I had a Win XP crash due to a bad disk. Since I would have to re-install XP on the new disk, I figured I might as well install a newer OS... WIndows 7 (and dual boot Opensuse Linux, but that's not relevant here). Then I wanted to keep all my mailboxes in Thuderbird as they were. I found the solution here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=1774485
My favorite Anime of all time is probably Full Metal Alchemist. Anime enthusiasts know there are two versions: FMA and FMA-Brotherhood. Both are great, but Brotherhood had a complete story, following the original story line of the original author. More on FMA later. Today, I wanted to mention Chrono Crusade, the latest Anime I found in my search to find an anime that I enjoy as much as I enjoyed FMA. You can find episode 1 (of 24) with English subtitles here: Chrono Crusade on YouTube. Wikipedia has a great summary of everything you might want to know here: Chrono Crusade on Wikipedia. My review to come later.
I searched ("googled") the pharse, "What should I do if I can't afford college, even with loans?" Here's a great thread that does not give an answer but certainly raises some points to consider, especially one's attitude. I found it at CollegeConfidential.com at the following URL:

I am about to swap out my motherboard and processor (Intel D955Xcs and Pentium duo). I want to reuse those in a new computer case. OS is Win 7 and Opensuse 12.1 dual boot. In order to be safe, I am creating a bootable USB with Opensuse.
First step is to go see this "silent" video: http://youtu.be/sRzVxw2tI5o (2:20)
The spark for this topic is about 10 days old. I do not recall exactly how we got on this topic, but two students in my class took opposing views. One thought it was crazy (not sane) to seriously consider co-ed dormitories. The other took the what's wrong with that position. I got curious as to what research might be available. I only found an ariticle from a website called livescience.com.
I went to a Joomla powered website I had created (that was previously working just fine) and was redirected to an error screen that had the line:
Class 'JLog' not found in error.php on line 339 jimport
There was a long site-specific directory path before "error.php". I searched several Joomla sites looing for a solution. Most involved saving the MySQL database and re-installing. However, I found one forum that suggested the Class JLog was part of a definitions file in the libraries/joomla/log directory of the installation. The actual file was named "log.php". The post also referenced ftp errors common during an installation process.
My golden rule when watching anime is to never watch a series that is unfinished. By that I mean, only watch series that have ended. This allows me to binge-watch or at least to always have the next episode available. I suppose this satisfies a sense of control. However, I think more important for me is that this way I do not have to wait a week for the next episode. Like all of us who enjoy good movies or stories: I want to find out what happens next.
I had a very interesting conversation with one of my PreCalculus students. He had been working on a paper for another course that was investigating the achievement gap in education in America. He asked me if I had any opinions or thoughts about it. Of course, I did. During the ensuing conversaiton, we spoke about the effect of the increasing number of children raised in single-parent homes. I got curious and later looked up some statistics.
A few years ago, I scolded an advisee of mine for pulling out of a leadership position (house president). Her reason was that she thought she had no chance of winning. Only one other person ran---and got the position by default. My advisee happened to be Black young woman. I told her that because of the history of our country and some facets of its current state, persons from certain demographic groups do not have the luxury to give up leadership positions. A few days ago, I saw a similar situation develop, but this time in an Honors Physics class. Upon researching some statistics, I found an article on "Who Gets 5's on AP Physics Exam" in the blog http://isteve.blogspot.com by Steve Sailer. (Disclaimer: I take no position on any view expressed by Sailer or his blog.)
According to the Department of State (DOS) website (https://careers.state.gov/office), the mission of a U.S. diplomat in the Foreign Service is to promote peace, support prosperity, and protect American citizens while advancing the interests of the U.S. abroad.
To become a Foreign Service Officer (FSO) you must undergo three grueling tests or assessments. Search the internet and you will be find the stories of many who have tried and a few who have tried and succeeded.
General information follows, but please refer to the official DOS website for the latest and official informaiton. The info below is not guaranteed to be correct and up to date, so use it only as a starting point and for discussion purposes.
Every now and then, I do try to practice playing my guitar. I am just good enough to be bad. I have learned that when I do practice, using a song or music that I actually enjoy works best. No matter how badly I play it, in my mind, it still sounds like the song I enjoy. Thus, I have fun practicing.
Recently, I was in the mood for classic 1960's Brittish Invasion Rock-n-Roll. I found "No Milk Today" by Herman's Hermits on YouTube:
I used the tab music at tabs.ultimate-guitar.com. About two weeks later, I ran into this version of No Milk Today by Joshua James & The Forest Rangers, which played in The Season 3 Opener of Sons of Anarchy:
Enjoy.
Again, nothing but a few video links. This is for practice, not the initial teaching of the topic.
Another anime as I search for something as good as Full Metal Alcheist. Chaos; Head has plenty of promise: a blossiming love story, mystery, and a unique weapon (the DiSword). However, it's only 12 episodes long. If you would like to watch this series, go to: Chaos; Head on YouTube.
This is the "class 2" on Magnetic Fields and Forces
Despite the lengthy and rarely intelligent debates about marriage, marriage equality, gay marriage, or whatever label the media decides to use, I have not found any articles discussing the removal of govenrment or civil law from marriage altogether. However, I finally found one. It actually discusses the issue intelligently. The article does go in-depth into how this might come about, but it poses good points. The article is posted on a blog called Big Think. I am agnostic toward the blog in general and only wish to bring attention to the article I found there, by Peter Lawler, called "Should Government Get Out of the Marriage Business?"
A live reaction---at least the version of which I am writing---is a video of yourself "reacting" live and in real-time as you watch an anime. Others can then play back your live reaction as they watch the anime, and it's is like having you in the room with them.
No explanation. Just two video links that will teach you L'Hopital's Rule in Calculus AB/BC fashion and even give you some practice applying it.
