Re: A college course on Starcraft...

I'm so pissed off. There are 6 and a half catalog pages dedicated to P.E. Classes but there is only 1 class for the second engineering physics and I'm 9th on the waitlist.

I figured this was somewhat related to the starcraft class.

The core joke of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is that of course no civilization would develop personal computers with instant remote database recovery, and then waste this technology to find good drinks.
Steve Jobs has ruined this joke.

Not many people know this, but I own the first radio in Springfield. Not much on the air then, just Edison reciting the alphabet over and over. "A" he'd say; then "B." "C" would usually follow...

University in Taiwan Opens Porn Course for Students

In order to help students analyze and understand porn movies, a university in Taiwan decided to open a special course.

The course was opened at the Mass Communication Department of Providence University this semester. If a students attempts to pass the course he or she must study the psychological response of the audience to a porn video and then give a 15 minute presentation from the academic point of view.

A student, who decided to remain anonymous, said that if he or she gets a good score on the special course "I don't know how I'll explain it to my parents".

When students choose to attend the voluntary course they sign a paper that states that if a porn clip has too explicit scenes they are free to leave the classroom. Assistant professor Miss Chen Mingmei, who is a teacher at the course, says that by now not one student left the classroom. She added that there were cases when some students closed for a short time their eyes during strong scenes, reports United Daily News.

Over 50 students registered for the special course. The majority of those students confessed that they have previously watched pornographic movies. Most students decided to register for the course because they were curious and their parents don't know what they are studying.

"I am really worried my parents will see the score report when it is mailed home. I won?t know what to say if I get a high score. However if I fail the course, I can speak to my parents and suggest that maybe I should watch more porn," says one of the students.
