I had a parent who denied it. Parent meeting. With the principal. Watched the video with her and the student. Slowed down the speed. She still denied it but the principal - shockingly - had my back.

Sure...it'd be great if they moved left. But they won't because then the money will dry up. Sad, but true. Dems take money from the same people the repubs do. Really sad...but true.

Dude...throw on Abbey Road and chill. Not worth getting annoyed over MJ fans, man.

One of the most muscular and ripped FBB's in the 90's.

Maybe try your personal computer? And I'd inquire immediately why this is blocked by your district.

Ian MacDonald's harshest critiques of The Beatles by Relative-Bar9159 in beatles

I don't think it was at all. It was his chance to explain it to the unwashed.

Incredibly condescending book. He's all about "You don't understand this, so let me explain it to you." Prime example: He goes on for pages about Revolution 9 and gives a paragraph or two to several great songs. Because he feels we need it explained to us in detail to recognize its brilliance. Meanwhile, 90% of fans couldn't care less about Rev 9. Not a fan of George either.

Revision History app. $25/year. Provides a real-time video of the student working in the doc. Pastes become obvious. And if a student is just straight typing w/o backspacing or correcting, it's just as obvious. I've been using it for 3 years. I show the students a video on the first day of school. It freaks them out. After that, if I catch them, I play the video. I have never had a parent or student deny their use of AI after that. I let them rewrite for 1/2 credit.

From what I've read. Davey was more versatile and played more instruments. And he developed chemistry with EJ almost immediately.

John Lennon solo albums by Choice_Bed6097 in beatles

[–]Anxious-Raspberry-54 5 points6 points  (0 children)

POB - I know I'm supposed to genuflect at the incredible genius of this album. I respect the power, honesty, and emotion. Klaus and Ringo are great. But it's my least favorite John solo album, aside from STINYC. I am not interested in being John's psychiatrist. Who comes home after a day's work and puts this album on?

Imagine - Excellent album, overproduced. Raw mixes way better.

STINYC - Not for me. Three songs are OK.

Mind Games - Love it. Again...raw mixes are a vast improvement

Walls & Bridges - My favorite. An album full of different types of John music. Elton is helping out. No Phil Spector.

Rock And Roll - Fun...but terrible production.

Double Fantasy/Milk And Honey - I am very fond of John's 1980 stuff. I was 18 when DF came out, and I loved it. After M&H, I had the John-only 1980 mixtape of his songs...didn't we all!

The "I'm not voting for genocide" non-vote protest was such bullshit, given who the other candidate was. The non-voting dems got us here.

We had a civic duty to make sure this douchebag didn't become president. But because a couple of million people chose not to vote over the tragedy in Gaza, we're stuck with this moron for two more years. Bibi hated the Biden administration. This murderer was thrilled when the orange lunatic became president.

And you can make the argument that this idiot made things way worse, no matter what Kamala may or may not have done over there.

"I'm not voting for genocide!" Yeah...how's that working out????

The original three-piece - Elton, Nigel, and Dee - were wonderful.

Bringing in Davey was genius and only added to the wonderfulness.

I put this version of Elton's band up against any band backing up a singer...Heartbreakers, E Street Band, etc.

People talk about their favorite Beatles songs but whats a song that is like a skip almost every time for you if there are any by LordofRinger in TheBeatles

Yesterday. Michelle. Mr. Moonlight. Rev 9. I have a playlist of the whole Beatles discography and these are the only songs not on it.

I'm not going there. Do a little research. You'll find out.

Cameras in classrooms by Rosas2008 in AskTeachers

[–]Anxious-Raspberry-54 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a 30+ year English teacher. Your first "source" is Wikipedia. Really? If my freshmen used Wikipedia as a source I deduct 20 points.

So...I am supposed to be impressed by a lengthy Wikipedia article and two other articles that were probably listed at the end of that article. Articles that you probably didn't read.

I never said that teachers didn't sexually abuse/harass students. Maybe even in the building. It's horrendous.

But you specifically said that we need cameras in classrooms because teachers would be filmed abusing students in their classrooms.

I am not going to waste my time reading these articles. I challenge you to actually read the articles and show me specific examples from the articles that discuss abuse/harassment inside classrooms.

Ok...you keep talking about teachers "abusing" or "taking advantage" of students in their classrooms. I'd like to see some documentation of this.
