Alright I'm trying to figure out from an article I'm reading how to read the results of the study.

"Physical well-being
In this study, physical well-being included physical health status, blood pressure and the occurrence of falls. Participants had a mean physical health status score of 48∙56 (SD 7∙23) at pre-test; 53∙27 (SD 6∙79) at post-test I; 53∙12 (SD 7∙76) at post-test II; 53∙26 (SD 7∙27) at post-test III; and 51∙10 (SD 8∙74) at post-test IV (see Fig. 1 for the mean values and standard deviations of the four physical health concepts). The RANOVA indicated that the participants’ physical health status was significantly improved after the Tai Chi intervention
[F(4,17) = 3∙42, p=0∙038]"


How do you read the results of this, like the numbers?

Can someone rewrite it in percentage or something?

So I haven't touched this thing in awhile. Heh I still have to write about my time in Colorado and British Columbia back in Feb/March. I'll get around too those eventually ;)

Suffice to say though, on those trips I met some really awesome people and I don't think I have had the chance to say thank you to tekfox for running the ski weekend. I am definitely going to go back next year if I can scrounge up the money (and time).


So Now that school has ended and I've moved back home to Port Hope, I'm up and ready to move again.  Tomorrow at 7:45pm I will be boarding a plane to British Columbia and arriving in Vancouver at 9:47pm, where I will be picked up by my boyfriend =)
I'll be in BC to work this summer, and already have a couple job leads. In August I'll be coming back to Ontario, but not empty handed, I wanted a souvenir for my travels and decided to take my boyfriend with me xP.

Sometime in August Varr and I will be taking a long road-trip from BC to Ontario, and moving into our new apartment which is situated on the border of Dundas and Hamilton; close by to McMaster University. Then I'll be attending my studies there (in the IAHS building, partially Mac and Mohawk student).

I couldn't be happier ^^, and a little nervous =P

I have less then 24hrs and I'll be in BC; can't wait!! ^^

I should finish packing up somethings. I still don't know what I should bring for the summer.


 See y'all later. Oh and if any BC furs wants to hang out this summer, hit me up!

I was wondering..



                    Does anyone know how to create torrents and stream/seed them to just one person? I'm trying to get a large file off of a friend and that id the only way I can think of; I know it can be done but I have no idea how to do it.


I'm using the Utorrent program if that makes a difference.



Any help would be great! Thanks.

I'm new at physics and this is the first semester of me taking the course.

I've been struggling with a few questions all weekend and can't seem to figure them out. (sucks too since I have a test on Monday)


I know it's kind of a lot of questions, but that is out of 56 questions I had to answer.. Please if anyone could help me out that would be greatly appreciated.

Well I managed to find my passport thankfully, I searched over my room 5 times and completely distroied it >.>

I had to skip school yesterday and miss 2 or 3 tests, so I could travel to my moms place to find my passport. Ugh yesterday sucked, got like 2 hrs sleep that day and I was running off of coffee and energy drinks.


Anyways, I stayed as my friends Husker's place last night since it was closeish to the airport and got the airport taxi to come pick me up. It was nice and cheap too; just $33.00.

Now, I'm sitting in the airport, all bags checked in and I've gone through customs; my flight doesn't leave until 9:50am. I'll be arriving into Denver, Colorado at 11:35am, there times I'm guessing.

Once I'm there I have no idea what to do.. Not sure who is picking me up.

Crap  Crap  Crap  Crap  Crap  Crap  Crap  Crap  Crap !



I can't find my passport!!!!!!   >.<

So I'm trying to start planning my route on how I am getting to the Toronto Airport with all of my gear and it is looking to be quite the challenge.

On Wed Feb 20, After I finish my midterm in Hamilton I plan on going to Toronto, hoping to stay with a friend. Then from there try and get to the Airport. I've mentioned it to my friend husker_fox which I should remind him to see if I can stay at his place.

I wish I could drive =/

My only option looks to be, catching the bus from the Go Station and riding it for 1hr and 30min, at 5:00am. That's if I'm able to stay in Port credit.

Yay dilemmas!

Well I thought I'd help Lace out and cross-post his recent one in my Journal.

T'was the night before Christmas,He lived all alone,
In a one bedroom house,Made of plaster and stone.
I had come down the chimney, With presents to give,
And to see just who,In this home did live.
I looked all about, A strange sight I did see,
No tinsel, no presents,Not even a tree.
No stocking by the mantle, Just boots filled with sand,
On the wall hung pictures,Of far distant lands.

With medals and badges,Awards of all kinds,
A sober thought,Came through my mind.
For this house was different,It was dark and dreary,
I found the home of a soldier,Once I could see clearly.
The soldier lay sleeping, Silent, alone,
Curled up on the floor,In this one bedroom home.
The face was so gentle,The room in such disorder,
Not how I pictured,A Canadian soldier.

Was this the hero, Of whom I'd just read?,
Curled up on a poncho, The floor for a bed?
I realized the families, That I saw this night,
Owed their lives to these soldiers, Who were willing to fight.
Soon round the world, The children would play,
And grownups would celebrate, A bright Christmas Day.

They all enjoyed freedom, Each month of the year,
Because of the soldiers, Like the one lying here.
I couldn't help wonder, How many lay alone,
On a cold Christmas Eve, In a land far from home.
The very thought brought A tear to my eye,
I dropped to my knees, And started to cry.
The soldier awakened, And I heard a rough voice,
'Santa, don't cry. This life is my choice.
I fight for freedom, I don't ask for more,
My life is my God, My country, my corps.'

The soldier rolled over, And drifted to sleep,
I couldn't control it, I continued to weep.
I kept watch for hours, So silent and still,
And we both shivered, From the cold night's chill.
I didn't want to leave, On that cold, dark night,
This guardian of honor, So willing to fight.
Then the soldier rolled over, With a voice, soft and pure,
Whispered, 'Carry on Santa,It's Christmas Day, all is secure.'
One look at my watch, And I knew he was right,
'Merry Christmas my friend, And to all a good night.'

This poem was written by a peace keeping soldier stationed overseas.
The following is his request. I think it is reasonable. PLEASE. Would you
do me the kind favor of sending this to as many People as you can? Christmas
will be coming soon and some credit is due to our Canadian service men and
women for our being able to celebrate these Festivities. Let's try in this
small way to pay a tiny bit of what we owe. Make People stop and think of
our heroes, living and dead, who sacrificed themselves For us.
