I've been teaching and training teachers. It's fairly easy to learn the habit of being aware of the time. There are some classrooms where there's no wall clock, and it's up to the teacher to be aware of time in a way that doesn't distract . Often quite doable. Our current old mtghouse has the bell s...

IE Mystery
Build a site that favors IE, and then somehow people tend to use IE to access it?
Wonder why?

Broadband as Utility
Broadband should be a utility. Because there is no theoretical limit to transmitting data over the network (you just add fibers and routers), when considering that the human population will always be finite, there is no reason why Internet should be regulated like the analog AM/FM radios. Because th...

It is interesting to notice that "Matz" is a Mormon. He doesn't make too much fuss about it, anyways. Also, interestingly, while the main Wikipedia article states that he's a member of the Church and has served as a full time missionary, in the photo section, where his religious affiliation is state...

Branch Size Relevance
I'm not sure if this is useful, but here goes. A branch can have plenty of members, including worthy priesthood holders, when it is outside boundaries of a stake. A case in point is our branch. A couple hundred people, including recommend holding MP holders, but two hundred miles from the nearest wa...

Caution with Google Advised
I would advise caution with Google. Call me a paranoid, but I wouldn't send a sensitive document as email attachment unencrypted. With a three-ring binder you can carelessly leave one somewhere, but the data will stay at one place, and to a certain degree it's possible to track where it's been copie...

Signed the petition, posted here. I am thinking that a lot of people, especially in Asia and Africa, would happily use Linux. Linux means spending less for your hardware, because you don't have to upgrade every time Redmond decides to come up with a new iteration of the same mess, with some eye cand...

One issue, of course, is the low number of JS descendants in the LDS Church, what with so many ending up with the currently-CoC. I remember there was a while ago a somewhat less-publicized incident of the first confirmed JS descendant getting baptized a member of the Church. I can't remember the nam...
