Get to know your proffs while youre there. See them out of class time to ask them thoughtful questions about the material they are teaching and take as many laboratory based courses as you can. I am an undergrad in my fourth year on to my third research project and through those projects I've...

I know someone who just got kicked out of university due to a marajuana problem. He spent all his money on pot, never went to class and accidentally overdosed on crystal meth that he didnt know was in his weed. He now has a huge debt, and a severe addiction which he has willingly gone to rehab...

would it be all that bad if it changed the movie making industry? Wasnt there just a thread on here about Paris Hiltons extremely overly expensive dog house? I just gave half my groceries to a bum on the street hiding from the thunderstorm outside, and people demand millions of dollars for...

I am actually studying this right now for an exam on Wednesday. I think that the whole blanket praise thing started after Carl Rogers postulated his theories on conditional positive regard. The idea is that parents unintentionally try to teach their children by withholding their love and respect...

How do I get linux off my laptop and reclaim that partition without having to do a fresh Windows install and without damaging the boot manager (GRUB)?

The stereotype that women are less skilled or less passionate about fields like computing or engineering probably has a lot to do with why women avoid those fields. I don't know what its like in computers because although I have an interest I have very little skill, however I know in the horse...

Baldness is autosomal recessive. Its one of those cool sex linked genes. For some reason women need both recessives to go bald, but men only need one. As a result men are 3x more likely to experience pattern baldness. My professor used this as her example for explaining sex linked genes. I know...

ok, thank you for the advice!

Awesome!

I almost forgot about the very lucky penguin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmQ2jMZzcWk&feature=related

Perhaps someone has already posted this, but everyone must see the crazy penguin and the lazy polar bear:

Turn up the volume for this baby tiger. Oh man it gave me the wiggles! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idRc_KkInds&feature=channel

Its probably wise to find out what's included in the dorm you will be staying at. I know the best thing my BF ever brought me was an alarm clock that made white noise so I could sleep through the 3 or 4 fire alarms we had every night. My dorm room came with mirrors, a phone, phone books and...

Im assuming you are suggesting that this patch would be for people who wanted to quit? Or are you suggesting it as an alternative drug therapy for cancer patients? Either way the social and legal implications probably have a lot to do with why a pharmaceutical company would stay away from the...
