Expert says recycled water is the way to go (The Norman Transcript) Eastern Oklahoma Utility Crews Stay In SW Oklahoma To Restore Power (News On 6 Tulsa) College Basketball Capsules: Double Downey: SC star scoring like Pistol Pete (The Brownsville Herald) Resolved Question: Is foreclosure a good idea? if we let the house go we will be able to rent a nice house for a couple years and be able to buy things we have not been able to afford in the past and save money for our future ect. so just by what i have read we should be able to bounce back quickly and get a house in 5 years. (I understand that it wont fall off for 7 years) but we have termites and need the roof replaced and owe homeowner dues of 800$ so it just seems logical to take the hit. we tried a short sale with the only offer we had but our lending company wont let us do a short sale! NEED ADVICE PLEASE Resolved Question: Is this not beyond a joke? * SEVENTH PLACE * Kathleen Robertson of Austin , Start scratching! * SIXTH PLACE * Carl Truman, 19, of Los Angeles , California won $74,000 plus medical expenses when his neighbor ran over his hand with a Honda Accord. Truman apparently didn’t notice there was someone at the wheel of the car when he was trying to steal his neighbor’s hubcaps. Scratch some more… * FIFTH PLACE * Terrence Dickson, of Bristol , Pennsylvania , who was leaving a house he had just burglarized by way of the garage. Unfortunately for Dickson, the automatic garage door opener malfunctioned and he could not get the garage door to open. Worse, he couldn’t re-enter the house because the door connecting the garage to the house locked when Dickson pulled it shut. Forced to sit for eight, count ‘em, EIGHT days and survive on a case of Pepsi and a large bag of dry dog food, he sued the homeowner’s insurance company claiming undue mental Anguish. Amazingly, the jury said the insurance company must pay Dickson $500,000 for his anguish. We should all have this kind of anguish. Keep scratching. There are more….. Double hand scratching after this one.. * FOURTH PLACE * Jerry Williams, of Little Rock, Arkansas, garnered 4th Place in the Stella’s when he was awarded $14,500 plus medical expenses after being bitten on the butt by his next door neighbor’s beagle - even though the beagle was on a chain in its owner’s fenced yard. Williams did not get as much as he asked for because the jury believed the beagle might have been provoked at the time of the butt bite because Williams had climbed over the fence into the yard and repeatedly shot the dog with a pellet gun. Pick a new spot to scratch, you’re getting a bald spot.. * THIRD PLACE * Amber Carson of Lancaster , Pennsylvania because a jury ordered a Philadelphia restaurant to pay her $113,500 after she slipped on a spilled soft drink and broke her tailbone. The reason the soft drink was on the floor: Ms. Carson had thrown it at her boyfriend 30 seconds earlier during an argument. What ever happened to people being responsible for their own actions? Only two more so ease up on the scratching…. *SECOND PLACE* Kara Walton, of Claymont , Delaware sued the owner of a night club in a nearby city because she fell from the bathroom window to the floor, knocking out her two front teeth. Even though Ms. Walton was trying to sneak through the ladies room window to avoid paying the $3.50 cover charge, the jury said the night club had to pay her $12,000 …. oh, yeah, plus dental expenses. Go figure. Ok. Here we go!! * FIRST PLACE * This year’s runaway First Place Stella Award winner was: Mrs. Merv Grazinski, of Oklahoma City , Oklahoma , who purchased new 32-foot Winnebago motor home. On her first trip home, from an OU football game, having driven on to the free-way, she set the cruise control at 70 mph and calmly left the driver’s seat to go to the back of the Winnebago to make herself a sandwich. Not surprisingly, the motor home left the freeway, crashed and overturned. Also not surprisingly, Mrs. Grazinski sued Winnebago for not putting in the owner’s manual that she couldn’t actually leave the driver’s seat while the cruise control was set. The Oklahoma jury awarded her, are you sitting down? Are we, as a society, getting more stupid….. or are more members of Congress serving on juries these days? Resolved Question: This is no Joke just Facts? It’s time again for the annual ‘Stella Awards’! For those unfamiliar That’s right; these are awards for the most outlandish lawsuits and verdicts in the U.S. You know, the kinds of cases that make you scratch your head. So keep your head scratcher handy. Here are the Stella’s for the past year: * SEVENTH PLACE* Kathleen Robertson of Austin , Texas was awarded $80,000 by a jury of her peers after breaking her ankle tripping over a toddler who was Start scratching! * SIXTH PLACE * Carl Truman, 19, of Los Angele’s , California won $74,000 plus medical * FIFTH PLACE * Goes to Terrence Dickson, of Bristol , Pennsylvania , who was leaving a house he had just burglarized by way of the garage.

Even ABC refuses to toe the line on this. “In Oklahoma, recovery.gov lists more than $19 million in spending — and 15 jobs created — in yet more congressional districts that don’t exist.” 19 million, to create 15 jobs…that’s change I can believe in! Well, if that district existed… “A Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel review found a sanitation department in Douglas County, Wis., that admitted to a typo that resulted in an estimate of 100 jobs saved or created, when the actual number was five.” How do you commit that typo? “$90,000 per each job saved or created” Would it be cheaper to just pay them to stay home and watch Oprah?

To Whom It May Concern: This letter is to appeal the denial of my re-admission to The University of Texas at San Antonio. It has come to my attention that I was denied admission due to my low GPA at The University of Oklahoma Norman Campus. I would like the admissions department to reconsider their decision once they have reviewed the situation that resulted in the low GPA at the previous University. Voting Question: What do you think of states amending the “no child left behind” ? 6 States OK’d to Write Education Laws Outside ‘No Child’ FOXNews.com 0 It’s a softening from how No Child Left Behind currently works — with schools having to take certain steps at specific times for missing math and reading testing goals. Critics have complained that the approach is too rigid and treats schools the same regardless of whether they miss the mark by a little or a lot. The states getting more freedom under a pilot program are Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Illinois, Maryland and Ohio. Education Secretary Margaret Spellings made the announcement during a speech Tuesday in Austin, Texas. The states that won approval have come up with plans to more closely tailor solutions to individual schools’ problems and focus resources on schools in the worst shape. “We expect to see a closer fit between the causes of school underperformance and a focused attention at repairing those sources of failure,” said Margaret Raymond, director of an education think tank at Stanford University and the chair of a panel that reviewed the state proposals. Examples of changes the states plan to make include requiring schools to offer tutoring earlier than is currently called for and a greater reliance, in Indiana for example, on testing throughout the year to catch academic weak spots. In Florida, schools with low-performing students will likely be assigned teachers who have experience teaching similar students successfully. Maryland is placing more emphasis on training principals. It’s common under the law for failing schools to replace their principals. “We think principal leadership is key. It’s not just changing a principal, it’s ensuring principals have the necessary skill sets,” said Maryland schools superintendent Nancy Grasmick. In Georgia, the state is spelling out that schools can become charter schools, which are public but operate with broad independence, earlier than is currently called for, said the state’s superintendent of schools, Kathy Cox. Some critics worry the changes, specifically the focus on the worst-performing schools, will take the pressure off schools that are generally doing well but having trouble with one group of students — such as a minority group or kids with disabilities. “I don’t think it’s taking the pressure off. I think it’s allowing focus,” Cox said. Spellings has said up to 10 states will be allowed to try to participate in the pilot program. The Education Department plans to review additional state proposals this fall. The six states that won approval were among 17 that sought it. The states that didn’t win approval were Alaska, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Spellings said in an interview that the efforts by the states that won approval to try new approaches will be closely watched and will shape any future rewrite of the six-year-old No Child law. “We’re trying to set the table for a strong and sensible reauthorization,” Spellings said. “We’re going to learn some things.”

Resolved Question: Am I at risk of being terminated for an off-duty altercation with an on-duty manager? Here’s the conflict: I entered the store once again to my manager stating that I was causing chaos and distracting my girlfriend from working. However, I disagree because I hadn’t even spoken to her but a few times that evening. This manager refused to close the store even though a state of emergency had been declared, the highways were shut down, and darkness was approaching. As this manager angrily demanded I leave, I stated I was only trying to help, but he continued to say I was nothing but a distraction. I was instantly angered at this notion and presumed to tell him that he lacked the fortitude and ineptness to make a moral decision to send these remaining employees home. He then presumed to threaten to call the cops if I didn’t not immediately vacate premises. I then began to leave, and as I left I said, “You’re a piece of shit, and you have no respect for your employees.” I then left the building, and I did not return. I did work today, however, this manager was not scheduled. I spoke casually to the store manager, ops manager, and sales manager without mention to this altercation. I just thought I would let it go. However, an employee was told I was “probably going to be fired” for the altercation. Now my question is this… Would it be wrongful termination if I am let go? There are multiple witnesses, and many of these people were individuals I was helping. This manager and I have gotten along for the most part up until this time, but he does have temper problems. I agree I was wrong to argue, but I was there on my own time ONLY to be of help to my friends and co-workers. In my opinion, this guy should have let these employees go. He put their lives in danger by keeping them, (I’m not saying it was his call alone, I honestly am unsure of this decision) and my intentions were good.
