My seven-year-old daughter and I went to Party @ Display and Costume yesterday to buy a birthday gift for her friend, Tait. Tait loves Dachshunds and there is a Webkinz Dachshund that we were looking for. Party @ Display and Costume has one of the best collections of Webkinz in North Seattle. This is important to know if you have young children or grandchildren… We found the Dachshund and we had some fun checking out all of the holiday displays as well.
Party @ Display and Costume was also a contributor to the 2008 Pinehurst Summer Social. I have become one of those iPhone users I used to hate. I can’t believe how I got through life before this. The new 2.2 update is available for download today. I walk and bus as much as possible. Given that, I can’t wait to try out these three new functions: Google Street View – Street View takes you on a virtual walking tour: Navigate street-level photographs of places you’ve located in Maps.
Public Transit and Walking Directions – Get walking directions, find public transit schedules, check fares, and estimate your travel time.
Share Location – Tap the Share Location button to send an email that includes a Google Maps URL.

  Here.Thanks for the tip, Joe. Dear Seattle Public Schools families and community members: Thank you for your interest in Seattle Public Schools’ work on capacity management and building closures. On October 29, the School Board voted unanimously to accelerate the capacity management process, which is one of the five key focus areas for this year as we implement Excellence for All, our Strategic Plan. School Board Opinion Editorial. On Monday, November 3, the Seattle Times published an opinion editorial by the School Board that sets out the context for capacity management and building closures. Guidelines and Timeline. At the School Board’s meeting on November 12, Superintendent Goodloe-Johnson announced the guidelines and foundational questions that will be applied as buildings are considered for closure or repurposing. Guidelines include building condition, lot size, cost per pupil, proximity and academic performance. These guidelines will be evaluated in the context of several foundational questions that focus on opportunities to strengthen programs and increase equity of access to programs across the district. The timeline for the building closure process was also confirmed. Preliminary recommendations will be presented by the Superintendent and discussed by the board at a 6:00 p.m. School Board Workshop at the John Stanford Center. The School Board is scheduled to vote on the final recommendation on January 29. Updated FAQ. The Frequently Asked Questions document has been updated to include additional questions asked by staff and community. We will continue to add information throughout the process. The Capacity Management Web site has also been reorganized to include “Quick Links” and additional information. Community Meeting Dates. Two community meetings will provide an opportunity to consult with community members on the preliminary recommendations. The first meeting will be held on Thursday, December 4, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the John Stanford Center for Educational Excellence, 2445 3rd Avenue South. A second meeting will be held on Saturday, December 6, 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Filipino Hall, 5740 Martin Luther King Way. How to Be Involved. Family and community feedback is vital as we move forward with capacity management and building closures. There are many ways to get information and to be involved. These include email, web postings, e-newsletters, community meetings, public hearings, and public testimony at School Board meetings. Thank you for your interest. Office of Communications According to the Seattle Times and the Seattle PI. The Puetz Golf site on Aurora in the Haller Lake neighborhood has been dropped from consideration as a new jail site. What is Jackson Park Trail? What are these meetings? When is it and where will it be held? Learn more about Friends of Jackson Park Trail:
Pinehurst can have a community representative on the Seattle Police Department North Precinct Advisory Council. This is a great opportunity to understand what is happening and to help advocate for Pinehurst. Time commitment would be about 4 hours per month and would mainly involve attending the North Precinct Advisory Council meetings which are the first Wednesday of each month from 7 to 8:30 pm. In light of recent neighborhood events and an increased interest in crime prevention, it would be valuable for all of us as a community to have a volunteer step up to take on this leadership role. Please let me know if you are interested in this. |
