I don't know that removing the laptops would necessarily help. My gf is in school for nursing and she complains a lot about people who are slow to understand or ask "stupid" questions -- i.e. questions that were already covered during that class, or were covered in the readings (that were assigned to be completed before that class).

Or a trap.

You've been listening to Admiral Ackbar too much.

or 4chan.

Close but not quite...

Upon a report of a suspected lost, stolen or missing laptop, the feature was activated by the District's security and technology departments. The tracking-security feature was limited to taking a still image of the operator and the operator's screen. This feature has only been used for the limited purpose of locating a lost, stolen or missing laptop. The District has not used the tracking feature or web cam for any other purpose or in any other manner whatsoever.

They're a little too vague for us to know the exact circumstances. Thanks for the link, though.

My car has been hit once by a motorist failing to yield at the AC Airport circle. There have been plenty of other times when someone did something stupid (and illegal) and stepping on the brakes was the only way I avoided a collision. I absolutely hate the circle in Somers Point. I honestly have never witnessed someone coming off the bridge yield to traffic in the circle. Sometimes during the summer, though, I like to go have a bite at the Point Diner and just watch the tourists get all jammed up.

My girlfriend experienced this recently. She started college when she was 22 or 23, and has been living on her own since she was 18. She applied for financial aid and was denied because her parents made too much. Even when she qualified to not have their income taken in to account, she was denied the bulk of financial aid because she busted her ass previously and worked full-time while attending school. The real kicker, though, is that her school refuses to certify loans, so it's unrealistic for her to get 3rd-party loans either.

Further, the study was designed to simulate people walking and had built-in pauses where entities would stop (to tie a shoelace or talk or whatever). How often do you see that sort of behavior on the highway?

While acknowledging that you DO have a valid point, I'd like to draw your attention to that fact that 100 Km/h is roughly 60 mph. Unless you meant 100,000 mph?

OMGWTFBobbq? Sorry, I could not resist. :(

It's been a while since I looked at any stuff like this, but I believe that to become a US citizen you have to renounce citizenship to all other countries. The exception is if a country does not allow you to renounce your citizenship, in which case you get a dual-nationality. I'm not sure how citizens-by-birth are affected by this.

The layout has been bothering me too, but I had no idea we could revert to the our view. Thanks!

This used to be the only game we would play on my friend's dreamcast. Myself, I have two copies of it for ps2.

Wouldn't that be a mebibotnet.

I dunno... mebbe?

Employees set neither prices nor policy. I fail to see how yelling at them helps the situation at all. If you're pissed, go ahead and ask to speak to a manager. Go ahead and spread the word concerning these "deals". But really, have some sympathy for the poor schlub who's just trying to make ends meet.

My understanding of bby's system is entirely second-hand, but the opportunity to correct behavior and a "warning" system is how the company works.

Basically to be fired you have to MAJORLY fuck up, or get four warnings for the same improper behavior within 90 days. For example, if I fail to "properly" offer a service- or replacement-plan then my sup or senior may pull me aside to walk me through the proper method. If I'm observed later not properly offering the plans, I may get a write-up. Say I'm out not dressed according to code: write-up. I decide not to go to work one day: write-up.

Your third warning within the time period *for any specific offense* is your final warning. And if you just watch your ass for a while, the slate gets wiped clean. I'm under the impression that it's not very easy to fire a full-time employee due to a lot of red-tape and technicalities.

I don't want to sound gay or anything, but unicorns KICK ASS!
