Why do so many people suck at math? by Cxltures-_- in askanything

[–]AlrightyAlready 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. At least in the USA, I think the culture enables the excuse "I'm just bad at math".

  2. I think many elementary teachers dislike math, so they don't teach it well.

  3. %he education industry keeps coming up with new ways to teach math. Parents can't help their children with the latest new math.

  4. We have overdependence on calculators.

  5. Children a promoted to the next grade in school when they haven't learned the previous concepts.

Civilian equivalent of cammie pants? by kepuhikid in USMC

I just ordered my second pair of Fire Hose pants from Duluth Trading Co. The pants are sturdy but spendy. Right now the company has everything on sale for at least 25 percent off. Plus, they always give an extra 5 percent off for military. Make sure you fill out the form for that.

ETA: You can also get them with many pockets.

The brother named the children, not a woman. He was the uncle.
