The Arboreal Sequestration Project: Diversity
http://michlawblog.blogspot.com/2005/07/diversity.html
The Arboreal Sequestration Project. Second-year law student at the University of Michigan, and I have. Little time on my hands for whatever reason. There are other such people. This will be a forum for a wide variety of bullshit, so let's get started. Wednesday, July 06, 2005. Let it be clear: blogs related to politics and the law are far from the only ones I read. Two new additions include that of a Manhattan consort. Be she real or not, and a design blog. Posted by Mr. Gitlin @ 10:18 PM. So Long, Sandra.

Malvolio: March 2005

Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em." And some of us would settle for mediocrity. Thursday, March 31, 2005. Thomas Bogg, the Viagra (TM) of funny left-wing blogging. Too bad there's no cure for America's version of ED - Electoral Dysfunction. Welcome to Gilead. You can leave your uterus with us. Forget it, Sparky. Sex is for babies, not for pleasure. Well, her pleasure anyway. Hmmm, anyone for an updated Lysistrata. Posted by Tom Beck @ 8:55 PM 0 comments.

The new transportation bill, known in the jargon as TEA-3 or TEA-LU, is already a disgraceful mess so replete with pork that even my almost secular Judaism can barely stomach it. Someone who ca...

Namespace Collision: Math Post the Sixth: Isomorphism
http://dbfclark.blogspot.com/2005/06/math-post-sixth-isomorphism.html
Friday, June 17, 2005. Math Post the Sixth: Isomorphism. To restate the conclusion of the first paragraph in nicer language, we classified all groups of prime order up to isomorphism: a group of order p is isomorphic to a clock arithmetic (or cyclic) group of order p, via the isomorphism defined by taking any nonidentity element to the generator 1. Next time: what groups are homomorphic images of other groups. Posted by Dennis at 3:36 PM. Isn't the short way to say 'one-to-one and onto' just "bijective"?

Thursday, July 21, 2005. Math Post the Eighth: Personal Interlude with Some More Definitions. So I am now officially a doctoral candidate! Also I'm now (or will soon) be attending a lengthy algebraic geometry conference in Seattle, so I'm not even in Michigan anymore. Perhaps most importantly from a blogging perspective, I'm not madly studying every second of my day anymore (merely some seconds), so I should be able to get back to blogging on a more regular basis. So nyah, say I! Making an assumption lik...

Namespace Collision: September 2004

Thursday, September 30, 2004. I'm watching with rapt attention, but I have a problem: I find, and have always found, George W. Bush totally insuffferable in manner. Much though what he says disagrees with my thinking, all those "likeability" things that are supposed to be so much in Bush's favor make him utterly unlikeable to me, and I suspect would even if I agreed with the man.

Wednesday, August 25, 2004. Hey again guys. Sorry for the lack of posting - I've been off packing spheres and thinking about computing cohomology. But I'm back now. So does anybody have a good, value-neutral definition? Is there one that doesn't inherently tie into a theory of legal interpretation? Posted by Dennis at 11:02 AM. Sunday, August 15, 2004.

http://dbfclark.blogspot.com/2005/06/math-post-third-groups-and-axioms.html
Sunday, June 05, 2005. Math Post the Third: Groups and Axioms. At last, I'm able to tackle my actual topic of interest: group theory. Groups are one of the simplest (not easiest) algebraic structures around, but in spite of the ease of giving an axiomatic definition, I'm going to start with examples before we start; it'll make things much easier. So, a group is a set, say G, with a multiplication, written here by juxtaposition of elements, which has:. It shouldn't take more than a few minutes of thought,...
