"Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" is available in PDF format on the Kazaa network. But because I only use Kazaa for strictly legal purposes, I did not download it. I am currently hold 108 out of 131 at the EVPL. I hope a lot of people from #1-107 decide to just buy the book and cancel their holds.

According to CBBC (affiliated with the BBC), Cho Chang won't be making an appearance in the film version of the Prisoner of Azkaban.
What the heck is this? Not one single Asian at Hogwarts! Where's the affirmative action?

computer technology debates
Phuc's sister is giving her only-a-year-old computer to Phuc (good), and buying a laptop instead (questionable). I personally always wanted a new desktop when I got to college, but I've re-examined the issue.
Laptop vs. Desktop
Yale analysis for college students
Mac user's opinion
technology journalist's story
Bottom line: Laptops have mobility (both a positive and a negative--easy to bring around campus, easy target for thieves) and a "chic" factor (but who cares about that). Desktops have power and lower costs. For power users, a desktop is the way to go. If portability is a must for some reason, then laptops would be preferred--but seriously, who actually takes their computers to class with the intention of typing notes? The main disadvantage of a desktop for college students is that moving a traditional desktop system requires a lot of effort, as it is much bulkier than any notebook. In order to cut down on the size of a desktop, consumers should consider using a LCD flat-panel screen instead of the usual CRT monitor.
LCD vs CRT monitors
If price weren't a factor, I'd probably get a LCD. Perhaps the price of expensive-to-manufacture LCDs will drop in the next year before I go to college (cross my fingers).
Interesting note: a good desktop with a LCD monitor costs roughly the same as a good notebook alone costs
Which system/monitor do you prefer?

what campaign finance law?
Desipte efforts to limit private donations to political parties, private funds will cover the bulk of party conventions (yes, I just cited USA Today. Forgive me). Why does this matter? Because most corporate donators to political parties are not seeking to improve the competitiveness of a pluralistic democracy. Evidence seems to point the opposite way. "In 2000, major convention supporters included AT&T and Microsoft, which each gave $2 million to help pay for communications and computers." Hm...those companies don't try to buy officeholders at all.

kayaking downstream
So all of yesterday I was kayaking at Land Between the Lakes. Everyone I knew had already gone to LBL several times for youth groups, middle school field trips, or family vacations, but this was my first experience with nature in Kentucky. We were going kayaking under the guidance of the Kentucky Kayak Kountry.
Yeah, that's "KKK" for short.
So you'll forgive me if I was reserved toward the guides initially. It didn't help that the head guide, who also owned KKK, referred to himself as "Kayak" Jack. No kidding. Strangely enough, kayaking was great! Sure, I would have liked to have not worn my tennis shoes, which immediately became saturated with water (not white water, or clear water, but muddy, brownish water). But the point of kayaking is trying to stay IN the kayak and out of the water, so I guess I don't have anyone to blame for my dumps. KKK also had a mudslide, cave, and zipline to enjoy along the kayaking trip. I didn't participate in the mudslide, which looked awfully painful. The cave was pretty unspectacular, but it was a nice place to rest while we lunched. The zipline however, was great.
It was my first zipline experience, but you just hang onto two straps, which let you slide down on a rope which extends over the water. You let go of the straps halfway over the water as you're accelerating, and fall into the water. Well, if you chickened out, I guess you could hold onto the straps and not jump into the water. But the end result would be the same: across the water, the line was attached to a tree. So fall into the water, or hit a tree and bounce into the water. I chose the former, and it was not a bad choice if I say so myself.
The kayaking itself was good fun, and not too strenuous. We were going 13 miles downstream. Most of that trip did not require paddling because a decent current swept us along.
Upon returning to the KKK store, where our adventure began, the owner of the shop next door, "Grandma's Homemade Fudge," accosted me, "Do you recognize me?" Strangely enough, she did. In fact, as we were starting our daylong adventure that morning, I thought I saw my fifth grade homeroom teacher from West Terrace in the parking lot of Kentucky Kayak Kountry. But I thought, "An Evansvillian, this far into Kentucky? No way." But indeed, there was Ms. Reynolds, undeniably right before me! She invited us into her shop to give us a few fudge samples (the fudge was so good we ended up buying a pound), and I learned that she was Kayak Jack's wife. Wow. Crazy.
And then Kayak Jack gave me my Rubber Ducky award (for the person who dumps into the water first), a mug.
Sometimes the current carries you into strange places, huh?

UTNIFers in finals included Josh Bone, David Tannenwald, and Amaris Singer with 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, respectively, in International Extemp, and Ron Kendler, NATIONAL CHAMPION in Impromptu. Wow, good job Ron.
I'm still interested to see who all I knew made it into break rounds of some event. My source--http://www.victorybriefs.net/vbd/000205.html--only has listings of the finalists.

EVSC's deal with Coca Cola
Excerpted from The Evansville Courier and Press:
If the EVSC can keep its extracurriculars going, I guess they must sacrifice Ski (owned by Double Cola). And I prefer Pepsi, the drink, over Coca-Cola, but which company signed Mya to a commerical?

Excerpted from The Evansville Courier and Press:
EVANSVILLE (AP) -- Indiana's third-largest school district plans to use the money from a nearly $2.5 million soft-drink contract to help pay for stipends to coaches and others who sponsor extracurricular activities.
Money from the five-year contract with Coca-Cola guarantees that sports, drama, band, orchestra and school clubs will continue in the Evansville-Vanderburgh schools, district officials said.

more Potter on my mind
Confession: I read Harry Potter
In fact, I just finished the fourth book at 3 AM this morning. I know you're laughing--I used to snicker at the "Pot-Heads" who would stand in line for the midnight showings of the Harry Potter movies in a lavish Quidditch outfit or wizard robes. Actually, I still do. But at least now, I've developed a healthy appreciation for Rowling's best-selling series. If you have not read any Harry Potter yet, I recommend checking out the first four books from the library. It makes a great summer break filler. Trust me--the only reading I normally enjoy comes from The Guardian and The Economist.
For those of you who have already exhausted the Harry Potter books, no doubt you're eagerly anticipating the release of the 5th book tomorrow night. In case you need your fix of Harry Potter before then, I was recently informed of a whole new universe of Harry Potter fiction: fan fiction. Fan fiction is fictional stories written by fans of a certain item of pop culture, about that item. For instance, several Harry Potter fanfic writers have been expanding on the inevitability of a Harry/Hermione romance. Or is it a Ron/Hermione hate/love relationship? Snape/Hagrid??!!??
Ok, so I haven't read the Snape/Hagrid story, and I don't plan on it, but some of this fanfic is extraordinary. For instance, even those who don't like Harry Potter may like "A Certain Point of View" by B. Bennett, with its Star Wars sub-theme threaded throughout the short story. I end this post with a short excerpt from "A Certain Point of View":
*I credit the majority of links in this post to Tara Zuber, who plans to buy and read Harry Potter tomorrow night*

All four stared at the screen.
"Hey, she kissed him!" Ron exclaimed. "What'd she do that for?"
Hermione tucked her legs beneath her. "It was a good luck kiss, before the swing over that chasm." Hermione sighed. "Wasn't that heroic? Luke's so brave."
Ron feigned a shudder. "Sorry, there's something about those two. They shouldn't be kissing."

"friends forever!"
At the end of every school year, we clutter each other's yearbooks with one-liners like "Stay cool!" and "Keep in touch!"--basically some positive statement ending in an exlamation point. The problem is that this yearbook filler loses its effect once the umpteenth person uses it to sign their place in your memories. And sometimes, this apathy about maintaining our current relationships leads to lost friends in the future.
Not "lost friends" as in fighting with one's friends. Much worse: "lost friends" as in slowly loosing touch with people you once had the best times of your life with. My best friend throughout middle school was Frank Wu. He was a grade ahead of me and lived on the opposite side of town, but we both attended the Tri-State Chinese Cultural Association's Chinese school on Saturdays. Afterwards, often we'd hang out at his house and play basketball, video games, or some other activity I still enjoy doing today. I miss Frank. He moved to California 5 years ago. I've tried a few times to find him on the Internet, but Google returns 3,790 results for "Frank Wu" (in quotation marks!).
So this post is dedicated to never loosing close friends again. And if Frank, Andrew Cheaney, John Hawkins, or Martin Georgiev ever read this, email me and let's catch up on old times, ok?

Speech and Debate Nationals!
According to my Nirav, no one from Sig made it to break rounds in their primary events. Amy will probably try to compete in impromptu, and Rachael has a poetry program ready to go (Nirav has to return to Evansville to attend summer classes).
Good luck to Amy, Rachael, and the other Evansville people still left in the tournament!
On a side note, I find it very interesting that Victory Brief's assessment of Nationals summarizes with
Indiana? A speech and debate powerhouse? Well last year, Indiana had several top OO, FX, and Poetry competitors (and the champion in each of those events!) but those results will be hard to duplicate, and it's very presumptuous to assume that a champion will come from "one of the Evansville schools," as several of the top schools in Indiana are now situated in Northern Indiana.

In other words, watch out for MN, IN, CA, TX, and MO. In particular, it's almost guaranteed each year for there to be a National Champ from Eagan HS, or Apple Valley HS, or one of the Evansville schools, or Bellarmine! Talk about dynasties!

educated rap
The 1500 on the SAT
is not enough
gotta get a perfect
to make my college application look buff
This past week has been a
travesty of summer break
Most people are lethargic and sleep in
But I had to stay wide awake
Cuz' I had to study
and memorize words so long
that when I rap with these words
you can't sing along!
A toady is not an amphibian at all but a yes man
A toady is perfidious, mendacious, and profligate
I love to masticate. MasTIcate, which means I ate.
Hey, I got an idea,
We ain't nothing but mammals
so let's masticate like the simians do it on the discovery channel
And afterwards we may give out flatulence
which will be noisome and malodorous
but it's all good, as long as it's just the two of us
And afterwards we can abscond
and our odor can make a man wan
a wan man can't tan, so he has to resort to chicanery and
spray on a tan
I know you can't understand a word I'm saying
but don't be diffident, try to understand the missive
that I'm conveying
if a wan man can't tan, and he cheats to get a tan, he loses.
so don't cheat for the SAT.
study.
learn lots of new words.

Indeed, there is a frisbee golf course at USI on the cross country course, behind the softball field off the main road. Frisbees are for sale at USI's Rec center and Dick's Sporting Goods by Target Greatland on the east side of town.
