How High SAT Scores Are Linked to Family Income

[desrt]

"The College Board will announce sweeping changes to the SAT exam later today as well as new opportunities for students. While some question the overall value of the high-stakes exam, there is also mounting criticism as to whether students who can afford expensive SAT test preparation courses have an unfair advantage, especially given a strong correlation between family income level and test results."

How do we fix it, or is it broken?

There's nothing wrong with mustard greens either.

Sm.... if a guy shows you his high school wrestling singlets, its time to run.

I had a boyfriend who called his skoal "cha" with the a sound drawn out really long.  I think that was the red neck way of saying "chew"  but because he was cute, was trying to overlook things like this.  But then . . .he showed me  all his singlets from when he wrestled in high school hanging up in a row in his closet (he was 30) that I realized one should not overlook things.

Collard Greens Basics

Move over, kale; the collard greens are coming. Collards are a staple in many Southern dishes and add healthy nutrients to any meal. Traditionally, collards are paired with ham hocks and other pork for flavor and richness, but we have plenty of delicious vegetarian options.

“I thought Skoal was more of a choice for the 1%ers. What ever happened to Redman or Levi Garret?”

Yes, a lot people think that Skoal and "Corked Wine" is to good for us.
This is the typical Stereotyping we face daily. If someone references Watermelon or Chicken when talking about African Americans (or whatever the latest P.C. term is used today) they would be referred to as being demonized. But there is New Day acumen when we will be judged by our Character and not by The Color of our Necks. I see a day when The ACLU will join us in our fight to be free of this discrimination, a day when we can fly our Confederate Flags proud because it is a symbol of out Heritage not Racism, and our own Redneck History Month. A month of 24/7 NASCAR, History of Moonshine Documentaries, Documentaries on The Invention of Wine in Box, and Duck Dynasty.

I thought Skoal was more of a choice for the 1%ers. What ever happened to Redman or Levi Garret? At least most new vehicles now come with a spit cup holder.
