Temperature is rising...
My husband and I argues a lot in regards with temperature of our kids.
When he feels our son is slightly warm he would tell me to check his temp. First, I will feel him (with my hand)
if he's warm and I guess it is a mother's instinct to tell if the temperature is considered a fever.
But my husband is being paranoid, checks our son using thermometer and if he sees the thermometer read 37 Celsius and above (97-99 F)
he will give Paracetamol.
Well, for me 36-37 degrees still okay but above 38 I consider it fever.
What is the temperature of a kid to be considered as fever? When is the time to give Paracetamol? When is the time to call the doctor?
Help here. Thanks.

Giving a fever reducing medication when it's not truly needed can do more harm than good. These medications put stress on the liver, and too much can actually cause liver damage. A small dose every now and then is probably not going to cause a problem (check with your doctor) but in general, if my child doesn't need it, I don't give it - their little livers already have enough to deal with from the toxins we ingest through our food, water and environment (touching plastic, breathing car exhaust, etc.).
I typically won't give my child a fever reducing medication if their fever is under 103ºF, and sometimes I'll let it go a bit higher than that.
If your child has had a febrile seizure (which typically doesn't happen before 6 months of age or after 5 years of age) then you'll probably want to talk to your doctor about when to give the fever reducing medication. In that case you may want to give it when the fever reaches 102ºF to avoid another febrile seizure, but in most cases, children (over the age of 1) can tolerate fever of 103ºF - 104ºF with no problem. I usually notice that my children get more agitated when the fever goes over 103º and at that point I'll give them a fever reducing medication just to help them relax and feel better so they can sleep.
The benefit of fever is that it's the body's natural mechanism for fighting off illness. When the fever rises (the body gets hotter) this kills off the pathogens (virus/bacteria, etc.). When all the pathogens are killed off, the fever goes away and the body temperature will return to normal.
A low grade fever (below 101ºF) rarely needs to be brought down by medication and studies have proven that when fever reducing medication is given, the illness can actually last longer because the body isn't given the chance to increase heat to a point where it can kill off the pathogens quickly.
Hope this helps and feel free to post back any questions this may bring to mind.
Warm regards,

I agree with Kate. All fever-reducing medications should be used sparingly. They are dangerous for the liver and largely unnecessary. A fever is a sign that the body is working and it works to kill of bacteria/viruses naturally while strengthening the immune system. We use medications very sparingly with our four little ones.

Hi to everybody.
Thank you for the advice and wonderful post. It is very helpful. As you can imagine, my husband is so paranoid (or should i say concerned) that even a slight fever we need to give him medication and now I have to talk to him and let him read this thread so he can be less paranoid and not think of fever as something he needs to be alarmed.
Every time we go to the doctor for our kids check-up or vaccine, I am the one inside and listens to the doctor for possible fever outbreak after the vaccine. Because if he is the one inside talking to the doctor, my husband would be like "giving the med right away as the doctor said because the kids will get fever."
Sometimes, there a vaccines that my kids would get fever but most of the time they don't and I don't give fever reducing medication unless they are uncomfortable especially at night.

Morning all,
I just have a small question. What is the best way to take your baby's temperature? Some people tell me to take it under the arm, in the ear even in the rectum. So what is the proper way to take a baby's temperature. I have also found mixing vinegar in with luke warm water and batheing baby in there till they start to shiver tends to break a low to moderate fever. If that helps anyone, just becareful not to get the water in baby's eyes.

Hi Bridge85,
For a baby under 1 year I understand the most accurate way to measure their temperature is with a digital thermometer in the ear or under the arm. Just make sure you don't measure it within 20 minutes of them having a bath as this will make the reading unreliable.
Best wishes,

If taking the temperature under the arm, you will want to add .6ºF to it, giving you a slightly warmer reading. I don't know what this works out to in a celcius reading because when I did a conversion it gave me a negative number -17.4C.
Doctors used to take a temperature rectally to get the most accurate reading, and I'd say this is probably still the most accurate way to take a temperature. But there are many good divices out there now that can take a fairly accurate reading under the arm or in the ear (only use a very special "ear reading" thermometer when taking a reading that way).
Usually, for a mild, low to moderate fever, you don't want to bring the fever down because the fever needs to do it's job, which is to kill of the pathogen that is causing it. In a high fever bringing the fever down with a bath can be helpful and make the child more comfortable. My Sister-In-Law used to start with a warm bath and then run the cold water in the bath water to bring the temp down. She said this helped her child to adjust to the temperature of the water without feeling like he was being put into cold water (even though it wasn't cold, but to a child with a fever, it can feel that way).

Hi! Thanks for all the post.
I do still use the traditional thermometer (Mercury) and for me it is still the best and gives accurate temp. But I do keep a digital thermometer just in case i feel unsure with the traditional I have a spare.
And giving bath to a baby with fever, i use warm water and sometimes i just give sponge bath.

By Peter G. Tamburro, Boomerang staff writer
Some of my fondest memories from my childhood are when my father first showed me how to hammer a nail and when "Grandpop" showed me how to make pineapples out of palm leaves. I also had good teachers that passed along some of their wisdom in addition to the assigned curriculum. Somewhere along my career, I realized a hallmark of a good supervisor is someone who teaches you how to just be better and sets you on the right track. Looking back, I realized I've had several mentors who had a hand in making me the person I am today.
The term "mentor" means many things to different people, but the Mentoring Center of Central Ohio defines a mentor as "a caring, unrelated adult or older youth who builds a relationship of trust and commitment with a younger, less experienced person." Dr. John V. Richardson, Jr., associate dean of UCLA's Graduate Division, says "Mentors are simply people who have the qualities of good role models." Professionally, a mentor is someone who shows others the ropes and helps them shape their career or interests.
Becoming a mentor is not difficult, but requires a time commitment to coach a less experienced individual. Many of us have many years of professional experience, so we have a lot to offer interns, new hires and even seasoned colleagues. Experts offer these suggestions for being a successful mentor:
Regardless of the setting (classroom, a sports team, or an organization like Big Brothers, Big Sisters), becoming a mentor can allow you to shape, influence and give positive direction to a younger person. By guiding others, you can help build their character and, in doing so, strengthen your community.

These may look like very minor services, but they are very great ones. They are highly effective. They are work that will be very useful, masha'Allah. I was alone when I came to the academy. "Drop all this activity" they used to tell me, may Allah forbid. "Mind your own business. Graduate. Get married. Take care of business and bring up your children. The State has its own Religious Affairs Department, they will do it for you. What business is it of yours?" they used to say. But look, my ideas have crosses the world, alhamdulillah (thanks be to Allah). Darwinism and materialism have been intellectually destroyed. That is fine. I am doing excellent work, alhamdulillah.

Doors drummer, John Densmore, says he learned a few things from Jay Z
Listen to The Doors on iHeartRadio | Listen to Jay Z on iHeartRadio
The Doors' John Densmore admits he used to be "a curmudgeon" when it came to hip-hop. The drummer tells HuffPost Live he didn't understand it, and was upset when Jay Z sampled The Doors' "Five To One" on his 2001 album "The Blueprint."
He adds his ranting against rap caught the rapper's attention and Jay Z personally schooled him on the genre. Densmore says Jay sent him a letter highlighting their common ground, explaining that hip-hop stars are "fighting the authority just like you guys did back then." John says Jay Z also gave him a Def Jam t-shirt -- which he kept.
Densmore has continued to follow the rapper over the past 12 years. He says for his book "The Doors: Unhinged" he wanted to use lines from Jay Z's book "Decoded" about money not necessarily leading to happiness.
John says in seeking permission he sent Jay Z a picture of him wearing the Def Jam shirt along with a letter asking for "some of these words." Jay Z agreed.

On Monday, two additional suspects were accused of plotting to kidnap and kill women and children—a librarian and a police chief.
He claimed his plans to kidnap and roast women was merely fantasy.
As a result, Bo sent several hundred armed police to surround the U.S. Consulate, attempting to kidnap Wang.
Mike travels to Mexico to kidnap Rafael, the 11-year-old son of Harold Polk.
Gilberto Valle, 28, of Queens, N.Y., was charged in a plot to kidnap and cook his girlfriend—and maybe as well as 100 other women.
Later in the night another attempt is made to enter your room and this morning there was an attempt to kidnap you.
He thought it was an outrage for Farmer Green to kidnap him like that.
We might try to kidnap him, and lock him up ourselves; but he is a well-known man here.
You mean to kidnap me and bear me off to that ogre's castle, whether or not?
Indignation at this command to kidnap made him publicly advise his neighbours to break the wicked law.

Kudos Chiefland City Commissioners.
Bet they never imagined they'd see that in this space, but it's certainly warranted after commissioners went to bat for one of the best programs in the city.
Commissioners voted unanimously to waive a $180 rental fee normally charged for use of the Tommy Usher Pineland Center for the College of Central Florida Levy Center to have its GED graduation.
We think that was a brilliant move and hope the commissioners will waive the fee every time there's a GED graduation until the CF Levy Center builds its campus.

Hello,,,, :) :)
SYSTEM: DELL Inspiron 1764 with Windows 7 HOME PREMIUM, 64 bit (Build 7600) 6.1.7600
USB: A wireless USB ALPHA AWUS036H with the RTL8187L chip set
Using the USB Alpha wireless, we have been running BT4 from a CD boot. Using airmon-ng, airodump-ng, aireplay-ng, and aircrack-ng and these work as expected.
We just started to use the BT4 in the WMware Player(Version 3.0.1 build-227600) environment with the same USB ALPHA wireless and noticed the following:
VM SETTINGS have been adjusted to make sure the NETWORK ADAPTER is set to NAT.
Just after starting BT4 in VMware Player and using the main SHELL (not startx) a "airmon-ng start wlan0" is executed.
A simple "airodump -a wlan0" to list all APs was started.
airodump-ng lists about 15 APs that it can see via the USB ALPHA and has a continuous default 1 second update of the screen format for each channel.
1. After a few minutes the list is suddenly reduced to only the AP sitting next to the ALPHA and appears to change display times to about once every 10 seconds for each channel.
2. Then after a few more minutes no APs are listed but the 10 second delay to show the next channel continues.
3. Then in about 15 minutes the SHELL screen is removed from the display in the BT4 DESKTOP. Pressing CTRL with the DESKTOP active will restore the SHELL (maybe a DISPLAY POWER on/off situation???).
4. Terminating airodump-ng and restarting does not list any APs.
5. Termination of the SHELL and a starting a new SHELL then airodump-ng does not list any APs.
6. Using "airmon-ng start wlan0" then "airodump-ng -a mon0" does not display any APs.
7. Then a VM POWER OFF and restart BT4 will now allow the "airodump-ng -a wlan0" to display all recieved APs but with the same behavior as listed in items 1-6 above.
8. The same behavior is observed if "startx" is activated.
Now, if we revert to using BT3 in the VMware Player this behavior is not observed.
Anyone observed this behavior with BT4 in VMware Player and/or any advice about this behavior?
Or, does this need to be reported in another BACTRACK forum?
THANKS for yor time, help, advice!!! :) :)

What would prompt several hundred adult New Yorkers—some of them living at great distances from the grassy lawns of Flushing Meadow Park, Queens—to take time out of a busy work day to come see the half-collapsed relic of a building now 50 years old? "It's just such an iconic building," says Martha Orbarch, just one of the many New Yorkers waiting to get in. Orbarch only dimly remembers Philip Johnson's New York State Pavilion from her first visit here at the age of three. That year, the park played host to the World's Fair for the second time since 1939—and ever since, the fair's architectural legacy has been a boon and a burden to the borough, leaving a series of structures that everyone knows yet no one knows how to use.
The 50th anniversary of the World's Fair was the occasion for a public viewing of Johnson's vast ensemble of open-air coliseum and saucer-topped towers: the Pavilion Paint Project, a volunteer effort aimed at preserving long-neglected the building, allowed selected visitors into the circular arena for the first time in 27 years. Not everyone who came out, however, was of an age to remember the structure in its glory days. "I'm a little obsessed with the World's Fair," says Chad Schaefer. He's not kidding: In his period-perfect jacket and skinny tie, the 39-year-old Harlem-based photographer is World's Fair right down to the socks—literally, as he lifts his pant leg to reveal the words "Queens" and an image of the nearby Unisphere knitted in wool right above the shoe line.
Former New Yorker architecture critic (now of Vanity Fair) Paul Goldberger spoke at an introductory ceremony, mentioning that he, too, had visited the building as a boy. Yet, as Goldberger announced, "As exciting as it was to be here then, it's even more exciting to be here today." In commemoration of its debut, the building has now been named a National Treasure by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, bolstering the efforts of the Pavilion Paint Project and other local supporters to save and restore Johnson's pavilion.

House blocks enforcement of incandescent light bulb ban, again
posted at 3:27 pm on July 10, 2013 by Erika Johnsen
The light-bulb related 'energy efficiency' provision of the the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007, which essentially promotes more expensive compact fluorescent light bulbs, seems destined to never see the light of day:
Just like last year, Rep. Michael Burgess (R-Texas) proposed the language as an addition to the energy and water spending bill. His language prohibits the use of any funds at the Department of Energy to implement the standards.
Burgess said the federal government should not use regulations to impose standards that force consumers to buy the pricier bulbs, and said the market should be allowed to sort it out."If the new energy-efficient light bulbs save money, and if they're better for the environment, we should trust our constituents to make the choice on their own move toward these bulbs," he said. "Let the market decide."
The government was authorized to impose standards for bulbs under the 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act, although Congress has delayed implementation of the standards for several years.
It's still regrettable, however, that businesses as well as consumers are stuck in this perpetual state of uncertainty; and as I mentioned a few months ago, the decision to pass the original legislation was an exceptionally poor one, as is all top-down central planning that attempts to dictate consumer behavior and direct innovation based on nothing more than political preferences.

Utah's Lieutenant Governor to open Oil Shale SymposiumGOLDEN, Colo., Oct. 12, 2011 – Greg Bell, the lieutenant governor of Utah, will discuss Utah Oil Shale: A Path Towards Energy Independence during the opening session of the 31st Oil Shale Symposium at Colorado School of Mines on Oct. 17. Mines Provost Terry Parker will introduce the lieutenant governor, as the session kicks off at 1 p.m. at the Cecil H. and Ida Green Center, 924 16th St., on the Mines campus.
More than 250 delegates from 14 countries outside North America and 17 states and provinces in the U.S. and Canada are expected to attend the two and one-half days of sessions on science, engineering, environmental, socioeconomic and policy issues relating to potential production of oil from oil shale. For more information, see the symposium website at web page.
Along with Bell, the opening sessions of the symposium will include a talk by Mitchell Leverette, chief of the Solid Minerals Division at the U. S. Bureau of Land Management; Pearce Bowman, CEO of QER Ltd., an Australian oil shale company, and talks by the National Oil Shale Association and the American Petroleum Institute. The opening day includes a session presenting perspectives on the relationship of traditional oil shale deposits to rapidly developing petroleum plays in oil-bearing shale such as the Bakken Formation of North Dakota and Montana.
The Oil Shale Symposium is the premier international conference on the development of oil shale, a resource that could potentially add another three trillion barrels of oil to global supply. Half of the world's known resources of shale oil are contained in the Green River Formation in northwestern Colorado, northeastern Utah and southwestern Wyoming. Utah alone has more than one trillion barrels of shale oil resources, according to U. S. Geological Survey estimates.
Founded in 1874, Colorado School of Mines was established to serve the needs of the local mining industry. Today, the School has an international reputation for excellence in both engineering education and the applied sciences with special expertise in the development and stewardship of the Earth's resources.

Fiscal Year 2004 Maximum Per Diem Rates
for the
Continental United States (CONUS)
SUMMARY: An analysis of lodging and meal cost survey data reveals that the listing for the CONUS maximum per diem rates should be updated to provide for the reimbursement of Federal employees' expenses covered by per diem.
ACTION: This Per Diem Bulletin provides the FY2004 CONUS Per Diem Rates. There are increases/decreases in the maximum lodging amounts in certain existing per diem localities, new per diem localities have been added, and a $1 increase in the incidental expenses in all per diem localities, including Standard CONUS. If a CONUS per diem rate is insufficient to meet necessary expenses (i.e., there is no vacancy at the prescribed lodging rate), this bulletin also contains a listing of pertinent lodging and meal cost data that must be submitted through an agency requesting the location be re-surveyed.
EFFECTIVE: This bulletin is effective October 1, 2003, and applies to travel performed on or after that date.
POINT OF CONTACT: Patrick McConnell, Office of Governmentwide Policy, Travel Management Policy, at (202) 501-2362 or email@example.com. When making inquiries please cite FTR Per Diem Bulletin 04-1.
(A) After an analysis of additional data, the General Services Administration (GSA) has determined that current lodging and meals and incidental expenses (M&IE) allowances for certain localities do not adequately reflect the cost of lodging in those areas. In the past, properties in high cost travel areas have been under no obligation to provide lodging to Federal travelers at the prescribed per diem rate. Thus, GSA established the FPLP to contract directly with properties in high cost travel markets to make available a set number of rooms to Federal travelers at contract rates. FPLP contract results along with the lodging survey data are integrated together to determine reasonable per diem rates that more accurately reflect lodging costs in these areas. The FPLP continues to grow as GSA has awarded virtually all contracts in the top 70 federal metropolitan travel destinations. In addition, the FPLP enhances the Government's ability to better meet its overall room night demand, and allows travelers to find lodging close to where they need to conduct business.
If a CONUS per diem rate is insufficient to meet necessary expenses (i.e., there is no vacancy at the prescribed lodging rate), this bulletin also contains a listing of pertinent lodging and meal cost data that must be submitted through an agency asking that the location be re-surveyed.
(B) GSA will issue/publish the CONUS per diem rates, formerly published in Appendix A to 41 CFR Chapter 301, solely on the internet at http://www.gsa.gov/perdiem. This new process ensures more timely increases or decreases in per diem rates established by GSA for Federal employees on official travel within CONUS. Notices published periodically in the Federal Register now constitute the only notification of revisions in CONUS per diem rates to agencies. This will ensure timely notification of any increase or decrease in per diem rates established by GSA for Federal employees on official travel within the continental United States (CONUS).
Incidental Expenses Increase
On May 13, 2002, the Administrator of the General Services Administration established
the Governmentwide Per Diem Advisory Board (the Board) to review the current process
and methodology used to establish the Federal per diem rates within the continental
United States (CONUS), and to provide advice regarding best practices for a
governmentwide lodging program. The Board delivered their final report to GSA in
January 2003 with 55 recommendations, 14 of the recommendations were adopted
for the FY 2004 per diem study, with an increase in the incidental expenses being one of
the recommendations. GSA will determine the feasibility and timeline for implementing
the remaining acceptable recommendations. Effective October 1, 2003, the incidental
expenses will increase from $2 to $3. The incidental expenses is reflected in the meals
and incidental portion of the per diem rate.
The CONUS per diem rates are established in key cities, counties and/or other defined locations where the Federal employee(s) performs official business. If travel is to a location where the per diem rate is insufficient to meet necessary expenses, the employee may submit a request, containing pertinent lodging and meal cost data, through his/her agency requesting the location be re-surveyed. In order for GSA to determine if a location warrants a re-survey or a rate change, the following information is required from an agency:
(2) The total number of annual trips (made by a Federal agency) to the location.
(3) The primary purpose of Federal travel.
(4) A list of geographical areas to be surveyed (by zip code if possible).
(5) A list of a wide range of lodging facilities within the proximity of the location where Federal travelers stay (including addresses, zip codes and rates).
(6) If lodging cannot be found in an area at the prescribed lodging rate, the Federal agency Travel Manager or entity must show how many times actual expense was used and/or the number of times Federal travelers used another lodging facility.
(7) The names of Federal agencies supporting a rate change.
All CONUS lodging rate change requests must be sent to the following address: General Services Administration, Office of Governmentwide Policy, Attn: Travel Management Division (MTT), Washington, DC 20405. The aforementioned information must be provided to GSA no later than February 27, 2004, to be included in the next annual per diem study.
This bulletin gives notice of a revision in per diem rates prescribed by GSA for CONUS, as follows:
Maximum per diem rates for official travel in the continental United States (CONUS) by Federal Government employees as prescribed in FTR Per Diem Bulletin 04-1:

Not only did I make it to the top, but I made it with my purse. Yup- my purse. Next time, I'll do it in stilettos.
We climbed down the back side of the formation and found some awesome narrows!
It was SUCH an amazing hike and I was so proud of myself. I didn't chicken out once. Woohoo! Progress... progress.
On the way home, we took a detour and found a little ice cream shop on the side of the road called "The Icebox". It was so cute, we couldn't help but stop. After all, we had earned it.
Not only was it the cutest little shop ever, but it had a spectacular view with tables we could sit at outside to enjoy it.
This will be a new tradition for us. Every time we go hiking in that park- we will end it with ice cream at The Icebox. Good times!

At least the soothing music by Mass Effect composer Sam Hulick will calm you down.
Game on
Google recently revealed an alternative reality game called Ingress in which smartphone users explore real locations to discover mysterious sources of energy. Apart from blurring the line between reality and fantasy, it's a very clever way for Google to collect even more precious data, further improving its already frightening tomes of knowledge. The beginnings of Skynet? Let's hope not…
Google X
The Google X lab is a secretive facility shrouded in mystery in which the web giant's wackiest scientists are busy tinkering away on magical tech which any geek would happily smash their touchscreens to glimpse. Reportedly as secretive as the CIA, the Google X Lab is behind the tantalising Google Glass project, begging the question– just what else is it working on? Flamethrower jetpacks? We certainly hope so.
Airwave domination
Google could be looking to increase its global domination by diving into the network provider arena, potentially hailing a new era of simple, cheap and unlimited mobile plans. The Big G has been spotted chatting to US providers DISH, although it's nothing more than harmless flirting at this stage. Here's to hoping it becomes a full-blown love affair in the near future.
Green giant
Google has invested around US$1 billion into renewable energy, thanks to its recent US$75 million investment in an Iowa wind farm. With acres of solar cells and grass-trimming goats to keep things looking nice and neat (yes, really), it's fair to say that Google's not messing around when it comes to hugging trees. Although we still feel like the goats are getting a bum deal, considering they're blocked from using Android.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
The Act of September 23, 1950 (Public Law 815, Eighty-first Congress), as amended, is amended to read as follows:
"SEC. 10. In the case of children who it is estimated by the Commissioner in any fiscal year will reside on Federal property at the end of the next fiscal year—
"(1) if no tax revenues of the State or any political subdivision thereof may be expended for the free public education of such children; or
"(2) if it is the judgment of the Commissioner, after he has consulted with the appropriate State educational agency, that no local educational agency is able to provide suitable free public education for such children, the Commissioner shall make arrangements for constructing or otherwise providing the minimum school facilities necessary for the education of such children. To the maximum extent practicable school facilities provided under this section shall be comparable to minimum school facilities provided for children in comparable communities in the State. This section shall not apply (A) to children who reside on Federal property under the control of the Atomic Energy Commission, and (B) to Indian children attending federally operated Indian schools. Whenever it is necessary for the Commissioner to provide school facilities for children residing on Federal property under this section, the membership of such children may not be included in computing
Page 821
under section 5 the maximum on the total of the payments for any local educational agency.
"(b) All Federal departments or agencies administering Federal property on which children reside, and all such departments or agencies principally responsible for Federal activities which may give rise to a need for the construction of school facilities, shall to the maximum extent practicable, comply with requests of the Commissioner for information he may require in carrying out the purposes of this Act.
"(c) No appropriation to any department or agency of the United States, other than an appropriation to carry out this Act, shall be available for the same purpose as this Act; except that nothing in this subsection shall affect the availability of appropriations authorized, prior to September 23, 1950, for the construction of school facilities to be attended by Indian children or appropriations (1) for the construction of school facilities on Federal property under the control of the Atomic Energy Commission, (2) for the construction of school facilities which are to be federally operated for Indian children, or (3) for the construction of school facilities under the Alaska Public Works Act, approved August 24, 1949.
"SEC. 14. (a) If the Commissioner determines with respect to any local educational agency that—
"(1) such agency is providing or, upon completion of the school facilities for which provision is made herein, will provide free public education for children who reside on Federal property, and whose membership in the schools of such agency has not formed and will not form the basis for payments under other provisions of this Act, and that the total number of such children represents a substantial percentage of the total number of children for whom such agency provides free public education or that the total number of such children who reside on Indian lands located outside the school district of such agency equals or exceeds 100;
"(2) the immunity of such Federal property to taxation by such agency has created a substantial and continuing impairment of its ability to finance needed school facilities;
"(3) such agency is making a reasonable tax effort and is exercising due diligence in availing itself of State and other financial assistance available for the purpose; and
"(4) such agency does not have sufficient funds available to it from other Federal, State, and local sources to provide the minimum school facilities required for free public education in its school district, he may provide the additional assistance necessary to enable such agency to provide such facilities, upon such terms and in such amounts (subject to the provisions of this section) as the Commissioner may consider to be in the public interest; but such additional assistance may not exceed the portion of the cost of such facilities which the Commissioner estimates is attributable to children who reside on Federal property, and which has not been, and is not to be, recovered by the local educational agency from other sources, including payments by the United States under any other provisions of this
Page 822
Act or any other law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection, the Commissioner may waive the percentage requirement in paragraph (1) in the case of any application for additional assistance on account of children who reside on Indian lands whenever, in his judgment, exceptional circumstances exist which make such action necessary to avoid inequity and avoid defeating the purposes of this section. Assistance may be furnished under this subsection without regard to paragraph (2) (but subject to the other provisions of this subsection and subsection (c)) to any local educational agency which provides free public education for children who reside on Indian lands located outside its school district. For purposes of this subsection 'Indian lands' means Indian reservations or other real property referred to in the third sentence of section 15 (1).
"(b) There are hereby authorized to be appropriated for each fiscal year ending prior to July 1, 1961, such sums, not to exceed $40,000,000 in the aggregate, as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of this section. There are also authorized to be appropriated such sums as may be necessary for administration of such provisions. Amounts so appropriated, other than amounts appropriated for administration, shall remain available until expended, except that after June 30, 1961, no agreement may be made to extend assistance under this section.
"(c) No payment may be made to any local educational agency under subsection (a) except upon application therefor which is submitted through the appropriate State educational agency and is filed with the Commissioner in accordance with regulations prescribed by him, and which meets the requirements of section 6 (b) (1). In determining the order in which such applications shall be approved, the Commissioner shall consider the relative educational and financial needs of the local educational agencies which have submitted approvable applications and the nature and extent of the Federal responsibility. No payment may be made under subsection (a) unless the Commissioner finds, after consultation with the State and local educational agencies, that the project or projects with respect to which it is made are not inconsistent with over-all State plans for the construction of school facilities. All determinations made by the Commissioner under this section shall be made only after consultation with the appropriate State educational agency and the local educational agency.
"(d) Amounts paid by the Commissioner to local educational agencies under subsection (a) may be paid in advance of, or by way of reimbursement for, work performed or purchases made pursuant to the agreement with the Commissioner under this section, and may be paid in such installments as the Commissioner may determine. Any funds paid to a local educational agency and not expended or otherwise used for the purposes for which paid shall be repaid to the Treasury of the United States.
"(e) None of the provisions of sections 1 to 10, both inclusive, other than section 6 (b) (1), shall apply with respect to determinations made under this section.
"SEC. 15. For the purposes of this Act—
"(1) The term 'Federal property' means real property which is owned by the United States or is leased by the United States, and which is not subject to taxation by any State or any political subdivision of a State or by the District of Columbia. Such term includes real property which is owned by the United States and leased therefrom and the improvements thereon, even though the lessee's interest, or any improvement on such property, is subject to taxation by a State or a political subdivision of a State or by the District of Columbia. Except for the purposes of section 10, such term also includes (A) real property held in trust by the United States for individual Indians or
Page 823
Indian tribes, and real property held by individual Indians or Indian tribes which is subject to restrictions on alienation imposed by the United States,...
(a) Section 2 (a) of the Act of September 30, 1950 (Public Law 874, Eighty-first Congress), as amended, is amended by striking out "the fiscal year beginning July 1, 1950, or for any of the seven succeeding fiscal years" and inserting in lieu thereof the following: "any fiscal year ending prior to July 1, 1961".
(b) Paragraph (1) of section 2 (b) of such Act is amended by inserting before the period at the end thereof the following: ", but shall not include payments pursuant to contract or other arrangement under section 1 of the Act of April 16, 1934, commonly referred to as the Johnson-O'Malley Act (25 U. S. C., sec. 452)".
Subsection (d) of section 8 of such Act is amended—
(2) by inserting before the period at the end thereof the following: ", or the availability of appropriations under the Act of April 16, 1934, commonly referred to as the Johnson-O'Malley Act (25 U. S. C., sec. 452)".
Approved, August 12, 1958.

- Registration for Classes
- Registration Instructions
- Registration Eligibility
- Late Registration
- Adding Courses After Late Registration
- The University of Texas System Online Consortium
Registration for Classes
Students who attend classes at UTSA must be officially registered or approved to audit a course. Registration instructions are online each semester in ASAP. Questions regarding registration should be directed to the Enrollment Services Center or the Office of the Registrar.
UTSA does not guarantee the availability of particular courses or sections, and admission to classes is permitted only until the maximum number of students allowable in any section has been reached. UTSA reserves the right to cancel any course or section in which the number of registrants does not warrant its continuation.
A student is not permitted to register for classes offered in two consecutive time periods on different campuses, one at the Main Campus and the other at the Downtown Campus, unless there is at least a 40-minute period of time between the end of the first class and the beginning of the second class or the student has received special permission from the Dean of the college of his or her major to register for the two consecutive classes.
Registration Instructions
You may view the Registration Instructions in a new tab in your browser or you may download the Registration Instructions (PDF Format) for later reference.
Registration Eligibility
You can register for classes in ASAP (Web) if you do not have a Texas Success Initiative* (TSI) hold and are one of the following:
- a continuing sophomore, junior, or senior
- a continuing graduate student
- a newly admitted transfer undergraduate (with 30 or more semester credit hours of UTSA accepted credit) or graduate student,
- a readmitted undergraduate (with 30 or more semester credit hours of UTSA accepted credit) or graduate student,
- a continuing declared freshman, including UT Austin's Coordinated Admission Program
- (CAP) students, who have attended an advising session with an academic advisor in the Colleges' Freshman Advising Center, or a continuing provisionally admitted freshman, or a freshman who is undecided about a major and who has met with an academic advisor in the Tomás Rivera Center.
You cannot register in ASAP, and must consult with an academic advisor prior to registration if:
- You have a Texas Success Initiative (TSI) hold*: an academic advisor can help with course selection and register you for classes.
- You have been reinstated from dismissal: an academic advisor can help you develop a plan for improvement, assist with course selection, and register you for classes.
- You have a college advising hold due to probation: an academic advisor can assist with course selection, and register you for classes.
Please be aware that if you register for classes and are subsequently found to be ineligible due to prior academic performance, you will be withdrawn.
* Under the TSI, undergraduate students entering Texas public institutions of higher education must be assessed for readiness to enroll in freshman-level academic coursework. Four testing instruments are used to determine students' readiness:
- Texas Higher Education Assessment (THEA)
A student needs to take only one of the above assessments to meet the requirements of TSI.) Unless exempt from TSI, students must have scores on file at UTSA for one of these tests prior to initial registration at UTSA. Please check http://utsa.edu/success/tsi.html for the latest information on the Texas Success Initiative and on UTSA's policies to implement it.
You may not register at both the undergraduate and graduate levels at the same time. If you have been admitted at the graduate level but previously registered as an undergraduate for this semester, you must cancel the undergraduate registration before registering at the higher level. Contact the Graduate School at (210) 458-4330 for assistance.
Late Registration
Late registration permits students who have been admitted to UTSA to register for classes during an allotted time just prior to and at the beginning of the semester as indicated in the online registration calendar each semester. Since many courses will have been closed at capacity, late registrants may need to select their courses from a reduced schedule. Students are not permitted to register after the close of the late registration period, except in extenuating circumstances.
Adding Courses After Late Registration
Adding a course after the Late Registration period requires the approval of the academic advisor, course instructor and the chair of the department offering the course. After the Census Date in any semester, students may not add courses except in extremely rare and extenuating circumstances as approved by the Dean of the college offering the course and by the Dean of University College for undergraduate courses.

Mysterious Death of Knut the Polar Bear Revealed
Two weeks ago, the Berlin Zoo's most famous resident -- Knut, a 4-year-old polar bear -- was observed seizing up before collapsing into the water in front of a 600-person crowd. He died shortly after, much to the dismay of zookeepers and officials.
Since his March 19 passing, pathologists have studied Knut's body to determine the actual cause of death. They say he ultimately died from drowning, but that a serious underlying infection that caused his brain to swell was the true culprit.

Taxi fares from airport may increase by $2 per trip
By Tom Lappas, Citizen Editor 10/04/12
It may soon cost a little more to grab a taxi from Richmond International Airport, but airport officials believe the extra fee will be worth it.
The Capital Region Airport Commission is asking Henrico and three other localities in the region to approve an additional $2 fee for taxi service that originates at the airport. Henrico's Board of Supervisors will hold a public hearing Oct. 23 to consider a change to its county code that would permit the fee.
Earlier this year, CRAC officials created new, stricter standards for walk-up taxi service at the airport and invited bids from taxi companies willing to meet them. Officials selected the proposals of three companies – Airport Taxi, Galaxy Cab and Richmond Flyer Taxi, which as of July 1 are the only three permitted to transport walk-up passengers. (Other taxi companies can pick up passengers on a pre-arranged basis only.)
The new standards required that each of the three companies:
• use only vehicles that are new as of this year;
• provide uniformed drivers who speak English as a second language, at a minimum, and who have completed a mandatory training program
• accept credit cards.
Each of the three companies is required to pay a $2-per-trip fee to CRAC for the right to provide pick-up service. Companies that provide pre-arranged service pay a $2.60 fee per trip to CRAC.
Because each of the three walk-up service companies invested heavily in order to meet the new standards, allowing them to recoup that $2 fee from passengers would help defray their costs, airport President and CEO Jon Mathiasen told the Henrico Board of Supervisors Sept. 25.
"We're trying to improve the overall appearance of ground transportation at Richmond International Airport," he said. "It is the front door and the last door that many visitors see [of Greater Richmond]."
The new standards make the airport one of few in the nation to offer an entire fleet of brand new vehicles (41 in total, including 5 that are fitted for disabled passengers), Mathiasen said. Each vehicle makes an average of 15 trips per day, Mathiasen said.
Taxi fares from the airport last increased five years ago this month.
Three Chopt District Supervisor Dave Kaechele said he had noticed a difference since the new standards took effect.
"The improvement is dramatic out there," he said. "It's very professional. I think it's got to make a big impression on visitors."
The airport is investing several hundred thousand dollars on a new queuing system that will help taxis conserve gas while they wait for passengers, Mathiasen said. It should be active within about two months.

Any WWGHA members out there make sure you have blankets, salt, and show shovels. Hope your power holds up. What a mess.
Considering that most of the bad natural disasters in the US happen in the south, there must be more sodomy there than in any other region. Speaking of which, a preacher at the funeral of the heroic bus driver[1] said that it was not guns but the lack of prayer and focus on god that caused the tragedy. That and sodomy. 1. who was killed by the crazy idiot who kidnapped the kid and kept him in the bunker
Simple. If you are on the Olympic Mts. you need to pray to Zeus.

[quote:Anonymous Coward 1147302:MV8xMjM3OTg0XzIwMTcyMDA5XzdCQTkzQzU2] [quote:Anonymous Coward 1147258] A reflection that jumps like a frog. Only on the moon landing footage. I guess the waving flag was a reflection as well. Or how about the same landscape / background on various locations? There is so much more that doesn't make sense. Look, even if ALL the footage was faked this doesn´t mean they did not go to the moon. That´s the point I am trying to make. If you think they didn´t go please explain how they did they actual missions without resorting to off world technology. [/quote] I don't understand your last sentence, but I agree to some extend with you. There are 2 space programs. One for the masses and the real one.

Original Message
Wish I tried to simulate the hoax before. Like nine years before when I became a skeptic.
I started a few days back with the idea to prove once and for all that NASA could have faked the moonlandings, and was determined to show how they must have done it.
Here is my try:
The scenario:
All moon film footage and pictures made by astronauts on the Moon is preshot in a secret location which I call ASP control. (ASP=Apollo Simulation Project). There is a covert hardline communications link between mission control and ASP control at all times. The command module contains a live audio/video feed which is directed at ASP control ONLY on a band which is outside the regular communications range. Only ASP can receive this stream. The command module has a form of auto pilot mechanism which can be controlled by ASP. The lunar module contains several robotics with mounted cameras for mission tasks. Lets call these LR´s (Lunar Robots).
Before launch, the moment the hatch closes the astronauts are no longer in the CM. They are quickly provided with technician caps and overalls and the suits are hidden in large shoulder bags. They leave the platform with the final group of support technicians and are quickly moved to the secure ASP location, where communications is already set up. Any traffic from and to the CM is already being relayed using the CM relay station.
After launch all comms are relayed from ASP control to mission control via the CM. All footage from the inside of the CM including stage separation is shot by robotics. Once in orbit all voice comms are sent and received via the CM relay. ASP control gets input on mission parameters and communications via the hardlink and acts accordingly. At the right time all pre-recorded orbital astronaut footage is sent to the CM and relayed back to mission control.
TLI-burn is initiated and the unmanned CM is on its way to the Moon. During the trip to the moon and once there the same processes keep the communications between mission control and ASP control via CM fluid.
At the designated time the LM is deployed, fake footage sent where needed, and the LM is landed. All footage is sent from ASP control for the entire mission on the moon. In reality the LM is landed, and the robotics are deployed for various tasks, like placing artifacts and collecting samples. Once the mission time on the moon has ended, the top part of the LM is launched and it docks with the CM.
The samples taken are placed in the CM by the robotics and the LM is ditched.
The CM returns to earth. At the right time the crew is placed on board a second CM which is in the cargo hold of a C-5A. This second CM holds a batch of fake moon samples, Hasselblad cameras with still photos previously shot and the reels of film recorded at ASP studio. Comms continue and are relayed still. The real CM enters atmosphere. Comms blackout. After re-entry the second CM is released from the C-130 cargohold and deploys its parachutes. Onboard cameras rolling. At this time FALSE positional data on the first CM is passed by ASP control - there is a 50 mile deviation in the location of the real CM and the second CM. All relayed comms end. Any comms after the blackout come from the second CM. The Hornet rescue team is near the location of the second CM containing the crew after the crew announce their position, an ASP team most likely using a submarine is sent to recover the original CM which landed 50 miles further. The original CM is salvaged and the lunar samples are collected from the original CM. The splashdown of the second CM is recorded and the crew is rescued.
At a later time the real moon samples are switched with the fake ones at NASA, most likely when they are put into storage.
End of mission.
So what would be needed to stage this?
Several movie sets needed to be built in a secret location. These sets would need to look as real as possible and would need superiour crane and lighting technologies. Reels and reels of footage needed to be taken on these sets, including still photography using the actual Hasselblad cameras.
Sophisticated relay of communications. Communication Relay stations on both the CM and LM acting as actual transmitters. Hardlink from mission control to ASP control. Directional transmitter from ASP control aimed at the CM/LM.
Insiders. A lot but not as much as you may expect.
- All the Apollo astronauts who were scheduled for moon missions. (27)
- The NASA flight director (1) as the only individual in Mission Control.
- Stage builders/Set builders/Film crew - Photographers (20 max)
- Technicians and technical engineers for all purposes like set generation but especially comms and robotics (30 max)
- Military intelligence + sub (30/40) to ensure the CM swap in the Pacific is succesful
- C-5A Pilots (2) unless two of the other Apollo astronauts flew the C-5A themselves
- Politicians (2) most likely the POTUS and the VP
- Intelligence (1) Director of the CIA most likely
That´s around 125 individuals who needed to know the whole story.
A certain type of non-disclosure agreement would have been in place. The kind that gets your family killed upon disclosure. Technicians and film crew would have been harvested from the CIA first, then from NASA and finally the commercial sector.
Communications would have to be well orchestrated and directed. ASP would need remote control to certain functions in the CM in case anything really went wrong (like the Apollo 12 lightning strike). A diversional operation would be needed to ensure credibility. This operation pertains to the UFO sightings and claims of alien structures supposidly seen by Apollo crews. It perfectly draws the attention away from the actual faked operation.
As to why it was done? Radiation. Why continue? Follow the program through.
End of speculation.
Now ok, creative as this is, there is the slight issue of the live video taken while Apollo was in orbit (several missions). This footage clearly shows that they are in a weightless environment, no wires, no strings, they are in a weightless environment. e.g. you can see collins shaving while the whole cabin is filled with objects floating in zero-gravity. Was he shaving in a C-9B Vomit Comit? Bit dangerous. Also a plane simulating Zero-G only has 25 seconds of Zero-G before you bounce off the canape.
Now if they really were in orbit this shoots several holes in the story, because unless they actually did a TLI and went to the moon, there is no other way for them to stay in orbit undetected (1) and there is no way to relay communications from the "hidden" CM (2).
This is an unsurmoutable obstacle.
I could still argue about the moonrocks that COULD have been faked, but for that to happen the rocks themselves would have had to go through a process to simulate millenia of lunar service exposure which -although it might be possible- is something that would be near impossible to achieve because it needed to be executed so that thousands of geologists from around the world would accept it as the real thing. Nope.
My theory above went up in smoke as I studied the orbital footage over the last few days.
To conclude - yes they went. They did not die of radiation in the VAB, CIS lunar space and on the Moon. Now what they saw over there is a different ballgame. And finally I do believe SOME of the images and footage was modified "smudged" to hide certain artifacts or items on or near the moon. There is probably a clear reason for this. There also might have been a film set where they did shoot some footage pre-mission, but that could have been a failsafe for the case something happened during the first mission (A11) and is unlikely to have been used in subsequent missions, unless there was a specific reason to show footage of areas which contained classified material in the background(s) in which case(s) they probably did need to replace some footage with pre-recorded samples.
Overall - It´s been a nice fight, but after nine years (give or take) I am back in the Apollo camp simply by elimination of all other options.
Reference thread here:
Thread: Why do so many doubt the moon landing?
I don´t think I will dount Apollo again, even though I doubt some of the images and footage, but that´s besides the point.
Although I apologise to the surviving astronauts, I wish they would disclose what the hell happened up there which caused all the censorship.
There is something fishy about the Moon.
