What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The starlings are amazing. I saw that video a few days ago and my mouth dropped open.

I thought it had to be CGI. I couldn't believe it.

P-C, did you know that two of the Moto chefs are on Top Chef ChicagoTexas? One of them did that freeze dried parsley something or other in a challenge already.

Oooh. Jen and I were just reminiscing about the crab cake the other day.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

An entire genus of mammal goes extinct.

IO9 says there are 400 left.

Good god, why can't this guy understand that hidden columns don't go away, and the people we're submitting it to aren't idiots. They'll understand (ESPECIALLY IF WE TELL THEM) that there are hidden columns in the spreadsheet. The unhidden ones are the ones we need on the website. The filtered rows are the ones we want on the website. Der. I am not sending them the same spreadsheet twice. I refuse to treat them like they're stupid.

Because books.

When do I get my reward? I kept three girl (7, 11, and 12) busy ALL DAY with no TV, and did laundry and blogged and went to the bank and washed dishes.

My pony is going to show up anytime, right?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Earlier today, about 15 students and alumni were protesting in front of the administration building, many of them calling for Paterno to resign. Now, there are about 200 students in front of Paterno's house, rallying to show their support for him and protect him from the media.

Is the call for his retirement based on him knowing what this other coach did? (I haven't really been following the story.)

Yeah. He knew back in 2002. He followed his legal obligation to report it to his supervisors, but when his supervisors did nothing (for which they're being charged, because they had a legal responsibility to notify the police), Paterno didn't do anything either or follow up on it, even though he knew that the other coach was still working with kids.
