What are the Standards in Other States?

As I lay here, contemplating the work that I have to do tomorrow and Wednesday on the ELA Standards and Benchmarks, it occurred to me that I have never read the standards from other states. If you are in the same boat as me, here are the links to a few of the commonly talked about states.

Texas

Alaska
http://www.eed.state.ak.us/contentstandards/English.html
Florida
http://etc.usf.edu/flstandards/la/index.html
New Jersey

If you have a chance, take a look at them. I found the differences compelling, not to mention the amount of time it took me just to find them!
