NYTimes: Smart Child Left Behind
I would love to get feedback on this article from all my teacher friends. From The New York Times: OP-ED CONTRIBUTORS: Smart Child Left Behind No Child Left Behind is helping low-achieving students, but high- achieving students have been making smaller gains. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/28/opinion/28petrilli.html Get The New York Times on your iPhone for free by visiting http://itunes.com/apps/nytimes

WARNING: Website that tries to trick you to install a virus
I have had multiple people in the office that have had this website pop up from a domain: “antivirus-online-scan7 dotcom”. DO NOT INSTALL any files it is trying to download. The site looks very convincing and tries to trick you into installing software that will actually infect your computer. I haven’t really seen a lot about this online, so I wanted to make sure you were all aware of this!

Thinking about the farm
It's Been a few weeks since we came back from Watkins Glen. I just purchased photogene for $0.99 for my iPhone so I edited this picture of one of the goats.

Thom Yorke - All For The Best
The highly anticipated Mark Mulcahy tribute album is set to be released on September 29th. I haven't been this excited for an album since my days back in College when we would skip class to go buy the latest REM album. Mark has a number of tracks on his MySpace Page, but has not posted Thom Yorke's version of 'All For the Best'. Have a listen. I think its an amazing cover.

I'm not sure how practical this is... but an interesting exercise none the less.
