The good news is that you'll never get over it. In my youth I developed severe, disfiguring calcifications of the scalp, which required surgery. The result was suboptimal, I still have numerous lesions left, and I face…

Credit for this is optional. Another way to see obtain a partition of G is to observe that the relation x ~ y if and only if x = y or x = y^{-1} is an equivalence relation on G. The equivalence classes induce the…
Note on the problem that a group G of even order contains an element of order 2. Partition G into classes {{x,x^{-1}|x\in G}. This is a partition since inverses are unique. For x\in G, call {x, x^{-1}} the class of x.…
Gee, I routinely ignore queries from Google, Amazon and Microsoft.
No word about Vista's DRM and the difficulty this is causing many multimedia content providers and others. Economist David K. Levine called Vista "one of the colossal business blunders of all time" in the following…
"I don't know about unparalleled." That means, "compared with CUNY."
As I recall, the Oakland Science Museum is focused on technology. The American Museum of Natural History is a better museum in many ways, but its focus is entirely different. The Hall of Science seems like a leftover…
Since we're on the subject of the politeness of New Yorker's and the attitude that everything has its price, in New York, a simple "thank you" might be considered a costly acknowledgment. Here's a dismal example by…
