I'll go so far as to say that 95% of people are probably biologically capable of going to college.
With all due respect you're about 70% too high. If you honestly believe that all we need to do is "straighten out" our education problems by fixing only the educators you will be very disappointed by the results.
Bing Tops Google At Finding Malware 111
adeelarshad82 writes "According to an 18-month study from German independent testing lab AV-Test, searches on Bing returned five times more links to malicious websites than Google searches. The study looked at nearly 40 million websites provided by seven different search engines. About 10 million results came from Bing and another 10 million from Google. 13 million sites were provided by the Russian service Yandex, with the rest coming from Blekko, Faroo, Teoma and Baidu respectively. Of these 40 million sites, AV-Test found 5,000 pieces of malware—and admittedly small percentage of websites."

PunkSPIDER Project Puts Vulnerabilities On (Searchable) Display 85
First time accepted submitter punk2176 writes "Recently I started a free and open source project known as the PunkSPIDER project and presented it at ShmooCon 2013. If you haven't heard of it, it's at heart, a project with the goal of pushing for improved global website security. In order to do this we built a Hadoop distributed computing cluster along with a website vulnerability scanner that can use the cluster. Once we finished that we open sourced the code to our scanner and unleashed it on the Internet. The results of our scans are provided to the public for free in an easy-to-use search engine. The results so far aren't pretty." The Register has an informative article, too.

That shouldn't be a problem. Either your cannibalize your own products or your competitors will do it for you. Better to the control it methinks.

I think he meant public "owned" as opposed to public place. The school is required by law to know the whereabouts of minors in their care the exact same way parents are. Imagine needing to know where several thousands kids are in a decent sized high school? This isn't about privacy, that is a stupid argument. Everyone in that school knows where she either is, or supposed to be, without that badge. She is also a minor, and like it or not she does not have any expectation of privacy during normal school functions such as classes. I am all about protecting private things that are supposed to be private. She does not have a right to be anonymous in going to and from class.

Ford was an anti-semite. It is perfectly acceptable to dislike him on that regard, and I would actually encourage it. That said, he was also right. By the way your economic fate is not set in anything other than your mind and what you're capable of.

For most, setting aside luck, regardless of what you do, the class you were born in is the class you die in.
I can't bear to think about how horrible your world must be to live in. The outcome of ones life is by-and-large a result of the choices one makes. If you want to double your chance of success you have to double your rate of failure. To quote someone who might know about things like this....
