    CLIFTON PARK -- Matthew C. Beighey is a Shenendehowa student with a knack for computers he keeps putting to the wrong uses, police say.

    Last fall, the 16-year-old sophomore was accused of posting personal information on 250 district employees on his personal Web site. And now police say he built an application to shut teachers out of the grading system.

    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    LOL. Seriously though. If you see talent in this direction he would have talent in the other as well. Get him the certifications, send him to college courses, hone that talent then take advantage.

    There is no motive for profit or to solve problems in the public school system, although there is a desire to take advantage of students. *shrug*

    The kid breaks the rules so they should hire him to enforce the rules? *fart*
    an obvious republican political strategy.
    Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
    Proving tax cuts work!

    Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
    The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.
