FREE YARD SALE!!!!!

I am in the process of going through 12 + years of books - some of them educational, some of them fiction, both children's and adult.  I was going to bring them to school and simply let anyone who wants to go through them to pick out what they want before I take them to Good Will.  However, there are SO many books, it would take up the entire DA room.  Therefore, I have decided to have a "free yard sale" at my house on Thursday, November 10.  If you are interested, please stop by anytime between 10 a.m and 2 p.m. I also have a few other things I am giving away that my kids no longer use (i.e. a youth lacrosse stick, a gaming chair, a diablo, etc...).  I also have a printer that we no longer use. I may by that time also have some bookcases that I'll be giving away.  One final item I have is a HUGE file cabinet 42.5" wide x 18" deep x 66" tall....it is a very sturdy, office grade file cabinet. However, it is extremely heavy.  If you can haul it, it is yours.  Simply let me know when you'd like to pick it up.

My address is 1414 Bellona Ave.

looking for a treadmill

Our treadmill broke down this summer and I'm looking for a new one.  Does anyone have one to sell?  If so, please send me an email at avapaul@gmail.com.  We want to buy one in reasonably good condition - it has to be up to regular, long use.

Free Lecture: How to Memorize Numbers

The Teaching Company is a provider of high school and college level lectures covering a multitude of subjects.  Here's a link they recently provided for a free lecture on how to memorize numbers.

Here's part of the write up that came with the link:

Memorizing and quickly recalling strings of digits such as your credit card number, a colleague's phone number, or a relative's birthday is an important skill to have in everyday life. Yet despite the fact that, on average, we can memorize only an estimated 7 digits at a time, it's possible to strengthen this ability to memorize strings of digits longer than you ever imagined. The secret: two specific methods that are surprising in their accessibility—and their fun. In thanks for being our customer, here is a free video lecture: How to Memorize Numbers, delivered by Professor Arthur T. Benjamin.

Dr. Benjamin is Professor of Mathematics at Harvey Mudd College, where he has taught for more than 20 years. Renowned for his dynamic teaching style, he has been repeatedly honored with awards from the Mathematical Association of America. Professor Benjamin has also been featured in Scientific American, The New York Times, and Reader's Digest—which named him "America's Best Math Whiz."
