http://truth-out.org/news/item/9235-nato-protesters-held-without-charge-aft=
er-raid-as-chicago-steps-up-police-activities
Yana Kunichoff, Truthout: "A pre-emptive raid by the Chicago Police Departm=
ent (CPD) on the home of two Occupy Chicago activists may have happened wit=
hout a search warrant, said the National Lawyers Guild (NLG), and led to th=
e disappearance of nine activists into police custody without charge for al=
most 24 hours. According to witnesses, the raid was conducted by the Organi=
zed Crime Division of the CPD and a warrant produced at the site didn't hav=
e the signature of a judge. The use of pre-emptive arrests is troublesome, =
said lawyers following the proceedings."

Ignoring the Crisis: Philadelphia Schools Are Crumbling
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9216-the-revolution-will-not-be-televised-qu=
iet-drama-in-philadelphia
Ellen Brown, Truthout: "Last week, the city of Philadelphia's school system=
 announced that it expects to close 40 public schools next year and 64 scho=
ols by 2017. But corporate media in other cities made no mention of these m=
assive school closings - nor of those in Chicago, Atlanta or New York City.=
 Even in the Philadelphia media, the voices of the parents, students and te=
achers who will suffer were omitted from most accounts. Why does there alwa=

Fracking Fluids Could Contaminate Freshwater Aquifers, Says Study

Christine Shearer, Truthout: "A recent study has found that, under certain =
conditions, the chemical-laced water used in hydraulic fracturing can migra=
te through fractures and faults up to overlying aquifers in as little as te=
ns of years. The study, done by hydrogeologist Dr. Tom Myers and published =
in the peer-reviewed Ground Water, raises renewed questions about the poten=

Robert Naiman, Truthout: "One thing the Afghan war policy hasn't lost: the =

Jim McGovern (D-Massachusetts) and Walter Jones (R-North Carolina) that wou=

Lee Fang, Republic Report: "Joe Ricketts, the billionaire founder of TD Ame=
ritrade, is planning to unleash a race-baiting advertising assault against =
President Obama late in the campaign. It's a stark reminder that the Suprem=
e Court's Citizens United decision may unleash a new level of ugliness in A=
merican campaigns. Technically, the decision only allows corporations and u=
nions to spend unlimited amounts in elections. But in practice, Citizens Un=

Kevin G. Hall, McClatchy Newspapers: "The Senate Banking Committee summoned=
 JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon to testify under oath about the huge losses=

Robert Pollin and Heidi Garrett-Peltier, The Nation: "If we are going to ad=

we need to break the grip of the military-industrial complex on the $700 bi=

Paul Krugman, Krugman & Co.: "So a former partner of Mitt Romney's at Bain =
Capital says, in a new book, what Mr. Romney probably believes: we should b=

 see, they don't spend all their wealth building homes as big as the Taj Ma=
