    The GRE

    Anyone here taken the General GRE recently, preferably since it was revised/remade in 2011? Advice? How long did you study, what did you use? I'm planning on taking it in November. Won't be applying to schools until winter 15/16, for Fall 2016 enrollment. I was last in a college class in...

    National Anthem in College Football

    Does anyone know why college football teams (Div 1 at least) are rarely on the field for the National Anthem? Any other sport, both teams are on the court, field, or arena floor. I've noticed it at all stadiums I've been to. I think ISU & Iowa were both on the field for the 2010 game at Iowa on...

    Calling all Apple/Mac users

    I've been considering upgrading from my 13" Macbook to an iMac for a while now and will probably pull the trigger on it in November or December. I just saw on the apple site that the newest iMacs will be available in Nov (for 21") and Dec (27"). I knew this update/new version would be coming...

    Random Thought on Ineligible Teams

    We all know Ohio State and Penn State are ineligible for post-season play. Is it weird to anyone else to think that an ineligible team could theoretically determine the national championship picture and other bowl games? If the standings hold true, the 3rd place team in the Big 10 Leaders...

    JaQuarius Daniels article on Sports Illustrated website

    Article (book excerpt) is really about JQ's high school, Reagan HS, but he is essentially the person it centers around. Pretty cool read. I clicked the story on a whim and was super surprised to see JQ's name first thing. You might learn a bit about Daniels reading this book excerpt. Glad to...

    Text message spam from e-mail accounts

    I've been getting text messages from e-mail addresses (yahoo, google, and hotmail domains). Most texts are complete jibberish. The email addresses are random letters and numbers too. Anyone else get this? Any way to make it stop? I've been getting two or three a day for about a week now.

    Miami Heat Soundboard

    SIAP, just got this from a friend on facebook. Apparently a guy was seated next to an annoying Miami Heat fan, so he recorded her for 10 minutes and made a soundboard out of what he heard. heatfansounds.com :biglaugh:

    Technology you haven't upgraded to yet

    The Best Buy 1996 ad thread got me thinking: What technology/new gadgets do you NOT have that seemingly everyone else in your life has? Me: Smartphone or data plan. My phone does have a camera but that's about it. LED/LCD/plasma HD TV. Not even a flat screen. I have a 13" box with...

    Handwriting Question

    I'm in the process of applying for jobs, some which have applications to fill out in addition to submitting a cover letter and resume. I naturally write/print in all caps - I have pretty good handwriting, but find writing in all caps more legible. And I've written that way ever since I gave up...

    Family sends balloon into space

    My inner-nerd thinks this is pretty cool. Best part is that it's just something a dad did for fun with his kids. The video is somewhat nauseating, especially on the descent. Family Science Project Sends Video Camera to the Edges of Space
