Some of them will determine if we are really determined to make ourselves heard and to ensure that our demands are met and we really want work conditions to be changed especially in terms of security the. Teenager has attacked a school in eastern siberia injuring six people including a teacher. Good man into the class and inflicted injury same three School Children and a teacher with the next a child received a blow to the face another one was struck on the back and another girl lost some friends. And you see this in this book when they were sitting at home nothing like this could have been expected from that action and i dont know many could have anticipated this would happen. Oh my god when i look at the super. Bowl amid a string of similar attacks throughout russia this week with details is artistically. The past five days have seen a frightening trend creeping up in russia with three different attacks occurring at schools. And all of those cases the young perpetrators used basic weapons not an axis as that was likely all that they had at their disposal and a disturbing online trend may also link these incidents our sources believe that violent online groups that center around tragedies like the Columbine High School massacre may also be a common factor just to remind you the columbine tragedy took place in the u. S. Back in one thousand nine hundred ninety two students armed to the teeth killed twelve of their classmates and a teacher and that horrific massacre is apparently inspiring violence and children who werent even born when it happened its so popular that the followers of such groups even have a name for themselves columbine years now russias version of facebook called v. K. Has dozens of these pages open to all we did a simple quick search and found scores of them with post that promote violent behavior things like describing the power someone feels when they have a gun in their hands one of the alleged perpetrators of mondays incident has been confirmed to be a follower of such pages and todays and wednesdays instance are being looked into see if the same is true for them as of today russian officials have announced that they will begin shutting down pages with extremist content group where he took a number of groups like this is relatively small its not a mass phenomenon were not going to do it every single mention of every bad thing were doing with calls to action not with information per se we dont think that if a person reads about someone slaughtering somebody will pick up a knife and commit a crime. But the question remains if closing pages will really be enough in the long run especially given that a number of students have already taken the next stop and used violence against their classmates. The military incursion into the kurdish controlled region of syria will bring the full story after this short break. Heres what people have been saying about redacted and. The only show i go out of my way to. The really packed a punch. Is the john oliver of party americans do the same we are apparently better than. The sea people you never heard of redacted the night president of the world bank. Seriously he sent us an email i think what drove needs consequence and confidence is based on common goals i strongly believe that the us and europe have you played a big role in the United States has been. A partner in creating that tool based system. Im afraid that. Through air force and especially language President Trump has been using. Im not confident that the contribution of the United States to that school based system he asked really see the speech. He took his defense ministers announced his country has launched a military operation in syrias kurdish controlled african region starting with cross border shelling. Has more on how events unfolded. Were hearing from the Turkish Defense minister that a de facto Turkish Military operation has begun across its border now this is been corroborated by the syrian kurds the white jeep who say that since those day night some seventy shells have been fired by the Turkish Military on to their villages now its one of the only a statement by the turkish president and the one in which he said that the United States had admitted to establishing a terrorist army on the turkish Syrian Border any chord on the United States to deal with that terror at its infrastructure and these comments by the turkish president so infuriated could see living in the afan region that earlier they took to the streets also they were protesting against what you see happening slowly on the ground which is turkish tanks needing to be excluded this is what citizens of us have to say. Right now our freedom will be the ones graveyard today hundreds of thousands are protesting to tell him that the people of our friend will never leave their land. The International Community should send a message to turkey telling them to stop. The y. P. G. M. And stand so we can defend ourselves. While this comes often people statement that the Coalition Forces were working closely with the Syrian Democratic forces to establish and train a new Syrian BorderSecurity Force but what weve seen happening is the American Administration backpedaling now on plans to establish such a border force essentially after it created such a huge and furious backlash from americas close ally turkey the u. S. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson has said that the entire issue has been mis portrayed and mr scribed the u. S. State department has this to say is he saying that when the pentagon says were going to try to commit forces because the people that took that long we see just disappearing i wouldnt i would have to refer you to the department of defense on that i think they. Were clear in the statement that they put out so let me just refer you to them. But im asking that question was yesterday we said theres no or the Security Force thats not what it is like i dont have to refer you to the turkish government about what they became so concerned about and the fact that somebody misspoke and im not going to name any names and neither is the secretary but somebody clearly just misstated their policy its as simple as that the situation is extremely tense on the ground and it has the possibility of igniting into something much bigger so i think what it does show us is that words have the potential to ignite a potential war. Drug related crimes are becoming so bad in parts of the paris metro that train drivers are reportedly refusing to stop at certain stations thats according to a Union Representing the Metro Bus Network in the capital of the show he went underground to see what those fears a based on.

The problem is very dangerous for both the metro workers and for the commuters is even more dangerous they are targets of fast ive seen more than one hundred attacks take place within minutes of arriving if marks dorm or metro station we witnessed what looks like a drug deal the man with his back to the camera has just arrived with a bag in hand he was the platform stopping and exchanging some packages with people and then he left with his bag empty this seems to be the new normal.

Children. Twenty twenty five. Lived there we were we verse of course. Been attacked just one time because. We had in the middle of the night. Smart for.

In the middle of the sixtys there were thirteen Million Students enrolled in Higher Education in two thousand and fifteen there were two hundred million in less than fifteen years there are expected to be four hundred million to overachieve. Hold. While the demand keeps growing University Tuition fees skyrocket the world over the cost of education is high increasing. Their. Work harder is more. Mystery i dont understand how can a school be a scam. In the name of socalled economic pragmatism and as a result of International Competition university is a turning into a huge money making machine. And then in my family members went to university i think i wanted to be i wanted to be got one. From shanghai to new york to berlin countries around the world reflect trying different moves each remodelling its system in its own way but at what price and who profits from it. Really are at the starting point of our story which begins at the end of the ninetys. At that time you have this financial izing itself all the while expanding many intellectuals European University president s and expert groups engage in a vast reflection on how to build a more complete more ambitious europe. How to strengthen its intellectual scientific and technological influence. What is the secret of the United States and its economic power. The answer lies in Higher Education and research. A realm that has become undeniably strategic. At the end of the Twentieth Century american universities prevail and rule europe is afraid afraid of finding itself on the sidelines it needs a strategy and so european gauges in a series of reforms to make its Higher Education more competitive so it can serve europes economy its productivity its job market and its liberal project england will quickly set the tone before anyone else and to get straight to the point. After the Second World War we had a system where local education authorities around the country were responsible for providing a grant to students and giving of covering tuitions fees. And that was at a time when roughly three percent of eighteen year olds went to university around twenty thousand. All science students will. Be required to attend lectures on physics chemistry mathematics and biology it will also be possible for science students to major in philosophy knowledge is not bullshit look at what a huge mit one in one and covering all suck of all all places. In the nineteen eighties and nine hundred ninety s. There was a Funding Crisis amongst universities lots of vice chancellors complaining that they didnt have enough money to cover the amount of students are now coming through the system so the government commissioned a report and this was called the deering report and that came up with a number of recommendations almost one hundred recommendations roughly half for the government about how it could. Maintain sustain and improve Higher Education in the u. K. And one of the most controversial parts of that report was the introduction of was in one thousand nine hundred seventy the british left led by its young charismatic candidate tony blair wins the elections after eighteen long years of conservative rule. At the age of forty three the head of the labor party takes charge of the country with a program whose foundation is to apply private sector management models to Public Services so as to make them more efficient more productive in the Higher Education will be no exception. Right. We need to widen access to universities get more money into universities and the best and fairest way to do it is a balance between the state and the graduate. Face became reality and nine hundred ninety eight and it was a key landmark in the history of Higher Education in the u. K. Because at that moment the principle of Free Education free Higher Education in the u. K. Finished. For this historic reform tony blair introduces the yearly one thousand pound tuition fee a smooth way to start five years later prompted by his second term election tony blair authorizes universities to charge tuition fees up to three thousand three hundred pounds yearly and tony blair. Head of britains labor party successfully passed a reform that the conservatives would never have dared bring forward. In two thousand and ten the labor party rallies the opposition the coalition made of liberal democrats and conservatives led by David Cameron take charge
