A 13 moon calendar makes sence. The moon rotates the earth 13 times a year in a cycle of 28 days, which corresponds to the femal menstrual cycle. It's not a coincedence that every language bears a correlation between moon month measure and menses.
My friend is a reflexologist, and she really knows how to make a foot feel good!
go and see a reflexologist today! you wont regret it, especially if you're feeling low.
In Toronto we have something called Alternative Schools. I go to an alternative school called Contact High where I am treated like an adult with (almost) all the freedoms and responsibilities entailed therein.
During the Harris-Eves "Common Sense Revolution" the Youth-Workers at my school were cut. These were specially trained staff who helped students to find homes, employment, proper food, or just someone to talk to. They helped keep kids in class, on time, and they prevented alot of violence in school. In fact, the day after they were fired, a fight broke out amongst students in the school building.
Indeed, a close friend of mine, Justin, was recently murdered. a few months prior to his shooting, he dropped out of school because without the streetworkers, he had much less motivation to attend class. to those that knew him and the school, it is easy to see the chain of events from the cutting of the streetworkers to Justin's murder.
It is clear to my mind that using RFID tags to track students (or any human) involuntarily, or without just cause is wrong-hearted and wrong-minded.
In addition, what is wrong with using pencil and paper? Why must all the old problems be addressed by new and technologically complex solutions? There is a root cause to truancy and student apathy, why not address it?
What will happen when the internet's vast archive of midget porn and snuff films gets stored on DNA strands? Reminds me of that movie with Will Wheaton - Mr. Stitch.
Some food for thought:
The harmonic module of the mayan 'calendar' (the Tzolkin) is 260 days long. 260 * 2 = 520 (5200 years?)
Christopher columbus landed in 1492
1492 was the start of a mayan time cycle lasting 520 years
1492 + 520 = 2012
December 21, 2012 is the last date in the mayan 'calendar'.

Why not use the more sensible and natural 13 moon calendar of the mayans?

I'm no expert, but perhaps piping some white noise into the audio-in would do it?
You should try Darimasen. It's a new take on file browsing.
I also use clusty. I find It slower loading that google, but I feel better using a competitor to google.

Good choice of words.

There is an Aqua theme for GTK; Just look at Gimp.app. Free software is as pretty or ugly as you decide to make it.
