Does anyone else find #att commercials weakly trying to make bad service sound good annoying. Fix it instead of misleading us.

IMS Basic LTI LMS Certification looking good - It caught three small errors I made in Sakai 2.7.0 support for Basic LTI - so that feels good
@scottbw LMSs will self-assess using the IMS Basic LTI certification suite that I provide and then send in a self-report.

IMS Basic LTI LMS Certification kind of works. Now to make it more usable and a bit prettier.
Made some mental breakthroughs on IMS Basic LTI certification design. Tomorrow should be productive.

@granludo No picture until I get in better shape :). You know that once you put something on the web you can't take it down.

Tattoo complete. Much less pain than I expected. Aftercare for two weeks is very detailed.

Tattoo countdown - 5 hours.
Grades are in for #si539 - Grades for #si502 are in but not yet finalized pending double checking - #si502 should be there in a few hours.
@sunnybeach You can send me E-Mail - and I will make the changes.

@bwshields It just seems a rather odd time in life to be getting a first tat. -- I waited until I was sure I was not going to be a model.

@bwshields yes. My very first tattoo. Why do you ask?

Tattoo appointment scheduled for Saturday at 5PM - we will see if I go through with it. I don't want to lose my $10 deposit.
@g_gerg - I see it was based off of work by Allen and Jeff, nevermind about relicensing it yourself. @drchuck - I might switch to CC-BY

Well my real first draft is done and ready for review - http://bit.ly/8okXQ4

Chapter 9: Dictionaries is done - Only two more to go - 10: Tuples and 11: Data Structures
Chapter 8: Lists is done - Chapter 9: Dictionaries needs a bit more work...
Chapter 7: Files is done. The rest of the book should be pretty quick because the base text is already in good shape.
It is hard to proof-read a book with a cat on your lap. http://twitpic.com/uss19
I am slowly falling in love with LaTeX (the text formatter not the substance) - I wish it handled images better and figures were prettier.
Chapter 7 (Files) is alpe d'huez - so today we get an early start with plenty of coffee.
Like @holdorph, @microcline i am concerned about anyone who claims to hate caddyshack
Done with Chapter 6, Strings. Turned out nice. Now on to Files - needs some real redo.
Tasty food tasting at GFS!

I.have read the entire book. I should make good progress. The Files chapter is the last complete rewrite.
Chapters 1-5 of "Python for Informatics" are in pretty good shape. Next up: strings and files. The rest should go quickly.

Drew my first figure in XFig - it is like going back in time to 1982 UI-wise. Keynote is much easier to draw in.

At Crisler Arena for UMich graduation. Looking forward to the ceremony.

Struggling with where to put the functions chapter in the Python book... Early or late? I think it is my last big decision on the T.O.C.
