CT Court Ruling - Where is the truth, equity, and justice?



Please join Internet radio host Dr. James Avington Miller Jr. for a special report on the CCJEF vs. Rell court ruling and how this ruling significantly affects children, parents, teachers, communities, and potentially the whole country. Dr. Miller's featured guests will be CT blogger Jonathan Pelto and CT attorney and educational columnist Wendy Lecker.



We will explore the origin of the case, the actual ruling, and the implications of Judge Thomas Moukawsher's outrageous court ruling.



This case, if not overturned, will turn CT into a state that will abolish aide and support to at-risk and special needs children.



This case, if not overturned, that will turn CT into another Detroit with poor districts abandoned and privileged districts enriched.



This case, if not overturned, will demand that teacher pay must be tied to teacher evaluations and student test scores.



And all this and more will be done from the bench not from the elected legislators. Democracy is NOT at work here in CT.



We must all wake up and fight the over-reach in our schools, our communities and our country. This one case will negatively impact students, teachers, families, public education, and our future. It is an important case we must all learn about.



Please read Wendy's column -

Here is the actual ruling - https://www.jud.ct.gov/CCJEFvRell.pdf



CT friends - please tune in and learn about the ruling. All our War Report friends, please take note that cases like this are happening all over our country and we the people must wake up and fight off the privatization of everyone and everything. Please listen in and call in on Sunday

The War Report on Public Education Guest, Dr Jesse P Turner May 10, 2015
Associate Professor CCSU Department of Reading and Language Arts, Public Education Activist

As a professional and scholar I conscientiously and actively pursue professional activities in order to keep myself current with issues and concerns surrounding reading and language arts, maintain and expand professional relationships with colleagues in my discipline and other related disciplines, continue to be a relevant and productive contributor to my discipline and other related disciplines, and to add visibility to my department, school, and university.

Among my professional affiliations include: National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE), National Reading Conference (NRC), International Reading Association (IRA), Connecticut Association for Reading Research (CARR), New England Reading Association (NERA), Phi Delta Kappa, CCSU Chapter (PDK), and the Center for Expansion of Language and Thinking (CELT). I am also active in the Connecticut Literacy Think Tank, a consortium of professional educators who are either directly or indirectly involved in reading and language arts from the State of Connecticut, i.e., Central Connecticut State University, Southern Connecticut State University, Western Connecticut State University, Eastern Connecticut State University, St. Joseph’s College, University of Hartford, University of Bridgeport, University of Connecticut, and the State Department of Education/Bureau of Curriculum and Instruction. The Think Tank committee serves as a consulting/advisory body to the Connecticut Association for Reading Research and the Connecticut Reading Association on issues that impact on curriculum and instruction, and assessments in reading and language arts in the state of Connecticut. I also served as Publication Chair and Editor for the Connecticut Association for Reading Research (CARR). CARR is a professional organization dedicated to the enhancement and improvement of professional development of reading and language arts educators in Connecticut. It advocates leadership in support of research, policy and practice that improves reading instruction and supports the best interests of all learners and reading professionals. It also encourages and supports research at all levels of reading and language arts education to promote informed decision making by reading professionals, policy makers, and the public. Through CARR, our graduate students in reading and language arts have received scholarships and research awards. Additionally, I am Treasurer and Chair of the Membership Committee of the Phi Delta Kappa, CCSU Chapter. PDK is an international professional association in education designed to stimulate the professional growth of members and to deal with current problems and issues related to public education. My appointment to the State of Connecticut Task Force for helping struggling readers in Connecticut grades four to nine is beneficial to our department particularly in informing our curriculum and instruction in the clinical sequence—diagnosis and remediation in reading and language arts.

I have always been passionate and committed to working with teachers in classroom practice as well as parents in supporting their children’s literacy learning through professional development programs. I facilitated a series of Annual Parent University Collaborative Professional Development Project in the New Britain Consolidated Schools (2007, 2008 & 2009).

Recently, I have been invited to serve on the Board of the New Britain Grade-Level Reading Campaign, a funded program in collaboration with the Annie E. Casey Grade Level Reading Campaign, the Connecticut Center for School Change, the William Caspar Graustein Memorial Fund, and the Connecticut Department of Education to ensure that all students in New Britain are reading at grade level by the end of grade 3, and the Welcome to My World Autism-a support group for parents with children with autism. Serving on executive boards allows me to influence policies or decisions that impact student learning.

As You Wish Talk Radio Guest, Alfred Labremont Webre May 09, 2015
Futurist, Author, Radio Show Host, Chairman of Mars Anomaly Research Society (MARS)

Alfred Lambremont Webre is a futurist whose book EXOPOLITICS founded the science of intelligent civilizations in the multi-verse and expresses a positive timeline for Earth. Alfred's 1974 book THE AGE OF CATACLYSM integrates Earth Sciences and the psychic remote viewing of Edgar Cayce of a global coastal event and expresses the catastrophic timeline for Earth. 

Alfred is chairman of the Mars Anomaly Research Society (MARS) educating about life on Mars. A graduate of Yale University, Yale Law School and a Fulbright Scholar, Alfred has taught economics at Yale University and constitutional law at the University of Texas. Alfred was general counsel to the New York City Environmental Protection Administration, a futurist at Stanford Research Institute (where he directed the proposed 1977 Carter White House extraterrestrial communication study).

Alfred's new book, THE OMNIVERSE, transcends the MultiVerse, integrating empirical data from intelligent extraterrestrial civilizations, from souls in the Interlife and the Spiritual Dimensions.  What is revealed is a functioning ecology of vast intelligence in the multiple dimensions in the Omniverse...Trans-dimensional Intelligence, Time Travel, the Afterlife, and the Secret Colony on Mars.  Validated and documented definitions of the major forms of extraterrestrial life are also covered.

Alfred is Director and a Faculty member of ExoUniversity, a non-profit educational entity for continuing online education in ExoSciences, PsiSciences, and Exopolitics.  He has many groups on Facebook, where you can also interact and discover the latest research!

A Fireside Chat Guest, Timothy J Glenn May 09, 2015
Author, Astrologer, Numerologist, Spiritual Reader

Timothy J Glenn is an astrologer, numerologist, spiritual reader and teacher, pianist, vocalist, sound healer, channel for the Proterreans, lecturer, and past life regression therapist.  Tim says, "I've thrown myself into the world of Metaphysics with a grand passion."  This is beautifully demonstrated through his personal Soul Purpose Readings.  

A Soul Purpose Reading has a primary focus:  why did you (as a Divine Soul) come into this particular life?  Sessions last about an hour and a half and can be done in person or over the phone.

We can add one more item to the list of professions...author!  Check out my new eBook: "The Zephyrus Archives - Volume One - Mission of Eternity".  A narrative biography of Pontious Pilate's right hand man.  The Zephyrus Archives paint an intimate portrait of the most misrepresented human in history:  the Spiritual Master called Jesus, who Zephyrus knew as Yeshua.

Temple of Health Radio Show Guest, Mada Eliza Dalian May 09, 2015

Mada Eliza Dalian is a world-renowned luminary, spiritual teacher, and master of healing and personal transformation. She is the founder of the revolutionary Dalian Method™ (DM) featured in Healing the Body and Awakening Consciousness with the Dalian Method: An Advanced Self-Healing System for a New Humanity book and 2 CD set, and the award-winning best-selling author of In Search of the Miraculous: Healing into Consciousness. Mada began her quest for truth at the age of five when she witnessed her grandfather’s death. Becoming aware of her own mortality at such a tender age, she began to contemplate life’s existential questions: Who am I? Where have I come from? and Where will I go when I die? At the age of twenty-four, she left behind her training in education and architecture and devoted herself to the search for truth and spiritual enlightenment. After years of meditation and introspection, she was blessed with several profound experiences that ultimately led to a powerful awakening experience at the age of thirty-three. In 1997, combining her experience of Truth and extraordinary ability to accurately read the unconscious belief patterns imprinted in the body’s cellular memory, Mada pioneered a new healing system, which helps to quickly identify the causes of pain, illness, emotional and psychological problems and permanently transform what is unconscious into self-empowered consciousness. Mada shares her wisdom through Dalian Method seminars, workshops, online courses, retreats, private sessions, and coach and facilitator trainings.

The People Speak Guest, Gilad Atzmon May 08, 2015
Jazz Musician and Writer/Author

Gilad Atzmon is a British Jazz artist and author. Gilad was born in Israel in 1963 and trained at the Rubin Academy of Music, Jerusalem (Composition and Jazz). A multi-instrumentalist he plays saxophones, clarinet and ethnic woodwind instruments . His album Exile was the BBC jazz album of the year in 2003. He was described by John Lewis at the Guardian as the “hardest-gigging man in British jazz.” Atzmon tours extensively around the world.   His albums, of which he has recorded fifteenth albums  to date, often explore political themes and the music of the Middle East.

As a member of the Blockheads, Gilad has also recorded and performed with Ian Dury, Robbie Williams, Sinead O'Connor and Paul McCartney. Gilad has also recorded with Robert Wyatt, the Water Boys. In 2014 he recorded with Pink Floyd and is featured on their last album The Endless River (Anisina).

In 2000 Gilad  founded the Orient House Ensemble in London and started re-defining his own roots in the light of his emerging ethical awareness.  The  Ensemble includes Chris Higginbottom  on Drums, Yaron Stavi on Bass and Frank Harrison on piano & electronics.

Gilad writes  on political matters, social issues,  Jewish identity and culture. His  papers are published on very many press outlets around the world.  Here is just a short list of his recent publications: World News, Press Tv, Rebelion, The Daily Telegraph, Uprooted Palestinians, Veterans Today, Palestine Telegraph, Counterpunch, Dissident Voice, Aljazeera Magazine,   Information Clearing House,   Middle-East-Online,   Palestine Chronicle, The People Voice, Redress, Shoa (The Palestinian Holocaust) , The Guardian, transcend and many more.

Gilad is a popular political analyst and is often guesting on Television and Radio stations around the world such as RT, Press TV, BBC and many more.

Atzmon's  novels 'Guide to the perplexed' and 'My One And Only Love' have been translated into 24 languages. Gilad's latest book, The Wandering Who?, is a study of Jewish Identity politics.  It was published in English in October 2011 and has since been translated into ten languages and been a best seller since then.

Over the years Gilad Atzmon's music has moved increasingly toward a cultural hybrid. As a bandleader and reed player he has been amazing his listeners with his powerful personal style that combines great bebop artistry and Middle-Eastern roots in a sophisticated, sometimes ironical manner. Influenced by Coltrane’s powerful approach on the sax, Gilad's live performances are simply breathtaking and overwhelming.

Gilad's work is highly  praised by the musical press. Here are just a few quotes:

"Atzmon's fluid lyricism is in full flow on songbook classics and worldly originals. But as sweet romance morphs to modernist uncertainty, the bittersweet balance and rich emotional palette equally impress." Financial Times ***** March 2009

“A formidable improvisational array...a jazz giant steadily drawing himself up to his full height...” The Guardian.

“The best musician living in the world today” Robert Wyatt

"Gilad Atzmon, the expat Israeli saxophonist/clarinetist, combines thrilling jazz musicianship with a maverick political intelligence"  The Guardian ****

"Like the best of albums" Jazzwise **** March 2009

"Atzmon always manages to tell a story" Uncut **** March 2009

"One of the finest alto players around, Gilad pays his respects to Bird ...It's striking how similar Gilad's sweet, open-throated sound is to Parker's, but as you'd expect from the fiery philosopher-turned-Blockhead, this is no tribute album." BBC Music Magazine March 2009

In 2007 Gilad extended his role as a Producer,  working with outstanding singer-songwriter Sarah Gillespie to produce her debut album released in September 2009.

In 2008-9, Gilad also produced the Brazilian percussion star Adriano Adewale, the multi ethnic Irish band Yurodny and is currently producing the UK legendary bass player Norman Watt-Roy’s debut album. In 2010 Gilad produced The Ghosts Within with Robert Wyatt and Ros Stephen. He also produced Sarah Gillespie's In The Current Climate.
