enclose colors key usb pic. as attached.

Here's how I do the math in my head.

1000 pieces is 1410     so half of that is 705

The freight is 150                  705 plus 150  =  $855   for some USB

150.oo/500

cross the zeroes      150/5   = 30 cents each

That's my salary for one week. =  855

500 pieces is about $1.70 each.

Can we talk about "Food for the Brain"? Can we help students learn about nutrition?

Can you imagine that a student spends a month in Bolivia, speaking Spanish, and his Spanish teacher marked him absent.  He was in Bolivia, making do in Spanish.
(from a talk by Dennis Littky)

What if a report had a photo of a person who is not generally considered pretty?

I looked at the image that the Ottawa group selected for their report.  It is often remarked by plastic surgeons that a beautiful face has many average parts.
European features
symmetric features
a profile of a young person
What if the side view had more extreme features?

The Hunchback of Notre Dame?
What physical attributes could we put on the photo so that we are not attracted to the person?
What if we cringe to look at the person?
Wouldn't that be the challenge of the school, to educate a person who did not fit the category of "pleasant to look at" and "Pretty" or "handsome."

I'm thinking about switching to Republic Wireless... just $10 a month

REPUBLIC Wireless
Buy a phone for $250
Pay $10 a month
In one year, I'll spend $370    see the REVIEW on Cash Cow

Current bill with Metro PCS is  $30 a month...  So I'll start saving in one year.   And apparently the phone's camera is okay...
