Mathematicians are weird

I just HAVE to say that this is the weirdest thing I have ever seen in my wiki-surfing.


Hairy Ball Theorem!



Its about the study of surfaces!
Essentially, with a sphere with lines poking out evenly (hairy ball), by combing the hairs flat you will create regions on the surface with different hair densities.
So the ball will have more hair on some spots, and less hair on other spots, with the roots of the hairs evenly spaced out!



What were you thinking?? It's just a hairy ball!

Only By Grace

Only by grace can we enter
Only by grace can we stand
Not by our human endeavour
But by the blood of the Lamb

Into Your presence You call us
You call us to come

Into Your presence You draw us
And now by your grace we come

Getting used to low performance computing

It's been more than a week since my laptop's network card has died and it has been HORRIBLE.

I can only say that me holding the fort without my Thinkpad connectivity is like being Emperor Palpatine without his Force Lightning.

My E63 lightsaber can only go so far..

Arghhhhhh..........

So many things I want to do.
I need time to plan.

Onward.

Always check for toilet paper

This is for Samson and Estella.

Always check for toilet paper.

You never know what your support singers have to do when you're missing......





Okay I confess I think the girls are hot. But still. The lesson remains.

The Book of Torak

"From the timeless reaches of Infinity, I gazed upon the future. And I beheld that there were two Destinies and that they must rush toward each other from the endless corridors of Eternity. Each Destiny was Absolute, and in that final meeting, all that was divided should be made one. In that instand, all that was, all that is, and all that was yet to be should be gathered into one Purpose."
David Eddings, Enchanters' End Game
