6500 times more radiation being detected at a well. http://rt.com/news/fukushima-high-radioactivity-well-335/

That was awesome. Good job, Dave.

Funding shouldn't come from property taxes. It only fuels a very unbalanced education system. We need to go to a flat tax for schools. Everyone pays their share, and it gets split up per student. Then offer a voucher worth X percent of the per-student allotment for folks who want to send their kids to private school. Issue solved. While you're at it, I think there should be statewide support systems such as IT. So much money is wasted by each district having their own data centers, equipment, hosting, etc. If they joined forces, a lot of money could be saved.

Weird. I read it every day. Never seen this until today.

Just started seeing this today. Do they really think people are going to pay to read the Dispatch online AND have all those ads?

http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/local/2013/10/16/columbus-schools-deficit-is-gone.html So all of these commercials on TV about the dire need for money and this big push for passing the ballot was *gasp* a waste of money.

It quickly detaches from the keyring. Removing keys not required.

That's not what I expected from you. Bravo.

http://uk.prweb.com/releases/2013/10/prweb11201273.htm This promises to be an entertaining thread. But please, keep it civil.

I know, it's not even Halloween yet. I came across these and thought they'd be great (and hopefully never useful) for the family. So hey, why not start a thread on good stocking stuffer ideas? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042VVKD4/

A year later and still one of the most impressive things I've ever witnessed. This is up there with the birth of my son.

Yup. My favorite was back when I had the ZX10. Rolling down my street at about 20 MPH. Guy comes running out of his house to tell me to slow down. Apparently if it's loud and sporty, it must be speeding.

An old friend of mine just unpacked from a trip and found a live 7.62.39 round in his carry-on. That was an accident. Imagine what criminals could slip through on purpose.

I'm not sure if you're joking or serious. Have you read the comment on NBC4i, 10TV, etc?
