I see a lot of posts here simply making excuses for the teacher, proclaiming why it wasn't really his fault or responsibility. So what? The situation presented is unacceptable, and we're kidding ourselves if we think that whether the details of this particular instance are sufficiently condemning or not makes a difference as to the fact this this kind of thing goes on all the time in our high schools. It's not okay. This woman at least made an effort to do something about it.

I've become rabidly anti-Java. My friend installed Java on my computer as part of the process of rooting my HP touchpad to install android, and within days my antivirus had detected multiple java-based attacks on my system. These were literally the first attacks since I'd wiped my HD after a previous Java related attack. I uninstalled Java immediately, and hope that I never have to install it again.

You can get really cheap refill cartridges on Amazon. I paid maybe 8 bucks for C Y M and x3 B. They're not 'official' but they work just fine, in my case better even than the normal ones.

It's so much easier for people just to delete the books off of your device without your permission than to send people to your house to burn them.

Why do we need to consume Vitamin C to avoid scruvy? Evolution abandons what is no longer necessary.

I like the grid layout, maybe additional places could be saved by having 'pages' of locations?

It's compensative sexism.

It's not impossible to be happy despite confronting and accepting the ugly reality of everyday life at the same time.

The better solution is to use an open door design (often found in airports) and have hand dryers rather than paper towels. Less waste and associated mess, no garbage to change, no doorknobs to not touch.

That line is in response to the question, 'Is Pinterest fundamentally feminine in some way?' The answer of no in that context is that Pinterest is a derivative behavior associated with 'women's magazines' which is also not
fundamentally
feminine.
