Teach An Old Dog New Tricks

As researchers heavily involved in fine-tuned subject areas, it's sometimes behooves you to learn something new. Below are three ways to find out about other science topics.

For example, maybe you need a refresher on Wind Chill. Or do you know about the physics of sandcastles or the origins of Hoodoos?

Science File
Listed as the internet's "most comprehensive science reference website" it includes Book Reviews, Science News Feeds, Articles, Forums, Events and more. Members can also submit book reviews, add items to the science events calendar and submit sites to the directory.

ScienceResearch.com
Deep Web federated searching that includes blogs, wikis and more. Over 300 authoritative science and technology collections, including science.gov, e-print network, can be searched simultaneously

ScienceIQ.com
contains high-quality, enjoyable, science education. The site includes "fascinating and engaging science facts daily and brings a focused approach to online learning. We've avoided trying to be an all-inclusive web portal and bring you a focused and targeted learning environment."

"S" is for Spring and... Severe Weather

What's Happening Now


Severe Watches/Warnings
(NOAA/SPC)

Spring is, for some softer souls, about budding bulbs, frisky squirrels and visions of warm days ahead. For others who live in the Plains, and those who have waited months with nary any tropospheric excitement, spring is really about Severe Weather.

Need More Info?

For those that would rather not risk a face-to-face tornado encounter can become a volunteer NWS trained weather spotter. It's free, it's fun, and you don't need a meteorological background.

Math Is Your Friend - Don't Fear The Rhomboid

Find X cartoon
"The mathematical sciences particularly exhibit order, symmetry, and limitation; and these are the greatest forms of the beautiful."
- Aristotle

My high school AP Calculus teacher, Dr. Pappas, used to say that math is the most important skill one can acquire because every job applies some form of math. Despite our class's constant eye-rolling, he would kindly suggest that it would be in our best interest to at least minor in Mathematics, "You'll always be able to land a job with a math education". All I wanted to do was score well enough to place OUT of some math in college.

I sometimes think of Dr. Pappas when I'm trying to calculate simple math in my head. He was right. Everyone can use more math. Everone can use more pi(e) too: piei * pi = 1 / pi which is much less pie than I'd like.
