Avery is in a contest to find the “cutest kid in Ventura.” Checkout her picture here. If you want to vote they only ask for name and address and stuff but all you need to do is fake an e-mail address and name. Avery’s pic is on the second page half way down to the right. It is not the best picture of Avery but I guess it is cute anyway…
From Dan’s Blog:
If anyone wants to make an automated script or hack the site, I wouldn’t be against it.
I know that donating blood is important but so is organ donation. I know this can be a touchy subject but you don’t need your “stuff” when you’re dead! (IMHO)
Please make a commitment to continue helping patients in Southern California. To schedule your next appointment to donate blood, call 1.800.GIVE.LIFE or visit www.givelife.org. To sign up to be an organ and/or tissue donor, visit www.donatelifecalifornia.org or check ‘Yes’ at the DMV when you renew your driver’s license.
There is a school district up north that is getting rid of homework all together. Sound good? You know, so that kids can have more time to do afterschool stuff- sports and clubs.
I wonder what the outcome will be of this “no homework” policy. Not usre if I would want my kid to be in the test group for this experiment.
In Ventura the average homework time is supposed to be 10 minutes for each grade the kids is in; a first grader should have 10 minutes of homework, a second grader 2o minutes and so on.
