...

The California Alternative High School in Los Angeles targeted Hispanic immigrants, charging $450 to $1,450 for a 10-week course it said would lead to a valid diploma and help them get into college, find better jobs and get financial aid, California Attorney General Bill Lockyer said last week.

*The United States has 53 states but the "flag has not yet been updated to reflect the addition of the last three states" -- Hawaii, Alaska and Puerto Rico.


*World War II began in 1938 and ended in 1942.


*There are two houses of Congress -- the Senate and the House, and "one is for Democrats and the other is for the Republicans, respectively."

I'm a little curious as to why the various states are shutting them down. There are many private religious schools that teach demonstratable false information as a matter of course (he he no pun really). Heck, some public schools as well.
