More from Oakland

* Now you can read the union’s side of the Oakland school board protest story. Comparing the superintendent to Hitler, calling him a "bourgeois black man," and booing and heckling a fellow teacher seems par for the course for the BAMN (By Any Means Necessary) group. A short video of Oakland Education Association members marching into the meeting is available in QuickTime here. The chanting needs work. Once more with feeling!

* The United Federation of Teachers is looking to fill key positions in its second charter school. But since the job and school descriptions are password-protected it's going to limit the field somewhat. Interested job-seekers can e-mail inquiries to CharterJobSearch@UFT.ORG.

Due to the public outcry over the bathroom cleaning incident at UFT's first charter school, the union is seeing to it that the problem cannot happen again. Here is the school’s new custodian installing a child safety device in the restroom.

Ah, yes. Chanting always gets thing done faster.
