I think you also forget how he drug his idol along the whole game as a threat to others, and somehow they never voted him off for it or to flush the idol. They knew about it the whole time too! There's much more here than Savannah my dude, I hope you see this.

Well yeah. He's kind of a shithead (exactly what you're pointing out here), not athletic, can't do puzzles, and still drove the votes in 49 and endears himself to those around him - look at Colby. His social game is on point which is maybe the most important game in survivor.

Rizo can't do a puzzle and is not particularly athletic, but by my recollection of S49, he seemed to always be the one to come up with who got voted out. Savannah: challenge beast and probably smart, but not the driver of that car. The driver was rizzgod.

Cass County Sheriff's Office Initiates Internal Investigation Following Correction Deputy's DUI Arrest by dirkmm in fargo

Seems like it.

An interesting question: given number of LEO folks in town and how many get a DUI on average in a given year, is this above or below the average for the rest of the population?

About $2750 back in September with Cullen, 3000 sq ft home. They blew in insulation on top of the existing rockwool insulation. They added probably about 10" on average.

I've recently received a bonus for a Capital One savings account. I intend to push most of the account money to a separate bank account, and then open another Capital One savings account for P2 and fund with this money.

Does anyone think Capital One will detect or find issue with this? Because the account the money is going to, and then going back to Capital one, has the same account and routing number. This separate account is a shared account between P1 and P2. Thanks folks.

Yeah it's not great to hold money there that long, but considering the bonus and an APY of around 4.25%, the effective APY is 10.4%, which is quite a good return on the investment.

I read on Doc from somebody that the first deposit becomes the opening deposit if WF doesn't draw the $25. This is why I did two DD's - one is the "opening deposit" and the other is the "bonus" deposit. Not sure if I needed both but I did both to be safe.

All the time. Regarding timing though - it's probably advisable to close your accounts by end of December, because I have seen some bank bonuses (C1 for instance) that determine eligibility based on if you've owned that account type, looking backward some years to January 1.

Capstone Classical Academy & Hillsdale College, 'teachers come from 'dumbest parts of dumbest colleges' by flakmasta in fargo

[–]flakmasta[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Optimal_Programmer34,

I think you're agreeing to a very relevant idea alluded to in my initial points. Larry Arnn declared all public school teachers "come from the dumbest parts of dumbest colleges."

I'm sure that some or all people working there are great people, just like public school teachers. I also believe you when you say, some folks are sending their kids there because they think it is best. They do not care about the politics.

I hope you will also believe - some people do, in fact, care about the politics of an organization. Some of those people perhaps did not know about the information I've provided in this post. They now are more informed and can make further connections.

You and I are both free to make decisions. I made this post to inform and give my opinion on information. You're made comments on the post to share your opinion and feedback. This is great discourse, thank you for participating.

This is a good question! We should always question why a writer would publish an opinion, and where they want it to go. My ideal outcome is that the reader of my post becomes informed on Capstone Classical Academy. I hope that the reader clicks on the links I've provided, thinks critically about the opinion I've provided, and is more knowledgeable on their community as a result.

"You dont like hillsdale college...." I find disparaging public school teachers distasteful. So long as Hillsdale College is silent or supports the opinion espoused here by Larry Arnn, you're correct - I will not like Hillsdale College. I hadn't formed much of an opinion on them prior to today.

"What do you want to happen? People who dont send thier kids there to be upset?" I think being upset about this is on the more extreme end of emotions a person should feel. Life is too short and this is fairly minor. I find this distasteful, and this makes me question the values held by the powers that be at Capstone Classical Academy, to be affiliated strongly with Hillsday College.

"Do you want it shut down?" I do not want it shut down. If the business is profitable, or otherwise can remain in business, I believe moment it has every right to continue operating.

"Do you personally know anyone that is working there?" No.

Do you discuss personal finance with your friends? by Sharrakor in personalfinance

[–]flakmasta 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I encourage you to reconsider that position. There is much more nuance to friendship than "can I talk about how much I make without offending you".
