one contact spring which is connected to or engageable by the thrust rod 108. The fork 91, which can pivot about a shaft 111, is coupled to the thrust rod 108 and carries two olfset abutments 112 and 113 at its upper end. The offset abutments alternately engage prongs of a star wheel 114 on a shaft 115 to thereby permit the star wheel to rotate as thrust rod 108 reciprocates. A pinion 118 and a winding knob 119 are fixed to the shaft 115. A compression spring 120, supported against a bearing 121, presses the shaft 115 constantly to the left against an abutment (not shown). Mounted on a shaft 122 are a gear 123, meshing with the pinion 118, and a drum 124. A steel band 125 is wound on the latter and held in the slot 126.
The steel band 125 runs across rollers 127 and 128 and is constantly held under tension at one end by two springs 129. The steel band 125 is reduced in width so as to form a dropping edge 130. Cards 131, which are arranged at equal intervals in a magazine (not shown), are suspended from the prolongation of the steel band 125 on edges 132 formed by lateral recesses.
An impulse emanating from the contact 85 (FIGURE 3) .is fed via the contact 99 to the coil 87a, whereby the coil draws the thrust rod 108 to the left. At the same time the contact 99 is opened and the contact 100 closed. This movement pivots the fork 91 to the left, and the abutment 112 releases the prong 116, the latter thus sliding into engagement with the abutment 113. At this stage the dropping edge 130 of the steel band 125 makes only a small movement in the direction of the arrow, which is not yet sufficient to release a card 131.
If an impulse from the contact 107 follows (FIGURE 3), it is fed through the contact 100 to the coil 87b, and the latter draws the thrust rod 108 back to the right. The star-wheel prong 116 slides off the abutment lug 113, and the star-wheel 114 turns under the action of the springs 129 until its prong 117 strikes the abutment 112. At this movement the dropping edge 130 of the steel band 125 executes such a large displacement that it moves behind the suspension edge 132 of the foremost card and lets the card drop.
The steel band 125 may be rewound by simultaneously pressing and turning the winding knob 119 until a pin 133 strikes a fixed abutment 134. The pressing of the winding knob 119 moves the star wheel 114 backwards, so that its prongs 116, 117 are released from the abutments 112 and 113 whereby it can be turned freely. When the pin 133 engages the abutment 134, the steel band 125 is so far wound up that its dropping edge 130 also covers the foremost card compartment in the magazine and all the cards 131 contained in the completely filled magazine hang from the prolongation of the band.

Genesee Hill's walking school buses are a great way to get to school next year! A walking school bus is simply a group of students who walk to school under the supervision of one or more adults. Adults work together to form teams and take turns walking children in their area to school. This program encourages physical activity, helps students practice safe pedestrian skills, and gives students a chance to socialize before school begins each day.
We are working to recruit teams of adults to become bus "drivers" next year. "Driving" a bus would entail a commitment to becoming a screened volunteer (using the same process volunteers currently use) and walking a group of 4-6 students to school at least one day per week. If you are interested please send your name and cross streets to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Join us at our planning meeting on Monday, June 13 at 7PM at the Windermere Real Estate Offices in the junction. Be on the look out for members of the transportation committee before and after school in the coming weeks to answer any additional questions you may have about the walking school bus program!
We are excited to welcome the new board for our Genesee Hill School! A big thank you to our outgoing board members: president- Robert Kelly, legislative-Emily Giaquinta, communications-Cheri Carl and fundraising- Lorie Bennett for all the work they did on our PTA board this past year. It was a crazy ride with the teacher strike, teacher cuts, fully funding k-8 at the state level, bell times, after school care, moving schools and meeting our fundraising goals. This all takes initiative, collaboration, leadership and so much more. Thank you!! Look for your new PTA board members at cohort play dates this August as well as our opening ceremony at the new school.

CHILD CARE CRISIS UPDATE: Leslie Harris – On the Case -NEXT: EMAIL CITY COUNCIL & MAYOR
We received an email from SPS Board Representative Leslie Harris on Friday, May 20 in response to our appeals earlier last week for the School District to work with the City and Mayor to develop a solution for our after-school care crisis here at Schmitz Park. We're asking for equitable access to childcare, access that other schools have currently that Schmitz Park families have had eroded over the last few years due to removing busing, expanding boundaries and bell time changes for next year. Read her full email response: Email from Leslie Harris. And the follow up from our Legislative Chair: Response from Legislative Chair
It is clear that the School District's primary responsibility is the education of our children. However, it is also clear, that because of policy changes unique to Schmitz Park School, that it is essential we create a long-term solution involving the use of community facilities and busing to insure that our parents have piece of mind – and – our kids are cared for after their school day is over in a reliable, nurturing way. We are all ready and willing to pay, but need the City to step in as a partner to help provide a location and access, or a waiver for the use of our new school facility.
CALL TO ACTION: Email our City Council representative Lisa Herbold and our Mayor, Ed Murray – ask them to work on a swift, reliable and flexible solution to our after school care needs. Whether your child is impacted or not, this is an issue that effects the entire Schmitz Park Community. For data and content to craft your message, read background information from original post below. Send your messages TODAY!
The Schmitz Park PTA has sent a request for meeting and proposed solutions to both Lisa Herbold of the Seattle City Council and Leslie Harris, our representative on the Seattle School Board to address the crisis facing parents for after school care next year. Over 65 parents signed this letter on behalf of Schmitz Park families, and we encourage EVERY PARENT whether affected by the lack of after school care options or not, to email both representatives – compelling them to develop a solution to meet our care needs in West Seattle. For a full history of events leading up to our current predicament, read the full letter below, sent on behalf of parents by Legislative Co-Chairs Emily Giaquinta and Angela Cough.

Dear School Board Director Leslie Harris and Councilmember Lisa Herbold,
On behalf of concerned parents at Schmitz Park-Genesee Hill Elementary, we write this letter asking for help to address a growing crisis for our families. Schmitz Park-Genesee Hill Elementary is the largest elementary school in the District with 642 students enrolled for the 2015-2016 academic year. Our student population grows faster than the District's increased enrollment figures resulting in the addition of 300 new seats since 2008. With our facility burdened by over enrollment, and portable count at the maximum allowed by City land use permits, we were given the gift of a new 650 seat school built on the nearby Genesee Hill campus. Our teachers, staff and students will move into the new building for the 2016-2017 school year.
Schmitz Park-Genesee Hill also is the only Madison/West Seattle High attendance area school that utilizes its own facility for Seattle Park & Recreation's Hiawatha After School Care Program. We do not have a community center or public facility at our disposal within our school zone. For several years, our current building could not host a program large enough to fill the needs for the Hiawatha After Care Program because of square foot limitation. In July 2014, SPS eliminated bussing to other local community centers with available off site child care which added to the number of working parents at a loss for wrap around child care. Our PTA petitioned SPS to reinstate bussing to off site child care due to our facility limitations. They answered no.
The Schmitz Park-Genesee Hill community is eager to leave capacity restrictions behind us with the move into our new 90,000 square foot building. Unfortunately, that will not be the case. Preliminary enrollment figures have our student population reaching 700 students next year, including projections for 6 kindergarten classes. This results in multi-purpose classrooms, or "flex-areas", designed and constructed for varied curriculum must be used for homeroom classes. The ripple effect of using those use flex-areas for classrooms means Hiawatha's After Care Program will actually be reduced instead of expanded next year. Hiawatha currently offers after school care for approximately 100 students and there is a current wait list of 56. Next year, the program will only offer 60 slots and those were all filled this week by lottery to families already in the program receiving priority placement. 35 families losing their places in the program are now top of the wait list. Hiawatha hosted open enrollment to new families needing after school care yet none were placed including families with additional children entering school. These new families will be placed on the wait list starting at #36. Hiawatha cannot offer slots if their license is limited due to lack of facilities. If Schmitz Park-Genesee Hill enrolls 700 students, classroom space will be allocated for school use and not available for After Care slots. Our PTA petitioned SPS in 2014 to delay expanding our reference area boundaries because enrollment projections were exceeding the number of seats of the new building. They answered no.
Next year will bring a new Bell Time Schedule with Schmitz Park-Genesee Hill Elementary being dismissed at 2:05pm. Madison Middle School and West Seattle High are dismissed at 3:15pm. These bell time changes will prevent families from relying on older siblings or students for after school care. The new Bell Schedule makes the need for Hiawatha After Care even MORE dire as parents scramble to make up for the additional hour of after-school care required to accommodate this change. Yet, Instead of growing the After Care program to meet the increase in demand, it is being reduced. Our PTA petitioned SPS in 2015 to keep our Bell Schedule in Tier 2 to help mitigate the loss of older sibling or student provided after care knowing Hiawatha already could not meet the needs of our families. They answered no.
We now make our plea to you, our elected leaders, to act on our behalf. There are two possible solutions to address this problem:
1. Use the Schmitz Park Elementary building as a community facility allowing Hiawatha to operate an additional before and after school care program. There is no public plan for this building and it will be sitting vacant. The demand supports the ongoing use of this facility for a school or school care program.
2. Review the City Child Care license policy and allow Hiawatha to use common spaces for child care operations. At present, the new gymnasium, lunchroom, nor library can be used as After School Care spaces. 90,000 square feet of building yet Hiawatha is told only 60 children can join the program.
We know this will require pulling District and City resources together to solve this problem jointly for families and ensure that working parents have the security of knowing immediately that child care is in place when we return to school in September. The parents signing this letter below are here to ensure that meeting occurs and occurs soon. We have pursued all other avenues towards containing this crisis and now need a team effort. Please contact myself or Angela Cough, Schmitz Park-Genesee Hill Elementary PTA Legislative Co-Chairs if we can provide any further perspective or to set up a time to meet. We thank you in advance for your attention to this matter.
Kind Regards,
Emily Giaquinta & Angela Cough

Pizza Shop Mania
What parents need to know
Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Pizza Shop Mania is a well-designed time management game that allows you to create pizzas and pasta to serve your customers. As you progress, you'll unlock items to help you earn more money and save your shop from the bankers who are trying to take it away. The game has 48 levels, as well as a match-three mini-game.
User reviews
Parents say
Kids say
Is it any good?
PIZZA SHOP MANIA is a solid time management game that provides plenty of value for the price. The controls work well, even on the small screen of mobile devices. As with its full-size game console cousins, you'll need to put together combos and pay close attention to the personalities of each different customer in order to get the best scores, but you can easily progress with slightly less skill. Game levels can also be replayed in order to get the highest scores. The graphics are relatively detailed and the music score is nice, leaving you with the impression of a polished game. Pizza Shop Mania isn't groundbreaking, but it is a quality choice.

I'm not lookin for the exact code, I would just like to know what I need to lookup for this. I know a little JS and I am making a photo website in PHP. The photos will have a link on them similar to:
Now, I know a bit of PHP concerning $_GET variables, but not multiple "get"'s. Are both of the variable names "image" and "orientation" (in this case) accessible by $_GET[]?Code:<img src= ....
Once I figure that out, I would like to make a function in javascript that will open a new window, with the image inside and a description. I would like to have it open a window sized based on the orientation variable in the URL. Is it possible to have the window opened and sized based on the orientation?
For example, lets say the image link is
The image is called "sunset" and it is a horizontal image. From there, have a javascript function open a window for a horizontal orientation e.g. 500x230. From there, have PHP fill the page with the appropriate info.Code:
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not that concerned about underperforming as the stock outperformed for a very long time.I just didn't like yesterday's after hours action and while it may just have been a fluke, you have to be really desparate to sell as love as someone did after the market closed. I don't trust analysts and that kind of crap makes me suspicious.We held 15.30. Lets see what tomorrow brings.
I agree : I don't trust analysts either. They even say anything without proof.We will see better in the coming days.

....trying something new. I would simply like to meet new people. I work long hours, 24 hours at a time. I like the idea of meeting someone that I would perhaps not otherwise meet! However, I consider myself a little bit "old school". I like meeting people face to face. I don't think one can really get to know someone through email. There is just so much that is missing. The internet is a great place to start, but please include more than one photo.
I love motorcycles, martial arts, and the outdoors. I live in the city due to my job, but i look forward to moving out of town again someday. Family is very important to me. My mother and brother live 200 miles from Chicago. My brother has a boat. I'm hoping to spend a lot of time with him this year.
I'm a little unsure about online dating, so say hi! We can start off as friends and see where it goes! I think it is very hard to learn what someone is really like over a computer. I look forward to hearing from you.

Lake Forrest Preparatory School was established in 1991 to provide the choice of an Orlando private school community to a broader population; to create a community school where each child is safe and well-educated. Here each parent is invited to partner in the education of their children, and each child receives the chance to achieve his or her greatest potential.
We believe that character building begins at a very young age. Character is what helps children become strong leaders. At Lake Forrest Prep all of our teachers, including those in preschool, participate in our character building curriculum. We understand that a child's character is just as important as his or her academic performance. We recognize the importance of instilling good character traits in children at a young age and fostering it through the elementary and middle school years. As students leave Lake Forrest, not only do they have a solid academic foundation, but they also have strong values and character. Each month Lake Forrest Prep focuses on a different character trait including caring, respect, cooperation, trustworthiness, compassion, tolerance, citizenship, responsibility, and self-control.
The professionals at our Orlando private school understand that students perform better in school when a genuine relationship is shared between teachers, parents, and the administration. We have an open door policy here. You are welcome to share your ideas and thoughts with us or visit your child's classroom at any time.
Experience the difference at Lake Forrest Preparatory School!

Korea meets London. Juhee Han, a newly graduate from the legendary fashion house Central Saint Martins, Han is a knitwear designer. She graduated from BA Fashion Design and Knitwear in 2011 and her graduation show, I must say is quite interesting. Her collection is knitwear combined with fur and metal accessories in bright colours; oranges, purple and tones of beige.
These carry a lot from the current trends with volumes as a reminder of the Stella McCartney, colours from Hermès, full faux fur dress from Giles. The cage like accessories are used both as belts and shirt tops, placing birds over your shoulder! The metallic belts help accompany the look to an A+ catwalk styling overall. The bird like features of the big orange knit cape/jacket the longer silhouette the cages, the metal belts around the waist all point out to the same story: being free. Birds have broken out of their cages but still remains in the whereabouts of the crime scene.
It is almost as if Juhee Han herself is breaking through her shell.

My fiance and I were looking for our wedding bands and ran across this one for him. While it looks good online and was the same style, shape, and width that he wanted, we were highly disappointed with what we received. The ring we got did have the high gloss finish on the inside of the ring and on the edges. The issue, however, was the satin "pattern" in the middle. In the photo the satin band appears to be textured and almost fine etching like. Seemingly as if you rubbed your finger against it you would be able to feel the grooves. Unfortunately the middle part on the ring we received took on more of a frosted flat look. It was not even shiny like it appears in the photos, and the middle part looked more like it was PAINTED on! I say "painted" because upon close inspection the edge work where the middle band meets the glossy edges, is not even lined neatly. It even kind of looked smudgy. I'm all about taking all internet based photos with a grain of salt since there is different lighting and angle situations. However I never had an issue where something I bought online looked fairly disproportionate to what it truly looked like. Especially not from Overstock! I wish there was a way to upload photos in review since i took photos of the ring in a variety of angles and light and wish to share. I did that to make sure I wasn't losing my mind--I wasn't and I'm not--the ring was just unsatisfactory. Perhaps it was just my bad luck
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? These looked like two different products
- How accurate was the sizing? Sizing was accurate
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. The ring had a good weight. Quality looked bad.
As described, was sized easily by my jeweler and even had it inscribed.

The hotel bathroom was filthy and mold was growing everywhere. The indoor pool was right outside the door to the room, and the humidity level from the pool was high. Kids playing in the pool until late. Not a good choice for a hotel, even at this price

It is a bare bones room: There was no microwave, or refrigerator. Thankfully, we didn't need them.

Easy to find
Staff was rude. Smelled. Beds need to be updated. And the breakfast is basically one kind of cereal and some prepackaged sticky buns.
Very old. Needs updated. Beds and pillows were pretty bad.

Nice rooms, large indoor swimming pool. First hotel I have been in that had a pool table. That's what we were in the area for. Would stay hear again.
continental breakfast was not much. other than that, no complaints. But the manager did direct us to a great restaurant that served breakfast.
good access on the main drag. Friendly and clean at a good price for the area.

I have been asked to update the "team" page of a flash website. I had to replace a picture of 4 people with a picture of 5, and when you roll over a person's face their "profile info" pops up. These profiles have a "close" button to go back to just the team photo. The problem is, when you click on any of the close buttons Steve's profile box opens automatically. It shouldn't open until you roll over the picture of Steve's face.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can post a link to the site if it helps.

In recent years, underwater acoustic wireless sensor networks have been used in many areas. There have been many field trials of acoustic propagation models and statistics for shallow water conditions. However, field trials are limited environmentally and, hence, not widely accepted. Simulations of the impulse response of a shallow underwater acoustic channel allows less expensive system tests that are reproducable. This paper presents a shallow water acoustic channel model based on the actual acoustic propagation characteristics with path attenuation, ambient noise, multiple paths, and Doppler effects. The second-order statistical characteristics of the simulation model are verified with the autocorrelations and crosscorrelations of the quadrature components and the complex envelopes of channel impulse responses. The channel model is implemented in Matlab with the results showing that the absorption coefficient and path losses are both dependent on the frequencies and propagation distances and that the path gain can be improved with Light of Sight (LOS) and short range acoustic propagation. Analysis of the channel impulse response and the frequency response that the zero-order Bessel function of first kind can be used to describe the correlation functions for the impulse response. The shallow underwater acoustic channel is time-varying and can not be modeled as a wide-sense stationary-uncorrelated scattering channel.
