What do we really learn in High School?



  • How to focus intently on a problem until it's solved.
  • The benefit of postponing short-term satisfaction in exchange for long-term success.
  • How to read critically.
  • The power of being able to lead groups of peers without receiving clear delegated authority.
  • An understanding of the extraordinary power of the scientific method, in just about any situation or endeavor.
  • How to persuasively present ideas in multiple forms, especially in writing and before a group.
  • Project management. Self-management and the management of ideas, projects and people.
  • Personal finance. Understanding the truth about money and debt and leverage.
  • An insatiable desire (and the ability) to learn more. Forever.
  • Most of all, the self-reliance that comes from understanding that relentless hard work can be applied to solve problems worth solving

Toyota 1995 Camry Alarm Reset

In the 1995 Toyota Camry, if the power goes out for a replacement battery or for another reason the Alarm will reset and will not allow you to start the car. If you have a remote key then you would be able to reset the alarm just using the remote. However in the case that the remote is missing, you will have to use the alarm reset toggle located on the left side driver panel next to where your left foot would set. The small, thin toggle is pointing down. To Reset: Make sure power is on and powering all electronics. put key in ignition and turn all the way to the right, next to the point the car would normally turn on. Leave key to the right. Within 5 seconds, push the toggle in opposite direction it is currently set. Push the toggle to the original position. Turn key to the left and remove. Re-insert the key and hopefully start the car. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXArL1ydwps

When You See the Police Car If a police car is following you with its siren blaring or emergency lights flashing, pull over to the right safely and quickly. Pull over in a way that will be most likely to calm down an angry or annoyed traffic officer. Use your turn signal to indicate any lane changes from left to right, and slow down fairly quickly, but not so quickly that the officer will have to brake to avoid hitting you. Pull over as far to the right as possible so that, when the officer comes up to your widow, he or she won't have to worry about being clipped by vehicles in the right lane. By stopping as soon as you can, you'll have a better chance of figuring out exactly where the officer says you committed a violation. You...
