Program Announcement: I'm Moving
September 1, 2011
I've dropped some hints in the past that my relationship with ScienceBlogs would be...altered. Well, I've decided to leave. Mostly, it had to do with the issue of pseudonymity, although I'm very excited to hang out my own shingle once again. I don't want to rehash the issue of pseudonymity,…
Note to Unions: This Is Not How You Build a Coalition
September 1, 2011
The old saw that 'we hang together or we get hung separately' is a perfect description of how the left has disintegrated into irrelevance. Too often, groups will focus on modest gains for their own narrow constituency, while selling out other allies. Over the long term, each component of the…

Meet the New New Math, Same As the Old New Math? What We Can Learn from Finland
August 31, 2011
Recently, The New York Times published an op-ed calling for curricular changes in K-12 math education: Today, American high schools offer a sequence of algebra, geometry, more algebra, pre-calculus and calculus (or a "reform" version in which these topics are interwoven). This has been codified by…

Comments of the Week #7: On Education, the Skies and the Stars
"All speech, written or spoken, is a dead language, until it finds a willing and prepared hearer." -Robert Louis Stevenson It's been another wonderful week in the Universe, and there's been so much to share together. New this week on the main Starts With A Bang blog over at Medium, we've talked about: Are our students doomed to an inferior education? (For Ask Ethan), The greatest album covers as…
I'm ready for my close-up
I'm getting a bit peeved at all this new technology. Why, back in the day when I was doing electron microscopy work, I'd spend days slicing up tiny fragments of zebrafish embedded in epon-araldite with an ultramicrotome, and I'd end up with hundreds of itty-bitty copper grids that I'd put in the EM one by one, pumping the chamber down to a good vacuum and scanning and focusing and taking pictures…
Weekend Diversion: Painting Animals to look like other Animals
"Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?" -Pablo Picasso As an animal lover, like others here on scienceblogs, as well as a big fan of Halloween costumes, it's probably unsurprising that a good, creative animal costume will crack me up. Three more turtle dogs and a giant rat will complete the set! Turn your sweet, harmless puppy into the fearsome…
