Social-emotional development is given only incidental attention. Families must be prepared to take up the slack. Otherwise students’ emotional growth may be impeded, resulting in diminished social skills, motivation, and ability to cope with stress. This book describes how public schools have changed and provides strategies for helping your child to thrive. Liane Brouillette is an associate professor of education at the University of California, Irvine. Drawing on her experience teaching in public schools in the United States and Europe, she explains how budget cuts, along with LIANE BROUI state and federal mandates, have stretched American teachers thin.

    Undercover Power Play One Friday afternoon in 1983 the phone rang. “Hi, is that Bill Smith? This is Mick Jagger.” Art designer, Bill smith, looked around his studio to see who the prankster was. It was no prank. It was Mick Jagger and he liked the work of Bill Smith Studio. Jagger asked Smith to make a meeting the next Monday and he did. Smith discussed ideas about the new album Undercover with Charlie Watts. Smith was asked to come up with some visuals by that Friday for a band meeting in New York City. Smith was met at JFK airport by a white stretch limo that dropped his stuff at the Central Plaza Hotel and then drove on to Jagger’s New York Residence for a meeting with Jagger, Watts, Ronnie Wood, and Bill Wyman. Smith said, “The cover idea they all loved was a montage of each guy’s head with the head of an animal or a bird or a reptile- ‘undercover’- do you see? I think I prepared two really good montages one of Mick and a cheetah and one of Keith and a panther, the other montages were very rough and needed a lot of work still, to make them really look good, but they all seemed to like the initial idea including the inner bag concept which was some amazing Victorian illustrations of different apple varieties…” Smith’s idea was resurrected in 1992 Jagger told Smith everyone loiked the idea but because by Albert Watson in Los Angeles Keith Richards was not at the meeting he asked Smith where Jagger was photographed with to stay in New York for a few days and complete al the a cheetah for the 25th anniversary of artwork for the album cover and its inner sleeves, while Rolling Stone magazine.
