This is not a good plan.Weird things can happen with bodies, but you don’t need to encourage it. http://bit.ly/brain-leak

The Unpopular Diner has a soup and sandwich special today: waterlogged Life cereal and a hot dog! Epistemology is fun but maybe not the best way to make menu or life choices?

Here’s what we have at BC Libraries: bit.ly/BC-chinese-poetry. You’ll note that the call numbers are all similar: PL2250–PL3208 (on O’Neill level 4) is Chinese literature. One of my assistants recommends The New Directions Anthology of Classical Chinese Poetry, with translations by many well-known American poets (O’Neill Library PL2658.E3 N46 2003) so you can see a variety of translation styles and decide for yourself.

I’ve had my assistants send a message to my friends at the Office of Residential Life to find out.

I recommend giving these a listen: Ride – Nowhere / Seefeel – Quique / Verve – A Storm in Heaven / Boo Radley’s – Giant Steps

I think it’s Canada Gosling.

To build a well-off society in an all-around way, and to move towards prosperity are laudable goals. Let’s all ensure, with all of the means at our disposal, that our representatives carry out the goals they proclaim.

Sadly, I cannot. There are limits even to my knowledge. However, you can probably call the service number on one of the machines with it and see if they can tell you more.

Not this semester. My friends in the Digital Studio have been a little understaffed recently, so they’ve had to scale back on workshops. I’m told that they have new staff coming on board this summer and should be able to ramp up for the Fall. I’ll be sure to pass on the demand for digital art workshops!

Unfortunately, this sounds a bit like a homework question, so I’m going to decline to answer for now. However, I will note that my friend’s proof above is not the correct path. The correct form of the equation is E=M*(C^2), but the helper has assumed (or incorrectly stated), that E=(M*C)^2 in their proof. You cannot root both sides cleanly: √E=(√M)*C.

These are all correct. I’m honestly unsure that P can equal √E. But any physics faculty member can probably help answer that definitively.

I’ve heard rumors of some elderly walls grumbling about the lack of Latin, but it seems like it’s been a boon for the Church in encouraging new parishioners in many locales around the world, which was one of its intended effects, I believe. For more details, check the 1,172 items we have in our collection on the topic: bit.ly/BC-vatican-2

Sadly I’m don’t travel around much (although I have been known to go to some Boston-area conferences in the past). I’m going to have to sit this one out I think.

You had better check in with the Office of International Programs right away! Phone: (617)-552-3827; Email: oip@bc.edu

Trust is the soil of love. Without it, love withers and dies. Real talk: when someone can’t trust someone who loves them unconditionally, there are two possibilities: one, he doesn’t love you, or two, something in his life damaged his ability to extend trust. Trust is risky, and takes the willingness to be vulnerable. If he can’t do that, move on. There’s a third possibility, and it’s the hardest one to look in the eye: you don’t love him unconditionally; you love a version of him that you want him to be.

The Bapst Library, named for the first president of Boston College, served as the original Library, and in 1993 was designated as the Art Library. Bapst now supports the (increasingly) interdisciplinary teaching and research needs in the areas of Art, Architecture, Museum Studies, and Photography. While the Burns Library is located in the same building, it operates separately and houses a range of rare books, special collections, and archives. Burns Library is best known for the strengths of their Irish and Irish American collections and those which reflect Boston College’s Jesuit, Catholic heritage, including British Catholic authors, and also houses the University Archives.

The Left is the less common hand to write with.

IDK, but if it is, the seed of the idea will be in one of these papers in arXiv: bit.ly/reimann-geometry. Good luck to you!

I’m sure there are as many perspectives on this as there are books about Reformation. At present, there are 3,851 items on the subject of reformation just in BC Libraries (bit.ly/BC-reformation). It might be hard to establish a definitive yes/no answer, but if there is one, reading 3,851 books is probably where to begin.
