The first week of classes means lots of running around: checking on books, getting syllabi photocopied, wrapping up summer computer deployments, etc. And I’ve been running around the track, too; good speed work on Tuesday 8/21 (12 x 400m @ 1:40 or better (6:40/mi)) and a tempo run today (5mi, 41:20, or 8:17/mi). Missed a [...]
Erin just pointed this out to me: those “too busy” to make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches need not worry; Big Food has got it covered.
Every now and then, a witty lede gets by the AP style police:
English megastar David Beckham resumed his tour of American soccer benches on Sunday, sitting out the Los Angeles Galaxy’s game against the New England Revolution to rest his tender left ankle.
Another 15 mile run today: 2:20:20, or 9:20/mi. Much better than last week; 0:25/mi faster, and only 45 seconds difference between front and back splits. But yikes, what a sweatfest. I literally wrung out my shirt (sleeveless and CoolMax, but still soaked) afterward. During the run I drank two liters of water, and two afterward [...]
Yeehaw, I made a good jump in speed today, running four miles under eight minute pace for the first time in forever: 31:47, or 7:57/mi. That maps to a 1:51 half, or 8:28/mi, which is fine with me.
Saturday or Sunday I’m going to run another half. I’m hoping for 9:15/mi, which is 2:01:15.
Brady Quinn is holding out. Dumb move. How will he prove that, as he claims, he’s better than 22nd pick of the first round if he’s not in camp? Unless Golden Dome Boy gets his butt to Berea soon, the only thing he’s going to hold the rest of the year is a clipboard. And [...]
I haven’t been able to get to the CSS Zen Garden in quite some time. Apparently, the domain name expired, and I guess it hasn’t been restored yet.
Can anyone suggest a similar site?

It’s been a little more than a year Western’s server security breach. Has data security on campus improved? Unfortunately, in many ways, not yet:
Campus wireless networks offer anonymous access to anyone.
Wired networks distribute IP addresses indiscriminately.
Plain-text logins abound. (Indeed, telnet to the campus Unix cluster is still supported!)
Non-encrypted webmail is supported (and will be, apparently, [...]
