You are receiving this email because you currently hold an SFU semesterly parking permit.
In order for students to benefit from the reduction of the sales tax rate that comes into effect April 1, 2013 as a result of the elimination of the HST and replacement by PST, we have decided to delay the renewal process for summer semester parking permits from March 1 to April 1. The tax on permit parking is expected to decrease from 35.52% to 27.05% on April 1 representing a savings of 8.47%."

Yet, for some dumb ass reason and beyond retardness, we still pay what, a 21% Translink tax? Wtf.
We pay translink here, another 5% in our BC Hydro bill and 15c or something for every litter of petrol we buy. Their tickets are ridiculously expensive (just compare with toronto). And they still say they don't have money. Not to mention it's a private company. How did they manage that?
Well I'm just grateful for every improvement Christine Clark has made so far even if it they are just small improvements. Minimum wage rises to $10.25, family day, then tax reduction.
Don't know if you know this, but if you go to superstore, and use your PC mastercard, you save around 20 cents per liter, something like that, don't know the specifics.

My peeve is just Translink and how they managed to crawl up our skins and get money from petrol, bc hydro and SFU parking. And while I can understand somehow (still disagree) the petrol and bc hydro (skytrain?), why on earth we pay 21% tax to translink for our SFU parking passes.
Translink would be better if it was an actual private company :lawl;

Hey guys, my friend Taylor is a SIAT/Beedie student who is unbelievably talented. He's currently in a competition and it would mean the world to him if he wins. Please sign up and vote for him, it'll take a 30 seconds plus an email confirmation.
CMPT peeps. I'm not sure why I can't get this on CourseWrite because I can get it on python...
Spoiler!
These functions descriptions are included here for you to have them separately for reference; however, these descriptions will appear to you directly when working with CodeWrite
1. Function:
def blastoff(n)
Description:
This function receives as an input argument an integer number, which we call n. If the number is not negative, the function should return a string, which will have the number n, followed by two points, then the number (n -1), followed by two points, then the number (n -2), and two points and so on until reaching the number '0', followed by two points. Then the string should end with exactly two exclamation signs ‘!!’ If the number is negative, the function should return two exclamation signs.
An example:
stringNumsPoints(5) should return '5..4..3..2..1..0..!!'
Description:
Given a string (st) and a character (ch) as input, this function should return a new string.
The returned string should have the word ‘No’ if the character is not found in the original
string, neither in lower case nor in upper case. On the other hand, if the character is in the original string, either in lower or upper case, the function should return a string containing the word ‘Yes’, then (with no space in between) three dots ‘…’ and then the new string should have all the positions where the character is in the original string, in reverse order as they are found in the string. The positions should be in the resulting string with one space in between and one space at the end.
For example:
whichPositionsRev('abc!abc!ABC!', '$') should return 'No'
whichPositionsRev('abc!abc!ABC!', 'a') should return 'Yes...8 4 0 ' CMPT 120, Page 2 of 4
3. Function:
def countLetters (st)
Description:This function should count how many letters there are in the input string st, starting to count (including in the count if it is a letter) from position 0 and advancing one position at a time until reaching the end of the string. The string may contain letters, digits and also special characters.
countLetters('12abc!#456') should return 3
countLetters('abc123de') should return 5
An example:
countLetters('12abc!#456') should return 3
Description:
This function should count how many letters there are in the input string st, starting to count from position pos (counting the character in pos if it is a letter) and advancing one position at a time until encountering a digit or until reaching the end of the string. The string may contain letters, digits and also special characters. If pos is not a valid position in the string, the function should return 0.
For example:
countLettersFromPosUntilDigit('12abc!#456',0) should return 0
countLettersFromPosUntilDigit('abc!#456',1) should return 2
countLettersFromPosUntilDigit('123abc',3) should return 3
countLettersFromPosUntilDigit('abc123de',0) should return 3
Hint: you may want to use a for loop and a 'flag variable ', You may also use while loops.
Was wondering how you guys deal with midterms/final exams that start at 8:30 in the morning? Do you pull an all nighter? Or go to bed early like 10pm then get up like 4am ish then read all your notes one last time?

I sleep whenever I happen to fall asleep then wake up an hour before I usually do to do some last minute cramming. works for me.

Sometimes I have to deal with reverse sleeping pattern for a week though
usually an all nighter. BUT if I do pull an all nighter, I try not to sleep cuz after I get a taste of sleep, its tremendously difficult for me to get up and get ready for 8:30 exams.

During my first year, first semester.. I pulled all nighters for Math157 and Econ103.. and lets just say it was a bad idea lol. I was suffering from sleep deprivation and felt really bad.
I usually study till 1-2~ max so I get a good 4~ hours sleep for the exams.
Sometimes I have to deal with reverse sleeping pattern for a week though
I don't get it lol.
on a side note, thanks to everyone for responding. It's interesting to see how everyone studies, but seems like most ppl pull all nighters, myself excluded though. I will go to bed probably around 11 tonight, then get up at 4 study again for my exam tomorrow at 8:30.
Studying... it's all about 30 page papers within 12 hours.

When your defining your functions are you returning it or are you just printing it?

Wake up early to study. Then by midday I get so sleepy I take naps during the day and am fully awake around 2am.

Back during SFU days it would probably be 2 hours sleep the night before an 8:30 exam and wake up like feeling like this
Lmao that face when you get up at 4am is what I'm experiencing right now. Are you the guy near the engineering building exit with the openroad promotion and that Scion FRS outside?
