Week of April 17 2011

Read chapter 4 in Darwinizing Culture.

German 1, Unit 3, Lesson 2, module 5

Read more Excalibur.

Finished Book 1, Chapter 1 and started Book 1, Chapter 2 in Managing Your Money All-In-One for Dummies.

Week of April 10 2011

I've read through chapter 3 in 'Darwinizing Culture', progressed to German 1 Unit 2 Lesson 3 Module 5, read some more Excaliber, and found some interesting sounding sci-fi films.

I did my taxes on Tuesday and the question about opening an IRA made me remember I intended to start retirement savings up again this year.  My understanding is rusty after a few years so I've found several books I'll read/skim to make the best choices.

I was also looking at the NIH calendar of events. It is presentations open to the public.  There are a few I'd be interested in hearing.  May see if the rest of the new group at work would like to too.

Weekend reading

Read the next chapter ( 2 ) in Darwinizing Culture.

Have read 'Pragmatic Thinking and Learning' in the last few months as well as a few research papers on UIMA, 'The God Delusion', 'Bitter Seeds' by Ian Tregillis, and about 30 issues of Excaliber V1.

Have also completed German 1 Unit 1 ( out of 4 ) and am starting Unit 2.
