She's been bringing those branded clementine oranges to work. She's also been making a big deal out of how it's about GD time that the government has made food manufacturers offer healthy food for lunches, like Cuties, instead of GMO crap. I guess clementine oranges didn't exist before now or something.
Anyway, I played dumb. "Oh, they aren't GMO or genetically manipulated? Aren't they Clementines? Do they have seeds?"
She says "No seeds, which is as it should be because Monsanto breeds pesticides into the seeds which make children sick."

Very little. The case was based almost entirely on circumstantial evidence. There was some DNA evidence that put him at the scene but that was it.
But the circumstantial evidence was overwhelming. Surprised it took 7 days for the verdict.

No. That's actually a big problem. Seeds for planting are often treated with pesticides to keep vermin and insects at bay until they are planted. And sometimes people eat them (3rd World mostly) and become ill or die.

It's actually fairly common practice. Not just GMO with pesticides, but most seeds are permeable and will readily absorb pesticides. If you think that's interesting, google "GURT" seed technology. That is flat-out SCARY.

This one is titled, Tox-Sick and describes how she and her hubby moved into a house four years ago that was filled with toxic mold.The story she told was so unbeliveably ridiculous and Doocy, Kilmeade, and Stepford wife rolled right along with it.
Somers claimed that she swelled up , ended up in the hospital where doctors told her she was filled with cancer, she refused chemo and they told her to get her affairs in order as she would die. She said her husband ended up with mold in his brainstem causing tremors, etc. that took two years to resolve.
She said it turned out to simply be the toxic mold they were exposed to , then she went on to claim that toxins are purposefully put int mattresses, etc. children's toys, etc.
She gave Jenny McCarthy 's antivax claims a real run for the money.

Lots of plants create their own pesticides. That is what the capsacins in peppers are. Mesquite bushes produce a substance that not only poisons pests but also kills off nearby plants so that there will be less competition for water in the arid places where mesquite grow. Rape seed produce a foul tasting acid oil which was bred out of it to produce canola plants.

Both of these. En loco parentis my pasty-white ass. Schooling is compulsory; I don't have an option of *not* schooling my child (and depending on the state, even home-schooling or private schooling can have prohibitive hurdles placed in front of them).
But *if* you're going to claim you're working En loco parentis, you'd better damn well take care of my kid like you're his (or her) parent.

We have a similar thing here on the island. This place was originally all farms owned by the wealthy from Providence and Newport and there are still a few large (by the standards of this place) farms.
All year round we get farm fresh meats and cheeses right at the farms and in the summer we have a farmer's market for produce and all of it is grown on the island.

If the teachers are part of the bullying, that means it's an official state action and you can and should rip their nuts off.
Lawfare goes both ways. You know what also sharpens the mind considerably? Reporting each and every incident to the police.

Could any of the lawyers here chime in with an opinion as to whether there is a good chance of winning this case? My first choice for relief would be for all of the teachers and administrators who participated in the on line mob to be terminated and lose all pension rights with the worst offenders to be tarred and feathered. However, I think it might be reasonable to compromise and settle for full tuition and fees at an expensive private school until high school graduation.

Loretta Lynch supporters stage hunger strike to urge confirmation
The advocacy group founded by the Rev. Al Sharpton, along with female civil-rights leaders, are launching the hunger strike - where groups of fasters will alternate days abstaining from food until Lynch is confirmed to replace Eric Holder at the Justice Department.

When you talk to a lawyer, I'd see if there's any chance the damages could include having the School District (and I know that means the Tax Payers. Too bad.) pay for private school for the rest of the time your daughter (and if she has any younger siblings: them, too) is in school.

I would print those off and have them in hand, along with printouts of the tweets, with you when you meet w/the school.
Bullying a a Big Thing in schools and you could probably find some key words to drop, such as "unsafe." Maybe also check out anything put out by Obama's former Safe Schools Czar put out while in office.

Yes, its not the initial scuffle with the tweets that are the major problem, even if the school apologizes publicly, it will be the on-going harassment that needs nipped in the bud. Those kids, being kids, believe they have the backing of the school system, which they probably do.

If the teachers were tweeting her too, they do have the de facto backing of the school. It's not like the teachers will do anything to step in when they agree with the bullying students. They've already proven it by tweeting approvingly.

Something similar happened here recently, but I don't think the kids who felt uncomfortable about it were bullied, unlike your poor daughter. The speaker actually demonstrated to the kids how he used to huff glue. Who chooses these morons as appropriate speakers for young kids? Edumacation, not what it used to be.

Like 99.9% of all WWII ex post facto impractical exercises in moral narcissism, I believe the usual mythology about the Dresden raid is baseless. Think the place was a center of what would now be called hi-tech German military production (optics, electronics), not to mention a transport hub of importance to the eastern front that had not been hit much or at all until then.
If Heidelberg had been leveled, we might have a case. But as with Kyoto, the Allies displayed not just good sense but civilized impulses amidst the Axis madness. And in Kyoto the Japs were sensible enough to recognize it as a sanctuary and do some production there.

Kale is too peppery for me raw, but I love it in slow cooker soups, leaves are thick so it really holds up. Zuppa Toscana? Yumm. (But adding a lot of sausage and cream to the soup helps too, lol.)
