    teacher explains why she helped students cheat

    You know the URL address bar at the top of your browser? The one where it has the http://www.whatever.com on it? You click that to select the entire URL, then while it is selected, go to FILE|COPY (or if using Windows, do a CRTL-C) to copy the URL to the magical Clipboard. Then go to EO, start a...

    Rethinking 9/11, and other rants

    It's actually very easy to tell. The facts are actual facts, and the ones that are made up are made up facts, drawn from conclusions based on assumptions and straw man arguments engineered to fit a preconceived idea, and then passed off as fact. As you should know by now, expediting contains...

    How low will you go?

    From the carrier's viewpoint, though, I could offer you an empty move for 22 cents, or I could pay you the 22 cents, plus the 50 cents, for a total of 72 cents to take that load to GA. I can also snag an extra 22 cents for FSC from Moot and Turtle's variable rate FSC and end up paying you 94...

    Smart move?

    Cult comes from the word "cultivate", to till, refine, to grow and develop under a close watchful eye. Culture also comes from the same root origin. A cult is defined as a particular system of religious worship, especially with reference to its rites and ceremonies, and has only been applied in...

    Rethinking 9/11, and other rants

    Your premise is flawed (which isn't a surprise), as I was not there and did not witness it. I didn't even see it live on television, because at the time of the pancaking I was on a plane which flew out of NY that morning. But I do know math, and I do know physics, and I know the difference...

    I spent 16 years in restaurant management, including McDonald's, Wendy's, Denny's and an upscale steakhouse called The Bullpen. Check E. Cheese - Where a Kid Can Be a Kid Never been in one, actually.

    That's right... turn it back on me. Sheesh. In any case, I'll take that bet. I'm one of the few who thinks kids should be able to do what kids naturally do, including running around and screaming in a restaurant. The old farts who complain about kids, yeah, I'm sure they were perfect little...

    Not even close. A Captain Picard facepalm was posted more than 2 years before you joined here. I would imagine there were others before that.

    On the debt ceiling talks

    Here's a really kewl eye-popping set of graphics that illustrate just what we're dealing with: US debt problem visualized: Debt stacked in 100 dollar bills At the bottom of that page is this link to another eye opener. U.S. National Debt Clock : Real Time

    Republicans who think that "Most" Americans don't want taxes raised.

    It's not unlike Obama's proposed budget "cuts" in several areas, but for USAID in particular, so that he can show a dramatic cut in their funding, but in reality it's nearly a doubling of the USAID budget. It's smoke and mirrors and creative accounting, where the bulk of the USAID budget is...

    Can Obama read?

    I think the 80/20 rule applies to a couple of responses in this thread, too.

    Can Obama read?

    Considering this thread is about Global Warming and the data that supports or refutes it, no, it doesn't.

    I don't care if you are a solo or a team, you are not going to have a solid sleep schedule in expediting. If you are an expediter and can have a solid sleep schedule, then you're not an expediter. Because you cannot have a solid sleep schedule in expediting, sleep management is, or should be, at...

    Windshield Cleaning..my view

    I use Sprayway, too. It's gnarly stuff. Auto glass installers use it, as do auto detailers and people who are really anal about keeping their windows clean. If you can't find Sprayway, then Stoner's Invisible Glass is a good alternative. The Guru Reports lists Bon Ami Non-Streaking Glass &...

    Rethinking 9/11, and other rants

    I shouldn't be surprised that there are people who still think the collapse of the WTC buildings was an orchestrated event. After all, believing in conspiracy theories allow people to be amazed and astounded, kind of like going to see David Copperfield make the Bermuda Triangle disappear. The...

    Can Obama read?

    Soooooo, as in therefor... ergo... thus?!? Just because one person lies doesn't mean all people lie. Using your logic, because the Global Warming nutobs lie about the causes of Global Warming, sooooo that means therefore ergo thus you are lying about the possibility of the existence of FEMA...

    Can Obama read?

    It won't, tho. Human-induced climate change and global warming is like a religion to most, and whatever data which contradicts the religion is wrong, and should be dismissed as irrelevant, regardless of how irrefutable the data might be. Like the article stated, the satellite data contradicts...
