Not to mention this dumb shit kid pulled out a BB gun.

If it makes you feel better, I lived in NH for the first 41 years of my life and I’ve never had a tick on me! My husband on the other hand seems to pick them up every time he does yard work. 😆 You can explore here safely with a few precautions (the permethrin isn’t necessary just peace of mind if you were planning lots of woods time) and one thing to know is that if ticks do get on you, they don’t bite right away and once they do they need to be attached for 24 hours to transmit most disease (so you have plenty of time to flick them off). Enjoy yourselves!

> They also asked the city to bring interpreters to Thursday’s meeting, but the board denied it. The organizations found their own.

That's your indicator for what the board wants. Keep the locals in the dark so they can approve it over their heads... Fuck's sake.

I teach, and I don't really have any real desire to leave my current district, but the question that is begging to be asked: What are you looking to assure in salary and benefits to staff members?

Oh yeah, I'm sure. And even capped landfills do smell. But the smell of concrete and asphalt production is VERY distinct if you know it.

Absolutely agree Littleton has tons to see, do and eat/drink. Great breakfast at The Coffee Pot or Littleton Diner.

Thank you, your support is deeply appreciated!

Good question, thank you for asking. Right now, I am the funder. I am fortunate that I have some available capital to spend on start up. I don't think it's fair to ask people to invest their time in bringing this to life for free, unless they share the same passion and fulfillment that I do and are okay without a paycheck. One of the two specific folks that I am looking for is someone with a business background because I am not well versed in the funding aspect of running a non-profit. So, nothing is set in stone right now, but I am willing to put my money where my mouth is to make it happen!

Knowles Tree Service in N. Hampton. As someone mentioned above do a mix of “super loam” (better than just “loam” much cleaner) and compost. They should have both. If no compost there, lots of landscaping outlets offer bagged compost and anybody there could help you pick a good one. You will not need a lot of compost, use super loam for 90%+ of your base. Mix in 1-2 bags of compost per bed. (7yrs of landscape experience)

Great questions! Thank you for asking them!

Why do I want to start this school: First, I feel like education is the most promising way to improve the way our country and world is right now. Second, I believe that the public education system is outdated and slow moving. While I believe that kids need foundational information, the idea that "you won't always have a calculator in your pocket" just isn't true. I believe children will best benefit from education that teaches them how to learn, how to think and problem solve, life skills, cooperation and productive debate etc. Third, I believe that children learn best from active engagement in the learning process and through subject matters that interest them. When you look at children from birth to 3, they learn how to walk, talk, eat, identify some basic shapes, etc. without any formal education. Also, as adults, we learn when we are engaged with things that interest us. I don't believe that system goes offline for the period of time we've determined as a period of formal education, and so I think it's important to continue to engage children in that way. Finally, I believe our public school options struggle to meet each student where they are at. There are families whose children need unique supports who have to fight an uphill battle to get the needed supports. There are kids that are gifted with high book intelligence that are not getting challenged. I believe that we can be more flexible to better meet the needs of individual students.

What Gap in my community: There are limited options for more flexible learning opportunities. There are a handful of private schools that are religious or college prep options, but I think there is a third category that fits well for some kids that we are lacking. The schools that are available are less continuous as well. There are some that are K-2, K-4, etc. I feel that it would be good for some kids to have a school that they can stay with throughout their early and middle education, and then take advantage of the natural high school transition point.

Background: I do not have a background in Educational Leadership. This is why I am looking specifically for a partner with an Education background. My background is in Marriage and Family Therapy and I spent the last 10 years working with kids and teens, often in the school system, whether supporting them in the classroom or school itself, or working with the family and school during IEP meetings etc. I believe that I have a vision that is of good quality, but I am able to recognize that I have some significant gaps and I cannot get this off the ground without having other people to fill those gaps.

I hope I answered your questions, please feel free to ask follow up questions or reach out to me directly!

The officer did a good job 👏🏽

Do you know anyone who has horses?

Sweet, is this at the dpw building?

EDIT: nevermind, it's at the wwtf

I live in Madison. You're gonna need your spikes, I'm almost positive if you're going to do anything with any elevation. Aldo prepare for lots of mud. Everything is melting but it's still cold at night. Have fun!

Oh now the UL won’t post a photo

Yikes 😳 that's shitty

Why is it so hard for some people to not be huge pieces of shit?

Yes. We measure distance in time. 100 in NH, VT is like 3 hours + driving.

Where’s his pic? We need to see the face of these lowlifes.

It’s definitely Pike/Carroll, the dump before the City installed the waste gas burners was 30X worse ( I mean like get out of you car and start heaving on the worst days).

More private schools is always a good thing.

Capitalism is not a model for learning - that is what this kind of competition is. Schools shouldn't have to compete with each other - ALL KIDS SHOULD HAVE EQUAL ACCESS TO EQUALLY GOOD EDUCATION REGARDLESS OF WHERE THEY LIVE OR INCOME.

And no school should have the right to ban literature and impose religious beliefs or practices. That's what private and charter schools give unprecedented room for.

Maybe if anyone had ever TRIED to improve the education system instead of immediately trying to treat it apart with unnecessary options that aren't accessible to everyone, the government WOULD have done better. But I guess people with money to drive their kids across districts, board them elsewhere or just pay it out of pocket don't want the"poors" to ACTUALLY be able to compete in the world. Someone has to clean toilets so why bother giving them equal opportunities, right? 🙄

1000% agree, DEET is awesome, just keep it away from plastic. Mosquitos are generally the most annoying but black flies can suck too. Ticks aren't immediately annoying but are more dangerous because deer ticks can carry Lyme disease. Do a tick check every night, especially the underarms, groin, neck, and butt cheeks, they like to hang out where it's warm. When I was a Boy Scout, my tent-mate and I would check each other's backs bc it's hard to reach.

"Police started a pursuit, but they ended it soon after because the car was being driven at a dangerous speed, police said."

He did get away, should have stayed away, LOL Then claim he loaned out his car, it was taken by unauthorized person, he didn't realize until the next day, etc. But no.... he kept trying to get caught, and did, LOL

It is super muddy everywhere here. And we just had an avalanche bury someone last week on Mt Washington, so be wary of where you go hiking. Of you don't mind the mud and are a conscientious hiker, you should be fine.
