Keith Hartman, president of Public Energy Solutions (PES), Paramus, NJ, addresses how lighting and this low-risk, high-return philosophy can apply to any building owner in high utility rate-driven areas. He can be reached at (201) 576-0866.
Q: Are utilities and industries committed to efficient and effective lighting now and in the future?
A: Overall, we're in the early stages of what I call a "lighting revolution." The industry has experienced tremendous improvements in the technology and any early failures have worked themselves out. Lighting is something that is very measurable, leading many utilities across the country to believe in [energy-efficiency] programs and, therefore, offer rebates on lighting upgrade programs.
Q: What are some design issues with lighting?
A: If lighting designers or energy-efficiency experts are brought in at the onset, when buildings are first designed, those buildings would be created for optimum energy output right from the start. So, it's important to bring lighting experts in at the very early stages. Probably the single largest barrier are the [companies] that own a building where somebody else leases space, sometimes leading to lease structure and language differences concerning utility costs and billing. In many cases, that translates to an absence of the incentive to try and reduce the load of energy because neither company gets a direct benefit with the dollars that are reduced until the lease is renegotiated. That's one of the reasons why we see so many office buildings that haven't been upgraded.
What's happening now, however, is a new phase of improved technology: super T8s that can offer as much as a 25-percent additional savings beyond the more well-known and efficient T8s. There's also a much stronger push toward lighting and building controls for dimming, shutting off, and measuring lighting usage. And finally, there is an increased interest in demand response programs.
Q: New Jersey has rebates and societal benefits charges. How can building owners across the country determine the availability of incentives in their locales?
A: Not knowing about [local rebate and incentive] programs [is unfortunate because] it's the consumers – business and residential customers – that are paying for these programs. To learn more about the availability of such funds, contact the utility. Visit the [utility's] website and start researching rebate programs that may exist. Then talk to a couple of sources – the utility and somebody in the energy serv-ices field. There's also a couple of other great resources: the Department of Energy website (www.doe.gov), as well as the Edison Electric Institute website (www.eei.org). From a building owner's standpoint, [a lighting upgrade is] a phenomenal opportunity: They can improve [the quality of the lighting in] their facility; they can lower their energy costs; and by doing those two things, they actually add to the value of their facility.
Q: How best can building owners conduct a return on investment analysis to determine the applicability of such an upgrade in their own facilities?
A: Most of our customers feel they have to have less than a two-year return on investment (ROI) with a lighting upgrade. With such an ROI, building owners should be looking only at the hard-cost savings: You spend X amount of dollars to do this upgrade; there's going to be X amount of dollars that are saved directly in the cost of business installation. We don't suggest that these owners look at maintenance savings as a way of looking at the ROI; we don't suggest that they use other savings such as air-conditioning or heating savings – particularly because those are soft savings and not as easy to quantify. Instead, they should consider the project costs and the direct energy savings that result. In this way, owners can obtain a very simple, elementary payback analysis that will most likely occur during a two-year timeframe.
– Linda K. Monroe Editorial Director
Looking for a way to save money for your facility, gain a competitive edge, enhance the aesthetics of your work environment, and improve overall employee productivity all at the same time – by making just one change? Indeed, these benefits can easily be realized by upgrading what's enabling you, in part, to read this article in the first place – your lighting.
New Jersey facility managers and financial officers who make the decision to upgrade their lighting will be well on their way to making a sound, low-risk financial investment with a quick return on investment (ROI) that also generates several additional benefits. Consider that the cost of energy to operate facility lighting systems in New Jersey accounts for up to 50 percent of a typical energy bill. In fact, by investing in energy-efficient products and technologies through a lighting upgrade, New Jersey businesses – from restaurants and retailers to colleges and industrial companies – have the potential to save hundreds of millions of dollars in utility bills and to realize the following additional benefits:
For building managers and financial officers, a lighting upgrade can deliver a rapid payback and long-term profit as a result of up to a 50-percent reduction in energy and operational costs. In short, improved lighting quality allows employees to work in an environment that enhances productivity, which ultimately translates to customer satisfaction – all contributing factors that improve a facility's asset value and can lead to competitive differentiation in the marketplace.
Compared to other building improvements, a lighting system upgrade is a low-risk investment that can pay dividends right away and for years to come, through energy savings that go directly to the bottom line. Just by upgrading with new technologies, benefits are an ongoing net savings and return on investment for 10 years or more, after recovering initial installation cost during a typical two-year payback period.
Lighting upgrades can be achieved in a variety of ways. Perhaps the most significant way to obtain substantial energy savings and increased lighting efficiency is to upgrade existing fluorescent lighting systems using state-of-the-art reflector designs, as well as to engage in a relamping program using newer ballast technology.
State-of-the-art reflectors serve to control light ray emissions, redirecting light at a specified and more precise angle. This precise angling captures light energy that is otherwise lost in non-focused light dispersion. As a result, maximum lighting efficiency from the fluorescent lamp is maximized, not wasted.
Additionally, relamping your existing T12 fluorescent magnetic ballast system to an electronic ballast system comprised of 32W T8 lamps saves an excess of 73 watts per every four-lamp fixture without compromising light distribution and output. As a result, relamping in this manner translates to a savings of up to 50 percent. And because electronic ballasts operate at significantly lower temperatures, air-conditioning costs are reduced, creating a secondary savings.
You should also consider upgrading to T5 fluorescent technology if your facility is operating with medium- or high-bay HID metal halide fixtures. While such fixtures are often used, they have their downside: a desired light level warm-up time of approximately 20 minutes, high-wattage use leading to even higher electric bills, and heavy shadowing during illumination.
T5 fluorescents, on the other hand, are more energy efficient and effective for medium to high ceiling settings. Instead of a 20-minute light level start-up, the newer T5 technology offers instant start-up, providing the user with total control to switch the light on or off at any given time without waiting for warm-up or cool-down periods. Interruption of work progress is no longer an issue. Additionally, while a standard 400-watt metal halide fixture consumes 460 watts, a four-lamp fixture with T5 technology consumes only 234 watts, while providing even brighter lighting with minimal shadowing – a savings of 50 percent on electric bills. Even more, T5s only lose about five percent of their lumen output over the course of their 20,000-hour lamp life, while metal halides lose approximately 25 to 40 percent of their lumen output. Replacement and maintenance costs are considerably lower for T5s.
Increased lighting efficiency and electric bill savings can also be realized by switching incandescent lighting to compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) or to light-emitting diodes (LED). Both provide an energy savings of up to 90 percent and have significantly longer illumination lives than incandescents. CFLs, for example, last 10-times longer and LEDs last for several decades. Both kinds of technology virtually mean the end of frequent maintenance and replacement costs, too.
Finally, setting up automatic and manual dimming controls, as well as occupancy sensors, alleviates energy costs. By assessing how and when outdoor light affects the work area and how frequently occupants are in specific rooms, it is sensible to install controls that distribute light according to need. For example, when occupancy sensors detect people have not utilized a room for a pre-programmed amount of time, the sensor turns the lights off until occupants return. This sheds an additional 25 to 50 percent from an energy bill.
Another effective way New Jersey facilities can save on energy bills also happens to be a very crucial element to help prevent system failures or total power outages, and ultimately contributes to increased productivity: load control management systems. By taking advantage of these systems, coupled with an effective lighting upgrade, power loads are effectively controlled, reducing demand and system strains especially during peak usage times. A savings from 25 to 40 percent can be achieved on an energy bill by utilizing these systems. And using these systems is even easier than ever; today's Internet technology acts as an effective load verification and reduction tool, and provides real-time monitoring of power outage and metering.
Overall, substantial long-term savings in labor, maintenance, and replacement costs associated with lighting system operations are reduced with these upgrades, creating a positive effect on employees. Documented case studies of lighting upgrades report employee productivity gains of six to 16 percent. Consider that even a one-percent increase in productivity may produce savings greater than a company's entire energy bill.
In short, better lighting efficiency translates to greater productivity. Enhanced productivity gives your company an edge over other companies that have not upgraded their lighting and still may be struggling with excessive shadowing, long turn-on time, or worse yet, power outages – all of which delay production and, of course, waste money. Building differentiation is crucial in many major markets, where rent margins may vary by just 5 or 10 cents a square foot. An upgraded environment is an ideal way to enhance your facility's competitive position and asset value.
Every business in New Jersey pays a societal benefits charge (SBC) on their utility bill, of which a portion of the monies go directly to a fund for the New Jersey Clean Energy Program. There is about $130 million in funding now, 75 percent of which is set aside for the Energy Efficiency Program and 25 percent set aside for renewable energy programs in an effort to help New Jersey facilities improve their bottom line.
The New Jersey Clean Energy Program is an energy-efficiency and renewable energy program that offers organizations financial incentives. There are a variety of options available to facility managers, building owners, and operators, all of whom typically receive their return on investment in less than two years. The program is especially beneficial as energy prices in New Jersey continue to rise.
Overall, by upgrading your lighting system, you'll reap numerous benefits for your facility. Act now. You won't be left in the dark.

|In response to Re: Raw Sewage in basement
: Hi,
: we had an awful sewer backup from the drain in our floor. Our home has a sump pump and was built in the early 60's.The water was like a geizer,the city said they were fully at fault.I am wondering, they were digging in the same area a few weeks prior could this have had anything to do with it.Then after a heavy rain our basement filled with sewage for the first time since it was built. They just said they had a block all leading into out home, one supervisor told us he has never seen this happen in our area in the thirty-three years he has worked the area.They went right to the spot they had worked on before to unplug it. We also have low water pressure in the bathroom taps and they always smell like sewer,We never drink this water.
: Any ideas?? Sorry for such a long post. Thanks.

Scott Boras says GMs inquiring about Jacoby Ellsbury
Posted by Matt Pepin, Boston.com Staff October 31, 2013 01:42 PM
Both players became a free agents when the World Series ended, although the Red Sox retain negotiating rights with them until Nov. 5.
"These players are very popular," Boras said.
Boras said he hoped to hear from the Red Sox soon and acknowledged theres a lot going on. He didnt expect to hear from them until after Saturdays parade to celebrate their World Series championship.
Boras said Drew, who struggled with his offense, went to visit an eye doctor before Game 6 and he wound up hitting a home run and hit the ball hard three times. Boras expects Drew to get some interest, and pointed out that Drew and Troy Tulowitski were the only shortstops who had an OPS of more than .775 during the regular season.

cute wedge!
"These are great, it is hard to find denim material wedges and the color weave on the wedge is soo cute and versatile with your outfits. Plus lasts longer than the thin cork layer most wedges put on. I did have to put more holes in the ankle straps but find that I do this often so I don't fault this shoe. Not to high, in fact I would not mind another inch in the heel height! Great value."

A perfect wedge boot
"I bought these in the black - and it was the first time I'd had seen a pair with the distressed look in person. At first I was a little unsure about them having a "worn" look but then realized after wearing them that it really helps scuffs not be as noticeable. (I'm always scuffing the toe area of my boots!)They're very comfortable, the heel is perfect - I like the wedge and the slouched look. The only drawback is that it's not a pair you can just stick your feet into - it does take a little bit of wiggling and pulling to get them on.Oh! I have to note that I also like that I can put them on not only over a pair of skinny jeans/jeggings/tights - but also under a pair of bootcut jeans and they still look nice."

(On the lawn of Automotive High School)
On The Lawn
50 Bedford Ave. at North 13th St., Brooklyn, NY 11222
L to Bedford Ave. or G to Nassau Ave.
Heavy Girls is a comedy of sorts that follows the lives of Sven, his dementia suffering mother Edeltraut and her married male home care worker Daniel; touching on issues of family, friendship, love, freedom, pain, joy and possibilities with charm, grace and a whole lot of quirkiness.
Heavy Girls (Dicke Maedchen) (Axel Ranisch | Germany | 79 min.)
In the film Sven and his mother share their lives in a small Berlin apartment (even sharing the same bed). During the day while he is at work at a bank, Daniel comes over to care for Edeltraut and help out around the house. One day while cleaning the windows, Daniel is locked out on the terrace by the mischievous Edeltraut. She then takes off to the streets of Berlin and all Daniel can do is wait for Sven to return from work hours later. Sven and Daniel then search for Edeltraut and in the process come to realize their mutual affection for each other. Thus begins their unorthodox, complicated and often tender romance. Later in the film a traumatic turn of events quickly brings their relationship to a deeper level and forces them to look at their lives, the choices they have made and the choices they have available to them.
There is a sense of realness and a true intimacy to the film that is enhanced by the production choices – shot in East Berlin over three months, with only a mini DV cam, a very low budget and no crew. The performances are natural, witty and a delight to watch – with Heiko Pinkowski (Sven), Peter Trabner (Daniel) and the superb Ruth Bickelhaupt as Edeltraut (in her first leading role at age 89). Based on only a short treatment in lieu of a script, the film is almost completely improvised. Each scene seamlessly displays the depth of these people's struggles yet also their love and understanding of each other (and also how fun it is to be child-like and silly). Oh and the joy and freedom of being naked…

The Acura Automobile Division today announces the introduction of the 1994 Legend Coupe and Sedan. Highlighting the announcement is the addition of a new top-of-the-line Sedan as for 1994.
"The new performance-oriented, top-of-the-line Sedan as makes a first-class addition to the 1994 Legend series of automobiles," states Rich Thomas, executive vice president of Acura. "The Legend Sedan as keeps the same high-level of luxury one would expect in a top-notch luxury sedan and adds numerous performance features that are shared with the Legend Coupe," he says.
The new Sedan GS includes a 230-horsepower Type II engine with either a 6-speed manual or optional 4-speed automatic transmission, Traction Control System (TCS), 16-inch wheels and tires, upgraded sport suspension package and dual-piston front brake calipers.
The 1994 Acura Legend Sedan is available in three luxury models: the fully equipped L, the more elaborately equipped LS, and the top-of-the-line GS. The 1994 Acura Legend Coupe features two models: the L and the LS.
The Legend is powered by an aluminum-alloy, 3.2-liter, 24-valve, SOHC V-6 engine. An advanced, three-stage Variable Induction System increases torque throughout the engine's operating range, and Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) helps to ensure efficient operation under all driving conditions.
The engine/transmission package of the Legend is longitudinally mounted to achieve the ideal 60/40 weight balance for a front-wheel-drive performance luxury car. A racing-inspired, double-wishbone suspension, front and rear, delivers precise, responsive handling combined with excellent ride quality.
A precise 5-speed manual transmission is standard on the Legend Sedan L, while an electronically controlled 4-speed automatic is available as an option and standard on the Sedan LS. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on the new Legend Sedan GS and the Legend Coupe Land LS, with a 4-speed automatic as an option.
For ease of control at lower speeds and precise road feel at all speeds, a sophisticated, electronically controlled, speed-sensitive, variable power-assisted, rack-and-pinion steering system is incorporated in all models.
The elegantly styled Acura Legend Sedan and Coupe were designed for aerodynamic efficiency, incorporating clean lines to penetrate the wind with a minimum of turbulence and details such as nearly flush glass and minimal gaps between body sections to reduce wind noise and increase fuel efficiency.
For 1994 both the Legend Sedan and Legend Coupe have been subtly restyled with redesigned grilles, front bumpers and front air intakes. The new Legend Sedan GS and Legend Coupe Land LS have body-colored front grilles. Also in 1994, both Legend Coupe models feature a new high-mount brakelight integrated into the rear trunk lid, while the LS contains a new body-colored chin spoiler, side sill and rear bumper skirt.
The configuration of the unit-body chassis incorporates specific crumple zones, to help lessen the impact on the occupants in the event of a collision. All Legend models feature a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), which includes driver's and front passenger's air bags and automatic seat belt tensioners as standard equipment.
Four-wheel disc brakes provide impressive stopping power, and a standard Acura designed Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) helps the driver retain steering control during hard braking. The Legend Coupe LS and new Legend Sedan GS feature a Traction Control System (TCS), which modulates wheel slip and helps the vehicle maintain better traction and control on the road.
The luxurious, driver-oriented interior is not only rich in feel and appearance, but is also designed to the most exacting ergonomic standards. Slim roof pillars offer an open, spacious greenhouse for excellent all-around visibility, and each instrument and control is designed and positioned for easy access and operation.
All models in the new Legend Series feature additional sound insulation for quieter operation.
New in all 1994 Legend models is a power tilt and telescopic steering system with memory function that operates in conjunction with the 8-way power driver's seat. The Legend Sedan LS and GS and the Legend Coupe LS also include a 4-way power passenger seat and heated front seats.
Full moquette upholstery is standard on the Sedan L model, while soft-finished leather seating surfaces, door-panel inserts and trim are optional. Leather-trimmed interior is standard in all other Sedan and Coupe models, while burled walnut accents the center console and armrests of the Sedan LS and GS and the Coupe LS models.
Interior comfort is assured in all weather conditions by a high-capacity air conditioning and heating system standard on all Legend models, with an Automatic Climate Control System standard on Legend Sedan LS and GS and Legend Coupe LS models. A power-operated moonroof is standard on all 1994 Legend models.
The standard Legend audio system features a fully electronic Acura/Bose® AM/FM stereo/cassette 8-speaker Music System with an FM diversity antenna. LS and GS models feature a state-of-the-art Acura/Bose® Premium Music System with eight speakers. A multi-disc CD changer and hands-free cellular telephone are also available as dealer-installed options. All Legend sound systems have an anti-theft feature as standard equipment.
Prices for the 1994 Legend Sedan range from $33,800 to $40,700 for the top-of-the-line GS model.
The Acura marque has achieved a reputation for quality and reliability, as evidenced by its ranking for three consecutive years as Best Overall Carline in the J.D. Power and Associates® Vehicle Performance StudySM, a survey that measures driver satisfaction after three years of ownership. All Acura automobiles are protected by a 4-year/50,000-mile limited warranty. A nationwide network of nearly 300 dealers offers a full line of Acura models, including the NSX, Legend, Vigor and Integra.

Medieval Attitudes Toward the Legal Profession: The Past as Prologue
Jonathan Rose
Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law Arizona State University College of Law
Stetson Law Review, Vol. 28, No. 1, 1999
An interesting aspect of the medieval period is its legalistic nature and the resulting role of lawyers. Moreover, what is particularly noteworthy is the persistent hostility toward lawyers. Throughout this period, complaints about lawyers were common. A familiar litany emerged: there was excessive litigation that was caused by excessive lawyers who created a demand for their services and by their misconduct and incompetence. What is striking about these attitudes is similarity to current complaints about the legal profession. Thus, since the inception of the legal profession at the end of the 13th century, the profession has been under attack. On the other hand, it also played an important role and had significant value to the crown, government officials, and certain social groups.
This essay, which is derived primarily from a longer article, The Legal Profession in Medieval England: A History of Regulation, 48 Syracuse L. Rev. 1 (1998), traces the emergence and nature of these attitudes. It also explores their influence of the medieval regulation of the legal profession. Primary emphasis is on medieval attitudes and their impact during that period. In addition, their persistence into the early modern period in England and into colonial America is also described. The essay concludes by raising a fundamental issue about the social function of the profession and the antagonism and controversy that it engendered, and suggests the need for further thought and research about these attitudes and the ambivalence toward the profession.

Mixed feelings
"I really love the color of this bag and it is mostly as pictured. Though it's listed as genuine leather, I'm not sure if the straps are and I'm concerned about the durability of this. It is very deep versus the width and doesn't have any outside pockets which might make it a bit awkward."

I love love love this bag so far!
"I got this bag as a Mother's Day gift from my mother-in-law and I absolutely love it. She has the best eye for big leather totes. I love how the green lined interior helps make things inside the bag more visible, dark interiors tend to deflect the light and make things hard to see and find. I love that this bag is super stylish yet large enough to double as my diaper bag when I have my baby with me, no more big dorky diaper bag!!"

Vintage Charm!
"These shoes are so adorable and well made. The leather is nice and soft and the strappy knots are soo cute and vintage looking. I love the convex heel, too. True to size and enough holes in the strap for my narrow ankle. I wore these twice so far - once for a SERIOUS night of dancing til the wee small hours of the morning, and another for my sister's wedding! Two MAJOR nights and they did not disappoint! My feet were pretty happy by the end of the night! A little bit of "line creases" where the straps were, but like I said, these were major nights! I love these shoes!"

So sexy casual
"These shoes are the bee's knees! They heel height is perfect for walking around, they make my legs look amazing(very toned). I bought these in the multi color and wear them with everything! There has to be one tiny issue, of course, the material at the peep hole is a little firm and digs in a bit, but it is slowly softening up. I highly recommend if you like to feel sexy, but in that comfortable way :-)"

Come on. How many times did you watch Gwyneth Paltrow's garden party video with Stella McCartney video yesterday? Did you spot the non-white person? I think there may have been a non-white person but only shown in half-face. And kneeling. So don't you ever say it's not diverse in the Hamptons ever again, OK?
Here's G at the Dodgers game yesterday, with Apple and Moses, contemplating how to GOOP-ify baseball. How would you GOOP-ify baseball? Linen uniforms? Afternoon tea during the 7th inning stretch? Vegan hotdogs? Kale chips instead of French fries? Send me your ideas. In the meantime, enjoy again:

"Really had hope for this shoe, however when it came in the mail I was fairly disappointed. The shoe runs a little short and narrow, but does stretch quickly. They're incredibly light, and feel cheaply made. The canvas is already tearing away from the stitching on both the side seams and the toe-- I've only had them a week and worn them maybe three times. Definitely not worth what I paid for them."

My dd is 2 1/2 months old and use to love being passed around, & would often sleep through it. Now as she's gotten older she'll only allow to be passed around for a little bit before she starts to carry on and want only me. She won't even allow her father to hold her for more than 15 min. If we've had a busy day (and lot of people holding her) nobody can hold her without her starting to cry, for about 24 hrs. I make sure to take her regularly and encourage her to nap so she doesn't become over tired. when i say she's upset it's red faced, screaming at the top of her lungs. She'll only do that with me if she's gassy. how do i encourage her that she's safe with others?? and help her spend longer periods with her dad?

she's a little young yet, but she may be experiencing "stranger anxiety". it's a normal, developmental stage. respecting her fears is the best way to help her. if she wants you, then be there for her. w/dad, can you hold her together? nurse next to him while he talks to her? when she's alert and happy, both of you playing w/her and talking to eachother? she will take your cues that this is a safe person and you trust him.

Marianne API Leader, LLL Leader & mama to 4 attached kid's
"Kind words can be short & easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless." Mother Theresa
The first thing I'd say is what a smart baby, she knows what feels best for her and will only accept the best - thats YOU. And what an understanding mom you are for recognizing her needs and respecting that.
All 4 of my children have gone through wanting ONLY me at different stages in their life. My youngest has always been a little bit more reserved of people than her oldest siblings, and I did my best to accept that and realize if I kept meeting her need for safety, security and trust (without allowing others to push themselves upon her) she would eventually warm up on her own terms. That didn't always mean she would run up to grandma with her arms outstretched or go into grandpa's arms when he wanted a kiss, but interact from the safety of my arms (or now dadd's arms also) with them. I really believe that the baby has an intense need for mama and vice versa (as much as their need for food) in the first year of life. In other cultures mothers and babies are referred to as the mamatoto (translation mama/baby). As one.
The other thing I hear in your post is a need for a break for yourself. Sometimes you need some down time from holding and caring for your child so you would like her to be comfortable with daddy. Some of the things we have done is involving daddy in everything we do; so if we go for a walk, we offer daddys chest (in a baby carrier) first, we read a book together with daddy's voice narrating it, we take a bath, with daddy helping out. So we involve daddy in all our activities when he is home so she can interact with him while still feeling close (physically too) to me. When she would fall asleep we would transfer her over t him in the baby carrier , they'd go for a walk, and I would get a few minutes here and there.
This time is so intense, those first 4 months. YOu can feel confident that she will attach to other people because you are giving her the gift of trust by respecting her attachment for you!

I agree with Marianne... babies like the safety of whom they need most, and know best. I don't like strangers, and prefer only to be around my closest family... so why would/should we expect an infant to do any better?
Give the child time. Give yourself time; slow down and enjoy this very short period, though it can be trying and exhausting...
There is a very interesting piece in the back of Mothering Magazine; a father's look at mothering and his job of fathering... it might give you and your DH some perspective and ideas.
Babies form their primary attachment bond first - and it sounds like your baby has a strong attachment to you. This is healthy. Lots of babies don't like to be "passed around" - every baby has a different tolerance. Right now, your baby sees herself as "part of" you. She depends on you completely for food, warmth, and safety. As she grows she will begin to form secondary attachments, likely to her father first, but this can take time. Try not to push, or she will become insecure and cling more.
My daughter was (and is) sensitive to new people. Remember, even though they are "family", they are complete strangers to her. It made those infant months challenging, but it was worth it! Hang in there.

NJEA Secretary-Treasurer and special education teacher Marie Blistan led the chorus of opposition at yesterday's State Board of Education (SBOE) public testimony session. She was among the dozens of special education stakeholders who attended the SBOE meeting that morning and the scores of teachers and parents who have written letters asking Board members to vote against the proposed amendments.
The most egregious changes to the code would allow districts to assign case manager responsibilities to special education teachers and guidance counselors.
Some of the other proposed changes include:
Although rumors have circulated that the DOE plans to withdraw the proposed code for now, Blistan noted that the Special Education Stakeholder Coalition, which includes NJEA and more than a dozen other advocacy groups, has not received confirmation of this information to date.
Fears that the code may appear on the SBOE agenda at its July or August meeting are prompting parents and teachers to continue pressuring state officials and elected leaders.
In her testimony, Blistan reminded board members that Governor Chris Christie signed a law that called for the formation of a special education task force that would study the possibility of inproving the way special education services are delivered to New Jersey's students.
"This task force must be put into place before any regulations are considered," Blistan argued. "It will work to ensure that the needs of our special education students are not forgotten."
NJEA, along with other leaders from the Coalition will be presenting to the Joint Committee on Public Education on Tuesday, June 11. NJEA is urging members to continue to TAKE ACTION in the following ways:
Hello, my name is ___________from ____________. I am calling to ask you to co-sponsor A-3986. This legislation would ensure that properly trained child study team members continue to manage special education cases. It will allow special education teachers and counselors to continue to serve their students without distraction. This will benefit all students and the school community as a whole. I hope I can count on your support. Thank you.
2. Contact Governor Christie at 609-292-6000 or http://www.state.nj.us/governor/contact/ and let him know that you disagree with the proposed regulations. Ask him to withdraw them.
3. Write letters to editors of local and regional newspapers.
Use these talking points, and remember, your continuous efforts are making a difference! The Department of Education has an obligation to ensure that each proposed regulatory change has a positive impact on student instruction and achievement. This fight is crucial to the rights of our special education students in New Jersey.

Latvia is one of Northern Europe's most exciting places hidden away from the world's view for over half a century by the Soviet occupation. Prior to the occupation, Latvia was one of the most dynamic parts of Europe with exciting possibilities. After the collapse of the Soviet system, Latvia is struggling to regain its strength and place in the world.
There is a lot to do and see in Latvia from the untouched nature to the historic buildings dating back to the days of the great trading in the Hanseatic League. You can also see elements of the Soviet leftovers - this makes you step back and wonder what could have been without those awful years!
Come and experience for yourself this very special country and the possibilities of its exciting future. Granted, after the economic collapse of 2009 it is not as bright as it should be. But, we still hold out hope that the leadership will finally come to their senses and take serious action to simplify the government and start treating the Latvian people with the respect that they deserve.
Outside of Riga, be prepared to step back into history as the infrastructure in most parts is not yet developed as that in Riga. Be patient and understanding and you will have a remarkable experience. more
