Thanks to Max for pointing this out to me. This is a well-respected author and prosecutor.

Ten days from now marks the culmination of our education as seniors.  It's hard to believe that it's been four years.  A year of senior design is nearly behind us.  We have researched, written proposals, made designs, assembled circuts, troubleshooted, redesigned, troubleshooted some more, redesigned again, ripped our hair out, wired circuitry, troublehooted again, rewired, etc.

Many people worked on projects with old friends.  Some worked with new friends.  Some worked with people they didn't like.  Some learned teamwork, some learned how to work with other disciplines.  Throughout it all, we have all learned and grown from our various experiences throughout the year.

With the exception of a presentation we still have to give, our senior design projects are over.  Now is the time to step back and relax and look how far we've come.  Now is the time to show the public what a group of instructors, mentor, students, and sponsors can accomplish with some passion, drive, sweat, tears, dreams, and a little money.

Everything you thought you knew about Columbine is wrong.  The facts, known for a long time, are finally being told by the media.

A Boston College student has had his computer, phone, and other personal items confiscated by the police.  The reason: he is a proficient computer user AND (oh my god) he knows how to use Linux.

It turns out that Ronald Reagan was a snitch during the Red Scare.

In an official session, this fool decides to spout from the bible, using it to show that we do not need to take care of the planet because God will take care of us:

While my inclination is to apologize if I offend anyone, I am not going to.  The pope is a moron.  He was in Africa, where HIV/AIDS is out of control and had the audacity to say that HIV/AIDS "cannot be overcome through the distribution of condoms, which can even increase the problem".

Pardon my french, but how the fuck are you going to go into a place like that and tell them that condoms are going to make the problem worse?  That's like going to a demolition derby and telling the drivers that wearing helmets and seat belts could increase their chances of injury.
