MIA HAS BEEN FOUND!

Thank you so much to everyone who helped, even just through RTs and reblogs. :)

FOUND!!!!! Thank you so much to everyone who helped, even if it was just through RTs and reblogs. ….. This is Mia. She’s completely white with yellow eyes, but she’s not a pedigree cat. She’s four but very small so looks much younger, and she’s not used to being outside so she’s likely to be nervous. She has a very high-pitched, squeaky meow and was last seen on Saturday 10th September 2011 jumping out of a van at the disused building on Stafford Street in Crewe which has a for sale sign outside and a poster of her on the door. She then ran downhill towards the houses.She lives 60 miles away in Lancashire, and has never been this far from home before. She got into the furniture van by mistake, and we miss her very much. A reward will be given for her safe return. Thank you.

RIP Amy Winehouse. So talented, such a shame. :(

“I enjoyed the reading classes, and the opportunity to function as a sort of cheerleader for literature. I liked my students, who were often so eager, bright and enthusiastic that it took me a while to notice how much trouble they had in reading a fairly simple short story. Almost simultaneously, I was struck by how little attention they had been taught to pay to the language, to the actual words and sentences that a writer had used. Instead, they had been encouraged to form strong, critical and often negative opinions of geniuses who had been read with delight for centuries before they were born. They had been instructed to prosecute or defend these authors, as if in a court of law, on charges having to do with the writers’ origins, their racial, cultural and class backgrounds. They had been encouraged to rewrite the classics into the more acceptable forms that the authors might have discovered had they only shared their young critics’ level of insight, tolerance and awareness.

No wonder my students found it so stressful to read! And possibly because of the harsh judgements they felt required to make about fictional characters and their creators, they didn’t seem to like reading, which also made me worry for them and wonder why they wanted to become writers.”
