    Teacher gets fired for giving 0s

    Very common scenario in ND as well (other than the firing part). Teachers are encouraged, and in some cases forced, to not give zeroes even when the student has been given every opportunity to do their work.

    No trespass

    Have run into that a lot as well. Seems a good chunk of the unsigned posted signs I come across are parcels that have absentee ownership. My guess is a fair amount of that land gets posted by adjacent landowners just to keep people out of it or by renters even though they have no plans to hunt...

    No trespass

    I guess I don't feel it would change things much. I find so little unposted land anymore; the only thing this would change is that you'd probably need a mapping program to figure out who the landowner is instead of seeing it on a posted sign (although a good chunk of those don't have a name...

    How to pinpoint the "X"?

    I've never had much luck on foggy mornings. Birds either don't fly or can't see the decoys.

    How to pinpoint the "X"?

    GPS mostly. Google earth on the phone can help, drop a pin on the part of the field they're in. Crazy how turned around in a field a guy can get in the dark. If you've really got time you can wait until the birds leave and then drive out there and drop a waypoint.

    youth waterfowl weekend

    I'm guessing if everyone has their licenses and all you target is canadas you'd be legal?

    Hurricane Evacuation

    I have a couple uncles in the Houston area - one fairly close to the coast in Friendswood who said they had the same approach until they did it. Obviously survived without injury but said it was a miserable couple days.

    Hurricane Evacuation

    Because they have to make it look dramatic on 24 hour news/weather stations.

    changing nonresident bow season

    Don't believe so; couldn't as of a few years ago anyway.

    Watch Your Dog...

    I'm pretty hesitant to hunt in warm weather; just seems like things could go wrong in a hurry. Not to mention most dogs aren't going to be in prime condition this time of year - but even if they are it doesn't mean they're immune. This story is a good reminder

    Humminbird Auto Chart

    I've used it for a couple hours; seemed to work well. If you fished a lake a lot it would probably work out but it would take quite a bit of time to survey more than a few dozen acres so if it's just a lake you fish every once in a while maybe not so much. From what I've read you can store 8...

    That time of year again

    Threads like this remind me why my excitement for waterfowl season is about 1% of what it was 15 years ago.

    Smallmouth Bass

    There has to be some pigs in sak. I've caught a couple ~18" while out deep for walleyes.

    Smooth Moves Air or WavePro 2.0

    Am I seeing correctly that the WavePro is over $700?

    When its a 100 outside

    Was out most of the morning doing some projects in the yard and it was pretty nice but got hot around noon. Can't go outside in comfort at anytime when it's -20 IMO.

    ? Jet ski accident strawberry lake ?

    In these kinds of incidents, I have the one conscience on my shoulder saying "he should get jail time" and the other saying "it was a horrible accident, the guy could have prevented it but what good is jail time going to do?" Terrible deal any way you look at it.

    New dog training

    I don't think too many trainers would suggest full-blown gunfire in the first few months, but it's one of those things that is tough to predict. Most things I've seen suggest loud noises while doing things they enjoy are ok - if they're skittish about it, back off for awhile. I used a cap gun...

    Dozier to the Dodgers!

    I don't think anybody thought the Twins were going to start spending like the Yankees after Target Field was built, but yes I know that was a selling point of the stadium. I did a little research and the Twins' payroll in 2009 was $67M (last year in Metrodome), $98M in 2010 and $113M in 2011...

    Dozier to the Dodgers!

    Reality is, if Sano and Buxton would have performed like they did last year and if Ervin Santana would have been healthy, the Twins would easily be in contention and this wouldn't have all happened. The guys they traded are all average big leaguers with the exception of Dozier and maybe...
