New Moon Reviews FLYING In: Movie Critiqued Hours After Debut
Commented Nov 20, 2009 at 15:27:30 in Entertainment
“I think it would be in the best interest of men who have wives and girlfriends who are into this book series to take note.
This book series is popular with not just teens, but for many women because it turns women on! It may be silly , but for some reason, this book series has told a badly written tale that does something to the psyche of millions of females. It somehow hits the heartstrings of females young and old.
if i were a man, I would take note and use this information to my advantage!”

“A man shouldn't take note, he should find a new girlfriend or wife. Real women would never be turned on by poorly written drivel who's target audience are teens/ tweens. This poor excuse for a "novel" speaks to the lonely and desperate.”

“Women and girls only like this book series because it depicts the kind of fantasy relationship that simply doesn't exist between the two sexes.”

“I completely agree. My wife loves this stuff; it grates on my nerves, but I learned to make it work for me. Just last week I made her breakfast in bed and put it in a New Moon lunchbox. I got points for being romantic, and in a way, I got to express how incredibly juvenile I think the whole thing is. And I was thanked profusely. Thanks, Edward!”

“We currently pay1/3 of the cost of our health insurance, the employer pays 2/3. the total monthly cost is $1250.00 a month for 3 healthy people. Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO. We have to go to their providers. 1000.00 deductible per person. it is a very crappy policy.
this figures out to 15000.00 each year for health insurance.
Is this plan going to cost us more than this?
What happens if you cannot afford the premiums?
what happens to all of the unemployed who have no insurance?
I am so confused and dissapointed with our government, It is for Big Business at the expense of the people.”

“I do not think non- white people comprehend the level of racism whites express and allow other whites to express when there are no other races within hearing distance, and they feel comfortable.
Education and financial status does not destroy the racist views, as can be seen by the above article.If these people feel they are in same-thinking company, they will let go with their true "white is better" feelings.”

“No Child Left Behind requires student to pass a nationwide exam in order to graduate. You can pass all of your classes, never fail any class, but if you flunk the national test, you cannot get diploma. I believe you can take the test three times.
If a student knows they cannot score well on this one exam, they drop out because they know they have no chance of getting a diploma.
Schools want these kids to drop out because their low test scores make the school look bad in national standards.”

“There is no national test. NCLB assesses schools, not children.
If a school doesn't meet NCLB standards for 3 years, it is placed in a "school improvement program", which could eventually lead to a takeover and restructuring by its state, not by the feds.
Most states seem to have a high school exit exam of some sort, which typically seem to be a tthe 8th grade level, but it is not a nationwide NCLB test.
I agree though, NCLB is a horrible program.”

“That is just plain incorrect.
There is no nationwide exam. NCLB judges schools, not children.
If a school doesn't meet NCLB standards 3 times, it is placed in a school improvement process, eventually qualifying for STATE takeover and forced restructuring. Not Federal.
But, yes, NCLB is a ridiculous program, which was, unfortunately for those who want to blame it entirely on repugs, co-sponsored by Edward Kennedy. A blot on his record.”

Give me a break, NCLB is a joke but nobody that tries 25% of the time in High School can possibly fail that test.
You have to work hard to fail high school.”

Jobs are gone, pensions and savings are gone, credit is ruined, and health insurance and social security are probably not going to be there .
The American Dream has been stolen from my family. We played by the rules and I do not want one more cent of my money spent for Wall Street, banks, industries,insurance companies or anyone else who is only interested in how much more money they can suck out out of our veins.
The citizens of this country are more important than any business. Usury is illegal and immoral. I do not see anyone who is helping us.”

“Well said.
The irony of the 7 year reporting rule, is there is little immediate incentive for the debtor to fix their situation, once the bad information has been reported. At this point, the debtor is almost better off claiming bankruptcy, than attempting to fix it on their own.
