Quite a few in daughter’s PhD program worked outside jobs. Her stipend was in the mid- to upper 30s (major metro on East coast, but not an ivy). Housing was not included. She made extra $ working in a comms lab, but it wasn’t a lot—I still sent her what I could every month. The amount of lab...

Regarding the parents’ bankruptcies and BK’s education path: BK would be able to borrow up to full cost of attendance with private student loans at the MA and even PhD level, even with tuition waiver and a modest stipend. I’m curious if he may be providing some support to family, especially if...

With regards to calling and potentially meeting up with her friend Rose, the friend she fled to multiple times in rough times. Could the fight(s) plus the imminent contact & meet up with Rose compounded his urgency for taking radical steps or going over the edge to make sure that didn’t happen...

This path did not work for us. Some years ago, a relative repeatedly threatened to ‘take people out with him’; he got 72 hours and out after 2 days. At release, was recommended he get therapy; instead, left the state. He terrorized my mother and children for years afterward. We tried multiple...

Also, use of your DNA could theoretically affect future generations for insurance, etc. Years ago, MIL had genetic testing as part of a study. Even then I was disturbed, because the inheritable disease they were studying could have ramifications if data was misused later. Also, privacy rules...

Many states do not have reciprocity agreements. CO does not have a provisional/temp certificate, and many states require additional coursework to be completed to teach in that state. National certification is expense & takes a while - it's a big deal to earn it. So, unless Sarah was going to...

Years ago, hubby took one of our kids skating when she was ~7. She got tired (later turned out to be ear inf), started crying, so hubby heads to parking lot, with sobbing child in tow, and comes home. Within 10 minutes of them getting home & daughter calmed down in her room, police were on...

I have friends and family members where they cannot access inheritance until certain milestones - graduating college, age of 30 or 60 (at the time, the guy was in his 20s!). Also, doled out as an allowance by a trustee not related to them, where they stuck to the rule book. Basics may have been...

According to ABC news, Nikolas Cruz was adopted, and both adoptive parents are dead (prior to, and not in conjunction with, this tragedy). http://abcnews.go.com/amp/US/florida-school-shooting-suspect/story?id=53092753 "A family member of the suspect told ABC News that Nikolas was adopted by...

That is a TelePrompTer on a stand for the media guy that's standing just to the right, with the mic. Zoom in, you can see it attached to stand & distinctive curved edges. IMO Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This was on our local news - BIZARRE coincidence of a woman who, 20 years ago, was held hostage in Perris, along with 15 kids. Crazy ex was perp; if he got 7 life sentences for 6 months of holding *them* hostage, here's hoping DT-LT get much, much more...

I'm a long-time Mensa member (and long-time WS lurker!). Respectfully disagree that he would have qualified, but agree on the conforming & sloppiness. Spurred to respond because that has jumped out at every event I've gone to in the last 25+ years. Also, to other posters' points, our family has...

Taking a broader view, and I'm gonna present this as neutrally as I can: 1) VP is former governor of Indiana; and, 2) FBI has been getting a ton of political heat lately. 3) A highly-visible 'win' getting an arrest in an horrific & emotionally-loaded crime would benefit both swift justice and...

Hmmm. What a pair THEY must've made at the restaurant. This is the woman who was identified in the court documents as being the assault victim at IHOP. Michelle M. Gjika, 42, of 21 Bowen Road, Peabody, was arrested at 2:34 a.m. by Patrolman Thomas Hennessey and hit with three charges of...

Unten(ure)able behavior? :crazy:

Is it possible to reopen the case if they think it was a homicide?? Can it be changed from accidental to some kind of prosecute-able charge? Gawd, every day there's something even freakier about this woman. On the IHOP thing - one of the commenters in the Huntsville or Boston paper said...

~Always, two of the girls go/went to Lee High School in Huntsville. Thea won a poetry contest in 9th grade in Trellis Magazine. http://trellismagazine.wordpress.com/2008/09/04/young-poets-showcase-2/ "Pink Cakes and White Ponies" Phaedra was an honorable mention in an essay contest for the...

I remember reading about this guy when the Nobel was awarded...thing is, he sounded gracious, humble, and like a decent human being. "The way she saw it, her life had two roads: Be a tenured professor or drive a bus. Amy Bishop, the troubled neurobiology professor at University of Alabama...

ThoughtFox, you and me both. Ugh, same here - we live in a tight-knit university neighborhood. There was a woman down the street whose husband had passed away, and she had 3-4 kids. Eventually re-married a nutcase. The kids never came out to play after that. He would complain about a...
