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)
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.
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.
This is an very informative set of videos. No one video will answer all our questions, but this a good set of building blocks to help us understand the efficient frontier.
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.
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 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.

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.
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.
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.
Besides moral and/or religious grounds (not that one needs more rationale than morality/religion), can one tell a high school that sexual activity during high school has consequnces? First, we need data to see the current landscape. I found the following data from the CDC {Youth risk behavior surveillance—United States, 2011. MMWR 2012;61(SS-4).} You can find it on the CDC website, but restated here for convenience:
Many young people engage in sexual risk behaviors that can result in unintended health outcomes. For example, among U.S. high school students surveyed in 20111
Sexual risk behaviors place adolescents at risk for HIV infection, other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), and unintended pregnancy:

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.)
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.
Again, nothing but a few video links. This is for practice, not the initial teaching of the topic.
PBS's Need To Know re-braodcast on Sunday April 21(perhaps original air date was a few days earlier) presented a program on Financial Literacy. It highlighted a program in Missiissippi directed at educating kids (as young as 1st grade) and their parents about developing savings habits and the importance of having a bank account. I got curious about the statistics. The FDIC published results of a survey in 2011. The information that follows comes from that survery, which you can find here: 2012 Underbanked Survery (or go to
http://www.fdic.gov/householdsurvey/2012_unbankedreport.pdf ).
