NOVA scienceNOW: Diamond Factory on Hulu. ( http://www.hulu.com/watch/263514 )
"Conducts heat 5x faster than copper" -- well remind me not to wear diamonds out in the desert or in the arctic.

"mined diamonds are all different. like snowflakes, no two are alike." -- I have seen two like snowflakes, 3 times. Yesterday.

Anthrax.... bet you this is how we'd gotten the idea for Resident evil and government made zombie apocalypse.

Those were comments I had throughout the thing, and now, I'm done, so here I am with my weekly update... i still dislike certain aspects of college. for one, their information and resources are scattered over 500 sites and links and ntohing's convenient.

So I'm not sure about you, but I don't like wasting money. I bought a brand new textbook package for physics. It has an ebook and all that. But out physics teacher refuses to use ebooks and wants to go traditionally. And he also talks super slow and he's planning to give us only 4-5 problems a week and I'm not complaining, but I 'm just worried I won't learn. I know I should try and it'sup to me, but there's a reason we have teachers   they are to guide our study. If my teacher is NOT guiding me and I'm doing all the guiding, sure i may pass, but will i be expert? I know I've forgotten all stuff I've learned in other classes even just 2 months ago, so how is this gonna be any different?

Same's true for microbio, but it's not as bad because they have practice on the website atleast.

not quite sure what to make of my philosophy course and i keep confusing my genchem course with my microbio course, so that'll be fun. Still not sure who my advisor is, yet Iwant an advisor to talk to about my chem class.. whatever, I'm starting to see the down side of college. and that's not even talking about the work here too. The upside is friends and independence to do whatever.
