“Nonetheless, Southwest did investigate the matter and as a result, ceased paying Mr. Southwest spokesperson Chris Mainz said in a statement that the airline “does not tolerate behavior of this nature and will take prompt action if such conduct is substantiated.” Southwest only learned of Haak's behavior after he voluntarily left the airline, according to Mainz. 31, 2020, three weeks after the incident that led to the criminal charge. His last flight for the Dallas-based airline was on Aug. Haak, a resident of Longwood, Florida, was a Southwest Airlines pilot for 27 years until his retirement. The judge wasn't bound by that recommendation. He was charged in Maryland because it was one of the states that the aircraft passed over that day.įederal prosecutors agreed to recommend a sentence of probation without requiring Haak to register as a sex offender. Haak was charged in April with intentionally committing a lewd, indecent or obscene act in a public place, a misdemeanor punishable by a maximum of 90 days in jail. “She had a right not to be subjected to this kind of behavior, regardless of what may have motivated it or prompted it,” the prosecutor said. “This is not the kind of aberrant behavior that anyone should accept,” the prosecutor added.Ĭunningham said the first officer “unfortunately suffered some consequences” as a result of the incident that Haak “didn’t have anything to do with,” but he didn’t elaborate. Haak “had a duty to comport himself in a much more responsible manner,” Assistant U.S. The judge told Haak that his actions had a traumatic effect on the co-pilot and could have impacted the safety of passengers and other co-workers. The first officer submitted a statement to the court but didn’t speak during Friday's hearing. “As the plane continued its flight, Haak further engaged in inappropriate conduct in the cockpit, as the first officer continued to perform her duties as an assigned aircrew member,” the statement says. After the plane reached its cruising altitude, Haak got out of the pilot’s seat, “disrobed” and began watching pornographic material on a laptop computer in the cockpit, prosecutors said. I never imagined it would turn into this in a thousand years,” Haak said during a remote hearing.įederal prosecutors said in a news release that Haak had never met the first officer before that flight bound for Orlando on Aug. ![]() “It started as a consensual prank between me and the other pilot. Mark Coulson sentenced him to one year of unsupervised probation and a $5,000 fine. Michael Haak, 60, apologized and expressed remorse for his actions before U.S. – A retired Southwest Airlines pilot was sentenced to probation Friday after pleading guilty to exposing his genitals to a female first officer and watching pornography on a laptop during a flight from Philadelphia to Florida last year.

From swinging ships to flying planes and junior coasters, adventure awaits. No matter your kid’s age and comfort level, there’s something for all with varying height requirements. ![]() Kid-Friendly RidesĪside from daring heights, there are also plenty of kid-friendly rides. Six flags Discovery Kingdom welcomes all ages. While many rides make you scream, there are also tame rides for little ones. Although safely strapped with a lap bar, you’ll feel like flying in the air. The 45-second ride has a height requirement of 52 inches, and younger children will need to be accompanied by an adult. Not only will you ride outside the track, but you’ll also go upside down. Then, finally, you’ll swivel on top of the loop through many twists and loops. However, just as you build momentum, you’ll race backward. Start by launching through a tunnel to 62 miles per hour in seconds. At 150 feet tall, it’s one of the best steel coasters. BATMAN: The RideĪnother superhero ride that won’t disappoint is SUPERMAN Ultimate Flight. From Batman and Superman rides to Kong, Six Flags Discovery Kingdom has you covered. Discover fast speeds, tall hills, and unique experiences that’ll leave you breathless. Six Flags Discovery Kingdom offers an incredible selection. Let’s uncover some of the best rides at the park. Before you know it, you’ll be riding some of the best roller coasters at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Although, there are add-ons when purchasing one-day tickets.Īdd-ons for one-day tickets include the following: The parking fee is separate unless you upgrade your annual membership. However, there’s no discount for kids above this age. The best part is if you have young kids two and under, they’ll get in for free. Six Flags tickets are flexible, and tickets are valid for any day during the season. ![]() Plus, you’ll save money, and pre-purchasing tickets is easy and convenient. While you can buy tickets at the gate, you can also purchase tickets online. However, you’ll want the one-day ticket option if you live out of state. So, it’s an excellent option if you don’t want to commit. A seasonal pass is valid through the calendar year. If the yearly membership is too much, perhaps a seasonal pass is right for you. The Six Flags Discovery Kingdom annual membership is a monthly payment. If you live nearby, the yearly membership will get you more bang for your buck. There are several ticket options and packages Six Flags offers. ![]() He’s absolutely FUCKED (positive) and by far one of the most messed up creeps.

I may make creepypasta smut, but I do truly love the potential and artistry of creepypasta □□□ They have been expanded upon not just through their original stories but from their visuals alone.ĪND there are plenty of new creepypasta characters and stories that are taking that creative spirit of the originals and just running with it! Same with Slender Man, Jeff the Killer, and many of the other most famous CP. But there’s no denying that THIS visual is awesome! Most Creepypasta has been criticized as being poorly written, but for me, its visuals were the BIGGEST strong suit.įor example, Eyeless Jack is not very well written. I love Candle Cove, Ted the Caver and The Expressionless. I would prefer if they made their own world and characters, like Candle Cove.Īnd speaking of Candle Cove, time to list my favorite creepypastas! (人◕ω◕) Things like “Rugrats, but it’s messed up” or “Sonic, but it’s messed up”… There’s not a whole lot of creativity to these. I’m not really a big fan of taking something that is super well known and just making a ‘messed up’ version of it (with the exception of Ben Drowned, Lavender Town and NES Godzilla.

So for this commission, my friend wanted a little comic of Riley stretching their jaw really wide to eat the villain of the story that tries way too hard to be frightening to the point where he's trying way too hard, Tommy Taffy, (like they do with the pizza delivery guy in the first episode of Less is Morgue ) while Evelyn cheers her friend on with pom poms (with Evelyn's bubbly personality, I think it would be fitting if she tried cheerleading while she was alive.

I have nothing against author Elias Witherow, as he is clearly a talented writer. Creepypasta riffs - Third ParentOkay, I am going to get a LOT of flack for this riff, as this is one of the most popular stories ever posted on r/nosleep. If anyone wants more detail, my friend did a riff on the nosleep story here - but be warned, it gets VERY messed up. Long story short, this is one of those stories that tries way too hard to be scary and haphazardly throws in some really icky subject matter just for the sake of it out of nowhere, including some overly detailed descriptions of molestation that goes into WAY too much detail to the point where it just feels like it's put in for shock value. My friend told me a bit of trivia that many of the cast members involved with Less is Morgue also worked on the Nosleep Podcast, and that meant that because some of them worked on nosleep as well, that means there is a link between Less Is Morgue and a nosleep story that both me and my friend really dislike, Third Parent.

Stopping the spreadĪvian flu is rare, to the point the last major outbreak happened in 2015.

Charles Broaddus with the Virginia Department of Agriculture. “We are not sure where or how, but it is spreading from wild birds to the flocks,” said state veterinarian Dr. And in the middle of migration season, that’s only expected to keep growing. State officials say they’re not sure what started this outbreak, but it’s now moving from wild birds to local flocks. These birds can be carriers and even though they can be unaffected by it, spread the sickness through their droppings. This particular strain is believed to be carried and transmitted by waterfowl. The avian flu, just as it sounds, is an influenza strain that affects birds. But now that it’s here, with at least one confirmed case this month in Central Virginia, what does that mean and how can farmers protect their flocks? Instead, we’re just now starting to see the effects of an outbreak that started months ago, cases of avian flu. In fact, egg prices are up 49.1% compared to last year, except this part can’t be blamed on inflation. Just two months earlier, you could buy the same thing in Farmville for $1.72.

News and discussions relating to George R. ![]() The trend was reversed, however, on tests for originality and elaboration. In a study testing for creative functioning that involved monolingual and bilingual children in Singapore, researchers found that monolinguals performed better on fluency and flexibility than bilinguals. Bilingual children and monolingual children have the same vocabulary size and gain the same vocabulary knowledge. Despite a variation in vocabulary scores, there was absolutely no difference between monolingual and bilingual children in terms of total vocabulary size and total vocabulary gains (Core et al., 2011). Monolingual children demonstrated larger vocabulary scored than their bilingual peers, but bilingual children's vocabulary scores still increased with age, just like the monolingual children's vocabulary scores (Core et al., 2011). ![]() Bilinguals may have smaller vocabularies in each individual language, but when their vocabularies were combined, the content size was approximately similar to that of the monolingual. While monolinguals may excel in vocabulary size for the one language they speak, their vocabulary content is not greater. It is important to note here that bilinguals' overall vocabulary size in both languages combined was equivalent to monolinguals' in one language. Thus, once vocabulary abilities were controlled, bilinguals performed better on letter fluency possibilities by the enhanced frontal executive processes in the brain. The same study also found that bilinguals, in a version of the letter fluency task that placed more demand on executive control, performed better than monolinguals. If the vocabulary abilities were made to be more comparable, however, many of the differences would disappear, indicating that vocabulary size may be a factor that moderated a person's performance in verbal fluency and naming tasks. In letter fluency tasks, monolinguals in the study were also able to respond with more words to the letter cue than bilinguals, but such an effect was not seen in bilinguals with a high vocabulary score.Īlso, monolinguals performed better than bilinguals on verbal fluency in the study. Monolinguals also access words more often than bilinguals in a target language. Comparison with multilingualism Vocabulary size and verbal fluency Īccording to a study on lexical access, monolinguals often maintain a wider vocabulary in a target language relative to a comparable bilingual, and that increases the efficiency of word retrieval in monolinguals. Īnother explanation is that the nations who speak the English language are both “the producers and beneficiaries of English as a global language” and the populations within these countries tend to be monolingual. One explanation is provided by Edwards, who in 2004 claimed that evidence of the "monolingual mindset" can be traced back to 19th century Europe, when the nation was rising and a dominant group had control, and European mindsets on language were carried forth to its colonies, further perpetuating the monolingual mindset. Crystal (1987) said that this assumption is adopted by many in Western society. The assumption of normative monolingualism is also often the view of monolinguals who speak a global language, like the English language. Monolingualism is thus rarely the subject of scholarly publications, as it is viewed to be an unmarked or prototypical concept where it has the sense of being normal and multilingualism is the exception. This statement reflects the traditional assumption that linguistic theories often take on: that monolingualism is the norm. Suzzane Romaine pointed out, in her 1995 book Bilingualism, that it would be weird to find a book titled Monolingualism. Multilingual speakers outnumber monolingual speakers in the world's population. ![]() Note that mono glottism can only refer to lacking the ability to speak several languages. In a different context, "unilingualism" may refer to a language policy which enforces an official or national language over others.īeing monolingual or unilingual is also said of a text, dictionary, or conversation written or conducted in only one language, and of an entity in which a single language is either used or officially recognized (in particular when being compared with bilingual or multilingual entities or in the presence of individuals speaking different languages). Monoglottism ( Greek μόνος monos, "alone, solitary", + γλῶττα glotta, "tongue, language") or, more commonly, monolingualism or unilingualism, is the condition of being able to speak only a single language, as opposed to multilingualism. ![]() ![]() “Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, governed by World Wide Web Consortium, covers a wide range of recommendations for making web content more accessible.

It takes only one click to create a flashcard from a text highliht. Creating flashcards has been reduced to a minimum here□. When it comes to productivity, Polar is ahead of the others. I don't care what tool I study with or how I learn. Let us now turn to the productivity factor. Polar also allows you to completely automate the flashcard creation process using AI. Besides flashcards, you can create notes and build a knowledge base from your reading. Polar’s uniqueness that you can create flashcards directly from PDFs, web pages and EPUBs. Polar, on the other hand, is one of the newer tools out there when it comes to flashcards. Another point where Brainscape goes further than Quizlet is the use of Spaced Repetition. Right from the beginning of the website, you notice the tool is geared toward professionals rather than college or high school students. ![]() One reason for this is the difference in the target audience. The difference, however, is that the themes of the presets are a bit more professional than those of Quizlet.

Were you able to answer the question well, moderately, or poorly?□ This is crucial for when the question comes back again and how quickly the information is written to your long-term memory. The important thing here is that the tool should give you the option to take your proficiency into account. Now you can review it regularly and based on your knowledge of the information, schedule another review at a later stage. You take the important information and make a flashcard out of it. So what’s a good workflow? Ideally, you have your document in one tab with a flashcard program next to it. Thus, the learned material is stored more efficiently in the long-term memory and less so in the short-term memory, which is the case, for example, if you simply read through the same material 10 times the day before the exam □♂️□.
