It costs you nothing but a few seconds of your time.

Please help Terra Nova High School Band win $50,000 to replace our 36 year old uniforms! 


One person can become 25 votes by texting EVERY DAY Nov 24 thru Dec 19; and can double it to 50 votes if voting ON-LINE as well as by TEXT, every day.


The uniforms that T.N. Band currently wears were purchased in 1976, when Jimmy Carter was president and VHS VCRs were just invented!  


Through the years, the uniforms have been carefully cared for and have served Terra Nova Band well.  However, kids are very active in these uniforms, and band uniforms are often considered "old" at the 10 year mark!  These are well past their prime and are getting beyond further repair.


Please, please help!


Thank you!

11--Number of trophies won.
5--Number of those trophies that were 1st place


Here's the video to their First Place performance of “The Fall of Troy” at Cupertino Tournament of Bands 10/13/2012

VOTING for new uniforms will only take a few seconds of your time. 


The Terra Nova Band would *love* to not be wearing uniforms from the days when the original Rocky movie came out!!  


Wearing 36 year old clothing?  Gross!!


Please help Terra Nova Win!


THANK YOU!

I can start with the comments on the Theravance drug, fluticasone fluroate - the active moiety inRead More this compound is the same, fluticasone (proprionate) that has been marketed by GSK for the same indication for approximately 25 years. Indeed, that patent is so old, and the drug has such a proven track record for safety and efficacy, that the patent has expired and there are generic versions available. There is also in implicit assumption by the author that the only reason that the FDA will approve medications in a short time span is because they are for 'life-or-limb' or unmet serious medical need. This is just not the case - regulators in many countries, including the FDA in the USA, may give accelerated approval to a product, where the safety and tolerability of a product is equivalent to a similar active agent which has already been approved. I suspect this is the case for fluticasone fluroate - but I am not privy to the details of the regulatory filing. I note that none of the companies mentioned here, nor the FDA, has provided input to this article. The journalism in this article smacks of someone trying to make a name for themselves quickly by scaring uneducated and/or anxious people. The science is just plain flawed.

Please tell us in what ways it is ill-informed

Ill-informed, sensationalist rubbish.

I think many of us can relate! 10 kids, huh? I was the oldest of 9, so sort of understand. MyRead More family grew up in Pacifica, & we rode over the slide every weekend when we went to the HMB airport to tend to my father's airplanes. I drove on it once, during driver's ed in high school, scary! I have an old home movie clip from 1966, going over the slide. Very overexposed, but you can still see parts of the slide in it. More recently, took 2 videos of our drive over the slide, North & south views. Going North: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb8NKnu9Gvw Going South: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rlN_g2LeE8
