My ibook died when out of warranty. Being a techy, I tried to troubleshoot it myself. So I tried various boot disks, resetting the pram, etc., attempting to boot to a firewire drive, even replaced the hard drive. No dice. Sent it to Apple, paid $400 and they fixed it and added a 90-day warranty. I'm pretty sure they replaced the board. If I had had AppleCare I would have just sent it to them in the beginning and saved a lot of time and frustration.
I've gone back and forth on this. Never liked the high reps mode as much because it took longer. But I've also plateau'd out at a level I wouldn't call heavy weights. I think the main thing though is to do something systematic with weights that at least gives you a burn but doesn't induce some sort of repetitive strain. If you've never lifted weights much, a class on weight training is very helpful.
Absolutely--Turnitin provides an indicator, not proof. All universities have rules for dealing with plagiarism. Where I have taught you cannot simply fail a student for plagiarism. There is a specific process you must follow to confront the student with another faculty witness present. The student is given the opportunity to respond to the accusation through official channels. Such a scenario assures fairness to the student and the teacher. As far as the trust relationship with students goes...well, you can have a policy of trusting students. But real trust has to be earned over time, and both sides have to work at it.
