So today was just another day with a few changes in the regular routine. So anyways, I came to school, had Geometry first period, pretty damn easy I must say when you are doing radical problems...
Second period, speech, damn teacher gave us a third project to do altogether within one week .
Third period, Literature, my that research paper makes me wanna committ suicide(in a peaceful manner of course) .
Fourth period, had lunch, school food is horrible I must say. I usually sit around my
After fruitless months of loitering around, I finally got my damn license. But only thing is I really hate is the picture taking, it makes me look so retarded, I suppose no one can escape it. Otherwise, I love driving along the lakefront at night, amazing scenery, and not to mention fracking 'peace.' I suppose they call it naturalism, BS lit.
Otherwise, I'm really hating school right now. Just too much damn work, I feel depress and tired. Fortunately, my personality doesn't allow me to stay
Similar to distributed super computers such as the SETI @ Home project, the BBC along with a bunch of Universities and the MET office call on users to help predict weather patterns. I dowloaded it and it looks pretty interesting...

One of the sites that I frequent daily. Today boasting a very silly and anti-love valentines day joke front page. If that puts you off, look up some articles, Uncyclopedia won't let you down (the front page will say Emotopedia for today though)

Cybele was also known as Magna Mater and was a fertility goddess from Phrygia. She was associated with the Earth and was worshipped on mountaintops. Her worship was "wild, emotional, bloody, orgiastic, and cathartic" and was led by eunuch priests (called Corybantes) who ritually castrated themselves and assumed women's identities.
She was also known as a goddess of caverns and fortresses, and of wild beasts.
In Greek Mythology Cybele was known as Rhea. She was renowned as the mother of
I picked up a book at the library today, it's called A Pillar of Iron by Taylor Caldwell. It's a historical fiction novel about the life of Cicero (from his parent's life the day of his birth onward). An ambitious read (sixty-seven chapters!!! of really tiny print!!! 649 pages!!!) and at first I wasn't sure I could finish it, but I'm already just into chapter III and it's great...actually easy language to understand and I was laughing about something or other the whole time I was reading it (Cal

How transparent is this guy? I'm amazed that the people who witnessed this briefing did not laugh in his face at the contradictory stupidity that he spewed forth. While I agree that the U.S. government is over-stepping its power wrongly in some cases for the sake of its citizen's protection, you cannot correlate the freedom of private enterprises to censor their own productive work to the act of forcing them against their will to censor certain topics.

So, on Friday I leave for Jamaica... :pimp:
Going to Negril for a week for some fun in the sun and relaxation. I will eat conch fritters and drink Red Stripe for all of you.
Oooooh I can't wait to catch up on some reading in a tropical location!
Well, I've got really nothing to complain about, though I'm sure something will emerge as I write this, and consequently I'll have to change the title, but oh well.
Of my most pressing matters to contend with, is a band concert on march the 8th, which happens to be my sisters birthday. However, thats the least of my worries about the concert, its in a month and we got our music a week or so ago, which (any one who's been in a concert band would tell you) is not alot of time to prepare it, es
I finished the article and it's waiting to be published, go me!
[edit]I just realized it IS published! thanks guys! It can be found on the UNRV homepage!
I got another 83% in AP Chem
I went to the Sportsman's Show in Harrisburg on Friday and let me tell you, it's worth a trip, but you really cannot see it in one day. It TOTALLY redefines the word "huge". (I got a pretty little piece of agate from the Yellowstone River there. It kind of looks like a lopsided arrowhead and it's all pol

I think the link is working now -though the site is still under massive reconstruction and has been stripped back.
Please be patient if you are interested in the "small objects" add-ons to the UNRV gallery reports, im working on it! Quite a few extra Vindolanda items are posted and some Eboracum ones also on the msn blog. As you will see the materia medica are replicated but will extend beyond the Roman domain. My passion for all things Japanese is also notable.
Beer and assorted pleasurable c
Sounds pretty sick, right? Actually, BigDump is a staggered MySQL dump importing script. Anyone who has loaded a large database backup, transported a large database to a new host, or made a mirror test database knows how challenging it can sometimes be if you administrate remotely without using shell access.
Fortunately, this script makes it a complete snap. Instead of breaking the SQL file into chunks that wouldn't cause a PHP timeout, then loading each one manually, I let this thing run wh
well tafe is working out really well... i have made heaps of friends to my suprisement. i learnt greatly to also never judge someone by the way the look. like this "gangsta" guy i meet ended up being really cool and nice, and like this really "nerdy" guy ended up being the funniest person i had ever meet in my life.
so things are looking alot better.
i also found out though recently that a really close friend of mine went through a depressed stage about two years ago like myself. if y
Goths, we all know the general style, dyed hair, dressed in all black all the time, strange religions that seem to encourage depression (such as wiccan, etc) and general glumness.
Oh all things, of all peoples, of all sub-cultures, I hate this group the most. The reason, simple, it takes people with good prospects for life and who are inteligent, and turns them into depressed, poor-preforming, unsocial members (or outcast depending on your view) of society. The problem, is that these people
"We have chosen not to show these comics tonight on the ethical grounds that we are scared to."
-Steven Colbert
Yes, these comics seem to have sprung up from such a tiny, and seemingly unimportant newspaper in Denmark. Images such as depicting the prophet Muhammad with a bomb in his turbin have struck off WORLD WIDE muslim anger and now literaly thousands, if not millions, with hateful feelings towards the cheerful northern European country of Denmark. Though the Dutch have tolerance for al
the time approaches for my "cross cultural" review of this work .I think the review will be better handled if its specialised parts are dismembered between UNRV at blog level-for the sections on "analysis of ancient cultures from a modern perspective" and "fermented medicines/cultural ceremonial of celtic /european societies" in relation to Roman medicines, and foodstuffs. The review of the "hardcore" historical analysis for non-european societies and detailed recipe critique ,including the his
Well, I thought long and hard, and I've gone through my head many times over what to do, I've fought with myself, with my better instincts, and all my codes of life. I've decided to break my strict regimen for the sake of my mental health and for self indulgence, for I fear I can't hurt myself too much.
I've decided that I should persuse my feelings, what ever they be, for the girl at school, and try to at least get her so say a word that I can hear (she is excessively quite) if all goes we
