last sentence of said paragraph and page.
Do the courts only rule and address complaints [i]as worded[/i]. IE: LITERALLY. Was the question reimbursement? Or was it did the school [i]reasonably accommodate?[/i] If the school [d]did reasonably accommodate, was reimbursement owed?
If the school does "reasonably accomodate", does reasonable accommodation necessarily = safe environment?
In my case, (my son), the answer would be "no". Therefore, my son is "homebound". Is it the obligation of the state to provide my son with an education? [b][i]Irregardless[/i][/b] [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/tongue.gif[/img] of where he is schooled under such circumstances (homebound)?
[i]Bunny Hop?[/i]
I do not know the facts at hand regarding anything I have mentioned in this post. Let alone if the state is responsible for providing my child with an education. Or if it is indeed possible to provide a safe environment at school, reasonably accommodate, and not infringe on others rights. All at the same time.

What does this have to do with Cookie Recipes??
What?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Sorry, this bunny is all hopped out.
I can't figure it this time MB. [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/redface.gif[/img]
Heck, I'm surprised I found it.
MB,
Not only are you going to make them guess at it, you are going to make them search for the answer?
Oh boy!!
p.s. I was really hoping for a good cookie recipe!! [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/biggrin.gif[/img] LOL

OK. I'll break it down a bit. [img]/peanut/boards/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif[/img]
first question:
"Do the courts only rule and address complaints as worded. IE: LITERALLY."
In other words:
When a judge, for instance, makes a verdict, or a jury makes a verdict, do they only answer the complaint addressed in the petition or complaint by the plaintiff? Or do they "read into it" and answer what they think it is addressing?

doesn't it eventually make sense? [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/tongue.gif[/img]
PS..... if you want a good cookie recipie, you will have to go to the Thomas thing. Ever have sweet fillo stuffed with vanilla custard and mounded in powdered sugar?

Not in Canada. I don't think in the states either. I read over some of the Oregon case, and it sounds like the judge looked at *bigger picture* not just literal.
They (judge and jury) also bring *personal life lessons* into decisions. What I mean is they hear/see evidence but they also consider what type of action/reaction would be normal [i]based on their own life lessons[/i]. I know there's a proper legal term for this, but I've been taking care of a sick bear for a few days - it's early - suffering brain mush (again [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/redface.gif[/img] ). Also, don't know if this relates to what we're discussing. [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/rolleyes.gif[/img]

I believe both Canada and US governments are obligated to provide education to all children. [b]However[/b], if parents chose not to accept the education offered, the governments are not obligated to provide (financially or otherwise) an alternate education. If you [i]chose[/i] to put your child in a private school (e.g. religion) it is not the obligation of the government to pay for that education.
Health issues might make a difference.
[b]However[/b], for my son I have accident insurance. If he is unable to attend school due to an accident and a tutor must be hired it would be paid for [b]by the insurance company[/b], not the government. I've never actually looked in to this law, but, if the government would pay for it, why would the insurance company [b]willingly[/b] take on the expense????
[i]Am I hopping on the right trail yet?[/i]
As for the links - I'll have to check later. Promised I'd pay Monopoly Jr. (and I haven't even made it to OT yet [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/frown.gif[/img] ).
Codyman: all will be revealed (she says swaying back and forth in the smokey mist).
e-mom: what kind of cookies do you like?
OK, I checked the links. Found the first one very interesting. Noted a common theme. Those who hired a lawyer tended to get results they were probably happier with. (Except the people who dropped the case after spending $16,000 [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/eek.gif[/img] )
MB, I'm still not sure where we are going here. (Or what it has to do with cookies [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/tongue.gif[/img] )
AnnaMarie:
Disclaimer: The following is not advice in any manner or form. I could be completely wrong.
Personally???
Did not the judge address only the question I could see asked? (Even ifmore question were actually asked in attempts to clarify?):
Did the school reasonably accommodate? If they did, is money owed to the parents based on accommodation?
Should the question have been different?
Is there a question that might have more appropriately addressed the issue of reimbursement?
Did the judge actually "read" more into it, really?
PS: Are judges [i]supposed[/i] to bring their own personals to the table? Do we screen juries for the same? [b]ie: bias.[/b] Isn't that where the "ethics" come in? Impartiality? Isn't it supposed to be a "Solomon thing"? Not sure if I saw bias or lack of impartiality.
I'm totally confused here. I'm making cookies this morning and thought I might find a new recipe here. But I don't think I'm the only one who is confused [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
MB - very thought provoking. My previous answer was *in general* not specific. (And also, my own opinion, which I don't have time to explain right now.)
I'm off to the doctor with the little bear. I'll think about this, and try to answer later today.

The stove is hot and ready to bake. Just need to toss the pot holder and most likely the bunny will hop right out. Probably means another "Leo" in the household. [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/biggrin.gif[/img] Do you think we can handle 3 or 4?

Hmmm! I have to admit, I haven't re-looked at all of them. But what I did look at, basically are synopsis. I don't see a clear question followed by a clear answer.
Or am I looking in the wrong place? Are you talking about the Oregon case? or the links you put in this thread?
As for, "bringing their own personals", I still say yes. When you sit on a jury (i.e. in judgement of one of your peers) you do take your own *personals* with you. Without them, you have no morals.
[i]Ooops! I said the *m* word[/i]
For example: murder isn't always murder. sometimes it's self-defence. or temporary insanity.
You make a moral judgement based on what you hear, what you see, what you believe or disbelieve, and what your previous life has taught you.
QUESTION: What kind of court hears these cases (like the Oregon case, or the links you posted)? Do these courts deal only with education, or what?
AnnaMarie,
I disagree.
Personals and Morals are separate.
At least for me they are.
My morals were not "learned".
Personals are bias, IMPO. They inhibit "third person" ability.
Yes, I am not talking about the links. [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/biggrin.gif[/img]
Now I didn't really check out any of the links, but I did read the posts and still can't quite get the link between cookie recipes and the school topic.
So, being the simpleton that I am, I thought I better get a cookie to make myself feel better because I really didn't understand how anything in this thread related to cookies. However, Mommabear always posts in her own quirky way, which is kind of unique, so when I DO get it, I feel impressed with myself.
However, I don't get it so I'm off in search of a good cookie because I'm feeling like quite the dummy right now. It will make be feel better. Off course, that's my usual Polyanna self.

I'll have to check out that thread.
Think I'll skip this thread from now on, as you like to ramble when you talk/type and don't answer someones question but rather refer them to yet another link!!

Hey - you want me to including frosting and icing recipes in this thread too? Or would it be better in another thread. You guys choose! Here might be better though, because then these cookie recipes could have the frosting/icing recipes right beside them!

Personally? Rather just eat it out of the bowl, although, cookies do serve as a good item to lick it off of, though.
Promise it won't be lumpy frosting?

[b]Perfect Double Agent Sugar Cookies[/b]
1
mouser: awesome thread! those double agent cookies sound awesome. can't wait to try those. i have a few recipes to share also:
Joey's Favorite Soft Sugar Cookies for Decorating:
3 cups all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
icing:
1 box (one pound) confect/powdered sugar
3 tbsp meringue powder (wilton brand)
6-7 tbsp cold water
paste food coloring
heat oven to 350 degrees. combine flour and baking powder in a bowl. beat butter and sugar in a large bowl until creamy. beat in egg and vanilla. add dry ingredients to the creamed mixture and beat. divide the dough in half and roll each out on a floured surface. i roll my dough out extra thick, for softer cookies. cut out shapes and transfer to ungreased cookie sheets. bake 8-10 minutes; do not overbake (imo, crunchy hard sugar cookies are not yummy). cool on racks. combine icing ingredients in mixing bowl and beat for 5 minutes until thick and smooth. add up to one tbsp more water if necessary for piping consistency. thin even more for painting on the icing or for spreading. my girls like to paint on the decor with paintbrushes we keep in the utensil drawer for this project. let icing dry 20 minutes before piping on edges or adding any more icing details.
here's another:
snickerdoodles (snickers brings up bad images for me....peanut, you know.....if there wasn't already a double agent cookie we could call these double-agent-doodles. that has a nice ring to it. how 'bout we settle on calling these doodle cookies?)
Doodle Cookies:
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup shortening
2 eggs
2 3/4 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
heat oven to 400 degrees. mix 1 1/2 cups of the sugar, butter, shortening, and eggs. stir in flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt. shape into 1 1/4 inch balls. mix 1/4 cup of the sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl. roll each dough ball into the cinnamon sugar mixture. place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. bake 8-10 minutes or until set. cool. (my nieces always roll these in colored sugar/cinnamon mixture at the holidays...some red, some green. i prefer to use just plain sugar and cinnamon). yummy either way.
Hey - company's arrived! Finally! Thanks for posting in [b]My[/b] Hi-jacked Cookie Recipe thread....
Here's a personal favorite:

[b]Sugar Cookies For Nomadic Woman[/b]
(don't bother to unpack all those utensils - a bowl, mixer and cookie sheet will do)
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
pinch salt
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
granulated sugar, colored if desired
1 Beat butter and shortening together with an electric mixer.
2 Add sugar, baking powder and a pinch of salt.
3 Beat until well combined, scraping bowl (if a spoon is handy, use it, otherwise your finger will do)
4 Beat in egg and vanilla then as much flour as you can with the electric mixer.
5 Stir in the remaining flour. (Guess a spoon really is best)
6 Cover and chill for 1 to 3 hours;
7 Finish Packing for move.

Mouser,
Does it really matter what [i]kind[/i] of sugar or icing I use?

I disagree.
Personals and Morals are separate.
At least for me they are.
My morals were not "learned".
Personals are bias, IMPO. They inhibit "third person" ability.
Yes, I am not talking about the links. [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/biggrin.gif[/img]

Hey, MB........you disagree with me? Again?
[i]And yet, I don't feel offended....go figure[/i]
Thanks for all the cookie recipes. Nobody would tell me what kind they wanted either. So Mouser, I really like *drop cookies*. Got any to share?
Now, I have two sick kids here, one climbing all over me, so gotta run.

[b] [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/tongue.gif[/img] Have I got cookie recipes!
Name your preference and I promise to post at least 3 variations for your reading pleasure here - in this thread.[/b]
This is too funny!
How 'bout a "Conspiracy Theory" cookie recipe?
Or maybe a "Hit and Run" recipe where you won't give all the ingredients?
Complete post edited out - I used three letters, a short form for a swear word expression, if you will. I can't be bothered trying to find out exactly where in my post (which would be long winded) the offending three letters were, so I'm blipping the whole post.
Not that important.

Jesse and his Father, upon seeing that their Mother and wife (respectively) had fallen off her chair in the computer room and was rolling around laughing, which is something she NEVER does (she does laugh, but usually doesn't fall off the computer chair as well) came in to see what was going on.
Jesse liked the NaNaNaNaBooBoo cookie! [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img] and there was much uproarious laughter from him as well!
Best wishes! [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]

I should post my [i]"Pumpkin Pie"[/i] recipie. Best made in the morning. [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/tongue.gif[/img]
my kids are enjoying this too...i laughed until late, late, late reading these recipes (mostly the names!). this morning i was chuckling still and bryce said, "is it still those cookies, mom?" [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
I hope someone has a recipe for some sort of light ("airy") and very sugary ("sweet") cookie... maybe a "pin wheel cookie"? We could change the name to something clever about "cart wheels" and make it a cheerleader cookie for [b]ME [/b]!
my sister was a cheerleader, i was not. i picked on her terribly about it and she always said (and still does) that i'm just jealous because i never could have been one. (and hey...she may be right. haha). she always said my payback would be having all girls (which i do) that would all turn out to be cheerleaders. guess what...they ALL three want to be cheerleaders and their aunt is so proud! [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img] i'm trying to be a supportive mother...you should see me trying to act all excited about it. it's too funny. cartwheel cookies would be a great addition to the recipe collection...... we could have some "cartwheel wannabe's" for me! [img]http://uumor.pair.com/nutalle2/peanutallergy/smile.gif[/img]
oh...forgot...now that i've found out i have been formally diagnosed (by an expert) as "neurologically typical" (a diagnosis i would certainly beg to differ with, haha)...maybe we could have some "NT newtons" or something like that......mouser....any ideas?
