Pricing for LanSchool starts at $299 for classrooms with fewer than 10 computers. Licenses for classrooms with 10 or more computers run $599. The upgrade is free for current users. The software works only on Windows.

Had to do two separate orders. Needed to wipe browser cookies after first order and create another V.me account with other card and email (Mastercard works too you know) for the code to be valid again. Otherwise, it says the coupon can only be used once.
Thanks op!

Horribly unimpressed with that grey swivel (Axle) 16GB model -- bought it -- it sucks, bad. Is red any better?
(also still cheaper on NewEgg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Pro...-na&cm_sp=)
Site keeps kicking me back to cart when finalizing checkout -- no error given. Weird.

Alexandria, Va. -- The rapid proliferation of 3-D printing technology in the early 2000s sent ripples of excitement through the tech world and beyond, but the high price of printers put them out of reach for most academic researchers and hobbyists. Now, more affordable printers have broken this barrier, and geoscientists have started testing the waters.
From the delicate geometry of a crystal lattice to the sweeping strata of an anticline, geology is an inherently 3-D discipline. Three-dimensional printing offers the chance to make those structures replicable, communicable and malleable. And it can make objects themselves "open source," enabling wider access to specimens for students and giving researchers the power to handle and manipulate the natural features they study. Read more about how geoscientists are using 3-D printing to transform their science in the September issue of EARTH Magazine: http://bit.ly/1p1SgX6.
For more stories about the science of our planet, check out EARTH magazine online or subscribe at http://www.earthmagazine.org. The September issue, now available on the digital newsstand, features stories about the dangers of living in the shadow of the world's largest active volcano, Mauna Loa, the risks to geoscientists of contracting Valley Fever in the field, and a new historical look at the sometimes-serial approach of earthquakes in the Bay Area, plus much, much more.
Keep up to date with the latest happenings in Earth, energy and environment news with EARTH magazine online at: http://www.earthmagazine.org/. Published by the American Geosciences Institute, EARTH is your source for the science behind the headlines.
The American Geosciences Institute is a nonprofit federation of 49 geoscientific and professional associations that represents more than 250,000 geologists, geophysicists and other earth scientists. Founded in 1948, AGI provides information services to geoscientists, serves as a voice of shared interests in the profession, plays a major role in strengthening geoscience education, and strives to increase public awareness of the vital role the geosciences play in society's use of resources, resiliency to natural hazards, and interaction with the environment.

Talkative, boisterous little tag-along companions are a videogame staple, so learn to love them. Monster Hunter Tri, which will be released later this month on Wii, introduces Cha-Cha, a goofy, masked child of the "Shakalaka tribe" who has mysterious intentions and an insatiable desire to dance. We figure he's probably just itching to go hang out with Navi and Borderlands' Claptraps.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

When you're buying a used car, you'll end up paying more than the sticker price. Automotive experts discuss some of the additional fees to expect.
The RV industry, which expects to see positive sales growth for the sixth straight year in 2015, has transformed to offer vehicles for all walks of life.
One of a series of stories on the advantages and disadvantages of buying a new car, buying a used car or leasing, this story focuses on the leasing option.
Angie's Answers
For donation options, here is a link to a prior response -
For sale, here is another answer I previously gave to same type question -
Sounds like your biggest problem will be narrowing your list to a limited number of models, and deciding what brand names you are willing to consider to narrow the field.
You can search for websites blogging complaints for each model you are considering to see how they rate with users, and you can also go to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website at www.nhtsa.gov to see how many recalls there have been on a specific model and year.
Most dealers these days have websites with their listed prices for new and used cars that you can browse to get an idea of available listed prices.
I would also recommend that you check out the used car values (free) for models you might be interested in on www.edmunds.com and on Kelley Blue Book - www.kbb.com
Those 2 sources will give you a lot of negotiating power, because they list what the dealer pays the manufacturer on new cars, shows what people have been paying for each vehicle model and model year, and shows used valuations also. There are undoubtedly other such sources also - these are just the ones I have used and seem to be the best known.

When we're stressed out, we're just not ourselves. All that tension can really affect our moods and make us feel irritated, sad, and frustrated. It can also affect our bodies, making us tired, nauseous, or just plain lethargic. For some of you, sex may be the last thing on your mind, but studies show that sharing intimacy with another can actually be beneficial in dealing with stress. So what's your take on sex when you're stressed? Does it calm your nerves or make you more uneasy?

It depends on whats stressing me out. If I'm feeling upset because someone personally insulted or attacked me then it's the last thing I want. If I've just had a long hard shift at work then bring it!

When I am stressed, I am not focused on the other person, so I would rather do something else to de-stress....I try not to bring it into the bedroom.

I could have just lost an arm and still want to have sex! seems like nothing can hinder my sex drive. Like princess_eab, I get stressed when I'm not getting any. My boyfriend lives 45 minutes away and usually we have to set aside certain days to hang out -- I look forward to them!!!!

It stresses me out to NOT have sex! but it's also a mark of a good connection - so if things are going well and I feel like I can communicate my stresses to my partner, then sex is definitely going to happen.

I usually need to talk about what's stressing me before I can even get in the mood for sex. I don't mean have a conversation with the bf. I just like him to sit there and let me spew it all out. Then he can do what he does to make me feel all better.

It depends. Sometimes I'm just so stressed that it's impossible to get in the mood. But, sex is a great stress reliever, so I try and forget all my worries in the bedroom.

normally if i'm stressed about something other than my significant other (like work or school) i try to forget about those stressers when i see that person. my boyfriend now always makes me forget my worries and i just spend time with him happily by putting other things out of my mind. so in that case, getting intimate isn't hindered by the stress. in general, i think i'm okay with it! unless what i'm stressed about is fighting with him or something, then no!

Sex is my greatest stress reliever! It relaxes me and lets me forget about what is stressing me out for a little while. I highly recommend it =)

Abortion should NOT be legal. There are countless women in this world that can't have children or are struggling to concieve...women should deliver the babies - and allow the child to live a life. Just because 2 adults are not ready to care for a child doesn't mean that abortion is the only option.
As a mother, I know how much joy my son has brought me...and believe me - if there is a woman out there that doesn't want their child - there are equally as many women out there that are dying to have one. Allow your child to be loved if not by you, then by another family.
Absolutely not. He is a public figure, and a poor role model for young boys aspiring to be like NFL players. While I believe he has served his time, I don't think the commissioner should "reward" him by allowing him to make millions again...Sorry Mike.
No, he shouldn't. While I believe that the woman was wrong for tricking the man, I don't believe that abortion is the only option. If the man can provide proof that he has been tricked, he shouldn't be legally responsible to support the child...unless he wants to. Why should the child lose out because his/her mom is a poor decision maker?
I am probably a good person but I haven't taken the time to fill out my profile, so you'll never know!

Matthew Holt, a transplanted Englishman, hangs out in San Francisco, where he preaches the gospel of government-directed care and care transmitted to consumers via Health 2.0. He is a co-founder of Health 2.0, and he directs The Health Care Blog, a widely read blog where he occasionally features my work. In any event, here is his take on the necessity of health reform.
Senate Passes Bill, More To Come
By MATTHEW HOLT
It's Christmas Eve and the Senate just passed a major health reform bill. Personally I think the reforms in it are relatively minor, but the passage of the bill itself is a screaming big deal. When I say minor, what I mean is that we're leaving in place the inefficient employment-based health benefits system, and we're expanding insurance mostly by putting more people into the separate but equal Medicaid program.
But this bill is a statement, and an important one.
For the first time we're acknowledging that everyone ought to have health insurance and that those unable to afford it should be subsidized by the government. We're also saying that insurance companies should take all comers at a consistent price without respect to health condition (and hopefully we're implying that their job is to manage care not risk-select). Finally we're saying that the majority of the cost can be paid for by redirecting inefficient spending within the health care system, and by taxing benefits that are only tax-free because of historical accident.
Building on those principles it may be possible to get us to a more equitable and more efficient health care system."
KARL ROVE: "Real Price of The Senate Health Bill," The Wall Street Journal
Karl Rove, the so-called architect of conservative politics thinks differently than Matthew Holt. He calls the Senate Health plan a "monstrosity" - a government "gift that will keep on taking."
Here is his statistical thinking on why government will take more than it will give,
1. It will keep on taking taxes in these yearly increments from 2010 to 2019 (in billions of dollars) - 1.9 (2010) 7.1 (2011), 9.1 (2012), 32.6 (2013), 39.3 (2014), 57.5 (2015(, 75.9 (2016)*, 88.6 (2017), 98.9 (2018), 106.8 (2019)
2. It will keep on cutting Medicare (in billions of dollars) - 0.4 (2010), 9.9(2011), 15.9 (2012), 25.1 (2013), 48.4 (2014),51.3 (2015), 58.8 (2016)*, 74.5 (2017), 80.6 (2018), 106.8 (2019)
3. It will keep on increasing spending (in billions of dollars) - 2 (2010), 4(2011), 5 (2012), 6 (2013), 60 (2014), 99 (2015), 151 (2016)*, 172 (2017), 184 (2018), and 199(2019)
Please note the Rove factors - more taxes, more Medicare cuts, more spending - escalate about 2016, the year after Obama would leave office if he were to be re-elected in 2012. But taxes start up now, Medicare cuts crank up after next fall's election, subsidies for the uninsured and underinsured commence in earnest in 5 years. The total cost is not $871 billion, says Rove, but $2.4 trillion if you count tax credits and Medicaid expansion.
For progressives, the government giveth; for conservatives,the government taketh away.
So much for the give and take of politics, as seen from the left and right.

And I don't think only acceptance go out first. So far yeah there are acceptances that been mailed out last week but I'm sure there were denial letters too. It wouldn't be fair to only mail out acceptance first. Denial letters should also be notify in advance also. Not everyone read or go on this forum. So, we can't really determine that only acceptable went out. Just saying...
