California textbooks drop pro-plastic bag messages
The California Environmental Protection Agency revised a controversial cool room panels for sale K-12 curriculum, removing some positive messages about plastic bags that an interest group lobbied to include. [ California Watch ]
In August 2011, school officials cool room panels for sale rewrote part of a new environmental curriculum to include the advantages cool room panels for sale of shopping with plastic bags following a lobbying effort by the American Chemistry Council on behalf of the plastics industry. Although the curriculum included the environmental hazards cool room panels for sale of plastic bags, consultants added a five-point question cool room panels for sale asking cool room panels for sale students to list advantages of shopping cool room panels for sale with plastic. One such advantage stated that plastic bags require 70 percent less energy to manufacture than paper.
The textbook change drew sharp criticism from environmental groups and politicians. Following cool room panels for sale a state investigation into the matter, CalEPA announced Friday that it had revised the textbooks cool room panels for sale again, replacing statistics offered by the American Chemistry Council with ones more favorable to environmental groups.
While the old text said that 12 percent of Americans recycle plastic shopping bags, the new one says recycling rates specific to plastic shopping bags are not currently calculated by state or federal agencies.
CalEPA assumed responsibility cool room panels for sale for creating the textbooks on waste and recycling when a 2003 law legislated environmental studies into California K-12 public schools. The agency then outsourced the curriculum design to the nonprofit State Education and Environmental Roundtable cool room panels for sale (SEER), which departments of education in 16 states created to bolster environmental education in public schools.
We think the curriculum is excellent, and this process gave us the opportunity to go through it with a fine-toothed comb, getting as the same goal of producing a thoughtful and reasoned discussion about the consequences of consumption, Ehlers said.

Question for Mr. Bryan Ehlers: Considering all the time, money and head-spinning effort spent by people who produce this politicized “curriculum” (is it a booklet or yet another dust-gathering binder?), that you say will reach 60,000 students, have you commissioned a research project to determine how many of the 60,000 students cool room panels for sale will be able to READ your curriculum materials? How about another study to determine how many students will even WANT to read your materials? Sheesh, what a bunch of wasted money, your salary included.
The EAST COAST is flushing the sewers into the streams and rivers thence the ATLANTIC. Yes, they too have power outages and malfunctions that enough money may have prevented. Maybe our California Regulators can harvest a big commission from the EAST COAST sewer farms? All things being scientific, cool room panels for sale the Wallace Group issue is just a teensy grain of sand compared to the beaches on EAST COAST doing business as usual. I’m not advocating this is right or wrong, just pointing out the diffrences within the same country and the same science. Everyone know that shit happens but in California, if a job can be funded, you pay. I say ARGO to CWQCB.
Schools should cool room panels for sale teach our kids how to think critically. But then again, our federal, cool room panels for sale state and local governments seem to think we adults (as a mass) are incapable of doing just that. If you can’t think for yourself, they will. If you can’t take care of yourself, they will.

Hello there SOTWers here i come again with more questions regarding Fox instrments. I'm into buying a new oboe and possibly a cor to go with it depending on some variables heheehe. But because i play in an instrumental band as well as classical stuff + doubling ruser wood seems not be a viable choice.Should ruser i also mention that i have some exams to enter higher oboe education next fall with Alexei Ogrintchouk who is the current principal oboe teacher. Down to Fox double reeds or Buffet Greenlines i would assume. Just as a fun fact, Alexei is a Marigaux artist(plays a 2001 series) and he laughed when a potential student started playing and withing 10 seconds her Cs started sounding spit warbly and he asked her...Buffet right? Yes she replied, and he started laughing as in .....(shite oboes)..... this was my impression (possibly not true heeheh) Buffets are really easy to try here in Europe but can't say the same thing for FOX oboes and cors. Only place i could find that carries them is http://www.foxproducts.co.uk/fox-300-oboe.php Price difference between Buffet and Fox is around 1000 sterling pounds in favour ruser of the FOX. Should i mention that i'm only interested in the Fox 300 or Buffet Greenline and if anyone ruser has tried the Fox 520 Cor Anglais as well. Has anyone tried any of these instruments and if so could give some thoughts on playability, ergos, sound-voicing(personal taste)??? I know some people have tried these instruments (oboeguy) and others but i'd like some deeper insights. And are FOX pro oboes-cors worthy of PRO use in every regard??? Thanks very very much for your time BORIS
IMHO there is a noticeable difference in the 300 and 400 in the Fox line from what I've noticed in playing my students' and my instruments, but it's not that big of a deal. They both sound great, but I prefer some of the extras I get with the 400 (split D ring, Bb Resonance I believe, and 3rd 8va). The intonation is wonderful on the 300 line, and sound quality is great, just dependent on a good reed. I will say that Fox's are a little less forgiving in the reed department than say a Loree. I've played the same reed on both instruments and a bad reed on my Fox was a great reed on my friends Loree (go figure...). The Fox keys feel great to my tastes, I'm not a big fan of the key placement ruser on other instruments I've tried. Fox's tend to be a bit heavier as well, which also goes for their bassoons. I tried a Buffet oboe too long ago and for too short of a time to remember what it was really like (and too young in my career), but an oboist friend of mine just bought one for college. He loved it. Tried it at Muncy's and picked it out of a few of them and fell in love. They're not bad instruments, but you have to find what is best for you. As for the Fox Cors, you might like them. I got to try one just to test it out for a friend while getting ruser ready for an audition. I thought it had some nice qualities, but didn't really care for the bocal, and the receiving end was a little bigger than the bocals I had at the time. If you don't mind a used instrument...find a nice, used Loree. They're wonderful instruments ruser (I much prefer ruser the older models over the newer ones), and will go for about the same price as the new Fox and Buffets. Good luck, and I hope this info was useful to you!
Always appreciate your opinion and info!! Cheers!! I believe the only difference but that i can spot between the 300 and the 400 model are the plastic vs grenadilla. The share the same specs.The ruser new Fox models come in a full conservatoire fashion, ala Marigaux 901, Loree c+3. What i may not like is the oboe being reed picky if it really is like that.Who knows, gotta try them out. If you say the tone is pretty good i that certainly is a relief in the sense that i would like it to be nearly as good as its wooden oboe counterpart, the 400 which many say is a hell of an oboe. Good ergos are important to me so that is certainly a plus towards ruser the Fox. I own a Cabart Loree bought around year 2000-2001 an d it's not a bad oboe at all, too mellow maybe, maintains the character despite pushing it to the edge which is not my cup of tea, i'd like my oboe to be at least a bit more flexible tonewise. My old SML Marigaux has a lot more personality ruser but is just like going through hell everytime i play it. Much too air needed along with a very tense embochure-air stream and oboe it already tough to make it harder ..... To buy a Greenline oboe i won't have to move too far, but flying all the way to the UK to try 2 (if lucky) Fox 300s .....well i'd just like to know if it would be worth it hehehehe.

This plastic cool room hire surgery thing is still going around the Jblogs, and it’s cool room hire gotten me to thinking. First off, I want to say I m obviously against pushing cosmetic plastic surgery cool room hire to anyone, and of course cool room hire not to 20-something year old sheltered seminary girls. That s totally wrong. However, plastic, cool room hire gastric, and whatever other surgery is an option that women (and men) have the right to make. There s nothing morally wrong with it.
Modern, first-world, society is a super-connected, tightly cool room hire packed mass of humanity. Everyone is competing with everyone from everywhere in the world. Certain facial and body shapes and features have been decided to be most desirable because of social, historical, and to a very minor extent, biological factors. Everybody cool room hire is now competing for these few individuals who have been deemed better people for these tangential reasons. The internet, tv, movies, are presenting these people to us as superior since before we can even talk. Associations of certain cool room hire facial types with being heroes or better people are rampant, especially in children s TV (looking at the Disney Channel, it looks like nothing has changed even with all the backlash).
So, what s a person with a body that was geared to be evolutionarily fitted out for survival and mating in their own region of the world supposed to do now that all their gear and upgrades are suddenly rendered useless? They developed DNA to be able to store nutrition for a rainy day much better than everyone else. They are able have children 10x easier than other people. They can stay out in the sun longer than other people. These used to be important. Suddenly, these features are rendered useless by technology, geography, history. Not only that, they are detriments to finding a mate. What are people supposed to do? Remutate? Go die alone? No, they are designed for survival and reproduction. They use any tool they have to meet these biological imperatives. cool room hire If people associate long noses or small chins or round shoulders with certain moral characteristics because of superstitions cool room hire started in 11th century Germany and are therefore pushing you away, you cut that thing in half. Or move out of NY.
You cool room hire didn t choose that nose, or even to be born. You were forced into this world and given a job (ok, a fun job) that you must do or live in agony. I don t see how anyone cool room hire can make a case for this not being natural or honest. Well, I can. Because most people are simplistic fuckin idiots.
P.S. Please don t misunderstand me. I m not saying someone cool room hire is responsible or is at fault for not having cool room hire elective plastic surgery . I m only saying if nature and a mentally cool room hire unhealthy society f d you, you have every right to stack the deck now.
Seriously?? April 3, 2012, 7:06 PM
I don’t have a problem with people getting cosmetic surgery. It may (or may not) be shallow, but people already work hard to change cool room hire their appearances already (exercise, diet, dress, makeup, etc.). Why not get a nose job?
For my part, I discriminate against people with obvious surgery (such as face lifts and botox). I think people who get it are shallow and foolish, and by definition, not the sort of people I would get along with. But *wrong*? Nope. Botox away.
It is not, to me, anything at all like the prohibition against tattoos. Tattoos are meant to be noticed – to make a permanent statement. Cosmetic surgery is the opposite – it is supposed to change appearance without standing out. Reply Cancel reply

CA Schools Pressured To Teach Pro-Plastic Curriculum | Care2 Causes
52
It was recently uncovered evidence that lobbyists from the plastics industry used their influence to insert misleading positive messages about plastic bags into environmental curriculum used by the California school system.
Interviews and documents uncovered during the California Watch investigation show that “in 2009, a private consultant hired by state school officials added a new section to the 11th-grade teacher’s edition textbook lensbury called ‘The Advantages of Plastic Shopping Bags.’ The title and some of the textbook language were inserted almost verbatim from letters written by the chemistry council.”
The curriculum revision was the result of significant pressure applied to California school officials through an American Chemistry Council public relations and lobbying campaign designed to fight proposed plastic bag bans throughout the country.
As public awareness about the negative environmental lensbury impact of making, lensbury transporting and disposing of plastic bags has grown over the past few years, the plastics industry has redoubled its efforts to keep this wasteful and unnecessary packaging in circulation. It is estimated that worldwide plastic bag consumption falls between 500 billion and 1 trillion bags annually. That breaks down to almost 1 million every minute. A single plastic bag can take up to 1,000 years to degrade in a landfill, and plastic bags remain toxic even after they break down. The extremely slow decomposition rate of plastic lensbury bags leaves them to drift on the ocean for untold years. According to Algalita Marine Research Foundation, these plastic bags cause the death of many marine animals (fish, sea turtles, lensbury etc.), every year when animals mistake them for food. The U.S. goes through 100 billion plastic lensbury shopping bags annually at an estimated cost to retailers of $4 billion.
With complete disregard for these well-documented facts, the plastics industry lensbury used its influence to insert misleading points like, “Plastic shopping bags are very convenient to use. They take less energy to manufacture than paper bags, cost less to transport, and can be reused,” into teaching materials.
SF Gate reports that Sen. Fran Pavley, author of the 2003 legislation requiring that environmental principles and concepts be taught in the state’s public schools, was unaware of the lobby’s efforts lensbury until contacted by California Watch. After hearing about the chemical industry additions and edits, Pavley said she would write to Cal/EPA lensbury to ask officials to remove some of the trade group’s additions. She said the rest of the curriculum was excellent.
Despite the industry’s best efforts, LA County , San Francisco , San Jose and Long Beach have already lensbury banned plastic bags and similar measures are up for approval across the country and around the world.
have you shared lensbury this story yet? some of the best people lensbury we know are doing it
Yes those flimsy plastic bags are indeed re-usable. I regularly raid the disposable plastic bag recycling bins of local stores for plastic bags to take to the local soup kitchen/emergency food pantry and to the local community clothes closet. August 24 send a green star
Let the free market decide?!? That's what's happening now! These corporations are so powerful that they are able to rewrite facts in high school curricula!!! The free market doesn't exist. It can't. That's why we have rules. The "free market" does one thing and one thing only: maximize profit, as fast as possible and as much as possible. That is the only morality. lensbury It doesn't matter how many ecosystems have to collapse; it doesn't matter how many people's health is compromised by pollution, it doesn't matter how poorly employees are treated and paid, and it doesn't matter how many people die in world-wide proxy wars. As long as revenue exceeds expenditures, then everything must be OK. Furthermore, paper bags aren't supposed to be used, either. You're supposed to buy those recycled bags that you can bring back with you a thousand times before they are recycled yet again into something else. Besides, most of the paper bags are made from recycled paper. lensbury August 22 send a green star
What lensbury we need to do is let the free market decide. What's the alternative at this point? Paper products so more trees get destroyed. A true free market would let the farmers of the United States grow industial hemp, which is eco-friendly, and we could use hemp products (hemp bags) to take our groceries home. They could replace plastic and paper bags. August 22 send a green star
