So is anyone else seeing Tweets on YT pages now?  This must be yet another feature they've added. :blink:

OMG, talk about a coincidence!  :o The same thing that happened to Zach and Curt happened to me in school today! Some one lit a trash can in the boys locker room on fire! The whole building had to be evacuated, for the second day in a row! Yesterday, we had the building evacuated and the fire department come all because of a burnt bagel. Are you kidding me? I can't believe the same thing that happened to Zach and Curt happened to me today, I thought that would never happen at my school, well, I guess I underestimated that. :rolleyes:

I've seen the same thing happen when I was in high school too, it's about as worse as lighting firecrackers in a crowded hallway, the same hallway where most of the admins. usually are and couple of them have their offices. How dumb can you be? You're begging to get caught. :rolleyes:

I need an honest opinion from you folks - I got hooked getting weather information out to people since that recording a few days ago, so last night I started a blog for our website. It's located here.

http://theweathercentertwco.wordpress.com/

What do you guys think? Too technical, too many pictures, too cluttered, just right? Any opinion would help.

As for the trash cans, I've never seen or heard of that happening in any of my schools. In middle school, it was always bomb threats during exam week.  :wacko:
Tiddlywinks.

Too many graphics on one page.  That could take forever to download on slower connections.

I agree with Eric about the pictures, but other than that they were great blog entries, writing wasn't too technical. I think pretty much anybody would be able to understand what you're saying although some folks might not know what the word "diurnal" means but that's not a big deal.  ;) Also you did quite a bit of blog entries today, not that there's anything wrong with that given the situation.

My gosh.  And I thought I went to a bad high school. :blink:  If that stuff did happen, I was certainly unaware of it.  There were mainly just fights at my school, and usually between girls (which let me tell you, can be much more vicious than guy fights). :P

Good luck!

So long as you've prepared (and I'm sure you have), you shouldn't have anything to worry about.  Don't let the pressure get to you and you'll do fine.

Hope you did well, Zach.  I remember taking it three times, but my best score came on the first one.  I'd also recommend taking the ACT later as I think it's way easier to get a better score on it compared to the SAT.

Yes, and IIRC you don't get penalized for getting wrong answers on the ACT unlike in the SAT.

Big fire in the backyard of a neighboring house, they contained it before the fire department came. Nobody was hurt.
