We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

12. Sputnik Era
• The 1950's escorted in a new political concern for the United States as the
Soviets moved into Eastern Europe and asserted control over the many of the
countries in that region.
• The United States believed its mission was to prevent the further spread of
Communism and dominate the Soviets in every aspect.
• In 1957 the Soviet Union, set off a shock wave in the United States with the
first successful launch of an artificial satellite called Sputnik.
• Almost immediately politicians blamed this failing on the American
educational system claiming it wasn't rigorous enough and that more
attention needed to be paid to mathematics and science education.
• The federal government appropriated millions of dollars for educational
reform.
An interesting fact – all of the focus on Science Education that prevailed in the
early 60’s shifted with NCLB. Students received intensive math and
language arts instruction and very little Science or Social Studies.

13. In 1896, the U.S. Supreme Court had ruled that segregation
was constitutional as long as separate facilities were equal.
Since the 1930s, lawyers for the National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) had traveled
throughout the South, gathering evidence to prove that
segregated schools were never equal and that black schools
were often desperately underfunded. By ending inequality
in schools, they hoped to bring down all segregation in
America.
In 1950, having laid a foundation of protests and
legal challenges, the NAACP was ready to take its
case to the highest court in the land. That year, the
NAACP enlisted thirteen black parents in Topeka to
serve as plaintiffs in the case they were building.
They advised the parents to try to enroll their
children in white schools near their homes. That fall,
the Reverend Oliver Brown walked his eight-year-
old daughter Linda to the Sumner School…
The case, filed as Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, went to the Supreme Court, where it was argued by
Thurgood Marshall and other attorneys from the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. They spoke on behalf of plaintiffs
not only in Topeka, Kansas, but also in South Carolina, Delaware, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. On May
17, 1954, Chief Justice Earl Warren announced the court’s unanimous decision: “It is doubtful that any child may
reasonably be expected to succeed in life if he is denied the opportunity of an education. Such an opportunity…is a
right which must be available to all on equal terms. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal
14. Desegregation – Still took years
