Computer programs are similar to logical proofs. Just as positive whole numbers are the fundamental units for arithmetic, propsitions are the fundamental units of logic. Proposition: A statement that is either true or false. E.g. Today is Monday Today is Tuesday The square root of 4 is 2 The square root of 4 is 1 2 is even, and the square of two is even, and 3 is odd and the square of 3 is odd. The Panthers can clinch a playoff berth with a win, plus a loss by the Rams

Dear Monday As a working adult, Monday is just the same as any other day, dreadful. The thought that occupies my mind the night before is unbarring. Hearing the horrid scream echo through the speakers of my cell phone, notifying me that it is time to start another day with the same routine yet again. Sigh.

A very simplistic example of interpersonal communication in my life is with the person I sit next to in this communication class. On the first day of class, I sat in the same corner I am now, but no one was sitting next to me. You had asked everyone to disclose certain information about ourselves to the class. The questions were very basic, but I do remember one question that allowed Brian and I to make a very simple connection that allowed us to feel comfortable enough to sit next to each other

specifically flagged to get my attention. By the way, do not expect me to respond to e-‐mail on weekends or after 5:00 p.m. on weeknights. I am often online during these times, but there are no guarantees with my extensive travel schedule this Summer. Roger Kerin and Robert Peterson

being there for me today. I apologize for the desk! I moved the furniture and have not had a chance to reorganize. Any class that has completed the literary terms review - and deserves it - will be watching the remainer of the Percy Jackson movie today to finish out our study on Greek Mythology - unless you do not want to bother with that. The file for the literary review is a Power Point on the desktop. If you feel any class is undeserving of the movie, or if you don't want to fool with it, you

2012 Final Take Home Examination Deadline: 11:30am Monday May 6th Please answer the following question: Are racial inequalities in the US better explained by race or socio-economic class?

decision? Being a newly certified correctional officer I have learned the “policy and procedure” way of doing things from the academy, but now I am seeing the “hands on” way of doing things from the more seasoned correctional staff. To say the least some of the ways are completely opposite. One of the main dilemmas I have been faced with is “whether or not to give out inmate request forms” to the inmates if they ask for them. This may seem like an open and closed question, but it really isn’t. See
