Why yes, I have been to AA for years. You choose your higher power. I choose my stuffed monkey from childhood. When I was down I bitched at him, he slapped me upside the head.
So in essence, visiting a few times means jack, "Clue not found" (how appropriate).
Did you miss the part where the reason the dad was in jail was because the mom filed a BS report? Mom in jail = dad not in jail. Kind of hard to report an abuse case when you're locked up.
As for taking 'unauthorized' pictures of property, ever hear the term paparazzi? And what harm was this drone doing to "you or your property?" Making you angry or ruining your reputation for being a dick is not harming you unless it's make up (libel/slander). Letting birds out of boxes right in front of the 'hunters' is equivalent to letting some dogs out of a cage right in front of some 'hunters.' They're pathetic people who can't even bother themselves with actually trying to hunt. Kinda surprised they just didn't blast straight into the boxes with their shotguns and start taking pictures.
Making eye contact constantly and tracking the speaker. Wonderful- do they teach how to take notes while not looking at their pen/pencil and paper? Great choice; follow the rules so you don't get fined, or take the chance so you don't fail. Has anyone noticed as increasingly weird rules are applied, education results keep going down? The education system seemed to turn out pretty good people back in the 1920s-1960s (K-12 kids). Going to the moon, creating nukes, that kind of big stuff. Now we're worried about nail clippers and Tylenol in school rooms. And it's not like private schools are much better, either, since they build reputations with equally weird shit.
Except for very large bases, $10K is a bit of money. What is the program, what does it do? Who (not names, but what sector/level) are your clients? Everyone else discussed various strategies and such, I want to know what the baseline for this question is.
This is the way to do it, people. Generally, if you go to them with a positive attitude, explain your situation calmly, they'll try to help you. What you normally see is people flipping their shit at the very first sign of an inconvenience, which just sets up an adversarial attitude.
It is a right as long as you meet the requirements (generally not a flight risk, etc). Same thing as Free Speech- you are allowed to your say as long as your meet the requirements (generally not shouting "Fire" for no reason, protesting in public areas without a permit, etc.). The kid's passport met the requirements, even the gov's passport website says that if the chip fails the paper is still valid.
Unless you did, or are suspected of doing, something bad or anti-US, you can't be turned down for a passport.
Whenever I go back to my hometown, the site of the 2 towers for the local nuke is like a 'Welcome Home' sign. When you grow up with a nuke about 5 miles away, you get used to it. Besides, in the winter, if the wind is blowing in the right directions, we can get "nuke snow flurries!" (No superpowers yet, though, lol)
and I know that lines per day, commits, Mountain Dews chugged don't work as a valuable metric. I know it's different for programmers, but in the rest of the world it boils down to "Get X done by this date." Sure there are status updates, but not daily monitoring of networks routed, cables pulled, systems setup, etc. It's like management is treating coders like data entry people. Just push some buttons and magic comes out! Woo hoo! Don't know how you guys deal with that crap.
Where the rest of us look. If you need more help on that, go to some career planning sites. Lots of info there. Less bullshit than here. I also like the "Oh, it's easy" answers. Great guys, how about a little info for the dude rather than "it's easy?"
I wonder how much land of the major dessert could be laid down with solar? Sahara, Gobi, the one is southeast America, whatever other ones there are. Yes, yes, engineering problems and all that, but it is an interesting idea. As for transporting the energy around the world, use some of the electricity for electrolysis of sea water to hydrogen?
I have a question. Could the current waste materials be used in new breeder reactors, or are they not of sufficient quality? I'm at least an entire decade behind on nuclear reactor science & engineering (my level of knowledge is probably around "stuff go boom, slowly"), so I really have no idea.
Last year we were having a record snowfall, so I set my video camera up to tape some of it. It recorded some songs playing in the background. I uploaded it to show my family, and in about 2 hours I got a message saying it was banned in Germany because "The Final Countdown" was heard on it! Weird.
"If the 40% of the users are in the us, 40% of the devices should be manufactured here. It makes sound economic sense." That makes absolutely no sense. A company exists to make money, not enforce social policy.

Just don't ever have kids if you can't understand this. They wouldn't deserve it.

Beardo, meet Cthulhu. Cthulhu, meet Beardo. I'm outta here!
No. FSM is making his Noodly Reappearance!
At his attempts at slavery are transparent.

Just to get rid of all the tension between them. It's like a badly written sitcom.
I was wondering why they carrying around binoculars...
It took a wrong turn at Sacramento.
Eating a banana. Bobo likes a banana before bed time.
Is that a leopard guarding your file cabinet?

Because they are in the business to make money, not to push some political/social policy.
"If the 40% of the users are in the us, 40% of the devices should be manufactured here. It makes sound economic sense."
