Official figures from the Indian embassy have revealed that a total of 89 Indian workers have died in Qatar [2] while preparing the venues for 2022 World cup [3], in the first four months of 2014.
Death toll of Indian labors has risen to 567 from January 2012.
According to Gulf news, Migrant workers are still dying at a rate of one person a day, raising pressure on Qatar to improve the conditions for its 1.4 million laborers.
It is also recorded that a total of 53 Nepalese workers have also died in the same period.
Analysis of previous death figures has shown that a high proportion were involved in workplace accidents or suffered sudden heart failure, the report added.
Meanwhile, The minister of labour and social affairs, Abdullah Saleh Mubarak Al Khulaifi said that the ministry is making every effort to tackle all laws that relate to workers' issues. (ANI [4])

Just come back from Longleat, don't know about Sherwood but could not get anywhere to eat on our first day, got turned away from empty restaurants because we did not book. Did not appreciate being told off like a 10 year old for not booking and was told to sit in the naughty corner, more!! no food for you today Oliver.
Seems you have to set a school like timetable for all your meals for the week ahead and then watch the clock, miss your alotted time and you lose your deposit of £5 per head.
Shame, rest of Centre Parcs is great, but this makes it no leisure or pleasure. Gone home to do 100 lines "I will not go again"

I think I'm a fun & intelligent person who is easy to get along with. I'm always looking for new adventures and would like to to find a partner in crime. Particularly someone who can get lost in the moment without getting lost in life..
I love music. I go to 20-30 shows a year, including a few festivals. Im into all sorts of music like indie rock, electro/edm, punk/new wave, hip hop, grunge, folk, jam bands and even bluegrass...I listen to everything (not so much country...) and really appreciate originallity and live organic performances.
I love film. I used to make films frequently with my best friend who is now a proffessional, so now I try to help with the writing or production of his films when I have the time. I really like comedies and deep, thought provoking films.
I freakin love cooking! ..and I love to whip anyone a special meal to show off my culinary skillz. I love exploring new foods and will eat anything while trying to stay generally healthy and avoid processed foods. I try to keep my meat intake to a minimum and buy free range. Eating good=feeling good.
I like to read and watch some TV but I cannot find time to do either anymore :(

Obama: GAO Report Shows Iraq's Leaders Not Achieving Political Benchmarks
U.S. Senator Barack Obama (D-IL) today released the following statement in response to the Government Accountability Office (GAO) report, which concludes the Iraqi government has not met most of the security and economic benchmarks set by Congress:
"The GAO report confirms that Iraq's leaders are not achieving the political reconciliation that was the stated purpose of the surge. There is no military solution to Iraq's civil war. It's time for President Bush to stop searching for new justifications to continue the wrong policy. It's time to make the future of Iraq the responsibility of Iraq's leaders, and to stop making excuses for the Iraqi government's failure to meet critical benchmarks. It's time to surge our diplomacy and our efforts to deal with Iraq's humanitarian crisis. It's time to begin to bring our troops home so that we can relieve a strain on our military that endangers our national security. It's time to end a war that should never have been authorized."

The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we find that the growth in the company's net income has been quite unimpressive. You can view the full Harvest Natural Ratings Report.

Transcript: The theaters, they have closed, and so I am alone. This life, without the stage, it has always been for me... drudgery. My isolation is my own doing, this I know, but I am made this way, a creature of detachment. But possibly I can remake myself. With ADAM, maybe I can live like the others... in ignorance, yes, but no longer alone.

In Indiana, nearly 200,000 households out of 1 million eligible, low-income households received home energy bill assistance for the 2009 through 2010 winter season. Federally funded, but state-run through Indiana's Housing and Community Development Authority, the Energy Assistance Program provides winter heating bill assistance to low income households across the state on a first-come, first served basis.
Statewide Funding
Indiana residents will receive 117.6 million in federal energy assistance funding for the 2010 through 2011 winter season, down from 103.7 million in 2009, and 67.6 million in 2008. Nationally, the country will receive 5.1 billion in energy assistance in 2010, which is equal to 2009's allocation, but nearly double 2008's total funding of 2.57 billion.
Grant Allocation
The Indiana Energy Program provides financial grants directly to the household's home heating and energy provider, such as propane, electric, coal or heating oil companies. State-wide funding, which is run by the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority, is distributed at the county level by Community Action Agencies.
Income is the number one eligibility factor for the Indiana Energy Assistance Program. In order to be eligible, the combined income for every household member in the home must not exceed 150 percent of the federal poverty level. For a chart of all maximum income limits by family size, please see Resources below.
Eligible households may apply for the Indiana Energy Assistance Program by calling or visiting their local Community Action Agency, or CAA. For a list of CAAs by city, including phone number, website and mailing address contact information, see Resources. Applications may be sent by mail or brought into the local CAA in person.
If your household does not meet the income requirements for home heating bill assistance, you may still qualify for the Weatherization Assistance Program, or WAP. Funded by the Indiana Energy Assistance Program, WAP assists with home insulation, furnace or heater repair, and door and window sealing, which will help your household save on energy costs throughout the winter.

|Mike Mentzer
The Wikipedia page says: "Mentzer was an Objectivist and insisted that philosophy and bodybuilding are one and the same. He said: "Man, is an indivisible entity, an integrated unit of mind and body." Thus, his books contain as much philosophy as they do bodybuilding information." Mentzer, the author of four books and several articles, describes Ayn Rand's philosophy of Objectivism as the best philosophy ever devised.
Dr. Chris Matthew Sciabarra's The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies carried an interesting article on Mentzer, "Integrating Mind and Body," authored by Matthew Stoloff, in 2004. According to Stoloff, in his writings Mentzer has emphasized the value of thinking and the necessity of philosophy in bodybuilding and in life.
Several quotes from Mentzer's books and articles are included in the seven-page article. I find this quote from Mentzer particularly interesting:
"Take the time to consider some of the of deeper implications of the fact that man is an integrated unit of matter and consciousness, a being of mind and body. Take the time to learn something about the nature of thought and the importance of logic. Learn to read critically i.,e.,seeking to distinguish between truth and falsehood. Don't make the same mistake I did in my late teens and early twenties—don't assume that simply because something is printed that it has to be true."
I haven't read Mentzer's Heavy Duty: Mind and Body, but Stoloff provides a glimpse into the general flavor of the book's ideas. Here's an excerpt:
"Mentzer's most advanced writing can be found in Heavy Duty: Mind and Body. Such chapter headings as "The Mind: Check Your Premises" and "Nature, To Be Commanded, Must Be Obeyed" illustrate how much influence Objectivism had on Mentzer. The philosophical and theoretical principles Mentzer expounds in Mind and Body are unlike those in any other bodybuilding book. Body building treatises do not discuss philosophy as a matter of course, but Mentzer (1996, 24-25) makes no apologies: "If you're thinking this treatise is too intellectual, too professorial, and has no place in a bodybuilding book, check your premises. Bodybuilding does not exist in a vacuum, apart from the rest of life." It is interesting to note that of the seven chapters in Mind and Body, three are exclusively on philosophy with no reference to specific exercises or training regimen. Mentzer does this for a reason; he tries to establish a foundation and argues that there is a Law of Identity and Law of Causality as regards medicine the human body, and exercise science."
I like the movies of the famous bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger but I dislike his political views. The seemingly tough Schwarzenegger is intellectually weak and politically correct—he sides with the irrational liberals on issues like environmentalism, income equality, and egalitarian foreign policy.
It is heartening to know that the field of bodybuilding is not an exclusive liberal club. There are bodybuilders like Mike Mentzer who have rational philosophical and political ideas.

Tommy's Edinburgh research centre is taking part in the STOPPIT-2 trial: a national study looking at whether the Arabin pessary can stop premature birth in women pregnant with twins. In 2016, we had the best ever month for recruitment to the trial!
Women with a twin pregnancy are at a higher risk of going into early labour. The Arabin pessary is a small, cone-shaped device that is inserted through the vagina and surrounds the cervix, giving it support. This helps to keep the baby in the womb.
A large randomised trial has suggested that the pessary can reduce premature birth in women pregnant with one baby. Recently, a Dutch study has indicated that it may also work for twin pregnancies.
The STOPPIT-2 trial aims to find out for sure whether the Arabin pessary can help prevent premature birth of twins. Women with a twin pregnancy whose cervix is shorter than 35mm will be chosen at random to either receive the pessary, or standard treatment. The length of the cervix is important: if it gets too short, the risk of premature birth increases.
The pessary is cheap and easy to use, and if effective will have major health benefits across the world.
Professor Jane Norman, Professor Sarah Cunningham-BurleyHide details
This study takes place in a Tommy's centre and is funded by the National Institute for Health Research's Health Technology Assessment programmeHide details

For the past year and a half I have been writing this site and when I started I did what I usually do jump in with both feet. I quickly joined a few networking sites one of which was The Secret is in the Sauce or for short The Sits Girls. If any of you don' know about the site you should hop over and meet some great women there. It is headed up by a fabulous and I must say "beautiful" woman named Tiffany.
Anyhow, last year Tiffany started hosting what she calls "Bloggy Boot Camps" all over the country. The first was in Vegas which I almost had my husband convinced to let me go to but we had just returned from Vegas sooo not such good timing. Then there was one in Baltimore however it was sold out in what seemed like minutes sooo in January I think it was when I saw that in September the Sits girls Bloggy Boot Camp would be hitting the Philadelphia area I jumped and quickly signed up to go.
Who did I know? No one! And yes I was a bit nervous but I figured these gals are people just like me with a "story" to tell, and well, how bad could it be… Come on how many times did I go to something where I didn't know a soul? In my life hmmm many, so what the heck… I was excited because I wanted to learn more about Social Media and SEO and how to improve my sites. I had lots of questions in my head and was looking for lots of answers.
Tiffany is quite organized, well she has this down pretty good, I will mention in her "other life" she and her family run a camp, so this is second nature to her. Even before we got there she had started a twitter group for the Philly Boot Camp as well as just twittering out tweets with #Bloggybootcamp so one could connect with others. About a week before "camp" I used the hash tag a few times and saw tweets about "fashion" and "shoes" and what to pack and bring… I thought "O, crap I have nothing to wear" just like every woman does… But I packed and on Friday September 10th I was on Amtrak heading to Philly not knowing a soul looking for lots of answers.
I think I must have been the first one there, figures! I tweeted and a few hours later found out that a group was meeting down in the bar. Of course in the bar, give mom's a few days out and woot woot it's party time. LOL At first I seemed to be sitting amongst a group who already knew each other from the Baltimore Boot Camp and I did feel a bit like a kid who was at someone's birthday party where they knew no one but that feeling quickly melted away as each new face came in asking "Is this Bloggy Boot Camp?" There were introductions and everyone asked what is your twitter handle or your site's name since that is the way people here would "know" each other. And it was really great to put a face with "words" so to speak. Tiffany came around the table which grew from one table to about five quickly and introduced herself; of course everyone knew who she was from the site. And again after being part of the sits girls for a year and a half and diligently going to roll call every day I did feel like I was "home" in away. We all enjoyed a great dinner and all had lots and lots to chat about.
Saturday was "the main event" And as I said Tiffany has this down to science. She had several great speakers who inspired us, informed us and entertained us! We moved around the room after every few speakers so we really got to know a lot of the ladies who were there, O wait there was one man Ted who was in this vat of estrogen. I wonder if he felt out of place at all. Hmmm, nope don't think so, he jumped in and chatted with everyone about his project and gave a great session too.
When the day was over I was pooped with a capital P! Of course both my computer and phone died while I was tweeting and taking notes so the good old handwritten notes now need to be looked over.
I noticed a group heading out to dinner and asked if they minded if I join in, and of course the answer was "of course you can come!" Little did I realize it was the Philly Social Media group, which is filled with a bunch of the nicest women! So if you are a Philly woman I would reach out to these girls!!
After dinner there was a little cocktail party which was lovely, and a wonderful way to wind down the day.
Me and "the beautiful" Tiffany, of course we are looking at 2 different cameras
I'm only sorry that I didn't take as many pictures as I could have… That is my one regret! Especially after Laura, aka Lolli's wonderful photography presentation! I need to practice my photography. She had some wonderful tips which I will be going back and reviewing!
On my way home I thought I better have my answers ready for my husband. I knew what his questions would be…. Was it worth it? What did you "learn?" And when do I have to worry about you wanting to "go" again!" LOL
My answers, Yes! It was so worth it! I learned so much that I invite you to come and join me the next time I hit up Bloggy Boot Camp, O Yes, I will be back, as I tweeted out to a few new "friends" this morning who I didn't get a chance to say "good bye to" well, it's not good bye it's really just "ta ta for now!"
And PS fashion mehhhh everyone was "comfy!"

About the Creator
A music fan, a photography hobbyist, a husband, and soon to be father, I have a lot of irons in the fire! Just completed my second photo book, about Mike's Music in Stirling, NJ. The first, 'The Majesty of The George Washington Bridge' was completed last year, and was a result of a great photo class I took, in Hoboken, NJ, 'Beyond the Photograph' taught by Craig Dale. My second photo book was the final project in his second photo class, which concentrated on portrait photography.

Young people wear bracelets that say "WWJD" - what would Jesus do? I propose a new award, that will be bestowed at this blog as needed, the What Pope Francis Meant To Say award. It shall go to those people who take this plain-speaking pope's words, which really stand on their own and do not need much in the way of explication, and try and contort them to fit an agenda that is plainly not the pope's. And the first winner of the WPFMTS award is.....drumroll.....Kathryn Jean Lopez. In her analysis of Pope Francis' interview, published at National Review Online, she writes, "That's very much the Evangelical Catholicism George Weigel talks about, using that same Emmaus-road image, by my quick read." Of course, Mr. Weigel has long championed the kind of culture war approach to evangelization that Pope Francis is explicitly distancing himself from. Mr. Weigel, you will recall, penned an item for the Wall Street Journal before the conclave that was titled, "The New Pope Should Be a Culture Warrior." And, Mr. Weigel's book "Evangelical Catholicism" suffers from a deficient understanding of Catholic ecclesiology, precisely along the fault lines of sacramentality that so obviously are at the heart of the new pope's vision, as John Cavadini has so brilliantly demonstrated in his review of Weigel's book, at First Things. Ms. Lopez may read Francis and hear Weigel, and think the rest of us should use her particular set of earphones. I think not and award her the first WPFMTS award.

Big Story
Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'PC' started by WTCC, Feb 7, 2013.
I am not overclocking and my Budget is $2000
I would look for a 2 x 8GB memory kit.. that seems a little pricey.
Likewise the P/S seems a little expensive. I would think a 650w unit from a decent manufacturer would suffice.
I would drop one of your optical drives and invest the difference in an i5 3570K
Three monitors? Like a boss....
Much better build IMO for less money after rebates.
I am Quebus and I endorse this message...
I Dont know much about intels stock coolers, But Im sure you would want to add an aftermarket to cut back on noise! Other than that, it looks clean!
At stock speeds they aren't loud. I usually stick a Coolermaster 212 EVO on my builds. It's <$30 and kicks ass.
I wish I had 2000 dollars to spend on a pc.
you might as well get the i7 if you're going to spend that much
Updated: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/CcG1
Looks good. Can you find an OEM copy of Windows? That should be around $100.
Why not get 3 monitors that are the same? Why water cool a cpu you're not going to overclock? What's with the shitty mouse? Why not buy oem Windows?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using Tapatalk HD
Im going to get OEM and i don't need anything special for the mouse and I want a bigger monitor in the middle
Finial Build with OEM Windows: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Cdvg
Why the good keyboard, and then a throw away mouse?
cheaper mouse
very well, I would recommend a good mouse for a gaming pc, even over a good keyboard. Suppose you could always upgrade in the future, but when it comes to gaming, a mouse with good dpi and no latency is more beneficial.
SSD drive a must if you like RPGS or anything with long load screens my rig cost me £1500 but it is a waste of money you should consider vavles piston console
Amazing rig
Why do you want 1 monitor bigger than the others? Don't you want to game in surround? Your build confuses me...
Same Monitors: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/Cgts
FINAL BUILD Larger Monitors: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/CgvI
Makes more sense. I'd definitely add an SSD for the OS and get a better mouse.

One of the less silly-sounding criticisms made of popular atheists is that we don't deal with the best arguments for religion out there. That criticism was one of the main reasons Michael Ruse gave, in his review of The God Delusion in the academic journal Isis, for claiming the quality of popular atheist writing is "downright awful." Similarly, the New York [Read More…]
The strange case of Chris Mooney
It isn't just pointing out the ugly side of holy books that will have people saying how rude you are. Unfortunately, some people will call you rude for literally any criticism at all of religion. It's hard to believe, I know, but if you've read chapter 1 I hope you won't find it too surprising. [Read more…]
Daring to state the obvious: the dark side of sacred scripture
The following is a draft excerpt from chapter 3 of my forthcoming book, Angry Atheists?: Why the Backlash Against Dawkins, Harris, And the Rest Is Silly. One of the clearest examples of religious privilege is this: no one would think it rude to describe an overt racist or tract as "hate-filled." That's just being accurate. [Read More…]
The Big Bad Dawkins Quote
It occurred to me that I could spin off small sections from the book I'm writing into blog posts. Giving people 6,000 words to read at once is kind of a burden, so it's really in my interest to break things down into more digestible pieces. Also, in this particular case, taken from chapter 2, [Read More…]
Moral theory isn't as helpful as many people think

Ballroom dance instruction
Dance for Fun. Dance for Fitness. Dance for Life.
Learn to dance for special occasions such as reunions, military balls and weddings.
1) Men can take private lessons - dancing with me, their instructor.
2) Couples can take lessons together (no additional charge for a second person)
3) One-time special events can also be arranged such as for birthday parties, reunions or business functions. (Special pricing applies to these events based on location, number of people and time commitment.)
Check out my website for more details.
Training & Qualifications
I have 28 years experience as a ballroom dance instructor. I am a retired professional U.S. Champion and have performed around the world. I also create one-of-a-kind dance and skate costumes.
Each 55-minute lesson is tailored to your specific experience level, which dance you wish to learn as well as how proficient you with to be.
More more details, please visit: http://seamssensational.com/dance-instruction/
Availability & Preferences
I'm very flexible with my teaching schedule. Weekend and evenings are the most common times for people, but often teach at 9AM.
The studio I teach at is close-in Beaverton, inside Cedar Hills Crossing (near Powell's Books, the Mac Store & Best Buy): 3205 SW Cedar Hills Blvd., Beaverton, OR 97005
I have to pay real money ($15 an hour floor fee) for each hour I teach. It's ideal if you pay $15 real dollars and we trade $60 simbi.
However, if you really, really want dance lessons and paying $15 each hour is absolutely not in the budget, we can perhaps work out a negotiation with increased simbi instead.

About Teresa Sigmon
BALLROOM DANCE INSTRUCTOR: U.S. Champion with 28 years experience. Teaching is fantastic! I love figuring out how a student best learns so I can explain steps and techniques in a communication s...tyle they'll understand so they progress more quickly. http://seamssensational.com/dance-instruction/ Founder of SEAMS SENSATIONAL - crafting custom ballroom, Latin, Country-Western and skate costumes since 1993. I began my custom dressmaking company, Seams Sensational, in 1993. I create costumes for clients around the world in all dance styles, from beginning students to U.S. Champions. As time passed, I realized that making dresses is about much more than fabric and rhinestones; it's about helping women look and feel beautiful so they are happier, more confident and empowered by their choices and their femininity. http://www.seamssensational.com Creator of the SEW LIKE A PRO™ training series - teaching dancers and skaters to make their own professional quality costumes. This is my latest - and by far the best - venture I've created to date! Dancers and skaters around the world struggle with making their own costumes because until now, there is almost no training available. http://www.seamssensational.com/blog_n_tips/ Founder of BODYCELEBRATE - mentoring women to discover who they are, who they want to be and how to bridge the gap®. I chose to put this company on the back burner for a few years to focus on the sewing school (which came to me AFTER I had begun this company.) To date, the best part of this business is that I volunteer taught the signature program over five weeks at the local women's prison. That was an awesome experience! http://www.bodycelebrate.com At the moment, I work a ridiculous amount because I teach dance lessons, make dance/skate costumes AND I'm in the final stages of completing my best work yet -- an online sewing school teaching dancers & skaters how to make their own professional quality costumes. However, when I'm not working, I love hiking, kayaking, traveling, animals, archery, my family and friends. Spontaneity, honesty, laughter and being outdoors feeds my soul. In 2000, my mom and I began taking an annual trip together. It's a blast! I love volunteering with local, state and federal agencies to help improve the world in which we live. I've pulled invasive weeds and picked up trash. I have rescued or fostered twenty-six cats and three dogs. show moreOpen to other proposals

NCLB Stories: North Carolina
"The most important learning can never be measured quantitatively over the span of three days in the life of a person.
"Though the intent of the NCLB legislation is to close the achievement gap, the effect it is having on schools and on the delivery of educational services to students by teachers has been chilling. The love of learning and the joy of teaching have been adversely affected.
"Since the passage of the NCLB legislation, I have seen the focus of education change more drastically than I thought it ever could. We, the teachers, educate students because we have such a passionate love of and joy for learning that we want to share this joy with every person we meet. Teaching's gratification has never been in the indecent salaries that we make; it has been in the desire to be molders of dreams, lighters of fires, and lenses of hope and possibility through which people without hope can dare to dream, hope, and believe in the possibility of a better life for themselves and for their families.
"Teachers know intuitively that touching the life of a child through education means touching eternity. When people love to touch eternity through tangible means, they will use means to do so. This is what I, and millions of others, have done through teaching.
"The NCLB legislation has so narrowed the focus of what is important in education that it undermines the very foundation on which education in this country was built. The designation of specific areas for testing in order to measure adequate yearly progress has diminished the attention given to other parts of the curriculum. Just as psychologists and health professionals tell us that we must lead a balanced life, it is reasonable to expect that the beginning of balance must be taught through a balanced curriculum.
"A balanced curriculum does not consist of just reading and math, or get created by adding specific subjects at denoted times along the timeline of full implementation of the NCLB legislation. All subjects must be relevant and important, and all subjects must be taught well.
"Students are people. People grow and develop at different rates. How can a body of legislators set the rate for growth? If there are identified points of inequity in the formulation and/or the delivery of educational services, those points need to be identified and addressed expediently, without apology. To choose certain areas for which students and teachers are held accountable by the federal government has meant that the tested areas have become the taught areas.
"There is so much more to life than reading and math. There is so much more to students than how well they perform on a test. I continue to tell my students that no matter how they perform on a test, I will still love them, their parents will still love them, their families will still love them, and the sun will still rise tomorrow morning. The birds will still sing, the sky will still be blue on some days and cloudy on others. I tell them that they will still grow up to enjoy life, contribute to their community, and instill in their children the love of learning.
"At times like these, I have to do what the psalmist David said to do: I have to encourage my own heart as I encourage the hearts of students tempted to feel worthless based on the results of a test. I will do whatever it takes to help each student under my influence to realize that their meaning and worth can never be measured by quantitative data.
"The NCLB legislation has the potential to take the joy out of teaching and learning and, indeed, has done so for many. It will not happen to students under my watch. The problem with the legislation can be summed up in the words of a student who sincerely asked the teacher, 'If it is not on the test, then why do we need to learn it?'
"This is the damage that the NCLB legislation has done, and this damage must be stopped."

"I will be laid off from my job due to this. I have worked for 28 years and now my kids will have no food because I am a single mom. I have great evaluations. I have the knowledge to help students. I do not need a degree, and I will make no more money doing this. This is not justice. We are paid below the poverty level, so how can I get a degree?
"I can barely pay my bills now with what I make after having worked for 28 years for the state, and now I will be laid off on June 28. What are my rights??? I have always worked. This is just so unfair to people like us who do not make any money from the start. We are there because we love students. I only have two more years and I can retire. I need help. I need my job. This has caused me to have high blood pressure.
"We were in a Title I school when this took place. We need your help immediately. I guess Bush does not care if my kids eat or not. This has caused so much poverty and how has it helped students??
"We need your assistance in Durham immediately. We will be laid off. We have had no help with anything except the school paid one time for the test, but the test does not have anything to do with what I do in a classroom. Please help us. Send this to Bush. He eats every day and my kids need to eat also."

"Working with the students in my school makes it very clear to me that the ability levels of students are not the same. I also teach in the after school ALP program, and this program also makes it clear that the ability and comprehension levels of students vary.
"To have students take a test, regardless of their academic abilities or comprehension levels, and expect them to all score the same is unfair and unreasonable.
"I see students who are frustrated with information that they have difficulty understanding. Some of them work hard to accomplish as much as they can, and some just give up. We are losing students who are overwhelmed by the testing that they must endure. Is it fair? Does a test accurately and honestly reflect the work that a student has done over the course of a year? Would anyone, a child or an adult, feel that one evaluation is a true reflection of what that person has learned and retained?
"This needs to be changed so that we do not lose more of our children to the frustrations of this unfair legislation. It does not honestly address the various learning styles and diversity of our students."

"The No Child Left Behind law has reduced the effectiveness of teachers in my district. Although, in theory, this law addresses the needs of students, it actually serves to justify government involvement in local issues, with no benefit children. It is a smoke screen, not a solution to bridging the achievement gap.
"Teachers spend far too much time teaching to a standardized test rather than inspiring students to think and fostering the love of learning for life.
"I have attended many state conferences on closing the gap. In each case, I have left with the idea that the only way to narrow that gap is to use instructional strategies that address the learning needs of my students--not give them another test."

"No dream is bigger than the person who conceives it, but it must be nurtured to grow into existence. The NCLB, which I have dubbed the Giant Dream Killer, has squashed the dreams of many young minds as well as mature minds. NCLB neither nurtures nor nourishes the dreams of students and teachers.
"Instead, it categorizes children and teachers under the same umbrella for living as well as learning. It does not take into account the abilities, creativities, or experiences of students or teachers and does not provide for the moments of wild-eyed wonder that make learning meaningful and valuable.
"NCLB expects every child to learn the same information in the same way and reach the same degree of success at the same time, despite their abilities and disabilities. It does not take into account the creative expressions that are uniquely innate to each individual, students and teachers alike. NCLB has squashed the dream of creativity in early childhood classrooms where big dreams are conceived.
"Whatever happened to exploration and discovery using the five senses? I submit that NCLB, the Giant Dream Killer, moved in quickly with weapons of mass destruction disguised as standardized testing, and children's dreams painfully died in the early stages of development.
"What happened to consideration for the social/emotional development of children? Again, NCLB, the Giant Dream Killer, stealthily undermined the possibility of having those needs addressed because of attendance AYPs. (In order to reach an attendance goal, students who are disruptive to the instructional process must remain in the school to attain that goal.)
"What happened to the arts, music, dance, and theater in the multi-intelligences learning process? Again, NCLB, the Giant Dream Killer, cut the umbilical cord of that dream, and it died of malnourishment due to lack of funding.
"I ask you, what happens to children whose dreams are crushed? Are their dreams deferred or do they slowly and painfully die? I submit to you that our precious children who come into school with wild-eyed wonder and enormous dreams are being subjected to educational legislation (NCLB) that is preventing them from reaching their full potential, and their dreams are being crushed without consideration.
"The joy of teaching these children has slowly diminished year after year because the thought of enforcing unfair practices (testing) upon unhappy, disappointed, sad, afraid (of failure), and justifiably uncooperative children depletes the energy and zeal of new teachers and leads to the early retirement of seasoned teachers.
"I plead with you to stop NCLB from placing nails in the coffin of children's unfulfilled dreams. Let's work together to create plans that ensure success for children, using whatever innate talent and abilities they have. Let's find ways to assess children that are fair and equitable.
"Finally, education should be funded more forcefully and fully than any other program in this nation. If this happens, our nation will continue to be the greatest in the world!"

"As a teacher for 26 years, my concern is the effect ESEA has on the students. How many students' needs are not being met because of testing? How many students are not finding the challenges they need to keep them involved because of testing? Students are losing interest in school at younger and younger ages, resulting in increased high school drop out rates.
"My nephew had no trouble passing tests -- he was intelligent. He did, however, have difficulty in school. He was not given the challenges he needed to be interested in school. The focus was on the test. But if you can already pass the test, and that is all that is being stressed and taught, where does that leave you? Uninvolved and disconnected.
"He dropped out in search of a better way. He is learning now by living life out of the testing environments of our schools. In addition to dropping out, he also has developed a negative attitude about all levels of education. We must make the changes necessary to meet the needs of our students. A test score is here today and gone tomorrow, but our students are here every day!"

"At my elementary school, the NCLB act has created another level of administration and paperwork. It is ironic that this bill was sold to the public as one that gives local control to the schools so that teachers can teach. It is also ironic that NCLB was sold as an act to get Washington out of the classrooms. The real-life effect of NCLB has been just the opposite.
"We now have a whole layer of certified people in our school building who have minimal, if any, contact with our students. NCLB is like the shell game in which you hide the true number of students in a class. We hire curriculum coordinators, then add them to our number of certified teachers, and then divide our number of students by this number of coordinators and classroom teachers. Using this formula, the class size appears to be around 17 students per class when, in reality, the actual number is closer to 23 or 24 students per class.
"NCLB encourages good teachers to get away from our students. We, as taxpayers, are paying a lot of money to transfer the bureaucracy of Washington into our local schools."
Virginia Hargett
Elementary School Teacher

"My school has become a school wide Title I school, which is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it has afforded more children the opportunity to receive instruction from an individual who is certified only in reading. On the other hand, it has diluted the amount of time the most needy children receive direct individualized instruction.
"Because the Title I teachers are going into the regular classroom to provide instruction to the whole group, the time to spend with the most needy in small group and/or individualized instruction is relegated to a time when the children are tired or when other equally important instruction is occurring in the regular classroom. Thus, they miss gaining a greater fund of knowledge in science, health, and social studies.
"The instruction provided in these subject areas are incorporated in our North Carolina end-of-grade reading tests. Therefore, if the children who are most needy in reading are out of the regular classroom when those other subjects are being taught, they, the most needy children, are put at a double or triple disadvantage: they have less individualized attention, they are taught in small groups or individually at a time when they are tired (end of day), and they are removed from the regular classroom program when essential knowledge is being provided, and so they are less able to understand and reference knowledge for a state test that affects each of them, their school, their teachers, and their families.
"There has to be a better way to coordinate delivery of services through more teachers, better scheduling, more materials, and offering instructional opportunities on Saturdays and in the summer. Our current efforts to remediate have, in many cases, further hampered our children's progress.
"Also, the children who have a need to be instructed at a more advanced level get fewer opportunities to develop their skills, talent, and knowledge because everything gets compressed toward the middle.
"People who do not understand all aspects of the needs of children and the provision of knowledge through our public schools need to keep their hands out of the pot and allow practicing educators to make decisions about what, how, who, and when to accomplish the instruction of reading and all other subjects. Instead of celebrating the growth in each children's skills and knowledge, we are demeaning them for not being like everyone else. This is a form of governmental bullying. Let us do our job the way we know best for every unique child."
Sandra Hatley
Teacher of Exceptional Children

"As a kindergarten teacher, I have experienced many years with a wide range of students. There have been students in my classes who were middle class, and there have also been students who didn't have enough money for a change of clothes for the next day of school. There have been students who can read when they walk in the door, and there have been those who could not even speak English.
"I have had students who write their name, and students who could not hold a crayon. When I consider the grand scope of No Child Left Behind, I think that someone forgot children like Paul (the name is changed in case this story becomes public).
"Paul came to my classroom this past school year towards the end of October. He had transferred from a county across the state. On his first day, Paul was led into the classroom, and when his mother went to leave, Paul dropped on the floor and began screaming. His mother was leaving the room, so I tried to distract Paul and keep him from running out of the room after her. Paul then ripped down the posters on the wall and began hitting other students.
"In the next month and a half, Paul continued these same behaviors while at school, and he was absent more than 15 days. His absences I could not control. His mother just simply chose not to bring him certain days. His behaviors I could not alter in this amount of time. I could only begin the process of helping him.
"The paperwork came in from his previous school, and we learned that Paul had been out of school for a little over a month before he was reenrolled. Without the prior learning experiences in life and with the gap between schools and the absences from my classroom, Paul was not progressing.
"Paul could not recognize a single letter of the alphabet or count past four in sequence. He was unable to identify shapes and could not hold a pencil or crayon in such a way that it could be utilized. Paul was in danger.
"Naturally, all of the referral processes were set in motion, in accordance with the law. On the date of the meeting to explain the outcome of the screening, Paul's mother stopped bringing him to school. That was the first week in December. It was not until March that Paul was re-enrolled in another school.
"Paul is a young boy who has missed guidance. He has missed having examples, modeling, and nurturing. A year of school can help Paul build these basic skills for reading and writing. His letter and number identification skills must come, but first he needs social skills. This has also become the duty of the educators in schools today.
"In No Child Left Behind, it is expected that students be placed on a track and reach a pre-set level by the end of the year. Paul will not be there this year or the next. The expected growth from me is unrealistic. The expected growth from NCLB is unrealistic. Students are real, live, breathing individuals, and they are individuals who are born and raised differently.
"I encourage each of you to consider the broad range of students in your legislative districts. There are Pauls in every diverse classroom. I, as an educator, am proud to accept responsibility for my students and their achievement -- to take them in, learn about their educational needs, and deliver the best designed personalized education for them. That is all we can do. NCLB does not make room for these needs. Please, remember Paul."
Kevin Martin
Kindergarten Teacher
Charlotte, North Carolina
"Our school system has required more and more paperwork over the past few years in order for teachers to document what and when they are teaching. Creativity and individuality have been taken out of the classroom because of teaching to the test. Workshops are taken so that teachers teach material the same way, using whatever the strategy of the month happens to be. Our teachers are indeed working harder, not smarter, because of expectations at the local level. Of course, the bottom line is raising test scores.
"When did we forget how to raise children? Not everyone is meant to be a writer or mathematician. We have need of other specialties, with all having pride for achieving a high school diploma. I am afraid that our drop-out rate will only increase because of expectations which cannot be met."
Alice Monk
Elementary School Teacher

Mt. Airy, North Carolina
"No Child Left Behind is failing many students, and children are left further behind now than in the past. We tell parents daily that children learn at different levels and at their own pace and development, yet we expect children to take a test at the end of the year that expects them all to have developed the same.
"Our children with special needs are leaving the schools and dropping out because we do not have funding to support their needs. I am an eighth-grade special education teacher who meets the needs of all my students on their individual level, but I am expected to create miracles.
"Many of our children have talents, but they may not necessarily be academic. They are placed in regular social studies and science classes but can't read beyond a fifth-grade level (some read at third-grade level). They are exposed to the curriculum but cannot understand it when reading.
"NCLB tries to put all kids in the same category and, in the process, limits their options. Because these children have not developed as expected, many eighth graders are 16 and quitting school, or 15 and quitting when they reach high school. We need to help our students and give them an alternative. We need to educate our youth and start meeting their vocational needs when they are younger and then focus on their future. We need to provide them with skills so they can provide for us later."
Kelly O'Hara
Middle School Special Education Teacher

Holly Springs, North Carolina
"Because of NCLB, many of my students have lost the will to learn. As an educator, I am expected to adapt curriculum to meet grade-level standards for students who are significantly below grade level in the first place. The IEP has become null and void. This law does not meet the needs of the children.
"I strongly believe that every child can learn, but at different rates, with different methods. One mold does not fix all. We are killing the individuality of each student. As a result, we are leaving more children behind, and forcing educators out of the profession."
Estella Poteat-Okafor
EC teacher
Person County
Roxboro, North Carolina
"When you visit my room, you'll find children of all ability levels. That's not unusual; however, most of the students' reading levels are three or four years below their grade. The NCLB mandates that these same students perform like their regular peers on formal tests. NCLB objectives do not take into consideration the fact that these children do have learning disabilities that prevent them from performing at or above the passing level and growth that is mandated.
"My students realize that they are under the gun, so to speak, and sometimes they give up. Then there are those classes in which the size is not conducive to optimal learning. We teachers are helping our kids and instructing them well. Help us to continue doing this with more teachers, better pay, and smaller classes. We are a great nation built on learning and implementing what we learn. We don't give up just because someone has decided that this 'best' education system has lost its effectiveness.
"Our students know the deal, and they still get tired and burnt out just like educators do, not because we are weak and ineffective, but because we are left out there alone and without proper funding for resources, human and material."
Pat Randall
Middle School Teacher
Cumberland County
Fayetteville, North Carolina
"I am a National Board Certified teacher with a Master's degree in reading who retired July 1, 2006, because teaching in North Carolina is about test results. Everything about teaching third graders must center around curriculum and testing. In a global society, I feel passionately about teaching children to think and discover things that interest them-something I was challenged to bring back to my children while working on my National Board certification for Middle School Generalist (one of the hardest areas to achieve certification, according to some sources). I choose to work on my National Boards at the end of my career, which has made me learn to reflect and rediscover the best practices in education.
"No Child Left Behind requires students to perform at a level that some will never achieve. This past year, I had a child who was severely handicapped in learning because of behavior issues. This child learned at a very slow pace; today she would know the concept, and tomorrow she would forget what she had learned. In our county, she would be required to repeat the third grade because of her low test score. She was 11 years old. Fortunately, my principal was willing to waiver this child.
"No Child Left Behind would leave this child in a situation that would cause her to drop out. The constant pressures of performance, someone watching over my classroom every day, increased expectations in the area of paperwork, and 12-hour workdays three or four days a week have burned me out. If I could just teach children to read and teach them about the world along with the curriculum, I would not retire. It is time for the pendulum to turn and to trust the teacher to do the job we want to perform."
Connie Savell
Third Grade Teacher (retired)
Cleveland County
Kings Mountain, North Carolina
"Teaching a self-contained class for deaf/hard-of-hearing students, I see the frustration experienced by my students who, this year, had to take a traditional paper-and-pencil test similar to our state's end-of-grade tests. American Sign Language and English have many differences that impact on their reading and comprehension. "
They could not have an interpreter to sign the reading passages or questions, many of which contained multiple-meaning words, colloquial expressions, and inferences. This is like taking a test in a foreign language. I could not explain or clarify for them, and they either teared up or quit trying.
"I teach my students that they are competent and that they are disabled, not Unable!! This type of assessment, rather than the previously used portfolio checklist with work samples, destroyed their confidence in their abilities and impressed them with what they were Unable to do!! If they were successful on grade-level assessments, they would be in regular education classes!!
"They repeatedly questioned why they had to take these tests when their parents signed an IEP that said they would take our individual alternative assessments. My only answer was that people who did not know them, who were not at our meetings, and who read and spoke English and had no hearing loss, voted that they needed to do this, and we had to make the change in their IEP.
"What happened to 'individualized'? How is this in their best interest? What happens to their self-esteem? How will this keep them from dropping out of school at 16, frustrated and depressed with their failing scores?
"How will these results help me plan to meet their needs? The results I get will tell me what they cannot do, something I already know because I work with them all day, every day, often for three years in a row! My students are capable! They learn differently and greatly benefit from an interpreter, just like their work situations will be, post secondary school, as the ADA provides!

"The way NCLB stands, it will leave every child behind. I should not have to let an ESP person leave the job she has held for 35 years simply because she is required to take a test or have an associate degree. Her 35 years of experience should speak for something.
"If you are requiring a test or a degree, then you should pay a salary that reflects such a credential. As it stands, a new person with no experience has to be trained, not only on paperwork, but also on how to work with children. The best practice is experience."
Patricia Utley
Elementary School Teacher

Fayetteville, North Carolina
"No Child Left Behind was very hard on my part-time assistant. It was hard because she was not rehired until after the school year had begun. That was only because of new legislation. She was still not deemed highly qualified, but she had all the compassion that any person could have to motivate students in a positive manner.
"She took the qualifying test many times and did not pass it. The negative outcome was so very hard on her as she tried to do her job and study to pass the math portion of the test. But thanks to NCAE, positive coworkers, and tutoring sessions, she finally passed the test and is now designated as highly qualified."

Saturday Night At The Liberal Curmudgeon: Grateful Dead Perform "Peggy-O"
Jerry Garcia leads the Grateful Dead in "Peggy-O" on June 26, 1994, in Las Vegas. The band started playing this traditional Scottish tune in the early 1970s. In "Folk Songs and Allusions to Folk Songs in the Repertoire of the Grateful Dead," Josephine McQuail writes, "All of the versions considered together suggest the story of a love affair between a travelling enemy soldier and a local girl which is thwarted by the girl's ambitious mother who wants a son-in-law with more money and a higher social status. Thus his declarations go from a promise of love...to threats against the locals' lives when he returns from his next march. But he dies, heartbroken because of love..." The vocals and guitar solo are pure Jerry, lyrical and heartfelt. Garcia's performance gains added poignancy by the fact that he was not in the best of health and passed away little more than a year later on August 9, 1995.
