| Bringing you the information and tools you need in order to improve public education and lower taxes and spending; during the past two decades of the voucher debate an entire generation has grown up in the public school system. If you don't think this is important look at the Nov. 2008 election where folks voted based on emotions and hope rather than facts. Let's put a stop to the school-to-prison pipeline -- and keep our public schools locally run, strong and free.. |

| About the "Don't Tread on Me" Gadsden flag: "it was in the fall of 1775 when the United States Navy was established. Their main job was to intercept British ships who were attempting to deliver supplies to the British troups in the colonies. To support the Navy, five companies of Marines were mustered to accompany them on their first mission. These first Marines originated from Philadelphia and carried drums painted yellow with a coiled rattlesnake with thirteen rattles. These thirteen rattles represented the original thirteen colonies. The motto painted on these drums was "Don't Tread On Me". This is the first recorded telling of what the future Gadsden flag would symbolize. This flag was designed and named after American patriot Christopher Gadsden." (SOURCE) |

According to the sign visible behind Huseyin at
right, the Istanbul Market sells groceries, from
Europe and the Mediterranean.
It doesn't look like a very large store, does it?
Wanting to know more, I eventually found a bill
of lading from 2006 for Marka Trade's purchase
of 152 packages of Italian-made mattress bases.
Hmmm. What on Earth would a small grocery
business be doing with so many beds? Where
would they put them?
Were Cosmos Foundation's officers like Mustafa
Ata Atik elected by voters, we could ask him
questions like this come election time.
But, alas, Cosmos Foundation board members are
appointed, not elected; I've been asking Cosmos
superintendent Soner Tarim these questions since
last June 2 with no information provided yet
beyond a June 5 promise to respond which has
not yet been honored.
