It looks like 409 folks looked at this thread and no one posted a school I should reach out to. That is a good thing. As I mentioned, other groups looked into this and I contacted App State Physics and Astronomy Department as well. So with all of that maybe no public schools were damaged by H. Helen...

To the relief of all of my students, and especially future students, I retired last fall. As some of the long time lurkers going back to the Delphi board may remember the App State science departments gave me a van load of equipment after the fire at Eastern Guilford High in 2006. That equipment mov...

I don't follow enough to keep up but when was the last time the Hornets made the playoffs? Seems like it has been some years, even with the amount of teams that make the playoffs. This is a good thing as the more success the Hornets and Panthers have the less attention there will be on UNCC athletic...

Love it…makes me miss when good old J Cline would post humorous threads like this. I was literally thinking about him when I posted this question and I almost named it something like the J Cline Word Choice thread and then I thought that might be a bit harsh as it might have come across a bit less ...

I couldn’t even begin to care what someone thinks of me based on my speech or accent. I generally embrace my voice and accent and such. This might be the one exception, and I am not sure it is an exception where I am concerned as much as I find it interesting. I can't even remember what brought thi...

I grew up in Catawba County and that typically in the Southern Appalachian Highlands accent. I have moved away from wash rag but it still sneaks in. I have to physically think about it when in civilized society so I say wash cloth. My wife from upstate NY likely thought I was a slack-jawed yokel whe...

Wash Cloth....anything else is just uncivilized!!!!!!!! Good luck.

Do you speak Southern Appalachian Highland or were you born east of I-77? (or not in the south east.)

What do you call a piece textile that is about 10 inches by 10 inches and used to clean a body in a shower or bath?

The supply and demand is from the school. I give enough to have the spot I have and like it. But if they have enough people that are willing to pay more for that spot, why turn down that money? Pricing people out of a spot because they can fill that spot by charging more is a good problem for the s...

Parking is simple economics of supply and demand. We don’t have a lot of it so the demand is high. Again, people can do what they want with their money. None of my business and I won’t shame anyone for fiscal responsibility, but the parking price hikes aren’t a hill that I’d die on. I can go park a...

It has been a few down years. We have a 50+ year history. Technically correct saying 50+ but we are two years away form the 100th Anniversary of our first football game. And with very few exceptions we have been winners. Those years in non-NCAA football are important in our history and should be ce...

"Fair Weather" fans. I don't call people who have been season ticket holders for 20, 30, 40, or even 50 years fair weather fans. They will most certainly follow online and on TV. I think some people just look at rising prices and they are making decisions that have become easier with players able t...

If we have learned anything from this fiasco, contracts aren’t worth the ink they are written in. Under the current way of things they are not. Players need to unionize and have a CBA so we can have contracts. Going to have to be like the NFL. If you get unions you get strikes. Do you really want s...

On the contractual idea, I am with Luke 100%. Not sure how contractually it would work, my comment on a thread on YC a long time ago was related to multi year contracts. If I had enough funds to fund several players for nil, I would want a contract that would be multi-year. Player does not get all ...

Looks like it's going to take another Monchery victory for us to have a chance to win the conference

Thanks for posting this given what happened. Keep doing it.

Rev Jesse Jackson has passed away.

I missed the first part of the interview but NPR had a nice interview with a person that worked with Jesse Jackson. It was a nice reflection on the life of a man with NC and Greensboro connections.

We lost out first SoCon match of the season to Chattanooga. 20-13. We play Gardner-Webb on Sunday to wrap up regular season.
