This vacation is well-deserved&amp;nbsp;after the LHC collided protons at energies of 2.36 trillion electron volts--the first time&amp;nbsp;proton collisions have occured&amp;nbsp;at over&amp;nbsp;one TeV.&amp;nbsp; This is only a fraction of the energies physicists hope to achieve in the future.&amp;nbsp; When the LHC's winter&amp;nbsp;get-away in the French and Swiss Alps comes to an end, it will&amp;nbsp;shatter it's own world record&amp;nbsp;while running at only&amp;nbsp;half-power (3.5 TeV) until 2011, when it will undergo repairs intended to bring it into full working capacity of 7 TeV per proton in 2012. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

border-top: medium none;"&gt;How does this all work? Very carefully. &amp;nbsp;The facility was&amp;nbsp;paid for&amp;nbsp;and built by over 10,000 scientists from over 100 countries.&amp;nbsp; Proton beams are shot around a 17-mile-long loop to gain speed until the time comes for them to collide with another beam traveling from the&amp;nbsp;opposite direction.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Each beam has&amp;nbsp;the energy of a WWII anti-tank&amp;nbsp;shell in each direction.&amp;nbsp; It's important that nothing goes wrong while they travel around their loop 11,000 times a second.&amp;nbsp; More than 3,000 magnets of various types keep the beams in line.&amp;nbsp; 96 tons of liquid helium keep the magnets and wires nice and cool to avoid resistance.&amp;nbsp;These are kept at a temperature of 1.9 Kelvins (-456.25 degrees Fahrenheit).&amp;nbsp; 0 Kelvins is called "absolute zero" and is theoretically impossible to achieve.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;In other words, the Large Hadron Collider is really cool.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Let's just hope&amp;nbsp;it won't use up the earth's energy supply to quickly.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S3SgPXnpJXI/AAAAAAAABzQ/iKP-IRl_UNE/s1600-h/large-hadron-collider-Lulz.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" ct="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S3SgPXnpJXI/AAAAAAAABzQ/iKP-IRl_UNE/s320/large-hadron-collider-Lulz.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6568184156291155567-4128002416444164252?l=mediumharris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/feeds/4128002416444164252/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2010/02/sweetest-underground-physics-lab-ever.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/4128002416444164252'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/4128002416444164252'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2010/02/sweetest-underground-physics-lab-ever.html' title='Sweetest Underground Physics Lab Ever!'/><author><name>MediumHarris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07614483382528209752</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S7GJB-JAx5I/AAAAAAAAB1g/EjM7SxTvHLA/S220/HPIM1625.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S3SgXob-QsI/AAAAAAAABzY/ZXaMHRiesSM/s72-c/Large_Hadron_Collider_Falcon.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568184156291155567.post-1680267544949156778</id><published>2010-01-31T19:35:00.008-07:00</published><updated>2010-01-31T19:51:45.779-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Mission in Thirty Seconds</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;With midterms rapidly approaching, and in the true spirit of college-studentship, I have procrastinated studying and uploaded a ton of pictures to my blog. &amp;nbsp;So have fun and try not to get lost in the Czech Republic!

The fact that this blog is up and running again is evidence that there may be further updates.&amp;nbsp; These updates cannot be disclosed, but may include pictures from the Czech Republic, blogs submitted by email (woo-hoo!), and general rambling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today's complaint is not about Blogger, but rather about a glaring bias in the Blogger community.&amp;nbsp; After scouring the known internet in its entirety, I found 5 templates remotely related to the sciences.&amp;nbsp; It appears the market is inordinately skewed towards images of swirls, handicrafts, and adorable cartoon children.&amp;nbsp; In other words: The Arts. Unless we take a stand, we are doomed to a cyberspace full of culture rather than lasers and nebulæ. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Case in point: What can we learn from doilies and stamps?&amp;nbsp; On the other hand, scientists recently used slime mold growth to &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8473316.stm"&gt;model the Tokyo rail system&lt;/a&gt;.&amp;nbsp; Researchers also confirmed my hypothesis that the benefits of &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/4181629.stm"&gt;making my bed&lt;/a&gt; do &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; outweigh the risks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We must take a stand!&lt;br /&gt;Step 1: Find me scientific templates&lt;br /&gt;Step 2: Snorkel the animals...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6568184156291155567-775716799104077100?l=mediumharris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/feeds/775716799104077100/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2010/01/updated-blog-and-call-to-action.html#comment-form' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/775716799104077100'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/775716799104077100'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2010/01/updated-blog-and-call-to-action.html' title='Updated Blog and Call to Action'/><author><name>MediumHarris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07614483382528209752</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S7GJB-JAx5I/AAAAAAAAB1g/EjM7SxTvHLA/S220/HPIM1625.JPG'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568184156291155567.post-505393340297817582</id><published>2007-04-22T16:58:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-25T13:05:26.820-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Another Post for Good Measure</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;1100!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/Rivo9YO6wcI/AAAAAAAAAGA/jw48E8aoQHk/s1600-h/1100+Group+Picture.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/Rivo9YO6wcI/AAAAAAAAAGA/jw48E8aoQHk/s400/1100+Group+Picture.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5056391147828199874" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The group of awesome guys I have been living with for the last year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6568184156291155567-505393340297817582?l=mediumharris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/feeds/505393340297817582/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2007/04/another-post-for-good-measure.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/505393340297817582'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/505393340297817582'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2007/04/another-post-for-good-measure.html' title='Another Post for Good Measure'/><author><name>MediumHarris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07614483382528209752</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S7GJB-JAx5I/AAAAAAAAB1g/EjM7SxTvHLA/S220/HPIM1625.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/Rivo9YO6wcI/AAAAAAAAAGA/jw48E8aoQHk/s72-c/1100+Group+Picture.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568184156291155567.post-1137720881034359547</id><published>2007-04-22T15:07:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-25T13:05:26.811-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Piano</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;Short Introduction:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Yesterday, I realized that I have six finals to take and only three days in which to take them.  That means two-a-day finals until the end of the semester.  In the spirit of laziness which I have tried to uphold all year, I have decided to study later and write a new blog entry now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/RivUwoO6wXI/AAAAAAAAAFY/zF-X2YestjA/s1600-h/The+Piano+008.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/RivUwoO6wXI/AAAAAAAAAFY/zF-X2YestjA/s320/The+Piano+008.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5056368938552312178" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Our story begins late on a Sunday afternoon in &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;the partially-lit hallway of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;Stover 1100. A few scheming hall members decided they needed a hall piano so they could play and sing without walking all the way to the lobby or basement pianos (living on campus and right next to a cafeteria is quite lazifying). After many seconds of deliberation, they decided the only feasible way to accomplish this task was to commandeer the lobby piano. They would have to suffer the long walk to the lobby and back pushing the great weight of the piano, but the thought of increasing the quality of life for posterity made the task bearable. They would have to wait for just the right time and just the right place to carry out the deed (the right place turned out to be where the piano was sitting since it would be hard to steal it from anywhere else).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/RivVMIO6wYI/AAAAAAAAAFg/x7htHbCYw3Y/s1600-h/The+Piano+006.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/RivVMIO6wYI/AAAAAAAAAFg/x7htHbCYw3Y/s320/The+Piano+006.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5056369410998714754" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alas, the third-person narrative style grew wearisome and our troubled author began to write in first-person as in the rest of his noble blog entries.  We had ward devotional at 9:00 that night, after which we concluded that our posterity could not wait another minute for their quality of life to be improved.  Luckily, there were old newspapers and church magazines sitting on a nearby table, and we managed to sidle over to the piano undetected using them as disguises.  The only problem was that there were other people using the piano at that very moment.  After eying the piano suspiciously for a few minutes from behind our reading materials and seeing that they weren't getting the hint, we kindly asked their permission to take a turn on the instrument.  They consented (the fact that root beer was being served across the room may have helped).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/RivaAIO6wZI/AAAAAAAAAFo/6QFUJHrFgeQ/s1600-h/The+Piano+001.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/RivaAIO6wZI/AAAAAAAAAFo/6QFUJHrFgeQ/s320/The+Piano+001.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5056374702398423442" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right after ward devotional may not have been the most opportune time to steal the piano, but we managed to get the piano from the lobby to our hall without too many strange looks from passersby.

type='text'>My Conversation With a Plant</title><content type='html'>Hi Petunia.  How are you doing today?  Oh, that's nice.  It's not too dry here for you is it?  Oh really.  That's odd.  I love the cold too, as long as there's snow on the ground.  Cold is pointless without snow.  So how old are you?  2 years old?  Well...that's kind of young for me...So how's Provo treating you?  What type of plant are you anyway?  Oh, a cherry tree.  Why is your name Petunia then?  Wow!  That was an extremely long and interesting story filled with mystery, intrigue, violence, and heroic bravery.  You inspire me.  Well, it was nice talking to you.  I have to go kill a bunch of trees writing my English journal now.  Ok, you too.

The very first thing I did upon leaving school on the last day when it was over was to go home. The next day, I decided that I needed a job. I checked online for ideas, but most of the good websites wanted me to register before I could search for jobs. So I gave up and began to check my email. There was an ad on the side of my webpage for a "secret shopper" position. That sounded cool! So I waited for my dad to get home from his office in Washington D.C. He's the President. So when he got home I asked him to get me a job as a secret shopper. He also gave me a private jet so I could get to work and back more efficiently. I was happy as a clam. When I got to work I found out that I got to buy things at places and fill out forms about the kind of service I received. The best part was that I didn't have to use my own money! So I liked this job. One day, while I was "secret shopping" for a new kitchen sink, I met this girl who became my girlfriend later. Normally I just bought stuff with my company's money and didn't bother to fill out the evaluation forms, but this time I said everything was "excellen" because she was the salesperson. She asked me if I wanted to upgrade to the chrome fixture for only five more dollars, and I jumped on the offer like a pack of dogs on a three-legged cat. I knew we were meant to be together. I shopped there a lot because she was there, then one day I finally got the courage to talk to her. I asked if she wanted me to fly her home to meet my parents. I think she really wanted to go, but something always came up and she never got around to accepting my offer. I came back to shop there three times a day so I would be around if she ever said yes. Then one day I couldn't find her -- she wasn't even in the dumpster out back where she would usually hide. I asked Jerry who works with her where she was, and he said she quit. Some people will never commit to a relationship. Soon after this experience, I found out that my dad wasn't really the President of the United States and that he had been lying to my family for years. It turns out he has an obsession for maxing maxing out credit cards and wanted to hide it from us by acting like he was President. He sure pulled the wool over our eyes. It was the best summer of my life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Caution: This narrative is completely made up.

First of all, I didn't have to get up at 7:00 for religion class, then I got to skip Chemistry because it was a homework day with the T.A. and I finished my homework the night before.  So my only class was at 3:00 PM, and it was movie day.  To top it all off, I finally got my beta version of Windows Vista up and running.  For those of you who don't spend every minute of your lives on or inside of computers, Vista is the latest version of Windows (after Windows XP) and has many awesome features, including security, a much-needed internet explorer upgrade, an awesome user interface, and is the first operating system ever to take advantage of 64 bit proessors.  The full version comes out in a month or so for around $200.  I would put up some pictures, but then I'd probably wake up with a sniper shot through my skull by a Microsoft Special Agent.

His &lt;a href="http://grandbaby.blogspot.com"&gt;blog&lt;/a&gt; has some cute pictures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today was my dual midterms day, which kept me busy.  My first class was at 9:00, then I headed over to the testing center to take my math midterm (actually, I headed up since my class was in the same building as the testing center).  It was pretty easy since my professor let the class know exactly what to study.  I think I aced it.  That took a couple hours, after which I snuck in a quick lunch and journeyed to physics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After class, I spent a couple of hours on my physics homework due today.  My &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Physics for Phynatics&lt;/span&gt; book finally arrived, so I went to my professor's office to pick that up, then set off for the testing center once again.  The chemistry test was suicide.  I wonder if I could have better spent my last two hours and forty-five minutes with a decent grade eating chocolate in the Cannon Center rather than suffering in the testing chamber.  On the way out, I met someone I had never seen before who had just taken the same test, and we talked about it all the way back to my dorm.  It was like we had both witnessed the destruction of the human race in the zombie apocalypse, narrowly avoiding decapitation ourselves.  It's impossible not to relate to someone when you have both been through something so terrible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Both tests completed, I walked to the Cannon Center to get some late dinner.  Luckily, the cafeteria decided it was Chocolate Day today, so there were cream puffs, cake, truffles, fudge, a chocolate fountain, and tubs more of delicious treats creating an out-of-control sugar party in my mouth.  Since then, I have been wasting time on my computer; something which I have not done in days but which has never lost its savor.  Maybe my dual-core processor can equilibrate my dual-test day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6189/656/1600/Fractal.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

As soon as class started, my professor handed out the tests and explained some stuff about the first page very quickly.  Then he said, "See you in an hour" and left the room.  Too bad for any latecomers.  He explained so quickly that I didn't even have my test by the time he disappeared out the door.  So hopefully I did ok on that part.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have 2 midterms tomorrow: Math 190 and Chemistry 111H.  We are discussing quantum mechanics in Chemistry and my professor often alludes to strange concepts keeping him awake at night.  I can't sleep because of two major questions:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1)Why did I sign up for Chem 111 instead of Chem 105?&lt;br /&gt;2)Why didn't I drop the class when I had the chance?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think my only chance of surviving this test comes from my professor's deep resentment of memorization.  In class, he always uses the most complicated equations and longest methods so he won't have to memorize a single constant.  But this irrational behavior means that all the formulas and constants will be listed on the first page of the test, and I can spend my time studying concepts instead of equations.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6568184156291155567-5937610176008807136?l=mediumharris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/feeds/5937610176008807136/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2006/09/2-midterms-down-1-to-go.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/5937610176008807136'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/5937610176008807136'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2006/09/2-midterms-down-1-to-go.html' title='2 Midterms Down, 1 to Go'/><author><name>MediumHarris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07614483382528209752</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S7GJB-JAx5I/AAAAAAAAB1g/EjM7SxTvHLA/S220/HPIM1625.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568184156291155567.post-3513823934680505949</id><published>2006-09-25T20:19:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-25T13:05:26.968-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Tired</title><content type='html'>For my English class, I have to research an extremely narrow topic, and then come up with some original research on a "hole" I spot that no one has researched before.  I guess this isn't the kind of thing I should procrastinate, so I spent a couple hours in the library searching for something interesting.  That's when I stumbled across an article in the &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Advances in Physics&lt;/span&gt; journal called "Dynamics of Wet Granular Matter".  It sounds like a topic few people have researched.  I browsed the article, and it was actually very interesting.  It explains how sand dunes move and the unique forces at play during landslides.  Did you know that underwater sand piles act just like dry ones?  I knew instantly this was the topic for me.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6568184156291155567-3513823934680505949?l=mediumharris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/feeds/3513823934680505949/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2006/09/tired.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/3513823934680505949'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/3513823934680505949'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2006/09/tired.html' title='Tired'/><author><name>MediumHarris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07614483382528209752</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S7GJB-JAx5I/AAAAAAAAB1g/EjM7SxTvHLA/S220/HPIM1625.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568184156291155567.post-6766243444239938498</id><published>2006-09-24T23:41:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-25T13:05:26.959-07:00</updated><title type='text'>3 Entries in One Day</title><content type='html'>Ok, so I was going to be done for the night, but i just found the coolest thing ever.

Now there should be nothing stopping you from making this site your homepage.  Just kidding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just got back from a cousin party at Aunt Caroline's house, which was very awesome.  Now I have a bloody nose, which is not so awesome.  I didn't take my camera, otherwise there would be some cool pictures of my cousins and of my sister Shannon and her husband Andrew.  Here is the sheet of paper my best photo would be printed on:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6189/656/1600/Blank.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6189/656/200/Blank.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I have 4 midterms this week, so I'm going to stop writing now. Or maybe not.  I have some more interesting information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is my name as a fractal (my name made of little versions of my name made up of smaller versions of my name, etc.).  I made a Java program earlier this year that takes equations that define a fractal and draws the picture.  Then I figured out the transform equations to make my name into a fractal.  The program is fun because I can zoom in or out to infinity, since fractals are cool that way.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6189/656/1600/Fractal%20-%20Andy2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6189/656/400/Fractal%20-%20Andy2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;Here's my name.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6189/656/1600/Fractal%20-%20Y.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6189/656/400/Fractal%20-%20Y.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;And here's zoomed in on the "y".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today in history (September 24th):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;1789 -- The Supreme Court is established&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1908 -- The first Model T is finished&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1936 -- Jim Henson is born&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1961 -- I love Lucy airs its last episode&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1996 -- Stephen King releases two novels on the same day&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;1890 -- The Mormon church renounces polygamy&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;2006 -- Andy Harris has the worst bloody nose in American history&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6568184156291155567-3591267677784322422?l=mediumharris.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/feeds/3591267677784322422/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2006/09/almost-some-more-pictures.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/3591267677784322422'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6568184156291155567/posts/default/3591267677784322422'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mediumharris.blogspot.com/2006/09/almost-some-more-pictures.html' title='Almost Some More Pictures'/><author><name>MediumHarris</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07614483382528209752</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_r4OTyw1A5S8/S7GJB-JAx5I/AAAAAAAAB1g/EjM7SxTvHLA/S220/HPIM1625.JPG'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568184156291155567.post-6423006294361822943</id><published>2006-09-18T20:58:00.000-06:00</published><updated>2010-01-25T13:05:27.011-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Schedule 2</title><content type='html'>For those stalkers out there who just &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;have&lt;/span&gt; to know a little more about my personal life,  here is a little treat.
