Obama makes second annual address to students
Once again, President Obama is addressing the country’s children during the school day tomorrow. Last year, you may recall the controversy this stirred. Many parents threatened to keep their students home from school to avoid indoctrination from the president. Lakota officials chose not to air the speech, but made it available to students who cared to watch it at a later date. Students at Fairfield City Schools watched it live.
Essentially, the speech talked about staying in school, working hard, keeping germs in check and other student-focused topics. One boy sitting behind the president earned 15 minutes of fame by falling asleep during the historic speech.
Lakota officials have sent information to parents about the address this year. It will not be aired during class time live on Sept. 14, but rather the day after during study halls. This will be optional, and parents may fill out a form to exclude their child from the viewing.
Did anyone watch last year’s address? Thoughts on what topics might come up in this one? Here is a link to watch the 2009 speech and see the speech live this year at 1 p.m.

or more details on this story, check out CNN affiliates WFOR and WSVN. Miami, Florida (CNN) — A Florida man who admitted to the near-fatal beating of his 2-year-old son while teaching him how to box remained behind bars Thursday after a judge charged him with second-degree murder and denied him bond. Lee Willie Dejesus, 23, of Homestead, appeared in court Wednesday night wearing a green protective vest, reserved for those on suicide watch, reported CNN affiliate WFOR. His son — identified by CNN affiliate WSVN as Willy Brown — was on life support Wednesday and not expected to recover from his injuries, said Ed Griffith, spokesman for the Miami-Dade state attorney’s office. Prosecutors said they plan to file first-degree murder charges once the child dies. Miami-Dade police said Dejesus was watching the child while his mother was at work Monday night. He told police that he put on boxing gloves and struck the child about 15 times on his face, head, torso and shoulders over a period of 15 minutes, punching him so hard at one point that the boy fell off the bed and struck his head on the tile floor. The child was rushed to Children’s Hospital where he underwent surgery for bleeding on the brain. Griffith said the boy may be brain dead. A criminal complaint alleges that Dejesus waited to call for medical help for as long as an hour after the boy became unresponsive. He eventually called 911 after the boy’s lips became blue, according to the complaint. Dejesus initially told police that the boy was beaten by a babysitter before admitting he did it, the complaint says.
