the point here is that the kid's parent goes to the *local* PTA and bitches and thus changes things at a local level. As much as I am for parents being involved in children's educations, it's this kind of policy influence that I think is ruining our education system. And you gave a really good example too.
Uh, state what bill required schools to let kids pass due to "not feeling good about themselves?"
Also, the only way we can fix our school systems, not system, it's a system that's usually controlled at the county level, sometimes higher, sometimes lower. But we need consistent education, strict education and proper education. The only way we can do this is if we make education federally controlled.
I'd like to see the day when a school's funding and quality do not take a hit because it is in a poorer side of town. I lived in a well-off community while I was in middle school and had to go to a school in the ghetto just because that was the closest school to me. But because the school was in the ghetto, the building was dilapidated, the library was woefully understocked and the teachers didn't give a damn.
Except in countries like Japan and Brittain, homeschooling isn't even an option, IIRC.
What IS the answer is strict federal controls on education. Let's face it, putting education in the hands of local officials may have worked 30 or 40 years ago, but things have changed since then.
I was talkiung about the Japanese run. I could be wrong though, as to exactly when it was canned during it's run. But it was canned, no one watched. Funny huh?
Only on small techinicalities though, I noticed there was a misprint of a LexisNexis search he cited that she cited, but the one she cited was bullshit too.
but MY phone is from nokia and from 2001. Trying to find even a year old replacement phone in MY country, the US, is still expensive. I should've made that more clear.
Japan needs to stop advancing portable phone tech. I'm still using a 3 year old one from Nokia! It's bad enough they consider year-old phones to be so worthless they price them nearly 1 en or so.(that's what I hear, but I'm not sure if it's that literal.)
Plus I've ran the DDR part of the Akon game console room in 2001. I can tell you that after accidentally losing my modded PSOne and all of my backup discs, I was quite happy with the fact that I didn't bring a single original CD.

So? tell that to my GameCube, PS2 and my friend's Xbox. They all support higher res HD displays.

I wonder if Alan Alda will let this stand.
I watch DVDs and play games in HD.
There's more to using an HDTV set than just broadcast video
I'm more interested in if it's possible to /. a fat I2 pipe.

WTF you talking about?
Kidou Senshi Gundam(eg: The original Gundam series) got canned in the middle of it's run!
Franken got Ann wrong.

He's right on the whole.

If I had mod points, I'd mod you up for being a good conservative.

I'm wondering, do you have the urge to kick ann coulter in the face?
Isn't AOL accessable via normal PPP dialup somehow?
Won't this make AOL entirely accessable with out that damn software?
Somethingawful already do this? Oh wait, that was just stupid pranks, not outright scams.
It's amazing, and TTY users wondered why Dell required them to call the TTY line.
Screw you. Besides, it wasn't concious effort to do 'en' over 'yen' either. Read the whole post jackass.
there is no 'yen' in japanese. it's 'en.' There's no 'ye' vowel, but we pronounce it as such.
(I'm also just covering for a typo of mine, though...)

I know nokia's not a japanese firm.

if I could brag about smart customers, and not having to deal with bonzi buddy, I would. Just to be a jerkt o my friends who are working in IT.
But seeing as how I'm unemployed...
more to the point, someone's going to make it run linux and play doom on it.
