variability and change especially to the most vulnerable sectors of the economy and communities to climate related hazards. 1.0 INTRODUCTION The climate of Nigeria has shown considerable temporal and spatial shifts in its variability and change. Extreme climate and weather events (drought, flood, heatwaves, ocean surges, etc) have become more regular. The impacts of extreme weather and climate may be gradual but they are destructive to lives and property, negatively impact on the economy. Floods have become a perennial challenge with increasing intensity each year, leaving colossal losses and trauma. The low-lying coast of the country experiences perennial inundation due to ocean surges and strong tidal waves. The 2012 Nigerian Climate Review bulletin has added new climate indicators such as ‘rainfall months’ anomaly, extreme meteorological parameters, etc., in addition to standard statistically examined climatic elements (maximum and minimum temperatures, rainfall amounts and patterns of onset and cessation of rainfall). This innovation is to provide scientists and experts in the socio-economic sectors more useful information on variability and trends with a view to addressing the many multi-hazard challenges facing the country. The synoptic features indicated dominance of the subtropical high pressure systems at the beginning of the year, leading to the raising of dust particles at the surface in the Sahara Desert and subsequent transportation and reduction of horizontal visibility across the country. The southwesterly winds gained momentum at the coast and progressively moved inland at the end of first quarter of the year. The monsoon trough remained very active across the country till the end of the third quarter, and this brought about enhanced rainfall and thunderstorms, flash flooding and the associated impacts. The seasonal and meridional oscillations of the Inter-Tropical Discontinuity (ITD) attained a peak position of about latitude 18.8oN in August. In addition, the dynamics of the atmosphere showed unusual surging and pulsation of the ITD, such that severe storms were experienced over the coast as early as February in 2012, particularly over Lagos. Further scientific studies are presently being undertaken to understand the causative factors.
Date Number of spells Effects January 1st – 21st 1 Visibility reduced to 200 – 800m in the north and 600 – 1000m in the south. Deterioration in visibility due to dust haze was wide spread. February 2nd – 7th February 11th – 18th February 25th – 29th 3 Visibility reduced to 600 – over the northern fringes of the country with pronounced reduction in Maiduguri and environs. March 3rd – 8th 16th – 21st 2 Visibility reduced to 200 – 800m over Yola, Maiduguri and Gombe. November 23rd – 25th 1 Visibility reduced to 800m over Kano. December 14th – 19th 1 Visibility reduced to 800 – 1500m over Kano and Yola. Table 2: Summary of Dust Haze Spells and Effects

Oklahoma The State of Oklahoma has the following limits on the P-card: $5,000 single transaction except when items are: On Statewide Contract as bid by Department of Central Services Central Purchasing Division or Regulated Utilities. In two cases, the dollar amount is unlimited. We have legislation to add Interagency Purchases and Professional Services to the unlimited dollar threshold. We have a new Governor this year. In her State of the State speech in January, she pushed the use of technology including P-card. She urged agencies and higher education to use the state’s program especially on small dollar purchases. We also have drafted a letter to go out to the agencies, signed by the Director of Central Services, the Director of the Office of State Finance, and the State Treasurer, urging agencies to use their P-cards for small dollar transactions when possible. This letter hasn’t gone out yet, but we’re hoping. We just recently changed from JPMorgan Chase to Bank of America with better rebate terms and all. We have had a good response to the Governor’s address and see the P-card usage really increasing. Virginia In Virginia we are about to go live with a ePayables tool which takes your typical A/P spend for check or ACH and if we can put it on a card are doing so - this is after the voucher is processed through the A/P system. We are aiming at doubling our rebate in about 2 years doing this. Our transaction limit typically is up to $5,000 but we do have a Gold card program with limits typically to $50,000 a transaction and $250,000 a month. We do have higher ones especially for year-end purchases, but this works well for only those who truly can support the higher limit need. Utah In Utah, our standard thresholds are much lower than yours are. Ours are $5,000 monthly and $1,000 per transaction. Our agencies may request higher limits, which we evaluate on a case by case basis.

Children Will Shine. I can’t believe that we have passed Easter and are now into the summer term this is going to be busy time for the B.D.A. and the Children Will Shine projects. The projects that we are running in London and Manchester are going well. We have to thank supporters of Dyslexia Action in providing some resources to continue supporting dyslexic children we have in the project. We are units of sound and the active literacy kit and this will help us to continue the mission of improving the lives of the children. Over the next term will be launching two new workshops within Salford will be working with the Salford Dyslexia Association and in Peterborough. This is to support the revitalisation of this local association over the next two terms. The B.D.A. and I will be looking at ways of how other Local Dyslexia Associations can use this model to support their own groups by the end of 2012. To find more information on the project please e-mail
The Education Show. The B.D.A. attended the Education Show at the N.E.C. Birmingham, and again this is a useful opportunity for the B.D.A. to give out information on such things like the initial teacher training campaign and the ICT resource disc. This exhibition was well attended and useful questions were related to people’s personal situations. We have to thank Jean Hutchins and Chris Hossack once again for their support throughout the show and to all the Local Dyslexia Association members who volunteered on the stand. Joanne Gregory, Quality Mark Development Manager at the B.D.A., delivered a seminar on dyslexia friendly schooling including how schools, colleges and organisations can join the B.D.A.’s Quality Mark. This seminar was very well attended and had very good feedback on the stand. Judith Stansfield, member of the New Technology Committee, gave an excellent talk on early identification of dyslexia, with the catchy ‘Catch ‘em young’. She went on to talk about various means of assisting young dyslexics including assistive technology and multisensory tools.

adhere to, such as taking pictures of each transaction, taking identification for each transaction, and when taking the money from their ATM machine, it takes a picture of the person. Mr. Allen said he helped create a metal theft alert system, which is managed by the West Jordan Police Department on a statewide level. They receive emails on a daily basis of metal thefts that have occurred. This helps recyclers keep an eye on things. He gave an example of a theft that occurred of bronze statues in Murray. The suspects were arrested. Mrs. Black moved to approve a fence modification for property located generally at 840 North Industrial Park Road with the addition that they will plant a $200 pine tree every thirty feet along the fence line. Mr. Seastrand seconded the motion. Those voting aye: Mr. Andersen, Mrs. Black, Mr. Evans, Mr. Seastrand, and Mr. Sumner. The motion passed unanimously. **Mrs. Street returned to the meeting at 7:33 p.m. RESOLUTION—Approving an Interlocal Agreement between the Utah Transit Authority (UTA), the City of Orem and Eleven Other Cities for the Creation of a Railroad Corridor “Quiet Zone” Earl, Deputy City Attorney, presented a staff request that the City Council, by resolution, approve the execution of an Interlocal Agreement between the Utah Transit Authority (UTA) and the cities of Provo, Orem, Vineyard, American Fork, Lehi, Bluffdale, Draper, South Jordan, Sandy, Murray, South Salt Lake, and Salt Lake (the “Cities”), for the creation of a railroad corridor “Quiet Zone.” With the near completion of the commuter rail line running between Provo and Salt Lake City, which passes through the twelve cities named above, the Utah Transit Authority (UTA) has suggested that the Cities establish a “Quiet Zone” pursuant to federal regulations. In a Quiet Zone, trains are not required to sound their horns at intersections as they approach grade crossings as they would otherwise be required to do. In order to qualify for a Quiet Zone, certain grade crossing protection improvements must be installed where roadways cross the railroad corridor at grade. These crossing protection improvements typically include gates, flashing lights and audible warning bells for pedestrians. Orem currently has three locations where public streets cross the railroad corridor at grade. These crossings are located at 2000 South, 800 South, and 400 South. The necessary protection improvements will be installed and maintained at these locations by UTA.

746.501 DFPS received one comment related to this rule. One commenter indicated that the additional training hours will be a financial burden on the commenter’s small business. The commenter stated that she pays for the employee’s annual training hours. The commenter stated that she did not raise the tuition rates for the current year but may have to increase the rates next year. The commenter expressed concern with parents seeking unregulated in-home care for their children due to the increased cost in child care. The department recommends adoption of this rule with no changes. The only requirement in this rule related to training requires an operation to have policies requiring annual training for employees related to preventing and responding to abuse and neglect of children. This new requirement was mandated in the last legislative session by SB 471, became effective in statute in January 2012, and effective in administrative rule in March 2012. Child Care Licensing did not propose and is not changing any language related to training requirements or hours at this time. 746.801 DFPS received one comment related to this rule. One commenter stated that the Consumer Product Safety Commission is going to accept the tracking label and registration card in addition to the certificate of compliance to verify that a crib meets compliance with the new federal regulations. The department recommends adoption of this section with one change. After this rule was proposed, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) broadened the types of documentation that are accepted to verify a crib’s compliance with the new regulations, by accepting the tracking label, registration card, or certificate of compliance as verification. In order to allow providers additional ways to comply with the new regulations, Licensing recommends revising the language of the rule from “certificate of compliance for cribs” to “documentation for cribs”, as specified in §746.2409 of this title (relating to What specific requirements must my cribs meet?).
Typical School Personnel Developing and Implementing Behavior Support Plans Problem behaviors such as aggression, non-compliance, property destruction and social withdrawal continue to be among the largest challenges faced by educators in schools today. Without effective intervention, recurrent behavior problems often result in removal from general education settings (e.g., office referrals, detentions, suspensions), and can ultimately lead to unnecessary referrals for special education services and diagnoses of emotional and behavioral disorders (January, Casey, & Paulson, 2011). With the 1997 and 2004 reauthorizations of IDEA mandating the use of functional behavioral assessment (FBA) to guide the development of behavior support for students with disabilities exhibiting problem behavior that impedes their educational success, a great deal of attention shifted to the efficacy and feasibility of providing function-based support for individual students in school settings. Since that time a significant body of research indicates that individualized function-based supports based on FBA information are highly effective in decreasing persistent patterns of challenging behavior (Cook et al., 2012; Didden, Duker, & Korzilius ,1997; Filter & Horner, 2009; Iwata et al, 1982/1994; Marquis et al., 2000; Newcomer & Lewis; 2004; Pelios, Morren, Tesch & Axelrod, 1999), and the use of FBA is now advocated as best practice for addressing challenging behavior of students with and without disabilities (Cooper, Heron, & Heward, 2007; Scott, Anderson & Alter, 2012; Renshaw, Christensen, Marchant, & Anderson, 2008). Traditionally, FBA has been most commonly applied with students exhibiting serious and/or pervasive challenging behaviors that have been resistant to previous intervention efforts. However, FBA and the implementation of function-based interventions can be most effective
