    Section 504 and IDEA contain two concepts that affect the planning and design of facilities used by students with disabilities. The first concept—appropriate education—requires that schools provide all students receiving special education services with an individualized education program (IEP). The IEP specifies the levels of performance, goals, and educational services to be provided and the extent to which students will participate in general education programs. Appropriate education has no statutory or regulatory definition and is, therefore, decided on a case-by-case basis. Court decisions and other rulings suggest a two-part analysis can be made to determine appropriateness: Were the procedural requirements set forth in IDEA met, and did the IEP benefit the student?…

    Borlaug

    In 2011, with the seventh million person born on this planet, the prediction that the population would outrun the food supply was proposed by Malthus (19th century) and Ehrlich (Population Bomb, 1968). Norman Borlaug was a scientist that won a Nobel Peace Prize because of his efforts in providing food for half the world through a green revolution. When criticized about his work, Dr, Borlaug simply responded saying that, “the real problem was not his agricultural techniques, but the runaway population growth that had made them necessary” (1). I believe that human beings are mouths to feed, rather than minds to cultivate. This is because if Malthus and Ehrlich could predict what would happen in the sense that the population would outrun the food supply in the 19th Century, than the people that have survived till today’s date have been a waste of resources. The new generation is founded on the basis of the letter I. What this means is that instead of collectively as a group of people taking responsibility to generate new and exciting ways to make/produce even more food from less resources, we tend to leave it up to less than 1% of the population to handle the situation.…

    Boeuf Bourguingnon

    Boeuf Bourguignon is a delectable beef stew. It originates from the Bourguignon region in France. Bourguignon or “Burgundy” in English, is 62 miles southeast of Paris, stretching over 223 miles. Bourguignon has more than 2000 communes or “villages”, and is known for its astonishing architecture, excellent wines, and rich cuisine. Today, Boeuf Bourguignon is famous throughout the world, thanks to prodigious French chef Auguste Escoffier, who first published the recipe in the early 20th century. Over time, the recipe evolved from peasant fare to haute cuisine, and Escoffier’s 1903 recipe became the standard, using a whole piece of beef in the stew. Later on, Julia Child used beef cubes instead of a whole piece, bringing Boeuf Bourguignon to a whole new generation of cooks. This dish is prepared by braising the beef in a full-bodied, classic red (Burgundy) wine. It is then stewed with potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, and well-seasoned (during the stewing process) with a bouquet garni , or a small satchel of thyme, parsley, and bay leaves. Traditional preparation of this dish is two days, to continually tenderize the meat and to intensify the flavors of the stew.…
