I'm pretty sure action movies are to blame for this.

That is a very common way to describe small outbreaks of diseases. it's not a pun and you should know better.

I want to automate so badly, but I can't get past the price. Even the lights modules cost $50 bucks.

Cooking is definitely cheaper, and if your reading this, you have some sort of access to the internet which means you can learn how to cook.

Meh- they missed the biggest issue- Blake Lively was terrible. If you edited her out almost completely, the movie would be 300% better.

I will add that not having study guides is an entirely different complaint, and at the college level, perhaps rectified with the statement: I expect you to be prepared every class and to always be ready to take a test. Then give them an entry or exit quiz every lecture. You don't even have to fully grade them, just…

Rubrics are a pretty standard feature for teachers and considered lacking in higher education. I would suggest you test them out. I think your students are merely trying to clarify expectations, which is not always bad.

I think this is not an example of whichever lobbiest yells the loudest. For one, Facebook initially did not listen. And two, we should not pretend like all lobbying is bad. I think it's safe to say that this lobbying had a good result.

The issue is the content was reported and them Facebook responded saying they wern't going to delete it because it didn't violate their policy.

Honestly-

No, it is "No Child Left Behind" and the modern parent that gives their children study guides and rubrics. Google the mathematician's backlash to the Common Core Standards- they want procedures taught in high school so they are prepared to do college math without a calculator, and they assume critical thinking will be…

College classes are mostly a joke too, and I went to a good school. AP classes teach you to write if you have a good teacher because they require writing. If your AP teacher didn't teach you how to make revisions, then they weren't doing their job.

This is a great comment to parents and schools.

Considering the cost of colleges, AP exams aren't such a bad deal. Further, if all you try to do is cram your students heads with information, they won't pass the exams.

As an intern you are unlikely to be the go-to point person for the boss on gossipy information. The article directly tells you to be nosy when you have no right to be.

I'm not saying they shouldn't protest. They went beyond protesting.

You should never gossip unless you want to be viewed as a fool. You should listen to gossip, learn from gossip (it's not all rooted in evil- some employees do suck), but you should always, always be above saying a bad word or forming a strong opinion.

I think it's clear we have to agree to disagree. Quotes from Pussy Riot themselves encouraged authorities to prosecute them harshly. They once broke into a shop and publicly masturbated. They got what they wanted- to be martyrs. Let them be martyrs.

Here is a good article on how they did break the law then and did worse prior. They engendered no public support and definitely tried to act like hooligans.

They clearly did break a law. In America we call it disorderly conduct- in Russia it's called hooliganism. They were also trespassing, since they weren't there for appropriate reasons. Since they planned to stage a protest and film a music video, had a church or company pressed the police, they would have been…
