Eastbound and down

Samuel,

This is the song I wanted to put in the HKAYP presentation.

Never mind the video. (Even though it is quite cool. Look at the nice turret gun. ) Just care about the song:

"We're gonna do what they say can't be done.
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there. "
THIS FITS OUR SITUATION!


Enjoy!

Also, you may have been aware of the article writen by this satirist in Central Connecticut university.

"Rape only hurts if you fight it"

While I don't agree with much of the content, I would say that the title is quite true. Our society has always taught people that rape is not good to anyone. Therefore, it's quite hard to test this out. I dislike the content because it seems to justify rape as right in all cases.
I think the title can be changed to "Rape only hurts if you were educated to think this and you fight it".
In a way, it is the society as a whole that makes rape hurt so badly. Feminism appears to have backfired, which is why so many radical feminists brainwashed by feminism have complained.

However, you might argue that the consequences of rape will hurt too. Well, again this is the society's fault.

Overall, I think he made a very bold move, even though I think it as wrong. It gives feminists more ideas to reinforce their "Violence against women" front.

Why are girls taking over the academic world?

As far as I can think back, education has become more standardized ever since the WWII.
By this, I mean the standardization of school cirriculum. Teaching of things have been very organized and modular. Females learn better as a result because they use the actual neurons (white matter) more than the connections (grey matter). This means that much less linking between subjects need to be made.

The amount of women being teachers outnumber the amount of male teachers. Girls generally need female mentors, whereas boys require male mentors. This is not because they need to pick up stereotypical gender roles, but because they need a sense of gender identity and someone to learn social skills from.

The pen

The Productivity Enchancing Pen... what's up with that?
You ought to spend some time to deal with the designing. We still haven't come up with any design that is usable.
There's no time to waste. If we don't get this done, we won't have time to start the making. For something like this, it's impossible to make without first thinking it through - there's no set "design scheme" here, unlike D&T.

Besides, what's Martin doing?

Meet Windows XP... with Multiple desktops

Windows can do Virtual desktops, but not very well. For example, all windows exist on all 4 virtual desktops. It's simply that the opened ones are grouped together.

It works fairly well, but I'm trying to change the wallpaper.
