A recent study has shown that most of the world draws them counterclockwise (left), but some Asian countries draw them clockwise (right). See: bit.ly/CirclesselcriC
Did you have to draw a circle (or at least mentally draw a circle) to remember which way you do it? That might be the universal truth of circle drawing.
I’ve had my assistants contact several BC offices; I’ll have them follow up.
Sorry about the wait! Facilities Management did a full inventory of baby changing stations in restrooms, and gave my assistants permission to make it publicly available: bit.ly/BC-baby
10/10 is not lukewarm. The Wall says to go for it! And to take it day by day.
Lizzo put the sing in single.
Solidarity!
They’re devious, aren’t they! But they haven’t managed to chew their way into my blog, so you can always check the answers there: library.bc.edu/answerwall/ . I did have my assistants alert the folks who alert the exterminators.
Chalk boards have such dramatic potential, though. See: bit.ly/HitchcockBB and bit.ly/HiddenFigBB.
You could, in a reversal of the famous story Cyrano de Begerac (http://bit.ly/BC-cyrano) pen songs for him and have someone with a sweet voice sing them to him. You run the risk of him falling for the singer, but when he finds out you’re the writer, if all goes according to the play, he’ll be smitten with you. If you experience heartbreak, you could turn it into a screenplay.
Find a benefactor? Give it up for Lent? Tell me about this “Scream eagle”; I am unfamiliar.
![Who puts toy dinosaurs all over Higgins Hall? [response: I think his name is ... He's a grad student. Friendly w/ the McDannald Lab.]](https://library.bc.edu/answerwall/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/InkedAW02062020-02_LI.jpg)
It started out with one clever grad student in Higgins, but it has taken on a (Jurassic?) life of its own. I asked one of my helpers in Higginsland, and it turns out that they are actually involved in the fun themselves. And evolution has been occurring: in addition to the dinos, pink flamingos & various fish are now roaming the building.
Most often in plain sight. Most guys could use a makeover, I’m told.
If you mean historically (as opposed to which might dominate Europe in the coming season), Slovakia has placed better in recent FIFA and EUFA competition.
I’m sorry that happened. People we love have the most capacity to inflict pain. Tell them. Their first reaction might be defensive, but give them a chance to get past the shame of having hurt someone they love. Be clear about what will satisfy you: an apology? An amend?
It’s ranked third in the US for MSF programs. If MSF is worth doing, it seems like that would indicate it’s worth doing here at BC.
You may already know that you need to be a season ticket holder to have access to lots where tailgating is permitted. The best tailgate spot apparently used to be Shea Field. Many now gravitate to Brighton. Here are the permitted tailgate locations from 2019: McElroy, Comm Ave Garage/Roof, Beacon Street Garage/Roof, Upper Brighton, Hillside, Robsham/Cove, Campanella Way, Vanderslice, Shea Field, 2150 Comm Ave, Cushing, Walsh, Merkert, & Plex. If anyone has new wisdom about tailgating locations, spill the tea on a post-it.
You already are! Just be yourself!
20 is an exciting age. I wish you a very happy birthday and a brilliant future ahead.
In my opinion, the best course of action would be having an open and honest conversation about how this situation is making you feel. Ideally, you would be able to establish some ground rules you all can agree with.
