Schools Plan Re-opening, Fall Sports Season Takes Step Forward. See Inside. A2 2 The Record Thursday, August 6, 2020 Littleton Parents Air Questions, Concerns About School Re-opening BY ROBERT BLECHL Staff Writer As Littleton schools set to reopen next month, parents have questions and concerns — lots of them. The Littleton School Board and new superintendent of Little- ton School District SAU 84 held a community input session on Monday as the board prepares to vote on a reopening plan. The 2 1/2 hour meeting drew about 75 residents, all masked and socially distanced, in the Littleton High School cafeteria, as well as 130 residents attending remotely on the Zoom teleconfer- encing application. On Monday, Aug. 10, the board is expected to take a vote on a recommendation from Superintendent William Hart. The draft plan includes three options: traditional face-to-face learning in the classroom for all students (with special accom- modations for students and staff with at-risk medical issues); a full, online learning remote option with no students in school; and a hybrid model that includes classroom time and at-home remote learning on a rotating basis between groups of students and with no more than 50 percent of students in school at any given time. The plan is flexible enough to allow the district to glide be- tween options depending on coronavirus conditions at the start of school year and throughout the year. Cyan Some parents wanted a clear-cut answer on what exactly the school district will do come fall, but Hart said conditions can Magenta change fast and no clear answer can be given. “The plan is all three models and all three models are there because we don’t know how things are going to change,” he said. The Littleton High Class of 2020, the photographs of each graduate on the wall of the school, celebrated their big “Two weeks from now, the environment could change and be- day on Sunday afternoon, taking part in a different kind of commencement because of the pandemic.

  • Hitman: Agent 47' Starring Rupert Friend, Hannah Ware, Zachary Quinto and Ciarán Hinds
    Review: 'Hitman: Agent 47' Starring Rupert Friend, Hannah Ware, Zachary Quinto and Ciarán Hinds Kimber Myers | The Playlist August 19, 2015 at 3:48PM There should be a moratorium on writing “You and I are not so very different,” and its variants in all future screenplays. Screenwriters Skip Woods and Michael Finch didn’t get the memo when writing “Hitman: Agent 47,” treating their audience to that gem of a line as well as dozens of others that are uninspired or sound vaguely familiar if you’ve ever seen another movie. Woods and Finch have a history with franchises, separately penning the scripts for “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” “A Good Day to Die Hard” and “Predators” with Finch slated to tackle “Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters 2." Even the last of those films, the sequel to the reviled "Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters," likely has a better script than the final product here. “Hitman: Agent 47” boasts everything from flaws in logic to a flood of lines so terrible and unoriginal that they elicited giggles from a room full of critics at the press screening. These are people who see bad movies for a living, but they were still affected enough by the bad dialogue here that they couldn’t hold it in. As for intentional laughter, the film is humorless for most of its running time, until the final act when cracks are made only to completely miss their mark. 20th Century Fox "Hitman: Agent 47" Based on the successful video game series, “Hitman: Agent 47” is a reboot of the 2007 film “Hitman,” which starred Timothy Olyphant in the title role.

Six ans passent au cours desquels Chéri a beaucoup appris de la belle Léa, aussi Madame Peloux décrète-t-elle qu’il est grand temps de songer à l’avenir de son fils et au sien propre... Il faut absolument marier Chéri à la jeune Edmée, fille unique de la riche Marie-Laure. Alors que le moment fatidique approche, Léa et Chéri tentent de se résoudre à cette séparation imminente tout en s’apercevant qu’ils sont beaucoup plus attachés l’un à l’autre qu’ils ne voulaient bien l’admettre. LES COURTISANES Surnommées les “grandes horizontales”, les courtisanes étaient de biens. Elles ne pouvaient monnayer que leur personnalité très en vogue dans le Paris de la fin du XIXe siècle. et leur beauté et les plus perspicaces d’entre elles savaient que leur prestige ne survivrait pas à leurs charmes.

  • An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England
    An Open Letter on Behalf of Independent Schools of New England, We, the heads of independent schools, comprising 176 schools in the New England region, stand in solidarity with our students and with the families of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. The heart of our nation has been broken yet again by another mass shooting at an American school. We offer our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of those who died and are grieving for the loss of life that occurred. We join with our colleagues in public, private, charter, independent, and faith-based schools demanding meaningful action to keep our students safe from gun violence on campuses and beyond. Many of our students, graduates, and families have joined the effort to ensure that this issue stays at the forefront of the national dialogue. We are all inspired by the students who have raised their voices to demand change. As school leaders we give our voices to this call for action. We come together out of compassion, responsibility, and our commitment to educate our children free of fear and violence. As school leaders, we pledge to do all in our power to keep our students safe. We call upon all elected representatives - each member of Congress, the President, and all others in positions of power at the governmental and private-sector level – to take action in making schools less vulnerable to violence, including sensible regulation of fi rearms. We are adding our voices to this dialogue as a demonstration to our students of our own commitment to doing better, to making their world safer.

  • The Young Victoria Production Notes
    THE YOUNG VICTORIA PRODUCTION NOTES GK Films Presents THE YOUNG VICTORIA Emily Blunt Rupert Friend Paul Bettany Miranda Richardson Jim Broadbent Thomas Kretschmann Mark Strong Jesper Christensen Harriet Walter Directed by Jean-Marc Vallée Screenplay By Julian Fellowes Produced by Graham King Martin Scorsese Tim Headington Sarah Ferguson, The Duchess of York 2 SHORT SYNOPSIS The Young Victoria chronicles Queen Victoria's ascension to the throne, focusing on the early turbulent years of her reign and her legendary romance and marriage to Prince Albert. SYNOPSIS 1837. VICTORIA (17) (Emily Blunt) is the object of a royal power struggle. Her uncle, KING WILLIAM (Jim Broadbent), is dying and Victoria is in line for the throne. Everyone is vying to win her favor. However Victoria is kept from the court by her overbearing mother, THE DUCHESS OF KENT (Miranda Richardson), and her ambitious advisor, CONROY (Mark Strong). Victoria hates them both. Her only friend is her doting governess, LEHZEN (Jeanette Hain), who is seemingly as untrustworthy as the rest. Victoria’s handsome cousin, ALBERT (Rupert Friend) is invited to visit by her mother. He's also the nephew of her Uncle, KING LEOPOLD OF BELGIUM (Thomas Kretschmann). It's obvious that Albert has been coached to win her hand. At first she's annoyed as she has no intention of being married. She never wants to be controlled again. However Albert is also tired of being manipulated by his relatives. Victoria and Albert talk openly and sincerely and become friends. When he returns home she grants him permission to write to her.
