District of Columbia Settles Lawsuit Over Transport of Special Ed. Students
Over the years, a special master had found that some students with disabilities were never picked up or picked up late, missing valuable time in school.
Over the years, a special master had found that some students with disabilities were never picked up or picked up late, missing valuable time in school.
With school reform efforts combining with federal incentives to encourage more districts and states to change how they evaluate teachers, the Council for Exceptional Children shares its views on evaluating special education teachers.
In what may be a first-of-its-kind penalty, the feds used a provision in federal law that allows cutting a state's federal special education grant, permanently, if the state cut its special education budget without the right justification.
The centers could serve--and may in many communities--as a powerful link to work, education, and other opportunities and people with disabilities. But sound monitoring is a part of making sure those centers are serving their purpose, the inspector general said.
The Collaboration to Promote Self-Determination today shared a set of recommendations to better prepare students with significant disabilities for the workforce and continue their education after high school.
A new analysis of the cost of special education concludes that by cutting special education personnel in high-spending districts to the national average, the country could save up to $10 billion a year and improve educational outcomes for students with disabilities.
The different agencies only coordinate their activities to an extent and don't ever reflect on how effectively they work together, the Government Accountability Office said.
The GAO wasn't impressed by the array of 45 programs attempting to improve employment for people with disabilities.
The state filed a motion for a stay in the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals to put off the penalty, in part to continue fighting the U.S. Department of Education over whether it should have been levied at all. South Carolina also worries about the financial repercussions
The Education Department gave South Carolina a year to find a way to come up with the $36 million it faces losing, permanently, by putting off a $36 million penalty until this October. Earlier this year, the state was denied another one-year delay of the loss in federal money. In a letter to state Superintendent Mick Zais late last month, U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan denied the request for a hearing.

Strange Clouds (out May 1), B.o.B has released a B.o.B-less promo video for new tune "Where Are You (B.o.B Vs. Bobby Ray)". The piano-laced jam is somewhat in the Eminem "Stan" vein, as it's from the perspective of three different people: one an old friend who laments how much the rapper has changed since he became famous; one a longtime fan who also rakes the MC over the coals for not sticking to his roots; and the third is B.o.B himself.

"Frozen Planet" is the exciting successor to the ground-breaking "Planet Earth" and "Blue Planet" series, and has been created by the same award-winning team. Most of us will never travel to these great wildernesses and, even for those lucky enough to have gone, this portrait of our polar regions will surprise and astound. Take a journey to the last truly great wilderness regions. From the Great Melt in Spring to the 24-hour summer, the beginning of the Big Freeze and long dark winter, this epic series will follow the dramatic landscapes and the emotional life stories of the animals that live there. Following the stories of the polar bear and wolf in the North Pole and the adelie penguin and killer whale in the South Pole, we see how they survive these extremes, how they feed, mate and rear their young. Using the latest hi-tech cameras, the series will reveal animal behaviour as we've never seen before - the long, tender mating ritual of the polar bears, the vast penguin colonies, the Arctic's most impressive hunter, the wolf as well as eider ducks, gentle seals and sociable ravens.But the real star of this series is the ice and "Frozen Planet" will tell its story, from its formation to its movement and its beauty. And of course what the future holds for it. This is the last chance to explore our Frozen Planet before it changes forever.

A story by Haruki Murakami in a recent New Yorker magazine (Oct. 13, 2014; pg. 100+) depicts a teenage girl who uses a menstrual product as a way of marking territory as well. Murakami's character is a middle-aged woman in a story titled "Scheherazade" who, in the course of a string of post-coital sharing moments, confides to the narrator a time in her adolescence when she was obsessed with a boy in her high school. Too shy to approach him personally, she would occasionally sneak into his home and peruse the contents of his bedroom. Eventually she stole several of his personal objects – a pencil, soccer insignia, sweaty tee shirt – and leaves something of her own hidden in the back of a drawer or under some old notebooks. In addition to a few strands of her hair, she hides the most personal object she can think of:
"Finally, I decided to leave a tampon behind. An unused one, of course, still in its plastic wrapper. . . . I hid it at the very back of the bottom drawer, where it would be difficult to find. That really turned me on. The fact that a tampon of mine was stashed away in his desk drawer. Maybe it was because I was so turned on that my period started almost immediately after that."
When she returns to the house on several later trips she always checks to see that the tampon is still in place and delights that it has remained in the boy's drawer. The tampon comes to be described as "a token" that represents her unrequited crush on the boy who is barely aware of her existence. Eventually she comes to associate her erotic attraction with her menstrual cycle, even thinking about the boy's masturbation as being compared to her period, "All those sperm had to go somewhere, just as girls had to have periods." Finally, the boy's parents discover that someone has been invading their home and change the locks so that her trespasses are ended. But the story's exploration of the erotic associations of menstrual details is fascinating and fairly rare.
Furthermore, the fact that this is a male author's take on the topic probably makes it somewhat unreliable even though it claims to be told through the words of a woman's reminiscences. Readers are invited to respond with mention of other stories that explore both the erotic and territorial marking potential of menstrual products and blood.]]>

Norwegian Sun Cruise Review by jayhawk72: Wonderful time in the Baltic on the Sun

Compare Prices on Norwegian Sun Baltic & Northern Europe Cruises
Wonderful time in the Baltic on the Sun
My wife and I have had 10 other cruises. When this Baltic cruise came up so inexpensive I jumped at it. We flew into Copenhagen one day early and took a segway tour with Seamus of CPH-tours. The city is beautiful and the tour will be something we will never forget. We stayed at the Scandic Palace Hotel. It is centrally located and every nice with a free buffet. Embarkation was a snap and luggage was at our room within an hour. Can't say enough about the friendliness of the crew. From the captain, Jaime CD and our room steward, Rey the were all great. The ship was very beautiful with glass elevators in the centrum. It was a small ship with a big heart. We ate in the MD and buffet only and the food was every good. The entertainment was very good. Our balcony room had more storage than we needed. We attended the art auction, always good information and very interesting.
The ports was excellent. We use SPB-tours for all all our tours. They were excellent. I highly More recommend them. Berlin, with it's 3 hour bus ride in, was still wonderful to see (the wall, gov. buildings and churches). Tallinn is the oldest city with old town with feudal walls. St. Petersburg (Hermitage, Peterhof, Catherine's Palace, Church on the Spilled Blood, etc.) was not to be missed. We had never seen anything quite as wonderful. Helsinki was a short tour, but nice. Stockholm has a beautiful port with a 3 hr. sail in.
We walked off for a 10:30AM flight. Made it in plenty of times for our long trip home. Less

According to the written offer — obtained by TMZ — Yeezus would have performed 3 shows a week for 3 weeks at the Axis at Planet Hollywood. For that he would have scored a whopping $500,000 per show.
At that rate, he could have made more per show than J-Lo, who has an offer for $350K per show … Britney, who all told makes around $475K/show … and Celine Dion, who currently earns the most at $476K per concert.
We agree with Ye! It's too early for Vegas in his career now in our opinion.

Hollywood, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania
Hollywood is an unincorporated community in the southern portion of Abington Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is well known for its collection of Southern California-style homes.
The 174-home neighborhood got its start when a builder from California, Gustav Weber filed plans to build a small subdivision in 1928. The homes were built in pastel colors with flat roofs, similar to Spanish-style homes in the Los Angeles area. Streets were named Los Angeles, San Diego, Pasadena and San Gabriel.[1]
However, one of Weber's problems was that the neighborhood was not built to cope with the Northeastern winters. Plants native to Southern California and moravian tile sidewalks were included in his plans. The plants died in the cold. Homes were not insulated and could not withstand the cold. The flat roofs leaked. The tile cracked and was replaced by concrete. As a result significant modifications were made to the homes since they were built.
The neighborhood was never finished according to Weber's plans. Possible reasons ranged from the 1929 stock market crash to an unfaithful wife.[1] A local developer ended up finishing the development in the 1940s.[2] The Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission has listed the area as eligible for national registry. As a result, residents can apply for federal grants to maintain the historical character of the neighborhood.[3]

From Tips and Steps
Deal With Stuck up People
OK, you probably have people in your school/work that are really full of themselves that they are stuck up and mean.
- Flat-out IGNORE them because when they know that you're listening and you might likely be the target.
- If that person says something offending you and rambles on how cool they are, you should choose to fight back, make up something witty to say but don't do it too seriously.
- If you really want them to stop you can tell your teacher/boss about that person and hopefully the teacher/boss will talk to them.
- That's it! It might not be enough for you.
- It might not be a good idea to tell your boss/teacher unless the person took it too far.
- Don't make your comebacks too serious or they might get their feelings hurt and/or get revenge somehow.

Carbonaceous masks for selective growth on GaAs substrates were fabricated with high resolution by anodization with an atomic force microscope (AFM). Mask deposition is made by a 15-kV accelerated electron-beam irradiation in a scanning electron microscope. The local anodization of the carbonaceous film under intense electric field is investigated and the main factors for improving resolution and reproducibility are discussed. The "edge effect" of the anodized region, revealed in the electric-field distribution at the tip–water–film interfaces is identified as the main factor responsible for the resolution degradation during patterning. Short forward bias pulse for anodizing the carbonaceous film and the subsequent reverse bias pulse for neutralizing the space charge, locally accumulated during the forward bias, are shown to be effective for the higher pattern resolution and also for deepening the patterning depth. Based on the analysis, a modulated-amplitude pulsed bias mode is proposed and is demonstrated to bring a significant improvement in the resolution and the aspect ratio of patterns made by the anodization. Carbonaceous masks ready for selective area growth of semiconductors alloys were fabricated with the pattern resolution of ∼26 nm, limited by the curvature of AFM cantilever tips. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

3 Secrets to shopping at outlet stores this holiday seasonABC News, ABC 7 News 2 hrs ago
NEW YORK (ABC/WJLA) - With just days until Black Friday, shoppers are trying to get a jump on their holiday shopping and hitting the stores this week. According to the NPD Group, nearly a quarter of shoppers will be out and about looking for name-brand products at discount prices. Outlets are so popular because their prices are often similar to brand stores on sale — about 25 percent less. When outlet goods go on sale, those prices will be the lowest a shopper can get, according to the NPD Group. Shopper Mary Jane Lindquist said that consumers should be prepared when shopping at outlet stores, though. "Know what the prices are," Lindquist said, while shopping at the Tanger Outlets in Deer Park, New York. "So when you come to the outlets, you know if you are getting a deal or not." Here are three additional tips to remember before heading to the outlet mall. 1. Know what you're buying. The NPD Group said that 85 percent of the merchandise at outlet stores was made specifically for those outlets. At Brooks Brothers Factory Store in Deer Park, New York, district manager Anne Alcocer told ABC News that the quality in a Brooks Brothers store versus a factory store was similar. "Anything with a 346 label is going to be produced for the factory stores. … [But] the fabrications will often be very similar, the color stories and the trends," she said. 2. Outlets are not just for clothes. At the Bose Factory Store in Deer Park, refurbished versions of the same electronics were available at a discount. 3. Double up on discounts. Use the outlet center's coupon books or smartphone app, which will help you spot the sales. But in some cases, consumers can also skip the trip to the outlet stores altogether and simply visit them online.

Who shot, torched, and killed D.C. mother of three?Richard Reeve, ABC 7 News
WASHINGTON (WJLA) -- Saturday was a day of strong emotion for friends and family of murder victim Latroia Smith, a 26-year old mother of three, as they issued a plea for help in finding her killer. On November 2, about 5 a.m, a Sunday morning, firefighters responded to a call at the now boarded up townhouse, in the 2700 block of Langston Place SE. Inside the vacant building, fire crews found Smith's body. She'd been shot several times. Smith's family believes the killer then set her on fire. "Yes yes yes, I'm so blessed...," whispered Lolillian Smith, as she hugged a supporter, only yards from the vacant Southeast Washington townhouse where her daughter was killed. "We're not going anywhere," Lolillian Smith declared at one point. "We need answers." "She didn't deserve this. No one deserves this," said Tarrazzia Martin, an Agape Community Services Volunteer. "...And whoever did this is an evil force." "Latroia was shot, beaten, burned and left in this abandoned place alone to die," her mother says. "We used to speak every day, and I couldn't believe it was the same person they were taking about," says one neighbor, who doesn't want her name used. Police haven't released many details about their investigation, but the neighbor believes Smith was targeted. "I felt like that was real personal, that wasn't just something just to be done. Animosity found her," she added. Police say Smith attended a party the night before, in the Woodland Terrace public housing complex. "I don't know what's going through people's minds these days," says Dorothy Good, at the Woodland Complex, visiting her brother Saturday. "The person who did it needs to turn themselves in." Stuffed animals and flowers mark the crime scene. So far, there are no suspects. Smith's family spent time putting up reward posters, and passing out flyers. They hope someone with information will come forward. "Someone is still roaming free, living their life every day, and not being brought to justice for what happened," says Amilia Osborne, Smith's cousin. But most agree, getting leads has been difficult. "There's fear," Martin says. "Anything could happen. Retaliation. People just don't want to talk." The family believes the killer or killers have used the same townhouse before. Police say there have been at least three other homicides in the same complex. MPD has announced a $25,000 reward for information. The family is pleading for someone, anyone to come forward. "Somebody knows some answers and Latroia was a beautiful young woman," Lolillian Smith says.
Then-Mayor Marion Barry takes the mic on ABC7 as a guest sportscasterABC 7 News
WASHINGTON (WJLA) – Former D.C. Mayor and Council Member Marion Barry, who died early Sunday morning, was a man of great talents, passions, and knowledge in many fields, including sports. Once in the 1990s while he was mayor, he even helped out briefly on WJLA as a guest sportscaster, calling the highlights on a Lakers-Rockets game.

?Washington Business Report? ? Nov. 23, 2014Rebecca Cooper
WASHINGTON (WJLA) – On this week's edition of "Washington Business Report" with ABC 7 News National Correspondent Rebecca Cooper: One-on-one with Overstock.com Founder and CEO Patrick Byrne He's been described as many things, but most people most know Patrick Byrne as the founder and CEO of Overstock.com. While he was in town to deliver the keynote address on central banking at D.C.'s Cato Institute, we caught up with him. In this week's portion, the man who attended Walt Whitman High School in Bethesda spoke with Rebecca about: Wall Street: • Byrne is vocal about the criminality that he says exists on Wall Street • He believes Washington is not doing an adequate job of protecting us from this activity, and he works to raise exposure Management philosophies: • Byrne affirms that decisions in a company should be made by those who have the proper knowledge to be making them, whether it be a senior executive, customer service employee, or anyone in between • His role as CEO, in his eyes, is to create an institution that allows decisions to be made in this vein • He advocates for employee promotion and has faith that allowing workers to be involved in decision making enables such advancement Warren Buffet: • Byrne was taken under the wing of Warren Buffet from the time he was in middle school • From Buffet, Byrne learned first class information about stocks and business decision making Small business spotlight: Virtual workers Businesses are always looking for new ways to use from-home workers, or virtual workers. The use of these virtual workers poses questions for both workers and those managing them. For our Spotlight on Small Business this week, Mary Abbajay discusses why virtual workers or tele-workers should be embraced, the most effective ways in managing them, and how they can put themselves in the best position to be productive. Why does the workplace of the future include virtual workers? • Virtual workers save money and office space • Employees working from home often see increased productivity, especially in tasks requiring creativity What should managers do to get the most from virtual workers? • Be clear on both policies and expectations • Really know your people What should virtual workers do to be the most effective? • Find an appropriate workspace which is free of distraction and spacious enough for all necessary work materials • Keep a routine—working from home is not an excuse to sleep in or pick up bad habits • Know your personality—if you are an extrovert, too much work away from the office may be disadvantageous Round table: Immigration, Obamacare Jonathan Aberman and Peter Morici discussed innovation at the Pentagon, President Obama's immigration announcement, and the Republicans' Obamacare lawsuit: About the Pentagon: • The Pentagon's new technology initiative will create much opportunity and shed light on the innovation present in the Washington region and not just Silicon Valley Immigration: • Obama's announcement to relieve more than 4 million undocumented immigrants drew harsh opposition from the Republican Party, who have threatened to sue • The likelihood of a successful lawsuit is slim as no one has been harmed • While immigration can be beneficial towards business, Morici considers Obama's move one of political motivation rather than economical The pending Republican lawsuit: • The House of Republicans filed on Friday a lawsuit against the Obama administration on health care related matters • Under our Constitution, it would seem as if no legal outcome can be achieved, the panelists say

Trio of armed thieves carjacks couple with baby girl in the backseatRoz Plater
WASHINGTON (WJLA) – D.C. police are searching for three men who carjacked a couple at gunpoint in broad daylight while their baby daughter was in the backseat. An Alexandria, Va. couple was stopped at a red light in the 900 block of Mount Olivet Road in Northeast D.C. Wednesday afternoon when a car hit theirs from behind. When the husband got out of the car to inspect the damage, he says a man jumped into his car through the open driver's side door. "He pointed the gun at my head and he told me to get away," the victim said, of when he tried to pull the gunman out. Seconds later, another man opened the rear passenger door and pulled the victim's wife out at gunpoint. When she screamed for her baby, the gunman threw her 1-year-old onto the ground. "I feel very happy they didn't get my baby," said the victim, who did not wish to be identified. In all, three men took off with the family's car. Police had recently warned of similar "bump and jack" carjackings in the District. Now, the victims want to warn other drivers. "Be careful for that. I hope the police can catch them," the victim said. The victim added that police located his stolen Acura Friday morning. The armed thieves remain on the loose.

Industry Minister Arnaud Montebourg, a member of the governing Socialist party, caused controversy last week when he said that the Indian company, which employs close to 20,000 people in France, should leave after it said it would have to close down a factory. The French government announced on Thursday that it could nationalize the factory in question, with backing from an unnamed businessman. The news raised the specter of the nationalizations of the early 1980s, which were instigated by Hollande's predecessor Francois Mitterrand.
