smell test
I can tell when the teacher has hugged my kid because she smells like the perfume the teacher wears.
A school day is long. Better the teacher is kind to your child than mean (and there are both kinds of teachers.)
oh yea don't forget the smegma smell
HAHAHAHA
I don't know what WASl test is but if it is anything like the TAKS test in Texas - then more powe
I hate standardized testing. I hate the way it is pushed and it is the only thing teachers 'preach' on the whole school year. Math and Reading is the big ones here until 5th grade and then science gets added in. Where is history? Where is grammar (no this is not included in the reading test)? Forget these stupid state standardized testing and get back to what is important.... an education!
Lets test the one giving the drug test, and (see message)
Lets make people who need to buy groceries take drug tests. Want to go to McDonalds? Hey need to take a drug test first. Need to renew your car registration - take a drug test. Want to go to a movie, better take a drug test. When will the insanity stop.
Ask before you test..
Just ask before you test if they are willing to pay you X amount if you test well. If they say no, don't bother testing. Good luck!

They don't usually test to put them in certain classes. sm
Sometimes in high school it is a matter of making a schedule work and classes work around students to make a full class, etc. So that may or may not be why she was put in this class. I believe too much is expected out of kids these days and I say let her out of the class or at the least talk to the counselor about her issues. I believe in Physics class it helps a lot to have the other classes first. Otherwise, she would be really lost and it sounds like she might be.
Test Message
This is my test message.
pregancy test then I was in
My MIL thought I was ridiculous wearing maternitiy clothes at 7 weeks, but I was not going to squeeze into my clothes out of vanity. I bloated, barfed and gained 50 pounds, and afterwards lost all the weight and fit into my old clothes just fine. Enjoy being pregnant. Take a nap and eat ice cream!
I read it is an excellent test, but
I also heard it really smarts.
I was not aware this was a test question. SM
I answered honestly. I am sorry it was not to your liking. If you want me to agree with you, okay, your ex is nuts and call the police on him. Whatever.
Just remember one thing, troubled people tend to gravatate toward each other in life. Think about it.
Did they do an MRI of her adrenals yet? Test her for Lyme? Our kid
s
We should use them as test subjects for medication and
I guarantee you start doing some tough punishment and there would be less of that crap going on.
I think they are pretty worthless and not really an IQ test because sm
if you have ever had a Wechsler, you know that those kinds of questions don't play into it. They are mind teasers and trick questions, not something that a Wechsler uses. A Wechsler is several hours long and goes through your math, language, spacial relations and problem solving skills, and it is timed. Part of IQ is how fast you can solve complex problems.
I have taken a Wechsler and while I won't quote you a number, I will say the person who gave it as part of a psychological evaluation, told me he would diagnose me as way too smart for my own good. He stated that I probably didn't suffer fools gladly because I view most of the world as fools. I only fall at the 99.6 percentile on the Bell curve. No, I don't suffer fools gladly, but I try to be nice while others catch up.
Can we drug-test the Senators too?
I don't think connecting unemployment benefits to drug-testing is a good idea. In fact, I don't think drug testing should be random at all. I think it should be reserved for cases that are on a need-to-know basis. And no, I have never used drugs, never tried them. It's a matter of civil liberties and constitutional rights against invasions of our privacy. Next thing you know, they'll be testing us for lipid levels after we're seen frequenting a house of trans-fats.
And while we're on the topic, decriminalizing drugs would go a long way toward reducing drug-related crimes. Nothing is perfect in this discussion though because drugs really are evil. It just becomes a matter of damage control.
They want to make sure that the baby they test for paternity is
actually Anna Nicole's baby and not another baby that is brought and tested for paternity. If someone were to "switch" babies for paternity tetsing only, then Larry Birkhead would be shown as "not the father," so they want to make sure that the baby tested is actualyl Anna Nicole's and that is why they need her DNA.
Criteron-Referenced Comptency Test....sm
and while theoretically kids that do not pass it in the 3rd, 5th and 8th grades will not be passed, in reality very few are truly held back. That's because the schools get "waivers" for those that fail for various reasons, send them to summer school or any reason they can find to pass them anyway.
Schools and the CRCT test inquiry...sm
Out of curiosity here.... in the area you live in, do your schools basically become just a babysitting facility after the CRCTs are administered until the last day of school? I've been through CRCT testing with my children now for 5 years and the minute they finish those tests, from that day on until the last day of school they're watching movies, spending more play time, etc. at school & very little actual school work. It's like the schools are busy teaching the CRCT criteria and once the testing is completed they don't do diddly squat for the last month of school.
What about in your area?
Update on kids' hepatitis test
Had a great vacation. Never crossed my mind the whole week. I took my kids in to the doctor on Monday afternoon and got the test and of course, still do not have the results. It is driving me crazy. I keep doing all these reports on patients with hep B and hep C and my heart just sinks and I feel sick at my stomach! I called the office yesterday and today and still no results back from the lab. On Monday, the doctor did say my daughter would probably be sick by now (will be 8 on Monday), but he is a pediatrician and I know that is not exactly right. My husband has pretty major anxiety issues and that made him feel so much better to hear the doctor say that, so I have just kept my mouth shut about how worried I am and talked to my best friend about it. I did one report and the man was 40 yo and had a remote hx of IV drug use 11 years ago and the only way they found it was through routine lab tests, no symptoms, no signs, not even any past medical history, so I know it still could be that there are just no signs yet. I am trying to stay positive though! I know God gave us these babies for a reason. Just hope the nurse calls me tomorrow with good news!
That is a good idea--take it for a test drive. ;-) nm

Does it matter what time of day you take a pregnancy test??/
i've read that morning time is the best, but does it really matter? i'm 37, had a tubal after my second pregnancy six years ago. i'm a week and a half late. i've never been this late before. i figured i'd start with taking a home pregnancy test first. i'm anxious to take it and don't want to wait until tomorrow, but heard morning time was the best time.
thanks
Have you see a cardiologist? A tilt table test should
My daughter has this and has had a pacemaker since age 15.
Have the spells been occurring more frequently? Please consider seeing a cardiologist as a first step, at least. Good luck to you.
I can smell it now
Food= Prune cake (tastes like a chocolate chip cake with pecans in it) My grandmother always made it for me I now make it for my kids and friends but it is now called ChocoChip cake.
Present= Still to this day I LOVE the coupons my daughter makes. Free baby sitter. Run your bath. Cook Supper. Clean the Kitchen. and my favorite my reusable unlimited hug coupon good for the next year. These presents are the ones that make me cry and she always seems to come up with a new coupon that has a special meaning for me.
Christmas isn't all about the money to everyone. If you dont like the way things are then start by changing them at home and you'd be surprised how far reaching those changes can be. MERRY CHRISTMAS.
I can smell those now but
which ones, if any, would I be able to have inside my home? Payday today and gonna head out later to get something sweet.
Tried it! Now they smell like cat poo.
Still, it is in improvement.
< just being silly >
Another way to get the smell out s/m
is using vinegar. My cats no longer have accidents in the house, but when they did, this worked wonders! I have one of those Bissell green machines and mix it with water. I have to make sure the litter box is cleaned daily and I also have 2 boxes. They aren't that picky on the type of litter that I get, so I'm lucky on that part.
I would definitely get some cat toys, maybe her own blanket rubbed with catnip to start with and hopefully she will start to give some respect. Maybe she wants her own bed? LOL
My son has a cat that will allow no one but him to touch her (except if she is hungry of course). She will come up and act nice, but when you pet her, she bites. We have all just learned not to mess with her as we cannot get rid of her as it would greatly upset my son.
If she is still doing it, go to the vet. The other poster is right about possible urinary tract infection, etc.
Actually, it really does not smell much at all. s/m
I also like to get the "mentholated" kind -- it makes my skin tingly!! And don't forget, the generic brands are much cheaper!!
But doesn't the FDA extensively test drugs before marketing? nm

The courts will now get their DNA test to confirm paternity and whoever the father
really is will be awarded custody. However, given the nature of this case, I am sure the Division of Family Services will be involved no matter what.
See, that's was exactly my initial response to the negative drug test. SM
I felt like relief that my son, even when faced with the temptation, resisted the urge to smoke pot with his friends. I actually congratulated my son and told him how proud I was that he hadn't been taking any drugs or smoking pot. But then I wondered if he should be punished for having a bong in his pack. He obviously didn't use it, but why did he have it?
Now I think I may lift the grounding, but set some rules about him avoiding being around the 23-year-old guy and basically having him check in with me routinely when he is out and as long as he follows the rules, then I'll trust him.
Geez, I don't think I'm going to survive the teenage years and they've only just begun! I can only hope that when my 7yo daughter reaches her teens, she will go a little easier on me!
Thanks everyone for listening and offering your advice.
You can use other primers that don't smell quite sm
as bad as Kilz. I only use Kilz in the summer when I can open the windows. It can make you pass out without good ventilation. Otherwise, I use a latex primer which works just as well although I sometimes have to use 2 coats. I agree, though, the oil-based Kilz is the best.
I had one and even descented, they smell.

Ferrets smell really bad!
You are so welcome!! I was also worried about the smell,
especially since I noticed it was also for horse manes, but it sure did help our hair. So glad it helped your little one!! :)
If you are not a smoker you will be able to smell - sm
it on him a mile away. Obviously if you smoke you won't be able to smell it, and also the odds are he will smoke too (that is if you do). If you don't smoke it is possible he is telling the truth, as for punishment for having them the obvious answer is to withhold something he loves for a couple of weeks, whether it is TV, or afterschool activities, or video games, or driving if he has a learner's permit. Good luck.
they smell chemical changes...
my friend had kept a retreiver that wandered up and when my friend got pregnant, Fancy would not part from her side until after the baby was born. My neighbor had trouble with her son and his "friends". Somehow, the bull got loose and was kept for 2 to 3 days in the front yard (we're in the country) until the fence was mended. That is when she found out he made a good watchdog; he would not let any of the "potheads" in. Anybody doing drugs was greeted with earflapping and then a charge!
vaginal smell
Has anyone had any bad smell after using K-Y jelly even after taking a shower after four hours, I mean a foul smell?
Oh, I can just smell the aroma now
I have read this and thanks so much. I have been using the drip and fussing at hubs who is usually the one to "upgrade" things around the house. I told about having the Cuban coffee the other day and yummy! I thank you for this and will print off so I can contain the information you sent. Thanks!
My kids only act out like that if they are sick - get him a strep test! Has he said his stomach hurt
My kids act terrible when they are sick - many times they have gotten in trouble and then later I find out they are sick. Both of them have had strep several times with NO SORE THROAT, NO FEVER, just stomach pain.
At least you are smooth and smell nice. LOL.

Cats are very sensitive to gas smell
It wouldn't hurt to have it checked. They always have stories on the news of how animals(cats especially) save people from gas leaks when the people had no idea there was one.
Hold on, now - not all old folks have that smell
I have an aunt who is 89 and she always smells so good, likes her really nice perfume and never a stinky. She is in 80 group. I am quickly getting to that ole folks age but I also love smelling nice although I don’t do the perfume as I love those nice shower gels.
Loss of smell and taste
Thank you so much for responding. It is bothering me somewhat as when I mentioned this to my primary care doctor he didn't seem to think it was something to be concerned with, or at least that was my impression. I will be seeing the ENT doc on Friday and hopefully I can get some answers. I guess I will have to get used to eating food and not being able to enjoy the flavor. I also read on line about smells, spoiled foods, gas fumes, etc. Thanks again and I am glad you are doing well otherwise.
Loss of taste and smell (SM)
Hello all - I was wondering if anyone on this board has ever lost their sense of taste and smell due to an upper respiratory infection and/or chronic sinusitis. This happened to me about 3 months ago and I assumed I would regain my sense of taste and smell but I haven't yet. Any suggestions as to treatment would be greatly appreciated. BTW I will be visiting an ENT specialist soon. TIA
smell of giblets cooking
My husband got a tip from Food Network this week. Don't cook the liver with the rest of the giblets. The liver is what gives off the nasty odor and makes the broth bitter. Happy Thanksgiving!
JJ says stop and smell the roses...sm
and congrats to his "cousin" for the win!
I love anything with the smell of Vanilla
I don't wear much perfume, but I love Vanilla Fields.
the urine doesn't have a smell
I don't know she has urinated until...ugh...I "feel" it when I lay down
Is there a way to get smoker's smell out of a house?
I found this amazing place to live across from the beach (the only reason I moved to where I moved) that is affordable and totally decent. Two male roommates that are totally awesome, i have already been welcomed into their family (they are cousins). The problem is they have smoked inside the condo... I asked them about it and they said they had no problem smoking outside. Two questions: Is it wrong to ask them to? and second, is there even a point if I cannot get that smell to ever go away? I REALLY am trying to look into any possibility because ive been looking for months for something EXACTLY like this, i dont think it comes available often...
Thank you for any suggestions
Then I smell something fishy here, why would the g'mother
try to take bankruptcy with such an income like that? I would be willing to say someone is trying to scam some government agency such as welfare or the like.
Love the smell of outside drying sm
Nothing better than sheets off the line, however, most newer people in the neighborhood frown on clotheslines so we go along to get along. If you live in a plat of newer homes this may be in your purchase and sales agreement - no clothes lines, etc. I sometimes will hang out seasonal items just for the day on my deck and get remarks like, "Haven't you heard of a dryer?" I really miss the smell of clean, air-drying but use the dryer with dryer sheets - not the same. Just the feel of fresh air sheets makes me sleepy, I miss that smell, nothing like it. Yes, the towels are a little rough on the line but you can use a soap with softener built in. Where I go to the beach in the summer, everyone hangs out their wash and it dries in an hour. Guess I'm old fashioned. Have to go by the current rules, some don't know what they're missing. We have a leash law so never let pets out loose, one got away one day and got hit by a car, so we are extra careful not to let our dog near the front door as you never know. Rules, rules, but things are not the same - the world is getting more and more crowded so we have to go with the flow. In the newer developments they are not even making sidewalks, so there's no place to walk, geez!
