May 31, 2011: Save services, gas price causes
Save ServicesEffective July 1, early intervention services for children with developmental disabilities including autism may be severely reduced.
For over a year, the departments of Education and Health and Human Services have met with stakeholders to try to correct a poorly designed regulatory change to early intervention services. In September, the Legislature pressured the departments to stay the eligibility criteria for children and maintain service rates until June 30, during which time they were supposed to address the unresolved issues. Sadly, that work did not happen.
As of today, on July 1 this is what will occur across Maine:
• 2,000 plus preschool children with special needs will lose access to the essential early intervention services they need to overcome the challenges of autism, developmental delay, Down syndrome and other developmental disabilities.
• Hundreds of skilled and dedicated teachers, teaching assistants and educational technicians will lose their jobs.
• Dozens of high quality early intervention programs will close.
• Maine will be in violation of federally mandated special education laws.
Two weeks ago the Health and Human Service commissioner proposed a plan to address this looming crisis. It is reasonable and thoughtful. It cannot succeed without the support of the Education Department which has not yet determined its response.
While we recognize the extent of budget issues, we believe we must all stand up for those vulnerable children and families and speak for them and the services on which they rely. The Legislature must not ignore these significant needs. Time is running out for the children and their programs.

Our neighbors need usMainers, America needs your help. A record-breaking spring storm season has decimated entire towns and devastated countless lives. The American Red Cross has launched 29 separate relief operations in 22 states since March 31. Wildfires in Texas, flooding along swollen rivers and the seemingly constant rash of angry tornadoes have led to the deployment of over 9,100 American Red Cross volunteers from all 50 states — including over 20 volunteers and counting from Maine — to help those in need.
Whether it is the tsunami in Japan or the earthquake in Haiti, the Red Cross aids anyone around the world who needs it. The devastation brought by the most recent spring storms has occurred right in our backyard and the response will cost the American Red Cross an estimated $41 million.

The pseudo sciences of sociology, psychology and women studies will hit a blank wall when looking for a job after receiving a undergraduate degree. Guidance councilors are doing a poor job of steering students to where the jobs are.
Councilman Scott Bryan asked Schafer point-blank, "What happens the day after you get hit by a truck?" A somewhat nonplussed Schafer took a beat before responding that she has a city worker who is "very capable of stepping in." Bryan then asked why the

When it comes to giving awards for whatever reason, whether it’s for an accomplishment or for recognition of a particular service or event, award certificates are a great, inexpensive option for all occasions. Being able to buy blank certificates and print them in-house means you can produce awards for unique situations very quickly and with a minimum of expense. However, for a little more money you can put it in a frame and really add to the impressiveness of the award.
Here are some frame ideas that aren’t expensive and ar easy to do:
5. There ar certificate plaques that have a Plexiglas cover that screws into the corners. While this takes a little work and is a bit more expensive, this makes for a very classy award.
While there are other framing options available, these are the most cost effective. Buying frames in bulk from suppliers means you’re cutting out the middle man, like award companies and frame shops and will save lots of money on each award. The least expensive frame above may add a dollar to the cost of the award and even the most expensive option in the above list can still be purchased and put together for under $10.
Putting the award certificate in a frame will add a little to the expense of it, but the impact it has for the person receiving it is well worth it. When the award is framed the odds of it being displayed on a shelf or a wall is almost a certainty which not only reminds the receiver of why they got the award but displays for others their accomplishment. Not only does the great award encourages the recipient to strive for another award, but encourages others to work for them as well. You’ll be amazed how great the certificate looks in a frame and the receiver will appreciate the award even more.
