Some of the most dynamic, earnest, and thoughtful hardcore is being made right now—check out the Daniel Striped Tiger show at WHRB on Oct. 20 for proof. While the historic importance of 1980s hardcore to underground music is profound, the suggestion that the “Golden Days” are gone and that hardcore music will never be the same is characteristic of the punk rock orthodoxy’s attitude that is killing the scene today...
...their subject and rigor rather than on a strict interpretation of relevance to society today. The report defines Analytical Reasoning to be a set of “conceptual skills” that include “logic, statistics, probability theory, and rational decision theory.” Proof-based math classes, however, do not count on the grounds that “the sort of analytical reasoning used in math proofs” doesn’t necessarily apply to the real world. While the language of higher math may not be applicable, the rigorous logical structure these classes...
...rogue scientists could praise and criticize research in an unfair, un-objective way. But copious empirical evidence indicates that open online communities—including those dedicated to scientific research—have an incredible capacity to self-regulate.Russian mathematician Grigori Perelman’s recent online publication of a proof of the Poincaré conjecture—a century-old question of fundamental importance in topology, the solution to which won Perelman a Fields Medal—is an iconic example of the unlimited possibilities in open online science. Perelman’s proof never underwent the trials...
...housing quandary is unlikely to sway enough voters away from Chavez to give opposition candidate Manuel Rosales a genuine chance at beating the heavily favored incumbent in December. The protesters outside the ministry are proof that widespread popularity of the government's social development programs that provide cheap food and free health care outweigh most anger over housing.

These dumpy fat thirtysomethings really love this music, and they truly believed that they were the greatest band in the world. Right now, it’s painfully obvious that they?...
