States to Residents: Forget Promises to Restore School Funding
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9694-states-to-residents-forget-promises-to-=
restore-school-funding
Mike Alberti, Remapping Debate: "When the recession hit, state revenues =E2=
=80=A6 declined dramatically, prompting deep cuts to state services. In at =
least 30 states, funding for K-12 education was lower in fiscal year 2012 t=
han in 2008, despite growing student populations. In state after state, pol=
iticians justified the large budget cuts on the grounds that the condition =
of the state budget made it temporarily necessary to reduce services."

Anemona Hartocollis, The New York Times News Service: "A federal health off=

dded to the list of sicknesses covered by a $4.3 billion fund set up =E2=80=
=A6 after the September 11 attack. It will allow not only rescue workers bu=
t also volunteers, residents, schoolchildren and passers-by to apply for mo=
ney to pay for compensation and treatment for cancers developed in the afte=
rmath of the attack."

http://truth-out.org/news/item/9687-the-kochs-double-whammy
Robert Greenwald, Brave New Foundation: "If any doubt was left about the po=

les and David Koch goosed Gov. Scott Walker's campaign with $10 million thr=
ough their front group Americans for Prosperity, $1 million through the Rep=
ublican Governors Association, and more from members of the 'million-dollar=

Suicides Outpacing War Deaths for Troops

Timothy Williams, The New York Times News Service: "The suicide rate among =
the nation's active-duty military personnel has spiked this year, eclipsing=
the number of troops dying in battle and on pace to set a record annual hi=
gh since the start of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan more than a decade a=

Beverly Bell, Other Worlds: "S. Ushakumari is a horticulturist who has been=
working with a public interest research organization, Thanal, for the past=
22 years. Part of her life's work is a movement which is sweeping the glob=
e: zero waste. Instead of seeking to 'manage' waste, this philosophy and ca=

Suevon Lee, ProPublica: "The Stand Your Ground law is most widely associate=
