New Radar Detects Tornadoes Faster

Most people know that my research is part of a experimental weather radar project. There have been some mass-media articles covering the project and I thought I would link them from here:

ABC Evening News on July 25, 2008 There is a video of this story somewhere in someones archive.

Popular Mechanics June 16, 2008 This was then picked up in a Slashdot story.

Dr. Horrible

I never watched Buffy... but I guess I really am a huge Joss Whedon fan. I love Firefly and it's movie (Serenity... but you knew that right?). Well Whedon's latest work is three short acts of comic genius... Enter: Dr. Horrible at http://www.drhorrible.com/

Racism in America?

Racism in America? Surely it's worth talking about in light of Obama Vs. McCain! It turns out I have another friend who has recently published a book. Check it out!

Larry's new book...

I haven't read it yet, so I can't write a review. But, Larry's blog entry announcing his new book has some very good points regarding Christians (and others) being open minded enough (my words not his) to accept that things around them happen because of God.

One small teaser:

"... as soon as they are confronted with an experience that doesn’t fit into the neat little frame of reference they have for God and all things spiritual, they are quick to dismiss or deny the experience or event as being from God."

Division of labor?

Dealing with an outsourced payroll and a very large HR department (read as: Money problems) has me thinking....

"A division of labor is a multiplication of people without responsibility."

I guess we'll call that the "Rude labor equation". I'm sure we've all seen this fundamental equation rear it's ugly head on tech support phone calls!

Picture pages, picture pages.

This is not me. This is a picture of me. A very small picture of me.

Blog? We don't need no stinkin blog!

Apparently... THIS is a blog.
