Authority: 108
James K.A. Smith recently posted about how he found a full copy of Wittgenstein’s Philosophical Investigations on Scribd .

What I Would Buy —
Authority: 139
Brian Francis Slattery, author of two of the most original novels of recent years–Liberation and Spaceman Blues–has extremely eclectic reading tastes.

Six LDS Writers and A Frog —
Authority: 120
by Sariah S. Wilson My oldest son has finally read my books. This, he informed me, is solely due to him not having enough to read. He reads as quickly as I do, and devours books on a daily basis.

Pleasure for the Empire —
Authority: 134
IMDB makes it harder and harder to get listed. It used to be that just getting a little blurb in the Hollywood Reporter was good enough. Then we found we had to wait till our distributor had the movie up on their site. Now, that isnt even good enough -- they insist that we have an actual DVD street date for the ...2 hours ago -

Im working on the group assignment about the history of the microprocessors and Ive chosen to write the part about modern CPUs starting from about 2002 till today.

I had an unnecessarily rough (to me) gynecological experience in a foreign country; when I told my doctor about how much it had hurt, she looked mildly alarmed and recommended I start using tampons before I started having sex.
