The guy has failed to use funds apportioned to Oklahoma schools from both Federal and State sources, and has stonewalled attempts from the state legislature to investigate the Oklahoma DoE. He's being sued for defamation of a superintendent and has outright defied the Oklahoma Supreme Court.
He's speedrunning the alienation of his own party.
Those numbers are from the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health. Regardless of whether they're true or not, Israel supporters won't believe those numbers.
It's because education is sold as a way to get a job. Nobody communicates the value of being an educated person other than the salary one could potentially make.
Not a native speaker, so I could be wrong about this:
I've seen a construction using proper nouns (eg. Annas Haus) where an "s" indicates possession, but no apostrophe. This doesn't seem to apply to non-proper nouns (das Haus der Frau) and is different from normal genitive construction that adds an "s" to masc/neut noun genders (das Haus des Mannes)
Pandemic was actually pretty good for most board game stores, as people needed something to do at home.
I didn't like it because they spent so much time doing character development (Barney in particular) and just dumped it all out the window.
The problem is that "women are attracted to nice guys" implies that "being nice" itself is "enough" to be attractive. Guys get this idea that all they have to bring to the table is "I'm not a jerk" and the ladies will fall into their laps. The problem is, the jerk down the road is in better shape, has interesting hobbies, and/or has a real, dependable job. Being "nice" is like having two slices of bread and saying you have a sandwich. If you don't put anything between the bread slices, everyone's going to opt to order the burrito instead because it's got an actual filling.
I consume a lot of cottage cheese. Pre-Covid the 48oz container I buy cost about $2.50. The price spiked to about $5.00 during quarantine and has since fallen down to about $3.00. There's a lot of items that have followed similar trends and, while they're more expensive than they were in early 2020, they're not at their Covid spike prices which is what everyone seems to think.
