The education department now approves sponsors that oversee the schools. Sponsors can be school districts, universities or nonprofit groups and each can manage up to 50 charter schools. The state continues to approve new sponsors — nine since last summer — bringing the number to 67 across Ohio. In Dayton, the biggest change came when four Richard Allen charter schools switched to Kids Count of Dayton, a new sponsor group, from Cincinnati-based St. Aloysius Orphanage. Krista Allen, superintendent overseeing Kids Count's nine schools statewide, said it was founded by the board of directors for the West Park Academy, a Dayton private school. But two other local charters with past academic or management troubles also changed sponsors after one year.

Whingeing Aussies bring themselves down
When we are not complaining about something, we are gossiping shamelessly about Britney Spears' latest tragedy, our best friend's failing marriage or about who is having sex with whom. Just read the papers, watch the current affairs shows, and listen to the talk at work. Notice how it makes you feel inside? It is addictive behaviour, it is destructive and it is nasty. We are in the habit of complaining about what is wrong with everything - including ourselves - without making changes in ourselves or offering open hearted, enlightened suggestions for changes in our systems. We blame, envy and complain. We hate the Government, we are angry with our parents, we resent paying our taxes, we hate the corporations, our employers just want to rip us off, we envy those who have too much and we despise those who have too little.
