NC General Assembly Files Common Core Standards Study Bill
Signs that pressure is being brought to bear on legislators in North Carolina over the Common Core Standards surfaced this week. On April 10th, the NC General Assembly filed HB 733 titled The Common Core Standards Study Bill.
This act is to establish a Common Core Standards study board and the overall duties being, “The Committee shall study the implementation of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and the short‑ and long‑term educational, economic, and regulatory impact of those changes on our teachers, administrators, schools, parents, communities, and State.”
Truth In American Education also reported the news along with naming the sponsors HB733:
State Representatives Larry Pittman (R-Concord), Hugh Blackwell (R-Valdese), Rob Bryan (R-Charlotte) and Michael Speciale (R-New Bern) are the primary sponsors.
Truth In American Education in this report lists a very useful Common Core Standards primer for North Carolinian that was put out by the John Locke Foundation. The primer is also available for download at the Truth In American Education site. If you are in North Carolina, I would urge you to do so and also share it with friends.

Stay Classy, Mary-Ann Baldwin (Updated)
Democrats and their ‘New Tone’ — Elevating the discourse to new highs and sad lows, like pets peeing on public buildings like an occupier.
Case in point, Mary-Ann Baldwin, Raleigh Councilwoman. She decided it would ‘send a message’ to the GOP in NC if she took a picture of her dog peeing on one of the pillars at the North Carolina General Assembly and then post it on Facebook. Upon checking her Facebook page, the photo is not there anymore or at least an unfriended user can’t see it. If it was Tweeted, that’s been deleted as well. From the looks of it, the message Baldwin sent went from ‘Dog Pee’ to ‘Retreat’.
It’s alright, WBTW has it memorialized: Continue reading
