America is founded on the ideal of liberty. The root of liberty is liber, the Latin for book.So why are library budgets some of the first things to be cut when counties have to downsize their budgets? Why do libraries get sidelined when people talk of important community assests?The foundation of liberty is access to information. Libraries provide free information.Support libraries, wherever they

I just finished reading This Book Is Overdue! How Librarians and Cybrarians Can Save Us All by Marilyn Johnson.It talked of how librarians keep people informed and able to navigate on the search for information. It was all very interesting, but while reading it I discovered something about myself I should have already known.I cannot stand information loss.Stories of book burning make my insides

NBC says France claims burquas are a sign of Islamic radicalism; CNN says that France claims "the issue is one of a woman's freedom and dignity" and has nothing to do with religion. Either way, I say France is wrong. The idea should be that no woman is forced to wear a burqua or an abaya or any other form of covering unless they want to. France's idea is that there are no burquas, period. That's

Feminism does not need to redefine “feminine”. Nor “women”. “Masculinity” does not have to incorporate demureness; nor “man” sensitivity. “Feminine” can keep the non-violent connotation it has.Feminism needs to redefine how the terms “man”, “woman”, “masculinity”, and “femininity” are used.Male and female* are biological factors.

The day after we heard about George Washington and his "Rules of Civility", we went to Mt. Vernon. It's a rather big place. You can go in an see the house, though you can't take pictures; and you can see where the Washington's are buried. Every so often there'll be people in period clothing walking around and they hold talks in the greenhouse about George Washington and his life. All the

The second day of my conference (yes, I know I said chronologically, read the post-title) we had a Keynote speaker by the name of Andrew D. Potter about George Washington and his leadership skills. We learned some fun facts:George Washington had no formal education.Had a big temper.Died extremely wealthy even by today's standards.I also learned the four attributes of a great leader:

Back now from my LeadAmerica conference. Six days at the Sheration National Hotel in Washington, DC; and there's lots to talk about. I re-read a book I have during the conference, Are Men Necessary? by Maureen Dowd; and have decided to do an in-depth, chapter-by-chapter reveiw. That along with the LeadAmerica stuff (in chronological order) will probably fill up the next 20 or 30 posts. There may

I started reading "The Minds of Boys: Saving Our Sons from Falling Behind in School and Life" yesterday (I'll probably post a little 'thoughts I had' thing when I'm done with it) and today came upon the page titled "Do Heroes Read and Write", which pretty much says that the protagonists on TV shows, in movies, comics, and books, are rarely seen/read reading or writing.When I read that, I went '

Someone went and wrote an article about why we should have more superheroine movies. (Yes, this means a link. Why the Comic-Book Movie Industry Needs a Female Superhero.)I can't claim to pass any judgement on some of the movies mentioned (Elektra, Supergirl: The Movie) as I haven't seen them, but I did like the Catwoman movie.

Apparently the snow has brought out a lot of birds, for whatever reason. First there were reams (for lack of a better word, and for the sake of alliteration) of robins. Then there were unkindnesses (that's really what they're called) of ravens. I submit to you my pictures.

It snowed! A lot. I didn't think it would snow at all, but I was wrong. The thing about here is that when it snows any amount, everything shuts down. Schools, post offices, federal offices, businesses; there wasn't really any point in going anywhere. The people next door actually rented a mini-bulldozer to clear out their driveway.

I completely agree.Thanks very much for the 'strong female characters', Comics Industry. However, how many of these 'strong females' are strong in mind? Physical strength is all well and good, but how does that help if you can't outhink your opponent?I also despair at the plight of smart in people in the media. They are1) geniuses with no social skills whatsoever and therefore laughed at

Wonderful things happen in New England.County fairs, lobstering, clambakes, blueberry picking... and the legalization of gay marriage.Unfortunately, no one hears about it. In fact, the announcement of just the fact that this was going on didn't rate mentioning until page 7 of the newspaper. This should have been, in my mind, on at least page 2 or in the 'what's inside' section in the bottom

So yesterday, I beleive, I found an article. An article on healthcare reform.Now this is nothing unusal. Healthcare reform has been all over the news for awhile now. However, it was what they said in the article that really got to me:"We put a lot of money into this program, and get less results than other countries which put in less money and get good results" was essentially what the part that

Today on my way home I found a baby robin. I picked it up, took it home, dried to off (it was raining), fed it, and gave it water.I looked up what you feed baby birds.Then I put it back.That is apparently what you do with baby birds. You should not move them away from where they landed (if they are uninjured). The parents will find it and feed it. You do not need to do anything with it. If you

Its been rather boring. Latin is fun, as is US Government; Art and Geometry are fine, but everything else tends to be just berable. Spent a lot of time filling in forms with the exact same information.Latin is surprisingly like Spanish. I keep having to remind myself to not say it in Espanol (Hispanica!)Here's some Latin for you:Unus 1 Duo 2 Tres 3 Quattuor 4

That's how long its been since I posted. I just realized that. Its a few days till school starts, and I've taken the recent opportunities to good use. Being up to see the sunrise, having a thunderstorm handy today; both great photo opportunities.Has anyone else who watched the Smurfs gotten annoyed by the little blue guys using "smurf" in an non-noun manner?

This isn't all of the pictures, I didn't label them when I transported them. And the videos are apparently the wrong sort of file type to get uploaded (I can't play them on my computer either). If anyone has a solution to this problem or wants to see more pictures, leave a comment. EDIT- I got the videos to load! Something like five months after I took them...

Today was the day all that cleaning was for! And I think we could have done a little less. So the beginning of today was going to the Regimental Dress Parade. All the new recruits to the Academy turned out for their third dress parade of the summer. The marching band(s) were really good. If you have an opportunity to see one of these bands and/or parades, go. They're really good, and besides; the

All this week has been cleaning. Vacuming, dusting, organizing, sweeping, washing the windows. All to make the house "presentable" for some people who may or may not be coming this weekend. It's very tiring.

So, the trebuchets were fun, even though I couldn't really throw much of anything. Yesterday we met the Plebes (first-year Naval Academy students) that we are sponsoring. We've got one from California, and one from Maine. There parents are coming out this weekend to see them and meet us. So a massive house cleaning is in order.

The very last day of Tech Camp, seems like longer than five days since this started. Maybe a week.Today we get to build TREBUCHETS! Those are like catapults, for those of you who don't know. This should be a fun one.The website for the National Cryptologic Museum is www.nsa.gov/about/cryptologic_heritage/museum.

After we got back from the Museum, we did the Cryptogram Game (teppo.tv/cryptogram). Then our instructor introduced us to the West Point Bridge Designer . Apparently, West Point (the Military Academy, or USMA) made this program and there are contests to see who could make the least expensive, strongest bridge they can (bridgecontest.usma.edu). I made a bridge for under $200,000 that could support

Pretty much all of today was a field trip. We went to the National Cryptologic Museum, which is near Ft. Meade. Interesting place, they have Enigma machines (what the Germans used in WW2) that you can actually use. They talk about American Codes and Codebreaking from the Civil War on, at least if there was an area for the Revolution I couldn't find it. They have code interception satellites,

ALL of yesterday was about Alice. Using Alice, programming Alice, all that stuff. I recommend you try it.Remember: www.alice.org.And I was wrong Carnegie Mellon University developed it, and Randy Pausch (who died of cancer sometime not so long ago) was an important contirbutor to the project. He wrote a book, 'The Last Lecture'.

Got in a little late today, so not entirely sure what we're going to be doing today. But its Wednesday now, so our instructors are changing. This afternoon I'm pretty sure we're going to be using Alice, which is a programming, uh, program. You can download it from the internet, I'm pretty sure its an MIT thing.ADDITION: Yep, it's at www.alice.org.
