A review of Marcin’s transcript will show that he is an outstanding and highly motivated student, as evidenced by his classroom performance. He has consistently taken a full schedule of accelerated and Advanced Placement courses with an emphasis in math and science. As a sophomore he took AP European History and AP Calculus BC; as a junior he took AP Language and Composition, AP U.S. History, AP Physics 1, and Multivariable Calculus and Differentiated Equations; this year he is enrolled in AP Literature and Composition, AP Psychology, AP Statistics, and AP Physics C. Additionally, he completed three years of Spanish at the accelerated level, and has been a four-year member of East’s Gifted Lyceum and band programs (more about that later). Although the focus of tonight’s recognition is on extra-curricular achievement, we can’t overlook Marcin’s academic performance. Mark Dobner, Maine East mathematics teacher shared the following reflection: “Marcin was in my AP Calculus BC class two years ago and was enrolled in my Multivariable Calculus and Differential Equations class last year.

  • On the Origin of Skilled Forelimb Movements
    TINS August 2000 20/7/00 12:09 pm Page 372 R EVIEW On the origin of skilled forelimb movements Andrew N. Iwaniuk and Ian Q. Whishaw Homologizing behaviour was once considered unreliable, but the application of modern comparative methods has been shown to provide strong evidence of behavioural homologies. Skilled forelimb movements were thought to originate in the primate lineage but in fact are common among tetrapod taxa and probably share a common origin in early tetrapods. Furthermore, skilled movements are likely to have been derived from, and elaborated through, food-handling behaviour.In addition,it is now thought that the role played by the lateral and medial descending pathways of the spinal cord in the execution of skilled forelimb movements could be synergistic, rather than the exclusive responsibility of an individual pathway.

  • Hillary Clinton (Hillary Diane Rodhamclinton)
    Hillary Clinton (Hillary Diane RodhamClinton) Estados Unidos, Secretaria de Estado Duración del mandato: 21 de Enero de 2009 - de de Nacimiento: Chicago, Illinois, 26 de Octubre de 1947 Partido político: Demócrata Profesión : Abogada ResumenEl nombramiento de Hillary Rodham Clinton como secretaria de Estado por el nuevo presidente Barack Obama, su rival en las primarias del Partido Demócrata, marca un nuevo hito en la carrera de la política más célebre de Estados Unidos. Su matrimonio con Bill Clinton convirtió en 1993 a esta abogada con fama de feminista y radical en una primera dama con cometidos cuasi gubernamentales, si bien se la recuerda sobre todo por la crucial defensa de su relación conyugal con un presidente infiel acorralado por el escándalo Lewinsky. En 2000 ganó el mandato de senadora por Nueva York y siete años después, escorada ya al centro moderado, lanzó una briosa precandidatura presidencial que sin embargo no pudo imponerse al fenómeno Obama. En enero de 2009 Clinton ha tomado las riendas de la política exterior estadounidense invocando una "diplomacia inteligente" para manejar los graves conflictos y desafíos internacionales. http://www.cidob.org 1 of 15 Biografía 1.

Una dinámica abogada de causas sociales casada con el gobernador Clinton Nativa de Chicago, desde los tres años vivió en Park Ridge, un suburbio de la principal urbe de Illinois, junto con sus dos hermanos menores y sus padres, Hugh Ellsworth Rodham (1911- 1993), antiguo instructor de la Armada durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y ahora propietario de una pequeña pero boyante empresa de estampados textiles, y Dorothy Emma Howell (1919), ama de casa, miembros ambos de la Iglesia Metodista.

I was determined to make the most of the opportunities that were now available to me, as my personal philosophy has always entailed pursuing a perfect balance between athletics and academics, whilst modeling the importance of health and wellness.” On behalf of the faculty and staff of Maine East High School, I am pleased to name Chrisavgi-Danai Kotsifas as one of “District 207’s Best” for her achievement in extracurricular activities. The quote above was shared with me by Theresa Bonifazi from Chris’ application for a Senior Leader scholarship and I believe it summarizes Chris’ personal journey at Maine East. From all accounts, Chris has been an outstanding person throughout her career at Maine East in the classroom, in student organizations, and as an athlete. Chris has taken a number of Advanced Placement and Dual Credit courses including AP Biology, AP Calculus BC, AP Statistics, AP Language and Composition, AP Macro/Micro Economics, AP Physics 1, Virtual Enterprise International (she was selected as CEO), College Accounting Accelerated, and Entrepreneurship to name just a few. She has also been active and influential as a member or Physical Education Leaders Program for the past two years.

  • Maine East High School
    MAINE EAST HIGH SCHOOL Proposed Building Improvements The 89-year-old Maine East building lacks a secure front entrance. The floor plan is extremely dated and there are accessibility issues throughout the school. Reconfiguration of classrooms and labs will promote collaborative learning and leverage instructional technology. While the special education, fine arts, career and technical education, and athletics programs have evolved, the facility has not and the proposed plan addresses those needs. Plan Highlights: Proposed Floor Plans • Construct a new secure front entrance to prevent visitors from entering the high school before being cleared by personnel. • Replace outdated plumbing, electrical and mechanical systems to extend the useful life of the existing building, reducing costly Third Level emergency repairs and improve energy efficiency. • Update classrooms and labs to create flexible learning spaces that leverage instructional technology, allow for new teaching methods and promote collaboration. • Relocate the offices of the counselors, deans, psychologists and other support personnel into one area of building. This will enhance student access to these important services while also maintaining student privacy/confidentiality. Second Level • Right size and relocate the special education spaces to better meet the needs of students in these programs. • Expand and update the undersized fine arts spaces. • Create collaboration zones throughout the school for students to study individually and in small groups. Main Level • Relocate and improve the Library Media Center to increase functionality and access by all students and staff. • Add an elevator to the East section of the building to provide access to the second floor athletic areas. • Provide a first-floor, handicapped-accessible hallway connecting west wing of the school to center court, improving students’ traffic flow and access throughout.
