Projects now have a strange dichotomy between graduate and 1st grade: I'm doing advanced statistical analysis, but the topic is hotdogs.

Saturday, waking up to a trip to the ER for my dad's potential broken jaw. He'll be fine, but what a morning.

And finals begins with... epic fail. First question is literally identical to a homework problem. Copy/paste... 1/4th done!

Last night I dreamt an entire episode of Chuck. There was spy stuff, body swapping, and a swarm of bees. The real episode was better.

I just completed an analogy between cold fusion and sex that didn't involve bitter disappointment and fake orgasms.

First truly beautiful day of summer and here I am inside doing Inference homework. Such a love/hate relationship with Statistics right now.

@skyfaller Interesting. I knew there was some issue with "targeted killing" against terrorists, but didn't know this. Got any links?

Factorization is cool. X^2 = Y^2 + 2Y(X-Y) + (X-Y)^2. Trivial, but neat shortcut for calculating larger squares in your head.

Sigh. I really have to check my spelling on here. I'm so used to OS X auto-spellcheck and it doesn't work in these clients.

It appears that House is gonna be filimg at Greystone, down the road from me. As cool as that could be, I hope traffic isn't bad.

It's always fun when the homework question is this: "We've proven we can't construct a test for this. But try anyway."

Thanks to finally having a good advisor, I'm going to be finished with my Masters in Dec 2009... 1 or 2 semesters earlier than I expected.

Meeting with my advisor to discuss next semester's classes today. I always imagine these meetings having a much larger impact than they do.

It's kinda scary how seriously some people seem to take the professional indoor lacrosse league. Also, Prudentica Center boxes are great.
