QUOTE(Soxy @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 09:22 AM) How much did you love theories of learning? That stuff is my favorite. Excellent class. The professor is outstanding, this is the second class I've taken with him. His Research methods class was equally exciting. The first four weeks was basically a review for me, Pavlov, etc. We're finishing with Hebb, Gestalt, and Tolman. When I stopped and realized the range of subjects, in one semester, it was impressive. I'm looking forward to a couple grad classes he teaches.

Abnormal Psychology - Done Tests and Measurements in Psychology - Done History - on-line next week American Lit - 6 pages take home, another 3 or 4 pages in class on Wednesday Theories of Learning - Monday Then five weeks of r&r

QUOTE(southsideirish @ Dec 6, 2007 -> 08:40 AM) I am not willing to give him 18 million per either. I'd rather finish fourth in the division then pay that much for a player.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Dec 5, 2007 -> 04:13 PM) Taking finals is nowhere near as s***ty as grading them. Bleh. grading? A scantron and multiple choice.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...7112401359.html Remember folks, Hidalgo County, Texas is one of the five poorest counties in the country. Obama raised under $3,000 Hillary over $600,000. Meet the man who made it possible and a really nice guy.

Damn, wrong Guillen or NOW WE"RE THE WORSE TEAM IN THE DIVISION!!!!!!!!!!!!! JUMP OFF A BRIDGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE WILL NEVER WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(bmags @ Dec 5, 2007 -> 03:59 PM) heads...suspend me until friday...i should be studying. i'm serious. Done.

Andrew Hund 1993 Ode to Finals Week! Twas the night before finals, and all through the college, The students were praying for last minute knowledge. Most were quite sleepy, but none touched their beds, While visions of essays danced in their heads. Out in the taverns, a few were still drinking, And hoping that liquor would loosen up their thinking. In my own apartment, I had been pacing, And dreading exams I soon would be facing. My roommate was speechless, his nose in his books, And my comments to him drew unfriendly looks. I drained all the coffee, and brewed a new pot, No longer caring that my nerves were shot. I stared at my notes, but my thoughts were muddy, My eyes went a blur, I just couldn't study. "Some pizza might help," I said with a shiver, But each place I called refused to deliver. I'd nearly concluded that life was too cruel, With futures depending on grades had in school. When all of a sudden, our door opened wide, And Patron Saint Put-It-Off ambled inside. His spirit was careless, his manner was mellow, When all of a sudden, he started to bellow: "On Cliff Notes! On Crib Notes! On last year's exams! On Wingit and Slingit, and last minute crams!" His message delivered, he vanished from sight, But we heard him laughing outside in the night. "Your teachers have pegged you, so just do your best. Happy Finals to all, and to all, a Good Test!"

QUOTE(daa84 @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 09:55 PM) at this point i just dont think crede has much value Every time I read comments like this about Crede, I think Maggs, who signed a top 10 contract after a surgery that was considered experimental in the US. Crede does have value and if Scott Boras was our GM, we could get a ton for him.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 06:36 PM) Well hopefully at least now, this shows KW the importance of having a damn good farm system. It's been neglected for years, and no longer can that continue if this team wants to get back on top of the division. What good is a farm system when we cannot sign them to a second contract? We get a guy MLB ready, he plays a couple seasons, hits his stride and then he's too expensive for us to sign.

How many years were we the "best team on paper" and lost? You still have to play the games. I'd rather play with Detriot's players

I guess someone might think that, but I doubt many. Most articles do not offer any sort of supporting statement like that, this one did.

These were the guys we were calling idiots for signing Maggs.

Without knowing your intended major, if you like big crowds or smaller groups, lifestyle, etc. any advice you get is probably not worth the time to read it. If you have specific questions or concerns, you could get some great information here. Your list includes some of the top Universities in the Midwest and any would be a great choice, and any could be a terrible choice, it depends on you. If that makes sense. If you haven't really decided on a major, and most people do not stick to the one you may be thinking right now, take out a college catalog and highlight every course you think you would like to take. The department with the most highlights will be your first major.

It would be impossible, absent of a video tape, to prove the allegations. So they would seek to disprove them. Find proof that the Senator or the person making the claim could not be there. Perhaps find a time when one of these men made a similar allegation that proved to be false, etc. So basically they reported, accurately, that these guys are making this claim, and we can not prove or disprove their statements. I don't see what more they could do? Would you have not run the story? How would you have worded it better?

That special place in hell is getting fuller and fuller.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 3, 2007 -> 10:35 PM) 29 and a 4.1. Our scale grants a whole extra point for honors classes, but technically it's still out of 4.0. If your class rank is top 10%, which I imagine with that GPA it would have to be, I would be planning the party. Congrats

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 08:21 AM) Tex, frame it how you want, but by writing 'who's allegations can't be disproved', you (well, the reporter, not YOU) are representing that as the truth. Bad writing? Probably, which is what I am trying to point out here. Just like people who hang nooses on their own office doors to get attention, people will make crap up to ride the publicity train. And reporters generally try very hard to discredit those people. I wonder if they decided to not print those allegations, and Craig happened to be a Dem, what you would be saying? Perhaps the liberal media protecting a Dem? And these allegations about Craig have been out there for years and years. Perhaps he's been smeared for all these years, but he was arrested,m and it is a legit news story.

QUOTE(SnB @ Dec 3, 2007 -> 09:33 AM) oh god yeah, scotch is known as the "old man booze" in this apartment, but we love it. And at least on college campuses, I agree with you, vodka is a chick drink I think there is a lot more peer pressure on what to drink when you are in college. As you get older you drink what you like, not to proove your manhood.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Dec 4, 2007 -> 08:45 AM) /waits for Rex to point out again that Hillary has authorized the request... yet still we have seen nothing... That is a legit concern. Every President has been very guarded about what is released from the office. That protects future Presidents. I rather appreciate the consistency that every President has shown, both Dem and Rep. At some point they all seem to understand and value the traditions and needs of future office holders.

I guess Hillary didn't vote for her husband in 1992

QUOTE(Alpha Dog @ Dec 3, 2007 -> 05:52 PM) Sure, there allagations can't be 'disproved', but can they be proved, or it is just he said/he said? We all know he is scum, but it seems like shoddy reporting reporting on one persons comment as fact. Just curious if any off them can prove it, other than by saying Craig can't disprove it. Must not have been anything juicy to come out of the debate other than CNN losing their credibility, so they have to go attack someone, anyone, whoever is easiest. So reporting what people are saying is wrong? So then why cover any speeches until everything that is said can be verified? It's like covering an arrest.
