You deserve to attend a safe, fair, and well-run school.

For anyone who has ever complained about Atlantic City High School in a facebook status: School/District employees aren't your facebook friends and (although it expresess your emotion) isn't effective.

There will be an important meeting of the Brigantine Board of Ed. this Thursday (Jan. 28) @ 6:00pm in the Brigantine North School Library. Also, if you can, attend the ACHS Board of Ed meeting tomorrow (Wed. 1/27) @ 6:00 in the Citi-Center building (1300 Atlantic Ave. 5th/6th floor). You deserve to attend a safe, fair, and well-run school.

Turkey (and Minister Davutoglu) is right....

....They shouldn't have to "tolerate Israel's humanitarian tragedies".

And to please the usual finger-pointers....

P.S. -- "Distraction" or not (it's not) is Stephanie Gutmann distracted from the facts about this temporary medical aid camp, excuse me, "distraction"? See below.

  • Israel has voluntarily (similar to their involvement with this crisis) offered to keep this camp open for twice as long as originally planned. (They'll be there for at least another month)
  • It has been confirmed that over 300 patients have recieved life-saving medical attention.
  • Other facilities have been reffering patients with more severe injuries from the quake to Israel's facility.
  • Thanks to the facility's mobility, they were able to get right to work. (8 hours upon landing in Haiti)
  • Oh and hey Turkey: Remember that 7.6-mag earthquake you had in 1999? Yeah...The one that killed 17,000 of your civilians? The same camp that you claim is a "distraction" to Israel's current issues, was there.
....You're welcome.
....And thanks for the kind words.

Sincerely,

A guy that supports distractions that save thousands of lives.
