Effective date
2013 c 224:
See note following RCW
2003 c 195:
"The legislature finds that current economic conditions impose severe hardships on many commercial vehicle drivers. The legislature finds that commercial drivers who may not currently be working may not be able to afford the expense of a required physical in order to maintain their commercial driver's license. The legislature finds that Washington's commercial driver's license statutes should be harmonized with federal requirements, which require proof of a physical capacity to drive a commercial vehicle, along with a valid commercial driver's license, but do not link the two requirements. The legislature finds that allowing commercial drivers to delay getting a physical until they are actually driving a commercial vehicle will prevent the imposition of unnecessary expense and hardship on Washington's commercial vehicle drivers."

Not only was every aspect of his evaluation warped and biased due to the "buy-out", but he didn't even do a complete or thorough evaluation of all 3 children. He skipped one all together, brushed the abuse under the rug, and after being appointed a court witness, met with (and got paid by) opposing counsel, which directly violated court orders. He shifted his story once he was paid out (who knows how much), and played the game on the stand, under oath.
Somehow our legal system, all the way to the top, is so corrupt that he has gotten away with destroying families and dooming children to be placed back in dangerous homes. [continued below]....
If you are ever advised to go see this guy, do not!!! All you have to do is Google search this guy and you will learn a lot about him. Check out every link that is him and you will see what he does to families. He is a very rich man off his crimes, and children all over are suffering today because of him. He will see justice.

Period: Ming dynasty (1368–1644)
Date: late 16th–early 17th century
Culture: China
Medium: Ivory
Dimensions: H. 1 1/4 in. (3.2 cm); Diam. 3 1/4 in. (8.3 cm)
Classification: Ivories
Credit Line: Purchase, Friends of Asian Art Gifts, 1993
Accession Number: 1993.176
This ivory medallion, of unknown function, is carved on one side in high relief with a scene of the return by moonlight of a party from a "spring outing." Every detail of the scene corresponds to its standard treatment in genre paintings of the Ming period, such as those by Dai Jin (1388–1462) and Qiu Ying (1495–1552), in the National Palace Museum, Taipei. On the reverse is a low-relief pattern composed around the character wan, surrounded by four cloud collars and in turn surrounded by four "secularized" emblems of Buddhist and Daoist origin. Interspersed among the emblems are lotus, peony, aster, and hibiscus blossoms. There are traces of gilding on a red-lacquer base. The center of the back is penetrated by an iron pin that has been cut to the level of the surface of the ivory. There is a drilled hole on the edge, which is carved with a diaper pattern.
Relatively few ivory carvings can be dated with any certainty to the Ming dynasty. The landscape scene on this piece, which is a standard subject in Ming professional paintings, provides an excellent clue as to the period of the carving. The generalized emblems are also indicative of a late Ming date.

Baseball lore holds that a batting average below .200 is under the Mendoza Line, a threshold named after funny-looking, bespectacled futility infielder Mario Mendoza, a notoriously pathetic hitter of the 1970s.
But, why do we have only one such term for just that one threshold? Why not a unique term for each level? Hell, why not a whole Mendoza Scale that lists an honorary slang term for each benchmark of batting skill?
Why not indeed? Behold…
Tags: Bevacqua Bubble, Carew Cut, Kruk Sac, Mendoza Line, Red Sox, The Mendoza Scale
I laughed, then threw up in my mouth a little bit at "kruk sac", then laughed again.
It would be awesome to see a player hit all of them in one season.
[…] Martinez is next, one of five Red Sox hovering around the Kruk sac, or at the Al Kaline base […]

A Drone's-Eye-View Of The Monte Carlo Rally Is Impossibly Cool
The Monte Carlo Rally last week was the festival of beautiful, tortuous oversteer that we all expect it to be. Now it just looks a thousand times better with drones.
The Monte Carlo Rally last week was the festival of beautiful, tortuous oversteer that we all expect it to be. Now it just looks a thousand times better with drones.
Possibly the greatest racing driver alive today, Sebastien Loeb, rolls up to practice in a Lamborghini Aventador. Wouldn't you?
This might be the most destructive powerslide of 2013 so far. One Audi Ur-Quattro rally slides off course and manages to chop a telephone pole in half.
Today we learned how rally co-drivers communicate through microphones with the sack of meat that turns the steering wheel using pace notes. That system is fine, but what happens when the mic breaks?
Ever wonder what's being said over an intercom during a rally? That strange language in the background of rally videos? The instructions are known as "pace notes" and they are read by the co-driver from a book while the two drive as fast as possible through a closed section of road called a "stage."
You know how drift cars are supposed to slide through corners and race cars are supposed to grip through them instead? What if we found a race car that drifts through corners with some of the biggest slip angles we've seen?
The video of a Rolls-Royce Phantom tearing sideways through the British countryside went viral and for good reason. The real mystery of the video was who was behind the wheel of the $400,000 car. Now we think we know the identity of the Stig's uppercrust cousin.
The 2012 Rolls-Royce Phantom has a new bumper, some changes in the interior, and a rectangular LED lower light instead of the round one from before. You can even order it with an eight-speed automatic in case the six-speed ZF unit seems prehistoric.
Rallying is some of the toughest racing in the world. Drivers have to tackle changing weather conditions and roads that vary from gravel to dirt to tarmac. There are blind corners lined with trees and people throughout. It's not for the feint of heart.
In the VW hatchback lineup, the Polo is the awkward middle brother. He's not as usable as a Golf and not as city friendly as an Up!. But it's also the perfect size for rallying.
What if Ford had campaigned a Mustang in rally's unrestricted 1980s Group B golden years? One Jalopnik reader came up with this rendering and man do we like it.
Imagine an intersection where completely de-restricted race cars of almost any kind are allowed to drift in, do burnouts and donuts to their heart's content, and then peel off into the night without any fear of the cops.
Exhausted. Triple-digit speeds inches from trees and cliffs. In the rain, through the night, over jumps — It's no surprise many consider rally pilots the greatest drivers of all, and now Jalopnik readers have picked the best of the best.
Many Porsche 911s spend their lives being slowly driven to the country club or to some nightclub. This one is flat out over a crest like a baja trophy truck. This is how it should be.
One hundred and twenty-eight miles an hour with trees inches away. Run this video at 1080p and it just looks like a videogame.
Rally cars all follow a regular formula: 4WD, turbocharged 4cyl engine, family car body. Screw that, this is a rally Porsche 911 and it kicks ass.
It's mesmerizing. WRC champ Petter Solberg, practicing in the Finnish gravel, pure engine noise. One of the best rally videos we've seen.
"Let it go, we're on top of a house."
On Sunday, Ken block is celebrating victory at the Olympus Rally. On Friday he's practicing for Global Rallycross in Las Vegas, and he's got a few hundred extra horses to play with. How did it all happen?
Ever since our own Zac Estrada penned his story on a classic Peugeot meetup in Northern California, I've been on this weird Pug kick all week. I'm not sure what it is exactly. I tend to obsess over obscure cars Americans can't have. The Paris Motor Show certainly didn't help things.

As part of its commitment to ensuring the safest blood supply possible, the South Texas Blood & Tissue Center (STBTC) has begun testing blood donations for the Zika virus. STBTC is one of only a handful of blood centers in the nation currently testing for Zika.
"We believe this is the best way to safeguard the people of South Texas who need blood transfusions," said Elizabeth Waltman, chief operating officer of STBTC. "Taking a precautionary approach will optimize patient safety and help maintain blood availability for everyone."
Testing for the Zika virus is being done by QualTex Laboratories, which like STBTC is a subsidiary of San Antonio-based nonprofit BioBridge Global, with testing labs here and in Norcross, Georgia. Zika testing is being done in the QualTex labs in Georgia, because of space and capacity requirements for the testing equipment.

SAN FRANCISCO — At Facebook's f8 developer conference, Instagram owner Facebook announced absolutely nothing new about the photo-sharing app during the opening keynote.
Despite Instagram now having over 200 million monthly active users, up from the mere 22 million it had when Facebook acquired it two years, Zuckerberg and team announced nothing.
However, a third-party Instagram client, Flow for Instagram, is not only present at Facebook's developer conference, but it just released a new version of its iPad app at noon. While Instagram doesn't seem to be making news today, this app is.
Flow for Instagram brings viewing of the service's photos to the iPad, which is not currently available as an official app for the service.
This past March, Instagram signed its first advertising deal with an agency, Omnicon. The deal is for a year-long commitment for up to $100 million in advertising on Instagram. Companies working with Omnicon's media and creative agencies can now tap into Instagram as an additional medium for their ad campaigns. This deal happened after Instagram introduced support for videos, which commands the highest engagement and monetization, as we previously reported.
At the very least, we expected more news about Instagram — but we got zilch during the keynote.

When a parachute opens, the air exerts a large drag force onit. This upward force is initally greater than the weight of thesky diver and thus slows him down. Suppose the weight of the skydiver is 939N and the drag force has a magnitude of 1022N. The massof the sky diver is 95.8kg. Take upward to be the postivedirection. What is his acceleration, including sign?
All My Knowns:
F2= 1022N ***Would this value be negative or remainpositive?**
so....... 1961N=(95.8kg) (a)...OR -83N=(95.8kg)(a)

The Best Place for Kids.
Providing superior pediatric care is our reward. National recognition is an added bonus. Ranked among the 2016-2017 Best Children's Hospitals by U.S. News & World Report.
Complete Story
Actively Amazing
When Lawson was younger, clubfeet led to casts, braces and surgery. Now, thanks to the orthopedics team at Children's, his biggest worries are finishing his homework and getting to basketball practice on time.
Complete Story
Children's is the only pediatric hospital in the region to provide comprehensive pediatric oncology care in one single, convenient location. Approximately 10,000 children are diagnosed with cancer each year in this country. While most of them will need surgery as part of their treatment regimen, there are only a handful of physicians in the entire country that have subspecialty training in both pediatric surgery and surgical oncology.
One of these highly skilled surgeons is part of the surgical staff at Children's Hospital & Medical Center. Board-certified pediatric surgeon and surgical oncologist Shahab Abdessalam, M.D., joined the Children's staff in 2006 and is providing our children with the most advanced techniques and procedures available in pediatric oncologic surgery.
Dr. Abdessalam combines the training and skills learned through fellowships in advanced surgical oncology, surgical critical care and pediatric surgery to provide the safest and most advanced surgical care. These highly specialized skill sets result in improved outcomes for your child and ensures he or she has the best results possible.
A core member of Children's multidisciplinary pediatric oncology team, Dr. Abdessalam and his colleagues work collaboratively to provide sophisticated diagnostics, unparalleled treatment and comprehensive family care for a broad range of childhood cancers. Children's is home to some of the most sophisticated treatments and technologies currently available to treat these conditions. These include minimally invasive surgery, which can speed recovery with fewer scars, and sentinel node mapping, which can provide early detection of metastasis.

Riding in Style: First Time on a Party Bus
Al Drago and I, clusters of middle aged women and a few families took off down Huffman Mill Road; we were headed to the Best Western in Burlington. It was exactly how I pictured my first time on a party bus.
On Monday night, Al and I covered a food festival called Taste of Alamance for The Pendulum. We were told to park in the lot behind Starbucks and that shuttles would transport us to the hotel located a little further down the road. We didn't realize we would be riding in style.
Once we got to the event, we met up with Brandy Miller, the woman responsible for planning Taste of Alamance. After she gave us our wristbands, we headed in and began covering the event.
I'm sure I looked a little out of place. Everyone else's hands were clutching cups, plates and napkins; I was holding a stack of papers and my pen from the Writing Center. I felt a bit awkward at first, observing people and walking up to groups of friends and inserting myself into their conversations; but after awhile, I started to enjoy myself. Most people were pretty friendly and willing to talk to me; and the tasty food didn't hurt either.
This story was a challenge for me as a reporter. It took me some time for me to get comfortable walking up to strangers and asking them questions. I am used to having scheduled interviews where the person has agreed to talk to me. I'll admit it put me out of my comfort zone, but I learned from it.
Also, getting to sample local cuisines definitely beats dinner at the dining halls. Sorry Colonnades.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
So, I went to the US Department of Education website like he had done and applied. I got a confirmation that my consolidation was approved and that it was paid out in order to payoff the existing loans and start fresh. Shortly after, I received letters in the mail from Sallie Mae that they would be servicing the "new" Dept of Education loan (which was supposed to pay off and thereby consolidate the existing Federal loans). I thought everything was fine.
A week goes by, and I decided to login to my Sallie Mae account. Lo and behold...Sallie Mae has RIPPED ME OFF!! Not only did they NOT pay off the previous loans as part of the consolidation agreement, they ADDED the "new" consolidation loan to my previous balance and show that I now owe DOUBLE what I did before...as if I got brand new loans to go back to school!!! WHAAAAAT?!!!
The US Dept of Ed website specifically states:
3. Direct Consolidation Loan identification numbers. Depending on the type(s) of federal education loan(s) that you choose to consolidate, your Direct Consolidation Loan may have up to two individual loan identification numbers. However, you will have only one Direct Consolidation Loan and will receive only one bill.
Why do I now have 2 new ADDITIONAL loans for a total of 11 separate bills and due dates Sallie Mae? Why did you NOT pay off the existing Federal-based loans as required by the US Dept of Education to cancel out the "old" multiple loans?
If there is ANYONE out there who has been ripped off like this, please respond. Sallie Mae's repayment fraud MUST STOP!! They're using OUR TAX DOLLARS to rip us off!!

Photos: Andre Dirrell Spars Hard For Possible UK Return
Photos & text by Chris Robinson
On Monday afternoon, super middleweight prospect Andre Dirrell (20-1, 14 KO's) could be found inside of Johnny Tocco's Boxing Gym in Las Vegas, putting in some work with a pair of ambitious prospects.
Dirrell sparred two rounds with super middleweight prospect Lanell Bellows (2-0, 2 KO's) and four with Apopka, Florida's Craig Duncan, a talented amateur who recently moved to the city with hopes of soon turning professional.
Trainer Rodney Crisler brought both men over from Floyd Mayweather's personal gym, their usual stomping grounds, after hearing that Dirrell was in search of some sparring.
The work was lively and while Bellows and Duncan were undeterred with their attack, Dirrell's edges in speed and experience were noticeable.
Now promoted by 50 Cent's SMS Promotions and training under Floyd Mayweather Sr., who was in the building watching on, Dirrell is eyeing a Dec. 15 return to the ring, mentioning that he very well could be seeing time on the proposed George Groves-Glen Johnson undercard, set to take place at the ExCel Arena, in Dockland, London.

Littleton Rotary Club Stories
For more information and some other fine photos by Ms. Ferland, click "more" below!
This was a great teamwork effort by our Rotary club along with other community members and Town employees. Volunteers showed up on two different days to cut brush, sapplings, limbs, and other debris that was obstructing the view of the river from the RiverWalk Pathway, and then they hauled and stacked the resulting debris for the Town's Public Works crew to feed into their chipper. I estimate that over thirty hours of volunteer work was donated to the community by the Littleton Rotary Club to our Clear-The-Riverwalk project, and the results of those efforts are wonderful to see.

The Littleton Rotary Club last year awarded a total of $24,000 in scholarships to seventeen students graduating from local high schools. These scholarships were presented at graduation exercises at Lisbon Regional School, Littleton High School, Profile School, White Mountain Regional School and Littleton Charter Academy. The club also awarded a total of $3,770 to six recipients through our educational enrichment program which provides financial aid for local individuals pursuing education and other training to further their career opportunities.

A car giveaway and free baseball tickets are just a few of the inventive ways retailers are building store-brand loyalty. SN recognizes the Top 10 promotional efforts
If store associates believe in a brand, chances are their support will rub off on shoppers. That's the thinking behind a ground-breaking, private-brand promotion Family Dollar conducted last year. The retailer sent coupons for its new Family Gourmet cookies to 48 stores so that employees could try them. Several weeks later, it ran a contest to see which stores could sell the most cookies. Those that did won cash prizes. The event generated such a large sales lift that Family Dollar rolled ...

Skip to comments.Student debt limits who we become (You won't believe this naive cry-baby)
Posted on 10/26/2007 6:49:11 PM PDT by VA Voter
I am 24, live with my parents, cant find work and am floundering in a sea of debt five figures high. I think of myself as ambitious, independent and hardworking. Now Im dependent, unemployed and sleeping under the same Super Mario ceiling fan that I did when I was 7.
How did this happen? I did what every upstanding citizen is supposed to do. I went to college. I took out loans so I could enroll at Alfred University, a pricey private school. The next year, I transferred to the more finance-friendly University at Buffalo, where I could commute from home and push carts part-time at Home Depot.
I related my forthcoming debt to puberty or a midlife crisis each an unavoidable nuisance; tickets required upon admission to the next stage of adulthood. But as interest rates climbed and the cost of tuition, books and daily living mounted to galactic proportions,
I realized this was more than some paltry inconvenience.
Upon graduating, I was helplessly launched headfirst into the real world, equipped with a degree in history and $32,000 in student loans. Before ricocheting back home, I would learn two important lessons: 1) There are no well-paying let alone paying jobs for history majors. 2) The real world is really tough.
Desperate times called for desperate measures, and I had no intention of living in a society that was as unfair as this one. To seek a haven devoid of the ruthless 9-to-5 ebb and flow of contemporary America, I moved to Alaska.
As a liberal arts major, I dreamed of making a profound difference in peoples lives. Instead, for a year, I lived in Coldfoot, a town north of the Arctic Circle that resembles a Soviet Gulag camp. My job as a tour guide for visitors temporarily alleviated my money woes because it provided room and board, but when the season ended and I moved back home, I was again confronted with the grim realities of debt.
Desperate, I browsed through insurance and bank job descriptions. I had hit an all-time low. Could I surrender my soul for health coverage and a steady income? Could I sacrifice my ideals by falling into line?
Suddenly, living at home didnt seem nearly as degrading as selling out. But sadly, other graduates dont have any choice but to work for temp agencies and retail stores to eke by.
Thats the tragedy of student debt: it doesnt just limit what we do, but who we become. Forget volunteering. Forget traveling. Forget trying to improve your country, or yourself. Youve got bills to pay, young man.
Unfortunately, the recent passage of the College Cost Reduction and Access Act doesnt portend that times are a-changin. The act reduces interest rates on Stafford Loans and increases Pell Grant awards. Whoopty-do.
Theres no question that this is a step forward. But were still talking pennies and nickels when we need to completely revolutionize the governments role in financing post-secondary education.
College is a wonderful experience and something every young citizen should pursue. But without help, a college education is becoming an unaffordable rite of passage and a privilege of the affluent.
My loan payments cant wait much longer, and soon I must leave home to find work that doesnt compromise my integrity. Although I sometimes wonder what it would be like if I had declared as an accounting major and got a cushy job punching numbers somewhere, Ill take my history major, my debt and my moms cooking any day of the week.
Ken Ilgunas, who lives in Niagara Falls, fears college is becoming unaffordable for most Americans.
Give me your location.
What did the history major say to the engineer?
"Would you like fries with that?"
32,000 in debt? I wish.
I have peices of debt like that in my stool.
He could (*gasp!*) join the military and let the army pay off his debts.
Oh, that's awesome!
Getting a job is "selling out"?
This guy is the poster boy for Hillary's "New Direction".
Believe it or not, he actually was capable of keeping a job. He's one of the best and the brightest ...
That's why you go into community college and work on the weekends and the busy season you little wuss.
btw is there any demand for people with bussiness management skills? If there isn't I'd better switch my major quick.
"Ill take my history major, my debt and my moms cooking ..."
Ken, you're a pussy.
College ain't what it's cracked up to be. But it gets more expensive every year.
He should have majored in Philosophy.
And just what's wrong with working as a philosopher?
We are all created equal. After that it is every man/woman for himself! ESAD jerk!
That reminds me of an old Saturday Night Live parody of Sarsky and Hutch called "Sartesky and Hutch." Sartesky (played by Akroyd)was the Police Department philosopher. It was a hellaciously funny skit!!
I can identify with this. After paying for a $60000 law school education (a bargain, especially considering I had no undergrad debt) and finding out that law was a complete waste of time and made no real difference in anyone's life, I looked around at the jobs I really wanted and that would make a difference. I literally could not afford to take them. Luckily, through a friend of mine, I got a job as a director of volunteers at a local hospice. I got a much higher salary than the lady before me, but at $460 a month in education bills, I am still just barely making ends meet and struggling to save for retirement.
The author is right in that young people go to college and take out loans thinking "I can pay it back when I get a real job." A couple of problems persist with this— 1) there are not that many "white collar" jobs out there for new grads especially— even in the legal market, it is very difficult for new lawyers to find a job and they will be luckily to crack $40K if they can find one, and 2) most young people are living in dorms with parental allowances when they are making these decisions. Few understand how many bills there are in real life that you are not worrying about in college. e.g. health insurance, car insurance, renters insurance, heat, water, etc etc. It doesn't take long to eat up a paycheck.
PS— as a caveat to my previous post, might I add that this guy IS a total liberal whiner, but I do see this as an ongoing ordeal for many new graduates. ;-)
Having prosecuted over 3000 felonies, I can assure you I've "made a difference" in many peoples lives.
My guess is this story is a parody or a joke of some kind.
There are some jobs he might consider, however; that would massage his work ethic and ego at the same time.
Would suggest he call the Democratic Party. . .they can always use someone like Ken. . .or just go to a public school - preferably one he can walk to. . .and get a job teaching. They will love him for his sacrifice; and as well, his great contributions.
Surely he cannot consider either of those jobs; a 'sell-out' of his principles; and he need not give up his old bedroom - or Mom's cooking for that matter.
(He should consider however, replacing the old 'Super-Mario fan' with one that spins an updated Spider Man.)
Expecting others to pay for you "liberal arts" degree in history reduces your integrity to near zero to begin with.
He might have to submit to the random urine test once in a while also.
Having prosecuted over 3000 felonies, I can assure you I've "made a difference" in many peoples lives.
No more than wannabe 'loser speak'. . .from this whining; insufferable Lib twit.
It would seem he's already trained for his future career. Now he needs to get back to it. A history major, what a waste.
College is great if you pick a degree that actually gets you a well paying job. You pick your major based on being able to get a job.
I switched majors when I was going to college in the 80s from chemical engineering to computer science. Chem E's weren't getting job offers but CS majors were. It was a smart move back then.
Look at the job market, and then pick your major.
My niece graduated from college a few years ago with some sort of telecommunications degree. She's only 25, and she just bought a house. She's already making over $80K a year.
She just got an undergraduate degree from Texas A&M.
Then there's my other niece who got a marketing degree from A&M. She got a job for about $30K, and her parents and fiance have had to help her out.
Get a degree based on the job market. See how much you want to make and what kinds of jobs will provide that job. Then go for the degree.
Try leaving Niagara Falls and going where the jobs are. The Falls was dead when I left in 1977, and has only decayed since then.
So your History degree isn't opening doors for you? I knew that would happen when I was 16. I loved History, still do, but I majored in Chemistry. Then I found out what jobs were available for BS Chem, and switched to Chemical Engineering. Never looked back.
It's his own fault because:
1. If you can't get a job in the field, get a degree in a field that you can earn a living in or find a way to get a job with the degree.
2. You don't need a college degree to get educated. Sit in the library and read all the books.
3. This guy needed input on how stay focused in school and finish fast - and not run up debt.
4. Dave Ramsey program desperately needed - if you didn't take all the spring break trips, you wouldn't have a 5 digit debt.
Take down the fan.
You're also stupid.
I worked my way through college and post-graduate school. My father was dead; he had been a blue collar worker. My mother was a school teacher. I graduated with NO DEBT--ZERO! I didn't go to a pricy private school, though I was accepted. I went to the community college and the state universities. I worked after school, on holidays, and on weekends. I didn't have two nickels to rub together. This went on for years and years. I have never been in debt. I am not now either.
I was a millionaire by the time I was 40, a miltimillionaire by 45.
I set up a scholarship program for indigent people. I have no idea how many people I helped educate.
The reason I was so successful is this:
I DIDN'T DEPENT ON ANYBODY FOR A HANDOUT. AND I DIDN'T GO INTO DEBT. AND I DIDN'T WHINE ABOUT THE HARDSHIPS OF LIFE OR EARNING A LIVING!"This society" is not unfair--as you claim it is. And your self-pitying whining speaks volumes about you.
The "tragedy of student debt"--as you so self-pityingly phrase it--is stupidity.
"Forget volunteering. Forget traveling. Forget trying to improve your country, or yourself. Youve got bills to pay, young man."
This is very stupid:
"without help, a college education is...a privilege of the affluent."BALONEY! My life is proof of the stupidity of what you have said.
"Ill take my history major, my debt and my moms cooking any day of the week."So??? You've got 'em. What are you complaining about?
Or the Air Force.
I got a history degree, just like this bozo. The only difference is that I had real jobs. I taught in school, and taught martial arts on the side.
But I gave them up to put in a couple of years of service in the world's finest Air Force. I didn't even realize that they'll knock off about 10 grand of college loans. Or that you can get another Associate's degree from training. Or that you can get a Master's degree for free while active.
This goober could do the same. But that would require discipline and sacrifice. Whining in the paper is much more to his liking. Doesn't require sweat, or hard work.
"Well, go eat crap, you pathetic pink-o."
What follows is the lament of a young, conservative history professor.
So many on this site tend to view education as field beneath them. Fine.
So these folks tend to denigrate those of us who work in education, social sciences, etc. The problem with this is that this tends to shift the ideology of the social sciences to the left, that is, smart young conservatives who listen to your advice will only chose degrees that lead to financially rewarding careers, rather than face the challenges of a demanding but not particularly financially rewarding profession.
So then we end up with history departments like mine, where there are 3 Communist, 7 socialist, 2 Anarchist and a token Republican. And my friends on Free Republic wonder why academia is infested with loony liberals.....
If this young man were willing to work, he would find a job. The fact that he didn't get a degree in engineering, law or business is the least of his problems.
But go right ahead, mock teaching, make fun of "stupid history majors", the university system, the social sciences, etc. And you will continue to surrender academia to the left.
For me, I'd rather encourage young conservatives to teach, research, write, and retake our education system. Even if that means they can't drive a car as cool as you...
Keep up the good work, Will. Keep encouraging 'em. If there's anything this world needs, it's wise teachers--and expecially on our college campuses!
Another thing. (This is not for you, Will, but for everybody else out there.) My mother taught me something important.
She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but before she could go to college, her father--a highly promising attorney--succumbed to alcoholism and dragged his family through hell--and also through the slums of several cities while he was at it.
She wound up sacking groceries.
She told me this: "Any honest work is honorable."
She did manage to complete one year of college.
After she married my father and had children, she went back to college, at night.
She worked hard. My father, who had not finished high school, helped her. They both worked hard.
My father died while I was still a kid.
My mother persevered--though it was very hard and we had very little money. We were quite poor.
When I was a senior in college, she had two courses to complete before getting her college degree: chemistry and physics. She flunked physics. She didn't think she could pass either one. She had very little self-confidence.
I told her not to worry, that I had studied both chemistry and physics in high school, and that, after I graduated from high school, she and I would enroll together in the nearest college, and I would get her through those two courses.
I did.
Every night, all summer long, I sat there with her. I would read a paragraph, and explain it to her. Another paragraph, and explain that.
I really learned chemistry and phisics well.
And she earned her college degree.
She could not have been happier or more proud.
Neither could I.
If I can do it--anybody can.
My father often said this to me. He taught it's not the job that's important but how well you did it. He'd like to say, "You know, a good janitor is more valuable than a bad surgeon."
We can be happy and proud to be a part of the Great American Bourgeoisie. I certainly am. And our opportunities are literally unlimited.
His plight is further complicated by the decay of the Northeast manufacturing base that used to be a source of jobs. Erie County/Buffalo has lost a lot of manufacturing over the years and the job market is very competitive there. Those who have suggested vocational-technical training as an alternative to liberal arts made good points.
Sadly, his plight is shared by too many in his age group. At least he actually graduated. Many have the debt but no degree. Many also have significant ($10-20K) of credit card debt.
Anya Kamenetz has chronicled this in her recent book, Generation Debt. Most of the young people in these situations are there because of poor choices. That said, the privatization of many of the student loans and rapid escalation of interest rates when these folks miss payments can easily cause $40-$50K in debt to balloon to $150-200K in debt in a few years.
It is too easy for these young people to make imprudent choices and get stuck in a hole so deep that they can not climb out. There are documented cases of colleges using bait-and-switch on loans and encouraging students to sign loans that they have little potential of paying off. The whole situation reminds me of a quote by P. T. Barnum - "There is a sucker born every minute and two to take them." It is sad to watch.
The solution is for parents to train their children to make good financial decisions. They need to teach them never to sign a contract they don't understand. They need to train their children to seek counsel from knowledgeable people who do not have a motive for financial gain as a result of the student's decision (beyond, perhaps, a fee for advice.) Proper choices throughout youth and into adulthood will minimize problems for them as young adults.
I'm beginning to wonder if having college become unaffordable might be a good thing. First, fewer kids will be indoctrinated by leftist professors, and second, they'll learn to work for a living instead of being fed this nonsense that perpetual academia is somehow honorable.
why didn't he check this out before he took all those loans and majored in someting he couldn't get a job in?
And this loser didn't even make a hobby of it, he spent $32,000 that he didn't have to sit in the audience while a few 2nd rate pointyheads told him what they thought and he ought to think too.
Hit the used bookstores and a tenth that money will buy more history than you can read in a year from more good historians than any given college has in the entire department.
Theres no question that this is a step forward. But were still talking pennies and nickels when we need to completely revolutionize the governments role in financing post-secondary education.
A new $11 billion federal subsidy to give useless liberal arts majors such as this whiner a further $1,100 a year in outright tax free gift income - up to $5,400 now - and he can't even say thanks. He says it's just pennies and he wants more.
I say if it's just pennies to you, give it back.
What a spoiled brat. He just found out that the real world is tough, and that a history degree won't get you a job. He thinks that college is a constitutional right. What a jerk!
Always check your work too :-)
My daughter has a degree in history (Civil War) as well, despite my recommendation for another degree. She now works for a large insurance company as a fist line supervisor, had a husband and a son and a mortgage. She and her husband are Republicans.
Is that the real difference?

Hi folks,
I need an inventive way of setting the Paypal gateway to a unique currency.
I've got myCred plugin that keeps credit balances for users. For my WooCommerce installation I'm using the myCred currency. That stops me from enabling the Paypal gateway since my myCred currency isn't real/recognised. I sell credits, but at direct translation to Euro (£1 = 1 Euro), so the value of the product price doesn't need altering. Nor do I use discounts as incentives to pay with the site's currency.
Thanks for your time

Federal Pensions:
Relationship Between Retiree Pensions and Final Salaries
GGD-97-156: Published: Aug 11, 1997. Publicly Released: Aug 11, 1997.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-2637
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO responded to a series of questions about federal pension costs and retirement policy, focusing on: (1) the number of federal retirees, if any, whose pensions have come to exceed the final salaries that they earned while working; (2) why these retirees' pensions came to exceed their final salaries; (3) the difference, if any, in these retirees' pension amounts if current cost-of-living-adjustment (COLA) policy that is, the COLA policy enacted in 1984, which established the formula and schedule used today by the office of Personnel Management (OPM), had been in effect without interruption since 1962; and (4) any difference in the number of retirees whose pensions would have exceeded their final salaries.
GAO noted that: (1) an estimated 459,000 (or about 27 percent) of the 1.7 million retirees who were on the federal pension rolls as of October 1, 1995, were receiving pensions that had come to exceed their final salaries when these salaries were not adjusted for inflation; (2) however, when their salaries were adjusted for inflation --i.e., expressed in constant dollars, no retiree was receiving a pension that was larger than his or her final salary; (3) as a general rule, using constant dollars provides a more meaningful way to compare monetary values across time, because the use of constant dollars corrects for the effects of inflation or deflation; (4) although no retiree's pension exceeded his or her final salary in constant dollar terms, GAO's analysis confirmed that three factors played an important role in explaining why the retirees' pensions came to exceed their unadjusted final salaries: the number and size of COLAs that retirees received, the number of years that they had been retired, and the number of years of their federal service; (5) GAO's analysis of the effects that COLA policies have had on retiree pensions suggests that the policies have played an important role in maintaining the purchasing power of retiree pensions since automatic COLAs began; (6) it also suggests that the effects COLA policies actually have had on retiree pension amounts cannot be summarized easily because of numerous changes that have been made in COLA policies over the past 35 years; (7) COLA policy changes have affected individual retirees differently, depending on when their retirements began; (8) if current COLA policy, that is, the policy that was enacted in 1984, had been in effect without interruption since automatic COLAs began in 1962 the pensions of some of the sample retirees would have been smaller than the pension that they actually received, and the pensions of other retirees would have been larger; (9) GAO's comparison of the effects of current and historical COLA policy on pension amounts suggests that other factors being equal, a majority of those who retired before 1970 would have received smaller pensions had current COLA policy been continuously in effect during their retirement, and about 90 percent of those who retired after 1970 would have received larger pensions; and (10) the changes that would have occurred in the sample retirees' pension amounts under current policy were enough to cause about a 3 percentage point (3.0) increase in the number of retirees whose pensions would have come to exceed their unadjusted final salaries.

Under the new rookie scale players are now more affordable. But I recently read that we have about 1.27 million in cap space.
Kaepernick was drafted 34th? overall and he signed a 4 yr contract for about 5.1 million.
AJ Jenkins was drafted 30th? overall and he signed a 4 yr contract for about 6.9 million.
Those 2 contracts are basically what are first 2 picks will look like for this draft with the 31st and 34th pick.
For Kaepernick's contract, his first year he made $375,000 in base salary. He then got $556,688 in signing bonuses. That's $931,688 total for the 2011 year. My question(s) is which part of his salary or a rookies salary counts against the cap. Is it just the base? Or the overall total?
Also if the Niners only have 1.27 million left, that's about 5 players they can afford at the base contracts, unless we cut some players.
If anyone has more accurate knowledge of this can you please help me understand. Basically I'm wanting to know how we afford 13 draft picks with the money we have left or is this a sign that we will trade picks away or cut more players to free up cap space??
