I tried all my possible means to get her back,after much begging,but all to no avail and she confirmed it that she has made her decision,and she never wanted to see me again. So on one evening,as i was coming back from work,i met an old friend of mine who asked of my wife So i explained every thing to her,so she told me that the only way i can get my wife back,is to visit a spell caster,because it has really worked for her too So i never believed in spell,but i had no other choice,than to follow her advice. Then she gave me the email address of the spell caster whom she visited.(bravespellcaster@gmail.com}, So the next morning,i sent a mail to the address she gave to me,and the spell caster assured me that i will get my wife back the next day what an amazing statement!! I never believed,so he spoke with me,and told me everything that i need to do. Then the next morning, So surprisingly, my wife who did not call me for the past seven {7}months,gave me a call to inform me that she was coming back So Amazing!! So that was how she came back that same day,with lots of love and joy,and she apologized for her mistake,and for the pain she caused me and my children. Then from that day,our relationship was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of a spell caster . So, was now stronger than how it were before,by the help of a spell caster . So, i will advice you out there to kindly visit the same website http://bravespellcaster.yolasite.com,if you are in any condition like this,or you have any problem related to "bringing your ex back. So thanks to Dr Brave for bringing back my wife,and brought great joy to my family once again.{bravespellcaster@gmail.com} , Thanks.<br />Natasha Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03946156926137605181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-41112341108352932982014-06-12T20:34:50.776-04:002014-06-12T20:34:50.776-04:00Anon 4:10

You have done an excellent job identifying the salient point of 3 posts written by BOB Somerby. But none of your answers tell us the role of gaps at any of the ages or locations specified.<br /><br />It was a trick question. You assumed you would find it here at TDH because the ages and places were in the titles of recent Somerby posts. Alas, he did not explain the role of gaps in any of those posts. For all we know they could have been written by any Sam Hill or random analyst.<br /><br />That mentioned, what has happened to those delightful analysts? Are they off in France learning Croation? Or have they been disappeared by the liberal media? Gack! Send out a search party.

It can't. You claim irresponsibility of absent fathers and single, government dependent mothers (neither of whom has any interest in reading to their kid) is harder to correct. No it isn't. Granted the easiest thing to do is to ignore those problems for any of the usual reasons liberals do, and pretend funding and programs will make up for it or make any meaningful difference to the problem at all.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-88071339237161189822014-06-12T16:02:17.569-04:002014-06-12T16:02:17.569-04:002:38, that sounds racist and judgmental2:38, that sounds racist and judgmentalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-80471990944407316772014-06-12T16:00:24.234-04:002014-06-12T16:00:24.234-04:007 out of 55, signed.

San Bernardino just closed its public libraries due to financial problems. Did anyone object? Not that you'd notice. Poor people already use libraries as homeless shelters and for job hunting. Encouraging them to use them for parenting by including day care or preschool story hours along with parenting resources, as libraries already do for job-hunting might be helpful. Libraries used to be seen as essential to democracy.

Her g...An hour ago, I was listening to Diane Rhem. Her guests were Robert Reich and Douglas Holtz-Eaken. They both agreed that there was a gap in education in the US.<br />Holtz-Eaken pointed out that NCLB left a wealth of statistics that rated school boards, school districts, principals, teachers, and state legislatures on quality.<br />Both economists agreed there were gaps based on demographics. The poorer the students, the lower the scores. Rich kids scored higher than poor kids, and poorly funded schools and their staff scored lower as well.<br />Reich pointed out that one said blames bad teachers (and their unions) and the other side blamed tight-fisted legislatures.<br />Both agreed that poor kids suffered learning deficiencies before they even got to kindergarten, and unless they were exceptional individuals, they never caught up.<br />My wife, who taught K-8 for 20 years, said both sides were right, but how were the schools going to hire better teachers if they can’t pay more?<br />Neal deGrasse Tyson has said that satisfying the curiosity of small children is the best way to stimulate them to learn. It can have lifetime benefits.<br />He went on to say that even if the kids live in a stimulating home environment, when they get to school, they are told to shut up and listen.<br /><br />Now I happen to believe that having books in the house, and seeing adults read books, and hearing them speak effectively, and having them let their kids satisfy their curiosity will give that child an advantage in learning over a lifetime.<br />Several years ago, when Bob pointed out those children whose parents keep books in the house, and read to them, and are seen reading, do much better in school.<br />So I asked Bob, “Well how do we, as concerned liberals, get those books into the homes, and the parents to read?”<br />Bob didn’t answer, but the question remains.<br />How do we?<br />Even if the problem is caused by a breakdown of societal values, how do we get deadbeat dads back in the homes, hopefully with armloads of books?<br />Quoting rates of divorce and out of wedlock childbearing, and blaming it all on Hollywood or liberals doesn’t solve anything. It only pushes the problem somewhere else, and to an area that is much harder to correct than preschool education.<br />By the way, my mother read books her whole life. She would take us to the library and let us check out anything we wanted, and bought a bookcase full of classics and a set of encyclopedias for us.<br />Also, we moved to France when I was five years old, and we lived on the economy, and we had French nannys and I had to learn a lot, and fast. So yes, I can say from experience that exposure to French parenting makes you smarter.<br /><br /><br />gravymeisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16075831177588700301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8611810694571930415.post-39734489740027811812014-06-12T14:17:00.057-04:002014-06-12T14:17:00.057-04:00But remember.
