The violence in northern Nigeria is mistakenly viewed as a religious
conflict rather than simply a tribal dispute over land, according to the
Obama administration.Despite the ongoing Muslim destruction of churches and the slaughter
of Christians – including many murdered during worship services – the
U.S. Agency for International Development claims that the
misunderstandings make it difficult to administer aid programs.
USAID, therefore, has launched a program titled Project PEACE – an
acronym for Programming Effectively Against Conflict and Extremism.
PEACE says it will hire contractors to help the agency analyze the
“true” causes of conflict and consequently provide more effective
humanitarian and conflict-resolution assistance,
according to planning documents that WND located via database research.
The cost of Obama’s new “knowledge generation, dissemination and management” initiative is $600 million. The Statement of Work governing the PEACE procurement does not say that
USAID specifically plans to intervene in Nigeria. However, an
accompanying guidance document explicitly cites Nigeria’s
Christian-Muslim conflict as a “case study” for Obama’s global endeavor.
Contractors selected under Project PEACE would, among other tasks,
analyze the historical and cultural contexts of ongoing or developing
conflicts.

An upper Manhattan public elementary school will be the first in the
city to require that students study Arabic, officials said yesterday.
Beginning
next semester, all 200 second- through fifth-graders at PS 368 in
Hamilton Heights will be taught the language twice a week for 45 minutes
— putting it on equal footing with science and music courses.
One
reason Principal Nicky Kram Rosen selected Arabic — as opposed to more
common offerings, such as Spanish or French — is because it will help
the school obtain a prestigious International Baccalaureate standing.

A
Florida teenager had his diploma withheld and was ordered to clean the
school gym as punishment for Tebowing on stage during his graduation
ceremony -- and later discovered the punishment was his mother's idea.

The Michigan high school principal who faced blistering criticism after she
suspended scores of graduating students because they staged a bicycle-riding parade to school as a senior surprise has issued an apology for her actions.
Katharine Pennington, the principal at
Kenowa Hills High School
in Walker, Mich., was dismayed at not having been informed in advance
about the students’ planned bike ride. When the estimated 60 students
arrived at school on Tuesday morning – the final day of their senior
year – Pennington suspended them for the day, forbade them from
participating the day’s annual senior walk, and even suggested they
would possibly not be able to walk at their graduation ceremony next
week.
[Now just a minute! Isn't it Michelle M'Belle Obama who pushes us to exercise? And now these seniors have had their special last days at school totally trashed by a principal. Apology extended too late to give them back theyr day, Katharine.....And it sure beats vandalism for a celebration, doesn't it?] http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/headlines/2012/05/principal-apologizes-to-students-for-punishing-them-for-celebratory-bike-ride/

The
Justice Department
promised Thursday to be “flexible” in enforcing new rules ordering
public pools to pay for lifts or ramps for the disabled — backing away
from what some pool operators had said was an invitation to a flood of
lawsuits against small businesses.
It marked the latest retreat for the
department,
which earlier this year ruled the Americans With Disabilities Act
applied to pools open to the public, such as community recreation
centers and hotels, which would have to invest in elevators, lifts or
ramps in order to accommodate the disabled.
But with the March compliance deadline looming and members of
Congress threatening action, the
Justice Department issued an initial delay, and earlier this month extended the stay into next year. On Thursday, the
department
went further, saying the rules apply chiefly to new pools, while
existing pools will only need to comply if it’s easy and cheap to do so.
[Ah, the Law of Unintended Consequences again. Does anyone have a brain?] http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2012/may/24/feds-promise-swimming-pool-rules-are-flexible/
