Sometimes I have streaming shows on my laptop as I work on my desktop. I could be watching anything from anime, to Community, to Modern Marvels. This time I chose something popcorn-light: Fight Science, the most recent in a long series of shows explaining the physics of martial arts. It turned my head when I heard "Wolff's Law." They were talking about how the bones of these martial artists have remodeled to be stronger due to repeated physical stress from training. It's all connected, people.

It's Like 2007, but with a 10

...and this time the SSNs are given out freely:

Dear student:

Early last week, the University of Missouri mailed Internal Revenue Service 1098-T forms to our students via U.S. mail. On January 14th we became aware that, for some of the forms, the Social Security Number on the form was partially or fully viewable through the envelope window.

I am sending this letter to all students who received 1098-T forms since we do not know which students might have been affected. You can determine if your SSN was viewable by visually inspecting how your form aligns with the envelope window.

If your SSN was indeed viewable and you are concerned about the risk of identity theft, you may want to monitor your credit which can be accomplished by contacting one of the national credit agencies: Experian at 888-397-3742, Equifax at 800-525-6285 or TransUnion at 800-680-7289.

Mandatory Break Time

Can't... stop... working on paper. Must... force myself... to do... something else, like enjoy these Family Circus parodies.

Oh Hai I'm in Vox Again

But this time it's to support my friend Mo, and her miniatures! And by the way, the dim sum tray mentioned in the article is in my possession now. It's awesome!
