Michael Skakel, right, talks with Jessica Santos, one of his defense attorneys, during Skakel's appeal trial at Rockville Superior Court in Vernon, Conn., on Thursday, April 25, 2013. Skakel launched a barrage of criticism Thursday against the attorney who represented him at his murder trial, saying he failed to track down key witnesses while having fun and basking in the limelight. Skakel is serving 20 years to life in prison for the 1975 golf club bludgeoning of Martha Moxley in Greenwich when they were both 15 years old. Skakel argues trial attorney Michael Sherman got caught up in the limelight of the high-profile case and failed to prepare. (AP Photo/The Stamford Advocate, Jason Rearick, Pool)

Anxiety is high among students and teachers with state standardized tests set to begin Tuesday. A lot of focus and criticism has been aimed at the tests, known as CRCT in Georgia, since one of the nation's largest cheating scandals erupted within the Atlanta Public Schools system a few years back that included allegations that teachers and principals changed scores to inflate performance. While criminal charges are pending against 35 former Atlanta educators, the district has been working on a system-wide remediation program aimed at helping those directly affected by the cheating scandal and others who have simply fallen behind.

Reebok has ended its relationship with Rick Ross following the heavy criticism surrounding the rapper's lyrics some have called pro-rape. The sneaker brand said in a statement Thursday, April 11, 2013, that “Reebok holds our partners to a high standard and we expect them to live up to the values of our brand. Unfortunately, Rick Ross has failed to do so.” Rick Ross formally apologized for his lyrics on Rocko's song "U.O.E.N.O.” in a tweet last week. It came the same day a women's group, UltraViolet, protested outside of one Reebok's stores in Manhattan. In Rocko's song, Ross raps about giving a woman the drug MDMA, known as Molly, and having his way with her. (Photo by John Amis/Invision/AP, file)
