On Oct. 3, Gov. Terry Branstad and Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds unveiled their blueprint for giving all Iowa children a world-class education. This fall, they will hold town hall meetings to seek Iowans’ feedback on how to improve the blueprint. They will issue final recommendations, with a price tag, before the 2012 Legislat...
Below are some questions Iowans have asked about the blueprint. To read the entire blueprint, to comment on the proposal or to see the schedule of upcoming town hall meetings, please go to: https://governor.iowa.gov.
It’s worth noting that Iowans are not questioning the need to transform education. Iowans understand that our schools have slipped in national rankings in reading and math, and that our children must be able to compete in an increasingly demanding g
Perhaps Steinbeck’s most successful work, which won him the Pulitzer Prize in 1940 and figured predominantly in his winning the Nobel Prize in 1962, “The Grapes of Wrath” tells the story of the Joad family, who driven out of the Oklahoma Dust Bowl by drought and hardship during the height of the Great Depression travel...
Although written 80 years ago, the play, says director Michael Michetti, is “still profoundly relevant.”
Steinbeck wrote it after observing the life of migrant farm workers. In a letter to his friend Elizabeth Otis, Steinbeck wrote about thousands of families starving to death, “not just hungry, but actually starving… the states and counties will give them nothing because they are outsiders. But the crops in any part of t

Sheep Freedom Day 3: Slight Overindulgence
Lamb Report: This whole coyote-deterrent-radio-blasting-in-the-barn thing can actually be rather amusing. Last night, after I sucessfully locked all the reluctant sheep up for the night, I turned around and found Martha and her twins calmly ambling down the driveway toward me. Bum-mer. This meant I would have to re-ope...

Played nearly all of the games and there's soo much awesome ones.
I am flabbergasted how some people can achieve such nice work with only 100 events and some in a short period of time. Too bad I could only vote 3 times :(
One downside to some games is not taking into account that many people have azerty
keyboards, so some some games were hard to play. ( alt+shift comes in handy here ;-) )

Without these visual clues, it can be harder to hold constructive discussions, especially between people who haven’t had the chance to build...

Iran said on Monday it had launched a live monkey into space, seeking to show off missile systems that have alarmed the West because the technology could potentially be used to deliver a nuclear warhead.
Two Iranian warships docked in Sudan on Monday, Iran's official IRNA news agency reported, less than a week after Khartoum accused Israel of attacking an arms factory in the Sudanese capital.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad now wants to attend the 2012 London Olympics, despite last year saying that the summer games' jagged multi-colored lingo resembled the word Zion and was therefore "racist."
Iranian politicians said on Tuesday they expected the European Union to backtrack on its oil embargo and repeated a threat to close the vital Strait of Hormuz shipping lane if the West succeeds

Ndamukong Suh will soon take his game to a different playing field.
The Detroit Lions defensive tackle is signed up to join a celebrity dating show that will debut on Fox next month – “The Choice.”
According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, the show will feature B-list type stars, along with Suh and New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski. Also on the show will be “Jersey Shore” stars Pauly D and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino. Rob Kardashian is also reported to have a part.
Suh has been very active off the field with national endorsement deals. Last offseason, during the lockout, he participated in the Gumball 3000 road race in Europe.

It has long been said that the only guarantees in life are death, taxes and Corey Perry being a total douche in every aspect of life. Well, I think it is official, you can add another one to the list. Anytime there is a close call on a goal, Dennis Larue will f'k it up. Here's another one from last night from Rob Schre...
If you remember, Larue was ref who made the worst call in NHL history, was told that he was wrong, ignored that, and then was somehow still allowed to ref in the NHL.
Hell, here's a thread from I think Montreal stating that Larue is the worst ref in hockey. If you Google Larue sucks, there is more results than you'd believe.

Issue | Canada engages in a new approach to resolve specific claims made by First Nations.
Synopsis | The Specific Claims Tribunal Act established an administrative tribunal with the authority to make binding decisions on claims and to award monetary compensation up to $150 million per claim. Claims over $150 million will be dealt with through a specially mandated Cabinet process.
Timing | Under the Specific Claims Tribunal Act, certain claims will be eligible for filing with the Specific Claims Tribunal as of 16 October 2011.
