Denver Public School Teachers Go on Strike
------------------------------------------

Denver public school teachers begin a strike today after 11th-hour
negotiations between the teachers' union and the school district failed
over the weekend. The Denver Classroom Teachers Association is demanding
an increase in teachers' base salary rather than putting money in
incentives and bonuses. This will be the city's first teachers' strike
in 25 years.
