Daily News education reporter Mensah Dean reports a brief sighting of one of the Would-Be Mayors today at the School Reform Commission: Chaka Fattah showed up to watch the vote on CEO Paul Vallas new contract. (Vallas deal was approved through after sharp rebukes by two SRC members who oppose Vallas, James Gallagher and Daniel Whelan. The vote was 3-2.)
SRC Chairman Jim Nevels introduced Fattah from the stage and called him the education congressman.
This afternoons forecast, by the way: Sunny, but a high chance of an afternoon press release from Fattah congratulating the SRC on its vote.
Comments (29)
What has Fattah done in education besides create a few scholarship programs? By they way, they're great, but isn't there more to educational policy than providing funding to young Philadelphians so they can leave the City, never to return?

Sorry for the huge review, but I'm really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it's the right choice for you.

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

Excellent read, I just passed this onto a friend who was doing a little research on that. And he just bought me lunch since I found it for him smile Thus let me rephrase that: Thank you for lunch!

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

I've been surfing online more than 3 hours as of late, but I never discovered any fascinating article like yours. It is pretty price enough for me. Personally, if all website owners and bloggers made excellent content as you did, the internet shall be a lot more useful than ever before. "No nation was ever ruined by trade." by Benjamin Franklin.

I am always sating hotels and the difference in quality and customer service still amazes me. I have done a lot of travelling through business and pleasure and the difference to me between a nice stay and a great stay is welcoming staff. There is nothing worse than checking into a hotel to find that the staff can't even really be bothered to servce you and show you too your room. I have also stayed at hotels where items of my personal belongings have gone missing after the maids have gone through the place.

Article submission is an extremely powerful process and too be honest I am not sure wether i agree with doing it automatically. My current SEO stratergys for article marketing are fairly simple. I outsouce an article to be written by a professional english writer, the article must contain at least 1,200 words and be of extremely high quality. Next i will submit it to the top 20 article websites based on Page Rank and traffic. After submitting the articles i will then do some basic backlinking and bookmarking to make sure they get indexed by the search engine spiders. I find that doing article marketing this way works extremely effective however i suppose that having the software submit less quality articles to the less dominant websites and then submit to the ones manually that you can't use a tool for with your quality article because at the end of the day quality backlinks never hurt anyone.
