What's on Tonight: A Debate, and a Smidgeon of Other Shows

Here are the Patch TV tips for Wednesday, Oct. 3, 2012.


Presidential Debate, 9 p.m.

Good luck a finding a channel it isn’t on. Gov. Romney and President Obama talk domestic issues. They have it broken down like this: Economy – 45 minutes; Health Care – 15 minutes; Role of Government – 15 minutes; Governing - 15 minutes. Jim Lehrer moderates.

The X Factor, 8 p.m., NBC

Boot camp! In Miami. Here’s hoping Britney adds a third facial expression to the mix.

The Middle, 8 p.m., ABC
Stellar return last week (I loved how Sue ‘went bad’), and tonight, “After being fired from the car dealership and vowing not to take any job that comes her way, Frankie goes to tech school to get a real career; Axl begins his senior year of high school; sophomore Sue mentors a freshman.”

I have discovered from researching the new “rigorous” National Common Core Standards.Read More First of all, I learned that in order for our state to receive available Federal stimulus money, state Governors and Chief State School Officers around the country were required to sign a Memo of Understanding by January 2010 promising to adopt a national common standard. I also learned that local district Superintendents and School Board Presidents were encouraged by the state to sign a similar Memo of Understanding by May 28, 2010 if they wanted their district to receive any of the money.

I have to agree with J.L. Why in the world wouldn't you talk directly to the teacher if this was anRead More issue? It is really easy to throw a screen name into the mix and complain for all of Vernon to see here on the Patch. It's time to stop perpetuating the negativity. The town council, BoE, and Dr. Conway are just starting to make some headway with education progress in Vernon, this isn't helping. Try to remember that our kids teachers are our neighbors here in Vernon and to attack them anonymously here...NOT COOL!

Right on Nancy! Negativity begets negativity and that is exactly what we don't need now. TheRead More taxpayers of this town stepped up and allowed the BOE to prevail on referendum day. Time for parents to take a breather over the summer and let the BOE and Supt. do their work on plans to improve. Some people get so caught up in a fight that they can't drop it. Credit the Patch for many recent articles about the good things that kids are doing. Hope they keep it up. That's what we need to right now, especially when we have just been given new hope for the center of Rockville. Let's stop airing our "dirty laundry" to the rest of CT. It's a new day!
