The Tenth Dimension

Alex Seifert — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 03:09:28 +0000

A friend pointed out to me a very interesting video that describes the ten dimensions in an easy to understand way using dots, lines and a method that shows you just how each dimension stacks on top of the other. As the same friend pointed out, it’s really quite strange that we only see things [...]

New Songs and a Teaching Grant

Alex Seifert — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 00:43:43 +0000

The past couple of days have been rather productive. I’ve managed to write two new songs in relatively short order which means the new album now has nine completed songs. There are still a couple more on the way, but I just haven’t quite gotten around to finishing them yet. I will do that soon [...]

Germany exits recession without frivolous government spending

Alex Seifert — Thu, 13 Aug 2009 23:27:35 +0000

The BBC is reporting that Germany is exiting the recession that has affected the entire world for the past couple of years. Germany, along with France, is one of the first countries to emerge from this economic downturn and yet the German government did next to nothing to try to pull the country out of [...]

Your Computer Belongs to the Federal Government Now

Alex Seifert — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 19:47:26 +0000

Apparently the Federal Government now allows itself to legally steal your computer and make it its own property for the use of domestic or foreign interests. This is all sorts of messed up. I found the video at another blog called Tom’s Place. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fblog.alexseifert.com%2F2009%2F08%2F02%2Fyour-computer-belongs-to-the-federal-government-now%2F'; addthis_title = 'Your+Computer+Belongs+to+the+Federal+Government+Now'; [...]

Amazing Song

This is an amazing song. It’s called Sandmann and it’s by a German band called Oomph!. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fblog.alexseifert.com%2F2009%2F07%2F31%2Famazing-song%2F'; addthis_title = 'Amazing+Song'; addthis_pub = '';

The Death of Handwriting?

Alex Seifert — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 04:01:19 +0000

I’ve often thought that it is really too bad that the art of handwriting has been slowly disappearing in the past couple of decades. Those born into my generation (1980’s or later) generally have handwriting comparable to an elementary school child’s and there does not seem to be any hope that it will improve. With [...]

I need help!

Alex Seifert — Sat, 25 Jul 2009 05:47:42 +0000

I have two semesters left before I graduate from college. That means I will be finished in May 2010. Afterwards I want to teach English or American history somewhere in Germany, but I don’t know how I can go about getting that kind of position. I want to be in Germany for at least two [...]

It’s been a while

Alex Seifert — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 22:35:24 +0000

I know it’s been a while since I’ve actually posted anything on here. That’s because I’ve had a friend out from overseas and have been quite busy. Now that she has left, I should have a lot more time to post entries. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fblog.alexseifert.com%2F2009%2F07%2F23%2Fits-been-a-while%2F'; addthis_title = 'It%26%238217%3Bs+been+a+while'; [...]

Random Tidbits

Alex Seifert — Sun, 28 Jun 2009 21:01:56 +0000

So it looks like I will probably not be writing much on here for the next few weeks or so. A friend of mine is coming out from overseas and we’re going to be quite busy traveling around and doing things. Eventually I will make another post though. Also, it’s really sad that the USA lost [...]
