- Episode Description
- Here and Now, Virtual Schools, An appeals court in Waukesha ruled that the home based, online schooling offered by the Northern Ozaukee School District at the Wisconsin Virtual Academy broke several state laws. The court ordered the state to stop paying for students to be enrolled in the Wisconsin Virtual Academy because most of its students are from outside the Northern Ozaukee District. Last year, that district received more than $3.5 million in open enrollment funding to run the online school. This ruling could cut short 11 other virtual schools across Wisconsin, not to mention leaving some 850 Wisconsin virtual academy students up in the air. SC Monitoring Panel, There will be a new bipartisan panel monitoring the integrity of the Supreme Court during the 2008 Election Season. The panel and its goal was announced this week by the President of the State Bar of Wisconsin, Tom Basting, who, in full disclosure, also serves as a president of WHA. WI Project for Nuclear Arms Control, American Intelligence released Monday says that Iran halted its Nuclear Weapons Program in 2003. Is it true?

The Dangerous Book for Dogs', A new book that will be a great holiday read for your dog. It's called 'The Dangerous Book for Dogs'. It's written from the perspective of dogs.
