There was a case some years ago, in Texas upholding exactly that notion.

So, you're telling me someone who can afford to drop $70,000 on a car is going to want to be seen driving it 8 years later?
Someone will be driving it 8 years later, unless you exepct the original owner to just throw the car away.
Wacom's method can't be used for a device-independent bluetooth stylus, because it requires special sensors behind the display.
However, samsung's tablets and phablets have the necessary sensors built in, and actually use Wacom styluses, complete with pressure-sensitivity.
So does microsoft's surface tablet, and a few others.
As a job skill, I suggest learning to code even if that won't be your primary focus. As a tech worker, you'll likely have to communicate with programmers, and you'll be much more effective if you can speak their language.
Basic is very well supported in the Microsoft ecosystem, and is friendly to beginners. If you're interested, check out Microsoft's SmallBasic IDE, which is a great tool for learning to program: http://smallbasic.com/
makes me wonder what you are teaching these kids if you have to ask us how to get a job in the tech-world. I hope your pupils won't have to ask that same question.
That seems unfair. Would you expect a music teacher to lecture kids about recording contracts?
It strikes me as unfortunate that a technology teacher doesn't know how to code, because that seems like a basic part of the subject matter. But I wouldn't expect a schoolteacher to be an expert on private sector job hunting.
At 30, you're young enough to do pretty much anything. But I'd caution against tying yourself too closely to a specific software vendor. You may still be in the workplace 30 years from now, so try to cultivate skills that will remain relevant.
It sounds like you're working in the field already. Have you tried applying for private sector jobs?
My dog is an omnivore who engages in corprophagia. I assure you that your diet is a strict subset of his. He's not picky.
You're not a vegetarian, you're an omnivore who has chosen to avoid meats.
Umm... that actually seems like a pretty good definition of vegetarian.
Protein != meat. If it were so, the article would have stated it more precisely.
From the study:
When the percent calories from animal protein was controlled for, the association between total protein and all-cause or cancer mortality was eliminated or significantly reduced, respectively, suggesting animal proteins are responsible for a significant portion of these relationships. When we controlled for the effect of plant-based protein, there was no change in the association between protein intake and mortality, indicating that high levels of animal proteins promote mortality
How much more precisely do you want them to state it?
Hummm... nope. It is about a low-protein diet, not a vegetarian one.
Try to be more attentive and think before you speak.
I presume you only read the summary?
The actual study found that animal protein promotes mortality, while plant protein does not.
The study is linked up there at the top of the page, in case you want to read it.
You can't legitimately claim a vegetarian diet can be as varied as an omnivorous one can be. Your vegetarian diet is a strict subset of mine. Full stop.
You can't legitimately claim a noncoprophagic diet can be as varied as a coprophagic diet can be. Your diet is a strict subset of a coprophage's diet. Full stop.
PETA has this crazed idea that animals are better off dead than owned...
Where on Earth would they get such a crazy idea? http://www.farmsanctuary.org/w...
Seriously, though, its not correct to suggest that chickens can't survive in the wild. Feral chickens (descended from farm animals) do well in many parts of the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
What I'd like to know is, why does PETA hate chickens so much? You don't have to be a genius to foresee what will happen to the chicken species if we abandon them as a food source
The species seems to be doing OK in the wild. Its far from endangered.
there's no way to unregister a number from iMessage.
Other than the ways set out in TFS and TFA.
Those methods don't quite accomplish it. You can unregister your number from Apple's central directory, not from the persistent iMessage cache of individual phones.
After unregistering, new contacts won't send iMessages to your number, but existing contacts will continue to send iMessages for weeks or months, as your number lingers in their phone's iMessage cache.
I unregistered a number back in November. Most of my iPhone contacts see that number as green by now, but a few persistent devices -still- show it as a blue iMessage number.
on the iphone, you just sign out of imessage. go to settings, messages, send and recieve. tap on your apple id and tap sign out. Then apple will know to send any texts to your number as SMS not imessage.
Signing out doesn't solve the problem, because individual phones cache iMessage numbers for months.
Signing out will prevent new contacts from iMessaging you. But it won't remove your number from the persistent cache in your existing contacts' phones. They will continue to iMessage you, no matter that you've signed out.
