If your 13 year old is open to the possibility of sex, they will probably find a way to do it, and someone to do it with.
This isn't boy and girl meeting for milkshakes at the mall: An adult would clearly have influence and power over a 13 year old in this relationship. There's also a big difference between a 13 year old curious about sex, and a 13 year old being manipulated by an adult to have sex. By trying to meet for sex, he's long crossed the boundary of contemplation and into attempted molestation. I'm sure he claimed that it was his first time and boy did he learn his lesson.
i'm not sure i can simply equate contacting a child for sex with littering.
Just try to find something as simple as a loaf of bread, or salad dressing without HFCS in it.
Bread has 4 ingredients in it. A vinaigrette has 2. It's not hard to make nutritious food; people just have to reconnect with cooking and their ingredients. Stop buying so many prepared foodstuffs, and you start to understand what you're putting in your body.
not that i'm disagreeing with your points, but i find it interesting that you respond to digital imaging tech with more tech, albeit film tech. i realise this is slashdot, but i think the mindset of which is technically better based on specs like film size is missing the point of photography. A photographer is someone that can take a great picture with whatever they have on hand, whether homemade pinhole or Mamiya 645 or digital P&S. I find it absurd that people turn their noses up to one format or another, and most of the time photography discussion isn't really about photography at all; it's about what gear people own or what ideological nostalgia they happen to side with. boring.
A camera, whether film or digital, should be good enough to get out of the way of taking a photo. Everything past this is gadget fetishism.
i assume that as vice principal, he would understand the nuances of inappropriate student contact outside of school. I even expect a part time substitute gym teacher to understand this, and this guy's a vice principal that has been vetted by the school district.
The picture is of him eating Mike and Ike's and you can infer that he's pretending they're pills
Do you not see how wrong it is to even know what the picture is regarding? there should be no pictures taken at all; the capability should not exist. I would have figured since this school district's main job is to deal with kids they'd have a policy for all this underage illegal surveillance. that way they wouldn't be depending on "common sense".
that vice principal didn't need common sense. he just needed to obey the law.
Go back even a century and whilst breasts were considered erotic then, they were much less eroticised and size less emphasized.
breasts are not some recent social construct. Look at Venus de Villendorf (22,000BCE). Physiologically, breasts are erotic becuase of the production of oxytocin during lactation and feeding, or did you not know that women can experience orgasm while the child feeds?
fugu is now farmed in Japan and cleaned and processed in a factory. The factory supervisor checks the organs are intact (esp. the gall bladder) and the meat is untainted. The danger and thrill of poisonous fugu in Japan has passed much like tapeworms in pork have been eradicated in north america.
can't they just require the cashiers to take a walk through the produce aisle, and then have them pass a quiz? the typical megalomart doesn't have that wide a selection of produce, only what moves in volume.
i pay the $15 per year for 600mb. it's fast, it works well on imap, i can use aliases, and my email won't trigger behavior profiling, won't target ads, or freeze me out of my email because someone sent me a spreadsheet.
i know everyone is used to paying for email, but i really like email without ads, someone that will support mail from a domain i own, from a server i don't have to manage but can access anywhere with anything. i think they provide a great service for what i pay for.
put down the cardiac poutine and fire a few e-mails off, guys.

Also, depending on what kind of students you have, with kids never assume you're overreaching. In the reality of the overcrowded classroom, teachers frequently set the bar far too low. Give them assignments that are open ended, and always offer constructive criticism and show how they could make their project even better.
You don't have to go overboard and etch your own circuit boards, but learning to solder really goes a long way. you can talk about cold solder joints, RoHS and the future of equipment failure. It would be great to show how to splice and insulate wires properly, how to replace a frayed cord on an appliance (huge money saver), and the basic safety tips about working on household current. teach them to read a wiring schematic while you're at it, and show them how to use a multimeter properly.
if you have 9 weeks and three sessions a week, could do 9 small projects, and maybe assemble a Arduino clone on a breadboard by week 2, which would provide a spark for other homegrown ideas by week 9.
Even compared to the cost of shipping it from earth's gravitational field? in order to make a LEO gas station work out economically, you'd need to build a space elevator. Having gas available on the moon/Mars opens up the solar system to exploration, as we no longer have to carry the raw fuel from home with us.
if there's water, then hydrolysis can produce hydrogen and oxygen which can be used in liquid-fueled spacecraft. a big ice patch on the moon/mars with a solar powered electrolysis kit could become a space gas station.
I am sure there has been at least one nearly successful action in the US since 2001 that is utterly classified because it would tend to cause a panic - or a violent attack on people of a certain religious faith. So we aren't going to be informed, probably for the better.
This is using Pascal's Wager as an argument to continue black budget funding. There have been several thwarted attacks like the liquid bomb plot in the UK, and these haven't been causing full blown panic. Do you think there will ever be another shoebomber, or did the very public incapacitation of John Walker Lindh by concerned, untrained passengers suddenly furnish a very real deterrent on any future flight?
I think that sunlight is the best disinfectant in this case. by showing the true nature of domestic attacks or terrorist actions, we can clearly demonstrate who is operating on the side of truth and humanity. It is best to lead by example, not cloaking everything under secrecy and privilege. If the real information is not available anywhere and we are just told to "obey authority", that's not so much secrecy as it's forcefeeding denial. Tell us what the real problems are, not to buy lots of duct tape and pray.

Trouble is...HFCS is in fucking everything..
Just try to find something as simple as a loaf of bread, or salad dressing without HFCS in it.

STD's are actually fairly uncommon in the mainstream porn industry. Some performers wear condoms
Genital herpes is endemic and ubiquitous in the mainstream porn industry.

Give the Man a hand!
it would make it much harder to lose the car keys though.
anal sphincter? not sure i'd like the application of the input device though.
Do you have jurisprudence saying that repointing mx records to keep an account would be in contempt?

how is Honda a worse anti-electric vehicle than say, GM, who killed a production electric car? not arguing, i'm curious.

sheesh we've already crashed the pathetic competitivebroadband.com server. either that or the ASP script sucks. HOW DO I MAKE A DIFFERENCE NOW?

Don't be too concerned, i think a Humanities undergrad just happened to get the first post this time, that's all.
shit i was reading from redacted fbi documents. Sorry John + Rich; you probably get that confusion in the Supermax all the time.
