It might be overheating due to lack of ventilation. It's always good to have atleast 8 inches free to all sides for ventilation. This is especially important to the back of the ps4 since that is where the fans exhaust the hot air. Also does the shelf have an opening in the back for the hot air to escape?

Why was Ickey put in custody? I thought that's what a concealed carry was supposed to do? Fire back to shorten the shooting and quell the shooter. That's what I constantly read atleast... Isn't he a hero?

This is a cross post from a thread that was in the O-T Lounge but I wanted to get y'all's opinion on a question that I had.

What do you think Josh's adult life is like. I thought about this when I watched it a little while ago. How mad is he going to be when he grows up, goes to college, and can not land the same caliber of job he gave up as a kid? He had a dream set up. Good money, extravagant penthouse in Manhattan, a job he loved, and a boss that thought he could do no wrong,and a nice, intelligent, and good looking woman.

What do you think a sequel would look like? My take would be dark where the best job he can land is some crappy job he hates and he goes on a killing spree. Then Again I am a cynical guy.

Kind of fun to think of "Falling Down" as the sequel to big?

Interesting. One thing I would point out is that it is even cheaper for them to have them in D-league. The salary is not

Only quoting a portion of the quote in hopes that it is understood by the readers to mean something completely different than intended due to a lack of situational context. You sir have a great future in 24 hour news media.

-Definitely addicted to technology...good lord they will not stop messing with their phones. I think a lot of people, regardless of age, are having trouble with putting their smartphones down, but 18-22 year-olds elevate distraction to an art form. There have been times where I've had to give one of them a nudge and a "are you kidding me?" look because they're messing with their phones while a highly respected professional is addressing them as a small group.

-Lack of soft skills like punctuality. I think this goes hand in hand with technology. Kids these days have so much information at their fingertips that they don't feel the need to honor commitments or prepare. Decide you don't want to meet someone anymore? No problem! Just send them a quick text "hey i had something come up. sorry :(". Even though email is still fairly new, email etiquette is disintegrating quickly because they all use social media to communicate. I was dumbfounded to learn that some students only check their email once a week. My response was "You know that when you get a job, your boss isn't going to send you assignments via Facebook right?"

-Cannot think critically. I think this is an indictment of No Child Left Behind and the rise of standardized testing. I joke to people that if I told one of my students to drive their car from one place to another and they ran out of gas on the way there, they would complain that I never told them they had to stop to fill up. They have a great deal of trouble getting from point A to point C without providing them with point B as a guide. They always want to know exactly what they need to do. Implied tasks don't exist anymore with this generation. I think schools are doing kids a disservice with all this standardized testing BS. Teachers just tell students exactly what they need to know for the tests. The student follow directions and study what the teachers tell them to.

UGATiger26 gets it. I too reinforce that these are generalizations and do not apply to all. But as a College Professor, I can definitely agree with the third aspect. I do not think critical thinking is all but lost. However, no child left behind has taken it out of the classroom environment. Education is now unfortunately about rote learning and the end degree outweighs the means (education) of getting there. Students want a roadmap and do not understand that the true factor of an education is the ability to add something to knowledge and not just follow it.

You don't get what he's suggesting, they chant STTDB during and only during the piped in music and not while the band is playing. All band songs get reinstated and piped in music gets banned.

---

While that is a good strategy in theory...With our new speaker system you can easily drown out the student section and with a much better result than with the student band. Also, just pick music that does not have a relatively 'low' or 'quiet' chorus or section.

To get to another point. If this is the only way the SEC is trying to counter the growing decline of student attendance I do not think it will be enough. Allowing alcohol sales as well as the incorporation of technology to the game experience will be the major way in my mind to bring student's back. The student's of today have grown up in a world of constant mass media and technology. The simple draw of the game is not enough to keep their attention. NOW GET OFF MY LAWN!

Nice points slackster. I agree with all of them.

I just don't see the normal cliche of hart being the killer in big reveal in the last episode either. I also don't think the grandfather will be involved, that seems to a little too easy writing too.

Here is a link to a must read interview with the writer. LINK

You guys might be over thinking it a bit much.

I’ve enjoyed reading people theorize about what’s going to happen because it’s a sign that you’re connecting. But I’m also sort of surprised by how far afield they’re getting. Like, why do you think we’re tricking you? It’s because you’ve been abused as an audience for more than 20 years. The show’s not trying to outsmart you. And really if you pay attention… if someone watches the first episode and really listens, it tells you 85 percent of the story of the first six episodes.

But does he talk enough trash?

I have always been hesitant with first row because you have to download a player and I am afraid on what else it installs. Is it safe?
