So how are you celebrating Kräftskiva this summer? The crayfish party ('Kräftskiva' in Swedish) is an age old tradition marking the end of the Summer, and one that all scandinavians love to celebrate. Basically it's an excuse to have a humdinger of a party, which is maybe the reason why it seems to be gaining popularity in the UK, with establishments such as Ikea even starting to sell crayfish party packs and hold parties in their restaurants around the country. Commonly held in the month of August Kräftskiva is a good excuse to enjoy some choice crustaceans and lots (and lots) of liquor. Crayfish are usually accompanied by Västerbotten cheese, Knäckebröd (crispbreads) and Rodbetssallad (beetroot salad). All of this is washed down with lashings of beer and some glasses of Aquavit, an alcoholic scandinavian shot, with a few songs being sung along the way. Kitsch paper hats, paper tablecloths and bibs are regulation attire.
Two people who know how to throw the best crayfish party in town are Bronte (Danish) and her husband Jonas (Swedish) above. In 2006, having found no foodie treats from their home countries, they opened London's first Scandinavian Deli called the Scandi Kitchen just off Oxford Street. Scandi Kitchen is now one of the UK's leading Scandinavian food outlets, providing freshly made food and groceries from Scandinavia. Jonas tells us, 'Aquavit, the traditional Scandinavian liquor, is made from distilled grains and often flavoured with caraway, dill and fennel – this of course makes it a fine match for pickled, cured or otherwise salty seafood. Crayfish cooked with dill in a salty brine is no exception. Like other nations, Swedes and Finns struggle to drink in moderation when given the opportunity not to (same goes for skinny dipping) - and Swedes especially struggle to drink without singing!' With August fast approaching we caught up with Bronte and Jonas for their 8 rules on how to throw a cracking crustacean party.....scandi-style.

Some people believe that chess is the definitive tactical game (they obviously haven't played SWAT 4 online with us), and for those poor souls, Fritz Chess 9 claims to be "the ultimate chess videogame". We don't know if that makes you as excited as we are, but with this epic piece of software, we can finally challenge our PC hardware head-on, and send it fleeing with its tail between its legs.
With an improved and more powerful chess engine, Fritz Chess 9 promises to be "the best chess-playing game available". Unfortunately, despite what the bearded ones say, a chess simulator is about as thrilling as a night at the bingo with your gran. Played in either a 3D or top-down view, the game's engine throws around more tactical data than Jose Mourinho's blackboard, in addition to an annoying coach who warns you every time you make a stupid move. And don't worry if you're a chess virgin - there's a wealth of tutorial videos to guide the uneducated through this riveting Russian pastime too.
Fritz Chess 9 is designed to teach and train chess players, and should be treated as such. If you're looking for an authentic chess xperience, we suggest getting a real chessboard. That way you can experience all of the cold stares and inevitable post-match scuffles that come with this wonderful game.
Chess is as chess does

Columbia Men's Thermarator Omni-Heat Headring 10 10
GREAT! i bought this for my son because he gets too hot with a hat when playing outside with all his winter gear on...however i may start "borrowing" it because it works really well. November 12, 2014
great Headring I think the Headring is great. The only problem is there is not enough stretch material to keep it from moving around. It does a great job of keeping ears protected which is why I bought it. February 6, 2014
WOW! Never been warmer.... GREAT PRODUCT! Almost instantly, my ears began to feel warm. Within probably seconds, they were nice and toasty on a very cold....sub zero....day!! I liked it so much I went back the next day to buy one for my daughter!! (I think that's the best "testimony" to my satisfaction with the product!!:) ) Keep up the good work. I'll be looking for more Columbia products in the future. February 5, 2014
This product works way better than expected! I used this for when I went snowboarding to keep my ears warm and it worked PERFECTLY. It was about 0-10 degrees F while we were there and my ears did not get cold once. February 5, 2014
comfortable, versatile, easy to use This headring is comfortable, warm, easy to wear, and worth it's cost. January 28, 2014
Amazing I cannot believe how warm this keeps my ears. I was a little skeptical but now I'm a believer November 5, 2013
This product is TERRIFIC i bought these items for my gran children to use on there first ski trip, they were all very happy March 5, 2013
This product is so warm!!!! This product is so warm. I am always cold, so wearing this now makes me warm. I would recommend to anyone who is always complaining their ears are cold. It also looks very nice on. February 26, 2013
This product does not meet expectations. I am not at all satisfied with the construction of this head band. I get a headache every time the headband is worn. November 29, 2012
I like it use this on cooler weather runs...I like it! I didn't realize it was Men's until I saw this request for review. I don't care for items that have huge obnoxious logos so this fit the bill. It's very lightweight but kept my ears warm. I would recommend it and I will probably purchase more. November 14, 2012

I brewed up a 2.5 gal batch of diablo brew. The OG was 1.08 I fermented for 9 days. The air lock would still bubble about once a minute so I decided to rack it into a second fermenter in hopes to not have it take on an off taste. After I did this I took another gravity reading and got 1.04. I know I should have done this first but didn't think about it till after. I noticed now that the air lock is no longer bubbling and wanted to know if this will affect the beer at all and if the longer it sits in the second fermentation if the gravity will drop down to a 1.01?
The air lock is not a good indicator of gravity, your beer is still fine, right now i would imagine that the yeasts are processing the new o2 they were exposed to. And even if some are still producing co2 and alcohol from the sugar, others are in the aerobic stage sucking in enough of the oxygen so that the airlock won't bubble for a while.
If you started at 1.080, it's highly unlikely you'll get to 1.010. Especially now that you've transferred.
The keys to good attenuation:
-- Highly fermentable wort (what was the recipe / mash temperature?)
-- Good oxygenation prior to pitching;
-- A big, healthy starter, especially for bigger beers.
And as for "in hopes to not have it take on an off taste", you're more likely to acquire it from transferring, than by not transferring.

Bottled - NONE!
It was an extract beer. In the instructions it said that after 10 days to rack it into a secondary for a couple weeks before bottling. I am still trying to learn. I do some reading and watch videos. This is my second batch. My first was ok but not strong at all was like drinking o'douls.
Ok so I was about to bottle and got a reading of 1.03 my OG was 1.08. The directions say I should be at 1.01 or 1.012. How can i get it down I think I moved it to a second fermentation too soon. Should I put some sugar in and try and see if it will start to ferment some more? Or how much should I use to bottle.

Former G-Unit member Young Buck has discussed his relationship with Dr. Dre and revealed past failed attempts to get a hold of the Doc.
Despite being associated with Dre during his days as a G-Unit member, Buck said he has not gotten in touch with him for over three years.
"Dr. Dre is an individual who I wish I heard from at some point in time because his voice in my situation would means a lot. He don't have to on my side or [50 Cent's] side, but just say something, bro. I even told Game to say 'what's up' to Dre for me, but I haven't heard anything..I haven't received an email or spoken to Dre in three years…I haven't heard from Dr. Dre or Eminem… not to say my situation is any part of their business but at a point in time I was sitting in front of these dudes. And I'm not looking for them to take sides or anything, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what is being done to me from their artist." (VIBE)
In November 2004, Buck made headlines after being issued an arrest warrant for defending Dre at the VIBE Awards ceremony.
The Santa Monica Police Department issued a warrant for the arrest of G-Unit rapper Young Buck on Tuesday (November 16) in connection with the melee at Monday's Vibe Awards. After reviewing a videotape of the fight, investigators believe Buck (born David Darnell Brown) stabbed 26-year-old Los Angeles native Jimmy James Johnson after Johnson assaulted Dr. Dre during the ceremony at the Santa Monica Municipal Airport hangar. (MTV)
However, in 2005, Buck pleaded no contest to the charges and avoided jail time.
David Darnell Brown, 24, better known as G-Unit's Young Buck, pleaded guilty in Los Angeles to assault with a chance to produce bodily injury and in exchange, the charge of assault with a deadly weapon was dropped. He was sentenced to three years probation and 80 hours of community service work. (Access My Library)
In 2008, Buck was kicked out of the Unit, which ultimately led to severed relationships with 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Tony Yayo and other affiliates.
"You can look at it and see that's Game all the way. I was giving him a chance, giving him the benefit of the doubt [to remain with the group]. You can take this as an official notice right here – pretty much you can say: Young Buck is no longer in the group G-Unit, but signed to G-Unit as a solo artist," 50 said in an interview with radio host Miss Jones, revealing Buck's disassociation. (Hip Hop DX)

After watching the video, I can't say I would have behaved differently. Fight or flight is human nature regardless of our attacker.
I don't know laws very well, but based on my very uneducated opinion of a short cell phone clip, I'd give her her job back.
What an unfortunate situation.
I can't see the video. But it breaks my heart to see an actual journalistic entity write something as obscene as "according to the Daily Mail."
What a sad situation. Sad that the kid felt it was appropriate to act that way. Sad that she let it get that far. Sad that it will impact her ability to teach. If nothing else, the kids will be nervous and so will she. That's not an appropriate learning environment.
I'd have to say that it looks like self-defense, but I hope they'll at least put her in another school.
I think this was a reaction to a scary situation. The student was much larger than her and being aggressive in tone and body language.
I don't know what I would have done, but I think what she did was a natural reaction to being threatened in that manner.
Yes, she should get her job back.
How far do we take the limitations on what teachers can do? You could hear the kids in the background yelling that she had not right to touch him. I don't know. It just seems so sad all around and I wouldn't put it past anyone that the student doesn't sue the teacher for touching him.
ps Why does it seem like these things happen so often in Florida?
Definitely self defense. That kid gave her a body slam before she decked him! I'd love to see charges pressed against him.
The number of U.S. states in which a person can marry the person they love regardless of gender: 30 and counting!
Totally self defense. She should get her job back and he should be suspended/expelled.
That student was definitely trying to intimidate her, obviously thinking she would cower from him. If you threaten someone, they most certainly can defend themselves. He isn't a child and is fully responsible for his actions.
Wow. My first thought was, "that little bastard..."
Although it was a very short clip, the teacher can be heard loud and clear saying, "STEP BACK". Seems like she handled the situation the best she could up until that point. Self-defense is my opinion. That boy's body language was screaming "I am angry and will hurt you". I don't blame her at all. It's not like we are talking 3rd graders here. That was one big boy!

November 28, 2014
ROME (AP) - Silvio Berlusconi says he's running to be premier again - for the good of Italy.
The media mogul confirmed to reporters Saturday that he'll try for a fourth term. Berlusconi quit in disgrace as premier last year after failing to save Italy from its sovereign debt crisis. He has since been convicted of tax fraud and now faces plunging poll numbers.
He yanked support for Premier Mario Monti's technocrat government on Thursday, increasing the prospects for early elections.
Monti calls the political crisis triggered by the loss of Berlusconi's support "manageable" and says his government has rescued Italy from financial disaster.
Berlusconi says "the campaign is already on" and he's running "out of a sense of responsibility" toward recession-plagued Italy.

Once again, Putin´s "Benghazi" demonstrates that the cover-up is often worse than the screw-up.I still don´t believe that Putin specifically ordered the takedown of MH-17 - something or someone screwed up big time - but Putin´s defiance and refusal to "come clean", like our Emperor´s in the Benghazi case, reveals a more general and ominous intent.I don´t know that Putin can be persuaded at this point to turn back from the "dark side", and I am pretty sure that the current pResident is not capable of doing so even if it were possible. All we can pray for is that WWIII doesn´t break out before we can get a POTUS who can make Putin feel the heat, if Putin cannot see the light.Our European allies are part of the problem. It is time to put some heat on them, as well. UK´s Defence Secretary Philip Hammond is showing the way by threatening to support a EU pullout regarding his issues with Brussels. The UK doesn´t have to be in the EU, and the US doesn´t have to be in NATO. Alliance is a two-way street.Dangerous times have morphed into ominous times.

Putin is reacting with sobriety and common sense, unlike other leaders who are reacting with emotion and jumping to conclusions without waiting for facts to emerge.I must confess I am one of the people who don´t know how GWB would have reacted to this tragedy. What substantive action (not merely using harsher rhetoric to condemn whomever he would want to condemn) would GWB have taken in reaction to this tragedy? I hope he wouldn´t have started a war against Russia.

There is a lot between going to war and doing nothing, #6. Since the fall of the Soviet Union a lot of doors have been opened to Russia that give access to Western institutions, markets, and resources. Some of those doors can be closed to apply the heat. Our European allies, for their own reasons - mostly economic, stand in the way. We need to apply the heat on them, as well.There is a time for "sobriety and common sense" and there is also a time for outrage. Putin´s "cool" in this matter reveals complicity more than it does maturity.

St. Pius X is a little gem of a school nestled among beautiful trees and parks. Teachers stay forever and you never hears parents complain. Such a lovely atmosphere for children to be surrounded by. Super involved parents.
St. Pius is the second catholic school my children have attended and we are so HAPPY with this school. After my last experience I started to wonder about all catholic schools, but now I realize it's just individual. The teachers, faculty and families care about each child as an individual. The academics are also top notch!
I went St. Pius from K-8. I graduated in the late nineties, and still have many fond memories of SPX. I still have friendships with some of the girls I was friends with in middle school. It had a great community feel to it, where you don't feel like a number.
My child first attended St Pius X in the First grade and now he is in Fourth grade. I have been very pleased with the school. St. Pius is a small school and he has never had more than 20 students in his class and each grade has 2 classes. The teachers and staff are the best. The academics far exceeded by expectations. By son is receiving an equivalent education as someone at a more expensive private school. The Catholic education was also an important factor for me.
We came to St. Puis X last year. Our child was in the fourth grade and it was her 9th school to attend. So, unfortunately we have seen a lot schools. This school by far exceeds all the other shools our children have attended. The teachers and staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The academics have been great and her experiences at the school have been so worth yet another move. I only hope she can stay here and continue to make friends. The sports have been a great plus. Some are competive but most are not and all stress good sportsmanship and learning the game. There are many more areas I could mention. The school is really a great peaceful, safe environment and we are truly grateful to all the teachers and staff.

the food was not very good at hotel
Only 500 metres to the Border with Gibraltar. Clean rooms which are cleaned daily. Great choice for Breakfast.
Poor Wi-Fi reception in room. Parking expensive at 10 Euros per day.
Close to border, nice outdoor pool
Rather grubby area, no on street parking, need to pay extra for security box, TV did not work
Close to the border and town was gteat fun
Breakfast was ok.
Location from airport, easy walk. Price was good, but you get what you pay for!
The area is rough, nothing to see really and rather unpleasant. Maybe 2+ star rating would be realistic for this hotel
We had a pleasant stay.
Location, Cleanliness and Price
Close to frontier. Under cover parking friendly staff
Was not pleased that hotel would not honour the price of my reservation via booking.com they said they did work with booking.com anymore They consequentially charged me more for each night reservation and extra for breakfast which was originally included. Internet was very poor in the room but okay by the lift would not connect to a VPN connection either you could just about pick up email via wi-fi
The comfort
Mosquitos in room..also noisy corridors
Location, just a short stroll to Gibralter. The city of La linea I liked very much, its' bus station is around the corner of this hotel.
The pool area was rather featureless though not unpleasant.My balcony was in shade all day, which may suit some.
We had researched well and the hotel fitted all our expectations
there was nothing to dislike
Lovely view of the Rock.Easy walk to Gibraltar even with my 84year old father.We are going back in April for a return visit.Lovely clean room and comfortable beds!
everything from position,cleanliness and of course value for money.
there was nothing we did not like.
Location of hotel to gibraltar
Didn't think it rated 4 star
We liked the location of this hotel as we wanted to visit Gibraltar but the hotels we were interested in there were fully booked.This hotel was in Spain but just a 10 minute walk over the border from the airport. Price was good for the accomodation & location fab.
We couldnt sleep at all the first night as the beds(triple room) were the most uncomfortable we have EVER slept in-rock solid with springs poking into us(& my hubby is the type that could sleep on a bed of nails) The staff kindly changed our room to a double(we didnt mind sharing with our daughter,it was that bad!) it was better but still not good. Would I stay here again? No. Recommend it? Not unless you were on a budget.
Nice hotel.
Some breakfast are cold.
Everything was ok.
1) Location 2) Friendly Staff
1) didnt suit business group trip 2) had to pay extra for children staying in room sleeping on a sofa
high standard of finishing, free wifi, breakfast and cheap evening buffet.
Area around the hotel not great but stick to sea front and you're fine.
Rock view was extra, poor coffee and Orange juice at breakfast
Location to Gibraltar.
Price, having to pay for parking and safe on top of room price. No tea/coffee making facilities in room. Breakfast was not up too much, stick to fruit and toast and you couldn't go wrong. More like a 2 star not 4 star.
Close to gibraltar
Poor staff dirty accommodation needs a revamp
The breakfast selection was huge and good quality.
The room was really sub-standard. The bed was ridiculously hard and the pillow so thin I could have shaved with it! The mini bar price list was available unlike the drinks in there! Old Mother Hubbard had more in her cupboard! The shower was constantly hot then cold every few seconds. I had around 2 hours sleep all night. Never again.
Good room,great views,good restaurant,with good range of food.considering we were out of peak season,very happy overall
Nothing in particular
We had a great view of the Rock and the harbour. Food fine. A good base to visit friends in Gib and Marbella.
Area a bit run down.

Non-emergency ER patients to pay at GA medical center
Newton Medical Center will begin charging a $150 deposit to patients who don't have a true emergency condition yet still request care from the hospital's emergency room. Patients with insurance will be required to pay their co-pay or deductible. The move is being made to deter people, particularly the uninsured, who would otherwise abuse the ER by treating it as a primary care facility, according to hospital officials. The hope is to reduce unpaid medical bills and streamline the ER for true emergency patients, said Newton Medical spokeswoman Linda Moseley. So far in 2012, 12.5 % of visitors to Newton Medical's ER were not truly emergency cases, according to chief financial officer Troy Brooks. About a quarter of all ER visitors are uninsured, according to previous numbers provided by officials.

Your doctor may also suggest these tests to find out if you have Kaposi sarcoma (KS) and where it is:
Biopsy. This is a procedure in which tissue samples are removed (with a needle or during surgery) from the body for examination under a microscope to determine if cancer or other abnormal cells are present. There are two types of biopsy, including the following:
Needle biopsy. A small needle is inserted into the abnormal area in almost any part of the body, guided by imaging techniques if necessary, to obtain a tissue biopsy. This type of biopsy can provide a diagnosis without surgical intervention.
Open biopsy. This is a surgical procedure in which an incision is made through the skin to expose the tumor and allow a sample of tissue to be cut or scraped away.
Bronchoscopy. If your doctor sees suspicious lesions or nodules on the chest X-rays, he or she may recommend a bronchoscopy for diagnosis. This test uses a thin, flexible tube called a bronchoscope, which is equipped with a light and a camera lens. The doctor inserts it into your windpipe to look for lesions inside your trachea. Your doctor can take biopsies during this test to send to a pathologist to examine. A pathologist is a doctor trained in looking at cancer cells. If you have a bleeding lesion, the doctor can stop the bleeding during this test.
Computed tomography (CT scan). Your doctor may use this test for a more detailed evaluation of lung lesions. A CT scan uses an X-ray beam to take pictures of the inside of your body from many angles. A computer combines these pictures and gives the doctor a detailed cross-section view of the body.
Endoscopy. For lesions in the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract), the doctor will use a thin, flexible tube called an endoscope, which is equipped with a light and a camera lens. This tube lets the doctor see inside your esophagus, stomach, and a portion of your intestines. The doctor can use the endoscope to take biopsies of lesions in your GI tract. Lesions can also grow in your rectum. Sometimes, a doctor can find these lesions by inserting a gloved finger in your anus. Normally though, these lesions grow under the surface of rectal tissue and have to be found with an endoscope.
X-ray. An X-ray machine takes a picture of the inside of the chest. The doctor may use a chest X-ray to see KS in your lungs.

Fifth Third Bancorp's (FITB) second-quarter earnings rose 57% as the ongoing improvement in credit trends contributed to the regional bank's stronger-than-expected revenue growth.
For more than a decade, Fifth Third's hallmark was a tight grip on commercial lending in the Midwest. Late last year, the company hired a team of bankers and engineers to expand lending to energy companies, a move that also contributed to stronger-than-expected lending revenue in the first quarter.
Fifth Third reported a second-quarter profit of $603 million, up from $385 million a year earlier. Per-share earnings, which reflect the payment of preferred dividends, climbed to 66 cents from 40 cents a year ago.
Revenue, a combination of noninterest income and net interest income, jumped 23% to $1.95 billion.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had most recently forecast per-share earnings of 42 cents on revenue of $1.61 billion.
Loan-loss provisions, or funds set aside to cover bad loans, totaled $64 million in the second quarter, compared with $71 million a year earlier and $62 million in the prior quarter.
Net charge-offs, or loans the company no longer considers collectible, fell to 0.51% of average loans from 0.88% a year earlier and 0.63% in the first quarter.
Shares closed Wednesday at $18.99 and were inactive premarket. The stock has climbed 25% since the start of the year.

GAO not turning back; Consolidate the VA now; No SCADA scare; Telework: Clothes required
SCADA on thin ice
GAO not turning back
"'Ticked off' about pay at GAO" in FCW's May 15 issue contains a number of errors regarding the Government Accountability Office's new pay system.
First, all GAO employees who perform at a "meets expectations" level or better and who are paid within applicable market-based compensation ranges receive an annual across-the-board adjustment based on changes in the pay ranges each year. If employees did not receive an across-the-board adjustment, it is either because they did not meet the performance requirement or because their pay already exceeds competitive compensation levels.
GAO employees are also eligible for additional performance-related pay adjustments based on how they perform relative to their peer group.
Furthermore, GAO does not use an arbitrary and forced distribution system for rating employees.
With regard to budget considerations, the federal government is on an imprudent and unsustainable fiscal path partially because of the impending retirement of the baby boom generation. As a result, budgets are likely to get tighter in the future.
Therefore, it is of critical importance that we allocate our available compensation resources based on overall market conditions and individual performance.
Finally, it is not surprising that at least one unidentified information technology analyst does not like that employees are not guaranteed annual pay raises regardless of competitive market rates, their performance and our budget. Nonetheless, we will not return to the past, and we will continue to try to lead by example in connection with this and other transformation issues.
Consolidate the VA now
Regarding the May 31 FCW.com article, "McFarland: VA lacked info access controls": As an information technology employee for eight years at the Department of Veterans Affairs, I wholeheartedly agree with former chief information officer Robert McFarland and his efforts to centralize and align IT operations within the entire agency.
The disjointed IT operations within the Veterans Benefits Administration, the Veterans Health Administration, the National Cemetery Administration and the Central Office have had a negative impact on the efficiency, storage and security of veterans' data and has hindered a smooth transition to medical assistance in all phases.
I am just surprised that it has taken this long for the breach to be exposed.
I hope that the VA will align IT operations with the business of serving our veterans and their families to its fullest capacity and be a model of federal efficiency and operational security.
No SCADA scare
Regarding the May 8 FCW article, "SCADA on thin ice": The sky isn't falling, as the article implies. According to the article, these systems are 20 to 30 years old and use proprietary software. Does anybody really believe terrorists are going to spend the resources to maybe crack into one of these old systems just so they might be able to do harm? I don't think so.
I think a terrorist group is much more likely to go after easy targets by dumping chemicals directly into a city's water supply or taking out a high-voltage grid by blowing up a couple of towers and waiting for the domino effect to take place.
Some of the experts you quoted are merely trying to expand their business — and profits — by misleading the public, uninformed politicians and editors.
Telework: Clothes required
Regarding the June 6 FCW.com article, "Experts: Managers can impede telework, COOP": Jack Penkoske, director of manpower, personnel and security at the Defense Information Systems Agency, is a sage man. I telework — in fact, for his agency — and I agree with him on the necessity for a change in view.
I, too, have heard the questions about what employees wear while teleworking. Some of those conversations are not fit for reprinting.
If I am not visible to anyone outside my office space at home, what does it matter what I wear? Does my brain shut down if I don't put a tie around my neck and hang a jacket behind my door? I doubt that.
But when I am in DISA's office — or any place where I publicly represent DISA — I don't hesitate to wear a tie and, when appropriate, a jacket. And if I collaborate via a videoconference, I do what is necessary to present a professional appearance. Thankfully, that hasn't required a tux — yet. And I am still productive. Just ask my boss.
But no, I do not work naked. Ever.

Homeschooling Moms
Featured Posts
Until this school year is over. Then I will not have to send my 1st grade ds to school. He has till June 21. I just found out today(after the fact) that he was sitting by himself crying at gym because he hates gymnastics. His school does gymnastics for gym sometimes. The teachers did not know why he was crying. He would not tell them. I feel so bad for him. I wish the school would have told me. This happened on Friday. The only reason I found out was because I told the teacher today that he hates gymnastics. Gosh that makes me so mad. I know they cannot tell me everything but to me crying is important. Of course that is not the only reason I am homeschooling.
by NYCitymomx3May 6, 2013 at 10:02 PM
I wouldn't even wait til the end of the year. My kid would be out NOW.
May 6, 2013 at 10:30 PM
Wow... I am starting HS next year to and waiting sucks! My LO's last day is May 31. June 21 is a while away, I feel for you! I would stick it out until the end of the year to though. Let them know that crying is zero tolerance in your book and you want to be notified immediately if this happens again. Good luck!
by Pukalani79May 6, 2013 at 10:56 PM
I'm sorry. Like NYCitymom said, why wait? I pulled my daughter out this time last year. She had less than a month to go, and I got a lot of grief about but it was not worth putting her through that.
by luvcats406May 7, 2013 at 5:44 AM
- Yeah I have thought about pulling him out but he has an iep. After this year he does not need it. They told me he is doing good.
May 7, 2013 at 6:36 AMI can't wait either. I'm not sure how it will work financially for us, but where there's a will there's a way.
I would let him finish out the year, just because I feel like kids need closure. My DD wanted me to pull her a while ago, she keeps asking, but I want her to finish the school year. DS isn't even positive about leaving school so I won't pull him until the end of the year. Our year goes until June 28th :/. I also think it will be easier to just start fresh, I don't want to have to figure out evaluations and a portfolio for two months of school, and I want them to deschool for a bit before we jump in.
I was in the same situation where they would send my daughter out in the hall for the entire class period because they didn't have time to deal with her or find out why she was crying. If I could give advice, it would be to pull them now. We didn't, and I wish we would have. That was kindergarten and we just finished up second grade. So glad we came home :)
Quoting luvcats406:
- Yeah I have thought about pulling him out but he has an iep. After this year he does not need it. They told me he is doing good.
My son had an IEP too! I still pulled him That IEP did nothing to help him it just gave the teacher an out when it came to teaching him!

Resentment brewing in party over fall in UDF votes
The Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) has started introspection into the drastic fall in its vote share in the Ponnani Lok Sabha constituency.
Although party's national secretary E.T. Mohammed Basheer retained the seat in a keenly fought battle with LDF backed Independent V. Abdurahman, his margin fell considerably from 82,684 votes (in 2009) to 25,410 votes.
A former Congressman, Mr. Abdurahman is widely believed to have secured a good chunk of votes from the Congress pockets. The IUML's vote share in all Assembly segments under the Ponnani constituency fell considerably in spite of the systematic and strenuous efforts put up by the party machinery.
Although they did not blame the Congress in public, resentment is brewing within the party ranks over the fall in the UDF votes. In 2009, Mr. Basheer had secured 50.14 per cent of the votes (3,85,801) against LDF Independent Husain Randathani's 39.40 per cent votes (3,03,117).
In this election, IUML's vote share fell to 43.44 per cent. The IUML could secure only 3,78,503 votes (43.44 per cent) 7,298 votes short of the 2009 mandate in spite of an increase of 1,83,598 new voters over the last five years in the constituency.
''This is something serious. We need to take a close look into it,'' said a senior IUML State leader pleading not to be quoted.
When Mr. Basheer had polled 44.5 per cent votes in Ponnani Assembly segment in 2009, his vote share there fell this time to 37.14 per cent. In Tirurangadi, Mr. Basheer's vote share fell to 52.69 per cent from 56.6 per cent in 2009.
In Tanur, where the UDF had polled 51.2 per cent votes in 2009, Mr. Basheer's vote share fell to 44.99 per cent. In Tirur, the UDF vote share fell to 46.52 per cent from 55.6 per cent in 2009.
In Kottakkal, the League vote share fell to 47.35 per cent from 54.5 per cent in 2009.
In Thavanur, the UDF votes fell from 46.2 per cent to 37.57 per cent. In Thrithala, where the UDF had won 41.8 per cent votes in 2009, Mr. Basheer's vote share decreased to 37.88 per cent.
When the IUML votes fell considerably, the LDF has improved its vote share in Assembly segments such as Tanur, Tirur, Kottakkal, and Thavanur. The LDF vote share in the Ponnani Lok Sabha constituency has increased to 40.53 per cent from 39.40 per cent in 2009.
The IUML is analysing the fall in its vote share in the backdrop of new players such as SDPI, Welfare Party, Aam Admi Party and three namesakes of Abdurahman, and a considerable number of NOTA votes. When the BJP secured 8.63 per cent votes, all other players jointly secured less than 7.5 per cent votes in Ponnani.
''If a new player gets some votes, it cannot be the votes of only one party,'' said P. Abdul Hameed, IUML district secretary.
