How hard can that be to trace?

There is a disclaimer that what they post is a work of fiction and much of it most likely is.

I stole these when I visited the Queen.

Nice shoes! You're selling them?;)

It's fun being a teenager today...

No morals whatsoever

...ain't the Internet grand!

How hard can that be to trace?

Idea 1, I'm assuming Tumblr logs IP addresses of whoever posts to it, they can be traced via the ISPs to the user, then the police go and knock on the door.
(I'm assuming these people aren't clever enough to post via anonymous proxies or some form of IP mask like TOR.)

Idea 2, if the photos were taken with a camera phone, they often log the GPS coordinates into the picture file (mine does by default, though i've disabled it), if so, they'll be even easier to trace.

After the Vancouver riots here some people posted pictures of themselves looting and rioting on facebook. This being Canada all their friends turned them in and the rest turned themselves in and were very sorry about it all.

You have to wonder at the stupidity of people who brag about their crimes on the internet.

Just terrible... The internet is such a harsh place. My daughter can't go on fb anymore, I forbid her! Yes Julie, sometimes authority is needed with ten year old kids...

Some might think the link here should be on the science board, but I think it should be here, as it about educating the public.

Making Sense of Chemical Stories

Worth a look some interesting illustrations (tried to copy here but physically too large)

People needn’t be scared by chemical stories. The reality boils down to six points:

1. You can’t lead a chemical-free life
2. Natural isn’t always good for you and man-made chemicals are not inherently dangerous
3. Synthetic chemicals are not causing many cancers and other diseases
4. ‘Detox’ is a marketing myth
5. We need man-made chemicals
6. We are not just subjects in an unregulated, uncontrolled environment, there are checks in place

Is this topic about traditional education, 3Rs, or is this "educating" adults because they don't think as the "educator" would like? Leftest are known for their "re-education camps".

It should be about teaching everybody so they can ask questions. Like, "why do they flavour my food with citric acid, but put lemon juice in cleaners?"

The Greys already here.

Got Signal?

May we All have a METAMORPHOSIS. REASON. GOoD JUDGEMENT and LOVE and ORDER!!!!!

Ah yes, the 3R's

Reading
Religion
Relieving

I never understood the three Rs principle.

Reading, 'riting and 'rithmetic?

Clearly coined by someone not very good at 'riting.

Life on earth is the global equivalent of not storing things in the fridge.

Our public schools have been turned into indoctrination centers and prison camps.

Our children are being fed propaganda in lieu of readin', ritin', and rithmetic. This is how liberalism makes progress. This is how liberalism leans forward. This is how liberalism hopes and changes. This is how liberalism leads to communism and total failure.

Very interesting link and I found many more interesting things about the author (none being very flattering) and this being the most polite about him, http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Michael_T._Snyder.

Cheers.

Hello everyone :) How are you all?

I hadn't heard of Mr Snyder before, but gosh there's a lot out there to read by him... and about him. This hole in my education is going to take a lot of time to fill in I think. :/ I'd best start soon... I can't help wondering what he might be about to make of this? 1500 Year old Bible

1500 Year old Bible

Hmmn, just right for this project as it's searching for E.T.

"The book also claims that Jesus ascended to heaven alive, and that Judas Iscariot was crucified in his place."

Tractor beam transporting him to his UFO?

BBC reports highly variable Maths standards in the US when compared State by State against other countries.

US 'in denial' over poor maths standards

The maths skills of teenagers in parts of the deep south of the United States are worse than in countries such as Turkey and barely above countries such as Chile and Mexico.

Southern states Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana are among the weakest performers, with results similar to developing countries such as Kazakhstan and Thailand.

West Virginia is also among the group of lowest performers, where maths levels are far below western European countries or high-performing Asian education systems in South Korea or Singapore.

Northern lights

There is a band of high achieving states across the north of the US, where maths results would be as good as many successful European and Asian countries.

If Massachusetts had been considered as a separate entity it would have been the seventh best at maths in the world.

Minnesota, Vermont, New Jersey and Montana are all high performers.

You can't teach a kid growing up in Bay Springs, Mississippi the same way you teach a kid growing up in Boston, Massachusetts.

I am not sure what you mean here. Teacher's are trained to take into account of the differences in learning styles and abilities of all their pupils and plan their lessons accordingly (its one of the liberal, based on psychological research about how people learn, left wing conspiracies you complain so much about). I am sure there are more differences based on the individual child than the area they come from, which again, a qualified, well trained teacher will be able to adjust to anyway.

Nationalizing standards will only hurt the U.S. more.

And that's precisely what we're doing.

It really depends on what you mean by nationalising standards.
