Parent involvement
Jeffery and its staff are fantastic. Very involved and caring. Glad our daughter is a student.
we haven't had a single problem with Jeffery. I'd hate to send my daughter anywhere else.
The principal needs to go(he has a major attitude). Mr. Pingatore was much better. Mrs. Warren,Mrs.Galusha & Miss Paulson they aree all wonderful teachers and people in general. This school so needs an up date. It looks so old and in need of paint,etc.
Navy family, our son attended here for the last few months of 4th grade and all of 5th grade. When toured the school the principle called each student we passed by name. It was a great school with wonderful teachers. My only reason for not giving it 5 stars is the student body could have been more welcoming to an outsider. For the most part they had all attended this school since kindergarten and didn't readily include a 'new kid'. Coming previously from schools with a large military population we were use to kids being more accepting then this. However with the move up to middle school in the same school district and everyone being the new kid that all changed and our son was accepted readily there.
Jeffery is an excellent school with outstanding teachers. We couldn't be happier there!

When does food really expire?
'When in doubt, throw it out.' While that sounds like a decidedly unscientific way to approach your groceries, it may be better than relying on the dates stamped on food.
This post comes from Brandon Ballenger at partner site Money Talks News.
No food stays fresh forever. No, not even Twinkies. (Honey comes close, though.)
Knowing the expiration date is important to avoid getting sick and wasting money. But figuring out how long food actually lasts can be confusing. Labels use various phrases to describe shelf life, like "sell by," "use by" and "best by." Others seem to have only a date, with no explanation of what it means.
In the video below, Money Talks News reporter Jim Robinson deciphers the food code with food safety expert Manny Delgado. Check it out, and then read on for more about the expiration of different foods.
The most surprising fact when it comes to food dating? With the exception of baby food and formula, the U.S. Department of Agriculture doesn't require dates at all, nor is there a uniform system for using them. From the USDA website:
There is no uniform or universally accepted system used for food dating in the United States. Although dating of some foods is required by more than 20 states, there are areas of the country where much of the food supply has some type of open date and other areas where almost no food is dated.
The most important thing when it comes to food dating is to trust your senses. If it looks, smells or tastes off, toss it. Poor storage and packaging defects can cause food to go bad before its time. Assuming the food is properly preserved, though, here's a quick primer on how to use dates:
That's how the dates work. But the USDA also has a convenient list of storage times, which is combined below with info Jim mentioned in the video.
Fresh or uncooked food in the fridge. Follow use-by date. For a sell-by date or no date, cook or freeze within this time frame:
- Hard cheese -- two to three months.
- Eggs -- three to five weeks.
- Yogurt -- three weeks.
- Soft cheese -- one week.
- Cured ham -- five to seven days.
- Beef, veal, pork, lamb -- three to five days.
- Milk -- three to five days.
- Poultry and ground meat -- one to two days.
- Variety meats (liver, tongue, etc.) -- one to two days.
- Sausage from pork, beef, or turkey -- one to two days.
Cooked or processed foods in the fridge. Follow use-by date. For a sell-by date or no date, cook or freeze within this time frame:
- Canned ham -- nine months unopened, three to four days after opening.
- Bacon or hot dogs -- two weeks unopened, seven days after opening.
- Luncheon meat -- two weeks unopened, three to five days after opening.
- Commercial sliced bread -- two weeks.
- Cooked ham -- one week unopened, one week after opening (three days if sliced).
- Cooked poultry or sausage -- three to four days unopened, three to four days after opening.
- Canned fruits and vegetables -- two to five years.
- High-acid foods (pickles, tomatoes) -- 12 to 18 months.
- Commercial sliced bread -- one week.
For more info on food handling and preparation, safety, and labeling, visit the USDA. In the meantime, do what you've always done: "Here, honey, smell this. Is it still good?"
More on Money Talks News and MSN Money:
Hate to tell you this, but the milk that almost reaches the sell by date and is still in the store is collected, re-pasteurized and then turned into chocolate milk.
Yo - MSNBC - stop the annoying video adds - I turn everyone off and do not watch so what is the point of having them - this is the internet, if I wanted TV I would watch it!!!!!!!!!!!

Women's History Month blog carnival
by Diane Dorce of Reading Writing Blogging
On being strong…..
The one accolade I hear most is….girl you are strong….you a strong, independent woman….you strong…but sometimes I don't want to be so strong. Sometimes I grow tired of carrying the mantle and other folks on my back, hiding emotion, pretending to have it all together….sometimes I just want to break down and cry, curl into a ball, and lie in the arms of somebody who is strong….not my arms. Being strong can sometimes be a curse, because when everyone else thinks you're strong, they never seem to think that you are in need of anything, compassion, sympathy, love, or joy….they think you got it all together, when in reality you are depleted of the one thing you need the most, strength. I wear the mask, indeed I do…but not for long, because while I need to be strong for others, I also need to be tender, to be childlike, to laugh for no reason, to cry for no reason, sing, to dance, to jump and tumble, to fall and pick myself up, to be appreciated for no reason, to be touched, and have all my boo-boos kissed, to be wrapped up in the warmest embrace of someone wanting nothing more, but to comfort me. I can't stop being strong, it's who I am, but I can take a sabbatical every now and then, and on that day, you'll see the real me…the sometimes shy, loving to laugh, loving to smile little girl, who since birth dreamed of worlds and adventures only she could imagine.

Musical Pieces:
Baba O'Riley
Genre: Rock
Composed and performed by: The Who
Released: 1971
You've probably heard this song on television or in the movies - it has that synthesizer sound at the beginning going up and down the scale really fast. And the guy sings the phrase "teenage wasteland" over and over again. Watch the video below to hear the song performed live by The Who.
The song was written by Pete Townshend, the main songwriter and guitarist for The Who. This English band actually wanted to create a science-fiction rock opera for their next album called "Lifehouse" - but they eventually abandoned this rock opera album concept. The song would have been sung by a Scottish farmer in the opera, who sings as he gathers his wife Sally and their two children to begin their exodus to London, which makes sense when you consider the lyrics:
Out here in the fields / I fight for my meals / I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight / To prove I'm right / I don't need to be forgiven
My kids ain't gonna break my heart / My greed ain't gonna spoil their part
This life just has to be a new one / I'm gonna tan underneath a new sun
Here's Pete Townshend's description of the rock opera:
"A self-sufficient drop-out family group farming in a remote part of Scotland decide to return South to investigate rumors of a subversive concert event that promises to shake and wake up apathetic, fearful British society. Ray is married to Sally, they hope to link up with their daughter Mary who has run away from home to attend the concert. They travel through the scarred wasteland of middle England in a motor caravan, running an air conditioner they hope will protect them from pollution."
Musical Influences for Baba O'Riley
One of the two main influences for this song was Meher Baba, The Who's spiritual guru. Meher Baba was an Indian mystic and a spiritual master. In 1925, at around the age of 31, he took a life-long vow of silence. He also declared in 1954 that he was the Avatar of the age. While he took his vow of silence, he communicated usually using an alphabet board or through unique hand gestures. He died in 1969, but caught the attention of the Who songwriter Pete Townshend. Pete Townshend was deeply influenced by his philosophies and carried them as a personal and artistic influence.
Pete Townshend wanted to input the life information of Meher Baba into a synthesizer, which could then generate music based on that information. A synthesizer is an instrument that can produce a ton of different sounds based on varying frequencies. In 1970, a popular synthesizer was the Minimoog and looked something like this:
A Minimoog synthesizer on the left and the Deluxe organ on the right
Pete didn't end up using that synthesizer music on the track, though - he instead played the sequence on his organ - a Lowrey Beckshire Deluxe TBO-1 organ using its repeated "marimba" sound feature. As you can see above, the organ looks like your typical organ.
The approach that Pete used for the synthesizer track was inspired by the work a famous minimialist composer named Terry Riley - the second main influence in this song. The approach is known as "modal", which is an ordered series of musical intervals, which is apparent the moment you begin hearing the track.
The names of both Terry Riley and Meher Baba was used to create the song title "Baba O'Riley" as a tribute to them.
Other musical decisions
Keith Moon, the drummer for the Who, inserted a violin solo at the coda of the song. Here, you can hear the style of the song shift from hard experimental rock to an Irish folk-style beat. It might seem a bit strange to include this sort of musical style, but considering that the song was originally intended for a rock opera where the Scottish farmer begins his move to London - it becomes clearer on why these artistic decisions were made. During concerts, the violin solo is sometimes replaced with the harmonica.
O'Riley's Impact on Musical History
Baba O'Riley a prime early example of experimentation with the synthesizer and other electronic music with traditional English rock. It is considered one of many songs which have shaped rock and roll history. Today, it's considered a "classic rock" song. You can hear it in movies like The Girl Next Door and Fever Pitch, television shows like the theme song for CSI: NY and in episodes of House - and even in video games like Rock Band. The repetitive electronica structure throughout the song makes for an interesting and certainly very recognizable riff.

I think you have a good idea. If Blizzard is serious about getting rid of gold farmers, it would be fairly simple (probably easier than the measures they're taking now) to just put them out of business by offering gold cheaper than the farmers can. Blizzard could do this easily because, as the developer, gold doesn't cost them anything at all. They don't have to pay anyone to farm it. If people want to buy it, Blizzard can just create it to meet the demand and probably make some money in the process.
The pros:
1. Increased revenue for Blizzard.
2. Reduced gold farming/spamming by third parties.
3. Availability of gold for the more casual player who has the RL money but not the time to farm.
The cons:
1. Economic inflation. As gold is more readily available from 'legal' sources, prices for items will go up.
2. Increased pressure to buy gold and decreased motivation to farm for some players who would not otherwise choose to buy gold.
Overall, I think the pros outweigh the cons. I liken it to the game Gauntlet, where you could plug in some extra quarters to buy yourself more life. It certainly wasn't necessary, you could do well without it. But it was a lot easier.

Open character:
Name: Riley Gillespie.
Age: 22.
Job: Bar tender.
Imprinted Name: Mieke Von Trapp.
Personality: Riley is an outspoken, fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants, free spirited kind of girl all rolled up into one feisty young woman's body. She likes to do what she wants to do when she wants to do it and she rarely lets anyone stand in the way of that. Some people say she's crazy, she just likes to think that she's too adventurous for some- most- people to handle or keep up with. The people who don't call her crazy say she was born into the wrong generation and that she needs to go back about 40 years.
Bio: Riley wasn't raised in the best part of town, but her parents did try and raise her the right way- she grew up listening to the sounds of the 60s and 70s, watching old films, and researching topics like the women's rights movement. This is where her outspokenness and free spirit began. She always knows what she wants to do, even if that means making a split-second decision and completely flying by the seat of her pants. She's that girl that you either love or you hate, there's no in between with her- she just hopes, deep down, that the person whose name is on her hand will be the former rather than the latter.
Open character:
Name: Reed Cohen
Age: 23.
Job: Photographer/Film maker.
Imprinted Name: Emery Masterson
Personality: Reed sees the world in a different light, mainly because he's looking at things from behind a camera majority of the time. He tries to see the good in things at all times. He's very open-minded, willing to take in other people's opinions before giving his own and possibly agreeing to disagree on the subject.
Bio: Reed was born into a pretty financially stable home- they weren't the richest of families, but they had more than enough to get by. His parents found early on that their son had an interest in films, he began pointing out different things such as the angles that looked really nice for a certain person, which is why they decided to buy him his own camera one year for his birthday. He takes his job seriously, so he's serious about how everything runs, but he tries to keep it pleasant on set. The only real time that it's difficult to be around Reed is when he begins drinking, this is when his personality turns to a harsher one, his voice rising in anger when something isn't done perfectly…
Open character:
Name: Lily-Mae Elcott.
Age: 21.
Job: College student/Librarian at Sonnie Hollow High.
Imprinted Name: Alex Middleton.
Personality: Lily-Mae is very sure of her abilities, but she doesn't like to throw it in people's faces. She was that girl who always had straight As in school, sat in the front row, and was always on the teachers' good side. She likes to keep herself busy either by reading novels on the side (which are all written in and highlighted by now) or going over her school work. She is very determined to go somewhere in life, she just isn't quite sure where that somewhere is yet.
Bio: Lily-Mae was a strong-willed, determined child, but she always managed to reign in those two features and focus them on one thing: her education. Part of the reason she is so determined about getting a good education is that her mother, who was around more than her father was, didn't finish high school before she got pregnant with Lily and dropped out. Lily doesn't want this for herself- she wants to be a strong, independent woman who can fend for herself until the time comes along for her to settle down. But, in this society, is that possible?
Open character:
Name: Jesse Halsted.
Age: 25.
Job: Mechanic.
Imprinted name: Evelyn Davis.
Personality: Jesse is a bit rough around the edges, especially when it comes to being around women. His dad wasn't around much to tell him how he'd won over his mom, so, Jesse picked up the language and facts from the guys in the garage where he'd later on pick up a job as a mechanic. He's not afraid to tell it like it is, even if that means hurting somebody's feelings. Everyone deserves the truth, right?
Bio: Jesse grew up in a family where they mainly lived paycheck to paycheck, he didn't mind, though, because he didn't need much. He declined offers of new toys or a bike from his parents, knowing that it would save them money and that he would just continue playing outside in the yard with the other boys who were around. He figures that's partly where his rough-and-tumble personality comes from, that and the fact that he grew up faster than he really should have, missing part of his childhood to begin learning the basics about cars and motorcycles, helping him into his future job.
Jesse met his match, Evelyn Davis, during his senior year in high school, when Evelyn was just a sophomore, and the two decided to wait until they'd both graduated and had steady jobs before getting married and starting a family. The only thing was, neither of them actually loved the other, and adding the stress of bringing a child into the world on top of that eventually tore the two apart.
Open character:
Name: Evelyn Davis-Halsted.
Age: 23.
Job: Waitress/Mom.
Imprinted name: Jesse Halsted.
Personality: Evelyn was brought up to be a proper lady, always being polite, soft-spoken, and staying a bit in the background. This changed, though, when she met her match, Jesse Halsted, a rough around the edges kind of guy who worked as a mechanic. She still holds onto certain qualities she was brought up with, like always saying excuse me, please, and thank you, but she's lost quite a bit of her soft-spoken side and picked up a roughened one instead.
Bio: Evelyn was mainly raised by her mom who stayed at home with her nearly at all times, teaching her to read and write as well as cook and sew- all the things she would need to know for her future, her mom taught her. She was on the wealthier side of the society, growing up in a large house with plenty of unused, unexplored spaces, and she grew accustomed to having people wait on her, to a certain extent, that is. She was taught the men open and hold the doors for women, so she would always wait for a man to open the door, but, again, that's something that changed after Jesse came along.
Evelyn and Jesse were married in 2009 when she was 20 and Jesse was 22. They now have a 2 year old son whom they share custody of as the two separated in late 2011 due to the stress of not actually loving each other yet having a new member of their household whom they each had a part in making. Now Evelyn must decide whether she wants to try and work her marriage with Jesse out or if she is will move on and defy the society's rules by finding another man to marry.
Candice Accola face claim wanted!
Welcome to Utopia, at least that's what the members of the society call it. Sonnie Hollow is a small-town society where members have a name imprinted on the palm of their left hand, and not just any name either… this name is the name of the person they are to be with forever, whether it be because they will truly love that person or because that person can provide what they need for a good future, they are destined to be with only them. But what happens when people attempt to break away from the norm and be with the person they actually love who just so happens to not have the same name as what's been imprinted into their skin?

Stylish Couples – Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson
I ran across a few pictures of Diane Kruger and Joshua Jackson on Pinterest the other day, and they looked so insanely stylish together, I went looking for more – just to see if they were always this insanely fashionable together. They are! Joining the ranks of Posh and Becks, Jay-Z and Beyonce, Tom and Gisele, and Brangelina, they are an utterly adorable under-the-radar couple. I mean, come on you guys – its Pacey!! I knew what a catch this one was back in the Dawson Creek days.
Check them out on the red carpet – always perfectly coordinated and complementary. She takes risks with her fashion and I love that about her. She owns it, which allows her to pull of looks that would look otherwise over the top. And I love his suits – tailored to perfection. He even manages to make them look good with sneakers. How adorable does he look in a bow-tie??
Even when they are laid-back and casual, they look like they consulted each other on their outfits before leaving the house. And not in a "we're wearing matching t-shirts" kind of way, but in a we're -just-that-in-sync and we-have-incredible-fashion-sense kind of way. How they manage to be that cute together and not in a sickening way, is beyond me. I just have one question…what is with the picnic basket for a purse, Diane?
I'm feeling inspired to start working on the boyfriend's outfits and mine too, of course.
What do you think about Josh and Diane's style?

Can I Prevent the Flu if I Have Heart Disease?
Both the American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology emphasize the importance of getting a flu shot if you have heart disease. According to the AHA, the best time to get a flu shot is October or November. If you didn't get a flu shot, you can still benefit by getting the influenza vaccine in January or even later. Flu season can begin as early as October and last through May, so make sure you're taking preventive steps throughout the entire season.
Be sure to ask for the flu shot, and not FluMist. Patients with heart disease should not receive the live, attenuated vaccine given as a nasal spray in FluMist. The live vaccine can cause influenza in some high-risk patients.
In addition to getting a flu shot, keep your hands clean to prevent flu. Thorough hand washing is vital to keep germs off your hands so you don't introduce them to your body through your mouth, nose, or eyes.
(For in-depth information, see WebMD's Flu Prevention Strategies.)
When Should I Call my Doctor if I Have Heart Disease and the Flu?
If you have heart disease and flu, talk to your doctor immediately. Your doctor may want you to come to the office for a consultation and tests. If you test positive for the flu virus, your doctor may recommend an antiviral drug, which can help decrease flu symptom intensity and how long the flu lasts if taken early in the illness.
For in-depth information, see WebMD's When To Call The Doctor About Flu.
Also, be sure to call your doctor any time during your illness if you have the following problems:
- Difficulty breathing
- Symptoms that don't improve or worsen after three to four days of illness
- After feeling a little better, developing signs of a more serious problem -- for instance, a sick-to-your-stomach feeling, vomiting, high fever, shaking chills, chest pain, or coughing with thick yellow-green mucus.
If your symptoms worsen, you may need urgent medical care. Call 911 for a health emergency. Do not hesitate to seek emergency medical care if you have heart disease and/or flu. It's far better to get a quick medical evaluation and treatment, if necessary, than to risk waiting to see if symptoms might resolve on their own.

Darling International Inc. (DAR) agreed to purchase Vion Holding N.V.'s Vion Ingredients business for about EUR1.6 billion ($2.17 billion) in cash, giving the food-industry services company new animal by-product lines and greater exposure to Europe.
Vion Ingredients creates ingredients for applications in pharmaceuticals, feed, pet food, fertilizer and bio-energy. Its global network of 58 facilities covers aspects of animal by-product processing through six brands involved in rendering, hides, proteins, fats and blood products and gelatin.
The business was formed in 1930 and is headquartered in Son en Breugel, the Netherlands. Vion Ingredients has about 5,700 employees and had revenue of about EUR1.6 billion and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of EUR200 million for fiscal year 2012.
"The combination of Vion Ingredients with Darling International will create the global leader in converting edible and inedible bio-nutrients streams into specialty products and ingredients for the food, feed, fuel, fertilizer and pharmaceutical industries," Darling Chief Executive Randall C. Stuewe said.
Darling helps remove kitchen waste such as cooking oils, inedible waste from large bakeries and snack food manufacturers and other by-products and makes finished products such as animal feeds, fats and oils from them. Its rendering services collect by-products from food processing chains and turn them into protein and hide products.
Vion Ingredients, its brands and geographies will continue to be led by CEO Dirk Kloosterboer. In addition to his current responsibilities, upon closing, he will be named chief operating officer of Darling and be appointed to Darling's board.
Darling plans to finance the deal through a combination of bank debt, public debt and equity, and expects the acquisition to be immediately beneficial to adjusted earnings per share.
Darling in August agreed to buy Rothsay, a division of Maple Leaf Foods Inc. (MFI.T, MLFNF), for about C$645 million ($611 million), expanding its capabilities in Canada.
Shares of Darling closed Friday at $20.33 and were inactive premarket. The stock is up 27% so far this year.

Innodyn's TwinPack To Debut at AirVenture
Osceola Mills, Pa.-based Innodyn will be showing off its latest turboprop engine–the TwinPack–later this month at EAA AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wis. Over the past several years the company has been quietly working on fuel-efficient, low-cost 200- to 300-shp turboprop aircraft powerplants with 5,000-hour TBOs. Building on this work, Innodyn has developed the 500-shp TwinPack, which combines two of its 250-shp turbines through a common gearbox. The two-engines-in-one powerplant is estimated to consume about 35 gph at full power, about the same as 500-shp versions of the venerable Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A. Innodyn said it will start delivering 185- to 250-shp turboprop engines–ranging in price from $26,000 to $34,500 each–to the experimental aircraft market later this year. The company has plans to certify the engines, and several established aircraft manufacturers are said to be interested in the small powerplants. More details about the TwinPack are expected to be released at AirVenture.

Ed Miliband will not be the next PM
by Francesca Preece / 20 Jun 2012 09:24
David Miliband has offered an olive branch to his former electoral sparring partner Ed by revealing that his brother could win the general election in 2015.
Who knew politicians had a sense of humour?
Perhaps David should replace Jimmy Carr, the new public enemy, on the 10 O'Clock Live after that classic gag.
Now I'm not much of a gambler but I don't think the odds would be very favourable
Live: David Cameron at Leveson
14 Jun 2012 09:35
David Cameron has finished giving evidence. The inquiry will return on Monday 25th June.
Summary of evidence today:
Cameron acknowledges that the any new regulatory system should be independent with statutory backing and must be easily accessible to more vulnerable victims.
Drawing on his experience at Carlton, Cameron says he recognises that both newspapers shouldn't have the same regulatory framework as television because they are both different.
David Cameron - 'our most conservative burger'?
by Caroline Crampton / 12 Jun 2012 11:30
When Barack Obama visited last year, David Cameron famously joined him at the grill to do the meat for a Downing Street barbeque.
But now, it seems, our PM has actually had a burger named after him by a restaurant in Split, Croatia.
Alongside 'the Charlie Sheen' and 'the Elvis Presley', the restaurant now features 'the David Cameron special' - a simple burger with lettuce and tomato that the menu claims
Tory MPs eye-up Cameron's post
by Amber Elliott / 06 Jun 2012 09:28
On Monday, prime minister David Cameron sat in the comfy seats for the Queen's Jubilee concert.
And while the royal box may have protected him from enthusiastic, rain-drenched flag-wavers, his parliamentary posterior is less sheltered.
As one MP put it to me: "He is approaching squeaky bum time."
While this might be overstating the point, I have encountered two MPs in recent weeks who have voiced their interest in standing in
Cameron's need to explain a vision for Britain
by Will Emkes / 30 May 2012 11:45
David Cameron recently gave a speech in Chicago where he spoke of 'reinventing government'. This Thatcher-like rhetoric is a sign of the PM's desperation to exercise leadership, and stay in control of both the party and country. Unlike Lady Thatcher, Cameron lacks an alternative vision for government and consequently such fiery speeches lack coherence. A year on from the emergency budget and spending review it is becoming abundantly clear that public opinion has slowly
Imagine if our MPs never 'chillaxed'

Cameron's early coalition plotting
by Amber Elliott / 21 May 2012 09:31
We've been under the impression that David Cameron first began to explore the idea of a coalition with the Lib Dems in those first few tentative days after 6 May 2010.
But a new book, Cameron: Practically a Conservative, suggests that Oliver Letwin, William Hague, Ed Llewellyn and George Osborne first met to discuss the idea as early as 18 April.
According to authors Francis Elliott and James Hanning, Cameron agreed to
Will the real David Cameron please step forward?
by Richard Darlington / 21 May 2012 09:02
Who is the real David Cameron? Is he the heir to Blair or to Thatcher? After two years in Downing Street, the true intentions of the prime minister remain a mystery. Is he a principled true believer or a power-hungry pragmatist? And is coalition the source of his strength or the cause of his weakness?
This dilemma is the topic of an extended essay in the new IPPR quarterly journal -
Cameron not for turning on the economy
by Tom Rollins / 17 May 2012 10:38
European politicians are apparently bracing for when – not if – the Greeks leave the euro.
It was up to the prime minister to re-draw the lines of debate on the economy, after alluding to the "make up…or breakup" position of the eurozone in yesterday's PMQs.
Speaking in Manchester this morning, Mr Cameron said: "Either Europe has a committed, stable, successful eurozone with an effective firewall, well
Secret courts could become another Cameron grievance
by Tom Rollins / 16 May 2012 15:46
David Cameron must take pains not to add to his list of grievances after David Davis set out his opposition to government proposals to introduce secret courts into British justice.
While Davis is defending a key principle in our legal system, there may be more here than meets the eye. Let's not forget, the Haltemprice and Howden MP is also a former contender for the top job in the Conservative Party.
Reshuffles fulfil our need for gossip but that is all
by Emma Burnell / 15 May 2012 11:55
It's reshuffle time again. Let joy in Westminster be uncontained. Rumours abound. Who's up? Who's down? Who's in, out or sideways?
For Labour questions include the unlikely Will this be a glorious leftist revolution? and the more likely Will it be steady as she goes? The coalition have more to worry about right now. Does Cameron have enough women in the Tory Party to move Theresa May, Cheryl Gillan, Baroness Warsi
Why the PM will be dreading Leveson this week
by Alexander Wickham / 10 May 2012 08:58
We have reached endgame. Over the next two days the Leveson Inquiry hears evidence from Andy Coulson and Rebekah Brooks, testimony that – if you believe an increasing number of commentators – could be hugely damaging to David Cameron.
Over the weekend the former editor of The Sun, Kelvin MacKenzie, revealed that he had placed a £1,000 bet on the prime minister to be gone by the end of the year. This

Man Slaps Stranger's Kid in Wal-Mart
Imagine this for a shopping nightmare: Your 2-year-old throws a tantrum at Wal-Mart, and a strange man walks up to her and slaps her across the face to shut her up.
Ronda Kaysen: This happened to a Georgia mom on Monday. Sonya Mathews' daughter, Paige, was crying in the store when 61-year-old Roger Stephens told Mathews that if she didn't make her kid stop crying, he would. When little Paige continued to cry, he walked up to her and slapped her across the face several times. After he did it, he told Mathews, "See, I told you I would shut her up."
Mathews screamed at him and called for security. Another shopper stopped him. He was arrested and charged with cruelty to a child, a felony, and is being held without bail. Paige suffered no injuries, except for some redness in the face. Of course, that says nothing of the psychological injuries she might have experienced.
Can you imagine this happening to your kid? I wonder how Mathews explained such a terrifying act of violence to a child so young. It sends chills down my mommy-spine.
|Ronda Kaysen is a freelance writer. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, Washington Post, BusinessWeek.com, Architectural Record, Huffington Post, New York Observer and AM New York. She lives in Brooklyn with her family.
I completely agree with Jeri C:
"I have kids and on the one time my daughter began screaming and crying at the store , many years ago when she was that age, we left the store. Why must others subject us to the tantrums of their kids? He should not have touched the child but the mother should have taken her outside to calm down and then returned to her shopping. Too many parent s nowadays , allow their kids to run wild, scream for ever, get into everything in the stores, get into people's way, etc. There is no discipline. It is like we are supposed to tolerate their children because they are "too busy" to deal with them. I can take my kids anywhere in public, including a restaurant, even when they were toddlers, because I taught them to behave and if they didn't…we went outside."
I have a 2 year old daughter and not only does she act like she has sense when we're out and about, I also do not let her out of my sight nor does she get the opportunity to run hog wild around any establishment. When my daughter gets overtired or cranky if necessary I will cut my trip short to keep from causing myself, her, and other further aggravation; if necessary, however the majority of the time we have a little one on one conversation with me looking her directly in the eyes and asking why she's acting out, how she's feeling, etc and me telling her that I understand and if she'd cooperate we'd be done in a minute and can go home or where ever else we need to go usually works.
Anyway, got off subject, while I by no means agree with what that man did and would probably have stomped his a** 6 ways from Sunday, I can say I relate to what he must have been feeling and the aggravation. Nothing is worse than watching people who seem to be totally oblivious to their ill manned little heathens; I'm talking running into you, knocking stuff down, screaming, crying, and all the while mommy is in her own world. My thing though is it doesn't make me want to slap the child to get them to quiet down, it makes me want to knock the sh*t out of the supposed parent(s). These are the formative years people and if you haven't taught your child(ren) right from wrong, manners, etc by now then you are the real reason to blame when later down the line they become murders, criminals, drop outs, gang bangers, drug dealers, and the like; hell what do you expect when you don't teach them any better? And no offense but as I said if you miss the formative years good luck, because by the time they have past it's hard trying to get someone to listen to you when they never did before, to show respect when they don't even know what it is, not to mention the older they get the bigger they get and you raise them not to care not to respect then watch out because when they get sick of listening to you or you make the mistake of thinking you can hit them or punish them in some way and you get to learn the hard way how it feels to be handled physically by your own child!!
Just remember that while it may be true that you cannot be fully blamed for the actions of others, that people learn by example, rules are made for a reason, and you can't expect everyone to raise your child for you especially if you're the type who if someone does try to discipline them you want to show your ignorance and try to start a confrontation with them.
Sorry for the long post I guess I just wanted to remind everyone of why America and the world in general is going to Hell in a Handbasket…..people forgot how to be role models and parents!!
Oh and for those so quick to jump to the defense of the mother and to make excuses for the child's behavior….just further supports why society is as screwed as it is now. In a previous post I mentioned that I myself have a 2 year old, and she knows how to act in public, she knows when mommy says behave or mommy says her first and middle name it's time to calm down…come on people it's not rocket science and 2 year old are not as dumb as you'd like to pretend!! But as I said in my previous post it's not at this age the child's fault the blame can pretty much be placed on the parents and other role models that are around the child, because at 2 children are still more like parrots they imitate what they see. So all these little banshees and heathens that seriously make me think twice about some people getting sterilized just need look at themselves for a place to place the blame, you taught your child this, you are passing this on for them to pass on, and trying to reason or lie to yourself about them only being 2, them crying because that's what they do, there's nothing you can do about it is just a bunch of bull to make yourself feel better!
-Remember children even as young as 2 are not idiots they know how to behave they know right from wrong if they've actually been around it.
-Yes, babies, toddlers, and small children will and are going to cry at some point when your in the store, that's a given, but why should the rest of us have to put up with it???
Oh and why should the people disturbed by the ruckus be the ones who should leave, isn't that a little backwards? When there is a disturbance of the
peace, the cops come and usually haul off the person causing the disturbance or at least get them to stop with it, so how is it any difference in this
case? Shouldn't the parent(s) with the crying, screaming, etc child(ren) be the one that should leave? Oh and please don't give me that bull about the
only time you have to go to the store or something else similar because I'm a divorced, working mother that can barely afford day care during the week so
I couldn't even imagine using a daycare just so I can do peaceful shopping, so I do what I can when I can. And before too many of you leave in a
huff,chew on this; while it was a little hypocritical to say that others should leave versus the source of the problem, I don't only say that because in
all actuality it is the decent fair thing, but because if a guy has already went up and slapped a 2 year old what do you think some other lunatic might
do, hell they do a lot more for less severe things these days!!?
Just a thought.

The man was wrong, plain and simple. He didn't discipline the little girl, he attacked her. He didn't swat her on the bottom or get stern with her, he slapped her in the face several times. No matter what was going on with the little girl, whether she was tired, upset because mommy wouldn't buy her a toy, hungry, or just didn't want to be at the store, that man should have NEVER touched her.
The thing to do in a situation such as this is to leave your cart, abandon the shopping trip and remove the child from the store. We would give our kids fair verbal warning to stop the tantrum and if they did not comply, we would leave. If both my husband and I were present, one could finish the shopping, but any time we took any one of our three kids out to run errands, we did so with the knowledge it might end at any time - and yes - we had to abandon ship more than once - but it did not take many times before the message was heard loud and clear. The saying (that a childs crying) "bothers you more than it does everyone else," is BS. I love my children tremendously, but I DO NOT want to hear ANY child's screaming fit when I am out! And I do think parents are becoming increasingly afraid of their own kids, and therefore are unwilling to discipline appropriately; hence the awful behavior.
That said, if any person touches my child without permission, s/he will draw back a nub!!! That man should be jailed for a month of weekends, fined and ordered to attend anger management classes, at a minimum.
Parents have to take responsibility for their own children. My children didn't act like that in public, they knew better. They are all grown up and seem to be doing just fine…tramatic, maybe, but blame the parent not the child.
keep the kid quit or take it outside dont want to here it whether at wal martor on a plane
lots people dont like whinney kids i love kids but my son would have never acted like that he was well behaved an yes he got his little back side spanked an hes grown into a well behaved grown man kids need to learn manners which i dont see alot of any more an yes you can teach them at an early age an yes your little girl will get worse as she gets older do yourself a favor an spanked her butt once an awhile it will sure save yourself alot of screaming latter
why should you leave the store then your giving them the upper hand no way an hell would i have left i would have spanke him an kept shoping an believe me he would not have pull that crap anymore why are you parents so scared of your kids grow up an spanked them once an awhile
I'm shocked at people saying the mother should have had control of her kid's crying. The child is 2 years old. There is no *controlling* the cries of a bored 2 year old in WalMart. That is why it's called the TERRIBLE TWO's! All kids have different temperaments. Just because one kid doesn't act like that doesn't mean all kids have that capacity.
I will tell you now, the only fault I find with the mom is that SHE isn't in jail for beating the crap outta this old guy. He'd have been BLOODY by the time the cops came for him had that been MY kid. When he came up with the "warning" … he woulda got two words: TRY ME.
People, seriously? The child was reported as CRYING, not throwing a bratty hissy fit. Plus the man followed the mom into another aisle before slapping the toddler. He also apologized to the mom and God bless her, she forgave him (more than I could do especially since I'd have been arrested for hospitalizing him). Remember, what he did was physically abuse a small child which is ILLEGAL which is WHY he got, um, I dunno…ARRESTED! Read the report, watch the video, get the facts and stop twisting this story out of proportion and into some unruly child knocking people down or kicking them in the shins..
Besides, if the toddler was throwing a tantrum, what of it? It's irritating. No one wants to hear it but that's life. MOVE ON. Deal with it. We're talking about small children still learning social skills. News flash: Kids misbehave for even the strictest parents. Tell me that's not true and I'll call you what you are: a liar. I'M a strict parent and it happens. Family members threaten their kids with me to get their kids to behave, so no, I don't tolerate brattiness. But it happens to ALL parents. Those complaining were once pushing it with their parents or grandparents. I guarantee everyone here has thrown at least one public tantrum. I threw more than my share despite the strict upbringing (I was stubborn and defiant). It's what kids do. Get over it.
Does that mean we can slap all you annoyingly ignorant people we come across in the stores when you're being obnoxious? Why are we limiting scolding bad behavior just to children? I see waaaaaaaay more obnoxious adults who disgust me. Most kids I see aren't screaming through the aisles like banshees. So relax with the melodrama. Society will somehow manage to survive this generation of unruly heathens even though they're not *gasp* being beaten or belittled for acting like what they are…children. What excuse do the adults have for acting that way?
This situation only proves that Hillbillies are everywhere, and there is little that we can do to stop it – and they get a lot of press. In addition for the information given above, Roger Stephens, 61, was in line at a Wal Mart and in front of him was a woman with a crying 2 year old. He informed the woman that if she did not quiet said child, he would do so. Well he did, grabbing the kid and smacking her. He was arrested and booked. We've all though about it, but he did it – and the reason why we only THINK about doing such things is that they are wrong. Still, the person involved in the Man Slaps Child in Wal Mart incident will need instant cash for a lawyer and bail, because he's up for a felony.
I think parents let their kids be too annoying everywhere! ESpecially anywhere, like movies, church, LIBRARY where people are trying to concentrate and work. They have only an hour on the computers and should NOT have to listen to all that NOISE and thoughtless parents. If they act like this in public, imagine how they are at home.
If my grandkids acted like that (or my children when they were young) they were taken back home. How many times have you heard parents in the store say"if you do tht again, you won't get your toy or candy". 20 minutes later the child is still acting up, hitting, and being rude to other customers. Some parents are just too lazy to teach their children how to act, from young up. I agree it was not the man's place to do what he did, but some times buttons get pushed too far. It used to be in the libraries, that silence was the only thing accepted. Not now!!!! In an AZ. library, a patron told the mother to please stop her child from running around and yelling for over 30 minutes. 7 people went up and complained about the noise as they were trying to have their quiet time on the computer. Do you know what the answer was? "Well, we want to library to be kid friendly". Yeah!!! Anyway, I am so proud of the way our little grandchildren have been taught to act in public and at home. No, they didn't need slapping or spanking to do it either. I had a similar experience in Walmart last week, and the mother didn't care how much we all stared at her after awhile.
Wow really? I'm sorry but if some strange guy walked up to me and said shut her up or I will I would take my kid out to the car and just leave (after I gave the man a tounge lashing he would not soon forget!!!) But to slap a child? Your kid or not slapping kids across the face is just WORNG. and YES i agree with the psychological issues to. My mom slapped me ONCE and I'll be damned if I ever forgot it.
Slapping a baby? That gives the mom a freebie. She could beat the stranger with a baseball bat and no jury will touch her.
if he walked up to a grown woman in the store because she was talking to loud and slapped her across the face five times this would be assault. child endangerment?? no .. this is assault and anyone who thinks this is an ok thing to do just because it was a child needs to be assaulted in public themselves so they can have a clearer perspective on this.
Kids are kids- they get tired or whatever and cry sometimes. An adult should know better than to lay a hand on a child he doesn't even know. Discipline is a parent's responsibility. Too bad she wasn't on the pickle jar isle where she could have knocked him upside his bitter old head!
