...known how many of the thousands of families who send their children to so-called therapeutic boarding schools each year receive tuition reimbursement via IDEA. The exact number of therapeutic boarding schools operating in the U.S. is also unknown, since no official body tracks them, but some estimates put the figure at 150 to 300. Tuition is far from cheap. Monthly costs at residential facilities are $5,000 and up; Mount Bachelor, which houses up to 125 students, charges $6,400 per month, and in 2008 revenue for the Aspen Education Group, which owns Mount Bachelor...
...brother hefting a javelin with a bike helmet resting crooked on his head, and Andrew himself, maybe five years ago, doing a cannonball into a pile of leaves.

Immigration law is in dire need of a total policy overhaul. With conservative estimates of 12 million people living illegally within our borders, American society faces several problems. These illegal laborers tend to accept lower wages and zero benefits and are often reluctant to report abuse or maltreatment?...
...Unlike newspapers, TV shows are not competing against new technologies such as blogs. The television show’s only competitor is itself, a Sisyphean punishment for an indefensibly retarded response to the Internet. A show on fox.com is competing with the exact same show on youku.com and tudou.com, Chinese versions of YouTube. Foreigners pine for a taste of the gold standard of entertainment and will find a way to get it. Rather than play a fruitless game of cat and mouse with a billion Chinese, networks and producers ought to harness the potential of this vast audience. Admittedly, there...
