Goodbye, Berkeley. The last 7 years were good.

| Go to class!Many students all around the country are in the last weeks and days of classes.
This morning, my roommate asked me, "Should I go to class (It's the last one)?"
My response:
YES, YOU SHOULD GO TO CLASS
If anything, even if you mostly did webcast, even if you're getting a bad grade in the class, if the professor was any good at all, you should go to class on the last day of class just so you can clap for them. The same applies for sections and your GSI (Graduate Student Instructors). Really good professors will get a standing ovation.
On a separate but related note, it's rare that students will clap at the end of lectures in the middle of the semester, but only for really good professors who gave an outstanding lecture.
Show some respect.

| FencesHello everyone! I had come across this before, and I wanted to implement it, so I started searching around for a product, and eventually came upon Stardock Fences. It's really cool, and definitely a big help for productivity, so try it out!

They have it for Windows XP and Vista. No more cluttered, unorganized icons!

| Good FridayOn this day, my Savior went to the cross.
Isaiah 53 (NASB)
Who has believed our message?
And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
For He grew up before Him like a tender shoot,
And like a root out of parched ground;
He has no stately form or majesty
That we should look upon Him,
Nor appearance that we should be attracted to Him.
He was despised and forsaken of men,
A man of sorrows and acquainted with grief;
And like one from whom men hide their face
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.
Surely our griefs He Himself bore,
And our sorrows He carried;
Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken,
Smitten of God, and afflicted.
But He was pierced through for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our iniquities;
The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him,
And by His scourging we are healed.
All of us like sheep have gone astray,
Each of us has turned to his own way;
But the LORD has caused the iniquity of us all
To fall on Him.
He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
Yet He did not open His mouth;
Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,
And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,
So He did not open His mouth.
By oppression and judgment He was taken away;
And as for His generation, who considered
That He was cut off out of the land of the living
For the transgression of my people, to whom the stroke was due?
His grave was assigned with wicked men,
Yet He was with a rich man in His death,
Because He had done no violence,
Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.
But the LORD was pleased
To crush Him, putting Him to grief;
If He would render Himself as a guilt offering,
He will see His offspring,
He will prolong His days,
And the good pleasure of the LORD will prosper in His hand.
As a result of the anguish of His soul,
He will see it and be satisfied;
By His knowledge the Righteous One, My Servant, will justify the many,
As He will bear their iniquities.
Therefore, I will allot Him a portion with the great,
And He will divide the booty with the strong;
Because He poured out Himself to death,
And was numbered with the transgressors;
Yet He Himself bore the sin of many,
And interceded for the transgressors.
