At 0630 this morning, the weather was in the high 60's, but the humidity made it feel warmer. The was a steady breeze and ths sun was out. If I didn't know any better, I'd think we were going to have a tornado.

I got to my polling place before 0800. The line was long but was moving at a fairly rapid pace. I was in line for less than half an hour and that was with the line all the way from deep inside the building, out to the back of a wide parking lot and then a right angle along the side of the much, much longer side of the parking lot.

The closer I got to the building, the more ominous the weather started looking. Thankfully, I made it inside and back out to my car before it started raining.

Based on what i witnessed locally, I think the turn out this election is going to be massive.

Problem Statement

I randomly picked out a topic to cover and present for one of my courses and, because the programs are rather mish-mash, I'm with the last year students (I'm a second year), I'm way out of my depth with the level of the topic. Being able to present a dense 40pg chapter is not my ballpark to be exact... the paper is also not in my native language and the presentation should be 10 minutes... I don't think there's an option to 'change' the topic, but tomorrow when I have lectures I'll ask my prof about approaching the topic. I still thought maybe some of you have advice on how to tackle dense papers/situations like this without getting completely strewn up in it.

My Solution

Give the talk in your native langauge. If the professor tries to fail you for your performance, call him a racist and threaten to sue the school if he does'nt give you an "A".
