| Let there be victory: Hyundai Genesis trumps Lexus GS 350 in comparo | | 2008-08-21 13:38:00 | | InsideLine, no strangers to luxury, recently put the Hyundai Genesis up against the kind of competition the Korean automaker wants to be associated with: the Lexus GS 350. The GS 300 first came out in 1993 and had the luxury re-defining LS and ES for siblings; at the time, Hyundai was still making do with Excel, Sonata, and Scoupe, and parking any of them next to a Lexus would have laid bare the gulf. Now the marques are going head-to-head. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what we call progress.Still, issues of cost -- and perception -- skew the comparison slightly. The V8 Hyundai goes up against a V6 Lexus, because adding two more cylinders to the Lexus would have meant a $12,000 difference. As it is, there's still almost $8,000 between them. And there's the fact that the Lexus and the Hyundai don't exactly compete with each other (we'd have thought an ES comparo would make more sense) in brief, either.Nevertheless, it's not a bad bout, and it turns out to be one of the closest fights I... | | By: Car News | | |

| Seventh Circuit: NCLB trumps IDEA | | 2008-02-15 11:42:00 | | The United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit has issued an interesting opinion inBoard of Educ of Ottawa Township High School District 140, et al., v. Margaret Spellings, Secretary of Education, et al., No. 07-2008. The Court affirms the District Court's dismissal of a challenge of NCLB as inconsistent with IDEA but not for lack of standing as the District Court had held. Instead, the Court ruled that NCLB, which was enacted in 2001, must prevail to the extent that there are inconsistencies with IDEA, the portions of which that were at issue were enacted between 1970 and 1990. You can find the decision at http://www.ca7.uscourts.gov/tmp/AU0PHBSR.pdfThe court did allow an interesting loophole. At the end of the opinion the Court noted that the challenge was to the entirety of NCLB, and the Court left open the possibility that portions of the Act, or specific regulations promulgated thereunder might yield. The claim against the entire statute was, however, too weak to allow... | | By: Special education Law | | |
| | When Policy Trumps Persons | | 2008-01-29 07:00:31 | | I was looking back for a post where I explained pieces of the journey with John, but I can't find it. So I guess those of you who know all about it already will have to be patient and hear it again. Or skip this entry all together. Or skim. Of course, I'm assuming that you care enough to have remembered the details. Maybe I'm egotistical there. If you're like me, you may not have room in your brain to remember my life when you're so busy trying to remember your own.Back in the fall we started to hear rumors that John was going to be returning to our town after Christmas to live in foster care. I immediately knew it was a bad plan and began to make phone calls. I of course, explained to the caseworker why I felt it was not a good idea and was told we would just have to "agree to disagree." I reminded him as I have multiple times, that this was a CASE for him that he could close some day, but that the decisions he was making were going to affect John's lives and ours in a major ... | | By: Never a Dull Moment | | |
| | 'Premiere' Event Trumps NFL Mini-Camp | | 2007-05-18 23:07:26 | | Mini-Camps are a time for teams to get together as a group for the first time, rookies and vets alike. These camps are scheduled at the descretion of the team, and viewed as an important first step in the development of a team during the off-season. Below is the full schedule -- The Broncos, historically, have held their mini-camps late in the off-season, close to the start of full-fledged training camp. Shanny's explanation for the late mini-camp is simple. It keeps the guys fresh, and makes sure there is never a ton of down time for the players. It all makes sense. There is another reason, and based on two teams experience having their mini-camps this coming weekend it appears Shanny is on the right track. Two incoming rookies, Green Bay's Brandon Jackson and Indy's Anthony Gonzalez are currently entangled in a situation that could be described in one word as ridiculous. Both want to attend their first mini-camps with their new teams, but the NFL is saying they c... | | By: Mile High Report | | |
