Another Bitch podcast ready for your aural consumption!

Plus, music by Brooklyn duo Buke and Gass, whose debut full-length album Riposte is due out September 14th from Brassland records. Stream it below, subscribe on iTunes or RSS, or download it! Podcast script and links after the jump!
Transcript (PDF)
It's the latest episode of Bitchcast! Taking cues from Issue 46, the podcast includes an interview with a feminist blogger who's wise but not old, an interview with members of the Meerkat Media Collective about their recent documentary where generations collide, an excerpt from the Old issue of Bitch, and a chat with one of the 90s biggest stars.

Heather Morris's Teen Nick HALO Outfit: Love It or Burn It? (PHOTO)
We know how you're feeling right now, Heather Morris (Brittany S. Pierce). In one word? Awkward. We know, because when we see this grayish purple jumpsuit and those shoes that maybe used to be a satchel, we feel you. We can picture what went on in your mind before you threw on this outfit:
You had a really pretty dress picked out to wear to the Teen Nick HALO Awards and then RIGHT when you were getting out of your VW to walk the red carpet, you saw that total B from that one show (we won't name names) in the EXACT SAME THING. So, you cut the lining out of your jacket, wrapped it around yourself, used a green bungee cord to keep it together, and then thought "hey, at least I have this festive pink boa in my trunk to divert attention from the fact that I wore these same shoes to the Glee 3D premiere last year."
We feel you, HeMo. But that doesn't make it any less awkward for both of us.

Color me skeptical.
Firstly, would Apple really build a 4k tv without a 4k content distribution strategy? Absolutely not. And as of yet, there is really no technologically viable 4k content distribution strategy that the average joe would have any interest in. As Rene always says, Apple is in the business of empowering average consumers with pro features. I really don't think the technology is there yet to deliver these kind of features in a way that the average consumer would appreciate.
Secondly, ould Apple really go to market with a 4k panel that is only going to be priced within the grasps of the wealthy? I mean, Apple isn't known for pushing the envelopes of affordability but they are a preeminent example of smart pricing structures aimed at the mass market. Due to cost prohibitions and also social conditioning (80 inch + TV's are massive-not sure everybody is ready for that in their living rooms), I'm not even sure there will be a market for 4k TV's for a few years. It's tough for me to see apple being the one to try and birth that market.

Sig Christenson: Getting a shot at one last war
Take a look at Scott Westervelt and you wonder how he wound up here in Iraq, in a shabby, besieged building in the middle of Ramadi — a place that would scare the Bloods and Crips. Westervelt is tall with a slight paunch. His hair is white. No one else here has white hair. At […] [Read More]
Sig Christenson: 'I can't wait to get back to you, love'
You know how nosy reporters are, but this time it wasn't my fault. I swear it. I was minding my own business in the small computer room that is home to two dozen Marines with 3rd Civil Affairs Group Governance Support Team, Detachment 4, in Ramadi. Actually, I was waiting for the world's most sluggish […] [Read More]
A slice of San Antonio in Iraq
It's funny how you can travel halfway around the world and still feel at home, even in a place as strange and unforgiving as Iraq. Perhaps it seems stranger still that it can happen in a gun truck with the call sign "Alamo." But that's what happened last night. Photographer Nicole Fruge and I hopped […] [Read More]
Scott Huddleston: Disabled vet shooting for more than title
You might think Rose Weidner would be celebrating this weekend after shooting her way to a national title in air rifle shooting for the disabled. But right about now, the 44-year-old, reared on San Antonio's South Side, could well be napping in her rambling one-story house. After winning six of 13 meets she competed in […] [Read More]
Sig Christenson: Crossing Checkpoint 295
The briefing early Thursday in Ramadi wasn't reassuring. Overnight, a team of Marines found an improvised explosive device on Checkpoint 295. This would be good news, except for one thing: the team found this roadside bomb hours earlier and no one has since swept that crucial section of Ramadi. Marines atop the city's government center […] [Read More]
Sig Christenson: Rhythm of Ramadi
Staff Sgt. Dion Zamora trudges into the Sons of Al Anbar Cafe, opens the refrigerator and then leaves. He doesn't speak, maybe because it's midnight here in Ramadi. "Sometimes you come in here and you're so bored," Sgt. Michael Atkins observes as Zamora, 38, of Phoenix, Ariz., fades around a corner. "You're not hungry." It […] [Read More]
Sig Christenson: Another 'complex attack'
The cackle of gunfire came out of the blue. Pop-pop-pop-pop-pop. It sounded like firecrackers outside the window of Ramadi's government center complex but, of course, what we were hearing was Russian-made 7.62mm ammunition making contact with the walls of our building. "That's AK-47 fire," Marine Sgt. John Stedman observed, his voice serene. Neither Stedman nor […] [Read More]
Scott Huddleston: Deaths force us to ponder 'hometown of record'
Where are you from? It seems like an easy question. But the answers aren't always easy when there's a soldier killed in military service. Such was the case last week, when the Defense Department announced the death of Staff Sgt. Michael Chadwick Lloyd, 24, killed by a roadside bomb south of Baghdad on Saturday, Aug. […] [Read More]
Sig Christenson: The hot war in Anbar
Talk about hot air. It comes through the gunner's windows of a Marine Corps helicopter like a blow drier set on hot — and high. Below us is sandy Anbar, a slice of western Iraq on the Syrian border that could be the setting for a scene right out of "Lawrence of Arabia," complete with […] [Read More]
Scott Huddleston: Tears revealed best part of readers
One woman "cried and cried" while reading Sunday's article about Lance Graham, a San Antonio Marine killed the night of May 7, 2005 in Iraq. She cut out the article, with the headline "Death Letter Is About Life," folded it and put it in a small wooden box with her other "treasures." Her tears, and […] [Read More]

'Teen Mom' Star Gary Shirley Defends Daughter Leah's Twitter Account
Teen Mom star Gary Shirley has come under fire recently for creating a Twitter account for his 2-year-old daughter Leah.
"You guys, it should be obvious that Leah has no contact with Twitter," Shirley writes. "This is just a fun concept that will in no way affect Leah herself.
"You actually think she'll read tweets?" he continues. "No! It's a fun thing for us to post pics and tweets. It's not actually her."
But why is Gary coming under such fire when other celebrity kids like Tori Spelling's 4-year-old son, Liam, has one as well? Is it a double standard or is there merit to the backlash?

After problems with migrated installs, found posting saying problem fixed with clean install so uninstalled and started clean, no joy. Updated to build 1206 and reverified router, windows firewall etc... WINXP will not connect to WINXP hosts. After long delay .... recieve "Communication Error" "Unable to attach to specified device". Have unchecked prompt to confirm connection and prompt allow? what ever it is, no joy.
All running Norton ANtivirus (current program and updates) with windows firewall exceptions for pcanywhere exes. Router port forwards are good. Can connect from WIN7 to WIN7 hosts running NIS. Anyone have it working with WINXP to WINXP, Norton Antivirus config? Had tried disabling antivirus and firewall on version prior to last update.
Do I need to get the Solution version? It's not a version upgrade so why does support only give me the 12.5.5 version download?

Hi tech2013,
I believe you would have configured the remote and host file as directed in the below article's,
Make sure that you have the same built number in both remote and the host computer.
1. Are they are in same network or in different network?
2.Are you able to ping the computers?
3.Check with the PCAnywhere host service whether it is running in services (Run box - type "services.msc")
4. different network - we have to check with both the remote and host computer's router page to enable the ports 5631 & 5632.
Let us know the status

Red Lentil Fusilli with a Zippy Vegan Rose Sauce
It wasn't until I became a vegan that I started worrying about the nutritional content of my food. I had no idea how many calories I should eat, how much protein I should consume or how to create a balanced meal.
Now I know better. I aim to create meals that are properly nutritionally balanced, aiming for more than 50g/d. Knowing that my major sources of protein are from beans, leafy greens, whole grains and a smaller amount from nuts and seeds, a meal feels incomplete without them. Where are my beans?? Where are my vegetables?
So you may be scratching your head, wondering why the heck I would post a recipe for pasta with a rose sauce, the seemingly antithesis of what I eat on a daily basis. However, this dish is packed with all good things.
First, the sauce is a zippy tomato-based creamy vegan rose sauce. All of the vegetables are roasted to create a lovely, creamy backdrop: roasted cherry tomatoes, roasted cauliflower, roasted garlic and roasted shallots. I sprinkled Aleppo chili flakes overtop to add a nice zip to the sauce. The cheesiness of a standard rose sauce is achieved with nutritional yeast, without being overpowering and cashew butter as a thickener. Throw it into your blender for an easy, delicious sauce.
But what to pair it with?
I recently picked up a package of red lentil pasta. Beans hidden in pasta form! Made by Eco Chefs, the only ingredients are red lentils and water and thus pack a nice amount of protein compared to other pastas. While I often use zucchini as a pasta substitute, it was nice to be able to have fusilli-shaped pasta. My spiralizer can't do that to any zucchini. ;)
Next time, I may try blending in white beans, like in my High-Protein Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Alfredo Pasta or add in more greens.
This is my submission to this month's Bookmarked Recipes.
Red Lentil and Spinach Curry (Vegan Tikka Masala)
Winter has arrived. Or least poked its head up. It was frigid as I biked to work on Friday. Cold and windy, a terrible combination. No snow at that time, but -11C with the windshield (12F for my American readers). Snow came later.
It is supposed to warm up again this week, although the city already dropped down the salt. Snow and more importantly, the salt, is what causes me to pack up my bike for the season. I was hoping to break 13,000km on my bicycle odometer this year. My goal used to be 12,000km but I surpassed that last month. I am 300km short of my goal. With a 20km daily commute, that would only take me 3 more weeks, basically right before Christmas holidays. The odometer has been ticking since I bought my commuter bike in October 2009. It followed me as I cycled to Cornwall, Niagara Falls and Kingston. Averaging over 4000km each year, it seems more impressive than it entails. This year, Rob and I did very little recreational cycling. My distance is purely based on a longer commute. It is amazing how quickly the extra distance can add up.
I will have to see how much rain we get before I decide how to get to work on Monday. Bike or transit?
In addition to the cold, one of the things I do not like about the winter is the limited amount of fresh vegetables. In the summer, everything is at my fingertips. Cheap local produce at its peak. Now I am not as excited by the grocery flyers… veggies rarely make it to the sales page. I try to capitalize on anything veggie-like on sale. Mushrooms, greens, broccoli, carrots, anything.
This week spinach and red lentils were on sale. 4lbs of red lentils for $1.27. 3 bunches of spinach for $2 (last week it was 2 bunches of spinach for $1). What amused me most was seeing how many people were buying the spinach. So many people! The grocers kept wheeling in more spinach. Big bunches, too. Spinach for the win!
When Ella posted her Red Lentils and Spinach in a Masala Sauce, I knew it was destiny. Destined to be my dinner. Turns out it was also my parents' lunch when they came to visit last weekend. A last minute change of plans had them staying for lunch. Thankfully I had something that everyone could enjoy.
I made my own curry paste with toasted cumin and coriander seeds and combined it with ginger, cilantro, smoked paprika and garam masala. Tomato paste and pureed tomatoes made this a bit more complex and the cashew butter a more luscious body. Red lentils cook down into a mush and the spinach added a healthy bulk. A nice, solid curry. Tikka masala without the tikka? Probably not… this isn't a super creamy sauce. Cashew butter can only accomplish so much! Next time, I might add in tempeh, like Rob did with his Tempeh Tikka Masala.
What are your favourite vegetables in the winter?
PS. Is tomato paste always so sweet? I licked some from the can and it was so sweet! My can is definitely no sweetener added, so I wonder if it is a side effect from my sweetener-free challenge.
This is my submission to this month's My Legume Love Affair, hosted by Sukanya, to Deb for this week's Souper Sundays and to this month's Bookmarked Recipes.

Photo by Jeremy Powers, of Easthampton, Mass., won the elite men's U.S. cyclocross national championship title on Sunday in Madison, Wisc., after attacking his rivals late in the race. (Wil Matthews)
If there were surprises they were delivered in the men's race by the Rapha-Focus riders Jeremy Powers—who's had miserable luck at nationals in years past—and his teammate Zach McDonald. Powers broke clear late from a select group of riders to take his first stars-and-stripes jersey.
"It's the biggest win of my life," an emotional Powers said. "It's been such a long time coming. I'm so happy.
"So many people put so much effort into me. I don't know—I'm on top of the world. There aren't words to describe how I feel right now."
McDonald, who won the U-23 title Saturday, fought back hard from an early crash to take fourth place behind Jonathan Page (Planet Bike) and Ryan Trebon (LTS–Felt), who finished third and second, respectively.
There was also surprise weather: Race organizers—as well as the riders and fans—expected snow and ice in Madison come January, but what they got was unseasonably warm temperatures: 45 and sunny.
The start of the women's race, with Meredith Miller leading. (Wil Matthews)
The Compton show
The lone favorite coming into the elite women's race, Katie Compton, who rides for the Dutch Rabobank team, put on a masterful display of power and fine bike-handling skills to distance herself almost right from the whistle.
She went on to race solo for the entire hour, effectively making the competition two overlapping events: the familiar Katie Compton Show and the race for second.
Behind, Meredith Miller (California–Giant Berry), who started out strong in second, crashed on the first lap. By the time she got going again, Katie Antonneau and Nicole Duke, who both ride for the Cyclocrossworld–Cannondale team, rode mostly together to build a lead on the rest of the field, yet they remained well behind the race leader.
Antonneau finished in second place, nearly two minutes down on winner Compton, who's Antonneau coach. Duke took third.
Katie Compton, of Colorado Springs, Colo., won her eighth straight national title. (Wil Matthews)
Powers finally gets it right
While no one doubted that Compton would win the women's race, there were at least four serious contenders in the men's finale: Jonathan Page and Ryan Trebon topped that list, with Jeremy Powers and Tim Johnson (Cyclocrossworld–Cannondale) close behind.
But Powers, the winningest rider in the U.S. this season, faced a couple of challenges coming into Sunday. He'd been well beaten twice the previous week by Trebon, who'd returned to competition after suffering an injury. That alone seemed to suggest Powers' form might be waning. Second, and more important, Powers had always had bad luck at nationals, notably last year when he crashed while leading late in the race.
This time around, persistence paid off and things worked out just about perfectly for the Easthampton, Mass., native. For one, his young teammate Zach McDonald joined him in the select group with Page, Trebon, and Johnson. Once there, McDonald played a support role, helping Powers to disrupt the tactics of their rivals.
In addition, Powers made no big mistakes, and he had no bad luck as in previous years.

Psychoneuroendocrinology, 05/29/2012
Two sources of differences of hypothalamo–pituitary–adrenocortical axis functioning are implied, both only indirectly connected to post–traumatic stress disorder. It seems that basal cortisol secretion is associated more tightly with personality, while the regulation by glucocorticoid receptor system is sensitized by repeated traumatic situations.

Comments about Miss Me Women's Imperial White Border Boot Cut Jeans:
I saw this jean on several people at NFR in Vegas this past weekend. Including myself. Everyone looked great in them. I love them because sometimes I don't want all the detail and sparkle and bling that Miss Me Jeans are known for. I dress them down or up with a blinged out Nocona Belt and cowgirl boots. They are very comfortable and the pockets are very flattering. They don't stretch out as much as some other miss me jeans so you can wear them several times without washing. Just get them, you know you want to.

Social media seems like a natural fit for the scientific community. Science is, after all, about the sharing of information, and scientists often collaborate with each other in their work. Nevertheless, despite several different efforts, no platform yet has become the social media platform for the scientific community.
Dr. Ijad Madisch intends to be the man who puts that platform into place. He's the CEO and co-founder of ResearchGate, a social network intended to be a way for scientists to come together and collaborate so that they can save time and effort by sharing their experiences and techniques to solve problems.
Even more importantly, says Madisch, they can find out what doesn't work so they can look for alternative solutions or techniques. "The problem is that in journals, scientists only publish positive results – not negative ones."
The site was founded in 2008, but really began to take off with its first series of funding in the Fall of 2010. At that time, the site had about 500,000 users. In February, the company completed their second series of funding, which was led by support from the Founders Fund. As of this writing, the site has grown to include over 1.4 million more members, making it one of the biggest social media networks catering specifically to scientists.
But why do scientists need to use social media in the first place? Madisch cites three reasons they should, and in particular, three reasons he think scientists should use ResearchGate. First, he says, it lets you build your own profile within your field by posting your publications and research. If you publish, it gives you the opportunity to share datasets that weren't in the final journal version. Second, it allows you to engage in discussion with other scientists if you're looking for advice or suggestions on a particular topic. Finally, it allows you to keep up with the work in your field by following current publications in a more focused way.
"Ultimately," he says. "I want to make science more open."
The site has made some impressive strides since it began, and visiting it does show some very active discussions. Still, for a site with as many users as it has, it didn't seem like a lot of them were active. So I asked a few users of the site what their general impressions were.
"ResearchGate suffers from similar ailments as most of the many 'Facebook for scientists'," says Dr. Björn Brembs. "In that there is little incentive for researchers to visit it, as the ratio of input (time) to output (information) is just not very favorable."
Christie Wilcox, a PhD student and blogger for Scientific American, had a similar opinion. "Honestly, I think ResearchGate is a good idea, but I have yet to see it reach its potential and thus I don't find it all that useful."
Neuroscientist Bradley Voytek was more enthusiastic, though he was still cautious. "ResearchGate has not yet become a 'checked daily' site for me, but it does have many useful tools. It's nice to see updates from colleagues about new papers published, for example."
"ResearchGate has its work cut out for them," Voytek added. That's because, in his opinion, "researchers are quite conservative when it comes to adopting new technologies because time and attention are scarce commodities". Additionally, he says that, "They need to figure out how to get older, more experienced scientists to use their service. That's a difficult task."
For his part, Madisch isn't afraid of the work, or the feedback. "Feedback from the community is what's shaping this project. We're always trying to get feedback and it's always a huge influence on what we're doing."
As for gaining traction in the community, Madisch is optimistic. "Our focus now is actually on attracting younger members, who seem to be more apt to use the network. That said, we're finding that older generations of researchers are increasingly starting to sign up. In a related story, when I first started working on the launch of ResearchGate, my German professor at the time – a 62-year-old distinguished academic who has published more than a thousand papers – did not endorse my working on ResearchGate while I was doing research. (I went to Harvard to continue my work and launching ResearchGate where my professor there was fully okay with my doing both.) I found out a couple of months ago that my German professor has signed up to become a ResearchGate user."
In addition to building a larger user base, Madisch has another big plan for ResearchGate that the company intends to work on after obtaining its latest round of funding. That's building ResearchGate into a way to build a scientist's reputation outside of the traditional world of journal publication.
"I think that if you haven't published, you can still have lots of knowledge in your field, and institutions should honor that, but they need a way to prove it," explains Madisch. "Scientists are publishing stuff on their ResearchGate profiles, helping other scientists, and earning a reputation. That reputation will be reflected within the system."
ResearchGate will also be looking into ways to monetize its platform. The "no-brainer" way to do that, in Madisch's words, is to provide job boards for scientists looking for jobs. Universities and companies would pay the site to place listings. The company is also looking for ways to partner with other companies that manufacture and sell biotech lab equipment, as well as several other different programs.
Gaining traction among scientists to be the social media platform will still take a lot of time and effort from ResearchGate. But Madisch is confident that the company will succeed.
"In the beginning, everyone told me that I was crazy. This changed as more people started using it and the media started talking about it. Several scientific breakthroughs have been achieved because of work at ResearchGate. We can continue to achieve breakthroughs in science if people are talking to each other."

Pack up, the end of the World is tomorrow.
It's that time of the decade (there really aren't consistent intervals, but you get the idea) when people in tune with the cosmic secrets of religion tell the rest of us how the end of the World is nigh. This time it's Harold Camping who once again (he predicted a similar event in 1994) is letting us know that the second coming of Christ is upon us (for the second time since 1994–that was apparently a false alarm). And the date on which the end of the World will commence is said to be May 21st, 2011. That's right, tomorrow.
The prediction states that the second coming will be accompanied by a massive earthquake 6:00 p.m.-ish. The whole world will be shaking so don't think you can just fly to some remote place and be saved. But I guess if you are in an airplane when the event happens you'll be spared a shake.
So, I guess this will be my last post, which I am sure is a relief for those of you who hate what I write but have no choice but to come back day-after-day and read my blog entries. Finally you'll be free of my satanic hold on you.

Press Release
Asia Pacific 2013 Thailand Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study
New-Vehicle Appeal in Thailand Declines, Driven Most by Dissatisfaction With Audio/ Entertainment/ Navigation Systems
BANGKOK: 20 December 2013 -- Overall new-vehicle appeal in Thailand decreased in 2013, driven primarily by a significant decline in customer satisfaction with audio/ entertainment/ navigation systems, according to the J.D. Power Asia Pacific 2013 Thailand Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) StudySM released today.
"Audio/ entertainment/ navigation is now among the top three most critical vehicle components across segments," said Loic Pean, senior manager at J.D. Power Asia Pacific. "While vehicle exterior remains the most critical component to customer satisfaction with new-vehicle appeal in Thailand, owners of entry level models notably do not seem ready to compromise on sound quality (e.g. rear speakers) and audio features, such as multi-format playback compatibility (MP3, USB, iPod, etc.) and expect these to be standard options, regardless of the vehicle price."
Among the 78 models included in the study, five models from Toyota (Camry Hybrid; Corolla Altis (tie); Fortuner (tie); Hilux Vigo Champ Prerunner Smart Cab; and Hilux Vigo Champ S-Cab) and three models from Honda (Brio Amaze (tie); Civic (tie); and Jazz) rank highest in their respective segments.
The Chevrolet Captiva (tie); Isuzu D-Max Hi-Lander D-Cab; Mitsubishi Mirage (tie); and Suzuki Swift (tie) also rank highest in their respective segments.
The 2013 Thailand APEAL study is based on evaluations from 5,013 owners who purchased their new vehicle between October 2012 and June 2013. The study covers 13 different makes that include 78 different passenger car, pickup truck and utility vehicle models. The study was fielded between April and August 2013.
J.D. Power Asia Pacific has offices in Tokyo, Singapore, Beijing, Shanghai and Bangkok that conduct customer satisfaction research and provide performance analytics services in the automotive, information technology and finance industries. Together, the five offices bring the language of customer satisfaction to consumers and businesses in Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) - International outrage isn't expected to stop a New Mexico gun shop owner's planned two-day coyote hunting contest this weekend.
An online petition against the hunt has generated tens of thousands of signatures worldwide and one protester has even vowed to dress like a coyote to trick hunters into accidentally killing a human.
The FBI is even investigating a death threat against Gunhawk Firearms owner Mark Chavez, who is sponsoring the hunt.
Chavez says despite two weeks of angry calls and protests, he's "not going to back down."
Under the terms of the contest, teams of one or two hunters have two days to shoot and kill as many coyotes as possible on private land in New Mexico.
The winning team will get its choice of a Browning Maxus 12-gauge shotgun or two AR-15 semi-automatic rifles from the Los Lunas shop.
Chavez says 60 teams have signed up.

One of the glorious things about the internet is that it has made it very practical to share source datasets. Among other things, this means you can reproduce analyses from data that is of historical interest (such as Galileo's observations) or of deep personal interest to you.
The simplest way to start looking for datasets to analyze is to add the term 'dataset' to your query. If you're interested in getting your hands into statistical analysis, search for [ online dataset ] and you'll have more content than you'll know what to do with. For instance:
http://lib.stat.cmu.edu/DASL/ - has datasets and stories about statistical analysis, with nice datasets ranging across a number of topics from archaeology (ancient Egyptian skull development over 4000 years) to nature (acorn size as a function of location), to zoology (wild horse population statistics)
http://exploringdata.net/datasets.htm Draft lottery data, Galileo's experimental data, Old Faithful eruptions, world population statistics…
If I were teaching math and statistics in high school or college, this wealth of data would be a major game-changer. You can demonstrate methods and analyses on tiny, demonstration datasets, and then let the students loose to look at moderately sized (and very interesting) data. With the amount of data content online, every day can be a new science fair!
Let me illustrate this with a story.
It's been raining in Palo Alto a lot recently. And I noticed (for about the thousandth time) that…
Question: The rain in Palo Alto seems to come in pulses, averaging 10 to 15 minutes per pulse, then a period of quiet, then another pulse. Is that true?
Answer: To test this hypothesis, I grabbed two datasets for comparable rainy days in January, 2010.
Seattle data is from:
Palo Alto data is from:
Both weather stations sample rainfall in 5 minute samples.
To find this data, I did a search for [ rainfall data palo alto ] and found that one of the first results points to Wunderground.com, which features links to local weather stations, nearly all of which provide data feeds in a CSV format. It was quick to find a Palo Alto weather station that had the right kind of rainfall data. And from there, it was a simple step to do the same for Seattle. (I did other cities as well, but that's another story.)
So why didn't I search for "dataset"? Because a dataset is usually a curated collection of data; that is, it's been collected, usually cleaned up and ready for use. I chose to search for 'data' because I wanted a raw feed of data from an instrument. The National Weather Service has datasets, but I wanted the data straight from the provider, hence the subtle shift in my query.
I downloaded the CSV data from each of my two cites: Jan 11, 2010 for Seattle, and Jan 19, 2010 for Palo Alto).
I then imported both CSVs into a Google Spreadsheet, and made a moving average of 3 samples (to smooth the curves a bit and get around sampling uncertainties).
The observation is pretty clear: Palo Alto weather tends to come in bursts much more than Seattle weather.
Once it starts raining in Seattle, it tends to keep raining. The stereotype of Seattle rain is true!
By contrast, if it's raining in Palo Alto, you can wait 15 minutes until it clears.
(At least on these two days. For a real test of statistical significance, you'd have to do a bunch more days, testing the average behavior, etc etc. For advanced classes, this is a great way to talk about hypothesis testing, measurements of significance, etc.)
The point remains: As a culture, we now have easy access to more data than ever before. If you search for it, you can often test your own ideas about what's going on—you don't need to wait for the intermediaries to give you their version of the story. Check it out yourself.
Search on!

Charlton defeat was our lowest point, says Bristol City's Richard Foster
Posted: December 13, 2012|
RICHARD Foster believes Bristol City have passed the low point of their season and are now on the way back up.
While many City fans will argue that the recent 4-1 drubbing at the hands of Wolves represented the worst performance seen at Ashton Gate since Cardiff won 6-0 in BS3 in January 2010, Foster prefers to highlight last month's 2-0 defeat to Charlton Athletic as a watershed moment.
At that point on November 11, City had suffered a club-record seven successive defeats and were rock bottom of the npower Championship table. Manager Derek McInnes was coming under fire from frustrated supporters and it was difficult to see where the next win was coming from.
"There comes a point in every season where you have to stop and take stock and that moment for us came after the Charlton game," said right-back Foster.
Related content
"It was arguably our worst performance of the season and, when you get to that stage, you know things cannot get any worse.
"We played terribly, lost to a team that were not that far ahead of us in the league and sat in the dressing room and knew we had reached our lowest point.
"We knew we had to regroup and results and performances since then suggest it was a real turning point."
Although the nature of the defeat to Wolves came as a bolt out of the blue, City have shown a gradual improvement since losing to Charlton, drawing 1-1 with Blackpool to stop the rot and then winning away games against Middlesbrough and Sheffield Wednesday.
"We knuckled down, worked hard and took encouragement from a hard-earned point against Blackpool," said Foster. "We just had to stop the defeats, because seven in a row was not a nice place to be.
"Confidence was low after the Charlton game, but the performance against Blackpool helped and by the time we got to Middlesbrough, we were believing in ourselves again."
City demonstrated admirable strength of character and resolve to twice come from behind against Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough last Saturday.
Foster said: "We have fallen away a bit when we have let in goals previously and we showed great character to bounce back."
City have now taken seven points from their last five games, their best return since August. But it remains to be seen if last Saturday's 3-2 victory at Hillsborough represents a fundamental change in fortunes or just another false dawn.
City face crunch games against Derby County, Ipswich Town, Watford, Peterborough United and Millwall in the next three weeks.

5 lamps for a contemporary living room
When it comes to choosing contemporary living room lamps, you want something that is a blend of functionality with style. Considering compact living spaces these days, it is best to opt for something that complements the overall ambience, without being too claustrophobic. Here are some simple and yet trendy options that you can check out-
1. Lead crystal table lamp
If you want something to go with a neutral living room color, then these crystal lamps are a sensible pick. The versatile lamps like the Pyton series chrome crystal table lamp can be placed on the side table or even near the dining room area. It is trendy and vibrant, but subtle enough for sprucing up your living room décor.
2. Chandelier floor lamp
If space permits, then opt for chandelier floor lamps like this Sebastian floor lamp. It looks best with beige, cream and brown color combinations. The lamp is the perfect solution to adding elegant lighting for rooms that aren't hardwired for an overhead chandelier. The faceted glass jewels drape from five curving candle arms and add sparkle and shine.
3. Geometrical or abstract shapes
These are a suitable pick for compact homes as they don't occupy much space and yet provide ample light. Available in bright neon colors, these look best in living rooms that have contrasting color hues like red and white or black and blue, etc.
4. Asian handcrafted lamps
If your home is inspired by the oriental décor, opt for Asian hand painted or crafted lamps. These look great in colors like red, orange etc. and can be used in almost all kinds of living room settings and colors.
5. Rustic lamps
For living rooms that have duller color tones, these rustic lamps are a great pick. These can be based on animal or farm themes and are appropriate for both contemporary homes and even holiday cabins.

Grand Rapids Community College wants to make it easier for students to earn a business degree from Western Michigan University.
Read more
The state's colleges and universities have not taken all the steps mandated by the Tennessee legislature to make it easier for students to attend lower-cost community colleges and then transfer the credits to the universities, a new performance audit says.
Two schools in Luzerne County have come together to give students a better chance at higher education.
Easy access and low cost have made community colleges the destination of choice for the majority of students seeking a higher education in Texas.
Saginaw Valley State University students studying agriculture and natural resources now have a new opportunity open to them.
At the end of his first year at the Community College of Philadelphia, Christopher Thomas decided that his goal — to go back to school and get a degree — was no longer worth it. He was in debt from thousands of dollars in student loans.
Getting our state university system more closely working together with our technical college system would seem to be a win-win idea for our state and benefit many students who are seeking an education.
Central Texas College has become more aggressive in building partnerships with four-year universities to provide its students with an easier path to higher education beyond the two-year degree.
Audra Page made a penny-wise decision to start her education at a community college before transferring to Texas State University, but her attempt to overcome an expensive higher education system ended up more frustrating than frugal.
When students enroll at Grand Valley State University, they're more likely now than a decade ago to take a class or two at another institution – typically a community college – as they pursue their degree.

"The migration of books to electronic screens has been accelerating with the introduction of mobile reading on iPhones and Amazon's Kindle and the growing power of Google's book search engine. Even the form of books is mutating as innovators experiment with adding video, sound and computer graphics to text. Some scholars fear a loss of literary writing and reading, others of our storehouse of knowledge if it all goes digital." ---from CQ Researcher
CQ Researcher has released a report entitled, Future of the Book. CQ Researcher's reports contain several viewpoints and a great deal of information, so it will be up to YOU to make up your mind----what is the future of the book?

I bought shallots for 5 cents. no kidding.
I was at H-mart giving a tour to my ethnic-grocery-store-shy friend. I felt guilty that I hadn't bought anything and picked up 2 a couple shallots for a quiche I was making this weekend. I went to the register and found out I had only spent 5 cents. I luckilly had a dime. I got change back on...... A DIME. My question is when was the last time you paid less than a dollar for a food item that you were psyched about?

From appearances at the most high-end restaurants to street food carts coast-to-coast, goat meat and dairy products are being embraced across the country as the next big thing. With its excellent flavor, wide-ranging versatility and numerous health benefits, goat meat, milk and cheese are being sought by home cooks. And while goat is the world's primary meat (upwards of 70 percent of the red meat eaten around the world is goat) never before has there been a cookbook on this topic in the United States. Goat is a no-holds-barred goatapedia, laugh-out-loud cooking class, cheesemaking workshop, and dairy-milking expedition all in one. Authors Bruce Weinstein and Mark Scarbrough have brought together recipes such as Pan-Roasted Chops with Blackberries and Sage, Meatballs with Artichokes and Fennel, and Chocolate-Dipped Goat Cheese Balls, making this book the resource for this new frontier.

Developer: Monolith
Publisher: Namco
Platform: Gamecube
Release Date: November 16, 2004
by Tony Ames
The second effort from Monolith, the team behind Xenosaga, has come forth. With that sort of pedigree, one would expect a lengthy epic with sky-high production values. While Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean is hardly perfect, it certainly delivers on those fronts.
Baten Kaitos is, simply put, a gorgeous game. The backgrounds are colorful, imaginative, and vibrant. The characters are fluid and intricately designed. Even battle effects simply ooze style. The three combined form a visual experience that's wholly captivating.
Layered over all that is the soundtrack, which is just beautiful: mellow themes that sweep you in their melodic flow; festive tracks that thrust you into each new town; battle music that sets the tempo of combat wonderfully yet still sounds fantastic. In fact, if not for some troubles with the voice acting, I'd call it the ideal audio setup. In addition to just being lackluster, though hardly bad, on its default setting the voice work had a seemingly intentional distortion. Switching some audio settings (namely, changing from 'stereo' to 'surround') pretty much cut it out, but it still made for an annoying couple of hours.
This could almost be a fair way to sum up the story, as well. While there's a good deal of interesting material, especially matters of history and legends, it takes the game an inordinate amount of time to start revealing and using it. In a fairy-tale world where the land has taken to the skies and oceans, a young man named Kalas seeks vengeance for his fallen grandfather and brother. This quest steadily entangles him in the mission of Xhela, a girl trying to stop a great empire from resurrecting an ancient God. This is a good, if slightly cliché, foundation that the game takes nearly 10 hours to start expanding on. Frankly, I'm not sure the story really justifies that much patience on the part of players.
Fortunately, Baten Kaitos has more than just a story. It features a strangely intuitive battle system built around decks of cards called Magnus. While the decks start with 20 cards comprising various offensive and defensive options, you choose which ones to use from a hand of 3, and may use 2 at a time. This keeps things from getting too unwieldy, although one occasionally gets a bad hand and wastes turns due to lacking attack cards. However, deck size, hand size, and the number of cards you can combo all gradually increase throughout the game, giving the player better control while easing them into the system. The result is a nice balance between being easy to play and engaging.
The game makes a good effort to keep you engaged outside combat, however. Even from the very beginning, large-scale side quests are available and pretty much out in the open. And by large scale, I mean you can accomplish bits and pieces of it in nearly every location, and that completing parts of them often involve smaller quests unto themselves. But that's to be expected from an epic.
All told, Baten Kaitos is worth at least a glance from any Gamecube owner. Just be warned that it will definitely try your patience.
Final Grade: 79%

Amazing! My meat eating husband loved it too! Very tasty, and was easy to make.
It was okay and my family liked it, but I wanted tomatoy classic veggie Lasagna
8 Ratings
This dish is delicious! I added chopped chicken breast, which I cooked with the onions prior to adding the zucchini and mushrooms. I also added chopped green bell peppers. Lastly, I used organic tomato basil pasta sauce instead of the four cheese. It actually turned out well, even with my changes. My husband and son both liked it dish.
It turned out great!!! I loved it!!!
Loved this! Only change I made was I added garlic while sautéing vegis because we love it. Ty for this recipe
It came out delicious! I don't always use Classico but it still comes out great! I add and substitute other veggies such as cauliflower and bell peppers or just whatever vegetables I have on hand. I also add a tad more ricotta to make it more cheesy. This is my favorite kind of Lasagna to make!
I made this recipe for my meat-loving family and they loved it! Very flavorful :)

It has been recently revealed that the Royal Berkshire Hospital closed its three wards for new patients on Monday. However, they are determined to open the wards in next 24 hours. Hospital spokesman Joe Wise said that they have reopened earlier closed wards on Saturday and Monday and would open three wards in next 24 hours.
Wise further affirmed, "Thankfully it is only a small number of people who have been affected and we are anxious to take all possible steps to ensure its effects are minimized". Experts suggested that those who have suffered sickness and diarrhea should try avoiding people and should only go in public places at the time when they get clean chit from their doctors.
Another thing that doctors suggested was that people should follow hygiene policies. They should wash their hands and should eat only home cooked food and should eating junk. Wise said that infection in the hospital has not completely gone. They got to know about it when they spotted new virus case in the hospital on the day when they reopened the ward which was closed due to norovirus.
Wise further affirmed that they follow simple policy and that is they simply close the ward when they see infection cases have increased from more than two. It is the perfect season for norovirus outbreak as the climate is quite dry which is good for breeding season.
Norovirus is also known as winter vomiting bug and has become quite common in winters. The bug is not specific to hospitals and is highly contagious and could easily survive on dirty linen, floors, and could also be found in school and other places meant for public gathering.
In addition, the Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital has also closed its wards due to norovirus outbreak.

Hick Chick [Dance Remixes] (EP)
by Cowboy Troy
Released: May 2007
Label: Raybaw/Wbr
Whale tails? "Dope lyrics"? Drum machines? Cowboy Troy continues to blaze trails with his disarmingly visionary, if occasionally corny, stylistic fusions. Since mainstream country radio can't be convinced to give a damn about Troy, these big-thump remixes of "Hick Chick" seem to return the sentiment -- they're unapologetic party music for the truly urban cowboys and cowgirls. The four negligible variations here are mostly utility tracks for the (country) club DJ, but, even if it never hits FM, Troy's rippin' guitar and booty bass country is sure to boom from a half-ton pickup near you.
