  2. Lady A's Strawberry Guitar

    A custom guitar, carved into the shape of a strawberry and used by Lady Antebellum on stage is up for auction on <em>eBay</em>. All three members of Lady A autographed the guitar which is now being auctioned for charity. Dave Haywood played the guitar on stage during &ldquo;Our Kind of Love&rdquo; at the <em>Florida Strawberry Festival</em> after festival organizers asked them to sign it for the auction. Money raised will go to the <em>Redlands Christian Migrant Association</em> and will help build new classrooms for charter schools in the area.

  3. School reform doesn't work

    In their commentary (&quot;Six steps for post-Alonso school reform," May 14), Thomas Wilcox, Diane Bell-McKoy and Laura Gamble use many lofty and idealistic sounding words to promote their vision. However, it bears noting that education "reformers" are well-versed in using terms that have an appeal, yet bear little substance. It's part of the script to sell the public on a model for education that actually requires a deeper analysis and understanding. Words like "choice" and "accountability" have done for the corporate-model of education reform what buzz words like "whole grain" and "real fruit juice" have done for the food processing industry. Thus, commentaries such as this warrant a translation. My translation as follows is not grounded in empty rhetoric or phrases, but instead relies on facts and examples from other urban areas, to predict what such school, reform may indeed come to look like in Baltimore. The question will then remain: are we willing to buy this model? Or should we read the label more carefully?
