  1. Drunk Man Hits Officer Helping Him

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">This is even worse than biting the hand that feeds you. A man was arrested for attacking the police officer who helped him up after a drunken fall! Officer A.J. Powell spotted Patrick Francis Bonner, 32, staggering around a mall in Charleston, South Carolina last week. He approached Bonner, who was obviously wasted, and tried to get him to sit down while a cab was called. But when Bonner attempted to get up, he fell over into a nearby flowerpot (just in case you needed further proof he was drunk). That&rsquo;s when things got ugly- Bonner started punching and kicking at Powell as the officer was trying to help him up. He also used racial slurs and threatened to kill the officer. Bonner was arrested and charged with assaulting a police officer, disorderly conduct and making threats. After the scuffle, he was taken to the hospital where he was treated for his injuries, then thrown in jail.</span>

  2. Steven Tyler Called Racist By Idol Judge

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">According to The Wall Street Journal, Nicki Minaj, first-time judge on "American Idol" is sparring with former judgeSteven Tyler of Aerosmith fame. The two performers had a bit of a Twitter spat that ended in Minaj calling Tyler a racist. It went like this: Tyler: "If it was Bob Dylan, Nicki Minaj would have had him sent to the cornfield! Whereas, if it was Bob Dylan with us, we would have brought the best of him out, as we did with Phillip Phillips. Just saying." Minaj: "Steven Tyler said I would have sent Bob Dylan to a cornfield??? Steven, you haven't seen me judge one single solitary contestant yet!" She continued. "I understand you really wanted to keep your job but take that up with the producers. I haven't done anything to you. That's a racist comment," she said in a follow-up. She later added, "You assume that I wouldn't have liked Bob Dylan??? why? black? rapper? what? go f*** yourself and worry about yourself babe." That seemed to end it. Nobody from Tyler's camp has yet said a word about it.</span>

  9. School reform doesn't work

    In their commentary (&quot;Six steps for post-Alonso school reform," May 14), Thomas Wilcox, Diane Bell-McKoy and Laura Gamble use many lofty and idealistic sounding words to promote their vision. However, it bears noting that education "reformers" are well-versed in using terms that have an appeal, yet bear little substance. It's part of the script to sell the public on a model for education that actually requires a deeper analysis and understanding. Words like "choice" and "accountability" have done for the corporate-model of education reform what buzz words like "whole grain" and "real fruit juice" have done for the food processing industry. Thus, commentaries such as this warrant a translation. My translation as follows is not grounded in empty rhetoric or phrases, but instead relies on facts and examples from other urban areas, to predict what such school, reform may indeed come to look like in Baltimore. The question will then remain: are we willing to buy this model? Or should we read the label more carefully?
