Privatization 3

One thing to privatize a rail line, another to privatize someone else's land, specifically that land... good job, Ecuador.

Three quick questions from a total noob.
I just joined as there is some interest at my office to have an ongoing game throughout the day, and I suggested webDiplomacy since we can set up our own server with the code from Sourceforge.

The site is currently running slow. It was timing out so I restarted the server. We've let Kestas know, and hopefully it will be running back to normal speed soon.

A serious educational project: part I Mathematics
I plan to spend a month or so this summer creating an individualized experimental math curriculum that would teach the mathematically inclined the subject and its history, starting with basic computations to calculus, number theory, matrices, applied numerical methods, and so forth. Can anyone suggest books, curricula and websites? Is anyone interested in doing part of the research and development with me?

Sweet 16 march madness tournament 2013!
While the Sweet 16 is coming up in the tournament, the games are getting closer and more interesting! Michigan State Vs Duke, Michigan vs Kansas Oregon vs Louisville Ohio state vs Arizona. Even though those aren't the 16 teams but those are the better games. What game sticks out the most? Predictions?

Michigan State vs Duke has to be the pick of the bunch. At least I hope so, can't be dealing with more OSU drama, barely got through watching the Iowa State game

Ohio state has a easy route to the final four. Arizona (PAC 12), la sells or whitchita state

I think Michigan state vs duke is a great match up though. Mike Krzyzewski bs Tom Izzo. It's about time state pulls a upset against duke. All these years of being tortured by duke. Enoughs enough.
Don't get me wrong, we should be easily into the final four, and hopefully further, but then again, we shouldn't have let a 13 point lead slip so quickly, can't take anything for granted in this tournament
I'm going 4 big ten teams in the elite 8

My final four is Michigan state, Florida, Syracuse, and Ohio state. Michigan state can clearly beat Ohio state. They proved that earlier in the season @ Ohio state.

Don't get me wrong but as you can tell I'm a Michigan state fan. I take pride in everything they do and what they do. I try not being so self hearted towards the Spartans in these situations, but Michigan state and Oregon are hot teams in the tournament. With Garry Harris for Michigan state draining three points from the outside, unstoppable. Derrick nix down low posting up. He goes crazy good. I'm impressed with the big ten especially Michigan and Michigan state this tournament.

I remember, Ohio state vs Michigan state. At the Breslin center. The Spartans lost that game unfortunately. Ohio state earned the big ten championship title. I don't mind the buckeyes there a good team all around, but I think Michigan state has more talent defensively.

Big ten = Best basketball conference in the states. I'm pretty sure The big ten will at least make it 2 or 3 teams in final four.

Kansas isn't that great. Kansas gives up the ball to much and can't make easy shots in situations. Sometimes the get hiply and their unstoppable! Well see against Michigan

25 Mar 13 UTC
Ohio state has the best chance, just due to what is left in their bracket.

Mich state has hee hardest path I think, after that Mich does, but Mich did a lot better vs VCU than i though, so I am not sure which Mich team will show up,

Ui....I am still up in the air about them.

Indiana... Ugh I believe they will choke if they play Syracuse. Michigan.. The wolverines will choke against Kansas or the winner of Syracuse FGCU. Lets say Syracuse wins that Michigan will fall. They always do. There is a pattern every year.

I hate UM....hate em, jsut because I have to.

however, they have no pattern. I dont think they have even been to the sweet 16 in the past 15 years, so there is no pattern for them to blow it there.

their basketball program has been tee total trash.

Pattern as in they do good to start the year but end terrible

Even Penn state looked 'good' after 12 games, cuz they all schedule those cupcakes.

Mich does not do well in the tourcney though, that much is 100% true.

Since beilien has been there, they have made it 4 times (including this year) and this is their first time to the sweet 16 since 95 I think.



Their 'pattern' has been to fail before reaching the big stage. They got past VCU, which I thought wasa sure loss for them.

They got over that hump in a BIG way, so lets see what happens.

IThey are a good team, with great guard play, from a TOUGH confenrece. The big 10 has made these teams battle tested, which is why there is still 4 of them standing (wisky, what a HUGE disappointment that one was).

Mich is not done I am afraid, Mich state is not done, Indy might be done....

Indy is about to erupt. Spartans, blue devils . Wouldn't that be sweet is the Spartans and wolverines were the in the NCAA title game?
Pjman (0 DX)
25 Mar 13 UTC
The tournament should be nail biting! The wolverines are quick and can drain threes all day. The Kansas blue jays ( not quite sure if that's their name) aren't that good on defense but in offense they hit threes.

Michigan state has a good advantage with Paine and nixs. There ability down low is way more capable to do so than dukes plumlee. Garry Harris outside with applying should be great for the Spartans. Dukes point guard has a great advantage also. He can take it to the hoop and still drain threes.


Ohio state can walk into the final four for all they care.
I have La Salle winning my bracket. La Salle vs. FGCU

Can you guys review my essay for English?
We have a project in my english class where we have to write 7 essays on a particular topic. My topic is popularity, and I chose to make this particular essay a satire. I showed to my English teacher, but when she was in the middle of the second paragraph she said it was really good but she didn't want to finish it so she wouldn't spoil it for herself when I finally turned it it. So I want to see what you here think. See inside.
