The University of California Board of Regents is set to vote Wednesday on a plan to raise tuition by as much as 5 percent every year for the next five years. The proposal is angering students, and has put UC President Janet Napolitano at odds with Gov. Jerry Brown, who is resisting the increase and urging the UC to reduce spending instead.
Twenty years ago California voters approved Proposition 187, which was intended to withhold public education and health services from those in the U.S. illegally. A federal court struck down the measure as unconstitutional, but the proposition is credited with galvanizing a generation of Latino voters. We'll discuss the lasting impact of Proposition 187 on California politics and the nation's immigration debate.

Editor's Note: While President Barack Obama's executive action last night will bring deportation relief
to millions of undocumented immigrants, deportation remains a concern for thousands of children who entered the U.S. illegally.
Lauren Markham addresses the question of how to best educate students undergoing the legal process.
"I didn't want to come here, but I had no other choice," Ricardo told me earlier this fall.
Ricardo, a tenth grade student at Oakland International High School, left his home country of Guatemala last spring, making
his way up through Mexico and crossing into the Arizona desert. His father left when he was a baby in Guatemala and a few
years later, his mother passed away. He had lived with his grandparents for several years, but in 2013, they died too.
Gang violence had increased in his hometown and because he was an orphan, he was an easy target for gang recruitment. So
he left. There was nothing to go back to, he thought as he walked through the desert in Arizona. But after he got separated
from his group, he spotted a border patrol car and turned himself in.
After four months and three different detention shelters in Arizona and Texas, Ricardo arrived in Oakland to temporarily
live with a sponsor — a friend of a friend of the family — while he waited for his day in court. Meanwhile, he
enrolled at Oakland International High School, a public school for recently-arrived immigrants, where I coordinate non-academic
services and partnerships for our students and families.
Naturally, students like Ricardo and the 94 other unaccompanied minors in my school have a hard time concentrating in class.
There are the effects of the trauma they've almost all experienced impacting their ability to focus, remember and synthesize
There's also the very real preoccupation with their legal case. Unaccompanied minors all have upcoming immigration court
dates; if they cannot prove that they have legal grounds to stay, they will be sent home. It's nearly impossible to apply
for any kind of immigration status without a lawyer, but lawyers are expensive and hard to come by. For students like Ricardo
who face the possibility of deportation back to serious danger, it's hard to focus on algebra or biology — on anything,
really, besides their upcoming court date.
But school is critical to their future. School provides a safe, structured and supportive environment for these youth who
have experienced so much instability, and they need to learn English to survive and thrive here should they be granted permission
to stay. Moreover, judges tend to look favorably on children who are attending school, and are often more likely to grant
asylum or special immigrant juvenile status to youth who show a commitment to becoming positive, educated, engaged residents
of the United States.
So how can we keep unaccompanied youth in school?
I think we need to focus on supporting their non-academic needs. At Oakland International High School, this has meant building
partnerships with legal organizations and private attorneys to setup legal clinics and intakes for our students. Local legal
agencies Legal Services for Children, Centro Legal de la Raza and East Bay Sanctuary Covenant have teamed up to provide mass
screening and intake days at our school. During the school day, teams of attorneys flock to our school to meet individually
with students and see for what kind of relief they might qualify. More than 45 students have received lawyers this fall alone,
and thus have a shot at winning their case to stay.
But legal needs are just the tip of the iceberg for students like Ricardo. We connected him with counseling services at
our school so he has a trusted adult in which to confide, and our social work intern checks in with him each week to make
sure his basic needs — food, clothing, shelter — are being taken care of. He joined our school's soccer team,
run by Soccer Without Borders, and now has a family of friends and positive activities in which to engage during the weekend.
But OIHS is just one of many schools nationwide grappling with how to best support the high needs of unaccompanied minors.
If we really want students like Ricardo to succeed in life and in school, we need to ensure that they are connected to the
services they need and deserve.

Cosby attends the 2011 Temple University Commencement at the Liacouras Center on May 12, 2011 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Cosby's involvement in higher education is extensive. He has been among the most prominent and generous donors to historically
black colleges, especially with a $20 million donation to Spelman College. He was leading the capital campaign at Lincoln
University of Pennsylvania until a few months ago.
Cosby has also been a trustee at his alma mater, Temple University, since 1982.
That's where Cosby met one of his accusers, the former director of operations for the Temple women's basketball team. Cosby
settled a civil lawsuit brought by the woman, Andrea Constand, after she accused Cosby of drugging her and then sexually assaulting
her in January 2004.
Her lawyer told a judge that 13 women were prepared to testify about similar incidents of sexual assault involving Cosby.
Cosby was attempting to resurge as an entertainer when old allegations gained new traction and new allegations of older
incidents became public, including one by
model Janice Dickinson, who accused him of sexually assaulting her in 1982.
In an
unusual retrospective remark, a former prosecutor has since said he believes Cosby did something "inappropriate"
to Constand, even though the prosecutor didn't bring charges at the time.
Temple is standing
behind Cosby. "Dr. Cosby continues to be a member of the Temple University Board of Trustees," a Temple spokesman said
in a statement.
Cosby has previously denied Constand's and others' accusations. His lawyer
said recently that "decade-old, discredited allegations have resurfaced," but their being now repeated "does not make
them true." At least one new alleged victim has come forward in recent days, putting Cosby's total
number of accusers at 15, including
more than a half-dozen whose names are public.
A new biography of Cosby was just released. NBC, which aired his long-running, immensely popular "The Cosby Show," was
planning a new series with him. Netflix was set to post a Cosby special.
The author of the biography has been questioned over its failure to mention the longstanding
allegations against Cosby. NBC canceled production of the new Cosby project. Netflix postponed
releasing the special. Even TV Land, the channel that shows reruns of classic television shows, stopped airing the original
"Cosby Show."
The Berklee College of Music is following the lead of those companies in distancing itself from Cosby. The college named
a scholarship for Cosby after he appeared several years ago at its 60th anniversary bash; on Wednesday, it decided to take
his name off the scholarship, said Berklee spokesman Allen Bush.
Bush said college officials should be aware of the perception that campuses are unsafe – even if that isn't true for their
particular college – and that awareness should include partnerships and how they are perceived by students.
Another college, High Point University, announced a temporary shift on its ties to Cosby, who had been named to its National
Board of Advisors in July. The university removed his name and photograph from the webpage of board members, and a spokeswoman
told the Associated
Press that "we are removing his name from our board of advisors until all information on this matter is available."
When High Point named Cosby to the board in July, the university's announcement hailed him as "one of the most
influential performers of our time."
Cosby's most important contributions to higher education may be at historically black colleges – which Berklee and Temple
are not – and those colleges are, so far, sticking with Cosby or at least declining to say they are not.
In 1988, Cosby gave $20
million to Spelman College, the women's college in Georgia, which is the largest donation ever made to a historically
black college by an African American. Endowed chairs and a building
are named after Cosby and his wife. Cosby even filmed part of a short-lived TV show at Spelman.
Spelman did not return a phone call seeking comment.
Cosby was also leading the capital campaign at Lincoln University of Pennsylvania. The university's president has recently
come under fire for being dismissive of female students' rape accusations. A video on Lincoln's homepage that featured
Cosby was apparently removed in recent days.
Lincoln representatives said Cosby's relationship with the university had ended this summer, as planned.
The university said Cosby was recruited to be part of the first phase of its "Student First" capital campaign. That started
in summer 2013 and ended this June, though Cosby performed at a July concert to mark the end of that phase.
"Mr. Cosby has no current association with the University's Student First campaign," the university said in a statement.
Johnny Taylor, the president of the Thurgood Marshall College Fund, which represents public HBCUs, said neither he nor
the organization's members were preparing to back away from Cosby without independent evidence of Cosby's guilt or a verdict.
Last year, Cosby hosted a black-tie
gala for the Thurgood Marshall College Fund.
Taylor said he had been at Lincoln on Thursday and spoken with some male students who were concerned they could be wrongly
accused and the entire world could turn on them without evidence.
"We just don't have the basis to know if this is true or not," Taylor said of the allegations against Cosby. "And thus
it would be horribly unfair to turn on someone who has been very generous with his time and his money based purely upon accusations
that are, at this point, unfounded."
If independent evidence emerged that proved Cosby's guilt, Taylor said, "we absolutely would not condone that behavior
and we would have to officially take a different position."
On the historically black college scene, Cosby is a major presence: he speaks frequently at campus events and helps with
fund-raising. At a Tuskegee University last year, donors paid $5,000
or $10,000 to speak with Cosby and get a souvenir photo.
When Norman Francis of Xavier University of Louisiana announced his retirement in early September, Cosby called him. Francis
got off another call with a reporter to speak with Cosby.
Xavier and Tuskegee did not respond to requests for comment.
Cosby is also still expected to be the speaker at a fund-raising dinner Dec. 5 for Freed-Hardeman University, a Christian
institution in Tennessee. The university's website says
of its speaker that Cosby is "one of the most influential performers of the last half-century."
Berklee's decision to take Cosby's name off one of its scholarships was first reported by the International
Business Times.

TheDream.US. Photo by Cristian Lazzari\Miami Dade College Media Relations.
Obama's 2012 immigration order created a program called Deferred
Action for Childhood Arrivals. It temporarily halted deportations and offered two-year, renewable work permits to people
30 and under who entered the U.S. illegally before turning 16. The Migration Policy Institute estimates about 1.2 million
people were eligible when the program began and more than 580,000 have had their applications for the program approved as
of last month. A nationwide survey released earlier this year found 70 percent of DACA recipients started a new job, more
than half reported being more financially independent.
In Miami, Yesmyn Alcarazo applied for DACA as soon as he could. Then 21, he had been helping in the office of his father's
mechanic shop since graduating from high school but a new job wasn't what he had in mind.
The same survey of DACA recipients found that 23 percent, like Alcarazo, have used their new status to go back to school.
Alcarazo moved to Miami from Peru with his family in 2002. It wasn't until Alcarazo started filling out college applications
seven years later that his parents explained they were living in the country illegally.
At first he just felt surprised. "After that, frustration," Alcarazo said, "because all of your friends are planning to
go to college. I was actually making the plans, I didn't find out until the very end. I had sent applications and everything
and then I found out."
But he didn't give up on the idea of going to college.
"I did the research," he said, "but I would have qualified as out-of-state and it's really expensive. I couldn't burden
my parents."
Now 23, Alcarazo is a year into getting an associate's degree at Miami Dade Community College. The campus was one of two
in Florida to start offering in-state tuition to DACA recipients last year.
Students with DACA are not eligible for federal financial aid but with a scholarship from TheDream.us,
a group that supports undocumented college students, Alcarazo can take classes full-time. Without the funding he said he would
likely follow a pattern common among undocumented students.
"We're a working family, we're not rich and school isn't exactly the cheapest thing," he said. "I would probably do one
semester on and one semester off to work."
A survey by the National UnDACAmented Research Project found about 43 percent of DACA recipients pursuing a college degree
"stopped out" from their studies at least once to spend time working to support family or save money for school.
"What was reported very often [by DACA recipients] was because they could now legally work it made it more possible for
students to afford college," said Margie McHugh, director of the Migration Policy Institute's Center on Immigrant Integration
Policy. "And to feel they could do something like take on an additional class."
This summer Florida became the 17th state to pass a law granting in-state tuition waivers to students who are undocumented
or part of the DACA program if they meet certain criteria, like graduating from a high school in the state that they attended
for at minimum number of years.
Higher education boards or campus officials in eight more states have adopted policies granting in-state tuition to undocumented
students at some or all of their public colleges and universities.
The combination of in-state tuition and the opportunity to work legally helped helped Maria Banderas, who came to the U.S.
with her parents when she was 4 or 5, put her skepticism about applying for DACA aside.
"It is just an executive order, not a law, it's just something that can be changed when the next president comes in," the
20-year-old biology major said over the phone from the Hispanic Center for Academic Excellence at Southern Utah University
in Cedar City, Utah. "Another thing that made me skeptical was the fact that the government would have all of my information."
She said her parents urged her to take the risk and she spent her first year with work authorization juggling two jobs,
one a full-time as a customer service representative for AT&T and a part-time position bussing tables at a restaurant.
"I always knew I wanted to go to college," Banderas said. "I was never sure it would be a possibility, but it was something
that I was always going to try to get to do. I feel like with DACA and in-state tuition here, that really helped me a lot."
Between the 2004-05 school year and 2012-13 the number of students applying for an in-state tuition waiver at Utah's public
colleges and universities rose to 929 from 149, according to the system's communications department.
Jonathan Puente, director of the Hispanic Center at SUU said he talks to students like Banderas all the time.
"They have to pay everything out of pocket, which is a huge roadblock," he said. "We help them find private scholarships
but we have lots of students who want to come to college but don't have the money."
Six states make state-funded financial aid or privately funded scholarships available to undocumented students. In 2013,
California's first year of offering financial aid, nearly 20,700 people completed the state's Dream Act application and 6,943
received a CalGrant award, which covers tuition or additional school expenses for low-income students. This year the number
of applications rose to 26,676. Out of those, 8,282 received CalGrants and 6,400 got one of the state's new middle class scholarships,
according to the state's Student Aid Commission.
DACA hasn't only sent people into the country's higher education system.
At Seattle Education Access, Jeff Corey, the group's program manager, said they're seeing an increase in undocumented people
entering programs to complete high school diplomas or a GED and transition into college. DACA applicants must have either
credential to qualify.
"Three years ago we worked with undocumented students and had to be really careful advising them about which programs to
go into," Corey said. "We told people right off the bat that they cannot go into healthcare because of the background checks
it usually requires. Now, people can to go into new growing fields like IT and healthcare where we're seeing lots of job openings."
But Margie McHugh of the Migration Policy Institute said whether people can access programs like Corey's varies from state
to state.
"We wish there was more evidence of systematic activities to support these youth," Margie McHugh of the Migration Policy
Institute said. "Are we comfortable as a nation that one's ability to benefit from this federal immigration program
is greatly impacted by your state of residence? If you are a DACA eligible youth in Georgia, there is a set of state policies
that make it extremely difficult to access majority of adult ed programs."
Groups like Floridians for Immigration Enforcement would like to see more states limiting
undocumented students' access to public higher education.
"In-state tuition for illegals is in fact an amnesty disguised as an educational initiative," the group argues on its website.
"College entrants slots are fixed and limited. In-state tuition for illegal aliens places U.S. citizens in direct competition
with adult illegal aliens for limited slots and tuition benefits."
Republicans in Congress have already promised to respond forcefully in the new year to the expansion of deportation deferrals
Obama will outline tonight, which many expect to cover as many as 5
million more undocumented immigrants.
That opposition keeps Utah student Maria Banderas on edge.
"I'm still a little bit worried," she said, "because it still only temporary. But it does feel like there is some hope,
whereas before DACA I felt like nothing was going to be done about it."
Extending that hope to more people with new, legal access to work could make more take the bet that Banderas has, that
investing in an education while she can will pay off in the future.

Obama's immigration announcement is also about education appeared first on PBS

GWEN IFILL: A school shooting north of Seattle last month left five students dead, reviving questions of safety
and violence for students and teachers.
Another school district in Washington State is answering that question in an unconventional manner: arming school administrators.
Producer Terry Murphy from KCTS in Seattle has the story.
JOHN CERNA, Superintendent, Toppenish School District: The incident that happened at Sandy Hook, for me, for our
community, was the tipping point, because it really opened everybody's eyes. How can we keep our children and our staff
TERRY MURPHY: In the Toppenish School District, the answer to that question is to let school officials carry guns.
JOHN CERNA: We have taken the stance where we're arming our administrators. And, right now, we have 11 in
the school district that are currently armed.
TERRY MURPHY: John Cerna, Toppenish superintendent, is one of them.
JOHN CERNA: If this should happen, then I would be one of the first-responders. And if I had to, I would give up
my life.
TERRY MURPHY: Cerna has spent his life in Toppenish, located in the Yakima Valley, a landscape painted with rolling
fields and a city painted with miles of murals.
JOHN CERNA: I have carried guns forever. I have been shooting since I was a kid, so, for me, it's very routine.
I respect guns. I'm not afraid of guns.
TERRY MURPHY: Under the watchful eye of an expert, Cerna and his administrators practice their skills. All are volunteers,
and most have firearm experience. We're allowed to shoot video, as long as we hide their identity.
JOHN CERNA: I don't want anyone to know who is armed. I don't want them to have a target on their back.
First thing, if it's an active shooter call, I would throw the vest on. And this vest is very simple to put on.
TERRY MURPHY: In addition to training, Cerna shows us their bulletproof vests. Over that, another vest identifies
who they are when the police arrive.
JOHN CERNA: And, usually, when the police arrive, everybody's dead. The only thing we're doing is buying
time until a police presence shows up, because we're not the police. We're just buying time.
We have taken guns off of students. We have taken guns off of students in the schools and out in the streets.
ADAM DIAZ, Toppenish Police Chief:
TERRY MURPHY: Adam Diaz is chief of police in Toppenish. He showed us armed guards privately employed by the school
ADAM DIAZ: I would like to see a police officer in every school. Do I know that that's the reasonable option?
It's not.
MAN: Sir, let me see your hands!
TERRY MURPHY: Confronting an active shooter is a big part of police training. As this simulator demonstrates, police
need to know when to shoot…
MAN: Let me see your hands!
TERRY MURPHY: … and when not to shoot. It's these spilt-second decisions that administrators may face,
and that troubles critics.
Jon Lane is one of them.
JON LANE, Former Teacher, Frontier Middle School: I know they're well-intentioned, and I don't doubt
that at all. And, hopefully, they're well-trained. I'm again a little skeptical that you can have enough training.
Even police officers, who have extensive training, don't always make the best choices.
TERRY MURPHY: Lane is in a unique position to talk about school shootings. In 1996, this former wrestling coach
and teacher faced the barrel of a gun held by Barry Loukaitis, the Moses Lake school shooter. After almost two decades, Lane
still finds it difficult to talk about that horrific day.
It began with gunshots coming from a classroom down the hall.
JON LANE: As soon as I opened the door, I smelled the gunpowder.
TERRY MURPHY: Lane dove behind this desk. Then, Barry Loukaitis gave him a choice.
JON LANE: Barry said, if I didn't stand up, he'd start shooting more kids, so I knew I — something
I had to do. I had told him I was too afraid, I couldn't do it, and of course I was. But, by that time, I was close
enough to him, and I knew it was an opportunity to end the situation, and I charged him and pinned him kind of against the
wall. And the police at that time were there of course and came in.
TERRY MURPHY: Hailed as a hero and now retired, Jon Lane works in his community to promote positive change among
JON LANE: I don't have the answer. There's lots of answers. And it's not just a gun problem. It's
a family problem. It's a social problem. It's a faith community problem. There's a lot of dynamics to it.
It's the violence in the media.
TERRY MURPHY: Among the students we spoke with in Toppenish, there seems to be a consensus about this policy.
JOSUE RODRIGUEZ, Junior, Toppenish High School: I probably would feel safer with it, because I don't know
what could happen here. Someone could come, get a shooting, but we have a staff member who's trained and most likely
will be able to stop the situation.
TERRY MURPHY: The hope in Toppenish and at every school in this country is that school shootings will stop. But
if it does happen here, John Cerna will be ready.
JOHN CERNA: I will give up my life for my children, because I'm old. I have lived a great life. I have lived
the dream. But give me a fighting chance. And I'm a good shot.

text: This can be a depressing season for writers. Those Best Books of the Year lists start appearing in time for people to do their Christmas shopping and one must face the fact that yes, there are some brilliant writers out there talking about interesting subjects. And then there are the rest of us. There are a few cases of Mutually Agreed Plugging – you stroke my book and I'll stroke yours – and I even spotted Julie Burchill recommending (tongue in cheek, but still…) her own new book. And there are some infuriatingly obvious stocking-filler bestsellers. Terry Wogan just published something. Nothing wrong with Terry. He writes well, talks sense and everyone loves him. But you can't help but think, 'did you really have to?' It'll fly off the shelves of course.

Coating Materials
Moving aggressively to expand its protective coatings reach, Hempel USA has announced the acquisition of Blome International, a global supplier of protective coatings and linings.
Hempel Group
Founded in 1975 as Blome Cements, Blome International manufactures polymer tank linings, environmental coating systems, composite strengthening systems, vitrified tiling systems, borosilicate glass block linings, and other corrosion-resistant, abrasion-resistant and high-temperature products and systems.
Company founder James C. Blome was a ceramic engineer and materials expert who gained numerous aerospace patents and oversaw a variety of commercial inventions, including protective heat shields for space re-entry vehicles, advanced pollution control devices for gasoline engines, and ceramic foam filters for molten metal processing and recycling.
Based in O'Fallon, MO, the company is now in its third generation of family ownership.
Protective Coating Growth
For the Danish-based Hempel Group, parent company of Hempel USA, the Blome acquisition marks a major step toward Hempel's ambitious goal of quadrupling its protective coatings business.
"Blome International fits perfectly with our aggressive plan to continue to grow the oil and gas, food and beverage, and power segments in North America," said Lars Johansen, Hempel Group Vice President, Americas.
"Blome International has a solid reputation in the market, a very dedicated and experienced staff, and innovative coating solutions."
The protective coatings segment in the U.S. is significant and growing, Hempel said in a statement. "Therefore, the acquisition of a company well-positioned within the protective market is an important part of Hempel USA's strategy."
Brands Intact
Hempel will maintain Blome's brands—Boro-Block, Thermcrete and Versi-Line—and will "continue to carry out Blome International's existing objectives in North America," said Malcolm Kerr, Hempel Sales Director for North America.
Blome International
"Beyond products, Blome's unrivalled commitment to excellent customer service makes them very attractive, and we will not change this in any way."
Steven Blome said his company had found "the perfect new owner." He added, "There is no doubt that Hempel and its employees are the right choice to take Blome International to the next level."

Playlist: Popular movie tunes
With the Academy Awards coming this weekend, it's time to run down a list of the best songs off of movie soundtracks. I mean, what would a movie be without a heartfelt score during the most romantic scene? Or what about that scene in a sports movie in which the underdog is on the brink of upsetting the favored team - what would that be like without music?
I'm sure a lot of movies come to mind, but here are a few of our favorites.
My colleague Meg Weal is taking care of the award-winning songs, but I'm handling the most popular tunes movies have to offer.
"Don't You (Forget About Me)" - Simple Minds
This song is the symbol of the 1980s. Remember the scene at the end of The Breakfast Club where "Bender" walks off the football field, past the field goal posts, and throws his fist in the air? That's a pretty awesome moment, and it symbolizes the movie as a whole.
"Stand By Me" - Ben E. King
How can you not have this as the theme song of the movie Stand By Me? This nice, fluffy, melodic tune has nice ring of a triangle after every word and helps bring out heartfelt emotions. It also evokes memories of your childhood friends banding together in search of some adventure, just like the kids in Stand By Me band together to find their friend.
"I've Just Seen a Face" - Jim Sturgess
If you haven't seen Across the Universe, you're missing out on a great movie that's filled with musical content. "I've Just Seen a Face" is a classic tune. Oftentimes, when musicians try to reincarnate classic songs, they fail. But Jim Sturgess puts a modernized flare to it and allows the song to keep its original form. This is a must-have for your Academy Awards playlist.
The Theme to Rudy - Jerry Goldsmith
Throughout the whole movie, viewers see Rudy, played by Sean Astin, being told that he is too small to play football and that his dreams of playing for historic Notre Dame are impossible. But this song - along with Rudy's drive - turn you from a non-believer to a believer, especially when he sacks the Georgia Tech quarterback to end the game.
"Imperial March" - Boston Pops Orchestra
This song is arguably the most intimidating tune that a movie has to offer. When this song comes on, the one thing that comes to mind is the ominous "dark side." What I find funny about this song, though, is that it not only exemplifies Darth Vader, but it warns fans at sporting events that the rival team is approaching.
"Hakuna Matata" - Jimmy Cliff and Lebo M
Let's follow the last song with something more upbeat - "Hakuna Mata." It's a Swahili phrase that means "no worries." Throughout the song, Timon and Pumba teach listeners about the philosophy and compare it to the jungle in The Lion King.
"Iris" - Goo Goo Dolls
Johnny Rzeznik was on the verge of quitting the band and had a serious case of writer's block a few days before he wrote this song for the 1997 soundtrack to City of Angels. The melody has a slow pace, with a lot of emotion. But it picks up when the chorus kicks in, with the lyrics: "And I don't want the world to see me /'Cause I don't think that they'd understand / When everything's made to be broken / I just want you to know who I am." Rzeznik must have had a lot of his mind when he put this song together. It's a classic.
"A Real Hero" - College, Electric Youth
So, you've got the hots for Ryan Gosling? I've got you covered. "A Real Hero" has a driving, low-toned synthesizer sound followed by a gentle keyboard providing the primary melody. There are faint voices in the background that make this song what it is. I recommend putting this song on your playlist if you, a.) love Ryan Gosling, b.) are cruising in 70-degree weather in the summer, or c.) are a fan of the movie Drive.
"My Heart Will Go On" - James Horner, Will Jennings, Celine Dion
Titanic had a solid soundtrack in general, but Celine Dion knocked it out of the park when shesang the notes to this 1997 theme song. If you haven't seen the movie, I'm sure you've heard this song - and with good reason. It's the perfect finale to a soundtrack filled with cinematic musical masterpieces.

Many of the students at Oglethorpe Avenue Elementary read at a middle-to-high school level, according to Deirdre Sugiuchi, media specialist. The books purchased will be used to provide age-appropriate high interest fiction and nonfiction at the high school level.

Once the revelry of the Christmas holiday is over and the new year begins, many people are left with Christmas trees they no longer want.
Chris Caswall, owner of Athens-based junk removal company Junk South said many people will dump used Christmas trees in their yard, at the curb for trash pick up or toss them into ponds or streams.
Though an Athens area Toys for Tots collection went well this year, The North Georgia Jaycees still are seeking one last push for toy donations before most of its collection bins are picked up Friday.
The usual rush of toy donations came a little later this year than in years past, but the overall campaign has been a success, said North Georgia Jaycees Vice President of Communications Matt Chastain.
"We are really in need of toys for ages 12 and up for boys and girls and that's always the case," Chastain said. "That's why we're asking for this last push (of toys)."
Athens Community Council on Aging: Donations of a card table, a computer monitor, a boombox, box fans, an iPod, a pool table and school supplies.
Contact: Sarah McKinney, (706) 549-4850.

The lights decorating downtown streets and the Christmas music playing in stores put many in the holiday spirit. For some, though, such joviality can plummet them into a depression.
Each year, many struggle to get through the holidays for reasons ranging from a natural disaster, to an illness, or simply because they feel lost and alone. Divorce also is a common reason that many people struggle during the holidays, especially if they have children.

Partison Europe - Political Parties And The Implementation Of EU Public Policy
Free registration required
Executive Summary
The domestic implementation of policy made beyond the boundaries of the state is an opportunity for political contestation because it activates long-standing cleavages on the basis of which political parties locate themselves in the political spectrum. Drawing on cleavage theory of party positioning - which posits that panics assimilate the new issue of European integration into pre-existing ideologies that are shared by party leadership, activists and constituencies and mirror enduring commitments on core domestic issues this paper presents a partisan account of this process.
