Monitoring students sitting at their desks is one thing, but when you use literal webcams, the opportunity for sneaky practices, like recording, skyrockets. The thought of a teacher recording you sitting at your laptop is disturbing, but is it illegal? Let’s take a look and find out. What Is Remote Learning? An online classroom often looks like a giant video chat room. Sometimes, students merely remain online for lectures and are free to read or watch any learning materials offscreen....

Quality material and unique design alone don’t make a great product. The Kokoon Sleep Headphones look comfortable, but side sleepers will struggle to find rest. Nightly pressure on the ear cups may also throw off the sensors and compromise the sleep tracking. What we liked best was the Kokoon app’s audio library, which also works without the headphones. But can you count on Kokoon or will you be counting sheep?...

But before you apply, it’s important that you understand the evaluation process for Social Security Disability. Doing so can help you start the application phase and ultimately reach a successful outcome....

Jamie Benn redirected a Jay Bouwmeester shot-pass past Jonathan Quick 1:41 into the second period to give Canada a 1-0 lead. That was the final score. Canada will play Sweden for the gold medal in men's hockey at the 2014 Winter Olympics on Sunday morning (7 ET, NBC). The U.S will play Finland for bronze on Saturday (10 ET, NBC Sports). The United States generated shots on Carey Price (30), but relatively few scoring chances....

Members of Parliament unanimously passed a motion from the New Democratic Party (NDP) in the House of Commons on Friday, less than a week after a driver mounted a sidewalk and plowed into a family on a walk in London, Ontario. London-Fanshawe MP Lindsay Mathyseen, who brought forward the non-binding motion, argued that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the liberal government needed to do more to address prejudice against Muslims in the country....

Some people claimed to have already taken international flights to Europe ahead of the Norwegian Cruise Line trip. The Norwegian Pearl was set to take guests on the 13-day cruise from Rome’s Civitavecchia port. According to a statement from Norwegian, the ship experienced a mechanical problem and has slowed its speed in response. The company said the vessel—currently traveling from northern Europe to the Mediterranean—is slated to end an already-disrupted journey in Rome before undergoing “necessary repairs....

Cancer women have a tendency to withdraw into their own shells and protect themselves. Because she feels safe with a Libra man, she doesn’t feel the need to do that. Libra’s masculinity is balanced by his feminine ruling planet, Venus. It makes him softer and more protective—not brash and aggressive like other masculine signs. A Cancer woman affirms and exalts his subtle masculinity, making him feel like a knight in shining armor....

That’s left the Raptors with a wide agenda here in the offseason. They’re still coach-hunting, but the consensus around the league has been that making a shuffle in the coaching staff alone is not going to solve all the Raptors’ woes. If the team comes back with the same personnel, they’re not likely to get much better next year. But the way the Raptors’ payroll is constructed, the options available for a move this offseason will be limited....

Voltorb and Electrode have been known to charge these power plants in multiple Pokemon games and are often mistaken for Pokeballs by trainers. This is all well and good for Pokemon GO trainers, but another question persists: Can Voltorb’s shiny form be caught?...

“Vaccine passports,” a means of proving a person’s vaccination status, have been floated as a way of increasing capacity at certain events as America crawls toward normalcy. President Joe Biden’s administration doesn’t have any current plans to implement them at a nationwide level, but even the prospect of the measure prompted criticism for it being an invasion of people’s privacy and an infringement on a person’s ability to choose whether to get vaccinated....

One does not have to wonder why 2,700 tons of ammonium nitrate were stored in a warehouse at the port. One can pretend that this was to be used for fertilizer, but that would be ludicrous. The purpose was to develop explosives. Now, the Lebanese government must investigate numerous questions. The first is why this dangerous material was stored in such a prominent location.

It is typical of open-world games to offer a manual save option at all times or the option to save when reaching a checkpoint. Fortunately, Elden Ring has both of those options in a sense, but as is usually the case, the process is a little more tedious.
