Tumwater’s team of Carter Gilmour and James Adams took first place in Public Forum De- bate. Anthony Rock and Katie Shaw took second place in Public Forum Debate. Jack Johnson placed third in Student Congress. Congratulations to Jack Johnson and Ryan Knight who took first place in Public Forum Debate at the University of Puget Sound the first weekend in January, after eight grueling rounds! The team of Anthony Rock and Devin Dieckman and another team of Stanley Walker and Thomas Morrissey also made final rounds, and placed 3rd and 4th. Stanley Walker placed lst in Impromptu Speaking, a major accomplishment, beating Dino Rossi’s son in the final round! The competition was tough as the tournament had approximately forty schools and five-hundred students, including teams from Canada, so the competition was tough. Kudos to our hard working, hard thinking DebateTeam. Congratulations to Jonathan Lathrop for winning the Voice of Democracy essay contest for our local VFW. He now moves on to the state competition. State winners go to nationals in Washington D.C. Last year Sarah Olive McStay, from THS came in second nationally and received a sizeable scholarship. Good luck Jonathan! “At Tumwater High School we are throwing away thousands of dollars worth of recycling per month,” states THS student Anna Burt. “My mission is to change that, by starting a program here at THS called Food to Flowers.” Anna has been heading the charge by meeting regularly with our librarian Roz Thompson and Thurston County Food to Flowers representative Peter Guttchen. “With our months of planning and researching, we are finally prepared for the kick-off day (Friday, February 10th) that will change THS forever! Thanks to our custodian Rick Eberle, there will be a “recycling assembly line” in our lunch room (commons) for students to properly recycle. Our classrooms will have custom painted recycling cans, plus extra recycling containers will be placed in the halls. The emphasis on recycling is going to be greatly increased! On Friday, February 10th during Core/Flex we will have a fun, energetic assembly that will include a video made by Connor Sigman. That same day during lunches, the program will be up and running. Without all our volunteers who helped, this could never have happened. I am looking forward to kicking this organization off and in the long run be saving our school thousands of dollars.” Thank you Anna and volunteers! 3 PARENT/STUDENT INFORMATION In spring 2011, Superintendent Randy Dorn’s proposed legislation on math (House Bill 1412) and science (House Bill 1410) was signed into law, changing the math and science assessment graduation requirements. The law has the following impact for students: ・ Students in the class of 2012 are not affected by this legislation. Those students can meet the math requirement by passing one state math exam or by earning two credits of math after 10th grade. Those students shall take only one end-of- course (EOC) exam per testing administration. ・ Students in the classes of 2013 and 2014 are required to pass only one math EOC exam and are no longer required to pass a science exam. Those students shall only take one math exam each testing administration. Their first math retake opportunity will be in winter 2012. ・ Beginning with the class of 2015, students are required to pass two math EOCs and the biology EOC. Those students can take two math EOC exams (algebra 1 and geometry, or the integrated math equivalents) per testing administration and will first take the biology EOC in spring 2012 if in the class. Important Science Note: Students in the class of 2014 (current 10th graders) are required to take the biology EOC in spring 2012 whether they are in the course or not.

  • Seattle a Digital Community Still in Transition Jessica Durkin, Tom Glaisyer, and Kara Hadge, Media Policy Initiative June 2010, Release 2.0
    New America Foundation An Information Community Case Study: Seattle A digital community still in transition Jessica Durkin, Tom Glaisyer, and Kara Hadge, Media Policy Initiative June 2010, Release 2.0 Seattle, Washington, could be considered a city singularly suited to develop a healthy democracy in the digital age. The city government, citizens and business have created a productive environment for the next generation of information-sharing and community engagement. Years of economic growth and relative prosperity have fostered new, superior practices in news and information. Yet, losing a major print newspaper, as Seattle did when The Seattle Post-Intelligencer closed, adversely affects a community, by leaving it with one less place to provide public service journalism, stories about people and general community updates. In parallel, Seattle has been at the center of an explosion of alternative news outlets, especially online, which has created a critical mass of information portals for geographic and social communities. As the Knight Report, Informing Communities: Sustaining Democracy in a Digital Age, highlights, it is important to understand that there are three important elements to be considered as we analyze media and democracy in the 21st century: • availability of relevant and credible information to all Americans and their communities; • capacity of individuals to engage with information; and • individual engagement with information and the public life of the community. However, despite the relative vibrancy of the media scene, and even with all its demographic and other advantages, it is unclear how much of this innovation is sustainable. The local web is littered with websites that are no longer updated, and few of the startups boast anything like the journalistic firepower or profitability of the papers of the past.

  • Thurston County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan LEP Plan | Page 1 | November 2018 Thurston County Comprehensive Emergenc
    Thurston County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan Thurston County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan ESF 15 Annex - Appendix A Limited English Proficiency (LEP) Emergency Communications Plan I. INTRODUCTION A. Purpose To ensure that sufficient assets are mobilized during emergencies or disasters to provide accurate, coordinated, and timely life safety information to impacted individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP). B. Scope This Plan is an attachment to the Thurston County Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan (CEMP), including but not limited to Emergency Support Function 2 (ESF-2), Communication, Information, and Warning Systems; ESF-6, Mass Care, Emergency Assistance, Housing and Human Services; ESF-8, Public Health and Medical Services; and ESF-15, External Affairs. This Plan does not relieve local city, town and tribal emergency management organizations or other agencies of their responsibility to communicate and provide information on the emergency or disaster to their residents including LEP populations during times of emergency or disaster. C. Legal Authority This Plan meets requirements of Washington State Substitute Senate Bill (SSB) 5046, which passed the legislature in 2017 and was codified in chapter 38.52 RCW. This Plan will assist with addressing requirements of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 concerning access to services for people with LEP, and Executive Order 13166, Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited English Proficiency, which directs recipients of federal funding to take reasonable steps to ensure that people with LEP have meaningful access to their programs and activities. D. Process to Develop Plan This Plan was developed by Thurston County Emergency Management with assistance from a contractor and input from the Thurston County Emergency Management Council (EMC) and Disaster Assistance Council (DAC).

  • Pax 117 2.12-10.12-2016
    PAX 117 2.12-10.12-2016 Deltagare: BN Bo Nensen SDRIQ SW Stefan Wikander Perseus Efter att inte har besökt Parka på 6 år, beslöt BN och jag att på kort varsel åka upp en vecka i början av december 2016. BOS med hjälp hade under hösten ordnat med nya antenner. Detta efter att flera antenner förstörts av skogsavverkning. När vi kommit upp var det bara att koppla in sin utrustning och köra igång. Redan första natten var det bra fart på bandet och det fortsatte nästan hela veckan. Det var väl bara den sista dagen som var klart sämre. NA hördes från kväll till eftermiddan de flesta dygn. Bäst var de på morgnarna och på förmiddagarna. Inte så mycket på eftermiddagarna. Det var oftast breda konds. Det gjorde att det speciellt på nätterna var svårt att få ut annat än dominanterna. Rätt som det var så dök det ändå upp perioder med mera selektiva konds. Oftast upptäcktes dessa selektivare toppar vid genomlyssning av inspelningarna. Den 3:e, 5:e och 7:e på förmiddagarna var det under korta perioder tex intressanta konds mot Kalifonien. Det var första gången för mig med Perseus i Parka. Dessutom med Jaguar installerat som utvecklats av finska dx-are för just mellanvåg och då speciellt NA. Jag gillar verkligen Jaguar. Ofta kan det vara svårt att välja rätt antenn när det är bredare konds. Det var främst den ostligare NA tråden som användes. Någon gång VK och AK/HI trådarna. Asienantennen och LA antennerna användes ännu mera sparsamt och därför blev det knappt något från Asien, Pacific eller LA loggat.
