To coincide with the start of a new school year and Attendance Awareness Month, the Ad Council and U.S. Army are releasing a series of new public service advertisements (PSAs) addressing the importance of regular school attendance in middle school in order for students to stay on course to graduate high school. Created pro bono by Publicis Kaplan Thaler, the PSAs illustrate the fact that every absence, in any grade, excused or not, can negatively impact a child’s academic achievement and put their high school graduation at risk. To help parents keep track, two tools are being offered on the campaign website: a “Text2Track” mobile SMS program and a redesigned Attendance Calculator.

“Someone special at St. Jude would like to say hello,” this is what Guests at Chili’s® Grill & Bar Highland Springs restaurant heard after choosing to donate to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital® during this year’s Create-A-Pepper campaign. It’s often difficult to connect how an add-on donation at the end of a meal or coloring a pepper while at Chili’s can have an impact on the kids at St. Jude, but over the past 15 years, each donation and pepper has added up to more than $64 million to support St. Jude’s mission of Finding cures. Saving children®.
This year, Chili’s is showing how a little action can create a big impact by continuing to connect those who care with those in need of care. ChiliHeads at Highland Springs in Beaumont, Calif. surprised everyday Guests with a special thank you for their donation to St. Jude. Guests came in expecting a normal dining experience and got something completely different. After a donation, Guests received a video call from a St. Jude survivor who personally shared their story and the difference each donation makes in ensuring that no family ever receives a bill.

i just love this game. its still my fav mp game. but i dont play mp any more. and not just ut04. i get sick of being cheated by zelios type hack whores.. very lil is honest on line. seems to me. the same type zelios junk they all use in ut04 is used in all of the mp games.. they have undetectable- not punk buster nothing stops these folks- they have auto tracking and lock on aim bot- radar- can up player speed how high they jump- armor health- ammo what ever and can make adjustments on the fly while playing.. most turn the junk down to not be noticed- but you always get the noob hacker who will post his dumb ass cheat videos on youtube or where ever and prove the games are cheated.. most do lie and most clans all of it is built off of a hack cheat program. its a trip and it sucks.. so i see no need to play mp any more. but i still like ut04 and add maps and skins etc. and it is a great classic. few games can match its quality and or mass content..
