Fire and Ice - More ruler practice

Fire and Ice
Robert Frost, 1920

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

JABBERWOCKY

Lewis Carroll

(from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

SMART Fix

We spoke over the phone regarding issues you did have with SMART Software. Namely that of SMART Notebook™ crashing (Error Processing Program Settings) and with issues where the Pen Tool turns into the Mouse Cursor Tool and grabs hold of the last continuous Pen Tool annotation.

I have included instructions below that should rectify such issues:

1.     Use the removal tool found at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/6400303/Cleanup%20Tools/MAC/CleanUp_Script_Mac.zip.  This removal tool involves using a shell script (run in Terminal) to remove any and all traces of SMART Software (please let me know if you have tried this already).  This removal tool package contains Readme instructions for carrying this out.  You would also need to remove any com.smarttech.* plists residing under/Users/<specificUserAccount>/Library/Preferences as the shell script unfortunately does not remove them.  To remove these plists you will need to do the following:

a.     Open Terminal (under /Applications/Utilities/Terminal) if not already opened as part of step 1

b.    Enter the command sudo su and press the Return key if not already done so in step 1

c.     Use the command cd /Users/<specificUserAccount>/Library/Preferences and press the Return key

d.    Use the command rm com.smarttech.* and press the Return keyT

Then you will need to install the newest version of software from http://www.smarttech.com/Support/Browse+Support/Download+Long+and+Short+Form?download=EducationSoftwareInstaller2012SP1Mac

Computer Hardware

Your computer needs storage.

Onto your blank storage, you would first need to install some stuff for your computer to run off of it.

  1. First you would need to install an operating system on your storage.
  2. Next, you would log in to the newly-installed operating system and install some application programs (apps for short).
  3. You can now use your apps to open and save documents, images, videos and other files.

Next time the 5th grade willlearn a bit about how a CPU works, the system bus and RAM.
