Elon Musk's presentation at the International Astronautical Congress (IAC) in Adelaide has attracted criticism for what it didn't address, such as
- The many components of Mars settlement that SpaceX is not developing (e.g. bio-regenerative life support)
- Numerous legal-regulatory issues that SpaceX cannot resolve (e.g. planetary protection)
- A detailed plan of how SpaceX will finance Mars.
The first two classes of criticism are misplaced. SpaceX is a transportation company – as Musk stated in 2016 at the IAC in Guadalajara. Lowering the cost of freight to Mars is the most important part of opening up Mars to humanity so long as regulatory regimes don't prevent Mars. A weakness of traditional space exploration is that it is monolithic, thus constrained by internal tensions and discouraging of creativity. Lowering the cost of freight could foster an environment where many creative entities make Mars happen.
The third class of criticism places Musk's current plan in the balance between aspirational and illusionary.
Adelaide Musk was about addressing the problem, "What can SpaceX finance from its business?" The presented answer is a large booster and upper-stage-spacecraft that will be able to: (i) perform earth-orbital commercial space business, (ii) fulfill SpaceX's ISS contracts, (iii) be fully reusable, (iv) refuel in earth orbit so as to travel to, and land on Mars (or the Moon), and (v) travel point-to-point on Earth.
Musk isn't just proposing a do-everything-system, he's proposing a do-everything-for-less-than-everybody-else-system. That is how the Space Shuttle was justified in the 1970s. SpaceX isn't hamstrung by NASA's inefficiencies, but there also won't be a U.S. Government that values those inefficiencies and thus tosses good money after bad to keep Musk's system operating.
There may be a sizable market for 30-minute Earth point-to-point travel, but civil aviation certification of the proposed approach could take over a decade. The most significant moneymaker for the 2020s is earth-orbital commercial. A fully reusable, commercial launch service optimised for earth orbit should be able to beat a system optimised for placing 50 tonnes on Mars. Blue Origin is developing such a launch service and Mr. Bezos is no less business focused than is Mr. Musk.
The Adelaide plan envisions two of the upper-stage-spacecraft landing on Mars (unmanned) in 2022 and four more (manned) landing in 2024. Ignore whether those dates hold, and just keep the two-year difference – this means that six of these mammoth and complex spacecraft are dedicated to Earth-Mars transport for at least … six years … and probably for their entire service lives so as to support Mars settlement. Profits (current and discounted future) from SpaceX's business must be able to support this expenditure.
One or more of the following are required to make Adelaide Musk aspirational rather than imaginary:
- The scale of earth-orbit commercial demand in the 2020s is so large as to favour SpaceX's new system over Blue Origin's and any other competitor's.
- SpaceX's satellite Internet system outcompetes all other orbital or terrestrial systems, allowing SpaceX to fund the greatest act of corporate largesse since AT&T funded Bell Labs.
- Musk has, in truth, given up on Mars in the 2020s and thus SpaceX will optimise the first version of its new system for earth-orbital business, and plan a second version for the 2030s.
- Musk expects government support to be forthcoming, perhaps through a post-Trump NASA.
- Musk expects non-government Mars demand (e.g., colonist down payments).
Of those, (3) is the least likely – Elon wants Mars yesterday. Items (1), (2), and (4) are beyond Musk's control. Item (5) refers back to SpaceX as a transportation company opening up Mars to human creativity by dramatically lowering the cost of Earth-Mars freight. Adelaide Musk is imaginary if entities other than SpaceX don't pursue Mars opportunities they perceive due to reduced freight costs. And that opens a path that Elon Musk can affect, though it would require him to share Mars.

Etan Thomas: What are your thoughts about how the media seems to focus on the negative aspects of athletes when it comes to fatherhood. And Football players are shown in that same negative light as basketball players. They are quick to show the bad stories of guys not taking care of their kids or having a lot of kids by a lot of different women, but rarely highlight the positive stories. What are your thoughts on that?
Lavar Arrington: For me being a part of the media, I have the understanding that they are going to sensationalize things that are going to interest people. Its unfortunate that our society is so catastrophe, and calamity, and failing, and coming up short oriented, nut that reality is that negativity is what people will spend their time purchasing, its what they will give their attention to and it is what boosts ratings. The falling of individuals who would have appeared to have had success is attractive to the consumers. And add that to the fact that people idolize sports figures so much that it makes it that more appealing for people to see that they do actually have human qualities. That they make mistakes just like the common person walking on the street, and I think thats the reason that people tend to focus on that negativity as it pertains to professional athletes so much. And how this pertains to fatherhood, its sad that its a trend that the media focuses in on, but at the same time it is something that is correctable. You being an athlete and myself being an athlete, its hard to always come up with excuses. You make millions of dollars for doing something that you grew up doing, and you mean to tell me that you cannot take care of your responsibilities as a man? It really rubs me the wrong way, because I believe that not only should you be a father to your own children but you should also be a father to other children who are in need. Your mentorship as an individual with that level of influence should stem further than the ones from your own seed.
Etan Thomas: I feel you, but going back to the media, do you think that the media should show a little more of a balance of positive stories mixed in with the negative stories because when they're showing just the negative stories, it gives the perception that that's all there is
Lavar Arrington: Yea, I totally agree with you because they do make it a habit of sensationalizing anything bad, because thats what sells. If you tell the story of someone being an everyday good person or an everyday good parent, honestly, thats boring. Its not newsworthy. When I prep for my show or if i'm blogging about something or different things like that, its funny because my program director will tell me in a heartbeat that I have to make it newsworthy. It has to cause people to want to pick up the phone and call into the show and talk about the topic. Usually, our highest ratings comes from bad things happening. Someone getting in trouble, someone getting arrested, if its racially motivated, if theirs alcohol involved, all of those negative things unfortunately make for better ratings. Its very sad, but thats the reality of our society. I think it would take a serious effort from the head people in media if they wanted to make it a more positive atmosphere. But, realistically speaking, I don't see that taking place.
Etan Thomas: So you think its a more of a negativity sells type of a thing?
Lavar Arrington: I don't think there is any malice involved. But as a former player, I may have thought there may have been hidden agendas towards players. but after becoming a part of the media, i've found that its a numbers game. Its about what sells. They want their ratings up, they want their advertisers up, they want the people who endorse the product, its simply a numbers game. Thats the motivation. Their not looking at it like Etan Thomas is a great dad and we want to do a report on how great of a dad he is so that we can show him in a positive light and he could be a positive influence on the younger generation ho is looking and admiring him because of his ability to play basketball, no they want to sensationalize, something that will grab the listener. Its not personal, its simply what will drive ratings. Now, that being said, it is beneficial to have someone like myself who can understand both sides of the coin. I understand the desire for ratings, but I also see the individual as a person and not simply a means to an end. When I interview someone, they matter to me. They are human beings to me, and that is something I take pride in and I am careful with how they are depicted on my show. I don't think the overall media does that as a whole. I don't think they think of someone as human as a general practice.
Etan Thomas: Your show may be a little different because you have more control. But, it really seems like that is the only focus. Take for instance Sportscenter. They play the music, then so and so, just got caught for whatever, and those are the lead stories. Those are the ones that are highlighted.
Lavar Arrington: They love that breaking news. Everyone wants that exclusive. Brett Farve gets caught showing his stuff on text message. Everyone wants that as an exclusive. But thats because they want to full fill the reputation of being the "go to" media outlet. If you are the "go to" outlet, and you have the majority of people going to your station or your site, that translates into more dollars. Mo money. Thats what its about. Thats the goal of the machine.
Etan Thomas: Me and you go to the same church in Maryland, First Baptist Church Of Glenarden, and I see you there with your kids, and people come up to me seeing me there with my kids, and they always talk to me or comment on how we are breaking a stereotype. Now, thats not what I'm trying to do, I'm simply trying to get some Jesus with my family on Sunday morning, but people have made that comment to me and I've heard them make it to you, so what is your reaction to that? We're doing something regular and people are trying to pat us on the back for it.
Lavar Arrington: My reaction to it would probably be that although I know that there are stereotypes, and very strong stereo types connected to professional athletes, people are intrigued and interested by it. Because it is a direct product of what we talked about earlier with the sensationalism and the amount of being going about it the wrong way, so I could say that there are so many people doing it incorrectly in the media, regular people who may not come into contact with that many athletes begin to think that what they are seeing is the norm. Let me put it like this, how many times has someone come up to you and said, hey your pretty cool and not at all what I expected. Its ridiculous because they really don't know you. But from what they are seen, the way we are depicted, and the level of frequency in which people are able to see us in this negative light on television unfortunately it contributes to a ill informed opinion. I know that if someone based their entire opinion of me off of how i played football, there is no way they would think I was a cool person. And thats the way you play basketball so I know you get that too. But people are not gonna sit there and see you on television and say oh he is a really deep dude, he writes, he does poetry, thats not gonna be what they think. When they see you play, and see how aggressive you are out there, and they know you are a basketball player, unfortunately, their heads will be filled with every negative stereotype imaginable. He is a violent person, wild, crazy, irresponsible, probably has a few illegitimate kids, etc. They are left to what they are being shown. They see me tackle someone and yell into the camera and get up and talk smack and my emotions are high they may hear some of the words I use, and they associate that with who we are as people, and that is unfortunate. What I do on the football field, or the career path I have chosen should have nothing to do with how you see me as a human being before knowing anything about me. It should not determine what type of a father you think I am or my ability to love my wife or care for my children. But that being said, I have to say that there are a lot of guys out there that unfortunately validate those stereotypes. Those are the ones who make it on the news, who are making all of us look bad. Those are the ones who are ruining it for all of us because they could meet ten good brothas. Ten good, responsible, well mannered, polished, upstanding citizens, doing all of the right things, but there's that one guy who ruins it for all of us. Who gets caught beating his wife, or drunk driving, or having seven kids by eight different women, whose ex wife is suing him for child support while he lives in a multi million dollar house, its those guys who make us all look bad. And couple that with being the only image that is shown, it keeps us in a box. So no matter how many Etan Thomas's are out there, they only remember the negative stories that they were shown.
Etan Thomas: See, you have an interesting position being on both sides. So let me ask you, how are people suppose to view us differently as athletes if thats all that they're shown?
Lavar Arrington: Well, therein lies the problem. They can't. Unless they have had the rare opportunity to spend time with someone ad have exposure, they simply can't. That is one of the biggest problems in our society, lack of exposure. If people have the opportunity to be exposed to something outside of themselves, then maybe they won't fear it. People fear what they do not know, and the reality is, that many times, they simply do not know us.

The power of DTMF masking in agent assisted payment transactions is that the sensitive cardholder data is not seen, heard, nor recorded; protecting cardholder data and assisting with PCI DSS compliance initiatives.
The introduction of DTMF masking should be considered best practice, albeit not an "official" PCI DSS requirement.
This unique solution can remove PII near the VOIP ingress point of a contact center environment without disrupting the telephony voice path.
One area of securing customer data that is often overlooked is when customers are asked to verbally provide their sensitive data over the phone in live agent interactions.

Why Chicago is Worth a Winter Visit
The best restaurants are easier to get intoTo the surprise of exactly no one who lives here, 2017 saw Chicago's anointment as Bon Appetit's Restaurant City of the Year. And even before that, A-List reservations could be tough to get in summer. But in winter, everything becomes more accessible—from Michelin-starred meals to cozy corner cafes. In fact, for the foodies among us, the best time to be in the city is Restaurant Week (Jan. 26-Feb. 8), when dozens of Chicago's best offer tasting menus at an affordable price.
And for the…spirited traveler, the bar scene is a draw unto itself. In fact, one of our local deal experts, Chris Vassil, contends that "the unique bars, lounges, distilleries and breweries are worthy of a trip on their own." Our favorite spots to cozy up tend to involve fireplaces or rooftop fire pits, plus comfy chairs and sophisticated cocktails. Try the Chicago Athletic Association, which also has a luxe game room, Drumbar or Roof on the Wit.
If beer is more your bag, consider the Chicago Ale Fest Winter Edition on Jan. 20—a daylong ode to American Craft Beer in the Grand Ballroom at Navy Pier. Think 150+ brews, the city's favorite food trucks and a DJ.
You'll have world-renowned masterworks (practically) to yourselfYes, you'll find shorter lines and thinner crowds all over the city in winter, but the phenomenon is particularly noticeable at the famed museums, where you'll now have blessedly unobstructed views of the marquee masterpieces, from Seurat's A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte at the Art Institute of Chicago to the beluga whales at the Shedd Aquarium (and yes, on the basis of cuteness alone, belugas are masterpieces of the mammalian world). Not for nothing, you'll be indoors…potentially for days if you also hit the Adler Planetarium and Museum of Science and Industry (both family travel favorites).
The music and theater scene heats upThough perpetually vibrant, this aspect of the city really comes to life in wintertime, with venues large and small offering something to lure you in from the cold. Theatre Week—Feb. 8-18—brings specially priced seats ($30, max) to 120+ shows, and though the participating productions have yet to be revealed, know that everything from the iconic, percussive Blue Man Group to musical-of-the-moment Hamilton is in town. Plus, the Theater District hosts touring Broadway shows all winter long. Then, there are the local legends: the Steppenwolf Theater Company and the Goodman Theatre, both beloved for their original and thought-provoking plays.
If it's a concert you're looking for (or just a selfie!), see who's playing at the Chicago Theatre, home to one of the nation's most Instagrammed marquees. Entertainment Deal Expert Ann Guettler also recommends scanning the calendar listings for everything from the city's historic blues clubs to its large arenas. The whole gamut attracts amazing talent all winter long.

Why I'm Now Willing to Re-Read 'The Fault in Our Stars'
In my mini-review of The Fault in Our Stars, I said I had no desire to read this book again. I cannot argue that it isn't a good book –it is– but I found their philosophical debates over the oblivion of death, how humanity will eventually decay into nothing and cease to exist, downright depressing. This isn't a view that I agree with, but it nevertheless gave me a feeling of despair, because I realize that people do actually accept this as their fate.
However, James Duckett, a friend of mine, recently did a few gush posts about the book and its movie release. Instead of focusing on the depressing philosophical points, he took away a completely different view. Life and love in spite of death. We all die, eventually, and we have to consciously make the decision of whether or not it's worth the inevitable heartache to love someone who may pass before us. We have to decide whether we will love and endure death, or whether we shy away from the pain it could (and probably will) cause.
This part of the story didn't pass me by completely. I was conscious of it, but it wasn't what I had focused on through most of the book. This, to me, is a much deeper, more moving aspect of the storyline. I can see it now, in hindsight, but I feel the need to watch it unfold through another reading.
So thanks, James, because someday I will re-read The Fault in Our Stars.
The Writing Corner
I'm pleased to announce that this was a successful writing week. Other than a second read-through and a few changes concerning character and consistency, I'll be done fixing up this subplot.
Next week: Adding details to the main plot.
To Read or Not to Read?
I finished two books this week:
- The School for Good and Evil by Soman Chainani. This is a fun fairy tale read. My favorite thing about this book was how the story carried into both Good and Evil, and I grew attached to both sides of characters. Though the Evil characters are, well, evil, they were fun and human as well. The story also shows that friendships can be more important than romance, and I liked that angle. This book gets four stars, though I'll have to see where the series leads before I can confidently recommend it to someone.
- The Misadventures of Edgar and Allan Poe: The Tell-Tale Start by Gordan McAlpine. This short and sweet kids' novel is brilliant. A most appropriate book to finish on Friday the 13th. Full of literary references (mainly Poe, but some others), high adventure, ghosts, and clever shenanigans, I can't praise this story enough. This one gets five stars, and it's definitely a To Read.
Last but not least, my booktube video this week was my TBR Shame, in which I count up all the books I own but have never read and feel a good douse of guilt.

Making A Greener Bed With Bamboo Mattress?
One day, I am talking loudly, isn't it? I am 23 years old and I tell the junkyard that the infinite quality will never rot, the size of the floating garbage in Texas is in the ocean with clouds and entangled seals and whales, and how small and interesting foam cups are behind the church, my sweetness The doughnut is the devil. When I really started thinking about the disasters that formed on Earth, I felt very bad. But I did what I believe many of you have done and who has to forget. After all, what can he do?
Small steps
Then, after a while, I turned around to consider this dilemma, but refused me again, because when I seriously added the carbon footprint to me, it seems that there are too many back to clean up the kitchen. Apartment. But one day, one of my lights is still going on. Just as I can lose weight, stay healthy and improve every day, I can help the planet: while reducing the carbon footprint.
Maybe not everyone can start riding a bike or buying a gas car. But if we can help us in a small way, there may be hope.
Ecological dream
One thing I always like is sleeping. If you do not want to go to bed, then you can become I had the pleasure of writing the luckiest person. If I could wake up before, I want to do a lot of things in life! Or if you can omit these naps this weekend, maybe my garden does offer a lot of food. Well, the expert in the musical "zzz" I want to share with you how I can eliminate a small carbon footprint. Introduce the most amazing sleep patterns: organic bamboo mattress.
You may have heard it before, you may have some, or you may know something. But if I can accept it, that is the best I know. I can't begin to explain the peace of mind around my bamboo leaves. What reminds me of more I have to help the world? Every night I will wrap you with comfortable thoughts. The leaves are 100% bamboo, a softer leaf than I used to. I don't know what luxury foods are.
The fastest growing factory in the world
If you don't know, bamboo is one of the most dynamic plants in the world (technically, it is a herb). A maximum height of 15-35 meters in two to four months! It grows efficiently and is often used to recover or record fields or forests that are already burning or unsuitable for conventional crops. Bamboo is the main crop of millions of people living in South Asia. Its versatility ranges from food to concrete. It can be used for charcoal, clothing and even luxury bamboo mattress. This is one of the most wonderful stories on this land, however, little is known about it. Although there are many articles that can be read online, researchers are still confused about many of its features. What is disturbing is that it has been used for thousands of years. Its versatile use quickly became one of the most desirable plants (not just killing bears because of their fur). You can learn more about bamboo in the wonderful blog on the organic cover.
There are a lot of great things on this planet. Entering the circle of extremist ecologists is daunting and difficult. While walking a path that will take us away, it is not easy to follow in modern society. But, step by step, we can start to smash the road, maybe we hope. Why not check bamboo mattress? Some entrepreneurs have decided to pay us huge sums of money for "green" products. Why not buy bamboo leaves? You can find 100% bamboo leaves to meet your needs. Without all the money, it is natural and extravagant. Now you can finally be kind to yourself and make every effort to change yourself. It's not about eating bark on the grill, but today you can do it. You can even do some little charity for Mother Earth.

Quick Change
Or, The New York Minute. A calm, brilliant satire of Dog Day Afternoon in particular, and New York in general. The accomplishment of the directing is evident in the continuous stream of comic material, which shows the advantage of serenity in deadpan, but especially a general interest in the work. Technically, there's a coign of vantage here which permits lightning inventions on little themes out of a plethora of films from The Fortune to The Birds that seamlessly enter the scenes and depart. A terrific example of the rarity and ease is in a little shot early on, with Grimm in disguise haranguing Chief Rotzinger, who makes a face as he walks off next to the camera in a close variation on a great shot from 52 Pick-Up.
Or, dating Postmodernism from the first clown in the Let's Make a Deal audience, and the long sleep of reason.

It was the defining image of this year's London Fashion Week: Her Majesty, the Queen, perched on the frow alongside fashion queen Anna Wintour. But who was the designer who enticed the British Monarch to LFW?
The answer is Richard Quinn a London-born designer who set up his own label after graduating from Central St Martins in 2016.
London-born Quinn is the winner of the inaugural Queen Elizabeth II Award, a new annual gong that recognises an upcoming design talent making a contribution to sustainability and the community.
For a performer eager to make a statement on stage, Quinn's collection provided ample inspiration taking the current floral trend to the max.
His collection was full of showstoppers, dramatic full-length frocks in bold florals teamed with metallic make-up and imperial hairstyles. Quinn himself is an understated character and wore a low key jeans and shirt combo to collect his award from HRH, who was resplendent in duck egg blue.
Other standout LFW collections came from Temperley London, who combined the disparate elements of sequins, khaki and military-inspired tailoring to create luxe workwear and evening wear, and Shrimps, Hannah Weiland's brand. Weiland says she is inspired by "Nana outfits" and her collection included OTT faux fur coats and quirky, kitsch dresses.
London-based womenswear brand, Fyodor Golan also made a splash. This year was all about popping colour and comfortable, relaxed sportswear that could be dressed up, with zips and neon colours featuring heavily too. Other trends spotted at LFW include sheer fabrics in nudes and navy.

Ginebra moves up. San Miguel slides down. It feels like an aberration. Like the PBA mistakenly slithered through a breach in the Matrix. Is this what parity feels? The Gilas interlopers are undefeated.
And San Miguel, for the first time in eons, is in a 1-win and 5-loss quagmire. I'm not used to this. Should we get used to this?
I'm 200% sure San Miguel doesn't. It's just not their style. Rebuilding from scratch, languishing at the bottom, doesn't sound like San Miguel. Yet reinforced conferences are quirky that way. The reinforced conference is the PBA's great equalizer.
A so-so team recruits a super import and, suddenly, they can compete. A super team (especially one reconfigured by a big trade) stumbles with so-so imports and, unexpectedly, they stagger. Even San Miguel isn't immune to this.
Meantime, Ginebra is on a three-game winning streak. They're in third place at 4-2. If Mark Caguioa didn't sound too happy with the way they won their first three games, he certainly sounded pleased with the way they defeated San Miguel last Sunday. Ginebra ran, chased loose balls, scored off turnovers, played with a different zing. Even with many clumsy sequences, Ginebra's win over San Miguel was riveting theatre.
Why? Because cameras somehow love poker-faced Nate Brumfield. Brumfield, who tallied 33 points and 12 rebounds against San Miguel, is chunky but mobile; a Hummer which can spin, a bronze statue which can maneuver around the basket. When scientists combined the DNA of Willie Miller and Ali Peek, the result was Brumfield.
If Brumfield is the muscle of Ginebra's operation, Caguioa is its most volatile spokesperson. And cameras always like him. Mark wants to be seen and heard. If you've seen Brumfield during television interviews, you'll know he's more a doer than a talker. Caguioa has always been both. He represents what Ginebra was.
He vocally represents what Ginebra should be. He says Ginebra should play more run-and-gun, like how "old" Ginebra teams used to. He says Ginebra should play more exciting ball. He says they should bring the fans back.
Will one win erase Caguioa's discontent? Maybe. Will his 17 FG attempts against San Miguel (most among ALL locals for the game) ease his discomfort? It probably will.
Yet despite Caguioa's complaints, Ginebra is in contention. San Miguel is in a deeper conundrum. The Beermen don't even have a Caguioa who can verbalize their cause. They're busy tinkering with a new-look line-up; one which doesn't have the outside shooting of Dondon Hontiveros or the instant offense of Danny Seigle.
They're about to try a third import. They're about to face what other teams have long gotten used to; the specter of elimination. I can't believe I'm saying this about San Miguel. But this is what the PBA looks like in a parallel universe. Where Gilas is on top. Where Ginebra still thrives under bizarre circumstances. Where San Miguel has nowhere to go but up

Farharna Yesmin
Lindsay Halls
Apologies: Emma Styf, Emma Burton. Jorna .
Minute Taker: Anne Bragg
We were unable to vote for new Chair of PTA as there were limited members of the PTA at the meeting. It was suggested that names are put forward next week and then all around the table can vote the next chair person in.
It was discussed that we would try and recruit new members of the PTA by handing out fliers in the playground and giving them to members of staff on gate duty to distribute.
We have agreed to target early years nursery tomorrow 23/1/18 with coffee morning leaflets to ensure they are aware this is taking place and to try and increase numbers. This will be for the next two weeks and then we can promote to another audience in the school.
Anne, Kelly Ruby and Hafsa to give leaflets out to parents as they leave nursery.
Anne and Kelly to prepare leaflet.
Anne and I will also speak to teachers to see if they are able to identify parents who they feel might like to be part of the PTA. Targeting early years first.
Calendar of events – The members present agreed to come back next week with a list of potential calendar events and we could select which ones we would fundraise for.
We are all in agreement that the meeting needs to start on time and where ever possible members must be on time as a matter of respect.
School Fete. It was agreed that we always struggle with volunteers for stalls, therefore it was agreed it would be beneficial for all to have as many businesses in as possible so they could organise their own stalls.
Discussion re opening stalls to parents to sell their own bric a brac.
It was decided that this could be an event that maybe run on their own Rumble Tumble Jumble –maybe in a coffee morning.
It was decided to just open the fete up to businesses this year. The cost to have a stall would be £20.
All stall holders must discuss with Anne or Kelly and pay a deposit.
Ruby to look to see if there is a booking form.
Next meeting is 29th of January 1.30pm
PTA Meeting 23rd November 2016
This was our second meeting to formally elect members of the committee to form Gascoigne Primary School's first PTA.
Most schools have a Parent Teacher Association (PTA), which is an organisation of parents and staff. Its role is to encourage closer links between home and school. PTAs are best known for their fundraising work, but they have a useful social function too. Fundraising events provide an opportunity for parents, staff and pupils to get together.
During the meeting we elected a PTA Chair, PTA Vice Chair, PTA Treasurer's, PTA Secretary and a PTA Quarter Master.
Mirela Gorun (Parent) – Chair
PTA Chair – The Chair provides leadership and governance for the PTA committee, sets the agenda for meetings and manages meetings in line with the Agenda.
This role has significant interaction with the school head (President of the PTA committee), the Treasurer, the fundraising co-ordinator and the PTA Secretary.
Emma Burton (Parent) – Vice Chair
PTA Vice Chair – The vice chair provides support to the PTA chair in their initial year in post and after the initial year moves to the position of PTA Chair. Any individual therefore taking on the role of Vice-chair would be expected, in normal circumstances, to commit to two years on the PTA committee.
In addition to providing backup for meetings where the chair is unable to be present it is envisaged that the role of vice chair would formally take on a number of liaison roles to reduce the workload of the chair. These would be agreed in advance between the chair and vice chair in the initial appointment.
Kelly McKinnon – Family Liaison Practitioner – PTA Secretary
The Secretary is a key Committee Member and ensures that the PTA runs smoothly. The Secretary provides a link between Committee Members and the PTA, and between the PTA and the School.
Loredana Pintilei (Parent) – Treasurer
Sahnaj Begum (Parent) – Treasurer
PTA Treasurer – One of the key roles of the Committee is to manage and control the Funds the PTA raises. All Committee members have equal responsibility for the control and management of the PTA's funds. The Treasure plays an important part in helping the Committee carry out these duties properly.
Anne Bragg – Family Liaison Practitioner – PTA Quarter Master
One of the key roles of the Committee is to manage and control the resources of the PTA. The Quartermaster should record all acquisition and disposals. The Quartermaster is responsible for the central and cost effective acquisition of all items required by PTA events.
During our meeting the PTA chose the name F.R.O.G.S
The Chair raised the point that the main vision for the PTA was to:
Raise money, both for the school and for charity.
Improve home school links.
Bring the community together.
The committee hopes to involve more parents and staff with a view of having a representative for each year group.
Our next PTA meeting is on 7th December at 2.00 pm on the Shaftesbury Site in the meeting room. During this meeting we will be discussing our first fundraising event our Christmas Bazaar.
Apologies received from Regina Khan (Parent) who was unable to attend but has expressed an interest of being part of the committee and Mrs Marie Attar

We're Gonna Need a Bigger boat!
Ah, Jaws. We're sure you all remember that classic movie. We're sure you also remember that, after the first time you watched it, you were terrified to go into the beach/pool/paddling pool for months afterwards. We're still a bit afraid, to be honest.
When Jaws was first released in 1975, it was an instant success. In fact, it was the highest-grossing film ever made (at least until Star Wars was released a couple of years later) and made an entire generation afraid of the water, much like how Psycho turned people off showering for a while.
There's something perversely intriguing about being scared and luckily for you, the terrifying sharp-toothed magic of Jaws is returning to the big screen for just a couple of nights at the end of January. That's right. Golden Age Cinema & Bar will be screening Jaws! To set the mood even more, the screening will be held in Andrew (Boy) Charlton Pool, nestled between Woolloomooloo Bay and the Royal Botanic Gardens. Yes, you heard us correctly. You'll be watching Jaws in the pool – how's that for an interactive cinema experience?
To take your mind off the terror of being in the water while you watch a movie about a monster shark that devours people in the water, they will be serving delicious seafood and ocean-inspired drinks. You can also expect some special guest appearances (sorry, we can't say who – it's meant to be a big surprise), and tales of their experiences with the deep blue.
Here's the clincher. The first release of tickets has already sold out, and they sold out fast. However, ever considerate of those of us who love pushing our heart rates up, Golden Age Cinema & Bar has just announced that there will be a final release of tickets, available Wednesday 16 December 2015.
Tickets will be released here so make sure you snap them up (get it?! Like a shark?) early to score yourself a spot.

So, school started last week and I'm already tired lol I'm no longer used to the routine and I should fix my sleeping schedule in the fisrt place.
Moreover, I'm not very happy with my placement test's results since I'm studying things I've already learned like 3 years ago even though I've never learned how to properly write kanji so I' guess it's good.
I'm slowly making some friends which is great since I'm terribly shy and awkward :^)
I've also made some japanese friends, I went out with them last weekend and it was really fun, I can't wait to hang out with together again!
I learned a lot of new words if you know what I mean lol
On Sunday I hung out with Federica, we went to a hair salon in Shibuya to get hair extensions! It's called Arujyansu
It was super cheap and I'm very happy with the result!
They considered my hair color as a "natural" one so it was cheaper than I thought LOL
Yesterday we went to The Lock Up restaurant in Shibuya, it was crazy, the place itself was really amazing, we ate in a calustrophobic jail cell and the food was yummy even though a bit pricey.
Also, since I saw they were looking for people to hire I asked for more informations and...guess who's starting on Friday? 8D I hope I'll be fine, I've never worked before, I'm a bit scared since I'm not that fluent n Japense but I'll do my best.
That's all folks, see you soon!

Dark Lord (real name: Stroud) is one of the antagonists of Final Fantasy Adventure and its remakes; Sword of Mana and Adventures of Mana.
In Final Fantasy Adventure and Adventures of Mana Edit
In these two games, Dark Lord is presented as the main antagonist and ruler of the nascent, but swiftly growing, Glaive Empire. He rules from Glaive Castle on Mt. Illusia and routinely kidnaps people from the land below to use as gladiators to fight monsters for his amusement. He intends to gain the power of Mana and use it to conquer the world, like the Vandole Empire once attempted to do. Dark Lord discovered his most powerful servant, Julius, as an infant and raised the boy himself.
Sumo, was one unfortunate gladiator who was known for being able to take out the monsters pitted against him. When he escapes Glaive Castle, the Dark Lord sees him and gives chase. He almost kills Sumo by pushing him off a cliff.
With Julius' help, Dark Lord successfully seizes Fuji and her pendant. Before he can set the final stage of his plan into action, however, he is confronted by Sumo in his castle and slain.
After Dark Lord's death, Julius soon reveals he's the prince and heir of the Vandole Empire's throne and that the pendant Dark Lord had on his person was fake. Dark Lord isn't seen again after his death.
In Sword of Mana Edit
He was the son of Lord Granz and the Medusa. He was raised by his father although he was somewhat absent from his life. This seems to be one of the contributing factors in his quest for destruction of the Mana Clan. He gained political power and when he became the Dark Lord of the Granz Realm, he tried to differentiate his policies from the former Vandole Empire that was destroyed by the Mana power and started to persecute the Mana Clan, leading teams of Heretic Hunters. It seems however that he was being used by Julius as his key to the Mana Sanctuary.
Accompanied by Julius, he came to the Mana Village and accused Kaseem for using Mana for evil and monopolizing peace and wealth while wars (a doing of his own) rage elsewhere and destroyed the village. However an important girl escaped, and when he learned that she was hidden in Consul Hermann's mansion, he led his army to Castle Town to capture her and punish him. Sir Bogard confronted him and his soldiers came to arrest him.
He followed Hermann's son and Willy who were escaping his dungeons. He praised their skills and offered them the position of Heretic Hunters. Enraged for killing his parents, the Hero attacked him but he stopped the sword with his bare hand. With a single hit he threw Boy out of the bridge.
During his adventures, he met a Mavole woman, Isabella. She becomes his girlfriend.
As a BossEdit
- Power: 60
- Intelligence: 53
- Defense: 45
- Mind: 44
- Agility: 80
- Experience: 120
Surprisingly enough, Dark Lord is a pushover if you have been training yourself. Dark Lord only has two real attacks: a trio of dark waves that can cause Darkness and a charging rush which can paralyze you if it hits. Other than that, he can just slash at you with his Sword. Unfortunately, Magic is rather ineffective against him, so a Weapon that you can attack with a distance with is suggested, unless you feel like rushing him or something. Stick with the Spear, Flail or Bow, but use whatever is best for you, really. Either way, just stick to it and assault him as best as you can.

SOUTHINGTON - An early morning fire Tuesday left a local house uninhabitable.
Firefighters arrived at the single-story house at 17 E. Summer St. at about 1 a.m. and saw heavy smoke coming from the ranch-style house.
They put the fire out within half an hour.
The low temperatures made for challenging conditions for firefighters and created large amounts of ice, according to the Fire Department.
No injuries were reported. It is unclear whether anyone was home when the blaze broke out.
The town fire marshal is investigating what caused the fire, which caused extensive damage to the inside of the house.
The flames appeared to extend to the front and side of the house, leaving char marks on the exterior.
While Southington firefighters worked to put the fire out, firefighters from Plainville provided coverage for other calls for service in Southington.

Hi all,
Carrying on with the pastel theme I've been scouring ETSY to find some nice things in this colour spectrum. I love this palettes(still not as much as monochrome) but it comes in second place.
I think I can speak for Victoria here too when I say the best colour is mint green. It's everywhere right now but it looks so great. Victoria is very blonde and has fair skin and the colour looks great on her, and I have dark hair and more olive skin which the mint green highlights, so it's a brilliantly versatile colour.

RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The officials planning Super Bowl XLVIII want it to be the Super Bowl of public transportation. They are not just discouraging fans from walking to MetLife Stadium on game day in February — they are forbidding it. The only way in will be through a security perimeter, and there will be nowhere to enter the security perimeter on foot.
That prompted a question: Could you walk there? And, even if you could, would you want to?
It was a cold December afternoon when I set out. For a starting point, I chose what maps suggested was the nearest residential neighborhood to the stadium, an enclave of small suburban colonials on a hillside not far from one of the busiest highway interchanges in the New York area. The dashboard thermometer read 20 degrees when I parked a couple of blocks from John Airey's house on a street where front-yard Santas compete for space with Jets signs. MetLife Stadium can be seen from his backyard. His wife said that in warm weather, they can hear the rock concerts at the stadium. But walk there?
"You're off your rocker," Mr. Airey said.
He confirmed something I had already figured out: You cannot walk there from here in a straight line.
"You can't walk on Route 3 because there's no sidewalk," Mr. Airey said. "You can't walk on 17 because that's a highway. If you do it on Feb. 2 at 6 o'clock at night, you'll be freezing your bones off. And unless you're paying $9 for beer at the stadium, you're going to take your cooler with you, right?"
Oops. I forgot the cooler, but it would actually be smart to leave it at home on Feb. 2, the day of the game, because coolers, too, will not be permitted.
Now I remembered a line from Walt Whitman: "As I walk, solitary, unattended, around me I hear that éclat of the world."
I, too, heard the éclat of the world. Route 17, a few hundred yards behind Mr. Airey's house, is noisy. I also heard the éclat of my calf-high winter boots, crunching on icy sidewalks. Anyone who followed in my size 9 1/2D footsteps would probably want my unusually long, unusually warm parka and would probably wish for what I wished for: the shortest route, two miles from Mr. Airey's backyard straight to the stadium.
But that would mean dodging 50-mile-an-hour traffic on Route 17. Then I would have to negotiate railroad freight lines and a body of water identified on a map as Berry's Creek. Wade across? Swim across? The Environmental Protection Agency says it has some of the highest levels of mercury of any body of freshwater in the United States.
So I followed a 3.1-mile route prescribed by Google Maps that came with a warning: "Use caution — this route may be missing sidewalks or pedestrian paths."
The stadium itself got a score of only 20 (on a 0-100 scale) from Walk Score, a company that uses algorithms to compile lists of walkable places. Walk Score's chief executive, Josh Herst, told me later on the phone from Seattle that recent Super Bowl sites had been more accessible. The Superdome in New Orleans, where the last Super Bowl was played, has a score of 80. The 2012 site, Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, has a 72.
I wondered if walkers in those places encountered what I encountered: A woman who bakes cakes for dogs. A man in a bar I walked into when I thought I was lost who jumped off his bar stool with too much enthusiasm — he must have started drinking hours before I started walking. A bartender in another restaurant who told me later that she did not care for sports and was rooting for only one outcome on Super Bowl Sunday, big tips. The street leading to where the Federal Reserve has a vault big enough to hold $60 billion in cash.
And, across a bridge, the Meadowlands. The author Robert Sullivan described it as a place of identifiable birds and unidentified bodies. I saw only a few birds and no bodies, and a sunset that was hauntingly beautiful as I tramped on.
It took 17 minutes and a couple of turns to go from Mr. Airey's house to a block dominated by a five-story apartment building. A commenter on an online real estate forum said, providing clarification parenthetically, that this was "not a great location (I'd call it ugly, not the building, just the surroundings)," and added, "Train tracks and Rt. 17 are your backyard."
"Your neighbors are Wendy's, Arby's, Burger King and Popeye's, 2 gas stations, gym and a cleaners," the commenter said.
But Tiffany Tamburo, a real estate broker whose name was on a sign on the building, told me that two-bedroom apartments there were renting for $2,500 a month for February. "You couldn't just take a week or two," she said. "You'd have to do a whole month."
I walked up a hill to the Rutherford railroad station, arriving as a New Jersey Transit train pulled in. Anna Scala, the woman who bakes the cakes for dogs, crossed the tracks just after it departed.
I asked whether she knew anyone who had walked to the stadium.
"New Jersey people don't like to walk from the curb to a restaurant," Ms. Scala said.
"For people from New York, it's not that far," she said, adding, "It's not cold, as long as you make it before the sun goes down."
That was when I noticed her leg warmers.
By now, I was in East Rutherford, and I passed a hair salon where Jyadi Peralta was waiting for customers. She frowned when I explained my mission.
"It's too far to walk," she said. "You could take the bus. It's, like, five minutes."
After a quick right turn and a few more steps, I was at a bus stop in front of a high school, Henry P. Becton Regional High School. Reysa Lamourtte's New Jersey Transit bus arrived. She offered encouragement as she climbed aboard.
"You can make it," she told me. "It's not that far away. Like, 30 minutes."
Actually, it took an hour.
From an icy bridge over Berry's Creek, the stadium looked no bigger than it did from Mr. Airey's house. But I was getting closer. Up ahead was a traffic sign with the word "stadium" on it, the first I had seen along the way.
I passed a onetime button factory that was on the market for $545,000. Bob Levinthal, the broker trying to sell it, told me later that the owner had paid $800,000 just before the recession hit.
Other building owners, he has heard, are talking about renting out their parking lots to people who do not get one of the 13,000 stadium parking passes.
"It will add to the romance of the game when they tell their grandchildren they went to the Super Bowl and they had to walk in the snow," he said. "It'll be a nice, cold February day. It will be a nice story for everybody to tell. Once it's over."
If the N.F.L. will only let them in.

A few weeks ago, I wrote a story about becoming a vegetarian for Lent, and asked readers to send in suggestions for vegetarian meals.
I haven't had a chance to try them out yet, but here are some tempting suggestions:
� Pat Aschinger-Lee recommends the Veggie Burrito and Cajun Tofu, along with a glass of carrot juice at Manatee Cafe in St. Augustine.
� Kitty Delaney suggests the Farmer Sandwich and Balsamic Portabello with Arugula Salad Sandwich from the deli at Native Sun off Baymeadows, the Shrimp Tacos at Taco Lu, the Fried Green Tomato Taco at Flying Iguana in Atlantic Beach, the Mixed Grille/Shrimp Dip at Sliders, the Shrimp dip and Seafood Dip at Kyle's Seafood Market in St. Augustine, and the Arugula Pizza from Puccini's in Vilano Beach.
� Lisa Byrd eats a gluten-free diet, and her husband is a vegetarian. She recommends Roy's in Jacksonville Beach, specifically the Vegetable Spring Rolls, the Teriyaki Tofu and the Veggie Stir-Fry.
� John (who didn't give a last name) said his favorite is the Fried Tofu with Mixed Vegetables in Peanut Sauce at Mr. Chan's on Beach Boulevard. He also notes the Black Sheep will substitute tempeh for meat in most dishes if you ask.
� Leah Goodwyne said the falafel burger at the Casbah Cafe is fantastic, "perfectly spiced and really filling."

The 2010 vintage was Awarded 95 points and Outstanding status by Decanter (www.decanter.com) in their November 2018 article on Sweetness in Wine (see blue link below).
Trimbach Riesling Cuvee Frederic Emile 2010 - Nov 2018 Decanter review
This wine was named after Frédéric Emile who became famous for providing a new guarantee of quality and authenticity for Trimbach in 1898. The prestigious signature wine of the house, the "Cuvée Frédéric Emile" is highly prized by connoisseurs and collectors.
The south and south-east facing Ribeauvillé terroirs and Grand Crus of Geisberg and Osterberg which overlook the Trimbach winery have been the source of this wine for several generations. Trimbach took the bold decision of not mentioning the Grand Cru on the label back in the 70's. Today, Cuvée Frédéric Emile is considered a benchmark of Grand Crus Riesling even though the label does not state the names of the vineyards.
The average age of the vines, 45 years, results in limited yields. The marl-limestone-sandstone and fossil-flecked Muschelkalk composition of the terroir, as well as the beautifully ripe grapes selected and harvested at the end of October lend this wine a remarkable personality: a dry and powerful Riesling, underlined by a mineral note and firm ripe acidity.
This wine pairs well with gourmet foods, particularly quality fish, caviar, and fine white meats. "Cuvée Frédéric Emile" vintages age for at least twenty years.

Traveling to different places and destination is always exciting, especially if it's to be your first time to a certain place. However, no place in the world is completely safe not even your city. And during the course of your travel you may encounter some unhappy incidents but these can be avoided if you take some precautions. We have the following tips and guidelines for you to avoid unpleasant incidences while traveling so ultimately you'll have a great travel experience!
So you have pack your bags, ready to head to the airport carrying that very affordable airfare you got from Airlines Northwest, the question is Have you prepared enough for your trip?
1. Do your research in advance
Knowing as much as you can about where you are headed is a great tool for any traveler. Do your researches; ask your family or friends that have visited the same place previously about their experiences and for any tips that they can share with you. You may also want to check online as the internet offer millions of information on practically all the places that you may consider traveling into including all the peculiarities of the place, for example you have contacted someone in Japan and paid a hefty sum in advance for a car that you will drive while there, the problem is when you got there you found out too late that Japan's road system is a right hand drive. You find it very difficult to drive on the right side and you are not up to the challenge. So you decided you will not take the risk of driving on the 'wrong side of the road', the problem is no refund is offered for your advance payment. Not only is that money wasted, but it already left an unpleasant experience on your travel. If you have done adequate research prior to boarding the plane you booked through Airlines Northwest, you might have avoided the not so great experience.
2. Always keep your passport and some money on your person
Traveling, especially to other countries, may entail you to take necessary precautions. And one such measure is to have your passport and some money with you all the time. Events out of your control may suddenly happen; like your luggage get sent to another place and you have to wait a day or two so it can be brought back to you. If you have some money with you then it will not be such a hassle, and will not mar your overall travel experience.
3. Don't flaunt your wealth
Depending on where you are headed or staying, it is sometimes advisable to stay under the radar to avoid attracting petty criminals. Most top tourists places anywhere in the world teems with people all the time, there may be one or two among these people whose main purpose is to prey upon tourists such as yourself, if you are not flashing expensive jewelries, then these petty criminals may not look twice at you. However, if say you are staying in a posh Mexican or Caribbean hotel then you can wear all the jewels and trappings of wealth that you like because you know security in these posh places are high.
There are more things you can do to make your travel anywhere in the United States, Australia, Canada, and across the globe to be as pleasant, as exciting and as safe you can make them. Continue to check time and again here at Airlines Northwest for more great travel trips to make your travel experience as awesome as it can be!Google+

Forum Name: Chest symptoms
Question: constant chest pressure, dry cough, hoarseness
|sonyc - Sun Jan 01, 2006 6:52 pm
Share |
I had this constant chest pressure for the last 2. 5 months.
I also have a dry Cough and my voice gets hoarse once in a while. all these sytmomes started 2. 5 months ago. I also have blood in my phlem and when I blow my nose. the blood has been present for the last month almost every day.
I went to a dr. he thinks its GERD. I have been taken xantax 150 for 1 month now and I have no signs of relief from my symptoms.
I took a chest xray and a chest cat scan. the cat scan showed I have mild lung scarring on top of my lungs. the pulmonay specialist said the scarring was not causing my symtoms. I also took a pulmonary funtion test, and that came out normal. my blood test came out normal as well.
I have been stressing this a lot lately. I get pains on the back of my neck now and also pain on my back (near the left sholder blade).
I am 26 years old. I drink heavily on the weekends and also smoke on the weekends. I did smoke from reguarly from age 16-21. I have cut down on drinking. if I did have GERD, would my symtoms get worse if I drink? it seems when I drink, the chest pressure is reduced (maybe becuase im intoxicared?)
is this GERD or something else? =(

When I first set foot in the Chinggis Khaan International Airport in Ulaanbaatar the idea of travelling to Mongolia had only been a reality for roughly fourteen days. I had agreed to photograph the
at the encouragement of my travel partner and Videographer, Darcy Turenne, after exchanging only a handful of Facebook messages with the Race Director, Willy Mulonia. I had no idea what to expect, but knowing that I didn't need any vaccinations to enter the country somehow made me feel surprisingly confident about the trip. I had also received advice from those who had gone before us; photographers and videographers who have all documented the race previously were sure to tell us about everything they experienced from the flash floods to the lack of toilet paper, and especially to beware of the fermented horse milk – it is for sipping, not chugging. The most valuable piece of advice, however, came from Aaron Larocque who said, "if you want the experience of a lifetime, you should go."

He works on the beach in a fancy, high-end resort, and he's got something not everyone has: Andy and Lauren's trust.
Gregory is the manager of the fictional Sand Club Resort on Clearwater Beach (the Sand Club may be fake but Clearwater Beach is a real place!) We meet him fairly early in Plebeian Revealed when his clever actions to quickly hide Lauren's car from chasing paparazzi earn him their trust.
The Sand Club becomes a special place for Andy and Lauren and we visit the resort more than once in Plebeian Revealed. In Plebeian in Danger, the Sand Club becomes the center of epic drama and Gregory finds himself right in the middle of the action.
My favorite spoiler-free quote from Gregory: "Discretion is everything to us, Mr. Hayden."

He's loyal, married and he sure gets hurt often.
Ryan is Frank's security assistant and he's very loyal to Lauren and Andy. He appears in Plebeian Revealed just in time for the Dallas concert (and just in time for tragedy.) When we meet up with him in Plebeian In Danger, Ryan has taken on a larger role by always accompanying Andy whenever Andy travels. Ryan and Andy become quite a team. And in Plebeian In Danger, Ryan and Andy become a quite a target.
My favorite spoiler-free quote from Ryan: "You guys are tough people to work for. And I'd never want to work for anyone else."

This is a defining moment for the state of
California. Politicians we elected to manage
the state's affairs are doing a not so bang up job, and that's putting it kindly. I'm sure there are more than a few citizens of our sunshine golden state who have some words, not to mention a couple choice expletives for the embattled governor Arnold "the Governator" Schwarzenegger, whose job
it is to straighten out California's budget
debacle. But the Governator doesn't appear
equipped to handle the strain of managing
the state's financial matters any more than
he is equipped to give birth, like he did in
the 1994 movie "Junior." In other words,
it just ain't gonna happen.
California's budget woes and dwindling
economy are just symptoms of a much larger
problem: lack of real leadership on the part
of our elected officials and an unwillingness
to admit they really don't have a solution.
In the world of politics misdirection and
illusion are synonymous with governing.
If Schwarzenegger keeps talking and
reassuring his constituents it may even seem
like he's getting things done, while. Iin factnothing is actually getting done. California still has an estimated $15-20 billion deficit and about $200 billion in outstanding debts.No one in the governor's administration seems capable of turning California's fiscal situation around so the result is cuts to public health, Medicaid for the elderly and poor, prison populations, AIDS programs and of course education. Oh, and let's not forget about that little thing called raised
taxes either.
If we just focus on education, what's
happening now to public schools can be best
described as a kind of pillaging. California
is bleeding billions of dollars annually and
can't pay its bills. Add to that the housing
bust and high unemployment and you've got
a menu with little food offerings. California
needs to find alternative sources for its
revenue shortage, because. Without it
education will continue to have its bones
picked clean. "All of California's public
schools are under attack because of the
current budget situation in the state," says
Robert Isomoto, Vice President of Business
and Administration at Santa Monica College.
"California can't just print more money like
the federal government and the less we get
from the state the more we have to cut,"
Isomoto continues. That means publicly
funded schools like SMC have no choice
but to reduce the number of classes offered,
trim contract services, cut some financial
aid programs and raise tuition fees. What
does all of this mean to current and potential students? The short answer is: everything.
Because of California's budget shortfall
and the lack of real legislative talent on
the part of our state's leaders, community
colleges and public education in general will
have no choice but to continue to cut, cut,
cut. Although 2009 enrollment numbers
are up, Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer
terms have been excised from between five
5 and fifty 50 percent, which translates to
more students competing for fewer classes.
Students depending on financial aid to
muscle through the soaring cost of tuition
and textbooks will also likely feel a pinch.
"It's a lot harder to pay tuition," says Ronald Williams, an 18-year-old freshman majoring in Communications. "Without financial aid I may just get my AA and not go onto a four year college," he continues. Fortunately,Cal Grants have yet to go under the knife so moderate income students still have a shot at a higher education, for now at least. Still, the cuts are hard for many students to swallow. Victor Garcia, another freshman admits, "It sucks but the money has to come from somewhere." Understatement? Say
it isn't so.
California legislators could use a
few tips from Santa Monica College
administrators on how to effectively manage
a budget. According to Bruce Smith, Public
Information Officer at SMC, the school has
"done very well managing spending" in
the face of California's current economic
turmoil. However, the situation for low income students doesn't bode quite so
favorably. Additional items on the chopping
block are EOPS, CARE, Disabled Student
Services, and Cal Works.
Thankfully SMC President, Chui L.
Tsang understands what cutting important
programs like Cal Works means to his
students and according to one source, is
why he has promised that the school will
make up 50% 50 percent of the difference
of what will be cut. If a program is cut 20%
20 percent, SMC will chip in 10% 10 percent
of its reserve dollars to keep these essential programs alive and thriving. In other words, SMC has got its students' backs.
California's current financial quagmire
isn't going away soon. We need to accept
the fact that this will be a long hard battle,and until California legislators get their acts together and actually force changes in how the state does its business, things will only get worse before the storm eventually breaks. There is a shared responsibility in all of this.We need to demand more from state leaders and pay closer attention to what's happening
in our state's legislative body. "Students
have a strong voice, it's important that they
stay informed of the state's budget situation
and get involved," Tuitasi says. Maybe the
Governator will concede, but SMC certainly
will not and for all of us that's a good thing.
