What Do Teachers Make?

The Following was sent to us by a dedicated 'local' reader. Thanks.
Winter is Here!


 A great answer by someone who is obviously a great teacher
FOOD FOR THOUGHT!
What Do Teachers Make?
The dinner guests were sitting around the table discussing life.

One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem with education. He argued, "What's a kid going to learn from someone who decided his best option in life was to become a teacher?" 
To stress his point he said to another guest; "You're a teacher, Bonnie. Be honest. What do you make?" 
Bonnie, who had a reputation for honesty and frankness replied,
"You want to know what I make? (She paused for a second, then began...)
"Well, I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could.
I make a C+ feel like the Congressional Medal of Honor winner.
I make kids sit through 40 minutes of class time when their parents can't make them sit for 5 without an I Pod, Game Cube or movie rental.
You want to know what I make? (She paused again and looked at each and every person at the table)
I make kids wonder.
I make them question.
I make them apologize and mean it.
I make them have respect and take responsibility for their actions.
I teach them to write and then I make them write. Keyboarding isn't everything.
I make them read, read, read.
I make them show all their work in math. They use their God given brain, not the man-made calculator.
I make my students from other countries learn everything they need to know about English while preserving their unique cultural identity.
I make my classroom a place where all my students feel safe.
I make my students stand, placing their hand over their heart to say the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag, One Nation Under God, because we live in the United States of America a nation under God. A nation from it's beginning has had the Hand of God upon it.
Finally,

I make them understand that if they use the gifts they were given, work hard, and follow their hearts, they can succeed in life.
 (Bonnie paused one last time and then continued.)
Then, when people try to judge me by what I make, with me knowing money isn't everything, I can hold my head up high and pay no attention because they are ignorant." ..

You want to know what I make?
 I MAKE A DIFFERENCE. What do you make Mr. CEO?"
His jaw dropped, he went silent.
THIS IS WORTH SENDING TO EVERY TEACHER, EVERY CEO, EVERY PERSON YOU KNOW.
 Even all your personal teachers like mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, coaches and your spiritual leaders/teachers-Pastors/Priests/Clergy

We could use your readers help‏


Two young members of the Lisbon Community, Noah Austin and Nicholas Welsh, are part of a team that have entered a contest to win team tickets to the Boston Bruins New Year's Day at Fenway Park.  We're asking for your help to send them.
 
You can vote ONCE A DAY until December 10th.
 
Thank you,
Traci Austin
and the Lewiston Jr. Maineiacs Mite Travel Team

Goldy oldie!!‏







'Someone asked the other day, 'What was your favorite fast food when you were growing up?'   'We didn't have fast food when I was growing up,' I informed him. 'All the food was slow.'
'C'mon, seriously. Where did you eat?'

'It was a place called 'at home,'' I explained. ! 'Mom cooked every day and when Dad got home from work, we sat down together at the dining room table, and if I didn't like what she put on my plate I was allowed to sit there until I did like it.'


By this time, the kid was laughing so hard I was afraid he was going to suffer serious internal damage, so I didn't tell him the part about how I had to have permission to leave the table. But here are some other things I would have told him about my childhood if I figured his system could have handled it :


Some parents NEVER! owned their own house, wore Levis, set foot on a golf course, traveled out of the country or had a credit card. In their later years they had something called a revolving charge card. The card was good only at Sears Roebuck. Or maybe it was Sears & Roebuck. Either way, there is no Roebuck anymore. Maybe he died.


My parents never drove me to soccer practice. This was mostly because we never had heard of soccer. I had a bicycle that weighed probably 50 pounds, and only had one speed, (slow). We didn't have a television in our house until I was 5. It was, of course, black and white,
I was 13 before I tasted my first pizza, it was called 'pizza pie.' When I bit into it, I burned the roof of my mouth and the cheese slid off, swung down, plastered itself against my chin and burned that, too. It's still the best pizza I ever had.


We didn't have a car until I was 4. It was an old black Dodge.


I never had a telephone in my room. The only phone in the house was in the living room and it was on a party line. Before you could dial, you had to listen and make sure some people you didn't know weren't already using the line.  


Pizzas were not delivered to our home. But milk was.  


All newspapers were delivered by boys and all boys delivered newspapers my brother delivered a newspaper, six days a week. It cost 7 cents a paper, of which he got to keep 2 cents. He had to get up at 6 am every morning. On Saturday, he had to collect the 42 cents from his customers. His favorite customers were the ones who gave him 50 cents and told him to keep the change. His least favorite customers were the ones who seemed to never be home on collection day.  
Movie stars kissed with their mouths shut. At least, they did in the movies. Touching someone else's tongue with yours was called French kissing and they didn't do that in movies. I don't know what they did in French movies. French movies were dirty and we weren't allowed to see them
If you grew up in a generation before there was fast food, you may want to share some of these memories with your children or grandchildren. Just don't blame me if they bust a gut laughing.
Growing up isn't what it used to be, is it?


MEMORIES from a friend : My Dad is cleaning out my grandmother's house (she died in December) and he brought me an old Royal Crown Cola bottle. In the bottle top was a stopper with a bunch of holes in it. I knew immediately what it was, but my daughter had no idea. She thought they had tried to make it a salt shaker or something. I knew it as the bottle that sat on the end of the ironing board to 'sprinkle' clothes with because we didn't have steam irons. Man, I am old. 
How many do you remember?
Head lights dimmer switches on the floor.
Ignition switches on the dashboard.
Heaters mounted on the inside of the fire wall.
Real ice boxes.
Pant leg clips for bicycles without chain guards.
Soldering irons you heat on a gas burner.
Using hand signals for c ars without turn signals.
Older Than Dirt Quiz : Count all the ones that you remember not the ones you were told about Ratings at the bottom.  
1 Blackjack chewing gum
2. Wax Coke-shaped bottles with colored sugar water
3. Candy cigarettes
4. Soda pop machines that dispensed glass bottles
5. Coffee shops or diners with tableside juke boxes 6 . Home milk delivery in glass bottles with cardboard stoppers
7. Party lines
8. Newsreels before the movie
9. P.F. Flyers
10. Butch wax
11. TV test patterns that came on at night after the last show and were there until TV shows started again in the morning. (there were only 3 channels)
12. Peashooters
13. Howdy Doody
14.. 45 RPM records
15. S& H greenstamps
16 Hi-fi's
17. Metal ice trays with lever
18. Mimeograph paper
19 Blue flashbulb
20.. Packards
21. Roller skate keys
22. Cork popguns
23. Drive-ins
24. Studebakers
25. Wash tub wringers
If you remembered 0-5 = You're still young
If you remembered 6-10 = You are getting older
If you remembered 11-15 = Don't tell your age,
If you remembered 16-25 = You're older than dirt!
I might be older than dirt but those memories are the best part of my life.
Don't forget to pass this along!!
Especially to all your really OLD friends...!

The Lisbon Junior Athletic League, a non-profit, is beginning to bring the fields at the old Lisbon Elementary School back to a quality playing complex for the youth of Lisbon.  Assisting in this effort are the students at Lewiston Regional Technical Center program, who are constructing two dugouts on the right field at the old Lisbon Elementary School site as part of their construction studies.  Leading this charge is instructor Jason Merritt of LRTC..  It's important to note that these students are building the entire project with hand tools over the last several weeks.

Stay tuned for another story to follow.

Come and See For Yourselves!


PWS MIDDLE SCHOOL
Presents
“SUSPEND THE PRINCIPAL”
By PWS Student Reporter, Connor Craig


 Lisbon - The Sugg Middle School Parent Action Group (PAG) is hosting a fundraiser called Suspend the Principal, during the PAG sponsored December 11th dance at the school. The goal of the event is to tape new PWS Principal, Jeff Ramich, to the gym wall.   “I feel tremendously nervous,” commented Principal Ramich.  How does he feel about the project?  Principal Ramich shared his thoughts as to whether or not this fundraiser will be a success.  “I am sure it will be a success because there are lots of students who want to tape me to a wall.”

PAG President Kathi Yergin she stated that “if enough tickets are sold, PAG will be sure to buy Gorilla tape to make sure Principal Ramich sticks well.”  “Principal Ramich is a little nervous and he will stick to the wall.” Mrs. Yergin shared “The Parent Action Group is a small group of parents that are working very hard to support existing programs and non budgeted projects at the school.”

Suspend the Principal tickets are $1.00 for an arm length of tape.  There is no limit to the amount of tape one can buy.  Tickets may by purchased by contacting Kathi Yergin at kril62@yahoo.com, or at the school office.  All PWS students will also be selling tickets.

It Is Your Freedom That Is At Stake.

Every few days I run into hunters stopping in for a cup of hot coffee at Bootleggers in the center of Lisbon village. I have not met one of these men yet, who were not true sportsmen. As one gentleman told me the other day, he was within a few feet of a Bobcat while deer hunting in Sabattus, but did not shoot, because he didn't kill anything he couldn't eat. That is the mark of a true sportsman. 


I wonder just how many of these hunters I speak with know anything at all about U. S. House Bill HR45, introduced on January 6, 2009, shortly before the new president was sworn into office, and filed without any other congressional sponsor of the bill by Bobby Lee Rush, congressman from president Obama's old first congressional district on Chicago's south side.


HR45 is currently being held in the House judiciary committee and will probably not come out of committee until after the Obama Care bill is finalized. HR45 along with HR1, sponsored by Congressman David Obey, (D) of Wisconsin, and already enacted into law, will serve notice to all sportsmen and the the public in general who owns any kind of gun, what Attorney General Eric Holder under the direction of president Obama has in store for you.


HR45, if enacted into law, would require all owners of firearms to register for a federal firearms license. (More under the table taxes!) The bill would make it a criminal act not to register as an owner of a firearm, and subject to criminal penalty. This would inevitably lead to a automatic search and seizure public policy, with or without a home owners consent. If this does not alarm you that you are about to lose your rights under the second amendment of the U. S. constitution, which was recently upheld by the U. S. Supreme Court, then try on for size what sections 13101 through 13434 of HR1, which is already law, has to offer you.


These sections of HR1 sets up the infrastructure to computerize all medical records of ALL Americans in a government coordinated database, which will contain psychiatric treatment as well. These records will include drugs you may now be taking. Why is this worrisome? Under the NICS Improvement Act, 150,000 U. S. veterans have already been unfairly stripped of their right to have firearms by the Obama administration. Those rights were removed without a court hearing. Hence ... eventually, we all will be susceptible to this kind tactic.


We have already witnessed what kind of public regard Eric Holder and the Obama administration have for the American voter. If you doubt it ..... view the following short video clips:


"Security Patrols" to enforce who is allowed to vote.


Black Panthers attack voters at Philadelphia  poll stations


 Obama Missouri "Truth Squads"


Notice ... in none of these video clips was a gun necessary to do the dirty work shown!


What else does Attorney General Eric Holder, under president Obama's direction have in store for us?
As you have read in the news, in the U. S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, five of the world's most hated terrorists, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarek bin Attash, Ramzi bin al-Shibh, Ali Abdul-Aziz Ali and Mustafa Ahmed al-Hawsawi, all of whom were involved in the 9/11 plot that killed over 3000 people. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the master mind of the plot has already confessed back in 2003 to being the key terrorist.


All of these murderous thugs will be tried as a U. S. citizen, even though none have ever set a foot on U. S. soil until they are brought here from their Guantanamo Bay military detention. Now ... listen up .. carefully .... no CIA agent has ever testified in a civilian court of law about their overseas activity. Under an oath they take when becoming CIA agents, they cannot do so. The defense lawyers of these thugs, being paid by you, the American tax payer, will want the agents who got the confessions, for instance, from Mohammend, to testify as to how they obtained that information, and exactly what secret information was obtained. 


As you can see .... Attorney General Eric Holder, under the watchful eye of Barack Hussein Obama, has put in place the UNBELIEVABLE situation that these murderous terrorist may WALK out of a U. S. courtroom ... FREE MEN because of lack of evidence.


As a concerned American .... keep your eye on every move Eric Holder makes! Regardless of your party affiliation or political persuasion, it is your freedom that is at stake.

Around Lisbon Today





Shop For Christmas Where It Counts For More

 The following submitted by J.J.


Sears -  Christmas shopping has already started

I know I needed this reminder since Sears isn't always my first choice. Amazing when you think of how long the war has lasted and they haven't withdrawn from their commitment. Could we each buy at least one thing at Sears this year? 


How does Sears treat its employees who are called up for military duty? By law, they are required to hold their jobs open and available, but nothing more. Usually, people take a big pay cut and lose benefits as a result of being called up. 


Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and maintaining all benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs, for all called up reservist employees for up to two years. 


I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and should be recognized for its contribution. I suggest we all shop at Sears, and be sure to find a manager to tell them why we are there so the company gets the positive reinforcement it well deserves. 


Pass it on.


Decided to check this before I sent it forward. So I sent the following e-mail to the Sears Customer Service Department: 


I received this e-mail and I would like to know if it is true. If it is, the Internet may have just become one very good source of advertisement for your company! . I know I would go out of my way to buy products from Sears instead of another store for a like item, even if it's cheaper at that store. 


This is their answer to my e-mail:


Dear Customer:


Thank you for contacting Sears.The information is factual. We appreciate your positive feedback.


Sears regards service to our country as one of greatest sacrifices our young men and women can make. We are happy to do our part to lessen the burden they bear at this time. 


Bill Thorn
Sears Customer Care

webcenter@sears. com 
1-800-349-4358


Please pass this on to all your friends. Sears needs to be recognized for this outstanding contribution and we need to show them as Americans, we do appreciate what they are doing for our military!!!


In God We Trust

The Wreaths Across America Story




This 2009 addition to the Wreaths Across America story shares how the tradition of placing wreaths to honor our veterans during the holidays has grown into a national movement, with over 350 participating locations, thousands of volunteers, and 105,000+ wreaths placed in 2008 to Remember, Honor, and Teach our children  the value of freedom, of service and sacrifices made by our veterans and their families. For more information visit WreathsAcrossAmerica.org http://www.wreathsacrossamerica.org/






December 12, 2009 – national Wreaths Across America event to honor veterans
at Arlington National Cemetery and over 400 participating locations nationwide.


Beginning on Sunday December 6th, over 150,000 donated Christmas Wreaths
from the State of Maine will begin their journey to over 400 state and national
veterans cemeteries all across the Country as part of the annual Wreaths Across
America project.


Escorted by the Patriot Guard Riders and other support groups, the wreaths will
make their 18th annual trek to Arlington National Cemetery, where they will make
their eventual home adorning the graves of our veterans – a solemn tribute to
those who serve and those who made the ultimate sacrifice.


The Wreaths Across America™ story began over 18 years ago when the
Worcester Wreath Company from Harrington, Maine initiated a tradition of
donating and placing wreaths on the headstones of our Nation’s fallen heroes at
Arlington National Cemetery. Recognition of the service and sacrifice of our
veterans, and their families, is especially poignant during the traditional holiday
season.


Worcester Wreath Company continues to be a major supporter of the project,
donating over 25,000 total wreaths in 2008. Over 100,000 wreaths will be
sponsored by individuals, businesses, and groups from communities Nation-wide.
Wreaths will be placed in all 50 states from Maine to Alaska and Hawaii, at
several locations is Iraq, and at 24 national cemeteries on foreign soil.
For people who wish to support the project, wreath sponsorships are available
online. A complete list of participating locations is available on the website at
