Haunted House was a Success!

I am very pleased to announce that our Howell TSA Haunted House was a complete success! Thanks to everyone who came and helped with this nicely done event! We did so well, that this year's Haunted House earned over $400 more than our Haunted House did last year! Thanks once again to everyone!

TSA Meeting Delayed

Update (10/30/2007): Due to unforeseen issues, the meeting to which this post refers, has again been postponed until Monday November 5 and will take place after school in room B109.

The TSA Meeting, which was originally intended to take place today, was postponed, as many of you already know. However, the meeting has now been set to be held on October 25, in room B109 after school. It is during this meeting that elections for the positions of Historian and Parliamentarian will be held (as these positions were reinstated at our last meeting).

Also, keep in mind that there will be a meeting tomorrow (10/19/2007) for those in the Haunted House Courtyard Committee only, after school in B109.

Why did I make this page black?

Well, it has recently been proven that computer monitors require more energy to produce white displays than black displays, so in an effort to save electrical power, we have decided to make the Howell TSA Chapter site black.
Even though the energy savings are small, it will add up to to a lot of savings over time. Not to mention that black pages also cause less irritation on the eyes.
Other sites on the internet have also taken notice of this, by making their pages black. One such site known as Blackle, features a Google Search with a predominantly black background. And this site has already had an estimated 248,596.864 Watt hours of energy conserved so far, (as of 10/12/2007) and counting!
