Hello,

Recently there have been a few attempts by people to read from a pen drive. If you don't know what one is, don't feel bad, I didn't either until I saw them. Essentially, they are a memory stick that plugs into the back of computer through the USB port. Regretfully, none of the computers in the Library or Ferguson computer lab are able to read from the USB ports.

People need to go to the Crown Center and use machines that are loaded with Windows XP in order to use their pen drives.

Thanks,

Steve

As of this morning the toner on the printer has been shaken.

Hello all,

A bit of a heads up: there is an assignment on the loose that is having people look for articles on sound intensity discrimination in Biosis. The big problem is that we don't have any database called Biosis. To keep things short, the best place to send people to find resources is Medline or Biological Abstracts. They should be able to find articles in any of those. PsychInfo maybe another possibility that I haven't tried. Search for terms such as sound intensity or sound discrimination.

Thanks,

Steve
