Braves just notched their 10,000th win by bsmiles27in Braves

It was great seeing Prado back in the lineup. It's amazing to think that we're a top tier team despite him being hurt, Uggla being awful, and Heyward playing poorly. If those guys get it going, I don't see why we can't overtake the Phillies. Over 1/3 of our remaining games are against the Nats and Marlins, so it's within the realm of possibility.

Investigation Finds 'Widespread' Cheating in Atlanta Schools...Not By Students, But Teachers and Administrators. by airpatrolin news

Actually it's a big deal period. We (I'm a GA teacher) are specifically instructed to not tell the children the meaning of any word, period. It doesn't matter if the question is about the meaning of a word or not.

America's biggest teacher and principal cheating scandal unfolds in Atlanta: At least 178 teachers and principals in Atlanta Public Schools cheated to raise student scores on high-stakes standardized tests. by secaa23in news

If you have contempt for teacher unions, fine. However, it has absolutely nothing to do with this particular cheating scandal. Continuing to bring it up in regards to this story only reflects the partisan ignorance on your part.

If you follow this around places (reddit or otherwise), you'll see lots of rabble about public sector unions. Dizzy_Slip was getting out ahead of that narrative, since it is commonly misapplied with this story.

As a teacher in Georgia, I can tell you that we have no unions in the state of Georgia. We have "professional organizations," which are more or less lobbying groups with very little bite. We cannot collectively bargain, we cannot strike, and we can be fired with no cause in our first three years. I've seen a lot of rabble about public unions around this story, but that narrative doesn't fit here.

For the Fourth, I challenged some co-workers to take a sample INS Citizen Test. They did terrible, and half of them would not be citizens. How will Reddit do? (Be honest, scroll down for answers.) by sixstringer420in politics

10/10. I would hope so . . . I am a history teacher, after all.

Same here. I know several people who live there and even they call it "The Highlands."

Spark plug and carb cleaning did the trick. I've realized that while my brake light, turn signals, and horn all work fine, the headlights won't. I'm going to check the bulb and see if it's burnt out, but I've been told it's a new bulb. Maybe that wire has something to do with that?

It's a Runmaster 50cc. Moments ago I was able to make it turn over but it immediately died (i haven't messed with that wire at all). I've been able to recreate this a few times

You're pretty close to downtown Decatur as well. They've got some awesome bars (Twain's, Brickstore, etc.)

How long have you had that card? Is the 5% rate introductory or is that something you'll always have?

Anyone recognize this brand? It's from a Spanish leather wallet. by drschoenin malefashionadvice

[–]drschoen[S] 0 points1 point ago

Thanks for the offer, but I tried Google Goggles and couldn't get anything related to show up. I got the wallet as a gift several years ago and would like a new one, but the person who got it for me doesn't remember the name of the company.

Ask them about the Civil Rights movement. I had to do an oral history project for a course once and got some incredible stories.

Do you or anyone you know have an unusual name which your/their parents thought was wacky and innovative? by Plagiarismoin AskReddit

[–]drschoen 0 points1 point ago

I don't know if they thought it was innovative, but a girl I went to kindergarten with was name Siphylus (pronounced Siff-eye-lus). It wasn't until I was much older that I realized how tragic that name was.
