“
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Tenure.
It is called a tenure and a tenure is given to professors in universities when they become full time permanent part of the faculty.
So, in the beginning, if you only have a Master's degree and you apply to work at a university, you are called an instructor.
If you have a Ph.D. and you get hired as only a part timer, you are called a lecturer.
If you have a Ph.D. and you become full-time then we say that you are a full-tenured track faculty and now you are a professor.
Tenure is only for four year universities. Junior colleges, two year colleges, only have instructors. They can never have professors. Mainly because they only require a Master's degree. They don't require Ph.D's. But if you have a Ph.D. you are still an instructor so you might be called Dr.something instead of Instructor something.
Tenure is a guarantee that you will continue working at the school until you either want to leave or you do something incredibly stupid. I think that the AAUP considers you to have tenure when you have taught (at the same or different schools) for 7 years. Not every school agrees, though. About the only thing a tenured professor can be fired for is "moral turpitude". This is facetiously defined as comitting rape under a street light, with three witnesses.

mystical revelations a'la danbrowning

See on tükk Raffaeli maalist Parnassus 1511. aastast Apostlite Palees Vatikanis. Vaadake seda tüüpi/tśikki Sappho kõrval - ta hoiab peos telekapulti!
Aunasted
Tahtsin jagada oma ebasümpaatsust kahe naise vastu, kes on meie rahvustelevisioonis karjääri tegemas.
*Vanem Aunaste
1.Tema nägu on enamuste intervjuude ajal ebasiiras.
2.Ta arvab endast madalamal olevatest inimestest halvasti (palju näiteid, kuidas ta kedagi, oma saates, ilma põhjuseta mõnitab)
*Noorem Aunaste
1.Ei oska ajalehte ette lugeda?!
2.Jätab üleüldiselt tõsiselt lolli mulje.
*Mõlemad
!TÕELISELT HÄIRIVA HÄÄLEGA!
Keegi midagi lisada oskab siis palun väga!

Guugli rahamasin.
Ehk siis, saatsin adsensile avalduse, et siin bloogis reklaami hakata tegema. Aga teie eelmist lauset ei tohi lugeda, kuna ma ei tohi reklaamida reklaami, sest muidu te võite reklaamidele klikkida, kuna mina tahan raha saada! Ehk siis, ärge jumala eest reklaamidele klikkige, muidu me saame 0.5 dollarit iga kliki pealt rikkamaks?!

Kuna nad seda siiamaani teinud pole, siis teame me, et Vennaskond võtab ette reisi Kuule järgmisel aastal, sest siis
on reede ja juulikuu
kuueteistkümnes päev

"How I Hate the Night", also known as "Marvin's lullaby"
Now the world has gone to bed
Darkness won't engulf my head
I can see by infra-red
How I hate the night
Now I lay me down to sleep
Try to count electric sheep
Sweet dream wishes you can keep
How I hate the night

Saner than an emu on acid
Mida mõtleb roojava elevandi all seisev hiir? Kas ta arvab, et taevas lõpuks laguneb ja kukub?
