The sad thing is more then likly sexual offenders were sexually offended themselves.  if  a 6 year old was assulting someone looking into abuse of the 6 year old is the first thing authorities should do.

My sister works at the WI resource center.  This houses severe sexual offenders, that after their release a court can file to keep that sexual offender behind bars till they are deemed fit to enter society.  More then likely they do not pass the final stage which is i believe a picture test.  My sister has heard some pretty scary stuff i can get her to write something if anyone is interested.

Honestly the best part of electios is all the funny creative stuff people come up with.  If you didn't see the Sarah Silverman ... and Jimmy Kimmel ...videos you might not get this but hillary and Obama ... have their own!

Sorry this might offend some but the originals played on ABC so....

The type of Ice cream depends 1. on my mood and 2. Who I am with

I can not truly enjoy Cold Stones White Choclates and alonds while chasing 2 kids- best left while i am out with sis or mom

I love Dairy Dreams Pumpkin Pie blizzard- and Mcdonalds Shamrocks shakes and those only come certain times of the year

The best is and always will be leons in Oshkosh- Yummy Custard King- Girls in poddle skirts bringing Ice cream to your car.  There is also Ardy and Ed's, the girls are on Roller skates but NOTHING beats Leons custard! 

This is a great blog about homework, in a teachers opinion...say goodbye to homework  ...

This is my $.02

Wow- I am sending Nolan off next year for kindergarten.  We went to the first meeting were we were told benchmarks that were expected in the first quarter.  If they were not reach they would attend a special class.  Mind you Nolan is well beyond that benchmark the idea that a kid could be singled out so early in his school life was scary to me. 
Personally, mind you I am not a teacher, I think homework should address more how how the work that was learned in school relates to a childs everyday life, especially the first couple of years.  i.e. reading signs and newspapers- math in everyday life.
