20243. Magoseph - 9/21/2006 7:13:12 PM The school is one that follows what they call: School-Community Collaboration to Improve the Quality of Life for Urban Youth and Their Families. They are new in the city since the district was divided in smaller ones, mainly to curb inner city violence.
I was their first choice, but couldn’t take the job at the time because Flexy needed me at home, more than he needs me now anyway. The classes are small and the school has only 105 students in the FL department, six classes daily. I don’t know what happened with the two teachers.
20244. arkymalarky - 9/22/2006 1:29:02 AM Sounds like a nice setup, but whether they were fired or quit it's a red flag for anyone looking to fill the position, especially so soon after school has started. At least one would hope they plan to look at what led to such quick turnovers. It's not good for the students or school morale in general in such a small school.
Small school initiatives are getting very popular in urban areas, partly due to lots of supporting research and partly due to support from the Gates Foundation in some of the biggest urban areas. 20245.

Last year, which was their first year, two staff persons did the interviews, now only the principal does them. That’s progress.

I guess Cal could be posting matress ads or worse, so I wish her well on the the Brooks Bros & Overstock.com! 20251. Ulgine Barrows - 9/23/2006 7:25:31 AM Life is sad

~Bob Dylan 20252. alistairConnor - 9/23/2006 9:35:24 AM Cal is a spambot... How fitting!
On serious sites, spambot accounts get disabled pretty quickly. 20253. Magoseph - 9/23/2006 10:16:28 AM I don't know what happened to post 20250, Ulgine, but 20247 and 20248 were deleted.
20254. alistairConnor - 9/23/2006 11:03:15 AM Why? 20255. Magoseph - 9/23/2006 11:27:01 AM Ali, I don’t think we should insult an ex-Motie, at least not in this thread.
I saved the two posts I deleted and sent them to Mote Moderator just in case someone would object and want them somewhere else.
Have you deleted 20250?
20256. judithathome - 9/23/2006 6:06:18 PM Magos, I think you mean 20249 instead of 50.
And I don't know what she said but I trust your judgement. 20257. arkymalarky - 9/23/2006 8:07:44 PM I checked the Moderator's email, but it's strictly up to Mags as threadhost what to do with posts, and we're not going to interject one way or another unless someone is being compromised irl or threeatened. A lot of Moties prefer moving to deleting, but it's up to the thread host.
20258. arkymalarky - 9/23/2006 8:10:50 PM Only threadhosts, moderators, and forum operators have the ability to delete posts. I don't know what happened to 20249. 20259. Magoseph - 9/23/2006 10:06:02 PM A lot of Moties prefer moving to deleting, but it's up to the thread host.
The reason why I didn't move Ulgine’s posts in the Inferno is because there was the possibility that the posts might be brought to the attention of the ex-Motie. 20260. arkymalarky - 9/23/2006 10:29:39 PM It really doesn't matter either way as far as the ROE or FAQ are concerned. It's just whatever you think best as the threadhost. Deletion is fine. 20261. arkymalarky - 9/23/2006 10:30:25 PM We've really been getting the weather here the last couple of days (we needed the rain), but I think it's finally about to get by us. 20262. Jenerator - 9/24/2006 5:11:12 AM Have there been any webfeet sightings? 20263. Ms. No - 9/24/2006 8:44:13 AM Ran into a friend from college I hadn't seen in nearly 12 years --- what a blast. She was singing in the lounge of the boat where I'm working in the theater. Caught a whole set and was thrilled to hear her sing again --- she's got pipes like you wouldn't believe. We sat and chatted for nearly an hour before they kicked us out to close things up.
Have I mentioned how much I'm fucking LOVING being back in Sacramento? There's stress and uncertainty but I'm surrounded by things that give me comfort and also energize me and I'm back in the bosom of my dearest friends.
Hooked up with the Sacramento Leatherworkers Guild this morning purely by chance so I now have people to inspire and teach and encourage me in my leather projects as well.
I was flat on my back for nearly 9 days with a facette joint issue but I've found a wonderful chiropractor and am now walking, sitting, sleeping etc. without pain again.
We find out the sex of the new baby on Monday so I'm waiting for that call from the Brother.
Life is very, very good. ;-> 20264. alistairConnor - 9/24/2006 10:15:08 AM What the heck is a facette joint? Sounds painful. 20265. arkymalarky - 9/24/2006 4:05:58 PM I am SOOOO HAPPY for you NO!!! Sounds like you're having some great times.
