I'm sure the tooling equipment for the M1 Carbines they built during WW2 is in a warehouse somewhere still... they could of course go back to building truly international business machines...
Well, there is gunbroker.com which lets you buy/sell things fleabay won't (anything gun related, etc). And they have several domains pointing to them as well (forthehunt.com, a few others). No listing fees for basic listings, they do picture hosting for you, and if you don't "upgrade" your listings, you only pay when the item sells.
Once a week? You are lucky... we get 'em 3 or 4 times a day, all from different numbers/area codes, to not only departmental numbers but to our (personal) desk numbers as well... funny thing is that I actually sat and listened to try and get a new warranty so I could find out the responsible company... no info given as to how to actually get one!
Some teachers get a kickback (esp. if they are the author of the book) but here in Florida a law just passed that prevents requiring a book that the teacher wrote, unless it is on a departmental level (as opposed to the course level)
No, the May '86 law still stands, that is where new tax stamps for Form 4 transferrable full auto goodies for us civilians were cut off. Police & military can still request dealer samples, but they must supply a formal request on letter head for the Class 3 dealer to order one. And, then, that item can only be transferred to police, military, or another class 3 dealer that has a sample request letter.
FWIW you can still get the tax stamps for short barrel rifles (less than 16" barrel), short barrel shotguns (18" barrel), Destructive Devices (hand grenades, etc), silencers, and "any other weapons" (such as the cylinder fed 12 ga "street sweeper" shotguns). Actual process involves finding the item, affording it, buying it, and working with a class 3 dealer. You may need the local sherrif to sign off (or form a living trust to bypass this step), but you definately need fingerprint cards, passport photos, and some time. Recently (past year) the wait times on form 4 approvals have dropped dramatically, so a 4-6 week wait is now typical for paperwork processing.
The people are the people, same people as the first, fouth, etc. amendments.
According to Miller vs. US (last SCOTUS 2A case, back in '34) ruled that the arms are arms that are common to the times (which is why Miller lost on his sawed off shotgun - they weren't in common military use).
And the security part? Its the security of being Free from a tyrannical government. Believe it or not, there have been armed revolts against The Government here in the US. And not just the Civil War. You may want to read about the Battle of Athens, Tenn. A revolt agains the local government with the underlying issue being Voting Problems (wonder how many remembered that in 2000 and 2004, and if I'll have an excuse to remind 'em in November this year)...
Not named after either of us, but she has my facial features (minus beard) and the wife's attitude (wife is a redhead from puerto rico... and i have the bruises to prove it)
My daughter is in a similar situation (she just finished 2nd grade), but we've worked with the teacher and bought a few extra grade level workbooks - 2nd and 3rd grade, covering math, writing, etc. Now when v2.0 finishes something early (which she often does), her teacher finds a few pages worth of stuff to do that is similar to what the class is working on in the book and has her do it. Occasionally instead of "more" work, v2.0 is allowed to do some extra "fun" reading as well.
I teach an "intro to linux admin" course at a local comm. college, and I offer an A for anyone who gets a kernel patch into the main tree and submitted it using their student email address. No takers yet, but I'm hoping one day...
Except that the sending phone, business name, etc. are the equivalent of email headers, and just as easy to fake. Try setting up hylafax - it will prompt you to enter all of that info.
But, the equivalent of email headers can be faked in a fax as well. The sending number, sending company name, etc. can all be created on the fly when sending a fax (at least, I do it when I use a bash script to take a print job to a samba server and turn it into a fax and send it via hylafax)
MMmmmm... tostones (green plaintains, fried, then smashed, then fried again), maduros (pan fried ripe plaintains), mofongo (greenish plantains smashed up with chunks of bacon and chicken broth)... mmm... plantains.
Of course, this is from my Puerto Rican wife - are the African plantains the same ones with the same possibilities?
But are they still heavy and sturdy enough to "console" someone... repeatedly? Sometimes I channel the BOFH, and these cheap plastic Dell deals just don't hold up to the abuse...

We still use a lot of ICQ here at work... which is funny, 'cause most of us have 7 digit id numbers...
Every projector we've bought in the past 4 or 5 years has had component input...
Regulators don't flow air until there is (slight) negative pressure...
Yup, with separate disks to work on to remove (mostly) the disk i/o contention, just let each process run happily away.

Nope, just got a new Dell with XP on it 2 weeks ago for a friend, and it came with just XP SP2 - no other updates, etc.

Well, I work at one of the Florida community colleges, and this is the first I've heard of a departmental kickback...
Seeing as how we got no raises this year, I'll be asking about this for sure...

Many Educational Technology positions like a BS/BA, and don't require programming. Look for things like "instructional designer" and such...

Don't forget the Battle of Athens, Tenn. While there were racial elements in the root cause, it was not a white vs. black thing.
(Voting issues in Tenn. in 1946...)

Anyone give this a read? A way to fight back... maybe?
Thought of posting this a few weeks ago re: the tracker tags a Texas school was using, but missed out on a near-top post.
