  • 1994 Retrospective
    THE PLAIN DEALER . SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1999 5-G OURCENTURY 1994 ATA GLANCE Schools’ independence bid fails again It looked as though the school board might regain control of Cleveland schools for the first time since 1978. U.S. District Judge Frank Battisti modified his desegregation “re- medial order.” If the board carried out Super- intendent Sammie Campbell Parrish’s “Vision 21” plan, he said, the system could be self- governing by 2000. Voters had defeated a 12.9-mill levy, putting in doubt the system’s ability to complete the plan. Battisti ordered the state to contribute $295 million over six years. In October, Battisti unexpectedly died at the age of 72. In a eulogy, the Rev. Thomas Acker said of the judge, “He suffered willingly the arrows of public fury, a martyrdom in pursuit of justice for children.” In November, voters again defeated the school levy, despite a $400,000 campaign to pass it. In December, a consultant reported that 60 of the district’s 127 school buildings needed major repairs and 12 needed to be re- placed. Dwayne Gardner of Planning Associ- ates said many buildings were “literally fall- ing apart.”A $60 million bond issue passed in 1987 had been mismanaged, he said. As the year ended, the hopes for indepen- dence had faded. Officials feared a new judge would turn control over to the state. • The temperature dropped to 20 below the night of Jan. 18. That was one degree colder than Jan. 24, 1963, the old record. Six deaths in Greater Cleveland and nine others in Ohio were blamed on the cold.

  • Lawyer NEW DEAN TAKES CHARGE
    Stanford FALL 2004 FALL Lawyer NEW DEAN TAKES CHARGE Larry D. Kramer brings fresh ideas, lots of energy, and a willingness to stir things up a bit. Remember Stanford... F rom his family’s apricot orchard in Los Altos Hills, young Thomas Hawley could see Hoover Tower and hear the cheers in Stanford Stadium. “In those days my heroes were John Brodie and Chuck Taylor,” he says, “and my most prized possessions were Big Game programs.” Thomas transferred from Wesleyan University to Stanford as a junior in and two years later enrolled in the Law School, where he met John Kaplan. “I took every course Professor Kaplan taught,” says Thomas. “He was a brilliant, often outrageous teacher, who employed humor in an attempt to drive the law into our not always receptive minds.” In choosing law, Thomas followed in the footsteps of his father, Melvin Hawley (L.L.B. ’), and both grandfathers. “I would have preferred to be a professional quarterback or an opera singer,” he says (he fell in love with opera while at Stanford-in-Italy), “and I might well have done so but for a complete lack of talent.” An estate planning attorney on the Monterey Peninsula, Thomas has advised hundreds of families how to make tax-wise decisions concerning the distribution of their estates. When he decided the time had come to sell his rustic Carmel cottage, he took his own advice and put the property in a charitable remainder trust instead, avoiding the capital gains tax he otherwise would have paid upon sale. When the trust terminates, one-half of it will go to Stanford Law School.

  • 2006 Primary Election Results
    The Hannah Report Special Election Edition May 3, 2006 2006 Primary Election Results Party caucuses held a few surprises Tuesday. There were a number of anticipated blow-outs and several nail-biters, including a seven-way Democratic primary in the 10th House District that was still too close to call at end of business Wednesday. Results remain officially "unofficial" in all races and do not reflect provisional voting. Absentee ballots were also out in Cuyahoga County, where the election board was forced to count votes by hand in the 10th District and other races. A disclaimer at the secretary of state's website notes that results will be final 81 days after the date on which county boards of elections have all completed official canvases, which must be no later than May 23, 2006. Statewide Races U.S. Rep. Ted Strickland (D-Ohio) easily overcame his opponent to win the Democratic caucus for governor by a factor of four. Bryan Flannery was unable to capitalize on allegations concerning a former Strickland staffer arrested for public indecency. On the Republican side, Secretary of State Ken Blackwell banked on a well-organized and financially generous grassroots effort to pass Attorney General Jim Petro for the gubernatorial nomination. In the attorney general campaign, Sen. Tim Grendell (R-Chesterland) acknowledged the inevitability of former attorney general Betty Montgomery's bid for another Republican nomination to her old job, conceding early Tuesday to the sitting auditor. Among Democrats, former Cleveland law director Subodh Chandra won numerous newspaper endorsements -- though not his party's -- for attorney general, which was instead claimed by leading workers' comp critic Sen.
