Ah, well, wouldn't hurt to check your credit report and see if anyone tried applying for a card in your name recently. In the states companies like experian will be able to see if your Social Security Number has been looked up recently for a credit application.
Generally, if that isn't the case, they'd only have the CC# which is nbd. Inconvenient, but nbd.

Does anyone know how to rearrange the order of Facebook videos on your profile's video sidebar? I'm posting new videos that I want to show up first on my sidebar, but they seem to arbitrarily be ordered (they don't appear in the order in which they were uploaded) and I want the new videos to appear as the first 4 of the 9 videos that are visible on my page.
The only way I can think of to ensure that all 4 videos appear first is if I literally delete all my other videos, but that's obviously not what I want to do. Even if I take down old videos and then reupload them afterwards, there's still no discernible order.
All that Google got me was complaints from 5 years ago about how it's impossible to rearrange Facebook videos x.x

Where is the best place to brag about how humble you are?
So far, Moses in the Bible has the best humble brag I know about when he wrote:
Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth (Numbers 12:3)
Anyone know better ones?

It's lame if he isn't the one bragging (unless you consider Moses wrote the first few books).
This one comes to mind (Achile Talon):
![[image loading]](http://www.achilletalon.fr/index_htm_files/51.jpg)
He just won the modesty award for most humble. Translates as: " I won ! I won the modesty contest ! I'm the most modest ! I'm the best !"
So I guess the best place to brag is at an humble man contest.
(bit late to get a spot to do it in the bible nowadays)

Do you think browsin 4chan's /b/ on the wi-fi the university provides to students' houses might bring me any problems?

Never did me in 2008, but might want to double check your Uni's web usage policy just in case.

I know it is against porn/downloading music/films/etc, but I'm unsure how they would consider /b/, since it's everything xD

I have a project I'm working on where I'll be using some very elastic cables, and I'm coming to teamliquid to see if anyone would have any idea of whether any material that I'm describing exists, and if so, where I could find it:
1) I need a cable that be roughly 1 meter in length when under a tension of 200N
2) I'd like this cable to be able to stretch to 1.4-1.5 meters (more is better obviously), while having a minimal increase in tension from that 200N, so ideally, 400N or less when stretched to that 1.4-1.5 meters in length. Original length of the cable doesn't matter, I simply need it to undergo non-linear elastic deformation from 1 meter to 1.4-1.5 meters to allow a minimal increase in force.
3) Experience minimal creep and fatigue. I'd like it to handle 10,000 cycles of lengthening before properties begin to significantly deteriorate. Each time it's lengthened, it'll be lengthened for roughly 30-60 seconds, at other times, it'll be stretched to 50-100N.
4) Function in an external temperature range of -40C to 40C (as well as weather effects like rain,snow, and sunlight). Of course, due to the hysteresis of the cable, the cable will heat up when being stretched, being able to function at a temperature a bit higher than 40C is needed. The cable will be stretched by the 40-50cm in 0.5-3 seconds.
5) When stretched to 200N, a maximum cross-sectional area of 1cm x 1cm. Ideal would be 0.5cm x 0.5cm (or less), though 0.5cm x 1 cm would be quite good and workable also.
6) Cost of <$100/meter.
I've purchased some cheap rubber cables from Canadian tire, and since it's the holidays, I've obtained some stress-strain curves using my lat pull-down machine. This cable had dimensions of 0.75x1.5cm, and the most I feel comfortable loading it with is roughly 65-80lbs, so 290N-355N. I was able to obtain an elongation of 40% from the starting point of 89N and bringing it to 268N. So this isn't awful, but I'd like the force to not increase so rapidly with elongation. Compared to this material, it'd like the initial tension to be greater, but elongated tension to not be as high (hence why the current magic number is 200N tension, and with 40% elongation, 400N).
I've looked through some resistance bands for strength training as well. Lifeline appears to have the strongest resistance bands, the maximum performance obtainable with the thickest one would be: 150N, and with 45%~ elongation, 223N. This is actually quite nice, but I worry how their testing was done (if you repeated the experiment, would you get identical values? Since creep, etc)... And more importantly, the thing is 3.5x4.7cm thick.
Anyway, any recommendations or suggestions are very appreciated.

No porn policy? GL enforcing that one at a college.

Isn't the goal of these policies to protect the Uni in case a student takes part in illegal porn activities, rather than to effectively prevent the students from having access to porn?

Normally the internet policies are "don't do anything illegal", or something to that effect, which should provide the same protection. Don't think I've heard of any ISP that excludes legal porn (in Sweden).
They exclude that kind of things from work connection usually, but then they also block all kinds of things, like any torrents (bandwidth), facebook, skype (work you lazy bums!!), etc.
