Back in September, we here at The Policy Minute shared with you the 2016 median household incomes of schools in the highest and lowest percentile rankings in the old (pre-2017) Massachusetts school and district Accountability system. Districts with the highest and lowest ranked schools continue to show wide disparities between their education spending and the foundation budget and the capacity of the the communities to increase education spending based on median household income. Since our data were publish, the 2018 school and district rankings were published using the NEW accountability system. What has changed? Not much. Districts with schools in the 99th percentile have median family incomes that exceed $108,000 annually. Districts with schools in the bottom 1% of rankings still include Boston, Holyoke, Fall River, Lawrence and Springfield. All cities with median household incomes below $58,516. Oh, and Holyoke and Lawrence have been under the control of the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education as Chronically Underperforming Districts.

Why can't Eric Hoskins and Bob Bell see that they are repeating past mistakes?
In a recent blog I had written about the Barer-Stoddart report. This report was widely blamed for suggesting that medical school enrollment in Canada could be reduced by 10 per cent in the early 1990s. However, a more detailed look at the report reveals some interesting parallels to 2017.
Barer-Stoddart is not online, as it predates the internet. I read it, and what's really important to remember is that there were numerous recommendations, all of which had to be done in order. There first needed to be investments in team-based care, allied health professionals and much more, and ONLY if those investments were made could you then proceed to reduce the number of physicians.
Unfortunately, instead of implementing the report fully, Premier "I am Super Elite" Bob Rae's NDP government simply picked and chose which recommendations were politically expedient. They cut the number of physicians without ensuring supports for the general public were present and created the largest physician shortage in recent memory.
Ontario Health Minister Eric Hoskins speaks with reporters on Dec. 19, 2016.
Fast forward to 2017. Health Minister "Unilateral Eric" Hoskins and his deputy health minister, Bob Bell, appear to be repeating the mistakes of the 1990s. Desperate to build a legacy in health care that will ameliorate their disastrous reign atop the health ministry, the two of them are pushing forward on the Patients First Act (PFA).
The PFA, however, is based on the Price-Baker report. This report studied population-based funding for primary care. In simple terms, this model proposes to create 84 regions in Ontario called "sub-LHINs." Each sub-LHIN will be given X dollars to cover all the primary care needs of the people in that region.
And you know what? This concept actually has merit! In the United States, there is a similar model called an Accountable Care Organization (ACO). It's been shown that when set up properly, with proper IT support and an administrative structure that breaks through the silos amongst the different, disparate group of health-care providers, ACOs provide higher quality care at lower costs.
Why then is the PFA doomed to fail?
Unilateral Eric and Deputy Bob have cherry picked the most politically expedient parts of the report and ignored the rest.
For the same reason Barer-Stoddart failed 25 years ago. Instead of implementing the Price-Baker report completely, Unilateral Eric and Deputy Bob have cherry picked the most politically expedient parts of the report and ignored the rest.
For example, one of the most essential features required to implement this is a strong health-care information technology infrastructure. This would allow different health-care providers to share relevant information about patients in order to optimize their care. In Ontario, the only place that comes close to having this kind of infrastructure is in the Georgian Bay region (where I was honoured to be the founding chair of the Family Health Team). My patients benefit significantly because of secure electronic communication between physicians, pharmacists, the hospital and several of the homes for the aged in the area.
However, this system doesn't exist anywhere else in the province, and it's an absolute prerequisite to implementing the changes proposed in Price-Baker.
Additionally, Unilateral Eric and Deputy Bob have chosen NOT to go ahead with the vertical integration of multiple services. This essentially means bringing multiple agencies under one roof to reduce administration costs. Kind of like a mergers and acquisitions do. (A certain boorish loudmouth had suggested this a while back). But the PFA really only gets rid of the CCACs (probably because they are the source of yet another Liberal scandal). Public health, municipal agencies and other social agencies that Price-Baker wanted vertically integrated are left alone, even though that's where the savings come from.
Also, Price-Baker stresses the importance of patient accountability. The expectation is that patients need to take some responsibility for their health care. Just because someone can go to the emergency department every day at no cost to them (but certainly to taxpayers), doesn't mean they should.
Patient accountability is clearly a touchy subject as my colleague Adam Stewart found out. He suggested patients should simply think before they access health care services. Adam did not suggest that people should pay for the services. But read some of the comments under his blog. "Absurd." "Shame on you." "It takes a lot of gall." And of course suggestions that this was somehow promoting two-tier care. But the reality is that some element of personal responsibility is absolutely necessary in the running of any health-care system. I can understand why Unilateral Eric and Deputy Bob ran from this, but it's still cowardly.
It seems the majority of front-line doctors remain disinterested in participating in planning for this.
What we have in the PFA is a cherry-picked version of Price-Baker. A version that increases the number of bureaucrats (84 more vice-presidents to be hired!), but does not provide the infrastructure to link health-care agencies or the vertical integration that is so badly needed to reduce inefficiencies in health care. The silos between most health-care organizations will still be there.
These are just some of the reasons that the Section of General and Family Practice (SGFP) executive has recommended to all family physicians that they NOT participate in planning activities for the PFA. This recommendation was recently re-affirmed but the executive. As currently constructed, the PFA will not put money where it's most needed — front-line care.
Unilateral Eric is a Rhodes Scholar. Deputy Bob has more letters after his name than Kellie Leitch. Why can't they see that they are repeating past mistakes?

Hafal Practice Leader strikes gold!
Hafal Practice Leader Keith Jones has won a Gold award at the prestigious Wales Care Awards 2011.
Keith, who works at the mental health charity's Bridgend project, was presented with the Promoting Fulfilled Lives Award at a ceremony attended by Health and Social Services Minister Lesley Griffiths AM at City Hall, Cardiff on October 21st.
Keith was nominated for the award by a service user who has moved from Hafal's halfway house in Bridgend to his own accommodation.
The service user said: "Everybody who has worked here and has lived here has enjoyed his company. He is fun to be with and is friendly and understanding."
Keith, a native of Pyle, Bridgend, worked as a taxi driver for six years but an interest in the caring profession saw him switch to work with adults with learning disabilities. Keith says he derives great satisfaction from seeing service users achieve their goals.

Chefs change things up in Clonakilty
His business has survived through the recession, six major floods, two years of road works and is still going strong — with the recent addition of a weekly Curry Club, for the next 12 months. KATE RYAN catches up with the man behind Richy's Cafe & Restaurant in Clonakilty
EXCITING TIMES AHEAD: Meeran Manzoor, Head Chef, Richy's Restaurant and Richy Virahsawmy, owner of Richy's Restaurant, Clonakilty.
THE restaurant business is hard work, even more so if you are a chef-owner! A continual cycle of cooking, maintenance, ordering, staff, paperwork and promotion — all the things that make a restaurant function.
This is the reality for Richy Virahsawmy, restaurateur, TV chef and farmer who moved to West Cork 18 years ago with his Finnish wife, Johanna Simi, establishing a restaurant with a reputation for good food synonymous with Clonakilty.
For 17 years, through the worst recession of recent memory, six major floods and two years of extensive road works, he and his team have kept the restaurant going and growing!
Did I forget to mention his farmstead, Carrigfadda Farm, established primarily as an experience to understand what it takes to grow and rear the food that appears on restaurant plates?
Richy's Café & Restaurant operates as a café by day, restaurant by night as well as offering a cookery school, pizza takeaway service, private and event catering.
It's an enterprise that works hard to service a vast array of customers, whether it's a daily cup of coffee or a group looking for a dining experience with a personal touch.
Virahsawmy is a ball of energy. On the morning we meet, he is just off the phone from RTÉ who have asked him to their Cork studio later that day to do a Vegan Cookery Demo live on air. A curved ball for sure, but one for which Richy doesn't even break his stride to manage.
That aside, Richy has 30 years in the kitchen under his belt. His children are growing up fast, and at the end of 2017 Richy's father passed away. It signalled a time to change things up, a decision leading to appointing Meeran Gani Manzoor as his new head chef in a carefully managed move, allowing Richy to gradually exit the kitchen full time.
But why the change of heart?
"When my father passed away, it was a very difficult time and the end of a chapter. Meeran was already on my radar a year prior to that. He joined us as a Sous Chef in February, 2018, signalling the start of a new journey and a new direction. Our skill here has always been ongoing movement and changing what the restaurant offers, so I decided to take a step sideways and bring in a really good Sous Chef."
It was soon evident that Meeran had Head Chef potential — a position he was promoted to in September last. This year, Meeran's influence will be apparent on the new season menus as he takes charge of recipe development and building on his exposure to the vast larder of food producers in the region.
Part of the strategy for this latest reinvention is developing the guest experience.
"Having Meeran in place has allowed me to come out on the floor a lot more and engage with guests. It has developed a really good harmony between the kitchen and front of house, and I can train my team about the produce we use and the food Meeran is creating so the passion for the food we interact with can be translated back to the guests through the menu and the guest experience we deliver."
Meeran's career to date has seen him work in London's Dorchester Hotel and at two Michelin star standard venues in Belgium, but West Cork is presenting Meeran with a different challenge — the change of pace! In a busy city restaurant, the pressure is year round; in West Cork the long hours are confined to the busy summer season with winter offering plenty of time to enjoy what's on our doorstep.
"It's no good being a chef that's burnt out," says Virahsawmy, "and I see it all the time. This is why we moved here, because it offers a work life balance that is essential for a healthier and happier lifestyle."
With a shortage of qualified and experienced chefs in Ireland, Meeran ticked a lot of boxes for Richy.
"Meeran is an amazing chef. Bringing him in as a Sous Chef meant I could mentor him on the business of running a restaurant. As well as developing an understanding of the locality of what he is cooking, he is meeting producers like Avril Allshire of Caherbeg, going foraging in Courtmacsherry for wild garlic or meeting a seafood supplier — experiences that many chefs rarely get to do."
Meeran says, "More than cooking, Richy is giving me insights into the business. I'm learning everything from changing a fuse to ordering and cooking. This is how I develop from a chef to a chef owner.
"Most of my inspirations come from street food from around the world and find a way to elevate them to restaurant standard. I'm from Chennai on the east coast of India originally, so naturally many of my influences come from there. I always try to mix and match, the hidden flavours in my food are always Indian spices: turmeric in carrot soup, cumin in the peanut crumble that accompanies our Jacobs Ladder, or the aromatic spiced brine for our RFC," (a cheeky riff on the West Cork penchant for a deep fried chicken goujon!).
"When you take a bite of something that has been carefully spiced, you might not know what's going on, but the flavour will stick into your mind forever. Indian cuisine is so vast, it's like a sleeping legend that hasn't woken up yet!"
This new playfulness around the versatility of spice led to the launch of Richy's Curry Club, a weekly gathering to excite the palates of those looking for a taste of warmer climes.
Despite Richy's Mauritian and Meeran's Indian heritage, both are at pains to point out that neither are curry chefs. Rather, use of spice is part of the natural melting pot of their home cookery, and the Curry Club is as much about a journey of discovery for them as chefs as it is for their diners.
"The Curry Club is a journey about heritage and not a reflection of our professional culinary backgrounds; but it will be authentic and fun," says Richy. "Spice doesn't have to mean chilli heat, in fact many curries don't use chilli at all! It's about aromatics, balance and a deep understanding of how to use spices. Every week, for a year, we will showcase the wide array of curry styles and flavours from across India."
It starts with Meeran's native Chennai, home of the Madras curry and famous for its use of sweet/sour tamarind. Both chefs will cook live in front of diners, and food served Thali-style — a series of small bowls containing curry's, pickles, condiments, vegetables and rice to make a complete and balanced meal.
"There will be a bit of theatre to the experience and plenty of interactions, a really unique guest experience and an opportunity to learn something new."
As well as the new menu and Curry Club, keep an eye out also for Richy's new season of hands-on cookery demonstrations and new season menus. www.richysrestaurant.com

→ Check out more Brad Mehldau Trio Clips
The trio format has been Brad Mehldau's preferred musical unit for much of his performing and recording career. The first Brad Mehldau Trio album, and the first in the Art of the Trio series, came out in 1996.
Since the 2005 release, Day Is Done, Jeff's been forging ahead with the trio, adding to the unique and exclusive character which also happens to be the result of extensive playing and relentless dedication. Whether it's the trust between the players or the pure joy of unregulated musical experimentation, the art of this collective is to set new standards while maintaining a harmonious sense of familiarity. The reputable status reached through the musicianship, the compositions and the overall quality of the Brad Mehldau Trio, hasn't in any way led to an artistic stagnation or comfort-decline. Instead, the musical conversation within the group seems to be encountering repetitive growth spurts, resulting in a steady flow of new and exciting music. Filled with progressive energy, also partially guided by a natural embrace of artistic reinvention, the trio sets a new standard again and again.
With the release of "Seymour Reads The Constitution" Mehldau, Grenadier and Ballard are at it again, pushing the envelope of what it means to play within a trio ensemble. DownBeat Magazine goes as far as suggesting that the albums performance of "Spiral" "is strong enough that it might set a new bar for what counts as The Art of the Trio".
There's never a dull moment when it comes to the joy and inspiration represented by this truly legendary formation. Stay tuned for more!
JEFF BALLARD FAIRGROUNDS
→ Check out more Fairgrounds clips
Jeff Ballard Fairgrounds makes music that feels like the 21st century – open, fluid and ever-developing, a sound informed by jazz but truly coming to life where worlds collide: acoustic and electric, swinging and ambient, analog and digital, accessible and experimental. The foursome features Ballard with guitarist-vocalist Lionel Loueke, keyboardist-vocalist Kevin Hays and Reid Anderson on electronics. Additional players include Mark Turner, Pete Rende and Chris Cheek, the latter of which will be part of the current tour line up.
Musically diverse, sometimes very bold and unexpected, Jeff Ballard Fairgrounds does not have a fixed or pre-established repertoire, the music mostly evolves from sound inspirations brought in by Ballard and his companions, taking on different forms as the ideas evolve and expand. A group with an unusual timbre drawing from their individual and combined strength.
Referring to the name of the band, Ballard says: "You know how you go to the fairgrounds for an amusement park or a festival, and there are all these rides and games – all this cool, fun stuff happening? That, to me, is like the sound of this band, the Fairgrounds. There are all these different personalities in the group that enable the music to go in different directions, often turning on a dime. It sounds like a thrill ride to me."
The debut album is set for release in January 2019. Sign up for Jeff's mailing list to keep track of announcements and tour dates.
→ Check out more Jeff Ballard Trio clips
Keeping with the formula Ballard prefers using with his groups, this trio with guitarist Lionel Loueke and saxophonist Chris Cheek continues to play from a highly diverse repertoire of music which contains both originals and covers. From something like the high energy rock and roll song ELEPHANTS by Queens Of The Stone Age or the blues rock tune Blinded By Love by Johnny Winter, to the 1930's ballad I Let A Tear Fall In The River, performed by Ella Fitzgerald and Chick Webb Orchestra. Tunes with west African, Caribbean, and South American sensibilities to straight ahead Bebop heads, this band's music is high-level free-wheeling fun. Listening to the band's music is like an adventurous trip on the wide open road. They investigate it all their musical surroundings.
This trio has a sound that is an equal mixture of electric and acoustic. Cheek is one of the early explorers of combining electronics with the saxophone, electronically enhancing the sound in a variety of ways combined with the sax. Apart from having a uniquely beautiful sound acoustically on the tenor, which is immediately identifiable, he can make the tenor's effected sounds be like a wha wha guitar or bass guitar. He can create something which sounds like an electronic orchestra or big band.
Cheek's sonic palette and musicality balances perfectly with Lionel Loueke's multi-directional tastes and love of experimentation. Loueke's sounds and music are uniquely his own. He's built his bank of sonics and repertoire of songs over the course of his life. From Benin to NY, traveling and playing all kinds of music. He makes sounds ranging from a simple acoustic guitar playing a bossa nova to something which sounds like a raging elephant stomping through the jungle. Lionel is comfortable playing a melody like a rare electronic birdsong, or a classic Charlie Parker bebop line, to a Jimi Hendrix inspired distortion warp. Loueke's versatility and musical sensitivity is of the highest order.
The rapport between players is extraordinary. Playful, intelligent, and risky playing. The group can go anywhere musically because of their shared knowledge and respect for traditions found in so many kinds of music. The Adventurous spirit they bring, the enjoyment towards each other's playing, their common respect and great depth of musical understanding, the love that they share towards song and groovy beats is how one might best try to describe this band's essence.
→ Check out more FLY Clips
In the era of individual "star" instrumentalists, the idea of a truly collective trio can be a difficult concept to fathom. Yet collectivism is what the FLY trio strives for; and collectivity is what they so unabashedly and unquestionably achieve. Ballard, Grenadier and Turner represent three rather distinct musical personalities- simultaneously complimentary and contrasting –who have created a cohesive unit that expresses each part while creating an uniquely realized whole. In other words, they celebrate the group, without sacrificing the individual.
"FLY is progressively bringing together many musical elements, traditions, histories and mysteries," says Turner. "Multiplicity is presented under an unassuming hat. Meaning, we are working toward saying it all without saying it all, expressing complexity by simplicity. Musically speaking, we are creating songs that can be heard on a number of levels and from a variety of different viewpoints."
Although, drummer Jeff Ballard, bassist Larry Grenadier and tenor saxophonist Mark Turner have individually charted very distinct and highly successful musical careers—one, both or all have graced the performances and recordings of Chick Corea, Joshua Redman, Brad Mehldau, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Pat Metheny, Charles Lloyd, to name just a few -- the formation of the trio seems, in retrospect almost inevitable. FLY needed to happen.

Conspiracy theories are nothing new. Conspiracy theories that escalate into Twitter beef and rap battles, however, are a sign of new and changing times.
Rapper B.o.B, who you may remember from the breakout 2010 single "Airplanes," recently threw himself back into relevance when he sent out a flurry of tweets on Jan. 25 claiming that he believed that the Earth is actually flat.
His explanations included that the Earth's curve wasn't visible to him from over 16 miles, and that GoPro cameras sent above the earth were using "curved lenses" to falsify the appearance of a round planet.
Neil deGrasse Tyson, a well-known science communicator and director of the Hayden Planetarium in New York, intervened in a few short tweets.
A few were educational – Tyson mentioned that while the Earth's curve does block visibility, most buildings are tall enough that they pass the curve, and we can see them from miles away – and a few reminded readers that conspiracy theories can be harmful when influential people hold them.
"Flat Earth is a problem only when people in charge think that way. No law stops you from regressively basking in it," Tyson tweeted to B.o.B at the end of their short online exchange.
B.oB was not convinced. After the Twitter conversation died down, he took to the recording studio and released a diss track titled "Flatline (feat. Neil Tyson)." Yes, you read that right.
Tyson would not be silenced.
Soon after "Flatline" was released, Tyson responded with his own track, with the help of his rapper nephew Stephen J. Tyson. Titled "Flat to Fact," the track uses the beat from Drake's song "Back to Back" and drops some hard truths.
Stephen J. Tyson mixed facts ("What about the change of seasons?/The planet spins around the sun, do you need more reasons?") and typical rap-beef status boasting ("I'm in the Hayden Planetarium getting shoulder rubs"), and many of us believed this beef was over. Neil deGrasse Tyson, with the help of his nephew, had won by a landslide.
The short feud ended on Jan. 27, when Tyson made a surprise cameo on The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore, where he walked onstage eating a sandwich. He put down the sandwich, picked up a mic, and finished the discussion once and for all.
"Small sections of large, curved surfaces will always look flat to little creatures who crawl upon it," Tyson said, before adding, "and by the way, this is called gravity" and dropping the mic.
As the dust settles, it's up to us to decide what to take away from it. Is it a sign of our ignorance that "flat-earthers" continue to gain traction in our society, or was this feud an opportunity for Twitter users to learn something new?
Tyson has over four million Twitter followers. If even one of them gained some knowledge on our planet as a result of this, then this might have been the most positive Internet beef of all time.


Patricia Rodway was browsing for a birthday card with dachshunds on for a dog-loving friend one Sunday morning in WHSmith in Taunton.
Valentine's Day had just passed and it was time the store started start looking forward to Mother's Day on March 30.
Next to the card aisles is a trapdoor to the basement where stock was kept, and two employees had been working in tandem all weekend to pass products up and restock the shelves.
What happened next led to the high street stationery giant receiving the biggest fine for serious health and safety breaches in its 225-year history.
There were no barriers around the hatch and on February 16, 2014, Mrs Rodway walked into it.
A member of staff who was not "wholly attentive" reacted by grabbing the now 64-year-old, but was unable to stop her fall.
Mrs Rodway caught a chain holding the trapdoor open and slammed it shut behind her. She fell into the stairs and down the 2.8 metres gap.
She suffered multiple injuries including a cut to her heel which required three operations to rebuild and spent 17 days in hospital.
It could have been worse. At the sentencing hearing at Taunton Crown Court, prosecuting counsel Jonathan Bates said she "could of course have been killed".
His Honour Judge Ticehurst said it was "abundantly clear" that her injuries had a "devastating" effect on her and on her way of life. "It's a tragic accident, an unfortunate accident," he told the court.
An investigation by Taunton Deane Borough Council concluded the incident was "foreseeable and preventable".
It found inadequacies in the system of work, in which the staff member on the shop floor was also expecting to be "guarding" the open trapdoor to stop customers or anyone else on the trading floor falling into the hole.
There was no guarding or signage around the hatch and there was no written risk assessment in place for the procedure.
"There is plenty of guidance available to help businesses manage work at height safely, including on the Health and Safety Executive's website."
Trapdoors have been used in two other WHSmith stores, the council's probe found.
The retailer's store in Tenby, Wales, was visited by a Pembrokeshire environmental health officer in 2011.
Tenby, as well as a third store, in Southwold, Suffolk, had been using basement storage accessed by a trapdoor in the shop floor.
A Taunton Deane Borough Council spokesman said: "The company failed to respond appropriately to the events at Tenby, and to a lesser extent to the presence of a basement at Southwold.
"These ought to have put the company on notice of the potential existence of the risk associated with the use of basement storage, and the company ought to have done more, prior to the accident at Taunton, to enquire as to the presence of basements elsewhere in the WHSmith estate."
After the accident at Taunton, WHSmith moved the items that had been stored in the basement there to a store room and locked the basement out of use.
WHSmith (Retail Holdings) Limited, the company which leased the Taunton store premises and employed the staff members working there, pleaded guilty at Taunton Crown Court in May 2018 to breaching its general duties regarding health and safety under Section 3(1) (duty to non-employees, including customers) and Section 2(1) (duty to employee) of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
Sentencing, Judge Ticehurst said: "There was a lapse in focus of the corporate mind.
"Any other shoppers browsing around the card racks could have been exposed to the risk of falling through the trapdoor."
However, he said WHSmith has "a good safety record" and only one relevant conviction - in 2004 when it was fined £3,500.
WHSmith was fine £337,500 and ordered to pay £135,492.66 towards the council's costs of the investigation and subsequent prosecution.
