Re: Can someone please explain the "executive summary" to me?

Cynette, thank you so much! This was definitely helpful for us. We've been submitting for the past few years, and I was unsure whether the presenters needed to also register online.

Thanks for all...

Re: Can someone please explain the "executive summary" to me?

I have a quick question for everyone as well -- a fellow mentor of mine has asked about whether or not students who are presenting/submitting Chairman's need to be registered online by tonight. Now,...

Re: How long does it take team 126 to get a nice photo? Let's find out!

HAHA!! That was awesome.

I've been a part of film crew for the past 7 years on two different FIRST teams, and yes...it's always like that for team photos!

Very cool video idea. Thinking about doing...

Re: Superbowl + will.i.am + FRC hat

If he DID wear the FIRST logo and/or give a shout out via his lyrics, that's pretty cool.

If he didn't, I'm not quite getting what the big deal is.

I'm too busy thinking about ways that MY team can...

Re: Am I mentor?

As essentially everyone else has said, I must agree that you are indeed a mentor.



I would definitely agree with this (although I understand your predicament with lack of money to do so). The team...

Re: 2010 Midwest Regional

This is the first time in six years that I won't be making it to the Midwest Regional. (Sad, I know!)

I'll be attending Boilermaker with 1720. But I'm still excited to hear all about Midwest. Best...

Re: How do you submit the video?

We use iMovie, which is pretty user-friendly and easy to learn. And, if practiced enough, can create some truly amazing video. With the permission of 1720, I'll post our video after Boilermaker this...

Re: Valentines Day Spotlight?

I'd drive over any bump to get to you.

In the end, you're the one I want hanging next to me.

Re: The correct way to respond to misspelling and grammar

*sigh*

I'm afraid this is another one of those topics in which everyone has his/her own opinion, and we'll never really end up agreeing one way or another.

As for me...

Re: The correct way to respond to misspelling and grammar

I do agree that proper context makes a difference, as the original post made your tone seem much more discourteous than it actually was, so I appreciate seeing the quote directly as it was. However,...

Re: Texas FIRST teams doubling in 2 years

I couldn't agree with this more. I think it's great that Texas has taken such an interest in the program. However, quality is better than quantity, especially when it comes to FRC teams.

If I had...

Thanks for sharing! This definitely struck a chord in me and reminded me of my times as a FIRST student. Mentors are the best, and even when one thanks them, it never seems to be quite enough, does...

Re: Exploring The 'We're All Winners' Concept

I definitely see your point that using "We're all winners" as a way to uplift student's spirits at the end of a competition can cause some problems, especially if it's used as an excuse.

Re: From Bill's Blog: Merits of replacing bronze participation medals

A problem I see with this is that not every student who is involved with FIRST works on the robot/works with tools. Some students on teams may never pick up a tool during their career. Remember,...

Re: 2009 IRI Talent Show

The talent show is always a good time. I would definitely suggest two things:

1. Everyone stay to watch! It's fun, funny, and lets you hang out with other teams as well.

2. Everyone should, at some...
