The PRO Attempt At Emulsification

Emulsify: to convert two or more immiscible liquids into an emulsion.

Immiscible: not miscible; incapable of being mixed.

How long will it be before my blog links on the right will say "Gone - Hills Board?"

Hills Board: Has The Beginning of the End Begun?


One way to ensure that incidents remain isolated is to stop communication. Back in the day, when I became involved in many different venues within the special education system within the Hillsborough County Public Schools, I learned that "incidents" were repeated everyday. I learned then that the only reason the public bought into the spin that District-defended "incidents" were isolated was because no one could connect the dots. I learned not to except the premise simply because "they" were the ones that defined the premise. A story is a story.

I have heard that politics makes strange bedfellows. It appears that the Hills Board and Goader Online have found themselves in the same bed, metaphorically speaking of course. They are at least blanketed by the same covers.

I would urge all of those involved to convert the immiscible parts of politics, and even grammar, into an emulsion of understanding of a greater concern. All of the individual concerns of education, including tenure, test scores, pay scales, teacher retention and recruitment, etc, are effected by the amount of isolationism by our public education system.

When Goader, Hills Board, and Lee, see here, are on the same team, you have to wonder about who is naming the team.
