Heartbreaking story. Can you imagine if this kind of thing happened at the workplace. There would be million-dollar lawsuits against the employer, but since it's a public school and it's just kids, no one takes it seriously.

Another state goes right-to-work.

On February 25, 2004, Angus King was appointed to the board of W.P Stewart & Co. Ltd., a Bermuda-based investment company. Not much is known about Angus's time at this mysterious Bermudian investment cartel which caters to the world's super-rich. Aside from the pink sand, that's one of the advantages of home-basing in Bermuda. What we do know is that by January 5, 2009, W.P. Stewart's value had declined so badly that the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) delisted it. On June 3, 2010, the company announced that it was parting ways with King as part of a reorganization that favored a "more stream-lined corporate structure going forward" than the structure that King and his fellow board members had provided. Since then, the firm has been able to post much better results in its performance summary.
Note: King was just elected Senator for the State of Maine and is heavily involved in the wind fiasco.

Does Consumer Spending Improve The Economy?

Four of the nearly 50 self-driving cars now rolling around California have gotten into accidents since September, when the state began issuing permits for companies to test them on public roads.
Three involved Lexus SUVs that Google Inc. outfitted with sensors and computing power in its aggressive effort to develop "autonomous driving," a goal the tech giant shares with traditional automakers. The parts supplier Delphi Automotive had the other accident with one of its two test vehicles.
John Simpson, a longtime critic of Google as privacy project director of the nonprofit Consumer Watchdog, pointed out that the company's ultimate goal is a car without a steering wheel or pedals. That would mean a person has no power to intervene if a car lost control, making it "even more important that the details of any accidents be made public—so people know what the heck's going on."
