Every Child Left Behind
If they want to learn, sure. My wife teaches PE, and she can't even get a good chunk of the kids to dress out or walk a mile in 20 minutes. It's all based on communities and how they prioritize education. Agreed. Are you also saying the large percentage of children doing poorly in standardized testing is comprised of only ne'er-do-wells?

Every Child Left Behind
What is this pressure you refer to? Accountability? Doing ones job? The program sprung into place do to unacceptably high percentages of US children doing poorly. What entity is directly responsible for educating our children? Teachers. So if the teachers are asleep at the wheel dont you feel they should be held accountable in some way? Shouldnt there be some metric for grading individual teachers capabilities in how they perform their jobs?

Every Child Left Behind
I would guesstimate a large percentage. "The system" doesnt make people liars and cheats, their own morals allow it. Besides, I dont think anyone here will claim the US public education system is a ball buster so unless you're teaching retards every child should be easily teachable up to the minimum levels. IMO.

Beer
I was always under the impression the Guinness was the beer of choice for Brits. IMO, it tastes like warm death but opinions vary.

Happy Independence Day
It is amazing that they lost. What was the finest military at the time vs a ragtag mob backed by almost zero industrial might.

The Codex
That he is. Over the years Ive watched wave after wave of poster crash and break upon the rocky Volorian shores and yet there he stands untouched. Impressive.

Do you use Facebook?

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS THREAD!
I mention the difference in the Star Wars UI in comparison to the Rift UI which is a direct ripoff of WoW in every possible way.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS THREAD!
At least they hand-waved at changing the UI a bit by moving the minimap to the bottom and the chat pane and toolbar to the top. Ill probably give it a go when it comes out.

Didnt they used to give a free 30 day trial? You can hit level 20 in 1-2 days easily.

mkreku saves the tortoise
^ I should have known it was a trap. Someone at my wifes work was just giving it away (bird, cage, feeders, etc...) for free. I laughed to myself as I thought what a fool this person must be. Parrots are expensive after all! Well, turns out I was the fool as this god damn bird would not stop squaking when you left the room, like it got lonely or something. So a few weeks after I got it I couldnt stands it no more so I gave it away to the next chump that thought it was a great idea.

That's not quite right. You can replay as many times as you like but your scores and any levels, characters, weapons and whatever else that you unlock will be permanently unlocked. Was about to post this. Still a ****ty move. Then again, I am not surprised Capcom did this. They did some stupid **** for Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 and Final Fight Double Impact for PSN. You have to be online to play. But you wouldnt be able to perform any saves during that second run, right? So every subsequent run after the first would have to be a full playthrough from start to finish without saves?

mkreku saves the tortoise
As a boy growing up in Florida I used to go catch and release turtles all the time just for the hell of it. I also had a parrot that I got rid of because it was driving me nuts.
