What Are The Issues? Although public schools may teach about religious holidays holidays, schools may not observe holidays as religious The federal Equal Access Act, passed in 1984 http://www.pta.org/ptawashington/issues/religion.asp
Extractions: If you are a PTA member and would like additional information about this issue, click here Issues involving religion in the public schools remain highly controversial and politically charged. To resolve confusion regarding religious expression in our nation's public schools, the U.S. Department of Education developed guidelines for school officials, teachers, students, and parents on the important issue of religious freedom consistent with constitutional requirements. The guidelines are drawn from Religion in the Public Schools: A Joint Statement of Current Law , developed in 1995 by 35 religious groups. National PTA and the Freedom Forum jointly published in 1996

Extractions: ARC Postdoctoral Fellowships FAQ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (REV. 9/5/99, Page 1) Health Insurance -If, and only if, a postdoctoral fellow is receiving compensation in addition to the stipend, the health insurance choices are the same choices that are available to UCHC staff. The range of choices includes HMO, POE, or POS-type coverage. The health benefits officer for the UConn Health Center can provide more detail. If a postdoctoral fellow is not receiving additional compensation, then he/she must purchase his/her own coverage. Upon presentation of a receipt, the postdoc training program can reimburse the fellow for this disbursement, but only for health insurance costs for the individual postdoc fellow (not for family or dependents). Position Title There is no title for the position other than Postdoctoral Fellow. This is not a faculty position. Grant writing and grant submission We can teach you about grant writing and help you to develop a grant application that you could submit upon securing a faculty position. However, according to institutional and NIH regulations, postdoctoral fellows are not permitted to submit grant applications to NIH or to serve as a principal investigator. The only minor exception to this rule is the F32 grant application (which is an application for an individual postdoctoral fellowship). We typically cover grantsmanship topics in the seminar every other year. Can we change the start date specified in the offer letter?

Ed083102: How To Teach Religion In Public Schools New York school district, and a federal judge ordered doesn t arise when teachers teach about religion by permit the celebration of religious holidays in school http://www.heritage.org/Press/Commentary/ed083102.cfm
Extractions: Earlier this year, a kindergartner named Kayla was told she couldn't pray with her friends during lunch. Her family filed suit against her New York school district, and a federal judge ordered the school to allow the girl to pray while the trial proceeds. This situation probably never would have arisen if school officials had been properly cognizant of a string of Supreme Court decisions in recent decades that have clarified students' rights and responsibilities under the law regarding religious exercise and free speech. Ignorance of these decisions has led to school policies, as in Kayla's case, that chill legal religious practice and that cold-shoulder the legitimate and legal teaching about religion in such subjects as social studies, literature, history, and geography. According to the Constitution, the American people are guaranteed the right to practice religion free from government intervention. But interpreting the First Amendment clause "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof" has not been easy, particularly pertaining to public schools. Nonetheless, the High Court has said, generally speaking, that voluntary student expression and the study of religion are protected but proselytizing and school-sanctioned or teacher-led prayers are not.
Religious Expression In North Carolina Public Schools The answers reflect the law as established by US Supreme Court decisions and federal statutes. Q. May schools teach about religious holidays? A. Yes. http://www.jus.state.nc.us/cr/religion.htm
Extractions: The United States Constitution guarantees religious liberty through the First Amendment which says that the government "... shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof... " Both parts of this guarantee of religious libertythe Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clauseapply to public schools because public schools are entities of the government. Public schools are not required to be "religion-free zones." The Constitution, Congress, and the Courts permit a wide range of voluntary religious activity in and around public schools. An individual's right derived from the Free Exercise Clause to engage in religious activities in school or on school property must frequently be balanced with the Establishment Clause and the necessity of maintaining public schools for their intended educational purposes. The proper balance between these competing interests is the subject of constant judicial review. The following questions are frequently asked by school officials and others. The answers reflect the law as established by U.S. Supreme Court decisions and federal statutes.
Extractions: UNION-TRIBUNE April 8, 2004 Every Fourth of July, the city of Del Mar closes half of Coast Highway to nonresidents in an effort to keep "those people" away from the public beaches. Del Mar is consistently the only city in the county that enforces parking meters on weekends, state and federal holidays. Del Mar intentionally has adjusted signal-light timing and changed the operational characteristics on Camino Del Mar (Coast Highway) to purposefully make it more difficult to access the core of downtown Del Mar. Del Mar has indicated it wants to seek funds from SANDAG to change Camino Del Mar to one lane to make it still more difficult to access downtown Del Mar. The irony is that the purpose of SANDAG is to promote, not frustrate, transportation planning. This is even more incredible when one considers that Coast Highway is the only North County coastal thoroughfare other than Interstate 5. Encinitas and Oceanside have demonstrated it is feasible to have vibrant downtowns and still have two through lanes that can readily accommodate the traffic. Code enforcement efforts to eliminate encroachment onto public lands are not difficult, especially when the California Civil Code expressly provides that individuals cannot obtain rights to public land merely by occupying them.

ACTION: Proposed rule. SUMMARY: The Department of Defense (DoD) is proposing a rule that identifies a process for evaluating appropriate response actions on closed, transferred, and transferring military ranges. Response actions will address safety, human health, and the environment. This rule contains a five-part process that is not inconsistent with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) and is tailored to the special risks posed by military munitions and military ranges. All closed, transferred, and transferring military ranges will be identified. A range assessment will be conducted in which a site-specific accelerated response (various options for protective measures, including monitoring) will be implemented. If these measures are not sufficient, a more detailed site-specific range evaluation will be conducted. Recurring reviews will be conducted, and an administrative close-out phase also is included. DATES: Written comments on this proposed rule will be accepted until December 26, 1997.

By Marc Grobman OpEdNews.Com Ever since Howard Dean entered the presidential races, and continuing to this day, the mainstream media continue to label Democrats, liberals, lefties and progressives as too angry. Thats disturbing. The media didnt claim the Bush Administration had an anger hang-up as it locked up people without trials. It didnt accuse it of being angry when it attacked Iraqis with cluster bombs and artillery shells made with radioactive depleted uranium. So when the media outs us as hotheads, we must have a desperate need to chill out.
