Like many others at Wesleyan, I often feel judged when I get my bagel from Pi Cafe in the morning. I order my whole wheat bagel with cream cheese, and then squirm under the level gaze of the nice woman working there while she decides whether I will receive 1 cream cheese packet, or 2. Cream cheese packets are one of the mysteries of the universe for me- something I ponder along with my eternal question- why is Heintz Ketchup so far superior to any other brand of ketchup? Seriously - has anyone noticed this? Anyways, the deal with cream cheese packets is that 1 is never enough and 2 is slightly too much. Today, I only recieved one packet and had to sneak back to get another one while pretending to peruse the jelly selection.
On to more relevant subjects. How do people feel about the fact that Google is taking over the world? There are now so many facets to Google that there is a book in our university bookstore entitled "Google-pedia: a guide to google." See, already entire books are being written about this unique corporation. I just found out today about Google.org, which is the philanthropic arm of Google. They focus on three main issues, one of which is climate change (the other two are public health and development). Anyways, they are pouring some crazy money into projects which will help combat climate change - including one called RechargeIt - which gives grants to companies that are working make plug-in hybrid vehicles feasible. This includes rsearch, groups working to influence policy (PlugIn America) and a company called "Hymotion" which has developed Battery Range Extender Modules which allow hybrid vehicles (right now, only the Prius or Ford Escape) to become a PlugIn hybrid vehicles - thus extending the viable range of the car, and decreasing the consumer's direct reliance on fossil fuels. 
The above images came from the company's website, which can be found at:

Seems pretty cool to me - these modules are going to be released in early 2008. My only question is, how expensive will they be?

Hi
cheap prozac
Tell your doctor, too, if you are allergic to any kinds of drugs, or if you have cirrhosis of the liver, kidney disease, diabetes, epilepsy, bipolar disorder or a history of drug abuse.

That is why such patient needs to see the doctor regularly for at least the first 12 weeks of treatment.

Do not take Prozac with pimozide, thioridazine, or a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) as isocarboxazid, phenelzine, rasagiline, selegiline or tranylcypromine.
