One other problem is the way teachers are evaluated. Much of the success of students, like it or not, is the home life of the children as well as the economic status of that home. Teachers in are evaluated based on how their students perform on multiple guess tests and when those children in less affluent areas do less and well the teacher is faulted resulting in negative performance evaluations. Whether this affects their pay or not the psychological impact is such that the teachers get out of teaching. I have read that in Colorado the average teaching career is about three years resulting in great turnover and resulting shortages. Those who have degrees in STEM can generally have and easier time finding employment outside education and others end up as real estate agents or other kinds of management employment.
It was reported recently that Colorado school districts are short somewhat more than 3,000 teachers for next school year. Would rabbits or monkeys fill the void? Assuming the requirements are reduced for getting a teaching license in Colorado, this may be a solution. As a side note, whenever the legislature seems to have a problem balancing the next year's budget the first thing that comes out of the governor's and legislators' mouths it to cut funding for education. No wonder there's a shortage of teachers.
No, you should feel smarter because you understood how nonsensical these statements are. "Human body's energy frequencies... " picked up by carbon fiber. YIKES!!!!
There's someone you should meet. Name's Barbara Streisand, maybe you've heard of her?
One of the first names that came to mind when I read the original post here. Now lots of folks will be looking at the episode but also, hopefully, trying to understand the situation involving coal in all its aspects.
Some of the stuff you can buy at Walmart will be from fairly large corporations having their brands as well as be Walmart banded stuff like soap and toothpaste from Procter and Gamble, Dickies from Dickies, and many more items. If any of these brands use AWS for some or all of their data handling how likely is it that they'll drop AWS just to get shelf space or product pages on Jet? If you want Crest toothpaste or Tide detergent and it's not at Walmart you have many other places to go, Including Amazon. Will the cost of moving to another data storage service make up for the loss in business at Walmart? If not, Walmart may be the loser when they won't sell these name brand, popular items.
Are your retirement accounts (401ks) vested and transportable with each move? If not, then you'll reach 60 years old with little of no retirement income. It used to be that you needed to work a minimum time (7 years ?) for retirement accounts to be vested; not sure what the situation is now. If the major source of the contribution was from an employer, as in my case, holding short term jobs could be a disaster if you can't keep the whole value of your retirement accounts.
There are some extensive systems that recycle huge volumes of liquids such as spent motor oil generated at car dealerships and oil change locations (Jiffy Lube and such) and the spent deep fat frying oil from fast food places and other restaurants. Both of these sources of liquid waste are recycled into useful products.
I presume the used electrolyte can somehow be restored to its former usefulness in these batteries. Can that be done at the "charging" station or must it be stored in large tanks and then transported to some nearby industrial plant? Otherwise, it will need to be disposed of as hazardous waste.
If the Internet and the World Wide Web become too dangerous for terrorists to communicate they'll find other ways to communicate their nefarious plans which may be more immune to cracking. This could include face to face meetings in secure venues such as caves or messenger transmissions. It may be that the best way to learn of such plans is the old fashion method of inserting moles into such organizations. They must be really good or they'll end up as recent moles have in China.
The insurance should have coverage for prior conditions, not what some folks in Washington, D. C., propose that would prevent coverage for the worker in some situations.
And I thought pay day loan interest rates/fees were usury. I'm not sure paying 30% of the amount transferred using some Apple store app would be legal in most of the US.
If what I read about allegations regarding Trump's and associates' interactions with the Russians is true, the Russians don't need to hack into Mar-a-Largo, they get all the info they want for free.
Why didn't MS just call Windows 10 S Windows RT? Sounds to me that's what it is. This OS can only run APPs from the Microsoft Store, which makes it a non general use OS. So I smell a failure in process?
Eventually utility patents expire 20 years after initial filing date and so will the income in that time frame. Not sure how long Microsoft's patents have been extant, but I've read that MS has 127 patents associated with Android cell phones and maybe iOS phones, including things like touch interfaces.
Understood. I've also run into folks hired who were "gotten rid of" with wonderful letters of rec. The earlier employer in your case didn't want to take the trouble of firing the person, was afraid of litigation or didn't want to go to the trouble of helping the employee solve her problem, so just wrote a good rec letter.
A few years ago I remember learning that in the US there were about 20,000 people who were 100 years old or older who were very healthy and living on their own. Just recently the estimate had grown, IIRC, to 50 to 60 thousand. I also read that 30% of babies born today will live to be 100 years old. I'm guessing there are a surprising number of folks that are 110 years old in the US. Whether they are healthy living on their own or not is another thing.
Remember George Burns's statement, "If you live to be one hundred, you've got it made. Very few people die past that age."
Speaking of Adam and Eve, I've often wondered how the human population developed. Cain supposedly killed his bother, and nothing was said about female humans born to Adam and Eve. Even if Adam and Eve had daughters, or Cain and Eve have daughters, did Cain and/or Adam have children with Eve's daughters? Sounds like lots of incest was going on regardless of the situation.
If you want to prove the Americas were settled 130,000 years ago you need to find human bones buried in the Americas that are reliably dated to be that old. Otherwise, any indirect evidence is very suspicious.
There may be a good reason they're former employees. These days letters of recommendation mean almost nothing since any negative statement can result in a law suit against the writer. I've been told to just write statements like: the applicant worked here from date 1 to date 2 and his/her experience may qualify him/her for the job he/she has applied for. Likewise, CVs don't mean anything either.

Right on!

Seems to me Yahoo! home page/news is more like one of those "newspaper" tabloids you find in the check out lane of a supermarket.

Sounds like an idea for a Monty Python skit or maybe Saturday Night live. Can't wait. Perhaps I missed the skits.
We may have to rename the Streisand Effect after this is all over.
How about the Streisand-Murray Effect?
