VACANCIES ON STATE TEXTBOOK COMMITTEE
According to an e-mail by Jim Derby which has been much-forwarded in the past few days,

"there are 6 positions available on the STC [State Textbook Committee]: Congressional  District 1 (1x), District 3 (2x), District 5 (1x), District 6 (1x), and Lay Person (1x). The "district " representatives must be active public school teachers.  The Layperson must have children in Oklahoma public schools.  One teacher recently resigned, several terms expired, and the "lay" position had been unfilled.
Friends, here is an opportunity to positively influence the quality of public school education in our State, by finding well-qualified people with a balanced perspective on  educational issues.  Lets identify some good candidates!"

Oklahoma's textbook committee has been the center of controversy for attempting to require a 'disclaimer' - which asserted that evolution is an unproved hypothesis and urged consideration for 'creation science' - to be inserted into biology textbooks.
Derby attributes his information about the vacancies to committee member Lynne Machado.

PARTNERS EXPANDS WEBSITE, GETS NEW ADDRESS
The website of popular Oklahoma City women's club Partners now has it's own domain name. According to Deb Roberts, the site can now be found at www.partners4club.com. Along with it's new address, the site now contains more info about what's going on at the club, including listings of upcoming performers at the popular Sunday night shows at the club (under Interests). Partners, the club, is located at 2805 NW 36th Street, next door to Levi's, just off the corner of 36th and N May.
