There students have been up half the night-maybe all night-finishing problem sets and preparing for their midterm exams. Four courses in science and engineering each term is a heavy workload for anyone; very few students fail to learn, first and foremost, the discipline of intensive and constant work. Lesson Two: You learn what you don't know you are learning. Students join forces on the problem sets, and some students benefit more than others from these weekly collective efforts. Lesson Three: By and large, "knowing how" matters more than "knowing what." To be sure, the content of "knowing what" courses if often the most memorable.

Facebook to Make Credits Mandatory for All Onsite Gaming Facebook's virtual currency, Facebook Credits, will become the official coin of the realm beginning July 1, 2011. On that day, all social game developers on the Facebook platform will be required to process payments through Facebook Credits.

Between now and July, Facebook will be working with developers to ensure that every Facebook social game is using Credits, to help developers improve their revenues and to tweak the product to give users the best possible experience.

Burn Fat Without Losing Weight Burn Fat Without Losing Weight Getting a lean and toned body requires burning more fat, simply put. But how do you burn more fat without losing muscle weight? After packing on the muscle at the gym, preserving your weight can be a challenge if you’re also trying to tone up. This goal is often referred to as “cutting,” which involves increasing muscle definition by shedding excess fat after building muscle. When it comes down to it, it’s all about balance. But don’t put all your weight training efforts to waste. Burn Fat Without Losing Weight – Tips Increase the Reps: By periodically dropping the amount of weight you’re lifting and increasing your reps, you’ll shift your focus from bulking up to building lean muscle mass. Toning bands can be a great option for toning up and maintaining lean muscle mass.
