"Honestly. She's not that good."

I know, I just found her photo:

I can see why she sticks to pen and paper instead of video blogs. Even for /. or MIT that has to be bad.

Go Stanford! Beat Cal!

Actually, there's a simpler device that satisfies local peer-to-peer calls (at least my experience with WiFi range). It's been adapted to long range communications, but I prefer this neat hack is a bit more portable.

I'm also a software developer born-and-raised and currently living in Louisville, KY. Businesses and people across the USA need to stop thinking of Louisville as a "hick town"--I wildly assure you that IT IS NOT. As a former resident of upstate NY, Charlotte, NC and the SF bay area, I attest that Louisville is a modern city with very upstanding people and lots of things to do for a city its size (and it isn't so small -- 1 million in the metro area!).

Louisville has vibrant arts, sports, architecture, politics, business, attractions and nightspots and a very fun two-week festival in April/May surrounding the Kentucky Derby (including "Thunder Over Louisville", the nation's largest air power and fireworks show). And if that isn't enough, the University of Louisville includes a very good school of engineering.

Of course, the most important aspect of Louisville is her people, among the friendliest you'll ever run into.

If only they had used this on their football coach before Notre Dame hired him!

UC Berkeley (to use an example from the article) doesn't exactly have a powerful football presence.

Two words: UCLA Bruins.

It's all Michael Sims fault! Don't blame it on Taco and Hemos.

Here at the University of Louisville we have the (advertising) slogan "Dare to be Great". This has sparked parodies such as "Dare to be Stupid".

Some how those parodies don't have the irony of "America's Next Great University". It brings a message of "Eeehh, we are not so great yet. But by the time you graduate, we will really kick ass!"

Besides, we have Pitino now. So I don't think that UK deserves basketball.edu. Although we might get pitino.edu and rename the school to University of Pitino.

Ok People, I realize that MSU isn't the largest school in michigan... Oh wait, it is.
Then I guess it doesn't have any sports teams to make you remember it... Oh wait. it does& lt;/a>
Look... MSU instituted this policy for all incomming freshman at the start of this school year..... well shoot me with a stick
The only article I found on the net was this one.

Anyhow.. just trying to give my alma mater it's Due Props.

disks, tape, cds... they all have a relatively short lifespan. picture storing data in mice, just feed them and keep them warm. ev en if th e parents die the children will have the artificial chromosomes... (that is unless they recombine, in which case all of your documents or whatever are worthless....)

I've got one of those Intellimouse Explorers (the huge silver ones with the superfluous tail light and like three extra buttons; well, what the hell, here's a http://www.microsoft.com/Mouse/explorer.htm link) and sites that won't let you back out are an incredible annoyance. See, two of the buttons on there serve as Forward/Back (respectively) while browsing the web, and after about 20 minutes of using them, I was hooked. You wouldn't believe how simple (and remarkably intuitive) to navigate with your thumb. Now if I could just find a good use for those buttons in Half-Life... I mean, sure, it's easy enough to hold down the back button and select the page before the offending site, but that would require moving my cursor over six or so linear inches of desktop space. Isn't that just a little bit unreasonable? No? Ah well.
