Filed Under Travel | Comments Off
Mike Tramp asked:
Would you enjoy cheap holidays to Bermuda? The thing about vacationing in Bermuda is that you can do and see so many different things. Whether you want to spend a day sightseeing or a day in the museums, you will have an enjoyable holiday experience. The restaurants and the hotels are designed to make everyone as comfortable as possible. You will find that that people are helpful and very hospitable. If you are staying in Hamilton, you will find so many things to do. Your fist stop should be the Crystal Caves.
The caves are the best place to see something out of a movie. It is unbelievable to see such beauty that was made by nature. The Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute is another fascinating place to see. You will see things that you have only imagined from seeing television documentaries. If you spend enough time here, you will come away with more knowledge about the underwater life. Another nice place to see is the Devil’s Hole Aquarium. It is filled with creatures from the underwater world. You are going to find that your cheap holidays to Bermuda, Hamilton that is, will not disappoint you or the family.
Fort Hamilton is a beautiful and historical site that is surrounded by beautiful gardens with prisons and tunnel inside the fortress. If you love the outdoors and nature, you will enjoy a day at the Gilbert Nature Reserve. You will see an untouched forest coving about five acres of land. The area is great for bird watching as well as a picnic lunch. The Bermuda Historical Society Museum is a great place to see exhibits and get a taste of Bermuda’s history. Cheap holidays to Bermuda should include some relaxation and fun time.
Enjoy a day of golf at Ocean View Golf Course or a day relaxing in the sun on the beach at Shelly Bay Beach. The white sandy beaches have a playground for kids to play and close by vendors for treats. Bermuda is a great place to plan a family vacation. The Caribbean warmth and the warm soothing breeze that you feel from the ocean will bring you a sense of peace. After a day at the beach, you are going top want a nice tasty dinner. The restaurants are always serving cuisine from different countries. After a nice sunny day and a delightful dinner, you can take in some of the nightlife.
The time you spend in Bermuda on your cheap holiday will not be complete until you spend at least one night out on the town. No matter where you stay, the clubs and lounges will be close by. You can experience the music, dancing and just sit around watching how the residents have fun after a long day. After a night of fun, you might want to enjoy a day relaxing by the swimming pool and enjoying things the hotels have to offer. Many of the hotels have fitness rooms, spa, restaurants, and bars for guests to enjoy.

Excelling Arizona Schools Named for 2004-2005 School Year
Filed Under Education | Comments Off
Patricia Hawke asked:
As with many school systems across the United States, Arizona Schools have several measurement and accountability programs in place to improve student scholastic achievement. One accountability program for the Arizona schools is the AZ LEARNS achievement program. AZ LEARNS holds all Arizona schools accountable for the performance of their students and teachers, measuring performance over several years versus a snapshot one-year measurement. The AZ LEARNS evaluation is based upon four established measurements already required by the Arizona schools. They are:
• AIMS Scores — Measures reading, language arts and mathematics for elementary schools; and reading, writing and mathematics for high schools.
• MAP — Measure of Academic Progress for schools, where students scores for AIMS and SATs are compared to the state average.
• Graduation/Dropout Rates — Used for the high schools.
• AYP — Adequate Yearly Progress measures student proficiency in the state’s academic standards of reading and mathematics over time.
The AZ LEARNS program for the Arizona schools categorizes schools on a graded scale as either:
• Failing to meet academic standards,
• Underperforming,
• Performing,
• Highly Performing, or
• Excelling.
The Arizona schools for the 2004-2005 school year that were named Excelling are (listed by district/charter and school):

R. M. Smythe & Company to Offer Part 13 of the Schingoethe Obsolete Currency Collection, December 12-13, 2007
Filed Under Online Promotion | Comments Off
Phil Davies asked:
Manhattan, New York - December 4, 2007 – R. M. Smythe & Company (http://www.Smytheonline.com) to offer Part 13 of the Schingoethe obsolete currency collection December 12-13, 2007. The sale will contain 1162 lots of obsolete notes to be auctioned over 2 days.
When it came to coins and paper money Herb Schingoethe collected almost everything, but it was obsolete currency that his wife Martha liked to collect most of all. She fell in love with the incredible diversity of issuers, and with the artistic quality of the vignettes on the notes. She enjoyed meeting and dealing with the people who bought and and sold obsolete currency. She had the skills and the energy required to organize and maintain everything they acquired. Her husband Herb had the passion to collect on a grand scale. Together they created what is now known as the Schingoethe collection.
From December 12-13, 2007 R. M. Smythe & Co. will be offering part 13 of this groundbreaking collection, with exceptional rarities and choice notes from many diverse series’. This sale features a section of Illinois notes from Herb’s core Illinois collection that were treasured by Herb and Martha. This sale also contains notes from the North, South and Midwest, including many pieces from Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Ohio and Wisconsin. Many well vignetted and choice proof notes that Herb and Martha prized are also featured.
Some of the more interesting notes being offered at this sale include:
Lot # 426 MA. Lynn, Nantucket, Newburyport, Pittsfield, Plymouth, Roxbury, Salem, S. Boston, S. Reading, Stockbridge, Uxbridge, Ware, Westfield, Worcester. Assortment of notes, most G-Fine. At least one altered, and many with color and nice vignettes. Some missing corners, tears, repairs, red, green overprints, Denominations: $1 - $5 & a $10. [19] Estimate $1000 - $1500
Lot # 436 MI. Brest. Monroe & Ypsilanti Railroad Co. $1. Nov. 1, 1838. (L-BRE-2-1 (Lee Plate Note); Haxby MI-90 G2; Bowen 1). Black. Train at wharf, center; statue of Washington at left, 1 below; Justice seated at right. The only denomination of this series not plated in either Haxby or Bowen, this $1 rarity will not go unnoticed by Michigan specialists. This example is from the collection of Dr. Wallace Lee, who was known for assembling rarity and quality. The fact that this note grades on the low end is a testament to its rarity. Follow the example of Dr. Lee and don’t let grade stand in the way of acquiring what is perhaps the only note available. Fair, numerous taped splits. Estimate $1000 - $1200
Lot # 491 MI. Saranac. A Pair of G. A. Cotton Scrip. 1) 10¢. Oct. 27, 1862. (L-SAR-1-1 Lee Plate Note; Bowen 1). Green. Fine, with some age toning, trimmed close at sides. 2) 25¢. Oct. 27, 1862. (L-SAR-1-2 (Lee Plate Note); Bowen 2). Green. Blue on white. Typeset; both of similar design, with location and date at the center, flanked by denomination in bold font. An extraordinary pair of Michigan scrip, these two notes represent all the listed numbers in Bowen. Both are properly issued, signed by Gilbert A. Cotton, owner of a general store in Saranac in Ionia County. Cotton was likely also the postmaster of this location as both pieces bear a Post Office CDS (Circular Date Stamp) on the verso, with the same date as printed on the face of the notes. From the Dr. Lee Collection, these pieces virtually scream of their utter rarity. Estimate $1,000-1,500
Lot # 502 MN. Shakopee. Farmers Bank. $1. Sept. 1, 1864. (MN-175 G2; Rockholt 1). Unissued remainder. Young farm woman feeding chickens, center; eagle with outstretched wings, top right; farmer carrying corn, lower right. On this bank, we can only remember handling a low grade $2 note. Machine No.2333/A. This is one serial number off the Rockholt Plate Note. There were a few sheets at one time, but the census reflects just over twenty notes on the bank. Great style with the title at the left end. ABN. Extremely Fine, spurious signatures in black pen. Estimate $1000 - $2000
Lot # 106 IL. Griggsville. Bank of Pike County. $5. 1850s. (IL-355 G8a). Red 5. Proof on India paper. Haxby Plate Note. Indian chief. State arms. Cherubs hoist wheat into the clouds. DW. AU, two hinges on back. Estimate $500 - $1000

Manhattan, New York - December 4, 2007 – R. M. Smythe & Company (http://www.Smytheonline.com) to offer Part 13 of the Schingoethe obsolete currency collection December 12-13, 2007. The sale will contain 1162 lots of obsolete notes to be auctioned over 2 days.
When it came to coins and paper money Herb Schingoethe collected almost everything, but it was obsolete currency that his wife Martha liked to collect most of all. She fell in love with the incredible diversity of issuers, and with the artistic quality of the vignettes on the notes. She enjoyed meeting and dealing with the people who bought and and sold obsolete currency. She had the skills and the energy required to organize and maintain everything they acquired. Her husband Herb had the passion to collect on a grand scale. Together they created what is now known as the Schingoethe collection.
From December 12-13, 2007 R. M. Smythe & Co. will be offering part 13 of this groundbreaking collection, with exceptional rarities and choice notes from many diverse series’. This sale features a section of Illinois notes from Herb’s core Illinois collection that were treasured by Herb and Martha. This sale also contains notes from the North, South and Midwest, including many pieces from Connecticut, Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Ohio and Wisconsin. Many well vignetted and choice proof notes that Herb and Martha prized are also featured.
Some of the more interesting notes being offered at this sale include:
Lot # 426 MA. Lynn, Nantucket, Newburyport, Pittsfield, Plymouth, Roxbury, Salem, S. Boston, S. Reading, Stockbridge, Uxbridge, Ware, Westfield, Worcester. Assortment of notes, most G-Fine. At least one altered, and many with color and nice vignettes. Some missing corners, tears, repairs, red, green overprints, Denominations: $1 - $5 & a $10. [19] Estimate $1000 - $1500
Lot # 436 MI. Brest. Monroe & Ypsilanti Railroad Co. $1. Nov. 1, 1838. (L-BRE-2-1 (Lee Plate Note); Haxby MI-90 G2; Bowen 1). Black. Train at wharf, center; statue of Washington at left, 1 below; Justice seated at right. The only denomination of this series not plated in either Haxby or Bowen, this $1 rarity will not go unnoticed by Michigan specialists. This example is from the collection of Dr. Wallace Lee, who was known for assembling rarity and quality. The fact that this note grades on the low end is a testament to its rarity. Follow the example of Dr. Lee and don’t let grade stand in the way of acquiring what is perhaps the only note available. Fair, numerous taped splits. Estimate $1000 - $1200
Lot # 491 MI. Saranac. A Pair of G. A. Cotton Scrip. 1) 10¢. Oct. 27, 1862. (L-SAR-1-1 Lee Plate Note; Bowen 1). Green. Fine, with some age toning, trimmed close at sides. 2) 25¢. Oct. 27, 1862. (L-SAR-1-2 (Lee Plate Note); Bowen 2). Green. Blue on white. Typeset; both of similar design, with location and date at the center, flanked by denomination in bold font. An extraordinary pair of Michigan scrip, these two notes represent all the listed numbers in Bowen. Both are properly issued, signed by Gilbert A. Cotton, owner of a general store in Saranac in Ionia County. Cotton was likely also the postmaster of this location as both pieces bear a Post Office CDS (Circular Date Stamp) on the verso, with the same date as printed on the face of the notes. From the Dr. Lee Collection, these pieces virtually scream of their utter rarity. Estimate $1,000-1,500
Lot # 502 MN. Shakopee. Farmers Bank. $1. Sept. 1, 1864. (MN-175 G2; Rockholt 1). Unissued remainder. Young farm woman feeding chickens, center; eagle with outstretched wings, top right; farmer carrying corn, lower right. On this bank, we can only remember handling a low grade $2 note. Machine No.2333/A. This is one serial number off the Rockholt Plate Note. There were a few sheets at one time, but the census reflects just over twenty notes on the bank. Great style with the title at the left end. ABN. Extremely Fine, spurious signatures in black pen. Estimate $1000 - $2000
Lot # 106 IL. Griggsville. Bank of Pike County. $5. 1850s. (IL-355 G8a). Red 5. Proof on India paper. Haxby Plate Note. Indian chief. State arms. Cherubs hoist wheat into the clouds. DW. AU, two hinges on back. Estimate $500 - $1000

Prime East Greenwich Properties
Filed Under Business | Comments Off
Bill Gilbert asked:
Right at the center Rhode Island is the county of East Greenwich, the eight oldest town in the state and home to the early American patriots. Established as a town in the 1600s, East Greenwich stands on the land originally owned by Pequot Indians and bought by King Charles II. Bordered from the area of the Narragansett Bay to the hills that roll to the town boundary, the East Greenwich County was originally farmland that grew into a commercial center. It is known for its harbor, which from past to present, have provided refuge for local fishermen and trade ships.
Far from the farming town that it was before, East Greenwich today is unmistakably a center for trade and commerce in this area of Rhode Island. Textile manufacturing, machinery, and shipbuilding are among the chief industries that flourish in this area. Throughout the centuries, settlers from other towns, states, and countries have left a trail of historic buildings that tourists and residents can enjoy today. Named after the Greenwich County of Kent in England, East Greenwich is valued for its well-maintained National Historic District. The county stretches to the southwest where it meets Exeter, to the south by North Kingstown, to the west by West Greenwich, to the north by West Warwick, Warwick, and Coventry, and to the southeast by Potowomut.
East Greenwich county is also proud to be called the Birthplace of the Navy. After reaching a resolution, it was on the 12th of June 1775 when Governor Nicholas Cooke gave Captain Abraham Whipple orders to be the commodore of the government’s armed vessels and commander of the Sloop Katy. Other town in the United States has claims to the title of Birthplace of the Navy, but historians would point out that there has been no other town with an early account of naval activity and government intervention into naval affairs than East Greenwich. No wonder East Greenwich has very good harbors and has a state-of-the-art shipbuilding industry.
If you want a place that is rich with history and has nice places to go to, East Greenwich might just be the right spot for the property you dream of. Speaking of nice places to go, one such place would be at the East Greenwich waterfront, a popular place to dine in Rhode Island. Here, many restaurants, clubs, and bars particularly Harborside Lobstermania, line the streets. Aside from a public dock good for fishing and eating and even dock, with a small beach, East Greenwich has also the East Greenwich Cove, where boats are parked and offer a different dining experience. Of course, the beaches across from the coast along the Goddard Memorial State Park, should be missed. You are set for the finest beaches in the area with a just a ride from East Greenwich Cove.
If you’re looking for property in this part of the United States or if you are in Rhode Island yourself, you can check the line of available real estates in the area. From townhouses to luxury homes with a bit of history, East Greenwich has many things to offer. East Greenwich may just be the place that will meet your need.
