Study Break: Undocumented students face hurdles to higher ed

1) My question is how did she get into the JROTC program ?

2) Blame falls on her parents no matter what & it's a bad spot for her to be in.

3) She and others held aprotest against the Georgia board of Regents ban on undocumented students in Athens, Ga., Wednesday, March 6, 2013. MAYBE THEY NEEDED TO FORM A PROTEST AGAINST THEIR PARENTS !?!?

4) I'd rather see her in the U.S. than the welfare, crime-ridden gangbangers we have in Athens !!

Wrightsville woman arrested for spanking customer's child

Thomas Jefferson Snodgrass

Bellehowell - No parent in site, what do you do?

So, if I think you're misbehaving, it's OK for me to beat the crap out of you? That's exactly what you're advocating.

That's not what Bellehowell was saying & I think you know it ! I hope you know the difference between discipline and a beating if you ever had kids.

Wrightsville woman arrested for spanking customer's child

Sounds like the 8-year-old boy missed more than a few spankings or he wouldn't be acting up in the store. Some kids don't get the discipline at home & they sure as heck can't get it at school nowadays. So no wonder we have a bunch of pampered tots, grow up to be gang bangers. Nip it in the bud when they are small.

"I give God 10%, why do you get 18?"

BTW, the pastor was NOT a man............and per Bible edicts & most strict religious denominations, a women is not suppose to lead a church as a pastor, but can have other roles in the church. Nowadays, almost anything goes in some churches & denominations......( big headshake ). Sad

If the pastor was truly in God's spirit, she wouldn't have reacted as such.

UGA scientists create new type LED for indoor use

I have to agree with E.J. on most of his comments. They are overpriced and the ones I have bought, have lasted NO LONGER THAN A REGULAR LIGHT !! I think there is a a lot of hype on 5-10 year life of these lights to get you to pay $$$$.

If someone has these new lightbulbs break, DO NOT USE A VACUUM CLEANER TO CLEAN UP. It will spread the dangerous substance throughout your house !! Don't know if a lot of people realize that.

Video captures images of men stealing at Madison County home

Was the home security video not of good enough quality for the Madison County Sheriff’s Office to enhance it & get the license plate # ? And this happened a month ago ?

And the first picture I look at besides the headline is of ladies doing the squats & I go WTH......What does that have to do with the article ? Got a good chuckle.

Documents show area bikers got caught up in FBI sting

"Authorities seized evidence during a search of Turner’s home, including guns and “cuts,” or leather vests with Outlaws patches, according to court records"

It's illegal to have leather vests nowadays ??? I know, I know....just saying. Get 10 years for that, huh ? Shock :O Shock

Maybe the FBI will start a sting of all the "spandex" bikers that run stop signs around Athens, it's a hot bed of illegal activity !!! Smile Laughing out loud Big smile

Have a nice day !!

Is Intel changing cable?

I'm waiting to see if Intel's set-top box will supposedly allow users to subscribe to individual channels, rather than purchase bundles through a provider. Really waiting to see if anyone can break that barrier that content producers have set-up. Would like to see ala carte option.

Dropped Dishnetwork because mostly junk on a lot of channels & AMC dispute. Also, looked at what I would spend in 20 years & said $crew it, not worth it ! Went the Roku option with Netflix & with internet, can watch almost anything when I want. Some live sports is still a major holdup though !!

The internet is pretty much a permanent part of our lives now, so that's a given.
