How to Squelch Your Inner Jackass

Here’s a story for all you cell phone abusers out there. Too bad you won’t read it, or will think it is your right to impose your conversation on all the other shoppers at the grocery store or on the bus. Page two has some good rules on common courtesy.

Pocatello Community Charter School hosted it’s first Expedition Exhibition in it new building. on Wednesday, January 18th.

The building was completed in time for school to start January 9th.

This site is a podcast of an interview with Paul Nelson.

“Paul Nelson is Technology Director at Riverdale High School in Portland, OR and co-creator of the K-12 Linux Terminal Server Project. K-12 LTSP is a really cool way to take older machines and breathe new life into them by connecting them to a powerful server that takes over the bulk of the computing tasks. For standard Web browsing and Office-like applications, schools can save a bunch of money using thin clients vs. full PCs.

Our podcast should be a pretty good introduction to Linux, open source, and thin client computing. We mention RedHat and Edubuntu, two Linux distributions of particular interest to schools, and the K-12 Linux in School Project which seeks to promote free and open source software in educational settings.”
