my guess is TLE was referring to the release of Blueprint 2. Or 3. Or maybe that masterpiece with Linkin Park.

Mayim is trying to dress for Hollywood while trying to live an Orthodox life. So, maybe cut her some slack.

Domes are actually quite efficient material-wise, and given the need for high ceilings, also very structurally sound. Double domes are therefore quite practical, as well as being fun to look at.

This is the exterior of the museum.

I wonder how this finding affects the "TRex: predator or scavenger?" debate. Presumably this should decrease their speed estimates...

thinking? or hoping?

Here's another way of getting rid of being annoyed by the Newsstand icon: download the Guardian app. Every day you get the ENTIRE paper, edited for your iPad. Free until January. Effing brilliant.

So true! Asimov's cloud theory is a great metaphor for the social sciences!

You bring up a really important point, one that's often lost in the reporting of science on blogs. These claims are made based on stats using the mean ratings over a big group of women (+1700). And not everyone gives the same rating. But this kind of science has to generalize at some level in order to say something…

Agreed. Much as i want to view coding in the same sort of glossy limelight of creation that is now associated with blogging and media development, the devices most attuned to the cloud celebrate consumption above most (but not all) actions. Its a point made very well before by Brian Chen in Wired:

The lead picture doesn't do a whole lot to eschew the negative associations put onto the pentagram...

While cloud computing is an important conceptual leap for how we store content, I don't know if it's valid to see it as the future of all computing. This being a gadget blog, I'm sure there are at least a few programmers that might find it a bit dubious that the cloud would make the "file system unnecessary". Who is…

Comixology! Actually, i don't know if they're planning to transcribe Unexpected to e-comic format. Anyone?

Nobody has shown a significant effect of ass size on attractiveness ratings (i think all the studies that have tried have been conducted in Europe). A cool study titled, "Determinants and Consequences of Female Attractiveness and Sexiness: Realistic Tests with Restaurant Waitresses" looked at this, in relation to…

The study certainly doesn't disprove the allure of the side boob—ratings were just as high for all views. Its just that the ratings didn't differ between the douche and non-douche men.

128 men.

Some things of note, from the paper:

Highlighting his inopportunely timed words is journalism, but calling out a Jobs critic for being strange and misguided in the title is brand journalism.

I'm sure i joined a half-dozen other paleontologists in groaning when i saw the word "touch" in the lead. Erosion, please.
