only because charitable donations are tax-deductible
So?
It being tax-deductible (for up to 5 years depending on how much you donate) defeats the purpose of charity being shown as a positive effect of capitalism, which was the point that was being made.
I wish I had a mod point to throw +1 insightful on this. (I'm not sure the funny value is larger than the sad truth value, so insightful it would have to be!)
voss posted something I feel should be referenced along with this information on the School Admin's email address.
Kimberly Hester does not have clean hands. Posting an offensive picture of a co-worker with pants around ankles could be considered sexual harassment.
This is not harmless fun "A parent and Facebook friend of Hester’s saw the photo and complained to the school."
What teachers and employees do reflects upon the schools.
Teachers and school employees have a higher standard of care especially when posting comments about other employees.
Schools can and have been sued for failure to act in cases of sexual harassment. The school district had reasonable suspicion.
I have to agree with that. I never even noticed slashdot has ads until I was presented with that option to turn them off and finally noticed one. I have yet to actually use that option. Perhaps we can get a statistic on how many readers have that options and have left the ads running?
With this new affordability, I will be able to use a strong sensor array and cheap tags to track the gremlins that keep hiding my wallet, keys, and remote!
actually, as an Idaho resident, I can tell you the news covered little on the subject of technology. The teachers were mainly objecting to other parts of the bill. The online classes for example wasn't an issue as much as the increased class sizes (higher student/teacher ratio) and removal of teachers. The bill would lead to loss of teaching jobs, and that caused most of the complaints, along with changes to the teacher's pay system. I don't know anyone who objected to the increase of technology itself other than general concerns of students having difficulty with online classes.
That being said, I didn't look into the bill enough to care about it one way or the other. I don't care for online classes myself as the only one I took was so poorly and cheaply done I spent more time thinking about how cheap they had to be to compress a 3kb gif image down to 1kb to where it was ugly to even notice, and audio with obvious hissing, then I did about the material itself. If current online classes are still done like that, I wouldn't be able to tolerate it at all, and not having the option of taking the class in a classroom or avoid the class altogether would have driven me mad
that definition states skill or physical prowess. I'm pretty sure that means physical prowess is not required if skill is. (also means skill is not required if physical prowess is.) So unless you'd like to state that professional RTS gamers are not more skilled at their game then someone who does not play as often, it would seem to fit your definition just fine.
Also, Curling is an Olympic sport that I would argue requires very little physical prowess, but a lot of skill. (muscle memory to adjust aim and momentum is hard to justify as requiring more prowess than the dexterity of aiming 100+ precise clicks per minute for 10+ solid minutes. And yes, they do click that much and with perfect precision.)
The other option is to marry Bryan Mills(Liam Neeson)'s daughter. He'll take care of it.
the difference is simple. You end up keeping a low income, easy job, that you know you can do to pay the bills opposed to moving to a better job that you only theoretically can do as losing the job is a much harsher impact then simply not changing jobs in the first place.
It's affected me. I can barely pay my bills while working full time right now. Going to college full time would be very difficult with the conflict between school hours and the available work hours for me, which means loans would be and grants wouldn't work, and I don't know if scholarships will allow for only 1 or 2 classes per semester. And no, I can't afford to pay the per credit charge of even a single class every semester either. Even if I'm simply misinformed about my options now, The knowledge that college isn't free has still affected me in continuing that line of education.
Of course if everyone is educated, that doesn't mean everyone makes more money, it simply means that the education becomes devalued as you may end up with needing a master's degree to avoid McDonald's instead of just a bachelor's. The master's degree will then be worth less since more people will get it just to avoid McDonald's and therefore the higher supply of workers allows companies to offer less money, thereby decreasing the average pay of a person with a given degree. wage slavery at it's finest.
On the other hand, if everyone was educated fully, they may understand just how criminal business practices actually are and may figure out how to work as a whole to improve society to where money is nothing more then a footnote in history.
Thank you for this information. I'd been looking into getting a blu-ray player as soon as I had the spare cash for it, but hearing that it needs firmware updates (when you're right, these devices should never need firmware updates. unless it's to read a disc that's acheived higher data density), I now have no desire for blu-ray. I'd rather deal with pirating and maybe buying a disc just to give people their share then deal with the nightmare you just described to me.
since the troll won't give a NSFW label.
