The original Fast and the Furious was actually fairly awesome. You know, in a Point Break way.

If you enjoyed the GTA series, it is a pretty sure bet.

What a beautiful game. They really nailed the feel of the great westerns.

Well, at least he did undergo some training beforehand. I heard he also slept at a Holiday Inn Express before every flight.

I remember the thread, it was about history, or at least drifted that way. I will repeat that any teacher that is worth a lick won't be troubled by this, as you have a good amount of control over how you present curriculum after you get tenure.

I'm waiting in line at gamestop for Red Dead Redemption. Very geeky.

I'm pretty sure the super mutant getting blown to the next town is awesomeness. We should recreate the story of the three little pigs using the game engine.

I'm planning on heading to my local Gamestop late tonight for the Midnight release party. Should be fun, haven't done one of those in a few years.

Actually the very school district in question here lost a major civil case a few years back over gay and lesbian student treatment. Some students had lodged complaints about the way they were treated by both classmates and school staff, and they took it to court and won.

That isn't quite right. Schools are in the same category as fire and police departments and hospitals. The government pays the school districts to perform a service. All of those are the government, including hospitals if they're public. There are different levels of government, and the examples you gave are generally at the local level. You are quite wrong on this, down to the condescending child remark. By your line of reasoning, a plumber who fixes a toilet in a government building is now the government.

Eh, I'm pretty comfortable with the way things are, thanks though. Obviously there are a few things I'd like to adjust, but the system as a whole is pretty nice.

That isn't quite right. Schools are in the same category as fire and police departments and hospitals. The government pays the school districts to perform a service. The reason I think it is important to understand the difference is that when a school does very poorly, the government can intervene and take over operations. This is considered about the worst thing that can happen to a school. It was part of the No Child Left Behind act. It has also proven ineffective, as the schools taken over have yet to show any improvement and struggle to attract employees.

Dang, if Deraldin is choosing San Jose, the Sharks might be in big trouble.

Battlefield 2142 is superior to both, really. But I would stick to the Battlefield series if you want the latest game, BC2 is supposed to be very good, you get vehicles and large maps, and that is all I need to be happy, along with a nice sniper rifle. edit: This thread makes me miss playing BF2 with the Obsidian folks. I think I still have alanschu as my most killed in the BF2 stats.

Prediction time: San Jose over Chicago in 5. It will probably be the best series to watch this year. They have a ton of skill guys, and it is hard to imagine either team not going on to win the cup. Of course I'm rooting for my home squad. Montreal over Philly in 6 - I have a hard time believing a backup goalie with a few games is going to beat Halak in a seven game series.

TN, that is awesome! edit: Got me about 15 hits yesterday, and I like the blog, seems to be a pretty good place for information on the webcomic world.

Community was the only concern for me, that is a fantastic comedy. Sons of Tuscon was actually pretty decent, it deserved a bit more time to find an audience. American Dad and The Cleveland Show are terrible and just cling to The Simpsons and Family Guy to survive.

Good luck! Don't do anything that Shryke would do.

I thought I had a 3-1 record locked up, but Philly decided to make history, and I went 2-2. Ok, next round starts on Sunday!

Considering it can't even get past the language filter here, I'm going to go out on a limb and say it isn't appropriate apparel for school. Feel free to wear it elsewhere. Students are learning how to act in a professional environment when they attend school. While there are some jobs out there where you can wear whatever you want, many employers have expectations of a dress code. Schools are not quite as strict as a major corporation, but it isn't a free for all.

http://www.theepochtimes.com/n2/content/view/35126/ Here is a follow up. Apparently he has undergone a biological change. Unless the doctors are all in on it, I'm going to call this amazing.

1. I have stated over and over again that the students should not have been sent home or threatened with suspension. 2. I am not aware of any national redneck holiday being celebrated in schools. 3. If a group of students wore t-shirts that caused a disturbance in school, then I would speak to them about the proper time and place to make political stances.

I'm not trying to be rude to Volourn, but this has been a very interesting debate and I think both sides are better off ignoring his broken record posts. No need to let the discussion get cluttered.

I may not be a fan of it, but it's not what I consider a big deal. And if it helps sell a few more copies, then I'm all for it. Maybe a buxom broad should be on there as well, now that I think about it.

I'm pretty sure we moved past that like 5 pages ago. It doesn't matter what you put on, if you put it on with the objective of baiting, then you are baiting.
