George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950), Man and Superman (1903) "Maxims for Revolutionists"
You see things; and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?"
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950), "Back to Methuselah" (1921), part 1, act 1
Don't let fear convince you that you're too weak to have courage. Fear is the opportunity for courage, not the proof of cowardice.
McCain, John (2004, September). In Search of Courage: Finding the Courage Within You. FastCompany, 51-56.
In the search for character and commitment, we must rid ourselves of our inherited, even cherished biases and prejudices. Character, ability and intelligence are not concentrated in one sex over the other, nor in persons with certain accents or in certain races or in persons holding degrees from some universities over others. When we indulge ourselves in such irrational prejudices, we damage ourselves most of all and ultimately assure ourselves of failure in competition with those more open and less biased.
J. Irwin Miller, Chairman of the Board (1951-1977), Cummins Inc. From 1983 letter about diversity at the company.

A day that simply won't go right *sigh*
After two days of knock-your-socks-off coolness, I got a day that simply refuses to go right. My morning bits - email, RSS reading, blog posting, etc. - took far to long so I didn't get started on my project for the day before I left the house. Of course I also left the house later then I planned.
Once I got to the Indy campus it took forever to get the VPN to recognize my laptops existence on the network. Then I found that some strange malady had effected the campus email system so I could log-on but it showed no email, none in the main screen none in the folders. *ok deep breathes don't panic*
Then after multiple log-ins and still finding no email I tried to log-in and was denied access. Which in a perverse way is a good thing. It means they have everyone locked out and are probably working on the problem. Good read cause now I'm in the system and I have email...lots of email.
I needed in the email system so I could pull up the information for reviewing Association of Internet Researchers Conference Abstracts. Of course I tried finding the links I needed on the official site but they were not speaking to me. I believe they have to be there but I sure couldn't lay my cursor on them. Then after the email was back up and I had the link, my log-in for the AoIR site will not work. So now I am waiting for a reply to tell me what log-in and password to use to access the system. I had hoped to knock out all the reviews before class this evening, having budgeted about 3.5 hours for the work. But right now I have wasted an about two hours trying to get everything to work. *sigh* Well at least the sun is out and shining in through the windows of the IT Building.
