| Final IDEA 2004 regs published--finally MothWrangler 02:20:44 |
| | The U.S. Dept. of Education has finally published the much delayed
regulations for IDEA 2004.
The final regs are scheduled to be printed in the Federal Register on
Aug. 14.
If you are interested and can't wait until they are printed you can
download a copy at: http://www.ed.gov/policy/speced/guid/idea/idea2004.html.
Plan on spending quite a bit of time reading them. The regulations
themselves are 374 pages, plus there are two preambles totaling 1244
pages, and five Appendices (90 pages) for a total of over 1,708 pages.

| OT: ( And old news ? ) July hottest month in Netherlands in 300 years Raving Loonie 02:11:01 |
| | Tue Jul 25, 7:59 AM ET
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - July 2006 is on track to be the hottest month in
the Netherlands since temperatures were first measured in 1706, the
Dutch meteorological institute KNMI said on Tuesday.
Average daily temperatures in the first 24 days of July were a record
of 22.3 degrees Celsius (72.14F) compared with the previous record of
21.4 degrees in July 1994 and normal average temperatures of 17.4, the
KNMI said.
"July 2006 is the hottest month ever," it said in a statement.
Dutch temperature records, launched in the beginning of the 18th
century, are among the oldest in the world. Methodical
thermometer-based records began on a more global basis around 1850.
Dutch meteorologists say they cannot make a direct link between global
warming and the heatwave in Europe, although the KNMI has forecast a
clear warming trend in the next 50 years and an increasing number of
heatwaves.
Temperatures in the Netherlands rose as high as 36-37 degrees last
week, when two people died during a walking event which was later
canceled.

| Feedback on adderall dosage Tb 01:58:31 |
| | I posted a brief history (see adderall and abuse) yesterday of my
experience with adderall. I was looking to see if I could get any
feedback from anyone who has known, or knows of anyone that was ever
prescibed a dosage of 270mg per day (3 x 90mg), or anything close to
that. Most of the doctors I spoke to that were willing to comment at
all, said that 270mg per day is a little more than (4) times the
recommended maximum. Can anybody give me some feedback on this?

I didn't see that particular message until you replied to it as my
brilliant free news server filters out quite a bit of that stuff.

Wed Aug 2, 1:09 PM ET
WARSAW (AFP) - Poland has experienced its hottest July since official
records began 227 years ago, with average mid-afternoon temperatures
hitting 30 degrees Celsius (86 Fahrenheit), the Meteorological
Institute in Warsaw said.
"The level of heat actually experienced by Poles was up to 50 degrees
C, taking into account the air temperature, windspeed, humidity levels
and sunshine," Michal Kowalewski, a weather expert at the institute,
told AFP Wednesday.
In Warsaw, the average temperature in July measured over 24 hours was
23.5 degrees C, or 5.5 degrees C higher than normal.
Temperatures peaked on July 21, with the mercury climbing to 33.9
degrees C in the capital and a sweltering 35.1 degrees C in the
southern city of Krakow, according to the Meteorological Institute.
The heatwave has hit both farmers and city dwellers. "Fruit is half the
usual size because of drought, while people are less alert and tire
more easily," said Kowalewski.

| ASAD quote 1/24/03 (repeat) MothWrangler 23:35:25 |
| | There is a time in every man's education when he arrives at the
conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he
must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion; that though
the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come
to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is
given to him to till.

| | From the backstabbing co-worker to the meddling sister-in-law, you are
in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life. You
can either give negativity power over your life or you can choose
happiness instead. Take control and choose to focus on what is
important in your life. Those who cannot live fully often become
destroyers of life.

| Intro Truly Trudy 08:01:41 |
| | Hello, all. I've been lurking off and on for the last year or so. Since I hvae a new med-man and
am now using generic adderall, I thought I'd finally pop my head up over the horizon.
After twice having my complaints about attention written off as due to depression and/or multiple
sclerosis, last summer I finally got a consult with a psychologist not affiliated with my
neurologist... and lo and behold, without the pre-existing bias, the testing came back positive for
ADHD, inattentive type.
I started grad school this fall, but I didn't have my "ducks in a row" so to speak. Took all
incompletes and will now be taking a semester off to catch up. I suspect most of my interactions
here will be around getting schoolwork done, though I'm very keen on learning to better organise
myself in time and space in everyday life as well.
