You can argue about whether Clinton did anything illegal, but it is not at all the same as what Rice and Powell did. She has used exactly that verbiage in speeches around the country(private email account). Most voters don't understand the difference... let's try to be better here.
"In that vein he defined truth as the correspondence of a sign (in particular, a proposition) to its object and, pragmatically, not as actual consensus of some definite, finite community (such that to inquire would be to poll the experts), but instead as that final opinion which all investigators would reach sooner or later but still inevitably, if they were to push investigation far enough, even when they start from different points..."
Consensus matters for crap in science. Experiments and reproducible results are the only things that matter. Climate is hard because reproducing exact conditions is difficult without a spare earth... but hard doesn't mean we should resort to polling.
This is the worst part of the Snowden leaks from an American business perspective. There will be a slow global migration to other platforms based on the possibility that American products contain the ability to spy on you. I've no idea what that time frame is, but unless the US government pulls a 180 on corporate cooperative spying, there will one day be no market for US tech products outside of the USA.
Sadly, it is much easier for people like Zenna to promote the idea that bad teachers have a purpose than to fire them.
I have a few friends who are administrators at schools and the process to fire a high school teacher or college professor is long, adversarial and political.
I think everyone has had a bad teacher at one point or another. The best way to get rid of them may be to go confront them(politely) and tell them why you think they were horrible. Just make sure its well past graduation when you do it.
I think you've side stepped the point they are making. People are getting 4 year degrees and then taking jobs that don't need those degrees.
Society as a whole would be better if they got degrees/training suited for those jobs. Not to mention training costs are usually lower for those jobs. We end up subsidizing via cheaper money for student loans and grants, etc. their education, and often the students end up with debt that was unnecessary.
Granted, most people don't exit high school with a complete idea of what they want to do in life... but even so, if we could cut down on the unnecessary education costs, society as a whole would be better. The current agenda pushed by many politicians is to get everyone through college. I think the article is more about expressing an issue than coming up with a policy of no one going to college.
"Gitmo and torture kept as the ultimate stick, where you probably won't land, but you _might_ if you're really undesirable? Check. Same role as the Gulag had post-Stalin."
So far as I know the only people in Gitmo are those who tried to kill us or support those trying to kill us. That's a bit different than the Gulag which stored political dissidents.
If you tell me that they are prepping cells for Obama or Pelosi, then you might have a point here.
The real issue isn't how messed up the code is. It's that the state controller threw up his hands and gave up. He'll be issuing checks for the full amount(which will NOT help with their budget).
Hire some temps(or reassign the workers if you have a hire freeze), print the original check run and start writing hand-checks. Get it done.
after this is over, I'd look for a new state controller with some work ethic and less political motivation.
to do Physics right, you need calculus. Which most kids don't get until senior year in high school if at all.
That's why I thought it came last.
I suppose you could do it out of order for different levels of students(does this still exist?).
Not to worry... They will dumb down the curriculum until they can get numbers to match.
I seem to remember a story posted here about Carnegie Mellon awhile back proposing just that.

Who saw that coming??
They'll investigate Clinton for operating an email server, but not Rice or Powell, who also operated their own email server.
Rice and Powell used private email accounts. Powell had an aol address... I forget what Rice had. http://www.newsweek.com/colin-...

I'm sure you're a nice person, but you are 100% wrong on this topic. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Search for "consensus" yields one line:
"In that vein he defined truth as the correspondence of a sign (in particular, a proposition) to its object and, pragmatically, not as actual consensus of some definite, finite community (such that to inquire would be to poll the experts), but instead as that final opinion which all investigators would reach sooner or later but still inevitably, if they were to push investigation far enough, even when they start from different points..."

way to create a straw man argument.
The problem isn't the race of the people coming into the country. It's the fact that they do so illegally, cause problems and don't pay taxes.
The label here is a consequence of what they have done, not how they were born.
