A recent study showed that a majority of students disagree that a student caught cheating should be left unpunished, but they also disagreed with certain punishments like a teacher tearing up their exam in class or giving them a failing grade for the entire semester.

In your opinion, what do you think most students accept as fair punishments for being caught cheating on an exam?

I have worked for my dad in construction on and off sense I was 8, mostly in the summers and have bin given the keys to the work place. (I mostly worked In a retirement community for people 55 and older, where I built the houses and cleaned and helped up-keep the place. There is also and wetland stream, thats 10ish feet wide that runs about 3/4 of a mile long. I cleaned yearly because algae infested it.)

For the past year I have run sound for my church( setting up and tearing down the stage by myself, and mixing the music. I also have bin trusted to the keys to the church.

So do think I could get a job in places like
subway, game stop, and other businesses in that category.

I am 15 and turn 16 on Feb 6, I have looked into the laws and I would be able to legally work where I live and the places I am applying for

thanks a bunch

It's my Father.
Ever since I can remember he's been very manipulating and when he doesn't get his own way becomes abusive emotionally either directly and/or indirectly.
Throughout the yrs. I've TRIED to make this relationship work/it's just way too long of a story to post here.

Ultimately he seems to put a price on his relationships w/his daughters [me inc.] and I'm sick and damn tired of it because this is NOT what life is supposed to be about.
Now he's all mad because he realizes that he has no power over me concerning money anymore [he was always dangling carrots in my face and constantly speaking of his will]
I told him all I wanted was "TIME" [to spend w/him]
However it has always been us going to visit him, then he never keeps his word about visiting me,unless of course I were in the hospital [when I had surgery]

He's mad at me because of this he says he's not giving out Christmas gifts this year. FINE WITH ME!
HOWEVER he'sTAKING IT OUT ON MY SISTERS TOO!
not good!

Im my culture when person A is talking to person B but he calls person B by someone else's name, we say that someone else is talking behind person A's back.

I'm so bummed out about what happened this past season. I'm seriously considering boycotting the program just in protest for the why they handled things with Jag and his withdrawal from the competition. IMHO, once Jag stepped aside, Rory was the only one left standing and should have won by default. But no, they had to go back and bring back Amy. Why didn't they bring back Paul, too? He was clearly impacted by Jag's presence in the competition. I think the whole doggone process was compromised and I'm just aggravated by the whole thing. Anyone else feel that way. BTW, I've watched Amy's show and yes...she did okay. My kid even liked her. But I can't help but remember poor Rory's face..... I think it was so unfair to her.

If you want to grow a plant in an area which has no sunlight, you need special, expensive lamps. The bulbs are obviously what make the units so expensive. I am curious to know specifically what makes these bulbs so very different from normal lightbulbs that you would use in a desk lamp, or the overhead light in the living room.

Thanks.

So I have a cable line going from my wall into a 5-900 MHz 2-way cable splitter. One line goes from there to the tv and the other to my modem then to the router, we have two computers and a 360 connected to the router.

Sometimes even though my computer says its connected, I wont get any sign of connection. And occasionally when I have that problem it says I have a weak signal but not always.

Now the one thing that always fixes the problem is taking the cable line from the wall and putting it right into the modem, the internet always works then.

I have tried a variety of cables and cords and am convinced the problem is 1 of 3 things. I need to know if these sound like they make sense.

Either the cable signal is just too weak to be split one more time, even though we have like 4 or 5 other cable outlets in our house.

Or my specific splitter is just retarded.

Or the fact that the splitter and its 5-900 MHz is just not making the grade.

What do you think?

My question is to anyone out there who's got more experience in big mountain riding.
How can I get faster ???
I was told lean on the front foot and place my bindings slightly
more slalom position(downhill racer style).
Being a surfer for most of my life,I find that binding position somewhat uncomfortable,I prefer the 90deg on back foot and -12 or so on front.
I'm 6'2 and 95kg and looooove the deep pow.
I never do parks as they are a bit boring and trendy.
So just need some technique tips on gaining fast speed without too much physical effort.
On average my casual flat line speed is around 60km P/H,sometimes more but it's tricky depending on the conditions.
You often see these little guys looking super casual but absolutely fly past.
Hope some one can help?
In need of more speed!!

I was contemplating if I should continue an intimate relationship with my daughters father when he comes to visit on the weekends.Thanks to you listeners out there I have decided that I am better than that and should wait for a real man to come along. So what I need from you guys, is words to give me confidence to stand up to him and say no (and actually stick with it), because like you have said in the past.I deserve better.
So bring on the words of wisdom
