Must We Talk About That Reasonable Accommodation--The Eighth Circuit Says Yes, But Is The Answer Reasonable , Jill S. Kingsbury

Missouri Law Review

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) has been hailed by advocates for persons with disabilities as the most important civil rights act passed since 1964, and as the “Emancipation Proclamation” for Americans with disabilities. Critics of the ADA “cast the law as overly broad, difficult to interpret, inefficient, and as a preferential treatment initiative.” Other question whether the law’s economic benefits outweigh its administrative costs. Empirical data also suggests that “the ADA’s track record in improving employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities appears dismal.” Aggravating the problem, and contrary to the media’s portrayal of the ADA as a windfall statute …

The Influence Of Leaf Shape Of Passiflora Biflora In Heliconius Spp. Butterfly Oviposition, November 2000, Sarah M. Dempsey

Monteverde Institute: Tropical Ecology and Conservation

Between species the leaf morphology of Passiflora (Passifloraceae) differ greatly in leaf shape. These differences may be attributed to the presence of Heliconius larvae, who feed exclusively on Passiflora. Adult females may use leaf shape as an oviposition cue, thus the importance of the changing leaf morphology. This study was conducted in an enclosure in the Monteverde Butterfly Garden where I studied three species of Heliconius butterflies: Heliconius hecale, H. charitonius and H. erato. I studied the oviposition behavior on Passiflora biflora due to the varying leaf shapes present, which are two and three lobed leaves. Egg placement showed that …

"Now you see, John, this... is a perfect example of what happens when you start drinking. You go out, you get drunk, you get behind the wheel, and here you are severely injured. By the way, what's your prognosis?" It was apparent ... that [the Defendant] considered the Judge's question to be of utmost importance. However, it was …

Curriculum And Assessment : A Question Of Politics?, Christine R. Brew, Gilah C. Leder

Australian Journal of Teacher Education

The Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) has been subject to ongoing modifications since its full introduction in 1992. These changes were largely driven by vocal opponents of this educational reform. In this paper we give voice to teachers charged with implementing the curriculum and assessment directives of the VCE. Specifically, we draw on the experiences of close to 500 senior mathematics teachers – through interview and survey data - to consider the impact on them of the evolution of the VCE.
