No, it's perfectly feasible to home-school pre-K aged children and prepare them academically for kindergarten. I know because I'm doing it. We do a reggio based program along with drilling work (phonics, puzzles, critical thinking, addition/subtraction (math skills), rhyme awareness, mazes, etc). So 20 minutes of…

Well, Miss America doles out a lot of money for college scholarships, and believe it or not, quite a few women in media and entertainment got their start on the pageant circuit. Like, I know Dianna Sawyer was a "Junior Miss." Where would Vanessa Williams be without Miss America and Penthouse? The one, white Miss…

"whitejezebel" wasn't referring to the tweet itself as racist. She said that the Jez's lack of outrage for the tweet is what's racist.

I think you missed the memo about how every choice a woman makes is feminist because a woman is making it. You know, just like when female elected officials restrict women's reproductive rights and what not. That too is a feminist decision (sarcasm). I think most of these replies to you go beyond reaching, btw.

It's far easier to be "huge" and get opportunities in Hollywood when you're white. Plus, JL wasn't the only white actress that KW was compared to. There was this whole other sentence in Dodai's article . . .

Well, I know that Duplo has at least one. I took a picture of her in my kitchen for you. I bought my wards the duplo tech machine set for Christmas, and most of the mini-figs were figs of color.

"There's no "good" way for everyone. Maybe switching it up is the answer, so everyone gets what they want some of the time?"

LOL, only if she doesn't renew her contract.

I know Beyonce's touring this summer, but it feels as if all of these high profile promo opportunities are pointless without new music. She didn't need to perform at the Superbowl to promote her tour. Tickets would have sold regardless, but the Superbowl would have been a wonderful opportunity to kick off a new era…

Unless Edith finds a suitable bachelor that isn't married, then I don't see her being too happy. I read on HuffPo how they've already cast Mary's new beau for the fourth season, so she won't be single for long.

Not you turning this into a social justice issue. Honestly, who cares if people judge smokers for smoking? It's a nasty, unnecessary, deadly habit. Saying that celebs photographed with cigarettes shouldn't be idolized is one thing, but what's stupid about "Adelle1024's" comment is the assertion that since Miley…

This. People need to stop pretending like this chick has any power, like she's some supermodel who can call shots. SI swimsuit is like the only high profile campaign she gets a year. Practically all the other pics of her that make the AP newswire are of her on her fiancee's arm.

Oh yeah, she's such a conscious, bad-ass liberal

The kids would be rewarded by default by virtue of not being scolded or punished for bad behavior. Positive reinforcement doesn't necessarily equal material incentives. It can be as simple as receiving praise for their actions. Little kids live for praise from the adults. I'm raising toddlers. Whenever they behave…

Oh, such a witty and detailed response. I can't remember the last time I read such a well pondered, thorough critique.

I see you stanning for Queen Robyn in your avi. Here's to hoping that she makes the "Navy" proud with flawless vocals at the Grammys. Cheers!

Yeah, I'm with "ligirl92." How so? I can see how you might be pressed over Taylor, but Carrie Underwood isn't really a polarizing singer.

You have to take into account the resistance level that the elliptical is set on vs the speed and incline level of the treadmill settings. I don't know what the metric or rubric is to compare the two. I use the elliptical machine three days a week because of the lower resistance on my knees (and run twice a week),…

OMG, you read my mind!

No, that's not true. Running a mile would burn more calories than walking a mile. You expend more energy running than walking. So, you burn more calories. What's debatable is whether or not those extra calories you burn running (vs. walking) are negligible if weight loss if your goal.
