3. Here is the Austin paper's take on that

Thursday votes a prelude to today’s SBOE meeting on science
By Laura Heinauer | Friday, March 27, 2009, 07:31 AM

Heading into today’s vote on Texas science curriculum standards, seven of the 15 State Board of Education members are strongly in favor of requiring that the weaknesses of scientific theories — specifically theories concerning the origin of species and the universe — be discussed in class.

Eight members are opposed to teaching the “weaknesses” of scientific theories. Several members of this voting block, however, have voted in favor of other amendments that some say could undermine the teaching of evolution.
