Hay, WU TANG'S BACK. HE DOES GET PRACTICE.
"The question is: Would someone in the same position at UH-Manoa be fired for the same thing?" Wooten said. "She should have been given some warning and some opportunity to correct the situation."
Wooten said the UH-Hilo athletic department finished the 2006-07 fiscal year with a $180,000 surplus.
Wooten said various factors played a role in the 2008 deficit, including the closings of Aloha Airlines and ATA, which limited options for team travel — a major expense for every athletic department.
Wooten also said the school added three new sports during McNally's tenure.
Wooten said McNally asked for additional money from the school to start up the new men's sport and was denied, thus leading McNally to believe that the Title IX funds were expected to cover all three new sports.
The suit alleges that Kakugawa-Leong linked the budget deficit to McNally's termination and made other "false claims" in press releases.

ANOTHER HAPPY CAMPER
Lani Tachera
I have experienced similar discrimination and conflict of interest within the HCRC. I had submitted 1400 pages of email documents evidencing retaliation at the Hawaii DOE and asked repeatedly for them to subpoena additional prima facie evidence from the DOE. This the investigator failed to do. I have appealed their recommendation of closure with no cause -- for heaven's sake -- I was threatened numerous times verbally and estranged family members were contacted and given my address to write me for some nebulous reason to have me telephone them. Additionally, 500 pages of the 1400 pages I submitted to the HCRC was stolen in the US mail when I had it delivered to a friend who then delivered it to a Hawaii process server. AFter the threats, I feared for my life and left Hawaii -- due to who had threatened me. These Hawaiian KKK have their own little torture methods AND pay off in one way or another the officials they chose to.

You Don't Look So Bad In A Crowd.
Especially When The Whole, Doesn't Look So Good
Report Says Hawaii Fails to Keep New Teachers
HONOLULU -- A national look at teacher quality gives Hawaii bad marks for not supporting new teachers or retaining good ones, according to the Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
The State Teacher Policy Yearbook said most states do a poor job evaluating and keeping good teachers.
About 2,900 public-school teachers in Hawaii are not considered qualified by the federal government, according to a private consultant.
That means about 22 percent of the state's 13,000 public-school teachers do not qualify under the No Child Left Behind law

HAWAII TOLERANCE

School discrimination probe results in deal
The investigation by the Office for Civil Rights of the U.S. Department of E ducation was not a lawsuit and did not involve a money settlement. Instead, the state Department of Education agreed to carry out 26 corrective actions.
The girl was afraid to report the attack because school policy was to suspend anyone in a fight, without regard to who was the attacker and who was the victim.
Mohr said her daughters are now in high school, but a teacher at the intermediate school told her Samoans are now a target. "It's still happening," Mohr said.sults in deal
When Mohr called the mother, the woman said the attack took place because "you don't know Jesus."
Mohr said her daughter's at Kealakehe Elementary School in 2004, and her jaw was dislocated the same day and her head was repeatedly slammed against a concrete wall .

ANY HARDENS IN THE FAMILY?

Dr. Donnis H. Thompson virtually founded
women’s collegiate athletics in Hawaii. She
was one of the individuals who inspired my
authorship of federal Title IX legislation by
highlighting the inequities in funding of women’s
collegiate sports. During her 30 years at
the University of Hawaii, Dr. Thompson pioneered
numerous health and athletic programs.
She served as Hawaii’s first woman
Superintendent of Education, was the first
Women’s Director of Athletics at the University
of Hawaii, and authored the innovative ‘‘Vision
of Excellence,’’ a 10-year blueprint for public
education. Dr. Thompson has been a state
and national leader in promoting girls and
women’s participation in sports and in promoting
civil rights.
Donnis Thompson is the recipient of the Dr.
Martin Luther King, Jr., National Outstanding
Service Award, a member of the University of
Hawaii Hall of Fame, and an Honor Fellow of
the National Association of Girls and Women
in Sports. April 15, 1981 was proclaimed as
‘‘Donnis Thompson Day’’ in the State of Hawaii.
Donnis is a dear friend and one of the
women whose opinion and advice I value
most highly. Today I celebrate her life of
achievement and the positive impact she has
had on improving opportunity for women in
Hawaii.
