I walked into the court room while they were on recess, so I was a little confused about what was going on at first. It was interesting to be a part of the “please rise” standing ritual when the judge walked in. It makes a person wonder why the benches in the public’s seating area are so noisy, it seemed very disruptive.…

Shawntelle Turkey sues the hospital for posting her medical records on Facebook then her information appeared on a Facebook page calling her a "Team No Hoes." She found out through her lawsuit that her medical records were a screen shot, and including her name and diagnosis was posted by a closed member in September.

He felt that Jeremy’s primary behavior was largely related to his failure to work, cooperate, and school truancies rather than his primarily disability of ADD. He acknowledged that Jeremy’s behavior could be a contributing factor of his Conduct Disorder, which is not covered under a learning…

What emotional intelligence qualities allowed Amy Cuddy to be successful after the accident? Of course having her IQ decreased as a consequence of a car accident did not make Amy Cuddy’s life any easier. Sometimes, if not always, life does not work the way we want; the answer a person with a very high IQ might have then is just not the right one to solve the problem and to make things work again as planned. When all that happens, the successful goal one meant to achieve, if everything occurred as planned, will just not be achieved.…

The program evolved into the Education of the Handicapped Act (EHA) of 1970.
