A good time for music, kind of a mini-British invasion in the late 70s with the likes of Elvis Costello, and Squeeze.
Well, I love you, too. :)
Yabut I love you more.
Impossible!
Okay, I just worked through it quickly between calls.
Yes, when I changed that e(pi) to the minus-second power to e(pi) to the minus 20th power, it worked fine. Just a decimal error, it seems. Understandable in such a complicated equation. You’ll get it right next time, I am sure. :)
Classy laz, I’M MELTING!!!!
She has many opportunities to choose from because she is pretty exceptional BUT, when I read such things as this I wish she would just not compete in this competition.
To me the question is to find out just how indoctrinated into the Leftist vain of thought she is.
She is struggling with the question because it is just not her.
In my opinion she is way beyond this tripe.
I delete the name just because.
It is framed and stated as follows:
“The essay is required for consideration of the Presidential Scholarships. It should be of sufficient length to demonstrate your writing ability to the Scholarship Committee and to do justice to the topic:”
“’Insert Liberal University here’ is committed to diversity, justice and sustainability. Our faculty seek to engage students in linking all three of these values through thoughtful involvement in academics and through service activities. Which aspects of diversity, justice and sustainability most appeal to you? How will you try to connect those three when you join the campus community?”
This use to be a Christian university BTW. To me this points way left of what the target should be. She is interested in the medical field. This...just gives me a funny vibe and upsets my stomach. “Diversity, justice and sustainability” to me mean denial of realities of life, hate whitey, worship the false god of eviromentalism. They want my daughters mind! No! Hell no! She is smarter than that, I’m not so worried about her but this generation...it’s bad.
Most FReepers are into politics. So how do we be cruel to be kind to the nation? To the Republican Party? To Leftists?
HOORAY Laz! BUMP!
Bump for later!
Thank you Laz!
*groan*
Yeah, but there ain’t no oxygen there. We could send them there and keep Earf.
Luckily, WE won't have to.
The Gods of the Copybook Headings will do it for us.
Weakness of the very spirit of society has given rise to the Snowflake Generation. Now, today’s young need ‘safe spaces’ and ‘protection from triggering’.
And, to give a nod to your post, it is because we haven’t given tough love to this generation (and, almost certainly, to ANY generation this side of that idiot, Dr. Spock - who definitely said to “spare the rod.” Well, that spoiled entire generations of children. The world is a tough, cruel place. While we quite naturally seek to make it less tough and less cruel for those whom we love, our puny actions will never change all of society (which is to say, we cannot change human nature). All that we can do, by trying to be kind, is to leave those we love less (or completely) unprepared to deal with the world AS IT ACTUALLY EXISTS. We should teach our kids and grandkids to be tough competitors, while also teaching them to be kind and generous to others wherever that is possible.
So many safety nets? ... Check out the Cloward-Piven strategy. These ‘safety nets’ are ‘pooping’ up because the original plan A was too obvious and society rejected it in the main. But the America haters never sleep. They are fully committed to end The Republic, any way they can git er dun. The just ending election cycle proves the bastards are succeeding!
Have you slipped a decimal in your theta value?
