IP "page invalid" troubleshooting for Blogger

I was doing some research into why we were getting the error message "The page you requested is not valid" while trying to create blogs in IP 10.  Here's what I found:


If you look at the third bullet point above, you will notice that there is a limit to the number of blogs that can be created daily from one network.  This looks like the likely culprit from the other day - too many people creating blogs at one time on the school network.

Confirmation of my suspicions:


This particular website suggested waiting 24-48 hours before trying again to create a blog on the same network.  Hopefully we will be able to continue with no problems in our next IP 10 class.

Anne of Green Gables rehearsal tonight

Anne of Green Gables rehearsals begin tonight!  We had our first read through last Thursday and now we are starting to rehearse the music and stage scenes.  I will be away this evening but Miss Perkins will be directing the music rehearsals in the music room ("Gee I'm Glad I'm No One Else But Me" and "The Facts" from 7-8pm, and "We Clearly Requested a Boy" from 8-9pm).  Jan will be directing Scene 1, which tonight will be held in the dining room (below the auditorium, across from the Home Ec cooking lab).

To get us all into the spirit of Prince Edward Island and Anne of Green Gables, here are a few pictures I found online.  Looks like the "carrots" moment is popular amongst Anne followers! :)
