Mothers sue after children catch Covid at Wisconsin schools with no mandates | Wisconsin | The Guardian

Two Wisconsin mothers whose children had Covid-19 in September have sued their school districts, for “needlessly and recklessly endangering the health and safety” of their children and other students.

Both lawsuits accuse the school districts of creating a “snake pit” for students by not implementing Covid-19 safety measures recommended by health officials, such as indoor masking, at their schools this year.

The suits say the Falls Creek school district and school board and Waukesha school district and school board “are aware that by removing their Covid-19 mitigation measures they are needlessly and recklessly endangering the health and safety of their students”.

Gina Kildahl filed on Monday in Wisconsin’s western district court after her child, a Falls Creek district elementary school student, tested positive for Covid-19 in late September.

The complaint said the school board voted against a mask requirement for the 2021-22 school year and that people are allowed to visit the district without masks or being screened or tested for Covid-19.

While Kildahl’s child wore a mask to school each day, according to the complaint, many other students did not. In late September, there was an outbreak in her child’s class and the child tested positive.

NUNCA

No aconsejes a nadie que no te lo haya pedido.
Ni acorrales a un cobarde ni a un león herido.
No creas que lo evidente siempre es la verdad.
No dinamites un puente que un día debas cruzar.
Si todo va muy bien, seguro va a pasar algo malo.
Y a veces no se rompe el hilo por lo más delgado.
Nunca abras el paraguas antes que empiece a llover.
Ni regales un libro a quién no sabe leer.
No deseés que mueran tus enemigos: es mejor que estén vivos para verte triunfar.
La conciencia vale más que mil testigos.
Nunca lastimes a quién después no puedas matar.

En este entorno en donde todo lo rige el soborno: oestás en la cocina o estás en el horno.
Nunca toques nada si todo está bien.
Nunca dudes y dejes pasar el tren.
No festejes que es miércoles si aún es martes.

Victoria Kent

MUJERES Olvidadas…

Las hubo tanto guerreras como científicas, aventureras como políticas, reinas, nobles, intelectuales, astrónomas, escritoras, o… simplemente esposas.

Victoria Kent nació en Málaga en 1898. Feminista, abogada y política republicana española. Nació en el seno de una familia acomodada y liberal, tuvo profesores particulares y luego se trasladó a Madrid en 1917, para ingresar a la Universidad Central, donde estudió Derecho.

Se licenció en 1924, siendo la primera mujer en ingresar en el Colegio de Abogados, en plena dictadura de Primo de Rivera (1870-1930). Su primera intervención como abogada defensora fue en 1930, defendiendo ante el Tribunal Supremo de Guerra y Marina a un miembro del Comité Revolucionario Republicano. Consiguió la absolución de su defendido, lo que le dio reconocimiento público.

En la Segunda República en 1931, Victoria fue electa diputada por el Partido Radical Socialista, junto a Clara Campoamor por el Partido Republicano Radical. Fue designada Directora General…

Inhale Peace; Exhale Love. Joy will Follow! - RUELHA

Remember this song, anyone? Well, it released in 1998. I remember it was my favourite tune for quite a while then. The video is undoubtedly sinister. Being brought up Catholic, I always felt immense guilt listening to it and humming it all day and night. I am a sucker for songs that have multiple interpretations that can be so immensely varied. This song has so much depth. It’s one of those – feel free to pick one! I’ve attempted to inculcate most of the renditions in my poem in an attempt to do an iota of justice to this fascinating song! I’ve listed some of them:

  • Satan’s CTA: It feels as if Lucifer is connivingly coaxing the holy innocents to submit to the lusts of his world – sin, temptation, vanity, addiction, greed, hatred, unforgiveness etc.
  • Consumerism: It can be seen as how materialism and instant gratification have…

To Follow Your Life Calling, You May Have to Break Certain Rules

MoTEnv — MTE

Following your life calling may be easier said than done, and in many instances, if you want to follow your life calling, you certainly have to break rules—“the rules”—or the status quo. Usually, it is in this manner that many creative people best unfold their creativity.

To follow your life calling religiously, you don’t always have to remain in familiar territory and just continue doing what is expected of you. At a certain point in time, you have to break rules or deviate from tradition and forge a different or completely new path for yourself.

Many creative people find it difficult to cope in places or systems that require them to follow rules

History has shown that a lot of creative kids and grown-ups are quite impatient with rules which they usually tend to bend or break in order to unleash their creativity as much and as freely as they…

Massachusetts National Guard activated to help with COVID-19 testing in schools | TheHill

Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker (R) activated members of the National Guard on Tuesday to help with COVID-19 testing in schools, as education facilities struggle to test students and teachers amid staff shortages.

Up to 200 members of the Massachusetts National Guard have been activated to help with testing in the state’s public K-12 schools, Baker’s office announced. The governor said the move will provide “additional staffing support” for school testing programs.
