My latest story is out, here. [link] In some ways, I still prefer my original concept, but I thought y'all might want to read it.

Jane Espenson was interviewed on PRI's The Sound of Young America today, talking about Caprica. [link] specifically: The Sound of Young America

There's a spoiler for the pilot plot towards the end of the interview, but they give a loud and long-ish warning. It was followed by The AV Club on overlooked dark comedies. Good listening for a weekday afternoon on the way back from taking my mother to a doctor!

A short post on Grist on the implications of a New NREL study on wind potential for transmission costs for new renewable electricity. Spoiler: bottom line is that with lots of renewable energy transmission costs drop compared to a little renewable energy. [link]

Thrive to spite them

My sister in law, Tracy Turpen, is a photographer specializing in weddings and fine art portraiture is doing a fund raiser for Haiti now through the end of February.

She's set up a gallery of her fine art photography, mostly landscapes of Hawaii, New Zealand, Australia and Costa Rica and 100% of the money will be donated.

You can view her gallery here - [link]

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I have a lot of old (last couple years) Nat Geo, New Scientist, and Scientific American magazines that have to go. Anyone want them?

eta: And they're gone.

Hi everyone.

I joined after meeting several of you thru the wedding reception weekend here in LA. I am working on following the discussions... I think the key is to log in more often.... Forgive me if it's a lot of lurking and not so much posting for a bit here :)

And yes, I have many bunnies. They are cute and fuzzy and get into lots of trouble....
