Heated DPS meeting prompts video that looks like start of 2013 DPS elections

  • 1 Comments
  • by: John Tzekara

Last Thursday, Denver Public Schools Board President Mary Seawell and a majority of the DPS board meeting passed a controversial vote to colocate Strive HS (formerly West Denver Prep) at North High School.  Every vote relating to the colocation passed 4-3.

I watched part of the meeting online, and dozens of North parents and community members spoke out against the idea, while reform groups such as A+ came to speak in favor.  Contentious decisions aren’t anything new to DPS, but Mary Seawell, in her new role as President of the Board, responded by lashing out against the community members who came to speak.

At one point Board Member Jeannie Kaplan attempted to propose a compromise, but Seawell quickly cut off conversation.

This morning, a video is making its way around facebook and emails from members of the “Choose North Now” group, which looks a lot like the first volley of the 2013 DPS election cycle.  

If Seawell’s “Shame on you” speech and this response video are any indicator, 2013 is going to be a long, heated campaign that will make 2011 campaigns look downright friendly by comparison.

One thought on “Heated DPS meeting prompts video that looks like start of 2013 DPS elections

  1. Nike Air Max is a shoe by the company Nike that was introduced in 1987 as the first example of Air Max-branded technologies. The Nike Air Max shoe uses a large air cushioning unit which is visible at the side of the midsole in most models. Especially sought after models include the 1987 (Air Max I), 1990 (Air Max III), 1991 (Air Max 91), 1993, 1995, 1997, and to an extent, 2003. The 1993 model was the first to have the fully visible heel Air unit that was visible in the back as well as on the sides, and the 1995 model was the first to feature visible forefoot Air. The 1997 model was the first to include a full length Air bag. The Beatles’ song “Revolution” was used in a television commercial to promote the shoe. It was the first and only time that a song performed by the Beatles was used in a TV ad.

    The shoes have always been high tech for their time so runners have always worn them, but they are equally valuable as a casual shoe. They are generally fairly comfortable and the designs and colors are very inspired in some cases. The 1995 model was extremely popular for a long time and saw many color ways introduced. Its popularity has waned but many people still love the shoe. Originally it was met with some skepticism due to its suede construction, high price tag and neon accent color. International collectors quickly came to love the shoe and eventually it became popular in the USA as well. Nike max 1!

    Different types of Air Max cushioning include “Air Max2” which doesn’t have the “holes” in the cushioning unit and is of high pressure, “Tube Air” which is visible in several small circles on the midsole of the shoe, “Total Air” which is basically just another word for full Air Max cushioning, “Tuned Air,” which is a system of individual pods supposedly “tuned” to different areas of the foot. There was also “180 Air in the early 1990s which was visible through the bottom of the shoe (although smaller portions of Air units are visible through the bottom of many Air Max models) and another type of Air cushioning is the low profile and very responsive “Zoom Air.” Air Max cushioning has been used in shoes for almost all sports by now including basketball, cross training, golf, casual shoes, sandals, tennis, etc; however the “Nike Air Max” is always a running shoe. An example of a basketball shoe would be “Air Max Up-tempo.” On the 21st January 2006 Nike launched the Air Max 360. A revolutionary shoes design that utilized ‘Max Air’ through out the shoes midsole. Traditionally, running shoes have used cushioning systems combined with foam midsoles. Foam midsoles generally last for about 500 miles before their shock absorbing properties deteriorate. The use of ‘360’ of air cushioning ensures the shoes longevity. This is the logical conclusion to the Nike Air Max 95 story.

    From entertainment to healthy, Nike has changed their way to lead the functions of sport shoes. Just make money is not the final target of Nike; find the new ways of innovation is the first target for Nike air max to become winner in the sport world.

    From the original of nike air max зимние, it was thirty years after. Nike’s technology has changed day by day. The classic type is Nike shock technology. All road cars have shock absorbers meant to give a smooth ride. Nike took this concept and applied shock-absorber-like columns on the heel area of their shoes featuring this technology. This gives the runner something very similar to an independent suspension of a road car. The effect is more traction and cushioning that adapts to where it is needed.

    Long period development of Nike Company produced several of shoes for customers to choose. Air Max 90 is the first shoe that Nike become popular, Nike running is the other way for Nike to expand their ways from concern runner’s life. Then Nike has developed Nike basketball shoes and Nike Football Shoes as its biggest sales to attractive customers. However, with the equal competitors – Adidas, Nike knows the method to make itself outstanding – Innovation new products with high technology.

    Yet, after year’s development, Nike air max купить shoes have changed their mind to new technology. From traditional technology, the Nike Shox NZ 2.0 SI is the symbol of new shoes. The Nike Shox NZ 2.0 SI is a very comfortable shoe, but it also is very stylish. The Black and Sprinter Green color combo is one of the greatest color schemes ever in a Nike Shoe. Simply yet bold, futuristic yet old school. The Nike Shocks NZ 2.0 SI is great shoe for heavy runners and walkers. If you are a big man, the Nike Shox NZ 2.0 SI will work a lot better than the Nike Max Airs. If you have never worn Nike Shox before, then you will need to know that the shoe is not as comfortable right out of the box. You must “break your Shox in”. Once the Shox are broke in, they tend to be more comfortable and durable for heavier people.

    Even so Nike has never given up their way to Nike Air Max shoes, from Air Jordan shoes become popular, and Nike has introduced new pair each year. The Nike Air Max Turbulence+ 16 is another show from Nike that not only looks great, but is very function able for use as an athletic shoe. The Nike Air Max Turbulence+ 16 running shoe is great not only for runners, but also walkers who want a heavily cushioned shoe. If you walk a lot and tend to experience a lot of “shin splints” then give the Nike Air Max Turbulence+ 16 a try for a few weeks. The heavy cushioning allows many walkers the ability to rid themselves of the painful shin splints. Most of Nike shoes is benefit, healthy for human body, with the resist of confident, high technology Nike shoes will help you find the way to best.
