New Testimonial on Slaying Special Education Dragons:
5.0 out of 5 starsI would recommend this book to any parent who is dealing with ...
ByRobert Bevillon June 4, 2016
I would recommend this book to any parent who is dealing with a deceitful and dishonest school district. Let's face it, there are no penalties for the people who work for the school district. No one ever gets fired or reprimanded. I wonder how they sleep at night. It is amazing that they can live with themselves, harming the most innocent and defenseless of our children. JoAnn Collins covers all of the angles you need to defend your child against the Special Education Dragons.
The new blog post is about four of the nine reasons that some special educators lie to parents. Definetely worth your time to read!

Parent Question
My Answer
Be sure you check out my blog post!!
Parents are not legally obligated to answer the school district every time they call or email. Many years ago, a good friend of mine told me the best tip I ever gave her was that she did not have to answer the phone when the school district called. My friend was a great advocate but the school district called her to try and trick her. Once she took my advice and stopped answering the phone and made clear to them that they needed to send a letter for any communication, she felt much more in control.
Also, constant harassment could fall under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act for retaliation. Section 504 states that it "prohibits recipients or other persons from intimidating, threatening, coercing or discriminating against any individual for the purpose of interfering with any right or privilege secured by Section 504..."
You also may consider filing an OCR complaint for retaliation.
The information on Section 504 is included in my 2nd book Slaying Special Education Dragons.
Special Education Parent Book Gives Roadmap to Empower Parents in Their Uphill Battle for Special Education Services
JoAnn Collins is the author and publisher of the recently released book: Slaying Special Education Dragons; Ten Step Roadmap to Navigate the
Maze, Overcome Roadblocks, and Slay Dragons to Ensure Your Child's Appropriate Education. This book is providing critical advocacy information to empower parents as they embark on the uphill battle for needed appropriate special education services for their child.
According to federal special education law (the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 2004---IDEA 2004), children have the right to a free appropriate public education (FAPE), which is considered an "entitlement," to which few children actually receive.
As an advocate for over 25 years, I have seen school districts bring attorneys to IEP meetings, file for due process hearings to stop
independent educational evaluations at public expense (which are guaranteed under IDEA 2004 if parents disagree with the school's evaluation), and refuse to provide needed special education services. Some schools even spend thousands of dollars to fight parents for a small amount of services.
These actions by schools require parents to hire advocates or attorneys, pay for independent evaluations and also pay for private services that their child needs due to the school's denial. If parents have to spend money, then their child's special education is not free as required by IDEA 2004.
The roadmap in Slaying Special Education Dragons, which has been developed over 25 years of my advocacy includes: common special education roadblocks, federal special education law, disability law, information on navigating the IEP maze, two chapters on IEEs, school options, private school at public expense as well as truthful information about dispute resolution processes.
A testimonial by a parent: "Slaying Special Education Dragons provides families with much-needed practical advice and real-life strategies so that
they too can win the battle for their special needs child's education!"
Parents can win the uphill battle of FAPE for their child---with Slaying Special Education Dragons. It's like having an advocate at their fingertips!
JoAnn Collins is the mother of two with developmental disabilities and has been a successful educational advocate for over 25 years. She is passionate about helping families advocate for appropriate special education services. She is the author of the books Disability Deception and Slaying Special Education Dragons: Ten Step Road map to Navigate the Maze, Overcome Roadblocks and Slay Dragons; to Ensure an Appropriate Education for Your Child.
Welcome to the website of JoAnn Collins
"I appreciate that JoAnn puts her heart and soul into everything she writes!"
I assertively and persistently advocate for my child with autism, but I have a problem. My school district is constantly harassing me with questions, changes, etc. How do I stop this harassment?
"Don't trust the stairs leading to special education. They're always up to something and down to nothing. JoAnn Collins' new book won't let you fall down because she knows the steps."
-Grandparent of Child with Autism
My oldest child with a disability is soon to turn 35 years old (Angelina---who lives with me and makes me smile almost every day)! It makes me realize how long I have been involved in special education---for my two children and for other children that I have adv ocated for over these many years.
It is much tougher to be a parent of a child with disabilities today, and be a consistent advocate--throughout their school years.
When I started my journey in 1984 the first special education law had been around for several years, but few parents knew how to advocate for their child.
I remember after a parent told me about the law and how to get a copy, I just set off to make sure Angelina received the entitled education she deserved. It was extremely tough but I kept up the fight. I had a much harder fight for my son Shaun as the school did not want to teach him to read or do other academics. But with my advocacy the school paid for Sylvan, and at 17 years old my son Shaun learned to read. Today he reads quite a bit, mostly about sports and John Patterson books.
Nowadays schools have no problem not only litigating special education cases but seem to have the "corner" on "retaliation!" Very tough for parents.
But I still believe that with assertive and persistive advocacy children with disabilities can receive an appropriate education.
My second book "Slaying Special Education Dragons" has lots of advocacy tips (dragon slaying tips), as well as detailed information on retaliation and also how Office of Civil Rights (ICR) determine if retaliation has occurred!

On Saturday, the most valuable jump race in Europe will take place at Aintree, with 40 jockeys competing for a £975,000 prize. Rather less money will also be at stake in bookies and office sweepstakes around the country. Are you ready?
Which horse did you get in the sweepstake?
Fingers-crossed not Mumbles Head, an absolute no-hoper at 150-1. You're probably feeling pretty smug right now if you nabbed 7.5-1 On His Own, but then as bitter experience has taught us, anything can happen on the day. (For a full list of horses and odds, check out The Independent's downloadable sweepstake kit.)
Where will you be watching it?
Don't forget your hat, if you're planning on watching from Aintree, otherwise die hard gamblers will be gathered under the TV at the bookies. others may find a local pub more salubrious. The aptly named Coach & Horses in Soho is one of many boozer's that will be screening the race live.
Do you fully appreciate the horse names this year?
Our favourites, in reverse order of weirdness:
3. The Rainbow Hunter (66-1)
2. Major Malarkey (100-1)
1. Big Fella Thanks (40-1)
Have you formed a view on the ethics of Britain's gambling habits?
Just in case conversation flags around Fence 7. Online betting is a £2bn business in Britain and the number of problem gamblers has soared to nearly a million in recent years. The treasury is yet to close a loophole that allows big gambling firms to avoid paying around £1bn in UK tax and the betting industry has organised lobby groups to keep MPs on side.

Total Health ProductsHimalayan Institute offers a line of high quality health products to enhance physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing. The Total Health line of products also include the original Neti Pot. About The Himalayan Institute The mission of the Himalayan Institute is to offer knowledge, training, and the environment to realize one's full potential and bring a qualitative transformation in ourselves and in the larger world of which we are an integral part. A leader in the field of yoga, meditation, spirituality, and holistic health, the Himalayan Institute is a non-profit, international organization dedicated to serving humanity through educational, spiritual, and humanitarian programs. The Institute and its varied activities and programs exemplify the spiritual heritage of mankind that unites East and West, spirituality and science, and ancient wisdom and modern technology. Commitment to SustainabilityThe Himalayan Institute is committed to sustainability as an expression of yoga in action. Sustainability is an understanding that we are profoundly interconnected with the natural world, both materially and spiritually. By embracing this understanding, we can live in harmony with our environment and help to heal the planet. This commitment begins with stewardship of the ecological balance and spiritual vibrancy of our flagship campus in Honesdale, PA, and extends to our humanitarian projects abroad in Cameroon, Mexico, and India. They endeavor to integrate their mission, operations, and programs to encourage creative, meaningful, and lasting sustainability. This is expressed in measurable and ongoing attention to the conservation of energy, water, materials, and biodiversity. The Himalayan Institute encourages their entire community, both residential and online, to join the effort, so that we can all learn from each other while bringing spirituality into action. SolarIn 2010, they completed installation of the largest solar thermal hot water system in their region which heats about 1,200 gallons of water a day and generates more than 184,000 kilowatt hours annually, saving more than 3,600 gallons of propane each year. WaterHimalayan Institute is retrofitting all of their campus toilets to low-flow models. This measure will decrease toilet water usage by more than 60% as many existing toilets are from the 1950's. Tree PlantingHimalayan Institute is planting hundreds of thousands of pongamia trees worldwide. Pongamia helps to cool arid land as well as offset carbon-dioxide emissions. Himalayan Institute's Global Humanitarian ProjectsHumanitarian projects have been a major focus of the Himalayan Institute for over 30 years. Their humanitarian mission is Yoga in Action-offering spiritually-grounded healing and transformation to the world. Their humanitarian projects serve impoverished communities through rural empowerment and environmental regeneration. Himalayan Institute's flagship humanitarian project is the HI Community Center in Kumbo, Cameroon (West Africa), launched in 2007. Its major programs include the Total Health Center, School of Carpentry & Construction, Kumbo Public Library, and clean water projects. Himalayan Institute humanitarian projects also include support for village schools and a traditional Sanskrit college in rural North India; large-scale tree plantation and energy farming training centers for Tibetan refugees; and an organic farming training center in the rural mountain village of Jonotla, Mexico.

A minimalist's minimalism.
Looking back on more than a decade of womenswear.
When shopping for a downtown minimalist, it's best to keep it simple. These holiday and Christmas gifts are sure to do the trick.
Minimalism and muted tones don't have to be basic. Holly-May Saker takes on Fall's most refined styles.
See the best looks ahead.
Stop trying so hard.
Sometimes, the best pieces are the simplest ones.
Dress for the job you want—not for the one you have.
Fall's Sculptural silhouettes take a turn for the dramatic when worn backward, sideways—any which way you please.
In photographs by Craig McDean , see the fall collections zoom from minimalism to maximalism in seconds. Start the day a purist, and end it a hedonist.

DC Circuit Holds Mapping of Cochlear Implants is not a "Related Service"
Petit v. United States Dep't of Educ., ___F.3d___ (D.C. Cir. Apr. 13, 2012). This is an important special education law issue.

Fifth Circuit: Statements to Undercover Officer Are Not Testimonial
In Brown v. Epps, No. 11-60051 (5th Cir., June 27, 2012), the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals held that statements unknowingly made to an undercover officer, confidential informant, or cooperating witness, are not testimonial for Confrontation Clause purposes.
In Brown, the defendant sought post-conviction relief from a Mississippi state court drug conviction. At his trial, the State offered over objection a taped telephone converations between the man that bought the drugs from Brown and an an unidentified government informant. The district court granted Brown's post-conviction relief, finding the taped converations to be hearsay, and futher finding that the evidence violated Brown's right of confrontation.
The Fifth Circuit reversed this holding. The question before the court was whether or not the unidentified persons' statements in the recording were testimonial under Crawford v. Washington, 541 U.S. 36 (2004) and its progeny. Crawford held that a defendant's right to confront witnesses against him is violated when the State introduces "testimonial statements of a witness who did not appear at trial..."
The Crawford court described a statement as testimonial for Confrontation Clause purposes when the statement is "made under circumstances which would lead an objective witness to reasonably believe that the statement would be available for use at a later trial." The Fifth Circuit applied Crawfordto conclude that the recorded statements challenged by Brown were made to further a criminal enterprise, not to be preserved or usedat a later trial. Further, the unidentified person's statements were not part of a prior proceeding such as a preliminary hearing or before a grand jury, or otherwise exhibited characteristics testimonial in nature.
While the case seems at first glance to be a straightforward application of Crawford, the appeals court did recognize subtle, yet critically important distinctions. For example, in footnote 37, the court acknowledges a split within the Seventh Circuit on whether or not recorded statements by the informant are testimonial with one panel holding an informants' statements setting up a drug transaction are testimonial and another panel concluding the opposite.
Crawford presents challenges for criminal defense attorneys and prosecutors (and trial judges) - cases such as Brown are good review material to help us all identify and properly handle Confrontation Clause issues as they arise.

DC Circuit Upholds EPA Gashouse Regulations
In what on writer called a "stinging rebuke to industry and [the challenging] states," a three-judge DC Circuit court panel Tuesday upheld the Environmental Protection Agency's ("EPA's") greenhouse gas regulations.
The case, Coalition for Responsible Reg v. EPA, No. 09-1322 (D.C. Cir. June 26, 2012), following the United States Supreme Court's 5-4 decision in Massachusetts v. EPA, 549 U.S. 497 (2007) which compelled the EPA to regulate air pollutants under the Clean Air Act's ("CAA's") authority. The EPA in turn issued an Endangerment Finding, determining that greenhouse gases may "reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare" (citing the CAA) and the Tailpipe Rule, setting emission standards for cars and some trucks. The EPA also ordered certain stationary greenhouse gas producers to obtain construction and operating permits. Finally, the EPA issued a Timing and Tailoring Rule providing that only the largest stationary producers would be initially subject to the permit requirements.
The Petitioners which included some states and industry groups challenged the rules on ground that the EPA had improperly interpreted the CAA. Yesterday, the appeals court panel consisting of Judges Sentelle (Reagan appointment), Rogers (Bush II) and Tatel (Clinton), rejected those challenges, allowing the EPA rules to stand.
The next meaningful step for the challengers in this case is the United States Supreme Court, as en banc review of this unanimous decision seems very unlikely. The Massachusetts case was decided five-to-four, and four justices are required to grant certiorari. Inasmuch as the court's composition has changed with two justices from the Massachusetts majority (Stevens, the opinion's author, and Souter) having left the court, I would say there is some chance the Massachusetts dissenters will vote to grant certiorari in the case.

Breaking News!! Supreme Uphold Most of Obamacare!
The decision, which is 193 pages long is here. I have not had time to read it and I cannot imagine that the newspapers that are commenting on it had time to read it either. The individual mandate was upheld, but not on the basis of the Commerce Clause. Rather, it was based upon the power of Congress to tax.

2d Circuit Upholds Rule Limiting One Pro Union Button
NLRB v. Starbucks, ____F.3d___(2d Cir. May 10, 2012), is an important decision concerning the wearing of union buttons as work. The Board held that limiting employees to wearing one button was a ULP. The 2d Circuit disagreed. As the 2d Circuit explained:
We conclude that the Board has gone too far in invalidating
Starbucks's one button limitation. As the Board has previously
recognized, "Special circumstances justify restrictions on union
insignia or apparel when their display may . . . unreasonably
interfere with a public image that the employer has established."
Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc., 348 N.L.R.B. 372, 373
(2006) (internal quotation marks omitted). Starbucks is clearly
entitled to oblige its employees to wear buttons promoting its
products, and the information contained on those buttons is just as
much a part of Starbucks's public image as any other aspect of its
dress code. But the company is also entitled to avoid the
distraction from its messages that a number of union buttons would
risk. The record reveals that one employee attempted to display
eight union pins on her pants, shirts, hat, and apron. Wearing
such a large number of union buttons would risk serious dilution of
the information contained on Starbucks's buttons, and the company
has a "legitimate, recognized managerial interest[]" in preventing
its employees from doing so. District Lodge 91, 814 F.2d at 880.
The company adequately maintains the opportunity to display prounion
sentiment by permitting one, but only one, union button on
workplace clothing. Starbucks has met its burden of establishing
that the one button restriction is a necessary and appropriate
means of protecting its legitimate managerial interest in
displaying a particular public image through the messages contained
on employee buttons.

1983 Claim Dismissed Based Upon Student Being Bullied
Estate of Asher Brown v. Cypress Fairbanks Indep. Sch. Dist., ____F.Supp. 2d____(S.D. Tex. May 23, 2012), is an interesting case. A federal court in Texas granted a school district's motion dismissing a parent's Section 1983 due process claim which alleged that through its failure to enforce anti-bullying policies at the student's middle school, the school district failed to protect the student from harm, who ultimately committed suicide.
Law review commentary on this important issue would be most welcome.

Two Symposium Issues From South Texas Law Review
Not one, but two symposia issues from South Texas Law Review hit my mailbox last week.
The first, "Physical Evidence: Best Practices from Crime Scene to Conviction or Acquittal and Beyond," follows the Law Review's very interesting Fall 2010 live symposium. This issue features articles by South Texas professor Catherine Greene Burnett, internationally acclaimed forensic scientist Dr. Henry C. Lee, noted forensic pathologist Cyril H. Wecht, M.D., J.D., and two Texas Court of Criminal Appeals judges -- Hon. Michael E. Keasler and Hon. Barbara Hervey, among others.
The second issue, "Amending Article Two: Reversing the Curse" features five articles examining the lengthy and ultimately unsuccessful effort by the American Law Institute to amend Uniform Commercial Code Article 2. Professors Henry Gabriel (Elon), Scott Burnham (Gonzaga), John E. Murray, Jr. (Duquesne) and Fred H. Miller (Oklahoma) joined K & L Gates's Holly K Towle with presentations.

Georgia Supreme Court Affirms Right to Be Present at Civil Trial
Last week, the Supreme Court of Georgia issued an important decision affirming a civil litigant's right to be present at trial.
The case is Kesterson v. Jarrett, No. S11G0590 (Ga. June 18, 2012), wherein the parents of a child suffering from severe cerebral palsy allegedly resulting from medial malpractice challenged a jury's take-nothing decision favoring the obstretricdian and hospital after the trial court excluded the child from the courtroom. The intermediate court affirmed, but the high court reversed, sending the case back to the trial court for a new trial.
Prior to trial in this case, the defendants moved to have the child excluded on grounds that her presence would result in an "undue prejudicial impact on the jury as to the liability issue." and because the child could not "meaningfully participate in and comprehend the proceedings." A key precedent for both the trial and intermediate court was Helminski v. Ayerst Labs., 766 F.2d 208, 218 (6th Cir. 1985).
The Georgia Supreme Court reversed in 6-1 decision, affirming the child's right to be present, despite her severe impairment and despite that her parents, as next friends, were allowed to be present. The takeaway:
There is, in other words, a personal element to the right to be present. The right is based not only on what the party can do to the case, but on what the case will do to the party. It is the party's interests that are being determined by the jury and the judge, and it is the party's life that will be directly affected by the outcome of the case.Thus, even if a person is deemed incompetent as a matter of law (for example, a young child like Kyla) or as a matter of fact (as Kyla may be), and must therefore be represented by a parent, guardian, or custodian, the person is still considered to be the "real party in interest." Even if she is unable, or the law does not allow her, to make the decisions about her case, she remains a person directly affected by the verdict. The individuals whose legal disputes are brought to our courts for decision cannot be treated merely "as an exhibit, as a piece of evidence," regardless of their legal competence.
The Court stated that concerns about prejudice arising from a party's presence should be addressed through jury instructions or other procedures without infringing on a party's right to be present.

6th Circuit Issues Major Decision on Supervisory Status of Charge Nurses
Frenchtown Acquisition Co., Inc. v. NLRB, ____F.3d____(6th Cir. June 20, 2012), is a major decision. The 6th Circuit affirms the NLRB decision which found that charge nurses at a long-term-care and rehabilitation facility were not supervisors under the NLRA.
The decision is particularly well written and is a primer on how to judge whether an individual is a supervisor. The court approves of the standard set forth in Oakwood Healthcare, 348 NLRB 686 (2006) which defined the term independent judgment as used in the statute.
Interestingly, in rejecting the employer's argument that the charge nurses had the right to discipline employees, the court held that "a single instance of discipline does not support a finding of supervisory status." The mere correction of an Aide work, without more was also not considered discipline.
Additionally, interviewing a candidate for a position, does not indicate that you have the authority to hire, as those terms are defined in the Act.
All and all, this decision is worth a read for those of you interested in traditional labor law.

11th Circuit Denies Summary Judgment in Case Involving Discharge of Pregnant Religious School Teacher
A religious school teacher who became pregnant after engaging in premarital sex, and then married her fiance within the month, was entitled to her day in court because it was unclear whether the reason for her termination was her having engaged in premarital sex or her pregnancy. Hamilton v Southland Christian School, Inc, ____F.3d____(11th Cir. May 16, 2012). The circuit reversed the lower court's grant of summary judgment to the school on the employee's pregnancy discrimination claim.

NLRB Issues Primer On Supervisory Status
Alternative Concepts, 358 NLRB No. 38 (April 27, 2012), is an interesting case. The Board reaffirms the Oakwood line of cases and summarizes the applicable law as follows:
The Board set out the analytical framework for determiningsupervisory status in Oakwood Healthcare, 348 NLRB 686 (2006), in which it defined the statutory terms"assign," "responsibly to direct," and "independentjudgment." See also Croft Metals, 348 NLRB 717, 721–722 (2006), and Golden Crest Healthcare Center, 348NLRB 727, 728, 731 (2006). The burden of provingsupervisory status rests on the party asserting that suchstatus exists. Oakwood Healthcare, 348 NLRB at 694,citing Dean & Deluca New York, 338 NLRB 1046, 1047(2003). The party seeking to prove supervisory statusmust establish it by a preponderance of the evidence. Id.at 1047–1048; Springfield Terrace LTD, 355 NLRB 937,941 (2010). Mere inferences or conclusionary statements,without detailed, specific evidence, are insufficientto establish supervisory authority. Golden CrestHealthcare Center, 348 NLRB at 731; Lynwood Manor,350 NLRB 489, 490 (2007).
Like the other statutory indicia of supervisory status,the authority to assign and responsibly to direct otheremployees are not determinative of supervisory statusunless they are exercised using independent judgment.To exercise "independent judgment," an individual mustact or effectively recommend action "free of the controlof others," using a degree of discretion rising above "themerely routine or clerical." Oakwood Healthcare, 348NLRB at 693.In Oakwood Healthcare, 348 NLRB at 689, the Boardexplained that assignment means designating an employeeto a place (such as a location, department, orwing), appointing an employee to a time (such as a shiftor overtime period), or giving an employee significantoverall duties as opposed to ad hoc instructions that theemployee perform a discrete task. There must be specificevidence that a putative supervisor "has the abilityto require that a certain action be taken; supervisory authorityis not established where the putative supervisorhas the authority merely to request that a certain actionbe taken." Golden Crest Healthcare Center, 348 NLRBat 729.The Board in Oakwood Healthcare, 348 NLRB at 691,also interpreted the meaning of the phrase "responsiblyto direct": "If a person on the shop floor has 'men underhim,' and if that person decides 'what job shall be undertakennext or who shall do it,' that person is a supervisor,provided that the direction is both 'responsible' and carriedout with independent judgment." The Board furtherheld that, for direction to be "responsibl[e]," the persondirecting the performance of a task must be accountablefor its performance. To establish accountability for purposesof responsible direction, the party with the burdenof proof must show that "the employer delegated to theputative supervisor the authority to direct the work [ofothers] and the authority to take corrective action, if necessary,"and also that "there is a prospect of adverse consequencesfor the putative supervisor" if the putativesupervisor "does not take these steps."12 Id. at 692. Evidenceof actual accountability must be present to proveresponsible direction. Alstyle Apparel, 351 NLRB 1287,1287 (2007); Golden Crest Healthcare Center, 348 NLRB at 731.B.We find that neither the crew dispatchers nor line controllers are statutory supervisors.

Right To Control Test Applied In Unemployment Case
Matter of Best v. Commissioner of Labor, ___A.D.3d___(3d Dp't. May 17, 2012), applies the right to control test in determining employee status. As the court explained:
The existence of an employer-employee relationship is established "when the evidence shows that the employer exercises control over the results produced or the means used to achieve the results," with control over the means the more important factor to consider (Matter of Empire State Towing & Recovery Assn., Inc. [Commissioner of Labor], 15 NY3d 433, 437 [2010]; see Matter of Leazard [TestQuest, Inc.-Commissioner of Labor], 74 AD3d 1414, 1414 [2010]). Moreover, incidental control over the results produced, alone, will not constitute substantial evidence that an employment relationship exists (see Matter of Empire State Towing & Recovery Assn., Inc. [Commissioner of Labor], 15 NY3d at 437; Matter of International Student Exch. [Commissioner of Labor], 302 AD2d 834, 835-836 [2003]).
Here, the record establishes that the subcontractors were free to turn down work and work for Lusignan's competitors. After accepting a job, the subcontractors would receive the supplies and work plans from the store or general contractor and Lusignan provided no training or direction as to how the work was to be performed. The work schedule was determined by the store or general contractor and the subcontractors set their own work hours, could take days off at their own discretion and were not required to report to Lusignan on a regular basis. The subcontractors were responsible for furnishing their own tools and Lusignan did not reimburse them for expenses. Lusignan only paid the subcontractors after he had been paid for a job, paid no benefits and did not maintain insurance to cover the subcontractors. Finally, the store or general contractor would handle customer complaints.
Accordingly, while somefactors cited by the Board constituted evidence of incidental control, the record as a whole does not contain sufficient evidence to establish overall control over important aspects of the subcontractors' work so as to indicate an employer-employee relationship (see Matter of Leazard [TextQuest, Inc.-Commissioner of Labor], 74 AD3d at 1415-1416; Matter of Rosen [Vidicom, Inc.-Commissioner of Labor], 73 AD3d 1352, 1354 [2010], lv denied 15 NY3d 706 [2010]).

Employee Looses State Law Military Discrimination Claim
Many people may not know that under New York law it is unlawful to discriminate against an employee who is in the military. Matter of Kaplan v. NYS Division of Human Rights, ____A.D.3d___(2d Dept. May 16, 2012), does a nice job summarizing the law in this important area. As the court explained:
To establish liability under Executive Law § 296(1)(a) arising from the termination of employment, a complainant must establish, before the DHR, a prima facie case of discrimination by a preponderance of the evidence (see Stephenson v Hotel Empls. & Rest. Empl. Union Local 100 of AFL-CIO, 6 NY3d 265, 270), by showing that the complainant (1) is a member of a class protected by the statute; (2) was actively or constructively discharged; (3) was qualified to hold the position from which he or she was terminated; and (4) was terminated under circumstances which give rise to an inference of discrimination (id., citing Ferrante v American Lung Assn., 90 NY2d 623, 629). The burden of establishing a prima facie showing has been described as "de minimus" [*3](see Abdu-Brisson v Delta Air Lines, Inc., 239 F3d 456, 467, cert denied 534 US 993; Vinokur v Sovereign Bank, 701 F Supp 2d 276, 286-287). Once such a showing has been made, the burden shifts to the employer to rebut the prima facie case by providing a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason for the complainant's discharge (see Stephenson v Hotel Empls. & Rest. Empls. Union Local 100 of AFL-CIO, 6 NY3d at 270, citing Ferrante v American Lung Assn., 90 NY2d at 629). In response to such a rebuttal, the complainant must show by a preponderance of the evidence that the employer's reasons for the challenged termination were pretextual (see Vinokur v Sovereign Bank, 701 F Supp 2d at 287), with the complainant having the burden of persuasion on the ultimate issue of discrimination (see Texas Dept. of Community Affairs v Burdine, 450 US 248, 253; Stephenson v Hotel Empls. and Rest. Empls. Union Local 100 of AFL-CIO, 6 NY3d at 271).
The complainant here met her burden of demonstrating a prima facie case of discrimination based on military status by demonstrating that the petitioner terminated her for being late on days which included days she served ADSW duty, and that the petitioner remarked that he was tired of dealing with issues relating to her military status, which give rise to an inference of discrimination (cf. Stephenson v Hotel Empls. & Rest. Empls. Union Local 100 of AFL-CIO, 6 NY3d at 271; Matter of Putnam/Northern Westchester Bd. of Coop. Educ. Servs. v Westchester County Human Rights Commn., 81 AD3d 733). However, in response to the complainant's prima facie showing, the petitioner demonstrated that he terminated her for a legitimate, nondiscriminatory reason which was not based on her military status (see Ferrante v American Lung Assn., 90 NY2d at 629).

It was the fall of 2008. Steve and his wife, Donna, along with some other good friends had once again drawn mule deer tags for an area in north central Wyoming. This was the fourteenth year that he had been out there, and he and his hunting partners knew the area quite well – at least the part of it that they normally hunted. The terrain varied from flat to rolling with lots of stones on the ground weathered by years of being exposed to the elements. From rolling, it transitioned to steeper draws and small canyons. Some of these were relatively open, but many had a lot of scattered clumps of mahogany and pine. Between the up-and-down terrain and the scattered, sometimes thick vegetation, the resident deer had many places to find security from the annual influx of hunters.
Rolling terrain, draws and canyons in the hunting area of this story
On opening morning, the plan was for five of the hunters to work together to try to collect at least one buck. They were going to target a fairly long draw in which the deer had been found on previous hunts. Barry and Jim had driven their truck near the head of the draw, parking it out of sight behind some pine trees. Steve, Ron and Kay had driven along the 2-track that paralleled the draw and had dropped Kay off about ½ mile from where the first two men were. Steve and Ron were to drive to the end of the draw and start walking toward the others, hoping to move deer toward them. When they reached Kay's position, she would join them for the rest of the push to the head of the draw. A well-formulated plan that would take most of the morning to accomplish – except it didn't last very long.
Steve and Ron had not yet driven to the end of the draw when they came around a large clump of mahogany to see three nice bucks only 60 yards away. One was a 3x3, and the other two appeared to be 4x4's, with one being noticeably larger than the other one. Steve said to Ron, "There you go, shoot him!" "No", said Ron, "You saw them first – you shoot!" This back-and-forth good sportsmanship went on for a minute or so, until they both finally got out of the truck and got their rifles. They were still trying to give the other guy the first shot when the deer began walking off! Two of them went down into the draw but the largest one stayed up on the rim. The only problem was that it was almost 250 yards away when it stopped.
Steve finally decided that Ron wasn't going to shoot, so he laid down to try to get a shot at the buck, but it was a longer shot than he felt comfortable taking, so he passed it up. That deer also then walked through the trees toward the draw and disappeared.
The two men guessed that it was going to go back the way they came, so they started to cut through the mahogany to head it off. They began moving through the waist-high bushy vegetation and picked up the animal's tracks in the snow that was scattered about the ground in patches. Surprisingly, the deer exited the cover of the shrubbery and traveled across the 2-track and back into cover on the other side. The hunters split up and began a slow push to try to spot the deer and get a shot at it. All the while, they were moving back in the general direction of their friends.
Ron jumped the deer, but it was running and he had no shot at it. He hollered at Steve to alert him that the deer was headed his way. When the deer came across an opening about 150 yards in front of Steve, one shot from his .25-06 put the buck down.
It turned out to be a 3x4, but was a nice one, and definitely the largest-bodied of the three bucks that were in the group. Ron and Barry also got bucks that year, but those are different stories.
A nice 3x4 for Steve in 2008

Ray Harryhausen is a special effects pioneer and master of "stop-motion animation." He was a protégé of Willis O'Brien, the creator of King Kong. Harryhausen's films include Jason and the Argonauts, Seventh Voyage of Sinbad and Clash of the Titans.
Harryhausen was born in Los Angeles, CA on June 29, 1920. In 1933, he saw King Kong and knew he wanted a career in the film industry. At age 13, he began researching visual effects and stop-motion photography. After the World War II, Harryhausen acquired over 1000 feet of unused military film and made a series shorts, which helped him land a job with Willis H. O'Brien and Marcel Delgado on Mighty Joe Young (1949).
Harryhausen's real breakthrough, however, came when he was hired by Warner Brothers to do the special effects for The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms (1953) where he learned 'split screen' style of effect where rear projections overlaps the miniature screens so he could insert dinosaurs into the background. This brought him to fame and a successful career with O'Brian. The 1960s were Harryhausen's best years, producing One Million Years B.C. (1966) and The Valley of Gwangi (1969). He slowed in the 1970s, but produced three highly acclaimed films before the decade lapsed: The Golden Voyage of Sinbad (1974); Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger (1977) and Clash of the Titans (1981).
He was awarded an honorary Oscar in 1992 and finished his set of six fairy tales in 2002, a project he began 50 years earlier in 1952. In 2005, he released a two-disc set of his non-full feature work including several hours of interviews with his co-workers and early film producers. He was featured in a small cameo role in the remake of Mighty Joe Young in 1998 and was the voice of the polar bear cub in the film Elf.

Hitler Youth: Growing Up in Hitler's Shadow (2005)
by Susan Campbell Bartoletti
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I could have done without the introductory cast of characters - it wasted a lot of time. It would have been much better to meet them organically within their own stories, but whatever. It was a fascinating, oft-overlooked bit about the Holocaust and Second World War and I'd love to learn more about the Hitler Youth.
Chilling. Harrowing. Powerful. These words seem to be cliché at this point in reference to any recollections on the Holocaust or Nazi Germany. Sadly though, they are still accurate. Author Susan Campbell Bartoletti uses eye-witness accounts to ground a concept and bring into harsh reality a situation that, for many, is difficult to imagine. Instead of reducing the text to simplified attacks on an entire people and generation, the horror of Nazi Germany is brought to life through the eyes of its children. Weaving into the story the personal accounts of twelve children and their experiences, Campbell recreates life in pre-war and war-torn Germany, exploring the origins and progression of Hitler's rise to power, the Hitler Youth, Nazi propaganda, and the Holocaust. Following a roughly chronological order, each chapter focuses on a different theme, progressively showing the effects of hatred as national policy. Hitler Youth: Growing Up in Hitler's Shadow would be a great source for any unit on World War II, the Holocaust, resistance, sacrifice, and the weak--in this case, children--being influenced by or standing up to their aggressors. Enhanced with a variety of poignant and pertinent photographs, the reality of war is not sugarcoated, and some elements may be considered questionable for younger readers. For anyone interested in history, this is a fascinating read--a cautionary tale regarding the power of propaganda, youth, and National Socialism.
These are the true-life stories of a number of young people who grew up in Nazi Germany, some who supported Hitler and some who opposed him. It provides the reading with wonderful insights at to how and why Hitler came to power as well as how he maintained control over the German people, especially the young.
A balanced and insightful look at the shameful exploitation of a nations youth. Eerie parallels abound with the current American political environment and the presidents cult of personality, his constant appeals to the youngest voters, his unflagging attempts to undermine all forms of education not supervised by the state and the propaganda calls for 'volunteerism' and 'service years' controlled by the government.
This book covers a subject that it's really spoken about: the young men and women under Nazi rule who believed in, fought for, and often died, for their Fuhrer. Well-researched and well-written, Bartoletti helps the reader understand the role these children played in the War. She brings to light a side of the war most people have no idea about. This is vital to a complete understanding of Hitler and what he did. She makes no judgement calls about the children, but explains in appropriate prose the history of their experience. How many started out in Hitler's Youth, a scout-type program, and how it progressed until many, mostly the boys, ended up on the front lines near the end of the war. She shows how the propaganda Hitler spewed captured the hearts of these children, and they proudly served him, only later understanding that he used them for his own ends. I highly recommend this book be part of any school library - home or public - and it's worth reading.
Gr 5-8-Hitler's plans for the future of Germany relied significantly on its young people, and this excellent history shows how he attempted to carry out his mission with the establishment of the Hitler Youth, or Hitlerjugend, in 1926. With a focus on the years between 1933 and the end of the war in 1945, Bartoletti explains the roles that millions of boys and girls unwittingly played in the horrors of the Third Reich. The book is structured around 12 young individuals and their experiences, which clearly demonstrate how they were victims of leaders who took advantage of their innocence and enthusiasm for evil means. Their stories evolve from patriotic devotion to Hitler and zeal to join, to doubt, confusion, and disillusion. (An epilogue adds a powerful what-became-of-them relevance.) The large period photographs are a primary component and they include Nazi propaganda showing happy and healthy teens as well as the reality of concentration camps and young people with large guns. The final chapter superbly summarizes the weighty significance of this part of the 20th century and challenges young readers to prevent history from repeating itself. Bartoletti lets many of the subjects' words, emotions, and deeds speak for themselves, bringing them together clearly to tell this story unlike anyone else has.-Andrew Medlar, Chicago Public Library, IL Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
Yes, the Hitler youth is mentioned in most young adult nonfiction on the subject, but to see through this lens creates a completely different book! Bartoletti is quickly becoming a nonfiction writer who tops lists with her engaging writing, viewpoint, obvious dedication to research and knowledge of how important pictures are to the telling for this audience. Her book is filled with chilling quotes, anecdotal stories derived from research and interviews, and stories about how Hitler's young were manipulated and used as a primary source of his power and vision for the future. There are many facts revealed that may be new to readers. For example, the required year of service after graduation, the Landjahr, required youth do everything from clearing forests to shoveling "gravel through sieves for seven full hours" and by 1938 "the Reich Labor Service has turned so many acres of forests and swamps into useful land that it made up for nearly all the territory Germany had lost in the Treaty of Versailles." The author threads through the pages the stories of young heroes who stood up against Hitler, such as Sophie and Hans Scholl who wrote and distributed pamphlets until they were executed. 2005, Scholastic, Ages 11 up.
Bartoletti (Kids on Strike!) offers a unique and riveting perspective on WWII by focusing on the young people who followed Hitler from 1933-1945. The narrative primarily focuses on members of the Hitler Youth, but also profiles some of the group's dissidents and its Jewish targets. Hitler began his quest for dominance with young people, recognizing them as "a powerful political force" and claiming, "With them I can make a new world." Bartoletti describes how the propaganda of the Hitler Youth attracted children: "The overnight camping trips, campfires, and parades sounded like a great deal of fun," said one 12-year-old. But the organization also emphasized loyalty to the Third Reich above all (including family-one eight-year-old, Elisabeth Vetter, turned in her parents to the Nazis). The author personalizes the war by placing identifiable individuals at the center of the events, such as Sophie Scholl, who moved away from Nazi ideas as a teen and in college joined the "White Rose" group that published pamphlets detailing Nazi evils and urging resistance-a crime for which she and others were executed. Powerful black-and-white photographs testify to the lure and also the cruelty of the Nazis. Bartoletti's portrait of individuals within the Hitler Youth who failed to realize that they served "a mass murderer" is convincing, and while it does not excuse the atrocities, it certainly will allow readers to comprehend the circumstances that led to the formation of Hitler's youngest zealots. Ages 7-10. (Apr.) Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.

The sun has finally got his hat on! Hip hip hip hooray!
Well, actually, he had it on over the weekend, but seems to have taken it part of the way off again today. The joys of living in Britain.
Anyway, as soon as the sun shines, my thoughts turn to summer foods – picnics, salads, BBQs… and although I didn't actually cook these chickpea burgers on a BBQ, a big fat burger stuffed with salad and drenched in ketchup and mayonnaise is definitely enough to make me feel summery. If you do want to use your BBQ, I'd recommend cooking them in the oven beforehand to let them firm up, and then reheating them later on the grill – you'll still get that charred BBQ flavour, even if they've been pre-cooked.
I used my favourite egg-and-baking method (ha, it's funny because it sounds like egg-and-bacon) for these chickpea burgers to help them stick together – add an egg to the veggie burger mixture and then bake them, and they hold together and firm up beautifully. I did try frying one too, but they were much better done in the oven – which is good, because it's the healthier way of cooking them.
I often find chickpea burgers a bit dry (I'm looking at you, falafel), but the egg in these also serves to keep them nice and moist. The feta helps a lot too – there's nothing better than biting into a juicy, salty chunk of feta cheese in the middle of your burger. When you're making these, make sure you don't cut your feta into pieces that are too tiny – its flavour becomes a lot milder as it cooks, so you need nice big chunks to get the flavour you want.
I stuffed my burger bun with more spinach (because why the heck not), some fresh tomato and a good smear of mayonnaise, and it went down a treat. I used a nice crusty roll too, because I personally find them much tastier than a soft burger bun – but use whatever bread and burger toppings you fancy!
- 1½ x 400g tins chickpeas, drained (360g in total once drained)
- 1 egg
- 120g feta cheese, cut into 1cm dice
- 40g spinach, finely chopped
- 3tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 spring onions, sliced
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Preheat the oven to 190°C (Gas Mark 5 / 375°F).
- Add the chickpeas and the egg to a food processor, and process for 30 seconds or so until a thick paste is formed. Transfer this mixture to a large bowl, and add the feta, spinach, parsley and spring onions. Season with plenty of black pepper and a touch of salt (remember that the feta is salty too), and mix well.
- Shape the mixture into a few burger shapes (I made 5, but you could easily make 4 or 6 if you prefer), and place them on a baking tray covered with baking paper. Place in the oven for around 40 minutes, until firm and golden brown.

The focus 44 is a multi-talent. Its very hard light ensures graphic images, with plenty of contrast. At the same time it is the ideal (and only) companion for a quick, but challenging VIP shooting. Because in just 10 minutes, the light is ready for use and able to light a person from tip to toe from a distance of just 5 feet (1.5 meters).
Compared to the focus 44 the light of the focus 77 is way "softer" and ensures ultra-smooth harmonic progressions. Due to its soft reflective reflector-coatings it covers up some errors in the make-up and smoothes out wrinkles, without appearing flat. That makes the focus 77 to one of the most popular Beauty and Close Up-lights in Photographic and Film studios worldwide.
Compared to the focus 96, the focus 100 creates a much softer light while still being more vigorous than the "Beauty reflector" focus 77. With the focus 100 you can sift out details, animate surfaces or accentuate wrinkles in weathered faces. Good for atmospheric Close Ups, but also for shots from medium distances.
The 115 focus makes a very concrete light, comparable with that of the focus 96. However the focus 115 has an even greater range of lightings between "Spot" and "Flood": hard, soft and everything that's in between. With the focus 115 you can sift out details, animate surfaces or accentuate wrinkles in weathered faces. Good for atmospheric portraits and group pictures, but also for "Still" and "Food."
The focus 140 provides a similarly detailed and crisp light as the focus 115. It is a real Allrounder. Good for portraits, but also for group shots and whenever space is of no relevance. His Inventor H.W. Briese, says of this reflector: "If you have it, you'll never lose."
The focus 180 makes the Briese-principle obvious. Fully focused it creates dramatic lighting with multiple screen differences between the centre and the edge of the picture. Almost like day and night. Perfect for strong accentuations. With just one setup you can create various lighting moods. Those characteristics make the focus be a main character at many fashion productions.
Fashion photographer and filmmaker also love this reflector. It brings the sun into the studio and makes other light sources unnecessary. Another advantage is that this large reflector allows different camera positions, as you can stand directly in front of it during the shoot without casting a shadow.
Anyone who wants to film summer scenes in the winter or to whom a trip to the Caribbean is too expensive, the Briese Sun will help. It makes a consistently hard, sun-like illumination of smaller but also large scenes possible. With clear shadows coming from one direction. Thanks to the maximum power of 12800Ws and a uniquely bright modeling lamp of 1250 watts.
Briese Globe ensures a clean, shadowless main light. In the larger version it is ideal for the illumination of large rooms and halls. With several Globes you can evenly illuminate entire sceneries. Another feature: our globes are foldable and you are able to individually tilt or swivel. Systems from other manufacturers often just work when they're hanging from the ceiling.
The new Briese 1000hz Cinema 4 HMI Ballast guarantees flicker-free shooting with the dual modality of a 'Flicker Free' and '1000hz' setting, removing the uncertainty of using HMI's at frames rates up to 1000fps and beyond by supplying the lamp with 1000hz square wave current. There is also a '50/60hz' silent setting for when sound is a priority. Powering 1200w, 2500w and 4000w lights at the usual 208-240v input, this incredible ballast will now also power both 1200w and 2500w units @ 120v with the included adapters. Like the 2k Tungsten Briese, you can now power a 1200w Briese off house power. Ballast is connected to the power supply with a 220v Bates paddle, and includes DMX in/outputs.
The Celeb 200 DMX LED produces a soft, even wraparound light quality (PRI 95) and produces color faithfully, beautifully on HD or film, in the studio or on location. The Celeb 200 measures 24" x 14" (61cm x 35.5cm) and is similar in profile and light output as the popular Diva-Lite 401.
Kino Flo's new innovative Celeb 400 DMX LED is a soft, cool LED ideally suited for today's growing demands for energy efficient, portable, yet color-correct LED lighting. The Celeb joins the Kino Flo family of Academy Award-winning lighting systems. The Celeb was developed using the latest technology to conform to Kino Flo's highest standards – cool, color-correct, flicker-free and dead quiet, which is what sets the Celeb apart from all other LED's.

Amir Shazad was convinced he had found a contented young wife when he and his British-born cousin Nusrat Ali were introduced and married in rural Pakistan in September 1999.
But Ms Ali, a school laboratory technician and university undergraduate from Middlesbrough detested the arranged marriage and blamed her family for pushing her into it by "emotional blackmail".
She implored British immigration officials to block her new husband's entry to the UK and refused to acknowledge his existence when he finally arrived.
After four years of misery for both of them, Shazad stabbed Ms Ali to death with a 12-inch kitchen knife as she left home for her job at a local secondary school on 17 August last year.
Yesterday, the 30-year-old admitted the murder and received a statutory life sentence. Judge Peter Fox, at Middlesbrough Crown Court, set a minimum tariff of 10 and a half years but said he considered both individuals to have been victims. "I accept you were kept in ignorance of [Ms Ali's resistance to the marriage] until you arrived," Judge Fox told Shazad. "Then, you were caught in a cultural trap from which there was no prospect of release and in which you were throughout consistently humiliated."
Though Ms Ali returned to the UK immediately after the wedding, Shazad's visa application was delayed and he did not join her until January 2003. His marriage was never consummated. James Goss QC, for the prosecution, said Shazad, who had expected to live and sleep with his wife, slept alone in the front room of the home shared by his wife, her mother and her five sisters. He found work in a Middlesbrough cash-and-carry store while his wife pursued an undergraduate degree in biochemistry at the University of Teesside. Within eight months he had been moved into a house next door. On 15 August last year, he was excluded from a family event and confronted his mother-in-law, Nasreen Ali. He was told to wait a year, until she travelled to Pakistan to see his family.
Two days later, at 8.50am, as his 24-year-old wife left the house for Easington Community School, in Co Durham. He pulled her from a car then stabbed her six times in her front garden. Two local men tried to intervene but fled when they saw the knife. Shazad then tried to hang himself. Police arrived at 9.01am - in time to save him but too late for his wife.
In mitigation, Tim Roberts QC said Shazad's wife neither spoke to him nor gave him her mobile phone number.
"In his mother-in-law's home he always ate separately," said Mr Roberts. "The girls ate in another room around a table. He ate sitting on the floor alone in the back room. If there were visitors whilst he was there, the girls would ... remove evidence that he was in the house. They ... would then usher him out of the back door. If there was insufficient time to do that he was locked in a room. Eventually he [took to] locking himself in because that was more convenient. Nasreen Ali would explain away his presence by saying he was an asylum-seeker lodging with the family."
