Read them and then you will know what Mr. P is talking about. Don't read them and remain as ignorant as a cow, sheep or jellyfish. The choice is yours. Lastly, Mr. P re-reads these books every few years to keep the ideas from these books fresh in his mind. He suggests others do the same. Again, the choice is yours.

P-Ville Citizen Informational Contribution
Written by
Master P & Philosopher Queen Vivian
Simply sign up in class for two websites. The purpose of being an “expert observer” of these sites is to gather, learn about and report back to class information / news that is not being discussed on mainstream news (CNN, FOX, NBC, etc) or newspapers (Daily Breeze, LA Times, etc) so P-Ville Citizens can become more informed members on planet Earth. Sign up for your citizen contribution for P-Ville and be prepared to share your informational findings during your Supreme Council member’s daily announcements at the start of class. Sharing information with class will earn you P-Ville points.
1) BBC = http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/default.stm
British Broadcast Company is one of the largest news services in the world. It has quality reporting on news from around the world. You will be blown away by what is happening around the world. BBC does a pretty good job of covering news around the world. Sign up to monitor this website for interesting stories that might not be covered or is overlooked by US media. You may focus on one particular portion of the BBC website such as news about Europe or news about Science / Nature. Report back to P-Ville citizens news stories you think they should know.
1) Europe_____________________ 2) Americas______________________3)Asia_________________________
4) Middle East:_________________ 5) Africa:________________________ 6) Education:___________________
7) Business:____________________ 8) Health:________________________ 9) Any & All: __________________
2) C-SPAN = http://www.c-span.org/
This is US tax money well at work. It is a government TV channel and website. The purpose of C-SPAN is to make available to the public information pertaining to US government daily activity. C-SPAN presents massive amount of video & audio footage and written information about government. For example, anyone can watch entire speeches or press conferences by the President, entire debates in Congress, interviews with American historians, professors, writers and other informative folks. C-SPAN is good because it allows anyone to watch the entire NEWS without commercials. Mainstream news (CNN, FOX, NBC, etc) is fast, skips details and only shows you a short portion of a congressional debate or presidential press conference. Thus, with C-SPAN you get a bigger and better picture of what is happening in government on a daily basis. Report any interesting findings back to P-Ville citizens. There is much to report back to class.
1) Recent Programs________________________________2) This Week?________________________________
3) Cool Info from Video Library:____________________ 4) Any Random Cool Info:_______________________
3) Congress.org = http://www.congress.org/congressorg/home/
This site provides easy to gather information such as who are your government leaders (if you do NOT know). Not only does it tell you your government leaders, but it provides detailed information about any leaders in government. It also contains up to date information on what laws are being proposed and voted on in Congress. There are other features as well such as blogs posted on various topics by US citizens from around the country. You can post your own blog for Americans to comment on or you can comment on other blogs posted at this site. Monitor this site and report back to the class any interesting information you think is not being covered by mainstream TV news.
1) Recent Posts________________________________2) Votes In Congress?________________________________
3) Congress Info:____________________ 4) Any Random Cool Info:_______________________
Monitor both these websites (Democracy Now & National Review)
4) National Review = http://www.nationalreview.com/
This website is a bit difficult to navigate, but it is well worth it. There are many interesting things you can find there if you look around. One of its most prominent features is the media blog. The media blog is where opinions are written on what’s going on the media. It helps you stay alert and informed.
5) Democracy Now = http://democracynow.org/
Monitor both these websites (Democracy Now & National Review). Compare and contrast the information on these two websites. Each will cover news stories that the other website will not cover. Why? That is for you to figure out and present back to P-Ville Citizens. Also, these two websites will sometimes cover the same news story. However, you will quickly notice that one website will cover the same story in a positive way and the other website will cover the same story in a negative way. Why? That is for you to figure out and report back to class.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
6) NOW PBS.org = http://www.pbs.org/now/index.html
In the day and age where a handful of major corporations control the media, it is important to value the gems left to us like PBS. NOW is a commentary show which discusses currents affairs, and makes very good points. Since we can’t be (and shouldn’t be) glued to our television sets, the NOW website offers a recap of shows, the schedule, interactive multimedia, and an RSS feed. (You can watch episodes on your computer.) It is nice to glance through, as NOW does tend to focus on events that are important and effects all as citizens of the world. Report NOW weekly to class or any older interesting programs that are located in the NOW video archives.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
7) Opensecrets.org = http://www.opensecrets.org/
Want to find out how much money any person or corporation gives to any politician? Want to know where politician gets donations for election campaigns? This is the site to find such information. You can find out “who” politicians might really be representing.
Get the scoop on things and then report them back to P-Ville.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
8) HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH
hrw.org --- Human Rights Watch
amnesty.org --- Amnesty International
The Human Rights website is pretty self explanatory, except the content is more than just whatever pops into your head when you think “human rights watch.” It focuses on stories and happenings around the world that effect people. We are people, so they impact us. We should be aware of what is happening to our rights, not just in our neighborhood, but around the world, because what happens in one place can happen in another.
Amnesty international raises important issues. They work mainly on volunteers. Do you want to keep your rights? Well, you can’t really know how to keep them if they are being taken away. Gather and check information from this site and report your findings to the State of P.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
3) ____________________________ 4) ________________________________
9) CIA.ORG = http://www.cia.gov/
The country’s central intelligence agency website is a swell place to visit. You can find many “cold hard facts” on here. They have information about different countries, national affairs, information on jobholders in the government. They offer it all in a simple, organized method. So if you like facts, this is the place for you.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
10) Census.org = http://www.census.gov/
Interested in stats such as population, average income, poverty, trading with other countries, jobs and so on? Then this website is for you. Search this site, gather stats that you think students will find interesting and report them back to class. It is that simple.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
11) Weekly Standard = http://www.weeklystandard.com/
Looking at as many different news sources today is as important as ever so we can find some kind of truth. The weekly standard is a magazine both in print and online, much like Time or Newsweek, but it’s published by America, Inc. If you want to know who that company is and what they want to say, find out by reading what they have to show you! Good to compare information on this site to NPR, BBC and DemocracyNow.org. Mr. P says this is mandatory reading if one wants to understand the full spectrum of politics.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
12) National Public Radio = www.NPR.org
NPR is pretty self-explanatory by its name. They provide good news and other interesting stories. The website offers pictures and written transcripts, as well as videos, and some downloads. However, the radio programs are broadcast on 88.3, 91.5, and 89.9 FM. The radio schedules are also available online. This is among Mr. P’s favorite sites. NPR has loads to offer.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
3) ____________________________ 4) ________________________________
13) Pacifica = www.kpfk.org
This is another one of those cool radio stations that offers good stories. They define themselves as Progressive and Independent, so if you want to know what’s that all about, check it out online or on 90.7 FM. It is good to compare the information on this site to the Weekly Standard. Pacifica was found in 1949 with the mission of promoting world peace. One nice thing is the station doesn’t have commercials because it is sponsored by listeners and not corporations. Pacifica has many different shows and voices expressed on it. Most focus on empowering “common” or “little” people and criticizing corruption led on by “elite” or “big” guys. Mr. P likes that it plays BBC radio, trippy Alan Watt lectures and super solid jazz really late at night. The Pacifica Archives has a massive audio collection of rare speeches and interviews with famous folks like MLK Jr, and not so famous folks like Mumia Abu Jamal.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
14) MotherJones.org = http://motherjones.org
The site defines itself: “Mother Jones is an independent nonprofit whose roots lie in a commitment to social justice implemented through first rate investigative reporting.” So what they’re saying is that they don’t print their magazine for money, but rather for people. They also offer things on their site like sweatshop-free shoes. That means the workers who made the shoe were paid at or above minimum wage, and work under good conditions, unlike the millions of products where manufacturers pay employees little to nothing.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
15) Historyteacher.net = http://www.historyteacher.net/
Historyteacher.net was made in part by Ms. Pojer, a teacher at Horace Greeley High School. She has plenty of study guides for American History, American History AP, European History, and American Government. It is updated with current information as often as possible. If you want to study or learn some new snazzy history facts, that’s the place to be. Mr. P says, “The website is super solid!”
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
16) Christian Science Monitor = http://www.csmonitor.com/
A church in Boston, Massachusetts publishes this newspaper five days a week. Although it is published by a church, it distributes news as a public service, not as a way to spread religion. Rather than using the networks other conglomerates use to get their news, they have their own writers in eleven countries.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
17) The Economist = http://www.economist.com/index.html
The Economist is a very high quality magazine sent out once a week, and stories are available online. They are news stories, but they are usually viewed from an economic standpoint, which is very interesting to look at. Economists around the US love it, so if that perspective interests you, a visit to the website is highly recommended.
1) ____________________________ 2) _______________________________
18) White House Daily Press Briefing = http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/briefings/
This website basically has transcripts of every time the government has to talk to the media. It is interesting to see what went on, and what they’re saying. So if it intrigues you to see how they answer questions, or what kind of questions are released, it’s definitely cool to think about.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
19) Financial Times = http://news.ft.com/world
This has information on stories dealing with money from all over the world. So, if that's what floats your boat, you should check it out. Finances are a lot more important than we'd like to think. They affect our everyday lives and affect our lifestyles. So, if you want to be aware and know what's up, read. Mr. P says, “Financial Times is rock solid for news!”
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
20) Foreign Affairs = http://www.foreignaffairs.org/
This website was founder around the 1920s by the Council of Foreign Affairs. The CFS is a non-profit organization that researches and looks at international affairs-what's going on in the world. They also look at foreign policy-how we relate to other countries. This news pertains to stuff far outside the Torrance bubble you live in.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
21) Fortune = http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/
This, once again covers the economic aspect. It's a magazine published by CNN money. If you like money matters, or looking at current events from an economic standpoint, you'll surely find this interesting. This site will contain information worth reporting back to class such as: Top 100 richest people in the world, what jobs are getting pay increases and what jobs are getting pay decreases. Got it?
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
22) FoxNews = http://www.foxnews.com/
Described by fair.com as the "most biased name in news." This was the first station to announce Bush as president when everyone else was still saying Gore. Having said that, they have politicians discussing current events on their Sunday show on Fox 11, which is never a dull one. If you think it'd be neat to watch conservative media, this is definitely the place to go. P-Ville students reviewing this site should compare news on this site to BBC, NPR, or DemocracyNow.org, to get a more “fair and balanced” approach to news. Indentify the difference between news coverage by Fox other news sources. Report the findings back to the subjects of P-Ville.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
23) The Nation = http://www.thenation.com/
This one is kind of self explanatory. It's a printed publication like "Time" but focuses on happenings around… you guessed it, the nation. It also includes some literary reviews and things like that. It's pretty interesting and fun.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
24) Tom Paine = http://www.tompaine.com/
There was this guy named Thomas Paine, and he wrote a pamphlet called "Common Sense," to support the American Revolution. The people that started this website think he had the right spirit, and provide news for a progressive America. If you want to know what progressive is, then follow the website, it's definitely an interesting news source.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
25) Wall Street Journal = http://online.wsj.com/public/media
The wall street journal is owned by Dow Jones & Company. As described by its title, it talks about finance. It also has many other interesting articles. The print version is made in Europe and Asia as well. They don't use photographs in their papers. The paper looks a lot thinner than most…but it's Sunday edition can take HOURS to read. That means this little monster is definitely full of content.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
26) Washington Post = http://www.washingtonpost.com/
The Washington Post is another one of America's top papers. It focuses on the news of Congress, The White House, and all the happenings of DC. It's famous for the news of Nixon's Watergate Scandal. If you think government is fun, check out this DC based newspaper.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
27) Annenberg Fact Check = http://www.factcheck.org/
This website is really interesting. It checks to see if what politicians have to say is true. They aren't biased for one party/politician or another. They're just there to give out information to make people more educated voters. They don't receive any money from corporations, and always have plenty of interesting things to read about.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
MONITOR 28-30 (below)
28) Federal Reserve Bank = http://woodrow.mpls.frb.fed.us/info/sites/
This is a website to help you get information on the Federal Reserve Bank all across the country. The Federal Reserve is basically what controls the nation's economy. If it's not doing too well, interest rates go up, and things start to cost more. So it's important to be informed and aware.
29) World Trade Organization = http://www.wto.org/
This organization creates the rules for trade around the world. There are often disputes about trade, and they all go o through the WTO, and you can find out about them there.
30) Yes Men = http://www.theyesmen.org/
These guys pretend to be from big organizations/companies, and they get invited to speak, and makes lots of trouble. There is also a movie to rent by these nutty guys entitled: Yes Men. If you think this is interesting (you rebels!) then check it out, you have to see for yourself.
(Monitor 28 -30) 28) Federal Reserve Bank 29) WTO 30) Yes Men
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
31) Pew Research = http://people-press.org/
The pew research center is an independent information provider. They take polls of how the nation feels towards the media. They also take polls on lots of current events and post them for people to see.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
32) Zogby Polls = http://zogby.com
This website has even more polls and is NY and DC based. It is printed in papers a lot. .Figures can lie and liars can figure. In other words, statistics and polls can be used in a variety of ways. Hence, do NOT look into stats and polls too too much. Report back interesting poll information to class.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
33) Gallup Polls = http://www.gallup.com/
This is a trademarked corporation, and is most frequently used in newspapers. If you like polls, look here. Figures can lie and liars can figure. In other words, statistics and polls can be used in a variety of ways. Hence, do NOT look into stats and polls too too much. Report back interesting poll information to class.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
34) Project Censored = http://www.projectcensored.org/
Project Censored was started in 1976 by Carl Jensen. He took a group of college students and started monitoring different news sites. They started published "yearbooks" of the top ten censored stories of the year. They explain why they believe they were censored why they're important stories. The yearbooks are always really good, but even the website has a lot of good information. If this sparks interest, look at it. So this is the website, if you want to hear what College Professor Jensen and his college students have to say about what important news stories are NOT being discussed enough in mainstream news. Most of the important new stories by Project Censored will shock you because…well, they might not if they were not censored, you know? Review site and report interesting findings to citizens of P-Ville.
1) ____________________________ 2) ________________________________
35) 60 Minutes on CBS Sunday Nights at 7pm. This weekly program examines 3 or 4 subjects in detail. Each subject is presented in a 15 minute segment. The subject matter varies and is usually interesting. Each segment attempts to explore multiple opinions about the subject matter. At the end, there is a 4 minute segment by a crazy cool old dude named Andy Rooney. He never fails to talk about something pretty trippy. Watch & tape 60 minutes. Then come in on Monday and briefly inform the citizens of P-Ville about the 60 minutes segments for this week’s show that you taped. Lend the tape to any students interested in watching the show. Keep a video archive of PURE 60 minute segments for future students of P-Ville to watch. Sound simple? It is. So get going on this one!

RANDOM INTERNATIONAL TRADITIONAL NEWS FROM PNN
So to prepare for the Holiday Season and being that this is the World History section of the Website, you all have to check this one out. Apparently, the Swedes have this wacky Christmas tradition of making a giant horse or goat from like a hay material after the harvest season. The Swedish city of Gavle claims to make the biggest giant goat or horse in the world. It is suppose to be a traditional symbol of Christmas in Sweden. The funny thing about the giant horse or goat is that it is suppose to be up through Christmas and the New Year but each year the giant horse or goat never makes it. Each year some phantom Swede (or others like even a 51 yr old American in 2001) comes along and lights the giant horse on fire. Each year security is stepped up and each year the burning of the giant goat gets more elaborate. Supposedly, it is big news in Sweden. The smirking newsman will come on TV and say something like, “Well, the giant goat got it early this year” or “Although it lasted longer than usual, the giant horse has suffered the same fate once again.” I hear that most Swedes laugh about the whole thing. Yet, the security tries to take it serious by preventing a burning and have the giant goat or horse make it to Christmas. This year security has a two 24 hour web-cam monitoring things. Also, there is apparently some inflammable substance to protect the giant goat from any possible attempts to burn it down. Will the security protect the giant goat until Christmas or will the same wacky burning tradition continue? Be sure to monitor this goofy international story during the holiday season. Lycka Till Giant Goat! ?

He will only be available to quickly examine projects (under 4 minutes) to offer suggestions so students might adjust and improve their projects before the due date.
3) Good luck! Lycka Till! Buena Suerte! May the force be with you! Do your best and be sure to turn in a quality final project that will be a useful tool for future students of world history. Remember: "All things on Earth are soon forgotten except the memory left behind in the minds of men." Be sure to leave your legacy behind at West.
1/2 of your experience of P-Ville will soon be behind you.

RANDOM INTERNATIONAL TRADITIONAL NEWS FROM PNN
So to prepare for the Holiday Season and being that this is the World History section of the Website, you all have to check this one out. Apparently, the Swedes have this wacky Christmas tradition of making a giant horse or goat from like a hay material after the harvest season. The Swedish city of Gavle claims to make the biggest giant goat or horse in the world. It is suppose to be a traditional symbol of Christmas in Sweden. The funny thing about the giant horse or goat is that it is suppose to be up through Christmas and the New Year but each year the giant horse or goat never makes it. Each year some phantom Swede (or others like even a 51 yr old American in 2001) comes along and lights the giant horse on fire. Each year security is stepped up and each year the burning of the giant goat gets more elaborate. Supposedly, it is big news in Sweden. The smirking newsman will come on TV and say something like, “Well, the giant goat got it early this year” or “Although it lasted longer than usual, the giant horse has suffered the same fate once again.” I hear that most Swedes laugh about the whole thing. Yet, the security tries to take it serious by preventing a burning and have the giant goat or horse make it to Christmas. This year security has a two 24 hour web-cam monitoring things. Also, there is apparently some inflammable substance to protect the giant goat from any possible attempts to burn it down. Will the security protect the giant goat until Christmas or will the same wacky burning tradition continue? Be sure to monitor this goofy international story during the holiday season. Lycka Till Giant Goat! ?
