- You can use our clay slab roller - just like the pros!
- Or perhaps you want to make perfect coils with our extruder and use a rib to smooth it out, and then emboss or deboss a pattern on your art
- Use our leaf with veins to create a perfect dish!
- Extrude some long flat pieces of clay and weave them over a bowl as you might a straw basket.
We will help you find a technique to build your masterpieces by showing you some of our first rate ceramics tools and how to use them.
We will then place your piece in our drying area, and let it dry until its ready to be fired, at which time we will put it in the kiln and fire it until it turns from greenware to bisque. And, about a week later, you can come back and paint it! It will then be glazed and fired to perfection again.

We combine many art materials to make something special. This is an area that will grow... we are working on some ideas to create unique light fixtures, but it takes time to translate ideas into materials and practical successful art. smARTy! will continue to develop new products. These are fun ideas that will take us forward and provide new opportunities for you when you return.
This is a favorite. The copper has its own mind and you will find yourself with a colorful and beautiful piece. It cries out to you to cut, bend, or add a piece of wire. Even if you think you have a plan in mind, the copper will sometimes surprise you with unexpected beauty and change your mind. Whichever way you go, you can't make a mistake. We also have thousands of beads in shapes of all sizes to be attached, or you can wrap colorful wire around...no wire wrap experience necessary!
You can paint a penguin to look like a penguin, and we have quite a selection from animals to fun monsters, creative vases, cups and plates... But what if you want to do something that seems too difficult?
If you choose bisque, you can select one of nearly 200 designs. We can help you make a beautiful piece - tools are half the battle..
sponges create a great effect on bisque.
screen printing for a perfect design.
stamps placed carefully or at random on bisque.

Reviews for Budget in Long Beach
- All reviews 100%
Recent reviews

4.8 Okay
Jan 5 2017
Pros: The person who checked us back in at drop-off was incredibly kind and friendly. Drop off was easy. I love how close the cars are to the airport when you have 4 people, 2 carseats, and a bunch of stuff.
Cons: Car was very grubby and smelled funny on pickup. I recognize it was the holidays and they were moving a high volume of cars but there were flecks of food all around the front of the vehicle. Kia Soul was my only option without upgrading (despite the booking indicating a sedan was the likely car) and there was essentially NO trunk for 4 people's luggage.
6.0 Okay
Jan 3 2017
It's Budget! Don't expect much
Pros: I liked this location is open late. Saves me a trip to LAX when I rent a car and have to return late at night.
Cons: It's a small lot shared by multiple car rental companies. Poorly lit, there was no lot attendant present when I arrived. I wrote down all the information and took into the main building. I've come to expect this from Budget. Just a heads for someone that might be renting from them for the first time.
9.2 Excellent
Dec 1 2016
other airports have cheaper cars
Pros: employees are always so nice Lines are short airport is most convenient to the rental place. You only have to walk across street.
Cons: Cost of rental is more than other airports.
6.4 Good
Nov 26 2016
Pros: I liked that they were located at the terminal.
Cons: I did not like how the price increased $20 at the time of check out. The price quoted when I booked the reservation said "total", meaning it should have included all of the ridiculous little fees.

As much as we'd like everyone to be judged solely on the quality of their leadership, external factors such as appearance really do matter.
While our bodies don't need to be 'catwalk ready', a study has suggested that leaders must appear fit and of a healthy BMI in order to prove to others that they have what it takes to do the job competent.
Research by the US-based Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) revealed many people perceive that overweight executives are less effective at interpersonal relationships in the office, have poorer job performance, and less leadership ability.
A subsequent article in The Wall Street Journal cited experts who claim "staying trim is now virtually required for anyone on track for the corner office". Employees and clients hold negative stereotypes about the overweight, they say, and many believe that a lack of health or stamina will negatively impact performance.
While it is firmly recognised that fitness doesn't directly impact managerial ability, and a slightly to moderately overweight person's physical state isn't likely to hurt job performance, this is an issue that may have longer-term effects.
"Because the demands of leadership can be quite strenuous, the physical aspects are just as important as everything else," Sharon McDowell-Larsen, an exercise physiologist at CCL said. According to the data, pudgy executives tend to be perceived as less effective in the workplace, both in performance and interpersonal relationships.
Leadership experts have echoed their agreement on this issue.
Barry Posner, a leadership professor at Santa Clara University's Leavey School of Business, said that a heavy executive is judged to be less capable because of assumptions about how weight affects health and stamina. He added that he can't name a single overweight Fortune 500 CEO. "We have stereotypes about fat, so when we see a senior executive who's overweight, our initial reaction isn't positive," he was quoted.
Also, the CEOs of today are in a much more visible position where they must always be media-ready at all times, while appearing poised and ready to take charge when the going gets tough. Extra pounds can convey weakness or a "lack of control", according to Amanda Sanders, a New York-based image consultant who has worked with senior executives at Fortune 500 firms.
Now, that's some food for thought.

While all of these observations may have some truth to them, what of the risks related to a claim of discrimination based on excess weight (potentially to be argued as related to a health condition)if a fit person is hired over an overweight person who is otherwise as or more qualified?
Ageism, racism and now weightism... All Human Rights issues. We all all aware of the "wrongness" when people, of physical disabilities are passed over for positions they are ample qualified. Through education and media attention to the fact a wheelchair does preclude you from doing a job has changed perceptions perhaps the same must be done for weightism.10 years ago, smokers were attacked and ostracized, are over weight people the new targets for this generation? Is it more important to be a movie star or to have the brains and ethics to run a company? Both Bernie Madoff and Colin Black looked great in pictures but they damaged so many. As we all know, the cover doesn't tell you the story in the book.
Weight is not the only appearance issue. I've read in several articles that women with curly hair are seen as unprofessional and are less likely to be advanced up the corporate ladder. This is backed up by the fact that a woman I know with curly hair was recently told that she should start wearing her hair straight if she wished to be considered for a promotion!
These publications influence some of those who read them. This type of article clearly is about appearance, in an appearance driven time. Heaven forbid that the person with the ability to lead is allowed to lead.
This may sound cruel, but unlike people living in poverty, a CEO can afford to eat healthy and exercise. So unless they have a VERY rare genetic condition that causes them to be overweight on a 2000 calorie a day diet, there isn't any excuse for being overweight if you are a one percenter. The fact is, you are the face of the organization and you should be well dressed and don't look like you eat a bucket of Kfried every night or consume a dozen beers.
As an overweight professional, I agree with the primary premise in this article. My biggest hurdle in life is with myself and directly correlates to self esteem and leadership ability. I know I am good at my job and a highly capable as a leader. I also know that if I could control eating and show resolve with physical fitness, I would be significantly stronger, both emotionally and physically. I think individuals have to ask themselves a key question: Why am I overweight? If you are so consumed with work, that you have little time for exercise and proper food preparation, you may be a highly qualified leader. If you are overweight because the TV, computer, tavern or other distraction is more important to you than health or work, odds are you will improve at work when you make better personal choices.

A unique set of material including medals and flying logbooks of Wing Commander Karun Krishna 'Jumbo' Majumdar – widely recognised as the father of Indian Air Force – remained unsold at an auction held here on Wednesday.
The material included Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC) and Indian General Service Pair awarded to him by the British government in the 1940s before India's independence. He was killed on 17 February 1945 when his Hurricane stalled and crashed during an air show in Lyalpur.
Auctioneer Morton & Eden's spokesperson told HT on Thursday that the reserve price for the Majumdar material was 20,000 to 30,000 pounds, but the highest bid received was in the region of 16,000 pounds. He added that interest remained high and a sale was expected soon.
Air enthusiasts in India are reported to be keen to ensure that the unique material put up for auction by Majumdar's son is brought to India.
Majumdar was the first Indian officer to be decorated with a DFC. The material includes a diary that mentions details of air-raids conducted by him during the Second World War in Burma, as well as sound recordings of his February 1945 speech and a biographical film on him.
His speech emphasised the importance of airpower and looked at the future of the Indian Air Force. His vision for the air force provided a foundational framework for its future in an independent India.

Arrests along U.S. borders up in last year
WASHINGTON Border Patrol data show that agents made more than 356,000 apprehensions along the Mexican border in the budget year that ended in September.
Agents made about 29,000 more arrests last year than in fiscal 2011, when Border Patrol apprehensions were at the lowest levels since 1971. Agents in three Border Patrol sectors in South Texas saw the largest increases in arrests.
In the Rio Grande Valley, where agents made about 38,500 more arrests in the last year compared with 2011, apprehensions of illegal border crossers from countries other than Mexico outpaced those of Mexican nationals.

Make diversity a priority at the highest levels of management Strengthen documentation and enforcement of policies Increase the percentage of women in job applicant and interview pools –Advertise broadly defined positions; begin recruiting early; consider nontraditional career paths; diversify search committees Strengthen mentoring of early career scientists –Consider feedback from an early career committee –Develop a written mentoring plan and hold mentors accountable Educate scientists –On implicit bias and accumulation of disadvantage: use data-driven presentations –On meeting facilitation; management best practices; interviewing rules Schedule meetings that don't interfere with family time Develop policies for dual career couples –e.g., provide funds for spousal hires; split or share positions; creative recruiting and retention Appreciate and advocate for child care facilities Stop the tenure clock, stigma-free Nominate women for leadership positions and awards; invite them for technical seminars –Provide equitable recognition when they get awards Professional groups should certify institutions as "family friendly" or "gender equivalent" Toolkit – Crosscutting Workshop Recommendations 6
All workshops used quantitative pre- and post-workshop surveys and found immediate attitude changes. Chemistry chairs committed to two action items apiece at the end of the gender equity workshop. –42 of the 56 chairs have reported back in writing each year via secure website –Nearly four years have passed since the workshop, and the chairs still touch base University Materials Council is keeping gender equity on the front burner. –Chairs meet at regular intervals and actively work together –Chairs report in writing specific examples of how they are already implementing many of the recommendations –Have formed a committee to explore "family friendly" certification For the physics chairs, the American Physical Society is conducting follow-on site visits. Communities have followed up on their workshops. 7 Workshop evaluations performed by COACh http://www.uoregon.edu/~coach/http://www.uoregon.edu/~coach/

Management and Operating (M&O) contract –an agreement under which the Government contracts for the operation, maintenance, or support, on its behalf, of a Government-owned or -controlled research, development, special production, or testing establishment wholly or principally devoted to one or more major programs of the contracting Federal agency. (from the Federal Acquisition Regulation or FAR). –The FAR recognizes the special nature and need for M&O contracts. Under this statutory contracting model, DOE directs the subject matter areas in which the contractors are focused and the overall performance objectives to be accomplished. –However, the contractors are relied upon to apply best management, scientific, and business practices in carrying out that direction. DOE is the only Federal agency that uses M&O contracts. As of 2007, DOE's M&O contractors had about 100,000 employees compared to DOE's roughly 14,000. There are 17 DOE and NNSA national labs, each owned by the Government but operated by an M&O contractor. DOE national labs operate under M&O contracts. 10 Reference: DOE Acquisition Guide, Chapter 17.6 (October 2007), *Funding decisions are based on peer reviewed proposals.
The workshops, while they have included labs, have focused largely on the academic environment. While both universities and labs have scientific research cultures, the labs are structurally different. –Not organized into disciplinary units with department chairs. Groups, divisions, directorates, branches, etc…with various disciplines represented among 10s to 100s of scientists. There is no rank- and scope-equivalent chair with oversight for a scientific discipline. –Promotion and advancement processes do not necessarily or uniformly map onto academic tenure. No single model applies for all national laboratories. In recent years, a resource "toolkit" for gender equity has evolved for the academic community. –Tenure plays an important role. There is no analogous toolkit for labs. The labs are, in some ways, different. 11
Blocks to attractiveness of lab careers –No mentoring or career development –Lack of ability to handle dual-career couple issues –Inadequate attention to child care –No time and workplace flexibility –Lack of transparency (secrecy about how things work) –Unwelcoming environments –Funding Issues –Lack of mentoring ("Women tend to flounder their first couple years at the Lab") –It seems to take luck to fall into the "right" place early –Mentality that you don't grow, that you are what you were when hired –Difficulty of gaining individual recognition in a team environment –Managers' skills are poor or the wrong people become managers –Leaders not encouraging advancement of women and minorities –Negative perception of Laboratories, lack of understanding of science –Need for visible female role models and a critical mass –Maternity leave policies vary from one Lab to another –Restrictive policies regarding foreign nationals as staff, students, or postdocs –Can't maintain visibility when doing classified work The labs are, in some ways, the same. 12 New Directions: Women of Influence in the National Laboratories, UCRL-AR-210776, 2004 Framing the Model Workplace, UCRL-AR-150205, Tri-Laboratory Technical Women's Forum, 2002
BNL representatives attended chemistry and physics gender equity workshops. In 2007, they formed the BNL Family Friendly Policy Committee. The committee represents a cross-section of employees and reports to the lab director. Charge: To examine current BNL "family friendly" policies and develop recommendations for improvement. BNL already had existing family friendly policies: –adoption assistance, domestic partner benefits, scholarships for children of employees, flexible spending accounts for medical and dependent care, sick family member leave, on-site Child Development Center for babies and pre-schoolers, summer camp for employees' children up to 14, an annual summer camp exposition, housing assistance — and more. A few examples of policies proposed to the lab director: (*implemented so far) –Implement flexible work schedules* –Extend summer camp hours * –Enlarge the Child Development Center –Formulate a "Children at Work" policy –Provide additional paid leave after childbirth or adoption –Extend sick family member leave from 8 hours to 40 hours per year* –Extend further benefits for domestic partners* –Increase financial assistance for adopting a child* The Family Friendly Policy Committee is now a standing committee.

The Agency 15
Train reviewers and grantees on diversity issues. Modify peer review processes where necessary to ensure gender equity. Foster gender equity in highly visible Federal programs such as national labs, large research centers, and prestigious awards. Set clear guidelines for program managers on building diversity and ensure that these values are incorporated in the award process. Support workshops and other activities to promote diversity and to monitor progress on gender equity. Appoint women to review panels and advisory committees. Re-tool grants for people returning after a short absence. Fund additional post-docs to keep a lab active during family leave. Encourage universities to support family leave options for grad students. Ensure that childcare needs do not prevent attendance at professional meetings. Create programs that enable early-career women to establish research programs leading to tenure and involve them as reviewers. Collect data on gender and minority status in funding support. These data should be aggregated and made publicly available. The workshops yielded suggested agency action items. 16
Purpose: To support the development of individual research programs of outstanding scientists early in their careers and to stimulate research careers in the disciplines supported by the Office of Science. Principal investigators are within 10 years of receiving a Ph.D. and are either untenured academic assistant professors on the tenure track or full-time DOE national laboratory employees. About 65 awards expected in FY10 with $85M in Recovery Act funds. Future annual competitions will be supported through regular research appropriations. University grants are at least $150,000 per year for five years to cover summer salary and expenses; Lab awards are at least $500,000 per year for five years to cover full annual salary and expenses. Announcements posted 7/2/09; ~2200 Letters of intent arrived by 8/3/09; ~1750 full proposals arrived 9/1/09; Announcements expected by 2/1/09. Research will be competitively awarded based on peer review. Review and award management will take place in the six science programs. Eligibility criteria, review criteria, and program rules are common across the Office of Science. Frequently Asked Questions posted on http://www.science.doe.gov/sc-2/early_career.htm This is the inaugural year of the Early Career Research Program. 17
Portfolio Analysis and Management System: Core database with flexibility to add data manipulation modules Exchanges data with existing systems Allows direct data input from outside and inside DOE Proposal record –Electronic proposal from a lab or university –Correspondence –Reviews and review information –Documentation of decision –Post-award management documents –Various metadata People record –Information about reviewers and principal investigators –Contact information; optional demographics; keywords; proposal/review history We are working to obtain data. 18
A new study suggests a stronger role for Federal agencies. 19 http://www.scienceprogress.org/2009/11/women-and-sciences/ "Gender equity workshops, formalized policy statements about pipeline issues, and promises to support diversity in the science pipeline are important steps toward patching the leaks in the pipeline. Researchers at all levels will take notice if all federal granting agencies provide information, training, and materials on these issues. But they need to be followed up with tangible initiatives that actually promote diversity. Specifically, the agencies should actively model baseline family responsive policies and work toward a suite of additional offerings that help to support scholars with career-life issues throughout their academic career."

"This is an excellent collection for crochet beginners and those of us who have crocheted for years. For me in the early days I had to learn to slow down and count each stitch. This is a main problem for misaligned work. Also understanding what gauge is and being sure that the first stitches and rows match the patterns gauge instruction. Sometimes changing hook size solves a problem. How long have you been crocheting?"
"I've got to Pin this one! This is an adorable craft to make with children while they are home on school vacation this week. Crafting sessions are perfect for February vacation in the cold states of New England. Isn't it great to share special time with children or grandchildren? This is an excellent craft for daycare or the babysitter to share for entertainment."
"I actually thought the magnets were inside the material. It's excellent that they are attached underneath. I reaIly think this is a great idea. I would consider making one for my mother. She has vision problems so not only would this keep her straight pins in place but she'd be able to feel them if concentrating on a project. I'm thinking that a solid color would be a better idea for someone who is elderly and having problems seeing things. Do you agree?"
"The two strand Fold basket is a very clever pattern. Making this and keeping in your kitchen to use it for a catch all. This could be made in two colors and would so cute. The pattern dos not seem too complicate and probably would work up fast. This would make a great gift or use it for a basket on the back of the toilet. It is make with cotton yarn which is very easy to work with. I am definitely going to make this one up."
"The mop or sweeper cover is a great idea. They are so expensive to buy and these would work great. The cover is made with cotton yarn which is great for this purpose. The pattern is very simple to follow and should be able to be worked up in one sitting. I know I am going to make a couple of these for my mop. Great project."

How to Make 100 Paper Flowers
By Maria Noble
Gifted by Creative Publishing International
Reviewed by Melissa Conner, Editor of FaveCrafts.com
There are so many wonderful things about paper flowers. They're incredibly cheap to make, you can create several in a small amount of time, and they require absolutely no watering! Paper flowers are a great way to save money on weddings, centerpieces, and home decor...and with all the amazing patterns you'll find in How to Make 100 Paper Flowers, you're sure to find something to suit your style.
Broken down into 4 chapters (Pretty Imposters, Playful Posies, Origami Blossoms, and Quilled Florals), the patterns in this floral collection are sure to decieve almost everyone. In Pretty Imposters, author Maria Noble teaches readers how they can create fake flowers that could easily deceive anyone's careful eye. With their vibrant colors, delicate textures, and distinctive shapes, these everlasting florals are just as alluring as the real deal. The Country Rose was my favorite flower in this chapter. Made with crepe paper, this stunning floral could easily be used for weddings and centerpieces and look 100% real from even mere feet away.
The following chapter, Playful Posies, is jam packed with colorful and fun flowers that are great for spring and summer. Many of the flowers in this section are easy enough for kids to make, and most are made with paper you may have around your house already. For example, the Cupcake-Liner Daffodil is made with a few cupcake liners and some cute and colorful buttons. There are also newspaper flowers, magazine flowers, and even flowers you can make with napkins, maps, scrapbook paper, and old book pages.
Origami Blossoms also contains beautiful flowers that are easy enough for crafters of all ages to do. Turn napkins into tulips, newspaper into circle flowers, or create origami sunbursts with some leftover wrapping paper. And if you're feeling extra creative, you can try your hand at Quilled Florals, which are thin paper strips that are curled, coiled, and shaped into delicate flowers. The Quilled Hydrangea would look stunning on a scrapbook page or a card. While quilling does require some skill and patience, the results can be truly magical!
Filled with amazing flowers that lift spirits, beautify homes, and enrich celebrations, How to Make 100 Paper Flowers is a lovely book that will inspire you to find new and exciting ways to bring flowers into your life. Whether you're looking for ways to save money on a wedding or just simple things you can do to add color and style to your living room, you can acheive a look that's beautiful and believable with the patterns and tutorials in How to Make 100 Paper Flowers.

Recent studies have shown that sitting still for extended periods of time can create as many significant risks to your health as smoking cigarettes. When it comes to work place well-being, proper ergonomics should be a no-brainer. Working from an ergonomic workstation furniture and utilizing office accessories promotes proper posture for your entire body. Without any unneeded stress or strain, your mind can be free from the distraction of aches and pains. An ergonomic office lets you focus on what's really important and enjoy the work life of Lincoln Park, Chicago.

Let's Keep MovingA sedentary lifestyle can create health complications like decreased blood flow and poor circulation, as well as larger-scale issues like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity. Standing desks introduce the option of getting up and moving around without taking a break from you work. This creates opportunities to promote healthy circulation and pump nutrient-rich blood into muscles. Physical activity throughout the day engages the body's muscles and joints to ensure they don't atrophy. Alternating between sitting and standing positions at work with the stand-up desk can help maintain physical health and well-being while your brain is hard at work.
Keep it StraightSitting for extended periods of time introduces health concerns like spinal curvature and back, shoulder, and neck pain. Sitting on ergonomic office chairs can help you maintain proper alignment without leaving your desk. Proper ergonomics ensure that the body is in a neutral position while sitting, reducing any strain on the neck and back and decreasing poor posture-related aches and pains. Don't forget to complete your proper seated position with a selection from our variety of footrests.
Free your mind to focus on the task at hand and improve the efficiency of your work flow. Keyboard trays bring your work to you, reducing strain on your wrists and hands when you are spending hours typing.

"For Moynihan the only way to break the vicious circle in which the West finds itself is to 'redirect public spending' to the areas that best guarantee growth: education and infrastructure."
faro de vigo on jon MOYNIHAN's decline of the west
PA's chairman, Jon Moynihan, has had his views on the economic decline of the West discussed at length in the online version of Spanish newspaper Faro de Vigo.
The article introduces Jon's argument: "While our politicians are immersed in endless discussions about Greece leaving the Eurozone or about the benefits and drawbacks of mutualising the debts of countries accused of profligacy, they often lose sight of the bigger picture. The dangers of political short-sightedness have been alerted to us by Jon Moynihan in a lecture he gave at the London School of Economics with the Spenglerian title 'The Decline of the West.'"
The article explains: "The first explanation and the key to everything is the huge difference between the average daily wage of a worker in the OECD region and their counterpart in the urban areas of developing countries like China and India: 135 dollars vs. 12 dollars. In light of this, the fight against wage decline for low-qualified workers is lost before it has started.
"Transferable jobs will 'emigrate' to countries with ever lower salaries. This has already happened to entire industries such as steel production and consumer electronics; it is currently happening in car production; and tomorrow will be the turn of the aerospace industry.
"What is also happening is that developing countries no longer limit themselves to providing cheap and low-qualified workforces or goods with low market value. They invest smartly in education, research and high-tech, which will soon turn them, if it hasn't already, into our biggest competitors."
Discussing Jon's views on the outcome of this shift, the newspaper says: "The UK expert criticises the reaction of Western governments and especially the decision of then-president of the US Federal Reserve Alan Greenspan to 'flood the market with liquidity' because this policy of easy money has allowed governments, companies and families to become massively indebted in order to maintain their lifestyles.
"For Moynihan the only way to break the vicious circle in which the West finds itself is to 'redirect public spending' to the areas that best guarantee growth: education and infrastructure, from high-speed rail lines to the latest generation of telecommunications."
This article is based on the interview in Le Nouvel Observateur and a talk given at the LSE by Jon Moynihan. Click here for more information.

On the 20th October 2013, 19 children with visual impairments ran 4km in the Beijing Marathon, accompanied by over 100 volunteers. It is an amazing achievement for each child and it was great to see so many people support our kids!
Many of the runners who did the mini, half and full marathon crossed the finish line wearing a blindfold to raise awareness of visual impairment. In a culture where blind people are rarely seen in public, apart from begging, it was a wonderful opportunity for thousands of people to see children with visual impairments running.
One of the highlights was seeing so many men get involved. Over 3/4 of our kids in this age group are men, and they need good role models and mentors.
It was a great opportunity to share Bethel China's vision with the world: that children with visual impairments CAN live life to the fullest!
Thank you for supporting the kids as they ran in the marathon!

School Bus Driver Saves Student From Being Struck by Car
Randy Kronick of Connecticut prevents the 9-year-old girl from crossing the street as he sees a speeding SUV run his stop arm.
It's a case that refused to end quickly or quietly.
Throughout last year, we provided multiple updates on the conflict over the Rochester-Genesee (N.Y.) Regional Transportation Authority's (RGRTA) route service for local high school students.
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) ruled in January 2007 that RGRTA was providing illegal service for the local school district, displacing routes that had been operated by Laidlaw.
Later in the year, U.S. District Judge David Larimer upheld the FTA's ruling but, on two occasions, extended the deadline by which RGRTA was supposed to cease its school routes.
RGRTA proposed a new route system to serve the students, but FTA also deemed that a violation of the school bus regulations.
It seemed that RGRTA was down for the count and a victory for school bus contractors was at hand. But if you saw the News Alert in this issue, you may have been surprised to be reading another headline on the case: "Judge approves Rochester transit agency's new school service plan."
That's right — Larimer struck down the FTA's decision and cleared the way for the RGRTA to proceed with its proposal.
Unfair competition?
As you may know, the FTA's school bus regulations govern what federally subsidized transit agencies can and can't do in regard to providing pupil transportation, a practice sometimes known as tripper service. The goal is to prevent unfair competition with private school bus contractors.
"As a tax-paying entity, we do not want to see the taxes we pay being used against us in terms of competition," says Durham School Services' John Elliott in our 2008 Contractor Showcase.
That type of unfair competition, known as transit encroachment, doesn't appear to be rampant at this point. In our most recent national survey of school bus contractors (July 2007 issue, pg. 24), only 20 percent of respondents said that their companies had been a victim of transit encroachment.
However, as Carey Paster of First Student assesses in the Contractor Showcase, "I don't believe [transit encroachment] to be a widespread issue, but it is a severe issue in those areas that it is taking place."
High stakes
With that in mind, the Rochester-Genesee case is being watched closely by many contractors, and the National School Transportation Association (NSTA) is lending its support to the school bus side of the case.
The stakes are high, since the outcome in Rochester could have a significant impact on other cases of this type. In fact, NSTA noted that Larimer's latest decision could hinder the FTA's ability to enforce its own school bus regulations.
As Durham's John Elliott suggests, school bus contractors need to educate the school districts they deal with and the transit agencies that serve those areas about the FTA's regulations on tripper service.
One tool that can help in this effort is a brochure published by the FTA in 2005 called "Public Transportation and School Buses." It can be found online at www.fta.dot.gov/documents/SchoolBusBrochureJanuary19-2005.pdf.

The latest winning entry comes from second grader Ruby Boula of Temescal Valley Elementary School. The bus company awards her school $1,000 for classroom supplies.

One bill would require seat belts on school buses in Tennessee. Other proposals aim to raise the state's minimum age for school bus drivers and increase oversight of pupil transportation.
Brad Miller, who works for Durham School Services' Indianapolis location, and Ian Moulaison at Stock Transportation in Halifax, Nova Scotia, earn the certification.
In a new report, the state panel finds that "compartmentalized seating and other occupant restraint usage … generally have met the safety needs of Louisiana's school bus passengers."
As chief of the Department of Transportation, Chao's purview includes two agencies that regulate pupil transportation: NHTSA and FMCSA.
To become Blue Seal certified, at least 75% of technicians performing diagnosis and repairs at the location must be ASE certified.

Doug Martin is named president of TransPar, taking over for his father, Kyle Martin, a 35-year school transportation industry veteran.
Jan. 31 is the deadline for school transportation officials to apply for the third edition of the educational networking event.
In response to the state superintendent's plan to update South Carolina's aging school bus fleet, NSTA says that contracting could provide new buses while saving money.

Testimonials for RoseannaLeaton Hypnosis Mp3 Downloads
"My previous purchases, Winning, Putting and Short Game, have helped get me from a 14 handicap to an 8. My goal is 5 or less, so hopefully this latest download will get me there.
I've tried several other hypnosis programs, but yours are the most professionally done and very effective. I started seeing and feeling improvement in my game and emotions almost immediately.
Like you I love the game, probably to the point of obsession. I even love to practice, which I do almost daily. Not being one to do anything half way, every night I fall asleep listening with headphones and my player set to repeat, so I'm listening until I wake up. I call it my golf immersion program.
My best wishes for your continued success and I look forward to any new editions you produce."

"Hi Roseanna,
I have already bought your basic foundation CD, which is outstandingly professional. I am a little knowledgeable on NLP as I have used Tony Robbins material for many years.
I am wondering which way to proceed, should I be buying your products individually or going for the Mental Skills Toolkit as a package. You should know that I do intend to own every product you offer. "

This article provides information on Odin family products and leap seconds.
Leap seconds are a periodic one-second adjustment of Coordinated Universal Time(UTC) in order to keep a system's time of day close to the mean solar time. However, the Earth's rotation speed varies in response to climatic and geological events, and due to this, UTC leap seconds are irregularly spaced and unpredictable. This article seeks to provide information regarding the leap seconds themselves, along with addressing how Red Hat Enterprise Linux handles the insertion of one.
Upcoming Leap Second Events
The next leap second insertion is scheduled for June 30th, 2015 at 23:59:60 UTC.
To avoid any kind of issues please install all the OS updates.
Possible issues
As it is described in RedHat knowledge base the following issues can be faced:
Issue 1: Operating system can hang after insertion of leap second.
Restart server. Plese see related article in RedHat knowledge base: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/154713
Issue 2: Some heavy applications such as Java or Database servers can begin consuming a large amount of CPU.
This can be fixed by restarting the affected application. Plese see related article in RedHat knowledge base: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/154793
