Examiner’s First Questions
The end of the thesis approaches. Looking for some inspiration for my conclusion today, I ran across these cute slides from someone in the U of T computer science department. I particularly liked the slides on the Examiner’s View (Uh oh, not another thesis to read…).

And a few more videos while I’m at it
Feist counts to 4. And, you’ve got to love rogue muppet skit creators who have Beaker meeping Ode to Joy and Beaker, Chef and Animal doing Habanera (Thanks to Dan for this one).

Hey- Where my bees at!
This was a featured YouTube video- the Bee-Boy dance crew, spreading the word about disappearing honey bees. Love it. And some of the comments are funny too!

Internet Radio
I’ve been listening to a lot of internet radio recently, and it has me all excited about music. I love that I can hear a song on an internet radio station, get the name of the song and the artist off of iTunes, and then immediately look the artist up on the internet. More often than not, their music is on YouTube. In honour of this, I’ve created a new category in my blog- the music category. I’ll use this category to post about songs and artists I encounter on internet radio. Latest find: A track billed as ‘Rumpelstiltskin’ by Alan Hawkshaw, on Secret Agent Radio. It appears that Rumpelstiltskin is the name of a band, though, so not sure how I’ll find this particular track. Edited to add: I found the album name on the Secret Agent Play list: Mo’Hawk - The Essential Vibes & Grooves 1967+1975

Soccer Stategy
I’m trying to learn more about soccer strategy, particularly with respect to attacking. Here’s a nice page with basic principles for attacking and defending. And here’s a page from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America that talks about different systems and how to match them to your team.
