By to Oer trim to of Wajna or it a vow of in a duct or car View and Samaad no common sense whatever happened to common sense in America every time i pick up the stars and stripes it s evident Many have lost this necessity in life. There was a Short article describing he dispute Over the logo at the univer sity of Massachusetts. According to complaints the logo a minuteman promotes racism because he s White sex ism because he s male and violence be cause he carries a article reported women at a Campus had compiled a list of every Man on Campus claiming All were potential rapists. Does this not promote sexism because there was not one woman s name on the list yes women can be thar cd with and convicted of rape ? does it not promote Vio Lence because they used the word rape it probably even promoted racism because every minority was t represented on theist. I people can twist anything around to suit whatever purposes or personal inter ests they do not promote racism sexism or Vio Lence but enough is enough. We re carry ing too Many important issues to a child ish extreme. Let s grow up develop som common sense and put our Energy and a Little intelligence into a problems that Are truly worthwhile. There Are too Many troubled children looking for adults not other children pre tending to be adults to raise m. Wade Ansbach Germany unjust statement 1 have worked As a military policeman for Many years and have put my personal feelings aside when while on the Job have been subjected to insults insolence assaults ridicule disdain degradation and just Plain disrespect. But nothing comes close to the insult in Craig mar tin s on the tube article oct. 17in which he states that the military police men and women of Frankfurt Community flagrantly disregard the civil and individual rights of women taken into custody by this have worked As a desk sergeant at the Frankfurt military police station for oneyear and have never allowed the transportation of naked females by military police patrol. Further i am willing to stake my hard earned rank and professional reputation that it has never occurred in the Community in which i pains me to work so hard to meet the Law enforcement needs of this Community Only to be slandered by a paper whose goal is to serve the set. Ronald w. Enzenbach Frankfurt Germany -. Wrong Aims on Agenda t disagree with the department of do sense dependents schools and is. Saun dvrs the educational equity program manager on Aims for the educational it May be True that some Chil Dren Are performing on a lower skill level than others i do not believe the sole basis is due to race discrimination or therace of the teacher. There can be Many factors causing lower skill Levels in Stu dents such As a physical disability lower maturity level family problems Lack of parental involvement substandard teach ing and overcrowded it or not parents Are the role models for their children. They should provide guidance teach responsibility and ensure discipline and moral conducting their children. Parents should Monitor the child s educational Progress in school and on a continual basis Monitor school operations curriculum and the teacher performance. I be always believed that the school sys tem s primary function is to teach the Core curriculum Reading writing Arith Metic and history ensure the Quality of academic courses and hire the Best Quali fied teachers based on character teach ing ability not race and to provide Safe Ana disciplined environment that promotes and teaches respect for teach ers elders and Peers. I disagree that the skill based curriculum is not serving the student learning process. Skill based level teaching i done properly will Challenge the student to learn regardless of the student s exist ing level of performance and will ensure each and every student understands the subject material before they Progress to the next level of instruction. This notion of teaching students with different skill Levels the Core subject material on a Gen eral scale will inhibit the educational growth and Progress of the could expand the Advance Merit via determination avid pro Gram to help students who Are Low achievers expand the Talent and gifted program for higher level achievers and begin afterschool Tutor program co Al students regardless of skill level who either have trouble with Core subject mate rial and need remedial help or want to Advance to higher Levels of learning through tutored instruction. Gordon Halloc Croughton England somalis not to blame in noblesse oblige oct.17why is it that when an american is killed and a body desecrated it is cause for crying anger and grief should t that be our response when any nationality of human life is lost human life is precious no matter if it is a somali or an we Are truly honest with ourselves we know the situation in Somalia was not Cre ated by the people of Somalia not the guns they possess or the famine they endure but they must now Deal with the actions of their of so Many people wanting to help the poor somalis we now hear " we should have let them starve and As for Mohamed Farrah aided he s the Only bad Guy in this whole affair wanted dead or alive As if this is the old West but Only his people can collect the Ransom. If we All had the same thoughts As let Ter writer lord help us. Our world would be in a sadder state than it is Hardman Kaiserslautern i Germany out of proportion after Reading oodles of Odd sizes thought this misanthropic epistle must be a put on. But then i thought hey the Guy just might mean it. This letter did not sit too Well. If you have a clue to the retail ing business you realize that the Basic purpose of sales especially clothing sales is to get rid of the hard to sell Over stocked merchandise. Hence it is a fallacy to go to a clothing Sale if you Are nor Mal properly proportioned individual. Cafes takes another hit because someone does t know he should hit the regular rack try the local Economy or Lethis fingers do the walking through one of those ubiquitous mail order Cata logs. Asa matter of fact i be gnashed my Teeth when i could find nothing on Trie men Srack but size 32 and 34. I do not Wear a size Lovi shoe and have a size 15 i neck and 34 Waist. Yet i resent the implication than i am Abnor Mal or incorrectly proportioned. I la bet Hulk Hogan has More than a 34-Inchwaist. Douglas often Forth Germany Ltd can be absorbed a recent article stated there is no danger of Ltd Lyser Gic acid Dieth olamide being absorbed through the skin. 1 sincerely doubt the veracity of that. I was a police officer in Texas for five years and a narcotics agent Forone of those years. Whenever Ltd was Dis cussed in the drug enforcement administration schools i attended and in other Agency sponsored schools extreme caution was urged As direct Contact with skin that is slightly moist will result in the absorption of the drug immediately although the narcotic effects of the drug will be somewhat less severe than if the drug were ingested normally. If parents Lead their children to believe they cannot be harmed by handling Ltd perhaps they will be encouraged to a hit of Ltd being offend for Sale or brought to school by an acquaintance. Asdis manufactured with the purpose of being absorbed through the skin namely the Tongue. Kids should avoid All Contact with an drugs. Telling people fire does not bum does not Stop fire from burning Kaiserslautern Germany .�.�. Smokers Are Litterer Why do smokers think they have a right to litter i am so tired of seeing smokers throw their cigarette Butts on the ground when they Are finished smoking. No matter where i have travelled in the states or in Europe i see smashed Butts on the ground. It s bad enough that their smoke bothers a lot of people let alone those unsightly cigarette Butts cluttering the Earth.
