Comments on: Oregon to mandate 180 school days per year? http://www.rickscheibner.net/uncategorized/oregon-to-mandate-180-school-days-per-year/ Education -- Music -- Family -- Life Tue, 02 Dec 2008 15:44:05 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: Rick http://www.rickscheibner.net/uncategorized/oregon-to-mandate-180-school-days-per-year/#comment-798 Rick Thu, 29 Mar 2007 14:37:33 +0000 http://www.rickscheibner.net/2007/03/27/oregon-to-mandate-180-school-days-per-year/#comment-798 Thanks for the comment, Matt. I don't get the Oregonian, but this article came through on my Google news alert that I subscribe to. One of those categories is "Oregon school." I think the EO might have carried that one last night also. I didn't realize that ScribeFire was putting the "Powered by" link at the bottom...I'd had that option unchecked, so I'm not sure what happened there. Anyway, it's a great extension for Firefox. I also use the Microsoft Live Writer desktop software when I'm at home. Both make posting to your blog a breeze, but I happen to prefer the Microsoft one most of the time. And both are a huge improvement over the WordPress "Write" page. Both have an option to let you automatically insert your Technorati tags. Thanks for the comment, Matt.

I don't get the Oregonian, and my local paper didn't run this story. Amazing! It seems like an obvious connection to me: more money for your education system = better education system. It's old logic. Anyway, thanks to you, I continued the rant on my blog. Thanks again. By the way, how do you like ScribeFire? I've never tried it. Also, what do you do to add technorati tags? Is that a plugin for WordPress? Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I don’t get the Oregonian, and my local paper didn’t run this story. Amazing!

Anyway, thanks to you, I continued the rant on my blog. Thanks again.

By the way, how do you like ScribeFire? I’ve never tried it. Also, what do you do to add technorati tags? Is that a plugin for WordPress?
