WCPSS

WCPSS, How ironic that the school district lawyers are threatening to withdraw their children from nearby schools and drive 5 to 10 miles private, charter or parochial schools if the school board increased the number of students assigned to their neighborhood school. Could it be that their “neighborhood” has increased … encompass all of Wake County? Was not this the home base when WCPSS has been created? High standards and expectations in each school reflect our community values and helped to balance resources. For 35 years, governors and the cooks, the presidents of banks and ATMs, doctors and nurses, lawyers and clerks, school teachers and university groundskeepers all chose to send their children to schools Wake County public. The inclusion of “neighborhood” and its schools have been so good that families across the United States went to Wake County in droves because of its high school.

Proximity does not equal a good education. So, for proponents of school district, stop hiding behind “not in my neighborhood schools” and give us an actual plan based on research, resources and regional community input.

Waff Weather, (AP) – Charlie Sheen was hospitalized Tuesday for a psychiatric evaluation of a woman told police he threw furniture and screaming in his hotel room, a police officer said. His publicist blamed an allergic reaction to a drug.

Police were called to the Plaza hotel security about 2 hours and Sheen appeared intoxicated, the official said. The actor was not arrested and went voluntarily. The official was not authorized to speak publicly about the meeting and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.

Sheen publicist Stan Rosenfield said the 45-year-old was to be published Wednesday.

“Charlie has an adverse allergic to certain drugs and was taken to hospital,” he said.

It is not known who the woman in the hotel room was. Sheen was in New York on a family holiday. His ex-wife, actress Denise Richards, and their two children, Sam, 6, and Lola, 5, were also staying at the hotel in another room, the official said.

Police have not received any complaints from the hotel on any damage. A message left at the historic hotel at the foot of Central Park was not returned.

Sheen, star of CBS ‘Two and a half men, “has had past problems with alcohol and drugs that have earned him legal trouble.

In August, he pleaded guilty in Aspen, Colorado, for the crime of third degree assault after an altercation on Christmas Day with his wife, Brooke Mueller Sheen. Prosecutors dropped charges more serious and he has avoided jail, instead sentenced to 30 days in a rehabilitation center, 30 days probation and 36 hours of anger management.

Mueller Sheen, who is the mother of twins with Sheen, told the police that the actor threatened to kill her and brandished a knife after she told him she wanted a divorce. Charlie Sheen said they argued, but he denied having threatened, and he told police he was upset by the threat of divorce.

Previously, he experienced a bitter divorce and custody battle with Richards. His publicist said Tuesday she had no comment on Tuesday’s meeting hotel.
