With calls for the nations of Europe, the U.S. and Canada to help, there come calls for the Middle East to do its part. I posted earlier today of a refugee camp in Jordan, Syria has been in a Civil War for some time and it is only now that we are up in arms. We must all help, do what we can.

Who is teaching our children?
Read this article on facebook this morning. Got my ire up for sure. After spending most of teaching career looking for the truth to share with my students, encourage discussion and debate I read this article about a college professor with a very closed mind, I won't say he is racist just uninformed.

Life in Hungary part one: 1) Hungarian can only be compared to Finnish twins who were left alone too long and created their own secret language. Don't try to understand it, don't even play.
2) Hungarians believe speaking their language LOUDER AND SLOWER will make you understand...even with the copious amounts of seemingly random 'z's thrown in higglty-piggltey.
3) Drivers will run you over, so will the bicyclists but I thnk they will feel a little bad about it, zebra crossings are a combo of chicken and trust exercise.
4) No applicators on tampons...in the entire country. Evidently in the struggle between communism and capitalism this was the hard line that was drawn.
5) All hotels/ motels, most places you want to sleep have no automatc locks. That means you lock yourself in at night and try not to think about motel fires until you figure out you're supposed to leave the key in the lock.
