This installment (in my mind) had nothing to do with the issue Jail Bush raised. Nevertheless, the points made are interesting and are worth examining. In my view, this was more about examining the policies of the new administrator in charge. Is his tough love approach correct or is he taking it a bit too far? There are other issues as well in this narrative.. However, I like to keep my audience guessing...<br /><br />Obviously, there are various elements of spoof including Admiral Ackbar, Darth Sidious, Darth Vader, and the language used in the intro Star Wars crawl. As always, thanks for sharing.Jacob Gutnickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05677371920286939228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318734518772387227.post-31174082447423441512010-08-15T23:11:05.235-04:002010-08-15T23:11:05.235-04:00Okay, not what I expected with this 'second in...Okay, not what I expected with this 'second installment'.<br /><br />How on Earth am I supposed to go back to my faculty and attempt to promote ed-tech blogs as valuable resources? Someone on my staff will surely read "sperm burns".<br /><br />Ken, you can keep your blogs! That's what they'll say.<br /><br />On another note, I'd like to believe that in the early portion of this post, you include a wondrous tribute to Admiral Ackbar.<br /><br />"It's a trap!"kenhttp://kenrodoff.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318734518772387227.post-19918634401144887152010-08-15T18:12:52.933-04:002010-08-15T18:12:52.933-04:00The side effects of cellphone technology is defini...The side effects of cellphone technology is definitely an issue that needs to be explored more closely. Thank you for sharing. Having said that, at the end of your commentary you made reference to "safer cell phone use". I am wondering, what does that entail in your mind.Jacob Gutnickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05677371920286939228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318734518772387227.post-11551041255162210962010-08-15T14:51:23.659-04:002010-08-15T14:51:23.659-04:00get rid of wireless-- good for you !!
More inform...get rid of wireless-- good for you !!<br />More information about the biological effects of non-ionizing radiation from wireless technology is coming out every day. Enough is not being done by cities, counties, states and the Federal Government to protect us from the potentially devastating health and environmental effects. Through the 1996 telecommunications act the telecoms are shielded from liability and oversight. Initially cell phones were released with no pre-market safety testing despite the fact the Government and the Military have known for over 50 years that radio frequency is harmful to all biological systems (inthesenewtimes dot com/2009/05/02/6458/.). Health studies were suppressed and the 4 trillion dollar a year industry was given what amounts to a license to kill.<br />On it's face, the 1996 telecommunications act is unconstitutional and a cover-up. Within the fine print city governments are not allowed to consider "environmental" effects from cell towers. They should anyway! It is the moral and legal obligation of our government to protect our health and welfare? Or is it? When did this become an obsolete concept? A cell tower is a microwave weapon capable of causing cancer, genetic damage & other biological problems. Bees, bats, humans, plants and trees are all affected by RF & EMF. Communities fight to keep cell towers away from schools yet they allow the school boards to install wi fi in all of our schools thereby irradiating our kids for 6-7 hours each day. Kids go home and the genetic assault continues with DECT portable phones, cell phones, wi fi and Wii's. A tsunami of cancers and early alzheimer's await our kids. Young people under the age of 20 are 420% more at risk of forming brain tumors (Swedish study, Dr. Lennart Hardell) because of their soft skulls, brain size and cell turn over time. Instead of teaching "safer" cell phone use and the dangers of wireless technology our schools mindlessly rush to wireless bending to industry pressure rather than informed decision making. We teach about alcohol, tobacco, drugs and safe sex but not about "safer" cell phone use. We are in a wireless trance, scientists are panicking while young brains, ovaries and sperm burns.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
