Now That’s Some Hissing Humor: 27 Cat Memes to Boost Your Spirits Until Halloween

admin

Hello, fellow feline fans, it’s the day before Halloween, that magical time when the air smells faintly of pumpkin spice, half the neighborhood is covered in fake cobwebs, and our cats are one spooky shadow away from accidentally scaring us to death. It’s the almost Halloween mood the excitement is bubbling, the costumes are ready (or maybe the cats have already shredded them), and we’re just counting down the hours until spooky o’clock finally arrives. But how do we pass the time until then? With cat memes, of course! Because let’s be honest cats and Halloween are kindred spirits. They’re mysterious, dramatic, slightly chaotic, and occasionally seen sprinting across the room at invisible forces. You don’t need ghosts when your cat already stares at walls like they’re haunted. So while we wait for trick-or-treaters to show up tomorrow and for our cats to knock over the pumpkin display for the fifteenth time, let’s settle into the purrfect pre-Halloween tradition: scrolling through some hissing humor. These hissterical cat memes will boost your spirits, tickle your funny bone, and get you through that final spooky countdown in the most feline way possible. Because honestly if Halloween is for witches and ghosts, today is for cat lovers and memes.

‘Know they’re lying’: Morning Joe doesn’t hold back over ‘lunacy’ of deadly Trump attack

admin

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough bashed President Donald Trump’s administration for carrying out a series of military strikes on alleged drug smuggling boats near Venezuela. The U. S. military has killed at least 60 people in the strikes over the past two months as Trump pressures Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, who the administration claims is illegitimate and the leader of a drug-trafficking organization, and the “Morning Joe” host accused them of “lying” about the situation.”It’s bizarre,” Scarborough said. “I mean, you look at where the drugs are coming in from Central and South America, the vast number of them are not coming from Venezuela. The suggestion that you’re going to stop fentanyl trafficking and the trafficking of cocaine and other drugs by blowing up boats off the coast of Venezuela is just complete lunacy and everybody knows it. Democrats and Republicans alike know they’re lying,” he added. “This isn’t about a drug war.”Washington Post columnist David Ignatius compared the administration’s posture to the 1823 foreign policy doctrine established by President James Monroe declaring that North and South America should be free from European influence.”This is about flexing your muscles in your own hemisphere,” Ignatius said. “The Wall Street Journal cleverly described this as the ‘Donroe Doctrine,’ playing off the Monroe Doctrine, which asserted that the this hemisphere, North and South America is our space and nobody’s allowed to to infringe on it, and Trump, as in so many other ways, seems to be moving back to the 19th century, and those definitions of American foreign policy at a time when U. S. interests are so clearly threatened in Europe by a very aggressive advancing Russia, and in Asia by by a growing Chinese threat. All this focus on Central, Latin America is just hard to understand.”.

Banana cat rejected from PetSmart Halloween trick-or-treat event because it was “only for dogs”, prompting pawrents to submit their costumed kitties and make a furrmal complaint

admin

We love dogs (not as much as we love cats, obviously), but they do tend to dominate the pet world. It seems like every pet event is geared towards doggos, and we get it dogs love going outside much more than cats. But what about us pawrents with cats who love to be social? With fluffy felines who like to go outside and pawticipate in events? On the rare occasions that we’ve taken one of our cats out with us, it was usually the dogs who couldn’t behave around them. 99% of the time, it’s not our cat who is the problem. We, as pawrents, also love to show them off in their cute costumes. They love the attention they get while wearing them, and we would love to take them to a trick-or-treat event for pets, like the one below. However, we would be purrfectly peeved if we showed up with our cat in a cute costume, only to be turned away because they only expected dogs to show up. And that’s exactly what happened. A cute banana cat showed up at a local PetSmart trick-or-treat event, only to be turned away because the “pet” event was only meant for dogs. Well, cats are pets too, aren’t they? They went home with a very disappointed kitty, and the cat community came to their aid by making a furrmal complaint to PetSmart and showing off all their cute costumed cats to make the sad banana feel better. See more kitties and drama below!.

Redefining Home: Why Comfort And Character Matter More Than Ever

admin

If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s how much our homes shape the way we feel. They’re where we work, rest, eat, dream, and recover often all in the same space. That’s changed the way people think about design. Homes aren’t being built just to look nice anymore; they’re being built . The post Redefining Home: Why Comfort And Character Matter More Than Ever appeared first on KHTS Radio.

Danyela Souza Egorov New York’s Plan for Math Instruction Doesn’t Add Up The state’s new Numeracy Initiative emphasizes equal outcomes over merit and rigor.

admin

New York students’ math scores lag the national average and have remained stagnant for many years, despite massive increases in per-pupil funding. In May, the New York State Department of Education (NYSED) launched a Numeracy Initiative to address the issue. Unfortunately, its guidance will lead to even poorer math instruction. The initiative has released a series of Numeracy Briefs, which aim to instruct educators in “best practices for effective mathematics instruction.” The briefs were produced by TeachingWorks, a group led by University of Michigan professor Deborah Loewenberg Ball. The group’s goal, according to its website, is to promote “teaching to create a more just society” and to develop “equitable, skillful teaching.” The briefs quickly caused confusion and concern among educators who attended NYSED’s professional development sessions. Some noticed that the guidance from NYSED contradicted well-established math pedagogy, as well as advice from other experts in the field. They reached out to Benjamin Solomon, an associate professor in school psychology at the University of Albany, who has conducted several webinars on math instruction. He wrote a letter to NYSED commissioner Betty Rosa detailing the Numeracy Briefs’ inaccuracies and questionable practices. The letter garnered support from more than 160 teachers, parents, and researchers, all of whom signed a petition calling for the briefs to be withdrawn. Solomon’s letter states that the briefs cite only two meta-analyses to support their recommendations and rely mostly on books and articles-all while ignoring the substantial body of research that constitutes the science of math. As Solomon noted, “the briefs are mostly [TeachingWorks’] opinion.” Asked to comment on Solomon’s letter, NYSED responded by stating, “Attempts to distort or politicize this work will not deter NYSED’s commitment to advancing high-quality, equitable mathematics instruction for every student in New York State.” Open Book New York has no records showing how much NYSED paid TeachingWorks to produce the briefs. NYSED should disclose the amount so the public can understand how much was spent to develop guidance that leaves educators and students so confused. State legislators should also hold hearings to investigate how the briefs’ recommendations diverge from established math science.
