  • The Osborne Landtill Was Used for Many Years by Numerous Companies and Individuals in and Around Grove City Es a Place to Dispose of Unwanted Waste
    SUMMARY OF COOPER INDUSTRIES, INC. INVOLVEMENT IN THE INVESTIGATION OF THE OSBORNE LANDFILL RI/FS The Osborne LandTill was used for many years by numerous companies and individuals in and around Grove City es a place to dispose of unwanted waste. In 1981, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Resources (DER) began their investigation of the need to clean up this site under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation end Liability Act (CERCLA or "Superfund"), 42 U.S.C. §9601 et sea. The efforts by U.S. EPA and Pennsylvania DER have involved the continuing cooperative effort of Cooper Industries, inc. whose C-B Reciprocating Division plant in Grove City used the Osborne Landfill to dispose of its foundry sand. EPA has identified parties who owned or operated this site, or who sent waste to it, including General Electric Corporation, Ashland Chemical Company, and Wolfe Iron & Metal Company (now Castle Iron & Metal). Typically, such parties, known as Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs), attempt to reach agreement with the government to perform the investigative and remedial work at their expense. This avoids the need for the government to spend Federal Superfund monies for the task. It also has been shown that these privately funded projects are done more efficiently and at less cost than those done by government contractors. This is in the best interests of these PRPs, because the government can require them to reimburse the Superfund for all such expenses that are performed consistently with the National Contingency Plan (NCP), 40 C.F.R.

  • An Educator's Guide to Islamic Religious Practices
    An Educator’s Guide to Islamic Religious Practices Demographers say that Islam is one of the fastest growing religions in the United States and around the world. American Muslims are found in all sectors of society. This presence is perhaps most evident in the public school system, where Muslim students of various racial and ethnic backgrounds make up an increasing percentage of the school population. Recent studies show that most Muslim children are enrolled in public schools. This growing demographic segment adds a new dimension to be considered as educators work with issues of diversity. Across faith communities, religious practices have many similarities, although the details of time and procedure may differ from one religion to another. The information contained in this booklet is designed to assist teachers, principals, administrators and other educators in formulating and implementing policies and programs that will help to create a culturally sensitive and supportive academic environment. It will also serve as a guide for the accommodation of religiously- mandated practices of Muslim students and their families. The information in this guide outlines general Islamic beliefs and practices. Individual applications of these observances may vary. Glossary of Muslim Terms Eid (EED): A day of festivity, major religious holiday. Halal (Hah-LAAL): Permissible by Islamic law. Hij’ab (Hee-JAAB): Clothing Muslim women wear in public. It is generally loose-fitting and includes a head covering. Jum ‘ah (JOO-mah): Friday congregational prayer, the Muslim weekly worship service. Kufi (KOO-fee): A cap sometimes worn by Muslim men. Qur’an (QUR-aan): Islam’s scripture, sometimes spelled Koran.

  • ACLU Defense of Religious Practice and Expression
    ACLU Defense of Religious Practice and Expression The ACLU vigorously defends the rights of all Americans to practice their religion. But because the ACLU is often better known for its work preventing the government from promoting and funding selected religious activities, it is sometimes wrongly assumed that the ACLU does not zealously defend the rights of all religious believers to practice their faith. The actions described below – over half of which were brought on behalf of self- identified Christians, with the remaining cases defending the rights of a wide range of minority faiths – reveal just how mistaken such assumptions are. (The list below includes only recent examples.) * * * * The ACLU and ACLU of Michigan (2018) secured an accommodation for an Air Force JAG officer to wear hijab. https://www.aclu.org/blog/religious-liberty/free-exercise-religion/aclu-client-makes- history-first-air-force-jag-corps The ACLU of West Virginia (2018) ensured that the city of Wheeling continued to allow a Catholic woman to offer her home for hospitality and fellowship to those in need. https://www.ncronline.org/news/people/catholic-worker-house-allowed-stay-open The ACLU and ACLU of Delaware (2017) reversed a school’s decision to suspend a Muslim high school student who wears a kufi. The school agreed to allow the student to wear his kufi in school, amend district policy, and provide training on students’ religious freedom rights. https://aclu-de.org/news/aclu-de-protects-students-rights-to-religious- freedom/2018/01/09/ The ACLU and ACLU of Minnesota (2017) joined a friend-of-the-court brief supporting a Seventh-day Adventist whose employer revoked her job offer after she asked for a religious accommodation.

All Parvez had to do was board a plane, endure the frightened stares of his fellow passengers as he walked his bearded, brown face down the aisle, settle into his seat, remember not to take his crusty sneakers off because his socks invariably stank, take a brief nap, awaken to the shouts of a white nationalist terrorist announcing he was hijacking the plane, then offer himself as a hostage to said terrorist, then as the terrorist was binding Parvez’s hands, break free, strike the terrorist in the tento pressure point Guru Dave had taught him, watch the terrorist go limp in his arms, then present the terrorist--in a headlock--to the rest of the plane as if to say Well isn’t this an interesting subversion of mainstream narratives?, and there would be applause from the other passengers, amongst whom there was at least a few pretty girls-- maybe even a couple Muslims and definitely at least one “into Eastern religions”--who might appreciate his act of heroism, who would appreciate his modesty, who would offer their numbers, or better yet emails, without him even asking.
