      CALL FOR PAPERS FOR A NEW ELECTRONIC JOURNAL

     A few colleagues and I are launching an electronic journal,
which will be called the EDUCATION POLICY ANALYSIS ARCHIVES. It
will be a peer-reviewed journal of papers on all topics connected
with education policy. We wish to invite submissions to be
considered for publication.

     Papers will be published via a LISTSERV to which any person
can subscribe. It will be announced soon. The existing LISTSERV
known as EDPOLYAN which resides at ASUACAD.BITNET will serve as a
companion list for discussion.

     If you or a colleague has a paper that might fit this new
venture, please send a copy to me, Gene Glass, at
ATGVG@ASUACAD.BITNET. Potential contributions should be between 500
and 1,500 lines of text and should follow style guidelines in the
American Psychological Association Publication Manual. Electronic
text should not be greater than 65 characters in width and should,
of course, be in ASCII or TEXT format. Tables should be used
sparingly, and figures should be avoided.

Robin's comment reminds me of my thoughts when reading a piece recently about
the critical role of affect in learning and motivation.  The piece, itself,
was void of qualities of affect.

Now, was you to focus on "to" Luxembourg, "of" Luxembourg, "at, in, from,
by, around, etc" Luxembourg, you could deal in prepositions, and not
propositions, which might be easier, if not funnier.

Odd that there's not one amusing thing in all that information about the
conference on humor.  In the writing in my field. we are trying very hard
to have our medium convey our subject matter.  But , unless my grey cells
are winking out faster than I thought, there's nothin' funny about humour, at
 least from what I could read.

  my boss just brought in the 9 nov 92 issue of federal grants and
contracts weekly.  it describes a BBS operated by the US dept of ed
for rfps and such.  i just tried it out so here is a few pointers not
mentioned in the article i read.

        modem phone:  202-260-9950
             parity:  8N1 (maybe others, did not say).
               baud:  2400 (at least,  nothing stated what was max baud.)
           terminal:  vt100, ansi, and a few others.
                      will query you about display properties if you
                      do choose one of the standard types.
          protocols:  kermit, x+y+zmodems, sealink, ascii.


  it has a pretty lame menu system to navigate around.  in moving around
the menus, they do not give a very good picture of what is available. i
was able to find a file to download which took three trials before their
kermit and mine got in synch.  there is a rudimentary email system to leave
comments to an unnamed sysop.  apparently we will be able to email to other
users on the BBS if we had some way of knowing who they are.  apparently
50 minute online limit.

  i told the sysop to develop an internet tcp/ip bbs so we could telnet or
ftp this information.  or get 800 number.  long distance charges will limit
useage, especially for exploring resources via download.  it would be nice
if the BBS would also permit email into internet for K-12 users who might
not otherwise have access to the realworld network.
                                                   stan

This was posted on misc.legal by Eddie Kovelan  WK00191@WORLDLINK.COM.
I have cross posted without permission.  I also sent a response to
Eddie stating the best solution for all parties is to offer joint
physical custody.

I question how one can "Clinnically" diagnose a parent as
obsessive when you have taken their children away and are
demanding to be paid for it.  My guess, is he just wants
to be a part of his child's life.  Let him.  When given a
fair deal, there is nothing to fight over.

Also, this "fighting" is not hurting his child.  The child
not having two parents is what hurts the child.  Give your
ex a life.  Give him back his parenting of his child.

/* Written 12:45 pm  Dec 21, 1992 by tgray@igc.apc.org in igc:en.energy */

NEW YORK LOOKS AT
'GREEN PRICING'

The New York Public Service Commission is working on a "green
pricing" plan that would allow consumers to choose whether to pay
higher electricity bills for power from clean, renewable energy
sources, according to The Energy Daily.

Several other states, the article said, are considering the
concept, which was developed in detail by David Moscovitz of the
Regulatory Assistance Project in a study commissioned by the World
Resources Institute.

A number of polls and studies have shown that many consumers --
perhaps as many as 40 percent or 50 percent -- are willing to pay
more for power from sources that do not damage the environment,
according to Moscovitz.

New York is looking at a trial implementation of the concept in
connection with its state energy plan, which calls for the state's
utilities to install 300 MW of renewable energy generating capacity
by the year 1998, the article said.

===============================

The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) has authorized me to offer
an electronic edition of its newsletter, _Wind Energy Weekly_, from
which the above article is excerpted, at no cost.

For those of you who have not previously seen excerpts from back issues
on Usenet or Bitnet, the _Weekly_ reports on the outlook for renewable
energy, energy-related environmental issues, and renewable energy
legislation in addition to wind industry trade news.  The electronic
edition normally runs about 10kb in length.

If you would like a free electronic subscription, send me an e-mail
request.  Please include information on your position, organization,
and reason for interest in the publication.

If the _Weekly_ is not quite for you, please pass this message on to
someone else you think might be interested.  Thanks.

A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A SUCCESSFULL 1993!

Here in Austria we enjoy white Christmas with much snow, sunny
weather and wonderful ski-areas.
I only regret, that millions of tourists in our country enjoy it with
us, destroying the nature as much as possible. But as a student of
economics I should understand, that money comes before nature.

Subject:      Re: The EC, an 'Egoistic Community' only?

Aldo de Moor's recent posting aptly expressed what I imagine must be the
anguish many thoughtful residents of the EC are presently feeling. One has
to wonder how much of a "community" the EC really is. And if all those
thinking and feeling Europeans like Aldo have to wait until the
representatives of their respective national governments take action in
the Yugoslavian situation, it looks like they (along with all the innocent
victims of this mindless violence) will wait a long time. So my question
is this:

Is there any non-governmental action Europeans are thinking of taking at
this time? Could such action be organized? What appropriate form could it
take? I would hope that more extensive humanitarian aid to victims could
be undertaken by individual citizens independent of their governments. And
I suspect it already has, but we in North America learn little about that
sort of thing from our media.

In any case, it appears that the governments of existing nation states (or
their collective efforts under a UN umbrella) are unequal to the task. So
are there any municipalities, city councils, village or town councils that
perceive themselves members of the EC to the degree that they want to
respond to the threat to municipalities or towns in Bosnia? In short, is
there a mayor of a city somewhere in the EC willing to organize his
governmental unit for an effort to end the violence, in the absence of
such efforts by his national government?

If there is any such "grass roots" effort going on in the EC, I invite
netters to tell the rest of us.

GOVERNMENT PURCHASING PROJECT
P.O. BOX 19367
WASHINGTON, DC  20036
(202) 387-8034

(c/o ei@igc.apc.org)

The Government Purchasing Project was founded by consumer
advocate Ralph Nader to encourage the U.S. government to use its
power as a consumer to bring environmentally responsible products
into the marketplace.  The project has concentrated on three
areas: solid waste reduction, energy efficiency and pollution
prevention.  As part of its energy efficiency work, the GPP
publishes "Energy Ideas," a monthly newsletter which describes
how public agencies (schools, city halls, police stations and
other facilities) can save money and prevent pollution by
installing energy efficient and renewable energy technologies.
The newsletter has also been posted on EcoNet (see the
<climate.news> conference).

Though the first six issues have concentrated on the available
technologies, I want to focus an issue on the efforts of other
governments to use energy efficient and renewable energy
technologies.  The focus of this issue is not on how the
government can encourage the residential or commercial sectors to
use these technologies, but on how government itself uses these
technologies in its own facilities.  If anyone has information on
such efforts in countries outside of the United States, I would
like to learn more.

Happy Holidays and a healthy New Year.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Kleinman

Subject:      Small wind-turbine "disturbing the peace" -- ?

My son's friend has a small wind-powered generator on his farm, and I
gather some neighbors have complained that it produces noise
pollution and so violates some local ordinance.

I haven't been on his farm, a good distance away, and so don't
know what it sounds like, how loud it is, etc.  But I was hoping
to hear from others who have either found ways to quiet down the
device, if it is obnoxious, or deal with inappropriate
ordinances, if that is where the problem lies.

Composting Toilets/Grey Water Systems?

We have recently purchased a house in rural British Columbia which,
although mostly complete, still needs a sewage system or something
comparable.  I would like to install a composting toilet/grey water
system if at all possible rather than a standard septic system.

I am looking for sources of information about composting toilets
and grey water systems - both technical/cost information as well
as advice or personal experiences with health departments in terms
of replacing a standard septic system with this type of set up.
We have a holdback on the mortgage which requires us to install a
septic system so any specific information about composting toilet/
grey water systems that have successfully met all local building
code/health dept. requirements would be particularly helpful.

I am particularly looking for sources of electronic, snail mail,
or telephone information since I am far from any decent library or
even bookstore...

Your help is appreciated.  I don't read this list regularly so
responses by email would be greatly appreciated.  If I collect
any reasonable quantity of useful information I will be happy to
summarize to the list.

Cheers -

Lelani
