More Science That Says Kids Should All Be Back in School
Every time I read the NH Union Leader’s Tag line, I laugh. The state’s “biggest” newspaper reminds us that “There is nothin as Powerful as Truth.” How about not reporting it? That’s pretty powerful and has become the rule rather than the exception among New Hampshire “media.”
The D.C. Area Has Been Turned Into the Equivalent of the Baghdad “Green Zone”
I love learning military history and logistics. Why you might ask? Well, my family has a long history of service – beginning in the 17th century – but, when I was of the age to join the military, girls were pretty much restricted to typing and nursing, neither of which I thought suited me.

And You Thought I’ve Been Kidding Saying Schools Think Your Kids Are Theirs? Take a Read
As I have said countless times, Government schools truly believe that your kids really aren’t yours – the kids, ALL kids, belong to them. I’ve heard teachers say it. I’ve heard administrators say it. Sometimes by nuance and sometimes straight out (a “gaffe” as it is called).

Notable Quote – reinforcement for my previous post on Free Markets

Education Politics, Proselytization, and Preordination

Approved for Achievement?
