That's how I did mine ... combination of TA and RA = no grad school debt plus ~$1500-1800/mo income (back in the mid-late 90s) to scrape by on.

Oh, many of us do, but the laws have been written that keep the working class down. We take what we can get and be glad for it. It's the American Way!

Good luck. Our Republican state legislature figured out a way to get our anti-gay-rights amendment on the ballot during the primaries which a) have notoriously low voter turnout and b) didn't have a Democratic race for president, further limiting the liberal vote. It probably didn't make a huge difference in the end, but it shows the lengths conservatives will go to in order to shove their morals down everyone else's throats.

I'm too bored to do much digging, but I read this one about an hour ago. http://www.nbcnews.com/technology/technolog/dont-pass-it-voting-booth-hoax-spreads-facebook-1C6884772. That said, maybe it isn't being perpetrated by R ... maybe a D is behind it in an effort to make it look like an R.

Go for a malt-forward brew and you can get by on about $23-25 for a 5 gallon batch, which will yield north of 50 12 oz bottles. Under $0.50 for a good beer is a nice price point, but as you say, there are some up-front equipment costs, ignored labor costs and TIME!

This is slashdot ... Try 1% Small, 9% Medium, 30% Large, 40% X-Large and 20% XXXL

Or like how Pixie Stix are naturally low fat...

If ever a post should be modded above a 5, it's this. I stuck around town, worked (mostly) day shift in the kitchen of a pizza joint and hung out at the beach with the rest of the kids at night. Best. Summer. Ever.

I do ERP architecture and development work ... Most of the recruiters that contact me are looking for 6 months or less. One even sent me a position that was LISTED as a 20 day contract 1500 miles from my home. I don't even respond to those.

The fact that you WANT to run vi inside emacs automatically makes vi better! I just wonder why you want the stovetop, oven and kitchen sink included when all you really NEED is a blender.

vi has ALWAYS been better than emacs and you know it!

If they were EMPLOYEE shares, then they weren't part of the IPO. FB can only sell shares still held by the company. Any shares granted to employees are theirs to do with as they please (as long as it doesn't violate any contractual agreements).
