I think it's the same. I think corn and Roundup often go hand in hand,
maybe more so than Roundup and other vegetables.

They're nasty little things. I've had them on me, but not the paralysis
type, apparently. I fear them more for our cats than for us. Cats are
good at suffering in silence.

I've become really good at removing them quickly and neatly. I just wish
I didn't need that skill.

I´m interested in is, will, does, isn´t, won't and doesn´t. Potential,
could, should, might and other qualifiers render statements as simply guesses
that may or may not be true.
Many base their belief system on weenie word qualifiers. I blame our
education system. Symbolic logic should be a mandatory course in high school.

Your approach is "I don't mind Roundup on my vegetables because it
might not be carcinogenic?"

We have to remember to do a tick check when we come in from the woods.
They come out while there is still snow on the ground. I couple years
ago I have on on my bellow and when I pulled on it the head snapped off
inside. I tried treating it like a splinter, squeezing around it,
trying to pry it out with needle.. nothing worked. Several people
insisted I had to go to the doctor so I went to a walk-in clinic. The
doctor said he coudln't do anything for it, he would just make a bigger
mess than I had. He said to leave it and when it heals it will pop off
in the scab. He was right.

Here's the latest, Leo...look for the US population to become even more ignorant than it already is:

https://www.foxnews.com/us/virginia-...courses-equity

Virginia moving to eliminate all accelerated math courses before 11th grade as part of equity-focused plan
State says framework includes 'differentiated instruction' catered to the needs of the child

"The Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) is moving to eliminate all accelerated math options prior to 11th grade, effectively keeping higher-achieving students from advancing as they usually would in the school system.

Loudoun County school board member Ian Serotkin posted about the change via Facebook on Tuesday. According to Serotkin, he learned of the change the night prior during a briefing from staff on the Virginia Mathematics Pathway Initiative (VMPI).

"[A]s currently planned, this initiative will eliminate ALL math acceleration prior to 11th grade," he said. "That is not an exaggeration, nor does there appear to be any discretion in how local districts implement this. All 6th graders will take Foundational Concepts 6. All 7th graders will take Foundational Concepts 7. All 10th graders will take Essential Concepts 10. Only in 11th and 12th grade is there any opportunity for choice in higher math courses."

His post included a chart with what appeared to be set math courses for 2022-2030.

School Board Vice Chair Atoosa Reeser similarly expressed concern on Facebook, pointing to Serotkin's post. "Please see my colleagues post regarding a new initiative by the VDOE," she said. "The ability to accelerate math at the schools in the Algonkian district has been a well-appreciated option for many students. Please keep a lookout for an information item to be on the Board agenda in the near future, which I will share in my Weekly Work-Up."

The plan for implementing these ideas in various school districts is unclear. While Virginia has maintained that school districts have discretion, Serotkin said on Facebook that the county was restricted. In response to a question about whether the county had to adopt the framework he mentioned, Serotkin said: "I asked that exact question last night," referring to Monday's meeting. "It is a requirement from the state and we have to adopt it."

VDOE did not immediately respond when asked about Serotkin's comment.

During a webinar posted on YouTube in December, a member of the "essential concepts" committee claimed that the new framework would exclude traditional classes like Algebra 1 and Geometry.

Committee member Ian Shenk, who focused on grades 8-10, said: "Let me be totally clear, we are talking about taking Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2 €“ those three courses that we've known and loved ... and removing them from our high school mathematics program, replacing them with essential concepts for grade eight, nine, and 10."

Shenk also clarified that under the framework, everyone in eighth grade would take "essential concepts 8."

"So think about Grade 8, all of our students will be in a heterogeneously-grouped class and taking essential concepts 8 at the same time," he said. VDOE didn't respond when asked by Fox News about this, either.

Shenk did say that the concepts courses wouldn't eliminate algebraic ideas but rather interweave multiple strands of mathematics throughout the courses. Those included data analysis, mathematical modeling, functions and algebra, spatial reasoning and probability.

VDOE spokesperson Charles Pyle indicated to Fox News that the courses would allow for at least some variation depending on students' skill level. "Differentiated instruction means providing instruction that is catered to the learning needs of each child (appropriate levels of challenge and academic rigor)," Pyle said.

On VDOE's website, the state features an infographic that indicates VMPI would require "concepts" courses for each grade level. It states various goals like "[i]mprove equity in mathematics learning opportunities," "[e]mpower students to be active participants in a quantitative world," and "[i]dentify K-12 mathematics pathways that support future success."

The changes were just the latest of many to prompt concern from parents in the state, which has seen in-fighting over controversial ideas surrounding equity and race.

A Loudoun parent who spoke on the condition of anonymity worried that the changes would "lower standards for all students in the name of equity."

"These changes will have a profound impact on students who excel in STEM related curriculum, weakening our country's ability to compete in a global marketplace for years to come," the parent told Fox News on Thursday.

Ian Prior, a Loudoun parent and former Trump administration official, similarly panned the move as a way to "stifle advancement for gifted students and set them back as they prepare for advanced mathematics in college. This is critical race theory in action and parents should be outraged."

Pyle didn't provide an immediate answer to concerns that the new model would hold kids back. It's unclear how exactly the differentiation would occur. When asked for more details, Pyle said, "Differentiated instruction is designed to provide the appropriate levels of challenge and academic rigor for each student."

The changes come as the state also considered eliminating advanced high school diplomas in an attempt to improve equity.

In a lengthy statement to Fox News, Pyle touted the changes as an avenue to "deeper learning."

"For many years, parents and the system have valued and rewarded speed via acceleration and 'covering content' rather than depth of understanding. The Virginia Mathematics Pathway Initiative shifts to a focus on and value for deeper learning through differentiated instruction on grade level that will promote student development of critical thinking, authentic application and problem solving skills," Pyle said.

Pyle added that VMPI "aims to support increased differentiated learning opportunities within a heterogeneous learning environment, that will promote greater access to advanced mathematical learning for all students before high school graduation.

"Shifting to deeper learning through differentiated instruction, implementation of VMPI will promote student development of critical thinking, authentic application and problem solving skills.

"Offering an inclusive learning environment that engages and challenges students of varied levels of understanding and different interests will be a focus of the common mathematics pathways proposed in grades K-10 ... These pathways seek to restructure mathematics education by focusing instruction on reasoning, real world problem solving, communication and connections while shifting away from an emphasis on computation and routine problem practice."

Later in the statement, he adds: "VMPI implementation teams continue to work on addressing these considerations while moving forward to improve equity in mathematics opportunities for all students. VMPI Community meetings being offered this spring are intended to provide initial information regarding the initiative, but also be a venue in which feedback can be collected."

It's unclear how these changes would affect each school district, but VDOE said it's currently gathering feedback regarding public concerns.

"The VMPI implementation team (VDOE, college and university staff, and school division staff) is currently working to seek feedback to help ensure local implementation practices address concerns like the shift from acceleration to deeper learning," said Pyle..."

Sunlight is a carcinogen. Hell, depending upon genetics, life is a
carcinogen. Get over it.

But Roundup can be avoided. Just because too much sun is bad for you,
is no reason to start smoking again either.

While you typed that, a couple quadrillion neutrinos passed through you. One
may have reacted. You may have just gotten cancer.
I avoid proven carcinogens when I can. I´ve never used Roundup, but I´m
not afraid of it. I´m not comfortable with poisons in general, and that has
nothing to do with cancer.

You're not afraid of Roundup, but you're not comfortable with it. A
very subtle statement, indeed.

As you should well know, it's not so much about the corn Americans
grow and eat as a vegetable, but the corn used for animal feed and
as feedstock for industrial food manufacture.

Some countries have banned its use, but it's slow going. Avoiding
GMOs helps in avoiding glyphosate exposure, although it's still
used as a desiccant prior to harvest for a variety of grains and
pulses; not just corn.

Why should I know that? I thought all American corn, except organic,
was exposed to Roundup. And probably not just American corn either.

Yes, money's more important than health/environment. And not just in
the US.

Why would you rant about shit about which you know nothing?
Isn't it embarrassing?

> I thought all American corn, except organic,

"All American corn" is quite a broad brush. There is Roundup-ready
"sweet corn" available, but not all growers use it. I'm sure the sweet
corn that's canned and frozen uses Roundup. Fewer of the small
growers who sell their corn fresh use Roundup as a desiccant
because that corn is picked by hand from green plants.

> And probably not just American corn either.


Which you would know if you even did the paltry amount of
investigation that is involved in going to Wikipedia.

You've already gone from "corn used for animal feed" to "the sweet corn
that's canned and frozen".

Corn is very Roundup suspicious. That's all I said and you confirmed
it. What's the problem?

That sounds like you've never had fresh either.
Fresh on the cob corn has a very nice and unique taste that commercially
frozen or canned loses.

Same as fresh picked garden tomatoes vs frozen or canned or even fresh
from a grocery store.

It's a huge taste difference.

I like to buy fresh local corn in the spring and early summer then
immediately process them for the freezer. No blanching necessary. Just
cut the kernals off the cobs and bag them (one ear per bag) and freeze.
Even when heated up 6 months later, they still have that good taste.

I think perhaps what was being discussed was herbicide residue, rather
than taste...

You started on sweet corn (calling it a vegetable), when the vast
majority of corn worldwide is dent corn that must be processed
for human consumption.

Principally, your vagueness about corn. You don't know jack shit
about it, yet you're willing to open your yap endlessly about it.

You snipped too much. I didn't mean to say that fresh, frozen and
canned corn taste the same.

I wonder how much Roundup is in your corn -canned, frozen or fresh-
assuming you don't buy organic.

(I know you don't care, because you can't see the Roundup.)

Yes. I thought corn was often genetically modified so it can handle
Roundup application.

I never said "sweet corn". Also:

"Technically, corn is a grain. Nutritionally, it's more like a starchy
vegetable. It can get a little cloudy, because the USDA counts corn on
the cob and corn kernels as a vegetable, but products made from corn,
like popcorn and corn tortillas, are considered a grain."

I'm only still talking about it because of you.

Do you have shares in corn or something? You're extremely defensive
about it.

The master is only interested in the effects on folks butt odor.
Some types of corn produces unacceptable flatulence for the fine
doctor.
