      I never managed to pay attention to her.  
      As I try to engage the world around me I am assaulted with her shedings.
      My paternal great grandfather spent some of his retirement searching for a miracle in those surrounds. My mother packed us off to the U.U.s.

      The marine biologists have a name for this kind of behaviour: Feeding Frenzy.  Anthropologists call it cannibalism.
      Whatever it is called it is antisocial and ultimately destructive.  
      Taking the equity from a person without compensation has a name:
      Theft.

      I had intended to visit. I did not.  
      It has been a long time since I climbed a tree.  I spend more time on ladders than I could wish.  Roves are some of my favourite places.

      I like food.  There is no one else to cook. Mother can't give it the attention it requires.  I have not the income to go out or bring in.
      The convenience stuff is not that good.  
      I cook. 
      There is nothing sex linked about it.

      Sooner is better. ----------- As soon as you can is best.

      I see it work but I am unsure what I am seeing.
      I think it is a full body fake with a change of hands on the exit.
      Calls for bipartisanship from the right work the same way.

      Tree of Failure
      “Tree of Failure - http://nyti.ms/ezQrjS "Civility is a tree w/deep roots....” 
      As long as there is no agreement on the goal of government there can be no cooperation on reaching a goal. Any call for cooperation or as our politicians like to say, bipartisanship, is a surrender demand.
      Sweet words do not sweeten destruction.
      Let us consider first what must be done.
      Then consider methods of doing that.
      Opinions must yield to facts.

    Oil in Shale Sets Off a Boom in Texas
    Advocates of pulling oil from packed rock say it could raise the nation’s oil output by 25 percent within a decade, but evidence is mounting that the extraction technique, known as fracking, threatens water supplies.

      Egypt Reopens Border With Gaza

      The siege continues.  
      I will be interested to see the next development.
      I do not expect a shooting war with Egypt.
      There could be a relaxation of tensions between Turkey and Israel.

      Singapore Math Adopted in More U.S. Schools
      “Singapore Math Adopted in More U.S. Schools - http://nyti.ms/aup8vJ”
      I find the concept of growing into place very appealing.  Natural language learning works that way.  It is my belief that mathematics
      can be and is part of natural language. The words come before the concepts in this pattern. The concepts come with the manipulations.
      The formal proofs come much later.

      Because of the differences in preparation it is only fair to divide the lower grades into readiness groups so new material can be taught at optimum speed. If things are properly arranged new material can be 
      halted early for the advanced group. Trailing groups can be brought along. As synchroness  is achieved groups can be unified. There will always be several skill levels graduating.  Everyone does not need mastery.  They do need as much skill as they can attain.


I must get some sleep.
