She was seeking that most American of dreams: a new life, and opportunities she couldn't approach back home.

The criticism of Obama's selection to oversee safety programs for public schools in the United States came today from the American Principles Project, a group dedicated to preserving and propagating the fundamental principles on which the United States was founded. It has set up a website program through which concerned parents and others can send a message with their concern to members of Congress.

During the Bush-Cheney regime, power became an instrument of retribution and punishment was connected to and fueled by a repressive state. A bullying rhetoric of war, a ruthless consolidation of economic forces, and an all-embracing free-market apparatus and media driven pedagogy of fear supported and sustained a distinct culture of cruelty and inequality in the United States. In pointing to a culture of cruelty, I am not employing a form of left moralism that collapses matters of power and politics into the discourse of character. On the contrary, I think the notion of a culture of cruelty is useful in thinking through the convergence of everyday life and politics, of considering material relations of power - the disciplining of the body as an object of control - on the one hand, and the production of cultural meaning, especially the co-optation of popular culture to sanction official violence, on the other. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.com INDOCTRINATION ALERT!

And because a so-called “progressive” President is leading the charge, many education activists have been lulled to sleep while on lookout duty. Obama recently announced his “race to the top” program to “reform” education. Much like Bush’s No Child Left Behind, Obama’s plan represents progress for education in name only. In reality, Obama’s plan is to lure cash-starved schools into a “competition” to accept federal funds, with dangerous strings attached. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.com Obama's View of Education Is Stuck in Reverse http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/education/public/news.php?q=1248569988 Friday 24 July 2009   Barack Obama views education as a high priority in his administration. Unlike in the Bush administration, he appears far more aware that public and higher education are important sites of struggle with enormous implications for young people, the existing social order, and the future. While President Obama and his secretary of education, Arne Duncan, have focused on public education, they have done so by largely embracing the Bush administration's view of educational reform, which includes more testing, more empirically based accountability measures, more charter schools, more military academies, defining the purpose of education in largely economic terms, and punishing public schools that don't measure up to high-stakes testing measures. For instance, his recent reforms aimed at higher education consists of providing 12 billion dollars to improve community colleges by developing new assessment tools and developing a standardized national curriculum. What comes to mind from this piece of reform is an attempt to upgrade bad secondary schools by adding computers and turning them into trade schools while producing an army of students prepared to take their place in low-skill, low pay service sector jobs. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.com The Globalization of Poverty and the New World Order http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/education/public/news.php?q=1248372582 July 23, 2009   In this new and expanded edition of Chossudovsky’s international best-seller, the author outlines the contours of a New World Order which feeds on human poverty and the destruction of the environment, generates social apartheid, encourages racism and ethnic strife and undermines the rights of women. The result as his detailed examples from all parts of the world show so convincingly, is a globalization of poverty. This book is a skilful combination of lucid explanation and cogently argued critique of the fundamental directions in which our world is moving financially and economically. In this new enlarged edition –which includes ten new chapters and a new introduction-- the author reviews the causes and consequences of famine in Sub-Saharan Africa, the dramatic meltdown of financial markets, the demise of State social programs and the devastation resulting from corporate downsizing and trade liberalisation. Michel Chossudovsky is Professor of Economics at the University of Ottawa and Director of the Centre for Research on Globalization (CRG), which hosts the critically acclaimed website www. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.com Detroit Public School System Ponders Bankruptcy http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/education/public/news.php?q=1247516350 July 11, 2009 Freep is reporting the Detroit Public School System May Wind Up In Bankruptcy. The Detroit Public Schools may have no choice but to file for Chapter 9 bankruptcy, which would make it the first big-city school district to use bankruptcy court to avoid paying millions to vendors, employees and bondholders, experts said Thursday.

They included some pupils being marked down for correctly spelling "distinctive". The teacher had written in the margin it should have been "destinctive". In addition, some marks had been totted up wrongly.

Currently, Chicago's Senn High School houses Rickover Naval Academy (RNA). I use the term "occupation" because part of our building was taken away despite student, parent, teacher and community opposition to RNA's opening. Senn students are made to feel like second-class citizens inside their own school, due to inequalities. The facilities and resources are better on the RNA side. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.com Health Book Summaries - What Will Happen in 2012... http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/education/public/news.php?q=1246483023 ----- Original Message ----- From: HealthBookSummaries To: bellringer@fourwinds10.com Sent: Wednesday, July 01, 2009 2:08 AM Subject: Health Book Summaries - What Will Happen in 2012...   Dear Reader - Powerful films have helped transform many lives.
