    Here is the story from yesterday about the convy: http://www.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/meast/05/30/gaza.protest/index.html So in other words this was more of a publicity to try to provoke Isreal (success).

    In my state, the speed limit is also 65, but it would be reckless driving to go below 75 due to everyone else going 80+. I think are speeding tickets are about a third of yours though.

    At my school, there is a two quarter GR series offered by the math department. I just happened to stubble upon it the other day. It seems to only be offered every few years.

    Failing Calc Midterm: Overcoming Setback & Moving Forward

    Is 2012 Movie Just Another Epic Destruction Flick?

    I saw it last night, and over all I was a little dissapointed. Part of it could have been that I saw it at midnight and didn't realize that it was a 3 hour movie.

    Topics in your first physics year.

    I did not take physics in high school. In high school, I thought I wanted to be a doctor, so I took every bio course my school offered and opted out of physics. Not exactly sure if I regret it. The first quarter of physics in college was brutal, but I rebounded fairly well after that.
