+ - Teenager Expelled and Arrested for Science Experiment

Submitted by ruhri
ruhri writes "A 16 year-old girl in Florida not only has been expelled from her high school but also is being charged as an adult with a felony after replicating the classic toilet-bowl cleaner and aluminum foil experiment.

This has quite a number of scientists and science educators up in arms. The fact that she's African American and that the same assistant state attorney has decided not to charge a white teenager who accidentally killed his brother with a BB gun has some thinking whether this is a case of doing science while black."

Really?

IBM has several Linux clients that run just fine on Lenovo T series Laptops.

I was issued one as an IBM employee, it is just RedHat with IBM approved apps layered on.

I did nothing but install vanilla RedHat 6 and all the various bits worked right after boot.

OpenClient gets installed, layers on a VPN client for corporate access, forces an encrypted drive, Notes, Symphony, etc, and off you go.

Probably a keystroke monitor in there too, but hey, it is a provided laptop, I expect it.

You can do the same with SuSe, Ubuntu or Debian.

Please, won't somebody tell me what diddie-wa-diddie means?
