Here in Calif. we have had a major lawsuit concerning students paying for anything related to school. No lab fee or fees of any kind allowed.

Same here, Mark

We worked with CS3 for many years. Just got upgraded to 6 last year. Funding comes in unpredicted amounts and intervals. The other question I have is with the district firewalls. We already have major problems accessing online content.

Thanks, plan to do it again this year. We already have the house from last year. Maybe small groups can create other variations on the house with different architectural approaches such as a "green" house made from recycled items.

David, just like the book for Paint the World With Light!

Just something Ihave noticed with a few students. Some of them are not photographing their rooms because they have been displaced and don't have a room. Living at a relative's house and sleeping on the couch, sleeping on an air matresss on the floor--it is the state of the economy right now. So I have to carefully sugggest perhaps taking a picture of where the dog sleeps or where they keep their belongings. I feel for them.

Thanks so much Kris. I just showed my photo students the site today and asked them to write about the photographs. Then we talked aobut their own rooms and how they would photograph them. Ashley's work is very powerful and many discussions were started about the war, families, the types of energy we use, etc.
