CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The red collection bins are hard to miss, they are scattered all over Charlotte and North Carolina. The bins belong to Better World Recycling, which takes your donated clothing and shoes and sells them in third world countries.
At the time of our first story last February, Better World was a "for profit" company and their spokesperson, Shawn Lange, told NBC Charlotte "all of our bins are straightforward and say we are a recycling company."
But the state of North Carolina sees it differently and is investigating and cracking down on Better World, saying they are in violation of the state's charitable solicitation act which clearly says bins from a for profit company must be labeled to say "this is not a charity."
N.C.G.S. §13IF-10 states as follows:
"Any person who is not a charitable organization or sponsor and who places or maintains a collection receptacle in public view for the purpose of collecting donated clothing, household items, and other items for resale shall display on all sides of each collection receptacle a permanent sign or label with the phone number or electronic mail address of a contactor the person and the following statement: "This is not a charity. Donations made here support a for-profit business and are not tax deductible." The sign or label shall be placed on all sides of the collection receptacle with the required information printed in letters that are no less than three inches in height and no less than one-half inch in width and in a color that contrasts with the color of the collection receptacle so that the sign or label is clearly visible ... "
Shawn Lange of Better World told NBC Charlotte in February "…we're in the process of making it more clear as to what type of organization we are to avoid anyone being misled."
Bill McGinty: "Are you doing that because you want to do it?"
Shawn: "Ah, yeah."
After putting Better World on notice in February, and even giving them an extension, the Charitable Solicitation Licensing Division of the North Carolina Department of the Secretary of State followed up and rechecked bins in March, but didn't see labels. The state rechecked bins again in April, and again, no labels.
The state fined Better World Recycling in Charlotte $21,000 and demanded a complete list of bin locations in North Carolina. Better World told the state what they told NBC Charlotte, that they "intended to get their collection receptacles in compliance," but when the state checked the bins again, the CSL reported "they failed to display the mandatory language".
NBC Charlotte went back to the Better World Offices in Charlotte to ask them why they haven't complied with the CSL order. Management there wouldn't talk to us on camera but said again they are working on it and have even labeled some bins here in Charlotte. When NBC Charlotte asked the locations of those bins in Charlotte, they wouldn't tell me where they are.
The Secretary of State's Office also reports that Better World made "misrepresentations" on its website in February saying they had "strategic partnerships" with charities like Habitat for Humanity and the Salvation Army when they in fact did not. Those charities also confirmed for NBC Charlotte that they never had any type of partnership or relationship with Better World Recycling. Better World has since taken those logos off of its website, http://www.betterworldrecycling.org/.
Better World Recycling has since filed documentation with the state to change the corporate status of their business from "for profit" to "non-profit".
The state told NBC Charlotte it has not yet licensed them as a charity. The state says Better World Recycling is appealing the fines. The Secretary of State's Office also told NBC Charlotte that other companies likewise have donation bins in the Charlotte area and they are being looked at, too, but so far, no official investigations have been opened into those organizations.

Clearly align job behaviors and competencies with company strategy.
Effective performance reviews are integrated with the company's needs. As the company's needs and goals change, jobs change with them, and existing job descriptions may no longer fit. That creates an opportunity to retool the whole performance management system and align roles with the company's strategies and evolving culture, according to Cheryl Jekiel, vice president of human resources for the Flying Food Group. Company leaders and the HR team can work together to redesign roles, incorporating new behaviors and capabilities.
As they tie roles to the company's business strategy, senior managers should define what they expect from themselves, then determine what competencies and behaviors they need from mid-level managers and employees. For every level in the organization, roles will include some organization-wide behaviors and knowledge. Likewise, every role in the company requires some job-specific skills. Functional departments like accounting, purchasing, and manufacturing will also require professional competencies.
Once roles are defined, it is time to document job content. More than just traditional job descriptions, this documentation includes the sorts of behaviors that support the company's culture. Jekiel recommends starting by constructing a job content matrix for each role in the organization. The observable behaviors and activities expected in performing the job are listed. Next to each, the knowledge required to successfully perform each activity is identified. Then measurable and visible results of each activity are documented. Defining behaviors and measurable results gives everyone a basis for accountability. Knowledge and experience gaps often cause perceived performance problems. Assessing what knowledge is required for each job may reveal some training needs.
An important tool for management to provide is a results-based visual management system of measurement and accountability. If key performance targets for such indicators as production volume, defect rates and material consumption are always visible to the employees responsible for achieving them, they never lose mindfulness of them. And when actual performance is updated on an ongoing basis, either automatically or by being written on a whiteboard, everyone knows whether things are going according to plan or if help from an employee's supervisor or manager is needed. Constant monitoring and problem solving keep the manager and employee communicating about results, accountability, performance and skills, reducing the need for a painful annual review. Developing a culture of learning, not blaming, makes people more comfortable with having metrics related to their jobs in full view.
It may take years to change role definition and documentation throughout the organization. To maintain momentum, a deliberate plan with skill building along the way will make a stronger, leaner and more capable company.

But don't confuse this place with "just somewhere to eat," as it's verging on a living museum. Other than the usual wall plaques, photographs, and its homage to celebrities who happen to have sat on or near a Harley-Davidson, it mimics the environment of the Hard Rock Café. The music was loud enough to assault the eardrums of a "non-biker," but possibly not able to compete with the roar of an over-revved bike on an open road. But then I spotted a reference to "Easy Rider," possibly one of my favourite soundtracks of all time, and I succumbed.
I remembered by father's love of his motorbike and suggested to my cousin that it was an early Harley (not sure if it was, but it made for a good story, and he was suitably impressed). Now I could relax and take in the ambiance. I no longer found the music too loud–I was becoming a bike fanatic. I observed a massive conveyor belt that runs through the length and height of the café. Strapped to this beast of a belt were seven of the latest models of Harley-Davidson motorcycles that were viewable from almost every nook and cranny in the place. They were in pristine condition, and even though I couldn't enthuse about the engine, I did recognise them as fine mechanical pieces almost resembling works of art.
Talking of pieces of artwork, there are dozens of intricately painted "gas tanks" displayed throughout the café, all signed by a celebrity from the rock or film world. Some of them were amazingly beautiful and worth looking at in detail. Hanging from the ceiling is the world's heaviest American flag. The staff claims that it weighs over 7 tons, and it's made from tens of thousand of chain links. That's bikers for you!
But wait a minute, we were hungry – we came in here to eat! There are a couple of dozen beers to choose from (now there's a serious choice to begin with!) and a really extensive menu, from large juicy steaks to "grown-up sandwiches," with french fries, fajitas, pies packed with meat, pizzas, and chicken wings. In short, whatever you want is here, and the quality and the quantity is spot on. If you fancy a gooey desert (if you've got space), they only "do" large portions. Sharing a main course and a pudding means that you can enjoy it all without feeling "stuffed".
Don't be shy, give it a whirl–this restaurant is entertaining and does its job.

As dry as it's been, the scattered lightning flashes and trailing rumble of thunder were enough to make one hopeful. Anticipating that rain was soon to follow, I grabbed my camera and captured a few shots of the rolling clouds and diffused lightning patterns, in the skys looking south, over Morton. Photos captures with a Canon Rebel T2i, ASA 400, 18mm lens at f/3.5, 1 second exposure hand held.
All Show, No Go. Lightning, but no rain.

The second component of the Auxiliary's mission is more personal in nature. The Auxiliary has ancillary groups of Auxilians, called "twigs", that concentrate their efforts on making each patient's stay a little brighter by providing special handmade crafts and other "little touches" that demonstrate the compassion and caring of these dedicated individuals.
Whether you have one hour a day or one month a year, your time and talents are needed for the Auxiliary of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital. Become a part of this remarkable group that works in so many innovative ways for the benefit of one of the nation's leading academic health centers, Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital.

Syrian violence contributed to a sharp rise in the number of journalists killed for their work in 2012, as did a series of murders in Somalia. The dead include a record proportion of journalists who worked online. A CPJ special report
Syrian violence contributed to a sharp rise in the number of journalists killed for their work in 2012, as did a series of murders in Somalia. The dead include a record proportion of journalists who worked online. A CPJ special report
Murder is the leading cause of work-related deaths among journalists worldwide--and this year was no exception. But the death toll in 2012 continued a recent shift in the nature of journalist fatalities worldwide. More journalists were killed in combat situations in 2012 than in any year since 1992, when CPJ began keeping detailed records.
Almost half of the 67 journalists killed worldwide in 2012 were targeted and murdered for their work, research by the Committee to Protect Journalists shows. The vast majority covered politics. Many also reported on war, human rights, and crime. In almost half of these cases, political groups are the suspected source of fire. There has been no justice in a single one of these deaths.
New York, December 17, 2012--Iraqi security forces shut down two broadcast outlets on Friday for alleged administrative violations, according to news reports. The Committee to Protect Journalists calls on Iraqi authorities to allow the stations to resume broadcasting immediately.
The tortured and decapitated body of 39-year-old María Elizabeth Macías Castro was found on a Saturday evening in September 2011. It had been dumped by the side of a road in Nuevo Laredo, a Mexican border town ravaged by the war on drugs. Macías, a freelance journalist, wrote about organized crime on social media under the pseudonym "The Girl from Laredo." Her murder, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists, was the first in which a journalist was killed in direct relation for reporting published on social media. It remains unsolved.
New York, July 18, 2012--Two Iraqi journalists living in Syria and covering the conflict in that country were killed on Saturday although news reports differed on crucial details. The Committee to Protect Journalists continues to investigate the circumstances of the deaths, which come amid reports of increasing violence toward Iraqis living in Syria.
New York, May 9, 2012--The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns two official attacks on journalists working in Iraqi Kurdistan, including the assault on a television news crew and the arrest of an editor whose articles alleged corruption. CPJ also calls for an investigation into a car bombing that wounded a journalist in Baghdad.
CPJ's María Salazar-Ferro names the 12 countries where journalists are murdered regularly and governments fail to solve the crimes. Where are leaders failing to uphold the law? Where are conditions getting better? And where is free expression in danger? (4:46)
Read CPJ's 2012 Impunity Index. And visit our Global Campaign Against Impunity and see how you can help.
New York, April 4, 2012--Iraqi journalist Kamiran Salaheddin was killed when a bomb attached to his car exploded late Monday, according to news reports. CPJ is investigating the circumstances of the attack to determine whether it was related to his work.
93 Unsolved journalist murders, reflecting the world's worst record of impunity.

The steering may develop a clunk type noise from the upper intermediate steering shaft. Our technicians tell us that you should check with you local GM dealer to find out what the latest repair is for this condition.
Problems for specific Chevrolet Suburban 1500 years:
Car problem reports
Problem with your car? See what our experts say or submit your own.
Most reported 2007 Chevrolet Suburban 1500 problems
Intake Manifold Gasket May Leak Coolant or Engine Oil
The intake manifold gasket may develop an external engine oil or coolant leak. In some cases, an internal coolant leak may occur causing coolant to mix with the engine oil. Running the engine with a coolant/oil mix may result in engine damage. Replacing the intake manifold gasket should correct this issue.
Check Engine Light Due to Gas Cap Issue
Rear Window Defogger Wire Terminal Broken Off of Window Glass
The rear window defogger may stop working due to a wire terminal broken off of the rear glass. Our technicians tell us that terminal can be reattached using a special glue or silver solder.
Keyless Entry System Not Working Due to Failed Fob/Entry Receiver
The keyless entry system may stop working. Our technicians tell us the key fobs and keyless entry receiver may need to be replaced to correct this fault.
Check Engine Light Due to Gas Cap Issue
Excessive Oil Consumption
I can't believe that the 07 Suburban oil consumption problem hasn't been mentioned on this site, it is everywhere else. Many 07 Suburbans burn a lot of oil - GM will try to tell you that a quart every 1500 - 2000 is normal - which is just ridiculous. If you burn a quart every 1000 as mine did they will repair it (if you are under 100,000 miles). It's a big repair, major engine rebuild. In mine, there was a lot of valve train damage, so it'...
Replacement of Upper Control Arm and Lower Ball Joints
Had to replace due to excess wear. Suburban not driven hard - these failed prematurely. In addition, repair by replacing just ball joints made 3 times more expensive due to GM design. The upper control arms had to be replaced making the parts very expensive and the labor 3 times more than normal.

Lightweights and Ladies Lead Attack at March 4ths MFC 6 Boardwalk BlitzThomas Takes on Healy, Modafferi and Larosa Meet. Bombarding the East Coast with a night of frenzied fighting action, the Mixed Fighting Championship kicks off its 2006 season Saturday, March 4th with MFC 6: Boardwalk Blitz, live from the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey.
Among the featured bouts, American Top Teams Din Thomas is back in the hunt for his slot among the worlds lightweight top-five after a successful stint in pro boxing. Making his MFC debut, Thomas will go toe-to-toe with NorthWest Elites Ryan Healy, a Golden Gloves veteran himself. Will the leather fly in this lightweight confrontation?
The ladies of MFC will be well represented in another highlighted bout between the 135-pound divisions Tara Larosa and Roxanne Modafferi, two of the countrys most recognized female fighters. 7-1 Larosa was a winner for Japanese audiences at Smack Girl last November; while the 6-2 Modafferi, also a Smack Girl Veteran, caught Americas eye with her two victories over top-ranked Jennifer Howe. Making history for the promotion, this will be the first pair of femme fatales to ever cross paths in the famed MFC ring.
Also on the card, undefeated Duneland Vale Tudo heavyweight Mark Burch returns to the MFC with Englishman Alex Roberts in his sights. Now calling Japan his home, 29-year-old Kujuken Kaikan kickboxer Roberts is ranked #4 in Pancrase and eager to show American audiences what hes got.
The battle begins March 4th, so dont miss your chance to experience an adrenaline rush like no other. Tickets are on sale for MFC 6: Boardwalk Blitz through all Ticketmaster locations at 1-800-736-1420 or http://www.ticketmaster.com/.

General Language Courses
General Language Courses: from $55 per hour
We provide language training for individuals for a wide variety of personal and/or professional reasons. We will discuss your requirements and goals with you in order to devise the best language training solution for you. This will take into account the time you have, your level, your expectations, your learning style and budget.
In our experience, some of the most common reasons for undertaking general language training include: overseas relocation, travel, romance, communicating with the in-laws, working abroad, and personal or professional development.
What will I learn?
All General Language courses are academically sound and promote long-term aims with the language. The teaching is communicative, challenging, interactive, and will engage and stretch you.
The key focus will often be to develop communicative fluency, accuracy, and confidence. The communicative work will also be underpinned by a systematic approach to grammar, vocabulary development, and skills work.
The sample syllabi below are designed to provide you with a good idea of what you might cover over a typical course, and include possible themes, grammar and vocabulary fields. They are flexible rather than prescriptive, in that they will be adapted to your specific level, aims and interests.
Cactus Trainers – Who will teach me?
Cactus trainers are qualified, experienced, native-speakers. We do our best to match the appropriate trainer to you, and their flexibility means that you can take classes when and where you need, incorporating what you need.
Training Formats – How will I study?
The most popular training formats are 1:1, 1:2, and small group. We are also increasingly running blended learning courses, which involve a combination of different training formats designed around an individual's schedule and learning preferences.
We believe course monitoring to be essential to the success of your course. Our courses are monitored throughout using online questionnaires, and are acted upon by Cactus wherever appropriate.
Quite amazed by how much we have managed to cover in three days and also how well it has sunk in, but that is due to the teacher who is fabulous. She is giving me a real good grounding of the grammar etc whilst making it fun at the same time.

Natural Cures for Canine Liver Cancer
Cancer can be explained as a growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division. Normally a healthy immune system ensures that such abnormal cell division does not occur. However, a weak immune system may not be able to fight these abnormal cells to maintain normalcy. There is no known complete cure that has been found in conventional or natural medicine, and therefore natural cures are basically about strengthening the immune system and helping the dog's body to combat disease. Besides protection from cancer, natural cures also provide effective support in alleviating symptoms associated with dog cancer.
The liver, involved in numerous bodily functions, is one of the most important organs in the body, and liver cancer in dogs poses a greater threat to the life of almost all dogs. The liver is involved in the detoxification process and practically everything that the dog ingests, including medicines, passes through the organ to be metabolized and filtered. Since the function of the liver is manifold, it receives a dual supply of blood. This makes it more susceptible to secondary cancer (cancer that has metastasized from another part of the body).
The immune system is the body's natural defense against disease. Almost all pet diseases can be traced back to the immune system. Domesticated animals live longer because they are protected from the natural dangers of the wild. However, at the same time we expose them to environmental pollutants and unknowingly feed them potential carcinogenic substances and medicines. These not only directly can cause primary liver cancer in dogs, but also weaken the immune system considerably.
The primary natural preventative for cancer is a healthy diet that is devoid of preservatives and additives. Dogs are natural meat eaters and their body is structured in a way to digest and use meat proteins effectively. Do not get caught in the controversy of which commercial food is best for your dog and feed him a natural diet, either raw or cooked at home. Consult your veterinarian to arrive at what is best for your dog. The overall diet depends upon the breed, age and the overall health of your pet.
While the medical fraternity has been able to understand quite a few of pet ailments, it is still struggling to unravel the mystery of cancer – the cause and the cure. Despite years of research it still remains a dreaded disease that ultimately leads to death in most cases. In the unfortunate event of cancer having already occurred, herbal remedies and homeopathic cancer treatment of dogs are natural ways of making his life comfortable by providing relief from the symptoms of cancer.

Landorus has two things going for it: a strong STAB Earthquake, and a good defensive typing. While it may seem outclassed by Garchomp, with its better secondary STAB typing and superior Speed, Landorus distinguishes itself from Garchomp with access to Explosion, lack of a weakness to Dragon-type attacks, immunity to Ground-type attacks, and Sand Force, which can make its attacks ridiculously powerful. Similar to Garchomp, though, Landorus has a 4x weakness to Ice-type attacks, which makes it susceptible to a multitude of common attackers. While it has its downsides, Landorus's huge power, excellent speed, and spread coverage makes it a powerful attacker in its own right.
Landorus's Speed and coverage make it a good check to most Rock- and Fighting-type attackers. Earthquake and Rock Slide have amazing type coverage, and with a Sand Force boost, Landorus hits incredibly hard with Earthquake, OHKOing or 2HKOing literally anything that doesn't resist it. Explosion is quite powerful and does good damage to Pokemon such as Abomasnow that Landorus can't normally beat. Explosion also has good synergy with Earthquake, as Earthquake does huge damage to the Rock- and Steel-types that resist Explosion. Protect is a staple move in VGC play.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
While often overlooked in favor of its higher Attack stat, Landorus does possess a base 115 Special Attack stat, and can run an effective special-based set. This enables Landorus to surprise its normal counters and threaten many of the most common Pokemon in the tier. Earth Power provides a reliable STAB move, and unlike Earthquake, does not hit Landorus's ally, allowing any Pokemon to be run alongside it. Hidden Power Ice gives Landorus a way to hit Zapdos and Dragon-type Pokemon, who otherwise wall this set, for super effective damage. The last attacking move comes down to what the team needs. When using Psychic, this set is able to counter Hitmontop, one of the most common Pokemon in the metagame, with ease. Psychic 2HKOes Hitmontop, while Intimidate doesn't bother Landorus at all. On the other hand, Grass Knot allows Landorus to damage Pokemon such as Swampert, Jellicent, and Gastrodon, who can normally survive Landorus's assaults. Protect is generally recognized as a necessary move for any VGC Pokemon, and for good reason. This is because with Protect, Landorus can stall out the effects of Trick Room, wait for its partner to take out a threat, or let a weather condition whittle down its opponent's HP.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
A Choice Scarf set with an Adamant nature provides an unexpected check to a ton of faster Pokemon, including would-be checks such as Weavile. U-turn cuts down on prediction, especially against Trick Room teams, and hits Abomasnow hard while escaping Blizzard. Imprison can stop Protect and Earthquake, which can be quite handy, and Sandstorm can be useful if your Tyranitar or Hippowdon is KOed, stopping rain and sun teams while activating Sand Force. Bulldoze acts as a pseudo-Icy Wind, and still hits reasonably hard, but it's somewhat difficult to use effectively since so many Pokemon are immune to it. Hammer Arm OHKOes non-Chople Berry Tyranitar, but has overlapping coverage with Earthquake and lowers Landorus's speed.
Checks and Counters
Ice-types, especially Abomasnow, are Landorus's worst enemy, easily OHKOing with their STAB attacks unless Landorus has a Yache Berry, although Rock Slide will do a number on any Ice-type. Bulky Water-types, and rain teams in general, can cause problems for Landorus as well, although Grass Knot from a special set will hurt. Breloom takes little from Earthquake or Rock Slide, and can use Spore to incapacitate Landorus, but it is easily KOed by Explosion or Psychic. Latios outspeeds and KOes Landorus, while Latias takes little from most attacks and can do good damage in return. Thundurus and Zapdos can severely damage or KO Landorus with Hidden Power Ice, but are damaged in return by Rock Slide. Rotom-W easily OHKOes with Hydro Pump, but is KOed by a Normal Gem or Helping Hand Explosion.

On the whole, it looked like a good day for Alabama's offense -- 495 yards and four touchdowns. AJ McCarron put on a performance that might have some Heisman voters still listing him No. 1 on their ballots, even with the loss. He threw for 277 yards and three touchdowns.
But Alabama stalled twice in the red zone on critical second-half drives. Converting at least a field goal on one of them would've made the difference.
The Crimson Tide, historically one of the nation's best run defenses under Nick Saban, looked mediocre against Auburn's option running attack. The Tigers picked up 296 yards and averaged 5.7 yards a carry.
Alabama never could slow the run game often enough to exploit Auburn quarterback Nick Marshall's lack of consistency as a passer.

This might've been Alabama's worst special teams performance in the Iron Bowl since 1972, when the Tide allowed two blocked punts in a loss to Auburn.
Cade Foster missed a 44-yarder, then made a 28-yarder. But a false-start penalty nullified that kick, and Foster followed up by missing from 33. A 44-yarder got blocked.
Then there was Adam Griffith's 57-yard attempt on the final play. You know what happened -- Chris Davis, 100 yards, game-winning touchdown. He ran down an unguarded sideline to score.
It was a typical Nick Saban coaching job against Auburn -- puzzling. Even though the decision to try the 57-yard field goal appears to be the right one, it's hard to figure how a detail-oriented coach such as Saban could see his team botch the ensuing kick coverage so badly.
Also, the fourth-and-one run at the Auburn 13 in the final period is a tough one to figure. A field goal would've pushed a seven-point lead to 10.
It was an Iron Bowl to remember, and for all Alabama, it was for all the wrong reasons. Nick Saban has led the Crimson Tide to three national titles but he also has coached Alabama in two of its most devastating losses to Auburn in school history. In 2010, Alabama lost a 24-point lead -- a school record for both sides. Losing by a 100-yard return of a missed field goal is something so unusual and rare, it's doubtful anybody could've imagined it.
This one will go down with the 1972, 1989 and 2010 losses. People will be talking about this for decades.
Then again, Alabama survived those other three losses with national championships not long afterward. The Crimson Tide will survive this, too.

Summary of Garrett For Hire Summary of Garrett For Hire Reviews for Garrett For Hire An Excerpt from Garrett For Hire
Meet Garrett, P.I. He's a hardboiled human detective who stands out in a crowd of elves, trolls, and other otherworldly denizens in the magical city of TunFaire. Garrett For Hire is "fantasy noir at its best" (Library Journal), collecting three novels from Glen Cook's classic urban fantasy series.
Deadly Quicksilver Lies
A rich woman hires Garrett to find her missing daughter…or to act as her hitman. In TunFaire, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference, leaving him no choice but to sift through the sex, intrigue, and murder to uncover the truth behind this case…
Petty Pewter Gods
With TunFaire real estate at a premium and prayer palaces at a minimum, the big gods on the block hold a contest: find the "key" to the one temple still available for worship. And when two rival pantheons try to hire Garrett to find it on their behalf, he finds himself facing the wrath of gods…
Faded Steel Heat
Riots between humans and non-humans have turned TunFaire into a war zone. And when a powerful gang of "human rightists" drag Garrett into the fray, he defends himself with a circle of friends no one would wish on their worst enemy…

The common thread to all of this is that 9 times out of 10, educators are nowhere to be found when decisions about education policy are being made. Time after time, educators have listened to grand plans and thought they would be invited to the table, only to discover that, instead, they are on the menu.
I thought of all this when I recently heard the Business Council of Alabama was creating the Business Education Alliance. I immediately contacted a number of educators to learn more. None of them knew anything.
This seems odd since I thought an alliance is a joint venture. But the BEA website already highlights the issues it wishes to promote. Where were the educators in this "alliance" when this was decided?
I've read every word on the BEA website. Here's what it says about one of them — school choice: "Just as competitors force businesses to improve quality, service and products for their customers in order to maintain a share of the market, school choice does the same for education."
This is the much-worn "run schools like businesses" claim. Last time I checked, the student body of a school is made up of distinct individuals, each with their own quirks, own baggage, each from a very different home environment. Whereas the last time I visited the assembly line at Hyundai, every piece and part coming down the assembly line was identical to the one in front of it and the one behind it.
Of course, choice is simply another name in most cases for vouchers or tax credits. The oldest voucher program in the United States is in Milwaukee, started more than 20 years ago. There they have spent more than $1 billion on vouchers, according to a recent article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, and about 90 percent of the students in the private-school voucher program are not proficient in reading and math.
A study by the National Center for Education Evaluation of more than 2,300 students in the Washington, D.C., system, who attend 52 private schools on vouchers, states, "Overall reading and math test scores were not significantly affected by the program."
Another BEA issue is charter schools.
Lots and lots of research points out charters are a mixed bag at best. Some above average, some average, some less than. Earlier this month, the state of New York released test results. Only 23 percent of charter students were proficient in language arts — less than public school scores. In math, charters and public schools scored the same, 31 percent proficient. KIPP is one of the most highly-touted charter networks in the country. At KIPP Star College Prep in New York City, 11 percent of fifth graders were proficient in math and just 16 percent passed the reading test.
When you log on to the "resource" section of the BEA site, the first thing that jumps out is the recommendation for StudentsFirst, the group that put out a press release from its Sacramento, Calif., office immediately after the Alabama Accountability Act was passed boasting about how wonderful it was.
At this point, all indications are that the Accountability Act is a huge flop. In spite of a lot of chest-thumping by those who created it, only a handful of students are using it. But there is one extremely valuable lesson we can learn from AAA.
Any time education is being discussed educators should be at the table.
Let's hope that those creating the Business Education Alliance not only understand this, but also take it to heart.
Larry Lee led the study, Lessons Learned from Rural Schools, and is a long-time advocate for public education and frequently writes about education issues. Email: firstname.lastname@example.com.

This is a very fine and lightweight wool-and-silk blend twill, like sharkskin suiting. From Oscar de la Renta. Very unique, with a metallic cast.
Color: Metallic Gray
Width: 59"
Content: SILK, WOOL
Designer: Oscar de la Renta
Learn about fabric careHOW TO CARE FOR WOOL FABRICS: Dry-cleaning is recommended, though some wools can take hand washing. Always test a swatch first if you are going to care for your wool fabrics at home rather than using a drycleaner. Many of the fine wools Mood sells online and in-store have already been "sponged," or preshrunk, but you can preshrink your wool if necessary. Mood recommends taking your uncut wool fabric to the drycleaners and asking them to steam it for you, which will safely preshrink it more effectively than you can using home methods. Mood strongly recommends test-laundering a swatch, if you plan to wash your garment or home furnishings yourself.
