House Votes Down Rep. Peters' Amendment to Outsourcing Bill
The Bloomfield Township Democrat denounces the 'lockstep' response to his and several other amendments in a bipartisan-supported bill designed to incentivize American jobs.
Legislation introduced by U.S. Rep. Gary Peters (D-Bloomfield Township) last month to keep tabs on large American-based multinational corporations was voted down in the House on Thursday morning.
Peters denounced the "lockstep" vote after the Outsourcing Accountability Act of 2012 (HR 3875) was voted down, 230-175. It was shot down along with several other pieces of legislation introduced by Democrats as amendments to HR 3606, a bipartisan-supported bill designed to further incentivize the creation of American jobs.
"House Republicans voted in lockstep to protect corporate outsourcers by preventing consumers from having the information they need to support companies that create American jobs," Peters said in a statement. "The families I represent in Michigan have felt the impact of outsourcing for years and House Republicans are wrong to deny them the opportunity to support companies that create American jobs."
Peters' bill introduced with two Democratic co-sponsors in February would require firms with revenues of more than $1 billion to report how many employees they have in the United States broken down by state; jobs abroad would have to be broken down by country. Currently, public filings disclose the current number of employees in a given company.
The bill was added as an amendment to HR 3606 along with several others after that bill, known as the the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act, was approved 54-1 in committee. The bill is designed to provide "emerging growth companies" (EGCs) with relief from regulation expected of a more mature enterprise in order to encourage those companies to offer public stock.
President Obama issued a statement in support Tuesday (PDF).
Amendments approved by voice vote Wednesday included one from Rep. Mike McIntyre (D-NC), which would change the definition of EGCs so it adjusts for inflation.
Peters' office said that the overall bill 3606 passed Thursday.

Peters, you're worthless- and stop sending me those stupid flyers boasting about all
the things that you've done in Congress, since most of them are having a negative
effect on me! Michigan has the worst delegation in the country in both the House and Senate- hopefully that will change in November.

Peters' amendment sounded like more government red tape for businesses to go through. It sounded good in theory, but would not have had any real benefit. I'm glad the amendment was voted down. We all want to help create American jobs; this amendment may well have stifled them.
I've not heard of anything Gary Peters has proposed that will actually help businesses, large or small. His idea of helping small businesses is to loan them more money, not to cut red tape so they can expand their business based on more profits.
10:39 pm on Thursday, March 8, 2012
Gary Peters was quoted in the article as saying; "The families I represent in Michigan have felt the impact of outsourcing for years and House Republicans are wrong to deny them the opportunity to support companies that create American jobs."
Why are you blaming the Republicans Mr. Peters? In case you don't remember, the President that brought us the North American Free Trade Agreement, that made it much easier to ship jobs to other countries, was none other that William Jefferson Clinton.
I can understand why you may be confused. Compared to the current resident of the oval office, President Clinton could be mistaken for a Republican.

Amen to that Mike. Peters and Stabenow are kinda useless.
10:48 pm on Friday, March 9, 2012
Bryce the reason Peters is confused is because he's a democrat

Peters is an election year politician....you never hear about him unless he needs votes, and then is usually pushing for some useless headline grabbing legislation. Hopefully redistributing will squeeze him out of the Michgan delegation. Agree with above commentator regarding Michigan's pathetic Washington delegation .

"The best part of waking up is" . . . finding both Peters and Sander Levin in the same cup on primary election morning. Apologies to Folgers.

Peters speaks of "lockstep" regarding the vote on his amendment. Wanna bet he
never used the term in describing the vote on Obamacare--and about every other vote taken during Nancy San Francy's rule.
One good thing about the upcoming primary: we'll be rid of either Peters or Levin.

Unfortunately not both. Add Stabenow to that list of folks that just have to go

Look up how Mr. Peters voted on House Vote 690 last August. He voted in the minority against the $2,100,000,000,000 debt expansion.
And the real term is gerrymandering. They all do it and it's a cheap trick to hurt your competition when you can't beat them otherwise.
Ed Lambert
5:27 pm on Saturday, March 10, 2012
Peters likely had the blessing of Nancy San Francie to vote this way. Leaders often will let a member off the hook for reelection purposes.
Yep, gerrymandering. The practice wouldn't exist except for the fact that all politicians who want elective office want that same job to be their career. Or as a steppingstone to a political office with greater power. That's a given, and we have no choice if we entertain any hope of the officeholder advancing a certain political perspective.

Wow...I love seeing all this discontent with Peters. I wonder were it was when the people of the 9th District elected him. I surely hope that when November rolls around there are more of us who stand up for what we know to be right and vote all those that are trying to destroy this country out of office.
Linda P
7:33 am on Friday, March 16, 2012
I read an editorial today where Peters was cited as objecting to both the emergency manager and Snyder consent agreement for Detroit ...when asked what he would do instead he is quoted as saying...get more jobs for Detroit.....wow..gee.. Gary can that happen by April 1st? Ummmm let's all vote for Gary he's got a great plan. ...this guy makes even the strong sick.

Hey, Now a days we people are getting more involve with outsourcing. The important thing is you have to be a bit more serious. Cause it has to be done in correct way.
I really appreciate your writing. You wrote really nice. Thanks for sharing this article.

I am discouraged by the result of U.S. Rep. Gary Peters' Amendment. I think we need to keep better tabs on large, multinational corporations. It doesn't surprise me, however, that the House Republicans shot it down. Maybe it necessitates too much red tape. At any rate, I believe consumers and investors need to know more about outsourcing. Moreover, there is little doubt that emerging growth companies could use a break (i.e. relief from regulation).

I am in the process of moving my data access layer over to the Spring framework, instead of just making the jdbc calls myself.
I am using JDK1.5 and Mysql5.0 for my development and testing.
It appears that my program now spends about 91% of the time in JdbcTemplate.query and that seems to be an inordinate amount of time.
Should I take a large performance penalty by moving my program to the Spring Framework? Time is very important to my app, so if it will be a lot slower then I may have to go back to a pre-Spring version.
I am also using JProfiler to profiler my unit tests.
Thank you.

Muse works to make the music better, and "better ourselves"
It's fair to say Muse's latest album, "The 2nd Law," has established that the British trio rules.
Coming off 2009's "The Resistance," which hit No. 1 in 19 countries and earned the group its third gold album in the U.S. "The 2nd Law" — Muse's sixth album overall — debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 charts last October and scored two Grammy Award nominations. The album's first single, "Survival," was the official song of the 2012 Summer Olympics Games in London, where Muse performed at the closing ceremony, while its successor, "Madness," set a Billboard record with its 19-week run at No. 1 on the Alternative chart.
FYI: Muse and Dead Sara perform at 8 p.m. Saturday, March 2, at Joe Louis Arena, 600 Civic Center Drive, Detroit. Tickets are $35-$59.50. Call 313-471-6606 or visit www.olympiaentertainment.com.
It's been nothing but an upward trajectory for Muse — guitarist Matthew Bellamy, bassist Chris Wolstenholme and drummer Dominic Howard, who formed with the name Rocket Baby Dolls during 1994 at Teignmouth Community College in Devon, England.
Despite their success, the group members try to maintain a sense of modesty about their achievements.
"We don't take anything for granted," says Wolstenholme, 34. "We know that there's a certain expectation on this band with the quality of music that we make, and it's an expectation that we put on ourselves as well, because we always want to better ourselves."
Drummer Howard, 35, agrees that "you always want to create better music and discover new musical ideas and feel like we're moving forwards and not backwards." But, he says, for Muse that process is more "relaxed" than some might expect.
"We never really feel like we've got too much pressure on ourselves in the studio," Howard notes. "We certainly don't have any outside pressure from anyone else. We just want to go in there and have a very fluid and natural process. If we find ourselves having pressure or feeling like we have pressure, I don't think you necessarily work to your best capacity.
"So we like to feel very relaxed and comfortable when we're in that situation. At least to the three of us, it feels like a comfortable creative environment."
Muse went into "The 2nd Law" without much of "a master plan," says Howard. Rather, the group took to its usual, mad-scientist style approach of experimentation and improvisation, spending the better part of 10 months in California and England finding new ways to mash together elements of classic pop melodicism and progressive rock-styled sophistication. Continued...
"It was pretty spontaneous, really," the drummer explains. "Anything we had when we came in was really at an embryonic level, and then during the course of recording them (the songs) changed so drastically. We just went into a room and started working on songs, and once we started bashing them out between the three of us we realized they were all sounding very different and quite diverse and different musically."
That includes "Madness," which was a bit moribund until Howard "booted everyone out of the studio one night" and added layers of percussion that gave the song its dramatic character. "Follow Me" started out "very, very raw and organic and rock-sounding" before Muse dressed it up with electronics, while "Panic Station" explores a funkier approach than the band has previously explored.
"The idea was to create these, almost like challenges for certain songs, to take them in new directions we hadn't tried before," Howard says. "But ultimately I think this album sounds like us enjoying ourselves and experimenting a lot."
Muse is looking forward to doing that more in the future — though that will have to wait until the group's current tour, with its typically opulent stage show, wraps up later this year.
Nevertheless, Howard says the group has already started initial conversations about a next album, "not really musical ideas so much as how we're going to do it, when we're going to do it. We've still got loads of touring to do, and we tend to feel like we need to finish touring one album before we start anything else. We like to finish one chapter and then start afresh
"We've known each other for so many years. We've grown up together. We've seen lots of different changes in each other ... and we've always stuck together, which is quite unique, really, because not too many people have friends from when they were, like, 10, like we are. It really makes this (band) special, I think."

The latest pet care news, adoptable pets, and cruelty alerts.
I've heard that grapes and raisins are poisonous to dogs. Yes or no?
Yes, Sheila. At the current time, we know that grapes and raisins appear to cause renal failure in dogs who've ingested large amounts. However, we have not determined with certainty the toxic component, or the exact mechanism that causes renal failure. It is also not clear if only certain dogs are affected, or if long-term ingestions can lead to the same effects that a large one-time ingestion can. Because there are still many unknowns regarding the toxic potential of grapes and raisins, it is advisable not to give grapes or raisins to dogs in any amount.

Q&A: Anushka Spa Nutrition Expert Ivy Larson
If you're trying to get healthy and maybe even shed a few pounds, it seems there's a never-ending list of obstacles to avoid — like orange juice, apparently. I eat healthy food and I exercise. Recently, I've even given up my beloved after-work glass(ses) of vino. I've been on the healthy train for about 6 weeks now, and all that sweat equity has lost me a whopping 5 lbs. And I could gain that back in a day. What gives?
Anushka Cosmedical Centre, Spa & Salon introduced me to Ivy Larson and her husband, bariatric surgeon Dr. Andy Larson, who have developed a "get real" lifestyle program to achieve ideal health through fitness and whole foods cooking. They recently completed their third book, The Whole Foods Diet Cookbook: 200 Recipes for Optimal Health (stay tuned for a few recipes later this week), which fits right into my cut-the-crap plan.
Ivy Larson will head up the Beauty, Nutrition & Fitness Club on Tuesdays from 6-7 p.m. starting in October at Anushka Cosmedical Centre, Spa & Salon. Her weekly workshop will be $149 per person for four hourlong sessions, with individual consultations available by appointment. The Larsons have appeared together recently on Good Morning America, Larry King Live, and in the pages of People, Newsweek and tons of locals. Check out their compelling story at www.the2larsons.com.
Here on LiivToday!, Ivy Larson answers some common questions:
I am an average American gal who stays away from fatty foods, but I know there are some items that are probably much worse than meets the eye (high fructose corn syrup comes to mind). What three things should we never consume again?
1) Eliminate Trans Fats. Trans fats are truly terrible fats. They are directly linked with heart disease as they raise "bad" LD cholesterol and total cholesterol, decrease "good" HDL cholesterol, increase triglycerides and impair artery dilation. Trans fats also decrease sensitivity to insulin, making it easier for your body to store fat and increasing risk of type 2 diabetes. On top of that, trans fats increase inflammation and therefore exacerbate symptoms of conditions such as asthma, allergies, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, eczema, etc.
Avoid trans fats by avoiding fried foods, margarines, vegetable shortening and foods containing hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils.
2 ) Avoid Processed Omega-6 Rich Vegetable Oils. Despite their healthy-sounding names, standard vegetable oils such as corn oil, "pure" vegetable oil, soybean oil, cotton seed oil, sunflower oil and safflower oil can be very harmful to overall health. These oils are all rich in omega-6 fat. Americans consume a very unhealthy Omega-6 to Omega-3 ratio of about 14:1 to 20:1 (Omega-6 fats also build up in the fat of grain-fed animals we eat). Eating an unbalanced ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 fat increases inflammation in the body, which exacerbates the symptoms of inflammatory conditions such as asthma, arthritis and multiple sclerosis and decreases insulin sensitivity (which increases risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes). Some studies have linked diets rich in Omega-6 fat to cancer and heart disease. In addition, the standard vegetable oils sitting on grocery store shelves and mixed into packaged foods are processed using very high temperatures that damage the delicate polyunsaturated fats within the oils, causing them to oxidize and turn rancid. The heat-refined vegetable oils are then exposed to chemical solvents and deodorizers to neutralize the rancid taste. On top of that, the disease-fighting antioxidants and phytochemicals found within the original "whole food" from which the oils are made are burned out. This means the conventionally processed vegetable oils simply deliver pro-inflammatory empty calories.
3 ) Avoid Refined Carbohydrates. The three most common refined carbohydrates in the typical American diet include sugar, refined flour (any flour that does not have the word "whole" in front of it is refined) and white rice. Sugar and refined flour are particularly ubiquitous in packaged foods. All three of these refined carbohydrates contribute directly to diabetes, obesity and heart disease and indirectly increase inflammation and worsen the symptoms of numerous inflammatory conditions. Note: if weight loss is not a concern, you can allow yourself one daily sweet treat made with sugar.
During the carb diet craze, I heard a lot about the sugar in fruits, vegetables and juices. Can a glass of cranberry juice really make me fat?
The main problem with the sugar in fruit (fructose) is that if it is consumed in the form of juice (without fiber) then the sugar will be quickly absorbed. Foods that are quickly absorbed (including fruit juice) are directly linked with weight gain and obesity. "Whole" fruit contains fiber-rich pulp, which helps slow digestion. The pulp also contains other important nutrients that contribute to the overall healthfulness of the fruit. Orange juice makes a good example; the white pulpy part of the orange is the primary source of its flavonoids and the juicy orange-colored sections of the orange contain most of its vitamin C. In the body, flavonoids and vitamin C work synergistically, which means you need to consume both together. When the pulpy white part of the orange is removed in the processing of orange juice, the flavonoids in the orange are lost in the process. This loss of flavonoids is one of the many reasons for eating the orange in its whole food form (even if you only end up eating a little bit of the white pulpy part). Although many commercial products will say "pulp added" on their labels, the "pulp added" many not even be the original pulp found in the whole fruit, and it is highly unlikely to be added back in the amount removed.
"Whole" fruit also provides an abundant supply of anti-inflammatory antioxidants and phytochemicals (both of which assist with weight loss), especially concentrated in the fruit skins. Unfortunately, fruit skins are not included in commercial juices. The skin is one of the places where the fruit interacts with sunlight, and forms a variety of colored pigments including carotenoids and flavonoids. Grape skins are an excellent example as they have actually been studied for their ability to help lower risk of cancer and help provide protection from ultraviolet light.
The bottom line is that "whole" fruit is healthy and slimming and fruit juice is not (unless you are making your own juice or a smoothie from the entire "whole" fruit). Fruit juice has been robbed of its fiber and a broad range of nutrients and is basically just a concentrated source of sugar that lacks the supportive nutrients to help it digest and metabolize. Fruit juice elevates blood sugar more quickly than whole fruit, and the level of sugar that can be obtained from fruit juice is higher than the level found in whole fruit. For example, 120 calories' worth of whole apples contains about 24 grams of sugar, while 120 calories' worth of apple juice contains about 30 grams.
Many people with high cholesterol, including myself, are sentenced to a lifetime of liver-polluting prescriptions. Can you really cure these kinds of ailments with diet and nutritional supplements?
In this era of convenience "chemical" cuisine, coupled with a national obsession with food subtraction (such as low-fat, low-calorie, and low-carb dieting) the benefits of a whole foods diet have been largely overlooked — despite the fact that the whole foods approach to eating has been shown to be superior to all other dietary lifestyles when it comes to preventing America's number one killer, heart disease (Hu FB, Willett WC. "Optimal Diets for Prevention of Coronary Heart Disease." JAMA. 2002 Nov 27;288(20):2569-78.) The difference between a healthful, balanced whole foods lifestyle and conventional dieting when it comes to heart disease can be greater than 70 percent, far greater than the benefit offered by medications such as aspirin, beta-blockers, cholesterol-lowering drugs or any pills on the market. A whole foods diet is also highly anti-inflammatory and therefore beneficial for people with conditions such as asthma, allergies, arthritis, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, etc. Last but not least, a whole foods diet is the best natural "cure" for both obesity and type 2 diabetes as it allows for hunger-free weight loss; whole foods are rich in the nutrients your body needs to support a healthy metabolism and curb food cravings, they take up a lot of bulk and space in your stomach therefore working mechanically to help you feel full on fewer calories, and also help keep blood sugar levels stable and insulin levels suppressed. After adopting a whole foods diet you can see results in as little as five weeks, including weight loss, improved symptoms of inflammatory conditions, decreased cholesterol, decreased blood pressure, lower triglyerides, lower body fat percentage and increased energy. Visit www.the2Larsons.com for dramatic testimonials.
Stay tuned for more tips from the Larsons, as well as recipes from The Whole Foods Diet Cookbook: 200 Recipes for Optimal Health.

Venue: Concert Hall View Seat Map Presented by: Australian Chamber Orchestra
Extraordinary footage of crowds is projected onto an onstage screen while Richard Tognetti and the Australian Chamber Orchestra perform a specially created score.
Single tickets onsale 5 December, 9am!
Subscriptions onsale now via the ACO directly
Richard Tognetti writes:
"What is it we feel when part of a crowd? Is it fear or empowerment? Do we lose ourselves, or find our real selves? Is a crowd a mob, an ignorant mass of unthinking beings? Or is it an intelligent body, capable of thought processes and invention of which individuals alone would not be capable? We spend much of our life in crowds: when we go to the football or attend a concert, when we cross the street at peak hour, when we worship, mourn, protest or feast, we often do so as part of a crowd.

Product Brief
Developer's kit for ZigBee wireless applications
Julien Happich1/6/2013 1:51 PM EST
Tell us What You Think
We want to know what you thought about this Product. Let us know by adding a comment.
Anaren announced a family of four Anaren Integrated Radio (AIR) modules designed specifically to help OEMs develop products that wirelessly communicate in compliance with the ZigBee standard.
Based on the Texas Instruments (TI) CC2530 low-power RF SoC (which operates using TI's Z-Stack firmware), the new family of AIR modules is bundled with AIR Support for ZigBee - a total solution that includes time-saving AIR-ZNP firmware (including 30+ code examples), pre-certification to applicable global, regulatory standards, and development tools like the company's new BoosterPack for TI MSP430 and Stellaris LaunchPad development kits.
The AIR modules A2530x24xxx measure 11 x 19 x 2.5mm. They offer excellent receiver sensitivity and robustness to interference (-95dBm average) and operate from a wide input voltage range of 2.2 to 3.6V. They are 100% RF tested in production. As well as low-power active modes, the units come with three low power/sleep modes from 1uA to 200uA.

Hello Benae. I have a Training Evaluation Toolkit that will help you measure the impact of any kind of training using a selection of methods. The trick is to use a method that will suit the subject matter and the organization. Whatever tool you use, you will need to customize it to suit the specific objectives of your particular program. You can find out more about my toolkit at www.businessperform.com/html/training_evaluation_toolkit.html

The satire about African-American history begins with the arrival of the slave ships and continues through to the 1980s when the play by George C. Wolfe was written and first performed. The play challenges the "identity" choices Black Americans have made over many decades in response to oppression, racism and cultural disenfranchisement.
"The Colored Museum" marks the first Berry College Theatre production to feature an all-black cast and is presented in cooperation with Berry's Office of Multicultural Affairs.
Associate Professor of Theatre John Countryman will direct the show which is generally light-hearted and farcical, and contains jazz-and-blues influenced music and a spattering of dance. The play's underlying themes are intended as a valuable reminder of the struggle for equality and recognition that African-Americans have experienced throughout their history.
"The play imagines its various episodes as exhibits in a museum," Countryman said. "[It] not only challenges assumptions about stereotypes but also the obstacles African-Americans have faced in their quest to assert an authentic and recognized identity in an adopted culture that, until fairly recently, has been predominantly Caucasian."
Performances of "The Colored Museum" will take place at 7:30 p.m. today through Saturday as well as Feb. 21-23 and 2 p.m. Feb. 17 and 24 in the E.H. Young Theatre on Berry's campus.
Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students. The play contains graphic language and is not suitable for children.
Additional information and reservations are available by calling the Berry Theatre Box Office at 706-236-2263 or emailing Richard Bristow at email@example.com.

AWD 4dr I4-GDI EX
Starting at $27,650 | Starting at 21 MPG City - 27 MPG Highway
Provided by NADAguides.com
The 2012 Kia Sorento is a mid-size crossover SUV available with two different engines; a standard 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 175 hp and 169 lb-ft of torque, and an optional 3.5-liter V6 engine that generates 276 hp and 248 lb-ft of torque. A 6-speed automatic transmission can be paired with standard FWD or optional AWD to yield an EPA estimated range of 18 mpg city to 32 mpg highway, depending on engine and drivetrain selection. Features include 18-inch alloy wheels, panoramic sunroof, rear LED taillights, surround sound audio system, navigation system with rear-camera display, audio input jacks, push button start, dual-zone climate control, leather seating, air-cooled driver seat, and heated front seats. Safety is comprised of an advanced airbag system, child-seat LATCH system, anti-lock braking, electronic stability control, traction control system, brake assist system, electronic brake-force distribution, side impact door beams, and tire-pressure monitoring. The Sorento is backed by a 5-year/60,000-mile warranty.
The new Sorento is sized between more compact crossover models like the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 and mid-size models such as the Honda Pilot and Toyota Highlander. The RAV4 is a little more maneuverable than the larger vehicles while offering just as much practical space.
For 2012, the Kia Sorento returns with a new base level trim, as well as a new direct-injection 2.4L 4-cylinder engine that makes 191 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. The new engine is offered only with a 6-speed automatic, and it comes with chrome exhaust tips as standard equipment. Other new features include stain-resistant seat covers, 17-inch wheels on base models, and optional power folding mirrors. Top-level SX versions now have a heated wood-rim steering wheel.
For 2012, the Sorento offers a 4-cylinder engine with Base, LX, SX and EX GDI trims, but this year it comes in two versions. The standard engine is a 175-horsepower 2.4L 4-cylinder, offered on the Base and LX models. A new direct-injected 191-horsepower, 2.4L 4-cylinder engine has been added, standard on the LX GDI and EX GDI, and paired only with a 6-speed automatic. The SX's standard (and LX and EX-optional) 3.5L V6 makes 276 horsepower and brings especially strong acceleration with a smooth, refined character, while the new 4-cylinder is quite economical, achieving EPA ratings of up to 21 mpg city, 27 mpg highway in all-wheel drive configuration.

Kingston school board nears action on surveillance cameras policy (with text of proposed policy)
KINGSTON, N.Y. — The Board of Education in January will consider proposed guidelines governing surveillance cameras, including those currently in use at the high school and others that are to be installed soon on district school buses.
The board's Policy Committee opted for the proposal to remain silent on the use of surveillance camera footage for employee discipline after considering a proposal to explicitly state in the policy that the cameras would not be used for that purpose.
District officials have said the purpose of the cameras is not to catch employees committing minor offenses, like coming to work late, but committee member James Shaughnessy said he was uncomfortable totally tying the district's hands if some type of egregious behavior were to be caught on camera.
He cited the example of a teacher who was accused of stabbing another teacher with a screwdriver at Poughkeepsie High School last year. The start of that incident was caught on camera, police told the Freeman at the time.
Kingston school district Superintendent Paul Padalino has told the committee that regularly using surveillance camera footage would have to be negotiated with district's unions and that even using such footage during an extenuating circumstance could face a fight.
Instead, the proposed policy focuses more on student issues.
The proposal — expected to have its first public reading at the board's Jan. 2 meeting and adopted as early as Jan. 16 — calls for the use of surveillance cameras in the middle schools and high school in places where there is no "reasonable expectation of privacy." The aim of the policy is to "promote and foster school safety and ensure a safe and effective learning environment."
The policy also would require the installation of signs to announce that areas in and around the schools are under surveillance.
Kingston Schools Surveillance Camera Policy
When students are brought up on disciplinary charges and footage is used as evidence, the proposed policy states, students or their guardians may submit a written request to view the footage. Continued...
If the request is granted, the policy proposes, the viewing "must occur in the presence of the district's designated custodian of the recording."
"Under no circumstances will the district's video recording be duplicated and/or removed from district premises, unless in accordance with a court order and/or subpoena or at the discretion of the superintendent," the proposal states.
The proposal adds that a student who is disciplined as a result of the contents of a recording "shall have an opportunity to view the tape which is the basis for the disciplinary action," but if the district concludes an investigation into student misconduct is unfounded, the student and guardian "shall not be entitled to view such video recording."

Recap: Minus Dirk, short-handed Mavs push Warriors to the brink before falling late
Recap: Mavericks 97 at Warriors 100
Minus Dirk, short-handed Mavs push Warriors to the brink before falling late
OAKLAND, Calif. — Just when it seemed like 11-time All-Star Dirk Nowitzki had turned a personal corner, his season took yet another turn.
Two days after posting a season-high 26 points during a 106-104 defeat in Portland, Nowitzki hoped to lead his team to a victory in Oakland over the Golden State Warriors, who were without point guard Stephen Curry (sprained right ankle), in the second outing of a four-game road trip. But, with his team in need of a win, Nowitzki would once again be sidelined after playing 18 games following arthroscopic knee surgery, missing in action Thursday night due to a strained right adductor injury.
"I felt a little pull in the fourth quarter of the Portland game," Nowitzki explained. "I told the trainers during the game about it, but I was able to finish it. After the game, I was already pretty sore the other night. I was hobbling and yesterday wasn't very good, but the medicine kicked in pretty nice, so actually I gave it a shot before the game. I just really couldn't get loose."
He added: "It was just bothering me, so we didn't want to really risk anything and we'll see how it responds the next 24 hours."
Meanwhile, with center Chris Kaman back in Dallas for further tests on the concussion he sustained in Monday's practice, the Mavs would be without two 7-footers against the deadly Warriors' front line of center Andrew Bogut and All-Star big man David Lee. And despite a valiant effort, the short-handed Mavericks (19-27) would come up just short after a second controversial call — or lack thereof — in as many games, falling to 0-2 on their current road trip after a 100-97 defeat.
Without Nowitzki and Kaman available, Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle rolled out his 18th different starting lineup of the season, inserting swingman Dahntay Jones at the 3 spot and big man Elton Brand at center alongside point guard Darren Collison, leading scorer O.J. Mayo and four-time All-Star forward Shawn Marion at the 4 in place of Nowitzki. And despite the best efforts of Marion, the Mavs would quickly find themselves in an 11-point hole coming out of the gate, before entering the second stanza looking up to a 28-23 deficit.
After scoring eight points and grabbing five rebounds in the first period, Marion would get a rest to start the second while Carlisle went deep into his bench. Still, behind their young contributors, the Mavs remained within an arm's reach as big men Brandan Wright and Bernard James came off the bench and provided a spark before Marion moved into double figures and brought the Mavs within one.
Free throws by Mayo then tied the game at 48-all with 2:57 remaining in the half, before eight-time All-Star Vince Carter's thunderous slam brought the Mavs within two, 55-53, entering the halftime intermission.
Led by Mayo's 13 first-half points on 4-of-7 shooting to dual Klay Thompson's 16 points at the other end, the Mavs matched the Warriors' 50 percent shooting in the first 24 minutes of action. The Mavs also owned a 24-20 rebounding edge to make up for their nine turnovers for 15 Golden State points.
Continuing to fill up the stat sheet, Marion assisted Mayo in keeping the Mavs close as the third quarter got underway. But Lee would begin to dominate inside while Thompson continued to pile up the points, before back-to-back 3-pointers by Carter and Mayo brought the Mavs within four. Fourth-year guard Rodrigue Beaubois then followed suit, draining a triple to bring the Mavs within one, 80-79, entering the fourth period after a 9-0 run.
The Warriors (29-17) quickly gained back the momentum with the first 12 points of the final 12 minutes of play, culminating in Richard Jefferson's reverse slam with 9:00 left on the clock shortly after Carter was assessed a technical foul for voicing his displeasure with officials.
"We cut it to one and then they had a 12-0 run," Wright explained. "We shot a lot of jump shots and we just got out of rhythm. But we had our opportunity to win. We had an opportunity to make plays. We just fell short again."
But the Mavs would come right back with a 13-0 run of their own to tie the game at 92-all, before Jarrett Jack's 3-pointer regained the lead for the Warriors.
"I thought we played well in the zone, moved the ball and made high-percentage shots. We played well and we played hard," Mayo said after his team fought back into the contest once again.
Wright's personal foul on Bogut inside was then accompanied by a technical, but Thompson couldn't answer on the extra free throw before Bogut extended the Warriors' lead to 97-92 with 3:18 to play after a pair of shots from the foul line. Still, the Mavs continued to charge back after a floater by Marion and jumper by Collison made it just a one-point game.
Lee's 1-of-2 trip to the foul line with 53.5 seconds remaining then made the deficit two, before Mayo also split a pair at the charity stripe to climb to within one with 42.5 ticks still left on the clock. But after a miss by Jack and Bogut's unsuccessful tip attempts, Wright wouldn't get the call on a jumper with plenty of contact down on the other end of the floor, sending the ball back over to the Warriors after an empty possession for Dallas.
"Hey, look, the game came down to the call that wasn't made," an emphatic Carlisle said just a day after the NBA publicly admitted that an offensive foul on Mayo was an incorrect call during the final seconds of the loss in Portland. "Brandan Wright got hit on the arm and it's obvious. And it's two nights in a row. It's very tough to take with as hard as our guys are fighting to not be on the free throw line with a chance to go ahead with six seconds left or whatever it is."
"We've been getting some tough calls lately, but I'm going to stay out of that. I'm not in the business of getting fined, so I'm going to leave it to what [Carlisle] said. But you guys saw the play, so you be the judge," Wright later told reporters. "Officiating is a tough thing to do, but they're human, so they're going to make mistakes. We've just got to hope that it goes the other way next time."
The Warriors then sprinted down the court before Carter fouled Jack, leading the point guard to calmly connect on two free throws with 2.0 seconds left for the Mavs to answer down three. And after a timeout by Carlisle, Mike James inbounded the ball into Carter, who worked off a double screen to the wing, where he collected the pass before flinging a 3 towards the rim that misfired as time expired.
"On that play, we were looking to get a shot up and we did," Carlisle added in regard to the final sequence. "Those plays are hard. You've got a very short amount of time and they're guarding the 3-point line."
"We fought to the end. I can't be mad at that," Marion concluded. "We just fell short. At least it went down to a last-second shot. We got an opportunity to get a look to see if we could tie it up, but we weren't fortunate. That's it."
Leading the way in defeat was Mayo, who scored 25 points on 8-of-13 shooting and 3-for-5 from 3-point range. Off the bench, Carter added 22 points, meanwhile, Marion posted a double-double with 18 points and a season-high 17 rebounds.
Despite going scoreless in the fourth, Thompson finished with a game-high 27 points on 11-of-18 shooting and 3-of-7 from behind the arc, leading five Warriors in double figures. The Mavs' 44.4 percent shooting as a team also bettered the Warriors' 42.9 percent, collecting a 47-46 rebounding edge and a 17-7 margin in fast-break points, but surrendering 22 points off their 15 turnovers compared to 13 points off Golden State's 13 giveaways.
"I thought the boys really fought hard there in the fourth quarter, made a great run and just fell a little short. That's the motto all season," Nowitzki said after watching the game from the locker room. "A lot of games this whole month of January were right there and just at the end fell short, so closing out games has been tough for us all year, with or without me."
"You know, it was a hard-fought game on the road. We've just got to come out with that one," a still disappointed Mayo concluded by saying. "Pretty frustrating, but we've got to continue getting better. We can't be discouraged or give up. We've still got a lot of basketball left and just have to continue going out there and playing hard."
Note: The Mavericks will continue their road trip on the second night of a back-to-back by making a stop in Phoenix to face the Suns on Friday. The Mavericks lead the season series 2-0. The game will air locally on Fox Sports Southwest at 8 p.m. CT.
