Anya Lassila
This Years Palo Alto City Council Candidates Provide A Run-down On Their Position On Relevant Issues
Election day is nearly here, and 10 candidates are running for a Palo Alto City Council seat this year. With the overwhelming amount of information circulating around election season, it can be difficult to make an education decision on the candidates you wish to elect. So to help readers in our community better understand the candidates and be confident in their vote, Anthro interviewed the City Council candidates to get their position on a variety of issues and what they plan to do if elected. Each candidate first presents the core of their campaign, followed by their stance on a number of topics currently relevant on both national and local levels. Ajit Varma, Ed Lauing, and Lydia Kou declined to respond, but we encourage you to visit their websites to get a better understanding of their positions. Please visit this page by the City of Palo Alto to find out your ballot drop-off and voting locations. Stay safe and go vote!

"For me, gaining a city council position means bringing voices to the table that have felt ignored. A lot of people in Palo Alto feel like they're not being heard by our city council. For me, gaining a seat on city council means that I know that there is someone up there who is listening and who is forcing the other members to pay attention and acknowledge problems and take them seriously. I make sure to speak to as many people as possible and that everyone has a platform to share their story. I have my email address and my phone number on my website, so that anyone can reach me if they have a concern or if they have something that they feel we really haven't been paying attention to but that they think is a really important issue in Palo Alto. I make sure to leave myself open so people can talk to me and I also reach out to as many people as I can."
Housing: "I want to make sure that the people who call Palo Alto home are able to call Palo Alto home. I definitely want to make it easier for developers to build housing here and encourage them to want to build housing. I want to end exclusionary zoning so there isn't such a limit on the kind of housing that we can build here. I would like to see more density, more places for people to live, especially our central workers like teachers."
PAPD Reform: "We have a real issue as far as accountability and transparency even in our policy department. What I would like to look at is using social services in the place of police officers where we can, and using peace officers for routine traffic stops. I would also like to extend the time that disciplinary records are valid for. They are currently only valid for 1-3 years, and then they get to go away like nothing's happened. That in itself leaves a lot less room for transparency."
Support for Local Businesses: "It's important that we provide resources that help our businesses thrive even during hard times like this. I would like to 1) look at other sources of revenue so that we have a cushion so if something like this happens in the future we have the funding to help them, 2) I would like to see us build more housing near transit and near business. If we bring more people to the area, then that's more business for those businesses. And 3) a comprehensive marketing plan and a way to really help our businesses get their name out there."
Stance on Foothills: "We should open the park! It's long overdue, it's been this way for far too long. There are different ways that we can go about preserving the park without keeping everyone else out."
Stance on Vote16: "I absolutely support Vote16, wholeheartedly. I think it's just amazing that future generations are caring this much about the environment and politics and who's making the rules. You guys are truly the leaders of the revolution."
Greer Stone
"I've been trying to provide a voice to the people who are marginalized here in Palo Alto. For me, this race represents a need for our city to not only better represent the people of Palo Alto, but to also have a closer community partnership with the people of Palo Alto, and have that really mean all people of Palo Alto. We need to bring in the voices and the perspectives of those community members who have been historically shut out of Palo Alto. So one of the big areas I'm going to focus on is affordable housing production and making sure that we're actually providing housing for our most low-income community members as well as providing opportunities for communities of color and other groups who have been historically left out. I'm very concerned about issues of climate change as well, making sure we have city planning policies that put the environment first and recognize the need of conservation and stability."
Housing: "My three-point plan is first, we need to stop making the jobs-housing imbalance worse. We can do that by having a stricter office cap, not allowing our current yearly office cap to roll over, and making sure that commercial developers are paying greater impact fees. …The second piece of my housing plan is focused on preserving the existing housing we have because the most affordable housing that any community has is the housing that currently exists. …The third piece of my housing plan is a true investment in affordable housing. …So having a business tax to be able to help pay for affordable housing, also …we just need to increase our inclusionary zoning in new housing developments that can be owned as well.
PAPD Reform: "What I would do here in Palo Alto is one, immediately adopt the 8 Can't Wait. But it's not enough to just adopt them, we have to make sure that they're meaningful, that they're actually going to help. I would reverse the council's December decision where they said issues with police personnel is an internal issue that should be resolved by HR. I would like to see Palo Alto adopt the 30 by 30 movement, which is having 30% of our police officers be women by 2030. …And then the other big thing would be reimagining our community policing, [then] reinvesting [funds] back into our police department for better training, better sensitivity training, as well as doing things like reestablishing the traffic enforcement division that was cut back in 2008, reinstated a year ago, and cut again."
Support for Local Businesses: "A business tax would not apply to small businesses. One of the things I'm excited about is bringing an economic development manager to Palo Alto. Currently we don't have that and it's just kind of a free-for-all, which is why our retail districts have been faltering so much. In addition, we should be making sure that we're preserving retail. City Council just agreed to move forward on possibly repealing our retail protection ordinances, which says that ground floor retail cannot be converted to office space. That's an important protection that we've had here for several years. …We're going to lose such valuable retail space if council goes through with that decision."
Stance on Foothills: "We need to find a way to balance the need of this community to be open and inclusive while also protecting the delicate ecosystem of Foothill Park and making sure that we can preserve it and sustain it for generations to come. I'm sure there's a way to balance that. I'm glad that City Council back in July did vote to open it up as a pilot program, I think that's the right way to go to be able to study this and see how we can go forward into the future making sure this is safe and equitable."

"For me, the three priorities that I'm working on are just getting through this pandemic as quickly as possible to try and get our economy back on track. So that's the first one. And the second one is climate action, which includes housing and transportation. And the third is modernizing our city governance. What I mean by that is really looking at our government through a modern lens that does understand social justice issues. So for example, how our boards and commissions and panels are populated. That's something we can modernize. Also we have a question around policing and what does public safety mean nowadays. Maybe we need a new definition of public safety."
Housing: "I think we need to do a study on the challenges that people are experiencing when building their [accessory dwelling units] and procedural things that we can optimize so that it's easier to build them. …I really want to see the state and national leadership address this broadly and find a way to do debt forgiveness so that all parties come out unscathed. We also don't want to have a rash of bankruptcies happen at the end of this [pandemic], so we need to find a way to do debt forgiveness that doesn't hurt the renters nor the landlords, especially the small landlords where that might be their only source of income."
PAPD Reform: "We don't have other social or mental health workers that are part of our public safety force right now. I want to improve that because we have a mental health crisis here in Palo Alto and we need to have people that are first responders that are trained in mental health issues. I would prefer that they not be armed, and if they need an armed person with them in their response, they could reach out to one of the armed officers to join them on the response call. I want to have public safety be the focus and that means having the kinds of trained personnel that can respond to the kinds of public safety crises that we have. So we need more social workers, [and] we need more mental health first responders."
Support for Local Businesses: "I would like to find additional sources of revenue. What we don't have as part of our package of funding sources is something that can be steady regardless of how sales and travel taxes are going. One of the things that has been discussed is potentially some kind of business tax. We've seen a lot of our neighboring cities implement something like that and they are much more stable financially during COVID than we are. …Our role in the city should be to remove barriers to boost businesses and also to make sure that there is an awareness of all the government programs that could help bridge the gap for small businesses during COVID times."
Stance on Foothills: "I think we should open Foothills Park. The conversation now is around some of the legacy of things like redlining and other policies at the local, state, and national level that have systematically excluded people from living in Palo Alto. And when you layer that together with excluding non-Palo Altans from the park, it starts to have a different vibe. It feels exclusive and it feels uncomfortable to our modern values. So I think regardless of how the park started, it's a policy that needs to change and I think we need to be more open."
Stance on Vote16: "I support it."

"The issue that I'm most concerned about is the housing crisis. We need to get serious about housing because of how it's so inextricably tied to all of the other issues we care about. My slogan is that I believe it's time for bold, progressive, and responsive leadership. In terms of bold leadership, I'd like to harness some of our Silicon Valley spirit and energy here at the local level to actually get things done in terms of addressing our community issues. In terms of progressive leadership, I am a strong believer in the power of local government to bring people together and make sure that no one gets left behind and that all of our needs are being served. I believe it's time we elect true progressive democrats who are going to bring democratic values and principles to the decisions we make at the local level. In terms of responsiveness, we have so many challenging issues, but too often we come up against this 'Palo Alto process.' It always seems to take, as a city, a lot longer to get anything done than the neighboring cities and we always end up with more half-baked, lukewarm measures. I believe that Palo Altans are hungry for change, hungry for leadership that is more responsive. Whatever it is, whatever issues you care about, we need a council that's going to be more responsive and rises to meet each challenge.
Housing: "We need to get rid of exclusionary zoning. We also need to look at how we remove barriers to building denser, affordable housing along transit corridors and near jobs. Also, one of the big costs of building housing is the actual land acquisition, so if we have land already that is underutilized, [reforming] that can bring down the cost significantly and enable redevelopment. …We have a lot of faith-based communities who have quite a bit of land, and a lot of these faith-based communities would be interested in redeveloping parts of their land for affordable housing, but they don't have the expertise nor the time to do it. Our city needs to step up and use it's staff and it's resources to be a more active partner with those in our community who are willing to step up."
PAPD Reform: "We need to look at which functions we transfer out to unarmed, trained [mental health] professionals and social workers; what can we move out to people who are better equipped to deal with it? Can we even move those responsibilities entirely out of the police department and move the associated funding to fund other things? …The discussion around public safety historically has focused on our police department, but public safety is so much more involved than that. Too often we are reactive and responding after something has happened, as opposed to looking earlier in the pipeline at some of the underlying causes and underlying solutions that we could be funding. So when we talk about public safety, we need to look at how we invest in minority and low-income communities, providing social services, safety nets, investment in housing and infrastructure—how can we do that earlier in the pipeline to address some of these issues before they even become something that the police have to respond to?"
Support for Local Businesses: "We own utility in Palo Alto, so we need to look at can we waive [utility] charges so that's not a cost of business that they have to worry about? We need to look at how to expand and enhance University and California Avenue to enable folks to dine outside in a safe way. We also need to look at how we can provide rental assistance or small business loans to businesses and organizations that provide critical services to our community. …One of the ways that we can pay for that is through a business tax on the larger, more prosperous companies who are still doing okay and asking them to help us help small businesses."
Stance on Foothills: "I am very publicly in support of opening Foothills to non-residents. I think that it makes sense from an equity standpoint to open it up. …And environmental groups have said it doesn't matter where you live, it's the numbers of people. So as long as we're under that cap, it shouldn't make a difference where people live. Allison McCormack said something to the effect of 'Foothills won't be any less special if we share it with others.' I wholeheartedly agree with that sentiment.'"
Stance on Vote16: "I want to encourage you and your readers to use all of your energy and passion to get involved. .. I've been working very closely with Vote16, I'm a strong proponent that young people have the right to vote in local elections. …Students are not just residents of the school district, they are residents of the community, they should have a say in all of the decisions we make and our city should play a role in all of the decisions that young people care about as well."

"We've elevated the necessity to respond to all of the disruptions that have occurred from the pandemic, both the health and safety and societal disruptions, and then the economic disruptions on the city and its budget, and consequently, the ability of the city to provide services to the community that it has historically provided. The long-term focus is, how do we have an evolution as a city that has growth that is balanced? So that we have at least as much housing growth as job growth? And it's making sure that future generations have comparable opportunities of that economic, social equity and environmental opportunities to what we have today. And lastly, within that is a great need to focus on addressing climate change."
Housing: "[We need] protections against rent gouging and big rent spikes on people who have been here a long time. In addition, one is how do we make zoning changes to incentivize the building of housing, and in my mind, it's housing over offices. So it's a combination of needing to have zoning incentives, greater density, and larger housing buildings allowed. [I want to] take away the zoning [laws] so that housing doesn't have to compete with more valuable office."
PAPD Reform: "We really look at the systemic structural changes that we should make. One foundation is 8 Can't Wait, …but it's not all of the reforms that are needed. We should look at, should all emergency calls that we currently use police on be responded to by armed, uniformed officers? Our police department had already budgeted to add a mental health clinician, but it got axed from this budget and the City Council didn't even know it had been proposed. In addition, the police union has 'binding arbitration' that allows them to block some reforms even if the city wants to institute them. So I think that eliminating binding arbitration for things related to misconduct should be done in the the fundamental union agreement. Also, two years ago [state law] put in a requirement that cities must release body camera footage under serious incidents within 45 days unless there is a specific, defined reason to not do so, and our city has not been living up to that over the last two years. And so it is a requirement that the City Council take the leadership role in this oversight to assure that we are fully living up to the obligations of that existing law."
Support for Local Businesses: "Right now we're asking every business to figure out [their outdoor dining plans] on their own, but we need to help them. And right now, there are so many [organizations] who are willing to step forward and help, but the city is not doing a good enough job of being the facilitator. And the real role of the city is to leverage those resources to bring others together, to have them problem-solve and brainstorm together. Because we have, more than most cities, a willingness for people to step forward and be engaged civically and help."
Stance on Foothills: "I co-signed the letter supporting the Parks and Recreation commission recommendation to open Foothills Park on a moderate basis. I supported opening it, but I don't support the accusations that this is fundamentally a racist issue. I want to have it welcoming, but there's a tendency to accuse everything as being racist-oriented, when that wasn't the origin, and I think it's divisive, and it's not accurate."
Stance on Vote16: "Well, I met with the Vote16 folks and it was an interesting conversation. They got me to consider it more. I'm hesitant to do it. I'm interested in and will, in all likelihood, support the state initiative to allow the 17 year olds to vote in the primary election if they will be 18 when the general election happens, but I think that 18 is probably the correct age, it's when we really recognize adulthood."

"I think the core of my campaign is really this recovery plan. How do we recover from the public health crisis point of view? From the economy point of view? As well as from the affordability point of view? I think there's not too many people like me [running for Palo Alto City Council] who really grew up poor and struggled and had to save everything and had to try to get a good education. To me, it's unconscionable to take money away from our schools, because most people, like my family, we move here for the kids, for the great schools. There's no fiscal restraint, or fiscal responsibility, so that's one of the biggest reasons why I'm running again."
Housing: "We have an eviction moratorium or rent. So we're trying to protect the people who are most vulnerable. A big challenge though is it's a bit of a chain reaction. So, we have to kind of think this thing, fully through so that small landlords aren't unfairly hurt. But the main thing is getting the economy restarted, that's the ultimate solution."
PAPD Reform: "We instituted the 8 Can't Wait, and we also are looking at making the department much more transparent and open. I'm also part of the ad hoc committee to look at how do we restructure the police department. And so I think to make the change, we need to look at the data to see which [police program] is truly better, so that we can make sure that we keep the city safe, but we also keep it transparent, and we keep it bias free."
Support for Local Businesses: "I did several things already. One of them is, we did the eviction moratorium. We gave small business grants. They helped you know 50 small local businesses. There's a bit of an affordability crisis. The cost of food in our city is outrageous, utility bills are really high. And so all this stuff has to be kind of dealt with, because a lot of people are being squeezed. And that's really affecting the socio-economic diversity in our city."
Stance on Foothills: "I voted to do the pilot. There were concerns about how to pay for it, so one of the things I did was I made sure that it is revenue neutral. And then, it'll be up to the voters to decide based on the data we have, if it is worth it or not [to open to park]. But I don't view it as a racism thing because whatever ethnicity you are or if you're a resident of Palo Alto or not, you can go there. There's only a few hours that you have to actually be accompanied by a Palo Alto resident."
Stance on Vote16: "So, I've had office hours with [Vote16] a couple of times. I think it's an intriguing idea because politics in our city is really dominated by seniors."

"I'd like to make our Palo Alto government more transparent and accountable, and more responsive to the community. It just seems that regular people aren't getting a say. The second thing I'm focusing on is really this growing divide between the wealthy and the poor. And the third is social justice and racial justice. All these are related. …I never intended to run for office. But when I saw in March, the City Council actually removed the business tax from the ballot at the exact worst time for them to do this. The worst time being a time when individuals and families, working families, young people, seniors are going to need the most help, I knew I had to run."
Housing: "We need to lift our restrictions on ADUs. We also need to allow people in R1, in single family home lots, to subdivide. …[We need to look at] the three P's of housing: production, preservation, and protection. The preservation is that we need to make sure that affordable housing exists and doesn't get turned into high end housing or commercial use. Protection is ensuring that landlords cannot use increases in rent as a way to evict their tenants. …We also need to extend the eviction on moratoriums. We need to protect the tenants, and while we're doing that we need to scale up this building, and allow people to put it to subdivide their lots and to put their ADUs up."
PAPD Reform: "I'm a believer in defunding the police movement. And by defunding the police, I mean taking a big chunk of their budget and moving it to better places. I favor 8 Can't Wait, but 8 Can't Wait is just the smallest thing. Now, where should we take that money? Here's what we can invest in, that would be so much more important for our community: mental health services."
Support for Local Businesses: "Taxing of the big profitable businesses is a great way to actually provide funding for small businesses. Retail and restaurants are suffering and now, and [many] are gone because [of] our own city government. We can't treat it "one size fits all." Restaurants and retail serve our community. Tesla does not. People often say that a business tax will harm jobs. There's zero evidence for that. And there are multiple studies that say the opposite. …I've got many plans to protect jobs, and to help keep jobs in Palo Alto."
Stance on Foothills: "It needs to be opened. It needs to be opened with a huge apology. And if the city actually fights the [ACLU and NAACP] lawsuit, I think there will be more lawsuits. Because that's using city money to fight against racial justice. There's no right to discriminate.
Stance on Vote16: "I love Vote16. First, all the studies show, without exception, that 16 and 17 year olds are mentally, intellectually, emotionally and psychologically capable of making these decisions. Second is the fact that 16 and 17 year olds, especially in your generation, are exceptionally well educated about current events, and about the climate crisis, about racial justice. I strongly strongly support Vote16."

If I should be in boat off Aquia Creek at dark tomorrow (Wednesday) evening, could you, without inconvenience, meet me and pass an hour or two with me?


The first thing the ebook I bought said to do was plan. I don't have a donor vehicle yet, I am going to trawl trade me to see what I can find, and what I like, after I work out what my modifications will weigh!
So the requirements for my Waiheke EV.
The highest speed limit on the island is 70km/h, and that's only on one 3km stretch of road. The rest of the island is 50km/h. So speed is not a big concern. I don't therefore need a high voltage motor, so I can keep my costs down. A 144v motor set up could get my car to 130km/h, but when will I need that?
However, there are lots of hills on the island. So when EV secrets tells me that a 48v motor can get my car to 50km/h, I think that would be less on a hilly island.
So: I think I will design myself a 96v or even a 72v system.
There's really no need for me to have a range of more than 30km.
So, with a range requirement of only 30km, if i were to use Lead Acid batteries I would need to install a battery capacity of 60km, as those batteries do not like to get below 50% charge.
If I were to use the Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries, I would need only to build a 40km range, as these can discharge down to 20%. These are however much more expensive. yet lighter. the trade off.
this is an important decison, and one I can make only once I've decided on the other parts, because the gross vehicle weight of the car once all the parts are in (and the passengers) cannot be exceeded.
light, with a GVM able to hold the weight of the batteries.
no power steering or air conditioning!
Once I have the donor car sitting in front of my house, then I'll feel like I'm truly on my way.

Rates from £40.00 Per Person Per Night, depending on season, based on 2 persons sharing a twin/double en-suite room. Single person occupancy rate from £60.00. All prices are inclusive of VAT.
Payments are accepted by Debit/Credit Cards. Sorry cheques are no longer accepted.
Please note: 2.5% Surcharge is applicable for payment by Credit Card due to increasing bank charges. There is no surcharge on payment by Debit Card (UK registered banks only).


These online donations will work just like any other form of donation (for example, donations via cash or check) and will be tax deductible as long as proper contact information (Name and Address) are given with your donation.
A pledge is your indication to the church of your financial stewardship for the year. Online Pledge Form.
Use your bank's "Bill Pay" feature to designate St. John's as the payee and schedule a one-time or recurring transfer of funds for a certain amount. Your bank actually sends us a check by mail and we then process it just like any other check we receive during the week.
In addition to being the most common form of planned giving, a bequest to St. John's helps to insure our future without affecting your current personal finances. Donors have many options in determining how to leave a bequest to provide for maximum estate tax charitable deductions and benefit to St. John's.
Donor advised funds and foundations provide flexibility for overall philanthropic activities.
Life insurance is a great vehicle to use in making a planned gift. Naming St. John's as a beneficiary assures that an intended amount (or percentage) of money will go to St. John's. As long as the premium is paid up, the face amount will be paid. Insurance can be beneficial to donors with large estates (and trusts) who wish to protect their assets for family and charity.
Many public and private companies match their employees' contributions to non-profits. While every company's matching gift guidelines are different, each company normally addresses the matching gift eligibility of religiously based organizations in their program. Checking with your employer could double or even triple the value of your gift to us.
Planned, deferred, and combination gifts offer givers excellent options to make major gifts while retaining some income from the assets. Most of the previously mentioned ways of giving can also fund a charitable trust which retains income for a period of time (usually lifetime), after which St. John's will receive the assets.
Healthy and vibrant future ministries in St. John's will be built upon the legacies we leave today. We exist largely because past generations cared so much about the future of St. John's and expressed that caring by creating planned gifts.
Gifts of property made without restriction as to resale are generally accepted by St. John's. Tax laws provide that gifts of real and tangible property deemed acceptable by St. John's receive fair market value. You are responsible for securing a qualified appraisal for all gifts of real estate and tangible personal property. State, federal, and IRS regulations apply.
This can be a vacation home or a principal residence. You may continue to live in the property after giving it to St. John's and still claim an income tax deduction equal to the present value of the interest given away.
Your retirement assets, accumulated over many years and invested in tax-deferred accounts, could ultimately be a large portion of your estate. You may wish to explore the benefit of designating St. John's as a primary or secondary (after your spouse) beneficiary on your retirement plans.
Give to ministry from your cell phone with Tithe.ly! Simply text the word "give" to our special giving number 774-298-0388 and follow the instructions, fast and simple.
Please note: Donations can be made in any amount and are tax deductible if your name and address are given with your donation. Anonymous donations are accepted as well, but cannot be processed for tax deductible status. All Non-Anonymous donors will receive a statement at the end of the year for tax deduction and tax filing purposes.


The emerging trend of people managing their own retirement funds has caught on. Triggered by the world financial crisis, a lot of people in Australia have made the decision to put their retirement funds in their own hands.
For the trustees or managers of a superfund, it is always challenging to run the financial affairs of other people's retirement funds and investments. This is especially true if one does not have an accounting or financial management background.
There are various web-based products that have been introduced to help Super Fund managers in their tasks of managing pension funds.
• It makes work easier for the fund manager or trustee. Since the online kit is automated, there is no bulky paperwork and forms that are required to be filled in manually.
• The fund manager is able to generate financial and audit reports without the need for an outside accountant.
• An online kit like the one located at: http://www.diysuperonline.com.au/home is designed solely for superfund management. It is an asset to the fund manager. It makes work much easier and so much more accurate. Provision of professional services to the SMSF sector come in handy when one can access an online product that allows them to do it themselves.
• Transactions: It is fairly straight forward to make transactions using the online kit. Depositing funds, making a payment, or even purchasing stocks or shares will be done easily using the kit.
• Balance sheet: Profit and loss reports will be generated using the online kit. This will help the fund manager or trustee decide on the best course of action with regard to disposal of stocks or assets. It will be possible to monitor ROI (return on investment) that is realized by the superfund.
1. Setting up new fund: The task of setting up a find that will be self- managed calls for some kind of expertise in the field of finance and investment. With the new online tools offered, a fund manager or trustee will easily set up the fund following the guidelines provided.
2. End of year compliance: At the end of every financial year fund managers or trustees are required to make and submit financial reporting that give information about balance sheets, profit and loss statements, member statements, trustees resolutions and minutes, annual audits, preparation and lodging of income Tax Returns. With the new online kit, the trustee or Super Fund manager will never be late to submit the returns or to comply with the legal and statutory requirements.
3. Documentation: The task of recording pensions, contributions, and benefits is made a lot easier when using the online kit. The trustee is able to record the members' contributions. If there are new entrants or applications for new membership, the online kit provides the guidelines to facilitate new membership. If there happens to be a change in trustees, the super online kit will allow for this operation.
4. Professional partners: When a self-managed super fund trustee uses an online tool for operations, there are endless possibilities. For example, access to and the ability to network with professionals in similar fields would apply. There is a range of professional partners that are allied and connected to the providers of the online super fund management kit. Accountants, investment bankers, superannuation taxation advisers, estate planners, superannuation legal advisers are all networking and partnering with DIY super online. They are available and accessible to the trustee or superfund manager for any specialized professional services.
Many trustees or superfund managers will benefit greatly by using the easy-to-use professional kit. It does make managing a Super Fund straightforward and enjoyable with no fear of making mistakes that would results in penalties due to non-compliance or lateness in financial reporting. Adopting the online kit opens a world of possibilities to the fund manager or indeed anyone who is just beginning to manage their own Superannuation Fund. The ability to follow the growth and performance of the Super Fund's investment in real time gives the trustee an upper hand in making purchases, offloading or re-investing decisions. If certain shares the fund has invested in do badly, the trustee can plan for an exit strategy.

LTL CARRIER COST DRIVERS – How can I impact pricing from LTL Carriers?
Increase, Increase, Increase... when it comes to LTL rates, that's all we hear from carriers today. Often times, when asking a LTL Carrier Rep what's driving the increase, you hear, "this account is not operating well," or "our operating ratio on your account is not where it needs to be."
What is an Operating Ratio?? -- It's basically when a carrier takes all the costs associated with your account and divides it by the revenue generated by your business. If that number is close to 100... they aren't making any money.
In order to do something about it, you need to understand how carriers evaluate their cost. While it's not a perfect science, and each carrier measures cost a little differently, we've created a Top 3 Drivers of LTL Carrier Cost that can be found by clinking on the link below. Check it out!!
As always, I welcome a call to dig deeper and evaluate how this make impact your company specifically.

Jane is a religious young Latina who is a waitress in a hotel in Miami. Her life takes a big turn for the unexpected when her doctor (Dr. Luisa Alver) mistakenly artificially inseminates her during her checkup. Jane's mother Xiomara, who became pregnant with Jane at a very young age, is scared that Jane will be destroying her life by deciding to bring the baby to full term, while Jane's traditional religious Latina grandmother, Alba, encourages Jane to do what she chooses.

Twilight Hour: Approaching The Final Battle To Save America
By Lloyd Marcus
Dear patriot members of the Tea Party, it has been an amazing four years. Allow me to reflect a bit. Our odyssey began with the Socialists'/Progressives' occupation of America via their perfect Trojan Horse, a handsome, articulate shiny new black man. Barack Obama was the vehicle to usher in their liberal utopia in which government controls EVERYTHING and man replaces God.
In my article published in 2010, "A Black Man: The Progressive's Perfect Trojan Horse", I explained how the left exploited white America's goodness, decency and guilt to sell us their Trojan Horse. My article also points out that no "white" president could get away with the blatant lawlessness and governmental power grabs enjoyed by America's first black president.
Obama was marketed as a moderate post-racial Messiah, shepherding in Nirvana. According to the narrative of the mainstream media and the Democrats, the world hated America because of Bush. Under Obama, the world would love us.
Naïve white American voters thought, Finally, we can no longer be called racists. Sadly, they were wrong.
Over the past four years, Obama has been revealed to be the most far-left-radical, socialist/progressive, racially-polarizing and anti-Christian president in U.S. History. More and more Americans are beginning to accept the devastating truth that our president is intentionally undermining our country.
So here we are patriots, with a little over a month left in the final battle to save America. I am on the road touring on Tea Party Express.
Beginning September 29 thru November 5th, I will be on the Rebuild America Defeat Obama Tour. Bay area singer Diana Nagy who you may remember singing the National Anthem at the Republican candidates debate on CNN will be joining us along with numerous prominent speakers. Our goal is to encourage, inspire and energize patriots for these final days of battle before the election.
At lunch, an old friend said, "Lloyd, I am so excited about your upcoming "Rebuild America Defeat Obama Tour". God has prepared you for this." My friend's words gave me goosebumps. After 8 national bus tours, this is my first tour as emcee.
I long to see, hug and fellowship with my brother and sister patriots at our rallies.
As I stated, these past four years have been extraordinary. Highlights and low lights include 1.7 million patriots in DC protesting Obamacare, our 2010 midterm election landslide victory, Justice Robert's betrayal deeming Obamacare Constitutional and most shocking and sad, the passing of our courageous patriot brother, Andrew Breitbart.
Tea Party patriots, I have witnessed your remarkable growth, morphing from rallies of concerned citizens into a well-organized and Constitutionally educated army. Patriots across America are contributing in their own unique and creative ways, exploiting their diverse skills, talents and passions to Take Back America. No effort is too small.
One man, Rick Santelli, made the first clarion call for a tea party. God inspired millions to hear in their hearts and respond. Despite countess attempts to brand the tea party racist, the movement is divinely inspired.
Patriots, this is it. The final battle…ALL HANDS ON DECK!
See the D'Souza film, "2016: Obama's America" and encourage others to see it.
Special thanks to our battalion of conservative bloggers countering the Democrats and MSM lies with the truth.
Kudos to all of our everyday Joes and Janes who entered the political arena for the first-time as Tea Party candidates. God bless you.
Team Obama is gearing up to steal this election via voter fraud. I give a HUGE shout out to patriots who are confronting this crucial issue such as Chalice Jackson at Patriots Heart Network. Her team is politically locked and loaded to deal with this tactic.
Let us not forget our conservative authors who have released a ton of books since Obama's occupation. How about a hearty round of applause for our true "American Thinkers".
"Tea Are The World" was historic. Conservative musical artists across America came together to record the song, "Taking Back America." Bands and solo artists of numerous genres also contributed one of their recorded songs to be included in the 44 song package. All proceeds from "Tea Are The World" benefit, AmericasMightyWarriors.org.
Starting September 29th, in Paul Ryan's hometown, Janesville, WI, I will be emceeing the "Rebuild America Defeat Obama" national bus tour which ends November 5th across from Obama Campaign Headquarters in Chicago, IL.
Patriots, it is going to take each of us doing "our thing" to win this final battle.
I say to you what Oliver Cromwell said to his troops before entering battle, "Put your trust in God…and keep your powder dry."
Finally, as Todd Beamer said just before sacrificing his life for his country on 9-11, "Let's Roll!"

Q: error: ";" expected before "void" This might be stupid but I'm getting an error saying "; expected before "void" in the header file."
#ifndef PA1_H_INCLUDED
#define PA1_H_INCLUDED

void magicSquare(int n);

#endif // PA1_H_INCLUDED

Isn't this the correct way to write the header?
This is the main, where pa1 is the name of the header
 #include <iostream>
 using namespace std
 #include "pa1.h"

int main(){
cout<<"Enter the size of magic square: ";
int n;
cin>>n;                                  //Enter the size of the magic square
if(n%2!=0 && n>=3 && n<=15){             //If the number is odd and between 3 and 15 run the program
int m=n;
magicSquare(m);
}
else{
cout<<"Number is not odd or is out of range."<<endl;
}
return 0;
}

And this is the magicSquare() function
void magicSquare(int n){
int square[n][n];
for (int i=0; i<n; i++){
for(int j=0; j<n; j++){
    square[i][j]=0;
}
}
int a=0;
int b=n/2;
for(int c=1; c<=n*n; c++){
if(a<0 && b>=n){
    a=a+2;
    b--;
}
if (a<0)
    a=n-1;
if(b>=n)
    b=0;
if(square[a][b]){

    a=a+2;
    b--;
}
square[a][b]=c;
 a--, b++;
}

 cout<<"Magic square #1 is:"<<endl;
 for (int a=0; a<n; a++){
 for (int b=0; b<n; b++){
    cout<<square[a][b]<<" ";
}
cout<<endl;
}
}

In the magicsquare() function, I first created the magic square by assigning each value to the correct the position with the various conditions needed to create it and after that I printed the square.
I can get it to work only if I write the ; before void in the header

A: Maybe there is an unrecognized character before this line. Such as unicode white space. Make sure this line is empty.
BTW, if errors in any other header file included before this file will lead to this issue too.
In your case, you have lost ';' after 'using namespace std'.

A: The mistake is simple; you forgot to add a semicolon before the:
using namespace std;

line. When you add that, you should be fine.

Switzerland chooses to import gold
Switzerland is known as one of the richest and the most prosperous country in the world, famous for its banks, watches, and, apart from that, the country is one of the main gold importer worldwide. The customs of the Alpine Republic has provided data about the import of gold to the country in the April 2015.
Among the major countries exporting gold to Switzerland are Turkey and the UK. In April 2015 Switzerland was reported to have imported 27.94 tons of precious metal at the total amount of 1 billion dollars from Turkey. This placed Turkey on the second place in importing gold to Switzerland, giving way only to the UK.
In comparison to March, the supply of Turkish gold has increased two times. Although, the country did not succeed to outrun the UK, which imported gold at the amount of 50.4 tons.
It is interesting to note that the Swiss refineries process 2/3 of all gold on the world market. Thus, it is possible to find out the approximate amount of all gold of the world just analyzing the data of Swiss customs.
In general the data of 2014 suggest that both import and export in Switzerland decreased by 25% and 35% accordingly. However, in comparison to the April 2014 import increased by 60%, and export rose by 23.6%. The import was 6% higher than the export, which means that import was 59 ton more than export. Thus, the country proved its commitment to gold, which is a reasonable choice.
The Emgoldex clients are keen on making reasonable choices when it comes to gold. They buy investment gold bars in the Emgoldex online store and ensure their money and financial independence. They know that gold brings welfare and prosperity to its owners!

We've raised £860 to Cover the cost of transporting the Thomas Lingham lifeboat (ex Rhosniegr 1904) home from France.
A small band of volunteers has got together to form The Holyhead Maritime Heritage Group. The aim of this group will be to work towards helping with Maritime Heritage in Holyhead and on Anglesey. We aim to raise funds to bring the Thomas Lingham back to Holyhead. Once home we will start to fund raise to restore the vessel (a similar boat has been restored in Whitby). Want to help? then please get in touch.
Simon Evans wants to return the Thomas Lingham, which is currently sitting in the middle of a field in France, to its ancestral home of Rhosneigr.
The lifeboat enthusiast picked her up roughly 20 years ago from a museum in Bristol and had hoped to restore her himself.
But the 59-year-old, who lives near Auxerre, south of Paris, has 23 lifeboats in his care and fears he will not get around to repairing them all.
He said: "It is a bit of wreck, I have to be honest.
"I got the boat from a museum in Bristol years and years ago.
"I am a big fan of lifeboats and I thought I could restore it.
"But I'll be 60 soon, I'm not getting any younger and I fear I have taken on too much.
The lifeboat dates back to 1904 and was in service for 20 years.
Mr Evans added: "The lifeboat was no longer used when the Rhosneigr RNLI station closed in 1924.
"She has obviously been through a lot since then.
"One of the options would be to cut it in half and mount it on a wall but the last thing I would want to see is her broken up.
Our thanks to Tim Hale for his kind donation Our thanks also to Land and Lakes for the £200 donation to the appeal.
We have had a donation from Holyhead Town Council, and also a donation from Cocon, both via cheques. Our thanks to both for helping us.
Hi Alan as promised part of my family's silverware auction to help with the restoration. On behalf of my brother and me in memory of my parents.
Donating on behalf of Land & Lakes Anglesey. Good luck for bring her home! And let me know if you need any PR!!
still hard to find because the spelling is incorrect ! Rhosneigr !
raise funds for Dover RNLI Lifeboat Station.
A bike for Thomas to give him time to interact with his family together "as a family" this would give Thomas and his family freedom.
Raise funds for the Wells-next-the-Sea RNLI Lifeboat.
Rhosneigr Boat A small band of volunteers has got together to form The Holyhead Heritage Group. The aim of this group will be to work towards helping with Heritage in Holyhead and on Anglesey. We have brought the Thomas Lingham (Ex Rhosneigr Lifeboat) back to Holyhead.

Ein Mensch wie Dieter – Golzower ist Teil einer Langzeitdokumentation mit dem Namen "Die Kinder von Golzow", die 1961 von Regisseur Winfried Junge begonnen und erst 2007 beendet wurde. Nach einer Idee von Karl Gass begleitete er mehrere Kinder einer Schulklasse aus Golzow im Oderbruch über diesen Zeitraum hinweg und präsentierte seine Ergebnisse in mehreren Filmen.

Handlung
Hauptfigur des Films ist Dieter Finger, geboren am 27. August 1953. Dessen Leben hat Winfried Junge über einen Zeitraum von 1961 bis 1999 aufgezeichnet. In verschiedenen Unterkapiteln wird Dieter vorgestellt und über Teile seines Lebens erzählt. Doch die Dokumentation startet nicht mit dem ersten Schuljahr. Sie beginnt mit einem Besuch bei Dieter in Libyen im Jahr 1988. Dieter, der immer vom Reisen geträumt hat, durfte zum Arbeiten nach Libyen reisen, um beim Bau eines Getreidesilos mitzuhelfen. So weit war er aus der DDR noch nicht entfernt und auch für das Filmteam gab es bisher keine solch eine weite Reise, um einem der Golzower Kinder hinterher zu fahren. Erst danach wird Dieters Leben chronologisch ab der ersten Klasse dargestellt.

Dieter hat bei der Einschulung seiner Klassenkameraden bereits ein Jahr in der Schule voraus, denn er war sitzengeblieben und wiederholt nun die erste Klasse. Das ist der Grund, weshalb er überhaupt bei diesem Projekt mitmachen kann. Wie bereits im vorhergehenden Schuljahr und auch später, macht ihm der Sportunterricht am meisten Spaß. Etwas unangenehmer ist ihm das Vorsingen in der fünften Klasse. In der achten Klasse beobachtet ihn die Kamera in verschiedenen Unterrichtsstunden und man kann an seinem Gesichtsausdruck eindeutig seine Meinung zu dem jeweiligen Stoff ablesen. Dieter kann seine Lehrer mit seiner Offenheit und seinem Benehmen leicht zur Verzweiflung bringen, es wird aber nicht versucht, den Anteil der Schule an seinem Verhalten zu erforschen. In einem Interview in seinem Klassenraum erklärt er, dass er ein Hobby für das Schönste im Leben hält. Später will er einmal eine Familie mit etwa zwei Kindern haben, zu Hause sind sie sechs Kinder, so viel möchte er aber nicht. Er schätzte sich selbst als durchschnittlichen Schüler ein, der in den letzten Jahren aber in seinen Leistungen nachgelassen hat, da ihm die Lust zum Lernen fehlte. Er möchte aber auf jeden Fall ein sehr langes Leben haben und viele Reisen machen, die er bisher nur im Traum erlebte. Erlernen will er den Beruf eines Zimmermanns, weshalb er auch, zur Freude seiner Lehrer, bereits nach der achten Klasse die Schule verlässt.

1971 steht Dieter vor seinem Berufsabschluss beim VEB Landbaukombinat Wriezen. Während seine ehemaligen Mitschüler jetzt aus der Schule kommen und mit der Lehre beginnen, verdiente er bereits sein erstes Geld. Nur das Zimmern hat er bisher noch nicht richtig gelernt, denn die meiste Zeit hatte er mit Beton zu tun. Von 1972 bis 1975 versieht er seinen Dienst in der NVA, für die er sich für die nächsten drei Jahre verpflichtet hat. Wenn er schon zur Armee muss, will er auch als Unteroffizier heimkehren, außerdem ist der Sold viel höher. Nach drei Wintern bildet er selbst junge Soldaten bei den Pioniertauchern aus. Bereut hat er diesen Schritt nicht und will sich nach seiner Armeezeit bei der Deutsche Seereederei bewerben, um endlich etwas von der Welt zu sehen. Da klappt zwar nicht, dafür findet er aber Anita Schimmelpfennig, eine angehende Krankenschwester, die er am 17. September 1977 heiratet. Noch im Alter von zwölf Jahren stellte er in der Schule die Frage, warum man überhaupt heiraten muss. Jetzt muss er aber nicht heiraten, sondern will, denn die gemeinsame Tochter Dana ist bereits 4½ Monate alt. Die ländliche Hochzeit mit mehr als 50 Personen findet in Reitwein, einem Nachbarort von Golzow, statt. Im Herbst 1978 bekommt Dieters Frau über ihren Betrieb eine Wohnung in Frankfurt (Oder). Er selbst gehört  jetzt zur Baubrigade der Golzower LPG, wird aber überall im Betrieb eingesetzt, da er sehr flexibel einsetzbar ist und keine Beschäftigung als Erniedrigung einschätzt. Er lässt sich aber abwerben und arbeitet nun wieder in seinem erlernten Beruf in einem Baubetrieb und wird im gesamten Bezirk Frankfurt (Oder) eingesetzt. Nachdem die junge Familie mit Thomas ein zweites Kind bekam, wurde ihr die Zweizimmer-Wohnung jedoch zu klein. Nach einem Schreiben an den Staatsrat der DDR, mit der Androhung an der nächsten Wahl nicht teilzunehmen, klappte es dann doch mit einer 2 ½ Zimmerwohnung im Frankfurter Neubaugebiet Neuberesinchen.

Im Jahr 1983 arbeitet Anita im Dreischicht-System in einem Alten- und Pflegeheim ganz in der Nähe ihrer Wohnung. Dieter hat keine Ahnung von der Tätigkeit seiner Frau, er merkt nur, dass sie sich viel weniger sehen, weshalb es auch öfter zum Streit kommt. Dieter ist in seiner Brigade jetzt Vertrauensmann, würde viel lieber mit Holz arbeiten, doch daraus bestehen die Gerüste nicht mehr. Da es vor zehn Jahren mit der Handelsmarine nichts wurde, hat er sich jetzt für eine Tätigkeit im Nichtsozialistischen Wirtschaftsgebiet beworben,. Nach einem Jahr ist es soweit und er baut mit an der Startbahn West in Frankfurt am Main mit, doch dahin durfte die Kamera ihm nicht folgen. Dafür darf die DEFA wieder drehen, als Dieter an einem Englisch-Unterricht teilnimmt, den er zur Vorbereitung eines Einsatzes in Libyen besucht. Am 18. Mai 1987 fliegt er dann, nach mehrmaligen Hin und Her, wirklich nach Libyen, um dort am Bau eines Getreidesilos mitzuarbeiten. Nach einem ¾ Jahr, kurz vor seiner Rückkehr in die DDR, bekommt er Besuch von Winfried Junge. In einem Interview gesteht er, dass er sich sehr auf die Rückkehr zu seiner Familie freut, die ihm sehr gefehlt hat. Die Arbeit und das Verhältnis zur Bevölkerung, veranlassen ihn nicht zu Begeisterungsausbrüchen über diesen Arbeitseinsatz. Auch die wenigen Ausflüge in die nächste Stadt waren nicht der Rede wert, das Tagegeld in harter Währung sparte er lieber, damit sich seine Frau nach seiner Rückkehr selbst etwas im Intershop aussuchen kann. Da Libyen ein alkoholfreies Land ist, wird der Abschied mit selbstgebrauten Bier gefeiert.

Im Jahr 1989 arbeitet Dieter, immer noch als DDR-Bürger, in West-Berlin. Seine Mutter meint, dass ihr Sohn viel zu sehr an sich selbst denkt und die ständige Trennung seiner Frau viel zu schaffen macht. Jetzt kommt er zwar jedes Wochenende nach Hause, jedoch die monatelange Abwesenheit in Libyen war doch zu viel, denn Anita brauchte ihn. 1990 kommt dann mit Isabell das dritte Kind zur Welt, ein Wunsch- und noch ein DDR-Kind. Dem Übergang in die Bundesrepublik sehen Dieter und Anita hoffnungsvoll entgegen, obwohl sie auch betonten, dass in der Vergangenheit nicht alles schlecht war. Bei der Wahl zum Bundestag 1990 hat sich bei Dieter doch einiger Unmut aufgestaut, so dass er im Gegensatz zu seiner Frau, nicht von seinem Wahlrecht Gebrauch macht. Den ersten Jahrestag der Deutschen Einheit am 3. Oktober 1991 verbringt das Filmteam anlässlich des 30. Jahrestages der Dreharbeiten, mit den "Kindern von Golzow" bei den offiziellen Feierlichkeiten in Hamburg. Ende April 1992 sind Dieter und Anita Teilnehmer einer Schulung für Amway-Produkte in Österreich, denn sie wollen jetzt Unternehmer werden. Wieder zurück in Deutschland, bleiben nur noch eine Reise nach Österreich und ein gemeinsamer Tanzabend in Erinnerung.

Dieter arbeitet wieder auf dem Bau und gemeinsam mit seiner Frau fassen sie 1984 den Beschluss, sich in Reitwein ein eigenes Haus zu bauen. Zwei Jahre später ist allerdings, außer dem Beginn eines jetzt ruhenden Rohbaus, noch nicht viel davon zu sehen. Im Frühjahr 1996 geht es aber endlich weiter mit dem Bau und Dieter erklärt, dass es in erster Linie der Verwaltungskram war, der den Bau so verzögerte, nun will er aber im September endlich einziehen. Mehr erzählte er nicht, denn er will nicht mehr zurück, sondern nur noch nach vorn blicken. Im Dezember ist es dann endlich soweit, die Familie kann in das fast fertige Haus einziehen. Im Sommer 1997 gibt es dann bereits das nächste große Problem: Die Oder führt extremes Hochwasser und es besteht die Gefahr, dass die Deiche nicht halten. Im Jahr 1998 wird Dieter im Alter von fast 49 Jahren arbeitslos. Zurückblickend auf sein Berufsleben bezeichnet er nun die Zeit in Libyen als die schönste. Anita arbeitet jetzt in der Altenpflege und Dieter, der ja nun viel Zeit hat, betätigt sich als ihr Fahrer. Beide haben ihre Rollen getauscht, denn bisher war Anita arbeitslos. Doch auch das wechselt wieder, denn Dieter war sogar eine Zeit lang als Koch beschäftigt, bis ihn seine alte Firma wieder einstellt, natürlich nicht mehr für das gleiche Geld und nun war Anita wieder ohne Arbeit, das sie das Arbeitspensum nicht mehr schaffte. Im Jahr 1999 steigen Dieter und somit auch seine Familie aus dem Langzeitprojekt aus.

Produktion und Veröffentlichung
Ein Mensch wie Dieter – Golzower dokumentiert Teile des Lebens des am 27. August 1953 geborenen und in Golzow aufgewachsenen Dieter Finger, der 1999 aus dem Projekt auf eigenen Wunsch ausschied. Der Film wurde durch die Produktionsfirma à jour Film- & Fernsehproduktion GmbH (Berlin) in Ko-Produktion mit der DEFA-Stiftung, dem ORB, dem SWR und dem SR mit mehreren Schwarzweißfilm Sequenzen hergestellt und hatte seine Premiere während des Internationalen Forums des Jungen Films am 13. Februar 2000. Der Start in den Kinos der Bundesrepublik fand am 2. März 2000 statt. Die Erstausstrahlung im Fernsehen erfolgte am 14. Januar 2001 im Sender Nord 3.

Kritik
Das Lexikon des internationalen Films fand es spannend, wie sich der pädagogische Ansatz des Films immer mehr reduzierte und in einer echten Partnerschaft mit Dieter und dem Zuschauer endete.

Leaving No Child Left Behind
On March 14, 2011, President Obama urged Congress to fix the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law before the start of the next school year in September. In recent weeks, the president has raised the public profile of K–12 education reform by making the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) one of the major themes of his State of the Union address. Over a year ago, the Obama Administration released its "Blueprint for Reform" detailing its plan for rewriting the law.
Neither party is happy with the results of the most previous reauthorization of the education law, NCLB. This sentiment is largely shared across the country by state governors, local school boards, administrators, and teachers. As a result, K–12 education reform may be one area where the partisan gridlock that has plagued issues like health care and deficit reduction may be broken. With presidential and congressional elections looming in 2012, both parties see the potential rewards of working together on a popular issue like education.
On March 10, the President convened a bipartisan meeting with Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and the eight key Democratic and Republican members of the House and Senate whose committees and subcommittees have jurisdiction over the rewrite of the ESEA. The meeting included Democratic Sens. Tom Harkin (D-IA) and Jeff Bingaman (D-NM); Republican Senators Michael B. Enzi of Wyoming and Lamar Alexander of Tennessee; Republican Representatives John Kline of Michigan and Duncan Hunter of California, and Democratic Representatives George Miller of California and Dale E. Kildee of Michigan.
The Department of Education has encouraged states to work together to create "voluntary" common core standards. The Administration has also pressed for greater teacher accountability, charter schools, and giving greater flexibility to state and local officials. These are all potential areas of common ground with Republicans whose goal will be to reduce federal intervention in education at the state and local level.
One possible dealbreaker would be a reform bill that would require major increases in new funding for the Department of Education. House Republicans have included cuts in education programs in each of the continuing budget resolutions that have temporarily prevented a federal government shutdown. And the fiscal year 2011 funding bill (H.R. 1) that passed the House a few weeks ago cut $5 billion from the Education Department's budget and eliminated funding for popular programs such as Head Start. That bill died in the Senate last week.
In his March 14 speech, while noting the need for deficit reduction, President Obama said, "we can't be reckless, and we can't be irresponsible about how we cut. We can't cut education. We cannot cut the things that will make America more competitive." He went on to say with regard to education cuts, "I will not let it happen."
At this point in the process, the Senate is far ahead of the House in readying a bill for the floor. Last year, Senator Harkin, who chairs the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee (HELP) convened numerous hearings on various aspects of the education law. His staff has been working with Ranking Member Enzi's staff for some time now crafting a draft bill for HELP Committee consideration. The National Coalition for History has been urging Senator's to preserve Teaching American History grants in the final draft. Senator Harkin has repeatedly stated that he wants a bill introduced by Easter.
The change of party control in the House has stymied efforts to hold hearings and craft a bill in that body. New Chairman of the Education and the Workforce Committee John Kline (R-MI) has not yet committed to a timetable for holding hearings and in the past has signaled that he prefers the passage of "targeted legislation" dealing with specific aspects of the education law rather than passage of an omnibus bill envisioned by Senate leaders. The Committee has also had to assimilate 11 new members, nearly half of the Republican majority, and bring them up to speed on the issues. In addition, the Subcommittee on Early Childhood, Elementary and Secondary Education has a new chair, Representative Duncan D. Hunter (R-CA) who is just starting his second term in Congress.
Chairman Kline was quick to respond to the president's call for passage of a reform bill by this fall, stating, "As we develop targeted, fiscally responsible reforms, the Committee on Education and the Workforce continues to work with school officials and state and local leaders to learn about the tools they need to prepare students for the future. We need to take the time to get this right—we cannot allow an arbitrary timeline to undermine quality reforms that encourage innovation, flexibility, and parental involvement."
Of particular concern to historians in the ESEA reauthorization is the future of K–12 history education. The House-passed version of the continuing resolution (H.R. 1) to provide funding for the remainder of fiscal year 2011 eliminated funding for the Teaching American History (TAH) grants program. The Senate version would have continued funding TAH at the fiscal 2010 level of $119 million. Neither of these bills passed the Senate however. As a result, TAH funding for the current fiscal year that ends on September 30 remains in limbo.
On February 2, 2011, the Department of Education announced that it was inviting applications for new awards under the Teaching American History (TAH) grant program for fiscal year 2011. However, the Education Department made it clear that it was only accepting applications, "to allow enough time to complete the grant process before the end of the current fiscal year, if Congress appropriates funds for this program." The president's fiscal year 2012 budget request for the Department of Education was sent to Congress in February and it once again eliminates Teaching American History grants (TAH) as a separately funded program. As it did for fiscal 2011, the Administration once again proposed consolidating history education into a new program called Effective Teaching and Learning for a Well-Rounded Education.
In fiscal 2011 the administration proposed $265 million in funding for the new initiative. In fiscal 2012 that amount would be reduced to $246 million. The Effective Teaching and Learning for a Well-Rounded Education program would support competitive grants to States, high-need LEAs, and nonprofit partners to develop and expand innovative practices to improve teaching and learning of the arts, foreign languages, history, civics, economics and financial literacy, environmental education, physical education, health education, and other subjects.
Teaching American History Grants would be consolidated into this new program and would no longer exist as a free-standing budget line item. In fact, there would be no dedicated funding for any of the disciplines. In the competitive grants program, the various subjects would be pitted against each other for scarce resources. Such an approach could threaten the ability of schools and districts to provide each student with a well-rounded education, a result that seems to be the exact opposite of the intention of the Obama Administration.
The National Coalition for History has been working closely with civics groups to preserve TAH as an independent program, or at a minimum, to ensure that it receives a dedicated level of funding if it is indeed placed in the Well-Rounded Education program
Democrats and Republicans in both houses have expressed a reluctance to fund programs in fiscal 2012 based on the administration's proposed reorganization of the Department of Education set forth in the "Blueprint for Reform." The preference would be to fund the agency as it currently exists until Congress enacts the education reform legislation.
