A lot of posters here don't read the article, but I can't imagine that you even comprehended the headline. Here's a Haiku summary:

Women were preferred

Based on this little study

Perhaps women quit?

You must be a youngster. The pardon was what it was - a conviction by Pres. Ford and an acknowledgement of guilt by Pres. Nixon. Everyone understood that this was the end of what would have been a bunch of lawyers arguing against each other. Instead, it was raw.

From Wikipedia -

After Ford left the White House in 1977, he privately justified his pardon of Nixon by carrying in his wallet a portion of the text of Burdick v. United States, a 1915 U.S. Supreme Court decision which stated that a pardon indicated a presumption of guilt, and that acceptance of a pardon was tantamount to a confession of that guilt.[8] In 2001, the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation awarded the John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award to Ford for his pardon of Nixon.[9] In presenting the award to Ford, Senator Ted Kennedy said that he had initially been opposed to the pardon of Nixon, but later stated that history had proved Ford to have made the correct decision.[10]

Many believe, as Ted Kennedy stated, that the pardon of Pres. Nixon was the right thing to do. That's why the Nixon pardon won Pres. Ford the "Profile in Courage" award.

FACT: The State Department IG report said that "there are criminal penalties for the unlawful removal or destruction of Federal records" (page 57), repeating that "penalties exist for the unlawful removal or destruction of records" (page 48)

FACT: The report states, "At a minimum, Secretary Clinton should have surrendered all emails dealing with Department business before leaving government service and, because she did not do so, she did not comply with the Department’s policies that were implemented in accordance with the Federal Records Act." (Page 23)

FACT: It is clear that she broke this law (the Federal Records Act).

There are lots of times when someone breaks the law but isn't charged or convicted. That doesn't mean they didn't break the law.

IG Report is here https://oig.state.gov/system/f...

"It's unclear whether the talking points themselves contained classified information." However, "Part of the exchange is redacted, so the context of the emails is unknown,..." So your theory is that the portions that are redacted by State are unclassified? Perhaps they contained unclassified talking points that are in the public? That's not how this works.

Didn't see the benefit until I realized how incredibly useful they'll be at the shopping mall. Same at any busy office building where parking is a problem. Pull up out front, get out, and have the car park itself. I'd buy that.

Dear Government, Please train more welders. Signed, Ford, GM, FC

Here's one document, marked classified (confidential) that she received. Yes, she read and then forwarded many such messages. https://foia.state.gov/Search/...

Sec. Clinton's released e-mails are searchable on line from the State Dept. at https://foia.state.gov/Search/... There are e-mails that are marked classified. One example: search for "hrc memo israel ideas" It's marked confidential. There are many others.

Today, April 12th, is supposed to be Equal Pay Day. The day of the year that supposedly marks how much more a woman has to work this year to make up for last year's difference. The attention-grabbing figure is 79%. That would mean that a man makes 26% more than a woman. Doing the math, this date then should have been April 8th. At just after 2am if you're wanting to set off fireworks.

Even as a kid decades ago, I taught myself how to add and subtract using what today people would call the common core way.

It made no sense to me, when given the question, what is 999 + 2001 to start the process in the one's column, carrying one, etc. I started with the most significant digit and worked left to right. It scales beautifully, and it gave me a sense of the size of the numbers. If I made a mistake, I'd be off by one or two. I'd love to see the example cited in your post.

There are bad math teachers. Perhaps your third grader has one. Perhaps the teacher doesn't have a good grasp on what they're teaching. Perhaps they're like you and don't want to change.

It's possible that kids learn differently and some love math while others don't. Some kids probably grasp the common core method slowly but would have excelled at the old way. Teach them the old way.

And have your kids take "high stakes testing." Only parents think of these tests as high stakes. The kids' lives don't change based on any single test. Even the SAT can be retaken. As for me, I had my kids take the SAT when they were in middle school. They did ok. But they did a lot better the next time, and the time after that.

According to ComScore, Android still has the lead in market share at 52%, compared to iOS at 44%. So most people don't pick Apple.

While there are 1.5 million apps available in the Apple ecosystem, and 1.6 million in Android's, the vast majority of time (85%) is spent in 5 apps. Few people use more than 25 apps in any month. Those top apps are available in both ecosystems.

That is quite some guarantee - "all future versions." I'm very frugal and don't abuse my phone. Even I don't think I'd be carrying around a phone that was even 4 years old, let alone expect it to be running some new killer app that required the very latest version of Android.

The Average Person doesn't need some guarantee that their grandkids will be able to fire up their Galaxy 7 50 years from now. I used to be an Apple person - and I don't think any of my iPhones lasted past 2 years. Average Person should buy a phone for what it is, based on the price, and perhaps not worry so much about what their hipster friends think of them.

In spite of this, I still believe that the bulk of the pics were the results of late night Sys Admins' perusal of data files.

The real sad thing is that Sec. Clinton decided to have a personal e-mail server, but those working for her will do jail time for getting her information she needed to do her job the only way they could have.

https://foia.state.gov/Search/... contains the released docs. Look for the one sent on 12/20/2012, titled H: Libya, Latest Benghazi Intel. It is marked "Confidential" as are many others. Is it really "Confidential?" I don't know. But it was born Confidential. And Sec. Clinton forwarded it on. The real sad thing is that Sec. Clinton decided to have a personal e-mail server, and those working for her will do jail time for getting her information she needed to do her job the only way they could have.
