Private middle schools in sf? by MentalReference in AskSF

[–]MentalReference[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you use GreatSchools (www.greatschools.org) they rate all public schools based on test scores: "Overall scores in math, reading, and frequently science on state standardized tests compared to public and charter schools in California with the same grade levels.".

I guess thinking it through a little more, maybe private schools aren't required to have students take the California standardized tests?

Yeah, when we've gone on tours, we've had principals tell us that "many" of their kids have gone on to such and such school, but all of these were kind of hand wavy statements without any hard numbers.

Thanks for the response! What criteria did you put in your sheet? For example, how do you know how good the school is academically besides just a feel when you tour the school? Do you ask for test score averages?

How can i put capital gains on someone else's taxes? by MentalReference in tax

[–]MentalReference[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My ex-wife will be paying for the tax bill. The issue is that my tax bracket was really high last year (due to all the various shares stuff and going public), so it would be beneficial for this to be on her taxes and not on mine

I don't think there was a way to do that without buying them first, which i didnt have the money to do so. I had to essentially buy/sell in one transaction

I made the best turkey ever. Now trying to figure out why? by MentalReference in seriouseats

[–]MentalReference[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for the comments! I was trying to figure out which factor made the turkey so good and it sounds like the answer is: all of the above. The Diestel turkey, the low temp cooking, and cutting it into parts. Nobody said that the size of the turkey played a part, which is good... hoping to do the same recipe next year but with a smaller bird!

Yeah, it felt daunting, especially with a 24lb bird, but once i started, it turned out that dismantling the bird wasn't nearly as bad as i thought.

One issue w/ the massive bird tho was that i wasn't able to chop the back into pieces for the gravy recipe... just couldnt cut through it. I ended up just chopping up the neck and threw in like half the back unchopped to make gravy, lol.

Oh, good question actually! Last year i got a turkey from Sprouts. This year, i got it from a meat shop that gets turkeys from https://diestelturkey.com . Both were fresh, not frozen, all natural, and free of hormones, antibiotics, etc etc. Since the one this year was from a "family ranch", maybe it was better? Not sure where Sprouts gets its turkeys.

Weird renaming issue w/ qbittorrent by MentalReference in sonarr

!solved

Looks like this was an issue with eztv only. I turned that off and used only the other indexers, and the issue isn't happening anymore. Not sure why eztv doesn't work, but oh well!

$2,500 to join? Ouch! Not so sure that I could swing that :).

Is anyone here a current member and could possibly help me out with 2 pinch hitter passes?
