An interesting query. How do most of my peers in this group come upon the words they post. I see we have a new website reference for unusual and uncommon words. Leaving this website aside, what are most peoples source. I for one, I get mine from the novels I read. I like historical fiction, especially noir or espionage/cold war stories. Thats why there are large breaks in my postings new words. Reading in-between teaching.

t1nick comments on Jul 8, 2019:

Your first premise isnt totally correct. Not all the members of the House and Senate (the House worse than the Senate) are well educated. Select members of the Freedom Caucus have demonstrated a lack of higher level education. Not only that, but a degree does not necessarily a guarantee of being either wise or intelligent. There are a lot of ways to cheat your way through a college degree (and the ethics of some of these politicians would not put it past them).

Research shows that the area of the brain associated with religious euphoria lights up the exact same brain centers as a cocaine high, sexual orgasm, a chocolate high, and a caffeine high. All these events are associated with both addiction and dopamine production. As such, the compelling need to repeat these activities are related to a desire to create the euphoria brought on the dopamine production (I dont know about any of you, but I can deal with the sex, caffeine, and chocolare addiction with no problem - lol).

I predict Donald Trump will win if Kamala Harris is the nominee.

t1nick comments on Jul 7, 2019:

This sounds like a white privilege perspective to me. I'm not sure this was your intent. From your bio you express concerns about troubling social trends that negatively impact marginalized groups. But your post reflects a whites only perspective. Kamala realizes that minorities are becoming a large voting block, and that Trump is spurring the dialogue around racial discrimenation as it hasnt been since 1964. She is betting that monorities, women , and the under 30 vote will be the tipping point in at last overtaking the white vote. Its early in the race, and she realizes that galvanizing her contigency will pay off down the road. Don't mistake my point. I'm not saying she is a shoe-in to win. And Im not saying that the contigency she is attempting to appeal too will ultimarely be successful in overtaking and reversing traditional white male dominance in politics in this next election. But she/they might be. She is part of a growing ground swell. It may not realize itself in 2020 fully, but it is a force to be reckoned with in the future.

I have been a teacher in the Native American community for over 30 years. I began my teaching career teaching on the Hopi Reservation. A geographically isolated reservation that still had most of their culture (albeit they too have beem affected by the main stream culture - but not as much by Christianity 30 years sgo). Now 30 years later, living and teaching on the Navajo Reservation I see a definitive impact of Christianity on the Native community. I would not be exaggerating if I were to postulate that at least 95% of my community identify themselves as Christian and Native. All public ceremonies are begun with a Christian prayer and end with a Chrisrian prayer. As a side note, we require one year of a foreign language as a high school graduation requirement. Our foreign language is native Navajo. Their own language is being treated as a foreign language because the vast majority of students coming to us only speak or understand just a few words of their own language. Our way at preserving the language, but I worry the message of their language as a foreign language is troubling. 60% of the students resent or resist the classes and the required learning of their own language.

CB, from what youve posted over course of last year, it seems like Frankie has been there for you. I know at one point he wanted marry (if I am remembering correctly), but you weren't ready. Now that Jillian is here is Frankie still standing by you? I know his catholic family is a challenge. Having said all that, the question remains, what level of commitment to want and need now? Do you have any questions or nagging gut feelings that Frankie is not commited. Close your eyes and think about Frankie. Is there any thing that causes discomfort in your stomach when you think about him. Any regrets or hesitations. If not thats a good sign. If yes, is it something that can be overcome. Nothing is a absolutely for sure or certain. One generally knows in their gut if its not right, the red flags that eventually become something insurmountable. This is a difficult time because, with the new baby there are so many emotions, feelings, and hormones. Take your time, be sure one way or the other. Don't hurry.

AOC doesn't have to dehumanize CBP officials, they are doing a good job of that themselves. Ill treatment of people is ill treatment of people. Plain and simple. Whether you compare how Hitler treated people, how Stalin treated people, how Mao treated people, or how Pol Pot treated people, inhumane treatment is inhumane treatment. Getting hung up on terminology doesn't change the truth. CPB are acting like the bad actors they are taking umbrage at being compared to.

Post election statistics show that of the 42% of the nation that did not vote, the majority favored voting Democrat over Rupublican. Both candidates unfavorables were above 50%.

Number Of Teachers Quitting The Classroom After Just One Year Hits All-Time High

t1nick comments on Jun 30, 2019:

Alright, this article is about the UK, not the US. On average anout 40-50% of new teachers change careers after just 3 years in my experience over my last 30 years of teaching. I do not know UK educational laws, but NCLB (No Child Left Behind) by Bush II, made it difficult for schools to hire unqualified teachers (not impossible, but difficult). In order to meet yearly Federal evaluations standards all schools must have certified staff in all positions. Failure to do so will negatively impact their evaluation, and therefore, the Federal monies that they recieve as a consequence of the evaluation. Furthermore, teachers must continue to advance there own education in their accreditation field. This usually means working towards an advanced degree beyond their bachelors. The majority of this happens contemporaneous with them teaching full time, and the teacher is responsible for paying for it, not the school district in most cases. Failure to comply and acquire further education negatively impacts their yearly step grade advancement and their salary scale.

More people are working, but not earning significantly more. The increase in jobs occurred in the lowest paying employment sectors. People are still working two and three jobs to make ends meet. If this economy is so good, why are so many in this position. Trump supporters talk about the increase in black employment. Sure they increased, but the bar for black employment was sooooo low coming into this Administration, that it took nothing to register a significant increase. Same with hispanic employment This economy is about a lack of quality employment, despite what the numbers suggest. A one time income tax increase will not offset the harm that the tax breaks will do to the national debt. The economic divide in this nation has never been so great.
