Dear @Ofstednews
*Re: Teachers have passed the test the Government have failed*
My letter in response to @GavinWilliamson's request for parents to complain about online provision of learning during global pandemic. It might appeal to parents & #EduTwitter alike. THREAD⬇️

 I would like to echo the recent recommendation of my MP, who I understand has education as one of their priorities.
They lead with religious and political faith, and I'd like you to lend from their methods of applying faith over fact, if you could.
You see, I have faith in schools communicating clearly, consistently and safely as the facts have demonstrated they can. Unlike the cabinet. https://t.co/3uctLcmFoe
Schools have acknowledged the fear and confusion communities have suffered when this government has failed to deliver clear and consistent messages that lend to 'common sense'. https://t.co/LQVObae3Zm
This, despite the fact their 'common sense' pleas for the contradicting that of their own dangerous behaviour. https://t.co/jz9cxkO2sP
I have faith that my children are well cared for, as provision from schools for the most vulnerable and keyworker children has never stopped and learning from home has provided child-focused, innovative, personal and professional support.
This, despite the fact that the 'Christian' leader of the House criticises international support for deprived families.
https://t.co/7ATgFHAsmr
I have faith that the schools are prioritising wider community needs, as the facts of the new variant come into focus.
This, despite the fact that school leaders acting as 'Captains of their own ship' in areas of rapid infection were threatened with legal action for wanting to protect @nhsmillion & community by this government. https://t.co/ez0dd2DJz7
I have faith that schools are leaning on facts to inform their safety critical decision making.
This, despite repeated cabinet lies stating that 'schools are safe', when the scientific evidence (here, dated 8th December) shows them, repeatedly, this is untrue. https://t.co/RAafVfSd6t
I have faith that schools, with the support of healthcare professionals in the field (my brother, leading a covid unit, included) are resiliently maintaining professional standards.
When the facts are this government has repeatedly rejected the bedrock of political life, the Nolan principles. https://t.co/c61oooFWMx
I have every faith that schools are communicating effectively, using all channels available to them to safely explain policy decisions & reassure communities when this government has failed to deliver the same with economic, legal and fatal consequences.
https://t.co/B39SWLiynD
I have every faith that the school will work efficiently and economically in the best interests of those they serve, with the limited provision granted them by this government.
This, despite the fact that test and trace is *still* not working, with cronyism and abuse of public funds well documented here. @sophie_e_hill 🙏🏼
https://t.co/r2c3Hkf8cR
I have every faith that the over-promised and over-promoted laptops, lining donor's pockets in the process, will reach families who need them... once the negotiated contact has been delivered to schools. 🤦🏼‍♀️https://t.co/WjogzEuwGS
Most importantly, I have every faith that without fear nor favour, the educators of this country will continue to give our children & future talent pipeline of this country the skills, knowledge & experiences they need to critically assess individual & collective problems.
Government attempts to limit the curriculum, critical thinking & 'flattening the grass' will fail & this government will be held to account.
https://t.co/dimY4KQDT9
I take solace that the fact the government's 'world-beating' failings are being delivered by a cabinet where two-thirds were privately educated provides adequate illustration of how *not* to teach.
In conclusion, if we look at the facts, schools and their leaders have done an exemplary job of managing this pandemic, despite the fact that the government has failed the same test.
Schools have responded quickly, honestly, consistently and with integrity in contrast to the delays, lies, hypocrisy and failings of this government. (Credit @alexwickham for timeline)
And I have every faith that school leaders will continue to act in the best interests of pupils, parents, staff, suppliers and communities, despite the fact that this government can't or won't. https://t.co/HJZQ6arGMa
Many thanks again to the school leaders, staff & suppliers for their over politicised and under-valued role in managing this pandemic and, as this government fails, Britain's future. Yours sincerely, Parent of 2.

Dear postgraduate students

Everyone says selecting your supervisor(s) will make or break obtaining your degree with a sound mind. This is true. So here are a few of my own tips on just how to do that. I hope it helps.

(Thread)

1. Know what you need from the get-go. As people, and as students, we need different things to succeed. Ensure you know what this is for you and make your search and eventual selection of a supervisor based on that.

2. How do you know which academic does what? Either email a number of potential academics or organise a quick in-person/online meeting with them to discuss their respective research interests. You can either align yourself to these or ask if they’re willing to take you on but...

...supervise a topic outside of their own research interests. It’s not unheard of but just depends on them.

3. Ask them about their supervision style, what works for them and assess whether that sounds like it would work for you. You can love their research topics but if you feel like they won’t be a good enough supervisor, find someone else. Remember you’re going to be spending...

1/ 🚨BREAKING: Lawsuit filed today against educational agencies, teachers, principal, & CEO responsible for hosting workshops requiring children to make public professions about their racial, sexual, gender & religious identities, some of which were singled out for interrogation.


2/ Educators directed the plaintiff "to reveal his identities in a controlled, yet non-private setting, to scrutiny and official labeling," and are "coercing him to accept and affirm politicized and discriminatory principles and statements that he cannot in conscience affirm."

3/ The educators "repeatedly threatened William Clark with material harm including a failing grade and non-graduation if he failed to comply with their requirements."


4/ Plaintiffs claim that the educators' "coercive and intrusive behavior compelled William Clark’s protected speech and invaded his privacy, violating his constitutional rights under the First Amendment and his due process rights under the Fourteenth Amendment."

5/ The new curriculum, based on Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality, was done stealthily: "The generic name and syllabi provided to parents remained the same," and "parents were not made aware of the ideological turn in the curriculum."

1) 🚨BREAKING: Parents file lawsuit against Villa Duchesne High School for "intentional racial discrimination" against white students, and using "coercion, intimidation, and threats" to indoctrinate students into Critical Race Theory.


2) Students were told that all white people are racist because they're white, and that black students should "be free from discipline regardless of their behavior."


3) Plaintiff's daughter was subjected to "verbal attacks, and physical threats, social ostracism, false imprisonment, permanent damage to her reputation, and severe and continuing emotional and psychiatric injury."


4) In October a student claimed that the Plaintiff's daughter had stood up in class, pointed to a black student and said "Black Lives Do NOT Matter!"

However, the class where this vent allegedly took place was videotaped, and upon review no such event had occurred.


5) Following the accusations, the plaintiff's daughter was "subject to enormous social ridicule and threats of personal violence."

During a meeting, the principal and a faculty member allowed a black student to aggressively verbally berate the daughter, without intervention.

Last month I presented seven sentences in seven different languages, all written in a form of the Chinese-character script. The challenge was to identify the languages and, if possible, provide a


Here again are those seven sentences:

1) 他的剑从船上掉到河里去
2) 於世𡗉番𧡊哭唭𢆥尼歲㐌外四𨑮
3) 入良沙寢矣見昆腳烏伊四是良羅
4) 佢而家喺邊喥呀
5) 夜久毛多都伊豆毛夜幣賀岐都麻碁微爾夜幣賀岐都久流曾能夜幣賀岐袁
6) 其劍自舟中墜於水
7) 今天愛晚特語兔吃二魚佛午飯

Six of those seven sentences are historically attested. One is not: I invented #7. I’m going to dive into an exploration of that seventh sentence in today’s thread.

Sentence #7 is an English-language sentence written sinographically — that is, using graphs that originate in the Chinese script. I didn’t do this for fun (even though it is fun), or as a proposal for a new way to write


I did it as a thought experiment. Why? Because thinking about how the modern Chinese script might be adapted to write modern English can give us valuable insights into historical instances of script borrowing, like those that took place centuries ago in Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.

Funny, before the election I recall lefties muttering the caravan must have been a Trump setup because it made the open borders crowd look so bad. Why would the pro-migrant crowd engineer a crisis that played into Trump's hands? THIS is why. THESE are the "optics" they wanted.


This media manipulation effort was inspired by the success of the "kids in cages" freakout, a 100% Stalinist propaganda drive that required people to forget about Obama putting migrant children in cells. It worked, so now they want pics of Trump "gassing children on the border."

There's a heavy air of Pallywood around the whole thing as well. If the Palestinians can stage huge theatrical performances of victimhood with the willing cooperation of Western media, why shouldn't the migrant caravan organizers expect the same?

It's business as usual for Anarchy, Inc. - the worldwide shredding of national sovereignty to increase the power of transnational organizations and left-wing ideology. Many in the media are true believers. Others just cannot resist the narrative of "change" and "social justice."

The product sold by Anarchy, Inc. is victimhood. It always boils down to the same formula: once the existing order can be painted as oppressors and children as their victims, chaos wins and order loses. Look at the lefties shrieking in unison about "Trump gassing children" today.

NARHARI AND BHAGWAN PANDURANG/VITTHAL

Once a goldsmith by the name of Narhari lived in Pandharpur. He excelled in his craft. He had vowed not to look at Pandurang or visit his mandir ever, as he was a Shiva Bhakt.
One day, a wealthy merchant visited him.


He wanted a gold girdle studded with precious gems, to be made for Prabhu Vitthal. Narhari refused to make it as it was for Vitthal.
After many requests, he agreed to make the girdle but asked the merchant to bring the measurement from the mandir as he himself would not go there


The measurement was given n he made the girdle. When the girdle was put on Vitthal, it was loose. Narhari had to shorten it. Now the girdle became tight. So Narhari was forced to take measurement on his own. He had to go to the mandir but went blindfolded to avoid seeing Vitthal


In the Mandir, when blindfolded Narhari touched Vitthal, he felt as if he was touching Shiva with matted hair, the moon, snake in His neck and Trishul in His hand. Ecstatic with joy, he removed the blindfold to see Shiva but he found the murti of Vitthal with Rukmini there.


He realised the truth that there was no difference between Vitthal and Shiva. Narhari at once fell at the feet of Panduranga. He then took the measurement of the waist of Vitthal and this time the ornament fit the Murti perfectly.

So friends here is the thread on the recommended pathway for new entrants in the stock market.

Here I will share what I believe are essentials for anybody who is interested in stock markets and the resources to learn them, its from my experience and by no means exhaustive..

First the very basic : The Dow theory, Everybody must have basic understanding of it and must learn to observe High Highs, Higher Lows, Lower Highs and Lowers lows on charts and their

Even those who are more inclined towards fundamental side can also benefit from Dow theory, as it can hint start & end of Bull/Bear runs thereby indication entry and exits.


Next basic is Wyckoff's Theory. It tells how accumulation and distribution happens with regularity and how the market actually

Dow theory is old but
